Nvidia Weaves Silicon Photonics into InfiniBand and Ethernet
It's presented as an alternative to youtube for current Framasoft members and users.
It's meant to be understood as “Don't put faculty course videos on youtube, which you can't necessarily rely on if the subject is sensitive, put it on your college or association's PeerTube server.”

Framasoft is originally a non-commercial association of French academics. They have no desire to replace youtube for music videos, unboxing and Minecraft lives.
Rhodes must fall: The legacy of Cecil Rhodes in the University of Oxford (2023)
That sounds like pretty arbitrary borders you are setting: I don't really see much difference between stuff happening West of Vienna and East of South Korea too (one of those countries has a president who basically tried to stage a coup, and now are back in power ignoring any rule of law).
theVerge article says the DGX Spark will cost US$3K, about the same ballpark range as the Framework desktop with the maxed out 128GB RAM option.

Exactly, why pay taxes at all? We can just print the money. /s
Only letting Apple Watch have this functionality is what is wrong. It's clearly anti-competitive, in my opinion their hand-waving about security is just that.

They could implement something that works for other smartwatch vendors, they haven't because they don't want to.
the Netherlands (and most of the European countries) has the skills to build nukes and ICBM in 6 months if it wanted to. The tech is 80 years old at this point.
Whatever your profession is mate but I hate to break it to you the 6000 series is usually 20% slower in gaming performance than the best consumer card of the generation.
> and you have a perfect formula for monopolizing a market without continuously improving the tech.

...but the Apple ecosystem has the best tech. M chips, AirPods Pro, Apple Watch, iPad, Pencil, I mean the tech is great.

Apple isn't monopolizing anything. They're competing like hell and winning because their tech is best. The real question is why the Android and Microsoft ecosystems don't do better at improving their tech. Where's the Windows equivalent of an M4 MacBook Air in terms of performance and battery life?
I quoted it for specificity. I suppose I could have said "the word formerly known as suicide" but that is probably a phrasing that anyone young enough to unironically use the word formerly known as suicide wouldn't understand.
Just keep in mind that a heat pump will often be 300-400% efficient at adding heat. This is 100% efficient and for once that's not actually very good.

Except that the whole problem of WHOIS, that RDAP is solving, is that a WHOIS response an unstructured plaintext response, that's entirely arbitrarily formatted according to the whims of the TLD manager.

Ever tried to parse WHOIS data? You literally have to write a parser per TLD.

And things get even more stupid when you start talking about WHOIS records for IP ranges. Then you have to write a parser per IP-range delegation — starting at IANA, and working recursively, all the way down to the individual ASN. Where you have no idea how many delegating parties are going to be involved — and so get their own step in the chain, formatted however they wish — for any given IP address. (Ask me how I know.)
The author of this article was also the CEO of Beeper. They did just that and released an iMessage client for Android in December 2023. Apple proceeded to ban users of that client, launched a smear campaign against the company and implemented countermeasures until Beeper gave up on the whole endeavour.

Apple has lots of options at their disposal to frustrate any attempts to reverse engineer their APIs, and have shown they're willing to go above and beyond in defending their walled garden. If all else fails, every Apple device newer than 2018 has a secure enclave and verified boot, so they could just enforce an encrypted channel between the enclave - which will be able to attest that the device is running latest iOS or macOS with all DRM measures enabled - and iMessage servers. The only reason they don't do that already is the number of users on older devices, but that number gets lower and lower each year.
I created the talently: a hiring assistant to find App Developers in a tap
Hey there, I’ve been tangled up in finding developers pretty much every day, and I want to share the story of how I made the talently Chrome Extension, trying to solve my own headaches. I built it for myself at first Chrome Extension.
Flashlight apps were a 3rd party innovation. Apple didn't originally realize that the camera's light could be used that way. I wonder how many other useful features don't exist today because of Apple/Google's greed prevent a truly free smartphone market.

I had the same experience. Eventually I think the next time I'm going to try something extremely simple, like a button that triggers some pre-recorded noise.
How is that enforced as it was billed as certificates are not valid unless published, yet it is obvious certificates for a private CA are not being published and are treated as valid?
A good time to check how Trump's Crypto assets are going ... You know, the untraceable virtual money that can be transferred back into real money. NOT to say that a person like that would be transactional.
This is probably true, but unlike every Nvidia product we tried, it did, you know, reply to inference requests with actual output. That said, you can serve vLLM with Ray Serve. https://docs.ray.io/en/latest/serve/tutorials/vllm-example.h...
I agree with this, for good Minesweeper players (my record on expert is around 55 seconds) a rate limit of 3 per second is low enough that it feels frustrating and glitchy. I think I averaged approximately 5 clicks/second on vanilla Minesweeper, but presumably with higher peaks. I imagine at launch you're getting more curious first-time players, but your community would likely gravitate towards more experienced players over time.

A simple suggestion to encourage more fair matchmaking without building a big system for it is to have separate Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced boards, and let players self-select.
What was his degree in? The article doesn’t say.
If the comment had said "the five most powerful people", I wouldn't have quibbled with it. But the overlap between the richest and the most powerful is not perfect, and the rich people outside that overlap are gonna be pissed.
I'm somewhat surprised they are not explicitly mentioning the networking capabilities. There should be two QSFP(?) ports but they don't mention if their speeds and supported protocols (possibly not just Ethernet but also infiniband, but probably not).

Could be 2x200 Gbit/s, could also be much less.
What's happening in China is slightly different. For the non-excluded population, there's generations now who do not have brothers, sisters, cousins, aunts or uncles. Add on top of that selective abortion for the male preference, and no social safety net, and you've got the most interesting sociology experiment in history.

Japan, Russia and Italy aren't being forced through it by an authoritarian government, but are rather experiencing ennui at a social level.

America is the same, though immigration helps hide the problem. I have one sibling. My parents had six each. Their parents had between 6 and 12.

The rapid expansion of the last two-four hundred years is definitely slowing down throughout most of the world.

Yes. I am more upset by the one responsible for the filtering than the effect it's having on the zeitgeist.
> If I trained a model exclusively on Warhol art, and then had that model create new images in Warhol's style, I didn't do any of the creative work and probably don't get the copyright.

If I watch exclusively Warhol images for years and then paint something similar I get copyright.

There needs to be a gray are, because usually art is not done in a vacuum?
"This requires that you have Go, Ruby, and the rake Ruby gem installed." - sticking to the binaries then :) Cool little project, will try it tomorrow!
I had a pebble and the limitations of the device drove me insane. I don't care if my smart watch has 30 days of battery, I care about what it does and that I can do the things I want to do on it. The Apple watch has wifi and celluar and I can do tons of things on it without my phone around. Many of the apps I use have essentially full apps on device which allows me a lot more freedom from my phone and flexibility with my watch.
Nor is it a chiplet, in which case it would qualify as "in-SoC".
You can't run a business based on dictionary definitions.
Nope! I would not.
You would make a contract with a copyright assignment.

The monkey situation is kinda screwy of course because ... a contract with a monkey?

"No copyright" as a result in the monkey case seems like a technically legally correct but sad outcome.

For AI tools it's likely currently technically correct as well, but the law probably needs some updating.
Not in Texas, it’s most often ruled upon based on income expectations.
it depends on the courts. the law is simply complex and still vague.

Almost every part of the iPhone is also based on acquisitions. Android was a bad BlackBerry knock off before Google acquired. Android as it exists today is mostly Google.

YouTube and even AdSense were based on an acquisition.

Heck, Apple as we know it today was based largely on the Next acquisition.
The author of the article chiming in here...

I agree with you. This is the real ultimate truth:

> "For the advice to stick, you have to address the root cause which is the emotional, not the informational need. Otherwise, you're going to see the same well meaning advice go around in circles with only a minority of the field being motivated to act on it."

The emotional trauma is the real thing you need to address. Still, many people in the tech industry are not yet ready to go deeper on the emotional part, so you need to help them go there using skillful means, which means meeting people where they are.

A piece of informative advice is not completely helpful, but it can trigger the curiosity that people need to go deeper into the emotional realm.
WiFi and Cellular are avialble on the smallest of apple watches. I don't care if my smartwatch can go 30 days between a charge, none of that matters if it can't do what I want it to do. I had a pebble back in the day and I thought it was useless as it was such a limited device and it sounds like they want to replicate that experience. I'm happy the people that want such a device are getting it, but I don't get the appeal and want a device that can do thing.

This is why the only Apple device I'll buy is a MacBook Pro, and even then if they wall it off as badly as their other products I'll reconsider.
I would say curation and editing are much more important than creating the art itself, but that might be a very unpopular opinion.
> ...but the Apple ecosystem has the best tech

You aren't in any position to make that call, since you have no opportunity to try competing products due to being locked in to an anticompetitive ecosystem. European iOS users will soon be able to decide if Apple really does have the best tech or not.
I love TUI tools but I'm not too familiar with Golang, now I am thinking I should start looking into using go for TUIs

this is a great tool!
That's not the problem Apple was trying to solve here.

I suppose I could see a system where every camera/screen recording access by QuickTime Player forces a popup, because you can't say whether it happened intentionally or due to opening a malicious video file, but that would have to be opt-in for sure.
I was furious when Windows 11 decided to update, displayed something like "You're almost there", and then added a Copilot icon to my taskbar. The opposite happening now is next level.

Windows quality has really gone downhill. They should reevaluate the positions of various decision makers.
India is quite big. Any Indians around here want to comment on whether these shenanigans are common there? I have the impression they're not but maybe I'm wrong.

Talking about India, Lex Fridman interviewed Modi [1] recently, worth a listen or read.

I'd consider cert pinning malware behaviour if it rejects the certificates explicitly trusted/installed by the user.
I worked with this particular "team", in this exact position, for over a year and I cannot recommend strongly enough against it, especially for someone that has just regained their mental health.

Those two people should not be in a supervisory role over any other engineer, ever.
I degoogled my life out of principle—that one was about privacy. I feel strongly about this one too (in fact I just migrated from kindle to kobo for similar reasons), but where else is there to go? Some rooted android phone with Google play services disabled, where lots of apps aren't available and it's a struggle to get everything to work? (Genuine question!)
As an ultimate service to newsboards all over, dang should consider writing a book at some point distilling all his thoughts, practices, advice, lessons learnt.
If you don't need a discrete graphics card and want maximum battery life, LG gram laptops are totally worth a look. I could easily write code and develop all day without plugging in at all.

Yes that qualifies as "stuck behind valhalla" for me. Valhalla... truly is Valhalla. Will we ever see it?
This article is completely missing the point (as intended). DOGE has nothing to do with money or "efficiency".

It's a pure ideological dismantling of the Federal government aimed at eliminating oversight, regulations, assistance and entitlements as envisioned by ultra-conservatives for decades.

This isn't speculation, it's specifically laid out in their published plans: By hobbling or outright eliminating federal agencies responsible for executing the laws passed by Congress, the administration can circumvent the democratic process and impose their extreme vision of limited government on the country, regardless of popular support.

The U.S. system of government relies on established norms as much as it does law. Conservatives realized that they can ignore precedent with impunity if they had an executive willing to do so. They then spelled out exactly how, and are now enacting that plan.

SCOTUS's most recent decision that only Congress can hold the President legally accountable means executive power is essentially unchecked if the legislature is unwilling or unable to Impeach and convict. This decision turbo boosted the conservative agenda, since the president can now also confidently ignore the law and judicial orders as well, knowing there is little to no legal risk.

DOGE is just the first of many similar efforts to come to permanently alter how our country works modeled on the right wing worldview.

(The fact that all this just so happens to benefit Russia after their decade long campaign to destabilize their opponents in the West is a topic for speculation.)
What are you talking about? I can try all the competing products compatible with Android and Windows. I'm not locked into anything Apple because they're not a monopoly. I am very much in a position to "make that call".
Nvidia announces "Rubin Ultra" and "Feynman" AI chips for 2027 and 2028
>They don't benefit though! This is bad for them too! Elon Musk is way poorer today than he was on inauguration day.

If the end goal is to become authoritarian shithole, then no, he isn't, as the government he captured will be buying teslas and space launches from him at a price he sets, quantity he (co)decides and quality that nobody oversees. That's a pessimistic take.
Since the popular narrative completely ignores population for the most part in the: impact = population * pollution/intensity rate per person relationship. Since no one want to discuss active limits and we would rather have limits as second order effects of other policies. Calling out a comment for just mentioning growing population is a bit weird.

Since world fertility seems to be dropping, it is unlikely to dominate in the future. Therefore, your summation of what we should be focusing on would be more correct. This hasn't always been true and it is still and important factor to keep in mind.
SIGBOVIK 2025: Call for papers
From the SIGBOVIK Announcements mailing list:

The not-yet-extended submission deadline is March 23rd. Everyone is
encouraged to submit, regardless of affiliation, discipline, rationality,
or goodwill. Authors of accepted papers are encouraged (but not required)
to give a five minute presentation of their work.

Submit your papers here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdKa_012z-wuT3F1Gxl...

For those not in the know:

SIGBOVIK is an evening of tongue-in-cheek academic presentations. If we
have a goal, it's to poke fun at our fields and provide a venue for silly
ideas with (often, but not always) serious executions. SIGBOVIK has both
published proceedings and live talks, and everyone is welcome to
participate. All subjects are welcome, although our audience is primarily
made up of computer scientists. The best way to get a feel for SIGBOVIK is
to look at our past proceedings, which you can find at https://sigbovik.org.
Wonder if this is a nationality thing? In the UK I'd say ~30% of sales are done via phones/watches these days.
Then it's TDD that I have a problem with.

My main challenge is that I don't know what to call the tests I write, or the process that I use. Calling them "tests" can be confused with manual testing. I usually call them "automated tests" but it's a mouthful and not a term I hear from other people.
Damn I need to look into whatever else they were testing
Found it! I linked the wrong video. The correct one is https://youtu.be/1CsRF3XLRLg, and you can find the info around the 14th minute.
I default to Go for code I want to run on old MIPS and ARMv5/v6 appliances because despite the "huge" binary sizes, cross-compiling is done by setting 2 environmental variables.
Would this mean that ILM / Pixar will be unable to copyright their AI-generated movies?

Assume that they generate the entire movie in low poly count with flat shading, enough to properly prime an AI to generate incredible-looking movies. It simply cannot be true that they would lose the copyright to it just because they immersed it in AI.
I want to credit "writing automated tests" with the good results that I get from that practice. The problem is I need terminology that's widely used by other developers.
Which apps use private APIs ?

The App Store process automatically checks for them and blocks submission.

Curious how apps are bypassing this and not sure why they would be trying to prevent debugging when it's not possible to do this.
My initial response to this was to think of all the artists who don't actually create their own work. Lots of contemporary artists have assistants that do the actual painting, sculpting, installation, etc. Even way back a lot of masters were credited for work that was done by apprentices.

But, then on the other hand I suppose that in the eyes of the law, a monkey can't legally sign a contract agreeing to pass ownership over to the person 'employing' them as an assistant.

It's a strange grey area though – Warhol's whole thing was how the factory made the art. People have been making generative art for decades before AI came along, and as far as I know – and I went to school for Art and studied Art History pretty extensively – people just said, "oh that's a cool way to call ownership and authenticity into question." But generally nobody doubted that like, Damien Hirst is the copyright holder of his works even if an assistant makes it – and even if they have no formal piece of paper that lays it all out.
In Germany at least, code written by AI is not copyrightable, it's in public domain, as we were briefed by a lawyer recently. This is a huge issue if you are writing software for a customer and agree to transfer all rights to him (happens sometimes), because you don't own rights to AI-written code and so can't transfer that.

There are nuances, so if you create a macro and then that macro writes something but it is completely determined by you then it should be ok.
Business administration.
Not the least contrived situation, but I could imagine an inanimate object object falling from a shelf during an earthquake (a bonified 'act of god') which enters a 1 or 2 letter prompt and generates an image if the AI interface window was left open.
This is great. I was an OG backer in like 2012(?).

What affect are tariffs having?
Look, it is very difficult to hold a conversation with someone who responds with "you're just a fanboy, it's 5!" to "2 + 2 equals 4".

On the off chance you are making an intentionally inflammatory reply - you could also ask normally.

Let me try one last time (and now I vaguely remember having similar conversation here before).

On Ubuntu:

sudo apt install dotnet9

On RHEL (8 or 9):

sudo dnf install dotnet-sdk-9.0

On Alpine:

sudo apk add dotnet9-sdk

Then, you can get a simple cross-platform application template like this:

dotnet new install Avalonia.Templates && \
dotnet new avalonia.app -o AvaloniaExample && \
cd AvaloniaExample && \
dotnet publish -o build -p:PublishAot=true && \
./build/AvaloniaExample

The above can target: Linux, macOS, Windows, WASM and with some caveats Android and iOS (although I would not recommend using Avalonia for mobile devices over e.g. Flutter).

The build folder will contain the native application itself and the Skia dynamically linked dependency alongside it (and possibly some symbols you can delete). This is very similar to the way Qt applications are shipped.

This is just one GUI framework. There are other: Uno Platform, Gir.Core (GTK4 + GObject libraries), SDL2 via Silk.NET, Eto. I'm sure there's more.

What is bewildering is you could argue about "first-class" or "subpar", etc. But "does not work at all" is just ridiculous and indefensible. What kind of thought process leads to this conclusion?

In any case, I doubt you're going to read this since your replies seem to indicate interest in tilting at any windmill with ".NET" label on it instead, but at least my conscience is clear that I tried to explain this to the best of my ability.
You are right about not prentending this is a “both sides” issue, but for the wrong reason. There is only one side. Two colors but one side. When the blue team is in power, it somehow fails to do all the things that its voters want. It is meek and pitiful. Because it is not serving the blue voters. It is serving its backers and its backers want what the red team wants. So when the blue team is in power it magically fails at everything. Whoops! I guess blue team people are just ineffective liberal losers. When the red team is in power it does whatever it wants, because what it wants publicly is what their backers want.

Charisma in an acting context is different in that it adds another ball to juggle, but it's still a mostly-reactive exercise. Stella Adler's "acting is reacting" is an adage for a reason, and without that foundation, a person will not be perceived as charismatic even if they "act charismatic".
