> U.S. should be on Ukraine's side for moral reasons and could also benefit from the military technology they are developing

America is too busy Smoot-Hawleying itself right now. The power moves are in European capitals. (Probably not Brussels.)

If you're in the Baltics, Poland, Finland or Sweden, Slovakia, Romania or Bulgaria, you should be upping your defence production and buying Ukrainian arms. Co-locate production in your territory and let that be used to re-arm yourself and build for Kyiv.

It's a win-win squared. You get defence kit and production expertise. Kyiv gets resources. And you get someone else to blow up against Russia, thereby increasing the time until they can mount a credible threat against you.
For how much? In Europe they are in stock. For 3500€. For the MSRP, I'd buy it in a heartbeat.
Raw intelligence is just another tool in the toolbox. Sure, it gives advantage if used right, or massive disadvantage (often paired with ocd-ish behavior, general unhappiness since one sees more what a clown show real world often is and who often gets success).

Not ashamed to say - I am not anyhow special re intelligence compared to my most of my uni peers, I struggled with memory too, a lot of endless rota. I was lets say above average on high school and thats it, facing same memory & non-stellar intelligence issues. So I learned to work longer on stuff, learning, everything, not giving up quickly, simply more patience. Saw this already on uni - bright folks were so unused to putting in effort from high school (which they coursed through effortlessly), they hit literal wall on uni.

At the end, I left most of those peers behind professionally, financially and life fulfillment wise, some non-easy choices with long term consequences. A lot of folks jump to their comfort zones way too early and eagerly. I've had some luck too but luck is just wasted chances if not prepared to seize them and take some risks.

When one hits those few crucial moments in life when big-consequence choices are done (which uni, which job, who to marry, where to settle etc), stamina can mean choosing more intense path with rewards in future, instead of going for the easy and a bit safer path from step #1.
In Apple nomenclature, a private API is an API that your app is technically allowed to call, but that is subject to change at any moment and has 0 documentation and no backwards compatibility guarantees. If Apps were allowed to rely on those, they could just stop working across minor version upgrades or on new devices.

Those APIs are only there because they're needed by some higher-level system library that your app is actually allowed to use.

Sure, you could have all libraries be simple shims, all calls be interprocess, and all security be guaranteed by process boundaries, but that would kill performance.

If you only accept signed code and have W^X protections that apps aren't allowed to disable, this way is simpler, faster and just as secure.
Pretty much. V-Model is often executed as a BDUF process, but the model translates well into iterative processes.

Not OP... But here is the ADL saying being anti-zionist is a form of antisemitism: https://www.adl.org/resources/article/anti-zionism-antisemit...

You really have to bury your head in the sand to not see that being conflated in any media organization with ties to the ADL in their reporting.

Really disgusting way of sewing division.

They got in trouble for doing that stuff while having a monopoly on PC OSes. Using private stuff to give your own products an advantage is (legally) fine if you're not leveraging a monopoly to do it.
Actually auditors do allow you to face the reality of numbers.

Of course, historically speaking, kleptocratic conservatives and liberals then promptly ignore the auditors and keep doing whatever they please.

Now in this case, the kleptocrats are just cutting out the auditors altogether since they had no intention to face the reality of numbers in the first place.

The honesty and openness with which this particular group of kleptocrats approach the practice of their corruption is praiseworthy in a certain sense. /s
Homo Ludens and (Play) Metaphysics #2: Pippin Barr – The Stuff Games Are Made Of
It literally is an everyday occurrence. It is statistical fact. There are 340 million people in the USA. Tens of thousands of people lose and gain jobs every day. That is normal and not particularly unusual or cruel.

While the power dynamic of employment is uneven, if you wish for a company to never be able to let you go then you're also wishing for the hiring process to be far more difficult. If you wish for companies to have unreasonable processes involved in terminating employees, you're also wishing for extreme scrutiny in the hiring process rather than being able to get a job where employers take a chance on you.
draws from the same well, intellectually. terrifying stuff, that BM episode is, too.
I’m honestly not sure what your point, if any, is.
I used this all the time twenty years ago. Tried it out again for some reason recently, I think at the suggestion of ChatGPT (!), for some archiving, and it actually did some damage.

I do wish there was a modern version of this that could embed the videos in some of my old blog posts so I could save them entire locally as something other than an HTML mystery blob. None of the archive sites preserve video, and neither do extensions like SingleFile. If you're lucky, they'll embed a link to the original file, but that won't help later when the original posts go offline.

A database would be controlled by a single entity. It could be turned off, have it’s source code vary from what is advertised, or otherwise be manipulated. That’s obviously an incredible risk to security.

I’m not hinting at bet/prediction like applications, there are many uses for oracles aside from this.

Also prediction markets don’t have anything to do with meme coins.
You're already misremembering what actually happened - that he says that after two vigorous salutes.
The typsetting looks good. Balance is a matter of taste, unless you can really see the designer didn't have the eyes for it.

This design works, say I as a former freelance designer with hardcore typographers education.
I run Ubuntu everywhere except my Framework, because at the time Fedora was shipping a newer kernel that had better 12th Gen Intel support.

I formatted ext4 with LUKS because it's what I'm used to, but honestly Fedora has been great. Add flathub, a few gnome extensions (same ones I'd use in Ubuntu) and it's basically the same experience.

Without knowing what you're migrating I can't really speak to that. I use a pretty light toolset and heavily lean on remote dev (VS Code SSH extension).
Imagine paypigging a politician.
> They also don't make the Apple Watch compatible with Android, so they are also giving up their own access to a huge chunk of potential buyers (70% of worldwide smartphone users are on Android). So maybe we're missing something.

If smartwatches were an essential part of everyday life for the majority of people on the planet (or in <insert legal jurisdiction here>) as smartphones are then I would want regulation mandating interoperability there as well. As it is they are a relatively niche product so if Apple wants to limit the watch to their phones then I'm fine with that as I don't see it being a very powerful market distortion in the other direction.

> In your view, what would happen if only one smart phone manufacturer ever offered any watch integration API? Would that make all of the others (who don't offer an API) anti-competitive?

Only if those others have significant market penetration such that their closed API has the effect of harming consumer choice considerably in the smartwatch market.

> Companies are not obligated to deliver privileged access to their products. It's not a right you have to build a product off of someone else's product.

If you mean in principle, then IMO a sane legal system should absolutely confer some limited right to, for instance, build and sell software and hardware that runs on or interfaces with Windows. If you mean in practice, then it is absolutely a subject of debate in both the EU under DMA and the US under antitrust law:

> Connected devices are a varied, large and commercially important group of products, including smartwatches, headphones and virtual reality headsets. Companies offering these products depend on effective interoperability with smartphones and their operating systems, such as iOS. The Commission intends to specify how Apple will provide effective interoperability with functionalities such as notifications, device pairing and connectivity.

I had an OG pebble, it was a gift from a conference. An amazing product, more Apple than Apple in terms of making clear tradeoffs to provide real utility & design quality.

Reading this press release I thought -- they perfectly read the minds of the target customer. Retaining the spirit of the product and exceeding expectations with polished improvements.

Great job guys! I'm in

We are not buddies. And I am not confused enough to believe NSO Group would be interested in me. This is plain paranoia you are using to try to win an argument. Calm down. Besides, where is the competitive harm if you are so happy with your Android? Look, I am happy with Apple doing some basic things to make the device relatively safe. I know nothing is absolutely safe. And again, I am not high profile, and I am also not paranoid.

This is more like shopping for bread, selecting the bread you want, taking it home, slicing off a piece and being told you can't eat it since it didn't come from the right store.

It's all just software. You can download IPA files onto your iPhone, just not install them without an arbitrary feature-flag enabled.
Had a Jewish wedding and secular divorce, a few rabbis in the family on fathers side, went to Synagogue for a decade or so, haven't gone in a few decades. Don't really keep to most of the traditions. I'm ethnically Jewish and a big chunk of the family is also culturally Jewish with a smaller bit also religiously Jewish. Oddly the Israeli part of the family isn't religious at all (atheist) but follows more of the traditions because they live in a Jewish nation.
The honest answer is that other autocratic regimes, who were enemies of the US until a couple months ago, greatly benefit from this.

But it is bad for business, and once the entire business community in the US figures that out, I honestly do predict that this experiment in anti-Americanism is going to fail.

> ... security firm gets a chip on their shoulder, they can install a persistent backdoor on your phone...

But a random developer can't exfiltrate my data, which is the WAY WAY more common scenario that the previous poster was worried about.

I agree with them. The Apple App Store prevents a lot more malware than the ability to install ANY software. I like the Mac App Store as well, its a large library of software that is virtually guaranteed to be safe from infecting your computer with a virus.

Now, I know how to sideload onto my iPhone, I have homebrew on my MBP, but my brother/sister doesn't, my aunt can't, my uncle assumed his phone was facebook, and they are safer (from viruses) for it. Make installing viruses harder!

I spent decades as the de facto IT person in my family, and when iPhone and Android came around, family members started buying MacBooks, my load got lightened a LOT.
Some youtubers are posting their videos to Peertube based video sites, like makertube.net , tilvids.com , tinkerbetter.tube , just to name a few. Please share your favorite Peertube instances.
Sure, there are way less videos to choose from compared to youtube, but that leaves more time for productivity or for time away from the screen.
Thanks. This looks cool.

However, my issue is the need to introduce one more tool. I feel that without a single tool to read and write to Iceberg, I would not want to introduce it to our team.

Spark is cool and all but it requires quite a bit of effort to properly work. And Spark seems to be the only thing right now that can read and write to Iceberg natively with a SQL like interface.
>> that has been a pain point for recommending Fedora to newbies.

I've been running Fedora for 20 years and I still can't navigate that part of the install process. The combination of partitions and LLVM - which I don't need - and that part of the install setup... ooof. And try to reuse anything already on disk? I never can get it.

Thank God upgrades are seamless now so I don't have to use the installer.

BTW it's just the disk layout part I have a problem with. Everything else is great.
Love it and might even use it but is there any customisation options with themes/visuals?

That's probably another thing you could have over indiepa.ge

After a decade off the burner, the Dan Brown-alike reads as self-possessed, hard-boiled, and a little playful. I think his sin against literature was (like most celebrities) rooted in overexposure, not anything fundamentally wrong with his style.
Can someone just tell me: if I make an AI photo then do some tweaks in photoshop do I now have a copyright claim since I worked on this photo and it had no author?

If I use the AI photo as a reference to make a painting by hand it’s also my copyright since the original photo isn’t owned?

Er, I mean "capacity building" in support of "democracy" via hundreds of oxymoronic NGOs.

Anyway, that's where the majority of cuts are being made, and why we're seeing such pushback, including here.
The law you cited seems to only apply in cases where the owner knows their animal is dangerous and does nothing to prevent harm. It’s about negligence. What I’m suggesting is that if a person’s dog — regardless of prior warnings or known aggression — causes severe injury or death, the owner should face charges similar to assault or manslaughter, not just negligence.

Current laws often only apply in cases where the owner had prior knowledge of the danger. I’m arguing that severe outcomes from owning inherently high-risk dogs (like certain breeds prone to aggression) should carry more serious consequences regardless of prior knowledge.

And while sentences for assault and involuntary manslaughter may be similar to what I’m proposing (which I oppose because I feel that sentences for violent crimes should be far higher), the distinction is that I’m advocating for this standard to be applied to all severe cases involving high-risk animals, not just those where negligence can be proven.

So no, this isn’t ‘literally already the reality’ — there’s a meaningful gap between negligence laws and what I’m suggesting.

> it’s hard to understand how everyday people can use this platform

Because they are not platforms: they are software, free to use. Their audience is systems administrators, not users.

Either the user is it's own systems administrator, or someone else has to do it... And in any case there is infrastructure to be paid for. Most users currently prefer someone else to do it and the price to be the watching of advertisements.

I believe a sweet halfway point is hosting cooperatives - not free of cost, but delivering user-control at a reasonable cost to users who do not wish to take on the burden of sysadmining.

The court didn't rule that AI generated art isn't eligible for copyright at all. They ruled that only humans may be assigned a copyright. If you are a human that uses AI as a tool to create something, the door is still open for you to claim copyright as a human.

The court is ruling that computers themselves don't have the human right to copyright. Not exactly surprising.

Project Zero is about finding security issues, not about developing products to increase security.
It was initially created as a group inside of twitter. They spun it off into a separate company pretty early though.

Well, Apple will have to redesign their security model, then. If the iPhone relies on Apple's white-glove curation to stay secure, then European users are enough of a reason to overhaul their security model.

It's great that you know how to sideload, I'm not saying everyone has to know how. I'm arguing that the option should exist regardless of if you pay for a $99/year subscription fee. It should be a part of owning the hardware you paid for and purchasing the right to control it as the user.
By that standard, isn’t any cash I hold in treasuries also an accounting gimmick?

Mass layoffs are not an everyday occurrence. It wasn't an occurance 2 years ago. Let alone decades ago. "person got fired" and "entire parta of an industry are laid off" are entirely different scales. It's like treating a wildfire incident with a person's single home burning down.
It’s not just the transmission over Bluetooth. It’s the entirety of what happens with the message. Apple fully controls and trusts the code that’s running on the apple watch. But they have no control over what third parties do with all the data they can collect in notifications.

Bluetooth devices on iOS that display notifications already are getting more information than normal by simply even reading all notifications. Normal apps on iOS can’t do that, they have no reason to. This api was added because smart watches kinda need that functionality to be useful. I think it’s still locked behind a “this device will see all your stuff” permissions box.

I do think they should add in more iMessage/sms/replying capabilities to smart watches though. I think they are extremely hesitant to make it even easier to automate iMessages. iMessage spam is definitely increasing, but it’s NOT as prevalent as normal sms spam for instance. The barriers are much higher, and Apple can basically blacklist devices/appleIDs that send out too much spam, partly because they’ve kept iMessage so locked down.
