> it's a relatively cheap, "stealth" 5th gen fighter jet making use of integrated sensor input

Yes, and as I pointed out in my example, it's not something that existing MRCAs are able to provide (it's a bodyframe plus composites issue), but for most buyers (especially in Europe) it never made much sense for the threat landscape they are facing.

Portugal was already on the fence, as they were looking at replacing their legacy F16 Fighting Falcon fleet [0], and an F-35 would have been unneccesary spend for that kind of a use case anyhow - hence why South Korea (Borhame) and Turkiye (Kaan) decided to build their own comparable versions of the F-16, and others such as the UAE and KSA decided to go with the Rafale or Eurofighter.

You don't need to use ALIS if you are using an F35.

For example, Israel chose to roll out their own interconnect (B-Net and IAI+Thales+BEL's Datalink) that they share with France and India, and are using a replacement in the F35 Adir. You never saw Israel complain despite Netanyahu's government publicly despising the Biden admin, because Israel began their own attempts at indigenization after the US-Iran talks began back in Obama 1.

The European countries that do use ALIS are those countries that do not have their own domestic interconnect (Netherlands) or don't want to buy from their French competitors (Germany)

In my country one bank had a 2fa app. Then they backtracked on security, but kept policy: they included the 2fa in the regular bank app. Now you don't have to use 2fa if you are using the bank app, because the bank app generates its own authorization, in the same device (app) without user interaction!

Fake admiration off. We also don't have to use any 2fa when we access banking through the website. (works on FF on Android)
as there seems to be some confusion, this is my interpretation:

atop is (for some reason) touching memory of processes it monitors.

atop is touching this in an insecure way. An executable can cause atop to corrupt its memory.

this has high potential (although not guaranteed) for allowing RCE within atop via a correctly crafted process that atop monitors.

atop is often run in root, and so this otherwise meaningless RCE becomes privilege escalation, which is bad

either this is correct, or cunningham’s law will bring out the correct interpretation
This is correct, at present about 2% of people support taking over Canada by military force.

But the thing is there's a playbook. Even in Russia they didn't start by saying "We are going to start a formal war against international law, who is with me?"

1. They called Ukraine not a country.

2. They said Ukranians in certain regions wanted to be Russian, or should be Russian.

3. They cultivated politicians and figures of influence in Ukraine to join them.

4. They sent unmarked troops into limited regions and started a purported separatist movement. These were the little green men, actually Russian soldiers in generic fatigues.

5. They formally joined the fight once the separatists were losing.

6. They agreed to a ceasefire and kept violating it.

7. In 2022 they started a "special military operation" (still not a war!) on a pretext.

8. Now it's a war

The process took a decade. Currently the US has done steps 1 through 3. On a nearly daily basis the president and multiple admin officials call the border artificial, say Canada isn't a country, say we must be annexed (the word means taken against our will).

The US admin has cultivated the separatist leader of Alberta, who has made multiple visits to Washington and who has admitted to asking Trump to pause tariffs in order to help a pro US far right politician win the upcoming elections.

A journalist who is a fellow traveller of the movement has asked Trump about the practicality of starting by taking Alberta and Saskatechewan and then the rest of the country and Trump said taking Canada had to happen.

We also saw that after the Zelensky oval office visit US public opinion shifted about 20-30% against Zelensky in lockstep with the president making clear his opinion.

So I agree, right now the idea seems ludicrous. But the US admin is at the beginning phases of preparing the info environment to accept escalations. And any discussion of this online now has bot accounts parroting the same lines.

Frankly in Canada we're very glad at the domestic resistance to war. I'm not sure they can actually pull off getting support for invasion. They might think they need not go that far. But what's clear is that for whatever reason they do seem serious about taking us over; Canadian official have expressed as much.

Prewar, polls showed about 18% of the Donbas were interested in joining Russia. About the same percent of Alberta is interested in joining the US. It's enough to work with, if their narrative isn't actively resisted every step of the way.

There is no sha-256 in the C or C++ standard library either. A cryptographic hashing algorithm like sha-256 is not something that necessarily has to be in a standard library.

There's plenty of old modules in the Python standard library that hardly any one uses. But removing them would break backwards compatibility guarantees. The Rust project has decided that they want to keep the standard library lean. And this works well in practise, because cargo is a really good package manager.

This statistic could be misleading, because not all miles are equally dangerous. Google is very careful about selecting where it deploys and tests Waymo, preferring flat, safe, well-designed areas. Routing is also closely monitored and I would imagine that problematic roadways are avoided. The article says they compared it to human accident rates "on the same roads" but doesn't clarify their methodology for "same"ness. It also doesn't factor in driver experience. A taxi driver who has memorized a particular route is likely going to drive safer than a tourist who has never gone on that same road before. Waymo may be safer than the average driver on X road but that doesn't mean it will have the same comparative performance if you drop it onto a random road it has never driven before with no assistance from human support staff.
America has eight parking spots per car.

https://www.fastcompany.com/90645900/america-has-eight-parki...

> Parking standards were created arbitrarily, without adequate data. Zoning laws usually require one parking space per apartment, one per 300 square feet of commercial development, and one per 100 square feet for restaurants. For context, a parking space measures 160 square feet on average, plus additional area for driveways and driving lanes, so an eatery’s parking lot may be three times the size of its dining area.
Having done UI (and a raytracer) in non-OOP language during my curriculum, I can only strongly agree with parent. OOP is essential to do specific kind of work, including but not limited to UI.

I really hate it to be clear, I dislike the paradigm and find it sometimes difficult to understand. I hate the footguns, I hate inheritance chains. I tolerate mixins and interfaces. But I have to admit: in some cases, OOP is what I need , so I use it.

Not parent, but "Google AI" is overloaded - Google has a many AI products that won't be "Google AI". "Gemini" refers to a specific set of capabilities, which are a subset of Google AI efforts[1]. Imagine Apple developing a new, non-iPad slate and branding it the "Apple Tablet".

Granted, Google's AI strategy is still muddled, e.g. Gemini is maybe replacing Google Assistant in some scenarios, but I'm able to express my meaning clearly with Gemini in the preceding sentence, as opposed to "Google AI is replacing Google Assistant - which is Google's AI assistant"

1. Gemma, Flash, anything Google Deepmind develops would be Google AI products that won't fall under the "Google AI" branding
Totally armchairing this thought, but:

My understanding is that it's much more common for Europeans to live in or close to cities, or at least walkable neighborhoods, than it is for Americans; and I have this idea that Europeans often will get groceries more often, even daily, since they are often a short walk away. And European dwellings are typically more compact, so there's less storage.

The typical American experience is driving 20 minutes to a superstore (basically a huge warehouse with price tags on every shelf -- an order of magnitude larger than most European supermarkets), stockpiling food for a week or more in walk-in pantries. A month of food is not uncommon here. I think our family goes to Costco and Walmart every 2-3 weeks or so.

So maybe this preparation directive is more relevant to Europeans who typically have smaller dwellings (less storage space) and more fresh food on hand? (I envy it!) Because when I read it, I'm like, "Yeah, most American homes have this already."

Our family also has "go bags" that are ready with about 1 week of portable supplies (food, clothing, light shelter, etc) and a stockpile of food at home, with long shelf lives, in case of any number of events that may disrupt supply chains for months...
I wonder what would happen in the event of a disaster where I have these 72 hours of supplies ready, but my friendly neighbor has not.
>In what sense? I don't see how it tells you anything if you have the sentence "The cat ___ " and then you expect a verb like "went" but you could get a relative clause like "that caught the mouse". The sentence is interpreted deterministically not by what what follows after a fragment might contain but what it does contain. If you are more "surprised" by the latter it doesn't tell you that the process is not deterministic.

The claim isn't about whether the ultimate interpretation is deterministic-it’s about the process of parsing and expectation-building as the sentence unfolds.

The idea is that language processing (at least in humans and many computational models) involves predictions about what structures are likely to come next. If the brain (or a model) processes common structures more quickly and experiences more difficulty and higher processing times with less frequent ones, then the process of parsing sentences is very clearly probabilistic.

Being "surprised" isn't just a subjective experience here - it manifests as measurable processing costs that scale with the degree of unexpectedness. This graded response to probability is not explainable with purely deterministic models that would parse every sentence with the same algorithm and fixed steps.

>I have no idea what you are saying: calling grammar a "fiction" was supposed to be a way to undermine it but now you are saying that it was some completely trivial statement that applies to the best science?

None of my comments undermine grammar beyond saying it is not how language works. I preface 'fiction' with the word useful multiple times and make comparisons to Newton.

Some projects developed directly in AOSP. Those projects will now develop on the internal branch like the rest. So it's not as big of a change as some are making it out to be.
I wonder if you can decrease the impact of (2) with a policy of phased rollout for updates. I.E. you never update the whole fleet simultaneously; you update a small percentage first and confirm no significant anomalies are observed before distributing the update more widely.

Show HN: Shared AI chat experience
Hey HN,

I'm Akshay, and I love to experiment with real-time apps.

SparkPad is an experimental GenAI chat app. The twist is real-time collaboration: think multiplayer, a shared chatbook. Messages and streaming AI responses are live for everyone in the space. The prompt editor is also shared and synced.

I use it to create different spaces with custom prompts suited to a task, workflow, or project, keeping my chats scoped. It can also be shared with a team for a common prompt setup.

Tech details: Built with Yjs. Client-side AI API calls are routed through a designated host's API key. The only AI model for now is Gemini (because it's fast)

So, let me see if I've got this straight:

- India had been practicing slavery since immemorial times [1]

- Then, the British started ruling the place and after only 2 years in power they abolished slavery in all parts of India they controlled [2]

- Then the British left, slavery returned to India, and it's somehow the fault of the British it still exists.

This sums up quite nicely your argument, right?

Any time there is a detour, or a construction zone, or a traffic accident, or a road flooded, or whatever else your route data is not just "worse" it is completely wrong
TSV's big advantage is that, as commonly implemented, the separators are escaped, not quoted. This means that a literal newline (ASCII 0x0A) is always a record separator and a literal tab (ASCII 0x09) is always a field separator. This is the format many databases -- including Postgres -- use for text export by default.

There are some notes I put together about TSV a few years ago that expand on these points: https://github.com/solidsnack/tsv?tab=readme-ov-file#motivat...

I think it's unfortunate to just paint this as being a case of Trump being super powerful cuz money.

The reality is there's a dark thing at the heart of most people which tends towards an ethic of "might makes right", and holding government over the most powerful nation in the world and then explicitly propagating that as official national religion is absolutely seductive.

Americans -- like many others -- crave supremacy. Fate and fortune has given them some form of it, and they've been told their whole lives how they deserve it.

But they feel it slipping. "Make America Great Again" is just about that. Others must submit and we will be most powerful.
