Barf coding?
Have you published anything about this anywhere? I also had to work on the SLEIGH file for the M16C.

Overall it just seemed like the processor definition for Ghidra needed more work.
Hm, looks like you’re right. It doesn’t require digital copies, but does set various lengths of time that the state has to hold onto things based on whether they keep paper, microfiche, or digital.
Thanks for this. I've been dabbling with code for ~20 years, have the diploma and the t-shirt, but I lack the mentorship. I feel like it would be even more helpful in this time as I attempt to pivot from my general-IT career with dev as one tool into solely development. So, anyways, thanks for sharing additional resources.
Ty! I wrote it for myself / to send people to when we encounter the same conversation loop haha
If they sell to (ex-)employees they sell to consumers. This then includes consumer warranties etc.

However what large companies do is to get an agreement with a refurbishing company, which will collect and refurbish them and and pay the corporation some share.

This works in some mix calculation - the well treated machines can be sold well, some machines can be used to reuse some parts and some machines are nothing but cost for disposal.

Is their philosophy a bit string? Or maybe this simple mistake of using a bitwise AND is what's gotten Mozilla's mission so corrupted these last many years.
>Additionally, I'd assume (based on being the most obvious solution) that Trump et al fully realize Waltz was both responsible for this screwup and would like to fire him for it

What did Hegseth mean by "We're clean on OPSEC"? Who was assuming responsiblity for the security of their communications?
People keep making the mistake of thinking there is no logical consistency to Trump policies.

He has an agenda.
> Are you over-engineering the shit out of every script to the degree the script itself is a Turing complete machine and with enough —-help flags anything is possible?

No. They're 30 line scripts with 0-5 or so flags. They mostly exist to remove choices from other utilities. Put another way: create named (and namespaced) abstractions by making choices and slapping a name on it. They're functions.

> In my experience, eventually a business need will arise that require you to change a script. Are your coworkers comfortable changing these scripts or are you in the mind set of “that’s a simple enough change, I’ll do it”

They're small enough that they can be ignored if they don't do exactly what you want. I'm fine changing them, but it's most likely they'd just get rewritten or bitrot after I'm gone.
Why Everything in the Universe Turns More Complex
At the moment, the automotive tariffs still stand and go into effect ... tonight? tomorrow?

Looks like they got cold feet on a blanket Canadian tariff.

But the whole process is so chaotic and subject to mood swings that I expect more holes and carve-outs than a block of PDO emmentaler.
While I generally agree, the slidge bridge for XMPP has been working quite well for me, especially whatsapp, but it is really new.
You should do it! Go Nacra instead of Hobie if needed but you should absolutely do your own version of the Worrell - just have somebody trail you in a motor boat if you need to feel more comfortable :)
I can't imagine what kind of talking points one needs to offer past "uh, we aren't criminals and we're not incompetent".

If the response is "yeah, we're good with those things, what else have you got?" I don't know what to say. You want bread? Maybe some circuses?

The Democrats did have plenty of policies. Realistic ones. Not the most exciting. If the public wants to be excited, and aren't picky about it, then indeed they should have that. But I'm not going to be able to provide it.
> Let me guess - if the authors did by 5 groups the results they got were not saying something they liked.

The main reason likely is that US race (treating Hispanic ethnicity as a race trumping nominal racial categories, so the other categories all are implicitly prefixed by “non-Hispanic”) is something like (in 5 categories):

59% White, 19% Hispanic, 13% Black, 6% Asian, 3% Other/Mixed.

Or, in two categories:

59% White alone, 41% Other

The two-group breakout takes far less data to get equal statistical utility for its smallest group when compared to the 5 group breakout (that's true even if you don't really care about the Other/Mixed catch-all group in the 5-group breakdown, but only the other four.)
This is what it became:

You say that, but Element X (Android & iOS) already lacks full support for the oldschool way. It only supports certain flows therein AIUI.
the problem is that running any sort of campaign that effectively reaches the continental and population scale of the US is incredibly expensive. Bernie Sanders for example raised $228M during his primary campaign in 2016. it would be hard to see how to make that happen more frequently.
It’s a bit amusing that so much ink has been spilled over what the definition of an “AI agent” is.

I don’t care. I care what your software can do. I don’t care if it’s called AI or machine learning or black magic. I care if it can accomplish a task reliably so that I don’t have to do it myself or pay someone to do it.

We had the same argument about 3 years ago when everyone started calling things “AI”. They use LLMs to generate text. Usually they have outsourced all of the interesting technical work to a handful of providers backed by big Web 2.0 companies.
FWIW I think AGPL is the right license choice for you. The more experience I gain the more I lean toward AGPL for products, MIT for libraries.
Constitutional? No, except that states run the primaries.

... but when the primaries are is encoded into state law, so it would be a challenge to change it for every state if one wanted to shift when "the primaries" as a whole concept are.
Trump supporters are unswayable. The same rule about negative stimulus applies. Nothing you can say makes a difference, but if they start losing money eventually they might change behavior. Or they radicalize further.

Ouch.
I suppose, but there is no such thing as objective morality, it's all subjective. That’s not to say people shouldn’t feel guilt or hesitate when evaluating their past actions, but we often act based on the best framework we had at the time.

Morality evolves, both personally and culturally, and trying to hold a static identity in the face of that change just leads to more internal conflict. It’s uncomfortable, yeah, but clinging to certainty for safety’s sake can be more corrosive in the long run.
Welcome! And also I am so sorry
Thank you for doing what you do! I'm sure it isn't easy keeping this place healthy and thriving, but me and so many others really appreciate the blood, sweat and probably a few literal tears it takes :)
There are also plenty of ways to set it up so the only thing the public can see is that the name exists; and you should probably be prepared for that to become public knowledge anyway (even if using a wildcard certificate), if only because there are so many ways for users to accidentally cause DNS leaks.

Using an ACME DNS challenge would be the simplest option if it wasn’t such a pain to integrate with most DNS services; but even HTTP challenges don’t actually need to expose the same server that actually runs the service, just one that serves /.well-known/acme-challenge/* during the validation process. (For example, this could be the same server via access control rules that check what interface the request came in on, or a completely different server with split-horizon DNS and/or routing, or a special service running on port 80 that’s only used for challenges.)

(I was thinking about this a lot recently because I had a service that wanted to do HTTP challenges but I didn’t want to put the whole thing on the Internet. In the end my solution was to assign an IPv6 range which is routed by VPN internally but to a proxy server for public requests: https://search.feep.dev/blog/post/2025-03-18-private-acme)
I have a different take on interior wall colors: any shade too far off from white actually darkens the room no matter the color.

Paint colors subtractively from light: you never get more light into a room when you're knocking out wavelengths rather then reflecting them. Whereas with whiter walls you always have the option of manipulating color by using colored lighting.
This looks awesome. Well done.
I run grep on Thunderbird's storage directory and it's significantly faster than anything Thunderbird itself attempts. (It also allows finding exact matches, fuzzy search without language "awareness" is disgusting to use.)
The states have laws when you can hold a primary but nothing in the constitution.

> Rooting for mozilla and their privacy-focused services. Been using the email-masking feature (generate forward email addresses) for a while and really like it.

I don't know how the privacy of this one will shake out, but the privacy focus on the browser includes allowing them to share your data, so that makes me way less enthusiastic about continuing my investment in their ecosystem.
The joke the previous comment is making is that Borges already wrote that story. "Pierre Menard, the Author of the Quixote."
Good afternoon!

I responded to your request last month regarding the data Engineering role. Did you happen to fill that role?
I have good reasons to believe this is hosted on Oracle's free tier. Apart from the fact that pinging pico.sh points to an Oracle IP, the 10TB limit is consistent with Oracle Free Tier's limit.
Architecture too. The worst building come from architects given a blank page to start with. Constraints, and sympathy for the surrounding built environment produce great work.

Yeah, absolutely.

Anybody talking about how much they like (or dislike) Nintendo's plan needs to compare it to the alternative which is "insane levels of scalping" and not some kind of mythical ideal zero-scalping world where supply precisely meets demand on day 1.

I am from the US and my understanding is that we are one of the only (if not the only) Western democracy that doesn't require photo ID for voting. We do, however, need photo ID or at least a Social Security number for pretty much everything else (applying for loans, opening bank accounts, buying a house or car, starting a new job, getting married, etc). The amount of things you can do without personally identifying yourself in some way is so small that I'm also not sure what additional power a Real ID gives to the government.
The entire financial industry got slapped very heavily for organizing things in secret chats after the LIBOR scandal. A lot of people regularly get training of what may and may not discuss under what channels.

Imagine maintaining a useful piece of FOSS and then Mozilla shows up and "pushes hard" for some feature they want for a service that's missed the boat by a decade and doesn't even elicit much hope from loyal users (including myself).

Didn't knew about this one. Thanks I'm looking into it!
Not quite. The point of permissive licenses is that you're making a donation to everyone. If private industry uses your donation fine, if not that's fine too. But it's certainly true that if you have a problem with private industry using something you freely gave them, permissive licenses aren't for you.
Category error to think there's a strategy. Trump doesn't even know what a tariff is. People try to project a strategy because it's probably too discomfiting to believe that the greatest superpower the world has ever known elected a complete nimrod king.
I loath the lack of vibrancy in modern design and fashion. So dull, so boring, so agreeable. Thankfully it allows people who do have a bit of personality to easily stand out if they want to. Still waiting a red MacBook pro

I don't have a problem with my dad's view that taxes should be low or that we should be responsible with the environment. I don't have a problem with his view that over-regulation is a danger. I don't have a problem with my dad's opinion that capitalism is great, even with my disagreement.

I have a problem with the fact that my dad votes for people who do not do those things, and then gets upset when people point that out to him.

He told me that "I think people just need to have more patience with each other and accept our differences" as a moral to a story he told about being a manager to trans and non-binary folks. IMO it's 100% the right take, and he holds no negative feelings for any trans people or nonbinary people.

Then he votes for the anti-trans candidate.

How do you square that circle?

The reality is that I know my dad's voting history (we have talked about politics) and my dad is not an idealist or a pragmatist or conservative or liberal.

My dad is a populist.

SEEKING WORK - Remote - A designer who can code!
I have 10 years of experience in Fin-Tech and over 14 years combined in Journalism, TV and Media, Health, Science, and more. I've worked for clients like JPMorgan Chase, Santander Bank, Rob Walling, Trello, Peter Diamandis, Syncthing, SimplyCredit and others.

I'm experienced in Vue.js, Django, Phoenix framework, Quasar to name a few. I pick up new tech easily and like working on complex products. Case studies are on my website: https://gilli.is. I can provide the following for you:

- Design — Whether you need a design from scratch, a redesign, or you're having issues with a small part of your product, I can design it.

- Front-end Development — I can build the design into a pixel perfect product. This is rare among us designers and has proven to be extremely powerful for the result since there is less wasted effort.

- Analysis — Your users, know everything that's wrong with your product but have difficulty communicating it. Often it comes out in anger and frustration. That's where my usability analysis comes in. I'll review your app from an outsider and expert point of view, and give you actionable feedback.

- Free advice — You might not be sure if I am the right fit, and I very well might not be. I can help you figure out the best direction to go for free.

I take my work very seriously and put a lot of work into excellent communication, proper planning, and, last but not least, properly understanding your product so that we can produce great results.

I'm on the side of free trade and dont think there is a single policy. The strongest arguments I can think of are:

1) raise tax revenue in a way that partially falls on foreign nationals

2) reduce trade deficits and foreign purchasing of treasuries.

3) Increase relative power if other economies are damaged more than the US. There are situations where zero and negative sum strategies are optimal, like war, where it is better to have a larger % of a smaller overall pie.

4) stimulate demand for us labor
What is that agenda?
I thought MSN was not owned by MS anymore, but turns out I was wrong. It's MSNBC that MS divested ownership in. MSN is still 100% owned by MS.

At least they aren't filtering out bad MS news on MSN I guess.
Yes. Outsource the manufacturing. We have important intellectual work to do like optimizing ad sales.
It's nice to see their reasoning, but the issue remains: Telegram can read most direct messages (because almost no one uses private chats) and everything sent in groups.

It's a good service and in some cases it can compete with Matrix, Signal, etc, but most direct chats and all groups have no privacy from Telegram (and anyone with access to their servers).
I'm not sure any literature on this beyond my own experience.

In the context of synthesizers, "buzzing" quality is associated with unfiltered basic waveforms: sawtooth, square, triangle (to a lesser extent), pulse (notably so). A sawtooth wave is used, for example, as the bass sound in Gorillaz' "DARE".

More generally, in my personal experiments, "buzzing" is associated with the presence of discontinuities in the waveform (i.e., the Dirac delta and its antiderivatives). Any discontinuity is associated with sonic energy at all frequencies, at a highly localised point in time. (See the Fourier transform of Dirac delta (anti)derivatives here [1].) Higher antiderivatives of the Dirac delta have progressively less energy at higher frequencies; beyond the 2nd antiderivative buzzing is not really audible.

Aside – a pulse wave is a series of Dirac deltas; a sawtooth is the 1st-order antiderivative thereof; a square wave is a series of sign-alternating 1st-order Dirac delta antiderivatives; and a triangle wave is alternating 2nd-order Dirac delta antiderivatives. Hence – buzziness in these waveforms.

The human ear has a Q of about 15 (very approximate) – meaning its response at any frequency lasts for about 15 cycles of that frequency. So, when presented with a periodic discontinuity (e.g. sawtooth wave), the sonic content below about 15 times the base frequency will tend to cohere together into a tone, while the sonic content above 10 times the base frequency will tend to be perceived independently of frequency – as a buzzing. (See Bell, "A Resonance Approach to Cochlear Mechanics".)

So, if you want to increase the amount of buzzing in a waveform, you can add localized "packets" of high-frequency sonic energy up to a rate 1/15 that of the lowest frequency content of said packets. You can experiment with this in Audacity by generating sawtooth waves of various frequencies (between 25-250 Hz, where buzzing is easily audible) and low- and high-passing them appropriately to separate the "tonal" (low-frequency) content from the "buzz" (high-frequency) content. Then mix and match the two from different frequency waveforms two create a waveform at your desired base frequency with your desired rate of buzzing.

Finally, a more pedestrian – and very common – way that the above is achieved is the synthesis technique known as "supersaw", by which a handful of slightly-detuned sawtooth waves are mixed together. Beside giving a "shimmering" effect which one gets from mixing any slightly-detuned sounds together, this also results in increased "buzziness". This effect is very common in pop electronic music. E.g. the bass sound in Lady Gaga's "Just Dance" is a good example.

The words I chose are specifically meant to highlight the downsides.

1. Groupthink has a negative connotation of the downsides baked in.

2. "Hyper" conformity (or hyper anything) is already saying that it is too much.

I think it's well known and appreciated that without diversity of thought and opinion, a group or organization makes possibly locally optimized, but poor decisions.

There are many, I think? Dang has mentioned other moderators (plural) before, I believe.
I actually agree, I don't think people should merely dismiss differences on issues that strike at core values -- I think it's okay to cut friends/family off on huge differences in values. I have actually done this to both left and right-leaning friends.

But what I'm arguing is that most people do not actually come to these values by way of thinking, but rather by blindly adopting them en masse from their chosen tribe.

And when they choose not to be open to the possibility they might be wrong, then they have a religion, not a intellectually-driven view.

This is okay if acknowledged imo, as per this sentence in the piece:

"If someone is self-aware enough to consciously acknowledge their choice to remain in the bubble, that’s totally fair. I respect it like I’d respect anyone who chooses to participate in a more traditional religion. My issue is when this view is falsely passed off as an intellectually-driven one."
So an “on-behalf-of” service is not an “agent”?
I think you and GP are saying the same(-ish) thing. A non-profit which has no money cannot continue, and so if it spends more than it takes in then eventually it will have to stop. This may be ok if it's part of the mission, or if they're hoping that a big donation randomly shows up. A normal business whose mission is to make money hasn't got those options.
Oh nice catch, I'll get onto that asap. Edit: This will be fixed in the next update.
