It's a weird one. HTML does have a TITLE tag. But it's supposed to go in the HEAD. The BODY does not have a TITLE. Any word processor uses something called a Title (and Subtitle) at the top of your document and then things Heading1 for sections. HTML originally didn't have dedicated tags for this; just h1-h6 (because surely six is enough for anyone).
So you get this weird off by one error that arises from the notion that HTML just lacks essential tags. So you use H2 to mean Heading1. Because H1 is reserved for the title. Never mind about sub titles. Not a thing in HTML.

Mostly this is because Tim Berners Lee probably didn't think this one through properly decades ago. And it was never really fixed. These days you can just invent your own tag names and style them of course. Which is a useful trick that is a bit underused. The structural semantics are nice for things like accessibility, SEO, and a few other things but otherwise HTML is a really poor choice of a format to exchange structural information. You generate it from other formats preferably. Writing it manually is a PITA. Even if you are a developer. Things like Markdown exist for a reason (and perpetuate the problem).
How much do you think you would need to implement in the language before you can write the Shard compiler in Shard?

> There's very high taxation of high income individuals (60%)

55.9% *, at highest bracket. And when you get there, you usually have means to have at least some of your income as capital gains, which is uniformly taxed lower. I.e. you don't become a high income individual, you become an owner of profitable family business.

Edit: I said originally, "55.9%, marginal", but that was wrong. Corrected.

How to play:

1. scattered throughout the level are flagpoles with two-letter names on the flag

2. you are given a list of numeric coordinates which are locations to a subset of the flagpoles, in the format (map section)(xx.xx)(yy.yy), as well that of as your starting point

3. the objective is to navigate to those coordinates to record the two-letter names of those flags. A UI will open when you walk up to each flag asking if you want to fill in the answer.

4. you are given a map with the corresponding xy grids delineated, place the mini flags according to the given coordinates to help locate yourself on the map. (remember that your starting coordinate is given to you as well)

5. the game ends when you have filled out all of the coordinates' corresponding two-letter names, at which point the correct answer will be revealed for you to compare.

It still cannot be a crime. Laws against it are just nurturing this environment.
It's quite sad what's happening in America. But all of us stood in horror as the UK voted for Brexit. Possibly the most purely xenophobic and reactionary public policy catastrophe made by any European country since the end of WWII. It's also true that as whimsically blundering and stupid as the current US government may be, they haven't gotten around yet to the kind of micro-managerial protectionist rackets that every local council in other Anglophone countries use daily to harass and fine businesses.

So as someone who selects and manages tech stacks for companies in America, would I recommend right now transitioning to a cloud outside the US? As a political statement, maybe, (though it would be pretty pointless). I'd do it if I thought it would be safer in the long term, but there are very few countries I would choose to entrust with my customers' operations or their users' data, anymore than I trust the US, and the UK is certainly not one of them. If I'm looking for true privacy, I'd probably pay the extra and go with dedicated servers in Norway or Switzerland.
If you find yourself with a scripted language where processing HTTP requests might be too slow or unsafe, I can still see some utility for FastCGI. For most of the rest of us, HTTP won, just write little HTTP webservers.

Without serious development effort, I would expect using an existing web server with FastCGI is faster than writing your own web server. It is also more secure as the FastCGI application can be run as a different user in a chroot, or a namespace based sandbox like a docker container.

The indignation in this thread and from OP is ridiculous, especially when all the ire is aimed at Firefox, who are doing the same thing all browser makers do.

When you are changing the very fabric of the whole web, rolling things out in a gradual, controlled way is paramount. Not just because people can find and report issues before roll-out reaches 100%, but also because browsers collect telemetry on features and how they work in the wild that can be used to gauge the effect.

You have to consider the target audience, they believe German culture gets erased because a discounter sells chocolate bunnies as sitting bunnies instead of Easter bunnies while the leaflet is full of Easter named articles and Milka sells its chocolate bunny under the name Schmunzelhase (Smiling bunny) for decades.

In these circles, false quotes have been repeated as true again and again for years.

A simple “satire” in the article would not have been enough, but it would have had the same effect.

> could not deliver the same scale, international coverage and breadth of features that AWS could

Amazon's biggest superpower is their ability to convince customers that they need the scale, international coverage and breadth of features regardless of the reality of their needs. Being on $BigCloud is a signal many small companies are sending to show they keep in step with the times. The real needs could often be addressed in simpler, cheaper ways.

Your car doesn't do everything a road vehicle can do. Your software doesn't do everything a software could do. Why would your cloud provider need to offer everything a cloud can offer? It's that "nobody got fired for choosing AWS" even if any future move is a prohibitively expensive redesign of everything.

How would you restrict the existence of unicorns?

Also refrain from personal attacks on this site - you don’t know my understanding of freedom and denigrating me doesn’t help your argument.

Edit: my implicit argument is that restricting unicorns while sounds nice on paper is that the net benefit of an implementation of that is net negative - not that absolute anarchy is the solution.
> randomly selects snippets

This is much less than the faults in intelligence of generative systems. (E.g.: "make the visuals for the movie M as if created by director D" - which can result in a formal exercise without the depth that director D would have brought.)

The sequence of the editing is of course an artistic process which represents an intelligent intention - a deliberate choice with grounds.
> the latter is the common sense.

Common to whom?
Regarding "there is little magic", Poettering repeatedly praises socket activation in his blog. It's not a new idea, but an old one that fell out of favor because it kinda sucked (remember xinetd?). It's about pretending that a service is running when by providing its listening socket, then starting it when the first client connects.

It has some problems: it's more complicated, it can actually slow things down compared to starting a service as soon as possible, and it has new error cases because of course "pretending that a service is running" doesn't have exactly the same effect as actually having the service running.

When tariffs on goods are effectively doubling the price, that creates an incredibly strong incentive to smuggle and otherwise subvert customs. The result is poorer import control overall and a windfall for organized crime.
It sounds like more the former then, which I do agree with.

I'm not sure why we care about the degree. Employers care about the degree, but they aren't paying for my education.

The students who want to learn, will learn. For the students who just want the paper so they can apply for jobs, we ought to give them their diploma on the first day of class, so they can stop wasting everybody's time.

No, it's just you and yours.

IDK, maybe there's a secret conspiracy of major LLM providers to split users into two groups, one that gets the good models, and the other that gets the bad models, and ensure each user is assigned to the same bucket at every provider.

Surely it's more likely that you and me got put into different buckets by the Deep LLM Cartel I just described, than it is for you to be holding the tool wrong.

Looks like this change only applies to literal <h1> elements, such that <h2> ... <h6> still preserve the old behavior. If so you can just use the <h2> tag in section-like contexts in place of the older <h1>, and get the same or a very similar outcome.

In a mobile world, IP of a given device can vary for so many different reasons that it is simply not a practical, reliable data point for long term tracking.

Otherwise, fingerprinting probably wouldn't exist.
Go's preferred way would probably be something like compute the aliased operations on the line(s) before, then reference the final values.

E.G. Adapting https://github.com/golang/go/issues/34174

f := 123.45
fmt.Fprintln("value=%08.3f{f}") // value=0123.450
fmt.Fprintln("value=%08.3f", f) // value=0123.450
s := "value"
fmt.Fprintln("value='%50s{s}'") // value='<45 spaces>value'
fmt.Fprintln("value='%50s'", s) // value='<45 spaces>value'

The inline {variable} reference suffix format would be less confusing for situations that involve _many_ variables. Though I'm a bit more partial to this syntax with an immediately trailing %{variable} packet since my gut feeling is that special case would be cleaner in a parser.

fmt.Fprintln("value=%08.3f%{f}") // value=0123.450
fmt.Fprintln("value='%50s%{s}'") // value='<45 spaces>value'
If he's unhappy about mastodon.social, he can move elsewhere. He should. Moving ought to be made easier - he has a point there.

Nobody in the Fediverse can prevent you from posting what you want. But everyone can choose to band together in groups around shared policies and prevent you from imposing what you post on them.

Some users are unaware of which policies they opt into when they pick an instance, and that is an issue (and why moving ought to be made easier).

My experience is that while it makes discovery slightly annoying - a single user instance is the nicest Mastodon experience. Anyone who blocks your instance then is doing so because they're blocking you (don't share that instance with noisy bots). For some it might make sense to have an account on a major instance too, to check in for discovery, and to follow their own single-user instance account to kickstart some visibility (and it's a flaw that it is like this - Mastodon does not better discovery functionality).

Mastodon is by no means flawless, and to grow more it will need to fix a lot of them, but a lot of the purported issues are seen as features by users. E.g. the ability to band together and purposefully isolate but allow limited federation, is a feature.

An extreme example is a pair instances for a marginalized group where one of them federates with the rest of the fediverse, but the "inner" one only federates with the other instance. It's on purpose set up that way to provide a safe space for those who want limited exposure.

People have a right to choose not to associate just as they have a right to choose to associate.

Others have already mentioned why it is grounded in reality. Call your ISP, Indian picks up. You are being scammed? Probably an Indian. It is not racist, I have nothing against Indians in particular, but the trend is there and it is quite obvious, hence, reality.

If I replace "reality" with "truth", it does not work out because it makes no sense: "truth cannot be racist" makes no sense whatsoever. In relation or correspondence to what? It does work with reality, however.

Your statistics are cherry-picked.

The USA has demolished more sovereign states and continues to participate in mass murder, as it has done, since it illegally invaded Iraq on the basis of outright lies and murdered 5% of its population.

Note that the PSR report I quoted earlier was 10 years after the war - the situation has gotten a lot worse since, due to the use of DU in civilian areas.

The USA is by far the worlds biggest war crime-committing nation. No other state comes close. To be ignorant of this, is to be complicit in its continued criminal behaviour.

Haha, did you evaluate this personally?

I did a BeMyEyes test recently, trying to sort about 40 cans according to the existance of a deposit logo. After 90 minutes of submitting photos, and a second round to make sure it doesn't lie too much, I had 16 cans which according to BeMyEyes (OpenAI) had a deposit logo. Then, I went to the shop to bring them back. Turns out, only 4 cans had a logo. So after a second round to eliminate hallucinations, the success rate was only 25%.

Do you call that reliable?

You mean, it's been implemented in such a way that no politician can be blamed when things inevitably go wrong due to what this really is: savings on the budget of one organization, pushing the costs somewhere else as opposed to actually improving society/economy.

I've always wondered this about the many algorithms that keep getting used. They're being kept out of democratic decision making. It's always a committee somewhere in the executive that decides on the algorithm, not parliament, or any kind of elected board. They are implemented as a cost control.
ActivityPub is reasonably lightweight, though it could be trimmed down. Mastodon is not particularly.

But we likely will see it become easier to run Mastodon-compatible-enough single-user instances with improved discoverability sooner or later.

Content is already signed. The problem is that with Mastodon, the user does not control the private key unless you run your own instance. You can demonstrate that the content originates from a given instance, but not from a given user. That's an issue, but it's fixable.

The feedback loop is Firefox's "report broken site" in the Help menu. Success is there are no reports about broken sites due to this change, or the breakage is minor -- differently sized headings and different margins on some pages is expected and is acceptable. Sites becoming unusable is not acceptable.
One question I continue to ask myself when I see impressive AI examples like this, (because it is impressive) is "are we solving the right problems"? Instead of training an AI to produce a tonne of JS to create something that's been done before, should we not be engineering better tools to allow people to precisely craft software without the need for AI.

I worry that because we are now able to instantly produce a bunch of JS to do X thing, we will be incentivized not to change the underlying tools (because one, only AI's are using it, and two AI's won't know how to use the new thing)

I worry this will stall progress.
The origin of the energy provided by hydrothermal vents is the internal heat of the planet.

The reduced substances, like elemental hydrogen and hydrogen sulfide, are produced by the oxidation of the iron(II) ions from volcanic rocks, which is converted by water into rust.

The volcanic rocks contain this more reduced form of iron, because they come from higher temperatures, where their constituent minerals are in chemical equilibrium. When the volcanic rocks reach ambient temperature, the volcanic rocks are no longer in chemical equilibrium with water. This source of chemical energy powers the hydrothermal vents and the associated life.

So the conditions for the appearance of life are an internal source of heat in the planet or satellite and some form of volcanism that can bring substances from the hot deep interior to the cold surface.

Was FCGI ever common outside of PHP?
I don't understand <header> to be a heading element (i.e., a section title). Instead it is a semantic container for heading elements: title, date, author, maybe category/tags, etc. To me, the heading level used inside a given <header> is a distinct, somewhat orthogonal thing (at least in how it is decided, from the nesting level or the tag name).
