It's not cognitive dissonance, or bad faith. Of course.

If you let Harvard do "merit-based hiring", they'll move a little in the direction of actually complying with employment law, but not much. If you institute a regime such as the one that existed for race and sex for decades (i.e., if you don't have "enough" black people, you need to show how your recruitment pipeline means that's necessarily the case, like not enough get the required type of degree), you'll get much better compliance.
Missed opportunity to actually server the UI via the webserver in first place, as we used to do 25 years ago like with IIS Web management UI in my default browser.
Happy to see Ada still gets some interest outside of MIC. When I went off to university, I was a Perl snob but my school used Ada as its primary teaching language. It was a great way of expanding my knowledge across the horizon to understand the value in strong typing.

After nearly half a century, I still don't have ASCII memorized either but usually just use asciitable.com to do a quick lookup. Having a system utility like this one would be handy in situation without internet access. Plus like he noted, it was a good way to learn more about Ada.
Science Communication in the Age of Artificial Intelligence
Nice, I like the colored output tables. Started tinkering with a small profiling lib as well a while ago.

https://github.com/gurki/glimmer

It focuses on creating flamegraphs to view on e.g. https://www.speedscope.app/.
I wanted to use std::stacktrace, but they are very costly to evaluate, even just lazily at exit. Eventually, I just tracked thread and call layer manually.

If I understand correctly, you're tracking your call stack manually as well using some graph structure on linear ids? Mind elaborating a bit on its functionality and performance?
Also proper platform-independent function names were a pita. Any comments on how you addressed that?
It's dangerous because of post colonialism and earlier post structuralism is in its basis.

That philosophical school sees truth as being a fantasy and subservient to power.

Therefore it is common for an adherent of post-colonialism to believe a statement is true if it was made by a person arbitrarily considered oppressed, while the same logic might be false if made by an 'oppressor'.

As this approach makes all science to be political effort before a discovery effort, it was highly successful in the highly political environment of the academics, as it also has highly favorable economical results for its followers. (New departments, ability to religiously outcast the old, new postions)

The problem as it reaches the hard sciences, for example the religious sacrifice each ML paper needs to make to the gods of ethics, is that it assaults the very notion of truth by its very essence. It is easy to see why this is highly problematic for mathematics
We're talking about going from 2.3% to maybe 13%. And this isn't a reflection of attitudes among people who are potentially employed there, it's a reflection of overt, rigid filtering on the basis of political beliefs.
It looks nice and friendly, but for developers I can recommend exploring caddy[1] or nginx[2]. It's a useful technology to have worked with, even if they're ultimately only used for proxying analytics.

Easy. No one knows this but In science and therefore reality proof is impossible. Proof is the domain of mathematics and logic.

But disproof is possible in reality. It can be done by a single counter example.

So if I’m wrong about your experience. Why don’t you lay out a single example in web development in your experience where what I said is utterly incorrect because I literally cannot even imagine a counter example.

One counter example is all it takes to disprove my “bet”. Even better if the example is extremely common. But this is up to you to you decide if you want to debate this. I’m certainly willing to tell you about my entire experience and all I’m asking for is a single counter example from you.
It’s amazing how not only can you decide what others can and should buy, you can also decide the quality of that item for them sight unseen. You should reach out to TV producers - this skill would be very entertaining in a show!
Speeding Up Python with Rust and No Prior Knowledge
There is no reason to expect any particular number of universes. We've observed exactly one, this one, which had to exist or else we wouldn't be here to observe that it existed.

Our universe is finite, so although it is unbounded (lacks edges) there aren't an infinite number of anything in it, galaxies, stars, M&Ms, grains of sand, atoms of hydrogen all finite.
Just go sports.
De facto yes. This is what essays, particularly "diversity statements" are for.

Also, if you're an academic seeking employment, your work and professional connections will make it clear.
man, I couldn't think of anything worse - except maybe dynamic types
I was one of the people who briefly tried to take right wing “free speech” arguments at face value, eg when Elon Musk bought Twitter. Almost instantly he began allowing white supremacists and actual declared neo-Nazis back onto the platform, while kicking people off for any speech he didn’t like. I don’t think the claim “the recent right wing enthusiasm for ‘free speech’” does, in fact, selectively benefit Nazis and white supremacists” is actually wrong when you evaluate the effects.
So how "over time" do I need to wait until I start paying the same tax rate as a billionaire? Seems like your solution to "the rich pay less tax" is "well, everyone should just be rich then"?

> I don't believe there's any major harm in using Github for most projects.

Actually there was one mentioned in a different post. You're at the mercy of Microsoft (and random US sanctions) not only for your project, where you have a copy of the source and are the canonical source for further updates, but also for your dependencies.
Yeah, it's quite disturbing that the differential entropy (unlike the discrete entropy) depends on the units. Even worse, the differential entropy can be negative!

Interestingly, the differential KL-divergence (differential cross-entropy - differential entropy) doesn't seem to have any of these problems.
In my experience, you kinda get used to other people's mindset and after a while it becomes second nature to look for their mistakes or to understand their approaches.
similar thought if you were running a sport franchise as a GM and saying imma make a team where every player is swappable except of course swapping lebron might not be all that feasible :)
> OK, burning is happening right now

Nowhere near it, the hand is hovering near the fire - people are shouting "don't put your hand in the fire" and the kid is saying its nice and warm and see nothing bad has happened, I am going to put my hand right into the fire and it will be great.

Trump term 1 they bailed out the Farmers for 20bn when they messed around on tarrifs and blew it up. They learn't that there are only two outcomes to fucking around 1) you win, 2) you find out and they give you 20bn.

If those are your outcomes the only rational choice is to vote for Trump and cheer him on in fucking around as much as possible.

Let them burn their hand.
>what else would you like to bundle in the init process? docker compose as well?

You can complain that you don't liken systemd's design or that it does too much (very overplayed complaint, but ok).

But that's an orthogonal point to the initial complaint you've made that it's somehow bad that this requires systemd to run.

That complain is moot, since you'd be running systemd anyway, with or without those containers. And it's double moot, because you can run > 1 containers (with podman) without root too.

(It's also wrong that systemd was added container compose capabilities - podman is what translates things to systemd "speak")
Most of those were not built through the wholesale theft of IP at the bottom of the business model. Let's be honest here. As much as I'm an adherent of IP being an abomination, Microsoft, Google, OpenAI, et al crossed a very bright and vibrant line. One they had no small part in painting. While even the most hardcore piratical mofo could motivate themselves to avail themselves of liberties they may not necessarily be socially granted for a personal project, these companies, who were the people to make a big deal in the first place that IP should be commoditizable, took it the extra step and decided to unethically turn around, and build a business off it.

You can have a change of heart. Nobody says you can't; but you don't get to go back. In that sense, I say that guilt on usage of an AI is warranted. There was a way to get there, properly and these people have admitted the only reason these things exist is because they so broke the rules of ethics wholesale. I will not reward anyone for that, and consider any work product reliant on it as indellibly tainted.

The technology I have no issues with. The manufacturing and sourcing process I absolutely do. It was taken, not given and even worse, it isn't given back, but sold back. That's not okay. Consistency matters. If we're just going to ignore rule of law, then all I've really got left to work with is shame. And one who lifts the public good, without asking and erects a tollbooth and cash register around it, is one worthy of being shamed.
Maybe they will have to transition from Base 26 counting to Base 64!

> probable free trade deal

> And then you also have to pay shipping.

Spoiled americans :) I've always had to pay shipping from anywhere outside my country.
I feel it's dehumanising to expect people to provide free work and hide their lived struggles. There are trans people contributing top notch code to the community - I don't want them to feel like they have to hide their existence and the ongoing persecution of their kind and produce apolitical code just because it makes some people uncomfortable to see somebody else suffer.
Shoot, I was expecting to see a hacked blue light special.

Home Alone 2 director says he fears he will be deported if he cuts Trump cameo
You hardly need more than a simple script to just run a generic benchmark tool. But to measure performance of your code and figure out what needs to be tuned, I don't think LLMs are there, am I wrong? They can't understand the code they generated well enough to make small adjustments and improve the benchmark score. For a dev to do that on LLM generated code, it would have to understand the codebase as intended by the LLM at least.
Beyond ensuring adequate cash flow, they need to be 100% focused on getting 18A shipping in volume as soon as possible rather than financial engineering stuff.
I feel like you can just replace liberal with Capitalist and you don't need the quotes.

They're trying to retain their audience because you know, cash. And making the far right fascists angry by calling them autocratic, authoritarians who will deport them, would cost money.

No need to make this politics. At this point it's basically capitlism against authoritarianism. "Left" doesn't exist as a viable political position right now.
I've encountered pay machines that only accept cash twice in the past couple of years in rural areas and was surprised. Like you, I thought they were long gone, but I guess there are still some out there. Those ones did have stickers on them (fortunately!) directing me to one of the fleet of pay for parking apps out there, which I used. Not being familiar with the area though, I had no idea if the app I was being sent to was legit. I didn't even think about it, I just thought "oh, yet another parking app I need to download" and went ahead.

Contactless is easy - but there's a far higher cost (each machine needs to have connectivity etc). Plus it doesn't let you extend remotely, which is something I use very regularly. I guess from a user perspective that's a benefit, but from an operator perspective it's a potential downside - would I pre-pay for more parking if I couldn't extend? Probably. But would I potentially park elsewhere, for a car park where you pay on exit, thus removing that revenue from them entirely? Possibly. I guess it would depend on lots of factors, and my one-person study is perhaps not the most reliable data!

I agree that they are becoming ubiquitous because they are cheaper for operators, but I don't think that this is the only reason: I do think that they genuinely offer greater utility than a pay at machine with contactless option.

Interested to know what you mean "monitoring is already done by ANPR" because this is not my experience where I am based. Do you mean street based parking, or in car parks?

For the street based parking where I am the traffic wardens have a tablet that shows them the make, model, registration number of the vehicles parked in a particular area, and generally make their patrols on foot, so I'm not sure there's any ANPR being used. I guess there could be CCTV cameras cover exit and entry points to particular locations, but in European countries and the UK I'm pretty sure that there need to be notification signs that your registration plate is being captured in that situation.
The administration has said they want to start gulaging citizens. They aren't going to do it randomly, it'll start with sure actual criminals, and then people they think you'll believe are criminals, but why would they stop there. What can a palantir-ICE collaboration do with this data. "First they came for the trade unionists" is halfway through the poem you know.
Really bad example if you ask me. Banks are literally the last institutions that will make a change.
A precise answer to that question entails more math than I'm willing to do right here in the middle of my Easter holiday. You should understand my argument more as a sketch of proof.

That being said I have a small correction. If you want to stream to two peers (that is you have a network with 3 fully connected nodes, one being the originator of the stream) and the link latency for all links is 20ms, then your lowest latency path to each node is exactly 20ms, as the originating node could simply send the content to each client.

The unfortunate realization is that 20ms is then also the optimal stream delay, assuming you care about the shortest possible latency for your live streaming service. The clients will therefore end up with the content exactly when they were supposed to show it, and therefore they would have no time to forward it to anyone else, lest that downstream would get the content AFTER they were supposed to show it.
> The US government has determined that the individual belonged to a gang.

The executive branch has made that allegation. The person didn't have a trial in the judicial branch.

Please look up "habeas corpus", and Article 1 Section 9 Clause 2 of the U.S. Constitution.
The article itself is also written in that kind of quirky meme personality tone. I guess some find it relatable and humorous. Others (like me) find it obnoxious. Matter of taste or perhaps of age bracket. This is the text version of "Youtube voice", which is also evidently successful but not all like it.
Altera toolchain was a tad nicer than xilinx as of 2020, just saying. Still horrible, but at least the IDE wasn't a laggy Electron abomination.
Thanks for the read, I learnt something about HOTP/TOTP today.

I would like to know why the clocks are all weird though - the numbers aren't in the right places. Were the images in this blog post "AI" generated?
at some point my take became:
if nothing orders the stuff that lies and flies around, any emergent structures that follow the laws of nature eventually break down.

organisms started putting things in places to increase "survivability" and thriving of themselves until the offspring was ready for the job at which point the offspring started to additionaly put things in place for the sake of the "survivability" and thriving of their ancestors ( mostly overlooking their nagging and shortcomings because "love" and because over time, the lessons learned made everything better for all generations ) ...

so entropy is only relevant if all the organisms that can put some things in some place for some reason disappear and the laws of nature run until new organisms emerge. ( which is why I'm always disappointed at leadership and all the fraudulent shit going on ... more pointlessly dead organisms means less heads that can come up with ways to put things together in fun and useful ways ... it's 2025, to whomever it applies: stop clinging to your sabotage-based wannabe supremacy, please, stop corrupting the law, for fucks sake, you rich fucking losers )
I'm not american so can somebody please explain me, how is deleting logs and every trace of your actions helping with government efficiency?
> Brexit literally just resulted in the UK having lower tariffs

That is, of course, entirely false. In that the UK does not, in fact, have lower tariffs, and even if that would be the case, there are many downsides that don’t have anything to do with tariffs.

> and a probable free trade deal with the largest economy on the planet

The FTA with the US has been "happening soon" for about a decade now. I’ll believe it when I see it. And with a protectionist American government, it would put the UK at a significant disadvantage.

> unlike our friends on the European continent

LOL. Nobody on the continent wants its country in the same position as the UK is. Brexit killed any political movement to leave the EU for a generation.
That's a fair assessment. If they're not shipping 18A in volume early next year they likely will end up getting parted out later next year.
That's definitely not what Brexit was and is about. Go ask a fellow british about that.
Nazis again? We did Nazis remember? End of the Third Republic, all of that? Everybody agreed Nazis were a bad idea, why the fuck are there more Nazis?
You haven't addressed my question at all. If you think estimating 1e-1000 is a problem, then estimating 1e+1000 shouldn't be. But one is just the inverse of the other. What's the problem with this argument, you haven't answered it at all.
I wonder how many lines of code you write in a day. Most PR I’ve seen has a diff in the lowe 2 digits, unless it’s refactoring or formatting.
> If a wifi password is required to make full use of the device, I will return it.

This is one of my favourite uses of OpenWRT, or any other firmware that gives you proper control over the router - for WiFi-networked IoT devices, I set up a separate wireless network with no WAN/LAN access and client isolation. I can connect to the device, but it can't connect to WAN, any other devices on the IoT network, or my LAN.

Of course this won't work for cloud-tethered devices, but many will expose their functionality directly over network.
The attack is being described as “sophisticated” but we can thank our (GitHub) stars that the exfil was a half-assed job that ultimately made only public repos vulnerable and made it obvious in logs whether a compromise occurred.

It’s almost like a grey-hat attacker trying to make the supply chain vulnerabilities more visible without doing major damage themselves. Almost.

Sadly stopped my subscription, when you removed the ability to weight my own domains...

Otherwise the fine-tune for your output format for technical questions is great, with the options, the pro/contra and the mermaid diagrams. Just way better for technical searches, than what all the generic services can provide.
Combined with "oops can't get them back" it's very powerful. Combine it with not advertising faces of snatched people on broadcast TV, and it's a very useful tool inded. People will just disappear. It won't be legal or illegal, just a thing that happens from time to time. Police won't search too hard for the missing people, because no good can come out of finding out.
Oh damn that’s awesome. That triple word score!
>Just to be clear, nobody was unclear about that

Oh, you were quite unclear. Also wrong in saying you need systemd with podman to orchestrate multiple containers without root.

>It is, just to be clear, red hat's recommended way to orchestrate podman containers despite having this nasty dependency analogous to the one docker has on a root service.

It's not "red hat's recommended way to orchestrate podman containers" in general. It's "red hat's recommended way to orchestrate containers on top of systemd", that its whole point.

Nothing nasty about it either, you'd already be running systemd on your redhat system (and many non red-hat ones).
Because it is obvious people will do transshipment.

Rode the Shinkansen twice in the last week (Tokyo<->Osaka).
Not the most scenic, but you do have a spot where you pass Mt Fuji.

Not sure if this route goes the full 320 km/h but it was plenty fast!

Loved the convenience and ease though. Having to schlep to the airport and deal with all the hassle of flying sucks by comparison.

Rock up to the station, buy a ticket, wait 30 minutes and go.
The disadvantage is that LLMs are probabilistic, mercurial, unreliable.

The advantage is that humans are probabilistic, mercurial and unreliable, and LLMs are a way to bridge the gap between humans and machines that, while not wholly reliable, makes the gap much smaller than it used to be.

If you're not making software that interacts with humans or their fuzzy outputs (text, images, voice etc.), and have the luxury of well defined schema, you're not going to see the advantage side.
They've already sent an innocent man there and acknowledged he was innocent, then refused to bring him back when the courts, the opposition and finally SCOTUS each commanded them to bring him back.

This was just a test, and it was successful. They can now disappear and deport anyone they want with no repercussions whatsoever. The GOP is a criminal organization and their followers share the responsibility of what happens next.
