Yep, a great lesson, and a relatively low price to pay for teaching my kids the honorable act of civil disobedience.

Interesting, this reminds me a bit of TTS models that had poor quality training data inserting commercial jingles or background music into their output, although I would agree that in this case it sounds intentional.

Are we expected to know latin, or is this supposed to be a little homework assignment for us? Ridiculous.

I believe there is a kernel of truth here, but having used both the mainstream products and their "underdog" alternatives, this is completely counter to my experience.

Nokia is a bit before my time, but I've used both iPhones and Androids and simply cannot suffer iPhones anymore. There are so many features of Android that are impossible to replicate on Apple products. Even something as simple as blocking ads is a fool's errand on iOS. I make extensive use of third-party app stores, patching .apk files, and my device's filesystem. I laugh when iOS introduces a new features that's been included in Android for half a decade.

I've had to suffer many work Macbooks and vastly prefer both the hardware and (Linux) software stack on non-Apple laptops. The history of Apple hardware and OS X (sorry, macOS) is littered with blunders such as the touchbar, keyboard issues, and now Liquid Glass. Is a ThinkPad the holy grail of PCs? Probably not, but they've been a lot more reliable in my experience.

NVIDIA's Linux drivers are especially laughable. After years of wrangling their drivers, struggling to make sleep work, and getting X/Wayland rendering working reliably, at this point I can't bother. I simply disable any discrete NVIDIA laptop GPUs entirely and use the integrated graphics. It just works better and doesn't drain my battery. On a desktop I'm with AMD all the way.

I promise you, I have plenty of experience with both sides and I am most definitely not "suffering under inferior tech", at least not anymore.

Well that's what I don't get, how is spending the money bad faith? Aren't they getting the money ahead of time so they can spend it before the world ends? If they have to keep the world-still-here money tied up in escrow I don't see why they would take the deal.

I still don't get how this is supposed to work. So let's say I give you a million dollars right now, with the expectation that I get $10M back in 10 years when the world hasn't ended. You obviously wanted the money up front because you're going to live it up while the world's still spinning. So how am I getting my payout after you've spent it all on hookers and blow?

This is awesome, I got way more sucked into this than I expected. If you're open to adding more features, a "custom playlist" would be really cool. I'd love to drill myself on the Balkans or West Africa, for instance.

Interesting, thank you for the link. This answers a few questions I had about preferred country names while trying out the game, such as Czech Republic/Czechia, Swaziland/Eswatini, Turkey/Turkiye. I also found the partially recognized states curious, especially Palestine being reduced to "West Bank".

No it's not called supply and demand, it's called price discrimination. The way things should be priced is based on the value it gives the market as a whole. Anything further is an anti-competitive attempt to vacuum up more of the buyer surplus.

They have an option to do an ACATS to another brokerage account. They do not mention specifically, but it looks like this would be considered a stock transfer "in kind" which should not be considered a taxable event.

Sounds like 7% of revenue rather than profit. But I agree it seems weird to cap it at 7.

To quote Donald Knuth, "Beware of bugs in the above code; I have only proved it correct, not tried it."

Calling it a jobs program is overly generous. It's broken windows fallacy. Considering the ineffectiveness of the TSA as shown by multiple audits, opportunity cost of waiting in security lines, lost revenue to airlines, and increased road fatalities due to flight aversion, it's a massive net loss to the economy for no actual benefit to safety.

Is that on the ground floor of the neutral milk hotel?

I really hope this site doesn't become the next reddit. I don't think a massive influx of new users would be healthy for good faith discussion here.

Okay this part has me convinced this post is satire. The hackernewsiness is simply off the charts. As the kids would say, ain't no way.

Great writeup. It seems like a strange variant of the broken windows fallacy to imply that workers need to be shuttling to and from work and spending money on brick and mortar restaurants and stores. Of course remote workers will have extra spending money that's still going into the economy, whether that's delivery services mentioned in the article, local restaurants in their personal time, etc.

The risk of bricking isn't so bad as long as you keep a copy of the original firmware. If the patched firmware doesn't boot, you can always revert back.

Don't forget video games and rock & roll.

Hahaha, the issues are hilarious! A few examples:

* You can put yourself into disposals while dead

* Bullets rotate with the station

* Pulling doesn't know what newton's 3rd law is

* You can select wires hidden under walls and zap yourself with them

Where are all the mundane build problems and crashes? Their issue page is full of the type of zany interactions gone wrong I love to debug.

Hey now, you wouldn't download a car

Have you tried ChessX, and if so, how would you say it compares?

Reproducibility is what allows you to rely on other maintainers' reviews. Without reproducibility, you can't be certain that what you're running has been audited at all.

It's true that no single person can audit their entire dependency tree. But many eyes make all bugs shallow.

Reproducibility is necessary, but unfortunately not sufficient, to stop a "Trusting Trust" attack. Nixpkgs still relies on a bootstrap tarball containing e.g. gcc and binutils, so theoretically such an attack could trace its lineage back to the original bootstrap tarball, if it was built with a compromised toolchain.

Are there any recommended libraries for doing this, if I'd like to migrate my C codebase?

I believe breeder reactors can create fuel from U-238.

"I was so happy because it was the first time where we could see chess as a positive factor," he said. "We had so many years with chess being seen as potential destruction and something that could push kids to the dark area of psychological instability."

This surprises me, could someone expand a bit on this? I've only ever heard chess referred to positively in popular culture. I would assume most non chess players' understanding of chess is based on idioms like "thinking N moves ahead" and "playing 4D chess."

(I'm not sure I'd consider Beth Harmon a shining example of psychological stability either...)
