No mobile support. I get that a desktop UI framework doesn't want to target smartphones, but I think iPads (and bigger Android tablets) can cope well with more traditional desktop paradigms.
Interested in this as well. I'm currenlty using Skia (through skia-safe) but I'd be quite open to try another renderer if there are performance improvments.
Many countries do not legally permit the extradition of their own citizens. In Germany, extradition is generally only allowed to other EU countries, which meant the German government’s options were quite limited.
I don't know, I don't think there are many open-source third-party firmware implementations for these kinds of chipsets out there, so it seems pretty well obscured.
I think often it's also a combination of what you described and big companies being super risk-averse. Why risk breaking regulations if you can just say no?
Then again, lots of Wi-Fi-enabled devices support simply changing their region setting and will happily let you use different Wi-Fi bands or increase signal power.
why not compile-time error for reading memory that hasn't been written?
so... like Rust?
To be fair, Git itself is a bit of a pain, and GitHub's main achievement is/was to make it somewhat bearable.
The changes have been committed and pushed to a branch of the main (Apache-licensed) repo, with the clear intention of eventually being merged into the main branch. So it’s hard to argue the code isn’t published under the same licence as everything else. Still, I think they should have created their own website.
Ugh... I guess legally it's okay (as the whole code including the website seems to be Apache-licensed) but the optics are not great...
Why does this feel like an LLM's attempt at satire?
...why? Seems pretty sensible to me?
If I set up my own authoritative DNS servers, can I still use DNS over TLS or DNS over HTTPS?
As someone who moved to the UK from abroad, it was crazy for me to see how unequal the UK is geographically. The main one is obviously the divide between London/everywhere else, but the general lack of infrastructure between places is wild.
On the other hand, the whole HS2 debacle is a great way to explain this to my friends outside the UK. Bizarre to think it was promised as a way to connect the north of England (and Scotland) to London and the SE...
At least Edinburgh is brown.
But seriously, my main problem with Aberdeen is psychological. It feels so far from everywhere else. In Glasgow and Edinburgh, you're much closer to the rest of the UK and even the population centres in Scotland.
There are certainly worse places, and the Shire is gorgeous. But it really doesn't help that it's so far from everwhere else (and I don't just mean London).
There is so much wrong with this statement (which you disguised as a question), but let's start with the fact that the government does not want different research, but mainly less research.
Even worse, I live much further south :)
I will say that Aberdeenshire is absolutely beautiful though.
Yeah, I don't mean to indicate that the model is bad. It's just that statistics are notoriously complicated (both in terms of the mathematics involved but also intuitively understanding the impact of non-perfect data and potential interactions is really hard), and most people really, really suck at it. Once you move from the maths to actually modelling data, you have to rely a lot on (niche) domain knowledge and experience.
I'm a bit biased because I work in a space with actual statisticians, but I'd wager that it's almost impossible for current LLMs to distinguish between good and bad examples in their training data. After all, even very smart humans fail to do that.
The German-language Wikipedia article on Stapelspeicher [1] points to a a patent registration [2].

This is not at all how laws actually work. If you sell a product to customers in a specific country, you generally have to comply with local laws. You might be able to avoid this if you're very small and your service is entirely virtual. However, as long as Starlink needs to provide their customers with physical hardware, there are numerous ways to enforce regulations.
And you can always go after people - and I mean both Starlink executives and customers.
There is no absorption peak of water at 2.4GHz. Even worse, the absorption spectrum will change when it heats up.
In my experience, humans are really bad at statistics and LLMs are even worse because they basically just mimic all the typical mistakes people make.
Just to be clear, this is a Biden era policy.
Not just you. Why is on the front page?
I see a great future for Firefox.
Very clever idea! This was fun!
It's just a typical response. What he means (in an admittedly unnecessary, snarky way) is that this is not going to revolutionise perceptual colour science. It's not going to be an out-of-this-world experience, nor will it change our understanding of how humans perceive colour. I personally think it's pretty cool, though.
The Guardian's article on this[1] includes a quote from an eminent colour expert at City:
The claim left one expert bemused. “It is not a new colour,” said John Barbur, a vision scientist at City St George’s, University of London. “It’s a more saturated green that can only be produced in a subject with normal red-green chromatic mechanism when the only input comes from M cones.” The work, he said, had “limited value”.

Came here to say this. I don't get why this is necessary at all - it's literaly just bog-standard scrolling content?
