There is no option to turn that off? Or they even don't publish those things anywhere??

I want to love Tailscale on mobile, but it conflicts with Adguard and regularly disconnects.

I keep Tailscale but switched over to Pangolin for access most of my self-hosted services.


The blue check symbolised (symbolises) being verified, i.e. this account belongs to who it says it does. But it doesn't carry out any/sufficient checks to actually verify that.

Europe ran out of colonies, but not the colonial mindset.

Now they're trying to recolonise the world with their regulations.


"They're free to do whatever they want with their own service" != "You can't criticize them for doing dumb things"

Isn't that show-off? I mean you have achieved is good but feels like bragging about it ! Just a thought

You could easily argue that the IBM of old did die and that what is now IBM is something completely new. But, if you’re a company that is going to be as big and last as long as IBM or Nokia (as another example), you need to have a few good pivots to stick around.

We might be seeing Intel’s pivot taking place in real time. Hopefully it works…


Your best bet is to plan a year or so ahead and get sponsorship in the queue so the spouse can enter with a green card. Timelines are about 8-14 months.

But as PRoberts said, a non-citizen spouse can't enter on a tourist visa with the intention to change status. A spouse can visit, but then change their mind while in the US.

But CBP is well aware of people trying to shortcut the process this way, so it can be very challenging convincing CBP your non-citizen spouse intends to leave. But it can be done showing a job, property or other elements that would require someone to go back.


Well, even htc had let go this dream i guess long ago. Now new device from steam maybe help to do this with games

The line imo is the amount of DRAM OpenAI actually needs/can use. If they end up piling some of it in a warehouse just so nobody else can use it, lock em up.

> they're not tied to any specific business model

That would be really useful if they had more than one business model but they don't and probably aren't going to.


For enjoyers of classic simpsons, I highly recommend /r/simpsonsshitposting, a delightful blend classic simpsons, absurdist/surrealist/dadaist art, multilayered inside jokes and often NSFW content. It could not exist without The Frinkiac.

All startups in due course turn into Byzantine labyrinths of bureaucracy. Only the record keepers survive.

I think the "if something bad happens throw an exception" thing does have some value, namely that you can make it very explicit in the code that this is a use case that you can't handle, and not that you merely forgot something or wrote a bug.

In PHP a pattern I often employ is:

  match ($value) {
    static::VALUE_1 => ..., 
    static::VALUE_2 => ..., 
    default => static::unreachable() 
  } 

Where unreachable is literally just:

  static function unreachable() { 
    throw new Exception('Unreachable'); 
  } 

Now, we don't actually need the default match arm. If we just leave it off entirely, and someone passes in something we can't match, it'll throw a PHP error about unmatched cases.

But what I've found is that if I do that, then other programmers go in later and just add in the case to the match statement so it runs. Which, of course, breaks other stuff down stream, because it's not a valid value we can actually use. Or worse: they add a default match arm that doesn't work! Just so the PHP interpreter doesn't complain.

But with this, now the reader knows "the person who wrote this considered what happens when something bad is passed in, and decided we cant handle it. There's probably a good reason for that". So they don't touch it.

Now, PHP has unique challenges because it's so dynamic. If someone passes in the wrong thing we might end up coercing null to zero and messing up calculations, or we might end up truncating a float or something. Ideally we prevent this with enums, but enums are a pain in the ass to write because of autoloading semantics (I don't want to write a whole new file for just a few cases)


I think the VST author and the DRM vendor are different people and the author is poking fun at the latter. It’s possible that the VST author isn’t aware that the fancy DRM protection they paid for doesn’t cover runtime.

The point of the comment wasn't to persuade you to like a particular cover.

I'm only aware of it myself because of an unusual number of vocal coaches being overly enthusiastic about it. "Country" is a an odd label for it given the transition midway.

The thrust to the comment was to remind the GP to not limit their expectations about what others might do. You yourself highlighted Cash's cover as something you deem of value, it's another example of an unexpected product.

Live coding my or may not progress in any particular direction or genre, I'd prefer to not make any predictions myself and leave open the possibility of being pleasantly surprised.


It's just like the Nobel, but soccer.

Runtime checks aren't an impossible effort to defeat either. If you're into this stuff, you should build a plugin with them yourself and then figure out how to crack it. It's a great learning exercise.

As another commenter wrote, the protection is there to keep honest people honest, like locking the front door of your house.

It's not foolproof and doesn't need to be. It's role is to make sure respectful users know that you'd genuinely prefer they not steal your stuff (not everyone actually does care about that).


We updated the link, thanks!

They could always satisfy that with an iPad or tablet? Also, I think it matters where your rear pillars are on if you need a backup camera or not, older cars have much bigger back windows but are more likely to kill you in a roll over.

And I'm glad they didn't. Protecting the installer keeps honest people honest. Protecting the runtime after installed means reduced performance and/or support headaches. That said I hope the developer didn't pay too much for this copy protection when some bespoke checks on the installer would have sufficed.

I'm just glad they didn't use iLok. It's been a pain for me as a legitimate user of a few iLok protected plugins.


Possible user-space DoS on Linux when running on an ARM7 CPU in just two instructions. Would that be a record? If the kernel was configured to support OABI (exclusively or together with EABI), I think the following two-ARM-instr binary will simply crash the kernel if the core has alignment checking: SUB PC, PC, #2; SWI 0. I am not sure how common such configs are, but someone should maybe fix that? The fix would be only one extra instruction.

Apple Silicon actually has microarchitectural quirks implementing certain x86-isms in hardware for Rosetta 2 to use. I doubt any other ARM SoC would do such a thing, so I doubt third-party translation will ever get quite as efficient.

If one says "someone" it may seem too targeted.

I imagine it probably would’ve been bought by David Ellison rather than Larry Ellison but that probably would be an effective use of the Warner Brothers IP – have you seen a review of the Suicide Squad game? For a piece of content viewed as the spiritual successor to the award-winning Batman Arkham games it is very disappointing.

It's a dupe, you've submitted a dupe.

Should be investigated as anticompetitive behavior under the FTC Act. Of course that's unlikely to happen. Maybe also market manipulation under the Commodity Exchange Act.

Not mandating and not recommending are two different things. Europe basically universally recommends hep-b because it would be insane not to.
