When I started using emacs around 10 years ago, it felt pretty stale and I had the impression that it hadn't been updated much in a long time. Now it feels like it's being very actively maintained. There are regularly new modern f

It's not a given. Many people pick up the phone at the slightest pause or hope to not have to put down the phone for the conversation. It's known as phubbing and is detrimental to a good conversation.

> At least in the US, a majority of adults are on at least one prescription drug and a large number have two or more. This is wild to me. I find it hard to believe that this is not a bad thing.

I just started using this tool locally and it's pretty nice. The default UI doesn't highlight the matching substring like fzf does which isn't as nice.

I suspect that the dominance of HTML is largely due to it being the only browser native markup language. Crucially, the browsers' dev tools always show HTML and having an obvious mapping from there to your code is hard to beat. I perso

Sometimes, we can't have nice things. PFAS seems to be one of those times. There only seem to be application specific replacements, e.g. ceramic pan coatings and glass mouse skates. The properties of PFAS are in a class of their own. A

There are also legal uncertainties around that. Someone would likely figure it out it Jeff himself wouldn't just blog about it. My impression is that some companies don't want AI made content on their platform. Which could mean an

Last time I checked (~7 years ago) they didn't even share reviews between regions. It was infuriating in Iceland where for obvious reasons all but the most popular apps had less than 5 reviews.

Fortunately, there are quite a few clauses in the original regulation[0], like 31-33, and some clauses in the 50s IIRC, that explicitly mention some of the coercive tactics Apple is employing. Like leveraging other mandatory services provid

What I don't understand is how the pricing methods that our parent comment called egregious offer any type of protection or mitigation. Could you elaborate?

Many people, sure. But not everyone. I tried iPhone for some years but went back to Android. There were just too many random arbitrary restrictions for me.

Thanks to the DMA we won't have to anymore. Not that I'd ever buy an apple product, beside the best usb-c DAC on the market.

I really hope this cleverness/circumvention attempt will trigger the DMA's anti circumvention clause.

That's interesting. They will definitely find the minimum amount of users to enable this for.

They shouldn't have to be careful because apple's gatekeeping is what the legislation is trying to stop.

How are users protected in this situation? To me this only seems to twist the arms of large companies like epic and Facebook. A small malicious app with thousands of installs can exist completely for free.

I remember enjoying The Incredible Machine games as a kid. Those games are pretty old now but their creator made a game called Contraption Maker[1] which might be worthwhile. It has good reviews on steam. Those games are obviously quite dis

That's true. Some assumptions always have to be made. In this case, we can assume place names that can be arbitrary strings and temperatures that occur naturally on earth. Optimizing around those constraints should be fine. We could p

It depends on the topic, certainly. For technical and non-controversial subjects I believe it can be relied on. If it fails, the damage is usually low.

Given this requirement, they would be wise to have the test data be different from the example data. That would prevent overfitting optimizations.
