Aside from the security issue, it seems like an awful idea for a government (or governments, in this case) to say 'hey, you need to follow this standard for invoicing. But also, you have to pay to see the entire standard'.. almost

They already have well over double the US solar output (US solar output is about 750 Twh according to this source, while China's is a bit over 2000 Twh) and their YoY solar increase is about 4x the US (600 Twh increase in China vs 150

I think he should be mainly throwing it at the VST vendor, as opposed to the protection software, since the main issue in the article comes from the vst vendor protecting the installer but not the actual software (that said, they also show

Question: Why go through the effort of removing most of the key throughout the article just to have it in a chunk of code in the article anyways? I'm not trying to throw shade here, I am legitimately curious about the reasoning

No offense to the OP (what you did is great - as someone who had to pick up expo/RN on the fly for my newest job, it can be a bit annoying, and that is before all of the compliance nightmares associated with push provisioning) but the

Perhaps I'm in the minority here, but I feel like it would be much more useful to link to an article instead of a video in order to be able to digest and compare the information to other sources. I understand news platforms use videos

Never say never. All it takes is one case of the encrypted data being outside a secure setting due to the 'human' factor, and then this mandated backdoor can be used to decrypt it. Of course, they won't ever mandate a backdoo

Atleast for the photo/image editing part, GIMP is FOSS and, while it definitely has a learning curve compared to some other software, does a pretty reasonable job

What platform are you talking about in this case? If anyone here is a conman, it is Musk - given that he literally had people pay a subscription for something that never materialized, repeatedly promising 'oh it'll be here soon&#x

I can load it fine, and it loads quickly.. I'd be very surprised if HN could hug the mlb website to death, considering it probably sees significantly more traffic than we'd end up causing them, especially with an ALCS game going o

Maybe it is because I'm a bit too deep in the React ecosystem at this point, but once you start trying to do any reasonably complex task, this seems like it would be significantly harder to reason about. Also, unless I'm misunders

Are there general LLMs that can translate text 'on image', as opposed to spitting out the translation as text? I feel like it would be easier to reason about in images that are very text-heavy like some of these diagrams, but from

It may be $11 here in the US, but it might be harder to get and more costly in a developing nation. In which case, if it is easier to get that $2 adapter and an e-waste keyboard, that likely makes sense for them

Just to clarify something from the article and the github repo code (sorry if this is readily explained in the repo, C code using AVX stuff is not something I have any experience with): does the SIMD version still handle things like escaped

The funny thing for me is that I still have the phone number I had when I was growing up, which is for a state halfway across the US. Most of my spam calls are in the area code of my phone number, making them pretty easy to recognize since
