> It's about making people feel safe. I think it is the opposite. It is supposed to be a visceral reminder that we are not safe, and therefore should assent to the erosion of civil liberties and government intrusions into our lives

Thanks, I gave it a try. I see the download, but it isn't signed for newer iphones. Only ones that don't support iOS 26. So frustrating. I'm on a 12 mini and people report that 26 runs horribly on it.

I could not agree more. It probably doesn't help that I just spend an hour trying to figure out how to update to 18.7.3 on my iphone. It turns out you can't. The only way to get security updates now is to upgrade to iOS 26. App

Kind of ironic that there's a big overlap in the venn diagram between 2nd amendment enthusiasts and the crowd that is cheering on the government's authoritarian actions.

These are also easy to DIY with a raspberry pi, rfid card reader, some blank cards, and phoniebox [0] for the software. I don't have much electronics experience and had it up and running fairly easily for under $40. [0] https:/&

MacOS seems to be going the way of Windows, with unnecessary and distracting notifications for things users don't care about. Then on top of that, the whole liquid glass redesign that hurts usability and information density. Definitel

Almost a thousand pages of presumably well thought out and neatly written notes. For lectures, and not even his own research. I'm always amazed at the productivity and output of the great ones.

That's an incredibly misleading graph. Never look at something with a growth rate on a linear scale, as it will always have a "hockey stick" shape, even with constant growth. If you look at the same series on a log scale, y

Probability of punishment seems to matter more than severity of punishment. This follows from economic and game theoretic models and is backed up by empirical studies. For example: https://www.academia.edu/download/55

And after all of that there are still red bubbles nagging you to sign up for various services and to enable features you already said no to. I remember switching to Mac years ago to avoid this type of user-hostile crap in Windows.

It seems like MLB themselves have been experimenting with this. On their website, they have a feature called "gameday" that animates the game. For a while now they've had a 2d view, but now they also have a 3d view that you

Great to see a Julia project featured. I keep rooting for Julia to take off, but python's dominance in AI has me doubtful. It is such a great language, and capable of ML and AI workloads, as evidenced by this research.

If we are heading into a period of high inflation and interest rates, holding debt now is great. High unexpected inflation means that the dollars that you use to pay off the debt are worth less, and you are locked in to a low interest rate
