Depends on people, but for most it's mainly because Stallman says so. You still have ethics ground if you think it the same way as repairability, actively blocking ways to repairs things you bought yourself is questionable, and keeping

I'm with you on this one. Massive IO on directories with many files is only reliable when a single process access to it, which is not the case, fs are by definition open to concurrent IO. Even though it's true that several process

This got me curious and it seems that there is known APFS behaviors slowing things down on parallel I/O on same folders [1] I would suspect that this is related to to the fact that reading/writing dirs have no atomic semantics in

You forgot the most important part, one's own model is not only probabilistic, it's also (more or less) forever challenged by reasoning to stabilize to some kind of self consistency. This refinement is critical and its mechanics s

People that assume that a (nullable) value is never null because the sample at hand does not contain a null value _will_ learn their lesson the hard way, the one you describe. But even non-nullable does not always resist to time, I'd a

We're talking about culture differences about perception of accountability. Not necessary but definitely on topic.

I deeply agree with you, and I'd like to add: Trust by default, also by default, never ignoring suspicious signals. Trust is not being naïve, I find the confusion of both very worrying.

Inevitable, but for a very narrow specific use case irrelevant for most the humankind, hardly comparable to internet and the web. It's pretty clear that there are many specific uses cases where LLMs shine. It's the path from gener

The only thing people look up on Miele stuff is to last 20 years minimum. That and maybe the cutlery tray on dishwashers, but the patent expired some time ago. Everything else barely matters if the thing is workable one way or another.

I was very centered on the software part of the problem. A complex problem can be solved with a complicated chain of small technical solution. At implementation level, its complicated, not complex, e.g. you mostly need knowledge of the gene

I think this is addressed with the complex vs complicated intro. Most problems with uncontrolled / uncontrollable variables will be approached with an incremental solution, e.g. you'll restrict those variables voluntarily or invol

I've yet to see any immense success based on the open source part of android. Its value and main goal is to suffocate any initiative on mobile space, call it immense if you will, but I concede it certainly works.

I don't see how exact search string can lose its sense. But it does yield "no results", more often than before even if the string has to be publicly available somewhere, in a source I could make sense of. I can see how google

The problem is not JS per se, it's sloppy client code on a very permissive runtime. Otherwise it wouldn't have creeped into app with electron.

I think you're underestimating how explicit rejection triggers awful behavior to seemingly way too many people, so one can be wary of releasing it, plus the fact that rejecting others is not easy for people, automating it seems dehuman

If you find me any resources to build access control on arbitrary (I mean it, arbitrary) rules the right way, I would be very very (very) glad.

by tuyiown 2y ago
authorization and access control is an awfully difficult problem, as soon as you derive from user defined ACLs on all persisted objects and user/groups based granting data. Each access can have an arbitrary rule that must be evaluated
