I'm not sure how anyone could expect a telecom protocol to automatically determine if a call is a robocall. Those merely prevent spoofing and allow the FCC to track town offenders.

Have any of you reported the calls [1]? They can't do anything about something they know nothing about, and they have taken extremely aggressive action in the past [2]. [1]: https://www.fcc.gov/consumers/guides&#x2

Let's not forget that Rosenworcel is also likely to be replaced by a sock Paipet. She has also been doing great work at the FCC.

I wonder how a transformer (even an existing LLM architecture) would do if it was trained purely on chess moves - no language at all. The limited vocabulary would also be fantastic for training time, as the network would be inherently small

I vastly prefer it to Docker, especially buildah over buildx. Instead of inventing yet-another-dsl buildah allows you to simply use shell scripts (though it does also support dockerfiles). Another thing buildah is really good at is not do

Maybe you're just extremely lucky. MediatR is part of the problem, yes. Way too much attribute/reflection magic there. One particularly good example is: attempt to add full support (i.e. query text generation) for PERCENTILE_CONT

Sadly modern idiomatic C# is a bit of a nightmare these days. It's a heavily abstracted/"indirected" style, where you are basically forced to use a debugger to determine where a method call actually goes. The goal seems

Right, if references were meant to be pointers then they would simply be called pointers. Some abstractions are meant to be treated as a black box. It's bloody trivial to realize and point out that references are represented as pointer

You have to be pretty careful when using syscalls directly, at least in the presence of some libc. For example, from what I have gathered from random tidbits here and there, it's not a good idea to use any of the fork-like calls (fork,

The trough of disillusionment is going to be frightening, and I believe we're starting to see the first signs of it (with Apple's paper, ironically enough).

You could also look into shamelessly "taking inspiration" from async-lock.

Redis can cluster alongside your backend cluster, so you'll have the advantage that sometimes the data will be local.

This isn't really the case anymore, Linux (specifically SteamOS and its kin) serve the console-like market very well. Arguably better than Windows. Even for non-Gaming use cases this idea is a bit dated. Printing is by far the best e

Safe Rust takes some time to _unlearn._ By which I mean, there are (in my opinion) objectively bad practices that a linear language prevents you from doing - such as cyclic data graphs in memory. Rust is hard because you need to unlearn bad

Take a look at SRV records instead - they are very intentionally designed for this, and behave vaguely similarly to MX. Creating a DNS server (or a CoreDNS/whatever module) that dynamically updates weights based on backend metrics has

It seems that syscalls might be the culprit (ACKs occur completely inside the kernel for TCP, where anything UDP acks from userspace). I wonder if BGP could be extended for protocol development.

It blocks trackers, which means ads usually get caught up in the net. It's anyone's guess if the ones that makes it through aren't tracking, or are successfully evading (I'd wager the latter).

In addition to making sure that the EAC runtime is installed, try setting the compatibility command to: SDL_VIDEODRIVER=windows,x11 %command% This is a typical problem with EAC.

Valve Index. I currently dual-boot Windows for VR. This is the rabbit hole I went down (to be clear: SteamVR, specifically the compositor, is completely broken). 1. Install Monado with libsurvive. 2. Discover that libsurvive doesn't ha
