This is awesome. Does anyone know if there is a library for the amazing optical codes that apple uses in its device transfer? I know they have a custom patent for it so I don't know if its something anyone has tried to recreated...

i beat it by having the phone control the direction the robot would move, like an RC controller :)

Sorry, I'm unfamiliar with PLT what does stand for?

Agree, in fact this wonderful book calls this out, stating:

  As DuckDB is an analytics database, it has only minimal support for transactions and parallel write access. You therefore couldn’t use it in applications and APIs that process and store input data arriving arbitrarily. Similarly when multiple concurrent processes read from a writeable database.

You’re maybe right, but does that mean the language should be hostile to those that don’t write well designed code?

What was the article from yesterday? I feel like I missed something helpful.

Not saying you’re wrong, but what are you proposing as an alternative? How should comprehensive knowledge be tested? Weekly homework/projects?

P.s. love the user name.

Just going off the trick above would t it just be: 23 x 10 - 23 = 230 - 23 = 207...

I guess I’m confused what point you’re making?

This really is great to see, but it’s clear from their careful wording that the google takedown of the recent widevine l3 repository won’t be reversed:

> And our reinstatement, based on new information that showed the project was not circumventing a technical protection measure (TPM)

Since it is clearly circumventing a “TPM.”

Notion tables are WAY more powerful than markdown tables...

You can configure views, filtering, sorting, summary’s, and foreign keys with roll ups....

That’s not something trivial to build, however I’d be pleasantly surprised if obsidian eventually got there.

Slightly off topic, are fines even the right approach to get better behavior? What incentive structure does they encourage?

I fear it encourages you to hide or down play an incident, if possible, when issues do happen. Instead you’d rather want to encourage transparency and some way to prove you’re following good practices and have a good track record. Maybe some incentives like car insurance companies claim to follow: better driving record, reduced insurance costs. (Not that I think car insurance is a successful/good example.)

Failure cases (like data breaches and ransomware attacks) are certainly easier to measure though, so maybe this is the best we can hope for...

I’d be much more receptive to the IRS getting more resources if we also address the insane complexity that is our tax code.

Given how many weird loopholes it contains it’s no wonder that they don’t have enough horsepower to compete with the lawyers of the ultra rich...

Any chance this change was related to the recent scraping decision from the Supreme Court (I think) against linked in? Maybe this is to prevent people scraping content front public pages.

That and as others have mentioned I’m sure they’d love everyone to always be logged in for ad tracking purposes...
