This sounds a little like the AT protocol (or my weak understanding of it). AFAICT on a protocol level your identity and personal data is decoupled from a content aggregator.

Australia’s system is IRV (for the federal government / lower house). Schulze is significantly better.

IRV has the tendency to eliminate moderate candidates in the first round (only first preferences count in the first round) which is often where Condorcet candidates lie.

IRV doesn’t enforce two parties like FPTP but it still promotes polarisation.

Debian votes using the Schulze Method, which is a Condorcet method..

Condorcet methods attempt to answer the question “who would win if we asked everyone to vote on every pair of candidates”. Most of the variations between methods deal vary only where there are cyclic preferences e.g. people vote B over A, A over C and C over B.

They’re broadly considered the fairest voting systems available and they permit a candidate that everyone thinks is okay to win over polarising candidates (unlike first past the post and IRV, but like approval voting).

Back to the numbers, the big table is the reconstruction of the pairwise votes (people actually vote by ranking candidates but the ordering is taken to show your pairwise preferences)

Below that is the Schulze process steps being carried out. At the bottom the “Schwartz set” is the set of top, cyclic candidates. There is no cycle so there is only one candidate remaining and therefore a Condorcet candidate wins (the one people in general vote over everyone else).

The important bit is further down

Our Phillips tips follow the ISO 8764-1 standard, which is compatible with the JIS standard B 4633. In fact, of the three main standards, ASME, ISO, and JIS, the least strict standard is JIS. As shown below, the JIS dimensions almost all fall within the ASME or ISO acceptable dimensions. Therefore, any Phillips screwdriver, such as our new Tekton Phillips screwdrivers, can be made to meet JIS standards. In fact, you should expect that all well-made drivers that meet the ASME or ISO standards will also meet the JIS standard.

But yes, this doesn’t make clear if this has changed over time.

And yes, I used a Phillips screwdriver in JIS and vice versa multiple times.

That’s totally fine actually

Interesting topic, awful article. Three photos, none of which are of the subject of the article, and all of which are captioned with the article title instead of real captions?

Here’s the actual car:

I got it from this much better article from TechCrunch

And here’s the the associated project, noRecognition. It’s a run of ai adversarial clothes.

If it helps there’s a standalone version of the logic.

At a rough scan, it looks like it tries to find a best guess “main content” node by stripping unlikely nodes and then scoring each node. Element type and content contribute to the score

/**
       * Loop through all paragraphs, and assign a score to them based on how content-y they look.
       * Then add their score to their parent node.
       *
       * A score is determined by things like number of commas, class names, etc. Maybe eventually link density.
       **/

That’s disappointing to hear. Which core did you get?

It’s smaller than you’re looking for but I’d be remiss not to bring up the MNT Pocket Reform

XMPP is the standard messaging protocol. I recommend Conversations for android, but of course any worthwhile protocol has multiple independent frontends.

VLC can play anything because of its reliance on the amazing ffmpeg. MPV also uses ffmpeg, as does any video tool worth it’s salt.

Physiotherapists tend to recommend against wrist rests. When you are typing your hands should hover, when you aren’t then your hands should ideally move away from the keyboard altogether.

If you still use one anyway, rigid ones are less likely to compress veins/nerves in your wrist/hand and are more comfortable than they sound. Make sure you only rest your palm on it (and only when not typing), it’s not actually a “wrist” rest (also you’ll find better options searching for “palm rest” IME).

I am not a physio, this is all parroted from two physios I’ve talked to about wrist pain.

The origin of the hobby 3D printer is the RepRap project, a community open hardware project. Josef Prusa was actively involved. The first printer the company actively sold - the Prusa i3 - is still on the RepRap website.

They got a bit more restrictive with their licencing terms in the recent past which is both understandable and a bit of a slap in the face to where they came from, but they’re still the most open 3D printer manufacturer.

(Not the most open 3d printer though, that award has to go to DIY only models like the Voron)

It’s fine for input, but Logseq “.md” files are only suitable for import back into Logseq (at least if they have any links)

How close do you want it to be?

I’m a big fan of the OpenBook

This predates the ai bubble. There used to be a really common “plagiarism detector” (something like CheckMeIn?] that would generate a “similarity score” with a database of literature. Institutions were welcome to set their own thresholds of what they considered too similar. I hit the threshold multiple times in completely original works by using language that was simply too literary or formal in nature.

Mind I had been accused of plagiarism by teachers prior to those tools for much the same reason based only on vibes, so maybe that was a step up, since students could use it ahead of time.

There was a news story around that time of somebody getting taken through disciplinary action due to getting close to 100% similarity on the tool - eventually to discover that their own essays had Venn included in the database.

PCjs uses JavaScript to emulate a small collection of hardware and software that I grew up with in the 1970s and 1980s, allowing you to experience their slow CPUs, low-resolution displays, and primitive sound effects, all in the comfort and safety of your desktop or mobile web browser.

Over time, PCjs emulations have expanded to include selected IBM PC Compatibles and more classic machines, such as Minicomputers, Programmable Calculators, Terminals, and Arcade Games. To learn more or contribute to these very modest preservation efforts, visit the PCjs open-source project on GitHub.

Vim hasn’t been able to copy to the clipboard since I switched to Wayland. Now it can and hopefully will do so in general as I have unnamedplus enabled, making the system clipboard the default one.

full Wayland support (including clipboard support)

Woohoo! This limitation has significantly reduced the utility of vim for me in recent times, so it’s great to see

I don’t have a specific recommendation, but I believe the key words to search for these days are “Digital Audio Player”.

I’ve been following the open hardware Tangara for a while, but they’re between production runs right now so you can’t buy from them (you might be able to build your own though, the design is all there)

As a heads up, like so many other technologies the middle has fallen out of the market thanks to the proliferation of smart phones. You’ll be paying a lot for anything decent from what I’ve seen
