Haaretz reports that Benjamin Netanyahu received warnings from the UAE and Israel’s security chiefs before October 7, yet didn't act. The editorial calls for an independent state inquiry and says elections should bring his replacement. ⚖️🇮🇱 #Israel #Netanyahu #October7 https://archive.is/0Kwm7 use tor browser

Won’t it be cool when your Apple Watch writes your own erotic stories after listening to you in your own bedroom?
@jpm oh, it's *that* meaning of "watch"

@evan no such thing
@satuelisa there's no such thing as being more intelligent than humans?
@paul I read some but not all of these posts and enjoyed what I read! Rants about OSI are always amusing, and your writing style is doubly so. And I was entertained by your notes on FCC-compliant test procedures: I think most of those methods would probably suffice without doing any of the others, but kudos for thoroughness.
I'd be especially interested in reading about what motivated you to write not one but two SDR libraries and what you learned from those efforts. I have one technical complaint about GNU Radio from the time I tried to use it two decades ago, which I think still applies today, so I've been interested in the software engineering aspects of SDR for a long time, and would love to hear your thoughts on that.
(My complaint was that the ability to wire together dataflow graphs of simple reusable components is amazing, right up to the point where you need feedback, when suddenly you can't reuse any of the existing components any more and have to write custom C++ from scratch. And so many protocols require feedback to demodulate. I don't blame them because it's hard to get good performance if you can't process samples in large batches, but from my point of view that little restriction made the whole thing unusable, and I've been wondering how to do better ever since.)
@jamey Thank you so much! Very humbled and appreciate that a great deal!
I've mostly done it to force myself to learn how this all works -- I started off because it was confusing to me. I think I generally (conceptually) could read a flowgraph and reason about things but the /how/ it was doing each of those things was still a questionmark. I forced myself to implement everything from {librtlsdr, libuhd, libairspyhf, libhackrf, libiio} up to where I'm at now purely as a learning exercise
@bkuhn Do you check your ebb mail?
@stibbons @djsundog Actual design request can the length of shell symbols correspond somewhat to how weakly they bind?
Like in particular, since pipes bind uniformally less strongly than path dividers, can they be a pair of characters? Like ` // ` rather than ` / `. (Or whatever character.) Especially since pipes don't repeat sequentially.
Actually wait, new idea, what if there's some way to use "\" for this, with the idea that that's a shorthand for "1\1", that is, modding out fd1 from the first process and replacing it with fd1 from the second process.
So like a more complicated arrangement could be
"procA 1\3 2\1 2\2 procB", mapping a handful of things in a circle.
... I still don't like this. I want some better way of tossing ahead and picking up multiple output streams into, like, a non-trivial graph of different fd#s from the same process going to different processes.
I’ve spent all week in New York City. It’s amazing how the right urban environment refreshes me mentally and keeps me in balance. I’ve found my little pocket of the place that’s a good mix of accessible, close to things I care about, close to things I want to do, with all of the food that I want to eat. Many other cities have all of these things, but this particular one is the one that has always made me feel ‘this is it’, like when you know when you meet someone you want to be with forever
@skinnylatte Nothing made me fall back in love with NY like moving away for a while. It's really like no place else. Not for everyone, but if it's for you, there's no substitue.
