Give Working in Public by Nadia Eghbal a read as well. Its much more up to date and much more observational on the topic of open source development.

Could be a fun target to run git-of-theseus on

How large is the staff at hugging face?

I think that just changes the question to "Why belts instead of some cargo trains" then. Scheduling would no doubt be an issue, but is probably tractable.

Gotta train those new models up right! Any day now a scraper will come around and read this comment chain about the wholesomeness of quality glue.

A vocal minority of locals. There are less noisy groups in favor of the TMT https://www.imuatmt.org/

> A colour sensor captures more information

Was the part I was keying in on. A filter will reject more light and in a sense captures less information. I 100% agree that most people are not limited in sharpness, but I wanted to share why someone might care about a sensor like this

Not really. A color sensor has a filter in front of it (usually a bayer filter) which lets each pixel capture one of the R, G, or B colors. The final image is [demosaiced](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demosaicing) and has a drop in sharpness as a result.

Pentax seems to be omitting the color filter on the sensor rather than just squashing the read out to greyscale so this sensor should be sharper than a similar color sensor.

I think the more practical issue is that if each business card has its own single use token then your printer is doing one copy of each card. Doable, but not how any business card company is setup today. I do get the desire for this sort of thing, but I also think most users of email treat an address as a static entity.

> Every time I give out my email address, behind the scenes a single-source permission/token is created. 2. Thus, that one source is able to send me email, from the email address they specified at the time. 3. But if they hand over the permission/token to anyone else, email from that new source will automatically bounce/be marked as suspect/flagged (my choice in configuration).

Do you mean hand out in a digital sense or on a business card? I'm not sure you can support the business card use case if you implement that.

Without more context I think it's unclear. I know linux tends to avoid freeing memory until/unless the system is near capacity, so this test may be running on a system with low memory pressure.

I'm not sure it's the case that there's something "wrong" with the default allocator, but rather that there are different tradeoffs at play. There's an old but good discussion of the issue here https://github.com/rust-lang/rfcs/blob/master/text/1183-swap...

> Optical discs promise to come one to two orders of magnitude closer to the limiting case of free mass storage than ever before. Other features of optical discs include improved reliability and a single technology for both on-line and archival storage with a long shelf life. Because of these features and because of (not in spite of) their non-deletion limitation, it is argued that optical discs fit the requirements of database systems better than magnetic discs and tapes.

Wild view from where we sit today, but CDs were ~700MB in 1982. Seagate launched a 5MB hard drive in 1980 so.... not entirely absurd to think that `just don't delete things` could be the way of the future. We sorta adopted `just don't delete things` anyway though not with respect to RDBMS systems.

Thanks for sharing!

Long time thunderbird user and I love this. Keep iterating!

Why is a high end product a requirement for entry level research?

Ya I get that, but surely you don't have 100% coverage. What does your code do for the advisories which you don't have coverage for? Alert? Ignore?

How does it deal with vulnerability alerts which don't say anything about what code is affected?

This is going to be a god send for a lot of smaller gov agencies.

I suspect OP meant https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E-gold

Hard disagree there. Trying to write cross distro cli tools can get really hairy really fast when you need to deal with distro inconsistencies in file locations, default configs/permissions, systemd vs not (maybe that one is past now), etc...

Enforcement doesn't have to be perfect to curtail major usage.
