I get what you're saying, and yet it exists and a term exists for it.

I know there's no "nullification" verdict and the binary guilty/not guilty are the only recognized options, but nullification is used to describe the not guilty verdict despite any charges and evidence in a trial, which I'm sure you understand.

I don't think her decision to take the deal took into account whether jury nullification exists or not. The way you explained it sounds like retrocausality, though I don't know if that's the way you meant it.

Jury nullification isn't about fair outcomes, I should clarify, but about whether the law itself is lawful, representative of the people, or applied lawfully. Maybe that fits into the definition of fair I had in mind, but I was thinking on it more objectively, not subjectively.

There are proponents and opponents within the United States, true, but if a legal system does not permit punishment of jurors, then jury nullification is a logical byproduct of the system. And an important one I would argue. It fits into why trials by jury are important in a democratic legal system - the people have the final say, whether they realize it or not.

Whether a jury feels a charge is fair is the whole reason trial by a jury of peers exists.

It's a feature of the system, not a bug.

It'll probably be there, but at least it can be disabled in the settings now. It won't go away on its own.

This was when I stopped using it for a while. I sent multiple feedback messages as it really irritated me.

That I agree with. Microsoft drafted the recommendation to use it for local networks, and Apple ignored it or co-opted it for mDNS.

[–] xcjs@programming.dev 4 points 1 year ago

Macs aren't the only thing that use mDNS, either. I have a host monitoring solution that I wrote that uses it.

[–] xcjs@programming.dev 10 points 1 year ago

Yeah, that's why I started using .lan.

[–] xcjs@programming.dev 29 points 1 year ago (5 children)

I was using .local, but it ran into too many conflicts with an mDNS service I host and vice versa. I switched to .lan, but I'm certainly not going to switch to .internal unless another conflict surfaces.

I've also developed a host-monitoring solution that uses mDNS, so I'm not about to break my own software. 😅

Coincidentally, I just found this other thread that mentions EasyEffects: https://programming.dev/post/17612973

You might be able to use a virtual device to get it working for your use case.

I consider it a big deal. I'm clicking "Not Now" buttons all day when I just want to use a piece of software for its main purpose. And then because it says "Not Now" I get asked again and again and again.

I just wanted to update this to mention that there are a lot of custom low level performance improvements for CPU based inferencing in Llamafile: https://justine.lol/matmul/
