Not sure what you’re talking about. My work has been using Google meets and I would strongly disagree here. Google hangouts has been relatively fast (by Google standards) at adapting to the market needs and improving its features. It also runs in the browser which is a lot nicer than zoom’s dark patterns to install dubious executables or deal with a crappy webrtc interface.
Both performance and complexity cost. Yes if you are google/amazon/fb scale you basically have to pay the complexity cost because of how many users/how much money downtime costs/etc. Most businesses are not nearly on that scale. Last I knew StackOverflow was running on 2 webservers and one DB server or the like. Most companies are not even at SO's scale.
Oh you mean the mandates the Supreme Court just struck down?[1]

I am vaccinated but I stand with my brothers and sisters who demand a choice. Had it been mandated and had I known then what I know now, I would have not taken it.

Uh... M1 (at least when Mac-fused) isn't actually locked-down. You do have to jump through a few hoops to boot modified kernels[0], but it's a reasonable level of security for a chip primarily intended to go into laptops. There's an ongoing effort to reverse-engineer the M1 and port Linux to it[1], which has actually gone really well.

There's also plenty of ARM hardware out there that really doesn't bother with lockdowns. Raspberry Pi, for example, will happily boot whatever you put on the SD card[2]. There's also plenty of other dev boards and chips that are similarly not locked-down. The reason why people think of ARM as "more locked-down" is because it's more often used in locked-down hardware, but there's no architectural requirement for it to be this way.

The real big problem with ARM is that every chip is very different from one another. SoC designers have a habit of reassigning addresses and IDs on every new chip, with no thought towards backwards compatibility. So even if an ARM chip has no technical protection against third-party operating systems, any Linux kernel you build is unlikely to boot unless the SoC vendor has bothered to upstream support for it. Ironically, Apple is one of the few ARM vendors that actually does maintain backwards compatibility where feasible.

[0] The first admin account is granted possession of a local signing key that lets that user sign kernels. This means that you need to be able to log into that account under macOS in order to install Linux - evil maids need not apply.

[1] Legend has it that if you say "M1" three times in a HackerNews comment, you'll summon the primary developer of Asahi Linux.

[2] You do have to provide a GPU boot blob; no clue if there's a project to reimplement that.
Well I did lose some time trying to figure out why two seemingly valid words didn’t work, only after a bit did I realize swapping the letters also worked and was the “correct” solution.
Hi - individuals who want to be poached. I asked on twitter to a group of people who were looking for jobs, "For those looking for work right now, what step are you on?" and the options were

- finding roles

- interviewing prep

- interviewing

- Waiting to get poached

// And surprisingly to me, most of the people answered "Waiting to get poached"
Case in point: China
Fair enough - it is somewhat ambiguous though. What are they storing in DNA? Maybe it is marketing speak as you say.
It's effectively not 0, as explained by tveyben and others :) There's a fee that they charge and can change whenever they feel like it.
"So in order to continue Quirk, Quirk needed to make people feel worse for longer. "

You really ought to say something else. I know you don't mean it, but some mental health professionals read that a little sideways. I get it -- the folks who have a need for sustained engagement with therapy were difficult to reach or require more intensive efforts or something. So why not say that?
The amount of dependancies, build environment setup steps, across all of the components, and sheer complexity of putting the entire stack together from scratch, would exclude a substantial portion of the target users... hence, while possible, is not reasonable, certainly not on angling basis.
Absolutely heroic.
Did Apple give a reason? Privacy?

I could see a privacy case in not letting any and every extension have access to all requests.
For one, it's called the Spanish Flu because of the newspapers that printed the reports not because of suspected origin.

Generic, by default, does not in any way make things more robust.
We've gone from engineering solutions to meet specific problems to engineering solution frameworks that (supposedly) will solve the problem and allow for any unknowns. The problem is, no matter how hard the engineer tries, he can never anticipate the unknowns to the extent that the application framework can support all of them.
We should go back to solving the specific problem at hand. In both scenarios you get the customer who wants a feature that absolutely doesn't fit with the current application, therefore a rewrite is necessary. And with the specific solution, you don't have nearly the man hours wasted.
I totally agree with xkcd, but the problem is there is nothing like that anywhere!
And the point of this is what exactly ? The author advertises Goss "Easy and cheap concurrency", "Low memory overhead" and "Easy deployment", but the example does not show how Go will help in this particular case.
Why couldn't the coder use Extconf and just include the Go program into its scope like C?
I sometimes just start rdr2 just to be amazed again on how far game development has come. It's a shame though that as an programmer, I can't really play games anymore without constantly thinking: "how is that made?" And before I know it I'm taken out of the game and imagining algorithms. Very annoying, but can't help myself.
Perhaps. Alternatively, toilet paper will replace money so people will receive it in place of wages, payments etc. In that case, stuffing one's house full of toilet paper will be similar to stashing one's banknotes under one's bed etc.

In that scenario, money would acquire the same value that toilet paper used to have before the virus. So toilet paper would be the new money and money the new toilet paper.
Interesting idea. I’m from a similar background (tech startup then bank and now startup trying to sell to banks).

Would love to learn more about your project.
> I can tell you that the industry is much more appreciative of each other's competitors

Totally agree, back in 2012 Intel, TSMC, Samsung pool together roughly 5 billions of investment [1] in ASML to manufacture the EUV machines needed to manufacture 5nm today.

It’s not healthy to keep checking the news every hour or two on COVID stuff either.
I'm highly skeptical of the claim that it will pay for _all_ of SF health workers PPE needs. How many masks and gowns does $1 million buy? How long will the supplies last at the exponential growth we're seeing?

That being said, pg is amazing person for donating and an inspiration to many.
I am not a doctor but if it is indeed anti-inflammatory and causes apoptosis it sounds more likely to be harmful than to be helpful. I suspect apoptosis (or rather what happens is that cells get hijacked by the virus and then the immune systems kills the hijacked cells) is what causes most of the lung damage and inflammation is an important part of the response from the immune system so I would not mess with that more than necessary.
Kinda the same thing here. My parents wanted to buy a tablet and my father does not want an Apple product for various reasons.
I bought them a Nexus 10 (it was a year ago), anyway since I am an Android dev it is easier to provide support for this product.
Personally, I have found this tablet pretty meh, but they don't have the same usage than me at all and they just love this tablet for pretty much the same kind of usage you describe : surf the web, mails, hangouts, view pictures, ...
Rabindranath Tagore:

Where the mind is without fear and the head is held high

Where knowledge is free

Where the world has not been broken up into fragments

By narrow domestic walls

Where words come out from the depth of truth

Where tireless striving stretches its arms towards perfection

Where the clear stream of reason has not lost its way

Into the dreary desert sand of dead habit

Where the mind is led forward by thee

Into ever-widening thought and action

Into that heaven of freedom, my Father, let my country awake
A 4x4 pickup truck. Yep, definitely that. Named the "Fremontero".
When Uber and Lyft left Austin briefly to protest the driver background check requirement, it took no time at all for a bunch of alternatives to pop up.
I personally wouldn’t go to the extent of using CLI tools, as my next of kins and family members aren’t at all technical. A printout of my 1Password emergency kit in a safe deposit box is probably doable, but then what - 598 passwords to projects on an old git repo on an ancient Synology NAS, or a throwaway account for some random website?

There is probably a lot to be said to curate your accounts to assist those sifting through your estate.

The ability to pass your information legacy is important, and complicated. The trope of your mother going through their mother’s papers and finding a long lost love letter - or an unfinished manuscript - is equally plausible today. What secrets lurk in your DMs, Messenger and Signal history? Does your draft blog post actually contain some amazingly insightful observation?

Maybe your family’s memory of you could be enriched with this information? …maybe not?

At the end of (your) day(s), you might take those secrets to your grave, and it’s unlikely that your tombstone will include your GUID, or the Glacier storage URI where your online self will remain until the TOS states otherwise.

even if it were well understood, it is not common knowledge. if it were common knowledge, it isn't common enough of an annoyance. the last part is definitely not correct.

isn't throttling and selective benchmark fakery illegal for the same reasons VW got into trouble? one would assume FTC has a far narrower and well-fanged positioning to punish the perpetrators. what prevents this? (I think monopoly power + no designation as a ultilitt despite being one)
> You can't have a game be free on one platform and cost money on another either, at least I am not aware of any such games.

It's not totally unheard of. Among Us is paid on PC/console but free on mobile. PUBG was similar before it went free to play on all platforms earlier this year.
I'm a bit puzzled now as I don't see a real benefit comparing this to the existing "compilers". Even worse: there's no code base.
An awful lot seems to be getting made out of this one story, and there's really precious little else cited in the post other than generic claims of gloom and doom about search. Google's been fighting spam sites for a long time before this and the battle certainly waxes and wanes but I'm sceptical that it's actually being lost, it's just a constant struggle.

Now if you tell me that there is value in social search we could have a totally different discussion, but it's more about the persuasive power of personal recommendation than algorithms not working any more.
Interesting experience. I've got three or four sites on Webfaction. So far, ssh on a shared server plus the admin panel has been a sweet spot for me between configurability and not having to manage my own server. However, I've noticed an increase in downtime periods over the past few months and I'm starting to have concerns about the reliability of the service.
This is a legitimate concern with foreign immigration as well, although people expressing this concern are usually criticized as racists.
As always you should do some calculations. I would just say that in general (if you are in Germany) the costs are about the same.
I think that many choose Slicehost because they don't care about price all that much and/or believe it will be more stable (which may or may not be true)

I, for one, prefer to use VPS that is cheaper than that, offers more traffic and I believe will still be good enough.
If all goes well, I'll be there.
This is totally correct in my experience also raising chickens. Although, the old eggs from our chickens never got to be as colorless as the store bought.
Not sure where you are located, but I've lived in many places in the Midwest and Florida, and almost every doctor I have interacted with is fully capable of explaining things and does it well. This is not a once-in-a-lifetime thing, but a basic requirement. If your doctor isn't doing this, maybe you should ask more questions. If your doctor can't do this, find another one.
One way for Kagi to have more incentives for privacy of their users would be moving to EU where there laws much more stricter.
Odd. One of the problems in accounting is the difference between tangible value that can be relatively well accounted for and intangible valid that generally doesn't have accepted principles for its accounting. I wonder how that value of Blockchain could be possessed. A public database might be useful in some use cases, but wouldn't it be counterproductive to privacy concerns?
Hmmm nice idea but they left some obvious gaps.. With custom port selection, there should be more port options, like ethernet. The chassis is thick enough to support one of those collapsible sockets at the very least.
Forget Magic (though I appreciate the reference), this is like basic strategic thinking. Especially when there is a clear motive for the opponent (Amazon) to behave the way they are with little but trust they will do the right thing for you (worker).
> I also want to say that I tied home ownership (or at least living in a house) to having children - I don't want the stress of bothering my neighbors on top of child stress. So I haven't started a family, and I don't see a path to starting one. I think I have been priced out of having a family and it makes me so so sad.

I see this a lot. Generally I see it from people who were raised outside urban areas, with a very white-picket-fence lifestyle. It turns into a great deal of stress in people's lives and relationships, as they often literally cannot imagine having children without a detached single family house and a yard and so on. I've seen some of them take major financial risks to try and work up what feels like enough money, with depression resulting if doesn't work.

The people I know who grew up in urban apartments often have none of these hangups. They regard occasionally hearing your neighbor's children as a fact of life.
In theory virgil3d is the way to go as it has existing support in QEMU but there hasn’t been any work porting it to macOS/Metal as of this post.
This looks great. Would like to see a model with a Zen 3 or ARM processor, as buying Intel hardware in 2021 is a bit of a hard sell for me.

Outside of that, anything modular/repairable gets an A+.
It is called a transport network. The train connects to anther train, bus, subway, or any of a number of others ways to get around. Not quite as convenient as parking next to the door, but if the network is good it isn't far off, and overall it can be faster.
I removed Google Analytics from https://ooer.com because it was taking my lighthouse performance score from 100 down to 99, and I wasn't using the data for anything anyway.
>In some hospitals that pipe oxygen to patients’ rooms, the massive volume of cold liquid oxygen is freezing the equipment needed to deliver it, which can block the system.

So the oxygen systems in hospitals are never stress tested at maximum flow? I see a brisk business in adding a heat exchanger before putting it in the pipes.
I have the same curiosity but it is more about being worried that the balkanization of the Internet will have serious negative outcomes down the line, such as what we saw 2 days ago, except progressively worse.

Everyone IMHO should be peering into other bastions of thought
This is one of several levels of security that law enforcement uses. These markings would also be changed quite often—having the wrong colour would make you stand out immediately.
> treatment of BLM protestors

How many BLM protestors were shot and killed by police?

I’m genuinely curious, as I’m not aware of any.
Yep, that's exactly what I do in Zoom.

It's the space bar, and not global (of course), but I stay muted 100% of the time, and press and hold the space bar while I'm talking, then let got when I'm done.
If you can separate children from their parents and lock them in cages you are probably ready to go one step further and lock up Windows too.
What it does do is prevent them from recruiting from redit's normie population for free.
> then there has to be a nuanced resolution.

The nuanced resolution is our laws and court system.

If something is illegal, then our justice system can handled it. Otherwise, it should be allowed to exist on the free internet.
> My office's threat model – and yours – is not based on defending against a mob of people storming the building.

That's sort of exactly the point I'm making. My office's threat model isn't even in the same league, and yet it still seems to have more thought put into physical security than the Capitol building. It would appear that, unlike in the hypothetical you're constructing, in the real event, people didn't even need keycards in order to freely move about the building after getting past the exterior doors.
What you're basically saying is that Google used open source to create a protective ecosystem that prevents other vendors from taking over with their own moats.

Chrome serves the same function. It ensures Google is not blocked by browser default search engine changing, it prevents other people's walls. But would you claim Chrome is "vendor lock in"?

Android is primarily a defense mechanism. If Apple and Microsoft together had nearly 100% of the market for the mobile web, they could change the default search engine to Bing and sink Google overnight.

Android if anything, preserves choice and prevents lock-in, because unlike iOS, it is an open OS, and vendors can always change the defaults.

Good luck getting people to change their behavior if you keep inconveniencing them!
I recall thoroughly enjoying the little fights, sans one: the rook eating the queen always made me uneasy. Not being able to play batttle chess on more advanced hardware was my first exposure to software becoming obsolete.
As I can see from living in Canada and travelling the world there can be several reasons:

- corruption, especially in QC

- over-the-top safety requirements, regardless of project size. E.g. in Toronto every road work sight has a police officer present who’s just standing there bored out of their mind. In Montreal it’d be two persons on each side holding a flag - a job in Europe replaced by a temporary semaphore.

- lack of experience and expertise. Canada is a relatively young country with very few major infra projects under its belt.

- lack of funding due to low density. You just can’t build ambitious infra projects for such sprawling city design. Every city, except Montreal to some degree, suffers from urban sprawl and low density.

- lack of care by citizens. Most Canadians aren’t well travelled outside of Americas. They don’t know what good cities look and feel like. Even when they go on vacations it’s generally cheaper destinations in southern parts like Cuba, Mexico and Dominicans.
You get the same type of nonsense in regards to east asia. Like china, japan and korea have never gotten along and had been in an eternal state of war when in actuality, they had gotten along for most of the past millennium with the 20th century being an exception.
Some people mention how Wayland does not allow access to other windows from other clients, and is sometimes good and bad. In my X12 idea, this is independent of the protocol, and the protocol doesn't care. Restricted access may be implemented either by the X server itself or by some proxy, and either way the protocol doesn't care and the client doesn't care. What the restrictions are may also be implementation-dependent and is preferably configurable by the user. The client would send a SCM_CREDENTIALS message to the server; if the server doesn't understand it then it will just ignore it and allow (or deny) access anyways. (It isn't necessarily only other windows that you may restrict access to; you might also sandbox selections in a proxy too, if you want to.) (Note that an implementation which cannot be configured for unrestricted access technically is not compliant with the specification; although merely allowing it to be configured with restrictions does not violate the specification.)
I’ve been using Hugo for years and I still can’t find what I’m looking for in the documentation.
