As a supporting aside, sleep requires that blood vessels constrict a bit, and that's what cold does to a persons body, restrict blood flow to the surface. It may go deeper than that, but I lack the knowledge to assert as much.

You are fishing in the wrong pond.

Having spent the last 4 months in the Bay area I can say with confidence that the pool of women is NOT as well rounded and numerous as the east coast. If you want a vibrant personal life I recommend not coming to San Fran.
> The problem with the KDE4 was that people were adopting it too early.

Don't you mean that it was released too early? People will in general install and use the released version and complain if it's not good enough.

> You are right, both sides are to blame, but this don’t make any of the them better.

(Both sides refer to the broadcast/online media & commercial/political ad campaigns)

Blame can only be placed on either party if there exists the prior assumption that people should believe all things which are presented to them as fact. If this assumption does not exist and without facilities responsible for fact-checking then it's only the individual that is responsible for dividing fact from fiction.
Definitely not as crazy as some of the other posts here, but it felt like a hacky work around for something that probably wasn't really a problem.

I'm not familiar with Salt, but it looks interesting!

Does Salt allow you to run from an already-built (but minimal) Arch installation? The base Darch images (godarch/arch) is bootstrapped manually.

Would I have to create a godarch/arch-salt image that is bootstrapped from salt files, so that you could further salt the image?

How would salt handle the inheritance that Docker provides?
Hey everyone, if you're looking for a fantastic blog engine, I want to tell you about Ghost: https://ghost.org

I found Ghost while looking for a new blog engine for my company. My first instinct was to use Medium as well, but I ended up hitting a lot of issues because it was impossible for us to customize it (add custom javascript, charts, disable the lame "highlights", custom domain was not free, etc...).

1. Ghost is open source, developed by a foundation in the open. They make their revenue open, their issue tracker, their code, everything.

2. Ghost is self-hostable, as well as hosted on a paid plan. The paid plan is a little pricy (https://ghost.org/pricing/) but I recommend it if this is for a company blog.

3. Ghost is beautiful out of the box. Here is the default theme: https://blog.ghost.org -- Here is a slightly customized theme: https://articles.hsreplay.net

4. Ghost has an excellent featureset. It's powered by Markdown and has a wonderful markdown editor in its admin/authorship interface. It also supports authors, editors, contributors, drafts, publishing schedules, tags, etc.

Seriously, try it out. I'm not affiliated, just a huge fan. I want to see more people use and support these fantastic open source tools, rather than complain about Medium like there's no alternative.
What do people use medium for? To duplicate their blog posts? Can you put any content on it? Even controversial topics?

Why would one use Void instead of NixOS or another Nix-based distro?
This can't work for a simple reason. Spam. What's stopping anyone from flooding a page with specific keywords which might be completely unrelated to the content of the page, or the page itself providing too little real info on the searched keyword. It's exactly for reasons like these that Google considers a variety of factors for ranking pages.

Well, it was in the early 2000s so I doubt wireless would have given any reasonable bandwidth. Sounds more like https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free-space_optical_communica... at least that's what we had those days.
Longer poles. It started out on I think 18”. Pretty much enough to clear the edge of the roof of the main building. We ended up putting it on a ten foot three pole stand.

That blew off during a hurricane the same year :)
I was looking at this page the other day, since I've been interested in hosting something like a Mastodon instance for friends. But, I'm not sure what my responsibilities as a host and admin would be under some of the new U.S. legislation (like the CLOUD Act.) Those laws seem to directly contend with my desire to protect user's privacy and data.
If Google is an option, put your keywords in quotes.
Did many migrants to Israel adopt new Hebrew last names when they arrived?

Genuinely curious if a familyname like "Nissan" would have been found among Jewish populations prior to the revival of Hebrew as a spoken language?
A long time ago (early 1990's, IIRC), I came across a Novell Netware LAN in which none of the Mac OS clients could print to a then-very-costly laser printer shared on the network if a particular a Windows 3.0 client elsewhere the LAN was powered off.

It turns out that when the costly printer was purchased, there wasn't a Mac OS driver available for it, so the people who installed the LAN created their own homemade print queue management system, relying on a batch file running permanently in that one Windows client. The batch file would take .eps files, saved on a shared folder by the Mac clients, and send them to the network printer using Windows printer drivers. Whenever that Windows client freezed, was reset, or was powered off, printing to that one printer would stop working for all the Macs at the same time.
Your own domains are orders of magnitude safer from that in general, so I think "our own domain + content in a form we can quickly mirror to another provider" qualifies as your own platform.
Same here, but maybe my sample size of "we'r all using tiling WMs" versus "I'm on Ubuntu and thus use Unity" is too small :P

Odd; I've run the musl version for years without issue. What kinds of failure did you see?

The only thing I've seen is that WebKit on musl has broken JavaScript, which I suppose would be a big issue for some people.
We use ghost as well, can't say enough good things about it. Digital Ocean also has a pre-configured droplet for it that makes installation / testing pretty seamless.

Just the other day I heard NPR say “Asssssault Rifle with highhhh capacity magazine” (emphasis theirs) when discussing an AR-15, which is not an assault rifle, and its standard 30-round magazine.

I can get most right wingers to admit they know Fox is biased towards republicans. What amazes me is how many left wingers will vehemently deny groups like NPR, NYT, Bezos Post etc are biased in their coverage to an equal or greater magnitude. They won’t blink when the paper who sold us the Iraq war WMD story runs an inflammatory headline with “sources familiar with a persons thinking” as their support.
That is exactly how I learned how things worked.
He should have asked for that and then walked away from the table.

Yeah I can’t remember what it was. Someone said laser link above, I feel like it was microwave - I do remember being concerned we’d cook birds.
Do I understand correctly, the land of the free has appointed a bunch of authoritarians who push for censorship like in the peak of communism, the very thing America tried to fight for years? How is that not a treason? Why those people are not locked up?
You are confusing sex liberation, which is all about how sexuality is vilified or accepted in society, with women's rights.

They are both important topics and there can be often overlaps but they are ultimately different topics.
Yes, have a look at how I bootstrap an Arch installation: https://github.com/atmoz/workstation-formula/blob/master/boo...

All you have to do is install Salt, and then you can run salt-call to apply states.

Yes, Salt states can depend on other states, and you could choose to apply only selected states.
It's like the early days of cryptography. Everybody was rolling their own algorithms because no one realized how hard it is to do that properly. Eventually we all wised up. I'm hopeful that DP will follow a similar path.
I don't see anything in these articles that proves that climate change is either the primary proximate cause or a necessary cause for the migration from the Middle East to Europe. It is still more simply explained by political expediency than it is by climate change.
This only finds things that are in some kind of RSS or Atom feed, but inoreader (with a Professional account) can keyword-search every public article that they have in their index. It doesn't return results quickly, and there is often blogspam, but it does find interesting things as well. A screenshot of the search options: https://i.imgur.com/fIzl2cp.png

Reminds me how the Russian Buzzer UVB-76 works. Hams listening to the station determined it was literally just a microphone in front of some tone generator, because occasionally you'd hear conversations between soldiers in the background.
Yes, exactly. If the majority doesn't agree with it, it shouldn't pass.
I don't believe you can use HTTPS with a custom domain (a domain that doesn't end in github.io or amazonaws.com), with GitHub pages or S3.

Two free choices I'm aware of, for hosting at a URL that both future-proofs your choice of hosting provider and provides end-to-end encryption to site visitors, are the free CloudFlare plan in front of GitHub or S3 (or any other static hosting service), and the free hosting plan on Netlify.
You are an evil, cruel person. The company was called "Datsun" when he got the domain.
Still called IOS (well, there's also IOS-XE, IOS-XR, NX-OS... but that's a different story). Why would they change the name?
In "Peak" by Anders Ericsson, he alludes to a few principles that makes learning into deliberate practice: setting small goals, getting expert feedback, focusing and removing distractions, and being somewhat discomforted. This article is familiar to that last point. To get the most out of learning, according to Ericsson, you should be in the 'yellow zone': not where you feel comfortable and easy, but also not reaching fight-flight-freeze mode either.

Getting in depth with a subject is painful. And its easy to waste time and effort. But it can be less painful if you're smart about it.

If you're tracking your progress, and you're aware what that next 5% looks like, that's much easier than trying to go for 100% each time. Getting feedback is critical too, and having that person help you set short, challenging but achievable goals makes a big difference so you aren't moving too quickly or slowly. Having peers who you can relate with and socialize your challenges with makes motivation easier. And you really need to set a time and place on a recurring basis, where the physical environment sets you up to be successful.

That's putting it mildly! I host a (small) static webpage on AWS S3 + CloudFront, and my monthly bill is 56 cents.
As I read it the article has two parallel points.

One is that the game Civilization advances a supposedly dangerous narrative about the myth of progress. Another is that, in gameplay terms, this infinite expansion and growth leads to a grindy end game.

You seem to be saying that the latter is the real point, and that by addressing the former I'm missing the point. I think the former is the more important point and I feel like I did a reasonably good job of being responsive to it, and I feel that cryptic comments telling me I'm missing the point are unfairly dismissive.
Static site generator + static site hosting + JavaScript based comment system like disqus is a great combo. You can generate in a container off markdown using something like Hugo and host on S3. I’ve got free tier werker pulling my repo, building it, then deploying it to CloudFiles. All I do is commit the markdown changes to github.
Liedtke was right.

If it can be done outside the kernel, it shouldn't be in the kernel.
I agree with you; the sentiment here is right, but it's unrealistic to try and change the mindset of so many people.

In my experience, 'the masses' are bright enough that they will drop a service when it's no longer useful to them, or when something better comes along. After all, they adopted FB in the first place, right?

If you're opposed to the services, the best you can do is abstain from them and share your reasons why with anyone who cares to ask, but don't bother preaching. It might be as effective to be a loud exception: as an example, how could a public agency organize a public forum via FB if all citizens aren't using FB? By standing out from these services, inclusive groups will have to accomodate their members who are outside of them. That's all we can ask for.

People are giving their attention, personal information, and money via these social services, but maybe they can afford to spend it there. Otherwise they would stop, no?
Since you appear to have a background that includes search and Google I thought I would ask you or anyone else a tangential question - with more than 30 Trillion sites[1] on the internet how is the crawling ever completed before it needs to be re-indexed again?

I'm imagining that "the frontier" a crawler needs to crawl is actually a distributed queue and that crawlers are massively parallelized. I'm also imagining the frontier is bucketed by its indexing frequency i.e daily, weekly monthly etc. Is that close? Might you have any resources on how this is architected at large search providers?

Whatever man, I think it sucks.
By the sounds of it, you could do this currently.

1) Create a root image for your use that installs Salt in your Arch image. See here: https://github.com/pauldotknopf/darch-recipes/blob/master/ba...

2) For the rest of your recipes/layers, create a script/bash file like you would normally, but just pass execution to Salt.

I'll look into Salt more. Maybe there is a way to extend Darch to support different "executors" to support things like bash/Salt/Puppet/etc.

Gnome 3 is everywhere because it is the default in all the major distributions but this doesn't mean people like it. I personally think it actually is the weirdest DE ever and only popular for political reasons.
I was expecting some more points on how Google actually does scary things, too. I can recount more points off the top of my head than this article lists and the headline seems to suggest that this would be the main-point of the article. Instead, it's mostly just a platform for this François Chollet's opinion, which is even biased into quite the opposite direction.
That is a bit like saying "I never understood why people who can self-host video put it on YouTube". Most times your content will never reach a significant audience (if this is your goal), platforms like Medium/YouTube/Flickr/500px make discovery easier.
Years ago, I was playing Prince of Persia: The Sands of Time, a lot. As the game was quite hard, I died often and every death resulted in huge loading times. After hours of game play I found out that every load was showing the exact same animation and took about the same time to load.
I browsed the game folder and found a video file with the exact same animation. Replaced it with a 1 second video file and guess what, it worked. Never felt more like a hacker again.
To be fair wikipedia compressed without images is pretty small. A couple tens of gigs no more than 80. You can download it to your phone and there are apps to view it all. Not sure how larger it is decompressed but 2 TB sounds like overkill. But yeah wikipedia would be a good way to test it.

Also did you mean every single wikipedia site or just the English one? I'm thinking just the English one's sufficient.
Oh yeah. I think it's almost like there's a really active part of my brain that does programming... If I wake up in the middle of the night, if I start thinking about my latest project, bam, I'm wide awake and going back to sleep is way off.

It's almost like the old crock of "you only use 10% of your brain"... when I wake up, I'm on 10% mode, but programming thoughts spin up the whole engine.

Your comment fits with my experience. When I was newer to night cycling I did not think about the angle of my light. I do not remember precisely if someone complained to me or if I was blinded by other cyclists' lights, but I did eventually start pointing my light entirely towards the ground.
To me it is amazing that people trust Google and Amazon more than Apple. I am anti Apple devices so I trust Google more than Apple but I do acknowledge that might be my bias. But I am shocked that it is something others do as well. As far as Facebook goes I stopped using it not because of privacy concerns alone but rather because of Facebook philosophy of corraling the web inside facebook.
Solution is correct, but you'll never outshine others' headlights shining into your eyes. It's more important that others' bright headlights adjust quickly enough that they do not shine into your eyes. Since the advent on Xenon lights headlights need to automatically adjust so they don't blind drivers. They are just not fast enough or smart enough (shining over a hill crest).

In what context can the word "progress" be used to describe the state cementing its absolute power by seizing private property?
Well, most of the magic of hardware routers also comes in the form of hardware acceleration of the actual data plane - ie. L3 switching - on the silicon itself. That's what makes them fast and so expensive. That sort of mechanism doesn't map nicely into the Linux interface paradigm (unless you do things like exporting kernel routes into the hardware, but that's borderline absurd).

I think even if the driver were to be implemented in kernelspace, it would still probably not expose any of it's physical interfaces to userspace as plain ethernet devices, maybe apart from virtual/mgmt ones to run SSH on, and perhaps one so that the kernel can handle packets that the router doesn't have flows programmed for (like in OpenFlow).

> The idea of sending the sound of gunfire into a peaceful rally with armed cops nearby is frightening.

William Burroughs circa 1970 on using portable tape recorders for the same effect:

AS A FRONT LINE WEAPON TO PRODUCE AND ESCALATE RIOTS There is nothing mystical about this operation. Riot sound effects can produce an actual riot in a riot situation. RECORDED POLICE WHISTLES WILL DRAW COPS. RECORDED GUNSHOTS, AND THEIR GUNS ARE OUT.

Here is a run of the mill, pre-riot situation. Protesters have been urged to demonstrate peacefully, police and guardsmen to exercise restraint. Ten tape recorders strapped under their coats, playback, and record controlled from lapel buttons. They have prerecorded riot sound effects from Chicago, Paris, Mexico City, Kent/Ohio. If they adjust sound levels of recordings to surrounding sound levels, they will not be detected. Police scuffle with the demonstrators.

Does GitHub not push its static content from a traditional CDN, or something effectively simulating a CDN (just a lot of servers spread across the globe)? I don't know offhand, it'd be surprising if they don't given the scale in question.

Assuming a site like Medium is going to stand for freedom of speech is foolish. Of course they aren’t. They are for profit.

This silly mindset is way too common. Don’t trust for profit companies like Twitter, Reddit, YouTube, etc to be bastions of freedom of speech. They will do whatever is best for their shareholders.

Protecting freedom is why we need to keep it feasible and affordable to be able to host your own site.

Good one, my first full-time job was a Junior Position at a software development company. Got there quite enthusiastic but soon was disillusioned by the treatment stuck there for some time, it was miserable until I got an offer to swap jobs and now I am at new company doing the same job but only with much more supportive people around me which personally matters to me more than the pay.

Tho I am thankful for the bad experience I learned a lot about many different non job related things there.
Aahahaha, I work for a company that does P2P internet links over RF. When I got to > "all of them would disconnect at the same time - every day." semi truck was my first thought!

What giant corporations don't want to build their own sites?

>"It isn't that people can't, it's that they would rather pay for it with money or data instead of time."

There might be a sea change in this though. And I think with things like Squarespace et al you can create a slick looking site for yourself with both minimal time and cost.
The lights are too small.

Little pinpoints of light will interact badly with optical flaws in the eye, particularly for those who have had eye surgery. They also obviously need to be brighter per area to reach a given level of total brightness.

Large flat panels are best. Note that this does not mean unfocused. A panel can be an array of tightly packed LEDs that are individually focused, and from a distance you couldn't tell that there were individual elements. Panels 24x18 inches would greatly reduce the problem of pinpoint brightness.
