Couple of points on this.. it's interesting how ideological context perculates (and reverse perculate) through a movement.

(A) Catholic (an example, for contrast) music tends to be institutional: choirs, organs... Formal. You don't just play the organ for fun, it's a scheduled, authorized activity. It's not something that spreads or something that exists outside of its preallocated box.

(B) Hillsong's kind of music is also accessible. You don't need much exposure to play or appreciate it. This isn't exotic tribal music, for and by some specific culture of people (think of Jewish kleizmer for example). It's pop, the stuff anyone can listen to or play.

Ie, you can tell from the music that Hillsong is new/modern, youth oriented, and mainstream-oriented and international/multicultural.

You can tell from catholic music that it's tradition and institution oriented. You can tell from Jewish music that it's tribally oriented. All ideological linchpins of those communities.

Obviously the 99% approval rate is the result of extreme due diligence and strict submission criteria practiced by the covert agencies.

On a more serious note, the above could be true, though I believe there is plenty of evidence of approved warrants that should not have been. That would rather undermine the thesis.

I think this is a false equivalency. It was the case that you could be targeted, but this would be one case and a lot of resources were bound by this one case. Now, the process can be automated in such a way that everyone can be targeted simultaneously without much overhead.

The main problem is not that you could be targeted (like you said, that was always the case), but that everyone could be a target.

Purely anecdotal, but as a Simpsons fans many years ago (and not really following the show anymore), I think there are many of us who grew up with the Simpsons who simply don't have the time (as we've gotten older and have other chores and priorities to take care of first) to follow the show anymore.

I understand it can be frustrating, but keep in mind your beginning is different from other people's beginnings. It's similar to the problem of telling the story of an historical event. Where do you start? To analyze the root cause of e.g
WW1, you'd end up going back to the beginning of recorded history.

Part of learning to learn is learning to keep going through things even when you don't fully understand.
Under certain circumstances the government can force a person or corporation to produce speech that is true - for instance, they are allowed to force you to file your taxes. However, there has never been a case to my knowledge where the government has been able to compel a lie - and any attempt to do so would immediately be subject to a legal case over constitutionality.

The thesis of this product seems to be that Google glass failed due to poor design. I think that's an idea worth exploring and the execution here does look promising, but I'll hold off on judgement until other people can review the device. Here are my immediate, unsolicited, uncollected thoughts:

There are many issues that I worry about with this kind of device, but battery safety and battery life are most important to me. Since you are strapping lithium ion batteries to your head, it could be fatal if there is a manufacturing defect or someone can remotely exploit the device. Getting the battery right is likely going to make or break this product.

Social acceptance is yet another large hurdle. People do not take kindly to surreptitious film making. We already have enough problems with people glued to their phones and those are at least stored out of sight.

I would try my best to ditch the ring. This is the palm pilot stylus all over again.

I agree. One of the appeals of unikernels in my opinion is that (I think) they will eventually give us the things that Docker currently gives us, but with one less layer of abstraction (unikernels running on a VM orchestrator instead of containers running on a container orchestrator running on a VM orchestrator). I imagine that this is inevitable as a matter of efficiency, but it's probably such a small practical gain that we won't see much traction in the next decade.

To explain my username, I'm an organist. I'm not interested in going to a service that's nothing but a rock concert, but we've successfully incorporated some of these songs (Shout to the Lord comes to mind) successfully into a service that also includes standard liturgy, and I definitely enjoy them in that context. I'm not saying the genre isn't full of empty songs, but there are a few with merit in the lyrics.
Out of curiosity, how do you let everyone take the build process in a consistent way?

I've only used TS as a single dev but with multiple editors and they could have different version of TS from the other, I wonder what's the best way. Do you just help a guy with vim/vs code/IntelliJ/sublime/etc to set up to use auto TS compile and ask everyone to stick with a specific TS version? Or is it better to use something like Prepros to handle all the builds?

Thank you. I think you are right. I think it’s impossible to reach any sort of consensus when two groups have fundamentally different views.

I’m going to just try to stay out of it from now on. Not worth the time or energy. Especially when my view is the minority view.

FWIW I don’t believe it is any sort of quest towards immortality. My biggest problem is how Keynesian economics tends to favor the central banks who are able to create money out of nothing.

> We usually see wide-spread vulnerabilities in the middleware like OpenSSH

There has been exactly 1 remotely exploitable bug and exactly 1 information leak bug in openssh in more than a decade (I believe the exploit is actually more than a decade old, need to check though), it is by far the most secure daemon ever. It is hard to overstate just how much of an accomplishment that is. NOTHING matches it in security. This is even more impressive given how widespread it's usage it.

> We need authority if we are sharing peripherals.

I think you'll find that large websites ... just don't do this. The only real purpose of multiple processes on such webservers is administration.

> f we are not going to save memory and implement that as a static library ...

The reason you want to do this is that the slowest thing in modern processors is context-switching. Going from user-space to kernel space. If you have, say, a networking stack in user space you can avoid such context switching entirely. The speed gains are enormous, especially for webservers.

Ridiculous performance in networking also enables many more applications that just won't work without. What do you think about cluster-wide disks, for instance ? SQLite like databases that run against Petabyte-sized files, concurrently, safely. You're just not going to do that efficiently by having it done in the OS.
That's the intent. A lot of EU regulations are written in a way that could be interpreted in almost any way, making it impossible to be 100% compliant and leaving you at the mercy of politically-minded regulators.

> He challenged his engineers to design an inexpensive radio that could be installed in most vehicles

In the late 1970's, as a teen, I was given an old Motorola car radio. It was all metal, greenish blue, no plastic. It had vacuum tubes! And it actually worked. It was very well built. Like a tank. I opened it up for inspection. When powered on, it made a very quiet buzzing sound. There was a "vibrator" (yes that is what it was called), used with a transformer to get the high voltages for the tubes. With just a short lead connected to the antenna connector, it could receive nearby radio stations. It's speaker had the impedance matching transformer typical of vacuum tube equipment I had seen in TVs and radios.

As a teen I didn't realize how short life is and that radio might have been a good thing to hang on to.
Despite the criticisms, this is pretty awe-inspiring. I wish the US had big construction projects like this also.

It's not absurd at all. In situations where you need to do modulo arithmetic on array indices 1-based indexing forces you to shift the offset by 1.

So you think it is bad for folks in the FreeBSD project to not be able to freely insult others by misgendering them? Why is this such a problem for you?

These code of conducts all boil down to "don't be a dick." It's too bad we need them, but we clearly do. Certain groups (LGBT, minorities) tend to get more abuse than others, so issues involving them are often spelled out more explicitly.

All large organizations have written standards of conduct. Open source software projects these days are often large, and are made up of heterogeneous groups of people. It's obvious that CoCs can be useful just the same, to reduce ambiguity in conflict if nothing else.
That's true of a lot of long-running shows. Even if they don't become worse in the sense that individual episodes are worse taken in isolation, they're often just repetitious and, as you say, stuck in time.

You see this elsewhere too. In comic strips, for example, Dilbert is mostly stuck in some 90s version of cubicle life at a big company like Pac Bell. Don't really reaad it any longer but even when nothing is wrong with a given strip I've probably seen some version of it 10 times before.

> The vast majority of people just don't change the language frequently, and wouldn't do it even if it had a dedicated rotary switch on the side.

The vast majority of users in some countries may never change language, but there are other countries where multiple languages are officially spoken and where even members of the same household have different first languages.

For the phone form factor I would think that maybe language switching isn't as important since most people are not sharing their phones often, but for the iPad it might be more useful to be able to switch languages quickly.

I think it is economic and educational and the norms shifting. Their circumstances are increasingly implausible and things are pretty decomputerized. They have accidentally become a period piece as time passes them by.

While the house quality varies according to gag it is a large and well appointed house with one income from someone without a college degree from working at the plant in a physically undemanding is if not anchronistic increasingly less and less everyman representative. Even married people who are well off tend towards dual income households these days for one. The economy is far more service than industrial and the industrial has largely skilled up and automated. And that goes without discrediting of so many past tropes by time. Well meaning wholesome dolt manages to fail to fit the milieu in many ways and has been considered still overused decades ago even with their disapperance.
It's very difficult to find games that are bottlenecked by graphics cards nowadays (at 1440p60 or below). There are three major reasons why this is happening:

- Nvidia has been killing it in graphics card design relative to the competition. Consider that a GTX 1070, released 30 months ago, can go all the way to 1440p60 comfortably.

- Nearly every game has to be playable on consoles, and consoles are all running AMD's last generation chipset.

- 4K is still the "storm on the horizon" that no one's graphics cards are truly ready for in an affordable way.

All of that combined really means that raw graphics quality in games hasn't improved a lot in the past four years.

So, most games will continue to show increased performance the more clock you throw at a processor. Combine that with more and more games optimizing for more cores given the prevalence of 6-8 cores chips on the console market and in gaming PCs, and this should make sense to anyone.

It should be said: This is why cloud gaming is quickly becoming a real thing. Beyond connection speed, graphics cards were always a huge bottleneck in making that cost affordable to cloud providers. Today, the graphics card isn't a bottleneck, and all the cloud providers have an abundance of them in their data centers for AI-focused work. And if neither the cards nor the connection speed could handle 4K anyway...

I've also been through Epitech which is the school that greatly inspired 42 (same founders) and I would like to add some details on top of that.

Even if it's true that Epitech us mainly about coding, the program enforce a coding standard that is a huge part of the final grade of each coding project (small functions, 80 char per line of code...). Fom the second year, components decoupling and basic design patterns are part of the program.

Nevertheless, the school doesn't really make the most to teach basic good engineering practices or at least I don't remember (doc, tests, vendoring, observability...) and this is one of the main pain point.
Do you really believe "iPhones are hard to use" faithfully represents his overall critique? Objectively iPhones are not hard to use. Do you really feel that an iPhone's ease-of-use is reasonably compared to a "handheld engine-diagnostics module for Daewoo cars"?

The fact that an iPhone can literally be used out of the box with no user-manual (unlike an engine-diagnostic unit) is testament to its simplicity. I don't even know why I am arguing this point.

Does iOS get everything right? Nope. Is an ongoing conversation about UX important? Of course. My point is not that the author may or may not bring up some valid points, it's that he hung his whole piece off of an self serving, insincere title and sensational premise.

More and more we are declaring that there is so much noise on the web that it's ok to bait users with nonsense titles. Just a couple comments down someone advocates this. If you let principles like sincerity and honesty slip just to get attention you've let a piece of your integrity go which in turn mars what you are actually saying.

If what you are saying isn't interesting enough to warrant an interesting title, maybe you aren't as smart as you think you are, or what you have to say is less important than you think it is. Either way, don't hijack the attention of others to validate your own ego, work harder and earn the attention honestly.
If you object to a CoC (which is really the same damn thing as the GKCC, what kind of "punitive" measures can we take, really), then I really don't want you around the Octave community.

And yes, we've had our share of unpleasantness.

My objection to the GKCC is that rms is failing to address the actual problems such as the disadvantage of certain groups. I think CoC detractors think that the CoC is going to be used to unfairly punish them in ways they don't understand but, (1) there really isn't much punishing that could be done even if we tried and (2) every community already has an implicit CoC. Writing one only makes it explicit.

Wouldn't you rather know what the rules are instead of having to guess? Right now the rules already exist, but you might not know about them.

As I said I'm more on the Keynesian/Monetarist side, but you do have a valid point about how new money is introduced. Current central banks introduce new money in ways that disproportionately benefit banks, the rich, and of course the state. This is not surprising since banks, the rich, and the state chartered the central banks.

This is a separate point from the "what should money be?" debate.

There are other potential ways of introducing new money, especially in the digital age. I'm a fan of a smart version of the "money from helicopters" idea-- introduce money across the entire economy rather than just to the state (via bond purchases) or banks (via fed lending-to-lend).
