Sure and this is to be expected. It costs time and money to align yourself with someone else's implementation and unless your customers demand alignment (e.g. S3-compatible storage interfaces), you're probably not going bother.

Again, this comes down to cost-benefit calculations. If some companies find that proprietary feature X from cloud Y provides a bigger (perceived) return on investment than not using feature X, then they are likely to use it. If company X later shafts them, they have to swallow more costs to migrate away but hopefully (for them) they took this possibility into consideration when they made their original decision.
Simple really, the US action while horrific pales in comparison to the actions committed by the Axis powers. Let alone the bombing of Axis cities to close out the war. Yet even know the US action still pales compared to what some nations have done since.

Yes the bomb is bad but it is by far not the worse thing that a government has done to the people of another or its own.
Cyberpunk [1990] Documentary

"CYBERPUNK is Marianne Trench's stylistic documentary about the cyberpunk movement of the 1980s. William Gibson, author of cyberpunk classic Neuromancer, and Timothy Leary, famous advocate of psychedelic drugs, share their thoughts on the future of society and technology.

While looking a bit dated now, this film provides an interesting insight into the cyberpunk movement of the 80's. The feeling at the time was there was some overlap between this new technical age we were entering vs the counter culture of the 1960s."

Article's author explains: "Unfortunately Alexa doesn’t have intelligence on the amount of visitors for this site." He goes on to describe additional data from informer.com, similarweb.com, etc - and to explain that the site actually strives not to be ranked well - as part of their business model.
Yeah, the author needs to either remove that or clarify that point. That being said, I think the author means that all of these new type faces are very similar and so they may be infringing. Or that the companies want a familiar type face but don't want to pay for it, so they commission a look-a-like. But, that's just a very large grasp on my part from reading the article.
> But when you're still in the "how does this work? Why won't this work? It worked!" phase, having less boilerplate, and fewer non-problem domain concerns (types? modules? tuples? Say what you mean, Old Man!) might be really valuable

However, modern php isnt being sold as index.php and a mysql connection. It's Doctrine, composer and laravel/symphony. Which have their fair share of boilerplate.

>I think the best thing I remember about PHP is probably its online manual. Each library function had a few full use cases underneath

The problem with PHP is that you need the online manual everytime you want to use a function because the argument order is so
inconsistent.

Panera had interesting CEO.

Shaich partly blames activist hedge funds, many of which buy shares in companies with the aim of pushing their management to make decisions that drive their stock prices up within a few months. According to Shaich, this makes it more difficult to invest in long-term projects, and create sustainable jobs.

Panera had its own encounters with activist investors. In 2007, the Shamrock Activist Value Fund bought a stake in the company, and, in 2015, Luxor Capital did the same thing. “I had activists twice—I almost lost this company,” Shaich told me.

It's also easier and faster. If you have lots of practice using cheap leather, why not try building it from that first. It was like the plastic of the day. Can be molded to any shape, and it was extremely strong.
I replaced the original headline from "The monster atomic bomb that was too big to use" to "The Tsar Bomba was Nerfed", hope that's okay.
It points out what was, to me, a new and most surprising fact.
Key quote FTA:

"Before it was ready to be tested, the uranium layers that would have helped the bomb achieve its enormous yield were replaced with layers of lead, which lessened the intensity of the nuclear reaction.

The Soviets had built a weapon so powerful that they were unwilling to even test it at its full capacity. "

LARPing is fun.

These guys even went to ancient tombs (Which at a guess although fake, possibly hundreds of years old fake)

As the histories and anthropologies seem to make the past more and more complex and interesting as they keep inventing new ideas, does it make the world a better place even if they are are nonsense?

There would be untold true stories that are amazing and lost forever, so it's kinda not cheating and I really was sad having loved visiting the Derinkuyu underground city but finding out it was fake years later. Did I need to know the truth.....

But I feel like supporting nonsense like this isn't good. Believing made up stuff creates dogma, and we kill each other over dogma.

Packet.net (bare metal cloud hosting vendor) have ARM instances.
You could decrease population just by removing perverse incentives associated with population growth (e.g. religious and economic power being two big examples - but fat chance of those going away).
We need a powerbank with a built-in Bluetooth to 3.5 mm audio interface. People tend to carry a powerbank around anyway, and having the Bluetooth thing built into it will ensure that this device will never run out of battery. Yes it's going to be a niche product, but some people will love it a lot.
Anecdotally, Sony BT headsets are pretty good (I'm currently on my fourth set, I wear them out eventually).

In my personal experience they have decent sound, pair reasonably easily (through NFC and "normally"), and the connection is pretty stable.

Pairing partner were various Samsung Galaxies.

I recommend Sony BT headphones.

That said, I also use the 3.5mm jack regularly :-)

Exactly. I bought Bluetooth headphones to listen to music at work & home, and it was all fine... until I decided to watch some TV shows in my free time. It was then that I realized I have 0.5 - 1.5s lag in audio (growing with time), which made movies unwatchable. Very quickly I bought two pairs of wired headphones instead.
You're probably not too far off in that assessment. I find myself going to the description only if the video says there are links to follow in it, or if I really like the music and I want to see if they are credited (which is how I discovered the band Foreign Fields, watching the John Neeman Tools blacksmithing videos).
The article often touches a lot of things which probably have a lot of interesting depth, but then it moves on to the next one. It could at least cite more primary sources so I'd know what to read for more.
This would be far more confusing than an annotation.

Really? Someone investigating with journalists, and may be considered a journalists themselves (?), actually publishes the address of someone that they are accusing of running a scam?

There can only be two reasons for doing something like that:

a) You're an idiot, and didn't consider the implications.

b) You're asking for the public to exact a justice that you think you can't.

There was episode of BSDNow where they interviewed Jordan Hubbard about this: https://www.freebsdnews.com/2015/10/31/bsdnow-tv-episode-113...

Personally, I never found startup time to be much of a problem, on any OS. But having an init system that automatically restarts crashed services and is able to properly shutdown services including any child process they might have spawned sounds nice.

One thing I do like a lot about the BSD init system is that the interface is a text file with a simple format. I hope when they replace good old rc, they keep the interface as simple as that.

That's the same problem as Raspberry Pi. For output-only digital signals there are some 5V peripherals that will accept 3V3 input levels. And for input-only, you can use a potential divider.

It's bidirectional where you need a proper level shifter. But you can get really small cheap ones. I've used them a lot on I2C interfaces. If you're careful you can design the entire system around I2C and then you only need a single level shifter.

But I've not built many things around ESP8266 just yet. Still learning about it. It's an incredibly cheap and powerful platform though.

S3 is the bigget coupling, or data storage. Why do you think containerization threatens AWS? It doesn't. Vendor lockin happens naturally, IAM are a vendor lock in feature, and I didn't see a lot people even mention about it. Migration off those sruff is incredibly hard and things can easily go wrong.
This is absolutely bizarre. Why can't they just leave the option to view old ones there, but disallow new annotations? Secondly, why are they using click-through rate as a metric to gauge usefulness? In instructional videos annotations tend to be informative rather than something to click on.

I wouldn't say it's the same.

What these shops are doing is create scarcity based on real demand. While it is somehow artificially created, the customers are real. The exclusivity of the experience then creates more demand.

What the article describes is different. They would be the same only if these restaurants would be paying friends to keep the restaurant busy, to later sell it at a higher price.
There's nothing like putting Circular side-by-side with a handful of its imitators to demonstrate how much tighter, sharper, and better-balanced Circular is than any of them.
DT fusion reactors have inherent diseconomies of scale. That's because their power output is limited by what the first wall can withstand. By the square-cube law, the volumetric power density of a DT reactor must go down as its linear dimensions increase.

This is not just quibbling, since bad power density is a huge problem with fusion.

Look at ITER. The volumetric power density (gross fusion power/volume of reactor proper, not including the building or auxiliary equipment) is 0.05 MW/m^3. Compare that to a PWR primary reactor vessel, which have a power density around 20 MW/m^3. The smaller designs like ARC or Lockheed's concept have power density around 0.5 MW/m^3.
Really? If that's the case, you think it's too difficult for them to just say, "Thank you for your post, but we are doing what the spec says to do, see the relevant portion here: ..."? Courtesy is a thing. At least I think it still is.

your attempt to rationalize the Libya catastrophe is shameful. We selected a country and obliterated it, created something much worse as a result. Today there are flourishing slave markets in Libya. The outcomes were well known at the time of the action

The views you are expressing are no longer the global consensus, even among liberal apologists.

If the US truly intervened for humanitarian purposes, our interventions would look totally different.

And if anyone thinks the French are moral paragons, read the history of North Africa in the 20th century

> I can understand and feel your fathers frustration trying to use wireless headphones, on the other side if they never ever get rid of the headphone jack then users are going to end up never getting trained on how to use wireless headphones.

But why do you want to get rid of the headphone jack? For iPhone, this is a direct downgrade, loss of very useful functionality. That's why people are complaining; while companies seem to like trading utility for fashion all the time, this case was unprecedently blatant.

> Also at the end of the day I think there are adaptors that convert the jack into whatever port your phone has.

That's the trick though. Someone's gonna make money on the adapters :). Also, I start to think this was a move meant to "disrupt" the headphones market. Suddenly the perfectly good headphones no longer work for a big and rich chunk of people, and out come new wireless options. The conspiracist in me wonders whether people responsible for this decision have any ties to people selling AirPods and their alternatives :).
For every good experience like that, there is an equal and opposite bad one.

I have an X399 Taichi for my TR2. I'm using 2 older U.2 NVMe drives that have a legacy boot option rom that causes the board to hang 9/10 times at POST. The only option is to disable CSM, so it will only try to use the UEFI option rom. This works fine, EXCEPT that the CSM disable is lost every time the board looses power. Eg, that configuration setting is not properly saved to non-volatile storage.

When I reported this to ASrock (via email), I was told in very broken english to "re install windows". This is great advice, considering I'm running FreeBSD, not to mention that the entire issue happens at POST. Sigh.
At the current point in time, this is probably limited to ARM-specific workloads (such as if I need to run ARM binaries, or generate ARM binaries without the hassle of cross-compiling).

The long term, however, is where things start to get interesting. I suspect that by the second generation we're going to see ARM servers able to deliver a better price-per-core (and perhaps therefore price for computing performance) than the x86 alternatives. This will be particularly beneficial for applications which require a lot of CPU power and are highly parallelizable. Picture a workload that can take advantage of 64 cores, with ARM you can get this many cores for a lot less cost than x86.
Ok, now do traditional fiat money...

This is a good metaphor, but it's not perfect. You haven't explained how or why you'll be burying $1000 exactly 21 million times, every 10 minutes until 2140. Or why it becomes worthless immediately upon decryption... nobody can unbury the cash value of an individual Bitcoin, rendering it worthless, but they can be transferred instantly from party to party, which partially funds the ongoing operations of the network.

Even Satoshi himself cannot end Bitcoin at this point.

Even if he still lives, and has the keys to the large stash of Bitcoin he mined in the beginning, it could be a major market-altering event if he dumped them all at once, but it would likely not be the end of Bitcoin.

Sure, it's great marketing, with an extremely long con...
Interesting to see Source Code/Sans/Serif Pro left out of the discussion.
in ethernet's case, having another connector would be useless because all the other devices still use good old rj45.

RJ45 connectors are in terms of their size, already not that large considering the size of the cable they deal with. (CAT cable is far larger then a 3.5mm headphone cable).
The big advantage of stellarators vs. tokamaks is their lack of disruptions. Tokamak disruptions are a very serious problem that, if not well-solved, promise to put tokamaks into the technology garbage can. A disruption can, in the worst case, generate runaway relativistic electron beams that can melt holes through the first wall.

The first and primary goal of ITER is to show that the disruption problem can be and has been solved. If they don't do this, ITER will never be allowed to operate with a DT plasma. And they are still scrambling to solve the problem.
