As a ham operator the thing I noticed was the missing identification from the party talking.. just 'Helge Ingstad, turn starboard'. And so on. Never a 'Helge Ingstad, this is Sola <"on course so-and-so, speed so-and-so"..'.
Helge Instad didn't (according to the report, and no wonder) understand who they were talking to. Not that the personnel on board Helge Ingstad were much better.
When I hear about a collision between a warship and an oil tanker, I'd expect the warship to rip straight through the oil tanker, with devastating results.

I think you're seriously underestimating how big and heavy oil tanker are. The oil tanker in this case weighed roughly 20 times (with cargo) what the warship did. From the warships point of view they might as well have rammed an island.

Useful Facts on Project Management Software and Project Managers
Project management software enhance your business less profit because of the time wasted on juggling tiny tasks and a project manager manage an organization with proper planning, overseeing, and making strategies for that project.
I disagree that this is an example of the "cobra effect". That term properly refers to situations where efforts to improve a problem have misaligned incentives that wind up exacerbating the same problem.

Ideally, we'd have fulfilling, well-paid jobs for everyone. If we can't have that, at least robots don't suffer when you make them do mindless, repetitive tasks at high speed for no money.

The status quo is humans suffering in miserable jobs. A unionization push that results in better-paid, more humane jobs in the short term, and robots taking over the awful jobs in the long run seems like a net gain for humanity to me.

One way or another, we're going to have to figure out what humans do in an automated world, because the robots are coming for everyone's job, not just warehouse workers. (Unless climate change stress collapses society before then, which might happen)
Safari actually maintains a list of websites where they allow auto-play by default at ~/Library/Safari/SitesAllowedToAutoplay.plist. Most of them are video sites, such as YouTube, Twitch, Netflix, Nicovideo, etc. but they also have some non-video sites that heavily uses video, such as Amazon.

It's a binary plist, but you can view the content using:

plutil -p ~/Library/Safari/SitesAllowedToAutoplay.plist
If you're already deploying stuff on Kubernetes then why this over just packaging up the code into a container and running that? It's also probably using more resources to run the Knative stuff which would offset any scale-to-zero savings.

Is there really a big demand for this?

Yes, but the Sola TS was showing AIS data, so how come the Frigate didn't see it on their plot?
x32 isn't i386. It's x86_64 with truncated pointers.

There aren't many syscalls that return pointers; mmap() is one of them, and using MAP_32BIT means that the pointer will be 32-bit.

It's disgusting because it's undignified. Workers should receive a decent wage for work performed, not pressured to perform as fast as possible for gimmicks in an ever quicker race to the bottom to see who can wreck their health the fastest.

Capitalism isn't falling apart but neither is it a panacea. There are better systems, by most humane measures. Scandinavian social democracy, for example, other than being extremely expensive has its merits.

But anarcho-syndicalism et al rely on a variation of the adage "there's no bugs in the application I haven't written yet".

100% agreed, but I'm not so convinced it needs (much) kernel support (as per my other comment). I don't usually use much libc, so an -m32 that still made elf-x86_64 would probably be enough for me.

It is absolutely idiotic to have 64-bit pointers when I compile a program that uses less than 4 gigabytes of RAM. When such pointer values appear inside a struct, they not only waste half the memory, they effectively throw away half of the cache. -Knuth
I get a very similar experience using IPython from a terminal, sometimes copying code over from my main text editor (where I have linting, multiple cursors and other niceties). As I do a lot of plotting I use itermplot[1] to display inline graphics. When I'm done I copy everything using %history XX to a permanent home in libraries or standalone scripts.

Desired State Configuration is not supported by PowerShell Core v6, even on Windows. DSC is only supported by PowerShell v5 and earlier. This suggests to me that DSC has been abandoned

In contrast, .NET Core supports various old Windows-only features, such as COM and soon WinForms.

Awesome, how often do you plan to test it ?
Think of them as statements of probabilities. "while further investigation might be necessary to be 100% certain, the authorities determined that there his a high probability that the design is to blame for the sinking not the collision."

How certain should you be that there is a serious design flaw in a product before you feel it's warranted to warn others who own that product that there might be a problem.

Not entirely correct.. the 'først', in this context, translates a bit differently, something like "The war ship only performs a last-minute evasive maneuver" - which doesn't work that well in English.

So you have to turn the translated sentence around a bit: "The warship doesn't perform an evasive maneuver until the last moment".

ownCloud seems to be going for hosting small and medium sized businesses, I'm not sure what that means for big organizations in the future.

Our customers tend to be bigger, actually. Like the German federal government with 300K users, companies like Siemens, german Radio & TV stations (transferring over 1TB/day!). Our biggest deployment (in a single instance) is over 20 million users - see nextcloud.com/globalscale for how we pull that off. ownCloud has no equivalent solution for such installations and breaks down at about 50K users.

For home users or very small businesses, the difference might not be that big but the migrations we do for customers show time and again that there is a big improvement in performance and reliability, especially on large installations.

I don't think talking about spies or nukes is irrelevant or straw manning - they're pretty similar to hacking in that they are essentially weapons against foreign governments. As a government, it makes sense to try to keep up in the global arms race.

Anyways, as to your question -

In short:

The way I see it, China will not displace the US as a global power anytime soon. It may become a 2nd global power in addition to the US. I think a multipolar world is healthier than a unipolar world for the same reasons competition makes markets better.

I think much of the frenzy around China is a US-centric reaction to the them potentially losing its spot as clear #1, but the world is better off without a clear #1.

More details:

China is absolutely not a democracy the way the US is. I do agree the US treats its OWN people better than China. But I'm not a US citizen - thats not really relevant to me.

The US is historically much crueler to foreign enemies than any other country - no one else comes close to how many countries they have invaded, bombed, etc. We have already seen them invade and kill millions in Iraq under scarcity of oil. If things head towards scarcity again, who is to say they wouldn't do the same things again? China by comparison has mostly left other countries alone.

I care about how the power balance affects the rest of the world besides US/China. As do 6B others. I absolutely support people’s right to argue for their own benefit, but they must atleast recognize that is what they are doing. Honestly im really tired of seeing a constant default equivocation between “whats good for the US” and “whats good for the world”. Those are often different things.

It's better for a warship to be light and maneuverable than heavy and cumbersome. The days of slinging shells at each other are pretty much gone - and no amount of armour is going to save you from Exocet [1] in the way that getting out of the way and firing chaff/flares will.

You'd have to take editing into account. By any reasonable account, I saw a page that discussed it once, to have 100 readable words, you'd need to write 500-1000 words. Which means the time required goes to 5-10x. On the other hand, 200 words per day is pretty low, you could easily get up to 500-1000 words per day once you really get going.
Yeah, apperently there were 7 people on the bridge.. way too many. Everything becomes "somebody else knows what's going on".
I do wonder:

- Why approaching something thought to be a fixed construction didn't trigger any alarms, mechanical or mental? It doesn't matter if the "tanker" was a stationary part of the harbour or a moving vessel because just looking at the change in their relative positions would have indicated a collision course regardless.

- I suppose ships still have radars? Looking at a dot or an edge coming closer and closer on the radar screen should ring some bells.

- The tanker had their identification transponder on as expected: why did not the military vessel get red lights flashing somewhere even if they chose to not turn on theirs?

- Don't ships have any means to communicate emergencies? If the tanker couldn't contact the frigate by radio wouldn't the ship have deck lights or search lights or something that they could starting flashing, as a last resort, as soon as they observed that the frigate would in fact collide with the tanker's course? Heck, couldn't they even shoot flares at the frigate if that's really what it takes?

In the air, accidents usually happen these days because of several things go wrong in sequence. Everything is basically covered for either in procedures or by technology but given enough unlucky sequential failures in various systems makes it possible for something fatal to happen, and sometimes it does.

In contrast, and based on a couple of articles, this sounds like a trivial blunder.

Is there a more comprehensive failure analysis still being worked on, and to be published later?

EDIT: The tanker apparently did manage to contact the fregate by radio. And still they didn't "get it". I would like to see a more substantial breakdown of the causes rather than mere incompetence. Norwegians have lived and breathed the sea for ages, I generally do trust their ability to navigate a ship.
but they were on official navigation training exercise as part of NATO's massive Trident Juncture exercise.

Where they on a training exercise? The linked VG article makes it sound like the exercise was over and they where on their way home when the accident happened.

You gave them a 2% raise, the article mentions $18.60. We don't know if this is before or after tax, so let's say it's before.

If they work 40h a week, rent a single bedroom apartment at ~$1600 and the cost of living for one is ~$800 this leaves 2976 - 2400 = ~576 a month without special circumstances. In this case they don't have a car, drinks or meals outside the home, going out (movies/etc.), alcohol, dog, sport membership or travel and certainly no family. If they have one family member at ~600 a month they are down 24 dollars a month so they'd better not. [1]

Simply seeing that Amazon is doing so mindbogglingly well for itself that the value of their assets has grown by 52.65% in 2017[2] and while still holding ~22 billion dollars in reserve[3], workers are not adding some value (as is required in a Keynesian capitalist system) but an insane amount of value. And it is all trickling up while workers cannot afford to have a family.

Seems reasonable. Unionism hasn't historically been very successful outside of monopolistic industries but digital media seems a good place to experiment.

Worst case it'll bankrupt a company that won't really be missed. Best case we find a sustainable model for digital media. If I were a betting hominid, I'd say the former is more likely than the latter but you never know.

> That sounds more like incognito mode, no?

Yes, but you can have as many active sessions as you need instead of just two.

Incognito/InPrivate/whet-ever-other-browsers-call-the-feature tabs/windows share the same session so that gives you at most two active sessions: normal and incognito.

The "new session" option in IE can have many more. For a lot of workflows two is enough, but sometimes I want something like "a couple of distinct base users, a manager, and an admin" for testing more complex user workflows.

They were. And they were in one of the most busy shipping lanes (due to the port being nearby), and a narrow one. There was no reason in the world why they would have their AIS off.
