I drive a 30 year old vehicle at times, replaced the engine with a japanese engine at around 60k on it, at a cost of around $2,000 with new timing belt and associated accessories/pumps/etc. The engine is rock solid still pushing out about 450 HP but the suspension, frame, and body are pretty beat at ~200k miles on the car. I would say you really aren't going to have an enjoyable car at much more than 130-150k miles, whether or not the drivetrain is replaced. I did a good amount of work in college on fatigue cycles in metals, and with our roads and infrastructure deteriorating this is only going to decrease the usable life of an average frame/suspension.
Yeah! English passports will be blue again, like God intended.
I always thought that DevOps are developers who can do ops. But in recent years I see more and more people calling themselves DevOps, even all they do is ops with simple scripting.

I think we need a new name for developers who run their code in prod, as DevOps is diluted.

So, I’m this light name of the article is utter BS. As devs we deal with a lot of different databases, be is SQL, NO SQL or graph and dealing with them is part of our job. If all you do is run stuff and release - you don’t have Dec component, so you just Ops.

Wouldn't the main definition of OOP be defined as merging data and functions into a single unit? When using libraries, I find this concept unavoidable for UI and games.

I agree though, that having the entire program be a graph of objects is actually usually the worst pattern.
This is just such complete and utter nonsense it's hard to know where to start.

> Can you ship with your own version of GNOME different from the currently running one?

I'm confused. GNOME is a desktop environment. It implements a task bar, a control panel, a way to set your desktop wallpaper etc. Why would you ship GNOME?

Maybe you meant shipping a proprietary application that uses a GTK version that is different than the OS-provided GNOME uses?

If so, of course you can. GTK is a bunch of shared objects that generate system calls, X messages, etc. It has no reason to interfere with the OS-provided GTK as long as it's got everything it needs in your bundle.
It's not just column order. Sometimes the columns you select affect performance of the query.
ok, so that's like the change of an ssh-key. i feel it's to easily ignored, yet at the same time i have no better idea how to make this more safe without being annoying. it's at least better than nothing.

also interesting what they write about the perception of finger-prints. i agree with their assessment and conclusion that using the term finger-print may confuse people because they think finger-prints should be secret. but i feel that the real problem is the public perception of what a finger-print is. we are leaving finger-prints all over the place, to they are something very very public, and not at all secret, and this the analogy of a crypto-finger-print and a real finger-print is much better than what public opinion would have us believe.

That's was a classic in many different society in many different time... Have "non standard" life for most people means a rapidly evolving society that push innovation, experimentation and freedom. The exact opposite of modern society... Also the exact opposite of classic industrialized society because even if we are in CNC era mass production to be economically sustainable still need standard repetitive production.

IMO even when (if) we will arrive in the 3D printing industrial era we will remains for decades in "standard" society simply because even if we push 3D printing to incredible level becoming able to print nearly any kind of artifact we use daily it will still be an expensive slow process respect of a dedicated machinery.

Perhaps in a far far (and hypothetical) future when we will have easy and powerful 3D parametric CAD systems with fully interchangeable formats, with built-in CAE easily accessible to nearly anyone at least for basic simulation, with a so advanced machining that we can simply drop our part in a directory and the software take care to suggest material we need and auto-produce it we will see a new "modern era" of personal development. And this future is unlikely for many thing, industrial control is one of them: if we are able to produce really "individually" anything we are free. Too free for actual ruling classes. We can produce positive innovation that impact some rich&powerful business, we can produce weapons, we can innovate in unwanted directions etc.

Remember formally in the western we are citizens in democracy, but that's formally, a results of our ancestors fights, that was never really complete and vanish more and more every days.
IMO if no Rust Foundation already exists, it should. I don't chip in for much of anything, but I would chip in for this [1]. Of course, whatever I donate would be peanuts compared to corporate donors. Corporate donors might be fewer for now, but once GOOG/AAPL/FB/GE/GM/etc realize Rust's potential they should/would fork over big money to keep Rust going.

Steve, it's not my business to tell you what your career should be, and TBH I have no idea what your relationship is with the rest of the Rust dev team. But maybe you would be good at creating a Rust Foundation?

> I didn't criticize anyone.

> Accessibility is very important to me, and I'm not simply disregarding the vast majority of users.

Fair enough. The language you used did feel like it was intended to be a criticism (re "It's not Mozilla's fault that there are people out there who never bother to learn their computer") because the common complaint techies seem to make about people who are less computer literate is that they hadn't bothered to learn it (an argument you maintained in your last post too). When in fact it's often a case that they have tried but simply don't understand where to start, or they're not naturally used to that kind of activity (much like how I'm useless at writing songs regardless of how hard I used to try). And some people are just intimidated by computers so always second guess themselves even when they probably do know what they're doing.

> Recognizing there is a disconnect is the first step towards creating better systems and educational material for those systems.

At risk of degrading the discussion, technically I was the one who highlighted the problem in the context of creating better systems. You then went on to say it's not system’s (Mozilla’s) fault.

> What's better, one ten-second educational widget for a user which teachers them to better understand the system they use, or a prompt each and every time you want to download something?

That's an interesting question. The truthful answer is I don't know. I've worked with people who only needed to be shown something once and they picked it up straight away; but I've also worked with people who have no ability to remember how to operate a computer or were intimidated by it so would second guess themselves constantly and thus they needed the machine to walk them through each step of the process each and every time. I'm an unofficial tech support for my elderly neighbours (which is unfortunate for all parties involved because I don't use any of the platforms they run so spend most of my time making educated guesses) and they also benefit from repeated instructions.
This is the reason why there is a lot of talk about FDX[1]. I think it's a good idea but will take some time to gain acceptance.

Totally agree that there's room to look more water-y (depending on your application's needs).

One thing that can be done is playing around with the numbers / uniforms in the fragment shader to change the look. For many use cases you can get pretty far with that without actually changing the implementation in this demo.

If a more physically based level of realism is needed (like the water ripples on click in the demo that you linked) you can use techniques like height simulation based on a wave equation [1].

You'll of course need to balance realism with realtime feasibility - but often times getting a much better look comes down to tweaking some numbers until things look good!

You can still recycle frack water for use over and over again, which is increasingly common. By necessity water recycling has become a big business in the fracking industry.

"Sensing a chance for a big return, private-equity firms have invested more than $500 million into wastewater-disposal companies such as Solaris Water Midstream LLC, WaterBridge Resources LLC, Goodnight Midstream LLC and Oilfield Water Logistics LLC. There are roughly a dozen of these water-focused companies that analysts said could each be worth hundreds of millions of dollars. ... Some companies have a longer-term plan: recycling the wastewater to sell it back to drillers to reuse."

https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-next-big-bet-in-fracking-wa...

"The oil and gas industry is finding that less is more in the push to recycle water used in hydraulic fracturing. Slightly dirty water, it seems, does just as good a job as crystal clear when it comes to making an oil or gas well work. ... Until recently, many companies considered recycling too expensive or worried that using anything other than freshwater would reduce well output. But oil and gas companies are increasingly treating and reusing flowback water from wells, which unlike freshwater is very high in salt, with good results."

English law (technically the laws of England and Wales) are not "really, really good". English law is incorporated in contracts because of ubiquity. Over the years, and for historical reasons, English contract law has become a lingua franca (mirroring the English language) in international commerce - just as likely to be understood by a company in France as by a company in China. There's nothing inherently superior to English contract law versus that of other jurisdictions. In the US a similar phenomenon exists relative to corporate law - among the reasons Delaware is such a popular incorporation jurisdiction is that nationwide in each state the corporate law of Delaware is understood. In fact, in certain "national" law schools it's the only corporate law taught.

> Technically speaking I'm sure you're right. In practice it doesn't really matter though, if they did it that way it's either because it was easier or because that's the way they were used to doing it.

Yes but then the question is, why did they even bother? If GP is right that they picked a middleware that is known to only work properly on Windows, that pretty much means they decided to fuck themselves right from the start. I agree that generally, properly targeting Linux is harder for multiple reasons, but if you want to go multiplatform, make sure you build on a solid foundation.

I often ditched as much gear as I could. Sometimes it bit me in the ass though...one time in training we had to build entrenchments, but I'd left my e-tool behind. There's an old saying, "Pack light, freeze at night." I often chose to freeze. Infantry is not a comfortable life!
SDL is binary compatible on its major release (2.0) and will probably be forever at this point. libc++ only broke its ABI once when C++11 required it.

What else do you need to make games for Linux? If you are using Unity or Unreal its going to statically link all its dependencies anyway. Don't use libraries that break semver.
It sounds like his point is that even if there are fewer big banks, he might be able to buy/rent an apartment in more desirable areas of the city.

This does not imply that at all.
You may want to look at Qt. Qt brings a wide array of standard tooling, starting with `qmake`. It also has tons of libraries far beyond just graphical ones (most people don't know that). If you go with Qt flavored C++, the "standard" tooling story gets better.

Tho, it still won't be anything like ruby or node. Some Qt projects opt for cmake over qmake, for example. But at least getting your project bootstrapped is much simpler/faster.

> A large fraction of cars have never been driven on a 500 mile trip.

Consumers base buying decisions on the longest trip they expect to take.

Even if 360 days a year they commute for 10 miles, and then for 4th of July / Thanksgiving / winter holidays they take an extended 300+ mile road trip, they will consider a car capable of traveling 300+ miles.
Yeah, GM killing the Volt seems more a weird side effect of GM's manufacturing plant shell game than an intentional strategy. The Volt was original intended to be the "savior" of the venerable Hamtramck plant, as it was the future of what was to be built there. The original goal was to make more of the cars over time at Hamtramck resemble the Volt, which was closer to a cross-over in G1. The short-sighted decision for cost cutting in the G2 Volt was to push it more proper sedan-like to make it more like everything else that Hamtramck was producing. So the Volt shutting down was further short-sighted side effect of GM killing all sedans/Hamtramck.

Obvious rumors are that GM is already in the works on a new cross-over PHEV. It's dumb that the sedan-ification of the Volt brand between G1 and G2 probably means that it will be yet another new brand instead of just the obvious Volt G3. (It's also a dumb shame that GM didn't actually save Hamtramck in what could have been a smart move of electrifying more of it and moving it all more cross-over-esque according to the original Volt plan.)
Anything with a Cquery plugin. (I personally use VS Code, but cquery is the important part)
There's no one type, and it depends on the company. But a general archetype which seems to reoccur is that of the generalist.

Early on, people wear a lot of hats, which means they get to be involved in a lot of different parts of the company and its growth. At a certain stage, teams compartmentalize, and people who don't like being isolated to one or two teams tend to get frustrated with companies as they become more structured.

There's also often a phase where that structure is just starting to be formed, and it can be very awkward and unappealing to people as it plays out.

No. I expected them to compile their game for the system and try to run it. If it didn't, it would be immediately obvious because the issues were so obvious.

The next step would be to upgrade the system to Debian testing, and then check again. If it still doesn't work, upgrade to Debian Sid, and then check again.

If it worked on any of those, report that and everybody knows in what version the issues will be fixed. If it doesn't work in any of those, go over your marketing and remove claims about linux compatibility. The engineering side of this is less than one work day of one developer. It's literally installing, compiling, starting, upgrading, compiling, starting, upgrading, compiling, starting.

The next step is to figure out in what component an error is, and get the latest upstream version of that component. Then, if the problem still persists, file a bug report against upstream, not against Debian. At that point, you are mostly done, and can at least claim to having done your part.

This isn't magic, nor is it difficult nor time-consuming. Heck, I would do it for free on some weekend if I were given access.
Bamboo, coconut, neem and maybe banana are considered "wonder trees or plants", IIRC, because each has many uses. Banana maybe a bit less than the other three. Also garlic for health (neem is known for health uses but also has many uses).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Azadirachta_indica

In India neem cake (residue after extracting oil from neem seeds) is fed to cattle and used as an organic fertilizer (IIRC, as are some other oilseed cakes, some of them are used as feed in aquaculture too), fresh young neem leaves are made into a paste/curry and eaten in some states (good for purifying the blood and skin and getting rid of worms), neem twigs are used as toothbrushes (the germicidal properties help), neem oil is applied on cattle (and sometimes humans use it) to keep away flies and insects, etc. etc.

For banana, apart from eating the ripe fruit, in southern states at least, the raw fruit is also cooked, the flowers and stems are also eaten as vegetables in curries (dry or wet), the leaves are used as plates for eating (thrown after one use), etc.

It's really amazing the number of different uses that many plants and trees have been put to, traditionally. I read a lot about this for Indian plants in a government research institute's publications some time ago. Fuel, food, timber, other construction material, medicine (both external and internal), are some of the uses known.
