Well, that's the great conundrum. You consume media no matter where you get it, so not getting it from one place or another is not really gonna help you avoid "fake news".

What you see on blogs is no more reliable than what you see on FOX, which itself is no more reliable than what you see on youtube. It's pretty much all rubbish a lot of the time.

So yeah, you stay away from mainstream media, then you'll likely be consuming "shocking", and just as fake, media from some other source instead. That's just the preponderance of what's out there unfortunately. No avoiding it really.

Thinking about it game theoretically, it's probably smarter just to accept that there is fake media out there, and go ahead and consume media from whatever your favored sources are with that caveat in mind.

ie - It's fine to watch mainstream media. Certainly FOX, MSNBC, Wall Street Journal, CNN, BBC etc are all no worse than reading or watching anything else. Certainly no worse than anything you see on youtube. But you should "buy" stories like you'd "buy" anything else...

Caveat Emptor.
Python already existed when Ruby came out and before rails was a thing. I understand you don't care for the language but the main reason for its creation was to have a completely object-oriented (in the Smalltalk sense) scripting language which python just isn't. Personally, I like a language where everything is classes and methods and I don't have to remember to use a function rather than a method to get (for example) the length of arrays as I have to do in python
Since TFA talks a lot about i3 and dmenu, here are my scripts to have your most used commands on top in dmenu in i3:

> You may not directly or indirectly distribute the Unity Software, including the runtime portion of the Unity Software (the “Unity Runtime”), or your Project Content (if it incorporates the Unity Runtime) by means of streaming or broadcasting so that any portion of the Unity Software is primarily executed on or simulated by the cloud or a remote server and transmitted over the Internet or other network to end user devices without a separate license or authorization from Unity.

These terms are incredibly vague. Makes it sound like you cannot run your own dedicated server for multiplayer without being in breach of the new terms. If Unity forces their new multiplayer hosted service on their users, I (and I foresee many others) will immediately start transitioning to Unreal.

Confluence works really well. It's easy to search through, edit, and create diagrams.
Hooking up three monitors, 2 of which are 4k onto Ubuntu is the most frustrating thing I've done with that OS. It just works on OSX though.

Rough spots is a good way to describe it. Overall it works... But not without effort and competence.
Seems like the best path forward for a current cloud Unity provider would be to move from managed Unity to one you can deploy yourself. Make it so it’s trivial to run your own and move the licensed use to the game developer instead of the cloud service.

EDIT: after reading the actual terms it seems like even game developers can’t do this without violating terms. Unity really wants this to be something they wholly own. Yikes
> Font rendering the Apple way is a style choice at best.

Given how much of a hacker's usage of a computer is working with text (reading pages, writing code and documentation, taking notes) it's a style choice that actually has a significant impact.

(By the way, macOS Mojave deprecates subpixel antialiasing — a poor decision when there are many non-hidpi displays still being used)
The great thing about steganography is that as long as information is expected to arrive unmolested and unchanged you can't defeat it - at least as long as encryption is used along side it. Lets say you have an image, maybe lena.jpg or whatever, it's difficult to find out whether the image contains a hidden message or is an 'original' or has even been degraded because people don't know how to use photoshop/gimp/mspaint or what have you. If you want to store that image on a public site to contact other people in your league of evil doers then the it's easy enough as long as you're following the same protocol, they know where to look, how to look and have the keys to make it not look like garbage. The problem lies in the destruction of the data. In the case of storing an image on a public site with a hidden message, even if that message isn't just LSB but maybe you're doing fun stuff in the frequency domain the site would need to degrade the image in a way that destroys the message. imgur already alters images but there are some techniques that work even when resolution is reduced or the format changes.

At some point in the future you can bet your ass that there's going to be a country that implements mandatory filters on uploaded images that destroy any numerical data that could be encoded into them if it's uploaded by an anonymous user. It's too dangerous otherwise (lol).

There are some papers on it that I haven't read yet which may provide a generic attack that preserves image quality but what about audio? Video? Typos in web novels, ebooks? The list goes on. You can hide your info anywhere. I'm waiting for a future where there's an addon for pgp that takes images as an input and outputs something that looks normal instead of just proudly stating you can't see what I'm saying haha. The best defense is one that isn't seen right?

It seems like it is currently Ruby's turn to take a beating just like Java before it. I guess people relentless hate on Java even to this day, so maybe it will never get much better. But Ruby certainly holds a special place in my tool box. Here's to another 25 years.
>Almost all my colleagues struggled with setting up python 2 und 3 correctly at some point, whereas this just worked for me on Linux.

Just as a nitpick: communities can (almost) never "get its act together", as they are comprised of people with different preferences who do not want to abandon their preferences for some abstract common good.

On a more substantive note (globally consistent actions from keystrokes). It would be great, but not going to happen because there are established modes where the same keystrokes lead to well known results. And those actions are different depending on the application. Maybe it would be good if this was not the case, but that ship has sailed a long time ago. MacOS is in sync because its BDFL (Apple) forces it to.

Example: Ctrl-Z. In a terminal, it suspends a process. In most GUI editors it performs undo. Shall we force a global standard? I would pay to watch a user get its editor suspended when he presses Ctrl-Z to undo a typo. Did the program crash? Let me start it again ... what does it mean it is already running?? Where are my edits??? I'll just reboot the machine!

So agreed, global synchronizations that would force this to happen are unlikely. Fortunately. My 2c.
Gotcha, thanks for the reply.
Linux is certainly more hassle than Windows/OS X.

Since you mentioned XPS: I've been running Arch Linux on a new Dell XPS13 without any issues. Webcam, microphone, touchpad, etc: all works fine.
I think the author's main point about concentration is even more important in blitz. My own peak on lichess in blitz is 2117 (super humblebrag) but if you look at my rating history it has massive volatility due to playing on mobile phone on bus rides, in bed before going to sleep etc.

Concentration != using n-seconds per move... More like not wasting n% of seconds per game with non-game stuff.
Re-distrubuting and hosting on the cloud are 2 completely different things, here Spatial isn't streaming the visuals of their instance or anything alike but making sure there is only one state of the game, a pretty useful tool for multiplayer games (avoid cheating, etc)
If anything, font rendering in Linux is much better than in OSX. It does way more advanced auto-hinting and LCD-subpixel rendering, supports the newest font standards for things like advanced layouts, colored fonts and emojis, etc. etc. There's also very little display fragmentation other than the choice between Xorg and Wayland, which are largely complementary so far. But you can already be on Wayland-only in many cases.
This is great news- having fewer children is one of the best ways we can decrease our impact on the environment. Additionally, with the expected declines in quality of life over this century due to climate change it only seems right to have fewer children as they will likely suffer due to the widespread famine and water crises that are expected, especially as the American bread basket turns into a desert.

Handling shortcuts would be compositor specific. Unlike X, the display server part with Wayland is implemented by the compositors. Wayland itself is just the protocol.

KWin for example allows setting various global shortcuts: https://docs.kde.org/trunk5/en/kde-workspace/kcontrol/keys/i...

There are still a few rough spots surrounding Docks, external monitors, and HiDPI (if you went 4k).

Additionally, I had to jump through a few more hoops in order to get Thermal Throttling under control, increase the battery life to a usable level, etc..

Yes, on Linux you can make your desktop look like something from the 90s, if you so choose. The big DEs (Gnome Shell, KDE Plasma) don't generally look like this (though Plasma is configurable enough, you probably could configure it so to do), but rather explore different paradigms.

Amusingly, the macOS UI, on the other hand, is almost literally from the 90s (it dates from 2000, I think). And the Windows 10 UI isn't meaningfully different from the Win95 interface.

So it's really mainly on Linux that you actually have the option of modern UIs.

Unfortunately, the openness allows for so much flexibility, that many people end up breaking it up. Invariably, they will blame the system and not their changes. If they used the defaults, like they do in other systems, it would not happen.

You can also use double brackets for wiki functionality to automatically create a link to another page of the same name. For example, [[this]] would create a link to a page called ’this’.

Goroutine are very different from thread in practice.

you don’t have to pay the memory usage and context switch cost you would have if using large amounts of threads.

It’s also faster to do IO processing from a single thread in batch instead of having one OS thread per request.
Surnames are heritable through the male line only. Genes are heritable through both parents. Wealth is some societies is heritable mostly through the male line, and in other societies through both lines.

Assuming that in the ~584 odd years from the study to the present day that 20 generations passed (average of 30 years per generation), the specific great-great-grandparent who passed on that name has roughly a 0.5^30 on that person (which is an infinitesimally small number).

However, rich people usually marry rich people. It's likely these results aren't just direct inheritance, or direct genetics, but it shows stratification within Italian society.
Notably even the frontend path omits anything on how websites should function―even though it's in a different field if you're for strict ultra-specialization, it's still recommended to learn how to not accidentally make sites that are hostile to users. Arguably, it should be learned before the programming part, so it's ingrained from the start.

E.g. for me the defining text is Jakob Nielsen's “Designing Web Usability: The Practice of Simplicity,” which probably didn't lose any value in the time since publication, because humans don't change so fast.

P.S. I'm also of firm belief that the proximity principle is by far the most important tool of graphic design and that everyone should learn to see and use it. To, ahem, not make diagrams where everything is lumped together.

(I'm a backend coder, by the way.)

Amazon EU companies tend to follow blindly what is coming from the HQ. I personally experienced this. After warned the management about getting the ministry of employment involved they immediately backed down and let us implement something according to the EU law. It is the matter of knowing your position and the law.
Thanks a lot for your advice and kindness. We've been hesitant to overuse industry credentials (I work at Google) because I personally look for documentation quality over goodness-by-association, but I agree that we haven't done enough to answer the question of "who is this, and why should I trust them?". You are right that having too little identity does not help the service look better, so we'll take another look at this.

You don’t have to compare oneself to sexual assault victim narrative to attach to some sort of a narrative. People can be attached to all kinds ot ideas and narratives. I have learned from my own life journey that suffering can’t really by quantified, and one person’s experience of suffering can be as intense to them as someone else’s.

As I said, being a victim of an impersonal force can happen in the business world too.

Whether the acting force is personal or impersonal, the victim usually experiences (1) the force personally and (2) feels helplessness at the situation. The latter is kinda strange to me in the context of a business setting given the common narratives around self-reliance and exploiting opportunities in the business and startup subculture.

Thing is, I don’t see much at stake besides time, stress, and inconvenience. Maybe this is an appeal to public opinion get some leverage over Stripe? If not, and they really want to be in the victimhood narrative as an entrepreneur, sure, go ahead. I don’t see how such an orientation will help someone succeed as an entrepreneur.
And even then it sometimes works. Many (but not all) large Spanish land grants were respected in the US southwest/California after the Mexican/American war.
Did Unity just prohibit all cloud-hosted multiplayer games?
Personally, I gave up on Gnome and run LXDE a bit like i3 - autopositionning the windows with Fx keys mapped to a given set of coordinates, so F10 will make a window use a square on the left covering 80% of the screen, F11 will move the window to the remaining 20% on the right, thus hiding conky - etc. The only advantage I find in LXDE is that it has a titlebar I can 'reveal' if I wish to mess around and fiddle with the window position (like when tracking the arping replies in a remote lan and using a bit of scripting to see the evolution of the metric as I fiddle with things)

I like my desktop lean and mean. I do not want distractions. When I am dealing with a remote system crashing under load, the last thing I want is my desktop or my shortcuts to behave in weird ways. Things must always work, in a consistent way. Funny thing is I can only get that in Linux... and in Windows 10.

Customization is a feature, just not everyone needs that feature.

So I disagree with your assessment, as some users will find Gnome or KDE too distracting.
Fine there’s always movement between states and each person has their reasons for moving them it good or bad. That said I have tried the switch repeatedly after reading such posts/recommendations only to realise I’ve spent more time trying to get something really basic to work for no tangible benefit. For those who found the transition worthwhile then I tip my hat off to you
Not really. There's roughly a 50% premium vs raw EC2 instances for any RDS related service. The crux is keeping the operating cost below that delta.
Got no idea why but it seems actually two different certificates are used? Base64 digest of the other one is

A8J84S7EER8rZJ/IQ6MsYW7heNY939jWL7IpOLrj+VM=

And I wonder whether we should actually add the digests into stubby configs? One of the certificates expires in February and other one expires in March. Does it mean that we have to update the configs then?
Yes they are running unity runtime on their servers, there is nothing in the TOS against that, what is illegal is to share any of the data from that runtime online with other Unity instances. Which has nothing to do with "re-distributing" Unity has a SAAS.
its just a number. its not necissary tied to you and no attached name unless you advertise. there are ways of tracking it and asserting identity but their are counter measures as well. you could of course buy prepaid credit cards to a simmilar effect and that transaction could of course be tracked but as long as it was cash(though there may be video footage of the teller and time) though this goes more into posible crime than just privacy minded if they investigate that far.
> I think any comments about the looks of a Linux desktop must be sure to talk about what Desktop Environment are you saying that about.

All Mac apps use the Command (⌘) key for copy/paste.

I've never encountered an app that uses Ctrl. A developer would really have to go out of their way to accomplish this in their app, since the copy/paste menus are provided by Cocoa; the keyboard shortcuts are essentially built into the OS.
Interesting, I don't know a single program on OS X which supports Ctrl+C/V for copy&paste but does not support Command+C/V (indeed, I know only a tiny set of programs that support Ctrl-C/V at all, mostly cross platform software that is badly adapted to OS X).

Out of curiosity, could you name an example or two?
I'm not sure that Apple cares though. At this point they don't really seem that interested in 'computers' (as per their own ads), and the iOS ecosystem is where they make their money.
That doesn't "Just work" on Windows 7 or 10, though, so not sure it's a failure on the part of Linux as much as a success on the part of macOS.

> Economist can neither predict, save or create the financial market.

I would argue the problem is much more than the government selects economists based on what exactly they predict. For example:

https://www.cnbc.com/2017/11/02/trump-picks-jerome-powell-to...

https://www.theguardian.com/business/2013/oct/09/obama-janet...

In both cases the selection procedure gave up what these people did to get selected. Janet Yellen had strong academic credentials and a theory on how to prevent economic crashes, which clearly Obama was partial to. Of course we just pretend she wasn't Vice Chair in 2011, because that would be a definite fly in the soup. Powell seems to have been selected on a promise to take the market into account (ie. to try to preserve the inflated prices of stocks), which Trump seems to like, or at least he used to.

The point is, both people were selected based on their opinions. To say that their actions represent economists is stupid. They represent Obama's and Trump's philosophies, not economists.
It is sad to see what The Guardian has become.

Of course you need to understand how the framework works. But that's a fixed cost vs. having to understand a program from scratch everytime when your framework is not clear or powerful enough.

Would you also say using "goto" is easier because it's a simple jump, vs. having to understand how while/for loops work?
What DAC are you using? And what audio applications? On MacOS and Windows, if your music player is not using CoreAudio or WASAPI “exclusive mode”, your audio is going to get res ampler and dithered by the OS mixer. This may be the difference that you’re hearing.
