I think our evolution even made us dependent on extended families. Like in having groups of at least 20 individuals in order to raise children successfully.

The smallish nuclear family is a very modern invention. Going to high school (and the natural consequence of parents not educating their own children) is even more recent.

> In every formal context, the "family name" is how you should address someone. (You do not address the queen of England as "Mrs. Windsor", and Saddam Hussein preferred to be known as "Saddam", which is not a family name.)

Don't these "falsehoods" just become ridiculous at some point? Like, am I really supposed to carve out special cases in my shitty app's business logic for the Queen and Saddam Hussein?
It was 1989, Yeltsin was not a president of Russia. At the time he was a regional Communist Party leader just elected to the (kind of a) parliament of Russian Soviet Federative Socialistic Republic - RSFSR, then still a member of USSR. He would be elected a President of RSFSR in 1990, and in 1991, after dissolution of USSR, Russia became an independent country. Unless one was a diplomat or KGB or shown a special interest in learning the way of life in "the West", there was not too much exposure even for people at his level.
It seems to be something that is technically possible but almost no one uses it because reboots aren't that bad especially in the age of docker where you just destroy the whole OS when you update.

That's dangerous thinking. Any un-patched service can turn into a pivot point. If the same folks who managed more critical pieces of infrastructure log in there, it can almost certainly be used to pivot onto their other systems.
Given that these animations aren't interactive and run continuously as well as have a fixed resolution (I thought they were SVG at first, but zooming in disproves that), I feel like plain old GIFs would be far better for accessibility and maybe even bandwidth --- GIF's delta-frame encoding is surprisingly effective, especially for art like this.

Personally, I wish that was done more often in English. It doesn't make a damn bit of sense to wantonly import unmodified foreign orthography from on language into another. English is bad enough as it is. Word order and spelling (even for names) should be adapted to the rules of the language being spoken.
"Even much of Apple’s development software is open-source."

mathematica is already in existential trouble. yes some theoretical physicists supposedly use it (i used it undergrad to do all of the annoying integrals in e&m) but that's such a small market it's basically irrelevant. i can almost guarantee there is no production code running that uses mathematica in some way.
FYI, AppImages do not run anywhere. There are a lot of issues with them in NixOS, since NixOS is all about having explicitly-linked dependencies, and AppImages still often have implicit dependencies that aren't in the image itself, since they are assumed to exist on the host system.

See https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/51060 for an example.

Remember Occam's razor, the simplest explanation (that a "second tier company" was lazy with their release video and some video editor found the highest res renders he could find without realizing they weren't actually Lenovo's renders) is the likeliest explanation.
In 1914 the U.K. had been the second richest economy in the world for over a hundred years. Nonetheless approaching a third of the male population eligible for conscription were in poor enough health that they were deemed unusable in war. The average American was a foot taller than the average Briton. The members of the House of Lords were noticeably taller than the members of the House of Commons, some of whom, presumably, had had long periods of poor nutrition in their lives.

The norm was not perpetual famine but neither was the average peasant well fed except in transitory times of abundance. Normally the nobility and urban patriciate and cash rich populations like successful merchants would survive famines just fine though food would get more expensive. For the mass of the population lean years where the old, sick or young would die for lack of food would be every five years if they were lucky and about every thirty years a tenth to a third of the population would die in a famine.

The unusual thing about the Irish Potato Famine of the 1840s wasn’t that 1/4 of the population died; it was that that was the last time it happened. Famines were so unremarkable before the 1800s, even in Western Europe, that we often need to do archival detective work to figure out they happened. Do we see more people buried in paupers’ graves at this time? Do tree ring data suggest unusually harsh weather? Did grain prices rise? The literate classes weren’t indifferent to the suffering of those on the Malthusian margin of survival but large portions of the population dying of starvation every so often was normal.

I fixed my sleep by doing the following things:

#1: No before bed bad emotions or anxiety. Anything that'll get me anxious, angry or cause a fight mentally is stuff I try to avoid well before bed. (If you are married do not engage in conversation that can lead to an argument.)

#2: Make sure the room is cool and get a blanket. If the room is hot or the blanket too thick it'll make sleep uncomfortable at best.

#3: If you want to watch something before bed then it had better be boring. Boring stuff makes you want to stop watching something so you'll be less interested in that and more interested in sleeping. To make it easier, use an auto power-off mode for the device so you'll sleep without thinking about turning something off.

Those three helped me a lot.
I've done this in the past, but I find it's infinitely more painful to me when I genuinely care about getting the task done and I still can't make myself get a start on it.

Other "problems" for Japan foreign residents:
* I'm of Japanese ethnicity but not Japanese, so must use katakana. Confuses everyone.
* My wife, also not Japanese, kept her maiden name; breaking all kinds assumptions on forms.
* Recently my wife has taken on Japanese citizenship and now uses the kanji form of my katakana last name. More confusion from various institutions.
* My kids did not take on the Japanese citizenship and pretty much stands on school rosters.
* And what about the katakana romanization of the names!? My first name has two different variations...

I could go on... but for name ordering problems, my bank credit card allows choices on how the name is to be used on the card. I naively picked FirstName MiddleInitial LastName for the credit card. This does not match any form of Japanese identification. So when I'm trying to buy say a SIM card, inevitably an exception is thrown and some crazy Japanese style escalation ensues.
As a long time Arch user, what's the attraction to these spinoffs?

What social roles would that hypothetical secular church need to replace?

I see a reinforcement of a group identity that can follow to new churches, often simply requiring attendance... opportunities to practice values through volunteering... the holy leaders' quasi-authoritative councilor/networking facilitator/self-improvement/social policing role... and more...

You’re going to need to qualify what you mean by “high performance”.
Oh man good point about uptime.

What a serious flip in what we think about there.
Mine would be titled "The Arse of Computer Programming".
I'd say the truly worst case would be zero, and delisting. I don't think it'll come to that, though. Tesla is basically the best thing to happen to the car industry in the last hundred years or so, it'd be a real shame if it crapped out.
But C++ in fact isn't true OOP (and neither is Java), and Scheme isn't a functional language.
I think you're thinking too big here. This is a single scaleway machine, by itself. It has only one user(me), and one listening process(two if counting ssh). Even if you gained root access to it, there's literally nothing you could do I would care too much about, including taking it offline.

That wasn't meant to be a point of pride or accomplishment, more a testament to the reliability of Scaleway. I've been super happy with them.
Video introduction to AppImage (linked on the AppImage website):

Also, a side point -- is it wrong to want people to spend more energy on building fat binaries? To me they are the ultimate in portability (by definition), and investing in projects like musl libc and distributions like alpine, languages like go and rust that build portable static binaries is so much more accessible to me as a developer.

All the approaches to portable apps seem to just be hacking around the problem but I wonder if we should instead be pouring energy into making fully static binaries easier to build, then trying to optimize them to get them smaller.
I fully understand password hashing and I still had trouble following your analogy. I think the key is using as little jargon as possible and explaining the actual concepts plainly.

>"Hashing" a password is a method of scrambling it that will produce the same scramble every time you do so. However two different passwords will never produce the same scramble.

Could be better, but emphasizes the deterministic nature of hashing but also avoids tangential details and gotchas like collisions which aren't relevant here.
In addition to the solutions in my sibling comment, there is also the commercial (but cheap) KernelCare (https://www.kernelcare.com/), which supports basically every major server OS (https://patches.kernelcare.com/).

I run it on all dedicated servers, as well as managed servers where we can easily pass the cost on.

They're currently releasing livepatches across all the kernel builds to address the Intel MDS stuff (at least the kernel-based mitigations) and it's all very pleasant and hands-off.
You can't with any sincerity believe that.

A troll hanging day and night outside a factory parking lot posting absolute crap on twitter is not in any way useful to anyone.

The guy was a nut case with some Moby dick like obsession. I can't find a single time where he was even remotely objective.
Unless you have untrusted users with SSH you can get away with a lot. I've reviewed many major Linux patches for the past several years and found we weren't actually impacted by most of them.

For example, I don't need Zombieload/MDS patches as I don't have anyone running untrusted code on the servers, I didn't need the rds_tcp vulnerability patch from last week because I don't have RDS modules loaded on any of my servers. I didn't need client side OpenSSH patches on these servers either, nor OpenSSL patches for UDP SSL. Typically a quick check with ansible is all it takes to confirm if these things are or aren't real risks for you.

EDIT:
Just looking at some CVE lists... It looks like assuming that the entire attack surface is the kernel and pre-auth openssh you may be in the clear running stock Ubuntu Server Minimal 14.04, a 5 year old OS today.

Kernel vulnerabilities resulting in code execution in the TCP stack or related code resulting in code execution are few and far between. OpenSSH vulnerabilities... well, the last pre-auth OpenSSH vulnerability, one of the two in it's entire lifetime had the severe consequence of... being able to check usernames too fast.

Please let me know if I've missed a big one, but I don't see anything that could even be used to do more than DoS a system like this running an old kernel and openssh server.
It makes me really sad that this is necessary. Unix has a concept of shared libraries. And somehow it managed to get ruined so irrevocably that there's no going back. This—this was a solved problem! It really was. It was solved, and then we unsolved it when we decided that 'move fast and break things' was more important than ABI stability. And now shared libraries are completely useless. I struggle to name a single useful c library that's useful as a system-wide shared library nowadays. Libc/m doesn't really count because it's part of the language, and libz is small enough that everyone who needs it statically links it. Everything else is neither ubiquitous nor stable enough to be used. HOW DID THIS HAPPEN?

The NCS image at the link you provide above literally shows the exact three-cornered orange-white-black triangle at position -Y10R that is shown in this image, which appears to use the exact hue sequence shown in your wiki link’s animation. I’m confused why you object to it being supported. Is your objection to their use of Hue spectrum positions 0,90,180,270 (R,G,C,M) - as already implemented in CSS today - as the four saturated qualia rather than NCS’s specified four qualia positions of 0,90,180,270 (R,Y,G,B)?

The captain, Alexei Solyanik, that seems to be most responsible for the lions share of total eradication, particularly of the humpback whale populations in the southern pacific, comes across as something of a total sociopath. A social climber of the worst sort, and yet his abrupt downfall and ruin also seems oddly misplaced. Like firing a matador for slaughtering cattle.

The origin of the whaling industry starts during the inter-war period, before atomic weapons, before any sort of cold war power struggle. The ratchet of the marching quota treadmill starts in earnest, before concepts of poaching and overfishing meet with regulation and conservation efforts.

So it is true that economic planning created this monster, and that its inertia unleashes a destructive force that exhausts natural supply to the point of extinction. The downfall of A. Solyanik, by way of a summertime 1965 Pravda hit piece smearing his public image must have been the product of some political anomaly, since the trend in whale extermination operates unbroken by his summary excommunication in the court of public opinion, from 1965 until strict international regulation is more directly enforced in 1972.

You get the impression that captain Solyanik carries roughly the intellectual prowess of a used car salesman. So he's good enough to stay ahead of the curve within his microcosm of ripping some whales a new asshole, but apart from that, he's a dude with a cushy job, business as usual, even if patently unscrupulous. No different from operating a cattle feedlot, but without the animal husbandry.

To read that the Soviets reinvented themselves as whalers, just as U-boat warfare ramped up is an intriguing coincidence. It contrasts against the detail highlighted by Alfred Berzin, that other countries, namely Japan, really did whale for food and efficiently used the whole carcass, while the Soviets seems to whale for the hunt and haphazardly butchered for the shelf-stable commodities as proof of meeting the KPI metrics.

So the quotas were real, and only halted their ascent due to international pressure, and literally at the brink of extinction which was already forcing its own reality upon the numbers charted each year.

If there was a submarine strategy attached to the behavior, you'd think the number of whales slaughtered would be attached to naval excursions somehow.

Or that maybe you could link something like the sinking of K-129 to the crucifixion of Solyanik, but it seems he was busily depleting an Australian gulf of its shrimp stock with sea vacuums during the 1968 the summer following the spring sinking of K-129, that March...

One source of the procrastination is that the assignment is boring and the only way you can feel alive is to slam it out under pressure.

There are other coping mechanisms you can use, although some of them are arguably worse than procrastination (eg overengineering).
How do they define market saturation? They think all the people that will buy a Tesla already bought it? How would they get that estimate? Also none of the reason mentioned in the article warrants a 10 dollar worst case.
