When discussing foreign policy officials and visa rules, Orwell is probably going to come up fairly regularly as a common point of reference. Is from the book 1984.
I have opposite experience, as soon as I go to NL, I constantly have to watch out for drivers cutting in, watch the speed limit carefully, road is more congested. Also it's sometimes too "boring" to drive, you have to watch not to sleep. Driving from Poland to Netherlands I can say Polish autobahn is the best. Least roadworks, least slowdowns to 80, least people cutting you when you try to pass, highest average speed (constant 140km/h). Only disadvantage - driving once through whole Poland costs as much as yearly vignette in Switzerland.
I'm Danish, but my girlfriend is German and we rent a car every time we visit her family down there, in Baden-Württemberg. The area around Stuttgart is absolutely awash with big Mercedes and Porsches, for obvious reasons.

(As an aside, if you're ever in the area, go visit Auto & Technik Museum Sinsheim, and prepare to spend a whole day there gawking at awesome old machinery and airplanes)

At first, I found driving there a little bit intimidating. I'm used to Danish roads, where we drive 80km/h rather than 100km/h on most roads, and the speed limits are rather strictly enforced at 110/130km/h on motorways. I'm also used to Danish drivers, who generally accelerate and brake more gently, and generally drive slower cars (due to higher prices/taxes).

In comparison, Germans are more forceful drivers. I wouldn't say "aggressive", because they're much better at stopping for pedestrians at crossings, and yielding the right of way. But they accelerate and brake harder, drive faster in corners and have much more faith in the quality of their roads, and the skills of other drivers.

Once I got used to that difference in behavior, I found it much easier to grok German traffic and fit in.

That said, a BMW X5M passing you at 250+km/h while you're chilling at 160km/h in a rental Opel Corsa is always a little unnerving.
I seek to help Qiu Zhanxuan achieve freedom again. I think it is somewhat unlikely, but I have decided that the best thing I can do is petition US Universities to put Chinese student applications to US universities on hold until Qiu Zhanxuan is released, or his remains are released.

Sure, but I was referring to the amount of money being spent to develop Linux, Apple obviously has infinitely more cash and developers.

And Linux has to compete with that.

It's really more astonishingly impressive that Linux gets what it does, when you compare their resources to that of the absurdly wealthy and powerful Microsoft, Google, and Apple.
It's not the editor's job to replicate the results. Imagine the same requirements in medical research, this would be crazy. Editors accept a paper based on the quality of the paper and the claim.

Then the paper needs to be replicated a few times by independent research teams to be considered valid. This is the step we are probably missing in AI. Any published paper (and even unpublished, on arxiv) are considered valid and by the community but sometimes cannot be replicated.
I remember when Chrome launched. And the cheers that followed. Finally, someone was doing something about the complete mess that browsers were in.

So "ramming it down the throat of the internet"... not so much. It was eagerly adopted by everyone because the only alternatives at the time were IE (with it's curious off-standard interpretation of... well...everything) and Firefox (which at the time was unusably slow and difficult).

It's a huge shame that we've got to this point with it, because it has been the driving force behind the massive improvement in browsers over the last dozen years. It's like watching an old friend being forced to humiliate themselves to keep a job :(

> I don't think it's helpful to treat these as isolated one-offs caused by a bogus configuration.

That’s why I said the config change is “just the trigger”. Root cause analysis will generally result in multiple causes for any problem.

> Perhaps what is required is a completely different attitude to config changes, which treats them as testable, applies them incrementally and allows simple rollback.

Google already has that, you can see it in the postmortems for other outages. It’s called canary.

> Code is stored in version control and extensively tested before deployment. Are config changes treated the same way? It certainly doesn't seem like it. Config changes should not be hard to test, hard to diagnose, and hard to rollback.

Unfortunately, in the real world config changes are hard to test. Not always, but often. Working on large deployments has taught me that even with config changes checked in to source control, with automatic canary and gradual rollouts, you will still have outages.

Code doesn’t have 100% test coverage either. Chasing after 100% coverage is a pipe dream.

Show HN: Window Recorder for macOS
Surely an enterprising person will do this.

There’s a law in France regardiung the release of exit polls on the day of an election - basically, you are restricted from releasing these polls before the polls close so as not to impact people who vote later in the day. The law applies to French media in France, but it doesn’t apply to non-French media entities. Hence, if you are looking for exit polling date on the day of the election, you hit up a French-language source in Switzerland or Belgium that carries the polling instead of the local French news site.

I suspect this legal analysis could be a more lucrative and sustainable use case for a non-French-but-still-French-language startup to make their way.

>despite supporting universal background checks, republicans are ideologically opposed to the type of politician that supports background checks.

You don’t sound like you know much on this topic.

When the poll question is asked as: “Do you support background checks when purchasing a firearm to keep criminals from getting guns” the answer is high.

When the question is more appropriately asked as: “Do you support the government requiring permission via an unrelated third party who has no obligation to comply before you are allowed exercise your civil rights?”

A lot less support when the real question is asked.

I don’t think that examples helps your argument in this case.
Just to be clear, this doesn't necessarily mean that the students got the degree through fraud or low standards.

Speaking and listening can be harder than reading and writing, so the students might be doing good work even if their spoken language isn't very good. Also in technical subjects you might not need to know the language well to pass the tests and do the homeworks.

As an example, I have an Msc from a French language university, but I can't really understand the language.
Ya, I feel like they didn't really even acknowledge that some regions were completely down for hours. I have a GKE cluster in us-west-2 (Los Angeles) and it was 100% completely inaccessible from the public web, the google cloud console and the google cloud cli.

There was no 'increased latency' and 'partial' outages. It was completely failed for nearly 4 hours. Google console showed a friendly message that I have not yet setup my first GKE cluster and to click here to try it out. They even offered me a $300 credit for first time use.
From the article it sounds like they banned any kind of statistical analysis. I can understand that you might want to put a temporary ban on AI's that directly advise judges, however this seems excessive.

This is preposterous. Judges are acting predictably in making critical decisions about people's lives. Instead of trying to fix the bias/predictability problem, France moves to censor data revealing said predictability.

There is another important factor. Wood expands and contracts according to the moisture content of its environment and screws expand and contract according to temperature. The combination of these means that screws work themselves loose over time, often wearing the threads out of the wood.

In the UK, stair handrails (for instance) used to be mortice and tennoned with a drawbored peg. This is where an offset holde is drilled through the tennon and a peg driven in to pull it tight. A fashion for cheap construction has seen this replaced by screws in many cases. The problem is that uk houses tend to have wet plaster (or at least a skim on drywall) and high moisture levels at the time of installation. This means that the wood will shrink once installed... and your handrails come loose, the screws are hidden by this time!

In a very damp situation, say a wooden gate, this gets a cyclical drying and wetting, yet properly made oak gates can last many years due to their pegged tennon joints.
Edit: clarity
Sounds like misspelling "139" as "-1E9" could be profitable...

I never recharge around people, other than perhaps a romantic partner and even then only when she respects my need for quiet time and solitude on a regular basis. E.g. I can be ok if people are physically present around me, but I need quiet and not having to interact at times. Some people can do that, many people just can't. People talk, and usually require attention even when they don't explicitly verbalize it. I can be happy to be silent for hours on end, which tends to drive people crazy and think I'm upset or angry when I'm just enjoying the quiet.

I think you're making assumptions based on yourself and extrapolating. I don't really spend time around "very close friends". My closest friends are people I haven't seen for years, and I'm fine with that. It's not that I wouldn't enjoy spending time with them, because I do, and there are people I spend time thinking about regularly, but I just don't feel a need to go out of my way to see them - when it happens, it happens. And I'll need time to recharge afterwards, but that's ok.

> If you have balance in your life good but be careful of loneliness, we are social beings, even introverts.

While this is pretty much a truism, I think it exaggerates through omission. Yes, we should be wary of being lonely, and yes, we're all social beings, but that does not mean we have need for the same volume of social contact. I haven't felt lonely for decades, even when alone for extended periods of time. I don't see why I would - I don't know what it is like for someone to feel that kind of need for social contact. Again, it doesn't mean I don't like social contact now and again, but it takes very little of it to keep me happy and content.

I really like the way the built-in screenshot tool works on macOS, and it's ability to "snap" to windows.

For screen recordings, Quicktime works great, but only provides a fullscreen or area based capturing option.

With Window Recorder, I've tried to mimic the behaviour of the screenshot tool, but for screen recordings.

It's currently free, but my intention is to take the freemium route, with an upcoming version including a premium upgrade, with a few more knobs and dials to tweak the recording, as well as recording directly to .gif.

My point was that ECC ram is twice as expensive. Cache is super expensive (your consumer chip will have significantly less), so are PCI lanes (again, consumer chips have significantly fewer of these), and also your Ryzen chip doesn't have AVX-512 support which is important for e.g. video work.
