Finally I see someone realizing the "hovering" seats in a train. Anytime I sit in a train, I wonder why they have not done so for the last 30 years or so.

While they state its for luggage and design purposes, I just think: Its so much easier to clean. Even automatically ;)
Well, in a way it's their fault too. Somebody votes for the city government that thinks the way to handle the problem is allocate budgets to yet another NGO that makes the money disappear and produces a nice report, without actually solving anything. Somebody votes for the government that makes naked people running in the middle of the street the new normal (I am not kidding even a little bit, seen that in SF several times with my own eyes), camping out and excreting right on the city's main street pavements the routine and perpetuates the whole sorry state of affairs for many years. SF is not a poor city, judging by amount of megacorps in there and shiny towers already built and being built. I can not believe making the city not look like a wasteland is a problem of no resources. It is a problem of mismanagement. And this management did not come from Mars and conquer the city. Somebody elected them and keeps electing them.

Myself, 6 months remote after 8 years in an office. I like it a lot. But I figure it depends on the person. My friend who thought he was fine as a loner hates it. He has no nearby friends or family.

I love it. I never liked water cooler talk or the people at the office but I saw value in it since being antisocial wasn't good for my career.

Now that I'm remote, there's much less politics/drama. I imagine in other companies it could be a problem that there was politics you don't get to keep abreast of, but I suppose I am lucky. I am measured more by my output than by my smile and/or on-the-spot responses.

I have more time for my family, I get all the household chores done during the work week and free up my nights and weekends. I don't think I'll go back to an office if I can help it.

I have 5 years of experience building web applications with a JavaScript stack. In that time, I've helped take two startups with web-based software products to acquisition. I have formal training in user experience and design thinking, which enables me to operate as a full product team for small companies.

I just left my job to pursue freelancing full time. Looking for brand new projects that I can use to grow my portfolio, but happy to take on features and fixes for existing products as well.
I don't really see the need to have the ability to uninstall service packs... Especially not if it's wasting 25% of the space on my tiny SSD!

The original windows installation media could be used to restore the system if something went horribly wrong anyway. Why the need to keep every previously used version of every dll?
Despite all great advances in deep learning and big data, scientific research often is more about getting the most from very little data.

$36 one way for a 5 hour train seems pretty cheap.

Maybe it is worth to give a feedback to Riseup.
A few additions, in case someone goes back to this post for reference, and because I cannot edit it anymore:

* As far as I know, you are unfortunately limited to 32bit OSs, as x86_64 got rid of the vm86 mode necessary for hosting DOS. In 64bit long mode, you would probably need to run a full x86 emulator to achieve the same (of which there are plenty), although I haven't looked into that aspect of x86_64 yet. That being said, for a toy OS 32bit is plenty, and I haven't run into anything yet where I wish it was 64bit.

* The DOS busy flag's use is actually more to know whether DOS is still busy with a DOS function invocation by something other than your OS. Your OS code can trivially know by itself that it performed a call which did not complete yet (DOS is not reentrant, so you can only perform one call at a time). However, the DOS task is actually everything within DOS, including TSRs (which are essentially programs running in DOS's background, including many device drivers), or, depending on how you structure it, maybe even a plain old foreground DOS application that has nothing to do with your OS. Both will make DOS calls as well. The busy flag was actually introduced to support TSRs, which also need to prevent stepping on DOS calls performed by other TSRs or the foreground running app.

* Besides the busy flag, there is actually a second flag, the "critical error" flag, which you should just treat as another busy flag.

* A useful technique at the beginning is to have DOS programs that perform system calls (e.g. through an INTn instruction) into your OS, which then may call back into DOS in various ways to perform functions. That way you already have the ability to launch programs from DOS's shell which can do something related to your OS. But they will overall still be 16bit programs.

* To run "native" programs in your OS, have some kind of loader that just loads your program into memory, and then just calls into your OS to start executing it as its own task. You can either let your loader return to DOS immediately, going back to the shell independently of your new OS task, or have your loader stay running until the task is finished, which is useful if you want to do console input/output through DOS's console.

* Again, this has a lot of overlap with what DOS extenders (like DOS4/GW) do. The main difference is that DOS extenders more or less only provide everything necessary to build "32bit DOS apps" (and are likely mostly single-tasked, with the exception of the additional vm86 task), while your own OS can be pretty much anything.
It's not simply people being serious.

The world has billions of people that don't know the first thing about climate change or the dangers of global warming. There are billions of people that simply do not know how much greenhouse gasses are produced as a byproduct of their daily choices in life, or what the consequences are.

Even talking to some incredibly wealthy people that want to try and solve this, you quickly realize they just do not understand.

Take YC, YC came out with the page I linked in my previous comment last year yet they continue to fly founders out for in-person 10-minute interviews when they could do it via skype. One round-trip flight from New York to Europe or to San Francisco creates a warming effect equivalent to 2 or 3 tons of carbon dioxide per person, a 10-minute skype chat would be insanely less as 1GB of data transfer is roughly 1kg of CO2. YC knows carbon is an issue but then prefers in-person interviews for 'finalist' startups as they've stated it works better than video for their needs and this goes for many other companies, individuals, agencies, governments etc.

People are like 'yeah, I drink free trade coffee, I recycle, I ride share to save the environment' then you pull up their dating profile and/or social media accounts and here they are in one photo with penguins, three photos later they are in a jungle with an elephant, 2 photos later they're on a ski slope with a caption "3rd country this year, 17 total!"...

!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The problem is, people aren't going to care until it is already too late (which is in the next 5-10 years if we don't drastically change). When multiple seasons of crop failures drive up food prices, when heat waves kill millions, when droughts and water shortages start affecting millions, when flooding seriously hurts crops...

Wait, Australia was about 20% light on grains last year. Most of the midwest has had insane rains this year which is directly impacting crop planting. Cities in India are literally running out of water. Heat waves in France are threatening to shut down a nuclear reactor as cooling water runs out.

Oh.

It's already happening. Most people don't know and don't care.

>> During talks with Thatcher, China planned to invade and seize Hong Kong if the negotiations set off unrest in the colony. Thatcher later said that Deng told her bluntly that China could easily take Hong Kong by force, stating that "I could walk in and take the whole lot this afternoon", to which she replied that "there is nothing I could do to stop you, but the eyes of the world would now know what China is like".

The eyes of the world indeed do "know what China is like". They do not care. Should HK move towards independence, tanks will roll south and the world will do nothing.

How the heck are you supposed to use the backup without the registry? You might as well just handpick which document folders you want to back up. Without the registry you can’t even load a DLL; interfaces are loaded via UUID which seeks to the registry to find the dll and its threading model.
wait until you are discussing how you should implement that api this way, similar to how it's in java, and then oracle comes at you :D

The couple times I've achieved "good enough to consistently piss people off" abilities in FPS games, it's mostly been through knowing levels very well, to include patterns of movement. Probably there's another level above that once you're in "pro" tier where improvisation becomes a big deal again, but "very good for an amateur" status is mostly memorization, in my experience.

I've seen the same thing in people I know who can pwn me at things like COD. It's 95+% knowing where to look and where to have your gun pointed no matter which part of the map you're on, so you can shoot before the pure-reflexes n00b even knows you're there.

> The only thing that NT really lacks is a Unix-style TTY subsystem.

The long, laborious ConHost / NT Console subsystem rewrite/refactor over the last few years has moved Windows a lot closer to the Unix PTY system for internal plumbing (while not breaking the NT Object side of things). The fancy new Microsoft Terminal in alpha testing now takes advantage of that.

> WSL1 fell short on both accounts, though standing alone I think it was much cooler technology.

I feel like this is an interesting case where version numbers hurt more than help, because it sounds like WSL1 and WSL2 rather than a pure 2 > 1 are going to be side-by-side for some time now (moving distros between WSL1 and WSL2 is supposedly a simple powershell operation and can be done in either direction) and hints from Microsoft that there may even still be additional investments in WSL1 depending on user use cases and interest.

I think it's good for the NT Kernel to maintain subsystem diversity, and so I do hope that WSL1 continues to see interesting uses, even if a lot of developers will prefer WSL2 more for day-to-day performance.
Interesting but not really contradictory. The fact that there are physically troops there isn’t all that significant. This Wikipedia suggests they’re not allowed to interfere and that they’re not supposed to support public order. Deploying these troops would be maybe slightly less controversial than new soldiers but still highly frowned upon. Sending Chinese troops to put down protestors would probably rally another third of the city state to the cause.

Quantum Monte Carlo Method with a Neural-Network Ansatz for Open Quantum Systems
> There's nothing wrong with object methods (that's 100% pure syntax vs. a function call)

Not really; in OOP a method call like `foo.bar(baz)` sends the `foo` object the message `bar` with argument `baz` (in Kay's current terminology); or, in more 'mainstream' terminology, it looks for a method in the `bar` slot of `foo` and calls it with `baz`.

As far as I'm aware, this is a pretty core concept in OOP: if our code isn't organised along these lines, then we're writing non-OOP code which just-so-happens to use classes/prototypes/methods (in the same way that we can e.g. write OOP code in C which just-so-happens to use procedures/switch/etc.).

(Side caveat: I appreciate that I'm making some assumptions here; one of my pet peeves with OOP is that it's rife with No True Scotsman fallacies about what is "proper" OOP, e.g. see 90% of the content on https://softwareengineering.stackexchange.com )

There is a fundamental asymmetry between the roles of `foo` (object, receiver of message, container of methods) and `baz` (argument, included in message, passed into method).

A function call like `bar(foo, baz)` doesn't have this asymmetry: the order of the arguments is just a convenience, it has no effect on how the `bar` symbol is resolved (in most languages it's via lexical scope, just like every other variable). Swapping them is also trivial, e.g.:

var flip = function(f) { return function(x, y) { return f(y, x); }; };
var rab = flip(bar);

bar(foo, baz) == rab(baz, foo)

In contrast, I can't think of an OOP alternative to this which isn't messy (e.g. adding a `rab` method to `baz` via monkey-patching).

Of course, the elephant in the room here is CLOS, but that's sufficiently different from most OOP as-practiced that it's better considered separately (e.g. I'd be more inclined to agree that CLOS methods are "100% pure syntax vs a function call")

> Non-syntactic aspects are maybe a more involved discussion. For an example, I personally think traditional OO lends itself very nicely to runtime polymorphism.

I also disagree with this, again due to the artificial asymmetries that OOP introduces (that objects "contain" methods). In particular, as far as I'm aware OOP simply cannot express return-type polymorphism. The asymmetry between arguments and return values is certainly more fundamental than the completely unneeded distinction between receiver and arguments, but it's still very useful to dispatch on the output rather than the input.

The classic example is `toString` being trivial in OOP (a method which takes some object as input and renders it to a string; the implementation dispatches on the given object); whilst `fromString` is hard (a method which takes a string and returns some object parsed from it; OOP can't dispatch the implementation by "looking inside" the object, since we don't have an object until we've finished parsing).

Yeah, there's at least a supreme court precedent, set by Texas v. White. It outlawed unilateral succession, but ruled that "revolution or consent of the states" can lead to secession.
> It's always a great place to live while the resources are being extracted.

Intuitively you would expect that. The thing that's so difficult for us to wrap our heads around about the resource curse is that intuition is completely wrong here; a sufficiently valuable natural resource can ruin a country even while it is being extracted.

The short version of the reason why is that it breaks the alignment of interest between the rulers and the people. Manufacturing industry needs a healthy and capable workforce, but as this excellent video puts it, a gold mine can run with dying slaves and still produce great treasure:
