Whenever I hear about "sustainable tourism" developments like Ousland's, I can't help but think about the huge amount of emissions caused by people getting there in the first place. I bet the vast majority of visitors fly into Tromsø. It feels a bit like painting the walls while the house is falling down around you.
While this is a Atom x5-Z8300, I run a similar board (Atom x5-Z8350) and since it supports hardware encoding of H.264 video, it's a dream as a super-cheap home media server.
With the current state of the environment I think that keeping areas that do not see many people that way is more important than indulging people's desire for holidays.
>according to three former senior U.S. officials with knowledge of the matter.

It would matter if there were any substance to the claims, it might make sense. But instead, the article goes a step further as you quote here:

>> The former senior intelligence official criticized how the administration handled the matter, remarking on the striking difference from past administrations, which likely would have at a very minimum issued a démarche, or formal diplomatic reprimand, to the foreign government condemning its actions.

This take, of course, hinges on the premise being correct, which there is no substance to prove it is. This is classic oppo laundering.
Not the first time I have completely misunderstood the question, then.
You really don't want Matrix. One year of Matrix to IRC bridge cost me about 30GB in Postgresql database to hold the state/logs of everything.

My guess is because of a red disinfectant called merbromin which contains mercury, as LoSboccacc pointed out elsewhere in these comments.

When I was a kid, merbromin - under the trade name Mercurochrome - was a popular treatment for minor cuts.

It contains mercury, and "stains the skin a distinctive carmine red" (quoting Wikipedia), which can last for many days.

Interesting. I'm glad to be wrong because then I learn something!

I'm not sure if you have answers, but I have questions:

1. How do they determine what size to start sharing/refcounting at? Now that I'm actually considering it, it's obvious that they'd copy small stuff--an obvious lower limit would be sizeof(<reference_counter_type>) + sizeof(<pointer_type>) because smaller than that, it actually is faster/less memory to copy. But the numbers you're mentioning are higher than that--is there some metadata being stored beyond the reference count and pointer?

2. Is copied data stored in thread storage and garbage collected by that thread's garbage collector? That would be my guess.

Obviously the source of truth for all these questions is the code[1], but it's been a while since I dug in there. Maybe it's time to go again.

Really? The author touts how amazing a $900 fare is (MXP-JFK) but a quick search on Expedia returns the same flight, two ways, non stop, Iberia/American for $322. And I entered a random date. Depressingly bad journalism.

Harris can manufacture this under the guise it’s never intended for use within the U.S. They can claim it is for counter-insurgency surveillance in certain central Asian countries.

Alternatively, they could seek FCC OET authorization for the product as test equipment, but I doubt it, and my quick searches have yielded nothing.

I suspect this is why Harris, FBI and other LEAs conceal their use [1].

This is the point that really needs to be driven home.

"But what about all the jobs that will close when we make better labor standards" should always be met with "these companies shouldn't exist in that form".

Taken to an extreme: Were abolitionists more concerned with freeing slaves from the labor abuses they were living under, or the long term prospects of the plantations and their business models?

Sometimes the business isn't worth the social costs.

No. My point is that it's a difficult problem, one that isn't solved by building a wall, be it literally or bureaucratically.

My criticism is that this problem is hard. Should we do nothing instead? No. Just think harder.

Apex let's you buy most skins directly, but only using a currency you earn from playing or by getting duplicate items from boxes. You can also earn skins from boxes that you earn from leveling up, or by buying directly.

There is also a store where you can buy certain skins/items directly with money, but these items rotate (I think weekly?). Finally, there is a "battle pass" that lets you earn rewards by doing in game challenges (get so many skills in a certain part of the map, play as a certain character so many times, etc). The battle pass costs $10 US dollars. You can also spend real money to buy levels for your battle pass - so basically, dump money to earn everything, and avoid doing the challenges.

Believe it or not, Apex is one of the better F2P games when it comes to ease of getting items without paying much money. With that said, I think my complicated description above serves as a good example of how filthy these games can get. If Apex is what is considered a "good" model, just imagine the bad ones.
You wrote that in C++ and Rust it is necessary to "opt out" of properly freeing memory. That is a false statement. It is not just incidentally false, it is fundamentally false.
I worked on a project here in Norway, and I'd say that about 60%-70% of all construction worker on active projects here are Polish workers. Everyone said that buying an apartment or house is just too expensive on Polish salaries, but doable on the salaries they were making here.

The Poles here are extremely aggressive when it comes to work. They will gladly work 7 days a week, 12 hour days, if they get the chance. And many will share apartments with 3-5 other guys, to minimize living costs.

Krakow is the second or third most populous city in Poland. However, the population of the whole metropolitan area is ca 1.3 Million. [1] or 1.7 Million [2]

At the larger estimate, that's about as big as Oxford or Slough, smaller than Swindon. At the smaller, High Wycombe or Grimsby [3], none of which would appear on a list of Big British Cities.

SNI encryption is only useful if the website you're visiting shares the IP with lots of other websites. E.g, they're sitting behind cloudflare.

When you visit any of my websites, which are not on shared IPs, then not only will you continue to inform your ISP that you're doing so (regardless of the existence of ESNI), but you will additionally be informing cloudflare too.

What's your solution? That I centralise all my websites behind Cloudflare? In the name or privacy? Laughable.

It seems like the latter, though if so, it's surprising to me that it hasn't been removed. Wikipedia's editors are pretty brutal about the notoriety threshold.

> Where does the money for UBI come from?

Taxes.

> How do you propose to deal with the sudden spike in rent prices that's almost exactly the UBI amount?

Rent control.

> What do you do when welfare faring becomes socially acceptable

Celebrate the reduction in pointless stress and the associated social harms from no longer stigmatizing those with no other choice, while watching more of those who can do more actually doing so as human desires remain unlimited and UBI, compared to existing means-tested welfare, reduces the disincentive to putting effort in to earning additional income.
And of course there are exemptions for mom & pop landlords in the law.

This is why I'd rather do business with big megacorps than with small businesses; mom & pops are straight-up allowed to hurt their customers and their employees in ways megacorps aren't legally allowed to. See also: exemptions mom & pops have from mandatory sick leave laws, anti-discrimination laws, mandatory health insurance, etc.

You're downvoted, but this has absolutely been my observation as well
I still haven't been able to get a straight answer out of pro-UBI people on what you do when a mother of 4, who was previously receiving food/housing assistance for her children blows all the cash.

Do we tell them tough? Or do we slowly institute more and more programs to only end up where we are again? Keep in mind that Yang is proposing UBI that would replace all other social / welfare programs.
Not at all. What I meant was that Brexit mentality comes from the idea that you are entitled to decide who comes into "your country" and who doesn't. I lean towards a freer movement, but I understand that others lean towards the opposite, and it's fine. My main argument is that countries are just political constructions, and tourists may leave a destructive footprint wherever they go because they don't feel that land is "theirs".

It's a weird issue.

Wikipedia does context amazingly well. If I go to the Wikipedia article on sandals I not only get information on sandals, I get information about why people might want to look at an article on sandals (eg, infectious disease control) and if I care to drill a little deeper a list of all the people who cared enough about sandals to edit the article. And a talk page to cover any controversies although sandals appear to be an uncontroversial subject.

Jumping to this article however I lose 80% of that. This article is light on that data and metadata. I can't tell much about the author (I can see his last 5 articles though) and I certainly can't tell what is primary research or not. Did this journalist see the 'cell-phone surveillance devices'? Is he working off a press release? Are there challenges to this narrative viewpoint? Is this written more out of a sense of entertainment or is there an effort being made not to embellish facts?

I'm going to guess that GP meant 'Citation needed' in a slightly broader sense than just name-the-source. There is a whole culture of open metadata and transparency that has grown up in the last two decades that is simply better than journalism. Wikipedia is trustworthy because the slightest suspicion can be investigated. It is frustrating to think that we are going to rely on journalism for political information when the articles are simply devoid of political context in the sense that is freely available on Wikipedia.
It's almost like clickbait pays the bills or something
From RFC 1896:

> There are other text formatting standards which meet some of these criteria. In particular, HTML and SGML have come into widespread use on the Internet. However, there are two important reasons that this document further promotes the use of text/enriched in Internet mail over other such standards:

> 1. Most MIME-aware Internet mail applications are already able to either properly format text/enriched mail or, at the very least, are able to strip out the formatting commands and display the readable text. The same is not true for HTML or SGML.

> 2. The current RFC on HTML [RFC-1866] and Internet Drafts on SGML have many features which are not necessary for Internet mail, and are missing a few capabilities that text/enriched already has.

> For these reasons, this document is promoting the use of text/enriched until other Internet standards come into more widespread use. For those who will want to use HTML, Appendix B of this document contains a very simple C program that converts text/enriched to HTML 2.0 described in [RFC-1866].

It sounds to me like text/enriched was being proposed not so much as a replacement for HTML, but because HTML and related technologies were not yet mature enough. This wording expressly frames text/enriched as a stop-gap measure.
My experience has always been that dealing with a large PMC like IMT or Greystar is far preferable to dealing with some guy who's renting his property out.
Israel is absolutely not the boss. The US only started caring about Israel after the 1967 Arab-Israeli war, when they clearly demonstrated they could effectively suppress their Arab neighbours with military might. It is the same as supporting the most powerful warlord in any other state (Saddam Hussein, Gaddafi, the Shah of Iran, countless others), but projected over an entire region that also happens to contain Saudi Arabia.

This is also why the US has been funneling israel billions of dollars in aid to develop its military industry over the past few decades. US has gained plenty from this alliance, it has projected power in the Middle East through an ally that is terrifyingly overprepared for war, allowing it to maintain the artificial order in the Middle East and petrodollar dominance.

Rationing is not a very fair way to distribute goods or services to people. Some people may value it just enough to pay the entry fee, while others might value it a lot more, but now they have the same chances of receiving it. If you prohibit people from on-selling their tickets, then you also causes losses when people change their minds but are already locked in by the lottery.

Sure, you can write it yourself, and probably it is even easier to write in Erlang -- up to a limit due to the issues with distributed Erlang discussed above.

I worry about, and have seen this both in the first hype phase of Erlang a number of years ago, the misconception about what Erlang offers and the resulting frustration, blaming it on the tool and quitting.

Hoping in the chapters I'm working on for https://adoptingerlang.org/docs/production/ I can better explain the benefits of running on k8s (or similar), while also making clear it certainly isn't the right choice in all cases.

My Australian friend just linked this to me and I thought it would be good question to ask HN. IME HN and perhaps software development in general contains a lot of at-risk personalities in stressful work environments that don't get asked this question enough.

Maybe? There's a lot of other things to consider, such as the number of drinkers and whether it's customary to drink throughout the day or only during a small window (night).

Drinking 4+ glasses of wine all at once is quite different from drinking one glass at each meal and one before bed. Extrapolate that to weekly statistics and someone who drinks a lot of wine culturally can look worse than someone who only drinks at parties, and they could even look like an alcoholic.

I understand what you're saying, but that's not how I understand people use the term "zero cost abstraction". That term usually refers to things you can use and pay zero cost for using it. It does not usually refer to abstractions that impose a cost for use, but no additional cost if don't use them, as you suggest.

A quick Google search of the top hits for the term seems to align with my understanding.

Maybe there is a term for what you are talking about, like "pay for what you use".

We all know the acronym stands for "Resource Allocation Is Initialization" - and that in the real world the two often have no reason to be semantically coupled.

Just because you don't like what they say does NOT make them wrong. WattsUpWithThat has been one of the few sites on the net to publicize the increasing amount of science that shows that the AGW effect is either exaggerated or not happening at all. In particular, WUWT has been instrumental (pun intended) in documenting how the siting, etc. of the original temperature data collection stations is blatantly biased, as well as how raw data is destroyed and replaced by "corrected" data showing cooler temperatures in the past. As I said, whether you agree with them or not, they have every right to publish their data and analysis. The science is far from "settled" to any balanced observer.
