I find this hypothesis slithly more plausible than a pulsed radiofrequency/microwaves attack where the way this could alter white matter seems unclear, but especially given a precedent [0] both are good candidates.

This is compatible in my view to a russian interference in the midst of warming relations between Cuba and the US/Canada. The diplomats seems ro be the only members of the embassy to be affected and the russians know how to not leave their footprint when they don't want to (e.g. not Novitchok or Polonium).

Just minor issues:

You need to be on the insider programmer which forces telemetry and means you have a PITA windows style upgrade every other week (and the nagging associated with it).

Whilst you can read /mnt/c/ you can't read virtual file systems such as Google drive stream /mnt/g/ is just empty.

You need to do a bit of fuckery like pinning your ssh-agent to a known file socket and test this in your bash/zsh startup - not a biggie since you arent starting this off your WM

No X support - there are third party x viewers though but not officially endorsed. So no apps like xkeynav and xkill.

None of the intellij ecosystem have WSL support - sure you can set the terminal to be use wsl.exe but stuff like using your WSL2 distro's openssh config or using the agent running in your WSL2 etc... arent there or coming, VSCode is lightyears ahead in this department due to the way its modelled. Sadly intellij team aren't thinking in the same way of the vscode team, so instead of proxying through a remote demon they are thinking of doing something like reading //wsl$/distro/home/you/.ssh/config instead, hacking WSL support in their ssh/git bits

Not when you figure in transportation costs. Food is perishable, bulky, and labor-intensive to ship. Even with modern automated railroads and containerization (which aren't necessarily present in countries with cheaper labor), you can very easily spend more in transit than you do in growing & harvesting the food.
Someone needing liquidity? Yeah, the Treasury needs its debt funded, all the VC's need their IPO's bought, there is just a lot of supply right now. That they converged in the overnight market on one particular day might be a coincidence, but the structural issue is the very large funding needs in the economy at a time when foreign buyers are turned away due to protectionism.
I can't fathom the math and scale involved here making sense in the long term.

Eventually the marginal increase in profit is less than the marginal increase in adtech cost. I wouldn't be surprised if many industries passed that point years ago. There's probably a lot of hype and hubris disguising that fact, but someone's going to make a successful business case out of cheap, low-creepiness spray-and-pray advertising.

I really don't like the destruction of our environment, and we should protect it, but the idea that humans depend on bees (and even more so for wild bees) for survival is a complete myth.

> The most essential staple food crops on the planet, like corn, wheat, rice, soybeans and sorghum, need no insect help at all; they are wind pollinated or self pollinating. Other staple food crops, like bananas and plantains, are sterile and propagated from cuttings, requiring no pollination of any form, ever. Further, foods such as root vegetables and salad crops will produce a useful food crop without pollination, though they may not set seed; and hybrids do not even require insect pollination to produce seeds for the next generation, because hybrid production is always human pollinated. Many of the most desirable and common non-hybrid crops, like heirloom tomatoes, are self pollinated, which is what makes their cultivars stable. [1]

There's a second misconception that the number of domestic bees is declining. This also isn't true. I think people are confused because of the increase in Colony Collapse Disorder. The actual number of domestic bees has increased over the past decade.

Formal differences don't capture how awkward something can be to use. For applied programming this matters. Maybe I can do functional programming in Java, but if it's much more verbose than Haskell and the type checker occasionally falls over then it's not a good choice.
Not that it is necessarily the answer—but things like buying organic (reduce pesticide use), planting flower varietals that can be homes to diverse insect populations, consuming less animal protein, can be a good start.

Part of what I think we're seeing is that people are allowed to do whatever they want with their land without consideration for its wider impact on the environment. Just like we think that maybe destroying habitats by building dams, we should be cognizant of how and what we're doing to the environment with (especially) our farming practices.

If you need strong guarantees of isolation and if every user has their own dedicated installation. If you are a general service where isolation is enforced at the application level then just deploy straight away.

Docker is useful when you don't want to care about the underlying operating system or you might be deploying on different operating systems etc. Also if you want to quickly switch providers (like going from Ubuntu 18.04 on digital ocean to Windows Server on Azure) since it's a self contained image.

This self contained image is useful during development too. I can cleanly separate dependencies between applications and dev/test/prod. For example I develop a node app based on node 12 + pg 11 but I tinker with ghost too which requires node 10 + mysql. Having this in Docker keeps cruft and complexity off my macOS installation at the cost of space. Having multiple versions of a runtime/database etc can quickly become a nightmare to manage on local operating systems.

Operationally if you can control deployment and you don't need many servers, deploying to the base operating system makes sense. Docker/Kubernetes shine when you have scale + need to provision many servers across different platform providers.

It's even better - people clearly need office space, so even if WeWork fails he can lease to other people.

If WeWork fails to pay for their lease he can take them to court - and I would not be surprised if there are some fun creditor priorities in the bankruptcy terms of the lease agreements.

Seriously, I appreciate screwing the VC funders, but it does kind of demonstrate the kind of guy he is.
I wouldn't personally frame this in terms of "the bar for what is offensive", with its overtones of "what you can't say" and all of that. It's rather that we want users to remain kind to each other, when talking about difficult things. The intention is not to exclude or suppress communication, but to enhance it.

Still, you're welcome to frame it in whatever way works for you. The point is that you need to follow the site guidelines if you want to continue posting here. If you'd please review them and take their spirit more to heart, we'd be grateful.
Nah. I, for one, am fed up with feeling as a third-class citizen every single day.

I recently moved back to Windows after using Linux exclusively for five years. My opinion will probably prove unpopular here, but here goes: I have seen close to zero progress in making Linux a better desktop operating system in all this time, while MS has been doing solid work in making Windows a more development friendly environment.

I get this feeling that the community keeps reinventing the wheel every few years instead of making existing things more polished.

Linux is improving so fast it's really hard to keep up with it, but I'd say 99% of this progress is being made in server and embedded contexts. Billions are being poured into this area, while desktop is being pushed forward by like two guys working in their spare time.

I'll most likely wipe Linux from dual-boot after WSL 2 gets its first stable release.
This may be that, and is most likely that for most other countries, but the PRC has a history of disappearances and detainment under false charges, along with elements of the whole Stalin theater. This is why many are immediately more concerned when something like this happens in China than in say, Switzerland.
Is this your opinion on the Epstein death as well?
I don't get where people get this "efficiencies of private businesses" from. Private businesses are only efficient at making money, and making their (or everyone else's) work inefficient is a tried and true way of achieving that. All the evil cost-plus contracts that were popular in aerospace before SpaceX came? Well, there's a private business at the other end of each such contract, and that private business made the whole thing inefficient because that's how they could get more money.

No, because it presupposes that people understand what they might be implicitly allowing by not reading them. Without first knowing whether or not people understand the extent of surveillance that is possible and the possible consequences we can not know what it means that people ignore the privacy agreements.

It's possible people genuinely don't care. It's also possible they don't understand the implications, and/or that they trust these companies more than they ought to.
I wonder if the market can exhibit “profit tunneling” where you can temporarily violate the classical rules as long as you end up “making up for it”.

Hmm, US does not look or feel like the richest nation on earth. Is that just me?
But about the same in terms of GDP per capita per hour worked. It’s just that the French have a different approach to work life balance.

Also I think the average hides a wider disparity in the US.
Wait, things are not as bad as has been crammed down our throats for years? Imagine my surprise. But, yet many armchair doomsayers will still only find the negative. Yes, this isn't perfect. But neither am I. Or you. Peace
The US can't sustain casualties and maintain any popular support for the war or the reputation of the military, so they use remote control killing machines on people the media don't care about. Unless you have people on the ground (and even then!) you can't really be sure of your intel. This media strategy allows them to not care about the quality of the intel. While the power of the state is still terrifying, it is vastly weaker than during the Vietnam era.

Or as the only existing example of working nanotechnology. This realization was what made me interested in life sciences. Before, biology in my mind was mostly cataloging various peculiarities of animals and plants, which I found utterly boring. I think the switch flipped when I stopped looking at life sciences as studying an art piece, and started looking at it as reverse engineering of an incredibly complex family of machines, with full intent of using gained knowledge for practical purposes.
We are working on solving that. No promises that we will solve it completely the first time, but it should get better soon.

No, Canada is a rule-of-law country. Canada is detaining Meng Wanzhou on the suspicion of committing fraud, not because of Iranian sanctions. Violating US sanctions is not a crime in Canada and therefore nobody can be held in Canada for doing so, even at the behest of the US authorities. You can only be extradited from Canada for committing an act that would be a crime both in Canada and in the country requesting extradition.

Meng is free to move about Vancouver and is under "house arrest" at her two houses there totaling $16M CAD [1]. If the judge finds there's no reasonable likelihood of her having committed fraud, she will be free to go, end of story. There's also a short, defined clock for them to do so.

They've sentenced at least one Canadian to death in retaliation [2] and prevented others from leaving the country indefinitely.

Don't make excuses here, don't equivocate, there's no whataboutism to play. One is under legitimate investigation for committing a crime in a jurisdiction that operates autonomously of the body politic and will be free to go if not guilty -- and in the interrim free to move about almost twenty million dollars of property and one of the most livable cities in the world. The other is being executed in retaliation.

Supply and demand isn't a magic incantation that makes a particular process valid. Slave markets have supply and demand, too.

If the fundamental property rights under consideration themselves are unjust, then efficiency arguments are missing the point

Of course, I also oppose rent control, because of the inefficiency. But I very much sympathize with and understand the brutal truth behind how land ownership is acquired. It is a simple matter of force... ownership is decided by whoever wields control over the application of violence.

That fact, combined with the fact that land is not a fruit of labor, means that individual ownership claims are unjust. And even from a pure efficiency standpoint, the ability to own and speculate on land creates a huge amount of idleness and underproductivity. People are able to afford to sit on idle land indefinitely, if there's little cost to do so.

The obvious solution is to tax land by value and use the revenue for infrastructure and public goods, and any remainder should go to a Citizen's Dividend. Wise use of such funds would always flow back into the value of land itself, and thus pay for itself. Without needing to tax production or labor. This would be much fairer than our current process of creating perverse incentives by taxing labor, and then allowing landlords to reap unearned benefits from nearby public works.

Containers are fantastic at isolating one software application from another. All their dependencies - runtime, library, packages - live in separate chrooted filesystems.

User-to-user isolation is hard, and extremely hard if any of the users could be malicious. Docker is broadly neutral here - adds a few tools, might add a few vulnerabilities.

It’s not as if cameras are illegal here. You just need to have good reasons for them and have a very narrow area it surveils.

For example many of those fake cams getting forbidden were from landlords and residents sued. Now if there were good reason like many break-ins in the area, the same landlord would have been allowed to have a real camera there.
