Anything requiring more than Intel integrated graphics tends to not work well on the Mac. The vast majority of Mac models can't even take a dedicated GPU upgrade, so you're stuck with whatever Apple soldered to your motherboard and at their mercy for graphics driver upgrades.

The only time I've seen anyone try to seriously game on the Mac was a friend of mine that built a Hackintosh with a (brand new at the time) nVidia GeForce 1080ti. He couldn't even maintain 60+ FPS on Rocket League. So there's no wonder why games that require that level of GPU performance don't sell well on the Mac.

I've been struggling to work full time on a project for a few years now. I think it's the most important thing that I can do with my life now, so I refuse to let go for any reason. (I'm a US citizen literally starving in Colombia.)

I'm really loving Musk's rhyme: If the schedule is long, it's wrong; if it's tight, it's right. I've been moving way too slowly, spending too much time on small details.

Well they don’t have a strong basis to seize the vessels, right of passage is tricky and the vessels don’t turn those on while in territorial waters.

Open systems have a sufficiently large capacity to store the contaminated water so they essentially only open the loop in international waters where no one can do anything about it.

But in general it depends on who does it, for the most part if it’s a western country the country would loose in court since it will he sued by multiple parties with interest in the cargo but no actual liability.

If it’s not then it’s either going to be a political waltz or just another act of piracy.

The ship and cargo are insured some parties might make more money on losing the ship than if it had completed its transit including quite possibly its operator.
Twitter started this whole thing. Originally, IIRC, "Verified" meant exactly that. You look at a twitter account of a Celebrity or CEO or poltician, and the blue check meant it was really them.

Now it means it's really them _and_ they haven't said or done anything that the wrong people find offensive. Comedians get de-verified (or kicked off) for offending people if they offend the wrong people. (While others who do equally horrible things -- like when Spike Lee tweeted the address of a completely innocent and uninvolved person asking people to harass and threaten them, he was not removed or de-verified https://www.hollywoodreporter.com/thr-esq/spike-lees-defense... )

> food in supermarkets wasn't __that__ expensive compared to Berlin.

From a recent comparison Stockholm is more expensive, but cost of living has more than that, using numbeo [0] I see that utilities and childcare are significantly more expensive in Berlin and this link [1] I can also see that health care is more expensive in Berlin.

A month public transport ticket costs almost the same (890 SEK vs 81 Euro) and I think the the Stockholm one covers more distance.

As for market size I don't know how big the difference is since I guess there are simply more people in Berlin to compensate for the increased number of companies. From personal and friend's experience I have never seen any problem finding work during the last years.

that's definitely not enough to say that it's unlawful.
High sulfur diesel is super nasty, and the shipping industry has to clean up, but it's not obvious how.

I mean, let's say we forbid them from using high S diesel. What happens to this diesel then? Do we dump it in tailing ponds? pump it back into the ground? It's not obvious what to do with this. At least at sea S emissions are spread out minimizing impact (as opposed to localized)

I'm not saying not to do anything. I'm asking, what are we to do? (I have some ideas in mind, so it's not impossible)
> Asking the poster about X, and offering a solution Y' which will solve X should at least be attempted.

No!

Goodness me, why is this so difficult?

It should not be attempted. That’s an arbitrary expression of your opinion on the poster.

If the question can’t be solved in the way it’s asked let it die gracefully with a “no you can’t do it that why” and suck up the down votes when someone comes along and proves yes you actually can.

I know it’s frustrating for you, but asking a question isn’t about you.

It’s a glib response to suggest that this is just done when Y is a terrible question for new users.

It’s also very common when Y is a very good just very difficult or obscure question.

I think it’s quite clear that a common sense approach isn’t working on this topic.

The solution really is, if you have nothing meaningful on topic to contribute, then don’t.

There really needs to be a way to make this behaviour on SO punitive somehow, giving people points for it results in the current situation.

If you’d like to see more of Mesh in action, here’s a long form video of an early version showing how to write a primitive RSS reader in a Mesh spreadsheet and use it as the backend to a website. Back then typing into a blank cell created a name; it now creates a value and uses the cell position as the default name. Cell references also had to be preceded with $; we now just add cell names as properties of the global object so you don’t need a prefix.

This is actually a pretty damning indictment. The most charitable thing you could say about Amazon vis-à-vis fake reviews is that they would like to get rid of them but are just overwhelmed by the difficulty of the problem. But this seems to indicate a tacit endorsement on their part. I guess we can’t expect any serious action on this problem anytime soon.

Trees don't solve our other environmental problems of plastic, carcinogens, extinctions, etc.

Yes, plant trees as a partial solution. Consider it a starting point, nowhere near an endpoint.

We can dance around it all we like, partial solutions like planting trees don't address that the environment reacts to our population and behavior.

Ultimately we must lower our birth rate and produce less or we will override partial solutions. Projections about or population leveling off would change when assumptions change, like the world being cleaner from planting all these trees. Unless we change our cultural values, goals, and behavior away from growth and externalizing costs.

On a practical standpoint, I don't think the article tackles the concept of forest management at all. Other than what's been going on the past few months, the Amazon doesn't see wildfires like the Pacific Northwest does. An Amazon forest can be denser per acre compared to a NW forest. Thinning forests is a common practice, across America at least, to manage burnable material that naturally occurs in a forest. Plus to deal with a lot of beetles and other pests that have been killing the forests. At the end, it's not enough anymore to just plant a tree and call it day in most forests. Management needs to be apart of the plan too. It would suck to plant a ton of trees, just to see it go up in smoke.
I think you're on to something here.

I think what OP argues (and I agree with), is there’s no solution, or even partial mitigation, to climate crisis, wherein we keep the party going and due to some magic science in Alaska things are suddenly ok. This is a lie. If this lie is needed “to get a message across” so be it.
>I’m not sure if this is just more grandstanding of the “SJWs run amok” variety

Or perhaps a counter-balance to the "Stallman run amok/let's crucify him" variety? How about that?

Is the "tip of the iceberg" meant to be sarcastic? One of the headings is even "1. Richard Stallman has problematic opinions". Opinions are enough to have someone persecuted? What happened to free discourse then?

Are only "non problematic" opinions allowed? And who would be the arbiter of this? At some point a gay man being married was also a "problematic opinion". Or a mixed race couple. And not in Nazi Germany, in e.g. 70s USA. Let that sink in, before condemning "problematic" opinions.

"MIT, by endorsing Stallman, also gives legitimacy to these ideas."

MIT endorses Stallman as an academic or whatever he employs him for. Not as a wholesale controller and endorser of Stallman's ideas and personality.

"I recall being told early in my freshman year “If RMS hits on you, just say ‘I’m a vi user’ even if it’s not true.”"

That's a horrifying story? At best it's a joke about someone who hits on freshman students frequently.

"He literally used to have a mattress on the floor of his office. He kept the door to his office open, to proudly showcase that mattress and all the implications that went with it."

Oh, the humanity.

"the mattress was also known to have shirtless people lounging on it…"

Spoken like a person who has never experienced the 60s and 70s campuses...

"I don’t know if he and I were the last two left, but at a table with only the two of us, Richard Stallman told me of his misery and that he’d kill himself if I didn’t go out with him."

OK, that's creepy. Could also be a desperate attempt at connection by a depressive. It was also a conversation between two adults, and one could tell him to fuck (which from what I gather, is what happened, if more eloquently, and without further issue).

"But MIT is a privileged place. We have the right to choose who we admit, hire, or endorse."

I thought the whole idea these days was against privilege.

And where were all these good souls when their privileged MIT helped threaten Aaron Swartz with jail, and helped led him to commit suicide?
I'm currently living in an apartment in Switzerland where the house and the whole street is a UNESCO World Heritage. Due to the building regulations that accompanies, lots of wood is still used. Like for example the whole attic is made of wood.

Because of that we can call the firefighters at not cost, even false alarms are not penalized. But no mandatory smoke alarms or fire extinguishers even though this building still has a working old time furnace for heating. Go figure.

Maybe they expect the Swiss neighbor watch to raise an alarm more accurately than a smoke detector would. Old Swiss people are always suspiciously watching over their neighbors.
We aren't here to just answer your homework question. Why you're doing something is part of the conversation and its context.

It's also part of asking a good question. I don't understand the uproar especially on a Q&A site.
>Even with mass shootings a daily occurrence, the gun industry has lobbied its way out of any meaningful oversight.

As another posted has stated: guns are highly regulated. The conditions used to infer "mass shootings a daily occurrence" selects every event involving a firearm and at least 4 people regardless of their level of involvement.

This also discounts defensive gun use numbers.

Agreed. In your original comment however you wrote "smarter". Granted, it's a rather vague term, but I would say the type of progress we are making in sciences could easily qualify.

There was a similar case in the US.
In the 70's, there was a crooked cop who was convicted (for some lewd acts) and had to surrender himself to prison. He chose to run instead and spent 22 years in the forest.

Eventually he couldn't take it anymore and surrendered himself. He was then given a suspended sentence citing that he already has been through enough.

Here's a podcast episode on that: https://snapjudgment.org/cop-out
Even if you do consider college a want (which is highly dubious in today's wage earning environment and with competition from globalization that didn't exist before), rent and medical care are the furthest possible thing from want.
Your experience with F21 is how I felt about H&M but going from 2001 to 2005. It was still a really new store in the US at the time and brought that European slim fit that worked best with my body type which so many American brands lacked at the time. I still pop into H&M once in a while but it's definitely not my main store anymore, I honestly don't know what is. I feel like H&M really popularized fast fashion more so than F21 but I'm also looking at this from a very male (albeit queer pseudo fashionable male if that makes a difference) pov. Granted stores like Old Navy already had cheap clothing at the time but it wasn't really considered "fashion", it was more like everyday super casual wear.
Many tech organizations talk a lot about culture, put effort into cultivating culture, develop their own hiring processes unique to tech, etc.

There are also, for whatever reason, differences of employee distribution across gender, ethnicity, socioeconomic, etc.

I think it's reasonable to suspect that tech organizations overall would tend to have different hiring practices, cultures, and distributions of individual behavior than organizations in other fields overall.

I don't know the research on this, but there's a lot of grassroots talk that they do.

1. Here I would do something like this:

log("deducting credit...", DeductCreditInRatingGroup),

...

log(Msg, true) -> do_the_logging();
log(Msg, false) -> ok.

Nowadays though, you should really use the new logger introduced in Erlang 21. There you can do run-time filtering on many different parameters, or even write your own handlers. Using if-statements is usually considered an anti-pattern in Erlang, and I think very common coming from languages where only if-statements exist. Problems are almost always better solved by using case, or even better, pattern matching in function heads.

2. Sounds like one of the rare cases where you care about the error and can also handle it. In the use case you mentioned, I would buffer the data outside of the loop that produces it and wrap the loop in a try-catch statement. That way, you don't loose the data if one iteration crashes.

4. Erlang usually ends up being good at latency and concurrency (scalability over cores), together with a smaller and easier to read code base. I'm curious about your case, and what would have made Java a better fit. If you share a lot of global objects, Java might be faster for some things (at the cost of concurrency usually). Erlang has tools for that as well though (e.g. ETS and recently persistent_term).

>Speak up now, or don't bother to cry crocodile tears and set up the "black ribbon" when we eventually lose Stallman, and tell stories of how he inspired you, etc...

If so, I would not want to work there.
