I share your love of the Sun keyboard layout. I cut my Unix teeth in part on Sun systems and really miss those keyboards. I would get one of the modern copies, but in my job as an admin, I'm always on Someone Else's Computer and it would just be confusing. Maybe when I retire...
If you have a small website google will render your JavaScript for every crawled page. For large websites only a sample of pages are fully rendered. Your seo will suffer.
Providers definitely have geographical maps of IP ranges; these are useful for customer support and network diagnostics and maintenance.

Whether they sell this info is unknown to me. I suppose they legitimately could, given its being coarse.
Not necessarily a random page, but an “it works” page so you know your server works.
Finding parked cars: AWS vs. Google computer vision
Most likely not a performance tradeoff. For every Get and Set, we do lookups anyway. Caffeine, for comparison, always sets the key-value, and then if the key doesn't get admitted due to policy, deletes it later.
It's not common at all. The Q50 had it for a while then reverted, and still had a manual link for backup. Beyond that, just some prototypes.
I'm having a hard time identifying the author's primary motivation in this vague cloud of worries and demands. If it's the fear that incisive criticism is dying in contemporary commentary, he does at least provide supporting evidence by getting this piece published at all.
I think we have to stop segmenting our thoughts into “software” and “hardware” and instead look at issues like the 737 Max as an integrated system failure. “Software” failures can easily manifest themselves into hardware failures; thinking of them as separate systems can lead to a complacency mindset of “its just software so we don’t have to be as rigorous in our design”
One of the main reasons I never bothered to learn React was that using Razor syntax in .cshtml on my ASP .NET projects has all the convenience of react with no client-side overhead. However I understand there is some benefit to delegating some of the work to clients considering the power of modern devices.
Isn’t this a case where you delay the video on the TV side to match the latency of the audio? I assume your TV has an option for audio delay.

The problem that I’d see is that you probably don’t have this setup all the time, so switching your TV back and forth for an audio delay would be annoying. That and 500 ms might be more of a delay than your TV can handle.
However they are quite average regarding typical European corporate stacks, either Java or .NET.
Great article. Now do “climate change”!
Recall the saying that science proceeds one funeral at a time. I believe it was coined as part of describing the shift to acceptance of plate tectonics.
And we sit idly by and do nothing. Yet companies and famous people have the gall to publicly criticize in the most damning terms the United States while meekly saying not a word against the almighty CCP.
Is there an age at which you favor forcing scientists into retirement?
Sun Type 6 USB is my favorite keyboard, ever. I was thrilled to find that the keymapping to Mac OS was sane. Disappointed that the special keys on the left hand side did not produce scan codes for the Mac to recognize.

It has a soft yet firm keypress feel, one which I have never felt in any other keyboard before. And most importantly, it has Control in the right place, as a proper Unix keyboard would.
nice! Does it always assume you're writing "code" or even "JavaScript"? can you use it to store regular notes?
Similar experience here... I am able to look at a computer or phone screen right up until I go to sleep. The time at which I get sleepy, and ready for bed, has to do more with my overall daily routine. I practice patterns of making myself go to bed at the same time. The screen time does not seem to make me stay awake. Also, if I am not sleepy when it is 'bed time', exercise after work is a sure fire way to get to sleep earlier.
Zip5 codes are allocated by geography and population. See very large rural tracts of land in AZ or NM that have a large zip5 code area. Zip-9 probably could be associated with one household. Zips are actually a pain in the ass for purposes other than mail delivery because they change from time to time, are not cleanly allocated to geography or logical features on a map. They can be discontinuous and overlapping. Many companies employee proprietary means of assigning geographic identifiers that are not dependent on zip, population size or anything other than geo.

Yep. Every bit as easy to track as cash.
Did you adjust for brightness?
Sometimes I like to alternate between two features or bug fixes just to stay motivated with a bit of variety. It does break the kanban spirit a bit, but I avoid allowing anything to hang out too long in the “in progress” column to prevent procrastinating on a tough issue. Most of the time I only have one issue in progress at a time.
Just made the same observation, then scrolled down to see yours.
Heeiille

can I buy being upvoted outta the shadow ban?
Well this sucks.

I depend on these to keep thousands of user's ips private. IPGeoBlock on many of Wordpress installs keep a lot of bad bots (and humans) out - and there are already options baked into that plugin to query several online DB's with the user IP to find country code...
Most of my sites that allow other users to login, I keep their data private by telling ipGeoBlock to download the DB onto our server, check that, and NOT query the other online services.

Sure would be nice if you could still provide
GeoLite2 Country
GeoLite2 ASN

just remove all the USA ones :) - then I could have it query the downloaded DB if it finds a result block them - and if not result then let them try to login..

So they are going to offer the DB if registered and agree to whatever so called terms.. we should be able to get someone in a country without a jurisdiction that considers USA agreements legal - to get the DB and put it online right?

having to sign up with maxmind alone is reducing privacy for me - I guess unintended consequences - but sheesh!
I've got a few SoloKeys too. The USB C one broke in half and looking on Amazon reviews this is an issue for lots of people. Meanwhile my OnlyKey has been running strong 3 years in and has been on my keychain the whole time. Also SoloKey doesn't manage passwords at all, while OnlyKey does.
Most any saas offering is going to be very write heavy in comparison.
I ended up using a (cheap) USB DAC to get around the RPi’s onboard audio. It’s a bit cheaper than a HAT, but can be hit or miss for compatibility.
I'm sure what were fake. The US GAVE Saddam WMDs during the war with Iran (maybe you don't consider these WMDs). No one argues that he didn't use mustard gas on the Kurds.
I don’t think most people realize how software dependent their “dumb” car is. From antilock braking to throttle response to steering response in some cases is largely controlled by software. It goes way beyond the infotainment systems we intuitively think of as software
JMBL, a word game for iOS (https://apps.apple.com/us/app/jmbl-word-puzzle-game/id124873...)
SEO alone is a poor reason to use server side rendering. Services like https://prerender.io/ completely solve SEO for SPA's and can be as cheap as $0 per month. Compare that to dozens/hundreds of hours of engineering time spent setting up an SSR implementation; it is a no-brainer.
Did you get the glasses because you believed they would help your sleep, or for other reasons? One solution to why so many people talk about the improvements with Flux or glasses could be a simple placebo affect.
I use blue filters more for comfort reasons than for health reasons. For me it is less harsh looking and it just let's me work for longer.
Thanks for that source. She claims to have come up with the term on Feb. 3rd, 1998 and the OSI was formed the same year. That suggests the term wasn't used long before the OSI.
There's been a few malicious users here and there and some interesting communities, we usually remove them pretty quickly, especially when they're reported. I'll do a check right now and try to remove whatever it was you stumbled across, thanks!

We're also working on a more robust system to filter content that some users might not want to see, although anything extreme should be removed either way.
This is great and look forward to checking back for more. Added the blog rss feed to my reader.

Some points of feedback to take or ignore.

1. art on its own is so broad that it's hard to grasp where to go or what resources may be relevant to me on the home page. I may not be the absolute beginner you're aiming for, but at the same time most people looking for inspiration or resources usually search for "drawing" or "painting" and not "art" on its own.

2. The tutorials and guides in the store section look like a great way to learn at a low price. Nothing wrong with earning money from your work, but offering exposure to artists for a fee to be featured in a blog feels weird/icky.

3. The Instagram embeds on the blog don't work unless you click through to them which is annoying. No doubt IG has enormous influence on art/artists, but making people click through to another web site to see a blog photo is not a good experience.

4. The footer links under Artist Utilities should be on the main top navigation or somewhere else more prominent. Some really neat resources you have but likely missed by many because they're buried at the bottom of the page.

Overall I think it's a great idea to offer a mix of free articles/resources mixed with paid services.
> Furthermore, many routes chosen are often potentially not very pleasant for the cyclist

And how. I've found that my preferred routes don't just differ from what Google Maps might suggest, they also tend to avoid all the places that my city thought might be a good place for a posted bike lane. The bike lanes are all on noisy, busy streets that aren't pleasant to ride on, and the bike lanes themselves are often full of delivery trucks and rideshare drivers.

I choose a bicycle as my primary mode of transportation specifically because I dislike all the noise and rush and stress that automobiles represent, facilitate and encourage. I've already decided to take 5 minutes longer to get where I'm going for the sake of having a more pleasant life, I can spare another 5 minutes in order to have an even more pleasant life. Worst case scenario, it still beats anything Peloton wants to sell me.
Mindmatters.ai, never heard of it. Looking at their list of writers, many of them are associated with the discovery institute, which is pushing various versions of creationism, so a very questionable set of "science" writers. For some reason they have many many articles posted on headline news bashing tesla, so consider this. tesla like any company is worthy of criticism on various issues of course, just as is the discovery 'institute'.

I agree that Tesla was way too ambitious about getting self driving working, saying almost every year they are close. Just like google waymo and countless other companies. It doesn't excuse the hype problem. I doubt a car will have self driving in less than 10 years.

Additionally, shared ownership should be rare. Most objects should have a single owner that is responsible for them. This is not only better for performance, but also makes the system easier to understand.
I mean, this is story of management incompetence basically. This has much less to do with person nit accepting criticism or being outright sociopath/psychopath. This has to do with management not knowing how to fire people, keep paperwork and getting scared when the word layer is used.

It is hard to prove racism or sexist discrimination. It is just not easy at all and you need more then assertion.
How is IP to broad location even PII?
Organic and inorganic chemistry are almost two separate subjects. I also took organic freshman year in college with a professor who I think probably ended up in the running for a Nobel Prize. I'm not sure he was particularly bad but it was a large lecture class, I hated organic and it was one of the first subjects I ever didn't really grok at some level, and actually somewhat changed majors because of it.

Inorganic on the other hand. I ended up getting a grad degree in Material Science which is closely related to aspects of solid state chemistry--so, yes, I liked aspects of chemistry. Just not organic.
Challenges in adding widescreen mode to Duke Nukem II clone
That's exactly the point he's making. If you use a frontend js framework and you have to do SSR, then there's no longer any reason to use a JS frontend framework, because the reason they were made was to offload to clients the rendering, at the price of more complexity.

Back then, the cloud was not a thing yet, there was no Docker, no Kubernetes, no nice APIs to start instances, so it made sense to offload some computation to clients. Today, no longer.
> Until now, Nexedi has been maintaining a derivative of ChromiumOS with some extra features: NayuOS. However, the gap between ChromiumOS and its proprietary counterpart ChromeOS has increased so much that we see no possibility to maintain a usable NayuOS in the long terme.

In what ways has the gap between ChromiumOS and ChromeOS increased? Is that true of Chromium and Chrome as well?

> Nexedi has thus decided to support the /e/ foundation and its sister corporation, with the hope that /e/ would some day become a usable OS for desktop or laptop.

Good for them, I think/hope!
You definitely can [0], but this one would probably be hard for google without significantly modifying the architecture of gmail in ways that would remove its revenue model. For example, they could open source a client that had audit-able end-to-end encryption, but then they couldn't optimize ad revenue by aggregating and mining large email datasets.

I have an extensive sonos setup for my business. I’ve experienced a lot of trouble with the system just cutting out, skipping tracks over and over, and connecting to Apple Music. Every couple of weeks it just totally shits the bed.

Would love speakers that could serve music off my Synology NAS reliably and without microphones in my speakers to spy on me.

With the whole google/nest fiasco I don’t want to actively try to thwart a speaker from collecting data on me and my family. It’s exhausting.

Someone needs to start a company, like, Elgato Eve, where their primary feature product is privacy focused products. They would have my money every time.
Literally anything that contradicts your bosses position.

I've watched very experienced, top school trained MDs freeze up and begin to stutter, as they've just realized they said something their lab chief does not like.

Coincidentally, that chief writes treatment guidelines and consults the FDA, and is probably one of the most powerful physicians in the profession.

Medicine is a very hierarchical top-down command structure type of field.
A stupid question if I may... how do you generate revenue from visarequirements.site? I have not seen ads or promotional content.. perhaps I did not look deep enough? What am I missing?
My god, uBeam is still alive? By now, that has to be the longest running joke in the Silicon Valley.
Yeah but unless you're some rockstar engineer living in a high demand area with lots of quality job openings you can quickly find yourself running out of quality options with this strategy backfiring a lot since the top employers can also afford to be as selective as you and go for someone else without your "baggage".

Just keep your dirty laundry private would be my advice.
The issue here is nodejs, react ssr is costly, taking all you cpu time, blocking the event loop and slowing down your app. On a multi-threaded (async or sync) web server this wouldn't be a issue most of the time.

Some add additional nodejs servers specifically and only for SSR, increasing complexity.

airbnb created https://github.com/airbnb/hypernova to solve exactly this problem.
This is a study on mice, which from my minimal research appear to be more wakeful at night. I wouldn't consider this study useful at all in determining how blue light affects humans' sleep.
A trading system in C# or Java is not, practically by definition, state-of-the-art. To suggest otherwise just demonstrates not knowing the State of the Art.

"Capable" is plausible.

Sorry, I doesn't make the rules.
That's true, but in that case observables are little more than syntactic sugar over callbacks. The way I've seen them used in codebases a lot is to decrease the pain of global state--but that's only delaying that pain, and global state SHOULD be painful.

That said, I suppose the answer is just, "don't do that". I may have spoken out of ignorance of how people frequently use mobx, since my experience with mobx is very limited. I probably should have constrained my statement to only talk about Redux, since I have a lot more experience with that.

That is pretty creepy. That is 1960s, and assuming CIA hasn't evolved a moral compass since, I imagine they might not have completely given up on the idea and it's interesting to think what it might look like today with all nano and wireless technology.
Too much typing. Try FUDO.
I think this story was fabricated or at least built around a misunderstanding.

With that said... given the opportunities the Chinese have it would be plain crazy if they haven't at least tried similar things.
I wonder if VirtualBox would run on this.

I see that some phones have 6GB RAM, and that should be enough for at least two or three VMs. And many have lots of CPu cores.

But maybe I'm missing something.

Note that for the 767-2C/KC-46 it's very likely the case that the 767-2C wouldn't share a common type-rating with the rest of the 767 family (as this wasn't a requirement for the KC-46 contract!), and for the 737 MAX a lot of design decisions were driven by the desire for the 737 MAX to have a common type rating with earlier 737 models.

From the 767-2C type certificate:

> The Boeing 767-2C has not been evaluated by the Flight Standards Board. No pilot type rating or training, checking and currency requirement determinations have been made.

Note the only 767-2Cs built were to certify the type, no airline has ordered the freighter aircraft.
Europe, unfortunately...

But thanks for the link, maybe I can find something similar :)

This is part of why separated bike lanes are so important.
I'll definitely take you up on that offer. Thanks for the feedback, I appreciate it!
Proven Social Viral News Sites That Produce Results
It sounds like confirmation bias to make a universal principle out of not needing a highly usable and accessible landing page/web site based off your success in a narrow B2B context, especially if you product is spreading word of mouth. Imagine how many inpatient people got frustrated with the video/landing page on mobile and closed the page? Are you running analytics? We could prove bounce rate against your theory of not needing a highly usable website UX.

It's just good for business to make the user interface as seamless and friction free as possible to get users the information they need at a glance to make a decision and covert faster = more conversions and more revenue $$$
There may be some of this going on, but the popular idea that childhood memories of sexual abuse are commonly "invented" or "confabulated" is in many cases itself a false notion, actively spread by paid defenders of men accused of child abuse. The False Memory Syndrome Foundation actually dissolved today. Good thread on its efforts to bend the discussion of childhood sexual abuse here: https://twitter.com/mike_salter/status/1211442594821001216

"FMSF catalyzed a 180 degree turn in global media coverage of childhood sexual abuse so that, by the mid-1990s, news stories about CSA focused predominantly on the threat of false allegations ... The notion that CSA memories are particularly untrustworthy has become a widespread 'common sense' that destabilizes police investigations and prosecutions, and obstructs access to healthcare and social supports."

FYI, this is fake news OnlyKey has been around since 2016 and has been open source the whole time. Solo was launched in 2018 and claimed to be the first FIDO2 open source security key, this was only true because at the time OnlyKey wasn't FIDO2. OnlyKey was the first open source security key. Also Solo isn't even a viable alternative to YubiKey as it doesn't support challenge-response, static passwords, or OpenPGP. OnlyKey does support all of those things.
But it's good to have the option, no? Always depends what you try to license, and in some cases I think it's good to have a very strong copyleft license available. gcc might not be it, other software might.

Also, I think saying 'protect' is quite one-sided, and signalling virtue while at the same time unfairly painting a copy left license like Parity as sorta predatory.

Just my opinion, of course, but I wish every piece of software in the world was copy left licensed. I know that is unrealistic on millions of levels, but I still think it's a valid course of action to try to get us at least a tiny bit in that direction, and choosing a license that restricts a few small parts of select freedoms in exchange for that. Just because OSI has been seen as the champion of open source in the past doesn't mean we all agree that was justified, and a good thing. Most people think differently to me in this regard, or don't really care, but this is not and will never be a settled argument.
