Yeah, I'm not even a gamer, but a relative got a Quest for Christmas, I tried it, and I was like "OK, this is pretty awesome." Without being too cliche it felt like the holodeck to me. Could easily imagine me playing games on it frequently, let alone a true gamer.
I am long on VR. It really does look good.

I think everyone's experience has been ruined by crappy. The 90s had a VR far but they sucked. Of you're putting a phone across your face, it sucks. The market was spoiled by crappy imitators and gimicks.

Anytime someone tries a real VR headset for the first time, they are usually amazed. I have personally sold 3 headsets just by having friends of mine try mine for a few minutes.
You make it sound like the idea is "if you GPL your driver, we'll maintain it for you", which is kinda bullshit. For one, kernel devs only really maintain what they want to maintain. They'll do enough work to make it compile but they aren't going to go out of their way to test it. Regressions do happen. More importantly though, they very purposefully do no maintain any stability in the driver ABI. The policy is actively hostile to the concept of proprietary drivers.

Which is really kinda of hilarious considering that so much modern hardware requires proprietary firmware blobs to run.
P vs. NP and the Computational Complexity Zoo [video]
Just to be clear, I'm not saying they weren't innovative. I'm saying they weren't as innovative as they claim. Apollo, Masscomp, Pyramid, Sequent, Encore, Stellar, Ardent, Elxsi, Cydrome, and others were also innovating plenty during Sun's heyday, as were DEC and even HP. To hear ex-Sun engimarketers talk, you'd think they were the only ones. Reality is that they were in the mix. Their fleetingly greater success had more to do with making some smart (or lucky?) strategic choices than with any overall level of innovation or quality, and mistaking one for the other is a large part of why that success didn't last.

If you have a proper disaster recovery plan then yes. All of the configuration of the entire system should be documented at least, if not generated by version controlled code. Then the only thing that needs to be backed up is actually data storage on volumes with snapshots or block storage services.
If you don't go with a static site generator (like Hugo), make sure you stay on top of security updates.

Even if you go with a static generator, don't forget to harden your droplet and set up automatic system security updates.

When picking a theme, check for maintenance. I've found most to be abandoned, and that can hurt when your website building software updates to a new major version.

Just for the record, for the most part, it should be legal to sell CD's of most Linux distributions, assuming you honor the GPL and any other licenses for any software that's physically on the disk.
I'm fairly sure parent meant 'EGLStream', not GBM. KDE and GNOME's Wayland compositors both support EGLStream.

What Is Cash Flow and Why It Is Important
As this thread and post proves, quite a lot of people have no issue reading + understanding it. One of the goals to fit a lot of functionality on 1 screen which helps, especially when you get older, but it always helped. No scrolling, searching, trying to find in which abstraction in which of the 1000s of files with 'readable' code things are stored. You open 1 file and yes it will take you (a lot) more time to read the same length (in lines) page of, let's say Java or C#, but in those languages you will need often 10s, 100s or even 1000s of these pages (in many different files because that's 'readable') to write the same functionality idiomatically in that language as that one pager in this style. So people who take the patience to read and understand this will actually be more productive in my experience: I am claiming that it will take most people (a lot) more time to read and understand this code if it was written in a traditional way in C or whatever, with proper variable names, spread over many nicely created .h and .c files than it takes someone who has done this before to understand and work on this. And that gets more obvious when you actually start using APL/K/J which allow even more expressiveness into the language and will let you even compress more functionality in less characters.

However it does not naturally scale to teams. But each way of working has its own strengths and weaknesses; if you are aiming for large teams working together on large projects, I would not recommend this. That is not because of readability, but because the code is so terse that you would, even with 2 people, be changing the same code a lot of the time, so it's more efficient to do it alone or in pair programming (which does work well; also remotely in an APL-like in my experience).
I agree that a Hello World is fairly useless example for anyone already familiar with programming languages. Perhaps something like a Fibonacci function should be the de facto short syntax example, as is common in functional languages. More useful though would be to have an example of how composition data structures work in the language - standard example could be a binary tree.
Performance wise, Intel is streets behind.
John Baldessari: An Artist in a Class by Himself
Back in the ol' cyberpunk 90s, the vision of VR always included gloves for fine-grained manipulation of the virtual space.

I still believe that the combination of VR goggles and gloves (can't forget the wrist keyboard!) with the right software would lead to a quantum leap in 3D modeling. Guess we'll see what happens.

> If the FS reads data and gets a checksum mismatch, it should be able to use ioctls (or equivalent) to select specific copies/shards and figure out which ones are good. I work on one of the four or five largest storage systems in the world, and have written code to do exactly this (except that it's Reed-Solomon rather than RAID).

This is all great, and I assume it works great. But it is no way generalizable to all the filesystems Linux has to support (at least at the moment). I could only see this working in a few specific instances with a particular set of FS setups. Even more complicating is the fact that most RAIDS are hardware based, so just using ioctls to pull individual blocks wouldn’t work for many (all?) drivers. Convincing everyone to switch over to software raids would take a lot of effort.

There is a legitimate need for these types of tools in the sub-PB, non-clustered, storage arena. If you’re working on a sufficiently large storage system, these tools and techniques are probably par for the course. That said, I definitely have lost 100GBs of data from a multi-PB storage system from a top 500 HPC system due to bit rot. (One bad byte in a compressed data file left the data after the bad byte unrecoverable). This would not have happened on ZFS.

ZFS was/is a good effort to bring this functionality lower down the storage hierarchy. And it worked because it had knowledge about all of the storage layers. Checksumming files/chunks helps best if you know about the file system and which files are still present. And it only makes a difference if you can access the lower level storage devices to identify and fix problems.
Like "clinically proven," the term you emphasized is unregulated and means nothing to a consumer.
I have something similar in price but for my wrist and it is ballpark accurate (so up to about 5 off depending on many factors). But only when used as described on the correct wrist. Tested with my doctor and he showed the other wrist is highly inaccurate.

Good enough for home testing but that is about it.
1. What is the advantage of a DAO in your eyes? (Your comment mostly says that one could be done, not why.)

2. The Rust community is made of people who have been trying very hard to write, essentially, a bug-free compiler and a bug-resistant programming language, and they know it is incredibly unrealistic to be 100% bug-free. How would you convince them that a DAO with its terms specified in code and not in human legal documents would not have even a single exploitable bug?
Not sure why the downvotes, as this has been my experience numerous times, particularly in the Node.JS world.
In the 26 years or so I have used Linux, I have had corrupted filesystems with reiserfs, XFS, btrfs, and ext[23]. In the case of reiserfs and XFS it was practically impossible to recover the filesystem (IIRC reiserfs would reattach anything that resembled a B-tree). For ext[23], it was surprisingly easy to get back most of the data. Never had any corruption with ZFS or ext4. I didn't try to fix the btrfs filesystem, since it was a machine that had to be repurposed anyway.
Each of these signs would be considered a general character flaw by many people. Then again, the headline itself is loaded with a strong opinion about providing oral sex: homophobic, misogynist, or both take your pick. Boils down to brogrammer self-assuring.

If a person likes to work with their hands, work outdoors, or interact with the general public, they are less likely to enjoy programming. Even if they have all of those traits.

And that's fair, but what confuses me is that I never see this question raised on non-Linux platforms. No one considers Windows drivers a derivative of Windows, or Mac kernel extensions a derivative of Darwin.

Should the currently-in-development Windows ZFS port reach maturity and gain widespread adoption (which feels possible!), do you foresee a possibility of Oracle suing? If not, why is Linux different?

"Why we've never fallen in love with 3-d glasses" -fixed the title.

Science fiction predictions of the future are almost universally comically bad. People should know this by now; we completely lack positronic brains, warp drives, moon bases and tricorders. VR is a science fiction prediction of the future, just like positronic brains. The fact that people won't pay lots of money for a cheesy 3-d glasses experience as a proxy for science fiction VR shouldn't surprise anyone.

> Simon Phipps (Sun's Chief Open Source Officer at the time), who had introduced Cooper as "the one who actually wrote the CDDL",[19] did not immediately comment, but later in the same video, he says, referring back to the license issue, "I actually disagree with Danese to some degree",[20] while describing the strong preference among the engineers who wrote the code for a BSD-like license, which was in conflict with Sun's preference for something copyleft, and that waiting for legal clearance to release some parts of the code under the then unreleased GNU GPL v3 would have taken several years, and would probably also have involved mass resignations from engineers (unhappy with either the delay, the GPL, or both—this is not clear from the video). Later, in September 2006, Phipps rejected Cooper's assertion in even stronger terms.[21]

So of the available licenses at the time, Engineering wanted BSD and Legal wanted GPLv3, so the compromise was CDDL.
Ignoring his ramblings, but saying what I think will be important:

Control. The problem with technological advances today aren't with the tech itself, it's that the burst of consumer users allowed people like apple to turn computing into a user prison where the user has no control. This then set a standard, and many people have grown up without ever using a free and open source piece of software.

So AR and VR and AI and virtual assistants etc, the main problem is always going to go back to the root of why RMS started GNU in the first place; because he saw the future of tech was a fight for control of the user. He was just a man ahead of his time and socially awkward enough that it was and is easy to dismiss him based on what are essentially ad hominem attacks.

The future I want is FOSS/FOSH, regardless of the tech!

First off, if it's overwhelming or if it goes overboard, people just won't use it, so your example of advertisements on every surface and excessive tracking of what users are looking at and doing at all times will likely either not happen or occur but never be demonstrated in any practicable, user-facing way.

Second, even with Facebook owning Oculus and investing heavily into its success (rightly so, by the way, the Oculus hardware is phenomenal), they're only successful because other software developers have made such great use of their systems. In some cases, Facebook has bought the successful software/companies involves (Beat Saber...), but it'll take a long time before they establish both a top-tier VR hardware and software footholds.
And yet people use them all the damn time because they're incredibly useful and even more importantly are relatively easy to put together compared to kernel modules.

Linus is just plain wrong on this one.
I have a lot of experience in building open source foundations, from my time at Apache, Eclipse and the Linux Foundation, lots of pros and cons across different entities in terms of how much professional help you want (versus volunteer labor). I generally don't recommend standing up your own foundation from scratch unless you're extremely well funded. The Linux Foundation essentially offers "Foundation as a Service" for projects. It hosts a variety of projects and organizations, from LetsEncrypt.org, to Kubernetes (CNCF) to GraphQL to NodeJS (OpenJS) to the R Consortium and more.

No, it's a severe malfunctioning of a complex and too powerful AI system which detected the subjects it had to protect as threats. It's similar to what immunologists call auto-immune reactions.

For it to be murder according to criminal law, at least the engineer responsible for the AI, or the architect, have to be found guilty of purposeful negligence of monitoring and reporting proper functioning/behavior of said AI. So, it's not the AI that is "guilty", but their makers.

The criminal law is not applicable for AIs, but for their programmers/makers, for now. For the laws to be applicable for AIs, they need to be competent or sentient enough for us to acknowledge them as equal to us from the perspective of rights, and therefore law (similar to age of majority). Until then the engineers are responsible for whatever an AI does wrong.

CCTVs exist for the business and to protect the business, and used to actually be closed-circuit. Now that a lot of them are becoming "cloud", they will create a lot of the same problems.

I really enjoy VR games.

The problem I have is motion sickness. I can only play for very short periods of time, and I feel sick after playing.

I've had the Rift for about a year, and despite people telling me I would get used to it, I still get motion sickness.

Because I've had the experience so many times, now just thinking about playing the game will trigger the sensation of nausea, which prevents me from even wanting to play.

While true, Snowden position as administrator placed him outside the usual compartmentalization (because he worked on connecting separate parts of the infrastructure)[0], and placed him in a unique position to realize what was happening and to exfiltrate the proof.

The other thing is that the statistics for car travel include all journeys by car. You can do a lot to improve your own safety by avoiding the common risk factors: not driving drunk, driving in daytime (that also avoids drunk drivers), not being in an all-teenage vehicle, driving well-rested & so on. If you do that, per journey you'll be safer than in your regular commercial aviation airplane.

I hope to build a system primarily for a Valve Index this year. I think VR is here to stay, and it reminds of the early days of PC's and pc gaming, when a PC could be 4k (I mean they still can be, but you get what I am saying), and games required the top level hardware and didn't always try to run on yesterdays potato, an artificial limitation put on way to many things today.
