Weirdly enough I loved Gnome 2 but for whatever odd reason I prefer some of the other DE's out there. I use Budgie (on Ubuntu) at work though it has quirks, otherwise Gnome 3 is ok or I just go for KDE. It definitely felt like Gnome went from all these amazing customizations to being so limited though.
I'd like to think we learned from all the horrible animated gifs in the past.
I don't spend money on any of those things, I have lived on way less than most articles like this say is possible my whole life. "But, even though you can be happy like that others can't, they need to indulge!", well shit, maybe that has something to do with their poverty then? Why should I help others indulge when I don't do it myself? Sounds like bullshit to me.
Really grateful that Mate exists. To this day, gnome3 has not reached parity with gnome2 on flexibility of configuration. I don't even make a lot of customizations to my desktop, but having the option when I need it is really key.

The rest of your post notwithstanding, I don't see why a CompSci major should need to know how to replace a stick of ram.
Some good ones I don't see yet, which I like because they very much follow the organic path you might follow doing things incrementally, rather than presenting everything full-blown.

HiDPI support is more than setting a font size for the task bar. The tricky part is getting application windows to rescale their UI as they're moved between screens with different scaling factors (e.g. from a notebook screen with high DPI to a projector with low DPI).

Nice work @eyvindn! A few questions:

1. Am I just imagining things, or do the results depend on the speed?

2. I'm able to erase the shape very easily at max speed, despite setting it to persist. Have you studied how much shape loss is required for the shape to vanish? (ex video https://youtu.be/zMQkTyzdphc)
They could have built one, but the concept just never seemed to occur to them.
Hi! Nice work. Genuine question, how do you plan to differentiate from the countless other non-coding website builders out there?
One of the other Leaver arguments were that there would be no reduction in access to the EU internal market, and that the UK would be able to get even better access to those markets by leaving.

Yes, I know it isn’t even coherent to expect “the EU” to grant the UK better access to the domestic markets of 27 nations than those nations give to each other, but when I raised this the response was either “that proves we should leave” or “that’s just project fear”, often preceded or followed with some comment about BMW, champagne, or the Spanish tourist industry.

Point is, they will renege on their promises on this topic no matter what, so while your argument would normally be sensible, nobody can rely on that this time.
You’re forgetting that China had a renaissance moment under the comunist party. They may not agree with some things but are majorly backing their government. They’re in a way rational, if the communist party fell overnight they’d be in big trouble, they wouldn’t be able to self govern democratically. The problem is that the party is corrupted and has absolutely no plans to reform. It will only get more corrupted before something significant changes.
Qualcomm alone covers 40%, and they're arguably the most likely to correctly implement their MMU (nevermind they've seen quite a few vulnerabilities in their MMU implementations over the years..)

Meditek uses a similar architecture, and I sure as hell don't trust their MMU.

Outside of Apple, Librem and Pine are just about the only way you're getting a USB attached baseband.

I've wondered this as well. Are there tools that will automatically run through all kinds of existing cryptographic algorithms to figure out which ones you're dealing with? Because it sounds to me like throwing enough layers of shoddy algorithms would obfuscate things enough that somebody would actually have to look at it and try to explicitly figure out a way to bypass what you're doing.
The US mostly tries to project itself as "the good guys" to its own inhabitants, and secondly to the local and international media. But in most of the world you are often faced with the business end of a US-operated or US-financed weapon.
> And the study you posted doesn't refute his anecdote

Sure. Just like all the studies on climate change don't refute my anecdote of "it was really really cold last weekend in my hometown".

If OP is simply giving an anecdote with no strings attached, that's great. Unfortunately, OP's anecdote carries the implication that giving families money, in general, does not solve any problems. Despite robust studies showing otherwise.

We have a git repo (called the devops repo) and we use sphinx to generate the html. We try to document lessons, post-mortems, decisions and tools we plan to evaluate.

Unfortunately, folks don't really read the docs (and I've learned from this thread that we're not alone ;)

Been thinking about this problem and thought to embed something like a quiz in the docs to make them interactive, yet still static - something like howtographql.com. Yet to try that approach, though.
I'm loving that this runs on a (end of lifed) blackberry passport browser. Not many 'cool' interactive webstuff works on older devices nowadays...

I've recently done quite a bit of work with SVGs, including those with animations. Some observations:

* Edge doesn't support SVG animation in the older engine, only the newer Chromium-based one.

* Until recently, Chrome had a massive memory leak with SVG animations that loop if left up for several hours.

* SVG animations often cause enough CPU load to spin up laptop fans.

* There is no SVG support in email, so using SVGs in an environment that has both web and emailed pieces can mean duplicate assets.

* For maximum styling control, SVGs must be inlined. You cannot modify most attributes via CSS if they're loaded as an image.

And one nit about the linked tool from this post, Motion.app is a bad application name choice for OS X. It conflicts with Apple's Motion.app, which more than a few designers are likely to have.

That fact check is only evaluating the very specific claim:

>"One in six people in the US get food poisoning each year and one in 66 people in the UK get food poisoning each year."

Saying that while correct, the two specific studies use different methodology and should not be used together in a sentence.
Ah yes, that was stupid of me. Although it can be used pretty much the same. "A c/o B" is in practice not much different from "B z.Hd. A", although it's legally different (when it comes to who is authorized to accept the mail if a signature is needed etc.).

I haven't actually seen "p. Adr." ever in my life.
Something like this to obviously distinguish environments is good practice - at one company we implemented scripts for terminal color-coding like this after some downtime caused by a destructive backup restore accidentally being run in the production environment instead of an acceptance testing system, which was in all aspects identical to the production system.

And I've seen a solution for more secure environments where physical separation was used with the operator having separate monitors/keyboards, and the "important" system having a different color keyboard and monitor frame.
No, it's not your place to discuss that with your manager.

> Creating animations is hard! This is one reason why many developers do not attempt it. You need to have a "design eye" or you need to study animation. People go to school for years to learn about animation and spend years refining their craft.

This! On a project I was working on recently, animations cost around $10k per object. If we wanted to invest in a full experience it easily grew to a several million dollar effort. Although it's high fidelity, the reality is, unlike film or tv, software is ever changing. Styles change and fads come and go. Ultimately the cost is never justified.
>Sure, I agree, but isn't that seen as a good thing in the capitalist perspective? Wouldn't you want to have that accumulation of wealth by the few, who can then wield that power, as a proponent of capitalism?

No. Capitalism works when people are equals, which is why we need a strong Democracy and brakes on unchecked money-earning optimisation. We must maximise people's freedom to create.

Personally the form of copyright I would support would be something like

1. Sharing without direct monetary gain is allowed. The reason I don't see a problem with this is because we already have a vibrant piracy culture and yet people want to pay creators. As long as you're not getting paid for warez it doesn't seem like it would be a problem in itself. Ad-supported torrent index sites would also be OK because they're not profiting off the warez themselves, they're just providing a search index. This is basically updating libraries to the 21st century.

2. As a creator you own an exclusive right to your creations and you cannot give that right away. So if you write a song as a "work for hire", you can still sample the song you wrote. You can change it and release it on your own. If you are a programmer, you cannot have your code taken away. If you write e.g. a UI component and then decide you want to make your own site, you can still use that UI component freely. Of course you can give a permanent non-exclusive license to your employer to do whatever they want with your code/song/dance/performance/etc.

This will maximise the freedom to create, minimise exploitation of artists and knowledge workers, and maximise the freedom to share culture, while still affording creators enough protection to make sure others aren't unduly profiting from their creations.

I'm not sure about the length of copyright though. The easy thing would be to say it should be 10 years, with exponentially increasing renewal fees, but I'm not sure that's the best idea. Another option is compulsory licensing, where someone who profits from your work has to pay you a fee proportional to how much of his creation uses how much of your creation. That idea has some gnarly enforcement problems however, and I suspect big companies will just tread over little guys who can't litigate anyway.
Ahh, that makes sense I guess!
I do this, though not from Windows, just Mac and Linux. I use restic, which has B2 support smd handles all the encryption. it also does diffing for backups. There's a Windows build, so I assume it would work for you there as well.

You can view and download builds at https://github.com/restic/restic/releases/

I don't automate this though, I just use it for occasional backups. Not sure what the automation story around restic is.
Somewhat surprisingly, it seems they don't. Just look at the diplomatic cables Wikileaks obtained. I mean, ok, they were leaked and not decrypted, but people were assuming that texts which can be accessed by tens of thousands of people would not leak.
The rich will bail out state pensions when they go bankrupt, and effectively already do via implicitly backing state debts.

In the end, all social security is a wealth transfer from rich to poor. Even rich employees become much (money) poorer when they retire. That's not a criticism, just an observation.

Very cool. I've only just skimmed the article (and quickly), but I was wondering if instead of generating pictures one could apply this to generating a CA (or parameters for a CA) that does certain types of computations? This would allow us to evolve or find CAs that could perform certain types of multi-stage computations in a highly parallel fashion and could be readily implemented in FPGAs (for example).

Oh, sounds like I just found a fun project to work on.
Absolute nonsense to equate the idea of American Exceptionalism with Chinese nationalism. We don't get "admonished" or sent to work camps for being insufficiently or even anti-nationalistic. Our schools regularly even have curricula where American exceptionalism is questioned, unlike the Chinese model where the government is beyond questioning lest you risk a lowered social credit score and a trip to the gulag.

I swear people don't understand how good we have it in the West and how differently people think in China when they are subject to fervent brainwashing from birth. It is extremely difficult to even think to question the government when you have been explicitly and implicitly conditioned from birth to tow the line. Ask a Chinese national coworker about Coronavirus right now and how things are going there and watch them not even flinch when they tell you that everything's fine and under control - just know that if you do so you are putting them on the spot. They are so used to having their digital and in person communications monitored that they wouldn't risk even telling you the truth in person.

The story was handed to him by the Agency, or agents of. The only "research" seems to be calling the names in the story for fact checking, and wapo couldn't even determine if some of them were alive or dead.

You just made my day. Not kidding. Thank you.
Any particular reason they don't use Western Digital drives ?
This is a great series of books (he has essentially the same book for early DX9, DX9 with shaders, and DX12). Particularly if you want to learn DX12, going through the DX11 book first and then the DX12 book is great because you can really see where things are different.

I wish that there was an equivalent for learning OpenGL or Vulkan.
Convox does not manage the underlying Kubernetes cluster. If you're using EKS it's managed by AWS, GKE by GCP, AKS by Azure, etc. If you're using a self-hosted cluster, then it's up to you to manage it. The Convox platform runs as Kubernetes CRDS so it is cloud agnostic.
I've recorded the date and amount of every contribution to my retirement savings. From that I'm able to calculate my all-time APY, and inflation-adjusted APY.

I used Banktivity for personal finances. I make sure everything is categorized.

Finally, I have a spreadsheet that calculates our monthly expenses (which I get from Banktivity) and knows the amount of retirement savings.

From those - our all-time APY, our savings, and our expenses - I am able to project what happens to our savings if we retire today, or what date we can retire if we want to always keep our savings above zero. It has an accurate social security model that assumes the trust fund runs out and we get paid at 80% benefits.

It's been a great exercise. The numbers are different (and more conservative) than most articles and web calculators counsel. Keep saving, don't rely on good investment performance.
I believe parent refers to Chrome's ability to autodetect OpenSearch websites. It is my 1 reason why I keep going back to Chrome.

How this works: Chrome automatically detects when a website supports OpenSearch.

So for instance, if I have previously visited English Wikipedia, next time I start typing "en.w" Chrome will not suggest autocompletiong to en.wikipedia.org, but will also say: "Press TAB to search Wikipedia(en)".

This is much easier than creating custom search keywords. For instance, it also adds quick searching for e-commerce sites I frequent, even though I'd never add a custom search keyword for it.

If there's a Firefox extension that replicates this functionality (autodetection of OpenSearch and integrating with the URL bar) I'd uninstall Chrome today.

The other side of this is that if hard times ever come, there will be no true believers in the system around to hold things together until the situation improves.
I think the glib cynicism underplays just how bad of a cf this was. This isn't just the normal 'good enough for government work' sort of shenanigans that defense contractors engage in.
> The only thing is that it's used only on iOS systems.

It's also used on the macOS, which is kind of the point of this HN posting.

In the magnitude of using a given platform, learning the language is a small part; the APIs and tooling will be a larger effort. If you already know those things for the iOS, the jump to macOS will be less.
As a minor point related to "large arrays of numbers not to be a core language construct"

Python added the ellipsis notation, used in arr[..., 0], as a result of feedback from the Numeric project in the 1990s (Numeric is the precursor to NumPy).

So while the implementation of "large arrays of numbers" is not part of core Python, the syntax of one way to index large arrays of number is.

FWIW, I agree with others - there's no way that a matrix product using three loops will be as efficient as calling a matrix product routine. Efficient versions of the latter also consider memory access patterns and cache use. The example tiled version at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matrix_multiplication_algorith... uses 6 loops.
Try writing something like publically that about the Chinese government as a Chinese national.

Brexit means it is more costly for them to operate in the uk, and they’ve decided the UK market is not worth that extra cost. If that’s not about Brexit I don’t know what is.

This will be true of many regulated industries if regulations diverge, and most industries with a supply chain across Europe too, so expect to see a lot of factory closures in the coming years, along with missed opportunities for new investment (for example Brexit was a significant factor in Tesla avoiding the UK, and financial services like EU clearing will probably gradually move toward the centre of gravity too).

You are in denial about the financial impact Brexit will have.

I don't think of things as so fixed. I think anything that is "for X" can become "for Y" if it's used creatively enough, so we'll see :)
Yeah, that makes sense. When we started 5 years ago we were recovering from me going without a salary for a year after I tried and failed at starting a company. Then we got married, then we had a baby. We had a lot of rapid change that happened very quickly so quarterly made sense.

After we buy a house, we will probably do it a year or so, then move to bi-annual.
I would love to know what these unnecessary regulations are.
The mechanism through which wealth is redistributed among EU countries is the EU budget. The wealthier countries (Germany and several others) are net contributors to the EU budget, whereas the more economically challenged nations are net receivers of EU funds. However the EU budget is quite tiny in relation to the EU economy, so the redistribution of wealth among EU members that takes place in this way is modest.
Compared to Revolut, they're pretty expensive. Additionally, their app doesn't work without google services like Revolut does, so you're completely crippled. And finally, their app doesn't look as good, nor does it have a view of your expenses.

Legally, that's probably correct. And yet, it points out the absurdity of allowing melodies to be copyrighted in the first place. There just aren't that many of them, especially when one limits to the musically plausible set.
