yea I think the reason its worth mentioning is that when you talk about a report that will claim that 30%+ of jobs could be done from home, then the question is how many of those jobs can be setup in a way where it can be measured in a way that doesn't switch from "butts in seats at the office" to "keep your webcam on all the time or you are fired".. certain jobs may have the right combination of "not very fun to do" and "hard to measure output".. so as a result the default state for people would be to likely trend toward lower productivity without somebody minding them. So the helpful metric to add to these 30+% of jobs that could be done from home would be how likely they can be done without a manager that either pushes people to perform in some way or requires assistance on a regular basis to more junior employees to keep their productivity and learning curve moving.

Would you suggest organisational video conference meetings of e.g. 25-100 people over Messenger...? There is a niche Zoom is occupying very well.
Please do not do this. This is not adding to the conversation.
Interesting, I haven't tried Jami. If I am understanding it correctly it seems to provide calling features, which Zoom and other typical video conferencing type applications don't.

I'll also through Jitsi out there as a very capable FLOSS alternative to Zoom. If you tried it a few years ago it's changed dramatically in the last while. It's now WebRTC based and runs in browser without any download. It's not quite end to end encryption because the stream needs to be decoded on the server before being re-encoded for the other clients, but since you can easily self host it on a cheap VM I find this acceptable.
I wonder if this was inspired by the person who compiled .NET for Windows 3.11?

"Please use email, text [...]" as an alternative with concern over privacy?
As a user, this is impossible to verify.
Apparently he does mind you asking, and so do a lot of other people, since nobody replied.

Your "positive attitude" is toxic, because you're still sealioning, a technique you learned from Gamergate and brought here, where it's inappropriate and unwelcome, and which you have been repeatedly been warned NOT to do, but in spite of which you relentlessly continue to do, and for which your posts have been repeatedly flagged and deeply downvoted and frequently even killed and hidden, and because of which your account is well on its way to being banned.

Give it a break. Stop posting generic content-free comment spam like that, which look like you copied and pasted them out of a table in the appendix of "Sealioning for Dummies", and bear absolutely no relationship to the topic being discussed, and have no positive impact of the conversation.

And remember it will be easy to recognize you, and we will be on the lookout for you (plus the management has countermeasures in place that will detect you instantly), if you create a new sock puppet account, and continue sealioning after you're banned.

https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Just_asking_questions#Sealioni...

Sealioning involves jumping into a conversation with endless polite, reasonable questions and demands for answers, usually of entry-level topics far below the actual conversation (e.g. "please prove sexism exists"). This tactic differs little from harassment; instead of discussion, the point is to derail discussion, receive criticism (for their ignorance) so as to look like a victim, or to make someone feel overwhelmed and quit talking. It is comparable to running a filibuster (or perhaps a filibustering technique) and preventing anything getting done. The nature of Twitter makes it particularly easy to sealion -- since everything is extremely compressed.

A particularly toxic thing about sealioning is that people who are genuine newbies asking serious questions are easy to mistake for sealions.

The term originally gained prominence for describing the Gamergate strategy of flooding people with a barrage of demands for proof that Gamergate was harassing people.
Teams has video conferencing? Wow never knew this and I use Teams often for $WORKPLACE. I find it a bloated mess with little things that don't work very well e.g. opening Word documents opens in a weird HTML editor which stuffs up the formatting of delicate documents. It's so bad I never share things via Teams and just email instead. So not sure if I'd want to try its video conferencing function if it can't get other basic stuff right?

This is a problem I have too. I don’t have a home office so I have to work from the couch hunched over my laptop. It hurts. I’ve been doing it for a month. I get tingles in my pinkie after a couple hours they last for the day (ulnar nerve compression I think)

I don’t know how to cope. I can’t take the time off and not work for another month, but I also don’t want to wear my body down and have pain all day every day. I hated working in my office because it’s open space and noisy but I’d love to go now that it’s deserted. I have two large displays there, a mouse, a keyboard.

The other explanation is that they're using an open-source emulator (or some derivative thereof) in their product, so the iNES header would be the expected format to convey the necessary information.
Consuming a lot of power could be a show stopper for organisations where lots of staff are on older equipment? Zoom works flawlessly even on older hardware.

There’s a good HN thread from earlier this year about that, but basically, you can disable iCloud Backup and enable Messages in the Cloud, so that all of the messages are still backed up and synced between your devices but the keys are not, so that Apple can not read them. Then you can back up to your Mac/PC instead.
Yes, I believe it was, but this peripheral and the software was (unless I read or interpreted incorrectly) designed for the original NES.

> If you have multiple keys in your agent, you _really_ should manually configure what key to present using `-i` or `IdentityFile`.

If you specify -i or IdentityFile, the agent isn't used at all. You will have to type the keyfile password even if the key is in the agent, therefore making the agent useless.

This "feature" has been a big annoyance for me, since I like to use different keys per machine.
Tuxer said "keys," not "your decryption keys." Apple distributes the public keys that each party encrypts their message with, and they route the encrypted messages through their servers. They can trivially eavesdrop on conversations by simply providing a key from a key pair they generate to a participant and reencrypting messages using the other parties' public keys after deciphering the messages.

I'm surprised so many people here don't have a desk/keyboard/mouse/multi monitor at home as well. I thought that was a pretty common setup.
I mean, you'd want to use a file format that would allow you to cross-test your emulator's behavior on the same ROM files against existing emulators' behavior on those ROM files. So you'd format your ROMs (which you dumped yourself) the way that existing emulators would expect them to be formatted.
You really think pressure to do something and motivation to do something are entirely unrelated?

Back when SNES was still current and flash memory chips were still relatively small and expensive, there were "copiers", which a few SNES enthusiasts still collect just like other vintage peripherals. These are larger devices that contain a floppy drive, DRAM, save RAM, and the necessary logic to provide the most common cartridge mappings. You would dump a cartridge to floppies and then load it into the DRAM to play it. Well-known models include the Game Doctor SF7 and Super Wild Card DX2.

Jitsi does not re-encode video streams on the server, it's a SFU (selective forwarding unit) and just forwards (some) video streams to the other participators.
When Simulcast is enabled, multiple resolutions of your video are streamed to the Jitsi server and it only sends those streams to clients which they asked for (participants can choose the quality of video they receive, in the UI)
My comment was not about giving credit. The point is that if you know that the system is GNU, you know what software it is supposed to run, and that does not mean that it can not be compatible if it is not GNU. We can probably also use POSIX (btw, the name for the standard was suggested by RMS [1]) as the lowest common denominator, but would that also include Android?

Yeah dot com bust was much worse. I mean the market was over-inflated with flash developers with 6 months experience making $100k and sysadmins fresh out of their MCSE cert course making 80k. I joined a travel startup as the CTO when the dotcom bust was looking like it was coming in 99. 9/11 knocked us down for a little while but we built it back up and exited in a sale to Hotels.con.

08 was much better for me, I had a steady job with Marriott and tech skills where very much in demand.

Dot com bust was a bad time to be out on the market the 08 crash was not.
Happy to. If you have inelastic demand for something, the cost will rise to consume all available dollars. Educational costs rise faster than inflation because the federal government hands out loans that you can’t default on. Healthcare costs rise because you have no alternative to health insurance premiums, copays, and deductibles except going without (to great peril). You need a degree to check a box for employment, you need healthcare to not die. The money your central bank prints is then consumed inefficiently.

Looking at other goods and services, there’s only so much food, energy, clothing, and so on you can consume. Additional dollars beyond a certain point provide diminishing marginal utility. Bill Gates doesn’t order tractor trailers worth of food; he requires roughly the same amount of calories as you do.

So! Due to the transition to a services based economy, the US economy slowly but surely moving away from oil needed for growth (over the last 15 years), global demand for dollars, and structural demographic changes (an older population consumes less of everything except healthcare), we can print fiat without issue with some cost controls around inelastic needs.

And then you’d just need PC and Android hardware to incorporate a pathway for that purpose, running an Apple-provided binary that they have no authority over, because no way would Apple concede that to e.g. Google.

You’re not belaboring the point at all. Nearly no one knows about that little corner aspect, and then goes through this full line of reasoning. I’m just glad for one more considering it.

Droplets through the air (that land on the second parties nose or mouth) is not what Hopkins is talking about. The virus is in respiratory droplets. If you sneeze on something its contaminated. If you touch your nose or mouth and touch something its contaminated. etc. If someone touches any of those surfaces (hard to avoid in a shared space with door handles etc) they risk infection.

In daily living you touch door handles, gas pump handles, elevator buttons, railings, subway hang straps and bars etc. Even before covid, how many people sneezed on you? Far fewer.

If we just were worried about folks sneezing on us we could stop washing our hands.
easy. Imagine twin brothers each with identical wealth and then one of them steals the other one's money. Now one has twice the wealth of the other.
In comparison to Zoom and Jitsi:

Jami’s major advantages are that it’s end-to-end encrypted and completely peer-to-peer, requiring no server in-between.

The major disadvantage is that it doesn’t support calls from the browser.

Everyone of us might be dead in the next 30-50 years, but the coming generation will bear the fiscal burden of this profligacy (either implicitly through inflation or through a currency devaluation).

If so much money is printed (& spent) and (real economic) inflation is not seen, the logical implication is:
a) The wealthy absorbed the domestic money in (real) asset price inflation (hence lower yields and higher wealth inequality).
b) The money was "exported" out of the country to purchase foreign goods and services (leaving an interest rate burden that will eventually suck the "real" tax budget dry).
ScriptCase 9.4.000 Crack
I'm actually working on a blog post on the state of streaming live from a browser! WebRTC is...a bit of a monster, especially if you want to broadcast one-to-many.

I've been hacking around with using the MediaRecorder API and piping that through WebSockets to a server that publishes via RTMP. It's definitely rough, and browsers de-prioritizing requestAnimationFrame callbacks when the tab isn't in focus kills things, but it's promising. It runs shockingly well on a Glitch instance for what that's worth.

You need a Mux (https://mux.com) stream key for the demo, but you could quickly edit it to use any RTMP URL: https://mmcc-next-streamr.glitch.me/

The level of perfection being sought in this article is essentially irrelevant to competition with emulators + illicit copying.

The existing emulators are more than good enough to be replacements to the commercial offerings (and in most cases, a lot better... e.g. the lookahead rendering).

While what you suggest might be a factor in their actions, I don't think it's an especially good one.

As far as rolling their own emulators, I don't doubt that they do. But I do doubt that they're doing so without researching the existing open source emulators.
Interesting, but only about half those people work, and even fewer full time.
Hacking Email Address
How do I hack an email address
it's not a binary question, it depends on who is asking. If someone is asking who has limited resources or time to invest and not access to a lot of engineers then the realm of what's commercially viable shrinks pretty quickly.

If you have someone who has the resources and time to experiment, then sure everything that is literally viable may be viable.

In general, it's probably somewhere in between. I wouldn't take one or two companies or even solely proprietary companies as a good example though. For the average person it probably matters most if a language has a rich and alive open ecosystem.
