"that hasn't come up for me very often"

The fact that it can happen and does happen leads me to avoid Emacs' shell modes altogether. I just don't want my Emacs freezing on me ever. Considering how much I do in it, it freezing on me is an utter and complete disaster that I want to completely avoid even if it doesn't happen often.

"there's changes in Emacs 27 that should mostly solve it"

If you're talking about the solong mode integration, that's just a hack that kind of works for static buffers, but won't help in dynamic buffers like shell-mode.

To really and truly fix this issue, a core part of Emacs will have to be rewritten, and since that part is written in C and is pretty hairy, no one seems to want to deal with it. So it probably won't happen any time soon.

I'm just hoping Emacs' libvterm integration provides a good workaround, at least for using a shell from within Emacs. I'll have to give it a try one of these days.
> ”Cookie banners have taken the internet back 20 years.”

I agree. The EU cookie laws were well-meaning, but have had the unintended consequence of making the web more annoying, more difficult to use, and more fragmented.

The solution? Cookie consent should be a built-in feature of browsers and http, not something that is reimplemented in a slightly different way by every single website.

Your browser should pop up a standardised cookie consent request when you browse a new site, and enforce your selection as part of its security policy. If you choose to block all cookies (ie: private browsing mode) then the cookie consent request wouldn’t need to appear at all.
Furry art could be copied en masse if anyone had ever wanted to use them for trolls. It's no more difficult than, say, anime avatars. If Russian troll farms haven't been using furry avatars, that probably has more to do with the stigma against furries impeding their propaganda mission than about the difficulty of downloading images from e621.
> Bat coronaviruses that were close to SARS-COV-1 were indeed found in a cave in Yunnan, but that doesn't mean SARS-CoV-1 literally evolved right

Actually my understanding is that that is, in general, the scientific consensus on the matter (including from the scientist you quoted in your prior reply)

> or that it first spread to humans in the region - who then somehow carried it to Guangdong

Correct, this is unlikely. The leading theories are that an intermediate animal, like a civet for CoV-1 and perhaps pangolins for CoV-2 were the infection vector.

> Either way, it doesn't make a difference whether it is Yunnan, Guangxi or Guangdong,

Well yes, yes it does. Guangdong and Wuhan are similarly distant from Yunnan. If, as the consensus appears to be, the virus started out in Yunnan, traveling to Wuhan via an animal intermediary is no less likely than traveling to Guangdong via an animal intermediary.

> You wouldn't expect it to occur in Wuhan.

I made no such claim. I made the claim that the transmission vector for Cov-1 and cov-2 were similar. That they both started in Yunnan and travelled east hundreds of miles via some method, likely a combination of bat migration/movement, civet/pangolin migration/movement, and human movement of captured animals.

If you read the updated article, you'd find that she no longer believes the virus could have leaked from her lab, since

> its genetic sequence does not match any her lab had previously studied.[0]

Of course, she could be pressured into silence by the Chinese government.

Do you need a mobile app? Ultimately, your order is given to the chef on reciept paper in chronological order, completely analog like it's always been with cooking and restaurants. Even fast food restaurants just replace the reciept paper with a screen emulating reciept paper. You can replicate this functionality with some cheap device and an orders@yourrestaurant.com address.
Gitlab is a bit of a mess though:

a) Gitlab.com is ridiculously slow. Even the CEO admits they failed to invest in it.

b) You can't disable features you don't need so you end up with a sidebar full of Kubernetes and Security features for a Git project dedicated to documentation.

c) Staggering amount of open issues and merge requests so you feel discouraged from even raising anything since it just gets lost in the weeds.

d) On the main Git project screen there are 15 buttons. Including again ones for "Add Kubernetes cluster" or "Add License" which you can't remove or hide even though it's irrelevant for 99% of Git projects.

e) Feature set and billing are all over the place. It has great project/issue management but in order to get say roadmaps you need to have everyone in your team on the $99/month plan. Even though they aren't developers. So in some cases Gitlab ends up being much more expensive than Jira + Github.

I could keep going. But Gitlab is an example of a company that is moving too fast and needs much better product management. I would take Github's more deliberate approach any day.
I don’t think that’s necessarily true. Firstly, who has the ability, will, and time to go through such a list, and draw conclusions from it?

Also, a statistical analysis or distribution plot likely needs labels assigned to those works. That, too, likely would mean making subjective choices. Even a simple fiction/non-fiction distortion could be problematic in cases where a book is partly both, or where a work was thought to be fiction in van Gogh’s time, while it was later discovered to be autobiographical, or vice versa (for example, are Marco Polo’s works fiction? When does “based on a true story” become fiction?)

So, you would have to trust the author to make good choices for making those plots. Why not trust her to make a good choice for these 6, too?

Also, this is (kind of) an advertorial for a book. Its goal is to sell that book, not to be the end on van Gogh’s reading habits.
I'd think this is for a subset of employees who confused free cafeteria food with an entitlement to never pay for food during work hours.

Serious question: why is fanlessness the defining criterion for you? Is it the noise? Or the impression that having a fan is a sign of poor thermal design somehow?
Unrelated to the discussion at hand. Yes there is the possibility of asymptomatic transmission. The OP said no one should be shamed for this virus. I'm saying bullshit. If someone sneezes on you when they have the flu, yes, shame on them. If someone kisses their child when they have a herpetic sore, yes, shame on them.

Devs tend to have a penchant for the absurd. The details may change along with the zeitgeist, but the personality quirk itself seems to be ubiquitous across the decades.
But the goal isn't to be a famous author, it's to write quality books. It's a different mindset. Becoming a famous author is something that is out of your control. Instead of focusing on the outcome, which you can't control, you focus on the thing you can. Doing quality work for something you enjoy. Sure, selling the book and it doing incredibly well would be nice, but honestly there is too much luck involved. It's obviously something you would think about when you are writing, and like, but it shouldn't be why you write.

I don't write software side projects because I think they will turn out to be the next big thing or make me famous and rich, I do them because I get enjoyment out of writing code that solves a problem (usually my own).

I assume in part this is because the Rider test explorer is based on the one in Resharper.

Some stuff it does better is things like running 64 bit and 32 bit tests at the same time, supporting both nUnit 2 & 3 without having to disable/enable the plugin. Mind you I spent some time with code in release mode trying to work why I couldn't debug a test last week.

To be fair I hate what Resharper does for Visual Studio performance and a lot of the really useful refactoring in box these days so I no longer use it.

I prefer to stick with Visual Studio but I know lots of folks who are happy with Rider. It's good for all of us when there is competition in paid for developer tools.
Heavily depends on the application.

Many applications running on a Top 10 system of the Top 500 are required to show good single threaded performance and good weak and strong scalings up to a big part of the system.

Checking all these 3 check boxes is hard to do if your communication is not fully overlapped by computation. The smaller your problem, the better your single threaded performance (e.g. at some point your problem fits in L3), and the larger fraction of execution time that communication dominates.

Even the poorest applications on these systems use non-blocking MPI to overlap communication with computation nowadays.

Depends on the location. Walmart is everywhere. I live in a midsized city and the delay was only 8pm the next day when I placed an order at 6pm or so. A few weeks ago they’d just stopped it completely so it was nice to get groceries delivered.
An example with tetanus:

> Unlike many infectious diseases, recovery from naturally acquired tetanus _does not usually result in immunity to tetanus_. This is due to the extreme potency of the tetanospasmin toxin. Tetanospasmin will likely be lethal before it will provoke an immune response.

The heterochromia is probably not 'incidental'. Heterochromia, quite aside from lighting/shading differences in eye color, is present in many real images: Danbooru has a ton, and e621 has 11k images tagged 'heterochromia'. Just a common trope in illustrations.

Neither of those would be shamed for the virus, those would be shamed for being a jerk, exact same as not wearing a mask when you know you should.

Just like having Covid is nothing to be ashamed of, no one should be shamed for having cold sores.
You're absolutely right that it can be generalised to every industry, which is why I'm not a fan of single-payer systems or huge welfare states or making workers dependent on the state. This optimised free market + welfare state fantasy is technocratic napkin math.

Look at the reality in the US and in Germany right now during the crisis. Germany, which employs a model of corporate responsibility has seen only modest unemployment increases as companies take care of their workforce and collective bargaining ensures that companies are directed towards long term goals and fostering human capital.

The US is seeing great depression era unemployment and if you happen to have the wrong political party in charge who doesn't want to tax rich people and hand everyone welfare you're just screwed.

In the real world, this idea of efficient markets and generous governments is just a fantasy. There needs to be decentralisation and autonomy in the system and a distribution of responsibility at the local and regional level. If that means I pay 50 cents more for my burgers during regular times because nothing is optimised so be it. At least the whole thing doesn't come crashing down just because the government doesn't work.
It is more along the lines of 'you say you offer a service, but you clearly do not have capacity to run it since it is completely booked'. Similar story in Chicago suburbs too. Your real option is to do it yourself.
But is it what the market wants, though? If customers are paying, then I think the answer is obvious.

Quite sure. Here's the documentation.

https://code.visualstudio.com/docs/remote/remote-overview

It seems like it runs all the functionality on the remote end, and the vscode instance you're running on the machine in front of you is just the GUI. To install this, you need ssh access, and then it drops some binaries on the remote system and uses ssh to start them up -- so it looks to a layman trying to get this working that "it only needs ssh", but that's just for the install stage. These binaries only work with more recent releases of glibc.

You know what's interesting about some of the features listed on that page:

- Develop on the same operating system you deploy to or use larger or more specialized hardware.

- Sandbox your development environment to avoid impacting your local machine configuration.

- Make it easy for new contributors to get started and keep everyone on a consistent environment.

- Use tools or runtimes not available on your local OS or manage multiple versions of them.

- Access an existing development environment from multiple machines or locations.

We have all those already with the way our development environments are setup, but the reason people want to use vscode is for the editor, no one asks about the above things.
The Growth Mindset.

To briefly sum up the findings: Individuals who believe their talents can be developed (through hard work, good strategies, and input from others) have a growth mindset. They tend to achieve more than those with a more fixed mindset (those who believe their talents are innate gifts). This is because they worry less about looking smart and they put more energy into learning.

Along with this goes embracing "feeling dumb" and pushing through. I don't understand something because I don't understand it...yet.
The other project, GitGardener[1] is... not necessarily sketchy, but it's obviously designed to make your Github look "better" than it really is (not that the contribution chart matters for anything, but that seems like what the service is trying to convey).

> And then they get sued if they don't come into compliance. This is just elaborating extra steps.

If you don't come into compliance with data privacy laws after being helped to do so by the ICO, they yes, you deserve to end up in court.

> Right, and websites don't display content unless this supposedly unnecessary data collection is opted into.

That's literally not allowed under GDPR. You can't avoid the GDPR by doing soemthing that is in violation of the GDPR. It's like trying to avoid getting a speeding ticket by going faster.

> You insist that websites have to display content regardless. Reality demonstrates otherwise - this is a practice sites do all the time.

Yes, and they're not compliant with the GDPR. Not all sites will get the tap of the ICOs hammer though. Some are going to be too hard to enforce (non-EU only entities for instance) and some just won't get complaints.

> Again, cart's aren't actually necessary.

Nope, they are very much allowed.

> Thus, by adding cookies to implement a cart without consent you have violated user privacy for reasons unnecessary to provide your service.

Nope, totally incorrect.
If this was a browser thing and not mandated by law, sites would just intentionally make their sites break if your browser didn't accept cookies and then tell you that you have to accept the cookie to make the site work.
Absolutely. Waifu Labs https://waifulabs.com/ implements a grid-based choice system for evolving anime portraits, and Artbreeder https://artbreeder.com/ implements controls plus crossbreeding and other features for a variety of StyleGAN/BigGAN models. There's plenty of scripts and Colab notebooks as well for various kinds of editing or control if Artbreeder doesn't do it for you. (I think Runway may also do editing but I haven't used them in ages.)

GAN models do not need to be specifically architected to enable control, because you can reverse them to get the latents/seed and manipulate that to 'edit' images: https://www.gwern.net/Faces#reversing-stylegan-to-control-mo... So if someone wanted, they could use Arfa's model to edit images.
I've worked with so many folks who take things personally and then I don't know if they realize it but all sorts of possibilities are closed off to them because of their response.

My career started weirdly but at one point I wasn't put off by a grizzly old guy at my first 'real' job. He was a wealth of technical information and etc, but could be kinda rough around the edges. He wasn't mean by any means, just not friendly in an office of really friendly folks who took things personally too often IMO.

So many folks were sort of scared / avoided him. I made it my job to watch for what he liked folks bringing him and what he didn't, made notes... and in a year or so we got along great.

After a while people who had a lot more experience than me would bring things to me ... to take to grizzly guy.

Technically I wasn't nearly as skilled as most folks (maybe all), but I just didn't take technical things personally as they did and ended up being this gateway that management recognized was ultra useful / valuable. Anyone could have done it, but for social reasons people just didn't.
