> The key is that the proprietary Microsoft specific API added by this patch is only usable in a WSL environment

The other key, which everyone crying "Extend" seems so eager to ignore, is that they don't actually want anyone to use this API: https://lkml.org/lkml/2020/5/19/1139

"I'll explain below why we had to pipe DX12
all the way into the Linux guest, but this is not to introduce DX12
into the Linux world as competition. There is no intent for anyone in
the Linux world to start coding for the DX12 API."

They want people to continue to use OpenGL/Vulkan/OpenCL/etc., and this is just their mechanism for getting those APIs GPU access when running under WSL: https://www.collabora.com/news-and-blog/news-and-events/intr...

"We have recently announced work on mapping layers that will bring hardware acceleration for OpenCL and OpenGL on top of DX12. We will be using these layers to provide hardware accelerated OpenGL and OpenCL to WSL through the Mesa library."
There’s no soft way to say - “you’re not good. You need to get better.”

It is hurtful and painful to hear however put.
Just to be clear, America absolutely does support parents financially to an enormous degree. Hint: it’s not the middle class we’re supporting.
Presumably the “others” referenced in the definition need to actually exist for you to lack consideration for them.
It's true, a proper desktop editing application would probably be better in most cases, but I guess it would still be useful for the case where your computer can't run desktop applications (ex. chromebooks) or your administrator doesn't give you permission to install such applications.

I understand the feeling, but from my experience it fades away pretty quickly once you get the feeling of the language.

These days I'm working again with Rust to add a new feature to a project after not touching it for months, and that feeling of "oh dear god this is awful" that I felt when I was starting out with the language was back again.
However, once everything clicked in, with the compiler telling me exactly what was wrong with the code, and the project compiling which meant that I could be damn sure that the code I wrote would work with little to no risk of breaking in unexpected ways... that sure did spark joy.

Just my experience.
...we are screwed.
Yeah, you could consider going to something like x64dbg for this case, but really for finding data in memory, CheatEngine is king.
Haha yeah, so sorry. My OCD flares when I see that :why:
I don't know about the OP, but I live in Los Angeles so when looking for remote opportunities I need a salary comparable to local onsite jobs. I've got a daughter in school here and my wife has a job with 10 years seniority and a pension at 20 years so it isn't realistic to move to Idaho for the cost of living savings. I've been working remote for 5 years and it has limited my choices to companies that pay LA wages. I've talked to coworkers who live on 5 acres in Texas, a mansion in Iowa, or 20 acres in Arkansas and they think I'm crazy but I can be at the beach or Hollywood in 15 minutes and I don't have to deal with snow or rain.
Whatever happened to a control panel to turn off all of the things you Don't Want? All of these protocols should have triple toggle switches, Enabled, Ask, Disabled. If something on the page doesn't load because that protocol is disabled, it logs to the console so you can turn on what you need for that page.

I get that adding lots of user controls makes state management difficult, but there are tried and true ways to do this; users need the browser to work for them, not the other way around.

I think it’s just designed to match the English order for text. This way your text mode can go through memory linearly. Graphics mode can just reuse the same order.
I couldn't agree more with your feelings, it was beautiful at the time. I remember I spent hours visiting websites with JS snippets, to do simple things, the web felt so much amateur and collaborative. Seeing it now through the times, I think the difference was that to create an amateur website, you don't need to understand a lot of techs, just HTML and how to use a FTP software. Now everything seems much more complex.

Anyway, I just wanted to tell my experience with Image Maps. A friend of mine had a much better CPU, where his father also worked creating websites, and he had Macromedia Dreamweaver. He could create image maps with the cursor, clicking here and there, and it was amazing. Meanwhile, in my house, my CPU only allowed me to run stuff like Notepad++, which meant I had to memorize my friend's code, running back home, start typing it and trying to understand how it worked to modify it at my piacere. The best feeling in the world was when the click did what I expected in the area I wanted. What a feeling.
Why doesn't he use his writing to support himself? Is it really because he won't get paid until the future but he needs the money now, or is it that writing won't ever earn enough to support himself and his mother? If the latter, then it's not an under-utilized talent, it's a talent that's not worth his time to practice. Many people are good at painting or singing or other things that are fun for themselves but of very little value to others - less value than working in McDonalds. If they spent their time doing what they're good at, they'd actually be wasting their burger-flipping talents.
Will it now... cause I remember Automattic and GitHub doing this for years now
Question: if the virus completely dissapears in a few months, like other SARS variant, should we vaccinate the world population ?
A little off-topic, but this site is close to unusable.

On desktop, I had to set my browser zoom to 75% for it to be legible at all, at which point a new column on the left appeared. I thought I'd accidentally clicked on a link or something.

Then I tried scrolling with my trackpad and it wouldn't, finally figuring out because my cursor was over the left half of the screen, and only the box inside of the right half of the screen scrolls.

The overall visual look is cool, but the usability is terrible. Ironic that the first words on the home page are:

Americans use a lot of resources, but generate a huge amount of GDP, science, and culture.

For example the average American generates 15.7x as much CO2 as the average Pakistani, but generates 591x as much science.

Plus intelligence is highly heritable, and many positive traits are heavily influenced by parenting and upbringing, so successful people should have as many children as possible for the good of our civiliation. It is our duty.

The core issue is the extremely high cost of housing in many cities, as well as high taxes, which can mostly be blamed on Baby Boomers for not downsizing rapidly enough and for the burden they place on the rest of society with their pension and healthcare expenses.
Sounds like an easy fix (e.g. stop depletion at 35%).

And this could depend on the user as well. I live in the middle of the city, I really couldn't care less if my car ran out of miles in terms of an emergency situation, perhaps I'd configure it to 10%. My nearest supermarket is a 5 minute walk. There's 1 thousand neighbours, a hundred different stores, 3 police stations and a hospital within a 10 minute walk. Yes I can't drive to work but the power outage isn't likely to have a significant impact. There may be some edge case scenarios. Say I need to pick up kids from school on the other side of the city during a long-lasting power outage, no taxis, friends, teachers, public transport, bicycles etc available to help in these rare situations... but we're really not in the realm of everyday occurrences anymore at this point.

And we shouldn't exaggerate either. A Tesla has 100 kWh. Average household uses about 30kWh per day. And that's not an emergency situation where you ration energy (e.g. not doing a big chunk of laundry once a week). Lighting a room for 10 non-daylight hours a day is about 1 kWh. A full iPhone charge is something like 0.02 kWh? You can charge about 5000 iPhones on a single Tesla charge. Stuff like this, connectivity, refrigeration, lighting, are probably key in an emergency situation. Power outages are not likely a big deal.

Of course there are people who live in a rural area etc and need to be more self-sufficient. Very different story. But for 90% of tesla owners this probably will never be a big deal if capped at some minimum battery level.
This diagram may help:

Although it could really do with some more expository text!
What this article needs is someone numerate who can at least do an order-of-magnitude estimate of the costs and benefits. When operating at scale, what will the marginal cost in terms of battery wear-and-tear be for storing 1 kWh and returning it to the grid? And how much will that storage be worth in terms of the difference between daily high and daily low electricity prices?

Very frustrating that a putatively semi-technical publication like Electra doesn't even attempt this, or ask their interviewees estimates.
When I plug my car in, I expect it to charge. When I get in my car, I expect it to have a full charge. I don't want to have to push a special button or dig into hidden menus just to ensure that my car actually has a full charge.

This is critical for when I take a long road trip, and I expect that I have a full charge when I leave.

What I think makes sense is temporally stopping charging for the 10 seconds it takes for a generator to spin up. But these kind of events should be so infrequent that they have no noticeable impact to my ability to start a road trip with a full charge.
If you're in the EU, NPR is forced to ask you if you want to accept tracking cookies. If you say no, they redirect you to a text-only version. Which seems incredibly spiteful, but actually works out wonderfully in my opinion since you can just read the news without all that cruft you mention.

Serious question, how could it disappear? It seems like as long as there are people close enough to infect, it will infect them. There are cases in warm environments. What am I missing?
A couple separate issues but first and foremost I'm sorry you are being treated this way.

1. HNers (myself included) are argumentative and treat HN like a debate platform. I wouldn't assign any weight to comments here about issues such as this (or anything for that matter)

2. The people in your real world sound pretty terrible. I can't think of one person who would DARE tell me I'm being selfish for choosing to have kids or not. Maybe it's because I'm a man, or self-confident, or something else but I couldn't even imagine someone saying this to me without it turning into a very unpleasant argument, not to mention me cutting off contact.

Did I just luck out with family, peers and coworkers? Maybe.

How do you respond?
That would be an accessibility nightmare.
You can automate just fine in a console with PowerShell.
Other places maybe, but Singapore is one place where I think they do it out of conviction and aren’t doing it for some corrupt profit motive. They pay politicians (members of the cabinet) a good salary to make corruption less attractive.
First Thoughts about Deno
I went back through my eBay purchase history and they were actually 4890v2 at $160 each. So I was low on the price but also low on the model.

But you can buy e7-4880v2 right now for under $25 (keeping in mind that a couple years ago they were more valuable)- https://www.ebay.com/itm/Intel-Xeon-SR1GM-E7-4880-v2-2-5-GHz...
It's becoming really difficult to figure out whether an X-core i5 is better or worse (even for a specific purpose) than a Y-core i7 or any other combination of [model, clock_speed, num_cores].

Last time I bought a machine I cut this Gordian Knot by not giving a shit, which has to count as some kind of failure of branding.
Obviously not, but why would it do that? It's already spread in a way that none of the other SARS variants have, which invalidates that part of the analogy.
I like hobby lobby because it’s one of the few places I can get good craft supplies for my kids, I suppose that’s why I “shilled” for them here (your words).

Besides, I think the negative sentiment towards them is obviously politically driven, and not some genuine concern for artifact provenance and ownership.
Define "waited"
https://www.babycenter.com/0_age-and-fertility-getting-pregn...

"Every study you read or expert you consult will agree that 35 is a milestone for women when it comes to having children. In your early 30s, your chances of getting pregnant are only slightly lower than in your late 20s, and your risk of having a miscarriage or a baby with Down syndrome is only slightly higher. But at 35, that decline in fertility begins to accelerate."

Sure it might take more effort than say mid-twenties, fertility tracking/treatments, etc. But it can be done. And before 35 is certainly doable.

If there's one thing I'm grateful to my parents for it's my education. Life in the 21st century requires much higher complexity to achieve similar economic/social success to previous generations, and not just on the technological front. Those with the tools to solve complex problems will do fine, those who lack said tools are going to be bitterly disappointed across most aspects of life, unless we somehow bring back unskilled labor as a middle class profession.
if true, this would lead to some highly unreasonable situations. suppose you go to a fancy restaurant with your family and rack up a $1000 bill. if you pay in pennies, this would be over two tons in coins. does the restaurant really have to say "we do not accept pennies" upfront to not be obligated to accept your payment?
> std::sync::mpsc, anyone?!

Can anyone expand on this? I'm not well versed in Rust lore and have just used that module in a recent learning project.
Then fix the issue of what to do with the displaced (in a way that doesn't presume fault with said displaced persons).

Writing people off as this or that is not the answer.
Back when image maps were common on websites, it was also easy to find the coordinates in your image by placing your Paint Shop Pro crosshairs at the desired points in your image and then transposing those coordinates to the html. Using a relative number for the second point would have added a lot of work for complex image maps. Maybe that's just a coincidence because it was actually driven by the underlying array, but it was super helpful on the design side too.

PS - This brings back my memory of server side image maps which were fun for treasure hunt type images because you couldn't view the page source to figure out where the hotspots in the image were. Good times.
Lots of people do that. Or more commonly they pick up extra shifts/OT at their main job. People will still work if they have their essentials covered to buy a new car/go on vacation/ etc.
I've had the same IP address with Comcast for 5+ years. That includes moving to a different city and multiple different modems. Only thing that has stayed consistent is my router.
You're totally right but I was asking this question because I wanted to know if there are any other companies similar to Basecamp that pays you SF rates no matter where ever you're in the world.
Inflation is a market phenomena. Supply and demand. Printing money doesn't necessarily cause inflation if people don't spend it. If its sits in a bank account. And hyper-inflation needs an accelerator component such as payments tied to CPI or something along those lines which causes a feedback loop. We have never seen demand side inflation in this country (USA) ever.

But you are right about removing income taxes. Federal income taxes and corporate taxes should go away. A simple Federal real estate tax would be the easiest and fairest way to do it.
Remove the brain drain that filing a 1040 is. Put intuit out of business.
What I do is that I have scripts to manage the configuration file, rather than manually editing it. So you never open the configuration file in a terminal in order to see the private key.
>You show a lack of understanding of how food is made to think that is possible at current populations.

On the timescale of declining birth rates affecting this - this is probably the simplest problem to solve - we have multiple ways reduce environmental impacts on food production with different levels of innovation/change required - from engineering resilient crops and using the same approach as we do now, over vertical farming in controlled environments (still producing the same food but with low surface requirement and isolation from environmental effects), all the way to producing essential nutrients from simple organisms large scale (eg. algae) (here we need to figure out a lot more about nutrition to provide reasonable healthy substitutes over complex food) - this is a matter of economics, scaling, research - not trivial but clearly possible.

Building cities able to withstand large scale environmental disasters like hurricanes and tsunamis, temperature control, isolation from air pollutants (eg. radioactive waste in the air), imposing strict bounds on entering/leaving to prevent viruses/bacteria from spreading (through humans and animals) - these are the kinds of things we will need to be able to do in the future - otherwise the next COVID, avian flue, Fukushima or global warming is going to leave us in a shit situation without any way of responding - we will be left in the same shit situation we are now - forced to hide and hope it goes away.
If I remember correctly, not long ago someone posted here about a cheat using DMA to modify the display buffer of a shooter. I'm in a hurry but I'll look it up later.
Thanks!

I will try to make the explanations clearer, I'm still trying to improve my writing and this is very much appreciated, oh, and the code is Ruby.

I forgot to add the source code for the article, I just pushed it to a git repo and added a link to it at the article's footer.

Thanks again!
Could someone explain this viewpoint to me? It's a common one but I just don't understand where it's coming from. What am I depriving anyone by not having children? I could make the argument that having children is selfish but I don't really understand the opposite perspective well.
Is there any trend or metric we can monitor for sign of that? Like, average time required in ICU shortening, which may mean virus is weakening?
1. More technology pushes news into people than ever before.

2. Bad news sells and makes you keep watching.

3. Humanity has never been smarter or more advanced than right now. Therefore we are more likely to be right in our predictions. Even if this isn't true, it still scares people.

4. We're only just starting to track and measure problems. Even ones we can't feasibly fix (climate change), which is scary.
Any companies other than Basecamp? Since Basecamp rarely hires.
I feel like a skilled HR professional probably could have communicated the error of this decision before it was taken.
> OP seems like they run in some affluent circles

I have a weird situation with one foot in affluent California, and one foot in blue collar Iowa (Cedar Rapids). It's all over in my experience.

Also, I have definitely thought about all of those things you've listed in regards to life planning, and would say that they definitely influence me strongly on this.
As long as he does not force you to go along their life choices without a democratic decision, this is not fascism.
You run a network, and want to run a security audit. You need to know what devices are operating on it, and what services they are offering.

I don't get upset if someone opens and closes a socket to my VPS to see if something's there. My VPS is exposed to the internet. If a socket opens, it should be secure anyways. There's the chance nginx has an unknown zero day, but if I wanted to avoid that, I'd firewall it.

Things are a little less nice if you open a socket and start sending data to see what's there, assuming the server doesn't respond with a banner.

Winget – Windows Package Manager CLI
Granting access down seems ok to me. To make it really generic, you would need a way to query the upper domain if accessing a sibling is ok.

The process is different enough from cookies to warrant another large discussion about how to do it, with plenty of trial and errors. But the stakes are much lower, as in the worst case the user will get a dialog, instead of a site being broken.
Money quote:

>"As mentioned, 10th Gen Comet Lake is, by and large, the same CPU core design as 6th Gen Skylake from 2015. This is, for lack of a better explanation, Skylake++++ built on 14++. Aside from increasing the core count, the frequency, the memory support, some of the turbo responses, and enabling more voltage/frequency customization (more on the next page), there has been no significant increase in IPC from Intel all while AMD has gone from Excavator to Zen to Zen 2, with sizable IPC increases and efficiency improvements. With Intel late on 10nm, Comet Lake does feel like another hold-over until Intel can either get its 10nm process right for the desktop market or backport its newer architectures to 14nm; so Intel should be trying its best to avoid a sixth generation of the same core design after this."
If it did disappear, sure.

But it won't. Way too many infected all over the globe now, eradication is impossible without a vaccine. Either it will eventually infect the entire world, or we'll vaccinate against it. Those are the only two options at this point.

Even if an entire nation managed to eradicate it via distancing, it would only take a single carrier arriving by any means from another country to initiate a second wave and restart the clock.

Edit: I'm not one to engage in meta, but seriously, what the fuck is with the downvotes? Every word of what I said is casually verifiable with a quick google search and is not at all controversial. There is absolutely no way to eradicate SARS-CoV-2 without global immunity due to its exceptionally high R0 combined with the fact that it's already present all over the globe. The only two ways to achieve global immunity is if everyone gets infected and develops immunity, or everyone is vaccinated. Someone who's hitting downvote, please comment and explain.
Britain borrows at negative interest rate for first time
Also, for most of the vast middle-class and below, an inability to track your spending down to the dollar is itself a sign that your budget is broken. Most of us don't have so many transactions coming in and out that this should be difficult and it's a possible sign of dysfunction if you do.
We have? Can you show me a national law in the US that says restaurants have to serve gays?

See how the "it's a private business so they can discriminate!" works?

Keep in mind, as you mention, the shoe has been on the other foot and it will be again. It's better to enshrine and uphold these principals at all times. Not be like a dirty cop planting evidence because "he knows the suspect did it" and try to get to "Right" by cheating. In the end that blows up and it was wrong all along anyway.
You call Tesla's roadside assistance and they take your vehicle to the nearest supercharger. Depending on how dead the battery is there is a procedure to attach an emergency power source to the leads on the cap of the tow hook cover to let you get the car into neutral to get it on the truck.
