This blog seems to be down.

Yeah I can't deal with the new keyboards myself. Especially the butterfly ones, but even the new redesigned ones are too thin for me. Edit: Lol, the page works again and the keyboard is the one thing he does like :) I can't imagine this but I did notice the new keyboards are highly polarising. Some people love them, some hate them (like me). I really love the keyboards on the thicker thinkpad laptops I use in work as well (I use many computers in work ;) )

In addition you now have to pay full price for upgrades as everything is soldered, and the platform is being dumbed down to the level of iPad Plus. I'm just not really interested anymore. I still use them for work (with external keyboard) but the attraction of a great strong POSIX compliant platform with a good user interface is long gone.
The More Baby Play, the Smarter Baby Become
Mail forwarding is slowly dying (probably)
I think it's normal, reasonable and beneficial. If I had a very strong grievance that lead me to protest, I'd be highly motivated to not let others detract from my message or tarnish it. Nut jobs and provocateurs make it harder for me to attain my goals and can in the worst delegitimise my cause entirely
I'd traveled to St Petersburg, Moscow and Tashkent last year precisely to satiate this fascination. Stayed in an Airbnb in central Moscow in an old soviet-style apartment (most of which are now luxury apartments with BMWs parked out front).

The biggest difference was their approach to public infrastructure. The metro stations in all three cities are absolutely gorgeous. The trains are old and creaky, but the stations look like palaces (which is exactly what they wanted to create - "palaces for the people").

It's not really static. It's actually induction of the transformer (probably to parts of its shielding) that can't be released to ground.

You can tell because it immediately disappears when you unplug it. Static electricity would take longer to build up. And generally will not build up in metal objects but rather in insulators.
If you are interested in a PIM (Processing in Memory) solution then you should take a loot at something like UPMEM instead of GPUs. It's expensive to manufacture and the processors can only access local memory (64MB of RAM) but in exchange you get 128 DPUs (CPU cores) per DIMM and each DIMM has an internal memory bandwidth of 128GB/s. With a really high end multisocket CPU system you might see 200GB/s for the entire system.
Any pointers on where to start disabling all the telemetry for someone that was recently forced back to Windows?
What I love about Spanish is how flexible the language is. You can mould it and adapt it to whatever you want and people would still understand you.
Submitted this because I send a lot of email (I run an email newsletter company) and have noticed a lot of people's forwarding setups are terrible and hitting deliverability due to our strict DMARC and SPF policies (and then they complain they didn't receive what they'd signed up for).

We quite frequently get SPF errors reported back where people have things like Outlook or Hotmail accounts set up to forward to their other addresses and then their server complains Outlook or Hotmail's servers aren't in our SPF record. It's a total mess.
Ask HN: What to do when patents exist broadly covering the idea you build
If you build a product that has patents that broadly circle around that idea, claims that are too wide that anything close can be caught by such claims (patent mines), will you
1. find a way to differentiate your idea and file a patent?
2. Just go release the product and if the product is successful and claims are made, then deal with it?

You can use cryogenics for the landers and depots that don't stay parked in lunar orbit for long, but any assets with long shelf life should use hypergolics.

And now my mission profile has two different landing modules, one using cryogenics, one using hypergolics. Oh well... We can always go hypergolic if the mass budget is not a big issue.
Ahahaha I know it sounds like that. But I realize what a massive task that would be. Am I volunteering? No. I appreciate your invite.. I'll email you if I change my mind.

I think a cool thing would be if the docs site was made in it. Self documenting.
I completely agree with the author in that my 2013 MBA is the best laptop I've ever used. It's not my daily driver so I should be able to get quite a few more years of life out of it. And I also agree that for the brief period when macOS had Continuity but wasn't intolerably bad in other areas, it really was a magical experience. That's the one thing I really miss from going all Linux.
The Last of Us Part II is the most accessible Naughty Dog game yet
I've done some testing and if you install minimal Gnome on Arch and minimal Gnome on Debian Testing/Sid (Gnome version on Stable is few versions behind) you pretty much get the same speed and memory usage. Much faster than Fedora and even Ubuntu.

To install minimal Gnome on Debian, use the netinst.iso, untick everything on the last step where it asks you to choose a DE, log in after installation is complete, do apt install gnome-core and reboot into a very minimal Gnome. I write this from that setup.
Honestly I was expecting the article to discuss tuning/temperament! Has anybody listened to Bach or Chopin's preludes played on a well tempered piano? To me it feels as if those pieces were written to take advantage of the different purities/impurities of certain intervals in each key.
Ah, maybe! I tried a 13" once and gave it to an employee after a few weeks as it was infuriatingly small. If the 13" has the same trackpad size as the 16", that would probably be a real impediment.
There is a problem on Linux with some software not being available or not being as well tested. Despite all the problems with Windows this means that sometimes having it is helpful.
With physical F-keys (correctly grouped in fours) it’s very easy to hit F5 for example, without looking.

(Yes, I use a Windows keyboard with my work Mac.)
Thanks for the mention - I should note that there's a rather large update coming soon, with even more of them. :)

There's also a bigger pile of system/bitmap fonts in raw binary format, included with my DOS-based font editor (https://int10h.org/blog/2019/05/fontraption-vga-text-mode-fo...). Perhaps more pertinent to this thread, since the format is natural for embedded systems/direct video chip usage.

Shodan Dojo – Learning Shodan through katas
I remember reading somewhere the astronauts noted Surveyor 3 looked sandblasted, presumably because of the LM's ejecta. That's why the ascent vehicle should probably not be the first thing to land and, perhaps, should be located not too close to the crew landing spot.
From my personal experience, best example is "You see an exception/error, search google, click the first stackoverflow link".

You can of course find the answer in your native language also, but it will be less likely it exists, it will be harder to find, and less "peer-reviewed".
Windows constantly spies on you, with no way to turn it off. This alone is a dealbreaker.
I disagree, I don't look at my keyboard at all, my head doesn't tilt down during the whole day for any reason other than I want it to.

Adding something that changes the ergonomics of that should be treated as being a high price, so the benefits should be huge.
Great writeup! I am still on Macbook Pro 2013, the best 13” laptop ever build by Apple. I refuse to upgrade. All new Macbooks have disappointed me. I hope the upcoming 14” Macbook Pro will be better and without the touchbar so I can finally upgrade.

My previous job gave me a 2019 MBP and it was always whirring away. It would have spells where nothing would be stable. IntelliJ (Ruby mine) would hang for a couple seconds every 20-30 seconds, zoom would crash repeatedly and say there was an error with the system audio and if it would start back up with out restarting the system everyone would sound like they were a robot. I installed boom audio (which is one step away from adware / malware these days) and it surprisingly got more stable.

I’m excited to try windows with WSL2 soon. I don’t see going back to a new Mac any time soon based on how easy PopOS / Ubuntu has been.
They are not allowed to be loaded however if I am not misinformed.
I had the same experience. Windows became noticeably faster without antivirus. Also other problems like not downloading large files disappeared too.

"Apple engineers, do you know who is the target audience for these machines?"

I believe Apple knows who is the target audience for those machines better than this man.

Pro means "Professional" and that includes Graphic and sound designers, web programmers and (specially if you spend a little time in Apple Store and just observe) entrepreneurs that need (or want and could pay for it) powerful portable machines.

Not being able to display "IBM VGA8" being a screen "drawback" is like calling a drawback of mother cars that you could not pick cherries like with old cars, too fast and too low roof.

Most people prefer antialiased fonts instead of blocky, so his drawback is a feature for most people.

This is a really solid, nuanced review that I felt was pretty fair given my experience with this latest crop of Macbooks.

I've posted in the past that I feel like Surface Book is a device that is not aimed at me. Sadly, I am starting to feel the same about Macbooks. The touchbar is an active hindrance to me and them replacing core macOS applications with Catalyst alternatives (like Apple Music replacing iTunes) makes the experience more frustrating and less useful.
I am a signal (telecommunications) officer.

First deployment (Dec 2003-Dec 2004, E6) I ran the operations floor during night shift in 335th Theater Signal Command, which put me in charge of up time and status for all voice and digital communications in Kuwait, Iraq, and Afghanistan.

Second (Jul 2009-Jul 2010, E6) I travel across Afghanistan performing information security audits of major and minor US Army bases. I was able to pick up my CISSP at the end of this.

Third (Dec 2012-Jan 2013, E7) I was NCOIC of Knowledge Management for 311th Sustainment Command in Afghanistan where I trained and coordinated with 24 staff sections to increase their information transparency and produce common/integrated products.

Fourth (Oct 2018-July 2019, CW2) I was chief of network operations for the 300th Sustainment Brigade in Kuwait.

Fifth, I will be there soon.
I attempted to but the driver support just wasn’t there for my laptop.

WSL2 works fine and it also means that when I want to game I have a wider selection of games to play.

The police officers with him, who were watching him kill someone and were keeping a lookout to allow him to kill someone in peace, have not been charged with anything. Additionally, it is not just this incident. There have been many, many incidents of unarmed, often non resisting black people being killed by police and few (if any) actual consequences to police for doing it equivalent to if a civilian did the same.

I disagree that your question is the only important one to answer on this topic. Among other things, the study authors are seemingly trying to answer the question if more racial diversity among police would reduce the amount of shootings:

> Because racial disparities in FOIS do not vary based on officer race, hiring more diverse officers may not reduce racial disparities in FOIS. This is not to say that increasing officer diversity is without merit, as increasing officer diversity may broaden understanding of diverse communities and increase trust in law enforcement. However, these data suggest that increasing racial diversity would not meaningfully reduce racial disparity in fatal shootings

There was an NYT article quite a few years ago examining the topic of racial disparity in police departments(https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2014/09/03/us/the-race-g...) which contained a short blurb with a similar conclusion:

> “Even if police officers of whatever race enforce the law in relatively the same way, there is a huge image problem with a department that is so out of sync with the racial composition of the local population,”

Here's another article from the washington post on it(https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/storyline/wp/2014/08/22/...):

> Some social scientists have taken a look at the racial disparities in the behavior of officers, but the topic is still being studied. And there is hardly any research at all on whether racial disparities exist between officers when they use force.
...
> From the studies that have been done, however, there’s no conclusive evidence to show that white and black police officers treat suspects differently — if anything, some of the studies show that black officers can be can be harder on black criminal suspects.

Is this an obvious conclusion? I don't think so. It only took a quick google search to find a site campaigning for police reform(https://www.joincampaignzero.org/representation) which contains a study with a different conclusion:

> Moreover, research shows police departments with more black officers are less likely to kill black people.

To me it seems like the topic is still under active research, even if there are already existing tentative conclusions - especially since the conclusions are counter-intuitive, it makes sense that the authors would want to provide more data to the subject.
I really lament how difficult this conversation has become. I really lament it because I'm in fear of saying anything more than that, for fear of friendly-fire-by-pitchfork. It's a really, really awkward situation.

I can't see a world, where out of all the violence, suddenly everyone is happy. All I can see is more conflict. What sucks the most is that I can barely ask for restraint without encountering someone desperate to label me as being on the wrong team.

Too true. Not to mention that many of the APIs Google introduce are prone to tracking and spam.
Corporate IT says no. :)

I don’t know what’s wrong with my work PC. Home PC also has Windows (because games) and is super fast (even with Defender, but without ATP).

Honestly, I'm not even sure that Antifa exists. I'd never heard anything about such a group being worthy of concern in America until the current president started trying to make white supremacists sound like regular folks. I view rhetoric about Antifa as propaganda from apologists for right-wing extremism. It's their way of saying "he started it!" Any time their culture war comes to blows.
I use both extensively but settled for windows + WSL2 for now. In the end it's the little things:

- (fractional) scaling actually works quite well.
- the shell works a big better. Feels like a good compromise between gnomes simplicity and KDEs over the top customisability to me. KDE has actually been the most stable out of the three though.
- (Nvidia) driver support. Using Manjaro I had to reinstall the Nvidia driver every couple of months because a kernel update broke things. Again, not huge but annoying.
- Working hardware video decoding in firefox. On Linux playing videos results in significantly higher CPU load, noise, slowed down browser, etc. Even on a fast machine.

With wsl2 I can now do all my development in that environment and don't need to live with windows slow file system, missing package manager, etc. The remote development features of VSCode with wsl (and other ssh hosts) are also simply amazing.
If you've never heard Bach performed on period instruments, you're in for a treat. Here's a performance of the third Brandenburg concerto by the Akademie für alte Musik Berlin.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mSHLlidrZh8

Compared to "normal" instruments, you'll hear something that's a lot lighter, less monumental, more fun, a bit faster especially in the third movement. I was lucky enough to see them live a few times, and it's really great to hear how much they listen to each other, how much work has gone into their performance, and how much fun they're having, with big smiles and happy looks.

One other quirk with the touchbar I've noticed is when the machine starts overheating, the touchbar feels noticeably hotter... sometimes to the point of becoming painful to touch.

They should probably rename it to the torturebar.

I love counter-intuitive facts. They are a helpful reminder that things are more complicated than I think they are, and I don't understand the world as well I think I do.

"Gravity has a very strong effect. So what happens when an ice sheet melts is sea level falls in the vicinity of the melting ice sheet. That is counterintuitive. The question is, how far from the ice sheet do you have to go before the effects of diminished gravity and uplifting crust are small enough that you start to raise sea level? That’s also counterintuitive. It’s 2,000 kilometers away from the ice sheet. "
> More specifically, we failed to live up to this with Keivan and AppGet. This was the last thing that we wanted.

Bullshit.

Hopefully Keivan not commenting means he’s going to get more than just credit in a README and whatever it is doesn’t get locked under an NDA.
Repressive systems are apparently good for humour; the jokes are excellent. My current favourite, on how important ministries wound up led by sclerotic ideologues with no clue:

Chief Rabbi of Moscow synagogue dies. In atheist soviet times, party functionary, not congregation, picks replacement.

Comrade Burns: Nu, who are candidates?
Comrade Smithers: Well sir, we have comrades Flanders, Szyslak, and Rabinovich.
Comrade Burns: Who is recommended?
Comrade Smithers: Is toss up, sir. Comrade Szyslak is impeccable Party member,
but knows nothing about religion. Dr. comrade Flanders
has degree in religion, but not recommended by Party.
Unfortunately, you have to decide.
Comrade Burns: But what about —checks notes— comrade Rabinovich?
Comrade Smithers: What? You can't appoint him, he's a jew!

From my experience, as long as you choose the "nonfree" ISO [1] to install Debian from, you should be fine. On the default "free" iso my Wi-Fi didn't work while on the nonfree ISO everything was fine out of the box. Debian these days also has the "live and nonfree" ISO so you can test everything out before installing.

> Tear gas and rubber bullets against, at the start, peaceful protesters. not okay tools.

Correct from your perspective.

I don't think it was used when the gathering was peaceful unless it was area denial. I think there's some or all of property damage, arson, looting, arming and throwing, before they use those tools.

Interested to see a video with context from the current unrest where that's not the case.

By hand to hand, I mean the stuff that happens when police and gatherers engage at close quarters.

There's lots of these scenes from the HK unrest. it basically is hand-to-hand combat with batons like I said.

The manager is an anti-pattern in software and so too in organizations. What is their role anyway? Naming things is hard perhaps scheduler would be a better classname or resolver?
