Nope, chatting didn't help for me, it only added to the time wasting. I had the same AirPod Pro problem and started with chat Not only did they not solve it via chat (despite detailed troubleshooting notes I provided), they wasted a lot of time asking me to try things that clearly had nothing to do w/ the problem. After a long time of this, they said I'd have to call. Even with a case number, I basically started from scratch on the phone, took about 1hr. After all that, they did finally send me one replacement (right side only). It fixed the problem, though I will say that now they perpetually unbalanced in terms of ear pressure.
Atleast where I live I would just have the charge cancelled by my credit card provider. Risk of shipping in cases of warranty is on the seller/manufacturer, Apple shouldn't be abusing customers like this.
Nice to see a more normal tanker distribution now. Back when WTI crashed, they were all hugging the coasts if not outright parked.

Actually, I don't think that's the issue - at least in the UK. I've heard journalists openly talk about the fact that Twitter is absolutely essential for readership numbers on their articles, and that's not an estimate, they obviously have the raw data from their website.
The Conservative Party in Great Britain has been trying to make home ownership a reliable method of saving for the last century. They pretty much succeeded: house prices have been going up almost constantly since the war, and owning a house all but guarantees you'll be able to built generational wealth.

This came at high costs: once a large enough part of the population buys houses at inflated prices with the expectation of their price further increasing, the government needs to protect them from housing crashes and depreciation to inflate the bubble further and further.

Now that pretty much everyone has their money invested in the stock market, I see the same thing happening in the US. The Fed needs to keep the interest rate artificially low and guarantee policies to keep the stock market up so that people don't lose money, but also making sociery overall worse.
How Nespresso's coffee revolution got ground down
I've been wondering if using such exhaustive datasets would allow to discover the existing supply chain routes (which is usually a closed guarded trade secret). For that I would model the truck, ship and freight train traffic as edges, and mines/factories/companies as nodes in a graph. The weight of each edge is proportional to the number of containers that flow through it per unit of time. The question is, would it be possible to statistically infer the interdependence among nodes?

I started it and so far I got nice visualizations of air and maritime traffic. I should resume it when I find some time.
It would be more like having your arms and legs (by body weight) hanging in sheets (so the entire length), rather than rings at the end of them.

> I do it with a chroot bash script for Ubuntu server atm, but hopefully there's a debootstrap kind of thing on redhat that I can use as a base.

There are ways to do chroot installs on RHEL but sadly not well documented.

Some resources on this:

Most of that will work for RHEL with some minor modifications.

"and feature-ful in some rights since they've had rootless containers longer"

Does LXD actually allow you to run and manage containers as a normal user like podman does? All the official instructions involve adding one's user account to the "lxd" group, which is equivalent to granting oneself root privileges without a password. [1]

A few of the other comments have covered good reasons why this is a poor analogy. One thing to remember: wing muscles are the most well-developed muscles on birds, while human arms are extremely weak compared to our legs.

A better analogy would be that flapping-wing flight is to soaring how running is to standing (maybe on a moving platform to account for turbulence, etc.).
It's in TFA: "the Pixel 4 also controls the motors and other electronic components via USB-C".

There's an STM32 micro-controller which presumably acts as an USB slave and controls the servos.
mægester comes from latin magister, which in fact did include aspects of slavery - in the sense that a magister is in control of X, whether it be a domain of a science, particular skillset, or people.

The corresponding word for slaves was in turn explicit about "someone who can't refuse order".

I think we all know that this is true, that online courses have subpar experience compared to physically being in the classrooms especially with younger kids. The question is, how can we make an online classroom experience be as good as it can get and also scales up?
Since we're doing Tales Of Stupidity, I knew a guy who was reasonably highly placed in the UK side of a non-trivial multinational. At home he set up a kodi(?) box to play stuff he torrented. At least he did it at home. If he'd been caught he'd have lost his job and possibly got a black mark on his record that would have prevented him getting another managerial job. I don't think he considered the consequences, he just wanted stuff so he torrented. He could have paid for it, but he didn't.

In another place I worked for I had a guy from a very rich shipping family ask me about torrenting stuff illegally (soz M8, not helping ya there). This guy could have afforded to buy the media remotely, say in the US (we were in the uk), and have each disk individually couriered to him cushioned between the warm thighs of high-class call girls. He had the money but he preferred to... be stupid I suppose.
Yup. I discovered LXC container with proxmox, now i have many of them running in my network.
I suspect the cost of the (presumably) Lithium-Ion battery is a significant chunk of change. Also, economies of scale in this form factor.

Linux distributions ship artifacts from building open source projects, often they’re even built in a deterministic way so that third parties can verify that they haven’t been tampered with.

Closed binaries tend to come from corporations and are often full of nasty things, wether the hash verifies or not isn’t the problem.
Transmitting implies transmitting and receiving which implies an exchange of messages.
The important part is that broadcasting is not exchanging messages.

In that sense docker is also "rootless". Won't be surprising if Canonical does not understand the words they use.

EDIT: actually I find no claims that LXD/LXC supports rootless containers, I think the person claiming it does just don't understand it, would like to see a citation for it.
> The research group also includes Dr. David Jennings, a neurologist, and Dr. Amy Janda, a small animal intern, as well as two veterinary students. Janda said the sound at 60 decibels is comparable to half the noise of a jet engine.

Both articles mention the 38 million number, I suspect that is the number of people ordered to evacuate their home while the number who have actually evacuated the area is the three million number.
That's an interesting take, but it's not borne out from the people I've met. Often they do have gaps in knowledge, but reading and writing definitely aren't the problem. Most of the unschooled people I've met have had a broad knowledge base with gaps in specific areas (admittedly, most commonly math or science).

But they've all been able to learn when faced with a problem. Most learning up to high school is pretty decidedly useless. Most high school subjects, like math, are taught very inefficiently and a student can catch up.

Beyond that, community college transfers to prestigious universities are common. The most important piece is the ability to learn and understanding that not knowing specific subjects will be limiting in the long run.
Lots of negativity here, and perhaps a little bit of cynicism.

Kubernetes, and in a broader sense Docker, has a number of paradigms which in my opinion won't make it to super-broad adoption.

Docker has multistage builds, but are very impractical to integrate with todays mainstream CI pipelines. Most just suppose you want to clone the repo in their pipeline container and build the target images there. Lots of those power tools (eg. Feed integration...) do not cater for multistage builds.

Kubernetes:

Sidecars do seem useful, but then again not everything that can be separated should be (or is easy to do). My client really went overboard with React HOCs and basically some apps are just 1 long vertical LoC full of "with..." beyond count.

> If everyone would follow this rule, the crazies would be left alone shouting into the emptiness.

On the other hand, unless that's society consensus, you'll just have the crazies screaming, the media picking it up and amplifying it and the politicians acting on it.

Unless we vote on everything in person (or commit to not changing policy), not publicly disagreeing with something is a problem.

I've had this happen (accidentally, there wasn't any malicious intent, I believe) in a community I'm part of. Some people felt that a certain policy was unfair, so they petitioned for its removal. I (and apparently most others) hadn't bothered paying attention to the "Feature Request" forum for policies, so nobody spoke up to point out the side effects of the intended change. The change went through, we suffered the fallout. The side effects weren't "omg the community is broken now" large, otherwise the change would surely have been reverted, but they were significant enough that you could measure it.

That's my main issue with the whole public debate thing. You can either tune out and fatalistically accept whatever happens, or you can tune in and try to stop what you consider to be detrimental. There's no "hey, this works, let's just keep it working, and not spend so much energy on how it could be changed" position. I usually choose fatalism these days because my energy is limited, but of course that means that those who choose to invest their energy into politics instead of contribution are in charge, and I'm not so sure they're the people we want to be in charge.
I think this section justifies the implicated recency:
"The corresponding research paper [...] will be presented at the 20th Privacy Enhancing Technologies Symposium (PETS 2020) on 14-18 July 2020 in Montreal, Canada."
Maybe we can just accept that physical presence is different from virtual one and that it is impossible to make the latter "as good as" the former.

Just saying. I am tired of my Uni (at which I work) trying to convince us that the students are as happy with online courses as with live ones.

I have no idea about birds, but I read that horses and other animals can sort-of lock their feet in place and require minimal effort to stay in place -- perhaps birds have such mechanisms as well and it takes very little effort to just glide -- otherwise, they would not do it.

Something the Stretch bot gets right is that it doesn't trigger uncanny valley revulsion like the torso-shaped PR2 does with its Terminator eyes.

Does “scaling up” have to be part of it? Maybe teaching is better done with small groups, and being online doesn’t change that. Could the time-shifting and decentralisation of online learning reduce class sizes instead of increasing them?

Started a couple of weeks on my pair. Called up Apple. The support representative didn't ask me a lot of questions and said I'd get a replacement Airpods for free.

Then I got quoted for a £75 deposit held until sent back the broken one back and no clarity from the representative on when the deposit would be repaid. So I just issued a replacement request with Amazon instead.
Thanks for this one. It’s interesting to see some content from pre-iPhone days.

One place this is abundantly clear is in the humanitarian sector, which I peeked into for a couple of years for a project.

For all the talk about participatory processes, the entire system is donor-focused. Its an army of well meaning folks from the Global North that are executing on an view set by donors.

There is grumbling about lack of "local capacity" but somehow disregard that expat staff move countries every few years and yet somehow have a strong grasp of local conditions.

Are there many people who think 1% fatality rate is no big deal? I haven't seen many. But of course the illiterate would not be commenting much online.

Yes, you don’t exactly need to know what queries will look like, but I don’t think the GP claimed that.

You need to have a fairly detailed knowledge, though. How are you going to make educated trade-offs if you don’t know what kind of queries will be made, how often, and how important it is they run fast?

That’s why, in evolving programs, the database evolves, too, even if the table content stays 100% the same. Moving some tables to faster storage, splitting them horizontally or vertically, adding or removing indices, compressing or no longer compressing fields, updating statistics more frequently, etc.

> What features of LXD enable fault tolerance and high availability?

Check more details on https://linuxcontainers.org/lxd/docs/master/clustering.html

> What’s the basis of claim

Kubernetes started with docker and docker image formats. Docker started its life by using LXC. Later on Docker moved to directly use underlying cgroups and namespaces to built it’s own library in the meantime LXC reacheD 1.0 version which support running a container as unprivileged user. For a very long time Docker container, runtime and kubernetes could not get this feature of running containers as unprivileged users. Later they added support when both docker and kubernetes including the managed services from amazon and google suffered from security vulnerability due it. This vulnerability did not impact LXD/LXC as they by default always run container as unprivileged user, it still affected the containers run as privileged by choice. Now a days LXD use new kernel feature called shiftfs (https://discuss.linuxcontainers.org/t/trying-out-shiftfs/515...) to map users between container and host.

Also Docker Containers did not support init process with pid 1 resulting in zombie processes (https://forums.docker.com/t/what-the-latest-with-the-zombie-...). LXD containers do not suffer from this problems from the very beginning.

As I mentioned in my earlier posts Docker became popular due to marketing and a lot of venture capital going into it, not because of superior architecture or better technology. LXD/LXC is still one of the best solution for system containers even though there are many docker related options with CRI, CRD, runc, containerd, moby, podman, kata etc.

Instead of taking my word for it try to setup a HA cluster using LXD and then setup kubernetes you will know what I mean. One of the good project out of LXD is called dqlite[1], chek it.
