The mojo is always in the player, and buying more expensive instruments won't create it if it's not there.

I once turned up to a pub session and saw this hairy-looking person with a complete PoS no-name guitar. It had holes in the body and looked like it was held together with tape.

Even so. Surprisingly good sound. Sweet playing.

Complete opposite to the guitar nerds who turn up with gleaming prestige instruments they fumble around on.

I found out afterwards he'd been in a household name UK pop band in the late 60s.
I'm talking to support and I want to give that a chance to work.
If you actually read the code, it turns out that said compiler is not yet capable of generating LLVM IR let alone binaries.
A friend told me that OVH, the largest European cloud provider, doesn't seem to mind on its cheap Kimsufi servers.
Just because Apple makes things that are difficult to impossible to get repaired doesn't mean they are bad.

Apple doesn't aim at the low end of the market. Users can think of this as another part of the cost of the device.

I have a Thinkpad that is 6 years old. I have spilled things on it twice, and fixed it both times myself (both times completely drenched, once with latte, once with mineral water). I would like it to die but it just refuses to give up. If I was MBP user the problem would have been solved for me a long time ago and I would be happy owner of succession of laptops.
LXD is actually a cool technology. It's not like Docker/k8s in terms of each "node" usually running only one thing. It's more along the lines of a "VPS in a box", where you can launch virtual servers using a simple command line interface.

I use it to run all of the virtual server machines in my home LAN (mostly virtual desktops) with each machine exposed on the real LAN's DHCP server (so I can move them to a different box if needed), and to launch ephemeral "server boxes" to run some tests or builds or whatever on without polluting my dev environment (think virtualenv, but for anything).

I also used it as the base for my virtual system builder scripts ("container" VMs with LXD, "VM" VMs with libvirt since LXD didn't support VMs back then): https://github.com/kstenerud/virtual-builders
Access method is just part of the story. Same index may be accessed in different ways, you might also want to combine them. Sometimes you may change table join order to see how it estimates (or executes). Usually there are two parts 1) cost and reasoning for some estimation 2) how it executes (timings, resource usage, locks/contention)
- Set the table

- Gather & sort laundry, maybe even put in the washing machine

- Gather dishes and maybe put them in the washer

All chores easy for an able bodies human. But imagine having some disability or getting older. Getting back that autonomy in your life is definitely worth the money.
Heck, if I have to pick between playing with my newborn son or doing the above and the likes, I'd trade my car for a robot that can do this.
At least their servers are reasonably fast. I failed to mention in the article that this is also ridiculous: having to wait 30s to access your article, while clicking through three paywalls...
Sounds like a proper old WORM drive with integrated media changer - had seen one in telco I worked at, it's also referenced by Plan9 file server which used one as its main storage.
I specifically had children because they are like little robots.
I recommend reading the first chapter of Bjarne Stroustrup's book, "Programming Principles and Practice Using C++." It's a quick read but it's got the wisdom that your question seeks.
It seems to me that you could get pretty close to this design with traditional casting, forging, and then a pass with a multiple axis CNC machine. You’d get a little extra material down in some of those more complex curves, but how much really? And with a stronger part you could save material elsewhere.
Journalists like twitter because it allows them to “build a personal brand” i.e. they are less beholden to the publication/broadcaster which they are employed. It allows them a direct line to their audience to promote their work and news orgs see value in employing journalists with large follower counts. I’ve worked for a couple of large news orgs over the years and just by virtue of including them in my Twitter bio And being followed by journo friends my follower count increased to the high hundred/ low thousands— I barely tweet at all.

A side effect of all this is that journalists (and others with high follower counts) have a very distorted idea of how Twitter works and feels for most people and tend to ascribe more importance to it than perhaps it deserves. Thing is it’s kind of a self fulfilling prophecy.

I'm about double your age and don't either. And I would be surprised if someone double my age claimed to.

Live every day like it could be your last. Don't hold grudges, and tell people you love them.

That's the best we can do. And it is apparently what Grant did, as his colleagues all have fond memories of him.

RIP, Grant. You were cool.
You seriously think people would pay or buy less of Apple products if they provided better repair options?
The racist double standards of international development
Dishwasher drawers have already solved this problem, at 5–10% of the cost of one of these robots (that can’t yet solve the problem).
Once they’ve acknowledged a major fault, yeah. But until then it’s denial and nonsense and stupidity. My last Mac was a 2007 MBP - the one with the melty GPU. It’s actually still functional on the third board but the fuss and nonsense around getting the first two replaced when everyone knew there was a common fault (except Apple apparently) was pretty pathetic.
Apple's copy of LAPACK has not been keeping up with upstream and is missing some of the newer methods and bug fixes. Also while those are certainly the big two dependencies they are by far not the only ones.
And the bad thing about this is that their employees there do not receive a lot of training. So they are stuck with not a lot of knowledge about a process and are often the ones who have to endure the wrath of authors.
Correct. Also that was partially my point that there is no problem with socialization in free schools as kids attend with other kids doing the same.

OK, they did BSOD every Windows 10 machine I've tried them on after a few minutes. But when I only have them paired to my iPhone (and only my iPhone), they're perfect.

Shitty customer service is not lemons unless you mean an entire branch of company a lemon.
That article is so ridiculous and over the top I have a hard time even taking it seriously:

"People in working or impoverished economic classes are responsible for the life-threatening, exhaustive, violent work of removing their parts from the ground and assembling them. Meanwhile, people in the global upper class design and purchase AirPods."

I mean, yeah, I guess so?
I've lived in Europe, SE Asia, Australia, and very briefly America.

I used to own a car in the UK about 20 years ago. Since then, bicycle and public transport (and renting a car if I need one).

Europe (I now live in Berlin, but I've been most places in Europe) is obviously fine. There's 3 different rail systems, plus trams, plus buses. Plentiful bicycle lanes. Big wide pavements made for walking. And the city is so compact it's possible (even pleasant) to walk to the other side in a few hours.

Australia (Perth, one of their least pedestrian-friendly cities) was sometimes a pain. Do-able - I lived there for almost 10 years with no car, but it was unusual enough to be remarked on. There is public transport, and it's mostly excellent; on time, affordable, clean and safe. But the scale of the city makes transport tedious regardless of method (half the population of Berlin, about 10 times the size).

In SE Asia the "public" transport was non-existent, but you could get a tuk-tuk/red car/whatever to wherever for a few dollars (a 6-hour tuk-tuk ride in Sri Lanka cost us $20, getting anywhere in Phnom Penh was $2). And walking is usually fine - hot, sweaty, and fascinating. Transport is never a problem there.

In San Diego, there was nothing. No pavement. No bus service (and I was advised not to take whatever bus there was because it was dangerous). Walking to the local 7-11 half a mile away was a 20-minute adventure dealing with road systems that made no provision for pedestrians at all.

Obviously I haven't seen a bunch of the places you mention (they're on the list), but so far the USA (well, San Diego) is a completely different experience from the others. I would not want to live in San Diego without a car.
- Cameras. I think that's an Intel RealSense on top

- Lidar on the base. RPi-Lidar costs a few hundred dollars.

- Motors. A bunch of Dynamixels according to the docs, also a couple hundred dollars each

- Carbon fiber tubes. No idea what those cost.
This reminds me of when crimeflare launched their DNS service at 1.1.1.1 and 1.0.0.1 and many people couldn't reach it because those IP addresses were used internally by some CPEs.
Yeah, I was surprised by that statement too, but then again, I know nothing about how GCC is architected. I'm hoping somebody will come along and just fix it in a few days, but who knows.

People speaking truth to power are doing a difficult job that's worth defending.

These days most "news content" is speaking power to truth instead. No real effort to uncover truth is made, instead a "both sides" narrative is manufactured and awful people given platforms to lie.
Same here, also in the EU. But seems that the issue develops with time.

Wow - I really thought the first gp in this thread must be wrong, and then researched the UK and we are similar - around 20 to 25 percent. Blows my mind - it appears the levels haven't changed much since the 40s in the UK - which shocked me.

Trolling as a tactic won, because DFTT was never sufficient and banning was the only way. Once trolling was normalized by a presidential candidate, it was impossible to argue that he should just be ignored.
Or just set $PATH to a directory you control containing an "ls" binary. I don't understand what this post is on about at all - is it implying they've discovered a way to control environment variables of unrelated processes or users?
With CS conference papers, it's quite easy to see the date on the bottom-left of the first page. You see the copyright year, conference name, etc
Making hardware hasn't gotten any easier except at the edges where open source has taken a hold, but it seems like the only reason you'd want to design hardware anymore is to have more vertical control. Tesla, Apple, Google are all prime examples.

The margins on an OK product just aren't worth it, and to be competitive you have to build the whole thing and provide a reference design that's within 20% of the best out there to even break even. No surprise the market is all oligopolies. If there wasn't open source and affordable fab services coming up, there would really be no hope.

Why would you change "every cli Debian package" to setuid and not expect hundreds of exploits? Solution is not to do something so silly.
I'm almost at odds with myself on this. I think it's probably somewhat unethical to pirate stuff, but it's much more unethical to aggressively punish people that do... For the most part

The effect is so intangible for the large media funded projects as well, pirating your local struggling musicians might be another story, but is that really much worse than the current streaming model what you get paid a few thousand dollars for millions on streams?
Wait what? We were using the old flang project just fine. I thought they just moved it in tree and keept developing it.
CDC said "don't wear masks". CDC said they had no evidence they could use to recommend mask wearing.

You're claiming they did have the evidence, but they hid that because they were lying about the efficacy of masks.

If you're right it's really easy to prove: post a link to the evidence that masks work. Post a link to any meta-analysis or RCT that shows a benefit of mask wearing.

> Are you claiming there are lots of studies of mask wearing and the preponderance of evidence is that they don't help?

You're claiming that there are studies; that the studies show that masks help; and that the quality of the evidence is strong enough to make a recommendation that everyone should wear a mask.

Post a link to one of these studies.

(This, btw, is a common theme in these threads. Everyone says these studies exist, no-one ever posts a link to them. The only time someone did post a link i: the study was published June 2020 and ii: it didn't say what they thought it said).
True that, it is still usefull if you look for solutions in a field you are unfamiliar with. Doesn't replace doing your own research, so.
Your conclusion that your unschooling worked out for you more by chance than design got me thinking more generally. While we certainly have some amount of agency in directing our own course in life, many of the things that happen to us that push us into a better or worse situation happen completely by chance.

I was traditionally schooled, but, like you, believe strongly that my current success is largely attributable to the luck of my enjoying programming to an immense degree, and falling into it a few years out of college (where I studied hardware because at the time I wanted to design microprocessors, something I wasn't all that good at and ended up not enjoying). Obviously our stories make for a sample size of two, but that suggests to me that any particular method of schooling doesn't matter, as long as there's an environment in childhood and adolescence that facilitates learning.
New York Times Dickbar - Rant by Gruber
My significant other (23 at the time, otherwise perfectly healthy) felt a sudden headache one evening. Since it didn't stop, she was taken to the emergency room immediately, where they've dismissed her with "menstrual problems".

A day after that the pain didn't stop, she ended up in the hospital, and had a (fortunately successful) brain operation some days later. Luckily it was in an accessible place, so she ended up with no apparent long-term damage.

Definitely a terrible situation to be in. About 4% of people have it, and a small percentage of those only find out when it bursts.
I am running all my production servers with LXD. Letting my services and deamons doing it's job in a lx-container. If I do need to expose a service to the public I port-forward or reverse-proxy to the internal containers ips. This adds an additional layer of security. Emphasis on _additional_, hopefully not the only one. :)
This makes it more unlikely that a accidentally open database port without authorization makes it to the public.
Perhaps! It's one of the two candidates that might actually work in the near term. It didn't quite seem to work out of the box and given the newness of the project, we are a bit cautious, but there's some folks looking into it, to see if they can work through the issues.
Climate change: The ultimate challenge for economics
It’s more about keeping the machine clean. All systems “creep” and turn up a mess if you don’t maintain them well. So in this case of brew it brings a lot of stuff in that isn’t vendor supported. Which is backed up with time machine. If it ends up borked (which happened to me a couple of times) it’s a lot to unpick. Thus I prefer to avoid and use native tools to the platform.

All the native tools I need are available from the package manager on a Linux distribution which is far easier to reproduce therefore I prefer to do that there.

Also honestly I rather like the native BSD stuff. It’s very complete.

I was initially very thrilled about LXD (lexdee) when they made the initial announcement - because it specifically said [1]:

"We’re working with silicon companies to ensure hardware‐assisted security and isolation for these containers, just like virtual machines today. We’ll ensure that the kernel security cross‐section for individual containers can be tightened up for each specific workload. "

That was the thing that made it special, but later this capability stopped being mentioned and probably isn't planned anymore. In the meantime, one could look at Kata Containers or AWS firecracker.

It is not about my interpretation. Please search the web for unschooling (you can e.g. read the wikipedia article[0]) and you will very quickly learn what is meant by that & why there is no oxymoron.

There's thermals (a spot on the land that is warmer than the surroundings so the air rises there), and there's topography that causes rising air (for example when the wind blows at a face of a hill - the air has no choice but to go up).

RC gliders can stay in air basically forever flying back and forth in rising air along a hillside. It's called slope-soaring and it's great fun.
The base can be redesigned and replaced to be more capable, or more customized to the environment it works in. Attaching some Segway bits would work.

How do docker secrets solve the problem then? According to the article they store the secret in a file as well. You could access the docker secret just as easily as environment variables. The only meaningful difference is that /proc/self/environ will return all secrets at once meanwhile with docker secrets you have to know the file path.

See with the Mythbusters (sidekicks), I can't really see them as rich; I mean I'm sure they made some decent money off of it, but I doubt it set them up for life and I wouldn't be surprised if they got screwed over in that show in favor of Jamie / Adam. I never heard why they were let go / quit the show, although I've always suspected it was because the show just wasn't as popular anymore.
Being overly firm when they've already changed it now is a bit silly.
Actually, I imagine these robots connected to video game consoles so people with OCD from around the world can compete to see who can clean and organize real houses faster or more efficiently... Who needs a gig economy when you can gameify it!

> Why is nobody hating on CloudFlare for their free plan? On Heroku for their free dynos? On AWS for their numerous free tiers? The list is soooo long!

While I mostly agree with your statement, the answer to this question is quite simple: The free tiers are limited in resources and they have enterprise tiers that pay for the actual service and grant you all features. You know what you are getting upfront. If Skypack will - as you suggested - throttle plans in the future (or whatever they come up with) that's not the same product anymore you started with. You most likely need to adapt your own product to this changes, which is usually paired with costs on your side. You won't have that happening on CloudFlare, Heroku or AWS. Also there are exit strategies, contracts, SLAs and so on. Something like Skypack may go offline tomorrow and that's it.
Leaked specs confirm AMD Threadripper PRO
Whereas I have seen too-smart people creating bugs by cramming things into one line because the brevity required means you end up with hard-to-visually-parse clusters of brackets, braces, and whatever other punctuation your chosen language allows (is that a minus operator, is it negating a value, or is it a range in a regex?).

Bugs are correlated to line count because code complexity drives line count and bug count.

It’s not the number of lines of code causing the bugs, it’s the complexity of the problem causing the number of lines and number of bugs to grow independently of each other.

Correlation does not imply causation.
Huh this reminds me of the TacTip from the Bristol Robotics Lab. I'm guessing the sensor works in a pretty similar way.

Oh it seems there are some instructions on how to build one yourself:
