> I see a lot of doomsday predictions, but 4 months in, I’m barely seeing any signs of a protracted recession.

Perhaps the trillions of dollars of stimulus money that has been distributed has something to do with it? Or maybe the generous unemployment benefits the federal government has passed out over the past four months to ensure people could pay their bills and purchase things to stimulate the economy?

Without those things we'd be in a completely different scenario. Things may get worse yet, we're not exactly winning the fight against COVID-19 in the US.
If I am counting correctly, nixpkgs (NixOS) Hydra currently builds 22369 packages successfully on AArch64. IIRC also 98% of Debian unstable builds on AArch64.

So even though the rPi foundation may be slow (I don't know), the larger community has been working hard on making software build on AArch64.

> That is, the ability for your connections to keep going even if you hop between IP addresses. If you had IP mobility, then you could migrate connections between your two internets in real time, based on live quality feedback.

This bit is solved pretty well by https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multipath_TCP, but of course, both ends of a TCP connection have to support it.
Currently on Gnome+Wayland in a multi display setup that have different fractional scaling factors for each monitor. Usually 1:1:1.5 but I also tried 1:1.25:1.75 for the 1080p,1440p and 4K.

Gnome programs work perfectly. Qt looks good when wayland backend is force enabled but it causes crashes in certain situations so it's choice between slightly blurry text and occasional crash. Firefox works well, it used to require an environment variable not sure if it still does. Chrome support still not there, scale is correct but text is blurry.
Fully agreed, this year is 2020 guys at least provide QHD for laptops and PCs, and have mercy for your eyes.

Right. For clarification purposes, Hyperkit is a fork (I think) of xhyve. Both Hyperkit and xhyve use Hypervisor.framework.
I thought about that but I am no influencer type. The communication with Instacart makes me feel that they suspect I have stolen somebody’s credit card to make the purchase, and after they reopened my account I can see that person’s cell number and address and such, and I don’t know an easy way to go public without showing the proof, which is another person’s private information.

It's less about DPI than about raw pixel count. At 1080p, you simply lose too much usable screen space to menus, toolbars, task bars, and all the dumb shit that websites set "position: fixed" on. 2560x1440 (or better yet, 2560x1600) with appropriate magnification gives you a lot more flexibility in how you use screen space, instead of more or less forcing you to work with only one maximized/fullscreen window at a time.

I use a 13" MBP with no UI magnification, but most web pages scaled to around 200%. That keeps the UI nice and compact and leaves a lot of screen space for actual content (about 2170x1523 with my current browser layout). I do occasionally set it to a scaled resolution when someone else has to watch/use the machine as well.

I would be so much more supportive of the recent trades push if it wasnt riddled with misinformation.

Saw a guy I knew in school post a pic where there were two people. On the left was a person who was clearly supposed to represent some sort of business man, perhaps and executive. The image claimed this man made made $120k per years and had $100k in student debt. On the right was a linemen. The image claimed there made $130k a year with 0 debt.

The average salary for a lineman? Decent, but definitely nowhere near $130k. Both BLS and Glassdoor have it around $65k. There seems to be some myth going around that certain trades are an instant path ot size figures. Sure, after many many years of experience, in a specialized trade and/or in an expensive state with strong union protections you can maybe make six figures, but most trade apprenticeships I've seen dont pay much better than entry level office admin jobs I see.

Seroquel. It's often prescribed off-label for sleep. Very small doses are sufficient for sleep, so a lot of the side-effects listed online aren't applicable (we're talking like 25-50mg for sleep vs 300-900mg for anti-psychotic uses).

I'm not overly familiar with rust's documentation in particular but in my limited experience of teaching programming to a few unfortunate souls, the issue is usually figuring out what framing device to use.

The actual level of English in good documentation is usually fairly "low" - i.e. keep it simple, assume your reader wants to learn (Too many people suffer from I'll let you google that for me). That and a lot of non-native speakers probably speak better English than me (I know more words but I'm lazy)

I know how to program, I've been bitten by memory bugs - rust's design makes sense to me (i.e. the borrow checker is relatively intuitive because I've written and worked on compiler/s). That is difficult to convey in 10 minutes to someone who only knows how to plot a graph in python (for example).

My approach is usually to state all my assumptions as I go, while naming as much as I can as I go (e.g. googling for operators can be very difficult) when explaining things. In writing, I find that writing documentation away from the code can be quite fruitful otherwise the overall structure and meter of the code can be hard to divine.

I actually never used the Instacart app and I can care less. I do care about the Costco next day grocery delivery service, which has a transparent integration with Instacart. That is, I order on Costco.com and Instacart will deliver it next day. Costco won’t allow me to chose other vendors for delivery.

If you use Instacart app to order items from Costco the price is actually different. I guess using Costco.com I have my membership benefit.

The people who make the decisions about IPv6 adoption are not users, they are ISPs. You get an IPv4 address on your router WAN port because that is what your ISP gives to you.

From an ISP's point of view IPv6 is a lot of No Business Case. Those three words are the death knell for any proposal to do anything in any business that expects to be here next year. It has exactly nothing to do with the geeky I-could-have-designed-it-better arguments about the technology.

If you are an ISP that is a going concern, with a bunch of customers sitting on IPv4 addresses, then handing out IPv6 addresses makes no difference, except when it breaks something. You still have to give your customers just as many IPv4 addresses. So why bother?

If you plan to migrate your customers to IPv6 then you are a lunatic. Its going to break stuff. Lots of websites don't exist on IPv6, and customers are going to notice. Also your customers have spent the last 20 years slowly picking up bits of IPv4 lore, like the vital importance of 192.168.0.1, and are going to be puzzled when this doesn't work any more. All of this translates into higher support costs and more customer churn.

Also, your allocated block of IPv4 addresses is a valuable asset in its own right; not only does it have real financial value (around $20 per address at present), but it also acts as a barrier to entry for competitors; if you want to set up in business as an ISP you are going to have to acquire some IPv4 address blocks from somewhere, and they aren't making any more of them. Managers are trained to look for barriers to entry to their industry, and the current IPv4 situation is exactly that. No sane manager is going to do something to make it easier for new competitors.

Eventually, of course, the dam is going to break and IPv6 will become ubiquitous. ISPs will decide that buying blocks of IPv4 addresses costs more than providing new customers with IPv6 plus some kind of carrier-grade NAT for legacy IPv4 addresses. More website hosting companies will support IPv6 in response, and suddenly IPv4 will be so last-decade.

I spent my youth on 4chan. I saw everything that's mentioned in the article and worse.

Desensitization is certainly a thing. The first few times seeing those things were shocking and disturbing. Then it got exciting. Then it got boring. I don't actively look for that content, but never having left 4chan, I still sometimes stumble upon it and it causes no big reaction. I think I could totally do that content moderation job, I have to admit some morbid curiosity about what I would stumble upon exists in me. The only content that never stopped to disturb me was violence against animals.

Talking with my "normie" friends about this I realized I am the odd one out. I wonder just how much consuming that content in my youth changed me.
Ignoring the "just" (it is much more than just that), running one OS under another is scarcely a new thing.

In early 1977, Unix V6 was an app that run on Interdata OS/32 [1]. (Within a few months, it had gained the ability to run directly on the Interdata 7/32 hardware, without the need for the rather primitive OS/32 operating system to sit under it.)

AT&T's 1979-1980 port of Unix to IBM mainframes ran it on top of the TSS/370 operating system [2]. (TSS was IBM's original, and ultimately unsuccessful, attempt to deliver timesharing for S/360 mainframes – TSO under MVS, and VM/CMS, succeeded where TSS largely failed. But TSS hung on for a few more years, sustained by the handful of customers using it, and AT&T decided it was the best base for their mainframe Unix port, and IBM was wiling to support them in that.)

A range of 6 octaves is positively superhuman.

Since I've just looked this up: Tim Storms (
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tim_Storms), the current world record holder when it comes to vocal range, has one of 10 octaves (with the lower end extending into infrasound, i.e. being inaudible to the human ear)!

Very cool! Wonder how the copyright works on this sorta stuff. Since you fed your AI with actual images of other people art... but a art student would study other people’s art too. So not sure if AI would be seen as a copy or a derivative work. Seems like if you were designing a game and needed random art to fill frames on a wall could be cool to use these. But I feel like the legal part of doing that might be a little murky and unclear and probably even varies by country since still a very new technology.

DBM (Database Manager) is a concept of libraries to store an associative array on a permanent storage. In other words, DBM allows an application program to store key-value pairs in a file and reuse them later. Each of keys and values is a string or a sequence of bytes. The key of each record must be unique within the database and a value is associated to it. You can retrieve a stored record with its key very quickly. Thanks to simple structure of DBM, its performance can be extremely high.

Tkrzw is a C++ library implementing DBM with various algorithms. It features high degrees of performance, concurrency, scalability and durability. The following classes are provided.

HashDBM : File datatabase manager implementation based on hash table.

TreeDBM : File datatabase manager implementation based on B+ tree.

SkipDBM : File datatabase manager implementation based on skip list.

TinyDBM : On-memory datatabase manager implementation based on hash table.

BabyDBM : On-memory datatabase manager implementation based on B+ tree.

CacheDBM : On-memory datatabase manager implementation with LRU deletion.

Std(Hash|Tree)DBM : On-memory DBM implementations using std::unordered_map and std::map.

(Poly|Shard)DBM : Polymorphic and sharding datataba manager adapters.

(File|Mem)Index : Secondary index implementations.

Very nice work.

It's a good exercise to put complicated ideas into very simple language.

George Orwell had that job during World War II. The BBC used to broadcast news to the British Empire in India and Hong Kong, using Basic English. Orwell's job was to translate the news into Basic English. He later wrote that this is a political act. Converting news to Basic English means taking all the ambiguity out. If a political statement was ambiguous, removing the ambiguity means making a political decision. Someone has to decide what the statement really means.

That's where Newspeak, in "1984", came from.[1]

I think it summarizes a lot of office work. We're organized in processes which are efficient and/or necessary at the scale of the company, but which severely restrict and constrain us, making a lot of us unhappy.

For people for whom it's unbearable, there are two options: either join a small company or just check out completely, treat your job as some bullshit that brings you good money, be glad you're not cleaning toilets for 20% of your pay, and try to find fullfilment outside of work hours.
