One of the problems is that X is effectively being deprecated in favor of something that isn't X 2.0: it has different goals, different targets, different ideologies, and not to mention different architecture.

Eg Wayland is unashamedly Linux-centric (mind you, definitely not the same as Linux exclusive), while X most definitely isn't. One was designed to allow for remote rendering, one wasn't. One integrates the window manager functionality and one doesn't. The list of course goes on.

It's extraordinary to see an once open and welcoming governement to become xenophobic and ruleless. In the last 10 years, when things like this happen in other country, you would hear POTUS or media condemn this kind of action by referring to an once sacred word like "law" and "due process".

Just like the double standard on delaying the election, it's ok to delay election due to COVID in US, but it's perfectly fine to condemn other places for doing the same.

It would be very interesting to see how how ppl or historian view this 10 years later.

> IMO this is a fundamental problem with American ideals. Antisemitism is straight up illegal here, why should society permit assholes like this to run around and make money encouraging more people to be like them?

You must not be in America, then, since I assure you antisemitism is not illegal in America. When it crosses the line from thoughts or expressions and into acts rather is when it runs afoul of the law/society.

And the point of this case seems to me to be that if a company wants to provide a platform that is separate from toxicity, then it needs to be legally careful or it needs to be willing to pay up if it runs afoul of the law.
I don't think GPL software developers usually work for US software megacorps, and I haven't see people get up in arms about violations of non-copyleft licenses (how would you even violate those? Not crediting the original developer?). In fact, I've GPLed some of my own projects and pushback from people who seem to be associated with the Silicon Valley subculture is a pretty common occurrence (they typically want it to be relicensed under BSD or MIT or the like).
When I started learning web development I was told the possibly apocryphal story that Lego had one of the first websites, and they were of course tracking visitors, but they couldn't figure out why they didn't have any kids visiting from the U.S, as it turned out this was because at the end of every page they had the word "Slut" (the end) and American parents of course had bad language filters on their kids computers.

> 1995 was the year in which programmers stopped thinking about the quality of their programs.

-yawn-

Prove it.

The number of books and articles about the quality of software engineering published in the past 25 years certainly seems to prove we care a great deal about code quality. Probably more than we ever did prior to 1995 when Pascal, BASIC, FORTAN, COBOL, and self-modifying assembly code were being taught in colleges.

As for the point of the article, that hardware doesn't accelerate as fast as programs using it, same challenge: prove it.

This article is all handwaving and speculation with no data to support any of its claims.
Good! About time the US began protecting its citizens from big tech and aggressive foreign governments.

The central conceit being we are all doomed as software becomes more bloated and less efficient while processing power remains at it's current levels?

While Moore's law may be over in terms of number of transistors per chip, we are still seeing growth in the number of cores per CPU, not to mention faster memory and the death of spindle storage.

ImO software will start leaning more heavily towards parallelesim (if it hasn't already, building a threaded or asynchronous application is no longer an arcane dark art). Couple that with the surge in adoption of distributed architecture (yes microservices), and the emergence of languages which encourage pragmatism and efficiency (ala Go and Rust) and I think we'll be okay for the next while. Can't speak to electron though (gross).
this is a little too strong of a statement, but it's not entirely wrong, long term effect studies are starting to come out just now

I tried gtk-rs on Windows last year (2019). Everything about it was alien.

- The theme was Adwaita. https://github.com/B00merang-Project/Windows-10 claims to be a Windows 10 GTK theme, but doesn't feel like Win32 to me. Win32 is mostly gray (with some white elements), while this theme is white.

- The title bar buttons were "missing images" because vcpkg's GTK installation forgot to include images.

- Using ShareX to Ctrl+PrintScreen (region screenshot), then clicking on a GTK window, included the shadow around the window. The shadow was custom-drawn, not delegated to Windows.

- Dragging a GTK window to the side of the screen produced custom-drawn blue rectangles, not native Windows Aero Snap. Aero Snap was custom-drawn.
That should be on the person using a tiling window manager. The whole problem with development this side of the mobile revolution is the regression not to the mean but to the least common denominator and it's what made Windows 8 so horrible.

If a WM might exist that chooses to ignore the positioning call, that doesn't mean everyone should be robbed of that functionality.
This virus has nothing in common with the flu, except being a respiratory virus. I don't mean this in terms of survival rates, although it's transparently obvious that diminishing the danger is the purpose of this talking point.

But even ignoring that, there is just no reason why COVID should be compared with the flu and not, say, Hepatitis A (B or C), Ebola, HPV. Route of infection (here: respiratory) correlates welll with the effectiveness of various countermeasures. Symptoms are still somewhat similar but less so, with COVID causing rare symptoms like anosmia but relatively little fever and almost no rhinitis. It's completely useless for pharmaceutical treatments as well as for predicting severity, which for respiratory (and every other class) ranges from benign to certain death.

Sharing a Secret the Quantum Way
I think this is the real topic to discuss. I think China has been doing very poorly in the past years with all its top companies ultra-distracted by the greed of grabbing fast money from the e-commerce boom but paid no attention to basic infrastructure like chips, OS, CAD/CAE etc. It's all built on sand that can be removed at any moment.
I'm sure it happens, but I don't usually hear names with unfortunate meanings discussed in terms of offence or respect, but much more practical concerns: inability to get the culture to take the name seriously, inability to register a business, that sort of thing.

I'm not going to get strident at a Swedish company trying to launch a product called "slut", but at the same time I'm going to have trouble taking it seriously, and I'm probably not going to recommend it to anyone.

> So much of the college experience seems to be designed around a false scarcity be it pointlessly exclusive

Exclusivity is a hell of a drug. It's what gave in big part the large initial push to Facebook (being first available only to top universities in the US and then expanding).

It's also what luxury brands try to communicate (even though in reality they also try to be as massive and non-exclusive as possible, all the while staying very expensive).

Exclusivity drives FOMO.
I don't think the US has ever blocked at the IP level. ICE and DHS typically just seize naughty domains by taking over their DNS records (recent examples at http://coronaprevention.org and http://chinaseatbelt.com).

For entities with a US presence, the threat of prosecution usually does the trick (see

It's desirable to create a test with cultural bias. College has a culture. Remember, the test is about the ability to do well in college. Awareness of the cultural expectations will increase the chance of success in college.

If a student couldn't be bothered to learn about the culture, he isn't a good fit.

That said, the questions really are about reading. If you read lots of books, not counting the ones for little kids, you'll have no problem with the questions.

I cant find anything anymore but the story seems obvious enough. Content rating systems were tried. They didn't gain popularity. Eventually only adult filters and movie classification remained.

It isn't just journalists apparently, I think most people hate anything that smells like scrutiny. There are probably plenty under appreciated authors. They ironically have no way of knowing. I'm convinced there are and always have been fantastic ideas out there that didn't even get written down. Why even bother having them or fleshing them out if they cant be judged?

In my inner dialog I consider it the greatest puzzle of all times (and expand the scope to rating all human creations) if anyone ever truly solves it all previous revolutions will be reduced to simple events. The potential for recursive self improvement of such system is probably equal to a general AI but the results will be better.

haha, with the lack of published stories I just discover I sound to myself like I have a lot of explaining to do making such fancy claims. I will have to ponder writing it into a blog. For now a business plan that everyone is specifically uninterested in is not going to work.

But then again, that is like, just everyone's opinion? We have no means of judging the value of it.

No I am thinking of the situation where the open source driver doesn’t have opencl support and the AMD drivers (fglrx) doesn’t compile or requires dependencies so old that it was dropped by the packagers for Arch Linux, all this for a few years until they come out with something that actually works when I’ve never ever had an issue with Nvidia. Also AMD never ever figured out how to fix screen tearing, or do so in a sane that doesn’t involve trial and error editing xorg.conf.

Even on Windows AMD drivers are the most unstable, bugged software that’s even been shipped. It’s been a long standing joke that AMD “has no drivers”.
Yes, better engineers would have caught it before release, maybe. This is why I am saying that testing for loyalty makes no sense for smaller companies as a loyal engineer may not be any good. I can even speculate that the best engineers are unlikely to be very loyal e.g. I doubt Google makes its "stars" to jump through the hoops.
This mirrors my experience. I've been a mostly happy Ubuntu user since 5.04/Hoary, baring a few bumps like Unity and pulse audio becoming defaults before they were polished enough for general release.

But after upgrading to 20.04, and fighting with Snap slowdowns, and yet another change in desktop direction, the weird data sharing of searches with Amazon, and weird power management problems on hardware that had previously "Just Worked", I just had had enough. I switched to Mint a month ago, and haven't look back.

I love how Ubuntu has brought Linux into the (somewhat) mainstream, but I'm just over how much it keeps changing direction, and releasing things before they're ready.
Of course China is going to retaliate. That doesn't mean we shouldn't consider that ridiculous.
I'd say it's probably more a factor of the _requirements_ of the software getting harder. Pre 1995 most developers were writing apps running on a desktop that wasn't even multitasking. Post 1995 you have preemptive multitasking, TCP/IP / GUIs / multi platform / search indexes, etc. Most don't have the brain power to be experts in all those fields, hence you have to pick where you can excel in quality.

I don’t think it is about mattering or not mattering. It’s about what’s the ROI if I think about SEO for a couple of hours before publishing content. Very high I imagine.

You can still follow the strategy you mention, but make sure the SEO basics are right. If nothing else come up with a decent title and meta description so that the SERP result when seen gets clicks and sets up the right intent and user expectation. Then when Google does send you traffic and it will it pays off.

Regarding JET and ITER, according to what I heard from my coworkers, all the knowledge that was gained at JET is being used for ITER. I guess many of the productions facilities are being reused too, but I would need to ask them.

Regarding our project (IFMIF), we are building a linear accelerator to simulate the neutron flux inside a fusion reactor and study the behavior of different materials. The accelerator is composed of an injector, several acceleration stages, and a beam dump. First the injector and the beam dump were installed and tested, and then all the other stages are being installed and tested incrementally. But a linear accelerator is a very different machine from a tokamak.

I wonder why we need to supplement glucosamine (e.g. to treat arthritis) when it is synthesised by the body from glucose in one of our basic metabolic pathways. I could only imagine this becomes a problem unless a) the enzymes responsible stop working or b) if the glucose gets shunted off to some other purpose.

It’s also funny that chondroitin supplementation does the job too, because it actually contains no glucosamine, but contains monosaccharides that are derived from glucosamine (N-acetyl Galactosamine).

I think there’s probably a very interesting answer to these metabolic questions that could shed a lot of light onto the phenotypes of aging. That said, I don’t know what evidence is out there for systemic lack of e.g. glycosaminoglycans in aged populations, or even in arthritic cohorts.
> Apple had no reason to part ways with Nvidia for technical reasons (especially considering they went to AMD instead), but did so because of the terrible relationship they built.

I'm typing this on a MacBook with an Nvida GPU that was created in 2012, many years after the failing laptop GPU debacle. AFAIK, Apple used that GPU until 2015?

I'd wager that Apple has been using AMD for something as mundane as offering better pricing, rather than disagreement 12 years ago. (Again: despite all the lawsuits, Apple is still a major Samsung customer.)
You're right about a lot but I really want to argue against the idea "people don't care." They do care. They care when their phone dies after 2 years and they have to buy a new one because updates have rendered it unusable. They care when the phone/pc/laptop gets hot with only a few tabs open. Polls seem to show people generally care about climate change, and as little as PC's use in energy (relative to transportation and electricity generation for things like heating), they probably would care about this too. Users just don't understand things could be better, especially if they're younger and they don't remember windows 2000 or dos for example. On the other hand, every older person I know curses the newfangled things, even if there are some new connectivity capabilities of modern machines.

And the thing is that connectivity has little shit to do with the layers of abstraction to idk render a button on a screen. Even developers, as your anecdote shows, lack the creativity to imagine better things! Christ if that doesn't show something is wrong than what will?
