I think one of the key advantages of a non-keyboard interaction is that you don't have to look at the pointing device to see what you're doing. Touch-bar precisely needs that, especially given that there is no tactile feedback. And it's the main reason why I think the Touch-bar destroys productivity.
Misleading, yes, but what I meant is lying outright. The workplace has much lower tolerance for it.

while we're at it, we must also note that environmental footprint of private residencies (HVAC, water supply, trash collection, construction process itself) is pretty bad as well; so it follows that house ownership ought to be restricted to people who actually need it - farmers, and maybe party elite. Everyone else should live in maximum efficiency block housing, necessarily mass-produced from unfinished concrete, and placed as tall and dense as possible, to minimize transport costs. It also follows that intercity travel should be restricted, for the same reasons.

Oh wait! Cities should be sub-terran! Can be built very deep and dense, outside temp is fixed so no heating cost, electricity can be produced by compact nuclear reactors, air/water fully recycled. Only essential/important people will be allowed to go outside, to not pollute the environment. Right?

ctrl + cmd + shift + 4 was what first came to mind. For the longest time I did cmd + shift + 3 and did the rest manually.

cmd + ctrl + o to open another tab in Finder in the same folder that's current open. In my opinion this should be the default for cmd + t, which opens a new tab but in your home folder.
After you press Ctrl + Cmd + Shift + 4 and start dragging a region, if you hold the space bar, you can move this region around the screen so you're not trapped with where you originally started dragging.
note that ctrl-F1 by default toggles keyboard access, which breaks (some of) the other ctrl-Fn bindings (which i just found out by testing this). you can disable this in keyboard shortcuts of course.
Not judging, but around me, it's usually rare to drink milk after the age of 8 (my kid stopped liking milk around that time, and most of their friends too).

We do eat a lot of yogourt and cheese. The province use to over-produce milk and there was so much advertising to consume it. Everyone kind of got fed up I guess.
I know a lot of very innovative and entrepreneurial Japanese people, both within and outside of big companies. Outside of big companies, Japan's risk-averse system makes it very difficult for them to pursue ambitious tech projects. They have to fight much harder to get financing and also to work with suppliers that are more used to dealing with corporate partners. So the ones that insist on starting a business often go into lower risk but still rewarding sectors.

Within companies, it really depends. As you point out, Nintendo is a good example of a company that is actually averse to not taking risks, and doesn't get humbled by failure. They insist on reinventing themselves and trying crazy things even when they'd probably do just fine sticking to something easy and proven. Their senior leadership drives that. They're far from the only company like that in Japan, but one of the few in tech.

Japan's big slow companies are good at the kind of innovation that takes decades of slow, continuous refinement and constant long-term funding rather than sudden pivots and breakthroughs. Metallurgy and materials science, chemistry, and precision engineering are fields where those big heirarchies have done well for themselves.
Fight Club is a great film!

But I can't believe how many people watch Fight Club and miss the real message: that Tyler Durden's philosophy is not one to live by, because it doesn't bring you any joy or fulfillment. Too many people watch the movie and see a tour de force of machismo and stick-it-to-the-man ideology, but the movie is really about the negatives of extreme, prolonged toxic masculinity. The Narrator conjures Tyler Durden out of a misplaced idea of what he's "missing" in life, and he suffers greatly for it. Durden is a false prophet, and shouldn't be idolized in the slightest. But tons of people watch the movie and come away wanting to start their own fight clubs, or otherwise emulate the masculine charisma of Durden without ever understanding what it was really all about.

Also ironic that the modern use of "snowflake" (at least in America) originated with Fight Club but has become completely divorced from its intended semantics.
You are so right on the SELinux comparison. Of course, in this case, there are way more developers that are required to write them.

Reiterating what was mentioned in the thread - the best way to avoid this wildcard situation and make it easier for developers is to use Policy Sentry[0]

Thought I’d mention this for those who read the title and the comments instead of clicking on the tools. This will solve most of your problems with writing IAM policies for machine roles.

Delhi air truly is horrific, especially in the winter. I spent the first half my life there, but literally could not breathe without having migraines when I returned.

Clean air truly is an underrated privilege.
IMO one of the reasons that make that movie such a masterpiece is that it can totally 'change' depending on the viewer's perspective.

Just an aside: Although common perception is that "weapons-grade" refers to the highest quality, in reality it refers to the lowest-possible quality that meets the bare minimum requirements!
An amusing anecdote: Someone told me that HyperScript simply ignores the word "the" when interpreting scripts. I wonder if that's true for the other little words like "of" and "in." Too bad I no longer have a Mac, to try it out.

I wrote some industrial control apps using HyperCard. Unfortunately, it was at a time when the Mac OS was going through a dark period, and just wasn't stable enough to use in a factory. We ended up with Visual Basic instead, but I continued to use HyperCard at home.

> At worst the product has a pretty comparable nutritional portfolio to cow milk

FTA:
"Of all the different kinds of sugars you can eat, maltose has the highest glycemic index, with a rating of 105 out of 100.

"Lactose, the sugar in cow’s milk, has a GI of 46."

It is incorrect to call 105 and 46 "comparable".

Sure, he is admirable that way. But the comment says not necessarily, which is not a throwaway. Personally, it seems to me that being good at teaching is at the least independent of being a good researcher, if not perhaps negatively correlated. That very much does not rule out extraordinary exceptions (ones that deserve a great deal of attention, for sure).

My dad took me to see '2001: A Space Odyssey' when I was about 10. He didn't understand it, I only thought I did, or I didn't care. It was beautiful, magical, it boosted my interest in space and in computers, and got me reading science fiction.

If you frame 'Groundhog Day' as a story of a self-centered man learning how not to be self-centered, I see one framing of my own life's story.

> There's no rule of law in China, only rule by law.

There's an epidemic of extrajudicial killings in the US right now. Indefinite detention without trial and torture have been normalized under three presidents, and one can't expect change there under Biden, so we're looking at a quarter century of these policies at a minimum.

The danger of whataboutism is that the US doesn't have a leg to stand on anymore.

The most recent execution of Canadians in China have been on drug charges. They had trials, it's crime and punishment by the books. Sure, it's politically motivated, but is it worse than a drug dealer getting shot dead while running away from a police officer?

And when we look at the history of criminalizing drug use and possession, who's responsible? China started cracking down because the British demand for opium was harmful to the Chinese people. The US started, and continues to wage, a "war on drugs" which was really a war on marginalized populations and an excuse to exercise imperial power in the middle east and south america. Rule by law, indeed.
Prior to this, I was relatively meh after hearing about the aggression towards civilians till I saw this "kids" movie. In India, they taught us the atom bombs were the biggest tragedy on humanity but I learned of something worse inflicted in next order of magnitude.

I am on Linux (Debian derivative) and this happens to me too often.

In order for copy/paste to work, applications have to share information and metadata.

On Windows/Win32 this is (was?) done by COM and related technologies.

On Linux it is D-Bus.

I think there are other interprocess mechanisms.

I suppose that if an application have different assumptions than another, about what a request through the interprocess bus does mean, copy/pasting does not work.
This is pretty impressive. I didn't expect we'd get another innovation in database architectures for a while.

Are you comparing that to a non-drinking night out that goes just as late?
I would suggest "The Big Short". It mainly focuses on the huge disaster of the 2008 financial bubble, and what led up to it.

Before watching the movie I had this feeling of how impossible it could have been for so many normal people to be screwed over so royally. The crisis obviously happened, but I lacked the understanding of how something like that could have happened. After the movie it was clear to me how systemic issues can be institutionalized if everyone is willing to look the other way.

Also, if you watch that movie and start hating everyone working with finance I recommend watching "Margin Call" and you'll only hate some people working in finance.

I read once that with a 100m telescope, we can image continents on exoplanets. We could construct a 100m segmented telescope in orbit, if only we had sufficient launches to get all the segments up, and sufficient capacity to send the assembly robots / astronauts. Today's tech, launch limited.

Here's a writeup: https://exoplanets.nasa.gov/internal_resources/1375/

In general, once you get to LEO, you're half way to anywhere ... That is, getting to low earth orbit is half the battle. Spacex will remove that battle for everyone, making space expansion and exploration 2x easier.

My dream is earth-orbiting shipyards for outer planet missions and interstellar missions. There's nothing stopping us but will.
What a lovely and strange essay. I never perceived the technological side as “grief” before, but it really is. People bonding over technologies and proceeding to make new technologies, all entwined. So many good connections brought out in here.

> When you read oral histories of technology, whether of successes or failures, you sense the yearning of people who want to get back into those rooms for a minute, back to solving the old problems. How should the mouse look? What will people want to do, when we give them these machines? How should a window open? Who wouldn’t want to go back 20 years—to drive again into the office, to sit before the whiteboard in a beanbag chair, in a place of warmth and clarity, and give it another try?

OK, wow, that was perceptive.

I'm sure those who want to complain will always find a reason. I'm sure that my purchases and 'hoarding' drove up demand which increases prices and pushes people into newer cars or makes used cars less affordable to the poor, meaning they stick with older less safe, less efficient vehicles, or something.

FWIW, my wife and I carpooled in the EV to and from work, every work day, until covid hit; now I work from home and she drives solo to the hospital.

But again, it probably doesn't matter. The EV is too heavy and the rare earth materials were mined in unfriendly ways, and the weight of the car means it sheds lots of tire material, and not all of our electricity comes from the solar panels on the roof, and we should live closer to work and walk everywhere anyway, and the alcohol I consume has a negative impact on the water supply in a drought state, and....

(don't let anyone find out that sometimes I drive to the racetrack just to go around in circles and end up back where I started!)
Schizopolis by Steven Soderbergh. Made after Sex, Lies and Videotape made him famous, it's a wonderfully playful meditation on all sort of things. I think the thing I most appreciate is the play with language, as in these clips with meta-language: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pct9smNM6u4 (The whole film isn't like this - just these excerpts).

Apparently it got such a frosty reception at Cannes after he was so lauded for SL&V that he added the amusing introduction that includes the lines "When I say this is the most important motion picture you will ever attend, my motivation is not financial gain, but a firm belief that the delicate fabric that holds all of us together will be ripped apart unless every man, woman and child in this country sees this film - and pays full ticket price, not some bargain matinée cut-rate deal. In the event that you find certain sequences or ideas confusing, please bear in mind that this is your fault, not ours. You will need to see the picture again and again until you understand everything.": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qU_na__nfSU

The article is pretty spartan in details regarding the vulnerability but as I understand it, the DSP is the attack vector.

Wouldn't it make sense for Qualcomm to hardware/software sandbox the memory content being processed by each part of the SoC?

Another thing for the OPs issue with the screenshots, (there's a few steps via terminal so maybe try the above shortcut to search for an article on how to do it) you can have all your screenshots redirect to a folder.

For example all of my screenshots end up in $HOME/screenshots

Also, another cool and sometimes useful shortcut, holding option while clicking is a big thing in osx. Try click the wifi icon in the top right corner whilst holding the option key. It will give you a bunch more details :)
