But if I had to guess, not paying > 10% tax on ~$100M contract is a good reason.
You wouldn't be offended, if you possessed the requisite context for your opinions.

Linux kernel commits are very detailed and high quality. The style can be a bit ad hoc, but the face of enforcement is Linus himself.

What you're looking at here is a throwaway piece of unnecessary text. Git offers the opportunity to include it, but it is generally left blank, because it adds no value. All of the interesting bits are included by incorporation.

In this case, Andrew Morton decided to have a bit of ironic fun with the throwaway text. Dismissals ensue!
I am wondering if kernel developers had more time to spend on the project because of all the recent virus lock-downs. That could account for the higher-than-usual number of files changed, and overall bulk.
> I have a MacBook, which don't come with ethernet for the last 4 years.

Exactly: All good laptops come with Ethernet ports.

It was sufficient to do most things, even streaming online radio. The biggest downsides were that latency was high and the annoying speaker buzz problem. 3G was a big step up. I never felt like LTE came as much of an upgrade over 3G, from there user point of view, so I question it being the defining technology for smartphones.
I am the author of Crush, I designed Crush for myself: a very happy Unix user for 23 years and someone who can honestly say I love Unix and the Unix philosophy. As such, I feel that I can say with some authority that your first statement is wrong.

The rest of your command is subjective, but I find that being able to see e.g. what user has used a lot of CPU and has many processes running via the command `ps | group ^user cpu={sum ^cpu} proc_count={count}` is both useful and far harder to do in a traditional shell. YMMV.
I agree with the general feeling of promoting home cooked food and having/learning the skill set for it.

However, specifically on the bread making aspect, we should probably do some back of the napkin estimations before supporting this more long term.

One good thing about a bakery is that it uses huge ovens, in which multiples trays of bread are baked, at the same time, with minimal dead space.

Contrast that with the scenario where we all decide to start baking our own bread, in a normal oven, raising it to very high temperatures, for a long period, to bake a single loaf every 1 or 2 days. This sort of makes me worry what would be the carbon impact of that consumer change?
As a general rule, the US is terrible at a lot of first-world things for a good reason: because it was the first (or close).

We have crappy old subways, airports, bridges, skyscrapers, and so on... because we built them early, versions 1.0. And they stuck around.

Other countries had the luxuries of building their versions decades later, when the technology was 2.0 and 3.0 and so on.

So the US is stuck with both old and crappier versions of a lot of stuff, but where it still doesn't make financial sense to rip them out and replace them with the newest.

Our financial system suffers from a lot of similar flaws. E.g. by the time other countries knew enough to base their credit cards on chips+PIN, the US was still stuck with a legacy installed base of stripes+signatures. Money transfers is just one more example.
Merge/branch commits can’t be useful by definition. No work was done on the branch/merge. I don’t understand your gripe.
Not sure why this is being downvoted: Finns themselves joke about having no fashion sense, and the stereotypes is guys in sweatpants with a flask of vodka in the back pocket and women with no makeup. Things have improved over the last 20 years, but the contrast to Russia in particular is very noticeable.
History books of are replete in their description of Japan's attitude towards surrender. They certainly would have surrendered by the end of the year, but the casualties for Japan (and China and the US) would have been horrendous.

Concerning the bombing of Hiroshima I'll quote an excerpt from https://www.history.com/this-day-in-history/japan-surrenders

After the Hiroshima attack, a faction of Japan’s supreme war council favored acceptance of the Potsdam Declaration, but the majority resisted unconditional surrender. On August 8, Japan’s desperate situation took another turn for the worse when the USSR declared war against Japan. The next day, Soviet forces attacked in Manchuria, rapidly overwhelming Japanese positions there, and a second U.S. atomic bomb was dropped on the Japanese coastal city of Nagasaki.

As horrific as the bomb was, it put a decisive end to the war. Everyone, especially the Japanese, avoided a massive slaughter (and starvation) that was coming.
Current estimates are that 100,000 people were in the streets tonight.

Lukashenka made enemies with Russia and Putin personally. He is under sanctions from EU and US.

Over the last few months, he managed to loose all the remaining support base he had.

He personally ordered killings and openly said it in his last address on August, 3.

He literally put his first wife, the mother if his two kids and his lover, the mother of his third kid to jail.

He sleeps with young girls and brags about it.

He is sick, both mentally and physiologically.
The “breaking changes” were creating a phone with a larger screen (iOS 5). Apps still worked but they looked horrible.

On the other hand for productivity apps, I would expect them to support split screen on the iPad when it was introduced and the File picker (it did).

Should Apple also have kept the Silicon needed to support 32 bit apps forever?
Also the train to Edinburgh <ducks>..
That is the workaround, just add it as "comment":"comment text". Having one comment for each field in an object would get unwieldy though. Anther place for them is possibly in the json schema file.

Well they are currently able to scan media and maintain a fingerprint database of illegal content. If it’s encrypted this is not possible right? That’s a serious trade off.
Often, as LockPickingLawyer on YouTube has demonstrated, one can simply place a magnet in just the right location to pop a relay and bypass all the high-tech gimmickry.

The British had several military units surrender during WWII. As far as I know, the Japanese did not.
That used to be common until a few decades ago, but naturalization for Swiss-born children of immigrants has become much easier in recent years (and much more of a legal right, rather than a privilege granted at the discretion of communities).

Only 0.1% of the Swiss population are non-naturalized third generation immigrants, and only 2.4% are non-naturalized second generation immigrants. https://www.bfs.admin.ch/bfs/en/home/statistics/population/m...

This is still higher than e.g. in the US, where the corresponding numbers are close to zero, but it's not nearly as high as it used to be.
>it very well might be

Nope. The story with "Russian mercenaries" is clearly aimed at creating a "besieged fortress" image to convince citizens that country needs a "strong leader" and stability. Before every election there is some kind of an external threat, which gets forgotten soon afterwards. Previously it was the West, now it's Russia.

Russia is less skillful at inducing and controlling street protests, so it usually sees it as an attempt by West to topple current government and install a more dependent one. And since none of the opposition candidates are visibly more pro-Russian than Lukashenko (which is a "known evil" for the Russian government), it makes scenario of Russia inducing those protests even less likely. I bet that in the following days Russia will accept the election results and will not condone suppression of protests too much,

Australian would have been counterproductive, as there was a time when it could be said Australia uses -ise; Britain prefers -ize and America use -ize.

Nowadays I have no idea if there'r any distiction - maybe just permitting one to spell “program” correctly?

Before computer dictionaries one Australian newspaper used “color, -ise” as its spelling which I find preferable.
Yeah, we have a similar system called the "New Payments Platform" in Australia. You can use the traditional account/branch identifier numbers, or register a phone number or company number to an account. So people can generally just instantly transfer you money without even asking for details if they have your phone number.

This. Passports are available in card form as well as book form too so you can carry a passport card in your wallet with your state ID. I have no plans to get a "Real ID" driver's license since I already have a passport card.
Curious what does “reducing of e2e” refer to? What does reduction without elimination look like?
Anecdotally, I live in a less popular region of Canada - our version of flyover country if you like - and our real estate has been on fire despite the rioting over here being fairly muted. I think a lot of homeowners in large urban centres are getting out due to fears of the pandemic and in some cases, being able to work remotely. So they're selling their condos in trendy cities like Toronto and Vancouver and buying single family homes in places like Halifax.

Not sure whom they're selling to though, investors maybe...

It is definitely a strange economic situation.
Plus the point about lifespan, the nuclear plant doesn’t need to be replaced in 25 years. You get twice the lifespan for the same cost.
It's also the the information about these events is so hidden. The govt admits no wrong and hides all evidence to the contrary. For that alone I prefer to err on the side of these events being pretty bad.

Also having known an eye witness to Tiananmen square, I'm confident it was bad. Really bad. If he were to get caught talking about it, things would be really bad for him too. So you won't find many witnesses willing to talk.
Anyone using TOR for security or anonymity has a screw loose. Without a for-profit model for hosting nodes we can assume the whole network is being controlled by just a few interested actors.

> Yep, some of these predictions are outright comical. "has covid ended handshakes forever" or "will we ever go back to bars?".

I agree. Do people think it's really a good idea to always be coddling your immune system? If this were to happen, the next pandemic will probably be far worse. Just saw a study that says that having the cold recently could help your immune system fight covid-19. Of course I don't know how accurate it is, but the one thing I do know is that nobody fully understands covid and how the immune system handles it.
This looks like misleading FUD. I don't think it's fair to draw conclusions based on a random Tweet like this.

I suspect this is a flaw in the DPI system rather than Nest itself. It sounds like UniFi DPI inaccuracy is a known thing [0]. And, Omegle?? And zero bytes downloaded?

I just don't want to repeat what happened on HN a few weeks ago with that tweet about Apple refunds.

EDIT: for context, I'm taking the approach of legal systems, where what matters is not whether someone is guilty, but whether there is sufficient evidence for them to be treated as such. Sure, maybe they do send a few KB to Omegle, but this tweet is nowhere close to enough evidence to make that claim
Interesting historical fact was Banks originally envisioned that the Australian colony at Botany Bay should become one big marijuana farm to supply the Brish market demand for hemp.
He claims this, but this is definitely not true. These people are Belarusians, Lukashenko abuses power for 26 years and kills innocent people throughout the history. Today on the voting day Belarusians have seen each other on voting stations, they have seen how many people voted against the dictator. Most of my friends are against, my family is against and there is no Russia behind us.
I’m curious if you have done any research at all into Covid’s origin? For me it would be very surprising to find someone who has now expressing your implied distain for those who are considering the possibility it originated in the Wuhan lab. This isn’t a political topic or at least shouldn’t be.

Don't be denser, judging others by their appereance is shallow. The fact that people still do it doesn't mean that when you change your clothes that's any kind of expression proper.

It's just a cheap way to signal something that you might or might not be, and only superficially at that.
Right, that will work.

I fully agree that Sysbox use-cases extend beyond docker-in-docker and k8s-in-docker. These, docker and k8s, were just the first two system 'apps' that we decided to support, but Sysbox can grow to support many others.

To be fair, we are not expecting Sysbox to be able to run _every_ application, for many apps you'll still need hw virtualization. Our goal is to focus on the (potentially large) subset of apps that could technically run inside a container, but are not capable of doing so due to current runtime limitations (mainly coz they were not designed for that purpose).

Thanks.
> Singapore is a technologically advanced society, they could pull it off if they gave it the attention it deserves.

There's no evidence that Singapore has not already considered this idea, and subsequently given it precisely the attention it deserves.

I understand that you think it's a grand idea, but the indisputable fact that many technologically advanced societies are eschewing these things may indicate your evaluation criteria is incomplete.
Now I’m feeling stupid. What is personality a euphemism for?

Oh that's my mistake then! I read the article looking for that but I didn't see it. I guess I didn't read it thoroughly enough.

I do agree that over the course of the next 10-50 years renewables + storage is likely to be cheaper.

What I'm not sure about is if "the grid" will be cheaper or if we'll end up seeing the renewables self-ownership spiral that causes folks to disconnect from the grid, driving prices up for everyone else on the grid, thus causing more people to disconnect, etc. When renewables are cheap and your house's usage is fairly well known (see years of smart meter historical data) then at some point it becomes economically feasible to be your own grid.
What I really want this payment system to do is eliminate the direct debit system from checking accounts and return some real security to banking. Secure, irrevocable payments, only initiated by me, from my account to others.

No more system that allows mistake debits or others to accidentally/maliciously deduct from my checking account, such that I have to be watching for errors and ask for them to be fixed. Or wondering if someone's payment to me might be reversed. Or having my (or your) parents fall victim to an advance fee scam with bounced checks 2 weeks after deposit. Ridiculous.

It's well past time for this. Or at least now give me the choice to have those loopholes eliminated from my checking account.
If you’re a film student, the answer is obviously “blue.”
&& is always strict in its first argument. Pattern matching is strict. It's hard to predict when some random function you call with force a thunk you've passed it. My position is still that lazy-by-default is a really bad evaluation policy and that consequently, Haskell is a dead end in language evolution.
A little over 20% of US electricity is generated from coal. There are around 2400 coal power plants in the world.

My understanding is that if we could turn off all the coal plants tomorrow we could actually significantly reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Would it buy us a significant amount of time if we accelerated the conversation to natural gas?
New account and I’m guessing you just haven’t read too many experts actually.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but the Real ID act[1] is a national ID in every way but the name.

If it was a national ID, it would be mandatory. Real ID is optional.
That kind of reasoning can be used to justify all kind of things that are considered crimes. Wipe out 200K in one action just to show power seems too much.
I don't accept that the amount of creativity used to create weapons cannot be applied also to use them more wisely in ways that don't wipe out 200k.
They're valuable when you're looking for who broke the codebase.
Under the hood, it is currently significantly more expensive than BECS however.
Then why are they wasting space in the log? That's the gripe, the white noise.
No program, just the set of a strings (or equivalently all integer). Consciousness interpreters these in the order it chooses, creating time and all the rest.
> I'm surprised this is allowed in the linux kernel. I am not familiar, but assuming these are commit messages, that's pretty damn pathetic.

Exactly so clearly if you even are willing to consider the possibility that SARS-Cov-2 escaped, you are crazy and a right wing nut ok. See how that works.
Analysis happens on either end, not the network or servers. Of course if both ends are "cracked" this doesn't work, but the goal is to stop mass spread of disinformation. Most people won't modify their client.
It was disappointing to see that segue from Gates.

Consider that the pile-on of that doctor - an African from Cameroon where Christianity is blended with traditional tribal superstition - happened around the same time as the Professor of Epidemiology at Yale School of Public Health published a Newsweek piece on how HCL is a valid early-stage treatment [1].

I understand this is how the media works: an advocate of HCL who has fringe cultural beliefs was retweeted by Trump, so the story was irresistible and endlessly amplified (including here by Gates).

But the quality of debate would be so much better if the media engaged with the (superficially) strongest proponents of a position (such as Harvey Risch) and aimed withering criticism and analysis at them instead. Shouldn't the focus be on dismantling the claims of the most, not the least, credentialed proponents?

Instead the media from all quarters deliberately amplifies the most fringe proponents, so now HCL is shorthand for expressing disdain for particular cultural beliefs, and those 10 million views were significantly driven by most media outlets covering her.

A standard backed by the US government isn't going to be just another standard.
You can tell that by the author metadata.
Not really anymore than drivers licenses are.

The Real ID Act just sets a standard for "enhanced" drivers licenses that will also be accepted by various government agencies as "verified ID".

Each state still has their own databases of drivers licenses and you can still get the original IDs without the extra verification step (basically proof of address and immigration status).

Before Real ID, you pretty much just told them your address and they didn't care that much about immigration status (as long as you were legal). NOTE: this varied by states considerably - some states were already doing many of these things before the Real ID Act (they just were doing it their own way).
Because it is a bad thing for the project. You're reading into this too much.

Such a premise begs the question that those given the power would sincerely use it to shutdown child exploitation and other crime.

It seems to me that there are many instances where child exploitation is ignored when it is politically convenient such that giving up our privacy wouldn't be of benefit to society, and would be largely to our detriment.

>>>I'm curious to know -- for people who seek residency in Japan, do they typically do it with the plan to stay forever?

I do. It's a "sweet spot" place to live. No threat of violence from law enforcement, significantly reduced threat of violence from the general population, extremely high standard of living, and the country is well-positioned as a base of operations for travel or business across most of Asia. Also, despite some high expenses compared to America, it's a great place to own a sports car if that is a major hobby (and it is for me). Many of the happiest people I know are Western expats in Japan who are small-business owners. It's important to disconnect from the "Japanese corporate wage slave" or "English teacher" life experiences. I'll never back to the US if I can avoid it.
It's SRAM vs DRAM not the speed of light. Go take a look a DRAM CAS values as clock speeds have increased. The ns/fetch has stayed pretty static(~10ns) since DDR first showed up.

There's been slight improvements but nothing like the order of magnitudes you seen in other areas.

If you want to pay the power and cost of SRAM it can be done but it doesn't usually pencil out beyond what you see in caches today.
> Well they are currently able to scan media and maintain a fingerprint database of illegal content. If it’s encrypted this is not possible right? That’s a serious trade off.

No more a trade off than the existence of the internet or computers - which are wholly implicated in encouraging a far worse behavior than the transport of illegal porn. They facilitate it's creation. In this, we have an even more serious trade off.
