As nitrogen pointed out, that's what the buffer is for.

You're right, you can't individually run a just-in-time supply system for your family. (Well, you could, but it meant a lot of grocery runs every week ;)

What I'm saying is that you do not want just-in-time. Neither by yourself, nor by people who are really good at it. Systems are resilient by having built-in slack. Remove the slack, you've optimized the well-lit path. And become much more susceptible to failures.

Ask people in the Northeast who just had a week of power loss how redundancy helped them. The ones who have a backup power source will nod vigorously. Ask midwesterners how they prepare for winter (especially in rural areas). Having that buffer is helpful.

It doesn't need to be 90 days, that's my personal threshold.

And yes, it's easy. "Hey, I need X" -> "Go get it from storage, and put it on the list". It'll take a while to flush out unseen needs, but the same is true for a standing Amazon order. I'm not saying drop ordering/shopping on demand right now - just order a decent supply next time you order, instead of one pack.

And sure, you can keep Amazon as your supplier, but we've just proven out that they're a single point of failure. (Remember ordering in April/May and getting delivery dates for August?). Having local alternatives is valuable. Support them even if they aren't immediately necessary.
Dino is an XMPP client, so you will be getting chat. You would then need to connect to an XMPP server and set up the client to use your Jitsi server as the place for conferences.
How close is difference between theory and conspiracy, if the main actor does not want you to know something?

One of the strategies can be to completely poison information, as you said "label". In that way it would be hard to distinguish between "true" and "untrue", and in that way basically force researchers to even approaching subject. In that way only person from inside could uncover truth... I guess ...

And this is same problem like with corrupt government, if they hold all the keys it is very hard to overthrow dictator, as it is very hard for truth to surface out.
"So, I have a construction N95-type mask: its vent/valve/whatever is dead center right on the front. If we're talking about droplets/aerosols mostly, it seems directionality would be a pretty big factor ..."

This is correct, but look closely - there is a flap valve inside the little valve housing that hinges at the top, and the direction of the exhaust is downward.
He's not been really out of the public sphere.

He has always been involved in a number of social issues through his foundation and have been very vocal/public about them.

Maybe we're just hearing a bit more about him and his thoughts because he's involved in looking for a way out of Covid through his foundation, and has famously 'predicted' something like this.
Citus and Timescale are apples and oranges.

Citus is just scale-out Postgres. TimescaleDB is Postgres for time-series.

There are a long list of capabilities that we've built for time-series that Citus does not have: native 15x compression, data retention policies, continuous aggregates (real-time materialized views refreshed automatically), interpolation, etc.

Nothing against Citus (we are friends with that team) - but they are designed to solve a different problem than we are.
Jira Is a Microcosm of What's Broken in Software Development
I can't vouch for the veracity of this claim, but I once read somewhere that it takes a while for the vitamin D, which is apparently created in the upper layers of the skin, to work its way down into the bloodstream, and that if you spend a lot of time in the water, it doesn't make it through. Maybe because being wet a lot tends to dehydrate the skin? I don't know.

I built a desktop rig for my dad back in 2013 with an i3-3220. Seven years later it still works just fine for his needs. The only thing I changed over the years was to add a bit more RAM. I don't plan on updating it unless the CPU/mobo dies.
So do that? Distros provide packages but they don't make you install them. Download the applications from their website and stick them in /usr/local or your home directory. If the applications don't provide builds, that's their problem. We have AppImages for a single-file solution, but I've used plenty of application directories you can just unpack and use. Julia is one.
What is the use case for a C++ web framework? Would higher level languages/frameworks make use of this to do some of the heavy lifting? Would a company migrate to something like this once at scale? Or, are there just some people/companies who prefer to use C++?
The US routinely does the same, and they generally receive some amount of praise from the population as a result. The same thing would happen in Russia.

Not official yet, though there is a statement from Mozilla:

"Mozilla's search partnership with Google is ongoing, with Google as the default search provider in the Firefox browser in many places around the world. We've recently extended the partnership, and the relationship isn't changing."

Personally, I'm disappointed. The financial upside is superficially positive, but it doesn't really stand up to much deeper analysis:

1. It gives google a small but perhaps important crutch against the mounting anti-trust allegations against it

2. It fundamentally compromises Mozilla. There's simply no way they can effectively promote privacy when their biggest backer is the most invasive participant in the surveillance economy

3. It removes Mozilla's "sink or swim" imperative. $450M in the bank means they have to fight a lot less hard to survive.

Fully accept I'm not the one staring at a black hole in the finances if the google gravy train went away. But I don't see this as helping the cause of the free internet; quite the opposite.
I see lots of ways to filter out companies, but no way to see jobs for all of them - or at least it does not seem obvious to me.

What if I want a stable distribution, but need latest versions of some software?

Installing anything outside of distro repositories and Flatpak (& alternatives) is, in most cases, PITA.

Tracking down missing dependencies, figuring out which libraries are compatible, downloading source for those libraries, because the system provided are outdated, etc. You can literally spend a whole day just building a somewhat simple application.

I'm not a fan of binary blobs, like it's customary on macOS/Windows, but at least I can actually use an application in a minute or so, after downloading it. There is no fussing around, it just simply works.
It’s the same thing but they pay programmers and designers instead of musicians. It’s actually better because most of these programmers and designers make decent amount of money - unlike Spotify.

There are several comments on the value of having this project be "pure rust".

Based on my experience, the main value is that it makes this code easily portable.

Meaning, if you can compile rust on your device, you can just run this code without worrying about also installing and appropriately linking the correct version of some C library. It's a huge convenience.

Of course, this only works if all dependencies are also pure Rust. I haven't verified that this is the case here. Here's hoping!

The early days of Gitlab – learnings from a chat with Sid
> Your individualism leads not to "freedom" but to accountants who help companies dodge (not avoid) tax, to politicians who don't speak up because it will damage their career, to bankers who extend credit when they know it's unsustainable in pursuit of their bonus, to news anchors who hold their tongue to avoid upsetting sponsors, on and on.

Every one of your complaints is a criticism of institutional incentives and publicly traded corporations rather than individualism.

There is no journalist alive who prefers, as an individual, to hold their tongue to avoid antagonizing sponsors. The possibility of doing otherwise was only ever enabled by the members of the local community who had enough resources to not have to care about losing sponsors by doing the right thing, and who were then willing to stand behind the journalists as the owners of the media company.

Today the companies are publicly traded, and doing that costs the shareholders money (or the parties votes, for political institutions), so anybody who does it is replaced by someone who doesn't. That is what's wrong. But that, ironically, is the consequence of a form of collective ownership. It's the principal-agent problem, where the shareholders as people don't actually want that but the institution is configured to prioritize making more money and you, as the owner of a retirement account which is the owner of an index fund which is the owner of a corporation, are not actually consulted on the decisions being made in your name.

Much of this would be solved if we had fewer layers of indirection between the principals and the agents, i.e. more smaller companies rather than fewer larger ones, or government which is more local and less central, so that the stakeholders who never wanted any of this to begin with are closer to the decisions that are being made in ways they don't prefer and have a better chance of causing them to be made in a different way. That's more of an increase in individualism than anything, though.
The facts absolutely do not support either interpretation. The only reason Snowden is in Russia is that the US canceled his passport.
I'm sorry, can't find a picture right now.

I call it "basket weave veneer", made by taking thin plane shavings, boiling them in a kettle and straightening them under weight and finally weaving them like a basket and applying some glue.

The Linux ecosystem is managed by people and convincing dozens (or hundreds) of people to support what I write (which is required for an API to be anything but a N+1 toy) is no small effort. I play enough politics in my day job and have little desire to do so in my free time.

As I see it, it'd take someone with a lot of political connections and political capital in the Linux ecosystem to be able to pull it off successfully. I have neither.

Actually the major problem for most fabs (Intel/GloFo/Samsung/etc) is not that they can't make 7nm chips, it's they can't make it cheap enough (in high enough yields) to compete with TSMC. However in this case, China can subsidize SMIC to produce at a loss until they eventually catch up compared to the open market.
> This is essentially a religious belief, and using "Chrome is the superior browser" as the foudation to your argument that "Google did nothing wrong" is weak and essentially circular.

Lets not oversimplify things. "Product competition" and "google doing nothing wrong" do not need to be, and are not, synonymous. These attributes are separated by at least a decade though.

I'm pretty sure enough of us in this thread were using the web when chrome was emerging, it _did_ offer a compelling alternative to the pretty dire alternatives at the time whatever your platform, and all on it's own merrits. For such complex beasts it's hard to quantize into best, and browsers wax an wayne in terms of keeping up with web standards and performance expectations... never the less at the time, chrome was a breath of fresh air in the context of the very stale state of browser development.

At the time it really didn't matter what Google's motives were, browsers sucked and this was good competition... But in the context of a monopoly in browser share (which lets face it chrome has become)... Motive is very important.

I agree with you though, the parent comment is wrong that the competition is still alive, it's merely historic at this point.

The underlying theme is motives vs competition - in the right context (competition), ulterior motives are neutralized due to market forces. However once overcome, those true motives take over.

My background is a technologist who observed the Snowden story. I followed some of the details and was genuinely shocked at the revelations therein. I was looking at HN for more info at the time. But I also followed main stream media. The gulf between the technical details that were reported on HN and mainstream news sites was so large, it was clear to me that a damage limitation exercise was being undertaken. That in itself raised loads more questions for me.

Here's a link to a video on Snowden's disappearing glasses:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5QqxLalvh-4

Cutting to the chase, if it is as I suggest it is - that most media is there as part of the governance structure to beam a particular type of messaging to us - you then have a few options.

You can refuse what I say, and accept the media as is presented. This is surely the path of least resistance.

If you care about the truth, you can look more deeply and research all ideas before accepting them as true. Just because you see something on TV does not make it true. My thesis is that news media is just production of a show, like a film or cartoon. You don't trust films or cartoons - so don't trust the news. Here's a fun example:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5cDYKXMkSRs
- check the folder change colour live on the news! Is it fair enough to manipulate what we see on account of a "green" budget?

My bottom line nowadays, philosophically speaking, is that I am only prepared to accept as true that which I can confirm for myself via my own experience. This may sound a weak position, and it is perhaps. But I stand on solid ground as I am personally able to verify whatever I claim.

With regards to events that are presented in the media, I take an aggressive deconstructive position, and ask questions such as: have I been provided evidence, am I being emotionally manipulated, is the story coherent, etc. I find my questioning frequently provides evidence that the story is not coherent, and can be dismissed. That again may sound weak, but the thing with truth is that it is resilient and not incoherent - when you are presented with an incoherent story then you can dismiss and ignore _all_ of it.

So, my default position with media stories is to autohoax them and to lend far greater weight to personal experience.

Being outdoors isn't the same as sun exposure though. In particular, I can imagine that homeless people cover up more to prevent sunburn. Additionally, just being homeless might cause a depletion of vitamin D.

In general, I can imagine that people who spend a lot of time outdoors could get very little sun exposure since they would be more cognizant of the effects of the sun and more likely to wear sunscreen and protective clothing.
Yep. I agree it's a dud.
It really doesn't because your rephrasing elides the real question: "Does your neighbor have the liberty to play loud music around their neighbors" and the answer to that question in some states is "no, after a certain time."

Freedom from something requires them to have power over you. Your neighbor really doesn't in the same way the government does, an invading foreign power, or, the way GNU argues it, the way corporations do with their software licensing and copyright.

If we can't (and I really don't think this is the case), then anti-vaxxers are the price we pay for a free and open society.
