I think ssss11's point was, if no matter who you vote for they do the same dastardly things, and the political system is set up to lock out newcomers not allied with either major party, then there's no way within the system to stop something by voting.
To me the question is more: Is there an extremely valid reason to _not_ use K8s.

As a freelancer I visit quite a number of enterprise companies, think: Banks, Insurance, Airports, and they are all making the switch or are full-on invested in living in K8s by default. If it does not run in or was not made with K8s in mind: It will not be used/bought.

Another thing I'm noticing with smaller companies: If you start fresh, you choose k8s. Which mens all other stuff is already slowly dying by virtue of not beeing chosen.

Developers want/expect it, sysadmins see the benefits from day one, and companies see the potential gains of using less cloud resources and a platform that could potentially run in multiple clouds for the first time ever.

K8s, openebs, prometheus/grafana, loki, kustomize, github actions. This is truly where "it's at" at the moment.

I think the author has been unlucky really.

The installation documentation has good instructions on how to setup Wordpress. We use chassis (https://beta.chassis.io) to run And develop it locally. If you’re looking to develop your own theme or plug-in it’s worth checking out.

That said creating static sites is not a common use case so the author is finding out its not super easy. Prior to installation warnings are shown for out of date plugins, so she is unfortunate to have skipped them.

Setup an author user then you don’t have to worry about the administrative screens that might be confusing.

I’d suggest to give it another go as it’s worth being self hosted and being in control of your own setup, if you’re interested in learning about PHP and WordPress.
Similar lib I made for Python: https://pypi.org/project/func-argparse/

The nice thing with Python is that I implemented a parser from a function signature, and it also works for NamedTuple.

The advantage wrt to other python parser is that it uses the type annotations, instead of guessing

Factorio is like a distillation of programming so as to retain the fun parts and minimise the unfun parts.

What do I mean by the unfun parts of programming? Real-world stuff that you inevitably have to deal with but which distracts from the core purpose.

Things like: discovering a bug in a library you depend on; dealing with hardware issues; changing requirements; disagreements with colleagues over tooling; deadlines; dealing with users; ...
> My hope is that this will bring down commercial real estate prices down significantly

I'm going to predict that this will not happen. More specifically, that it will be unusual in general for rents or prices anywhere to drop any more than 10%.

There's something odd going on and my best guess is that there are (a) accounting/tax practices that provide incentives for vacancy with certain nominal values and (b) real estate markets are now driven more by massive pools of capital trying to soak up opportunities than they are by demand on short-to-mid-term horizons.

But I don't know enough to say for certain and explain how, and I'm hoping that someone can tell me why/how I'm stupid.
The Graal compiler is known to be slow in terms of warmup. At the same time, it provides great peak-performance. However, and as you can see in the video, partial evaluation will trigger recompilation if the program is not "stable". And when you're interacting with an IDE, it will take quite some time for the IDE to become stable. Even worse, some things like debugging sessions will never be stable.

Of course, it doesn't make much sense to run your IDE at +60FPS. Squeak usually throttles the frame rate, and then the performance cliffs are harder to notice.

Nonetheless, the GraalVM team is very much aware of these problems and is actively working on them. We are only the first to visualize this in the form of an IDE. A couple of GraalVM releases ago, they introduced libgraal [1], which improved compilation times significantly. One idea to make this even better is to persist compiled code from the JIT, so that it can be reused the next time you run the program/IDE. Morphic, Squeak's UI framework, is unlikely to change and could be warmed up in advance.

We do not know that all plants and animals experience sensations subjectively. We know that they respond to stimuli; we do not know that they experience qualia.

This path can lead to solipsism, but there are many exit points between "I am the only conscious being" and "all living things are conscious."

Nim has style - you could just force it. You could also add a new-word-in-identifier sound, along with a sound at the beginning denoting the style (e.g. camel case vs snake case). If your language has well established standards for it (Rust comes to mind as using Camel case, snake_case and SCREAMING_SNAKE_CASE), then it could just be auto corrected to the correct style.
Most of these studies show that HCQ alone doesn't have much, if any, impact.

However, what needs more investigation is HCQ+zinc with HCQ acting as an ionophore, as a prophylactic measure for at-risk groups.

Those studies that "disprove" that HCQ works never included any zinc.

You are under the mistaken assumption that somehow exams are more fair or get a better view of what students can do. It's well established that exams measure a few limited congnitive constructs and its not the smartest or most hard working students that perform best, but rather those who are prepared by teachers for those exact constructs and the precise way of answering them. A brilliant student at a public school might study hard and still not get as good results as a mediocre and lazy student at a private school which tells them and drills them on the exam topics (often having their teachers in the exam boards and anyway paying more so that those teachers that care and know how yo play the game ate likely to be recruited there).

It's absurd to think a central exam gives a more accurate picture of... What? Aptitude? Effort? ...? Than the teachers can have from working with students often for several years, seeing their work ethics, involvement in class, personal situations, etc.

In short: the system was broken and biased to begin with (at least in England, Scotland is doing much better). Now this bias and favour of 'better' schools is explicitly enforced through this weighting algorithm.
the reason they go is to socialize. both men and women prefer to socialize in an environment that's not mostly men. bars were listed as a reason people live in sf. i say it's not, because a sausage fest that closes at 1am is not something people find as a reason to live in a city. the people who do are the people who sit at their weird guy-table in a normal bar full of girls, afraid to walk up and say hello.
The problem with these debates is that they turn into a referendum on how people feel about mysticism. Some want to think that a mysterious phenomenon like consciousness requires a solution that takes us beyond science into the mystical. Others can't stand mysticism, especially not in a field of scientific inquiry.

If neuroscience provides a detailed scientific explanation for how consciousness works, that'll put it all to rest. Of course, the mysticism camp doesn't believe this is possible even in principle, and there are likely to be some holdouts even after the problem is solved, just like we have flat earthers now.
Sounds interesting. I've often noticed that I sleep much better when I stay up longer than usual. I have commitments during the day that would prevent me from doing this though. Did you come up with the idea yourself? I didn't find anything on the web about it.

Note: The GP said "Air Sousvide" not "build a solar oven". And note I did mention using a surface that would raise the temp.

Your solar oven would not work in the shade, which is where this 130 temp was taken.

So, what is a red visual experience? Is it the reflective surface of the red-looking object? Is it photons around 700 nanometers wavelength? Is it the electrons traveling to the visual cortex from the eyes? Is it the neural activity in the visual cortex? Is it the symphony of different brain regions brining it all together into a visual experience?

Is this the exact symphony that plays in my brain that plays in yours when we look at the same red object? What about when you dream of a red object?
There would be other issues like how much we can change our sleeping hours and circadian. The article mentioned it's crazy to say everybody has to be the same height, but nutrition and exercise can influence how tall a children is going to be. Besides our heights, from weight to intellectual performance it's always interaction between nature and nurture.

Similarly, we shouldn't consider gene as an excuse against trying to be productive given fewer sleep hours. On the other hand, it could be better if we don't have to force ourselves or anyone to sleep fewer even if someday there would be a scientific way to do so.

Correct, this indicates that recompilation occurred. The first time Graal compiled some of the UI machinery, which is all written in Smalltalk, no input events were triggered in the IDE. Consequently, the partial evaluator removed those code paths from compiled code. When we move the mouse over the window or start to click on UI elements, we cause recompilation, now with event handling compiled in. That's why these performance cliffs go away over time.
I do believe city governments play an enormous role in these issues; the most obvious is the ridiculous and convoluted process for housing approvals in SF that has made it impossible for the city to come even close to providing adequate housing supply for the people that wish to live there, driving housing costs through the roof; coupled with the incessant stonewalling of any housing and transportation construction by municipalities across the Bay. Plus the fact that people dedicated to perpetuating this atrocious system keep getting elected to the the SF Board of Supervisors, no thanks to young people who would benefit from competition failing to show up to the elections.

But I also place a lot of blame on state policies too - CA Prop 13 is a cancer on the whole state, incentivizing land owners to fight tooth and nail to prevent progress. I'm glad that Scott Wiener got elected, though, as he's been making solid progress at the state level to rectify these issues.

The roots of these problems are not broadly federal in my opinion and, while they certainly can help, there's a lot of work to do at the city and state level that are achievable with a small number of dedicated people - if only they cared.

Neither would I just blame the sorry state of US cities on inadequate mental health care - while healthcare broadly certainly should be better, I'm in Japan where mental health awareness is relatively speaking in the stone age compared to SF, and that hasn't resulted in the level of human tragedy you experience viscerally by existing for 5 minutes in any of the US's major metropolises. Part of the reason for that is I can get my own apartment without roommates 15 minutes from the center of Tokyo for $600/mo, largely because the local government here actually does things to make it livable (and it's not just here, it's practically everywhere besides US cities).

I totally read that part. It still sucks for it because of how unpredictable cryptocurrencies are. Bitcoin has a bunch of "Bart Simpson" style pump and dumps and, even over the course of the many years of Bitcoin, unless you were a true believer from the early days, I'd find it hard to believe you came out ahead or didn't lose your shirt in the process. I'd rather not be subjected to that, and there is absolutely no guarantee bitcoin will be relevant 10 or 20 years down the road. Another black swan event, a cryptocurrency that becomes the new hotness, or maybe even a quantum computer breaking into wallets could render bitcoin worthless.

Another thing to consider, most users of bitcoin or whatever else generally relies on exchanges to get out what they are really after, US Dollars. The end game is to see which sucker will buy your tokens for more than you paid for it, then you can cash out. But to that end, we kinda have to trust the exchanges as well, and there are many cases of fraud that have happened at that level, which shakes trust in such a system.

Now if we are being intellectually honest here and asking ourselves if bitcoin and its ilk is good for something like speculation or even as the basis for treating it as an "exchange" for transferring money (albeit a rather low performing one at that compared to other established systems like SWIFT), then I can potentially see the benefit in that, even if I personally have no real use case for it.
Too bad the battery "kill switch" seems to be turned on permanently. I don't blame them - it's a hard problem to solve. Todays higher end phones go as far as to turn off parts of the chips on the fly, dynamically, on demand. But until it is solved, the device is more or less a curiosity rather than something useful in practice.

For the record, CentOS 7 can have gcc-9 by installing devtoolset-9. To get access, you have to start a shell that can see them with "scl enable devtoolset-9 bash".

But people delivering libraries to customers who have elected not to upgrade to current releases are pretty much stuck. It is extremely common for banks, in particular, to still be running gcc-4, and to have no plans ever to upgrade.

It is common at least in banks to have an unbreakable policy never to upgrade software on a server to a version that was not on it when it was unboxed. They may bend just so far as to install back-patched security fixes from the vendor. But a libstdc++.so compatible with a current language Standard? Haha, they say, you must be joking.

It is not unusual for them to still run RHEL 6, or even 5. Bloomberg infamously still has 32-bit SPARCs in the basement, running code compiled only ever with Sun's old compiler.
Only if you think replacing talk of subjective experiences like color, sound, pain, etc. with talk of loops and inflection points in the context of androids makes the hard problem go away.

I could quote Morpheus rhetorically asking Neo what reality is and then answering with, "If real is what you can feel, smell, taste and see, then 'real' is simply electrical signals interpreted by your brain."

But there is no mystery. Feeling is a self-referential concept. The concept of 'you' or 'me' 'feeling' presupposes a self, which smuggles in the conclusion that consciousness is related to some immaterial element.

Feeling is just how we experience reward and punishment. It's an epiphenomena of our machinery for interpreting and interacting with the world. An intermediate representation, essentially.
