In the special case of Stack Overflow, I think the overriding concern should be to make sure that the page with the title "How do I do foo with 'cut'" has, as its most visible response, a description of how to do foo with 'cut'.

A note afterwards pointing the user to sed or awk is a fine thing, but the purpose of Stack Overflow is to be a curated database of questions and answers, not a support forum.

It probably should mandatory reading for Stack Exchange users, it's an excellent article. Certainly resonated a lot, both with things I've personally done wrong and have seen happen repeatedly.

The "No Third Rails" section just screams SE. So many times I've found a question that is exactly what I am asking only for the responses/comments to be filled with "Don't do that, do this instead" as though there's not a single person on the planet who has different usecases or needs than the __current paradigm__. The whole question then gets derailed and ends up useless yet still at the top of search results.
Do those ISPs with CGNAT also provide IPv6?
>I would argue that the founders were students of Greek and Roman history which preceded them by almost 2000 years. The lessons encoded in the bill of rights were in fact, timeless and speak to the innate nature of human beings. As a species we haven't evolved much in 200K years.

Which is why it took until just within the last century to guarantee voting rights to people besides white men? It is bizarre how we want to pretend that those who came before us had some magical foresight to setup rules to govern a world they could never imagine while we ignore so many clear mistakes they made such as calling rights inalienable while simultaneously disenfranchising a majority of the population.

Interestingly, many old workstations that did 3d (primarily SGI), had what was called an overlay plane. This was essentially a separate frame buffer using indexed color into a palette. One of the colors would indicate transparency. The overlay was traditionally used for all UI or debug output on top of a 3d scene. For example, the Alias/Wavefront 3d modeler required this feature in order to run. It allowed the slower 3d hardware of that era to focus on a complex scene vs the scene AND the UI.

> the mdadm binary in d-i is compiled to have its config at /tmp/mdadm.conf. I don’t know why, but probably there is a good reason.

It’s certainly because all else of the installer file system hierarchy is mounted read-only I would think.
I am hesitant to take the lack of the ability to embed as a fact. My impression is that Everett had a theory in mind when he surveyed Piraha and that he sought to confirm his theory. That is, I am worried that this account is subverted by "theory selects data". So I think what we need is a lot more data, ideally collected by someone who the field views as (relatively) neutral.
In general even trying to copy-paste from pdflatex document is a nightmare.
These are more like footguns for beginners than intractable obstacles. For example, you can avoid the issues in your comment with static analysis (Typescript). And the Javascript professional just avoids things like arbitrary obj[prop] and prototype chain hacking.

And since they aren't intractable, and smart people regularly decide that it's worth the downsides, you're making the uninteresting observation that $lang has warts.
If Google did that, then Google would also be to blame for the resulting demographics not meeting everyone's standards for equality. It's really useful to be able to outsource some of the filtering process.
So my point was that having news.ycombimator.com in the title and address bar is not going to flag anything if they both match and have a SSL cert that's been signed by an authority.

Probably more relevant is that if I have registered luxowatch.com to sell my lovely watches, but am a small store, I certainly won't have registered (as yet) a bunch of global domains. There's nothing stopping you registering luxowatch.co.uk or luxowatch.net with a valid SSL cert to scam my potential customers. Cloning my site to one of those domains (with cert) can be done almost instantly for close to zero cost.

Considering there is actual CO₂ consumption (oceans, plants, rocks weathering, synthetic fuel?..), using the full term from the article seems appropriate - consumption emissions.

If consumption emissions really decreased 11% from 1990 -> 2014, that's quite an achievement. Even though we need 10x that.
It really isn't "done" if you tell people they probably should look at alternatives instead. Sounds more like a soft deprecation to me.

Physically too. But it's a question of perspective: glass half-empty or half-full. Are planetary systems plentiful? It seems so, as a ratio of all star systems - as far as we know at least. Definitely not, as a ratio of the total volume of space. Similarly, the idea that we are mostly vacuum, because the elementary particles are so small compared to the size of molecules, etc. But that doesn't much change our intuitions about solidity vs. emptiness in every day life.
TBF I think this says more about Nextcloud than the Raspberry Pi. I also suspect it can be helped with some setup - I imagine the difference between disk I/O performance is going to be greater than the CPU differences if you're comparing a Pi4 to a recent-ish PC.
When you're booted in the installer environment, /etc is writable. Some of the sample code in the article shows writing a file in /etc, and the file write works fine, mdadm just doesn't read the file.

I believe the reason is that mdadm in the installer exists to create arrays for the installed system, so the installer's RAID configuration needs to supply a configuration file, and for some reason that's handled by having the installer's RAID configuration write it to /tmp/mdadm.conf and having mdadm read it from there. (Rather than, say, writing it to a temporary file and directing mdadm to read that temporary file.)
Avoiding the news is a good recipe for becoming ignorant, and only knowing the propaganda. In a world of public relations experts, the only way to avoid this is to look for original sources that you can trust (e.g. by interacting with people who were part of the event), and/or listen to as many different news sources as you can find. You should usually avoid the bigger ones, especially the ones intended for mass consumption.

If you just find out about the world from what the NYT or Fox or WSJ write about, you only know propaganda.
Seems like a cool idea, but when you are testing download/upload where are you testing to? When I visit Google’s speedtest it shows me drastically slower speeds than if I go to fast.com or speed.cloudflare.com.

Netflix and HBO aren’t what I was referring to - I was referring to “real” over-the-air and cable television. Cable is paid for everywhere by channel/package. OTA is paid for in many places in the world through e.g. tv license in the Uk.

This is like a tragedy of the commons situation where there are massive, life changing incentives for people to break the commons. You can’t run a society where you hope that all individuals will be good.
They wouldn't be able to sell products with this 'acquired' architecture to anyone. Just ask how Huawey sales are doing in US and Europe.
Even then, what if one salesperson builds up better longer term relationships (e.g. by not pushing options the customer doesn't really need) and thus their future sales will be better but their initial productivity looks poor?

Or a team player who is good at opening conversations but not closing? (I know, always be closing)

But yes, with a quantifiable and accurate and business-orientated metric, you can measure some form of productivity. It is still hard for most roles in most organisations.

Exactly my point though.

Apple is large enough that if they want to break from ARM in the future they can do so by forking an LLVM backend. That's not a large job if it's a very small change, but once it's been done once they have plenty of resources to provide ongoing support (like they do for webkit).

The dividends of doing so are potentially massive. Given that they've been able to make really large gains with the A series chips to date on mobile (not least because they've been able to offload tasks to dedicated co-processors that general-purpose ARM cores don't ship with), the rewards for having chips that are a generation ahead of other like-for-like computers will outweigh the cost of maintaining the software.

It makes a big difference and doesn't only help websites that take seconds to load.

Just look at its hover->click speed demo on the landing page. I'm getting 500ms+ if I click it casually like I do most links. All of that time could be spent loading the next page.

https://dev.to/ (blog platform) does prefetching to great effect.

The onus is on you to decide if this would create a bunch of false positive prefetches for your desktop users, like if your website was a bunch of densely packed links. You could also scope this to prefetch only a subset of links.

But your users deserve more deliberation over their UX than a kneejerk yay/nay.
Which websites did you donate to? I’m curious about smaller projects that are worth looking at.
LTS in js-world is usually something like "we support it for about three months, maybe six".

And if within that period they release an incompatible version, your upgrade path is worse, beacause your version is too old.
> We're in the early stages of AI controlling the global political future

If you just broaden your definition of AI a little to include the collective decision-making processes of a market-based corporate-controlled press and political system, this has been going on for decades, if not centuries. It's only recently that computers got added to the mix and inevitably bubbled to the top of the heap. Or, I should say, helped bubble some people to the top of the heap.

Quotas were mostly an instrument of discrimination and that has not changed. You don't treat people fairly by making skin color a relevant attribute to determine fairness, that is true for any intrinsic characteristic.

And there are "injustices" you cannot equalize without significant oppression of others. Tallness, beauty, charisma... how would you ensure fairness here?

Colorblindness works in most parts of the world. The recent pop-"enlightenment" leads to much strive. Justifiably so. Reason for that is that it is wrong in my opinion because it is racist. The tendency for self-victimization is a path to even more racism, but that is another perspective.

Accessibility touches the subject of justice too but doesn't fit here as an argument, because ensuring equal access doesn't require discrimination, has a defined goal and is ensured and completed at some point.
If the root-cause was anything more than a zoonotic event then there will never be an independent and serious investigation on it.

Personally there are so many inconsistences with the timeline and location that I am much more inclined to believe the hypothesis of a "Gain-of-function" experiment that negligently escaped the lab, more so than a 'designed' virus or an unfortunate zoonotic event.

I don't want to be controversial or go into arguments on facts versus 'circunstancial' evidence but I would like to point out that the last time I linked a url about this on reddit, my comments got silently shawdowbanned.

No, and they have no excuse.

The cable ISP recently switched to a DOCSIS 3.1 network in certain areas, and almost all customers have a modem/gateway that has IPv6 support perfected (IPv6 is quite an old thing, would be weird for it not to work properly now - on the CPE side), but nope, they don't want to.

They don't like their users being able to host content, given the fact they make it extremely difficult to pay for a static IP and get a modem or have your gateway switched into bridge mode (the newest models have had that removed from firmware, and the ISP downgrades you to 3.0 speeds if you want bridge and pay for a static IP). I am not sure why, but the whole company is extremely antagonistic to the idea of a user having a public IP address of any kind.

Mobile carriers do not support it either, and have no excuse at all, given the modern LTE Advanced networks they have deployed, with VoLTE, and the modernized core infrastructure by Huawei to the highest standards of the 4th generation of networks. Except IPv6 of course.

This is the same in most Balkan countries and in other parts of the world.
This is an opportunity for China to come out ahead. Nvidia just imploded one of the most entrenched ISAs and leveled the playing field to newcomers. From a Chinese perspective the worst thing that could have happened is that ARM dominates mobile, desktop, servers and embedded. ARM was rock solid before the Nvidia acquisition. Now it's on shaky ground.

I moved recently from the UK, where my home and office both had fiber, to live in a tiny picturesque village in the Istrian hills in Croatia.

Initially, my 4g router was getting a signal strength of -110 to -120db, corresponding to two bars and zoom video not working. Spent €90 on an outdoor aerial. Plugged it into the router. Signal now averages -85, four to five bars on the router, zero issues with video calls.

My point being: there’s more than one way to skin a cat and you can often improve your mobile signal if you want to.
It's pretty systemic, not an exception. Just of the top of my head.

"In 1999, Enercon, a German company and leading manufacturer of wind energy equipment, developed a breakthrough generator for wind turbines. After applying for a US patent, it had learned that Kenetech, an American rival, had submitted an almost identical patent application shortly before. By the statement of a former NSA employee, it was later discovered that the NSA had secretly intercepted and monitored Enercon's data communications and conference calls and passed information regarding the new generator to Kenetech. As German intelligence services are forbidden from engaging in industrial or economic espionage, German companies are frequently complaining that this leaves them defenceless against industrial espionage from the United States. According to Wolfgang Hoffmann, a former manager at Bayer, German intelligence services are aware which companies are being targeted by US intelligence agencies, but refuse to inform the companies involved."

I’m testing a bunch of SwiftUI2 features right now so it’s constrained to iOS 14 for them. If you’re on the beta, you’ll get it when iOS 14 is released.
I agree with the negative points about guilds, but I don't think they're any worse than the current PhD system in academia.

Another important difference between guilds and academia was that you did not have to pay tuition fees to become an apprentice. In some cases apprentices got no salary, but lived in the master's household and had free board and lodging - although their role typically also included some aspects of being a household servant. But you didn't have to pay an extortionate fee to get into an apprenticeship, and you typically did leave with skills that let you earn a living. The apprenticeship system was in other words accessible to a much wider class of people than "good" degrees nowadays are.

Nowadays of course, apprenticeships pay you - not a lot, but enough to survive on.
It’s not exactly a conspiracy because it doesn’t require coordination.

The idea is that if Covid came from a lab, it will make the field of virology as a whole look bad, because it implies studying viruses actually makes us less safe.

It can also be explained by respect of your colleagues - to accuse them of lying may hurt your career even if tue.

I’m not defending this paper - it raises too many red flags - but it’s easy to see why such theories are likely to come from outside the field.
Sounds like that could fraud statistics like GA
bad blocks on harddisks are also often remapped when written to. However in my (limited) experience once you get badblocks the disk detoriates often. So this badblocks feature is probably not as useful because the harddisk firmware is the only place that knows about badblocks and "lies" to you.

However for deciding if an old disk is still usable I've found that overwriting the whole disks multiple times with the badblocks utility (https://linux.die.net/man/8/badblocks) - if the disk passes multiple runs without generating new bad blocks it's often still usable

As for iOS-only I’d assume lack of resources.

Developing and maintaining an app on multiple platforms (and keeping the code bases in sync) is no small undertaking (hence the existence of write-once / hybrid app frameworks such as Ionic).

Regarding iOS 14 my guess is SwiftUI.
The only way anything will happen to Facebook is if these three things actually happen in sequence and within a short period of time of the first event occurring.

1) Facebook wittingly or unwittingly ignores political manipulation on its platform within the United States of America that demonstrably affects US political outcomes.

2) All necessary parts of the US government required to hold a corporation like Facebook accountable for 1) act in concert to do so.

3) The US mainstream media extensively reports on 1) and 2).
HomeDrive features plug-and-use, with no system maintenance required. We target not only developers/hackers, but also end-users who would like to have a small server at home, to host their own data and services for their digital lives. As a result, HomeDrive also maintains the OS to be reliable and secure, which is why we picked the hardware. We are investigating supporting more hardware, such as raspberry pi's.

KubeSail feels like a more accessible k8s+docker apps to me. I am not sure what security model KubeSail is assuming for the operating systems it is running on (or does it assume the OS is out of the scope?). Also KubeSail seems to target mostly developers/hackers.
> But the fact is, the commenter was wrong about his priors. Actually someone who buys a ladder is indeed more likely to buy another one ... even if most people that buy ladders only buy a single ladder. The fact that you bought a ladder, puts you in the cohort of people that buys ladders, which means you are more likely to buy another one than someone who isn't on the record buying a ladder.

Be that as it may it’s still ridiculous. There are very many other things I am going to buy before I buy another ladder. And Amazon should be able to know that because of having seen me search for very many other things in the past that I have not yet bought.

And if nothing else, couldn’t they let me at least click a little button next to any suggestions to tell their algorithm that no I am not interested in this recommendation?
