It already does that. On first run, Bazel spawns a background process, which does all the work. In particular, it caches all the state (e. g. file hashes, parsed build files etc.)

Space probes need a LOT less power than a car. RTGs generally produce under 100 watts, while cars need more like 100 thousand.
My understanding is at least for Tesla’s (and presumably other EVs), Norway just lower the enormous taxes they normally apply to ICE cars.

If you use them, ask yourself, if they locked you out, what data would you lose? And how many accounts at other services are going to give you grief because you can't reply from that address now?
Looking at his other videos this seems like a clear cut case of copyright infringement, if he's not obtaining mechanical licenses. I don't understand why anyone is up in arms about this.
Geez, them fancy words, yet you wear blinders and are trying to deny cause and effect.

What is a democratic government but a representative of society (ok in the US it's mostly a representation of corporate money, but I'll return to that...), if you take society to its origins of a village of farmers, when one farmer gets sick, the others don't say "well, too bad, if he can't work, he's not going to eat.", instead they would share their food with him until he can work again (even if he doesn't, or if he can't work because of age instead of sickness, they wouldn't let him starve).

Nowadays everyone's just hungry for money that they're thinking "Fuck society, all I care about is getting paid.". It's amazing how the Republicans said for years they can't do handouts, if you don't work to live you're lazy, etc, but when millions lost their jobs, the GOP rulers suddenly agreed to give everyone money to survive. Oh, suddenly socialism is possible? It only took a global pandemic for the GOP to care about the citizenry they're supposed to serve.
It depends on circumstances.

If you have reason to believe that getting a new job is trivial, then sure. Take some time off if you can afford to.

If, on the other hand, you have no idea if you can get an equivalent professional job in one or two years and may involve moving (as is the case with MANY people in tech in spite of what people in the bubble may believe) then looking for a job immediately makes a lot of sense.
If you're just playing with script kiddie stuff and not ridiculous zero days, an up to date virtual machine should be just fine, make sure to keep your VM up to date. VM breaking malware is actually quite rare and usually patched quickly - this is the same stuff that keeps cloud providers safe where anyone can execute arbitrary code in a VM on their systems, if it's good enough for them, it's probably good enough for you, just make sure it has no access to your network.

VM detecting malware however is exceedingly common: plan to have to bypass basic VM detection, minimal knowledge of reverse engineering should make that pretty easy.

If you want/need to allow it access to the internet for dynamic analysis or botnet monitoring, I'd suggest looking into setting up a separate VM to route all the traffic over Tor or a commercial VPN provider and allowing it access only via that VM. This way if you manage to piss off any script kiddies you won't be the one who gets DDoS'd.

Nothing is perfect and if you're serious about this consider separate hardware, but if you're not quite that paranoid this setup is highly workable.
I did the same thing. Was an interesting experience, I’ll insist on the same next time.
Or... They actually were denied unemployment and their prior employment has no bearing on their current situation except that maybe they understand the fine print a little better?

Quoting,

"the whole point of crypto was to break the pyramid scheme of central bank planning and currency, yet here we are using it as a meta-pyramid scheme." and immediate following question:

"There’s a sense crypto has lost its way, but it also seems like our best hope of beating the current exploitative and extractive system."

In both there are unproven or unsubstantiated claims here. We're all vaguely aware banks lend fractions of deposits on the calculated risk that demand on those deposits never exceeds deposits. So what's the sense in which this is a pyramid scheme? And in what sense is central banking extractive?

Presumably the implied criticism is bank bailouts, and federal government's perpetual deficit spending as in the USA?
How do you know these aren't real DMCA notices? From the video it's a manual claim, which means it's not Content-ID. The email he received from the support agent also specifically states that they responded to a "complete and valid takedown notice." It also doesn't have the required information that YouTube's manual non-contentid system requires. And, finally, the creator issued a counter claim (stated at 2:40) and states the claimant's course of actions are now to either drop the claim or sue him.

All signs therefore point to this being a DMCA notice. If you have evidence to the contrary please provide it.
I think when the person above you said recommendations should be "valueless", they meant it should be a neutral, objective recommendation. Like you've tasked us with enforcing laws A, B, and C, and if you gave us powers D, E, and F it would make that easier in these ways.

Not like Barr's words: "For too long Section 230 has provided a shield for online platforms to operate with impunity. Ensuring that the internet is a safe, but also vibrant, open and competitive environment is vitally important to America." Because those are Trump/Barr opinions or value judgments about how good or bad the recent state of affairs has been and about what is supposed to be important to America.

Law enforcement isn't supposed to set the policy objectives. They're just supposed to implement them.
I use the official ones for both, but haven't even considered looking for others.

Jaeger is a little annoying in that what configuration the library accepts depends on the language. For example, you have to modify your code to emit B3 (zipkin-compatible) traces, which is annoying. Leads to PRs like this: https://github.com/grafana/grafana/pull/17009
Strange... I have this problem also and it started getting worse after surgery on my neck (decompression on cervical spine), but I chalked it up to other unknown neurological issues I've been dealing with over the years. I didn't know anesthesia was a contributor to poor memory. Sometimes it makes me severely depressed because I had the sharpest memory of anyone I know and I'm not exaggerating that; I could remember the most granular details of the most insignificant event. Now there are days where I can barely remember my kid's name. I'm in my 30s btw
If the mandate in the article goes through, most people will have a battery capable of powering their home for several days -- it'll just happen to be on wheels.
SML has always let you abstract over type-constructors using modules, and it was always routine to do so. You can express monads abstractly in this way, and some people have (Ocaml, but the SML is the same modulo syntax):

http://batteries.forge.ocamlcore.org/doc.preview:batteries-b...

But the sort of code you would write in Haskell gets very noisy without typeclasses, and it's just not an obviously good way to program in a language that's intended to be impure and strict.
I think its not as bad as you make it out to be. Any battery that will be used in flight might have nickel in it but that's about the only thing that's problematic. The anode will likely be silicon.

Pretty much all battery research is targeting materials that are common. The DoD made a large bet on Lithium-Sulfer batteries.

Battery recycling can be energy intensive if you go for the full metallurgical extraction. But pretty much all car manufacturing plants want to just 'disassemble' the battery and use other far less energy intensive processes to get battery grade materials out. Also, at least in the west, these factories are generally located in location where there is cheap green energy or at least there is the potential. That is both Tesla/Panasonic and Northvolt (Europe) plan.

With batteries you can reload the battery from your gravitational energy. That is actually quite a significant range extender but it might be a regulatory issue.
This is my default stance too, and the advice I give to everyone that asks. If you're no big fish enough or you don't have contacts, you can have a serious problem.

I remember some years ago Adsense cancelled the Meneame.net (largest news aggregator in Spain) account, and they had to resort to contacts inside Google to get it back again.

This was even before it got ridiculous, when there was some chance to get a human.

In the past 10 years I've seen enough instances of people screwed on Adsense, Youtube and other services.

So it's clear for me, too much risk to rely on google services, even more if money is on the line.
I'm glad someone is asking real questions. Where are the other sea lions?
Supreme Court justices do not have party affiliations. They were appointed by a president who is a member of a party, but that is all. They don't have to worry about offending that president, or that party, because they don't face re-election. They are independent - very deliberately so.

And Supreme Court justices go "against" the party that appointed them all the time. The most recent major example that I can recall with no searching: Justice Roberts voted with the majority to strike down Louisiana's restrictive abortion law.

Look, I'm concerned about how the election is going to go. I'm concerned about Trump claiming victory and fraud. (Of course, I'm also concerned about Biden claiming fraud/voter suppression if Trump wins.) But the GOP does not control the Supreme Court in the way that you fear.
I see you've rediscovered the publisher vs. platform dichotomy! Those of us who believe in free speech understand that people will say things we don't like, and further understand that the sacrifice of ignoring content we dislike is worth it for the greater principle.

I know this is difficult when people are saying things you believe to be untrue, but thus far nobody has come up with an alternative that doesn't result in censorship or end up having an unrealistically high moderation cost.
Maybe someone could build nice recommendations from multiple sources without hosting the videos?
That's unfortunate as "ibry" would at least be more pronounceable than "lbry". Trying to challenge YouTube with a very user-unfriendly name is an endeavour that's doomed to fail.
Per the video the creator did issue a counter claim, this is stated at timestamp 2:40. He then also states the course of action to follow is either they drop the claim or sue him - this is exactly the DMCA system. As far as I know YouTube's mechanisms do not end in a courtroom.
I’ve seen this type of behaviour before. To be completely honest, I have associated the release of new Google initiatives with headlines that say they are shutting down 12-24 months later.

The company I work for is currently waiting for a reply from google related to an increase in quotas for google sign-in.

The feature has not worked for more than 8 months now, customers complaining and all. We have done everything on our hands (all documentation sent, demo app showing the feature, video explaining all usages, etc..) and it's as good as shouting to the abyss.

We were recently evaluating alternative cloud providers (our main one is AWS) and we discarded GCP because of this.

Music channels are the hardest to survive copyright strikes even if you do nothing wrong and he's done well for years. Gareth, you're the reason I can play guitar so well and I'm so sad that some of the highest quality free lessons are dealing with this.
I think the prognostications of fear, uncertainty and doubt will end up wrong. Twenty years ago we had a controversial close election that had to be decided by the supreme court. Plenty of people did not want to see Bush in the white house and the country did not collapse.
Yes, I replied to your comment in which you linked to such an article. That is the "only Mozilla group that I know of" I referred to. It is worth noting (again) that those people were employees of the Foundation, not the Corporation, and so were not employees under Brendan ... a distinction that seems important, but was (misleadingly, I think) elided by press coverage and the comments of the employees themselves.
Oh that gives me hope! Thank you for sharing. I hope this sort of thing quickly becomes a standard around the world. I wonder if the web's Payment Request API has support for this? You'd think so from the name, but I can't find any details. It seems that it's just an API to hand over your bank password to the online store.

Edit: Wait, this requires giving the seller my home address along with my bank details? Maybe I misunderstand. I shouldn't even have to give my name or my bank details (which can obviously be used to personally identify me) - I should be able to generate a unique code (which includes the bank's id) that I give to the seller - like with the disposable cards (except that requires my name too - and they can draw as much money as they want, which is obviously bad).
wealth inequality is not a negative to quality of life.
I guess I should have spoken more clearly. There are real COVID deaths. Excess mortality is real. But a vast majority of the deaths classified as COVID deaths are not COVID deaths.

The problem is that if you die and are PCR-positive for COVID, that's a COVID death. We don't use that standard for any other disease because it's the wrong standard.

Once you get infected and recover, you still test PCR-positive for months afterwards even when you have NO viable SARS-CoV-2 inside your body. This is because the rt-PCR cycle threshold is set at 40-something when it should be 30 maximum. This means we're magnifying DNA by several orders of magnitude beyond where we should, and thus hitting on the presence of viral debris.

This is why, for example, George Floyd was PCR-positive despite having recovered from SARS-2 infection weeks or months earlier.

BTW, I also believe that lockdown increases COVID-19 mortality. Meaning if you do get infected you are more likely to die, since you've been stuck inside out of the sun, riddled with fear and anxiety, with almost all avenues for exercise closed down, etc. But like you said, in places that never locked down, like Sweden, there was still excess mortality.

BTW, I wish more people talked about life-years over lifes. Flu is a bimodal distribution; it kills the very young and very old. COVID kills the very old but not the very young. Look at the average age of death. I haven't ran the numbers but each COVID death probably only represents an average of 2, 3, 5 years of life lost. As opposed to a baby dying of the Flu, which would be 70+ years (picking the most extreme example of course).
Those are manual claims via YouTube's non-DMCA system. YouTube still has to respect DMCA claims and YouTube cannot impose requirements on DMCA notices. If it's a valid legal DMCA complaint, YouTube must comply. Google's policy is irrelevant here as it's not law.

The point of confusion here is that there's multiple ways to issue a copyright strike on YouTube. If this is via YouTube's internal mechanisms, then yeah this is bullshit. But if it's not and is instead a DMCA notice, and the evidence suggests it is a DMCA notice, then YouTube has no authority over the matter.
Given that the rights holders are litigious and the ones with the money, if I were Google I'd also be taking the content down rather than being a sitting duck waiting to get sued whenever a random user clicks the dispute button on their strike notification.

Of course, taking all other videos down and disallowing to open another channel ever, those are not measures which should be used until both parties agree that this has been settled or one of the two supplies a court document. But I don't think it's entirely unreasonable (debatable, sure; unreasonable... not sure) to make the video(s) in question invisible to everyone except the owner, copyright holder, and youtube employees until they agree it's settled or the court settled it for them.
In the section "Merging stacked Pull Requests" is mentioned:

> "...we must start merging from the top, i.e., the last opened pull request. Doing otherwise will result in a state where we cannot merge our pull requests anymore."

I think with the idea of PR re-targeting[1] that section could be enriched just to cover premature merging, accidentally or needed.

> Increasing the scale of reactors to "replace fossil fuels", increases the chances

Sure, from very small to ten times that, still very small.

> some of them even a dozen would cause environmental destruction for which no known method of cleanup exists

OK, we can accept that eventually one or two small regions will be not suitable for living. We already do a lot of that when we build hydro power plants for example. Hydro power plants consume a lot of land.

> May I call you lightgreen and other fission-proponents to move to Chernobyl or Fukushima and live there as an example to others?

Chernobyl, no, it is radioactive and dangerous. Fukushima surrounding is very safe, it was evacuated only because there were ignorant people in Japanese government.

Anyway, what's the point of the question? Nobody is supposed to live where it is not safe, like nobody lives in Chernobyl exclusion zone.
You're welcome to go live in rural areas where no one is going to bother what you do there.

At this point I’d like to see some sort of icon service that uses Machine Learning to take any icon I pick from, say, the Noun Project, and adjusts the fill, line weights, and roudness for me automatically. I’ve found the problem with most icon sets is that they’re always missing a few, and I’m not a designer, so making those myself is time consuming. If a machine could do it for me, I’d be loving it.
I just tried it because I thought your comment was really thoughtful. My situation is that I recently made a Facebook group for a small not-for-profit, and figured I'd see how it did at creating a new cover. It did fine :-)

I think my challenge is that I'd normally use Canva for this and Canva is ridiculously good, even with the free plan. Canva sucked the oxygen out of image customization, at least for SMBs with basic requirements. I don't know whether they even try to do automation, though, so that market may be unserved. Good luck!
It’s not whataboutism because the fact that the value of free speech was only granted to a privileged few addresses your argument that the USA once valued free speech and things have changed. If free speech was only granted to a privileged few why should we ever think of it as some societal value that was lost? It appears to me that the privileged few that saw themselves in the demographic gifted free speech are the the people who are angry their speech is criticized. We all still have free speech by the definition of the constitution but now there are decentralized public means to criticize the powerful. And there is popular sentiment supporting that criticism.
I was kinda interested until I hit the "100 LBC to get started", and realized it was a blockchain/cryptocurrency thing.

I've never heard this type of speech at a bar when I asked why somebody wasn't shown the door. I guess they didn't have a greater principle.

One core value that a platform could have is common decency, which is not the same as censorship, but it is given up even easier than what your argument calls free speech.
(Answering this with the context of personal, not work, because work is a Macbook and there's no option to choose)

For me the only real reason is hardware compatibility. I've had a couple of laptops with some sort of Linux by now and there's always quirks that make me not able to rely on it as a daily driver. My current personal laptop is a Lenovo Ideapad 720s, and I dual boot Win10 and Manjaro. In every Linux flavor I tried on this, it consistently crashes whenever I close the lid to put it to standby/suspend and reopen it. Additionally, it randomly freezes when I drive the cpu too hard. This really makes it such that I only boot into the Linux side when I want to do hobby dev work; and use the Windows side for regular household stuff (email, pay bills, etc.).

Admittedly maybe it's my fault that I don't buy a laptop with better Linux compatibility, like one that comes built-in with Linux such as the Dell XPS 13 Developer Edition.
