This generations designs are really weird to me, the PS5 does not feel like part of the same design lineage as PS2 and 4 (I always considered 3 the weird outlier and the ugly one). Honestly looks more like a descendant of the XB360 language. Feels such a strange departure when the PS4 had such a beautiful and striking design from aesthetics, brand and functionality.

From purely aesthetics I do think the new Xbox is the better looking and more modern looking machine, although the gigantic PS5 heatsink is going to help a lot with noise.

I think we should keep definitions of words consistent. Impersonation is not forgery or a dependency thereof. Those are different words for different terms.

This is a bit offensive against saas and mobile apps and has a wrong vision that software is easy and hardware is hard.

2. With competition, supersonic jets may also prove interchangeable, unless GP wants monopoly.
Does this blog post even contain evidence of the court's leaning? From what I gathered yesterday, the court was hesitant to shake up the software industry. This post seems to just contain the author's hunch/desire?

That’s not true. The camera use indicator light is hardwired into the camera circuitry and turns on when the sensor is powered up. There is no “software” involved in turning on the camera use indicator light.

Kind of crazy to see this on the front page. This is my project.

I started this project as an experiment, half to see if it would work for my saturday morning tech meetup, half to see if I could make spatialized audio conferencing work in the browser at all, as at the time I was considering switching my VR app at work from Unity to WebXR (which, ultimately, I did).

The repository has been a little neglected in the last few weeks, but that's because I've been working on redesigning a few parts to make it work better in both 3D and 2D and haven't settled enough yet to commit the work.
If the streaming services aren't offering you what you want, why not switch to downloading instead?

I never got into streaming music, but I have a pretty decent digital collection thanks to Bandcamp and Soulseek. My laptop holds all of it. My car has a USB port where I can plug in a stick and listen to whatever I want. I am even playing music on my stereo right now through a Bluetooth connection that is playing local files. It's great.

The biggest drawback with having a local collection is that it can be hard to keep things organized, especially if the music is coming from multiple sources. But that might be less of an issue than dealing with walled garden music players. YMMV.

> the compiler will tell you if your LEGOs fit together, but not if you've built a knife instead of a fork.

OK, let's stretch that metaphor a bit. A powerful type system like Haskell's is really a way of both restricting which LEGO(tm) pieces you can use and designing custom new ones. So when you design and write software in truly idiomatic Haskell, after getting all your types lined up there is no way to make anything other than a fork.

I was surprised that trump being hospitalized for covid hadn't been posted and submitted a link, but it was flagged.

Puzzled I checkd the FAQ, which led me to the guidelines and there I found the magic:

Off-Topic: Most stories about politics, or crime, or sports, unless they're evidence of some interesting new phenomenon. Videos of pratfalls or disasters, or cute animal pictures. If they'd cover it on TV news, it's probably off-topic.

So politics is mercifully off-topic by design.

I got really annoying billing from the garbage collection at my summer house (they did not allow me to pay automatically or per year) so I asked if I could cancel the collection altogether: To my surprise they said: yes, your house is worth less than $10K (it's worth $0 to them) so you may cancel it!

Which I immediately did, then for 2 years I used my neighbors garbage container and we shared the bill (she allowed me to pay once per year digitally).

But then she sold her house, and since you can't really ask your new neighbors if you can share garbage collection before getting to know them, I was stuck in a bind:

Trust me, nothing you read or do will ever be as good of a teacher as not having garbage collection! It's as hard as coding C/C++! ;)

So now I carefully plan my stay in the house, meticulously making sure the garbage I create is minimal and smell free so I can bring it back to the city!

Everything I invest in long term is either glass, cork, natural rubber, stain free steel or cast iron.

Plastic is going away as we speak since the polymers in the low quality oil that we extract today can't hold anything.

Fuels are also getting worse, the alkylate gasoline (basically distilled gasoline) I put in my lawnmower only lasts 3 months in a plastic container now (down from more than a winter only a couple of years back) so now I store it in metal jeep dunks.

In Sweden we are now since 2018 mixing ethanol into all fuels (gasoline and diesel) by law! I have a hunch covid lung problems are not getting better because of this!

50% of all the dead here lived at home (without jobs) between our largest highways with the most heavy traffic, the life vein of Sweden (intersection of E18 and E4 in the north of Stockholm, the 55/267/275 shortcuts aren't used by the largest trucks because the short radius of the ramps/roundabouts).

The other 50% where elderly (probably living near highways too, if I'm right).

Reuse, preservation and production is now the only thing you can do, consumption is dying.

That's quite a strawman. You're saying that those who disagree with tech unions are:

- Autistic

- Uneducated and naive ("real soon now," presumably said with a folksy twang)

- "Very young"

- Too cowardly or ethically naive to object to bad working conditions

Here's a more charitable possibility: Opponents may just not see the need at this point. Or they may dislike union culture.

Unionizing isn't all positive. There are costs that go beyond union dues. You're establishing what in many ways is a more exclusive culture. And you may end up stifling innovation. That shouldn't be a tool to be used indiscriminately.
I'm sorry, I understand the difference you're implying, but can't figure out how it matters in practice. How can I even differentiate if Monty opens the door to reveal a goat by knowledge, or by chance?

The one thing I'm curious about is what happens when a company that's just starting up blows way past the expected data that they're buying from the CDN. From the the looks of it (based on the one Amazon link) it looks like the overall price goes down, provided all the data transferred is the same market. Hopefully, that is the case rather than some kind of extravagant bill from Amazon!
I have a lot of examples, so why not show concrete examples? Because then those comments become the discussion and I don't want to go into a discussion that I've already said it's polarized, shaped as a popularity contest and thus rigged.

Maybe it's OK downvoting comments because they're factually wrong. But this has become downvoting comments because the downvoter has a different opinion. As soon as there is a very popular opinion, you can't even state facts that contradict that opinion without being downvoted.

I'm not here to promote some agenda. If I find uneasy to express an opinion, I just shut up, I don't lose anything personally.

Edit: if you really want, you can pass a comment through the barrier, with a lot of pre-emptive disclaimers and anticipating objections, seven paragraphs of socratic explanations and trying to sound so erudite as to seed a doubt to the knee-jerk downvoter. Too much work for simple stuff.
I'm with you on this.

I used to drive late at night and occasionally would catch an episode of Coast to Coast (a conspiracy radio show). It felt like a kind of performance art where callers would world-build together, each adding or changing or clarifying another bit. The end result was a complicated parallel world of psychics and aliens and illuminati woven together into a kind of cohesive narrative.

This 'FBI Impersonator' was just one individual adding to the existing conspiratorial narrative that Seth Rich was killed by Democrats because he knew too much.
That is exactly my point - effectiveness in role and communications should not be the main drivers. Desire to be at the job should be the main driver. If you don't want to be there, you effectiveness will suffer. But if you have a team who does want to be there, you can coach them to improve effectiveness and communications.

I agree about Zero Hedge up to a point, just from personal experience and seeing the kinds of articles it puts out .. but who is mediabiasfactcheck.com and why should I trust the unpaid interns* that work there to tell me what I should and shouldn't believe in, and who is and isn't credible?

EDIT:

From https://mediabiasfactcheck.com/about/

"Dave Van Zandt is the primary editor for sources. He is assisted by a collective of volunteers who assist in research for many sources listed on these pages."

All these fact checking organizations rely on young, inexperienced unpaid/low-paid interns to interpret complex situations and provide a final 'truth' score that is then used as some sort of authority. Insanity.
Minor thing: the number are right-aligned but the element doesn't have minimum size, so they still have a cascading layout instead of a straight alignment.

Even the pro-Google reporters I followed during the arguments yesterday concluded this appeared to be the lean. Both sides claim a ruling for the other side will be catastrophic to the software industry (both are wrong on this, mind you). But the questions seemed largely skeptical of Google's arguments, and one of the most notable claims the Google lawyer made was purely preposterous as a matter of law: That it would've been a lot more expensive to develop their own API and so they shouldn't have had to.

Reporters on Google's side of things seemed to think Goldstein blew conveying their side.

The habits run deeper than the recycling.

I am a tea and coffee drinker with a preferred mug and a travel mug which has a lid on it. If I go out for a stroll I fill the travel mug with coffee and take that.

Never do I wake up in the morning and think I need some drink in an aluminium can or plastic bottle. Nor do I wake up and wish my beverages were laced with corn syrup. Or advertised on TV.

If they stopped selling fizzy drinks tomorrow then I would not notice for a long time.

I am also out of the habit of drinking alcohol, however, when I do drink beer I prefer it to be in a pub where the glass is not just recycled but is re-used.

My additions to the recycling bins are small compared to those of a normal person that drinks beer, wine or other alcoholic beverages every day. I am also quite partial to citrus fruits so I have no aspiration to buy 'orange juice'.

For whatever reason I have not adopted the habits of buying these tin cans and plastic bottles in the first place. I am set in my ways and no amount of TV advertising will suddenly make me start the day with an energy drink or have a moment with Coca Cola mid afternoon. I just am not interested.

In the USA there is this culture of drinking fizzy drinks that the advertisers have been working on for decades. The default drink comes in a can or other single use container, not a preferred mug.

Separating waste might be a habit that needs to be worked on by some people, however, there is this deeper habit of using single use containers all the time.

People get caught up in this but WINE is a compatibility layer explicitly designed for interoperability, and is non-commercial to boot. It would have an extremely strong case for fair use. It also doesn't harm the market value of Windows.

Meanwhile, Google cloned the Java API to build a proprietary platform they have made billions of dollars on, and they explicitly weren't interested in interoperability. (Android doesn't run Java apps and vice versa.) Also, by destroying the market value of a Java mobile OS, it fails at least a third pillar of the four-factor test for fair use.
