And likely even a Pi4 couldn't take full advantage of an NVME drive except in specific workloads or setups. I'd use a SATA M.2 if needed to save 40% of the cost on the same size SSD. Or just a random thumb drive I have around.

The Pi4 compute unit has a PCIe x1 slot, I think, and that could better put an NVME drive to use. But at that cost, for the drive and Pi, I don't see it being widely used outside of hobby or home use.

I'm excited about this and how the official Pi4 firmware now supports USB boot. Maybe if you used the Pi to run a NAS and wanted the NVME drive as accelerated cache (it can do H.265, 4kp60 decode, and H.264)?

But can a Pi even process an NVME drives bandwidth via it's CPU/etc or Gigabit Ethernet/USB 3.0/GPIO add on?

Edit: This guide is basically 1. Put SSD in adapter and 2. Set up USB boot then clone SD card to SSD. How is this article not just a forum post like the dozens of others that provide the same information and process?
> Who gets to draw the line between obeying the science...

The science should! Here's what the CDC says for high intensity activities:

"Masks should be used in public settings, but if you are unable to wear a mask because of difficulty breathing during high intensity activities, choose a location with greater ventilation and air exchange (for instance, outdoors versus indoors) and where you can keep at least 6 feet from others during the activity."

The trails and parks around here (North Carolina) have enough traffic and people who believe "I do what I want" that I don't feel comfortable visiting these places period.
Hah, I remember a BA flight (on which I was thankfully not on) which decided to return back to Heathrow 6 hours into a 12 hour flight to Tokyo for that exact reason.

Imagine flying 12 hours in a plane only to be back where you started.

I'd be curious to also see research done using (1) calcium serum levels and (2) bone density, comparing meat-heavy, meat-light, pescetarian, ovo-lacto vegetarian, and vegan diets.

https://bmcmedicine.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s1291...

Reading over the actual study, it looks like they attempted to control for lifestyle confounders:

> All analyses were stratified by sex, method of recruitment, and region of residence, and adjusted for year of recruitment, ethnicity, Townsend deprivation index, education level, physical activity, smoking, alcohol consumption, dietary supplement use, height, and in women menopausal status, hormone replacement therapy use, and parity.

But they don't mention if the controlled for activities that bring greater risk of breaking bones. Eg rock climbing or boxing carry greater risk of fractures than eg swimming or weight-lifting, despite being grouped into the same "physical activity" bucket.

They do cite other work done which examines bone density and calcium serum levels in the populations they discuss. See citations 2 through 7.
If you look on YouTube for something like "Flash CS4", you can find numerous videos showing what the Flash authoring tool was like. I never found it all that much of a pleasure to use, but for people who were good at animation, it was a fairly powerful tool. (I did Flash for a few years and spent most of my time writing ActionScript 3 in FDT, which was built on top of Eclipse; I left the animation stuff to people more capable in that department!)
Perhaps. Seems to me that if that was the principal reason for the change, then the transition would be smoothed over several years.

Often, most parts will just plain fail to fit, and fit exactly one way.

But the keys for the different type of M.2 slots are not large enough on M.2 SATA vs M.2 SSD to prevent them from mixing up. It's easy to force, and forcing it will be fatal for the device.

I know this from an expensive lesson I learned, long ago :(
I am morally opposed to a lot of things. First and foremost, violence that is not in self-defense. So that covers wars, genocide, mass conscription, and taxation. Basically the modern state in general. But that is real life I'm talking about, which has nothing to do with what goes on within the confines of a video game. I'll go back to the original quote:

"For your actions in Panzer General will also lead to the deaths of millions, at only one more degree of remove at best."

Your actions, or the actions of anyone else in Panzer General will not lead to a single death, let alone millions. It makes no difference to anyone else but the person who is playing the game. If you enjoy playing the game, then great, have at it. If playing as a German General makes you uncomfortable then that's fine too. I really don't see any ethical issue here at all.
Oof, I'm not going near that thing without a geiger counter and a hazmat suit. Probably just someone's idea of a practical joke, or somebody's religious thing. But you never know. Could be a test of some kind of space-to-earth power transfer system. Or some alignment system.

I think there are better ways to encode that in API design that are less ambiguous.

For example perhaps having a function or some other means to compute required buffer size, in a way that makes such padding requirements relatively opaque to the caller.

To me it is the most logical option. It really comes down to what we pay for. If we order the cheapest possible unit price from China(or anywhere else in the world), we can't really expect them to care or even have the best people work on it. As clearly we don't either.

Just look at IoT crap produced around the world. Are they inept, or is security an after thought?

Yes, you shall not be perjuring yourself.

It is indeed lopsided that the counter notice must include "A statement under penalty of perjury that the subscriber has a good faith belief that the material was removed or disabled as a result of mistake or misidentification of the material to be removed or disabled." The initial notice only has "under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed", but everything else like "A statement that the complaining party has a good faith belief that use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law" has no threat of penalty.

But you don't have to be right about the mistaken removal, just honestly believing you're right about it at the time you file the counter notice.

Oh, and you'd be surprised on how many people perjure themselves in the initial takedown notice, knowing they are not in fact authorized by copyright owners, often even claiming they own the copyright when they know they do not.
I don't know how to estimate how much Google uses other's OSS, but they certainly have generated quite a lot. Chromium, Android, TensorFlow, Go, WebM, Kubernetes, and Angular are no small contributions.
Not really. For another example, look at Debian Linux. They have several million lines of code supported on multiple architectures. And Apple didn't do this from one day to the next, they have the OS running on ARM CPUs in one version or another for more than 10 years.

> But hey - we have to keep the restaurants in business...at the expense of prolonging the pandemic.

Could you elaborate on what "prolong" means? Say we shut down the entire country for 4 weeks and get the virus under control. Is the pandemic now "over" (i.e. no longer prolonged) and we can reopen restaurants again at full capacity and just treat individual outbreaks? Or is it going to be cyclical where cases start rising again and the governors start cracking down again ad infinitum? For island nations that can control who goes in and out it's one thing, but it's going to be very hard for USA or EU which has open borders between states to control spread of contagious disease.
I don’t want to stand up for PE too much but if their whole thing is explicitly targeting weak or underperforming businesses, they’re just another symptom. It’s like saying “people who recently spoke to a doctor are more likely to die” (without mentioning that sick people tend to go to hospitals and talk to doctors).

What proportion of users in each category actually wanted the things you listed in your first paragraph though? With the Arm laptop as an example, I'd take a stab and guess that less than 10% of laptop users even know what ARM means. Aside from that, I tend to agree on your point that Apple seems to hold greater relative power in trend-setting and I think the achievement is through the power of their brand coupled with strong marketing and relatively good user experience to boot.
I believe the other salient factor is the coefficient of my-immune-system-tends-to-implode per unit of viral load, which may or may not vary a lot between different people. Although at this point maybe it's hard to tell if the different outcomes are more to do with differences in processing the virus or differences in magnitude of viral load at time of acquisition.

I would sort of agree. I think that the tenure process creates a lot of weird incentives. That being said, I think another part of the system that is at least as important to fix is admissions. Right now we're admitting people to PhD programs that we know the system can't absorb. Those same people go on as postdocs, and it's not really until the faculty stage where people get filtered out. One of the reasons I left academia after my PhD was that I didn't want to have to wait another ~10 years to know whether or not I had a job. If the PhD -> Postdoc transition had been a strong indicator of future success, I might have stayed in the system, but as it's currently structured there's very little information gain in getting a postdoc.

If they really want to align incentives it makes sense to switch to time-of-use based pricing like electricity providers have done. Since most of the cost is building infrastructure to support peak traffic, suggesting that consumers shift their usage pattern to be off-peak would be a notable cost benefit.

The obvious problem besides the added complexity for users is that I suspect there is relatively little "background" traffic usage. Almost all of it is people watching streaming video or interactive downloads. I doubt things like software updates that can be scheduled add up to much.

It would be interesting though. I wonder if it would lead to services promoting their download options more (example auto-download likely videos every morning).
How on earth are they making money, then?

Sort-of. You can compile it if you have the source. Commercial software (binaries) are often unable to be run outside of their target cpu and flavor of Unix though. Apple is a little different in that FAT binaries can contain multiple architectures and even binaries that are not built for the current arch are automatically run in an emulated environment.

Solaris had a mechanism where one could place binaries in arch-specific folders (eg: /bin/sparcv9) and even per-arch library paths but it was definitely opt-in with varying levels of adoption.

I’ve also seen some pretty fun hacks to start qemu in Linux for certain non-native executables. Still not nearly as complete/smooth/user-friendly as the fat binary/library approach.

In Massachusetts, it's very common although not universal. (And many, like myself, tend to pull up a gaiter when I get near, especially mask-wearing, other people.)
I don't think you can accurately make simple analogies like this. What is discussed here is more like what speed you should be going if you driving path intersects a pedestrian's path (possibly in a crosswalk). Then there is a difference between someone stopping and seeing the pedestrian is very far away and turning right vs. someone doing a 45 mph and driving within a few feet of a pedestrian. Different drivers and pedestrians will have different expectations.
People have been confusingly propagandized about propaganda. That technique for manipulation has been around for a very long time, convincing people that your lies are priveledged secrets. It checks so many boxes for fufilling emotional needs with utter bullshit. It flatters the believer and gives a scapegoat to mean they don't need to try to understand nuanced issues, trade-offs and the cure being worse than the disease. It also provides an easy answer that doesn't mean admitting to yourself that your friends and family have frankly gone far beyond differences of opinion to become outright terrible people.

I have personally concluded that there is no practical difference between credulity and corruptability - both make it easy to get them to support and commit evil. I can only conclude that a lack of critical thinking is a moral flaw in itself as strange it may sound at first blush. But really if greed can get people to do bad things nobody would deny that it is a moral flaw so why should credulity be any different?
But the easiest group to exploit, also with least negotiating power.
Yes. They may already have more raw brainpower than us but they live in environment where they don't have enough tool materials for sufficiently useful tools to evolve precise manipulation skills.

Pulling the mask up and down is unsafe for several reasons. First of all, you touch your face. Chinese scientists insist on fomite transmission being real. Second, more importantly, you need your mask tightly fit, to protect others. If you keep fiddling with it, moving up and down, it wont be tight after second or third time you do this. And from the social point of view it is just a bad signal. Period.

> It's extremely important to most people. We go out of our way to look good. Just look at any shopping street. Clothes, makeup, gyms, etc.

It's a continuum, and I don't think it's 'extremely important' to many people at all in my experience.

Far more people are not shopping and don't go to gyms, and shopping and gyms serve other purposes too. Also, when someone does those things to enhance appearance it doesn't mean it's 'extremely important' to them; I watched a sporting event over the weekend, went grocery shopping, and I post on HN, but none of those tings are extremely important or even important to me (beyond avoiding starvation).

It's not binary; humans cover a very wide range - much wider than you or I experience or imagine.

> distance themselves from RMS

Why wouldn't Guix just leave the RMS's GNU Project then?

GNU is a collaboration of free software projects that was started and is lead by Richard Stallman. Remove the leader, and what's left is just a collection of projects sharing the GNU brand. And it looks to me that this is what the Guix maintainers are trying to do: reduce the GNU project to a mere formality (participation in it would mean no more than a simple declaration of support for Free software), keep the GNU brand, position Guix as THE GNU operating system.
It seems like you're comparing the cost of serving data out of a purpose built location to the cost of transporting it to and from an individual person. Not saying Comcast or Verizon are offering good or bad per GB prices just that it seems you're comparing the cost of your apples (unless your side project is a LOT larger than I'm assuming) and then saying the oranges are mispriced as a result.
No they should not, because to wear the mask all the time is much easier than to stay home all the time. Unless you are some entitled narcissist or something.
That's not a Federal issue. States might not be able to run deficits in quite the same way that the Federal government can but if States need additional revenue to support favored businesses then they can certainly raise taxes.

Some state governments such as Florida allow restaurants to remain open. We can debate whether that is a good policy from a pandemic control standpoint, but why should Floridians pay Federal taxes to support restaurants that were forcibly shut down by a California county?

Not really. If you really want to, you can probably compile about everything, as hat just needs header files that declare what functions used to exist.

Those are easily copied over from old systems, once you have found them. You may have to redefine some basic types, but that’s all doable.

However, I can’t think of _any_ function defined in a library on modern 64-bit Mac OS that even has the same name as that of one in classic Mac OS, so linking would be impossible.

No, you can eliminate much of the risk by isolating with your household, occupation permitting.
