Someone should teach Google management about the Lindy Effect, and how most people use it as a barometer for whether or not to take something seriously.
Interesting. I find that the usual four spaces give me the ideal indent length in proportional fonts.
Your complaint was about WebKit’s “refusal” to implement standards, where standards generally is whatever chrome announces and then throws onto the web with little to no thought about how the impacts users or user privacy.

As a framework, webkit has a stable abi as well which means electron apps would just work with updated system webkit, rather than needing to be rebuilt. Similar for JavaScriptCore vs V8. Unfortunately JSC’s API isn’t nearly complete enough.
Agreed on mistake. (Rosetta 2 version runs fine, afaict.)

I haven't stress tested the ARM version, but it is the one I'm currently using and I haven't had any issues so far.

>The downside of this design is that expandability is traded for performance. Users cannot simply add more memory to the configuration; they cannot plug more memory DIMMs into carriers as there are no carriers and DIMM technology isn't used.

Most users never add any more memory, even on machines that can do it, so that's fine...
Dont listen to the hype. Get your home automation setup with what you have today and get something working. You don’t need a Jetson or and Intel NUC to get started. My uptime was 100% with my home automation until a hurricane came.

Who gets to decide what definition of morals Facebook should use to answer these questions? Why should Facebook choose your particular moral framework to work with?

Yeah, I know, you're right. Everybody else is sure that their moral framework is right, too. So why does yours get to rule? What is your basis for saying that yours is right and theirs is wrong?

You may in fact be able to give a defense of your moral framework. That defense seems right to you, and to those who agree with you. But defenders of other moral frameworks can do that, too. Which self-consistent and defensible (per the adherents) moral framework should be the one to rule Facebook, and why?
Taking the president's attorney's word for it when there is no third party corroboration is like trusting Charles Manson's attorney when he says Charles Manson is innocent. Obvious conflict of interest on the source of the information.

Let's see some actual proof. So far nobody with any credibility, including the company that was ostensibly raided, claims a raid happened.

I tried ARM on Scaleway and the main benefit was network capacity. Performance was not so good.
Performance on ARM is bad compare to intel on GCP / AWS. The "incrediable" numbers are on M1 for Apple only which cloud provider don't have, also on servers Intel / AMD are still faster, no one cares about power consuption when renting a server.
There was so much promise around this site and others, it turns out all the hype was just a marketing funnel into a standard recruitment consultancy.

There’s many others out there like this, unfortunately you can’t really change the shape of hiring with a tech solution from a startup, they all will regress back to hard hitting recruitment once they have a sales team with targets.
Can it virtualize x86 operating systems? That's when it will be ready.

If you only use the latest version of <whatever javascript lib you're using> it's fine now, i guess.

If you maintain legacy apps, you now need an x86 box. And then you have to ask yourself, why buy a Mac too? They need to fix that somehow. They have enough money to sponsor something based on QEMU, for example. They're just cheap.

Recycling used fuel still doesn't make much sense. It's very expensive to recycle and new nuclear fuel is cheap. Storing the waste isn't technically difficult either. The total quantity of waste is tiny, but politically it's very difficult to deal with.
Thanks very much! The prototype was a console application I built a little under a year ago (Jan 2020). I've been chipping away at it on nights and weekends since then... maybe about 10 hours per week on average (some none, some double). So ~10 full-time weeks? 9 too many

They can then post racist rants until CloudFlare terminates their account on their platform. Like you know, that thing that actually happened to a specific racist ranting platform? (remrotSyliaD)

But I suppose those guys should have just made their own CloudFlare alternative...

Either way, I don't think corporations should do anything to censor speech, other than that which they are specifically ordered to "censor" by the government. For example child pornography, etc.

Perhaps corporations that handle water and electricity in Myanmar should shut down the water and electricity supply to those who advocate hate?

(And arguably, water and electricity is easy to get hold of on your own. Easier than your own publishing platform for sure, due to the natural monopoly of that business)
I had a really bad time with Fedora 32, used to Arch Linux: it always felt like RHEL unstable, with many breaking changes not documented (Fedora 32 needed some kernel and firewall hacks to work with Docker [1]) and have their own set of unstandard tools, still not very much documented. I spent 3 hours trying to understand how to compile a patched mainline kernel -- need to learn about dracut, koji, fedpkg, rpmbuild -- and none of these tools are documented clearly on a central, official place, but can be found through googling, reading mailing lists, piecing stuff together from deprecated wiki pages.

COPR [2] is interesting, like PPA, with the worst user experience I've ever seen. The patched kernel I was interested about was already compiled by somebody, and available through COPR, but good luck finding which repo has an up-to-date version of the package you're interested. The whole Fedora COPR site is more than useless.

I mean, the default experience was pretty good, but being the unstable branch of Red Hat means there's a lot of breakage, every release changes something big and you're constantly on the bleeding edge without the safety net of a top notch wiki like Arch Linux has.

If I remember correctly the M1 has around 600 reorder buffer entries, and I just checked and Anantech estimate the int register file at around 354 entries. That's still big, but not 600.
Does it then follow that it is their role to do not do anything? If I was a machete manufacturer and people in Myanmar were chopping minorities up with them, I would stop shipping there.
I mean... I wouldn't put my eggs in that basket. It's a product that I doubt makes them much money at all and it has a small (relative) user base. I know here on HN there are probably plenty of users of GV but I don't think a single one of my non-tech friends could even tell you what Google Voice is. From my perspective it's been on a slow march to getting shut down for years now.

* If air temp will never cross the dew point, you don't need a vapor retarder.

* Though the normal is "vapor retarder on the hot side", they can be on the outside of the wall assembly if condensed water can drain away. This is important for climates that have heavy heating and heavy cooling seasons, or for it's easier to put it on the outside.
Uh not to sound like a ton of bricks, but what is a "pullup capacitor"? You mean the connection to the chip's Vcc was a capacitor (effectively blocking any DC current, and not powering the chip), instead of just a trace?
> I think it's easy to hold this opinion when the views silenced are not your own.

It's also really easy to be a "free speech" absolutist[1] when you're not personally being persecuted.

As others have already mentioned ITT, there is a legal argument to be made that most opinions can be expressed in some form, but there is neither a legal argument to be made that they can be expressed through a particular medium, nor is there a moral argument to be made that every opinion is equally worthy of defense.

It's not about the question whether Google censoring LGBT content would be technically illegal, or violate "freedom of speech" - I think neither of these are necessarily true - but it would be morally wrong[2] and thus worthy of outrage.

[1] By that I mean people who think that "freedom of speech" means that you should have a right to speak your mind in every context without any repercussions. Freedom of speech is important, but so is protection from persecution, or the trustworthiness of reputable sources etc.

[2] The only way in which it wouldn't be morally wrong is if they decided e.g. to ban all political content altogether or something similar.
But there's still an argument against censorship, even given your starting point. They may at some point decide to ban content, and that may be a ban that you don't accept - that you think is wrong. If you're not going to like it when it's done to positions you agree with, then you have a reasonable basis for opposing it when it's done to positions that you disagree with.
I'm sorry to disagree with this.

First - 'Green New Deal' is a slogan, not anything material that helps fix underlying operational problems.

Second - we don't need to 'rebuild' most things, we need to fix, maintain.

Third - this is not an issue with 'green' or 'innovation' in the technical sense - it's about the efficiency of the bureaucracy.

Fourth - 'All the wasted money' is going into the pockets of seriously powerful vested interests - they are not interested in reform.

Are you ready for the political cost of taking on the Unions? Esp. public sector unions? They may not have their fingers in the pot, but they still likely a massive barrier.

What about exposing the fact that a ton of workers in infrastructure are in the country illegally? Who's going to 'clamp down' on that and pay the political price?

What about the fact that all these firms are massive political donors to the powers that be? How do we solve that one?

And fighting entities: SF is a tiny city. So is Palo Alto. So is Oakland. The 'Bay Area' needs coordination and nobody really wants to give up their little fiefdoms of power. So there are a lot of problems like that.

The issues are complex and a lot of it has to do with vested interests and power, not 'technology' or anything like that.
Base station with DJI support called Litchi. Runs on Android. Has a nice VR mode that auto integrates head tracking. Turn on, switch to VR mode, slide into your pick of cardboard style devices and off you go. It isn't fast enough response for racing, but is great for inspection/maneuvering a drone around inside and out of a crowded facility (slowly) without line of sight.

I use an old samsung galaxy for the ground station/dispaly. Works excellently for the purpose and cost me nothing.

For work I use a DJI mavic pro with updated firmware to remove some pesky restrictions and the DJI phone home functions.

If you really want a roll your own solution, check out Ardupilot with a Navio II flight controller. This will let you construct a full flying telepresence solution to your personal specifications. Embedded Linux and ROS built in too!
I really struggled with podman, a bunch of containers (I cant remember which ones) didn't work, and build tools choked as well.

I bought the quest out of curiosity with low expectations. I’ve tried a few of the games, many of which were novelties but have been blown away by Eleven Table Tennis. It replicates maybe 98% of what it feels like to play ping pong and I’ve convinced at least five other friends and family to get a set so we can catch up, chat, and play some ping pong. I play it almost daily now and use it instead of phone calls to catch up with my dad.

Why Americans Call Turkey ‘Turkey’ (2014)
It's a thing where I live too (Tunisia). After the revolution, the government became loose and dogs multiplied. Where I live, there is a pack of 40-50 in front of the building. They survive on trash and some neighbors feed them regularly, so they are well fed and friendly. Most people here are not married or don't have kids, plus most of them have cars. I would not be comfortable having a kid walking around with these dogs (although they are friendly so far).

Yes, it's all a game. The minute they're in power, it's spend spend spend. The minute they're out of power, suddenly the deficit is a huge deal. How many actually care about the deficit is questionable, but it's clearly very low.

> The easy solution is for the well-kmown IP to be in the same pool that a major CDN uses, so it can't be blocked without major collateral damage.

I can imagine that there are players who are OK with that collateral damage. In the end it will end up exactly like when the cloud providers disabled TLS domain fronting.

> even though it will improve privacy for no downside for most people

It won't. The big DoH providers will have nice behavioral data, on computer level, i.e. NAT is no longer a problem, they can distinguish separate device due to TLS session.

Privacy-wise, it is net negative. Few big companies will be getting data they didn't have until now.

> What "trouble" does it cause anyway?

You don't know, so you will use scare quotes then?

It has problems with DNS zones that only some resolvers can resolve, and/or are under ACLs so only local clients can resolve them. Your local network knows about them, the global ones don't.

It has problems with split-horizon names. So now, instead of getting internal IP for a service, you will be getting external one, so your traffic will go to router and back.

It has privacy implications that you didn't even began to think about.

Most networks are not coffeeshop wifi, where such behavior would be OK.
I think all I had to do to get it working, now that the USB boot feature is out of beta, was to boot Raspberry Pi OS from an SD card and do a normal "apt upgrade". This automatically downloads and updates the firmware[1].

After that (and possibly rebooting?) I could run raspi-config and enable USB boot[2] there.

It becomes a self fulfilling prophecy eventually. As Google shuts down random services during fits of pique, they build a reputation for being mercurial and unreliable. And then when they actually need to see significant numbers to justify large projects (Stadia, GCP), they struggle to pull in users because nobody trusts them. Google eventually pulls the plug due to low adoption, and all consumers biases against relying on Google are validated.
Thanks for further explaining. It seems like we’re working off different facts.

This says 25% to 80% of infected are asymptomatic. So it’s pretty awesome if this study supports the idea that they’re not very contagious.

https://www.healthline.com/health-news/50-percent-of-people-...

BTW. I’ll read through the original study I posted to see how they handle presymptomatic.

And you certainly raise a good point that there’s no way to know is you’re presymptomatic.
AMD 5600X vs. Apple M1
In the following I assume that the scores are indicative of the performance of both machines.

At first, I was disappointed that apple's tiny SoC was beating my desktop computer (I have a 5600x running linux). Then, I realized that I am looking at this issue backwards.

My cobbled together system is as good as Apples custom SoC. As long as all players have access to TSMC we are going to continue to see amazing produces from AMD (and others) that are competitive with Apple. I don't think there is any hope of beat Apple for performance based on form factor, but there is a hope that there will be equally good hardware without the restriction imposed by Apple and others.
Sure, that's not an unreasonable position to take. But I also don't think it's unreasonable for someone to object to some instances of censorship and not others. It's certainly not fallacious to take such a position.
OP mentioned USB SSDs, not SATA/M.2 SSDs.

> Then don’t take your ethical values from video games?
This Puritanization of all art and entertainment is disturbing.

The point is more that the game developers were trying to whitewash and "purify" the game, and that these efforts results in a worse game, that is less accurate, and also problematic.

If you are upset about the PC police causing problems in your video games, then you should be mad at the game developers for their decisions to do that.

I first began running linux at home in 1995. It was a wild ride for a few years but I eventually returned to Windows and then OS X. But back around 2013 I got back into Linux on the Desktop. First Ubuntu, then Arch, and now Fedora for the past three years. Just set up my third Fedora machine. With the Cinnamon window manager, it's honestly better than the experience provided by OS X. Plus I can put it on a $200 netbook and use it for real-world work, which I did for a year around 2015.

No. If the NSDAP still existed (let's leave aside the fact that this would be illegal in itself), they should not be allowed to post their drivel to FB.

You can't be serious.

Actual religions have sets of ideas (rules, creation-myths, alternative epistemologies, etc.), whereas atheism has none. The term literally means "without god(s)" (which was a defining feature of religions by those who coined the term).

It is an absence of belief (at least in the way the term is commonly used; There are "atheistic religions" in the sense that they don't have a deity).

Atheism is to religion as being silent is to speaking – and you're essentially claiming it's just another way of speaking.

I find it somewhat surprising that we haven't seen more adoption of the redhat docker (lowercase d) replacements after Docker (uppercase d) started pushing some of their monetization efforts.
