I have observed that basically no one thinks about backups until they've had at least one incident where they've lost something important to them and were unable to recover it. The actual number varies from person to person, but I've never seen less than 1, though I have seen more than 5 on several occasions.
You’re not reducing operating costs to zero. Enslaved people are still people, they must be fed, housed, etc. And while reducing the operating cost of say cotton production can make that business bigger, taking those enslaved people out of the market for consumption makes those other businesses smaller.
How do you make the backups then?

I think he probably went for watercooling first because it has the promise of silence. A fan on a video rig sounds horrible, and probably sounds horrible too. :)

It's funny how all the pc watercooling awareness is spreading. There are lots of videos about the controversial process of applying thermal paste.
His practical business solution to it is quite sensible and likely overlooked: "Matt also believes that Canon could have designed the camera to dump the heat toward the bottom of the camera and then sold a separate base attachment for videographers that provides vastly extended recording times."

In the video he more specifically describes how it could be possible to use the mounting point's metal base to transmit heat to a mounted cooling attachment.

I lived in Geneva from 26 to 28 years old, as mentioned in other replies, come back to Switzerland every time I manage to, and have several good Swiss friends.

I also had to help a friend of mine newly moved into Baden in 2018 to settle in, so I know what bureaucracy she had to face until she was 100% done with everything and could carry on with her life having a proper bank account, address, mobile phone, internet, new car registration, the whole package.

Thanks. Will have a read.
If I understood right - this is a "white box" reimplementation of the real Turbo Pascal, which uses the same algorithms and structures and control flow as the real one (and therefore should be bug-for-bug compatible) but is written in Pascal instead of assembly? That is, the "DX" argument there isn't actually passed in register DX, but it represents a function call in real Turbo Pascal that passed the same semantic contents in register DX?

I have spent a lot of time with people in the psych ward the fact of the matter is everyone has a truth and that truth in their life drives them. Might be a religion might be quote on quote conspiracy theories. That's how powerful conspiracy theories are that they're a driving force on par with religion they require faith sometimes leaps of faith in the label itself was designed to sound shocking. It's not shocking we just all have different driving factors if diversity really is our strength then we need free thinkers we don't need everyone thinking the exact identical thing that CNN is telling us.
For (A) and (B) it is possible for that to become part of the process. It's possible for individual citizens like you and me to count the votes, verify electric signatures, verify a reproducible build, etc.

Of course this level of accountability may never happen. There may be some motivation to keep a few gray areas on the side closed so a few fake votes can be injected here and there.

> I don't know how you could claim general or special relativity are simpler than Newtonian physics

Careful there! You cannot compare both theories in isolation from observation. Newtonian theory fails to match observation if high velocities or big masses are involved.

In order to "fix" that using just Newtonian physics, we're back to figurative epicycles.

Taking observations into account, SR is simpler than Newtonian physics in that it has a greater predictive power.

Remember that if you come up with something simpler than SR it also has to match observation at least as well as SR.

Why are OTA updates so expensive? The price isn't prohibitive in other fields. I don't see how adding more cars would make that process more expensive, as if anything I'd expect a lot of the cost to come from QA and with more cars that cost gets spread out better.
Don't take financial advice from anyone here. The problem is not the advice given... But that you have not provided enough information or inputs into the calculation.

How old are you?
Where do you live?
What are expenses and costs where you live?
Do you have other sources of income?

You should hire a financial advisor or planner versed in these matters. More than anything they are behavioral coaches who will tell you what you can and can't do.

You should build an annuity calculator in a spreadsheet and add conservative growth assumptions and agressive spending assumptions where you may have unexpected medical expenses for example.

That only works because Haskell can't really express it. That is, if you could write Haskell code that checked that equality, that equality wouldn't be enough, because you could write a function `mapStrange foo [x]` that is equal to `map` if `foo = id` and is something else otherwise.

But since you can't compare 2 functions for equality, and you can't compare two arbitrary values for equality, then yes - your informal requirement is enough togethet with the type to force the function to be `map`.
My completely uneducated guess is that this is probably similar in approach to ‘Vantablack’, in that you'll have to orient the scales a certain way relative to each other and the base. So they'll need to be likewise ‘grown’ on the surface, in a slow and very expensive process. (Though apparently there are VB variants as spray paint, presumably with lower absorption.) Of course, this is after someone even figures out how to make such scales and slap them together on the base.

This pavillion is the largest object on which VB was used to my knowledge: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xxkvKJmlyHQ

However, it's hard to imagine VB being grown on it instead of sprayed, and the next-largest candidate seems to be the BMW X6.
I would. Generally would also have a cluster spin up/down to run via the ci/cd platform.

Almost everything I've written for the last 6 years is with tools that are mostly cross platform.

The biggest issues I've had in that time is the prerequisites for rabbitmq in Windows, and building apps using sqlite on embedded.

I think the may be a couple hurdles in the next year, but that apple going to m1 will be the catalyst for much more flushed out arm support in the docker ecosystem. Rpi has done a lot of this already.
One possible reason for an increase in such complaints pointed out in Twitter seems quite plausible: people who ordinarily would have tried a scent in the store, didn’t smell much, and just moved on to a different candle, are now ordering them online instead and discovering the lack after the sale.

So I imagine there are multiple reasons for the trend, but it’s still interesting.

New Variety of Apple Discovered by Wiltshire Runner
A few years ago, I went into one of those mall stores that sells candles, lotion, etc.

I could smell the very first candle I picked up. After that the cacophony of smells was apparently too much for me and I couldn't smell anything at all until after I left the store.

So I guess it could be that they all have coronavirus, but it seems just as likely that they've all been cooped up inside their houses with probably overly filthy air and their noses just can't take it anymore.

Then all of a sudden everything the CDC ever taught me flew out the window overnight and they started editing manuals to sound ridiculous.

Pijul – The Mathematically Sound Version Control System Written in Rust
You talk as if developers don't ruthlessly prioritize and gatekeep too. Departments have to do this all the time because we have limited resources and shit needs to get done. The real problem is that IT people (and that includes developers) have a nasty habit of looking down on anyone that isn't them and believing themselves superior in every way, so they're unwilling to empathize or reason with the people who's jobs their policies are interfering with.

Computers were more open and about as powerful for a brief period a few years ago, say 2012-2018. They were certainly more open for the many decades between when PCs came out and now. We didn’t just jump straight from time shared mainframes to modern PCs...

Yes, great developers were much more powerful than cogs in the machine until recently. Being a dev was not a mainstream, sexy, or high paid career until recently. So the kinds of people the profession attracted were quite different.

Maybe you feel anything with the words late-stage capitalism can be discarded immediately. Maybe it sounds hysterical or anti-progress. But we certainly can make technology better for non technical people without taking away configurability and freedom for experts to truly own their machine as well.

It's totally okay not to have a "thing". In other words, not to specialized. Know the pros and cons of it though. Also, as a few other people point it out. Part of it is branding. Peter Thiel touches on it in this great interview: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nHXEjdYwoYE
>I like to be able to spot the idiots and know who they are and where they stand, not to put them underground where they inevitably fester into violence in their bubbles.

This idea, that "sunlight is the best disinfectant" does not seem to have much evidence going for it. In fact, surely we're owed some justification for the principle - does exposing widespread misinformation correct the bad effects before it was exposed? Some harm has already been done, and I'm not sure how that is justified by the principle.

I think that principle is lacking in empirical evidence, and theoretical justification for the harms it allows, which seem to be based on a shaky idea of the greater good.
It should be “No ads, no tracking, no content, only your data!”.

Key value of Twitter is community and huge user base, I don’t see any point of using any copycat if there’s no one to follow. Same thing is with mastodon, sure there are few communities of devs and other wizards, but most of them are furries and other edgy and crunchy stuff for niche communities. And, that’s fine, at least for them, but most of the world just want to follow their loved artists or other creators.

Me and my colleagues came up with an abstraction called conductors for the orchestration problem. Short version is that when you have some dependence on multiple resources being in a particular state before creating or updating yet another resource, use a conductor. They observe multiple resource kinds, and operate a FSM internally. State transitions happen upon receiving an event from an observed resource. The logs of the conductor make it easy to debug dependency problems, because you can easily see that your conductor’s FSM is in a particular state, waiting to see some number of a particular resource.

The other principles we developed are “controllers” only control one resource and all resource updates for a resource kind must be serialized through a coordinator. Our paper has much more detail: A Cloud Native Platform for Stateful Streaming, https://arxiv.org/abs/2006.00064
I don't know if there is a formal term for the concept, but it seems like there is a quality of skilled authorship where an author's own prose impresses themselves to the degree they believe their own selectively edited metaphorically enriched version of their voice over than their actual, humble I-might-fart-my-tooth-is-sore base reality. They get gobsmacked by their own writer's voice and then their personality morphs to some monster. History has pivotal personalities that seem to fit this pattern of moderately intelligent authors being gobsmacked by the power of editorship, which causes them to elevate their personality into Uberman Insanity.
This strikes me as the FOSS equivalent of trying to piss off the volcano.

>This kind of problem means it's time for a recall for any car I've ever owned, and I think that holds for the majority of the industry today, still.

Why do you think that is?
So, perhaps it makes sense in your industry to go all-in on Julia.

Personally, I'm still burned by the time they announced 1.0 mere days after announcing 0.7, and thus meaning that literally nothing in the ecosystem worked at 1.0.

If that transition had been managed better, then I would be much more comfortable evangelising Julia now, but it didn't and the decisions behind this make me incredibly uncomfortable in adopting it anywhere where I'm on the hook for failures.

Additionally, Python has libraries for everything, and is known (badly at least), by almost everyone in Data Science/programming. When your modelling is a part of a larger project, this matters a lot (and is why I no longer write my production code in R).

That being said, I really like Julia, and look forward to checking it out again, hopefully with less breakages in the future.
I am pretty sure carrier-branded phones were a thing in Central Europe (Slovakia, Czechia, Austria, Germany etc) for many years. As the owners of carriers were also French (Orange) or Spanish (Telefonica/O2), I suspect they present there too. So no, not backwards at all.

I still don't understand what you are saying. When you say "Who is "they"?". Are you saying Google and other tech giants? They have huge advertising networks. But that is a total guess since what you are saying is still very unclear. It looks like you don't want to be clear about this. I'd really prefer you to just say it, rather than all this cryptic stuff.

But since you go on about advertising, that is a way for groups that want it, is to be able to force people to listen to their message. This robs people of their agency to listen to what they choose to. Censorship also doesn't allow people to listen to what they choose to. This makes advertising and censorship very alike. They both result in a persons loss of freedom to choose what information they get.

It's pretty easy to wrap the typescript compiler however I've not seem many people use pure TS like that. Mostly people want to use webpack and TS together. Unfortunately webpack doesn't expose anything that would allow us to incrementally build a webpack bundle.
I think it's more likely the authorities removed it.
