I must say after using Microsoft Teams...

M$ is back, baby.
I would invest in them if I invested in huge-market-cap companies.

After IBM, Microsoft became the company selling Windows and Office for businesses. Huge cash cow. They lost that for a while due to the iPhone and Google and stuff moving to the Web and mobile.

Now they’re back.

The fonts and aesthetics remind me of using Windows apps 20 years ago. This ain’t Google. Small, crisp verdana, tahoma or whatever.

Meetings done right.
Office - Word, Excel - integrated. Tons of plugin support.

Compared to Slack, this is way better. And compared to Google Suite, well... Teams is faster and actually feels like a product teams would live in day-in and day-out. No need for slack, zoom, gmail and a hodgepodge of other things.

Microsoft also has a huge cache of businesses who would literally onboard their entire company and pay monthly recurring revenues. They have successfully gotten back into the Microsoft Office business.

Except this time it’s recurring revenues and on the mobile too. Even if Microsoft doesn’t sell mobile devices. They are going to eclipse Google with businesses if Google keeps doing its cute slow Web based interfaces, imho.

And I say this as a person who has not used Windows for 15 years, who hardly ever used Office or Office 360 until literally trying Teams as part of a consulting gig.

It’s amazing. And it’s very Microsoft.
The term "Central Europe" makes sense when talking about stuff common to Central Europe, in particular Germany. Otherwise, the term you want here is Eastern Europe.

And yes, there is this particular kind of people who feel offended by this. Largely the same people who get offended by gay marriage. Why should we care?
As I said in my post, I'm talking about a notion of "privacy" broad enough to encompass both abortion and freedom from electronic surveillance.

Scalia believed in protection from government trespass on private property. That's a sort of "privacy" but its based on property rights, which was the original understanding of the fourth amendment.
Because the Netherlands are tax haven. Nothing to be proud of.
For me, stress causes more eating and weight gain, and exercise relieves stress. I expect this is at play in the 300 minutes recommendation.
Proteome map identifies more than 90 percent of all human proteins
> as essential to mankind as food and water

I think we all know this is nonsense. I've got a couple of friends who never listen to any music. I don't have any friends who never eat or drink.
I am simply happy that Amazon has not embraced the ridiculous trend of low-information density with large amounts of whitespace.

Give me a cluttered UI that has everything available any day.
It is already a commodity right ? The big cloud providers already provide managed k8s. GKE, EKS, AKS, DKS; Google, Amazon, Azure, Digital Ocean.

You can even turn your devbox into k8s via minikube.

It’s a great abstraction

If you want your opinion to be taken seriously or be seen as credible, you should probably back it up of justify in some way, rather than just stating it as if it is a fact. The thing is, I agree with you but I understand that it is not the general opinion of most people. I think it is important to explain and justify the very significant shift in thinking about what is “the mind”.
Right, inserting N items takes O(N), which is what I said.
That's not the same thing. With Airpods, I can start a video on my iPhone, switch to my iPad for a bit, walk over to my Mac and listen for a bit, and then turn on the Apple TV and watch a show and they switch to every device seamlessly. If I use handoff from one device to the other, I can even do that same process with the same video and switch from device to device without doing anything with the Airpods.

I get so many lucrative ideas from Bloomberg articles, pretty much every day. Well worth paying the subscription.
The Tyler Slide Rule
Most useful article I've read probably this year.

After selling our last company I was surprised that the acquirer went on an even bigger spending spree just months after acquiring us. As a bootstrapper this blew my mind.

This article helps shine a light on how they pulled it off. They acquired us for the free cashflow the company threw off (uncommon in our industry) and the leveraged that to further their expansion.

I've always looked at accounting as "backwards facing" (meaning it looks at what has happened vs where a company is going) but this article has changed my perspective dramatically.
The Stolen FireEye Red Team Tools Are Mostly Open Source
I'm an existing Cloudflare (free) customer. If I click that link it just takes me to my list of sites. If I choose a site I see the normal analytics I've always seen with he prompt to upgrade to pro. Is there a way to sign up if you already have a site on CloudFlare?
> company luxury cars for the executives, a company home that they let the CEO live in, and executive compensation

All those should be taxed like the equivalent of income for those executives, which is a higher rate than the corporate tax rate. If these benefits in kind are not taxed as income, then it is fraud.
> Less Cal in than out is the way to go.

That mantra always drives me nuts. Not because it's false (on the contrary, by the laws of thermodynamics it's trivially true), but because it's not helpful for people trying to lose weight as it ignores the dynamic homeostasis systems of the human body. I.e. as reported by this article, if you try to increase your "out" energy expenditure, your body releases hormones specifically attempting to increase your "in" by making you hungrier. Similarly, if you try to reduce your "in", your body will lower its metabolism to try to reduce your "out".
Would mind trying again here? It should work now!
There's something poetic about using Google's own tools to demonstrate why their own frontend code is slow. Maybe the author can suggest they use Lighthouse CI next to track which commits improve/degrade UX (but I'm guessing that's a competing product with their own).

On the whole, I agree that the adoption of QR codes more widely is a good thing - they are a useful tool to solve a certain class of problems, but in pre-COVID times, they often weren't practical as only a small proportion of people would know how to use one, making it not a viable option to solve the problem.

However, one downside of mobile phone ordering is that it has made the ordering process significantly less streamlined. Some restaurants/bars require you to install an app, some are fully web-based (good) but require you to register, but only some of them are web-based, don't ask for more information than is required, and integrate well with fast/easy payment systems (such as Google Pay or Apple Pay).
Only between 2 sources. Airpods can switch seamlessly between all my Apple devices without me needing to do anything. The only exception is my PC since I have to connect via Bluetooth.
A funny twist on this saying: You can't outrun a cheeseburger.

> Why do people believe in it?

Amazon FOMO.

Investors are so butt hurt they didn't believe other investors about Amazon's razor thing margins and now its a 1T company.

I think Uber/DD are VERY different though. I don't see the potential either.
You want your server OS to be a mountain. It shouldn't move from under you as you build.

Fedora is a river, it never stops moving.
You remember the dates of when these data structures were first published off the top of your head? Are you a computer science professor?
Also a note about directly supporting the business and/or spreading the word if they're a happy customer. I'm always in favour of supporting companies that have made products or conduct business in ways that I appreciate.
What?

First of all, most of latinos are hispanic. Being Brazilians the largest group of latinos that are not hispanic but ibero-americans.

Second. They were not forced. Isabel of Castille prohibited slavery 500 ago and made marriages between Spanish people and natives legal. Most of the people that went there were men and their kids would inherit their last name.

Thid. There are a lot of latinos that emigrated from Spain and lived there for centuries and they keep their last name.

If they don't want to use accents, that's their decision, but stop making up stuff.

With the success of Apple M1, TSMC and Samsung will grow faster than Intel. Taiwan,Korea,Japan and US will control the semiconductor industry in the near future unless a game changing technology is introduced. Taiwan semiconductor companies's stocks are going banana after US slap sanction on SMIC. UMC stock has not changed much in years jumped 250% in last few weeks. (UMC invented foundry as service, then TSMC copy them)
Absolutely, I have no problem with content marketing and while I'm not your customer or in the market for your solutions, I did think it was an interesting article. I was just responding to the criticism(?) that this was "just" an advertisement.
What's a past example?
This is sort-of true.

Buy I've found that when you exercise more, my diet automatically gets better. Not great, but significantly less bad.
It could be even more wrong. Running burns around 100kcal/mile[1], so assuming a fairly pedestrian 8min/mile, that's only 20 minutes.

What? Deploying new software is technical debt?
I wouldn’t give California’s government any credit for Tesla’s success so far. If it was so good then Tesla wouldn’t be the only car company doing so well.
As they say - You lose weight in the kitchen and get fit in the gym.
Things change - I don't disagree. Things can't always been boom times. California has had a pretty strong push since the 80s frankly with the telecom bust in early 2000s.

I would say the cost of living has escalated significantly, the companies that can afford to thrive in the bay area are not hardware startups as VC money has a difficult time support most of their higher capital costs, longer growth cycles and lower multiples on return. The pressure to succeed and level of talent is incredibly competitive. Therefore a lot of the software companies have taken over which is a different demo of people.

Don't believe the narrative on mass exodus - thats a signal that is being amplified in the press. Exodus? Yes, will it come back when we are not in pandemic? I would wager yes.

Is it time for some people to move out of state especially those who don't or never liked it? Yes, take the pressure off our public systems.
Haven’t fully read the article. What other ideas other than scams have you gotten from it?
Semi-related life hack: as gyms are closed and I am a tad too heavy to run (screwed up knees from my youthful pursuits), I have decided to emulate the walk to work. I recently started to rent an external office (they come super cheap right now) and leave my work laptop there. It forces me to walk 2x25 minutes everyday. I need to do something after hours? Well, back to the office it is (although in this case I usually dash there on my supercool kick scooter).
Very fancy website. Do you have fancy documentation? This looks really cool. I want to stream data via zmq in json format but i don't see any examples of what the json looks like.
Heh, now I have to defend this thing!

So long as the JavaScript executes, this doesn’t actually harm accessibility: as it loads, it slurps the JSON, and turns it into a perfectly normal web page; rather like XSLT, as others have pointed out. And quirks mode isn’t that serious a problem. It’s a mild nuisance at most, really.

But I do agree with your last sentence.
You can, but it takes a LOT of work, and you still need to hit macros.

Honestly, high level endurance or strength sports make eating a chore. You simply need a LOT of food with decent macros, and you need to be eating all the time. I was once a fairly competitive 100mpw runner. It's eating before you go to bed, so you can wake up at 5 and eat before going back to bed to wake up at 6 so you can do a long run and eat 150+ calories an hour during that, then immediately hit a protein shake and some rice/pasta after the run, then lunch, so you can be prepped to go out again at like 6pm for an evening shakeout run, then you do dinner, then snack before bed, and repeat. 4k+ calories a day is a grind unless you're hammering a lot of really empty calories.

Empathy is self destructive. Prefer compassion, when possible.
20 years ago, and before that, liberals complained that the media, schools, etc., were lying to the public.
It's actually a trolley problem within a trolley problem!

The decision whether to ban or approve the vaccines as they were developed was another example. The status quo is to ban vaccines until they meet criteria.

Ban a vaccine for those over 65, avoid the possibility of a side effect 100x than ever experienced (there has never been a vaccine entering phase 1 trials with over 1 in 100,000 expected risk of death).

Allow high risk people to voluntarily take the vaccine, most will work (about 85% of vaccines tested for efficacy succeed).

Society chose to ban the vaccine, killing hundreds of thousands of lives that could have been prevented. This pandemic is effectively solely a problem caused by this decision.
I don't think he's saying that they should stop complaining.

He's saying they don't realize what they have, they are not thankful for anything and they keep dramatizing over everything.
It's already possible, albeit but not a full port:

https://github.com/marketplace/actions/run-travis-yml

The action executes the stage scripts making that part portable at first. It helps a lot migrating as not everything needs to be rewritten at once while already reducing the build-times on Travis.

Language handling is a different beast, but I had the same thought that with some Ruby know-how a port of the travis-build as a whole could be done.

If not even running locally.
Sure but what ws their recommended way instead of putting systemd in the image, just use supervisord. Not even comparable.

Anyway , the past is the past. Docker were clearly wrong in their decision to put off systemd inside containers, and was most probably for political reasons because it was very very requested feature.
I wasn't trying to be sarcastic, but I prefer the sarcastic interpretation.
Resting metabolism constitutes the vast majority of total body metabolism. Exercise is a very difficult way to lose weight without altering your diet.
B-but... CRTs produce a richer, warmer picture!

A common criticism of CentOS is that it's too stable. I don't see a mention anywhere of LTS channel of CentOS Stream, but wouldn't the next RHEL release effectively mean that current CentOS Stream channel becomes the LTS alternative, if RedHat commits to providing security backports?
Great, maybe now we can stop considering them a platform and hold them liable for their content, while other p2p video platforms can provide services Youtube used to provide.
I lost roughly 30kg since Corona started by changing my lifestyle to Keto and OMAD.

I have been exercising 3 days a week with a PT for 3 years before with no results on the weight (but many other great results like fixing my knee and back problems, getting really strong, etc.)
Good point. Though the "internet wisdom" nowadays is to not add vdevs to a pool that has already seen use (in this scenario there will be a lot of use) since the pool will be very unbalanced and there is no way to rebalance it. Also negating many of the benefits of mirrors over raidz.

But that advice might not be relevant for the use-cases discussed here, something to keep in mind.

I meant that home-users don't have to be limited by 8-drive setups.
I love the web from the bottom of my heart. I love Javascript, I love Typescript, I love Angular. Develop once, run everywhere, no client side updating required. I love rest(ful) APIs. I consider working with Angular a joy. I am serious here.

Oddly enough, an actual coffee flavored milkshake has the same calorie count as those fast food coffee drinks (~400 cals) and if you use light ice cream you can probably get it quite a few calories less...
Even if it doesn't produce sterilizing immunity it will reduce the spread by stopping the virus from causing coughing and sneezing. So it's possible that it will allow reaching herd immunity anyway.
"Containers aren't quite there yet."

The rest of the world beg to differ, it's not a question of is it ready or not, it's "Am I going to use it or not".

We're way passed that question.
I love how everyone is making the same point while, I think intentionally, ignoring the major issue... Jabra's can do the switching with 2 bluetooth devices. Airpods can do it between every Apple device, without doing anything. The situation you're describing where you use the Jabra headsets/phones with an iPad, tablet, and other Macbooks requires you to connect to the devices manually. It's not always a pain but it's not seamless like with Airpods. If you have to manually switch anything then you either don't have them set up correctly or you intentionally turned something off. I don't have to do anything to get my Airpods to switch devices.
True enough, you can't eliminate metadata (or as it should be really called: "traffic analysis"). And don't get me wrong, I think you're improving things.

It's just that with something that advertises E2E encryption, the expectations are high. Unavoidably so. Doesn't help that various snake-oil salesmen have tried to hijack the term too, because of its implied strength. So being upfront about the threat model and in particular what your service can not protect against is important.

It just happens that in this particular case, the not-in-threat-model-scope is also a thing of interesting value. Perhaps even more so if your service gets adopted by civil rights or other organising movements.
To be fair, containers often end up being its own Linux installation with its own configuration drift. So many dockerfiles mindlessly pull in an entire Ubuntu system just to run a simple app.
This pandemic I've been eating at most twice a day (light breakfast, skip lunch, then dinner). Sometimes I eat only once a day (dinner). I was surprised how quickly my body adjust and I don't feel as hungry anymore. I don't think humans need to eat three times a day.

I also only gain weight for 1kg after all these 8 months lockdown/not allowed to open (pre lock down I did karate about 3 times a week).
"We need to find a way to discourage mega-mergers." Why? If YouTube or Instagram didn't get acquired, Google and Facebook would find a way to destroy them just like Microsoft did to Netscape and they wouldn't exist anymore but in essence they are great products and there are no other products like them on the market. Once they get destroyed there is less competition and at least when they are alive you can look up to them for quality of service and motivation to compete.
The thing you're missing is that each of the tweets in a thread has its own set of replies & quote tweets, some of which may themselves be threads. [1] This is why I like to think of Twitter as a fractal annotation platform: it allows people to write commentary on specific portions of other people's commentary. Twitter's innovation is that it forces the writer to divide their text into annotatable segments before publishing it.

I think it's great that we're coming up with better tools to facilitate the process of writing modular text. Hopefully these tools will make it clearer to writers what Twitter threads are for and reduce the prevalence of behaviors like splitting sentences across tweets.

[1] Unfortunately Twitter's thread-composing UI isn't available when writing a reply to someone else's tweet. It would be nice if they fixed this. (Perhaps the reasoning is that a multi-tweet reply would work better as a quote tweet. I still think it would be nice to have the thread UI available for every tweet, regardless of the context.)
Yeah, it’s certainly not fragile in that way. The quirks mode thing is actually one of my lesser concerns about it.
My problem now is how to ugprade my GPU :(

My favourite monitor is a CRT, currently plugged into a R9 380X, that is the most recent GPU + RAMDAC combo... newer video cards do not have RAMDAC anymore :(

Also I do have the CRT main problem too... I own a Television that I intend to use to play old consoles, and that TV is from a very sought after model, but it is stuck on my parents house because it is so big and heavy that there is no physical space inside my apartment to put it :/ It will wait until I move into a ground-level house to use it... (I still regularly turn it on and use for other things, it works great)
From the looks of it, alien is just a tool to convert between different package formats and is not a replacement for proper packaging work. Very much like how you can’t take a deb package from different releases of the same distro and expect things to work properly, you can’t just take RPMs from CentOS to a whole different distro and expect things to work.

It’s not only the differences in the packaging format that you have to take care of. There’s also version differences, path differences, dependency handling, and many other stuff to take care of. These are the kind of tasks which can’t be automated away and require non-trivial amount of work.

For organizations that maintain tens, hundreds, or thousands of CentOS packages that spans multiple teams, moving to other distros would be time-consuming and costly. It would certainly pay off if it was driven by technical reasons, but for organizations that are forced to switch by this announcement, this is just pure overhead.
