The only thing I'm suggesting is that freedom doesn't spare you from mediocrity.

Real oppression, an experience the US professional middle class is largely spared of, the type experienced by the citizens of Venezuela or the people currently being held in Xinjiang re-education camps, is truly insurmountable and requires large macro shifts to institute change. To suggest individual bullying, harassment and isolation are counted as so insurmountable to a person's theoretical "potential" that the environment must change first to prompt it, is an illustration of the deep self-absorption very few people have the privilege to experience.

Nothing is right or just in this context.

Call independent repair shops in the Bay Area that specializes in Macs. I could not get the name of the GPU repairer because the repair shop earned a hefty fee being the middleman.
Chrome has about 70 percent market share and this higher amount may accounts for that.
A real life example of a related problem I know is cutting leather, say to make shoes. There, the shape to be cut is constant, but the surfaces they have to cut from (hide shapes and their defects) are different for each hide.

Cutting cigar wrappers (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cigar#Wrapper) out of tobacco leaves is a similar problem (https://patents.google.com/patent/US4275627 has a good description). I once read about software for doing that, but can’t find that.
Not necessarily all open source, homebrew-cask has been merged into brew and you have e.g. Jetbrains IDEs and Zoom available.

Personally I use homebrew-cask to manage almost all applications and their updates, turning auto-updating off in almost all apps. That way I am in control and can update when it is convenient, know if an update broke something, etc.

Edit, using:

- https://github.com/buo/homebrew-cask-upgrade

- https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-bundle

> The regulatory costs of developing new instruments and intertia of manufacturers doesnt help.

I work on (mostly non-critical) medical devices and I would like to remind that regulatory is there for a purpose.

If anything the 737 Max fiasco should remind people what can happen when regulatory is considered a cost that need to be cut in a field where there can be some hazards, and where some people in the chain do not have the best interest of the public in mind.

And yes, in the medical industry too, there can be some people who care more about optimizing profits than about patients.

Maybe there are some undue regulatory rules, but hopefully there are not the majority.

In the case of what I work on, regulatory does not prevent us from using state of the art CPUs and GPUs, so yes R&D may need somehow longer cycles from consumer electronics to get a return of investment, but let's be honest it is not too much scandalous to get some features a few years after you get similar things in consumer electronics, especially in cases where there are diminishing returns of improving X or Y.

And yes it is easier to build things when you don't have to care about e.g. ability to disinfect materials, you can cope with more bugs, etc.
They (we, I work at Red Hat) would have no engineering department the second after.

Yeah. After reading your comment I tried out a couple of similar domains on the form x is bad and x is good and they were both parked waiting for someone to pay whatever ridiculous price the owner is wanting to demand to sell it. I wish it was illegal to do that.
> The first reply I got was something about the drama with some dude named Phil.

At least for Windows, can't you just quickly compare the ethical universes? I'm assuming that Phil didn't embrace-extend-extinguish other distros, Phil didn't secretly change Skype to break the encryption for LE, and Phil didn't upgrade the distro to do constant, inescapable telemetry and update arbitrarily downloading Gigs of data such that it interrupted a user's live broadcast.

In other words, if your decision is between Phil's distro and Windows, Phil's distro wins so it's the end of the story. And if the HN trolls you're responding to aren't claiming a 1:1 feature correspondence with "ethical" distro vs. Manjaro, who cares?
Oh this is normal. People upvote the title, then comment, then read it if the comments aren’t agreeing with their preconception. Humans are a mess of a species.
There's been a massive influx of reddit-quality comments for quite a while. I guess it was only a matter of time before it was reflected in the submissions.
Chrome lives in the causal consumer world.

Many of us believe, with some justice, the causalization of computers has been to the diminishment of power users.

Therefore chrome bad gets hundreds of upvotes. I guarantee you not everyone read the entire article, and then ran their own diagnostic CPU benchmarking to verify the results, and also compared it against chrome competitors.

It's more like the common folk like chrome, and chrome ruin PCS for us
I have a limited perspective but my experience was in getting acquired by a larger company that used Slack. In the larger company, especially when you first join, you don’t know who to talk to to get information you need or to coordinate work. This was partly due to the by design self service/decentralized culture of the company.

The use of channels was eminently useful then. You discover the general channel to use and then people that you didn’t previously know can help you. Also it doesn’t have to be a specific person helping you. Different people can help you at different times and with different questions. Likewise, you return the favor.

Also, you can then snoop in on a channel to keep track of areas you are interested in. This was a way of extracting and sharing institutional knowledge.

Lastly, you can create temporary channels for coordinating projects.

Although channels existed before, this was the first setting that I found it used extensively and effectively in this way. Perhaps most importantly to getting the whole system to work, there were cultural expectations placed on groups responsible for particular channels of being timely and helpful in replies.

Therefore you would get replies to questions in seconds or minutes. That was very useful in getting unblocked and unblocking others. You would almost never encounter the flame wars that you would see on Hacker News (well besides the social channels).

The organizational environment and the culture of how to use channels is what I mean when I say the innovation was cultural. Divorce channels from the environment or culture and you will see very different outcomes.
I've had noticeable issues with "WindowServer" in the past (taking 80% CPU usage and causing the fans to ramp up even when the system seemed like it should be idling even after a reboot) so I decided to give this a shot.

This is anecdotal but there is a noticeable difference for me with responsiveness after following these steps. Currently the WindowServer process is hovering around 14%.
The window to the internet should not be some monster that takes millions of developer hours and held ransom by a couple of big companies.

Its not the amount of money I'm complaining about but the amount of money compared to the services rendered. SpaceX has an amazing track record in terms of that.

Nice work. Getting rid of the cable was actually the most important feature for me. It is almost impossible to spot that this is actually an electronic device if one doesn't notice the small button at the bottom.
I'm not sure you can really characterise Rust as irrelevant to industry anymore (with some of the most widely used software written in Rust and FAANG companies hiring core developers), but I do agree that it has an unusually high quality standard for libraries (I'm unfamiliar with the Haskell ecosystem but I hear good things).

However, I think that while some of it is certainly cultural, a lot of it is due to the type systems in these languages being a lot more powerful which allows for more expressive APIs and more robust error handling, etc.
What kind of gaps are there currently between Kafka and RedPanda? Particularly in the "Enterprise" world (e.g. security, etc).
> Not if you're writing an IDE.

This thread is so weird. The topic at hand is a compliers course. ibains complains about a desire for qualified IDE developers. It's like complaining that your family doctor isn't an orthopedic surgeon. Why should a compilers course spend the requisite time for these highly specialized IDE algorithms?

Specifically. What part of this course should be removed to make room for IDE-specific algorithms? Or, would an advanced IDE algorithms course (with this course as a prerequisite) be a more sensible approach?

This must be how things like some alternative medicine and anti-vax start: Things like feeling healthy and your computer being slow can be very subjective.

The author appears to be technical enough to know that there is something called keystone on his computer, but not technical enough to benchmark and investigate further. The name keystone sounds kind of nefarious, so it makes sense that someone would be able to convince themselves that it makes their computer slower.

Chinese authorities detain Bloomberg News staff member
A lot of skeptical comments in this thread.

I'm not low-level enough to confirm or deny the specific claims in the article.

I will say that my experience with regards to CPU performance "leaks" and Chrome seeming to always be running in the background even when I didn't want it to, as well as Chrome starting up on system startup when there didn't seem to be any references to it anywhere I'd expect to cause that, are consistent with the article.

I saw a lot of "low-level integration" with my system going on, a lot more than I understood, ever wanted or asked for, and there was no way I knew of to turn it off. It was like IE on Windows all over again.

I was also able to solve the issues by removing Chrome from my systems.

I sometimes install it temporarily to do Web testing and remove it shortly afterwards, but I think I'll do that in a VM from now on.
Create a new profiling environment based on the template you're interested in, making sure "Choose a profiling template for:" is set to "Your Computer > All Processes." Next, in the top-left of the window, where it says "Your Computer > All Processes", click on All Processes. Select Choose Target... and navigate to your binary and hit Choose. Then hit the red circle to begin recording. This will launch a new instance of the specified binary and profile it.

This may not work for binaries that set PT_DENY_ATTACH, though.
Sounds like a reinforcement of Drew's point to me. Using the IDE to jump all over the place, and blast changes over several files at once, suggests severe and unnecessary non-localities and tight couplings in the code.

Maybe without the IDE, the code would have ended up a little cleaner.
Some of this is timing.

Many many many companies, right or wrong, wait until the very list minute to upgrade their legacy systems.

Many of us are either still in the process or worse just finish our migration from CentOS 6 to CentOS 8, only to have the rug pulled out from under us.

The sheer impact this move will have on many organizations is what is driving this emotional reaction

If they would have honored the LifeCycle for CentOS 8, there would not have been the reaction you have seen

100% of the emotion / drama is coming from the choice RedHat has made to cut the supported life of CentOS 8 by 7 years. that is a DRASTIC action, and their belief that 12 months is "enough time" shows a clear ignorance of how the product is used in enterprise or they fully understand and are banking on the desperation of enterprise to sell RHEL licenses.

either way it drastic choice by RedHat.
> "soft" fields like gender studies or ethnomusicology

I don't know anything about gender studies, but regarding ethnomusicology, you can be assured that it is a bona-fide, hard subject, even involving and motivating non-elementary math. The study of timbre and harmony in western music is rather dry, since it is overwhelmingly dominated by wind and string instruments that have one-dimensional, harmonic spectra. Even western percussion instruments are painstakingly tuned to have integer partials. The study of ethnomusicology opens an incredibly wide field of different types of instruments and their harmonies that is a godsend for modern musical theory (and, in turn, it helps to understand western harmony as a concrete particular case among an infinite ensemble of possibilities). See, e.g.

https://homepages.abdn.ac.uk/d.j.benson/pages/html/maths-mus...

this is a serious textbook about ethnomusicology and linear PDE on Riemannian manifolds.

What were your ethnomusicology classes about? They might be really bad, if you ended up thinking that it is a "soft" subject.

Why would you do that with IDE?

The OP is comparing IDE v.s. shell in terms of "exploring" and "editing" the code. In that case IDE is a powerful nail gun and championing it isn't wrong.
Bizarre, but not surprising that the process has false negatives as well as false positives. And there's always going to be people who push the boundaries and hunt for loopholes. It's in the nature of rating/censorship regimes.

There's a story that one of the early London strip clubs run by Paul Raymond was told that static nude "modelling" was OK, but "dancing" wasn't. So he had the models on small trolleys wheeled about the stage.
Well that's a great answer. ;)

It's kind of a shame that Apple killed off the Windows version of Safari. I often wonder if they would consider bringing it back.
The opposite is true, Android sleeps unless something explicitly keeps it awake - i.o.w. a process holds a wake lock. Where PC operating systems go to sleep when there is nothing to do for a while, Android sleeps until being woken by user interaction or scheduled timer events. It then performs the task(s) after which it goes to sleep again. A music player on a PC would keep the machine awake, a similarly built player would stop playing after a few seconds on Android unless the developer made sure to schedule wakeups or used the big hammer of requesting a wake lock. Spurious wake locks used to be a common cause of drained batteries until Android started to put limits on background processes.
Great job - they look excellent.

I would be shocked if that's replicable.
I think you mistake the VARs with enterprises. Otherwise, as a holder of several cisco certs, I've clearly been missing out on these perks and free training. Not to mention the free trips to luxury locations.
Yes, it’s possible. In the menu with all the processes, pick the option “Choose Target”. It’s kind of an annoying UI, but it works.

Another option is to use `xcrun xctrace` to get a recording from the command line, which can then be opened in Instruments.
I rarely see Cisco hardware in the SMB space. They’ve price themselves out.

When I do come across it, it’s either telecom vendor owned, or the small business stuff which is re-branded Linksys or some other garbage.

Even the re-branded small business lines are almost double what the competition costs. But, it sells because “it’s Cisco” and it’s not $3,000 a switch.
Really? I'm gonna say that posting pics of your butt on non-porn forums is gonna get you booted from most of them, likewise if you post spam or contraband media. Even on social media where no moderation facilities exist, if one or a few participants are serially abusing the channel and can't be persuaded to stop or leave, the other users will tend to set up a new channel that doesn't include those bad actors and be more careful about who they invite in future.
I wonder if this is a DNS issue. Are the browsers that work ignoring the system DNS servers? Perhaps using DoH?
As someone who knows Willem and actually worked with him on finding how that weird CSS was being utilized/exploited I can say with 100% certainty that this is not a paid marketing piece.

And, just to clarify, by "work with him" I mean that he hit me up and we chatted while looking at the code and I suggested that some other code might be just using CSS as a storage place, not that I was paid or have ever been paid by him.

I used to work at AWS. They weren't really interested in "education".

Then I co-founded Cloud Academy with three other friends, to teach people about AWS (and later, Azure and GCP). A few years later in 2019, QA Learning bought it for a good sum. I was heavily involved since the beginning and right until the end, but never got to a proper full-time status. The full-time founders deserve most of the credit.

And now, finally, AWS seems to recognize the true value of education. The best hook ever for a cloud product.

If you are high up at GCP or Azure and want to compete against AWS on education, message me. I have plenty of ways to help you.

> The ironic thing is that if one were to string together a bunch of technical terms, they sound exactly as obscurantist to the outsider.

In other fields the obscurity is a side effect. In the humanities it’s the point, to try to make the sky-castle ideas sound more Important and Scientific than they actually are. A big part of postmodern theory is the notion that there basically is no truth, just texts with varying degrees of authority. The field unironically describes itself.
BTW I think the general idea of Oil's syntax is working out: start in "command mode", and then when you see the RHS of =, changing modes to Python-/JS- like expressions. There a few other cases where you switch to expression mode, like proc p(a, b) [1]

So far nobody has complained about any of this, I'm guessing because it looks very familiar, and that was intentional. Oil takes some pains to literally look like shell + Python syntactically, with better semantics.

I noticed that a few other shells are having problems with this command/expression distinction, and I discussed it like 3-4 years ago with Ilya Sher (of NGS) and a few other people. They were also having the same problem.

For example, does / mean a path separator or the division operator? Does * mean a glob or a multiplication? In Oil, this is no problem. It's obvious depending on the context.

Though I'm interested in more feedback on this, and the latest release is available to try as always :) https://www.oilshell.org/release/latest/

The awk and make integration is still doable but not done. Awk might require a notion of "lazy expressions" or "lazy arg lists", which would be shared with dplyr-like functionality. Oil's Zulip is open for discussion on these ideas :)

I hadn't realized that dark mode came out for Github, so I went and enabled it, and wow, even as a fan of "darker" dark modes (rather than the medium gray that so many apps and sites seem to prefer), I can see what OP meant! The main issue for me is that the text colors are all fairly dark as well; I'm sure that my tastes are too gaudy for most people, but I find higher contrast much easier to read, and on the off-chance that anyone else is like me and prefers much brighter text, I threw this CSS together:

```
.link-gray-dark, .news li blockquote, .link-gray, .text-gray, .text-gray-light, .UnderlineNav-item, .blob-code-inner {
color: white !important;
}

/* code comments are a dark gray by default, so I made them something brighter */
.pl-c {
color: orange !important;
}
```

As a bonus, if you also can't stand the sidebar on the right of the main page, you can hide it and reclaim the space for more useful content with this:

```
[aria-label="Explore"] {
display: none !important;
}
```
The amount of effort I need to invest to get my development team to even look at our apps in a browser other than Chrome is exhausting and I have to put up with snark and eye rolling every step of the way.

I feel like I'm back in the IE7 era.

Similar to forcing Microsoft or Google to prompt the user for their desired browser or search provider, it would be interesting if rhel was forced to prompt for a repo provider.

It would have been wiser to splash rhel support upgrades on CentOS gdm or cli cockpit than to threaten to kill a product.

Your example sounded like results produced with editors that do not understand the underlying language. A proper IDE would not prompt you with closeDataSteam if it's not a member function of the object to which you want to close the data stream.
