I don’t think it is about recognising the origin of what we now call “British” people. But that there is still some intolerance of immigrants (particularly if they aren’t white) in Britain. It’s nowhere near as bad as it was but it still exists.

Edit: downvotes suggest there’s some disagreement. I don’t think what I said is controversial or wrong, so I’d like to know the motivation
I vaguely remember that at one point the NYT provided a way to just simply cancel your account through a link on the NYT account portal -- no need to chat with a specialist. Though, it could have been another paper subscription that allowed for that, I don't remember fully, it was probably 4 years ago at this point.

Anyway, I cancelled my NYT subscription a few months ago and received no push back from the specialist. While this tactic might be something that's expected from management, I don't think everyone is willing to do it... or maybe the specialist I chatted with met their retainment quotas for the month (if that's a thing.).
Why are you shilling Nano? No one uses it, and no one will ever use it.
The data supports the idea that nuclear power is safe, making them /feel/ safe is the next step in widespread adoption, so we have a lot of FUD to undo from the coal lobby. Drills and explicit plans might help from the "there's nothing you can do" angle. I'm not sure, though.
well said. Still, I really hope Rocky Linux thrives. Then when it does, doesn't sell out.

Google / FB / ad services are the few companies where it's much less likely than elsewhere. Ad spend relies on profit it generates. If they raise ad prices, they'll lose some customers. There's no easy way for them to pass on any extra tax.

I used to live in Ceredigion in Wales which despite being a mere county now almost perfectly maps to the 5^th century post-Roman kingdom. There's parts of Ceredigion which look pretty much the same as they've done for millennia, the mountain road between Rhayader and Aberystwyth has got to be one of Britain's best drives!

Sydney to Singapore is 6300km as the crow flies. At light speed completely directly best possible round trip time would be 42ms.

A few points:

- The RBMK-1500 in the now decommissioned Ignalina Power Plant wasn't built near a big city, unlike the Belarusian power plant.

- Lithuania invested a lot into the safety of the Ignalina Power Plant, installing the latest European safety systems. Partly thanks to EU, yes, but the point is that there was cooperation and safety improvements. Belarus largely ignored the safaty concerns and recommendations by the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).

- Lithuania didn't invest into natural gas -- this is just factually not true. Elektrenai Power Plant was modernized (well, in fact, they just built a modern one in the same site and closed down the old units) as a strategic "backup" power plant, but the overall capacity was not expanded. If anything, Lithuania has been investing significantly into renewable energy, although perhaps not as much as we would wish.
This seems at least 60% political to try to get the population worried about foreign 'scary' nuclear, and the fact they have no control over it...
Not really, the dispatching between experts happen for every word and every layer, so you can't easily isolate distinct models.
(Just to make it clear I didn't mean to downplay this. Obviously to survive in your house at -10c you do need preparations which I understand many people don't have not being used to these temperatures. It's easy to forget as someone who lives a bit further up north that it's not a given that people have thick air tight walls and heavy down filled blankets to help them through. So to answer my own question: It would be unsafe because they might not have the things they need to be safe.)
Perhaps we could eventually get things like a video of a drone flying over the 4km high cliffs of Echus Chasma:

Make proof (recording, screenshots, mails, etc.) that you requested them to cancel subscription. I typically record the call and tell them I am recording. Then threaten them with lawsuit if they don't cancel.

> faux CRTs sitting atop the non-Amigas. ... in the end, they decided to use a standard LCD behind a milled acrylic lens

Hmm, I'd never considered that. I keep seeing people talking about buying really expensive 90s Sony TVs for retro gaming or resorting to iffy display filters in their emulator, but a clip-on lens could be nice. And frankly, I'm not sure my desk or tables would support one of those 90s monsters anyway.

I'm imagining one of those odd "anti-radiation filters" that were all the rage in the CRT days. Have to remember to check back in a few days to see if any commenters there have posted a workable home solution.

The fullscreen cookie takeover on mobile is obnoxious.
I can tell you that devices with Apple CPUs _do_ have multiple NVMe namespaces.

The recovery OS and 1TR are not data needed to be saved permanently (as in serial number and such, without which you cannot restore the device), you can recover them through DFU.

Data critical for being able to restore is in the SPI flash. (and it's assumed that some of it might be in other NVMe namespaces too)
Sortition is a very interesting approach we should consider implementing

That's a recent change, and come about since they've been taken to court.

> They can be loud, depending on the switches you get.

It’s worth noting that for folks who don’t know proper typing technique (which is probably nearly everybody under the age of 40, as nobody really teaches it any more, at least in the countries where I’ve lived) it almost doesn’t matter what sort of mechanical switch you’re using, in terms of noise.

In my experience, the majority of mechanical keyboard noise for most folks doesn’t actually come from the switches at all; it comes from the keys noisily bottoming out on each keystroke.

My theory is that most folks these days learned to type on membrane keyboards where you have to bottom out the keys (often with quite a lot of force, if the keyboard is old), or else on a laptop’s scissor switches where you can’t avoid bottoming out due to the extremely short throw, and so everyone’s just typing with much more force than necessary and driving the keys all the way down to the backplate on every press because that’s what they had to do with the keyboards they learned on.

Which of course makes typing far less pleasant, and also much noisier! The complaints are totally understandable, from that perspective.

This also links into the “Massive travel time” comment; most folks push the keys much too far down while typing on mechanical keyboards!

Cherry MX Blue switches (as one example) actuate at 2mm, which is almost exactly the same distance as most (non-Apple) laptop scissor switches. The only reason that a mechanical keyboard would have “massive travel time” compared to a laptop keyboard is if you’re needlessly pushing the keys all the way down, when you actually only need a gentle tap on them.
I should have explained a bit better what I meant by accountability in that context: reduced direct oversight from general management, almost kinda "chinese wall" style.

Besides the reasons given by OP, an issue w/ skunkworks is that it requires two things that happen much less often in practice than people like: you need very strong, skilled team, and the need for high impact that management believe cannot be achieved any other way.

Similarly, at the heyday of xerox park, it sounds like Taylor was key to enable true, long term autonomy for his teams.
Don't really agree but do think human lifespans are important. I don't think it's a coincidence that Brexit has happened after those who remember WWII have mostly died. Living memory is really important in avoiding the same mistakes, it seems. People forget why institutions exist.

Similarly, the financial sector has been spiralling out of control for decades, beginning roughly when most living memory of 1929 had passed.

If you want it to be done externally without setting up a routing table then the next best option would be some kind of traffic tagging to indicate what you want to go over which line. That would start looking like a network with multiple VLAN:s.

It's this that makes entrepreneurship more abundant in the first place. If you have an economy with no risk taking you have no growth and no dynamism. Sure, 80-90% of businesses will fail, it's essential that people can fail without too much personal risk after all, but the 1 in 100 businesses that go onto grow to employ hundreds or thousands thanks to an effective business model are more than enough to make up for the failures. When someone fails in a startup it's not like they drop out of the economy altogether. Its not like they learned nothing. They go on to become effective employees at other companies, producing value there.
Making a subscription that by default lasts forever should be ilegal.

For people like (excuse my bluntness) us hacker news types sure. I can make a case that for a large chunk of the population this is not true - consoles are popular because people don't want to have to deal with the added complexity that came from "freedom".

If Epic wins, any user who wanted a walled garden (e.g. iOS) rather than open (e.g. Android) will be deprived of that choice. Ultimately, having looked into this quite a bit, I think this boils down to a debate whether the walled garden business model should be legal.
The companies withdrawing the money in that scenario would be a number of legitimate luxury goods sellers. KYC would need to uncover that their customers, possibly through several layers of further indirection, have channeled illegitimate funds from North Korea.

By the way, just one more point: Generation III+ VVER-1200 reactors and all the systems around them are not the same in different power plants.

VVER-1200 is used in Hanhikivi Nuclear Power Plant built in Finland by Russian Rosatom. This particular power plant uses comprehensive "package" with extra safety features and also a lot of European equipment. Yet, the regulators still identified a considerable list of issues to be addressed.

Belarus, on the other hand, opted for the cheapest "basic" package with the bare minimum and pretty much "winged" the whole construction, ignoring all foreign concerns.

I really can't understand how some of you can "suffer" through a Fellini's film. His films have always multiple levels, and there is always one funny dimension, a more philosophical level, the photography is always outstanding, there is a poetic level.
Probably some of the Fellini's irony is lost in translation:his being funny is sometimes linked to the accent of some of the characters(I am Italian) . But you have to gloss over a lot of the beauty to find him boring.

this is what we're doing in Libre-SOC, and using standard python software engineering practices (writing unit tests at every step of the way) to do it. some of those unit tests are actually Formal Correctness Proofs (asserts, but for hardware).

i was stunned to find that in the hardware world, test-driven development is not standard practice: people simply haven't been trained that way. they write thousands to tens of thousands of lines of unverified code and finally do an integration test.

That is better, but doesn't check for incorrectly repeated elements:

In fact that is the first main motivating failure case discussed in the readme. But actually that's simple enough to deal with too:

assert Counter(result) = {"a": 1, "b": 1}

But would be trickier for mutable / unhashable types (not sure if "precisely" can deal with those).

We should absolutely not implement sortition without some form of filtering to ensure the pool contains only qualified individuals, but that pushes the goalpost to selecting a benevolent committee which brings us back to the current situation.

From the Central Limit Theorem, we would end up with mostly candidates from the middle of the pool. The fact that 'average' people are in possibly important positions a) enables malicious actors to manipulate them much easier than having more qualified (or smarter people) and b) puts potentially unqualified people in important positions.

I do not suggest that the current state of affairs is better either, but considering, for example that a very large portion of people in the US are Qanons, putting them in any important position is definitely not a good idea.
