On the other hand, there certainly are significant irreversible events coming up if temperature rise is not capped, deforestation not stopped, industrial agriculture doesn't change, etc.
Healing and Life Goals by Guided Visualization
Guided visualization is a relaxing, empowering, and accommodating brain apparatus for manifesting what you need. It gets your ground-breaking subconscious psyche ready, so it works with you rather than against you when you need to when you have objectives you need to accomplish.

On the off chance that you experience difficulty picturing all alone or appreciate being driven through the interaction, guided visualization might be for you. Guided symbolism healing sounds, recordings, and composed contents are accessible for a wide assortment of subjects, including abundance, healthy relationships, better health, weight loss, trauma delivery, or stress alleviation.

During a meeting, you unwind and accept circumstances for what they are. Calming music and a relaxing speed simplify you to distinctively and purposely envision what you need. A video may have pictures you can watch. The more you unwind, dream, and connect with your faculties and feel, the better. Your subconscious brain will trust it to be precise and will attempt to make it so.
Why Visualize Healing?
There are a few advantages of imagining healing.

Your perspective seems to be purely based on optimizing for screen real estate. I don't use a tiling VM for the efficient use of pixels but for the usability benefits they provide. Useless gaps are useless when optimizing for use of pixels for content that is relevant to you. I like to have some visual "breathing" space between object I look at for the same reason passe-partouts are a thing in art for a very long time and pauses matter in music.

What do you do in 30 years when another incident like the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster happens?

Batteries will be the long term solution to energy baseload needs, not nuclear.
This is a trend. PG&E in CA started it and now Texas... I guess climate change is risky business after all.

> Whether or not nuclear power costs too much will ultimately be a matter for markets to decide

It’s not a market decision, but a government decision, as nuclear power has always been built with state guarantees and/or subsidies.

This article also again equates safety with lack of deaths. That’s like saying a neighborhood is safe, because in the robberies there only a few people die. Chernobyl and Fukushima had dramatic effects on millions of people. Contamination from Chernobyl to this day is a problem in Germany for instance.

Yes, in that sense it's more like CSS sprites, just a bit easier to use.
It's not really harmful as long as it's just some shell programs here and there that use it. The problem is when everything starts to rely on it.

Hell, in linux, the dynamic linker (ld-linux.so) depends on procfs to expands ELF variables (e.g. $ORIGIN, which requires the path to the current program being executed, which is retrieved from procfs). It's gone _way_ too far!

Now it does not mean that an other interface would be ugly/annoying to use from the shell.

`sysctl` for instance is quite convenient to use from the shell, and the hierarchical variables that it accepts could very well mirror what procfs exposes.

Something like

`$ sysctl proc.42.environ` <=> `$ cat /proc/42/environ`
There's still a third of the world left nearly digitally untransformed, though.

> apart from Black and Native American people

That's a pretty wide exception, and it's worth addressing why they remain an exception. Why are these groups so slow to economically integrate?

The simplest (and therefore most Occam's-razor-friendly) explanation for the black population is that they can't usually pass as "white" as easily as other demographics. But this doesn't really explain much for Native Americans, who could pass as "white" about as easily as Latinos and/or Asians.
The pricing of the Pro Display XR makes it kind of „vaporware“. The difference is it does exist, you can buy it but with this insance pricing almost no one will buy it.

The old displays were a thing because they had really been affordable.
That's kind of what bankruptcy is for, overtly. It's not like some kind of clever hack.

Very cool. I wouldn't mind having this. Right now my setup is my MBP and a 27 4K screen that I use as the primary. I thought about using two 4K or 5K screens and rather change to a Mac Mini, but in which direction would I be looking? If I'd look ahead with two screens, I would look at the space between the two screens. In other words, I actually prefer to have a "primary" screen and I keep wondering whether one actually needs another screen at all. What do you guys think?
Towards the end of the comments in that ticket there is a solution that worked for me on mac.
LegalQ – Simple Access to Legal Services
Hey crew,

My name is Zeb, I'm a lawyer, (I have some good qualities as well :p), and coder and I know cold account posts are lame, but me and the team are working on a start-up here in Minneapolis called LegalQ - https://legalq.io It's trite, but we are Uber for law.

We hope this will ultimately change the way legal advice is given holistically, and bring law into 2021. We are launching in MN with an amazing team (Wagma and Tim-co-founders).

There are currently 60M Americans that have some ongoing legal needs. We want to fix the first part of that chain by making access to an attorney real-time and available 24/7 via text, voice, or video chat.

If you have ever had a legal question and tried to search Google for the answer, you know how rough this can be. There are some attorneys that offer free consultations, but a lot of times it's very limited scope and they don't give you the goods until you sign up as a client / retainer.

On the other end, we also want to help attorneys find new potential clients. Student loans, (of which I currently have six-figures of), make any kind of public interest law, or really anything other than BigLaw really hard to be successful. There is a bi-model distribution on legal salaries. If you are in the top 3% of your class and you're in BigLaw, you can make $300k and call it a day, but most others can't take this path, and have a house payment worth of student debt to climb in the meantime.

Tech stack is React Native / GraphQL.

Anyway, we want to solve both of these issues at once. Access to justice, and access to potential clients in one swoop. Dreamers gonna dream.

Anyway 2, this isn't completely altruistic, we launched on PH today so if you like what you see and want to support, that'd be amazing! https://www.producthunt.com/posts/legalq?

If you have any other questions, hit me up and I'll do my best.

Thanks!

-Zeb

I am using a single xserver and extended the desktop.

Yes cloning is what I ended up doing.
I got a 27" monitor which is essentially 2 portrait mode monitors fused together.

When I could get hold of a 30" monitor years ago at work it was a real eye opener for me. I always had double screens but I tended to used only 2/3 of those screens and one was always to far off to the side to be more usefull than occasionally glance at.

Now with a 27/30" screen I can have 2 windows side by side within my field of view, of 1 large windows and 2 smallers ones like terminal.
This doesn't explain why anyone would pay 200K for a csgo skin.

> “the Linux of vaccines”

This sounds so cool. Imagine what would be possible with open collaboration between states, technology sharing and public funding.

We don't even have to imagine: we had a patent-free vaccine, better than the privately developed ones and available before all those. Yet we chose to get into the mess we are in now, with many states uncapable of providing enough vaccines in time.

Why is that? While there can be many answers, the root motive is and will always be the same: profit.

Still convinced that pharmaceutics corporations guided only by their shareholders hunger are our best way to go to take care of medical research?
DSA made OpenGL an actually enjoyable interface to work with. Many of my favorite changes(like the 4.5 gl_DrawID) are from later releases.

Thanks for the comment, Emrah!

I "slightly" disagree with requiring previous engineering work.

In my experience, from having paying customers or people willing to pay to keeping them is very different and requires an actually robust and stable technology (unlike the prototype, landing page, or MVP required for validation). I'm focusing on turning a valid idea into a profitable business, if that makes sense.

That being said, this is an experiment. I wrote a little bit more about what drove me to build it at https://news.onbrn.com/im-starting-build-for-equity if you're curious.

Thanks again, and I'll report back!
That's not what bankruptcy is? Unless you consider creditors and equity holders "society".

So while this is pretty accurate I think the last part could be said more nicely.

I get why you’re upset / impassioned, I am too about this in general, but I believe the person you are replying to was acting in good faith and giving a perspective most of us here do not have.

From a more pragmatic perspective this behavior discourages others, both directly and indirectly, from contributing in the future for fear of saying something wrong or incorrectly. Of course there is a balance.
I have seen the meme of the "death of the defined benefits pension is responsible for <societal ill related to retirement/wages>" but it doesn't make any sense to me upon reflection. It isn't like defined benefits plans created stable returns via magical pixie dust. There would still be pressures and systemic consequences from the failures.

The pension model essentially assumes either a far slower world or a protected relatively stagnant market. Even with "shift to government run pension" as a concept still has the same sorts of pressures no matter who the can is kicked down towards.
Great project! I did a similar project 3 years ago to save the use of the great screen in a 2009(?) 24” iMac with a broken logic board. Learnt about LVDS and went the Chinese control board direction. First iteration was an HDMI cable poking out. Second interaction was integrating a Raspberry Pi for a new-old all-in-one PC - plus, it felt much snappier than the original Core 2 Duo workings from the Mac.
> But there's zero individual user tracking.

Yes, individiual user tracking is creepy. Stop doing it.
Multiple inaccuracies in this article. mRNA based vaccines can be stored at fridge temperatures, they just didn’t get authorisation until recently.

Also, it talks about $400M for Moderna of government funding last year, when the vaccine was done (but trials not finished), but ignores >$1B of private money that went into 10 years of researching it.

It also tries to paint patents as the culprit for sone of the issues with vaccine production. But Moderna released their covid patents for free, and AZ licenses it easily - so it’s really not an issue of patents.
Does anyone know why the first deployment of the day needs to compile the whole codebase on all hosts? Stumbled over this part.
It's about respect. How would you feel if you were an iMac and people just wanted to plug into you to use you as a screen?

You mean other than ICE crackdowns just so happening to target Latinos? Or the exact same "they're stealing our jobs" rhetoric once used against Chinese immigrants now being applied to Latino immigrants? Do we wait until after Latino work crews are executed and buried in mass graves before we acknowledge there are some problems? Or maybe we wait until Latino neighborhoods get torched by populist mobs?
One is necessary to perform the action requested by the user. The other one is an collecting addtitional data that you have no reason to have.
> while they even designed the system

See, that's exactly why you're wrong. This wasn't a bad "design". If the fix required to rebuild the whole thing from scratch, then you would have a point and thinking about it "prematurely" would've been a good idea. In this case, both the fixes were bugs that could've been fixed after the game was finished without having to undo much of the work done.

The whole point of the saying is that you don't know what's gonna be a bottleneck until after. Yes by optimizing prematurely, you would've caught those two bugs early, but you would've also spent time analyzing a bunch of other things that didn't need to be analyzed. Whereas if you analyze it at the end once people complain about it being slow, you're only spending the minimum amount of time necessary on fixing the things that matter.

Or like California is it that deferring costs (winterizing in TX and fire prevention and forest clearing in CA) makes executives look good while kicking problems down the road, maybe even decades down the road.

Here in New Zealand the line network operator in the city of Dunedin has underinvested in the city line network, so instead of replacing power poles, they have simply changed the rules so that 2,500+ unserviceable old decaying power poles are suddenly within spec [1]... Meanwhile they are raising prices [2]

I have little doubt that when a major storm hits knocking out 100s or 1000s of power poles, they will simply blame climate change. Yes, the climate is changing, but the reason they will have failed is terrible, terrible management.

We're comparing two neighbourhoods. One has less deaths and less robberies. It is the one with nuclear power.

Chernobyl has done less damage and had less impact on those millions of people than the totally routine burning of coal. I grew up in a coal mining region; I fully expect more people suffer negative health outcomes when coal works as expected than in a Class 7 nuclear catastrophe. We just don't count the health impacts properly because it is too hard to prove cause and effect.

The overwhelming safety of the nuclear process makes the failures look bad, because we aren't used to nuclear plants producing detectable levels of ambient pollution.
>Why do they need to pay you 1% for your money

Das Capital!
Thank you for the suggestion, Emrah! From what I've been exposed to from people in minorities who are actively working towards diversifying the tech space, "paying no attention" is part of the problem of systemic racism, thus requiring an active discrimination against the privileged, in order to try and balance things out.

It's not a comfortable thing to do, because it can feel wrong, indeed.

I would be happy to consider removing that sentence if someone with more experience in this subject explained me it was hurting rather than helping diversification.
Thanks for the feedback.

> Only issue I see is that this something that should be directly integrated into email clients, not something I would get a third party app for

I agree that it would be better integrated as part of an email client. But that's nothing something I can do. So I'm trying to do the next best thing.

> (how do we trust you to forward emails to - I wouldn’t for work purposes, but would definitely consider for personal purposes).

I agree about the trust issue as well. Which is why I say ... only send publicly available email newsletters.

I don't expect people to forward private/confidential emails. Nor do I want them to.
Did MSN Messenger make money for Microsoft before they bought Skype?

Brand awareness for "MSN" just from MSN Messenger alone must have been massive. I'd be surprised today if half of your average kids using WhatsApp have even heard of Bing or Office 365. Hell, if it wasn't for Xbox Live the same could probably be said for that
You don't really have a precise measure when the time is 0.000002 seconds, there are other factors that can fudge the timings. But, there is indeed a better performance for "fact" on the small input. Notice that I have to make a loop and make sure the result from the function is used:

USER> (time (loop repeat 100000000 for f = (fact2 5) finally (return f)))
Evaluation took:
3.208 seconds of real time
3.208269 seconds of total run time (3.208269 user, 0.000000 system)
100.00% CPU
10,241,019,690 processor cycles
0 bytes consed

120 (7 bits, #x78, #o170, #b1111000)

USER> (time (loop repeat 100000000 for f = (fact 5) finally (return f)))
Evaluation took:
2.972 seconds of real time
2.971409 seconds of total run time (2.971409 user, 0.000000 system)
99.97% CPU
9,484,980,134 processor cycles
0 bytes consed

120 (7 bits, #x78, #o170, #b1111000)

I think the additional local functions might add a bit of overhead that is noticeable on small inputs.

So I added (declare (inline i)) in fact2 (i is iter), recompiled it, and I had a warning:

note: *INLINE-EXPANSION-LIMIT* (50) was exceeded while inlining I

Then, the timing for fact2 was faster:

USER> (time (loop repeat 100000000 for f = (fact2 5) finally (return f)))
Evaluation took:
1.900 seconds of real time
1.897450 seconds of total run time (1.897450 user, 0.000000 system)
99.84% CPU
6,056,874,280 processor cycles
0 bytes consed

And if I look at the disassembly for fact2, there is a lot of repetition, and it does look like it was inlined recursively.

--- edit

Here is a loop fact3:

(defun fact3 (x)
(declare (type integer x) (optimize (speed 3)))
(loop
for n of-type integer = x then (- n 1)
for a of-type integer = 1 then (* n a)
while (> n 0)
finally (return a)))

USER> (time (loop repeat 100000000 for f = (fact3 5) finally (return f)))
Evaluation took:
1.636 seconds of real time
1.635138 seconds of total run time (1.635138 user, 0.000000 system)
99.94% CPU
5,219,556,544 processor cycles
0 bytes consed

It could be faster but here this supports big integers. Also, please not that this is a micro benchmark, there is a ridiculous amount of iteration needed to have 2-3 seconds of run time.

> It’s not a market decision, but a government decision

Yes, the government must include CO2 tax into the price making nuclear much more viable.

So you prefer to kill the whole neighborhood and claim that it’s safe, because there are no robbers anymore.
I feel like someone stopping maintenance of a private server is way more likely than the most popular chat client at the time shutting down eventually.

In your mind, who in 2017 was still using AIM, blissfully unaware of the shutdown, only to be met with an error page and the loss of their friends forever?

I'm sure most people are like me... over a decade ago, my AIM friends mostly migrated to text messages (and a few to FB Messenger), and any impending doom of those two protocols will be long-preceded by us having already gone somewhere else.
