You are missing very important points here:

1. national-socialism seams to have equality as a target. But this equality accounts only for a small group of superior people. In case of Hitler that was the aryan, german race.

2. Those points and the reality are two completetly different things

In fact Nazi-Germany was not socialist but capitalist. Rich people and companies became richer. The only people that were expropriated were jews, political enemies and minoritys. The jews were working as slaves until death to provide wealth for a capitalist upper class. Siemens for example increased their turnover by a factor of 5. Single persons became incredible rich. At the same time, the normal citizens of germany had to live under the worst circumstances because of the war. (You would not believe what my grandma experienced...)

The core idea of national-socialism is inhumane.
Who ever was not productive like disabled people, or people with mental illnesses(which includes homosexuals etc.) got killed.
The Nazis propagated the rule of the strongest and racism. They propagated social darwinism.

That stands completly against everything the left parties in Germany , even socialism, stands for. The main target is equality and equal oppurtunities for everyone. The main target is a humane society. One of the main points of our left wing, is to fight any form of facism to prevent anything similiar to Hitler from happening ever again.

The right wing partys are the Heirs of the Nazis. They want to exclude minorities and restrict their rights.
They propagate racism.
Thanks, makes a lot of sense. I guess the latter kind is closer to the above.
Hours trying to install? What do you mean?

I do think that the steam's fee of 30% feels strange, but all the infrastructure they provide is pretty sweet. How do you update the zip file you downloaded? Do you trust every developer to keep their download servers running forever so you can always download it later?
> getting stuff to function correctly and reliably

Hilariously, I wouldn't even say that modern software does that well either.
I feel that's disingenuous. It wasn't the same way on both sides. This kind of false equivalence crops up in a lot of places but it needs to be called out.

Many high profile Remainers claimed Leavers were/are racist, ignorant, far-right, small minded, hated all foreigners, didn't know what they were voting for, were old and thus should have their vote be ignored, and worse.

Leavers claimed Remainers were ... what? Afraid of independence? That's about the worst of it from what I can remember. There was not by any stretch of the imagination the same kind of smear campaign alleging terrible motives and terrible souls.

And now this. Parler and Gab within a few months of each other. It's not left wing outlets getting hacked and dumped, is it? I'm afraid there's no equivalency here: whether it's the USA or UK, it's always the same: it's always the left attacking the right. They do not view opposition of any sort as legitimate any more and are determined to destroy conservatism by any means possible, both legal and illegal. Nothing like it exists in reverse.
Heating up the debate with no chance for consensus is/was one of the strategy's of the KGB to rip a democratic society apart.

> They were the ideas which Hitler was to find embarrassing when the big industrialists and landlords began to pour money into the party coffers, and of course nothing was ever done about them.

I think that's fair, but I would characterize it this way:

The Nazis started out "socialist" in the traditional sense of collective ownership, and ended up "socialist" in the modern sense (popularized by Bernie Sanders) of a strong social safety net.

(That safety net being restricted, of course, to those the Nazis deemed worthy.)
I still find it a bit awkward to use python just to run some commands in sequence with some massaging of input/output data and parameters based on simple logic. bash scripts are great for that. And in that case it’s still a good idea to have automated testing instead of relying on running the script a few times to ensure it behaves as it should. I’ll definitely give this a try :)

I do agree though that if you need extensive massaging of output or arguments, python can help and make the whole thing easier.

Well yea and no, ideally you are not “throwing” that RAM away, you are paying for a more flexible software that can be more easily changed in the future, or to be able to pay much less for your developers, often both.

Nobody wants slow software, its just cheaper, in upfront and maintenance costs. Going with analogies, its like a race car mechanic complaining that a car is using like 3 cylinders where it could have 8. Sure but some people have other priorities I guess.

The problem is, most if not all Android devices do not provide some secure-enclave like architecture where the crypto key to unlock is secured by hardware design, but rather simple software solutions where the master unlock key resides in memory. So if you happen to have any malware combined with a security exploit, they might access your vault without requiring a fingerprint.

I do not trust any android device with my vault for exactly that reason.
I am afraid this is far more common. At least Brazil, Spain and the UK are exactly like that, if not worse.
Wow, even the printer is fast in itself.
I don't think young JS devs know nothing else. There are still good programs out there, & you only need to experience it once

I get annoyed with Windows having the cursor randomly stutter for a split second rather than smooth motion. Or Teams taking half a second to load the conversation I clicked on. Or Powershell taking 3 seconds between initial render & giving me a damn prompt. Or the delay between me pressing the Windows button & the start menu appearing. None of these delays exist on my Linux machine where I've had the freedom to select the programs I use

I've made fast UIs with Javascript & React. Like all optimization it comes down to sitting down & profiling. Not taking "this is as fast it it can be" as an answer. In short, saying "Javascript is just slow" is part of the problem

Blaming languages is chasing a fad. I deal with it when people think the service I'm working on in Ruby is going to be slow because Ruby is slow. Nope, architectures are slow. If you know what you're doing Ruby will do just fine at doing nothing, which is really the trick behind speed
I see incredible value in IA collection of books, videos and software. OTOH I'm puzzled by lack of organization.

Take for example this newer document: https://archive.org/details/manualzilla-id-5695071 The document has horrible name and useless tags, and the content seems to be only section 2 of some SW manual. How would I ever hope to find it if I needed that exact document?

Obviously such huge archive cannot be categorized and annotated by small team, so it would make sense to crowdsource the labeling process. Yet, as registered user I can only flag the item, or write a review. Why doesn't IA let users label content and build their own curated collections of items?

Are you sure the perceived difference isn't from switching from a phone that you've been using for a while to a new one? In my experience, both android and iphones feel blazing fast when you pull them out of the box, and sluggish later on when you've been using them for a year or two and they're loaded up with all your junk.
You can also just get/use exact answers with the `accumulation_tree` package that Python `tdigest` impl uses, though for large windows a B-tree is faster than a red-black ranked/instrumented binary tree. Either tree also scales better than heap pairs to multiple quantiles per moving window (like 5%, 50%, 95%). Python's `blist` package may not have the exact API you need to build from, but it is very close. (`blist` also does not optimize for the "histogramming case" where there can be many duplicate values, IIRC. Instead each value gets its own independent slot in the data structure.)
The trouble is that bash is necessary to setup python. For instance, the lingua franca of Docker is bash (well sh, but you should obviously change that).

I've been resisting learning (any more) bash for a while now, but I think I'm going to have to. This looks like it could reduce some of my terror at the insanities of shell scripts (why does one even need two quote characters that do different things?)

Anybody else remember the speedup loop.

My personal policy is that if an extension doesn't have a very limited scope (for example adblockers that need full access to everything), it has to be open source and I'll install it from source to control when extensions are updated.

From MCU programmers, I know you can make even a microcontroller run around a Xeon if you know how you can squeeze every cycle of performance, and exploit particularly hard tasks to optimise.

Write a riddle for a CPU with 100% cache miss rate, confusing the prefetcher to clog the memory bus, and enforcing a synchronous memory access. Such thing is very likely to run literally with an MCU speed on an x86 PC CPU.
If it was fast, it might be a meteor fracturing, and the fractured parts slowing down very quickly. It's hard to judge directions and speeds accurately against an empty blue sky, so a sudden change in velocity could easily be misinterpreted.
It's the paradox of tolerance.

If you allow the people who want everyone not like them to be forcibly marginalized or killed to have the same rights as all others, they will relentlessly try to flip that around until they're the only ones with those rights. We have to stop such behavior at almost any cost. This was made blindingly obvious to the majority of the population during WWII.

It's a damn shame how so many are forgetting those lessons now. It could very well lead to something even worse than that war. This is why what you seem to think should be "common knowledge by now" isn't.
A culture that didn't do that at all would of course be doomed to failure. If people think it's all about luck, they won't make an effort. In reality it's of course not only about luck at all.

Yes you do need lucky genetics (and insane amounts of hard work) if you want to join the NBA, but if you're willing to work hard and make sacrifices it's more than enough to be born average (not too poor, not too sick), you'll be able to have a very decent life.
GP is referring to when you ping the router in the path itself, not when you send pings through it.

WSL2 has better performance for accessing files in the WSL filesystem than WSL1 does (partly because the WSL files are stored differently).

But it has worse performance for accessing native Windows files than WSL1 does.

In any case I think an assertion that WSL2 has no performance issues needs a serious citation (as opposed to no citation which you gave) - you're making a claim about all possible situations. As always, a statement that "no x exists" requires seriously more proof than "at least one x does exist".
Isn't the flipside of that coin that leftism is more or less just plain good and ceases to be leftism the moment it deviates from what we think of as good, ie. basically a No True Scotsman?

One reason the Marxist kind of thought pattern is dangerous is because of something like that. The ideas in and of themselves can sound good and appealing - who wants poor people to live in squalor and so on? But if we look at what natural and sexual selection ingrains in biological life - it is by necessity kin-preferring, competitive and in non-eusocial social creatures, status seeking, for example. Things that prefer non-kin and don't compete just die out.

In that light, a sound philosophy would understand that those things can't be eradicated by human will, take the impulses and hone something constructive out of them. But Marxist thought is rationalist in the sense that it thinks doctrine and reason can mold human nature to whatever shape, and then achieve their utopistic ends. That, of course, cannot happen because we're built from competitive, kin-preferring, status-seeking genes, not utopistic ones. Marxism is incompatible with biological life, and to get biological life to comply for any length of time, it must be forced constantly, or the utopian society degrade into tyranny, which has thus far happened every single time these things have been tried. But it's never done properly, so we should try again.

There are companies out there today (like https://www.mykeeper.com) doing something similar in this space with Digital/online memorials where you can create pages for documenting & sharing people's lives.

There is no proof that I'm aware of that all telecom companies and very likely all major tech companies are spying for the US goverent.

In theory yes, in practice this almost never happens. 95% of the teams just quickly mash the product together and peace out before anyone notices what mess did they make. And then you have some poor Indian / African / Eastern European team trying to untangle and improve it.

Seen it literally tens of times over a course of 19 years career.

> Nobody wants slow software, its just cheaper, in upfront and maintenance costs

That is true. But nowadays it's more like taking a loan from the bank and running away to an uninhabited island to avoid paying it off.
You're probably not the average consumer though.
But that's my point - it's hard just getting it to work. Getting it to work fast is next level. Games are notorious for garbage tier SW engineering practices, bugs, ship and forget, and it's all about making something look like you'd expect it vs. making it correct - just completely different goals.
> Why would anyone think otherwise?

The standard for libel varies depending whether the person bringing suit is a public figure or not. So it’s not a stretch for a layperson to imagine that the same might be true for these tapes, especially given the murky nature of many releases (some clandestine, some deliberate). Also this law is relatively recent.

Not saying it’s right, just saying one can imagine confusion on this issue.

You,re pointing the blame at a source of EVEN WORSE performance issues, but it doesn,t remove the slowdown described.

Plain HTML renders several order of magnitudes faster than post-load JS rendering, and yes, it is noticeable, especially if you account for variable connection speeds.

Most web devs develop on localhost and test on some of the best connections you can get today, leaving network performance testing as an afterthought at best... and it shows.
I don't think the court ordered them to deliver the source code.

I didn't read the full decision linked by @ernesth, but this part says that they have to deliver two "masters", one drm free and one for Steam.

Sur la livraison des formats manquants :

— ordonner à Frogwares Ireland de lui livrer les deux masters du jeu 'The Sinking city’ sur format PC DRM Free et Steam sous astreinte de 50.000 euros par jour de retard à compter du 5 ème jour suivant la notification par e-mail de la décision à intervenir

I think the meaning of master in this case is Gold Master : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Software_release_life_cycle#RT...
We just moved a whole org over to Bitwarden anyway because of the way they threatened to hold free accounts hostage ("Pay us or you will not be able to access your password from mobile (or desktop) anymore").

We had previously actually planned to switch to a paid plan with them by July anyway (to nobody's surprise, management can be extremely slow to approve these things) - but their deadline was March and they way they forced our hand got management to act surprisingly quickly in transitioning us to Bitwarden.

I wonder which, excuse me, brain-dead executive honestly thought waving a pistol in users' faces like an amateur highwayman to force them to pay was by any stretch of the imagination an acceptable way to improve user confidence, especially in such a sensitive area where they store (access to) your most personal and private secrets. The same holds true for these trackers. I mean, I see all these weird decisions and just ask myself, who are these people in positions of significant power of larger companies who make such obvious, crazy bad management decisions? Whenever I meet them, they all seem so normal and well-dressed ;-) Boggles my mind every time.

I must say, for years now I've had the impression all the amazing products that LogMeIn (who own LastPass) touches, get toxic for the end-user quickly. Hamachi was so great in the olden days. GoToMeeting couldn't be rescued even by Covid. They had, at one point, one of the greatest remote desktop solutions around (which you could even completely self-host) but they were basically killed by TeamViewer because of their boneheaded licensing decisions.

Of course, TeamViewer has been going down the same drain and has significantly killed mass appeal since their IPO, which leads me to believe that this is just the "circle of liiiive"...
