haha I have experienced lots of these problems while testing and tried my best to build in logic to detect 'real' motion. However since I wanted it sensitive enough to detect things like a slow moving woodlouse there will always be false detections unfortunately. One of my tests I couldn't work out why tin foil was flagging as motion, turned out it was the moon outside the window hitting it at different angles during the night!
Yeah and should you do decide to make a fork, make it paid and make some money out of it. Take some lessons from the dhcpd guy and do not work for free. Otherwise most likely Amazon will copy the software, spin it into some service and not contribute a single line of code or a single cent.

CX might have used to have a flight to Gimpo, but not now, and SQ doesn’t. I’ve flown there internationally on JAL, China Southern, Shanghai Airlines, and China Airlines, maybe some others.

I did notice that corp travel agents sometimes only search Incheon and need to be reminded that Gimpo exists.

But, I am definitely not returning to "normal" pre Covid behavior.

What would this look like, in practice? Of course on a macro scale we'll see changes like increasing adoption and acceptance of remote work/meetings, but in terms of individual behavior what can or should change?

I assume 10 years from now (barring another pandemic) we won't all be wearing masks and gloves all the time or strictly maintaining a six-foot distance from all other people, but offhand I see myself maintaining a few habits to varying degrees of strictness:

* Consistently washing my hands after touching mail or packages

* Letting packages sit by the front door for a day or two before bringing them further inside and opening them

* Pressing crosswalk buttons with my elbow

* Flushing non-automatic public toilets/urinals with my foot and opening/closing restroom doors with my foot, my elbow, or my hand and a paper towel

* Immediately showering and changing after being in public

* Wiping down groceries before putting them away

* If I need to go out in public while sick for whatever reason, wearing an N95/equivalent mask (not that I had a habit of going out while sick to begin with / I can't specifically recall having ever done so, but if I had ever needed to it certainly wouldn't have occurred to me or struck me as socially acceptable to put on a mask)

* When I return to the gym, consistently wearing gloves (I bought a bunch of full-fingered workout gloves and did this for a week or two last year just before everything shut down, and resumed the habit at home after a sliver of metal broke off of one of my dumbbell handles and got stuck in my finger)

* Maybe continuing to wear gloves while in public in general, or even just semi-regularly using hand sanitizer

As is often the case, people are much quicker to go to forums to complain about issues than to sing praises so I'm here to add a data-point trying to balance the scale.

I've been using Wayland for a few years now and it does everything I need it to do. I understand that everyone has different needs and maybe it doesn't work for everyone, but then again, neither did X11.

Some of the things that work out of the box in Wayland which didn't work in X11:

- proper HiDPI and mixed DPI support (e.g.: you can finally move windows from one screen to another in mixed DPI setups and everything scales properly)

- variable refresh rates/FreeSync (for all apps and all screens)

- no more tearing

- no more hot-plugging issues
That’s true, and so is red meat, eggs, milk, and so on.

> The overwhelming majority of Chinese people stand by their government, with levels of approval and satisfaction way higher than Americans' for theirs (95% vs 38%) [1]

And guess which country disappears citizens for “re-education” if they speak out against said government. You’d have to be daft to respond to those surveys negatively in China if there was any kind of chance your response could be traced back to you.

> The best future for China is to become the dominant world power, and you don't want that in any form or shape, am I wrong?

Yes, you are wrong. Becoming “the” dominant world power has little to do with the good of the people. Norway’s citizens are better off than US citizens on average and Norway is irrelevant on the global power scale.

Regardless, you are still confused about what people are against. It’s not China becoming a world power (it already is). It’s literally the abusive way the CCP treats dissidents. Look at the Muslim camps, look at Honk Kong, look at Winnie the Pooh.

Let it sink in that most people are happy the Chinese lives are improving. The issue is with the fascists at the top.

> it is arguably the only thing we experience directly, is that we have free will

If you unpack that statement, you'll get something like "I can't know my choice until I make it" and "I determine my choice". Both statements are compatible with determinism.

First, you cannot get information from the future about your choice, because it creates paradoxes in a deterministic universe. Second, the same physical state of your body can arise from different starting conditions, hence it's the state of your body, which uniquely determines your actions, not initial conditions of the universe.
> (being raw vegan can not have been fun)

I wonder why you say that. I enjoyed the food a lot, as well as the shopping and prep. I was surrounded by a large supportive raw vegan community, and it may have been one of the most social times of my life. It was literally fun and I would have continued if not for the health issues. And yes, some cravings. It was culturally easy for me in a way that carnivory isn't, yet here I am.

Low inflation is a catastrophe. I'm surprised you don't know that much. No, things aren't well.

> Most of the Chomsky-inspired research boils down to fitting carefully selected data into an artificial formal machine and manipulating the said machine into accepting more and more data, until the machinery ends up being turing complete therefore rendering any result trivial.

Ah, that's interesting. Because that describes very well what I felt when I read the early Chomskian works. Very cool theories and models with very little data to support them. At some point, I was wonderering whether the authors of those theories had any practical experience with languages apart from their own (English) mother tongue. And then the models became more and more complex, seemingly in an attempt to make them somehow work with real data, and at the end they became so complex that any data could be matched and no scientifically verifiable predictions could be made.
I'm sorry, but I refuse to feel guilty and I don't see why anyone should. When I go to the store and buy some tuna I expect that it was responsibly fished. If it wasn't then it's the fault of our government and regulation, regular customer shouldn't be worried about that. The same with meat - when I buy some I expect that animals weren't abused and beaten at farms, if they were then there's an issue in the system.
Sir Roger Penrose on Cyclic Conformal Cosmology
Will a little stupid, you could add an AMD card to your workstation and use that to drive your display. Then use the Nvidia card for compute only. That would also free up some memory and compute resources on the Nvidia card.

You can even get an old model of the AMD card. It only need to run the desktop stuff, so you can buy a five year old used card.
"You left out the 8-tracks."

Yeah, I know it was deliberate on two counts. First, my post was pretty long and second, the topic was about Lou Ottens of Philips, 8-track was RCA and others. Besides, 8-track never achieved the large following that the cassette did. Where I saw it being used most (and that was its professional variant) was in radio and TV stations for audio inserts, etc. The number of times I saw it used in say a car was trivial when compared with cassettes. That said, the quality was much better but ultimately it was doomed because it was too big and other commercial considerations.

"<…>small reels of full-size 0.25 inch tape (you still had to thread them yourself).<…>"

I remember those, the quality was pretty terrible and most of them didn't even have electronic [RF-driven] erase head, instead they used a permanent magnet erase head for the purpose. I think everyone was pleased to see the end of them.

"Remember Woodstock came out on stereo LP's, 8-tracks and cassettes,<…>"

Didn't know that but I'm hardly knowledgeable about 8-track releases. I saw the Woodstock movie sometime in 1970 and about four or five times since. I've been meaning to get a copy but not managed to do so yet. It really is a must-own movie given that incredible performance by Hendrix.

"<…>By 1969 mono vinyl was not for any major releases.<…>"

That's my recollection too.

"<…>But FM still cost extra for years to come so plenty of cars were still shipped with the tradtitonal stock AM radio only.<…>"

I'm very familiar with that situation, in the early 1970s I had a lot to do with the transmitting side of FM broadcasting.

"<…>Capitol records, Sergeant Pepper was the only one made at the time.<…>"

There were very few pre-recorded ones around where I was at the time, they were more popular in some areas of the world than others.

"<…>Then Ampex got kicked out of the consumer market<…>"

OK, I can't recall that incident at all. All I know is that the market narrowed for 8-track pretty quickly then essentially it all but disappeared (I never owned a player so I suppose my interest wasn't there to note). Anyway, Ampex wasn’t in the domestic recorder business much after the early 1960s, essentially it had become a pro-recorder only company. My first experience of Apex was with its VR-1000A and VR2000 2" quadruplex machines and the multi-track audio recorders.

"<…>And they had just invented Memorex tape, before that you could not record a live rock concert very well.<…>"

Well, Memorex tape was better than Ampex 406/407 and especially the rotten 'melting' Ampex 456 which shedded the coating in a sticky gooey mess. It was a disaster.

"<…>The Dark Side of the Moon, which was Quadrophonic in concert and also available quad on vinyl.<…>"

Wasn’t aware of quad on vinyl on that recording. About two years ago, I went to a friend's place who has an excellent hi-fi setup, he owned the vinyl recording of The Dark Side of the Moon and I the CD one. We did a critical listening test between the two recordings (I'm not going to enter the debate about which recording sounds best).

Quad was just too much mucking about to take off.
“Why is touchscreen better” wasn’t the question. Point, directed at parent post, is buttons aren’t inherently better.

I agree, it seems to be that the spectrum at this point is pretty close to losing clinical significance, I know it’s been rained down a bit in the past few years.

To me it seemed that w/e training or reinforcement of our neurological networks happens is interrupted in some manner for most signals other than those which say makes you extremely good at music or maths.

It never felt like the next step in human evolution to me but always like they were caged and found a single avenue of escape.

> Do any desktop system handle mixed DPI well?

This works today out-of-the-box in Wayland as long as the applications are Wayland native (e.g.: not being run through XWayland).
Many many comments here overlook that there are very good natural and vegan sources of B12:

Shiitake mushrooms are an excellent source of B12 (and it's in the same form as the B12 from beef, liver, or fish, so it has a very good bioavailability). It's not widely known even by vegans.

For both vegans and omnivores, the easiest way to keep an adequate level of B12 is with supplements. Omnivores have them fed to their steaks/cheese/milk during intensive farming.

The best of best B12 supplement is hydroxycobalamin, if you can find it in sublingual tablets (it's not readily available in every countries, but you can import it).

I've been running Wayland for a few years now, and while I wouldn't say I've had a _perfect_ experience, I don't think I've had a time when logging out and trying an X session worked any better.

X has always had niggles, which I don't miss.

So right now, it's very much at the same level as many other system features: consistently works, and maybe the reason I'm not singing its praises more loudly is because I've come to take that for granted.

Memory tests for ADHD; ML for medication and substances
Hi everyone!

I built https://moodmap.app/ originally around the issues I had to work through when managing my ASD and ADHD. There's still a lot of work to do, I think it's pretty neat so far though.

Love to answer any questions and talk to anyone who wants to give me there own thoughts on how they manage ADHD or how they use nootropics in general!

Hit me up at https://calendly.com/moodmapapp and we can have a chat.

I've been a bit all over the place over the past 2 months with getting a new job - but i feel like I'm getting more of what I want this to be together :)

Just as a background into Moodmap. I want to try and make ADHD easier to understand, and nootropics to do with concentration measurable. In general I want to see if i can build a tool to help myself with ADHD and therefore others.

Privacy is also really a key aspect of doing this. I am trying to implement SOLID and follow best practices outside of this.

Lots of bugs and things to iron out over time, trying to build everything in the open to see what people think (and because I enjoy the feedback!!!)

It's not like you're supposed to do any memory allocation on a 8-bit embedded system. C is really the right choice for AVR microcontroller.
It uses a homegrown C compiler; the Go compiler is actually derived from it.
All of us are frustrated about the company's (lack of) leveling system

A previous employer took the explicit decision not to have formal levels because they didn't want people to fixate on individual promotion, instead to focus on the organisations goals. To me that seems in conflict with some basic commercial forces operating in the market. You can possibly pull that off if you're also offering a job for life with salary that keeps pace with the market, and amazingly interesting work so noone ever gets bored and just fancies a change. Bell Labs or Xerox or a legendary company like those could do it. But very few companies like that exist now, and this wasn't one of them.
Mage Is My Favorite Make
For 2) last time I looked I couldn't find a way to have a memory contract with the kernel that allowed for a given allocation to be evicted at will by the kernel while also telling the application that has happened. This would be ideal for apps that can grow their cache unbounded (e.g., photo processing apps with each photo, browsers with each tab) but can also regenerate that cache at will. You end up having tunables for how much cache to hold in RAM which is never correct as depending on what else the user is doing there may be a lot or very little free RAM.

A lot of people argue that there is no point in getting acquainted with toxic office politics and instead one should leave for a more healthy work place.

Theoretically I support this sentiment but - as far as I can tell there are practically no work places without toxic office politics. The only difference is the degree to which it impacts the overall work experience.

Also engineers are traditionally placed at the end of the pecking order. I intentionally say "placed" because it is not so much a result of the individual engineer's personality as it is already a fundamental result of usual office politics.

Engineers suffer from various systemic weaknesses which are difficult and sometimes impossible to overcome. For example regarding office communication. IT is usually considered a separate part of the company which receives orders and is expected to deliver.

Also IT is full of youngsters who willingly succumb to office politics manipulating them into believing that overhours, a modest salery and fearful obedience to management are virtues paving their way to being respected, thanked and provided with a career. So, as a "woke" engineer you not just quarreling with outside forces but also have to effectively compete with colleagues in a frustrating race to the bottom.

Moreover it's the same form of B12 as found in beef, liver, fish, etc, so you have no worries of bioavailability.
