It wouldn’t have to be that cheap though. If they sold Exchange only plans for $1-2 / user / month I could probably convince 10x the users it’s worth it. And they never deal with the customers.

It’s MUCH easier to sell someone another product at that point too. That’s literally the strategy (cross selling) Ballmer used to increase sales so much that he ended up owning part of MS.
> Do any desktop system handle mixed DPI well?

MacOS handles it very well, moving a window from a high-DPI display to a low-DPI display works perfectly.

I'm not sure about how Windows handles mixed-DPI, but it handles DPI changes mostly OK. I only access my Windows machines via RDP, so sometimes they get a high-DPI display and sometimes they get a low-DPI one. Apart from one program (there are per-program settings available in Windows to help fix scaling issues) everything seems to handle it fine.

The article is extremely short on data related to the headline, and in fact it's just a tiny blurb in the introductory paragraph. Would love to read more about these stats.

On an unrelated note, the person being interviewed really expresses a binary world view of left vs right with no in between, which is discouraging.
My top down approach for writing software design docs:
1. Business objectives
2. Users and use cases
3. Architecture <- design decision, performance expectation, wide picture of the system
4. Infrastructures <- you may mention environment and networks here, like k8, aws or gcp.
5. Application <- ui, flow, activity diagram, algorithm here
6. Data <- now you can place UML here

As for code level documentation, writing readable codes is enough as documentation. If some guys can understand what the codes do by reading the codes, documentation won't be needed. How to write readable codes? A good reference for this is Clean Code book. If documentation is really needed, Java Doc style is worth to follow.

Hope this helps
The number one reason I support the right to own firearms is protection against the state. If it was as easy to own and buy guns in Hong Kong as it is in the USA the current situation with the destruction of democracy and the imposition of authoritarian rule would have been a much fairer fight.

Beyond that, my extended family is almost entirely based in the Deep South of the US, one of my cousins is a professional firearm dealer, and another works for one of the largest sellers of hunting apparel. One of my best friends owns about 50 guns. The number of irresponsible uses of guns in my family and friends group are zero. Guns are a tool like anything else - if it’s legal to own a chainsaw, a hunting knife, or a sledgehammer then it is not ridiculous to have licensed responsible adults to own guns.

I applaud the sale of firearms and the continuing spread of the culture to all people, races, and genders. The more people learn responsible use of guns and own them, the safer they will be, the safer society will be, and the less likely some idiot group of politicians will ban them.
And that’s really the right viewpoint: Monster, Antichrist, etc.

Apparently they went the other way and instead of multiple Hubble-equivalent telescopes they build one which has equivalent sharpness of images but a much larger field of view, so can take images 100 times as large as what Hubble can.

I was stunned while purchasing my most recent firearm (about 6 months ago). I watched multiple middle aged, nicely dressed ladies purchasing guns. One lady even had the new gun taken away from her because she was pointing it at others (not on purpose) while the store employee processed the transaction.

I can't blame them, this past year we've all witnessed that our society can quickly change into something that is unrecognizable.
> The $1.9 trillion in stimulus just passed in the US is a drop in the bucket compared to the Federal Reserve’s unprecedented $7 trillion balance sheet:

Not at all. The Fed's balance sheet expansion is widely believed to be ultimately temporary, to be wound down over time once conditions normalize. Moreover, its expansion has all taken the form of collateralized loans, which is why the linked graph is of the asset side of a balance sheet.

Fiscal policy, however, does not create any such assets owned by the Treasury. The required deficit spending is fundamentally unsecured, uncollateralized credit, even though the US federal government has an excellent credit rating.

By in large in countries with well functioning governments, guns are kept off the streets.
It's disappointing to me that the person being interviewed doesn't believe or understand how she's aligned with good conservatives and libertarians on this issue, or much of 'the right' as she puts it.

Those groups fear the government roughly as much as she does now, and that's by-and-large why they own guns.

She doesn't seem to reach a second-order level of thinking and realize that common fear — she just sticks to "my marginalization makes me fear the government and own guns" without thinking of why they own guns. It's sad because there could be much more common ground, which leads to more considerate dialogue.
Even ignoring the incredibly false claim that we used gold/silver systems for most of human history, what is mining gold or silver if not "printing money"? Why is that considered acceptable by gold/silver proponents?
There are a number of things you can do to help.

* EMDR - have someone adequately trained assist.

* CBT

* Third Wave therapy

* In consultation with a doctor, alter meds, supplements, what you eat

* Proper exercise

* Elimination/addition of certain foods, drinks, nutrients, or meds

Jocko, whom I think has a good handle on PTSD, swears by limiting intake/fasting and not eating crap food. Also: exercise and self-motivation.
Salaries are always adjusted to the inflation if there's a free market.

Depending on how hard is the inflation, you receive yearly, semi yearly, monthly, weekly or in extreme cases daily adjustments. Your salary updates also include the expected inflation.

That's of course when the economy is performing well. If the economy is slowing in an inflationary environment, you may easily end up on the wrong side since every update is actually a salary renegotiation and in a slowing economy your job might receive pay cuts in real terms.
The equities and real estate markets don’t exactly look appealing right now; I can either watch inflation slowly eat at savings while waiting for better market conditions, or potentially watch a significant portion of net worth evaporate when a mega correction occurs - which is looking very likely.

Homes seem to have had consistent carrying costs over the decades, and that is what determines the CPI. Yes, prices have gone up, but (a) interest rates have dropped, and (b) people are getting a lot more housing for their money (e.g., (average) square footage up).

The solution should be better police (probably a major police reform), not more guns. You don't solve public safety by arming everyone.
In countries where gun ownership is hard to obtain legally criminals have much lower rates of gun ownership. Banning legal gun ownership does not prevent all criminals from accessing guns but it does prevent most of them from accessing guns. Importantly it prevents for the most part gun involvement in crimes of passion.
I think we must be talking past each other or something. The purchasing power of every single fiat currency has trended down since the elimination of hard money standards, so as far as I can tell, every single government is printing away the value of its money.

I don't see how that's "failing to do so" if "so" refers to "printing away the value of their money"?

> I believe I've said something that's easy to understand, at least without bad faith.

I’m pretty sure I understand what you’re saying - "this change only affects creation of new repos”?

The responder isn’t missing your point, they’re disagreeing with it - they're pointing out that anybody who needs to work with a repo now needs to explicitly configure the name of the canonical branch, where previously they could safely assume the default was “master”; ergo it affects anybody who uses a repo for as long as it exists, not just the repo creator and not just at repo creation time.

> adding changes in a backward-compatible way so that not to change the expected behavior

The expected behaviour until recently was that “git checkout master” would take you to the canonical source branch - this behaviour has changed, in a backward-incompatible way (any code which worked in the past by using that command now needs to be changed)
Those countries have massively more stringent rules around gun ownership, and much lower gun ownership rates. Not at all comparable.

If you say inflation of consumer staples matters, while inflation of assets does not matter, you are accepting a two tier economy between consumers and asset holders. Stock ownership has become more available recently because of technology, but the more important asset class to most people is housing. That's because housing is also shelter, and by inflating part of the market for shelter - owner-occupied dwellings - beyond the reach of many you increase demand for rentable shelter. I don't think this distinction between two kinds of inflation is helpful, especially when one is considered bad and the other benign.
If there are currents, there ought to be eddies as well. Where there are eddies, you usually find flotsam. Is it too far fetched that there could be regions with seemingly strange behavior, if observed individually and isolated?
I think you’ve got some legitimate concerns there, but a lot of what you say doesn’t make much sense to me. Mortgages in their entirety aren’t part of CPI because mortgages are an investment with a return. They’re not a consumed good, you still have your house after you’ve paid it off, although some CPI calculations separate or rent or a rental component of mortgages. Of course it can be included in overall household spending, and changes in household mortgage payments are an important economic indicator but CPI is a specific thing with a specific meaning.

Printing money by itself is not ok, it matters an awful lot what is done with it. Your argument is classic “if it’s ok to do this thing in specific circumstances to solve a particular problem, why not do it all the time for everything as much as possible”. Kind of weird argument, what can I say except, er, no.

You’re quite right the cost for producing goods is falling and stable prices just mean our money is falling in value, it just doesn’t seem that way because these effects cancel out. The article is making the exact same argument.

I think where were likely to agree is that if we’re going to rescue financial markets and corporations in hard times, why not also help ordinary people? If corporate welfare is ok, how come personal welfare isn’t? In some situations like an economic collapse or like Coronavirus deficit spending is essential, I don’t buy your skepticism of that, but I do think it needs to be more equitably deployed. By and large this is what actually happened this time around with wage support here in the UK and direct payments to households in the US. There are arguments to be had about the level and Lana e of this kind of spending, but I think they’re both needed to at least some degree.

The article is about the UK though and I’m a Brit and we do have a fairly well developed social welfare system compared to the US and many aspects of it such as the NHS are much less controversial than in the US. This comes from our experiences in the world wars when the entire country was expected to come together for a common cause. It became untenable after that to throw people out on the street with no support and just say “Thanks for the help, see you in 20 years for the next world war. Until then you’re on your own.” It was also about national security. Far too many people were unfit for national service due to malnutrition and disease. Ensuring a fit healthy population became essential to our military preparedness.

Wayland as of writing has my use-cases covered: hw accelerated video decode in Browsers (FF and Chrome), Browser screensharing (via pipewire) and via VNC (conveniently surfaced to gnome-settings if gnome-remote-desktop is present). Most current distributions do not carry all necessary packages in their defaults last I checked, so one had to have some interest and flip one or two browser config flags.

The (largely theoretical) argument is asymmetric warfare where the dictator and their family/sycophants/officers need to be constantly preoccupied with a credible threat of an assassin around every corner. This asymmetric warfare is then sufficiently destabilizing that (when combined with sanctions and external pressure) it leads to a successful overthrow.

Of course, it's not realistic that the civilian populace will be capable of engaging in open-field combat with the military.

It’s easy to grow marijuana, for instance. I can do it. I can not manufacture a gun easily. In countries where legal gun ownership is hard to obtain they have much lower rates of crimes involving guns while at the same time having ready access to illegal drugs. Your counterpoint is not apt.

Liberalizing gun ownership has been researched to death and everybody just ignores the research as convenient for their personal opinion. The stats repeatedly say the same several things:

* crimes in general go down as more people carry firearms legally, but by far less than most firearm advocates claim.

* though, the most dramatic of that decrease is related to violent crime as some arguments might claim.

* when firearms become more lawfully common police are slightly more likely to be victims of violent crime.

* the numbers related to crime change as a result of change to gun laws tend to be tiny even for high population density large cities indicating many arguments on the subject are exaggerated to fit a narrative.
Really? Because I have a guy screaming burnt into my retinas for watching that horrible video from New Jersey where a couple taunt a man who snaps, gets his guns and shoots them both.

Yes, generic functions and multimethods are one solution to the expression problem, and they're pretty different from Smalltalk-like OOP. It's a shame they aren't more widely adopted - I think only Julia, Nim, and Clojure have them as a feature.

Actually, if not for some historical accidents, we could have Dylan in place of Java today... I sometimes dream about such a world: functional core, CLOS-like generic functions and multimethods, sane multiple inheritance, syntax-case-like macros, native AOT compiler, sane module system... OpenDylan - the implementation I played with - is slow as molasses, but with even a tiny fraction of the work put into Java it could be made fast enough to rival C++. It's one of the most striking wasted chances in the history of programming.
