This is a huge problem. Back in the '90s, Georgia managed to solve it. They said "we will start a state lottery. The funds will be exclusively used to provide an educational benefit that does not currently exist." This prevented other funds from being reallocated away from education.

The thing they funded was the HOPE scholarship, which allowed every high schooler in Georgia with a B average to attend a public college in-state for free. It's how I got out of Georgia Tech without loans, and it's also why a certain age range in Georgia considers Governor Miller to be basically a saint.

Manpages give you the precise info you need.

Info manuals (mentioned in most manpages, usually triggered by info <command>) are precisely what you're looking for.
Complaining about the manpages for `find` is maybe the worst example you could make, since `find` has surprisingly many examples on its pages. Open the pages and search for `examples` and you'll see what I mean.
There's just no way the lack of this tunnel acts as a limiting factor on oil export.
There was a huge debate some time ago about Christianity vs. Ásatrú on Alþingi (the Icelandic general assembly). During this debate news broke that an eruption had started in Svínahraun—a few dozen km east of the current Geldingadalur eruption. Allegedly some proponents of Ásatrú suggested that the eruption was the fault of the gods not liking the fact that this debate was happening. However this argument was quickly dismissed as the debate was already happening on top of an ancient lava field and the debaters couldn’t fathom what must have angered the gods that caused it to erupt in the ancient times.

Personally, I haven't seen a desire in companies to skirt GDPR. Rather companies just want to be compliant and not have to worry about data breaches or reputational damage from their marketing tools. This example with Backblaze is exactly what companies are trying to avoid.
> On the second case (a more socialist POV), we need to challenge how artists are getting a revenue in our society because it's clearly not working.

This can be exploited. Imagine if I wrote a program that simply outputs a string of 1000 random notes and durations and published this as a song every day, with a random UUID for the title. This is technically art, but is it the same as your favorite musician?

Now if someone is buying each of those songs for a million dollars each, that's between the artist and person making the purchase.

Should society subsidize that though? How do you draw the line?
Slightly off topic but... as someone that is moving out of the city and even a few states over does anyone have any advice on home buying? Would it be better to buy now or rent for a bit and then buy? Is that like asking what stocks to invest in or is it more predictable than that? I have zero experience with this sort of thing.

I am curious, at what point will the features stop? Do we keep adding features until Gitlab becomes impossibly complex to use or onboard anyone? Why isn't Gitlab built like a modular app - add what you want but core should be simple as possible and feature complete. I am afraid but this is how a lot of applications die. Gitlab is starting to get bulky and obese already.

I created a redux wrapper for my side projects. I used it in 2 projects already and so far it does the job.

The thing was to have a no-boilerplate library for state management that is compatible with redux. Then, when complex reducers or sagas are needed I can just replace it with redux with out re-writing all state management code.

> the income from the largest channels subsidizes the servers needed to transcode the millions of videos that will only ever get a single view.

Exactly. I had 3 different channels, in different points in my life, but the fact that I could, for free, upload a video and have it hosted and then (possibly) watched worldwide on almost any device, it's bonkers. If I had to create an app or pay for storage/upload/etc, it would be impossible.

You know it would be great if they shipped default Ubuntu with a big flyer that said "don't like snaps? you're not the target demographic"
Thanks, no problem! Congratulations on the success of your post!
Which, relevantly, is something where Zig excels. OOM is just another ordinary error to be handled, and indeed is an error that can be leveraged on a much more fine-grained basis than an OS-level allocation. Being able to gracefully handle OOM conditions is a dramatic improvement over the average C codebase; enforcing that graceful handling, as Zig does by requiring callers to handle errors as part of the return type and by including allocation failures in that category, is a godsend.

And taking this further, since Zig's convention around allocators is for them to be an explicit argument of all functions needing to allocate, it's trivial to write tests specifically to validate correct behavior in OOM conditions. There's even a custom allocator in the standard library for exactly this purpose.
Probably wouldn't be too hard to do myself, but it love to be able to use the touch bar as a clipboard. Basically have a button that stores whatever on your clipboard at the moment onto the bar making a growing list of tiles, tap on the tile to load it back on to the clipboard, and hold the tile to remove it.
Maybe if credit unions and the like had accounts where each deposit triggers a message about how that deposit is making them more money, and contrast it to the zero gain of just spending it...

Text, email, or paper mail, something that reminds people that what they're doing will benefit them could help slowly change attitudes where possible.

(I know there are some people who play for fun, who don't figure into this; and others who are habitual players, who probably won't listen; but some could learn and benefit from this.)

I thought it was understood that choosing a less popular language meant hiring people for fundamentals and then letting them ramp on on your language. Did the client choose Scala thinking they would just hire "Scala people"?

In the 80s the malls usually had 1) an arcade, 2) at least one bookstore, sometimes two, 3) a toy/hobby store where you could buy RPGs and wargames, 4) a music store or two, and 5) 'food' of some kind. Good memories, though I rarely go to a mall these days.
I find it strange that for one of the largest transactions most people will ever make, they choose to use an advisor with little or no real education in the subject, with whom they have a relationship that's steeped in moral hazard.
I'd love to understand the brain's capacity to fool itself.

Sometime in my 30s I discovered I could "make my ears retract involuntarily". I'll think about pulling them back without actually trying to do so, and at some time in the near future that I can't anticipate, they'll retract.
Zig is a C-like language that isn't memory safe. A UAF bug looks the same as it does in C where you manually call the allocator to get a block of memory, manually free it, then try to perform an access via a pointer to it.
Fascinating, thanks!

I had never seen/used `f` to navigate within a line like this -- I'm usually just typing /<string> and hitting enter to scan forward.
Sorry for your loss, and apology to bring up what I'm about too.

Since you didn't contribute anything for this house, why should it go to you? Why shouldn't it go back to society at large?

I understand that we've all grown with this cultural idea of legacy and inheritance, but I find it more and more problematic and morally unjustifiable as I get older. It just seems like as much as we try to create equal opportunities for all children, we keep around this massive inequality where children whose parents have more wealth pass it along and create privilege classes, giving some unfair advantages over others.

Already we see that the wealthier the parents the more successful the child, due to better education and care. To also have them inherit wealth they didn't amass themselves seems a tad too much in my opinion.

I can see some reasonable scenarios, like when the child is still a dependent, or leaving behind a certain amount of sentimental goods, but beyond that it seems unfair to me.

I tend to be very much aligned with the idea of equal opportunities, unequal outcomes. Each one of us should be able to compete on an even playing field with the rest for a bigger slice of the pie, and so if you contribute more to making the pie bigger you deserve a bigger slice and can enjoy it for yourself. Your kids though didn't, and shouldn't have unfair advantages of opportunities. Similarly, I think everyone deserves a minimum, which allows you to again have the necessary safety net to be able to equally compete with others. Traditionally this safety net has been provided through these inheritance schemes and the parents you have determined if you get a safety net or not.

I know all about application file systems overlays, I was part of a startup that shipped a multiplatform one. They have many many problems because they blow in a fixed set of dependencies as a monolith. It's a similar to the difference between image-based deployment and configuration management-based deployment: granularity of lifecycle including updates, and management.

The nuances become readily-apparent running anything real at scale, especially if you're only given a herring (Docker) to chop down the mightiness tree in the forest when you need a harvester (hypervisor). Docker, flatpak, and snap are unnecessary other than as shiny, fragile toys that attempt to (poorly) replicate the functionality of other tools. Live migration for containers is like adding high availability to a solar calculator: completely pointless and inappropriate engineering. Just don't get attached to these limited "advances" / fads / religions because popularity and newness aren't the same as demonstrable progress.

It's better to use something like Nix or habitat for multiversion app dependencies or just privately vendor them. There is no need for snap or flatpak if a containerizable OS can choose the correct dependency constraints for an app. The problem of concurrent package versions in existing package management systems can be solved with naming and numbering standards rather than reinventing everything.

We don't even know how old Giuffre was when the alleged sexual encounter occurred --assuming it did occur. She was born August 9, 1983, in the deposition she doesn't remember the time.
Tencent started as a rip-off of ICQ. Their application name was literally called OICQ. Then they became a rip off of Zynga. Tencent succeeds because it's safely protected by China, but it would never have gained enough marketshare without that monopoly. That's my entire point.

Huawei is a ripoff of Cisco. It's another company protected by the Chinese government.

And you forget Didi, which is a simple rip off of Uber. Uber was competing against Didi and would have won, except the Chinese government backed Didi and Uber decided it couldn't survive its source of money so they gave up. Didi even engaged in corporate spying, by sending their workers into Uber China to work there, sabotage it, and steal internal data. Didi couldn't win without cheating.

The fact you pull the race card is very sad. It means you're losing the argument.
Yep. I had a neighbor growing up that got all the coaching, was a great player and did well as a doubles player- but he had exactly one good run in a major tournament at singles- quarterfinals at Wimbledon.

He didn't have that next level of extreme athleticism- he could make every shot and was very proficient and earned a good living on tour, but if he hadn't come from good money he never would have been there in the first place, because he didn't have the native talent, never getting into the 60s in ATP rankings.

Doing great as a coach though.
My issue with Golang is that I find my ability to write code to just takes so much longer (and often with more lines) than other contemporary languages like Swift. The rigidity is a double-edged sword.. it removes potential issues that could cause you to trip on yourself, but at the cost of productivity.
I would say that's about right for me.

I Google things for information which I can glean from the search results more than looking for a website.

Rewiring the motor to 115v is probably a no-go, since it's a 3hp motor (continuous), which I believe is more amps at 120v than could be drawn from a normal circuit.

For safety, I'm wondering what kind of faults wouldn't be protected against. The starter has built-in thermal protection (heaters), which should protect the motor from the unlikely use case where I'm pushing the saw too hard, or more likely, a stall on start-up.

The breaker should still protect against shorts. I'm not knowledgeable enough to know what other faults could lead to an over current fault that one or the other of those wouldn't catch.

Would anybody care to educate me?

Also: the most dangerous aspect of a table saw is probably not the potential for electrical faults :-)
This seems like... a really big deal? I know that we're all sort of living in a world where "put ads on your high-traffic site" is a deeply outdated revenue model, but it's still quite a popular one, depending on what corner of the internet you're in.
Yes, it's usually a fair amount of work, on most modern ECUs there is some form of signature based protection which will require an exploit chain to bypass, and then the need to write either software patches to enable introspection into the parameters necessary to tune, or to reverse engineer the protections on the factory calibration protocols if they were left in production builds. This is all possible with the electronic equivalent of a screwdriver, a Raspberry Pi, but requires a lot of reverse-engineering effort and understanding.
Jira scales...poorly. It’s slow and it’s easy to misconfigure into a state that essentially requires a restart or creating a new project/team/similar.

You might also be the first person I’ve seen use “godlike” to describe any feature of Jira.

Basically you and I clearly have much different experiences with that tool.
We simply switch to string lights and "bedtime bulb" in the evenings, no dimming or internet needed.

(Although, I did install a dimmer into the dining room wall switch, but it's worth it I think if you'll be there at least a year.)
For something sci fi how about a kind of gradient?
And more research into deepfake generation and detection methods. I'm sure there will be an arms race of sorts for detection and methods to reduce signatures of deepfake in the generated images.
The Social Register
"The Social Register is a semi-annual publication in the United States that indexes the members of American high society. First published in the 1880s by newspaper columnist Louis Keller, it was later acquired by Malcolm Forbes. Since 2014, it has been owned by Christopher Wolf.

Historically a directory of wealthy and well-connected families from the northeast United States, it has, in recent years, diversified both in the geography and ethnicity of those it lists. At the same time, however, its importance as an arbiter of a family's social status has waned."

The spirit of your comment has truth to it, but it's unclear what exactly is so desirable about your friend's SUV in Africa. In your own words it's "tricked out", how do you know it's not just his modifications that have everyone making offers?

In choosing vehicles for such purposes, the criteria is more nuanced than "no computers". There are factors like fuel type, compression ratio (lower the better, runs fine on shit gas), non-interference design (in case timing belt fails, non-fatal), fewer moving parts in general (so you probably want to avoid an entire decade of non-computer, post-smog vehicles, which tend to have miles of vacuum lines and dozens of solenoids to leak and fail).

The 90s are kind of a sweet spot for computer-controlled post-smog simplicity, where vehicles likely still have throttle cables and no ABS. But you have to go much further back for no computers at all and no insane pre-computer emissions controls, basically pre-75.

I agree, but what I dont like is how to function a device needs Internet connectivity. Our smart vaccum cannot work with its app unless its connected to thr Internet. The nice thing is we can see its progress on mobile data, etc, but its a little ott for a 3rd party server to be involved. I'd prefer it to be local only.
I disagree, why exactly would it need to be re-written because it's in Java? Does the language matter at all? To me this piece of code is concise, I immediately recognized it as a bounds check. If you re-write this to add braces, newlines, the if statement... just creates more cognitive load in favor of? To me this little line is perfect, it does exactly what it is supposed to do and it doesn't hide its intent.
Some people are going to take the position that accepting money from bad people makes you a bad person, regardless of what you do (or claim to do) with the money.

NearlyFreeSpeech.net doesn't seem to aim to be the world's biggest low cost host, and their policy is pretty clear. I don't think they would lose a lot of customers if it became known that this part of their policy is in active use.
Kinda, its an app that trains people to tune guitars in different scenarios. The ads are mostly for pro versions of itself, its sibling apps and a far field mike array for adjusting tuning based on the room. The killer feature is artificial intelligence that learns how the person perceives sound and adjusts the tuning from "technically correct" to "perceptually correct." It is gamified with a blockchain verified leaderboard.

I think this is what happens when you get politicians trying to beat capitalism at its own game.

I really wish Europe would understand that you can’t beat capitalism on innovation and delivery.

EDIT: I think a lot of the replies missed the point I was trying to make.
I'm all for the free education, amazing healthcare, better regulation, etc that we have in Europe.
But no state will ever beat private companies on innovation and delivery.

This applies to similar problems in government as well. Some people care, some just kick the can to whoever is unfortunate enough to inherit the problem in 5-10 years. If you get a few of the latter people in political power, often the best thought out solutions are offered many times and denied because of internal political wrangling.
I may have a contrarian opinion: a new language, beyond certain level, does not increase productivity tangibly for a large enough team. Specifically, Scala does not necessarily offer more productivity than Java. It is a pleasure to write program in a language with more powerful features, for sure. It's just that bottlenecks of project are usually not language features, but core algorithms, system designs, meticulous testing, conflicting requirements that demand careful trade-offs, availability of robust libraries and frameworks, maintainability of the most complex part of the system, and availability of qualified engineers. Few of such bottlenecks can be removed by switching to a language like Scala.
I think that model is as relevant as ever. Google is just narrowing the list of “high-traffic” sites worth putting your ads on, to exclusively Google properties.
