> Ah, due to (who would've thunk) the SQLite connection.

The “SQLite connection” is manifold - indeed drh (SQLite author) used to be on the Tcl Core Team, and is an unapologetic user of Tcl. SQLite itself isn’t just “well-supported” in Tcl, it started there. drh calls SQLite “a tcl extension that escaped into the wild”, among other things, and that “...SQLite is still heavily dependent upon TCL and the ongoing support, maintenance, and enhancement of SQLite would not be possible without TCL, and would be seriously inconvenienced without Tk.” [0][1]

The ties are interesting and deep.

The way he triggers the photo is rather clever:

Instead of actually recognizing any feature in the image, the script just determines how much of the image is in focus. ... the script calculates this measure for “focus” for each frame of the preview video and takes a gliding average of this value for over a minute. The value changes and drifts slightly as lighting changes over the day and this average will keep track of the current “base” focus of the empty scene. But when a squirrel enters the frame and occupies the area that is otherwise out of focus, this “focus measure” suddenly increases significantly.

Like most good ideas, it seems obvious in hindsight.

> This is malware, and the services which distribute it are malware distributors.

Malware has been distributed through open-source repositories multiple times before, so by your convoluted definition of "malware distributors", open-source repositories are those, too.

> Only a shmuck or an abuser thinks that it's okay to exploit user's ignorance of the alternatives

As stated elsewhere in this thread[1], not all users use these commercial stores out of ignorance of alternatives. In addition to being a logically poor argument, it's empirically false. Moreover, the word "exploit" is divorced from reality and not applicable to the situation - giving users the choice to have commercial app stores available is clearly not exploitation from any sane viewpoint. I'm calling you out - you're using logical fallacies and emotionally-laden weasel words to try to sneak a bad argument in.

> to monetize their every waking breath and steal as much information about them as possible through deceit and propaganda.

Snuck premise: "commercial app stores all monetize and surveil their users to the maximum extent possible". There's absolutely nothing intrinsic to a commercial app store that causes any of that to happen. But go ahead, prove me wrong - show me that every commercial app store has to do this. I suggest starting with Steam, and showing me the massive amount of data-collection that you clearly think they do on their users.

> Prohibiting the exploitation of the public is not authoritarian, even if it means you don't make as much money.

Same snuck premise - show me exactly how the nature of a proprietary app store makes "exploitation" necessary - after defining "exploitation". And independent of that, your argument is still false. Trying to claim that you're "prohibiting the exploitation of the public" attempts to cover over the fact that your proposed "solution" is authoritarian (the motive has absolutely nothing to do with that categorization).

Red Hat statement about RMS’s return to the Free Software Foundation board
Most vendors (Debian/Ubuntu, RHEL/clones, etc.) add a hook into rsyslog to be a partner with the systemd logger and write out text files next to the journal - they realize that a lot of people dislike dealing with journalctl (I'm one of them) and provide an alternate hook already installed and working for you behind the scenes.

This is for daemons using syslog methodology, not direct writers like apache/nginx/mysql/etc; think more like cron, systemd, chrony, NetworkManager, and so forth. The vendors are not all aligned on what goes where (example: on RHEL, pacemaker/crm write to their own logs buy on openSUSE they're sent to syslog) - the actual results differ slightly from vendor to vendor.

DIY distros like Arch do not implement the rsyslog backend by default, you have to set it up yourself following the wiki - only journalctl is there by default.

I'm with you on trying to have minimal notifications. I have one personal email configured only for important mails, phone is set to vibration only since years (TBH I don't even remember what my ringtone sounds like) and my phone is always face down, which means DND mode.

Having a quick way to get breathing room can significantly reduce the stress & cognitive load of worrying about such things in your off-time.

This goes into the same vein I was going to point out.

Most uncontrolled space usage comes from logs, users doing user things, or something like build servers just eating temporary and caching storage for lunch. Databases also tend to have uncontrolled space usage, but that tends to be wanted.

So, if you push /var/log to it's own 20-30Gb partition, a mad logger cannot fill up /. It can kill logging, but no logging is better than fighting with a full /. Similar things with /home - let users fill up their home dirs and pout and scream about it... but / is still fine. And you can use their input to provide more storage, if they have useful workflows.

Something like databases - where their primary use case is to grow - need monitoring though to add storage as necessary.

Given that accepting non-Latin characters would likely require an overhaul of the business registration office's IT systems, they could also add a field where the registrant could additionally input the name using IPA[0] or even just a romanized/anglicized version. Someone who isn't familiar with the native alphabet or language could refer to that.

East/Southeast Asian and Slavic names are routinely mispronounced, even when transliterated to the Latin alphabet. This isn't even a problem unique to non-Latin alphabets. I butcher the pronunciation of some French names, for example, and with many Scandinavian words I don't even know where to start.

I think you're still missing the intent, so I'll go through it in small pieces.

- Service starts up, makes itself a CA cert signed by itself.

- IoT device starts up.

- IoT device says to service, "please may I have a HTTPS certificate?"

- Service makes a HTTPS certificate, and signs it using the CA that it made, above.

- Service replies "yes you may have a HTTPS certificate and here it is"

Later, in the browser:

- user visits https://iotdevice.lan/ which is the public page for the IoT device

- browser says, "oh hey, this is on a LAN IP"

- browser says to service, "please may I have a copy of your CA cert?"

- Service says "sure here is a copy of my CA cert"

- Browser installs it as a trust root for the LAN only

- Browser sets up a HTTPS connection to https://iotdevice.lan/

- The connection is successful because it presented a HTTPS certificate signed by one of the browser's trust roots

The primary reason for me is that Postgres has stronger default constraints. If you care about keeping your data logically consistent then Postgres has more of that out of the box.

SQLite just makes the tradeoff to be simpler since often it doesn't matter. But don't make the mistake that it doesn't matter. Since PG helps avoid data problems and you might need to scale out web servers that is why Django for instance recommends switching to Postgres (or whatever you're actually going to use) ASAP cause there are differences. You may end up relying on PG to reject things SQLite doesn't care about by default. SQLite might let you get away with inserting data which PG refuses to handle.

Not to mention the DB specific features can differ. Like PG's JSON field types or etc.
Well if you read what I wrote, I didn't say that they fund 60%/87% of federal revenue. I said they pay 60%/87% of income taxes.

Since payroll is proportional to income, that's even more federal revenue that is indirectly levied on the labor of the top 5% and 20%.

Once you include capital gains taxes, the top 5% and top 20% cover even more of federal revenue. The only portion of capital gains that isn't personal capital gains is corporate capital gains. A sizable amount of non-individual capital gains are hedge funds and retirement accounts, which once again are mostly funded by many people in the top 5% and 20%.

Any way you slice it, it's largely the top 5% to top 20% of so funding much of the operating costs of USA Inc. Everyone in the bottom 50% gets a 50% say while paying a mere 3% of income taxes and probably even less in taxes once you include all sources of federal revenue.

Just using unicode would be a disaster. It still has to be constrained and the law should and does define what characters are allowed. If company names can have emojis or multi-layer stacked diacritics or text direction changing between left-to-right and right-to-left in the middle of the name, or an invisible word joiner character, nobody will be able to make sense of them. Names are for humans, so they have to be in human language.

Haha, I feel so called out. I have been up for 2 days straight at this point, and it has been incredibly productive.

Sometimes I wish I could summon my ability to do deep work during the day, but it is just so hard with all the meetings and ideations (I love them too, but can't stay up 24x7). My body can't take this kind of late-night abuse anymore, so I feel like I am running on borrowed time.

Hopefully I will learn to do focus work in the day at some point. Has anyone here successfully made that transition ?

Statement regarding Richard Stallman's readmission to the FSF board
Yes, I don't doubt at all that it's possible to make CLOS dispatch fast. What I'm saying is that because historically people using CLOS had to pay a (often negligible) runtime cost for dispatch, it limited the number of places developers were willing to allow generic dispatch.

Julia makes the runtime cost of (type stable) dispatch zero, and hence does not even give julia programmers an *option* to write non-generic functions (though it can be hacked in like with FunctionWrappers.jl). I'm not familiar with Strandh's work, but has it made the overhead of generic functions low, or has it completely eliminated it?

Another thing I'll mention is that Julia's type system is parametric, and we allow values (not just types) in our type parameters which is immensely useful for writing generic high performance code. You can specialize methods on matrices of complex integers separately from rank 5 arrays of rational Int8s for instance. This is not a capability that CLOS or Dylan has as far as I'm aware, though the common refrain is that you can do it with macros, but that neglects that it's rather hard to get right, and will have limited use because such macro implementations of type parameters won't be ubiquitious.

________________________________

To be clear though, I'm not hating on Common Lisp or CLOS. The Common Lisp ecosystem is awesome and can do all sorts of really cool things that I wish we had in julia. I'm mostly just pushing back on the notion that Julia doesn't do anything new or interesting.

The in-game EPM ended up about 180 with spikes smaller than humans' spikes. It also had camera constraints on where it could click unlike the bot that Liquid-TLO faced. Serral has a 300+ EPM for comparison. The bot's EPM is quite a bit worse than top humans, so I'm going to conclude that its mechanics are worse too.

Also I don't agree that it was low masters for strats or tactics. You can't beat GMs with worse/same mechanics unless you have good strats. Besides, low masters players are pretty bad and the replays show that this bot had super tight and highly optimized builds, it was a big fan and good at early to midgame cheeses.

The main valid criticism that I remember is that it wasn't the best at long games when the utility of its sharp build wore off and it needed to think on its feet, but I don't recall the details.
People expect much more features with modern software as before, and accept worse reliability because of the faster bug fix cycle.

> "You just about wiped us out, the least you can do is let us use our language."

To be clear, no one is preventing them from using the language, only registering a business in a particular character set. Also, respectfully, (and I'm sure I'll be downvoted into the ground for asking, but) I don't understand the ethical calculus that faults living groups of people for things some other group of people (albeit with the same label) did centuries ago. The only way I can make it make sense is if we pretend that human beings are fungible tokens within their identity groups. I'm only digressing because this sort of rationale seems to keep coming up these days and I don't understand it.

Overscan (using the borders) was at the mercy of the monitor, so games often used 304 pixels to work everywhere, not even 320. That's 19 sprites per layer. Any decent game would use at least two layers (38 sprites total in the general case, assuming no gaps or optimization schemes) or three (57 sprites). But then you'd probably need another column of sprites, partially clipped, for horizontal scrolling.

Sounds like fun.
