>This is about common decency and basic human rights, not about entitlement. The fact that you are conflating the right to use restroom (a basic human need), at a consistent, non-excessive time interval (so that I do not experience a life-threatening state) to be some sort of entitlement is absolutely ridiculous.

I really want to be clear. I am not doing that. I am genuinely not saying you are one of those people, and I apologize for my words if that's how it sounded. Your case sounds pretty straight forward - just make sure there's a bathroom somewhere close.

My experience is that many individuals in the disability world (keep in mind I work with youth and young adults and their parents/advocates) are very entitled. They believe there are no boundaries on what is an acceptable, and reasonable accommodation. That is what I was getting at.

That statement legitimately had nothing to do with you. It was a statement. I get defensive about this because I genuinely get sued three or four times a year for access complaints that are completely unfounded. I am a huge advocate for disability rights, and believe the current system of basic access is inadequate. But I am also sick of being accused of discrimination because I don't treat every individual that I work with like a small doll made of crystal.
"I ... want to display them having the same size" is too vague to be useful.

Do you mean having the same x-height (the main body of the lowercase letters, assuming Latin script)? Or the same cap-height? Or the same ascender height? Or the same descender depth? Or the same character widths? Or a similar overall amount of "ink" in each character?

Yes, it's impossible without special-casing for each font, because there is no clear basis for making such an equivalence, given how designs differ.
None of this seems specific to a two-party system. You’re just caricaturing the democratic system in general, without offering constructive criticism or any alternative. You also haven’t addressed the point made by the comment you’re responding to.

I think partially it's that mainstream social media has become a hell-hole.

I've found HN to be much better for discussion in general (recognizing that this is not the case for everyone), and have participated in IRC rooms and whatnot where if I spent more time I could probably consider the people there friends, while still retaining individualism.

I tend towards grumpy isolationism however, so I may not be a good standard.

This is why Clojure developers love immutable data and pure functions so much. Say I am writing a web frontend for managing a list of users, and I want to implement some kind of filter and grouping flow on them for some business reason. Since I know the users are immutable, I know that when I am evaluating code in the browser to test out exactly what filter logic is correct I am not actually changing anything about the system.
Clubhouse, the Shift to Spoken Social Media, & the Voices That Will Be Silenced
"This paper argues that at least one of the following propositions is true: (1) the human species is very likely to go extinct before reaching a “posthuman” stage; (2) any posthuman civilization is extremely unlikely to run a significant number of simulations of their evolutionary history (or variations thereof); (3) we are almost certainly living in a computer simulation. It follows that the belief that there is a significant chance that we will one day become posthumans who run ancestor-simulations is false, unless we are currently living in a simulation. A number of other consequences of this result are also discussed."

That's an unfortunate heuristic. What is your basis for this?
For fast prototyping I’ve started using jlpcb.com and even moved from Eagle to their easyeda designer - having a library of components that are in stock, without having to find and verify the footprint makes it a thousand times easier, even if the design software is pretty basic.
Actually, I'm a bit out of the loop - is coreboot a strict superset of libreboot? Can you do a checkout of the coreboot code and do something like `./configure --no-blobs --target=thinkpadx60 && make` for systems that support it and get effectively the same thing that libreboot would have given you?
I can speak for the ID4, yes you can do this. Sure you will not get the 520km on paper and of course it depends how you driving it but you get around 400km with ok weather conditions, AC and seat/driving wheel heating. In Winter with negative temperatures I got high consumptions but I learned it might also have to do with the fact the batteries where not hot enough.

> Maybe putting your network control plane in 'the cloud' isn't such a good idea after all...

Isn't one of the major selling points of cloud-everything "How can you possibly secure your service better than BigRespectableCompany?" I know any time I bring up self-hosting E-mail or a web site or whatever, someone always comes out of the woodwork to remind me that I am not an expert in securing Internet services, and that BigRespectableCompanies have full-time employees dedicated to security. Surely I should be moving to the cloud for this expertise! This is sounding more and more like FUD to me.
The 30% cut was considered very good at the time. It was way better than the 50-90% cut that traditional publishers would take.

A sibling comment notes that Steam charged 30% at the time (though some had better deals) but it's worth noting that Steam was not an open platform that anyone could publish on. Much like for consoles, to put a game on Steam you had to have a preexisting relationship with Valve, or try to develop one with no certainty of success. This was also considered a very generous cut because getting on Steam was almost a guarantee of financial success.
Sending people to prison to do nothing is kinda self-defeating if it’s your people. And in this context fine is arguably worse than being whipped.
I wonder how difficult it would be to implement a rudimentary controller for their APs. The WLAN configurations are just text files in the /etc directory. Getting feature parity would be a lot of work, but I bet the bar isn't too high for simple functionality. Most of the "magic" is happening in hostapd on the APs anyway.
Yeah that's exactly asking a stranger to tell you your address

Much, much more than traffic, though that is useful. The anonymized probe data is used to refine business driveways inferred from satellite imagery, for example. That’s why suddenly Maps can often route you to the correct parking lot instead of a nearby curb. Think about it: if you know a phone is navigating to Safeway, where the user stops navigation is potentially interesting in aggregate and divulges almost nothing except the average parking preference of an iOS user.

Source: Worked on that. One example of hundreds.
And just to be complete, there is little preventing other people from creating their own Steam (many do) or not using Steam at all (developers can publish their apps directly to users). This is not the case with the App store.

Raspberry Pis are on much older Arm architectures/manufacturing processes, with nowhere near the performance of a smartphone, and with very reduced energy efficiency.

Raspberry Pi 3 was a Cortex-A53 back ported to 40nm outright.

Raspberry Pi 4 is on 28nm. (for comparison, Apple A8 and Snapdragon 810 were on 20nm already, in 2014-15)

It runs with a Cortex-A72 at a low clock (1.5GHz, phones even are at twice that clock nowadays) and quite high power consumption because of the process node.

The memory interface is narrow (32-bit bus, phones ship with a 64-bit bus and laptops/desktops with a 128b one) at a low data rate (LPDDR4-3200).

In addition to that, the CPU can only use 5GB/sec of it, with the remainder being reserved for the GPU only.

Those were some of the sacrifices needed to reach this price point. (and why it isn't representative at all of the performance of higher-end ARMs)
That is true with Medallion. They run hundreds of different strategies and put money in the ones that are working well.
You may be smart, and have secured your systems properly, but someone with the same resume as you in another company might not be.

That might be an Nvidia GPU - with DLSS - but who would manufacture the CPU?

Or, could we see Nvidia (since it has acquired ARM) jumping into the console space?

A suite of three consoles ranging from mobile/portable, to 1080p/TV, to 4K/Desktop quality could be very appealing, especially if the top-end model could also use a mouse and keyboard and dual-boot into ARM Windows.

Nvidia would just need to design a Linux game OS and storefront. If they offered a 10% developer commission and paid for some big exclusives, they could have a very compelling product.
You'd have lost that bet already. One of them switched to Aruba last week. I've already replaced several pieces of ubnt gear as well and posted for sale on ebay. The APs I'm holding off until there are some solid WiFi 6E options.

I know of at least two others that currently have hardware on order to replace existing ubnt routers with OPNsense so you can add them to the list by the end of April.

The early days at Ubiquiti were good. I worked with a lot of good engineers and we shipped good work. The decline is a recent problem.

> How the brand hasn't become toxic already is a mystery to me, yet look at the stock price tracker. It's been trending up for years and it has well over doubled in the past six months alone.

This is your answer. No incentive to change. All of the bad engineering decisions have been rewarded by increasing stock price and continued sales.

Most of the original engineers have quit by now. I lost track of how many UniFi engineering leads joined and then quit after it started falling apart. Before I quit, I heard rumors that the CEO was making two separate teams work on the Dream Machine project separately, competing against each other. That made more people quit. I think they were trying to reboot engineering in foreign countries when I left because it felt like we were forgotten in the US offices.
Kinda strange that they'd ask for a ransom in Bitcoin and not something fully anonymous..

NAT-PMP, UPnP-IGD or PCP can be used for that. Home routers usually support at least one of those, but you may have to explicitly enable it.
Mikrotik have products that are exactly like that.

I thought Apple chose that figure as game developers were already used to it from consoles and Steam.

The problem is that the “lack of tools” is just too big to overcome. If all your sound comes off a pair of speakers, there is no realistic chance to reproduce the depth and complexity of a real room, where you can perceive immediately which sounds to prioritise. You’d need a full surround system, then you’d need a webconf instrument that can interact with it properly, then you’d need the equivalent for vision - a single screen is just too small and depth perception is nil. And you can’t really get there incrementally - it will continue to suck hard until you have every element sorted out. And of course there will always be “i can’t hear you now, can you hear me? Oh, she’s disconnec— ‘I’m here everybody, sorry Jerry, what were you saying?’ - I was saying that — ‘I can’t hear you Jerry!’ “ etc etc

Not a strict superset, it's more accurate to say libreboot is a restricted and modified (old) subset of coreboot. I don't think coreboot has catered to blob free enthusiasts the same way libreboot has, and I believe the build system is different, so the answer is probably no (?)
As I said, it will get super-ugly, and it has not been done (in any language with more than 1 user), I think. Why? Because you will want an error class for a whole tree of classes you define, and it is not so trivially clear how that should look like. A simple 'bottom' (i.e., 'null') works. But e.g. you have 'Expr' for your expressions and you want 'ExprError' to be your error class for that that subclasses all 'Expr' and is a superclass of bottom. Now when you define 'ExprPlus' and 'ExprMinus' and 'ExprInt' and so on, all subclasses of 'Expr', you still want 'ExprError' to be a subclass of those to indicate an error. That is the difficult part: how to express exactly what you want? How does the inheritance graph look like? At that point, languages introduced exceptions. And after that: generic error classes: 'Optional<Expr>' and 'Error<Expr>', etc., without a global 'bottom'. This forces you to think about an error case: you cannot just return ExprError from anything that returns Expr, but you need to tell the compiler that you will return 'Optional<Expr>' so the caller is forced to handle this somehow.

>The question will be whether the Series S/X version will run well enough to be worth buying.

I also wonder whether the Xbox version will support all the HOTAS, yokes, pedals, and throttles that the PC version does. Some Thrustmaster sticks aren't compatible with consoles, for example.
YMMV, but as much as I like Apple Maps and use it as much as I can, for the more complex/unknown routes I definitely rely more on Google Maps to get it right. I don't know if telemetry is the cause for the better service, but it is noticeably better for me.

Separately, I'm also a google customer as I run an Ad campaign for a small business (skilled labor), and the dollars spent on search ads are extremely efficient with an incredible ROI. Even with CACs in the 10s of dollars, with the size of the contracts being signed it typically costs much less than .5% of the total.

Breaking accessibility for looks is the cardinal sin of web development. The two are not exclusive and often it's actually less work to make things accessible — simply don't break the built in functionality. It's a widespread issue and mostly I'd put the onus on bad education: to this day, many big libraries have very poor accessibility both in their code examples and their components. The true measure of a website's user interface is not whether it's pretty, it's whether it's usable, by everyone.

Well, I was thinking of saving the booking slots presented to the customers for data purposes. Also, I was thinking that it might help to store the presented slots in case someone else books it before the person decides to reserve. This way eliminating the option in realtime might be easier and without having to recalculate all the remaining available slots again? But maybe there is a better solution to this....

For what it's worth, it's more ceremony, but you can work fine with partially constructed data types without null, it's just that the nature of their construction either needs to encoded int the types directly, or they need to be initially constructed with defaults and you need to decide if you want them to explode/panic if they're not completed, or just return potentially unexpected defaults.

Last I heard, skim's fuzzy search was not "as good as" fzf (I don't know in what measure?)...

There's a rumor on the grapevine that RPi doesn't pay the license fees for their cores. There's probably more to it than that (maybe they do for compute modules which are explicitly not for the .edu market?), but the word on street is that that baseline licensing cost is $0 for them from ARM.

I ultimately think you're right, and we won't see a V9 in an RPi for a while, but it's a more complex situation than most SoC integrators that has a slight chance of working out in RPi's favor. Does ARM care enough to make a tiny core in their gate count niche? Does ARM want to give the free new cores to increase market share and get V9 features in the hands of tinkerers? etc.
The idea that "workers can't band together to make demands" somehow is in opposition to "market forces" and not ITSELF a market force is how we got into this mess in the first place.

The article describes racist and hateful comments, but the only examples it gives are someone complaining about her statistics and someone accusing the organization supplying her statistics of being backed by China. Neither of those seem racist to me. The comments may be right or wrong, though the article doesn't even try to figure out which, I don't see how they're racist.

In another post comments are claiming that pro-Amazon messages are astroturfed from Amazon. Are these people racists against Bezos or Amazon leadership? Are Asians incapable of posting poor statistics?
The headline is pretty misleading and emotionally worded. The actual article doesn't really talk about "redemption" of the world.

This is true for graphics/video codecs where you want to move around pixels in blocks smaller than 128-bit. The MMX instructions nobody likes in x86 are actually still pretty useful here.
