Linux itself is written in C, though everything runs on it. Who cares about the language that Kubernetes is written in (by the way, it used to be Java but it was changed politically to Go)? If you are writing Java/Scala you can use GraalVM to achieve the same thing that Go does. If your service is mainly doing data processing, then Go won't help you there because its abstractions are too low-level or even non-existent. A Java service/app won't require a JVM if you you create a self-contained application package. Applications can be deployed on fresh systems with no requirement for the JRE to be installed. The advantage is that you control the version of the JRE used by the application and the disadvantage is that application updates are the responsibility of developer and self-contained applications do not have built-in support for automatic updates. Exactly why for services I wouldn't recommend it, and neither Go or Rust. I would never trade the state-of-the-art garbage collectors that the JVM provides me with the ones of Go or the borrow checker of Rust (though I would take Rust anytime over Go). I can't help myself but only think that you comment is straight from the 90s when it comes to the JVM ecosystem.
No one is strong arming me. I received all vaccines that were available in my youth and my child received all as well. I am booked for vaccination next week here in the UK and I don't care which one I get. It'll probably be AZ. There are concerns of course but this is the same with any other medication/vaccine taken. You never know how your body will respond.

Vaccine 'passports' are nothing new. We kind of all have them already. If you travel to some parts of Africa you already need a proof of vaccination (yellow fever). How is Covid-19 any different? It's here now, there's little we can do apart from all of us getting vaccinated and slowly getting back to normal lives. I just wish the whole world would get vaccinated at the same time.
The UK did have a cabled system at the time - this is about moving from cables to wireless, for better bandwidth and lower infrastructure costs. (Obviously it didn't work out.)
They are, but that's not the reason. The goal is to fight poverty for the kids who do exist.

Adding $300 per month would still not make having children profitable. But for those who chose to have children, it would reduce the losses, making it more likely that those children would be able to grow up in a more beneficial environment.

Frankly, if it couldn't, that would be a serious problem.

Speaking for myself, I've got a lot of opinions, many - admittedly not all - of which overlap with the ones outlined in the GNU manifesto. One that may differ is that I'm simply unable to trust a cult of personality. GNU is already dangerously close to that, and I've sometimes wondered if there's cause for splintering off a group that is more firmly centered on Free Software instead of on Richard Stallman.

> Because they heap regulation on the West while sending money to China and India who have no obligation to improve their environmental policy.

Both China and India are signatories of the Paris Accords. They are aiming to meet their targets. The US, at least for the four previous years, wasn't even in the Accords and not trying to do much in that time.

There are no regulations in the Accords, just a goal with regards to carbon emissions. If you want minimal regulations to achieve that, either introduce a cap-and-trade system (like Bush 41 did for acid rain), or introduce price signalling via carbon pricing, as recommended from four former Federal Reserve chairs (including Greenspan):

* https://www.carbonpricingleadership.org/news/2019/1/17/forme...

> Nobody can explain to me why this is wrong and that Paris Accords are actually terrible for the global environment, but its still awful the US wouldn't sign them because "we have to do something!"

Perhaps no one can explain why it's wrong because it is not wrong? The Paris Accords are not about "the global environment", they are specifically about one thing: carbon emission. Specifically reducing them by a certain amount.

Why do you think reducing them is bad?
The science behind SageMaker’s cost-saving Debugger
“I found a flaw in a LEED certified building, I ignored any other possible beneficial knock on effects of that flaw or other enhancements. Therefore LEED has no beneficial effect, either here or anywhere else.”
Can concur here in Western Europe. For more than a decade we've had a regulation where you have to run your plans for a new building through a tool that calculates a score reflecting the projected energy consumption in a broad sense. The maximum allowed score has been adjusted down every few years.

The effect is indeed that all new buildings (and renovations that involve some kind of constructing new volumes) have improved massively in energy consumption. Still, we have such a massive amount of old buildings with next to none insulation that get renovated so slowly that it will take a long time to actually make a decent dent in reducing our climate footprint.

But there's definitely a good focus on improving our buildings. Main issue with these new buildings is no longer having decent insulation to keep heating costs down but making sure they don't overheat when there's good weather, and ventilating them properly. This is also part of the score calculation but in my experience not sufficiently highlighted.
It isn't unique to Communism however this sort of thing always appears in Communist societies, without fail, as with all radical utopian ideologies.

That is just another form of the tolerance paradox. And the conclusion of that would say, yes, only welcome people that are socially open minded people.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paradox_of_tolerance
I agree that technology shouldn't be used to solve social problems, but in some ways, the problem Gemini aims to solve is technical -- software and network protocols permit surveillance. We should be moving towards systems that have privacy-by-design rather than privacy-by-policy or privacy-by-convention.

I don't see how a social solution would work -- do we just make analytics, telemetry, etc... illegal? And then watch as people break the law or do what they did with GDPR: implement just enough to follow the letter of the law, but completely ignore the spirit of the law?

The sole case I can think of is GitHub removing cookies when you're not logged in so they never have to show a cookie banner. One exception among thousands of cookie banners and GDPR violations.

There is no social solution to surveillance.

When a terminal window has focus, you can go into Normal mode with `Ctrl+W N`, which will let you search and yank stuff like you're used to.

Due to market seasonality you shouldn't compare the quarter with the previous one. It would be more accurate to compare Q121 with Q120. In that comparison they increased almost 80%
That stops applying when the meaning of "socially open minded" is broadened so much that opposing children being irreversibly sterilised without their parents' consent is considered closed-minded.
I viewed it more as a managerial committee akin to a board of directors.
It isn’t that finances aren’t tracked. They are tracked and audited and the audits are audited and there are many safeguards in place so that money doesn’t leak out and the knowledge for that operation is specialized, so much so that entire departments handle only part of the process and can’t just talk to one another due to the “segregation of duties” the auditors want. A company that decided to incentivize bug bounty like Google got support for the program on high and all the wheels of the org went to work to create policy, procedure, forms, auditor review, SARBOX compliance, etc and payouts will move like any other invoice. A company where some mid rank sees a need for such a program but doesn’t get full organizational alignment will be stuck with a pre-broken unreliable process.
TIL `:term`. I've been using vim/tmux (and before that, vim/screen) for nearly 30 years. I never knew about `:term` before that, thanks for posting.

Realized it might be worth providing a concrete example. So here that is --

The GNU Manifesto has a whole section, "Why GNU will be compatible with Unix", that briefly explains why RMS chose Unix. In it, he fairly explicitly states that Unix is not his ideal software system, but it's a good choice for advancing GNU's political goals. In other words, the politics are considered at least as important as, and perhaps more important than, developing quality software.
Anyone who has been to sea in a small boat would not consider most of these "mysterious".

Take Hubert Marcoux as an example. He set out to cross from Nova Scotia to Bermuda in November and was never heard from again. There was very bad weather during his crossing, as expected in November. The mystery, if any, rests in why he would set out to cross one of the nastiest pieces of water in the world in the very worst season.

In order for a disappearance at sea to be considered "mysterious" it has to be something that is not easily explained by things like bad weather, alcohol, and hypothermia.

If, for example, a crew of naval cadets on a J/Boat were raptured out of Annapolis harbour without a trace on a sunny summer afternoon, that would be a mysterious disappearance at sea. The rest of these--not so much.

Wow. Institutionalised racism makes a return to the USA.
This is preposterous. Removing a serially abusive person from a position of power is in no way soviet style authoritarianism, and has absolutely nothing to do with communism or capitalism.

This is a private organization removing someone for poor behavior according to their own bylaws. It is not somehow a symbol for the fall of liberal capitalism in the US. Please. People are removed from boards and committees for poor behavior all the time. The sky does not fall.
I love the concept and execution but it really is so sad that the results weren’t more compelling.

I do wonder whether the problem is that training on multiple fonts just doesn’t actually add more data points to the dataset. Fundamentally, you’re going to get a model that knows how to uppercase or lowercase each canonical Latin letter. This model might actually be quite good at generating appropriate lowercase forms for a font given the uppercase glyphs, but it’s not learning an abstract concept of ‘lowercaseness’.

Instead of extending the training set with more fonts, the only real source of additional training data would be more alphabets. Cyrillic and Greek both have case systems so just adding those would have more than doubled the number of training cases - I think the trick would be to start from the Unicode case mapping tables to generate your example data, to give your model more variety of upper/lowercase pairs to get its teeth into and really make it possible to ask it to uppercase an arbitrary letter form.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcohol_burner
Would that still be true once we're not socially distancing from one another?

You'll have lots of options for in-person socialization during working hours. Just go to a coffee shop, or out to lunch, or take a break for a yoga class.

It's not the same as developing bonds with the same people day after day around the shared experience of work, but it's not necessarily worse, just different. And you'll have more time for socialization once freed from your commute. Join a club, take a class, hang with friends -- more intense bonding experiences than the shallow ones of work cohorts.

So if people are lonely, maybe it's pandemic rather than the remote work.

The list is every growing because the list is defined by intersections of oppression as laid out by the concept of intersectionality as defined in the academic field of Critical Theory

That's why the Biden Administration recently added "gender identity" to the definition of sex as it pertains to segregated spaces reserved for women ie battered womens' shelters and sports leagues, to allow biological males to enter and act as women as long as they choose to present as, or "identify as" in the Theory jargon everyone is familiar with, women.

Gender identity is the latest axis of oppression added to the intersectionalist hierarchy of oppression

When it's played out, the activist-industrial complex will need something new, like body acceptance, to move on to in order to keep the donations flowing

These organizations are why suddenly you can't start a new repo without making a political decision anymore, because they're the ones driving fabricated "controversies" over things like master branches

It's a rabbit hole. Look up Critical Theory if you don't know what it is. It might be the most popular religion in America today, and it's definitely the most popular religion that pretends to be common sense, science, or obvious decency. But it's a religion, frankly, with all the caveats that entails. It's based on faith and there's a whole belief system and way of being that one is supposed to adopt along with the Critical worldview

"Do better"

Avoid "problematic" things

Fight "whiteness"

Apologize for your "privilege" (original sin)

Repeat the mantra "black lives matter," and put it on your documentation pages

If you do something wrong, struggle session followed by shunning (cancel culture), which is a common punishment in religious communities

It has high priests like Ibrahim Kendi

Certain building materials need to breath. Buildings built with green wood which has more moisture than ambient, and buildings with cast concrete will shed water vapor for some time. If this can be managed, it is fine.

Additionally, through all insulation there is an internal temperature gradient. If the there are discontinuities it is possible to get condensation when the temperature / dew point align just wrong. This can happen in in humid climates with inadequate insulation - especially fiberglass where moisture can easily penetrate the fiberglass to reach the colder outside walls.

I agree, though. Air tightness and continuous insulation coupled with well-engineered ventilation is best.

You may already know, but in case not, you can also use this tmux feature from your editor. For example in vim

:w !tmux load-buffer -

Writes whatever you have selected in vim into the tmux buffer through standard in.

Elsewhere you can paste like pbpaste.

:r !tmux save-buffer -

The save-buffer command is’t the most intuitive name, but it’s saving to a file, stdout in this case.
