There's plenty of old-school single DIN devices that have bluetooth in them. You'll usually find they have a radio and other junk (e.g. mp3 over usb) but most are fairly simple and it shouldn't be hard to find one that stays in bluetooth mode all the time.
That only happened after a decade of everyone being told Perl 6 was the next version, and people gave up and stopped paying attention. Since no one is paying attention anymore, recent changes to the plans or names have simply not been noticed by most people, so you need a full-on marketing campaign to get most people to become even aware of Raku. Announcing Perl 7 seems like it would be a good way to do that.
Yes, that makes sense
Digital art can be recreated easily, which is probably one reason why few people have been paying money for it.

Physical art, which people have historically paid for, is much more difficult to credibly reproduce than NFTs.

Edited to add:

Moreover if the argument in favor of NFTs is that they're not worse than what preceded them, then what's the point of introducing them? If the same problems in the traditional art market (especially for digital works) are recapitulated with NFTs, I don't see the point.

The old object-observer duality. Where is the value in this case? It is in the observer, not in the object. It goes in a different layer.

The problem there is that culture, social conventions, shared fictions and so on can be manipulated/twisted/adapted to some agenda or interest, and that includes what we feel valuable or not, without minding of what is really behind (like with bitcoins and similar). Once we took this route, all kinds of mirages can appear. And they can vanish into thin air as fast as they appeared.

It's still a horror show, and it's getting worse and worse. This person was the perl5 lead, without particular technical nor management abilities. But getting harassed by saying "removing cruft", from the people being reponsible for the cruft is why everybody with the abilities to manage this cruft already left, and only the people who cannot see the cruft remain.
however: why those instead of iterators or functions? how is a `lens` not a function in general (or a yielding iterator) which return some kind of views?

Maybe I'm cynical, but if MS is adding ads to the OS that you paid for, then how much worse would it be if they didn't have these other platforms raising money to offset as well. I'm imagining your OS with a desktop that looks like a NASCAR car and driver's suit.

If you're using console.log to do debugging then it's worthwhile giving yourself a little more data to point at where a problem might lie - timings.

Open up devtools (cmd+option+j), then open the command palette (cmd+shift+P), and then search for "console", and then select "Console - Show Timestamps". Now every console output will have the high definition timestamp prepended to it. That can be really helpful if you don't want to go down the whole perf chart rabbit hole, or if you think things might be running in the wrong order due to some async weirdness.

(This probably only works in Chrome)

I would refuse as well, and I do refuse to install work related apps on my personal phone. If my employer requirements are to use specific apps then they can provide the device I'll use during work hours or provide compensation to pay for device to use.

I don't see a problem with their employer requiring a way to contact and track their custodians. What's ridiculous is that they want to require the person to place that on their personal device. If the employer provided the device I would see no issue it's simply another way of managing employees. It's another discussion to determine if this is an appropriate management technique or not but tracking your employees during a work time is a valid thing. With a work provided device they could turn it on when they start their shift they could turn it off when they stop their shift.

Hopefully something can be done to be punitive to these employers that are requiring this on people's personal equipment.

Where does one find good information?

[Omitting rant on how to find truth on the internet these days, and how sad it is that has been a huge breakdown in trust in our leaders.]

Similarly, is there a good place to, say, find Covid data science? I for one would like to know where the disease is actually being transmitted. It would be nice to be able to determine which interventions a state should reasonably make to fight the virus, and which look good but do nothing.
what limitation are you running into? did something change recently?
You are missing the point. That Israel have nukes are holding others back, not Israel. I haven't said anything about Israel going to war.

Many countries will think "If our biggest enemy has nukes we better get them ourself" which is one of the reasons that Iran wants nukes: To hold off Israel.

It's pretty clear that you have feelings invested in this and are picking sides which is understandable with the history of Iran and Israel but it doesn't change the facts that having nukes is most often a stabilizing event in a region (while the process up until they acquire them likely isn't) and if Iran trying to get nukes is a destabilizing event then the cause of this instability is not only that Iran wants nukes but also that others already have them and they now want them too which causes extreme tension especially in the country that already have them. This is the pattern we normally see.

>This is all before discussing how Iran and Saudi Arabia are carrying on a proxy power struggle between Russia and the United States.

Yes and again we know from history how this will likely play out. We actually have a very good example of what happens in a very unstable proxy situation when one side decides to add nuclear weapons into the mix: Korea. The armistice clearly stated No Nukes and since one side added nuclear weapons (the US broke the armistice by importing nuclear weapons into South Korea) we have seen the pariah (NK) doing exactly what Iran is doing: doing everything it can to get weapons that can stop the perceived enemy from being able to destroy them and yelling about destruction of the big enemy (which is mainly targeted at their own population).

So if history teaches us anything it is IMO that Iran will either get nuclear weapons and it will cause stability OR it will not and instability will never stop growing until full on war breaks out at which point Iran as we know it will either be destroyed or the cycle will reset.
The first are theocracies, but both Iran and Pakistan are officially multiethnic states. Not that theocracies are much better than ethnostate.

As for the other, those are orthogonal to the issues.

You are literally just doing whataboutism, but even worse because you're not whatabouting at the right people.
I will stop issuing any and all of my source code in all projects under all FSF licenses. An apology about comments about normalizing rape is just not enough of acceptable action at all.
Now, would the journalists who wrote articles with titles that are a variation of "RMS defended Epstein" [1,2] apologize or at least correct their articles? Also, now that RMS has explicitly clarified his position on these issues, can the people who leveraged his "silence" and "bad behavior" to oust him from the FSF at least admit that their motive was less about making the free-software movement welcoming and was more about getting rid of RMS?

For me as an occasional hobby developer for old platforms it's interesting. Subtle differences in how emulators work compared to the original hardware has sometimes resulted in nasty surprises.

In the best world, I could use an emulator as a reference, but for now I have to keep the old hardware around for that reason and always make sure to test my code on it regularly. Even differences that have no impact on the entire software library are important in that sense.

For example, if I write an address to an OPL chip I normally have to wait a few cycles for the address change to be effected before I write a value. You can remove that limitation in an emulator and all software written for the original platform will still work, but the emulator will no longer be useful as a reference, because now I can write software that works in the emulator but not on the real system.

There's of course a use case for emulators that take these kinds of shortcuts for the purpose of running an existing software library, and that's how people were able to play SNES games on Pentium class hardware, but as a point of reference and complete functional preservation of the hardware platform itself, that isn't good enough.
I suppose we'll see contracts include the artist not "de-valuing" their "own" works in such future where they are super-stars able to shape a story to direct their fans on what to believe.
"Проябать" in Russian means something like "to loose through laziness/carelessness/neglect", not "to loose through incorrectly performed action" where neglect is used in a rather broad sense also covering the case of "stealing a part under an assumption that it does not matter for the functionality".

So a more closer-in-meaning translation is "Yura, we lost everything through our laziness and neglect", which describes the situation much more accurately.
It irks me to a great extent how you cannot debate certain topics without immediately being labelled as an apologist or a supporter. Nuance no longer exists.

It's interesting to me how weighty and important technical decisions get made on the basis of the most superficial aesthetic considerations. XML's data model is beautiful, but on a syntactic level, it's kind of ugly, and I think it's mostly for this reason that a certain segment of the industry eschews it even today.

Honestly, if XML had kept SGML-style implicit closing tags, we might have never seen the rise of alternative data markup systems.

That is, instead of

<foo>some_value</foo>

you should be able to write (as you can write in SGML)

<foo>some_value</>

There. Now in exchange for a slight increase in parser complexity, you address a big syntactic wart (the repetition) the drives people away from XML. Seems like a win to me.

One thing to point out is those numbers also include CO2 from consumption of products. So some of the CO2 listed under the US is actually produced in China but attributed to the US. If a lot of the products in the US are imported from China (or have a trade deficit in general) then the US will be assigned the CO2 numbers from the places doing the exports. It's possible that the numbers would be lower if the products were produced domestically since there are stricter requirements and the price of goods would be higher (reducing consumption).

Consumption is really at the heart of it all. It will continue to grow as the population does and as the world continues to develop.

> Some have described me as being "tone-deaf," and that is fair. With my difficulty in understanding social cues, that tends to happen. For instance, I defended Professor Minsky on an M.I.T. mailing list after someone leaped to the conclusion that he was just guilty as Jeffrey Epstein. To my surprise, some thought my message defended Epstein. As I had stated previously, Epstein is a serial rapist, and rapists should be punished. I wish for his victims and those harmed by him to receive justice.

> False accusations -- real or imaginary, against me or against others -- especially anger me. I knew Minsky only distantly, but seeing him unjustly accused made me spring to his defense.

People aren't saying he's "just as guilty" as Epstein. They are saying that:

Minsky (71) had sex with a 17 year old who had been trafficked and coerced, in 2001. This was several years after (1999) rumours started spreading about "pedophile island".

In many places this makes Minsky a rapist, whether or not he knew i) she was trafficked or ii) she was coerced or iii) her age.
It does it's just that people falsely equate "playing devil's advocate" as nuance, when it's not, at all.

Because even the "big" tech from "big" companies is still shit. Have a 2020 LG TV with Google assistant built in, and it's a piece of hot garbage.

Example: I frequently switch between display profiles to suit what I need. Saying

"switch to cinema display mode" - works fine.

Saying:

"switch to user display mode" - 100% of the time results in the TV replying "which user would you like to select?".

Like...it's not my fault that the dumb TV has the custom profile named "User".

Google probably spent billions on voice recognition, but it's all worthless, because someone without an ounce of imagination just coded it to react to the words "change" and "user" as the user profile selector, the rest of the sentence be damned.

But back to cars - Google Assistant in Android Auto is equally shit. Try saying "hey google, open spotify", then "hey google, play music". 100% of the time, it switches from Spotify to Google Music. It's insane.
I'm definitely in the minority here, but I'd rather see the `else` block, since it's more explicit at-a-glance, and the logic has more symmetry with all outcomes on the same level.

One reason I like RustLang is it treats this as an ergonomic issue by appending `?` for early returns, without block-nesting. So nice.

Countries pursue war to advance their interests. Iran funds proxies and political parties abroad to be able to maintain sufficient influence on its neighbours to prevent the advancement of US interests and to prevent them from attacking Iran, as well as to destabilize some gulf states.

Democracies are just as warmongering as any other. The US and most European countries didn't see any issue in bombing Syria and Libya back to slavery, so why do you think democratic Iran will be any better?
The Key to Your Home

The key to your house, when I said house it means a home full of life that is without end,

a home full of unending wealth and riches, a home full of gold, diamond, and many things

you can think of, a home with no sorrows, pain, regret, and lost and a home full of joy, happiness, salvation,

peace. The bible says in Daniel 2:44:And in the days of these kings shall the God of heaven set up a kingdom, which shall never be destroyed: and the kingdom shall not be left to other people, but it shall break in pieces and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand for ever (KJV).
I think message is genuine, and sympathize with his stand. His work on free software has been invaluable and shaped the software world in a good way. To paint the whole person as a "bad guy" ("terrible person") in the context of the latest developments always seemed off to me.

However, usually apologies in this context backfire.
Everything that you say about this can and will be used against you.
This has happened to various people before, who (I believe) have been well-meaning but offended the wrong people.

I sincerely hope the best for him, but I don't expect this apology/elaboration will help him.
Most people didn't read it as a defence of Epstein, but (as RMS says) as a defence of Minsky.

It's that defence of Minsky that's a huge problem.
Unrelated but, I'm curious: how does RMS pay the bills? The FSF board seat is a volunteer position and he no longer works for MIT. Is he paid as a consultant or something?

Yeah, I don't hate JPA/Hibernate. I fact, I tend to hate its absence, because for me that's usually meant a four user CRUD app written with JDBC and a billion lines of boilerplate mapping between the domain and SQL CRUD statements.

I mean, there are definitely cases where JPA/Hibernate doesn't fit for all kinds of reasons, but don't avoid it where it does help (e.g. the 4 user CRUD app that needs to be "web scale").
Which apology? He’s only apologizing once quickly for losing his temper (Sometimes I lost my temper because I didn't have the social skills to avoid it. Some people could cope with this; others were hurt. I apologize to each of them.) and spends a whole lot of time explaining why he is different and we should all put up with his social ineptitude because he didn’t know better. That does not constitute an apology.

We the socially inept can and do learn to adapt. He’s a clever man, he can do it too.
Well, good for him. Hope this nonsensical witch hunt will naturally wither away.
