There is a lot of detail about this in the kernel docs:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/gpu/drm-uapi.html#ope...

The gist of it is that breakage is OK if the userspace isn't open-source and that new uAPIs come around every few years due to the rapid pace development of GPUs.

I worked on Chrome OS graphics for years on and one of my earliest projects was to bring DRM/KMS (then a newish interface) to the Cirrus display card (an ancient card that QEMU happens to emulate).

so a star A at the distance 13.7B ly from us is running away with "c". Until you believe that today is an unique moment in time, we can expect that in 100M years a star B at the distance 13.8B ly will be also moving with "c" away from us.

If we allow for accelerated expansion of the Universe, then it means that the star B is closer to us then the star A (with the star A moving away faster than "c" in 100M years from today - i.e. accelerated expansion) - i.e. today the star B is closer to us than 13.7B ly and runs away slower then "c", and thus in the next 100M years the star B would be expected to make a journey longer than 100M ly - from some point today closer to us than 13.7B ly to the point at 13.8B ly in 100M years - i.e. it would need to run away faster then "c" during those 100M years which is clearly a contradiction.

That leads to conclusion that whatever speed a star runs away with today, it will be running away with the same speed tomorrow - that means decreasing Hubble constant - which is normal giving the same energy being spread in a bigger and bigger space. And when it comes to observing the observable Universe - the star A will always run away with "c", and whatever stars B are closer to us then the star A ( and thus running away slower than "c" today), those stars B will never run away faster than "c" - thus the light from them will always come to us.

Note: the stars which are farther away moving faster isn't acceleration of expansion. Acceleration of expansion would be if the same stars were running away faster tomorrow than today - which would clearly lead to the contradiction pointed above. Hubble constant decreasing with time is the only way to avoid that contradiction. That also probably explains different Hubble constant values we currently have - as they are obtained using signals from different points in the Universe history.

> Why do you assume you are being trolled?

Well I did say I assume I'm not being trolled so I'm not sure what you're referring to. As a teams user I asked a good faith question to try and flesh out her reasons for considering banning Teams.

But to give you a reason why someone might assume a troll

- random internet stranger

- Microsoft mentioned, some people just don't like them as a company

- no actual reason given, just a comment with zero supporting evidence.

How many more reasons would you like?
Bitcoin and all of crypto, in its entirety, is a Ponzi.

It is backed by the same USD that Bitcoin fans claim is worthless, yet they price it in USD and extract USD from it to buy things.

Eventually one day the USD supplies will get dangerously low and there will be a systemic bank run and it will collapse. It came dangerously close in 2018. The tide will eventually go out again.

Two economic laws of gravity: wildcat banking systems always fail, and it is never different this time.

How on Earth can you work at Tulane and live in NOLA and write this? Were you here last March and April? Are you and I living in different planes of existence that merely intersect physically? Only closed islands are going to get to herd immunity naturally.

Look at Hotez's interview here: https://www.houstonchronicle.com/news/houston-texas/health/a...

"To make things worse, we’re starting to see now, in the upper Midwest, a number of young adults getting very sick. The COVID-19 narrative has always been that it affects older individuals. That was never entirely true, especially among African American and Hispanic populations. But we’re seeing now a lot of young adults get sick. That gives me pause for concern — as does its transmissibility among young people."
That new link is pretty pathetic as a justification for derision. I'll take one and only example because if I did as many as I could do I would come across as an apologist when really your sources are just absolute garbage. They are full of straw men and fallacies. Don't get me wrong - you can point to one that is reasonable. It's just that as a wall of argument that is full of garbage is a gish gallop. It's a technique of rhetoric not reason. So I'm not going to treat your sources as something I should be reasonable with, since they are unworthy of the effort.

Yeah. A well-performing fund will never open its books for a seven figure check. They could likely find a senior employee (not even a partner) willing to invest that.

I love Firefox and I use it on principle. I don’t think I have a worse web experience, although that wouldn’t stop me.

What does break websites is turning on anti-tracking measures. The number of times a site won’t work till I enable third party cookies shows the sad state of the web. Developers, do you only test in Chrome on Windows with default settings or something?

That humans exist a mere 14 billion years into a universe that will exist for many quintillions of years is so exceedingly improbable that we may very well be the first sentient life. This is one of my favorite explanations for the Fermi Paradox.

My other favorite is that there is no Paradox. The signs of alien civilizations are everywhere,
but humans cannot perceive or understand it

I've tried to approach this thread in good faith, as your earlier replies seemed genuinely curious/discussion oriented, but the "ok, but" tone is making them seem increasingly shill-like.

I don't think anyone's "demanding" or "forcing" anything here. We're simply describing a definition of what we consider desirable as a sustainable secure messaging option, and pointing out the specific reasons that Signal isn't currently living up to that definition.

It's maintainers are free to continue on their way ignoring said definition.

Personally, my own comments are not targeted at Signal devs but rather at others who might consider using Signal thinking it provides certain guarantees when it doesn't.
Wait, you left off the next sentence, which is very important:

> Whether Rogan understood that several dozen shows were being removed — and may still be getting removed — is also unclear.

42 of his shows have been removed. Even out of 1631 shows, that seems like more than a few. For $100 million he may not care, but for general listeners its a little unnerving that Spotify would be doing this. I'm a grown adult, I can decide what I want to listen to - why are they getting in the way? One of the main of appeals of his program is that he's having interesting conversations with interesting people. He's willing to talk to people with wildly different view points. When Spotify's editors start removing shows they don't like, they also remove part of the appeal of the show. If they find so much of the show unpalatable, why did they make the deal in the first place?
This seems analogous to Howard Stern moving from terrestrial radio to satellite radio. Big financial win for the star, but ultimately less accessible content for the casual listeners.

That being said, I think every show has been pirated and is available for download somewhere.

Indeed. Google and other AI enthusiasts, please take note. We desperately need an automated system that attempts to identify these terrorists before they strike.
Yeah that one sounds like a negative being described as a positive.
It's a reasonable concern. I think we'll probably survive indefinitely, after all if Mars can be colonised it's hard to imagine we could screw up Earth so badly it's less habitable than that.

However, the planetary environment could become so hostile that it takes so much effort to maintain civilization that our capabilities become severely limited. So my concern isn't so much us dying out, as we become doomed to a fairly marginal existence, incapable of interesting achievements such as interstellar exploration.

Hypercard was a work of genius. A software masterpiece. It was quite easy to learn. It enabled beginners as well as thousands of people without technical education (e.g. most educators) by providing the versatility needed to fairly simply create thousands of responsive, easily-extensible, practical apps. And they did.

IMO, that's why it had to die ... and why it was not handed to its many user groups. Noble attempts to recreate its facility failed for lack of its ubiquity. One of the saddest stories in personal computing.
I think things might be shifting more than you realize. All the designers at my current workplace use Figma. The workplace before that was Sketch. It's only the older members of the team who have any Photoshop skills, and they rarely seem to use them these days.

Having said that, I don't think this matters so much for Adobe. They're well aware that professionals are dropping their tools. It's part of their plan, even. All their comms these days focus on "the democratization of creative tools" -- they make more money selling subscriptions to hobbyists than they ever did selling to pros.

I don’t think human science is remotely advanced enough to make one million year predictions, let alone 150 billion. We still have the giant dark matter fudge factor that eludes experimental verification, we’re still inventing new particles to make quantum math work, we still can’t come up with any theory that explains all our observations.

Extreme predictions require extreme precision of data and model, and it seems that our models have already hit their limits on much more pedestrian problems. Like Newton’s physics, they are a function that fits reality well only within a certain range of values.

This is not an anti-science sentiment, by the way, just maintaining scope and margins of error.
Heh, my answer is that I just refuse to build or work on systems where bugs aren't always super obvious. If the system gets too complex, I bisect the system.

I think I've infuriated many colleagues with this attitude, and I'm sure there's at least half of the people here who would similarly be angry working with someone like that.

Honestly, I'm not very good at writing software, I just tend to be similar to the author -- I grind more than I out-think most of my problems, and it results in a deliverable that solves it, usually, which ends up being enough to move on with.

No, they did do lots of studies for flu, and they really struggle to find a benefit for masking. Importantly, the quality of evidence for masks as source control (infected people wear masks to prevent transmission) was really bad.

I approach this from the other side. I always want to be completely in control over how a message gets sent because the different mechanisms all have unique failure reliability modes. If I want to send an SMS I go to the SMS app. If I want to send through Signal I go to Signal. That way I'm never surprised by my phone doing something unexpected like trying to use a flaky data stream instead of piggybacking on tower traffic or vice versa.

When the HSA gets to zero you reach your yearly max and insurance takes over and you don't pay any more.

I'm not sure how Amazon works, but my plans works something like (I'm rounding to make it easy, the reality is slightly more complex) that I pay everything for the first $3000, then for the next $15,000 I pay 20%, and thereafter I pay nothing. My total out of pocket is $6000/year, which is also the most I can put into the HSA per year, and my employer matches some of my contributions to in reality I'm getting $7k/year while only a few rare loop holes can get me close to needing that much. It is very rare for anyone to have more than $18k in medical expense per year (I had a baby last year and still am well below that), so for most people the HSA is another retirement account.

Now the HSA does mean I'm not paying $100/month for my insurance, but instead $600/month. However most of the money is invested using the HSA as a retirement account for my medical needs. The idea of the HSA (which has not worked out in practice) is because the money is mine I'll have incentive to shop around for cheaper medical procedures to make sure there is more money for my future retirement, and this should lower costs (in practice most medical things can't be shopped around for, but a few people do look at their itemized bills and sometimes notice a billed procedure that wasn't done).

Now that $600 is $3-4/hr, which is not insignificant to someone making $15/hr. However here again things get complex. That money is pre-tax income, so your taxes are almost cut in half for the year (granted this is only $500 - and only for a single person who can't claim anything else).

> latest glacial shift in the accretion of content control by tech platforms

It's weird that folks are pointing to a phenomena that's been going on for generations as if it is something novel. There have always been winners and losers in who controls the message. While tech companies seem to be aggregating control over some of the message, it's not like corporate America hasn't had control for a long, long time.

Whether it was print, radio, television, cinema, blogs, podcasts, music, or some other media, there's a centralization tendency. We've had breakout periods of democratization along the way, and today I think we're more democratized than we were historically. I'd wager that diverse views are more available today than they were in, say, the 80s.
Ruffle is pretty sweet, it resurrected Homestar Runner so I legally have to love it.

Have you wondered why despite being one of the most resource rich places on the planet, with some of the brightest populace, Latin America remains relatively insignificant on the world stage? Why isn't Latin America exerting it's influence and power abroad? Sure you have free access to google and Facebook, but you have no IT industry of your own. What can a software engineer except for hoping to get hired by an American company. Maybe instead of complaining about CCP power and influence, you should learn from them and have the balls to develop your industries, and maybe you'll finally escape the middle income trap
To be fair, your browser probably has a history menu option in the top menu that opens a sidebar with your recent history. You can probably right click the top page and click “open in a new tab”. This is highly discoverable and does the same thing (just in more steps). You can also select the text in your URL bar, right click and copy, then open a new tab the usual way and paste the URL there. Also the same results but highly discoverable with extra steps.

As far as I know highly discoverable means there is no hidden functionality, not that every shortcut is advertised.
The travels of Marco Polo(1300) talks about books in China so cheap that people could actually buy them as they are made from woodblocks.

But "cheap" here is not the price of a book today. A book requires someone spending at least a year writing it, specially in the past, with very bad lighting after sunset or in bad weather. That usually meant a book costing the equivalent of a car today, or even more expensive.

Chinese books were cheap compared to buying a car but way more expensive than today. And very few books could justify the investment of creating the woodblocks.

Gutenberg probably got the idea from Marco Polo,woodblock was already used for graphics in Europe, but added his knowledge with metal working and invented an alloy that expands as it cools down. That is extremely rare in metals, almost all of them contract.

That unique property gave Gutenberg type its incredible quality.

Also, Gutenberg knowledge of metal made him create a method that let you recreate the type very easily again and again when the type wears out.

And then he added the concept of the press and the distributor of ink that were taken from other professions like olive oil and wine makers(something as old as Romans in Europe).
