Heres what I'm thinking. Since we have money, we test test test to make sure things work. Then each developed nation usa, Russia, china, India, Japan, UAE, Canada, ESA etc with a space program launches 1 a day for a total of 30 days. That would allow 30 shipping containers to arrive within days of each other. The first few are redundant life support/escape/return, the next few allow you to start building, the last few allow you to grow. In the meantime we are building and launching as fast as we can. you have to think ahead by 9 months and have everything planned out as best as you can with redundancy. So scaling, teamwork, redundancy and thinking ahead. Also money, lots of money.
Having that "security joke" enforced by the South called "ActiveX", North Korea had it really easy to collapse SK down a la Blaster/Sasser way.
Shallow boring and simplified. Not worth your time.
I find that Americans give to much weight to the skin color, it has the historical reasons there but often can't be applied in the same way outside the US.

He'll probably get arrested. It's very hard, also, to smuggle himself. The options are Libya and Israel/Gaza.
From what I understood there is a huge flow of drugs like meth from NK into China. They are basically just a mafia state who will do anything for money.
My point was that "I have no legal way to leave" is a different scenario than "I won't leave until I get paid".

Both situations have a tremendous unfairness about them but they aren't the same and I don't think it is unreasonable to think that those details are an important part of the story.
"you" would then sue for damages?
> they just for some legal reason need a person on board the ship

So what if the guy in question doesn't show up?
Most of what you're saying is misleading at best.

> I saw more people wearing masks on Sydney trains at zero cases than I did in a US supermarket at the peak

That's because NSW had legislated the wearing of masks on trains until a couple of weeks ago. It wasn't voluntary, it was either wear a mask or get fined. And since the mask mandate was taken off -- surprise, surprise -- the overwhelming majority stopped wearing them on trains.

> Australian’s have made sacrifices for the greater good of all in the past (giving up guns for example)

"Giving up guns" never happened, what did happen was the forceful buyback of self-loading weapons from law abiding people who followed the law and turned them in. The people who didn't follow the law -- that is, the people who are actually responsible for the violent crime in the first place -- kept their guns and that's why self-loading firearms continue to be seized today from drug dealers and gangsters.

For some general statistics:

1. The number of homicides (and all violent crime) went up after the 1996 firearms buyback[0] and didn't go down until the police took actual action against crime in 2001

2. We have more firearms in 2021 than we did in 1996[1] and, surprising only some, less crime

The major difference in the Australian mindstate is how both major parties are centre-left so it's rare for major issues to be politicised, instead we just have politicians supporting the same things and bickering over otherwise trivial implementation details.

Have you tried libheif? According to https://github.com/joedrago/avif/issues/11, it's a bit faster. Probably will need CPU/GPU chips that can accelerate the codecs more efficiently before the encode times really start coming down.
Indeed! Instead, you’d get to live under a much smaller, less experienced, and more resource-starved government —- possibly a corporatocracy. Yay!
i am afraid the the reverse might be true, it's not that apple is afraid to put macos on the ipad, but that they would rather put ios on laptops.

ios is way more locked down than macos is, and that's what apple really wants: more control. not less.

so if they dared, they would do just the opposite of what the article is asking.

android on laptops exists, and i believe chromebooks are similarly limited (i never used one, so i can't tell)
I based my opinion on this entry in the HN FAQ:

> Are reposts ok?

> If a story has not had significant attention in the last year or so, a small number of reposts is ok.

A story that has three upvotes and no comments hasn't had significant attention in the last year. And one repost is a small number.

International salvage law is complex, but essentially no. The ship is stills owned.by someone even when at the bottom of the sea and if you take anything from the ship without permission that is theft.

Salvagers work on contract with the owners in most cases. When they don't there are generally big lawsuits because they are entitled for compensation for their work, but if they don't give anything brought up back the the owners they are in possession of stolen property, and the law around this is complex.

If the vessel is more than 1000 years old we probably can't trace an onwer anymore and you can get by with calling it abandoned in some cases. Though even here the country who's waters it is in might consider the wreck a treasure.

He is the guard, not the owner. As such he can't sell it. The owners are probably in complex bankruptcy court and the lien holders will eventually get to figure out what to do with it, but that will take years to resolve. Indeed the expense of resolving this might be more than the ship is worth so nobody actually wants to resolve it.
Sure if that is the case, it is not a good trade-off. But that is a much different situation than the one that was communicated by the reporting, which suggested he had no legal way to leave.

I'm still not sure I have an accurate picture of the situation.
I think that being charged with perjury is a penalty too high for lawyers as a group to accept could be a consequence of simply filing a DNCA notice on behalf of a corporation. So I doubt it'll happen. If there were a special penalty, more of a slap on the wrist, but enough to inconvenience lawyers who sign off on these bogus claims, then I think that it would be, counterintuitively, more effective.
I don't understand the question. By fast I mean that they had a statement up on the website within 24 hours and the associate head of the department is already pinging members of the kernel team on Twitter to ask how they can get unbanned. That's moving very quickly by academic standards.
That's precisely what people do -- they design workflows that leverage AI to handle the forms that it can, and humans to handle the forms that it can't. And constantly retrain the AI based on what the nice humans just labeled. As the AI gets better less needs to go to the humans, but they're always there for the exceptional cases. BTW this isn't theoretical -- this is current best practice.
If you're making a PR to my repository, I would like to be in control of whether my repository's resources are used for your PR or not. It doesn't matter whether you've had your account for 10 minutes or 10 years.

(And they certainly are "my repository's resources", since the build machines pool is shared between workflow runs for branches and PRs.)

They're codifying what a lot of repositories do with bots today anyway, where a maintainer triggers the CI to run on a PR by posting a comment.

Also I'm confused how you can simultaneously berate them for not building a user reputation system, and then berate them for hypothetically building a user reputation system.
Man these details are important.

The BBC article makes it feel like he was alone for 4 years and somehow was able to stay alive with no food/water for 3 of them before the ship drifted closer to shore where he could now 'buy food and water'.
I see. that's a very interesting perspective. Thanks!
Given that it's not possible for a machine that represents numbers as any finite number of bits to accurately represent the uncountably infinite set of real numbers, it's guaranteed that there are going to be conditions where floating point arithmetic produces inaccurate results.

And given that it's not possible to avoid the floating point processor being mildly broken in some conditions, I suppose the least-bad solution is for the M1 to be mildly broken in exactly the same way that the existing Intel processors are, rather than being mildly broken in a completely different way.

Principle of least surprise.

Godot looks awesome but what keeps me from using it is the lack of console support. Does anyone know why that is? I’m guessing licensing and stuff like that.

Might be third party companies out there that could be hired to do the porting, but I don’t know.

I think many software engineers could get benefits out of learning some project management skills, but I must say I'm also skeptical of the benefits they'd get from more theoretical knowledge of project management in themselves.

But I also have an immediate reaction to the term "body of knowledge" in the context of PM, which is to reinterpret it as "cargo cult." Hopefully they have something different in mind here, but that's often what it ends up as in practice.
If you click the green CODE button the download ZIP button is still there at the bottom of the menu.
Ah, good old SWEBOK. There's a bit of history to this document. Most of us who started our careers in the last decade came up in a time of agile programming. Where code comes first and documentation is mostly just done before prod releases. The programming world wasn't always like this.

The software engineering world has a pendulum that swings between "strict process" and "just write code", and right now we're pretty far into the just writing code camp.

SWEBOK captures a lot of the push in the late 90s, early 2000s to make software engineering a licensed profession. Where most of the work would be done in UML diagrams and committees before any code was written. The thinking was that if the diagrams were thorough enough that the coding part would be trivial, almost like how blueprints are for building a house.

I doubt any of the protocols have an extortion response code.
I think what would be most shocking to Licklider's generation is how willingly we trade "free culture" for convenience and security.

I think it's even worse than this. Many populer "smart lightbulbs" are less convenient than a lightswitch and create network security holes. Alot of cloud based software is worse than locally run applications for most people's use cases. Maybe fashion is the key driver of change?
Yep. This page describes about half my day job. Our customers will run a windows application on a rather random port, and in the instructions we tell them to open firewall/AWS for it but half the time they forget.

I have a pretty decent powershell script where they put their host name and port and the script will print out what it succeeds at and fails on.
This is such a lame excuse. In 2016 there were 16 other candidates in the primary, and 4 in 2020. Literally every single one of them would have been a better choice. If all else fails, you don't vote. Don't pretend like there weren't options.

Self-righteously holding your nose and voting for a dumpster fire is still voting for a dumpster fire.
It's a bit scummy but I doubt you can do a whole lot about it. Companies like Stripe are doing a variant of this where the number of shares that vest will be dynamically adjusted every year based on a target value dollar number. The question is, will they grant you more shares than offered if the stock value goes below that you joined at? Can you get an answer to that in writing? If so, it may be worthwhile to stay, because you essentially make a guaranteed amount of money in the form of equity every year.

EDIT: This is very unusual for large public companies. This is the first time I have heard of such a practice.
Yeah, I've done it. Both as a TA and as instructor of record.

The fact that the university doesn't provide adequate staffing is not an excuse for short-changing the students still further.

Note that AVIF has no color management support at all in Firefox. https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1634741

In my case, because I have full color management enabled, the AVIF image in the article displays incorrectly (too much saturation on my wide-gamut screen) while the JPG and WebP display correctly.
Oh is that why so many people I don't know with no mutuals add me on Facebook? They're going to have to impersonate someone I know for that to work.
You can find examples of such bad behavior in pretty much every state; it's by no means unique to Egypt.

> No, Tesla very clearly says that full self driving is a future feature and not one that is available today

But this is the sort of thing Tesla says with a megaphone:

https://www.theverge.com/2019/4/22/18510828/tesla-elon-musk-...

Where are all those robotaxis?

The fine print doesn't defend their grubby marketing and it's little wonder people believe the cars to be capable of more than they are. Just using the phrase "full self driving" in relation to a system not capable of it is bad enough.
I taught at a Big 10 university for 12 years, both as a TA and as instructor of record.

So I think I actually understand the system pretty well.

Edit: teaching is part of the job, dude. It just is. If you asked the average taxpayer (you know, the ones who pay the base salary before grant money is taken into account) whether teaching is an important part of the job, what do you suppose they're going to say?

If you don't want to teach, you need to find a job that doesn't involve teaching. If you accept a job that requires teaching, you're morally obligated to provide the best teaching you can.

Or so I see it.
Most washers (especially top loading) in Japan don't support warming water so people wash with cold water, use hot bath water, or hopefully the house has hot water faucet for washer.

I've bought an expensive front loading washer-dryer with water heater (upto 60C) and heat pump dryer recently. Now I always wash with at least 15C water, even 15C, it's significant difference in cold winter situation.
Another great contribution from ankane.

Agreed. It's really easy to say "stop hating each other" when you refuse to point the finger at the media companies which have stoked the flames of division.

The Hill, like the Observer, used to be a great actual newspaper.

The reporting in there was just phenomenal.

And then presumably some conservative billionaire took it over and turned it into fox news light.

Jared Kushner did the Observer takeover and turned it from something very weird and entertaining and serious and very New York into a directionless soup of trivialities.

I used to buy and actually read the physical weird-somewhat-grapefruit-pink-colored newspaper on my way to/from my office near wall street.

Sometimes things 'back in the day' really were a lot better.

I have never seen anti-vaxxers in the majority of the population.

Credit goes to successive governments from various parties, who have largely not politicized the issue.

It also helps that the previous and current generation have seen the effects of non-vaccination, like polio afflicted ones.

In general, the population goes by the word of the medical establishment and there are no nonsensical opposing voices.

What is happening in USA is puzzling to me. Just goes to show that you can have all the wealth, infrastructure, research and qualified personnel in the world and still be beholden to crackpot ideas and conspiracy theories.
The title should also drop the "the", which makes you brace for a document by a non-native speaker.

More expensive, and not always necessary. But great point.
I kinda agree, and I do like playing and making video games myself, but I don't want people to be uppity about it. It is a very complex form of art, yes, but more "advanced"? It's certainly not as matured as novels or movies. It's still very much commercial oriented. I, for one, really want to see games that have a powerful political/environmental message that makes you uncomfortable after playing it (e.g. playing as a nazi officer or slave trader), but they're probably not going to be a commercial success, so they probably won't get made.
The quality of most paintings (and sculptures, poetry, novels, plays...) is quite bad as well.
I think most of the time I would use SQL subscriptions to notify web clients that they are stale but don't auto update the client's state unless the form is read only otherwise current client state could be destroyed

React server components can do intelligent merges, in client action or on tick, I guess it would just mean hooking into that system to prevent automatically merging in all cases in favour of manual merges client side sometimes

Seriously. Despite the creative license in storyline and action sequences, you feel like you're in 19th century America in a way that no other experience I've had has captured.
There's lot of different TLDs each with their own rules, fees, and registrars. It's hard to unify that landscape, particularly when a bunch of ccTLDs have very little infrastructure behind them.

The closest you can really get is hiring a mark protection firm like MarkMonitor which themselves are registrars for a handful of TLDs (namely .com) and can basically indefinitely extend registrations for everything they have contracts for.

if you're looking at pg materialized views, look at listen/notify too.

so, the builder Listens and write queries then Notify, so re-do the m-view?

or just use Notify with good payload after each write you think is important? (I use this sometimes)

I mean, a trigger to push could work, yea?

or, some clever rig with pg-logical replication (I'd have to think on this one more, may be crap)

Have many of us have become the useful idiots of the corporate media overloads?

I know it's fashionable to blame Facebook for the divisiveness, but I'm old enough to recall Obama's 2004 DNC speech that got him his first national attention. Before there was Facebook, Obama was talking about divisiveness.

I firmly believe anger and anxiety is constantly injected into the mainstream corporate media to increase eyeballs and stickiness. One of the side effects of this content strategy is the divisiveness we see now.

Yes, Facebook (or twitter) amplifies these, but that's because Facebook provides every one of us a platform to exhale the frustrations we accumulate consuming these anger-laden content.

Ingeniously, the corporate media blamed all these on Facebook and whoever is/was advising Zuck really failed to come up with a solid strategy to counter this narrative beyond rebranding FB app icon and some color scheme changes.

A FPTP two party system almost necessitates culture war, since by definition if you're for one party you're against the other.

At the end of the day you're forced to pick a side. The anchors are suggesting you ignore that eventuality.
The problem with the other interpretation is that we exclude things that are obviously art (a painting stops being art when you use it) and you have a massive gray area (a urinal, placed in an art exhibition).

By using interpretation, it becomes “closer” to correct — its art, when one treats it as such. A urinal changes from a tool to an art piece based on context and its viewers.

And then it becomes a question of if anything can be art, and anyone can interpret anything as art, then when isn’t it? And my answer really boils down to reasonable and group interpretation — it’s “art” when a sufficient number of people (a percentage of relevant population) considers it so, and it is generally treated as such when it holds certain qualities (an interesting statement, an aesthetic, sufficient skill, etc).

That is, like currency, it only holds value so long as people believe it holds value. Anything can be used as currency, and you can correctly claim anything to be currency, but it’s quite meaningless without convincing others to buy into your interpretation

Thus, anything can be called “art” if you can convince enough people of it — and this is how it works out in the “real world” as well (graffiti switches from art, to a statement, to a public menace, and back to art, depending on what group you’re talking to)

Also note the similar question: what defines a chair?
