I agree that it can be a bit daunting to operate, there are a few footguns around that, while it might not lead to data loss, but can lead to unfortunate situations.

Just the other day someone on the mailing list had managed to add a single drive as a new top-level vdev to a petabyte pool, rather than adding it as a new spare drive, simply by omitting the word "spare" from the "zpool add" command...

That said, I've been using ZFS at home here with 6+ disks for almost a decade now, and I've never lost data despite lots of various incidents, including lots of power losses and various hardware failures (like disks, mobo and PSU). So overall I'm very happy with it.

Here’s another one that came to my attention:

“He Dreamed of Being a Police Officer, Then Was Killed by a Pro-Trump Mob”

https://web.archive.org/web/20210109011156/https://www.nytim...

“Then on Wednesday, pro-Trump rioters attacked that citadel of democracy, overpowered Mr. Sicknick, 42, and struck him in the head with a fire extinguisher, according to two law enforcement officials. With a bloody gash in his head, Mr. Sicknick was rushed to the hospital and placed on life support. He died on Thursday evening.”

That pretty much says it all, doesn’t it? Surely the hospital could have confirmed or denied that he was bleeding from a head wound when admitted, if they had asked. After all, they claim to have known that he was on life support, so surely they must have asked somebody. Or they could have found out that he was admitted 8 hours later. More likely they just made things up.

That people believe police and military are by default "heroes" is a huge problem in the US. I think in this case, we're reading about an actual hero. I don't cringe reading that word in this case.

Well, they built that into photos ages ago (shared photostreams - they’re awesome for weddings and parties), and if your phone can run iMessage, it’s also already running photos…

Did you ever play ‘Martian Memorandum’?

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martian_Memorandum
This guy worked in my team for a long time, and by writing this post he gained back my respect.

While I think he is a missed opportunity for consensus-workplace-realty in which we live, anyone that sets their own rules and principles and firmly acts from there is worth my esteem, especially if those principles don’t hurt any other being and on the contrary represent an element of novelty in the too constrained way we look at the world of work.
Clearly he has to define better what he can offer vs what not, for in every contract or exchange of whatever good the rules have to be well defined on both ends.

What employers often don’t take into account is how costly lack of motivation is.
I’d rather find 2 Francescos than hiring 20 standard employees that work just for money and are guaranteed to either stop producing quality work or leaving the company after a few months, years at the best, bringing back the cost of hiring someone new over and over again, or even the cost of keeping a bad hire (especially with the EU regulations)

There’s no price for talent mixed with a clear statement of interest in doing only something exciting, especially when you make the price… you’d have to be a fool not to try out someone so sincere and willing to put on the table their intentions, and then take it from there.

I might be wrong of course, I work for the biggest corporation out there and don’t hire directly, but seems a good deal to me!!

> I think Go is in a honeymoon phase and people will hate it in 10 years; ..

I wrote some Go code for talking LDAPs and doing some CRUD Ops. Do I love this code? Nope. Do I love the product that I built? Very Much.

I think love of language is somehow very much a Rust thing at least compared to Go.

> Rust on the other hand is optimized for maintaining

This seems to be a tall claim. So often in Rust some or other library, web framework goes defunct or abandoned. And they are not exactly in finished state so no maintenance is required. Same thing happens with other languages too. But Rust is quite young, even then we have abandoned projects. In 10 years I am not sure how Rust codebases will be more maintained not less. Now one can say maintenance point is about commercial projects where people are paid to maintain. Still then not sure how loved it would be by maintainers when original developers are long gone.
I buy the distinction you’re making, but not the conclusion. There is some art used in games, separate from the art that is the game itself.

> few people would claim to fall in love with the video game [...] No one feels an emotional connection to game mechanics

I think you’ll have a hard time convincing gamers of this line of thinking. Mario Bros, Doom, Kerbal Space Program, Worms, Secret of Monkey Island, Warcraft, Celeste ... and so many other games have delightful mechanics that people love. It is different than a story, but you’re using the idea that it’s different to invalidate mechanics as art. It doesn’t have to be the same kind of emotional connection. People don’t have the same emotion connection to Leonardo’s ornithopter as they do to DaVinci’s Mona Lisa, yet nobody would even attempt to make the argument that the ornithopter isn’t art.

Art is and always has been in the eye of the beholder, so my disagreeing doesn’t need to change your opinion, but FWIW games absolutely count as art in my book, and many others’. Not all games are good art, but a few games are great art.

I don't see how that makes games different from other forms of media, you could apply the same argument to high budget blockbuster movies.

Games present more options for commercializing, but at the same time I think that games have a lot more moving parts that can be seen as forms of artistic expression
Somewhere between Muybridge's horse gaits and Citizen Kane, film went from technical novelty to unquestionably art. Somewhere between Pong and Journey, games made a similar transition.

The OP doesn't mention a date, but the linked MoMA post says the collection was established in 2012: https://www.moma.org/explore/inside_out/2012/11/29/video-gam...
To be even more explicit: the people with the very highest incomes in the 1950s did not have any significant part of their income fall into the top tax bracket. They did whatever they had to do to not make that happen. They structured it as capital gains and dividends from their businesses, they used deductions for real estate depreciation, etc etc. (To do otherwise would have been insane.)

> the 91 percent rate kicked in for each dollar earned over $400,000 – the equivalent of $3,426,776 in constant 2013 dollars

So, the top 0.01% (the top 1% of the top 1%) must have made significantly less than $800k ($7 million today) yearly throughout the 1950s in order to pay around 50% total on average each year. I'm sure _some_ of them were executives that would have made a million or two in salary, if the top income bracket was much lower. But instead they had most of their salary turned into benefits and shares or whatever/however it would not be classified "income", and they were successful at this.
Both this article and the Ars Technica article (https://arstechnica.com/cars/2021/04/consumer-reports-shows-...) are prime examples of misinformation and fake news. Unfortunately they won’t be flagged as such by Twitter or Facebook, even though they very regularly flag other articles for having misleading headlines or missing context.

The Consumer Reports people went out of their way to bypass Tesla’s existing safety features, by placing a fake weight on the wheel (a heavy chain) and by buckling the seat belt without anyone sitting there. So what - it’s a contrived experiment.

Lots of people in social media seem to hate Elon Musk and are using this as some sort of indictment of him or Tesla. I don't see anything particularly interesting or outrageous about this. People can misuse cars already, and they will come up with clever workarounds in the future as well. It’s not exclusive to Tesla. It’s not even exclusive to cars. You could misuse a kitchen knife as a toothbrush but that doesn’t mean Cutco need to be regulated.

> f you want to use the nice partial refresh waveform, the open source aspect of this is going to run face first into secrecy requirements. The company selling you the display controller may be willing to build you an out of tree kernel module, and you can totally figure out what it does, but it won't be open source at that point.

I'm sorry but you're making rather clearly incorrect statements which makes me suspicious of the veracity of your other comments. I'm quite familiar with their current and past technologies. You used the term "Partial refresh waveform". First of all, E Ink's active matrix electrophoretic displays like the ones in the Kindle don't need to be refreshed. That's a fundamental property. Secondly, in case you meant "partial update", that's a property of the display controller, not of the waveform. You can google this and easily see that it in fact open source and commonly utilized. https://github.com/UDOOboard/Kernel_Unico/blob/master/driver... . Most modern EPDC even the hardware ones contain that feature and it is exposed as open source.

> run face first into secrecy requirements.

I'd like to see an elaboration of your claims. Please share what evidence you have about all this "secrecy". I work in the display industry, not for E Ink, and I've never heard of these things going on so it would be quite interesting for me to learn about it.
But then it's in a single-sign-on system with some other services... Where that same maximum length is also the minimum length for at least one sub-system.

Do you think Kalanick would react the same if instead of "happy ending" for a dessert at an Asian restaurant, it was something like "Uncle Tom's Chicken & Watermelon"? To me, this is just another example of the acceptance of racism toward Asian people in American society.

Perhaps don’t temper the political discussion, but what are other solutions that could engage the people in those militias? Some of them are unassailable I’m sure, but not all. For example, less power in DC and more locally could go a long way to appeasing most people.

This proposal gives more people in some areas more than they have now, at the expense of what others _have now_. I fully support equal representation as just, but you can’t ignore that people will react negatively. They are millions of people who are our neighbors.

I found the article a good thought experiment. But that’s all I think it is. This proposal seemingly has low probability of happening anyway, as it would remove its own set of power now from the people who would have to pass it. :)

I used to enjoy talking to strangers with no real intention or expectation from them. It was fun.

> Early websites had one huge advantage - easy to build. Back then there were only static websites and They were made by people who didn't have to know how to code because HTML alone is easy to produce and also you could make a document in MS Word and export it as a .html. Hosting was done through FTP. Websites started like a front-end(back-end was just a folder with HTML and image files). It wasn't like learning C++. Anyone with a browser could be a consumer and creator without much sweat.

Remarkable point here. Which the author contrasts against blockchain technologies, which are complex multi-faceted systems.

Although distributed, the blockchain technologies feel like far more centralized activities & protocols, where-as the web permitted a lot of innovation & uses.
Just to play devil's advocate: the argument in the negative would probably say that video games are consumer electronics. And therefore more formally belong in the design category. You can't separate the commercial aspect, from the medium. And no artist has yet arguably manifested a visionary work from a "game engine". It's just code and art assets after all. Looking at the History of Computer Art, digital images created from algorithms draw a direct line of descent from Sol LeWitt's conceptual works. Manfred Mohr considered his geometric plots a kind of "digital painting". Computer Games have existed since PDP-1 SpaceWar! (1962). Has there ever been a Computer Art Game?

There is also the question of preservation. A digital video of a Computer Art work can be transmitted forever using open codecs. But what are we referring to when we talk about Video Game Art. The visuals and sounds, or the game play itself?

TBH I actually wish MoMA took video games as first class citizens. In the manner of their excellent film and video wings. Rhizome, Bitforms, Ars electronica, even the Smithsonian Institute are all probably better staffed for emulation into the distant future ;)

This sounds like really bad code was allowed to be checked in, not the fault of the language. You can make terrible code in almost any language.

The above does not match my experience in maintaining large go codebases because of proper code reviews and expectation of writing maintainable code.

What I’m saying I tested is your theory that you can just ask the marketplace to reverse a transaction on the basis of your listing price being in error.

Of course I did that because I had just sold crypto comic book.com on their marketplace. And they refused to reverse my sale.

And you don’t think I did that ? Why would anyone make that up?

It’s really not on me to test the accuracy of a publicly traded company’s auction website or a seller who may or may not have priced their item in error. It would only be a moron who didn’t buy it under the circumstances, it’s not like I was responding to a Nigerian prince email, it’s a publicly traded company’s auction marketplace that claims to verify domain ownership before listing.
This is a dumb argument because they were at least trying to IMPLEMENT A COUP. It seems pretty clear to me that they would have assaulted and killed representatives if they would have gotten the chance which they very nearly did.

Also, don't call them "protestors". The nicest term I can think of for them would be rebels since they were in open rebellion to the United States. Some people at the capital that day were protestors, but the people who stormed the capital went far beyond protest.
> At the start of the pandemic, everybody wanted masks.

I'm of the opinion that the CDC definitely shot itself in the foot w.r.t. the mask issue initially, but I feel it's important to note that the especially belligerent individualists wanted masks when they thought they would protect themselves, but were completely uninterested in their use when they were determined to primarily be effective as a form of source control to protect others.
Is it normal for companies to change their compensation package after starting?

Also in Chicago here.

I, too, have seen 100% mask compliance in grocery stores.

And when I was downstate for a non-COVID family medical emergency during the December peak, I saw 100% compliance…in the grocery store. The gym? Ha. Nary a mask in sight. They actually scoffed at me when I asked when I went in for a day pass. And this is a franchise of a national gym.

And from friends’ experiences, you had to go all as far as Indiana to experience maskless in Meijer.
> the only one I would recommend is a massive cliche but I do think it's actually quite good: How to Win Friend and Influence People. It's a quick read.

It’s a very good book. However, for me personally, it was too advanced in the beginning.

The book that really helped with first dealing with social anxiety was The Charisma Myth by Olivia Fox Cabane. It has a bunch of exercises that allow you to be present and become more social.

To put it in perspective: The Charisma Myth tells you what to do and HTWFAIP tells you what to say.

If you are too nervous/anxious and you mostly just want to get out of there, then read The Charisma Myth first. If you are mostly ok with being around people in general, but don’t really know how to strike a conversation, then try How to Win Friends.

>"happy ending" for dessert

I am expressing no opinion on whether this is ok or not, but there has been a chain restaurant in the northeastern US catering mainly to families whose signature dessert was a "happy ending" sundae for decades.

And it appears that they do not use that phrase any more, but I found evidence it was eliminated in the last 3 years. I don't know why - it might have been a combination of changing sensibilities and their bankruptcy leading to reexamining things.

Realistically, that first definition is slightly ambiguous; it may or may not mean to imply that the talk is supposed to be promotional and not derisive in order for the definition to apply. I am guessing that they probably did mean to imply that connotation, though, based on other information on the page.

I'd argue, though, that the reality is that the word's meaning is in the process of shifting from being a synonym for "promote" to being a synonym for "make out to be"; that reflects much common usage, and dictionaries always lag behind a bit in cases like this. They have to - they're a descriptive artifact, not a prescriptive one.
I actually find that these nanny features can be to be annoying.
