In the deep creeks there's nothing, no RV parks or anything for that matter, but that is a pretty extreme location to get to. But every other place I've been to in western Utah for climbing, hiking, camping is also quite remote, not as extreme as the Deep creeks, but they all involve driving down horrendous 4x4 roads with no services let alone charging for miles. Here's some of the climbing areas I'm talking about[1]. Although most areas are not written down as that is the local tradition.

How Extremists Weaponize Irony to Spread Hate
People that bought new Apple products early in Apple's rise had similar experiences. As new product categories were introduced from the 1998 iMac onward, more technical users complained about nits in "rev A" products, tending to wait for the second revision ("rev B") to buy.

For example, here's a post from 2006 asking "Wait for rev B?" about the then-new Intel-based iMacs: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/482029?page=2

You are right that some existing automakers will succeed. Still, I believe that in a decade's time the consensus view about this will be that Tesla won.
That's why I use Firefox, but I know people who aren't willing to switch from Chrome :)
But... it's there. Without the "adequately" its not Hanlon's razor, its random other razor that is probably less accurate.
Well, the first outbreaks in Europe were in Italy and Spain, too, so I'd say they had more of an excuse than the rest of us.

A big contributor (at least according to local epidemiologists) was the numbers here in Belgium were over reported, whereas most countries under reported. There was also an issue getting accurate numbers, because (mostly privately run) elderly homes weren't looking into it carefully enough to distinguish between Covid and other causes. That said, balls were definitely dropped.
I run KDE and KMail integrates nicely.

A while back it had problems with Gmail, but despite Google's best efforts to break compatibility it works pretty well today.

Unified inbox, fast search, highly configurable. It has a couple of rough edges around the UI (it's probably not for grandma), but it's still by far the best desktop mail client I've used.

Oh, and K9 mail for android!

That's not what I said. The difference is whether you see an difference of opinion or something that is so ideologically different that you can not tolerate their opinion.

The Fantano phenomenon puzzles me. I have tried to watch his videos, but they're so boring. He looks into the camera for 10+ minutes just talking.

There are never any cut-aways, or song clips, or on-screen graphics...anything to reduce the monotony. And yet he has a million subs and the comments section does include discussion of the record. It's not very deep, but it does exist.

For me though, it's too boring. I'd read the review if he wrote articles, but definitely would not watch.

It's still an inconvenience. It's a minimum 5 minute detour, possibly more depending on your route, versus plugging in your car when you get home which adds maybe 10 seconds to your home routine.
Emacs has had TRAMP[1] (transparently allows you to edit remote files in your local editor using an SSH client) for literally decades now, while SSHFS has been around for nearly as long, and even zeitgeist tools like Visual Studio Code have equivalent TRAMP-like/auto-SSH addons.

The "it's not available on remote machines" line of reasoning hasn't been valid for at least 20 years (age of TRAMP), except for the case where you cannot SSH and have to physically sit at different consoles.

That's not true. This is the reason why movies will have a statement that similarity to real people is only coincidental.
you could've also just set-up an /etc/nanorc file with the appropriate flag set.

Interesting game idea :) I initially thought it could actually read old tapes, I was hoping this because I'm trying to recover some old Atari stuff. But no.

Funny idea though!
I think sites like Reddit are the modern version of Usenet. The subreddits aren't hierarchical, but I'm not sure that matters.

The clear problem with that is the lack of federation, but I don't think users generally care about that.
There are:

55k "Locomotive engineers and operators" (90% male)

1.7m "Chief executives" (70% male)

1.9m "Software developers" (80% male)

3.2m "Architecture and engineering occupations" (85% male)

Maybe there is a lot of handwringing within the locomotive industry, but it really doesn't seem important enough for the rest of us to care about.

If you work in a 'number crunching' domain it's worth learning enough Fortran to be able to read it. You'll at some point probably have to look at some Fortran code and try understand how it works (or doesn't work).

However the chances that you'll be called upon to write new Fortran is tiny.
Whether it smears your tribe or not...
We used docker-compose as a starting point because we were thinking along the same lines. In order to orchestrate the deployment of a complicated app, docker-compose became a much smaller part of solution; docker-compose is helpful for getting some partial service definitions created, but there is so much more to deploying environments.

We are a full CI/CD platform with the ability to do static javascript builds, build-x builds, installing in our customers clusters, installing in their customers clusters, dealing with routing for ephemeral environments, creating pools of resources for ephemeral environments to attach to, deploying and monitoring production environments, a workflow engine and we are just getting started!

We do run into objections along the way like, "can't a couple of people do this pretty easily", but depending on what you want to do, it grows in complexity quickly. A lot of time teams don't realize that until they are way down the path of trying to create a system like this.

If you have any specific questions about how ReleaseHub works let me know, happy to answer anything!

One thing I've found nano useful for: git commit messages.

If the commit file is empty, that cancels the commit. Nano will tell me how many lines it actually wrote, so if I have second thoughts I can cancel with certainty. Nano may well not be unique in that regard, but I tripped over another editor that saved what I thought was an empty file as a single line with just the EOL character.

Here is some more data.

Deaths from all causes has declined rapidly in the U.S. since January. The red dotted line is my best attempt to correct for reporting lag: https://i.imgur.com/z8M0k2h.png

Excess deaths exceeded COVID deaths every week of the pandemic: https://i.imgur.com/MeGMsRx.png

Total excess deaths in the U.S. were about 500,000 for 2020. The excess breaks down as 77% COVID, 16% non-COVID natural causes, and 7% external causes for the whole year. External causes include homicide, suicide, accidents, overdoses/poisonings.

The count of COVID deaths include COVID as underlying cause of death (91%) and COVID as a contributing cause (9%). Even when including the contributing cause, it looks like COVID deaths were significantly undercounted in the first wave March/April/May and somewhat undercounted in the later waves. https://i.imgur.com/YjZeI2E.png

Deaths from most major categories were higher or unchanged: https://i.imgur.com/TDGwVU9.png

Excess deaths by age group: https://i.imgur.com/oKda9Dl.png

Ages 0-14 had lower than normal deaths in 2020.

OKRs are the opposite.

In your example, the "O" would be something like "provide a good experience for app users" and a "KR" would be "improve star ratings from 4.2 to 4.5". The "O" helps keep you focused on what you actually care about, making the metric subservient to that goal.
I don't have any insights into the post-pandemic picture, but up until early 2020 when I was working with flight tickets, the general pattern looked the same: roughly 90 days ahead is the best time to book.
I doubt a rising wave of baby boomer deaths is going to have a significant change on those statistics, but if your objection is correct, the death rate should continue to rise, so in a couple of years we can look back and see if you were right. Or look at mortality by age.
I think by that they referred to audio cassette tapes specifically, not the custom tapes used for backups these days nor the tape reels of the 60s/70s. They don't use audio as an intermediate format like the 8-bit era tape drives did. As cleaning up this audio is the main gameplay mechanic here, it makes sense that that sentence refers to audio tapes specifically.
I lived in Germany in the 90s and early 2000s, loathed techno, and I must admit that bouncing around a dozen or so of these videos gave me a flashback of nostalgia for lost youth mixed with the same desire to escape the music.

Yea definitely. They aren't always at the best spot. Sometimes we grab food on the way to the charger and then just eat it there. The best ones IMO are at grocery stores or nicer gas stations/travel centers.
> the simple truth of the matter is that regular kernel developers continue to insert bugs at such a rate that there should be little need for malicious actors to add more.

Dmitry Vyuko[0] estimated in 2019 that each kernel release contains >20,000 bugs. As an outsider looking in, it seems that the kernel needs a lot more boots on the ground focusing on maintenance.

Let me put it this way - Microsoft signed on to the suit too, but how many competing app stores does Microsoft allow on the Xbox?

They have their own twisted logic on why Apple should have to open up and they shouldn't, but none of these companies are doing it for the morals, they want to use the courts to lever open Apple's bank vault and will then immediately turn around and argue why those rules shouldn't apply to them. They also don't really care about the impact it will have on end-users w/r/t large apps immediately starting their own "app stores" to bypass app review and start exploiting user data.

Apple's an easy target because Apple as a corporation is far more unpopular than, say, Microsoft or Sony, but these other companies use the exact same business model, and when it comes down to it they will cite the exact same reasons. "Oh we wouldn't want malware, sexual content, or malicious software to take root on the Xbox" and so on.

- One IDE that fits all environments. I'm a bit tired of having to switch between: Vim, PyCharm, GoLand, etc.

- Lightweight. Don't mind if the initial load takes a bit of time

- Easy replicable configuration at ~/.THE_IDE/config, so that one can just share the config file and any other person can reproduce your IDE environment (e.g., debugging settings, colorscheme, shortcuts, etc.)

- Free. Although I wouldn't mind paying once (no subscriptions)

- Works as a GUI and as a CLI (e.g., GVim and Vim)

> if someone's attacking you with their fists, they're potentially threatening your life ... use whatever tools are at your disposal to neutralise the threat.

If a sentence like that is assimilated by the most obtuse cops (not all cops are super great critical thinkers) then I am not surprised of the current situations happening in the US.

What if it's an old lady trying to hit the cop because of an anxiety episode? I've seen a lot of videos on Reddit of cops tazing, pulling guns and acting super aggressive at mad old women probably because "cop's life potentially under threat".

This technique is really effective when the attacker does a little bit of homework on the system: if it’s a web server, a lot of people (even security analysts) will miss that the 147 httpd process are 146 /usr/sbin/httpd and one /usr/local/sbin/httpd — or they’ll assume that was where someone installed a custom build.

You can use heroku, but as your app grows in complexity, (say static javascript frontend, backend, queue, and maybe a few AWS or GCP native services) you have to stitch something together with heroku + vercel + ?? + can't use RDS, but wish i could. :)

Heroku review apps are analogous to our ephemeral environments, but we can deal with much more complicated environments, which reduces complexity in your CI/CD platform, production deployments or on-premise deployments if needed.
I'm assuming the charging infrastructure, and electric vehicles in general around 2030 - 2035 to be way better and not suffer from these issues I mentioned above. I just think right now EVs are unpractical for people who don't live in their own house and people who travel long distances or into very remote areas.

This is pretty noisy as backdoors go. I wouldn't call this stealthy.

It places a whole bunch of files in various locations, is running as a separate process, and doesn't do https properly.

It's surprising really - when LD_PRELOAD'ing your malware into an existing process is way stealthier. Preferably one that nobody will bat an eyelash at for making TCP connections.

The best ones will probably hide in (places such as) your initial ramdisk, be invisible when the system is running, and copy themselves into the new ramdisk whenever you generate a new one.

Anyways. This isn't 'stealthy'. Not at all. It's hardly the bare minimum.
The major point your not mentioning is that with SF, Wordpress, or the like, there are tons of contracting opportunities. Not contracting in the sense of being a FTE with no benefits, but actually working independently with a bunch of companies.

You collect your 10-20hr a monthly retainer, plus get a project or so a year from each client. And you can spend your copious free time developing fun side projects. Plus, your skills rarely go stale because clients will look to you for lots of other technical expertise. So while Wordpress is your bread and butter, those same clients will start looking to you to integrate with other platforms, build mobile apps, and generally be a Tech Guru.

It's a good gig. I used to do it and know tons of people that wouldn't do anything else. Getting established is the hard part, plus you have to deal with billing and collecting from clients, etc.

I'd argue that people who are successful in this field have a much, much more broad skillset than their corporate developer peers, who get stuck working with one or two technologies a year.
I know I get a lot of emails that I don't open all the time but still occasionally open. I am sure there are a lot of people in a similar boat. It's definitely a bit of a hard problem.

While I think this is most likely due to masking, distancing and staying home when sick, which were all far more effective against the flu than against SARS-CoV-2, I wonder how much this was affected by some of the deep cleans that cities were doing at the beginning of the pandemic where they basically sprayed entire cities with disinfectant trucks. Does anyone with more expertise have any thoughts about that?

This is a feature: there is no way to waste time fiddling with diagram layout, and you can tell that to the cheapskates who made you switch from Enterprise Architect to PlantUML.

If you want a "finalized nice diagram", and you should need it infrequently, use a proper vector graphics editor and omit details (e.g. unimportant class members) to reduce churn and editing effort in general.
