The solutions is so simple it leaves Google shaking in their boots.

Make the ability to use the network an app permission that can be denied.

Shady app records my call? Who cares? It can't send the data anywhere. (Assuming the permission is properly implemented.)
There's no reason to follow the internal logic of a religion when trying to understand its workings. With Sabbath, observe how the rabbis decide on how to apply the rules. They know that their task is to keep the society functional, even if they use religious language to express it.

One basic reason a community will have some arbitrary rules: They make it expensive to be part of the community. They make it harder to fake adherence and profit from the group. All members of the community understand this intuitively even if they can't express it. So they welcome what looks like silly rules to the outsider.
But what you really want for smart contract is a language with integrated formal verification. The ability to formally prove some properties of your smart contract is much valuable than functional vs imperative paradigm.

Functional programming might makes it easier to detect flaws in your programs, but when there is billions at stakes and no recourse in case of a bug, you really want your program to be flawless.
Linux phones are fancy flash drives with a touch interface.
Innovation in finding a crypto currency hook to hang a fairly ordinary piece of content marketing on. But yes, power supplies matter, and saving a watt across millions of devices always adds up.
I spent some time poking Emacs on Windows with a profiler too, also to no avail (few things I identified as suspect turned out to didn't matter). I eventually resigned to running Emacs under WSL1 and rendering it on VcXsrv on Windows side. It's very fast this way, though some filesystem-heavy operations are still slightly slower than they would be on Linux (that's a limitation of WSL and NTFS).

About the only issue I have with this setup is that I can't get color emojis to work using Microsoft's Segoe UI Emoji :). That, and if I want to call out to some Windows executable, I have to ensure I use :connection-type 'pipe instead of (the default) TTY in make-process, because otherwise I get a disconnected process that can't communicate with Emacs. But the latter is a very rare case (I only need it to drive the build system I use at work from Emacs, because it lives Windows-side).
Same is true for Walmart. If you own shelf space in a store front you get to dictate the terms for people who want to get onto those shelves.

The major difference is only that for other phones, the stores decided to let everyone go and put up diy shelves in their stores and now people are demanding the ability to do it in Apple stores too.
No one is forced to do any of this, if you were Jewish you'd know that.

Goyim is also not a slur and refers in many instances ALSO to Jews, since it just means "nation."

Quit fibbin.
There are many examples of perverse incentives.

As for the reference you provide, note that the atrocities were at the time when private companies using private militias ruled the region that was the property of a private holding of Leopold of Saxe-Coburg-Saalfeld who at the time also was the King of Belgium.

It was the Belgian state learning of these atrocities that prompted Belgian state to annex the region and bring these to a halt.

It could be argued that indeed the public sector should have learned not to trust the murky amalgam of old and new capital
Elixir is based on the BEAM virtal machine developed for Erlang. Restarting crashed (very lightweight) processes to handle errors is the normal way of doing things in that system.

LFE(Lisp-flavored Erlang) is an existing language that combines Lisp syntax with Erlang's backend, though I haven't used it myself yet.
I have currently Sony XA2 with Sailfish OS. Just ordered Xperia 10 II so I have it ready when they publish the official version for it. I have been using Sailfish as my daily driver since the original Jolla phone was released in 2013.

The only issue that I might see as a blocker for some users is that the Android layer is not perfect. It does not support Bluetooth properly so pretty much any Android app that connects to some external peripheral like smart watch will not work. Additionally, you might need to install for example microG to run some apps via the Android layer.
It's 90% complete.
I think this is a pretty silly article. Yes some PSUs are more efficient than others, but we're talking about the difference between 80% worst case to 95% best case. So at best you're lowering conspution by around 10-15%, which is not nothing, but it's also no where near addressing the fundamentally huge power consumption of crypto. Also realistically since energy is one of the two primary costs of crypto mining, miners are probably pretty clued up already about efficient PSUs so it may well be that there is 0 energy consumption that can be reduced by moving to more efficient PSUs.

It would be kind of comical if crypto miners had gone to the trouble of designing ASICs for mining but hadn't bothered to have a browse on newegg for a decent PSU.
AFAIK, if you squash merge, the SCM (intended as the repository, both local and remote) will keep only a single commit; the commits breakdown will be in GitHub's (intended as a service) history.
I've always wondered if "this call may be recorded" messages could be legally interpreted as them giving you permission to record the call, since you-know, they told you it may be recorded.
It is surprisingly difficult to make timekeeping unavailable. There are many methods, besides the official timer APIs, to get timing - as outlined in the paper "Fantastic Timers and where to find them" from TU Graz:

Microwaves don't live forever (especially newer ones). At some point the choices will be:

and

[ ] no microwave

Just like almost all newer cars now have some kind of wlan connection to the factory built in.
I remember reading this in 1986 when the Fairness Doctrine was still in effect, cable TV was in its infancy and there was no consumer internet. The steady stream of bullshit since then has turned into a raging torrent the threatens to make America ungovernable.

The only "documentation" I was able to find researching how to mine it was a Reddit thread suggesting that you have to stake a large amount of OTX to in turn be able to sell bandwidth and in turn make OTX. Previously in my hunt for documentation I stumbled upon the partners page with 4 VPN providers featured at the top of the page and the whole thing sort of clicked. I did find a Github mono-repo for what looked like the end user clients (at least from what I was able to find in the docs directory).

If my statement was incorrect (which by your half-acknowledgement I don't believe it was), then I am sorry for misrepresenting your project. A healthy dive into howtos for miners, and unwalling your garden, would clear that up.

But I do quite like the closing jab.
Not an expert, but I assume remaining particles are filtered from the exhaust fumes and/or remain part of the remaining sludge.

There are thousands of Australians who tried to get home, but were unable to. Your comment is misleading.
Mostly, yeah. Of course polyamides also produce some nitrogen compounds and PVC also produces HCl that you have to deal with, etc.

But generally, plastics are very complex long-chain carbohydrates. Burning them at low temperatures produces all kinds of partially combusted horrible byproducts, but properly incinerating them results in just water and CO2.
Maybe some of these apps are better off as websites then. Write once, run everywhere.

Embedded systems are usually purpose-built instead of the general desktop usage where users install whatever they want, leading to a much smaller amount of processes running simultaneously and effectively removing the benefits of dynamic linking.

Just like Linus for PC, I think it sensible to consider libc and other to be dynamically linked also on embedded systems, but maybe even less for other software.

It is easy to declare, but it is not easy to use:

You can pass the whole thing, but if you want to pass a subset of it? just one element?

When you want to extend it, you have to extend many individual arrays, etc. When you want to copy entry 17 to entry 50, you can't loop over the fields - you have to spell out every field.

It is technically also possible in C as long as the program can't tell the difference (thanks to the as-if rule). This is hard to prove though and in practice requires whole program compilation.
Two fallacies:

1- "Mining Involves Computation-intensive Operations" => this is just a cheap brute force loop for guessing the nonce

2- "Bitcoin is a decentralized cryptocurrency" => Whales and Pools can control the price. 65% of Hashrate is concentrated in China.

Shared libraries would be good if there were better semantics in how they're used. Saying "shared libraries bad" instead of working on fixing those semantics is unfortunate.
Cool, but not relevant to the point being made.

Without Linux Facebook wouldn’t have got off the ground either. That doesn’t mean Facebook is a Linux service, their use of Linux (like Android) is entirely an implementation detail.
Heh not really rare. They've been building loads and loads of crazy infra up in the mountainous North.
No, I specifically wanted to know why Vincent Woo, founder of CoderPad and rookie investigative journalist, was staying on this story. Your generic answer is not what I was looking for.
I highly recommend using tmux. It works well with the MS terminal (and other terminals).

You'll get forward and reverse searching, split panes, windows (similar to tabs), excellent window and pane management binds (moving them, switching orders, zooming in / out, etc.), persisted sessions that you can save and restore across reboots and good mouse support if you want it.

The best part is it works the same with every terminal so you can super charge any terminal and use the same tmux configuration in multiple environments. This way you can make a terminal choice based on optimizing for speed, low key press latency and other traits that make a terminal feel nice to use.

I gave a command line talk once that focuses on using tmux, Vim and various Unix tools at https://github.com/nickjj/nyhackr-cli-dev-env. The slides and video links are listed there. The videos all have timestamps so you can jump around to the tmux bits pretty easily.
I have a horrible feeling I'm Jew-splaining here, but I absolutely love the story and want to give more context for people who don't know it.

Your anecdote is the last in a series, describing a debate between Rabbis Eliezer and Joshua about the kosher status of the Oven of Akhnai (a clay oven which had been ritually polluted through proximity with a corpse, but was then broken up and remade). The first anecdote has Eliezer saying, "If I'm right, let that carob tree get up and move over there!". The tree did indeed uproot itself and move a substantial distance. His interlocutor retorted "pah, what does a tree know?".

In the last anecdote as you describe, Eliezer calls out to God to back him up, and indeed God booms forth, but Joshua replies, "it [the Jewish law] is not in heaven". That is, human law is for humans to interpret, not God. It amounts to an effective way to protect the system from wholesale change by new prophets who claim to be conveying the word of God.

All cribbed from David Friedman's _Legal Systems Very Different From Ours_, an absolutely fascinating book which I strongly recommend.
It wasn't an EV certificate, just ordinary code signing. I guess you were just lucky.
Yeah - it is a good point about people reacting differently.

My sister had Hashimoto and she did diet and now her hormones are OK without any supplementation. She did it a few years ago - and every doctor she consulted (here in Poland) did not believe that a diet can do that. But I trust her and she did a regular checkups of thyroid hormones and and something that showed the immune reaction to track the progress and check what foods are good. I think now doctors are more open towards diets - but still I think no one would believe in a complete remission.

On the other hand you can find many similar first hand stories about every health condition with such weird beliefs.

It is a fascinating subject - and also a very high impact one:

If you get a more efficient PSU, miners' energy bill will be lower, which means the hash rate will go up by the same amount because the profit is not affected by mining efficiency (transaction fees plus block reward) whereas the costs (hardware plus energy) just went down. It would do nothing towards improving the environmental situation.

The only way to get miners to stop buying hardware or stop spending energy on this, is to lower the reward, i.e. if we decrease the value of a Bitcoin (stop putting more money into it) or collectively decide that maybe PoW isn't such a good idea in the middle of a climate crisis and try to bundle (do fewer) transactions or even stop using this system altogether. We can also try increasing energy taxes to the equivalent of climate impact (something approaching the cost of atmospheric carbon capture, on the order of €1 per kg of CO2e[1], because that's what it takes to undo what they caused), but that would just push miners to use up the cheaper renewable energy and crowd out everyone else and also impact people that use energy as a modern life necessity rather than for fun and profit.

I didn't just mean free options. There are still many other acceptably-priced and acceptably-licensed graphics programs besides PhotoShop. These may still be more acceptable than buying into the PhotoShop ecosystem. With 3D software, it's not so simple.
It's the APL/J/K/Fortran model. It fits modern CPU and memory architectures, it fits GPUs, and slow external storage.

And rather surprisingly, it always has, even when memory latency was 1 cycle and there was no prefetch (for which you have to go back to the late 70s). The first APL implementation is from 1962 or so, first Fortran is 1955 or so.

R and Numpy use it to deliver their speed while still providing high level semantics.
Is this whole article just an advertisement for Transphorm?
Even LineageOS hardcodes calls to Google servers (location, network portal detection). To get around that you can install LineageOS with MicroG, or use a true Linux phone.
I am not sure where you are getting your information from, I assure you it’s far from the correct.

I suggest a visit to https://immi.homeaffairs.gov.au/visas/getting-a-visa/visa-fi... and do some research in to visa options from the source of truth not a tabloid newspaper and read the requirements, processing times and the money involved.
Sorry I don't understand how the first one is wrong?

AFAIK it uses two iterations of SHA-256 to generate the hash.

ie. A cryptographic hashing function designed to be computationally expensive/infeasible to reverse.
You won't find any good builing workers at that price though. You're talking Switzerland, most of the construction work in Switzerland is foreign Portuguese workers. So the price in Portugal has to adjust slightly towards to Swiss prices if they want to hire any good people. Europe!
I hope you are joking. I have Fedora 34 with Gnome 40 right now on my gaming PC as a second system and I can barely find two windows (not even apps, just two windows) that can be defined as "nicely done". Everything else is terrible. Even worse once you start looking for apps on he net. Everything that is not Electron-base is simply ugly, constructed without any thought about UX.
Ignoring Docker updates is a paid feature now?
Pinball machines are an excellent example of this. They consist of numerous electro-mechanical components that are prone to failures due to repeatedly being hit by a heavy steel ball at high speed. If one of the component breaks, it might take a while for a service technician to get out to some remote bar. To make sure that the machine can continue to collect coins, it modifies its rule-set avoiding broken components. It will also display a little dot in one of the corners of the display to signal that it is in need of repair.
So how do you feel, when you don't smoke for a day?
I have also gotten into this habit, but I'm still on the fence about whether it is a net positive change…

Pros: Among various types of breaks one can take while WFH, showers feel particularly restorative. They also sometimes end up being surprisingly productive—diffuse thinking modes, shower thoughts, etc.

Cons: The "when" of showering was previously an automatic outcome, but now it is a conscious decision/obligation. I also find (as many people do) that showers give momentum to my morning, which is arguably more useful when just waking up than mid-day (although YMMV here).
The Fedora docs[0] say:

Struct of arrays layouts does put you in a good position to apply vectorization techniques though. The article is rather more about columnar vs row formats for program entities than it is about locality generally. Columnar databases often use vectorized evaluation strategies because it's low-hanging fruit.

This is a part of a counter-campaign running against Sputnik V: after Hungarian government released data on their own trials:

"Sputnik V has the best safety (7-32 times fewer deaths cases) and efficacy (2-7 times fewer COVID infections) per 100,000 vaccinated, it noted. Sputnik V demonstrates the best safety profile among other jabs in Hungary. The Hungarian data shows that Sputnik V has 20-32 times fewer death cases, 2-6 times fewer COVID-19 infection cases per 100,000 vaccinations than mRNA vaccines used in Hungary."

[1] Sputnik Campaign Fails to Launch in Hungary
https://www.wsj.com/articles/sputnik-campaign-fails-to-launc...

The entire thing is quite amusing if you read Hungarian, the government is releasing data showing efficacy and the press releasing anecdata about failures.

If you don't read Hungarian, it is also amusing to read about accusations from the Wall Street Journal article: "both China and Russia had active campaigns to sow mistrust in Western vaccines and promote their own.". The quote is literally from the WSJ article that promotes Pfizer/Moderna and sows mistrust in Sputnik and SinoPharm.
I am in the real money gaming space and gambling apps have a ratings ceiling of 3 stars in my experience.
The only reason why Bitcoin energy usage is so high is because the difficulty is automatically adjusted so that the average time between blocks is approximately 10 minutes. Any attempts to improve the energy efficiency, rather than reduce total power consumption, will likely just make Bitcoin mining cheaper and bring more miners online.

The only practical thing that would reduce the environmental impact of Bitcoin would be a drop in the price of bitcoin. I keep thinking this thing is on its last legs but it keeps going like a bad dream driven only by speculative frenzy.

For the record, I'm not against the concept of a decentralized cryptocurrency but most popular cryptocurrencies are very badly suited to actually being currencies and in the meantime just serve to warm the planet.
Is it possible for the developer to just make detached signatures of compiled/assembled pieces of the app bundle, include it in the bundle, and then at runtime self-check and tell the user if the app is unmodified?
Thank you! I had noticed the same problem, but was not aware of this excellent solution. I just applied it, and it works perfectly... and I removed the dozens of Haskell libraries that were there just for Pandoc.

For anyone else interested, the same solution applies to shellcheck - just install shellcheck-bin from AUR.
The articles about the issue clearly state that the list in question contained examples that mocked Asian and African names, so your comment is moot in this context.

I can't be 100% sure, of course, however both Purism and Pine64 phones are slowly but steadily getting better every month. I can only imagine that Nokia could have allocated a lot more resources on making their Linux phone.
The ongoing discussion if mining cryptocurrency is a better "waste of energy" in comparison to watching Netflix or mining gold is repetitive and cumbersome. Just make sure energy costs include negative externalities (e.g. CO2) and the market will do the rest.

I feel that patchelf[0] is an ingenious little tool for exactly that purpose that isn't getting enough love. Not as useful for FOSS stuff, but it's been really useful for the times I had to relink proprietary things on our cluster in order to patch a security vulnerability or two.

I think part of the problem is also that it's sometimes more difficult to implement a nice and usable design. Instead, it may be easier to write code that does everything it needs to, but forces the user to jump through hoops to get what they want.

Sometimes making software more user-friendly may even cause the code to get more "ugly", because instead of a nice and elegant piece of software that only solves the core problem, you now have to deal with all the weirdnesses of how people perceive the problem as well. Taking away complexity on the user's side almost always adds complexity to the code. And if you're the developer, it's very easy to think that the tool you created is perfectly usable, because you understand everything about the mental model that went into it.
Creating humans so weak that they instantly fall sick as soon as they leave sterilized environments (or are getting mouth-to-mouth when needed).

We need good functioning immune systems. We also need close human contact. We need to shake hands with strangers. If we don't do that we will estrange from each other and conflict will ensue.

We should treat our immune systems like we should treat our children: train them to withstand the outer world, not keep it away.
Without Google, Android would never have gotten off the ground.

Imagine an alternate history where Google bought QNX instead of Android Inc. back in 2005, do you think Android would still dominate the Mobile OS market today, or do you think Google QNX would be the dominant mobile OS.
