What’s really sad is that multi user system interrupts were long since a solved problem when Unix was developed. I don’t know why that existing body of knowledge wasn’t applied.
That's our team with Jira. It doesn't make sense to update tickets when all the work is done in Github. You basically have to duplicate work. I've been trying to push Zenhub for years.
I’m on the latest iOS beta with AirPods Pro. In Chrome the media element won’t open. When I open in Safari it takes me to the Apple Music app, which can’t play the trailer because I don’t have an account.

It’s like they’re warning me the problems with walled gardens.
That’s a lot of cases! And not counting hospitalized cases. Yes I understand why they characterized it that way, but it’s still minimizing a very large problem.
I think we definitely agree on the most of the benefits - there's a transcript at [1]. I'm happy to see more people discuss the benefits and practical uses rather than the sea of hate that systemd usually gets (especially in these parts).

From a psychological standpoint, people are more likely to keep the default as is - even if the opt-out is super simple.
I assume, unfortunately, this will grant Amazon a lot of benefits.
I'm really not into it besides my own little private open mics in the shower (80% approval rate). It was just the fact that I saw the young dudes star just before YouTube came along and since, between podcasts, or other videos, you can witness their thought process, beliefs, aging and evolution about their business. The usual I want to follow my dreams then 'i need an average quality act so to attract enough people regularlu', the struggle of renewal. Etc etc

No, but those politicians are at least able appoint reasonably competent unelected government officials.
This is wrong. There's actually biomarkers for PTSD that are detectable from a blood test. [1]

Stresses can do all sorts of things, change gene expression, trigger proteins or breakdown products, etc, etc. All of those things can produce measurable changes.

> AMD was putting higher-performing APUs in laptops half the price of the M1 Macbook Air, and they did that 18 months before the M1 even hit the market

APUs with Zen and Zen 2 cores were absolutely not outperforming the M1's Firestorm cores.

>In SPECint2006, we’re now seeing the M1 close the gap to AMD’s Zen3, beating it in several workloads now, which increasing the gap to Intel’s new Tiger Lake design as well as their top-performing desktop CPU, which the M1 now beats in the majority of workloads.

In the fp2006 workloads, we’re seeing the M1 post very large performance boosts relative to the A14, meaning that it now is able to claim the best performance out of all CPUs being compared here.

They didn't, they included Romania (Moldova), which must be what they use in Moldova.

Key phrase: "that I've seen".

Well done propaganda (framed to appear unbiased to its audience) is not even noticed as such by the reader. The effectiveness of this can be seen right here on HN in the hundreds/thousands of culture-war themed posts where people will quote newspaper articles that are written (intentionally or not) in a loose/ambiguous/leading way that facilitates significant interpretation of the words, so different readers will form different conclusions, and neither can be deemed wrong as they can all be using perfectly sound logic. When someone posts such an article as proof of their viewpoint, predictable heated arguments ensue, with both sides typically believing themselves to be right.
If I pay someone to build me a house, I have a house and they have fiat. We converted energy into a house and fiat.

If I convert the same amount of energy into crypto, I have nothing with intrinsic value.

And before you say that fiat has no intrinsic value, consider that most people have fiat debt (loans, taxes, wages, etc.) that they can pay off with it. Currently very few people have any crypto debt.

Actually all I want from "AI".
In that sense, Find My takes "a slice of your Wifi" (or even mobile data) as well.

There isn't a qualitative difference between the two in my view (there might be a quantitative one – Sidewalk's data cap is 80 kbit/s or 500 MB per month; Apple isn't publishing this data, but I'd expect it to be lower, although not limited to wi-fi and also using battery power).
I'm seeing a big different when compiling our project, with the M1 Macbook Pro beating the iMac Pro when building our projects (23min vs 38 mins).

Is it all CPU though, or is building ARM artefacts less resource intensive than bulding ones for Intel ?
Alright, yes, it uses the container, but files that are scrambled with MQA are worse quality than CD-rips. Even if no MQA decoding is involved.
I worked at a company where Monday was the main interface between the back-office and the B2B clients we serviced.

That was about as bad as you can expect.
> “For children with ADHD, as a rule, the part of the brain that is responsible for the regulation of brain activity – the reticular formation – is deficient,” said Sergey Kiselev, head of the Laboratory of Brain and Neurocognitive Development at UrFU, head of the study.

This is news to me, and I'm having trouble finding any good sources that talk about it. Anyone have any suggestions?
Going with Go: Adoption stories from around the Go community
I'm sure someone has run the battery dead using benchmarks that exercise the performance cores - I suspect that Apple designed a fast chip and an efficient chip and then married them together - that an M1Max with only performance cores wouldn't be that interesting power-budget-wise (though likely still an improvement).
That completely misses the point. The problem is that companies won't do the research to find cures -- because cures don't make money.

You can't go to India for a cure that doesn't exist.
When is Spatial Audio just going to be the default across iOS? All interface sounds and media.

Also how much of the Apple Music library is actually spatial audio? It’s not a great experience when only a subset of videos have the full experience for example
As a friend in the State Department exlained, it's because of the French and the British. Generally,"nation" is used to refer to an autonomous political unit, but "nation-state" refers specifically to a sovereign nation.

And the French and the Brits have/had a lot of "nations" which are part of their "nation" and which thus are not "nation states" of their own. For example, Scotsland (and even technically Britain itself) are both nations that are themselves part of the nation-state that is the U.K. For the French, it gets a bit more complicated, since they have a number of territories which are nominally sovereign but are legally subordinate to the French government in Paris (like Tahiti).

Just my two kilobits: I also prefer FLAC and Ogg and Opus, and after some testing I settled on 24kbps mono Opus for audiobooks and 96kbps stereo Opus for anything more than spoken. I was limited by storage on my old Android device, and my earbuds were whatever. I now have better headphones (~$60?) and speakers (~$130?) and am sometimes transported back to my teens and the wonder of listening to music in all its breadth and depth.
That's fine, but it's not fine to claim MQA is lossless or represents the original lossless file.
> Server-side web app development was somewhat limited by the lack of a mature ORM.

I assume you mean a mature ORM written in pure Kotlin with this statement. Because Kotlin interopts so well with Java, you can use any of the battle tested web frameworks like Spring (Boot) with ORM's like Hibernate. Most of these frameworks/libraries even have additional kotlin extensions to enhance the experience.

Kotlin + Spring + Postgres is my default stack to do a web/api project in 2021. Super productive environment with good configuration/cloud/di/orm support and a huge ecosystem of available libraries.
It was everywhere on the Tube in London after it rebranded from Dapulse, in the middle of the whole Brexit fiasco.

It reaffirmed something an old colleague of mine said: everyone in startup tech assumes you're politically on the left. And those ads were aimed at those people.
Funny. Did they also convince Germans to stop using the article when referring to that territory?
> Imagine being the chief compliance officer at DarkSide. People constantly come to you with crimes, and you are commercial, you are like “sure go ahead do that crime,” but occasionally you have to stop them and say “no the reputational risk of that crime is too great, we can’t do it,” and the sales reps grumble that you are getting in the way of business.

>"More than one Russian hacker was arrested when making vacation in a country that has an extradition treaty with the US."

Being an idiot has a consequences. I have no idea why did those Russian hackers ever assume that they'd be safe when traveling. They've committed crime and were stupid enough to basically ask to get arrested.
Do you have a reference on pre-1969 multi user interrupts being solved?
Also, Unix was developed on a ~16kB RAM machine IIRC... Maybe that's the reason?
But one of the selling points of fish is (from their website, I am not a user) that it has sane scripting.

That point appealed me most. If I continue have to use bash for scripting, I wonder what fish provides over zsh.
Your whole argument against this is that we don't know the exact chain of command?

It's like saying that Navalny couldn't have been poisoned by Russia because we don't know the route between Putin and the assassins.

The whole point of doing something illegal in secret is that observers can't answer these questions.

There's no point in shuffling background processes to a subset of cores if it doesn't provide power-savings.

It sounds like upcoming Intel chips will have the ability to run efficiency-mode on some cores, at which case OS-level code to do shuffling makes sense.
So many of these posts aren't specifying the exact compression format / bitrate they used for the test though. It's obviously possible to pass at some level of compression, but what I really want to know is if anyone can pass a double blind test at a high bitrate on a modern codec vs uncompressed.

The codecs obviously represent human-audible information much more efficiently than raw PCM samples. I'm not sure why the quality couldn't scale up (by increasing the bitrate) until it surpasses 100% of human hearing limits (since there's a lot of headroom to increase the bitrate and still be smaller than uncompressed). Maybe some formats have hard-coded frequency cutoffs (that don't change with the bitrate) that are too low for 1% of the population, but there's enough format choice that it would be surprising if they all had that problem.
I had a website I built using Dreamweaver in college 15 years ago. The hosting was provided by the school, everyone had a FTP server under their name that they could put files on.

The site of course was removed after I graduated, but I still had some of the articles I put on in Word form. Many years later, when I learned HTML/CSS, I'd post those old articles on the new sites I created. I believe I still have some music reviews I wrote wayy back in 2004.
What they mean, of course, is they don't want to poop in the same place they eat.

It's not geopolitics if the victim lacks the will or technical firepower to punish the offender, right? ;)
Very common in the Bay Area that spaces are mandated. Personally, I don’t like it but it’s what I see here. If you included what I normally do and at the comp I get, just one Bay Area participator could fuck up the stats real fast.
I think this warning is actually harmful: Years ago, I read this argument about fish and it turned me completely off using it.

Only more recently have I really realised this never applied to 99% of my (most people's?) use-cases.

The logical step many people miss is that shebangs make the compatibility of the user's shell largely irrelevant: the only real compatibility concerns are the bash version or `sh` aliasing on the user's system.

e.g. making bash scripts compatible with current macOS systems (outdated bash version and bsd-ish non-gnu binaries) is a far bigger pain than any compat issues fish brings.
From what I’ve read, mRNA work was already running out of steam. This just shows how bad malaria vaccine funding is.
I don't see how it's "safe to say" anything about Google's future plans in an area like this. They can and will change their mind on a whim.
The purses were on sale for on and off between August and November 2019. On AliExpress, they’ve always been around $15.

This was probably a sale to reduce inventory? I’ve been told that this kid’s show has been discontinued, so I wonder who’s still be buying this merchandise…
This reminds me of one weird trick I use to avoid getting foreign language websites served to me while traveling. I remove en-US in my OS and broswers, and replace it with en-CA, as well as the other languages I speak. A lot of websites and software will see en-US and assume it's "just a default" and then try to serve content in a language determined by your IP or geographical region. But en-CA appears to be an explicit preference, so websites will serve English content instead of defaulting to geographic language detection.
I think the idea is that you can spend the time once every few years to research a candidate, review key policy positions, etc.

Not saying its the best system but just want to point out that there is a time element. People can't spend time understanding each piece of legislation in general.
Something that I learned working on marketing related positions is that you can go a long way with lies like that (taking credit for something you didn't do) specially when you are higher up in the chain. I'd guess that most VP/C levels curriculum might be of things they have little to no participation over. Nobody who know what really happened would botter burning their bridges just to set the record straight, so these guys sail away with these types of stories. I'd say is even worse in ad agencies...
> Go works like my brain

can't really fault you on that either. features/looks etc. it really comes down to wether it matches how you think. I can make big claims about functional languages being superior for x y and z but if I'm being really honest with myself. its more about that fact that it fits how my brain already models problems.
My understanding of organized crime in general is that this is more-or-less what it looks like. Sustainable organized crime finds a niche and stays in it. It ends up like any other large, long-lived business; optimized for its niche, vulnerable to niche disruption, and conservative about branching out because of the risk of compromise to its core competencies.
Supposedly they paid it, but the provided decryption routine was so incredibly slow that they realized it was faster to restore from backup.

Not sure how that works, but is what I read.

Haven't looked at Jolie closely, but I am very well-versed in gRPC. Can someone give a quick comparison between the two or point me to a good resource that compares the advantages of Jolie over gRPC or vice-versa?
It's really a lower level protocol issue. The serial terminals upon which the "tty" model is based had no event stream outside of characters being sent or received. There are events provided by the serial port itself and delivered out-of-band though (example: modem DCD line drops, SIGHUP is generated.)
And developers will often be willing to take a grab at a new thing - and even if you're not doing web dev lots of your code likely runs on build farms anyway - the chance to play around with a workable ARM machine might be attractive.
Prerequisites to Know Before Adopting Microservices
This is basically outsourcing decision making to others.
Yes, I think the article's description of getch() as being inadequate due to a lack of debouncing is a bit weird. I would think that debouncing would be done even earlier, in the keyboard itself, since the debouncing you need is necessarily specific to the actual hardware. While USB HID keyboards are state-based (they transmit a packet listing which keys are pressed), the PS/2 protocol is event-based, and transmits "make" and "break" messages for key-press and key-release events, respectively.

(That said, I wouldn't be surprised if debouncing were done in the driver. I just think it's the wrong place for it.)
Game developers have their own meh level. It is just different from that of corporate backend developers.
Even something like

# only test if the build succeeds
./build.py && ./test.py

didn't work in fish until recently. It used to be 'and' but they recently added && for compatibility.

I think redirects and possibly pipelines work differently in fish too, although I don't remember the details. I type those on the command line frequently. I occasionally use loops as well, though when it gets big I do put it in a file.

This is probably more of a thriller-novel MacGuffin than a hypothesis, but if you compromised a few nearby cell towers to interfere with each other just so, it might be possible to create a small pocket of very intense radiation without needing any other hardware.
The article sort of implies this is geopolitical (i.e. the hackers are "attacking" certain countries). I kind of doubt that. My guess is they're just afraid (with good reason) of the Russian government.
Will M1 silicon make the jump to iPhone/iPad in the future?
Sure, and that works fine. Just let my application tell the window manager:

* What key events I care about. (I.E. what the keybind should be named in the settings UI)

* What script or message to pass back to me when that event is activated.

* What the default keycombo should be, if any.
I listened to an interesting Joe Rogan episode with David Sinclair, a doctor studying aging.

At one point, he published a paper and someone from one of the drug companies wrote a scathing rebuttal, which caused him countless problems. Because his research was called into question, he couldn't get funding, and his lab shrunk from maybe people to only a few.

So he had to do a lot of extra work to re-prove all his assertions and a couple of years were lost.

He acknowledges this at the very end of the video. I could see it potentially being used to track for anti-theft purposes while it sits on a shelf or table at say a booth during a festival or something like that. The person selling it can just deactivate the AirTag after the item is sold. Could make financial sense for higher end items.

It's been a long time since "using linux" meant you're "smart enough to..." Probably around the time corporate IT departments everywhere realized Linux on x86 was cheaper than Solaris and could still get the job done.
Had me in the first half. Well done.
No, this wasn't some misunderstanding, or even a disagreement. It was control. Those that didn't play the game were ostracized. Where possible they were set up to fail, and were generally made miserable.

Ego driven? Certainly. I don't think there was any fear of newcomers, but was more about loyalty.

Many of these people had worked together previously, and would coordinate to enforce what they wanted. Eventually they moved in mass to another company, killing our eng department. They rinsed and repeated at the new company.

I had an HR rep tell me they felt like there was little they could do, because of their culture of silence, and how profitable they were.

We just started using Mozart at Modern Treasury (S18), and have been really happy so far. We didn't want to spend a ton of time setting up data tooling, so we liked that we could use Mozart to get up and running really fast. All we've had to do is write our transforms, and things like snapshotting, scheduling, etc are taken care of for us. Pete, Dan, and team have been really responsive to our questions and good partners. At first I was a bit skeptical and we were just going to do Snowflake+Fivetran ourselves. But after talking to some of their larger customers, I was convinced that (a) it would save us time and (b) it could scale with us.
