There was recently a bug related to this on the gtk issue tracker too: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/-/issues/3714

I don't think there is going to ever be much interest in getting this fixed in GTK3, but apparently performance has improved in GTK4, which should be hardware accelerated on macOS now: https://blogs.gnome.org/chergert/2020/12/15/gtk-4-got-a-new-...

Both parties have ironically forsaken their core values on this issue of censorship.

It used to be the religious conservatives pushing for censorship of offensive speech and liberals fighting back against that.

Freedom of expression is a fundamental liberal value, but it has become politically practical for many liberals/democrats at this time to forget about that.

Almost all of the original PREEMPT_RT patchset are mainlined now, but the features are not (all) enabled by default. Low latency will always present a tradeoff with bandwidth, and Linux is used for so many different purposes that one is not clearly more important than the other.

For more than 10 years, Linux with the PREEMPT_RT patch has been capable of more-or-less hard real time, with latencies in the 10's of usecs range. That can be thwarted, however, by a variety of hardware features (SMI being the worst offender, plus devices that hog the PCI bus for too long), so you are not guaranteed this performance just by running that kernel.

I started developing a blind computing system in the late 80s based on a BBC Micro and a very early speech synthesizer.

It never went anywhere, and I'm no longer in contact with the blind friend who was helping me, but I often wonder if today's solutions such as Apple's Voiceover aren't the ideal solution.

They seem to be trying to adapt the GUI for the blind, rather than trying to build a text/voice based system from scratch, like I was doing.

Siri / HomePods and similar appliances are getting there, I suppose, but they still feel like computing accessories, rather than fully fledged computers themselves.

> Members of the government should be able to involve themselves in commerce. It is a sign of a healthy capitalist society.

It is certainly a sign of a capitalist society, but whether it is a healthy one or not is rather in dispute. Since the late-19th and early 20th Century, relatively pure capitalism has been broadly viewed as unhealthy in the places that have practiced it, generally replaced by the modern mixed economy which shares a common general shape of drift from capitalism in its various implementations, one aspect of which tends to be limitations on public officials engaging in commerce especially within the realm of their official responsibility, and Members of Congress (as well as the President) have, unlike officials of most particular agencies, an essentially universal domain of official responsibility.
Forgive my ignorance - why wouldn't, "I'm average," not be an option? For multiple questions, I found myself feeling neither more nor less than average.

I don’t think I was severely depressed at the time, and your note about “just do it” seems valid. I once called EAP (employee assistance program) to ask for help reading email. Their advice, which I now practice: break down the process into discrete steps, with self-care in between.

For example: 1. Acknowledge I want to open this email. 2. Turn away and breathe deeply for ten breaths. 3. Turn back and click. 4. Turn away and breathe, do push-ups, whatever your temporary escape is that Diane take you completely out of the process.

Cold showers help build the confidence to do things I will otherwise avoid for longer than is healthy. The act of stepping in and minimizing thought as I turn the handle means sometimes I’m already gasping before I have time to dither, and the suffocating blanket of fear has dissolved.

Bela does not expose the audio device interrupt to applications. Your code runs in the Xenomai RT kernel, which functions somewhat like a hypervisor. That means that your RT code doesn't run as part of Linux at all. It also means that you need to use Xenomai-specific techniques if you need to communicate with regular Linux application code.

You'd get more or less the same thing by writing a kernel module for Linux, which would also have to use somewhat specialized techniques for interacting with user space application code.

That's interesting. Most of the other ones sit somewhere in the 40%-60%, but this is the only one I've seen where most people pick the "good" trait over the bad to such a high degree. I guess this says something about Hacker News.

This is an interesting question. I just went out to look at two bikes I've got, both Santa Cruz, one of them a 26" Nomad from ten years ago, and the other a new Hightower 29er.

I'm pretty sure the derailleur clearance is actually lower on the old 26" bike! The geometry of the derailleur has changed, and when it's on the biggest rear sprocket, the old Nomad derailleur's center of mass is below, lower than the large sprocket. On the new 29er, the derailleur is mostly above the bottom of the largest sprocket. It seems like derailleurs have improved in order to allow the larger sprockets that single front chainrings call for.

The idler (lower pulley) on the 29" is almost certainly further from the axle than on the 26", however the larger wheel means that clearance from the ground is about identical.

I don't think I've ever hit my derailleur on either bike for lack of clearance -- even though I have caught my pedal on a rock or branch multiple times. I have hit the derailleur during a crash, but mainly because the bike was flying around and smacking into things. I'm guessing because the derailleur is behind and inside the path of a pedaling foot, it's mostly protected.
> Thanks for the compliment. I guess you must know better than Picketty (he doesn't exactly say what i said

Yes, he didn't say anything remotely like you said. It's disingenuous to cite Picketty as if he would support your position.

> has been debunked time and time again that for individuals, fleeing a country because of taxes is minimal.

Because the difference in taxation is minimal. I used to live in Panama, I've personally meet people who fled tax rates in their home country. The low taxes was also my favorite thing about living in Panama. Personal anecdotes aside, what you're proposing is drastic enough that the emigration won't be minimal, it will be a mass exodus of the wealthy - you know the people paying for 40% of the services you benefit from.

> You realize that my arguments were communist-ish? You're not gonna scare me off pointing at these countries! Obviously things went bad because the liberals virtually control the world, so these countries had to fight for everything, which breaks at some point.

I don't know where to start with that without violating site guidelines and being uncivil to your intellect. Actually are you trolling me? I have trouble believing you could be serious right now.

There's a lot of bigger reasons communism failed. Your proposal would fail for much the same reasons. This comment of yours is so ignorant of history it is mind boggling.
Also things like “better partner” are so conditional on who you partner with that a simple general better vs. worse decision seems impossible to answer in a meaningful way.

So people are insecure about dancing and sex. This all tracks.

I wonder if and how things cluster around age, income, country of residence, etc.

What I'd really be interested in is a set of tags people can click as far as "which of these do you strongly identify with?" And then just have some broad categories that are ostensibly independent such as "investing", "politics", "exercise & fitness", "video or board games", "charity/volunteering", "night clubs/partying", "theater & the arts", "sci-fi or fantasy", "religion", "travelling/siteseeing", "meditation" ...

I'd assume most to be total noise but there may be a few interesting strong correlations that could inspire further study.
If you keep taking HN threads further into ideological flamewar, we're going to have to ban you again. Would you please stop?

In case it's helpful: not all your comments do this, nor even all your comments on divisive topics. When you stick to describing your personal experience, for example, it's fine. But when you call names, denounce others, or pour snark and vitriol, those things are not fine—and you've done a ton of that on HN. That's not cool!

We probably would have re-banned you by now, except I imagine I see signs of improvement here and there. Please improve further. It's not in your interest to make this place nastier; that's guaranteed to make it less interesting, and the odds of it being interesting are the only reason for any of us to come here.

Same here. I just learned about Cmd+down today after using macOS for nearly two decades. I've always used Cmd+o (as in, "open").

But it makes sense. Especially when considering that an Application on macOS is basically a folder (e.g. right click on an app, and select "Show Package Contents"), so navigating "down" into an app would open it.

Internationalised domain names are supported: as I mentioned, the spec explicitly reminds you to do punycode.

As far as I know Urbit itself was an attempt to realize the author's neofeudalist/monarchist political ideas through technology.

You'd be welcome to email specific examples that you're worried about to hn@ycombinator.com, but based on everything I've seen, the null hypothesis has to be that your perceptions are conditioned by your own passions about said "certain entities", whatever they are. I don't mean to be dismissive (and when people ask us to look into cases they're worried about, we always do); it's just that this is by far the most consistent phenomenon I've observed on HN. Nothing else comes close.

Internet users invest far too much energy into perceptions of "asymmetric astroturfing" and other sinister manipulations. Most of what they think they're seeing is easily shown to be a figment of perceptual bias, driven by their own passions on the topic. When I say "easily shown", I mean even from the public data. People could, but generally don't bother, to check the history of the accounts they accuse. When an HN user was posting about, I don't know, Ansible in 2018, or Forth in 2014, what are the odds that they're a foreign asset or secret shill on $hot-topic of 2021? That's literally what most of this stuff amounts to.

What most needs to happen is for us all to become aware of how these psychological mechanisms function in ourselves, so we can interrupt the process by which they convert into sinister fantasies about others. This isn't unrelated to the "balance of the community at large"—it's at the heart of that question. Not seeing, or not wanting to see, the genuine variation of the community on divisive topics is what leads to sinister fantasies. The odds are overwhelming that the person against you on $hot-topic is not $evil-manipulator, they're simply someone with a different background than you, who is as sincerely persuaded as you are.

Does genuine manipulation also exist? Yes, but even answering 'yes' to that already gives a mistaken impression of the proportions. The group-psychology dynamic I'm describing is responsible for the overwhelming majority of these perceptions. That's why the site guidelines ask people not to go there in the comments, but rather to email hn@ycombinator.com if they have concerns. Then we can look at the data and see if anything objective can be found.

I hope I haven't bitten your head off! My comments on this can get tetchy because of the number of times I've had to repeat myself on this issue. At some point I'm going to compile all this into maybe a single explanation that can just be linked to.
