There’s objective collective punishment of Palestinians. That’s a simple fact. I don’t see “this is political” dismissal when people post about other controversial topics, such as Uyghurs and China.

Seems more like Israel is believed to be above criticism and there are active campaigns to silence that criticism.
Was this for Cygnus? I know Apple was talking a lot of crap about PIN for the Workgroup Servers (at least what became the 9150, anyway). Did the PowerPC version ever boot on any Power Macs?
UFO reports have turned out to be planes multiple times in the past. One of the problems that often arises is that humans are not very good at judging how far away things are when that thing is quite a ways away from them. Which leads to them looking at registered flights in the area they think the object is in, and not finding a registered flight, because they're looking at the wrong spot.

Frequently these take place around military test/training sites though, which may quite likely have things in flight which are not on pre-registered paths or transmitting location data while in flight, because it's classified even above the need-to-know of just your standard radar technicians or fighter pilots. On top of that, human error is a possibility and things can be lost track of or end up in places not originally intended.

The report released today leaves the door open to all of this, so people asserting that the DoD has conclusively said that the objects reported to the UAP task force exhibit movements impossible to explain by known human technology are simply mistaken.

>>Third, I wish I had been a better partner to some people I dated. I'm good in a lot of ways: I don't lie, cheat, call names, etc. But I'm stingy with my time. I've always been a loner, and it takes a lot of effort for me to act differently. But I believe it could have been worth it.

What experiences made you think that being stingy with your time was a bad thing? There's no assurance that more time spent for the sake of your relationships(s) would, on its own, have prolonged or made your any relationships better (i.e sunken cost fallacy).
It's possible that having invested effort into integrating with these old control panels, the hardware manufacturer wants to keep reusing that code, and is willing up recompile for 64-bit to do so, rather than throw it all away and start over.
I never leave the trace cache. FEEB.
My favorite is a video cutter software that has two four-sectioned inputs for start/end times, like hh:mm:ss.ttt. You enter e.g. 00:17:44.500 into “start”, deleting minutes section with DEL, because it’s full with zeroes. And then you can’t enter 17 into end-minutes field, because video length is 21:30 and 17:30 is less than 17:44.500, which is bad. You have to first del-fix end-seconds and then go back to minutes. But wait, you want to cut to 17:50, but 21:50 is more than the video length (21:30), so as you type 50 it makes it into obvious 05! You have to del-fix minutes to 20, del-fix seconds to 50 (now you’re half-good), go back to minutes and del-fix these to 17. Milliseconds are no-brainer from there, don’t worry (but do not forget to unfocus the input, because otherwise it doesn’t apply). Sadly it still cuts along nearest keyframes only, but hey, at least it works.

If you think that I’m just kidding, it’s Gihosoft Video Cutter, one of 10 best video cutters out there.

Netware and its history is something I'd love to hear more about. I got into IT support in 1995-96 and saw a fair amount of Netware 3.12 and later 4.11 but chose a Microsoft-centric path for my "day job" and a Linux-centric path for my personal computing. Netware seemed interesting but much harder to find low-level details about. NDS was interesting, but the promoted advantages over NT 3.51/4.0 domains weren't an issue in the size of NT deployments I worked on.

I'd certainly never heard of this processor-independent Netware effort. Its history sounds intriguing.
I think the Alpha port may have been more significant because it required making Linux work on SMP systems with a very weak memory ordering model, in contrast to x86's strong ordering. I'm not aware of any SMP 68k systems, but that was definitely an important part of the Alpha ecosystem.
I've only been noticing it the last few months. My one theory is it's right wing media trying to say "your government is hiding something from you and lying about aliens!" and then to extrapolate that (without saying so) to "what else is it hiding and lying about, e.g. the 'truth' about Covid?".

But this theory falls apart when Obama has even talked about the UFOs, but maybe he also noticed the rising interest and just innocently quipped that "we don't know exactly what's out there" to mean "we don't know which country's tech these things are."

The post is about technology, but obviously you don’t agree with the subject matter, as evident by your dismissal of it as being “woke liberal”.

That’s a pretty hypocritical statement.
> "Evidence shows that companies who fail to reward or acknowledge their employees for hard work, impose unreasonable demands on workers, and do not give them autonomy, are placing their staff at a much greater risk of depression," says Dr Zadow.

As someone with pre-existing depression and anxiety problems, this is exactly the situation I'm in.

The devious thing is that these mental health issues also trap you in your job. I am afraid of interviews, I feel inadequate with my skill set, I worry about having to adjust to new people, I worry about my actual ability to work due to brainfog and anxiety blocking my thoughts.

So I feel like getting paid less and having a bad work environment is just the price I have to pay for not being competitive compared to all the young leetcode specialists who are able to show a very motivated and engaged surface.

I'm starting to wonder to what degree my boss is actually aware of all this and is reinforcing my fear intentionally in order to keep me from asking for higher raises or working less.

I like C# as a language. It's boring and gets the job done. But I will say I was disappointed after trying to set up a C# development environment on Linux after having such a positive experience with the language on Windows. It sounded like it was a reasonable thing to expect to work since apparently Microsoft supports Linux these days, but I couldn't see it through. When the official editor (MonoDevelop) is abandoned for a proprietary version with no notice on the homepage or docs, and all that people recommend you instead is to "just install Ryder", which costs a large sum, it's hard to not just want to go back to a language that has a more open ecosystem.
I would say ill fitting is definitely wrong.
Here's my problem - I know there are lots of people having the time of their lives like the people OP is seeing on Tinder, except they also better at programming and doing math than me because they just seem inherently better. Basically everyone at Stanford and MIT is having fun and still making more than me - it feels like all of my hard work has been for nothing, and that at 25 I'll never even have a fraction of the life experience even 19 year olds in college have.
How do you search when the search terms has been dominated by a site?
Currently I am trying to find a website template. And the results seem to be totally dominated by themeforest and its affiliates. I do not like the templates on themeforest so I am looking for an alternative. But google is not helping.

Even if I exclude the themeforest site, its affiliates flood the search results.

How do you all find information in such a case?
It was for me.

I think this is valid, but objectively there are so many people who do this and everything else orders of magnitude better. This is what makes me sad, personally. And "just going to the gym", imho, isn't terribly useful advice - I think even CICO isn't realistic for a lot of people. I try starving myself often but I never have the willpower :(

No. You can configure the kernel run with a different scheduling policy and pretty much prevent preemption. You can even move IO interrupt handlers to other cores to really ensure you have the core.

> Here, a crowd gathers without social distancing in May 2020.

Something >90% of COVID transmission happens in indoor settings. They're all wearing masks. I think it is unreasonable to describe that as an "actively harmful" social norm, there are already a lot of controls here against coronavirus spread.

In May 2020 it was totally unclear that we were about to, having never developed a vaccine for coronaviruses in humans before, rush out vaccines at a speed that leaves prior records in the dust.

There are enormous benefits to forming strong social bonds. It is night and day. I think whoever captioned that picture is over-weighting the risks of disease against the other risks we face in life.

If you actually read the scientific American article cited, you can see that the title is click baiting.

The only direct statement for the point of the title:

"""

Some Western researchers suggest that there is a hint of nationalism in Chinese palaeontologists' support for continuity. “The Chinese — they do not accept the idea that H. sapiens evolved in Africa,” says one researcher. “They want everything to come from China.”

Chinese researchers reject such allegations. “This has nothing to do with nationalism,” says Wu. It's all about the evidence — the transitional fossils and archaeological artefacts, he says. “Everything points to continuous evolution in China from H. erectus to modern human.”

"""

And the rest of the article enumerates many evidences that prove the evidences uncovered in China and many other Asian countries pose a lot of questions of the established theory.

I don't think it's fair to put nationalism at the center of the discussion.

Edit: I would not expected down voting on this comment if this was in before 2016 (just rough impression). Now I fully prepared to it. The lack of inter exchange is killing the vitality of this forum. Hope this idea becomes more evident here. After all, there are so many pther places to not engage in serious discussion, this forum is most valuable when it predominantly values facts.
It shows screenshots of people calling the actions of Israel apartheid. I am not taking anything seriously that calls Israel an "apartheid state". You don't know what apartheid is.

Arabic Muslims and non-Muslims alike has more rights and power in Israel than all other Arab states combined.

People are free to choose leaders via election. Did you know that one of parties in the current Israeli ruling coalition is an Arab Nationalist party?

Women and LGBTQ+ have more rights in Israel than anywhere else in the Arab region.

And people always forget that Hamas regularly uses innocent people as human-shields. When they die, whose fault is it?

Hamas solidified its power by killing intellectuals, police, military personnel, and reporters. Now if you try and protect your citizens from them, are you an apartheid state?

Israel withdrew from Gaza strip after the election. If they were actual colonialists, they would have remained. Then we would not see all this.

Israel wants a two-state solution. Palestine wants nothing but "death-to-Israel". I am not talking about Hamas only. It is also the stance of the moderate faction of the elected leaders in West Bank.

The matter is always nuanced. I am more leaning towards Israel because Hamas launches rockets from school areas, and areas with hospital.

And Hamas and other terrorist sympathizers are masters of propaganda.

Israel is not an apartheid state. Not even close. I know people who lived in Israel. It is a culturally diverse, tolerant land, with an elected government.

I will be leaning towards Palestine if the elected government on West Bank ruled over Gaza and Israel still did the things it is doing.

Protecting your citizens from Islamic terrorists is not being an apartheid state.

You should always remember-

Just because some people are the underdogs, does not mean they are the good guys.

There was some poor site owner seeking assistance on the Let's Encrypt community site because (of course) even though they swear they haven't changed anything now mysteriously Let's Encrypt stopped working and so it must be a bug in Let's Encrypt.

They're using http-01, so the magic files need to be exposed from a /.well-known/ directory and others have got them to try a test file named "test". When you ask for the test file though, what you get is a 30x redirect to some unrelated blog post.

Well, it looks unrelated at first, and then what I realise is, that post is about Testimonials. Sure enough when I ask for a file named 'chris' instead I get redirected to a blog post about Christmas...

I don't think that user ever figured out what their problem actually was, it's a little frustrating but you have to let them go do their thing.
I'm sure that in 1986, before standardizing ANSI C, someone victoriously typed the same thing in front of his tty in a discussion about using types in declarations and not just doing it à la K&R with just the function name being called cowboy-style.

Just because a system does not catches all bugs does not make it useless - for me, even if C++'s type system had caught only one bug it'd be worth it (and in most of my code, which is mainly about fairly specific domain objects, the compiler saves me from myself pretty much daily).

In any case, I'd likely have this somewhere

constexpr double negate(double x) {
return -x;
}

// example implementation for the sake of the comment, there are much more exhaustive libs out there
constexpr bool sample(auto func) {
bool ok = true;
double x = -1000.;
while(x < 1000.)
{
ok &= func(x);
x += 1.;
}
return ok;
}

static_assert(sample([] (double x) { return negate(x) == -x; }));

this way I'd get a compile error if my cat walks on my keyboard and inadvertently removes the - (also a relatively common occurence)
There is a 60 minutes piece about this a few weeks back which are interesting to watch. I think its mostly they want to figure out what we are up against since it seems to be happening on a regular basis.
This is interesting and potentially has value. To the end of deriving public value, is there source code or (non-)business logic that can provide an explanation to the choices made in developing this form?

Alternatively, and pessimistically, is this simply a successful marketing endeavour by a digital agency?
Claiming outdated connotations would just be another way for some archaeologists and anthropologists to attempt to desperately run away from the fact that there were very few cities in North America.

When people have a non-science-based agenda and a fact of history doesn't fit that agenda, they start attempting to label inconvenient facts away, for example by pretending they're "outdated."

And they'll always use threatening mob tactics, like argument from intimidation, by claiming that some N number supports their position, so thus it is that a fact no longer matters, because the mob said so. It's a very old collectivist premise, they're always so wildly irrational they believe that if you just get large enough numbers in your mob you can subjectively alter the facts of reality, and will your preferred subjectivism to be true instead. And if you go against that mob, they'll isolate you from the field, get you cancelled, and make sure you can never challenge them again with your nasty facts.
A lot of people saying maximize wealth early. I did not do that. After university I worked a lot of low(ish) paid jobs and lived cheaply to save money to travel.I traveled and worked around the world for 3 years with my girlfriend (now wife). When we came home we were very much behind many of our friends who had started careers right out of university, but 20 years later there is very little difference in where we are. And in some respects we are better off. Once you start on your career there is little opportunity to take a long break and once you are married and having kids there is no opportunity. My brother took a break and travelled without working, but that was for only 4 months. A very different experience and was more of an extended holiday than anything else. The next time the opportunity to travel arises is post kids and probably in retirement if you are lucky. So you might start your career earlier but you Will never have the freedom and opportunities that you have as a young man/woman. You can sell your time for money but you can't buy it back.

One thing I agree with about others is exercise, just do it, make it routine. It will pay you back tenfold in years to come
Because it never was about "saving climate" it was only for a way to big corp deduct taxes and then tax YOU to pay the bill.

Strange that our "carbon free" companies are getting crazy about coming back and even more crazy now because nobody wants to go back to the cage.

Sorry but no.

I want to live where I want to live and I will work same or more efficient than I did before WFH.
