> If this is true, why did you decide to go with traditional vim rather than NeoVim?

Answered here [1].

> I personally find Lua far more intuitive than Vimscript...

One of the biggest motivating factors for the rewrite of Oni was the limitations imposed by Vim/Neovim of a terminal grid of characters in the rendering layer: “Neovim treats the visible screen as a grid of cells” [2]. This precluded implementing CodeLens amongst other things [3].

I’m also a fan of Lua — I’ve written a substantial amount of Fennel — but given Oni’s goals, revamping Vim’s rendering layer is of higher importance than Lua support, particularly since the VSCode extension ecosystem is being relied upon anyway. Onivim is designed as more of a direct challenge to heavyweight IDEs than as a substitute for Vim. I already switch between Vim and VSCode depending on requirements, but it’d be great to have the best possible support for modal editing in VSCode.

Why not call your favorite wine "jar of horse piss"? Wont it sell equally well on its merit?

Because that is what the "feta-like" phrasing is doing in consumer's minds. Put the same feta side by side, where one is labeled "DOCG greek feta" or whatever, and the other is called "feta-like cheese", and the greek feta will outsell the other 100% of the time.

I'm a wasm neophyte -- even the set up seems complex to me. Do you have any recommendations for where to dive in?
I feel like a good chunk of that is market politics: Valve has an interest in Linux support so they can (re-)build something like SteamOS. And they want that ability so that Microsoft doesn't get too stupid ideas of forcing restrictions on Windows gaming/tying it to the Windows Store/... But the obvious option of that is enough, they didn't need to fully push the SteamOS/SteamBox concept after it fizzled out, the fact that they could is cheaper and serves the purpose.
I'm pretty sure that is because of DRM, right? It's not that you _cant_ do it, but they _wont_ allow you. Ofc, there are otherr ways to achieve your goal.

Ditto. I had a 2600k until about a month ago, where my motherboard died and everyone on eBay was asking $100+ for a replacement.

Ended up buying a whole Ryzen gaming rig and selling off the parts I didn't want. Out of pocket costs were actually negative when once the old PC's parts were gone.

> I guess feta is a good example of the problem of defining these things by region not process. I feel pretty confident that "feta" shouldn't belong to any one country in the region with a tradition of making it; on the other hand differentiating it from cheap knock offs also makes sense to me.

The PDO for feta protects a cheese made in Greece that's traditionally called feta. Other countries around the Mediterrannean and in Eastern Europe make similar (but not identical) cheeses but they call it by different names, for example Sirene in Romania (which is made with cow's milk rather than sheep and goat's milk as in Greece).

I don't think it makes sense to mix up the protection for feta with protections for sirene, for example. Sirene should be protected by a PDO specific to its own make, ingredients and characteristics.

Just because lots of cheeses around the area look similar to feta, doesn't mean we can just lump them all together with feta. Otherwise, why not lump Roquefort together with Gorgonzola and Stilton? They're all blue cheeses made in Europe, after all.
given the origin of the web at cern, it's actually surprising that it didn't include LaTeX from day 1.
But "Florida Orange Juice" is a trademark of the Florida Department of Citrus. This is a state agency tasked with promoting Florida's members of the citrus industry.

They created and registered the trademark. Before they started using it, the mark did not exist. They funded ad campaigns to spread the trademark, and they license it at no cost to Florida producers of citrus products.

The difference between trademark protection and a PDO is that the PDO seeks to unwind the historical dispersion of language and culture, purportedly for consumer benefit (and certainly there is some benefit) but -- let's be honest -- this is clearly economic protectionism.

Edit: "Florida Orange Juice" is also clearly economic protectionism! Californian (and Brazilian) growers are disadvantaged by the active and ongoing efforts of the FL Dept of Citrus.

But they have a trademark. My objection to PDOs is that they're often re-fighting battles that were lost hundreds of years ago. Historical revisionism promulgated by economically self-interested groups, backed by governments, with the goal of global enforcement, and sold as consumer protection ... is silly when it fails, and abhorrent when it succeeds. IMO!
I disagree. I learned the structure of TCP frame in college and that's the last time I've looked at one. 99% of my job is at layer 7. Understanding bits like TLS handshake and http headers is plenty.

Both of those statements are false. HN is neither by, nor for, an SV audience, and you can easily tell that by the many critical perspectives that appear here on every topic associated with SV.

Not really, or at-least as far as I'm aware.

With Vista, they wanted to deprecate GDI and introduce WDDM with a desktop compositor so display and memory requirements were quite intensive for the day. No such major change with 11 AFAIK. The low-end hardware still runs just as smooth. As I said originally, it is more related to the unwillingness of IHVs to support hardware for as long as Windows does.
I agree with random3455699 on this one.

This has happened again and again throughout history. Where a movement caused a system change. For instance, Carnation Revolution which led to Portugal being a democratic country.

And this is already happening on the stock market, where the system is being re-considered due to the nature of shorting. As Elon Musk put it "u can't sell houses u don't own u can't sell cars u don't own but u can sell stock u don't own!?"

If retail traders start buying a stock just due to it being low float and heavily shorted, the system will have to adapt... There's not much a Hedge Fund can do, when you talk about millions of retards buying shares because "they like the stock".
The measurements are of system firmware and bootloader stages + configuration. If you change any of those...

Then, in the case of full drive encryption, you'll be asked for the BitLocker recovery key at bootup.

If you used Windows Hello for authentication, that option wouldn't be available - making you have to use your password instead to login.
Not comparable. You are making some bold assumptions that people in the comments are using Cuba’s successful healthcare system as an excuse to justify the communist regime in Cuba. I see no such things. I see people simply pointing out that Cuba has a successful healthcare system irrelevant of the fact of how their government runs their country.

The parable of Mussolini and the trains running on time was however such justification. I.e. “Mussolini’s fascist regime can be excused by the fact that he got the trains running on time”. Some people might be of the opinion that “Cuba’s authoritarian government can be excused by the fact that their healthcare system is successful“, but that is not the sentiment I’m getting from the posts here. Particularly not from your GP.
Last I checked, about 50% of HN readers were in the US, and of course many of those come from other countries originally.
Not really. You can run makepkg --syncdeps on the ABS PKGBUILD to download all build dependencies for a package, but it won't happen for a normal pacman --sync.

This is ultimately pretty similar to other distros. On Debian derivatives you'd run apt-get build-dep to install all dependencies, and on Nix(OS) you'd run nix-shell --attr to get a shell with the build dependencies available.
Which project keeps open bugs which have been fixed already? It's not the wine devs jobs to get it in to your distro package manager.

Pretty good article with some actual info on the lab.

>From her first visit before it formally opened in 2018, Anderson was impressed with the institute’s maximum biocontainment lab. The concrete, bunker-style building has the highest biosafety designation, and requires air, water and waste to be filtered and sterilized before it leaves the facility.

I guess I would say this is less compelling to me than perhaps the scientists/author makes it sound. If there was an accident - it doesn't really matter if everything is sterilized before it leaves. The most plausible scenario was that a person in the lab breathed in material from the virus in which case there would be no way to stop it spreading without quarantining that person.

I sorta get the sense that the rules around this type of lab (not just Wuhan but everywhere) suffer from the same type of security theatre as grocery stores wiping down checkout registers. They can't really do anything to prevent human to human transmission (unless they were secluded on an island or something, which they won't do) so instead they go all out on ventilation and sterilization that don't really effect how (most) viruses spread.
the only costs that count are the lost profits and jobs in unsustainable industries, the only fairness is that those who don’t want to change shouldn’t have to. The deserving are coal miners, not construction workers sent home during heat waves; gas station owners, but not shellfish farmers; auto dealership and gas stove manufacturers, but not the mountain towns whose whole economies depend on skiers showing up in the winter, staring at bare rock and warm days in December.

This was interesting framing of job losses. I wonder if there is analysis of the short term economic loses of these changing weather patterns.
Tether is associated with the Bitfinex exchange, not Binance.

Worth noting that Canada already considers hate speech a crime.

For example (from wiki), the two most relevant existing laws would be:

> Section 319(1): Publicly inciting hatred—makes it an offence to communicate statements in a public place which incite hatred against an identifiable group, where it is likely to lead to a breach of the peace. The Crown prosecutor can proceed either by indictment or by summary process. The maximum penalty is imprisonment of not more than two years. There is no minimum punishment.[15]

> Section 319(2): Promoting hatred—makes it an offence to wilfully promote hatred against any identifiable group, by making statements (other than in private conversation). The Crown prosecutor can proceed either by indictment or by summary process. The maximum penalty is imprisonment of not more than two years.[15]

What the planned legislation does is take the current working definition of hate speech (as set by Canada's Supreme Court) and put it into law, as well as (effectively) defining the relationship between online speech, and the public/private statements in the existing law.
> A member of the public, who wishes to remain anonymous, contacted the BBC when he realised the sensitive nature of the contents.

Nothing suspicious about that at all!

I have absolutely no idea about biology, vaccines and stuff, but don't vaccines need like a shitload of testing? That was the reason the Russian vaccine wasn't accepted by the European Union for quite some time AFAIK. Now Cuba has a vaccine and is already giving it to their citizens. Are they guinnea pigs?

Latin America being Latin America, if the Cuban vaccine works, other Latin American countries will most likely import it or manufacture it locally and apply it to their citizens, disregarding if it's properly tested or not. Because politics.

Argentina is trying to mix second doses because it ran out of Sputnik (while there are some studies about mixing some vaccines, the government wants to mix two non-tested vaccines). And being the totalitarian government than it is, they will probably end up mixing it.

I grew up swearing off frozen vegetables as a bad thing - saw ads on TV and assumed it was something poor (?!) and time-poor people would buy. We'd grow fresh or buy whole, but almost never had frozen vegetables. Then my brother went through an intensive athletic program that had a nutritionist - that guy put him onto frozen and he passed it on to me. Fresh, there is a risk you'll let it go to crap before using it, you're paying for bits you'll trim off, etc. Frozen, it's there for months as you need it, ready to go, and was snap frozen fresh. So, odds are, there's less waste and less effort. We still grow and buy as before, but I try to have some frozen staples around, especially for quick stir-fries, fried rice for the kids, etc.
Plenty of alternatives though if it gets too expensive - brick, block, steel + stucco, etc.

Lumber is important, and it’s cheap - but there is a cap until there are ready and economical alternatives.

So everyone who holds any restrictive position on speech, incompatible with your own is uncivilized and philosophically unsophisticated, as in the rest of the world? Civilizations thousands of years old are... uncivilized?

See this is the supreme irony. You've turned freedom of speech into dogmatic faith. Ironically enough, no discourse is so dogmatic and blind and unable to question its own values as the American one. You can question everything, just not your own values on speech. It's all just platitudes about authoritarianism and slippery slopes and ironically enough unoriginal, replicated talking points.

Hey friend - Good on you for quitting all that stuff. Thats just impressive.

I have 2 book recommendations for you. One is The Culture Series if you haven't run into it. Some of my favorite scifi. I used to be the same way where I would read almost entirely nonfiction and started reading a bunch of scifi. I'm actually more likely to read fiction in general now.

The other one is a book called "Feeling Great" by Dr. David Burns. It talks about some of the newer techniques he has developed. You may find the book itself to be helpful, or while reading it you might find it interesting to try to find a therapist who is using the TEAM-CBT technique he talks about in the book. There is also the Feeling Good podcast. I've only listened to a little bit of that so I can't recommend it or not.

In any case. I'm sorry you're feeling that way. Remember that just because you feel this way now, doesn't mean that you'll always feel this way. Life has a lot of seasons.
ah yes exactly!
I'd recommend reading at least the the abstract of the paper linked therein, rather than the popsci summary. The authors are arguing that H. Erectus in particular was highly carnivorous (though not exclusively). That's about 1M years, not plural, and it's ignoring all the Australopithecines and H. habilis besides. The authors explicitly state that middle Pleistocene archaic humans moved back the other way and incorporated far more plants into their diet. By the time anatomically modern humans arrived, we had quite significant plant intake. Besides, the GP comment doesn't make sense archaeologically. We have shell middens from H. erectus and know that many archaic humans lived in near-coastal environments. There was no period in which we were purely pursuing ruminants even when archaic humans were more carnivorous.
The think that always worries me about "hate speech" is the lack of clarity of definition.

If you said 'Kill all X' where X is any protected group you would almost certainly fall afoul of hate speech regulation. By all metrics "Kill all X" is online vilification against a group of people because of superficial characteristics. Yet for some reason "Kill all Men" is totally acceptable in online discourse.

Because of the lack of punishment, anyone against whom "Kill all X" is acceptable finds themselves opposing hate speech regulation - as for them it is useless and does nothing to protect them.

Secondly, because of the lack of consistent (and biased) enforcement of hate speech rules, everyone should be concerned about if and when hate speech against them goes from being protected to normalised.
