Wikis would come and go like mushrooms and I too was burned once, so I figured Wikipedia's data will never be abandoned and so have been using mediawiki for over a decade. Even if mediawiki is one day abandoned the migration tools will be excellent.

history, syntax highlighting, inline images, tables etc. Markdown would be nice - and there's an extension which enables that, but who knows if that extension will have a lifespan/migration-path like Wikipedia will.

It would be seen as strange if you say you are a farmer but you don't have a farm that you grow food in, instead you just temporarily rent a farm from random places for short amounts of time.

Last year I was renting my farm from AppleFarms but they started charging high prices when I wanted to expand so I switched to AmazonForestServices. For migration I used the DockerShippingService from GiantGarageInc to transplant all the seeds and plants from my previous farm to the new farm. They have amazing support and their staff was very diligent in plucking all the plants carefully.

> inept worthless corrupt government

If you seriously believe the government is that bad, then fixing it should be your top priority. Above all else. You can't have a successful country if the government is corrupt. And you can't just patch and hack around its failings. That shit will eventually catch up.
i don't think that people will ever fully trust an AI lawyer, given all the possible legal consquences of a misunderstanding between the AI and the client. You could literally go to jail because of a bug/misunderstanding due to an ambiguous term (this might make a good sci-fi story ...)

But yes, getting some kind of legal opinion will probably be cheaper with an AI.

Correct me if i am wrong but those highly effective mRNA vaccines were created in a few weeks and relatively inexpensively... and can other protein targets can be repackaged easily by coding the mRNA unit into the already encapsulated delivery mechanism. is that not better than the other alternatives?
I mean various antitrust court cases and government hearings. Like recent Apple vs Epic.
Okay, that's fair. I interpreted them as a response to the original question about if the policy is enforced.
Initial setup takes some skill (installing software) but after that it's dead simple.

1. Install a media player that supports Youtube-DL; most mpv-based players (like SMPlayer/SMTube) support this.

2. Install an "open in MPV" browser addon.

3. Just dump all your music in your Music folder and open the media player in that folder.

Now you can list tracks and sort them, and you can open a Youtube/Soundcloud/etc link to stream. No need to sign up for a service, manage a username/password, etc.

Plus, you can use an SMPlayer skin that hides everything except the controls you want.

Just click a desktop shortcut then play/pause/shuffle. If you know the controls on a boom-box or remote, all you'll have to learn is sorting.
It will work out just fine. What's "better" in transportation is shaped to a large degree by government's policies, from taxes to incentives to investment in basic research and infrastructure to promises of future bans, yes.

True, the eradication of fossil fuel powered cars could have instead been achieved by means of an effective carbon tax. However, in Canada this is not politically feasible, the feds barely managed to pass a very small carbon tax that will not significantly affect demand on fossil fuel cars. Banning gas powered cars wholesale on the other hand is much more acceptable thanks to the 14 year lead time. Manufacturers are now incentivized to make their electric cars better, or risk losing business in many countries to others who do.

Leaded fuel, asbesthos, trans fats, supersonic planes, and a ton of other things were once legal, yet their replacements weren't "better" when seen through an egoistic free-market lens (asbesthos is still used in countries that didn't ban it).

That's interesting. If something wants to live up in Siberia and Canada, more power to it. I think the climate will unlock little more than mosquitoes up there to start with! Just not instinctively loving the idea of rebirthing name-species for a bit of glory rather than working against what we're generally doing to the environment. Makes for a public excuse for our actions.

My MIL has been working the last few years to remove cows from their property and reforest the hillside. The transformation is amazing - it's gone from just beaten grass and cow crap, to loads of native trees. Eventually the trees will be home to mammals and birdlife, dropped logs for lizards, etc. Long way off regrowing the century-old gum trees that really make this area special though.
I find nothing more disturbing than an invertebrate eating a vertebrate. It happens but it shouldn’t.
This will be a feature that I will be bringing to Git navigation in the future. For example, if you go to

https://public-001.gitsense.com/insights/github/repos?p=comm...

and click on the eslintrc.json file, you'll see all the versions for this file for the last year. And to quickly iterate through them, you can click on the version number on the left hand side.

In the future, I want to create a slider, among other things to make navigating history insanely easy, since blame, as this blog post points out, can result in a lot of context being left out.

In Finland and some other countries we have cheap unlimited mobile data.

However, software doesn't play ball because Apple and others assume non-wifi connections will financially ruin you (giving no option to avoid using wifi for some things!).

So what gives, what is it that is causing this dysfunctional state of affairs in (apparently) much of the world?
"Threads" is an interesting concept on which to build an incremental note taking system. I know folks who keep a CRM by emailing themselves after conversations, on a separate email thread for each person. I also know folks who use a personal Slack workspace like this, with thread support. Maybe threads are a good building block for this kind of stuff.
Not PFAS though.

It was produced for the benefit of all mankind.

And now that's whose bloodstream it can be found in.

Mainly for two reasons, it's half-life is longer than the lifespan of living things, and people spread it around like they never should have done at all.

That makes it analogous to opening Pandora's box more so than all kinds of dangerous things.

In a largish corporation (5k people) there's pretty good odds at least one or more of your co-workers has a drinking problem, or a significant weight issue, or is a thrill-seeking skydiver on the weekends. If you have healthcare through your employer, and you pay part or all of the premium, then you're already subsidizing those things.

Why this only becomes a problem when done at a state or national level, is not something I can fathom.

Go with Pop I think. They update faster and have more people actively working on it. I used elementary for a couple years and dropped it eventually cause updates were too slow and went back to Ubuntu. I'll probably go with Pop on my next reinstall (I'm in no hurry to reinstall, it's always a chore).
> Software that does more instead of less is, simply put, badly designed software. Trying to come up with an all-encompassing solution is always a sign of developer hubris and inexperience, and never a sign of good engineering. Ever. Remember sendmail, BIND, INN,

Yeah from the skarnet page above. BIND had many troubles over the years but mostly because we were all learning about secure code practices in C etc. bind was just a name server. Never heard of it reading mail. There was a lot to learn about network exploits, for sure. But attacking bind as doing too much seems disingeneous. And the whole tone reminds me of the same tone as https://suckless.org/ who cares if some browser takes a Gig of RAM or my window manager is ginormous. My laptop is hard pressed to use all the RAM it has and if systemd and the kernel is running sixty daemons but the unit files are easy to write as a here doc in cloud init, then win win win.

(Running postfix and bind on my personal cloud VMs; have run Apache, haproxy, nginx and lighttpd, as well as built in Python web servers).

> PopOS feels like an extremely pragmatic operating system as far as linux distributions go. Yes, I do want my broadcom wifi card to just work. I do want my dedicated Nvidia graphics card to actually be useful. Anyone that disagrees with those sorts of principles can of course simply install a different distribution that aligns more closely with their own personal philosophy and gives them the absolute control that they need, but for me, I just want it to work.

That seems like a kind of self-contradictory philosophy - if you care more about whether it "just works" than how much control you have, how does it make sense to want to run Linux at all?
Sure - you're stating common known facts.

Let me repeat... when you conflate my whole "information, capability, and expression all want to be free" with a ton of negative/gray-pattern stuff you're invalidating my original point in the above comments with what I see as a separate concern, ie: everything has to be built to milk money from people.

There's a simpler change than just banning: Start now, with all vehicles priced at over $150,000, and reduce that threshold by $10,000 each year.

This forces the tech to be implemented in the biggest and most profitable vehicles, before filtering down to the mass market and eventually the bargain segments.

One of the bad examples that is often brought up is iProvo municipal internet.

The city ultimately gave up and sold the infrastructure to google for $1.

Wiki.js is currently available under AGPL and that is one of the ways code that uses it can be compliant. It is not our intent to mislead. It is certainly true that other open source companies like Red Hat provide source code for their licensed products only to licensees.

Here is the section from the Wiki.js license (again, not ours):

d) Convey the object code by offering access from a designated place (gratis or for a charge), and offer equivalent access to the Corresponding Source in the same way through the same place at no further charge.

In this case, we are offering access to the object code for a charge and anyone who licenses it can have the corresponding source code at no additional charge. This is straight-up AGPL.

Wiki.js is the only product we offer with AGPL source and the only one licensed this way. Our other products are Blue Oak which is entirely permissive. We offer those products for self-installation from GitHub repos with the full source.

Maybe call it a sabbatical on your resume. You get to decide what is and isn’t a sabbatical for you. Then disclose the details if and when you trust the hiring manager.

Most of all, don’t let worry about that damage your long term mental health.
I agree in some respects. It's hard to leave Google and Facebook because their accounts are used to login to other sites and services. Also when you buy apps and switch mobile OS you don't have a right for a free copy of this app from a different store, i.e. not real ownership because your app is tethered to the store.
You are correct. "Vanilla JS" is typically compared to React/Vue as a joke. As in "React.js is 2kb but Vanilla.js is 0kb and super lightweight".

"Vanilla C" doesn't have the same context as far as I'm aware. In the same spirit I could imagine a comparison for C would be along the lines of "you could use SDL (Simple DirectMedia Library) for your indie game dev, but why bother when you could use vanilla C (code Vulkan 3D graphics API directly)".
I love when voters voices are louder than lobbyists money.

A typical counter-argument to this is that America does have high prices; but those prices attract the best doctors and innovators in the world, who offer the best healthcare and health-tech in the world.

I'm not entirely certain why this comment got flagged, but it's fair to point out that there were about 20 times the number of deaths to Covid last year (350,000 reported by the CDC) than there were in lethal traffic crashes (16,650 per caranddriver.com). It's not the worst analogy.
With vehicles such as the recently revealed electric F150, they can still have those cars to rip down the 401
Good lord, people. The above is a legitimate question. Breakthrough cases happen. This negates the argument for “preventative.”

Does it prevent deaths? Perhaps. It appears to cause deaths too. https://www.openvaers.com/covid-data

We haven’t even had a legitimate debate about whether the vaccinations created the DELTA STRAIN!

If you want to be on the side of science, you have to define shared success criteria.
I used to work at Microsoft and occasionally would email Satya the same idealistic pitch. I know they have to be more conservative , but some of us have to envision where the math can take us and shout out loud about it, and hope they steer well. When I started at MS, my first week was heckled for installing Ubuntu on my windows machine. When I left, windows was shipping with Ubuntu. What may seem impossible today can become real if enough people push the ball forward together. I even hold out hope that someday BG will see the truth and help reduce the ovarian lottery by legalizing intellectual freedom.
`git blame` is not the tool you use to see if a file changed. It’s the tool you use to view per-line changes. If you want to see historic changes you just view the log, which is unaffected by this.
Elixir does not a fantastic computational story.
That's why it has NIF's to bring in things like C or Rust to deal with the math stuff.

Languages like Go, C, Rust will always beat Elixir/Erlang in the computationally intensive benchmarks.

You would chose Elixir/Phoenix/Erlang for the concurrency and networking story.

System76 has added some improvements to the GNOME's HiDPI implementation. I'm not entirely sure what the improvements are but for example they've got a HiDPI daemon.

Anyway, last I used fractional scaling (this is GNOME built-in), I ended up giving up because it just refused to work properly. I have a ultra wide 4k screen, plus my laptop screen. I really wanted to have my laptop screen at 4k when plugged in with 2x scaling, and the ultra wide 4k with 1x scaling, but it caused more trouble than it was worth. So I eventually gave up. Fractional scaling was an experimental feature when I used it, around 12 months ago, so it could have improved.

the cm5 was stunning, but the cm2 was a fantastic result with a lot less effort and cost.
But note, all of the benchmarks I posted in my parent post(especially the first two) are concurrency workloads - not numeric. And Erlang still performed noticeably worse than other languages.

I agree that it would be a huge upheaval. Absolutely massive change to society. But I have every confidence we have a world filled with good bright people who can steer us through the transition. Step one now is just educating people that these laws are marketed dishonestly, are inequitable, and counter productive to the progress of ideas. As long as the market starts to get wind that the truth is spreading, I believe it will start to prepare for the transition.
Because not-for-profits, which have special legal and tax treatment on the theory they're doing good for society, are accountable for how they spend money in ways that for-profit companies aren't.

I also think it's hilarious that "don't overpay executives and instead spend the money on the good you're supposed to be doing" is an "extreme ethical standard". How did the Overton Window get moved all the way to the basement?
