I checked Valve's website for an email address to let them know but it seems they have scrubbed it quite deliberately. This is not a surprise, it's something we see all the time with scale: if a 100 person company can have 100 million customers, they will happily do so and gladly take their money, but never scale up enough people to deal with this extreme staff:customer ratio. Google, FB, etc., we know they all have terrible customer service and that this is the reason. Seems with Valve it's the same.
I moved off of a standard release and onto a rolling release distro because the software I used the most was always a major release (or two) behind.

Since it's based on arch, I assume they will pull the latest software from arch, test it, and push out updates as they are verified.
Yes, I had scrolled too far before I used find. I was trying to figure out how it was lighter than my phone until I realized that it was the dock.
Real numbers do not exist: they are convenient, but there is a high risk of crossing over from reality-relevant math to nonsense because of infinite calculations.

Real numbers are of course more numerous than rational numbers, just like unicorn horns are more numerous than horse horns, but it's an entirely different question.
There's a great circle joke in here somewhere. I'm just not sure how to rotate the conversation into it.
It seems like retargeting will be substantially harmed, which is surely a non-trivial portion of Google search revenue.

It's not the same kind of skills for sure. Some cars are easy to replace the battery, but you still need to deal with high voltage procedures. I wouldn't trust myself with an e-golf, but I wouldn't mind replacing the ice engine of a Twingo with the right tooling.
120 grams is the weight of the dock. You scrolled a little too far. From the same page, "Approx. 669 grams" for the system.
FWIW, Morgan offers a similar type of service (free) as part of their yearly review with me.

I'd be interested in seeing how close/different the projections are.
Depends on the game. It used to be very performance heavy, but these days any low-mid end gaming pc can handle a decent amount of games.

Hmmm, if you open up the "House" asset form and look at the "Value Change Over Time" field within the During Ownership section is it definitely set to "Match Inflation"? I just tried to replicate your scenario, and in mine the house maintains the 200k value throughout the simulation.
I did read the article, twice. I can't figure it out. That is why I asked.

How is your response polite?
> Does this mean Python and JS meet the same definition and are as "clean and comfortable"?

Are things like message sends or activation records accessible and manipulable as objects in Python and JS?
Maybe the issue is not how it is written but what it means to those who write the words. I also believe you're right about the cause (founders and technocrats are the new clergy).
Reddit's Alexis Ohanian Compared Facebook to Marvel Villain Thanos
Before that RCT, any doctor that recommended using steroids was ridiculed and labelled as spreading medical disinformation.

It's a miracle that the Recovery RCT showed any statistical significant benefit, due to the low doses and the short durations that were used there.

After that RCT, and even a year later, health authorities are still recommending the same anaemic doses, despite evidence showing that pulsing higher doses of methylprednisolone saves lives in severe cases.

And yet what are the alternatives?
The ethical discussion certainly has its merits, but the legal discussion is very relevant for those of us who do not want to be part of the legal test case.
I guess I just don't think inflation schedule or contract support are particularly meaningful. And Doge is explicitly a meme, but all of them are implicitly a meme. People want crypto because they are bought into the viral idea of owning crypto. Unless you have a ransom to pay, nobody is buying it for its inherent utility.
this is great! i hope we get access to the underlying linux system

in a similar vein, i just finished installing ubuntu on my Switch. It's a lot of fun so i can imagine this will be even better with fancier hardware!
This is why design patents exist. If you think your design is special, get a design patent for it.

Boeing paid a lot of money over the years to use the design patent of engines in the back used on 727s. Personally, I thought the patent was ridiculous, but that's how the patent system works.
That is sort of of what I was thinking. It's not exactly right, but out of 20 launches in the first half of 2021, you have 13 Starlinks, 2 Transporter (SpaceX-brokered rideshare), 2 NASA (Crew/Commercial Resupply), 2 Commercial, and 1 Space Corps.

The second half of the year looks more NASA-Heavy, with CRS-23, Crew 3, and CRS-24, plus 2 science satellite. But that's among 17 other missions.

I guess my point is that SpaceX probably won't lose NASA, but they're not as dependent on government business as ULA is.

This is great, as somebody that's inexperience and uninterested in financial planning (but aware I can't ignore it), I really appreciate the simplicity and clear language.

I misread what you were saying in other comments about a sandbox and thought "nah, what this really needs is prefilled scenarios". Looks like you have the right idea: I'd absolutely love that, I have no idea what to fill in most of these boxes and would like some examples! That could orient your tool towards education rather than planning though
It was not awesome. Strongly do not recommend.
I mean, at its simplest, the Collatz conjecture is a type of random walk, with the sequence either exponentially growing or exponentially shrinking, basically at random. It's statistically impossible that that any random walk will continue one direction forever, and once it randomly decays to 1 you're done.

Who was told to "go to hell"? There were plenty of recounts in all of the close states. Even the recent farcical commission checking fraud in Arizona didn't find anything.

As to the "spike" in that picture, a simple Google search of "Michigan spike voting" produces plenty of resources showing how the "spike" was not fraud. And if you're so worried about the spike in Biden votes later in the process, why are you not also worried about the spike in Trump votes at Nov 3 21:00 (on the graph on the right)?

You're being downvoted because these arguments are so bad as to almost clearly be in bad faith.
How WhatsApp enables multi-device capability
I'm not familiar with those games. My personal Sega saga began in the 80s with the Master System, and ended with the Genesis and Game Gear (which I still own!), and which I credit with sparking my original interest in computing technology.

I did of course play plenty of Sega arcade games, but I didn't know until much later that they started out supplying coin-op slot machines and amusements to military bases in the 1940s and 1950s.

It seems like the company went through 3 or 4 lifespans before they entered my awareness in the 80s.
The article is attempting to follow in the satirical tradition of Jonathan Swift's "A Modest Proposal", which suggested feeding children to the poor in 18th century Ireland.
As much as I'd like to give this a go, my findings so far is that recommendations from anyone you don't fully trust already are as broken and prone to gaming as any other indicator in the job market.

As (almost) always, it's so ubiquitous that the German language even invented a word for that fact: "wegloben". Loosely translated as: praising someone away.

Why is it broken? Because while it's certainly possible that someone would recommend the best people they've ever worked with in the rare case of a sudden bankruptcy, chances are usually far, far higher that people try to recommend the weaker ones they had to let go in times of hardship to others, simply because they want to be nice and soften the blow.

Most of those surveys are more like "yeah there is a problem".

But only few were about actions. And none were "are you willing to take a pay cut to save the climate", or "do you approve banning cars in the city".

People are vocal when their money is not involved or when they don't need to take action.
> "These people, most of whom would speak only anonymously because they were not authorized to discuss internal conversations, said Facebook’s executives were more worried about fixing the perception that Facebook was amplifying harmful content than figuring out whether it actually was amplifying harmful content."

Surprisingly, a monorepo is much easier for smaller teams and individuals to work with.

As someone who has been maintaining a React and Django app solo for the past three years, two repositories or more is too much cognitive overhead to work with.

Never doing that again. Monorepo are easier for small apps.

You're right that the studies have low sample sizes, but they aren't "low-quality." They're randomized, controlled trials in peer-reviewed journals. And the consistent replication does mean something. If you have 32 RCTs showing negative or even no effect, I'd love to see them.

Dr. Pierre Kory claimed that we did observe this in Mexico [0] (skip to 59 minutes). I don't know how to cross-check what he said because I don't speak Spanish, but it's one of many data points in favor of ivermectin. I think we should let doctors make the decision to prescribe it or not, and the culture of censorship around this is insane. He also talks about India and Brazil.

The legal system is generally pretty nuanced, considering things such as intent and purpose. In this particular case, it doesn’t really matter how the new work was generated or created. I don’t really think that would be very relevant. The most important factors would be how similar the new work was to the original work, the intent, and how the new work affects the value of the original.

Your proposal is just so substantively different from Copilot that I don’t see how the arguments for Copilot would apply.
I agree that it's not just about being deluded about calories, although I perhaps overemphasized that in a few sentences. I agree that there are strong environmental (social and cultural, not chemical) factors that train/aid/abet the delusion. I thought I did write quite a bit about portion sizes, changing norms, and cultural factors, but maybe in response to others?
> Investments flow to the most productive use of the money.

Investments flow to the highest-returning investment. Sometimes that's productive (new factories, infrastructure, research), but sometimes it's pure speculation (land, gold, crypto) or an active drain on health and productivity (patent trolls, telemarketing, tobacco).
Congrats on the launch, definitely useful for me as I am resorting to standing now due to slouching.
Valve authored Proton for SteamOS - so yes it runs on SteamOS. I can separately confirm that Crysis 1 & 2 run on Proton at max settings, at 4k (:
I mean, yes, but isn't Neuromancer where the term was born?
Thank you for uncovering this edge case. To summarize, Postgres reserves a batch of 32 serial numbers from its sequence objects. Then, in the case of a crash, or the promotion of a "follower", that batch is lost.

I consider ID numbers somewhat opaque, like GUIDs but maybe not that opaque. Fretting about gaps in ID numbers can cause hair loss. This is just one of many ways gaps can happen.

It is just an artifact of "sequences", the database object in Postgres that autogenerates the "next" ID number for a column --- automatically set up if you declare a column of type "serial", but that's all a serial column is. Serial just means: make the column of type integer, and create a sequence for it, and set the column's default value to nextval(sequence).

You can mitigate gaps somewhat, like if you're testing and retesting a bunch of inserts, rolling back each time. Well, after a few tests, the next number in the sequence is far beyond the last number in the table. So you can call another sequence function, setval, to reset it. Something like:

select setval('sequence_name', (select max(id) from table));

I have room to improve on this too but I have two pieces of advice.

1) Don't do things by yourself. You're more likely to switch tasks because doing so won't leave anyone else in a lurch. Incorporate others to play parts in whatever you're doing so it's a team effort.

2) Announce your projects and a deadline for them in public, either on a blog or twitter. You wouldn't want to appear as someone who jumps from task to task if people are aware of a previously-announced project and deadline.
Valve doesn't need money. They make enough profit as it is, purely from digital goods and their revenue cut. So why give up control when you are free to do what ever you want. In the end it is extremely profitable company.

This is not always true. Fedora maintains over 100 RedHat exclusive patches for grub2 alone:

I was not talking about everything being an object. I was talking about that claim being the key to being nice and comfortable.

Many sibling comments, IMHO, miss the point of the parent and focus on the claim about python and js.

Python and js could perhaps have been completely object based. It still wouldn't make them comfortable for many.

Well, we don't fight wars for any reason other than war profiteering so it might as well be as blatant on the ground as the geopolitical calculations are.
Are you talking about the same "recent very secure elections" where the processes in place worked as intended? Those test votes were found and were taken out, specifically because there are processes in place to check and double-check and triple-check the count.

America does not keep trying to convince you that there is "substantial election fraud". It is clearly one political party and their friends at Fox News that are trying to convince you of this. Reality is the antidote to their poison.

> ... and some have decided on a posture that lets them push the drama that FB is biased against them no matter what FB's actual policy is.

"The only way to find the limits of what's possible is to push past them to the impossible." I forget who said it, but some people will push what they can get away with as far as possible, and then try to go farther. No matter where FB sets the line, they'll try to go past it, because they care about winning, not about civil discourse or reasonable standards or fairness or anything like that. (Rules are for the other side.) The fact that they can then play the martyr that FB is oppressing is a side benefit.

You have an absolute right to breath the air around you. You have the absolute right to think or feel any emotions that pass through you. You have an absolute right to express these ideas and emotions. You have the absolute right to fight to preserve your own life from immediate threat. The last two are already legislated away in some jurisdictions. We've been barreling down a slippery slope since the very start of civilization.
It's not that "stock markets don't seem to agree", it's that the revenue of social media companies doesn't agree. If this new scenario has any appreciable effect on how many users Facebook can track, it will hurt their future revenue potential, which will impact their stock price.

Is this what it has come to? Never knowing when items you supposedly own will refuse to work, due to court or corporate decisions you're not involved with?

Amazon remotely deleted copies of 1984, Peloton bricked indoor bikes unless you paid a monthly fee, and now this. A man's home is his castle, and a simple purchase should not be a standing invitation for corporations to invade and compromise the functioning of my devices.

Having functionality of items we thought we purchased be continually dependent on the whims and good standing of manufacturers is dystopian. Will I have to worry that I'll remain without light one evening, because the smart lightbulbs were found to infringe some patent? Will the water filter cease to function for a similar reason?
A campaign who's willing to do the legwork to actively identify potential customers/decision makers and advertise to them in innovative ways is perfectly reasonable. The issue is always going to be how they identified the targets and if the sources of data are ones actively consented to, which is different than what Facebook are collecting and providing. A lot of these firms are assuming consent and then reaching as far as they can, and that's always been the problem. I consent to plenty of sources of advertising data through contests, conferences, newsletters, accounts and actions on a particular service, public social media, and so on. If you want to aggregate that consented to information from multiple providers it is fine as long as their privacy policies make that clear. What I don't consent a single provider assuming they can just leech off other providers through device snooping/super cookies/other shenanigans. When some of these inputs are coming from these shady or overreaching sources the campaign itself and anything that's an outcome of that becomes fruit of a poisoned tree. If you look at it from that perspective what becomes 'good' compared to 'bad' becomes straightforward.

If facebook wants this correlating data for outgoing traffic they should be asking to buy it from individual providers instead of assuming consent and scraping it via a side channel on your phone.
