I installed Pop!_OS 21.04 last week and use a USB mic/headphones. After some googling I had to apply this fix to turn off the power saving subsystem which was turning the card on and off. This is on a desktop computer.

I actually find this fun. I worked in the UK for awhile and I mentioned that many Americans find British accents charming. I asked if they felt the same about American accents to which I heard, “No, they just sound monotone.”
To contrast, the time when I had a 40 minute car commute was heavenly for me. I loved the time to myself and to listen to autidobooks.

Types absolutely are a mathematical notion. Formal systems like the calculus of construction and Martin Löf Type Theory are well studdied.
Single data point here. I haven’t actually used FB regularly for 5+ years. When I was single, there were a few dating apps that required it so I kept it around for that reason. Currently the only two features that are even remotely tempting on are groups and marketplace. The latter seems to have taken over the role of “classified section” for the internet from Craigslist so I feel like I’ll have no choice except to use it on occasion. But yeah, groups seem increasingly important to FB for locking people in to their site.
There is probably some truth in all of that (although I strongly disagree in some specific points), but also consider that if "management" is incapable to convey their own value, and to cooperate with "engineers" in a non-antagonizing way, maybe they share some of the responsibilities in the divide... esp. if they are supposed to be "management" and take care of rational things (business value being an obviously rational one...) while engineers are basically... playing with their toys?

I don't understand how your vision of things is not also contributory to a strong divide.

It might help to consider the history of types and sets.

Sets (and consequently modern math and logic) have not been around for as long as we might think. Maybe we had them in different forms, but sets as we know them today were born in 1874 in this paper: https://srjcstaff.santarosa.edu/~jomartin/IrratFiles/Cantors....

Around 1901, Bertrand Russell discovered a paradox in this formulation of sets, so-called Russel's Paradox: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russell's_paradox. There are then many ways of dealing with this paradox. The most widely accepted way is to just reformulate the axioms, which was done with Zermelo-Frankel set theory: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zermelo%E2%80%93Fraenkel_set_t.... When people use the word "mathematics" today, they generally implicitly mean that ZFC is being used. It's the most widely accepted mathematical foundation we have.

Another path was proposed by Russell himself, and that is the notion of "type." By restricting the way in which certain operations and their arguments can be considered "valid," his own paradox can be avoided.

So from the beginning, sets are about _collecting_, and types are about _restricting_.

This assumes you're not willing to do what others cannot or will not do. Innovation and developing your own ideas is key. Even in the 19th and 20th centuries industrial goods were only as good as the purposes they were applied to. The difference is that those industrial goods required greater investment and labor.

Today you can use a computer, develop products and services, market them online and collect revenue with only your own labor. It is a cottage industry with worldwide reach.

If you could reliably read data after 6 passes then HDDs would be 6 times larger with the same hardware.

There is the further belief that state sponsored actors would be able to read them, but this relies that state sponsored actors 1) have hardware capable and 2) would only go to those lengths to get the data.

This reeks of “no true scotsman” to me. They claim is the manifesto, but the author even makes the claim that his process allowed engineers “a month of time without management intervention (a sprint length of 4 weeks). The author being one of the original signers and creator of scrum.

So what would be a less frustrating way -- tagging everything with as many (or as few?) keywords as possible, and then ad-hoc searches as looking through "virtual folders"[1,2] with the tag as the "folder name"?

Higher battery voltage == less copper, smaller wires for the same wattage. Sometimes also a bit more efficiency too (less resistance, smaller absolute voltage drop moving current around).

Your units are a bit messed up load wise - is your computer running at 1 kWh per hour? For how long? (Yeah, that is confusing - but that would be the energy used to power a 220 volt, 4.5 amp load for an hour, every hour).

One of the confusing things with some of these units is kWh is a measure of energy, even though it has a time component in the name (kWh can be directly converted to joules). It isn’t ACTUALLY a measure of power (aka energy over time), even thought it implies it is because it has ‘hour’ in the name.

Power is energy over time.

So you have an absolute number for storage (your battery in this example can store 2.1kWh of energy - 2.1kWH is equivalent in energy to 2100 watts drawn out over an hour).

Your inverters, panels, chargers, etc. will be rated for a level of output POWER (energy over time) then will draw/convert that (say 4 or 8 kw) to/from the batteries. You can easily have an inverter that can draw down those batteries super fast (say will pull down 8kw continuous, so you’d get less than 15 minutes on that battery - if it doesn’t get damaged or explode), or one that draws power out slowly (say 200 watts max) to make it last 10 hours say.

Same with your chargers, etc.

You’re solar panels are almost certainly not rated in kWh, but kw- aka maximum instantaneous power they would be producing at any moment under ideal conditions, not aggregate energy they would be producing or storing over time. This is important because they don’t store power and actual energy production will depend on a lot of factors, like amount of time in the sun, etc.
> Sets are characterized by the \in relation: we can ask which items are elements of a set and which are not.

> Types, on the other hand, are characterized by how elements of the type are built: we can construct elements of a type (and deconstruct them) in certain ways specific to the type.

Huh. So sets vs types are like folksonomies vs taxonomies?

Neat.

The hype brought in people acting with good intentions that you would otherwise not meet and served as a catalyst to chat with people you lost touch with.

This metastasized into agenda pushing of many forms (complaining about black men, both left and right politics, supposed business networking, etc...) from people wishing to exploit this new venue. This drove away most people.

Other social networks deal with this metastasis via the follow mechanism and good suggestions. Without good versions of these, you are left with a public audio chat to talk about events.

I think the difference is having a leader vs shepherds. Most open source projects have shepherds who do a lot of invisible work.

Completely agree pintxo, doing these basic things goes along way to ensuring there's a privacy first mindset when building anything.
The question I’m looking to answer as we work on this problem at Ethyca is how do we make it easy for any developer to bake that mindset into what they’re doing when they’ve got a bunch of other objectives and often understand the detail of data minimization as a concept simply isn’t their area of expertise. Rather like the boundaries of security, we all need to do it, only some are subject matter experts but we all have to fold more security thinking into our work.
I think we can make that far easier for every developer, whatever part of a system they’re working on.

My comment (the GG..GGP) was an (over)reaction to the posted article. The article presents the new approach like a very "natural" explanation, but there are already some other "natural" explanations.

In a Physics degree, the order is quite historical. Like one full course for the three first next items, and all the other together. I'm not sure if there is a book with all of them, you probably need 4 or 5 books.

1) Non-Quantum Non-Relativistic Electromagnetism

2) Quantum Non-Relativistic Electromagnetism

3) Non-Quantum Relativistic Electromagnetism

4) Quantum Relativistic Electromagnetism

5) By the way, you can interpret the Quantum Relativistic Electromagnetism as a U(1) symmetry. (my comment)

6) It looks like a good idea. Let's use other groups to explain other known forces: the weak and strong force. (The G...GP comment about SU(2) and SU(3).)

7) ???

[See note 1]

For some reason, popular science articles love to show something almost magical and prefer to present something like the "5)". It makes it easier to hide the math and use hand waving.

Also, Physicist working in physic particle also believe that "5)" and "6)" are the correct approach, and the other are just useful for teaching and for historical reasons. But to discover "7)" it's better to think about some weird new symmetry group [2].

For examples, a few years ago, it was popular to think the next step "7)" was using a new group SU(5) that combines SU(2) and SU(3). The problems is that the experiments gave different results than then new proposed theory, not too bad but like 1% off. I still remember my professor talking about how great was SU(5) and how the experiment disagree, and he looked heartbroken because he really liked SU(5).

[1] You should add some material about the historical discovery of the weak and strong forces between "5)" and "6)".

[2] Other's prefer superstrings for "7)", there are other approach, but all are weird.

I'm no balloon expert, but it seems like they could have absorbed more heat with a translucent top.

Then the solar rays would enter the chamber before hitting the black fabric and reflecting back into the chamber.. more frequencies of light, more chances to catch the heat.

A PinePhone would work fine for that I think. It's also possible to use any MSM8916 phone together with postmarketOS to do that kind of thing, the G4 is not supported on mainline in postmarketOS yet sadly, only the G4 Play.

I would recommend to use usb tethering though instead of wifi tethering. Just get a router that has an USB port that supports a modem and use that with a phone.
Flatpak is great, you're able to install and run programs without configuration on most distributions. exept it also (obviously) installs all dependencies, configurations and settings while you usually only need glibc or some other variant to make a program run.

I'd prefer running without flatpak because when something doesn't work you'll be wondering wether its flatpak, the system or the program that is missing something.
The motivation for writing this post is the same as the motivation for any post —- it’s an interesting story. It seems like you might be taking offense from a post that’s just trying to analyze a case where the perceived hype, and the underlying assumptions for the reason for the perceived hype, were disassociated from the actual numbers seen during the general release of the app.
Just as this author stated, the rooms in Clubhouse have turned into a garbage dump and many are things most people don't want to be associated with. You could be flicking through and accidentally enter one of these due to the way it's designed.
That doesn't answer my question :-) Are you all regularly having terrible problems that need in-depth discussion? Are you all celebrating every success with its own party? Are your processes so wildly off the mark that you have to change everything every sprint? Is there something else you do in your retrospectives that I don't? For my current team (also around 10-12 devs, 2 week sprints) it's:

- what went well? we completed most/all of our tasks, cracked a tricky problem, received good feedback from somewhere - let's say 5-10 minutes of celebration

- what didn't go well? maybe a task was more difficult than expected, some new requirement added unexpected difficulties, some third party something didn't perform as expected - 10-15 minutes of commiseration and discussion, maybe more if there's something complicated, perhaps that requires further action

- what would you do differently? unless there are some procedural problems, I would expect almost nothing here; maybe someone has some new ideas about how to improve something, perhaps some aspect of the project isn't running as smoothly as it could - 5-10 minutes maybe

So about thirty minutes max across the whole team, usually less. What secret magic are we missing out on? Six hours??

> I heard him make the claim that Clubhouse has bigger potential than text-based social platforms, because talking has less friction than writing

Finding people that talk about stuff is one thing, finding people who like to listen to other people talking is the other. Unfortunately, listening has much higher friction than reading.
I'm guessing the reason it's not often used in programming is due to slower performance and larger memory requirements. I typically see rationals (numerator/denominator pair) used in arbitrary-precision libraries.

> ..Arithmetic with rational numbers can become unwieldy very quickly: 1/99 − 1/100 = 1/9900, and if 1/101 is then added, the result is 10001/999900.

"Let’s say we want to send information to another Ractor, but don’t want to block for it to finish processing it. What happens if the receiving Ractor is too slow to process the data?"

I would prefer an API where the channels can be "buffered", so that a channel can be configured to hold at maximum N items, and trying to add to a full channel would block the producer.

I would also suggest that you totally split the consuming/producing from other tasks, that way you don't have to worry about blocking them.

Some pseudo code:

channel = newChannel<string>(size: 10)
task {
// Producer
loop {
channel.send("hello")
sleepMs(500)
}
}

task {
// Consumer
loop {
message = channel.receive()
print(message)
sleepMs(1000)
}
}

task {
// Some other code
loop {
print("working hard")
sleepMs(100)
{
}

I like the way Kotlin does this, as well as Crystal:

That's very different from "championed and signed a law." Government agencies recommend lots of things, and industry associations sometimes adopt them; calling these "laws" way overstates the government's control.
