Oh, I didn't meant it that way. Here it is a replacement for electricity and their ingenuity is quite intricate. On the contrary, they put up quite a bar that has to be matched by those calling them backwards.

Aside from that pressured air has quite a lot of applications. Some high tech robots use pneumatics instead of hydraulics or gas for certain applications. It is not at all a deprecated technology, the principle is more or less the same.

It is also 100% more ecological if you use the air pump to power your devices.
But you were correct
I think the idea of a new set is great, but then I think it needs to have a bigger scope than this pair of commands. Perhaps a whole new suite that is consistent and can replace most if not all typical tasks. If this pair of commands is part of a larger suite of porcelain that is internally consistent that’s great. Or at least part of a design or plan for such a “new toolset” where more commands will follow - that’s also a good solution. The important bit is the design process and long term plans so it isn’t just more slow aggregating which was how git got into the current state in the first place.

If there is more to this retooling project than meets the eye (in this article) then great. My
fear is that it’s more inconsistent aggregation, again - but it’s not obviously the case of course.
Dude, the old guard Democrats love Israel. They have nothing to worry about, at all.
Too bad for them, because they're (supposedly) professional software developers hired to work on this project and the project uses git.
A headline in Linux gaming circles that hasn't hit the wider circuit yet (probably because it hasn't actually been delivered yet) is that Valve are working with Battleye and EAC to get anti-cheat working on Proton for the release of the steam deck.

If this happens it will be, without exaggeration, the greatest thing to ever happen to Linux gaming.

I'm not expecting a massive increase overnight, but it should mean that the marketshare will increase more likely than it will decrease.

I would strongly disagree. The Book teaches you not only a system of organisation but also how to think about tasks and organisation in general. The system can be broken down into 20 pages. The general thinking around it cannot easily be condensed as much. It has helped me a lot beyond GTD because the same principles can be applied in other contexts such as agile dev work or organising a company.
Thank you! I see that the website you notified us about, c19vaxreactions, collects reports from people that were victims of severe adverse reactions. It is surely important that notion of these cases is spread, against a naive idea of granted full innocuity of the vaccines - but on the other hand, the narrative of these cases is of concern, in terms of damage, as much as the narrative of post-infection cases (a significant number of people hit by COVID are impaired). This is why it is important to understand whether a risk of a blow to one's health and quality of life after a vaccine, vs after an infection, is quantifiable as one tenth, one thousandth, one millionth etc.

Many of us have been exposed to direct narrative about adverse side effects from vaccines, i.e. from acquaintances. Those "nearby" cases, coming from a limited pool, may seem to indicate that the tens-per-million to few-hundreds-per-million cases emerging from the VAERS are only a subset of the actual cases. Hence the importance to clarify the magnitudes.
But that point is wrong. All security is layers, nothing is bulletproof.
"Exclusive" is different from "without substitute".

The crank isn't special. They're making it out to be, but it isn't. Any device with an analog stick can achieve the same. In 1996 Super Mario 64 on the then-new Nintendo 64 had players spinning the analog stick in rotary motion to spin Bowser by the tail. The Steam controller (and the new Deck) have track pads that can emulate rotation. The Nintendo DS had a touch screen you could draw circles on. Every computer mouse since like 30 years ago has had a scroll wheel. Heck in my local game museum there's an ancient Pong game console and the controllers literally have only knobs to twist to move the paddles. Stop pretending like this is some novel innovation.

Anecdata: I finally bought GTA V on Steam Linux now that protondb reports flawless single player operation (which I’m happy to report is accurate). It allegedly runs 20% slower than on Windows, but because I’m living 8 years in the future, relative to its release date, I now have a PC powerful enough that it can run at 60fps and max settings regardless of that 20% hit.

Fortunately I have no interest in multiplayer.
i've used discord without any noticeable issue (except that their "magic" noise cancellation algo is missing from the linux version) - what do you mean by streaming audio, out of interest?
I don't understand why people insist on this shoehorning either.

KDE 1.0 came out in 1998 - 23 years ago (O god I'm old).

The discussion of "Linux to replace windows desktop" is over two decades old.

In computer age this is something geological. It's like... well, Macintosh came out in 1984. Xerox Alto came 1973. If we go back 5 years we reach Englebart's Mother of All Demos in 1968 which I think can be considered the intellectual precursor of those.

So there is 5 years from a tech demo on high-end research platform to a (more or less) commoditized consumer offering - even though Xerox had no idea what to do with it. Steve Jobs visits Xerox 1979 and five years later they deliver Macintosh.

So, with engineering talent PLUS business drive they copy the idea, implement their own hardware and software stack and are instant hit (well, let's say for the sake of this discussion they are a hit).

In FIVE years.

Linux is trying to copy the software stack, of an existing platform, and has been "attempting" this for two decades.

This is not an engineering problem. This is not a community problem. It's a "lack of business interest problem".

Honestly, the Linux desktop is quite usable. I'm quite sure two decades are enough for the open source software stack to find some local optimum for the desktop offering.

But really, copying and supporting a continuously moving target needs real capital and real business drive to sustain the boring, mind numbing support work that is needed to actually sustain an industrial quality platform.

Linux is fantastic in lots of things.

I'm not sure reverse engineering Windows stack on Linux is very effective way of spending our civilizations engineering resources.

I appreciate masochistic Rude Goldbergish feats of engineering as much as the next geek, but I just don't see the value of individuals detached from the corporations that are implementing the master stack trying to reverse engineer everything on top of a third party platform.

Native Linux support? That would be nice. Native drivers and all? That would be nice.

If it works for someone that's very cool and satisfying - but I still think reverse engineering based gaming stacks for modern platforms that are alive and well are not perhaps the best way to spend engineering effort.

No, it isn't, and it doesn't.

3. Therefore, phenomenological experience causes activity in the brain.

It's not a redefinition; just a challenge of your assumptions.
You may at least want to take a look at vdirsyncer[0]. Assuming all of your sources run CalDAV that you can hit than you can at least extract the events.

> You can make accurate parts on an 'inaccurate' conventional machine.

To a point, sure. At some stage, it doesn't matter how much of an old timer you are and how much knowledge of your machines' limitations you have - you just need to make a part the machine cannot.

You can basically always rescrape a machine, give it new gibs, and be back to 100%.
Haskell: Lists and Functions Declarations by Kalvad
I had a round at accenture about 8 months ago, multiple interviews over a month and a half maybe; and it went first interview with a manager wanted me to go forward, second interview someone who okayed me for tech interview and what position I should be looking at, third interview tech interview said fine now you need to talk to HR head and she will make final determination, HR head said send you info later in day some days later still nothing, about a week later message from HR needed to have another interview with someone, consulting offer came in I figured well this isn't going anywhere took consulting offer.

1 week later the managerial guy called up and said ok everything went through now we can talk about the job I said "sorry, I took a job". He wished me good luck but I'm not sure from his voice if he really meant it.

Whatever, browser-based apps still are apps, not necessarily easier than native apps. A browser essentially is a launcher with its own UI toolkit and discovery mechanism. Open GMail, Google Docs or whatever, hide the address bar and you essentially get an ordinary app you still have to learn.
> Volatile because compared to, say, factories full of heavy machinery, IT is pretty easy to change.

This one sentence explains why agile doesn’t actually work and why Enterprise Architects are still struggling to explain why they are needed.

Because it’s simply not true. Yes, you can change the software more easy in the mind of the software developer, but you can almost never do so in the mind of the user.

I work in a municipality that employs 10.000 people. IT is there to support them, but too many of our systems do the opposite because they were developed by agile companies, who didn’t look at the whole picture and who never understood that the software they sell isn’t the most important thing in the world.

I can already feel the author cringing at the whole picture part, but trust me. I’m Danish we have a nation wide enterprise architecture called “rammearkitekturen” (frame work architecture) that has and is being developed by some of the smartest enterprise architects in our country and what they’ve come up with still can’t contain the complexity of reality, because people aren’t buildings and workflows aren’t actually LEAN and there isn’t a “right” way to do things but instead a myriad of different ways that are all great.

This is where software architecture fails completely and it’s where agile doesn’t understand that it doesn’t actually solve complexity better by taking it in bits. Because real architecture is an architect drawing up a new city hall building that will be capable of housing 2000 employees, a library and city services and then turning those plans over to the engineers who will then build it on time and within budget with minimal changes during the process.

That’s architecture. Enterprise Architecture is mainly about creating a bunch of artefacts that will sit in a virtual drawer for 5 years until the next “architect” decides to waste a bunch of time updating them.

Agile may work at companies like Google, I don’t know, but on non-tech it’s just a bullshit paradigm that doesn’t show better results, but does give middle managers and enterprise architects an excuse as to why something went wrong that doesn’t make them look bad to control groups and actual decision makers.

Sorry, but I just don’t agree with anything in your article.
Yes, I mentioned this in my comment.

I dunno looking at the SO developer survey most respondents were reporting 5+ years experience.

While I agree that there are many people still doing weird stuff/things for non-commercial reasons they are being hosted within bigger and often closed eco-systems that are much more commercially minded.

Division 1 or 2?

Division 1 was built in a way that would be very hard to run on Linux, Division 2 however was ported to Stadia which is basically Ubuntu.

If it wasn't for Stadia that effort would never have been spent, I was a huge advocate for linux on those projects for years.

yeah, I've played around with a few approaches for running the timestep and for some reason I don't feel like I get the same results as liquidfun.js.

their loop [0] is pretty simple; it's scheduled by `requestAnimationFrame`, advances time by 1/60th of a second, and runs their default of 3 particle iterations. it completes the physics simulation within 3.9–5.5ms, which is easily in time for the 16ms deadline. the rendering is WebGL, which I assume fits easily into that 16ms budget too.

my loop [1] is more complicated; I don't hardcode the timestep to 1/60 seconds, because requestAnimationFrame may be scheduled less frequently than that. so instead I advance time by the time elasped since I was last scheduled. hm, I think there's a mistake there — `lastMs = nowMs` is probably on the wrong side of the physics calculation.

there's an additional technique I use: I put a `Math.min()` over the simulation interval, so that I don't attempt to simulate more than 20ms (this can happen if you get scheduled infrequently due to hot CPU or backgrounding the app) — simulating too much time will make us fail our frame deadline anyway.

furthermore, if we are calculating more than 1/60th of a second, I employ more particle iterations (i.e. 3 particle iterations for every 1/60th of a second that passes). this gave me good results, but turns out it is based on incorrect assumptions (iterations are unrelated to timestep)[3]. moreover, I may be making mistakes in my decision of whether to round this fraction up/down.

if too few particle iterations for a timestep: the particles will bounce. if too many: the particles will look too incompressible[4]. I think that's the "solid-like" structure you're describing.

the main reason I complicated this is because the last one I did[5] made me feel motion-sick. I think if "every 1/60th, or 1/30th, or 1/20th of a second: you simulate a 1/60th of a second of time": the result (if you're not scheduled consistently) is that the world speed keeps changing. I think liquidfun.js's approach should be vulnerable to this, but for some reason it looks fine to me. maybe they get scheduled more consistently than me (even though by my measurements, my physics runs slightly faster, so should be able to achieve similar results).

I think I need to remind myself of what happens if I program the timestep in the simple way that liquidfun.js did. will try that out at some point.

What's your reasoning for concluding that stocks were substantially undervalued?

Because another way to read the situation is that stocks are simply the asset of last resort. In a world with no interest, you can't park money in bonds (or CD's etc.) so you've basically got stocks, real-estate and commodities left as options.

Large-scale asset managers are not going to park billions of dollars under the mattress, so basically it has to go to stocks.
