Lived there for roughly a year. Short term I cant think of anywhere better, the country is within the OPs budget and offers metropolis cities, to tropical beaches. The food is good, and the culture is fascinating - if thats your kind of thing & are prepared to be open minded.

Long term, I share the same sentiments and felt it was time to leave after a hell of a year. On reflection, that year was probably on of the best of my 30+ years on this planet.

I sometimes think of doing it all again, going into an unknown culture and winging it. You learn a lot about yourself that way. Good luck to OP whichever country he chooses!

It seems better to use flatpak, snap or appimage. These can be created once and run on any distro. Flatpak and snaps also include permissions on a per application basis so you can have some level of sandboxing. It is also easy to have proprietary applications which could help with more widespread Linux usage.

Joe Rogan was a UFC interviewer & commentator, Fear Factor host, and comedian. Not exactly an unaccomplished stoner. All his jobs were great experience in interviewing people.

Everything you said is subjective. I don't really like him as a person, but our personalities are different. His interviews and podcasts are interesting because he lets the guest talk, unlike many other hosts.

All in all I don't agree with your assessment. I'm sure they people you listed are nice, but you could apply your same shallow subjective critiques to them as well.

Once burned twice shy eh. I agree, it can be hard to distinguish genuine issues and dog whistles from each other.

> If your opinions are anywhere right of woke, you get banned straight up

This was my bad. I did exaggerate a bit. The issue does bring out the worst in me. I still stand by the spirit of my point though.

> what attitude or opinion crossed the line?

My understanding is that reddit mods are not genius propagandists. So, their concerns revolve around banning anyone who steps on a set of predefined land mines.

Past the shallow left good - right bad, there is an impression of India, Philippines, Brazil being run by 'strong-men ethno nationalists' who are all right-wing and bad. Any time that status quo is genuinely questioned, you step on a land mine. They particularly don't like the semantic lines between right & left being blurred.

A couple of other land mines are : ( I single out left triggers, because that's what this community cares about. The right is often guilty of similar or worse things, but they do it with a kind of brazen selfishness that it doesn't seem as hypocritical)

* how various far-left faces are pursuing the same 'american dream' they so heavily criticize.

* If you point out that research on medical transition during puberty is lacking and a lot of gender-affirming models of treatment based in shaky science.

* That a statistical majority of black people support increase in policing. A lot counter-intuitive statistical results among 'captive demographics' are triggers in general.

* Criticisms of Islam in general. I won't extend this to Hindus = evil, but I feel like there is a general dislike towards Hinduism as a result as well. However, it is possible I am just more tuned into it.

That is exactly why I got banned. The polite and well-spoken ingroup contrarian (IGW) is a rather dangerous breed. (see another one of my comments in the same thread about IGWs)

It's so modern (C++20), it's not actually implemented fully by all compilers yet.

https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/compiler_support#cpp20
> 2. In the bad old days of the x87, the FPU carried out computations on eight 80-bit registers. The problem is that whenever those registers spilled out to the stack, precision was truncated down to whatever type the language actually meant (64-bit double or 32-bit float). Because the register-spilling decision is mostly taken by the compiler, it was largely unpredictable. This resulted in code that was not reproducible, even across compiles! Since x87 was deprecated in favor of SSE/AVX, the precision of operations is always that of the type used in the code. Lower than 80-bits but much better in practice because of consistency and reproducibility.

even today it's still possible to end up with things in the x87 registers, I don't know of a compiler toggle to entirely and unequivocally disable it.
> It would be pretty dumb to say people couldn't pretty much go to space.

I'm not convinced you're reading the posts of the person you're arguing with, or really putting much effort at all into understanding what they're trying to say.
This is doubly awful because when I show a non-tech user around linux, the thing they're always most impressed by and which is most distinct about the linux experience compared to Win/Mac is the ability to pull arbitrary software from distro repos.

But the GUIs are awful. The cli experience is awful, too, but better and we get used to it. They're never going to get used to it, and why would they want to? I don't know the answer; package management is a complicated problem. But maybe some sort of distributed app-store experience where the package manager also manages marketing for and forums about the apps. See, I really don't know - but having to go to a webpage and read a bunch of marketing material then download, or go to an app store and get descriptions, screenshots, and commentary by other users is somehow a subjectively better experience for non-tech types than "apt-cache search" or its GUI equivalents.

CureVac probably failed because they used unmodified RNA base pairs. Both Moderna and BioNTech/Pfizer use modified nucleosides such as N1-methyl-pseudouridine. Extracellular unmodified mRNA - which could arise from the lipid nanoparticles which contain the mRNA breaking down before transfection of cells - can trigger a deleterious innate immune reaction against said mRNA. This interferes with the desired immune recognition of the spike protein. The modified mRNA largely evades that undesired immune reaction. That's probably what sunk CureVac's vaccine.
> Do you know if access to Docker volumes is faster or slower on WSL2

If your files are stored within the VM itself, WSL2's access to them is effectively native. However accessing the files from Windows requires going through the \\wsl$ (P9) network share. This presents problems as Windows isn't going to receive file notification events if you do something like `git checkout`. Additionally, if your project utilizes symlinks, Windows only sees them as an empty file.

Users of VS Code largely will not encounter these problems as running `code` from within the WSL layer will start a remote server, it's seamless, that's genuinely very cool. However, if you use anything else, I've found it to be problematic.

The "best" solution I arrived at (other than dual-booting Linux, which is totally worth it!) is to install `xorg-server` from cygwin, install my IDE of choice in WSL2 (IDEA) and use X11 forwarding. This way the IDE has a relatively real-time view of the filesystem, receives notification events, symlinks work, chmod is preserved if using safe-writes etc.

If you need to use bash (and other tools not provided by Git Bash), cygwin is a useful addition. You can also use `mklink` from cmd/powershell to create a directory hardlink to the \\wsl$ folder if you need to copy things into WSL (although it's easier to access /mnt/drive from WSL2). Either way, I've found any direction of crossing Host/VM filesystem boundaries to be slower than WSL1's approach.
i'm speaking from a european city (400k inhabitants) perspective, where everything is rather crowded compared to the american suburb commute.

> A majority of the population cannot use bicycles for long trips

well, bicycling _in the city_ is usually meant for short trips, but 95% of my trips are short trips of less than 10km.

> Only healthy citizens with an excess of time and energy are able to use them for trips

excess of time: on my commute i'm on average a lot faster by bike - no gridlock, no search for a parking spot

energy: carbs are cheap

healthy: cycling improves your health and fitness follows an S-curve. even if the ride is arduous in the beginning, it quickly gets easier

> The elderly, children

personal experience (biased): compared to driving, a disproportional amount of cyclists are elderly or children

> those with heart conditions, asthma, or many other health conditions

i don't know about that. a bike courier i know uses an asthma inhaler, but i haven't asked him about it.

> and anyone needing to transport anything heavier than their own body

you're right that there's a limit, but i can impose those same arbitrary limits on cars: "what if i need to transport X which doesn't fit in a car?"

> Creating exclusionary space for bicycles is the opposite of progressive policy and efficient urban design.

it's a safe space for cyclists who are not able or willing to ride on the road shared with drivers. i usually don't mind riding on the road, but as soon as i got my toddler in the trailer i tend to get rather touchy about safe cycling infrastructure.

i'm not sure what you're arguing for though. are you arguing for motorized individual transport, because the disabled, elderly, toddlers prefer cars? or public transport?
The only way to make those jobs manageable is to create some sense of meaning and mastery out of them. You're always striving to do a little bit better job. You remind yourself of the importance of what you're doing. If you have a good manager, they're trying to find ways to give you autonomy in what you're doing.

India must have the most efficient real estate in the world then. Let's take a nice hard look at their infrastructure.

Do you own a home? Would you willingly let it be replaced alongside surrounding properties with an apartment complex? After all, it's more efficient.

You shouldn't own a washing machine either, that's silly. A laundromat helps reduce the need to own the appliances and create a more social environment.

And we haven't even begun talking about that car you own. Gross. Public transportation is so much more efficient.

Oh you actually wanted to travel somewhere and not have to spend 4 hours of your day to go there, take care of your business, then come home? Weird.

I don't disagree - I'm not suggesting anywhere that this be used to directly upload to unstable. There's definitely a class of users who would like the balance between freshness and quality to be closer to freshness for some packages.

There's a big warning on https://janitor.debian.net/fresh about the packages not having had human review, and the last paragraph of the blog post mentions this as well.

That said, I do believe strongly that we can let automation take care of more of the (boring bits) of the packaging process even for unstable, and leave the interesting bits that automation can't help with to the humans.

I was using IDE drives on x86 PCs from 1992 to around 2005.

I never had any real problem configuring them. I probably used about 20 different drives across 10 different machines.

Put the master at the end of the cable and the slave in the middle.

After the CS (Cable Select) jumpers and cables were popular it was even easier.

SCSI was more of a pain because even though you could have 7 devices (the 8th being the controller card) it became unreliable with more than 4 drives. Sometimes I would try to add a 5th and stuff would get erratic.

I also had problems when a SCSI tape drive was on the same channel as hard drives. We got 3 SCSI cards each with 2 channels for our Sun server. We put 4 drives on each channel except for one that had our 4 tape drives (QIC-something, 4mm, 8mm, DLT library)
yeah, it's hard to overstate the importance of getting your hardware into people's hands to work with. A $5k buy-in before you can even play with programming on a device and figure out if your program is going to work on GPGPU at all is a big deal! CUDA being accessible on a $100 gaming GPU has enabled a lot of development, and NVIDIA also has made big efforts to get their hardware out to universities, and that has paid big dividends as well.

Also, just flat-out using your own developers to write the basic code for libraries and frameworks and so on. There are tons of basic libraries like CuRAND and CUB (Cuda UnBound) and I'm sure tons of others that NVIDIA wrote not because a customer wanted that, but because it was building blocks that others could leverage into products that would sell NVIDIA hardware. In contrast AMD has fallen behind in that area, and has further fragmented their development work across a bunch of "flavor of the week" frameworks and implementations that usually get discarded within a couple years (remember HIP? remember Bolt? etc)

> The issue is not the package. Obviously Sasha is allowed to publish whatever packages he wishes.

You were specifically trying to block the package from being installed without recompiling musl.

> This then causes many people to complain in Alpine support channels, or on websites like this one, that Alpine is "buggy" in ways that cannot be reproduced on real Alpine.

You're putting too much pressure on yourself. This is simple... if someone isn't using the official Alpine image (alpine) then they should ask for support from the image creator, as there are thousands of things that can go wrong outside of you control.

> No, this is our first reaction to a large company trying to pass off their hackjob images combining Alpine, glibc and a glibc JDK as a certified JDK that is running on stock Alpine.

Labeling other developers work as hackjob images is condescending. Your whole post was condescending. Just because someone has alpine in an image tag doesn't mean that they are trying to indicate that it uses stock Alpine as the base image, but instead that it uses Alpine as the underlying distro. Who knows what software or changes they've added to it that may cause issues outside of Alpine's control.

They're in the consumer gadgets business now, that there is accidentally a computer in there somewhere is more of a historical artifact than the main business driver.

It seems there will be pool staking in ETH, although I agree ideally staking threshold should be low.

Consider the case with Proof of Work (ASIC-based): you need to purchase specialized hardware for several $k (apparently at least $2k), spend more on specialized infrastructure (power supply, cooling, servers) and live somewhere with almost free energy. Otherwise it's just not economical to mine. This leaves out the vast majority of people as well, and incentivizes (1) massive economies of scale of farms, (2) shady or corrupt deals for free energy, through local government or simply illegal connections to the network.
