So let's say that's 10 cars and 200 bikes (being generous, usually cars have only one person in them, and also bikes esp. with children in biking-heavy countries have more than one person carried by them).

If they are evenly spaced, there will be a car every 0.1 miles - and each car is going 100mph according to this thought experiment. This gives 3.6 seconds to cross between 100 mph cars that probably won't swerve to avoid you and may careen out of control if they do.

Meanwhile, there is a bike every 26.4 feet, and you have 1.8 seconds to cross. 10 MPH is speedy for a bike, but they have to only slightly adjust to avoid hitting you if you make a mistake (and are about 1/5th the width if not less).

I'll take the bikes!

Most of them aren't actually all that small, it's just that the perspective it's being filmed from (the narrator's head-camera) is on a stage, and VR warps things in your periphery pretty hard.

There's also the fact that it's easier to be immersed if you aren't leaning heavily on realism; Oculus has a lot of research on this, actually. For example, if you have a photorealistic avatar but aren't doing eye-tracking, it's actually more jarring and discomforting than a cartoon avatar without it. That's why the initial avatars they did had force-obscured eyes and no color, and the new ones are literally cartoons: your mind can adapt to something very different, but it can't adapt to something that's just subtly different.

However, some people do choose to do weird stuff. That's mostly a tech thing though. If you go to a normal place, you'll find a lot of actual kids and actual teenagers, and they're relatively normal. Very few people as weird as the tech community.

Really, technical people in digital spaces kind of get a bit wild with their self-expression. Some theorize it's because most of them don't express themselves much in real life.

I've tried this particular app only a handful of times (I don't like using proprietary software, but it's important to keep yourself updated with the state of it), and when I wasn't visiting explicitly tech-related things, it was pretty normal.

I can hardly see lead chipping, it's much too soft for that. In general handling lead in its solid state is pretty safe. It's mostly lead dust you'd need to worry about. In any case washing your hands after handling lead is pretty much a foolproof way to be safe. It doesn't absorb through the skin.

I don't understand what you're getting at, but you can implement CoW at the page level with MMU hardware. That's how Redis dumping works, for example (the process forks into two, with one dumping to disk and the other continuing to take updates, CoW'ing pages that get modified and sharing the rest). What would CoW even mean inside a single address space? The idea of persistent data structures (as used in functional programming and other places) is that you never visibly modify anything, but instead make new objects that share structure with the old objects, relying on the GC to clean up data that stops being reachable.

The shipped userland is either out of date or uses BSD (not GNU) tools. Install updated GNU tools using brew.

Be forewarned that brew is slow and unreliable compared to apt or dnf. The compiler Apple ships also has weird defaults; you may need to reconfigure your builds.

Alternatively, just build in docker (but beware that docker performance is worse than Linux).

In the UK we have house developers converting offices located in busy industrial estates into residential flats.

There's been a number of deaths of residents and countless accidents recently because of some of these locations are absolutely terrible for residents to live in.

One area on my way to work has no green space for about a mile, access is through a single busy road used by skips and big vehicles and the noise starts early in the morning, and air pollution is very high. Where do families and children go when they want to play?

I think it's criminal councils are approving some areas for residential use. I think councils are liable for deaths in these unsuitable areas.

I'm using electron-builder too. Things get more complicated when you want to publish your app on different app stores.

I was unable to build a Snap Store package for arm on an amd64 machine. Canonical provides their own remote build service, but proprietary projects can't use it yet.

In order to build a package for distribution on the Mac App Store I have to use macOS with XCode installed and signing certificates stored in the system keychain. Uploading the package to the app store also must be done with macOS-specific tools. At least it is possible to build multi-arch packages, so I don't need two separate machines as it is the case with snaps.

Windows 10 with Windows SDK is required to build an appx package for distribution on the Microsoft Store.
I've found Linux filesharing easier to work with than Windows but that's about it.
I really hate "incompetence" as an explanation for anything, but especially something as complex as software and security in particular. Obviously, it's easy to blame a single person as incompetent, but the reality is that their work was certainly part of a team effort. Are all those people incompetent? They were using Azure, which presumably didn't warn them well enough, so are the Azure team incompetent for deploying a dangerous application? Clearly the technical authors who wrote and reviewed and published the Azure docs did a bad job of explaining CosmosDB's security model. If these Fortune500 companies employed a security team to test and audit their cloud apps then they missed the problem too. Or maybe they didn't, but some manager or product owner didn't read the report properly, so that security team were incompetent for failing to report the problem well.

This is how everything works in pretty much every industry. There are layers upon layers of complexity in everything, and no one has enough oversight to take full responsibility for some mistake that occurred somewhere down the rabbit hole.

Somewhere, somehow you could probably call someone's mistake incompetence, but doing that relieves everyone else of their little part in developing a chain of tools and applications that enabled that incompetence. If we heap all the blame on a single individual then no one else has any reason to improve it. We can just say "OMG, Chris was terrible! I'm so glad he's been fired now everything will be perfect!" until the whole sorry mess happens again.

Instead if we accept that mistakes are inevitable, and we accept that anyone can make one, then we're driven to build systems and processes that include guards against mistakes. Applications that check and validate things automatically, even if it's hard and expensive. That's how you get to robust software that doesn't fail like the thing in the article. Blaming individuals will never get you to that point.

That's fair - I've been working fully remote for ~5 years now and I'm trying to decide where to move (not under the same constraints as OP though)
I see where you're going with this, but I disagree. Normal people want cars and planes and phones sure. But they don't really have any voice or choice in how the manufacturing is done, and they always want the cheapest options. Most don't even know what environmental issues the products or services they consume result in. They are intentionally deceived, kept uneducated, and lied to via sold media outlets and false advertising.

Thus, it is responsibility of the powers that be to move in the direction which research suggests is the best for humanity's and the earth's long term existence.

Politicians are supposed to do that via taxes and subsidies to promote environment-friendly options. But, the US has shown that it's easy for a old, selfish, and dumb politicians to sway the masses with false promises and grandiose oration. And the politicians, given that they have less than 20 years remaining on this earth, are happy to fill their pockets with more money than they can use rather than giving a fuck about the future.

Secondly, the oil companies are supposed to have some sense and care for humanity and not continue choosing options that damage the earth but instead should have started shifting to environmental friendly options when they became aware of the consequences of burning oil. But, again, they are happy to forget it all in return for some extra profits. Maybe it's because they know that if they stop selling oil, some other competitor will start. But if the top oil companies actually worked with the government to get oil restricted and promote renewables, they could actually have made a difference and at least taken a step in the right direction. But they didn't even try.

It's really futile to share blame with the consumers, the world we live in does not give the average person any choice. And the average person is too damn tired with working a meaningless 8h+commute/day to even think or learn about these issues. The blame lies fully with the powers on top.

> Furthermore, what has Australia really gained?

A lot, economically. Australia & NZ returned to growth faster than just about anywhere else on the planet, and the states that locked down hardest returned to growth fastest.

So it was a big win heath wise, and a big win economically. Whether the new rules were a big loss of freedom is a matter of taste I guess, but we already have lots of rules like don't drive too fast, don't yell Fire! in a theatre, your kids must be schooled, don't has sex with minors. More rules than you can poke a pointed stick at in fact. In comparison the new ones were a drop in the ocean, and they disappeared as soon as they weren't needed (ie, when the lock downs worked). I sincerely wish the other rules were reviewed as quickly.
i learned recently that gimp has a command palette that you can access by pressing the / key. this might sound a bit over the top but its been a game changer for me. no more having to scan though icons looking for whatever tool, just type something like /crop. its makes it very quick to create or delete layers, open things like levels, colour balance etc

I'm surprised the photoshop doesn't have the same feature. it would makes things so much easier for online tutorials just to name the tool or setting instead of having to list out the full location in the file menu (which is something that might be subject to change in future versions)
I don’t understand - why the childish behaviour and wilful ignorance? If the facts don’t matter to you, that’s fine. All the best.

> Although, do modern OSes rely too much on the Internet, or does the modern development ecosystem?

I'd say both.

Operating systems should be developed with offline first in mind, instead of giving into the prevalence of downloading things from the Internet. For example, Debian has apt-cdrom which allows updating /etc/apt/sources.list and adding packages from DVDs or CDs. That is good, the next logical progression of which would be doing the same for any storage medium - flash memory, HDDs, SSDs etc., just a set of tools to easily create package mirrors on these storage devices and to read them from the OS to make airgapped environments even easier.

Instead, as things currently stand, downloading a package with all of its dependencies is perhaps needlessly hard if you don't want a full mirror, but only need something like gcc with everything it depends on in one gcc-with-all-dependencies.deb file. And the situation isn't necessarily much better with the way how Flatpak and Snap packages want to handle updates, while there are definitely valid arguments to be made about automatically updating packages over the internet, as Debian unattended upgrades already does, relying on it too much makes software brittle.

For example, just look at this: https://unix.stackexchange.com/a/541583

It took Flatpak until 2020 to address this, i'm not even sure what the situation is with snap packages and using them in air gapped environments, since that's also only in beta: https://docs.ubuntu.com/snap-store-proxy/en/airgap

I apologize if the above sounds a bit like rambling, but the bottom line is that if developers truly cared about airgapped environments, then using and managing them would be as easy as the alternatives, not less so. Be it in regards to tools, to how packages are managed, or even just the day to day experience while using them.

And that trend extends deeply both into the OS itself, as well as the software that's used by it (especially in cases of non-standard update mechanisms, like some browsers like to do), as it does with the development ecosystems nowadays. It's surprisingly how little pushback something like snap got, instead of the community delaying its utilization until all of the concerns have been addressed.

I'm not saying that we shouldn't innovate in regards to package management, apt over apt-get showed that there definitely can be improvements in regards to usability, it's just that we as an industry should never be satisfied with using half baked solutions.
I did not choose to be pedantic and I'm sorry you concluded that. I also did not get much meaning into your own comment other that it suggested there was "more to be seen".

I commented because, having tried it on desktop and then on mobile, the experience is still fairly similar. Most people commenting on it "not doing much" were generally expecting more functionality -e.g. some additional visualization of the tunnel or whatever-, not just a different input control. Telling people to try it again but on mobile would probably not make them find such additional value.

I'm sad you took this so personally and so negatively.
And also, no one needs to have their work slack and email on their personal phone. Why would you do that to yourself??
This is neither fun nor true. Kids do not decline, they grow, and that's only the most blatantly obvious example.
I'd say my non-browser apps crash more than the browser.

Offline is one of the biggest reasons to ship a full PWA. This is what service workers are for. The biggest reason to not ship a PWA is Apple barely supports them and you can't siphon as much user data if sandboxed in the browser.

I would LOVE if I could get a basic PWA from my bank that didn't have all of these permissions like trying to read if I'm rooted or not, location access, storage -- none of their business what I do with my device or where I am -- and I could still scan QR codes, check balance, do transfers.

That's not how the math works out, it isn't linear. The distance it takes to stop anything is dominated by a term quadratic in the velocity. Thus the average safe traffic density decreases with the velocity like v^-2. Since the throughput will just be the velocity times the traffic density, throughput roughly decreases proportional to 1/v. (In the zero velocity limit, physical size terms would dominate, so you don't get infinite throughput.)

https://www.omnicalculator.com/physics/stopping-distance

So if you do the math, bikes take up less time-space, or said better: achieve higher throughput. They are multiple times more dense at their travelling speeds. The only real way out of this would be to travel at unsafe distances.

I 100% agree with you that this should be Congress's job.

Unfortunately, the people's branch has been acquiring job security by avoiding power and responsibility for a long time, leaving others to make decisions. Given that's the world as it is (and not the world as written), I think the Center for Disease Control is the least worst option for making edicts about public health.

I think it would be worse if another department did it. The only possibly better solution I can think of involves leaving it to states plenary power, but on the other hand a public health emergency crosses state lines and impacts interstate commerce.
IMO with games it's preplanned fraud for profit, With hardware it's due to pandemic induced chip shortage but I guess it's still a fraud when product states something and delivers another.

I was expecting that the silent feature reductions in the automobiles due to chip-shortage would seep into another hardware products sooner or later, In fact I was trying to validate whether there's a need to track 'What has been removed due to chip shortage'[1] and it seems like there's good reason to do it.

There's probably a limit to how much "work hard" can make someone competent/successful in any field, and it'd guess it's around 85, or 1 standard deviation lower than average.

If IQ is important to you, I think you'd be quite alarmed by the number of successful doctors and lawyers who don't meet the 100 IQ bar you're setting here.
Thanks for sharing! I'm somehow in the same situations struggling to find the right time slot (and motivation, because after work + parenting at the end of time I kind of feel tired) to work on my projects. I guess it's also important to keep the right balance between IT related work and non-IT stuff. Being in front of the laptop all day long is also not what I'm aiming for. Working in the garden, doing woodwork (in general using your hands rather than your brain) also helped to keep my inner balance and stay focused.
I was like full-time Linux desktop user for the 10 years, then switched to Mac and never looked back.

Linux had all the opportunities to be really good, but the development process was slow, hardware compatibility was a crap and occasionally I would loose a day or two after a postponed update (which got fixes already) to make it work again. I don't really understand why Canonical/Ubuntu dropped Gnome and worked 7 years for Unity, then switched back to Gnome again. 7 years developments and contributions to the Gnome could really make a difference.

The LX2160a can handle up to 130Gbps of network traffic. That is what it is designed for. You also have the benefit that the Quad SFP+ ports can be configured as a network switch completely offloaded from the CPU. That is what this SOC was designed for after all. :)
I’m not sure what is standard compensation for being on-call but at my previous place of work IT ops would do out of hours one week in four in return for one day off in-lieu. You’d get on average three call-outs a week which could be handled remotely. It still seemed like a very poor deal; I don’t know what is standard?

PWAs have limitations, yes. But you just mentioned how 2 of the biggest Electron users could not use Electron without sacrificing much if anything.

I think once you're in this other territory then you should consider full native instead of Electron. Why you choose to use an editor housed in a browser engine with tracking baked into the application is your decision. There are plenty of other native editors, both GUI and TUI, a user can choose.
Expected response time is a major difference, no? (although I guess for lawyers there might also be an expectation to move now if something urgent (police raid etc) is happening? not too familiar with how that looks and is agreed on in practice)
