I've noticed that effect, but I don't think the problem is on the installer side. A big part of the cost for them is the "soft costs" and a part of that is dealing with sometimes intransigent personnel at power companies. There are horror stories of them needing to pester the company for months to get the final approval to energize the system, and that adds significant cost. The solar companies would love to get rid of this problem.

I don't think that I'd want someone that isn't a licensed roofer or electrician doing the installation work anyway.
I think a Ring Modulator might have some equivalence. Depending on the frequency you set it to the ability to accurately detect the frequency of the input notes can diminish quite drastically.
Indeed - context of how we've gotten here is VERY important.

One of the better ST:TNG episodes was about this very topic: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0708841/
I consider progress to be getting closer to technology that gets us out of the unsustainable ecological/biosystems hole which we have dug for ourselves.

We are not going to put the technological genie back in the bottle, short of eliminating 98+% of all humans and reverting back to hunter-gatherer tribes.

The only solution is to go through this dirty technology cycle and build and implement clean sustainable technologies that allow us to live with something resembling current populations without destroying the climate system, breaking the food web, or poisoning ourselves (& everything else).

So, yes, the only thing worse than halting all progress now would be to do it a decade age before solar, wind, etc. became viable, but we need a lot more progress, i.e., better performance for lower costs - both ecological & economical - for most of our technologies, and eliminating those destructive technologies. That would be progress.

Some people here actually want and need Docker features. For me it's the ability to run from a given image and know that I've got _exactly_ the same image that other developers have. Reproducibility.

Well, I hadn't heard of podman until now, and I imagine I'm not the only one. Does it consistently have functional parity with docker?
I thought this too until I looked at US presidential electoral maps for the past century, and then ran across a study of political division in the US that showed a dramatic increase beginning around 1980. (Don't have a link handy unfortunately.) It seems the degree and nature of division in the US really has changed in a fundamental way.

Even if they are cold - they are your guest, why is it so cold and why haven't you turned the heat up? I think was the implication.
Sure, why not? I have no problem with counting machines that aren't actually used to produce the official count.

Doing manual counts only when it's close isn't good enough though, as that leaves you open to a vulnerability where the attacker simply arranges for it to not be close.
Notice that the reports in your first link of PTFE coatings breaking down at less than 260 deg C are anecdotal. The lowest temperature at which PTFE coatings have been verified to give off breakdown products is 240 deg C. Even then, the only detected product was PTFE sublimate (small particles of PTFE flying off), which can lead to what we call "fume fever" if it's inhaled in large quantities, but reports of this happening in real life are rare, even in factory workers who are exposed at higher levels.

PTFE is chemically stable well past 300 deg C (540 deg F) and many nonstick cookware lines are marketed for these temperatures. For example, I have Calphalon pans labelled for use up to 550 deg F, which are advertised for searing steak. I get them pretty hot, and they show no signs of degradation.

At around 360 deg F (650 deg F), PTFE starts to give off detectable pyrolysis products, which are theoretically able to cause health problems, but even then reports of actual harm are few and far between. This is remarkable given that billions of pieces of nonstick cookware have been in use every day around the world for the past seventy years. Between the end users and the factory workers who make stuff, and all of the accidents and episodes of overheating that occur all the time, if there were going to be significant health effects I think they'd show up by now.

The real problem is the PFAS chemicals that are sprayed on our clothes, upholstery, carpeting and other home furnishings, that the military and civilian airports have dumped in our water supplies. This is a shaping up to be a true environmental catastrophe, and the manufacturers of nonstick coatings have no doubt contributed to this pollution. But the teflon cookware itself is not the slightest threat.

Oh, I agree and I have nothing against the subsidies getting scaled back over time. The issue is that it makes cost cutting in the industry less effective, as the savings don't always get directed to the buyer's bottom line.

I think it might create a long stall where solar doesn't really expand that much in consumer markets.
It used to be called shareware.
Time zone. For whatever reason, and not for lack of looking, there aren't really development ecosystems like India/Pakistan/Estonia/Slovakia/... in south and central america.
I guess that goes to show there's a wide range of needs and desires in the market.

I've been wearing the same line of tennis shoes for a handful of years. Outside of work boots for projects, I wear the tennis shoes for almost every other event and task, breaking out dressy black shoes a handful of times per year.

They run around $65 unless I find a deal. That shoe is adequate for my needs and budget, fits well, and the variations from year to year are minimal. I'm hesitant to deviate away from something I know works well.

I've never found a pair of Nike tennis shoes that are comfortable. Nike shoes would probably be more expensive than my go-to pair, but I'm sure for some people my tennis shoes would be really uncomfortable.

All that said, I am considering trying a pair of Allbirds. I'm 4 hours from their nearest store, and have never bought a pair of shoes online, so I may swing by next time I'm in Minneapolis.
Usually because of the terms of service.

That said the fastest way to a resolution is often exactly this. Either get a lawyer to send a letter saying you're gonna file in court, or just file for arbitration yourself.

If money on that scale is at stake, this is a comparatively cheap way to make sure a real human looks at the problem.

Enable WSL2, then you can just install the docker provided by your distro package manager. For example, I am using docker packaed by Arch Linux, and it works as expected.

If you need to use `docker` command under Powershell, maybe exposing docker socket to Windows host would probably work. I didn't try it as I don't need it.
I don't know why anyone needs this. But I think it's awesome.

I think my favorite one of these is …

Robert Heinlein wrote in an essay ("Paul Dirac, Antimatter, And You") that he believes that Paul Dirac believed until his death that the gravitational constant G is decreasing slightly over time, and that he thinks Dirac was right. Is there evidence for or against this proposition?

Is there an OS that offers reasonable user experience with modern software on just 2GB ram? And with reasonable I mean using browser like Chrome and few of electron apps...

I use it on my Fedora dev machine and it's pretty good. Still wouldn't replace a mission critical machine with it, as it isn't the primary target for docker containers to run on and it can break more easily.
THIS. Don't paper over the issues with shadow IT. Make them painfully obvious to the point where IT has to do something or answer to it. Otherwise it will not change.

I've given teams the option to turn off their pagers when this sort of thing happens with the justification that they can't fix it anyway. And then documented the crap out of why they can't fix it so when someone asks I can point to existing policy. It's very effective if done right.
I don't get it. There still seems to be a free version, which includes bundled docker engine, right? I think this is the only part of docker desktop that most devs need. Private repos were always a paid feature AFAIK.

You implied the corruption was inevitable. Either the endowment fund is corrupt already, or your assertion about 'inevitable' is meaningless.

History is filled with lots of examples of corruption. Including in free markets.

You were referring to the existence of a years-long waiting list, as if it were a meaningful evidence they should raise rents in order to avoid the artificial scarcity you think is universally bad.

So true. I read an article ago where they studied aging and they found that everything about a person degrades, eyesight, strength, cognition, etc with the exception of impulse control and patience. As you age, you mellow out and are less tethered to knee jerk reactions.

For me, as someone approaching 'early geezerdom', I see it in my work interactions. What used to bother me, I can now let pass.
Docker Registry already is unusable. Now Docker GUI. Not sure that something will be left after upcoming improvements.
My thought as well.

If I have to tweet-storm to get someone to look at my support ticket, there is no real support.
The object tag is problematic because it has a single interface for every supported content type. Want to expose functionality? Can't, unless it's a param that is passed as a string. Having a dedicated element type enables it to be used in many ways (like drawing images to a canvas) that an object tag does not support.

It's also hardly a case of NIH to update a spec with a more specific element than another one in the same spec. We've done this numerous times in the last decade. The object tag isn't an X3D concept.

There is a Docker Desktop for Linux? What does it do?

Why would I go out of my way to set up Docker differently on my dev machine compared to my servers? That seems like a recipe for failure.

Engineering needs product management. This isn't cheap or easy to do when you're offshoring for cost.
I've had this experience myself. Actually, your description is so much kinder than mine that I think I will adopt it. What I have said up until now is that as I've gotten older, my emotional level has declined very substantially, especially in the last ten years. It's like the volume got turned down. Very few things bother me, and very few things excite me. I'd associated it until now with a sort of depersonalization but instead I will identify as just being the thing that passes through different states of being.

They're kind of the same thing, but I'd feel less weird saying it the way you did.

> In October 2019, we entered into a 36-month contract with AWS for hosting-related services. Pursuant to the terms of the contract, we are required to spend a minimum of $15 million within each contract year for three years. As of December 31, 2020, we had $17 million remaining on the commitment.

Sure, but we are still talking about bands of _frequencies_, not sets of harmonics (although there are colours that are not pure). So it would correspond to identifying 440 Hz with a tolerance of N Hz.

And we are not talking about colour naming, we are talking about colour perception. So the situation would be "here's a particular green colour, please find a patch from this heap that has the same colour."

I mean, just because the word "green" is very broad doesn't mean we can't _see_ the difference.

This data is incredible. I cannot believe how the most powerful/richest/most influential country in the world has these kinds of numbers. I notice that it tends to follow a standard distribution but even then, I was expecting the window to be more towards highly educated.

This is so depressing. I have been wondering for a while as to why ~40 percent of the country rarely if ever votes in elections. This might help to explain it.

This also shows that technology people are amassing an unbelievable amount of power in their knowledge of how these systems work and operate given that the masses don't know how to weld that knowledge.
The Docker experience is (and has been) subopar on MacOS. With the way Apple Silicon is headed, I don't really have much faith that the situation is going to get better, and I really wonder if the Mac client is even a priority for them at this point.
Post-Covid, I tend to agree. If people continue to work from home, rather than in an office, then the in-person spin class and other in-person activities could actually surge in popularity, since people will want more in-person interaction.
trey-jones, I apologize, but I cannot reply to you directly.

The biggest showstopper for podman is that it runs entirely in userspace on Linux. Having said that, I use it as a drop-in replacement for Docker and it's only become better in the past year. This is somewhat irrelevant to the Docker Desktop product, as podman doesn't provide a nice packaged up solution, but you can use podman on Windows and Mac as long as you have a Linux host available, either as a guest VM or as a machine _elsewhere_ on the network, see [1]. I only use Linux if I can, and the ability to run images without having to run a daemon with root privileges is a very big bonus for me, but it might not be for you. Now I do wonder, how hard would it be to declare a minimal nixOS VM for running as one's podman host :)

I've never dual-booted my pixelbook, but using Crostini doesn't affect the trackpad because it is using ChromeOS as the host.

I've heard that GalliumOS (based on Xbuntu) uses the ChromeOS trackpad drivers and works well, but I've never had the time to mess with it.
>Seems that some people just entirely miss that part of their upbringing

I think it's worse than that: they get too much shock and awe beatings/ unpredictable rage from parents who were raised the same. It's a cycle/ disease. "My parents hit me and I turned out fine" is often a revealing statement. And a defense of parents who may not deserve it but coping with that is harder.
Ah ok, that's simply an optical illusion. The brain is full of pre-processing that you can mess with in order to trick it to see things that aren't there and to shift colors around as well as to play with figure-background. But that is a case of 'bad faith', you could do the same for audio illusions, it wouldn't help to draw any further equivalence between the visual and the auditory system.

Both work on the perception of waves with a certain periodic repetition but there the equivalence ends, there is no such thing as 'timbre' in vision, we simply don't work with harmonics there and the shape of the wave in sound is very important and non existent in vision (you can see a single photon in sufficiently dark adapted conditions, your eye as a fundamental particle detector!).
I've found Docker Desktop to be equally awful with Windows. You'd think they'd care about giant swathes of the market like that.
This poster has clearly worked at the same kind of companies I have. Plenty of them would gladly burn 10x what it would cost to just buy the damn license on engineering man-hours switching something that's inferior but free. Because it doesn't show up as an expense on the annual budget.

The concept of opportunity cost is completely lost on a lot of business leaders.
Ask HN: Is Spring Boot still the first choice for Java Back end development?
Recently for new job I was told that they don't use Spring boot for development. I am not senior developer but I have been learning Spring boot extensively and for me it makes sense as it gives me structure to write my code and also so many Spring Project and lot of material available. Are you guys(Java People) still using Spring Boot as first choice for Backend development or something drastically changed since few years? Thanks for help :)
