I am not a 10x engineer or a linux wizard.

I wish someone would rewrite docker-compose in a single go or rust binary so that I don't have to deal with the python3 crypto package being out of date or something when simply configuring docker/docker-compose for another user (usually me on a different machine or new account).
I also don't see much DDOS proofing in this. Best I can find is that you can unpeer people, but since every message is rebroadcasted by everyone, that doesn't seem like much of a protection. Especially since, if the DDOSer has a lot of peers, it seems can be pretty imposible to know who the attacker even is, since there is no singed journal of hops or something.
I would not go into radial menu unless it is some kind of specialist app. I would cut it down to left/right up/down - yes tinder is quite binary and does not have "maybe" as an option.

Still you have to build database of choices which will cost quite some money.

Tinder has this upside that their database of choices is building on its own.
I'd have to agree with you, as this lawsuit was a PR play more than anything, especially if it means they don't get their App back on the app store (yet?).
I don't know. I just want countermeasures against the dystopian technology we'll be facing in the future. If some device tries to image me or my home without my consent, they shouldn't get any useful information.

Maybe a signals jammer? Maybe some wall material that blocks signals outside our homes? Custom firmware for our WiFi access points to ensure they aren't doing this, or ensure that they do it in our terms and for our own use instead of some surveillance capitalism nightmare?
OSHA is in the executive branch, under the president, who we voted for.
The fact is Linux containers are probably hotter than anything else. Almost every enterprise are using them to some larger extent, and Kubernetes has become the platform of choice.

Is vanilla Kubernetes easy for new developers? No, but there is an entire ecosystem offering tools and platforms to make development using containers a seamless as possible. Microsoft saw this, so they really had no choice but to adopt the container terminology and partner with Docker to try to stay relevant.

My guess is without containers, Microsoft would have never even built WSL. If you want smooth developer experience with containers then that is what solutions like GitLab offer. Even Microsoft's GitLab is essentially built around running various actions inside containers.

I personally welcome the change. I can spin up a local Kubernetes cluster and test an entire cluster of applications locally if I want, or integrate it into Skaffold or whatever else and test live in the cloud. It really is a lot better than what we had before. I think the solutions though really come down to documentation and resources to help train new employees and acclimate them.
On the other hand, I love how apple lets me use a visa gift card purchased in cash at the local convenience store. When trying to pay for a VPN service anywhere but the app, they reject the card, but Apple let me use it to purchase the subscription.
I think Powershell gets you part of the way down this road, at least on some of these features, without requiring you to figure out everything/adopt everything first. Out of the box it works fine as a Unix shell (you know, invokes commands, pipes output, etc.).

Everything's not rosy-hunky-dory, each of these have limitations but:

> Can I get a parseable ls?

> Can I get explicit output-as-json flags for all reasonable commands like ps, lsblk, ls, find, grep, etc?

Better than "parseable", you get commands which just return the structured data, for ls (gci), and many other "foundation" commands like ps (gps), etc. I didn't actually think about a structured grep but maybe you wouldn't use it as much with stuff like ConvertFrom-Csv (so you have structured data to select rather than strings to "grep"). Anything you can get JSON or YAML or CSV output from you can just turn into structured data (ConvertFrom-Json) and handle in the same way. Any native Powershell implementation of anything will emit complex data in the same way (e.g. AWS's Powershell tools).

> Can I get a database of commands better than history that shows when they were run and error codes that resulted AND THE OUTPUT, and if it completed for multithreaded/background/etc.

Background job handling is a lot better with Powershell than with bash and allows you to address background jobs by id, get metadata about them and the output, with rcjb (Receive-Job). Your job list is manipulatable with the same Powershell tools as everything else, so you can sort and select easily on things like status or the host on which it executed.

> Can I get a reasonable metashell standard across all terminal apps for doing a lot of what .profile does but isn't tied to a specific file on a specific machine?

It's an interesting idea, hard for me to conceive. Do you mean shell and command configurations that go along with your shell session to other machines? Powershell remoting allows you to establish a session and then mix local and remote commands while retaining your setup and environment, it may partly help. The gotcha: you need to enable the SSH configuration which allows this and (of course) have Powershell installed on the target systems.
It shouldn't have to be a wake up call. Employees should understand that you don't use work devices for personal stuff. I've seen so many people get fired because they were caught looking at pr0n on their work computer/phone. It's just dumb.

Ah, I see
I agree with this part - if you can show you have antibodies, I don't care where you got them from (well, I would have preferred they were gotten from a vaccine, but that's besides the point now!).

My only stipulation is that if you say you had it, you need to have an antibody test to prove it, and if the test is negative, you need a vaccine.
This is a huge one for me. I jot down random notes as I go. Some are very descriptive and detailed. Others are as simple as "things of this shape seem to have this property." Just getting it written down seems to help solidify things more quickly. I rarely re-read these notes.
Because that requires tremendous capital and labor costs, overhauling HVAC in every private and public building would take years, there aren’t enough electricians and tinners/pipefitters. HVAC equipment is also very expensive and most public institutions have already budgeted for capital costs. Who will pay for it all?

>How do you know that I would save peanuts while someone else has to pay disproportionately more?

The point is, no insurance is just going to say you pay next to nothing because of... Instead, they will say you are in the lowest risk category, and here's your rate.

>Why subsidize the latter 3 and not tobacco?

Big Tobacco was sued and lost in court, so they are easy to "pick on". Nobody has sued Big Sugar. We've already seen what strict rules on alcohol does to the country, and doubtful anyone is ready to do that again.
Strictly speaking, retail games are also part of the same platform. Game consoles have the same lockout policies Apple does - in fact, they were literally invented decades prior to the iPhone by console manufacturers. You still have to pay a platform royalty on physical copies; except now you also have to throw margin to distributors and retailers, too; and the games can be resold without you making a penny.
Lots of nuance that can’t fit into a single thread.
ah, I didn't realize email attachment size was holding me back.
As a user, Apples is the best and easiest payment system.

I’ll frequently not buy from sites that want registration and card info because of the hassle.

I’ll probably end up using things I already have accounts with (amazon, Google, steam) but will never buy from apps that require me to sign up with them to buy stuff. I already hate registering with companies to play games.
Not all forests, obviously. But the ones that people are generally hiking in, the trails are maintained. Not many people go off trail.
Nothing in this injunction prevents Apple from requiring that if apps offer purchase options they must also offer IAP as an option.

I'm certain that even if the injunction were to go into force, Apple would continue to require that.

Apple could probably even mandate that the other purchase options not be cheaper than IAP pricing by more than apple's 30%, preventing developers from putting absurd prices on the IAP option, and only put real prices on their alternative methods. from the wording of the injunction itself is not even actually clear that apple cannot mandate the IAP and non IAP prices must be the same (the dicta might provide more clarity on if that would be permissible).

Then it becomes up to you if whatever discount is offered for non IAP purchases is worth the extra risks, or if you would rather use IAP.
I think there is quite cutthroat competition there already financed by people who own travel agencies.

You probably don't have a chance as an outsider.
Beside the regular complaints or praises I find oracle extremely ugly, unaesthetic and inconsistent. I understand it is old and has backwards compatibility but why would anyone choose oracle over a newer modern RBDMS such as PostgreSQL or MSSQL for a new project? Besides, Oracle is very expensive and very hard to get rid of.

It is also a bit of an issue that they don't have a default IDE, I worked with Rapid SQL which is a clunky, slow and riddled with bugs IDE. I think the Rapid part of its name is pure gaslighting.
>"Do you really need enemies when you have such a government looking out for your well being?"

Governments (via their agents) of the 20th century killed more than 7x more people than were murdered by fellow civilians. This is not counting wars.
I value liberty, but I also recognize that there are situations where action (and when needed, mandates) for the good of the collective outweigh individual liberties.

Unless you choose to live in the woods disconnected from everything and everyone, you are directly benefitting from the modern and civilized society we live in. If you want to continue participating in and benefitting from it, you'll need to cooperate from time to time. The government is giving you an easy out here - don't want the vaccine? Don't participate in a specific portion of societal life (working at a company with 100+ employees.) It's pretty simple.

Any argument that getting a free vaccine is even a sacrifice is a slap in the face of anyone who has died of a communicable disease or can't access a vaccine today.

I also can't help but recognize that the people who are always railing about any perceived loss of liberty do so very selectively. What have you done, and where have you spoken out about abortion rights being trampled on in Texas? Not saying that you can't choose your issues like everyone else does, but don't pretend that you are defending "liberty".
Unless Texas manages to repeal the 1st Amendment, they won't succeed in telling private companies what to publish.

I think this can be said about a lot of professional level skills. They are hard, and most people can’t do them.
A pure ASR analog of this is how many/how much continuous utterances it enables. When I use tools like the one lunixbochs builds (including his own) the challenge as a user is trading of doing little bits at a time (slow, but easier to go back and correct) vs saying a whole ‘sentence’ in one go (fast and natural but you’re probably going to have to go back and edit/try again).

Sentence/command error rate (rate of 100% correct sentences/commands that don’t need any editing or re-attempting) is a decent proxy for this. It’s no silver bullet, but it more directly measures how frustrated your users will be.

If you really wanted to take care of the issues in the article, you could interview a bunch of users and find what percent of the, would go back and edit each kind of mistake (if 70% would have to go back and change ‘liked’ to ‘like’ then it’s 70% as bad as substituting ‘pound’ for ‘around’ which presumably every user will go back and edit).

The infuriating thing as a user is when metrics don’t map to the extra work I have to do.
fun fact: if youve ever wondered why performance benchmarks dont really seem to exist between things like mysql or postgres and Oracle, its because this is expressly forbidden in your license.
The Tesla has somehow gotten 2 flats in 3 years / 50k miles. I attribute that to racking up commute miles on heavily travelled/littered urban freeways. First one, used roadside, wheel+tire delivered to us but it took an hour as it was in the middle of rush hour. Still had to sort out the original tire and return the loaner from Tesla. (tow company they contract with stocks Tesla loaners, I guess). The other was going low slowly, caught by TPMS, just dealt with it at my leisure.

Other car without a spare, had a flat once in 15 years, it was sitting in my driveway, dealt with it in the usual way.

Other other car without a spare came with runflats but I replaced with "normal" tires. I carry a plug kit and a compressor, and pray?

But normally, AAA or similar. I have roadside through my insurance and also separate AAA coverage. On long trips I try to make sure I have cash to pay local helpers/tow trucks/etc.
> Ever since Docker (+ Kubernetes and various cloud specific container solutions) became so popular, a lot of devs now at least partially deal with this on a regular basis.

But that’s in line with the whole premise of DevOps, right? That the strict separation between dev and ops is a bad thing, and it’s good that devs get involved with ops and vice versa.

I don’t think this has to do with containers per se, but they do help a lot with that goal.
You'll get no argument from me that Apple's system is pretty good from a consumer standpoint — that's the primary reason why I predicted that it'd remain popular. It's really nice knowing that you can nuke a subscription without getting some dark patterns trying to talk you out of it.

On the other hand, it's really easy to imagine that you'd see something like “$9.99 IAP; $7.99 direct from Epic/Amazon/Google/Netflix/et al.”, especially when it's a company they already deal with and don't have a negative impression of.

The big question I'd have is whether that's possible or the other terms require price parity — and whether they'd be able to do something like offer bonus content, rewards clubs, etc. to nudge people toward their own store. I'd be somewhat surprised if, for example, Epic couldn't entice a fair number of people with some kind of in-game skin or other loot which they could argue has a resale value of $0.
You're reaching. The general public doesn't have access to Apple's company calendar, so it's not doxxing. If some other employee looked up the slot and leaked a name, then that would be doxxing on the part of the other employee.
That's a rather inflammatory way of putting it... but you're not wrong. As things currently stand, Libreboot is effectively just a fork of Coreboot with support for any x86 hardware newer than 2008 or so removed (because newer hardware requires non-free binaries which Libreboot refuses to touch). Short of a major change in Intel/AMD policy, I don't see any realistic way this will ever change -- which guarantees that Libreboot will only become more and more irrelevant as time goes on.

this seems ridiculous.

does this mean that if disney resorts open up to third party vendors (assuming they haven't already), they can't require them to accept the disney payment wristband?

apple is not a monopoly, nor is it anticompetitive. it is, however, opinionated and differentiates itself in the marketplace with that opinionation. there are less opinionated, yet very competitive alternatives and both users and developers are free to switch to them.
> I'm curious, what's the FOSS alternative to NextDNS you’re developing?

Well, NextDNS is the gold-standard. We are merely building as much as we can but our motive is to remain serverless, so as to be zero-maintenance.

This question reminded me of one of my favorite pg essays title "How You Know" http://www.paulgraham.com/know.html which is generally about how you acquire and retain information over time. A great short read if you have not done so before.
All it says to me is federal antitrust guidelines are outdated and California's are not.

We need strong federal antitrust enforcement. This only worked because Apple is based in California, which has stricter rules.
> I feel thoroughly alienated from my peer-group and family over their fervor for this response and against any who disagree.

Join the club. You really do need to start speaking out though. This shit has gone on long enough. The idea that it is impossible well intentioned, well reasoned person to object to any part of our current situation is complete rubbish. We are being gaslit and bullied and quite honestly I'm tired of it.
Universal conscription, 'total war' efforts, etc, have crossed class divides for the better part of a couple of centuries and are still in wide use so that theory doesn't seem to have quite the explanatory power you're suggesting.
It's the cheapest, easiest option. Of course it's going to be the default. Anything they say about interdepartmental communication is secondary to the reality of saving a bunch of money just cramming desks into an empty space.

Technically tinder is already more than binary, as upswipe is a different form of positive swipe than right swipe. It works there. Theres really no reason that throwing a picture to one of the four corners cant work.
> except it's not really since you can kill other people if you're not vaccinated.

Not if they are vaccinated. I don't understand why vaccinated people give a hoot about the vaccination status of others. Vaccinations protect them from severe covid issues.

Everybody is gonna get covid. We knew this all the way back in march of 2020.
These days I can never tell what people mean when they say white supremacist. So often I take it literally and it turns out to be implying some kind of ethereal nuanced phenomenon or social boogeyman rather than someone who actually actively claims white people are some kind of supreme race.

In my town there was a local scandal of sorts where some people got exposed as promoting white nationalism but then they were called white supremacists in all the reporting.

I got some very aggressive responses when I suggested that Japan is historically very Japanese nationalist but that doesn’t mean they think Japanese people are a supreme race.

There must be some sliding scale correlating nuance with hostility, it makes things very confusing to understand and discuss. I’ve even seen people lately claim that striving to always do better and improve your life or maintain a high standard of living or make a better life for your kids is actually racist!

That being said, does anyone know what they actually mean by white supremacist in this article?
Alternatively in a parallel universe,
Apple will transparently price their other "services" basis the actual cost incurred such as number of reviews they do, number of downloads, OTAs, number of IAPs/ recurring subscriptions etc, and developers can figure out the best mechanism for their user case.
I don't know if it's the correct talk, but those ideas are explored in "How NOT to Measure Latency by Gil Tene: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lJ8ydIuPFeU
Not sure about the GP, but for me, it's a pretty big difference jumping from tools like docker to ones like buildah, microk8s— I feel like k8s really makes good on many of the original promises of the "container revolution" in terms of automatic provisioning/scaling/image lifecycle management, declaratively defining relationships between containers, adding a much needed upper layer of abstraction in terms of the pod, etc.

I know docker has made it part of the way there over the years with Compose and so on, but it's all felt pretty ad-hoc, whereas k8s feels like a cohesive system designed against a clear vision (which makes sense, since it was designed as borg 2.0)— no one else working in this space had the benefit of having already built a giant system for it and used it at scale for years beforehand.
Oh, trust me, I know that this is a self-inflicted problem — we have too many people who subscribe to conspiracy theories about things like the “mark of the beast”. It's just somewhat impressive to see how effectively companies created a new category of crime to direct attention away from their negligence.
I found this video interesting for its approachability (my parents would understand it) but also for the final third that considers why Bitcoin or crypto in general would generate such a fervent, cultish following.

Now the source is clearly left-biased (its essentially a channel made to directly counter PragerU) but with that caveat this video saliently put to words a sort of nebulous unease I've had with crypto.
This wouldn't be an issue if credit card providers offered a standardized system for making subscription charges. When you sign up, you'd pre-authorize them to charge your card a certain amount per time period. You could revoke the authorization through your credit card company's website, along with your other subscriptions. If the service wanted to change the price, they'd need a you to re-authorize it.
I agree, as someone who likes a lot about Python (particularly its wide selection of libraries), the whitespace sensitivity is annoying.

However, it seems like part of the language that could conceivably be removed in future versions if defending it wasn't such a priority for many.
Cheers for the advice!
Honestly that's bad db design anyways. If empty string is a valid value then you don't want NOT NULL anyways. This is a table structure constraint, not a variable declaration. NOT EMPTY would have been a better syntax imo but that's a whole can of worms.
>If that's an edge case, y'all are wrong.

I don't want to pay an extra 30%, and have that 30% taken away from the devs who actually deserve the money, because _some_ might make it hard to cancel.

Most would likely just have a Paypal button same as 90% of websites if that makes you feel better.
MSDN isn't terrible, but for answers.microsoft.com 90% of questions are some outsourced foreign support rep telling the user to run sfc /scannow and not looking into the issue any further. Which makes it a huge pain for sysadmin type stuff, their developer documentation is much better.
Yeah; and on-board tire pressure monitoring was mandated in the US as of 2007, so typically you'll catch it before it's an issue.

I guess they figure few enough people know what they're doing, feel safe doing it at the side of the road without an emergency vehicle with lights watching out for them, using a janky scissor or bottle jack, and the problems are rare enough that why bother?

And then most peoples' spare tires were never checked so they're underinflated/rotted and unsafe anyway.

In most cases, if I got a flat in a car with a spare, I wouldn't replace it at the roadside with my spare anyway. I'd do.. something else. Get a free tow from AAA to the tire shop (because I'll need to get my tire fixed ANYWAY), get a ride home and get a real jack,... but not use an unsafe trunk kit jack on the side of a freeway.
