I doubt Netflix could (easily) make a product that replicates linear network TV (as much as linear TV itself is kind of a shitty product, which I say as a defender of it here). Here's why:

(1) Based on what I've seen from spending many hours scrolling through their available content (or what the algorithm will show me of it, anyway!), I'm not actually sure Netflix could put that content together into a 24/7 program that resembles a linear TV channel, even given how repetitive and often shitty linear TV content is. I could definitely be wrong about this, but I think Netflix lacks both the dynamic breadth and thematic depth of content. On the "dynamic breadth": Linear TV is at least 95% repeats, but if you watch it one day and then watch it again 6 months later, the content in your latter watch will usually be totally disjoint from the first watch. Meanwhile whenever I go on Netflix I swear like 75% of what I'm shown is things they were showing me 2+ years ago. Maybe they could still assemble their content into a 24/7/365 schedule that mimics linear TV programming, but I wouldn't bet on that.

(2) A linear TV channel isn't just a bunch of shows concatenated one right after another. At a minimum it has interstitials between shows/segments telling you what's next and what's on later. These are what gives the channel its personality/brand, and I'd assume it takes at least a few full-time staff per 24/7 channel. Think Discovery Channel's "Shark Week". It was mostly a bunch of repeats of shows they already had that happened to be shark-related, but the interstitials for it marketed it into a national event. And, dare I say it...linear TV often has ads. Ads can be a nice part of TV (especially for shitty/campy TV) -- they're when you go to the bathroom, get a snack, and/or chat about what you just watched. Certainly not a required part of linear TV (HBO and BBC are good linear TV channels and don't have ads), but hard for Netflix in particular to recreate if they were aiming to replicate the full linear TV experience.

Honestly, this is such a common refrain in open-source communities.

"I'm going to use this product/project."

"You shouldn't use that, use this instead."

"But this product/project has all these features I want."

"Sure but you can just build and maintain those features yourself if you want. It's open source, after all!"

Or alternately:

"Well no one really needs those anyway, it's just people being told that they do."

I've been hearing this same refrain for over twenty years now. It seems as though some people don't understand that there's actual value in having a system that just works, rather than one that you have to build and maintain yourself just to emulate the system that works.

I didn’t berate him at all. I was yelling because he stopped a long way behind me, and I wanted to finish the conversation ASAP because of my bleeding family member. So I started as soon as he got out of the car.
and of course it makes it very easy to step into the "lying to an officer" trap or even more serious. You're willingly give up everything (if you aren't keen on playing the lottery of how annoyed that cop is today, or if you're of the race not fully afforded those nice Amendments what white people got to enjoy) and confirm that there is nothing more. Or may be that isn't all, and you're trying to remember the other accounts. You can't. You get nervous. Make a quick automatic movement to pull your phone from a pocket...

The problem with solutions bigger than `docker-compose up -d` and smaller than k8s is that they have a growth ceiling, real or imaginary. Sooner or later you will hit some limitation and will either thrash against it or have to upgrade to k8s. As a decision maker in an IT org, you can either:

- pick up Swarm or Nomad now, and then potentially be blamed for the expensive and costly migration to k8s
- pick up k8s now, waste the time of your (voiceless) devs and ops on an overengineered solution, but retain access to the larger pool of technologies and a smooth upgrade path should the need arise

I dunno when it happened but I linked coding to money instead of to enjoyment of coding.

If you ever see this edw519 thank you for the reminder :)
How so? His story is one in which he was relentlessly harassed, and in which his attempts to tolerate and reason with his opposition resulted in him being illegitimately forced out of the university. Despite that, his "outrage", if you can call it that, is hard to spot: his letter describing the reasons for his resignation explains why he's doing it, but is low on invective.
You can't use facts to refute superstition I'm afraid.
I can recommend against one type of bad sensors. VOC sensors paired with a temperature sensor that can generate “eCO2” value is known bad, such as CCS811/BME280 combo board.

Those sensors guesstimate CO2 concentration from air temperature and changes in ambient alcohol/acetone/hydrocarbon levels, which drifts into positive infinity and is simply do not correlate well with actual CO2 level.

Those sensors are dirt cheap, and can still be used as a rule of thumb to encourage regular ventilation, but are nothing more than that. If you want to actually see CO2 levels, avoid those.

It would make their jobs easier if they asked for all our money, too.

Thanks for the comment, supercollider is really neat! Also just learned about Tidal Cycles, a Haskell library that builds on SuperCollider with a higher level functional syntax.
It was a long road. I was always interested in crafting things and a curious child. My father has many books and I got interested in the ones about tech and such. But what really helps me is being capable of understanding the theory without the practice. We didn’t have any computer or access to the internet, but I was able to retain a lot of informations from my reading.

The actual path started when they bought a laptop for my brother for the university. It came with Windows 2000 and we paid a guy to install XP on it. I quickly became friends with him and learn how to install Windows myself and all the things that it entails. So when one of my close friend had his own laptop, I was mostly the one tinkering with it as I was the “computer expert” in the neighborhood. Then I stumbled into Blender (I was interested in visual arts) then Python after I learnt about the Blender Game Engine. One of the forums that did help me was “Le site du zero”. I was not that good in english and it was one of the best French forums for beginner. I learned Python, then C with their programs. Another good forums was “Comment Ca Marche.net”. They had this program that was basically a wiki with an overview of all the major aspects of computer science.

I went to do an electronic engineering degree. But the major time was spent learning more about computers, programming languages, and software engineering. I volunteered for a few projects (one of them got me a personal laptop). But my first paying job was through a friend and with that I realized that I could do it part time to earn some good money. That’s when I signed on Upwork and since then, I’ve worked on several projects that earned me more money than I could have made locally.

The journey was more eventful than that, but I think that captures the gist of it. I’m still working as a freelancer. It can get a little bit lonely (I work from home) but I don’t mind as the country is not that stable (I live in Haiti).
I agree that 3 hours on hannons (pattern excercices) on the piano a day might hold you back. But that's not playful. I built my own metronome. Disasemble the piano! Really. I admit that I will never be a good pianist, but have made good music, with others, on keys.
It is really difficult to be mindfull and conscious of your production. I try swapping modalities. Loop record some chords on top of euclidean rythms... Swap to the drums. Obviously the dilettante approach can also be a dead end. But I've been learning music, more and more this way for decades. I'll never be a virtuoso, but have recordings where I think, wow, was that really me? Does help to play with others who help 'carry' you.
I have a similar approach to software.

PS. I did have to save for the basement studio.

There's a difference of meaning here.

Original criticizer and I are saying that this person thinks that this event is free of regulation from the SEC because they're the wrong body.

Not free from all regulation. You misunderstand what I, and I think also they, have said.

> For you to have said you still agree with that assessment, even after clarification was made, was you being completely unreasonable.

Another possibility is that you've misunderstood the meaning?

I wish people would be less condemning in this thread.
This has to be my favorite thing in a while.

I've been doing small hobby iterations of gps nixie clocks for a decade. I'm using a pi in my latest iteration, but man this project really goes the distance. It does everything I want to do in my most ambitious vision of the project and then goes another 50% further. Really excellent stuff.
100% of platforms that Zig & Rust run on already have a C compiler installed, though. A c compiler being present is the baseline assumption. If Zig existed in places C doesn't and I wanted to write C for that platform then having Zig CC would be an advantage. But such a situation doesn't currently exist and seems unlikely to ever exist? Especially in the context of a library/module porting to Zig or Rust piecemeal, though, then I already obviously have a working C compiler & build toolchain in place since that's my start point.

I like Multipass a ton, but as with almost every Docker/VM/Linux config right now, support on the M1 Mac is mixed. (Yes, yes, I know Docker Desktop works on the M1 now. But not all container images do, some run emulated, some break, there are still lots of papercuts.) I’ve had some success with the most recent builds of Multipass, but it isn’t reliable.

For devs who still have access to an Intel Mac, I personally would still use that over an M1 for container/VM/Linux tasks. We’re only a year into the transition so that’s OK, but don’t be caught off guard if you move to an M1 and find your stuff breaking. Incidentally, this is where I find stuff like GitHub Codespaces really nice because I can offload the container bits to a different machine.
It should even be able to load mods without any issue right? If I recall correctly mod installation in minecraft is nothing more than placing some files in a folder?

Traefik, for example, handles certificates for your services. I've set it up this morning on our Docker Swarm at work, 5 domains are now served by it with automated ACME certificates.

> Almost all dishwashers in Europe use a cold water feed only, so running the hot tap won’t make any difference.

Ya, I think the same is true in America. Most residential hot water tanks do not produce potable water. So, it wouldn't make sense to rinse your clean dishes with water that may contain bacteria and spores. Of course, you don't want to rinse hot glass with cold water either (potential breakage), so now you have to heat the water. So, you may as well just have cold water as the only source and heat it.

It's the same reason coffee machines tell you to fill them with cold water -- it has nothing to do with the temperature of the water, it's all about the potability of the water.
He's in the social sciences. It makes sense he'd focus on that. It is possible to publish nonsense papers in STEM journals too, hence the stories about "tortured phrases" that cropped up a few weeks ago. However there's no particular reason a philosophy professor would be aware of those journals or have any motivation to explore their integrity; naturally he will focus on journals about subjects he understands better than e.g. electronics or medicine.
Web3 gives me immediate access to a global, always-on, completely decentralized market with absolutely no gatekeepers.

Money has always had gatekeepers. Sure, Stripe et al have made the barriers to entry lower, but they've only replaced legacy gatekeepers with newer ones. For the longest time, I couldn't even accept payments easily from US customers on my eCommerce site because Stripe wasn't available in my home country (and I'd seriously considered incorporating via Stripe Atlas just to get access to Stripe).

Crypto has no gatekeepers. There's no one I need to ask permission from to accept crypto from anyone, anywhere.

From my perspective, I can't understand why someone would not be bullish on crypto. It opens up a sector that impacts all of our lives - finance - but one we've strangely collectively decided to give up control over.

If you like the idea of an open and inclusive financial market, you'd be bullish on crypto. If you don't, you can safely ignore it and carry on with your life.
I'm not a citizen of the US so I don't really have a horse in this race (about "gun rights") but I am curious about your comment. I don't understand how the right to bear arms has kept police from killing any Americans in 2019 and how it will keep them from killing more in 2021. Can you explain?

I also don't understand how citizens of the US are meant to protect themselves against police with the weapons they're free to carry. Is the idea that US citizens are going to use their weapons to resist the police from arresting them? Isn't that just going to cause no end of bloodshed?

The ARC reactor design has 10x the volumetric power density of ITER.

Unfortunately, the ARC design also had 40x worse power density than a PWR primary reactor vessel.
> larger hurdle than scaling things after everything is in production

The relevant data points we have on this are from Tesla. Elon has been beating the "scaling production is the hardest thing" drum. His callouts around the cost of design vs manufacturing are quite interesting.

Now Toyota has been in the at-scale manufacturing game a long time, so perhaps they're just better at this. Either way battery capacity will hold them back for a decade.

The investments we're seeing in batteries (LG, Philips, Tesla, VW) are 10x+ what Toyota is doing. I don't see how this results in Toyota able to ship cars in volume as the transition to electric accelerates.
I can't see why you're confused, since your second sentence is the basis of the entire story.

When I was 14, Turbine Games released a patch to Asheron's Call which broke Decal for a few months. Decal is/was a framework for developing and running plugins for the game. These plugins could do anything in the game that the player could.

One such plugin at the time was ElTank. ElTank was primarily a combat macro. It would hunt and loot for you. But since decal broke, so did ElTank.

I still wanted something to play the game in this way for me. So I found another tool, ACTool. ACTool was a scripting environment which was normally able to hook into decal but it didn't require it for some basic things.

I spend a days learning the ACTool language and managed to put together a VERY crude botting system that would be (poorly) navigate through one specific dungeon. Only one dungeon since I had to hard code my route. It would also manage my vitals -- health, stamina, and mana. Additionally, it was able to keep me buffed and log out if I died.

I managed to do all of that by pixel scraping. Based on the color of specific ranges of pixels I could do some pretty nifty things.

This was the first time ever programmed anything and it was SO hard and SO rewarding.

At this time, I didn't even realize that Software Engineering was a career path. And if it was I didn't think I would be able to make it through an engineering degree because of the math requirements.

Fast-forward to age 19. Engineering wasn't even a consideration, neither was school. I joined the Navy instead.

My Navy rating had me doing some linux system administration stuff and I thought that was really cool. At the same time, a friend of mine wanted to do a Java class at the local Community College and didn't wan't to do it alone, so I did it with him. And it was so much fun that I decided that I was going to become a software engineer. SO when I finished the Navy I focused all of my energy towards college. When I graduated I was able to line up a job.
Vertical integration like that sounds good, but often ends up a distraction. Toyota tends to be more of we do the Engine and frame, and outsource the rest.
I worked at A Thinking Ape (another YC alumni), and for the longest time we had people beating down our door to invest, but the founders always told us why they weren't going to take it: we didn't need money. We had money to run the business, but we didn't have a handle on what we would do with $10m or $100m. What do we need to do to get more users that stick around and generate profit? More and better advertising? Sponsoring YouTube content creators? Hiring 50 more developers? Acquiring other companies?

Without a clear idea of what specifically you need to spend money on, and how specifically you are going to spend that money to generate growth and value, taking money is a bad idea. And if the answer to that question is "so that we can keep paying our developers", then you're probably already doomed.
Oracle and VMware per-socket licensing is one of the main reasons server-class CPUs have gazillions of cores. A vSphere licence+support for a single machine can easily run into 5 figures.
I'm not sure I like this. It's a laptop, but if 2 years from now I want to upgrade its CPU, will there be a compute module that fits? It's matches the expandability of a MacBook with the beauty of a Dell Vostro - not a hugely attractive proposition.

Good you can make it faster, if Intel decides to make a compatible module in the future.

Do different PM2.5 components affect the body differently, even for the same overall count?

Eg, are the PM2.5 particulates from burning toast comparable in bodily health impact to a similar PM2.5 count coming from a heavy Diesel engine’s exhaust (which I presume would have a different particulate makeup).
