I have been using desktop applications for more than 30 years and web for more than 20 years now. I loathe web based applications as the next guy but can appreciate the convenient it provides.

As anything in life, it comes like a cycle and and after web it will probably be desktop again with a twist. Most likely a desktop with local-first software paradigm [1]. That will not happen until the two important issues are solved, firstly seamless distributed data replication and security.

The first issue can probably be solved by Commutative Replicated Data Type (CRDT) and/or Operational Transformation (OT) but not merely for editors but also for more general applications [2].

The second security issue could be solved by enabling working seamlessly for offline and online, and it will probably adhere to the zero trust architecture [3]. Personally I'm working on trying to solve on this issue now, and the Global Area Networking (GAN) initiatives for examples ZeroTier and Tailscale are going in the right direction.

Hm, all most all of them are horrible. It's so impressive to me that we still proclaim Sparta as something worthwhile of praise when it was an awful inhumane culture and society that didn't even last that long.
It's fixable with a license change, but in practice that's impossible for large projects. Without a CLA, every individual who's contributed is a copyright owner. If you can't get every single one of them to agree to change it, then the license is stuck. And it doesn't matter if the reason you can't get them to agree is because they've become uncontactable or died.
So with Heorku, if an app has one dyno and that dyno doesn't receive any traffic in 1 hour, the dyno goes to sleep. Does Appliku have a similar thing or does it stay online longer?
I've been using Ansible's Docker module to manage my containers in my homelab, and I've been meaning to switch it to Docker-Compose for a while now, because it's kind of a pain to have to wait for the playbook to run for simple container changes (among other annoyances).

Overall, though: Traefik proxying to Docker Containers has been _very_ smooth in my Homelab: I'm loving it.

There is nothing about fusion that makes it essential for putting carbon back into the ground.

> I have seen the two authorization approaches get co-mingled, which leads to issues.

Correct, for me this is a must avoid at all costs. I can't imagine how hard / complex it is to manage / audit two authorization system. Unless your application need more detailed permission / smaller scope, example later.

Personally I just use the one that comes from the identity provider. In my case, keycloak's model is sufficient for my use case.

And you're right, scopes are hard and unless it's global scope, you'll need to roll your own. One good example case is github/gitlab. Global scope is the administrator access, and it's easy to set it in identity provider (as "administrator" access maybe).

However for each group / repository level, you'll need to roll your own validation.

EDIT: More often than not, it comes into business domain than technical / programming one. If you're not experienced with the business domain, no wonder you'll find it hard.
The whole station is monitored from the ground, and the smoke alarms were presumably still functional. If the crew couldn't do anything useful in the moment, and the danger is over (and any return of the danger will be immediately noticed) then not interrupting their sleep any further seems like a rational choice.

You can imagine that while the crew are sleeping, people on the ground are giving some consideration to where the smoke could have come from, so that by the time the crew wake, there is a plan for further investigation in place. Why make the crew stay awake while you come up with that plan?

> Yup -- another business trick is in McDonalds -- the company that supplies the beef in Ireland is called "100% Irish Beef" and thus they put that on the packaging even if the beef doesn't come from Ireland.

This isn't true, it's an urban myth. The original myth was actually that a company called "100% beef" was a company owned by McDonalds, and this is simply a variant. See: https://www.mcdonalds.com/gb/en-gb/help/faq/18916-is-beef-a-...

McDonalds Sourcing Statement - "We work with over 23,000 British and Irish farmers to source our ingredients. Our beef, eggs and milk all come from UK farms."

> I've seen this don't with the equivalent of "100% recyclable" as the name of the company to pass the product off as environmental.

Can you give a source for a company using this? I can't find anything about it online and suspect it's just an urban myth like the first one.
Can you put more info on this? :)
Aside from Sports (where competition is the whole point outside of the Ivy League), Sparta is always portrayed as cruel and inhumane, deservedly so. On the other hand, they were, apparently, good at waging war one way or another.

I've not seen it associated with philosophy and civilization as Athens was, among others.

If you could somehow do that without the 140 gigacoulombs of charge exploding violently before you got close, approximately this: https://youtu.be/YtCTzbh4mNQ?t=16

If you don’t invoke space magic to prevent the positrons from exploding even before they annihilate anything, and they are confined into a 0.1m radius ball, the charge density energy overwhelms the annihilation energy and the ball of positrons explode with a yield of ~1e33 J, which — without exaggeration — looks more like this: https://youtu.be/KNjWpSglUOY

"or later" is a hack to get around the fact that the GPL is basically incompatible (I need a better word because this is overloaded) with itself if you change the name. If you want to use GPL and GPLRenamed libraries in the same project the only option is to relicence the project under both licences. This may be possible if you have few dependencies and few authors. But if you want to depend on a new library after some authors have become uncontactable you basically can't.

This just needs a VPS, running a popular OS such as Ubuntu.

> stable

This is important, I agree.

> and scalable

The scalable part doesn't matter, since it's premature optimisation, which is the root of all evil.

Once the project is used by enough people that it cant run just on one dedicated server, then you'll hopefully have enough revenue coming in from it to make it scalable.

> Can't do that from your laptop

A VPS would typically have less power than a laptop.

Solder fumes aren't great for your lungs, but its not a severe health threat: you're not soldering that much. A fan blowing at you to keep smoke and fumes out of your face should be sufficient for up to a few hours a day of soldering.

There's a lot of overhead in the traditional finance system which leads to gatekeeping by those interested parties. I'd rather pay some crypto fees "to the system" than pay fees that ultimately end up in the pockets of overcompensated executives at a middle-man rent-seeking org.

That's a pretty weak "gotcha" as well.

The reason I have had 3 children instead of 12 is because it balances my interest and desire to be a parent with the work/cost of doing so.

I doubt anyone's decision to reproduce is centered around bestowing the maximal amount of meaning to the universe.
I'm no physicist, but the QBism interpretation of quantum mechanics smells a lot like "The Secret" type of pseudoscience.

Core positions of QBism:

1. All probabilities, including those equal to zero or one, are valuations that an agent ascribes to his or her degrees of belief in possible outcomes. As they define and update probabilities, quantum states (density operators), channels (completely positive trace-preserving maps), and measurements (positive operator-valued measures) are also the personal judgements of an agent.

2. The Born rule is normative, not descriptive. It is a relation to which an agent should strive to adhere in his or her probability and quantum state assignments.

3. Quantum measurement outcomes are personal experiences for the agent gambling on them. Different agents may confer and agree upon the consequences of a measurement, but the outcome is the experience each of them individually has.

4. A measurement apparatus is conceptually an extension of the agent. It should be considered analogous to a sense organ or prosthetic limb—simultaneously a tool and a part of the individual.

And I'm still sad I can't buy a cheap 1L PC based on Ryzen 1606G, with two built-in 10GbE network cards...

Whatever happened with that excellent small-factor platform, anybody knows?

Sure there are several online stores out there that offer some such PCs but they're all pretty expensive and definitely don't reflect the real price (IMO anyway).

I wonder if I'll be able to buy something like that for a home server or whether AMD will release next-gen small-factor PC platform.
If you charge two halves of a muscle oppositely so they attract, you would get arcing between them without a strong insulator in between. But if you charge two halves both negative or both positive there would be no arcing between them. They would still strongly repel and it seems like you could use that to do work.

Wow. "Apple’s bug bounty program offers $100,000 for attacks that gain “unauthorized access to sensitive data.” Apple defines sensitive data as access to contacts, mail, messages, notes, photos or location data."

But a hack that allows arbitrary, malicious applications to be installed doesn't count; even though it could send any user files on the computer (so any data that is not encrypted by its consuming application). That seems...a bit of a logical leap. I mean, yes, it can't let you access iCloud photos, but a random JPG on your computer is totally fair game, so even with their list, it feels like it should be included (let alone the excel file with revenue figures that are going to be broadcast at the next quarterly result meeting with shareholders, or the HR docs containing PII, or...)

If its important why is it boring? Important implies that its going to have changes in design, changes in process which tends to mean its interesting for an engineer.

Is it? On my system the only things depending on binutils (which libbfd is part of) are gcc, clang and perf (seems archlinux doesn't care).

That makes it arguably not a system library, so it's fair that Debian would want to steer clear of that interpretation.

I am not an expert in encryption or plausible deniability, but couldn't steganography be used to conceal sensitive information? I realize steganography would be problematic if you need to store large amounts of information, or need to modify the information often, but couldn't it be used for small amounts of information that doesn't change often?

Couldn't you tell an attacker "It's just a picture of my cat."?
I think yours is a very deep comment.

Some log-oriented file systems may provide insight into changes made. From what I know, ZFS is one example of such file system and btrfs is another.
GHC has the correct policy, that -Werror is not recommended, and if you use it there are no guarantees your build won't break on the future.

Every compiler should adopt it. And every build tool should stop printing thousands of lines of "build tool passed here" on the default verbosity.
I wish I knew what the intel ME and AMD's PSP actually did for 'normal' users. The only time I've ever encountered IME has been in the context of out-of-band server management where it "makes sense" and I totally get it. But I don't get it on consumer computers. It's got to cost something at some level -- there must be a reason why it's worth the chip space. What is it?
An awful lot of those sayings are extolling "willingness to commit violence" as a virtue. That's not the sort of society I think we should emulate.
Steinar Gunderson (who suggested [1] the talk-through-a-pipe approach) just now compared [2] the `libbfd` variant to the pipe-to-`addr2line` version, and found them to take similar amounts of time.

This agrees with what I saw in `top` while testing: with the patch, I see `perf` using ~95% CPU, with `addr2line` using the remaining ~5%.

So speeding up `addr2line` probably wouldn't result in very much of an overall improvement for this workload.

So what's the solution? You can use a permissive licence which has a huge "backdoor" allowing derivatives to turn up under any licence, including GPLv3 (or v4). Or you can use GPLv2 with no "or later" clause which means you get situations like this.

Nobody is talking just about the brain either, pesticides are a huge part of the equation, it's a no brainer. But EM pollution is not easily dismissible.

Peer reviewing is a slow process, I'm happy that there's at least research being conducted seriously.
The Spartans are the OG practitioners of Master Morality, as Nietsche would put it. That which is good is that which is useful, that which is bad is that which is harmful. Cowardice and the like are harmful, therefore they are bad.

Its not clear how much CO2 does the machine release into the atmosphere? Does it source energy from clean resources?

In reality, it the resin code was a deliberate attempt to confuse consumers by the plastics industry to prevent consumers from making an informed decision to move away from plastic packaging on the grounds of it's bad for the environment.

Similar to how the junk food industry is all about telling people to "balance what you eat and what you do", and shrinking portion sizes while also selling "shareable" packs. They are trying to avoid customer ire and/or regulations against them.
