Nice. I ordered prints of a pair of my favorite covers back in 1984. Unfortunately I left one of them in a large manilla envelope for decades, and it got stained and yellowed. The other was under glass and it fared better, but still got a few yellow spots.

If you can pause writes to the disk while reading from it (and you are using a supported filesystem, and you aren't doing or can ignore any raw device accesses), it would be much easier to use fsfreeze(8) instead. Caution is of course required when using this on the root filesystem, but I would trust it far more than anything using blktrace. My guess, having used it before but not closely investigated it, is that while it may appear reliable at first, it is most likely not highly tested to drop no events under load, and the same applies for this tool. On the other hand, as long as I've worked out that fsfreeze won't deadlock the whole machine, I'm reasonably confident that it will result in a correct disk image.
Um. Where was this? Boss sounds like a nut case haha
Anecdata time! I take a prescription medication that is also a controlled substance. I am _supposed_ to check in with my doctor every three months, and am _supposed_ to be subjected to random drug tests to make sure I am taking this med and not selling it.

But, due to COVID, I've not had to check in with my doctor since March 2020. I am not sure when the mandatory reviews will start back up again. If I were naughty, I could make a good deal of money selling this substance. This isn't an opiate, but the story could be the same. All sorts of controls and checks flew out the window 18 months ago and haven't returned. Maybe it is contributing.

Probably it is the fentanyl though.
Berate me my entire life. Hold me to impossible standards and goals. I pull a miracle and actually complete those goals. Take all the credit for my work, mess it up, print yourself rich, then fawn over the nearest foreigner who wants to horribly murder us all.

Lock up the police. Criminals are free to do what they want, except "acts of whiteness." It really is an attack on not just America, but civilization, from lawless barbarity.
But I don't want it in a window, I want it centered in my screen with no scaling applied without having to do any shenanigans on the laptop's side.
American corporations are all about economics and free market when it benefits them: remove regulation, remove trade barriers, remove taxes, destabilize this government, relocate these pesky indiginous peoples.

But if it doesn't benefit them, they immediately shed the religious robes and immediately start lobbying the government for exclusionary barriers, blocking regulation.

And if your demand for workers outstrips supply and costs rise? Oh no, there is a crisis that must be managed by the government, or brand workers as lazy, but whatever you do, don't offer more pay.

Well, unless you are an in-demand mighty executive, then your massive options bonuses are fully justified for your esteemed talents. Oh your corporation was run aground? They are desperately needed to retain your talents while the ship is evacuated.

Corporations are bizarre little totalitarian pyramids. I can only imagine a true perfectly-responsive economic organization would realize on a per-worker basis their economic benefit and provide commensurate reward should some salaryman produce millions in revenue/profit.

Instead they hand out plaques.
It wouldn't be the same debouncer, keyboard input is usually debounced before it reaches the OS, let alone whatever windowing system that an on screen keyboard sends events to.
It was ... challenging ...

The corporation (I don't name it in postings, but it's fairly easy to figure out, if you visit my SO Story) is one of the top-shelf corporations in Japan. Their brand is/was pretty much synonymous with "Quality."

I have been into writing Quality code, since my very first engineering project, and loved the passion.

The engineers and scientists in Tokyo were awesome. The company got "first draft pick." Every single one of them had at least a Master's degree. Many Ph.Ds. Having their business card opened a lot of doors for me.

I found their reliance on Process (note the capital "P") to be absolutely infuriating. It worked extremely well on hardware; not so well on software.

I did my best to coax them out of their mousehole, but, in the end, the conservatives won, and the company has basically retreated to its roots; which may not work out so well, in the long run.
Be careful or you’ll start people on eMacs vs. vim.

Edit: actually answered the question
The Australian plate is the fastest moving continental land mass on Earth and is colliding into the Pacific plate to Australia's north and east, and the Eurasian Plate to the northwest. This generates mainly compressive stress in the interior of the Australian continent, which is slowly building up across the plate as it moves northeast about 7 cm per year. Australia's earthquakes are caused by the sudden release of this stress when rocks deep underground break and move along a fault line. While some parts of the country are more likely to experience earthquakes than others, large earthquakes can occur anywhere across the continent, and without warning.

On average 100 earthquakes of magnitude 3 or more are recorded in Australia each year. Earthquakes above magnitude 5.0, such as the destructive 1989 Newcastle earthquake, occur on average every one-to-two years. About every ten years Australia experiences a potentially damaging earthquake of magnitude 6.0 or more such as the magnitude 6.5 Meckering earthquake in October 1968.

Yeah a lot of times they're manufactured to be better.
This is AWESOME! I definitely have to build this some day, maybe when I'm in the mood to suffer through all that soldering. I don't mind the small screen for reading novels, but a text book or PDF probably won't happen.

Also, I noticed that the price for components went up from the ~$30 mentioned in the instructions to $50+ on Digikey, and there is currently one part that is out of stock (and no back order allowed).

Total cost: $15 (PCB) + ~$55 (components) + $15 (display) = ~$85. With shipping it may be more like $100.

But $100 for an open, hackable e-ink eBook reader is still pretty good IMO.
Since speed is one the main selling points of Google Chrome, option 2 (C++ runtime checks) is not a long term solution, is this article basically a (purposefully) muffled announcement hinting at „We will be rewriting Google Chrome in Rust“?
Read the first article:

https://www.brookings.edu/research/reforming-global-fossil-f...

"The Environmental and Energy Study Institute reported that direct subsidies to the fossil fuel industry totaled $20 billion per year, with 80% going toward oil and gas. In addition, from 2019 to 2023, tax subsidies are expected to reduce federal revenue by around $11.5 billion. Considering that production subsidies grew 28% between 2017 and 2019, the United States will be under a lot of scrutiny from other countries wanting to see evidence of reform before making their own commitments."

I've also discovered that capslock is a useful way of detecting (linux) kernel panics. If everything freezes, and capslock stops toggling that light, your kernel is dead.
FWIW...

I like to think I'm someone who "gets" the "culinary language" (insofar as that is meaningful; food/cooking/taste being so subjective I'm not sure how useful the comparison to a "tightly-written C program" can be). Have cooked since I was 12, payed way too much for a fancy french culinary school, worked in various styles of restaurant.

I think Michelin-star-type restaurants are repulsive, masturbatory, hubris infested dumps. Le Cinq's 140 EUR "Spaghetti Gratin" is only marginally less absurd than a "contemporary artist" selling a plain white canvas for 7+ figures. Give me a big plate of grandma's spag bol over that any day.
> Like why have databricks, azure synapse, AND snowflake on the same picture.

This hits painfully close to home. Our org just "finished" such a build, mainly done by a large contractor, and the result is a messy nightmare.

> integration tool, snowflake, a machine to run python on, and our BI tool

Yep, my next campaign will be to gradually pare it down to this. Snowflake is wonderfully capable.
Sorry, I interchange the two words.

What I mean is if you want to get better (and actually professionally good at something) you need to get training (lessons, classes, courses, whatever you want to call it) from a professional teacher in that field - you won't get to pro level of good simply by doing, and you won't get to pro level taking lessons from someone else who is just good at it. They need to be a professional teacher in that field.

It has 4 type C ports, that's what the modules plug into. So the type C port module is basically a one inch extension cable. They do recommend you buy 4 so it's $80 and not $20. Having ANY upcharge to be able to have an expectedly reachable port to plug your laptop's power supply into seems like a design flaw.

Unless they've done research that shows the type C port on the main board is a common point of failure and needs soldering to fix I don't see the point. I've had to clean lint out of ports but I've never broken a type C port on a computer.
Over the last decade, your family doctor would've likely prescribed a drug like Chantix. One that has very recently been recalled due to increased risk of cancer:

https://khn.org/morning-breakout/pfizer-recalls-chantix-anti...

Unfortunately, your doctor's recommendation is not necessarily the ideal option for your overall health.

As a former smoker, I applaud any and all strategies that could be effective without pharmaceutical intervention, at least as a first option for addicted individuals.

£100K+ ($135k) is common enough in fintech, and lately smaller tech startups have been offering that kind of salary.

I don't know where those aggregation sites get their data, but it doesn't match my experience. Those same sites will say the average in SF is well below what anyone I know is earning also.

I would note salaries are not very transparent in the UK, and most higher end job adverts don't even indicate a range - but based on the constant messages on LinkedIn and my experience hiring, the market is a lot hotter than those aggregation sites would suggest.
there is no study, including this one, that supports what you are saying. one of the challenges is that the driver often, "often" where is this often coming from? do you sit in with drivers and watch them? they often do this. you are completely making that up.

Instead of buying a brand-new potato, consider buying a used or refurb'd laptop. Your performance stance doing this is much better now compared to.... any time else in PC history because PC hardware performance gains have flattened out. Plus, corporations get rid of perfectly good PCs like, every year because they want the latest model for their staff and especially their executives/management. Know where to shop and you'll find a glut of cheap and even free computers. I've been poor myself; used machines is how I got by. That and building my own.

Either way, you'll pay about as much for a used ThinkPad in good condition with good specs as you would for a new HP Stream or other cheaptop.
PowerBI is kind of a MS Access for BI. It loads data from your warehouse and gives both visual builders and query interfaces to data. IE, it's a specific product name - the data viz tool from MS to accompany their other services.
Apparently there's significant dialectal variation on whether the "hamburger" is a sandwich, including the bread, or just the meat often used to form the filling of a sandwich: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamburger

In my usage, you can eat just a hamburger, but McDonalds won't sell you one; they'll insist on putting it between slices of bread, thus making a hamburger sandwich of it. If you want to eat just the hamburger, you'll have to peel off the bread and throw it away. They also sell fried-fish sandwiches and, in an absurd attempt to seem "healthy", chicken sandwiches.

Around here Starbucks serves mostly desserts, but that might be a regional thing.
Lucky you. My wife tells me to quit my job because I hate it so much. The thing is, there's no alternative that pays the bills and she spends more on her hobbies every month than I do on the mortgage, and she doesn't help with family bills.
Anyone who worked under the Executive Branch (most of government) between 1-2017 and 1-2020 worked as a member of the Trump administration. Don't discount them all.
Ugh. A similar experience here in some ways; we lost twins at childbirth and had to work through a billing nightmare after spending almost a week at a university hospital that was 2h drive south of our home, hearing optimistic expectations from various doctors and surgeons.

> Medical billing experts who reviewed the case described it as a dispute between a large hospital and a large insurer, with the patient stuck in the middle.

This seems really, REALLY common...an individual ends up soaking up the most bitter aftershocks of a care incident and the accompanying battle between two possibly-responsible parties.

I asked about one of these cases online for a friend at one point, and an insurance industry middle-man chimed in. Not to help out, but simply to become defensive, letting me know that he worked with these cases all the time, and you generally get what you pay for.

So next time pay more for insurance, was his point.

Meanwhile this person's Reddit profile was full of photos of his new Tesla. It made me sick to my stomach to have to tell my friend that yes, somebody replied, and no, it wasn't that helpful, and...let's change the subject for now.
Some places like HHMI/Janelia (not affiliated) are trying to hire people and give them a lot of cash and money to pursue ambitious things.

I think this is the correct approach, and history shows that really successful organizations (CSHL, Bell Labs, LMB Cambridge) used to operate like this at their peak of productivity.

Sadly, current universities are totally driven by metrics and corridor politics, which leads to many publications with small incremental ideas.
A surprising number of young people have a low-key indifference to death and don't really care what happens to them in the future.
HP is a notable exception to this trend, they still make multiple ranges of slim, customizable laptops (at least non-touchscreen models). I oversee IT for an org of ~150 people and have swapped out RAM and M.2 SSDs on multiple recent HP ProBooks, EliteBooks, and a ZBook in the last few weeks with just a Phillips screwdriver and a spudger.

Nothing epoxied shut or soldered in place, and the metal cases on recent generations of these HP models are sturdier than the older plastic. Our lead tech has replaced HP laptop batteries, keyboards and displays when needed with no issues. HP is also one of the few brands with backlit keyboards standard on most laptops, even down to the lower-end models I've encountered since 2018.

But the Frameworks sure look intriguing!

>Virtually all online services with user accounts collect personal information as defined by COPPA.

And that makes it right to do so? I think not.

Sure, it's necessary to store stuff like login credentials, if a login is required to access the site.

As such, it shouldn't matter how old (or young) you are, unless there's a specific need to store such information (and there rarely is) to support the use of whatever services are provided by a website, it's invasive and untrustworthy to do so.

And I respond accordingly.

Feel free to disagree, but that's not a discussion which will end in me changing my position.
I mean there are some less subjective parts like service and cooking properly. Going to random places and getting food poisoning, or finding plastic from the wrapper in your food I expect would never happen at a michelin star restaurant. Whereas, random hole in the wall places I've eaten at have multiple times given me these experiences. Undercooked meat is a simple one too. A lot of higher rated/fancier places I've found consistently deliver better food. That's not personal preference, it's absence of basic cooking mistakes.
you dont live in a failing economy or one where the govt intervention prevents the free flow of money.

1)chinese were able to smuggle money out of china

2)venezuelans are using it in lieu of their failed currency

3) criminals are using it to launder money and buy/sell illegal products

4) people are using it to send money across national borders without paying fees/tariffs (e.g. to mexico)

I remember not that long ago when the money supply was about 6T. Now with 30T in debt that automatically becomes the defacto money supply. Crypto can act as a stable store of value because all fiat is inflationary, though it is incredibly volatile now.
Anyone running Fedora 34 on Framework who would be willing to share their experience?

> If any UKites have made it to this thread, is be curious to hear why so few people leave for countries with a stronger and higher paying tech sector?

If by "countries with higher paying tech sector" you mean the USA, with all due respect and without going into a huge discussion, I much prefer staying in UK, or the European continent in general. There is more to life, happiness, comfort, long-term goals and self-realisation than the number of dollars deposited in my bank account by my employer.

With remote working and the Internet the idea of relocating where your job is, is quite antiquated, at least for my standards. If I really need the money, I'll try and find a way to get paid US salaries while living in the EU.

As a software engineer working 100% remote and living in London I get paid 3-4x the average London salary, which is enough _for me_ to live more than comfortably and I don't really feel I need to earn $500k a year to improve my quality of life. I can't afford a private jet, but I don't need one, either.
I'm pretty sure that they don't here, (though as I said it's been quite a while since I've been to one) since nobody in the UK would call a burger a sandwich.

> then offer remote work for people who don't.

the problem is that offering remote work as an isolated option isn't feasible, because the cost of living when remote is lower (presumably), and thus, either they must be paid lower, or the office-working colleagues must be paid more to adjust for said cost of living.

I feel there would be social friction caused by this market-force mechanism.
Kudos for linking the signing public key in the release announcement.

I see many announcements where it is difficult to find.
No the type C ports are $9 each, so it is less than $20 for two. You can reach the port without a module, but sure they could throw in one or two for free I guess. You should suggest that. I know users do not like to be nickel and dimed, and the two modules probably do not increase the BOM much.

That said they may be planning for a situation where you bring your own modules or buy from a third party if you wish -- it is an open design after all. Consider the enterprise use case. An org could have a batch of USB-C modules for replacement that they source from a third party for a cheap price, and then order the laptops themselves on demand.

Framework is all about reducing waste, so only giving users what they ask for is part of that.
So completely spot, on my friend.
Definitely worth considering too. Bratislava is really close to Vienna, probably more West European in culture than others because of physical proximity and history.

I'd explore all these, may be do a few months stay in each city, that would be really cool experience you could tell stories about.

Ok, definitely a dialect thing. A burger (~ patty if you insist) in a bun is just a burger, I don't think anybody here (UK) would call that a sandwich.
