I'm along-term Mac laptop user, and your experience doesn't track to mine at all.

I've never had one of mine get hot in a bag. Wake from sleep is nearly instant, and always has been.

I will cop to hearing the fans more often since I switched to running two 4K screens with it, but I'm not sore about that.
Profit isnt even mentioned there. Which paragraph were you referring to?
WhatsApp is still a negative investment atm. I’m sure Instagram is printing money like Facebook but it relies on the same mechanisms, and thus will fall with Facebook.
From the article "Prolific, a tool for scientists conducting behavioral research, had no screening tools in place to make sure that it delivered representative population samples to each study.". I would argue that studies from this tool were already disrupted if you are not screening your users in some way.

You think immigration should be illegal?

You really had me in agreement with the first few items. You are not a serious person.
To be fair I use the feature a lot when picking a batch of files for editing. It just makes no sense for saving - it's a bad UX reuse attempt.
"Remain there" indeed.

As anyone who has ever switched from an iPhone to an Android device will tell you, iMessage makes the process extremely painful, and in totally unexpected ways. You get your new Android phone set up, and suddenly find that you're not getting messages from any of your friends that have iPhones... because those messages are being routed over iMessage instead of SMS.

So you do a bunch of Googling or contact support for your phone manufacturer or wireless carrier, who directs you to an Apple tool for de-registering your number from iMessage. You go through that process, but it takes days/weeks for your de-registration to finally make it through "the system" to everybody's iPhones so that messaging with your friends on iPhones finally starts working again.

Did Apple do this intentionally? No, probably not. Could they solve this problem? You bet they could. But why solve something that makes switching to Android a nightmare?
Authoritarians are often surprised to find out that people do actually have some limited freedoms left in the US.

When they see people exercising those freedoms they are often alarmed and quickly write their politicians to ensure those freedoms are curbed.

the parent is clearly one of those authoritarians.
> What if Apple is the next evil megacorp?

Apple is one of the evil megacorps, this is not in question.

> What's next?

Given that apparently the thing that is in vogue now is making the universe of snow crash more real, probably a long slide into (more) corporatism.
Looks like another fixer.io clone, meh.
You don't need to be a billionaire to count as "bored rich", which I take to mean anyone who has too much money lying around and can't find better uses than shitty computer-generated "art" (note that this doesn't include people who buy these with the sole purpose of flipping them to a greater fool).

There are a surprising number of bored rich people, especially when you consider all the new-found crypto wealth. Most of them probably haven't contributed any of their excess wealth to help the hundreds of millions of people who are still starving, so if NFT is one way to extract some of that, so be it.
Strongly agree.

Honestly, just the first point "Asynchrony is viral" is a huge fucking flag that this implementation sucks.

It doesn't need to be viral, they just needed to make passing a continuation easy, and they failed miserably.

Overall - I really like most of C#, but that async/await implementation is poor at best.
The original comment was about protecting yourself against inflation. Not sure how your comment is related.
OK, so, overheating the laptop stresses it and will eventually damage it. Got it. Easy to understand.

Question. What is it about "being in a bag" that destroys the thermal handling? I've had my laptop in my lap spontaneously power off when it gets too hot. (Which itself makes me a bit crabby about why it didn't successfully throttle down until it could at least keep running, but that's a separate gripe.) Why doesn't the laptop in the bag also eventually turn itself off?

Laptops are equipped with thermal sensors to prevent themselves from destroying themselves already. Why aren't they working here? Why don't the sensors cut things off earlier? Why isn't this a warranty issue? Isn't my hardware's thermal shutoff mechanism defective if it lets this happen?
If the payout is higher priority to you than the ethics of selling an exploit that governments around the world will end up using to hunt and capture or kill political dissidents, then you are of course free to sell it on the exploit market :) I prefer to sleep at night, though.

Don't apple make the frameworks they use? Im pretty sure they could just patch them when they are notified of a vulnerability.
thanks for the reply - no idea why you're getting downvoted as this strong contrast of perception is what I was interested in hearing about.

Do you feel like your fear is rational? Statistically my gut instinct would be to think you have virtually zero chance of being physically harmed by a business owner with a family, regardless of how many guns they own. Not that I would discount your fear, just wondering if this is something more akin to my fear of heights as opposed to my fear of driving through a high violent crime rate neighborhood at night with my gas tank indicator saying "empty".
> Rhetorical devices and hyperbole ... feel real to an average 65 year old congressperson

Last I checked, congressperson is a person in congress, the profession of which is politics... I felt that covered the rhetoric and hyperbole well but I can take the criticism.

What I may have miscalculated is that there will be some who feel that my statment is something that is / has occured and not just rhetoric and hyperbole and then that is a slippery slope I do not want to journey along.
I'm sure people who don't fly or follow fashion feel the same way about the perceived utility.

I for one think not having to pay 20% for a remmitance for someone who is trying to help their famiy in another country has huge utility, maybe others disagree.

Credit cards or paypal. Both of which have a better refund system.
Brtfs only exists as Oracle's "replacement" for ZFS, to hedge their bets in case they couldn't buy Sun. Oracle bought sun in 2010, that has been 12 years.

They merged the Btrfs and ZFS teams, they then worked on ZFS entirely with no Btrfs work, and then basically reassigned, fired, or otherwise dissolved the ZFS team when it became clear that OpenZFS (Sun's chosen steward for ZFS) could not be swayed.

Btrfs has had no real work done on it since then, and anyone that is actually serious about data storage has moved to ZFS, or has left POSIX filesystems entirely.
>> This sounds like an anti-feature to me. Especially since it'd be foolish for a service to only support authentication via a blockchain. Imagine telling my grandmother that she needed to buy some btc in order to sign up for the service that hosted my wedding photos.

This is different because your grandma would have to buy the tokens once and signup once and she will have access not only to the 'wedding photo service' but a large number of other services. It's more like paying a small amount of money to get access to an ecosystem of services. Like how people pay money to buy an iPhone and this gives them access to the Apple App Store and all the apps therein.

There will also be network effects associated with the blockchain price going up with adoption. People who signed up early to the right blockchains will have priority access to certain software ecosystems and exclusive services which are only accessible to the richest among them (for example).

FWIW, If you asked me to choose whether I'd get to keep the Internet Archive/Wayback Machine or Wikipedia, I'd choose the Archive in a heartbeat. (Not to mention the opportunities for serendipitous discovery are always amazing at the Internet Archive, even outside the Wayback Machine.)

I don't use the Internet Archive as often, but when I need it, I need it bad, and Brewster Kahle is the ultimate Internet badass for creating it. That is all.

The fungibility argument doesn't work when you consider that not all power generation in the world is connected to the same grid. There are crypto operations that use their own renewable power infrastructure. That energy never would have made it to the grid because there was no incentive for it to be put there (otherwise it would already have been there). The incentive is to use it for crypto not your mom's blender.
Hmm, the advantage of an "official" formatter, is that the language itself could maybe support formatting directives?
For them, that would be back to square one in terms of money laundering.

Odds are that, given fiat to launder, or crypto that needs to be converted to fiat that still needs to be laundered, they would cut the useless step.

The only illegal industry that would still see the use for it is maybe ransomware, but ransomware is not a cyclic business, so it would be surprising that they'd find enough individuals on the street to convert their millions easily.
[Hi from Argentina!] My guess is that it's a long path to escape dollarization.

USD -> BTC -> USDT -> USDSV -> SVPesos

Let's explain each step:

USD -> BTC: Because it's cool to use a cryptocoin

BTC -> USDT: Nobody wants BTC because the price changes too much

USDT -> USDSV: Why should a country depend on a foreign business?

USDSV -> SVPesos: Just rename it for patriotic reasons

Which ones of the coins in the previous list are stablecoins is left as an exercise to the reader.
The bug report contains expected result "DNS resolution error, or some kind of non-fatal error in general." - so that's what I meant by works as expected. It just shows DNS failure page, it does not crash the browser.
That's a ridiculous and obvious lie. This kind of absurd nonsense can only be founded on bigotry.
Current inflation is due to the government “creating money” for the COVID-19 stimulus, the fact that governments can even do that is what’s so good about fiat currency.

Bailouts are another benefit. Governments can at will dull or even prevent financial contagion thus preventing another Great Depression.

All this has a cost in the form of inflation until the money is reabsorbed of course but it’s better than economic collapse.
I don't trust the collective anonymous users of Bitcoin more than I trust my bank and the court system though.

If someone hacks into my account, my bank will likely reimburse me for any losses. There are controls in place to stop them from stealing it al. If someone just transferred it to their own account, I could use the courts to get it back. If I use a credit card to pay a scam, I can do a charge-back.

With cryptocurrencies, it's just "bye money". They're not going to fork for you. There's no logic to stop people in Russia transferring my entire account. It's too hard to find criminals to get any relief. It's just your fault for using cryptocurrencies and not having 100% perfect security.

Not to mention, the chance of my bank stealing all my money is nil. They'd be sued and arrested, and the FDIC would reimburse me anyway.

I use ZFS on my main computer, but it sends its backups to a tiny computer with two laptop USB drives plugged in, running Btrfs RAID-0. (The second drive was added when the first one filled up.) I did it that way because it's the second copy of the data, and I'll only need to call on it if my main computer dies. I have a sentry program running on the tiny computer that regularly checks that all the data is present, correct, and readable. The likelihood that it breaks at the same time as my main computer is slim.

I wouldn't trust Btrfs for much more than that.

I specified ZFS for some of work's very large servers (>100 drives). They wanted to do hardware RAID and XFS instead, and I can just image the nightmares that would have involved.
> Only at zero emissions for a source this would stop being true

There are plenty of crypto operations that have their own, renewable power sources that operate in a closed zero emission fashion.
Well my first point is that if you compare the amount of breaches vs the amount of enforcement happening, "no enforcement is happening" becomes true unless you want to be pedantic and count 0.1% as enforcement worth talking about.
Honestly I don't think NFTs - as it exists - was ever a good model.

I know there's a hypothetical resale mechanism, but it's fundamentally operating on a lottery system - artists are buying a ticket hoping to hit it big, and that favors a self-destructive mentality.

A Patreon-like system still has an element of luck, but the steady monthly income makes it much easier for an artist to say "this is working, I should keep going" or "I guess I should start looking for a/keep my day job".
> For keeping track of a ledger that one dude in a basement with an Excel spreadsheet could keep track of, more or less.

No, for protecting against the untrustworthiness of that one guy in his basement. You may disagree with the value of that function, but that's what cryptocurrency provides.
In most countries (not the USA), speeds are lower in each lane towards the shoulder. That way, as you lose speed, you can seemlessly change towards the shoulder.

It's the same thing I would do if I had an underpowered and heavily laden car or truck and came to a big hill that the car could only get up at 40 mph - change lanes towards the shoulder so that people with more powerful cars can overtake.

It has a bunch of safety benefits too, like knowing people always will be passing you on only one side, making driving more predictable, and hence safer.

Why not?

Windows 7 for example had a support lifetime of about 10 years. Any red hat release has a support lifetime of 10 years plus another 3 or 4 years of extended support for releases since 2010.

I agree that 7 years is not little, but it is not much either.
In this vein, this is the United States' opportunity to out-compete China. We need to refactor immigration and foreign policy to embrace adding regions, refugees, and other migrants to our fold. Otherwise they will be added adhoc in overwhelming numbers and much to the surprise of government and the people. The world is getting hot. This causes unforseen changes like political upheaval and subsequent migrations (Hatian example recently).

The only answer might be adding other countries into our representative government system (not colonialism, but peacefully and equitably adding other willing states that want to benefit from stable government). Seems people are already voting to join with their feet. Embrace it.
Here's the 2017 announcement: http://www.gov.cn/xinwen/2017-09/04/content_5222657.htm

There are changes. E.g. the 2017 announcement doesn't mention 衍生品 (derivatives) at all, while the 2021 announcement explicitly lists trading them among the prohibited activities.
There's no submarine cable to Antarctica? Is this because it would be too difficult to terminate given the expansion/contraction of the ice shelf?
For Man Wah, me and my wife went there just before the renovation (interior was dated but a bit classy and very Hong Kong) and about 2 months ago (so after the renovation, it's more modern but kind of loses its charm). We went there for yam cha and ordered some of the typical staples that are good to compare Cantonese restaurants as well as their lunch set menu:

- The char siu was the worst we've had in a long time (it came both cold, dry from being overcooked and overly sweet),

- The har gao's folding technique and skin was good but shrimps were not fresh (incidentally Summer Palace had the same problem, but it's not an issue I've ever had with other fine dining Cantonese restaurants). There wasn't any of the slightly sweet taste that you expect of fresh shrimps in good har gaos

- The abalone puff was okay but not great, the abalone was a bit too soft and a bit too saucy

- The pork ribs on rice roll had an off taste and the rice roll themselves were too rubbery

- The single outstanding dish served as a cold appetizer that we really liked which was a morel mushroom and fish maw jelly. That was masterfully done and is what we'd expect of a michelin starred restaurant.

- The puerh served was low quality and had a strong moldy smell. The waiter also didn't properly rinse the tea which you would expect them to know how to do. (not all Cantonese restaurants serve great puerh due to how expensive it's become but this was really unacceptable)

- The Tie Guan Yin was also low quality and barely acceptable (usually Tie Guan Yin is a safe choice since it hasn't been affected by speculations and sky high prices like puerh teas and so it's much easier to source good quality tea by Cantonese fine dining restaurants).

We tend to first try a restaurant for lunch before eventually trying some of the more expensive dishes for dinner and in the case of the shark fin soup, we have decided not to ever eat shark fin soup due to the environmental impact.

For Summer Palace, we only ordered dim sums and all dim sums came out a bit cold like they had been sitting there for a while. The shrimps themselves also didn't taste fresh.

As point of comparison, we go for yam cha every week and we quite agree with Michelin's assessment of Yan Toh Heen (their loss of one michelin star coincided with the drop in quality we had noticed), Forum (well worth the 3 stars), Sun Tung Lok, Yat Tung Heen, Tin Lung Heen, Spring Moon and Tang Court. For Lung King Heen, they have great dim sum, but we've always been disappointed whenever we've ordered a dish outside of their dim sum menu.

Sorry if that sounds pretentious. We deeply love Cantonese food and so we have sampled a lot of restaurants around (both rated and non rated) and Man Wah was probably the most disappointing experience we've had in a long time (especially since it's more expensive than all the other restaurants mentioned). After the renovation when we heard that there was a new menu we decided to give it a second chance but that didn't work out :)
The brain uses ketones as fuel, so you will find that hypoglycemia is easily tolerated.

In ketosis, your brain will have plenty of fuel, even if your blood glucose drops too low.
In this case at least the article implies this not to be true, one of the interviewed ceos said he used to generate 80% of his revenue from Facebook ad buys and now it’s only 20%. This would imply he’s getting his ads in front of real people.
Entitlements are great, right up until someone has to start manually deciding what access to give. After being blocked or questioned by the OS a handful of times, people are going to either disable the security or effectively disable it with wildcard matches.
Alas it does not happen only on GNOME.

For example, mentioning how irrational is that to this day GIMP has no dedicated tool to draw basic geometric shapes (rectangles, ovals) as every other image editor does, even the most basic ones, can get you a lecture about how GIMP is free software, its lack of funding, that (allegedly) those tools are irrelevant and go against their philosophy, downvotes, bans...

This is unrelated, but do you find that you lose your sense of awareness when cycling with headphones in? I can see the appeal in a rural road or otherwise less busy area, but in downtown Toronto, you'll die if you do it.

Even on country roads, occasionally cars (and cyclists!) will pass to close, and one errant swerve will end in disaster.

I forget which country it was, but they had a national campaign (including radio ads and one pop song) that encouraged cyclists to ride with only one earbud inserted.
See? Story seeding in progress. This thread is welcomed to the media ecochain.
It seems to me that few if any of the businesses that need all the tracking information are really productive. Most of them are really just playing arbitrage games between the rates for advertising and fees paid for leads from other businesses (I've worked in this industry in the past and it's kind of an icky place to be). If every single business that does this disappeared, outside of their employees, no one would ever notice that they no longer existed.
> But then again, when you're starting with zero ZFS knowledge, you also need to learn the particular way it's designed.

Except… there's nothing to really learn. All these weird edge cases that can kill your BTRFS simply don't exist in ZFS. The tooling is also much more polished and in the few cases that something does require user attention, it'll tell you in easily understandable terms, so as a new user the only command you really need to learn is `zpool status`, which you now did.
