Average price of a new car being 41k is the result of upmarketing. The economy class, your nissan versas, has been roughly the same price of ~16k for like 15 years. Considering inflation, that means these cars have actually gotten even cheaper relatively speaking. The people most affected by gas going up a buck are not the people who can afford a tesla, they are the people buying a nissan versa used for $6k and driving it until the wheels fall off.
If LiveView is backed by PubSub, then I think you can offload persistence to Redis.
It's funny though. The patented technology at Salesforce was pretty cool but wasn't required to build a CRM or similar platform.

Overall, Salesforce's technology looked long in the tooth in most ways when it was 10 years old, it's not sure if their way of doing multitenant was the right way, etc. It's a highly reliable system that performs well, but also dependent on Oracle and gold plated (expensive to run.)

Salesforce was able to pass on the high costs of their system to their customers (it costs a small fraction of the salesperson that it controls) but it kept them out of applications that were more cost competitive.
Millions of AMD PCs affected by new CPU driver flaw need to be patched ASAP
CVE-2021-26333: https://zeroperil.co.uk/cve-2021-26333/

> Without consistency, returns are unpredictable and capital investments will be directed elsewhere.

No, the oil companies will keep being oil companies.

Chevron, Exxon, BP, Aramco, KPC, NIOC, Royal Dutch Shell, PetroChina/CNP, Total, Rosneft, Petrobras, Pemex

They don't redirect their capital investments elsewhere just because oil went from $72 to $90 and then back to $72. They just keep being oil companies, it's what they do. Most of them focus on hedging prices as best they can to deal with price volatility.
It's not about measuring "size" by looking at width, but rather by looking at the total power emitted (for which you need essentially just the brightness and distance) which gives you the size (mass) of the star. So the OP's point seems to be that a Sol-mass star with a Dyson sphere may have the spectrum like a brown dwarf, but it would have the total emission quantity many, many times larger than a brown dwarf can have.
The problem here is letting drug companies market to the uneducated general public - there is a good reason why that practice is banned in most countries.
Same.

Plus all of our apple wireless keyboards and touchpads use lightning as well.

Can you imagine the amount of e-waste that would potentially be generated if Apple was forced to switch? I know this is weak argument bc lightning will eventually be EOLed anyways, but I just don't see the value in forcing their hand.

As I seem to be bringing up on weekly basis, if their goal is to reduce e-waste, they should turn their attention to the Android ecosystem. The amount of e-waste I've generated over the years of using Android is almost criminal.

Or to put it another way, the amount of e-waste I HAVEN'T generated while being in the Apple ecosystem is impressive.

At the very least Apple have already switched to USB-C at the other end of the lightning cable and excluded the charging block on new iPhones.
The solution is to make the consumer participate in driving costs down. One employer I know of has an excellent solution to the problem: Make employees pay 100% of the bill up to a certain amount, such as $6000. That's a large amount, but the employer then contributes a large amount to your Health Savings Account (HSA), such as $4000. This amount is for you to keep regardless of whether you have any health bills or not. (This money can be used for medical expenses only, but can be used any time, including after retirement). So the maximum you will spend out of pocket per year is $2000. How does this encourage the consumer to scrutinize and control medical expenditure? Because the first $6000 of medical spending in a year is "your money". This is money you'd be able to keep in your HSA if you didn't have any medical expenses. This gives the consumer a strong incentive to reduce costs, question charges, avoid unnecessary services, and so on.
Linux is a complete mess that may likely never get fixed. The problem is people. It is a representation of democracy: a messy combination of half-arsed solutions that forms a workable cohesive. This is not a valid competitor to the Mac. It is a compromise.

Lets take Ubuntu as an example. Today you can get Ubuntu laptops that will work out of the box. Is that true tomorrow? Absolutely not. The next distro version will break something in the hardware. I have been burned by this twice now. At then end of the day the Apple premium is not really a premium. It ensures that they continue to support their legacy hardware for years. The people who bash the premium as some sort of "idiot tax" are actually valuing the software that runs on the machine at 0$. There are too many people in this world that don't understand how much effort it takes to create and maintain good reliable software. You see it on the app store where people can't fathom spending 99 cents and you see it in the bashing of Apple devices.

Lets assume that your hardware works beautifully with the current version. Then you actually look at the apps shipped with the distro. They are poorly made and do not form a cohesive OS. You are forced to hunt for other open source equivalents to basic stuff like "paint". Have you tried using the calculator or notepad equivalents? They suck compared the simple and easy to use Windows and Mac equivalents. This is something even Windows gets right. It comes from the fact that Canonical does not have the resources to build each app around a unified design and UX principle so they farm it out to the "open source community".

Finally, why do each distro version seem to break something on the same hardware year after year? There seems to be a serious lack of regression testing on these distros. For 10+ years I have witnessed how one version of Ubuntu breaks some stuff, fixes others and then the next version fixes some stuff but breaks previous working items. Then it gets worse, the subsequent version breaks previously fixed stuff again! I am forced to QA the entire OS every time a new release comes out and hope I don't miss something(which I always do)!
This might be a beginning, but its far away from real code understanding. You still have a problem with copyright code that a AI currently produces and with unsecure code.

AI is still too far away from real understanding.
You're right. There are other calendar solutions, but obviously using multiple services is not a clean solution.

I'd still think about using a subreddit + Notion, but that's because I despise FB.

Tangentially related, but is my understanding of the V8 expose clflush instruction correct?

AMD introduced the Clflush instruction which was supposed to decrease the number of TLB misses and improve performance. This instruction was ultimately responsible for making V8’s behavior erratic and unpredictable with regards to memory operations.

Modern processors with x86-64 architecture support 2-way page tables and most modern operating systems support several layers of virtual memory. However, many of these techniques made the V8's behavior unreliable and unpredictable which led to a performance hit for AMD processors with AMD chips especially those who implemented TLB remapping instructions.

By the way, does Voyager 2 have its own CSI bridge, or are you planning to mount a ready-made module from Geekworm or another company next to your HAT?

All existing CSI bridges that you have used so far have two very serious problems: they do not work with audio capture and due to HDMI backpowering, your Raspberry may stop booting until you physically disconnect the cable. Backpowering is especially common when using KVM switches and some HDMI converters.

Both of these problems are solved on v3 HAT, thanks to our CSI bridge design. Are you planning to solve these problems? Just interesting :)
I like the idea, but I worry that Apple's m.o. is to allow something like this in the margins and then cut it off at the knees if it becomes too successful. Whether by altering their hardware, using security lock-out (à la iPhone), or replicating it without acknowledging where it came from.

>2. It's impossible to move chat history from an android device to an iOS device. And moving from ios to android is only possible with certain samsung phones.

It is possible to do this with third party apps. Incredibly sketchy looking apps I should add, but they do work. I've done it several times both ways.
I bet that this ends up resulting in higher prices. Once hospitals know what the others are charging, it is more likely to cause the cheaper ones to raise their prices than it is the more expensive ones to lower them. Medical care is a scarce good and (mostly) the end consumer is not footing the bill directly, either for the care or the insurance.

That is a good point, but I wonder how significant the effect really is. If you look at charts of oil prices for the last 20 years [1] vs US oil consumption the last 20 years [2], the only significant drops in either appear to be due to a) the 2008 financial crisis, and b) the COVID19 pandemic.

Therefore, it seems like demand for oil has been fairly inelastic to oil price, but instead is tied to the underlying rate of economic activity - AKA people drive less when they don't have jobs.

Now of course that was also because there was no significant alternative to oil as a transportation fuel. Today we have an alternative, so perhaps the volatility will manifest in a shift away from petroleum investment. Even on the consumption side, nearly everywhere in the US electricity is multiples less than the price of gasoline per vehicle mile driven, so it's a bit of an obvious change of fuel on an economic basis alone.

Ah, we're talking about practical solutions here? Should've warned me. A chain of laser reflective sensors might be even better, because there is less mechanical wear + you can use them to know where the train currently is and where it isn't.

But this is very likely a very well researched area and there are definitly train people who can point out a flaw in this idea (dirt?)

For a lot of the LiveView applications that I write (which is actually quite a few these days), I will usually lean on something like AlpineJS for frontend specific interactions, and my LiveView state is for things that require backend state.

For example, if I have a flag to show/hide a modal to confirm a resource delete, the show/hide flag would live in AlpineJS, while the resource I was deleting would live in the state of my LiveView.

This way, there are no round trips to the server over websocket to toggle the modal. Hopefully that example makes sense :).

There is a lot of confusion on whether there actually was a significant increase in calls to poison control centers due to ingestion of ivermectin.

This [1] official Mississippi government document says, "At least 70% of the recent calls have been related to ingestion of livestock or animal formulations of ivermectin purchased at livestock supply centers."

But then the AP [2] seemed to say that was incorrect: "The Associated Press erroneously reported based on information provided by the Mississippi Department of Health that 70% of recent calls to the Mississippi Poison Control Center were from people who had ingested ivermectin to try to treat COVID-19. State Epidemiologist Dr. Paul Byers said Wednesday the number of calls to poison control about ivermectin was about 2%. He said of the calls that were about ivermectin, 70% were by people who had ingested the veterinary version of the medicine."

Does anyone have additional clarification?

Thinking that trump is the worst president in the past 100 years just betrays either an insane privilege[1] or just ignorance. You realize the hundreds of thousands of lives lost directly or indirectly in the war on terror, a war almost completely engineered by the Bush administration, are actually real right? They were people with hopes, plans, dreams that were all wiped out, and for a lot of those who are still alive they are condemned to live in a cycle of violence caused again by the war on terror and it's ripple effects. If you compare that to what trump did in his 4 years and come up with the conclusion that hey, it wasn't as bad & Donald truly is the worst president... Then I don't even know what to tell you.

I'm Muslim and I've grown up my entire life with that war and its consequences in the background, especially since we mostly consumed arabic media. I've thankfully not been affected directly, but man do these takes completely discredit the side that keeps pushing them instantly for me.

We are at a point where even the notoriously neocon hawkish republican party and their voters are a lot more willing to acknowledge just how horrible those people were, yet democrats have no problem completely rehabilitating the old neocon crew because hey yeah they killed people but at least they were... Polite about it? I get that it's unhinged crusading politics and we just have to paint the adversary as the worst person ever to feel the rush of being morally superior but when you are at the point where you defend George W Bush to own the magahats, maybe take a step back and reflect on what you are doing.

The worst part is that now that bed has been made and apologism for those neocons became a mainstream talking point, everyone is just doubling down because admitting that trump isn't actually even close to being worst would be to admit that maybe the hysteria to score political points didn't warrant sweeping under the rug 2 enormously destructive wars.

[1] as in the privilege of not having ever been affected by the war on terror. Which in turn leads to pretty insignificant events like being concerned about the presidents tweets or feeling that you are part of some sort of feel good #resist movement for 4 years just registering as being more impactful than a region getting destabilized far away
This is interesting, but the simulation rate seems weird—one or more events per day for a while, and then at some point it stops going event by event and jumps to the end.
Yes, if it seems interesting. I'm here to satisfy intellectual curiosity and learn new things, after all, so I try to put in the effort.

Unlike a lot of people here, I don't find the comments particularly valuable much of the time, unless a commenter has specific expertise in the subject at hand, or a relevant anecdote, or shows that they have at least read the article and are making an informed comment. And, since so many people here don't read the articles anyway, the comments can sometimes provide negative intellectual value, as when people start commenting on the title alone.
It really depends - sometimes the team I'm working for is worth the hairiness of negotiating the pay raise - other times it's nothing to write home about and jumping ship is easier.
That wasn't an accident.
>We show that despite Google's attempts to mitigate Spectre by deploying Strict Site Isolation, information extraction via malicious JavaScript code is still possible in some cases.

The allusion to Spectre seems odd to me too. This really has nothing to do with Spectre, other than it (sort of?) being a side-channel attack. So Google's Spectre mitigation not "fixing" this isn't surprising.
Every time I get in a car there is a chance someone will not stop on a red light. If 30% of people didn't stop at red lights, would you tell the drivers that follow the law to stay at home or arrest the drivers running red lights?

Because as a driver I can easily protect myself with no sacrifices by never leaving my home. It's all up to me to make an educated choice between safety they desire and freedom of everyone else.

Do you see how weird the argument sounds? No sacrifices is a lie. You think it's fun staying at home for a year? That it requires no sacrifice?

If besides best possible performance you also value ergonomics, security, maturity and tooling then IMO nothing comes close to C++, especially C++17 and later. Not that there is much choice really, only C and Rust can realistically get you comparable performance, each with their own problems.

> But this ultimately leads to the ATP tour being solidified and newcomers being barred from entry as now the player ranked 250 is now earning an income that they can afford much better training than outsiders.

No, it would make it more worthwhile to invest in promising players, who now would have the prospect of making a decent living as a top 250-ranked touring pro, rather than needing to be in the top 50 or 100 in order to do so.

I think more generally the idea is that we should focus on equality rather than equity: people should be able to live well even if they "lose" the meritocratic contest.

That's not what's happening here. If someone really wanted, they could have gotten the drug under Right to try Act if it was life saving drug or something. This instead is FDA approving the drug as if it actually works which based on current reporting isn't the case.

I've been using Brave for over a year now. I don't use the opt-in Brave Rewards Ads but do use the Brave Rewards Auto-Contribute. I love Brave and think it is actually going to save the web from becoming a shitty, slow experience over the years to come.

My only gripe is that the crypto integration with Uphold to pay creators is/was hard to use. I love the idea that I can pay $20/month to use the web and that money is disbursed to the sites I visit most!

Update: This motivated me to login to Uphold again and relink Brave Rewards so I can use the auto-contribute feature. Uphold didn't have recurring transactions for debit/credit cards originally so it was too much friction to use, but it is all working now.
