Because of the Amundsen-Scott base at the South Pole, and how it is supplied, local time at the South Pole is New Zealand time. The North Pole has no local time since there's no human presence there.

Air traffic generally uses UTC for all purposes, and if there's no clear local time, it's highly likely that UTC will be chosen. Wikipedia's page on Air France 447 (which crashed in the Atlantic Ocean on route from Brazil to France) exclusively uses UTC for its crash timeline notes, while its page on MH17 uses local (Ukraine) of its shootdown and for MH370 uses Malaysian Time for its timeline.

Given that Alert is the northernmost continuous human settlement, I'd imagine that any search-and-rescue effort for an extreme polar crash would be coordinated out of there. Alert's timezone is (US/Canada) Eastern Time.

However, this is a trick question. To get an extreme polar flight, you're looking at something like LA-Dubai. No one on that flight would be bringing enough winter clothing to survive a crash at the North Pole, and so everyone would be dead of frostbite or hypothermia if not killed by the impact itself, and thus there are no survivors.
There's a big difference here. Facebook's apparent purpose is to capture audiences and feed them ads. Cisco's purpose (was... I have no idea what they're up to these days) it to enable low level communication via their infrastructure products. These are so very different...

Now, if Cisco were negotiating preferential deals with oppressive regimes or companies that were well known for committing what most would consider to be crimes against humanity, then Cisco should choose not to sell to those groups. This is exactly what I'm suggesting FB do.

Is there a self-playing/idle mode in Dwarf Fortress?

I really wish I could jump ship from Nvidia.

Having CUDA is just too important for work though, I really wish more ML libraries would add ROCm support. I understand it's now supported in Pytorch, but doing something like finetuning a Transformer model just isn't there yet (someone please, pleease tell me if I'm wrong)

The state of the closed source binaries required to get Nvidia GPU's running stable on Linux is a frustrating state of affairs.
Read the letter again. Epic is saying that Apple changes the rules, it will resubmit Fortnite for iOS; if not, it will only resubmit Fortnite for Mac and use the account to internally test Fortnite for iOS; either way, it will follow the rules for what it does submit.
>integrity org is massive

Because the userbase is so ludicrously big "Massive" doesn't really convey the level of staffing in relative terms.

How many posts does the network have per moderator-workday?
None of them have hit the market yet, indeed. But it's still not an issue for Apple, adding a 48V mode to their USB PD controller is trivial.

Drawing from multiple ports is a good idea! But if you're MacGyvering something, it's much easier to connect the right resistor to the USB C connector and solder the power lines right into a 48V PSU.
I have fond memories of Delphi, and it looks like an amazing product, the deal breaker for me is that it runs only in Windows.
So your argument is that it's a small pile of money we're lighting on fire so who cares? Not particularly compelling.

> evidence...does not try to ban content like this

What would you call Apple pointing it out and Facebook continuing to monetize until Apple threatened to ban them from he App Store?

> What is indeed a wrongdoing of last decade of companies is the growth at all costs mindset which leads to weird engagement hacks (like LinkedIn sending you an email notification for a message but now showing the message content in email)

Are we really comparing the selling of ads for slavery with LinkedIn requiring clickthrough for their messages?
I'm fairly sure he's making an ironic joke about the comment he was replying to.
If there were only 2 stores in the world and they both had exactly the same policy, then yes I would say the same thing.
It's not forgotten, just conveniently ignored. Criminals are not afforded human status to many people, which makes political and racial criminilization such a valuable tool for government (ie. Nixon, Kissinger et al for a clear expression of this mentality).
well this is like saying we're gonna ban chemistry because people are gonna make meth (or whatever drug)
Intent matters. For instance, if a fed or informant asks to use your services and you think they are doing it for illegal purposes, such as terrorism, then you can be convicted (Even though the fed / informant never actually would have executed them, and it was a ruse to arrest you). If you come into my business, and I announce I believe you are engaging in terrorist activity, then the case is pretty much open and shut for my intent if I go on to support your ongoing concerns.

So if you're wrong, you merely didn't engage in commerce with someone you believe to be a terrorist. There's nothing wrong or illegal about that. The agreement for free services by google doesn't mean google can't end the service at any time, and I'd bet the boiler plate for any paid service has a pressure release valve to end the service if google merely suspects you of engaging in illegal activity. In short, Google owes you nothing, and they're not your slave to provide you service despite believing you're a criminal.
Not out-of-the box, though, as recent GPUs need to have firmware loaded before being usable. IIRC, older AMD GPUs have firmware pre-loaded (and though they would be better performing with newer firmware, they can run as-is).
Art feels like the wrong word here. Art, to my mind, is impressive but ultimately gathers dust on a shelf. DF on the other hand is a complex machine that simulates whole worlds, and produces a different result each time you run it, and varies those results even more as you continue to interact.

Its a living world that grows and evolves with you, and shows its technical prowess not through anything as mundane as graphics, but instead through the very beating heart that makes it such an interesting machine. It demonstrates the author's skill, determination, and ongoing mastery of their craft. Dwarf Fortress is a masterpiece, but to call it simply art doesn't do it justice.

Losing is fun.
The issue is loading firmware with the kernel, which linux-libre won't (by design) do. You can run the full linux kernel instead (but not in Guix default channels).
I agree, this does feel like a sea change. Not to mention that it's coinciding with the end of the CCP being a more or less reasonable ruling body (video game bans, corruption purges, increased propaganda, etc.)
About the onboarding fees: the $40 fee is for full nodes (which were high powered enough to participate in consensus groups until July this year when the switch to validators).

Helium is working now to launch "light hotspots" the fee for which is $10. When light hotspots launch (retail price is ~$150) all current hotspots will get a software update.

Finally, the fees act as a spam/scam filter only while the proof of coverage concept is necessary. When (if) a sufficient volume of data is moving through the network, the fees will no longer be needed.
The comment about abuse is obviously a tongue-in-cheek retort to the claims he converted on his deathbed.
That's Apple's whole model. Glad you figured it out

Can we just go to one timezone already? We can keep some kind of work hours standardization if we like, perhaps based on current timezones or adjusted for coordinates, but holy moly does this waste so much time.

Unfortunately I don’t think most people are capable nor motivated enough to adopt this policy.
Yeah, that's the where the culture part comes in.

Apple adds features in attempt to lure people to 'upgrade' from a nearly identical product. Touchbar, face-id, 'apple silicon'. Most of this stuff doesn't change the value proposition of the core product. I'd say that the majority of Apple's user base is largely there for status reasons, and those people upgrade to keep the status they feel the brand grants them. As someone who isn't an Apple fan, but who uses some of their products, I am very aware there are exceptions, but I'd suspect that, like me, these exceptions also don't follow the press release driven upgrade cycle.

It's this type of consumerism that I'm personally not interested in. I want a tool, I want it be under my control. I want to be able to maintain it for its natural useful lifetime. That thinking does not belong in the culture Apple is fostering.

(Edit: and yeah, I get that Apple isn't the only culprit here, it's just that if a company seems to be fostering a culture that fits my ideals, I'm willing to compromise on 'slickness')

Long time Arch user, and loved it, but now loving Guix. I'll be writing a followup article about how I set up everything in Guix, but as I mentioned here the only wrinkle on the software side was Steam via Flatpak. The beta version of Flatpak has solved the Proton issues, and it works great for me. Nonguix also has a Steam package, but we need to figure out some newer sandboxing that Valve has done to get newer Proton working.

Edit: And thanks!
The argument "if I don't do it, someone else will" is not effective. Sure, someone else just might. But it doesn't have to be you (the theoretical FB employee). You can take your talent and brainpower elsewhere, especially if you're good enough to get hired by FB.
Yeah, they could have just chosen to be born white or rich! /s
> ..can properly incentivize more population growth ..

did the one child policy mess that up? What i understand is China is short on women and the population situation is going to get worse before it gets better.
I suspect that there were armies of crooked managers that acted in their narrow self interest to simply grab the cash that was borrowed, as much as they could. They then exported this cash, often by buying good to export as naked cash was watched more closely than paid exports good. At the destination or anywhere, these goods could be sold -often at a loss - the object is to gain liquidity outside of China. This cash then bought assets, property, shares on foreign exchanges, and the thieves and heirs now have an out-of-China estate. Often some fall guy stayed in China on whom the axe may fall in time. The entire Chinese economy may now have this huge mass of uncollectible debts(Evergrande = tip of an iceberg) and over the next few years we will watch Evergrande and the rest of them spiral down the drain. This is, in many ways, reminiscent of the breakup of the USSR as the body of the people see how their glorious leaders have royally screwed them.
Slaves in the Arab/Ottoman world could purchase their freedom, were not enslaved by race (rather as POWs), their children were free, had some legal protection, and had the potential for upward mobility (in rare cases slaves that became viziers, ministers, or kings). Also Arab society post-Islam highly encouraged freeing slaves (considered a major virtue/source of reward/form of penance).

May be more accurate to say slavery in the US was less brutal than slavery in the French Caribbean or Spanish Argentina.
There's a fairly simple reason for the superiority of digital computing, which is that error accumulation in analog is impossible to avoid, so the accuracy of results is limited by the quality of the components, which makes them large/expensive and even then maybe only 1% accurate. Programming them is less flexible, too. The applications are pretty niche.

The analog advantage is that you can directly implement differential equations, so they can be more power-efficient and faster than the equivalent digital simulation.
> For me noon becomes 6:43 pm (or something like that)

Interesting. At my place, the 23rd of September started at 00:00 and will end at 23:59. When did that date start at your place?

Also, that Sunday (September 26th) when I'm supposed to get my day off work — is that the day where it's Saturday a.m. and Sunday p.m, or is it the day when it's Sunday a.m. and Monday p.m.? I'm confused.
SQL to API
SeaORM – An async and dynamic ORM for Rust
I'm wondering about the transition dynamics, and the likelihood of a step-change.

Initially, petrol stations will see declining sales but still be profitable. But at some point, there will be few enough miles being driven in petrol-powerd cars that it will be come unprofitable. They will either need to find a new way of making money or close.

This will rapidly turn the tables and range anxiety will become a feature of petrol cars - where on the trip can I find a filling station? There might be a period of substantially increased petrol prices to keep the stations afloat. This will result in petrol-powered automobiles becoming stranded assets.

While this ideally happens slowly enough that most vehicles are used for their full useful lives, it seems more likely that this will be more of a step-change transition — and a lot of people will be left with big expensive lawn ornaments when the music stops.

The other big question is when this will occur. The Norwegians are likely very well off in this regard, as I presume that they can still sell their petrol cars to other areas in the EU. But what about when these charts apply to entire markets like the EU or North America?

Any insights?
Only sort of. In general each town had their own time keeper, and clock. Some would adjust their clocks to sun noon more often than others, and some were stricter about doing it. So you could never be sure that the next town west had noon later than this town (though in practice mechanical clocks were so bad that you couldn't measure it)

Also in some area time was set by sunset not local noon. (Jewish cares about when the sunsets - I suspect others as well)
Once upon a time language use made us special. But other animals have some sort of language.

Once upon a time tool use. Again, other animals do that.

I think "striving to become something more" means "learning." Or maybe yearning and learning. Other creatures learn.

We keep redefining intelligence such that only humans have "true Scotsman" intelligence. So far it's the only thing I know the makes us special.
OP, please compress your photos!

"numactl --membind option involved in Celebrity Love Triangle" ... that'll get it indexed.
Snopes is notorious for this. There are plenty of factually true/false things being dismissed as misleading because of some motivated reasoning. Or because of some rhetorical tricks that change the definitions of terms or how something is being assessed. Even something as simple as trying to compare the cost of a Big Mac between the US and Denmark gets muddled because they bring in some indexing measure or other hand-wavy things. https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/big-mac-cost-denmark/.

I think a rough analogue is how theologians use scholarly and textual methods to twist the meaning of scripture into whatever they want it to say.
Think of it as wall plugs. You wouldn't want every device and every power plant to require their own type of plug, right?

I can't imagine writing an interpreter for JS that handles all its autoconversion foibles, and now with several more generations of ECMAScript version features piled on (generally for the better), that's a lot more to handle.

And then have to do all the type inferencing to try to get performance, and then the dynamic compiling...
>Landfills aren’t exactly a solution because of toxins they leech into the surrounding soil.

1. how much "toxins" are we talking about here? You'd think that if they were toxic enough to cause problems with the surrounding soil when buried along with tons of other stuff, that they'll make the food they're in direct contact with absolutely inedible.

2. Landfills are lined to prevent this specific issue.

Yup. And there's exceptions galore too. You can just claim that free roaming will cause "financial hardship" and still get away with charging roaming fees anyway. Nearly every provider in Finland immediately applied the exemption and kept charging roaming fees anyway.

Goddamn 2021 and we're still pretending electrons cost more based on distance.
The author points out that Rogan (who I agree is not partisan) frequently has guests that the left loathe but rarely has guests that the left like and/or love.
The judge literally just ruled that it wasn't.
I don't think there will ever be a market in this universe where something is "winning on its own merit". We could have avoided a lot of deaths (hundreds of millions) if that were the natural order of things.
yup - that's China's #1 problem IMHO. This is exactly why literally less than 6 months ago they implemented a three-child policy in order to incentivize more population growth with family planning, the elimination of private tutoring, etc. in an effort to drastically reduce the cost to raise a child.

China has a lot of issues, one being a questionable government for those who are not Han, but China's existential issue is making sure the population of (young) people remains high and growing steadily.
I also like the Awair Element. Enough that I bought two.
If memory serves, the amount of roaming data you get is computed on the basis of 'what would you get if you paid roughly the same amount of money to a typical provider in the country where I am travelling', with some caps in both directions.

I live in Italy which has low prices, so I get 50 GB/mo for 8€ (and 200 GB/mo during the summer). Last summer I travelled to Austria and Czechia, I had 4GB available in both countries, and indeed checking their biggest ISPs' landing pages it looks like 8€ wouldn't have bought me even a gig! So 4GB is probably a mandatory minimum.
New for AWS Distro for OpenTelemetry Tracing Support Is Now Generally Available
If I remember correctly the regulation is against these devices being sold in Canada if they're not authorized, not about them being used in Canada. It would be really unpopular with the ISPs anyways and our regulators are completely captured here in Canada so I don't see them doing it even if they had to.

But yeah the law in Canada about IC regulation touches upon sale, not use. Manufacturers, distributers and importers are held responsible, not users or carriers.
I'm not sure exactly the Nvidia situation, I know people have it working but still a little bit of work. I think the drivers are fine, but also might need some changes to make sure Nvidia's GL libraries are used. But it does work. I, for one, am happy to be in AMD-land now.

(Good on you for admitting commenting before reading, and extra points for then reading! I jest, but we are all guilty)
> If Apple isn't a monopolist today and trends continue, it's only a matter of time before it unquestionably is.

That's exactly what the judge said.

> In sum, given the totality of the record, and its underdeveloped state, while the Court can
conclude that Apple exercises market power in the mobile gaming market, the Court cannot
conclude that Apple’s market power reaches the status of monopoly power in the mobile gaming
market. That said, the evidence does suggest that Apple is near the precipice of substantial
market power, or monopoly power, with its considerable market share. Apple is only saved by
the fact that its share is not higher, that competitors from related submarkets are making inroads
into the mobile gaming submarket, and, perhaps, because plaintiff did not focus on this topic.
To nitpick, it’s really Steam Play (Proton) + Lutris (for games not available in Steam) + Wine that have already fixed gaming on Linux. With those three you can play ~90% of games now. The Steam app is already widely in use, but it remains to be seen how successful Steam Deck will be.

And Linux Desktop is already here, it’s just not evenly distributed. Lots of innovators and early adopters, aka the cool kids, are now on Linux Desktop, including for gaming thanks to the above. It’s only a matter of time till the mainstream and late adopters follow.
It is very well known within the industry that facebook employees have a lot of power to change things: "Move fast and break things", "be bold" etc.. It is very open and democratic company. I'd guess that employees at facebook have much more power than say in google, let alone in apple.
Roof Repair in North York
Our far reaching and remarkable services of roof repair in North York are essentially undefeatable as we are the experts of roofing services. It is important to schedule roof repair in North York the second you notice a roof leak. Whenever left unattended, even a little hole can make significant harm your home. Luckily, roof repair in North York is considerably more moderate than a full roof replacement.
Outrage creeps in, but it's not really a good fit for here and I wish we'd get a bit better about posting and biting ragebait.

I think there are several different ideological clusters on in regarding "information freedom"-type ideas. Having just one would be no fun, and a bad reflection of the community. I'm no libertarian, but I think that that trying to censor away the problem is inevitably not going to stop the problems described. It will make them less visible though, and maybe push them to other platforms. It's more of a "moving the homeless on" solution, and similarly it's good for the individual service providers, but bad for the society as a whole.

Hence I think you can be unhappy that the content exists, but still not approve of online censorship.

I mean, I have an integrated water block on my CPU as well... it just makes sense these days. It's just hilarious to me that I have the good cooler on the part that's less in need.

The external thing is a decent idea, but I just have way too many junk drawers full of random shit in my little apartment, so I'd rather put it where it belongs, and leave it connected. There's really no harm in that, plus it can even help with air flow if you do it right.

On a tangential note: I once knew a professor with a completely passively liquid cooled rig. Just buy a big enough radiator (about the size of yours) and test things out for yourself. If you have a cool enough room, it should be fine.

Meanwhile, now I'm trying to wire up an old mobo to a side table in the living room, so I guess I don't have a 5.25" bay (yet) either. Or any fans.
