Apologies for misgendering you. My opinion that you come off like a windows fangirl was mostly due to the other rant you linked in the sixel-tmux rant: https://github.com/csdvrx/cutexterm#wait-i-thought-people-sa...

Here you mention some other things unrelated to terminals, and I was mostly addressing those. It seems to me you want a specific type of experience on Linux, but you can't get that, so therefore dismiss the merits of Linux. I think a lot of your impressions on Linux come from using an X11 based setup instead of Wayland. Completely different beasts, and I think a lot of your grievances would be solved by the latter.

For me, I cannot go back to Windows, ethical reasons aside: Sway on Wayland is perfect for me, and it's what I want out of my computing experience.

I actually agree with a lot that is written in those rants, particularly the VTE and gnome terminal situation. It's just your comments on windows vs linux came across as very personal imo, so I suppose I have retorted here with also a somewhat personal rant.

Also, I don't think either platform has many good terminal choices. Besides mintty, I don't think there are that many good (platform exclusive) terminal emulators on Windows. And on Linux, Foot is one of the few that meets my criteria, including top tier Sixel support (though Wezterm meets my criteria too if it wasn't so slow, hopefully it gets faster). But, for example, I could never really like mintty if I was forced to use Windows, because it lacks features I want.

What I'm trying to say: different needs, different use cases, different tastes. Sorry that my original rant came off so negatively to you and that I wasn't able to convey this point I was trying to make.
God, Twitter sucks. I can't even navigate to Carmack's profile (https://twitter.com/ID_AA_Carmack) from the tweet without hitting a sign-in block. I had to copy the URL and then paste it into my browser.

There is no allergy. The advice given is as basic as it gets. That’s what people already have been doing for years and decades. It’s comically insufficient. what else can be done? How do we deal with the reality of mistakes?

Bug journals, code reviews, prioritizing fixes, tooling support, enough sleep and enough time! If you give me time, then I come up with more and more failure modes, checks, analysis, improved design, better tests. Who pays for that?

This is great for a simple monte carlo simulation!

Choose a finished tasks time randomly, once per remaining task in the queue, and add this up to be a single estimate. Do this 1000 times or so and get an estimated distribution of completion times for the current queue.

This type of thing is covered extensively in Evidence Based Scheduling[0], and is one of the reasons I still think FogBugz ' power is misunderstood.

Monte Carlo simulations are often just a relatively easy way of doing numerical integrations. But it sounds fancy.
Where are the checks and balances to prevent that from happening? The public discourse is the system of checks and balances in a democracy that prevents that kind of authoritarian subversion. If you prevent people from speaking out and shape their opinions, who is able to say something when it goes too far? This is not an effort to aid democracy, it's a direct attack against it.
We don't use democracy in the correct way. The true form of democracy does not use voting to determine the leaders, but a raffle. The voting was added some time around the french revolution, when people learned that having power is great and they wanted to increase their probability to not lose it.

There is a trend now to replace goto-like exceptions with compiler-supplied error checks like you describe:

http://open-std.org/JTC1/SC22/WG21/docs/papers/2018/p0709r0....

This is likely inspired by the Error monad in Haskell, and the doc might say so explicitly (I don't remember).

Racist tendencies is just tendencies that promote in-group/out-group thinking, right?

There was a lot to cover in OPs post, but after reading it one of my first thoughts was "well sure, in a racially homogenous society, racism won't develop" ... which leads to:

"People think of you differently based on what job you do and your parents do, what dialect you speak, what part of the town you live in, or what village/city you live/lived in, how wealthy you are, what sect of religion you follow"

It appears to me that racism, racial profiling, is just the predominate form of profiling in America. Which makes sense, when you look at the history of the country. In countries which are not racially diverse, different reasons for discrimination occur.
What I’ve seen is that a product is being designed with both ARM and RISC-V cores. The RISC-V cores outperformes the equivalent ARM cores and have no licensing costs. It’s used if it’s a management core not usually programmed by the customer or specialized low power and/or low latency processing. The ARM cores are used for TrustZone, FPU and DSP functionality and for the extensive IDE, debugging and trace support.

I can see RISC-V gradually taking over, since it now has a foot in the door. But it’ll take a long time and depends on third party development.
Either the founder isn't aware, then they just get egulfed in the new culture until they have, at some point, no power left. Or they are among the worst of the pack and drive the new culture. Given that Zuck somehow managed to retain 50+% of voting rights until now, I would put him in the second group. Jeff would be the same.

And then you would have the truly exceptional people, that manage to combine the ruthless drive needed to grow a successful company, care about their people and have the capabilities to keep those bad actors out, or at least in check. I saw maybe 1.5 of these people in management functions, middle management that is. Not sure of those black swan unicorns exist as founders so.

You're correct in that employers are not supposed to confiscate salaries or passports, but rest assured, both are very common practices, as are things like working in multiple households, having to work outside the home, etc.

IIRC, you can grok this with linear transforms:

given X = [[1,0],[0,0]] and Y = [[0,0],[0,1]], aXY = 0 for all a (because XY == [[0,0],[0,0]]).

But, given V = [[1,1],[1,1]] (or, in fact, a lot of other matrices/linear transforms), XVT = [[0,1],[0,0]], which blocks all vertical components and rotates the horizontal component 90 degrees. So if you imagine light as a wave with a horizontal and vertical component, and the polarizing filter applies a linear transform to the light.

Real-world problems tend also not to have existing comprehensive test suites that you can just instantly verify your implementation with. Writing the tests is not only something that usually has to be done by the same individual or team writing the implementation, but also can suffer from the same pitfalls as writing the implementation (incorrect assumptions, missed cases, simply doing the wrong thing, etc.)

> 1. The US doesn't do this.

US killed tens, maybe hundreds of millions directly and indirectly. Starting from the very beginning of its existence (genocide of natives). Ending with Libya, which is a failed state now, with slaves and anarchy, thanks to the help of US and NATO.

> 2. This is an apt description of USSR history, which is of course Russian history.

Russia (and USSR) was not always right. But it never genocided whole populations, there was never colonies of Russia that were exploited like African or Asian colonies. USSR, for example, pumped a lot of its income not into the Russian population but in the limitrophe republics (Estonia, Latvia, Uzbekistan, etc). It is not the same.

> es, I'm sure the free media all over the world

Free media, LOL. People need to live somewhere, you know buy or rent an apartment or house. Buy food, pay for electricity and heat. Nobody is free from that.

So journalist, you know, usually work for some organization that pays them salary. That organization determines what they should write about and how, where to put accents in the articles.

There're not many such organizations. They all belong to some mega-corporations, holdings, etc, that in turn belong to a very limited circle (no more than 10 persons worldwide).

Where would the truth appear in this scheme of things?

Are you really that naive?
> Additionally, you need to pin your DBs ("statefulset workloads") to certain Nodes based on the AZs since a block storage like an EBS cannot really be attached from Zone 1 to Zone 2 automatically.

Having Postgres replicate the data across AZs or run Ceph on top of EBS to do it at the storage level are options. The complexity of setup is made simpler by running their respective operators.
> So then if only companies that don't have social good as their primary goals are the ones that would ever exist in the first place

Or alternatively, we could try to view this as the root problem and try to fix it.

Edit: Note there is also a difference between "not having social good as their primary goal" and working effectively against the social good, whether intentional or not.

Edit2: Explanation of the downvote would be nice.
This is addressed in the discussion of the study they completed. This wasn't a formal survey and shouldn't have been interpreted as such. WSJ were the ones who contextualized this as a valid study.

Yeah, I do not think I have a good source at hand, this is a fun fact from an E&M lecture we had.

I also wonder if anyone actually experimented with microwaving their dinner at 10GHz or if that was just an educated guess. X-band magnetrons for radars are widely available though, so I would not be surprised if that was coming from practical experience...
Most people saying that 137 is too much get responded with "this the only way Tesla can learn". Sure, I agree with that, but is 100% of the fine being awarded to the victim? That doesn't look right, it makes it a honeypot (incentive) for future trials. Even one tenth of that would be too high for a work issue that lasted one 1 year, why make the victim rich (and his decendants)? Compensation doesn't mean windfall/lottery.
In my personal experience, most bugs come from changing a working code, especially at a refactoring. It mixes assumptions in an unpredictable way, because of chaotic code rearrangements and lots attention required to do that correctly. First-time code is much easier to challenge (if you ignore repl development phase which is not “code” yet).
I sort of agree with you although for different reasons. The problem with the MC approach IMO is not really that it is also an estimate, estimates are fine. However doing a Monte Carlo simulation is only reasonable if we have a good model. So now we have moved from we can't estimate (intuitively I guess) to how to find a good model, that is not trivial and the time spend on finding and verifying the model might take more time than what you are actually trying to do (just an (gu-)estimate on my part)

Facebook is the one doing the controlling. You don't see the majority in the newsfeed. They pick the extreme and pump that to you so it looks like all your friends agree with you and all your enemies are awful people. This promotes engagement and silos.

It's an inadvertent global re-education scheme on a massive scale whose results we see every day. There was political collaboration and discussion in the past. Facebook essentially made that a non-starter. If the news feed was closer to what people said or even like reddit where the majority vote goes up then there wouldn't be a problem.

> We really, truly, need to stop with this fantasy and come back to a manageable reality. Urgently. This is getting silly.

You're truly living in a fantasy world if you imagine it's possible to keep the current rate of CO2 production and just adapt to the effects in the long term.

We first need to transition the economy to renewables, drastically reduce production and consumption of many goods, get rid of the incentive structures that have kept things in this state. We could then hope to reach 0 emissions, which would mean maybe 2-4 degrees of warming. Catastrophic, but not world ending. To live in this world, we will indeed have to start looking at adaptation.

If we do it your way, with no reduction in emissions, bit focusing on adaptation, we'll be looking at 6-10 degrees of warming, which there would definitely be no adapting around.

Exact same experience here.

I can easily go from 8 in the evening to 11-12 the next day without eating. Maybe a bit of water or some caffeinated sugar-free drink in the morning.

BUT, if I eat a bowl of oats (as recommended) at 8, I'm _hungry_ at 10, like starving-hungry.

I can also just eat a large-ish lunch and go until evening pretty easily.
Thank you. This works so much better that tapping on the word to place the cursor.
What, you're saying the official Singapore government site doesn't say maids are brutally exploited? Say it ain't so! It does, however, say that "you are not covered [by the Employment Act] if you are employed as a: Domestic worker".

I'd deny that our objects do not live in a real space. Spacetime is real-valued.

The issue isn't the reals, but that "solid object" isn't defined properly, ie., the sets under question don't have well-defined volumes.

As soon as you fix that problem, via measure theory, the paradox resolves. You dont need to ditch real numbers.

This thread is pure totalitarian thinking. You think you know the Truth (TM) because there's a "science" label on it but in fact you're listening to humans that may or may not be good at science (or are just lying to advance an agenda).

When people think they know the Truth and start to discriminate society based on that it will ALWAYS end with camps.

This doesn't seem to take into account different codebases. At work I may have a decade old piece of code that has been partially rewritten multiple times and gets constant updates - it's also communicating with the outside world in many ways. The skill required to manage code like this without any bugs or even compiler errors is immense. But writing a 1000 line brand new project from scratch in a sane language is probably doable if you invest enough time - remember no compiler errors are permitted, so you have to write this in a basic text editor, then run the compiler and get 0 errors and bugfree software.

I can't stop picking on the 0 compiler errors thing. I could write brainf*ck and get 0 compiler errors, but no guarantees on the buginess of the code. I could also write Rust and the compiler throws errors when an assumption of mine was wrong, or I was trying to do something that the compiler does not yet support, or the codebase was large enough that all of it didn't fit into my mindmap. Not sure how to fully mitigate those causes.
"Weight" historically referred to mass, in common speech dating back forever. It’s the Germanic word which has been used throughout the history of English, whereas "mass" comes from Latin via French, like 5–6 centuries ago. The two words are almost exact synonyms, in historical/colloquial use.

Both historically and today, a "pound" (Roman libra) is a unit of mass. People use a pound-force as a unit of force only in somewhat specialized contexts.

At some point in the relatively recent past, someone (not sure who) decided that we needed to have 2 separate words for mass vs. force, and we should keep the Latin word for mass and use the Germanic word to mean force.

Now pedantic people are constantly insisting that using the standard English word weight to mean mass is "wrong".
I think it's possible to run a profitable social media company that does care.

That's probably true but not at Facebook's scale. If the employees are willing to accept the argument "We could have increased profit but chose not to in the interests of users.", because everyone's bonuses and stock value is based on profit, you'd need to hire a lot of people who are happy to trade some amount of personal gain for user wellbeing. That would be difficult when you have tens of thousands of people.

Alternatively, maybe it'd be possible to run Facebook without giving the staff equity or bonuses. That would take a huge shift in the way tech renumeration works though.
I don't get what thought that picture is supposed to provoke.
You should really take a look at FoundryVTT. Its a one-time purchase of $50 if you are willing to self-host it. I've been using it for the past year or so, and I've had almost no issues (none that reading the docs or asking my players to refresh the page didn't fix). The 3rd party support is great, some publishers (Fria Ligan at least but others too) sell modules for their rules systems on Foundry.

Uh... I replied to OP which is for individual.

In the scale of country, East Asia did quite well without any policies (exclude China, they have a special policy on it). Just keep raising the price of estate, and then birth rate would drop and never come back.

For the part of energy, according to the EPA report[1], the emissions by electricity and heat are around 25% in total. If we want to reduce 20% in total, we need to close 80% of fossil plants. For me, it is nearly impossible. There are some countries may not have the land or safe area to place nuclear/renewable plants. (e.g. Singapore...) I know there is a plan for Singapore to buy the clean solar energy from Australia, but it only covers 1/5 of the consumption. Also, there must be security issues for transferring power between countries.
