Sadly it seems like a sizable amount of the population plans to keep up the "temporary" measures forever. I can only assume it's tribally motivated at this point where it's simply not rational anymore for vaccinated people who account for <1% of deaths to go around in space suits staying six feet away from everyone and continuing to go overboard with sanitization. I predict they'll still be doing this in five years and still try to shame the rest of us who moved on.
CNN is no good. Journalists describing Joe Rogan taking horse dewormer when he had a prescription for Ivermectin is indefensible.
Lenovo bought the x86 line, including all facilities and staff, from IBM, and produced last few generations of IBM branded devices.

The Thinkpad design team is still operating from the same ex-IBM facilities in Japan, iirc, even keeping some place-related naming in the internal codenames (X220/X230 and related T420/T430 were "Nozomi", iirc based on my spelunking in firmware)
> The possibility for authoritarian attitudes seems high.

Possibly, but I don't think you can point to an "aha!" clause and come to a conclusion.

These things aren't deterministic. A village like this isn't strictly defined by its rules. The people there, and the culture they develop are they biggest factor. A religious oriented community will not be like a socialist one, or like one formed by former college friends.

Rules can be unimportant, but communities aren't legible like that. A "please leave" clause can be used totally different depending on the people involved.

In any case, consensus-based systems tend to get mocked and reduced quite a lot. The thing to understand about these ways of making decisions is that it's premised on the existence of a community of people and a culture of making decisions this way. It doesn't necessarily work at an AGM or whatnot, but that doesn't mean it doesn't work anywhere.
As a former Californian the storm is tiny by East Coast standards but I sure hope it delivers
I think it is quite possible there is few if any binary blobs. I have a Lenovo X1 and everything pretty much works out of the box on base Arch Linux (and Debian before that). I think it also helps that my X1 has Intel graphics, Intel Wi-Fi, etc which has very good support which I know is not a given for others (e.g. Broadcom Wi-Fi, Nvidia graphics, et al). It is easily the best Linux experience I've ever had.
An important trait of startup founders is a decent EQ, and relating to other people. This is interesting news in that area.
Quid est veritas?

Politics is preference, talks of truth are usually a pretense to strengthen a reason for a given preference.
> Desired state seems like a stretch, but the cynical part of me does wonder sometimes whether having visible homelessness around is seen as inevitable proof that the capitalist system is irredeemable and must be replaced.

I think these are two separate variables and Capitalism when properly regulated works extremely well (it has moved millions from poverty in China and did the same in the US - wages went up by 350% from 1930-1970).
With about $100b net worth each, I’m going to guess they feel just fine.

Key: well-regulated. These giants are anything but. And in the past several years Chrome basically said "I couldn't give two craps about Safari's or Firefox's opinion, we're going to ship our own APIs and call them web standards".
Tesco's share price has done well recently because of take-over speculation after the recent Morrison's buy-out. Other than this it's performed relatively poorly for the past 10 years.

We're doing exactly this in our language libraries for Tangram. Our core machine learning code is written in Rust and we use a native add-on so people can make predictions directly from their javascript apps. In Python, this is incredibly common: NumPy, LightGBM, XGBoost are written in C/C++ and exposed to Python.

https://bearblog.dev has about 5kb pages uncompressed and is a similar idea just not self hosted
The news has existed to drive public opinion for over a century, before television even existed. Hell, there was even a book written in 1922 named "Public Opinion" about the very subject. The blurb about it on Wikipedia echoes truer today than it did at the time https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_Opinion_(book)

The introduction describes man's inability to interpret the world: "The real environment is altogether too big, too complex, and too fleeting for direct acquaintance" between people and their environment. People construct a pseudo-environment that is a subjective, biased, and necessarily abridged mental image of the world, and to a degree, everyone's pseudo-environment is a fiction. People "live in the same world, but they think and feel in different ones."
Biden Job Approval Steady at Lower Level
Most researchers are interested in the truth. There are incentives for people to be lazy and fast, which leads to bad science, but most of the time they would rather be right. They'll even defend bad results, but out of self protection rather than outright intent to mislead.

So there are plenty of problems, but of an entirely different character from the outright propaganda by non-scientists practicing ideological confirmation bias.
The problem arises when there is no way to differentiate between the user classes. And while I enjoy computing freedom, I’m not exactly proclaiming its value when I have to deal with a DDoS or hear about people getting ransomwared. I know things like Mirai also exist, and that user error isn’t the only ransomware vector, but poor computing habits absolutely fuel such problems and they cause pain for society as a whole.

I have no idea what the answer is, other than having Linux et al be the place for free computing (protected by its various barriers to entry) while the consumer OS space eventually becomes increasingly locked down. The only other ideas I have are dumb ones like requiring regular examination/certification/licensure to be able to use the “developer” version of Windows or something.
Same. I haven't tried that many different vendors, but Linux on Lenovo's is by far the most supported of all the Asus, HP, Sony, and random others I've tried. At least with onsite support the technical person understand and knows what they're working with.
AT&T fiber basically alreadydoes this. You cannot connect without their crappy routerbox that authenticates to the network every so often. Some people have created work arounds but they all requie the att box be plugged in somewhereand forward its certificates
One problem with these is that they might be less useful than just shouting for help.

There’s also a term that bartenders learn. A certain name asked for (I forget). I feel that one might work better because it is targeted knowledge for women and bartenders.

Nevertheless, there’s a logical complication here I struggle to reconcile. I’m guessing this is a very well trodden problem space in cryptography.

Yes, I agree that remote alone is not the complete picture. More anecdata: I work for a medium sized distributed company and we have seen a decent amount of churn. I have also been involved in the hiring process for backfills/replacements. Candidates have specifically mentioned that they’re leaving their current company because of RTO demand. The main reasons I believe causing so much job hopping now: RTO demand, money, new remote opportunities, demand for senior engineers, nature of existing churn in software business.
Great article, though he's benefitting from a specific slice of Linux users that are great to work with.

On the other end of the spectrum, try releasing a php plugin for Wordpress, OpenCart, Magento, etc. I released a mildly popular, open-source, free add on in this space. The Linux users there are decidedly less technical, but still doing it themselves.

What I got for "bug reports" was mostly terrible, few details/logs/etc. And a weird entitlement thing where people had really high support expectations over something that was open source and free. Even a few expletive-laden emails. I did receive a few really helpful reports, pull-requests, and thank you emails...but they were very much the exception.

I personally think that it is right to be pretty skeptical of ALL news outlets at the moment. Am I saying that none of them get it right ever? Of course not.

I would also ask anyone who is upset about this article calling out CNN to reflect on why they are upset. Is it because CNN is associated with being an ally of the left? I would ask the same if anyone feeling the same way about Fox/your favorite news outlet here.

I didn’t read the linked article because I don’t really care if the fact in the headline is true or false. It doesn’t matter.

What I worry about these days relates to the first sentence I wrote. Damn near every story from cable/entertainment news requires a deeper look and is usually written in such a way to inspire outrage and or binary tribalism. If that doesn’t scare you a little I would humbly ask you to reconsider.

Depending on the demographic, they can: get caught up in during some (possibly unrelated, likely automated) attack, click the wrong ad, or load the wrong common page with JS.
Its obviously of a different magnitude, but it's interesting (scary) to see the parallel that once a state wants to do something, regardless of the morality, companies line up with proposals on how to do it, without any thought for if they should be helping repress people or violate their rights. I hope when we wake up from our collective delusion the companies that are enabling this will be held accountable, I also know there is no chance of that
Nitrile gloves have better puncture resistance and better tactile sensing than vinyl gloves. This makes them preferred for patient interaction.

I suppose new vinyl is better than covertly recycled, contaminated, and leaking nitrile though.
Yes, the "simpler" representation is TAI, but we still live in a human world, and with humans entering and reading the data we must conform to their ways in some things.

The binary and text encodings both store in Gregorian so that codecs don't have the added responsibility of converting between representations (keeps the implementations simple).

TAI is like lye: useful, but not meant to be handled by humans. And since this format is designed for human usability, human time wins the day.
I believe "Debian GNOME", "Manjaro KDE", or "guix sway" are very valid answers to "what system are you running?", don't you? I wouldn't list all userspace components for sure, but some can be relevant to include.

"GNU/Linux" is a relevant label to me so i know we're talking about a system which has common POSIX-inspired utilities... "Linux" can be Android for all i know, which is a very different system.

As someone who frequently works with datetime data, I always felt that in the format YYYY-MM-DDTHH:mm±ZZ:ZZ, it should read "this local time plus the timezone offset gives you utc", not " utc plus the timezone offset gives you this local time", so basically invert the signal from how it is now.
There's definitely a strong psychological component to inflation. And an inflationary mindset is probably needed for hyperinflation to materialize.

But I think increasing money supply is a necessary component for hyperinflation as well.

At least, in all modern examples of hyperinflation I've reviewed, there has always been a component of monetizing the debt/deficit.

Are there examples of hyperinflation where the money supply was largely fixed? I would be very curious/interested in that.
If you need to keep revenue graphs going up and to the right, because that's the primary KPI your unit is judged on, at some point it's technically easier to handicap competition than improve your own offering.

I’m not sure if it’s a difference in how I structure queries (I often structure queries with “”, site: limiters etc), what type of things I’m searching for (often technical/troubleshooting documents but also videos), or what.

They were not depleted suddenly. Cost of extracting oil and gas is steadily rising. This will soon lead to a situation where there's still enough oil in the Earth, but it's unviable to extract it because you have to invest more energy to extract it than you can receive from burning the extracted oil.

We're almost there. E.g. in Russia all new oil deposits found in recent years are in polar areas where extracting is difficult and expensive.

2. It is amazing how beginning of the super crisis coincided with the pandemia. I remember that in the beginning of the 2019 I said to several of my friends that huge crisis will hit the world at the end of the year. But I couldn't even imagine what would happen in the beginning of 2020.

Anyway, governments would want to get rid of extra mouths, especially young people with lots of energy but no way to put it into something productive.

It's especially clear when you start noticing that NATO forces are concentrating near Russian borders and amount of NATO military exercises on Russian borders has increased several times.

Russia has a big population and huge amounts of mineral resources. If NATO manages to capture Russian territory and exterminate most of the population in the process, it would give maybe 10-50 more years for Europe to adapt (e.g. build thermonuclear or some viable green energy sources), because currently Russia uses much of oil and gas and other resources for its own consumption.

There're other countries that could be the next potential targets. Two birds with one stone: turn young people who can't find a place in life into war into cannon fodder and potentially capture resources to extend the agony of the over-consuming economy.

I’m sure I sound like a crazy person now but I think the matter of degree is a matter of how convinced you are that your news is the right one.

Fox viewers likely think the exact same thing.

Not that all truth is subjective but the choice on what and how to report definitely is.
> It will now more often of course as the information gets out.

AGAIN you are arguing from a conspiracy as a prior. There is no "information" to "get out". The car stores telemetry and sensor input. We always knew that. This is a story about someone figuring out how to recover it.
Neon maintainer here, happy to answer any questions folks might have!

It's a pretty exciting time for Neon. We're nearly feature-complete for a 1.0 release, which will come with a bunch of benefits and should help us build momentum for future improvements:

* No more legacy backend -- just one simple and clean way to use Neon, fully audited for safety.
* Strong ABI and API stability guarantees.
* Convenient APIs for general-purpose multithreading and creating custom async Node events.
* Ergonomic and modern use of JS promises, which interact beautifully with async Rust code.

Some of the things I'm looking forward to exploring post-1.0 is even more ergonomics and performance improvements.

> Most Windows users don't even know what a bug report is.

... or a telemetry.

To be fair, given a well-known application (paid especially), users may be more inclined to try to complain about some annoying/unexpected behavior. Just too often it goes onto a forum, so noone knows if this results in a bugreport somewhere.
I get that we're basically arguing over the Christensen Innovator's Dilemma, and I acknowledge that at some point ML-driven solutions will cross the 'good enough' threshold that eliminates certain swaths of work wholesale, but I don't think that an increase in the demand for software development and automating away most of today's software development related tasks spells a decrease in software development pay, any more than desktop publishing was a harbinger for fewer graphic designers or lower pay for graphic design work.
And yet it's devoid of truth. How many times has Google proposed some ridiculous new API that Mozilla has immediately and publicly rejected, often with strong language? I can count at least 2 off the top of my head from the past year alone.

Explaining the economic reasons why things are done is always seen as an endorsement of them. I don't think that's justified.

I just don't find it that interesting anymore. The word "news" used to mean something that was new. Now everything is so politicized that it just means what's the latest update from a political faction. In this case, CNN is pretty much guaranteed to show the Biden administration in a good light and argue their agenda which seems to be more infrastructure and plenty of vaccines. Oh, and Trump is still bad.
