Lol!

Continuing this analogy, what has happened is that the swap space for containers has filled, and it now has a form of compression applied to it, so that five containers can now be stored in the space where two could be beforehand.

(Edit: let's hope the swap space doesn't become encrypted.)

I wonder when the out-of-memory-killer process will start up? What would it look like--just not shipping anything to the US for a few months?

> You are basically saying "I wish that people writing FOSS stopped doing that."

Yes. I wish people would stop doing FOSS and started doing source avaialble instead of open source and charged companies money. I wish people who built super valuable software got properly rewarded for their efforts.

I know it's odd that someone doesn't think FOSS is great. But some of us honestly think it's the worst thing in tech. It's the cause of so many hassles for companies and open source maintainers alike. It seems like every month some open source maintainer has to tell people that they're not getting paid for this and they don't have time to work on it properly because they have a day job and a life. So they have very limited time to work on this project. Then we have maintainers who tell people they don't really want pull requests because pull requests are work since they need to maintain them. All of this is solved when people are paid for thier work and it's not a hobby project.

> That makes the very naive assumption that a FOSS project that has grown to be successful would have reached the same status if it were "source available".

The thing is, it wouldn't even need to reach the same status to generate a livable income. Seriously, if you have a project that you sell to revenue generating companies for 1k a year each. And you only get 75 companies using it heavily instead of 30,000 companies. You're good to live off that and work on that project full time.
The point is not that we all know politics equally well.

Thr point is that, in politics, a credentialed expert doesn't really have any advantage in predictive power over a reasonably well-informed layman.

Statistician and market researcher Jim Manzi made this point roughly ten years ago. It's not a knock against the social sciences either. The point is that you can't generalize in the social sciences the way you can with harder sciences because the causal factors are so complex.
This is just crazy. There are no chassis to move the containers. It's not like companies are like "yeah, just hang on to it for us", there's simply no way of moving any meaningful amount out of the ports. /r/supplychain and /r/prepperintel have thread after thread about this. Also, these cumulative fines aren't going to do much to move the containers any faster but that $100 fine the first day, $200 more the second day, $300 more the third day... are just going to rapidly bankrupt companies.

I personally work in the air side of international freight, I think I'm on week 28 or 29 of 60-70 hour weeks. I'm working 6 days a week, 11~ hours a day, and even the air industry is starting to get behind - and we're not even to peak yet, normally this is the calm before the storm, so I can only imagine what sort of logistical hell we're going to see in November and December.

Serenity now.
I don't see in the article how they control for the IQ drop they think occurs (up to 5 points) being the same as the error margin for IQ tests (+/- 5 points).

How does that work.. ? It's not like IQ tests are considered that reliable or unbiased.

Also looking for studies.. they're observing the IQ drops in children who were exposed to excessive flouride beyond what's supposed to be in water. US levels all fall into the "low exposure" range in these studies.

It's a bit early for a whitewash, does this mean that we've now seen all the bad news from FB that we should expect? To make it easier I always link the name of the entity to the old name to ensure that their past stays with them. So Blackwater, Xe and Academi are all the same to me, no matter how hard they try to twist their way out of it, ditto for Alphabet and Google, Accenture and Andersen, Worldcom and MCI, Philip Morris and Altria and so on. It's akin to someone moving to the next town over and changing their name, a companies' past should stay with it, rather than that we allow them to whitewash it and treat their reputational wreckage as just another expense item.
Awesome! I'm in the US.

I gave up on some SIP/VOIP stuff because this (and other protocols) generate lag etc when you are going device > NAT > server > NAT > device route, vs device to device.

I just need ONE prefix, but a group of 5 or 8 would be amazing (then you could use the default IPv6 scheme for addressing things).

Maybe there is hope, the US lags in some of this a fair bit. There should be enough space it would seem.

Don’t you think this being a factor is exactly what should and could be addressed? (That is what my comment was about.)

If have-nots who are black miss out on financial aid (or something else) because they are black, then giving financial aid based on have/have-not status without considering the race sounds like the safest, most sustainable, and (importantly) most respectable way of going about it.

Explicitly avoiding favoring based on race strikes me as the surest way to eliminate the disparity (that which accumulated from decades of exactly such favoring), while attracting least pushback from across the political aisle.

I can’t imagine any reason for not doing this except for short-term optics, minority votes, etc.

1. Labor participation rates have been expected to decline and has been forecasted for quite a while now.

2. The pandemic acted as a forcing function on those who could retire or were close to retiring into retiring.

3. The pandemic has forced change in care services, forcing workers, mostly woman, to fill in the gap and care for their children and other family members, preventing their return to the workforce.

4. People don't want to work for what amounts to slave wages with no hope of professional advancement and higher wages.

In the US as well, though the system is geared toward hiding that fact.

Jury nullification is a thing, though if you admit to have heard about it you'll be booted off the jury.

Judges may not have as much leeway in sentencing as they used to, but they do for verdicts, though no judge likes to be reversed on appeal, the threat of which tends to constrain verdicts and opinions (which sometimes seems to lead to more creativity in findings of fact).
So, I'll agree with that but with a caveat, because I have a loved one who was part of a licensed esketamine (s-ketamine) trial. It certainly can pretty much just "turn off" some depression and I've seen it do that (even somehow avoiding problems from accidentally forgetting to take the other meds soon after).

But it can also cause powerful and disturbing psychosis. In our case, I woke up at knife point to someone driven to tears by a psychosis telling them to kill me. I managed to de-escalate that without any harm done, but suffice it to say, caution is strongly advised with such things.

There's a whole lot of BS in NFTs at the moment. But, there is one thing they are good for: Everyone is crying out for a decentralized, interoperable metaverse that is not walled-off and owned by corporations. OK. So, how does anything of monetary value interoperate in that scenario?

So, you can make your metaverse service, I can make mine, and we can both interoperate by supporting each other's APIs. But, some of our services cost us significant money to provide and have market value to our users. We can make with work out for everyone by recognizing ownership of certain NFTs as decentralized verification that a given user has rights to things of value in our services.

We don't have a lot of examples of this so far because corporations are incentivized to wall you off from their competition and the public has not the means to securely control and verify value outside of the blessings of the corporations. But, now we can do it without them.

Many people in the US don’t have access to dental care. Dentists managed to stay at arms length from insurance in general and many employers don’t offer it.

For poor people, access is difficult. Dentistry is optional in Medicaid and many states opt out. My state Medicaid funds dental, but in my county (pop 350k), there are 4 dentists that accept Medicaid dental.
That might not be entirely coincidental.

Following a new keynote from augmented reality company Meta on Thursday, scientists continue to investigate how Epic Games' MetaHuman technology has become categorically superior to real-life actors in terms of expressed humanistic qualities, seemingly overnight.

Responding to questions surrounding the unfortunate name clash, Epic Games CEO Tim Sweeney denied this would cement his position as a present day Eldon Tyrell: "We never said that. 'More human than human' isn't our motto and never was; today it just happens to be true. The technology is still in its early stages, and it clearly isn't there yet."

When asked for further clarification, Sweeney elaborated with candor: "It's eerie, you know? From the outset, we knew their strategy was to bring the one-dimensional qualities of stock photo models to life, we just didn't think they'd succeed this early."

"It's really made us question our product strategy as a whole." said Sweeney. "We're trying to make fake humans realistic, and they're trying to make real humans fake. What's their end game? It's kind of a mind fuck, honestly."

When reached for comment Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg declined to be interviewed for this article, electing instead to maintain an unblinking gaze as his arms continued to awkwardly gesture with sterile insincerity.
Fair point, I’ll swap it in.
The term "whataboutism" is often used (like in this case) to shield against legitimate criticism. The above poster is not claiming that FB is not bad or should not be criticized - he is saying that he thinks the media treatment of contemporary moral issues is not weighted properly. Maybe you still disagree with him, but simply calling "whataboutism" muddies the water.

> But that’s also weird, because I would figure that people who care about the brand tend to not build their own computers (is this assumption wrong?), instead usually opting for the fruit brand.

Mini-ITX computers are a niche among a niche market of PC builders. Form factor is inherently a consideration being made when you build one, given the added difficulty and compromises one must make to build one. In that sense, it's pretty obvious that people building such computers would care about the aesthetics of the case they're building in. This also isn't terribly expensive in the world of boutique mini itx cases, where one can easily spend double that on some of the more exclusive ones.

You can use a flouride rinse. Most kids with braces use a flouride rinse. I'm not sure how long you're supposed to use it for, I think it's 45 seconds twice a day.

It is more likely it is the hearing aids EQs are changing the sounds. Hearing aids is basically a computer in a tiny form, that why they are $2,000 to $6,000 USD each. Every hearing aids (each side of the ear) have a customized EQ for each wearer, it is conform to their hearing ability to pick up sounds. For myself, I can hear up to 2MHz and only audible at 100 dB with hearing aids. I can’t hear past 2.5Mhz range but I can feel the vibration in my cochlea. That helps me to know they are speaking outside of my frequency range. I often have issues understanding people who is using tonal language like East Asian languages, it sounds like they are speaking from a Walkman CD with skipping every 5 seconds.

Well at the same time, Factorio teaches you that you need some buffers to build a fault tolerant factory.

Factorio often has implicit buffers through its belts (or bot network). If you build an inserter-only factory you'll become painfully aware how important they are to to the smooth operation of the factory. Otherwise it's very easy to get rolling waves of cascading backpressure, where the entire factory is only able to produce at good efficiency as long as you have fully saturated input as well as complete consumption of every product you produce.

Anecdote: I had severe OCD from childhood through my first year in college, triggered by separation from my parents (who never got me therapy despite extremely obvious signs.) I had multiple panic attacks per day resulting in depersonalization/derealization, I was failing my classes etc.

Logically I knew that my mom wouldn't die if I didn't stop my room fan at its maximum rotation or if I didn't make the sign of the cross 2^n times. But mental illness is illogical. What "good coping skills" would fix that?

Psych put me on Prozac, which numbed every feeling but panic, which it didn't touch. I got relief from a bad trip on 2C-E, in which I had such a severe panic attack that it permanently destroyed that identity and left me with depersonalization. The old me was dead, so over the following months I built a new one. OCD apparently got erased with the rest of me. I successfully went off Prozac by quitting it cold turkey and stayed off SSRIs for a decade.

I guess the takeaway is: serious mental illness exists, platitudes about life wouldn't help, SSRIs didn't help either but didn't make me dependent, and psychedelics are a crapshoot.

As a drone nerd, the very first thing I saw was that the wings they pictured were using a Pixhawk. That model is around $100 by itself, and you're not going to be finding them in trash.

Meanwhile, a complete wing from some manufacturers with an autopilot, is ~$150.

On further inspection, they're using a 3D-printed fuselage, and presumably 3D printed wing supports. In that case, the only thing that might be made from "scraps" is the cardboard skin.

Increasingly, media consumers don’t know anything about chemistry, or industry, or manufacturing, or have any contacts in that world, which, to be fair, is increasingly outsourced, subcontracted, offshored, and inaccessible.

Expertise is not such a cut-and-dry matter. Pretense is more rampant than one would like to admit. And what good does it do you that someone else knows something? It only becomes YOUR knowledge when YOU know it.

In any case, seeking knowledge isn't a race. It's about YOU personally trying to grow in wisdom. You don't read Aristotle because you'll "beat" someone at philosophy. Millions of people have read him before you were even born. You read him so that YOU become a better human person. Our lives are a journey of coming to know the truth, or at least they ought to be, and that means a steady resolution of our initial confusion. This requires the cultivation of virtue because vice corrupts motives and moves them away from the steadfast pursuit of truth toward lesser things in an improper way.

Life isn't about measuring dicks. It's about happiness which is about becoming more fully what you are as an individual human being. Is the life of a simple carpenter who does the best he can worthless because he isn't Michelangelo?

Compared to infinity, all dicks are small and only the prideful man would fall into despair over that realization. He wants fame or adulation from everyone. Focus on your own life and the world around you. Be the salt of the earth to those around you and profit from their good. Stop chasing illusions.
