I am Deaf myself and using my hearing aids all of my life. One thing I discovered that silence is the best productivity focus for me. During my job, I always keep my hearing aids off. This helps with my ADHD as I am easily distracted when there is a sound involved, sometime causes me to ‘hyperfocus’ in my “world” than doing my job. And interesting that I found that keeping my hearing aids off makes the time around me become slow. With the hearing aids on, it amplified the stimulation on my brain in a way which make it feel like the time is in turbo mode.

I recently discovered this “ability” and start doing my job without hearing aids. Basically, silence is golden for me and helps a lot with my productivity.
I actually think the NY Times is not broke at all and is run in a profit maximizing rational manner as a corporate business by catering it's subject matter to its thriving subscriber business and advertising business. Keeping your subscribers happy with stories they want to hear is the right approach. Why let the truth get in the way of corporate profits.
FWIW I just looked at that previous comment of yours, and it's not obvious to me why it would get downvoted. You might want to chalk that one up to HN voting noise.

IDK if I'd blame one office or especially the one person currently sitting in that office. This is a (hopefully) extremely rare condition that wasn't seen coming. As we get back to business as usual, I think LB should keep it 2 high if that's what worked and what their residents want. But there needs to be a variable component, temporary permits are common and existing concept. I don't know anything about LB local govt but where I'm from the city council as a whole could vote this in. A state/federal level could force them to if that's what it takes. So I'd say "them" is >1.

Something similar in concept, when evacuating a hurricane inbound lanes can be turned into outbound lanes and double the buffer. Of course the citizens of coastal cities don't want outbound lanes only at all times. This is for extreme situations (skimming but I think this is valid ref:

What frustrates me is the lack of options and lack of transparency. Amazon do it right with the Kindle imo—you can get it with ads or pay slightly more and get it without.

My other issue is that I find ads on something that costs > £1000 to be incredibly distasteful. If it was some bargain basement thing fine, but this is meant to be top tier.
Name a Gene That Isn't Associated with Cancer
Do we know the Chinese part of the story? I feel like the western media hardly report anything on them while e.g. Wikipedia suggests that there are new developments happening all the time:

How significant are those in practice?
> There was a rule in the Port of Los Angeles saying you could only stack shipping containers two containers high.

This is incorrect.
There was a zoning rule which affected truck yards in Long Beach and Los Angeles. Truck yards. Not the port itself.

As stated in the linked tweets actually.

But if you don't believe that you can just google an image of the Port of Los Angeles from let's say 2019 and count how high the container piles go. Here is a randomly selected image from 2019 where 5 high piles can be clearly counted: https://www.joc.com/sites/default/files/field_feature_image/...

Accuracy is important. I'm not an expert on logistics, or zoning laws. But how could I trust the article's author when they clearly unable to parse their own sources?

> Normally one would settle this by changing prices, but for various reasons we won’t get into price mechanisms aren’t working properly to fix supply shortages.

It's nice that the article is not going into that. Instead it hammers on that politicians regulate where and how many containers can you plop down. That is not the real issue.

If you are moving containers into an area, and you are not moving an equal amount out then you are going to run out of space to store the containers. It is that simple. You can tweak rules to make a bit more space, for example by stacking them higher in the truck yards. But the real question is: why are the people who own these containers incentivised to move them back to where they want them to be filled? If you solve that the problem solves itself. If you can't solve that piles of containers will fill up what little more space you won by tweaking. So the very point the article decides to "not go into" is the only one worth going into.
Even installing...just doesn't make sense why they're so slow.

I have a pretty respectable system. i9-9900K, 32 GB of RAM, and Windows 10 is installed on an NVMe that can read/write at up to 3 gigabytes/sec (Yes, gigaBYTES!).

A 200 MB update should take a fraction of a second. Even if it's actually applying a delta and not just simply overwriting files, I can't imagine it should take more than a couple seconds.

I think that some variation on sortition could be interesting, although I note that it doesn't compensate for other biases away from "perfectly representative", being itself perfectly representative.

As an example of the sort of compensation I meant, a potential proposal (which I'm not actually making but which gives the sense of what I mean) would be to leave the Senate alone but give each State representation in the House such that the total number of representatives across both chambers is (as close as practical to) proportional. This would mean the Senate would be undemocratic in its current direction, but the house would be undemocratic in precisely the opposite direction (in terms of the weights of individual votes, not necessarily in terms of policy), while the President would be chosen (approximately) democratically and overall the system shouldn't lean one way or the other.

I’d just like to say in preface that I appreciate this back and forth, as text can feel more combative than intended. I have learned in the process.

> Again, the PAR paper describes the specific examples where a single disk sector failure on a single replica can be a showstopper event

Again, I don’t believe it does, but I may have missed it. If you could specify the particular scenario you imagine that would be great. The paper explicitly only rejects recovery in the scenario that there are already f failed processes, so we are talking about f+1 faults.

In essence, AFAICT the paper says that you can obtain additional failure tolerance by treating corruption as a non-fail-stop failure, and my contention is that the necessary replication factor for surviving other faults confers sufficient protection against corruption, and that as a result you most likely cannot reduce your replication factor with this improvement.

> Sure, just grep the 2012 VSR Revisited paper

Thanks. I read Section 4.3 before writing my prior reply, and I do not believe it addresses the problem.

No way making a new container is cheaper than shipping back the old one.
"What I like about X, that is missing in Wayland, is that you no longer can run the X server on a machine and connect to clients (application) on another."

You actually can do this with Waypipe. Also, I'll mention this again: most Wayland implementations include the X server (as XWayland) and support this as a backwards compatibility option.

"If you compare the X server to a web browser and the X client to a web site, isn't very similar? And this is the model that is winning nowadays. ... Why use a full screen web browser, it's overkill, when you could have simply launched a X server on the particular display, then launched an application on a server and connected to the IP of that particular monitor to display everything you wanted?"

It's really not overkill though, people build web apps because the stack actually works well. Developers seem to really want to use those browser features. X on the other hand is very old and hasn't kept pace. The most obvious example I can think of is OpenGL: indirect GLX doesn't really work any more and hasn't for quite some time. It can't really be updated either without complicating everything, because any performant use is going to require loading code into the server. If you want remote GPU rendering, the best way to achieve that currently is to use WebGL and WASM (and later WebGPU when that's ready).

"we are discarding it for something that tries to imitate Windows/macOS (badly, because these operating systems just works well, Wayland doesn't). Is it worthed?"

Well, worst case scenario, Wayland is just a minimal way to get your browser window on the screen. I think this is another big misconception that people have. Wayland generally sits at a lower level in the stack than network applications, and it really has to be this way if you want to support hardware accelerated clients. Wayland is made for the case where you've already decided you have a GPU buffer and you want to put that on the screen. You could build something else on top of it that runs over the network (and this is what web browsers do, it's how XWayland works, it's how your VNC/RDP client works, etc) but somewhere in the pipeline those will need to have that fast local path where they render to a GPU buffer. And that's where Wayland comes in. It's not that the developers are trying to copy Windows/MacOS, it's that you have to do this if you want to get a good experience out of a modern GPU.
Instead of fixing the myriad issues with Android, they do stuff like this, for phones that nobody buys.

Every gene can (and possibly will) be associated with cancer
As a political note: saying something like that is a great way to guarantee that if you want to remove `which`, you likely now have a set of engineers who will oppose your attempts to do so.

Those kinds of attitudes pushed me out of open-source engineering and into closed-source, commercial engineering, purely because it's nice to have a boss who can say "Don't talk to your peers like that; it's counterproductive" with some authority.

Seems like it's you who is coming up with anecdotes or indicating personal experience as industry standard.

Google, Facebook and Microsoft completely dominate Tesla in this fundamental, during the same timespan.
It is quite reasonable to make fun of people who required a 2 container limit for aesthetic reasons which accidentally caused a major kink in the global supply chain. It was also inarguably effective to publicly shame them into reversing their decision.
>there are 17,371 human genes that have at least one paper mentioning them in PubMed, and 15,233 (87%!) of them also have at least one paper mentioning them in the context of cancer. In the top genes with the most papers (over four thousand of them with at least 100 publications), only three of them have never been associated with cancer.
Yep. Both the rx and tx buffers were full and the port was dropping packets. (There were both container ships waiting to offload and trucks waiting to offload full and empty containers, respectively.) Now that buffer size has been increased, there is more bandwidth to available to actually move containers. Since the spike is temporary, the problem has gone away. If we were permanently faced with more containers then, yes, we'd need another port.
> for running Linux applications, they feel way underpowered

I think that's because the Raspberry Pi's might be best used as tiny consumer servers, not desktop (or embedded) computers. They seem perfect for running things that require an OS and a moderate amount of processing power - say, DNS, Syncthing, audio streaming, ssh tunnel point, a VPN, a small personal (static) website, or a NAS that doesn't have particularly high performance requirements.

So, Linux "applications" but not in the sense of Firefox, or other interactive GUI programs.

(this ignores the lower barrier to entry that they have than actual microcontrollers, which is a different kind of use-case)

tech products seem to always fall into one of two camps:

- made by an evil society-destroying corporation

- sold out forever
One of the advantage to the more hierarchical approach found in many commercial software development houses is that someone has the authority to say "These are about the same, we're doing it this way, the decision is arbitrary, and anyone who doesn't toe the line can work on something else."

Makes it easier to avoid burning time on problems with equivalently-good solutions, or even not-equivalently-good-but-perfection-isn't-worth-the-cost-of-discovery.
The price is pretty comparable to other enthusiast-tier mini-ITX cases, like the Skyreach 4 mini.
Structural reinforcement is unnecessary - they can be stacked half a dozen high safely. A bit of back of the envelope tells me the cost of paint to coat the exterior of a standard 2 story suburban house is about $1500, so I estimate painting a 40 foot container should be about $400 max. Insulation should be about $1K. I imagine for drainage a buried septic tank is the best solution here.

I think the cost to retrofit an otherwise sound but unwanted container is less than the cost to purchase a used one. That is orders of magnitude lower than the cost to erect "standard" solutions to the housing problem.

/me not a physicist or cosmologist!

I have a revulsion for the Dark Matter/Dark Energy thing, that seems to have become conventional thinking in recent decades. Those theories look to me like a tangled beard, just waiting for Occam's Razor.

FWIW, I'm also not enchanted by the theory of "cosmic inflation". I wonder if sterile neutrinos might eventually offer an alternative explanation for the unexpected smoothness of the MBR.
Interestingly, these are also used for a lot of CV models that have nothing to do with ImageNet.
I'm skeptical that it will increase observability. Buffering tends to hide problems, not reveal them. We know what the bottleneck is (getting empty containers off a critical location, as far as I understand.) Adding more empty containers to this critical location will not increase our ability to solve the problem, it will put off the problem into the future while simultaneously making it worse.
For video editing the productivity gains are mainly in the editing, not in the rendering. Rendering time is more like a performance metric. More responsive editing process, effortless real-time previews - these are the real gains.

Yeah, I agree - that's a harsh verging on psychotic thing to tell someone who's just taken a blow like that.

I hate to say it, though, but I think the sort of person that would say something like that is the sort of person I have been for the better part of the last decade. I defined myself so strongly by my job, and what I did, that I probably would have seen it as a huge personal and moral failing to be fired.

I pity the person who said that. (Not nearly as much as I pity the person who heard that. What a shite thing to say to a friend, or even an acquaintance!) That's no excuse for that level of unkindness, but I think I see the worst parts of my personal history in what would drive someone to say something like that. I hope they see that, and I hope they are inspired to change when they recognize it.

I'm not arguing for or against Jon but your statement is quite indicative of large social issue. Family.

Microsoft spends so much money and energy on backwards compatibility because it's good for developers; it lets them focus on solving problems, not tracking the frameworks they need to solve problems.

The Microsoft approach would be to support `which` forever. It's not a big enough quirk to justify removing it, and it's essential for some people's development process.
