Yeah. The totally lawless environments that can be present in Minecraft servers are awesome- the best example of which being 2b2t, a vanilla gameserver running the same map since 2010 that is essentially the 4chan of Minecraft (it even originated there). Despite allowing users to hack to their hearts' content and having no rules, the creativity and sheer amount of media produced by such an environment is stunning.

Here is a comic series that was made based on the server, and a neat video animation someone created:

What a great summary! In my words: systemd works from a dependency graph, and upstart uses procedural events (dependencies implicit in code).

Upstart is still used by ChromiumOS: https://www.chromium.org/chromium-os/chromiumos-design-docs/...
This is so cool. It's well written and engaging. Good balance between text and interactive graphics. More learning texts should be this way.

The only minor thing I might add is some "sectioning", it's pretty long as a single linear evolution.

What would be cool in a very meta way, is if someone wrote the "this is how this kind of page is built", layering up in the same progressive way, that broke down the different pieces of JS, CSS and HTML.
What would you ban?
Ages ago there was a company trying to do this kind of auto-discoverable UI through their proprietary protocol for controlling and monitoring audio/video processing equipment. It seems like it should be possible, but for some reason hasn't caught on yet in any industries I'm aware of.
100%. The virtual world is actually a very fragile thing.
It's not that there's one less tool. It's that the tool given to begin with was wrong for that purpose, and instead of leveraging the technology in beneficial ways, they're removing it.

They could have implemented in the account settings somewhere where you can let it alert you for any such usage of your face, but without it doing any auto-tagging or other publicly visible things which we usually complain about.
I think this is eventually going to be how people use elixir's livebook library.
It appears those links made the same assumption as did @alnja8a in the sibling comment: my concern is not, at this moment, bugs in pkgsrc itself rather my concern is with tracking who is working on fixing (in our example at hand) awscli-v2

Now, maybe if I go trawling through mailing lists or (shudder) IRC I can find out what the status is, but that's beyond my level of energy expenditure for some niche packaging system

Ah yeah, as someone who has grown up on Canada's west coast, sometimes I see a video of someone in a certain region of England (for example) and I can barely understand them. It's supposedly the same language, but wowzers, the variation in accent is very broad around the world! I was watching a show where a woman was named "Emma" and I literally 100% thought her name was "Emer" because of the way they were pronouncing her name. I was like "huh, that's an interesting name"! haha
true but isn't that the case in typed languages?
Using many processed ingredients to replace one is a valid reason why its not appetizing. Implying a previously single ingredient which is now made of overpriced heavily industrially processed mixtures of grain and beans mixed with flavorings and chemicals gives the underlying implication plant based foods suck and need corporations to heavily process them until it’s bearable to eat despite its worst nutrition and higher cost than meat.

It isn't nebulous, its expensive, disgusting, heavily processed, who is this marketing well to? Vegans, normal people who love expensive processed food? Who is this for? Its a expensive frankenstein "food" with poorer nutrients that no normal people will willingly accept when there is real meat around. They will never adopt it, the heath concious vegan that buys from whole foods will look down on it, most vegans say they hate meat and won't eat things that taste like meat, and the meat eater won't think highly of it either. Most people who ate it or will eat it as a novelty once, but not take it seriously.
I am all for this. IMO publishers especially textbook publishers are running a racket on us. Giving one company even more control over the market is definitely not going to help the situation.

They mention with the acquisition Penguin would "control of close to half the market for acquiring publishing rights to anticipated top-selling books". They also mention how the market is dominated by 5 major players already. Is this domination due to the major 5 players being able to pay substantially more to acquire publishing rights than the little guys or is something else at play?
Not me, but one of my students thought that the result of the functions were magically cached by defaults, so if you call f(10) and call it again later, the computer remembers the value and it does not affect the run time. It change the complexity of the algorithm if f(10) is inside a loop and 10 is actually a variable.
Check out Hades. It's a roguelike and one of my favorite games of the past few years. Amazing music too. Won some game of the year awards I think.

I played it on Mac, so I assume it works on Linux too.
A tax would be evenly distributed among all property owners. An eviction moratorium or rent stabilization places the burden on random individuals to subsidize poor housing policy (restrictive zoning).
Metaverse may not end up being something that you end up glued to for a long period of time exclusively, the interactions will also bleed into other parts of your life. The main example would be that you could buy items for a Metaverse game in an online store on, and you would browse around there on your phone while you're waiting in line for coffee or the bus or whatever, just like we would do online shopping.

Metaverse would also wrap itself around a lot of the things people do already, like watch movies or concerts, coupled with games of any size and type. So as opposed to a stereotypical 6-hour WoW raid lifestyle, you could, for example, watch a virtual concert with friends, then afterwards jump onto a couple rounds of some Fortnite game variant, similar to how we do it today but just within the 'verse. But you could also immerse yourself for longer if you want to.

Honestly Metaverse seems more to me like a digital version of a big shopping mall with a bowling alley, arcade, and movie theater. You can hang out all day there or just drop in to get something from a store, or just get dinner and a movie.
> Otherwise, why chose the book at all ? After all, as you said, it's almost impossible to adapt, so they didn't buy the rights for the writing.

I mean, Apple bought the show from a production company that was able to get adaptation rights from the Asimov estate, and presumably that production company had creative people who liked the series and were motivated to adapt it. It's not like there was some white label series already in development and Apple went searching for some famous book series brand to attach to it.
This is a well-known and popularized myth about the ancient scriptures which plays on patriotic feeling by claiming "uniqueness" and advancement in ancient India. It is manifestly not true or based in fact that any of these technologies existed at the time - there's simply too many holes (why didn't any other culture reproduce these fantastic feats or obtain access to these? where is the archaeological record? why did no other text from the time corroborate this story?), and the best "evidence" the scriptures even talk about this are generous translations that don't accord with the actual historical or linguistic data.

This sort of myth is yet another distortion of the past in favour of a narrative enshrining pre-modern India as superior that has taken ahold of my country. Only in India will people claim Valmiki's is the only valid version of the Ramayana (there are hundreds of versions of the Ramayana, some told as far as Thailand, of which Valmiki's is just one - see A. K. Ramanujam's "Three Hundred Ramayanas"); make homeopathy derived from Ayurveda a nationally accredited field of medicine despite overwhelming clinical evidence it is no better than a placebo; and claim the Vedas predicted the inventions we take for granted today. It is misplaced reverence untempered by an awareness of how to interpret historical documents, and all it serves is to blind people to facts and common sense.
Does imply the market is cooling though or Zillow would not be unloading this hot turd (ha ha, sorry).

To be sure, none of us will be buying one of their distressed properties though.
I hope the schematics leak, just like they do for many other laptops.
No reason to make principal-only payments with interest rates so far below the avg. stock market return.

Obviously if a bond paying 3% would be interesting to you, pay the mortgage off first before buying the bond.
You're not kidding, I just opened Edge to see if I would notice any prompts, and it immediately threw up a popup in the middle of my screen asking to set it as the default browser and change my search to Bing (with "yes" selected by default, obviously).

I use it rarely but I know that I've told it no before. It looks like it's configured to ask periodically.

Halving risks & information assymetry risks are pretty solid arguments for future headwinds faced by btc miners. Investopedia states that by August 2021, only 2.3M BTC out of the 21M cap remain to be mined (https://www.investopedia.com/tech/what-happens-bitcoin-after...). However, what is preventing a fork of bitcoin from addressing this?
It's magical to get a handle on things, if it's something huge or for production I can port it to not-Excel. I can do some stats on a table and get my answer by time I could've set up a new poetry env and started Jupyter.
The answer has to be more nuanced than that. Before 2004 the Cuesta Grade near SLO was 4 lanes and permanently congested at commute time. After widening to 6 lanes in 2004, I've rarely noticed congestion at typical congestion times.

not really, WoW is a game, and no game can be a metaverse, because one of the most core and intrinsic qualities of what makes something a game is that it is a separate space from reality. Games studies people refer to this as "the magic circle" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magic_circle_(virtual_worlds)): the boundary separating reality from "game space".

For example, let's say you're playing a game of Checkers. That's separate from real life. You can't buy a captured Checkers pieces on eBay and then in your next game of Checkers, start with more pieces than your opponent. Being able to do those things would cause the game to break down, because the game would no longer be a contest of your wits in Checkers, it would be a contest of your existing wealth. You can't purchase points in a basketball game, you can't purchase mulligans in golf, etc. A lot of people in the blockchain/NFT space seem to be of the position that games don't currently let you purchase things with real money or sell them to other players for real money because they lack the technical capabilities, but that is not and has never been the problem. There's also the "trading an item in one game for an item in another game" but that's equally useless, it's the same thing but with a barter system, and the barter system would eventually just give way to money anyway. The problem is that introducing those mechanics causes the magic circle to break down.

By contrast a metaverse is a metaverse because the things happening in it are not in a separate, isolated space. Both games and metaverses are virtual in nature, but what makes something a metaverse is the lack of a magic circle, while what makes something a game is the presence of a magic circle. The metaverse is a virtual facet of reality; games' whole thing is that they are not reality.

A metaverse can contain a game, but not vice versa. Plus WoW is entirely owned and operated by one entity; a metaverse is pretty definitionally a situation in which any party can create their own space without needing the permission of another party, kinda like anyone can create a website without needing the permission of any party. Well, of course, you need an IP address and if you want people to be able to reach it, a DNS record and if you want SSL some certificates, so that's not a perfect analogy, but the web isn't really decentralized anyway (for these specific reasons).
And the people buying your used devices have no apple care and are out of warranty, so they’ll complain if they can’t repair it.

Apple devices will stop holding value so well the less repairable they get, which in turn will also increase your costs.

> Maybe instead of complaining about things they should work to fix the underlying issue.

The "underlying issue" is that low-wage jobs frequently have abusive managers. But since the jobs are unskilled, it's easy to find replacements when someone gets sick of the abuse and quits.

Because they're easily replaced, they have zero leverage of fixing the abuse. At best, they'll quit, get replaced, and the new employee will be treated just as poorly as the old one.
> and most of them are very annoying or slow or just weird

It's kinda mindblowing that in $CURRENT_YEAR we're able to do run beautiful-looking ray-traced video games on a home console that costs a few hundred dollars, but when I launch Microsoft Word on a several-thousand-dollar MacBook Pro it takes over 8 seconds from a cold start (just timed it right now).

We've all just accepted that 8 seconds is an acceptable time to wait to type some words into a computer.
This is the same argument as saying since all the stuff that might be deposited on (say) a gypsum crystal can dissolve in water, the water would carry it all away and there would be no gypsum crystals. But we do, in fact, get gypsum crystals:
http://i0.wp.com/unusualplaces.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/0...

A likely process would be a (maybe impure) deposit of a mineral at one end of a tunnel, with a heat source, whether the sun through a skylight or thinner roof, or a geologic hot spot, causing the mineral to sublimate, howsoever slowly, and some of the vapor migrating to a colder part of the tunnel, and crystalizing out there.
Well, up until renters can't afford it.

Raising property taxes on SFH rentals, but not apartments will make apartments more attractive. Sure, renting a house has advantages, but those advantages have a price, and how many renters are going to be willing to pay 40% more per square foot for a SFH over an apartment.

At some point, even an expensive mortgage is a better deal.

Apartments are great, we should incentivize apartments. They are high density and can be built in a variety of sizes.
> I feel bad for anyone who tries to get English pronunciation "correct".

Well that's the wrong way to look at it. There's not one objectively correct pronunciation but there are a great many objectively totally incorrect ones.

I've got an horrible french accent when I speak english and it's just obviously and non-disputably wrong and bogus.

My daughter, on the other hand, has been raised watching english-only cartoons and going since years to british colleges and she definitely has an accent that many would think is native.

The goal shouldn't be to get the "correct" pronunciation: the goal should be to not get an incorrect one.
This is exactly right. You show up to a local planning commission meeting or city council and it is not Blackrock there ranting about new homes being built. It's your neighbors.

It's possible to override default CRUD with custom actions/forms and so all additional data processing will be handled on the product back end API side.

So let's say to want to add user to some LDAP directory once the user is created in Motor Admin.

In order to do that you need to override the default user creation form and send data from that form to your API back end so you can handle user creation in LDAP from there:
https://monosnap.com/file/3CD1qKgNoTBOhwTwzLiNJXTUNgi8yH

All those API requests are sent with JWT header - so it's possible to validate them on the back end.
You say that but then the system goes down and the CTO is walking up to your desk asking why it's down and exactly when can they expect it to be up and don't you know we are bleeding money right now?

What you call byzantine an SRE calls necessary complexity to meet the needs of your business.
This is the wrong question. You're never negotiating "salary", you're negotiating all-in compensation. Getting overly-focused on salary is a great way to shoot yourself in foot. A 5 or 10% salary bump is worthless if taking it means you can no longer work from home when your kid is sick or leave early on Wednesdays to see their soccer game.
You are correct in vanilla minecraft as far as I'm aware, but there are a number of plugins/mods that have been supporting this type of functionality for a while.
Oh hmm I'm not familiar with Bootstrap Studio, but from what you described, it's quite different because our users don't interact with the underlying HTML/CSS of their sites.

We use React because our editor is built in React (which does have a lot of interactivity and changing states), and so, since it's a WYSIWYG editor, the user will be seeing how their site is rendered as they are editing it, so we render their site in React as well. Also, we are using this React framework, Next.JS, which have a functionality to generate static pages from our React component. At the end of the day the React does get compiled into static pages in HTML/JS/CSS. I'm not sure if this answers your question though, would be happy to answer more questions

Autonomy.

Solution to such org woes, in part, is discussed by Clayton Christensen in his work, The Innovator's Solution http://web.mit.edu/6.933/www/Fall2000/teradyne/clay.html: Even after correctly identifying potentially disruptive technologies, firms still must circumvent its hierarchy and bureaucracy that can stifle the free pursuit of creative ideas. Christensen suggests that firms need to provide experimental groups within the company a freer rein. "With a few exceptions, the only instances in which mainstream firms have successfully established a timely position in a disruptive technology were those in which the firms' managers set up an autonomous organization charged with building a new and independent business around the disruptive technology." This autonomous organization will then be able to choose the customers it answers to, choose how much profit it needs to make, and how to run its business.

Amazon and Cloudflare are good examples of big-orgs trying their best to implement late Prof. Christensen's ideas.

Andy Jassy on Amazon's approach to innovation: https://www.hbs.edu/forum-for-growth-and-innovation/podcasts...: And then if we like the answers to those first four elements, then we ask, can we put a group of single threaded focused people on this initiative, even if it seems like they're overwhelming it with strong senior people, if you try to add really busy people do the existing business and the big new idea, they will always favor the existing business because it's surer bet. So we want to peel people away from the existing business and put them just on the new initiative.

Pace of innovation at Cloudflare https://blog.cloudflare.com/the-secret-to-cloudflare-pace-of...: ...it is not unusual for an initial product idea to start with a team small enough to split a pack of Twinkies and for the initial proof of concept to go from whiteboard to rolled out in days. We intentionally staff and structure our teams and our backlogs so that we have flexibility to pivot and innovate. Our Emerging Technology and Incubation team is a small group of product managers and engineers solely dedicated to exploring new products for new markets. Our Research team is dedicated to thinking deeply and partnering with organizations across the globe to define new standards and new ways to tackle some of the hardest challenges.
