> That's the reason you've lost empathy for them, because they are humans who have to shit and are denied access to toilets?

Its totally fair, and expected that people lose sympathy when they have to clean up shit.

Yes, if there were safe, available, places to shit then that'd be a good step to avoid this issue. But the root issue is that people no longer have sympathy because its so disruptive and so gross and has been going on for so long.

> I find it so weird that people blame homeless people for defecating on the streets.

They're blamed because they did it. They did it because there is no alt, but they did it, and "it" is gross and not desirable. SF has been talking about the issue for years, and its not resolved, so your tolerance and sympathy drops over time.
Career politicians definitely stay in to seek power and money. But a life time truck driver isn't likely going for that I think.

Nobody is talking about double/triple buffering every client, but the final composited surface.

Double-buffering was viable and done on quite a lot of 1980's hardware. The point remains that this is not a protocol issue.

> Somebody could make X12 but I'm sure you understand that doing that would have all the same technical/organization challenges as Wayland. I don't know why you would think making an incompatible fork of the X server and then trying to convince everyone to use it is a simple endeavor, it's not.

I didn't suggest it would have been simple. I suggested it would have been simple than a well over decade long effort to write a new system from scratch.

The point being that the reasons for the existence of Wayland are not technical, but political, due to the lack of willingness in the Xorg core team to break compatibility at the time. And we're still paying the price.
How come the FBI doesn't find, and raid these guys and then anyone who buys it jail for buying stolen property?

[Citation needed.] I am unable to find a single reliable source that says mask wearing has any sociological or psychological effect on children or anyone else. Anecdotally, I haven't seen anything like that. Just typical kids.

> The covid risk for children is a rounding error.

Again, who says that's true? Can't find it. The Ohio Department of Health maintains a dashboard[1] for this, which indicates that it's significant enough to track, and the numbers there sure aren't "rounding error" numbers.

Assuming what you meant is "children are less likely to develop severe symptoms," and also that that's true: they can still spread the virus to the adults they live with in their homes, or the many adults that share the school building they're in. (Did you think we just shove kids in an adult-less environment, or that teachers are somehow immune?)

> a far more obvious cause - oil price shocks

The way you put it sounds rather backwards and gives me "wet streets are causing rain" vibes, as if lots of government increase of the money supply won't cause demand for scarce resources and drive up their prices via sudden increases in demand with the newly available cash that can't be met by similar increases in supply.
those who choose this lifestyle

Approximately nobody chooses this lifestyle, dude. You’re not going to make much progress on this issue if you start from what seems a very skewed perception of it.

In reality the problem is quite large and complex, and is exacerbated by the intersection of many different factors. Boiling it down to “those who deserve a helping hand” and “those who chose this lifestyle” is worryingly reminiscent of the idea of “deserving” and “undeserving” poor. There are way more than “two distinct things going on”.

The Covington Celerons had an L1 cache but no L2 cache. The Pentium II of the era had an off-die L2 cache. So the accelerometer was a binned Pentium II without any L2 cache. A later model of the Celeron was released with a 128k L2 off-die L2 cache.

At its base clock speeds the Celerons were middling chips. But since they readily overclocked you could get them up to 450-466MHz. They wouldn't be equivalent to the same speed Pentium II (because of no L2 cache) but they punched above their weight for the price.

There is the context of the learner also.

You asked about quickly getting up to speed in the basics. To me that means a level of understand where you just recognise the extent of your ignorance but have a decent enough mental model and vernacular to know how to ask the right questions.

The model is going to be simplistic anyway, but as long as its recognised as such theres just so much damage particular misinformation can do.

Compared to a group of enthusiasts who actually believe their simplistic model to be more or less complete enough. There is no shortage of such models when it comes to nutrition.

I feel like everyone talking about drug addicted homeless people shitting everywhere are really just upset that the issue affects them, in their otherwise class-insulated world, somehow.

Yes, I routinely drive next to these driverless things and they are negotiating plenty of annoying & complicated stuff.

People rightfully consider this to be a hypocrisy.

Hypocrisy can effectively dampen voter turnout of your supporters if they are idealistic enough. But it's an absolute non-factor if you can sufficiently demonize your opponent(s) and their positions, just look at Trump and how he has wrapped Evangelical America around his little finger.

> Opining that they brought it on themselves does not get them off the street or reduce expensive calls to responders

OP's point, charitably, is that advocates to San Francisco's homeless may need to stomach a harsher response to the most-extreme cases, e.g. assaults and repeated public defecation, to avoid voters turning on the issue as a whole.

Empathy is needed. But human nature is human nature, and when people feel their safety and security is threatened their empathy modulates down. That's what you're seeing in OP's comment. That's happening in San Francisco.

(Oxytocin is critically involved in empathy and social behaviors. It has also been linked to toxin-elicited and socially-mediated disgust [1].)

Everything is better, tons of things are now free, integration has improved, there's full transparency. It helps that MS's own tools like VSCode, VS online etc are best in class by some margin and used by everyone.

It works fine for me. I gave my reason for why I won't consider switching to some Wayland compositor. None of the bugs you list affect me, so your suggestion I look at a Wayland compositor which would require me to spend time changing my entire config only to be left running XWayland anyway because the terminals I use are X11 based.

It would be a massive waste of my time for no benefit whatsoever.

And this is why X will stay around for a long time: There are lots of us with dependencies like this and no reasons to change things until things starts breaking.

Read again. I have not once suggested I'm planning on rewriting an X server. I pointed out doing so would have been a better choice than starting over from scratch, and that the choice to start over from scratch is the reason people are still sticking with X.

I'll say it. People are tired of progressive extremism, like at once insisting that "CRT isn't being taught in schools" while with the other hand supporting CRT inspired school programs that teach racial awareness to children, and in particular white guilt to white children. You can look it up on the VA website, where CRT is explicitly mentioned as a part of primary school curriculum.

This is arguably the biggest elephant in the room - independents and moderate democrats are increasingly speaking openly about the fact that the democratic party is overtly anti-white. Search for it on reddit; before today at best such comments would be downvoted and at worst grounds for a ban. Now they're sitting at the top of the comment chains.

The election results in NJ and VA so far seem to mark a turning point. Hopefully soon enough to avoid the pendulum swinging back into true reactionary white supremacy - you know, the genocide kind. Meanwhile out of touch limousine liberals are doubling down on twitter and in media and blaming white supremacists for the election upsets. Something's going to break, one way or another.

This is not a deal between equal parties, consumers are severely disadvantaged. Just force them to deliver what they promised. They'll stop promsing soon enough.

No-one is being "severely disadvantaged". The unsophisticated users backing up their regular PCs are getting exactly what they paid for - a backup of their PC without having to even know what a terabyte is - and the /r/datahoarder types with a rack of JBODs full of every TV series ever made knew full well that they weren't going to get away with backing that up on a $7/month consumer single PC plan. In the event that one among the latter really was that credulous, sure, give 'em their 7 bucks back and now they're square.

I wish the original post would have started off with why the project exists.

They say "have everything in one file", but is there a problem having your JS, CSS, HTML in separate files?

CSS, and to a lesser extent JS isn't limited to a single component. Styles are reused across multiple components for consistency, so this "reason to exist" breaks right away.

There are enough comments about how people like, or dislike the syntax, etc, but it might help to understand the problem the creator was trying to solve, before just saying "this won't fit my workflow".

Indeed. It's not unheard of that a local election in Britain is invalidated because of voting irregularities - someone collected ballot papers and made sure the vote goes to their man. I hear that that happens in ethnic enclaves in Miami as well.

I doubt there are any floating point numbers because FP is very slow to emulate (for example, just to add two numbers you have to shift mantissas and 6502 has no fast way to do it). If I was writing a game for an 8-bit CPU, I would use fixed point numbers (for example, 8.8 numbers which use 8 bits for integral part and 8 bits for the fractional part, or maybe 10.6, or 12.4 numbers).

6502 cannot multiply or divide (division is a costly operation even on modern CPUs) so I would use adding or subtracting logarithms for this purpose. 12-bit precision logarithm table requires just 8 Kb RAM (and you can get 13-bit precision with interpolation).

The disadvantage of this approach is that every time you convert a number from linear to logarithm or vice versa you get approximately up to 0.3% error (for 12-bit logarithm). So multiplying or dividing several numbers in a row is fine, but if you have to alternate multiplication with additions you will accumulate an error. So I would look for formulas that avoid this. But for a game a little error in calculations is not noticeable.

Also one might think that the most time-consuming part for pseudo-3D game is math and calculations. I doubt that. The most of CPU cycles are usually spent in rasterisation and applying textures. Is is easy to calculate positions of 3 vertices of a triangle, but it takes a lot of time to draw it line by line, pixel by pixel, and if you want to have textures this time can be multiplied 5x-10x.
