A good list with a lot of very useful features. One thing I found interesting there was, that Olympus was the brand which implemented a lot of those features. Micro Four Thirds is often ignored for its "small sensor". But in practise, a lot of features often count more than the sensor size (which of course has a lot of advantages for optics design, as size and portability). All photographers should pay more attention to Olympus, or rather OMDS, as the new company is called. They are making really good and versatile cameras.
Yeah. In a lot of ways, the push to have kids at an older age is detrimental... although in a lot of ways it's not. It's a tradeoff.

My earliest kid I had at 21; my latest, at 45. Sure, I have more money and emotional stability now. But I was also a lot more active back then, with the ability to deal with sleep deprivation when the kids were infants, and to handle playing tag after work for an hour.

Plus... whatever emotional strength and resilience I have comes in large part from being a practicing father for 20+ years. If I had been childless this whole time, I'd have far less emotional growth.

I'd recommend couples at least consider having kids as soon as they can (a) drag themselves out of poverty and (b) have enough time together that they have some confidence their relationship won't fall apart. Maybe (c) have some 3rd party backup.
Except most digital art lacks provenance in the first place, so you paid for a cryptographically-secured link to a bunch of bits somebody claims are original. (It turns out an https link on a domain you own does the same work)

The lack of provable provenance means that a good chunk of NFT "art" is actually stolen from the artists who do the work.

Bored Ape demonstrated that the theft of NFT art is easy, and the supposed ironclad ownership can easily be changed by the sites listing the art work - because they can just decide that those ironclad bits you hold aren't really yours. At which point you have a central authority arbitrating ownership, which is even worse than what the art world has right now.

It's certainly a lovely place for all sorts of cons, but as economic asset or cryptographic representation of ownership it is an utter and complete failure. You still can't prove something's original, unique, or yours. It just has a thin veneer of technobabble to hide that fact.
This is the part where every one piles in posting suicide hotline numbers. I would argue most of those people do not have any experience with, or understanding of those hotlines and it's just a trite thing to throw out to show support like "fuck cancer".

You should seriously understand what you are signing yourself up for if you call one of those numbers on yourself or someone else.

For one you are volunteering that person for involuntary incarceration in a mental health facility for an unspecified and potentially unlimited amount of time.

Need to show up to work tomorrow to avoid losing your job? That probably isn't happening.

Need to pay your bills to avoid losing your house? That might not be within your capabilities for the next several months or longer.

Kids need to get to school? CPS is likely going to be handling that for the indefinite future if they don't have another guardian because you aren't going to be around to do it and you are no longer fit to be a legal guardian anyway.

I'd probably rather end up in Jail than in that system.

Simply put, in our society indicating you are suicidal is a defacto crime and you should never do it(including and maybe especially to a psychiatrist/psychologist who maybe taking on legal risk if they don't institutionalize you after the admission) unless you are ready to suffer the consequences.
I heard nice phrasing for this.

It should be noted that according to the defense's motion for a mistrial[1] there is also a slight difference in the aspect ratio of the two video files. The high quality video is 1920x844 and the low quality video is 480x212. If you divide 1920 by 4, you get 480, which matches the low quality video. If you divide 844 by 4, you get 211, not 212. Rounding to the nearest integer doesn't explain the one pixel difference because both 1920 and 844 are divisible by 4.

In the US at least, it's not the legislators – it's the library of congress, who in 2018 allowed (under some very limited circumstances) breaking DRM to fix hardware [1].

In the UK (and I think most of the EU) there are similar national bodies to which one can apply for permission to break DRM -- e.g. in the UK there's a long and complex review process by the civil servants at the department for culture, media and sport [2]. Of course, none of these things actually break DRM. They just say that you can break DRM without getting in trouble.

Who knows, in 2055 maybe my handy device at `/dev/quantum/simultaneous_annealer` will magically break five rounds of 256-bit AES or whatever Microsoft use...

I do feel bad for you if you otherwise would have wanted them. I can't really argue with the idea that having a parent go out that way is going to be good for kids but I guess I don't know how bad and perhaps nobody does. At any rate you can never be sure whether you are at risk. The best we have are rather broad statistical estimates, which isn't the same as risk itself. I wouldn't really put too much faith in such population level phenomena when it comes to individuals though. You might want to carefully evaluate that.
So many are doing "remasters" or "anniversary collections" of their old games, re-releasing on modern systems sometimes even without any modification. I can't see them voluntarily killing that revenue stream.
Weird straw man. No one said that there shouldn’t be customer service on offer. The statement I originally made was that a company shouldn’t be legally bound to provide customer service in every single possible channel of communication (eg handwritten napkins).

I said that it’s actually good to be required to provide cancellation through the same channel that the service was initiated from. I’m pro customer service, anti absurdist requirements.

Feel free to build your straw men, though!
It seems the issue is that they are trying to develop too many things.
> pay for only what they need today is often cheaper than spec'ing out beefy hardware to handle tomorrow's scaling issues....plan for a small monthly expense vs. huge up front expenses

this is probably the biggest "value" in cloud infrastructure. Capital expenditure is difficult to obtain, but debt is both easier to obtain (esp. in such low interest rate environment of today), plus debt is tax deductible immediately, while capital expenditure is at most a depreciation over the expected lifetime of the hardware.

One doesn't need to be a transcoding expert to use Handbrake. I'm certainly not one and use it very often as it defaults to optimal settings.
I actually made a mistake months ago by changing the defaults which result in having to redo everything from scratch: I found a deal for the entire Star Trek DS9 box set and bought it to save it onto my home NAS so I could watch it with my Kodi based player. I set up Handbrake to convert to 12 bit H265 instead of 10 bit, processed a couple files, tested them OK on the PC and used these settings for all DVDs. Unfortunately only after finishing I learnt that Kodi's player doesn't support 12 bit H265 (or didn't at the time), so I had to do everything from scratch, and that was a huge pile o DVDs to convert again. Had I left the factory settings untouched, it would have worked out of the box.
JS has lodash as a very good (IMO) "little utility function" library. But for some reason people decided that instead they would rather shatter it into 1000 pieces.
In the Future Improvements section on the linked blog post to the original mod it says "HS400 mode is supported by hardware but it's not currently supported by the sunxi-mmc drivers in the Linux kernel."

So it seems plausible that support for the faster HS200 mode (that's enabled by this mod) was added after the original devices shipped. Just a guess though.

If you do the mod and it causes issues, you can revert to the original DDR52 mode through software, assuming you didn't break anything while soldering.

You don’t do that pre-launch?

I use it to generate the config files, and pass the generated config to the application the same way you’d pass any other json/yaml/etc to your app. Neither ever talk to each other, and Dhall doesn’t exist within our runtime environment.
Technically we could build something like LoRa on the amateur bands. It's a pretty basic protocol with up/down chirps.

With the kind of power we can use compared to the ISM bands this kind of robust protocol would have a huge range.

Tech CEO Pleads to Wire Fraud in IP Address Scheme
TL;DR His is skeptical. For example he needs to replace just the keyboard (not the whole topcase) to make the repair economical. He needs to replace LCD panel only instead of the whole screen assembly. It may be still beneficial to be able to buy genuine Apple parts but there is high probability that those parts would just be too expensive. And let's see if Apple will at least release tools and instructions to program those recently-introduced chips and make it possible to re-use a genuine screen from another iPhone without disabling faceID or having to desolder and re-solder that tiny BGA chip...
I don't think jail is the other choice.
> A defined word which consumes 17 operands from the stack,

It’s been a long while since I last wrote a line of Forth, but issues like these can be countered with some parseable documentation. If the documentation of the word says it consumes 17 operands from the stack and returns 9, the compiler will be able to tell if either code or doc is lying.

i'm not making anything up - this comment

https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29245025

doesn't say absolutely anything about error correction and just vaguely alludes to coherent qubits being somehow different from physical qubits. like are you kidding me claiming that you're being transparent while reporting 100 anything without immediately revealing that it's actually 100k? somehow in your mind 3 orders of magnitude isn't a big deal when communicating relevancy/value/merit?

for a farcical analogy: can you imagine me reporting 100 dead corps and then come to find out i'm talking about 100 corporations being massacred, each corporation employing 1000 people.

there is no other academic discipline that plays this slight-of-hand. i'll give you another analogy that should be near and dear to your heart and will illustrate the point very precisely: can you imagine daniel simon saying he proved separation of BQP and BPP and not immediately (in the same sentence) revealing that it was oracle separation?

Yeah, you hit the nail on the head right there! The idea goes back at least as far as Hermann von Helmholtz (19th century).
The slack option certainly sounds a lot simpler. You don't have to worry about what happens if one server misses a message, what happens if you want to add more server, what happens if you want encryption, what happens if the server gets temporarily backlogged, etc.

I wouldn't use slack exactly but a slack like service like XMPP/Matrix/Kafka? sound way simpler than having servers message each other directly.
'No Moon" indefinitely!

Both the US and NASA are lacking the wherewithal to do a manned Moon trip again.

NASA doesn't have any funding to do it, and the US lacks the hi-tech manufacturing infrastructure and worker-skills that existed back in the 1960s.
Also important to note, that currently Microsoft is doing backwards compatibility the best, by a very wide margin. It has been this way since the last generation, and from as far as I can tell, they don't lose any games generation to generation, whereas Sony and Nintendo always have to reinvent the wheel every single time, often resulting in less games getting ported.
Oh, your friend in Belgium doesn't appreciate what he has, I come from a small island off the west coast of Scotland, where rain is rather common... You could resent it, or you could install roof windows, a log burner and invest on a decent whisky and have the best possible environment for getting deep into a hardback book that possible exists (possible enhanced by a collie dog laying on your feet).

Life is weird. We're all islands until we realise we are the island. Don't take anything too seriously. :)
Evidence of suicidal ideation is a specific example (and probably the most common) of what gets people involuntarily admitted to a mental ward.

In fact, there are almost certainly more people admitted on that basis than actually have it, because if someone is not clearly a danger to themselves or others, but seriously needs help, the easiest way for emergency personnel to fudge it is by reporting a mention of suicide.

Can you provide further context on what makes you think there is significant causation in the opposite direction?
I think they often benefit one specific person in the company, who happens to be the decision maker, and don't hurt the overall company obviously enough that anyone stops them.
Ruby and Perl have awk modes, activated with command-line switches, that are strictly more powerful than awk. I tried using awk recently for a text-processing task and it was a fun learning experience, but I ended up rewriting in Ruby. There's basically no advantage that awk has over Ruby or Perl, aside from portability to embedded systems, and plenty of disadvantages.
Again this isn’t true.

Being dead is still a better choice than being trapped in that system and carrying the stigma your whole life IMO. It becomes a permanent problem that you cannot escape.

I’m not sure if they have enough cachet to immediately yield ROI from job offers, etc. But I do believe they can offer enormous ROI for increasing your skill as a cloud architect. I used AWS for years before doing any certs and my learning from the certs was easily 10x+ what I learned stumbling through it myself. So I highly recommend them. (Disclaimer - I work for AWS.)

Questions of efficiency are questions of survival. This framework resonates with my understanding of trauma responses.
In the past (~2016) I did the solutions architect associate and received many invites because of it...

After that, I founded a startup that didn't go well and I'm planning to return to the market in the next months (as swe or devops/sre) and in my preparation plan is, besides other things (practice algorithm, systems design...), take some certs:

- SOA-C02 - AWS SysOps Administrator - Associate (passed last month)

- DOP-C01 - AWS DevOps Engineer - Professional (exam in December)

- CKA - Certified Kubernetes Administrator (Jan/Feb?)

All out of my pocket. I don't think this makes a huge technical difference, but it open doors, the process is great to learn and I also want to be prepared for future interviews, maybe a MANGA/FAANG? :)

Please explain to me how real people are benefiting from buying something that already belongs to them or how meme-ifying a global existential crisis is beneficial. I mentioned in another comment that I find the crypto community to be childish and seeing things like this does not convince me the community is mature or sensible enough to tackle real problems.

Madagascar is currently going through a humanitarian crisis. Millions of people are facing starvation there and are likely to perish from it [1]. Is anyone in the crypto community trying to coordinate and organize some kind of humanitarian aid for Madagascar? Because if they did that then it would prove to everyone that this technology could be used to affect meaningful change for people in the real world.

This is one of the areas that docker fits perfectly. Run your application with software that runs in docker containers (pg, redis, minio), and run them all for real when you test flows that require them.

I do this and for “heavier” services that support some form of isolation/multi-tenancy (ex. Postgres) I use per-test databases(or whatever unit of isolation).

To cap all of this off, when you build your abstractions, build in the notion of clearing the backing store (and make sure you can only run that in test environments), and lots of things become much easier to simulate.

This approach works across languages, backing services (assuming they’re not cloud only), and testing frameworks.

I have not bothered to use sync as I can setup VS code fast enough without it. Plus there are settings that require platform-specific adjustments.

you're asking a good question, that I'm not really qualified to answer, but in short I think no, that's not the explanation. what you're talking about is a general relativistic phenomenon: just as it takes a few minutes for the sun's light to reach earth, it takes an equal amount of time for the sun's gravity to get here, and by then the sun has moved on. However, I don't think that is responsible for these orbits.
