Your toolchain should set the bit last thing before distribution, I'd expect.

If you're talking about a toolchain on the consumption side after distribution, well, consumers shouldn't be modifying content, is what I'd expect the position to be. No derivative works and all that.

That's funny; my wages didn't increase to match inflation this year when I received my performance review. None of my family members or friends also received such raises. Yet the prices of everything else went up around me, especially housing. Heck, even the Dollar Tree wants 25% more.

In a bout of inflation, not all prices increase at the same rate at the same time; this is known as the Cantillon effect (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Cantillon).

Never underestimate the gap between what people say they will do and what they'll actually do.

If you poll employees about literally any topic where one answer benefits them and the other answer doesn't, people are going to respond with a preference for the answer that benefits them.

But in the real world, they still have to go out and find that better job that pays more and doesn't factor their location into cost of living. They're out there, but there far more rare than these articles suggest.
"Some people have to work 2 jobs, maybe 60 or 70 hour weeks - that sucks, but it's still better than literally being a serf."

What about a Singapore style solution? As a city state, they don't have the benefit of having anywhere else to go, so public housing schemes (government provides affordable apartments to rent, no short term speculations allowed) are the main way to go. Or we could make housing depreciate like in Tokyo (and allow for low end small rooms without central heating).
If you'll indulge me, I have a concrete story on this. In San Diego County, in the city of Del Mar, there is one final plot of 17.45 acres of oceanfront land. What was to happen to it? The proposal was the "Marisol Specific Plan". It was to developed into a resort, easily a high 9-figure project, producing revenue, creating jobs, economic activity. When voters unsurprisingly rejected it, the land was subdivided into 5 ultra-luxury lots, each going for $10-20 million. The inadequate zoning is leaving hundreds of millions dollars gone because the land can't be put to its full productive use.
> But if economic opportunity is concentrated in cities that are too expensive for average working people to live in

Maybe an "opportunity" that doesn't provide a living wage isn't actually an opportunity at all?
So GP's question was basically "why do we need color profile?" and the short answer is "to know what images should look like".

In order to know what an image should look like, a "perfect" or "complete" representation, at minimum the real colors must be injective to the color space (every value has at most 1 color). You could argue that the color space needn't be injective (values that have no color), which is probably fine if your image is static and you never manipulate it. As soon as you manipulate values of your image in your color space, you run the risk of falling outside the color domain.

But really to unpack this whole thread, my essential point is that color spaces are about engineering tradeoffs. sRGB can't reproduce many colors. CIE 1931 represents all color but has imaginary colors.

Ergo, I contend there is no "complete" color space.

Why would they store it under the "Installer" path?

This is a pattern that bothers me with Microsoft software on Windows.
They leave the stuff they needed to use ALSO for installer stuff in an installer directory, not under my path, not even in a place I might know of. You could have said

%APPDATA%\VisualStudio\VC2932.2.1.21113412\1231231\a31\Internal\Installer

and it would have been just as easy for me to find.
Here's a ripple question for the lawyers.

While it's perfectly legal to take a photo of me in public, I own the "copyright" to my own image, can someone make money off it?

And if not my image what if I am wearing clothing that are my own creation, my mugshot might be fair game, but is the copyright of my clothing "Fair use"?
Simple. It only runs one what you think of as a "program".

I've written for bare metal on several platforms. Operating systems exist for a specific use case: when you want to run potentially multiple programs on the same piece of hardware, over time (not nec. concurrently), and you don't want your software to have to think about how to interface with the hardware. That's what operating systems do. There are plenty of cases when you don't need, or want, an OS.
rsync is probably my least favourite. I literally don't think I have ever correctly written a command that does what I intended on the first attempt.

Wow, that took me on a quick tour from "hey, I remember when that comic was running" through "hey, that comic is running again" to "hey, turns out that comic never stopped running?"
Yes, but you would split a monolith into smaller microservices. It's inaccurate language to say you'd split a monorepo into smaller microservices (as GP describes), that's a conflation of two different but related concepts.
I agree with your technical clarification, but there would be no point in owning a balance if the ability for someone to receive it in a transaction without fear of double spend disappeared. Therefore, I stand by my statement. Bitcoin has no value without continuous expenditure of energy.
> And many neoliberal leftist economist and media outlets even defending the status quo monetary policy that is clearly behind this wealth divide.

I don't think it's clear at all that loose monetary policy causes a wealth divide. Most evidence points to the fact that the bottom quartile's income is the most sensitive to labor market slack.
to my understanding the f35 is actually pretty price competitive with other offerings. The price keeps going down as more and more are sold

> If you take a photo with a camera that automatically deletes it immediately, nobody cares. It's not the act of taking a photo that people care about,

If people are jumping in front of me paparazzi-style, pushing, gaping, pointing, flashing their cameras, I'd be bothered whether the camera deletes the image or not. I wouldn't even know whether it does. For me the act of photo taking, the unexpected attention in a public space is a bigger deal than the picture. Luckily, I'm not interesting enough
How did you split your shares? Equal part?
I love functional languages but is anyone actually using Haskell to develop for Nintendo Switch and PlayStation? Can you use Haskell on the Nintendo Switch to access a robust audio mixer stack?

F# can be used with C#/MonoGame which seems to run well everywhere so that's one route to functional programming gamedev. Another route appears to be to use SDL2 with a functional language that supports ANSI C bytecode runtime fallback. E.g. OCaml has a bytecode compiler and an ocamlrun runtime that can be compiled with an ANSI C compiler. But I don't know what the GC latency guarantees are for the bytecode runtime. OCaml's native low latency GC benefits from Jane Street's contributions because Jane Street uses OCaml for high frequency trading. But bytecode OCaml running on Nintendo Switch isn't the same thing as native Linux OCaml.
I totally agree a specific IDE shouldn't be _required_ to operate the software platform. The IDE should ever remain a catalyst, accelerating a process that could be done by hand from the CLI whenever required. The good IDE should know about these different tools and present them in a a coherent manner. The I in IDE should mean more than integrating a compiler and debugger with a text editor.

addendum: the "team rules" being kind of novel, these should be encoded in a human-readable file, actionable from the CLI as well as the IDE. I've been pondering for a while how such a workflow tool could be like.
> The new cross-plat runtimes and languages we could have had by now if JavaScript didn't have a stranglehold on the available browser-side language space

Probably barely working, super fragmented garbage. A standard that isn't optimal but works well enough is fantasic in comparison to everybody trying to make their own thing. And realistically, if something else would have emerged, people would whine about it just as much as they do about JS.

Nowadays, we can use pretty much any language we want and compile it down to JS/WebASM. And most just add some compile checks with TypeScript. Because that's good enough, and it works.
Yes, this is exactly my point. I think we need a "2.0" version of this rule that better encapsulates what a good backup strategy is.
From the article, it doesn't sound like an extreme at all. The sale and consumption of weed products seems to be quite limited to certain places. But at the end of the day, this is all about regulating something that people are doing regardless of legality. People can be severely addicted to gambling, eating, and sex. Addiction's a mental illness that should be treat as such, without punishing the whole world for it.
Yes, and in the case of these tools it's probably not relevant for the majority of cases - if you're a type 1 diabetic you don't produce enough insulin, it's not a question of how resistant you are to it.

The natural gas load was nearly double it's average load, because the entire state of Texas was below freezing for a week solid and almost nobody has gas heat in Texas.

YC used to look for "animals" in their application. You're tapping into their primal side. It's like sports, where you just through pass the ball in front of you and your teammate can anticipate it. It's like a band where you play a beat on the drums and the guitarist just puts a riff on it.

The cons is that there's overhead. There's creative disagreement and communication. There's a lot of blind trust needed to speed things up.

No, not all embedded systems run an OS. Linux is not an OS, it's a kernel. Ubuntu is an OS. Kubernetes is application software that runs on several operating systems, primarily ones based on the Linux kernel.
Others have mentioned the underlying land values is the most important thing that is driving valuation increases, but beyond that the existing 130 year old house is worth more because the cost to rebuild it from scratch is increasing as construction costs increase.
Videogames don't need color spaces, but they have different compression formats on GPUs, like S3TC, BC7, or ASTC. These things save not just storage, also VRAM bandwidth.
> Truthfully, I don't see this working out in the long run. Companies like Facebook are making desperate grabs to keep control over how work is done and how it is compensated, but I believe market forces will kill efforts like ZIP code based compensation.

I think you're right, but I don't think the end game is that everyone gets FAANG-level salaries everywhere.

When companies realize that they can hire people for a fraction of SF Bay Area salaries while still paying them 20-30% more than their local salaries, the overall compensation structure will slide downward toward that number.

Then the next step is when they realize they can hire foreign people in similar timezones at another lower step on the compensation ladder (while still paying more than their local jobs would offer). The compensation then slides further down toward this average.

> In reality, if you're top tier talent, you can command top tier compensation no matter what your ZIP code is.

Works in theory, not as much in practice. There's still value to having people collaborate in person (I say this as someone who has primarily worked remote long before COVID). Companies paying top dollar have a lot of leverage to get employees to move and work in-person still.

Here are a few obvious problems:

- retirement plans often rely on equity from real estate, and so do some nursing home admissions

- as per 2008, when people have more money remaining on a mortgage than the underlying asset (home) is worth, some of them will declare bankruptcy

- when rich people suddenly have a lot less nominal cash, they can't fund their businesses by liquidating assets, so they cut costs, and then those costs have to find new jobs, which can take years and is hugely disruptive for everyone[0]

Overall there's an argument to be made for doing it anyway, but there are pretty clear downsides to causing an economic crisis, even if the economy eventually reaches a better equilibrium state.

"Money coming out of pockets" isn't evidence that value is "taken" from anywhere. The more cooperative exchanges of value we have, the more valuable and prosperous our economies are.
I believe libpng default zlib compression level is 6. libpng may use CRC (or adler) checksums, which account for around 30% of the decode time. In my experience with zlib, the higher compression levels have faster decode times. My reasoning at the time was (early '00s) that higher compression tends to code longer runs of copying of the dictionary. More time in the copy loop rather than the input and decode loop.

Eh, I don't think that's true. Maybe for older generations, but for people in their 20s and 30s I suspect the opposite is true. People want to live in cities and if they've done any research at all don't want to live in suburbia since it's a living hell.
Can you explain what exactly is the difference between those definitions?

And yes. Covid vaccines don't prevent the virus from spreading, as much as we had hoped they do. This has been communicated extensively.

What they still do is reduce probability of spreading and reduce probability of a hospitalisation.

The former means there are still chances at obtaining herd immunity, it just raises the bar for it. The latter means that vaccines are still important to keep hospitals from being overrun.
So why dont they release the flight deck cctv to prove this or is it more likely a crap coverup?

So the engine a joint effort between Lockheed (designer) and Rolls Royce (builder), https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lockheed_Martin_F-35_Lightning...

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S187770581...

You see the US Lockheed C-130 Hercules has a different flight computer compared to the British version namely because of the use of different engines, the US engines are not as powerful and the USAF fly within the parameters of the flight computer, but the British Lockheed C-130 has a cut down flight computer which allows more risky manoeuvres because the Rolls Royce engines are more powerful, so they can land and take off on shorter jungle runways, stepper climbs things like that, ideal for security services operations. The Apache Helicopter is the same, the US engine is not as powerful as the Rolls Royce engine so you can do more in the UK version of the Apache.

So I wonder with this one if it really is a crap coverup or not? There's a lot of technology built into these things and as we become more reliant on technology to help fly these things instead of the more natural mechanical elements of control from years gone by, there's more vulnerability being introduced alongside the de rigueur complexity.

Those DVD sound card+drive bundles weren't for connectivity to the drive in that era however (ATAPI and SCSI were the only standards for DVD-ROM drives). The bundle was to get a card with a hardware MPEG2 decoder since MPEG2 was taxing on the systems of the era.

With the exception of the TV out those cards were a terrible investment though. CPUs went from Pentium 120Mhz to Athlon 1000Mhz within 5 years and the playback software got optimized massively as well (CyberLink PowerDVD was a big success since it could enable MPEG2 playback on even a lowly Pentium MMX).

In fact i remember being given a couple of those cards in that era since pretty much everyone could play DVDs without the dedicated hardware and no one could be bothered setting up the drivers for it.
The root of the issue with street photography has a whole lot less to do with the photograph and more to do with the ever present issue of male sexual abuse towards women.

No one would even give a crap about these photos if not for that root cause.

This is why intent is at the root of these issues. We won't likely address these issues of public domain vs privacy unless we address the root of why anyone really cares about the issues in the first place. I don't think people are saying I don't like art. I think people are saying "I'm sick of being sexually objectified"

I say all this as street photographer myself.

Also food for thought. Would this have been as big of an issue had the photographer been a woman? Would it had gotten the same push back? These are question that dig more the root cause of why this has less to do with the photo and more to do with who is taking the photo and why.

You know what has more effect on my nose in public spaces than any smoke?

The stink of people, be it perfume, deodorant, hairspray, or the utter lack of washing and cleaning hair and clothes, sometimes even their breath from afar.

Well at least pre-corona. Now I don't notice it so often, since I don't share that much space & time with them anymore.

Anyway, that can even cause tears in my eyes and a strange sting in the nose, making it run. Smoke of any kind doesn't.
