If I were looking for work and I were a top tier candidate, I would not let companies play games by determining pay based on my location. I'd work with a company that pays me well no matter where I choose to live. After all, where I live should only concern them if there's some kind of tax implication.

Top tier candidates aren't stupid, and ones that would willingly subject themselves to that are probably just looking for a year or two stint to bolster their resumes. Either that or they aren't as smart as they make themselves out to be.
The food/meat words are actually from French because that was what the aristocratic classes would have spoken in England in the late middle ages/early Rennaisance and they were the people eating the meat for the most part.

Beef <- Boeuf

Pork <- Porc

Poultry <- Poulet

Salmon <- Saumon

Venison <- Venaison

Mutton <- Mouton

The latin words are in some cases the root of the French but it's not as clear or consistent.
visudo isn't a fork, it just locks the sudoers file against concurrent edits, runs whatever standard editor you want, waits for it to finish, and validate the new file before committing it to the real location.

I can agree that process is too complex, but they're not maintaining a fork of vi for that purpose.
Mostly from Adidas and Nike. But I get your point. Still you cannot fully buy the industry. It is tied to passports.

When I shopped for a local bank branch that had safe deposit boxes (maybe decade ago), one of the bankers told me a lot of banks and branches were trying to get rid of their boxes, and not wanting to include boxes in new branches.

I managed to get a box in the basement of the BofA in Harvard Square back then, and kinda wish I'd kept it, since I doubt I could get one today.
"that those who still use Vi/Emacs to code are close minded and unwilling to change."

Vi is not just an text editor in the terminal. It's a different way to interact with text. To say that Vi users are close minded is like saying people who use the terminal are closed minded.

GUIs and the mouse have significantly improved the way we interact with computers. However, many things are still better in the terminal with a keyboard.

In that same vein, IDEs have improved the way we write code but it has not improved on the way we interact with text enough. For those of us who love Vi as an expressive language to interact with text, we choose to forgo the benefits that IDEs give us when writing code.

Personally, when I write code, I love the experience of tmux with neovim. It's something I try to replicate in the gui every couple of years in MacOS but it always so bad.

On the point of manual renaming, Vim is perfectly capable of project based search and replace.
I'd recommend [SingleFile](https://github.com/gildas-lormeau/SingleFile) for saving web pages, [Obsidian](https://obsidian.md/) for taking notes and [Syncthing](https://syncthing.net/) for syncing between devices. Combining these can let you access any saved pages or notes on any device.
I also think people get focused on having a state-of-the-art production. Lots of value in having a domestic facility that can make last N-tier generation chips (10, 14, 22, 32, etc) are all capable of providing significant value.

Looks like Norwegian law is terrible. It doesn't respect freedom of art expression. Isn't it a right of any person to see the world the way this person want to see it and express it in any art form that is available?

They wish to control pictures photographer produce and they take no shame in that. It is absolutely terrible. They basically oppress photographer who wish to show reality with all imperfections. They make illegal any photography that tries to show reality as it is or as photographer perceive it instead of some polished idealistic BS that has nothing to with what is really going on.
ispc is explicitly designed to take advantage of SIMD on CPUs and GPUs, its existence is directly related to the shortcomings of C in this area. Likewise, SYCL exists to target accelerators because C isn't even close to supporting heterogeneous hardware or programming. In any case, C does not map well to a massive amount of hardware running in production right now.
Some people are just destined to become addicted to something. Anyone who's ever been drunk has an idea of the level of dedication and the massive amount of work that would be involved in becoming an alcoholic. Being drunk constantly is far too much work for most people and becoming a coke addict is exponentially more expensive and less convenient than being a drunk. Every 15 minutes snorting or every 5 minutes smoking cocaine just isn't something most people would ever attempt to do for stretches longer than an evening.
I'm completely in agreement. I think I danced around this in my post. The main things that bother me, in general:

1. Undiscerning student (i.e. young, impressionable, hasn't been taught critical thinking, doesn't have sufficient experience to evaluate the validity of what they're learning).

2. Things taught non-critically. I think this even applies to the "obvious" stuff like algebra and heliocentrism. My experience with public schooling was that there was too much rote memorization and appeal to authority and not enough "learning."

If either of those are fixed (and I think they go hand-in-hand) I don't care if the curriculum/school library has Rand, an unannotated Mein Kampf, or $insert_book_promoting_an_agenda.
People should not have computers in their homes running software that they do not have control over. They should have the full legal and practical freedoms to study, copy, modify, and redistribute the software they are running, and to delegate those abilities to the people of their choice, since not everyone wants to be a programmer.

The current situation, where Google, Samsung, and Amazon have unaccountable devices running unauditable secret code, which they can update whenever they want, with access to the most private aspects of many people's lives (including microphones and sometimes cameras in their bedrooms), is extremely risky; no government and no company can be trusted with that kind of power.
Interesting. Yes that's similer, although I was talking about "ren" as a suffice specifically.

But still we say ox and oxen and yet we don't say one axe many "axen". Yes I know people say "emacsen", but that's not really a word.
Yes, this does make little sense at all

If it is actually a full inlet cover, there will be _zero_ airflow, so just < 14psi pressure on the cover. (I was just answering how it could avoid being ingested if it was a full cover.)

If it is some other smaller cover on some auxiliary inlet, it might make more sense, as it could definitely screw up the sensors, airflow, whatever, and not get ingested.

I'm sure we'll all be really interested to see what really happened, 'tho I'm not sure we ever will.
Not as a desktop but I use it on bare metal as my primary server. The main advantage is the absence of bloat, e.g. components like DBus or systemd that increase the attack surface. The use of musl vs. glibc does make some things more complicated, however.
That's a bit like asking why people enjoy stories about time travel and parallel universes. It's true that stories have a plot, but games don't have to have a plot to be enjoyable, with sports being a very popular example.

I guess the short answer is: people like puzzles.
not to dispute your point, because it makes sense from the individual's perspective, but this...

> Right now, investing in public companies and tech is very risky, as valuations are at record highs. Many experts estimate near-zero returns for decades from public markets.

...is a big red arrow pointing to the fact that we're living in a castle made of sand

if we continue to let pathological incentives drive economic decisions the tide will wipe it all away

purchasing power is a mutually constructed fiction and remains a useful social technology only while material productivity can plausibly support the web of lies we tell each other

now that people have noticed the foundation caving in, it would be nice if we could formulate and incentivize a positive sum response, otherwise we get zero or negative sum dogfights over scraps as you describe
This is true, so much so we just don’t hire juniors because we haven’t figured out how we’d manage, we’re fully remote. If We did hire juniors I’d probably want them co-located near me somehow.

Ultimately I think people will work more in offices again for this reason and for the reason that even the company I work for, which has always been remote first has a large group of people who live in the same city, they meet in person more often and seem to call much more of the shots and receive promotions more than others.

Five Ways China Is Trying to Unaddict Kids from Social Media
This is an excellen twitter thread with lots of data, but if you're looking for the TLDR, here is the summary from the end of the twitter thread:

- UK’s July reopening likely generated enough infection-acquired immunity to shield it from continent’s winter wave

- But that came at a cost of thousands of deaths, far higher rate than peer countries [so far]

- Boosters also key to UK’s current successes

- If western European countries can accelerate booster rollout they can blunt the wave, esp in terms of hospitalisations & deaths

- But some, like Austria, are hamstrung by low uptake of the primary course. You can’t boosted the unvaxxed, and Austria has a lot of them.
It’s not just real estate. It’s all assets. This is Finance 101. As the risk free rate goes to zero asset prices go to infinity.
I suggest everyone try the IBNIZ machine that the author has created
Yes but if prices rise, its 90-100% of the land price increase, and 0-10% of the house itself. That is land with all network connections and permit to build the house. It basically goes up only with material and labor costs.

House is often a necessary evil - its never what buyers imagine as ideal, but in comparison with going through the hell of building one's own (or also adding tearing down the old) its an acceptable compromise for many.

Life is too short, and no house is worth destroying a marriage.

Why should a transaction need to be a network scale operation in a decentralized scheme? The ultimate decentralized payment mechanism is bartering, in which the transaction only includes the people making the transaction.

Now, I don’t know how to translate that to the digital world, but there’s no clear reason why a decentralized network must inform the entire network of everything that happens in it.
After getting my bag, wired headphones, and mask all tangled up on the train on my way to work, I went on the hunt for good wireless headphones. I tried out a few, and the Galaxy Buds 2 sounded and worked great but my ears physically hurt after using them for a few minutes. I tried the three different tips and nothing helped. I figured I would get used to them and worked them for about a half hour and ended up dizzy with a huge headache.

I don't what was up but it didn’t happen with any other of the pairs I tried out
I think actually physically going through your disaster recovery plan (whatever that would be, 321 or not) reveals how good/bad your backup plan is for you.

Personally, I downsized. I made peace with myself that I can live without the gobsmack amount of data I have if it were to be lost tomorrow. I pared down to a small set of data (less than 1GB) that is critical to me. That data is synced to various devices with syncthing (includes even my cellphone!), and then I use restic to two different cloud storage providers. When I'm bored I do an independent, standalone export from cloud storage.
Why does it matter if it's bijective?
The economic theory arguments are important, but I think it's also worth noting that the internet's facilitation of preferential attachment (asymptotically) fosters bimodal distributions in everything and the effect of the spikes swamps the hoped-for benefits of long tails.

Economic distributions that are massively skewed aren't sustainable, any more than organic distributions are; either you end up with chronic bad conditions (like diabetes) or abrupt discontinuities (like heart attacks and strokes, parallel to authoritarian crises or revolutions). I think moderate (2-3%) inflation might actually be a good thing in the short-medium term as long as its led by wage increases. Much of the inflation we're seeing now is result of demand shocks following the pandemic and thus economically rational.
Well that explains how all decisions are made based on money and not morals then.
They interviewed an important sports figure. They get arrested at the hotel questioned for 8 hours locked in different cells with 12 other inmates. They looked through all of their photos. Then they made up a trespassing charge but failed to mention where/when this happened.

> TL;DR: things that people produce such as labor, products, and services are not taxed at all. No payroll taxes [..]

This is actually very logical. Never understood why salaries are taxed so high. Always seemed to me like the governments are punishing workers for actively working.

> Last few decades of USA foreign policy show it more clearly than any reasonable person should require.

I think the last few decades of USA foreign policy show that meaningful change takes time - a long time. We're still protecting South Korea, Germany, and Japan. I would consider all of those successful exercises in "nation building" as once totalitarian nations have built stable democracies.

But in Vietnam, Iraq, and Afghanistan, we simply weren't willing to stay long enough to protect the new democracies from their enemies.
Better ObjC than C++, as was the case on most mobile platforms previously. Imagine, message passing everywhere.
Slight correction - people don't want to live in vertically built accommodations. Everyone wants a nice little house they don't share with anyone. Can't exactly blame them.

Thank you for the answer, but again I’ve said that censoring books is a plot of authoritarian gov. You are considering this an ideological position while it is a fact. I am not here to troll, but be flagged as flamer for saying a fact is very disappointing for a respectful website.
But I understand that people in united states have different sensitivity about truth and facts.

We are talking about Li Wenliang. He wasn’t arrested, threatened, or imprisoned. He had “a talk”, similar to how NSA had “a talk” with a US YouTuber who apparently was not patriotic enough.

The case you are describing is about spreading false news; think Bannon or Alex Jones.
I'll leave alone all of the comments which imply I don't know what I'm talking about and that I'm not very smart, suffice to say you don't need crazy secret sharing systems or bank deposit boxes or anything of the sort to prevent this attack.

A dead-simple soft-wallet, which requires about 2 steps to setup and 2 more to transfer and hold your millions of dollars in, would have prevented this. Roughly 15 minutes of time, at most.

You don't need to be the NSA to secure your crypto, as you seem to be implying.
There is a lot of affinity between Alpine and OpenBSD. That's a good thing in my book.

I build my entire development stack from source and don't rely on OS packages for it, and I absolutely refuse to use binary compiled Python wheels, so Alpine's lack of them is actually a feature as far as I am concerned. I dealt with the musl quirks.

Backup versioning is the important distinction here. A backup on its own is only good against loss, but a backup with multiple snapshots in varying states in place protects against the threat of crypto-locked cloud synchronization.

Of course if the provider is locked then it's a moot point.

No schools in 1987 had color laser printers with this technology (and I doubt many businesses did either). Any students trying to do something fishy would have had to make do with, at best, 24-pin dot matrix printers with color ribbons.

Arguably the point of public school was to develop all bright kids, not just the rich ones. Providing everyone a basic level of education is a very different goal, and I question whether a college-oriented curriculum is good for educating the masses.

The fact that my parents had to pay for both the public school and some tuition for private school (I had financial aid) left a really bad taste in my mouth. On top of that, full tuition at the private school was less than the per-student cost of public school! To me, that is ridiculous.
Minimal-Trust Investigations
This is 100% correct and caused by artificially keeping interest rates low. If the price of money was allowed to find it’s natural equilibrium, these distortions wouldn’t be present. It’s anti-capitalist, market intervention by the fed that’s causing inflated asset prices everywhere. Unfortunately, it ends up most hurting the most venerable in society.
Fair enough. I suppose if a single line must be drawn, it must be drawn somewhere. And that line is apparently $5,000.
To add to this, it's not even necessarily true that the value of land itself is up 10x. It could very well be that the value of dollar is DOWN 10x. The effect on price tag is exactly the same.
People I know who’ve done it:

• getting a drink (alcohol) is a major pain. Either underground, or some elite venue where rules don’t apply - and the jeopardy that goes with that. Really want to spill wine on a Prince? And there are a lot of princes.

• feeling of underlying state level threat if you mess up

• some workers are treated as literal slaves openly

• getting your money home can be troublesome. Check out Dubai airport and abandoned super cars

People who tend to fare better are very career focused and can ignore the above. Also if you or your partner are into the five star life.

Having personally read some of Rand’s fiction as a teen (from my high school library no less!) I think you’d be hard pressed to find a reason to “ban” them.

The narrative in Anthem, for example, is so hilariously over the top I’m not sure what the argument would be. It’s a Pol Pot “Year Zero” style civilization, and the randian superman subverts the established collectivist order by single handedly reinventing the lightbulb in a sewer.

Frankly anyone would be giving it more credibility than it deserves by saying it contains dangerous ideas.
Sure, but they are probably raising prices because their wholesale costs have increased. The didn't just get the idea to raise prices for no reason.
OK. So why are governments going to mandate these "vaccines"? Remember the CDC had to change the definition of vaccine to account for these not preventing illness. Source: https://twitter.com/RepThomasMassie/status/14356068459268710...
A CPU can run any program written for a GPU, yes. But the languages you talk about are no closer to how a CPU work than C is, they might be more ergonomic if you want to take advantage of SIMD instructions but they don't do anything you can't do in C and there are a lot of things you can't do in them since GPU's are much more limited than CPU's.

The national teams usually from the tax payer. At the very least they manage the rights to the local tournaments, which has value in itself.

The issue is that they often also have the same corrupt officials who gain legitimacy through this tournament, they wouldn’t risk losing their status. Imagine they decide to have an alternative tournament, then FIFA owning many rights puts pressure on them, one draws back and the operation fails. Explain that to the fans.
