Love to see this in here. Wondering what the author's personal definition of artist is though.
This is why Henry George supported a tax on land value, not on property value.
Right but why didn't they die quicker if they were IC and so sick?
There's more made up stuff on there. Like a claim that unregulated markets are quickly filled with monopolies etc. Yet the only monopolies I see today are set up and protected by the government. And those have abysmal level of service and are really hard to use.

> I watch most everything with subtitles. Not just for this reason, but because the vocal track tends to be really low and the MUSIC and GUN FIRE track really high

I just noticed this trying to watch Amazon's new Wheel of Time series. It doesn't matter what the volume on the TV is - the background music and effects are so much louder than the dialog that I can't understand what people are saying.
Have you used any of them "at least once in your life"?
Current best practice is to only remove if it can’t be encapsulated.
I mean, sure, you are probably going to be 80-90% on any monitor that doesn't hurt your eyes (crappy refresh rate) and can support bitmapped graphics (not just a TTY terminal display). But having lived through multiple iterations of displays starting from plain old TTYs (4 inches at that!), I really appreciate display advancements and getting access to better/bigger ones.
Understanding every word seems to be a personal preference and if that is someones preference don't see a Nolan movie. Most of his movies fool around with timeline, visuals and speech to create some disorientation. Memento would be a screaming example of that. You could find the dvd chapter order and watch it linearly if you wanted to. But that would seem to me to completely avoid the purpose of the movie.

When I watched Tenet I had to let parts of my thinking go and just let it wash through me as it went without constantly trying to think too hard about what was happening. Dark corners were later illuminated, some weren't, but ok. My wife couldn't handle the start of it as there was too much not understood. I thought it was great and worth another watch.

For other movies, as discussed in the piece, there is more going on with dialogue quality that isn't intended. That's the real shame.
It was a genuine answer.

Is force not linearly related to the gravity / undesirability of the mandate?

Are increasingly draconian mandates not rebuffed by more and more people?

Are there not plentiful examples of "Socialist" societies attempting to enforce more and harsher mandates, against anyone not willing to "give their fair share"?

If people are allowed to leave such systems for ones more to their liking, do they not flee, unless forced not to?

If those who don't "give their fair share" try to leave and are forced to stay, and staying means that they or their children may die, will they not fight to the death to escape?
Like 1/3 to 1/2 of the problems in this list are just problems with using AWS or other cloud providers. I say this all the time, and nobody takes it seriously: Don't use the cloud. The cloud costs more, requires more work to set up, and provides you with machines with broken IO and 1/50th the capacity you would get if you just racked servers yourself.

Let me say it again:
Compared to buying servers from Dell (or whoever) and driving them down to the local COLO and plugging them in yourself, the cloud:

- Costs more (between 5x and 20x more over the course of a 4 year depreciation for hardware).

- Is more work in the end, by a large factor (you are going to do a ton of stuff you don't need and are never going to use with the cloud. When something goes wrong you are going to spend days or months trying to fix it. Performance is so bad that you have to build very complex solutions to problems that it is very easy to just throw hardware at, like having a db server with millions of IOps, which is extremely easy if you rack hardware and basically unreasonable due to cost and hard limits in the cloud (Well over $10K/month for Postgres at 80,000 iops, which is the most you can provision).

- It's more work up front, even if you have no idea how to do anything to start with. For your deployments to be secure you have to know what you are doing either way, in AWS you just have less choices of how to set things up. Most things in AWS are at least as hard or harder than doing them yourself, and you can't fix problems you run into. Their tier 1 and tier 2 support are completely useless and just do keyword matching against their scripts.

- It costs WAY more. You pay for more than the cost to buy much better hardware and the cost to colo that hardware every 4 months. Yes that is right, if you go buy a pile of servers from dell and rack them in a colo, or buy the same capacity from EC2, the EC2 capacity you get will be far lower. Far far far lower. And you can't customize it or redeploy it for other uses as it gets older.

- When things break, you can't fix them. You just have to live with it or stop caring. IO to disk stalls randomly leaving processes in uninterruptible IO wait status for 100ms? Get fucked, they not only won't admit it's a problem, they will also hide this fact from you in all their cloudwatch metrics, and deny it is happening. Maybe it's a noisy neighbor, maybe it's their terrible networking stack, who knows, you'll never figure it out and you probably can't fix it even if you do. I have weird failure scenarios in AWS all the time that I have never seen or even contemplated as reasonable to consider on my own hardware.

- Cloud deployments are stupid. K8 is an awful system built by children who don't what is important. I don't even directly deal with K8 as my actual job, but I spend more time worrying about K8 to get code shipped today than I ever spent maintaining deployment scripts when I had to own deployments end-to-end.

I used 1080p for 5 years with a 33 inch screen, it was very good.

For 4 years I have used a 27-29 inch screen at 2k, that's incredible. I now use a 34" wide angle screen at 2k, which I find even better, since I have a bit more width without much (or any?) extra height.

At this exact moment I am on a 34" ultrawide and it's too wide for me I have to turn my head too much.

Bottom line, you can get 27" 2k screens for very cheap now and it's a step up from the 1080p, but yeah, the 1920x1080 is fine.
No, if you collect money to pay for it it will be built. Or if the inventors themselves want the water and build it for themselves.
I've been using Vivaldi for at least a couple of years now - strictly for banking - and I fully agree on the slowness of the application. It's awful.

I came from the original Opera (before it transferred ownership) and I loved the UI/UX and performance of it. I was hoping Vivaldi would replicate that, but it's been an enormous pain in the ass lately with websites either not loading (they work fine in Firefox and Chrome), tabs crashing spontaneously, the app crashing spontaneously, and the horrid performance. These issues seem to occur across my different other laptops also.

I use it exclusively for banking as I said, so it's only used once or twice a month but I would never use Vivaldi on a regular basis with the way it currently works.

I will say though, I really like their mobile app so far. There was a weird tab duplication bug on it earlier in the year and they fixed it really quick, but outside of that it's been pretty great.
None of the listed software is exclusive to Linux.
If it didn't say "Electron" in the title, I'd have thought he was describing Java. I don't see why Electron itself is a necessary evil - Java has been able to do all of this (just as badly) for over 20 years.
Not sure why, when every flagship phone has rounded corners, we don't all use circular monitors. It completely solves the rotation issue, and is stylish too.

Just to clarify myself. If I have already logged in and now closed the window. Again open a tab and send request to the server, won't the token/cookies/sessioninfo etc. be sent in the initial request to the page? And if the auth info is sent via the headers, can we not check the user login status (expired sessions) at the server and send the right component back?
Palm Springs and Scottsdale are magnitudes hotter than LA. When I used to live in Scottsdale, every day between early May and end of September will be above 100. LA weather barely gets into the 90s. Most days it is between 75-85. Also, Palm Springs and Scottsdale do not have beaches, do not have nearly the same level of entertainment (music venues, clubs, bars, nightlife, two football teams, two basketball teams, stories baseball teams). Not to mention access to nature, wine countries, international airports etc. I lived in LA for 2 years, even with all its traffic problems, it is a 10x more interesting place to live than Scottsdale
Scary number of people, not even of religious sort, think that it's perfectly fine to pick and choose which parts of scientific achievement they accept and which they don't. It's more on the scale of what they like or don't like. They might like their smartphones and other gadgets, not so much vaccines, fluoride, GMO, all that which isn't 'natural' or 'organic'.

So yes, it is a question of people grasping the science, not of this specifically, but as a whole. They are not on-board, they never fully confront any contradictions that they encounter or spew. Logic is not their friend, they are not inquisitive, getting to the bottom of something is not in their nature. You might think that in general people are reasonable, but margins are not that high and informed-ness is very surface-level.
25 years ago I worked on the air traffic control system modernization.
We were using Sony CRTs that were square 2Kx2K with hardware anti-aliasing.
The were drop dead gorgeous. I assumed that 25 years forward (today) that everyone would be able to buy such monitors below $1000 (they were like $10K in 1996 dollars).

Why no square monitors? Hollywood?
From what I can see, many cities are much more open to commercial zones being rezoned to high density mixed-use. There's quite a lot of empty strip malls and big box retailer spaces these days. Nearby businesses don't mind the change in zoning since it brings in a reliable customer base, and it's easier attracting people to live there since its conveniently located near shopping.
I got myself the 49" Ultra-wide monitor from Dell [1] and it's a fantastic product. I was never really a fan of using two monitors so having two 27" monitors in one screen is really amazing and it becomes even better if you combine it with FanzyZones [2] to manage the window layout.

i've been using vivaldi for the past 3 years, and it's fantastic.
i really like the customizability, the stacked tabs feature, the builtin rss reader (which by the way, lets you subscribe to youtube channels!). really hope they make it, because the thought of going back to chrome makes me shudder now.
Your other points also assume crypto asset users even care about it as a replacement financial system as opposed to a merely parallel one

I just use it and it works for what I want, and yeah for me it is faster and cheaper and better due to the lack of transaction size limits
Most smartphones draw roughly one third of the power of an idling Pi at max load (without counting the screen draw), that's what I'm comparing against. I'd check some benchmarks, but the gap in consumption is so hilariously large I don't quite see the point.

Something like 6W for the Pi 4 and 2W for the average flagship smartphone chipset, both under max load if I recall right. Some of them even have double the core count.
Yes, just no.
Just to be pedantic. Covid-19 is the disease, not the virus. SARS-COV-2 is the virus.

A subscriber-supported search engine sounds cool to me. Any precedent?
I’m against it because it’s physically impossible to sign up people in any quantity and doesn’t offer the same guarantees as the L1. We can talk about an L3 when there is one.

I've not even got anything against LN per se, what I'm pushing back on is the marketing that it's some sort of panacea, that it makes BTC a viable payment mechanism, or even that its particularly interesting.
I had a thought that subtitles could also be used to provide an "explainer" for those movies where the plot is so complex and so much knowledge is assumed, its almost impossible to understand what is going on.
This would have been great for the Foundation movie.
> Science is the only and ultimate final authority

Junk science led to the American eugenics movement that included forced sterilization of 64k Americans in the early 1900s.

I love science, but calling it the only and ultimate authoritity leaves a lot of room to create a world we don't want to live in. This happens because scientists disagree themselves on almost everything. Recognizing the difference in science as an ideal versus science put in practice makes me not want to agree with your statement.
Yeah, it is too expensive. Nobody goes there anymore
A site which scrapes answers in different programming languages, answers that people posted on Reddit.

Created by d-fly here https://old.reddit.com/r/adventofcode/comments/r6cmn1/aocweb...

Always find it interesting how differently long and effortful the answers are in different languages and by different people, and think of that when people are arguing about 10x developers.
Just zoom out. Make sure you use page zoom and not text zoom. No need for extensions.
Yeah I mean, what do you figure the value of a SFH would be in downtown Manhattan?

SFH's or rather, the underlying land the house sits on, is going to become insanely valuable as the amount available dwindles and population grows.

There is no unwinding this trend. The only thing that can be done is to ignore and not worry about the price of a SFH, and subdivide the land into more apartments so that more people can afford to live on that parcel of land.
I think it's naive to call politicians stupid. It's clear it's the incentives, particularly the health insurance industry that blocks any effort for universal healthcare; and in the American system it's too easy for one senator to completely stonewall any legislation. For example, it was Joe Lieberman, a senate in Obama's own party, the completely gutted many of the socialized aspects of Obamacare.
At least java is actually typesafe
in a vacuum yes, the legacy system doesn't have any of those agent-driven issues. given enough time and freedom from interference, you can incrementally fix it or rewrite the whole thing from scratch. but if you leave out the context of users and management, it doesn't really matter how you choose to fix it or whether you do at all.

in reality, you have customers that are very upset about the sudden spike in observable defects, you have other teams mad because they are triaging a bunch of bugs introduced by your refactor, and you have management wondering why the fuck you have spent multiple months working on stuff that has no clear connection to a marketable feature. you might also have a couple of seniors/principals who actively oppose your efforts because they benefit from being the only people who really understand the mess you are trying to clean up. and of course, all of that messy people stuff is probably a large part of why the system is so tangled up to begin with.

I certainly don't think political systems are exactly like computer systems, but it seems like a lot of the high-level lessons are applicable to both.
Right! I wish they had made it like https://howdns.works/ep1
It is interesting that you say that. This is fact already exists. An unbundled version of electron, that can be used by multiple applications, is called a web browser. Applications using it are called websites (or PWAs if you must)
Tone and timing matters. If the interviewer had interrupted the candidate's train of thought, or spoken it during a particularly tense moment, it can really throw off their game.

Code reviews after already being hired and accepted into a company are not comparable to interviews during the application process, when the specter of rejection still looms.
Seems like it would have to be 5U if sideways...the M1 minis are 7.7 inches / 19.7cm tall.
It's Not about Numbers
Opinions are sometimes dangerous because a less educated mind may not fully grasp the entire scenario. Speaking on rote memorization of multiplication tables, it's not about numbers; it's about making connections inside tat wonderous gray matter that we call our brain. Therefore, by learning early the concept of rote memory and recall, the brain builds the synapses and dentrites neccesary in building a living data base for future entries in any field. Without first developing that circuit, students will not run to the calculator - in high school - when I say, "What is 11 times zero?" It happens because the student has not developed the area where memorizing such simple key factors - 'Any number times zero is zero.' occurs. Memorizing multiplication tables is not about numbers; it's about you and your brain.

Key fobs! Isn't there a scheme where thieves clone the signal from a key fob when the owner is asleep in their home and drive off with their car?
I suspected spillback for Alpha because it had a bunch of intermediate mutations that were never seen in other lineages. But no animal reservoir was found and I now think the immunocompromised single patient explanation is more likely. I can see a patient that is known to have spending 6 months in a hospital bed not infecting anyone, because they are isolated and only seen by medical staff with serious protective clothing and masking. Then at some point someone slips up and it escapes.

The article speculates that the animal reservoir could be rodents. If so, it's not sewer rats, at least not in one of the many countries that samples sewage to monitor outbreaks.
