I am running a 3k base system (from work that I chose) and a 1k graphics card. Literally saying on the packaging "VR READY" while running Windows 10.

Forgive me that it is "finicky" in my "specific setup".

Paying 80 pound for a wire so I can play titles such as Alyx while being wired seems reasonable to me. I mean, they literally sell you a wire for 1/3 the cost of the headset as a product so there is a market for it and they should provide me with a "Don't ask again" checkbox given that it's the same system but they don't?

Very few things conceptually work well in VR. Sorry. Lets see how you play FIFA for example or literally anything that doesn't involve just arm and head movements that is worth the effort.

I am very aware of the VR market and out of everything you said, the only thing I will accept is "I Expect you to Die" and it's sequel but the rest of those are tired at best bringing nothing new.

Sorry friend, I doubt I will be ringing bells any time soon for the "METAVERSE" based on what I have seen whilst keeping in mind that I am aware that I can play what are essentially bad unity games on my headset without PCVR.

Even a "suspected" serial killer isn't a serial killer until convicted and jailed as such (innocent until proven guilty) if they had access to the street to try and make their getaway.
As others mention, you can do it manually. But it’s also not that hard to do automatically: literally just spin up a “client” of your service and make sure it works.
I think they meant that if anyone had the power to protect people's rights, they would also have the power to violate people's rights, and they would use that power in the same way as today's rights violators. If so, I think they are absolutely right on that point, and it holds true regardless of what you believe those rights are.

I certainly think some things are inherently wrong, but doing those things are not any more difficult than doing other things, and it's probably easier to do them than it is to prevent them. We can't rely on an organization or institution to protect us because any such group will always promote and protect each other first. Instead, we need to promote a culture of direct action on an individual level, praise and encourage whistleblowers, activists, saboteurs and others who do what they think is right to weaken the power of institutions over individuals. We won't always agree with their goals, judgement, and morals, but as long as they don't use methods that are unequivocally wrong (such as violence against non-violent people), we should support them because individual action is in aggregate much better (and much less dangerous) than institutional actions.
> I thought about several things and knew in that moment exactly what needed to be done in each of them, with what felt like more than absolute certainty.

Exactly!
Like artists, some programmers are able to make the tradeoffs to get the product out the door and others aren't. Compare Brandon Sanderson, who announces annually what to expect from him in the coming year and generally lives up to it, to Patrick Rothfuss, who lashes out to attack any fan who asks about the novel he claimed to be working on for the last 10 years. Similar to game titles such as Minecraft vs Star Citizen. Some people will never finish or keep starting over or keep expanding scope, and others have a gift of the ability to balance conflicting needs just right.

It's more about getting the right personalities on your team than giving blanket license for artists to take as long as they please.

Some orgs really do have lousy availability figures (such as my own, the Navy).

We have an environment we have access to for hosting webpages for one of the highest leaders in the whole Dept of Navy. This environment was DOWN (not "degrade availability" or "high latencies"), literally off of the Internet entirely, for CONSECUTIVE WEEKS earlier this year.

Completely incommunicado as well. It just happened to start working again one day. We collectively shrugged our shoulders and resumed updating our part of it.

This is an outlier example but even our normal sites I would classify as 1 "nine" of availability at best.
True, but to be honest, CyberPunk itself was a problematic RPG for a number of reasons. It was deadly beyond most RPGs (well, except for Call of Cthulhu), and one of the archetypes was called a Solo which didn't lend itself to group play. Maybe it is actually a game better suited to a video game.

On a side note, if you can get the CyberPunk 2020, it will give you a chuckle on the tech comparison with the real world. I think it fits into the Cassette Punk genre.
I've always thought that showing off is poor taste and will never do it even if it's now somehow trendy to be a shallow sell out aka marketing.

Do people see your work on cpan and contact you based on it?
My point is that taking it to the extreme then stopping at tabletop as the natural best is nonsense. Tabletop has rules. If rules are the enemy then tabletop is not the ultimate. People enjoy frameworks. On one end of the spectrum is pretend play and on the other is a movie theatre. What spectrum of interactive entertainment you want to participate in is purely subjective and one is not "better" than another. Having fewer limits is not a virtue. It is worth nothing.
> The estate of George Orwell has approved a feminist retelling of Nineteen Eighty-Four, which reimagines the story from the perspective of Winston Smith’s lover Julia.

I do not expect "Julia" to be an exceptional book, but, for me, it seems a good excuse to revisit Nineteen Eighty-Four from a different perspective.
FWIW working conditions in the NHS are (also) very stressful, largely because the system is cash-constrained and runs heavily on staff goodwill. And, while the shenanigans of brutal corporate management are largely absent, the shenanigans of continuous politically-motivated reorganisation and contracting out are not.

Don't get me wrong, I'm a big fan of the NHS. It's humane, generally provides very good care, and (in comparative terms) is cheap. It'd be a happier place if it wasn't permanently having to handle demand increasing faster than budget.

You can try, but so many games have been released half-finished, never subsequently completed via patches, and as a result sunk their studio and the whole franchise they were a part of. Games that should have become classics instead remain half-finished, mostly forgotten messes, and all the work those people put into the game are wasted in the long run. Why? To meet a holiday ship date?

I'd be willing to believe they had some elite high level reason to schedule things this way if I thought they were good at scheduling. In my ~10 years there I never saw a major project go even close to schedule.

I think it's more like the planning people get rewarded for creating plans that look good and it doesn't bother them if the plans are unrealistic. Then, levels of middle management don't want to make themselves look bad by saying they're behind. And, ultimately, everyone figures they can play a kind of schedule-chicken where everyone says they're green or yellow until the last possible second, hoping that another group will raise a flag first and give you all more time while you can pretend you didn't need it.
Not sure that adds up as a theory - they don't use that phrase, the US isn't a nation-state, and Vault 7 wasn't the NSA anyway was it?
shotgun ? you mean like a fishnet ? or a mass fire tool ?
That's one I forgot to mention but I do use it a lot. I don't know if you know this but you can also do a substitution on the previous command. I often do something like `ssh root@proxmox01` and then `!!:s/1/2` which runs it again, but substitutes 1 for 2 and executes `ssh root@proxmox02`.

edit: I realize that example fails the speed test vs `ctrl+p, backspace, 2, enter`, but hopefully you can see the value.
I spent some time on the platform a little over a year ago when looking for a new job. People outright rip other "influencers" on the platform off. I have seen, likely dozens of posts, all worded very similarly, along the lines of "This candidate wasn't a good hire on paper, but I went with my gut and two years later they are the CEO!". It takes them a couple of paragraphs to do what I did in a sentence there, but multiple unrelated people told that same narrative with minor details interchanged. Some of them direct copy and pastes. All within a week or two of each other.

Don't get me started on the "tech" people I've seen on there, they spend more time talking about getting a job in tech than coding, complete hacks (and not in a good way).
A centralized state ruled by the communist party is the commonly understood meaning. You almost certainly understood the intent before you mistook the explanation for a definition, dropped the word "communist", and argued against a literal interpretation of the words.

Pre-revolution Bolsheviks argued that a centralized socialist state was a necessary step before achieving "true" communism. Kropotkin disagreed (one meaning of "critical") with that. He supported the February revolution and returned to the country after that, but he refused to take a position in the moderate socialist government. Kropotkin gladly supported the October revolution that replaced the moderate socialists with radical ones. He was strongly opposed to (another meaning of "critical") the "war communism" that emerged after the second revolution, and he didn't live to see the period of state capitalism that followed.

In any case, the system we currently understand as communism didn't emerge until around 1930, making it irrelevant when talking about Kropotkin.

>Pray tell, what are some relevant "purposes and matters" where an expressed age would be more practical than a... legally binding one?

The premise of this case is that an individual wants to change their legal age to what they feel is their expressed age. This would enable them to take advantage of the legal and social practicalities of the younger age.

Examples of why some purposes why someone might want to be treated as the age they identify with might be:

To receive legal benefits

corresponding to the age they identify as.

Be protected against discrimination for representing their identified age.

Compete in sporting events for their identified age.

We have socially settled on the idea that mend and women are equals, and that people can identify as either men or women as they choose.

Assuming someone is an adult, they are are considered equal. Why not allow the right to be treated as the age they identify with.
What worked for me years ago was writing down my dreams. After a while I got really good at recalling them and even lucid dreaming at times. It was really cool, but I was single. Now I wouldn't want to wake my wife.

In a sense, yes. But the outcome of this process is deliberate rather than mechanical. You choose how much information to expose to callers at each layer. You can display it to users, in a pinch.
I would say that is an oversimplification. People use Delphi, but it's not aimed at hobbyists, independent developers, or arguably even small businesses. Embarcadero (owner of Delphi) goes for the deep pockets and the enterprise. The very obvious problem with that tactic is you dry up your grassroots. Which was a problem for some years.

To compensate, Embarcadero now leans on its free Community Edition of Delphi and cheap school/academic licenses, to create a developer talent pool. The other quiet thing that they do is also lean on open source Free Pascal/Lazarus to help build an Object Pascal community and more interest.

For those that don't know, Delphi is a dialect of Object Pascal. Lazarus allows importing of Delphi projects, and is a pretty similar dialect, though there are differences.

Another element of the game played by Embarcadero (and Borland before it), is a lot of people don't realize they have a foot in the C++ world too, with their C++ Builder and open-source Dev-C++. They have other products in which they get revenue from too or to get attention.

I love historical fiction! What a great find. The complexity of social change in this time is amazing, that people can go from slave and serfdom to positions of authority as the enlightenment unwinds pre revolutionary social structures.

Also, Theres the implicit dependence on slave labour in "Mansfield park" driving the departure of the "adults in the room" which carries much of the middle chapters of Austen forward.
Not really, left anarchists and communists are after the same goal through different means. Kropotkin and Marx went back and forth, often disagreed, but only on matters pertaining to authority. Ultimately they both wanted a stateless classless and moneyless society.
There was an AZ outage in Oregon a couple months back. You should definitely go multi AZ without hesitation for production workloads for systems that should be highly available. You can easily lose a system permanently in a single AZ setup if it’s not ephemeral.
Interesting, do they make a similar effort to hire IntelliJ staff? I mean they could offer a much higher sallary than what they would get in Russia. Or is it all due to having the top guy, who is in the know on who-is-who?
That "internal network" hosts an awful lot of stuff- it's not just network hardware, but services that mostly use DNS to find each other. Besides that, it's just plain useful for network devices to have names.

> The question is whether things are better or worse on balance. And by that accounting I think there are lots of reasons to be optimistic.

Such as? Nuclear arsenals are still a thing and more countries have them now. Inflation is ramping up right now and many people say the economy is on the verge of being utterly fucked. Apart from that it seems like you're generalizing life from a small town specific to your family. I can cherry pick anecdotes from my own life to paint a picture either way too, it doesn't really tell us anything substantial.
Didn't Benjamin Franklin do this? If I recall from his biography, he'd essentially hold a marble or something while in his rocking chair and it would drop onto a plate
History is written by the victor. I'm plenty happy to see anti-slavery culture propagated to future generations.
those early Yamaha FM synths has a sound all on to themselves

For sure, though the parent comment's video link was presumably rendered by software on a PDP-10. I've spent the last week of my spare time trying to write code to make a bass sound that reasonably approximates Lately Bass, and I'm close, but since I'm not even trying to emulate any of the quirks of the Yamaha FM synths it doesn't ever sound quite right.

The good thing with that is just to say "you feel sick" assuming your life got so terrible that you are working in VR with a fake avatar with no legs sitting in front of a fake rendered desk in a fake rendered office whilst the boss has time to watch your every move in VR.

It's comical to the point that I don't know if people here are serious or taking the piss.
GTA is a crappy bugfest as well, the graphics are very outdated, and the NPCs are quite limited in what they do; the world isn't realistic at all and frame rates routinely drop for no real reason. I haven't played Cyberpunk 2077 (yet), but I highly doubt it's as simple a game and as limited as GTA, which I have played a lot. I think it failed in part because they tried to port the game to those consoles, and it was just too complex for them, after seeing gameplay footage from it a while ago.
Or come to North Dakota where in 1936 we recorded our highest (121°F in Steele on July 6) and lowest (-60°F in Parshall on February 15) temperatures.

I once had a grant that had data about the summer high and winter low effects on car maintenance of low income families. Its amazing what such a wide range of temps will do to the employment of rural low income families.

Last year's -35°F day before wind chill (which sent it down to truly horrific) was a pure pain in the butt.

This is an important debate that comes up all too often. I do think this is the proper forum for this, so I'm glad you brought this up and I would be happy to share my thoughts.

The more information people have had in the history of humanity, the more freedoms and liberties we have also had. We would likely still be living in monarchies if not for the spread of information -- North Korea is a prime example.

If information is good and people agree with it, they will consume it and the swarm will be well seeded and public consensus will have spoken. If information is bad and people disagree with it, they won't consume it and the swarm will be sparse at best, at which point, it will be easy for ISPs and others to block access to these swarms.

Torrents have been around for a long time, but terrorists haven't really utilized them much. On the other hand, anime really has to give its thanks to Bram haha.

Just because there are gun abusers, you wouldn't want to take away the 2nd amendment which keeps the government in check. The same goes for information or discourse and the 1st amendment. The day we censor ourselves is the day we throw away liberty.

Most of my Coderpad stuff compiles and runs the first time, so I don't use his incremental test method, or see a need for it. Maybe he learned programming on heavy-weight IDEs and got trapped mentally in those?

Wow what a story!

Theyve had that free license for one or two years now, before that there was nothing.

Lazarus was and is the better choice in any case.

F# has some nice features that scala is lacking, such as a more terse syntax for ADTs or type providers.

But other than that, Scala is miles ahead. And if you want to do pure FP, then Scala is the only option.

Also about that video, almost all of the points mentioned are either not available in other languages like F# anyways, or they already fixed in the latest Scala version.

Neither the readme nor the official website seem to explain why I would want this. I guess it’s supposed to be self evident, but it’s not to me.

As someone from a ddirect culture, I find that people who describe themselves as such just use it as am excuse to be rude.

Direct does not equate an absence of sensitivity and tact.
Libel is extremely easy to win actually seeing as you have evidence of malice to undermine someones character. The key is proving losses. Like Stossel said, most of the media companies he worked for would have fired him if he misattributed a quote. Facebook is getting a free pass to libel people they dont like.

If Facebook did this to Democrats, they would be demanding a reform much like the republicans. They dont because Facebook promotes the same ideology as them.
Wow, I have this exact same experience before falling asleep. It feels like a direct shift in the thought processes, and as you described it, it feels as though you have become a passive observer of your own thoughts. The images are sometimes so absurd and creative that I almost laugh to myself. But I also, don't KNOW if the images are creative or absurd, but just my brain believing it so -- is there even a difference? If anyone has ever had a "genius" idea while high, written it down, and read it the next day, you know what I mean...

Just as you mentioned, this switch lets me know, I'm gonna be asleep in the next few seconds. I also often listen to audiobooks or ASMR while lying down to sleep, and just as this state kicks in, I know its time to flick out my earbuds just before I lose consciousness. However, sometimes I'm even able to ride this wave right into sleep -- as in, from weird observer state right into the dream world. I was actually thinking about this a few days ago, and did some very quick searching, but couldn't find anything -- I wonder if we are observing the switching of our own brainwaves from alpha to theta?

I'd like to ask other people that experience this: do you also have high rates of sleep paralysis? I get it almost nightly. My dreams are also very vivid, and I remember about 80% of them. Also, if I wake up during a dream, upon falling back asleep, I'm able to "continue" them. Maybe I'll try this Dali method a bit, who knows!
Vanilla JS is best I recommend sticking with that and improving your skills. Everyone thinks they need a framework but Vanilla is powerful if you know what you are doing
Honestly, the should host that status page on CloudFlare or some completely separate infrastructure that they maintain in colo datacenters or something. The only time it really needs to be up is when their stuff isn't working.
One is : a society that is not capitalist, ie, the means of production are owned by the workers.

The other is, apparently, a centralized society run by people that call themselves communist.
