The sulphide layer that develops is quite non-volatile, so that likely wasn't a direct source of the smell.

It would likely be another organic compound and there is a known mechanism for iron. Compounds in our skin and sweat can react with the iron producing carbonyl- and organophosphine compounds. [0] Those compounds are more volatile than the original biomolecules and are quickly detected by our nose, possibly as an evolutionary response to blood.

Similar processes would surely happen with other metal surfaces, and having a sulphide layer may even play a role providing reaction sites.

There's plenty of small towns, just takes moving there. I prefer them.

Remote work should make them more viable, before you could either just farm or mine.

Industrial period nearly killed small towns as people flocked to the city for factory work.
You had 1 problem: Too many git repos.
Now you have 2 problems: Too many git repos + a monorepo on top of all those repos.

We tried this where I work to solve the issue of having 10x more git repos than people on the team. We got rid of the submodules as fast as we introduced them, they solved nothing and only caused more headaches.

If you want to switch to a monorepo while retaining the history of the multi-repos, use git subtree. You want to get rid of the other repos, not keep them around.
Yes, but good luck getting a licence to do so.

Care to elaborate on what's wrong with Druid?
This is why I liked Ubuntu Unity.

There were few options, but I didn't need them. It worked fine for me out of the box. I add a few apps, a system monitor and I'm good to go.

Xfce is fine after about 10-15min's work, but Unity, for me, is set out of the metaphorical box.
Have you heard Lost Horizon? that cheer me up every time I'm in zombie state in the morning.
1.11 was IMO important to prepare the ground for 2.22 - some subtle differences exist and by not following exact the original story it makes 2.22 stand out more. But by itself it's not that great - probably helps a lot that I watched 1.11 and 2.22 pretty much back to back.

> I think we should differentiate between single-use programs and those that are more of an investment.

No you shouldn’t. What might be single use for Bob might be a daily driver for Bev.

The Ribbon bar is a great example of that. It’s targeting people who use applications daily but I only use Word or Excel sporadically and really miss the old menus and toolbars. But there’s going to be tools I use daily that others might only use sporadically.
Another testimonial about how useless Google search engine has become.

In the past Github clones and similar junk would be purged from the index and banned for good.

Now GSE is their BFF. Sometimes copies are ranked above the original. Fuck the lot of them.
Good is an optimizing function for groups of cooperating people. Once the groups get so big they are taken over by psychopathic elites (this is mostly inevitable) is when the concept of good is ultimately detrimental. Sacrificing for your fellow man is only desirable when that man does not deliberately position himself to consistently profit from such sacrifices.
it's the library, not the models.

$100 for what one (three?) years?

Seriously?

Forget the exorbitant tech salaries, so many other industries charge way more for essential equipment. That's chaper than a single snap-on wrench out of the hundreds that an automative shop has to buy. It's two months of adobe bundle that most graphic designers subscribe to. I think the perspective here is important.
This attitude is one of the reasons for why it will not go anywhere though. There are plenty of alternatives for YouTube. I think the problem is that there are actually way too many. We need only ONE replacement, and it has to get popular enough. The reason I am saying that we need only one replacement is that I do not expect creators to upload their videos to 100 different YouTube-likes.
Exactly. Nearly but not quite right.

I am in no way nostalgic for 1990s OSes -- I remember the pain too vividly -- but
I think this look would be like a hangnail or a toothache: just wrong enough to be constantly irritating.

Now, 1980s OSes, when stuff was still a challenge, now that was fun. :-D
The solution is right there. You pay $50 regardless of whether you are in country A or B Alan’s get access to both leagues.
As a fan of club X I might only be interested in games club X plays in or would at least be willing to pay a lot more for these games, but I still pay for the entire league.

I think that removing geoblocking is an important step for the single market and the creation of a shared European identity.
I think there is another possibility of knowing the value your product gives the customer compared to the competition. Stay firm on that unless the client is essential for your budget. Once a man like that learn that you are not easily manipulated, he either stops being unreasonable, or he doubles down and gladly spend more money on an similar or even inferior product. In the latter case you did not want his business long term anyway, unless you had to.
You don't understand Bitcoin, or Ethereum for that matter.

Ethereum is a product produced by a company. They have an enormous about of control over it. They've changed the token issuance multiple times over its lifetime. Vitalik being a figurehead is also a problem. There's a lot of risk of what happens to the project when Vitalik leaves or dies.

Bitcoin suffers from none of those problems. The issuance has been fixed for 13 years. Any attempts to change important parameters of the consensus rules have failed. The figurehead of the project left years ago when Bitcoin was still small and hasn't been heard from since.

Ethereum and all other alts are products sold by companies.

Bitcoin is simply an open protocol, owned by no one, and yet accessible to anyone. There is no CEO, marketing department, legal team or anything like that. It's just open-source software that people choose to run.

It's similar to email, but instead of sending messages, you can send absolutely scarce "tokens".

It's a subtle difference, but it is vitally important.

> Bitcoin is the most boring coin

Good. Would you really want a new form of money to be "dynamic" and constantly changing? Bitcoin being predictable is a feature. Certainty of issuance so you can't be arbitrarily diluted at the whims of a select few.

> its only valued so much based on speculation and brand recognition

There's a lot more value to Bitcoin than that.

* It's significantly decentralised so it can't be shut down in any practical way

* It can't be easily confisicated if secured correctly. This is important for people living in authoritarian regimes where bank accounts can be easily shut down

* It's permissionless. Anyone can use it, and no one can stop someone from using it

* It's accessible. You just need an internet connection to use the Bitcoin network. Think about what this means for countries with a large portion of unbanked people or currencies that are unstable... yet they have internet and mobile phones

* The Bitcoin network is an always available consumer of energy. This is a game changer for the energy sector because they can recoup lost revenue from excess power

* It's also a non-competitive consumer of stranded energy i.e. energy that can't be transmitted to where people are

You mention brand recognition almost as a bad thing, but network effects are important and powerful... particularly for open networks like Bitcoin.
Well, you do not seem to know all of the meanings of the word 'partial functions'. If one types in 'partial function' in google one can see both the meaning 'partial function' that you have in mind and the meaning of 'partial function' that the article talks about on the first result page. In fact, the 'partial function' of the article appears as the first result. 'CONFUSING' says more about you than about the article.
Hi, it looks nice! I really appreciate efforts like this, does it only supports Rust?

Don’t know Eastern or Western is the best classification but I feel one diverges from a cliche and the other converges into a cliche, as if they’re mirror images.

Whichever one of it you would prefer, each ends of NGE are open ended turbulent static and never happily thereafters.

Perhaps using "outrageous" was hyperbole, let's say "above market" and not 10x the going rate. There's a pretty clear contextual difference between these two situations, nobody is cold calling or going door-to-door finding elderly clients and pressuring them into signing a contract, this is a B2B transaction initiated by the client.
So, to summarize. We do have software engineers in those governments:

Singapore (the chancellor himself), Israel (min. of justice and now interior), Taiwan (egov min.), Bulgaria (egov min.).

Then Greece (Spinellis was just a secretary in finance). Israel has one more in the office of the prime minister, India has 2, but not in the state government and I'm probably missing Estonia and more Baltics. But in Estonia I only see Lipp working in some ministry, not leading it.
No stress. Here are a handful:

- As I mentioned, our business is very different to Basecamp's. We're a technology driven MR and insights consultancy that is increasingly platform and product focussed. As such we have four or five different customer/stakeholder groups, each with their own requirements. Our betting table is therefore larger, and includes representatives from each of these groups, as well as our product managers, and some technical representatives. This makes the meeting tougher to wrangle but does give everyone a voice. Like Basecamp, the CEO and I have final say over what the teams actually work on, but we've only overridden a betting table decision once.

- Our pitches include an ROI estimation. It's not particularly detailed, and we originally used something like t-shirt sizing. We now just give an estimated range. This helps us to have a more dispassionate discussion about which work to prioritise.

- We are about to implement a change to the way we shape pitches, to break this up into two phases which run across two cycles. The first phase will focus on clarity about the problem we're trying to solve, the value of solving it, and our investment appetite. We'll then make decisions about which pitches we want to take to the second phase, which is a kind of extended validation, and will be where more research is carried out, and proposed solutions are roughed out. This should help us more effectively manage workload around pitch preparation, and ensure pitches are ready for teams to start work on at the beginning of cycles where they are prioritised.

- We have regular check-ins with business stakeholders throughout each project, and they are involved in decision-making around any changes of direction or scope, or trade-offs that need to be made.

- We have strong guidance in place for the teams around where they should be throughout the cycle: e.g., when they need to stop adding functionality, and focus on delivery; derisking each project, which should happen early, when UX testing should occur, etc.

- We do sometimes reprioritise our strategic roadmap to ensure that we are adding necessary functionality to our platform in order to bid for and service high value client projects; such projects still get oversight from the betting table and could, at least in theory, be deprioritised if there were serious objections.

It's not all been plain sailing though. For example, we still struggle to appropriately shape small batch projects, and getting people outside of tech onboard with creating pitches is an uphill battle, though one we are slowly winning.
I'm not talking about acquired skill, I'm talking about inherent ability, which is normally distributed due to genetics, evolution, and metabolic limitations. (To argue otherwise leads us on the slippery slope towards eugenics.)
yep, it crashes on Archlinux as well

Just wonder, what is the point of promoting something as "being written in Rust", if at the end it crushed the same way as "being written in C/C++/whatever".

> You've broken capitalism.

I wish!

> One of the principal assumptions of capitalism is a "rational informed consumer".

It's been a long time since I've formally studied economics, so I don't know if this is true, but I'll take your word for it (FWIW, I seem to remember this as being an assumption of a Free Market rather than of Capitalism itself, and the two are often confused - but, no matter, let's proceed as if that's true)

> How will anything show up in your recommendations if no one knows about it?

Well that's sort-of my point - I don't _want_ to be recommended anything. I want to _invite_ information, not to have it thrust upon me. If I want to choose (say) a new hacksaw, or a better laptop, or a place to eat, I want the model to be "I submit a request for information and receive it", not "the Algorithm decides that it's time for me to want those things, and attempts to instill desire in me".

So, maybe that's semantically shifting the goalposts - you might call the response to that request my "recommendations", and that's fair. So, then - what's my problem? Well, now, I want to have confidence that those recommendations are generated based on actual personal opinion that I can trust, not based on what a corporation wants me to do/buy/experience/think. And I think (I'm still working this out) that the only way to do that is to remove financial incentive from the system. I don't know then what incentive _would_ exist for people to provide their opinions or reviews - that's an interesting problem.

Even in computer programming, it makes sense to use the language most suitable to solve the problem at hand. Most humans don't speak programming languages.

Yes, you probably could formulate an employment contract in Rust – just like you could write a graphics driver in Rockstar [1].

And yes, many legal systems in the world are slow, inefficient, and prone to be gamed by the wealthy and powerful. I'd really rather we don't add a second layer of indirection and gatekeeping on top of or beneath that.

I'd argue the optimum strategy requires you be at least a little optimistic.

Humans are biased to outweigh the importance of losses vs gains when considering expected value. At a minimum a some optimism is required to offset this bias.
I enjoy watching a couple of shows about home renovations that take place in the US (some twin brothers and love or list it, or something like that). Two things always strike me as odd as an European:

* People on that show always needs a shit load of space. Especially in the kitchens, for some reason. Sometimes they are a couple without kids or maybe have one kid but they want 2 ovens? And a huge island is a must. Most of the kitchens in those shows are bigger than the average living room in my country.

* Houses made out of wood and walls that you can punch through. This is a different matter though.
Arabic-script typography on the web can also be complicated. I did a review/demonstration of some fonts and issues that they may need to handle:

https://www.theobeers.com/arabic-font-tests/

The tl;dr for people who want Arabic-script text to look ok in their projects, without making it a focus, is that a modern "native font stack" (à la Bootstrap) does a fine job. I just wouldn't recommend allowing things to fall straight back to "serif" or "sans-serif."
Archimedes – Your Investment Coach
Please be aware there is also the "The Voluntary Human Extinction Movement".
https://www.vhemt.org/

It is led by Les Knight.

Here is quick explanation, from their site:

'''
VHEMT (pronounced vehement) is a movement not an organization. It’s a movement advanced by people who care about life on planet Earth. We’re not just a bunch of misanthropes and anti-social, Malthusian misfits, taking morbid delight whenever disaster strikes humans. Nothing could be farther from the truth. Voluntary human extinction is the humanitarian alternative to human disasters.

We don’t carry on about how the human race has shown itself to be a greedy, amoral parasite on the once-healthy face of this planet. That type of negativity offers no solution to the inexorable horrors which human activity is causing.

Rather, The Movement presents an encouraging alternative to the callous exploitation and wholesale destruction of Earth’s ecology.

As VHEMT Volunteers know, the hopeful alternative to the extinction of millions of species of plants and animals is the voluntary extinction of one species: Homo sapiens... us.

I certainly like the promotional video, "Thank You For Not Breeding".

> But there are so many valuable papers in CS that just presented an idea. If you ignored them you’d be ignorant of how to do 90% of modern engineering.

You are right. But that is why we are having this discussions, so we can improve situation.

Having even bad code (and corresponding data) available is always better than not. You can always just ignore it, and read the papers like today.

Honestly I am ok with just zip file of project directory that you have anyway, with hopefully list of versions of os, libs and programs used.

We could do a lot better than just a zip file, but that would be a nice start.
Webassembly makes a lot of sense for plugins.

* sandboxing, so plugins don't need to be as trusted

* Easy cross-platform distribution with a single build artifact

* plenty fast (if written in a language like Rust/C++ and paired with a good runtime)
Legally speaking; of course it is.

Morally speaking; depends on your morals ;)

I dont understand the second obfuscation technique haha like what even?
Of course.

This is the funny thing about Bitcoin. Once you've researched it sufficiently you are compelled to buy some because you understand the fundamentals of its value proposition.

But then critics will point out that you own Bitcoin so you're now clearly biased because you have skin in the game.

I guess you could call it the Bitcoin paradox, or the Catch-22 of Bitcoin?

Once you understand it you buy it, but now no one will listen to you about it because you're "compromised".

There's nothing I can do about that other than to suggest you look into it further if you're curious.
Lost a channel that was in good standing for 14 years in a similar way. I would have appreciated being able to download the hundreds of playlists and the watch history I built, as is guaranteed under the provisions of the EU GDPR legislation. Unfortunately the export tool didn't produce any data.

Thanks. That's exactly the kind of answer I'd hope I would get. Precise and actionable.

Admittedly, I'm a fan of serverless. I believe serverless will soon become a dominant form of cloud computing. I think it is just a matter of immaturity of the platforms and lack of tools. While I can't do much about the platforms, I can try to build better tools.

The position you're describing is either solipsistic (I am the only thing that exists, all else is illusion before me) or it is religious (we are al Brahman, the division of the world into things is Maya, illusion).

I fully agree that there is no way to prove this position is wrong, but I think you also have to accept that you can't prove that materialism is wrong. I would say materialism is more useful than solipsism or transcendentalism, but this is a subjective assessment.
I think WASI is an excellent idea. Do you know how the ABI works?
