Nice work!

I've used this feature in GNU Screen and found it very helpful.

I am not sure if there is a similar feature in Tmux.

It is good to see nice, feature-packed alternative since terminal multiplexing is an incredibly useful and powerful tool.
I nerd-sniped myself ;-)
We’re going to be having this same tired, pedantic, round-about conversation when Tesla’s routinely decide to take out a family of four because it mistook a plastic bag for an off-ramp.

Commenters will show up like clockwork and say shit like:

“What man, it’s not like cars didn’t crash before? Haha”

Don’t be dense dude. And definitely don’t pursue a leadership position anytime in the future.
I have a gut feeling that Americans care more about this than Ukrainians themselves. I am no fan of russia and using the "incorrect" spelling kiev instead of kyiv doesn't imply that IMO.
Some datacenter failures aren't related to redundancy. Some examples: 1) transfer switch failure where you can't switch over to backup generators and the UPS runs out, 2) someone accidentally hits the EOD, 3) maintenance work makes a mistake such as turning off the wrong circuits, 4) cooling doesn't switch over fully to backups and while your systems have power, its too hot to run. The list can go on and on.

I'm not sure why this is a big deal though, this is why Amazon has multiple AZ's. If your in one AZ, you take your chances.
Big Tech has nothing to do with it, as the tech is spreading everywhere, and to the governments as well.

I was filling out a government form for a relative of mine to get on a plane (Covid-19 regulations). After filling out all the relevant details, I got the negative answer "BOARDING DENIED" because "You are not in compliance with all the regulations".

It never said _which_ regulation of these "all" we weren't in compliance with, exactly.

It took me hours to get to an intelligent person in the ministry hotline, if we skip the "try again" and "try from another PC" and "you've tried too many times and so are banned" guys. After some convincing, they agreed to fill out the form for us. It turned out the system expects TWO vaccination dates, not one, to give its permission, although never says so clearly.

With Tinder, you can move to another platform, but when the government tech decides whether or not you're allowed to board the plane, they usually monopolize that.
Now, they just need to make really, really advanced research and in the future release the most advanced ratio:

20:15

And people would love it...

For realz, I long after a taller monitor...

It might just because I grew up with a 4:3 but I think that aspect ratio really hits the spot for work - for movies and stuff 16:9 is frankly better..

And I prefer 16:9 on laptops too due to the shallower base it allows..
Their datacenter(s) aren’t magic because they are AWS. That facility is probably a decade old and like anything else as it ages the technical and maintenance debt makes management more challenging.
This needs to take spaces and sentences into account. For example, "hacker news" will find results about regular news and no comments have the word "hacker" in them.
Each of one has its one interesting stories to be told.
Thanks, but that's not enough :)
I'm a native English speaker who's studying Russian (my first real attempt at another language). I didn't actually realize how terrible English spelling is until studying a language with a mostly sane writing system (Russian Cyrillic).

My biggest observation is English basics are not that difficult (grammer rules are very easy) but the English writing system needs a total reform. Especially now that it is becoming the default international language (for better or worse).
If you read the Glassdoor reviews employees have had the same issues with her leadership for quite a long time now. Calling accountability that came too late "cancel culture" is dismissive of peoples real issues and just plain stupid.
All I want is a non-thunderbolt HiDPI display (5K @ 27" is the perfect display, IMO).

Why has HiDPI has stagnated outside of the apple ecosystem?
It's mostly a rhetorical question, because the answers that conspiracy communities come up to basic questions like that often involve insane and fantastical misdirections like pedophilia.
It was like a year ago.

If I remember correctly, there is some difference between voice call chat rooms and the instant messaging chat rooms. I don't remember which messed up whitespace. Or if I copied between chats etc.

Can't trust the text anyhow.
By far the best part is they didn't automatically cancel his subscription. What a horrible company, if you've banned my account that's fine but cancel the subscription and refund my money.

If y'all haven't looked at it yet, read up on the FCC's filing against Match. They knowingly prompt up tons of fake profiles, to get you engaged. Horrifically this has lead to romance scams being the number one source of fraud in the US. I had one particularly scary experience and after that I don't use any dating apps.

But it's worked out very well, I did have to move to a new city too, but I've been able to meet so many amazing girls in real life. I'm also in a much better place emotionally, if you're staring at your phone constantly waiting for box to message you, that's not good for your mind. Your mind. It makes everything 10 times of stressful, for fraction of the benefit.

When I actually meet someone, It was always someone who is in their mid-20s to 30s without a job. In real life, everyone I've gone out with has had a decent job, due to another scary experience I don't go out with people who aren't working.
I never said I defended it - I'm saying that it would make me a little uncomfortable.
Perhaps you meant this link: https://alternativeto.net/news/2021/12/duckduckgo-is-develop...
What if instead of all this headline seeking nonsense governments addressed the problem of hundreds of millions of vulnerable IoT devices?
Hi,

Just to clarify a few things. This search only works for cities in the US.
So, you don't really think there is an invisible, almighty, sentient being that rules everything in the known universe, with a varying over time definition of "known"? And what would be the "naive view"? Assuming that the Bible is stating that such a being exists?
Fair use in the case of satire is not retaining the original copyright, it is referencing the copyright. It is a legal split hair, but it stands in court.
After college I was doing some consulting and working on few very different projects. One of which was helping a company maintain an estimating program written by their founding engineer written in RMB. The software would prompt the user for various information and produce an estimate for labor, materials, equipment, and time.

It was pretty simple, well commented code, and for a while I was able to make small changes with a VM and HTBasic (http://www.techsoft.de/documents/htbasic.html). They weren't using any of the advanced features of the language. It was essentially a cli.

Eventually we ported it to TypeScript with a modern frontend. Now they can do estimates in the field and integrate it with loads of other software they adopted recently for invoicing, scheduling etc.
I've never done online dating, met my wife the old-fashioned way, but, it sounds like you're saying the network is making the choice of who should be matched/together, before they get the chance to decide for themselves?

If that's true, how anyone thinks that isn't totally fucked is beyond me. I mean, I'm seriously, deeply concerned by this notion more than the usual privacy, data etc that big tech concerns me with, they're literally shaping future generations according to their "algorithm", by deciding that one person shouldn't even be allowed to know another even exists, let alone have an opportunity to interact with them.
It has competitors, sure. But what the competitors don't have is user base and mind share. Maybe _de facto_ or _effective_ monopoly is more accurate?
It only works for the Us
The Dixie Chicks show that "cancel culture" isn't a new thing not at all.
Interesting, yes I can do that
You might be surprised.

I have been. For instance, I was served trepang in a Chinese restaurant once. I asked what it was -- I wasn't veggie yet in those days, I was still just a kid. They told me it was a fish.

No Google in those days, so I had to go to the library and look through books, which told me it was a sea-slug. It's not.

Python still has GIL and it's definitely more practical and widely adopted.
I think starting from maybe 5-6 years ago MS got into the mindset of "pushing early and let users be beta testers and do micro patches along the way". Power BI was CLEARLY only barely useable back in 2017 but gradually climbed out of the hole after 2019.

More and more I wish I could work in some company that doesn't use any MS tools. VSCode seems to be the exception here.

I can't play Borderlands 3 this morning (Epic).

Wonder if it's connected?
While I was mainly talking about MacOS (the desktop); Does iOS support AAA games?

I haven't been promoted any AAA games on iOS- fortnite is not a AAA game.

Edit: argue your point phantom downvoters.

Fortnite is not AAA; God Of War, Horizon Zero Dawn, Tom Clancy's the Division are AAA. Find a source that calls fortnite AAA. Find any source of a AAA studio working collaboratively with Apple and I will retract everything I said.
"Bryant's tweets drew an outpouring of support and sympathy from many in the tech community who expressed shock at the news of her removal from the nonprofit's leadership."

Doesn't sound like the "culture" is assuming she's guilty. I have no clue what the truth is, but it sounds like she's got a lot of supporters.
The password i used for CompuServe was my modem model number. Same reason.
Yup that's me... I fear this (old by now) story blew my "tacticalcoder" cover.
Knowing what causes lightning has no bearing on how one should treat one's neighbor. You can use science to make a rocket, but science has no comment on whether you should point it towards the Moon, or towards a neighboring country. Assuming we're "smarter" than our ancestors because we can make nuclear bombs and iphones is a pretty simplistic take, and completely ignores the traditional worldview that brings meaning to the Bible and to ancient stories. Looking back at traditional writing from a modern viewpoint and dismissing what you read because it doesn't fit your modern expectations is really robbing you of the opportunity to participate in what it meant to be truly human for most of human history.
My kid was born in early 2020, I paid even less and also wasn't charged for holding her. Not sure why you're being downvoted for providing actual facts.
Thanks I’ll add this to the feature list.
To force her out without making a definitive statement does not create good optics. It looks like some power-hungry board members wanted her out.

I don't doubt that she has critics from within the org, but to push her out without clearly stating why does not look good at all.
In the Marines, the presumption is that your time and efforts are being directed by someone whose prime concern is that you appear busy.

As a Sedentary Hacker Type, presumably you are the one directing your level of physical activity, and not missing an opportunity to move when the presumption is that you'll be static seems wise.

In both instances it seems the actual advice to follow is "do the opposite of what your boss would like to see," or "direct your own life as far as possible."
Now that everyone and their dog is on AWS, it is not just 'a website stops working', half the world, from telephones to security doors and Iot equipment, stops working?

I am not sure if the movement the cloud has reduced amount of failures, but it definitely has made these failures more catastrophic.

Our profession is busy makin the world less reliable and more fragile, we will have our reconning just like the shipping industry did.
Thanks!

Were you able to get screen to allow two different users to focus on two different panes in the same tab? As in, to see two different cursors and see each other typing in real time?
It’s coming from public pages in US cities.
Im not sure how a 50 line program is better than a 5 line program, but OK. Also it seems you had to write functions to get the same result.

My original comment, was that Andrew has a habit of shitting on other languages without proper references or examples. Nothing you can really say is going to change Andrews behavior, so maybe you should stop, unless you can justify Andrews comments.
>Even if this monitor is strictly for editing professionals, there are GoPros and Iphones that shoot @ 120 fps. So I still fail to see why this is not a more important selling point?

Probably because people use these 120fps to deliver slow motion in regular 24fps/30fps/etc timelines, so they have no need to watch/edit them as 120fps...
No. For example train signalling which controls whether a train can do onto a section of track operates in a fail safe manner, where if something goes wrong, the signal fails into a safe "closed" state rather than an unsafe "open" state. This means trains are incorrectly being told to stop even though technically the tracks are clear, rather than incorrectly being told to go even though there is another train ahead.

"fail-safe" doesn't mean "doesn't fail", it means that the failure mode chooses false negatives or false positives (depending on the context) to be on the safe side.
It seems employees of BGC have had issues with the Ms Bryant for years. Perhaps the board moved quickly without communicating much but I highly doubt She was completely unaware of the accusations against her and that the board might actually do something about it one day.
Of all the AWS outage, my team and I have dodged them all, except this one. 3 instances down and unavailable

> Due to this degradation your instance could already be unreachable

Don't spread it by bringing it up here, then.
I read this as a cautionary tale. Here we have a server that only through the grace of god is still up, and is likely owned up. If it isn't, it's because of how little is going on with it.

At its current use, it's likely not a major issue but imagine if someone saw this uptime and thought to take it as a statement of reliability and built a service on it. I for one, would want that disclosed because this is a disaster waiting to happen. I'd much rather someone disclose that they had a few servers each with no longer than 7 days of uptime because they'd been fully imaged and cycled in that time...
I mean, yes that’s an option, but it’s not something most people have regularly.
>the dinosaurs that survived K–Pg were not avian

Doesn't the term "avian dinosaur" in some sense mean "survived K-Pg"?
I'm still confused, is Ethan Hunt involved,
