In the case of Poland, traditional denominations left-right are meaningless. In economic terms, the current government is very leftist: it seeks the votes of the poorest citizens, increases the tax burden of those who earn above average and so on. In many aspects, they are very similar to past socialist governments before 1989. Paradoxically, the officially leftist party that actually ruled Poland for some time was quite progressive in economic terms.

So, regarding Poland, instead of using terms like 'left-right', it makes more sense to use something like the Nolan Chart. This would make the current government of Poland closer to the area of "authoritarian," that is, restricting both economic and personal freedom.

> Do you really want the English guy to forget 2/3 of his native language just to please others?

Communication is about exchanging information. If you're this English guy and you're blabbing something and no one understands you, would you be fine with being not understood (i.e. your information being lost)? If so, why even open your mouth?

GP's scenario is about people in Continental Europe. If the English knowledge is weak, an English person speaking in idioms (e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=awUqKKEKQh4 ) would confuse them quite easily.
Thanks, for some reason didn't come across those when I was setting this up a couple years ago. I'll give them a try.
> Russia is threatening back with a "strong response" that, for example, could come in a form of a cyber attack.

Really not need, they will just build their own. Believe Japan is already allowing them to use their banking clearing system. I'm sure they and China already have one. All this cyber attack stuff are really not worth while when country can just build their own SWIFT type of system.
>What are some ways to break out of this mode

I would guess the best answer here is to write down everything. Keep a journal. Write down events as soon after they happen as possible, write down your thoughts about the event, write down your emotions and connect them to the events that generate them.

I think a somewhat decent mental model here is to think of our brains as write-only memory. Every time you remember something, your brain rewrites the memory. You, on some level, are experiencing the event/thought/feeling again. When you think about what you felt during a past event, you are mostly feeling your current reaction to the memory, and not as much tapping into past feelings as you might think.

One broad example of this is what people call "type 2 fun." This describes events that may not produce positive emotions in the moment, usually some kind of hard physical tasks/achievements. But, looking back, these events produce positive emotions when remembering the event and the accomplishment.
Also, the economics of making a movie mean that the dialogue must be written for an audience with a very low average level of comprehension. I am not a language snob but sometimes it is so poor or obviously dumbed down that it spoils the realism of the film.
The linked document states: "There were reasonably available alternatives to the MPT that on their face appear to be less impairing and at least as effective in achieving the goal of improving student achievement in math. These include requiring a minimum number of hours of math instruction or a math course in B.Ed. programs, requiring an undergraduate math course as an admissions requirement for B.Ed. programs or waiting to see the effectsof the other parts of the Respondent’s four-year math strategy."
That's a primary concern, but I'm not a fan of the FOMO-driven, baseless, unregulated speculation that is all of crypto.
There is a program called needrestart which you can run after updates to see what needs restarting to load new copies of libraries etc. Generally speaking you only need to actually reboot for kernel updates.

When you update, you update everything - OS and apps all in one go unless you manually install stuff yourself outside of the package manager. Updates take from seconds to a few minutes unless you are running Gentoo in which case its from minutes to days or even weeks whilst your compiler crunches its way through vast seas of source code and you fix the various issues along the way 8)

You can automate the whole thing or not - up to you.

I don't use Firefox from hatred of Google or even fear of monoculture. I use Firefox because that's where the enthusiast community is.

What I would like to see is a diversity of enthusiast browsers.
The recent Linux Challenge [0] on Linus Tech Tips has helped raise Linux's profile for gaming. Linus Sebastian's enthusiasm for the upcoming Steam Deck has really raised the channel's appetite for Linux Content and as such is exposing it much more to its audience.

We also have Anthony Young to thank for laying the groundwork for Linux Content on LTT, and in turn we have Linux content on LTT to thank for a greater awareness, acceptance and adoption of Linux among gamers (helped, of course, by the advancements being done by Valve with Proton, Steam Play, the Steam Deck, SteamOS 3.0, Steam Input, DXVK and all the rest).

>there is also a method for sharing pirated media using google drive

Is anyone surprised by that? Every file sharing tool will invariable be used to share pirated and worse material until the people behind that tool show a willingness to stop that behavior. It is practically a universal law of the internet.
The generators should be powering up as soon as one of the 2 different sources goes down. It takes generators a few minutes to power up and get "warmed up". If they don't start this process until both mains sources are down, then oops, there's power outage.

I used to work next door to a "major" cable TV station's broadcast location. They had multiple generators on-site, and one of them was running 24/7 (they rotated which one was hot). A major power outage hit, and there was a thunderous roar as all of the generators fired up. The channel never went off the air.
> If you have 2 raid-5 mirrored raid 5 boxes in your room and all disks fail at the same time, you should complain. And that won't happen.

Here are some examples where that happened:

1. Drive manufacturer had a hardware issue affecting a certain production batch, causing failures pretty reliably after a certain number of power-on hours. A friend learned the hard way that his request to have mixed drives in his RAID array wasn’t followed.

2. AC issues showed a problem with airflow, causing one row to get enough warmer that faults were happening faster than the RAID rebuild time.

3. UPS took out a couple racks by cycling power off and on repeatedly until the hardware failed.

No, these aren’t common but they were very hard to recover from because even if some of the drives were usable you couldn’t trust them. One interesting dynamic of the public clouds are that you tend to have better bounds on the maximum outage duration, which is an interesting trade off compared to several incidents I’ve seen where the downtime stretched into weeks due to replacement delays or manual rebuild processes.

Your notion of success is a human one. Evolution doesn't care. When you reproduce before you die, you're successful.

Intelligence is in no way the best tool to guarantee reproduction, there's absolutely no inevitability to it. Grass reproduces just fine without intelligence. There's species practically unchanged for hundreds of millions of years.

There is no evolutionary plan or roadmap, it's random mutations.

The only full datacenter outage I've personally experienced was a power maintenance tech testing the transfer switch between systems where the power was 90 degrees out of phase. Big oof.
My last startup migrated from Verizon Terremark after the healthcare.gov fiasco several years ago. We also suffered from that massive outage and that was the final straw in migrating to AWS.

At AWS, we built a few layers of redundant infrastructure with mulit-AZ availability within a region and then global availability across multiple regions. All this was done at roughly half the cost of the traditional hosting, even when including the additional person-hours required to maintain it on our end.

Keeping our infra simple helped that work, and it's literally been years since an outage caused by any AWS issues, even though there have been several large AWS events.

First time I ever programmed was using Codecademy around 2013.

I was always an average student in school. Never had the motivation/curiosity to study since I felt it was all pointless. Never had any programming/computer classes in school.

I completed the python course that was available at the time that eventually guides you to build your own version of battleship with 2 players. It was an eye-opening experience for me.

I started to view all my math/chemistry/physics problems as “programming problems”, it really made learning fun for me. My grades changed drastically for the better with little extra effort. And more importantly Im now working as a SWE years later.

So thank you Codecademy :)
You seem to have a habit of getting off topic. This thread was never about Zig, it was about Andrew shitting on other languages without justification. I think you can agree that for the basic example I gave, the Go language is easier, more streamline, more comfortable to work with. It allows to get the task done quickly.

So for Andrew to shit on Go string handling with not a single example is rude, and frankly just wrong as I have demonstrated.

Europe is in a pretty tough economic zone. It has small fossil fuel reserves, its arable land is fairly compact, and its population density is huge. Compared to North America, which has huge fossil fuel reserves, gigantic farmland, and low density. It’s surprising that they are such an economic powerhouse, and not at all surprising that in the past they turned to colonialism and empires.

I honestly thought it was one of those legal trolls who sent the same email to everyone hoping to find someone to sue but I responded anyways explaining how statically generated sites worked and that I’m willing to provide the information, being that the information is that I have none…

The last paragraph in particular made it sound like a veiled legal threat (or that they’re hinting that they’re willing to go down that road). I felt that I had to respond just to establish some record.
RDS has this mostly solved. They silently mirror the master into another AZ. If the primary fails the internal routing redirects to the clone.
I use FF every day and it works really well for my purposes. I do all of my daily desktop browsing in it and only open Chrome if I need to access an internal corporate web site on my work laptop.

My point is if your redundancy is better than AWS then why pay for them ? If it not they why invest in your own?.

You can argue that you protect against different threats than AWS does . So far I have not seen a meaningful argument of threats a on Prem protects differently than the cloud that you need both.

Say for example your solution is to put all your data backups on the moon then it makes sense to do both, AWS does not protect against threat to planet wide issues.

However if you are both protecting against exact same risks having just provider redundancy only protects against events like AWS goes down for days /months or goes bankrupt.

All business decisions have some risk , provider redundancy does not seem a risk to mitigate for the cost it would mean for most businesses I have seen.

Even Amazon.com or Google apps host on their own cloud and not use multi cloud after all, their regular businesses are much bigger than their cloud biz , they would still risk those to stick to their cloud/services only.
It could be the app, or it could be that women can easily smell the scent of desperation, entitlement, and resentment wafting off of you.

Guess I was lucky, we ran a lot of these over the decades when things were far more unreliable than now and never experienced anything like that. Manufacturing issues, sure, but we always had everything we bought run on stress for 48 hours and see if that killed it, if it didn't, it didn't usually break anymore (I have many of the machines from mid to end 2000s still and they don't have diskfailures now while they ran for many years).

> I think it isn't a huge deal if an English or French or Social Studies teacher isn't great in math

I think it is a big deal if any teacher isn't great in math, aside from perhaps PE instructors. Considering how much our whole society is supported by math nowadays and how much the average person sucks at math, perhaps teachers who suck at math are not very good role models for children?
I got permabanned when I tried logging in from my phone with oss android installed. In Tinder's defense I imagine my phone's system might have looked similar to that of spammers leading to a false-positive, so I don't mind the ban itself.

What I do mind was that their official stance is that they don't reverse bans for any reason. Creating a new account is against their terms of service, so
in theory I am locked out of one of the primary ways my generation finds partners.

In the country I live, the competitors don't have user bases nearly large enough to compete so Tinder is effectively a monopoly. With Tinder's enormous market-power comes great responsibility, and they have in my eyes failed to live up to it.

It is usually some unexpected secondary service that wasn’t known to be in the critical path. Or a hidden dependency on an aws service that didn’t fail over gracefully. I look forward to reading the post mortem.
Sure but the document explains the rationale as follows:
