I don't think people in the USA ever cared about Geography. Being able to name a couple of cities in every state is useless as is know state capitols other than your own. You could always read up (in a library or internet) about a place if you were going to visit there or looking for a new place to check out on vacation. It really isn't that valuable as far as information goes. I would rather know more about France or Russia as I'm probably more likely to visit there on vacation than I would be to go to Minnesota.
The thing is, not too much can be expected to break from a 64 bit time_t. Only stuff that directly shoves time_t's over the network or to disk -- a bad practice -- will.

Note anything that builds on x86-64 or other 64 bit architectures has already figured out how to tolerate 64 bit time_t's.

The major reason it's not safe to build with a 64 bit time_t is because you don't know whether other libraries are. If the C library cuts over, when people/distributions move to the new library version, they know that's not a concern.

Defaults change in tooling all the time, requiring code changes for distributions bundling newer tooling/libraries. This one would require less change than most.

Of course, it's possible to survive a 64 bit time_t and still not be 2038-safe. But at least you can be correct if you have a C library and other libraries that will tolerate 64 bit time_t's.

> Seems clear to me he's upset the other driver's liability insurance isn't covering the accident in a case where law enforcement and others see clear liability for that other driver,

So? Law enforcement officer's testimony isn't a court judgement. You can't seriously expect anyone to pay you if all you have is some testimony[1] that they owe you money.

Testimony is worthless until it is admitted into evidence in court. Keep that in mind and you expectations will be in line with the harsh realities, and then you won't be confused and disappointed about the outcomes.

[1] Testimony, even from a LEO, isn't a fact. During a matter in court, testimony that concludes that one party is at fault may be disputed by testimony that concludes that the other party (or no one at all) was at fault. In auto accidents it is not unusual for a court to decide that the liability is shared between the parties (50/50, 70/30, etc) - "Sure, the other guy swerved into you, and he really should have checked his blind-spot before performing the lane-change, but should you have really been overtaking in the slow lane? He should have checked his blind-spot, but you should have not accelerated into his blind spot in the first place."

I always change my home folders to a lowercase shorthened version and modify ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs. Of course, when you do an accidental rm -rf you're at disk to erase ~/work, but that's what regular backups are for. Expanding capitalisation to the whole filesystem hierarchy is a no go for me, it would only waste my time and further degrade my productivity. I also never liked Pascal, Java and C# specifically because of the weird capitalisation conventions which in my view makes the code look messy. PowerShell? Just call the exorcist.

I think I read somewhere that there’s a rule for abbreviations that if they’re “pronounceable” you shouldn’t use all caps. For example, you write IBM because you articulate the letters, it’s not “Ibbem”. Conversely you don’t say the letters in Nasa, but you do in NSA and so forth.

The amount of racism is pretty depressing in the Midwest.

-Have had coworkers openly talk about how the company hires too many Indians and it's a "bad thing".

-People saying how muslims are ruining and dirtying up their suburban neighborhoods

-Skinheads verbally yell obscenities and spit at me and my minority coworkers.

-Sprinkle in the barrier to entry for tech exec/leadership positions is not diverse and have seen first hand how douchey the hiring process is..

It's reaffirming to hear so many other people have similar sentiments.

>Or are you being bigoted

Maybe you should re-evaluate your outlook because you sound like you're part of the problem that makes the Midwest not appealing to minorities.

Until it suddenly isn't in either of these paths, maybe because its required to run in some quirky setup.

Hrdcoded paths for things a program doesn't bring with itself, should be avoided in general. There is a reason $PATH exists and is easily extended. It is the users/admins responsibility to make sure envvars are set correctly, and it's the programs responsibility to give a useful error message when it cannot locate the programs it expects in $PATH
If I understand it correctly glibc is on a mix of 2 and 3, 3 on 64-bit systems and 2 on 32-bit systems.

Though I am not certain 64-bit supports 32-bit time so it may be on 4 there already

I am basing this of these two sites and a quick look at the source code though there may be better documentation on it

> The appropriate course is to sue the other driver directly and ignore the insurance company. A person cannot ignore a court summons, not even in Texas.

As I read it, the teller of this story was unwilling to go to court, not even small-claims. If the justice system is not brought into the picture you can't seriously expect anyone to take claims of "you owe me money" seriously.
And there is nothing stopping businesses from running their websites from IP addresses, and yet ICANN developed rules that allow them to take away domain names and give them to businesses.

It is not at all unlike Twitter taking away the handle @metaverse from a user and giving it to Facebook, it was only the result of user backlash/public support Twitter reversed its decision.
You sound like me. I hate cold weather, I hate snowy and icy roads and being cooped up inside because it's -10 outside. I hate the snow that never melts and the gray skies. Give me the American southwest any day over that.
The idea behind redo, in contrast, is that "dependency resolution" is not a separate step. The dependencies can be generated at the same time as the compilation, by the compilation in a perfect world; through some post-processing in a less than perfect one.

Unfortunately, current C and C++ compilers do not emit all of the information that they possess internally, only less than half of it (the positive information about files found, not the larger amount of negative information about non-existent files that were searched and would change the build if they were to exist).

Same in the world of lock picking.

I can smash your door in, or simply break a window. The difference is you’ll definitely know I did it. But unless you in the routine of checking your lock pins for scratchmarks, you probably wouldn’t know if someone picked the locks.
So the fix is to list all libraries in popular distros that break with time_t being 64 bits, file issues for all of them, and track progress somehow. Messing with the defaults is only useful if the ensuing breakage is promptly fixed.
You would be right if it wasn't a well-known fact that people hired in 2021 on the same position you were hired on in 2019 may well have a 30-50% higher salary than you today, since companies almost always have an idiotic hard cap on yearly raises, but no similar cap on new hire offers.

So, out of accounting spite, many companies are opting for churn instead of stability by simple raise vs new hire policy, making it worse for everyone.
I bet you don't live in a large city though? This sounds like small town nickname games. Source: I grew up in a small town where everyone had to have a nickname.
I live in an eastern German city with a university with ca. 24.000 students. The prices have doubled within 10y and weren't affordable for any two incomes below the 95th quantile.
The prices in _every_ major city have increased dramatically.

The only affordable houses are run down, old ones, half an hour away from public transportation -- barely anybody wants to live there, because of high rate of right wings (eastern Germany), or lack of infrastructure (e.g. medical care). These broken minor towns and cities might decrease the average prices -- failure of the averages!

Regarding prices, from my POV the article is made-up nonsense.

This really depends on the projects / companies people are involved with as well. Especially on the front-end, it is very common to take a project from start to post-launch support in a year, especially in a "non-tech" company.

Staying after that in a lot of these cases mean a lack of interesting projects, and also end up with stagnation. My experience may be a bit affected by freelancing though :)

Oh yeah I'm talking about improving. Minor tweaks not uprooting the entire thing. I'm also talking about doing so as a reaction to declining population not preemptively. We don't know exactly what the future will look like best to address the needs when they arise. But the change in population growth is going to have a major impact on our world economic system.

I'm a big fan of free markets and think our current iteration is one of the best ever, despite it's problems.
> So the fix is to list all libraries in popular distros that break with time_t being 64 bits

All libraries in popular distros build on x86-64, which in turn means they use a 64 bit time_t there.

It's time for 32 bit architectures to join 64 bit architectures in having a 64 bit time_t.

Anything that ships today in distributions will ship in embedded systems for 5+ years. And then a lot of those embedded systems (too many) will last a long time. 2026 is getting pretty uncomfortably close to 2038.
> And yes, making victims whole is the purpose of mandating liability coverage for drivers.

Yes, agreed, but you aren't a victim until a court issues a judgement that you are, hence the other parties insurance has no reason nor obligation to make you whole.

A dispute is just a dispute until a court rules on it. Statements made by LEOs and witnesses are only examined when it is presented before a court. If you don't present your argument before a court, you are not automatically in the right.

>but when I read the book a few years back, I was skeptical that any mechanism to create bullshit jobs could arise from a system as inherently Darwinian as capitalism.

Well, here's the problem: Darwinian doesn't mean evolution towards something specific (i.e. more efficiency).

In fact, regression (in certain skills, etc.) is just as likely (like cockroaches, not humans, being the fittest in a certain environment).

So, Darwinian, broadly and metaphorically speaking (like the author) just means more fitness for survival.

And this is totally compatible with BS jobs, when it comes to the survival of the overal system.

One specific attribute of capitalism today is also that it's always somebody else's money, what with public companies, and golden parachutes, and bailouts, and such - and the rise of pharaonic middle management.

If you think about it, what is the distribution of parents and children? It's the same with population in general. So all types of people become parents. Same for children, and you get n^2 types of relationships.
Most companies want highest effort for lowest salary, most employees seek highest salary for acceptable effort. This is just the logic of the market, and affects every entity, regardless how ethical they otherwise are. Not following this you are easily outcompeted on both ends.

There are some leveraging efforts, but I see them as vainty projects, often enabled by the fact the company/employee is already successful. As long as it remains, capitalism dictates some basic rules - it does not make every participant automatically a greedy bastard.
I don't think "solutioning" is a real verb though, it would have been clearer and easier to read if "inventing potential solutions" was used.

They don't need to report anything false. It suffices to fail to report what is relevant and true.

To their credit, they did report UN investigator Hans Blix's well-supported conclusion that there were no WMDs. On page 18.

The NYT's preference for GWB in both elections was always front and center, and shameless. That the right wing imagined NYT was against them tells a lot about them.
Both this comment and its parent have the basic chronology backwards, specifically in regard to Ukraine. Whose moves to join NATO began in 2008 -- a full six years before the annexation of Crimea.

Also, especially since the Kosovo intervention it seems moot to refer to NATO as a "defensive alliance". It is an instrument through which its leading partners project power throughout the region, and the Russians know that.
Something to keep in mind though:

The author makes the point that bullshit jobs shouldn't exist in capitalist systems, since they are inherently Darwinian.

There is a misconception that "Darwinian" is the same as "efficient."

Darwinian simply means "what can be sustained will be sustained until they can't be sustained anymore."

Which is exactly why layoffs happen in economic downturns -- those bullshit jobs just can't be sustained anymore.
Brazillian businessman built a giant perpetual engine
Interesting, how do I search for this?
ICANN has an entire dispute resolution set up for businesses to use to take away domain names from users.

Local laws do not apply, there is no independent or impartial court, it is entirely centralized decision making by ICANN if they will take away your domain name and give it to someone else. It is exactly the same as when Twitter recently took away @metaverse handle from a active user and gave it to Facebook. At least in the case of Twitter when faced With user backlash and public support they reversed their decision and took @metaverse back from Facebook and returned it to the user. In practice ICANN is even more centralized than Twitter, because ICANN isn’t accountable to its users.

It’s clear you don’t know how ICANN words, and are entirely out of your depth wrt the definition of de/centralized. You likely also have a conflict of interest.

That is what apple initially did.

And they dropped the approach because few to none were going to rewrite existing code to add support for non-standard extensions to fix 40 years out issues. Instead they moved to 64b time_t in 10.7 I think?

And it’s not a new call, dozens of functions touch time_t, plus a few syscalls.
My question was specifically about burning of deadwood for forest management, which apparently is available in huge quantities that need to be disposed of, but perhaps not consistently enough to e.g. use it to heat a city hall or gymnasium.
> Pick any programming language. Now, remove access to I/O (except standard input and output), networking, time, random number generators, threads, OS syscalls, etc.

The devil is in the details, and if you miss even one case then the problems are just as bad as if you hadn't bothered at all. For example, comparing two URLs in Java is not deterministic. For another example, iterating through a set in Python will give you the elements in a different order on 32- versus 64-bit systems.

In practice it's just not practical to retrofit deterministic behaviour onto a language that was not designed for it. Even your "trivial example" isn't; Brainfuck does not standardize overflow behaviour and so the same program may behave differently on different systems.
> If you happen to ship any GPL'd code at any point with your product, must it necessarily always follow that you should be forced to release the source to everything else you happened to ship along with it?

The only thing that gives you any right to ship the code is the license, and you must always comply with the terms of the license, so.. yes?

But here's the thing. GPL doesn't infect things that merely ship "along with it". For your entire software to be covered by GPL it must be a derivative work.

Right, I agree. I just think all that is encapsulated by the prohibition on copying. The purpose of IP law was always to protect the owners right to choose when, and in what manner, that IP may be used/redistributed. E.g. an owner has the right to say "you may only copy my IP if you watch these ads first".

But Web3/Crypto/NFT is so much more than the financial incentives. It's much more about culture, belonging, tribalism (the good version) and the endless opportunity space of what I would call a resource. Digital assets that behave as if they are physical.
