> Cyberpunk is a subgenre of science fiction in a dystopian futuristic setting that tends to focus on a "combination of lowlife and high tech"

Which is why I like Cyberpunk... though living in it is something else

But there is standard trick for that: you give them level salary and sign-up bonus spread over 2-3 years.
"Recycled black vegan leather" would be a perfect band name. Also a $1600 computer and Gen-Z, choose one.

It's a great notebook, nothing is remotely sustainable about it. Branding it as such however will differentiate this product, so good job on that. The so called eco-conscious business users don't usually know better.
Oh for sure. But that still leaves the peoples who gave the world the crop (after centuries of selective breeding), living in poverty.

Meanwhile, if one of them tries to sell a Mickey Mouse t-shirt they'd get hanged before noon by the US govt doing the bidding of a US megacorp.
Actually, for some part of the population the "shittyness" could be there already, depending on its definition.
I will explain to you again, I have researched this topic deeply and for a long time. "will get free healthcare too". In order to get healthcare, someone provides it.

1. if a doctor spends time to provide free healthcare because a regime says they must, they are exploited. This is one option.
2. if a doctor does it and is paid, someone has to pay that bill for the doctor. If the doctor is free for you, someone else is paying.
3. you can pay yourself.

Those are essentially the three options. None of those are free. In 1. the doctor pays, in 2. a third person pays and in 3. you pay directly. No matter how hard you try, in every option you come up with someone will pay the bill. With time or with money or with any other exchange or will be pointed with a gun to do it.
You are very right. I choose to pursue other mysteries in my time here on Earth, but it would be so exciting getting to know everything there is to know about the mycorrhiza. Even just reading the literature to learn what others already know would take a long time. Sometimes I feel life is too short.

Ps: Excelent work on the fjords, they turned out really pretty.

Yes, you do need something more powerful than Elon Musk: you need the power of collective action! Without workers, the value of Tesla is comparatively nothing to what it is valued at now. Without workers, Elon Musk goes from the richest man in the world, to just a guy who owns some empty buildings and machines that don't do anything. Elon's true power is his workforce, not his money.

It's true that democracies are hard to set up and maintain. We are learning that here in America right now. It seems like authoritarianism is the natural order of governments, so maybe left/authoritarianism is like a local minima: it's easy to fall into that well, hard to get out of it, but there are much better things out there if you can avoid it.
people aren't going to stop clearing trees because of this law, that's complete nonsense... trees need to be felled all the time for a myriad of reasons, the state isn't just going to say "welp, too bad... that tree is permanently on your house now"

No, they're not going to "take away", but they will prevent you from purchasing.

There are arguably practical alternatives for leaf blowers and some uses of small gasoline motors, but replacing generators seems much more expensive (solar + batteries), impractical (solar won't help you when it's dark for long periods of time), or impossible (in the case of portable generators).
Appreciate you taking the time to post this. I tend to worry about my own health (and mortality) a lot, and find this bit of information to be quite useful. As someone who has health anxiety, it can be tough to ascertain what is a legitimate concern and what is overblown.
I'd also note that the unregulated casinos can be (but aren't always) verifiable in how they function, so if you want high assurance that the odds and such are as stated, you can (in some cases) obtain such assurance, despite the lack of regulation.

(but, you'd have to be careful to check the claims and such, and, if you can't or don't have time to check the software yourself, you might have to trust a 3rd party evaluating the system, and possibly there wouldn't be any such organization that you would trust who has done such a check.)
I wanted to post in this thread saying all of these above things but you put everything I was feeling into words perfectly.

I think this is the most accurate and actionable advice in the thread.
Just something to share about this as someone who had a recent almost-rabies encounter. TLDR is that rabies shots cost like 4K/ea. My wife and I woke up in the middle of the night with a bat flying around our room (thanks to our cat jumping on the bed). We caught the bat and released it and basically thought nothing of it.

A few days later my wife was talking to friend and she mentioned that we had a possible rabies encounter — bat bites are incredibly small and if you are sleeping its very possible you wouldn't have even felt the bite. Naturally we were shocked and searched our bodies and found nothing, but just to be certain we called our local department of health and found that, yes, this is a valid rabies exposure event and we were eligible for rabies care. (For future reference, you're supposed to basically catch and kill/freeze the animal and send it to animal control for rabies testing to see if you actually had an exposure. We were woken up at 4am so didn't really think to look up rabies protocol at the time)

Cue USA Healthcare insanity. So we first find out after calling the hospital that rabies vaccines are only administered in the ER, meaning we can't just go to any urgent care center and get a shot. Not only this, but the rabies vaccine is a series of 4 shots, each about a week apart. And "because USA", the system has no way of remembering that we're in for a planned series of shots, meaning we have to be re-ingested into the ER every time we enter (keeping in mind that a global pandemic is still going on). So now we're going to the ER for about ~3 hours every few weeks, of which on _literally every visit_ they ask us the exact same series of boilerplate questions about basic health info. 99% of our time is filling out paperwork, the shot itself takes seconds.

We started to wonder if it was really worth it, but its worth remembering rabies is basically 100% fatal. So it was basically risking sure death via rabies or being subjected to an ER wing during a global pandemic multiple times a month. We went with "get the shots".

But it gets worse. So after everything is done, we get a hospital bill. As it turns out, EACH RABIES SHOT IS $4,000! EACH SHOT! This means that between my wife and I, we accrued $32,000 in medical bills for simply trying to not subject ourselves to absolute death. I find this totally insane. On top of the rabies bills we were also charged for ER charges, which apparently are weird because the ER doctors bill separately from the ER itself, and those costs also ran into the thousands. Luckily we had health insurance, and our county covered some of the costs as well.

The whole structure of this is outrageous. Yes, for profit healthcare is bad, but this is on another level. Just imagining someone less fortunate than us that gets into this situation. You're staring down $32,000+ in medical bills, or death. Which do you choose? The whole experience left such a terrible taste in my mouth that I hate the USA even more for even requiring this calculus in the first place.

1. Does that make it ok? "Oh just drive x hours west and you can buy one there." So you can still buy a generator, unless you're poor or do shift work.

2. How does forcing someone to drive their car several hours one way to buy something legal in 49 states and the majority of the world help curb emissions?

Having spent more time working in toxic environments than non-toxic ones I really appreciate this perspective on managing the difficult decision to exit.

As many commenters have pointed out: When there are no professional relationships you want to preserve for the years (decades!) to come the matter is easily handled with a two week notice and a swift departure before the morning light.

However, when you have been fortunate enough to have worked with great colleagues it is a lot harder to exit the building without damaging your relationship with them.
I drive a 2021 Toyota. When you go to the Clock setup it has an interesting feature - the first setting is for daylight saving. Turn it on, the clock goes an hour ahead, turn it off and it goes an hour back. No more fumbling with the clock twice a year, and no need to have the year. And no worrying about Congress making your clock obsolete.
I got two sentences in and my eyes glazed over...

You might as well save your breath at this point, you'll notice everything I've said was a very simple point, and every reply you've had was a roundabout treatise trying to pivot away from <very simple point>.

That's because what you're doing is defending an indefensible position.

If you had just said it was a joke it would have been better for everyone involved... what a way to live life if this is really what you're about.

Depends on expected annual run time. Batteries paired with your solar receive a 26% federal tax credit (if primarily charged from rooftop solar [1]), and any state and utility incentives [2]. They can charge from the grid if not full before a volatility event is expected to occur (Tesla's term for this is "storm watch mode" for Powerwalls [3]), and if you have solar, they’ll replenish each day (is it dark for long periods in California?) depending on rooftop system size.

It's very much not a silver bullet, but if you've already installed solar, or plan to install solar, the battery is a natural fit in California considering time of use metering, upcoming net metering changes, power grid quality, lack of fuel costs, and it can be financed as part of the solar or your mortgage.

More specifically it is a templates search engine where it can replace some parts, like the name of persons etc.

You know all those old "Hello { PERSON_1 }, have you heard about {PERSON_2} in {CITY_1}?", that is most how to think about it, it searches for a template and then applies it with the arguments it fetched from your string.
$3B is far less than the amount of USD used for purchasing goods and services each day.
Those shots are not cheap either. We found a bat had been in our bedroom at night when we visited my in laws and I saw it fly over us several times.

They didn’t catch it so we didn’t know if the bat had rabies. We hadn’t been bitten, but you can get the virus dropped in your eyes or nose and it is basically 100% fatal.

With those odds, you go through the 3 shot protocol. It was basically $1k per shot for each of us. We have solid insurance but they were not covered because they are so rare.
+1 for gitea. I've messed with codeberg, sourcehut, gitlab, even fossil (non git version control system, fantastic software but unfortunately everyone uses git) and I've got to say gitea is where it's at. It's the right combination of light and feature dense, could be lighter IMO but it's great.

They're not providers, although gitlab and sourcehut do offer code hosting services, and I'm sure some people are offering paid access to services they host with some of this software.

That's true of traditional models as well. The difference is that when there's a screw up it might be a little easier to determine the cause. That is certain useful, but if there are, on average, fewer screw ups with DL then the net benefit would seem to favor DL.

What I'd really like is to have direct access to a working ART model and dataset for it... I wasn't able to find one after a bit if searching though. (I am however on mobile at the moment which makes that a bit more cumbersome)
Makes me realize how much I hate Jira. GitHub now covers a lot of Jira's functionality, Confluence to an extent also.
I guess the immediate question I’d have in response to that hypothesis is: if seeking a mate is what’s leading people to grind, why doesn’t that behavior taper off after marriage?
This happened to my personal trainer recently.

He ignored it for way too long, and it damaged his lungs and his heart badly enough that he now needs a heart transplant, and his lungs will never even remotely perform at a decent level anymore.

Dude is like 45. Had to retire on unemployment. Will probably not live to see 47. Really tragic.

I am glad you caught this!
Edible foraged mushroom markets are surprisingly opaque. The foragers are unlikely to give anything more than a vague notion of where they find their stuff in my experience.

It wouldn’t surprise me at all to learn that there are people that have figured out how to increase yields in the wild or simulate correct growing conditions
They are mushrooms after all :)
Might be surprising to some, but the fediverse has good uptaking in France, and the name sounds good to French people I know :-)
Jira offers them much more in the way of process management, reporting, and integrations with the likes of ZenDesk for its complexity. They seem to think of GitHub as just for the coders and aren't comfortable there.

Folks, as you know the planet is getting warmer. Eventually we will need to shift to alternative means of providing backup electricity, means that don't have a huge negative externality for everyone else. Libertarian policies aren't going to make that happen.
Of course it narrows down specificity. My point is that in today's society, it seems mostly useless to me. Most of the time I don't need to narrow it down this way at all. This may have been different in a world where people were segregated by sex so intensively that half of the population didn't even have the right to vote, but today I fail to see the usefulness of it.
Nice work. You don’t take a gamble when the odds are 100%, especially for your kids. Booking the shots was the right call.

My father in law knew better and still let the bat escape. Cost us $10k in shots for 3 of us.
I disagree. See this car as an example: http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-RfHR31OQTxk/TidBUkUuVkI/AAAAAAAABT...
Well, there's sepia search for Peertube, possibly something like that could be built into a forge server software one day. I don't believe it is in the ForgeFed spec though and IMO it doesn't belong there.

Do you have family that struggles financially, or lacks the education and training for anything more than Walmart or if really lucky a mechanic?

The world you live in is nothing like the people this law was designed for, where labor exploitation is rampant and worker desperation so high that you don't have the luxury to wait for new opportunities because you can't feed your family or risk being evicted.
First they came for your gas cans. Now they are coming for your generators. I will say, gas powered leaf blowers and edgers are so polluting it's horrible. Electric battery powered is so much better but I feel for the landscape people. That is such a huge burden for them. You need to have so many batteries and chargers to make it a full day.
When men talk about courting a woman. It just sounds like they are either hunting an animal or performing a job. Seriously, if she (or he) likes you, then it just clicks. Talk of putting effort into it removes the humanity of the other person and also gives creepy people the perspective that someone "owes" them romance because they put the hours into it.

It's just gross and misogynistic behavior.
Do these requirements apply to backup generators (usually portable diesel devices) for ensuring business continuity in case of power-failure? That is a use case that has a strong business need for ensuring IT functionality, a strong social need for ensuring key services (e.g. medical facilities) work after/during various natural disasters, and has a minor environmental impact, since those generators are run only rarely.

It would be ridiculous if businesses wanting to ensure backup power in 2028 would have to resort to "used generators, and new generators bought directly from other states" as the article suggests.
Right, this person assumes you can just turn down a job. No, folks don't want to starve unfortunately.
You're correct that the real customer for a "new" car is the person who will drive it/own it for max 3 years. When I worked at a dealership it was funny how the used car lot managers would just auction a car that was slightly older than 3 years or just had more miles than what an average person drives in a year for the age of the vehicle. I've seen how cars my dad used to sale when he started selling cars vs the cars he was selling when I was working with him had gone down in terms of long term quality. These infotainment things are just another nail in the coffin for cars that would otherwise be useable. I feel at some future time this pain point of automobiles will be become more universal in nature and hopefully give a second option.
The California laws only direct CARB to make regulations. CARB has to find that replacements are feasible before regulating sales. It's in the laws.
This is actually pretty good overview of Sinclair Lewis. That said, it would be better for everybody if the New York Times refrained from pretending it knows what Middle America was or is.

I'll add here that there's a ton of nuance to "pushing back on changing requirements." My rule of thumb is this: program managers should understand the expected and worst-case consequences (including baseline time, switching costs, stepping on other team members' toes, etc.) of any proposals to expand scope, and as an individual contributor it is vitally important to be vocal to ensure they understand the full dynamics.

But if and once they do understand and acknowledge the consequences, and still say a scope increase is justified, it's highly highly likely that they have more business context than you. Document the decision, of course, but fundamentally trust your team.
Whether it is human nature, or learned behavior, the typical human is unable to fill their time with productive use over a longer period of time unless purpose is imposed on them. Hence "work". The concept in a more general term is even mentioned in religious text so there must be a basis....
You can have the same file mmap()ed at the same address in two separate processes, so putting pointers in it is a valid thing to do. In most languages doing dynamic allocation in shared memory is a world of pain, but maybe the STL allocator approach makes it a reasonable thing to do in C++? Sharing a complex linked data structure between different threads is a somewhat tricky thing to do in any case, though in some cases it may be the only reasonable solution. In many cases something like FlatBuffers may be a better solution.

I'm not sure what you mean by "sharing one time only" or "sharing between processes one-to-one"; can you elaborate?

It isn't really true that select() can only monitor file descriptor numbers less than FD_SETSIZE; you just have to allocate the bitmaps differently instead of using the fd_set type. Libevent does this, for example.

io_uring isn't really only for I/O; you can use it for madvise(), poll(), and timers as well. Normally I'd be comfortable with saying that's "I/O" but in this context poll() and timers are the things you're implicitly opposing to "I/O".

Yes, kqueue and iocp are not available on Linux. But io_uring and epoll aren't available on other operating systems, so I thought it was worthwhile mentioning the corresponding facilities there.

Why do you say you need multithreading to truly benefit from epoll? If you have an I/O-bound process that has a lot of file descriptors open, running in an event loop, epoll is a faster alternative to select() (or, as you say, poll()), isn't it?

This thing about nonsequential socket file descriptors is news to me; I hadn't heard anything about it, though I admit I haven't been paying attention. Where can I find out more?
