We're running into terminology territory which is rarely productive, but let's go with it. There are multiple reasonable takes on this so I'm not looking for a fight, but for me I'd classify the Model 100 as a mobile devices. It's a bit on the large side for that classification, but no more so than a modern tablet except for the thickness, and you could conceivably us it standing up.

For me a portable computer is one that needs a table or lap to use (can't reasonably be used standing up) and replicates the capabilities of a desktop computer in a more compact form. The T1100 is beaten out on that definition by the Osbourne, though arguably that's in it's own 'luggable' category. I think the T1100 is almost certainly the first computer we could call a laptop though.

That CPU is generationally accurate though. It would be possible to have that much ram and that CPU when the system was brand new.

This has happened to me a few times too, I have to complete a word 3 times before it actually marks it as correct. I almost wondered if it was intentional because it happened so often.

This is very well done, but it incorrectly failed validation of my DKIM signature.

Msbuild (as used in Visual Studio and dotnet core) has an amazing implementation of this: https://msbuildlog.com/

Not only can you see what was rebuilt and why, you can see all the input into the rules at all the stages of the build, conveniently hyperlinked into the master rule files provided in the SDK.
There are plenty of foreign hosts, the problem is that nobody knows about them. Gitee is a pretty big Chinese Github alternative, for example. Parts of the Russian software scene seems to prefer forums to dump software and source code.

You won't find these repositories looking for them, because they're often in their native language. Many forum posts are also locked behind registration. I've used Google Translate a bunch of times to get Russian software working, but only after someone linked it to me.
I don't think so, because a lot of the magic is in the software itself, not the camera. There's an excellent article about what these software do to the image to make it look better, or make it seem like having properties it doesn't have, with post-processing.

I reckon if they put their mind to it they could cause enough pollution to make cellphones unusable, maybe even open-air wifi. They're smart, I'm sure they have the technology, they could make the whole EM spectrum so dirty the whole sky would glow.

The Fastest Route Out of the ‘Great Microchip Shortage’ – An Outlook on 2022
Julia's compiler is made to be extendable. GPUCompiler.jl which adds the .ptx compilation output for example is a package (https://github.com/JuliaGPU/GPUCompiler.jl). The package manager of Julia itself... is an external package (https://github.com/JuliaLang/Pkg.jl). The built in SuiteSparse usage? That's a package too (https://github.com/JuliaLang/SuiteSparse.jl). It's fairly arbitrary what is "external" and "internal" in a language that allows that kind of extendability. Literally the only thing that makes these packages a standard library is that they are built into and shipped with the standard system image. Do you want to make your own distribution of Julia that changes what the "internal" packages are? Here's a tutorial that shows how to add plotting to the system image (https://julialang.github.io/PackageCompiler.jl/dev/examples/...). You could setup a binary server for that and now the first time to plot is 0.4 seconds.

Julia's arrays system is built so that most arrays that are used are not the simple Base.Array. Instead Julia has an AbstractArray interface definition (https://docs.julialang.org/en/v1/manual/interfaces/#man-inte...) which the Base.Array conforms to, and many effectively standard library packages like StaticArrays.jl, OffsetArrays.jl, etc. conform to, and thus they can be used in any other Julia package, like the differential equation solvers, solving nonlinear systems, optimization libraries, etc. There is a higher chance that packages depend on these packages then that they do not. They are only not part of the Julia distribution because the core idea is to move everything possible out to packages. There's not only a plan to make SuiteSparse and sparse matrix support be a package in 2.0, but also ideas about making the rest of linear algebra and arrays themselves into packages where Julia just defines memory buffer intrinsic (with likely the Arrays.jl package still shipped with the default image). At that point, are arrays not built into the language? I can understand using such a narrow definition for systems like Fortran or C where the standard library is essentially a fixed concept, but that just does not make sense with Julia. It's inherently fuzzy.
OrgPad has been #5 Product of the Day on ProductHunt on 24th of December 2021. It was very much unexpected, we didn't really invest much into the launch at PH.

It brought us some nice traffic and a handful of new subscriptions, when we expected a very calm day considering OrgPad is still used more to create stuff than consume and it was Christmas Eve.
We asked the community to give us up-votes and many have certainly done so, but I think most of the up-votes came organically.

OrgPad is a SaaS tool we develop for about 3 years, where you organize ideas and materials in a graph/ network manner. OrgPad is used for anything from IT planing (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jvw2uRQ64xE) over teaching/ presenting (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-sk75P8BJDM) to documenting long stays/ sightseeing in foreign countries such as Japan: https://www.orgpad.com/o/Cq4wzd04hJZ6JFZSCWGKU6 and much more. You can try it out for free. In short, it is a real tool that works, has some individual and institutional paying customers and has thousands of users overall.

I should add, that my colleague Kamila said, PH support was quite helpful.
Ever watched Tom and Jerry?
The "insatiable desire" for low skilled workers is coming from corporate interests to keep wages low and workers unorganized. We now have a precarious underclass working with no job security and little integration in society, right here in Germany where we had extremely strong worker rights just a few decades ago. Many regular jobs that used to be steady and good to raise a family with are now low paid and temporary. Super convenient and "win-win" for the 'haves' so we look away, as we want a human on a bike to bring us our burrito. If you look closer you see the guy getting 13€ for cleaning the nasty meat factory floors, laid off periodically to skirt labour laws.

This also means that poorer countries in the EU can't be competitive through price as we have our own low-cost sector. Lose-lose really.

We are also on the verge of many automation breakthroughs that will make many low skilled jobs obsolete, and at the same time huge challenges that can only solved by highly skilled people.

Well… maybe aside from price.

It is kinda cool that I can get it shipped with Qubes though, which I assume means hardware support is solid.
In the past I tried to immigrate to Canada, so I have first hand experience with the ludicrous process.

I was 28 years old and hold a CS degree, had 6 years experience in the field, was actively employed remotely by a company in my European native nation that has a dual tax agreement with Canada (so willing to pay taxes there and could show I would be able to sustain my self). I also took the language proficiency tests that were required and passed with flying colours.

I tried for a year and a half, but then just gave up and went back to Europe.

Just as an example of how bad the system is/was (this was back in '15) I would have received the points I needed (they ran a point system where each aspect of the person gives them certain number of points, placing them on a scale indicating their desirability) if I had taken a job with a corner grocery store in my neighborhood. And then held that job for up to a year.

It is/was a bonkers system.

So Canada's is in no way a system to model anything by. A society does not just run on PhDs.

Ifor the record I am completely for immigration, for people who have no education and up to PhDs. I am pro free flow of goods and people in Schengen. I am not for completely open boarders though.
It depends on whether you think copying a list of constants from what is essentially an “API” is copyright infringement.

Well of course you fixed your arch install in a matter of an hour, you're a Haskell developer.
> Oh? Why do you say that? I mean, I doubt knowing what the creator said has that big of an impact but maybe I'm wrong on that.

Are you gonna argue that there exists a significant number of people that would pronounce it jif with no prompting? That's quite a stretch
I wholeheartedly agree with you. The importance of those people has been proven when, during the first waves of COVID, they stopped being called low wage workers, and instead words like essential workers were used much more often.

I worked as an essential worker when I was in high-school, and the amount of shit I had to put up was insane. Your boss is screwing you over, one way or another, the people you service demand you treat them like they are the most important being in the world. I don't say it happens to everybody, but for a lot of people, this is the reality of wage labor.
>Anachronisms and appeals to authority (the originator's preference) bear little weight here - a word is added to a language on consensus

If you watch Back to the Future (which came out in 1985), Dr Brown pronounces gigawatts as jigawatts, and now the common pronunciation has a hard G. It has the same initial gi-, so I guess sometime in the 1990's the trend was to prefer hard G over soft G in technical words which start with gi-.
This makes sense, kind of like kicking someone from a chat room or subreddit you control because that's not the kind of discussion you want.

It seems most people who use twitter don't understand this though.
From what I've seen, subsidies and regulations are the primary cause of inefficiency in healthcare:

https://www.athenahealth.com/knowledge-hub/practice-manageme...

>>Here's some food for thought: The number of physicians in the United States grew 150 percent between 1975 and 2010, roughly in keeping with population growth, while the number of healthcare administrators increased 3,200 percent for the same time period.

*

>>Supporters say the growing number of administrators is needed to keep pace with the drastic changes in healthcare delivery during that timeframe, particularly change driven by technology and by ever-more-complex regulations. (To cite just a few industry-disrupting regulations, consider the Prospective Payment System of 1983 [1]; the Health Insurance Portability & Accountability Act of 1996 [2]; and the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Act of 2009. [3])

In contrast, areas of medicine which are subject to much fewer subsidies and regulations, as a consequence of being electives, have seen prices actually decline in inflation adjusted terms. [4]

Let's circle back in a few months; I too feel nostalgic when I visit my dad's and play some classic games on the old faithful PC from my youth (still rocking a 17'' Trinitron CRT). But after a few hours reality hits since I use my PCs nowadays to actually... get stuff done. I can't imagine that PC would be very useful for any productivity work, at most (frustratingly slow) browsing.
That's more reasonable.

That said 3000 square feet is still 20ft x 150ft, 280 square metres, bigger than the plot of the 3 bed detached house I grew up in, bigger than the plot of my 4 bed semi I lived in recently - both of which above average prices for the region.

Some forums used to have a "block for a while" option, usually hours or days. But that dropped out of fashion for reasons I am not sure of - I suspect most users discovered that actually it was just annoying to repeatedly re-block the same people.

Stross blog has a user known as "the seagull" who creates new accounts frequently and spams vulgarity daily. She knows Stross personally and apparently he has decreed that she is allowed to do that. So a lot of his readers install plugins to suppress her comments... and have to regularly block new accounts that she creates (she has a very distinctive posting style)
Was the author aware that "hoobs and its security camera plugins" were going to break from this push? Or any prod servers, for that matter?

I see no code in there that checks if it is running in production. In fact, it is a reasonable expectation that people don't throw code into production blindly, but rather test any changes out first.
Funny story, I'm actually looking to make the opposite switch t430 -> t480.

My t430 is already equipped with 16gb ram and modded EC so I can use cheap 3rd party batteries and the OG 7 row keyboard instead of the trash 6 row island keyboard.
There are still some upgrades to be made like i7 QM cpu, and a 1600x900 IPS screen, but I just can't justify the costs anymore.

The reason for moving to t480 soon is that I'll be doing the t25 frankenpad mod solely just for the 7 row keyboard.
Better power effiecient cpu, nvme and high res screen is a cherry on top.

So far my thinkpad experience has been superb, and both my machines t410 + t430 have survived many drops and various liquid spills(water/coffee/alcohol)
and besides replacing the keyboard, I had 0 issues. Hopefully the t480 will be similar experience.
But not the piece of art, as many people claim.

Edit: Missed to not. I assume it still was clear
So when I put on clothes, I first have to put on socks, then leave the room, and then put on the shoes.

You could put one sock on, then go to the other room and put a shoe on, return to the first room for the other sock, and then go back and put the second shoe on.

It'd be like applying a bubble sort to getting dressed.
After upgrading the display, CPU, disk, RAM, fan, battery it's a bit click-baity to say you've gone back to a 2012 ThinkPad - but interesting read non the less.

What surprised me the most is that Lenovo ships something as annoying as a loud fan (easily replaceable even for a home tinkerer). Of course they save a few pennies per laptop; but no laptop can ever be good if it's noisy. That was one of the main reasons why I bought an X301 ThinkPad many years ago, even when it fanned like crazy it was very quiet. But the clever design of the original ThinkPad's was starting to fade already then; the X301 actually had it's speakers on top. So you could spill liquid on it, unless you happened to spill it on top of one of your top mounted speakers of course.

I've also gone through a few ThinkPad's over the years, and ever since they stopped being IBM; they seem to loose more and more of the "premium feel" for every generation. Especially the keyboard is way better on my old T40 then on the one I use right now (T14).
Similar to the egg/chicken question. The answer is neither, they both evolved at the same time.

Not really, individual package developers don't have as much inmediate control over the repository's state as they do with NPM. Packages go through a review by one of the trusted developers and sometimes automated QA and testing (including as of late reproducibility testing, i.e. does the source match the binary?), before being uploaded to the repository.

If you can't trust the team behind the distro, then sure, your supply chain is compromised, but it's significantly less likely for a single package developer to cause any damage, as all the big distros have rather extensive policy and procedures to prevent such things.

Gaming on computers is such an edge case for a tiny fraction of the population, the hardcore gamers. Most people simply don't even have a powerful enough computer to run AAA games anyway and buy a playstation, xbox or switch to play games.

And I always had fun playing hedgewars on linux with some friends, thank you.

It is funny you mention drivers because:
- printing and scanning on my fedora laptops is a totally flawless and transparent experience, only requiring at the beginning to install a package which was pretty quick using gnome software. Doing the same on the windows laptop of my girlfriend required spending 10 minutes getting the correct driver on the manufacturer website, installing the drivers including a ton of random unneeded software, rebooting the laptop and now everytime she wants to print anything she gets some annoying popup windows.
- the prior scanner I used for 25y before moving country was still perfectly supported on my linux distributions while the last available driver for windows was for windows 2000. Better hardware support from Linux actually allowed me to use my scanner more than 10y longer than if I had been using a Windows or Mac.

Some exotic hardware may not be supported at time of release on linux but all in all if you do your homework before shopping there is no issue.
Fair use is such a meme at this point often perpetrated by content creators who want to infringe on copyright (because they disagree with many parts of copyright law) so they claim whatever they're doing is just "fair use".

The authors of this library can't possibly defend themselves by claiming fair use and they damn well know it. The real question is whether the tool really does break encryption or if the tool is just an implementation of the algorithm that doesn't comply with their terms and conditions. Theoretically, a white-room reverse engineered implementation could be written without signing any contract and the terms and conditions would only serve to cut off their access after violation, but you'd probably have a hard time convincing a judge of that. I don't favour their chances in a lawsuit, but as they don't publish any keys, it's clear that they don't really break anything.

There could still be a violation going on if they hold one of those silly American software patents, but that would be solvable by only distributing the tools in countries where these patents can't be enforced. That also wouldn't be covered by a DMCA takedown of course, they'd need to start an actual lawsuit for that.
> I think EVs will quickly overtake ICE vehicles once they're price competitive and battery manufacturing scales up to the levels needed, but that's a separate issue from government bans.

Not entirely. Government bans provide additional incentive for manufacturers to switch to EVs, which hastens price competitiveness through economy-of-scale effects.
