Everything statement that comment makes about make is incorrect, except the bit about polling.

Polling is better-addressed by having each service implement its own error handling. Restart loops are the wrong policy for most services. In the rare cases where they are actually the correct behavior, they’re trivial for the service author to implement.

Those that don’t understand make are doomed to reimplement it poorly.
I remember a NOVA on one of the Mars landers. Nobody had ever landed anything on Mars with a parachute before, so the developers had a massive problem. They built this humongous facility to test parachutes. One design after another failed, for several months. They finally found a design that worked.

I don't know what building a second chute would cost, but I bet it would be less than one thousandth of the cost of #1.
I'm from the UK and it may be different in other places - but I have a friend who works for a large automaker in their second hand ex-lease team who explained this to me, so it absolutely exists here at least!
A chat "solution" that your correspondent doesn't use is the worst experience of all.

Not always. Back in the day, it was simply a group of people, not wanting to earn money but to set information free. That was maybe shady in terms of legality, but ethically, nothing has ever been less shady than initial TPB.
Do you really work in a team where people are not at all expected to try to help themselves?
That's not much of an elaboration. Further, I am doubtful, because something always goes wrong. So if a project that has seen decades of delays and billions of dollars of budget overruns has suddenly invented engineering and processes that yields zero failures, count me surprised.

I just wish there was more elaboration of things they are able to accommodate for as things inevitably pop up and not this hyper focus on a number of supposed single point failures.
Isn't that effective like what the crater is currently doing? It's effectively already concentrating the methane and burning it off before it fills the atmosphere.
I've tried Devuan once then it some roadblock because Docker wouldn't run easily on it, but that was a long time ago.

I may try it again one of these days now that the latest Devuan stable is based on Debian Bullseye.

The "why" is simple: to restore some balance in the force.

I do prefer my Linux world to be one where I still have a choice as to which init system and PID 1 my system is running.
> Thus saying “People don’t want to run their own servers” is akin to saying “People don’t want to start their own YouTube channel”. Both sentences contain the same amount of statistical bullshit.

The key difference is that starting a Youtube channel is free and dead simple. The reason people don't want to run their own servers is because in most cases it's as expensive, or more expensive, than having someone else do it for you, and requires a huge amount of skill and patience, not to mention risk tolerance.

In general, I think this article misinterprets the statement that "People don’t want to run their own servers, and never will" by taking it too literally. The meaningful counter-argument isn't "this cannot be factually true, some people want to run their own servers", because that's clearly not what he meant. Obviously some people want to run their own servers, and some people have to run servers to keep the whole thing going, but that's a trivial point rather than a devastating counterargument.
Networking on linux is wildly powerful. Most desktop/SOHO installations would just be Wifi + DHCP. Maybe some VPN in the mix. But on the other side of the scale, there are routers with complex netfiltering, vlans, crazy GRE Tunnels, Tun/Tap, Wireguard, macvlans split between namespaces, bridges, etc, you name it.

Defining a straightforward configuration structure for that complexity is going to be insane. NetworkManager + Debian's /etc/network/interfaces (IMHO) seems to be a good fit: auto config w/ a GUI in NM in the simple case, and if the interface is listed in /etc/network/interfaces, you can do it anyway you want with Debian's system, with pre-up, up, post-up, post-down, etc scripts to your heart's content to setup whatever complexity you need.
This article (https://www.kraken.com/en-us/learn/what-is-nano) goes into how it keeps the network secure. But Proof of Stake is the basics of it.

I sent you one Nano to play with. Let me know what you think! For me, I think Nano is a great replacement to cash. You can give and receive without fees. It makes a great way to donate or pay for things.
Where do you get these ideas from? Simply not having to commit to class work is fun. You can literally play a video game if you are remote too. It’s a dream come true for these kids.
Proposed bill in New Hampshire would enshrine free software into law

I think usually yes, otherwise you call it something like a "spare" (i.e. a period where you don't have a class and aren't monitored).

I suppose "hall" probably traditionally refers to something like a "great hall" or "meeting hall" not a "hallway", i.e. a relatively large room.

When school budgets are cut and underpaid teachers leave the industry "Oh, that's just the free hand of the market." When a multilateral, societal disaster strikes and schools struggle with contradicting demands: "What an inept bunch we have running these schools"

Very few are being honest on why the kids have to be in school (so it doesn't disrupt parents' labor), so it's framed as "think of the children" when TFA shows that little education happens at school when teachers are sick. Zoom class is terrible, but its better than the shitshow described in the fine article. Worse, if students get into dangerous situations while at school/playing hooky because there isn't adequate adult supervision, the same people will have the gall to blame the schools.
>>> On Mastodon, 1 million active users but only 2 thousand (0.2%) instances
On Tor, 2.5 millions users but only 6 thousand (0.24%) relay servers

The problem with this counterexample is that these are fringe platforms. Thriving in their own right, resilient, but a rounding error in chat and web traffic, respectively.

In other words, those who run their own servers are the fringe of a fringe.

The content creator comparison doesn’t make sense, with centralized hosting one content creator can supply an infinite amount of consumers. Not so with hosting.
Ok, we've changed to that from https://twitter.com/NASAWebb/status/1479880178021060609 above. Thanks!
You can use any cross-platform messenger instead of iMessage. Which is what most people on earth do.
$3-5B would go a long way to a new Einstein telescope (ie. gravitational waves detector). It would likey allow for significant sensitivity increases in the existing ones. It could propel the National Ignition Facility or ITER forward. It could be used to build a new Arecibo. It could add an enormous amount of low-frequency telescopes - or other scopes for very large integrated scope arrays.

I'd much rather broaden our view than double it in one narrow band. (Or advance fusion research.)
>I do have some experience with this. I worked for 3 years on the design of the 757. Thousands of engineers spending maybe 5 years on it.

Just wanted to say that's really awesome. The 757 is by far my favorite Boeing jet of all time. They are so overpowered it feels like taking off in a fighter jet. Delta still flies them from LAX to HNL, and it's always so much better than cramming into a 737.

Immunocompromised people (as a group, many of whom can get vaccinated anyway) generously make up ~3% of the total population. What is the other 22% of the aforementioned 25% doing? There’s no need to point to exceptions when there is a much bigger unexplained group, it just gives them undue plausible deniability.

Forget myocarditis, forget the f#cking covid for a second.

If we want to apply about "let's think of the kids" mentality, then let's think of the kids.What will we do now or in the upcoming years when suicide rates, cognitive development problems, and a lot of other issues from subfields of psychiatry are >bound< to rise due to the measures imposed on these kids? We think of protecting others but we don't think of protecting kids who require more care: in the sense of them becoming self-reliant and developing themselves.

To me this is the biggest hypocrisy and bullsh#t indicator of this whole mentality of "protecting others".We don't need >restrictive< measures to protect kids themselves, the best thing we can do to protect them is to let them develop, which is the exact opposite kind of measure we take to protect adults and elderly people.
The fundamental problem is that problems with centralized platforms are attributed to centralization, and thus decentralization is seen as the answer. This is entirely false. Centralization and decentralization are just words that have an objective definition. Neither is inherently better than the other and choosing either as a solution to your problem is entirely context dependent. Anyone that has a stake in crypto / web 3 conveniently leaves this crucial piece of information. E.g. it's a different solution to the same problem, not a _better_ solution the same problem. Having options by itself can be a valuable use case, but I'm afraid the gold rush is not driven by the excitement for having options, but rather for the excitement of becoming rich quick.
Blame mobile carriers in the US for this. Data rates were very high for a long time and eventually texts went from $.10/each (receiving and sending) to “free” w a phone plan before most people had a phone that could install an app.

We still don’t have data only phone plans in the US on major carriers, AND phone plans are insanely expensive compared to what you get in almost any other country, AND most of the country is more spread out so wifi isn’t guaranteed.

The US is very expensive when it comes to telecom, and just about any other industry where there’s a duopoly/cartel that doesn’t bother competing anymore. Come to think of it, there’s very few aspects of the US that doesn’t work like this.
I have not been personally affected, no.
I mean, I agree with problem while vehemently disagreeing with proposed cause. It somehow puts blame on "others" for interoperability, whereas my personal perception is that Apple said "&@#& screw interoperability - we will make sure things work right in our own ecosystem only, through closed proprietary systems, and who cares about anybody not using our hardware".

Live photos not working on other phones is not THEIR fault for goodness sake. It's a proprietary iPhone gimmick Apple have spent zero effort in trying to work anywhere else. Same for portrait photo etc.

Apple is intentionally building a walled garden of proprietary stuff that purposefully doesn't work outside. From charger to text to photos to everything else, they see their future in blazing their own path as opposed to compatibility.

I too am frustrated in my iPhone photos being a pain anywhere outside, but seeing as my android Nikon canon windows Linux google adobe Microsoft etc systems all seem to talk happily with each other, I know exactly where to scream in rage at.

- Sent from my iPhone, fwiw

Edit: not that you're alone mind you. Apple's marketing machine and prestige identity works brilliantly - Most iPhone users I know feel that's everybody else's fault, which only makes the brand loyalty firmer - it's a perpetually self enforcing perception.
At my company, we have a pairing buddy system for junior engineers. Each week a senior eng was my official "buddy" to help me in whatever I needed, then we would pair via Tuple. This was really great in order for me to grow.
Yes, books introducing languages by implementing fun applications, like games in this case, usually helps me keep motivation and interest longer than other kinds of “Introduction to ..” books.
> Google, like Microsoft, just doesn’t care about quality or interoperability, and consumers like me notice.

It's absurd to blame Google or Microsoft for this. If anything Google is the one pushing for an interoperable alternative to iMessage.

When you send a photo using iMessage to an Android user, it's delivered over MMS. The technological restrictions of MMS are what's at fault here.
It's not too complicated. Your likelihood of catching covid - or anything else for that matter - increases not with the number of times you interact with them, but with the amount of time. Any time you're wearing a mask is time wear you have a substantially reduced likelihood of exhaling infected particles, or inhaling particles exhaled by carriers.

This is why open plan offices have higher disease transmission rates, even if they have the same cafeteria configuration as a non-open plan office.
Mediawiki has had a wysiwyg editor for a while now
I assume everyone has read a message if it has been a few hours after it has been sent, or definitely within 24 hours, whether they deny having read it or not. Whether or not it was delivered is the key information.

The percent of people not constantly checking their phone has got to be so vanishingly small.
I would love to see servers become easier to host. Personally I enjoy hosting my own services, its super rewarding and I've learned an absolute ton about computers and networking.

I think making it easy to host reliable and secure servers we would see more people jumping in. Maybe not huge amounts but enough to change the ecosystem.
Author here. Yes simply editing my hosts file would have been much easier. The reason I went the longer approach of setting up the payload on a remote web server was because there is the concept of security zones in Internet Explorer. Visiting localhost in Internet Explorer gets treated with a different level of trust compared to randomwebsite.com. For example, if you go to your security settings in Internet Explorer, there is an "Internet" zone but also a "Local intranet" zone. If you compare the two, you'll see they have different security settings. By hosting the payload on an external domain, we ensure that we are simulating an identical environment that existed for the attack (and are not subject to a different level of trust).

Well I guess I’m not saying it doesn’t ever have a place, it’s nice to have a universal means of communication, but for regular ongoing communication within a given subset of people it is certainly not a great experience.
As someone once pointed out, safety lockout locks being easy to pick is a feature. They are a very strong communication device, not a security measure.
> it's part of a broader targeting of muslims that occurs across western europe and at every level of society.

Except of course it isn’t. Caricatures poking fun at various religions are common, have been for quite a while, and people complain about them regularly. Yet we’ve somehow accepted that we can make fun of a big guy with a beard. Somehow nobody has been killed over the Life of Brian.

There are a couple of fundamental human rights to which everyone is entitled. These include freedom of conscience, the right to live in peace, and freedom of expression. Religion is fine as long as it does not interfere with the rights of other people, which includes the right to laugh at beliefs. Humans have rights, ideas don’t.

On the other hand, nobody has a right not to be upset, and certainly not to kill people and plant bombs over it. It really should be a no brainer for anyone supposed to be supportive of any kind of enlightenment values.

This ”they should not do it, but” is just as bad as “I am not racist, but”. That we are arguing whether people have a moral right to violence where the rule of law prevails, over something as trivial as hurt feelings, is absolutely disgusting.

Try to substitute “Islam” for any philosophy or belief to see how patently absurd that is. Republicans are upset when you tell them Biden won. Should we censure that from public discourse?
It's not a mind virus which is causing some places to have peak hospitalizations of the pandemic.
I agree. But the post of Moxie was also the only one till now that actually showed what most of us think.

But way better explained, done and researched than anyone tried. Because most don't even try.

I think it leveled both sides ( including me).

The ability to flip a place on a list for gain certainly can be rendered illegal by State Legislation - if the state cares, but it seems that many others also hate the idea, theater tickets etc come to mind.
Another evil business using censoring for their AD's https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=28616683 are used by random netizens to back their hate on China and Chinese people. Meanwhile majority of discussions do not seem bother to verify the source and continue passionate discussion as if they actually know what's going on.

I am not sure what to make off this. Since I myself repeated this same behavior all the time. And I see no one not even Noam Chomsky showing something that is fundamentally different?
Right, it is actually possible Intel found the one set of multi-threaded tests where they can lower the voltage/frequency to match the M1 Pro/Max power consumption and just edge ahead on performance due to sheer thread count. Apple decided their high-end laptop needed x number of cores, Intel can always grab a desktop part with x+n cores, shove it into a laptop, and claim a victory.

Makes for a good marketing slide. Does not say a whole lot about the whole package, or every other workload besides this one that laptops might run. Say for example, single thread power efficiency, or anything that needs a GPU and won't drain the battery in 30 minutes.
Funny, but the premise is insane: that Lisp is ful of things that are done better elsewhere and that Lisp is the weapon against bugs. I worked professionally in Lisp (Scheme) and this is 100% false. In my experience dynamically typed languages (incl. Lisp, Python, and Smalltalk) will absolutely be more bug prone than a good typed language (like Haskell or Rust) on non-trivial programs.
Sure. Other people get it though (compare comment scores). So I think it's you.
Idempotent is a perfectly cromulent word for a technical article not aimed at complete newbies.
It’s a shame this is downvoted because you are completely right. Covid ain’t going anywhere. Society needs to move on.
I agree completely with the "coin a day will remove the scarcity that creates value in cryptocurrency" but as the OP says, Bitcoin has gone up despite that. It's only because Bitcoin has the brand. There could be 1,000 competitors but the money will go where the brand name is because that's where everybody else is putting their money.

The only coin with any chance of unseating Bitcoin is Ethereum once the Eth2 conversion is done (increasing the speed and reducing the cost) simply because there's been so much community buy in and ecosystem around it that it will become the defacto network for everything.
Reminds me of the meme “I quit my 9-5 and now I work 24/7”

If you have debt or obligations that you arent willing to sacrifice or accept the consequences of sacrificing then don’t bother playing

But to answer your question, I started living for experiences more after big financial losses. I noticed that I was saving for something indeterminate and that after a loss I would have just been better off going to that festival or taking that vacation or something else consumptive

Eventually I got the inspiration and success to support my obligations and experiences. Probably not related, many paths possible, but I do think I meet more interesting people traveling to events than I did in an office setting
The part where it explains why "People don’t want to run their own servers, and never will." is a false statement because there are a few counter-examples seems like it's really missing the point. The vast majority of people don't want to, and indeed, most nerds also don't want to, even if you know some counterexamples.
And of course, it would not be difficult. Nuclear reactors could provide power almost indefinitely. Greenhouses could maintain plant life. Animals could be bred and slaughtered. A quick survey would have to be made of all the available mine sites in the country, but I would guess that dwelling space for several hundred thousands of our people could easily be provided.
Am currently a teen in high school so here's my hot take. No one actually gives a shit about the color of the bubble, like beyond it being annoying that you can't add more people to a gc if one person has an android it's not an actual problem. I would love to meet a person who actually cares about the color of a message that this article is talking about because I have yet to find them lol. And plus most of the time we aren't using iMessages, (using Discord/Snap/Insta instead) so no one even knows if you have an iPhone or not, we just want to talk to our friends, no matter the phone.

I think systemd is OK for a lot of things, I don't even hate journald. The API pretty good.

But, I am 100% agreement on the whole resolvd thing. It is a complete fiasco for anything but someone's idea of a standard network.

Even the most basic things, like waiting for DNS to be up before mounting a network filesystem has to be done by writing your own units if you don't want to just try and mount and hope for the best.
> can you give an example of taxable assets?

Real property in most US jurisdictions; cars in several US jurisdictions (though this is sometimes obscured.by opaque terminology; e.g., California has “registration fees” that are, in effect, an ad valorem asset tax on automobiles); net personal wealth in several international jurisdictions.

> the realisation requirement is the fundamental rule of the IRS

That's income taxes (on gains), not property/asset taxes (on value).

One is a flow tax, the other a stock tax.
That's probably because its open source and the Patreon contributions don't compare well to a FAANG staff SDE salary. SemVer is highly constraining and its a PITA to work with when you're getting a 6-figure salary.

Not only does the antivaxxers prefer this approach, it's the approach they are already actively taking.
