All very pretty I'm sure. But, at the end of the day, much though I enjoy twiddling with Linux and poking around different distros, I'm stuck with MacOS because [like a lot of folks who use MacOS for work reasons and not to be 'hipster cool'] I work in the design industry and that means the Adobe suite is a must.

Linux has nothing that comes close. And the customary recommendations; The Gimp and Inkscape are so pitifully awful compared to Photoshop and Illustrator that I seriously doubt the people who suggest them are professional designers, who have to work with these packages, day in and day out. So, yeah, I'm all for Linux distros which try and lift some of the elegant design cues from MacOS. But, at the end of the day, the OS is just something I use to open / edit / save and move files around. It's not where I actually get my work done.
What about security patches for the Pop _OS specific desktop components? The underlying Debian components are maintained elsewhere.
Apparently triple braces signifies something is jewish, so it is even worse than first glance.

Monero is also probably big enough with a $4bn marketcap. It is liquid enough for the problem it solves for people.

Some use it as a payment conduit, some use it as a store of value, both of those particular private-by-default use cases are solved in other ecosystems good enough, for now.

There is $500mm in Tornado Cash at the moment
I guess I don't get how operating systems are still something that people have such strong opinions on. All of the major operating systems are good enough or can be made good enough by installing a few packages.

Pop may be great, but it's useless if you need to run Final Cut Pro. macOS is wonderful, but not if you want to play a lot of AAA games. Windows is fine, but if you are doing a lot of Ruby on Rails you may have an easier path on some Linux distro.
very cool -- am an ultradistance athlete -- definitely could be a Kickstarter!
OKRs. Obviously.
X forwarding via compressed SSH (ssh -XC) is likely the simplest bet, especially now that WSL has good support for it, if you need more advanced remote desktop you can take a look at x2go which is based on NoMachine's NX protocol.
Yeah, how about Ford sold 10000 Mach-E cars without putting proper glue for the roof?
I wasn't clear in my original post, apologies. I was referencing private employer data that is reported for unemployment insurance purposes.
Pedantic nit: Should be "symbols" rather than "words".
This is something I wonder about often as well. Why are all these coastal cities constantly being pumped full of money in the form of new building and real estate ventures when the forecasts show how risky of a long term investment it is? Sure, you can gain some short term profits, but these investments are being made by large banks with access to data on what these investments will look like _over decades_.

Are people just planning on sea walls, dikes, and other mega projects to deal with shifting coastlines? I can understand it for certain financially entrenched areas like New York City, but still... we're talking 10s - 100's of Billions in infrastructure to preserve these cities.

The cities themselves have an existential threat, one which they _have_ to throw money at to solve. It's the outside investors who _also_ throw money at these areas with the knowledge that _their_ investment requires these mega projects to pan out when there are other less risky investments that I find so mind boggling.
A fifty-year building doesn't have to be a fifty-year investment. If you can build something for $1m and sign contracts that guarantee you $400k in rent in the next five years, and you think there's an very good chance that you'll be able to sell for >$600k, then building makes sense.

This is the case for a building where I know a tenant, except that I changed the sums.
Cloudflare in front of Replit or Vercel would be same idea right
A person can be "Antiwork" and still actively engage in the wonder of creativity and building. Most of the antiwork sentiment that I have seen online is drawing attention to very poor and often illegal management practices.
It is not very unusual for experienced C++ coders to get this working for Wall Street traders. You have to be able to demonstrate you understand latency and memory hierarchy effects.

Many people don't want to work for them, or in adtech (e.g. F,G) or generally for evil companies. HFT has been called "automated stealing", and it's hard to argue it's not.
What are the better RDP options that debian is not packaging?
This repo mentions that threaded code is often used in Forth implementations, amongst other things.

One of the best descriptions of threaded code and how Forth works in general is the Jonesforth[1] source code, written in a literate programming style. The prose is excellent and the whole thing is worth reading through.

Tesla never should have branded the "Model 3" a Tesla. It brings the whole brand down. You can't have a "luxury brand" and have a cheap model.

They need to rebrand it the "Strive" or the "Dream" or the "Yearn" and remove Tesla branding and have separate dealers.
I hated my old electric stove, took forever to heat up, and forever to cool down. Thermal inertia was a problem because I am not Michelin rated, when it is too hot or too cold, I like being able to fix my mistake quickly. I have a gas stove now, and being able to turn a knob when my pan is about to overflow and have it instantly settle down is nice.

I think there are some nice electric stoves that use infrared heating and are plenty powerful and reasonably reactive, maybe that's what you have. Induction, of course, is even better.

Maybe the problem is really about price and quality. A gas stove will always work, even the cheapest gas stove has good temperature control and power. Even a camping stove can do decent cooking. You can also put anything on top of it, including your cheap bent aluminium frying pans. Cheap electric stoves lack power, and electric stoves, induction in particular require good quality, compatible cookware to work correctly.

Another problem with cheap electric stoves (especially induction) is that a lot of them have absolutely terrible capacitive switches that work half of the time. I never had this issue with knobs on a gas stove, even the cheap ones.
They do, you just don't read about one bad car incident. 1 millions BMW recalled with a risk of fire, youtube "BMW on fire". Is catching on fire is a basic safety part?
Switched to PopOs from Fedora kde/xmonad mix. Their tiling manager is functional enough for me and best of all I do not have to maintain my own desktop

I do much the same with our Volt - I have to slow down on a downhill to get in our driveway, and when I've got the car with nobody else in it, and nobody behind me, I build up some speed then really get on the friction brakes hard to keep them free and clean. If you never use the friction brakes, they'll also tend to seize up after a while.
From my perspective that's some kind of weird Chinese thing. For a different view, you could for example look at the discussion at https://music.stackexchange.com/questions/120433/why-don-t-p.... It's a long thread, but search for "professional" and you'll find the same by multiple posters. There's also an interesting conflict of interest between students, their parents and music schools.
"God willing", right?
> And the customary recommendations; The Gimp and Inkscape are so pitifully awful compared to Photoshop and Illustrator that I seriously doubt the people who suggest them are professional designers, who have to work with these packages, day in and day out.

Understandable. While I do think familiarity has some impact, I picked up photoshop for the first time much faster than The Gimp, Inkscape was closer but Illustrator was still faster.

For my purposes, running Linux+FL/OSS is worthwhile as a hobbyist however.

I'm curious if you've tried Krita, and if so what your experience was? I found it much much much more intuitive than The Gimp.
Aside from the advice that others have offered about salaries (and I’d support that most salaries for junior devs are well below 6 figures) I can say that response to applications don’t happen for a variety of reasons. I’m a seasoned, experienced engineer and I was not getting responses to jobs that I fit very well. I found once I started customizing my resume to a listing’s keywords that it made a huge difference. Making sure you’re listing as many skills as possible that are in the role, and explicitly calling out relevant (almost verbatim) experience will help you get past the automated systems. And everyone uses automated systems.
Maybe there's a German on the team who insisted on visually splitting the "Pop" from the "OS". "Popos" is German for "booties".
I bought a desktop from System76 (it's wonderful) so I gave Pop_os a spin. It's pretty clean but there were just too many little things that didn't _quite_ work right. Customizing keyboard shortcuts never quite got me what I wanted. UI elements in the status bar that would stop being clickable. Buggy config screens. I eventually gave up.

I love the idea and I wish them the best of luck, but as of a couple months ago, they weren't there yet.
Well technically the Western Roman Empire did not "fall" it just got merged back into the "eastern" Empire. The collapse of the Roman Empire is just a convenient concept invented by modern historians to serve as an arbitrary line between the ancient times and the middle ages. There were never two Roman Empires, just a single one universal empire ruled by multiple rulers. In 476 it just temporary lost direct control of it's Italian provinces (which it later regained). At the time it was not considered to be some monumental event (e.g. like the Sack of Rome (410) was).
> It's not arbitrary because it was part of the developer agreement you signed.

The value is arbitrary, not the fee.

> Must all regulator action "actually address the issues people have"?

Not necessarily, I'd think "address the issues people have" is a good place to start when you're regulating American corporate policy in a modern democracy.

I believe so. He might have switched or tried out Manjaro since he had issues with steam on Pop_OS.
You, my friend, are diving into the realm of formal semantics for programming languages. Benjamin Pierce's Types and Programming Languages is an excellent reference, but it is not for the faint of heart.
German cars have a weird reputation as being unreliable in the US. Which seems strange as a European where they generally have a pretty good reputation, maybe not as good as the Japanese brands but not a million miles away.

I think the difference is likely just that the average backstreet garage knows all the faults on a 2005 VW Jetta and how to fix them, they have the right diagnostic equipment to plug them in and read the fault codes etc.

In the US I suspect they'd be the same with most GM / Ford / Honda cars of the same era but would think twice about touching a VW or Mercedes.
That’s true for rangefinder style cameras but not for SLRs.

Most optical viewfinders will allow you to stop down for preview at the correct aperture.

There’s a useful feature on the X100 series to give you the framing offset.
Assuming this "complaint under the DMCA" was a standard DMCA takedown Google is legally obligated to do the takedown, or assume your liability (hint: they aren't going to do this). Did Google not give them the option to file a counterclaim?

Of course Google isn't going to check your website to see if you replaced the images, that's not their job. That's on purpose, that's how the law works. Takedown takes the content down, counterclaim puts it back up, then the claimant sues if they still disagree.
>This may seme like a vague question, but how do people figure out anything related to computer science, such as coding or command line, on their own. It's just so unbelievably hard doing the simplest of things. I get tons of error messages or nothing works, even with following a tutorial exactly.

You keep at it, understand and remember some simple things at first, read man pages/google for others, and eventually you make mental patterns and learn to understand what's going on, even when it's not working "as it should".
Emergent just means a more complex behavior (foxes tending to flee towards interactivity-dense areas) resulting from a simpler rule (while fox.spooked, maintain 100 triangles of distance away).

Flocking is an emergent behavior that is basically minimizing a loss function of "maintain x distance". If you implemented boid AI (birds) in skyrim and used triangle count as your metric, you'd be able to spot points of interest by the sudden increase in density of flocks. But players might extrapolate to the idea that "birds flock denser in cities". But no one programmed that behavior. It just emerged.
An unintended consequence that adds a feature is an emergent behavior isn’t it?
It's not. Linus used Manjaro.
The Real Bill Gates Story: Take One (1993)
NetHack lost it soul in the 3.x era as soon as they patched out iceboxing Rodney, merged in a bunch of SLASH('EM) stuff, added the Elemental Planes, etc. It's all stuff that optimizes for memorized, spoilered, scripted player behavior, and against general learning of a consistent world model.

Brogue carries the Hack torch better and is willing to try much more radical changes to bare that soul, to borrow your metaphor.

I'm also of the view that plain old Rogue (e.g. from 4.3 BSD, or the Epyx ports) is still immensely playable today. Why settle for imitators?
We need a currently "missing" network effect that cheap 3d printer supporting everything from more flexible plastics to metal will eventually provide.
> It feels a little too techy for a mainstream user.

To be fair, they market themselves as "Pop!_OS is an operating system for STEM and creative professionals who use their computer as a tool to discover and create." on the main page for the OS.

I'll admit, I don't love the !_ but for the opposite reason - it feels faux techy to me.
It took me (way too much) effort but I managed to get a pretty stable and smooth RDP server set up on my desktop. Sadly, GNOME3 and RDP don't work well together, so it broke after a random upgrade and hasn't worked since.

You used to be able to use X11 forwarding quite well, but most tools I use tend to render their entire screens as a canvas causing way too many unnecessary updates. Wayland also makes it nearly impossible to do this on a modern system without compatibility layers.

When RDP on Linux works, it works pretty well. I'd love for someone in the GNOME team to find a way to make RDP compatible and easier to set up. There's a VNC setting in the settings somewhere, but VNC is pretty insecure and terrible for interactive work.
You might find this[1] interesting:

> However, Savage said, there are signatures of resource constraints in present-day simulations that are likely to exist as well in simulations in the distant future, including the imprint of an underlying lattice if one is used to model the space-time continuum.

They did their experiment and did not find anything that would indicate an underlying lattice, but I can't find the paper right now.

Stopped a long time ago. Rely on memory or if bigger and more time critical I stick in my diary.
Not practical because of physics. It would ruin phone ergonomics and you'd end up with a brick. Or maybe requirea cumbersome adapter and lens assembly. New flagship phone camera assemblies are big and ugly enough as it is. Phones with 3 or 4 cameras because the consumer demands it.
Now that Windows 11 is a thing, I think winning desktop user share from Windows will be easier than ever before. What else is the average Joe going to do with their TPM-less devices?
For those of us who use to-do lists, where do you keep them?

My experiences:

- Colornote, the best i have found. You can have a to-do list without any distraction. Click and it’s crossed over, click again and its unchecked again. Only android, no sync, both are problems.

- Todoist, has some misguided notion that i want my to-do to have anything to do with a calendar. When you open the app, fist task is always to close the calendar, and go to the todo list. Will either delete or reorder checked tasks, annoying. Will auto-calendar items if you write something like ”Something today”, ARGGHH. But, it will work anywhere, and sync everything across devices, so my current choice.
His point at the end about the impossibility of the word "un-Danish" is at least thirty years out of date, if not 80. "Udansk" is fairly frequently used, across the political spectrum, usually denoting some variation of intolerance, unwillingness to compromise, and narrowmindedness which are implied almost universally to be antithetical to Danishness.

Even on the right, the phrases "Danish culture" and "Danish values" are used much more than any reference to blood or ethnicity. It is very much a fringe view to suggest that people are not able to become like us and assimilate (though a lot less fringe to claim that many foreigners, especially muslims, don't want to do so.)
This is a little off-topic, but I've been wanting to switch from Windows to Linux and the one thing stopping me is the lack of a good package manager. WAIT, let me explain.

On Windows, you can just `scoop install ripgrep fzf jq` and you're in business. And updating all installed packages is one command away.

Meanwhile on Debian, the system packages are often years out of date. So authors have started making their own custom install scripts [1], or just telling you to `curl` the binary into /usr/bin [2]. To update these manually-curled binaries you need to run a different set of steps for every one. There's no way to list outdated apps, and there's no easy way to update everything.

On top of that, many apps I use aren't even packaged (k9s, broot are two random ones I just found). Sometimes you can find a third-party repo, but that's yet another person you rely on to get updates. Whereas with scoop, it fetches straight from the source, so there's never any waiting.

Is there some alternative to `apt` that everyone is using? Or how do people generally deal with this?

To be honest the only good RDP I’ve used is Windows RDP. I’m not saying that Debian isn’t packaging a good alternative but rather I haven’t seen a good option that’s useable for interactive work.
If I understood the article correctly the four type of functions are present in Julia:

julia> factorial(3) # term -> term
6
julia> typeof(3) # term -> type
Int64
julia> one(Float32) # type -> term
1.0f0
julia> Vector{Float32} # type -> type
Vector{Float32} (alias for Array{Float32, 1})

And actually more mixed:

julia> using StaticArrays
julia> SVector{3, Float32}(1, 2, 3)
3-element SVector{3, Float32} with indices SOneTo(3):
1.0
2.0
3.0
julia> convert(Float32, 1)
1.0f0

Julia is of course dynamic, so maybe it's cheating? I'm writing this comment because all the greek in that cube, and actually using a cube, makes this look like very abstract stuff but I consider Julia a very practical language.

> Untyped scripting languages are fine for scripts. Honestly idk why developers write big libraries in untyped languages like JavaScript and Python.

How much are you invested in Tesla, so that you're willing to vigorously argue for and justify delivering a car that is missing brakes in multiple comments. Elon fanboyism doesn't make sense in this case.
Apart from everything else: Last time Russia invaded Ukraine they shot down a civilian air plane that was travelling from the Netherlands to Malaysia (MH17). A war between Russia and Ukraine would not just affect those two countries.
Quite some caveats. Minimum storage used per month is 1TB. That means, if you store 250MB of files on there you will still be charged for the whole TB. Also, you will be charged for storing those files for at least 90 days even if you only keep them for 1 day. Lastly, and this is a very important one, you only have free egress equaling the total amount of data you have stored. So, say you have 2 TB stored, you can only egress 2 TB that month.

If you start to exceed that limit they are free to suspend your account.

So it depends very much on your use case, but there were too many risks for my use cases.
Every year is the Year of Linux on the Desktop as more people move over.
I don't know of a single car made in the last 10 years where it's normal to lose "half a cup over every few months." Every car I or my family have owned in the last thirty years has never needed coolant added to it over years of ownership.

Water pumps "weeping" coolant is a sign of failed seal, not by design.

The GP commenter's buddy was sold a car by someone who was trying to pass off a needed repair; likely a leaking radiator or failing head gasket if they were unlucky. If they were lucky: a bad radiator cap or a failing coolant system hose.

If they were really, really unlucky: a failing heater core.
I agree that for standard hash tables this won’t work. However, I recently read about “Ideal Hash Trees” [0], that preserves the entire hash. That design also requires all bits to be “random” because it lacks the usual prime division.

This is true for all startup founders even if not bootstrapping because startup founders are generally advised to take tiny salaries in exchange for long term equity. Even if not bootstrapping, they are bootstrapping by supplementing their personal life with savings or trading off on quality of life (no travel vacations etc).

As tech salaries have ballooned in the last few years, the opportunity cost has gone out of whack -- if you go read message boards of what people are making at FAANGs, the odds are stacked against the startup founder / bootstrapper living on ramen for 5 years because the FAANG salary makes millionaires with 100% probability.

For any 5 year startup to make up for that it most likely needs to exit at 30M or greater which puts the founder in top 2% territory.
After my previous Linux experience with Ubuntu 10 years ago, I gave pop os a try last year and was surprised how good it was.

I think the engineers at System76 really know what they are doing and am excited about their new DE.
Throw them in the trash and buy a new PC. They are pretty cheap.
Well that's somewhat comforting at least. It just feels so normalized here on HN but the demographics are understandably skewed.
Human behavior is contagious, and that often enough leads to disease-y outcomes. If we were more proactive about behaviour as a means to prevention the world would be a much different place. However, prevention isn't as profitable as a fully realized disease.

Highlanders have always been good to me, I've heard of them lasting to 500-600k miles without major problems and still work fine.

Since I drive about 5k miles per year, I'm hoping mine will last me 80 more years. That's reasonable, right? :P
