The perceived value of gold lies in its scarcity, there is only so much of it to go around [1]. No matter how much people may have tried, it is not realistically possible to create more gold.

This is not true for cryptocurrencies, the term shitcoin did not come out of nowhere. While there may be artificial scarcity within a single cryptocurrency there is no scarcity of cryptocurrencies. Everyone and (literally - Dogecoin) his dog can launch a new shitcoin and try to dupe investors into driving up its value, if only for a short while. By the time the hype is past those who launched the shitcoin will have cashed out already, making off with a large fraction of whatever they managed to dupe people into investing in the scheme.

In Automotive manufacturing, CKD kits are a thing - Completely Knocked Down, or disassembled and shipped as parts and re-assembled again, to avoid taxes like this.
Oh absolutely and I hope my tone captured that it’s not clear if the bets work out. Sometimes yes, sometimes no. Vienna spending all its economic output on art and science sure didn’t help against a country who spent its entire output on tanks.

The Soviet space program comes to mind as well - the state can do plenty!
You just pinpointed my biggest issue right now with windows. Found 8 or 9 different titlebars on my normally opened windows that have very little visual differences between active an inactive state and furthermore often no visual difference between window and titlebar.
It feels like I more often than not click outside of intended window and also start to type with the wrong window active.

Direct democracy != participatory democracy. Voting vs deliberation.

> Amazon seeks to avoid common-mode failures between AZs (and thus regions).

there is a distinction between azs within a region vs azs in different regions. the overwhelming majority of services are offered regionally and provide slas at that level. services are expected to have entirely independent infrastructure for each region, and cross-regional/global services are built to scope down online cross regional dependencies as much as possible.

the specific example brought up (cross regional sts) is wrong in the sense that sts is fully regionalized as evidenced by the overwhelming number of aws services that leverage sts not having a global meltdown. but as others mentioned in a lot of ways it’s even worse because customers are opted into the centralized endpoint implicitly.

From my short 1 month experiene working in a clinical ward: if young people got brought in due to a psychosis, in the case that it was drug induced, at least 50% were long term cannabis users (followed by alcohol abuse, then some psychoactive drugs, and heroin/crack).

Cannabis definitely is not the vanilla drug so many people make it out to be.

*EDIT: I get the selection bias now, sorry.
> Moving them to the center of the screen is a pointless, but harmless, bit of cosmetics.

I think this is probably because the UX people they got to design it all use Macs.
yup. It's an interesting story, but the article is about generalizable impacts of cannabis, and this person in the story is certainly not an example of that. Granted, it was acknowledged that this was an extreme case.
Like tether swears All the money is in their accounts..
Yes, but on macOS the Dock can still be put to the side of the screen, it supports drag and drop and right-clicking, etc.

Windows 11 broke most of that, which is the most common complaints I have (and hear). Windows’ SnapAssist is _amazing_, and I miss it on the Mac, but I am not happy with what was done to the taskbar.

(I use both OSes and Linux, so I am OK with change, just not losing flexibility)
> In my experience, the main reason to not eat healthy or exercise is because doing those things takes time, easily a LOT of time

Instead they waste the time that would've made them healthier and happier on bullshit.
Your argument is absurd. Sure, some caveman consumed alcohol that happened to occur naturally a gazillion years ago. So? You think huge factories producing alcohol and all the issues associated with it are justified?

By what you say, if whole of humanity consumed only naturally fermented fruit, I would half-heartedly agree.
11 is better but there's still a few of these tunnel vestiges that show up, like removing a driver from a hardware device or adding NTP servers.
That’s right, nothing like default-EE2E-enabled group chat, viewable and auditable server code, AND encrypted-data-at-rest; like Signal, unlike Telegram.
I would still have to pay for it, it would just cost me more in taxes. People who work for the government don't work for free. Right now I am paying with my attention/data instead of with my money which I like.

I REALLY do not want to pay for a bunch of random services with my tax dollars. In your example, once I lose interest in youtube (or peertube in this case) I would still be paying for other people to use it and I get no benefit.

Right now, when I lose interest in Facebook (as I did) I just move on to the next service, it is unbelievably friction free. I just type a few letters in a URL.

Facebook dislodged Myspace, Tiktok is competing with Facebook, Discord is a brand new social media product. Anyone is totally free to create a subscription service or alternative (see DuckDuckGo). I don't understand the monopoly case.
That seems like it would be far worse for the children in question than the current situation.
or having to press the start button in the taskbar to stop/turn off your computer!
"I drive better when I've had a few" is something I have actually heard from people in my past. Far, far past. And they think that because they no longer have that voice in their head that tells them they're doing something stupid.

"I code better when I'm high" is something that can only be judged by those around you. If somebody else judges your code to be better, fine. But your self assessment is fundamentally flawed.
> Make any new features - like Windows Mixed Media - a la carte add ons - heck even charge for them let the market speak

Aren't they still charging for the DVD player on Windows? They've been doing that since either 8 or 10, and there's been a pretty consistent chain of outcry about it.
Caffeine has less of an effect on you the longer you consume it. With cannabis it would seem that this particular effect gets stronger.
Mmm sounds like American individualism. You do not live in isolation and nothing happens in isolation. Everything we/you do affects others. Freedom is a false carrot that's been used to make people feel good enough so they don't burn down their governments when things go wrong. Stop paying rates/taxes and see how free you are.

Every single person who end up in EC/ER due to drugs/alcohol/jumping off roofs, are a drain on society. Yes it great that we can fix those people up when they hurt themselves, but where is the line when people get reckless etc? Someone is paying to get your broken leg fixed. We all need to acknowledge that and appreciate one another. Every hour that I work, someone in my country gets fed by a government grant, all I ask is that the person take care of themselves and not waste my money.
Yes, it's almost as if society has developed firmly established norms about substance use which are so irrational as to be totally incoherent, and ITT you can find people reflexively confabulating justifications for those norms or trotting out the same tired old bromides to reassure themselves that the topic is being debated and that everything is fine.

Or maybe my drug-addled brain is just seeing pink elephants everywhere ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
He already won, microkernels are everywhere on the embedded space.

And lets not forget that those running Intel hardware need Minix to run Linux.

Ah and containers are nothing more than playing at microkernels with monolith OSes.
To see Google have what appears to be a regex 101 bug in parsing the string, along with making the classic programmer error of making fundimental assumptions based only on their own context .... frankly doesn't surprise me.

Google's software has long since started to be hit and miss for me. It has almost become as bad as Microsoft in that regard.

I have lost count of how often I am suggested to change my email's TLD from its proper Icelandic ending .is to .it or .io. To be fair, this is not Google related but universal.

If you dear reader do not do anything else today then to read up on the many falsehoods[0] we as humans can fall into (that then infects our software solutions) it would be a day well spent.

That's some theory. Personally, I don't buy in to it. The concept of a burning end of a ciggy replacing an actual fire is just too far out there for me to accept in some far reaches of the human psyche is out there.
Well andalusian does not have different words, just different accent and pronunciation, whilst catalan galician and basque have a different vocabulary, so there’s that.
Did they look permanently high, constantly talk about what route they drove to get wherever you were and how the traffic was along the way, refer to highway names with definite articles like "The 101", and say "dude" and "totally" a lot? Then they were just Los Angeles Californias. But yeah, they were also probably actually high.

I think maybe they meant Catalonia and failed at rewording Wikipedia [1], which says: "This valley constitutes the only contiguous part of Catalonia located on the northern side of the Pyrenees."

Your point still stands, that the wording is strange in Wikipedia, and River Runner agrees [2] that Llívia is on the south side. I think the BBC's wording is doubly incorrect, as there are other places in Spain north of the Pyrenees, e.g. Irun [3].

> Marijuana is a drug that makes people lazy

Not necesssarily true. On the right Sativa strain it makes me incredibly productive.
> Marijuana is a drug that makes people lazy

Some of my acquaintances have the paradoxical effect - they become less lazy.

Maybe similar to how amphetamines are used to treat ADHD - which seems perverse.

I believe it ends up why one was smoking (or using any substance in any way) in the first place.

If you're enjoying and it just becomes a (not super healthy-but not my point here) everyday habit, sure, you probably won't have withdrawal symptoms.

If you're using something to get away from some reality in life that is too unbearable, and that unbearable thing is still a matter when you want to quit, then it'll be hard. But it's not actually the substance (excluding hard/chemically super addicting class of substances like heroin or sugar) but the fact of facing the problems.

When I drink a lot of coffee I can still function 100% normally (and because of ADHD, even better than my usual) and I am in no way impaired. That cannot be said about cannabis. They are not the same.

You are confusing p(psychosis|cannabis) with p(cannabis|psychosis)
Figuring out directions (driving, walking, transit) is actually quite easy in most cities. My approach is to just lump specific places into general "areas", get familiar with how to get between areas (transit/driving options) by thinking about their absolute positions and connections that exist, and then for unfamiliar places, look it up on a map before leaving.

The only thing I miss with navigation is real-time traffic. Which, all things considered, is just a "nice to have".
If he lost why do Linux fakes microkernels with hypervisors and containers to start with?

Also Android has tamed Linux into a pseudo-microkernel with Project Treble, where all drivers are their own processes using Android IPC.

On Android traditional Linux drivers are considered "legacy" and kept around for compatibility with upstream and previous Android versions pre-Treble.

“…not comply…”.

(we may be forced)

It is a tri-state legalistic term: didn’t, forced to, complied with.
Well, in Russia it's the other way around - repeated pushes to legalize mj in Russia are seen as a way for USA to cripple Russian youngsters , making them disinterested in pursuing casual life goals - education, career and family. Go figure
Yeah, and it's a big if. Personally, I tried, and ended up having suicidal thoughts every time I exercised. With weed, that's not a problem.

If one has sorrows that need drowning, then the first step should be dealing with those issues and seek help if needed -- not trying cliché things that sound like they came from some mindfulness channel on Youtube.
Many people quit the hobby after starting with too small aquariums that are unstable by design, yep.
QNX is a microkernel and is used everywhere on embedded space, and it isn't the only one.

Excellent anecdata. If the effect is so striking, I wonder why it has so stubbornly eluded all the scientific studies seeking to find a causation? Could it be the case that the correlation you describe is caused by one or more "hidden variables"?
That's simply not true: Spanish Constitution do allow autonomous communities to organize referenda.

nit: Kubernetes is the container orchestration, not the container technology itself. So the comparison is apples vs. oranges.

You could replace the containers that are being scheduled by Kubernetes with WebAssembly. Others already linked to Krustlet which is effectively this.

My experience with remote work has been the opposite of this. My team is in a call for the day, and most of my time is spent collaborating with my coworkers. I find this experience to be far superior actually, as we can do things like: use our own drawing tablets at the same time, screenshare rather than look over shoulders, adjust volume for quiet speakers (huge for me), turn on closed captioning, mute chitchat when trying to focus, etc etc.
Most of phones you might be thinking is probably post-iPhone. Just couples but I used couple pre-iPhone smartphone OS and oh boy they sucked.

smoking sativa strains increase work performance for me and i know a lot of other dev how performing well while smoking cannabis in the office!

No, sorry, cannabis and caffeine are not the same. Not the underlying substances, not the internal biological changes, not the effects.

No one laughed out their brains after drinking a pot of coffee.

Pun intended.
How do you know when this guy's stage 1 cancer would become a stage 4 without treatment so that you can line up the data series?

Maybe it's stage 1 because you got lucky and saw it early. Maybe it's stage 1 because it grows really slowly and will be stage 1 still in 5 years.

Only way you could know is to not treat and watch what happens... Everything else is a fudge.

Yes. Also being a little slow at work. So I'm curious as to what the article means by "persistence": if it's 45 minutes or 45 years.
Additionally macOS is going further down this path by moving kernel extensions into userspace.
I want a simple life where I program and run programs. I don't want to fight layer after layer of abstraction, some of which will inevitably impair my programs (i.e. by not allowing me to use SIMD or access the graphics coprocessor) and multiply tenfold my expenditure in cloud services.

If you think I'm exaggerating, try to configure a GPU passwover to a virtual machine. It is doable, in your server in your garage, after you spend a considerable amount of hours of your life. In your cloud deployment? Only if you use Google or AWS, and even then, only for a price.

Please, call the Spanish Inquisition, this guy needs to be prosecuted before he gathers a coven and gets away with this perversion.
Life is too short to waste distracted by a smartphone. I prefer to use a the large screen and keyboard of a laptop for communication. I am still using a 2G phone with a B&W display for emergencies, for example if I get lost or held up meeting friends. Even then I'll have discussed a contingency with them - the old-fashioned way. I pay next to nothing to keep the account open, and the tap-texting naturally limits my desire to use it for more. Rue the day that GSM is shut down. I also have some text alerts set up from a script running at home to let me know about urgent things.
That is patently false. In the last election https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2021_Catalan_regional_election , Ciutadans got just 5.6% of the vote, and, quoting Wikipedia,

> Pro-independence parties gained a majority of the votes for the first time in an election and increased their parliamentary majority

You might be thinking about the 2017 election, but even then, the fact that Ciutadans had the most votes had to do with the pro-independence parties being split.

Personally, I don't think ads should consider any information other than what products a user has already bought or looked at.

Whether they should be allowed to collect and consider other information is of course a different question.
so your saying if i can install a dep package on Chromebook its not Linux? very confusing.... what makes it not Linux? what makes GNOME,KDE or all the other DE's Linux? is Steam Deck Linux?

anything using the Linux Kernel === Linux....

i guess we need to tell NASA they didn't use Linux in Perseverance .... i mean its not a "typical distro" like you say.
Yes, there is a plenty and most are non-invasive.

Unfortunately, a lot of research is focused on children and and not a lot of things are being tested (due to safety of children research I presume), however this start to change and more adult-based reasearch is being made. While there is no golden bullet most of the proposed changes are non-intrusive.

What we're doing is changing our diet foremost. More Omega-3 acids, shifting toward protein diet and supplementing magnesium and vitamin D. We put a bowl with a lot of nuts (and small bits of chocolate) and it's disappearing astoundingly fast (we were eating nuts before, but by making it more accessible it's just "the stack" and because there are like 8 varietes in the bowls + chocolate chips no one complains about it being bland). ADD/ADHD has a lot of comorbidity with gut issues, so fibre is important too.

And there is more and more and more. Making sure that physical activity is present (as it's great dopamine booster), keeping track of sleep patterns (sleep deprivation is common as many ADD/ADHD are light sleepers), recognizing activities with hypnosis like effects, so to not get too drawn in and so on.

But in the end there's a lot of knowledge that is power itself. ADD/ADHD has ~70% (lately I heard 76% figure from one doctor) transmissibility, and thus being able to work with it better makes for better family life and parenthood. Family member had a burst of anger this year during Christmas like pretty much every year prior. Few years back? Everyone were scared of escalation and sat in silence for 2 days. This year - everyone shrugged it off as a brain explosion and we went on with holiday celebrations.

I would really recommend getting tested if you just as suspect that you or those close to you might be affected by ADHD. ADD/ADHD in adults (and women!) is somewhat new discipline so it might be hard to check oneself out (especially since in some countries it's trivialized by general practitioners as a simple gateway towards stimulants). Worst case you spend some money but the best case you get a portal to a wealth of self knowledge.
It sure does. Use a browser or other web client that does not trust certificates unless they appear in CT logs. A rouge CA then has to lie publicly by putting the false cert into the log, which in turn gets flagged and they don't get to be a CA anymore.
