My intention is not to argue that the usage is inappropriate. Sure, it's probably obvious from my post that I think it is, but that's not the argument I was trying to make. And I'm certainly not trying to silence anyone (as the other replier pointed out one should not) because of their word choice. I didn't downvote/flag any of what I'm replying to.

The argument I'm trying to make is first that it's not arbitrary to question the use of this word but not "kill" or other violent words. There is a distinction because of the specificity and linguistic contexts in which the word is used.

And second that because it's not arbitrary, the complaints from survivors are also not arbitrary and should be considered--not taken as absolute unassailable truth, but considered.

For comparison, I can imagine those who lost loved ones in the infamous Air France Flight 447 might be upset to be reminded of Air France. But Air France is a 10+ billion euro company operating hundreds if not thousands of flights per day. It is stunningly rare that "Air France" is used to refer to that accident and on balance, I think most would conclude Air France is of positive or neutral impact to the world. I would be quite suspect of an argument that "Air France" is inappropriate language.

On the other extreme you have a term like "Holocaust" which effectively has no other meaning or usage than a reference to that genocide.

Now you may conclude that no usage of any word is inherently inappropriate, and if that's the case, we're simply at an impasse, and I'm fine with that. I won't try to stop you or change your mind. But for most people, I think there is a point where the triviality of the use and the severity of the word add up to inappropriateness.

It's not clear-cut. You'd probably be hard pressed to find anyone genuinely bothered by "killing" a process. But you also won't find too many people who would defend say... being kicked out of a bar for causing a drunken fight being described as being persecuted like in the Holocaust. There's a spectrum.

So my point is just this... there are some logical reasons why many people consider a usage like this article on the inappropriate side of the spectrum. We can at least acknowledge that and recognize that there's a legitimate judgment call to be made here. We aren't in "killing a process" territory. And we certainly aren't in arbitrary word policing because we happen to be bothered by it territory.

Unless of course you fundamentally disagree that any metaphor could be inappropriate because of the thing which is alluded to in the metaphor. In which case we're just starting from different fundamental assumptions, which is fine. I'm not trying to challenge anyone's values.

I'll end here. There are obviously legitimate grievances in the article regardless of the word choice in titling it, and I've done enough to derail the discussion of those already. For that, I apologize.

ReactJS is certainly worth learning. I personally use the Clone Wars on GitHub as my instruction manual when I'm not sure how to accomplish something with React and I want to see how it could be built in the real world.
Despite the email only mentioning German electricity prices we got it for a Finland server. 5.8% increase.
i am not denying that it was front and center, i am just saying this "the military created it" story that gets reurgitated endlessly is a very oversimplified explanation that downplays the involvement of many civilian and global actors in favor of a story of militaristic mysticism and american nationalism. The internet is not packet switching, even if it mostly uses packet switching and the internet is not a network of radars either and while RAND surely was military-industrial complex, it did not create the internet. Sure the DoD was always strongly involved, but claiming the ARPANET is the predecessor of the internet is like claiming i had one grandparent, while in truth i had four. The ARPANET sure was about networking, but not about global internetworking, even if it became one of the internetworked networks, and it sure did not care about global commerce and people sharing videos of their cats either. Last time i checked the military did not network yemen into the global communication network, they bombed them out of it (scnr). I am not saying that the US military did not invest heavily in computer networks and financed a lot of the science and technology, they surely did, but they did not create the internet. It is like saying Bill Gates became a billionaire by founding a company in his garage and working really hard, it is not entirely wrong, but it kind of misses a lot of rather important details to instead make an inspirational story filled with survivorship bias and american dreams.
I was going to say the same as you did: SCOTUS may very well make the legality of abortion a state-controlled issue, so that's definitely at risk in Ohio.
Pointer provenance is more complex and subtle.
Although I had read him, I did not have a Bukowski "phase" that many do. I was introduced to him by a man who had worked for the United States Postal Service, which he frequently derided. He said to me, "If you want to find someone who hates the Postal Service more than I do, check this out ..."

Well, I did, and read other things, and eventually began to recognize his contribution to culture, which is kind of a last step before my awareness of a particular author might fade, the way "The Copulating Mermaid of Venice, California" turns up in the concept for the Tom Petty video for "Mary Jane's Last Dance," and so on; I recognize, nod, and forget. I hadn't thought about him in years until I stumbled across "The Laughing Heart" as I was in a late night fit of hating my job. A part went "... be on the watch. the gods will offer you chances," which struck me as a kind of admonition. It was one I took to heart, because a "chance" happened not long after and I, in a rare fit of boldness, took it.

Some of his short stories stood out, the fantastical ones, and of course the poetry. The poetry here is just ... well, one can imagine the early transporters in the Trek universe not working particularly well. Something emerges at the other end, it has a similar shape to it but doesn't quite fit together well enough, and you're left with something you hope will die on its own before it realizes what has happened to it. The "vulgar poem" sample is like that, some kind of tortured Bukowski clone flopped out of a steaming vat, bleated an unnatural sound, and then you don't know if you're crushing its head out of mercy or disgust, but you'd rather not have that happen again.

And the article provides a handy index of avoiding such abominations, to boot!
Wow, this was an eye-opening read on my trust with ISO C.

It makes much more understandable why linux codebase is riddled with compiler extensions, ISO C is simply not reliable anymore.

The issue is bigger than what trembles on the surface, just like Dennis Ritchie said, it is a timebomb, soon enough these nuances will burst into a big issue in linux kernel, or worse yet, some essential system like avionics.
Wow. I used to go to the mindfulness retreats at his affiliated monastery in San Diego. You left your phone in your car, and had 3-5 days (or more sometimes) of meditation, fresh cooked meals, and nature. It was really peaceful, and so different from what I had expected (something like a cult, being plied for donations etc. there was none of that). I stopped going when I left California, but it's hard to feel much more free than that these days. You're on a schedule for sleep, meals and events, basically making no decisions, and without internet pulling your attention, you feel like your mind is coming back to yourself.
You can't even run unsigned apps on your M1. There is linux support slowly coming thanks to the fine folks on Asahi, but it is very pre-beta.
This as opposed to cross-platform? Any general use case or for a targets Windows user base?
You think UCLA, USC, and UCSD are second tier? Last I checked, UCSD is #9 for engineering in the nation, which is above UIUC at #10. USC is #12 and UCLA is #16 relative to Columbia at #15, John Hopkins at #17, Harvard at #21, Princeton at #22, and UW at #22.

What on earth do you mean by second tier?
What audit has checkboxes for 'do you require approval from multiple people for basic profile manipulation of highly targeted users?' I've never seen one on any security compliance that I was apart of, and the reason being is that this is so specific to Twitter and very few other companies. Every product will end up being like this -- their own domain and product offering will create their own checkboxes that simply don't apply to the vast majority of other companies.
"UX" is mostly just the new "sexy" term for UI. Look how many UI designers there used to be; now they're (almost) all "UX designers".
We're making our headset with extremely high pixel density[1] specifically to combat against eye strain. This is really important for office work, which involves reading lots of fine text and icons. We also have special rendering in place which is optimized specifically for text crispness.

No tool will cover 100% of backlinks. Ahrefs is the most comprehensive. Majestic, Moz and SEMrush are the other most common backlink tools. Link Research Tools is maybe an also ran, but is way pricier and doesn't seem as comprehensive.
I guess the way is to verify and check the model over the coming years against the open data which initiated it... so we'll see :) these things can get quite chaotic when taking externalities into account.
The R&D fab(s) definitely have a high number of PhDs. I don't know about the production fabs. PhDs will definitely visit when starting up a new fab or process or when issues need to be addressed.
Well it depends on the laws of each country. In my country (Greece) a digitally signed document is acceptable everywhere at least in the public sector. Actually it's illegal for a public servant to deny a digitally signed document!

No professional service is really needed to sign a document; it all depends on the acceptance of the certificate you use for signing by your government/laws. I.e you may need to buy a certificate from a trusted organization or you may need to generate a certificate from a public sector organization of your country.
I'm a fan of Hack, but I guess that its development has ended by now.

JBM is one of the better monospace fonts, and Iosevka looks interesting, with all the options to configure it, but I kinda shy away from the need to customize most of the characters, let alone install npm just to build a font.
Why not compile at -O0? That gives you everything that you want today, including no register allocation.
It's not so much about 'intent'. The spec simply says this operation is undefined behavior. You could have a compiler that you could somehow inform "please just define this behavior as reading whatever is in memory there". But that supports the original point of the article, that plain ISO C is not suitable for OS programming.
I understand that you want a paper book, but just to be safe: have you already seen https://beta.reactjs.org/learn? It’s really good.
I guess the Chicago police murdering black communists fits too, although I hadn’t thought of that initially.
Few reasons (US Centric)

1. Court Houses are not everywhere like Postal offices

2. Court houses are not part of the Executive Branch, where as a Service like the Postal Service or banking would need to be part of the Executive Branch, not Judicial. A Better counter would be DMV or some other government service.

3. Court Houses are not nearly as accessible and are much harder to get in and out of due to their nature. Not consumer friendly

4. Court Houses by the nature have alot of criminals going in and out of them all the time, probably a bad idea to put money services in the same place....

for the record I do not support the idea of USPS being a bank either.
His books helped me through some of my toughest times, especially “No mud, no lotus” and “Work”. He’s had a big influence on me and I hoped to meet him at some point. I’m teary eyed and sad to hear this. He lived a beautiful life and was a bright light in our world.
I follow him on YT. His videos have an amazing aesthetics, and the tech content displayed is simple mind blogging to me as a non-tech person.
When I was growing up the rumor was that both sides had enough nukes to destroy the entire earth 10x over. I have no idea whether that is even close to true but at that point every city is a target because, why not?

> Like IPv6 blacklists operating at the /64 level or higher

Several blocklists I'm aware of block at /48s, not at /64s, on the basis that customer allocations (per the spec) are supposed to be /48s.

Not enough people use IPv6 right now, so the level of complaints from this is low->zero.
>represent guides

According to the sculptor.

What may they represent guides for? Perhaps some prominent expeditions Roosevelt was famous for that were critical in establishing the museum?
A few things, some that are pretty general, and some that are pretty specific to my situation.

1. Family in general plays a large role.

2. I'm able to make stronger financial moves. Property is appreciating relatively quickly in the Columbus area, and purchase-cost-to-rent ratios are better here, from the investor PoV.

3. Full remote means that I'm still able to visit Seattle for the larger mountaineering trips, etc. that I like to take part in while being based out of a lower-CoL area. After several years, I was going to have to start taking flights to new destinations, anyway.

4. Opportunity to give back to the communities that gave me my start.

And some other factors come in, too. Covid definitely reduced my perceived benefit of living in Seattle. Nothing's forever though. It's a two-way door.
Thinking in continuous terms, it would be infinite and inversely proportional to distance squared. But thinking in terms of a distortion in space-time and also considering that it may be quantized, perhaps there is some limit. Also for points that are separating faster than the speed of light due to inflation gravity couldn't alter that space.
Good point. I think I go that far back too or there about.

I don't think it's the money that bothers me. I just don't trust what I commit to in Google land will be around in five year's time....and I also didn't 'buy' into workspace, just email with custom domain.

It all feels a bit like being part of someone else's experiment :-)
They're sending the same email + a price increase for Finland servers too.
I also know directly from people running state DMV offices (and also coincidentally or not, in the official GOP power structure) that there was a serious effort for drivers licenses from all states to be more standardized and validated by the process that became RealID.

This was around 1995-7, so 9/11 had zero infuence on the origin of this idea, although it likely helped provide justification for it.

That said, I find it mildly interesting that it took at least two decades to even begin to roll out from serious discussions in the corridors of power to actual changes affecting the drivers and voters.
> just proves your lack of knowledge

Tone is not needed.

For TamaGo, it seems to allow developers run their application, not build an OS on the hardware. But I have not played with it, you are right.

> TamaGo is a framework that enables compilation and execution of unencumbered Go applications on bare metal

The environment does not seem to allow building a generic operating system [1]. F-Secure ported the runtime itself to boot natively. But please correct me.

> There is no thread support

The environment you run in is specifically curated for Go applications, such as the memory layout. I'd call this an "appliance" rather than enabling Go to be used for full-fledged generic operating system implementations.

Might be a little bit off topic, but it blows my mind how functionally the office suite is unchanged for the past 30 years especially including how slow it runs. It's like there is this baked in knowledge that these apps have always been pretty slow and crappy in that regard, and since there is apparently no expectation from the paying customers that it won't ever be slow nor is there any competition (my workplace along with plenty of other enterprise customers will never not pay for both gsuite and ms office just because that's what they always blow money on), there's no pressure to make things performant. I wish I could degrade my workplace office 365 license into a windows XP era version of office. That would absolutely fly on modern hardware.
It's funny that you would consider some college volunteer activity as precedent for a real judge in a real court in a real lawsuit between real corporations. Insert eyeroll emoji here.
IPv6 isn't that different than IPv4. Neighbor Discovery is just ARP. Not having in-path fragmentation and loads of other IPv4 legacy crap is a good thing.

The only major change is that instead of the smallest routeable unit being a single address the smallest unit is now a whole 64 bit subnet so hosts have a bunch of bits they can use for various purposes. Network administrators don't have to worry about that for the most part, the hosts figure that out on their own.

I guess there might be a security implication if someone has built their security system around knowing everything on the network via DHCP. But that was always a mistake. If you want real security you need to use 802.1x or similar. Being told you can't use DHCP to secure your network anymore is probably shock to some admins, but hopefully they take the opportunity to reconsider their system from the ground up.
> Who is he supposed to be performing for?

Totally off topic but this sentence of yours perfectly sums up my mental state currently. Being a technologist, I believed tech could solve everything and thing and dedicated my life to it. This was when I was a teenager teaching myself to code 10-12 years ago. Back then tech wasn’t mainstream and geeks weren’t cool.

But now, tech is the new wallstreet and a tsunami of people are hitting its shores every year. I’m not sure what I can bring to the table. I’ve learnt a lot of computer science just for the fun of it. I don’t think I’ll ever use most of that knowledge.

I’m in this weird state where I know how amazing technology can be but at the same time I don’t really have much to contribute to it. Sure, I could set myself up for some big moonshots. But for what? I haven’t found happiness or satisfaction in all this while. I’m not sure if it’ll ever come. I can certainly distract myself with a lot of challenges to keep me from contemplating suicide. Or I could smoke weed. No difference really. No reason to squeeze out all you’ve got just to hit some random performance metrics or criteria.
Why not use the UNIX idea of composability and relegate all the JSON construction to another tool, e.g `jo`:

$ jo query="six times nine" answer=42 | curl --json -
Sending JSON...
{"query":"six times nine","answer":42}
So it was believed that S3 is deprecated on TGL, but it probably works. I remember reading about it on some coreboot channels. Starlabs may have enabled it. Grep for S3 on https://support.starlabs.systems/kb/bios-and-firmware/bios-a...
that's kinda fascinating, what's an example
Sounds wonderful. I recently moved to San Diego and will certainly be checking out deer park monastery.
Author of the referenced repository, here. This content is pretty dated, but it's still been a helpful document for a number of folks. And I still reference it regularly.

If folks have questions, comments, or edits, please feel free to post here, submit an issue on Github, or submit a pull request.
I work at Veeam, our main product (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Veeam_Backup_%26_Replication) is a WPF desktop app. Some of the newer/smaller ones are web(react) based. UI is of course just a small part of all the stuff that goes in a large B2B/Enterprise app, but technically it's a desktop app.
Also, FWIW, we do subscription licensing, so I don't think it's a real dichotomy.
I think it's more about diversifying locations for labor pooling... Phoenix is growing and now going to have fabs for Intel, Samsung and TSMC. I think it's more about hedging or spreading out the labor pool a bit more and less competition.

As for location, in terms of shipping, they're probably about on par to each other. Not sure how stable it is regarding weather conditions, or natural disaster risk in Ohio vs Arizona though.

In either case, it's good to see some uptick in distributed manufacturing. Concentrating most high technology infrastructure into a relatively small region has proven a disaster when problems inevitably happen.
yeah, it's a good question.... it could be as much for marketing/recruiting hype as anything?
The bigger problem is that some of String Theory's few predictions have in fact been falsified. Supersymmetry has been predicted twice already, once at LHC energy levels and once before. Those predictions turned out wrong, but instead of abandoning the theory, it was easily tweaked to make a new prediction at a slightly higher energy level that LHC can predict.

The very fact that such tweaks can be made is a known problem with string theory as a component of physics.
Relative to economic output, not really. In absolute terms, yes, because the plants are massive and "facilities staff" misses a lot when you're talking about machines worth 150 million a piece, clean rooms, and billions in depreciation per year.
The first spiritual book I ever read was Being Peace at the age of 15. So, 28 years ago. And, that's what started it all for me. RIP, TNH.
what about a laser?
So you're saying maybe in the future there might be an issue?

Also plenty of people here want to ban abortion too. Tons of small counties have managed to prevent any kind of reproductive health clinics from opening or defacto forced them to close.
How do you turn off the engine on modern cars with a "START" button in stead of an old-fashioned metal-key ignition lock?

I used to repeat that line too, 25 years ago when I was still on Windows 3.x, but it's gotten a little old since then.
This explained pipewire pretty well to me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HxEXMHcwtlI

The short answer is that pipewire reimplements pulseaudio and jack, keeping compatability with both at the same time.
One thing to be aware of is that Bookchin explicitly rejected the anarchist label late in his life, and wrote several rants against his anarchist contemporaries being overly doctrinaire.

As for Python development, the hierarchy there is voluntary given that all participants are volunteers, and that the source is available for forking (and forming your own community around the fork). Such forks didn't happen in practice - or died quickly after being made, as with "Python 2.8" - because the benefits never outweighed the costs so far for most of the community.
