definist fallacy or persuasive definition, not sure which argumentative trickery you are using right there with your selected definition of conspiracy theory critique.

what is more straight to see is that you've just made a false attribution by distorting what I wrote about close to zero chances of a blow up. I don't question your intention and honesty, but read my comment more carefully, or quote verbatim without distortion, and resist the use of fallacies in general if you would like to engage in honest and fair argumentative discution.

planned obsolescence was a well kept from public industrial scheme, decided by a small group, screwing billions of consumers. it isn't a secret anymore, it blew up, it took several decades to blow up, kept being refuted by some who haven't caught up with the evidences.

and if you accept the JFK case then I suppose you are admitting to beleive in some conspiracies, while at the same time refuting the concept while it's enduring its long process of battle against deniers, during the inevitable period of evidences remaining arguably to few or too weak, simplifications of reality.
consider at least accepting there is some contradiction this logic.

I just moved my family to outlook.com, Office 365 Family allows up to 6 people for $99/yr (total), and supports custom domains.

If you have 6 people like I do, that's about $1.38/person/month vs the $6/person/month that GSuite wants.
I did some digging to try to find out. I found the owner's (well, registrant's) house, and it was reasonably average for someone flying their own private jet.
Does your company explicitly state this criteria in the job description?
Considering the other things we rely on, does it?
What's funny about this list is how much of it amounts to a few companies -- ThinkPenguin, Libiquity, and Technoethical -- rebranding commodity hardware like Atheros wireless cards. There's nothing unique about this hardware which makes it more "free" than any other off-the-shelf Atheros cards, and the drivers were open-source long before any of these companies got involved.
What are the reasons traditional ovens have such a wide band here? It seems like with modern technology one ought to be able to cut that down a bit. Is it just physically infeasible based on the size of the space to be heated? Or is it tremendous cost pressure for consumer goods? Or something else?
> What I'm looking for in games today is definitely the opposite. Maximum quality that lasts a weekend at most and then I can move on in life.

Try a board game! Seems like a great fit for what you want.
what's the point in a dowser that's wrong often? isn't that like having a "slightly better than chance" super power? ie, can't fly but can jump higher than average (some times)
No, the article says “a complaint will be filed”.

When the government charges someone with a crime and someone asks “whats the other side”, do you say the same thing?

This would go to trial if not settled. Only then would the labor boards decision be based on an actual weighing of all evidence.
> Don't just do a subjective taste test

That seems like a silly prohibition. The taste is kind of the whole point; if one prefers the taste of "sear then cook" over "cook then sear", then great. Whatever floats your boat. So what if the presentation doesn't meet some arbitrary standard? Unless you're cooking for Gordon Ramsay or something like that, hardly anyone's gonna care, 'cause steak is steak and - barring being burnt to a crisp - will be delicious all the same.
Circular dependency?
5 a month would probably get you only some limited amount of searches. It’s currently looking like a plan with generous searches would be $20 and pay per use after.
Yeah, easy, all you have to do is rewrite WordPress in JavaScript. Now instead of worrying about malware in plugins, you can worry about malware in plugins and your npm dependencies!

Lets see what Cook My Meat says about it

http://up.csail.mit.edu/science-of-cooking/

3cm Steak starts at 72°F
250°F and 250°F for 20:00
72°F and 300°F for 4:00
300°F and 72°F for 4:00
72°F and 72°F for 5:00

Prior to searing, 250F at a 3cm thick steak takes 17 minutes to get to an internal temperature of 200°F.

The transition from medium to well at the innermost part takes place at just over 10m when cooking at 250°F for the 3cm steak.

If, however, the steak is 5cm thick, that the 115°F in the inner part isn't until 16m.

Your method may need to be adjusted for the size of the cut, though if you're ordering the same thing it probably does work for you.
> having that run on a datacenter near the user

This is the biggest deal IMHO. FaaS in CDN edge DCs are remarkably fast and affordable. If you can respond to an API call faster than a request can get through to a load balancer, you're providing quite a UX improvement regardless of cost. For most people running stateful apps this requires some large tradeoffs in the form of the data layer, but they are getting more reasonable over time. In the case of CloudFlare which may have the strongest edge function hosting now, it used to only support its Worker KV data store (fast but KV only and globally eventually consistent ~10 secs). More recently they have added support for fast connections to their R2 (S3-like) service, and now they have a new service that can proxy to MySQL and Postgres databases.

Its an exciting space, because its not just about CDNs: as 5G towers are rolling out, they are building in edge compute clusters along with them. So now you have a 5G iPhone with faster single-threaded performance than your desktop able to get 1Gbps down and faster response times because of its path to edge compute. ISPs are also getting in the game:

The fed does indeed sometime draw in money and park it (to be used the next time they need to increase the money supply, in a sense)

It's also the case that money velocity can always slow to a crawl. If it reaches a point where people figure they are more likely to keep value by just holding the money instead of investing it into something due to falling asset values, that can overcome even the desire to beat inflation. It's all very situational, but sometimes money doesn't get invested, or at least the rate at which it changes hands slows down due to a lack of good investments in the system.
TL;DR: It is a JAMStack-style static site, which we publish with the Middleman static site editor.

However, there's a lot more to it than that, and it's always actively evolving.

There's not currently a page which summarizes the architecture, but there are multiple pages and docs which are focused on processes around editing and maintaining the site. Here is a link which is a good starting point to see what's under the covers and how we use it: https://about.gitlab.com/handbook/git-page-update/#11-start-...

LOL. As soon as I clicked on the dragon an extremely loud sound effect launched and my girlfriend said "I thought you were working" and I told her I was working on some "dragon drop" code, but she didn't buy it.
There was already a 'MiniShift' version of OpenShift, so the name makes some sense. Not that RedHat has been consistent with naming this product generally, what with RedShift, OKD, OpenShift, etc.
Not to mention the enormous Shoreline Amphitheater literally right next door to Google!
The idea that every session would be interesting in some way. If done right, it shouldn't be a mindless chore.
I went to Costco a couple days ago with the intent of getting some ribeyes, but they were even more expensive than filets if I'm remembering correctly. Probably one of the first times in my post-college life I've balked at the price of a grocery store item. I got a package of tri-tip steaks twice as large for a bit less, and they were delicious.
Raw Bluray images are insanely large and unless you absolutely _must_ have that quality, you probably want to transcode them. A single movie comes out to 30GB-80GB while you could drop it to 4GB and not notice any difference likely.
I sort of doubt it... I didn't receive any notification, and I'd been active since 2013.
I'm admittedly very uninformed when it comes to Argentina, but the point is that tracking down the entity that is paying cash for coins cannot be that difficult. Even the most inept governments in the world typically become very efficient when it comes to money.
Skyscrapers are disproportionately tall for their width. This leads to the mentioned lateral movement issues discussed. The great pyramid of Giza does not have such issues due to its literal pyramidic shape with its wide base.
It would seem to me, purely based on common sense, that skyscrapers are unnecessarily tippy and flexy due to the bizarre interest in making a thin needle-like building with a small base section.

Why would we not consider simply making tall buildings proportionally wide instead of this obviously flawed tippy needle thingy?

Problems with tippy needles include: foundations and their connections to bedrock, simple physical fulcrum principles, and the obvious inability to spread forces over a larger area. It’s a bit like trying to hold a large Christmas tree up with a small stand with low mass… doomed to problems
Owning a library is not so that you’ve read every book In collection, but it’s a research area where you can spend time to read new books. Some of the books in your library may never get read, and that’s ok because they’re always close at hand if you need it.
It was delightful to watch him create a Wordle clone with a simple html file coupled with one js file in plain sublime text editor and chrome debugger hacking :D

No complex modules installation or initialisation setup.
After having seen the JS complexity grow to from simple jquery stuff to download a whole lot of stuff to just get started creating a simple webpage, I personally found this simplicity absolutely delightful and inspiring. Ended up creating a simple world clone in a couple of hours and quite enjoyed the whole simplicity of it all :D
There's no need to go truly production grade initially. I run some projects in production on single node deployments (with Nomad, Vault, and Consul all on one node, i.e. bootstrap_expect = 1) and it's solid. The hardware specs required are no different than if you were to just use systemd to run everything.

The beauty with HashiStack is you don't need to go fully monty. There's also no need to use ACLs which I agree adds a lot of unnecessary complexity if you're only at the MVP phase or doing things solo/in a small team. And you can run everything on a Digital Ocean $10/mo droplet -- it's very lightweight. I even have one HashiStack deployed on a Raspberry Pi running Home Assistant and other ancillary wares and it works great. But there's always the path to building a proper cluster if you need the redundancy.

I'm very bullish on HashiCorp. They can do a much better job though of communicating that not every deployment needs to be enterprise-grade and offer better ways of bootstrapping the type of cluster that fits your needs. I think a lot of that messaging gets lost due to their ongoing war with Kubernetes and what large companies are looking for.
I had completely given up on torrenting anything and signed up for subscription services which had worked really well for years, but now I'm experiencing that so little content is available on any one service so you just can't subscribe once and see it all. I went back to torrenting this year when something I was in the middle of watching vanishes due to some corporate restructure from the streaming platform.
SelfControl app [0]. Give it a list of sites you wish to block, email providers, etc, and it's a bit of a pain to work around unless you really know MacOS networking deeply or cheat and search for it. You can increase the block length time with some quick tweaks.

Use the Accessibility Color Filters to make your machine greyscale. Works fine. Reduces brightly colored distractions.

But... really, read Cal Newport's stuff on Deep Work and stop using a computer for a lot of those tasks.

Hiding the dock is very helpful for me. You can also use DND or simply close applications like Mail to avoid distractions.

Using apps in full screen mode helps also. I use spaces for web browsing, communications, writing, etc. so that I'm not constantly bombarded by irrelevant windows.

Isn't all of that on ubuntu?

Have you tried blocking software and websites?
Transcoding is a separate process from DRM removal
The path to redundancy is there if you need it but it's not something you have to go with from the start. You can also run a database with replicas to handle any drive failures, etc. I have been running a production-grade system with thousands of customers like this for a few years.
Nobody wants to live or work on the inside. People like windows and natural light. There's a premium on having a high surface-to-volume ratio.
Right, that's my point. It wasn't meant to be all that. Maybe we aren't at the point where we can have all that with two click installs.
It's really not US only phenomenon. The numbers are different in Europe but definitely higher than other professional jobs. Doctors earn more but software engineers usually earn at least x2 a country's average salary.
Its actually from Scrimba which doesn't from some reason get as much attention. FCF just reposted the course under their brand as they have a partnerships. Not nitpicking, just think Scrimba is awesome and more people should know about it.
There you go.

I have already told them to just ignore them for a long time if they hate NFTs so much, yet they are finding it difficult to do that.

Given that you will find Twitter users with ‘hexagon’ profile pictures, its going to get much harder for them to ignore them. Twitter themselves don’t care about their extreme ‘grief’ with NFTs.

At this point, they might as well delete their Twitter accounts and move to Mastodon, where there are no hexagon profile pictures.

There was a (non-peer reviewed) paper that was posted to HN that demonstrated a correlation between Covid spike protein levels in the blood and myocarditis, whether that be from vaccine or from infection. You’re probably right but I don’t think we would ever really know
Yes. That's how they control the money supply via Open Market Operations. They either print money from thin air to buy US Treasuries, or they sell US Treasuries and pocket the money received. The money they pocket basically ceases to exist as far as the productive economy is concerned.
How does one GPU acceleration when running on a VM (as I imagine QEMU is doing here)?

Also random thought, but can the opposite be achieved? That is, installing Orbis (PS4 OS, based on FreeBSD) on generic PC hardware?
> But until then, repeated boosters seem like the answer

I think this sort of group think mentality is increasingly detrimental.

I keep hearing that “we need to boost” without people really weighing up the nuances and tradeoffs for such a policy.

The reality is Israel has shown that second boosters don’t really improve immunity all that much [1]

That vaccine induced myocarditis rates are now higher than covid induced rates [2]

That healthy people statistically are less likely to have serious disease, especially so if they have had primary vaccination and that modelling suggests that the omicron wave in the west will be on the downtrend, following the UK, shortly. Inferring that most people will have been exposed to the virus and built their own immunity [3].

So given this information, and considering I had an adverse reaction from my vaccination, why would I listen to this idea that “boosters are the answer” when there is mounting evidence everywhere that this maybe isn't a good idea for everyone?

We need to shake this idea that they are the only sensible answer because they have had real costs for some people.

Just like nuclear fusion they're trying to get to break even.
Good point, I wonder if light shafts ameliorate that sufficiently, or altered internal topologies, like cutouts
> If this is possible, then device makers should do it, ship the free-software firmware on the device, and then get it RYF-certified. No blobs needed, ROM or otherwise! Problem solved!

The device maker could ship with programmable proprietary firmware and have the possibility of being RYF-certified in the future if someone writes free firmware. Or they could ship with proprietary firmware in ROM and be guaranteed RYF certification immediately. The rules encourage them to pick the second option, and it's no surprise that companies such as Purism have done so.

Yet that option is never better for user freedom, since making software un-upgradeable does not make it any more free. And occasionally it is worse, in the event free firmware becomes available later on.

> You can separate the controller/receiver and the transmitter, and only lock up/restrict the transmitter part.

Unfortunately this isn't quite enough for compliance, because of stuff like DFS channels/radar detection.

> Alternatively, you can implement the restriction at the hardware level if feasible

Not super feasible, and --- inability to update/fix bugs isn't a feature.
Wondering the same. I really enjoyed that book.
Wagtail requires tens of hours of development to achieve WordPress's stock functionality, and there are very few plugins.
This second price is obvious for anyone who has downloaded a Gb worth of classic eBooks and realised their life is not long enough to read through them all.
Both times I've had a Covid vaccination I've been bed-ridden for three days, with high fever, weakness, chills. This was after having Covid four months earlier.

I'm not getting a booster. I think at this point the effect will be worse than Covid itself. I'm not going to make myself that sick on a yearly basis, indefinitely ongoing. At a certain point the damage it does to me is worse than the damage it prevents.

Just to emphasize: I'm pro-vax. But the furor over the boosters seems frantic and irrational.
That's a cool idea that I hadn't thought about. It would be interesting if the military ended up using superdracos for propulsive landing even though NASA doesn't.
Yes, install Ubuntu. On a Mac, even if I turn off Messages, messages still come through[1]. In addition, non-stop reminders or calendar items or upgrade messages that I try to dismiss but keep coming back.

In Ubuntu, you will need to turn off their App Store equivalent, then nothing else disturbs me when I don't want it.

Meanwhile, Windows 10 actively tries to sabotoge your life.

Also, try a Raspberry Pi. Most websites are so painfully slow that is it's not feasible to use, plus Pi should be enough for most coding.

[1] Need to turn Messages off in notifications, but there are times I do want to be notified - major pain keep having to go into settings instead of just turn on or off the app.
Thank you. I had not head of Redshell, and I thought that you were referring to features being removed. I'll now be very wary to see if spyware like this is installed again.

humor me: what are the most critical pieces of internet infrastructure?

i think i agree with you but then started to think that huge whole parts of the Internet may not qualify by your definition.
What if we think of libraries and dependencies in a different way?

For instance: dependencies would be at the granularity of a single function or data type. And when you take a dependency, in your editing environment it would look just like your code and fit right in, maybe even with your preferred autoformatted style. The editor would realize that the function has an external author, and could git-pull new changes in, or you could fork the function (and maybe some merges would conflict).

The advantage is that the code would feel a lot tighter and less mysterious, though still allow collaborative development.

Rust isn't way off here. It already does a lot of tracking of individual functions during the compilation process, and docs.rs already provides quick access to a lot of source code for dependencies. Closing the last few gaps to make it feel like part of your program, rather than outside magic, could be awesome.
That's interesting! He was definitely playing an antagonistic character ("I have a bad ear", "I can't hear you" whenever someone said something disagreeable; one person didn't get it and kept repeating their sentence more loudly to no change). I could imagine him having that more liberal private stance whilst keeping the public one consistently firm.
The point is that there are many relatively straightforward ways to calculate curvature, from the sunrise/sunset technique to Erastothenes to watching sailing ships dip below the horizon and many more.

The math may be beyond some people but the effects at play cannot be explained by a flat Earth.

Part of the overall thread was along the lines of we should respect flat earthers, they improve rigour. It seems to me that the only sensible responses to that are the counter illustrations of just easily disproved a notion it is.

Far more effort goes into supporting this ridiculousness than did into establishing rough shape and size.
I am not sure what iMac has to do with it?

We spend a lot of our time working, enough to affect our general state of mind. A lot of people in a high demand occupation would sacrifice a high salary for happier conditions.
We seem to have come full circle with this "embrace failure" mantra. We now simply redefine small setbacks and inconveniences as "failure".

I attended an event put on by FailCon a few years ago. Every one of the speakers' "failures" was a humble brag about ow they bounced back from failure to achieve massive success. One speaker's failure was that he had to sell his company for only $90M.

The conference was a celebration of successful failures. I had fun, but it left a bad taste in my mouth.

Here's the thing. Real failure sucks. People you considered your friends stop returning calls. Doors close to you. You feel empty and lost. You can learn from it, but you can't celebrate it. Failure hurts. And that's OK. It's supposed to hurt.

If you can fail at something and it doesn't hurt, your heart really wasn't in it.
