I'd like to do some hardware stuff as a hobby. Interacting with the real world is starting to sound a lot more fun than interacting with APIs.

The problem is that I'm not sure where to start. Software was easy -- I'd make some toy games, or write a script to automate something. Hardware is less obvious -- there's nothing physical that's immediately fun or automatable in my life.

Guix System uses Linux as its kernel, so no driver "is GNU", whatever that means.

The choice to use the Shepherd rather than systemd is motivated by a vision that we can get better integration using a single language and set of tools all the way down. As an example, this gave us services in containers several years ago:

https://guix.gnu.org/en/blog/2017/running-system-services-in...

Overall Guix System alone gives a coherent and unified view of the system; systemd also does that to some extent, but it's not in as good a position as Guix's declarative OS configuration to do that. For example, this is the kind of system exploration that Guix enables:

They (the US and UK, mostly) did the actually working version of that: they provided the Ukrainian military with several hundred Javelins, Stingers and NLAW.

The Ukrainian army can’t defend any part of the country against mass invasion but it can at least make the cost of fighting in cities be extremely unappetizing to Russia due to the large cost in both casualties and equipment it would be.

I read the entire linked article. This is not a neutral summary, and one should not "just go with it". The author is a psychiatrist, and he has a pretty clear bias: most of the words in the article are spent equivocating on severity, despite the author saying that he doesn't have the necessary background to judge:

I said built-in, you seem to have missed that part. SELinux is not built-in(though it is for certain distributions of Linux).

Security is hard to define, let alone prove. Everyone has a very different definition of security. So first one has to ask, secure from what?

I imagine most of the reason around BSD not on the official list(s) is because it's not as popular. I mean GenodeOS[0] is arguably one of the most secure OS's around these days, but I doubt you can find any public Govt support(by any govt) for running it in production today.

Going back to my original comment, security is complicated, and there is no "secure", but hopefully for a given set of security threats, there is a "secure enough".

The same exists in physical security. Our home door locks are notoriously not secure, but they are generally secure enough for most home needs. But your average home door lock would obviously be idiotic as protection for Fort Knox's gold deposit door.

Comparing BSD to Linux security is complicated, but for most high value targets, the answer probably is, run more than one OS. Root DNS servers and other highly critical internet infrastructure all do this as a matter of common practice. If you are mono-culture Linux only, I worry for your security, as you are effectively a single zero-day away from being owned. Linux, BSD, Windows, etc will all have RCE's and zero-days as a normal part of existing.

I feel like I agree with this in principle but the examples almost feel backwards to me. The bullet points under buying a house seems to be specifically about: 1) Overstretching your budget to buy bigger houses than you can afford, 2) Buying somewhere very remote where there are no job opportunities if you don't work remote, 3) Leisure options and friends are far away. None of these points are about buying a house itself as a decision (vs, renting).

Depending on your timing and location, renting is way more of a shoot-yourself-in-the-foot decision than buying a house. I graduated from college in mid-2000s and after a few years finally saved up to buy a house in early 2010s. Plenty of my peers saw no real need to this and continued renting through the decade of 2010-2020 while seeing home prices rise to unaffordable levels. I acknowledge that I got lucky in my timing and location (bay area), but it's hard to imagine a scenario where buying doesn't make sense when you can afford to. If nothing else, a (fixed rate) mortgage at least guarantees your monthly housing payment won't increase, vs rent. The decision to rent (as in, not being forced to rent because you cannot afford to buy) seems way more footgun-ish.

On the jobs section, the way most people choose jobs is insane, not by choice but more because it really is that hard and luck-based choosing a job. Over my career, I got to the "choose a random company whose recruiter just happened to reach out" point and landed a job, twice, and these both happen to be jobs I loved and stayed for a long time. Notably, another time, I moved to a company because I had a lot of friends working there so I knew I'd enjoy the people there, it didn't work out after a year and a half for other reasons than the people. The point of this all is, it's just really difficult to know what really matters at a job and company, so it's really hard to call this a footgun decision.

I've started noting sites that I trust when looking for reviews and recommendations and always go there first. If it's a site I'm unfamiliar with, I glance through the links. If they are all Amazon links I just move on without bothering to read any of their justifications.

Nearly all the time it's just crap talking about a product the "reviewer" hasn't even used, but has good reviews on Amazon or some other junk.

Empirically this is not true. https://twitter.com/LazyFishBarrel/ is not citing "a few CVE numbers over and over"; for example, in browsers, new code is disproportionately responsible for vulnerabilities. I know most of the people at the big tech companies doing the research into where the security problems in major C++ software come from; they're not making the results up.

Interesting dynamic ... I wonder what rules Twitter would claim it has broken.
I didn't flag this for being heretical; I flagged it for reducing confidence in public health measures. Am I certain everything I believe is true? No. Neither does the public health leadership. However, they are operating in good faith, with overall health in mind, and they aren't intentionally cloaking massive amounts of vaccine reactions with the goal of ... well, I'm not sure what. Yes, some vaccines have side effects, some of which are serious. But we've already determined almost certainly that they are overall safe enough to justify wide use.

A data scientist who is an ex-biologist who is quoting line doctors and cobbling bits of social media isn't some powerful truth-finder. They're just muddying the waters and making it harder for the public health establishment reduce mistrust.

I also don't think there is any interesting rational discussion that's going to come from posts like this since they don't rise to the level of scientific discussion.
I think this is one of the main reasons why Firefox keeps decreasing in popularity. They focus so much on activism instead of building a great browser. The best activism they could do is to improve Firefox so the Chrome market share decreases. After using Firefox for many years, I recently switched to Brave which has everything I wish in a browser(minus the Crypto stuff which you can disable).
Yeah, that's basically how I read into it. Or, more specifically, if the computer can't be held accountable, then those doing the holding get to decide who they think is responsible, and that might not end in your favor. In pithy terms, computers make poor scape-goats.

Given the context IBM operates in, that's probably what they are getting at.

> It's the 21st century and copyright is absolute nonsense.

This is an awful, terrible take. We know that intellectual property is much more artificial than pretty much every other type of property right, but we still want governments to enforce copyright and other IP law because it's a good way to make sure that people have a financial incentive to be creative or do R&D.

Copyright needs reform (and many types of DRM need to be banned), but just because you'd gladly sacrifice thousands of industries (how many jobs is that? millions?) to have some ideological purity, it doesn't mean that such a decision would be broadly supported or even in the best interest of society as a whole.

Source: work in copyright, have seen firsthand how shitty IP protections can destroy businesses that produce excellent content.
They take up chip fab capacity and that’s the bottleneck. The fact that it would be a custom die doesn’t really make a difference (and high level the features that go on the chip aren’t really all that different either, same stuff with various quantities and features tweaked)
Wouldn't it have been fine as a regular browser extension then? I assume it's only integrated into Firefox for revenue.
Upvoted, since although I disagree with the flag, I appreciate the specific criticism.

I don't think I agree that it's deliberately misleading. The graphic is used to argue against the statement that "Clinical trials have shown that the vaccines are highly effective ... against death". If these are indeed the trials that are being referred to, I don't think that data shows this. 3 Covid deaths versus 1 out of groups of 16,000 is compatible with being highly effective, but probably isn't statistically significant. Would you argue that this is sufficient evidence to claim that a vaccine is "highly effective"? Personally, I think they are highly effective, but I'd agree with the author that this particular study is not very good evidence of this.

I'm doubtful the graphic was intentionally blurred. I'd guess it's a screenshot of a screenshot type problem. The important numbers are visible if you look closely, and (atypically) links to the underlying data are helpfully provided at the bottom. Also, although it might not be immediately apparent, the graphic shows the results of two different trials. The top is Moderna, the bottom (which coincidentally also had about 16 deaths per group) is Pfizer (https://www.nejm.org/doi/full/10.1056/NEJMoa2110345). In that study, there are 2 Covid deaths for the placebo, and 1 for the vaccine.

Also, just for a sense of proportion, there were actually 2 suicide deaths in the Moderna study period, one in each group. In the Pfizer study, there don't appear to have been any suicides, but the 29 total deaths include some unhelpful causes of death including "Missing", "Unevaluable Event", and "Death"!

You are misrepresenting that quote. That comes after giving a fairly generic overview of both in which someone could form an opinion.

Good luck building special GPUs in just two years, especially with what's happening regarding chip production right now. Not sure how they could have achieved a project of this size/scope unless they use off-the-shelf components, since the backlogs are so long and have been for some time now.

So I have this factory that builds objects. Building an object requires $X of energy. Because of a temporary malfunction in the factory, a few of them required 10 times that amount of energy.

Are you saying that these selected objects that were built during the malfunction, and which are otherwise identical to all other objects produced in this factory, are more valuable because of that?

I must admit that it makes no sense to me.

I thought the best science was that those who had had covid were actually better off with the vaccination as well.

https://www.medrxiv.org/content/10.1101/2022.01.13.22269243v...

This wouldn't seem to bear on what you have said because you were very specific about antigen testing and a doctors letter that you had recovered from covid but people are fantastically bad at making such fine distinctions about things they poorly understand and many who are unvaccinated seemed sure they had had covid even when the illness they proposed was prior to the advent of covid in country. Their logic is in general so bad that they literally changed the date of covid impacting their nation to account for this disparity instead of concluding that their illness back in 2019 was unlikely to be covid.

By January 2022 everyone who hasn't vaccinated has "had covid" whether they have actually had it or not and any differential in public policy towards unvaccinated people who have recovered is likely to result in disadvantage for society at large.
