Those are the rules that emerge as a byproduct of history as it marches onward. When it comes to human rights, one can note that what is considered acceptable behavior towards a human changes in one direction only.

We don't go back towards saying that slavery is acceptable.

We don't go back towards saying that racism is acceptable.

We don't go back towards saying that executions are acceptable.

And we're also not going back towards saying that women have less say than men, that women must defer to men, that women should have less opportunity than men, that women should lose autonomy over their bodies, that women who are "immodest" should be punished, etc.

These uncivilised things are slowly weeded out while we as societies learn better ways to counter the baser instincts of our reptilian brains and (hopefully) eventually treat each other with the respect and dignity that are now even codified into a declaration of human rights (very civilised!)

So yes, anything that goes counter to that is uncivilised. I don't care who you are; these principles apply. And if you happen to be slower on the uptake, you'll be pitied by those who get there earlier.

Why treat anything serious if it doesn't impact the board? I wouldn't either if I'm in that position. For sure I'm going to hire consultants with coats made of certificates and then sleep tight. I have done what the law or insurance company wants to see and I have consultants as black sheep. What on earth do you expect me to do more? Better processes? Sure let me hire more consultants wearing suits...

"Kubernetes is a cluster operating system" makes sense. Some of the complexity of Kubernetes also feels like the early days of Linux where you had to basically build your own Linux distribution. Even with managed solutions like EKS, you still need to install and learn about cert-manager, how to pass the IAM credentials around, monitoring kinda sucks so you want to replace it, ...

Drivers of course were an issue.

Spotify may have won this battle but will lose the war.

Ultimately it's not a question of revenue but whether Spotify has to follow the footsteps of Meta/Facebook and YouTube to moderate content on their platform. This was largely a non-issue before they started their exclusive deals with the likes of Rogan - the onus was on music labels and publishers.

But now Spotify's position as a content platform has been thrust into the spotlight and will likely have to invest in content curation (e.g. algorithms, human raters). Furthermore if other artists follow in Young's footsteps, then this could get quite messy.
How is the view towards self taught in Sweden?
The most important thing for the web right now is to recover noscript/basic (x)html compatibility, that to re-enable light web browsers. Namely keep the door reasonably open for alternative implementations of light "web engines". It is going to be hard since google[geeko(mozilla)/blink(was a fork of webkit)] and apple[webkit] with their compagnon c++ compilers probably won't want that to happen.
I think spam, random DoS attacks, and hackers killed the old intenet. Not many people want to keep up with moderation and software security updates.
Even in an "enterprise+++ class" multi petabyte, multi drive, totally integrated from top to bottom tape archive for scientific data, there would be all kinds of errors found by our data validation process that would have failed an archive restore.

There's also a weird opposite myth that old software is bad, and urgently needs to be rewritten with newer paradigms.

I'm currently hired to replace a piece of extremely stable '90s software with hundreds of janky eventually consistent microservices because for some reason. That's how software must be written nowadays, and doing it that way makes it better in some unspecified fashion.

The answer is simple: this course is taught at a university, so they have to fill the time with _something_. And if that something is a rote method that lends itself well to testing, even better! It matters little if actual engineers in the field use it (I've done robotics for years, and knowing that Gauss-Jordan exists has helped me precisely zero times).

It's illegal to use proxy metrics that impact a protected class more than others. This is to prevent companies from discriminating by hiding behind tests whose main purpose isn't to match on skills needed for the job but to filter out members of protected classes. An employer can prohibit the wearing of a turban if it is a legitimate safety hazard. They can't prohibit it if the purpose is to ensure no Sikhs get hired. What's the purpose of leetcode? Does it map directly to a job's primary task or is it a way of filtering out certain protected classes such as those of an older age?
Why do you think it makes it more difficult for minority candidates than other interview process? I'd argue it's the opposite. Minority candidates have the same access to leetcode than anybody else.
Ontario is 89% fully vaccinated by your own link. In order to assess whether vaccinated are getting infected at same or higher rates (certainly untrue, but that is what you assert), you have to adjust for the fact that there are vastly more vaccinated in Ontario. A quick and dirty (but still pretty good) method is to simply multiply the "unvaccinated" numbers in "3rd graph. Case rate per 100k" by 10. If you make that adjustment it is quite clear that the unvaccinated are getting decimated by infection as compared to the vaccinated. This holds for graph 1 (in ICU) and graph 2 (in hospital) as well.
> Clothing remains expensive, except we don't see the true cost.

Not really comparably. Lots of externalities and some weird market distortions, sure. But still, we're an order of magnitude or two cheaper now at minimum. Especially if you are comparing day-to-day functional clothing, where it's more likely 3.
Similar to the posts on the actual coffee blog in question.
The very basic idea of the scientific method as I learned it, is: testing ideas by experiment.

If it looks cold outside, but not too cold - I have the idea that a medium warm jacket of mine is enough. And then outside I see if it was adequate or not and next time under similar conditions I change accordingly, or go back to the house that instant.

Sounds like common sense and it is. But not everyone is doing it.

I seriously got shocked by people telling me, they walk in shoes hurting them, but they did so because of style. This sounds like insanity to me, even though I know in their specific setting it makes some sense - as style is important in their circles. But that just means those circles are far from science and rationality, if it leads to people wearing clothes not adequate for the weather and being cold and uncomfortable.
I'd say that a service industry that can't pay workers (primary producers of the service, that can't be replaced) a "living wage" is exploitative and should probably be reworked or disbanded.

The tech doesn't seem to be too complex, is there an open hardware project?

Seems like one could go quite far in terms of performance with just some basic HW and an FPGA. Is there significant difference between multiple generation of the tapes themselves, or is it just data encoding patterns that change?

More specifically, I was a bit appalled by the "magnetic erasing" bit. Seems like DRM to me, on a medium that is conceptually extremely simple.

One could probably take a VHS drive and convert it to a data drive, unless I'm being naively optimistic about it?
A marvelous book comparing income and wealth across centuries is The Haves and the Have-Nots - A Brief and Idiosyncratic History of Global Inequality by Branko Milanovic.

One way to compare wealth is to see how many people's labor an individual could purchase. It differs across time and countries (labor is cheap in India currently for example). This book is a careful historic look by an economist - using evidence from literature, history, etc. Branko uses a variety of ways to compare individuals across history.

> Why is it so difficult to find a space to communicate your open-source project to drive adoption at scale?

You might ask instead "Why is it so difficult for my project to get adoption at all?"

And this is the problem marketers have been dealing with for 100 years. The market is crowded, people are busy with their own lives. For OSS projects, both of these are even more true.

So, how can you succeed? There's no magic bullet. There are many paths:

* finding 10, 100 people that love your project and will evangelize it
* spend money on ads to educate folks about it
* spend your time writing great content about the space so that some percentage of folks will find it and then learn about your project
* do direct outreach to people talking about the problems your project solves.

I recommend articles by Amy Hoy and Alex Hillman: https://stackingthebricks.com/articles/ Patio11: https://www.kalzumeus.com/2010/01/24/startup-seo/ and Karl Hughes: https://www.karllhughes.com/posts/marketing-management to learn more about techniques. Some of these articles are about products for $$$ but you are essentially asking folks to spend something more precious than $$$ (their time) so the principles are the same.

> [0] Sometimes it can be helpful. Adding a relevant layer of physicality to help reason about the problem can be nice, especially in calculus.

I think you've hit the nail on the head here. I had tremendous difficulty with Calculus in High School. Everything was introduced via mathematical derivation an proof. I'd gone over halfway through the year with Cs and Ds and, even though it was almost 30 years ago, I remember the moment it clicked. I was sitting the library working on some problem about pools draining and "OMG, it's just about how fast things are changing" popped into my head. That made derivatives, area under a curve, and all of those things make sense to me.

Ironically, I ended up being the only person in my class to get a 5 on the AP test and then ended up as a EE major, which was very calculus heavy.

In the LA area, I've noticed that the vast majority of grocery store customers are elderly. It's common for me to be the only person under 50, besides sometimes mothers with kids in tow or some dude buying beer. Whether I'm on the westside or some random suburb, it's like this. Once enough of the elderly die off, so will many of these grocery stores, I think. One of the few exceptions is Trader Joe's for some reason. Even I have been buying more groceries online just to avoid the abysmal experience of grocery stores.
Please elaborate on why this might matter? I can't think of any scenarios.

Its still that way, the netflix guys get a lot of press for their bandwidth numbers but plenty of backup systems were getting similar (or greater) bandwidth numbers years ago, since many of the caching stacks are basically pcie or mem bandwidth limited. The 300MB/sec number the author lists is really slow, and likely appropriate for LTO3/4, (IIRC, the wikipedia numbers are understated) LTO7+ can peak at > 1GB/sec with the modern drives going even faster if the compression is left enabled. So, given a library with a few dozen drives, the bandwidth gets insane. (ex: SL8500)
> So a linen weaver would need to work for (500 / 2×40 to 500 / 2×20) 6 to 12 days to earn the price of the simplest linen tunic

So translating to modern wages (in US/Western Europe) somewhere between $500 and $1500 for the simplest tunic, or between $7000 and $21000 for the finest quality.

That certainly puts the practice of robbers to take people's clothes into perspective.

The features of this upcoming standard seem to resolve most of my gripes with traditional Bluetooth audio (i.e. having to choose one out of low-latency and high-quality), as well as adding totally new use cases.

I still find it incredible that "Daumensprung" [0] is apparently not an international concept (I learned about this in Math class growing up in Germany).

Unfortunately the Wikipedia link is only in German, but the short explanation is:

* Extend your arm horizontally in front of you, and raise the thumb to point upwards.

* Close one eye and align the thumb with the edge of a large object in the distance (e.g. a building).

* Close the other eye and note how far the thumb virtually "jumped" across the large object.

Now, knowing the distance between your eyes and the length of your arm, you can use trigonometry to either

* knowing the distance to the object, deduce the width of it

or

* knowing the width of the object (e.g. using a window, doorframe, or car as a reference size), deduce the distance to it.

It's true there will be a PR reckoning for that wording. I am not under the impression that those that greenlit ITER were deceived about the target performance metrics, which is the implied scandal. The scientists and engineers gave pitches to committees, the committees asked questions, the scientists answered honestly. Not everyone on those committees is clueless about plasma physics, as indicated by their informed questions (see the DoE FES subcommittee transcripts). Is this how we should decide to allocate society's taxed income? I don't know, but I don't think the funding of existentially critical research that requires expensive machines that only produce incremental knowledge should be on the chopping bloc every year.

Regardless of whatever "well actually"s come about, the achievements of ITER should not be sidelined. If ITER is successful, it sets a very important bar for mega projects in the 2020s. It would be a valuable yardstick and a blueprint for a nuclear facility that has enormous subsystems for cooling and tritium processing. Thanks to HTS we might not need to make a machine much larger than ITER to hit the necessary performance metrics, but ITER is being made now, not in another two decades.

Watch SPARC for now.
When I evaluated this, it was all about read and write access patterns. So much data coming in for so much amount of time, that needs so much validation, and will be restored so many times in the next few years, etc. It's pretty easy if you know your data flows, but when it's a big question mark, you just kind of throw hardware at it and fix the bottlenecks when they come up. We usually wrote more than we read, but we absolutely needed to keep read capacity open.

I'd remove that word. It's more uncommon to get symptomatic covid in vaccinated vs unvaccinated.

We still need to investigate whether myocarditis risks exceeds vaccine benefits in very young people.
I think your beliefs of what is factual and false regarding COVID are actually the opposite of reality.

You likely think the same of me.

If you could magically be granted "objective" factual understanding, your point would be right, and I would agree with you. But you haven't been, in reality you do not know the facts for certain, neither do any of the 270 doctors/etc who wrote that letter trying to censor Joe, neither does Joe, neither does Robert Malone or any other heterodox intellectual on the topic, and neither does Fauci or any other orthodox intellectual on the topic.

Besides mathematics/logical fundamentals, nobody knows facts for sure. Outside of physics we aren't even quite sure. To pretend that you know the facts, and that you know Joe and his guests are wrong, and that their falsehoods are dangerous --- this is altogether delusional, quite frankly. You may very well be right, but you do not know that you are, you cannot know that you are. The subject matter is too complicated.

My apologies for the harsh words. This is how it is.

Edit: and no, I am not being flippant. I am being objective.

Also, Gemini works for me, and it works for many other people. If the web is not to our liking, and we can't change the web, we can at least try something else (so far I'm just lurking in Gemini, I don't have a capsule of my own). I don't understand the problem with that.

As someone already said, Gemini is already in the "they fight you" phase (First they ignore you, then they ridicule you, then they fight you). It's like with veganism (no, I am not a vegan, though I sympathize).
The problem is that the local volunteers feeding the data into OSM don't necessarily speak your language. Google can afford to hire translators and/or use machine translation for the regions they cover. That same isn't true for a volunteer-driven organization like OSM.
