> I didn't change a thing, just LOLed and told someone

> Oh well, 2 week suspension

God damn, these idiot school people have no fucking clue that someone who points out a security flaw to you without inflicting any harm is actually doing something good, and that behavior should be encouraged and rewarded.
1. Fugitive.vim
2. Fzf.vim . If you launch vim from a path includes both repos, it will just work. If not, you can provide a starting path argument to the fzf file picker.
3. ctags (universal-ctags) + native vim tag jump functionality. Pair with gutentags plug-in to auto generate ctags when files change and the such.
I mentioned this in a sibling comment, but what also drives me mad is that for about the last year or so, even if I search for something very specific and technical, I get pages upon pages of search results for sites with names that all sound similar to "techgeekhowto", that only contain the most basic (and often badly written) advice on how to reboot your Mac and similar things. Even "Verbatim" mode doesn't help much.
Those are nice, but I have a feeling if I jumped off the roof in one, I might still break a few ribs!
What a wonderful and adventurous life! I really enjoyed reading that.

Makes me think about what stories I’ll have to tell about my life in 40-50 years.
I think the other option is to just restrict the weight limit on these and change bus routes.
Did you read the article you linked?

"In the coming months, we'll provide an option for you to move your non-Google Workspace paid content and most of your data to a no-cost option. This new option won't include premium features like custom email or multi-account management. You'll be able to evaluate this option prior to July 1, 2022 and prior to account suspension. We'll update this article with details in the coming months."
> Not much of a choice anyway. Choosing to keep an unsupported piece of software in the system is a security liability.

Meanwhile, OSes like NixOS can easily deal with different versions of the same package (with security backports) ... Apple seems lightyears behind.
I have been running all my sites on a VPS exclusively since about 2004. I might not be a server architect but I like the idea of managing the server myself.
Yup.

I've long been against any and all usage fees. They just exfiltrate money to cronies, transfer wealth from urban to suburban areas. Witness Bob Moses' innovative manifold money laundering schemes, as detailed in Caro's book The Power Broker, and since replicated every where.

But now I'm open to alternative arrangements that make the bookkeeping painfully clear. Because too many people are hostile to collective action, the greater good.

Maybe radical transparency meets universal basic income. Charge everyone full price in the front, pay as you go. Achieve progressive policies by just giving people cash to cover the cost in the back. In other words, the opposite of suuply side economics.

So if you're a working parent, you just get cash to cover rent, gas, daycare, whatever.

Might be feasible with today's mobile payment systems. Certainly wasn't feasible (logistically) until very recently.

However we can make it work, sign me up. I'm just so sick of all the Freedom Markets™ wankery, err, sophistry.
I was worried that OneDrive would not work correctly anymore.

I've just checked and it works as expected.
Click on "Always Keep on this Device" to keep a local copy of some files.

The only difference is that the OneDrive shortcut in Finder is now under Locations instead of Favourites.

It may be annoying for people needing to re-download all their local content though.
PG has experience in this space, remember. He played a role in helping detect and prevent spam back in the day.

You can always tell when period pieces were filmed by looking at the women's hair, and to a lesser extent, the men's.

I always laughed at the blow-dried 'dos on Little House on the Prairie.

Black Sheep Squadron had the 70's hairdos too, along with the very tightly tailored uniforms on the men. WW2 airmen never looked like that.
While the subject matter of the series is very interesting, I feel that it is a trend of nuancing things out of proportion.

Yes, the Roman emperorship claim was continually picked up, but there were differences (in the West especially) in the organization and reach of these regimes. The Church became more of a parallel branch of power and not a subordinate. Yes, literacy was not lost altogether and people of these periods preserved some books. But there was lots of stuff that would've been preserved by a more diverse culture, where intellectualism wasn't confined to Christian monasteries. There's a whole long story of how the West lost and then gradually recovered Plato and Aristotle, because for the long time they couldn't read Greek, the Ostrogothic king killed the early potential translator to Latin (Boethius) and then there were ages before these foundational texts were regained from Arabic and then Byzantine sources. Lots of philosophical and historical books (such as many parts of Livy's history of Rome itself) were preserved only as summaries, because apparently no one wanted/needed to even read them.

Myself, I would distinguish the (okay, gradual) fall of the empire as the political regime and the decline of the civilization. The former, I think, was actually a good thing, since I cannot imagine another road to the modern experience of personal and political freedom (however flawed and maybe fleeting) from the centralized and despotic culture of the late Empire. (I don't have strong convictions about the causes of the latter).
Divide and conquer is a tried and true strategy.

If I were one of 100 people ruling 100s millions, it would be a handy recipe to apply.

They probably don't know. And it's fine to use docker desktop without paying as long as you're a small business or a private person. They can't automatically know if you're in violation or not.

They just assume people want to be in compliance. Same way I wouldn't misuse gpl code at my work.
Vim, to me, has been unproductive.

I spent about 4 months on it daily unable to get up to speed how I was originally.

This may just speak to my own inabilities of muscle memory, and granted, If I used Vim a little younger, I think the outcome would be different.

But the thing is, I'm productive enough.

Furthermore, I found the mouse to be faster in many cases - I only believe the top 10% of vim users who have spent countless hours tailoring their config to be the most "productive" in terms of typing.

I say productive in terms of typing, because when we code, a grand majority of our productivity actually comes from our brain.

Squeezing out additional wpm actually has very little relevance to productivity.

But looking at seasoned Vim users looks cool though, and it definitely does give those style points.
It makes me wonder -- does everyone end up investigated for their interest in HTTPS and trying to think up encryption methods?

It seems even having a passive interest in computer science or cryptocurrency would inevitably lead to one taking a class or buying a book on these topics. The business person in me always brainstorms the various potential business applications of any technology -- and that inevitably leads to a lot of discussion.

Any system of policing that results in entire professions and swathes of hobbyists being considered and treated as enemies of the state is essentially the same level of injustice as the witch trials of old and shows our species has not improved all that much.
It technically just prolongs the amount of time that the heat is transferred right?

That would still be useful if you're in a small space and the heat loss of the space is greater than the heat loss of the insulated pot.
I'd say it still sounds a bit hostile. I'd suggest "assuming it's true" as a nicer way of saying it.
I'm currently on an engagement at a retail bank for a project that went entirely off the rails (they brought me in to right it). All of the following are currently running simultaneously:

* McAfee
* Tanium, which is constantly firing off massive Python scripts
* Aternity
* Windows Defender (which is well-behaved as expected)

... wait for it ... on an SSD that has no DRAM. Yes, a cacheless SSD. Performance isn't much better than a cheap USB flash drive, which is expected when an identical SSD costs $18 on NewEgg.

The system is effectively I/O bound all the time. The quad-core (8th gen Intel core) idles at 70% utilization, constantly spiking to 100%. The commit charge for getting into the Explorer shell is 13.8GB of the 8GB of physical memory. The laptop itself appears to have a street value of about $240 on eBay. Quality unit with a 1366x768 TN display.

The 30 day discovery period is about to end. I am not supplying an SoW for any further work. I told them the reason nothing gets done by their teams is because the hardware they give everyone is trash, and I can't solve their architectural issues when IT doesn't supply tools to get work done. I wish them the best of luck.
1) vim-fugitive:

> Called with no arguments, `:Git` opens a summary window with dirty files and unpushed and unpulled commits. Press `g?` to bring up a list of maps for numerous operations including diffing, staging, committing, rebasing, and stashing. (This is the successor to the old `:Gstatus`.) [1]

To open file in split: <C-w>f

2) fugitive works with it too. See this thread [2]

3) I use fzf [3] too. My pattern is a bit shorter: '\r' (mnemonic from '' for search the word under cursor). With the mapping and command:

oh wow, i hadn't even noticed that it was a three axle

i've been making this argument on skepticism that a two axle bus should have been on that bridge. the standard patransit two axle fleet bus, a cummins isl (which is more than half their fleet) is 2 tons shy of max load when empty, and average american weight breaks load at bus half full.

that's the 61b. when i lived in pittsburgh it was often packed to the gills. i have a hard time imagining that that has changed.

you're right. if it was a 3 axle, that's very significant. hell, an empty three axle (i think they use man sg 220 gawr, which is ~30 tons curb weight) would likely be too much. i'm glad you pointed this out; thank you.
Could be an Ouroboros, the entirety of existence being created from nothing in an enormous circular dependency. It sounds farcical but when you think about why the universe exists in the first place, it seems as good a reason as any.
I just can't find a way to get myself to the point where I feel like I prefer vim over VS Code.

For making changes in a single small file, vim is good enough and I enjoy using it. But any time I find myself dealing with bigger changes and multiple or big files (Stuff that is more "Project" scope rather than "Code" scope, if that makes sense) I always feel like I want to be using VS Code instead.
For me, I just want a shell that works.

Without a nuanced understanding of standards, extensions, and platform availability, new bash users will get large amounts of shell usage that doesn't work.

To avoid that frustration, learn POSIX. That works everywhere that matters.
Probably because the actions of communist districts like Los Angeles
BMCs are slightly different I think (more powerful!) but at my previous workplace we once had a server provided to us by our hosting provider that had its BMC exposed on the internet with default credentials. They never told us the machine even had one (most of our servers from them didn’t). We only figured it out once we found a Monero miner on the machine.

People on here love promoting dedicated servers over cloud VMs, but it’s so much easier for this sort of thing to go wrong with dedicated hosting.
Listen, if you work at a private research institution and you raise funds through a nonprofit (like, say HHMI), then by all means, do what you want. You are not beholden to the taxpayer. Money from the government absolutely comes with strings attached. Do you think that an employee of Lockheed Martin would be able leak secret plane information on a government contract to an adversarial country with impunity, just because it is a "private company owned by private citizens", thus gaining "first amendment protections"?
FTA: a traditional lightweight wooden fishing boat called a négo chin—Provençal for “drown the dog,” a reference to its inherently unstable low and flat-bottomed shape

Looking at those pictures, I don’t see how these things are inherently unstable. I can believe they won’t feel stable when standing upright in them, and falling out of such a boat is easy, but with such a flat bottom, how can they capsize when left alone in the water? It more or less looks like an oversized stand-up paddling boat.
We did, internally, for a bit, but since they encouraged every library to drop support, and most did, it was not a tractable long term answer.
ABUS locks should be avoided. The family that owns the company is part of the Christian Plymouth Brethren movement. Female family members are prevented from having the same participation rights, going so far as to “incentivize” them to sign contracts in which they waive their inheritance rights.
It's funny how we pretend we want "equal pay for equal work" and compensation to be tied only to merit and productivity, but in practice do the opposite. While the visible salary number might be the same, the benefits structure of contemporary American corporations means that employees with children have a total compensation at a drastically higher hourly wage than their childless peers.

To be perfectly clear before I'm attacked and downvoted- I'm not arguing against society benefiting from people having children or wanting parents to be stable and supported or anything of that nature.

But there is a huge double-standard here about what a job is and how compensation works. Am I being paid for the value I'm creating with my labor or am I receiving an ongoing entitlement for having passed an interview? Why is a VP paid $500,000 for taking care of their child for 6 months but an entry level employee is paid $50,000 for taking care of theirs?

Would it be more fair, inclusive and equitable to allow employees to choose between compensation structures that either paid higher hourly wages without the benefits of paid time off or lower hourly wages with paid leave, such that all employees ultimately received equal pay for the labor they provided?
I think what /u/not2b was getting at in the bigger picture, is that we can decide for ourselves if something is not likely to be the truth.

But if you explicitly add "if there is any truth to it" to your post, then it suggests to the reader that the story is probably false and that's not a very useful premise to start from.
In my experience, Docker for Mac has always had significant performance problems primarily because of its built in host <-> volume sync strategy. The problem has persisted for many years. Different 3rd party (open source) solutions can relieve this performance bottleneck like docker-sync and mutagen. It just blows my mind that after all these years, the docker for mac team hasn't found a decent file sync strategy to include by default. If you're working on a project with a lot of files, docker for mac's built-in sync strategy is likely crushing your CPU.
Twitter also doesn't care about community and users because all they care about now is year over year profit, which is helped by maintaining the "hopeless poster" situation that exists now. most of the live accounts are probably not logged in, the site is fraught with dead accounts and bots. Trending topics are regularly either bought or spammed to the top.

The real-time news factor of Twitter is delayed and corrupted from all of the bot and misinformation activity that is rampant on the platform, and there's really no organic way left to grow an audience left beyond announcing your twitter handle on TV or bootlegging your way up there.

It's pretty grim. Even many verified accounts, with hundreds of thousands of followers+, are tweeting automated tweets daily to an audience of bot followers because of the dysfunction, and many people like me loathe logging in because the experience is utterly soul destroying. The ball was totally dropped on one of the Internet's greatest tools.

From webmaven's comment, I saw a form to request access to Gen2 alpha program, apprently a new lease of life.

"This form is to request access to the private preview (alpha) for use of App Engine "bundled" services in Gen2 runtimes for PHP. Java, Go, and Python are all available in Public Preview."

I once chose CR over GAE for my containerized toy project, and I'm procrastinating on async tasks as I have to make another internal service that feeds from a queue. I hope GAE can make this easy. I also needed to install Ubuntu packages, so I hope containers (or apt-get) are a first class citizen.

LI-FI,,,

It's sad how the ND-100/500 (and 5000+) families have almost completely disappeared, including online material about them.

The IT department at my university was involved in NDIX development (BSD for ND-5000), I believe. This was a few years before my time so I didn't get first-hand exposure to that.

I do regret not holding on to one of the Compact ND-100/110s that we had around in the late 90s, nor any of the Tandberg terminals that we had huge numbers of.
Maybe I'll be laughed at, but right now I consider the most competitive Apple's development environment the Swift Playgrounds on iPad.

I just so wish to see this sleek and fast app replacing old cranky Xcode on macOS by adding missing features.
A CDN wouldn't be enough if the traffic spike involves writes.
When I worked in DoD intel in the past, I had to travel to multiple nations with extremely high rates of dangerous tropical disease. I took multiple vaccines for this purpose. At no point do I ever recall worrying about whether the local populations I was dealing with were vaccinated at all. Because that's how vaccines work. They make it so you don't have to worry about others not being vaccinated or giving you the disease. With diseases that are highly dangerous to children, this is a different case, because you can't vaccinate children when they're extremely young and therefore a person not being vaccinated can transmit the virus to them. With COVID it is the absolute opposite. Small children are at minuscule risk and are actually far more at risk from influenza due to the dynamics of the virus. This risk age gradient is actually unprecedented and a unique feature of COVID.

What's really happening here is people who have considered themselves progressive and tolerant their entire lives have decided that they want to impose policies that are tyrannical, but they have to desperately backfill this logic to make it feel okay. They aren't willing to let any form of data disrupt this because if they did, they would have to admit to themselves that they had a tyrannical impulse in the first place.

Notice how when he got the swine flu nasal spray he wasn't demanding that everyone else in every public place he went to also get it. Nothing about this makes sense unless you view it as people trying to psychologically justify tyrannical impulses.
In Afghanistan? Maybe not. In the USA? That could be something very brave indeed. (Rabid patriots please recall brave does not mean good nor bad)

There are a few collectors in Sweden too.
I've been in several startups with really good product/market fit, really good teams/people, and good customers that still didn't make it. (Sometimes it has nothing to do with you, but just luck and the external world, e.g. 9/11 and the 2008/2009 crash.

Yes, it's possible to make millions in startups. Most don't. I've made a bit, and lost a lot. Over the entire span I've done startups, I'd probably have made more money in a solid, boring, big corp job (working for a year or two for near nothing lowers that average quite a bit), but I have no regrets, and I'd choose the startups again in a heartbeat, since they let me love my work in ways a big corp NEVER can. This rubs off on the entire team, which in a well-run startup, has a drive and cohesiveness that is nearly impossible to create in a big corp.

I hope to make big money in a startup (I'm working on another right now that needs a good all-around developer, since I've graduated my previous one to CTO at another company), but money is NOT the reason to do them. They're just way more fun and rewarding in the ways that matter. (Besides, I still own 88% of one dead company, 25% of another, and 40% of a third. Remember, equity is worth NOTHING until you liquidate it.

Money is fun but won't make you happy - I had a Ferrari for 25 years, but I'm quite happy with the much cheaper, but even speedier 15 year-old sports car I drive now, and to be fair, it's more reliable. (And doesn't track me everywhere like new cars do...)
If you want a portable script, then you don't want that behavior.
This was my thought as well. The comparison isn't exact, but this feels like a War on Drugs situation: you're never going to stamp out all spying, and as you try, a lot of innocent (or at least non-harmful) people will get swept up in the process and their lives destroyed.

Now, I think policing espionage is more valuable than policing drugs, and the dynamics certainly all aren't the same. But I think the bar for making espionage accusations -- just the accusations themselves -- needs to be much higher than it is.
Reports aren't indictments or any curb of freedom from the government

You have to argue in front of a federal judge that the existence of reports chills your speech, but you also have to prove you were effected, so its like schrondinger’s speech where the judge cant curb a government behavior if you cant prove something you didnt do, happened.
Yes! That's the one.
Yeah if your server is DMZ they could have configured it with another ip in the same range.. I guess it's something like that.
