I’m curious which distro you were using. I was forced to switch to Linux as a desktop server because of a HW failure that prevented Windows from booting.

Perhaps Apple does a better job of making corporate press releases appealing, but I think the more likely explanation is that this perception is just an illusion. Everyone thinks that the stuff they dislike gets more attention and more favorable treatment. This is the driving dynamic behind perceptions of ideological bias, too. I wrote a bunch about this yesterday:

Does the presence of AGPL address most (almost all?) of your concern? It seems like that would offer individual users freedom to use and modify the source while precluding Amazon from monetizing it effectively.

Those same properties of AGPL mean it’s generally viewed as not as effective at attracting a community of early users, but in a case where the alternative is proprietary-only and the company “wants” to be open-source, AGPL seems a better option for them.
The reason why many 8 bit micros were derided as toys was not because of the 8bit cpu. 8bit cpus were well-respected.

It was because of the crippling lack of ram and other cost-saving measures.

Having 1KB of ram (or less) on a single board computer like the KIM-1 wasn't an issue, because they were programmed in machine-code and didn't need to drive a screen.

But 1KB of ram on a low-cost microcomputer like the ZX80 was beyond painful. It takes 768 bytes for a full screen buffer, leaving just 384 bytes for the BASIC program, all it's variables and the interpreter state. And it took all the CPU time to drive the display. Actually running the program or even pressing a key would cause the screen to blank and desync.

Even on better micros that had ~4KB of ram, the scope of the BASIC program you could write was pretty limited.
It's actually a "no-op" -try it.

I once got banned from a subreddit (a subreddit that I had never been aware of as being in existence) for merely commenting on a picture of an Iron Lung, saying that I hadn't seen one of those for about 60 years.

Know why I was banned? Apparently the picture on the Front Page of Reddit, where I had seen it, was the thumbnail of an article in one of the pro-Trump subreddits.

That over-enthusiastic censorship was one reason that I decided to withdraw from Reddit.
There was a great bit from Conan O'Brien's "celebrity secrets" series in which David Bowie delivered the following dialogue:

This is true. There is however, a way to explicitly state that the app does not use the bluetooth scans for location: https://developer.android.com/guide/topics/connectivity/blue...

However, this would depend on the good will of the developer, as the end-user does not know whether this flag is set or not -- as far as I can tell.
Yeah, I agree that it's challenging to fill up a 3840x2160 or an ultrawide 3440x1440 monitor. But I see apps (Gmail being a prime example) that don't even fill up 1920x1080 window.
It's not deflationary though.
Maybe I got the timelines wrong - isn't that what was originally happening with Mongo and AWS - AWS was hosting Mongo when it was still under AGPL?

Also the Google policy seems to stem from:

1. It's never really been defined very well what "interaction over a network" means for AGPL and how truly viral it really is - although I'm sure ever there were ever landmark cases in the US establishing it, things would magically end up in Google's favor

2. Google purposely spreading FUD around more restrictive OSS licenses to discourage their existence
I've been looking for them from the official source I once had, but I cannot find it today.

IIRC, they were:

1. The form of the government is to be preserved; i.e. the Emperor's position is maintained. (I cannot remember if the rest of the government was included, but I don't think so.)

2. Japan is responsible for demobilizing its military.

3. There will be no occupation.

4. Japan is responsible for handling its own war crimes.

Because more people live in cities than ever before and more value is being put on having quality sleep and quiet. Cities need to be transformed in to the nicest places to live to lower housing costs and help the environment. One of the most impactful things that can be done is catching the very tiny percent of people causing basically all the noise. It should also be in the hands of the people who live there. If you want to drive through an area, you should be subject to measures set by the people of that area.

That sounds like the fixed point representation is part of what causes the huge memory requirements. It's fascinating how obvious some ideas are in retrospect. Floating point is basically just scientific notation, which was well known AFAIK. But I can imagine that it's hard to make the transfer to use that as the representation for all calculations.
It seems that "modern" UI designers want a look and do not give a flying fuck about ergonomics (on desktop at least)
We had similarly terrible experiences with AWS ES, so we moved to self-hosted Elastic. It's better but still pricey and requires more manhours dedicated to tuning.

Their move away from open-source has been unfortunate. For that and some other reasons we've ended up more impressed with Logz.io and Splunk SaaS.

Sounds like a problem of policy really at the core - maybe when we get some more nerds in Congress this will be finally addressed?

Seems like this could just be a government run database (assuming these businesses are paying taxes and not completely shady) with some of it publicly accessible.

Have you tried also looking at US shipment logs? I know there is that guy who a few years ago made a site that scraped and indexed all of the public shipping logs (anything crossing US borders by land or sea goes into huge public databases - for some reason air is excluded). Could be a way to cross reference this data to fill in the blanks for some of the things you are talking about?
Thanks. I'll take a look. I've tried Relm 3, Relm 4, and gtk-rs, but they all use Linux only in their CI. I just can't work out what to install and what env vars I need. I didn't the official GTK docs all that helpful on the topic. I'm keen to see how to package the whole thing up, too. Ideally, I could just put the necessary libraries in a directory with the executable.

I write about a conditional surrender as though it would not be accepted by the general public, especially in that time.

Apple actually has pretty thorough user guides in the Apple Books store not just for each iOS major version, but for point releases as well. The latest one is iOS 15.2.

These also exist for other Apple products, but Apple could do a better job advertising them.
I don't fully understand it, but I think the answer is usually some form of "attention economy". Also, I'm not sure how often startups get 1.8 Bn USD in series B. That sounds like a lot.
"What's the difference between Marxism & just unrealistic idealism"

Difference between Marxism and unrealistic idealism, not between Marxism and other political regimes.

But I'd love to see an example of a Marxist regime bigger than a kibbutz that does not display that pattern, if you have one.
What else have they changed? Nothing that’s focused right? the HomePod is there. Not sure if there’s anything else. I don’t consider AirTags or Apple Pencil not being ipencil to be ones since they are small products or ancillary like the Pencil.

I guess even just the iWatch and iPod (lol) vs Apple Watch and HomePod are two huge changes from the historical norm.

Though Mac computers have almost never stuck to the convention. The iBook [and iMac] came out before the dot com bubble and the former was effectively dead by the time I was looking to get an Apple laptop in 2005, 2006. Before iPhone, iPad.

iMac is only computer sticking to the convention.

It seems Apple didn’t stick to this naming convention as much as it is being made out to be.
I don't think they're competing ideals at all. What is needed is a configurable system with easy defaults, just like setting nano as the default editor but allowing me to change it to vim.
I think there's a couple of counter-examples to the "they need to surrender for peace" argument.

After World War 1 Germany surrendered. That did not result in a good outcome.

After Desert Storm, Saddam Hussein never invaded Kuwait again. Not that he didn't want to of course, but he was easily contained by a superior military coalition.

Even if they wanted to fight to the last man, the most hawkish Japanese military heads would have considered it infeasible to strike out again after WW2. Before Pearl Harbor they already knew the US was stronger than Japan, and that the gap would only widen as time went on. Japan's confidence was in large part due to the alliance with Germany and the belief that Germany would win the war in the European theater. That opportunity (if you want to call it that) was never going to happen again.
They might notice the low oil light warning. If they immediately shut off their engine, the engine will probably be just fine. Modern oil "sticks" to the moving parts much better, so it takes a day or two for it to all drip down into the sump.
There is a simple thing they do that we could mimick (and some have started). macOS and Windows ditched (or never used) the concept of widely using dynamic libraries and dependencies.

Apple and Microsoft build SDKs that you compile against, and for the most part those are the only dynamic libraries that you use. Between point releases the ABI is compatible so you can do thing like security updates without recompiling applications. Everything else is bundled inside or distributed along side the application and is the responsibility of the app developer.

There are a few attempts at doing this on Linux - Flatpack, Snap, and AppImage.

Some of the current HIV vaccines being tested right now work on the assumption that if they can elicit a certain antibody response from the immune system, it will produce specific antibodies that have been shown to work against HIV in humans.

If you can design an mRNA vaccine that encodes those proteins directly, you won't have to design vaccines with the mere hope that the immune system will develop the right antibodies in response to them.

From what I understand about HIV vaccines, finding the right inoculant that elicits the correct HIV eliminating antibody response is the hard part that mRNA vaccines might be able to tackle directly.
You said: "if you're doing PoS you're not in a permissionless blockchain anymore (since you need to buy staking power)."

So my point was that having to buy stake doesn't make Ethereum's proof-of-stake any more permissioned than proof-of-work, where you have to buy mining equipment.
They are different paradigms. The command is a power tool, suited for expert users (vs intermediates and beginners)

The stance is also different of the command line. As someone who also does creative work, the command line is simply not a tool I can use. “Paint Logo” is not a command :)

Making Linux a diverse tool for different stances and operations would be a great help for adoption.
For starters When has sprawl not caused a reliance on cars? Eaten up large tracts of natural land with cookie cutter homes, pavement, and non-native office park type landscaping?

It’s not location dependent. Phoenix and Vegas or wherever are doing themselves no favors by building out rather than up.

Yeah RFC6902 works best when you are only trying to create patches that are safe to apply to exactly the expected document.

You potentially need much more for some scenarios where you could be applying a patch to a previously modified document. It has some limited support for some common operations for these, but quite far from everything that could be useful. But it is also true that they needed to put the limit somewhere, and where they stopped is reasonable for a fair few scenarios, but certainly not every possible one.
I have an interesting synth here with a chromatic keyboard, the 'Chromatone', it's great to experiment with but I have yet to learn how to play anything with it that I already know how to play on the regular keyboard.

Yes, but AFAIK it isn’t modified.
I have heard the a capella singers will naturally sing intervals and chords using just intonation and that because of that you can craft melodies that will lead them farther and farther from the original tuning:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syntonic_comma#Comma_pump

Also, my understanding is that a big part of the magic of barbershop quartet singing is ringing (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barbershop_music#Ringing_chord...). Those chords that sound so pure that it gives you goosebumps. That requires singing in just intonation.
I think that irresponsibly spreading propaganda which implies “police are more dangerous than criminals” while simultaneously demanding “accountability” is unlikely to convince the police that any “accountability process” is going to be carried out in good faith.

I also think the existing criminal courts and prosecutors hold police reasonably accountable. They could do better.

Of course the tricky answer is, where possible that is exactly what we should strive for.

People hate it when their SQL Server responds to a 60 line procedure with "Syntax error" even though I'm sure that's technically correct - while they like it when the Rust compiler spits out an explanation of why what they wrote can't work, pointing at the specific places it's wrong and suggesting what might help.

If you ask Google for "tow the line" it suggests "Did you mean toe the line?" because sure enough that's the expression you probably wanted (unless what you wanted was specifically people explaining why it isn't "tow the line" but don't worry it does link those explanations)
> whether F# is really the same as Gb (answer: it's not for them).

The reason they're the "same" is because of a limitation of musical instruments in their ability to play in multiple keys that led most Western instruments to be tuned in the 12-tone equal temperament system. If you select a different temperament, or use an instrument that can't be constrained by the 12-tone temperament, such as a computer, they can be different.

Some violin players will also tell you that they're not the same notes.
I was looking to see if 80db made sense or not as a limit. Looking at these sources:
https://alexonautos.com/cabin-noise/

It looks as though 80db would be significantly above the max for a stock car. Although I would probably like to see a tax on any cars sold with over 75db of sound as it's a significant burden on society.

This is the reason I honestly sometimes prefer buying from smaller online businesses who are too small to do their own payment processing and instead outsource it to a processor like Shopify or similar. They are probably taking a bigger loss than they would if they could process it themselves long term but at least I have relative peace of mind that I have used the service before, the certs stay consistent, and that they are likely doing a decent job with security in general (given that processing is their whole thing). A lot of times the look and feel of some of the process will be customized but for the most part you can quickly identify when its a payment process you have used before given the web forms. And of course it is easy to verify the cert after this.
From a purely practical angle, how am I to ascertain why they chose Apache 2.0 as the license and how should I weigh that knowledge/guess against the crystal clear grant terms of “Subject to the terms and conditions of this License, each Contributor hereby grants to You a perpetual, worldwide, non-exclusive, no-charge, royalty-free, irrevocable copyright license to reproduce, prepare Derivative Works of, publicly display, publicly perform, sublicense, and distribute the Work and such Derivative Works in Source or Object form.”?

If I license any of my code under that license, I hope someone builds a billion dollar business on it. If someone else does the same, how should a licensor understand the difference and act accordingly?
