I liked and upvoted your comment. This could be true, and yet it could also simultaneously be true that the people being reflexively skepticism about “freedom” don’t sufficiently understand the cultural and historical context in which that concept was formed - the history of struggles against tyranny in the 19th and 20th centuries, for example.
That's an American law, not a Canadian one.
The key here is that these people are not engaged in illegal activities or even accused of engaging in illegal activities before their accounts are frozen and before they have been given any chance to defend themselves. Rapists and murderers don’t even get treated this badly. They are treating them like terrorists.
This is incorrect. You are not supposed to make any assumptions about the state of an object that has been destructed or moved from. A “dead state” would still be a state, whereas a “dead object” should be thought of as having no state at all, i.e. not being an object any longer.
Thanks, Helin! Very happy to hear I've been helpful; I'll go ahead and add myself to our features comparison page.
That's wonderful. In my case, there are no Apple products in my house. Is there something like this for Linux/X/Wayland?
This seems a trifle hyperbolic. No programming experience whatsoever? Remind me what the 'P' in 'API' stands for?
I'd hardly call 3rd party grey market key resellers like g2a something that steam accepts voluntarily.

These keys are often stolen or pirated.

The Steam subreddit has a page dedicated to it https://www.reddit.com/r/Steam/wiki/dangersofkeyresellers

The keys from these sites are frequently revoked after they're discovered stolen.
This post is the saddest thing I have ever read in computing. So much power comes about (on the CPU, in the call stack) by being able to assume that things proceed with mathematical tractable properties, as computable functions, plain old general recursion. Distributed things, sure, you have to have protocols and so one to regain the determinism, and even then perfection is no longer achievable, but within your big FSM of CPU/memory/disk, it's all pre-calculated in some platonic ideal of computable, recursively enumerable Platonic world of simplicity and knowability about which we can reason.
I've absolutely heard storage vendors talking about protecting just the FTL during power loss as PLP. You could have an FTL where any writes are atomic, but that gets in the way of throughput practically. The storage vendors don't seem to generally be on board that tradeoff except for 'industrial' branded SKUs that also make throughput tradeoffs anyway.
For all practical purposes, posting that code without an actual guide/readme and without the paper is useless. What are they solving, how is it better than xyz alternative, etc.
More than likely Valve has offered better deals to these larger companies to get them back in-house. It's very probable EA, Bethesda, Microsoft, etc. all have gotten more favorable terms now, by proving they were willing to leave Steam and roll their own launcher.
I don't think one person gets to show up and take claim of the movement and make it about something else all of a sudden.

It started because the Canadian government was requiring truckers to be vaccinated or else they would lose their jobs. If they get their way, the government says "fine you don't need the vaccine," and the protests continue to stick around then the "what are they supposed to do" argument might hold water. But so far the only government response is to call them racist/transphobic/islamophobic/whatever buzzword gets you good PR.
Blindly spending $100mln to make an awesome app without getting a MVP out to validate an idea for way cheaper is just ‘making up losses at scale’. It also doesn’t scale.
I just wonder how could duplicating the license key be prevented. First by small group and then maybe just stolen from someone. While also preventing loss of it with let's say device.

Tell that to Parler. Or news stories censored as "misinformation" during an election (e.g. Biden laptop). Or people talking about COVID origins/therapeutics. Or specific criticism of China (e.g. Daryl Morey). Regardless of your alignment politically, the mechanics of censorship are what they are. The "target group" is a wildcard - any position that competently challenges/threatens the established order, even if that established order is the appearance of control. Today there may be a common thread between the issues above, but I tend to think that's one of convenience. Several decades ago, it wasn't conservatives complaining about censorship. The parties will revolve according to the orthodoxy of the day. Fundamentally it's a question of political principles (which should transcend - that is to say, stay consistent regardless of - parties, contemporary crises). What do you really believe in, politically, otherwise? The Party?
You wanna bring it to more of the world? Try adding crypto as payment method. I know you have a political stand against using crypto (the "crypto is bad for environment" FUD spread by traditional financial players), I hope you'll get your heads out of you know where and do this to actually bring framework to the unbanked masses.
I'm still on version 3 but Podman is easier to use than ever. Kinda random: it even supports `podman build` with `-v` so you can volume mount in during a build. I didn't even think about it (I have `alias docker=podman` on my machine) until I pushed `docker build -v $(pwd):/x` to Github Actions and Docker failed on it.

And apparently Podman has supported this for years while Docker hasn't :shrugs:.

New Rust-based network stack. Support for Windows and OSX. Supports WSL2 backend. Looks nice! Hats off to the Podman team!
It's a bit stretching to take precedence from a foreign nation with different politics and different government structure.
I'm trying to imagine your state of mind when you asked a newspaper to quit sending advertisements. Why not give the number of a good law firm specializing in bankruptcy also?

It reminds me of a guy who wanted to start a company that would "help" the USPS by allowing customers to filter out junk mail in order to improve overall postal service. Yeah, no. Junk is their core business, just like the news.
Why the need to flex that it’s the most popular when it’s clearly not? Is this sponsored?
Agreed, whole heartedly.
Lol, that'd be Putin's wet dream. So all Russians switch to alternatives fully owned and controlled by the government and he gets to blame the west for the switch.
The TD bank had already requested prior to the act some direction on what to do with the funds "“We are unable to release the funds without the court’s direction because multiple parties, including the account holder, intended recipients and some donors, may be entitled to the funds,” a TD spokesperson said."

“The illegal blockades have highlighted the fact that crowdfunding platforms and some of the payment service providers they use are not fully captured under the proceeds of crime and terrorist financing act,” said Deputy Prime Minister Chrystia Freeland.

That's going to lag massively behind the current trends.
Meh, Frontiers is no worse than others. I've published in Nature. I've published in Frontiers. I have to say I had an easier time reproducing results published in "lower" tier journals than high impact journals. It is more a sign that peer-review is broken

Fascinating! I remember seeing somebody do something similar with a first-generation iMac in the 2000s. It was kind of like a DIY Mac Mini.

I've been building devmarks.io on the side for the past few months which automatically syncs GitHub stars, Twitter likes, Hacker News favorites, and Pinboard.in bookmarks into one central location. Bookmarks can also be added manually. I also retrieve extra metadata for developer-centric sites (think: number of forks and stars from GitHub repos, version numbers from PyPI, publish date from dev.to articles, etc). I also have a beta version of bookmark archive working to store readable content of URLs. I'd love for you to try devmarks.io out and see how it works for you and if you send me feedback I'll hook you up with a free lifetime plan.
Seriously. No other laptop on the market can do all of:

- have an insanely long battery life

- stay completely silent

- have excellent performance

The other laptops which can theoretically beat the MBP at some tasks utterly fail at being silent or having long battery life under load.

And the other silent laptops (chromebook maybe) can’t manage heavy workloads.

So it is very unique in the laptop space.
As a matter of usage and severity of failure mode, East Asian languages are very much the main concern. Japanese specifically is the primary motivator for keeping the feature in any form.

If there's more elaborate UI surface in order to address Latin-script cases where autodetection fails (I estimate 1% failure rate for Polish), it risks getting the whole thing removed completely even for Japanese users (as happened with the hamburger menu entry point in Firefox when the hamburger menu was rewritten, as happened in Chrome previously, and as happened with Safari for iOS in the sense of the menu never making it to iOS).
Pretty sure Steam is using early-Gmail accounting: the cost of the services they provide will continue to decrease, while the revenue per user (read: future, lifetime Steam purchases) will stay flat or increase.

Consequently, it's good business to onboard them, even at an immediate loss.
I keep things cloud agnostic by using exclusively:

- Terraform

- Ansible

- Systemd (sometimes Docker)

This way the only thing that changes between providers (e.g., moving my whole infra from digital ocean to linode) are the terraform files.

Do I need a load balancer? That’s nginx on a droplet (terraform apply + ansible-playbook). A database? That’s mysql on a droplet (same commands to deploy and provisioning)
Trump's Truth Social Debuts in Apple's App Store, Hits No. 1 in Top Charts
There's a lot more to Battle.net than most launchers. For one, it's really deeply integrated into like every Blizzard game's chat and friends system. It'd be hard to imagine Blizzard retooling World of Warcraft's chat to accept messages from Steam users, but at present players in WoW and say Heroes of the Storm can chat with each other inside the games.

The performance is fantastic for a Macbook. The past 10 years was like watching Apple trapped in the laptop stone age, slowly realizing that replacing the ACPI tables on a laptop chip wasn't enough to change it's performance profile. With M1, they finally got to do what they wanted, albeit at the expense of x86. For the majority of Mac users that won't matter though, since Apple was never a particularly great steward of the x86 arch in the first place (like when they dropped x86 32-bit support because it was "too slow", or whatever).

Relative to the rest of the laptop space though? I think I'd simply call the M1 "competitive". It's not the first laptop we've seen with a powerful iGPU (AMD's Vega graphics were first to the party in that regard), and it's CPU performance is good but not great (it's effectively a quad-core system no matter how you end up using it). On the higher-end, it's almost a little embarrassing how hard Intel about-faced with Alder Lake and took Apple to the cleaners with a more bloated ISA, decidedly worse silicon and a complete lack of experience designing heterogeneous systems.

So far, the only unique thing I've seen from the M1 is the battery life. I anticipate other manufacturers will catch up on that front as we transition to big.LITTLE and more dense silicon packages, so I'm not really that worried for the rest of the industry. I'm glad Apple has made a laptop that their fans can enjoy, but x86/32-bit support is non-negotiable for my workload, and they have yet to prove themselves with higher-end hardware. Time will tell, but I'm just happy that the performance wars aren't as much of a blowout anymore.
We're using an app we built internally in a similar fashion with clients having access to the boards.

The article is Schwarzenegger-style motivational nonsense.

That sounds a lot more harsh than I want to, as the advise in itself is solid. Yes, you should very much plan for happiness if you can.

The problem is the silent majority that actually doesn't want a career. At all. They work out of necessity, not to find meaning. They just want to live. American optimism has slowly and carefully made this attitude unacceptable to express, hence the silent majority.

But the underlying reality is still there. People don't want to work. That's why you pay them. If you believe the people at your work are there for meaning and joy, give them fuck-you-money and see how you find yourself alone the next day.

If I may turn a bit morbid for a minute, I've attended too many death beds already. I've never heard any of them spend a single breath on work or career. Isn't that telling, if work is supposedly purpose and meaning, and you spent most of your life on it, it's not even worth mentioning?

Anyways, it's still solid advise to switch to a field or role that fits you, in case it currently doesn't. The problem is, work sucks everywhere. It's not the field or the actual tasks, it's other things. You have no control over your time, your colleagues, the quality of management, and most of your time is spent on reporting and communicating rather than actually working or doing things that bring actual joy.

Everything is factory-like, financialized, metric porn. Even the academic world is like this now, and so are non-profits.

The many people protesting were vaxxed and fully vaxxed. Many are concerned their children are being forced.

The one thing I don't understand.

The people who would die over the right of a women to choose to have a baby are the same ones who want to prevent a women from choosing to get the vax or not. If those people win the vax debate do they lose the abortion debate? The state may have good reasons in an unpopulated country like Canada to want to increase the birthrate.

This would mean that attempting to open a file that doesn't exist shouldn't throw an exception. But that is exactly what it does in the standard libraries of many languages with exceptions.
I don't agree with that either. I don't view the tyranny of the simple majority in any favourable light especially now that everything in every country of the west is more and more polarised.

In fact I would prefer parliaments to be elected by citizen lottery and do away with all the political class at every level.
It seems like that still runs into the issues that are outlined in the blog post, however (not accomplishing anything, shallow conversations about current events, better ways to stay informed, and feeling like you're doing something when you're not). In general it's hard to overcome these issues as long as you're still reading something considered news.

I think a good exercise is to spend a few weeks using archive.org to read the news from a few years back (or old back issues of The Economist, if you like). It's useful to see how many things people were obsessed over are now forgotten, and how many predictions ended up failing to materialize.

We should also probably be honest with ourselves and admit that reading the news is mostly done for entertainment, and it very well might not be any better than people who spend their time reading celebrity gossip rags.
There are also many adjacent jobs to development (or whatever) at a medium to large tech company. However, if it's that all the jobs or companies are bad (for you), you're probably going to need something really fundamentally different like some sort of trade. And that has its own set of downsides and is probably going to be a step down in compensation.
The EU is probably not at ease adding a lot of "recent democratic" countries.

As shown in Hungary for example, that democracy is still very fragile.

The goal of the EU is to remain a partner for now and see that democracy mature and stabilize. As can be seen that the main economic partners are from Europe.

But they are still very dependant on Russia ( more than average) for gas, for example.
This is what Tullio Kezich wrote in his book "Federico" to describe Federico Fellini's attitude towards life.

"He lived deep inside things with indomitable curiosity and perpetual openness, surrendering himself to what Dostoevsky calls "the river of life", in the serene awareness that it always takes you somewhere".

It always takes you somewhere.
While I think the Apple Silicon macs are generally high end, the most fantastic thing to me is the battery life.
> I know a little more about Flutter

That's why I asked. You asked about RNW because you hadn't heard of anyone using it, I asked about Flutter because I haven't used it and don't know anyone who does.

> It probably wouldn't be wise to rely on either of them outside of hobby projects. Unless of course you are Facebook/Twitter/Google

I rely on RNW and RN everyday for a production app (iOS/Android/Web) with thousands of DAU. I developed and maintain the app solely.
The block chain may be able to validate a license to a copy of the game, but that doesn't encompass hosting/delivery of content. The actual content of NFTs, tiny PNGs, are still hosted behind a URL. Putting 60+GB AAA titles out there for all time isn't something a Blockchain itself can solve.

I also don't know how IPFS people would feel if they became the CDN for commercial software.
This. Invoking the Act in Canada was a blatantly political move, and they will not easily give up such powers once they get a taste of them. As is always the case with government.
So true. Now more than ever. Watching people around me talk about what's happening in Ukrain, obviously feeling miserable about everything while doing so is really just sad.

Just by glancing at a news article the agenda of spreading fear for clicks/views becomes so obvious.

Oh my, this sentiment is common. Errors can't happen inside a Turing machine. The errors are just when you step outside the process to interact with externalities. Computations should be thought of as having errors in it them, any more than the integers do. Network or disk calls maybe have all sorts of things happen. You have to think about the failures whenever you have succumbed to reaching outside of your call stack for answers. Because those remote or shared by other processes resources might not reach the same level of certainty, and your perfect code might or might not need the answers or be able to work around their lack.
With the rise of the Epic Game Store, I think there's more competition in the launcher/store space and I bet the big publishers got better deals which removed the need for them to invest in the ongoing development and maintenance of their own stores/launchers.

It can't be that cheap to maintain an app like Origin or UPlay and all the associated infrastructure, etc..
I'm guessing you mean dapr.io.
I’m not sure what rights Canadians have but something sounds wrong when they will freeze your bank account before even telling you what you’ve been accused of, let alone given you a chance to defend yourself.
Yeah personally I've settled with 100% with larger fonts. I probably spend 90% of my time in web browser + coding + terminal combined and they all handle arbitrary fractional scaling well from within the app.

And then maybe 5% of the time in graphics editing for which it doesn't matter.

For other locally run apps, scaling at 125% or 150% would be perfect but I think it's just a matter of time before Linux supports it properly without eating CPU.
Delisted usually means "purchase disabled and also store page hidden". Delisted is most common due to IP issues such as expired rights.
I used TurboTax for the first time recently so I could file taxes to get my ACP discount for cheap Internet for poor people. I needed to file a $0 tax return, but where I received stimulus payments. Their system just got stuck in a horrible loop because I was in some weird edge case. Their first "expert" was terribly rude to me. Luckily the second guy was super nice and we hacked away at the UI until we found a way out. tl;dr: TurboTax is as clunky as the IRS
I don't hold that exact viewpoint, so I don't feel the need to defend it.

There's varying levels of "uncomfortable", and a question of who is being made uncomfortable.

If a protest is permanently damaging the hearing of regular people who are not in positions of leadership for 21 days straight, and subjecting them to significant harassment, some of them a botched arson attempt, and a whole litany of other assaults as have been documented in Centertowne Ottawa, I would argue it is more akin to holding them hostage.
If the original content is solely on Twitter, I question its value on the large scale. Most of the ones I see that I would personally consider valuable are actually Twitter links to other sites. Genuinely important stuff doesn't fit in 230 characters, as a rule.

You don't see stuff like Newton's Principia, Aristotle's Nichomachean Ethics, Shakespeare's Macbeth, the Mahabharata, or Confucius's Analects on Twitter. Conversely, the platform is heavily optimized for rage-bait of the "Burn the witch!" "Lynch the black!, or "Throw the Jew down the well!" school.

And of course the overwhelming bulk of Twitter consists of junk like which vapid "celebrity" is currently having sex with which other vapid "celebrity".

It's the supermarket tabloid of online discourse.
One errant cosmic particle and all determinism goes out the door as well.

The story of computing is not one of mathematics, it's of people and it's of change. Software is about codifying decisions and without perfect knowledge of the universe those decisions are always going to be wrong in some way. And that's even without introducing the infallibility of programmers. Errors are simply part of the process.
Interesting, I have no such problems. Both in anonymous windows as well as browsers that have never been logged into twitter I can see linked tweets.

Wonder what's up with that if it is location related or something else.
