RedHat has a realtime kernel.

it is available from the mirrors. Currently also available from CentOS.

last time i checked, it would not load the NVIDIA driver. YMMV.

if you are in the < 120hz range, then it will probably work fine for most non safety critical times.
The main problem (?) here is why Russian forces totally forgot how to move in a convoy.

They constantly lose their mates, move in a line like they are on a parade, move without deployed AA.

This is beyond "unmotivated and poorly equipped", this is Africa/Middle East levels of incompetency.

There is something very, very fishy going there.
It's not confirmed yet, but this is from the Ukrainian State Border Guard Service:

I don't like programming hobby projects in a niche language - per se. My hobby projects involve using languages, toolchains, or concepts that I wish I were better at, either out of professional or personal interests.

Rust, Swift, Modern CMake, Vulkan, WebGL, Hugo and Gatsby are examples of things I've used in side projects that have directly benefit my professional career.

If you waited until now to ask, your problem is executive/managerial in nature. If you're serious, get a consultant to help you evaluate or build a security program (kpmg,mandiant,etc..). You don't need to do one off changes here and there so you can feel safe, you need a functioning program/team that would get you to where you don't need to panic about random world events of all things.
Would be really cool to see a video of this in action.
As am I. We have to draw the line somewhere, if not Ukraine today it will be Moldova tomorrow and who knows who next week?

@elonmusk, while you try to colonize Mars — Russia try to occupy Ukraine! While your rockets successfully land from space — Russian rockets attack Ukrainian civil people! We ask you to provide Ukraine with Starlink stations and to address sane Russians to stand.

Vaccines Are Not Injected Into Your Liver!

vaccines dont travel from innoculation site to your liver, the products of the immune regime incurred will travel to the liver via lymphatic system and sent to the intestinal tract to be eliminated/defaecated.

any cell expressing the vaccine antigen protien on its surface will be treated as a pathogenic antigen and destroyed in the same way as muscles cells in the shoulder and contribute to the overall immune response.

Because once you have federation you can either use an operator/domain web-of-trust, or you can use allow/denylists on your instance. That's how email or XMPP is kept mostly spam-free (on a selfhosted server most spam - if not all - i receive is from gmail addresses, not from selfhosted servers who are easily denylisted if they start sending spam).

In particular, if an instance or specific repository concerns only people from specific projects/instances, it would be easy to allowlist those specific instances and not have to deal with spam at all.
There’s also ASD-STE100[1], a standard apparently for technical documentation and ATC communcation(?), though while it is designed to assist ESL learners, it probably doesn’t exactly count as simple from a native reading-level perspective.

Shouldn’t be a factor in winter.
And whatever you do OP, don't send funds to random organization's IBAN you find on the internet, unless you confirm them beforehand.

This particular organization is Army SOS, who describes themselves like this:

> Army SOS Citizen`s Initiative coordinates people`s efforts to help soldiers of Ukraine.

> We manage purchases of necessary ammunition, shields, intercommunication and reconnaissance facilities, uniforms and food supply. We deliver all goods directly to the unit`s emplacement and pass them right to the hands of our warriors.

https://armysos.com.ua/en/

Basically, civilian effort to help soldiers on the ground.

How do we know it's actually real and goes to Ukrainian fighters? Look them up in other reputable news-sources. Here are some:

- https://qz.com/2133095/how-to-support-ukraine/

- https://eu.usatoday.com/story/tech/columnist/saltzman/2022/0...

- https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2022-02-24/ukraine-i...

- https://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/how-to-help-ukraine...

- https://www.newsweek.com/how-help-people-ukraine-putin-russi...

Those sources all back up the website (they link to the same URL), so you can be relatively sure it's been verified. Also a bunch of politicians have mentioned the very same organization (unsure if they actually linked to it). Keep in mind that they have different bank numbers/IBAN shared depending on what currency you want to send over.

As soon as you see something on the internet you'd like to contribute to, make sure to verify, verify and verify it before you actually contribute, so you know you're actually contributing to the right thing.
To me, he does a great job of letting the ideas of the guest be the main focus.

I don't want to hear him tell jokes or try to be a comedian.
Putin is explicitly threatening the use of nuclear weapons. That’s what this means:

“No matter who tries to stand in our way or all the more so create threats for our country and our people, they must know that Russia will respond immediately, and the consequences will be such as you have never seen in your entire history”
Trump already sent Javelins. Glad the world was against this kind of defensive armament and made a big deal about it at the time. Glad they have finally come around, too late of course.
Ask HN: Will Facebook's metaverse idea have the same fate as Google glass?
It's dehumanizing Russia state a fact that Russia is dehumanizing Ukrainians?

I can't follow your logic.

I linked to a BBC clip that was heard by hundreds of thousands of people (or more). While he might not be Putin himself, he is a prominent politician in Russia. If you believe Russia has free and fair elections, then he must be influential of a large number of people, and even if he's "far right", he's certainly not "marginal".

Putin himself has also made statements that Ukraine is committing Genocide of Russians [0].. so does that make Putin far-right as well? Are Putin's comments even the official position of the Russian government? He is, after all, just a
"politician" himself....

I'm not claiming "Russians" are war criminals just looking for an opportunity, I'm saying that if you're in a country being invaded... do not count on the invading forces to follow international conventions and treat you like an unarmed combatant when they see you... While most might -- you only have one life, and it only takes one soldier to end it. I would suggest people in such a situation flee, or resist.... not sit around and hope that soldiers in war will act like good human beings to an unarmed innocent bystander.

Why trust them right now?
You pay up front in most cafeterias for example.

More likely the reason this isn't done is to allow customers to buy more (drinks/dessert, do so in a single transaction, and tip post-service. Not because the amount is unknown.
A lot. Honestly, GitHub dropped the ball for a while here. (The inside story is that we bought a SAST company, shifted a lot of focus into making that acquisition successful, and didn't give enough attention to our open source security offerings for a couple of years.)

On the alerting side, we have a couple of things coming. Neither are magic bullets, but both will help.

- Better handling of vulnerabilities in dev dependencies. Some vulnerabilities matter if they're in a dev dependency - anything that exfiltrates your local filesystem, for example. Other's don't - DoS vulnerabilities, for example. At the moment, GitHub doesn't even tell you whether the dependency a vulnerability affects is a runtime or development dependency. We can and will get better there.

- Analysis of whether the vulnerable code in a dependency is called. You almost certainly want to react faster to vulnerabilities in your code that your application is actually exposed to than to ones that it may be exposed to in future. (You probably want to respond to the unreachable ones, too, especially if you can get an auto-generated PR to do so, but there's much less urgency.) We have this in private beta for Python right now, and expect to have it in public beta in the next few months.

Beyond alerting, the other big thing is that GitHub's incentives for this database and the experiences it triggers are fundamentally different from other vendors. We aren't selling its contents, so don't have an incentive to inflate it. Open source maintainers are at the heart of our platform, and we really don't want low quality advisories go out about their software. And developers are our core customers, and we want to deliver experiences they love above all else. That difference in incentives will likely manifest in lots of little differences, but at a high level, we're aligned on wanting to reduce the alert fatigue.

Sorry we dropped the ball on this for the last couple of years. You're going to see steady improvements from here on.
Yeah, if it's a contentious issue then it's not really a win. For me it's easier with just one other person who works in another (toasty) room.
Not really. The company was reasonably small at the time (about 10 people) and most work done in the cloud anyway, so resolving the temperature dispute was the biggest win.
Not sure if Clojure is considered niche, but anyway I do it because it's the most fun programming language for me.

Do people have such a short memory they forget Trump sent Javelin anti-tank missiles to The Ukraine and got shit all over for it?

The left hates self defense and loves cumbaya and useless words.
I agree but it’s not for no reason. If Ukrainians can pursue democracy and European values, so could Russians.
The number one objective is to not become another injured person or body that needs to be handled. You always take cover first then decide next moves.

From the FAQ:

Kyiv citizens must get to the nearest shelter now. Heavy air raid expected
Having finally watched the whole thing, just writing some thoughts below...for those who maybe didn't or can't watch.

1 - Zuck really, really is all in on the metaverse thing. I was never sure if it was his idea, or he sees a trend, etc, but now I'm convinced it's all his idea. I find it odd but interesting someone with essentially unlimited real life resources seeks such escape.

1.5 - I think he also overestimates its success. He pretty much sees everyone using it for work, gaming, friend interactions, etc. I just can't see it being so ubiquitous. Also saying people will spend as much on virtual clothes as real clothes feels offbase, but maybe I'm wrong.

2 - I was a little frustrated because he seemed so... unemotional. Being asked about bullying, suicides... most things that would make people stop, think, or even choke up...Zuck just started into his spiels never really answering the questions well. Unsure if it's perhaps just because he's been asked so many times he has it loaded. Seems very inauthentic.

3 - The negative sum thing was interesting. He basically said any choice they make lowers people's opinions on FB, because the side that agrees just thinks 'about time' or 'at least they didn't screw this one up', whereas the side that disagrees gets angry. May sound basic to some, but I never really considered it before.

4 - It was nice to see Zuck -finally- show emotion toward the end, talking about family time and death. A side of him I don't think many people have ever seen. For the first time, he actually looked pensive and even perhaps distraught before answering. Though I did kinda laugh when he said it's weird he used to care about his company most before he had a family, but now it's probably his family. Something so obvious being presented as an aha moment felt...weird.
That it would. I don't have access to a Mac or time to get it building elsewhere, so a video would be great.
This hits on the core of why we still use what we do in military aerospace. COTS stuff just can’t hit the requirements nowadays.

Personally the newest X86 I’ve seen in this type of stuff was an 80286; everything newer has been POWER or SPARC of one flavor or another, typically running VXWORKS. I haven’t by any means seen everything though.

I agree that Linux with RT_PREEMPT cannot be hard real-time in the sense that it cannot formally guarantee meeting a deadline due to CPU firmware interrupts.

However in many applications (e.g. robotics) where missing a single deadline will not result in loss of life it works perfectly fine.

The unmaskable interrupts on x86 can be a problem but long terms benchmarking can help with possible edge cases.

Other Linux-based solutions such as Xenomai & RTAI which provide even better performance deserve a mention.
US figures are available which can tell you both heating-degree-days and cooling-degree-days.

I wonder if Dang is checking all those throwaways to see which are Russian propagandists.

Yes, of course some idiots can shoot themselves with guns, but most people don't. In fact, even most idiots don't. USA has more guns than people and those freak accidents are rare. Various third world countries have people who cannot read, but who can shoot a gun. And again, they dont hurt themselves.

If you wanted to make some dig about guns, then maybe give examples of real problems (school shootings, robberies, being killed by a stray bullet), but here you come with some absurd comments that "NOT shooting yourself into your foot" requires 200 IQ, which is a straight lie. Using a gun is probably on par of learning to ride a bike, and definitely much easier than driving a car.

Ukrainians cant get a guns to defend their homeland, because some propaganda throwaway (sponsored by GRU or KGB?) claims that they will shoot themselves in their feet.

Those people are defending their homes against an aggression, most probably were conscripts who were taught how to use a gun.

A small example would be the main church of Dresden[1], in what was Eastern Germany. Destroyed by the allied bombings of 1945, it was left as rubble[2] in the middle of town all through communist rule. The rebuild was completed in 2005.

Rebuilding entire cities is another thing altogether. And even if there is a new city built where the old one was standing, so much history has been lost.

Here in the UK we had "cheque guarantee cards" - essentially a debit card without a live connection to the bank. When you wrote the cheque the shop took your card details as well and that meant the bank guaranteed to cover the value of the cheque if it bounced (up to a maximum amount). If your cheque bounced your account went into an overdraft for that amount plus a hefty fee. It meant shops didn't need to worry about bounced cheques which customers could pay using them. It worked pretty well.

Ukraine reaches out to Elon Musk for Starlink amid internet disruptions
Depending on what it is, 3-6 is a _lot_. For something like a Steam game, it seems like waiting for 1 should be more than enough.

I say "more than enough" because can't they just revoke the key of whatever was purchased if it gets double-spent? Seems easy enough.
No, I never said it’s justified. More over, this war is highly unpopular in Russia itself (dictatorship countries can be engaged in unpopular wars). But to understand it you need to look at it from Putin’s perspective: “NATO is explicitly was anti-Soviet, and now is anti-Russian organization. It continues to rapidly expand right next to Russia’s borders. It is a security threat. It deployed nukes in close proximity in the past.” The point is that something unjustified from your perspective is justified from Putin’s perspective.
For the same reason people use banks and brokerages -- it's easy.

There are also significant risks to managing your own crypto: managing wallet security is not trivial, people have lost money because they lost their passwords etc. There is a staggering amount of scams to avoid.

The level of complexity and risk inherent in self-managing crypto is just too much to expect from the general public.
Depends, some do a lot better than others, but in general until it is below freezing by a bit heat pumps are overall more efficient.

They would never have been enough; that was the abusive partner going "if you'd just do x I wouldn't have to hit you so much". Consider the ease with which Russia violated their own (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Budapest_Memorandum_on_Securit...).
