Many young founders won't have the experience or the patience to really understand this, and in practice most won't have the scale to really feel the pain anyway. The ones that do will be worth so much they can negotiate custom contracts. Such is the market for pickaxes created by easy VC money.
This is obviously a "to each his own" issue. Work where you perform the best and for the best of the team. For my small startup WFH has been a blessing. Outside of physical face-to-face interaction there have been no downside because we have adjusted our process and technologies accordingly. We also work very comfortable in video chat all day. We occasionally meet and have lunch. I can honestly say I will never go back to working in an office and most of my co-workers feel the same. The few that wouldn't mind working in an office occasionally are those that have distractions at home (family that don't respect boundaries, usually with young children).
That was my initial point actually: a lot of these tradeoffs happen accidentally since for instance you have to write a custom component to do something basic as changing the background color of a select options.

If more powerful browser components would be available then designers would be happy to just style those, and functionality and accessibility would still be fine.

Not so much "armed" as "sleeping off a binge". He's also been "on the ground" in NYC, DC, Delaware, Nashville, etc.
The exclusion zone is on the most direct zone from Belarus to Kiev. So they may be securing it as a prelude to sending ground troops to Kiev.
> Russia has been dislocating extremely threatening weaponry right on NATO doorstep and treating it as its holy right, for a long time. The Kaliningrad region is Europe’s most militarised area, with SAM and tactical ballistic weaponry extending over most of Poland and the Baltic’s

Is it russia's fault that NATO expanded to russia's borders? The problem here isn't russia. It's NATO. The evil empire that's expanding to places it does not belong. The source of the world's problem isn't russia or china. It's NATO and the west.

Just look at the commonality amongst all the issues in the world. From ukraine to taiwan to myanmar to syria to iran to venezuela to everywhere. It's the US. We are the problem. A clear sign of an overstretched empire having to deal with little fires all over the world.

> But Ukraine thinks about joining NATO and Russia has no choice but carve out some of its territory? And it’s the west’s fault?

A dutch company selling equipment to china was such a problem for the US that we forbade the dutch ( supposedly a sovereign state ) from doing business with china. Imagine if the chinese bought the netherlands instead. Or even better, imagine if the chinese took over canada. Think the US would be concerned? That's what NATO taking over ukraine is for russia. Look at a map.

> When asked to provide an example of a bad deed, he says “when someone take cow from Kali”. Asked for a good deed, he volunteers: “when Kali take cow”.

In other words, "Free Tibet" but no "Free Alaska", no "Free Hawaii", no "Free Texas", etc. "Free Xinjiang" but not "Free Australia". It's almost like hypocrisy is essential to geopolitics? It's part of geopolitic's nature.

> Basically, you don’t need to understand more about morality to understand Putin’s idea of statehood and leadership.

No morality in geopolitics. Just interests. The ones claiming to be the most moral almost always turn out to be the most evil.

What is shocking is how passive the russians have been. Even more shocking is how passive china has been. How passive the world has been. Is everyone just biding their time? Is it money?
> France was invaded because the liberals in France and UK refused to act against Hitler when he first invaded Poland and Austria

No, France was invaded because they didn't shore up their Northern border.

> Let's make sure to make them welcome no matter what our governments say, there's quite empty housing for everyone!

I absolutely agree, except I reckon this is the time for the Visegrad bloc to take them, for once.
I’m not sure I would say ‘again’, he was wrong more often than not.

I’m inclined to believe that anything he said in regards to European countries sticking their heads in the sand is true though.

Something that doesn't appear to be mentioned in here that bit me recently is that views follow a table through renames. Ended up having views that were subtly broken because they were pointing to the tables that I had renamed to have an _old suffix instead of the newly created ones I had expected them to point to.
If this free, unpaid, but otherwise fantastic software doesn't meet your needs, you should probably either provide a fix or... go pay someone to fix it?

Again, I don't understand your comment.

Edit: That's not true, I actually do understand your comment. I just think you could use a more grounded outlook on the value of FOSS. But hey, everyone's got their own path.
For Radar, the frequency used impacts resolution and reflection rates. Thus 4.2-4.4GHz was chosen based on those characteristics and what was doable in hardware given the constraints (not just what's possible, but also what could be fitted and wouldn't for example give up in fog, while working on reasonable range of distances)
Those are the stated objectives only. If they were the true objectives, why are most of Russia's troops in Kyiv?
I'm really curious about this - what do those people think of the fact that tons of world leaders (POTUS and NATO leaders, obviously, but also those in Lithuania, the European Commission, Germany, the UK, and Finland[1]) are all considering it to be an invasion? Do they think that each and every one of those countries is spreading propaganda in the same unified effort?

(if they do, I'm also curious for any analysis of their psyche that you have, because that seems to me like borderline insanity)

Heh, maybe today was a Putin move to further destroy US politics. Here comes Trump 2024? He'd refuse NATO deployment and the Baltic states or more could be Russian by mid 2025...
I don’t think anyone needs any prodding to stop using Kaspersky.
The article was never meant to fully describe the Didget system or all the issues that went into its design. One of the reasons I started working on it years ago was because Microsoft cancelled its WinFS product and I wanted to see it in action. I decided I had to try and build something on my own. I can assure you that I put a lot of thought and research into it.
Hydrogen storage is difficult only in metal tanks at high pressure and temperature. Store it underground or liquify it, and the problem dissipates.

Heating and lamp gas composed of of hydrogen and carbon monoxide (!) were once delivered throughout cities through cast-iron plumbing. That was displaced by "natural gas" as increasing numbers of people were found to have been asphyxiated after a lamp flame in their house died, typically from a pressure fluctuation.

Natural gas then had to have mercaptan odorants added after leaking gas accumulated undetected and exploded. Then, valves that would only stay open when hot came into regular use, for pilot lights. Now pilot lights are gone, replaced by spark generators. Hydrogen will displace natural gas in industrial settings, but synthetic methane or propane will probably be needed for domestic use.
Except it’s not “let us have an office”! It’s “let’s force everyone back to the office”!

The cynical view is that a lot of people are lonely at home, and can already go back to the office but it’s too empty for their tastes and want to force people back.
Also what can we do to help affected in Iraq, Syria, Libya, Yemen, Lebanon, Somalia, Ethiopia...
Sanctions did not work. They did not prevent bad behavior from Putin's part. There is a full-on war going on because sanctions did not work. They. did. not. work. Who cares what some wikipedia page says! -- use your eyes, see the war, draw conclusions. The conclusion is inescapable: sanctions no worky. Sanctions no worky + claims that they do == gaslighting.
Dunno, feels like a tech related excuse to talk about current events on here.
I’m sure if we offered folks without homes the opportunity attend university and live on campus instead, then some would definitely accept the offer!
"In modern democracy, who you are, and who your parents are, matters a lot in whether you are de facto eligible to hold office."

The same as in Athens. Sure, you could throw your lot in, but... did you have the means to run for the office? Did you have supporters that "discouraged" other candidates from running?

The Athenians in office I can currently recall all came from rich or influential families. (I may well be wrong - my recall is certainly extremely spotty. I'd love pointers if anybody knows of an analysis on Athenian officials & their backgrounds)
> You cannot capture all of this nuance in a home-grown form control, or even anything close to it, but many JavaScript programmers do it anyway.

In practical terms for most developers, this holds true. Theoretically, you could replicate nearly the entire experience if you were patient and determined enough. Depending on the kind of product you are going for, it could make sense to invest in this capability.

Even accessibility can be addressed by doing things like dynamically inserting DOM nodes that screen readers can see. This is something I have played around with in my canvas/mjpeg/x264 rendering systems.
Or... you pre-record both 'attack' and 'no-attack' speeches ahead of time, because you know the actual moment will be very stressful and you won't have time.

'Negotiations as misdirection' makes literally no sense. Who would he be misdirecting? Nobody is coming to Ukraine's aid.
And, anywhere it is used, it will also be stockpiled. And sold back whenever the spot price rises.
Yeah. Maybe this will be the thing that finally pushes people away from fossil fuels.
Usually with 200 or so values there is some categorization of values that exists - maybe it's counties in a state that can be divided into regions or songs by an artist that can be divided into album or period. Large multi-selects seem to necessitate a multi-step selection process where the user can drill down (All of this category, none of this one and some of this other one - specifically this, this, not this and that). I think it's feasible for such a tag proposal to make its way through various working groups but it'd be pretty opinionated and we'd likely end up dividing multi-select inputs into several different classes (which would probably be a good thing).
FWIW, Linux distributions are decentralized without any modern tech. It is all secured via signed checksum files you can download from hundreds of geographically-distributed independent sources. There is no dependence on any single protocol or technology, because it's just copied files. Anything that can copy files can spread the distribution. This makes them future-proof, backwards-compatible, and flexible enough to work in any situation. You can cache files, proxy connections, use any storage mechanism, any transfer method. The packaging tools support multiple transport protocols. Works offline and online. You can install a Linux distribution today the same way you did 30 years ago, from the same sources, even though the underlying servers and software have been replaced.
While calling C a typed language is technically correct, I struggle to think of any typed language that's more weakly-typed than C. Arguably, Python has a stronger type system than C.
> The US has a fairly firm interest in Taiwan.

Why only "fairly firm"? I've heard arguments that if Taiwan is invaded and TSMC falls under PRC control, then the US faces massive chip shortages for years (possibly leading to riots and a destabilized government), and those seem plausible to me.
It's the wrong way since there is no independent entity monitoring these programs for efficiency. Government officials by and large don't care how much they spend and don't question when stuff like this happens. There is no way that small rooms in dense housing buildings should cost more than single family homes. There is either grift involved or homeless housing is WAY over regulated/zoned.

Not too sure how pushing scooters out of the way to remove barriers for people who cannot go around them is "antisocial." Especially when those people are neighbors and are in need.

The companies and their users -- the companies don't have structures to prevent their users from leaving their property in right of way, their users leave the companies' property in the spaces preventing those in need of using the space -- are the ones partaking in antisocial behavior.
> There probably is decisive action being implemented behind the scenes right now

Many, many strongly worded letters will go out.

I’m sure Putin will cry himself to sleep tonight.

I dunno, Putins behavior reminds me of my 3 year old son. When he does something he knows he’s not supposed to do, he checks your reaction, and if you don’t respond he’ll see how far he can push it.

Senior engineers at many companies were 95% WFH for years before covid19 hit. I know of entire ISPs that have:

a) datacenter/telecom space

b) field technicians with vans, sets of tools and diagnostic equipment. and in metro areas a storage room/logistics space in a warehouse or industrial area somewhere to receive incoming shipments and keep spare inventory, consumables inventory.

c) fully remote engineering staff, admin staff, literally no office whatsoever.
I genuinely thought... is this article satire, because I wasn't expecting that.

The author isn't even too young to remember, so I am really puzzled by that claim.

I, like everyone else, am glad that Baghdad Bob made it out alive, but I think we should have paid more attention to the idea that post-modern post-truth trolling could come from a source we expected to simply lie.
Doesn't allow me to cast though, which is the feature I miss most about using these alternative apps.
That may have been your experience, but it certainly was not mine.
Yeah, I think the thing with the more exotic filaments is that it's a more specialized used case for when you still need to retain the lightness of plastic. With something like this, the weight doesn't really matter and you want the big increase in strength or durability that you get with metal. Otherwise I find that correct design in your parts provides enough strength in most 3D printed parts to just use PLA or PETG. Nylon is quite a bit stronger but not worth the effort to try and print.

I also think the carbon filaments are BS. I've seen several tests like this one:
https://www.matterhackers.com/news/filament-strength-testing

The carbon fibre nylon is worse than the plain nylon in terms of strength. Which makes sense to me. If you grind up carbon and put that into your filament why would that make it stronger? Maybe for compression forces?
> There is a full-on war going on because sanctions did not work.

The sanctions largely weren't imposed until after the war started. So, it was mostly potential sanctions that didn't work
This is quite interesting because there's obviously several implied

If the proverbial bus squashed me tomorrow I'd be rather pleased that
my recorded lectures continued to be watched and gave some use to
students. The internet is full of talks, conference keynotes and
lecture series by people who have passed on, and in a sense the
longevity of ones work is a good indicator of its value.

The issue is that universities are cheapskates. I can certainly
confirm that. They're bloody mercenaries, that's for sure. It never
occurred to me until the pandemic, when the topic was raised amongst
colleagues, whether my recorded sessions were 'works for hire' or not.

I actually assumed, in a rather good natured way, that should I be
unable to give a course one semester, the uni (next module leader)
were free to use my slides and videos. Most times if I inherit a
module to give I'd rather make my own materials, but sometimes if in a
hurry using the previous professor's stuff feels fine.

There are unwritten academic rules around attribution etc. One should
never substantially use the works of an another teacher without
leaving their name on the titles and slides. Not all unis play fair. I
was once contacted out of the blue by a student at Queen Mary
University London who sent me an email saying their class was being
taught using my slides and website materials, with my name
deliberately taken off and passed off as the work of another
professor. That's a bloody Russell Group institution!

This raises another interesting question around self-plagiarising or
the ethics of selling my work many times. Being a visiting prof at
more than a few universities, I sometimes reuse and remix my own
materials to put new courses together. Once I felt rather bad about
re-badging a whole module of 10 lectures. But then, neither
institution were paying me adequately for them.

Since the pandemic I've done a lot more legal research and got more
savvy about it all. Basically, my stuff is now explicitly _not_ work
for hire. I think anyone who teaches and allows their materials to be
captured should look into where they stand legally. Universities are
cheeky little monkeys and will try it on whenever they can. So I've
started to use CC BY 4.0 explicitly in my materials and contracts.
Most administrators have no idea what that means and just pay
regardless. If an institution wants ownership I now charge three or
four times as much. Most are happy with that so far.
0% ? That's being rather generous. If we take an account all the costs associated with shitcoin, this is a climate destroying ponzi scheme. He can definitely lose more than he put in.

Couldn’t they solve that macro issue using C89 by just having the macro create a block around the loop, and then declare the variable at the top of the block?
Oh, I agree lots of American's don't use the word broil; I was (obviously not clearly) trying to say that those who do use it probably use it because there oven has a setting marked "broil". For ovens that have that, it usually means heat only using the top element (and sometimes only full blast), so the heat is only coming from above.

I think fry is more often used than saute, and often context dependent (e.g. fried chicken may imply deep fried, fried onions doesn't) This latter may be regional.

HPKE: Standardizing public-key encryption (finally)
I'm sorry if the article came off as such. I meant to start a discussion about the shortcomings of filesystems and get people to look at possible alternatives. I think what I built (so far) has some great features, but it is entirely possible that the eventual replacement for file systems will be something much different. I spent years working with filesystems and databases and came up with a long list of shortcomings I saw in both. I don't pretend to know all the answers, but I also don't like people dismissing ideas without taking a serious look at them.
It's not as good.
Those two don't have the resources to project significantly (like superpowers), nor the pressure of border conflict (like the others I mentioned). So their nuclear capabilities are somewhat irrelevant.
Nobody believed. They were broadcast because he was an official spokesman and because they were newsworthy in their surreal falseness.

And the thing about him is that it was not an attempt to convince at all. He didn't think anyone would believe him; he couldn't have, because you could see it in his face. It was theatrical, showy, a performance, not a tedious attempt to lie.

If he had a purpose beyond personal survival it was to humanise the regime as much as was possible. Really nobody thought it was true, but perhaps it was useful to them that it was optimistic, brazen, indomitable, even charming.
I believe I recall that if you used hand sanitizer and then handled a receipt the BPA transfer was significantly higher.

I hope someone keeps stats on the number of russian propaganda videos that hit tiktok vs more honest takes from Ukrainian citizens on the ground. I suspect russia will either dwarf them or simply firewall/block off tiktok. It's really sad to see 40 million innocent Ukrainians fall to a white supremacist dictatorship.

Sadly very true.
I'm genuinely curious at what point a bully threatening you with MAD can be stopped if you value the existence of your own civilization?

Say Russian conquers all of Ukraine and moves troops to the Polish border and parks some tanks a bit inside. What then? Strongly worded essays? If Russia isn't raining hell on Poland, then NATO is forced to .. apply sanctions, make threats, but take no action since the escalation and outcome, MAD, is not an acceptable trade for a tank crossing your border.

Repeat until arrival at French coastline. The terrorist steps forward waving a trigger to a bomb and either you show him your bomb and threaten to blow yourselves both up, or you step back.

At some point, the only option is to call the bluff and give him a good punch and hope that he values life as much as you and won't actually detonate. It has to be a solid one but not so hard as to make him think you might kill him, as that would make the detonation a certainty.

I don't know that NATO has the guts to give Putin that bloody nose.
