I would argue it already has. In 2017/18 in my last year of undergrad, our computer architecture class used RISC-V as the ISA to teach with. Granted, we used the book written by the designers from Berkeley, but our old book was MIPS and also written by them.
I figured it was that concerted civilian targeting will force NATO to act. Or perhaps that the close ties between the two countries is still somewhat able to override Putin's shitty bloodthirsty instincts in some ways.
thanks for toning it down and the sources
This is a very similar philosophy to the MobX library (normally paired with React), and also to the programming language I'm building: https://github.com/brundonsmith/bagel

Game soundtracks are usually sold on Bandcamp, even for games that aren't on the Epic Store.

I was able to get the shell running in Firefox (for example, running ls or echo "hello"), but I think you are right that something is off when you try to install a package. Looking into it right now!

Some packages (like Python 3.6) are a bit out of date. We are planning to update most of them as languages add native support for Wasm and WASI. But yes, in general the packages are mainly community driven.

For example, you should be able to try irb / Ruby latest version here (thanks to their WASI support upstream a few weeks ago!)

Well it's not going badly, it's expected that Russia would win because of how much bigger they are. It's more that it's going badly for Russia in the north and expectedly in the south.

Of course, being able to capture land doesn't mean they can occupy it.
IMO the real reason why Java never took off on the desktop is because making a cross platform Java app is pretty easy but distributing a cross Java platform app is super hard. There’s all these situations that you have to account for, there’s no de facto way of doing anything, and you’re basically on your own finding a solution that fits your app. On top of that, you have to distribute the JVM and licensing for that used to not be that clear cut.

Literally the only obstacle to any language being on the desktop is the lack of someone creating a reliable, well-supported, cross platform, and easily licensed distribution method for that language.
Certainly the default L&F is not native looking, nor are any of the popular community L&Fs. Though one can simply set the L&F to the native look and feel with essentially one line of code. The little care I'm referring to is around polish to get beyond the lowest-common-denominator. Regardless, system L&F with Swing is still worlds better than any Electron app, which is now a common technique to build cross platform apps.
Context for people unfamiliar with football/soccer: Roman Abramovich is a Russian oligarch who grew rich in the 90s by buying state owned companies at rigged auctions. He was close to the previous President Yeltsin and allegedly recommended that Yeltsin appoint Putin as his successor. His relations with Putin have remained cordial with Putin unlike some other oligarchs like Mikhail Khordokovsky, who crossed Putin and lost everything.

Around the same time Abramovich used the proceeds of his dealings in Russia to buy London based football club Chelsea. It was speculated he wanted a productive asset that would be beyond Putin’s reach as well as building up a public profile so he couldn’t be disappeared like Khordokovsky.

In the last 20 years, he has loaned around £1.5 billion of his money to the club because it made losses most of the time he owned it. This despite winning almost all available trophies at least once during that period. Still a sound investment, because the club he bought for £140 million is worth at least £2.5 billion today.

There’s a few interesting things we can infer from this statement where he says he’s selling the club and giving all proceeds to victims of the war in Ukraine

- Abramovich thinks that the war and sanctions are going to last a while. As someone with access to Putin, he must have realised that Putin isn’t planning to back down, and therefore neither is the US and EU. He can’t ride this one out.

- he knows that sanctions are coming for him and most of his US and EU based assets are going to be seized. Might as well say you’re giving them to charity if they’re gone anyway

- he retains some measure of control here. A charitable foundation with some trusted members controlling the money is preferable to control by Her Majesty’s Government.

Ironic that he got the club to avoid seizure by Putin but it got seized in the end anyway.
This is fantastic, and I will definitely use it for personal projects in the future!

I see a few requests for practical features here, but I have one incredibly silly request: how plausible would it be to restrict the colors to a set list of RGB values, so one could, say, generate color palettes for physical mediums based on medium color -> RGB conversion lists, such as painting, cross stitch thread[0], or yarn[1]?

> disk encryption should be way higher on the list.

Disk encryption is relevant only against a relatively rare threat. First, physical attacks are still relatively rare. Second, it only helps against one-shot, detectable physical attacks against a shutdown system. As soon as the attacker can tamper with the system without you noticing, most common FDE (especially on Linux) won't protect you.
Conflict in europe, and now this ?
The JRE security horrorshow might have started before the Oracle aquisition, and we wanted rid of java on the desktop for the same reason we wanted rid of flash. Apple used to advertise that only Windows suffered from viruses until their own unpatched JRE was exploited widely. Oracle contributed by making updates burdensome to download, and now unavailable without a support agreement, but what stopped java GUI apps from succeeding is at least partly the truly endless stream of remote code execution vulns if the JRE was available to the browser.
If I may be so bold, I do not think Compass Letters is the sort of service one promotes with advertising. Instead, the $15k you mention ($5k/yr on 3 platforms) would be FAR better spent on other marketing activities. Media coverage, co-marketing deals, contests, direct mail to day care centers, edutainment deals with schools, etc., etc. If you have a difficult time even imagining alternative marketing initiatives, there are many books that cover this sort of thing. Or ask the advice of someone in PR/marketing consulting.

Generally speaking, advertising is what you do when you have lots of money and not a lot of time or ideas (relative to the returns you're seeking). It's a saturation bombing of marketing tools -- you need to think like a guerilla. IMO, your product is unique enough that it could generate a reasonable amount of traditional press and social media coverage if played right.
You think the guy who bought a racing team for funsies (and for charity!), the guy with an extensive forge setup in his palatial basement, needs more money?

I know it's hip to be cynical and all, but seriously. Even if he were so motivated by money, could anyone even put together a payout that'd be better than "continue to watch the Steam Store print money, beholden to no one because Valve is a privately-held company held by you"?
Great post, unfortunate you had to deal with this
I think Java had a bad reputation on desktop for a long time. Every application I remember using back in the day was extremely sluggish, felt like a skinwalker with regards to UI, and hogged memory.
I agree, but that is a completely different point than "The western world only cares about this conflict because the victims have blue eyes and blonde hair"
> the number of java devs who think clobbering together a few native widgets means they have constructed a native experience is... disconcertingly high.

[I'm the author of the article in question.]

I want to highlight a few ideas that perhaps I didn't cover very well in the article:

* static linking -- the concept of static linking appears in total 7 times in the article, once in the summary, once qualified with "if possible", three times as comments on a few example projects that do happen to employ it, and once discussing Go's advantage; the article is not about static linking!

* dynamic liking -- it is completely fine, just don't depend on non-mainstream libraries, and don't require the version released yesterday as most stable distributions won't have it (for the next couple of years);

* packaging and dependency minimalism -- as I've noted on Lobsters (<https://lobste.rs/s/adr60v/single_binary_executable_packages...>), the article is mainly about the simplicity of building, packaging, publishing, deploying; try to read it both from the point of view of the developer and the user;

It's tough to evaluate the chances that soldiers down the chain of command would violate orders to deploy nuclear weapons, because the military believes that it must look like it's fully committed to launching nukes if ordered to. The theory is that if the other side believes that there's any chance you _won't_ launch nukes, then they might be able to exploit that and get off a strike without a response. The US military is (or rather, was during the Cold War) so committed to this idea that soldiers that questioned whether or not they could even question the order were discharged, as in the case of Harold Hering, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Harold_Hering

I'd like to be able to control my phone notifications in the time domain. Example: I have a friend who texts every sentence in its own text. Its not unusual to get 7 to 10 texts from her in a row. I'd like to be able to say, "Give me one notification for any number of texts, 60 seconds after the last one."

Another idea might be, being able to hold notifications-- I'd like to see all notifications every 25 minutes.
We've had nuclear weapons for less than 100 years which is nothing in history. Based on that the Roman Empire never should have fallen. If it made it 100 years, why not 150000 instead of 400ish?

Advice to an Undergraduate
The ability to switch LookAndFeels is one of my favourite features of Swing. Lately I've found myself using the Motif one a lot for my tiny personal projects, although copy&paste doesn't seem to work on its text boxes and that's very annoying. I usually make it so I can configure it an change it on the fly. Trying all the possibilities is kind of satisfying.

Java gets a lot of hate but it's a language I really like. The only real issue I had with it is its memory consumption. As a developer, it still has some warts like the absence of actual generics (autoboxing is an ugly hack), but when I compare it with other languages' warts, they are usually uglier. Although my preferred usage of Java is mostly reduced to mathematical or algorithmic stuff, with little to no external libraries, and it certainly doesn't include Spring or any other annotation-heavy framework.

As a user I also definitely prefer Java to Electron and most modern frameworks. Then again I hate most modern design trends...
The very term "exit strategy" answers your own question: if you're committed to building a sustainable product, with long-term sustainable profits, caring for your employees and your customers, without any explicit plans to sell off your company to random megacorp, where it will be scrapped for parts, then you're a dumb loser trying to build a lifestyle business and you deserve to be shamed out of Silicon Valley! How dare you waste our precious venture capitalist time with that crap!?

I get it: venture capitalists are interested in the most efficient possible way to loot the economy, and funding non-viable startups until they're so overhyped that some other idiot buys the over-inflated toxic asset from them before it blows is a great way to do that.

Of course speaking out against VC and startup culture on Hacker News is going to get me downvoted to oblivion, so go ahead and mash that down arrow. Don't forget to dislike and unsubscribe!
>Or are you saying that you just don't believe in NATO, you would like the US not to have mutual defense alliances at all, and the expansion of NATO is completely irrelevant to your feelings about NATO?

I'm not enlisting for anything short of America actually getting invaded. During the Vietnam War anyone with a bit of money could get deferments. Those are what I call smart men. I feel absolutely no obligation to die in a foreign conflict.

Providing logistic and selling arms is more than fine, but getting directly involved is a completely different matter.

Budgie Health | Software Engineers (Python) | Remote (US preferred) or NY | Full-time
Join us to make healthcare benefits less confusing. Budgie Health recently closed its Seed round led by top VCs (Greycroft and Pear VC). We are now looking for a founding back-end engineer/architect (and a front-end + UI/UX designer) to build towards 2 pilots already agreed on for later this year.

We already have a senior data engineer on board that has experience with the health data that we will leverage. We envision using python for the full stack (Django?)...but we want you to come own the architecture and tell us how you want to build it.

Why Budgie: People shouldn’t need a PhD to understand their healthcare. At Budgie, we are reinventing how Americans interact with their healthcare benefits. We believe that by translating complex healthcare data into simple financial experiences, we can empower people to make better decisions while saving time, money and stress.
We are starting by modernizing how employees choose their health insurance plan.
Ask your friends if they need help picking their health insurance and you will understand how big the opportunity is.

God no. That would be a disaster.

Back here in the real world, not the modelled world, we have to ask is the temperature even rising at all? This shouldn't even be a legitimate question to ask but it turns out it is. In recent years temperature "rises" have sometimes turned out to be the result of data modification and not really existing. See how NOAA has announced that July 2021 broke the previous temperature record set in 2016, and how they also announced that July 2019 was a record breaking year. This happens because climatologists are constantly rewriting the historical record to create new warming trends where none were previously seen. They admit to this in obscure papers but reason, correctly, that the media/political set will not call them on it, so they can get away with making their predictions about the future come true by simply altering the past.

In many cases temperature graphs for massive regions that were flat in the past have become sloped in the present. Consider this front page New York Times article from 1989:

https://www.nytimes.com/1989/01/26/us/us-data-since-1895-fai...

"US data since 1895 fail to show warming trend"

Look at the graph in the lower left hand corner for long term US temperatures and notice that it's flat. The US should certainly have warmed between 1895 and 1989 given GHG emissions in this time frame but it didn't. Now go look up a temperature history of the USA from modern sources like the NOAA website. Observe that it's sloped upwards for the same time frame. The past has been changed.

In the first part of the century there was a notorious so-called pause in global warming. Temperatures were once again not going up. Scientists fixed this by rewriting the past once again:

https://www.nature.com/articles/nature.2015.17700

If there was actually runaway global warming, they would not need to do this sort of thing. But they do, because otherwise, warming does not appear in the data.

Given that the temperature record is not trustworthy by climatologists own admission it would be incredibly destructive and unwise to do geo-engineering on the basis of such flimsy data. It could easily make things far worse. In fact we just finished up with a global crisis; one that appears to have started in a lab that was tampering with viruses in an attempt to pre-solve a future disease crisis that existed primarily in the heads of the scientists researching it. The scale of it was then exaggerated by modellers who didn't understand what they were modelling and who have utterly refused to accept evidence that their suggested interventions had no effect.

Academia is just not reliable enough to take drastic action on the basis of their predictions and people who keep denying this are, in my view, the real deniers.
Yeah, as much pain as it has caused me in the past I think the crucial realization Microsoft made with Webforms and maybe Blazor is that the stateless model of web is fairly crap if you are doing anything beyond displaying static text.

For its time it was some cool tech.
There was a hue and cry about Ukrainians dipping bullets into salo but seeing as the Chechens got droned by Bayraktars it seems like the Turks don't mind whatever treatment the drones are getting.
"Oligarchs" are people who were friends with Boris Yeltsin in the 90s. USSR was collapsing, government upheaval, etc. In this period, the government of Russia sold off state owned enterprises for extremely cheap prices, fractions of a penny on the dollar, to Russian nationals. The state owned enterprises were things like mines, shipping companies, iron smelting, etc. The people who bought these state owned enterprises are "the oligarchs". They have extreme political power in Russia and own or have monopolistic control of huge parts of the Russian economy.

It's not a generic slur for "billionaire" its a much more specific term relating implicating them as beneficiaries in a kleptocratic system.
Really interesting article! For anyone curious about perspective in art, see the book "Perspective Made Easy" by Ernest Norling. It is easy to follow and has simple helpful exercises.

A more technical and challenging book is "How to Draw" by Scott Robertson. That one is good if you want more technical theory understanding (plus the illustrations are amazing).
> Do you remember how much time it took the US to win the Iraq War?

Russia already lost more soldiers in this war than the US in the entire Iraq War.
At first it was "this will be put into a trust" as if that solves the problem of the club being owned by an oligarch. Now it's "it will be sold but not fast-tracked and the proceeds given to a foundation."

Why not just transfer it to a foundation along with the debts?

The weasel-wording and slow-rolling gives the appearance of an attempt to evade consequences.
There are counter claims that that building was being used for recruitment for the Azov battalion.
Russian oligarchs are not "someone with money." They are people that used connections during the fall of the Soviet Union to steal entire industries from the country.

Imagine if in the US we had political upheaval, and Hunter Biden was gifted ExxonMobil or something. That's what the oligarchs did.
Well, we don't know the whole story, but the fact that it was Ukrainian jet, not a gift, could matter a lot. Those things aren't strict rules, it is all based on perception by both sides. Sending 70 fighters, as EU planned, or allowing them to operate freely from Polish airports would anger Russia much more. Which apparently isn't something NATO is willing to do right now.

EDIT: the fact that the jet was Ukrainian gives Romania plausible deniability - they can always say that the pilot wanted to fight, and took the jet against their will :)
