The goal of industrial unionism is to organize the entire working class so that everyone gets better treatment. It's a recognition that the goal of unionism should not be only for SWEs to enrich themselves, but rather most importantly show solidarity with all workers who are struggling.

I think the new macbooks are more a proof that cloud streaming won't be needed. Apple is putting unreal amounts of speed in low power devices. If the M9 Macbook could produce graphics better than the gaming PCs of today, would anyone bother cloud streaming when the built in processing produces a result which is good enough. I'm not sure maintenance really plays much of a part, there is essentially no maintenance of local games since the clients take care of managing it all for you.

Massive shared state might be something which is useful. I have spent some time thinking about it and the only use case I can think of is highly detailed physics simulations with destructible environments in multi player games where synchronization becomes a nightmare traditionally since minor differences cascade in to major changes in the simulation.

But destructible environments and complex physics are a trend which came and went. Even in single player games where its easy, they take too much effort to develop and are simply a gimmick to players which adds only a small amount of value. Everything else seems easier to just pass messages around to synchronize state.

I have tinnitus in both ears. Most of the time I’m not aware of it but at times it’s very annoying. I’m very careful to not let my thoughts about it become dark because I can see a very clear path toward depression about it.

I do hope there is a cure on the horizon.
Global Times is published by the Chinese Communist Party.
OK, but Russia withdrew from the ICC. And Ukraine has signed but not ratified. And as Russia can veto a U.N. Security Council resolution referring a crime to the ICC, I'm not sure how this happens? And it seems Russia is not a party to the Rome Statutes either.
// Unlike Mozilla, they don't need to make exceptions for Google.

// They're not like Mozilla that sits 7 years on a ticket.

Suppose a browser is an iceberg. Mozilla has to maintain, improve and develop on the whole of the iceberg. In case of Brave, Google and Chromium developers do maybe 90 or 95% of the iceberg? My understanding is that the Chromium codebase is one of the largest and complex ones ever? I also read somewhere is has a large amount of churn/flux, but not sure.

I'm not saying Brave does not add anything of value, but let's do a fair comparison.

Do they though? Looking at Putin's actions, I wouldn't be so sure.
The death rate in Russia went way up after the fall of the USSR.[1]
Democracy and a free market did not deliver a better life for the average Russian. It's important to understand this, because it's part of why Russia ended up with an autocrat.

I wouldn't trust any of the mainstream apps for sensitive information. On Telegram you have to create a secret chat for each contact/device for your messages to be encrypted end-to-end. Which might protect you from a possibly malicious Telegram in case the implementation is honest.

If the person is involved in the fighting good OPSEC practices are a must like not sharing sensitive info or at least deleting it after you have read it. It's important to preserve plausible deniability.
Given the history of other things turned over to other people in Putin's rule of Russia, I suspect Putin would be more likely to turn land over to successfully supportive farmers than successful farmers, which is what Zimbabwe did.
I would stay away from writing any program in C unless it is absolutely 100% necessary for your use case. For example, if you’re working on a large existing C code base like the Linux kernel.

There are much better modern alternatives to get comparable speed for new projects. Many projects that used to be written in C are being rewritten in either C++ or Rust for better memory safety and reasoning about the memory model.

Disclaimer: I did my PhD (several years ago) in a systems and networking lab and most of the code I wrote was in C. Now for example modern kernel modules tend to be written in Rust if possible, while such an option was not available while I was working there
There's exactly a single independent newspaper left, mostly because prisoners can't access the internet but can subscribe to paper media. In practice, all independent media outlets in Russia use as many platforms as they can, TV Rain and Echo had YouTube channels that I used to visit often. This is really bad.
This was exactly my thought too. I knew how to program before studying, but the structural theoretical things I learned made me a much better programmer for my entire career.

Add in the other subjects, statistics, maths, applied maths and so on, and I think I'm better equipped to solve the problems I am solving.

But my biggest take away from my CS degree wasn't the programming part, it was the theory part.
If one wanted to take the south of Ukraine it’d make a lot of sense to keep their armies distracted on the north end. Just sit outside the cities and shell them while the primary operations hit the softer coastal area. Even Odessa might be ignored, who knows.
It’s a negotiation! Don’t run away, use it to build negotiation muscle even if you don’t progress with it.

If they were just willing to give you 1/3 without negotiating I’d bet they would act the same the negotiating with VCs or customers and the biz would be a disaster!

Use the opportunity to level up and not think like an employee expecting everything to be handed to you on a plate.

I agree with the advice to agree all the parameters of how things will work including who leads and how things get done in all areas. Equity % is just one parameter in a multi variate equation.

This is the propagandist's defense, like liars who say 'we're all liars', and criminals who say 'we all commit crimes', and the corrupt who say, 'everyone is corrupt'.

> It's good to read a diversity of perspectives.

A bland, and in this case, meaningless statement. There are no benefits to reading lies, and there are certainly an almost infinite number of more valuable perspectives to read.
Not quite a year since the CEO of Texas Roadhouse committed suicide while suffering from tinnitus.
Purposely causing nuclear disasters is one way to ensure a country can never join NATO or the EU

Putin doesn't have to occupy the country to "win", all he has to do is set them back to the dark ages and make everyone (who can) flee.

He can't be allowed to get away with this. Ukraine needs a "no fly zone" ASAP
I'm sorry, but what do you think would be the consequence of Russia bombing targets in... Romania, let's say. Considering the US has air defense in the area, I doubth they even could. The situation is hardly comparable.
Actually, we do know Russia's (or at least Putin's) strategic aims: to seize all of Ukraine. His captive news agencies accidentally published them in a pre-planned "victory" editorial last Sunday that was not-swiftly-enough taken down:

The issue here is that HikVision is a Chinese company, and they have been widely known to supply equipment to the government to aid in the suppression of the Uighur people. Same with Dahua.

The next problem is that both these companies operate under a very wide array of brands, hundreds if not thousands of names, some of which you might recognize and may have thought that they were separate. Lorex is one such brand. Many more can be found at https://securitycamcenter.com/hikvision-oem-list/ and https://securitycamcenter.com/dahua-oem-list/ among others.

Next, you have the other companies like Wyze that take Dahua hardware and put their own firmware on it.

So, if you want to use hardware from a company that is not compromised like HikVision or Dahua, the options get much more limited. At that point, you might want to start looking at building your own on top of the Raspberry Pi plus their camera options.

Personally, I'm still looking for someone who has decided to commercialize cameras based on the Raspberry Pi, so that I can buy a whole stack of them at once and I don't have to build them all myself.
The code on the computers has been upgraded, and even the language used to prpgram has changed over the years [1]. Which leads me to believe that the computer has been restarted/rebooted many times in all these years.

I think there may be other computers, right here on Earth, that may be able to at least compete given those criteria.

[1]: From the linked page:

> The CCS originally ran software written in the Fortran programming language, but this has been continually upgraded since its launch (software updates can be transmitted and installed remotely). The current software is written in a mixture of C and Fortran.

The following is fascinating.

> The age of the computer and its codebase has caused problems for NASA in recent years. In 2015 Larry Zottarelli, the last of the project's original programmers, retired, and it was difficult to find a replacement with such in-depth knowledge of what now seem like ancient hardware and design principles.
We have a history of that, unfortunately.
Regime change by the country that successfully defended Syria’s regime? The Russians military strategists should know better than anyone how difficult that can be. Even with western backing.
Yup. It’s not that long of a level but it’s very well-paced and ammo and health are very judiciously rationed out.

The Phantom Queen
Agreed that it will be an objective if only because of it's symbolism but the crux of the attack really seems focused on a southern push while they basically just encircle the cities instead of fighting urban battles. Those are always insanely costly, no matter how well prepared the attack is. Even the US army had an incredibly tough time in Fallujah, and they are the best army in the world. The symbolism is a double edged sword since ukrainians will probably defend it very bitterly especially if they go straight for the city instead of besieging it. So it just makes sense imo that kiev isnt the main focus.

They might even want to cut the country in half, but at any rate they have been advancing really swiftly from Crimea. IIRC they are still advancing there faster than the Americans were advancing in Iraq back in 2003.
or they would just nuke chinese cities?
It could also use some editing and running through spell check, like that comment.

I think lying flat is a luxury and a privileged position. Things can always get worse, and in turn people would get more desperate.
Yeah it's definitely a balance--the big company-wide meetings can be good for context but could also be too broad in scope. On a couple occasions I've enjoyed medium-sized informal get-togethers with my team, and I can sort of pick people's brains. Just having that social environment means I can sometimes talk one-on-one with folks I would rarely interact directly with otherwise.

Why would Russia who lost in Afghanistan and defended Syria’s regime expect to hold something like Kyiv or Kharkov long term via regime change? I really don’t see that happening and I haven’t seen one good explanation from anyone about how they would do that. Syria is the example people are missing not some tiny weak state like Chechnya.

The west had tons of local support in Syria but Russia just had to prop up the state and local military long enough to ‘win’ that war. That’s all the west has to do to ‘win’ in Ukraine.

To me it only makes logical sense for Russia to be feigning a full state takeover like a chess match, with a dual goal of just maintaining Baltic coast and punishing Ukrainians for Euromadien. Otherwise they are crazy and dumb, which they are regardless given their now near total economic isolation, but there has to be some logic here beyond some shortsighted George Bush style ‘regime change’ strategy.
I think yours is a great example of how one size fits all programs are not necessarily what we need. Some children just respond differently to different things.

Calling depression a "funk" is incredibly dismissive of what people like me deal with.

The data I've seen for ECT has it at an 80% effectiveness at long term remission.

Most anti-depressants do have people for who there is a addition of or increase in suicidal ideation, which is why its something prescribing doctors are expected to monitor. This is not dissimilar to heart drugs causing heart problems, etc - by design these drugs influence chemistry in the target region (and probably others because l o l multicellular organisms are complicated) so if they do induce something there's a chance it could be a not great response. So being approved shouldn't be a sign of anything nefarious - most medications have side effects MAOIs are still used today, as is lithium, neither covered by patents but the side effect profiles are much worse than many modern targeted drugs. its not just a "doesn't agree with fine cheese" its a "oh you accidentally ate too much cheese, turkey, ..., time to go to hospital" response. Similarly benzodiazepines are useful for some things (although tolerance and addiction problems mean they're avoided if possible), but those have a "whoops you had something with grapefruit? time to go to hospital" problem as well.
Interesting. I watched both about ten years ago (around the birth of my first child incidentally) Andi remember The Day After a lot while Threads had little impact on me. I think I should rewatch Threads.

I thought the scene in The Day After where the silos open and the missiles go up was the most chilling thing to experience. At that point you've got a couple of minutes until the end of the world ...
I feel like the boxes are comically unintuitive given that it's nearly a 50/50 split on which boxes just there to convey scale.
It's a router/switch/firewall thing. You're building multiple virtual LANs and using them to separate the traffic.

You could implement VLANs in your core switch for the house, maybe using Mikrotik or other managed switches that are VLAN-capable. That might allow you to use a simpler router that doesn't need to understand how

You could implement VLANs in your router or gateway or firewall, depending on your hardware. In that case, you might be able to use simpler and less expensive unmanaged switches.

Exactly how those devices implement VLANs is going to differ somewhat. It might be easy to configure a switch for VLANs, where a given port or group of ports are on one VLAN, and a different port or group of ports might be on a different VLAN. Implemented at the router/gateway/firewall level, you might have to make those assignments based on MAC addresses, and/or internal IP addresses if you can tie that into your DHCP service.

VLANs can be complex to set up, depending on where and how they are configured. And they're not a panacea. But they can be very helpful, if implemented correctly.
At the end of the day these arguments always come down to people thinking they're superior than the peasants who "need unions", possibly because they can't imagine organizations where people work for the welfare of people other than themselves.

It's a nice, kinda elegant study. I'm not convinced by the results that a 'map' sense need be involved, could be a 'how far did I go' sense that provides a good enough proxy. I'd need to see movement path analysis to be convinced. The one individual's in the supplementary figure suggests migration to the foraging grounds was higher speed and linear, which would allow for a decent mental model of total displacement. The return trip appears to be more meandering/tortuous, as if foraging is occurring after the turnaround point, which would provide some buffer to increase either linearity or speed if/when necessary to 'stay on schedule'.

My impression is that troll farms work like much of social media, the vast majority of things they do have zero impact on the world but a very small percentage of their efforts goes viral. I think people like to inflate their actual impact for partisan political reasons.

Still I’ll give an example of very effective propaganda. I was linked to this video a few years back made by “independent Canadian Journalist” Eva Bartlett. She oozed credibility, she was a westerner speaking at the UN and had legitimately been to Syria herself. It appealed to all my biases, she spoke against a mainstream media conspiracy to coverup war crimes to promote war in the Middle East. She even got featured by modestly popular pundit Jimmy Dore. Her video has been watched around a million times or so on YouTube.

https://youtu.be/g1VNQGsiP8M
https://youtu.be/Z9F-cHc5Qog

Regardless of her sincerity, what isn’t obvious at all from these videos is that she’s on Russia Today’s payroll:

https://www.rt.com/op-ed/370618-syria-sources-bartlett-rt/am...

Now I won’t comment on the credulity of her claims, but I found it remarkable how when I first watched her video I had NO IDEA she was on RT’s payroll. She was called “Independant Canadian Journalist”. I like to think I’m hard to manipulate but man the Russians played me like a fiddle with this propaganda!
Let's take a step back: Chimpanzees may be using medicine! How is the efficacy of their medicine a question? Didn't you read the chimps' double-blind trial results (published in Nature, of course)? If the chimps built an airplane, would we say 'but it doesn't fly'?

Or in case you mean you are an anti-chimp-vaxxer: In this case I agree: Don't trust chimp medicine! It's a fraud!

When the recourse is that you can easily pick up a new job, usually with a raise, the union doesn’t have a lot to offer.

It seems everyone is resigned to crunchy/gooey 90s style networks for these. I guess an alternative could be some sort of VPN dongle to put in front of each one.
Not really true.

For industries where you need x human labor to do x amount of defined work, unions definitely help employees. Companies have an incentive to extract as much labor while keeping wages the same or lowering, leveraging peoples need for a job. Also for a lot of positions in those industries, the pay is low enough to put significant friction for employees into doing things like switching jobs, especially when employees start getting specialized and becoming limited to a certain industry, where all the companies are incentivized to do the same thing.

However, for industries where you want to select for the best and brightest to advance tech, unions are a bad thing, because they effectively remove the capability of the companies to do this.

You could make an argument that both of those cases should be governed by a common principle, and that technology development is generally better for society, so unions are generally a bad thing, but that is a pretty complex issue.
There is usually a 'viewing' in mortuary chambers where people/close family can visit the deceased a few days before burial.

There is no open casket during the ceremony though. That part seems to be fairly specific to North America.
