Windows PE/To Go has been a thing for a while now, it's a shame you can only make bootable Windows USB disks using the enterprise editions. Though Macrium Reflect (and possibly others) will let you make a USB "recovery disk" that might run the firmware update programs you'd like to run.

edit: Windows PE won't do .msi, but .exe should work: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-hardware/manufactur...
Or, you could buy from hardware vendors that do the reasonable thing.

Those who know of such HDD/SSD vendors (esp. those supporting lvfs) please chime in.

Are you not aware of the steep COVID invection s around the globe?

Germany is now at 150000-200000 daily new cases.

We have not had this before. This means that you chance to get it and perhaps you being sick for 1-3 weeks is much much higher than before.

It was just something I wanted to share so that you might plan ahead for this case or weir a mask to reduce the risk and have a great holiday.

And for the last few weeks way more people got COVID around myself than ever before.

This is also, next to intensive care capacity, a big risk if for example too many people from police, medical sector, fireman get sick in parallel.
The internet also contains "so mamy duplicate or almost duplicate" articles, and yet Google can provide a useful search for Internet articles. You're telling me it's somehow impossible to achieve the same thing for a company's intra - even though it has several orders of magnitude fewer articles to index?

One quick and easy way to improve Confluence's search would be to rank often-visited articles higher than rarely-visited articles.
This is extremely cool; it's the best explanation I've come across yet of the Interstallar visualisation.

And yet frustrating - I have dangling questions. Why does the ISCO have a fuzzy inner edge? What is the fuzzy semicircle of light that appears below the accretion disk, outside the photon sphere, but inside the ISCO, in only the lower half of the image?

I get less than half a second of motion for these images, and I can't make them restart. It would be super-cool to get motion video that ran continuously, or at least in a loop.
It can be both pretty amazing and massively failing at times? I mean 10 years ago we would not think the FSD beta is possible, even if it is not reliable enough to be used as self driving.
No, this looks at Europeans with Rose tinted glasses.

I think there is innate tribalism in all of us. We can all rationally fight it and we rationally know what is morally the right thing to do. But it is in our core psychology to look for similarities/differences and identify as close/distance to other people.

The Ukrainian government has also made an amazing job at galvanizing EU social media around this. The message is clear, it is us, your european brothers and sisters who are suffering right now, please help.

In many ways the Ukrainians have succeeded in an information war where the Georgians, Armenians, Sirians, Yemenis have been unfortunately less successful.

I can think of a thing or 50 that Norway does different tk the US that might explain their higher levels of educational achievement and better mental health.
To oversimplify a bit, VNC sends a sequence of images of the screen that are then painted. It optimises this pretty well - only sending the fragments of the screen that change, allowing translation of blocks (e.g. for window dragging), but it's a pretty simple way of transmitting screen information. That's also a good thing because it is completely agnostic to the UI and the client and server.

RDP has a much more complex set of window painting commands - instead of sending 'this block of image goes here' it sends 'draw a window here with this decoration'. It's much more complex but also more performant as a result.

Easy. I've bought it in Kiwi in Hemsedal (Ulsåk) several times, for example. All Eco Market shops in Oslo as well (run by Ukrainians/Poles btw).
Staples in the US are very cheap and many older generations ate them into old age. The real risk is eating at restaurants and eating snacks that didn't exist 50 years ago.
I disagree on summer time, summer time makes they day on which it's possible to do outdoor activities in the evening come about three weeks earlier than without it. And sunlight around 5am when virtually everyone is asleep is much more useless than having it late in the evening.
There are two independent issues that people have with DST.

The first issue is that DST causes general havoc with all kinds of activities that happen at night, by altering the length of the day and creating missing or repeated hours. This is an unintended negative consequence of how DST works.

The second issue is that DST gives day workers jet lag twice a year by altering sleep/work schedules. Here we have a legitimate choice whether we want to change the schedules in the winter or prioritize consistent sleep schedules instead. This negative consequence arises as a result of changing the schedules relative to absolute time, not as a result of DST per se. DST is merely the vehicle for enacting that change.

Heart of Darkness doesn't show or tell you what the actual horrors are, as far as I remember. Isn't it kind of psychological horror that only hits you after you finish it and then start really reflecting on what probably/possibly happened?

I think it's a bit of a weirdly paced novel though, and from recollection it's really easy to miss certain implied meanings if you miss a single sentence or so towards the end.

FSD - Tesla’s auto-drive that is anything but “Full” and essentially a live beta, and a $10k option.

FSD Beta - Tesla’s latest FSD software that’s somewhere between alpha and beta status. Free for those who qualify, request access, and have paid for FSD.
Have you considered taking steps to possibly improve your own health instead of wishing that a government or corporation would require everyone around you to wear a face covering indefinitely for your own personal benefit?
That's completely wrong. People's compassion at least in Europe is very localized and tribal.

Syrian civil war started ~2011, Russia joined in September 2015.

Most of the Syrian refugees came to Europe during the summer of 2015, before Russia even joined.

If we were to be nitpicky, we can even say the number of refugees from Syria in Europe decreased after Russian intervention.

It could be that your ISO doesn't have the required drivers for the storage controller to see the actual SSD.

Go straight to Bogleheads.org and other sites of the type.

It's awesome you recognize that you're living paycheck to paycheck. If you manage to cut a little bit of expenses or earn a little bit more through a side-gig, you will have money to invest.

Investing in the right places (like your company's 401k) can bring immediate returns through things like the employer match. Once you establish a foothold, just keep on keeping on. The savings pile will grow and hopefully you'll get an occasional raise to step things up.

It really works.

My family is now at the point where 1 kid is out of college and 'off the payroll', one kid is in college and one coming up. These can be expensive years, so prepare for them. (Now!)

Dave Ramsey, Bogleheads, etc. are giving you the straight story. If you live below your means and make financial gain one of your hobbies, you have a good chance of accomplishing what you want.

Good luck!
As a French, I find this quite funny because Renault tried for years not to sell their batteries but lease them (Zoe's mostly, which was the most sold EV in Europe for quite some time).

Tesla never offered the rental option for their batteries b/c they trusted their quality and reliability (Renault's batteries were and are quite subpar).
I think in Russians living abroad majority might oppose Putin or at least want nothing to do with him.

I imagine hating Putin and the country he created might be one of the more common reasons of living abroad.
VNC handles the display as, essentially, just a stream of screenshots. RDP is actually quite sophisticated and has knowledge of a lot of the underlying windowing system information it can work with. It also treats the remote client as a completely separate display from the local, allowing it to have different resolution and DPI settings and even use multiple monitors appropriately. That's without even getting into that Windows can have multiple logged-in user sessions and RDP will correctly take over the right one regardless of who is using the local terminal and forward the running session instead of whatever happens to be on the attached monitor.

Basically, VNC is a cheap hack and RDP is a well thought-out remote graphical terminal.

Unfortunately DST doesn’t just disappear because one country decides to get rid of it. That also creates a lot of weird issues if your program deals with time from the past, you have to know if a specific region, at a given date, was considering DST or not to be accurate with the local time, which can be messy with that type of flip-flop decisions!

No, it's just an illustration, of a dead-common thing in EE being obscure and hard to find here. Most people wouldn't even know what it is.

I explained why middle easterners are often better integrated: they've often been here for longer, and they're usually here to stay. EE right wingers overestimate how much they have in common with us, and have the usual hang-ups about Islam.
I feel like ucranians are fellow europeans. I guess it's the same for Norweigians.

If you look for a well-defined and rational response, I don't think there's one.

Anyway, I'd like to say that people is being too cynical about this. There has been, and there are right now, many efforts in Europe for supporting and integrating non-european refugees and inmigrants.

This "oh look, they care because they're white", well, there's a lot of selection bias right there, and I don't think we should be sorry to care about people we feel it's the same to us.

There has been hundreds of thousands of non-european people inmigrating to Europe for years, but somehow we're hypocrites now.
Humans are tribal in hundreds of different dimensions.

For example, If two people riding Harley motorcycles and two other people driving converted camper vans all arrive at a rest stop at the same time, it is likely that they will be friendly with each other based on the type of vehicle they arrived in.

But religion,politics,race,gender,age,nationality all can be big ones as well. Syria hits a lot of those.

It doesn't index each resource. Only the page text of the URLs you actually navigate to in a tab.

So this is fine. It won't index a JSON response in an SPA, as search result (tho it does save it), but it will index (and re index) the actual page content, as you browse it and as it updates (eg dynamically loads in an SPA).

Try it out, you'll have an easier time understanding how it works (as long as the current tag release works, heh :) if not try a previous tag).
A lot of comments here about racism against Muslim refugees and the lack of racism against Ukrainian refugees.

We are only three weeks into this war and refugee crisis. The far-right here in Western Europe have not yet had time to come up with reasons to hate Ukrainian refugees. The far-right is actually busy defending Putin's invasion and spreading pro-Russian and anti-Ukrainian propaganda. It is only a question of time before this anti-Ukrainian propaganda targets Ukrainian refugees.

Another thing is that there were plenty of similar job boards for Syrian refugees in Denmark and Germany. Syrian refugees with dev skills were welcomed with open arms by our IT industry.
I've heard this "one year of experience 10 times" phrase before. It seems to mean different things in different contexts to different people. Can you explain what it means to you and the implications?
Even that can achieved by changing the time you do things. Like schools can be 1 hour early at a particular time of the year instead of changing time for everybody else.

Honestly I can't think of a single legitimate reason why you would want to hang onto daylight saving time.

>Currently there is growing Euro hate to all Russians.

there are a lot of reasons for that. There is really something non-human in Russians attacking Ukrainians. Even for me, a Russian well familiar with history and overall situation there, it is still hard to believe that Russians so easily went into that war. That makes anybody naturally question their existing perception of what Russians really is, and that is where the "xeno" feeling comes from.

Just look how pretty much whole Russia celebrates the "Z" symbol of the invasion

https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/2022/03/09/letter-z-rus...

There is no meaningful difference between Germans celebrating swastika and their leader in 1939 and Russians celebrating "Z" and their leader in 2022. Europe's reaction isn't surprising here.
I have found that on my machines, they provide a means to disable the security check and allow the downgrade anyway.

This is a real issue though, there is the risk of failure during the procedure, less so than it once was, but then the risk that the update actually performs worse than the previous version.

The latter I don't know how we resolve.

An S-expression file with a newline after each top-level expression has the same property. So that's not really a problem.
I've seen this sentiment a few times. I'm not totally against it, and a better analogy is always worth considering.

I'm sure it's not the final iteration of analogies we use to garner more budget or help clients understand that always pushing for the cheapest solution isn't the best idea. But I think it does a reasonable job. It abstracts away the finger pointing of "you coded it badly" vs "you never give us enough time to do it well."

Taking terms to a client like clutter, bad code, spaghetti code, and other more direct terms I've seen lead straight to uncomfortable questions about capability, experience, and so on.

I think if it's explained with the idea of compound interest it conveys the growing impact over time if it's left undealt-with, and it's an analogy most people are familiar with.

It's definitely easier to push back on taking a shortcut using the debt analogy than by saying it will force us to make their product badly and please pay us for the privilege.

I totally get what you're saying, personally I will always speak my mind and put my foot down where appropriate, I avoid working with people that constantly just push for more with less. Even then though people still often want things done and don't understand what they're asking for.

It's definitely better than the house-building analogy that causes eyes to roll so far back they roll out of the boardroom and down the hallway. Trying to explain how code complexity really works puts everyone to sleep and no one understands it anyway.

I'd be really interested in a compendium of boardroom analogies come to think of it. Could be a fun read.

> it's a shame you can only make bootable Windows USB disks using the enterprise editions

I remember in the Windows XP era, there was a third-party piece of software called BartPE.

With BartPE you could create a preinstalled environment with WinXP Home even.

Here is a page someone wrote with some details about BartPE: http://www.optimizingpc.com/miscellaneous/manual_bartpe.html

Wikipedia:

> As with Windows Preinstallation Environment, BartPE operates by loading system registry files into RAM, and not writing any registry changes back to boot media. Thus, neither operating system requires an operational hard drive or network access. This also allows them to be run from non-writable media such as a CD-ROM.

> […]. The Bart PE Builder application interprets and condenses files from a Windows setup CD to create the BartPE installation. It can built from a Windows XP Pro or Home Edition CD, or from a preinstalled Windows XP version (without a CD).
