Slf4j is definitely the way to go, but it is still VERY hard for typical enterprise devs to get it working correctly, which means that both your own code and then all the dependent libraries are all on the same page w/ regard to what level and format the logs are printed, and to where they're going.

The problem is that even if your own code uses SLF4j correctly as a logging API, and then wires up the correct logging implementation (e.g. Logback, Log4j2, etc), and then finally include the necessary SLF4j "bridge" libraries, you still need to ensure that every 3rd party transitive dependency explicitly excludes Commons Logging, Log4j, etc libraries.

It's a mess, and almost none of projects that I've worked on over the years got it 100% right the first time.

That being said, I see the exact same problem in a lot of the modern Python and Node code that's out there. It just becomes too complicated because there are too many logging options, and when a modern project - in any language - now relies on dozens of 3rd party libraries, then it's likely you're ending up with 5 different incompatible logging implementations in your final runtime, all doing their own thing.

It is a perfect example of the famous XKCD "multiple competing standards."

You may be correct about the companies having a clear business model, but it doesn't necessarily mean that the expected profits will materialize.

For example, Walgreens partnership / investment in Theranos was spectacularly costly [0].

This is pretty much the case with .net now. I build zero install systems that carry the appropriate framework with them.
If you use AdGuard Home instead of Pi-Hole, there is a version of this list for that, too:

(Though it is included as a preset, already, in AdGuard Home.)
right, of course no source, just more insults :shrug: whatever
Not needing to set up a build system for development is a huge reduction in complexity for smaller projects.

Bundling then becomes an optional step that can be implemented for a production build. If it's only JavaScript then a simple `deno bundle index.ts` without any configuration should suffice.

Everything I have seen out of Trudeau is that he is at the beck and call of special interest groups, not the Canadian people.

I wouldn't go so far to say he's a puppet of China's government, but he's certainly timid with them.
I would be willing to bet that most of the politicians/ceos/etc that currently lie to everyone's face and went to harvard/yale didn't need to cheat their way through and didn't bother more often than not.
Didn't he already capture Zaporizhzhia?
The pebble bed reactors are pretty much useless for making weapons grade material.
The design was built with non-proliferation in mind.
If they wanted to do that they would have just built more of their LWR design.

What do you mean there isn't enough fuel? Not enough pellets/pebbles? Well ofcourse.. there is only 2 operational reactors right now... not enough uranium? Yeah no. There is way more than enough uranium to fuel their projected fleet and it's not like they are building it tomorrow, it's probably going to take until around 2050 to complete.

China has a track record of saying they will do something and then actually doing it, I'm inclined to believe they will make good on that number.

I get that people don't like China but lets be serious, no-one else is actually as serious about nuclear power as them right now.

Indeed, since the evaluations are handed out before the final grades are tabulated, they can only be based on expected grades. But expected grades are still a better performance metric than a coin toss.

> Shouldn’t you help the actual imperfect humans in front of them, rather than imagining a bunch of perfectly rational Platonic objects?

As a functional, working class adult, I carry a conviction that specific aspects of my life would improve if I was forced to give up a portion of my autonomy by an external party for what some people may term "my own good." And I don't mean this in the sense of finding enjoyable hobbies, but in doing the things that need to be done for the maintenance grounded in hard physics and biology, such as exercise and diet - two things I have little interest in, and for which I have no luxury of external deadlines for. There are limits to certain other strategies. Amphetamines don't exactly help with falling to sleep on time, for example.

For some reason, I believe this in spite of the issues my upbrining caused me, and it gives me conflicting feelings. As other commentators have pointed out, there can be numerous lifelong problems stemming from how one was raised by their parents. In my case, I suffered numerous traumas that I believe I have yet to fully move on from. Criticizing those methods, or the lack of them in the present, makes me feel like I'm shifting the blame to the world around me instead of taking responsibility for myself, as "an adult".

Yet, at the same time, I feel as if I can't be trusted to just expect myself to do the right thing because I've gained financial autonomy and the "adult" label. There are times when the perfect solution makes its appearance ("just" exercise daily), and yet the drive to pursue it fades before my eyes. There are disorders of the mind that are known to interfere with the very capability of someone to take responsibility, such as ADHD.

I sometimes imagine what it would be like to have access to a set of data on the exact dates and times of how people exercise each day, or how they plan their meals (knowing full well that those insights might not necessarily work for me), and the resulting health statistics/ages lived for those people. In some racing games, there is a "ghost" feature that shows you the runs of the players with the best times, to use as a guide for your own strategies. With the current Internet, at times it feels like there's only a massive pile of conflicting information and no sense of direction, which ignores what actual people ultimately do with their lives.
I've worked with .NET in the past few years and I've been pretty happy with it. The syntactic sugar is great, and it seems like we get interesting new features every release. My favorite from .NET 6.0 has to be the integration of dotnet-format as a subcommand. I regularly use vim so being able to format code without opening an IDE has been really helpful.
Yes, but also have the means to reliably not have kids for the first time in history too.
So this is allowing remote git repositories to be treated as a regular filesystem. I really cannot think for good use-cases for this.

Maybe to use existing file-based indexing and search tools? I must be missing prime use-cases here.
As someone else pointed out, we aren't doing enough of these to iron out the kinks. If it's literally copy it might be going much better just because it's second.

Now we should figure out where to build third! It should go even better.
Ask HN: Cellular Data Options for MQTT
Options for data only SIMs seem to be all over the place. Google fi charges $10 / GB for additional data only SIMs, Twilio Super SIMs are $0.10 / MB, and now Verizon is offering 5G Home Unlimited for $50 month-to-month.

The use case I'm trying to solve for is an urban location where sensors are sending MQTT data on an occasional basis and not using more than 1 or 2 GB per month. At the moment, the Google fi SIM is the most cost effective, but it isn't scalable in a business context.

What are others doing to resolve cellular data connectivity at a reasonable price?
If you changed every part of a boat, does the original EOL of the boat still make sense ?

Yes there are unremplacable parts in a nuclear reactor, but if it's measured to be safe to continue, then there is no reason to respect the initial EOL.
You're being argumentative instead of clarifying what you're trying to say. If you've read the other comments in this thread, then you can see there are things being sold as woks that have a flat bottom on the outside but still have a curved surface on the inside. Do these also offend your notion of what may be referred to as a wok?
Once, I tried a grading scheme in which the grade is either a weighted average of assignments and exam grades, or the exam grade, whichever is higher. My reasoning was the same as in the article -- I thought this scheme would measure what matters most.

However, I found that quite a few students skipped assignments and also did poorly in the exam. Of course, the strong students sailed through either path. But the weaker ones also matter. And, after all, the point of grading is not just to assess. It is also to motivate students, and to signal to them which things are important.

Unless the class is quite strong, it makes sense to balance assignments and examinations. And, as in the article, it is helpful to pick a scheme and stick to it.
Come to think of it, I'm not sure I've ever seen a strawwoman. Maybe as part of a straw couple as decoration at a harvest market or something
If it's a Mobil station, I've found that one of the buttons surrounding the screen will mute it.

Originally the button had "mute" clearly printed on it, but it seems to have been replaced with a totally blank keycap. It still works though.
I'm in the UK and I've never knowingly been in a home that has an induction cooker or know anyone in my personal life with one. Gas is perhaps 90% of what I experience, with the occasional halogen.
It's important to understand that on a gas range or regular electric range, the knob controls power, i.e. the amount of heat you're putting into your cookware per second. And if those two are your only options, then the gas range is much better than an electric range, because you can change the amount of power very quickly, there's no lag.

But with an induction range, or a ceramic glass range, the knob controls temperature, i.e. there's a thermostat somewhere that regulates the power. And this gives you a lot more control, especially at lower temperatures. But it's not unique to induction ranges, any ceramic glass range can do the same, although they have more "lag" than an induction range.

> Ironic that the best things on the internet, sci-hub and libgen, are brought to you by our Russian friends, isn't it?

My understanding is that the creator of Sci-Hub is a Kazakh national, a country that is emphatically not part of the Russian Federation and is not particularly keen on joining it.
Sounds like you maybe you have one of these fancy electric infrared broilers. I did not know these existed for electric ovens. I certainly have never seen one.
Your post though isn't providing a single example of a "structural error" which could occur in ZFS and wouldn't be fixed by the checksums and redundancy data.

What's your point here? That ZFS can't correct logic bugs in it's own implementation that would lead to structural errors? (What system could?)
> Of course, there are cases where .NET will lose to Go, Python, and Node. This is especially true when it comes to “cold starts” because of the nature of the just-in-time compilation to machine code (plus other nuances of how .NET processes start) and thus making it unsuitable for certain types of applications such as CLI tools or serverless functions that require near instant response for a single request.

Not really dispelling the notion that ".Net is MS Java" there, but I suppose similar technologies will have similar performance, even if it's politically impossible to acknowledge the lineage. Also, responding to claims that your runtime is slow by bringing up Python, Node, and Go is conceding the point that C is faster, but I find it especially humorous that Java isn't explicitly mentioned. Can't compare Our Product to Brand X, I suppose.

Russia could sign a massive peace and disarmarment treaty with NATO today, and the European countries would be very happy to reduce their defense budgets and buy oil and gas from Russia.

China could do something similar. Nobody has any interest in invading China or Russia. They don't because they have ambitions for power.

> If we look at history NATO, it is not a defensive alliance. It is a mostly defensive alliance.

When has it attacked anyone?

> Why does China get anxious when the US tries to shrug off its hegemony by making new nato like groups, supply arms, and ammunition.

Those countries join willingly, and in fact there is a line to get in the door (e.g., in NATO, Georgia and Ukraine). That's different than hegemony.
You need to choose a play field and stick to it. If the argument is legal as you suggest then Thawte must be supported for compliance with the law. If your play field is "free speech" then thier right to make a statement must also be respected. In either case Thawte must be supported.
Who did NATO attack and when?
They were investing in Theranos right before this, and they're undergoing a massive shrinkage right now. Forgive me if I don't innately trust Walgreen's business savvy at the moment.
Storage is a solved problem, and only needs to be built out. No such "breakthrough" is needed.

Storage cost is falling much faster, even, than solar and wind generation. The only question today is whether to put a euro into solar or wind now, or into storage that will be much cheaper next year. Thus far, in most places, the former is still favored. More carbon tax can help move the choice the other way.

As solar and wind costs continue down, synthesizing methane and kerosene from captured CO2 and synthetic hydrogen will shortly be cheaper than mining, refining, and transporting them, even without the carbon taxes. Synthesis of those, and of ammonia and hydrogen itself will absorb unlimited "overbuilt" peak generating capacity, and stocks of all of those serve also as storage. That their round-trip efficiency is less than, say, hydro or batteries matters little where they rarely need to be used for that.
smartdisk anyone?
You end up using P/Invoke any time you need to control hardware. In the last few months I needed to use P/Invoke to control cameras, motors, and compute FFTs with the GPU.

You need to use them if you need to control raw GDI objects like bitmaps.
You don't really get eye contact unless the person's video is in the same location as your camera, or you use software eyeball adjustments to turn "eyes looking down at screen" into "eyes looking at the camera" (see "FaceTime attention correction" setting).

And if you're in a zoom call with 4 people, you're looking equally at everyone when you look at the camera. You can't tell if someone is looking at you, you can't tell if someone is looking at someone else. VR avatars could actually look around to different people in a virtual meeting.
Agreed.

I had a web app in 2006 handling 20k RPS on three dual core/2GB servers without breaking a sweat. This included per-server connection pooling to MSSQL and lots of UDP traffic on top of memcached. It was rock solid.
This is what I'm saying. People saying Nazis are okay as long as they're killing people I'm told to hate. I've spent lots of time in Ukraine and Ukrainian is my 3rd language. I have many friends there, but unfortunately I couldn't take my ex there to visit because she's black and it would be an issue. Their former president Yushchenko declared a famous Nazi as a national hero. It's most certainly an issue there.
The first sentence makes sense, though. On the Maslow’s pyramid, democracy is quite high compared to… “basic quality of life”, for lack of a better word. You can’t develop a proper social mechanics when you’re starving.
Is this some kind of ignorance joke? I must be missing the punch line.
Technically this is the various, increasingly dangerous zfs import commands though.

The point of those is that the only time a pool is truly unusable is when you can't even import it.
I gotta say. The platform looks like it was made by a smart engineer that has never talked to a real person before.

This is like saying there's no gun crime in the US because there are lots of guns there.
If you have a goal that cannot be evaluated... how do you know if you're achieving it? How do you know if you're improving or worsening?

Evaluation is necessary. It doesn't have to be quantitative, we all know there are infinite problems with purely quantitative measures of human behavior, but evaluation itself is fundamentally part of any goal.
Figures-of-speech allow for a broad range of comparison. As mentioned already, several key SEAL traits such as:

presence in conflict; mental strength; role as specialists; frontline protection work keeping regular people safe; tenacity and dedication

..are also key traits of vastly disparate things like online moderation.

Figures-of-speech referencing those other qualities are perfectly valid.
Yep, exactly. Chesterton's fence is a worthwhile thought experiment, but a lot of things that get justified with "we do it this way because it's been done this way" are known to cause harm.

The bigger problem is that this change is really stinking hard. In addition to whatever subject material you're trying to teach, you also have to re-train your students, because they're going to default to "an A- is a 93%, a B- is an 84%, etc", and somehow "things graded with more points were graded with more care"
And the hundreds of thousands that have died over the past couple decades as we turn people's homes into war torn countries?
Putin seems to be rather shutting down web services in Russia. It's probably easier to control a narrative through TV (a medium that already existed 33 years ago) than through messy social media.

So just in terms of the current crisis, I'd say this invention is arguably doing more good than bad on average (allowing refugees to connect to relatives, coordinating help, enabling OSINT, various projects to inform Russian citizens, like the website with advice for how to talk to Russian relatives who are in denial,...).
Does the target system need a CLR interpreter already installed?
Large Companies like Epic don't by smaller companies like Bandcamp because they want the revenue stream that comes in from Bandcamp. They want the technology, engineers (acqi-hiring), data, or to kill possible competition. Keeping Bandcamp operating would take away from their main reasons from buying them. My personal guess is they want the technology + engineers for some new feature set they want. They won't want any bad press + they need time for planning/organizing before actually doing anything.

This is my guess of what will happen...
You know, I suppose I was a bit overly reductive. Would it be more accurate to say no one wants to pay the market rate for this ride, not the rider, and not us, so we'll just lie to you through omission? If your employer didn't tell you how much they paid out for your work, would you think of them as an honest company?

Yeah I'm fighting with PNC right now. But apparently my paypal account was still pointed at them and charged $4 so now they want a $36 overdraft fee and also won't close the account until it's finished "pending"... I honestly can't believe banks get away with overdraft fees. Damn I miss Simple.
And which solution is that? Lithium ion batteries? To put this in perspective, global lithium ion battery output [1] annually doesn't amount to 1 hour's worth of US electricity usage (500 GWh). Hydroelectric storage? You essentially need to repurpose an alpine lake as a dam. That's geographically dependent, and it's dubious it'd scale well as viable hydro sites become more and more remote. The remaining things like electricity-to-gas, or thermal storage only exist in prototypes, and might not even be feasible let alone viable.

In response to your edit:

> As solar and wind costs continue down, synthesizing methane and kerosene from captured CO2 and synthetic hydrogen will shortly be cheaper than mining, refining, and transporting them, even without the carbon taxes. Synthesis of those, and of ammonia and hydrogen itself will absorb unlimited "overbuilt" peak generating capacity, and stocks of all of those serve as storage.

Nobody has successfully built a grid-scale energy-to-gas plant, ever. It remains the stuff of prototypes. This approach is very much in the "hypothetical" phase. There are serious unsolved problems in energy-to-gas:

* It needs a source of carbon to convert H2 to methane. This could come from biofuels, but those aren't available in sufficient supply.

* Producing large quantities of hydrogen without CO2 emissions remains difficult. Almost all methane comes from steam reformation (CH4 + 2O2 -> CO2 + 2H2), which emits carbon dioxide. Electrolysis can't be done effectively.

Currently, power to gas storage is way more expensive than either lithium ion or hydroelectric storage and it's unclear whether it'll ever be cheaper than existing options.

It would appear that Richard Rothstein doesn’t have kids, or was privileged enough to send them to private schools.

De facto private segregation is largely the result of integrated public schools and busing. As schools integrated, parents perceived that educational outcomes were declining, and they fled to the burbs. This drove up prices and largely kept black families out. This continues to this day in many metros where the young start their adult lives “in the city,” and once their kids start reaching school age, head to suburbia.

What sucks is that none of this will work once the manufacturers figure out DoH.
You don't want to "fast track" nuclear security and this is not something you can iterate by building unsafe plants first. Even as it is, people don't want a nuclear plant in their backyard and it's a long process to find and secure a suitable location.

You'd need huge amounts of capital with big risks and little profits foreseen. The track record from the latest western projects is horrible so I don't see how it would be possible to get the backing now.
