> What do you mean? Did you interrupt the reboot process (eg. repetitive ^C)? Otherwise the OS should flush everything properly.

here’s my best guess: in my setup i have a host running a qemu vm and most of the interesting stuff happens inside the vm. originally that vm image was just 8 GB, but then i got a HDD to dedicate to it. with VM powered off, i partitioned the HDD and then dd’d the VM image onto it. then i booted the VM via KVM passthrough of /dev/sdb…

it booted fine; i ran ‘df’ and noticed that i forgot to resize the fs to the HDD, so i ran resize2fs. 3 days later, i `shutdown` the VM and then `reboot`d the host. the host didn’t actually come back: the power light and activity lights were off. after 5 minutes of this i power-cycled at the wall socket.

host came back up. vm wouldn’t boot. ran fsck from the rescue shell. now it booted, but no services were operational. since i couldn’t login to the vm (ssh broken + password logins had long been deactivated), i shutdown the vm and mounted its fs on the host. ‘df’ showed that the host thought the fs was only 8 GB in capacity.

i don’t think it was outright disk corruption, because the poweroff wasn’t that messy (but i come from btrfs, which has handled like 20 power faults on me w/ zero issue: idk how solid EXT4 is to these things). my best guess is that somewhere along the way, the changes from resize2fs didn’t actually make it to disk, or were overrided with stale in-memory values. maybe when i updated the guest’s kernel some post-upgrade script did something to push the old fs size to disk somewhere. or maybe the host had the old 8 GB fs size cached and flushed that during shutdown/start. unfortunately i’m not sure i’ll ever know.

He most certainly did not. Of all the different takes out there, his is very weak.

There is a very good reason: as he mentions, the chords diversity use in pop songwriting is typically so poor that based only on that, the amount of things considered plagiarism would thus be ridiculous. If the similarities affect almost all dimensions (style, arrangement, rhythm, melody, ...) to the point of being "essentially the same", then it's exactly what people would want the law to exist for.

Can't you make this argument to just bully people you don't like?

If you get a majority of people to say "zzleeper" is actually pronounced "crap bag", then majority rule wins, right, and you must acknowledge people when they call out "crap bag"?

I just don't really see how majority rule should follow. I'm also curious to what extent we allow this to function. Is it just limited to names?
I'm still irrationally hanging on to those days. I usually buy mp3 albums on Amazon and download them, then transfer to my iPhone. Occasionally I run across an album that just will not copy over, it just silently fails in iTunes when I try to drag and drop. I think the latest is Dave Brubeck's Time Out, I have to play that via the Amazon Music app.
> Most smartphones are sold on a kind-of-subscription basis currently

> technically it’s a finance agreement and you own the phone, but in reality people don’t buy phones fully outright and it’s closer to a subscription service than outright purchase for most people

A finance model and a subscription model are two different things. I’m baffled why you’re conflating the two and especially this comment, “it’s closer to a subscription service than outright purchase for most people”.

When you finance a purchase, you agree to make small payments over some period. At the end of the period, assuming your balance is paid off, you own the product. Not the bank. Not Apple. You.

A subscription model is where you pay every month in exchange for the right to use or access something. For example, I wanted to watch some TV shows my friends have been raving about. I subscribed to Apple TV+ for one month, watched both seasons, and then cancelled my subscription. I can no longer watch the show. I have no remaining claim unless I restart my subscription.
> People who live with or near their parents have a lot more support in terms of child care, ability to go back to work, help with chores (buying/changing diapers etc.).

Definitely, but lack of mobility comes with its own (monetary and other) costs, in the modern economy especially.

> We're all on my company's group plan. I haven't seen the kind of expenses you are alluding to.

With most employers, adding your kid(s) to insurance most likely runs a few hundred dollars a month (over what you'd be paying otherwise) in premiums, and for the vast majority of people that'll still come with a large (high-four- or low-five-figures) max-out-of-pocket if something actually goes wrong with any of you. I expect spending ~$25,000 on medical expenses (including the birth and prenatal care, and cost of adding the kid to insurance) by the time a kid's 5 is fairly normal, even if the kid's fairly healthy (it can get so much worse than that if they're not), and that's just one expense. That figure's certainly in line with what I've seen for various friends who've started families in the last few years, ranging from very blue-collar up to other software developers.

There are employers who provide way better (very low max-out-of-pocket) insurance and cover most or all of the premium, even for family plans. Most people aren't employed by those employers, though.

I live in a city with, I gather, remarkably cheap child care. You're still looking at about $8,000/yr/kid if you don't mind a daycare that's not particularly good. If one partner stays home instead, the cost is much higher, even assuming pretty minimal earning potential. We do have family nearby, luckily, and we lean on them for help with child care all the time, but not for dedicated 5-days-a-week 48ish-weeks-a-year care. I'm sure some people get full-time care from family members who'd not otherwise be working, so it's basically free, but I doubt it's the norm.

Admittedly, the worst expenses are front-loaded. Lost income or childcare costs drop a lot when kids start going to school. The initial birth is gonna hit whatever your max-out-of-pocket is with your insurance, which is usually gonna be several thousand, but that's a one-time cost. Unfortunately, a dollar invested the day your kid is born is also worth a lot more than $1 by the time they leave the house, so the fact that it's front loaded isn't exactly a good thing, as far as retirement savings goes.

There's nothing mature about violating contract law. It feels like fraudulent misrepresentation to me. Key aspects of fraudulent misrepresentation[0]:

1) a representation was made

2) the representation was false

3) that when made, the defendant knew that the representation was false or that the defendant made the statement recklessly without knowledge of its truth

4) that the fraudulent misrepresentation was made with the intention that the plaintiff rely on it

5) that the plaintiff did rely on the fraudulent misrepresentation

6) that the plaintiff suffered harm as a result of the fraudulent misrepresentation

It should work for declaring melodies in any system of music that has notation.

Don't you think it had to do with the fact that the internet grew so fast? I mean it is a mixing pot of the near immidiate brain streams of totally unrelated people — mostly in text form, mostly in the heat of the moment.

I'd love to imagine a fruitful discourse that would happen in the reddit posts you quoted, with everybody arguing their points about society rationally and topic oriented without verbally hurting anybodies human dignity. But if it was like that, it would probably not be locked.

Now it has been locked, and as I see it probably nothing of particular great value has been lost, no rare intellectual gems, no thoughtful debate or great discussion — on the other hand however a few people had a nicer day because they didn't have to read stuff that attacks their human dignity.

I am all for free speech. In a country where Nazi paroles are actually banned I am the one that would say talking to Nazis is not useless. What is useless however is to try establishing good discourse in the communicative equivalent of a gas station robbery: Everybody is screaming and all for different reasons.

But over here in Europe we have a fundamental human right to our human dignity. If someone tells you you should die because of your religion, skin color or sexuality, this is a breach of someone elses rights. You have the right to speak freely, but you don't have the right to rob others of their dignity.

If someone can't lead their discourse without robbing others of their dignity, maybe their voice is not one a free society should be willing to hear?

If a company offers a free tier and a paid tier of their product, and the free tier is sufficiently useful, you can bet their salespeople hate it. Even when it’s the thing driving customers to their platform in the first place. They see it as unnecessary competition. While sales leadership may not be the most important people in the org chart, sales focused thinking permeates executive culture. Sooner or later, the that free tier will end up in their crosshairs. Some companies have the discipline to hold out longer, but when quarterly performance is at risk, it’s only a matter of time.

The downvotes on the OP comment and the negativity in the replies is totally baffling to me. The OP's post was interesting and relevant, despite being non-algorithmic examples. Non-algorithmic examples are not required by the title of the article, and are only implicitly the topic of the article's body, and even if it were explicit, that still wouldn't render the OP comment unrelated. It would have been enough to simply talk about the difference between an algorithmic and language-feature solution without implying something is wrong with even posting the latter.
Mariupol: Why Mariupol is so important to Russia's plan
I think yes. judging from historical IO's (active measures etc) RU did give a podium to anyone on both sides of the spectrum. The best way to sow discord in the "enemy" is to amplify both. I remember RT (Russia Today) was often applauded for giving far left talking heads a podium to speak up they would have not gotten on mainstream channels. People from diverse a background and ideology as Slavoj Zizek, Noam Chomsky, Chris Hedges, Daniel Ellsberg, Ed Snowden, etc ... who were known to critic legitimate things the US did the past 30 years (often horrible things). Not because Russia agrees but because it helped divide the enemy.

> Putin seems to believe that the 'eventual' admittance of Ukraine into NATO and potentially the EU and the placement of troops / missiles there

Putin knew very well about the "uncontested borders" rule for new Nato countries, and he knew about all the problems in east Ukraine.

He has also been talking about "nazis" in Ukraine for months.

It was all just a show.
Also, we're more and more moving to the situation where the humans might as well be computers. 1. They don't have the training or judgment to think about your problem and route you in the right direction and/or 2. They are disallowed from doing anything besides what the computer tells them they can do. So you tell them what you want, and if it doesn't fall neatly into one of the enumerated buckets of Things They Can Do, you're out of luck. Reminds me of the Hospital Customer Support scene [1] from Idiocracy.

thanks, great fungi question thread! It's true fungi can digest lignin. Based on our experience and tests done on our roads by the Norwegian Road Authority, our roads have very long durability, most of the time longer than expected from normal roads, so it seems that fungi hasn't been a problem on our roads so far. The lignin is mixed in and stored underground (spread in the 10 inches layer) and some of it will degrade over time and become part of the soil environment. We will need to test other binder formulas more extensively in warmer areas with more fungi, and create a portfolio of binders suitable for all environments :)

We are working working with some awesome scientists at https://www.nmbu.no/en and we will dig deeper into global fungi tactics together with them
Well, the camera is already ~1.5-2K EUR (without lens), thus I think the price already covers it... But if I must put a price on it, I would say ~100-200 EUR, but then it should come with at least 5 years of updates, and it should work on Linux. :)

Also, just supporting some basic features, like shutter and all the exposure settings, shouldn't be that hard... I bet all of these are already implemented, because many cameras have smartphone applications that do allow to control all of these.

Thus, the largest cost would be mostly documentation, packaging and support for the various OS. Which, although might end up being quite a non trivial amount, it could be seen as money well invested in brand building, especially since now, in 2022, only professionals or invested amateurs are buying these dedicated cameras...
>Scientific progress is thwarted by the ownership of data and knowledge because industry suppresses negative trial results, fails to report adverse events, and does not share raw data with the academic research community.

Not to derail the thread but this nicely encapsulates my reservations toward the COVID vaccines, and why I think mandates are egregiously unethical. The raw clinical trial data is still effectively a secret between pharma and the FDA, and both are under immense financial/political pressure to release a "safe and effective" product, not to mention the incestuous relationship between the ostensibly independent FDA and big pharma.
Maybe we should just ban children going outside lest they see an adult doing something unsafe.
So stop streaming and start buying. That's still an option.

I use streaming services for taste testing, but if I really like something and want to own it, I turn to a DRM-free platform (e.g. Bandcamp) to buy from the artists, then use my own solution for playing that music on my devices (in my case Navidrome).

And as a bonus you'll put a lot more money in the pockets of the artists you love.

When I was younger, I read many books by Henri Laborit (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henri_Laborit) -- his work is predominantly in French. As a surgeon and neurobiologist, he wrote a lot about the biology of behaviour. I can't find the interview anymore, but during an interview (also in French) with a Canadian journalist he quipped this: "L'homme est un animal, le problème c'est qu'il parle." (roughly: "Man is an animal, the problem is that he uses language.") And, so, I agree with the essence of your position. But maybe the problem isn't that humans are surprised that other animals feeling/thinking. Rather the problem might be that humans think they actually aren't animals to begin with.

The HR has fairly large bounds... 1.03 to 1.25 so there is increased risk but this still does not tell you if people who consume a lot of sugar substitutes also exhibit behaviors that increase their risk of cancers. Such as also consuming highly processed food.
