That's true. People imagine GitHub provides git, but that's the wrong way of seeing it. They do provide it on your server but the git running on your own computer is from the git project. GitHub does help significantly with the git project, though.

Here's git's official website, which is very good, and was started by a GitHub cofounder, but is run by the git project rather than GitHub: https://git-scm.com/

Honestly...weekends rolling on ecstacy in the early 2000's party scene. Every time i took MDMA made me feel and act much like a non-shy person, and, with habitual use, was an excellent teacher of lessons I could carry into everyday life.

It also made my stutter almost disappear. I don't know of any academic research of MDMA and treatment of stutterint, but there are other anecdotes such as a mention of thid in Alexandre Shulgin's PIHKAL.

I'm working on an alternative. It's a slightly different take, but provides similar functionality of Node.js plus front end code in a packaged binary. Instead of using a weird custom fork of chrome and downloading that for every different binary we just use the system Chrome browser (or install it once for all apps). Eventually we can probably expand to use other Chrome browsers or even other web driver supported browsers which Firefox seems to be building that support out. I just like the idea of using something that's already on the system.

> In Kim Jong Un’s North Korea, for example, the lies have gotten progressively more ridiculous. Once a lie becomes widely accepted, the value of that individual loyalty test declines. Once everyone knows that Kim Jong Un learned to drive when he was just 3 years old, a new, more extreme lie must emerge for the test to serve its purpose. The cycle repeats itself, and a cult of personality is born.

As for the propaganda films with martial arts fighting: I get what you mean, but it sounds a bit less silly when you realize that the US military has been effectively underwriting hollywood films for decades...and the absurd things they portray US military members doing (like, say, almost single-handedly re-activating a WW2 battleship and using its deck guns to blow up alien space ships.)

I had a TRS-80 Color Computer in the 1980s and had a lot of friends with Apple ][, C64 and even one with an Osborne 1.

I was looking through old issues of Byte Magazine and was reminded that most of the computers of that age were pretty similar but that the TI-99/4A was rather different for a few reasons.

One was that the CPU had no registers but instead the TI-99/4A had a small amount of fast RAM that was coupled directly to the CPU over a 16-bit bus. It had an 8-bit bus that interfaced to video RAM but you'd have to use I/O ports to write to it. It makes me think of things that people do where they put an Arduino on an S-100 bus (using GPIO to communicate) or FPGA-based systems where you might make the memory hierarchy explicit. (e.g. instead of having an SRAM cache, have an SRAM scratchpad and explicitly control transfers to DRAM.)

Other home computers of that era had a simple frame buffer or something just a little more complex like what the Atari 400/800 had, if you were lucky you got a few sprites. The TI-99/4A had something more like the tile graphics on the Nintendo Entertainment System but people did some heroic things with it, for instance there was a Logo for the TI that could do turtle graphics by using tiles to emulate a frame buffer with an unusual order... with the detail that you could run out of tiles if you covered too much of the screen.
Virtually everything even slightly abstracted from directly quantifiable tasks: sporting skill, driving skill, intelligence, etc. None of those are measurable without significant confounding or a 'dumbing down' to some adjacent task (that still probably suffers from some degree of confounding via 'teaching to the test'). Sport performance depends on your cohort, driving accident rates depend on your environment, intelligence tests have a learned component, etc. Trying to develop a system that allows rank-ordering of ability along an axis that isn't subject to influence from an irrelevant external factor is impossible.
Just wondering, but how is an OS supposed to achieve this without fsync()ing all writes to memory and being slow as dog$h!t?

Separate from the persistent storage thing, I've wanted traditional file systems that work like this:

* Unit files. The unit of file consistency is the file. The default case. Open, create, close, no other open can read it before close, on close it replaces the old file for all later opens. On crashes, you always get a consistent file, the old version if the close hadn't committed yet.

* Log files. The unit of file consistency is one write. Append only. On crashes, you get a consistent file up to the end of a previous write. No trailing off into junk.

* Temp files. There is no file consistency guaranteed. Random access. On crashes, deleted.

* Managed files. A more complex API is available. Random access. On a write, you get two completion events. The first one is "buffer has been copied". The second is "data is safely in permanent storage".
This is for databases, which really care about when the data is safely stored. The second full completion event might also be offered for other file types, primarily log files.

That covers the standard use cases and isn't too hard to do.
In general, you are right. According to some online state, the Apo store grew from 500 apps in 2008 to around 2M currently. The number of iOS developer are over 400k, coming in second to Android at 800k. I think developer write apps for economic and financial reasons in addition to their innate passion - not for pure ideological reasons. So u less apple does something extremely stupid like 50% cut, this won’t change.
Here are two simple things I’ve been told which had a big impact on me:

* If you struggle with conversations and small talk all you need to do is ask questions. An entire conversation can be you asking a question, listening, and asking another question to what they just said and repeat.

The more someone talks during a conversation, the better they feel the conversation went. If you meet someone for the first time, ask questions, let them talk a ton and they will likely feel the conversation was enjoyable.

* Go to a place like a coffee shop or conference or park and sit for an hour and just watch people. You notice that no one cares. And I mean that in a good way. No one cares what anyone else does. A really shy and awkward person could walk into a coffee shop and feel super awkward about waiting in line and then mumble his order and fumble with his wallet and worry that everyone else is looking and judging them. But truth is no one cares. So don’t worry about random strangers.

There's definitely educational content on TikTok. Things like farming, car maintenance, languages, astronomy. Cooking is particularly suited for this. It's easier to understand a 30s video on how to make roux or butcher a chicken.

Like everything else, there's an algorithm and TikTok will assume you're the average 16 year old teenager when you first join. But give it a day or two and it'll figure out your preferences.

I think the ISDN is a thing required an integrated company to deploy.
For a small extent I'm one, while the "programming" is essentially limited to:

- inserting headings click on an org-mode elisp: link, like a note for a retail order, like

* orders (new)

where new is the link

- inserting elisp: links for org-ql queries, like in book notes, a book a note (all org-roam managed), with queries per author, publisher etc using org-mode drawers as key-value meta-info storage

In the past I've done a bit more, but it prove to be too long to maintain: since until recently my ISP was sending regular monthly bill as a pdf attached to a notification email I've crafted a script (run by MailDrop) what extract (uudeview) the attachment putting it in a relevant dir (I have almost all files org-attached) and adding it to the relevant org-mode note. Unfortunately they choose to send just notification emails without attachments just saying "go to your profile page to download it" and at that point automation is simply too long to be maintained. I've tried a bit https://woob.tech but just for a monthly bill it's not worth the effort.

However my notes are not just notes, are the entry point to all my digital information:

- almost all my files are now org-attached, so to access anything instead of traversing a tree with a filemanager I just hit a key (bound to org-roam-node-find) few relevant chars, tab/enter and the relevant org heading link specific files, or are linked inside or I can run org-attach-reveal case-by-case depending on what I'm looking for;

- I access my mails, partially, via notmuch: and notmuch-search: link types, again in org-roam managed "notes", partially in the sense that a single key bring me to notmuch for tag:unread (unified inbox) and shift+the key bring a new mail composition buffer (notmuch-mua-new-mail), in notes I link relevant threads, individual messages etc;

- notes themselves are almost my documents, they act as metadata-rich directories with a search&narrow UI (both org-roam-node-find, org-ql-view, org-agenda views etc) but are also meaningful by themselves, for instance I have a note per contact, that note link relevant files, mails, logs anything else about a contact, inside the note I can compose a new mail to the contact on click (elisp:(message-mail again)

Emacs/EXWM (like the web + a browser) offer the environment, org-mode the textual language (like html+CSS), elisp and countless packages offer the user-programming language (like js) and the mix my desktop, a poor man's modern classic desktop.

Those "..." that you put in to replace some of the content means we cannot really follow this post.

Statutes are laid out with heaps of criteria, and often complex and/or logic. Cherry picking a few sentences to share here shows that you might have some truth to your claims... but we'd need to read the full statutes and know which jurisdictions you are talking about to really get into it.

I do concur that the fact that ToS is mentioned here makes it worth doing the research and not just saying automatically that it is a civil case, but we'd need much more info do give anything other than the #1 answer from law school for all questions: "It depends."

At the same time, I doubt there are many DAs who would prosecute a criminal case over the email a competitor used to sign up for a service.
The cage was originally there to make them more efficient, spraying microwaves into the room would mean you food takes a lot longer to cook.

Anyway, I don’t recall all the details but 1W from a microwave is probably an underestimate.

WiFi uses multiple separate frequencies and outside of what a microwave should be producing. So it’s significantly more energy to block it than you might think especially when the hub is closer to the device than the microwave.

PS: To be clear this is still a trivial amount of energy, just annoying when reheating food blocks WiFi.
This is one of the things I like so much about Lua, LuaJIT in particular: it's designed around being just another .so file, from another clib's perspective Lua is a library for manipulating a calling stack, and the LuaJIT ffi makes it short work to adapt a header file so that structures and functions can be used from within Lua.

I personally have taken flights with weird departure time like this. A lot of flights from San Francisco to Hong Kong has departure time like this, arriving Hong Kong at around 7am.

I think in general it is just depends on the origin+destination time zone & fight duration, these 2 factors determines the sweet spots of departing, and while there can be a few combinations that works, those few combinations can likely be realized due to various factors.

Other examples involved going from Hong Kong to London (which has similar relation comparing to going from SFO to HKG). I personally didn’t try that but first heard people made mistake like this (getting to the flight one day late) in this combination.
Seems like a bigger managerial problem to disregard employees personal reasons for why they make not want to turn their cam on in the name of an easier measure if anything.

But this is humans we are taking about. Humans have evolved genetically to be maximally flexible in behaviour. Our psychology is learned from role models and repurposed by our cultural institutions[1]. So here we are, discussing a story passed down over generations, to guide our moral values. This is culture, not biology.

This particular story teaches us that we should judge people by their individual intentions. Western cultures tend to judge that way[1]. Most other human cultures will ignore intentions and judge by outcome. They will also punish a whole family or clan, not an individual (except within their own clan or family).

So, according to our culture, we should judge people by their intentions. What about companies? Given that a company has many legal rights of a person, maybe we should judge it like a person - by the goodness of its intentions? Or maybe we can only judge individuals. But then why do so many individuals justify what they do with the needs of a company? Even questions about death, it seems.

In my case something that happens sometimes: Meet someone new, usually the very high social skill kind that can charm anyone into instantly feeling they're their best friend, and have a long, stimulating conversation. A few days later I've forgotten all about it.

A year later, someone I've never met before (right?) hails me and knows all about me. Super awkward. Because they remember it all, effortlessly. Whereas I, social dues paid, forgot all about it again.

With this motor rewinding is even simpler. Just swap the PCB (which contains no electronic, only windings), the rest of the motor can remain in place. PCB manufacture is cheap and extremely efficient, far cheaper and more efficient than manual motor winding.

> makes them very robust to short-term overloads

There’s no reason to believe that these motors will be any less robust. Older motors are robust to overload by virtue of have lots of copper which take a while to heat up, but they have no real ability to detect that overload and prevent the heating effect in the first place. These motors require VFDs to run them, VFDs are perfectly capable of current limiting the power supplied to the coils, to ensure they can never hit a dangerous temperature, thus making them immune to damage caused by overload (they would just shutdown once and freewheel).

> More points of failure, more opportunities for attack, and more ways to enforce planned obolescence? I'm a software developer, and yet I don't think putting more software in everything is a good thing.

Basically every industrial motor that’s been installed in the last 30years (probably more) is powered by a digital VFD running clever software. The efficiency and control gains provided by AC motors powered by VFDs are unreal. No “traditional” motor can even get close. VFD powered AC motors are more energy efficient, more robust, have precise speed control, any zero consumable parts (bearing might be consumables is certain situations).

Unlike older DC motors that have things like carbon brushes that need to be replaced, have speed control achieved by ginormous variostats. Older AC motors are almost useless for anything except specific industrial applications, because you have no speed control, it’s dictated by the grid frequency. VFDs have changed all of this, and made it possible to create motors the size of watermelon that can produce over 300hp.

As for the cloud bit, industry likes the idea of equipment that can monitor itself. A network connected VFD can report all manner of interesting data that can help with health and maintenance monitoring, along with intelligent remote diagnostics. Potential allowing people to accurately predict failure not just in the motor, but also in whatever mechanical equipment it’s powering. Ignoring the security aspect for a moment, that an incredible capability to have built directly into your motors.
I believe the significance or relevance of the "weather topic" depends on location. There are some places where the weather never really changes, and is indeed unremarkable, like southern California. But some regions can have drastic changes in weather, and some places the weather can kill. For example in the midwest US the weather can go from blizzard conditions to sunny and warm in 24 hours or a strong storm can destroy crops and ruin livelyhoods for thousands of farms. In tornado alley a "pop up" severe thunderstorm can throw off tornadoes and level towns. As someone who's lost family members to tornadoes, the weather is a topic I'm interested in.
Each version of Fedora is supported for 14 months, so you can keep it a little behind but still get updates. They also will update the kernel so you’re getting updated hardware new support. With flatpak having up to date desktop applications is not an issue either. For development libraries I’m usually in some kind of a container with a fixed version, so updates shouldn’t much of an issue either.

For example I just installed Fedora 35, I will probably install 36 at some point after 37 comes out, and stay one release behind current. Major upgrades are still relatively safe because of FS snapshots. I just personally prefer a slightly slower pace than “bleeding edge all the time”.

For a server I would just put Alma/Rocky Linux on it.

Surround yourself with good supportive people and avoid those who put you down.

In my younger years, you can't avoid the people who tend to project their insecurities on you: bullies, primadonnas, etc. Schools and workplaces are mixed bags, where often people make friends based on superficial characteristics.

Places where I found supportive people:
* Startup scene
* Church groups
* Tech groups
* Mentorship groups

These folks helped me see life in a more balanced way. People aren't out to get you, they are just thinking about how others think about themselves. Same as you.
