This entire paragraph reinforces what's mentioned elsewhere: that modern people are completely divorced from what the military is actually required to do and how it does it.

Why does every person on an aircraft carrier need to be physically fit, follow orders, and be able to put others or the mission ahead of themselves? Because under fire, in a casualty (fire, flooding, etc.) those technically apt, out of shape people die and get other's killed. I need to know you can put on the SCBA, carry smoke curtains and hang them, etc. No, we don't have dedicated fire fighters or casualty handlers; in a SHTF situation everyone needs to pitch in. There isn't room for dead weight.

To go further, I haven't found that those "conscientious engineer" profile people are even worth the time. The people who we get into the jobs are often far more competent than you would give them credit for, while still being fit and capable of taking orders. We get plenty of that profile in my jobs (I used to be one if I'm being honest) and though they excel at the technical aspects of the job they are so bad at everything else that's required that they often end up getting hurt or getting others hurt even in daily activities. Performing demanding technical tasks (like running software updates on a linux distro, only the bash script is corrupted so you've got to understand WTF is happening, pull the required info from the aircraft's systems, slip it into the patch so it will be authorized, then push it manually) in 40lbs of safety equipment on a flight deck with moving ordnance and launching/recovering aircraft is something we need a well rounded person for, not a prima donna.

Basically you are making an outsiders mistake of thinking you understand what's required to make that ship function. If you are interested in learning what's really required there are any number of people in this topic that would likely be happy to tell you. I'm one.

You need to be careful about reading the subreddit rules when you do this though. In my for-locals subreddit tourists asking questions like this were a plague, even when there was a very clear and prominent rule forbidding any kind of tourism content.

Also important to at least try searching at first. So many people thought they had a super original question but it'd really been asked and answered to death already.
"It's either this or one of its competitors rises to take them on at some point and we get a bifurcated society where specific companies cater to specific politics."

Not ideal, but better than the status quo where there is 1 company catering to 1 group.

About the web gallery project, this being Hacker News I would like to give some more details about it: I have implemented a React frontend and FastAPI backend, navigating through the albums and photos already work, but thumbnails won't display because Digikam uses PGF image format [0]. PGF images are great for thumbnails because images load progressivel and can be quickly rendered at different sizes, but they are not supported natively by web browsers. I'm going to try compiling libpgf [1] to WASM so the frontend will be able to display the Digikam thumbnails directly (and allow for on-the-fly thumbnail resizing!), otherwise I will need to handle the conversion in backend.

Once thumbnails work I will deploy it on my home server, dogfood it for a while, polish a few things and release it. Of course Hacker News will get an announcement.

You're totally right, I was trying to do a two part thing and I ruined it by saying, "no place on the Internet".

I should have said, "No place on Twitter." On the Internet? Yeah, totally in agreement.

On Twitter? Couldn't disagree more, and my one-two punch of a point was going to be that 1) it's up to Twitter to decide that, and 2) they've landed at about as free as American society will tolerate.

1) because Twitter has rights too. If we actually respect freedom of speech, we also have to respect Twitter's right to decide who to associate with and,

2) Twitter is completely tolerant to many things we'd probably consider offensive. My example probably isn't even enough to get banned on Twitter for, even though I think Twitter would be wise to avoid associating with people who get that mean in their trolling.

I think the only way to support free speech is to support Twitter's right to decide who it allows on its platform. I don't think they should let Trump on their platform, for example, but that's up to them, and they can change their minds. And now, apparently, (at least partially) up to Elon!
The whole premise of #metoo was that if victims had individually attempted to directly confront their abuser they'd have faced serious and potentially career ending retaliation. I have a hard time labeling someone cowardly for preferring an option that didn't have that consequence!

Far from it.
The issue in open source is with projects with not a strong leader ship , then you get some wanna be designer copying Apple because they read some book and now he thinks that shit needs to look and feel different. Then you have developers that want to work on new cool stuff and not maintain existing code, so every few years you get a full reset but because of inexperience or incompetence the new version is buggy for a few years, it gets fixed but then the developers are bored and want to rewrite it using some new ideas/tech.

What would work IMO is someone with money paying the developers and the designer but force them do do customer support, you don't play with the new shit until most tickets are resolved and customers waiting for response are satisfied. maybe a paid support would help too.
Well, are you liberal?
Hi Ennea,
Can you help me understand why you make this particular change in the config?
Roughly, the same way.

Not enough gas? Raise the price, the gas will appear. Some plants will choose to absorb the cost - or transfer it to customers, some will choose to change what and how they do. That's how regular market economy works - independent players adjust to changing circumstances.

Where the gas will appear from? First, from those who chose not to buy the more expensive gas. Second, from new sources, which became profitable with raising prices. The changes are small, not drastic, there are obvious possibilities for adjustments.

Too cold for people in their homes? Gas will be taken from plants. Too costly for already stretched economically? Reasonable governments should adjust programs to help needy to include this particular need.

I don't see any domino effect for a relatively small change projected. Gas as a product has substitutes, there are many suppliers in the connected world, so even getting a major supplier offline doesn't invalidate the whole economical picture.
I second this. Foods affect your depression levels. Foods high in Omega 3 fight depression. Eat those foods regularly, you should notice the change in your mood.
> But that day is guaranteed to never come, because the Amiga project is disbanded. So should we keep that until the heat death of the universe?

Surely there are more options "keep that until the heat death of the universe" and "remove that the moment its platform is out of production". A more practical metric for free/open software, I think, would be "is there still someone maintaining this software on this platform": every major release (e.g., 5.x -> 6.0) could be a time to do a sanity check, documenting ports that don't have an active maintainer as "deprecated". At the next major release, if nobody's stepped up to maintain it, then it gets removed. (One could argue even that's too draconian, because there may be people still using the port even if it's not maintained.)

There shouldn’t even be the option to opt-in to something so privacy violating.

Having built-in sending of session content means dangerous data exfiltration is always just one bug or accidental click away.

But TFA never confirmed that it was a cult. Suspicious circumstances, yes, but people who meet to discuss things privately doesn't mean cult. It could just mean they get very deep into certain topics and want to pre-screen people.

Seems pretty much impossible to not have an accessibility mode yet have features such as fixed columns/rows. It would be very difficult to have a clean DOM structure while supporting that layout. If it is possible I'd be very interested in how that is done.

I really wish there was libre software with the layout features of Scribus, but oriented to producing digital-native content formats (primarily PDF, maybe HTML). Scribus can output PDF but last time I looked into this, the PDF was viewed as something of a transport format on the way to the printer, with less interest in the PDF itself (no support for accessibility features, for example).

The nearest equivalent I can see is LibreOffice.

Can't emphasize this more: Plex was awesome compared to the alternatives years ago. XBMC (Kodi now) was my goto, but all media was played locally, Plex not only transcoded and streamed, it has native clients even for smart TVs.

I'm still annoyed that by default it requires a login to their cloud to stream locally, which I found when my Internet failed and Plex refused to stream locally. Also the useless third-party stream channels, and the insistence on enabling DRM on Firefox when none of my media needs it to play.

I've installed Jellyfin in parallel, and I agree it lacks polishing compared to Plex, but it gets the job done without getting in your way.

Well said. I’ve been thinking about this idea for a very long time. Like another user said above, the negativity bias has a large role to play here. I live in a small town and talking with strangers is considered normal and healthy.

It has to be setup for local network streaming (and requires a network connection to do so the first time). Plex is far from perfect but its pretty much the best local media service I've found, so I'm not too mad at some of its idiosyncrasies.

I didn't mean legally, I meant what the US population (western population generally), as an aggregate market segment, will tolerate. Twitter, as a company, should be allowed to pursue whatever market they believe will best provide value to their shareholders, and if that market includes "Americans with typical sensibilities" then I doubt they'd be able to pursue that market while allowing hate speech and harassment on their platform.

I think it's only fair we defend Twitter's right to freely associate as a form of free speech just as vigorously as we defend the right of people to be able to say whatever they like (with some exceptions around protected groups).

Civil disobedience is one thing - breaking the rules in order to drive change. "Breaking the rules because I'm big and powerful so I can probably get away with it" does not deserve the nobility associated with the former.

And the rules against romantic relationships with subordinates are there to protect the less powerful against exploitation by the more powerful. That's a really bad area for you to be extolling the virtues of breaking the rules. That's not how progress happens.

> Was this a banking or credit website where some consumer protections might apply

Let's assume not.

> or do you have any contractual limitations on cost that may protect you?

I guess in this hypothetical case the person whose laptop was stolen cancels the credit card before the charge is made.

> But generally you will be liable for the costs incurred from items stolen from your custody.

Right... but who was the victim of theft here? The service provider or the client of the service provider?

> You must then recover those costs from whoever stolen from you

So... can the service provider sue you to pay for unauthorized use of your account? Or would that get thrown out and then they would have to go sue the person who actually stole the service?

I think it's clear to me that once the service provide gets cash from the person whose laptop was stolen, it's the problem of the person whose laptop was stolen. But if not, is the problem of the service provider?

> I would easily pay $20-50 for a souped-up terminal (I spend all day in it), even a closed-source one, but the "we raised tons of money to build a free terminal and haven't figured out how to monetize it yet", again, understandable, but not the best look, given the mandatory data collection. Hey, dev's gotta eat, but I'd rather pay for OSS and transparency, rather than free-but-you-are-the-product, and I hope they go for the former route.

The terminal is totally free for individuals. Our business model is to make the terminal so useful for individuals that their companies will want to pay for the team features.

The general philosophy is that we would never charge for anything a terminal currently does. So no paywalls around SSH or anything like that. The types of features we could eventually charge for are things that have a cost to us, for example enabling real-time terminal collaboration. Even those will likely be free up to some level of usage and only charged in a company context.

We will never sell your data.

So first off I'm familiar with schenkerian analysis but I am not an expert on schenker the person, though I did at one point read some of his writings in translation to verify Ewell's claims. Nor am I trying to argue, right now, that his works are inherently racist. If you're looking for those things you should just read Ewell, who is a Schenker expert, and is making that argument.

> Was Schenker promoting a race that he didn't even belong to?

I think this is an error, trying to map our understanding of race onto the past like this. I don't know what race Schenker thought of himself as. He was Jewish, and he consistently asserted the natural superiority of german people and culture. That doesn't cleanly reconcile with any conception of race that I've come across, which indicates to me that those conceptions are not a useful lens here.

My goal wasn't to start up the is-schenkerian-analysis-racist-or-not quagmire here. It was to point out that I believe the author of this essay has misunderstood or misrepresented a more nuanced conflict for their own purposes.

In any situation where an individual has direct power over another can you really claim any form of relationship born from this is consensual? For many people who are not women it can be easy to shrug this aside for their own "personal interests" especially those in academia where most women tend to either leave the workforce or are left outside the pool of candidates for an individual. From an outsiders perspective looking in all I can say is no they cannot.
> a parse error isn't really exceptional

And a parse error should (I will argue) not be what Zig thinks of as an error.

There are languages where try/catch became in effect the poor man's coroutine, and it's doubly confusing with parser "errors" because this is not something we need to handle as equivalent to an actual error in our program. A parser error is normal control flow.

I would suggest that in Zig one might use suspend/resume to pass a parser error to something which prints an error, possibly returning with a 'fix' which lets parsing continue and maybe find more errors. https://ziglearn.org/chapter-5/
My thinking is that a peacetime military is basically a skeleton that needs to be able to be rapidly fleshed out when it becomes necessary. That's not exactly a novel thought, but I think there's a lot of room to explore when you stop thinking about fighting wars, and start thinking about how to build the machine that builds an army (preferably within weeks) if a war breaks out.

European countries can be quite good at this: the whole logic of Finland's conscription system is to have it so that if a war breaks out, you can mobilize the whole nation within a short time, and everybody knows where they fit in.

In previous big wars, nations have typically just slashed their standards when the war broke out to meet manpower quotas. It would be better, generally speaking, to build an institution that can, in an emergency, use everyone. That would mean, in peacetime, working out if there are profitable places to put people to use, so when you get a deluge of asthmatic flat-footed civilians signing up because a big war has broken out, you don't waste time trying to make them into infantry.

Obviously, my view is informed by being a peacenik. If you want an army to do offensive, expeditionary operations on a budget, there's much less to change. Having a big and capable HR department would be important if you were going to get all the dysfunctional people in a country to fight in an actual war, but it would be better, in a small professional force, to just not induct anybody who doesn't meet a bunch of stringent standards.
