That's the downside and I'm by no means suggesting someone should do this unless they really want to! The comment was more for those who really do want to.

But yes: I do that. I personally think it's very interesting to see where I've been and to visualize the traces, especially when I'm traveling around the world.

When I originally started a few years ago, battery drain from running a GPS logger 24/7 on a phone was significant. This was a good alternative. I'm now used to it and appreciate that I'm fully in control of that data.
Considering we only have 2 political parties in the US, if you oppose the policies of the party in power you only have one other option. I'm a libertarian and don't have a team I root for, but it's a fact that plenty of hyper-wealthy people support the Democrats.
Anyone can be critqued...

1) He exploits his workers with typical tech bro enthusiasm, working them to the bone. I hear terrible things about the work culture at his companies.
2) He claims the throne of innovator but many of his successes came from acquisitions which came from his rich parents who ran an exploitative emerald mine.
3) He manipulates the stock market openly.
4) He rarely keeps his promises.

That being said I think he's alright. But it's not just the fact that he uses his money that people complain about him.
Frankly, it's really frustrating to watch them posture like this when pretty much every use-case that isn't content consumption or light content-creation is out the window.

"The iPad is a computer!"

Okay, what's the development experience like on it?

"Well, for $19.99 you can buy a license for this app that lets you SSH into another box to do your work!"

That's okay, I'm fine sticking with my laptop. How's the software situation?

"It's great! You can only download the stuff Apple lets you get, or you can pay $99 a year for the privilege of loading arbitrary software."

I think that's another win for the PC... at least I can do my web browsing on it, right?

"Of course! Safari is a first-class experience on iPad, which is why it's the exclusive supported browser on iPadOS."

Any platform with this many "gotchas" probably doesn't qualify as a computer any more than a LeapPad or a feature phone does.
Russian TV is wall to wall coverage about their highly successful campaign to eradicate Ukrainian Nazis. An action like this might at least be a small hint to everyday Russians that things aren’t as they appear.
Early user (in the Discord). Been waiting for this one for a while. Excited to see it launch! Congrats, team.
Tesla answered that quite well on their blog https://www.tesla.com/blog/dfehs-misguided-lawsuit

I've not heard Musk being accused of being personally racist - that was more one contractor used racist language in the presence of some other contractor stuff.
Amazing project, only sad note is the monetization side is a bit neglected.

We were ready to pay for Sidekiq, but the pricing model was just off and we just used an OSS lib to patch the missing part.

Mike if you are here, might be worth to invest some time in pricing research, you could probably double your revenue.
I've always interpreted it as "zero days since a fix was released."
You're assuming there was some cost/benefit analysis here. Elon has enough money that only the benefit is a factor.
Sorry, you're right.

Even so, by placing them on the same scale, I think you're suggesting that there's a difference only in degree and that the two are on the same moral plane. But I think the difference is significant enough that they are qualitatively not the same.
The sleeper was a thing once upon a time. Might still be.
I wonder if this will break the hardware acceleration I've enabled to run in Firefox in X11 by using the VAAPI flags/etc
Been following you guys for a bit - loving it!
Horizon Zero Dawn has the best facial expressions I’ve seen yet. First I noticed the lip synching was very good. Then I noticed it also seemed to be doing procedural micro expressions as well as small eye saccades. Paired with subtle and expressive voice acting it’s remarkable.
I legitimately don't get the point with all of this.

At the end of the day it's stored the same way on the client side. For any large service you need to have a database call anyway.

Why is there so much written about effectively the same strategy?
Not if you're able to influence the market in a meaningful way from your Twitter handle. How is anyone underestimating Twitter's power at this point?
Not everyone has an ideology. Having an ideology is a bad thing. It generally means you reduce the complexity of the world into a simple narrative, and this results in you having incorrect beliefs, making bad decisions, and supporting bad causes. The goal should be to abandon all ideology, not change to a different, better one, although better is always an improvement over worse.
Stephenson is referencing the effective slavery that is brick kilns in the subcontinent in particular [1]. It also applies to India and possibly Bangladesh.

It wasn't done to copy Chrome, but you keep telling yourself that.
You can't on iOS. All browsers (including Firefox!) on iOS are wrappers around Safari, which is lagging behind on many HTML5 features
This incorrect idea that there's any trivial way to make a $4 billion purchase is popular because most people don't understand money in those amounts. It's fine if you have a problem with extreme wealth, but if this is how you think of it, you might not be seeing the actual problems.
Highly capable touch-screen sensor-rich portables are carving out their own niche and that's been a great opportunity for shaking up some of the core ideas in system architecture and OS designs. This applies across all vendors for products in that class.

Not only would porting macOS to iPad disturb Apple's business proposition of "why not buy both?" but it would let up on the pressure that makes iPadOS itself evolve and solve problems in its own way.

I'd say just be patient and tablets will become what you want. The road to get there is a bit longer than "just port over the old stuff!" but that long road will probably keep surfacing exciting new innovations and paradigm-changes along the way.
Trying to be both sell a seller of very high end computer products while also doing your own chips and graphics at the same time is quite the lift. And at the same time their market was massively attacked from the low end.

The area where companies could do all that and do it successfully kind of ended in the late 90s. IBM survived but nothing can kill them, I assume they suffered too.

What do you think, going back to your first day, if you were CEO could have been done?

I always thought for Sun OpenSource Solaris, embracing x86, being RedHat and eventually Cloud could have been the winning combination.
It's a good question, one that we are discussing a bunch.

We are planning to first open-source our Rust UI framework, and then parts and potentially all of our client codebase. The server portion of Warp will remain closed-source for now.

You can see how we’re thinking about open source here: https://github.com/warpdotdev/Warp/discussions/400 TLDR;

As a side note, we are open sourcing our extension points as we go. The community has already been contributing new themes [https://github.com/warpdotdev/themes]. And we’ve just opened a repository for the community to contribute common useful commands. [https://github.com/warpdotdev/workflows]
Better to wait 8 hours than to melt my hand. But I also haven't had occassion for a 128 gig usb drive. I usually use them for ferrying small data files to other computers, scanners where usb is less tedious than getting the network drivers to work, and booting operating systems when pxe is too tedious. None of those use cases require copying more than about a gig at once.
You can still browse the source on GitHub though. I don't mind them trying to make more money so much. What I don't like is that we have 3 bugs open, one of them 3 years old, that aren't getting fixed. And paying for a license didn't give us any additional priority.

It's also not very performant. Rendering often forces multiple style/layout recalculations, which is nearly always solvable by having your rendering code better organized. Version 8, when they rewrote cell meta, caused certain cell meta APIs we were calling to take _seconds_ on large tables. Version 9 did not document that the "beforeManualColumnMove" changed the meaning of the indices from "before columns" to "after columns". Undo/redo is implemented incorrectly too, so we had to write that ourselves. These caused real problems that affected our users.

As soon as we get the capacity to switch to something like Datagridxl2 we will.
Been keeping an eye on this for a while now. Will test on Mac soon. Congrats on the launch!

Just a heads up: on Pixel 6 on Firefox, the homepage is not smooth at all and feels sluggish.
I remember reading a paper that showed that slightly depressed people have a more accurate world view. I'm not sure which way the causation went though.
90+ while walking is a reasonable heartrate if it's a high pace. For a stroll, then yes it's a sign of poor health.
At least one applicable VAT rate for each of the 27 EU countries is simple enough to implement yourself. The US has a mess of thousands of jurisdictions with their own taxes, where it's difficult to even tell in which jurisdiction an address falls, so you're pretty much forced to use a service like Avalara.
Great work on launch! I have been using the private beta and it's a true step function improvement over standard terminal

True. I'm more interested in the little yet efficient one as a heat exchanger to cool my beer wort haha
I am more optimist than normal here. Most people take different conclusions from the same data.

But I do expect electrification to increase a lot this decade, and for renewables to take over the electricity generation so completely that other sources will only be able to compete with batteries, not with original renewable electricity.

If you extend our current trends, you will get into more than half of the energy being non-polluting. But most of it being new consumption, instead of replacing older sources.

Most sources on electricity agree to an unsettling level, so they are probably repeating each other. Here's one as good as any:

https://www.iea.org/data-and-statistics/charts/electricity-g...

For vehicle electrification, it's harder to find data, but everything has a huge rate of growth that will probably saturate on this decade:

https://www.iea.org/articles/global-ev-data-explorer

What will change on this decade that people usually don't take into account on their conclusions is that wind to a small extent and PV for a huge extent are already cheaper than most electricity sources, and getting cheaper by the day. The limits on PV price are so low we probably won't even be reach them this decade.

That places a real force on every process that heavily uses energy to take advantage of that cheap PV energy, or get outcompeted. Or in other words, the economic reality that have always got in the ways of renewables are now getting in the way of fossil fuels. So I expect the fossil fuel infrastructure to become obsolete and that new renewable energy that we will get to replace it instead of adding to it.

Notice that this is already happening on that data above. On a linear trend it's not fast enough to replace half of our emissions this decade, but on an exponential trend, it's more than fast enough. Well, the change into renewables has been exponential for decades already, that's how immature technologies work. Given that the limits on PV price are so low, I still don't expect it to change this decade.
Yeah I'm on Big Sur on my work computer, so I bet it's frozen by policy, but I bet it's the same on my personal, for the same reason.
I had the same experience.

Public forums tend to be subject to rules and regulation, enforced by authorities, which Elon Musk does not seem to be very fond of. His ideology in the context of social media is a bit more anarchic and sceptical of the imperiality and morality of said authorities.

No comment on how much of a free speech warrior he is when he's dealing with employees or reporters or cavers that he dislikes.
It was a very good return on a small investment. I mostly missed the post-pandemic boom selling too early, so I guess I made around 20-30x overall.

Doesn't change my opinion of Musk's practices. If he's selling very expensive features that are actually donations into the hopes & dreams tip jar, it should be clearly marked as such.

Um, no I mean the non 5g version. It isnt two generations old; I bought it just when it was released, that was under two years ago. That makes it current generation.
I wonder what Gibson thinks of solarpunk. I think its a very compelling aesthetic, and much more rejecting of societal norms (particularly around consumptive consumerism)
I bought a Tesla in 2019 and chose not to buy FSD because I knew it wasn't implemented yet and won't be for several years. If you thought you were going to get FSD any time soon, you weren't paying attention.
It could be argued that the reason governments are “inefficient systems” (particularly in the US) is in large part due to the same people making ridiculous amounts of money. So while you’re being sarcastic, and probably believe that you too “can make it” don’t be surprised when you don’t, and when the government becomes even less efficient because private interests keep using their wealth to strip it of anything useful to regular people.

There is also The Cinderella Book by Hopcroft and Ullman, Introduction to Automata Theory, Languages, and Computation.
I watch a channel on Youtube called "Just Truckin" and he's been sitting on his hands a lot lately because brokers refuse to pay reasonable rates on freight. So his beautiful truck and trailer are just sitting doing nothing because there isn't a reason to haul a load just to break even. May as well spend time with his family.

I think there are plenty of drivers out there. People are just getting savvy to the games companies are playing with them and refusing to participate for peanuts. If they pay enough and stop cheating and lying to people then they won't have any problems.

If those workers are fine with a substantial fail in their QoL. It’s gonna be most painful for the oligarchs and people in their environment who are used to consuming massive amounts of foreign goods.

Btw even the USSR which was generally much more autarkic couldn’t survive without foreign currency for energy exports. What makes you think modern Russia could? Also it was illegal for workers to leave Russia back then, unlike now (so assuming there are countries willing to accept them they might be more likely to choose that over ‘being redirected to work in the war industry’.

There are known colonialist geopolitical problems with .io domains [1]. The islands are controlled by the British and were depopulated for a US military base. The British control the domain TLD and none of the funds go to the islands (or their former population).

The most recent news is that the country of Mauritius has joined the fight over control of the TLD: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/mar/21/mauritius-chal...

Staying out of that geopolitical landmine seems a good reason to avoid .io domains.

Just some features I'd love to have:

- LDAP integration

- SSO

- Customizable icons per library

- Remote agent transcoding (i.e. install an agent on multiple machines on the network, give them the direct play stream to transcode instead of relying on the server to do it.)

- Dolby Vision support (current state of things is terrible)

- Apps for Android and iOS don't work well with large libraries

- No DVD/Blu-ray support. Not expecting full menus, but even a best guess at finding the main title would be sufficient.

- Automatic collection creation by path
You fail to recognize one important factor. Those that did cancel dont show up to these comment threads anymore.

Me being one of them for I think I'm about to hit the 2 year mark soon on being sans-Netflix.

Any show I like and publicly does well, cancelled on season 3. Shows that have been popping up are utter trash. I was thinking of doing a month when Cowboy Bebop dropped... yea... I'm glad i didnt. I'm waiting for Witcher season 3 to drop, then I'll get it for a month and cancel it.

Their business practices are staying from, "deliver awesome content in an awesome way" to "squeeze blood from a rock".

Back in the day, Marco Polo was their shit tier show and it was awesome. The netflix exclusives that were coming out 2 years ago were trash and I could see the writing on the wall that it wasn't going to get better. What I hear about lately, it's all a fucking joke. They're hitting the theres a quality in quantity mindset and the numbers are showing that it's not working.

Maybe if they placed more focus on good movies and shows instead of the business models LITERALLY EVERYONE RAN AWAY FROM TO GET NETFLIX IN THE FIRST PLACE... they might be complaining that there aren't enough good writers and filmmakers out there because they already bought up everyone. That's a better and much more respectable problem to have instead of being a silicon valley bro who worries about "scale" during every conversation.
> Do you think that's how it works? I have no idea, what's your evidence?

Do I think that people leverage their positions of power in the govt to strike blows when they are offended or threatened? Absolutely.
DNG is supported by most open source RAW developers, e.g. Darktable. I'm assuming you've had some issue more subtle than inability to find a program roughly equivalent to Lightroom that has general support for the format, but you may need to elaborate if you want useful responses.
It's hard to imagine how you could test any alternative, either.

If the string people were putting all their effort into coming up with a testable prediction, we might be better off. But they are mostly trying to show their untestable thing is better than the next one over, instead.
The amount of cynicism around fusion is stupid. It reminds me a lot of the learned helplessness that surrounded the idea of reusable spacecraft.

A little engineering later:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sf4qRY3h_eo

Fusion is a harder problem than that but we have no physical reason to believe it is not possible and the surrounding technology like compact higher temperature superconductors has advanced significantly since the 1960s and 1970s.

I am typing this on a computer with a ~5nm feature size CPU. Hard things can be done. It takes time, focus, and funding.
The error thing to me hints more at how people use errors in the wild than anything specifically about Zig per se. The example that comes to mind is propagating parsing errors from a recursive descent parser. Typically one just wants to unwind the stack with some user friendly string error message indicating what exactly went wrong, but philosophically speaking, a parse error isn't really exceptional, it's an expected code path for invalid input.

The way zig seems to think about errors is that early returns via `try` shouldn't be leveraged as a control flow mechanism to bail and bubble up values across the call stack. I think rather than saying why the error handling is done the way it is, it'd be more valuable if there were documentation on how one is supposed to go about coding to be able to use this bail-to-bubble-up-values pattern. Currently, the workaround is indeed somewhat verbose as it requires mimicking the `try` mechanism (and/or using some sort of global error store or whatever).
Yeah you are absolutely right. I'll correct.

His gripe is that Twitter is not a neutral platform and has a lot of ideological issues that have massive impact on society. What you're saying just goes full circle into that point.
Dolby digital could be used without replacing much existing equipment: the sound head looked like it bolted right onto the 1940s-vintage projector in the one installation I've seen. would look like it belonged if the projector wasn't gray wrinkle paint and the sound head smooth black finish. yes, several parts have been updated, including the light source and a platter system, but again it looks like none of this involved doing any violence to the actual projector.
I'm pretty neutral on Musk but he has an established track record of saying stupid shit on Twitter and ruining others' days/lives. Market manipulation, libel, trolling, etc. I guess I don't trust that a man with that kind of track record would be a positive influence on the social media hellscape we already have.

This is acknowledging that he also shares awesome stuff, like technical SpaceX details, and that he often engages with people in a real cool way.
