> Thunderbolt 3 allows the connection of two 4K monitors, one 5K, or one 4K at 120 Hz per port. Thunderbolt 4 supports the same number of displays as Thunderbolt 3, while adding support for resolutions up to 8K.

So bandwithwise you probably need at least thunderbolt 4 (8k=4* 4k) and then not at 120Hz. Also even if the docking station can manage this, it is not clear whether your graphics card is able to, e.g. see

https://www.intel.com/content/www/us/en/support/articles/000...

What might be possible is one docking station with two 4k@60Hz screens (many options) and then connecting a third screen to the laptop's HDMI port (if it has one).
The last thread here said it was a passive investment or something to that effect. Does this mean that has changed? I presume a board of directors does things rather than remain passive observers.
This is actually a good point, and it's important to realize that even Karl Popper acknowledged this. He explicitly argues that some limited tolerance should be extended even to the intolerant to the extent practical, since this helps promote the norm of tolerance in the first place even when intolerant ideas might otherwise appear to be prevalent. The Paradox of Tolerance is more about acknowledging that limits to tolerance must exist somewhere than an actual argument for narrowing those limits.
For instance -- Keno -- It's pay-per-view on a very boring TV show. Numbers bouncing around. Very boring.

You pay a dollar or two for 45 seconds of entertainment where you're much more invested in the outcome than, say, if John Snow will in fact learn something this time. The fact that you're unlikely to actually turn a profit on the exercise isn't actually the point. You're also unlikely to turn a profit on the time and money invested in watching Picard discuss ethics.
There's no way the median vehicle purchase is $47k.

I'd buy that the mean new car price is $47k, but that's not the right average if you are trying to estimate typical vehicle acquisition costs.
Java (well Maven) I believe does this the most clever and simple way. It does have a global folder of dependencies but will gladly stash multiple versions of the same library. Local projects just link to the right version. That saves downloads and allows for simple version pinning. And JVMs are backwards compatible so having a new JVM can still run bytecode for past versions with just a flag. Features like this are so much more valuable than anything that goes into the actual language syntax.

Unfortunately this has effectively happened in the past. Artwork destroyed, not by the thief itself but by the mothers. By Artwork i mean Brueghel the Younger, Matisse, Monet, Picasso & Watteau. It was the case with Stéphane Breitweiser and Radu Dogaru mothers. The thieves were still caught but a part of history is definitely lost...

It’s a radically different scenario. Imagine a square that had one corner in St Pauls and the diagonally opposite corner in Blackfriars in London. Now imagine that surrounded with a parkland belt about the width of the thames at Blackfriars.

It’s not a perfect square belt, in the north it’s quite a bit thicker but there’s the Zoo and University campus etc.

It’s really pleasant and the most expensive real estate lies outside the borders of the parklands.

At a government level, you can not banish politics without infringing on speech. Your proposal directly conflicts with the first amendment.

If Disinformation was simply promoting outdated chauvinism, it wouldn't be perceived as such a threat to society. But that's not what's happening. Disinformation campaigns are convincing people that the election was rigged and the current government is illegitimate.

Even your "present all sides" idea has flaws because it's a tactic used in propaganda. You ostensibly take two "experts" and hold a mock debate. One of those experts is going to take a dive, looking like a fool, and as a result, your chosen side appears to prevail.
I did the same thing, seeking a "one plug" setup with my Macbook Pro. I have a different CalDigit (the TS3+), but same conclusion: to do this right, you have to throw a little money at it.

With this dock, I was able to run:

- Gigabit Ethernet
- USB-A
- Audio connection for speakers
- Power

all on one USB-C cable to the laptop. It also has an SD slot and a front-facing USB-A port for thumb drives, etc.

> Some things are only finished when they are finished.

That's how you end with never ending and dying projects. Projects which are dragging for years and decades because the creator just does not "feel it" and at the end abandon them and never releases them. Thinking about the end goal is especially in creative work highly relevant. And a deadline is a good tool for this, as it forces you to think about. And a deadline can be changed, if done with good reasoning.

> GTD recommends to set as few deadlines and calendar dates as possible

GTD also makes a great point about reviewing and analyzing. And a deadline is a tool to force one to review and analyze a project, it's state and goals.
The theory is that if the two countries depend on each other deeply they will avoid disputes that would disrupt that relationship. That hasn’t worked out so well in this case, but has worked well IMHO to break the cycle of warfare in Western Europe over the last 70 years or so, the longest stretch of peace in in that region for over a thousand years or longer. Under a rational actor/game theoretic model that is the most likely outcome.

Russia decided to use the gas as a weapon and germany decided to use its financial structure (I.e. its ties to many other countries) as a weapon back. In the medium and long term I think Russia needs germany more than the other way around.

More broadly: your business is in trouble if it only has a small number of customers or suppliers. That diversity provides resilience. In geopolitical terms, it’s it’s fine to have only overseas suppliers (and even good from a comparative advantage perspective) as long as they aren’t correlated. Germany’s bet (wrong) was that making an oversized commitment on Russia would provide a welcome guarantee to reduce the chance of isolationism, That didn’t work. But Russia made the opposite bet: that the commitment meant they had a stranglehold on Germany. But Germany is too rich and has too many friends for that to be any more than a transient threat.
"So stripe here would charge an EU card from its EU entity, US from the US, GB from GB etc etc, regardless of where the merchant is actually located. Maybe there is something fundamentally different with the workings of Visa / MC payments and clearing though that means this is not possible?"

Not really. The transaction happens on the country the merchant Operates.

If you are a merchant within the EU and stripe accepts a txn on your behalf, if that txn is from a card issued by a UK institution you will be charged the extra fee.
No. I just find it extremely annoying when I need to find the charger at the worst possible moment. I've never taken a break due to low power.

> Russian gas accounted for 55% of Germany's gas imports in 2021 and 40% of its gas imports in the first quarter of 2022, Reuters reported. The country has pledged to end the use of Russian gas by 2024, the Habeck said in a March 25 press release.

Some in this thread have asked how Germany could be so foolish to tie its economic destiny to such a problematic country as Russia.

The answer seems to be "one step at a time." And Germany is not unique.

Take the United States, for example, and its near total dependency on Chinese manufacturing for, well, just about everything. The US offshored manufacturing capacity hand-over-fist. In exchange the US got cheap goods (and low inflation), and continued supremacy of the dollar in world trade and as a reserve asset.

Both of those benefits are looking shakier by the week. Inflation is ripping higher, and the sanctions on Russia have prompted what some observers are calling Bretton Woods III, or a brand new economic order that minimizes the position of the US dollar.

But the worst part of all is the enormous leverage China has over the US. The US can protest human rights violations or even an attack on Taiwan, but any serious action taken against China will visit upon the US the same fate as Germany now faces. The brave threats can not be made good on because of an economic hole dug over the course of a generation or two.

The irony is that if you wind the clock back 25 years or so, this situation is the same in direction (although possibly not in magnitude) as policy makers wanted. Free trade was supposed to make conflicts more difficult because of mutual dependency. And it has worked. Just look at the disconnect between the saber-rattling German/US rhetoric and the tepid German/US actions.
Goodbye Apple, Hello Purism
After 10 years as a loyal customer of everything Apple, it's time for me to say my goodbyes the the fruity yet snoopy mega-corp.

Money wasn't enough for dear Apple, it seems, and their new direction of listening in on their user's private digital activity has left an overtly sour taste in my mouth.

I don't want to be surveilled for conformance by the computer that I paid a bucket-load of money for. I don't want the keystrokes I type in private (i.e. not posts to Facebook) to determine my Social Credit Score.

So, it's time to say Sayonara Apple, and welcome in the Purism Librem Mini to my service. Many years may you reign, and I truly hope you have as few bugs as your predecessor (my Mac mini never faltered, only slowed down as Apple's planned / programmed obsolescence kicked in).

And Tim, if you're reading this, please stop what you're doing. You're taking our beloved company, and the world, in the wrong direction.
> Can you elaborate a little about what you thought the public wanted,
and what you found they actually want?

Sure I'll give it a shot, its over a decade ago now and I'm getting
old at this. It was circa 2010 IIRC, and we had a a bunch of
trailblazers, one Last.fm founder, a Second Life veteran, a top girl
from Eve Online, me (procedural audio), and a vision for the delivery
of "interactive" pop music - at the point of delivery, using loads of
synthesis, but crucially using all the sensors to shape the music. So
each "Reactive music" (coined by Michael Breidenbruecker) piece
basically used the gyro, temperature, time of day, microphone, light
levels and all that jazz... to create parameters for the music. We
pioneered all kinds of stuff, like music that adapts to your running
speed, driving, location (through GPS or other context awareness),
sounds in the environment etcetera. I put a lot into the DSP and
philosophy of "deferred form" as an artistic concept.

What we thought people wanted was basically "co-creation". We moved
legal mountains over licensing stems, derivative works, sharing of UGC
by audiences... and working with artists/producers to "capture" their
workflow, reduce it to a rule set and stuff it into a smartphone
(which they really didn't like for the same good reasons Aboriginal
Aussies have around photography).

<Skip really complex psychological and philosophical stuff about
identity, identification, art, attribution and social participation>

What people _actually_ want is "definitive form" (deferred form only
works in dietetic contexts like video games =- thus procedural audio
is a thing, whereas reactive music is not - although Kent Jolly and
the Spore guys almost proved that wrong, and games still seems the
natural home of algorithmic music).

Put it this way... everyone likes the idea of a "write your own
story" game - games have infinite outcomes depending on what the user
(player) does. Deferred form works there. But you can't make that work
with film. I don't want a Star Wars where each time I watch it I get
surprised: maybe Darth Vader and Luke _do_ rule galaxy as father and
son, or Luke does a paternity test and it turns out "You're NOT my
father!".

I want a Star Wars where everything in the universe is as I remember
and like it, so I can watch it over and get satisfaction. I want my
psychological "noo-noo" to play with. That's how people listen to
music, and ultimately it's what they want - even if they say they
want interactive smartphone music. This is why market research is a
waste of money unless you grok the culture. You can ask them. You can
build it. And they still don't come.

I've bought gas from various "green" energy suppliers over the years. Generally, they need to offer it for people that need both, even if their main aim is expanding solar or wind power.

Some, like this example, go a little further and try to mix in hydrogen or biogas to reduce carbon output, or offset the carbon in some way, but even when they didn't, it was still greener than the alternatives on the market and a profitable business advancing their professed agenda.

I wish nuclear fans would apply their ridiculously high standards for what they consider green energy to nuclear as well rather than just sabotage any attempt at advancing renewable energy with snide gotcha arguments.
Based on the earlier comments, it feels like step 1 is to renegotiate salaries away from stock. It makes sense when you can't afford reasonable salaries, but it's not something that's been written in stone.

Also, don't hire executives who have a demonstrated history of making bad decisions for a business' long term stability in the name of "shareholder value".
There was a time when most papers in Norway were party papers. And it was totally fine! The reason for it being totally fine was because you'd already know where the paper stood on a certain topic, and with whom. And so when you read an article from that sender, with that very clear affiliation, you could ironically also trust them more, because you would be weary of any attempts of manipulation beforehand, and perhaps you'd even know their "tribal language" as it were. And so it would be much easier to decide for yourself whether it was something you'd believe in, or concern yourself with, or react to. Those who were hardcore "tribalists" would of course only read "their" party's papers, but those who wanted a more balanced view, would simply buy papers from the other parties. For that reason most households would hold several papers from different, and often opposing parties in order to stay up to date. So if the USA's web pages are tribalizing, that isn't necessarily a bad thing, because you can always just peek at the competition to get a more even view on things. With that said, it still is a bad thing if our collective "town squares" are monopolized by just one side. That's why I remain positive to Elon Musk's majority buy-up of Twitter stocks, knowing that he's a free speech absolutist. Whether it'll be "good for Twitter" remains to be seen, however I remain hopeful.

This is a slightly pessimistic take on open core :)

I'm personally a big fan, as opposed to libraries that are not maintained and die. Sidekiq's competitor, Resque, has a somewhat uncertain situation (it's been dead for an year or so, then new maintainers took over).

The advantage of open core is that nobody prevents devs to create their own plugins, especially for products that are accessible to developers without highly specific knowledge (say, a relational database); this is actually happening with Sidekiq - for example, there is a plugin for a more granular scheduler.

> Internet services and payment processors should be treated the same as other utilities

I'm of the opinion that depending on the service they should have much more responsibilities than service providers.

For example social networks that algorithmically propose content should be considered editors/publishers and be treated as such, including being responsible for the content they publish.

Even if crazy earl wants to talk about the “good old days” where women stayed home and cooked all day why does a company need to take a stand on eliminating that post?

Um, because those women buy a crap-ton of product. Depending on your business, probably a lot more than men. If they boycott you, (which incidentally happens to be a right guaranteed to them by the 1st restricting the government from decreeing its denial), there goes your bottom line.

I'm always the big, bad, Halliburton capitalist in my social circle, but I'm actually not the jackhole people think I am when they see the suit coming. What happens is that liberals and conservatives have ideas that are detrimental to the efficient function of market capitalism and I point that fact out. Why should a business owner and his employees suffer to ensure the right of some beer gutted unemployed Bubba to offend women who probably worked their posteriors off to be able to afford your product?
