Yes I clicked but didn't notice the Greek overlay. It's neat. I imagine that it can be useful for math, if you're not using something like LaTeX or Emacs already. I even have something similar in my custom layout, although it seldom gets any use. That does not make it any better for programming, nor for typing in Portuguese (or even Greek).

Look, I think it's great that this thing exists and grateful that you mentioned it. I may even suggest it to some of the French-speaking juniors I work with.

It does not, however, address the issues of the person you were replying to. And I know because I'm in a similar position to them.
If your threat model is this extreme you likely should be airgapped and not downloading OTA updates.
Qt 4.7 (in 2010) is older than electron (2013), how could it be a panicked decision ?

Also, there's nothing wrong with using Qt Quick from C++, or using QML without Qt Quick at all. what matters is your project, not what whatever best practices say.
1500 bytes is a pretty big average payload size when you consider information theory and what actually must be communicated for this kind of business (on average).

A user clicking "Watch later" on a video could theoretically be communicated in something as small as 64-bit integer for the user/session id, one for the command type, and another for the identity of the actual video. With serialization, padding, etc., you are still probably well under 50 bytes for this one event.

Being sloppy with data throughout is certainly a good reason to need more pipes and servers. With enough discipline, you can process events at rates far exceeding 1 million per second with a single box and non-exotic network stack.
I don’t want to touch the root of my server. I rather add a new container that doesn’t modify anything on the root.

Benefits: can cleanly and delete 100% of what was installed. If you use something on root can always infect, save cache, logs…

I don’t want to impact anything else running on my server. I don’t want anything to depend on that either silently.

Docker is the best thing. I just can’t understand how people still can’t get the benefits yet.

Is Amazing to start a project you had 3 years ago and just works and you can deploy without reading any docs. Just spin a docker container. Eat, safe and just works.
They aren't telling you what's true. They're just ranking search results.

And a search engine has to rank search results -- not everything can be at the top. The question isn't whether DDG should rank search results, but what criteria they should use.

I personally think the usefulness and credibility of the information are pretty good criteria, and do not think any exceptions should be made for political subjects.

CPI was measured differently back then and I read calculating the old way it surpasses 1981
Just in case anyone is confused by the 'paying no taxes' bit.

Indeed Raspberry PI Ltd (formerly Raspberry PI Trading Ltd) paid no tax on its profits in 2020 (the most recent filing year) but not because its a charity - which it isn't - rather because they got tax deductions for R&D. I strongly suspect that these deductions would be available to any other firm that spent the same amount on R&D.

And of course they did pay a significant amount of VAT (sales taxes) on these boards.

In short the tax insinuation bit of this is very likely completely unjustified.

Edit: I've read the rest of the post this comment quotes from (on the IPFire Forum) - it goes on to accuse RPi of tax evasion (i.e illegality) - seemingly because they are annoyed that they don't make it easy to run their software on it. This is not an 'interesting perspective'.

Yes, and it is done with resources in place, not in San Francisco.

And, for resources in place, whether so impractical as lithium batteries, or as practical as pumped hydro, iron-air batteries, banked hydrogen, or transmission lines reaching operating generation elsewhere, the space required is in no way prohibitive.

Which was the point.
Whoops. I missed that you mentioned higher PPD is available. If your workflow was improved to accommodate it, I presume it would produce more, for lack of a better phrase, life-like terrain? Would a much higher PPD be required to reach a threshold to improve the experience. And are there plans coming to get finer detail than 512PPD?

You sound like you care very much. I've known many zealots who want everyone to adopt their orthodoxy.

> I care when they have a megaphone and they're convincing other people of their reality and that leads those people to their own early death.

Every preacher, pope, cult leader and zealot of all kinds says the same thing. They want "heresy" silenced in order to save souls. How noble and virtuous. Ever consider that people have their own agency? Ever consider whether you are in the wrong?

What happens if someone says the earth is flat on a megaphone? They get laughed at. As long as you have the facts and data, what are you so afraid of?

> So the parsing support is there. And it is used, e.g. tar

Yes, the parsing support is there, so software written in the GNU style does build and run correctly on BSD systems. But although you bring up tar (a command that is well known for its unusual and unconventional flag handling), it is generally the case that commands on BSD operating systems do not use long options.

Representative examples of prominent 21st century BSD software that do not use long options:

mandoc: https://mandoc.bsd.lv/man/mandoc.1.html

jail: https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?jail(8)

zfs: https://www.freebsd.org/cgi/man.cgi?zfs(8)

acme-client: https://man.openbsd.org/acme-client.1

signify: https://man.openbsd.org/signify.1

doas: https://man.openbsd.org/doas.1

smtpd: https://man.openbsd.org/smtpd.8

And of course old classics like ssh: https://man.openbsd.org/ssh.1

kazinator’s point, that there is no POSIX convention of using -h for help, is correct. That convention came from GNU, and while the idea has spread due to GNU’s influence, there are other prominent schools of thought in the POSIX or Unix‐like ecosystem. I would certainly not agree that long options are the common case on BSD systems.

FYI trans children are not new and minors have been transitioning in the US for the last 50 years. It's only more recently that it has been turned into a vile political issue by the right.

As a transgender person who was once a child but was not aware of the possibility of transitioning back then, I would have loved the opportunity to do so.
Then Amazon the retail company also won’t have access to the profits. Growing a retail business can be capital intensive. I’m not sure it makes sense to load up the retail portion of the business with debt just to avoid paying the workers.
I'm sorry, but exactly which "medium-sized European city" has more expensive housing than SF?

I'll be moving back to Europe this year, and I find your comment quite funny, given that I am moving to a city with significantly cheaper housing and better weather than where I live now (NYC).
IMO this compresion is equivalent to sophisticated scientific (mathe-physical) understanding and theories (which really are stories)

> The Federal Reserve, which is almost completely independent from the federal government, is the biggest player in regards to controlling inflation.

The Federal Reserve Board of Governors, an executive agency of the federal government that is “independent” within government in the same sense as, say, the FCC, and not at all independent from the government, is actually the relevant actor in inflation-control policy.

Really depends on your scale. At the Terabyte to 100s of TB level, you can solve most storage problems at minimum cost with NAS or ZFS on commodity hardware.

Ceph/Object storage comes into its own at the multi-petabyte and higher levels, which is not very many groups or institutions.
Huh? Inflation has been ramping up FAR in advance of the Ukraine invasion. Producer costs were already spiraling so badly that Powell had to concede that the entire FRB was bullshitting us about inflation being "transitory" in the middle of last year.

Hayekian acolytes and hard money advocates have been warning about this on this very site for YEARS, only to be downvoted and shouted down by the dominant Keynesian Central Bank Worshipper HN zeitgeist.

No, these consequences have been in the making since Helicopter Ben launched QE. The supply chain shocks introduced by COVID definitely accelerated things, but the outcome was always inevitable.

Furthermore, the March print only included a small portion of the Ukraine-related inflation, specifically in fuel prices only. It's going to take several quarters for these high energy costs to filter into the rest of the CPI. So if you think this March print is bad, just wait.
I have tried to avoid shopping from Amazon for many years. It just feels bad to support ultra-capitalists that show no respect for their employees. Last year I spent less than 50 EUR, this year still zero. Living in a small country it's sometimes hard to avoid them completely because many businesses don't ship here or at least not for a reasonable rate.

Urban renewal wasn't necessarily the wrong solution in itself.

The 18th and 19th centuries weren't necessarily any better at humane building. In the UK postwar worker housing stock was terrible - outside toilets, little or no insulation, no central heating, and often poorly built.

So blocks were a solution of sorts. But they usually were poorly built and unimaginatively designed, optimised for low cost, but with no practical understanding of community or community spaces.

A typical UK block has some decorative grass around it, but that's it. There's no common space, no common facilities, and no colour or texture.

Later renovations which add at least some of the above are more popular and have fewer social problems.

...that actually supports my point though?

Facts don't care about feelings, but this doesn't support your point at all.
I just did the math on my EV history (~3.5mi/kWh) and compared to the EPA emissions for my region, Texas. That came out to ~0.122kg/mi of CO2 emissions. If I'm reading this other EIA chart, there's 8.1kg of CO2 per gallon of finished motor gasoline. So for a 30mpg car, that's .27kg/mi of CO2 emissions. So I would need to get on average at least 66mpg to match the CO2 emissions from my EV in Texas.

How many crossovers do you see on the market get >66mpg?

Also, this is entirely ignoring the transmission factors, this is purely a gallon of gas on its own being burned compared to the production at the plant. In reality you'd need to add a significant amount more emissions to the gas as there's tons of trucks having to drive that fuel to local fuel stations all over the place, meanwhile transmission of the electrical energy is pretty darn efficient in comparison.

Yeah pretty much. Especially in the US we've oriented mostly in minimizing economic damage. Which is valid I guess, but we also need to acknowledge that other optimizations are possible. Different choices don't need to be based on different information available, just different values and desired/acceptable outcomes.
Common accessibility issues that you can fix today
I'd call it "the best way to improve your Hearthstone ranking".
One of the interview questions I ask all UX Researchers is to open up rottentomatoes, sort recent films by rating and then look at the movies that have the lowest critic scores. Almost always you can see the audience score for those movies is much higher than the critic scores. I then ask why this is the case.

The overwhelming majority of answers involve critics being out of touch with the audience, critics being perhaps snobby, or watching movies in an elitist fashion whereas the audience just wants to sit back and relax, not think too much, just be entertained.

A very small minority of UX Researchers come to the correct conclusion, which is that most professional critics have to review every single movie, whereas the audience typically only goes to see movies that they are likely to enjoy, so that one should not be surprised that the audience score will often be significantly higher than the critic score.

Those researchers are typically the ones I hire.

> I was thinking about the case where there is a `?` in the code but the reader glossed over it, thinking it didn't return an error.

The error is explicitly in the function prototype. Every code path that returns must ensure the result is an `Ok(T)` or an `Err(E)`. You just can't accidentally overlook this. Even if you do gloss over it when skimming, the error is handled and dealt with.

> You seem to be unduly defensive. This was never my claim. I have used and enjoy Rust. We're all friends here :)

I'm just tired of hearing that Golang's error syntax is explicit but Rust's is somehow implicit because it's fewer characters, even if they desugar to virtually exactly the same thing. Both are explicit. Golang's is verbose and (ironically) error-prone.

Designing architecture in such way it can be easily changed when down the line inevitebly the usage changes is a value in itself. A big chunk of architecture IMO suffers from architects thinking they know how living or working is supposed to look like and push that ideology onto others while most often the offices of that architect look suspiciously different..

I work in a building from an era that preceeds Modernism and adapting the building to anything other than was originally 250 years ago envisioned is a nightmare of limitations, reshuffles and regulations, a stairway that goes down into an hallway just to go up on the other side. Accessability nightmare etc.
Yep, idling to win out chatroom ownership when AOL reset the server. Using Tameclone to flood out clients and Uccom (or bizkit047's version of it) to take over and moderate. It was my first real move into programming and running a server in my basement.

I still have all of my source code. My only claim to fame was I wrote a program to automate the generation of ICQ accounts (which could login to AIM for botting, and were harder to ban since you couldn't setup a wildcard match for the screen names being all "random" numbers.) Apparently it was good enough that someone felt it was worth cracking my crappy copy protection.
You do realize inflation is currently a global issue, and not something completely isolated and controllable by the United States, right?

I'd argue bad faith communication now has mechanisms that enable audiences to call it out and criticize it, it was always normalized.
Is the government responsible for inflation? Honest question. They don't set prices for goods. They have been printing money, but that's been going on for 2-3 years now.
> The only real advantage cloud has for science is object storage, which is genuinely a much better idea than trying to manage your own long-term archival storage.

I work with an academic HPC group, and because researchers generally pay only for the hardware, and maybe some recharge rate for occasional maintenance, the cost per TB per month for 100's of TB and larger systems works out to the same for Glacier Deep (about $1/TB/mo) - except there is no 180 day requirement, no egress fees, and no transfer fees. And disk just keeps getting cheaper.

I'm told that big part of the solution is their use of ZFS.
Me, I didn’t really give a shit then nor would I give a shit now. My job was to lay out the risks/rewards to clients. Sometimes, they choose the dumb thing. You can tell them that’s it unwise, but ultimately it’s their wallets. If they don’t want to pay an extra 20k a month just for redundancy, I totally get it.

They lost about 50k in sales that day, still less than the cost-of-ownership for redundancy.

PS. Please keep conversations civil. You probably don’t know me, but I’m the least “scared of failure” person you’ll ever meet.
> Whats the current consensus on Brave?

If you want to use Chromium based browsers it's probably the only browser that is:

- Cares about security, (not doing stupid shit like disabling CRLSets), they are proxied by Brave. See https://qua3k.github.io/ungoogled/

- Does try to do some anti-fingerprinting, while its not a strong as Firefox+Arkenfox, it's at least a step in the direction as opposed to other browsers which don't even attempt to do anything about it

- Its a resourced fork with timely security updates, don't use small browsers which lag behind.

- Their shields thing aren't bad, they have a script blocker (a bit like noscript) too you can enable, that isn't an addon.

Interesting article that shows via data that yes, critics are losing sync with audiences. Not that they were ever in sync? Although the data suggests that actually they are not that far off.

For me, I've always attributed a big difference of critics vs the general population is that critics have seen 10x the movies and so movies an audience finds interesting are often "been there, done that, and better" to a critic.

Other things I see which I'm not sure the cause and effect are movies that seem (to me) to be highly rated by critics for their message, direct or indirect, and not for whether they are actually good movies. An example to me (I know it's mistake to list one but I'm going to do it anyway), is Moonlight (2016). I'm not saying it's a bad movie but movie of the year? I saw it and other than remembering that it's about gay black men I remember absolutely nothing about the movie. It had zero impact for me. My feeling is it was chosen for its messages. That black men can be gay too. That black actors should be given more diversity in roles. That there should be more diverse movies with black leads. All of which I agree with. But the movie itself, while definitely a well made movie, had zero impact on me as a movie. I don't remember it. Conversely say, Women in the Dunes (1964), that movie will stick with me for the rest of my life.

Another random personal observation is it seems like "they" (the creators), have, at least for documentaries, figured out the formula for always making them crowd pleasers. They're the highest rated category both by my own experience looking up movies, and by the article. For me though, I've pretty much decided not to watch documentaries anymore because I see the formula and because I see they are super manipulative. Following the formula they can make you believe almost any conclusion about their topic.

It's compelling to me that the Earth and its moon are so tightly linked that their relationship is projected to outlast a life-providing sun. I believe this is moreso than any other moon-planet pairing in the solar system? Given what we know of incoming asteroids and comets, the probability of their impacts hitting with enough force at a trajectory you describe with enough significance to change the moon's orbit is expected to be low . And we're relatively confident of that?
