Check out stumpwm. It is an amazing window manager for non mouse usage. It is based of ratposion, a window manager which was designed to minimize mouse usage
This is one of my favourite class of vulnerabilities.

Many applications and saas products that deal with images are susceptible to this vector because often image handling isn't a core business just a means to an end, so isn't always given the priority or deference it deserves.

The SVG format by spec is a swiss army knife that contains all kinds of opportunities for leveraging poor handling of the data it can contain.
And Hacienda is one of the most widely used interfaces. Wait till you have to use some obscure system.

Luckily some other level of government made another interface for the same system cos they got tired of it.
As a lobg time on and off Mac user: nnt very well. The Windows/Xfce method of switching between all Windows within the current workspace fits the modern way if working much better.

Yes, Mac also supports switching between Windows in the same application but that is rarely what I want either since I am a heavy user of virtual desktops
It sounds like you have created a distance between yourself and people who make less money. You think your being smarter makes you different. You experience discomfort when dealing with "them" as if they are not people just like yourself, and talk about "different social classes" as if that is anything more than a social construct.

Honestly, step one is to stop segregating people in your mind, and just look at them as people just like yourself. Then you could actually get to know them and find out if their work makes them happy, whether it is just a job or something they are passionate about. You likely will find people who are satisfied with life at almost all wealth levels, just like you find people who are miserable at all wealth levels.

I'd recommend that you step back from your desire to avoid all discomfort, and instead step out of your comfort zone, explore the diversity this world has to offer, and get to know more people.
Yes, in a way. When I worked for GDS, I was their representative to the W3C. There are still a number of people there who are on various W3C committees where - I assume - they regularly interact with browser makers and other interested parties.
For me, the experience gave me the realization that everything is a hallucination, that all of your every day experience and thoughts are constructs, and that knowledge becomes as fundamental and intimate as the sensation of breathing or touching. If you're paying attention on psychedelics, you realize that your skull is your very own Plato's cave.

Going from caffeine and occasional marijuana to mushrooms was wild. You'd have a better chance of learning how to fly a helicopter from a book than understanding what psychedelics will feel like by reading or listening. Naive users might get fooled by a niacin flush or placebo, but once you've experienced it (and paid attention) there's no way you'll mistake the real thing.

It also gives you the perspective needed to appreciate music like Shpongle and hippie intellectuals like McKenna and Watts. If you haven't experienced psychedelics, you're like a blind person being told about colors. You literally can't understand it until you live through it. Like orgasms or childbirth or religious ecstasy, some things transcend mere explanation.

Psychedelics are great since they give you a shortcut right into the matrix, and you're confronted with the fact that you are indeed in a simulation, and that your existence in relation to the rest of the universe isn't nearly as distinct and cleanly delineated as you thought.

The radical changes in personality stem from whatever neural machinery that governs openness to experience. I think it makes sense that the change makes people less depressed and anxious. You allow yourself to pay attention to other things, and it becomes easier to avoid fixating and catastrophizing everything wrong in your life.
OK, now run the same remediation process except now you're maintaining all of your high availability database clusters yourself. :-)

RDS, simple as it may seem on the surface, is one of the things I'm most grateful for in AWS.

You know that Russian tanks are throwaway tanks. Low quality, cheap and fast production, built to abandon.
This is to be expected. For mortgages, absolute amounts matter much less than long-term predictability (especially so in these times). A government employee with 65k salary has better chances for mortgage approval than a contractor bringing in 150k.

> I'd say if the drone works well…

Well that’s the point, does it? Without knowing the failure rate and operational effectiveness it’s impossible to say. Maybe 50% of missions fail due to fuel line problems and the camera doesn’t work on cold days.
At what point does a legitimately motivated activity become illegitimate when it is partially funded, without the participants direct knowledge, by parties that hope the activity will undermine others?

Like, -- say there was a Save the Sea otter campaign that was pushing for closing down nuclear power plants because of their harm to the sea otter habitat (if this is actually a thing, sorry, I'm trying to make a silly example). This is a subject that reasonable people can differ on and it's very wholesome and within our tradition that people ought to be able to advocate for that. But then Russia hears about this and decides that getting rid of nuclear power would be bad for our economy, increase our dependency on their energy exports, and that the issue is the right mix of fringe and credible that it could become very divisive and distracting. ... So they massively fund it.

Would that make the issue any less legitimate? Why? it's not the fault of the advocates -- particular if they don't know that its being funded for malicious reasons or they aren't personally the recipients of the funding.

And if it doesn't make it less legitimate-- why would it be relevant to bring up in a discussion of the issue? It might be worth bringing up in the context of russian interference, but "our enemies fund this" isn't a particularly valid counter argument against the issue itself.

... particularly because the main motivation for malicious funding could be divisiveness rather than the advocated action itself being bad for us. If we did start to reject ideas because Russian funded promoting them then this would create an obvious vulnerability where they conspicuously fund the best ideas in order to kill them. You can't fight manipulation by doing the opposite of what it tells you to do since the manipulator can use reverse psychology.
Exactly. Arriving to the city center and skipping all the airport hassle is huge.
I can imagine it would be easier to send a "tourist" somewhere and buy up the entire local supply of available cameras and bring it home in a few suitcases, than it would to order custom-made modules possibly covered by sanctions.

In the end, I expect the producer of the drone would be the only one who can shed light on the situation.
As is quite clear in this thread, there really is no unified way of doing things.

Uppercase switches also strikes me as not very intuitive, either you need to look at the help page or you have to have the same mindset as the developer.

And still, the distinction between lowercase and uppercase switches are not easy to remember.

For the power user though it makes sense.
Squirrel: A Python library for fast and flexible large-scale data loading
Today we open-sourced Squirrel, a Python data infrastructure library that my colleagues and I have been working on over the past 1.5 years.

We’re a team of ~30 ML engineers developing machine learning solutions for industry and research. Across all our projects, we need to load large-scale data in a fast and cost-efficient way, while keeping the flexibility to work with any possible dataset, loaded from local storage, remote data buckets or via APIs such as HuggingFace. Not finding what we were looking for, we decided to build it ourselves.
But what if I were to lend my old android tablet to my visiting 4-year-old nephew, and I found they'd used my linked credit card to spend $500 on lootboxes in whalecraft?

Google is pretty famous for their nonexistent customer support, so I can't expect satisfaction there. And a chargeback would risk getting my entire account blocked.
I've traveled a lot by train in France, but one issue when comparing with travel by car is that, when traveling with three or more people, it'd be cheaper to take the car (and then you even avoid all the hassle of going to and from the station)
Are you implying Zuckerberg is fashionable? I'm not sure I've ever seen a positive comment about his appearance, in fact he's usually said to not even look like a living human
Excellent article. The entire blog has heaps of good stuff. What a find.

I wish more tech blogs were this well-written and focused.
That's true. C-2 Greyhound and the E-2 Hawkeye in the Navy. A-400 in Europe and An-70 in Ukraine.
In addition, the classic user interaction method for Macs has always been drag and drop between multiple on-screen windows, while Windows users have traditionally kept every window maximized.

Personally, I think it goes back to early Windows originally supporting very low resolution graphics cards where you simply couldn't display more than a single widow's worth of content at once.

Remember that EGA was only 640×350. You had to have a user interaction method that worked at such a low resolution.

Having things optimised for drag and drop between multiple windows is the reason for Classic Mac OS to only maximize a window enough so that the entire contents of the window is visible, instead of taking up the whole screen.
That's interesting and perhaps I should not be that surprised. If it did not work at all, then they would probably have changed it. Their KPI is probably ad revenue, but still if it worked for no one, then I would expect their revenue to decline as people spend their time elsewhere. But then again, where will you go and watch medium to long videos created by "normal" people? Vimeo? Perhaps youtube's interactions are despite their algorithm and not because.
Sure, but Mac's solution is neither. At least in the modern world where almost everything is done in your browser.
Many voltage sources are themselves circuits and the EMF element would be hidden therein.
When the engineers have choice between going to gulag or disappearing completely or delivering such elegant duct tape, spit and glue based solution… No general will ask for shaker or temperature chamber test results. These things must just fly couple times. I bet, that same machine made in Germany would be at least 20x more expensive.
Isn't being able to criticize this country literally the first right of any American? Which he is now...

I think people like you are the least patriotic people out there. When you hear faults pointed out about your country you defend the faults because of your ego, your country is only valuable relative to the benefit it provides your ego. Patriots find faults in their country because they want their country to improve and to be greater, especially if it means admitting weakness and faults. They don't hide problems under the rug or wait for enemies to exploit faults. They identify faults and fix them, stopping the enemy and increasing the greatness of their country at the expense of their ego.

The Berlin airport, in fairness, is a bit of an edge-case; cost/time overruns on that scale aren't normal.
Interesting remark:

> Le Corbusier’s Pessac is now viewed as an architectural success. The picket fences and the pitched roofs and the garden gnomes are gone, and his original vision is restored. I wonder if Le Corbusier himself would have approved of that. The very fact that his designs were so easily modified was, arguably, their strength. When he was told about the garden gnomes of Pessac, he replied, “You know, life is always right; it is the architect who is wrong.” Managers should remember that.
> you confirm to every neutral Russian that the world is against them for simply being Russians

Occam'ed your passage.
>Given that the war was meant to capture the capital on day three. By now putin would have expected most of the ruling class to have been disappeared by now and a puppet government almost fully formed, I think yes, its been a cockup.

The western propaganda assumes that Putin had one success scenario - just the most optimistic one - rather than a range of them.

Attempting to take Kyiv was a gamble that didnt work out but it also wreaked havoc on Ukrainian military infrastructure around kyiv and took heat off the eastern front. A gamble that didnt pay off but not a 100% waste and not even a particularly bad gamble.

The land bridge to crimea is almost in the bag. That's one milestone that holds the highest strategic value to Moscow in and of itself. It controls the sea of azov now and has entrenched its previously precarious strategic position on the black sea (site of its only warm water ports).

It also provides land buffer against the economic and energy chokepoint that is the land bridge between the caspian and the black sea.

The Russians would settle for a bruised, broken and weakened independent Kyiv. They wont settle for a mariupol that might host NATO forces. Theyll gladly nuke it rather than see that.
Also note the presence of US made FLIR Tau2 thermal imager.

Reportedly, it can also be equipped with Israeli made payloads: http://www.airwar.ru/enc/bpla/orlan10.html
I took a Megabus from Houston to Austin one time, it was honestly the worst bus journey I have ever taken in my life. A man sat down next to me, talking to himself, rocking back and forth holding a screw driver. There were a lot of other "interesting" characters on the bus as well.

When I arrived in Austin and told the story, my colleagues told me that the different cities would buy bus tickets for homeless people to move them from city to city. I don't know if that was the case here or not, but my guess would be that at least a large portion of the passengers had mental health issues.

At the time, I was concerned with my personal safety, but afterwards I was wondering if there was something I could have done to help :(.
Sadly the Draconis civilization was obliterated 10 years ago, by a Supernova way too close to their planetary system. Lucky Earth Inners dodge another cosmic bullet.
I read "it changed my life" so many times on internet, but from personal experiences and many friends I don't know anyone who'd noticeably changed their life for better.

Except for only one friend, who ended up suicidal and delusional beyond repair, frequent mental hospital dweller (although all doctors said drugs could only exacerbate a pre-existing condition, but not create it from scratch).

I wonder why so big discrepancy between internet and real life here.

There is truth in that energy density. but it is still cheaper energetically to chill boil off to liquid back to the tank that to make new hot hydrogen you then chill to liquid back to the tank. The end game of clathrate storage will solve many of these problems.
Yeah its disgusting the lack of understanding of the power features of windows that the new developers obviously lack deep understanding of, how many many workflows they've been breaking with 11.

What does this mean? Could a state not pass laws and then force Walmart to comply with those laws while operating inside the state?
Im French rail planning, rail is considered competitive with air travel up to 3h. In German planning, up to 4h. With 250km/h average, that would allow up to 1000km.

Plus, one could try to revive night trains. Arriving at 9am in the morning in some far away city, we’ll rested, would be useful both for vacations and business trips. And could easily allow distances of 1500km even without having high speed rail lines everywhere, or somewhat longer distances with.
> We do not have (yet) any public-facing applications that need to scale across multiple geographical zones and handle millions of requests per minute.

Most don't. 1mm requests per minute is very pedestrian for a single vm in virtually all cases. 1mm per second is totally reasonable too if you are careful with a few things...

I genuinely believe you could put the literal public Netflix biz experience on a single VM. Account management, billing, preferences, view history, etc. The only pieces that need cloud scale are ddos mitigation, 4k video streams and media-dense static web content. Most businesses do not have strong need for these things.
A very fair assessment by OP. Mac window management isn't great but I personallu got around to getting used to it.
Some lessons are very hard to learn after the event, the author is right that it's better to learn these ones up front.

As someone who used Mac back then: mostly just complain about it and accept that OSX did not have any good way of stashing away windows. I am still not impressed but is less painful now that we have virtual desktops.

The problem is, no one here has the credibility to draw a community of game developers worth the effort - so any attempt is bound to wind up as just another failed HN clone unless it's an actual startup with millions of dollars and the SV hype machine behind it. For all its faults, Reddit is still the best option.

/r/truegamedev is supposed to be a better version of /r/gamedev, that might be one option. I keep a list of programming and gamedev subreddits in RES. There's a lot of noise but that seems to be where the conversation is.

Also Twitter. Just about every game developer, from AAA to indie, in every discipline has a Twitter account, and a surprising amount of technical discussion goes on there.
How would that work? Would people fly from Paris to Berlin via Dubai rather than take the train?
Gamification only teaches kids one thing: how to game the system.
Did it feel natural to you in 2011? It's not that old of a change. You can get used to it no doubt and I almost feel like it makes sense on trackpads but not so much on scroll wheels. Why fight 10+ years of muscle memory for literally no gain and a bunch of pain everywhere else?
> How are you setting them?

I'm old school, so ctrl+c, shift+end (maybe tweak selection area with cursors if Excel is being dumb) and ctrl+v.
I can think of a couple of potential reasons.

Higher costs due to tax rates and/or cost to comply with New Zealand regulations spread over a relatively small subscriber base.

Small New Zealand subscriber base and New Zealand not being a main target market for The Economist means New Zealand subscribers do not generate as much additional advertising income as those in the US. This is offset by increased subscription rates.
Not being a mac user myself, the ubinquity of homebrew made me think it was native for many years, to the point that I'd been tempted several times to make the switch (not because having a package manager is that fantastic, but it signals a lot about the intended use of the OS). I always thought MacOS was more stable than Linux, but more open to devs than Windows, but now I'm not so sure about that second point.

I doubt I'd get a mac anyway because there aren't many games I could play on it, but I have been previously tempted over the past year or so.

why not make the application create a directory for its tempfiles, and then remove that directory along with the tempfiles?

>> And what do you do if someone disagrees with the crowd? How do you force him without coercieon? (hint those two words are synonyms).

I think as the parent poster was saying, this is possible with smaller groups. I think the best example would be townships in the US. Different townships decide on the level of tax and investing (especially into school systems.) Then, individuals self-select themselves into groups by choosing where to live.

I have friends upset about how not all schools are "top-tier" schools. I quote "top-tier" as it is in the eye of the beholder what that means. The thing is, not everyone wants their kids to have 5hrs of homework a night. Nor does everyone want to pay 20k+ in annual property taxes. Some would rather home-school or send their kids to private or parochial schools.

People often achieve this by joining a township that agrees with their appetites in spending and other political choices.
