I'm the same - growing up I was allowed to roam freely, within reason. For example, I would hike and camp overnight with my parents having only a rough idea where I was.

But like you, I don't think I'd be happy with my kids doing things like that (my kids aren't quite old enough yet anyway).

I think part of it is realising that some of the things I did were pretty fucking stupid, and could have ended very badly. For example, I recall exploring a dilapidated house that was falling to pieces - in the middle of nowhere in rural Scotland. I could very easily have died if something had gone wrong.

I'm certain the media is a large part of it too - the overwhelming focus on doom and gloom feels very unhealthy for society as a whole.

That doesn't explain all of it though; I realise we live in safe times, but still find myself being overprotective, sometimes seemingly irrationally.
And 20k GBP will buy a lot more in your EU country than in the UK.

You know that your startup doesn’t need to target the US/UK/English speaking world right? You can launch a service or product in your EU country and, similar to the cost of living difference, your capital requirements will be much smaller.

> wide gamut display defaults to their native gamut even in 8-bit mode, which is virtually never the right thing to do.

Then why have a wide gamut display!?!

The whole point is that you have a greater capability. It should be on all the time, not just when doing "professional image editing" or whatever. There SHOULD be no downside!

Similarly with HDR -- it is literally a superset of SDR, so then why are there endless support form complaints about it causing issues when enabled!? It SHOULD just work! Instead, early versions in Windows 10 would shift the desktop by 1/2 a pixel and cause blurring. Or darken the desktop. Or more recently force everything to sRGB, including colour-managed applications light Adobe Photoshop or Lightroom.

The correct thing to do is for each display to always be running in native gamut mode. The whole concept of in-display colour space emulation is absurd[1]. Instead, the display should feed back its native gamut to the operating system, which should then take care of tone mapping via either software or the GPU hardware. This almost happens now. Displays have EDID metadata that include the "coordinates" of their colour primaries. Windows even picks this up! Aaaaand then ignores it, and even strips out the information in newer SDKs like Win UI 3, because... I don't even know.

[1] Ideally, GPUs should be doing tonemapping under OS control, but to avoid banding this would need 12-bit or even higher output to the display. This would take too much bandwidth, so instead displays do tone mapping using LUTs with as many as 14-bits. Except that these LUTs are 1D and control over them is totally broken...
When your supplier decommits on your order, new order lead times are > 52 weeks and the open market price is 2 orders of magnitude higher than buying new, this starts to make some sense. Either you find a way to make product to sell, or you don't sell any product. It's ugly out there right now.

According to Wikipedia, Intel’s 945 chipset for Core 2 processors ships with UEFI. This was originally released in 2006.

Note that Google Chrome which is the web browser with the highest adoption rate requires a CPU with SSE3 support which was introduced in 2004.

Which platform older than a Core 2 can even run the latest operating systems? The very latest Pentium 4 range (2004-2006)? So we would just be dropping support for them? That’s OK.

This is not exactly what the page says. It says nothing about them be free to give the same ISBN to someone else.

Typical case: a publisher gets hundreds of ISBNs in bulk. At some point they close their business. The agency can give the unused numbers to someone else. Determining which were unused is not always easy, since there is no requirement to inform them when one is assigned to a book -- therefore mistakes are made. The end result is that re-use is possible (and actually happens).

Unless students are educated in financial literacy and professional life as part of the curriculum, I'm not sure we can expect them to be making competent, experience-based decisions on the cost benefit of education on a 20+ year timescale.

That was to be expected though; I guess this is happening all over the place. The acquirer should do something about it. If they the acquirer is told and they don't fix it, then Visa/MC don't have much more choice (because they are US and fall under the sanctions) than suspending that provider, so I would guess they would immediately tell them to stop or kill their account.

I've been running a business for 25 years. On the outside it would appear I am self taught, self funded and built it all myself. I don't like to argue privilege in most cases but as I get older I have to say I do recognize things I had access to that gave me the ability to do this, where someone with the same drive simply could not. Back in the 90s as a teenager my parents bought a family computer (which would have been thousands), got access to the internet which at some point was long distance phone calls only, and kept it after I ran up a phone bill in the hundreds of dollars. I also built my business on open source software. We all build up from others work. Not everyone has understanding parents, some perhaps would have internet cancelled, or worse for running up such a large bill. My parents were not at all wealthy at the time. We don't control the cards we are dealt and I think arguing privilege is a lost cause. What we should do is if we get to a point where we can do it, try help give more opportunities to everyone.

You are right. I wonder if it would make sense for distros to put processes that are critical for interacting with your computer in a cgroup with 0 swappiness, so your computer remains responsive, even if some processes gets dog slow.

Some candidate processes:

* ssh-server

* X/wayland

* Desktop environments

* Maybe some terminal emulators and shells?

The tricky part is that you probably want at least a shell that remains responsive, but you probably don't want to set their child processes' swappiness to 0. There could be some whitelisted system utilities that are known to not consume a lot of resources, so you can list processes conveniently and kill the appropriate ones.

I assume Windows also treats some processes specially so it can remain responsive, and I think now with appropriately set cgroups Linux could have the same capability.

I think you should reach out to his relatives and ask them for their opinion. Then you can do this with a clean conscience.
A side note: we clearly live in a society where appearance count more than substance, so spectacles are the core of social trends, a modern and even worse version of classic "panem et circense". Given that the point more than discovering and punishing those who try profiting from others need of spectacle/pleasure, witch in the end can be a legit job so many do in different form and different grotesque's levels, it would be interesting discussing how we got there and how we can correct the aim given that we all like being pleased and we all like easy things, like any living being.

The actual dominant school of though say "please peoples steering the where you wish, no good intentions will remain unpunished" my proposal is try finding ways of win-win games vs the actual win-lose ones...

To be perfectly fair, this level of volatility is not even seen in BTC anymore, wow! You have to go to the super leveraged exit scam alts to see a 62% drop.

For all this talk about stability being critical to the health of the established markets, this really is egg on the face when a FAANG has taken such losses on a service which they have this much market-share on in comparison to the rest of the Industry.

Netflix's share price peaked in November 2021 and is about 62% lower year-to-date.

Covid 19 is going to have introduced a generation with the worst handwriting we've seen so far. By worst I mean both incorrect and illegible, and I'm basing this observations of my daughters who were in 1st and 4th grade during the first lockdown. Admittedly, they already had what I would call "poor" handwriting.

I have no problem with the idea that legible is the primary criterium for handwriting. Correctness as I and my parents and grandparents learned is really just a matter of self-respect, I think. Correctness was already on the way out by the time I came along anyway. There was a uniformity to my mother's and grandmothers' handwritings that was not present among my peers and me in school.

The only experience that I have that says someone must continue to learn cursive is that there are lots of historically important (or at least interesting) documents that are difficult to read even for me, and my kids would have a harder time still. Reading is not the same as writing of course, so merely practice reading these types of things is probably enough. I guess it's similar to Fraktur, which is difficult to read if you've never seen it, but not that bad with just a little practice.

I often find brutalist buildings to be comfortable and inspiring.
The only real solution (at least until and unless the kernel OOM killer is tuned to be massively more aggressive, which I doubt will happen) is to run a userspace OOM killer. If you don't like systemd-oomd, there are many alternatives, some which even show a desktop notification when you're dangerously low on memory and when it actually kills processes.

Maybe it would be interesting to see if there could be better kernel APIs for things like userspace OOM killers; ideally, we'd want to guarantee that the userspace OOM killer is always prioritized in low-memory situations, and ideally it'd be possible to install low memory event listeners into the kernel rather than to poll.
You can just watch the cycles and write it down, it's boring and rather time consuming.

Hoover actually had a model with programmable cycles (you put your custom cycle on Android and upload it via an NFC tag on the washer). What you could set was very limited, but they tried, I guess.

What's your underlying point here? That people shouldn't be doing things in python that take up a lot of memory?
True, I was thinking about that too.

But one aspect of brutalist architecture is "showing how it's made", making infrastructure visible, making structural apparatus visible. And making raw materials visible for what they are, not trying to make them look like something they're not. That's part of it's "rawness" too, as I've always understood it -- it's not just about using concrete.

That part does seem to some extent apply to what's being called here "neobrutalism" in the web. Stark obvious borders and shadows, instead of subtle gradients that blend in and don't draw your attention to them, or which give you photographic or realistic effects to imitate something they're not. Emphasizing the "computer-y-ness" of what you're looking at. Skeuomorphic tries to look like something other than it is; minimalist design hopes you don't think about what the thing is made of at all to distract you from the information -- but this design we're talking about instead intentionally reminds you that you are looking at a computer screen. That's an honest similarity to brutalism maybe.

So, as an appreciator of architectural brutalism, from the headline (and not knowing much about the web design 'trend') I came prepared to make your point... by the end I was begrudgingly saying, meh, okay, fine, close enough. It does draw your attention to the "way it's made" similar to what I understand as actually one of the core values of architectural brutalism; as well as being kind of a challenge to more polite notions of aesthetics in a way that's similar to brutalism's effect even if it's not what the word "brutal(ism)" was actually meant for (although in English at least I think the 'misunderstanding' may not have been wholly unknown/unintentional originally). I guess it's close enough, I'll allow it, I don't need to pick this fight. (although I too wish the author had talked a bit more accurately about architectural brutalism). (On the other hand this design stuff also has lots of non-functional even playful decorative elements, which is contrary to architectural brutalism).
Yep. Well they did in the 80s but since then I think there are a growing but still tiny number of exceptions. And the money still has a god on it, and courts use a bible in the ceremony for giving testimony in trials, and laws about limiting vices (alcohol) on Sundays are almost universal...
I would imagine it actually looks even worse since low-mid tier laptops can only display 60% sRGB.

3 months ago, claymorphism was taking over the web, and before that, neumorphism and glassmorphism and what have you. All this "taking over" and nomenclature was an invention of a single person, so it looks like a wannabe fashion designer wanting to make a big name for himself and set trends.

These days there's quite a choice of frames / materials / groupset options and they're as close to a jack-of-all-trades as it gets.

Depending on some basic components / extras (tyres, racks, aerobars, bags) they can do almost any reasonable terrain. They're always "slightly worse" than the dedicated road/MTBs, but excel when You'd like to mix things up (e.g. your hilly tracks need some 20km of road to get to from where you live and putting a bike in a car simply feels silly).

I have, in a drawer in my office, the motor and an absolutely fascinating motor drive board from an Electrolux washing machine that a colleague brought in. It appears to be a three-phase variable frequency drive (VFD) with an elegant architecture - an optically isolated digital interface to the rest of the controls allows it to use simple shunts for current sensing - and stunning attention to cost, with details like a silver through hole CEM-3 PCB. (note this is no longer cheaper than plated-through FR4). It does have a monster TI DSP on it.

It's about 20 years old. Your appliances have been more sophisticated than you think for longer than you think.

It is surprising, of course, that someone would rip up a new washing machine for parts, but not shocking. I imagine it would have to be very specifically for low-volume, high margin industrial equipment, which the article hints at but does not make explicit.

I definitely agree with this. I don’t know that I have any particular insight on infrastructure, but I think one of the things that makes huggingface and SMP [0] successful is a well defined common model and data API.

It can be hard to clone a random research repo and train models on custom datasets because the model API is slightly different, or expects the data in a different format. I think this is a thing in graph neural networks right now, where different libraries use different data formats, and some groups roll their own
