I've worked in graphic design and marketing on and off for like 15 years.

Do designs TYPICALLY change every 5 ish years. Yes.

Is it because of a good reason, I claim no.

While designs in companies do evolve and can be significantly different, you should still be able to tell the origin. What normally happens the creative/marketing director moves on to a new company and is replaced. The new blood has a self imposed outlook that they need to change all the things significantly to prove their vision exists. You saw this with Avis and their incredibly successful, "we are the 2nd place car rental agency, so we work harder to get your business." Except a new marketing team then got brought on due to exec politics/shuffling. Obviously the new firm cant do what the old one did because they have to prove themselves... and they dropped the ball and things went to shit.

Company restructuring, politics and egos have more to do with design changes than the unicorn world of design trends.

This neobrute idea is just a lazier version of the 90s aesthetic. Like, a basic bitch reimagining with no personality. I bet designers who like this trend are vegan and like watching The Office on repeat because, "OMG, like, the office is my favorite show ev-vaaaaaa." My 2 cents.
At the very least timed-restricted eating has helped my relationship with food. When I was eating three evenly-spaced meals a day, I was constantly in this pseudo state of kind of hungry, kind of full, but never really very hungry or very full, and always thinking about eating but not eating too much. After doing a pretty easy variation of time restricted eating I literally never think about food other than when I'm eating. I really like the feeling of actual hunger, and then eating when I'm actually hungry. And how much I eat or want to eat just kind of never seems to be a problem.

But beyond that I'm skeptical of the claim there's no benefit, I've felt healthier and my bloodwork has improved, but maybe something else caused that (I wouldn't know what).
I agree. The "limited government" advocates in the US are just hypocrites. They grant so much power to corporations that behemoths like the telcos can buy the government and write the laws granting themselves de facto monopolies — so it's not "limited government" any more.
Seems like this is more a story type thing?
My first reaction was: sigh _another_ tool to help ML/DS folk not write a Dockerfile? Aren't there enough already?

But at closer glance cog seems to have an edge on some of the competitors like Seldon or Bento - namely using modern Python libraries (like Pedantic and FastAPI), CUDA/cuDNN/PyTorch/Tensorflow/Python compatibility, and (probably most important to me) automatic queue workers.

It generated a 1GB image with nothing but Python 3.8 in the config, so folks who really care about deployment size would want to continue writing their own container files.
Yeah it's funny, my workstation is a 12yo HP-Z600 workstation upgraded for like 30$ to 2CPU's/16Cores and 47GB Ecc-Ram, and now someone tells me it's retro but it's still often faster than new Hardware.
I think that context matters. Coming out of the 1940's, where fascism preyed on nostalgia and fear, brutalism brings forward a concept of the future that is both fearless and lacks nostalgia. Not seeing the world through your imagination of how you want to see it, but how it really is. Unlike Albert's Spear's or Mussolini's Roman and Greek inspired pieces (setting EUR aside), a brutalist view is honest, simple, and looking forward. There are, of course, counter-examples like the Eastern European memorials - which sometimes favored a heavy grandeur.

My take on this is that designers look at something like a concrete building and thing "big", "ugly", "no-like" and then make something that rejects the current overly-clean, friendly design of most sites. It's not brutalist in the sense it is trying to move to a vision of the future free from deception and nostalgia, it's more dank basement bar and garage band esthetic. Some of those sites look like they could be the covers of 1980 punk or new-wave albums. I could see some of it on a Dickies album cover or promoting some 1982 art-house film about sadistic chipmunks.

N26 spared no effort to ignore and avoid any interference and control by BaFin. They are a different beast than Sparkasse or Deutsche. At one point, the only way for BaFin to contact N26 was via the customer hotline. There was no way for the banking regulation and control entity to contact them. N26 evaded BaFin as long as they coud. They've built their company and infrastructure extremely fast and extremely recklessly.

From your comment, you went unnecessarily political regarding the January 6, 2021 insurrection. In my view, this is why people downvoted your comment. The common narrative is that it was insurrection. It was certainly a dangerous mob driven by Trump and cronies intending to interfere with the US election proceedings without justifiable cause beyond pseudo-creedal feelings that somewhere, somehow, the election was stolen.
As with car testing, it is usually preferable, on engineering grounds, to perform the tests in a more controlled environment where the parameters can be tightly controlled and the outcomes exhaustively measured.

Here's a description of one such series of tests, and some video:

I updated the original post with Musk's original tweet which I should have done originally.
I see it is a common experience for someone learning a new language as an adult to find the new language they're learning beautiful, because of all the new connections between words and roots... "oh, it's neat how this word for 'child' is from an old root word for 'love', oh it's neat that this word for 'afraid' also carries the connotations of 'dark cave'", etc.

It's easy to miss that your birth language has all the same associations. You just learned it and deeply internalized it at a time when you missed that sort of thing. Look at it with fresh eyes and a bit of study and you may be surprised at what similar beauty lies within it.

And this is a good example. Yes, the denotation of the English word "brutal" and the architecture term "brutalism" may not be directly connected. But the words considered as a whole are connected, across a family of related European languages, with rich associations going back centuries. It is far from merely "coincidence" that the words are so related. It can be helpful and informative to know that the denotations aren't as related as they may look, but trying to tell people that they're completely unrelated terms is incorrect. There is a complicated, interesting, and even in its own way, beautiful connection between brutalism as an architectural style and brutal as an adjective.

there's plenty of things I don't like in newer windows versions, but the introduction of compositing is not one of them
Call me bitter, but it's happened.

I think the best solution is to break these companies up the way we did with Bell. No national telecom companies, franchises, shared ownership, shared revenue, or profits. Force each company to be a local provider. Outlaw contracts for more than 6months where infrastructure is already built.

Why would this work? Take what happened with Google Fiber. In KC where I live, as soon as Comcastic saw an approved "fiber hood", they blitzed the area, and I mean drenched the area, with door hangers, mailings, and other propoganda to sign up for services with 2-5 year contracts that were likely below cost. This prevented Google Fiber from recovering any investment quickly.

There's no way a hometown local provider could finance such shenanigans. Creating an ISP for a single neighborhood isn't terrible expensive if there's backhaul in place. Having a plethora of choices would be good for everyone.
Please see the edited post for the source, it was a Musk tweet.
Musk announces funding secured for Twitter buy
>It's not biased to moderate something like "vaccines cause autism".

I surrender. I agree, we absolutely should be doing something. The point elon is planning with the open sourcing is to simply make it public. I figure most political folks wont really argue over the autism thing.

>It's been legally and scientifically established as outright misinformation. The genesis of that theory was a disgraced researcher who pushed fraudulent claims with misrepresented data. The paper was retracted for "scientific misconduct".

Here is the interesting thing. Do we fix the conversation by banning people from talking about it?

When you tear out a man's tongue, you are not proving him a liar, you're only telling the world that you fear what he might say. -George R. R. Martin

Or would it be better to allow people to talk about it and just post a warning that it's discredited and link?

>And yet now moderating false claims that have a detrimental effect on public health outcomes is seen as a "leftist government conspiracy".

I chose vaccines cause autism because it's a great example of something that is harmful to society. Something that might be worth censoring but when you block or even secretly shadowban this subject. It even makes me want to know more. Sure looks like conspiracy to me.

But I also kind of point to NYTimes and incoming CNN ceo who are telling their journalists to break out of their twitter echo chambers.

twitter censors far more than this subject. The anticonservative bias that twitter creates also ends up forming echo chambers for the left. Who then dont see criticism of their work. The consequence that NYTimes for example sees is that they stop reporting properly, they report on their echo chamber. They then fundamentally break journalism ethics rules.
I can confirm this. Did it when I was younger. On night shift, I was interrupted only three or four times per week. Lonely, though.
I don't put much faith in things Turley writes. He went off the deep end a long time ago and went into crazy town. Marc Elias has, correctly IMO, labeled him as "the pillow guy, but with tenure."
Agreed. This article misunderstands brutalism.

In the web's case, what are our raw materials? System fonts, default user-agent stylesheets, #000000 and #ffffff, perhaps?
I feel like this article is over-representing how much SpaceX kept the country online. How much of Ukraine's traffic went over the SpaceX satellites? Even in the east where most of the destruction and fighting happened, people have cell reception. Article made it sound like without SpaceX, Ukraine would not have internet. But doesn't Ukraine have connections to Europe through Poland and it's other neighbors? Russia would need to literally cut the cables or destroy every cellphone tower and ISP and backbone providers in the country (Russia didn't do any of these things). This also kind of reveals that SpaceX and other radio based technology is more vulnerable to attacks than wired connections. Also shows how resilient the design of the internet is! Routing algorithms FTW!

I call BS that it was SpaceX that kept the country online.
Did you have a rationale argument against the points he raises? Or just trying to smear him?
why would they block the account
It's a local optimum. Wealthy suburbs are better than small farms for tax dollars. There's lots of demand for housing due to a neighboring municipality's desirability (Burlington, VT). Ergo, it's worth replacing small farms with suburbs that supply this demand.
That's really it.

The point is that people 'graze' to maintain blood sucrose levels and avoid the problems associated with high carb diets. Were your energy levels 'dive' between meals. Because of this Americans tend to have 8-10 "meals" (ie: including snacks) a day.

If this is normal for you:

A hour or two after lunch you get distracted and tired at work so you go up to the vending machine or office kitchen and get a snack. Grab a soda, get some chips, etc to keep yourself awake and focused.

Then that is the problem here we are trying to solve.

So by having time-constrained eating habits this eliminates this for most of the day except for the time period we have designated for eating.

Which means that time controlled eating is a behavior/metabolic "hack" to reduce overall calorie consumption. This way you get conditioned to only wanting to 'graze' during a specific time period.

If you force the study participants to control for calorie input then you are accomplishing the same thing we attempt to do with time constrained eating, just in a different way.

My naive assumption was that since the Starlink terminals use phased arrays for beamforming, they were much less susceptible to brute force frequency jamming to begin with. Is there some truth to that?

There is always an underlying assumption that making something scalable and making something quickly are mutually exclusive. As tools and libraries get better, I hope these two things can exist together. Scalable things should be able to be written just as quickly as anything else. Take DynamoDB as an example. Very quick to set up and use. Also very scalable.
In Europe, this seems to be the standard model, especially with small publishers who have maybe 10 ISBNs and cycle their catalogue regularly.
Sounds like the cause is orthogonal to the presence of swap. What kind of persistent storage do you have on those computers? For me it's been an M.2 in both cases.

In their website they mention OpenSSH is a product of their efforts:

I agree with the team-size aspect, but the age argument won't always hold.

Junior folks bring their own energy, flexibility, hunger for learning and the resilience to unclear future. As folks get more mature, growing egos, stability expectations, tendency to settle down can get in the way.

Overall, this boils down to the fact that teams and people are not just head counts and there's a factor of chemistry need to be considered depending on the culture, founders, geography and the business itself.
This is a great solution and while I was at Google I noticed several high commit frequency teams using this strategy. Of course Google had built a bunch of custom tooling and infrastructure around it, so I can’t vouch for how easy it would be to integrate into a different company’s dev workflow, but if there are enough developers to make it worthwhile, then tasking a few developers with setting this up should be a useful allocation of engineer time.
> This is my pet peeve when using linux as desktop. Does anyone know if this can be disabled entirely? Something like mlockall(MCL_ONFAULT) but for all the processes. I wish there was a knob for this (e.g. vm.swappiness=-1) but I haven't found one. :(

Looks like the supported way of doing this is to use the vmtouch(8) utility to ensure that the files (or file pages) you care about are resident in RAM. There's also a fadvise utility, packaged within fcoretools, that seems to be similar.
I don't recall exactly, but probably 1-4GB. Not particularly low memory, but when something would come along that needed more memory than the system had, say a load burst, I was quite surprised to find the systems without swap just stop responding. I was expecting OOM killer to kill the offending process, the load balancer to remove it from the load, monitoring to say what process had gotten killed, but instead, even after waiting half an hour, the system was just wedged.
I'd imagine any plan that forced you to think about what and when you eat would make you feel better and have your bloodwork improve. If you meal prepped all food you ate on the original schedule every Sunday, that probably would also have helped. Anything that got you out of grazing on snacks all day and making eating decisions with your non-lizard brain.
"tiny portion of federal revenue?" It's 36% of all Federal revenue. It used to constitute almost 80% of Federal revenue in the 40's/50's, but the cap has made its contributions drop.

The Federal income tax is progressive, but only if you ignore that the payroll taxes are highly regressive income taxes. When you look at them as a whole, it's readily apparent that the overall Federal income tax system is regressive.

is at odds with:

As soon as there's any UI at all, one has to deal with much of the complexity of modern UI. For one thing, I'm sure modern firmware has to support modern HID input devices, such as USB keyboards. But also, ideally, that UI should be accessible to people who can't use a minimal screen-and-keyboard UI implementation, such as blind people. This is an area where, even with UEFI, PCs fall short. I like the way Apple has resolved this on its Apple Silicon Macs [1]. As I understand it, as soon as the Mac has to display any UI at boot time, it boots into a minimal version of macOS itself, where VoiceOver and any other accessibility tool can run.

I agree, though, that in the common case where the default OS is booted, the path from power-on to OS kernel should be as short as practical. Booting into a BIOS in 8086 emulation mode hardly seems like the best way to do this. But then, a design-by-committee solution like UEFI might not be optimal either. It pains me somewhat to say this, but Apple's proprietary, vertically integrated solution might be near optimal.

Just stay silent until the other person speaks.
The one thing I have realized two things over a period of time. One, we just don’t know human metabolism enough and we don’t have a standard way to extrapolate how a diet might impact the body. Two, all of these plans try to cheat and so may be ineffective, the only way is to burn more calories than you take in, cannot go wrong.

False. Windows Home does not come with encryption, Windows Pro has it but it is optional and disabled by default. Also, Secure Boot uses generic keys which some Linux distributions are also signed with, so if I steal a piece of hardware, there is a 90%+ chance I can just boot Linux and dump the disk contents unencrypted. And if it is encrypted, I could still boot Linux leaving Secure Boot intact, and try glitching the TPM which has been well-documented as quite possible.
This is part of the aggressive financialization of everything. The most direct example is that there are whole departments for handling loans, and the cost of those departments are figured into the price of education!

In my opinion the by far biggest mistake with copyright is that it shouldn't depend on the age of the author, it should be dependent on the release date.

The whole 70 years after death nonsense is just an ugly hack to equalize the fact that copyright will last fewer years if you are older. It doesn't even solve the original problem! If you are younger you still get more copyright years.
