Maybe it’s my play style that is different. I don’t sit in the park, under the sun, to play handheld gaming devices. I do play on busses, trains and airplanes, as well as indoors, where there isn’t a lot of ambient light. I used to sit under a desk lamp to play the GB at evening/night. That was very uncomfortable.
I'm a programmer by trade. I use jq. :)
jq is great for shell scripts. Say your script hits an API that returns JSON, and you want to retrieve a single field. This can be difficult to do correctly with grep or other text matching tools, but is trivial with jq. You just pipe it in like "curl XYZ | jq '.path.to.your.data'"

I imagine this is how it's used 90% of the time, but can do lots more advanced stuff as described in the article.
Animall - Two IITians shunned the herd mentality to sell cattle online (2021)
“We don’t need pushing to the sides. What we need is the dull, factually correct and accurate middle. Because only from that middle will come the solutions. Solutions never come from extremes. It’s also irresponsible to state the problem in ways where, when you look closer, it’s not like that. There are these billions of people who want to burn more fossil fuel. There is very little you can do about that. They will burn it unless you give them something different. But who will give them something different? You have to recognize the realities of the world, and the realities of the world tend to be unpleasant, discouraging and depressing.”

I agree with all that except the conclusion. I don’t think we need to be so dour. The world is moving incredibly fast. China installed more wind energy last year than the entire world installed in the past 5 years. Dubai is on track to be 100% solar powered by 2050. We have solutions like stratospheric sulfur injections that we don’t want to use, but could if the permafrost starts melting. The world is not all doom. I love his anti-politics politics, though.
>What’s the sense of accomplishment you get from doing what another human being can do too right now?

So that's interesting right. Yes a plumber coming over could be replaced by a bot. But ultimately that bot replaces you as well.

>Psychologically, if you treat robots as people (albeit permanent slow witted, naturally compliant servants) then it’s easy to image a post scarcity world. We will all simply live like the upper class lives today except our servants and employees are made of silicon instead of flesh.

Like the instant I can buy a robot butler who will keep my house clean and cook me dinner. I do it. They will likely be in the $30-50,000 range. I'm getting that asap.

>Normal people would compete in the same way CEOs compete, by comparing how well they actually manage their resources.

It'll actually shift the economy to creativity. Robots make building an iphone ultra cheap but some person still needs to engineer and design it.
The video doesn't say (maybe because the answer is 0, but important if not) how much math Park did between the basic college math for the BS Math Education degree, and starting PhD at age ~30.

Did she study advanced math in college, or as a hobby during the pre-PhD years, or did she spend 10 years studying K-12 math very thoroughly while teaching, and then start going deeper?

That's playback latency. But if monitoring latency is too high, you get sloppy playing.

That's only relevant if you monitor through your audio interface, of course.

Also, I'm not sure if all DAWs have always compensated playback latency the way you describe. But I agree that it shouldn't be a problem in general.
A customizable UI is the first point of contact for usability and productivity. There isnt a reason to not provide these, stability is not an excuse especially when a lot of the answers in this thread are to install a 3rd party utility to accomplish them.

Window tiling and mouse button customization are easy and safe.

Lineage doesn't "break" android security model. It works around OEMs that don't support installing your own keys in the bootloader. Otherwise, security model works the same as any other android.

LineageOS's first priority isn't security - it's freedom. Graphene and CalyxOS have security as the first priority - but have only a couple of phones on their support list and they deprecate old devices as soon as they stop receiving vendor updates.
Bring us all together around what? Everyone always leaves that part out.

The only reasonable answer would be freedom, so that diverse people can be happy together. Anything else is merely a call for everyone else to do things the way you want.

But there's no consensus around freedom. When it comes down to it, a lot of people don't want it.
Great feedback! I’ll see if I have a moment to record a new one later.

Yes it's a nice illustration why you should not use a SaaS like plotly, especially considering that there are many options out there which could have put the plot into the post directly.
> Blood is not the only way to achieve peace! There are non-violent ways to sustain and build peace.

Which ways? Which way all invaded countries in WWII, WWI and other wars before could choose to sustain peace? They wanted peace and they got war because stronger nation invaded them.
So which way? International organizations? UN security council? Didn't stop invasion of Ukraine.

There is an old saying Si vis pacem, para bellum which means - If you want peace, prepare for war.
The thing is I have mixed feelings about it.

That article that was successful despite being unavailable had a clickbaity headline on the subject of institutional legitimacy. I can't get a single vote on meaty articles related to the topic like articles about Jurgen Habermas and his work.

I think for the most part when I write and post better things I get a better score. Frequently I acknowledge that things I wrote that got downvoted deserved to get downvoted.

There are still times I think the community can be easily played by submitting certain things that are pretty thin and still get upvoted. On the other hand, I've found that posting or commenting anything about

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Logic_of_Collective_Action

such as "the collective action problem is the asteroid that has mankind's name on it" gets a poor reception that I think is undeserved (It has broad applications across political science, one of them is that the common understanding of how "minorities" relate to majorities is completely wrong, something that gets discovered in the aftermath of elections in the US and immediately forgotten...)

Then there are those days that I just want to write a shitpost and I am proud about it in a perverse sense and don't care about getting voted down.
> Do you think making it more open source would solve the issue?

No is not what I'm arguing for here but you highlighted my concerns here, I see two points of failures/blackboxes that I am now betting the house on vs the "problem" mentioned (having to create API/Redux layer).

As I said, this might be an issue for indie/small startups looking to create an MVP but more often than not, you would want to optimize for hireability and removing the implicit. It would be tougher to find an Haskell dev compared to "boring" full stack devs, and this is just the start of the problems.

> Their complaint was that they need blue check notifications to be civil because the talent has to look for questions from reporters and other celebrities.

Well, then, here's the first half-truth. Milo may have roasted a celebrity who just made a bomb of a movie, but the complaints were largely about people responding to Milo who would also "@" the celebrity. So there really wasn't an issue that it was hard for this actor's staff to sort out questions from reporters, etc. She could have also simply blocked Milo. Problem gone!
>the reason shell scripts have endured is precisely because they are extremely good at that

It's very easy to make something extremely good at this and much less error prone. That's the main problem.

>often imposing awkward control flow on you or making things that should be simple much much more complicated.

There's literally one primitive paradigm for control flow, both bash and other languages incorporate it. if... else. <----That''s it.
I agree with your point, but:

> Graphs give me a much better idea of what I'd actually be getting

The issue with that is that you "have to have the feel" for the graph. Except for extreme circumstances, if you're not familiar with how to approximate the feel from the graph, it won't really help you.

I guess my point is that you still have to have some kind of actual, real-world experience.

In my case, I kind of deduced that I liked "bumpy" switches, so I went the "brown" route. I was happy with my Gateron Browns. When I wanted a second keyboard to not haul the first around, I figured Cherry Brown would be "close enough". They supposedly have the same specs and everything. Nope. They feel much "harder" to press.

I do like them enough, so I didn't send the KB back. But I do tend to miss some keys when I switch from Gateron to Cherry, and I do tend to press like crazy on the Gateron after switching from the Cherry.
You have taken a pay cut only if you haven’t figured out a way of saving part of your income and putting that into assets that beat inflation. If you spend the entire income and don’t save (and not even paying a mortgage to acquire an asset), then yes, you have taken a pay cut. That may be poor decision making (depending on the situation), especially if you’re earning $100,000 (which puts you in a tiny percentage at the top of the world in terms of income).

Inflation directly affects what you spend money on. You can choose to spend on other things that don’t suffer as much from inflation, but that may not be easy. On the other hand, how much you save from your income and where you put that is a lot more (relatively speaking) in your control.

Employers will match salaries based on supply, demand and other factors affecting the business. Inflation could affect the supply and demand equation, but is not a direct factor for them to consider. Companies exist to maximize profits. That also means paying the minimum possible to a person and extracting the maximum value from that person. Changes will happen when this equation is under threat.
I've got a ten year old Nexus running as well as a modern tablet thanks to cyanogenmod/lineageos.

Is there a more valuable free open-source community project like it for anything else in the world? Because it seems incredible to have.

Hard to figure a new tablet to buy that will get that same 10 year life, some custom rom development just vanishes over time. Popularity doesn't seem to be a guarantee.
It doesn’t have to be. Ideally it should be some time boxed mix of (1) finding yourself (2) once you find yourself specialize in that (3) make friends (4) get some work/research experience

Obviously that’s not for everyone. You don’t need to go to college to do any of that either. It’s a signal that you may have learnt something and may have some smarts if you went to a good school. Beyond that if you’re sharp and GSD on the job, that ultimately outweighs everything else. How you get there - doesn’t have to be via college.

This sounds like it's class-action worthy.
Just flash ‘LineageOS for MicroG’[1]—it already has F-Droid extension & obviously microG. Recovery images are provided right alongside, though of course you can use TWRP if you prefer but you don’t have to. IDK why you need root, but most people don’t need it. Push works just fine with microG alone, you just have to enable it in settings. Also LineageOS has an integrated backup solution now.

CRTs also have pretty high drawbacks... High energy use (remember the high energy use of plasma displays which were basically flattened CRTs). Flashing, bulk, high material cost. Radiation (since you were basically looking into a beta-radiation emitter).

So no. I don't think it will be back. Modern displays are much easier to make also, more high-tech but use less energy and materials.
Why is it a bad idea? ZFS sees tons of usage and gets shipped with multiple distros.

And I will simply never ever again use btrfs. Sorry, you can't claim to be stable and then lose my files to different times.

With ZFS I can use encrypted zfs send as a backup mechanism. Much preferable to alternatives.
I think the author underestimates how long he's financially hamstrung for. Yes he paid off the debt in a decade which is relatively impressive from a no degree job. But without that debt and with four extra years of work while he was in school when would he have had some sort of housing downpayment? Keeping in mind the insane acceleration of real estate prices in many markets he might find he'll never have a down payment now, but could have had one as early as 2012 if the four years of work done instead of school generated it.
Nothing says "pacifism" quite like having the biggest guns (or, well, muscles in case of high-school bullying) and seldom (ideally never) using them.
Yeah I used Audio MIDI Setup and it does enable some use-cases. It's still wont let you capture app's audio without 3rd-party dummy device driver and said drivers are buggy mess.

Even Discord offer an option to audio game capture and one of first steps to install is "Disable SIP".

The REPL is the shell. I even used the term "REPL" (and a couple of synonyms too) in my comment. So I do agree it's critical but that doesn't make the language irrelevant. Your point about how Python shells have had to create syntactic sugar for REPl usage is a good illustration of my point about how it matters a lot.

Also you can render images in quite a few terminal emulators already. Some shells (mine included) ship with hooks to autodetect which terminal emulator you're using and find the best method for rendering those images. eg https://github.com/lmorg/murex/blob/master/config/defaults/p...

There's definitely room for improvement in the whole TTY / shell / terminal emulator integration space though. But that's not going to happen without breaking support for existing CLI tools. Which basically means it's never going to happen given it wouldn't ever gain traction.
4x down is crazy, in 2008 when I was working at Google we had an option to reset the stock options (and their vesting period) when the stock price when down.

Progressive liberal American values are very strange even for liberal people in many places where I go (outside US). It will be interesting to see if Reid can adapt, but I think he’s smart enough to change direction.
I have one and it is good. The amount of use you get out of it really depends on where and how you plan to use it, but it absolutely is what it was intended to be: a portable device to play Steam games.
That describes how it is, wherein there is no place for the above question. QED\

But, what if you're not using your perceptory/sensory consciously and can't even read that answer in the way it's formulated. Then you still have a question, still think it's a question about a subject.

Where is the subject though? Is there a subject?
AIUI, Zygisk is a Google-approved variety of Magisk. The real issue with SafetyNet bypass is that it's inherently unreliable because Google could at any time require a locked bootloader running stock OEM ROM for passing SafetyNet, so any rooted device would be SOL.

I suspect that "withdrawn" normally means the UK government has paid them to cancel their asylum request and leave the country (after which, admittedly, they might try again) but I don't have the figures to know how common that is.
Reloadium – Advanced hot reloading for Python
Check out marcel (https://marceltheshell.org). Marcel is a shell that allows the use of Python functions, and pipes Python values between commands. E.g. remove the files/directories listed in victims.txt (one per line):

read victims.txt | args [f: rm -rf (f)]

Parens delimit Python expressions, so (f) just returns the value of f, one of the values read from victims.txt.

Marcel also provides a Python module so that Python can be used for scripting much more conveniently than in straight Python (i.e. without the marcel module). E.g., print the names of recently changed files in the current directory:

import os
from marcel.api import *

for file in (ls(os.getcwd(), file=True, recursive=True) |
select(lambda f: now() - f.mtime < days(1))):
print(file)
Complex, yes. But, don't forget that if we still made CRTs we'd desire them at extremely high quality. Much higher than they were when they were still manufactured. I don't think there'd be much difference in complexity.

Also, the much higher amount of materials, the bulk etc would make them unviable now.
IMO, you need money and status then more. (Maslow would agree.) ;)

Edit: Sorry, to be clear, I was punning on that misspelling. You want 'more than'. (Also, incidentally, 'fulfilled'.)
I also want to point out that inflation at 5% doesn't mean your income needs to go up 5%. Let's take $100k, say you pay 25% tax. That's $75k left. Let's say you have a mortgage, car payment and those are fixed. $35k. Let's say you save $10k. That leaves you with $30k. For your case, you only need a raise to have $1500 extra. So a new salary of $102k or 2% raise. I'm not trying to make case for employers, just want to point out that you might not be losing money at rate of 5% yearly by earning less. The real loss actually comes from your savings in the bank earning 0%.

So will you rather 2% raise and earn 5% on your savings or get 5% raise and earn 0% on your savings?

There is certainly a learning curve with jq that can put people off. The attraction is that the end result is a very small amount of code that does only one thing: parse a JSON file, rather than invoking an external script that might send many HTTP requests or launch a missile.

As the complexity of the input JSON grows or the complexity of your processing, it does makes sense to leave jq behind for a higher level language.

No I don't. In 2000/2001 I was 12 years old and in grade school.
I switched from Linux Mint desktop to an M1 Air last year.

Performance-wise, the M1 is very impressive, probably feels about 80% as fast as my 6 year old desktop (that sounds like snark, but it isn't). Meanwhile, the battery life is insane (I've never brought the charger anywhere but my desk, and will often use it for a week out and about).

I opted for the Magic Keyboard and Magic Touchpad, because I had a lot of trouble with everything else.

I could not get a mouse setup that worked (I'm strictly no acceleration, and macOS's acceleration was literally making my arm ache).

I switched because I stopped being a fulltime developer, my main machine was getting old (6 years), and macOS has good MS Office support.

Overall I'd say I'm about 70% efficient vs on Linux, a bit less so when in active development. The mobility makes up for it, and efficiency just isn't as important to my day-to-day for now.

Many of my gripes are listed elsewhere, but things like middle-click paste is something that is easy to write off but was actually a gigantic part of my process. Also, the fact that everything I want to tweak requires buying an app?

I had to pay for an app in order to properly emulate middle clicks on the touchpad! That's bonkers!

I'll leave this final tidbit though:

On Linux:

* Open Spotify

* Press play button on keyboard

* Spotify plays

On Mac:

* Open Spotify

* Press play button on keyboard

* Apple Music opens ??????
Greater US investment in strategic nuclear weapons defense is compatible with everything I said above. Whether thats a good idea depends on what equilibrium it drives the world military order to. If you propose adjustments to US policy, you can't pretend that the world response is fixed.

There are strong but not irrefutable arguments that strategic nuke defense spending by the US just induces the same by Russia/China, but puts us in a new nuke equilibrium with less stability than the current MAD situation. The relative stability of those two scenarios can not be figured out by you or me thinking in our armchairs. It depends sensitively on the technological and economic details.

No offense meant to parent commenter if I'm wrong, but looking at their comment history, does anyone else suspect this is a GPT-3 bot? I've been playing a lot in the GPT Playground this last week and this is very similar to what I get there.

I've actually never seen a long link from archive.today in the wild:

No offence but that sounds a little naive. Twitter isn't just the app and feed algorithm - I imagine there's more that 500 people needed to run the advertising side of the business alone (multiple countries, different tax regimes, payment processing, big customer relationship managers etc). Even the low level data centre, network engineering will number into the hundreds.

And they'll still have some kind of 'manual censorship organization' to enable them to operate legally in different countries, handling people posting illegal content and responding to law enforcement requests, bot detection, reports of harassment etc - that's going to be more than 500 people, for a company with the number of users Twitter has.
