I don't think so? The only major warships the Navy operates are carriers (Nimitz, Ford), amphibious assault ships (Wasp, America), cruisers (Ticonderoga, the last of which was commissioned in 1994), and destroyers (Arleigh Burke, forthcoming DDGX). Ignoring the LCSs as a complete cluster#_$&.

I think many orgs and companies will follow this route into the Fediverse, hosting only a few official accounts under their own domain.

Having EU joining in such a confident way, not only dipping their toe by signing up an account on someone else's server, helps other bigger orgs doing the same.

Why sign up to a service controlled by a third-party (like Twitter, Facebook or another Mastodon server), when you can own and control your own communication platform?

The windows feature is not buggy, the process that created the file potentially is as the creating process chooses the sharing mode. Except for executable images (EXE/DLL): they're always locked on the filesystem as long as any running program is referencing the image. That's by design: designers didn't want "invisibly" used space on disk.

For what happens when you do that on Linux: the file entry gets deleted, but disk space doesn't get deallocated until the last program using the file has exited. If you replace the file, the program will still be referencing the old file (now unreferencable by any name/path, except possibly through /proc/../fd).

"now 24 and living in Phoenix, graduated from high school, went to college and became a medical assistant.

"Then two years ago, the state served him with papers demanding child support. That's how he found out he had a then-6-year-old daughter."

24-2-6-9months seems to indicate he was at least 15 when the relevant sex happened and then it would have been legally consented. Also he wants to take up fatherhood(and he never pressed charges against her), so this case is not as simple as you stated.

Otherwise it is quite ridiculous and outrageous, that there are really 2 standards when it comes to sex with minors and the consequences.

I recently saw SQLite used (and written to) in a Docker container, with the database file on a mounted volume.

That made me nervous!

I don't know enough about how Docker implements volumes under the hood to know how likely (or not) it is to break filesystem behavior that SQLite depends on for its transactional guarantees.

Perhaps someone here does?

The part that really stuck out to me was from one of the people he had duped, saying that if Clark had told her the sky was green she would have believed him. There are definitely people in the world who seem able to cast an almost hypnotic spell over people like that, but seemingly only in person. This seems to be the case with both Bill Clinton and Donald Trump. Examples about in business too, including (especially?) tech. Having worked at Facebook, I felt that Mark Zuckerberg also has this quality.

I don't think it's magic. I don't think it's pheromones. If I had to guess I'd say that it's something about learning - consciously or otherwise - to fool the heuristics that most of us use to distinguish lies from truth. Things like voice, facial expression, body language. Whatever it is, it seems quite real. Nick Clark was somehow able to fool a great many people, some of them quite savvy, and there are many examples like his.

For a group that's supposed to be quivering in oppressed silence, crushed under the bootheel of cacel culture and wokism, they seem very vocal to me.
> In statistics, the mean and median are both averages, but are technically quite different. The mean is the sum of all items divided by the number of them, while the median is the middle item in the sorted list.

There was an article posted here, one or two years ago, that explained how mean and median are very similar, as they are the values that minimize residuals or the squared of residuals.

I'm sorry I can't find it right now, I hope some other user knows which article I'm talking about and can link it down here, because it is, in my opinion, an excelent read.
I tend to agree with the parent post about the extreme rigidness though causing issues. My wife is an Occupational Therapist and in some states she can supervise showering and some states only nurses can. Some states she can initiate cases and some states she can't.

There are too many micro-specialties and not enough crossover. Imagine if once you were a frontend dev you would have to go back to school for 2 years full time to be legally allowed to do ui design of a button even though there is a lot of crossover and knowledge sharing between roles.

This definitely causes shortages and issues when the demand naturally rises and falls for various Healthcare disciplines.

I'm not saying formal education isn't important but there could be a much more fluid crossover between various allied health disciplines than their is currently.

Maybe more transition programs or seeing individual billing codes for Medicare attached to education modules
I'm not part of this group myself, but I've seen this quite a lot as people get older. My anecdotal evidence is that it's less about becoming a "believer" in the supernatural, and more about realizing that many of the traditions and practices can be useful for personal happiness, mental health, and sense of belonging, regardless of the science behind them. Praying is not so different from e.g. meditation or yoga, just a different type of practice.
You call the “free speech people” insufferable and say they have no idea what they’re talking about, yet say I’m the one being rude referring to offended people crying to Twitter to ban people because they can’t just ignore (as you suggested you’d do) the tweet they didn’t like?
You can implement futures by just running each future as a thread, but it doesn't really give you much. It's a lot more complex to write a preemptive thread scheduler + delegating future scheduler than to just write a future scheduler in the first place.

Especially when that future scheduler already exists and works, and the preemptive one is a multi-year research project away.
At that point you need to put your heat exchanger pipes underground, which is more annoying than air-based AC but not insurmountable. The temperature 20 feet underground will be about 50 F year-round. Of course, if a city of millions tried to do this all at once I have no idea how the local ground temperature would react.

If you start every day with 'what's our priority for today' - that indicates a lack of planning, a word not mentioned in this article. Running around like a chicken sans head is another way to describe this kind of leadership. Now if you have a 'priority meeting' once a week (at most, once a month might really be better) in which tasks are decided on and workloads are passed out, then people will be able to concentrate on those tasks. Maybe have a once-a-week sit-down meeting with individuals to monitor progress, offer encouragement, solve problems that might be holding things up, etc.

I sometimes wonder if smartphone culture is at least partially to blame for a tendency towards an inability to plan things in advance. Smartphones make it easy for people to constantly change their schedules, make last-minute arrangements, and they also promote the immediate gratification mentality.
30c isn’t a point of reference for hot temperature.

Why courier companies deliberately misroute packages
> daring to disagree with a policy decision

That's not exactly what happened. It's one thing to "dare to disagree". It's another to do so in a public way that mocked and belittled her (a meme on Twitter) and that predictably lead to threats and copious and gratuitous misogyny directed at her. So what was Musk's intent here? Because he knew or should have known that would be the result of his actions. Isn't the directed use of mobs to harass and discredit people precisely the thing he bought Twitter to combat?
Just out of curiosity what is the domain where this performance jump is desirable but ACID isn't? This is pushing it into like, low single digit millisecond or sub-millisecond level right? Is sql even the right choice for that need?
Communities can wall themselves off and be very selective in who they let in. That's not the problem.

Block-prevents-replies allows bad actors to unilaterally silence opposition so that nobody else can see what the opposition's arguments are. *In a community that appears to be public.*

daenz's system is interesting (anyone can ban anyone, but to ban them you must reply to the comment you're banning them for, and others can ban you in return), and it might converge to stability, but each new troll will disrupt some discussions until they lose interest in being repeatedly counter-banned.

I think any system to exclude bad actors and prevent brigading needs to be designed some other way, so that silencing dissenters requires some consensus and can't be done unilaterally or by a small cabal.
Loom looks like it’s nicely solved the function coloring problem. This plus Graal makes me excited to pick up Clojure again.
I don't quite follow your argument.

Saying "Linux cannot handle 5M connections with one thread per connection" isn't a reasonable statement because no operating system can do that, they can't even get close. The resource usage of a kernel thread is defined by pretty fundamental limits in operating system architecture, namely, that the kernel doesn't know anything about the software using the thread. Any general purpose kernel will be unable to provision userspace with that many threads without consuming infeasible quantities of RAM.

The reason JVM virtual threads can do this is because the JVM has deep control and understanding of the stack and the heap (it compiled all the code). The reason Loom scalability gets worse if you call into native code is that then you're back to not controlling the stack.

Getting to 10M is therefore very much a question for the JVM as well as the operating system. It'll be heavily affected by GC performance with huge heaps, which luckily modern G1 excels at, it'll be affected by the performance of the JVM's userspace schedulers (ForkJoinPool etc), it'll be affected by the JVM's internal book-keeping logic and many other things. It stresses every level of the stack.
One thing I always wanted to see was a close expander cycle areospike. The reason is that expander cycles are heat limited. Areospikes biggest negative is that they require more cooling but if you are heat limited that is an advantage.

You could make the highest possible thrust expander cycle and it would be high efficiency upper stage for early staging as you don't lose efficiency by staging early.

Another thing that jumps out at me is that its really sad development on the F-1 and J-2 stopped. The mentioned J-2S never flew. The US had this amazing technology stack, F-1 + variants, J-2 + variants and Apollo stack.

Instead of keeping around a Saturn 1B type vehicle with the Apollo on top they threw literally all of that stuff in the trash and started new with Shuttle.

But non of that new Shuttle stuff is better when thinking about it end to end. Because of Shuttle SkyLab could not be saved and because of Shuttle SkyLab 2 wasn't launched.

The US with the Apollo stack and incremental updates could have dominated in space.

A complete and utter mismanagement of the investment that was made during Appollo.

I've found that AWS IAM is amazing compared to Azure AD. With AWS you can do per-workload account vending and grant account owners full "AdministratorAccess", because IAM resources are tied to the account. In Azure it's batshit crazy: almost all IAM resources - roles, groups, principals etc - are tied to the overarching AD tenant and not to the AWS Account equivilent, a subscription. In short this means that I, the owner of a subscription (broad powers), cannot add a new IAM role or associate it with a resource for user assignment. It gets worse... Azure AD limits are tenant wide leading to big orgs refusing to add IAM primatives because they might hit a service limit. And the lack of ABAC makes KeyVault almost unusable compared to AWS Secrets Manager. But hey, at least I have system assigned managed identities for SQL logins, that was kinda cool until AWS introduced IAM auth for RDS.

This is what I was thinking of in the case of India :)

Edit: wanted to add, application of this technology might require government level systems thinking.

With an air conditioner, that heat being moved is being pushed to your neighbor, passive cooling technology rejects much of the heat out of the earth.

I.e., AC contributes to the urban heat island effect, the situation snowballs and makes everyone’s AC have to run even harder.

Passive cooling films are a mitigation for the urban heat island effect.
You can smother a fuel fire, a lithium ion battery fire will continue without oxygen.

With large batteries, once they heat up to the point where they are burning it's tough to cool them back down enough to extinguish the fire.
They are right, but I think the message may be coming from the wrong person here. To be fair I don't know this person's history nor care to look at the moment. A VC prioritizes writing checks and supporting their picks as some sort of coaching role.

If this article came from a founder on their experiences with prioritization, I think it would feel more genuine and insightful of what you might be able to take away from it.

I work as a big tech PM and prioritization is my job. I've explored hundreds of ways to do it. Found some good ones, found some bad ones. What I can say is that experience is the only way you become accustomed to the characteristics the author is mentioning with regards to people who are good at prioritization.

The most effective tool I've found? The 80/20 rule or known as Pareto's Principle. That has applied to every single project, program, and initiative I've been apart of to large degrees of success. It's the most flexible and can apply everywhere.

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

Another interesting one depending where you work is the 1% rule. This helps you demonstrate whether certain things benefit everyone, or just a small but loud few.

I think it started to lean left when the conservatives started to become anti science.
I agree, I did not actually finish the book. The setup was interesting but it was all a bit too moralistic and righteous for my taste. Neal Stephenson's Termination Shock is much more fun in that respect.

The terrorism aspect is interesting though. He's not the only one that is predicting conflict as a direct result of global warming. Mass population displacements due to things like wet bulb heat events, droughts, the middle east routinely hitting temperature of over 50/60 degrees Celcius, etc. have the potential to get really ugly.

> Do I need to say anything more?

No. Let me re-iterate what I mean.

Systems without guardrails are explicit, transparent and flexible. It's easy to understand how they behave. It might be a little harder to get things right, but when you get it right, there's nothing to second guess.

Systems without guardrails are low in overhead. It's possible to get raw performance.

Yes, I love these systems. I might spend a little more time and need a little more concentration when I develop stuff on these systems, but when it runs, it runs for good.

Trying to make systems foolproof by limiting them is not good. If that's good, we should all love iOS, right?

I mean, what's the alternative? Are you suggesting legally forcing someone to undergo a medical procedure? Or in the case of the man wanting to keep the baby, are you suggesting doctors don't perform the procedure without the consent of both parents? Both scenarios sound completely untenable to me.

What if we agree it's ultimately the choice of whoever has a baby growing inside them regardless of their sex?
I am OP!

Firstly, I'm not trying to elicit sympathy for anyone. I was pointing out an issue I personally found interesting.

Secondly, who is my "team"? Men? The child free? Women? People in the UK?

Thirdly, I think it is an issue. If you think the decline in the number of people procreating is an important issue, then you should approach it honestly. The data suggests it is the fault (for want of a better term) of women and men. That means only one side of the issue is being examined. And I think that's curious.

I'm still unclear on which virtue I am supposedly signalling. And even more unclear on why you'd choose to insult my virtue rather than my many vices.

As the discussion of equity is always tied to congestion pricing, here is a study from RAND titled Equity and Congestion Pricing [pdf]. The Summary at the beginning covers most of the findings.

https://www.rand.org/content/dam/rand/pubs/technical_reports...

> First, depending on how congestion pricing is implemented, it can be either regressive or progressive. This depends in large part on how toll revenues are used. For instance, if regions spend revenues in ways that benefit low-income individuals, congestion pricing is more likely to be progressive. However, if regions use revenues in a way that benefits all individuals equally, congestion pricing may be, overall, regressive. This is the strongest finding in the economic literature.

> Second, even when low-income and other transportation-disadvantaged groups benefit as a whole from congestion pricing, it is very likely that some individuals will still be worse off.

> Third, for all forms of congestion pricing (but more for some than for others), the distri- bution of residents and job opportunities (not to mention shopping, schools, places of worship, and other important destinations) has a large impact on the equity implications.

> Fourth, high-occupancy toll (HOT) lanes, the most common form of congestion pricing in the United States, tend to raise fewer equity concerns among motorists, since they provide drivers with an additional choice of using a set of priced lanes while allowing them to continue using parallel, free lanes if they prefer.

> Fifth, while congestion pricing has been shown to reduce emissions in general, there is scant evidence showing that congestion pricing can specifically reduce negative environmental consequences for neighborhoods disproportionately affected by emissions.

> Given the risk of negative impacts to low-income and other groups under congestion pric- ing, we looked at suggested ways to diminish these impacts. Two mechanisms are in common use: (1) revenue redistribution and (2) discounts and exemptions.
“It wasn’t a collapse, technology / economy stagnated or reduced for 600-1200 years”
