The more capitals you have, the less you need to proportionately increase your budget to add another one.
This can happen on any filesystem under the circumstances of it becoming full as root. You are misinformed if you believe such isn't the case.

"Can't boot" is also vague. I've had data loss with XFS in 2002 or so (didn't have backups), couldn't mount filesystem anymore. Thanks to help on IRC from devs I got almost all data back. I've been able to get recover data from a dying Deathstar, too. And then there's the RAID5 write hole (can be mitigated), and RAID5 issues on btrfs (which are well known). For all we know you were using RAID5 shrug. Anyway, did you file a bug report, did you contact the devs?
Isn’t Cast iron heat conduction poor compared to copper or aluminum? I’d think a heavy copper clad pan would be better.

I think the point the author is missing is that 50 pounds a year vs 10 pounds a year is a negligible rounding error for most people’s annual expenses.

If the cost differences are negligible, people will go for convenience, marketing, and quality.

If things are easy and cheap to cure do you really need insurance against them?
I second this. The likelihood that I'll try the game out is drastically increased if I can enter a throw-away name and quickly start playing.

You could automatically assign a throw-away generic name, and then slap a 'try it right now' type button prominently on the home page. If the game is good, then I'd be willing to create an account.

This is awesome, but I do have a nitpick. Using left click to select as well as move feels really unnatural to somebody coming from other RTS games. I probably have over 5k hours in StarCraft 2 and WC3, and that's a lot of muscle memory to contend with.

I agree that "evil" is maybe a step too far, but "innocuous" is too short, imo. I don't think it's fair or reasonable to block sections of society — people without a credit card — from making purchases like this.

> I wouldn't try frying eggs in a cast iron, for instance (technically you can, but it requires an absurd amount of oil).

I use nothing but cast iron,s on a wood-burning stove. Frying eggs is no problem at all and it does not take "an absurd amount of oil", just a light coat of butter or margarine will do the trick assuming the pan is well-seasoned. I make pancakes for 4 people about once a week, also no problem, using a silicone brush to coat the pan in a light coat of molten butter/oil (I often mix these two) and they slide right out. Just clean the hot pan with water and wipe it clean/dry after use, it will work even better the next time you use it.

PTFE-covered pans are only a thing because people have been told fat is bad. The truth is fat is not bad, just like other foods are not bad per definition. What is bad is too much fat, just like too much carbohydrates or too much salt or... etcetera. Knowing that fat is actually a good ingredient there is no reason to use those flimsy disposable aluminium pans covered in PTFE.
I attended medical school for one year -- before realizing that there were literally a thousand other things I'd rather do than become a physician.

Now, about twelve years since leaving that profession/lifestyle, I'm very happy with my decision. Recently I met with one of my childhood heroes, who is now back in retirement as our local community park maintainer... and it was glad to see him "living his dream."

I don't think I would ever be so foolish again to stake so much capital/time on a single-track career. You cannot pay medical doctors enough for the sacrifices almost all of them have made. It has taken me years to not be drowning in student loan obligations! I personally am very fortunate with my living/rent situation; cannot imagine starting a medical training at present.

Depending on metrics, Canada, China, Latvia, Estonia, Switzerland and or Russia all make better use of rail than the US which makes the total number of rail lines actually look worse. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_rail_usag...

We don’t rank #1 by total freight, total fright miles, either of those per citizen, or percentage of fright carried by rail. We rank much worse in terms of passenger rail, or electrified rail.

Number of rail miles only really shows the size of the US not the utility of it’s rail network as we also have the largest road network. The relative lack of electrified rail demonstrates the issue, the US network is mostly single tracked which causes a lot of problems even with the total number of miles the utility of any given mile of track tends to be low.
It's a fallacy, but one that many people perceive as true in a steady state economy. Or rather there's enough greedy people that tend to work their way into positions of power in order to extract for themselves. Bribery at every bureaucratic level is the norm in most third world countries.
Some obvious ones are the "I can guess your number" tricks, where you do hard math on a secret number and tell the magician the result, who then does easy math to tell you your number.

Such a loop of operations containing only multiplication, addition, and subtraction would work on activity complex numbers. Square roots would not.

> You say nature isn't "humanoid" and then ascribe to it qualities like ruthlessness.

Definition of kind: "having or showing a friendly, generous, and considerate nature."

One can argue that non-humanoid processes or things are kind without violating basic precepts. For instance, a crane machine at an arcade might be viewed as kind or forgiving if its claws don't drop items so easily. Or the machine might be viewed as ruthless if its claws drop items all the time.

> You're just as biased and delusional as whoever you're criticizing.

Fucking rude, dude. My post wasn't criticism - it was an explanation..
> I don't see a path for the dollar to regain the credibility that it had before

On the contrary, March 2020 demonstrated that USD is the only game in town, everything collapsed except that. Then the USD "decided" to collapse via tons money printing and zero interest rate. Both policies enacted by the Fed in order to support recovery and its double mandate of stable prices and maximum employment. But there is a huuuge difference between collapsing due to market conditions and actively deciding to debase in order to support market functioning, prices and employment. This seems a subtle difference but it is not, it's the same difference that exists between genuinely losing a boxe match or going down on purpose for the good of the boxing business.

> I'm a citizen yes, but there is no equity

There is equity and also dividends, you just don't see it your portfolio because it's impossible to split the ownership of a bridge or an airport or a port.

> the equity would be worthless and we would be insolvent

A debt of 130% income is actually not even that serious, and besides the US can make that go to 10% or even 5% if it uses all its military might to anness and acquire land and GDP from other countries. The possibility of selling federal land is also priced in.

> It isn't PEOPLE who are doing the lending, for the most part these days

If you read balance sheets you actually see it's not just the Fed, also surveys say that the 60-40 equity-bonds portfolio is still the most popular for family offices, pension funds and even retail investors The 40% is mostly treasuries, so again it's not just the Fed

Health insurance companies love collecting insurance money and not paying out. Denying coverage, not covering procedures, not covering full treatments, not covering the full staff needed for a procedure, covering suboptimal but cheap treatments are some of the other tools in their toolset.

I suppose I've been getting lucky, but I've flown probably two dozen times (domestic in the US) with safety razor + blades in my carry-on luggage and it's never been noticed. The first time was a mistake, but after their scanners didn't notice I stopped caring. This has reinforced my belief that the TSA is mostly worthless.

I'm not sure how I'll pack my razor next time (the time I cut myself was the last time I traveled) but I'll have to change how I do things going forward. Maybe I'll put the whole thing into one of those plastic clamshell soap containers, although that would be a bit bulky.

One subtle problem I've noticed with shaving in the shower is whisker splinters. Twice (both times during the pandemic, after not shaving for two or three weeks) I've gotten a whisker embedded into the bottom of my foot and didn't figure out what the strange pain was until a few hours later when it worked itself in deep enough that I couldn't ignore it anymore. I think this only happens if I've let my hair grow too long, so now I avoid this.

> we should continue policies which abuse the young to the point they are too distressed to breed

Fertility rate: Finland 1.35, Austria 1.46, Switzerland 1.48, Norway 1.53, Kenya 3.4, Nigeria 5.3, Somalia 5.98: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_sovereign_states_and_d...

Quality of life rank: Finland 11/80, Austria 13/80, Switzerland 1/80, Norway 3/80, Kenya 79/80, Nigeria 80/80, Somalia unranked: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Where-to-be-born_Index

Quality of life and fertility seem to be very strongly anti-correlated. It does not seem like any sort of "policies which abuse the young" are needed to reduce population - education, gender equality, and some baseline material security suffice.

That the countries least desirable to live in have the highest fertility, and that there is a global ecological catastrophe slowly unfolding, are both well-documented common knowledge, that you became instantly ignorant of when they became inconvenient to your argument.

I would ask you to explain why you think "policies which abuse the young" are what people have in mind, or why they are needed, when obviously what has been shown to work and is popular is raising living standards. But I won't, because given the above, I already know the answer: it's much easier to argue for perpetual population growth if you can pretend the only alternative is "abuse the young to the point they are too distressed to breed".
I find video game UIs to be inspiring and different because they must serve player engagement, discovery, and fun -- none of which are typically goals of business apps.

Google avoids losing money by having a large Chrome user base. It's the same as making money. They have to write checks to Firefox and Apple to maintain access to those users, but not with Chrome.

There shouldn't need to be such a large tradeoff between efficiency and core count, and in the world of ARM CPUs it's not. It's entirely possible to pack 4+ reasonably performant cores into a 6W TDP, and likely at non-extravagant prices.

Yes, there is. Personal fulfilment. Living up to your own standards.

Why do you want to consume because everyone else is doing so? Is the only reason you're willing to consider doing otherwise to save the world? Is life worse without the disposable products?

I'm not particular about keeping a specific look so don't shave every day. Some days I'm clean shaven, other days with shadow+ and sometimes with more.

The most convenient thing was a Gillette Styler that would last for I can't count how many months, but was ultimately disposable. I later found a MINISO brand that was less than half the cost that was rechargeable with only minimal paper packaging. Not as close but good enough. Ultimately it's disposable too but I'm still on my first one.

Yes, you need to write a query; and it's also not at all that obvious how to write a query. Let's say you want to list all repos belonging to a user or organisation, a fairly simple and common operation. I found [1] in about 30 seconds. I've been trying to do the same with GraphQL for five minutes now using the docs and GraphQL Explorer, and thus far haven't managed to get the same result.

I worked a bit with GraphQL in the past, but never all that much. Now, I'm sure I could figure it out of I sit down, read the basics of GraphQL, familiarize myself with GitHub's GraphQL schema, etc. But ... it's all a lot of effort and complex vs. the REST API; even with a solid foundation in GraphQL there's still lots more parts.

GraphQL is kind of like giving people a schema to an SQL database and telling them that's an "API"; it kind of is, but also isn't really. There's a reason almost all applications have some sort of database layer (API!) to interact with the database, rather than just writing queries on the fly whenever needed.

I prefer to think of it as what politics and society gained.

It was pretty clear that most politicians, let alone leaders, didn't know what "exponential" meant over the pandemic.

At a time where technological advance has vastly outpaced politics (Joe Biden was around 65 when the first iphone came out) I think it's quite remarkable to have a Maths-CS major heading up a (small) nation.
> many of the excess deaths were associated with central planning.

This is pretty obviously bad logic, you seem to be removing agency from Trump/Biden/Cuomo/Fauci. All of them in varying degrees made terrible decisions, waited too long to bother reacting, etc., and these were things the average person could easily guess would happen while good ideas were often left delayed or unexecuted.

Your rhetoric is nothing more than an attack on the concept of planning at all, which many countries did better just by having half a plan and going through with at least half the plan.

Planning is not a supernatural force that compelled our leaders to act poorly. They had agency and chose poorly.
My observation is that this used to be much easier because someone was usually home, typically a wife who did not work. Now everything is planned to the last minute because everyone is focused first on working, with family and friends getting the leftover time.
