It doesn't need to be as valuable to still be net positive though, because now it doesn't take human time, just computer time.

Imagine for an ML product, making an accuracy report. If it's slow and required lots of human time, you might do it once a quarter for releases to important customers. If it's cheap and quick then you can run it on every CI run to check for regressions before merging code. Sure, you run it maybe 1000x more and don't get 1000x the value.

But, critically, the value is not the cost savings of not having to run it manually per quarter, the value is the more stable product and avoiding spending time bisecting a quarter of engineering work to figure out where bugs were introduced. And this was enabled by automating.
Is this because you have a time-locked transaction to move the funds from the P2MS to a P2PKH? How does that work when it's "re-keyed"? Wouldn't each re-key move to a new P2MS and have a transaction fee associated with it as well as have a second transaction for the HTLC transaction?
Only the CPU part, GPU is much harder.
One developer’s journey bringing Dependabot to GitHub Enterprise Server
Is this "doubling" simply in terms of production dollars? If our factories are more productive, that's great, but I don't think it addresses my point, which is more about diversity and capability versus production numbers. Even you point out that manufacturing production has not grown with the rest of the economy. And I didn't mean to imply the U.S. has no manufacturing.
You do have the power. You can compile from source to any version you want. The caveat is that it breaks the primary reason most people use distributions—to get a set of packages that are consistent with each other.
I had someone in a Verizon uniform bang on my door after nightfall, then one of my neighbors refuse to usher him out of the building as one of their customers used their Verizon supplied telephone connection to threaten to kill me.

(I filed a police report, but folks don't seem to take it seriously.)

I'm thankful that aside from that, the number of spammy people in or around my home has Markedly decreased lately, but not as much as I'd like.

Edit: They might not have been Canadian, so edited "non-US".

If they're here, authorized, it shouldn't matter where they're from if there is not a language barrier.

Why Magdeburg? I have a really hard time to find an argument that puts the city in an advantageous position relative to other competitor places (like Dresden, Munich agglomeration, Rhein/Main area, Hamburg agglomeration).
Yes and no.

You can spend a fortune on developing an SEO strategy and trying to game your way to the top of specific results. But if you are patient, build your website with some basic good practices, and write regularly on topics people care about - you can still build pretty okay traffic.
BASIC languages seem to be having a bit of a renaissance year. There have been about (that I know of) 2 or 3 new BASIC languages introduced just this year alone.

I absolutely love the idea of a modern web based BASIC as I can work on the road from anywhere!

I've added a room for this to my BASIC oriented discord, hopefully this doesn't seem spammy it's the only one around on the subject of BASIC in general, as far as I'm aware: https://discord.gg/HQaDgJvbbJ
The original intention of patent system was to encourage open publication of inventions. It even still works that way for some verticals. The issue is that it also produced a system that it is profitable to game and thus there are patent attorneys who get by by writing the patent in as vague terms as is possible to pass by patent reviewers, and in these kind of adversarial situations it is quite obvious that the private sector will win over the government bureaucrats.
Yes, but that tolerance is for seconds of exposition, not days.
Mapping the 3D Lyα Forest Large-Scale Structure in Real and Redshift Space
Those are exactly the kinds of systems I had to deal with constantly breaking things. That said, I always made friends with SRE (was one for a while) because they own the memes of production.
> On the other hand if you compare USB 1.0 to 1.1 it is quite obvious that real implementation experience and throwing out artifacts of the design by committee was quite important for the success.

This sounds like it has some interesting history there; do you have any recommended sources to read about the transition between USB 1.0 and 1.1?
While its an interesting project, aren’t we going towards a cashless society? I don’t know how its in the US, but in countries like in Sweden there are almost no places where you can pay with cash.
I just hope they can figure out how to suspend it in worthless bits of gold.
The Power of the XDG Base Directory Specification (2019)
It doesn't have to be equivalent. Just being comparable from a user experience and business case perspective would be enough.

The uh, entire economy of the world depends on some level that people are going to need to buy more shit.
This means for example that if you created a repo as an admin (answering Yes to the UAC prompt), you can only run git on it as an admin, or you will get the "unsafe repository" error for all actions. And vice versa.

This also created a bug in Visual Studio:

I'm really interested in how Taiwan would destroy its fabs. Like boots-on-the-ground mechanics of how this would work. C4 charges implanted in server rooms and the entire fab? Or a special task force steps in and wires the whole building with explosives? Air strike after evacuating the Fab? Close by Ground-to-ground artillery/guided missiles? Digital keys that disable all equipment and wipe out all data/IP? I'd love to be a fly on the wall in these military rooms if something like this is going on. Even better to be part of the team in charge of handling this scenario. That kind of sounds like a whole lot of fun.
> You do have the power. You can compile from source to any version you want.

Yeah, that's all that really needs to be said about that. And people wonder why the Year of the Linux Desktop never arrived.
In the US, I've been buying more eggs lately, because free range eggs haven't gone up in price nearly as much as unmarked (i.e. probably caged) eggs. Now that the difference in price is small enough, I'm using them more... though part of that is also from cutting back on meat as well, which have the same trend of higher end cuts not changing but cheap cuts / ground meat rising quite a bit.
Ignore the system I parts about priming though, they have had trouble replicating those studies.
We will resume the serialization of Berserk
Are those final two steps (next, final) pure speculation on your part? I'd be surprised if Windows threw out NT and moved to Linux kernel, and yet at the same time, it sounds like a great idea IMO (WSL2 + Docker is already a great experience for software development).
>Western Europe is in real trouble after years of policy push for "Services Based" economies

I'm not sure where this narrative comes from because Western Europe is still industrialized, in particular compared to the US[1].

the industrial belt roughly from the UK midlands through northern France, Benelux, Switzerland, the Rhine-Ruhr area and South West Germany, Northern Italy and to some extent Spain is one of the most productive industrial regions in the world. [2]

It was said by Max Planck (well, not this exact quote, but the spirit is entirely there), not exactly a non-scientist commenting on an internet forum.

Also, the controversy over the amyloid hypothesis is real. Here [0] is a paper showing arguments for and against with 268 citations. Here [1] is a more journalistic article in Nature. While this is still up in the air, it's nby no means a "conspiracy theory" to suggest that it's possibly a 25-year wild goose chase, or close to it. I would love to be wrong about this, but I suppose time will tell.

Well, GSNP is the most heavily visited National Park in the US, so that's mostly it. There's really nothing special about this place in particular though. The whole area is lit up right now.
Gitlab has all those non-git features, and then some. Migrating to it from Github might not be easy, but it's definitely worth it IMO to invest in the product that gives you more options, instead of getting locked in to something like Github.
Okami | Ookami (available on PC too) and many, MANY japanese games.
Bottles is a wine UI and encapsulation layer, similar to the separate previously existing project Bottles, which is is a wine UI and encapsulation layer.

This new Bottles project is appealing to the community to change their behaviour as they are doing something the new Bottles finds undesirable.
For the past decade and a half, possibly longer, Japanese ATMs have replaced their physical keypads with digital ones where the numbers are randomly placed. Imagine my surprised when the first times I tried to enter my PIN, it kept failing until I took a good close look at the numbers.
Oh, that’s silly, for a practical context, which flying a spaceship would be. Practically, it would be relative to the nearest large body/galaxy/pair, and depend on context, which would almost always be understood. For example, if you’re observing a planet, full stop would be relative to that planet.
Alternately, it's supply and demand.
hey, I'm the person embarking on the project, thanks for checking it out!

one of the big reasons I started this project is that I've really been wanting to work on a project that deals with bootloader and kernel level code, and doing Windows bringup on the M1 seemed like a really interesting thing to tackle.

While initial progress might be slow, it is indeed happening, I'm planning to post an update tonight actually, but I realize you're busy so feel free to check the website whenever you have a free moment. (It's basic I know i'm not a web person lol)
> If EU legislation were universal, that would preclude any future where...

Your crystal ball seems broken. You could have said the exact same thing about micro-usb for phone chargers, yet somehow we ended up in the present.

Hint: Your supposed critical flaw is incredibly obvious. So either everyone but you is an idiot or just maybe the people making laws have thought of that too...
How is it a benefit? I somehow doubt that with the supply chains interrupted, the new owners will be anywhere as efficient at their business as their predecessors.
Cheap place to build, cheap place to live, cheap labour, pretty good infrastructure. All of the cities you mentioned are very expensive to built in, but also to live in.
Very cool. I have a ton of old qbasic/freebasic projects that would be fun to give them life again on the web.

That there were fireflies all over the brightly lit urban area, confused and unable to mate, is not inconsistent with the notion that man-made lights are hurting fireflies.
Honestly I think we need different ports. My laptop can already draw more power than the charger that came with it can provide, it's insulting for it to pretend it is charging when I plug a 5w a to c charger into it.

Enforcing USB pd as a standard would be another acceptable one.
The core aspect of socialism is the means of production and the fruits of labor [and exchange of all this] in the hands of the people. Only the distribution part are what any safety net programs are about. I assume socialist policies means govt programs.

The people you’re referring to would not be saying companies are taking advantage of the zeitgeist and raking in bigger profits knowing inflation talks will take all the blame or straw manning like your 2022 line. Gas prices rising so much providing incredible profits is an obvious example of this.

No one in the White House or Senate are socialists. Bernie is like the Nordic model: capitalism + large safety nets + govt programs. The senate has been in republican control or with the useless Dem leaning current situation with too many conservative Dems. Trump’s regime did some of the biggest “socialist policies” spending. It is wild to assert the right pass socialist policies.
Windows 11 version 22H2 enters Release Preview channel as public release nears
Last time I read about Bottles, they refered to a kind of Wine prefix. A dir or package that'd run your Windows program.
At first I thought the headline was hyperbole, but after reading the OP, I think it's accurate. If the cities near the Great Salt Lake don't do something soon, the air they breathe will be laden with poisonous arsenic in the not too distant future.
When I see this I pretty much read it as:

> This software is not mature yet. Beta testers are highly welcomed, but neither users nor developers get value from people running a beta release that is over a year old.

Which is a perfectly reasonable position for a software project to be in. And if they want to continue to treat their project as Beta software indefinitely that's fine too, but I will treat it as such.
One can hope that RISC-V in the future will not follow ARM's past mistakes.
If we saw increased off-shoring to Colombia would it possibly finally result in a continuous Freight rail line through Central America? It's always struck me as exceedingly odd that Panama is the terminus for all land-borne transportation.
I think the overlap of folks who want to self host and folks who don't already use a preferred Linux distro or Windows is quite small.
Uvalde is currently at the top of that list and the power problems from last winter. And while I know it's largely dependent on one's political leaning, the Texas laws against books, abortion, immorality (e.g. sex toys), and LBGT issues, among others, don't speak "most free" to me.

I'm sure someone will counter with "but in California..." and the objections will all be true, which is why I stand by my original opinion: neither one is obviously better run than the other.
> I mean, why, say, develop the theory of evolution? At the time that was irrelevant to "everyday problems".

"Charles Darwin discussed how selective breeding had been successful in producing change over time in his 1859 book, On the Origin of Species. Its first chapter discusses selective breeding and domestication of such animals as pigeons, cats, cattle, and dogs." (Wikipedia)

Darwin's theory of evolution was literally developed to explain the most significant food growing technique since irrigation. Seems very practical to the everyday problem of not starving.
I've had a few of these. Until years later when I stumbled upon them again and totally forgot how they were meant to be decoded.
I've never even read a lick of Berserk, nor have I seen the anime.

Still, I think I can understand the tragedy that befalls a community when the author passes away before the story is complete.

I cannot read the original Japanese, but the English Translation (appearing halfway down the page), especially of Kouji Mori (the new lead writer of Berserk) seems very heartfelt to me. I wish them luck, to finish the story for the fanbase.

I'm sure that other fanbases (Wheel of Time) have been through similar events, where the author's untimely passing forces someone else to finish the story on their behalf. Its always a challenge but hopefully what they deliver here will be worthwhile.
Sure, if the cost of automating here is < the current cost of rework and investigation, you win. And dev time is expensive, so that sort of thing is usually an easy call.

Yeah, it doesn't need to continue to increase in value linearly with repeated runs, it's the summed value that matters.

The "cost" is fuzzy too, often - e.g. time and budget spent on reliability-focused engineers or active troubleshooting rarely drops to 0 if you don't automate anything. It might just make it more expensive to react to incidents!

Maybe turn it away from a "gate" question - "should this thing be automated" - and into a prioritization one - "we could automate so many things, which ones should we do first?"
Everything about JPEG XL sounds great, except that it takes about 34 times longer to encode an image compared to PNG.

Edit: Apparently there's an experimental faster version:

I too do want to add tags or other text inside my pictures, or bookmark or additional stuff inside (and outside but attached to) my pdfs. ID3v2 would be so nice.
Given the recent news I think that there is no correlation. Russia and the EU are giving each other the finger and no amount of mutual trade changed Russia's long standing attitude of taking all they can get (of course all global powers do that.) Actually, no trade at all between Russia and the EU would have made that area of the world more stable: the EU won't have to scramble to replace energy providers and no sanction could harm Russia. There would still be a war but nothing else.
No, the tooth with the power loses its gold or silver. It’s not dirty, it’s an electrical exchange of atoms. A design problem.
.io Games and the Rise of Fake Multiplayer (2020)
This will finally make me seriously consider moving back to iPhones. I'm simply not willing to give up being able to charge my Android phone, M1 laptop, headphones, vape, shaver, oculus, etc with the same cable. I travel with 1 cable. It's life changing.
I'm Algerian. Note that if you want to go to certain places in Algeria, you have to be escorted by the police.
"not as fast as it can go" is selling it short. I have an old 5w usb charger that I found in my drawer and plugged an A to C charger from it into my 2016 MacBook Pro, and it "worked" by some definition of worked - the laptop thinks it's charging, however it's 19x below what the charger that came with the device outputs, so it's clearly not fit for purpose.
On the one hand, I can see how this could be useful to mitigate vulnerabilities from malicious USB charge stations. (See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Juice_jacking)

On the other hand, what happens if you need to connect an "unapproved" keyboard for the first time, and your hardware keyboard is malfunctioning?
I'd take an art class. There's nothing like having a talented teacher (if you can find one) and lots of people around you interested in and working with you towards the same goal.

It's hard for most people to stay motivated without that.. and getting good at art just isn't something you can achieve over the weekend. It's for long distance runners, not sprinters.

Apart from that, draw every day. Quantity beats quality, and ultimately results in quality. Overcoming self-criticism and excuses not to just create more art is half of what being an artist is all about.
I was surprised to discover that Janet tuples and records (the immutable array and hashmap you've mentioned) aren't the Clojure-style immutable which is designed for cheap updates, but the more usual kind of immutable where if you want a copy with changed data, you have to make a copy with changed data.

Consumers and businesses called the bluff by simply waiting to buy everything from doorknobs to drywall to lumber to cars. For me I’ll be waiting until timber businesses start firing people before I buy another board foot. I’m not running a charity here and I want to see a little blood pooling under these businesses for their haughtiness.
> It very much matters if the former #1 CO2 producer slows down.

That's where I'm quite skeptical. I'm very doubtful that overall fossil fuel extraction will decrease. This is a worldwide problem. The climate is affected by the global level of fossil fuel use, not by the amount released by individual countries. The extraction rate is still at or near record highs (worldwide). Will it slow down? Maybe? However, it seems unlikely, given the political and economic cost necessary to actually make a real dent. Governments just aren't taking the problem as seriously as they should.
The WWW is looking like kind of a mixed bag nowadays.
I love the flask documentation personally. I've always found it well laid out, with relevant examples for my use cases. Also EVE has the best video game rest api and documentation I've ever used.
I don't fundamentally disagree with any of the points you're making. I just think they are less important than the one I am making, so much so that I'm willing to risk "insulting a lot of people" as you say.

Yes, I'm being "loud and mean." I agree that normally, people shouldn't be loud and mean. But I also believe that sometimes it's approrpriate.

Right now, I'm reminded of when people here got panicky because youtube-dl was possibly being taken off of Github. I am not at all exaggerating when I say that the bulk of the commenters strongly appeared to have forgotten that you can just download the code yourself, perhaps host it somewhere else.

Yes, I'm sensing a slow descent into what an old-timer like me, who's used to "computers that you fully control, full stop" into what I can reasonably call stupidity.
But more importantly - can we embed ID3v2 inside ID3v2?

> Innovation, particularly disruptive and / or breakthrough innovation, does not happen by committee, no matter how many times over history people tried deluding themselves into thinking that it does.

You have no evidence to back this up. There's been throughout history many innovative standards that have gone through committee work, including a ton of network protocols.
How well does JPEG XL deal with color spaces? I don't know much about them, but understand that not all color spaces are create equal, and data gets lost in conversions.

“ Microsoft Azure Application Gateway was no longer connecting to servers using a Let's Encrypt certificate”

Why would you expect TLS to work correctly on a HTTP load balancer that can’t do HTTP properly either?

Microsoft App Gateway is incompatible with Microsoft’s own SharePoint server for example because it doesn’t send a user agent header in the health monitor probes, which about 50% of all web apps require. Similarly it can’t send authentication headers either so it can’t monitor web apps that enforce security.

It’s a security product incompatible with security and encryption.

Let that sink in and then look at what you’re paying for this on your next monthly bill.
No, the article noted that iOS devices have been doing something similar since iOS 12.
