There are two main things I want from the wm on my workstation: plainness and stability.

I want plainness because the wm is just framing my applications, not the main atteaction.

I want stability because my workstation should not be rearranged without my consent or request.

After a long time looking, I'm happy for a while now.

IMO, other than the small additions of being able to toggle "on top" and virtual desktops, Windows 95 pretty much did it as far as a functional, efficient, and subtly stylish UI. Mac 8 is not bad either, but didn't have the keyboard accessibility.
You can look at the Forrester and Gartner of this world, but for a less subjective and more objective metric you can look at the statistics related to the CMS used by high traffic website [0]. I won't even say Wix, Squarespace, Joomla (is this still a thing?) or Shopify are in the same category of AEM, they missed a lot of the qualification criteria to be considered an enterprise level CMS.

You’re asking the same question, but in a leading way. I’m not even sure what you’re trying to imply here.

>To answer your own question for the sake of contrast, it's not strange that provincials would know about the events in NYC. It is a large, important city.

NYC is the financial capital of the US so of course important news out of NYC may be important elsewhere. However, a random act of subway violence is not important national news. Given the volume of subway riders I would argue that it is not even important local news.
I feel your pain.

And your pain is distributed systems. Not just of source control, but bug tracking. And general process-manager-y stuff.
The majority of crypto "investors" aren't crypto enthusiasts. They're make-me-rich-quick investment enthusiasts.
Although it's the common explanation that young people just don't do that anymore. I think it's one of the symptoms of the fact that younger generations just don't have the disposable cash anymore to go out.
It looks like this announcement was a couple of years ago and some more concrete info is now available e.g. https://ww2.arb.ca.gov/resources/fact-sheets/advanced-clean-...

It actually seems quite weak; a slow requirement for manufacturers to start shipping zero emission trucks, and a requirement for fleet operators to report.

> This still means they need to wake up everytime a message is received.

Agreed if urgent messages are going through the same channel as non-urgent. Otherwise, message sent doesn’t necessarily imply message received, and I reckon it makes more sense to encourage people to turn off work notifications out of hours.
I'm not sure you've read the article?
Most of experimental medical research fits your model and is usually called “basic” or “preclinical research”.

This is well regulated by federal laws and guidelines (and hassled relentlessly ironically by non-Vegan PETA members).

Much of the progress in medicine is driven by this basic and preclinical work—-from brewer’s yeast to mice, rats, and monkeys.

If anyone suggests that experimental research using animals has not delivered over the last 100 years please do not just roll your eyes. Tell them that they are flat-out wrong. Almost every disease or human condition has useful animal models—yes even dyslexia and schizophrenia. One exception—-gun-ownership mania.
Fair, although I think we need to understand git’s shortcomings to understand what product needs to be built next. I’d argue that’s what this author is doing.

Yes, it works pretty well using established technologies in the browser already.

At this point the primary operating system globally is Chrome. It is an overlay operating system, but still should go in that category.

The web platform has APIs for just about everything else at this point. Even USB.

The main reason we don't have UDP, aside from some security challenges, is probably that it actually really opens up possibilities for decentralization via direct P2P connectivity, which could rapidly decrease the control and profits of the big internet companies. Yes there is WebRTC but that is not quite the same and specifically is scoped inside of the browser.

Ordinary UDP support would invite things like libp2p to be ported. Then people bringing in entire decentralized applications using web assembly.. and finally people will eventually realize they don't need a bloated overly complex browser and start using lighter weight platforms built in web assembly extended with things like UDP and cryptocurrency support etc.

That will also pave the way for script/app free information browsing as it becomes popular to break out of the Google platform.

So there are billions of reasons for Google to suppress UDP. They would never admit it though.
The article seems rather light on information and rather heavy on mentioning the brand...
Maybe Regolith [1] is something for you. It's an Ubuntu derivative that combines i3 and Gnome. It has sane defaults, a nice app launcher, and everything 'just works': audio, bluetooth, wifi.

I have been using Regolith for half a year now, after 10 years of endless tweaking of XMonad and Gnome under Ubuntu.

This is called "polarized training". Dr Stephen Seiler is the most well-known researcher investigating this and has done many lectures and interviews with endurance sport Youtubers and podascters about this -- just search for his name on Youtube.

The research shows that lots of exercise volume at low intensity, a bit of excersise volume at high intensity, and zero volume at mid intensities is (counterintuitively) the most effective way to build performance at all intensities for endurance sports. This applies both for trained professional athletes and regular people who are untrained.

In some of the videos you'll find, he provides definitions for these zones and makes suggestions about the ideal volume of exercise, as well as the structure of high intensity workouts (how many intervals? how long? etc -- there is research about exactly what intervals are best)

If you are interested in improving cycling performance, https://intervals.icu/ is a fantastic dashboard that can be used to track training, performance and has many charts directly relating to polarised training and Dr Seiler's research (I'm thinking specifically of charts for time-in-zone, cardiac decoupling and heart rate reserve)

There are many cycling training Youtubers but Dylan Johnson is one who comes to mind who looks takes a very evidence-based approach and breaks down the latest research in videos for beginners who want to improve cycling performance
Most countries have better things to do than perpetually going to war and meddling in the affairs of other countries. So on the contrary, there is no reason - inherent or otherwise - why Western Europe would get at all involved in this war. It’s a catastrophe for WE and by extension also for EE.

The US do have an interest and they’re dragging/pushing WE into the fire while EE are jumping head first with barely any encouragement.

If anything the EU has proven that the East-West rift cannot be overcome and that they do not have strategic independence.

HIIT vs. regular cardio is not micro optimization (in your words). Trying to figure out the exact heart rates might count as one.

An analogy to what you are saying would be this: Studying in MIT vs. any random university should be the same. "Go to college, study hard and you will be fine. It's not rocket really science."

Your other points are valid.

> For example, less than 10% of installed renewable capacity in Germany right now is usable: https://twitter.com/burggrabenh/status/1543388878584823810

I just read (literally published right now) that 49% of the energy that has been produced in Germany during the first half of this year is from renewables. 6% more than last year.

https://www.tagesschau.de/wirtschaft/strom-erneuerbare-energ... (German)

That my own solar panel right now has the best time of the year, also makes me doubt the 10% figure.

However, I think Germany will need nuclear, but the government first needs a plausible (in the public eye) reason to do a 180.

Miyazaki's family owned an airplane parts manufacturing company during WWII. In the 80s he contributed manga and illustrations of airplanes and tanks to a hobby magazine Model Graphix. One of these short manga, published 1989, he adapted into Porco Rosso. I don't know if the creators of Talespin would have had access to it but it is possible

Most bubbles start based on some fundamental value rationale. For real estate, the ebb and flow of supply and demand are what sparks the initial price increase.

A bubble occurs when speculators pile into that investment vehicle and drive up demand even further. This becomes a reinforcing phenomenon until the number of new speculators dries up and it suddenly whipsaws the other way.

Nothing is immune from a bubble, but housing is particularly prone to it based on the lag between demand and available supply. It also means the hangover is often decades long while it clears the backlog.

Yes, people need houses. But people don't need 4 or 5 houses as speculative investment vehicles that "pay for themselves" by renting out while they hold it for a couple years before flipping. That's the demand that crashes hard when markets turn.

Which leads to antibiotics being over prescribed because parents don’t want to leave the doctors office without something to do afterwards.

You're not wrong, but sometimes this is purely preemptive and might still be a sound decision. For example, influenza almost never directly kills anyone--the monster flu in 1918 is an exception--whereas secondary bacterial infections (leading to pneumonia) can and do. Antibiotics are often prescribed as an extra precaution; given the atrocious financial resources of most Americans, most doctors know that they only get one shot with most patients, because they can't afford the copays or get the time off work, and that if they under-prescribe and are read to have missed something, they'll face malpractice suits from the desperate. So, they err on the side of immediate caution, since antibiotic resistance is one of those diffuse long-term problems.

Life is worth living well, but it’s also worth accepting the end, something to which many people are openly hostile.

Part of the problem is that capitalism creates a collapse of trust from which there is no recovery. Is the hospital denying or rationing care based on sound medical reasoning (i.e., that the requested procedures won't work, and will divert resources away from people who need them) or because they don't think the patient will be able to pay? Is the doctor performing a surgery because it will improve the patient's quality of life, or because he needs to generate fees? I'm sure most doctors are ethical and try to make the best decisions for the patients--I imagine, at least 90 percent of them do--but, as soon as the profit motive gets involved, distrust becomes endemic and personally mandatory.

Medicine is, to put it bluntly and factually, too important to trust to the profit motive and capitalism.

Still better than nothing and you only need up to 20 min to complete training.
Yes. I am also asking "for a friend!"
Depends on how tightly coupled the WM is to X. My chosen tiling WM (StumpWM) is not easily portable. The development discussion has been that it's easier to rewrite. I used xmonad for years before that.. Well, it's in the name. It's not getting ported to Wayland. Not easily anyway.
I remember back in the 90s caring about window managers and playing with Enlightenment and its weird wavy desktop. It was cool because it was different. I used Blackbox throughout university because we were all on a shared server doing remote X sessions and everyone loading KDE at the start of a lesson would slow it to a crawl.

But then I got two monitors and a job and stopped caring. I need virtual desktops, a launcher, and a good settings app. I’ve never tiled windows outside of Emacs, which runs full screen on one monitor opposite a browser on the other monitor. I’m baffled by people who need to have seven terminals open alongside a tiny YouTube video. Either watch the video or do some work.
I’d love to move away from parent commit hash being included in a commit hash. It makes rewriting history so complex.
On the contrary, very much needed.
Every time I use Git, I see how bad the UX is and marvel at how it ever became popular.

Even a simple merge/rebase leaves one confused. Which should I use? What is incoming? Why does incoming change as you progress? I didn't change anything (on purpose) but Git won't let me change branches. What the hell does stashing do? How do I just unfuck what I did and go back to a branch? These are rather common use cases, and today people still just nuke a directory because they can't figure out the arcane arts. I am one of those people, at times. Because it's faster to do so than read heaps of manpages for a situation I may never hit again.

Git might have awesome tech underneath, I really don't know or care. But someone needs to really spend time in a typical dev's shoes to make it nicer to use.
> Now, nuclear is neither feasible nor economically viable..)

That's not true. Nuclear is in fact the only feasible replacement for gas and coal as a stable energy source.

I agree that sometimes the drinking is a bit excessive, But I would be sad if pubs disappear and going our becomes more static.

The issue with a "proper" dinner in a restaurant is that (next to it often being to much food which lead to other issues) it feels more like a chore/lethargic/static. specially if done multiply times a week.

While going to a pub you can play a game of cards/pool/darts, walk around and more easily talk to a new bloke you have never seen before.

My point is, (regardless of the drinking) going to a pub is over all more social then sitting in a restaurant.
His point still stands. Your original estimate of the margin was just not realistic.

This obviously varies depending on many factors, but when you factor in labor, ingredients, equipment etc. 10% is a good margin on food. In your hypothetical example the customer who came in, had a meal and nothing else, and then left earned the pub $3 in profit. Someone who has a few drinks in the same amount of time will usually generate more profit.
Technical, but not in the weeds. I'd rather have non-technical than a technical manager who is always diving way too deep for their role and derailing every call.
F1 British Grand Prix: What is halo and how does it save lives?
This is fascinating. I relate to everything you just talked about. Both in the way that I've treated artists, by liking/appreciating them way before they were popular and dropping them once they've achieved fame, and the way that I've treated my own interests. There was a time when I achieved sudden and moderate popularity in a field, which I then blew up by deeply retreating from the spotlight. The life in the public eye can put you in a creative prison, as people expect you stick to a "brand".

After that experience, I deeply understood why Dave Chappelle left the spotlight in his prime, giving up $50m to live in Africa.

Is there anything that I could read to learn more about this?
I'd like to add a point that I haven't seen discussed regarding the cost of change.

In many languages a lot of computer related terms have no native correspondent, therefore they use the ones borrowed from English. If the English IT community decides en-masse to change those terms, the best result is that these people will have to catch up - with some unknown delay - or that they'll not bother, and there will be a disconnect in the terms. Which one is more likely and what the overall effects will be, I have no idea. But it will be a point of friction.
HN is the most moderated site I visit and that includes Reddit. I'm not sure which version of HN you're using. Try browsing with showdead on and vast swaths of moderated content shows itself. Either way, I don't think we're going to agree on a quantitative metric of moderation, so it's unproductive to continue this line of discourse.
The obvious solution to this is to have a separate communication channel for critically urgent/important messages.
But large swaths of the population struggle with maintaining a healthy weight, even with regular exercise.

Regular exercise AND healthy eating AND good sleep? Too much of the population struggles with way too many things to be able to get all 3.

That's primarily because Vulkan is a very low-level, but still portable, API. Different GPUs with different architectures provide memory heaps with different functional and performance characteristics (device local yes/no, host visible yes/no, host cached yes/no, host coherent yes/no), often even within the same device. For example, my Radeon RX 550 has access to 3 heaps: 1.75 GiB device local, 256 MiB device local + host visible + host coherent, 3 GiB host visible + host coherent + [optional] host cached. The last heap can be allocated either host cached or uncached; access from the GPU is presumably faster if it's treated as uncached.

This gives the maximum amount of control over the performance/convenience tradeoff. If you want more convenience, then you can use a library or engine that handles the details for you. It's the same for CUDA: you get the convenience of malloc(), but you potentially lose a bit of performance.
We don’t need any new laws. We just need to apply existing publisher laws to social media companies which are outright acting as publishers.

copy and paste only preserve the content, but not the context. u cannot go back to the original content u copied from.
For me, it's lack of sloppy focus and the mandatory raise-on-focus. I regularly have small utility windows floating in front of terminals or browsers and I don't want a click on those big windows to pull them in front of the small windows.

I hear iTerm has sloppy focus between its own windows, but ... that's not enough, is it?
The parser.py [1] has only 1.6k lines. And it is hand-written parser. This size is amazing if it's really capable, but I intuitively doubt it. For example, duckdb's select.y [2] has 3700 lines, and this is only for SELECT. ZetaSQL's grammar file [3] is almost 10k lines.

The SQL is a monstrous language. Is there any trick that keeps the code simple?

The fact that private equity firms aren't being bombed for the shit they're pulling now--i.e., the way they're moving into the housing market--is an embarrassment to us as a people.

When they were playing abstract numbers games, it was easy and well enough to ignore them; now that they're getting involved in things that affect human life, it's time to take action.

That said, I don't think pet insurance itself is a bad thing... no one should have to give up on their pet because of bullshit money concerns... but I think insurance should be universal... and we should solve human health insurance first.
I skimmed through the readme but wasn't able to find the commands.

Generally, this is the biggest barrier for me when trying out stuff - there are repos with explanations, but nothing to show how it actually looks or works.

Please add at least sample screenshot of your command line! :D

TaskWarrior is a good sample - it has a page that shows one workflow with commands, so you instantly feel like you know how to use it. If they just said "this is a todo app" etc, I don't think I would have tried it.
I've also tried to convey what my app looks like exactly with actual screenshots - https://github.com/CatalanCabbage/the-wall

Or maybe it's just me being obsessed over this stuff.

Anyway, looking forward to try your app! I've wanted something similar for a while. Right now I use a spreadsheet for spaced repetition (with columns for difficulty and time)

That’s like saying the operating system has version control built in, no fancy tools needed, because you can `cp my-code.c original-my-code.c`, edit `my-code.c`, and have `original-my-code.c` just in case you’d like to reset your code to the old version.

That is to say - sure, it can work, but automated history tracking is far superior.

Though, git does at least have reflog, so if you accidentally delete or overwrite a branch, you should be able to get it back. That’s far better than the equivalent situation with files on a filesystem. But it’s still not real history tracking.

Given you eat the same number of calories, your body expenses the same amount of calories metabolically, and you move around exactly as much before....

That's a lot of givens, given you're talking about a complex system that's evolved over the last million years to keep you from starving.

But actual answer is exercise causes most people's metabolism to slow down slightly, to engage in less movements both conscious and unconscious, and their hunger to increase.

Basically if your body realizes you're expending a bunch of energy it starts to conserve energy in all the other ways.
> And -500kcal per day is only 1 pound of weight lost per week.

So 500kcal per day is only 1 pound gained per week? Sounds like gaining weight is a lot of work! Basically you have to eat 5 large meals for just a single pound? At that rate it will take years of work to go from healthy to obese!
