It might be because on the server side they usually don't care about energy or RAM much. The StackOverflow dev team has an interesting blog post somewhere, where they explain that they figured at one point C#'s GC was the bottleneck and they had to do a lot of optimizations at the expense of extra code complexity to minimize the GC overhead.

It is actually quite rare that companies think of their infrastructure costs, it's usually just taken for granted, plus that there aren't many ARC languages around.

Anyway I'm now rewriting one of my server projects from PHP to Swift (on Linux) and there's already a world of difference in terms of performance. For multiple reasons of course, not just ARC vs. GC, but still.
What causes Hair Loss and How to Regrow it[video]
At least a mirror won't tell me "you're fucked, give up now". In that sense, I can expect a less enervating response.
I'm still reading it as such.
We're still at a point where at least 60$ of users (according to Google) are still IPv4-only. I imagine we're still a little far from the tipping point where IPv4 becomes less valuable.
Quite hard, actually, since that's mostly what v6 already does and you can see how many things need to change to accommodate it. Most other parts of v6's design are the same as v4, so it's not really very complicated compared to what we've already got.

(Of course v6 adds more than just one octet, since one additional octet wouldn't be enough even for the current size of the Internet, let alone for future growth. It would be really stupid to go through all this effort, only to have to turn around and do it all again immediately afterwards because you forgot to add enough the first time around.)
Not exactly what you’re after but IF you’re on Mac/iOS you can set up Reeder (https://reederapp.com/) in combination with iCloud to sync across devices.

Or if you don’t care about having multiple devices synced you can simply use the app and have your local feed.
The otherwise healthy man with no iron deficiency has no reason to take daily iron supplements for 5 years and therefore no need to monitor iron levels. If they are iron deficient there is some sort of blood loss or underabsorption going on and if and until that is corrected an oral iron supplement is unlikely to cause toxicity. If it is corrected, then iron replacement should only take a few months.
As someone who also did the dual-hose conversion.

For some background, you probably know that the AC works by sucking in air and then outputting one stream that's hotter and one stream that's colder. The cold air is blown into the room and the hot air is ventilated out the hose. The problem now is, that the hot air you blow out of the room creates a vacuum and in turn sucks in hot air from the outside. So you constantly take some of the nice cool air of your room and heat it up and blow it out of the building. The dual hose setup instead takes air from outside for the heating up part.

The dual-hose setup should go in tandem with a well isolated window insert. For my mod, I simply taped a cardboard box to the inlet side of the AC unit and created a second opening into the polycarbonate plate covering the window opening.

> Did you manage to get an improvement of efficiency?

Yes, definately. I didn't do any scientific measurement, but after the mod, my workspace did get a lot cooler than before.

> What model of A/C were you using ?

If you want to drastically reduce the number of new books, songs, content then sure.

Otherwise, I am having a really hard time understanding how can you suggest that I don't own the book I spend a *decade* to write. It is just as mine as the car you drive is yours.

To tighten regulations around intellectual property to make sure that it is not abused - sure.

To ban? Obviously never.
Doesn't it depend what staff you have? I would have agreed with this in 2018 but the world has moved on.

If you have a bunch of people who know it, you can deploy a cluster into gcloud or aws with a few clicks or lines of IaC.

Would I recommend a startup team learn kube while trying to ship a product? No.

Would I think it's a red flag if a team who already know it choose it as their preferred platform? Also no.
The size of the market generally scales with your marketing and distribution capacity.

To the point of the original article, smaller companies have a hard time competing due to less reach. That's missing. If I run Disney and can reach 4 billion people, and your 5-person shop can reach 50,000 people, I can either price my product 5 orders of magnitude lower than you, or invest an extra 5 orders of magnitude into development.

That's expensive. If I want to comply with Khazak tax laws, provide support there, and reach distribution channels there, I probably want to pay for an office there. That office might have four people, regardless of whether we sell 1 product or 100 products.

A lot of what app stores do is provide that kind of reach to all businesses, driving pricing down.

Personally, I'm a big fan of government grant funding for free software. It seems like the OS, office suite, video editor, and similar tools ought to have a baseline versions available to anyone for free.
Pozidrive are probably the most common screw here and i hate them. They still cam out really easily and it is not immediately obvious what size Pz bit goes with what screw.
Maybe they were once a improvement over Philips but there is no reason for them when we have torx.
I can't imagine getting rid of it completely would have good effects, as it would make any large scale production impossible. You might still get a few blog post, but getting books produced will be tricky and something big like a movie might be outright impossible. This is doubly true in the modern digital world were everything can be copied in a fraction of a second and where the piracy site, not the authors, will be what bubbles to the top of the search results.

It could also result in far more draconian DRM, as that would be the only way left to protect your work.

Now drastically lowering the time of copyright might be well worth it, something in the realm of 20 years should be enough. As copyright needs to get back to a point where things you consumed in your lifetime, make it into the public domain in your lifetime.
Interesting. Some of the energy conscious home builders have used the same concept for quite some time but of course not many of them. This concept is also in my "energy efficient dream house" wish list. I think it demonstrates that in fact Europe can innovate when there is pressure on it.
Not sure if this fits the bill :

a) blot.im # I am a happy customer. Starts at 4$ per month.
b) https://mataroa.blog/ # Not tried this. But looks promising.
Interesting. What kind of usage have you observed?

I have come across similar use of "revert" in private correspondence from old-fashioned lawyers at small high-street law firms in England. As a rule of thumb, if a solicitor writes that they will "revert to you shortly" you may expect:

* They are fairly close to retirement.
* They don't know much about laws that have changed since about 1980.
* They almost certainly won't get back to you in a reasonable time unless you repeatedly send reminders. They are probably hoping that they will be able to retire before having to invent a meaningful response to your enquiry.
Neither are reputable sources, I'm afraid.

> I’m not saying they are perfect sources, but they do align with anecdotal datapoints.

So you say, but that's definitely not true for me (who lives in the States and Ireland). In fact, it's an absurd claim to me.
Thanks for your feedback. Could you tell me on which mobile device and which browser did you notice these scrolling issues?
I arrived in Heathrow yesterday 2.5 hours before my flight to a huge queue stretching outside the terminals into the parking lots. Mortifying to see. To my surprise I was past security in about an hour.
From my professional experience js has become more stable and has slowed down in the past few years.

The last big thing happened to js was a typescript.

React from major version to version is less and less disruptive (in a good way) etc.

Yes there are still new fancy projects popping up like mushrooms. But only few survive in the long run (as in other languages).
> And we can not even directly compare a MP3 player to Spotify, which is paid to do an entirely different and way more complicated job, considering that you are able to browse and organize a completely different and incomparably larger (and automatically growing) set of media.

Spotify has two drawbacks though: you need a constant Internet connection and it removes tracks at will. The constant internet connection can be solved by downloading media to the device, but the fact that some tracks (even whole albums) can become unavailable suddenly is utterly disappointing. This is the reason I keep buying CDs. Spotify is an amazing tool to listen on the go but whenever I feel a real connection (no pun intended) with an artist's music, I have to buy their art in a physical format.
There is another similarity with tomb raider.

At confined resolutions / lower versions, Lara's most famous "features" become composed of a limited discrete number of polygons, appearing pyramidal in nature, and with an apparent increase in size (a phenomenon known as "boob shift")

But once you increase the version number, you get a nice continuous function space instead.
It's a scam, not the government's fault. There would be no way to enforce such a law. It's on you to understand that get-rich-quick schemes are too good to be true.

I used Ubuntu Unity for a while when I realized, such a strange feeling: yeah, I seeked for, downloaded, trusted, and I am very satisfied with the work of a ~12 yo kid.

Also I can recommend Ubuntu Unity. It's not that different from gnome, but works great.
Right, fuck book writers and inventors.

Also, the information about nuclear, chemical and bio weapons should be accessible to everyone. Preferably as DIY recipes, that you can follow at home.
In my experience, Philips is not really that bad as long as you're using the right sized driver.

I've come across a lot of screws that look like they should take a #1 bit, on account of being so small. But they actually have a #2 head, which can be driven with a #1 driver, with a lot of effort and damage to the screw head.

For such a common tool, this is a pretty major flaw in usability.
Our startup has a webapp that acts as a UI for a machine learning application. We have two different types of heavy workloads (ML and something else). The workers for these run on Kubernetes, which makes them easy to scale (which we do a lot, automatically). The app itself doesn't run on Kubernetes yet (simple VM). It would be better if it did, though! We keep building a lot of functionality ourselves (e.g. deployment without downtime) that would be easier with K8s. I think what you really want to avoid is Microservices, not K8s. K8s gives you many advantages, such as the entire config in Git, containerized workloads, deploy management, etc., which sooner or later, you'll find yourself wanting. Depending on how you get started, the learning curve can be steep, and some of the tools are not mature but supposedly used by everyone (ArgoCD for deployment?).
They attack banks as being poor investments, and position themselves as the modern way to get better yields

> it is usually one rule

But it is not, because you have to let ICMP pass through, for IPv6 to work (eg. for path MTU discovery to work (no more "classic" fragmentation in ipv6)).

So it's one rule to block incoming traffic, and a bunch of rules to properly allow ICMPv6 to pass through to the internal network (look at the RFC linked above)
In mid air the engine of the plane suddenly stalled, for no apparent reason. In a few seconds the rpm dropped to zero, and they dropped like a rock.

Sorry to hear about the crash, hope they will do well.

But this seems inaccurate. Small aircrafts don’t drop like a rock on engine failure, unless it’s already a stall situation, to my knowledge. Can someone clarify this?

Ye. I installed TikTok to see what it was all about and the default feed is a bit terrifying. It was some mix of antisocial incitement, lightly dressed teenage girls and "dudes being cool" videos.

The climate seems way worse than Facebook/Instagram. And that says alot.
The building spectrum covers from consulting on one end to crafting on the other end.

The first step is to know yourself. Which style are you? Which style you want to be?

If you are on the consulting end, talk to people, understand the problem, build a solution, and iterate on it. This is how software has been preached to be built for decades. Waterfall/agile/whatnot are all the same, assuming idea come from somewhere and keep iterating your solution.

If you are on the crafting end, you have an ideology to preach. Akin to art in any form, you are both the source of idea and executor. You broadcast your ideology and look for followers. Rich Hickey of clojure, Mike Bostock of D3.js and Bret Victor are on this camp in my opinion.

Note that you can hop between crafting and consulting/iterating. But iterating is like newton method, no amount of iterating will get you to answer if the initial guess is too off. So one has to have strong conviction to craft an initial solution with good enough quality before launching into iteration cycles. I've seen many "metric-minded" product people obsessed about iteration without having any conviction on what to build. Without the initial conviction, no amount of iteration can give you clojure, d3.js and co.
It's 2001::0:8080 port 80. Require the brackets for specifying a port number with a v6 address, and don't accept a port without the brackets. That way there's no ambiguity.

Was the train from BER?

I'm pretty sure any train from BER airport would be covered under the 9-euro ticket. The trains not covered under the ticket are primarily ICE (inter-city high speed) and anything operated by another company (e.g. FlixTrain).
IMO, the lasting stability of a UI is a far greater factor in long-term user acceptance, satisfaction and facility than almost any breaking "improvements" that are imposed by developers - c.f. Firefox for a negative example.

So, if you want to (re-)introduce a new desktop paradigm, give users a simple mechanism to choose to disagree.
Beautiful hardware let down by its software? Sounds like every Sony product I've ever bought.
A decent new airport or significant airport reconstruction costs probably $5B+ (DEN cost $4.8B in the 90s; Beijing Daxing cost $11.5B) In austerity-minded Europe there really isn’t money for this. Even if there was, NIMBYs and green campaigners mean there is very little appetite to pursue it politically.
There is a case of a woman born without a cerebellum, and the neocortex was able to compensate. Her movement was less smooth than most peoples, but close enough to “normal” that she didn’t discover her cerebellum was missing until well into adulthood when she had a brain scan for an unrelated reason.
The plane should have also been uncertifiable as MCAS lacked sufficient redundancy in air data or computing for so much control authority. It's not clear whether this was deliberately concealed by Boeing or if they had just lost the institutional memory to know that this solution was inherently unsafe.
I love my Sony NWZ-A15¹. My whole music collection fits on a 128 GB SD card. I always found streaming apps lacking. Spotify's UX is atrocious. I also don't think that their recommendation algorithms work well. There's also a huge gap in availability of non-mainstream recordings in most streaming services.

That's a constructive answer, so thanks, although I have to ask your view of how BSD was used by apple to build a massive fortune but without paying significantly back to the BSD community.

Overheard from an IP lawyer I stood near to once - something about f/oss software being incorporated into commercial products being a big issue (for the free stuff, not the company doing the 'stealing' of it). Your view?
I'm very much with you on this, but I do understand that it's one of those things that is just not feasible when your team has no sysadmin/devops experience.

You were able to do it, but what happens to them when you're not around? Does their team have the required experience to handle it? That's the difference in cost. It's like DYI - yes, if I have all the skills and experience I can do everything myself incredibly cheaply, but... I don't. So I gotta pay.

But if your team does have the skills and experience, it's definitely worth looking into.

I do think people deeply underestimate what can be achieved with a single (or two, if you need a standby) dedicated Linux server these days. A single server can easily go up to 2TB of RAM and 128+ cores. Long before you ever get to a scale where that's a limitation, you'll have more than enough resources to figure things out.
The amount of hate Unity would get on this website... Hackers gonna hate it seems. It's a shame that Canonical listened.

On a positive note I'm very impressed that the reboot is being lead by a such a young developer. Thank you!
not op but was in same situation for few years as in my region A/C is somehow luxury and a lot of landlords don't mount them.

the issue with portable A/C is that most of the units needs to stay inside apartment, the cooling happens by compression/decompression of coolant, which produces heat and cold. so the A/C unit is producing additional heat that it needs to chill, which makes it inefficient. also these units are loud as fuck, most of them above 65dB.

so if you are in need, look for units that have the ability to channel cold air to the house from outside. otherwise you should always avoid portable A/C as it is really inefficient.

here's better explanation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_-mBeYC2KGc
The solution is simple:

ONLY private persons should own patents, and it should be illegal even for employers or institutions (academic, research) to own patents of people employed to do research. At most companies and istitutions should be allowed to add a clause of "perpetual-free-usage of any patents of employees resulting from direct work" - but an employee or group-of-employees holdig a patent should still be able to license it to other companies too. If businesses are hurt, that's GOOD, most should not exist as coagulated entities.

We're not gonna have proper freedom preserving capitalism ultil we properly decentralize: we all work like swarms of 1-person-companies / solopreneurs contracting between eachother. (No, not the gig-economy, in that distopia we're all still slaves that can't band together to fight the masters.) Legislation will automatically have to be refacored to make this work. With some exceptions, only human individuals should hold most property, not companies and not institutions. Groups/collectives only when the group members directly worked together and know eachother.

And Intellectual Property would just "click in" in in such context. IP sounds hellish and disfunctional because our own practically techno-communist society (yeah, even USA is practically "communist" nowadays in a way - newsflash: "the reds" have won! even the f symbolism is there, "the red pill" is the good one now... all's backwards) is messed up. It makes perfect sense in a hyper-decentralized hyper-individualistic REALLY democratic and REALLY capitalist society.

I see four issues in its issue tracker with the "bug" label. Of these, one seems not to be reproducible on real hardware, one of them looks like a feature request, one of them is a bug in deliberately non-verified code (therefore doesn't say anything about formal verification), and the remaining one involves a hardware-level timeout due to bootloader code taking too long. If you believe this is the error rate of any non formally verified software, that these are exploitable from a security perspective, or that these are indicative of some serious failure in the specification process, you have a very different understanding of software than I do. i.e., I would imagine when people talk about "software is only as good as its specification" they are imagining some dramatic flaw that undermines the guarantees of the system, rather than "I can't use the last 4 KiB in the address space."
You can get away without an orchestrator right up until about when your ARR hits $10mm

Hiring people with k8s experience in 2022 is not a difficult task, it's not an obscure technology anymore, and when your initial crop of devops decides to leave, the new guys coming in can scan your deployments and namespaces and pretty much hit the ground running within 48-72 hours. That's a big, important part of running a business. Being able to hire people with the right skill set, and being able to keep the lights on.

Bespoke systems built on top of EC2 require time, extra documentation and a steep learning curve, not to mention the fact that the bespoke system probably isn't getting security audits or being built to modern standards or best practices, tooling isn't being kept up to date. I can build a mechanical wristwatch in my garage, but if I had full access to the Rolex factory floor for free, I'd probably take that option.
Decent satellite internet for people who can't get anything else?

I don't see how 4G/5G home internet existing removes the point of it.
I think that regardless of the scheduling tool, it is very worthwhile putting in the effort to make your tasks idempotent. I've had tons of cases when I had to repeatedly rerun failed tasks "in anger", and was always grateful to know I made it safe to do so.
"We researched it and contracted a sweepstakes company who helped us run the sweepstakes legally."
This is a contradiction, it can never happen.

There are only two options:

1) Release it, and eventualy people will modify it to do whatever they please.

2) Never release, stalling forever because "we still haven't ensure it's safe".

This is why OpenAI is such a joke: they know that the moment they release it people will do things with it.

So the only solution to that is to NEVER release it.

The name OpenAI is a complete joke. They will never succeed in "making them safe". It's impossible.

Unless they never release it, thus going against their own name "Open"AI.
It definitely correlates. Ruby is not the culprit though. It uses and abuses memory as fairly as other similarly GC backed dynamic languages. The issue may be rails and the monolithic pattern, which favours rapid feature development and postpones optimization for when necessary, or one can no longer realise that snippet you wrote 2y ago fetching data from the db scales well for 5 objects, but not 500 objects, but you forgot about that already.

Ruby has a generational GC which already supports compaction, but not in a production ready continuous way, which means most usages have it turned off, and memory pages tend to overcoming and stay fragmented for long running processes. Python has the same issue and node AFAIK.
