My usage of tiling window managers is quite different from what you describe. For the most part, I only have two windows open. Sometimes I am actually using two applications concurrently. More often than not, the second window exists solely to make the window I'm working in narrower. I formed this habit long before floating window managers could snap windows to the edge of the screen and never felt the desire to move on. Besides, I find an inactive terminal far less distracting than a hole showing the desktop.

My point wasn't about the blinker (i.e. turn signal on the outside of the car) being bad. The point was the annoying beep, which will not make me use the blinker any more or less. It was also just an example. There are other beeps that are simply just annoying and not helpful, while the car in question is actually missing other very useful information (that I have had in other cars before). Basically some cars systems have better UX/UI than others. The worse ones are annoying and distracting. The better ones present you the necessary information you need.

I have actually been in situations where swerving around an obstacle that appeared suddenly was the best option more than once. If I had hit the brakes, someone could have been seriously hurt (not just talking about making metal and plastic trash out of a car) - sometimes that someone being me, by being squished by something much larger, heavier and better built than my car's tiny crumple zone. Think huge - probably full of heavy stuff too - truck trailer coming at me with its broad side. If I had hit the brakes instead of speeding around it, I would not be writing this.

In such a situation you do not have time to think about a button you have to press to disable some "please adhere to the speed limit" software. You ideally want to be in an automatic transmission car where you can just floor the pedal and it makes a jump, unless you're a able to shift down quickly like a race car driver and floor it. I guess my point is that these system really do need to take into account the worst case you can imagine and make that worst case safe.
Are you saying nuclear war is preferable to climate change? What exactly is your definition of good? It sure isn’t the well-being of humanity or the planet.
So the idea is to train a model on clear data but provide inferences on encrypted data?

I think it could be interesting? Take recent events regarding Roe vs Wade and the fear driving women to uninstall period tracking apps. The best solution is to store data locally, push the model to the users and do inferences on device and never upload anything that could be tracked. Could this tool be used to make a safe version where the model runs on a server?

Edit: I must be misinterpreting something because the way to make that work would be by running X_test through encryption (client side) before passing the encrypted values to predict (server side) then finally decrypting y_pred_fhe client side as well.

> maybe the very idea of a "rockstar" is obsolete

I think the idea of a "rockstar" will still continue. Just how they make their money is different.

In pre-recording times musicians made money through direct appearance or a patron.

Recordings come along and money is made on the duplication. Digital comes along and duplication is not an impressive feat anymore.

So I think money will be made on the appearances again.

I am curious about patrons though, will they be a thing again?

> Cruise taped a "thanks to coming to the theaters" thing that ran before Top Gun when I saw it, and it definitely looked about a decade older.

Yeah I noticed this too. His speech was slower and forced (it seemed like he was having trouble breathing). The skin around his neck was tight in a way that you only see in more elderly folks.

The movie was nothing like this but in that tape it was just completely obvious he was a 60 year old dude. Nothing wrong with that of course you just don't normally see him looking like that and didn't even in the movie itself.
Ask HN: Who Was Axxo?
If you have downloaded torrents, Axxo was one of the best recognisable names (individual or group) for having the best "packaged" movies, each around 700 MB (around 2005-6 till 2010). Thereafter, the legend vanished, and the crackdown on piracy became more vitriolic.
So who was Axxo?
Can us common people get to decide what the common good is, or is that exclusively your choice?

Censorship is something governments do, not private companies selling an optional product.

I feel like in the American workplace we’re expected to be casual and friendly with everyone while also being acutely aware of rank. So if your boss sends a silly meme, you might want to reply with another silly meme. But if you go over your boss’s head and send an unsolicited “hey <first name of the boss’s boss>” email, you might still be in for repercussions. Just because everyone is on a first name basis and drinks beer together at happy hour doesn’t mean they’re really on equal footing.
I'm not arguing for autarky, I'm arguing for maintaining a strong negotiating position to keep from being taken advantage of. Fuel is fungible, and electricity is provided by regulated monopolies who are forbidden to price-discriminate, so the same issues don't arise as when you're outsourcing your core business processes to Microsoft.

I don't think FedEx re-hiring a competent sysadmin team and rebuilding data centers once they've lost that knowledge is merely a question of spending enough money on the problem; it's the kind of high-risk IT project that often sinks companies.

PipeWire has been increasingly beneficial to my usage of audio on Linux as time passes as well. Each update seems to fade it a little more into the background so I simply need not worry about it. Audio just does the expected thing for me these days, without fiddling or "hackery" required to make it so. It's also nice no longer having to worry about whether a particular bit of audio software is for Pulse, ALSA, or Jack. They all just work.
These mightier institutions were trying to defend a peg while dealing with fractional reserve and/or a deficit in the trading sheet.

A stabletoken like USDC is not any of that. It is (or should be) backed 1:1 by dollars, and the institution holding USDs should be profiting only for the service provided, not by re-investing the money.
Immortal is not a random game, it is a Diablo game

Diablo 3: "The game set a new record for "fastest-selling PC game" by selling over 3.5 million copies in the first 24 hours of its release"

Genshin impact released in 2020, 2 years passed and in the West mobile gaming revenue almost doubled (from 115 billions to 164 billions), so there is room to double Genshin's record

If blizzard was smart, it could have set a new record with Immortal; but they failed miserably with their biggest IP

So no, it's not 15%, it's close to 30-40% less if the game was released during the same timeline

Even if you suppose that Git had some extreme UX overhaul to the point of renaming builtins like "branch", the existing names would still survive in the popular zeitgeist, as they predated Git.

So, I think it's an interesting thought experiment, but practically speaking a non-starter.

You'd never be able to fully migrate over, instead it would be another case of that xkcd about N standards.
Yeah, that's my thinking. Also as a small startup they don't benefit from confiscating your profits through price discrimination; if anything, they benefit from "investing" in you as a customer, to help you get to profitability, while remaining as addicted as possible to their services.

DBMS don't do this by default because indexes aren't free. Each additional index means the database has to write to an additional location for (potentially) every insert/update.

The feature would need to also keep track of which indexes are unused and remove them over time to avoid the massive write amplification that would come from building a new index for every query that crossed the threshold over time.

As someone who has dealt with localization pipelines before, I totally agree with your sentiment. People doing translation work should not need to deal with code. I like that you opted for translation IDs, though that can get messy switching back and forth to know what the English (or whatever the base language is) actually says. The IDs are somewhat worth it though since you can try and use old translation files unlike the gettext methodology which looks for 1-1 string matches.
For me Pulse was brutally broken for the longest time. Bit by bit most of the various glitches did get worked out, but the "pain points" of that process did leave me a bit bitter over how Pulse was really kinda "forced" on us long before it was "ready for prime time". Same with systemd, and same with the KDE3⇒KDE4 transition. All pushed too hard for widespread adoption too early in their development, while many of the worst bugs were still commonplace occurrences in daily usage.
> However, I think where we disagree is the assumption that the Court can only perform judicial review on state laws when they violated explicitly enumerated rights in the constitution or US federal law.

Actually no. I think there are unenumerated rights: marriage, procreation, inheritance, paternal and maternal rights, and countless others.

Abortion is not one of them unless you are also arguing against the paternal interest of the Father and the life interest of fetus (mind I’m not going to say that begins at birth, I actually don’t have a strong position on that specific question at this time). That’s what makes it no longer simply a matter of privacy, or bodily autonomy or whatever substantive due process claim you could make; another human being is implicated.

That doesn’t mean we shouldn’t pass any legislation at all legalizing abortion to a point, but we have to make a political determination where that point is, and that will vary State to State, and it has to be legislation, not the Courts. That said I’ll give you this, if the courts want to step in at some point and protect the right to abortion in the cases of ectopic pregnancies, I’m all for it. I just hope they never have to.

> Otherwise, they could just offer a 5% savings account, deposit the money into the crypto market you're talking about, and make an easy 6% return.

No, you can not. If you go to learn how Uniswap (the AMM system being discussed) works, you'll see that liquidity providers revenue comes from the swap fees. There is no compound interest, or any compounding effect for that matter.

If more people went on to become liquidity providers, the profitability of the liquidity pool would go down unless there was corresponding increase in the swap activity. There is no arbitrage there.

For anyone interested in a statistical analysis of this stuff, here's one example: https://freopp.org/is-college-worth-it-a-comprehensive-retur...

They are a libertarian thinktank, so take it with a grain of salt, but it's a lot more data than we've had in this thread so far.

TLDR: Engineering pays, computers pay almost as much, art and music are usually a net negative (over 42 working years).

Looking at math, 88% of graduates will earn a 42-year ROI of <=$1,000,000, which means most of them are earning an additional $24k/year on top of what they could've expected to earn without a degree ("counterfactual earnings": https://freopp.org/how-we-calculated-the-return-on-investmen...). Only 3% of math majors should expect a negative ROI (i.e., they would've been better off NOT getting their degree). By comparison, 68% of art & music majors will have a negative ROI on their degree.

What was wrong with Slackware's bag full of shell scripts?

Maybe I'm misunderstanding what people want an init system for, but I'd expect to need little more than "run these 10 tasks. Potentially, wait for A to finish before starting B". Its job should be over when you see the login prompt.

It feels like modern inits are more like a watchdog/messaging system-- which seems like something which would be an optional add-in atop a real init system.

I want to run a custom utility at power on. It's not a weird expectation. This should take no more than one line of code to achieve, adding "/usr/local/bin/toolname &" to some sort of rc.local file.
Why be a management company on top of a delivery company? Or a finance company on top of a delivery company? Or an employer on top of a delivery company? Because if you outsource any of those functions 100%, your vendor owns the actual company.
Right, the problem is politicians' incentives, and since their incentive is to get us to vote for them, the problem is us.
We've also been presented with the sole intermediaries between the "science" and ourselves. If we dared to question anything, we were asked if we were an expert instead of the experts explaining why we were wrong.

It's very comparable to how the Church and clergy were the sole intermediary between God and man when Martin Luther nailed his 95 theses to a door, which began a movement that helped develop the freedom of speech.
That's a good instinct to have. 99% of the time we're writing something like an object library that's part of a much larger program. To use global variables in such code would impose difficulties on the application as a whole, with regard to things like threading, pollution of the linker symbol table, etc. But when you're writing small main.c programs like this one which don't use threads, globals can be a real advantage. In gdb, you can easy inspect their values. You can look at the linker output manifest listing to see how they're being arranged in your binary. If you look at a lot of the old original UNIX programs that were written back in the day, a lot of them looked very similar to this. So it's a great style. It's just not one that scales to large monolithic programs that most companies prefer to create. So over the years a cultural aversion to it was developed in many style guides.
That’s what the discussion was about. Otherwise why is any talking here happening?

> There are obvious reasons why you don’t want sparsely-populated stretches of contiguous territory to feel disenfranchised on account of their smaller population.

You and others can’t keep saying this stuff as if it’s true by default just because we are brainwashed into this as kids in school and in every day life. Again I ask. Why is that a worry for minority populations but not any of the variety of other minority populations I listed before?

If you do feel that populations like lgbtq, different minority skin colors, different mental health conditions, disabilities, also shouldn’t feel dosenfranchised, then how come that’s exactly what’s happening with some of these populations with the current system of giving a ton of power to rural low population conservatives? Like lgbtq, some minorites, etc. It’s contradictory logic.

I wonder what exactly would happen if the feelings of these rural people are felt to be disenfranchised. What are the obvious reasons you assert? Why are those reasons better than myself and many others feeling disenfranchised with the current senate and electoral college system who aren’t in rural places?

The point of the piece was to point out the issue with this way of thinking. Science exists to find flaws in a hypothesis, not find evidence to support it.

Of course fatality rate isn't the only thing that matters; however I was giving an example of one person claiming that fatalities (not fatality rate) were overstated by an order of magnitude, and another person claiming -- I'm not sure what -- that multiplication is wrong.

But it seems that allintitle can only be used at the beginning of a query, so there's no way to combine it with non-title keywords.

But for some reason that doesn't work in Wikipedia's search, even though CirrusSearch is based on Elasticsearch.
Just an observation: the native apps that are better are built on massive, proprietary frameworks developed by platform owners. In some ways, most of the web frameworks are trying to be the One True Web Platform Framework that similarly makes it possible for developers to make better web apps the way that say, AppKit or UIKit makes that possible on Apple's platforms.

So I'm left wondering, did the frameworks fail or did the web developer community fail?
That may have been true in the past but his latest work, like "Uncut Gems" and "Hustle" are far from "Happy Gilmore".
Not sure how to interpret the question. Using a robot vs. a person doesn't change anything about the physics of how tissue responds to perturbation. You can of course simplify the simulator and correspondingly limit its use to specific learning objectives, probably novice-level. To return to the thread's starting point—we understand flight well enough to make general-purpose flight simulators, we don't understand tissue well enough to make general-purpose surgical simulators. You can still make simple interactive training tools to help someone rehearse the motions of a procedure, but I wouldn't call such a tool a simulator.
