Very interesting! I thought the indicator stalk would be very intuitive because it’s just the same as the steering movement: imitating a right turn with your pinky sticking out initiates a right indication.

The light controls still confuse me and I’ve been driving for 10+ years now. It is also slightly different in different cats too! Sometimes you pull hard, sometimes you push, and I guess sometimes you twist.
The interstate commerce clause is heavily abused, but not allowing states to control behavior in other states seems a pretty straightforward interpretation. The states were always intended to have different laws, from the beginning of the country.

I don't believe this comment is made in good faith, there is nothing wrong with the "right" and it's senselessly adding fuel to our political division.
i dont think so. Chinese citizens seems unable to fight back against the military. they have no access to guns, or mass riots will break CCP's will

just look at north korea and cuba if you want to get a sense for how long these regimes last. USSR was an exception.
Agree with everything you said, but I'd like to describe what I did to get Home Assistant working remotely: Set up wireguard on my home network and on my phone, and have the home assistant app (or mobile browser) access home assistant through the local IP address. I wanted wireguard for other use cases, so I basically got remote home assistant for free.

That being said, Home Assistant is worth financially supporting.
> Those places would have come out better if we all did this.

Evidence required.

Alternative claim: "Those places would have come out worse if we all did this" - neither of which can be proved.
Doing this well for a production system is a hard problem. The sibling comment pointed out HypoPG and Dexter, but I'm not familiar with folks using a simple approach like the one Dexter implements on a production system. The human element is valuable when indexing, to correctly model the workload understanding and assess the trade-offs (index write overhead, etc).

For context, I've personally been working on an automatic indexing system for Postgres for more than a year now [1], and whilst I think what we have today is pretty useful, there is still work to be done. We've intentionally not yet enabled full automation (i.e. actual automatic creation of the indexes on the production database), because most people I've talked with prefer to review a recommendation and then apply it through their regular migration tooling, after making an assessment.

If you ever want to talk more about this, feel free to send me an email - I've spent a lot of time thinking about this topic :)

This is really neat (particularly the git clone example), but I can't quite get over using the same notation as execution for reading. Seems like it could train bad patterns
Intellectual diversity imposed upon universities (rather than being some quasi-constitutional thing to sue over) is in my view solely of use to grifters and morons. It sounds like a nice idea but it's so easily manipulated (especially by politicians looking to signal to their base rather than actually fix something even out of naivete)
> There's an obvious joke there :p

> But I think it's reasonably clear that I wasn't saying they were trying to build a moat around desktop linux, but around those enterprise offerings. One part of that is making their init system the defacto standard.

Frankly, no, it was not, or I wouldn't have written that. Those "enterprise offerings" have zero interaction with Pulse outside of some edge cases in SPICE for VDI.

The only "moat" that "they" were building (and by "they", you mean "individual contributors who happened to have a @redhat.com email address") was in making desktop Linux usable enough for their engineers to work on it day-to-day.

As I said elsewhere, RHEL6 used upstart. "They" made "their" init system the defacto standard by using upstart, finding a metric ton of things wrong with it (and upstart was used in the first place because maintaining complex sysvinit scripts and day 2 operations in horizontally scaling applications was such a nightmare that it was worth throwing away all of the accumulated man hours in those scripts), and writing something better.

Nobody forced the Debian steering committee, Arch, Gentoo, Slack, or anybody else to default to systemd.

> I don't think I can get into it without being rude, but I think that hasn't born out history. If an outsider does submit patches to scratch their own itch they can expect to at best be held to a much higher standard and at worst be treated quite rudely. I recognize that that's going to be subjective but there's definitely some bad blood between gnome and many third parties. Look at lxqt/lxde, appindicators, etc.

GNOME is what it is, and they had that reputation before Pulse.

We shouldn't conflate Pulse and systemd just because they were both Lennart any more than you conflate selinux and podman because they're both Dan Walsh.

This perception also grossly misrepresents or misunderstands open source. If an outsider does submit patches where? Which one of the 600 different projects are they submitting to? How many of them do you presume are controlled by black-robed @redhat maintainers?

OpenSSL, Apache/httpd, coreutils, glibc, and a bunch of other core projects have so few maintainers/contributors that we're lucky they move at all. There is not some "Linux@redhat" repo which it all goes to where patches from outsiders get gated. Open source is a reputation-based community. If a @redhat.com email happens to be a maintainer of a widely-used project, it is, broadly, because they earned it through contributions like anybody else.

Maintainers, once they get there, do tend to get less rigorous code review. That's true. But nobody hands you maintainer rights along with your badge, and the perception that things work this way is untrue both historically and today.

> if I was funding a university I would do things to encourage intellectual diversity.

The first amendment prohibits the state from doing such a thing. They must allow diversity of opinion, they cannot require it (this would be silly, where does it end, Edwards v. Aguillard and Kitzmiller v. Dover seem pretty clear on this).
True, the only real counterpoint is someone who clones the repo, inspects it, and builds from source.
These "simple" use cases break when you need to do anything even slightly more complex than whatever the sysvinit scripts you copied envisioned.

FTFY

systemd might be sad but makes the simple case simple. sysvinit makes everything complex and error prone.

> There are 50 states in the US. Each state gets 2 senators. States with low populations (think, Wyoming) tend to lean republican while the few states with high populations tend to lean democrat. The end result is these rural states end up with a disproportionate level of voting power in the senate where the fillibuster exists.

> Were the US population evenly distributed then this wouldn't be as much as a problem.

Isn't that pretty much what I said? Even if >50% want a national abortion law, <50% want to do the necessary ground-work of "cutting Wyoming down to 0.2 senators".

If people do not want it, then how can it happen? Cutting the filibuster only makes sense if you control the Senate, which is about 50/50 for both parties.

In the second query, a composite index over (x, y) basically does the same job as an index over just x. The general query plan is to iterate over all values > x and keep the 10 smallest values around in memory to satisfy the ORDER BY.

The point is that there are many queries that seem deceptively simple but are actually extremely hard or even impossible to automatically index. Those queries which result in table scans, large index scans, and large sorts can easily dominate all the other queries which are easily indexable in terms of resource usage.

I don't see any real evidence people hate their work. Some people do, but it's not like, an overflowing toilet or wet socks that almost everyone hates.

I personally wouldn't touch a non-systemd system if I didn't have to.

The thing they did to piss people off was breaking with UNIX tradition and not prioritizing simplicity. This makes them hated by enthusiasts, tinkerers, people who don't trust tech, etc, and loved or just passively ignored by corporate sysadmins, non-hobbyist everyday desktop users, general devs just trying to make modern software, etc.

It's kind of an unsolvable conflict. People who want simplicity are looking for something very different from people who want everything to just work and never require looking under the hood.

This is slowly changing: ... the field of an AI capable to offer explainable predictions is called eXplainable AI (XAI), focused on identifying the most relevant variables, on assigning confidence values to predictions, and offer explanations about what was learnt]

How do you rate "significantly better" though? From stats I've seen every developed nation did significantly better than the US. But it's true there are plenty of places using a "light touch" approach that have seemingly achieved much the same level of excess mortality etc. of others that took much stronger measures. Having said that, I live in one of the latter places, and one reason our net result isn't so great now seems to be that the strict measures taken in 2020-21 wore everyone out and we're just not prepared to sustain even basic precautions now. Though it may also be due to lower natural immunity levels.

This, and it seems like it needs repeating every time somebody brings up systemd.

The SysV init scripts weren't good, they were crufty and slow, and messy when you wanted to customize something, and -- this doesn't get said enough -- used no Linux-specific features at all. Systemd was an upgrade that was sorely needed, and brought features to the init system that just didn't exist before.

Why not rethink it, then?

I understand that there was a civil war before, but doesn't secession make way more sense now? If only the Democratic states participate, then the necessary consensus to make serious changes (e.g. European-style parliamentary democracy) would be much easier; the Republicans would maybe also tolerate it, given that it would allow them to introduce the laws that they wanted to.

How are you going to keep your country together with the way things are currently going?
Some people sound more and more desperate each day for provoking people to riot. The more angry, the better. Why do they do this? and why now? This is the good question.

I would assume (I'm just speculating) that the goal is to make the Capitol assault look better by comparison. Or sell the idea that it was antifa, or galvanize their own forces again under the "them or us", "kill or be killed" etc... idea.

If everybody is rioting, nobody is. At some point you can't jail everybody and a general pardon could be proposed as the only realistic solution.

But is just one silly idea.

Maybe to divert the focus from Russia creating mass shootings, stampedes and all kind of problems inside? Another stupid idea.

Most of everything sucks. The point is that the showrunner model, with rotating directors and writers, is the industry norm; it's not some goofy thing Amazon is doing to cut costs.

I saw the first season of American Gods on Starz as well. It did not motivate me to watch the second season. That same year, though, we had The Good Place (showrunner), Better Call Saul (showrunner), The Deuce (showrunner), The Leftovers (showrunner), Maisel (showrunner), and Legion (showrunner). I think the model acquits itself nicely.

You can think for yourself. But to spell it out for you: if all countries had simultaneously shut down travel for a couple of months then we could have all been at the level of New Zealand or Japan. Neither of which crashed their economies. Once vaccines were available we would have been able to open up travel again and we'd have been better off collectively. Even those places where they did shut down, because after they opened up they were still exposed to plenty of people who imported the virus from abroad, something that would have happened at a much smaller scale otherwise.

So you can reason it out, the fact that we can't re-run the experiment is a pity.
