Right about time. I don't know legal intricacies of Flatpaks on Fedora, but supporting additional "Fedora Flatpaks" sounds like a duplicated effort. Why not contribute to main application Flatpak, instead of forking it and creating more technical debt for the future?
There is a detailed Mission Concept Report PDF linked on the probe's website: https://interstellarprobe.jhuapl.edu. It looks like they're targeting being functional at 400 AU, though it will take 50 years to get there.

Fun networking measurement: they describe the antenna bandwidth as ~150 Mbit/week at 400 AU.
However, by default on NTFS, there will be 4096-N bytes of used space each time the specific hive needs to grow to accommodate those 10-100 bytes (this varied historically if we're talking about NT 4 and below, depending on volume size) due to format cluster size.

That said, it is still smaller than 100 files that are 10-100 bytes each taking up 4096 bytes, though with NTFS, those would be stored in the MFT anyways...
On the language internet point, it's pretty amazing, yeah. For example, all the English youtube niches have Spanish language equivalents, and watchers of one are totally unaware that they are sitting right next to watchers of another. Like some sort of shadowverse.
I think having a strictly-typed language is completely undervalued, especially when ones solution is to use a library that only attempts to enforce types at the runtime level (as I understand).

This is a conversation and people are allowed to bring their knowledge, experience and opinions to the table. This thread started from a map showing the apparent locations of famous persons' birthplaces. I don't see how its any less relevant to steer the conversation towards economic inequality than it is towards gender inequality.

If you'd rather talk about "children in trailer parks", then go ahead - it's the same point.
Okay, but the "physical" outer dimensions must be bigger than the screen size.

If 5.9" were ridiculously large (it is), then so is anything bigger, including the phone that must contain the 5.9" screen.

You’re painting it too binary. Once you’ve seen a few dozen codebases you get pretty good at recognizing the patterns. A senior engineer could/should absolutely be able to familiarize themselves with the general structure of a new codebase in a matter of minutes/hours to the point that they could reasonably start directing a more junior engineer within it.

It’s not “go to this file and do X, Y, and Z starting at line 105”, but more like “Ok so it’s likely that the source of this data is coming from a feed, track down the feed consumer by grepping for [upstreamservice] in the feeds directory, and from there we can get a look at what we’re doing with the incoming feed data”

Same, the only way I can reliably find new music I like on Spotify is to find compilation albums that artists I know feature on and listen to the other tracks.

Your argument is fine as advocacy for contraception, abortion and sexual health in general, but I don’t see how it’s related to nudity.

Especially given that the problems with nudity often correlate with problems with remaining sexual health aspects, ie are being promoted by institutions that equate human sexuality with that of cattle, namely the Catholic Church.

Hitler is also on the map. "Famous" isn't the word used on the webpage - that can sometimes mean "celebrated". The word they use is "notable", which is perhaps more appropriate when talking about people who have committed heinous acts.
I don't have a way to prove this, but I've long suspected that A/B testing might be one of the major culprits to the modern problem of software churn. ie, constantly-changing GUIs, features, and products. Some percentage of users will always have problems with an application or interface. Constantly chasing every user hurdle might sound like a good idea, but I do wonder if it's similar to listening to too much fan feedback in the case of video games, movies, etc. Implementing every fan suggestion will usually make a terrible game. Instead, the ideal is to figure out which fan suggestions to ignore, and which to listen to. Only some of them will work for a given application.

I wonder if A/B testing is a bit like that. You're suddenly listening to every single issue encountered by users, but lack the wisdom to understand which issues to ignore. As a result, software changes constantly, users cannot really learn a GUI because it changes so frequently, and software teams feel like they're constantly improving things, however the software itself is not actually getting better when a the whole user's experience is taken into consideration.
This kind of thing is coming soon. This is something that will work with shiny for python [1] which will be integrated with Quarto (which nbdev is built on top of). When its more stable, this is something we will look into integrating.

In the meantime, the home page for nbdev https://nbdev.fast.ai/ is built with a notebook, and as you can see it is reactive and resizes appropriately. You could follow this example to do something if you wanted to do something today.

When I was born into a poor working family in Poland, my father's monthly salary was worth 15$.

When I was studying I had to carefully plan things like bread in my budget, and I was eating with homeless people regularly.

Same boat as you - only buying notch-free, de-googlable phones.

I'm still happy with my POCO F2 Pro, but if I were to lose it right now I think I would import a Mi Mix 4. Under-display selfie camera is a little downgrade from the pop-up one, but the specs are better and I don't take that many selfies anyway.

The same guy who ported the CrDroid ROM to the F2 Pro also did it for the Mix 4, so I'd be pretty confident of successfully de-googling it.
It doesn't mean that type of ass.
IG doesn’t have any of the people directory. It’s heavily focused on bigger brands, profiles, influencers, and seeing random stuff from these entities I have no personal relation with.

Facebook of old was like what the OP was saying. IG is only marginally like that with friends pic posts.

This is regardless of whatever tiktok stuff since I don’t use IG much for the same reasons as OP.
I used not to care too much, but then life hammered home the lesson that it can be very short.

So now I look at it differently: birthday or christmas or other such days are an excuse to have some kind of gettogether. Take family, friends, someone you've not seen for a while, ... and go out, eat , ... The reason is not important, the activity is not important, but seeing each other again is.

This means my birthday is not about me, it's just an excuse. Nobody should waste money bringing presents or saying congratulations or whatever.
>7 figure returns you made were a direct wealth transfer from later-stage victims of the ponzi to you?

That would be true if there is no value in what was sold but taking ETH that he bought for $7, in 2019 when he sold it was about $250 and is now about $1500 so people buying ETH then would have done just fine. Ponzi schemes are cons that collapse, not open source assets that go up for years and years.

On ext4, a file of 160 bytes or less (and no xattrs) can be stored inline in the inode[1], so the whole thing takes up 256 bytes (plus 8 + [length of filename] for the directory entry). I don’t think any Unix filesystem did that in 1989, but the problem is not unsolvable, especially given that you are hardly going to use a configuration file to store a single value. NTFS does the same, actually, except it can’t count that low, so you get 1K.

(Of course, before there was the registry there were the textual CONFIG.SYS and WIN.INI, but those were shared and would be easily corrupted by programs trying to modify them manually, which I suspect the registry is a reaction to.)

> I believe everything else being equal data-driven is better.

While I understand your point, it also depends on what you mean by "better". It's certainly safer, less risk, more predictable and makes planning easier. It also limits creativity and high pay offs.

Some one else commented that it was like "driving by looking only at the dashboard". You can do that very safely in planes, but you're limited in where you can go. I feel it's the same in business.

There is the option of you having an absolutely massive dataset available. It just seems a bit far fetch to assume that any company would have data that could allow them to move from developing a SaaS product to running a chain of burger joints, because the data indicates that would be a good move.
Three sure bets in life:

I noticed the same thing. Boston, for instance has a ton of people in individual neighborhoods but smaller cities have one person representing the whole city.

Also, it relies on birth location. So someone who, say, left a city and moved at age 5 will be associated with the city they only lived in for 5 years not the one they spent their formatives years in.

Still a fun experiment, though.
TikTok is more like TV. Instagram at least until a few months ago was more like Facebook 2.0. They do compete on attention though.

There's a number of 5G/LTE solutions that are designed with this sort of connection bonding in mind at relatively affordable prices. I'm retrofitting a teardrop camper for remote work in the boonies and settled on a Pepwave device+external antenna radome that supports dual active LTE (with 2 SIMs per provider - so you can double up on 'lines' and effectively double your data allotment) and will bond those alongside any other connectivity that happens to be available (wired uplink, WLAN bridge etc). It even does packet inspection so you can elect to route high-priority traffic (e.g. conference calling/video meetings) over the bonded route while allowing less important traffic to use your default route. Very useful when you've got one LTE provider that's 'unlimited' and another that's not. You can either use their hosted offering for the bonding 'endpoint', or deploy your own with a free virtual appliance pretty much anywhere. Proprietary...but it just works. No futzing around with software on endpoints.

Yes and the iphone is one of the very few competent phones that are not (that) large.

I like it how in your comparison that these modern "compact" phones are almost the same size as the Note 3 which was a phablet when it came out.
> Some of these arguments are not really in good faith. First, this isn't a technical issue with the registry, but with how it's been used over the years and never "refactored" - a distinct issue. Second, I dare you to run "ls /etc" and claim it's not a mess...

I'd suggest that last bit is not uttered in good faith.

20+ years ago you could install the Microsoft Office suite on the Microsoft OS du jour and you'd find about 12k new registry entries.

You could then uninstall that same Microsoft Office suite from your OS, and ... you'd find no decrease in the size of your registry.

In the same epoch -- if you installed a hundred new applications on your Debian GNU/Linux OS, you may end up with several dozen new directory hierarchies under your /etc directory. If you then uninstalled those applications, the /etc/ entries would be gone. If they weren't, you'd file a report on the Debian BTS and that oversight would be resolved within a few months.

For this reason I think it's disingenuous to claim running ls /etc/ is a mess that's equivalent, in any sense of the word, to the microsoft registry.

A bit off topic: Like Amazon, Fnac.com seems to be drifting towards being a "marketplace" rather than a vendor. (I have only shopped in their brick-and-mortar shops, as a tourist in France, so maybe it has always been like this; I don't know.) Do they have the same issues as Amazon with counterfeit goods?

I avoided checking Stadia out in the first place as I thought they'd end up shutting it down after prior experiences. This seems a difficult branding loop to break, but does them no favors.
GVim is a GUI in the same way that a terminal app is technically a GUI. It is surrounded by GUI chrome and has menus and such, but you are working with unstyled plaintext as you would in any other terminal window.

Put this another way, you can tell the difference between something like vim and Emacs versus Kate and Microsoft Word. It is not necessary to get into the minutia of what makes all these text editors different to understand that they are fundamentally different kinds of applications. The former two are clearly terminal apps with GUI chrome around them, the latter two are clearly GUI apps.
Granted I was using IPv4, but I've had a lot of trouble using Wireguard to my Linode server for casual browsing. Google became unusable with repeated captchas, several gaming apps blocked my login. I wish web owners wouldn't automatically classify datacenter IPs as malicious. There must be better ways to block spam/bad actors than by the classification of their source IP.

I don't see anything wrong with the premise of the service or even from what I understand the technical execution.

It's interesting that you're assuming all these workspaces are staged and not how they actually work, with maybe a bit more cleanup like today's lunch bowl not on the desk, or water bottle / coffee cup and a few papers.

I wonder if this indicates that refurbished netbooks actually would have some aftermarket value, for "niche people" or more capable Linux users at least. Maybe they would run into driver issues, though.
Snowflake - founded by Marcin Zukowski, his academic grandson via Peter Boncz.

HyperDB - Actually not columnar at all... but Martin's student, Peter Boncz, works closely with Thomas Neumann, the main originator of HyperDB.

Vectorwise was created by Peter, with involvement of Sandor Heman and Marcin Zukowski, and limited involvement of Martin himself and others at the CWI DB Architecture research group.

DuckDB - also not columnar IIANM, but the work of Martin's research group.

Arrow compute, ClickHouse etc. - inspired by Martin and others' work on column stores.

The Elements of Computing Systems is the book behind nand2tetris. I’ve done the course a few times on Coursera. The astro-8 (the computer in the video from this post) uses microcode in the CPU but nand2tetris just uses instructions whose bits directly drive the cpu. Although I do like how nand2tetris shows how layers of abstractions can be arbitrary, and even simpler than they are usually done in the real world, and you can still build on top of them using additional layers of abstractions. Even in the first step, instead of using different gates you only use nand and then create the needed logic gates from that. And the machine language it uses is at a microcode level and you build a stack language on top of that. (And then build an Java like language on top of that.)
Why not just use the layman terms. Science and logic.

The terms derived from philosophy are the most snobbish in my opinion. Additionally Logic and science formalize these concepts, Epistemology on the other hand has a lot of qualitative mumbo jumbo, with concepts like "belief."

To be fair that's normally the case for Google.
The fact that Google has shut down so many services I used in the past, combined with the concept of game ownership being tied to the service is what kept me from ever even exploring it.
There should be a drinking game: take a shot whenever Google shuts down a service.
