Building codes only require upgrading the home's electrical when doing certain types of repairs/renovations. Newer homes will have afci or gfci breakers on most circuits.
Lots more different than that:

+ Windows has the Windows key (which Linux called "super")

+ Windows also has the context menu key, which I think it pretty useless to be honest but others might get value from that

+ The Mac keyboard layout is US-like, even on European models. Which means a bunch of keys are in different places from their European IBM counterparts (like @ and "). The # and / keys I find particularly hard to locate on Macs. I often end up redefining my Mac keyboard to be an IBM keyboard even though it differs from the key caps. It's a nightmare for anyone using my Mac but much easier for me who's had ~40 years of muscle memory.

Not the keyboard hardware (so somewhat out of scope for this context) but it's also worth noting that there's some macOS keyboard shortcuts that differ in really confusing ways too. Like

+ Ctrl+C vs Cmd+C

+ Text area navigation on a Mac is totally different too. Home and End buttons behave differently. Ctrl+Arrow keys don't work. Shift+Arrow keys don't select. etc

Every time I spend a few months in Linux and then switch to a Mac (or visa versa) I inevitably have a few days of pain relearning short cut keys.
Hosted k8s is a blessing for development teams. A great benefit is that integrating k8s into tools such as Github or Gitlab pipelines makes it a unified and easy deployment cycle. No more issues regarding different release procedures while someone is out of office.

I use screen time on my phone. I've intentionally limited my time on social media daily. Of course I can just disable it, but it takes intent to do it.

I also use MacOS/iOS focus modes and morning/afternoon/evening summaries pretty heavily to filter the notifications I get actively. Really looking forward to the new lockscreens on iOS16.
Completely agree. I find it nearly impossible to use without a significantly degraded browsing experience. I also thought of using a VPS but being the only person who would be using that static IP makes it harder anonymize traffic. You can’t hide behind the masses on a VPS VPN. One leak that has some piece of identifying information along with the VPS IP exposes you entirely.
It's time to stop reporting on the incessant stream of lies, trolling, and/or self-aggrandizement that Musk pumps through Twitter.

This isn't newsworthy, or at least it's not something that a layperson should credulously report.

It's unverifiable and almost certain untrue, exactly like the years of lying about the capabilities of "FSD" at Tesla, except this time it's Neuralink.

Thanks for your input here Drew, your actions and writings have been what has inspired me to call out such scenarios (Of non-OSD "Open Source" usage) when I see them.
I could do that, but it would not benefit me. It's not a defence mechanism, it's just being practical.
The two techniques, intensive or extensive reading, are valuable. Usually I lookup every word during the first few chapters of a book, to make sure I have a solid base for the story, then only lookup words that I've seen many times before.
Any decent k8s engineer worth his salt should find it pretty easy to navigate this, since how you deal with that is pretty standardised.

I've written custom operators and submitted upstream patches to existing-ones, it's not that hard once you know what you're dealing with conceptually.
It's funny that you word it like that. "Something that's more VN than RPG, but more RPG than VN" is exactly the game I'm making (it's called Firmament). I didn't find anything that was exactly what I wanted when building the game (there are Unity plugins for the dialogue system, but usually with tradeoffs that favored features I didn't want in the first place).

I ended up writing an engine to do this concurrently with the game itself. Here's a picture of a scene opened in the engine: https://i.imgur.com/jEhw1QR.png

Honestly, it depends. Essentially every German has a bank account backed debit card (not a CC!), except may the most poor (though I think there is a legal requirement for banks to offer basic accounts + debit cards for everyone). For me it's my preferred mode of payment since I got mine 18 or 19 years ago.

//edit: Cashless might imply debit card is accepted, but not necessarily credit cards. Though these are catching up.

For groceries at the usual chains (Edeka, Lidl, Aldi,...) cashless always works, and from my POV always did. For a while many stores only accepted cashless for sales above 10 Euros, but I only know one shop that still has that antique rule.
In the past paying by card was something you did for "bigger" expenses; I'm young enough to only have witnessed how that seems to have phased out, but I definitely got strange looks when I payed for an inexpensive item by card. These days most cashiers don't blink an eye when I do so for a <1 Euro item.

As a rule of thumb, the more expensive a place is and the less shady (as in "might cook the books" or "not a drinking hole"), the more likely it is to accept cashless. The "expensive" barrier is coming down ever since: 15 years ago I might have needed cash for a restaurant with the average dish costing 20 Euros, or going out with friends to drink. These days it's safe to assume "if customers are expected to sit down, and pay 10 Euro+, then cashless is probably accepted".
Exceptions apply, like that one, new (post-COVID!) restaurant, which insists on cash; and also I go to other places like I did two decades ago while being a pupil or student.

When I go out in our city (six digit populace) I usually assume that I can pay cashless, though if I know the next ATM to be unpleasently far away, I make sure that me or a companion has enough cash, just in case.
I still pack some cash when venturing into an unknown town/city.

Overall, I think due to COVID more cusomters now use the option to pay cashless; the only huge impact in acceptance (that I noticed) seems to have been bakeries around here.

It's important to remember that, while Germany is about the size of one of the US's states, it's much more densely populated and has vast differences in customs, traditions and subtile social norms like cash vs cashless.
I find it dubious that employees from FAANGs would use a third -party coding environment when most have stringent policies about intellectual property and data sharing. A sandbox app like this would have to go through security review to be approved for corporate use. If available, the company would prefer to just host the app on prems.

Therefore I'm really curious how the author can tell it's used by FAANG employees. Corporate emails?

China has a 12 GW 3,300 km (2,100 mi) HVDC transmission line in use for a couple of years now already. That covers South Australian climate to the polar circles.

That is of course on the extreme end, but as renewables and storage continue to drop in price the latitude of where it's easily possible will keep climbing towards the poles.

This is also why regions closer to the poles focuses on off-shore wind. It is the windiest regions and the windiest months are the winter months. Capacity factors of 60-64% are achieved with the latest 15 MW turbines.

Or maybe UK was completely incompetent in allocating 7 GW off-shore wind for £37.5/MWh in the latest CFD round finalized a couple of weeks ago?

I’m talking about masks not vaccines. There are also a lot of assumptions about who you think the people in the crowd are. You don’t know it’s a social event for the Q crowd. Why is it strange that people have different opinions, right or wrong? What’s perplexing is believing every single person should agree on something.

I find that reading books is a great way to pick up new words; it was quite useful to challenge myself and read while I was learning English.

I never really saw the need to look up words in a dictionary though, you just eventually learn what the words mean as they are repeated throughout the book in various contexts (most authors appear to like using the same words over ans over).
I think it's actually more valuable to learn like this since it develops your ability to infer meaning from the various bits of context that you have, as well as the grammar and word structure.

For example the guy looked up "stiffened". That's a fairly weird thing to look up, why didn't he look up "stiff"?
Show HN: Lightweight yet powerful IT automation tool
Automatdeck agent is a simple lightweight IT automation tool for your workflows, tickets and deployments which can be triggered on demand via REST API.

It allows you to manage your automation in a simple intuitive yet powerful configuration syntax which is quite similar to gitlab ci/cd or github actions.
Same here. `make test` beats `./gradlew clean test` in one project and `pytest -s ...` in another, etc.
Great points!

Now, I don't think that a hustle must necessarily equal "passive income." It can be a freelancing hustle, or a product hustle, or a SaaS hustle, but there's nothing passive about them.

It takes time to come up with an infoproduct, for example, and you've got to promote it, build your circle of followers, etc. And even if you do everything right, there's a huge amount of chance/luck. Your product might take off, or it might crater (or anywhere in between). Either way it's a lot of work.

Anyways, just my 2c, and good luck with your book!
From what I gather this can be abused to steal websites. Very cool concept though.
Not GP, but an idiosyncratic data model that reflects a non-reality really encumbers momentum by introducing integration friction, arguments on the “right” way forward and generally causes a lot of noise. It can also make the team look like bozos when explaining the model to outsiders.

Somewhat surprisingly, Linux support for Apple Silicon MacBooks seems to be shaping up to be better than that for pretty much any other laptop. The Asahi team don’t have support for everything yet (notably no GPU) but what they do have support for seems to be high quality, well integrated with Linux’s conventions, and upstreamed into the mainline kernel! How much other hardware can claim that?

The Asahi developers have also stated that Apple tends to keep hardware peripheral interfaces stable across generations (they speculate that this is to keep things easy for their own OS dev teams), and that this has so far proven to be true for M2 (and several iPhone generations before that), and thus once support is available , it should stay relevant for some time.

Given this, it seems like MacBooks could easily end up becoming the laptop of choice for Linux developers in the years to come.
The event horizon going away is entirely valid, the naked singularity is not. So the limit is rather in that we can't explain what would come out of it, rather that the event horizon can't go away.
Not really. You can't discuss Australian war crimes openly in the media - this will get you shut down quite rapidly.

Something most people don't understand is that Australias' sovereign, the Queen, is used to keep embarassing state secrets well and truly out of the public eye. This is an intolerable state of affairs that will hopefully get addressed when she dies, and the Australian Republic movement gets fresh air under its wings ..

Australia has secret prisons, and a star court for the things it doesn't want the world to know. Witness J, K, L, M, &etc.
I don't want to diss on the effort, I have an honest question: wouldn't this something that would be more appropriate to be done at the filesystem level?

Its extremely hard to identify bad middle management, as well as do anything about it. Unlike upper management, which is pretty mercenary and out for itself, and can be fired albeit with large golden parachutes, bad middle management is pretty opaque to top management. It is hard, by design, to figure out what outcome is a particular middle manager having on the company bottom or top line. There is vicious politics, and trying to trim it down can actually do more damage, at least in the short term, than leaving it in.

One issue is that make will default to only using one job (i.e. one cpu), and you need to pass `-j NUMBER` to make it use more, while Ninja is parallel by default.

For my uses, I've not found `ninja` to be much faster than `make -j8` on an 8-core machine.

Not that the defaults don't matter, of course.
The video in question uses a different (dictionary) definition of the term from the authors of the article. This is partly the justification for them declaring the video as false, and flagging it as potentially harmful misinformation. The overreaction alone is sufficient for me to question the website’s priorities.
Indeed there're some challenging packages that we've made great efforts to port, and those efforts mainly happened at upstream level: adding RISC-V support for ldc, for chromium V8 (rv64 & rv32, both as joint efforts, great thanks to my college luyahan), for lldb-server (WIP), and crystal (WIP), etc.

As soon as upstreams accept our PRs, all distros with RISC-V port can benifit from them, which IMO sounds like a better porting style than keeping a huge patch in downstream Arch-specific repo :-D

BTW we also have an CI/CD available for upstream opensource developers to monitor their builds: https://ci.rvperf.org
> What usually gets offered is pittances. A 10% raise to work 30% more hours.

At least in my instance, I've never seen the 10% raise, just the 30% more hours bit.
Yeah but your app doesn't have control over the filesystem. Usually an sqlite db is bundled with an application or created by it.

That said, it looks like you could get the same results by doing client side compression and decompression of data yourself, and storing compressed blobs in sqlite. It only compresses text column data, not entire pages.
Nice! And in this ideal world, we could also make steel tools in our decentralised garden furnaces. The steel industry costs the world billions of dollar currently, imagine if we could all make our own iron tools without paying for patents e.g. torx head screw drivers from our back yard! :^)

I understand the point you are making about areas that are far apart, but in some cases it really isn't local. The Colorado river is one good example.
Great idea. zfs can compress data on disk. But it's also useful to keep the data compressed in memory so you can fit more data in memory. There's a lot of cpu/memory tradeoffs so it's worth having the options to do it on the data.

It's also worth noting that compression on the application layer works way better on column stores than row stores.
I don't think these ads have any effect in the direction intended, but I do share the feeling of absurdity in that I only see these ads when watching a DVD that I've already purchased.

And how are you going to ensure that buyers are aware of those ongoing maintenance costs? In a free market builders are disincentivised to make such issues public. So I guess the only way to be sure is to create legislation forcing such detail to be exposed. But if you're going to do that, then why not just create legislation that solves the actual problem instead?
What confuses me with these reports is always on what they miss to say: here, they mention two turning points for metabolism (at 15 months and 60 years), and then constantly keep talking of having a stable metabolism from early adulthood to your 60s.

This suggests that kids from 15 months to early 20s have a slowing metabolism, but there is no hint about at what rate? Is it linear? Is there any sharp drop?

That might affect how we need to influence our kids' eating habits, and it seems under-researched (according to this article, at least).
The class action lawsuit revolves around a "violation of privacy".

I don't think that's the correct attack on Meta, as harm is hard to
demonstrate and privacy is hard to define.

What is really happening is much more dangerous. People are being
discouraged from seeking medical help because they fear that proper
confidentiality is not assured.

If a single person fears using an online health service because of
these big data corporations, and they fail to get a timely medical
diagnosis, then said companies harmed that person.

That's a real and tangible harm, and what's ultimately going to
happen here. The lawyers should change tack. Don't look for victims
who claim they "didn't know" Meta was tracking them. Find victims who
demonstrably did know, and acted in a negative way. Seek to find
evidence that the reasonable expectation of privacy being violated
caused someone to be denied healthcare access.

Targeted advertising based on grubbing around in people's personal data
is disgusting, and Meta and Google are likewise disgusting companies
that should not exist in a civilised society.

>But the fact is that rights not enumerated there are left up to the states to decide on. We may not like it but if we want to protect these basic rights we need to go through the established Democratic processes to update the US constitution.

The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people. - Ninth Amendment

Gay marriage, abortion and the right to bodily autonomy that underpin them are inalienable rights retained by the people, and states only have authority to regulate those rights with the consent of the people. This is not "left to the states" any more than any other unenumerated right is.

And note - gay marriage and abortion have majority support among the American populace, and in many states where they have currently been outlawed.

Calling for a Constitutional Amendment for this is a red herring, as rights do not have to be enumerated in the Constitution to exist. The Constitution doesn't even support the Supreme Court's right of judicial review.

I was hoping for something I could use to generate my docs, but this is so incredibly over-engineered it's comical to me. React components, MDX, TypeScript config files, CSS-in-JS? Do you really need all that to write docs?

I have my own little markdown-to-html static site generator that does nearly everything I would ever need, and it only uses a small library for conversion MD to html plus a custom, very simple templating language to do things like include other files or get a list of files in another dir so you can create a list of links... and that's it. You can probably write one yourself on a weekend. I will be sticking with my own, thanks.

I agree with you that Rust isn't a perfect match for video game development. Jonathan Blow's Jai is targeting that sort of program, it's not offering Rust's safety promises (Jon is confident this doesn't matter) but it can hardly be less safe than C++.

However, the purpose of unsafe is to mark code that does something which a human needs to check for correctness. We're not saying "This isn't OK" but "The compiler can't check this is OK, so a person needs to do so". If you write C++ today, all of your code is like that. I'd be astonished if more than a tiny proportion of the actual game code in a modern video game needed that treatment in Rust.

For example, Rust's approach to late initialization is std::mem::MaybeUninit<T>, a wrapper type which says to the compiler hey, I am not initialized yet, it's OK to write a T value into me, but you can't read my value until somebody says they're done initializing me. The "say you're done initializing" part is indeed unsafe, but that's a small part of the program. That intern writing a zone preview gadget? They don't need to be writing unsafe initialization code, when they try to access preview_zone.orb_color the compiler tells them this is MaybeUninit and so they can't read it. "Huh, apparently orb_color is MaybeUninit ?" "Oh, just show all the orbs in preview as orange, it'll be fine". You just avoided Undefined Behaviour and possibly a trip to the land of "But it works in debug builds".
So we can conclude, that the the big star of open source is not enforcing the child of open source :(
