The isolation is horrible. All I can see is bickering between interest group/partisant politics when the solutions require neither or in fact require the best of both. Any sane person would agree with both sides but get rid of all the rent seeking. Hence you are now stuck in this position where you hate everyone for their horrible, pointless and counterproductive actions and love them for all the good ideas they have.

Because you aren't picking sides, you will be accused by every side to be siding with the "enemy".
I don't know what content you consume, but most commercial content I find is garbage, while non-commercial content shines because it's produced by someone who actually cares.
Curious if we've ever considered adding Markdown as a new MIME type that could be accepted directly by browsers (similar to text/plain). It could be nice to serve markdown without needing to even use a static-site generator (but still have the server reasonably render the doc, similar to a reader view).
Of those, I'd prefer semi-regular expressions (but personally currently lean towards irregular expressions). As they lose the nice properties, there's certainly nothing "super"-regular about them.
I think you can also request the terminal type and at some point you could also request the title of the window in some terminals. Which is why it’s not just annoying but also dangerous to output untrusted characters to the terminal without a filter.

If backside power requires say 10 more imaging steps, then for a given number of imaging machines you can produce fewer wafers per month.

If there is strong demand for the new process (which, since it'll be industry leading I'm sure there will be), you make more money if you can produce more wafers per month but missing a feature.

As demand reduces and more imaging machines get delivered, then it makes sense to add in backside power again.
Can't wait for people to run with this headline and write articles about how avoiding MSG makes you smarter or something.

Snark aside, I think while it's important to understand the chemical foundation for how certain brain processes or phenomena manifest, simplifying research results to news pieces like "chemical X is why you feel bad" is very evocative of the pre-modern "humors" approach to human health. Blood pressure too high? Just drain some blood.
From what I've read, the damage comes from jet lag and shifting schedules. If you have a stable sleep schedule and are exposed to light and noise and so on in the same way that regular people are, then your body won't (can't) know the difference.
First of all that "freedom" is a US constitutional thing, not defined anywhere else as such so maybe some expectations should be tuned down a bit. Secondly not even in the states does freedom of expression equate "freedom to do whatever and wherever I want" - try yelling nasty things at a biker gang and see where that gets you. But you know what is defined pretty much everywhere else? The right of property - which includes the right to ban from it whoever you feel like, without bothering even to give an explanation.
Yup, also my main reason for avoiding them.

Free-running sleep disorder in the extreme case of no sun and no concerted effort to entrain to sufficiently bright artificial light.

"Probably the best study to illustrate the effects of an unstructured life during the Antarctic winter is that of four Greenpeace volunteers over-wintering at Cape Evans Base 77°38′S in 1990 (Kennaway & Van Dorp, 1991). For the entire period of sundown (sun below the horizon for 126 d), all four (three men and one woman) showed free-running rhythms of all the variables studied: sleep, aMT6s, electrolytes, and cortisol. Each person free-ran with their own period initially, although two (a man and a woman) subsequently free-ran with the same period. With the return of the sun, all four resynchronized to the 24-h day."

This reminds me of a video I watched the other day about how nobody asks you to "share" anymore. In the early days of social networks every site and app had front page ad copy asking you to "share". Nowadays most don't even tell you what they are because it's assumed that you already know. And even those that try to explain themselves no longer talk about "sharing".
I looked at their site and I can see what you are talking about but at the same time their protocol doesn't really do anything for privacy.

Their idea of privacy is to remove headers from https but nothing stops a website tracking their ip or putting a unique id in the url or image filename.

That's not what their documentation says. It says that it uses a public gateway, and prompts the user asking if they would like to use a local gateway, at which point it will download go-ipfs and run that. That's a fairly smooth UX to get a local gateway running, but I wouldn't bet money on it being used by the majority. Most people take the path of least resistance, and it's up to projects like Brave or cURL to ensure that the path is safe, which in this case it is not for Brave.

It's surprising that when using the internet other computers you communicate with get your ip? You can opt out by going outside and not using the internet, or use tor if you want to hide your ip. Not understanding how tcp/ip works is not an excuse for accusing others.
> Do you also audit / control web browsers the clients are using?

Certain places do, actually. That's why lots of enterprise software was stuck having to support IE just a few years back (and probably still in some places that haven't caught up).

I've seen demands towards certain features working on Edge/Chrome in particular even if it would break something in Firefox, which might be preference of the end users but also corporate policy towards using known software in certain places.

I'm sure that you're still likely to run into plenty of environments where something like Edge might be the only allowed browser.

I think the problem is that they store «Your browsing history» as a holistic unit, which allows fingerprinting. A thought case: an actor could obtain their records, find your specific browsing history through the sites you visit (your fingerprint), and then also tie all your other searches to that. As a privacy focused search engine it’s concerning that they store individual search histories at all, even if not identifiable by IP.

I see, thanks.

The relevant trait of open source seems to be that the authors are readily identifiable. The US OFAC decided to sanction Tornado Cash for reasons that have nothing to do with open source, and then (probably) used open source to find the most important maintainer, and sanctioned him personally.

Finding the most important maintainer of a closed-source web service shouldn't be impossible, but open source clearly makes it simpler: No subpoena required.

In my experience Windows installs all the bloatware after first Internet connection anyway.

I usually set up my Windows the following way:

1. Offline install.
2. Turn on Internet and leave it alone for a hour or two. It'll install all drivers from Microsoft and also it'll install bloatware.
3. Install additional drivers if needed. I install Nvidia ones because Microsoft drivers are not up to date, but that's optional.
4. Go to Settings/Apps and remove all bloatware and other bundled software I don't need.

That's quite a procedure, but it allows me to have more or less stable and debloated system.

With some laptops it might be necessary to use manufacturer-provided drivers instead of Microsoft ones. I don't really know what's the rule of thumb here.
I think it will do better than just stand. In recent years there's been remarkable progress in low-pause garbage collectors, and ahead-of-time compilation. I'm not sure about the status of the RISC-V port, but that is (or will be) another nice addition.
The GP meant features. Office Mac is missing a great deal of them, like all the Power*/DAX functionality. And even if it has them, they might be half-baked; just to connect to pgsql, you need a paid odbc driver that costs about the half the price of the Office, you cannot use the open source one.
Australia has had a thing against Google.

In Australia, News Corp (Rubert Murdoch) dominates the media landscape.[0] They have the power to dictate who wins elections and who loses. Thus, politicians bend to News Corp will.

One of the results of this dynamic is that politicians forced Google to start paying News Corp to show news links in Google News in Australia but not anywhere else in the world.[1]

Absolutely correct. And frankly I don't understand the hate people have against Java. Especially the new generation developers. Maybe the language part only. But have seen much hate towards JVM too.

With projects like loom, valhalla, graalVM, JVM/Java is everything a modern language/runtime needs, plus a lot lot more.

I frankly believe the only other commercially viable language that has similar philosophy to JVM development, is Rust.

Opinions?

The Big Bang didn't happen
I myself did not know any amateur radio operator but read about it on the internet. I then did some research on what is needed to get on air - which is a license. Without a license, you can buy gear and listen to the airwaves (but are not allowed to press the PTT button) or listen to shortwave communications via WebSDR. Some people visit local amateur radio clubs, learn stuff there and get help. I went the following route:

* I decided that I want to get the beginner license first, then do a second exam for the big license

* bought some books for exam preparation

* bought a cheap 30€ handheld radio to listen to local repeater traffic while studying

* downloaded an exam preparation training tool

* worked through the material halfway through

* have registered for an exam

* stood up every morning at 5 and learned 2h before the family woke up for two months

* did the exam, got the beginner license

* studied another two months

* got the big license

* met other amateur radio operators a year after that ;)

Here are some links:

* this is the site of your country's club: https://rsgb.org/main/clubs/club-finder/

* the amateur radio subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/amateurradio/

There is so much more to write and I don't know where to start, but here are some fun facts:

* you don't have to learn morse code anymore for the license in most countries

* for local communicaiton, a budget of 30-100€ is sufficient

* for world wide shortwave communication, a budget of 400 to 700 can be sufficient when buying used

* you can do digi modes (computer to computer communication) instead of talking to people. This helped me the first year to get into it since i was mic shy.

* the community is awesome, people share their knowledge and help each other

* you can buy a digital handheld radio for around 200€ and work the world without any antennas over the internet. For some not the real thing, for others a blast.

Your comment made me look at the article. I saw this line

> Can we somehow not require the user to specify the size of the pollset in advance?

The answer for gnu99 is yes.

// will barf if fed a pointer
#define sizeof_array(arr) \
(sizeof(arr) / sizeof((arr)[0]) \
+ sizeof(typeof(int[1 - 2 * \
!!__builtin_types_compatible_p(typeof(arr), \
typeof(&arr[0]))])) * 0)

typedef struct
{
int x, y;
} Foo;

Foo foo[] =
{
{ .x = 10, .y = 20},
{ .x = 11, .y = 23}
};

foo_cnt = sizeof_array(foo); // foo_cnt == 2

One of the reasons why I think the C standards committee needs to be fired is because sizeof_array should have been made part of the language 20 years ago.
> which was just a ripoff of the stuff at Xerox PARC

It was not a ripoff. They had a license agreement and a whole bunch of people went from PARC (where they felt they had amazing technologies but could not do much with them because Xerox did not care) to Apple (where they could actually put a lot of ideas in practice).

> That is where things really went from zero to one, on a lot of things.

Some things. Others did not exist at the time and there have been a lot of improvements since then. Things done at PARC also depended on a lot of groundwork done by people like Turing and in places like the Bell Labs. Yet we don’t argue that Babbage was the real revolution and nothing of note happened since then.
