Someone finds a marginal place to live, very few people live there. Improves the land somewhat. Later had complications and needs more treatment to ensure it's safe to live there. Dam breaks, a million people die.

Moral of the story, "Oops, this particular set of choices was a terrible idea, maybe we don't do that again".
Yep, very similar to the JVM. Also .net7 is releasing platform native aot exe compilation (for simple scenarios) so you don't have to run the full CLR & JIT saving lots of memory.

'Password too long'
That is an absurdly black-and-white view.
The problem is we're currently living in the opposite situation, one which is so normalized most people don't even realize it. We have entire cities built around and for cars instead of people, with public transportation treated as an afterthought and just walking to places not even considered as a possibility. I wouldn't want to force public transportation on people either, but pretending the alternative of forcing cars on everyone else is better, desirable or not current isn't productive.
Looks like a thick pocket operator. Hopefully they do get made and have some revisions, would be a cool option with some more modern features

Long since done.
Agree that this would be important except that there's basically ~no work being done on supersonic trans-Pacific flight. Boom's design doesn't have the range to operate trans-Pacific, and AFAIK there has never been any supersonic passenger aircraft (built or designed) that has had the range to pull it off.

I do agree though, LHR-JFK holds very little fascination for me. It's a relatively short flight with a lot of ground-side overhead time, so the benefits of Going Very Fast seem pretty minimal. The prospect of SFO-HND or LAX-ICN very fast though seems a lot more appealing.

> On an opposing note, updating my Arch system (pikaur -Syu) recently wanted to install Electron 20 and remove Electron 19,

Unaffiliated but "Cold Turkey" for Windows/MacOS.

They let you create a highly flexible schedule (e.g. lunch breaks), and even support Pomodoro Timers (e.g. 20 on, 20 off, etc). But the biggest feature is privacy respecting (i.e. non-cloud, non-sharing data with advertisers) and non-subscription. It is just an old-fashioned desktop application with several browser extensions.

They have some nice website lists to save initial setup time like "social media" or "shopping" that will nuke all the big names. But they support wild cards or even application specific blocks. HN isn't in the "social media" list by the way.

It is designed to be hard to bypass/disable/modify. Even how each individual block's settings are locked is very configurable, which is nice.

The UI does suffer from the "invisible button" trend, so you'll have to figure out that there are three buttons under each block none of which look like clickable buttons (schedule config, break config, and settings-lock config). Also, the "On" button enables/disables the SCHEDULE rather than the block itself. So if a block isn't working after scheduling making sure it is "On" too.

PS - No doubt I'll get crapped on by the "just self-control" crowd. I'd argue that if this problem was easily overcome, people wouldn't be making threads on the topic and continuing to have problems. I don't think application enforcement should be anyone's long term goal, I see it more like a Nicotine Patch, a temp middle-ground to help make achieving your goals easier.
I expect operators would arrange dedicated/express facilities for all the airport stuff to speed up the experience. Dedicated/priority check-in, security, immigration. What would be the icing on the cake is an express train from the airport to the city centre that runs every 10-20 minutes (for all passengers prepared to pay, not just supersonics).
This is more flexible than requiring workers be in an office.
I'm not sure this rises to abusive without radically changing standards.

Tracking time in front of your workstation has been a long-time metric (like before Feudalism), but if you want WFH, the corporate warlords still want to maintain that assurance.
This isn't really about de-extincting the thylacine or mammoth, of course. That's a great way for Colossal to sell it.

Mostly this is a foot in the door for doing the editing we will need to maintain ecosystems in the face of increasing global change.

As it stands today, you can mostly do whatever you want to a plant. Edit its genes, make a new strain, sell it to farmers. The whole Monsanto thing.

Animals are different. Legally and emotionally we're uncomfortable with introducing edited animals into the wild. That can't last.

As an example, lobsters and sea-turtles both face the threat of total extinction as a result of warming oceans. Lobsters don't ovulate when it's too warm, sea-turtles don't produce males. We have to be able to change that.

Some animals will need to be edited to survive. Evolution and selective breeding are much too slow and the food-chain is already getting pretty thin.

So if you use the reviving of an extinct animal as an excuse, now you have a population of animals you're trying to revive, instead of a population you might be "polluting" with edited genes.

You can prove the value of engineered animals and nobody's going to worry that your "mammoths" in the Arctic are somehow going to breed into the existing asiatic elephant population. Even more so with thylacines... they're not about to breed with dunnart rats.
Thank you! You gave me a lot to think about. Is there any chance we can connect (by email or zoom) to discuss this further? My work has brought me in contact with people ranging from economics (Thomas Greco) to politics (Andrew Yang, Forward Party, Noam Chomsky) to distributed systems (Leslie Lamport, Petary Maymounkov) to regulations (Sara Hanks) and so on. I'm constantly looking for what systems work best for certain things, how they work, etc. I'm often seen advocating for UBI and single payer health insurance, and collaborative open source movements instead of closed-source silos. My work is at the intersection of Web1 (publishing and speech) Web2 (collaboration and communication) and Web3 (transactions and governance) so naturally a lot of this comes up.

Example: https://community.qbix.com/t/freedom-of-speech-and-capitalis...

So I'd be very interested to hear and discuss your ideas about fostering a participatory economy that helps protect against the emergence of hierarchies and extraction of rent. How can we prevent people banding together and forming organizations that dominate others?

You can contact me through the email in my profile. Or is there a way I can contact you?
I think you misunderstood the comment you replied to. Their point wasn't that 12s to 9s is a negligible improvement generally. The point was that the improvement only applied to a tiny fraction of their users and it was still a bad experience, precisely because it was so far from 1s.

Frankly, I could imagine that for a lot of people that ship has sailed already. I wouldn't be surprised if the brain chemistry patterns were similar (enough) to substance addictions for a lot of heavy users, and afaik the only truly sustainable advice for addicts is to stay just stay clean (because addiction is strongly related to loss of self-control).

The question is whether the 'substantial harm' part of the definition of addiction is fulfilled, but that might mean that a lot of people are in an undesirable limbo where they can't control their consumption anymore but don't experience sufficiently intense negative consequences to warrant abstention.

So what, I likely had my Arch Linux for a decade as well. Just copying it to the new SSD every time I had a new device.

I even have 2 bootloader entries: for intel and for amd devices so I do not need to reconfigure anything. ARM devices such as PineBook or Olimex are a PITA, though. Never had patience with them.
In the GA segment, the Pipistrel Panthera is really interesting.

With the currently available conventional engine, it vastly outperforms the Cessnas and Cirruses, AFAICT.

So with the hybrid and pure electric options in development (these were planned from the start, so the plane is designed for them), it is still competitive.

I reinstalled Arch once since 2009, and it was to resolve a long-standing bug that I could not fix for the life of me. FWIW, it worked. (This was probably 6-ish years ago, I don't remember what the bug was.)

> 300 years

The people who lived through it later recounted that the arrival of railroads (1830-1850) brought the strongest and fastest changes in lifestyle and culture. The telegraph came along about the same time, so maybe that was just the shock wave of the tech onslaught. The ultimate dominance of tech should have been obvious when Abraham Lincoln started spending lots of time at the telegraph office to manage the war. But it has taken a long time to rout the resistance -- although I am now a dinosaur for not carrying a phone, in 1940, the top officers of the French military did not have phones on their desks. Nowadays, being within sight of one's phone produces enough distraction to amount to a small cognitive impairment. Nonetheless, the machines will win. Read Vonnegut's _Player_Piano_.
> Debian is considered stable because apart from security updates package versions are set in stone til the next release, so there won't be any surprises.

which is not what the rest of the world means by "stable" when talking about software, so there is in practice a lot of surprise for users coming to Debian when they hear "stable" thinking that it means "no bugs" when it actually means "no changes"
To everyone saying this will not work because it's more expensive... jets were more expensive than turboprops. And even though the former use more fuel, we prefer them.

The costs of flying an airplane isn't proportional to its fuel usage. The faster an aircraft is, the more flights it can perform per day.

The carbon emissions impact of flying a gas-guzzling supersonic aircraft aren't evident either. Of course, more gas is used per trip but fewer planes need to be manufactured. Since there is no supersonic business jet, it could also make sense for some people who used to fly private for the speed and convenience to reconsider as they may get faster to their destination by flying supersonic.
Just got a notice here in the US that Verizon is shutting down it's 3g network at the end of the year.
There is a world view that some would call the Machine World View. That things act upon each other, the system can be understood if all the ways things interact can be fully described, and that changes to the system involves acting upon parts of the system from the outside-in. The cybernetic bridge between biological and machine is still described in a form that is a Machine World View.

An alternate world view is the Living System, that living systems are alive, have intrinsic motivation, have an inner purpose and direction, capable of growing and regenerating without some extrinsic motivating force. A living system is complex, and its behavior cannot be fully described.

Taoism, and the related, and distinct, though adjacent _Chinese_ traditional medical arts take a holistic approach of a Living Systems World View.

That bit claiming the connection of martial arts to Taoism is a misunderstanding, even if we were to scope it to Chinese martial arts rather than any traditional martial art. There is a better connection to Chinese cultural ideal of gongfu, and martial arts as primarily a way of life and a discipline for body, mind, and spirit.
Agreed. Boom claims they will be "sustainable" because they are going to invent some kind of synthetic biofuel.

Wait, it looks like I either misremembered that claim, or they have backed away from it:

Color me skeptical. Making existing aviation more climate-friendly would be a much more worthy goal than this ridiculous supersonic vanity project.
If you value that over speed, why not take a oceanic cruiser? More lounges, more service, you can stretch your legs way more (or take a swim), better meals (and more of them)..

Its always a tradeoff of comfort vs speed.
Does it come with telemetry enabled by default[1] as the Microsoft binaries do? Or does the Ubuntu version either remove that code or make sure to set the DOTNET_CLI_TELEMETRY_OPTOUT environment variable everywhere?

I'm going to have to very kindly ask the Supabase devs to stop making such an appealing development platform as I don't have the time/energy to rewrite my existing web/apps.

But for real, congrats on this and it looks very nice. At this point I'm just waiting on a new project that would be a good fit so I can play with all of this. Keep up the great work!
The article is titled "for dev and prod" (emphasis on the latter), yet the very first suggestion is to bind-mount your source outside the container so you can mess with it at any time? How is this good advice for production?! (Update: this is indeed great advice for development, and it's actually in a sub-section dedicated to that! My bad.)

Update: reading comprehension, it's a thing! :) Thanks chrsig for pointing out that this is under an appropriate sub-heading. D'oh!

National origin is not changeable. National identity, I suppose.

If push came to shove I'd remove religion from any list of protected classes gladly.
I don't think a subset is a protected class. If you don't want to hire/promote/etc people from Oklahoma, that's not explicitly prohibited, because state origin isn't a protected class.

If you only hired/promoted/etc people from upper castes, that would be discrimination on national origin, because anyone who isn't from the historic India region wouldn't be eligible. But if you're promoting upper castes and not lower castes, and you promote people from outside the region, there's not a clear discrimination on national origin. I'm an outsider to the caste system, but I don't think caste is considered to be the same as race? Especially not in the US, where federal race has very limited categories {(select one: Hispanic/Latino, not Hispanic/Latino), (select at least one: American Indian/Alaska Native, Asian, Black/African American, Native Hawaiian/Other Pacific Islander, White)}.

Of course, IMHO, the underlying anti-discrimination intent is to treat people based on their skills and abilities etc, not based on the circumstances of their birth, and discriminating based on caste is clearly not within that intent.

You are missing the point. Lambda functions are made for tiny scripts or relaying events that barely need any debugging. Also, they are highly integrated with other cloud services so it doesn’t make much sense to bother about complex dev tools for them.
According to their propaganda, they are going to make jet transport cheaper AND faster AND greener.

I see no evidence that this is at all realistic, and a lot of evidence to the contrary.

Do they even have a story explaining how their new supersonic jet could possibly reduce costs?
Microsoft dropped support for IE in June 2022. https://caniuse.com/fetch shows that fetch() is now at 96.99% support for global users.

This isn’t about just any old political views, it’s about the right to marry the person you love. If you found out he was against interracial marriage, would we still be arguing this?

I think being against marriage equality makes Eich a bigot, plain and simple. I don’t spend my time going around trying to unmask bigots but he had the unfortunate luck to have his hateful views exposed. Not only was his previous donation exposed, he subsequently made it clear he still felt that way.
Thanks for the feedback. I am aware of the issue you mention. There is not much I can do about it though. On the positive side it's ok most of the time.
>Arch's main focus is on upholding a simple consistent architecture

I though it is all about doing it the upstream way.
Farmers often have very very old contracts with no lifetime. Currently there is no recourse, no way to either start charging them for water or to increase thier rates (as applicable).

Hence the example, growing extremely water inefficient crops like alfalfa.
While the other comments are useful (either use more technology or self control) I don’t have think they really address the actual problem.

Whenever I find myself doing this it’s always because I am avoiding something (either doing something or thinking about something).

Find out what those things are, and deal with them.
Well, "DEI" in the end is the neoliberalization of (the capitalist-corporate-compatible parts of) intersectionality, so it's not really surprising that something of significant value was lost in the appropriation.
We're in agreement then. My ideal world is one where we have cities designed for public transportation (including walking), which would eliminate or at the very least reduce the current problems those methods of transportation currently have for everyone, while the current system provides somewhat efficient transportation but only for those who can afford it. I think spending money and human resources into improving cars instead of public transportation just exacerbates that problem, so it just frustrates me on a personal level to see that this is the direction we're headed to.
While I think there are some solid points made here, overall this feels reductive and almost isolationist. In particular, strongly agree that many wings of mass media have become a core problem, both as a vector of control and fountain of propaganda not often subject to critical thought.

The reality is that we live in an ever more complex technological environment and the true failure is that we have resisted evolving our laws and moral structures to match. Privacy laws should have been implemented more than a decade ago in the US, and likely will not be for another decade. We've allowed tech organizations to create entirely new economies, fundamentally disrupt existing ones and twist the idea of the web being a series of connected nodes to a structural trap for our minds and the minds of our children.

Disconnecting fully and abandoning the systems we helped build will allow them to slide deeper and faster into the dystopia that many of us feel is already here. If we do not find a way alter the direction of this, no one will.

It's always been interesting to me that in most science fiction that I'd classify as anti-dystopian, the reasons societies become that way is not because of technology solely, but because those societies gradually (or suddenly) changed their fundamental outlook and perspective to be communal and inclusive instead of individualistic and exclusive. Star Trek is probably the standard bearer for this idea, but I think it's worth analyzing, because there's an argument that we'll collectively face the same challenge and it's not hard to imagine that we're staring at it now.
I'd call it more likely a form a neurosis than a cop-out.

It can be hard to resist some analysis paralysis when faced with an incredibly broad problem. There's a strong urge to find one solution to cover all cases. Trying to do everything at once being so overwhelming that it's impossible to get even started on it.

Of course, you're correct that the best thing to carve out the most common cases and then iterate. I've found that it takes time and experience to gain the wisdom to learn the perfect is the enemy of the good.
Not everything is corruption and cronyism.

There are cases where the one that gets the promotion it's the one that sells themselves the most, instead of the "overengineer".

Being assertive, going straight to the solution and inspiring security is something that boosts a developer's career a lot.

Some people mistake that being a good professional is saying "yes" to everything and putting endless extra hours behind the code. And often that isn't the case.
Likewise, I think my oldest install is a Void Linux system (another rolling release). Unfortunately, I have no clue how old it is; musl doesn't keep login records (wtmp?), and this install has lived through not merely multiple machines (moving hard drives from one box to another) but multiple filesystems (rsynced from I think ext4 to f2fs to zfs) and I think one of those jumps lost timestamps because the oldest time I can get is younger than I think the system is. Regardless, there's something special about that degree of continuity - at work, I like cattle, but at home I actually enjoy having a pet around.
