Machine Learning Political Orders
It's staggering how the web is devolving into long forgotten shittiest practice. All that 'compute power' only to end up like this.
I've got a cablematters thunderbolt hub with two DP outputs connected to two LG monitors. They aren't exactly the same but it doesn't matter, as I'm using Xorg, which doesn't use EDID for layouts. It just uses the output names, which are DP-1, and DP-2, and sometimes the hub flips them. The only way I've found to "fix" this is to use Autorandr, which will update the layout based on the EDID, but the output names remain flipped. This is still an unsolved problem, because i3 uses the output name rather than physical position for where to put workspaces.

My other laptop doesn't have an nVidia GPU and runs Sway/Wayland, which doesn't seem to have this issue.

If anyone knows how to solve this I'd be eternally grateful. It's been driving me nuts for a year.

I had this feeling during my 20s, but now in my 30s I just relax and live my life without such thought. I have kids that add value to my life and I work as SRE on k8s clusters. Just relax and do whatever you want to do, even if you just do it for a few days, weeks or months, you gain experience that can be useful for all sorts of things. No need to become an absolute super nerd in just one tiny topic.

'Slower burn.' Russia dodges economic collapse but the decline has started
it is the WE that does not care for the works of an atheist because of the fundamental intelligence flaw. If YOU do, then by all means, sate your thirst for second-rate knowledge. I'd rather stand with the likes of Descartes and Leibnitz, minds vastly greater than any modern atheist's.

anyone who does not have and practice a standard code of morality does not earn my respect, and should not feel hurt if I don't read their books... I am free in my choice as are atheists. I simply said I don't read their books because they are not clever. They are welcome to say to same about me.

and I couldn't care less about the downvotes.

This is called "adaptive just intonation." Logic Pro X has this feature built in, using a particular algorithm called Hermode Tuning. It sounds great
Pretty much a anything that uses PanDoc under the hood can do the same thing. I for one would like to see someone extend the cmark C libraries to add some new extensions like admonitions, tabs, graphs (using YAML), etc. PanDoc is awesome but all those Haskell libraries can be quite bloated.

Ghostwriter can use multiple libraries and does essentially the same thing but doesn't rely on Electron.
I agree that it can be like this.

Acquiring expertise is like climbing a mountain. There are revelations in the process, and it is like reaching a beautiful vista and the joy of seeing things expansively, from a height.

I wish I could have this experience in other domains, and feel the constraint is just the physical and temporal bounds of life.

Still, I recognize it as a fantasy to want these things. It’s just simply not possible.

I also recognize that there is something to the Eastern ideas of awareness and consciousness and that you perhaps you don’t need to labor toward material expertise to experience life with expansive revelation?
Had to correct numbers:

Super-good BW-TV was 625 x 625 x 25 = 10 Mhz. The color-carrier was 4.3 Mhz. So if you did not want to see the color-shit on your BW-TV, you had adjust the focus so that less than 625 x (4.3e6/(625 x 625 x 25)) == 275 horizontal lines were visible. TVs did not had separate adjustement for vertical focus. So all you really had was 270x270 TV.

Except of course there never was 10Mhz TV-channels. It was below 8 Mhz, which was needed for full color. So there was moment of time, when we could enjoy 8Mhz black and white for a year. Almost 600 horizontal lines. And then they turned the color on and party was over.
Now I see why the Steam Deck have sold less despite the hype and boosting of the product in many tech circles compared to the Nintendo Switch.

This is also a testable claim! File formats and RPC do not seem that dissimilar to me, especially when using a fuzzer like aflplusplus, which will automatically build a symbol dictionary by pulling strings out of the binary, and perform some light symbolic transformation (laf-intel and cmplog), see https://lafintel.wordpress.com/2016/08/15/circumventing-fuzz...
> A lot of advanced digital synthesizers will carefully detune oscillators from each other so they aren't "perfectly in tune" in order to get thicker sounds

As noted in other comments, this also applies to singing and arbitrary pitch instruments, possibly at a subconscious level, and it has the opposite "mathematical" implication than you seem to think: any fixed tuning is a serious constraint that makes some chords sound wrong, and only being able to tune individual notes perfectly allows the introduction of aesthetically pleasing imperfections.
Depends what you mean by shills.

The parent comment suggests a progressively priced system that would presumably allow for cheap consumption of water at small quantities. I think the comments here discarding this idea by claiming price sensitivity doesn't exist for wealthy people are unimaginative.

I'm not totally sold on on the idea, but it is very possible to create a tiered pricing system that makes domestic water waste unsustainably expensive. The price required to deter consumption may be absurdly high, but demand elasticity will always exist at high enough prices.
My complaint isn't that it punishes the poor, it's that it doesn't deter the rich, who are - in the context of the article - the primary issue. I just invoked an old saying to draw attention to the disparity. A tiered pricing model would likely not change anything for the poor.

Agriculture and overuse of water is a different discussion that this restrictor does not presume to address.
My water district (in California), sent out mailers a few years ago explaining their new rate structure. They said people were "conserving too much" that the fees were not covering infrastructure maintenance costs. So, they lowered the price of water and set a base fee (charged whether you use any water or not) to $54/mo.
Because the problem hasn’t gotten bad enough. Once it does something will occur.
I don't see enough information in the article or GoDaddy statement saying the ask was to do it free of charge just they won't allow anyone else do the renewal.

As much as I dislike crypto-crap as the article points out ENS itself would handle this situation fine and GoDaddy reversing its position on this is pretty much the opposite of the argument for centralized services being better able to handle these scenarios.
I think that the parent post means to use the onboard controller as a CPU and the flash memory as virtual memory (with no ram) and mass storage. I don't think this is actually viable with sd cards but it might work with different memory formats.
They're obviously huge but if you looked at any small part of it you would find that it is quite simple. I don't mean the overall thing is simple, but nobody is designing the whole thing themselves.

In my experience an individual software component can be much more complex than a hardware component.

If you believe that and you're still an employee, what's holding you back from founding a company?

Moving from low-paying job A to high-paying job B not only benefits you, but causes average pay for A to increase and B to decrease, following a supply & demand curve. As more people switch from employee to founder, the value transfer and inequality you observe will decrease.
After doing some camping I started to see life differently. You need to choose carefully what you will carry in your backpack. Yes, we enjoy to do and learn a lot of things, but we need to prioritize what is the most important for us.
Nice overview of interesting bugs.

I used to have a ton of issues with my MacBook Pro and thunderbolt monitor. These issues persisted through different MacBooks and monitors (we used the monitors at work and it was a work machine so I had a few).

All of these issues finally went away after getting an M1 machine. Maybe a coincidence but fewer monitor connection bugs was one of the noticeable changes for me.

Based on the article it might also be because I switched to the apple pro display? Though I can’t remember what happened first.

Also off-topic, but this blog has beautiful style and typography.

Not in my experience. It's about avoiding bureaucracy.
Nope, it isn't the police or justice system's job. That's a corporation externalizing the cost of their customer service division onto the taxpayer. Australia for example spends millions of dollars on online safety enforcement because these tech companies refuse to hire real people to remove revenge porn, impersonation, and so on.
I don't think it does. Being an atheist, you display your fine intellect for all other readers to see. 2b is a logical outcome for me, and if you think sth is wrong with it, you are implying that an atheist reads scientific works that he does not understand! ...

I’ve been a long distance runner for 11 years now. I’ve been plagued with injuries, ebs and flows of progression and regression and the same attitude the author wrote about that matched his intense rides. It made me lose love for the sport running at a high heart rate every time.

I tried swapping to low heart rate training. There is a lot of research in this area. My dad (58) also started doing the same and can now run 7-8 miles without getting tired. It’s truly great to slow down. Not just physically, but mentally.
Up until the first attempt from Telefonica to buy PT’s share in Vivo, the government did have direct influence via a “golden share” left over from privatization. IIRC they (threatened to) use it to help PT’s management block the deal against the wishes of some shareholders (BES was one, I think). The golden share was already under scrutiny by EU regulators and was forfeited afterwards.

(There was a similar conflict some time before, when Sonae tried to buy PT outright, and I may be mixing up some of the details.)

The BES group bankruptcy is related to the later woes, but only incidentally. The charges against the ex-PM are, AFAIK, unrelated to any of this.

PT loaned 900M€ to BES Group which subsequently went bankrupt. PT had yearly profits of 700M€ so this wouldn’t be fatal. But they had to get a loan from its subsidiary Oi to meet cash flow and that shifted the balance of power. Suddenly, the tables had turned Oi owned PT.

Given Oi’s massive debt (15B€ IIRC), they proceeded to sell PT to Altice for 7B€, they raged through the company like a bull in a china shop, and the rest is history.
> Are international sanctions laws just? Should the US government have the right to bar other countries from transacting financially with the world?

North Korea happily transacts with China. It just can’t transact with us or with our friends. This makes sense given Pyongyang has credibly stated it would be happy to bomb us and our allies. If someone wants to work for our enemies, a few years in jail is–historically and compared to how other countries treat such people—quite light.
Yeah, I’d agree with you and say absolutely not.
Making Twitter safe will not make you safe. It would absolutely be great if Twitter could do more, but the true issue lies elsewhere.

Unless you recognize this, and accept that you don’t always get everything you want, then you may be living in a dangerous delusion.

You don’t want to leave Pakistan, and you also presumably don’t want to compromise your principles, and you also want to not be killed for your journalism… perhaps it is wise to consider whether you can realistically have all of these things you want, when the truth is you probably can’t.

All that being said, I don’t fault you for wanting Twitter to do more. But for your own well being you should not consider that the only angle you need to work on here.
Hopefully you don't have a flow restrictor on your heart!

The point of the laptop story was not to root out corruption, it was just to smear Biden. I've yet to see anything that indicates otherwise.

I've been consistent in stating that it was flat out corrupt intention by Hunter's board membership, but haven't seen anything compelling that indicates they got their money's worth. That is, no proof that Joe Biden participated in that corruption. If there was compelling proof many of his supporters would no longer support him (self included).

Of course there's plenty of corruption and the most blatant form of that is campaign financing -- legalized bribery. There's ways to change that but one side is fully opposed to it.
what an excellent reply. i’ve been working through a lot of these things in therapy, and hadn’t thought of wanting to be an expert as a potential masking of the litany of feelings you mentioned. and thanks for the podcast recommendation
Does anyone know what influences were taken from Oberon-2 in Odin?
I don't think any feature should be a mandatory part of a programming language, provided its reasons for not including it make sense. I'm fuzzy on Odin, if you showed me some Odin and some Hare I bet I couldn't tell them apart, but it kinda looks like a nice C with syntax inspiration from Go and (hence) Pascal.

A language like that, as long as the object code is correct, then hey, it's there for people who want it.

I think Zig, which I understand better but don't use, has a good reason for not building in RAII. Zig has a "no allocation without an allocator" rule, and what's easiest to describe as native valgrind. It also has comptime, and RAII loses some conceptual simplicity when you start doing transformations between what-you-see and what-you-get.

I think it's worth continuing to explore whether that's a sufficient approach to memory safety, rather than doing something which has already been done, prematurely. I happen to think it's a promising approach, favoring clarity and simplicity.

We'll see. Zig can always add RAII later, and so can Odin. But at most once each, so it pays not to be hasty.
You are correct. For instance, traditionally, in barbershop vocal music, singers are trained to deliberately deviate from 12 equal, towards an ever-shifting kind of just intonation, in order to maximize the extent to which the voices blend. Auto tune, on the other hand, just tunes things straight to 12 equal. Melodyne fares a little bit better in that it lets you tune to custom microtonal scales, or fudge things a little bit here and there, etc. Interestingly, Logic Pro X has a "Hermode Tuning algorithm" that will basically do the dynamic adjustment toward just intonation for you, but it only works for MIDI instruments and not auto tune as far as I know.
It's just sound weird to me because depending of who you ask, they will tell you generator fuzzers work the best. However defining what's a good benchmark and what to measure other than code coverage is even more complicated. But I guess we are talking about google they might have figured it out.
There's two categories of responses on this page:
1. people who have never ran a business and been fully transparent
2. people who've done it and recommend selective transparency because of the consequences

haha
Autotune software has different parameters available to it. These include pitch correction speed, how close a singer has to be to the note in order to start/stop pitch-correction, which pitches to correct for.

The T-Pain effect, which is the autotune sound you’re probably thinking of, cranks most of those parameters all the way up in order to get to that robot voice: “instantly lock the vocals to one of these set pitches, if the singer goes lower than X, immediately switch to the next lower pitch in the set.” More subtle usage makes for a performance that is more in tune overall but keeps much more of the vocalist’s expression and pitch variation intact. Its goal usually is to not be noticed.

I don’t think I understand your question (edit: about it being a bug), so I won’t attempt to answer it directly, but maybe the above info is helpful in thinking about it.

I only worked with old ARM chips and remember that the instruction endianness and the thumb mode were particularly nasty, so maybe this is the reason I didn't like it :)

But most other tools do need to support everything. E.g. the IAR debugger I used really didn't like the thumb mode. But somebody still had to implement it either way -- that time could have been spent on improving other parts of the debugger.
Twitter is being used by both sides to fight over a narrative. Nothing new in that respect.

It's a narrative that could get one side kidnapped, tortured, imprisoned for years and potentially killed.

I've seen previous incidents where Facebook and other platforms were nightmare fuel for locals and the platform didn't even have moderators who spoke the local language for purposes of reviewing the issue.

These platforms are thrilled to get millions of new users in various countries then wash their hands of the consequences to those users and their real lives. I don't think criticism of this fact is unreasonable. Locals just want a fair shake similar to what Westerners get in such cases.
In corpspeak of companies I've worked for, "this will cause confusion" is a codephrase for "we want to prevent someone complaining and making a fuss about shadier parts of our work".

It's the ultimate "let's hide this because we know people won't like it" phrase.
> when the punishment is money, it's only a punishment for the poor.

This is true, but only because the amount of fines are typically identical regardless of income/wealth. Fines should be based on a percentage of income/wealth. A poor person being fined $1000 may end up homeless as a result. For a rich person, $1000 would, at most, be annoying and depending on how rich, might not be noticed even as much as that same poor person accidentally dropping a penny and being unable to retrieve it. Fine the rich person a more equivalent $100K, $1M or $100M, and their compliance level would increase dramatically.

Fixed monetary fines brings to mind this quote:

“In its majestic equality, the law forbids rich and poor alike to sleep under bridges, beg in the streets and steal loaves of bread.” — Anatole France

> Sure, amazon does make it easy to return them, but going to a real store avoids it all-together.

Genuine question, what store is this that:

1) has inventory in store of items like this

2) doesn’t also ever have fake merchandise on their shelves

The problem isn’t just Amazon, Walmart, or other large online retailers, it’s issues throughout the supply chain because of the lack of enforcement by all actors (retailers, distributors, shippers, manufacturers, customs agents, government agencies, etc).
Unfortunately it hasn't been extended to differentiate dark from black. On my OLED screens I want #000 black, not some tinted gray—which actually looks very muddy and unnatural on my displays (which are never overly bright so the contrast helps too). My own userstyles go through to fix this on many websites.
If the intention of this idea is to allocate reasonable consumption to each person at low prices and quickly increase prices beyond that, then I don't think this wouldn't be a bad thing.

Tradeable quotas can be an effective way to protect a common resource.
"Both are growing at roughly 3 times the pace of California"

I'm sorry, where is that number coming from? 3x growth anywhere in the USA vs California would be majestically impressive!

I found:

Growth : (1yr, 3yr, 5yr)

Texas : 7.35%, 2.24%, 12.32%

California : 7.17%, 8.06%, 16.69%

Florida : 6.45%, 8.04%, 14.91%

Is the 3x growth in a different statistic?
