Idk, I've been using Linux and Mac since the early 00s, and I've recently been running into a bunch of mysterious issues accessing SMB shares from a Windows 11 server.

I have docker clients on the linux boxes that use the samba share for storage. Eventually I figured out that didn't work well with sqlite files, so I mapped those to local folders instead. But there are still issues with permissions when the linux clients reboot. I usually have to shut down docker, unmount the share, and re-mount with `sudo mount -a`.

Fwiw, this is my fstab line below. I think the network is up when the fstab gets mounted, because there are files visible in the /media/data tree - it just sometimes needs to be unmounted and remounted for everything to work correctly. Haven't found anything in the logs.

//server/data /media/data cifs
nofail,rw,vers=3.0,credentials=/path/to/smbcredentials,uid=1000,gid=1000

I don't know as much about Windows, and the Windows server is not mine, otherwise I would get rid of that junk.
The thing is, I think you have the causality wrong. I lived in Japan and I can’t remember anyone being shamed for anything. I think individuals feel shame if they break societal norms because they value cohesion over individualism. They don’t value cohesion over individualism because they will be shamed if they step out of line. That’s a key difference, because there are many people these days who are, for various reasons, effectively beyond shame. Simply attempting to shame people for their actions won’t improve outcomes because the same people causing the issue likely don’t care enough to feel shame.

Ultimately the difference is that American society is one in which individualism is prized over all. The greatest evils are those that would in any way infringe on something that could be considered a personal liberty. And it’s only gotten worse in the last 50 years. I can’t imagine modern American society rising to meet any major challenge of the last 100 years the way we have in the past.

> What is this mutually shared meme-delusion that Gimp is anywhere close to an adequate facsimile of Photoshop?

It’s not a facsimile of Photoshop but it serves the same purpose.

In my experience the people who come to GIMP expecting it to work exactly like Photoshop are the ones who are disappointed, because it’s not Photoshop. But if you use it and don’t expect to already know how to use it because you know Photoshop, it’s fine.
Just stating the fact. I'm fine with that. I still appreciate the effort.

This is ridiculous.

1. Pseudocode should be typeable in an email.

2. You should be able to write pseudocode on a whiteboard without worrying about syntax.

3. Pseudocode should be loose enough that it suggests a domain-specific language that it might inspire.

4. If your pseudocode requires a mechanism for comments, you’ve lost the plot. In their example, they comment ‘v1’ as ‘variable holding candidate 1’s tally’. Then name it that! ‘tally_can1’ would be much better.
So, GIMP gets CMYK support, a basic image processing feature, 24 years after it launched, and meanwhile there's this other front-page thread [0] in which the author argues that GIMP is a competitor to Photoshop. What a joke.

It is very very very easy to blame the people at the time for creating a system that explicitly oppressed a large portion of the population based on the color of their skin in order to uphold the disgusting and evil ideals of white supremacy.

And you are correct - white people aren't allowed to "protect themselves" by engaging in mass murder, organized oppression, and social violence against black people. Apartheid was and is evil.
> it covers time, but not adoption.

And you can't really cover "time" in an objective way before first determining some reasonable threshold for adoption, which is about as hard to objectively define as it gets. This means all the data presented in this article is basically meaningless.

For example, _way_ before Github we already had open source code hosting & collaboration servers. Trac comes to mind, but there's an even better example -- Gitorious, which also came before Github. Why did the author not even consider these two examples and only named Gitlab es the "replacement" for Github ? I could understand the omission of Trac since perhaps it was not primarily Git-based, but Gitorious? Gitorious was even at one point the #1 Git platform, eventually surpassed in popularity by Github (and much, much later by Gitlab).

Is this a "proprietary alternative replacing a open source one" ? How do you even take this into account in your "Time until OSS alternative" metric ? It just shows how meaningless this all is without a subjective definition of "alternative" or "replacement". There is no way to present this objectively as the authors are trying to do. The entire data set is manipulated to fit their point.

The rest of "replacements" are similarly questionable or even ridiculous, because, depending on your definition, they either ignore alternatives that came much earlier (because surprisingly frequently a proprietary "service" replaces a popular open source program) or call a service "an alternative" when it is simply not.
The anecdotes still don't add any useful information, because there is no reliability on their representativeness of the overall data, by the very definition of anecdote.

Just a note that Portugal Telecom wasn't state owned anymore when those deals happened.

The privately-owned PT was looking for places where to invest the money they got from selling their previous position in brazilian Vivo to Telefonica (a sale they tried to avoid once before but couldn't avoid the second time around due to the amount involved) and were then pressured by the government to reinvest also in Brazil, which they did by buying the heavily-indebted Oi.

I moved away from Namecheap because they threaten to deactivate one of my domains within 24 hours after receiving a fabricated abuse complaint from a reputation management company. I saw from my logs that Namecheap did not even visit the page in question. I couldn't trust Namecheap after that and moved to Porkbun. I can't say with any certainty Porkbun would handle that situation any better. But I like the fact that if they try to pull some Google-esque automated ban, I can drive to their HQ.
AGPL requires making 'full' source of a network service available to network users. Doubtful Schwab would do that.
Schools in America do the same. The issue is that outside of school, the lessons being taught by society are the exact opposite. It’s all about individualism and maximizing utility for one’s self while minimizing what one puts into society.

Relying on our schools will educate us out of the problem won’t work. We have too many narcissists and sociopaths in our society, and we spend too much time catering to and rewarding them.
> No credible news source any longer disputes that it was indeed Hunter Biden's laptop. Does this change your opinion of anything?

It's already my opinion that the laptop could have belonged to Hunter at some point (no clear evidence on how it was lost-perhaps stolen). We know it was accessed and modified many times by many people, though. We also know there's no evidence of any malfeasance on Joe Biden's part.

Given that, what opinion have I claimed in here that you think I should change?

Does the following affect your opinion at all? These are some links/quotes that have been posted in other places under this article:

"An analysis by Distributed Denial of Secrets of 128,755 emails allegedly copied from the laptop and circulated by allies and former staff of President Donald Trump showed "signs of tampering" including 145 modification dates and emails created more than a year after Hunter Biden allegedly had the laptop."

https://ddosecrets.com/wiki/Hunter_Biden_emails#Timeline
https://ddosecrets.substack.com/p/release-hunter-biden-email...

The guy who found the laptop says that claims being made do not match what he saw on the laptop, and it is known that the data has changed hands and been modified multiple times post any Hunter connection:

https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/04/12/now-warni...

“[An expert] also found records on the drive that indicated someone may have accessed the drive from a West Coast location in October 2020, little more than a week after the first New York Post stories on Hunter Biden’s laptop appeared.”

“Over the next few days, somebody created three additional folders on the drive, titled, ‘Mail,' ‘Salacious Pics Package’ and ‘Big Guy File’ — an apparent reference to Joe Biden.”
...
In other words, Mac Isaac [note: the guy who was given the laptop] says that he has seen claims about what the laptop contains that don’t actually reflect what he saw on the laptop at the outset.

Additionally, I think folks are losing the forest for the trees: the entire point of this smear campaign is to allege Joe Biden improperly leaned on Ukraine to fire a prosecutor. That is ridiculous on its face as it is well known that the prosecutor in question was corrupt, and it was US policy–not Biden's, but Obama's–to convince Ukraine to fire him. This was a multinational effort btw, not just the US. Do you feel like Biden was wrong to get the guy fired?

This is just how many "writers" make their revenue. Selling adspace and giving tips to lure people to become just like them. It's just a scam the advice here like in many other places is generic and copy and paste and if you aren't a writer who's part of the more private programs you won't notice the difference besides maybe some fundamental basics you can learn at the college level for 20-40k a year. Invitation to these programs are rare and with D&I programs which I was part of the likelihood of the average American joining this program unless their family was already associated with it in varying degrees is zero. Many of the people I learned from have stopped doing it simply because of this. And only talk about it on chance and opportunity, but not really you shouldn't expect a blind monk to guide you. It's a huge time sink that nobody will want to do for free. Which these programs were and are almost never offered.

Realistically the only way to get better at writing is just pure luck in getting into the right groups of people and even then those groups don't really understand it either. Often they come up with meaningless phrases such as writer's block which don't really exist and are rather signs of burnout. But yeah, don't listen to people like this, they tend to use their backgrounds to make false claims using survivorship bias to back it up. Realistically all the best writers I met in my life have only actually sat down to write for maybe 2-3 hours at most at a time of which they aren't even writing for. Like anything writing is a skill which requires mastery that most people do not have the privilege or opportunity to learn. And even those with money and time can still never learn how it works.

Cockroachdb uses the BSL which means you can't host it as a service for others. It's more of a "source available" license (that eventually converts to Apache, after a few years).
Hi, I'm the author of the blog post. I said that 5-limit is the basis for systems like meantone, which is true. Meantone systems take 5-limit as their starting point and then modify it. I deliberately skated over the specifics of how meantone works on purpose, because I have too much experience watching my students' eyes glaze over when I talk about this kind of thing. I'm trying to strike a balance between giving correct information and not turning people away.
I understand whis is pretty much WIP, but still, it's too unorganized to be anything useful. I thought the most interesting to be features page[1], which is nearly empty, and this effort in taxonomy is rather too complicated to be crowd-sourced without supervision. For example, let's take a look at traits[2] and mixins[3]. There are a couple of issues here. First off, why it's 2 different pages? There's no real difference between a trait in PHP, and mixin in… well, no languages except for Racket actually have a syntactic construct called "mixin", but I guess modules in Ruby or Julia are close enough. Scala also has something that's called "traits", and it's also basically the same thing, but with caveats.

On the other hand, D has both "mixins" and "traits", but these are completely different features, and these "traits" have nothing to do with traits in Scala or PHP. So if somebody were to make a comprehensive list of features of D in this DB, should these "traits" appear on the same page as PHP and Scala traits (which are mixins)?

Furthermore, unlike PHP, Scala, Ruby or Julia — Python's "mixins" aren't just mixins with a different name. It's not even clear if it has mixins at all. There's something people call a "mixin" in Python, but these are just classes, so you cannot really say "yes". However, Python has multiple inheritance, which makes "mixins" borderline pointless: classes are (or can be used as) mixins, if you have multiple inheritance! Templates in some languages can be used this way as well.

Which brings us to the next issue — it's not clear, if a language should be marked as having a feature if it comes built-in, explicitly, or if a feature can be implemented in it. Does every language have a semaphore? I cannot remember any where it couldn't be implemented (that would be weird), but I cannot remember any where it's an explicit feature construct either (well, arguably, maybe some SQL-extensions?).

All this isn't to say that the current list is bad. All the questions above can be answered in any way, and it's up to a "researcher" which definition to use in order to actually get a useful taxonomy. It's a non-trivial job.

> We should rather tear down the awful system instead of playing whack-a-mole with academia's newest outcropping.

There isn’t one “system” that can be torn down and replaced. A lot of these papers are coming from groups and institutions in foreign countries that are basically trying to role-play as researchers so they can blend in with actual researchers and try to reap the reputation and career rewards.

It’s not really centralized. This is akin to suggesting that we need to tear down the entire “e-mail system” because spammers are abusing it to send spam appearing as legitimate email.

Why is it a problem? Because these contribute nothing but noise and confusion to the field and make it more difficult for actual researchers to sort through real research. There is no reason to forgive these faux-researchers for trying to extract money and prestige from a system without making actual contributions.

The idea to “tear down the system” doesn’t even make sense unless you propose something different. Are you suggesting we stop rewarding anyone in any way for research? That would remove the incentives, but now we have a problem that research isn’t rewarded at all and real researchers won’t do it because they need to eat.

>Unless one doesn't consider writing compilers, linkers, GPU debuggers, container management, syscall emulators, unikernels [to be] systems programming.

Since you can write the above with any language, perhaps even Python or Lua if you wanted to, it's not exactly the ability to write the above or the fact of having written the above in a language, that makes a language to be considered a "systems programming language".

In some way, what is called a systems languge it's not a technical capacity thing ("can do X, Y and Z, so it's a systems language").

It's a term applied deliberately, that also includes other aspects.
Being able to open a PR and getting accepted to be merged are 2 totally different things.

IMO, one of the core reasons why UI/UX in open source applications (that aren't backed or actively contributed by dedicated staff in big companies that keeps them on a salary for the sole purpose of contributing) is because it's more widely accepted for programmers to contribute to open source than UI/UX designers.

In this case the best one can do is design mockups, but then who implements it? Who even has to be convinced that the mockup is a step forward or backwards, the moment every design decision is treated as having the same value as the next one, on the grounds of "it's just an opinion"?

My point is, we don't lack programmers/developers we lack UI/UX people willing to contribute, and we also lack the former to actually listen to what they have these people to say instead of dismissing their suggestions as "not data driven enough", "too opinionated" etc.
I don’t think the problem is money. I think it’s losing users to people who roll out the algorithm.
