You the laborer have the capacity to decide where the value of your labor should be kept.

Whether some think it's leaky, or that it is a melting ice cube or ultrasound money is irrelevant. Despite or with support from opinions of others, it is ultimately you who makes the decision where to store your value.

Only time can say if you've made a good decision, as not one person can predict the future, and likewise you must suffer or enjoy the consequences of your decision.
This is not true. What the people who "lead the world" have in common most often is coming from a very privileged background. The idea that they are all iconoclasts or inherently in some way "better" than other people is a myth the wealthy tell themselves.

I use a window a bit bigger than a typical fiction paperback and a bit wider aspect ratio. I like a good bit of whitespace in the margin to help me concentrate. I don't want the text to feel crampt or my reading scanline to enter another window. After making the changes I zoom in (ctrl-mousewheel) until the text is roughly 20pt on a 34" screen (depends on the screen). The viewer might need to be restarted to sort out the layout changes.

This is what I have in my notes for the settings. Just a result of iterative poking until I like it so the css is uh... not fit for a code review :)

Saw an ad for True Classic shirts on FB and ordered some and really like them.

Same for my solo stove.

My first thought when asked if online ads work is “No. Of course not. I just ignore them.” But then I remembered these purchases.

In my (limited) experience I have seen very smart and talented people craft confusing agreements for these reasons:

_ They start with an agreement drafted by one person and then many people propose or insist on edits, but because the process is a negotiation the tendency is not to rewrite the agreement but instead to tack on language from another author in a way that is confusing. Sometimes you end up saying the same thing twice in slightly different ways because two people wanted to say the thing in two ways and you want to just move on in a negotiation.

_ You often work from a complicated agreement that has worked in the past and has all sorts of phrases and clauses from previous versions. People hate to change things and if they do make a change it is usually to add more.

Let me correct you on whole Zimbabwe point, the implication is oh the white farmers were so good and Mugabe ruined it by giving the land to the incompetent or uneducated locals and while there is some truth to that its definitely not the whole story. In truth the whites were stealing minerals and precious metals from the country on the cheap and laundering that money as farming proceeds giving the impression of this bread basket cause it was all funded by illicit funds. When they were kicked out they continued to steal these minerals through bribing the top officials but the only difference was there was no-longer an incentive to send the money back into Zimbabwe and hence the farming was no-longer supported by illicit funds and it collapsed.

tl:dr its easy to run a successful casino when you are funding it with drug money. Zimbabwe only ever had two options get robbed or get robbed, at least now the locals actually owned the land. The inflation was retaliation for standing up to the bullies!

It seems to me that sway is intended for power users, people who know exactly what is going on with their linux from boot to window manager, and thus have no difficulty configuring whatever they desire.

If sway adopts opinionated defaults it will mess with people who don't care for those defaults. Perhaps there is a way to do it such that opinionated defaults immediately turn off in the presence of configuration but as far as I can see there is no interest in this.
Well, it typically takes...I dunno, 2 to 5 years or so to make some substantial progress (with luck) I'd say, I wonder what could be accomplished in MUCH tighter time frames, even giving up some aspects.

Basically, it's one of those "what is possible?" questions.

One thing I've noticed with various different spiritual teachers is that it seems like a personality type match is highly beneficial - for example, Rupert never did much for me, whereas people like Ram Dass, Alan Watts, Terence McKenna, Jiddu Krishnamurti I can listen to for hours. I wonder if there's something that could be done about this as well.
>I just think they realize Figma is light years ahead

That's the problem - and what makes this a true silicon valley story. Big entrenched competitor buys innovative competition. Maybe they won't kill Figma, but they will definitely make it worse.

The current CEO of Adobe has been CEO since 2007 and has led their awful Creative Cloud strategy. There's no regime change here. I see people comparing this to Microsoft acquiring Github. Microsoft is both orders of magnitude larger than Adobe and they paid way less for Github. They can afford to have Github as a form of "soft power" in the developer space, supporting their cloud work/developer stuff but indirect to their core revenue and business without needing to monetize it directly. Their CEO wasn't a moron and understood intrinsically there'd be a lack of trust and a hands off approach was needed. I'd be really surprised if Adobe shows the same grace in this situation. Figma was a direct competitor of their core business.

I do think that comparing Adobe to Microsoft in general is reasonable though. They are both software companies that make terrible software and have little incentive to improve because of how entrenched they are in the market. I've always thought of Adobe as the Microsoft of creative software.
Anything based on agricultural production is going to be pretty volatile.
Thanks for clarifying with examples, y'all :)
I wasn't thinking concretely but on some vague principle. Now I see, of course, makes sense.
That's simply false. And you know that.

They've spent about 10.3 billion so far not all of which has been spent on the central valley section. And this spring they approved 4.2 billion to finish the initial section. So we're talking 13 billion for 100 miles. One tenth your claim.

Worse for the Nimby's and industry funded AstroTurf groups is the last court challenges have failed. And so the courts can no longer be used to slow things down either. All they can do is continue to pay for doom and gloom articles to be published.
We will not go down this path since everything is highly debatable but here is an article: https://preshing.com/20141202/cpp-has-become-more-pythonic/

I don't think that's even close to a given, but consider how much time and money it would take to fight that lawsuit — they would be loathe to settle since it'd validate the idea for other customers, and you'd have to put in that effort hoping that they wouldn't succeed in being able to say it was a misunderstanding on your part or some nebulous “bug” which has reportedly been fixed. Most people don't lose anywhere near enough money this way for it to be worth fighting, especially since a lot of businesses would be worried about potentially being demoted on Google Maps, search, etc.
They could have just said "For years, studies have found skin-color bias in common oxygen-measuring devices called pulse oximeters..."

It would have been factually accurate since it's skin color that's the issue.

Of course Arstechnica already knew that.

Look at the FDA documents linked in the article. The FDA says "The committee will discuss ongoing concerns that pulse oximeters may be less accurate in individuals with darker skin pigmentations."

It was never really about race, it was about skin color (the two are loosely associated), but Artechnica knows that "race" gets more clicks I assume.

I like to call these types of authors "racial carpetbaggers" - unscrupulous opportunists using race to further their own aims.
It's really not so bad. You use --genkey to generate a key, --import to import a key, --encrypt and --decrypt do what they say on the tin, --sign to sign messages, --recv-key can download a key from a keyserver and --verify to verify signatures. That's pretty much 99% of what I do with gpg! It behaves like a standard command line utility and can read from stdin and output to stdout if you need it to.

I hear that gpg is very difficult to use quite a lot but I have not had that experience at all. The flags are pretty self explanatory and the magpage(s) are very detailed!

There are also decent GUI interfaces that are extremely simple to operate! I would recommend "kleopatra" for most people! Emacs also works if you are into that!
Yeah, I have no problem with the rock-splitting scene. For me it's the boat to Valinor. Just that one boat trip already has at least half a dozen things wrong with it. A few I could have ignored, but it just keeps getting worse and worse.

There's still many great scenes too. I love Elrond's friendship with Durin, Durin & Disa's relationship, the Harfoots, the Orcs, how Numenor Looks, how everyone in Numenor looks, how their ships look. I even enjoy the spectacular action scenes with insane leaps by the elves. There's lots of good stuff in there, but it's all held together why really awkward plot twists that make no sense.

That's a simplifying assumption used to make the accounting practical.

But knowing that someone bought something on Amazon doesn't tell you how much the buyer would have paid or how low the seller would have been willing to go. (There are gains from trade and who gets them depends on negotiations and the competitive situation.) Also, one or even both of them may have made a mistake. People return things they purchased all the time, and they may regret purchases they don't return.

We are fortunate that for many kinds of goods, we usually don't have to pay the full value of what we buy, due to competition.
err, how is JS inadequate for that stuff? Python does not have fp16 support natively, neither does JS. It also doesn't have fp32, int64, int8, int32, uint32 etc. JavaScript does?

JavaScript is 43 times faster for this random workload:

bun bleh.ts 0.16s user 0.02s system 83% cpu 0.216 total
(env) bwasti@bwasti-mbp ~ % cat bleh.py
import random
v = [0 for i in range(1000000)]
for i in range(int(1e8)):
v[i % len(v)] += 1
(env) bwasti@bwasti-mbp ~ % cat bleh.ts
const v = new Float32Array(1000000)
for (let i = 0; i < 1e8; ++i) {
v[i % v.length] += 1
}

CPI is already a huge political football that does not accurate reflect inflation measures in core things that matter for most people, like a lot of housing costs.
The colors are just for style and a bit of usability. The color is determined by the first letter of the domain, for example here is the CSS for domains starting with 'w':

.comhead>a[href^="from?site=w"] {
color: #0098ce !important;
}

There is also a extra rule for Apple domains (domains ending with 'apple.com') that adds an apple icon to the left of the domain:

.comhead>a[href$="apple.com"]:before {
content: "---";
color: #ffffff00;
background: var(--mac-apple-icon) 0px;
}

> Running the X11 protocol over the network is usually not a good idea anymore.

It works well, though, and I'm not really interested in hearing that my own experience with it working well is a lie or some trick. Wayland gives up some things, and pretending that those things have no value isn't going to convince those of us who know they do.

Also, those of us who use non-mainstream window managers (such as Window Maker) are not interested in hearing that we should switch to some UI which doesn't support our workflow just because it's more fashionable these days.

There's a debate to be had here, and it needs to be had on the basis of facts, not lies.
If you declare just about everything to be a disaster then, yea, I agree the future will probably be full of disasters. But Blade Runner iirc is about people who seem normal but have some "bad" origin which makes them eligible for abusive treatment. We wouldn't do that today any worse than we already do, of course with foreigners/etc. but I'm assuming the doomsayers are worried about something worse than what we already widely do and accept.

> (As an aside: that's already abuse, so you apparently defending it, even if that wasn't your intent, should demonstrate why we may end up being awful to such life).

I gave the example of an artist who works for personal satisfaction. You call that abuse to have allowed that person to be born? I don't. If someone is intrinsically motivated to be a slave, then being a slave may not only be the best possible life them but could even be better than the life of a normal free person. If it's actually abusive like using human slaves, then people will see than just as we can see that today.

ScrollAnywhere. It's much better UX than even the best scroll wheels.
Not sure I follow, there are semaphores (sem_init(3)) and you get them via -pthread on my glibc system.

These are the semaphores I'm familiar with, which are plain counting semaphores you can also implement trivially using condition variables. The condition variable is a lower-level concept which pairs an OS-level signaling object and a mutex, it places no limits on what the condition may be, unlike a counting semaphore.

Personally I find it more odd that they'd bother with sem_t when they already have pthread_cond_t. Perhaps there's an optimization opportunity in sem_t when the condition is specialized to involving just an integer counter, justifying the specialized interface?

WRT waking the condition variable multiple times, properly handling spurious wakeups is kind of central to the proper use of them. That's why the condition test is always part of a loop, e.g.:

pthread_mutex_lock(&lock);
while (!condition_satisfied(shared_state))
pthread_cond_wait(&cond, &lock);

{ do things with condition satisfied and lock held }

I always found condition variables to be nicely composable and ergonomic when writing pthread programs in C. But they come up short when you start wanting a file descriptor event to trigger the condition wakeup. In that case you end up doing silly things like spawning a thread just for the purpose of monitoring for fd events and turning them into a pthread_cond_signal() on the appropriate pthread_cond_t. AIUI the Windows WaitForMultipleObjects() interface does this better, so I hear, but I've never really dealt with Windows.

It sounds like the vast majority of apps you use are very old. Even plain productivity apps benefit from GPU rendering. If they don't it's because those apps are far behind, compare to things like Electron apps where everything has been GPU accelerated for quite some time because of Skia.

I've been talking with some of the folks on the ROCm compiler team about this. It seems that each Navi 2x processor was assigned a unique architecture number just in case an incompatibility was discovered. Nobody I talked to knew of any actual incompatibilities, though nobody had done any comprehensive testing either.

You can tell HSA to pretend your GPU is Navi 21 by setting an environment variable:

export HSA_OVERRIDE_GFX_VERSION=10.3.0

This is not a configuration that has gone through any QA testing, so I couldn't in good conscience recommend buying a GPU to use in that way. However, if you already have a 6000 series desktop GPU and you always wanted to play around with PyTorch... maybe set that variable and give it a try.

> I'm not sure where the author gets this from, but it doesn't make sense.

It makes sense if you look at bitcoin like a speculative asset with a cash value, which is how most people who own bitcoin treat it. Bitcoin has a market cap based on its current exchange value, which is the "pot of money". As more people buy bitcoin, it's cash value goes up, and vice versa.

One can argue whether this adheres to the purist view of Nakamoto et al but this is simply how crypto is marketed to consumers, for better or worse. And in this system, the ways in which these various exchanges and defi platforms facilitate access to blockchain technology through cash transactions ultimately define its value, as we've seen these tokens plummet this year.

> Again, bitcoin transactions merely unlock and re-lock value as an atomic operation. What the author characterizes as "value" is an off-chain phenomenon.

People only care about bitcoin nowadays precisely because of what happens "off-chain". If 1 bitcoin was still a penny, nobody outside the crypto enthusiasts would care more than a decade into this experiment.
Isn't it fully explained by most of the money being from speculators whose thesis is "if crypto goes big these will be worth more!"?

If you add up the net worth of all the people who deeply understand how each coin works, you don't get anywhere near $500 billion.
