Disaster is a possibility - but note that your answer implies that the climate emergency isn't, you know, an emergency; since in emergencies corners are frequently cut and some chances taken. I'm wary too, but I'm convinced the emergency word isn't just puffery.
The thing is, the mass of advertising isn't about helping you know the unknown unknowns, it's about manipulating you into wanting things you know about, more, or wanting things you don't need / wouldn't really want in a fair evaluation.

The thing is, in our society, institutions mostly develop venues for advertising rather than for listing - since both the owners of the venue and the entities offering products/services have overarching profit motives, and advertising is more profitable.

It's too subtle a point. The argument here is not about logic, but about intellectual honesty.

The parent you replied to believes everybody else is unduly influenced by 'asshats' and that his/her favored influencers are not 'asshats.' As if Ezra Pound or Edmund Teller weren't 'asshats' for nuclear explosive mining, or fascism.

Dismissing advertisers for being into the 'filthy lucre?' So what should we do with all the engineers doing the same?

If I'm understanding baxtr's point, they're saying that the article is attempting to claim a trend without showing enough evidence to point to one. The fact that the competitors have gone from 0% to 25% within 5 years could be evidence that Google/Meta have growing threats, or it could be evidence that their competitors can't grab enough of the market to be sustainable so they die within 5 years, or that they're buying up all of the competition within 5 years of their launch. Google/Meta could have gone from 60% of the market to 75% of the market in the last five years.

So that's the case for the headline claim that they're "under attack" being linkbait. It isn't really affected by how you feel about the Economist's (or even less Der Spiegel's) brand.

This would be very easy for ISPs to set up on their leased routers. In fact until recently most people would have their email come from their ISP ! Some would also have a personal website space - mine is somehow still up 20 years later ! (At the time, routers wouldn't be common, especially not full-blown Linux computers, so it was all on ISP's servers.)

The only tricky part (which is perhaps even worse already with the "cloud"), is that some legislation is needed to simplify transfers (and not just the file ones) from one ISP to another, like we already have with phone numbers.

Most of the most successful corporations/businesses have vision/innovation to begin with, they do create useful things that people didn't know they wanted but once they see it they do.

After a while though, the business gets big enough that no new innovation can actually move the needle on the businesses revenues, the people at those companies who do have ideas are better off getting paid well for some period of time and then leaving to make it themselves.

That's the stage google is in more or less, innovation won't move their bottom line very much so they're trying to extract as much as possible from their existing businesses, which basically means as many ads as possible in as many places as possible.

I think the exact code for features in that diagram does fit in 5K lines of code. More specifically an entropy coder is less than 1K LoC, the modular mode and transform is probably 1.5K LoC, the entirety of VarDCT is probably 2K LoC. The problem is that JPEG XL has a lot of other features to make it viable as a long-term format, and I greatly underestimated that complexity at the beginning.

Not an expert but my guess is: A purely deductive approach to economics shouldn't work because economics is not mathematics. Austrian economics is an attempt to justify economic policies many would consider overly individualistic using pure deduction.

More than that, you can automatically mount whole block device (or file-as-device), even run integrity checks on it.

Those are common arguments for systemd, similarly to other batteries-included software.

Which is harder to achieve, but supposed to be nicer.

Fails to build from source with Rust 1.59 so I tried the C++ `c2clat` from elsewhere in the thread. Quite interesting on Alder Lake, because the quartet of Atom cores has uniform latency (they share an L2 cache and other resources) while the core-to-core latency of the Core side of the CPU varies. Note that the way these are logically numbers is 0,1 are SMT threads of the first core and so forth through 14-15. 16-19 are Atom cores with 1 thread each.

> Seconded, having to grab 9 crates just to get random numbers in rust is my least favorite thing about the language.

I've noticed that crates can often include default features I don't want or need. If you don't include the default features ('cargo add --no-default-features rand' is what I did) then the only other crate pulled in is rand_core. I've gotten into the habit of reviewing the features and only including the ones I need. I don't know if there's a better solution that could be implemented somewhere upstream but this works for me.

I recently tried switching to Linux with a few different distro's (Ubuntu, Elementary OS, etc.) and use Wayland.

The thing that sticks out like a sore thumb to me, and which I've been unable to solve, is that apparently it's not possible to configure trackpad scroll speed. At all.

From what I was able to gather, Wayland/libinput say they shouldn't be responsible for handling it and instead window managers should[0][1], meanwhile gnome says wayland/libinput should handle it[2] and ultimately - several years later - it's still not possible to in pretty much any Linux distro that uses Wayland(?)

When I switch to my Linux laptop to test things, my trackpad is bonkers and I have to move my finger in like 1mm increments because otherwise I'd scroll like 10 pages in Firefox. It's infuriatingly frustrating.

> How much does a resistive heating element and some connectors cost?

Probably 25 Euro, but that's not what anybody is paying for it. See the other comment, heated grips for a BMW motorbike cost 445 Euro and they only come in a nonsense-bundle to disguise the actual cost. What do you think will happen once cars are changing into "feature as a service"-platform? Enabling the car to have heated seats via a subscription will surely rise the base price more than 25 Euro.

"The X11 protocol was designed around running graphical apps across the network. While some people use this feature, it's far from common. Wayland drops this requirement as a way to greatly simplify its architecture."

X client and server are usually the same machine, but they don't have to be. While on the road, you can use your notebook to open a Gimp session on your home machine and edit an image stored there. That is, the Gimp runs on your home machine while your notebook has the GUI.

Including j40.h more than once does nothing. So it can only affect the preprocessing phase, but windows.h is multiple times larger than J40 (even after `#define WIN32_LEAN_AND_MEAN`) and if you can `#include <windows.h>` anywhere J40 can't be a real problem.

It allowed us to remove literally thousands of lines of code, including a bunch of rewritten init scripts, because apparently "simple" SysV scripts still have plenty of traps for the developers that start to rear their ugly heads when used with say Pacemaker.

I dislike its "let's just reinvent features that worked entirely fine" (like journalctl binary logs WITH NO FUCKING INDEXING, so they are slower than text files for usual operation somehow), but at its core competence it's extremely useful.

Totally agree with you about the emergency, but to believe that we can fix the climate crisis by throwing more speculative technology at the problem - with no real idea of what the unintended consequences will be - is total madness.

Not to mention the fact that no one person or nation has the right to experiment with everyone's existence just because they 'think' it will work. At least on paper. Meanwhile we could be working towards real solutions instead of this foolishness. Sorry, I get really annoyed with these idiots.
It's very clear that recommendation algorithms on Youtube, for example, are heavily biased in specific directions.

Indeed, the final result of the youtube recommender might well not be clear to the programmers even if they're satisfying their metric (it's been for a variety of ills, notably). But this is just a stronger argument for demanding explainability in this context.

That's literally the opposite of what it does. Palin should have dropped out, or her voters should have dishonestly ranked her second, so that the win would have gone to a Republican instead of a Democrat. IRV did not prevent Palin from acting as a spoiler and did not make it safe for voters to honestly rank the candidates.

But he is, Michael didn't have a choice. He had to defend his father by killing Zollozzo and McCluskey. And once Sunny was killed there was no one else to take over the family empire. The reason the family is in the business is in is because it's the only path Vito Corleon saw as a way to scape poverty and discriminations. Once the path was set by him, it's hard for the family to escape it. The predominate theme is Michael's desire to get out of the life of crime but not being able to do it. He gets blocked by the family's history and what others expect of the family business and its leader. The story is a tragedy, Vito is a great success in an area in society that no one outside the crime families respects. Imagine what he and his family could have been had he not been discriminated.
Palin is the spoiler in this election, taking away first-preference votes from Begich until Begich is eliminated, and then losing to Peltola.
