IBM was paying them to do it. The problem is you’re running in a separate set of processors… it’s almost like a blade chassis at this point. The cost structure didn’t work as if you’re doing anything significant you’re going to end up licensing more CPU time (yes, you need to buy access to the stuff you bought), and it cheaper to buy x86 and run Linux OR just rent VMs from Amazon.

I had to do a POC of this for an IBM app in 2008-9, as it was seen as a way to save on IBM software licensing. I killed the notion after spending 6 months getting stuff to work (ie the IBM boys and inwere the first idiots to try) when i borrowed from surplus PCs awaiting shredding and replicated the entire environment on 6 circa 2005 pentium whatever desktops (which I did during the week between Christmas and New Years). My little lab outperformed the mainframe by a factor of 5 for the task.

If these solutions were sold commercially, there must have been some German compliance requirement that led people to do it. Nobody would ever do this without getting directly compensated for “choosing” to do so.
What do you mean? Even if we ignore the "you are with us or with the terrorists" tone of your comment (that kind of prove my point) it still does not make sense. Where are the accusations of Russian bots/dinsfo on articles about American healthcare, or wealth inequality or gun violence in the US? Because those are also subjects that can be exploited by foreign powers in an effort to destabilize the US.

In fact, tons of europeans online love, love to highlight and amplify those exact issues, so I guess they are exploited by russian propaganda too? Or is it only europeans that get to use that as an excuse to deflect criticism and discussion about their internal issues?

> Muscle is not a reliable source of ascorbic acid, and we need it to manage correctly our urea metabolism.

Let's be clear, firstly... I think we should stick to talking about the skeletal muscle of animals that our ancestors primarily adapted towards, which would be large ruminants (aka red meat with legs). I can't comment on a hypothetical animal that lacks vitamin C in its tissue.

What you're saying simply isn't true. There is enough vitamin C in meat, and the idea that you need to eat liver to get enough of any vitamin is largely mythical. But let's stick with vitamin C.

The human body needs very little vitamin C, and orders of magnitude less so on a diet of meat. Vitamin C and glucose both depend on the insulin pathway to enter cells, thus they "compete" to do so. With even a modest amount of exogenous carbs, glucose out-competes vitamin C for update because it has a greater affinity for the GLUT-1 receptor. Thus, one would need a lot more vitamin C on such a diet. Without exogenous carbohydrates, skeletal muscle provides plenty of vitamin C.

We all know that hard tack was once a staple on sailing ships, and that those who subsisted on hard tack too long were prone to scurvy. What people either forget or weren't taught is that not all sailors were eating hard tack on any given ship; the captain and his officers were more likely to be eating dried or cured meat, meaning the prevalence of scurvy was far greater among the regular crewmen who were receiving the lesser food.

> Your bold claim that "Skeletal muscle from cattle alone has everything one needs to thrive" would led us directly to die by scurvy.

Completely false. It takes as little as a month to develop scurvy, yet there are many people who have been eating meat exclusively for years and none of them have scurvy. When should they expect to get scurvy? After a year? 5 years? 10 years? I myself have experience with this and, well, it's been far, far longer than a month... still no scurvy. I don't eat liver. Never have and have no desire to start doing so.

> Muscle is not a reliable source of ascorbic acid

Again, not correct. A meat based diet requires substantially less vitamin C.

> So we need to add a source of Vitamin C, that comes typically in fruits.

No, you don't need to add fruit if you're eating a diet solely of meat.

> Yes, can be found also in liver of some animals

Yet many carnivorous animals, including humans historically, don't bother with the liver under most circumstances. Liver can have benefits, but eating liver too often or in too great a quantity can lead to types of poisoning and electrolyte imbalance.

> but liver is not skeletal muscle, so your previous claim is incorrect.

Yeah, it's not, which is why carnivorous animals consume mostly skeletal muscle and don't just eat the liver, despite how some think that liver is a cornucopia of health. Liver is not a cure for anything, except perhaps carbohydrate-induced scurvy.

> so your previous claim is incorrect.

Not really. It's quite correct. You really should reevaluate your view of vitamin C in the human diet.
That's why you take Econ 102, which is an intro microeconomics course. It covers the different market types, like competitive, monopolistically competitive, duopolistic, and monopolistic, and it covers the concepts of positive and negative externalities, market failures, etc.

A lot of people here are acting like these are foreign concepts to an econ curriculum, when they're completely rudimentary. It's just ignorance.
It sounds wacky because they're framing it in the worst possible light to generate populist outrage and get more clicks.

The goal of raising interest rates is to contract the money supply because it would disincentivizing lending. Increasing unemployment is an unfortunate side effect, but clearly not their intention.
I'll say why I am. I don't even know what it's like to be under the influence of alcohol...and I love it. The type of social situations with a bunch of people laughing and tipsy is repulsive to me. I have been to a few such situations and it is universally a waste of time.

Sure, you can always find extremely constrained, embedded, or real-time safety-critical applications where only a carefully chosen subset of C is applicable. You shouldn't be using the sprawling C++20 there, either.

But for pretty much everything else (see the caveats in my comment above) you are better off, a lot better off, using Go.
I agree, that’s probably what will happen. It’s the natural progression of things and the boom/bust credit cycle speeds the process- a new field of technology, full of hungry competitors, eventually winnows down to a small number of large firms, who then usually proceed to fix prices to ensure permanent profits. Then you have to get government involved to make sure they don’t abuse their monopoly power, and the whole thing ends up being a government/private industry hybrid operation. At that point it’s a power struggle between popular power/democracy and private power/capital, which lately capital has been dominating, but that may reverse.

Libertarian supporters of capitalism look backward to the earlier phase of a lot of competing small firms innovating rapidly, in which government is more an impediment than anything else, and while that’s a great time to be in, it’s just a phase, and eventually the board clears and you end up with a small number or just one large firm that controls a whole industry, and popular movements or government is really the only check on their power.
Good for them; hope they are happy. Very much doubt that unfortunately. Something will take the place of drinks most likely. Hope it’s healthier but also doubt that.

You're hiring at a pittance rate and then when no one wants to work for your company throwing red flags in the interview stage, and rather then asking "should we offer more money" you turn around and go "guess no one wants to work!"

No. No one wants to work for you at the rate you're offering.
I’m asking because I, as a European, wonder how one country made of of many states manages to have no (recent) civil wars but somehow has a bunch of states that (apparently?) always run a definite and still have one currency union that hasn’t gone busy just yet.

If there are any good podcasts or blogs on this subject I would be very grateful for those.
I work for myself. One morning I woke up very hung over and wasn't able to get anything done. I stayed in bed until 2 PM. That pushed to stop for a month, and then I just stopped.
You have to remember that Canada is not a monolith. Quebec is rather nationalistic for historical reasons. In ways both productive and pathological IMO. I won’t get into it as an Anglo and immigrant but I encourage you to visit QC some time and steep yourself in the culture.

Montreal is an incredibly diverse city and then you have Levis across the river from Quebec City which is something like 90%+ white French Canadian.

A few of our recent far right terrorists (groups and individuals) came out of Quebec; the historical leftist nationalism associated with the FLQ in the 70s is not the only style anymore.

Not everyone that uses social media is a citizen of the USA. And, probably many more aren't even real people.

But, regardless, if you're a real citizen of the USA, you'd approach this as with everything first amendment related - you'd file a law suit showing that your rights were violated. Has anyone done this?

Question: Why has smoking all but been extinguished and is now viewed as gross and trashy (as it should), while alcohol has retained its glamour? Do governments need to start mandating pictures of people with alcohol poisoning on every bottle and can? Do restaurants need to start banning alcohol from their venues?

For anybody who didn't click through (yet) be aware, the headline here is ever so slightly misleading. This isn't about Justin Timberlake per-se. It's really about "network effects" in general with a somewhat specific focus on music and the entertainment industry in first part of the article. Then towards the end the discussion broadens out to touch on other things, including tech products.

What Great Things are you doing instead? I know it sounds nasty but so does your comment; what else that moves any needle but your own are you doing?
As cynical as that rhetoric is, it's not the problem.

The article answers the question quite convincingly, though it takes eight paragraphs to get there: government jobs don't pay well and governments[1] are very slow to adjust worker pay to market conditions. So no one wants to work these jobs because they're working better jobs elsewhere.

[1] Across the ideological spectrum. Sure, republicans might have a cynical reason to want to torpedo the government, but no bureaucrat wants to raise pay scales. It's all downsides from the perspective of middle management.
Quebec enacts many policies to protect their culture — french language requirements, banning religious symbols and clothing in certain places and jobs, etc — which make it harder for immigrants (and Canadians from other provinces) to integrate.

I don’t think Quebec is anti-immigration, but they expect immigrants to make more of an effort conforming to Quebec culture and identity than other Canadian provinces do.
> The problem is that it exposes exactly the rhetoric that people hate from Apple. […] It's about as asinine as when Nintendo

So, you admin Apple isn’t the only one. I think you can find examples from any company, especially the publicly traded ones.

Similarly, you’ll never hear a CEO say their new product is decent while the previous one was so-so. The new one always is better, and the old one doesn’t get mentioned, but is implied to be good.

> this is the sort of behavior that will be heavily scrutinized during antitrust hearings.

I doubt it. Even if Apple were exceptional in making this kind of statements, what’s anti-competitive in making them, or in making bad products?
But using exponential to mean a linear equation is all sorts of wrong, even in a colloquial sense.

I would understand a colloquial meaning of "exponential" as "it grows faster than linear". Wrong, but it makes informal sense. But using is as a synonym for linear makes no sense whatsoever.
“It’s on TV when the city is negotiating with the city manager to give them a 3 percent raise,” said National League of Cities CEO Clarence E. Anthony, describing a “fishbowl effect” that doesn’t exist for most private-employer wage negotiations. “People call in, saying, ‘Why do they deserve an increase? They’re public servants!’”

Governments have offered modest raises that (mostly) haven’t kept up with inflation. Meanwhile, they’ve devoted large chunks of their budget surpluses to tax cuts.

I dug up the lede from where it was buried.
Interesting. I would say I am an unusually creative person, and the one consistency is that I ignore routine tasks. I let the dishes pile up, I just throw my socks on the floor, etc. I am generally a bit messy and I literally procrastinate every possible routine thing and it gives me lots of time to actually create. Then when I'm in a slump I just do all that routine stuff.
>Assuming it is an aerboic work out, what's the difference if the watch tells you that it's 9.6k, 9.7k, or 9.8k?

If you're tracking incremental progress than such variability makes the data less useful. But that's why I prefer to use natural landmarks and a stopwatch - the smart watches I've used so far are off to the point where I don't trust them.

> Becoming more intentional about one’s relationship with alcohol can only ever be a good thing. “It’s a myth really that you are boring if you’re not drinking,” Misell says. “As anyone who’s ever been sober with a drunk friend will know that when people are drunk, that can be extremely boring too.”

Well, yes. I've been working in a bar (and in charge of it) and drunk people are really annoying.

I always used to drink myself too for that reason (well, also because I liked to), with specific limits because I still needed to maintain order. I found it's actually easier to maintain order while drinking a bit because the interaction with drunk people is more natural and smooth. If you're 'dry' you're too strict and only triggering them more. But maybe that's just me.

Mind you this was in the mid-90s when things weren't as strict as they are now. Our bar was a private club and pretty much a dive and we didn't obey any noise, closing hours, or maximum occupancy regulations either. If we had a big party I'd wear a police scanner sometimes to hear them coming so we could turn the music down :P

I find bars a bit boring in general these days. No smoking, grumpy security goons everywhere, strict opening hours and drinking limits. Not to mention the closing of bars for almost 2 years. I really do feel for the younger people now. Because back then the going out scene was really important in my life too and later in life these things are different.

What the article says about the price increase is a good point though. Our place was extremely cheap and even a round for the whole bar was usually in the range of 20 bucks. These days alcohol is a lot more expensive. However soft drinks are usually in the same price range as beer these days so I don't really see how that would stop people from drinking alcohol.

FWIW I had several periods in my life with extremely heavy party drinking but I've never got addicted. Every time I was able to just drop it when my circumstances changed and right now I drink only once a month or so. I don't regret those periods at all and I wouldn't have wanted to miss them. It did help me socialise and stretch my barriers which I really needed as an adolescent. Because I was a lot more shy than I really wanted to be. It was really an invaluable tool to get 'out of my shell'. Alcohol is not always a bad thing IMO.
Oh, c'mon. Everyone knows there's more depth to history than the common populist version. As a group, most humans fail miserably. At any time in history, this is is so. This doesn't mean individual's from any era have nothing to offer in terms of understanding ourselves. You might try broadening your reading list beyond the high school approved reading list.
From your first link:

"Nominal wage growth has been fast over the past year relative to the past few decades, but it has lagged far behind inflation, meaning that labor costs are dampening—not amplifying—price pressures"

This is not necessarily true since it doesn't take into account labor productivity. From the BLS:

"Unit labor costs in the nonfarm business sector increased 10.2 percent in the second quarter of 2022, reflecting a 5.7-percent increase in hourly compensation and a 4.1-percent decrease in productivity. Unit labor costs increased 9.3 percent over the last four quarters. This is the largest four-quarter increase in this measure since a 10.6-percent increase in the first quarter of 1982. BLS calculates unit labor costs as the ratio of hourly compensation to labor productivity. Increases in hourly compensation tend to increase unit labor costs and increases in productivity tend to reduce them."

From your second link:

"At the state level, we can do more and, frankly, we should have done it a long time ago. The 'Inflation Relief and Consumer Assistance Plan' (A.8481), which was introduced by Leader Barclay, would slash state sales tax for two years on everything from gas to groceries to utility bills. This would provide immediate and meaningful relief. The windfall in state sales tax revenue could easily be covered by surplus money from the federal government."

So during a period of inflation and rising interest rates, they are advocating fiscal stimulus financed by government debt. You think that is a good idea?

Even with version 1.18 the median is 3x slower than c++ in the benchmark game. And most of those programs don't even exercise the GC (other than binary trees benchmark). If you are targeting a quadcore arm embedded type thing with no gpu, go is going to take something that saturated one core, and make it saturate 3, if you are lucky enough it is easily parallelized. Even when a gpu is available, it often isn't a good fit to the problem.

I like go, I use it on occasion. If I stick to the simple stuff it is really easy to think about and if it is just a back end on a big server, why not. But that is a niche case for me. I usually prototype in matlab, then implement in c++, and yes, often cuda too, but I think saying that go is almost always a drop in for c++ is missing the vast majority of what c++ is used for. Go is not a systems language, it benchmarks slower than many vm lamguages like java and c#. It's gimmick is that it compiles really fast and is easy to reason about, so it is good for velocity. But it sacrifices a lot for that. FFI compatibility, and runtime speed foremost. Sometimes those things don't matter. But for systems programming, dsp, embedded, or AAA games they are deal breakers.

Before using nukes, there are warnings, this is the first stage. But as far as I can see, putin's regime is roughly getting the terrority it wants, so even with some setbacks, in theory there would be no rush with nukes.

Also, there are the new 300000 men and equipment plus the results of the fake referendums which will make those regions part of russia... for the russian government only, but putin's regime only needs that from a internal political point of view I guess.

If that goes this way, the aftermath would be heavy equipment on those new "boundaries", and "purging" all pro-ukrainian ukrainians from those regions. I guess the threat of nukes would become way more serious if putin's regime army cannot hold the boundaries it really wants (the take more, to get less in the end). In parallel, there is the setup of their mass surveillance systems there in order to conduct the pro-ukrainian ukrainians "purge", which would now be pro-ukrainian russians from the point of view of the russian gov.

Or putin's regime goals are completely different.

About the "newly fossil gas reserved discovered", I saw that, no idea if this is true, a colateral of the real reasons of this war, or part of the disinformation.
