> There is not such thing as hypercarnivore humans that eat only meat and water.

Rubbish. I'm not trying to be rude. This is an ignorant idea that needs to stop being parroted. Plenty of people can and do subsist on meat and water. Skeletal muscle from cattle alone has everything one needs to thrive. A normal and healthy human can eat nothing but meat (possibly not even water directly) and remain healthy.

Go talk to some "carnivores." Yes, there are crazies as there are with every single group of humans, including vegans. You will find that there are individuals who have eaten solely meat for years and have not suffered a single issue that most non-carnivores believe will happen.
Once you learn that sovereign immunity exists, it makes you think differently about the role of government.
Mhm. Anyone trying to buy health insurance?

I love the idea of this, I love the convenience of it, but this was always (sadly) going to be a hard pass for me.
Speaking from experience, one reason is that people grew up cooking meat, and therefore know intuitively how to cook it.

When I cook vegetarian, it can be a lot more work. How long do I do so-and-so, how much whatever goes in the what not, stuff like that.

There’s a lot of intuition in cooking, and switching paradigms can be challenging.
Record your own speech and listen to it.

Find a native speaker you want to sound like and compare your recordings. Tv and radio clips work great. Then try to repeat the same lines of the native speaker in real-time.

Keep practicing until you sound like the native speaker.

You might sound cringe to yourself, and maybe cringe to people who already know you, but plow through.

Sounding like a native works wonders. I did this for several non-English languages and when I travel abroad, the locals treat me like I belonged there.

I am not an audio expert, and those circuits, 324 op-amp and all, hurt my eyes. That said, I didn't look close, and they might be fine for what you might call "utility audio".

The IL300 at least has defined linearity specs. If you do audio design you'll be better qualified than me to comment on them. But I can say: remember, too, if you're using these that they're basically current devices, the transfer ratio across the gap is going to be all over the map in production, feedback is another design challenge, and the saturation voltage will be high, all over the map, and basically the point where more light will not turn on the transistor any more.

The original purpose of grand juries was to allow any citizen to bring criminal charges, so that political appointees wouldn't have this "pre-conviction pardon" capability. The grand jury's job, when returning an indictment, was to appoint an attorney general for that particular indictment:

> Do you think solar panels are infinite

In practice they basically are. Panels are 90-95% silicon which makes up for around 28% of earths crust. That’s largely why they aren’t recycled, they simply aren’t made of partially valuable stuff.

The mounting brackets etc on the other hand are actually recycled.
Configuration files are a developer-friendly and user-friendly way of supporting customization. It allows more conventional Linux users to do their customization using their favorite text editor, in the familiar interface that they already like. And, if somebody decides they want to write a GUI for configuration (maybe to chase users who are more familiar with consumer OSes), all the GUI has to do is write to a file (an easy task in most languages).
Sorry, Unix IS snake oil when compared to VMS. Olsen got that one right.
It's been a year but if I recall it went something like this:

I was using microk8s (a kubernetes distribution) on the wsl side, and I had python scripts (also on the wsl side) which would deploy things into it, run tests until there was a problem, forward a port from the broken service to "localhost:8080", and then instruct the user to open a browser to explore the UI post-test-failure.

On bare metal Linux this was no big deal because "localhost" was unambiguous. But on windows you end up with the browser on the windows side and the forwarded port on the wsl side, so when the browser opened there was nothing at "localhost:8080" even though I could "curl localhost:8080" from the wsl side and get a response.

Presumably there is a way to further forward the port so that it is available to both Windows browsers and wsl python scripts, but I never found it.

I fail to understand the headline. Sneaky? Why is the tech media (well the conservative tech media) fixated on ways to explain Apple's success? It's simple - they make a product people like to buy which works well, satisfies their needs and works together with other products.

The AirPods success is just one of those products. It works very well (and the new AirPods Pro 2 work super well), integrates perfectly with hardware, is marketed well and is supported and serviced in a timely manner by Apple.

No mystery, no sneaky behavior. If you don't like them because you don't like Apple as a company then fine. A Tesla may be a good car but I'd never purchase one because of the despicable behavior of Musk. That's my personal choice.

However if your animosity towards a company leads you to trash products without using them or listening to the users of them then you're a poor journalist or an uninformed consumer.
I swiped up to dismiss the Safari browser on my iPhone this morning and accidentally invoked a half-hight bookmarks view. I wasn’t sure if it’s a new gesture in iOS 16 or if it’s been there for a while. I wasn’t able to reproduce it and a brief web search didn’t find mention of it in the first few hits. I didn’t really care, so I gave up looking.

If anyone knows how to invoke this feature, I’d love to know. Just not enough to try to find out from checking more than about three search results. Anyway, ahhh discoverability. I remember you…

Maybe they couldn't rent it back out right away? After all if you didn't need it why do you think someone else did? Companies aren't at 100% capacity all the time. Anyway why is it their responsibility to find a new renter when you had already agreed to keep the car for a week?
Not that this really excuses them, but if you search for "support" (in the product search box) you'll see a link that takes you to their CS flow or you'll see their phone number, depending on your interface.

This omnisearch box stuff is taking some time for me to get used to.
If you pick a new tech that is interesting to potential employees, it can really help hiring. You can get a lot of experienced applicants wanting to sink their teeth into the new tech. Lots of places found this when they went with Go. Unless you need to produce vast amounts of mediocre code, you generally want to hire the people interested and able to pick up a language even though it isn't easy.

Although I agree the original line is a bit long, and the first refactoring is a clearly more readable, but after that it starts to feel like bike-shedding. FWIW I don't believe in refactoring things into tiny methods that are just used once—it's a lot of boilerplate which makes zero sense if you are not going to reuse it, but it's not the hill I'm going to die on.

Overall a lot of this boils down to minor style issues. I care very little if you give me 5 short lines with named intermediate steps versus a dense one-liner, however I do care very much if your code leverages pure functions, minimizes cyclomatic complexity, encapsulates messy bits, and has some form of test coverage. The former might take me a minute or two longer to grok (depending on my personal context), but the latter compounded over a wide surface area can lead to a completely unmaintainable system and a pathological fear of touching anything.

> let's talk about it in realistic terms and figure out how to make it go faster instead of focusing on the outliers

The media's power lies in focusing on (emotionally charged) outliers. That and wordplay (e.g. a NYT article said "whites and Asians dominate" some top-ranked schools, when whites alone were in fact underrepresented [1]).

What you state is true and apparent to anyone who looks at the statistics. China has lifted billions of citizens out of desperate poverty over the past few decades. Over the same time period, middle-class wealth in the USA has been dropping and the poor have remained poor: in fact, most citizens have become less well-off. It is too bad that people afraid of uncomfortable truths have downvoted you.

It’s become really frustrating. You used to be able to just talk to people to solve problems. Even Amazon in the 2000s was like this. Nowadays, it’s just nothing but “the computer says no”. I ordered a keyboard from Logitech’s own website, as I’m trying to avoid Amazon these days. The keyboard was marked as ready to ship and awaiting carrier for two to three weeks. I called several times because I was needing the keyboard, and I asked them to just cancel the order. They couldn’t because “it was already shipping”, but that status held for nearly three weeks. I asked if they could just call the shipping warehouse or some actual person who worked in that area to either pull the box back or actually have it shipped. I assumed it had just gotten kicked under a table or something. Logitech acted like I had just asked them to solve Schrodinger’s equation. It was flabbergasting that a product just enters into this purgatory state, and no one could talk to anyone or even verify what it’s actual state was.

In another case, UPS destroyed a suitcase and refused to pay their minimum insurance on it, claiming that they don’t pay insurance for boxes and the suitcase was a box. Their customer service refused and could not care less.

These big companies do not care. Customers are a statistic, and the companies are perfectly happy treating customers like shit if the statistics say it doesn’t matter much to their bottom line. It’s also why they just ignore regulations because they get hit with fines that are a pittance compared to their profits.

It’s gonna keep getting worse be like that for everything. Computer systems have turned every employee’s perspective into “not my problem”.

Wayland supports it quite well but any app that uses the legacy XWayland compatibility layer does not work. Which is basically everything using Electron.

(1) That's Mozilla Foundation, which doesn't produce a browser in the first place. And (2) that article is not even anti-decentralization. It's just calling out that the same old stuff is happening in that world too, and the same tools that (poorly) combat that stuff won't work in the decentralized world. The only value judgement is against emergent effects like radicalization; nothing against decentralization itself.

Not particularly what happened here, no.

To be clear, the OP of this thread stated the following with regards to Linux:

>...Energy management, monitor color profiles, external monitors, discrete gpu / integrated switching, Bluetooth, webcam settings all these are broken...

These things are what is being discussed, and they are not broken on macOS and Windows. You could not easily find 20 of these things "broken" in 5 minutes on a random setup given to you.

Most Linux threads inevitably derail into people complaining that macOS/Windows don't work exactly how they want, and then go on to label those platforms as "broken". That is not "broken" though, and simply nitpicking. You can throw a rock on this site and find plenty of examples of it.

Socratic approach has something to do with asking questions instead of giving directions. I guess, instead of saying "You're an idiot if you think this works in concurrent setting...", one should say: "What do you think would happen if we run this concurrently? Are you an idiot?" :)

..."The Optus hacker says they accessed an unauthenticated API endpoint. This means they didn't have to login. The person says: "No authenticate needed. That is bad access control. All open to internet for any one to use.
The API endpoint was api[dot]http://optus.com.au. Yes, that looks weird, but the hacker says it worked otherwise a DNS error occurred. That API is now offline, so there is no more risk for Optus. It was used in part to let Optus customers access their own data."
Also FreeBSD uses ZFSonLinux so license issues aside it doesnt even benefit me there.

I still don’t know what “bro culture” is. At one time I thought it meant fraternity bros, as in the WASPy “my dad is a lawyer, let’s get blackout drunk” kind of bro. But in the last few years I’ve seen it associated with Silicon Valley, a place filled with engineers who worked themselves to the bone for huge paydays. To me the two groups are on opposite sides of the spectrum. Jocks vs nerds.

The only thing I see in common between the two groups is that they’re both groups of ambitious men, with a chip on their shoulder of unknown size.

Whenever I see these articles they read to me like “look over there, the men are making noise again”. Yeah, that’s what men do.

Has anyone considered the fact that there are far fewer powerful women because women aren’t generally interested in working 80 hours a week?

I do that all the time. When I get to a bunch of code that I think has reuse potential (like, say, a backend connection SDK), I break it into a standalone GitHub repo, set it up as an SPM package, and give it The Full Monty for testing and documentation. The testing code usually dwarfs the implementation code, and the documentation is...well, you can see for yourself. Here's a few of the packages that I've written: https://riftvalleysoftware.com/work/open-source-projects/

I usually take a few days off the main project, write, test, document, and release the subproject, then re-absorb it into the main project.

Physical items have ownership. If you store an item to a safety deposit box you are still owner of the item.

Data in general do not have ownership (there are some special cases like copyrightable data or personal data, where exclusive rights equivalent to ownership exist). So anyone who have lawful access to data can use them (unless there is some contractual restriction). So if you upload some general data to the cloud, your and cloud provider's relationship to the data is the same.
X is purely worse for this case. Wayland supports live switching window scaling as they drag across monitor boundaries. X does not. The issue is that electron apps do not support Wayland yet so they run in the X compatibility layer which can not live switch. So reverting to X means you go from some of your windows not working to all of them not working.

Supposedly upstream electron has fixed this but I'm yet to see a single electron app that works. Maybe they just haven't updated electron.

This doesn’t bring me confidence. Just rented from Hertz yesterday and after waiting 30 minutes to even get to the counter I needed to wait another 30 minutes for them to locate the car I was supposed to be renting. They never located the car and swapped to a different car. I’m going to be paranoid that someone else’s rental is going to show up on my tab now. Not a good experience especially after a very long flight. Their process and operations is broken. It should not take more than an hour to rent a car when you’ve already reserved online and already have an account setup with them.

I normally rent with Enterprise or Sixt through Lyft with no issue but they did not have any available cars so I tried Hertz. It now doesn’t surprise me Hertz went into bankruptcy.
I do the same and instead just search from the App Library screen that shows only apps.

Like I just swipe to that screen which is my second screen and enter the first letter and it’s done. Same amount of swipes just right instead of down!

Doesn’t help if you have pages of apps and have to swipe five or six times to get to the App Library but I hide them all in two folders, one for Apple apps and one for installed apps so searching is key. (this was before the option to add to App Library only, indeed before App Library existed I’d basically created my own!)
