Do either of them support the concept of “layers” like Docker does?

I think that feature combined with overlayfs2 is quite useful, despite my many criticisms of Docker.

It is sort of a middle ground between Nix like granularity which requires rewriting upstream, and big LXC blobs created with shell scripts.

Although I also think we need some kind of middle ground between docker and nix :)

If the person they are arresting isn't being prosecuted because the DA releases them for petty crime/breaking into cars/stealing/etc, then there is zero point to actually arresting them if the cop is going to see them on the street again in 4 hours doing the same shit again. This is a political problem, not a police problem.

>Possibly, you’re putting too much weight of importance on your job. You may be letting it define you.

Exactly.

I would caution in response to the original question that the answer might be that you shouldn't relearn to care about your job, and maybe just continue to treat it like a job.

OP if you're with Kaiser then you can self-refer to their psychiatric care unit and they'll give you 7 sessions with a councilor. From there you can decide what you want to do. There's a round of testing for ADHD, depression and anxiety. I'm going through this myself now.
It was fairly true for the NES and SNES generations as well. Each used a CPU five years old by then and a RAM size that was common in computers eight years prior. Really, for only the N64 console generation did Nintendo ever try to outdo its competitors on hardware specs.

Animal Crossing is an interesting game to me because of how little the series code has changed over time. The GameCube releases seems to have almost literally been the Nintendo 64 release recompiled against a different SDK for the GC platform (weighing in at only 27MB total for the GC release! An entire 1.4GB DVD for 27MB!), while the Wii and 3DS games, and seemingly the Switch one, are variants of the DS rewrite (seemingly the last time the codebase was scrapped and restarted).

I'd be really curious to know how similar the Switch code is. On the surface, the game seems to have been extended quite a bit, but I feel like a lot of it is just uncovering functionality that already existed in the codebase, e.g. the ability to place arbitrary items on the outside grid, I'm fairly sure the "engine" already supported this, and it was the way outside objects were implemented, there was just no interface for adding/removing them.
If that’s a waste of their time (setting aside that they don’t get to decide that), what are they doing instead?
I'm a dev. That's what I want. I want something publicly visible that I can get running in the first sprint so I can show everyone what my idea is looking like as it progresses. I want setting up the DB and certificates to be easy. I want a static IP to point my domain to. I want it all to just work if I have the source code and I tell it to deploy. I want secrets to be included so I don't have to stand up Vault or something. I don't want to set up my own Jenkins. I don't want to deal with resizing volumes in k8s. I don't want to dick with networking rules/configurations that allow my frontend to talk to my backend and my backend to my DB.

I also don't want to set up my own log aggregator, grafana, and prometheus/alert manager, but for a quick "show everyone your app", I don't need those. I can add that harder crap later when the app shows promise and I actually need to debug performance.
If the police honestly believe that, they should quit and stop wasting taxpayer money. Again, actions speak louder than words. You're just buying their bullshit excuses for why they're incompetent.

I don't recall having to do any uid/gid fixup last time I made an unprivileged container. I did have to prepare the unprivileged host account, of course, by setting its subordinate uids/gids (/etc/sub?id) and virtual network interface limit (/etc/lxc/lxc-usernet).

To create the container, I did this:

lxc-create -t download -n <name> -- -d debian -r bullseye -a amd64

Note that this runs the 'download' template, which (IIRC) is better suited to unprivileged containers than the 'debian' template is. The 'download' template will list its available distros if you do this:

lxc-create -t download -n <name> -- --list

Note that some versions of the 'download' template may fail with a keyserver error because sks-keyservers.net died somewhat recently. Workaround: DOWNLOAD_KEYSERVER=hkp://keyserver.ubuntu.com lxc-create ...

Warning: about to over generalize, but pro-rto people I've encountered are my opposite. They need an office environment to escape constraints of home and live close enough or don't mind traffic. For me, traffic is the bane of my existence and home is where I thrive mentally and productively. I will always cede the benefit of face to face meetings when needed, but I've rarely needed them in my org enough to be pro forcing people back.

I hope the future holds practical and rational movement to benefit both rto/wfh crowds. RTO extremists however can die with the previous decade for all I care.

The alternative services for users and ways to avoid Google are now many and mature. Google sees more dark data ahead and these threats as cutting into their top line at an accelerating pace.

You're not getting my point. At $200 or even $2000 it's a steal compared to the 'expected value' (really, loss) of having my computer compromised. Yes, I'm more paranoid than most, but I have more to lose than most, and unlike others, I can't claim I don't understand the risks.

I come from a law enforcement and fire service family and I can say I've heard similar things from family and friends in uniform service. The two biggest problems are letting the bad ones walk and the drain of talent & experience as a result of terrible government policy nuking morale.
There are two answers to that question.

The first is "You misunderstood me. I'm hours into the game; that quest got stuck in the first hour or so, I didn't realize it was stuck, and rolling back to before I acquired it would basically reset all my progress. So it's just stuck there, like a splinter, reminding me how broken the game's mechanics are. Getting to live out twelve-year-old-me's fantasy of fighting Adam Smasher hasn't offset the irritation because that's my flavor of OCD."

But had the situation been as you expected, my response would have been "Because I respect my time more than these developers do and there's a literal sea of other games I could be playing that don't make me replay around script bugs."
> Googlers are the softest, whiniest people I’ve ever had the displeasure of working with

Because they complained about a TRILLION dollar company trying to cut a few hundred dollars per person to maximize absentee shareholders' quarterly profits. At the cost of reducing employee satisfaction? Even as it makes $72 freaking BILLION dollars net profit every year?

They don't seem whiny or soft. You seem naive, and very exploitable. With that kind of 'tough, enduring guy' mentality that prevents you from reading in between the lines and protecting you and your groups' interests, you will be the perfect cog in the machine wherever you work.

2. Do amazing and become very valuable to the team

3. Start telling your boss/team that you are considering doing a few less hours per week. See their reaction. Remember, you only do this IF you are very valuable/important to the team already.

4. Make a formal request to switch to part time with a plan on how you will work during the week to get things done.

5. Profit
Certainly you wouldn't, but keep in mind the blower in a home furnace is designed to push air through a filter. This is not the case with box fans, where (at least with the filters I used) the fan throughput vastly decreases when you add the tape. I'm pretty confident in my experiments, but I wouldn't claim this as a general result: It's just a sort of coincidence that the two factors (pushing more air overall and funneling a larger fraction of that air through the filters) happen to almost exactly cancel out. If you have a more powerful fan or you have filter media that creates less of a pressure barrier, then I'm pretty sure you will see a benefit from taping. But I was just worried about the box fan motor so I decided to remove them.

Ontario Canada did a mass $2b implementation of smart meters for time of day pricing.

Unfortunately most people don’t care (or the technology to take advantage of it just isn’t there), and demand shifted less than 1% over several years.

But it’s hard to find this info, because it doesn’t fit the (expensive to implement) narrative of “let them pay market price and people will respond to incentives”.

> If an open source project can't receive an anonymous donation without a "compliance nightmare", then what does that say about the laws and regulations which created that nightmare in the first place?

This makes it sound like this happened in a vacuum, but those laws and regulations are in response to real world events and you have to consider that when talking about whether laws are unreasonable. For example, many people would have ethical objections to accepting a donation from an unknown source (what if the money was generated from some activity I object to?), don't want to deal with potential hassle if the source does something to trigger legal attention, or the risk of a non-zero chance of some unsavory sorts showing up and “suggesting” that you give them some fraction of it as clean cash, etc.

Allowing anonymous transactions means that the latter two kinds of events will happen on an somewhat regular basis, which is why most people accept laws requiring financial institutions to know their customers' identities as a necessary cost. If you say magic internet money is exempted from those requirements, well, there are going to be a whole bunch of surprisingly well-funded open source projects in Mexico paying salaries which make FAANG employees weep with envy.
Yep.

Most of my early hacking endeavors and criminal mentality were developed while circumventing net nanny software and learning how to sneak and lie effectively.

I wasn't allowed a computer in my room, there were long stretches of time where I didn't have a door, and when I finally got a phone it was subject to daily random confiscation so that my texts could be read. I struggled deeply with a sense of identity.

Sorry you had to deal with that stuff, too. I know that you don't gain that kind of perspective without seeing it for yourself.

As a programming language geek, TypeScript is one of the best things to ever happen to the industry. It's finally dispelled the notion that "types == Java == bad/annoying", and shown how powerful and convenient a type system can actually be.

(This is something that's been possible for decades, but it never hit mainstream before as it's hard to implement it well enough to satisfy the silly preferences of us typical programmers :)).
One of the … things … that the article gets towards is that there is "make customer's problem disappear" and "fix the root cause/bug". And so many companies fail to make the distinction.

E.g., Azure: there's customer support, but they only do the "make customer's problem (or really, the ticket) disappear" side of it. Woe be unto you should your problem be caused by a bug in Azure: they have no means of dealing with that. Eventually the ticket dies — usually because my patience has limits — and I am sure they count that as a "win". Ticket closed, after all … even if my problem is no longer a problem b/c I've just abandoned ship.

And the amount of software/stuff out there with no means to report bugs/defects is rather astounding.
Neat analogy, but you didn't finish it. It would be like if the garbage men took the trash out and at the end of the month and the person in charge of the dump released it all back out on the streets. Certainly you would have a garbage strike, which is what happened, and the dump manager (DA) was recalled.

When you arrest the same person over and over again and they are just let out by the DA, you may just not arrest that person again.

You aren't refusing to do your job, you're listening to an elected official that has more power than you do.

Do you have any criticisms to direct at the DA, or do you agree with their actions?

But the show was definitely not in any way about the reality of the drug trade because it didn't depict the reality of the drug trade, especially the drug trade in Baltimore (if anything, it has vague similarities to the 80s-early 90s drug trade in Chicago.) Yes, I know he worked at the Baltimore Sun. The Corner was exactly authentic Baltimore. Even Simon would tell you that The Wire isn't.

The drug trade was a setting for making statements and playing out thought experiments about morality, power, and institutions (which you've pointed out from your perspective.) But if you see it as an accurate reflection of the drug trade anywhere, you're being deceived by fantasy fiction.

Who can receive $400k today from an unknown source without any questions asked? Nobody — not an ordinary person, not a small business, not a foundation.

What exactly makes an open source project so special that it should be exempt from the regulations that apply to everyone else?

And if that were the case, what would prevent an open source project from being just a smokescreen for something else? Obscure API implementations paying pseudonymous developers for PRs with anonymous donation money seems like a fine kind of laundering operation.

I should say a lot of that is because of the fundamental assumption that multiple instances of an app are related to each other in multitasking.

If I have vscode in my external monitor, plus two Firefox instances one in internal and one in the external, than in many ways of switching to the browser, both windows come up. That covers my IDE, and I need an extra click/keystroke to bring it back. One example of many.

I've observed many mac users. Most of them are much slower than a windows/Linux user with same level of geekiness. In windows/KDE linux, the window switching is conceptually simple and everyone can learn it fast.
That's not my read. Just that sourdough was not typical of American baking at the time (mid-19th century):

In 1849, when gold miners began arriving in San Francisco, most Americans didn’t bake or eat sourdough bread. American bakers typically leavened their bread with “barm” (a yeast derived from beer brewing) or one of several relatively new commercial yeast products.

From TFA.

Whether or not sourdough was prevalent or not relative to barm (often a synonym for sourdough) isn't clear.

Google's Ngram Viewer is ... interesting if not especially clear. "Barm" is the leading term from the 1600s through the early 19th century, where "sourdough" becomes the dominant term around 1920:

<https://books.google.com/ngrams/graph?content=barm%2Csourdou...>

(I'm not confident that "barm" refers strictly to leaven, and sampling some of the 17th century results shows ... numerous Dutch and German texts....)
