That's why on linux you can mount your home directory to a separate partition. You can reinstall the OS but still keep all your files and settings intact. And even better, it's the default location like "My Documents" so the OS and apps know where to look for things.
^ yeah, this. Since the user doesn't create their own profile, and it's all arcane internal windows crap, why can't it be a bit more helpful than "Woopsie, you're in a temporary profile now! Normal rules do not apply." Like, "Do you want Windows to create a new profile and try to migrate your data to it?"
Even so, this reduces the cost difference between iron and aluminum, so we'd see more applications shift to aluminum.
tl;dr unnecessary abstraction. all of this can be managed by REST APIs, and is already done so, why revert back to disgusting, archaic looking SQL limitations?
Bye Nick! Thanks for all the blinking lights!!
If I want to break up with a woman, without me doing the breaking up? I have a moment of vulnerability over something, even allow myself to cry. She'll do the rest.

You're allowed to cry when your mother dies or your dog dies. Anything else and you may as well be wearing a dress. The constant encouragement to be vulnerable and express feelings is merely a test to make sure you're still "masculine enough."
It's easier to get internships these days by being LGBT, or poc.

In an increasingly ultra competitive environment, I can't say I haven't thought about claiming to be gay.
> She should be told that in those terms, and you should demand an apology.

And how exactly this should help? It's clearly past that point already.

You're right of course, but this is a man in his 70s who didn't want to bother me again to fix his old laptop.
M365 Business Premium includes P1 and costs 22 USD per user. You also get MDM (Intune) and other security related stuff.
And for the love of God, if it's a single player game let me pause while it's loading (which shouldn't interrupt the loading, but should make it start in a paused state).
It's another company that operates the services and "ports" games over. There is now several "Cloud" games available in western markets for the Switch like the Kingdom Hearts Collection, Guardians of the Galaxy and Hitman.
I would also say that another, perhaps controversial shortcoming of rational thinking is that it presumes the human mind can process and reason with all aspects of reality. But using rational thinking, isn't it rational to also presume that there could be aspects of reality which the human brain simply isn't equipped to process but are still real in that we can sense and be affected by them?

This is similar to how a person born blind accepts the reality of the visible world without ever experiencing or being able to rationalize it.

Or perhaps a better analogy would be ants and other insects who only think/see in 2d (or so I heard, correct me if this is wrong).
The US's industrial world has been hollowed out, so there's literally far less things to do. Drive & ambitious besuits a nation doing things. But our nation has offshored a vast amount of what it used to do, & the cost of living & risk of starting small businesses stack up to a huge lack of opportunity.

I love computers & coding, but it makes me so bloody sad how America is only good at "movies, micro-code, & pizza delivery". We have some other fronts for innovation & advanced works, huzzah, but we are so uncompetitive (given our absurd costs of living, adversarial legalism, & extremely acquisitive mega-corporations), that so much doing stuff, making stuff is inordinately hard to support.

What id there to be ambitious & driven for in a world where so few have roles & jobs where they get to be a real & significant part of making stuff? That post-war post-depression era, of building a country anew was such fresh & wide opportunity, & that wont come again, but making a competitive internal economy with things to do, rather than a fistful of megacorps & nearly everyone somewhere deep deep deep down the org chart.... it's the choice between vitality & forever rot. Men wont get better under the prevailing economic dominance by juggernaut corporations using offshore labor.

The new EV tax-credits being tied to onshore labor is interesting. But these are still micro scale incentives, an isolationist policy assuming sparseness. Creating a more open competitive economic competition at home, finding ways to tackle extreme cost of living crunches & supporting new ventures, enabling new industrial growth... there's much to do to heal & restore America to a place with things worth doing. This challenge isnt American; we all share making affordable life with things worth doing tennable.

Because it runs in a terminal, and that’s how programs are supposed to behave when stdin is a tty.
> also having Okta or any other 2FA provider for 2 factor authentication

Why would you do that?
Also, in the latest versions of the windows 11 install or OEM first boot setups, the only way you can get the local account option is to kill every network connection. The local account option is hidden otherwise.

My ritual for family machine setup is locate wifi kill switch-> if not available, announce wireless going down-> kill network->setup to local account->reenable network

It's patently infuriating. Throw in where I've had family members set up Microsoft accounts with only 1 form of auth (Phone number), change that, them get locked out of their Microsft account for a month because of Microsoft's daft policies. Though I didn't set up that machine. It boggles the mind that Microsoft's default flow would run the risk of such an outcome.

Off-topic but have to say OSS Pipedream is something I've wanted to see for so long. Definitely checking that out!
>>But there are no shelters for men in most provinces

People have tried, the last person I am aware of that tried to get a mens shelter off the ground was harassed to the point of suicide, and faced extreme resistance and protesting in attempting to fund it. There is lots of government funds for womens shelters, and zero government funds for mens shelters
This is going to cut into profits, for sure.
Terminal emulators, IMO, have 2 big reasons they are popular. First is that they work like a better, more stable web browser in the sense that they provide a standard platform to develop UIs on. Second is that the command shell is arguably the best general purpose UI we have for computers today and it lives in the terminal.
"They're sharing a drink they call Loneliness, but it's better than drinkin' alone" - Billy Joel

Even if you don't talk every hour, you do have conversation. You are reminded that other people understand you, and they live your life. Conversations can happen spontaneously in a way they never will on zoom or slack.

A fully remote workplace is a lonely, sad place. I know.
Your last point about having to do radiation shielding anyways is interesring. I wonder if there are now materials or designs that can address this since it was firsr researched in the 70s and 80s.
I've got the 13th edition (1926). What's great about the older editions is discovering that "real" experts contributed to the encyclopaedia. (For example, Albert Einstein writing about Space-Time, Sigmund Freud writing about the Freudian School of Psychoanalysis.)
"Allows you to choose" is absolutely the wrong way to describe it.

But yes, if you get an script with the set of actions that make local accounts possible, you can replicate them.
It’s insane to me that after all these years apple is still somewhat ignoring the gaming market. I basically haven’t played any pc games in like 6y due to that. Thanks god there’s the steamdeck now
Appreciate the suggestion. I love human nature books but haven't actually stopped to read one since I finished 48 Laws of Power and Art of Seduction
I think that emacs with evil mode is a superior vi-like editor than either NeoVim or Bram's Vim. I haven't found the docs to be an issue, I don't need the emacs docs to tell me how evil works because I already had years of experience with Vim before switching to evil+emacs.
> The disgusting thing is that if one's value does plummet

A more disgusting thing to me is the idea that people see their partners (or believe their partners see them) as having “value” like they’re a breathing stock ticker symbol.
Salesforce unveils its 'biggest innovation in 20 years
Yes, that's why companies prioritize diversity over meritocracy
Well, I wouldn't advise that without knowing the full details of the situation, and especially how sensitive the kid is. I've heard many discussions on that point, with divorced parents arguing "it's better for the kid if they don't see us quarrel all the time" and those still being couples saying "a kid needs both parents."

My personal observation is that if the parents love the kid more than they dislike themselves, they are going to stay, at least until the kids become adults.
The thing is, I think we are just in a time of social rediscovery. Everything seems chaotic because there were a lot of repressed people in society who are just now finding the freedom not to hide themselves. Nobody really knows what it means to integrate all these new elements and we are trying to figure it out. Combined with larger geopolitical issues like economic inequality, immigration and climate change it seems like the whole world in in turmoil.

My point is that I feel like it's not necessary to hold these groups to the standard of being logically consistent and rational all the time. The movements are still in their infancy. They will make mistakes. It's all experimental right now. We will figure it out, but it may take generations so the best thing to do is just relax and be supportive.
It’s helpful to align titles with the rest of the industry so that everyone outside of your small group knows what role you play without a long explanation. Custom or non-standard titles is like mixing code styles in the same file. So much fun when you’re doing it but such a huge pain when the next person comes in.
I just went "nearest ancestor up the stack" as a short hand, because the evolution of languages is a huge tree and a lot to talk about. If we want to get into it deeper, Proto-Indo-European had some truly fascinating grammar cases from what we think we've reconstructed of them. Most of the stuff that PIE did seems like "natural laws" simply because of how many modern languages we regularly see branched from it and how deeply rooted a tree in the language forest it is. But then we also have had chances to study non-PIE rooted languages and the "universals" are fewer than we think they are.
It also doesn't sounds like a sufficiently manly way to address the issue, in his wife's view.
I mean, the article has all the answers.

It's an economic problem and the fact is lower class men are, for lack of a better word, fucked.
You say that as if Google was only an advertising agency...
FWIW I’ve had a fair amount of keyboards over the past few years and I’m very happy with my Cherry MX low profile switches. It feels great with very little in the way of trade-offs vs regular sized switches. My Keychron has proven to be very versatile with Bluetooth connections to my work Mac, iPhone, and personal Linux/Win. I’ve had plenty a long day of coding and winning CS:GO rounds with it. For people into tiny and portable computing it’s tough to beat, and it’s mechanical Mac keyboard features are handy, but not it’s only upside.

I think those would have worked well for this project, but I do love that they are full-sized too.
Do people actually consider Alibaba and GCP? I would wager that most of the potential customer base of the two don't intersect.
Well i'd imagine when they touch, that's kinda bad for safety...
Can someone recommend where one can order a full genetic sequence currently in the US and get the raw data ? It seemed highly-regulated when I last checked and required it be order through your doctor. The article touches on this a bit how the price gets into the thousands due to markups and counseling.

Also how many full sequences would I have to get before the data is statistically sound. Since there is likely a base pair or two that will be different between the cells (maybe) and the sequencer hardware and process will likely have errors too. My gut tells me 10 to 20 but perhaps that seems like overkill since many base-pairs might be junk/repeats/irrelevant anyway and the raw data will have some confidence indication as well IIRC.
"Meanwhile, the labor market has become a more hostile place for many men — especially those with less education. In 1970, the wage of the typical American man who completed his education with a high-school diploma was over $50,000 in today's dollars. Now, it's less than $35,000. While the gender gap in earnings has narrowed, the class gap has widened. In fact, the wages of most men are lower today than they were in 1979, while women's wages have risen across the board."
The detonation produces higher pressure and temperature, causing higher exhaust gas velocities. More energy in the exhaust means more push from the same amount of propellant. About 15% more. The other yet to be realized in practice advantage is that by eliminating the compressor stages on a rocket engine its construction is simplified, and despite needing a much stronger combustion chamber, it could actually be lighter.

If it can live up to more efficient, cheaper, and lighter then it will certainly see widespread use.

There are bound to be issues with new larger designs, but nothing show stopping is expected.
Is it, though? I find a lot of security in the knowledge that Ubuntu has a self-sustaining financial model. It’s still close enough to the original love of software that Linus strongly approves. I really enjoyed your parent comment’s take on grant-writing. I do, however, expect that this is already taking place in the appropriate areas of Linux development more than is commonly realized.
Usually caused by clever programming tricks using undocumented APIs.
By cold start I mean, I haven't launched the app in the last days, so it's not in any sort of cache or memory pages.

No, I don't have any antivirus, and generally very concerned about what's running in the background (I delete apps from LaunchAgents dir, avoid keeping hungry Electron apps in the background unless really needed, etc).
Well if we step aside from scientific conjectures on what makes people depressed, which as far as I know is inconclusive...

We can ask ourselves what makes people depressed and postulate:

I would point at a lack of realized agency as the main culprit. Now if one capable of operating via a realistic fictional narrative it's probable they could simply narrate that whatever happens was intended (internal), or perhaps is for the best (external), or is a challenge for the best (combined). And these modalities can be divided, perhaps unnecessarily, into various different subcategories... I think I could find this comfortable, and I think history has a lot of elements to reinforce this reasoning, one obvious and predominate one being religion, but I would suggest that some biographical works would equally point towards internal and combined narratives.

But what if we imagine someone who can not or does not subscribe to these narratives? There's a huge degree of reduction in their agency automatically. For instance, it's pretty easy to brazenly rationalize some success as a gut feeling, an instinct, an unconscious will - but what if it's just... Luck? As for external: from my perspective it would be fairly comforting to think that some predestiny has been concocted for me, this is just some experiential ride for some greater purpose and I'm an element affecting a much greater end. Or a combined version wherein I am both an agent, and a choice one, being pressed into ascension of spirit by some greater force, again for some greater end...

Or we're a mortal meatsocks who will live some relatively short life and have a very limited effect on the outcomes of the greater picture (except by extremely limited and fixed chance), highly constrained by innumerable forces impeding our ability to enact our wishes regardless of their actual magnitudes.

Personally I feel obliged to exist in the lattermost space, because I hope to seek truth - but I don't discount the other approaches either. But as TFA indicates, and I will corroborate, there is a balance to be struck.
Why - you think it wasn't clever enough to be called clever hacking? :)
My condolences for your loss.

My own father is a physican and very against any elective exams himself. His reasoning is that his colleagues are excessively interventive so the less medicine, the better. I wish your own father had been diagnosed in time but I can see the downside in doing too many exams as well. Doctors won't be able to keep their hands off treating any little lump they find, even if it's to your detriment.

Case in point, surgery for back pain causes said pains to worsen at about the same rate as it improves them.
Preach, friend.

All the people saying remote is great aren't thinking about job mobility for new workers in a field, the cost of having to share your home with your job, having to have a larger home, not separating work and home life, etc. I am repeating myself a little bit.

We are in a transition period where we see more of the positives of WFH. Give it a decade and the crippling social and job mobility issues for younger workers will be apparent.
A lot of startups or smaller companies I've worked with are entirely on the Google stack (gmail, google drive). I imagine there's a scale when that option breaks, but I think it'd be fine until 50-100 employees.
This explanation doesn't do it for me because you also wouldn't be able to run any text editor you like. Basically you're going to be using vi (or possibly vim or nano). It also shouldn't be a daily activity to be poking around directly on a production machine, and if it is then why not setup something like sshfs and use a local text editor on the file? Then you can use whatever GUI or TUI editor you'd like.
(Ironically it might be an ad blocker in your browser causing this!)
Substituting smoked salmon for lox seems fishy. A real caper, if you will.
No, but statistically small boys are more physically active, more distractible, have a harder time sitting still, etc. Statistically girls are more verbal at a young age, and spend more time talking, reading books, etc. and less time playing sports or video games. Some differences are probably biological, and some are due to different socialization.

Either way, when kids get to school, the young girls are (on average) better prepared and more likely to follow teachers’ directions. Then school systematically rewards well prepared (and “well behaved”) students while punishing under-prepared or troublesome students. For many students and their families, rather than leading struggling students to seek additional help and work harder to catch up, it just causes emotional pain and feeds apathy or resentment towards schoolwork.
It's pretty solid. Even cypress webkit is using playwright.
You have no idea how much this software can be changed with an consistent effort exerted over many decades.
No, that’s how certain type of OS launched jobs behave, specifically pipes or daemons in foreground. There have always been programs that have very different behavior in their interaction that do not honor the job control binding. Emacs comes to mind, almost all Usenet readers, etc.
New developers may not believe this, but javascript isn't needed for a UI
Someone in their 70s just blames "that stupid old laptop" that their brother told them to replace last year, but they wouldn't listen. The underlying cause is never found, the pop-up message wasn't read. The laptop is just an asshole. They'll go to the computer store and buy a different laptop that isn't an asshole.
Disagree but not because of philosophical reasons like “I want to fix my driver and know what it is doing”, but actually practical reasons — tons of companies make a driver plus hardware and end up semi abandoning it.. but some people in the community with open source drivers will often fix it.. then after some time people end up realizing the way they fixed it is better than the original driver and now the companies actually benefit from that new driver. So you end up with a win win for people and companies. So in general closed source drivers end up sucking compared to open source drivers except for very rare situations.. and even after massive battles with say nvidia they are starting to realize they will end up benefiting from working with the open source community rather than against them..

Back in those days Mac OS didn't had a terminal, unless for developers using MPW.
I have a small grill that I heat up breaded chicken fillets with, then I make a (tortilla) wrap with taco sauce, lettuce, & cucumber. When I get bored of that, I move on to grilled cheese & ham sandwiches. I have a sandwich grill just for that. If I'm still bored, I make an omelette with bell peppers, mushrooms, chopped chives, and fry it with butter, coconut oil, and olive oil.
You accidentally only got the first third of the rule?

There was one single burst of fucks. That's infrequent use of strong profanity.

The next category up, which is still the intermediate category for advertiser friendliness, is "Focal usage of strong profanity throughout a video (e.g. mentioned in every sentence)."
I hope Meetup is replaced or fixes their problems. When moving cities or just traveling anywhere for a significant time it was an invaluable tool for meeting people with any kind of similar interest. But COVID crushed it, I don't know the financial particulars, but host I've talked to found it became particularly hard to continue groups that didn't have obvious financial backing (tech meetups that company's pay for to scout workers) or extremely passionate members willing to bear the cost.

I got lucky my previous city had extremely passionate members for my favorite group, but my new city is smaller and I think the fees have either killed the old group or are preventing a new group from forming
I switched because the cursor handling is nicer in neovim. It puts a bar when editing so you can see if you're inserting before or after a character, and an underscore when operating on a single character (like after pressing "r").

The former sucks to do in vim, I couldn't get it working in tmux at all, and I don't think the latter is possible?

Apart from that I'm treating it like vim and using all my existing vimrc and vimscript plugins. It's been good.
Do you know why you are repulsed, if I may ask? We have completely different ways to tackle this, apparently! :D

I'm like you, totally stoic. But if one of my mates has problems or is obviously in a dark place and wants to talk, it doesn't bother me at all, even if it is a, from my perspective, petty reason - we're humans and not rational machines, after all.
I love the curmudgeonly comment on the blog post:

Amazing that they couldn't understand the article's marketing value
Wow, I haven't thought about that program for years. I'd thought it was abandoned.
