You're not wrong about defense however there is a huge caveat. From what I'm told, when a company in defense (in the US) uses FOSS they must sign a waiver saying that they will be responsible for all updates and vulnerabilities discovered with said library. This also means that if the library stops being maintained, the company is responsible for maintaining the library.

I know that the reason why RHEL is preferred over Ubuntu or other distros is the fact RHEL has a paid license and provides regular updates to even "dead" or EoL libraries and packages.

Having said that, I wish more companies would take that dive. I've been in situations where the company would not sign a waiver so we had to essentially re-create a functionality that a FOSS library already provides.
NFT people believe that value comes from scarcity. So they figure they will get richer when things get destroyed.

> With systemd, You can use journalctl to tail the log file by journalctl -u <unit> -f , so something like journalctl -u postfix -f

Last time I seriously used systemd I ran in to occasional log corruption. I've never not been able to just tail or cat log files even if they became corrupt (somehow?) but for whatever reason systemd can (or could?) get your logs in a state where they're unreadable with its purpose built journalctl tool. For example:

https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=249028

It was a long while back so I hope it's fixed by now, but I'm skeptical of the quality of the whole system given how much worse it was at reading files. (Compared to grep, which has never failed me.)
I agree it's obvious that they will start to relate to each other if they cohabitate, and in that sense it's "water is wet". But the details of how exactly they relate might still be cool.
I've hired a number of junior designers based almost solely on 'made up' projects and school projects. I know many others who have too. If you're good, or at least show potential, at the junior designer level it doesn't matter.

Except that it was the bevy of Apple VPs putting pressure on this ouster.
Sure they definitely exist. But I would be surprised it's more then a hundredth to a tenth of a percent of users. Sure you can pander to those, and you should if it doesn't have serious drawbacks. But not being able make laptops smaller is a serious drawback, even this CAMM memory is still stacking PCBs which costs quite a bit of room.
I think that complaint is slightly different, that the fish:cheese ratio is becoming unbalanced towards cheaper cream cheese and away from expensive fish. Which is I suppose a form of shrinkflation.
It's ok to not process somethings/sometimes. For one, it frees the decision/thinking process up for better/more worthy mental pursuits as decision/thinking is a mental finite resource. For two, it buys time to remember there are other alternatives than the gut/first response.

You might just be seeing how void much discussion in various places actually is of true significance. (Going for walks has helped me see this before as it seems to 'clear the mind'.) Like that scene in Breaking Bad when Hank tells Walt to "shut up, he's already made up his mind. He's just waiting for you to shut up."

This might be a time for you to re-explore for yourself what your goals and definitions of what you want/don't want are. There are likely things/discussions within which you simply have no interest. This is healthy.
If it’s just the tooling that makes you dislike it, the tooling is just as frustrating if you write plain JS. If you don’t have specific gripes with the TypeScript syntax and type system as such, I’d suggest trying just using it without any additional tooling (typescript as a dev dependency, tsc as the only build step) in a project amenable to that. The biggest downside is slower iteration when tsc itself is slow. But you don’t actually need all of the tooling complexity if that’s what you don’t like.
If you have human-readable JS, you either didn't write much or you forgot to minify it.
> A judgement instituted in Texas, will likely have to be respected

A final judgement, sure, but that’s not the issue: the issue is the legal scope and force of evidence-gathering orders, and unlike final judgements those would seem pretty clearly to be subject to the public policy exception to the FFC and the implementing federal legislation that the Supreme Court articulated in Pacific Employers Ins. Co. v. Industrial Accident Comm'n, 306 U.S. 493, 502 (1939).
People just feel more comfortable with the blocked letters. Friggin, F*** you, S, C word and on and on do not trigger the same brain area as the complete swear words even though we understand what people are trying to say. In many cases, using swear words will trigger violence or shock, maybe both. Yet, the pseudo-word will trigger added interest in the subject.

My question is why? Why do we feel more comfortable with the Pseudo-word? When it comes down to it, they mean the same.
For Python using fileinput module goes long way: https://docs.python.org/3/library/fileinput.html
He's not wrong. Computer research is so irrelevant that I haven't ready much of it in decades. The things that do bubble up are theoretical security problems that really won't move the needle.

I mean, TCP/IP won, but that doesn't mean that it's the best. It's not even close. Same with the current CPU architectures; the work, they can scale, but still.

The chips today can solve certain kinds of problems really well. Is the scope our problems are limited by what the chips can do? Or does it seem that way because they're so general-purpose that they can handle any kind of problem?
Of course. Many people are not supporting a starving family, many people can take other jobs. I'm only trying to demonstrate there is a grey area.

> But if we're talking about journalists' ability to protect the information and identity of their confidential sources (again, a bar that you set), of all the options available, Gmail is not a pretty good one.

I disagree. Gmail is an incredibly secure mail service and is a fine way to perform some communications - in particular, while something like Signal may be ideal, Gmail can have a much better UX around initial contact.

Even if it weren't, it really doesn't matter, journalists do use it and they are targeted. But again, journalists are just an example, there are hundreds of millions of people using gmail - protecting them is something one could very easily consider to be ethical.
To be fair, have western media ever stopped trying to demonize the Chinese government, no matter what it did?

I thought I knew where Xinjiang was until I saw the CNN news regarding it with a map showing it in somewhere near Guangdong. Another example was the Chinese police event recorder version of the BBC interviews in Xinjiang.

Given such conditions, why would Chinese government give a f*ck about whatever it's doing? It will be attacked anyway, disclosing stuffs just open more attacking surfaces.
I don't know what other people's experience has been with DataDog, but the user interface experience I had with it was definitely reminiscent of something produced from a dog's rear end.

There is no reason that we must retaliate against Russia for a tactical nuke used in Ukraine.

Look, I do run uBO. It doesn't even completely block JS, yet it still routinely breaks very basic pages, and I have to use a lot of webdev and industry knowledge to even try to unbreak them without entirely turning off blocking. So no, for most people who want to use mainstream websites, just turning off JS is not a real option. That this is a dystopic scenario does not change the practical reality.
If you are hunting for a gross change, sure, go get scanned. For example, a calcium scan is generally a good thing--learning that your arteries are 50%+ blocked will save your life.

However, the kind of detail you require to catch something small, early requires an MRI--generally with a contrast dye. Unfortunately, Gadolinium, for example, seems to bioaccumulate. So, just like X-Rays, how many MRI's do you need to get over your life before the MRI is more problematic than the thing you are looking for?

And this is before you start getting into what emotional toll that "spotting something" will have on the patient. A friend of mine had "something" on her mammogram and the anxiety combined with high-blood pressure spike that induced until the biopsy came back negative could very well have given her a stroke.

The worst part is that people want to do all this "medical" stuff when there are much better low-hanging fruits: eat better, exercise, sleep, get vaccinated (viruses cause more damage than you think), etc.
Ticketmaster is actually in bed with the scalpers [1]. Not only they make money because of the original sale to the scalpers, it seems they also get a second commission when a consumer buys from the scalper to "verify" the sale.

How thin your notebook should be? Especially if it's not a low powered used once in a while\emergency one, but an everyday workhorse?

I updated my previous comment, take a look there.
To be clear, the reason why expected final money is `p * all money` is because the only "absorbing states" are the win state and lose all money state, so it's `p * max money + (1 - p) * 0`, right?

Also, it's not quite clear to me why in this case initial money = expected final money. For the related game where you go double-or-nothing on each bet, it's evident this holds since the expected value of your next turn is the same as your current (I believe it's called martingale property), but that doesn't hold for the game in the article where you win +1 or -1 unit each bet, since if you e.g. have 4 units and the win state is 5 units, you're more likely to win than lose.

Edit: nevermind, I think it is a martingale since if you're at 4 units the expected value of the next state is 0.5*5 + 0.5*3 = 4. I guess my confusion stemmed from the fact that even though the long-term expected value is unchanged, you can still have good odds of winning (which is balanced by a small chance of a catastrophic loss), e.g. 4 = 0 * 1/5 + 5 * 4/5.
Nothing is a well defined term that means the same thing to everybody, so if those are the standards you keep it's going to be impossible to have any kind of discussion. None the less it is possible for people to communicate, even given the vagaries of language, if you're willing to extend people the benefit of the doubt and try to actually understand what they're saying. I think you were remiss in your duty to extend that benefit of the doubt, to try to understand what OP was saying, and I think that's why you were dismissed and they're not responding to your more substantive arguments.

Particularly the bit on "The Cluster Structure of Thingspace"

>>A verbal definition works well enough in practice to point out the intended cluster of similar things, but you nitpick exceptions. Not every human has ten fingers, or wears clothes, or uses language; but if you look for an empirical cluster of things which share these characteristics, you'll get enough information that the occasional nine-fingered human won't fool you.
I can't see how it is 'capability-based'.

Yeah ... this line is misleading: "most of the energy that the sun radiates is in the green part of the spectrum."

In the 2000s we spoke about distributed operating systems (Inferno, etc.). That's where systems research seemed to be headed, yet that never really took off. But maybe we're revisiting the concept now, just coming down from the layer above (e.g. application data types) instead of trying to rethink the OS.

I work on this [1], it kinda looks like systems software, and it doesn't feel stagnant. But then, nobody uses it (yet - I hope).

And there's a plethora of similar ideas (DAT, OrbitDB, etc.).

This is pretty neat. You write a function and then a library automatically creates wrapper libs to be called in a browser as if it’s a function call. A variety of frameworks have done similar - SOAP auto-generated Java libs come to mind - but this looks very clean and minimal.
The vast majority of web apps have JS on the front end. It's not even close.

It’s my impression GP doesn’t have a clear picture of where TypeScript ends and the rest of the tooling ecosystem begins. Which is totally understandable, especially given how pervasive TypeScript is and how it nearly totally overlaps with the rest. I think you and I have similar perspectives on the details, but you could be kinder expressing them.

At some point in the far future it might make sense to renegotiate that treaty, but for now we're so far from being able to build a practical Project Orion type spacecraft that the issue is moot. And in the meantime there are other nuclear rocket designs which don't rely on explosions and would comply with the treaty. Those engines would be perfectly adequate to send manned missions to Mars and the outer planets, if we were willing to spend a few trillion dollars.
Depressive realism isn’t actually “realistic”, it’s called realism because you think it’s real when you have it.

Similarly “realists” in foreign policy aren’t actually realistic, “effective altruists” aren’t necessarily either, “fast” programs aren’t necessarily fast.

That’s why you should name your identities with more humility.

Keats made a strawman argument. Take an artist and show them the science. Take an artist and show them some history. Take an artist and show them a different view of something. Does adding different facets of knowledge to something reduce the value of the existing facets?

A scientist looking at a rainbow can enjoy the thought that their eye is at the apex of a cone of light - looking parallel along the side of the cone - and that the projected cone looks like an arc. A field of rays which your eyes only see a fraction of. A scientist can wonder about the infrared and ultraviolet colours that are not visible. A scientist can appreciate that there is no colour magenta in the rainbow - a rainbow does not contain "all" colours. A scientist can wonder about how discrete drops dashing through the air can create a continuous looking rainbow - Monet or Esher would appreciate that. A scientist can delight in creating a rainbow by construction, not only by discovery. A scientist can search for rainbows in unobvious places that they might expect one.

Adding those facets to an artist doesn't take anything away from an artistic appreciation. It is additive to the wonder.
I’ll take the bait: what do people do, then? Let’s say I agree with your point, genuinely: what are they doing instead?

>there's no way for Russia to act irrationally according to your framework.

Disagreed, it's pretty clear that the Russian position is that it would be 100% irrational to allow their biggest enemy to control Ukraine, which is essentially what happened when we meddled in Ukraine in 2014 and led to the annexation of Crimea literally the next day.

I understand. But let me note that I spend maybe 1 hour a week looking after and optimising my long term investments. So it isn’t a time burden. The “one clever trick” is to invest 10% of your monthly income in long term investments (index funds for example) and reduce your living standards accordingly. Sacrificing a bit of the here and now for the future. As for health I have spent maybe 10 hours listening to many of the great talks on health by experts on YouTube (Low Carb Down Under for example) and adjusted my diet accordingly. And I spend 30 min a week improving my muscle mass (following the book “Body by Science”). So in summary it doesn’t have to take a lot of time to look after both your financials and your health.
That's a fair compromise I think. Photostructure does look quite nice, so I'll give it a go.

"Vitamin D is made when UV (more precisely, UVB rays) react with a compound (7-dehydrocholesterol) in the skin. The best rays for UV synthesis have wavelengths between 270–300 nm." [1]

Systemd does not make people angry, they want to be angry by themselves for mostly religios and nostalgic reasons. Having a well integrated system is really valuable and saves you a ton of work and time. If you want to replace most of systemd features you need like 25 different softwares which all work differently, are configured different and are not that well integrated with each other which means you need to do more things and be way more careful that everything works together.

Devuan only has one and only one selling point: not systemd, which makes it for most people a unattractive choice.
I can vouch. We recently switched from Vulkan to NVN on a Switch title, not for perf reasons but because NVN is supported in the tool chain a little better. If you have a Vulkan title already it might be OK for a quick port to the Switch.
Medical tourism and paying in cash wherever is convenient/inexpensive might also be an option to consider - there are a lot of places that will be cheaper than Europe.
Interesting - why would fluctuation of the energy flow into the biochemical cascade cause an increase in free radical production?

If this is the case then seems a lot more likely and evolutionarily sound than the efficiency interpretation; unless there is some second order effect of the rate of photosynthesis on its efficiency/completion that couple with some sort of initial energy barrier I struggle to see how smoothing fluctuations by using non-proximal wavelenghts would be more efficient than allowing fluctuations with greater absorption across the spectrum (and so greater net energy absorption). Some more basic survival mechanism like the free radical one you propose just seems to be more intuitive. With green colouration a circumstantial bedfellow of the other chemical properties rather than the master. Still speculative of course.

Keen to hear your thoughts.
Ironic if those are the result of mutation caused by the UV radiation. If UV causes cancer in humans it's probably not good for fungi DNA.

> but bolting on modality to an editor that was never meant for it

Frankly, I don't even know what you're talking about. Modality is all over Emacs. It was there even before Evil. Some extensions even use modality completely differently - not like in Vim.

As an avid, hard-die Vimmer, I tend to agree when people say "there's no such thing as Vim-emulation", it's either Vim/Neovim or something half-baked.

But Emacs is an utterly different beast here. Emacs can and does vim better than Vim and Neovim. Anyone who argues differently perhaps has never gotten deep enough in either of those muds.
