This is what I'm wondering about, but I'll take your word for it. Thanks!
Well done! Can't wait to see Loom become the default for web frameworks.

Also spotted the Vue plugin - great to see this as so many light weight web apps with a few pages can benefit from using Vue but setting up all the build chain is such a drama that it's usually not worth it. Look forward to trying it out.
To some extent the actual weapons system used would be irrelevant. If the US declared a blockade, all commercial shipping insurers would immediately withdraw coverage in that zone. Conflict zones are (mostly) uninsurable, and large merchant ships don't sail without insurance. And the US would immediately back that up with wide-ranging economic sanctions prohibiting any entities involved in trade with China from being able to use any part of the US financial system. Thus almost no neutral flagged ships would be able to call on Chinese ports.

The US Air Force has put a renewed emphasis on air-delivered naval mines. During WW2 those weapons played a major role in starving Japan and they're just as effective today.

> how long do you think it will be until an insurance company subpoenas Apple for it's health data?

> The private companies are funding the foundation.

Except that if you look at their financials, it’s clear that they make very little on them. The sales of Rpis are not how they keep going, it’s all the other activities around it.

> It’s hard to call it leeching when the pi is a comparatively expensive board compared to alternatives

It’s not only about COGs, support is a big ticket in this area, and one that most manufacturers are way behind. Also, yes, there are some cheaper SBCs, but most of them are sold at “ask us for price”, and they aren’t any cheaper, especially at low volumes.
The biggest problem with Apache httpd is how many awful copy/paste blogs there are out there telling you how to do things on Ubuntu, which has no resemblance at all to actually managing httpd. Everything explains how to use some silly wrapper script like a2enmod to do something when all you really need is to make a symlink or something like that. IMO, the Ubuntu method of managing httpd could easily be responsible for why so many people think nginx is easier.

Use a RHEL based system and manually edit the files yourself. It’s very easy.
If you're OK with something that is like a 30W electrical load, you can do basic things a lot cheaper by buying a used ex-corporate "SFF" or "USFF" Dell or HP x86-64 desktop PC for under a hundred bucks on ebay. They fit in a quite small space under a desk or similar.

Will almost certainly cost a lot less than buying a new mini-itx motherboard and compatible case, power supply, ram, etc.

randomly chosen example in 20 seconds of searching, figure that the shipping cost is actually $25 of the price here, built into the final buy it now price.

> That's not a problem on commodity LCDs (maybe the one you're using) because "black" is fairly bright, but on OLED especially that's almost infinite contrast.

Therefore, instead of having your browser enforce a lowered contrast for yourself, you prefer that the majority of the rest of us, with commodity LCDs, suffer too little contrast by asking for the colors to be changed on the website.
> Just a minor nitpick (for those who care about the details of OpenJDK's development): virtual threads are not Project Loom, but rather one of the JEPs contributed to the JDK by Project Loom.

Thanks for clearing that up. Would adding a "from" be sufficient?

> hopefully someone has some good advice, so I don't have to resort to quitting and going to an Amazon FC to feel better about myself.

Go work on a farm or as a gardener. You'll feel much better outdoors closer to nature.
>Straight up denial by the PLA; most importantly accusations of "ChinaPhobia"

This was far from the case with Russia and Ukraine. Russia mass at the borders and shouted for months that they would invade if their demands were not met. I would wager that most military invasions start with such Behavior opposed to denial and then a blitz.

I would instead look for escalatory rhetoric in China and Declarations of hard lines that would trigger invasion of Taiwan.
This person is single-handedly driving all resources into all remote locations, in the bed of their truck. No other transport allowed.
Yup, Raspberry Pi kind of sucked the oxygen out of the Beaglebone ecosystem. Speedier and cheaper. The Beaglebone has a lot of features that hardcore embedded engineers want (real-time support, eMMC, tons of IO, good platform documentation), but the Raspberry Pi really appealed to the maker crowd. I guess the $25 price difference made a big difference? I never really understood it.

I was a big Beaglebone Black supporter, but figured the winds were blowing towards the Raspberry Pi, so just started using that instead. Now I'm here with the need for several mini Linux boxes and instead I have nothing. Beaglebone Black feels outdated. Raspberry Pi is unobtainium. Unfortunate where the random walk leads.
I think in general a lot of people "sleep" on how much of a game changer just having Level 1 "chargers" aka "boring wall outlets" everywhere would be.

I also think that thinking of Level 1 as "chargers" and not "boring wall outlets" is a part of the remaining problem. You shouldn't need to bother with the costs for metering and accounting the delivered power at Level 1. Does Starbucks charge you a wall outlet fee to charge your cell phone or laptop? At Level 1 it can just be a "courtesy".

At Level 1 each car is basically the extra draw of one additional old school incandescent light bulb. Who seriously cares to measure that accurately?

You can do a rough math estimate at Level 1 and just add that overhead to your operating expenses per usual. Many places with existing parking fees the added overhead likely is a rounding error compared to the existing parking price. (Same versus apartment rentals or HOA/COA dues.)

Individual outlet metering is expensive and complicates everything, just install boring outlets like we've done for more than a century.
I can empathize to be honest. There's something awesome about doing physical work. You get to use your body to think and move, and feel concrete progress.

However, I think being a Tech CEO is at the opposite end of the spectrum from being an Amazon Warehouse Associate. Being somewhere in the middle seems very compelling.

In essence, Crawford talks about this feeling extensively in his book (Shop Class as Soulcraft). Here's the essay that started it all: https://www.thenewatlantis.com/publications/shop-class-as-so...

He used to be a manager at a political think tank but went back to the trades because he found the latter not only more satisfying, concrete, and tangible, but also more mentally taxing, creative, philosophical, etc.

I meant that China would take back those parts of Manchuria and nearby lands it lost to Russia in 1860 the second Russia commits to total war on its western front. Taiwan is too difficult: crossing the ocean, powerful allies, entrenched defences. But Vladivostok and the Amur river region is defended by an overhyped, depleted, substandard, number-2-only-inside-Ukraine, army. It's just as good an offering to the people as Taiwan would be and a good legacy for Xi.

Go burn someone else’s CPU, I’ll install an adblocker.

Also, an app on iOS, even when malicious, can not read outside of its app boundaries, like passwords etc. It cannot side-load other apps. Only on Android.
There were many times in my programming career when I wanted to take a mental break and just do some kind of menial job for a few months. There are many routine jobs that don't require much training so it should be easy to do one for 6 months. The problem is generally that most people's career paths do not allow for this kind of thing. It looks bad on your resume to have 'truck driver' or 'shelf stocker' in-between tech jobs.
I'm not saying it was wrong, he can do whatever he wants. I am saying that it shows he is not longer a legit tech leader, he's a seller of hype.
Sure, if you have the documentation you could connect it to a parallel port (assuming it’s quick enough and level compatible) and write a device driver compatible with MSCDEX, but that’s also no easy task

Just to make it worse, often the things we are talking about are areas where network effects matter so the more you build the better the return on investment. Or in our case because we can afford to build so little our return on investment will be much less than it could be if we build more.

You could automate this with a script running at certain intervals.

Some will throw you a captcha sometimes, but not all and not always early enough.

I did not abuse this, I have observed this when developing a scraper.

Test headless before deploying was my most valuable take away.
wow, I am discovering this wonderfull little piece of hardware.

The only thing which is not clear to me is how ez it is to customize the firmware, for instance a public git repo (okay, I just skimmed their web site quickly, lazy I was...).

oh... it is russian... doh!
“App Store scams are easy and profitable”
I read the article, and... I get it. But something about this just seems weird to me. I grew up mostly on a family farm, worked every day of my life in some capacity since I was 9 or 10 years old, and did shit jobs to pay for college (which I eventually dropped out of right before graduation). I don't think my route into tech is that different from many of the other folks I've worked with... this guy lived a /very/ charmed and privileged existence compared to the average American tech worker, and going to work at an Amazon warehouse to get a reality check seems... patronizing somehow. I am glad he got a reality check, but I feel like there's another way to do this, or at least how to write about it.
He describes exactly what things he finds meaning in:

> For me, a lot of my meaning comes from two things. One is doing something in the world that feels like it's actually making things a little better somehow. And so contributing to society in some meaningful way.

The parent is commenting on how Philip's previous (and new!) work positions apparently fulfilled those criteria in no small way, in Philip's view. They are noting that it is striking that this is the case, as from the perspective of an outsider looking in, it does not appear that a director at facebook, nor an amazon warehouse worker, fulfills the stated criteria.
> I lost a lot of time in the morning to segfaults in the zig compiler. (https://github.com/jamii/hytradboi-jam-2022#day-4)

If anyone is interested in trying Brazilian jiu jitsu, just know it’s common to be completely confused for a while before the different positions/techniques start to click. It’s like a huge flowchart, and you’re randomly jumping into the middle somewhere.
We don't have selectable channels yet, but they're not needed as much in Java as they are in Go, because often multiple channels are used to signal cancellation, whereas in Java there's a standard mechanism for cancellation (Thread.interrupt() at the low level, with Future.cancel being higher level, and JEP 428's structured concurrency being higher level still https://openjdk.org/jeps/428).
fideuram removed the phisical tokens for 2fa and moved to SMS, saying that it was because of some european directive… I went to read the directive. It basically said to not use sms and avoid apps in favour of dedicated 2fa devices for banking.
I'm the opposite. I can remember all sorts of weird facts and numbers. I can remember the IP address of the DNS servers of a job I worked 20 years ago. And lyrics to songs I learned as a child.

But I will forget someone's name minutes after meeting them even if I try all the tricks of repeating it 3 times or associating it with a particular action.

As a side note, after I got COVID, for a few weeks I couldn't retain anything. I'd read some documentation and afterwards couldn't remember a single thing. I remember discussing it with my sister and her response was "welcome to the world of ordinary people!" It has made me more patient with people not getting what I've explained on the first hearing, so at least I've learned from my experience.
In high school I got rather adept at memorizing our marching band music. By my senior year I could play a song once or twice, and not have to look at it again for the rest of the semester.

While this kind of skill is nice to have, there is a curse to this kind of musical ability. I often find myself humming songs or fragments that I cannot place. Worse you cant just hum or whistle the tune into some app and have it tell you the song. And it's maddening when you know you don't have it quite right.

For example, for years I had a reoccurring little tune stuck in my head. I had nothing to go on other than a couple of bars of the song that repeated. One day I finally(!) figured it out when I got out an old copy of NES Mega Man, and selected Cutmans stage. The cutman theme had been stuck in my head for years, and it was quite the relief to know what the song was.
Those slips - I'd assume - tend to occur with people who have very high trust in memory. Sometimes something gets messed up. Doesn't even have to be due to forgetting something but rather overmemorizing versions of a song getting entangled upon accessing them. People who don't trust their memory will rehearse more thoroughly.
I wouldn't say there's 'absolutely no issue' buying one in the UK, I just checked on Pimoroni and they're all out of stock, every single one:

I wasn't able to actually find any website other than eBay at 100+ quid that have them in stock, even as kits.
Historically speaking, the local Taiwanese population never exerted much control in mainland China. The mainland leadership evacuated to Taiwan during the conflict with the communists
You can go indie. It usually doesn't pan out but works great if it does. You can also find jobs from local small business owners who usually cannot afford an IT team but still needs something done.

With such expressivity, there is a risk in a big project of individuals conjuring wildly different mechanisms to express similar if not identical ideas, losing out on understandability and consistency. The solution is often a strong style guide that everyone must read and follow. If Rust ever makes it to the kernel, I hope such a guide is written...
Their net worth doesn't really reflect their income though. Most farms are running on sub 1% profit margins. You dump 5 million dollars on your fields and you would consider $50,000 profit a successful year.
And now, we’re going to force a lot of women who agree that they have no business having kids, to have kids.

Would it be nice if they’d had the forethought, budget and/or power in their relationships to reliably use birth control? Yes, and not just because of unwanted kids, but because their lives would be all around better. When I say “budget,” I don’t just mean the direct cost of birth control, but all the stuff around it, like doctor’s appointments to get and maintain the prescription.

But those things don’t line up for a lot of women in America, and now we’ve taken away the main safety valve. Few of them can afford to fly to friendlier states on short notice - they’re often in the kind of jobs where you can’t just call in sick for a few days and expect to have a job to go back to.

Gonna be a fun next 20+ years.
I would. Imagine getting paid to be outdoors in the sun getting exercise. Imagine not having to spend an extra hour each day in a crowded gym doing boring repetitive movements because your sedentary job would ruin your body otherwise. Imagine not having posture and back problems at age 30. Imagine having the output of a hard days work be a physical object you can point to your son and say “see? I made that”.
