Not the OP but I typically hear such advice in the form of thinking of oneself and one's circumstances as being entirely one's responsibility.

>What if I wanted to be healthy, but have $<any number of chronic, debilitating conditions with no clear identified cause, mechanism, and or cure>?

Then the person in the hypothetical would need to decide to define healthy realistically for their condition. While it may be something you want, wanting something impossible is a non-starter.

>one of the hosts had an extremely distressing time trying to attribute why her abnormal mammogram result wasn't being followed up on by her doctor, despite daily calls for two weeks

Great example, in this case the host can decide to call another doctor's office to get a second opinion. Or following up in person. Or escalating to that doctor's leadership/board.
In addition, in Eve nearly all items (ships, modules, ammo, even starbases) are player-manufactured, player-hauled, and player-sold.
It was once possible to trawl through results pages 'near indefinitely'.

How I see it is that it is like how the music search works with Google Assistant. It can do it for 90% of the songs you are likely to hear without an online connection.

For anything else it can do the search on the server.

When you search something it is not as if a billion Google servers are consulted with the results delivered accordingly. The nearest box just knows 90% of the 'answers' and you get whatever that is, rather than a 'real search'.

If you enter in a specific code, e.g. a ISBN number, then that is like the 'unusual song' that needs actual looking up.

However it works, it is a good hustle. Actually nearer to 'the hitch hikers guide to the galaxy' in having a compiled book of answers.

> Is it possible to retrofit these to burn H2

Yes and no. Yes in theory. But hydrogen burns much hotter, has a higher flame speed (spark -> boom!, not woosh!), and burns in a much greater range of concentrations in air, so leaks are...dangerous. Hydrogen is also very good at leaking.

I wouldn't have it near my house.

Edit: insulate and triple-glaze. Then you have a much smaller problem to solve, for both heating and cooling.

Ok but remember that that's by-weight. Energy drops by a factor of 10 for each trophic level. One pound of meat requires 2.5-3 pounds of grain and 1847 gallons of fresh water.

It also requires 3 pounds of grain and 4.5 gallons of water per gallon of milk and dairy is almost 20% of the waste.

The scale of this waste is mind-boggling.
Where is the interior decor for “battling depression”
Cory seems to be unwilling to consider a third explanation. Both money and vision are useful. To say it’s mostly money means that most venture capital would be deployed successfully. It is not. You need some combination of smart people, money, timing, vision, and luck.

Criticizing investors because they toyed with what to us are vast sums of money is perhaps disingenuous. I’m sure he talks to his friends the same way about a $100 dinner check, but there are plenty of poor people who would regard that as unimaginably decadent and corrupt. Sorry, but a quarter billion dollars isn’t that much to those investors, and they know Elon Musk well. They understand intuitively that he’s a good person to risk the money on.
> neither is Apple

it is.
Lyft turned me off in the beginning. Pink mustache. Fist bump. Small talk. Some sort of hip cult. What the heck... I just wanted to go from A to B. I'm sure I'm not alone.

But I've switched to Lyft though mainly because a lot of friends work there.
Why TIF vs for example PNG? Are there any benefits?
Same era - but I had a "cheat mode" ;; We ran the Intel DRG and ran this on a bank of Intels highest end machines on a T3 to our gaming lab, just when 56K got released... and were able to effecitvely MASS PK players with 6 accounts with 100 sneak, two rogues, 2 dread lords and two great lords.... we would taunt with our dreads, run, hide, and appear with our great lords of same name and get attacked ruining the reputation of others, allowing them to kill us but specifically die next to our hidden sneaks who would loot us... and run our bullshit back to our castle.

We had a 7th castle butler account who all he would do was manage keys...

our third member of our guild got wasted one night and managed to lose our rune stones... but we had a teleport mech where we had the courtyard covered in bags of wheat? and in order to tele to the courtyard, you had to have the butler acct go pick up the bag to the tele spot such that you could zap in...

Then, our guy, Draygor,,, he accidentally got whacked with the rune stone before he could make it to the bank, and the Japanese Guild spent MONTHS waiting for us to fuckup with an account that allowed them to portal into our castle... then they fn hid until we showed up...

We used to teleport dragons onto the roof such that we could trap them behind chests and practice our spells until we had 100 in every skill ...

but we went to vacation, DRAYGOR (largest pot grower in BC Canada) who had a T1 to his house

We also had a bugged weapon that was an axe/or/hammer cant recall -- but it was one-hit-one kill no matter what.

We were actually followed for a while with that bugged weapon as we would trade it back and forth... and chased by invisible mods... (they basically have a super account that their sprite was invisible and they would follow us around....

That aside from the hitman series - is my golden games.
Idea: Amazon gives full Kindle copy to expire when hard copy book delivers?
Sadly I don’t think it can be done. I mean sure, the game could be written, that’s not a problem. The trick is to get people to show up and in particular get players to play who aren’t “UO fans.”

UO was amazing because a ton of people played it who weren’t UO fans or even MMO fans because such things didn’t exist. The players were simply RPG fans wanting to try something new and what happened was magical and serendipitous.

Now any game that tries to do the same will only attract UO fans or classic MMO fans. That original audience of people who were essentially naïve but open to a new experience are gone.
> The liability isn't on the project regardless.

OK random person on the internet whose word I should accept on a subtle legal question. Tools that assist in violating the law are often themselves classed as illegal or carry liability for the producers. For instance, tools that assist in bypassing copyright protections, and tools that assist in breaking locks to name but a few.

Go ahead and quote me some rock solid precedent that would shield OpenWRT from any kind of liability if they wifi enabled distributed images with illegal configurations. A precedent that would apply in every jurisdiction mind you.

> You're literally a 'why open source keeps sucking' quote machine.

You made your case, the people actually doing the work clearly disagreed, so time to move on. Use your own time to make your perfect solution if it's that important to you, instead of demanding others do the same.

OpenWRT already provides the image builder, so all you technically need to do is host it: https://openwrt.org/docs/guide-user/additional-software/imag...

Best of luck with that.
> Neurotypical people will find significant overlap with other neurotypical people's internal experiences and therefore assume that's objective fact

Wouldn't it be funny if the whole world ran on this phenomenon? And even funnier: if there were large organizations whose duty was to coordinate and normalize people's perceptions of what is going on?

I wonder what that would look like in action.
Both act as forms of constraint solving or constraint optimization. A lot of problems can be solved in terms of constraints filtering a large solution set; control theory happens to be an elegant way of describing certain kinds of solutions using analog feedback, and solvers that can divide and conquer and employ heuristical prioritization produce classic AI algorithms like A*, while more brute-force approaches tend to resemble ML in relying on "parallel number crunch".
Yea but now we can see the ecological impact of tens (hundreds?) of millions of people doing that and it doesn’t work.
To be honest, I somehow believe that car service, delivery, and payment should have been an infrastructure like electricity and partially controlled or highly regulated by government.

Some day it'll be like that.

Having worked those kinds of hard jobs whenever I complain about my job in tech I remind myself of those jobs and find solace in my relatively cushy job.

You know what is funny, coding, security, linux, etc... were my escape from the misery of those jobs.

I am so grateful for my job, it is better to die or something than to go back to those jobs. Glad that guy found solace but man, the politics is always 10x worse than office jobs, everyone has little to lose so they act like it, you get over the physical stuff fast but it still takes a toll, very very little time off, always struggling with money but I never fell into the "credit" trap so I was ok, but anyone that did credit if any kind (car payment, credit cards, etc..) or had kids worked a second job. You could get fired for sitting down.

I had manual labor job once, my coworkers were illegal immigrants and felons on probation. I was "laid off" (so i can get unemployment -- but I've never been on it) because I didn't look busy enough, although I finished all the work fast, never sat down and kept cleaning all the already clean stuff to look busy.

Even the nicer blue collar jobs are ruined by tech. GPS and microphones everywhere so they can squeeze every last sweat out of you. But then when they burn you out and lose out on their training cost or can't replace you they wonder why.
Hong Kong’s electoral system is based on this, too.
for example, EVE Online is mostly done via python (server side at least - not the frontend iirc).

In fact, i reckon the reason a lot of games would have crashes is because it's written in an unsafe language like C++.

And the reason there's so many successful plugins for minecraft is _because_ it's in an "easy" language like java.
> Forking or not should still be Ukrainian business, not Russia or US.

Agreed 100% - but once the US decided to meddle in Ukraine shouldn't we have expected Russia would respond? I mean, that's been written in stone since the 1990's that Russia would not play games when it came to western encroachments in Ukraine.

People can talk sovereignty all they want, but how do we think the US would respond to China playing the same games in Mexico? Or for a real life example, the Soviets setting up shop in Cuba. Spheres of influence are real and crossing those lines start wars.

Consider the sheer scale: people sell 200 million UO gold for $10. Can you imagine every gold piece having a unique UUID? Even if you didn’t use 256 bit hashes, even at 64 bits you’d be talking about 1.6gb per $10 worth of UO gold.

UXTO would’ve been a neat technology to have to experiment with at least.

Memory was at enough of a premium that even in the tagging system we made in the article it was just for the rarest items.
One of the challenges is finding the right proportional scale.

If the difficulty or fun of say blacksmithing nice items for the community. And you have it balanced out that you expect 20% of players be blacksmith. But then either 10 or 30% be blacksmiths either items skyrocket in price and make it unobtainable to most or the floor bottoms out making it not viable for most to engage in a market.

I think its solvable but itd require a lot of dynamic based systems to scale properly based upon number of players in each categories of life skill limits.

With that said, check out a game called Eco. They have life skill limits and force cooperation on small scale (30 day per server wipe). I think you can reasonably have 2 or 3 professions of 12 and people buy and sell from each other.
Flu kills around 35,000 people a year in the US, which amounts to 100 deaths per day. Covid is killing five times more people right now.

You're not supposed to do it because it is terribly insecure but you can implement iteration in bash by writing a program that writes a bash script and piping into bash. For instance,

ls | awk '{print "command " $1}' | bash

Somehow the syntax to write loops in bash evades my memory (half because it is unconventional, half because I don't write them as often as I do in other languages) I know there is xargs which I am supposed to use instead of that above pipeline but I find myself having to read the whole man page every time I use it. As wrong as it, awk-bash pipelines are concise and easy to write.

> For decades, researchers believed cats were domesticated in Egypt around 4,000 years ago, writes Stephanie Pappas at LiveScience. But a 9,500-year-old human burial in Cyprus that included cat bones found in 2004 upended that idea, and another study from 2014 indicates that domestic cats were bred in upper Egypt 6,000 years ago.

For comparison, estimates place dog domestication as having taken place anywhere between 29,000 and 14,000 years ago.
I largely agree with the perspective of that video.

Specifically thinking of the difference between EQ and WoW, I do think there's one objective difference though: downtime. It wasn't uncommon to spend minutes recovering from a fight, or wait 20+ minutes between spawns if you were camping a particular spot. At the time we moaned about it, so WoW came along, and "solved" the complaint.

In hindsight, the downtime was the best part of the game. Chatting with strangers in a pickup group. Gambling. Friendly duels. Dumb feats of strength. Mutual grumbling about waiting for the boat. My fondest memories were all the things around the gameplay, but that doesn't make the game irrelevant. It was an excuse and a reason, but also a setting. The combination was intoxicating.
Yes; not needing a full time Linux kernel developer and electrical engineer debugging your hardware and drivers because the SoC you're using was abandoned by the vendor 2 years after release is a big benefit.
Oh, and a good aside: thanks to player exploits the nodes themselves weren’t necessarily trustworthy (such as duping exploits across shards, not just areaservs).

Like I said, not saying we “needed blockchain”, but when AWS released QLDB I was like “ohhhh, that would’ve been useful” since, you know, forging log files is a thing.
Could you mux the data of the coins?

If you have a stack of gold containing 5 uuid and mix it with another stack of 3 uuid but only support 5 uuid per stack. Then calculate proportional weightings which 5 you store.

You could probably find a way to try and wash the money but I think it could be done with right heuristics to catch a good majority of use cases but maybe not all.
Having something productive to do and a sense of purpose could definitely help in the short term.

However - he worked there for all of six weeks. I can see how it's helpful to have this option available for someone who needs income in the short term to make ends meet. It's the same with driving for Uber or Doordash, etc.

However, we are too dependent on Amazon as a society (USA). Partly this is because suburbanization and zoning requires driving out to the edge of town to shop at big box stores, and expensive urban real estate means smaller stores with limited variety of products.

Couldn't they just use a Merkle tree, like git does, to keep track of the history? I think that's what he's referring to here. They don't need proof of work if the code that can modify the history is trusted.
"It takes practice and repetition like with most programming languages. "

Does it support hot reload? We use Quarkus heavily at work and one of the nifty feature is its ability to hot reload (fast restart to be specific) within few millisec, which makes our development quite a joy, kind of spoiled by that to be honest.
If not now, any plan to support it in future?
4chan unironically. The niche hobby boards are a great way to get immersed in a hobby.

Weird that no one has yet to actually discuss `xonsh`, which the video is actually about.

However, I'm about to do the same lol, and come out as a bash apologist against the sea of derision here. I've spent a decade writing code in maybe 10 different languages, and bash is still what I write the most of -- and its by choice! If you're writing a lot of code that calls other code, bash is kind of the default choice, since that's literally what the shell is for.

Once you spend enough time with it, I actually find bash to be surprisingly elegant in what it affords the author in its terseness. Combined with other CLI utilities' own concision, it's an incredibly powerful environment. Sure it can start to appear arcane to unfamiliar folks, but you can work to make it significantly more readable than most people would have you believe. And with e.g. shellcheck, you can do away with a great deal of common footguns.

Not only that but diablo 2 had such a prolific duping problems of this 1 ring. The ring itself became a currency.

I worked on the drivers and firmware for a few ISDN cards back in 1997-1999. One of my performance optimizations for the BRI cards cut ping times from ~30ms to ~16ms. The Motorola MC68302's puny 68000 CPU took a long time to memcpy() packets from the buffer the HDLC controller would DMA them into back to the shared memory with the host. Eliminating that copy was more of an improvement than I expected.

The PRI (T1) cards using Intel i960 CPUs, which were quite nice embedded CPUs. The HDLC controller was capable of using individual 64k channels or bonding them together for fractional of full T1.

It was a bit late in the lifetime of ISDN, but I learned a heck of a lot about embedded systems from that job.

I would. I enjoy working on software, but honestly, the most satisfying job I ever had was a janitor, cleaning office buildings. Seriously. The job was at night - I'm a night owl. The job was performed almost entirely in solitude - I hate people LOL. I could listen to music all night and it never interrupted my work. No meetings or drawn out decisions. No "case of the Mondays". I worked my butt off physically, but at the end of my shift, my brain was still totally fresh. I used to look at it like I was getting paid to exercise because the work was so physical. I slept like a damn baby when I was a janitor. But, most of all, I really enjoyed cleaning: coming in at night, looking at a total disaster area, working my butt off, then leaving just before dawn with everything looking spotless. I took pride in it.

Kinda funny how most of the software projects I work on now are around hygiene, cleaning up old code and dead configs, stuff like that. Once a janitor, always a janitor.

Oh yeah, the worst thing about being a janitor isn't the pay. It's being treated like shit by literally everyone. People can be assholes, especially when they're talking to the janitor.
I don't mean to assume malice where incompetence will suffice. You're correct that its generally inexperienced instructors, and in this case was a very experienced instructor.

Is it possible then, that this very experienced instructor, experienced a difficult time adapting to teaching in a new setting, and failed to adapt their examination?

The solution likely isn't for pandemic students to be told they have experience they don't have, but the structure in place created a situation where an entire class experienced the fallout from their professor's failure. In this case, the professor was fired. In many more, students bear the same punishments (both to their academic records and actual learning), while inexperienced instructors are simply told to do better next time.

Why shouldn't students have the same option to do better next time?
Out of curiosity, did this create any weird dynamics with your friends, or expectations for the future? Also, how did you decide how much to give everyone? If one person makes $80k and one makes $30k, did you send the same amount to everyone?

Thanks for sharing your experience. Sounds like a blast!
