With many news articles on the North Korean missile that flew over Japan yesterday, one obvious question is not even mentioned: why didn't Japan shoot it down? But an article from 2017, at the timing of the previous occurrence might explain it. Maybe it simply cant'.

Even in THE press conference of the Nobel Physics prize, one cannot expect to get the facts fully communicated clearly. Superdeterminism is a local hidden-variable theory that reproduces the predictions of quantum mechanics.

Edit: Sabine Hossenfelder has explained this much better than I ever can: See for example http://backreaction.blogspot.com/2021/12/does-superdetermini...

If I remember correctly the first conditionals in shell scripting were literally just calls to the program named "test" I believe or something like that

They still are, in a sense. [ is a synonym for test, and ] is a mandatory no-op argument to it, when used as a “built-in” syntax. You can use [ outside of if as well, like

[ <condition> ] && <then-action>
test <condition> && <then-action>

Have you used a Nintendo Switch? I kinda doubt it. The Nintendo Switch is way more powerful than the 360 and it shows. Go play something that was on both consoles like Skyrim, Crysis, Doom 3 etc side by side. The Switch versions run better with more effects and run at a higher resolution. Most Nintendo games run well, Mario Kart 8 is 1080p 60FPS (how many 360 games are that like 6?), Mario Odyssey is 900p 60FPS, Bowser's Fury is 60FPS docked, Metroid Dread is 900p 60FPS docked.

None of my Switch controllers have broken either and they've seen more than 30 hours use.

I have both a Switch and Steam Deck. The Steam Deck is good and more powerful but it's also considerably bigger, louder, heavier with worse battery life and I've run into far more issues in the 2 months with it on verified games alone than all my time with the Switch. Using it docked is clunky, ditto doing local play. It's still a PC at heart which is fine but the Switch has an ease of use factor the Steam Deck simply does not have.
ZFS stores mount points and even NFS shares in its metadata[1], so more than most others.

In about 2012, I remember an important Professor who heard me mention QVT explain to me what the text actually meant — quoting text at me which I had written, and which did not mean what they thought it meant! I tried not to laugh.

Damned, I like their boards/schematics/wiki. Single-page wiki entries with /most/ of the info I want (connector=FOO, voltage=BAR, power converter=BAZ (oh, so it's claimed 12V, but commenfary says 9-14V is definitely in the range and the chip manufacturer for the power regulator (like on my NanoPC-T4) says I'll be safe with 5.5-28V).

Cool.

Their boards do have some problems (none that have bothered me for long - look at the schematics and realize that that port is easy to over-tax so swap the cables and life is good), the different software distro's (Ubuntu this, Ubuntu that, Buildroot, Android Xx an Yy) are nice as examples when I'm replacing it with my own.

Yes! That is why deliberate practice requires some mentors or guiding factor. It's really hard to invest in deliberate pratice and most of us overlook it! When practicing quality > quantity.

I gave up a lot of hobbies because I didn't have mentor or guidance factor to help me get past the wall. You can only learn upto a certain point on your own. After that, it requires quite a lot of attention and focus to not suck.

Not quite that but I ordered an Eaton 3S 850, which is a beefy power strip with built-in battery and looks like a decent compromise for cases where you don't really need a huge noisy rack-mounted UPS, but something that can do a bit more than just a Raspberry Pi (i.e. several Pis plus the router).
I'm sure that's a totally valid excuse for exploiting the people working there, union-busting, and generally being a shitty exploitative corporation.

You almost certainly can't teach whatever it is that makes a great artist great. Just like you can't really teach the mindset and thought processes that make a great engineer great. But you can teach techniques, and you can encourage practice of the craft, and teaching exposes people to ideas that they might not be aware of otherwise.

Good teaching is very rarely "this is a fact you must memorise", but putting the right environment in place for someone to do something themselves. If someone goes to art school, has a class on pottery, learns how to use the wheel and the kiln, and then becomes a renowned potter, did they learn that at school? Probably not the part where they became renowned - but the school did provide them with the tools to get there.
These are amazing ETL skills, but a big red flag, I thought I was watching the revival of the infamous Overly Attached Girlfriend. As someone said there, this is great and scary at the same time.

Also, how come 2 people be so ok with Google having all their location history? There are only two reasons why someone leaves that function enabled:

A) they are Google employees
B) totally ignorant to the fact that Google tracks them
Love this. Such a fun, creative, philosophical project.
The Nobel citation reads as if John S. Bell should’ve gotten the prize
> If Paul and John weren't in any way unusual, The Beatles wouldn't have been that special a band.

For an argument, this is question-begging, but I'm not going to argue that The Beatles were ordinary, because provably they changed music, and this is both a criticism of them and a compliment. However, for all we know, if they hadn't been so prolific in performing and marketing themselves from their earlier career, we might have missed them entirely. The more a band plays, the more familiar their music becomes, the more popular they become, the more a band plays, the more familiar their music becomes, the more popular they become, the more they play, etc.

Though it should be noted that whomever is judging these kinds of achievements of covering a song from memory isn't exactly critically comparing the original side by side with the reproduction. "It sounded exactly the same," is likely embellishment by someone without a trained ear. Picking up a song is such a common notion that it has its own idiom, namely "picking up a song."
Sure you can front static assets with the free Cloudflare tier...

[a] which is fine if you're happy with the inflexibility that free Cloudflare offers. And you live in a country where the free tier doesn't have horrible routing (eg use the Sydney AWS region, put Cloudflare in front of it and then watch your traffic to/from Sydney take a round trip via the US or Singapore)

[b] every single AWS service charges egress fees (ie Cloudfront doesn't help at all)

[c] this does nothing for non-static assets

Am I missing something?
jasonshen's blog is awesome! And regarging the case, that is basically what my father did. Left a corporate job to run his own small business 25 years ago and he has been much happier ever since.
1. Not a lot of work, probably a day to move things.
2. Almost none. I used Heroku and understood what it was doing on a very surface level. I knew I could push my repo and my project would automagically be "there", but since I was early on in my learning process, I didn't know for sure what was happening.
So the migration was a great experience to understand how to setup my website, how to setup a reverse proxy, how to prepare the certificates, how to secure a linux box and many many more (it's an ongoing process!)
3. Extremely. I am now a huge supporter of IAAS in general. I think all the things I learned are valuable in general and widely applicable. I know what an lsblk does, I know what ufw allow/deny does and so on. Hell, at the most basic level I understand how to use nano to edit some config files, how to search or edit files from a terminal. I really enjoy it and I went as far as to setup my own home server.
4-5. A lot cheaper now. I had one website running and another hobby project and that was 7$ a month. I have my website now (static page with caddy as reverse proxy), pihole vps, another VPS used to do backup checks, VPN server - all these are free, except the website which runs on the cheapest Hetzner vps and I could probably run other things on it.
6. I think everyone should spend some time deploying their apps o a remote server, securing it and accessing it. Even if you never use this again, it will help you understand how to manage all of these things and get a better idea of the information flow from start to finish. Learning how to poke around a command line is also very helpful.
I'll still order from uber eats, ain't got no time for cooking and hiring a profession chef at this stage is prohibitly expensive.
Fun fact: whatever you can do with this data, Google can do as well!
If you are interested in tinkering with personal data exports using SQL, my friend and I made Bionic: https://github.com/bionic/bionic.

The README includes an example of calculating songs you often listen to while walking/driving/using public transit (by combining Google Maps and Spotify data).
To be fair it does feel like something changed, online games used to feel a lot more social. As a kid you could just jump into an MMO and make new friends, that seems to have gone away now.

I guess they served as a proxy for what we now have with Discord, and now that we have "the real thing", its kind of naturally gone away. Which is a shame, because meeting people over Discord is much more difficult imo, or at very least not as beginner friendly.
What are these "rust needs" that are incompatible with "kernel needs"?

Over a timescale of 20 million years there'll be Ice Ages when a significant portion of the planet is covered in ice, so I can see how that will affect albedo then.

As I understand it, the extent of cloud cover affecting the planet's albedo (and whether that offsets the warming from the greenhouse effect from water vapour) is still an open question in meteorology.

I'm absolutely not an expert on any of this - I was genuinely asking the question out of interest.
> The court’s decision suggests that parodists are in the clear only if they pop the balloon in advance by warning their audience that their parody is not true.

Finally. Of course journalists do not need to warn anyone.

I suggest next step is to force Hollywood to issue a warning before every parody movie. Or better before every comedy.

Laughing is dangerous. Violence is fine.
That's my point. Why having all the setup (and size!) for doing 110/220V when you just need it for 5V USB.

Still a nice option!

"Early Retirement Extreme" by Jacob Lund Fisker. It's not your typical "rich dad/poor dad" financial advice book, but rather a systematic approach to seeing the economy aspect of your life in a new way. Interesting read just to see his perspective and have one or two takeaways from it, if nothing else.

Git Worktrees
description of git worktrees, in particular their usefulness for the workflow around openjdk backports
I think you are not asking the right questions. Most people don’t really know what they are really good at. Very few people end up where they are because they decided “I’m good at this particular thing, so I should pursue it” even if it looks like so. You can get better at that “thing” that you regularly do. You should find what motivates you to work more - is that lots of money, or social prestige or relaxing lifestyle? Would you rather be working in solitary or be talking to lots of people? What time of the day do you feel like working? Find answers to a numerous questions about the ideal lifestyle/career you would want. Then it will be easier for you to narrow down to a few options. When you’re motivated and productive, you will automatically start getting better at what you pursue. Before hopping from one project to another, ask yourself if really need to build it. Let go of some unfinished products, and only work on the ones that you are sure you don’t need external help. If you can buy something (a tool, template, design) with money you have, buy it instead of building it. Free yourself. Don’t occupy yourself with tasks that you can delegate (eg freelancers in other countries, etc.). Then at the end you’re left with only the work that you’re good at.

There is a funny aspect to this. Registry and registrars already has a tradition to sell dns blocking registrations for a fee, and when copyright rights holder (or even the police/government) want to block something, that fee is still required and it need to be paid each year. As an example, when it came to piratebay.se the Swedish police budget has been paying it every year since the court made the decision to take it. It not much for a single domain but it does not scale and the police really do not want more of them.

It is for this reason I suspect that rights holders targets ISPs. Supporting a block list is in comparison free and ISP has yet to start to take a yearly fee each time they add a new domain to the list.
For the greater portion of a year, I can no longer upvote comments. I can upvote submissions though.

I suspect this was mitigation against my upvoting comments which seemed unfairly grayed.

It's very kind of them to leave me the arrow icon, which at least pretends to accept my input.

I think an interesting exercise which may or may not be relevant to you is to decouple what you want to be really good at with what you are interested in. I find it a common scenario where people want to get into different fields either because of the perks of the hobby/career or they want to see themselves as good at it.

An interesting exercise is to take breaks from certain areas (probably more feasible with hobbies than with career), journal regularly and think wider than you're used to. If everything you have tried career wise is in software (for example) why not pick up a book about psychology, philosophy, languages, hardware etc.

It's also worth considering that every scenario will have some form of stress attached, one of the questions to ask is what types of stress are you willing to work through to gain from.

Again this advice may or may not be relevant to you, all the best with your journey on it!

Curiosity is now a red flag? I find the whole thing cute. She's not using the data for tracking down Dan and making him her boyfriend, they are already together and she simply wanted to see if they walked past each other in the past.

I do have my location history activated, and so does lots of people around me. I'm neither a Google employee nor am I ignorant that Google tracks me both physically and digitally.

But being able to have a timeline of where I am at times have been both helpful and interesting, so I'm willing to trade that data for the functionality I receive for it.

If you do know of a better solution that gives me the same data but is not Google, please feel free to share it. I haven't found anything like that that completely abuses my battery at the same time and also guarantees to not sell my data.
I periodically experiment with location history. I currently have it enabled to be able to see my own history and I also record it locally with a third-party app that saves it to my phone. I've compared the location data and looked for patterns or anything at all interesting. I've also thought about building an app to basically give you the same functionality as Google's location history while keeping all the data out of the cloud and in your direct possession. I think it can be useful and interesting to have this data on yourself, I just think Google shouldn't have it.
It feels like there was a short period of time after ES6 that much more proposals were made and things progressed faster. I remember in that period of time it felt like match and pipes are just around the corner as well as bigger changes like decorators (and I bet this is why so many libraries rely on decorators right now even though they are still stuck in the review process).

I would love to see the match proposal coming through (especially now that it was added to all the major PLs) also I think a proposal like Type Annotations as comments can really improve the lives of engineers right now. Still, kudos to everyone involved with it.
And no, I didn't miss anything. Fear of crime ≠ racism. And unconsciously associating crime with blackness also is not racism when, for example:

"According to the FBI, African-Americans accounted for 39.6% of all homicide offenders in 2019, with whites 29.1%, and "Other" 3.0%".[1]

So 14% of the population, but almost 40% of the homicides[2]. That's a rate almost 3x higher than you would expect from the population numbers. And whites are 61.6% of the population, so their share of homicides is slightly less than 1/2 of the expected rate. If you combine these two figures, you find that blacks have a 6x higher per/capita share of homicide offenders than whites.

Now this is all very unfortunate, problematic etc. But unconsciously associating blackness more strongly with crime than whiteness is not racism, but sound statistical reasoning based on the real world[3]. And humans are generally very good natural unconscious statisticians, particularly when it comes to assessing personal danger.

And please note that I am not in any way claiming that this association is "intrinsic" or that it is fair, or saying anything about the causes of the disparity in crime rates whatsoever[4]. I am just showing the unambiguous fact that the association is based on reality.

Also note that even if, in spite of the facts, you still hold that associating blackness with crime is solely or primarily due to racism, it would still not support your original assertion that "For example, when whites are told that the legal system is unjust to blacks, they tend to support it more." and certainly not your assertion that "most whites do, at some level, prefer blacks not to do well." That's just complete BS you made up.

[1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Race_and_crime_in_the_United_S...

[2] Homicides tend to be a good indicator because they are fairly unambiguous (there's a dead person) and also tend to have less chance of inconsistent investigation than other crimes.

[3] Note that this only applies to such unconscious associations as was the case here. It does not justify other sorts of inferences, particularly on an individual level.

[4] Except that, particularly for homicides, it isn't the result of unfair policing practices in any way that comes close to explaining the actual disparity, see [2] as well as the research on racial disparities in the criminal justice system, which came to more a 10% divergence, so nowhere near the 6x difference we see here.
