How? All it does is set the rate of rent increase to e.g. 4% a year, it does nothing about the zoning of the lot. For example, people always cite something like someone in greenwich village getting a deal on an apartment, and that is somehow constraining development, while ignoring that the neighborhood of greenwich village is built to over 90% of its zoned capacity, and you cant add very many more units there even if you could get away with renting them for a million dollars a month and had permission to level whatever building was on the lot previously. Plenty of cities actually saw significant downsizing to zoned capcity since the 1960s, when things were certainly more affordable by most accounts. Sometimes by factors of 4 or more fold reductions in zoned capacity when you account for population size. The city of LA itself for example is built to over 90% of its zoned capacity. 2.

Report what? The stack trace saying the extent tree is bad? There are always going to be consistency errors when you're dealing with filesystems, especially when you're non-ECC memory. They need to be robust enough that the fsck tools can resolve that. From my experience with BTRFS, doesn't do that.
Now i use Tumblr as a delicious replacement. It's quite serving its purpose very well right now.
I see the sibling comment, so here's my two cents -

I wonder if there's some confusion because LinuxBoot is being talked about relative to Oxide. LinuxBoot isn't trying to do that.

It was originally a project called "LinuxBIOS" at Los Alamos National Labs to get their supercomputer to boot up in a reasonable amount of time. Once the team started down the path of "rip out the legacy BIOS" they discovered that a lot of things become simpler.

LinuxBoot was written with the goal of booting up the machine to GRUB, like this:

(CPU Reset) > LinuxBIOS > GRUB > Linux

See the description of this video (though the video is worth the watch): https://vimeo.com/724454408 "Why Linux? Because firmware always evolves to become an operating system. Rather than wait for evolution to take its course, LANL decided to save some time and use Linux as the BIOS: hence LinuxBIOS."

And the answer to your question: "could you start booting up userland directly?" I think if the LinuxBoot authors were around they would mention something about how constrained the on-board flash chip is (SPI Flash). There's room for LinuxBoot and maybe GRUB, but there is not room for all the drivers needed to get to userland.

Yesterday, Sber announced that it was transferring the official website of Sberbank to the Russian security certificate issued by the Ministry of Digital Development.

Today the site has already become inaccessible to many users. Without additional installation of a special certificate, Chrome, Opera and Firefox report that the site can be used by scammers, but offer to bypass this ban at your own risk. Safari throws an error and under no circumstances loads the bank's main page. At the same time, Sberbank Online works without restrictions.

To avoid the error, you can manually install the Mintsifra certificate, which takes less than a minute. Or you can download Yandex Browser , which already has a certificate built into it.

In UBI everyone gets the same amount of money.

Looks like this might finally make Firefox not use at least 30% of CPU at all times, which meant that with Firefox running my 2020 Intel 13" had really terrible battery life and was always just a little bit of extra load away from annoying fan noise. Chrome/Brave never had any such issue even with hundreds of tabs so I don't think it's my particular choice of websites or the like. Will try the new version once I find time, I really hope it'll do the trick.
>I pay anyone for services

What service exactly am I getting for being robbed?

Conversely, in the correct metaphor, if I buy a fraudulently priced stock for $100 and sell for $0.01, I get to write off the $99.99.

Seems kind of arbitrary that 'a buyer' is the difference between a write-off and not.
The amounts they need are high. They’re trying to get 1000 people to kick in $100 so they can get a multimillion dollar loan. Trying to get that is hard enough, getting them to kick in 3-4K each is nearly impossible, even if you can sell “shares”.
I've decided to relearn everything, starting at the very beginning. First up is the Chris Pine book. He's a good writer. It's very simple but fun.

I was curious and after a bit of looking around I found "Introduction to Computation and Programming Using Python with Application to Computational Modeling and Understanding Data", third edition, by John V. Guttag, © 2021. Looks pretty good, though it's a more traditional approach.

Basically, any language you might be interested in will have introductory books.

If you have trouble getting ahold of books, you can try (1) www.pdfdrive.com and (2) z-lib.org . The first one feels a little less sketchy but the second one has almost everything I look for, on every subject. I've had no trouble with either one so far, but use at your own risk.

Basically, I don't want to run Windows. But I do want to run some current Windows software -- mostly games and design tools. I don't think I'm a major exception; I wonder if there have been any surveys. Linux users who want to run current Windows software are likely much of the user base.

Lately I've been playing a recent DirectX 11 game via Wine. Worked out of the box. I think it might be a bit slower than under Windows natively, but that's sort of moot since it hits the cap at 60 fps either way. I've used Wine regularly for about 15 years. I used to be surprised when new software (especially DX-based) worked under Wine. These days, I'm more surprised when it doesn't.
Apparently it was fine to rename "flatten" to "flat," because that's what they did, but it wasn't okay to rename "flatten" to "smoosh." What's the difference?

> at 60 fps!!!

Poor copy editors couldn't display their ignorant disdain for all that geeky gaming stuff better than stating that game that had a fixed 35 updates per second loop (to match 70 Hz video mode) ran at 60 fps.

(I know that interpolated rendering has been available in ports for a long time. The engine still runs at 35, because interpolating it would drop all compatibility, and rely on arbitrary decisions on how to resample and predict trajectories defined by original constants.)

Also, something in the narcissist manner of presentation tells me the whole thing can be just a gameplay video processed with libcaca, seemingly without even aligning the source and output resolution, if we pay attention to the edges.
I assume they mean figuring out what mechanism they're using to bind and attacking it to prevent formation.
It's interesting to me, because it doesn't seem that hard or wrong to tax stagnant dollars. And I suspect it would solve a lot of the inflation woes that might happen with UBI, as well as a lot of the US economic woes.

Every time we look at fixing an issue like this, it seems like we're only looking at the half of the problem that involves creating the benefit, because paying for it is unpopular. But wealth accrual in this economy is a net drag. The tax side of trickle-down means that we're only ever working with a trickle to power major public benefits that could otherwise consistently run our economy, and provide robustness where we have a lot of weakness.

You could pay for UBI by heavily taxing stock portfolios of the richest people. + 10% tax on the richest 1% of stock portfolios would raise about 2.3T (source CNBC). It would also take money from people who "can't spend it all" (something Bezos has literally claimed, he has trouble with), and give it to the 300M people who actually have something to spend it on, as evidenced by the huge boom in the economy created by the stimulus package.

It's not that you can't find the money to tax this, it's that no one has the political will to tax anything.
It's interesting that the games media has treated this as some totally unknown fact on an obscure blog, when it feels like it even qualifies as common knowledge among HN (and obviously painting joel as some random ex-microsoft developer who just happens to have a blog is similar)

2. Setting Google as the default, and easily changed, search engine does not equate to giving Google access to your data.

3. How long-term are we talking about? Because since 2008, 14 years so far, most investment seems to have been made into the iOS App Store, with more than $260 billion[0] paid to developers so far.

The web is a great target platform, I'm glad we agree! You give up a lot in terms of discoverability and potential promotion, and you have to do some extra work to manage payments and so on, plus you have to overcome the natural distrust for paying a new vendors, but you absolutely do get to keep 100% of whatever you can convince people to pay you, for sure. Or even better, don't charge! That's why the web is... an alternative that isn't losing, let's say.

If the value of living in Bay Area was that low, you'd have a drastic decrease of rental prices. The same is with NYC - rents are considerably higher than pre-pandemic.

Calling California a "cesspool" is at best personal opinion.
> Microsoft tracked down the bug and added specific code to Windows 95 that looks for SimCity. If it finds SimCity running, it runs the memory allocator in a special mode that doesn’t free memory right away. That’s the kind of obsession with backward compatibility that made people willing to upgrade to Windows 95.

Impressive; now, if only we could trick them into considering "privacy" a core feature and add "backward compatibility" for it in newest Windows releases, we'd be golden.
> I’m also weakly curious why jemalloc needs so much locking anyway?

I'd love to hear from someone with more firsthand knowledge, but from a quick read of the implementation details for jemalloc, it seems there is a balance that has to be struck between lock contention and memory fragmentation. Too few arenas and lock contention slows you down, too many arenas (or enabling thread-specific caches) and the cache misses from fragmentation will slow you down.

the blog post also mentioned that Firefox's jemalloc is highly customized, maybe firefox's specific profile gets value out of a more lock-heavy strategy.

I've been using ETW events lately, and discovered there is almost no support for them in Wine, and maybe just some in ReactOS.
That's really less of a humor tag and more of a condescending sarcasm tag though. I don't see it used as a joke so much as to do an imitation of someone else speaking, repeating something they said (or might allegedly say) in such a way as to make it appear stupid.

True, though largely limited to DNA necessary for its functions. I don’t have a citation on me (mobile) but there’s evidence that more “generic” mitochondrial DNA was integrated into the nuclear DNA, and that this is also the case for other endosymbionts.
If you tie rent increases to COL changes YoY then rent should stay relatively indexed to wages and other expenses, while preventing landlords from manipulating occupancy at the expense of renters.

I would have happily rented for forever if we had been able to get a great apartment that was rent stabilized and had good tenant protections. It was just the unpredictability of rentals in NYC that drove us to buy.
Probably that flatten has a near-universal meaning across many programming languages, and flat is so close to flatten as to have its meaning be almost implicitly clear, whereas smoosh has absolutely zero precedent and its behavior would be completely uninferrable without looking up documentation.
The healthiest long term approach is to let the economy grow organically without artificially low rates or high deficit spending, and not treat marginal declines in asset pricing as a crisis.

Yeah, it still sounds large. As I said, I wasn't really commenting on that. I was commenting on the fact that someone seemed to be deducing a number they can't deduce based on the article they said it was from.

I would add: can explain the level of complexity being introduced and how it will be managed.

More complexity raises the cost to support and develop new features in a non-linear way.

If you do features A, B, and then C; feature C might seem to be the most difficult. But if you do A, C, and then B; feature B might seem to be the most difficult. If you manage complexity poorly in features A, B, and C; then perhaps feature D is too expensive to ever accomplish -- not because it's inherently difficult, but because it's difficult given the complexity already present due to A, B, and C.

To me, this is the fundamental challenge of software engineering. Other kinds of engineers must deal with complexity as well, but it's somewhat more contained due to physical constraints. Software complexity is unrestrained.
Except for some reason once people become employees, that "broom-clean workspace" turns into "spotless deep house clean" expectation.

Hence why you get "quitely quitting" as just doing the job you were hired to do.
With all due respect, you’re a small indie developer, and the situation is different when you make a browser used by millions of people. Apple does do whatever it wants, but sometimes it (wisely) realizes that what it wants is people to not be upset that people’s favorite app is broken in the next release of macOS, so occasionally steps are taken to ensure that doesn’t happen. This ranges from committing to SPI for longer than it is necessary for Apple’s own use, to putting in bundle ID or linked-on-or-after checks, or in rare cases reaching out to developers directly.

The target for this comment is developers like you, but those who are less familiar with the platform than you are but of similar import. Those are the ones who will read this and say “wow Firefox says this is how to make my app fast so I should do it!!1!” and what is going to happen is either they’re going to use it wrong, because they aren’t really experts on how locking works, or they’ll copy the code of of Firefox and their app will break in a future OS release while Mozilla will update their code in July.
You are correct, but there are still places where synchronization is necessary.
I heard a podcast about this I forget which one but they said basically that corn was slowly developing and spreading north but it was not developed to support large civilizations like it did in the central and South America. Had Europeans not come for another 100-200 years I think it would have adapted to northern latitudes and the base for large populations and large cities would have been there. Yes the natives had corn in the north but it was a strain with very few kernels compared to what was being grown in central Mexico. I can’t recall the details but that’s the gist . I think they said only one million natives existed in the continental US when colonists first landed too
