I think the parent commenter is saying in (2) that sometimes readers want to follow a particular author, like some cartoonists prefer to read XKCD rather than Dilbert, even though they generally study all cartoons of their genre.

I’ve often seen celebrity authors write a “Letter to the Journal”, for those kind of readers, and I think that that might be the safer way for big names to be recognized.

It may give the author space to collaborate with interested parties without necessarily overwhelming the peer-reviewed content.

At the same time, some authors are truly just prolific.
I mean relative to the effort put into building this feature making the UI intuitive shouldn't be a huge task. Think when FF released "tabs" for the first, super intuitive and instant adoption. I wonder if FF is short on UI/UX contributors.
Literally none of what you are saying is true.

A COW write only needs to checksum the newly written bytes. A non-cow filesystem needs to checksum all data contained in the block (unchanged prior with now new values).

Additionally, a non-COW filesystem needs to update all metadata checksums/values for existing blocks. It's a much more pathological case (interrupted write wise) than a COW filesystem, because if it writes data, but hasn't written the checksum yet - the block is now corrupt. If it writes the checksum, but not the data, the block is now corrupt. And there is no way to know which one is correct post-facto, without storing the old data and the new data somewhere. Which has the exact same overhead or worse as COW. And the data in a FS block is usually many large multiples of the sector size, which makes writes pretty hard to do in any sort of atomic way. Journaling helps, but not with performance here! Since you'd need to store the prior values + the new values, or you're still guaranteed to lose data.

Compression wise, this isn't (as much) of an issue for COW filesystems, because it only needs to compress the newly written data, which can be allocated without concern to the previous allocation size, which is still there, allocated. It can mean less efficient compression if these are small, fragmented writes of course, which is why most of them have some sort of batching mechanism in place. Alternatively, it can copy a chunk of the block, though that can cause write amplification, and is usually minimized.

But you don't run across potential pathological fragmentation issues, like where you compress prior blocks which now take significantly less space, or new blocks take more space and require reshuffling everywhere.

A Bug and a Dilemma
I don't care. Stop this witch hunt.

Leave private companies out of politics. I hate that politics, brought on by mostly media propaganda, are causing businesses so much pain.

We're entering a dangerous phase of humanity where extremism and intolerance are promoted on both sides.

Just know that if you live in the US, UK, or one of the western countries, it doesn't mean that you and your government are the good guys. You're quite often the bad guys. Your media uses the same propaganda techniques that Putin uses on Russians.
>The company was not under US sanctions when Tesla began buying from it.

>Rusal was once sanctioned by the US Treasury, which cited Russia’s “malign activities” at the time, but those sanctions were lifted under former President Donald Trump in 2019. Tesla only began buying aluminum from the company in late 2020.

So a non story?

Also:

>Rusal, the second-largest aluminum supplier in the world...
No, you're just conflating things horribly.

What Clinton (and I would bet most other folks that you're alluding to from the years prior) had meant by "stolen" elections or "illegitimate" president was emphatically not the same as Trump's wild allegations. She was not claiming "people cast fraudulent ballots" or "the votes were counted incorrectly" or the like. She was not denying what actually happened. Rather, she was using "stolen" to refer to things like "you can get the most votes but still lose the electoral vote, and thus the presidency", or "they make it difficult for your supporters to vote", or things like that. It's unfortunate she used the word "stealing" to refer to that, given that that apparently gave some people a very convenient opportunity to paint a false equivalency between both sides, when in reality she was using that word to make a factual statement about how votes are cast and counted in the system, whereas her opponent was using that word to to hurl unsupported (and "unsupported" is incredibly generous here) allegations of fraud.

Imagine if you were about to get a heart transplant. Someone grabs the donated heart sitting in the operating room and runs. "She stole my heart!", you panic. "Oh don't worry honey, my wife stole my heart too. It's pretty common! It happens to all of us." Imagine the sheer exasperation when you're on life support and now have to spend the remainder of your energy replying to that as a serious comment.

A Barrier Is Overcome for Computer Speed (1988)
The EU is going to mandate interoperability soon, because it turned out that these companies cannot be trusted with allowing users to do what they want to do.
This happening in tech is actually benign. In a lot of countries there are mandated quotas for minorities and socially backward communities in fields such as medicine, civil engineering etc, where the cost of mistakes is much higher. I do feel all this would be temporary in nature and eventually as these sections of society get more prosperity due to these policies, they will end up increasing their competency levels overall (but may not be in the same generation).

This is super interesting! Sounds from the article like the main point is to remove CO2 from the air to improve air for humans. That's already really exciting. In essence it's a CO2 scrubber right? So how does this compare to devices built with the goal to remove CO2 with the goal to reduce climate change?

Edit: To answer my own question, this probably does little. They have a home use version that supposedly removes as much Co2 as twenty indoor plants. The paper linked below had three most efficient plant remove about 17% of Co2 in a cubic meter of air with optimal light conditions. So twenty of those wouldn't have much impact in a reasonably sized dwelling. That's assuming it's equivalent to the most efficient plant and great lighting. I cannot imagine the much larger installation at the airport making much of a difference either given the massive amount of air.

> 1) If a hole is made of space, it doesn't follow that space is a hole.

Yes, it absolutely does, so long as there is no category error, and there is none here. The Universe is just an inconceivably large, curved hole with a tiny little bit of stuff in it.

> 2) Space is not spacetime.

Einstein and I disagree with you. Prior to Einstein's work, space and time were independent dimensions. But over 100 years ago Einstein showed that relativity of motion mathematically combines space and time into one, spacetime. For all intents and purposes, anyone talking about space today under any circumstances is also talking about spacetime whether time is specifically mentioned or not it is always there along with space.
Playing devil's advocate here, since I'm generally of your opinion: there is nothing that prevents more code being written covering more unintended uses of the technology, including injuctions and reversals. If at all, there is a hubris that complex problems can be solved with clean, minimal code and simple concepts. After all, when rendering their decisions, human courts are also solely refering to rules written before the fact (in my home country at least).

>Seeing your website’s actual server is the virtual equiv of the Overview Effect and I want to have that feeling the whole time!

That's a perception shift I've never really had. Servers have always just been computers with dial up modems, then networks, then the internet, for me. I've always known that I can, if I want, have a node on the internet that I fully control. It's just not been a priority for me in decades now.

> Meanwhile unemployment is still at an all time low.

That is incredibly circular logic. So companies shouldn't be doing layoffs because unemployment is low?

Are you arguing that the macro environment isn't bad? A G7 country is in a mexican standoff with its bond market and pension funds to avoid a systemic collapse in the next 3 days. How much worse is the macro situation supposed to get before businesses should worry?

Valve is a close approximation of a worker's co-op, if it had 300 (?) members. There are many insights to be gleaned from this type of business, the difference being that Valve for sure has a boss (or many), because it's not a worker's co-op, no matter how much it pretends to be. However a leader is not a boss, and you can tell the difference when you've been a part of worker-owned startups.

That said, true co-ops of all sizes also struggle with compensation. Much like startups, you want to reward early risk acceptance and loyalty while preserving fairness based on skill and contribution (otherwise you won't be able to recruit new members). It's really, really hard.

(I know who you are but I figured it was worth commenting since others may not know as much on the subject).

>The economy is mostly imaginary...

Unfortunately this is also true about the "assets" that reflect retirement accounts, pension funds, bonds and savings of all kinds. These are basically promissory notes to be paid by the future productivity of the "economy". If the economy doesn't grow, or if contracts, these promissory notes cannot be repaid which either means defaulting or printing money (hyperinflation). Either way, all kinds of people with "savings" and paper assets (which many depend on to survive and/or hope to use to retire some day) will be wiped out.

>If we could somehow actually shift the focus to making sure basic needs are met first, like all basic needs, then I don't think the economy would be seen as something to discuss.

The above is why it isn't as simple as just figuring out what people need today and shifting production around to take care of basic needs, unless you plan on zeroing out all debts, savings and paper assets (which won't be popular with people who have savings and paper assets). If the system is teetering on the edge of total collapse, however, this might be unavoidable (some might even call it "the great reset").
"Those who don't understand UNIX^H^H^H^H banking are doomed to reinvent it, poorly."
I disagree, the style to write as a "neutral" observer (often writing in passive voice) is frowned upon nowadays for good reason.

Part of that is also that the information if the authors wrote a citation or not can be important to a reviewer. For example it is unfortunately quite common that authors publish results in a salami tactic to maximize the number of publications. There can be a significant difference in impact between a citation saying "this is important to work on" which is written by the authors and one which is written by someone else.

Generally we should not write to hide information, and that would include if the authors wrote other work that relates to the work being reviewed. We should not adjust our writing to doubleblind review (and I would argue the advice the author was given is wrong). Doubleblind review is imperfect anyway, I can often tell who the authors are just by topic and e.g. writing and figure styles, so if a reviewer really wants to know the authors they can. We should still do double blind though.
> When the set is of 12, that's 4 of 12, which is exactly one third, assuming independent participation (which obviously is what makes the number optimistic/ a ceiling).

I think this misunderstanding of statistics may be at the core of our disagreement.

Yes, 4 is one-third of 12.

No, you cannot expect overlapping, non-mutually-exclusive sub-populations of 9% and 18% to equal 27% of a total population.

If you're interested in learning why, read (1), but the TL;DR is: given three people, A: black female, B: white male, C: white male, if you sum sub-populations as you're trying to do, you'll get (1 black + 1 female = 2) from a population of 3, and you'll extrapolate (incorrectly) that 2/3rds of this population meets your criteria. I hope that helps explain why your expectation of the gender & racial diversity of CS graduates is inaccurate.

It's not just mobile web. You need good accessibility--especially for keyboard--for this to work. But a lot of developers don't make their sites work without a pointer device. This is a problem on the web at large though.

For instance, I needed to get a BIOS upgrade for my mouse issue on my Lenovo laptop, but their support site a) required JavaScript and b) wasn't using tabindex or keyboard accessible buttons/links to navigate it. Why this is required to get me a simple ISO or zip is pretty ridiculous. I should be able to use a TUI browser to get such downloads for my device and it doesn't require any interactivity.

Beyond this, PWAs aren't the most popular because of Apple if I'm speculating. The PWA experience on Apple's OSs are so handicapped that it's often seen as a waste of time to develop for as Android users are the only ones that might bother installing the app and desktop discoverability is horrible (Fx stopped support for SSB before it even went to stable). Also there isn't a FxOS or KaiOS system that is actually used in the anglosphere where most developers still come from so the need to support is overlooked.
Something I've observed is that this level of coaching is only available through particular, isolated channels.

Those channels are top accelerators like YC and top VCs. It's not worth their time to waste it on people they don't have a stake in, but it seriously changes the trajectory of founders who are exposed to it (and their employees - not going to doxx myself but it's not possible to understate what you get through osmosis at an early stage startup on the path to being a unicorn).

Basically you need to take that risk to be a founder of a killer idea that redefines or creates entire new markets (or has the potential to) and then exercise a network to get in with the "in" crowd of advisors who have a vested interest in your success.

At the end of the day, those who can't do teach. But there's only so much you can learn from those who haven't done anything.

This is complete a company issue. This VR tech is meant for actual meetings.

>Instead of having a screen (or multiple screens), force people in a shitty virtual reality where you have to walk around still,

You are completely misunderstanding the tech. You can literally have infinite amount of screens in a VR environment if you still want to cling to the notion of screens.

I mean where I worked this worked pretty well. Actual managment told you their rough goals (do more of X, make more like Y, don't forget Z) and "someone" who had a good idea and didn't like wasting time took the lead naturally. Small groups form, on some specific subproblem someone else takes the lead because they have a better idea how to tackle that specific beast etc.

Humans are good at organizing, if the goals are clear and everybody has the motivation.

And rhis is the actual problem. If I feel like the company is fucking me over in some way or viewing me as a cow they have to milk as much as possible, that motivation will be gone.
The secret sauce is creating contexts for relationships to form organically, in group settings. An app that emphasizes a safe, low-commitment environment that doesn't rely on first impressions, and mimics natural group settings instead of awkward 1 on 1s.
