>> Trolling means saying something you don't believe in to start a ruckus/annoy people/make a flame war.
> No it doesn't; please don't make up word semantics to try to make people look wrong. It's childish and pointless.

OK, this conversation doesn't have a point anymore. I make up "word semantics"? What I described is the canonical definition of trolling. Don't believe me? Here are some third party one's:

Cambridge dictionary: the act of leaving an insulting message on the internet in order to annoy someone

Urban dictionary: Trolling – (verb), as it relates to internet, is the deliberate act, (by a Troll – noun or adjective), of making random unsolicited and/or controversial comments on various internet forums with the intent to provoke an emotional knee jerk reaction from unsuspecting readers to engage in a fight or argument

Merriam-Webster: to antagonize (others) online by deliberately posting inflammatory, irrelevant, or offensive comments or other disruptive content

In any case, nobody knowing what a troll is and hiw it's used would consider people saying "this editor as is, and with the aid of LSP/tree-sitter support it has, will gain adoption" fits any definition of a troll.

That's even if we consider people posting stuff they sincerely believe as "trolling". If the intention is not to mock/insult and get a reaction out of those reading the message, it's not trolling.

Those people are just optimistic for some new tech. That's a dime a dozen in HN and tech forums or blogs. At worse they're hyping it (like the Nth "X in Rust"). All of this has nothing to do with trolling

So, I don't know what bizarro definition you have. If you do have one, do share it.

There's a business model where a company makes generic products, like coffee or water bottles, and then puts your brand on it for a small fee. They also handle storing and shipping the inventory. So a business or "entrepreneur" can sell what looks like an original product with little investment. They just need a good website and an audience in order to exploit the cheap labor of workers living in poor countries.

Does it make the world any better? Absolutely not. But it's a way to make a buck.

Why is this “impressive”. Microsoft made money by selling Windows. If Windows got the reputation for being incompatible with popular software, people wouldn’t have bought Windows
Making sure the newest OS allowed people to run their old programs was a huge win for Microsoft because it meant that people were more willing to pay for the upgrade. As Microsoft moves to forcing upgrades onto users I wonder how long they'll worry about maintaining compatibility. The last version of Windows I installed was Windows 7 Professional and it included a means for my old 32bit apps to work, but for your typical windows 10 users the OS already doesn't give them an option.
You can actually vinify red grapes into white wine by separating the pomace from the must early enough after pressing the grapes. The red pigments are located in the skins of the grapes, so if you do this early, they won’t tranfer into the juice. A white wine made in this fashion is called blanc de noirs („white from blacks“).

If you let must macerate without removing the pomace the red color and a lot of tannins will transfer over and you get red wine.

As you usually don’t want a lot of tannins in white wine you separate the pomace from the must as well, even if you use white grapes (but of course you could let it macerate on the skins, but then you end up with orange wine).

White wine made from white grapes without maceration on the skins is called blanc de blancs.

That case probably (it's been a while since I checked) still shows up in most business law casebooks, but it doesn't really help much in understanding modern judicial thinking about the role of "profit motivation" in corporate decision-making.

Here's the abstract from a fairly recent paper in the principal journal of the ABA's Business Law Section in which the case and its relevance today was discussed in detail:

This article examines Dodge v. Ford on its 100th anniversary. In Dodge v. Ford,
the Michigan Supreme Court held that a business corporation is organized for
the profit of its shareholders, and the directors must operate it in service to
that end. Despite the fact that Dodge v. Ford is rarely cited in judicial
opinions, the case continues to spark controversy in legal scholarship. There
is little justification for this scholarly attention because the factual basis
is little more than a caricature of Henry Ford, and subsequent developments in
corporate law have all but eviscerated the precedential value of the case.
Rather, the legacy of Dodge v. Ford may simply be that it serves as a
convenient talisman, standing for the one sentence anyone actually cares about
and rolled out with each new battle in the war between shareholder profit
maximization and corporate social responsibility.

China breached Google a while back. The NSA also hacked google wide open by decrypting/man in the middle SSL/TLS. I remember when that was disclosed Google went on a rampage implementing site-to-site/machine-to-machine SSL so that it's not relying on single point of failure SSL/TLS termination.

A lot of people have selective memory when it comes to security issues.

And those breaches are multimillion record breaches.

The China one was bad enough for google to terminate the entire link to china and pull out entirely.

Exactly. The features OP described are IDE like features that many vim users like myself don't want in my basic text editor. Adding extra features via plugins is not an afterthought but design. He clearly doesn't understand the vim/neovim crowd and the design philosophy.

Small correction though, vi is available on every machine, not vim. But indeed this is big reason why I use vim for my own stuff.

You can sideload UTM and run Linux today.

Sideloading involves having a developer account, either free or paid.

>Sideloading allows you to load unofficial apps on your iOS device. If you have a free Apple account, you must re-sign the app every 7 days. If you have a paid ($99/year) Apple developer account, you must re-sign the app every year.

If you go with using a free developer account, you can use software called AltStore to automate the process of renewing the software every week.

Using AltStore to keep gaming emulator apps signed is mentioned in the video, but if you go with a free developer account you are limited to three sideloaded apps being active on the device at a time, and AltStore would count as one them.
I had an issue thinking UI was slow, but it turned up that mouse pointer integration issue - simple check: get a USB mouse and inject that USB device into VM.

Still not as good (as I remember VMware would provide), but better!

BTW, tested 7.0 just now -- anecdotally Ubuntu's UI does not feel any faster and somehow still depends on the resolution not the size of the window being moved

Yeah, no thanks.

I work in a company that has forced Workspaces upon us and it randomly is a nightmare. Tons of functionality you get in Excel is not there. It is a complete nightmare adjusting access to random files. You often end up with files and folders "owned" by a user who no longer exists and then we have to get the central IT to go fix it.

Ugh. Everything being browser based with crap desktop clients is the worst. They also want to constantly share crap via Google Drive and, unless I have missed something major, you can't run Google Drive, in Windows at least, under multiple signed in users with the same drive letter. You'll just get access denied errors. THAT makes shortcuts and all a complete fucking nightmare.

I have to often shrug when my users have issues and send in a report to the Japanese head office and hope they respond timely. I know /that/ isn't a workspaces fault, but it just compounds things.

Fascinating read, but I don't appreciate the clickbait title. Why not use the actual title, which is a much better description? "Memories of the End of the Last Ice Age, from Those Who Were There."

>and if you say, "Then don't use macOS", note that's a very anti-consumer view

Not much more "anti-consumer" than "if you prefer formal attire, then just don't buy Levi's - as opposed to insist the make black suits and bow ties".

Though I understand the convenience - I'd like to have the option myself in some cases.

What I dont like is third party companies forcing you to install a kext if you want to use their product, for non essential reasons (that could be handled in userland). At least this forces them to work with userland APIs (looking at the "haxie" peddlers out there).
To be clear, my implementation is build-time only but could easily be adapted to be dynamically server rendered, and probably could be adapted to the browser if the underlying graphics library (Sharp) has WASM support. It does need some awareness of how to get styles which can be made pluggable, but works well with my heavily customized atomic CSS setup generating styles and classes with Fela.

My use cases are all very unusual, but they’d probably make portability a much simpler task because I hobbled together such a weird set of technologies.

If you are building crud please don't get out the profiler unless you have a performance problem. Even then, if it's crud you're probably not going to look at memory usage first.
I had a different read on that but I am familiar with the link to Haskell zippers. People seem to assume if someone wrote something about Haskell they must be smart.

I’m European and I fully understand that our free health care and giant social programs (on many countries) are paid for by our minuscule military spending - which turned out to be a terrible idea considering actually we live next to a revisionist and expansionist power.

But Europeans liked to believe that WW2 had somehow “shown the world” that wars were unwinnable bla bla bla while really the US just installed a giant protectorate system on Europe and kept it under their nuclear umbrella (one which the continent largely decided to maintain after 1991).

So yes, there are Europeans who understand (and should) that European prosperity was bought with an American military umbrella, one which we don’t pay for.

But - the Trumpian argument that this architecture is “useless” is also wrong in my view. The system was constructed to benefit the US, and so it did. The problem is that after 1991 everyone got sloppy, and capital took enormous control over politics of the US and the West in general (since there were no enemies but only “opportunities for investment”) and this led to a series of poorly thought out disasters - including China in GATT/WTO hoping it would democratize, etc.
Right?

I mean, like I said, a lot of the complaints I have aren't really the fault of Workspaces.

We actually use the multiuser functionality of Sheets a lot but I still run into constant issues. And the fact a huge chunk of this crap does /not/ play nice with /multi-user local workstations/, in 2022, drives me bonkers.

I think this is a miscommunication. Acting your wage would be doing your job as you should be fairly expected to do it. The culture of overwork and hustle is what people are opting out of, but by calling it quiet quitting they are making it sound like people are doing the bare minimum to not get fired.
I have no direct info, but they've updated their outage maps to at least show the issue, and I've heard from numerous sources that they're actually working on something, so that's a plus.

You can't pre-solve problems you are unaware of but in most software engineering two problems are very predictable:

1. The system will have to handle more load in the future.
2. Someone will eventually want to change the business logic.

It is wise to write software in a way that you are well positioned to resolve those problems as they arise. When I use the word future-proofing in my day to day work, this is what I am referring to.

> Landlords increase the rent to the maximum that people are willing to pay.

Yes, and?

And, if you institute a UBI of $1000/month, the maximum that people are willing (and able) to pay suddenly increases by around $1000/month. And since landlords are mostly not complete idiots, they will recognize this and increase rents by approximately $1000/month.

Which was the point of the poster you originally replied to.

The only way that won't happen is if another, cheaper, alternative exists (like buying a place to live instead of renting). Except that, wouldn't you know it, people selling houses have also realized that they can raise prices by the amount equivalent to a $1000/month increase in mortgage payments.
Is this part of the tck or jvm spec? I’m surprised such an implementation detail isn’t left up the vendors if so.

you don't use Facebook but that doesn't mean you don't have an account there and that they aren't using it to track every mention of you by anyone you know who also has an account. They're also buying data about you from data brokers and using that to fill your dossier and tracking your browsing/app usage history through facebook buttons and "sign in with facebook" features.

That's the problem with inescapable companies like facebook, Microsoft, and Google. You don't have to like them, you don't even have use them, but they'll still be collecting your data and making money at your expense. You aren't allowed to opt out.

I’ve been a consistent squeaky wheel so Sonic has gotten AT&T to dispatch a repair technician tomorrow morning.
