OK that's both wrong (FIFA isn’t involved in regulating the confederations or the members or the clubs) and not what you originally said. I think you just made a mistake in understanding what FIFA does. Same with this:

> Do all the manufacturers of sports clothing, shoes, balls, goal posts, etc. have deals with FIFA? Yes

FIFA will have a relationship with sponsors of FIFA events (the dozens of brands you see during the World Cup or the Club World Cup) and will select who provides the official ball during these events (usually Adidas) or who makes FIFA-branded merch (lame stuff, relatively small market). But each individual player chooses their own boots + equipment, each national team or club negotiates their own sponsors and kit providers. At Qatar you'll see a wide variety of them - Nike, Adidas, Puma, Hummel, Marathon, Majid, Le Coq Sportif, Kappa, New Balance - FIFA weren't involved in the selection of any of them. And I'm not sure what to say about the goal posts - they'll just be whatever is already in the stadiums in use at any given World Cup.

FIFA is a corrupt enough organization, we don't need to pretend they're also some sinister dictator controlling every level of the global game. Not least because it lets the different confederations and national football associations off the hook for their own mixtures of incompetence and corruption.
The missing piece here is that the referendum was designed by people who wanted and expected remain to win. David Cameron, the PM at the time, was facing a minor rebellion within his own party from a faction of MPs that were anti-EU. They weren't a majority of the party, but they were large enough to cause trouble.

A couple years prior, he had faced a similar problem from Scottish nationalists, so he approved a referendum on Scottish independence. He was against independence, but when Scotland voted to remain a part of the UK, it weakened the arguments of the Scottish nationalists, making his job easier. He figured he could do the same with Brexit. Nobody seriously expected leave to win.

Problem was, it turned out there was a lot of money in leaving the EU. It would make tax dodges easier for the ultra-rich, and it would allow disaster capitalists to make a killing by shorting the market. So money flowed into the leave campaign from wealthy donors hoping to make a killing. As a result, leave ran a much slicker campaign.

All this might not have been enough for leave to win, but people were also pissed off at the government for years of austerity policies and a flagging economy since the 2008 crash. Lots of people, saw the vote as a way to express their displeasure in the government. Some of those who voted leave never expected it to win.

SO yes, you're right. The referendum was poorly worded and poorly planned. This was evident in the immediate aftermath. The House of Commons could not agree at all on what to do. A large chunk still backed remaining, but not a majority. Lots of MPs decided that, even though they knew Brexit was a bad idea, their constituents had voted for it, so they needed to switch sides. They didn't all switch to the same side though. Some wanted a no-deal Brexit. Some wanted to remain in the customs union and single market. Others wanted different arrangements. There was no majority for any course of action, because the referendum didn't describe a course of action, and it paralyzed UK politics for years.

> Feels a lot like a framework to me, albeit it more by convention and enforced by linters instead of skeletal code

100% Yes, and the linters are just an experiment I had to see what was possible in terms of "packaging a no-framework framework for distribution".

> And a fairly rigid one at that.

The same problem exists when using a framework. You use the framework's rigid rules and tools or you don't.

> Has this been tested against a more traditional architecture to solve a similar business problem? And if so what were its cons?

I don't know what you consider to be "this" because there's multiple concepts at play in my previous post: (i) "no framework", (ii) the specific "Modular Provider Architecture" ruleset, and (iii) python architecture linter.

The return is that you hopefully stop or punish the transgressions that caused you to send the abuse report.

But on second thought I must agree that it's probably the other way around, that people listening to abuse reports are the exception rather than the norm. I might have had some good experiences because I dealt with major ISPs in northern europe who are sticklers for the rules and processes.
Swap on zram seems very interesting. My current home computer is a NUC with 16GiB, but I sometimes build from source and a tmpfs drive is helpful for that so I’m a little concerned I might not have quite enough RAM. Thoughts?

I’ll definitely double my RAM for my next system (in a year or two) and will definitely have to consider swap on zram then.

Just to agree with the OP, I've just gone through a government tender process to buy a piece of software for my organisation. The number of people who could bid on the tender was incredibly limited. We've ended up with a 'solution' where the best and cheapest company was excluded from bidding. Mainly cause they struggled with our byzantine tendering process, that gives us 'best value' according to our procurement team. It's not the only broadly failed IT system that we have which has gone through these processes, so it's not a one off either.

We're currently busy throwing away solid pieces of open source software that have worked well for years in favour of enterprise garbage.

Yeah, average gamer by definition doesn't by the most expensive hardware configuration available on the market. Just like how the average javascripter doesn't buy the 8000$ Mac Studio configuration.

But, by definition, those cards aren't meant for average gamers, but those that do play at 4K@120Hz and at which they're hugely and massively useful.

I can't quite fathom the baseline misunderstanding of the market here - isn't it obvious that the most expensive piece of hardware isn't meant for average customer?
I would love to use the app for future projects but I can't because the advertised "offline mode" is not what I would expect it to be. If I open the Mac app when I'm offline I just get a blank window and have no access to any of my data. I assume this is because of a login failure and non of the data is accessible on device. So I have to login once and keep the app open before I go offline. If I close the app while being offline and reopen it without internet connection I won't have access to any of my data. This is sadly killing the app for me. Are there any plans to implement a real offline mode? Just a "read only" mode of the last state I had when last logged in would be enough for me.

I've worked with the major consulting firms, including McKinsey and their "usefulness" really depends on what you're asking them to do.

My general rule is if you ask them to work on something external - say, a summary of a market you're looking to enter, they can be quite useful. You're basically hiring a team to work pretty much full time on a specific topic. They usually have a good network of experts to tap and can do the grunt work of talking to a wide range of people, access major data sources, and approach the analysis methodically. That can be sometimes tough to do internally if you have limited time, internal expertise and limited accesses to sources of info. Plus you can avoid internal bias in the analysis.

If they are working on something internal to your company? Say org structure, new processes or policies? You may be disappointed. You as the internal person will know way more then they'll ever know and despite internal interviews and data collection, they'll have such limited visibility they'll likely give you some cookie-cutter answer. But if that's the cookie cutter answer you want to sell internally, have an outside, independent perspective is maybe exactly what you want.
Legal fact doesn't matter one bit AT ALL to knee jerk reactions in the market. Obviously the people were trying to find out which company presumably caused the fire so they could short their stock. They might only short it for minutes or hours but getting in to that trade early is critical.
How could there possibly be assurance of that? People who get coerced and turned into being informants don't go around advertising it to everybody else.

Absolutely not, no assurance whatsoever.

One point in the video talks about that this is novel/interesting because it can handle much higher heat then other thermal storage systems. But at the end of the video it talks about the output being only a bit above 150 degrees. Isn't that completely contradictory? If I want to use this in a steel forge this isn't even remotely close enough.
I don't understand what you are saying. An overflow in an intermediate result should signal an overflow unless you're relying on some special property of 2's complement arithmetic in which case you should be using specific datatypes to suppress the check. All I'm saying about floating point is that the presence of overflow checking in high performance FPU's falsifies (afaict) the claim that it's unfeasible to do the same thing for integers.

Overprovisioning doesn't help unless you distribute it wide enough that they don't all have the same points of inactivity. Even then wide regional issues can still give temporally correlated downtime, eg. Texas's wind turbines all not working at the same time due to low temperatures and icing. It doesn't matter how much you overprovision, 10 x 0 = 0.

Overprovisioning plus a wide regional distribution could work, but then you need lots of extra power transmission capacity, which is also expensive, and will be 80% idle 99% of the time.

Remember, we're engineering for the worst case scenario where we still need to provide power here. If we can think of it, it will happen sooner or later. Nuclear power plants are designed to be safe even if an airplane is flown into them, it's not good enough for renewables to then turn around and say "you need to redesign your entire society around our power being intermittent".

I'm hugely pro-renewables, but only for remote areas. For cities, wind/solar don't make sense due to reliability and energy density.
> “Moreover, the patient is left-handed. This makes things more complicated […]

There’s something bizarrely amusing about this. I’m now picturing a surgeon saying, “I’m sorry, I can’t operate on you because you’re left-handed.”

I wonder if discrimination based on handedness is unlawful anywhere. Under Australia’s Fair Work Act (for employment) and Equal Opportunity Act (for public life), you’d have to classify it in as a disability to get it covered, and I don’t know whether that’d be allowed by a judge or jury or whatever (to say nothing of sinister persons refusing to consider it a disability).
Yeah more of a OSS network traffic inspector for security monitoring.

I think it ships with IDS rules nowadays, but we see it generally more for manual impl. We see often fed into Splunk or ELK to feed custom detections, and especially enriching context to simplify investigating alerts by detection tools. Its investment into cross-record correlation IDs make graph-based investigations super effective: you can grab all sessions at an impact period and see them fan out across entities, resources, time, etc!

We mostly see it in sec teams in gov + DIY/code-heavy enterprise. Super popular bc those teams have more time to figure out tuned use of the rich low-level data, maybe budget to store it, and OSS means they can avoid the vendor dance.

CoreLight, who we did a popular webinar with awhile back showing how to enable rich visual hunting & investigation for the data by combining with Graphistry, is the biggest dedicated vendor building hw/sw to make it all more manageable at scale. So seeing in Windows is probably big news for their community..

You're forced to follow all the other many, many, many rules in Britain.
Yet you think you're being denied a freedom by the possibility of being required to participate in a process that results in changes to the laws that you obey. Making a choice between two bad options is pretty much the whole of life.

You have been tricked into thinking that abstaining is a choice your making, and not an outcom that you've been led into by a society that's letting you down and exploiting your grievances.

When everyone votes, the candidates have to generally be more competitive. More balanced and less extreme.

Anyway, good luck with Brexit and the journey to the center of last century.
Of course I never remember that a how much a pound is.

No this is really how stupidly it works.
Government software consulting is insane.

The licensing/certification stuff basically creates monopolies.

My spouse worked at a digital agency a decade ago, that it turned out was basically a near-monopoly provider of certain types of software for the local government.

The thing was, none of the work was actually done by them.
It was all subbed out to 3rd party dev shops who couldn't qualify themselves for the required licensing.
Further, they subbed out all the dev offshore.

So the government was both overpaying for offshore devs, and thinking they were spending money locally because the intermediary happened to be local.

They could have gotten the same work for 40-50% cheaper just skipping the front company, or spent the same and hired actual local devs they thought they were.
Their livelihoods are predicated as being part of a complex economic web and having good geopolitical conditions. Norway used to be one of the poorest European countries, now it is one of the wealthiest thanks to large oil reserves.

> What an odd way of phrasing it. It should be, "The next major version of HTTP, HTTP/3, will be QUIC”

No?

Http/3 is one application of quic, but sits on top of it.

That’s why it has a separate RFC, which explains that:

> While delegating stream lifetime and flow-control issues to QUIC, a binary framing similar to the HTTP/2 framing is used on each stream. Some HTTP/2 features are subsumed by QUIC, while other features are implemented atop QUIC.

While google did design QUIC with HTTP in mind, you can use QUIC for other protocols e.g. Microsoft has shipped SMB on QUIC in Windows Server 2022. MS also supports direct QUIC uses on Xbox Series consoles and has a guide to use MsQuic with the GDK.
I feel like this would go hand-in-hand with graph theory, as many problems are something like a graph with a queue at each node, with the goal being to manage traffic through the graph so that each queue is kept as short as possible.
The ratio of installed capacity and actual output is called load factor.

It’s typically 30% for wind power. That’s still 12GW.

40 billion should be enough for one Hinkley point C type reactor, having 3 GW capacity. Mind you that especially one nuclear reactor is not reliable either having to shut down for maintenance. France for example only gets a load factor of 77% out of their nuclear reactors.

I wonder if any of those permissions could be used to give the app access to raw touch screen data. In theory only system drivers should be able to.
If possible, it would pose a huge security risk: raw touch screen data reveal where the user taps before the data is sent to any security layer, so that by simply matching the coordinates to the known shape of the virtual keyboard, a malicious app would easily find text, including all passwords.

> Being socially outcast is terrible for your mental and physical health.

Yes, but Robbie Coltrane wasn't socially outcast.

Replaced "bullied" with "criticized".

The President of the United States is routinely and vehemently criticized. Hated by millions of people. And yet, he is not socially outcast. Nor is he bullied. And his mental and physical health seem ok for someone his age, or in any event, he doesn't appear to be suffering from feeling socially outcast.

Being criticized is not the same thing as being canceled. It's not even close.
