Some potentially useful advice below. Remember to apply it to all the software you use, including operating systems on local machines, company infrastructure, things you deploy in the cloud etc.

Possibly your team has added workarounds and technical debt to your codebase for issues in your dependencies, that is probably a good place for them to start. It is also nice to give back to projects by working on "papercuts"; things that are easy to fix but annoy lots of people (Ubuntu did this for eg). Working on bigger stuff is good too, like fixing all crashes or adding important features from the roadmap etc.

Some companies have a "20% time (or X hours) on open source" policy, which is great for the sort of issues mentioned above.

Some open source projects have a list of ways companies can support them with resources (like sponsorship, download mirrors etc), for example here is the one for Debian:

https://www.debian.org/intro/help#organizations

It is a good idea to reword your employee contracts to mention the company policy on open source and give employees copyright over their contributions to open source projects. Some projects like Samba do not allow corporate copyright ownership. For other open source projects, having a diverse copyright holder base of individuals and a broad contributor community helps protect projects (at least those that are copyleft) from license and other changes brought on by company acquisitions, industry competition and other corporate influences.

https://sfconservancy.org/contractpatch/

If you want more separation between your company software and open source software, an Open Source Program Office or just an internal "open source team" is a good idea, although it is always a good idea for lots of folks to have open source experience, so rotating other employees through the team for periods/percentages of time might be good too.

https://blog.opensource.org/what-is-an-open-source-program-o...

When setting up an internal "open source team", the FOSSjobs website and the other job aggregators linked from the FOSSjobs resources wiki might help you hire new open source folks.

Specifically on cable attacks, it could be simply due to 5G hysteria though, especially that it already happened multiple times: https://www.wired.co.uk/article/france-paris-internet-cable-... (Apr. 2022), https://reporterre.net/Exclusif-la-carte-des-sabotages-des-a... (Dec. 2021, before the Russia-Ukraine war). I'm not clearing Russian agents or pro-Russian sympathies cutting off the cables (maybe the 5G hysteria is the cover), but this is a plausible explanation that makes sense.

Anything that supports the narrative is absolutely fine. Doesn't matter if the methodology is crap, the data is crap... none of it matters. Pointing any flaw out makes you a horrible person.

Now if you publish any kind of research that goes against the narrative suddenly every single flaw, no matter how irrelevant, comes into play. I don't think you can ever publish research that goes against the narrative and not have it somehow "discredited" by "experts".

I trust absolutely none of the research that has been conducted over the last 2.5 years. It's all garbage. Too much emotion and incentive is involved in making things follow the narrative.

And for people that downvote this... ever been on the other side? Ever been a critic of our covid policies? You get yelled at, called absolutely horrible things, and wished horrible death upon you. Your career can fall apart, relationships can dissolve, friends will stop talking to you. It's miserable. Yet, here we are... on the other side. It's not like we chose this... The science, data and morals just happen to be on our side (according to us (which history will almost certainly support)).
Flatpak is optional, it's just setup out of the box so if you want to flatpak install stuff it just works. Their app center also shows flatpaks but has a drop down where you can pick either the deb or flatpak version if both are available.

And the tiling extension is off by default. It's just a little toggle in the (very nice) settings dialog to turn it on or off. You can totally uninstall it too as it's just a regular gnome extension (and you can even install it right now on non-pop gnome 3 systems).

That's super informative, much better than any other video or article I found, thanks!
Don't worry, it's totally a bastion of morals and ethics. Nothing better than a subreddit full of people celebrating people dying. I mean, they died because they had different values than the poster! The horror!!
The Apple Music plugin appears to use the "iTunes Visual SDK", which from my web searches appears to be undocumented as still supported in Apple Music (although obviously is). Here's the code for the plugin:

I tried Pop!_OS a few years ago and I really like their marketing and how they push Pop!_OS as a big name in the distro game.

The only thing I dislike is their shell, the ugly pastel colors are really off putting along with some weird design choices and it wasn't very stable the last time I tried it a few years ago.

Makes me wonder why ZorinOS isn't as popular even though it has existed for twice as long. Maybe because of a lacking hardware company behind it? I think ZorinOS is a more consumer friendly distro than Pop!_OS (which I consider a nerd distro) and might have a better chance at being accepted as a mainstream distro than the others I've tried.
How has FreeBSD not picked up the "better" driver?
I'm throwing this out there:

Jack Dorsey left Twitter, and it's exploding.

He rebranded Square into Block, just in time for crypto-winter.

He might not be that great of a CEO.
That Scala is in their top 20 seems quite suspicious.

On the X-Y plot in the article, Rust's position at the far right is even more suspicious. (Are they counting all forks of the same repository as separate projects?) Swift appearing in the list north of Objective-C, likewise. Ruby is inexplicably high up -- above C?!? -- considering the absolute paucity of job listings for Ruby coders. And is there really anything at all coded in Powershell?

But at least it's not TIOBE, which would be to say entirely spurious, and insulting even to submit here.
You're correct that some cities existed in the Americas on par or larger than most European cities (ie Teotihuacan). I don't know why people don't just chalk it up to an accident of viral/biological disease evolution. You could imagine an alternate timeline where the native Americans had survived similarly horrific incidents as the Justinian and Black Plagues, as well as Smallpox, but then Colombian exchange brought back the diseases to Europe.

Maybe it was just an unfortunate coin flip of history.

Maybe the racial diversity in the Eurasian-African land mass contributed to the disease diversity and acuity?

Here's a link to Stuart Cheifet talking about how all copies of Computer Chronicles on YouTube are pirated: https://youtu.be/iIf6leAPaEM (fast forward to around 33:39)

Basically the Computer Chronicles account on YT has copied Cheifet's content, uploaded it and monetized it. Dude is banking coin by trading on Chiefet's name.

You can even tell it's a content heist cause the channel's "about" blurb says:

"NOTE: This channel is in no way affiliated with the official producers or rights holders to The Computer Chronicles. It exists merely to provide an easy platform on which to view many episodes of this great show."
Nope - they’re talking about turnover between current ‘have’s’ and ‘have nots’, allowing the have’s to move to an area that someone who is poorer cannot afford to live due to lack of jobs or the like.

There are more than enough actual houses in the US. We aren’t short on space. It’s location and current needs based on time in their life and available assets, etc.
Vice President right? Weird naming considering it makes it sound like there should be 1 and they are in position #2 of all people.
No.

But many, many web sites are in GitHub, and they have (mostly cribbed) CSS files in.
Selective pressure impacts genetics though, so doesn't it come full circle to the same argument?
And that is why banks (used to) require ample savings buffer, 20% down, etc.

A lot of what hobbyists might not realize at first is the fact that coral are colonies of many many tiny organisms each performing their role, like zooxanthellae. These structures are enabled by entire ecosystems of ancillary bacteria on adjacent rock and the water column that maintains the equilibrium. A lot of the acute die off we see is not just warming waters or pollutants harming the coral itself, but primarily the damage to the unseen symbiotes, food sources, and bacterial colonies that are part of the coral's life cycle.

With few exceptions if you have a piece of coral in your tank and it dies, it's your fault. They're immortal otherwise when left undisturbed. Some common pet store coral like pulsing xenia, green star polyps or zooanthids will grow in spite of the worst conditions to the point where they become invasive. All you need is a single polyp and most coral specimens we're familiar with will eventually grow and spread as far as the ecosystem will allow.

Deep deep layered sand beds, areas of stagnant water and high flow water, macroalgae, various gas exchange areas, copepods, amphipods, all of it is part of a holistic picture that is needed for these bacteria to be happy. This process can take years of what I call 'strategic neglect' by not messing with the deeper darker anoxic layers of sand and algae. If those bacteria are happy the coral has no choice but to thrive.

I hope this new effort to get the coral to spawn without subdivision succeeds so that future generations can see the same things we once saw, and the life it creates below.
> A blind person can't see a painting, therefore we shouldn't paint. A deaf person can't hear music, therefore we shouldn't make music.

That is a bit of a strawman argument though, is there anyone saying that? The actual situation is likely more like if a blind person can't see your painting you have to describe it to them. And I don't see how this is going to fit in with your original point on multi-billion dollar corporations.

If we want to keep to the idea of absurd outcomes, why is it so much more absurd that Mr Michael has to make accessible videos but world's best phone design company isn't considered competent to design a phone? These are both pretty absurd.
You also need to futz with apt repo priorities to force it to install the deb package instead of the snap installer -_-
So is this the use-case for going through the trouble of having a private Root CA that all your machines trust?
This is not true, I've played twice as the second player and won both. The seem to likes setting up 3 diagonal, during that you are free to setup your own lower trap with two intersecting diagonals. So far doing that always seems to win.
I can not think about anything else except war. I understand you are asking about kind of technical breakthroughs, rather popular then science, but as for me, bad times are happening rn. If thinking about something good in this situation, let my take will be in climate technologies kind of significantly reducing use of fossil fuels.
I was under the impression that fluoride as well as chlorine is added to reduce the risk of bacterial growth in the water supply as well?

We don’t add anything to the water in Denmark unless an added risk of contamination is detected. All toothpaste is fluoridated though.

'Survival of the Sickest' by Sharon Moalem covers this and several other diseases that are related to survival at a cost as well. Fun read for the interested!

I wouldn't call it massively underestimate -- if I recall the research of Meehl et al correctly, clinicians, on most types of cases considered independently, underperform simple arithmetical models of 2--5 variables by something on the order of 10 %. So not a huge effect, but also humans aren't as good as they think. (They do get lucky though! Sometimes some people get very lucky and accidentally get a long string of cases right.)
We use ML for the AIs in our digital boardgame adaptations on Steam and phones. Our Race for the Galaxy AI is better than 97% of our players and our Dominion AI (still in beta) is at about the 75th percentile. Not only is it good at the games, it's super adaptable when a new expansion comes out or the designer adds errata for cards. Finally, it's been helpful with the design of new cards. A quick training session and we can put the cards in front of the designer and they can supplement their play testing. The AI has even found some 'exploits' that new card combos create that we can address before release.
If people have to enter time spent into any system then thats an no from me.

Exactly - what does it mean?

You work on stimulating things and get paid what you accept.

You’ll have a yearly review where you have your say, and pay can be increased if employer think it’s worth it.

Titles are problematic in teams working to produce good stuff!

We should compare ourselves to athletes more than the MBA powerpoint version of a company.

I hear Tom Brady is a legend - is he an S10 quarterback? Senior quarterback? Or just a quarterback with high a salary based on performance?

I believe levels are instruments for managers not employees.
We won't need exotic options. The paper that Noah's piece is based on focuses on technologies with a long track record, except for electrolyzers.

But the unknowns with electrolyzers merely mean the possible outcomes from using them range from "save trillions" (worst case, using century-old alkaline electrolysis), to "save trillions and trillions" (with likely-cheaper-after-more-engineering polymer-electrolyte membrane electrolyzers).

The paper rigorously chooses conservative costs (i.e, costs that favor fossil fuels and nuclear over renewables) in every case, so its predictions are worst-case.

And all the numbers in the paper are "cost of energy" only. It ignores side benefits like better health and reduced climate change damage.
I think AI will be the bitcoin of 2010. Many people will say that our lives will change forever. Big new technology companies will be built on this idea.
I think the next big thing will be to create entire open worlds created in AI to explore with the use of VR lenses.

Are we sure that no mutations exist from the Justinian? How genetically similar were the bacteria that caused the two plagues?

One theory off the top of my head, maybe Justinian affected elderly but not the young as much? If true, there would be little selective pressure applied.
Also many shallow water coral actually get their color from photosynthesizing single-celled organisms they live in symbiosis with. Coral bleaching happens when the animal kicks out this cell, the animal isn't necessarily dead.
You show your driver's license or state issued ID, and your ticket is tied to that.

I've done that before. It was a bit more inconvenient, honestly, but it got me tickets to something I was happy to see, and it cut out scalpers.

I could also sell my tickets back to the venue, if I needed to cancel.
Not a scheme but an alleviation of existing debt by government.

$ must come from somewhere. I’m not against it, just jealous considering how I scratched my way out of debt when I came out of college.
You literally admitted it, landlords provide nothing, all they do is finance private spending. Once the property is paid for the landlord gets to keep an appreciating asset and generate cash flow from it by stealing from the tenant's paycheck. Literally leeches on society.
Hah, I ran into that same upgrade breakage a few weeks ago too! I'm still cleaning up some of the mess but was mostly back within half a day.
If I came up alongside them without looking at them they would not snap their head to look at me. Most of the time drivers do not look at the driver in the car next to them. However, if I came up alongside them while looking at them, most of the time they seemed to be able to sense they were being looked at and turn to look at me.

This article describes one situation of sensing when someone stares at you:

https://bigthink.com/surprising-science/why-is-it-you-can-se...

However, in the situation I describe, they are looking at the road ahead and not noticing me or where I might be looking. They seemed to be able to sense that I was looking at them before they even noticed that I was there.
I learnt to use the roller ball on an older version. Since then just roller ball. Sadly they switch to pad later.
Impact? Someone could be an amazing mentor and mediocre at actual output, but their impact could lead to a bunch of people being able to stay leveled up and think more efficiently that lets the team ship more with less bugs. Maybe there’s a senior engineer who can consistently crank out high quality code and identify optimizations that save money.

Some sort of holistic 360 reviews by peers where others can vouch for you could work. What’s the big deal with having one senior paid 180k and another 350k if their impacts are considerably different? I have personally dealt with BS like “we can’t promote you rn but also can’t give you a raise because you’re at the upper limit of your salary band”. That’s not fair, imo.
I get the impression you are new on this team. Is that correct?

Sonewhat assuming so, I think when a team does not trust a person to get a lot done, they give them less. I think this can also snowball, lack of direction leads to churn and lots of lag time to get answers to hit task completion, which leads to slower task completion and more team apathy/disengage.

IMO, just focus on the tasks given to you. Get them done to a T, nothing extra, and be somewhat public about noting a recent task done.

I think this is something of a personal branding/perception problem. After some time of knocking things out of the park, there will be evidence for why the team should engage you.

I don't think this a healthy team dynamic, trust I think should be the default until otherwise rather than an earned thing. (If a manager requires a new hire to prove their trustworthiness, it can put a person in a catch-22 where the they can't prove their trustworthiness until they are trusted)
Can someone explain the virtual thing?

Who's running this operation.
The problem is how to reliably installed. Only install it once.

But wilder issue is can it run on notebook (I can do lisp after some struggle but not sure about this) for ease of sharing of idea.

The iPad version used a bit but not sure about too many things and I switch back to common lisp.
Thank you for this excellent explanation.
Just click on the link, OP isn't being honest. He has a services tab, in which he sells his services via the site that his videos are on and the entire right side of the site is ads!

His about section:
My name is Haim Michael, I am an eternal student and a lecturer. I chose to start running this web site to serve as my professional personal blog. Through this blog, I plan to provide more information about the services my company provides, publish my professional articles over the web and maintain my professional relationships both with my students and clients.

As per the regulations:

"Here are a few important points regarding IS 5568 compliance:

The law applies to public entities and every private organization that offers services to the general public.
Private contractors with an average revenue of 100,000 New Shekels (NS) (Approximately $30,000 USD) or less are exempt from IS 5568.
IS 5568 immediately applied to medium and large businesses with an average annual revenue of 300,000 NS or more.
Small businesses must also comply with the law as of October 2020."
On the topic of Linux:

To properly install Arch Linux (The way I want it setup) on my machine without any hitches, I need to use like.. 7 different videos, because they each leave something out that the other included.

Yes, yes, I know I should/could just use the Arch wiki. I really should just go do a deep dive into it someday. But my method works, so why fix it?
Everyone who cares about Brady is watching him and knows how he is performing. This is not true of engineers.
