who says you only have one or no other backup?

anyway I wouldn't but s Yubikey for TOTP. OTP sucks. Sure it's better than no 2FA and TOTP is better than SMS OTP still it's not grate.

WebAuthn-like auth can provide all the benefits of TOTP while being way more secure and in some cases even not convenient.

The main drawback is how to backup your 2FA which makes it less of a choice for a "casual" user.
I suppose he could barter for it.

If person A holds on to the borrowed cash and doesn't spend it, that money doesn't circulate (the velocity of money decreases).

If person A doesn't take the loan, there is less money in the system (money supply is reduced).

If there's less money circulating, people won't "bid-up" the prices of food and gas as much, reducing their price (assuming constant supply of food and gas).
I suppose you could, but have you seen how popular new opensource projets being run these days? Young devs really loves discord to the point of hosting documentations there. I imagine young malware authors are no different.
Less concerning, though corporations are by nature usually self-interested and motivated solely by profit.

> but the reality is that Twitter was, by far, the most successful platform at taking a “we support free speech” stance for content

As someone who doesn't like Twitter or Elon Musk, I have to vehimently disagree. Twitter completely failed at establishing an enforceable basis for moderation, which led to vague rulings and unhappy users who felt like they were being silenced. That's entirely Twitter's right as a company, mind you. But it's also a terrible track record for consistent enforcement of their TOS.

What Elon seems to be advocating for is "free speech" adhering closer to the precident set by US law. That comes with it's own set of consequences, but it's also a much better defined concept than Twitter's TOS violations. Since TechDirt doesn't give us an example of their definition of free speech, this whole article just reads like a nasal commendation of how shitty the internet is. Thanks TechDirt, you really cracked the case on this one.
The FAQ mentions that you're taken to a random point in the pre generated conversation every time you load the site, and a new segment of the conversation is generated every day.

I believe game developers aren’t against functional programming (John Carmack has great things to say about Haskell for example).

Pure functions excel at state management and reducing bugs. If there were a reason to make games with a functional language, this is the reason.

The big issues seem to be deterministic performance and resource usage. Garbage collection, lazy evaluation, etc all result in bubbles of weird performance. That doesn’t matter for the overwhelming majority of programs where the human limits in responsiveness is hundreds of milliseconds, but does matter it must scale into single digit milliseconds.

There are functional languages that have this capability, but outside of the partially functional Rust, they are basically unknown.
TLDR "Programmers who use spaces are more likely to respond to StackOverflow surveys soliciting information about their income."
You mean renaming exceptions to panics? Or reinventing them through wrapping? (which, admittedly, does have a benefit of possibly clearer stack trace)

Go didn't get rid of exceptions, it just made them more awkward.
Where does it go in the ratio of cars delivered per employee, which is the number under discussion?
Template metaprogramming is hardly ever needed anymore. C++20 has better built-in features that for most of what was done with it, that compile much faster.

Almost all C++ programmers completely ignore it. You can too.

Currently Phlare supports pprof which exposes profiling data on a http endpoint.

We need to pull these profiles in at a regular interval by hitting the HTTP endpoint and we call this “scraping profiles”.

This is very similar to how Prometheus.io works.
In 1970, 11% of American adults held a Bachelor's degree or higher. That figure proceeded as follows:

1970: 11.0%
1975: 13.9%
1980: 17.0%
1985: 19.4%
1990: 21.3%
1995: 23.0%
2000: 25.6%
2005: 27.7%
2010: 29.9%
2015: 32.5%
2021: 37.9%

It's not at all surprising that being in the 83rd percentile of most educated in 1980 gave a better life outcome than having the same absolute level of education but relatively then being in the 62nd percentile in 2021.

Roughly speaking, your parents' degrees are about twice as uncommon in 1993 (~midpoint of Gen X undergrad graduation) as they would be today.

> You can care less about your colors, but for some categories of graphic designers, that's not an option.

For many more, it IS an option. If it's trivial for them to select pantone colors for their designs, they probably will use them. If they don't have easy access to pantone colors, they'll just select an approximate shade they like.

In the former (frictionless) case, more pantone dyes may get used. In the later (current reality) case, they certainly will not. It's not a stretch to think that pantone may be cutting themselves off from a potential growth market, in exchange for a rather small amount of cash up-front.
Games are the most reliable category of software, the one WINE targets the hardest. Almost every software I try that isn't a game, fails to work in some way.

The worst offenders are "industry standard" software. 3ds Max. Ableton. Photoshop. Altium. MS Office. Visual Studio. Go check WineDB and see how many versions of these are rated "Garbage".

I say again - if you attempt to rely on WINE to do real industrial work on Linux using Windows tools, you are virtually guaranteed to hit a showstopper somewhere almost immediately. It's just not viable.
What are you talking about? This doesn’t have anything to do with the quality of individual doctors, or whether any particular procedure has value. (At least, as I understand the point of the descriptions of systems in action in the article.)
I have found myself in a similar position for most of my career. I also got into for the love of working with code. But I've stayed in the industry largely because it enables me to provide a comfortable lifestyle for my family.

I am still passionate about writing software, but the software I like to write doesn't pay the bills. It's avocational. The tech industry afforded my family the lifestyle I desire, but it didn't really ignite my passion, it was just lucrative.

I've since shifted into management. I'm finding new fulfillment in creating the kinds of teams I wish I had as an IC, that lets individuals work in ways they find fulfilling.
You can have best of both worlds. There are software that gives you complete control. I use Home Assistant with IKEA Tradfri lights. It works great. More advanced configurations are possible.

Hey, you asked for a "common sense explanation" how the policy works, and people gave it to you. If your intention was "I want to debate unrealistic what-ifs with as many people as possible," then you could have made yourself clear in the first question.
what political ideology got in the way
The whole point of this article is that nothing of the sort was revealed. The article specifically and repeatedly falsifies claims made in the Intercept article to that effect, as well as pointing things out like the Intercept citing fuzzy draft printouts of documents that are publicly available to create the impression that they leaked.

Masnick (who I'm not a fan of) was even more specific about this on Twitter, where he claims that literally every factual assertion about monitoring and suppression in the Intercept article has now been refuted. Not most of them, not the gist of them, all of them.
It's great that people set up rainwater collection, or or practice efficient water use, and if that makes them feel better, great, but it's not doing anything. Almost all water use is Ag, Commercial, and Industrial. Residential is a minute percentage.
I think there's truth to this but you're glossing over details that are critical. If the amount of variation between products were countable and predictable as you paint it, then you'd only need designers and a cms specialist who can configure the product. As a web shop, this is much cheaper to do. There are tons of website builders today which has saturated the "simple" market, but "intermediate" customers have small variations that still need custom integration work.

All in all, saying that dev work is repetetive is a hard sell, because if it was, you could just automate it. And we clearly haven't automated even the space of medium-complexity web apps yet.
Isn't the idea of Lemmy to run your own instance that could be used to host communities that don't speak English? In their instances list they have servers that speak German, Spanish, Portuguese, Finnish, Euskera, French...

Why would some non English speaking person be forced to change their language because someone in the USA decided that an innocuous word in their language is now a slur?

Also USA is not the only country speaking English and some words considered slurs or offensive in the US are not in other countries that also speak English.

They did in the end made it configurable and that's good, but their initial response is a major turnoff for anyone thinking on seriously running the software without planning to maintain a fork in the future.

> Depending on banks and countries instant payments have been a thing for a long time

Like how?

Mandatory implementation of accepting SEPA instant directive to banks was like 2-3 years ago. Afaik there was no instant payment within most of the major economies, case Germany. Banking outside UK in europe is still a pain for business and consumer.

Apple vs. Everyone: Why Rivals Are Sharpening Knives
Windows 10 is fine, so Windows 11 upgrades for most of our customers are based off a timeline working forward from Windows 10’s EoL date. Testing - deployment - procurement - full migration just in time for security updates to 10 to end.

We’re yet to discuss if we will recommend using a utility to allow upgrades on any officially unsupported hardware. Knowing our customers most would be very happy to roll the dice and avoid hardware upgrades.
The US telephone system has been digital except for the "last mile" since about the 80s. Speech is encoded as 8-bit samples at 8KHz, giving a Nyquist frequency of 4KHz, and using either µ-law[1] (US) or A-law (Europe) compression - you basically sample at 12-14 bits or so, take the logarithm of that value, truncate it to 8 bits and send it, and reverse the process at the other end.

If you take 24 of those 64Kbit/s channels and multiple them you get a T1[2]; 28 T1s were multiplexed into a T3. Basic ISDN multiplexed two 64KB channels and a 16KB signaling channel on a single wire, but it got very little use in the US.

The signals from those modems we were using in the 90s were getting digitized a few miles down the road, and at the ISP end the modem banks often connected directly with the digital phone system via a T1 line. (In fact "56K" modems relied on having a digital connection on the other end; the fastest modem speed with analog on both ends was I believe 33.6 with a V.34+ modem)

Well, the opposite. They're talking about him because that makes them money.
I suppose it depends on your use case, but I don't really consider 2x to be a significant difference. Between programming languages we often speak in orders of magnitude.

If JS is only half the speed of a compiled language like Rust, that shows remarkably optimized performance.

OsmAnd is also very bad in many states where you can't search for addresses because they don't have the data. Georgia is one example.

If the trauma surfaces and you have a negative reaction, it's likely the trauma could still be affecting your behavior and thus your life in some way.

They are talking about how Tucson is dealing with the worst drought in 1200 years, aren't they? What am I missing?

When people are fired from their jobs they no longer have money to spend, they don't take that trip to Disneyland this year (or whatever) and that shows up as reduced airline trips and miles driven, which impacts gas prices. Similarly because they're not buying as much consumer stuff that impacts deliveries. Businesses tighten spending which means less B2B stuff being bought which reduces manufacturing demand (and deliveries). That all drops demand for all kinds of energy and petroleum products.

I didn't mention the words "food" or "gas"[*] because I thought it was obvious, this stuff is really, really basic economics. The economy is all connected, so someone's contraction in spending is another market participant's contraction in demand--and as businesses see a contraction in their demand they adjust to contract their own spending.

When it comes to food, people contract their spending by starting to make coffee at home or just buy starbucks less often as a splurge rather than a daily thing, so that contracts revenue for starbucks, that leads to layoffs, which leads to less consumer spending, etc. The prices of staples don't usually drop as much because people still need to eat, but with reduced energy and transportation costs the supermarkets can reduce the cost of milk to try to attract customers.

[*] Actually on re-reading I did mention food and gas: "The reduced demands for goods then filters through the system producing more layoffs and more reduced demands for goods across every sector and the economy contracts into a recession." And "every sector" really means literally every sector of the economy--including "food and gas".
> The separation of work and play that so many online commenters form is perhaps key to this whole thing. Work is not a thing I do for money alone. I feel happy and fulfilled when I do it. It is fun!

That's not "online commenters". It's like 95+% of people who work for a paycheck.

> He's certainly not the first person to say "What if we could reuse the rocket?"

Of course. But he was the first person to make it work, which was very non-trivial. NASA failed at it for 60 years.

From sratch? I don't think so. DOS was bought from Tim Patterson. Microsoft BASIC ran on a computer created by others. Microsoft didn't invent BASIC. Neither did Apple. Apple didn't invent the 6502. The Apple 1 was built from off-the-shelf parts available to anyone.

Being a genius does not require being a success at everything. In fact, most successful people fail quite a lot. The difference between successful people and unsuccessful ones is the successful ones:

1. are not dissuaded by failure

2. learn from their mistakes and failures

3. try again and again

The unsuccessful ones "learn" from their failure by not trying again. Or they quit before they start.
Most minifiers already put things on one line, though.
When I was 17 I spent like an hour emailing a teacher telling her I’d be late on an assignment by a day. Because I was very anxious about writing an email to a “superior” and didn’t know how it’d go, or what the “right” email looked like.

Now I email hundreds of times a day, and have constantly shifted deadlines to no professional detriment. I still get nervous emailing a new important person, but you do it anyways.

Do people really forget what it’s like being young? Sometimes you just grow up and move on.
It doesn't have to be. If your devices support HDMI-CEC[0], then you can turn on 1 device and everything sets itself up. For example, I can turn on my PS4 and it automatically turns on the TV and sets the correct input.

Me: "sure it is." So I follow the footnote reference. That links to r/haskell. That post, in turn, is nothing but a link to r/golang. That post again is nothing but a link to Innoq, which is finally the article. Why make a reader jump through so many hoops?

SEEKING CO-FOUDER | Distributed GPU Compute, GIS, Computer Vision, Robotics, Collaborative Composite Streaming 3D Environments | Engineer | US | Pre-Seed

I have been building and managing multicloud GPU clusters for five years. Used to work at Nvida on RAPIDS AI. I have built a lot of kit for computer vision and robotics and have a fairly extensive lab including two FANUC 6DOF arms. I've recently partnered with a big data consultancy to deliver GPU accelerated big data products with a focus on GIS and visualization of maps with mixed reality assets (Digital twins and drone scans).

I like engineering. It's really hard to context switch between engineering and business development. I'm looking for a co-founder on the business side. Bonus points for being technical. Preferably with experience in data, computer vision, or robots. But if you just know a lot about how to get money, then great.

It (and all other GPS apps I've tried) work well enough, until you try to go somewhere you know well and have to turn it off to stop it from trying to reroute you over & over again.

If any app would allow me to have some sort of ability to let me set a level of "pain" (traffic, stoplights, smaller roads, extra turns) that's acceptable vs. a level of time savings, I'd use that app and never look back.

The number of times I've gone seemingly way out of the way only to rejoin a highway 30 minutes later in order to save 2 minutes total (vs the traffic I would have sat in) is way too damn high.

i had basically this same problem just yesterday. for years i would take calls with wired earbuds that had an integrated mic. i upgraded my iphone and now i have to use one of those lightning to 3.5mm adapters for that. the official adapters last for like 2-3 months until they begin flaking. not usually a deal-breaker, because it just means ~0.5s of lost audio every couple minutes but…

a recent iOS update made it so that if the earpiece disappears during a call then the OS drops the call. so i had to redial 3 times during my call. eventually we switched to Facetime, which still disconnects me upon audio drops but leaves the other side connected so that i just have to press “join” instead of redialing.

not an infra issue, but it adds up to the same crappy call experience.

I find it odd that Elon’s imperfections are a cause of such strong feelings.

Imagine how suffocating life would be for him if he endeavored to live up to the expectations of his detractors.

He would never start a company without being certain of success.

He’d be super nice to the diver (who told Elon to stick a submarine up his ass).

He’d never speculate about anything or discuss his vision for the future, because imperfect foresight makes people mad!

…and the haters would still hate. Happily for Elon, he seems content to be himself and deal with the silly complaints.

Like everywhere I go in NYC?

Pretty common for restaurants not to have a host, you just ask a waiter nearby and they tell you to sit anywhere you like, and that someone will be by to serve you.

Hosts are expensive and NYC restaurants are often quite small so it's very common not to have them.
