To be fair at no point have any of the educational experts or administration ever claimed that I am not retarded. It was never retracted I simply left school when I was older. If we trust the experts on this I'm severely handicapped. Who's to say I'm not a retard?
But there's no such thing as a "similar" hash - change one character in the HTML, and the hash would be completely different.
It boggles my mind Microsoft didn't get into the custom ARM chip design game years ago like Google, Amazon, etc. I imagine it's far too late now especially with the state of the semiconductor and supply chain world. Good luck betting your future on Qualcomm, hope it works out.
I understand, but the topic of this article is about embedded systems. Java is not a player here.
> Yeah, I feel like the vast majority of the time this would be better handled by splitting out that block into a function.

It's a nice idea, and Rust supports "local" fn definitions inside blocks so it would be quite elegant as well.
It took me three months to go through tech interviews. I'd say that's cutting it close.
That's genuinely interesting (have an upvote) but a social media site's responsibility in a situation such as this is to assess legality, not prosecutability, hence it would be removed.
I couldn't actually. There was a counter and three people between me and the boxes. They actually wanted to help me but weren't allowed to. I'm not going to ask a retail employee to risk getting fired over a jacket.
I could be wrong, but I think people get irked by shallow virtue signaling, especially when it's combined with superficial thoughts-and-prayers type of aid/advice, more than the the choice of political issues.

Although, I suppose recent political issues that everyone's already talking about, and a project tries to "raise awareness" reeks of a misguided virtue signaling PR stunt than when one talks about long-standing issues. Not saying this is the case here, though, as Rust is hardly something that needs PR.

I'm sure part of the reaction is that Twitter is full of this type of virtue signaling, and people have become allergic to it. I remember the whole "Yeah, this little master->main change will be a tectonic shift. Back pats all around! We did it people; we solved racism!" attitude that Twitter had during the main/master debate lol. Yes, make changes in what is probably the most progressive industry (since we nerds are generally more tolerant/progressive), like that's gonna make a difference in the morally decrepit police force, which the protests were about to begin with.

Anyway... I'm not sure what the word is, but I feel it's a next door neighbour to hypocrisy? And hypocrites annoying everyone.

Personally though, I think it's always good to talk about human rights or mental health issues! I'm not sure a paragraph everyone will skip is an adequate place for that, but it's a nice token effort, and it's somewhat commendable someone cared enough to put it in.

Anyway, this is all a bit incoherent, but I don't care enough to wordsmith the comment, only to share some of my opinions.

> Depending on the hardware and on the application, either Linux or FreeBSD can be faster, but in the majority of the cases the winner is Linux.

I'm not denying this, but do you have a source? I've been trying to find modern "Linux vs FreeBSD" performance tests but haven't been super successful. Mostly I find things from the early 2000s when FreeBSD had a clear lead.
Solar/storage will certainly power a geothermal heat pump, replacing an oil burner that would otherwise burn ~diesel. Or a car that would otherwise burn gasoline (modulo the long timeline of capex).

Yes, there are definitely fundamental engineering constraints when it comes to renewable energy sources. Which is exactly why it makes sense to encourage tackling all of the low hanging fruit we can, rather than continuing to waste limited dinosaur juice out of convenience or inertia.

Politically, it's awfully hard to separate past government action and actions by mutually-acting companies, from current government policies. Biden got politically pinned with the price inflation that happened due to all the monetary inflation of the Trump administration. The brazen consumer price inflation that started happening a year+ ago seems to have been kicked off by a bunch of news articles announcing it, etc. The narrative about approving new drilling leases seems like it has nothing to do with current extraction rates, and everything to do with fossil fuel companies wanting to title up the public commons now, for use in the future.
> Depending on the hardware and on the application, either Linux or FreeBSD can be faster, but in the majority of the cases the winner is Linux.

Do you have any data to back that up? Everything I've seen recently and my own experience tells me this isn't the case but I also don't have any data to back up my position. Would love to find some good data on this either way.
There is a nice GUI on MacOS called Vorta I think.
For a typical Ubuntu desktop user this is such a PITA. A small app like Spotify client takes around 15 seconds to start up on my beefed up workstation. Canonical pretends this issue doesn't exist but I've had enough and I'm switching to Fedora.

They are openly hostile towards their own users.
Sounds fun and would make a heck of a story at social times.

Some women are attracted to dangerous "bad boys" that momma would disapprove of. Invent some BS story and show them your alternate identity as proof and you'll be in it in a minute.
I don't view that as a hidden issue. I view that as the cost.

And agreed that conforming to what others are doing will, by definition, get you more support. I just think there is hidden value in that diversity. It sucks, as it can't be forced/codified.

I will further agree that too many will chase the "long game" of "if we support diverse environments, we will have a more robust product," at the expense of short term health. And often that is a false dichotomy, in that often the best long term choice for a team is also the best short term tradeoff. Surviving is important.
Discussed recently in another story, but many including me like Pop!_OS as a better version of Ubuntu.
You're right, which is is why more and more they're not being told what they should do, but what they must do whether they like it or not.
It's cybersecurity departments that mandate these policies. In my organization a lot of these people come by way of the U.S. Air Force and NSA. They literally have seats at the table in the White House for DHS (Department of Homeland Security) meetings. Can you guess for what the advocate? Yep - SMS 2FA!

Now imagine you're the CEO of my company (a Fortune 200 company), a company that's responsible for infrastructure that's been deemed vital to the security of the United States. Who do you think the CEO is going to listen to, me or the Air Force guys and guys hailing from American's top three letter security agencies?

Now, if that's what our CEO is doing then what do you think your CEO is doing? That's right - they're looking at what we're doing. They know we have our personnel engaged in meetings at the White House. They know we're managing nationally critical infrastructure. They know how we're securing our customer-facing applications - and that's SMS 2FA.

My advice is to keep your mouth shut unless you're a recognized security expert. You're just spending political capital for naught.
>> In practice it's not the case, but very technically from a purely theoretical standpoint, I think he's right.

> There's no theoretical way for a hash map to work without storing the key - the reason for that is hash collisions in presence of which you do need to run equality comparison with stored keys otherwise you would overwrite data just because of hash clashes.

There's a ton of material in a Data Structures course. I'm sure the point about storing the key was mentioned at some point, but it's not the focus when talking about different hashing strategies etc. For people with a bunch of experience (e.g. I'd been writing Perl for years before this, so being able to iterate across a hash and get (k,v) pairs was obvious) it's a detail that is already there in your brain, but if the DS course is your first exposure to a hash map, it's a detail that can easily get lost in the huge forest of other brand new things to learn.
There's no porting to be done. You can run Windows 10 / 11 on a Raspberry Pi 400 today.
Can you explain the "Idea Fourier"?
If you basically-Ubuntu-but-more-free then yes, Debian.

If you want a paradigm shift, try NixOS + home-manager.
I can finish UP in a day if I really lean into it. This one takes weeks to get through, and I've done it multiple times.
I started out as a member of Hack Club's online community -- I discovered them through the GitHub Newsletter, and then made a multiplayer game with its own economy playable through their Slack (github.com/hackagotchi/hackagotchi) -- and then graduated high school in the middle of Covid with no plans and ended up working here. The purpose of the Sprig project is to engage and energize our online community. While our mission is to support teenage hackers, there are no hard and fast rules about what it means to be one. While we're not sending out devices to people over 19, we still accept games from them and show them in our gallery. Does that answer your question?
> Turns out it is more diplomatic to reach out to someone privately first.

Why
Hello jtthe and thank you for your feedback! We are aware that many people would benefit form the Office365 integration. It is in our roadmap (https://akiflow.canny.io/features-and-improvements-request/p...) and will be developed in the next few months.
> "Is council tax basically property tax?"

Yes, it's basically a residential property tax as it's based (very loosely) on property value and is payed per-property, not per-resident. But it falls on the resident, not the property owner.

Called council tax because it funds council services like street maintenance and rubbish collection.
Rated 4.5 out of 5. It would be nice if this was split for the iPhone experience vs iPad. I suppose if we had install/usage counts for iPhone/iPad we might be able to tell if it was good on one or both.

I've been using Vorta as a GUI for Borg for a while for personal use. It's not the prettiest thing out there but it has seemed to work fine so far. As far as restoring from old backup goes, though, I've only really tried that with a few individual files.

Windows still seems to be unsupported.
Do you think the outcomes on, say, the US Supreme Court are better?
I applied for a job.

I did a coding assignment.

I was asked to read two xml files, one with data, one with operations, and perform the operations on the data.

The task was deliberately unclear and suggested to not use third party software.

So I did the thing and wrote an xml parser.

I documented my decisions in design etc.

Later I found out that one could have used any third party XML reader package.

I was declined for other reasons but when asking for feedback on my code, all I got was: You did not check for divisions by zero.

I am still wondering what skill they actually wanted to test with the coding assignment.
In the silver league of US tech, which is broader than most people seem to think, the standard severance pay is a nice cool 0. Usually the only conversation is about all the agreements they try to convince you that you have to sign for no compensation as they’re escorting you out the door.
I second this but mostly because I'm an unrepentant nerd who REALLY wants one of these to show off at my tech workshops for kids :D
I understand the appeal as the developer, Linux package management is heavily fragmented. The snap is build once deploy everywhere. But there are a lot of drawbacks for the user. I don't want my applications to be huge bundles that use twice the ram and have an alternate update system. As a primarily Debian user, I would much rather have a deb repo. If they insist on bundling it like this, flatpak would be a better choice than snap.
I don't think we're disagreeing. Devs have no incentive to develop for ARM if there is no market share like you said, so they're not going to buy a $599 kit and its existence won't sway them either.

I think there will come a time when the number of ARM Windows machines increases though.

This kit is useful for the devs who care about the performance of their programs on ARM kit but they'll only optimise for it if the market is there.
This isn't babbling at all, the sentiment in your 2nd paragraph is so accurate that you could drop the qualifiers "largely" and "probably" and it would become even more accurate.
They ported Windows 10 IoT to run on the pi (it's not a desktop Windows experience though, don't get your hopes up). I'm not sure they maintain or care about it anymore though, I think they moved to Azure IoT that's Linux-based.
And the ones most responsible largely remain in their positions of authority and reserve the right to try to impose the same techno-fascistic abuse schemes again in the future.
Can't speak for GP, but the only thing it made me click was the 'flag' button.

(Because titles like this are the exception to the 'as in TFA' rule, and generally are de-Buzzfeedified either by submitter or mod.)
Pop is nice for plug and play.

Manjaro or mint too.
I agree with the significance. I've liked the additions over the past few years of course, but the last time I felt a release was this significant was async, I believe 1.39, about 3 years ago.

And coincidentally, the times I've wanted to reach for GATs have been when dealing with Futures (specifically dealing with lifetimes of Futures produced by Fns; basically what gates async functions in traits). I'm excited to be able to finally use them in my APIs!
It's always a tradeoff between blast radius and (in)convenience.

With everything in one account someone might accidentally destroy your production environment. That'll be awkward to explain. And with IAC, it could be as simple as one change to a VPC config that recreates instead of updates the VPC.

In normal IT (not Twitter) you usually have a production and test environment at least. The inconvenience more than makes up for accidentally destroying something in production. And before you say anything, if you haven't done that you haven't been in IT for long enough.

However, if you want to do it your way you should become the director and make it that way. You'll be sorry, but that'll be on your head.

I'm not sure if that's possible, but I haven't checked.
> Except we can back up the effect electrification has on transportation.

Making an aberration 20% more efficient doesn't make it less of an aberration

The rebound effect kills all these efficiency claims anyways, you're decreasing the effect per unit not the overall effect
While this incident isn't good, I still think the setup is a ton better than Flathub, where you have flatpaks being maintained by third parties with no relationship to the software vendors. For example, all of the Jetbrains snaps are managed by a volunteer, as is Zoom (!)

Compromise one of those devs' personal computers, and you've now got a path to getting a backdoor out to everybody using those. I trust Canonical's security team over random volunteers.
I looked at recall-app.com and decided not to invest time exploring it further. The reason I passed is the same reason I moved from Roam to Obsidian and will stay with Obsidian:

* Data in some mysterious location "in the browser" with a promise of future export capability which will be delivered at the worst possible time of a product's life-cycle: when the company is dying.

* Data in plain text on my computer right now and always.

No aspersions cast on either company's people, intentions, goodwill, or the products' (Roam and Recall) quality and value. It's just that "I own my own life" is an organizing principle that I violate at my peril. My life is more important to me than your app.

As for the comment "ideas are cheap and execution is everything," I'm not sure how to connect that question to the success/failure of recall-app.com. The IF/THEN does not compute in my brain.
I think it's possible to know how to control one's tongue and also not like being told what to say or how to speak, quite possibly because one knows how to do that and because they have their own mind.
existential?
YouTube does not care about the audio or video quality itself. It only cares about the numbers of views, likes, etc.
An app that I’d consider somewhat similar is Concepts with its unlimited canvas size.

I am looking forward to seeing what this offers though.
Nothing. Daniel Meissler (Unstructured Learning) convinced me it was a good idea. I followed his outline, choosing to use Hugo rather than WordPress because I ran a WordPress honeypot for a while and WP draws a lot of attention.

Elon should not couple revenue generation with identity verification. Their should be a "Twitter Green" that lets users link a credit card to charge a one-time $1 fee. Twitter blue should allow power-users to customize their feed algorithm and be $20 per month.
> The rest of the innards are a bit of a mess. It seems obvious the guts were basically a Surface Pro X-style main board rearranged to fit inside a desktop case. And Microsoft missed out on a few golden opportunities, like adding in a 2.5 Gbps network port instead of a stodgy old 1 Gbps port. But the box does have WiFi 6E and triple display support built in (one via mini DisplayPort, two via USB-C).

Is 2.5Gbps networking at all common?

hi - Sprig firmware dev.

Things would go wrong on the device but I would have no idea how to diagnose it because I didn't know what all Kaluma was doing for us. EX: to write to flash, you can't have any IRQs going or code running on another core. How do we know what all Kaluma is doing while running our code?

We were going to need a Kaluma-less runtime just to debug our renderer, audio and input handling anyway, haha. I didn't think you were going to let me spend time doing it instead of scrambling to fix bugs with our Kaluma-based impl, so I spent a weekend prototyping our own runtime. It worked, so I didn't have to wait for Kaluma's 2 minute build times anymore.
> somewhat overstaffed

somewhat? It has 8 THOUSAND employees to run a payment processor.
I've got a 2SE on my wrist right now, with a few in storage.

For the cost of a brand new case ($30) and batteries, I plan to keep using them until the software fails spectacularly.

There's really nothing that compares for my usage.
Borg works great (except mounting) under Cygwin.
Signal Snap Maintainer here, this is because of a DMCA takedown request from lawyers representing Signal. Canonical is currently working with them to clear things up.

Canonical's communication to me was initially lacking due to issues in their process, the process has been amended and I'm back in the loop again.
Absolutely, when I want to find something, the first thing I will do is DNF search. It's amazing how much you can find and so quickly. It sorts in a smart way as well, where exact matches will appear first, then partial matches on the package name, and then metadata. This makes it quick and easy to see if what I want is there.

When searching on Google, I have to look through a bunch of crappy results from SEO optimized crap. Then when I find something that looks interesting, I have to see if it's packaged for Fedora or not. If not, then I have to hunt down either a GitHub page or look for a RPM file or a flat pack or app image. I won't use a snap even if it's the only distribution method.

There's also a very convenient way of checking for popularity, which doesn't necessarily mean it's a bad pic, but if the package is popular enough that somebody has packaged it for Fedora and maintains the package, there's a very high chance that it will work as needed.

If you don't currently check the apt or DNF repos first, I would definitely recommend doing so.
For prose fiction, I don't see much here that is going to drive people away from Indesign. Designers and typesetters aren't really interested in doing that kind of work in a system that would require generating new output for every correction. Even relatively simple tasks like balancing columns in a spread would become a pain.
See if that is your definition of "harassment" then we have widely different definition as I find that comment neither racist nor harassment

I do something like this. EncFS a local clone of my data, and rsync that clone to remote servers.

I prefer this over complex formats created by software like duplicati. This is easier to recover 20 years from now (I just went through that with a USB stick from 2001 :P )
Switching distros is pretty easy. Debian is a classic that will support KDE and will be familiar in some other ways.

If you're writing software, the switch will be a great way to see that your code is robust and not too closely coupled to the peculiarities of Ubuntu. Portability may not be an explicit goal but it turns out to have some benefits.
