It worked well enough, then quickly got to a state of overwhelming the agency responsible for following up. That's depressing enough, but it was then repurposed and unleashed as a way to find copyrighted content for major studios, which meant it went from something doing good to something just annoying people with cease and desist notices.
I feel like that acceptance (and I’ve worked at a few places that have just been amazingly supportive and accommodating, long before it was widely discussed) is somehow vaguely related to the way us nerds don’t care about formal dress. “You do you” is the nerd individualistic way, and that seems to apply to a wide range of things, including lifestyle choices, fashion, being trans, and many other axes. So long as you can do the work, who cares how you choose to present?

It’s a neat thing about nerdland.
The act of publishing a poll on a very controversial subject may have been intentional. He alluded that the poll was attacked by bots, for which they likely collected large amounts of data.

It's very possible he already made his mind up before the poll was posted, and it was a behavioural data harvesting exercise.

This is mere speculation but certainly possible.
I'm curious why you feel this way. If we could find ways to make people with social anxiety more comfortable, why shouldn't we try to accommodate them?
Just wait for January 6th, 2023... Its gonna be a whole thing I bet.

Considering Trump had to block the exits to keep people from leaving his announcement speech, him being back on Twitter is likely going to be messy.

> But the CPU than needs to use a built in "hardware JIT" to translate the sequential command streams it receives to its internal data-flow operations. Somethings that's extremely inefficient and overly complicated—besides that it conceptually can't even help much. There is only so much parallelism extractable form an inherently sequential description of computation… (The most crazy part about this is that we have plenty information available on the high level which we happy erase during compilation, so we can present a "nice flat command stream" to the CPU. That's imho pure insanity).

Nonsense

ca 30 years ago there were (serious!) efforts to fix this on the CPU level - this whole VLIW CPU/smart compiler with explicit parallelism. Intel Itanium, Transmeta, Elbrus to name a few. It didn't work out well.

System research might produce something looking good but not working out well at the end.

It's interesting to see the follower count slowly increasing (currently at ~300k) as if they are pulling the list from cold storage. Also it seems like the tweets are slowly being loaded back in also as I can reach the bottom without anything else loading in, but that could be a bug with infinite scroll.

Perma-suspended Twitter accounts lose all of their followers.

More specifically:

something strange about the follower count, keeps going up, yet if you click on follow, you automatically unfollow him right away
Privacy is a natural right.

The rest of your comment is so incoherent I can't understand what you are trying to say.
Tons and tons of technical things!

I've seen (and caused/fixed) so many horrific things that I feel compelled to improve my expression skills... so that I can write them up more formally.

Most recently, I moved some of our Ubuntu systems away from network-scripts to systemd-networkd

I didn't realize the gravity of this change. Be warned, systemd-networkd will significantly change how forwarding works.

Due to things outside of my control, we have some systems playing router. They didn't like this change a whole lot, and I neglected to test this.

On network-scripts with the usual kit of sysctl and iptables rules, you're good to go.

networkd however requires more explicit configuration; particularly which interfaces may forward.

Not a big deal, unless you don't know... like I didn't

One difference is that Docker containers use a separate file system isolated from the host, so you have to separately install your editor/shell in there, mount/clone your dotfiles, etc. With a Nix-based development environment, it can add/override the tools you need, but you get to keep your shell customizations, editor config, etc.

Also reproducibility; it can be achieved with containers if you save the artifact (the container image), but that's not what people do in practice, they save only the recipe (the Dockerfile), and if you execute it tomorrow, it will produce a different result than today, and it will likely not even run one year from now (due to e.g. third-party apt repos changing their url, signing keys expiring, curl|bash installers that are no longer hosted, etc.). With Nix, every run will produce the same results, and sources for everything packaged in Nixpkgs are saved by nixos.org.

I think this is a great example of a book for learning a language. The cartoon illustrations are both funny and illustrative. The characters are consistent, too - each one represents a different concept.

Most people probably won't be using Forth in the future, but you can definitely learn about teaching a programming language from this book. Jt is a great example.

Musk claimed that he was forming a "moderation council with widely diverse viewpoints" and that "No major content decisions or account reinstatements will happen before that council convenes". As far as I know, it was never formed but he unbanned Trump anyway. Seems like moderation on Twitter will just be "if Musk likes it, it's allowed."

The reason that this is considered a failure mode is that these systems are set up so that you can't just ignore activists who speak for, or claim to be speaking for, an approved minority. Just saying "no, I'm going to ignore your demands" gets you hurt, because you are required to take positive action.

The comparison is pretty interesting, however SolveSpace is badly misrepresented by "not parametric". In my opinion easy, stable and very flexible (the same tools are used in 2d and 3d) parametric modelling is it's greatest strength.

I agree with everything here but the presumption that "Leadership" is taking its cues from "internet communities" does not compute for me.

I for one am not so sure this so-called "leadership" cares for family, as a social unit. Accordingly, there is (for me at least) the possibility that this "leadership" is using a pretext to achieve related but orthogonal goals, since purely on rational, moral, and ethical basis, causing this much social division and disruption over this niche issue does not make any sense.
Why? Risky in a regulatory sense, or in a safety sense? With so much other electronics in a modern car, I can't see it being particularly more risky than having a computer running the engine etc.

Moving Murfie to Pine Bluff has been a disaster. The entire situation has been bad for Murfie users and myself.

I'm coming up on 3 years now with very minimal progress on returning media to users and getting the site fully operational.

There are a lot of places where in hindsight I could have made better decisions. At every point the best course seemed to stand out, only to sour with unexpected obstacles.

At first I thought I could stay in the warehouse, but then the returns became too much to complete before I had to vacate.
COVID struck, and delayed the container move. Then I couldn't use my warehouse, and couldn't unload the containers. This is delayed efforts to return media and restore files that would have been easy to replace if I could unload the containers. Meanwhile Murphy customers have been 3 years without their discs or access to their media. I feel terrible about it. Some have died without getting their media.

I'm still fighting to do the right thing. I've filed a lawsuit against the city for refusing to issue permits, and I'm constantly looking for solutions, but I feel like I've failed a lot of people.
It'll be interesting to see if he's more interested in promoting his Truth Social business or getting mass attention on Twitter.
Good luck to them, but I'll never use Nix. It's as obscure and annoying as Gentoo (or maybe more) with no practical benefits over anything else.

Also, I was using the root commenter's terminology, not my own interpretation. I would lean more towards your definition. It seems nobody can agree...
I'm sure he would remark that he consulted the largest moderation council available, the general public, or some equally lame shit like that. The guy does what he wants.
Would you like to live in a society where the laws are the same as they are now, but it’s impossible to break them and not be caught?

(I know I’m jumping right to where the slippery slope ends.)
By default, talking and walking like a chicken doesn't make you one, but you can always muck around with your prototype if you want to count as one.
The fact that we don't have a better solution now is why it's worth researching. We only have modern cars because we didn't consider transportation "solved" when we had horse-pulled carriages. Many people are looking for better solutions right now, because we believe they certainly exist.
> Nobody can stop you from using the same email address (ie identity) on a different mailing list.

If you use an address under someone elses domain, they can. If you use your own domain, you can do that in the fediverse too - with the caveat that with email both range of offerings to do this without selfhosting and technical portability are better. (although the fediverse side of things hopefully will improve)

Reminds me of the hole the soviets dug back in the 80s: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kola_Superdeep_Borehole

"To scientists, one of the more fascinating findings to emerge from this well is that no transition from granite to basalt was found at the depth of about seven kilometers (4.3 mi), where the velocity of seismic waves has a discontinuity. Instead, the change in the seismic wave velocity is caused by a metamorphic transition in the granite rock. In addition, the rock at that depth had been thoroughly fractured and was saturated with water, which was surprising. This water, unlike surface water, must have come from deep-crust minerals and had been unable to reach the surface because of a layer of impermeable rock"
The longest wells are already close to 10 miles, but it is mostly horizontal. My understanding is going deep you eventually hit hot rock which has a clay like texture and isn’t amenable to drilling.

Core drilling is quite different from well drilling which would be used in this case.
> One difference is that Docker containers use a separate file system isolated from the host, so you have to separately install your editor/shell in there, mount/clone your dotfiles, etc.

Can't you just mount a volume from your host machine? Then you can use your regular editor, and just run commands from inside the container.

I hope the Aptera gets made. Being able to charge with 110v and get a decent amount of range overnight seems like a good thing, especially or renters who may not have access to a quick charger where they live.
Fair, and I can afford it too. But I also have the (modest) time available to do some things myself, and YouTube is a stupendous resource for basic stuff like how to plumb a sink or snake a drain or fix a water softener seal or wire a GFCI or any number of hundreds of other things you might want to know.

It's no judgment on those who feel differently, but I find value in picking up random skills and tools and really appreciate along the way the chance to break a sweat with friends and family over these types of situations.

And sometimes it really is a major savings— I spent ~$600 last year on materials and tool rentals that saved me what likely would have been a $10k plumbing visit (broken drain pipe under a concrete floor).
That actually is who he consulted. His poll got 15 million votes.
I think it depends on the company you're interviewing at.

If you're interviewing at Amazon, you better have some cases you've prepared where things didn't go according to plan, and where you learned something from that. You had better be willing to stand up and say "I don't know", but you should also quickly follow that with "I will find out and get you the answers within X days".

So all major moderation decisions on Twitter will be Musk posting a poll?

edit: He's also claimed that people were botting the poll, so it doesn't seem particularly reliable.
But how often do you actually make a 600 mile trip? (and how often in a day? That's a good 10 hours of driving) Carrying around all that extra battery weight for your daily 20 mile round-trip commute doesn't seem very efficient (energy or moneywise). And if you did make a 600 mile trip in a day, well, you've gotta stop to eat, right? The car can be charging while you're eating.

If we lived in such a society I would imagine we would be a bit more careful as we drafted laws. It would also be a lot more equitable due to the lack of selective enforcement.
It amazes me how most of the world is on 240V I'm in Canada and we are like the USA 120V 20A circuits.

Today I made tea and I used a standalone electric kettle which is odd to most of us here in Canada and the US. Most times I would have used the microwave to boil the water. But I used the kettle 120V x 12.5A or 1500W and popped the breaker since the dishwasher was operating and on the same circuit.

In Canada we drink a lot of tea; Red Rose, King Cole and especially south-eastern Canada The Maritimes and Atlantic Canada.
Actually true but for another reason ... When my relatives ask for help on Windows I apologize and tell them I'm a Linux user.
> I'm impressed with the risks Hyundai has been taking with their design language, especially on the EVs. This car is striking. Love it or hate it, boring it's not.

Sure, in the sense that ripping off the Porsche Cayenne is risky at being sued for IP theft; it's sad but as it turns out the EV automotive design is about as stale as ICE is. That Dolorean Prototype Hyundai have been playing with was very reminiscent and likely borrowing off the polarizing hype of the Cybertruck--and since both are prototypes they don't need to do much other than the one off for PR reasons.

I disagree, Hyundai is doing what the Japanese started to do in the late 60's, that is apply their Industry know-how to European and American counterparts auto design, because quite frankly if you buy a Hyundai or a Kia it's quite likely it's for the cost and newly found reliability rather than the aesthetic aspect of the car.

This isn't to put down Hyundai, they were late enough to the automotive game that platform sharing was a thing and could pivot to EV in earnest; but the truth is that automotive design is simply a dead art and there is very little to no innovation going on, it's just rehashes of everything else.

I suspect if we fed any of these image based AIs all the cars and prototypes we've ever had we'd come up with something rather more unique than what we have now, the sad thing is because of standardization they would remain prototypes because of the costs and labour to get something like that to mass production.

Toyota is the best example of this, in that they are very visually boring cars but have optimized for QC and reliability to such an extent that you don't mind that much for what you get.

Personally speaking, I'm looking forward to the Hot-rod era re-birth when they will start to sell low cost EV swaps for old cars with minor fabrication kits: like how you can drop LSX into most chassis now. Because seeing a resto-mod 1940s Buick or Cadillac with a Model S Plaid power train seems way cooler than anything the OEMs will come out anymore.
> I’d love a tool where i can just `cd /tmp/my-hourlong-project` and then `devenv python` to get a python shell that’ll have everything i often use (and probably more)

There's a dozen projects that do this. But it would honestly take you as much time to write a shell script to do it as use some other project to do it.

Like, seriously:

#!/usr/bin/env sh
