You show bias
I started at 24 - certainly regret nothing, but I also can't say it was the smoothest path :D Trying to provide and care while being new to the job market was quite a ride.

There's been some changes to make having kids less of a challenge in recent years - at least in Europe. But it still seems like there's a long way to go, especially in terms of corporate cultures that, in my experience, don't really know what to do with young parents.
I would highly recommend to use systemd-networkd based networking which should be able to do almost everything if configured correct.
Read this as "Mozilla have acquired a pulse" and assumed some sort of drastic changes.
Agreed. I was looking forward to it, because puzzles, but yeah, no. I am not an enterprise, don't care to lock me down to a specific service.
Yes. That is 200k more than what Firefox should be paying for a non dev.
Could they hire 2 100k developers more ? I would be happy if that was done.

Its not like Tim cook has to manage "shareholders expectations" or "show off the company is well off that they can pay a CEO so much".
So, according to your argument, which you've stated twice now[1], it's okay for regulation of consumer devices.

Once again, I have to ask, why do you feel that phones should be exempt from regulation?

> Additionally megaquirt themselves repeatedly remind you their products are not legal for road use [2]:

Yeah, but they're perfectly legal for owners of the cars to use, as long as they stay on the track. You're arguing for not modifying the device at all, regardless of where it is going to be used.

[1] Thanks, by the way. It's awfully hard to get iPhone supporters to agree that regulation is a good thing once, nevermind twice.
Having kids younger is not a simple choice. My wife was already 35 when we met, we couldn't have started younger.
We have thought about that! It's a nice approach for some use cases but having just a read-only copy ends up being pretty limiting. Often people using internal tools (particularly customer success) needs to modify some fields in a record but shouldn't have unrestricted access to everything. We've found that being able to protect specific fields instead of the entire database gives a lot more flexibility.
Yes, just look at the twitter thread, most people are not even noticing that the answers are wrong.
Android is a very real and clear alternative. Android dominates market share. How you can say there isn't a clear alternative, I don't know.
Firefox Ubuntu: black screen and "panic: atlas: the image being put on an atlas is too big: width: 480, height: 2400" in the console.
> but if it crashes from a system perspective (segfault or some such), it takes down all neighbouring processes as well

there are three different types of crashes in Erlang.

First there are processes `spawn`ed with the spawn primitive. If such a process crashes, there's no risk for any other process in the system, not even exceptions can bubble up (or be intercepted for that matter).

The second type is a linked process, a process whose faith has been linked to their children.

In that situation if a parent process dies, intuitively all the children processes die with it too.

If a child process dies, it brings down the parent too, and if the parent process is a child itself, recursively until the top Application process.

It sounds risky until you realize that this mechanism allows parent processes to intercept child processes dying and act accordingly (restart one, restart all, ignore it, etc.)

That's how supervision works in Erlang.

Finally, if a process crashes when running as NIF (Native Implemented Function) or, to put it simply, a native library written in C (or that can export the same C calling convention) injected into the VM, it can bring down the entire VM.
I don't get this obsession with mainstream 'the man' controlling the narrative. For example the FT slams him so much it's boring. They even have a (great) data driven article about how he sucked at LoL.
The data structures can be found in the code, but I agree it'd be better to have a spec. I tried to design it so one day such a spec could be written (lots of dependencies on pre-existing specs for example) but it never became a priority.
He meant "a written constitution." Judges do look at precedents, only there isn't one that's officially above all others.

(As I understand it, not being British.)

As someone who has used Linux on the Desktop for 20+ years, I can say with pretty high confidence that open source flash players could not run more than a trivial amount of real world flash content at the end of its life cycle ~10 years ago.
I was messing around with CSS animations the other day and even at 100ms you can definitely see the animation happening. One of these days I'll get around to making a site to A/B test how fast they are noticeable.

Maybe there are circumstances where 100ms+ latency is not noticeable, but I suspect they are few and far between if you're actually paying attention.
People in countries with very low incomes tend to have more children. One reason is that children can start helping out the family very young and be working to contribute by their teenage years. Another goal is to gain retirement security. If you have 8 children you’ll have someone to take care of you in old age.

I think these are 2 separate use cases, one for organized knowledge and one for related links. Google doesn't compile knowledge as well, but it does good job on finding related links.
Trust is a ladder, and identifying the make/model of device is but one rung of it.
The UX is much nicer with flakes.

Flakes provide a consistent entry-point to a set of Nix files (rather than just a hoping that Nix files conform to some convention).

Nix flakes also let you get by with even less worry about the system state: e.g. you don't need to add channels or put your code in your user's overlays directory. You can just use the path/URI to a flake, and nix will take care of downloading all the inputs appropriately.

Reminds me of the (in?)famous Dropbox comment: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=9224.

It's one thing to implement something. It's another thing to implement it in a way that makes other people want to use it.
Yep, I can confirm this based on personal experience with a gynecologist telling my wife that at 35 the pregnancy is considered a "geriatric pregnancy" (apparently some docs now call it "AMA"...advanced maternal age).

This shocked both of us, frankly. We were aware of what the actuarial tables will tell you regarding birth defect rates related to maternal age, but hearing the term geriatric in your mid-thirties is quite shocking. I'm ignorant of any data around paternal age and sperm count (assume it goes down...no idea the rate), but the docs do tend to focus on maternal age quite a bit regarding possible defects and fertility.

Nonetheless we were able to conceive in our late 30s without help or any trouble. Our baby is super healthy. Apparently we lucked out.
I'm running NixOS on a Dell Precision laptop. I'm really happy with it!

People used to have kids as a source of free labor, not as a money sink. I wonder if it’s still the case in many places.
USCIS literally dictates how company uses H1B. OPT and H1B have to submit a document, signed by manager, explain their responsibility.

I'm pretty sure if that says "im doing nothing. I just get paid". They will be in trouble.

This case is uncharted because nobody knows how long on the payroll is wrong. We can all agree 2y is wrong. But 3 months, 4 months, 3 months 2 days? Nobody knows.

I gave you a few other examples where the lengths of periods are also arbitrary. One of them is even around immigration.

I suspect the increasingly shrinking demographic of churchgoers is different in this regard from the rest of the population. I think they're right in saying people who plan typically don't plan children for before 30, I don't know anyone near my age (early 20s) who is doing that; many don't want children at all.
What was botched about it? Society’s laws and justice system says guy has to go to prison. Guy says “I’d rather die than go.” Guy makes good on his choice.

My understanding is that Amazon’s online store has become less of a store and more of an advertisement.

Amazon has been optimizing profits, and it appears what they’ve realized is that the less they do the more they profit. So they went from selling goods -> charging others to sell goods to you -> basically charging others to market that they have goods to sell
I've built a plugin-system back in 2003 or so based on the JVM which can load/re-load bytecode relatively easily.

(the concept became popular in the JVM world and lead to abominations like OSGi)

The problems that arose quickly were:
- Executing order of plugins attaching to the same extension point.

- Third party library dependencies having different versions

- Traceability and debugging

- Thread-safety

OTOH, it gave our custom dev team to develop integrations and extensions that could be deployed and maintained independently of the main product.
So there's definitely a use-case in there, but it requires some coordination regardless.

I wonder what this will do to misinformation. Seems like the next big culture war will be over AI. What seems very Utopian will quickly be framed as dystopian. If AI doesn't promote "opposing positions" it will definitely become the target of politicians ire, if not outright banning as <insert political party here> propaganda. For example, what would AI say in terms of the effectiveness of Ivermectin in combatting COVID-19? or Vaccine injury rates? Would AI argue that lockdowns are the most effective measure against a spreading pandemic?

I'm trying to figure out what Extism is actually providing here.

The underlying runtime appears to be Wasmtime, an existing project that you can use separately.

For the system API, Extism supports WASI (a POSIX-like API for WASM) which is already supported by Wasmtime. However it sounds like it also has a different, non-WASI API that provides similar functionality. I'm curious to hear a compare/contrast between these two system APIs, or what motivated inventing a new non-WASI system API. It does appear that WASI is in its early days; WASI was announced in 2019 (https://hacks.mozilla.org/2019/03/standardizing-wasi-a-webas...) but it appears that all of the specific proposals are still early stage and far from being standardized (https://github.com/WebAssembly/WASI/blob/main/Proposals.md).

For the API, Extism provides a C API/ABI that can be called through FFI, but AIUI Wasmtime already has such an API: https://docs.wasmtime.dev/c-api/

Basically I'm trying to understand the conceptual difference between this project and Wasmtime.

There is already a company which is doing similar thing in the UK for Wind Farms. I can't find the name right now though, they were featured on the Fully Charged youtube channel.

I am not in the UK, and I'd gladly invest in a solar farm as a "community member" to cover my own usage but in my country noone is doing it - and probably I would not trust them either (eastern EU). I was actually looking for this a few weeks ago, and the only thing I found is that I can sponsor some African farms through some EU scheme.

In any case, if someone knows some good solar farms which have this community ownership model, I'd be happy to check it out.

I think the Wind Farm was this one from Ripple: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=65rlHr6ey4I

It would be interesting to see concrete tests. Gamers have long preferred wired keyboards and mice supposedly for latency reasons, with the only wireless models they’ll accept being proprietary 2.4Ghz RF protocols designed specifically for lowering latency (e.g. Logitech’s Lightspeed lineup).

I have a Lightspeed mouse as part of my gaming setup and it does feel very responsive, easily good enough for my needs, but I’m not a chart topping FPS player who’d be pushing these devices to their limits.
It doesn't have to go fully into lethal territory either. Simply putting a camera in there helps the police. Even more with things like bean bag rounds, dazzlers, tasers, pepper spray, CS gas, rubber bullets, etc.

A screen and a camera to allow negotiation "facetime" would be helpful as well.

It's not that they can't acquire. In fact they invented this tech and have their own models just as good. But the "problem" is you can run such a model on a computer of your own, like Stable Diffusion. And this model could interface between you and the web, doing the final part of question answering. Then you are not forced to see any ads. So the language model has the potential to free us from their ads. You can download a language model, you can't "download a Google".

If you don't think you can run a decent language model on a normal computer check out Google's own FLAN T5 series. Local language models mean more privacy and empowerment for everyone.
So what is your argument in this case? That no one is allowed to portray themselves as the good guy unless they're 100% perceived as good by everyone?
