CEA is based in Oxford, as is 80,000 hours, the Future of Humanities Institute, and many more orgs. In Cambridge you have similar organizations. At the same time there's transport links to Heathrow. All of this in a property that will appreciate in value due to Oxfordshires zoning laws and the general history of the place. If this was 15m sunk cost I'd agree it's crazy but owning a conference space that's cheaper than you'd find in the cities, close to a lot of the core orgs, and is a nice place that won't depreciate in value (and that was privately funded directly, this isn't using an aggregate of peoples infrastructure funds).
> As for the article, what is the bitrate of odd movements?

This. The claim that they were seated close-by, made odd movements, and progressed at the same rate is very suspicion-inducing. If the test was multiple-choice it really wouldn't have been hard to have one sibling copy the other's answers. Having and resolving disagreements would have required much higher bandwidth, but just playing follow-the-leader would have required a bitrate of, what a few bits a minute?

Where I live at least, there's a great library infrastructure. Brand new, state-of-the-art libraries with great physical and digital collections are the norm. It's not unusual to find small maker spaces, recording studios, study rooms, and other community services.

On any given day of the week they're usually pretty frothy with people. It skews towards teens and below, but you'll see people from all walks of life in these places. They regularly hold talks, book events, community meetings, and so on.

I grew up loving libraries and a trip every so often to the big regional hub library was an all-day treat as a kid. It makes me feel so happy, and so satisfied with my tax dollars, to see these community institutions in action and doing wonderful things.

I learned recently that my closest library, a 1970s era structure that has become a bit decrepit, is about to be torn down (sad face) and replaced (ecstatic face) with an all new library and community performance arts center.

Curious question: I really only know about and understand libraries in the U.S., what are libraries and the library system like in other places?
I don’t think they are arbitrary from the perspective of a business. LTS JDK builds offer bug and security fixes for an increased amount of time compared to non-LTS versions.

Unless your business is keen on upgrading the JDK every 1.5 quarters it’s simply easier to rely on LTS versions.

The LTS support guarantees are even true for non-Oracle JDK builds. For example, Amazon Coretto also follows the LTS cycle.
That's a horrible out-of-context quote. The full quote:

"It may be well to reply to the very natural question: What would be the use of such extreme refinement in the science of measurement? Very briefly and in general terms the answer would be that in this direction the greater part of all future discovery must lie. The more important fundamental laws and facts of physical science have all been discovered, and these are now so firmly established that the possibility of their ever being supplanted in consequence of new discoveries is exceedingly remote. Nevertheless, it has been found that there are apparent exceptions to most of these laws, and this is particularly true when the observations are pushed to a limit, i.e., whenever the circumstances of experiment are such that extreme cases can be examined. Such examination almost surely leads, not to the overthrow of the law, but to the discovery of other facts and laws whose action produces the apparent exceptions.

As instances of such discoveries, which are in most cases due to the increasing order of accuracy made possible by improvements in measuring instruments, may be mentioned: first, the departure of actual gases from the simple laws of the so-called perfect gas, one of the practical results being the liquefaction of air and all known gases; second, the discovery of the velocity of light by astronomical means, depending on the accuracy of telescopes and of astronomical clocks; third, the determination of distances of stars and the orbits of double stars, which depend on measurements of the order of accuracy of one-tenth of a second—an angle which may be represented as that which a pin's head subtends at a distance of a mile. But perhaps the most striking of such instances are the discovery of a new planet by observations of the small irregularities noticed by Leverier in the motions of the planet Uranus, and the more recent brilliant discovery by Lord Rayleigh of a new element in the atmosphere through the minute but unexplained anomalies found in weighing a given volume of nitrogen. Many instances might be cited, but these will suffice to justify the statement that "our future discoveries must be looked for in the sixth place of decimals." It follows that every means which facilitates accuracy in measurement is a possible factor in a future discovery, and this will, I trust, be a sufficient excuse for bringing to your notice the various methods and results which form the subject matter of these lectures."

Light Waves and Their Uses. By Albert A. Michelson. Published by The University of Chicago Press, 1903, pp 23-25.

Michelson was arguing exactly the opposite of the position you imply. In context, "the possibility of their ever being supplanted in consequence of new discoveries is exceedingly remote" is referring to the fact that new physics (e.g. relativity) tends not to invalidate the older physics which approximate it (e.g. newtonian dynamics) in common situations.
If only you'd also included one earlier line from the same skit¹:

Only on Mac and windows since they require a Linux VM. On (Ubuntu 22.04 lts server for example) you can still just apt-get install docker.io, add your user to the docker group and call it a day.

If you just want to replace the desktop management portion you can look into https://podman-desktop.io/
Or even https://multipass.run/

Both will get you to a docker host from the desktop.

Apple is a key member of PRISM [1] and got on board just about the time their phone business started to skyrocket. Just because the media stopped talking about PRISM doesn't mean it went away. If anything I'd expect it's only grown more emboldened given the relatively tepid public response to it. I'd argue this is likely the real reason that Huawei was banned. The US 3-letter agencies agencies had the choice of bringing a Chinese company into the surveillance state web, having a phone on the market they have no control over, or simply banning those phones.

As for incentive, big tech regularly flaunts nearly every single behavior that all of our anti-competitive clauses were meant to prohibit. 'Back in the day' Microsoft was targeted, and lost, an anticompete lawsuit for bundling Internet Explorer with Windows. Now a days bundling everything in your own packages, locking down other companies into a an unescapable market where you impose a 30% tribute, buying out competitors to prevent competition, and more - that's all perfectly cool, somehow.

If Apple, Microsoft, Google, et al stopped playing ball - they'd be out of the game before nightfall.

The rule of thumb for what determined any given trait, from summaries of the relevant science in the early 2000s, was "genetics 50%, unique environment 40-50%, shared environment 0-10% [heavily weighted toward the 0% end of things]".

Of course that division of influence (1) varies by the particular trait; and (2) is itself dependent on environmental conditions; when the general background is extremely impoverished, shared environmental influences may matter in a way that they don't when the background is lush.

Steven Pinker writing in The Blank Slate pounded on the message that it is essentially impossible for parents to have any predictable non-genetic influence on their children, but that there was still plenty left to be determined after the genes had their say. He recommended greater acceptance of the concept of fate.

Most countries don't have the technical capability needed to manufacture advanced medicines and weapons; that's why they buy them from elsewhere. US allies buy US-made weapons because they're the most advanced (e.g., F-35), not because they're the cheapest, and also it helps integrate their capabilities with the US's in case there's a conflict.

As for if disallowing Christmas lights makes any sense in a power crisis, well it'd take more research than I have any interest in doing to answer that question, so I offer no opinion, beyond noting that a surprising number of Christmas lights are incandescence still, so the impact might be larger than you'd assume, and every little bit helps.

So the largest expansion of general availability compute (and associated addressing needs) occurs and it ignores ipv6.

Re: 50% ... Your ipv6 numbers are very likely mobile, are they not? And those all CGNAT to ipv4 land? So the entire ipv6 mobile space (the biggest victory of the ipv6 war) is basically behind the #1 thing that ipv6 hate more than anything: a NAT.

If you can't get ISPs to support it............

...............
...............

ISPs! The central access points to the internet for consumers! THE MAIN PEOPLE THAT YOU SHOULD HAVE CORRALLED. If you didn't get these people on IPv6 within a decade of the protocol, well I don't know what to say. I can't explain the massive degree of failure. Well, I don't have to, look at this thread. I just hear excuses. Blah blah ISPs Blah blah VMs blah blah kubernetes.

If the ISPs don't support ipv6, then the software applications CANNOT be upgraded. If it is 2022 and there are major failures in ipv6 support (and there are) in places like comcast and the like, then whose fault is that?

It is the fault of the ipv6 organizations, designers, ratifiers, etc.

To underline, in America we have MASSIVE monopolies on consumer ISP access, and have for decades. That means in order to wrangle these organizations, you, what, get 10 people in the room and the FCC and get it hammered out?

IPV6 isn't just a failure of protocol design. It is a massive failure of organization and outreach. The attitude, rife throughout all ipv6 conversations, is the protocol designers forced it on the internet and said "take it or leave it".

The issue is ipv4 has ALWAYS been easier for a programmer. ipv6 always makes for more headaches. This is a massive massive failure. IPV4 networking sucks! NAT! bridges! Gateways! Prozies! port forwarding! CGNAT! It's still all easier than ipv6. Think about that.

The issue here is that ipv6 has no hammer. It didn't have the FCC on board or some ultra-powerful group that could deliver the hammer.

This is like IE6 (what is it about the number 6? don't answer that), that required a grassroots rebellion in silicon valley to dislodge. Well, and Google Chrome.

The tired Zeihan position that has been the same song and dance since his days at stratfor and still as wrong now as it was decades ago. He's also predicted that China would collapse a dozen times now, with timelines attached, and every time that timeline passes and China still stands he just moves the goalposts. He got Ukraine right, but it wasn't exactly a bold prediction and it follows the same Nostradamus method of throwing a bunch of stuff at the wall and hoping some of it sticks.

The US has not been the majority player in policing pirates in a long time and piracy is at an all time low - China and Europe handle the majority of the piracy actions around Africa today, the largest source of modern piracy. Even if the US were to withdraw, and it's just Europe and Asia trading with each other, what navy is going to magic into existence to threaten those trade routes? The 5th fleet is in theory always around to back things up, but even if you look at CTF-151 the USA hasn't had the comm since 2009, and basically all of the anti-piracy actions today are small potatoes and easily handled by coalition members.

Yes, the US navy is the best in the world. Yes, without it, there is less ability to protect these trade routes. But if the people that are doing the remaining trade are the people with the next 20 biggest navies, where in the world is the threat going to come from?

If globalization ends it's not going to be because the US navy took their ball and went home, because you have to go really far down the list of naval might to find people who wouldn't want to still be trading with each other.
I tend to believe that most developers want to have control over their dev environment. Rarely have I seen two devs use the same setup. Everyone uses different IDEs, editors, additional tools, etc.

Actually, I would argue that a not too small percentage of developers would not take a job if the dev environment doesn't meet their needs. To get me to develop on a windows computer would take a lot of other perks to even consider it.

In my opinion, the trend towards online dev environments is catering the ML/data science community. A lot of data scientists do not have the same skill set developers have. Setting up all libraries and device drivers is tedious.

Think GPU + matching CUDA version + matching PyTorch version. Oh, for training you need to use an HPC which needs different versions.

It's the same for any form of aid. For example, an NGO source on the ground in Ukraine said that before US auditors showed up (6 months later), only 30% of the US hardware made it to the frontlines. [1]

That means tens of billions of dollars of aid, equipment and weapons was effectively stolen by corrupt officials. Where is it now? Probably in the hands of European crime gangs & cartels, who will use it to tear Europe up.

Similarly, the Red Cross (a supposedly trustworthy organization) pilfered 25% of aid bound for Haiti and squandered the rest building effectively zero infrastructure/housing. [2] [3]
