Thank you that's useful, ill sure be setting it. I just wish it was not necessary, certainly in Pro version.

My mother is an artist by education, but she didn't pursue a career in art, and opted for being an artisan and practicing art in her spare time. She's now retired and is only occasionally asked to do some part time work.

By her account now is the best time for actual creativity. There's no pressure to stand out and as a long time member of the artist association she can count on some space to show off her work should she wish so, but most of her paintings never see a larger audience because she now paints things that match her taste alone. It's kind of therapeutic really.

She also does sculpture because every painter eventually becomes a sculptor and every sculptor eventually becomes a painter.

People who went down the path of being a career artist are in a generally worse position now, because that's all they know and what they invested all their time in and unfortunately most of them didn't make much of a name for themselves.
> Take just one example, system tray.

AFAIK in X11 there was one http://standards.freedesktop.org/systemtray-spec/systemtray-... . Wayland however doesn't have an API for it yet.
> SpaceX suddenly going out of business (as in a Chapter 7 bankruptcy) seems rather unlikely. The same is true of ULA, Boeing, Lockheed Martin

SpaceX is not critical to national security, and it—many times—came close to bankruptcy in its adolescence of the early 2010s. Aerospace, in the past, saw massive recessions where companies larger than SpaceX went poof. This will almost certainly happen again, once we’re done tooling up for China.
Even if it's "bloated", I've found KDE to be a far more usable DE than Gnome. KDE provides you with more features than you need (or thought you might need), but everything's made discoverable, so you don't mind. Gnome relies on extensions to meet the bare minimum, and they break after each update. Once you add the extensions, I think Gnome ends up more bloated than KDE. Don't know about Xfce and the other stuff.

It's not an apples to apples comparison.
Purely anecdotal - i3 + picom idles around 350MB while tiling wayland compositors (sway/hyprland) idle closer to 500MB
But not everything uses that. Some software simply connects a pin of the port to a motor and another to a sensor, then uses software in the computer to turn the motor off as soon as it sees the sensor be activated.

Devices that do that often have very tight timing requirements - since original 1990's era computers could respond to a change in a pin change in as little as a few clock cycles.
> All the money which exists in the system was created out of nothing

People keep saying this. But hasn't it almost always been true, almost everywhere? Apart from some rare exceptions, such as people using livestock as money.
Maybe posted at a wrong time? Or is it because there was so much fusion articles lately, that only few users read this one?

Just turn the brightness down... that's the real 'dark' mode.
Doesn't Emacs depend on about 200 other packages?
Turns out, a few slides later, that ':=' doesn't have direction; it's merely a contraction of declaration, ':', and equality, '='. So 'x := 3' means the same as 'x:int; x=3'. Perhaps more surprisingly, so does, 'x=3; x:int'.
Changes are good!

Sometime, when I want a change of perspective, I switch to different theme for a couple of days/weeks/months and then change again, and again, and again...

I've noticed just changing the theme can help refocus.

It is a bit like changing the layout of your house to bring changes to your life.

(only it's so much easier with M-x customize-theme)

Because there's no such thing as a 'natural equilibrium' interest rate[1]. The base interest rate is an equilibrium, which regardless of monetary policy regime is influenced by something completely artificial (the quantity of base money in an economy) and lending activity. The Fed deciding to set the quantity of base money added to an economy 'no more ever' or 'x% per year' or 'in proportion to stocks of some shiny metal' or some other target leads to every bit as much of an artificial equilibrium interest rate, it's just that the vast majority of alternatives lead to more volatility and lower growth.

[1]OK, there's Wicksell defining "natural" interest rate as one which leads to commodity price stability, but a slight modification of Wicksell's definition of price stability (to avoid the threat of destabilising deflation) has actually been the Fed's primary objective over recent decades...
Manga is more culturally developed, but it's just that it makes less money
Interesting...

What if, instead of signing up for a service myself, I paid my neighbor's 11-year-old kid a few Christmas cookies to sign me up, while I washed my car? Neither I, nor any legal adult, was around when she was skipping past the legal junk, or clicking "I agree" when required.
>When I was in the military, a key tactic of camouflage was to never, under any circumstances, expose yourself on a hilltop or similar, where your silhouette could be easily identified. A dark blob on a light background is far easier for the human eye to see, than the reverse.

This is a strange argument for dark/light mode. It might be easier to see, but can you imagine how tired your eyes would get if you were looking for/at dark blobs on a hilltop all day? I wouldn't last an hour.

I'm fine with this guy preferring light mode. I've tried them both for many years each and I much prefer dark mode for my own well being.
What GNOME extensions do you need to provide 'the bare minimum'?

I use none and it's fine for me.

Even though I would like to casually watch a video on Binance but I am going to pass on that channel.

That channel is defined by red backgrounds, down arrows and fire. I firmly believe that one should be open to every opinion as long as they have a built a good framework aka BS detector. I feel like this video is not going to be a casual watch for me and I am definitely not invested in Binance that much to fact check everything presented on that video.
> They make it extremely hard to withdraw money, with errors, fake limits, unresponsive customer support.

What is the reason you say so? Meaning, is that your personal experience? What amount of money are we talking about, and why was the limit "fake"?
True so yet all of them have the same/similar background services/daemons/applications, so the comparison is still valid though it will be distro-specific.

I cannot physically test all the distros and their permutations, and then there are some user-defined ones such as Gentoo or LFS.
Sure, being able to consult an expert on some topic is definitely more useful (and less likely to be reasonable sounding gibberish, depending on the field), but that's not always possible.

I've been somewhat skeptical of AI in the past, but I've been blown away by how useful chatGPT has been. I used it to learn a bunch about laser transceivers for fiber optics the other night. I didn't really believe everything it said, so I had to Google on the side, but I was lost trying to find answers on my own.
Well to be brutally honest the West is just not that interested in the complicated history and ethnicity of that part of the world and just likes to simplify things.

Anything East of Berlin is "Eastern Europe" for instance.
Can someone please explain to me how can a company by stake in a stock exchange?

Not really; Fedora 37 with GNOME 43 inside a VM with 4 GB/no swap uses 1.9 GB RAM for a fully running desktop.
KDE is definitely not bloated in any way for the amount of features and capabilities it brings out of the box. Everything you need to get to work is already built in, no extra add-ons or extensions are needed, even for power users.

My Opensuse Tumbleweed KDE idles at ~700MB RAM usage so I have no idea what the author's Fedora does with KDE that it idles at 1.4GB RAM.

I mean, I definitely expect differences between distros, but 2x the RAM usage feels really strange. There's either a bug/memory leak, or several apps are cached or running in the background.

I feel for such comparisons, it would be also fair to list the "ps -aux" for each DE somewhere so that readers can dig a bit deeper into the results if they want and see what exaclty is running

I'd rather say: the EU is penalizing a very few people who usually pay €10k cash.

LMAO.

Yeah, an average HTML page nowadays without graphics and built-in fonts is easily above 500KB considering all the embedded JS and CSS.
What are transactions in this context? Message passing?
Those are some very poor comparisons. Maybe if someone is claiming that dark mode or light mode have long-term effects on your health, but what people are actually claiming is just that they find one or the other more comfortable. There’s no meaningful scientific “truth” to that beyond a person’s own stated preference, just like there’s no scientifically most comfortable pair of pants or best color of wall paint. For what it’s worth, my preference of pants is definitely biased and based on anecdotal evidence. I have a pair of legs to test it with myself.

Pointing out someone's conclusions are incorrect is useless unless you also point out why they're incorrect. Everyone has an opinion, it's the reasoning that matters.

In some fields, like mathematics, pointing out "this result is incorrect" can be useful in itself, but that's because of the deeply technical nature of mathematics itself - mechanical verification of correctness is feasible.

In ordinary conversation, things aren't that black-and-white, and pointing out that something is wrong doesn't in itself provide valuable input for self-reflection. Providing some more information why is always more helpful than just saying "you're wrong, figure it out".
It always been like that for every company in every field.

The only new factor is the amount of “free” money on the market. In the past it was minimal ( more or less ), now it’s maximal after a decade of zero interest rates and trillions of paper printed.

This exacerbated some aspects of the market but the fundamentals remain the same.
ChatGPT can also change its style, e.g. "Make the following text more interesting".

If we go down this route no comparison will ever be "valid".

That's why this is strictly for Fedora 37 as of December 11th, 2022. :-)

If you have your own distro resuts to share, I will happily add them to the article.
It's definitely both. The episodic nature has some elements that go towards the first, since sometimes you need to "buy" the episodes, cliffhangers are encouraged, just like they are inside a modern fiction novel to keep the reader "hooked".

And the publication schedule is nothing new, episodic novels, comics, etc. have existed for a very long time. The time it takes to produce episodes, like comics chapters, is not to be underestimated, so there's also an economic pressure.
> never gambled their depositors money, then they are/will be fine

You’re ignoring liability. Even if they never levered, they’re vulnerable to a regulatory crackdown. Tether and Binance are predictable numpties-will-lose-money cases.
Rain fade affects GPS does it not? Is the car relying on inertial navigation for a period? This rain is not something a camera and iffy GPS signal can keep you on the road. The intensity and amount of rain would definitely not let a camera see.

Quick add: this was at 12PM (noon) on a countryish road. City lights had nothing to do here.
I think it's because capitalism is decentralised as much as possible, and decisions are made - and rewards given - as close to the people taking the risks/doing the work as possible, and so it's hard to make the case that "letting people get on with it" is to blame. Although there will be some emergent negative effects, there will also be vast emergent positive effects.

Whereas deaths due to Marxist ideology or socialist top-down policies are actually undeniably due to them, and they seem to happen pretty much everywhere it's tried.
I disagree. While I subscribe to the Greater Internet Fuckwad Theory, I do not believe the vast majority of people are awful. The current format of the internet fosters an unnatural way of behaving, but sit at a table with most people and they are able to disagree, or even get around to another viewpoint, pretty easily.

Sadly, I do think this view of mine of the Internet will die soon, as only the people that grew halfway during the Internet age are able to know: older people lack the finesse and the capacity to empathise with someone through text, younger people lack the knowledge that real life humans are capable of being decent, as most of their socialising is done through a screen now.
This makes only sense when it comes with named parameters which can be provided in any order, not the half-assed default-parameter implementation from C++.
Interesting, MATE should be under 400MB or less if you do not enable optional HUD or tray resident applications. Even in 64bit, it ran just fine on a pi2b with 512MB ram, and was about 340MB at boot-up with marco (no colord, HUD terminal, or evolution mail etc.).

The issue arises in how linux reuses ram pages for shared objects. While you may have many processes... the actual incremental program size can be very small. One of the many reasons oversized kernel ram cache/buffer sizes can help with performance (often as high as 40% on small flash memory io-constrained devices).

A heavily customized MATE on Ubuntu LTS OS is part of the standard developer platform I recommend. This takes a bit of effort, but there are benefits to having everyone on the exact same hardware, OS, and compiler version. i.e. cloning/repairing a workstation snapshot takes 30 minutes.
Low interest rates are not sustainable as they will lead to entrenched run away inflation. Goverments will need to grow the fuck up and behave like responsible adults and not like spending addicted junkies.

One serious economic theory states there is a 'business cycle' [1], where the economy varies between doing well and doing badly every, say, 5-10 years. Keynesian economists [2] think the government should dampen these cycles by saving up a war chest when the economy is doing well, and spending when the economy is doing badly.

After all, if there's a Great Depression and you build the Hoover Dam, you get a big discount on the construction because nobody else is building - and you get 10,000 jobs for people who would otherwise be idle.

So the idea of targeting a given amount of growth, pressing the throttle on the economy when below that and the brakes when above it, is a well established notion.

Of course, these days in practice election cycles don't match business cycles, and there ain't no way Party A is building up a war-chest so Party B can deliver tax cuts, or vice-versa. And if a sector of the economy - like house prices - is overheating, the government is as likely to cut taxes to help out buyers, as it is to raise taxes to reduce price growth and build up a war chest.

North Korean new tactic: tricking foreign experts into writing research for them
Great topic and great podcast.
In my stint in factory automation, the night mode vs day mode acceptance dependent heavily on the light properties inside the factory. With flooding daylight, the only thing acceptable was light mode, with artificial light - controlled light, usually used to decouple the workers from theire feeling of time or in nightshifts, the dark mode was prefered.

So my theory is, dark mode is prefered, were irregular times or crunch is prefered. Lightmode is in open, daylit offices or home offices, were you value & keep track of your time and life.

More importantly, laser efficiency is around 1%. At "scientific breakeven" you create more energy than the laser delivers. To make it a viable energy source you need to produce at least 100x more energy from a single pulse than scientific breakeven.
I have an older Ivy-bridge laptop from 2012 (Thinkpad T430s, 16 GB RAM, SSD) and it does indeed shutter occasionally in animations - I assume it tries to upload some asset for the GPU and it misses the presentation time. The overall performance is actually pretty nice for such old hardware.
They haven't thought this through.

If the US wants to sanction country A, and country A uses a blockchain to circumvent sanctions, what do you think will happen next? The US goes: "ah, blockchain, foiled again!!!"?

Is any blockchain really resistant to country level attackers? I highly doubt that, especially against the US.
You (or maybe Chamath Palihapitiya) are making a very very wrong assumption that a working fusion power plant would produce free energy.

Nothing could be further from the truth: with any half-way plausible design today, fusion power will be the most expensive form of power generation known to man. While some of the fuel is nearly free (deuterium and to some extent even the tritium), it's more realistic to think of the reactor itself as the fuel - since the reactor will be under constant very high energy neutron bombardment, it won't last for more than a few years, maybe a decade at best.

And since a fusion energy reactor will be one of the most highly advanced engineering accomplishments in human history (it requires extraordinary structural resistance to hold up the necessary equipment in the presence of the gigantic magnetic fields, extraordinarily advanced magnets, a blanket of liquid lithium and boron that gets pumped continuously and somehow recycled etc.), having to rebuild one every 10 years will be extraordinarily expensive (and we should expect something closer to 2-5 years for the initial designs, even assuming no explosions).

In contrast, a fission reactor is already extremely expensive, but has similar output to any contemplated fusion plant, has been proven to be able to be continuously operated for >50 years once built, and requires only slightly more expensive fuel (uranium is really not that expensive compared to its energy density - certainly nowhere near as expensive as gas or coal).

Edit: oh, and this seems to be related to a breakthrough at the NIH, presumably on their inertial-confinement fusion experiment, which (despite some rosy rhetoric) is a weapons research program, with no realistic possibility of ever being transformed into a fusion power plant.
Solarized Light was my gateway drug to light mode, and I later switched over to using Modus Operandi in Emacs, which really made me appreciate proper light themes. If you use Emacs and/or Konsole you may like it.
Such odd arguments, it's very simple to me. The problem is really that we like to work late, with bad lighting.

All this would be resolved if we had proper lighting, as is mandated in every Swedish office in fact.

But I like working late from home, so I have very poor lighting a lot of times. Therefore bright applications and websites hurt my eyes more than darker ones.
Think of it as England and Ireland. The Wikipedia category [0] is massive, but there's a difference between how the Irish and the English view their two nations. A modal Englishman could say, "the English, the Welsh, the Scottish and the Irish built the British Empire together, we should all be proud of what we did", but a modal Irishman would reply, "no, thanks, we didn't need your empire and we don't need your patronizing fraternization". The fact that both of them have a grandparent from Derry and a grandparent from Norfolk wouldn't matter at all.

Ukraine is currently undergoing the same kind of national divorce. Ukrainian roots don't matter, what matters is that one supports the idea of Ukraine being a distinct nation with its own way.
