This is their mainline channel delivered over a Personal Package Archives (ppa) channel (a repo that's just slightly simple to add/enable on Ubuntu); there are no patches on top of those.
Same. They don't bother me in every day life at all. Stick me in front of a white screen though and they become incredibly distracting,
I joined Twitter some years ago with the only interest of growing my network of functional programmers. I specifically only followed people who do Haskell, Scala, or some kind of abstract algebra. I eventually quit because I don't subscribe to platforms that promote cancel culture. I did try Mastodon, but didn't discover as many interesting people before I lost interest.
Interesting point that I hadn't considered. I just automatically assume that when fusion gets invented, it will be shared with the whole world so we can all partake in da utopia... but maybe it will be hoarded instead :(
Upvoting is more effort than scrolling. I downvote bad or trollish takes, I upvote stuff I strongly agree with or generally great, effortful comments (sometimes even when I disagree! But sadly I'm not humble enough to do that often). I read the vast majority without upvoting.

Looks like some source issues and editor drama from the talk page[1] and the edit that removed Mario[2].

The editor drama is apparently a user who made many thousands of edits over the last 17(!) years, using multiple accounts, and misrepresented sources[3][4][5].

I think a lot of HN adjacent engineers are going to have a rude shock over the next few years as there are several pressures working against them. The first is that companies that have been trading debt for growth are not sustainable in a high interest rate environment. The second is that the shift to working from home has meant that employing remote teams, be they in other areas of the states or overseas has become much more normalized. Why would you pay Bay area salaries when you can employ just as qualified people elsewhere for less?
> Sure, we made cool things in tech during this era, but was it worthwhile on a global scale, on a social level, in an economic sense? That is debatable.

Globally, I do think that it's getting more and more difficult each year for organizations and countries to hide immoral behavior. For example, the Chernobyl disaster of 1986 was kept secret from the West for a few days (maybe a few weeks) whereas I nowadays would imagine a Western satellite on top of it within a few hours to days. Similarly, the situation with the Uyghurs is well known and other countries do take that into account when interacting with China. With an optimistic hat on, I would say that at least knowing about immoral/inhuman actions is better than not even knowing about them. And then I come back to the SSD and chips. They help in gathering and sharing information.
"Fedora" is mentioned prominently in the comparison. Not sure if I could do more :-)

Could you show the top output for your distros? I wonder why there's such a huge discrepancy.
You're ignoring political incentive such as the anti-Israel drives. They will certainly flood discussions with by-the-way offhand mentions of "Israeli brutality" in otherwise seemingly innocuous comments on other subjects. There was a spate of this last year, then it subsided, and I would not be surprised to see another wave come, this time automated.
I think his defense is sort of:

1. We had a busted accounting system

2. Early on in FTX people had to route dollars via Alameda because banking is hard

3. We accidentally credited those dollars both to Ftx and Alameda

4. Each side thought they had billions to spend / lose (their VC and related spend was WILD), and suddenly, oops!!!!!!

I suspect there's a grain of truth to this, in that steps 1-4 did actually happen to some degree and influenced expenditures/risk taking that the firm couldn't back. Given what's known (for some definition), the upper crew knew about the problem well before the bank run, and knowingly transferred funds from FTX to Alameda. This sort of 'best case' scenario still implies an absurd commingling of exchange and user funds.

It doesn't strike me as plausible that nobody ever questioned the extra billions , and it definitely isn't believable that when Alameda got margin called, they just casually 'sent' some of the double counted billions without taking some time to think "hey, so about these billions".

Also, this doesn't square with Sam constantly claiming that he misjudged whether FTT was good backing - if they didn't commingle/steal customer funds, he wouldn't have cared about FTT collateral!
Tests usually cannot prove absence of defects. But they can show presence of defects. So yes, a test suite that runs without errors tells you “nothing” in a way. But it's a very good safeguard to ensure that code changes don't inadvertently introduce unexpected changes.

For me it's also the case that I think much more thorough about what inputs could be possible and potentially problematic, so there's often an extra set of test cases around boundaries of input values that would have never been tried when just quickly throwing together a demo application to showcase and experiment with a new feature.

But the fundamental problem that lots of bugs don't appear in testing since those code paths are never tested also means that testing alone isn't sufficient. But I guess we all know that by now, and combining different kinds of tests with other approaches like code reviews (actual proofs are probably beyond the scope for the vast majority of software projects) is being done all the time to not bet everything on a misguided 100 % code coverage unit test approach that's both expensive and fairly useless.
I think that's a very common issue, not just with upvote based comment sections but reviews in general; people write reviews when they have something to complain about, which means that a lot of reviews are just bad. But at some point, app manufacturers and webshops started to prompt people to please leave a review if they like the app as well.
I would be fine with high memory usage if it was almost all shared memory, but what really annoys me is that it isn't. Also the lack of cross platform UI toolkits(not just Windows-Linux cross platform, but really such that they integrate with KDE, gnome, xfce, and anything else as well as Windows). Take just one example, system tray. There is no common interface for it. Same with many other things. Don't get me wrong, Linux in the desktop today is usable, but it leaves a lot be desired.
If you went around looking for patent and copyright violations on thingiverse you'd probably need to remove most of what they've got.

Interesting, did this change recently? I remember cashing out almost 6 figures EUR around the peak last year without any problem. Since then I stayed away from the crypto market.
HN already has a “reply” link below the comment. Adding “upvote” would solve both the timing (noticing upvote after reading the comment) and usability (solves touch target size on mobile).
I have a similar memory circa 2000 using all the exact same hardware. I remember getting online on the train, while precariously balancing the phone and Revo on my knee so that the IR link would stay aligned. Symbian OS did not have any IRC client at the time and I wanted to give a shoutout to my friends, so I had to connect to the IRC server with a regular telnet client, issuing IRC protocol commands manually to join a channel and write a message along the line of "Hey guys, you will never guess where I am". Good times.

I still have my Revo in a drawer though. As of five years ago, it was still able to power on. I found the form factor of this device to be great. It was light, energy efficient, actually pocketable and could actually be used for serious productivity in a way that modern phones cannot: I was touch typing all my courses on it with no issues. It sad how Psion / Symbian failed to thrive in the early 2000s.
Just because the market is irrational, doesn't mean you have to be.

To bastardise buffet. I'd much rather everyone else gorge themselves on hotdogs so I can have my favourite burger restaurant to myself. When they come to their senses I will have to pay more for my burgers, if I can even get a seat in the restaurant.

'gainz' are only 'gainz' when you come to sell, and I have more confidence that something that I bought at current inherent value will maintain that value when I want to sell, compared to something with no inherent value.
I had both the 32bit sparc and UltraSparc machines running Solaris, 21064 Alpha running Linux, 21264 Alpha running Tru64, and also use of pa-risc boxes with HPUX, MIPS running IRIX, and Power running AIX. All of it was second hand old stuff by the time I got it, of course. Fun times.
> I’ll never understand the logic behind “high memory usage” as a metric for desktop environments.

It's also far less trivial than looking at top output: at minimum you'd want error bars; i.e. repeat the measurement a few times.

At Phoronix KDEs project to reduce memory occupancy has been shown to pay off: in their numbers KDE competes not with Gnome, but with XFCE. If this benchmarks shows a totally different result, at least one of them have a problem.
Generally no. Its about the length of walking that I do to get to work one way. But its a far enough distance to be an inconvenience. I rarely ever print something, but when I do its because there is no other option for me. That usually means its something chore related and adding a 4km round trip walk just to print out a singular page is a pain.
Thanks for sharing that poll.

25% --> 45% since March. I'd be interested in seeing how those numbers fit into the context of longer term sentiment (eg. over the course of several years). I wonder how much it fluctuates year to year and what degree the emotion reflected in those surveys is influenced by prices at any given time (eg. inclination to be more upbeat when prices are going up).
xfce isnt just a window manager.

Even if fusion heat is free, it still costs significant amounts of money to convert heat into electricity. Most of the cost of a coal plant is converting heat into electricity, and the last coal plant built in the US cost $600M to build.

Energy costs might drop an order of magnitude, which is significant, but isn't going to cause any sort of systemic change.

LOL, no. Asking ChatGPT is no different than just googling the question, except the answer is more nicely formatted. ChatGPT has no actual intelligence in it.
This depends highly on the program you are doing. Often, STEM grad students will get paid a stipend but 50k sounds pretty high for a Bio major, and it could include having to do a lot of teaching. I’d guess CS PhDs and especially industry-friendly fields do okay. But other fields don’t make anywhere near that much, if their phd is even paid at all.
This has probably been said many times before - but it also seems like a new era for digital surveillance or espionage: bots could "befriend" humans, create full networks of fake people crafting any story imaginable in order to extract information. Maybe
It's annoying that extensions like Blur My Shell can't fix the critical issues with the blurring because they're written in high-level JavaScript and can only use the bindings that GTK gives them.

So I'll have to deal without application blur, but at least the fact that I can blur some things (like the overview) is really nice.

Under authoritarianism people stop seeing things. "Percepticide" is
what Diana Taylor calls it [1] and what Elisabeth Noelle-Neumann
refers to as the "Spiral of Silence" [2]. Dreams contain unprocessed
experience and suppression pushes that down into the unconscious where
it is processed and expressed in a creative and safe way. Such
sublime, symbolic expressions are extremely powerful weapons against
the suppressing force, and this is why (real not imitative) art,
writing and Psychoanalysis is feared by all mechanical and
authoritarian regimes.

I'm not saying cleaning up separately isn't warranted.

But it isn't always legacy that needs cleaning up.

It can also be mess created very recently by active team members.

So on the one hand, a separate PR for the cleaning up is warranted, but since it isn't being matched with a separate PR for introducing the mess, the double standard is magnified by introducing more book-keeping for those who clean up after others.

For that reason, when working with messy people who are not held accountable, I usually clean up in separate commits in a PR. This way, when looking at the blame for the logical changes that I introduced, and when reviewing, this is separate from the cleanup.
It's not so clear cut. Your kwin process uses the KDE libraries and facilities, some of which are used by Dolphin as well. It's a mesh of interconnected and communicating processes via IPC, unix sockets or shared libraries, not standalone islands. Firefox might show a native printing dialog that's exposed in some core code loaded when you logged in.

In fact the line between DE and WM on a bigger desktop gets blurrier, especially in the Wayland era when your WM is actually also your compositor, so handles all your windows and their positioning, input dispatch, permissions, etc.

The top level comment is talking about Germany, which is not a common law jurisdiction.
Why not try to measure snappiness directly? There's tons of research about this in UX land, which is not my field but I'm aware of it, defining precisely which kind of interactions at what latencies feel instantaneous and so an and so forth.

There is a lot of focus on measuring the system in linux land (cpu, memory, io, etc) from the perspective of a user (and by users), but its actually often the least informative. Developers and operators often benefit more from this level of measurement.

I suspect this is because its much easier to measure system utilization in a standardized way. Maybe this is a nice project to develop user friendly and standardized application level benchmarking for linux desktop (these are more readily available in web development).
Idk, Noctua's clearly making bank off premium ultra quiet fans. At least from me.
Eastern Germany was very big in industrial espionage and they shared everything with their big brother.

Ofcourse just having access to the latest chip designs doesn't mean you can mass produce them so it never amounted to anything even remotely challenging Western technological hegemony.
Second the Bitwig, with a caveat: Read the Manual or Suffer. There are a alot of absolutely non-obvious UI rakes you can step on, can be really off-putting if messing around blindly (from the top of my head: if you accidenly turn on clip player for a track, it will not play the timeline; not disabling polyphony will prevent your Note Grid from running continuously; microtonal notes are being sent to MIDI differently depending on the MPE settings ...)

Bitwig + Pianoteq is the ultimate toy to tinker and relax with.

>Coinbase also originates from wallstreet, hence why Binance is way more popular (Binance has 10x more daily volume!!! [3]), despite Coinbase having more PR presence

Binance is more popular because Coinbase's fees are almost an order of magnitude higher..
Not really. Shipping companies rarely ever have their own locations and are usually located in some form of kiosk. I don't think there is an equivalent to Stapels in Germany. Another commenter mentioned that DM and Rossmann (CVS, Rite Aid kinda store) offer printing, but that's not at all locations.
It's a bit a unfair comparison because you have include the ZFS-Arc AND Inact ("buffer" in the other test). Also tested under virtualbox = less drivers, buffer flushed, pipewire linux, pulse-audio freebsd? and so on...it's hard to compare those two test in this way.
Marvellous, but why raspberry pi? I suppose this project was started before 2021. Today there is little sense to be using them for anything new (unless you're doing it just for yourself and you already have few lying around). Basic functionality such as gpio, networking etc is well documented on rockchip based alternatives (made by pine, radxa, orange etc) I haven't played with allwinner boards, but I hear they are similar. The only thing I woukd choose rpi for today is perhaps for its hdmi/composite video out and camera interface(that too can be had on alternative boards today).
But Statically isn't forwarding the User-Agent of the visitor, and they publish the list of User-Agents that they use, which you can block.

Sure but the claim was that TikTok is practically immune because they're a Chinese company and thus don't care what the EU thinks. My point was that they do business in the EU via their EU subsidiary in Ireland and that one is very much subject to EU laws.

Additionally the alternative to having a subsidiary in Ireland with a "special relationship" with the Irish DPA (look up "GDPR one-stop shop") they'd be subject to every single DPA in the EU at the same time, not just the Irish one, which would also mean every DPA could fine them independently. This is why people familiar with this arrangement paid particular attention to the restructuring at Twitter Ireland (and especially its involvement in reviewing feature proposals for compliance) which seems to have killed its GDPR OSS role.
Sorry, that shot right past me. The article sounded, to me anyway, impressed the interface didn't exist. Seeing the cast/check against the anonymous interface left me unimpressed haha.

> It is not uncommon practice in Go to make "copies" of interfaces to avoid extra dependency (or cyclic dependency).

I hadn't really noticed but my exposure to the source is spotty. See what they are doing there and can imagine why, it just irks me.

There are now implicit, "standard" shapes for Error that don't have named, exported interfaces and presumably anyone wanting to write code around both Unwrap shapes will need to reach for the same techniques to suss out what they are dealing with..
Fluxbox is just about the snappiest window manager there is. On Arch, I actually used its precursor, blackbox.

It has better DPI scaling than most window managers today, and had zero functionality for notifications, volume keys, Super buttons, right clicking on the desktop, etc. it didn't even have alt+tab. Didn't even include a compositor for transparent windows.

I got to add all those myself and was happy with it for a while. Dunst (the notification daemon I used) allows you to change the content of a notification while it is showing, so I used that for displaying the current volume when I used the volume keys.

But after trying Fedora Silverblue I'm basically in love with GNOME Wayland now.
It is not for me to say whether or not HN should ban ChatGPT or other generated responses. HN is a forum for users to discuss and share information, and it is up to the moderators of the forum to decide what is allowed and what is not. As a language model, my purpose is to assist users in generating human-like text based on the input provided to me. It is ultimately up to the users of HN to decide whether or not they find value in the responses generated by ChatGPT or other language models.
But there are no bools in Verse so seems the keyword isn't taken and could have just been syntactic sugar for 0 from what I can tell?
> Honestly, a single 50W led is more than enough for an office sized room.

You're talking about something very different than the original poster then. They mentioned something more in the 400 watt range. I have around 70 watts of LEDs (split between 7 bulbs) in my small office (7 square meters), and am considering boosting that significantly.

50 watts I would put in the range of "normal bright lighting" (it's approximately the equivalent of one halogen floor lamp). 400 watts gets into "trying to simulate sunlight for therapeutic reasons"-territory.
Thanks for pointing out it's only 3%. It's much less than I had pictured! (I also went to look it up after your comment).

Let's imagine 3% of improved efficiency (they announce between 9 and 15%, but let's be conservative) on the 3% of the world's emission, that's still almost 0.1% of the world's emission saved by only changing the propellers on cargo ships. It's still a massive improvement: 31 million tons of CO2 saved. At this scale, anything that moves the needle a little bit should be taken. But that's by plucking a number out of thin air, so I'd love to hear about it in the real world and at scale.

Regarding the rest of your message, I agree that the type of fuel that is burned is a big problem, but if changing a propeller means burning x% less of it, it's a no brainer to me!
There is definitely secure software written in C/C++ though. See qmail http://cr.yp.to/qmail/guarantee.html.
Parent comment is mostly true to russian people.

They assume if the other people know russian language and understand their culture it means everything else is the same. But lots of nations in that region in addition to understanding russian language and culture have their own.

A and that is why it can never be said that we are the same people.

At a minimum such statements and observations come as the result of ignorance - there are not many russian people that I know that would come and visit Ukrainian museums or ask for a tour or ask a question about Ukrainian history.

If you have settled world view and don’t try to learn of course you will not see counterexamples of what you believe in IRL and you would just write decades old cliches like “we are the same people”

I assume fish processing includes fish farms, those are quite dirty...it's not just the stink.
I disagree with you. Ukranian and Russians are not the same people. It is this type of thinking that Ukranian people are same is what got us in today's soup. And it's a shame of not one person's ambition but of Russian ideology in general and years of acceptance of it. Putin is a reflection of the society not the other way round. So, stop deflecting blame and accept responsibility.
> Western comics are mostly just idea factories for films now

I'm not denying this, but I find it a hypocritical view when you then compare it with mangas. 99% of manga is produced as an attempt to generate a franchise that will spawn anime series, anime movie(s), real-life movie(s), collectibles, and boatload of related merchandise. If US comics did the same, you'd be looking at 100x the audiovideo production they currently generate.

The view you expose is a typical Western position.
> They are most likely not solvent

On what basis do you make this statement?
