The nice thing about win11 is that you can run all your decade old software on it.

And that's my baseline for an OS: can it run programs. And thanks to the absolute ubiquitous of Windows for the last 30 years everything was made with Windows in mind.
Politics isn't necessarily some dirty thought-terminating cliche. It did used to have an actual meaning:

>the activities associated with the governance of a country or other area, especially the debate or conflict among individuals or parties having or hoping to achieve power.

As long as you work with people, you will have to engage in some politics. But I guess another definition has become the more popular lately:

>activities within an organization that are aimed at improving someone's status or position and are typically considered to be devious or divisive.
It doesn't really make any difference to my original point what the cause of delays were. This is not an academic question over which approach is theoretically better. Consenting is just another real world problem that has to be resolved.
How could Linus have rejected a systemd feature, even one he didn't like?

Linus runs the kernel. systemd is not the kernel. They're completely different projects.

Yes, systemd runs on Linux (exclusively so) but Linus doesn't magically get veto power over separate Linux-only projects just because they run on Linux.

Heck, even if Linux weren't Free Software, and was proprietary like the Windows kernel, he still wouldn't be able to tell other people what they could and could not build on top of Linux, just like Microsoft can't tell people what to put in their Windows apps. The fact that Linux is Free Software makes the idea even weirder.

The whole point of wework from a customer perspective is that you don’t have to commit to long 10-year leases. So wework leases long-term and the customers short-term. If the customers dry up wework still needs to pay their commitments.
What I found interesting about the construction is that they used dimensions like lines of code in a program, each trying to accomplish one small task.

> By the way, if you think that Snapchat isn't full of 'men explicitly looking for hookups', I have news for you...

There are lots of blokes who like porn on Twitter and on Pornhub but to say that they're the same because of that would be an enormous stretch.

> An age-appropriate version of Grindr, which is what Roth was suggesting,

No, Roth suggested that Grindr allow minors and be made age appropriate, without giving any details of how that would work. Those two things, like Twitter and Pornhub, are not the same thing.

> If you’re correct that Snapchat etc. can be used to search for nearby queer people in the same way as Grindr,

Again, not the same. You can find what you want via search but apps like Grindr and Tinder are optimised for meeting people nearby for hookups and dating.

> that only goes to undermine your argument that teens will somehow be safer on one than the other

What is the likelihood of finding an adult gay man looking for a hookup on Twitter vs Grindr? If you're on Grindr, can others find you too, and is that easier than on Twitter?
"Whats the point in ${enormous amount of work others did for me for free} ..." is never a polite move. Neither is your second sentence.

You two are just rude. No amount of freedom forces other people to bear with that. And if you think its not rude, still, the world is large enough to avoid each other.
I'm not sure there is much of substance to evaluate. If we fired every technical lead who sometimes "waded into areas with no experience," issued orders, followed a conviction or two and occasionally provided disparaging feedback, there would be no good engineers left. The bullying and devaluing claims are worth investigation, but that's always very subjective and range from "my boss disagrees with me" to horrific abuse.

Yes, that is incorrect. If you write `partial def foo : Nat := foo + 1` it will be accepted, but `def foo : Nat := foo + 1` is not. So while lean checks that functions terminate by default, it is possible to define and run programs containing general recursion. This is subject to some restrictions though:

* You can't unfold the definition to try to prove `foo = foo + 1` (which is of course false for any natural number), it is an "opaque" definition and its value for specification purposes is essentially arbitrary and does not need to match the definition.

* Even then there is a possibility of proving false things as in `partial def loop : False := loop`, so to prevent inconsistency the target type (`Nat` in the previous example, `False` in this one) must be inhabited (proved automatically by the typeclass machinery). So it would reject the `loop` example but not `foo`.
Sure, ,,let's think of the children''.

We heared it many times, but we're talking about a govermental agency meddling with election results. Politics and these cases are very different in nature. Personally I wouldn't be comfortable not taking action when the FBI would ask anything from me, because it's safer to just comply.
Nice project! I've used Crosslink-NX and Cypress FX-3 on various MIPI camera projects as well. Did you notice that Radiant does not control the timing of the data from the mixel hardmacro to your FPGA logic? (click on one of the pins in the physical viewer to see this). I ended up adding a ring of flip-flops and physically locking them near the top edge of chip to get consistent timing.

Looking at code: why are you not using the byte aligner built into the hardmacro?
On why he stopped writing: "Political satire became obsolete when Henry Kissinger was awarded the Nobel peace prize."

In the intro to "So long mom": "You know, every great war produces its great hit songs. And, after each war, we like to gather around the piano or the guitar, and play these songs. We enjoy the songs because they remind us of how much we enjoyed the war. Now, World War III is almost upon us, as you know – by popular demand, it seems. And, it occurred to me that if any songs are going to come out of World War III we’d better start writing them now. So, I have one here."

Indeed. I couldn't believe Facebook bet so much on VR, and especially a low-quality 3D MMORPG full of micropayments. With no LEGS. How long have video game characters had legs??

> It’s worth mentioning here that antipsychotics have come a long way since lithium.

It's not really related to your comment which is interesting and useful to hear in of its self.

But Lithium is not a antipsychotic it's a mood stabiliser and remains to this day a good one. It remains to this day the best evidenced for suicide reduction and intractable depression.

Mood stabilizers haven't progressed much (valproate a favoured one is now out for fertile women due to risk of ASD and birth defects).

Antipsychotics have shown astounding progress as you say, the reintroduction of clozapine in the 90, introduction of second generations, then Aripiprazole(as a partial D2 agonist was a warning shot we didn't know as much as we thought), quetiapine (made us reassess what a second generation even means as it has even less D2 affinity), pimavanserin (! No D2 but some 5HT-2a activity) And future like SEP-856(!! What the fuck is TAAR1?!).

Represent astounding progress. Should SEP-856 get a market authorization it'll turn decades of the dopamine hypothesis fully on its head.

I think that the ball is on everyone still sticking on it - It was clear that Windows XP was supposed to be supported only for 10 years and they relent it and extend it to be 14 years. At that point it's clear that the companies who can't move, especially big ones, are the ones who are reckless.
> What exactly have we learned that’s valuable from this news?

A lot. It depends on your personal preferences.

If you, as me, are interested in building aquariums and, as me, has watched with disbelief a couple of thick glass panes becoming arches by just 50cm of water, the system built and the planning put on it should be awesome enough. This tank worked for 20 years than is more than most hardware.

If you (as many people here) are interested in space and Mars colonization, you need seriously consider learning the art of keeping fishes in huge tanks. Aquaculture skills will be vital to keep a colony out of the earth.

To start, is one of the better methods known to produce quality food fast to keep your people feed. Some fishes are particularly well suited for space travel, and can even travel safely dehydrated in a paper envelope.

Even more important, tanks with aquatic organisms will be basic to recycle the residues in your small city. Water will be precious stuff and higher tanks allow a much better evaporation control.

You don't want one million litters flood happening in your spatial base so there is a big lesson here for us to learn
I've never played Overwatch, it was just an example, but my point stands regardless of whether players want changes or not; I simply want there to be some accountability for mega corps so they can't just abandon games, release the new iteration for $60, and then kill the old version off.

Or rather, so that when they eventually do, a potentially still popular game isn't rendered unplayable since there are no official servers and no software for me to use to host my own.

It's more aptly fit to use CoD as an example to be honest, I just used Overwatch because I'd read some were unhappy how they just killed it and replaced it with "sort of but not really the same game".

Since I'm not in the Overwatch scene, can you answer something I'd been wondering? Did they migrate cosmetics from 1 to 2? Cosmetics seems to be the big cash cow these days so if the new one has similar characters, but they kill the old one off and don't let me bring my hard earned or bought cosmetics then I'd be pretty pissed personally.
You could probably pick up those big old Cisco video conferencing cameras, which take 12V power, emit up to 1080p video over HDMI (which goes into whatever generic HDMI capture card you have) and are controlled over RS232 using Sony VISCA commands.

The cameras themselves aren't especially "hackable" but then they don't need to be, because everything going in and out is extremely well-documented.
Indeed, I added a couple of paragraphs in the end explaining the difference and the actual results. As a side note, I actually got slightly different numbers, but maybe that's because of the lower quality of data that I used.
In your opinion, what caused the development of that product to be hell? Bad/clueless management? Poor engineering hires?

If you want the boring answer: Money and clout.

The slightly less boring answer: some people don't necessarily have the audience's best interests at heart. Sometimes not even the company's best interests. To use a slightly less heinous example than some of the obviously malicious backstabbing: maybe you do know that Idea B is more efficient, but Idea A was yours, and it looks great on a resume to say that you achitected Idea A, that is being used in production (even if it made the company less money and the product worse off). You're gonna leave the company in 3 years anyway, so why care about some efficiency? Why even care if 6 years down the line someone else comes in and cleans up the code and ends up using Idea B in the end? You got your value out of it.

Slghtly less boring answer 2: people aren't perfect. And attach to the smallest fixations. So they fight not because the idea is bad but because their goal is to spite that particular person. You just need to be more discrete about it than back in grade school. This example was a person, but it can be extended to a group, a company, even an idealogy as a whole. Be it in zealous defense or in spite of, it has a similar effect on productivity.

The joke was, that anarchists in general are not a big fan of authorative things, so you can cite all the definitions you want - there will be still lots of anarchists who will oppose that and have their own definition. And yes, they are contradictive, as for example some anarchists negate all authorithy all the time (at least in theory), while some are fine with voluntarily authority, with a grey area into unvoluntarily authority.

(In my opinion, there is allmost no anarchist opposed to all authority - they might say so, but only because they negate the existence of informal hierachies and do not consider collectivism (theft) as a shape of authority for instance. Lots of hypocrisy going on there, but there are self aware and righteous folks among them)

to put things in context, malta is an island country in Europe with a population of ~500k, and a gdp of ~$17B, truly a small state. i think it would be very hard for them to compete with a bigger, more developed country without the incentives you mention. of course taxes are just a part of the discussion, but a part nonetheless.

Forget the USB boards, they all work to the best of the USB / UVC limitations but they aren’t great. You want to hook your camera sensor up to a processor with a CSI input.

Image sensors are really just high speed ADC clocking out data, whether the data is useful or not is up to the viewer. What I’m getting at is forget FPS and think data rates.

So, you need a processor that is that can handle that data rate. The napkin math says 2K@240FPS has the same data rate as 4K@60FPS. All you need is a processor or module that can handle it and you’re golden. There are demos of the RPI pushing 1000fps (at a significant lower resolution) but you get the point.

Off the top of my head, NVIDIA jetson, imx8m mini plus, the latest allwinner V series, and a whole host of unobtainable in less than 10k qty parts all supported this. The rest is up to you.

Also, RPi is out even with 4 lanes because the CSI input doesn’t support the speed required on each lane.
Most of what's south of switzerland or north of estonia has decent local weather for it. Finland's resources are quite good compared to even some equatorial places like PNG, just with higher seasonal variability. It's more the central part + UK. The point being that latitude is less important than weather, and as such claiming that solar is untenable in northern US or southern canada because it's merely okay in england is an obvious lie.

All of which is not to say solar won't be more important than gas, coal or nuclear in central europe going forward. Just that wind will take the front seat.
What more transparency do you want? Their right to request moderation actions and Twitter’s right to refuse those requests is extremely well documented in court cases.

>The daily shower would be hard to sustain in a world without fossil fuels.

>The shower doesn’t get much attention in the context of climate change. However, like airplanes, cars, and heating systems, it has become a very wasteful and carbon-intensive way to provide for a basic need: washing the body. Each day, many of us pour roughly 70 litres of hot water over our bodies in order to be “clean”.

this is your brain on energy austerity. someone tell the author about this little thing called uranium fission.

also what's with the scare-quotes around "clean"?

>In principle, the energy for a shower could be generated by renewable energy sources. However, if eight billion people were to shower daily, total energy use per year would be 6,132 terawatt-hours (TWh). This is eight times the energy produced by wind turbines worldwide in 2017 (745 TWh). All (current) wind turbines in the world could provide only 1 billion people with a “sustainable” daily shower. Furthermore, the use of renewable energy sources doesn’t lower the water use of the daily shower. To be clear, renewable energy is part of the solution – solar boilers, biomass, heat generating windmills – but we also need to look at the demand side of washing in a post-carbon world.

lmao, saying the quiet part out loud. spend trillions on global energiewende, and we can't shower once we get to the promised land.

>A nine minute hot shower per day is by no means a basic necessity: it’s a treat.

eat shit.

this is what they want: the whole world locked into a permanently sub-21st century standard of living. renewables don't scale, so their ideology has to tell you it's a good thing to be poor, and that enjoying a hot shower is a sign of wickedness. no "treats" for bad pets.

all the wonders of modernity happened because we figured out how to harness exponentially more energy per capita, first by coal, then by oil, then by fission. one day, God willing, we'll jump to fusion. but if the Devil gets his way and we let the degrowthers flatten the curve: that's it. our standard of living hits a ceiling and stays there forever. that's what they really mean by "sustainability".

It's just really weird to me that people are all shocked-Pikachu about Carmack wanting to be the auteur in this scenario and to wield Meta's effectively-infinite resources in the exact ways that he wanted. It's apparent from every interview and article about him that this is how he operates. It seems to have worked well for him in the past, but it was obviously going to be a major culture clash at Meta unless they gave in and let him run the thing.
