If we are complaining about credit cards, mine is the large number of sites that ask for credit card details out of order. Number, then name, then zip code, maybe month/year or some equally cursed implementation. Even better if tabbing between fields is equally random.

Have these designers never looked at their own credit card before? Or is there just an incredible desire to be different that they require a unique take for this already solved problem?
nginx is pretty unusable via docker - I guess file system cache is the issue…
It looks like the postgres docker containers were updated about 1pm pacific, which is around when we started to see issues.

there's a new PR merged into the github repo to fix a bug caused by the above merge: https://github.com/docker-library/postgres/commit/41bd7bf3f4...

I bet they'll be pushing out new containers shortly.
> Yes, the government can get warrants for pen registers, issue NSLs and the like but there's still a process for that.

> This simply isn't true for the Chinese government and Chinese companies.

Huh? Do you think the Chinese intelligence services don't have to go through processes and approvals before grabbing user data? It's exactly the same thing - sure it's a secret court that rubber-stamps every request put in front of it, but that's no different from how NSLs work.
To use SQL (or rather, push compute to the database) well you need to think in sets, indexes, etc; the primitives you work with is rather different from the ones you usually use in C#.

You need to switch mode of thought anyway.

If a really good language for that happens to be expressed in the language of the C# AST -- instead of some new syntax -- that would be fine with me. I do not see a big difference.

But since one needs to switch mode of thought anyway, a new high level language that compiles to SQL and would be usable across all backend languages I would like slightly better. But, whatever fixes the problem of allowing pushing computation to the database without all the warts in SQL I am all for.

Until that really gets a bit further than today I prioritize writing SQL over a bit too leaky abstractions.
The fear for nuclear power is a manufactured one because there is almost no technological difference in the capabilities required to use nuclear power for energy and for weapons. Having many nuclear capable countries would mean a major shift in geopolitical situation of the planet, it would end up in choice of catastrophic destruction or permanent peace.

I believe that countries that are already nuclear capable would always prefer to keep their advantage while using overblown fear propaganda about nuclear energy to create a deterrent for their population about nuclear power in order to maintain the status quo especially during difficult times.
… this literally doesn't mesh with reality.

I've had 3 MBPs, every single one has had at least one issue, well before 7 years, usually around 1.5 to 2. The first two had battery recalls, the middle one had cable-gate, the middle one's display was also very temperature sensitive (it would have glitched lines artifact on the screen if the ambient temperature wasn't near 70F), the later MBP suffers from keyboard-gate and from constant thermal throttling. (Likely because the vents are choked with dust, but MBP's user hostile design prevents me from opening it up and pushing air through it, which is likely all it requires. They hate the user so much they used screws worse than Torx. I think they're Pentalobe, but don't quote me.)

My current Magic Trackpad is also highly temperature sensitive. The "click" will lock up at high temp. (I.e., the trackpad will fight you, if you attempt to click, if the ambient temperature is warm.)

> I'd be very surprised to hear about people using 2021 Framework laptops as their daily driver in 2026.

I'm using a Lenovo Thinkpad at about that age. (It is a 2017 model, so, 5 years.) The biggest thing wrong with it at present is it requires AC power. (The battery connection is bad. It lived through two bike crashes, though, and I suspect that's a side effect of it. I should see if that's repairable, one of these days, but I've put up with that for the time, as with COVID, it doesn't really travel much anymore.) The TrackPoint™ is also wonky, but I think that's because sunlight has chemically hardened the nib like an old eraser. I have more nibs… somewhere. I should look for them or order more…

Samba outperforms ksmbd anyway - https://samba.plus/blog/detail/ksmbd-a-new-in-kernel-smb-ser...

The main reason to use ksmbd is if you can't use GPLv3 Samba. Most PC SMB servers will still be using Samba instead of ksmbd for this reason. Ksmbd is mostly used on NAS boxes.

>>which is why you vote regularly to ensure that your rights are represented and those agencies aren't able to abuse their power

That never works out in practice as the administrative state (which includes the FBI and CIA) are soo far removed from representative government they are basically unaccountable at this point, that is with out even getting into the idea that 1 vote in a nation of 350 million plus holds no real power anyway, or the problems with First past the post, or countless other topics around voting

"Democracy" is more or less an delusion those in power perpetuate to ensure the cattle think they have a choice

>>Imagine a world where the United States is convinced to stand by as Taiwan is invaded

I think we already live in such a world.

>>The CIA and FBI have checks on them and are balanced as we speak.

Do they? In any real sense? We have confirmed and rumored massive violations of constitutional rights both here and abroad yet there is no accountability. From the Torture report, to massive violation of 4th amendment via "parallel construction" to even the possibility of actual assassinations..

Who exactly are they accountable to? it is certainly not the people, or the constitution
I suspect it goes the other way, stroads polarizing people against ever wanting to live near active corridors.

But either way, that’s how the vast majority of American housing development has been since the 40s, and it’s the only way people have ever lived in the cities that got their growth in the postwar period. So either way they have the preference.

It really is bizarre seeing how some people are complaining about a $250 million bond as being a "slap on the wrist". It's not a fine, it's not a punishment -- he hasn't even been convicted of anything yet. He is nothing more than a pre-trial detainee. And, yes, being under house arrest still constitutes detention.

Just seems like there's so much bloodlust here against someone who -- under the United States Constitution -- is still presumed innocent until found to be proven guilty beyond a reasonable doubt in a court of law by a jury of his peers. Sorry.

The FBI has that power, but at least in theory they don't want to. That's the balance we strike with government: we give them the monopoly on the legitimate use of force, in exchange for some kind of believe that they won't mis-use that force.

The FBI has at least some kind of supervision, from elected officials who ultimately answer to their constituents. That's a long way from a guarantee, but it's more than nothing, which is what you have on China.

China can't (legitimately) put you in a cage, but they can do a lot of other things to make you really unhappy, and there's nothing you can do about it. Whether that nets out to be more or less scary is up to you, but there is a difference on which to make the distinction.

Me, I'm not really so sure that this app represents all that big a threat compared to all of the other things. My concerns are more with the intermediate: large corporations without the power to put me in a cage but with the power to do a lot of other bad things. Including just plain losing my info by accident, something neither the FBI nor China is likely to do.
"One hundredth the weight of conventional solar cells, 18 times the energy output per kilogram" this translates to 18% of the output per surface area, which, for solar panels, is the more important metric. The second most important metric is cost, I wofner what the cost per watt output is on these. This of course can go down with scale, and the output can go up with more development.

It's cool, lightweight solar is a pretty great thing.

Linux UI actually becomes very unresponsive under load (on most distros) because the default kernel scheduler is tuned for throughput at the cost of responsiveness, instead of vice versa.

Desktop distros switching to a more user-friendly scheduler, and loading a ‘small speaker’ EQ via Pulse on detecting internal speakers (= laptop) are two massive, low-hanging fruit improvements for Linux that just don’t seem to be done.

I'm very skeptical that there is such a thing as a regulation which can keep a state actor with zero transparency like TikTok in check.

Even if you move all of their code and mandate that they have a shell company in the United States, and you mandate that none of American data ever goes to China, they can ignore you. You validate that every request only stays in the United States? How do you validate that there's no communication between the two systems?

The state they operate in is going to make whistle blowing very difficult, not ever allow proper auditing into the state apparatus which ultimately controls the company.

You can administrate code, but unless you actually build that code yourself and basically understand it from the ground up with every single update, which is going to be nearly impossible, it's going to be very easy to sneak features through.

The problem is, keeping this safe is going to be a herculan task, and we're just not up to it. Facebook is tame in comparison, because at the end of the day they're subject to our open media, transparency laws, corporate auditing, and all of that other fun stuff.

We can reasonably pass regulations that help keep Facebook in check.

In woodworking and other crafts this is called the "Harbor Freight rule": when you need a tool for the first time, you go buy the cheapest one from Harbor Freight. Either the tool will never break in which case you don't use it enough to justify something more expensive, or you do use it enough to break it at which point you've gained enough experience to shop around properly.

This rule sounds wasteful but in the real world of uncertainty and risk, it pays for itself almost immediately.

Lol, who is moving the goal posts now. You simply lost the argument.

Nothing completely solves the poor people problem and I have not claimed on doing so. Specially when we talk about thing we do in first world nations, as most people live in places like India and Indonesia and the problems there are actually pretty different.

They lack infrastructure when in the US the problem is actually that there is, to much and it not used effectively.

This articles is about:

> The cost of being poor: Why it costs so much to be poor in America

And I am point out things that are almost universally accepted by urban planning community know-days. It address this specific point, why cost of living are so high in the US for poor people.

Addressing these points would not solve poverty, but it would reduce a huge cost burden from a huge part of the population and would improve living quality substantially.

This was modeled by a famous urban planner for California: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fUtdFbK4YG4
Heh no - not really that good. The former ATP 500 player literally lives in my building and hits with a few guys here who he's known for a while (also former college guys who played at the ATP level briefly) and I've been fortunate to be able to jump in on occasion as one of those guys is a good friend of mine who invites me from time to time. Can't say I can really hang at that level for very long. I didn't even play on my high school team!

Football wise, even worse - I just picked up the game playing in college and in local games growing up but was never any good. The ex-United kid quit the sport and moved to the US for school and lived near the local pitch where the pickup matches were held and he would just wander over for yucks. He ran (walked, really, due to his knee) rings around everyone.
> It's dehumanizing and unsustainable

Absolutely. And there are a variety of legal solutions to this. Unions are the big scary one in the US. Other nations give employees equal voting power to shareholders etc.

I think tech unions could be good. Everyone always defaults to “blue collar” unions like factories that set wages but there are “high skill” unions where wages aren’t set (eg Hollywood unions). They spread the protection around too. Eg if you want to hire a famous Union actor, you need Union cameramen. Everyone wants the famous actor, and that protects the camera crew. In Hollywood unions, they set hours and expectations and basic standards but not salaries and other perks.

Another benefit a Union could get is related to on-call load and getting paid for that overtime.
Interesting. This could have interest from China, since they have to use Android without the Google push service, causing battery drain issues. They are trying to come up with their own push notification service.

I agree. Windows is basically fine these days. It's even better than Mac and Linux in a big way from a desktop stability point of view because it has the Ctrl-alt-delete interface which works reliably and lets you kill the offending program.

Linux has various useless options like sysreq shortcuts that you can't remember and kill random processes, and I don't think Mac has anything, though to be honest I don't recall ever bringing a Mac to its knees so much that I couldn't open a terminal and run `top`.

Don't force me to do anything. Don't force me to make an account, don't force me to uncheck a box to say I don't want you to send me spam, don't tack on "extras" like a youtube subscription that I have to notice and unselect.

Don't even ask me to make an account on your site until I have fully completed my purchase, and don't try to trick me into thinking I need one.

The thing about making an account that is so annoying is that I already need at least two accounts to buy something online, usually. I need some kind of account that lets me pay for things, like a credit card or paypal. I then also need an email account to check out, usually.

There is nothing wrong with consuming a moderate amount of dairy products.

However the justification for this must be that you like their taste, not for supposed health benefits.

Dairy contains a lot of nutrients and it is certainly preferable to many kinds of industrially-made food that are filled with dubious ingredients, colorants, flavors, sweeteners, oils and so on.

On the other hand, in order to claim "health benefits", it would have been necessary for dairy to be a superior source for the included nutrients, which it is not.

For proteins, a better source is lean meat, e.g. turkey breast or chicken breast, for fat much better sources are the vegetable fat sources, which allow the selection of an optimal fatty acid profile, for calcium a much better source is a supplement like calcium citrate powder, which allows the choice of any desired daily intake without disturbing the daily intakes for the other nutrients.

It is good to enjoy dairy, but one should not try to rationalize this preference as being motivated by health concerns.
I think you read "revenue" as "disposable income."
