I think xqcgrek2 says “has to” in the pragmatic sense.

It likely is true that the landlord can legally force Twitter to pay up, but if that leads to Twitter’s bankruptcy, they won’t get the money.

Also, if they end up with a building that isn’t rented out, they may have to devalue their property and take a huge administrative loss. If their personnel’s bonuses are somewhat tied to their balance capital and/or revenues, their employees won’t want to end up there.

It is a bit of playing chicken. If the landlord thinks Twitter will go down if they play it as hard as possible, they will (grudgingly) accept changes to the lease contract. A common tactic is to decrease rents per m² or decrease the amount of floor space in exchange for restarting the lease period (e.g. if they’re in year 4 of a five year lease period, halve the rent, but start a new five year period). That way, the landlord can (somewhat) declare this as a victory because there’s more ‘certainty’ that the property will still make money in three years time.

App was too hard, didn’t download.

Very interesting, when was this? That, and "audio doesn't work", are one of the few Linux issues I hear people about that I've never had to deal with myself.
Wayland only added support for fractional scaling a couple months ago, it will be a while before we see it standardized in desktop settings and app libraries (maybe longer for Electron).

GNOME is certainly a tweak-lover's nightmare though, I'd recommend giving KDE a spin if you're brave. Qt applications and KDE should recieve fractional scaling support much sooner than GNOME (patch is already written/submitted), and generally the settings menu on that desktop is much more granular.
It's more efficient if you're time constrained. However it's probably worse for untrained and overweight people due to higher impact on the joints.
TCP/IP does not use the OSI model. Stacking layers on top of each other promotes inefficiency and poor security, and is one reason why TCP/IP won over the OSI-recommended protocols.
I did this about four years ago. I hated it. Even running with my collie or listening to audio books didn't help. It just felt like a miserable chore, every time I put on my running shoes. In the end I just quit.

Now I hike every weekend, at least 10 miles, which lets me go out with family and friends. I also do various martial arts with my son, which as a shared activity is so much more enjoyable.

The only time I'll run again is if I'm being chased.
Am I missing something or does this implementation only work with integer functions. If you have to write your own mapreduce for every type, that kind of defeats the point.

So you think Twitter is being sued for non-payment of rent based on misinterpreted semantics?
Languages have advantages and disadvantages, aside from being novel. Java is a memory hog in comparison to Go; Go is probably a bit faster in execution. The "eco system" for Go is pretty good, tooling too; I'm sure Java has a larger set of libraries and frameworks to choose from, but less easy to integrate. Idk about the current state, but Eclipse and Netbeans were so unpleasant when I did Java.

The choice is yours, novelty or not.
That wouldn't happen in this case because there would still be residual value in the equity. Is Twitter worth $45bn? No. Is Twitter worth more than the $13bn in debt? Yes.

In this case, they can file, rollover the debt into a new company with no financial loss and then recap the equity with Musk (who obviously has the money to do so) and other shareholders.

Also, the banks who own the debt do not want to run Twitter. All they want is to be able to mark the loan as performing...that is it. In cases where debtholders take over the company, the debt has usually been sold for significantly less than par to someone who wants to run the company. This isn't the case here because the debt is still worth par (imo, largely because it is obvious that a recap would be straightforward...it may be the case that Twitter's financial position is significantly worse, but we will need to wait and see).

Obviously, the question for the leases is how much it is, whether it is worth it, whether the landlord thinks they can get a new tenant (unlikely at this point), and whether the company can be relocated...the lease would have to be a rather large proportion of expenses to make this all worth it...but it may be worth it if the company is going to recap anyway (which seems likely).
Running has the advantage of cost and simplicity. A pair of running shoes and a very simple free programme like couch to 5k and you're set.

The only exercise I can think of with a lower barrier to entry is walking. Every able-bodied person knows how to run, even if they can't go very fast or far.

Strength training has a higher barrier to entry - weight training requires a gym membership or your own weight room, and you have to learn to perform specific movements correctly and safely, which requires research or paying a personal trainer. Bodyweight strength training also requires learning many not necessarily intuitive movements. Other forms of cardio also usually require an investment in expensive equipment (eg. cycling) or a membership (eg. swimming).

Running isn't recommended to sedentary people because it's an optimal exercise - it's suggested because anyone can pick it up with minimal cost and learning. And it's more time-efficient than walking.
It also means no human thought it was worth their time to voice the video. Not a good so sign.

> If the goal of your story is just to densely transmit information then maybe you should just print bullet points on cards and mail them instead?

This is exactly the reason why I prefer emails to meetings! Half[1] the meetings I attend can be replaced by emails, preferably with bullet points as you said.

Edit: as child comment has pointed out, we may be talking across each other: for stories those are important but not crucial. For professional communication, I want as little subtlety as possible

1. Perhaps more. Meetings are a huge time sinks. Few people are effective at presiding over them: unactionable ramblings, repetition, demanding that people who don't need to be there to attend. Interestingly, the higher ups who invariably demand this "face-time" use similar arguments to yours
The elephant in the room with Linux on the desktop is: if you install Linux on a machine, you are de facto the integrator.

If you don't want, or can't, do the job of a system integrator for your PC, you can now buy PC with Linux pre-installed. Or use another pre-installed OS.

You may think installing Linux on a machine is not a big deal (and I'd agree as far as I'm concerned ;) but it's clear it causes a lot of grief and frustration for some.

If you're new to Linux, please get a pre-installed PC. If you want to install Linux on a PC, be aware that the integration is on you. So start easy: well supported models (Thinkpad, Latitude), stick with integrated graphics, be careful about new models particularly with big changes (e.g.: the recent new "soft" webcams), and in general do a bit of research before so you can get confident you can deal with it.
slight tangent: I've been looking to upgrade an old AMD card and I'm looking at Nvidia cards, is there a way to know which cards are compatable with Linux and which aren't worth looking at?
In classical mechanics momentum is the derivative of position with respect to time. In quantum mechanics momentum is the gradient, i.e. the combination of the partial derivatives with respect to the three directions of space, of the wave function [1], i.e. the probability amplitude of the particle as a function of position.

In consequence, classically one can prepare a particle with any position and any momentum independently, i.e. one fixes the position and the time derivative of the position. Quantum mechanically fixing the position distribution also fixes the momentum distribution as the later is the derivative of the former with respect to space and therefore can not be specified independently. Similarly to the classical case one can also fix the time derivative of the wave function but that corresponds to the energy, not the momentum.

[1] In position space.
According to the landlord Twitter is supposed to have been “in default” on their lease as of Dec 21. It’s like the second sentence of the Bloomberg article we’re commenting on, before the subscription fold.
I was similarly disappointed with its knowledge of Final Fantasy.

Me: How do you get Xcalibur in the original Final Fantasy?

> To obtain Xcalibur in the original Final Fantasy, the player must first complete the Waterfall Cavern and defeat the Water Fiend. Then, the player must take the Waterfall Key to the Marsh Cave and defeat the Earth Fiend. Finally, the player must travel to the Castle of Ordeals and defeat the Fire Fiend. After completing these tasks, the player can return to the Waterfall Cavern and enter the hidden room to obtain Xcalibur.

Those are all locations and enemies within the game, but the steps are completely incorrect. Even where to fight the fiends is wrong!

Looking at GameFAQs, there are dozens of walkthroughs for the game. It seems pretty surprising that it can be so close yet so far off.

Admittedly I have not seen how a native linux game works and that to me just makes me continue to feel like linux isn't ready?

Logically I get it, a tool like proton is most likely the only way that Linux (or anything not Windows) was going to be an option for gaming at all.

My concern here is not in how it runs, how good proton is, or even how "easy" it is to setup.

It all boils down to average users for me. I continue to find myself (and I feel like many of us do) overestimating the technical knowledge of the average consumer. I know for many years I had assumed that my generation (I am now 32) would be the generation that the average user would be able to pick up any new technology and run with it. That has been proven false to me many times now...

What happens with it fails, what happens when a game was previously working but breaks in a future version of proton or worse breaks because the developer pushes an update (and maybe its an online service game so you have to update).

Idk something about this entire thing has just felt wrong to me in how we are pushing Linux as a gaming platform.

My wife works a decent white-collar job at a giant company and negotiated a 20% pay decrease to go down to 4 days a week. She's never been happier, she doesn't even feel like she needs to take vacations very often as that simple switch is life altering. She's the only one she knows that will say No to overtime. If she wasn't so valuable, she wouldn't have been approved at a company like that, and even now it still seems unheard of to do such a thing, but people are finally starting to try.

Her boss is asking her quarterly about her goals with the company and more specifically about taking over his director level job, to which she says "no way" every time. She can see how shittily bosses are treated at the company, they are forced to work insane overtime without pay, deal with personnel issues, eat shit from above constantly, deal with all issues, can't fire the dead weight (which is everywhere), are expected to work over lunch every day and be available to work on vacation, which they usually can't take. Yet they don't seem to grasp that anybody with a brain can see this is an awful trade off for like 10-30% more pay, which just gets taxed away anyway and which you never have time to spend.

You can see it in the faces of these folks, they look prematurely aged. You know how you see a picture of someone's face and say "they look like they had a hard life"? Yeah, go on facebook and see which of your colleagues took the management job and go back 5 years and be blown away at how they aged. It's both sad and shocking.

Misery loves company, why wouldn't young employees want to be as "successful" as us?
Before one epoch, both the train and eval curves look pretty much identical. Quite curious
Hi graderjs,

In latching onto the elitism angle, you might have misunderstood the point I'm trying to make. It's not that software people are so much smarter or better than other professionals. It's that software engineers (and possibly professionals in general, but this goes beyond my realm of significant experience) are more intelligent on average than a random person off the street. For example, look at Instagram comments sometime. They tend towards truly unreadable nonsense. The people pushing out these gems are the kind of randos I'm referring to. To be clear, I'm not saying software people's average mental capacity exceeds that if plumbers, doctors, bankers, etc. Only that on average it's way above the true average intelligence of the general public population.

A long time I worked on a free messaging app. In debugging issues I occasionally had to look at random selections of messages from the DB (conversation history), and it was utterly depressing. The average human is much lower, depressingly so, than I had previously fathomed.
> A field which has so many tools to objectively quantify their work

On the contrary, I think the problem is that these tools do not exist.
Even Ubuntu desktop can be pretty daunting. I remember the App Store (or whatever they call it) falling apart when trying to install Discord and having to resort to command line magic to fix it. That’s sort of the pattern in my experience - Ubuntu desktop mostly “just works”, but occasionally needs a prod from the command line to fix some issue or install some piece of software… but that’s not really acceptable for nontechnical (or even technical but not Linux-savvy) users.

The LTT videos where they try to game on Linux and experience a range of interesting issues that require semi-advanced Linux-fu to fix is also a good illustration of this.
It would be great if they could at least bring the runtime to PC so that people could distribute their games more widely - although at that point you might as well have the whole editor too.
TextInput does not appear to be rich text, I don’t see a way to represent bold text in the docs, much less complex rendering like @mentions tokens, images, or tables. Unfortunately when I Google “rich text input React native”, all the libraries I found use a Webview internally.

Can you explain in more detail how you’d style a Heading element, block level image element, and a Quote element within the same editable TextInput? The important UX feature is that the user should be able to start a text selection in a Heading, and end the selection in the Quote, so when they press delete, the image is removed and the quote is merged into the heading.
Love all that valuable feedback.
• Likewise I also do a lot of airbnbs in different countries too. In a new region though I usually encounter a kind of fishbowl syndrome - there's always some small area where people 'in the know' seem to congregate around - like the hindsight obvious neighborhood or cafe for get-up-and-running-quickly nomadding. Takes me days to find those locales from square-one in a new region because I haven't met the savvy folks yet, if the locale even exists in a given area. I often wish there was a go-to network for that (there is, it's just a bit sparse coverage still especially the more rural / developibg country you find yourself in.

• I love the articulating of tbe hard-to-be-productive-because-beacb problem. I definitely hit that in coastal Zanzibar earlier this year.I actually think that's a really worthwhile problem to solve, probably by siting a co-working / co-living community more inland.(Like, there's a reason why Obama wrote his book in inland Ubud of Bali rather than coastal Denpasar).
Interesting. I found I was able to naturally switch keyboards between machines and even OS'es on the same machine, but if I tried it within a single window it would confuse me. Ssh would freeze me up, too. But then I've been switching between natural languages in my day to day my whole life.
I recently bought a new laptop and initially installed Linux (Ubuntu) on it, but then uninstalled it for the following reasons:

- No 2-finger swipe for back/forward navigation in internet browsers. This is impossible on Linux since Linux doesn't support customizing 2-finger swipe. Sure I could set it on 3-finger swipe, but I wanted 2-finger swipe.

- Couldn't connect my Airpod Pro wireless headphones. Searching around it seemed to not be possible to connect the headphones with microphone.

There were a lot of annoying things I had to fix that work out of the box in Windows/Mac like the scroll speed in Chrome being way too slow (had to install a Chrome extension to fix). Googling solutions leads you somewhere like askubuntu.com which I found extremely unreliable - with often the highest upvoted answer not even answering the question, so you need to go through a bunch of different questions where people tell you to download some random dude's package that hasn't been updated in 5-10 years and doesn't even work.

Ultimately the dealbreakers combined with the general difficulty and hassle of doing basic things led me to uninstall it and go back to Windows (with Windows Subsystem for Linux). I really wanted to use a free open source operating system, but I didn't want to sacrifice on the above functionality and have to waste a lot of time fiddling with my computer just to get basic things working. Shame because there are a lot of things I don't like about Windows and it's not very customizable (eg. can't reduce size of taskbar on Windows 11 without hacky regedit update that cuts off the bottom of the toolbar, no way to alt-tab among same application windows in reverse order where it immediately switches to application. I have an AutoHotKey script that only partially works)
Yes, one hundred percent. I work in the intersection of mechanical, electrical and computer engineering and the latter is a toddler compared to older engineering fields.

I think there are several reasons for this: low barrier to entry, short cycle times, almost zero distribution cost. Compare delivering new or updated SW to designing and machining a part or making a PCB.

That's what makes computer engineering so exciting and also sometimes frustrating.

>they tend to STOP working

The worst part is that when they do stop working, I have forgotten the horrible kludge of steps I had to go through to get something working the first time around. Of course the answers are out there, but finding the one answer that worked on the distro I used? Needle, meet haystack. I feel this is due to a reliance on CLI to do almost everything. CLI wouldn't be so problematic if those steps worked on every distro. This is the reason that fragmentation is holding LoD back IMO.
If animals are persons, should they bear criminal responsibility?

They already do. At least in the U.S. if an animal is deemed a threat to others it is put down and more often than not without any judiciary involvement. Law enforcement officers may invoke summary judgement and execution. One could argue that is more impactful and serious than the punishments to humans that are a threat to others. In addition to this if someone was harmed, the animals handler can suffer both criminal and civil legal action.
> The OSI model has been around for a very long while.

Even imagining that for some reason I wasn't aware of that, why would it be relevant?

> If you have a degree in CS, or have studied networking in university - chances are you've had to learn about the OSI model.

And the waterfall software development model. A bunch of long obsolete data structures. Open Hypermedia (remember that? No? That's OK it doesn't matter any more).

What's happened here is that you've privileged a bad model that somebody probably taught you out of a textbook (hopefully while grimacing, since this is useless "information") over the real world experience of dozens of really smart people who work with actual networking and designed QUIC.

Maybe, if I'm giving you benefit of the doubt you've assumed "user" somehow means "undergraduate who is studying the OSI model" but it doesn't - billions of people use the Internet, far more than will study any degree, let alone Computer Science. And it's quite reasonable for them to expect their communications to have these three properties.

If your preferred model insists that we can't have security until the application layer then your model is wrong, just as surely as if you have a model of the Atom which assumes it's a solid ball of something (the plum pudding model, as with OSI perhaps some undergraduates were taught this model between when it was proposed and when experiments showed it's just wrong).

Thank you :)

There is no protection against voltage spikes on the inputs, there is just the pull-up resistor on the Raspberry Pi input. So this is a weak point. I did consider both EOL resistors and optoisolators when I first got started. But decided against it.

There are dedicated tamper inputs, which runs through the tamper switches in multiple devices before returning to the control cabinet. But EOL resistors would be a better and more secure option. I have thought about using something like an AVR microcontroller to read the voltage level and convert to something the Raspberry Pi could use. Maybe in the future.

I can always make changes in the future — thanks for your input :)
