I've thought about it plenty and I wholeheartedly disagree. Fuck working if you don't have to. My idea of hell is being forced to work.

I suggest you think more about how other people might fundamentally disagree with you.
Some of you may remember something similar from a few years ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=20405957

Well, I'm back, and this time I've managed to turn this into an actual physical product! It all started with a simple blog post back in 2019, which gained enough traction on various websites that it seemed worthwhile pursuing. So, a Kickstarter[0] was, well, started – but it never gathered enough momentum to get it across the line (and looking back, rightly so), and so everything got put on hold.

Then the pandemic happened, and I’m kind of glad the idea hadn’t taken off. I did however continue to get a trickle of messages and DMs asking what happened to LidLayer, and if there were any plans for the future…

Fast-forward a year or two, and I get the opportunity to go to a conference for work – the beautiful Objective by the Sea (ObtS)[1], where I am surrounded by stickered MacBooks! The idea of LidLayer immediately pops back into my head, and I can’t help but take another look at it, to see if I can make it work (it must be good if I keep coming back to it, right?).

So, I managed to find a supplier who can accurately cut the LidLayers way more cost-effectively than I ever could, meaning I could finally bring this whole thing back to life. And, what that also means is that because the cost of producing these has gone down, I can pass that saving on to you! Win win win!

people with homes steal things they see available as well. even people who aren't poor steal things, either just for "fun" or because they are opportunistic and trying to just amass more wealth. laptops, cars etc. are not stolen by homeless people, more like professional thieves. I've seen a lot of things stolen, my own and that of close family members. Crowded places have more theft, facilitated by there just being lots of people around and also that it's the norm for everyone to be completely anonymous of everyone else. Have not been to Asia but you certainly will get your stuff stolen in European cities as well (have had that happen also in Dublin for example, extremely traumatizing).

>Their dark pattern compelling you to "buy" instead of simply download elementary (for which I doubt many $$$ go to for example the Linux kernel) is still present, too.

Give them a break! They put their hard work into something that could be useful for a lot of people and on top of that let the user name their price. There's nothing "dark" about that.
I love seeing comments in the code as they are usually the best entertainment I get all day. Especially when the code below it pretty much doesn’t do what it says anymore.
If you look for something in a complex system, and you look hard enough, you're probably going to find it. The example of epilepsy might just be seeing certain behavior through the lens of the theory. Unfortunately, the article fails to give us any hard definition of criticality.

AM radio (called "medium wave radio" in Europe) is still used in Eastern Europe, the UK, Spain etc.

The last AM broadcasts in Sweden stopped in 2010, see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/S%C3%B6lvesborg_medium_wave_tr...

I agree it's illuminating to understand diffusion models in relation to VAEs, but I personally consider them different models, but the line in the sand is definitely subjective.

I think this because (reasons I'm sure you're familiar with)

- Diffusion model is closest to a hierarchical VAE, but hierarchical VAEs were significantly less popular than regular VAEs

- The variational objective in diffusion models in practice is weighted

- Diffusion models require unchanging latent dimension while VAEs aren't restricted to this

- Historically, diffusion models grew out of score-based approaches, not from VAEs
I actually got a laptop from sager (clevo) and after 5 years of heavy use. my biggest complaint is the dam case. all the plastic clips broke. only a few screws holding it together. lots of gaps now. and a few cracks in the plastic.

but it's been thrown in a back pack and gone through several years of traveling in a back pack
I think a lot of us would agree we’d get more fulfillment with fighting off those wild animals and going through through that shit than cranking out Jira tickets and moving them between columns.
I have been curious about why AM stations exhibit the demographic effect you see (in terms of programming, station ownership, etc).

Is it because of something to do with the licensing of the spectrum, and the cost of buying that? Or because of the restrictions around broadcasting (content and distance) of any given station? Or the cost of equipment to operate?

So interesting that something about how the domain operates that creates a different dynamic of what you hear on the radio in AM vs. FM.
I remember back not the 70s and 80s helping my father repair stuff. So many appliances had a repair manual attached to their back, or maybe a electrical schematic taped inside the a panel.

I agree.

The sentiment I'm hearing is the executives feel like they've been scammed by the Tech Industry and DIE initiatives. They trusted the "experts", and it was all a big scam.

At my firm they are mad, seriously mad. In moments like that, they talk about firing half of my division. I keep having to walk them back to reality.
It's tough really tough right now dealing with personalities.

The people who make these decisions no longer trust the reports,the economy, the experts, and industry guidelines. It's a shitshow at the top right now.
Make sure your SEO is better, otherwise do business as usual.

Is your business a website, or is your business your excellent customer service and providing a better experience than your competitors?

Considering you've been in business 10 years, it's already the latter. Double down on the best customer experience you can provide. People with money and loyalty aren't going to jump ship because another site has similar look.
Compare the 10-year effort for the ANSI standardization of Common Lisp with the two-week, ill-considered marketing-directed creation of JavaScript, now one of the world's most popular languages, and the resultant decades of technical debt.
We listen to a great many things that we objectively know aren't true. Or which have no specific bearing on truth.

Listening is critical to all communication (there's at least one speaker and one listener to any conversation involving one or more sentiences). I'd suggest that the goal of listening is to understand the other party, at least within the universe of their story or experience. You don't have to believe, agree, sympathise, or even empathise. You may have entirely selfish reasons for doing so (is this person a threat / kook / messiah / ...?). If we choose to listen, though, the principle goal is only occasionally seeking truth.

You can critically re-evaluate until the cows come home. Won't materially change anything.

I miss old school labor, or at least how they're described in the history books. Forcefully changing things for the better. Now we have a bunch of people critically evaluating everything on social media, expecting things to change as if they asked to speak with society's manager, expecting them to fix it.
Except the pay sucks. You can make a lot of money concatenating HTML strings.
It is valuable for SPAM filters, and other fraudulent activity. If you get an e-mail from someone you know and it says "I need itunes gift cards right away!" most people know that is a scam. But if you get an e-mail that appears to be following up on a previous conversation, you are much more likely to click on a link in that e-mail.
As you go back through the ages life gets worse. The implication is that life in the present is supposed to be the best possible life. Consequently there is nothing wrong with trying to optimize it to be even better that it is right now. That's literally the purpose of being here, especially if you have children.

Stating that life should be hard now because your ancestors had it worse is completely missing the point. They all strived to make life better for their progeny. We need to be doing the same. That means refusing to accept things being worse than necessary.
> The argument that comments shouldn't be made because they'll "become stale" is pretty lame IMO

Better not write tests either, because those will become stale too.

And any sort of user documentation/support/etc. It'll all just become stale.

It's almost as if code is just part of a larger 'thing' that has to be maintained.
If you give a starving person a three-star michelin dinner, I don't think they would appreciate it properly. You need to be well-fed to appreciate the subtlety and the beauty of the meal. Similarly, people who don't have much free time may waste what little free time they get -- only when they have enough might they be able to figure out how to "properly" enjoy it.
Kind of both. It's a transmission method (amplitude modulation) that's very lo-fi which leads to it rarely being used for music, which dominates other radio. So it ends up being talk shows, sports, news, traffic reports, etc.
It's almost as if you need to give exams in person and watch the students if you don't want them to cheat. This is fundamentally no different than cheating by writing notes on your hand in an exam or paying someone to write a take-home essay for you. It's cheaper than the latter, but that just means the lazy curriculum finally needs to be updated.
I agree that directly dictating the market this way is heavy-handed, and people resent it. But some commonsense regulation of advertising would go a long way, and may even be more effective as well as better received. The reality is that while we all think we're doing what we damn well please, a lot of what we do is driven by pervasive marketing. Freed from predatory marketing and left to our own devices, I think we would be much healthier.
So your message is: bend over?

No, that's poverty. Poverty is a self-reinforcing loop, this is well studied. Malnutrition is malnutrition, you die from it in North America, Africa or whatever. I don't care for your new age "find happiness where you can" mumbo jumbo.

I don't live in the US nor anywhere close to the US, so stick your assumptions where the sun don't shine!

I'm puzzled, is "assuming people don't know a term I'm using and need googling it" part of your "just listen, do not try to win debates" strategy of TFA? Thanks for teaching me though, I didn't know anything about the history of the USSR!

It must be that I am not "producing value", haw haw haw!

I wrote a longer post to your bullshit reply, but I won't bother, since you decided to ignore this: "you also misunderstood my prompt, which was to debate with people who believe what I listed, not debate with me". Since you failed to engage with pretty simple instructions, and instead you chose to go your own way -- funnily enough, breaking the premise of TFA, which was "to listen"; instead of doing so you launched into an attempt to refute what you guessed were my objections -- I'll bid you adieu.

Good luck with your debate tactics!
Ok I guess I've had a bit of a different perception back then, since thinking back I think you're rights.

I guess the thing I was thinking of being cohesive were stuff like context menus, or integrating better with the window manager (or whatever it's called on Windows) than they do on Linux (since you had to integrate with the only existing one, not choose one). My earlier complaint about Krita/Inkscape is that most "labels" rendered in a colour and labels that was almost indistinguishable from the background, so I was largely working with shortcuts, or from memory and sometimes squinting to see what I'm clicking lol. It was an issue with all non-gnome apps, but I mostly used those two.

There are confounding factors at work here - for example, since 1979, people in NY have a legal right-to-shelter founded on the state constitution which does tend to generate a more encompassing homelessness policy than in, say, PA.

Every vendor that seems to say they care about coreboot implementation seems to just be doing it to capture the eyes of people like us who actually care about it. But then as you stated, they'd rather spend their time/money to write their own DE than give a shit about open firmware.

If I was going to buy a coreboot laptop it would likely be a higher end Chromebook that mrchromebox has a hack for.
I just wrote into System76 support looking for a replacement battery for my Lemur Pro (swollen battery), and mentioned I'd switched to my Framework in the meantime. Just got a response a few minutes ago:

I have worked with a few developers who shared this motto. I didn't agree with them.

While it's anecdotal, my understanding is that we were simply working on very, very different codebases. I was refactoring multi-million lines C++ codebases, implementing concurrent algorithms in which dependencies cannot be expressed through language constructs and I had to make non-trivial choices to prioritize performance, or safety, or security at the expense of readability.

On the other hand, these (few) developers were working on writing fresh code, with less footgunny languages, with simpler data and control dependencies and didn't need to make hard choices due to perf/safety/security.
I happened to listen to this podcast this morning which has some interesting things to say about this topic:

https://99percentinvisible.org/episode/the-divided-dial/
> Most want large apartments, entertainment, restaurants, travel, hotels, social media sites to discuss articles about 'workism' etc etc. And somebody has to build and run all those things so they can enjoy them.

One solid income used to buy an entire house. Why can't I want to work less and still have a large apartment? And that's without even considering productivity gains.

People can budget for entertainment without long work weeks.

I don't demand much in terms of restaurants and travel and hotels, shrug.

Websites are not expensive to run, and the cost of social media if directly paid for would be single digit dollars a month. Negligible in terms of someone's entire budget.
It's not exactly cheap to always have a backup that you know works. You have to set it up and test it periodically. Of course, that doesn't mean you shouldn't do it.
That seems really the only option; but how do they account for currents? Or do they match the sensor data with the engine output to correct for this?
>I don't think you know the difference between harassment and discrimination.

Semantic difference. It's discrimination to only help the hotties.

>If you're making the claim that MEN ignoring WOMEN is a form of harassment/discrimination, but WOMEN ignoring MEN isn't, then you're experiencing some severe form of cognitive dissonance.

I've had folks politely turn down coffee, but I literally never had a female classmate refuse to help me with something related to an engineering course.
Personally I sync the emails in my Gmail account to my server at Hetzner using imapsync [1] every once in a while. The data on that server is backed up off-site at rsync.net using Borg.

I asked chatgpt to write an essay as if it were written by a mediocre 10th grader. It did a reasonably good job. It threw in a little bit of slang and wasn’t particularly formal.

Edit. I sometimes tell my students “if you’re going to cheat, don’t give yourself a perfect score, especially if you’ve failed the first exam. It fires off alarm bells.”

But the students who struggle usually can’t calibrate a non-suspicious performance.

I guess the same applies here.
You could still cheat quite easily and inexpensively with an earpiece, as long as you know how to write down what you hear.
One leads from the other: the nature (transmission range, operational costs, and quality… or lack there-of) of AM radio in North America led it into rural-focused, talk-only (and eventually “conservative”) programming - and sports (just like how BBC Radio 5 is also AM, not FM).
So its the Canonical PR forum? My mistake.

Not really. Signals have a finite power level. If you open all the lanes all the time, you'll get a very attenuated signal throughout the entire network. If some connections are stronger than others, that's when you can actually see interesting behavior.

So what you're saying is that before the invention of the lamp, people had respite from work. Worker productivity has increased enormously in the last 100 years. My job entails putting good people out of work through analysis and design of more efficient (read: automated) workflows. At what point do we realize that we have to let go the "work hard every day until you die because that's the way may grandparents lived" ethic?
they come from human perception being limited to that which is useful for survival. purpose and logic are ways humans try to understand and be able to predict outcomes. natural laws are merely the human description of its perception of the intrinsic mechanics of the universe. none of these things, purpose, logic, or natural laws, is prescriptive for the universe, they're descriptive

The difference is that asbestos or lead exposure are much more dangerous and they are easily replaced with other materials that provide near identical functionality.

In moderation sugary and fatty foods and drinks are completely safe. Also, the substitutes available either taste completely different or are of dubious safety themselves (aspartame, margarine, etc.).

One approach is to punish everybody because a few people over consume these foods and another approach is to provide robust and accurate nutrition labels and warnings, and ensure that adults are properly educated to understand how to read them. You may disagree, but I value freedom and find the latter preferable to the former.

To me the fact that more information is transmitted with an intermediate number of connections than with a strongly connected network wasn't immediately obvious at first glance. I guess there is a link to entropy, i.e. how surprised can you be by the information received at one end of the network given its connectivity.
