Very true, although latency is much greater, so you may not get the last (hundreds of) milliseconds, as you would with ground-based receivers.
Great for testing logins on web apps. I used a FF plugin to do this, I presume having this in FF itself natively is new.
David Hilbert, for one, was apparently close. That said, I feel that it is a bit of a stretch to call it obvious (maybe more obvious in the sense of "this is the way to go" rather than that the answer was obvious.)
Algolia does pretty well I believe. I could be wrong.
They are. My guess is that person is doing something wrong.
I've been using this since it was new. I'm very frustrated to say the UI/UX hasn't seen any significant update.

Containers are still synced separately, so any fresh install of Firefox will have the tutorial UX and the default 4 containers, even after syncing.

Also, address bar completion is still monolithic, making it very easy to accidentally open a site in an undesired container. That can be worked around by adding every domain to a default container, but most of the utility of containers is to use several for a single domain, i.e. multiple email accounts each with their own container instances.

Containers are a feature I find very valuable, but they really need their UX to be a core browser feature, not an addon.

Cyberpunk is related because at launch it was shoving crapware out the door. It actually worked mostly fine on my PC, so its not a personal thing. I love the game.

It's the business practice of sending the customer their boots without the sole and toe box sewn together then telling them they get most of the experience earlier this way and theyll stitch it together in a month if they have the time.

I agree it will age well, particularly with the right improvements.
> there is strong support from data that skipping breakfast causes many people to eat more later, in particular eating more carbs/sugar/snack foods.

There's a big difference between skipping breakfast one time and habitually skipping breakfast. The body adapts. You no longer feel hungry in the mornings and you develop new eating patterns - since most people doing IF are focused on health, these are likely to be healthy eating patterns that don't include lots of sugary snacks. Apparently this adaptation takes the form of the liver learning not to expect breakfast after waking and producing glucose at that time, although I have not personally checked the research on this.

I've been doing IF 16:8 for about a year now. I rarely eat processed sugar (except a good croissant a few times a week). Even some fruits like ripe mango taste too sweet to me now.

From personal experience and discussing this with other people, if your fear is that you'll end up getting so hungry that you'll stuff your face with junk, it's not a valid fear beyond the first week. To avoid this I would suggest easing into it. Eat breakfast an hour later for a few days, then two hours later, and finally combine it with lunch.
Pretty useful. Something I learned at some point was that you can actually combine this with Wireguard: If you dig into the extension, there's a feature that lets you set a SOCKS5 proxy for a profile. You can then point it to a running Wireproxy to go from SOCKS5 to Wireguard. Could be handy.
I tried geforce now, it's amazing, lag is almost imperceptible with the 8ms ping I had.

Rate of learning depends on quality of teaching, and I found most textbooks, professors, and especially TAs to be laughably bad, despite going to a top Canadian university. Thank goodness for online ratings of books and courses to weed out the bad ones (worse now w more fake reviews, sadly)
They kept flying for 5 hours afterwards, which means the CVR will not have record of this incident (unless they pulled the circuit breaker soon afterwards, which is unlikely).
Interestingly enough Dijkstra anticipated your response and for me at least adequately refuted it in some of his other EWDs.

Are you aware that among the “narrowly defined problems, and do not deal with externally imposed, let alone changing, requirements” that Dijkstra solved are such doozies as distributed consensus, synchronization, and OS level hardware interrupt handling?

My own airline had an incident recently where one of our senior captains became so disoriented taking off at night over water that he thought every flight instrument onboard had become unreliable (VERY unlikely). He dove toward the ground but fortunately managed to land before a disaster occurred. His First Officer stated that she knew the problem wasn’t the flight instruments, but didn’t correct the captain adequately.

You’re right, these experienced pilots should know better, but incidents do happen.
They are UFOs. But the normal kind. Not the little green men X-Files kind.
Tailwind cannot be of use to those same sites either, because the compiler needs to process your HTML to cut the generated CSS down to size. You have merely traded one tool for another. If you actually want to change things without preprocessing, your option remains good old HTML and CSS.
They explicitly target the universities as part of their business model. That’s why I say it’s a human capital Ponzi scheme. They give products out to students and educators way below cost, with the specific intention of making the field as a whole dependent on their products. This is well known and pretty explicit. If professors and students had to pay the same costs as private enterprise for esri products the demand for their products would plummet. This is their business strategy and it’s well known and more or less undisputed.

Whether or not they are a good company that provides quality, unparalleled products is not a point I’m contending. They are not competing on that alone. That’s my point.
Hahaha, that's rough! :-)

I'll tell you one thing: "What the hell does this actually do?!" is extremely spot on! I am close to amazed to how hard it is to explain this library. It really does provide value, but it is evidently exceptionally hard to explain.

I first and foremost believe that this is due to the massive prevalence of sync REST/RPC style coding, and that messaging is only pulled up as a solution when you get massive influxes of e.g. inbound reports - where you actually want the queue aspect of a message broker. Not the async-ness.

I've tried to lay this out multiple times, e.g. here: https://mats3.io/docs/message-oriented-rpc/, and in the link for this post itself.
Games are this interesting medium of art where they're really not easily replicated, but very easy duplicated. There's practically no equivalent to a cover for a song that exists for a game. You can distribute a ROM, maybe swap some assets, but the code only exists in the binary it was compiled to. It was only up until recently (with decompilations) that a game was effectively set in stone unless it was open-sourced.

I don't know. I think it's silly for decades-old-games to run into licensing issues when trying to go open source. The tech is effectively obsolete except in the instance of that specific game.
Or gcp or other Google products. They technically supports it by appending different authuser query params, but whenever you click something it's bound to choose the wrong one.
This site basically says nothing except "sign up".
On the other hand, Elizabeth Warren, the apotheosis of the elite institutional left you're talking about, ran for president on a platform of getting workers onto boards, and got absolutely crushed.

It's possible that race simply has more charge than class does, regardless of the axiomatic arguments people have for why it should be the other way around.
Shooting down a spy satellite would be a huge escalation, an act of war. The balloon/objects were shot down in US/Canada airspace. Shooting down unauthorized aircraft is allowed by international law. China also hasn't claimed the later two objects.

Space is regarded similarly to international waters. Spy satellites are free to overfly countries.
I've been using this for a few years now and love it. I wish for two things.

1) i wish there was a way to automatically delete cookies/cache/history from specific containers every time. My personal container needs cookies and logins saved. My other containers don't need persistent cookies.

2) I've always wished for protonvpn to apply to only specific containers. Reading this now though, I see firefox's VPN does that so that's very cool, I might need to look into their vpn.
There is also FlightGear[0] which is FOSS[1].

I cannot judge how realistic its physics engine is, but it is marketed as a ‘professional’ flight simulator.

I don’t think it’s “common” and certainly it’s not normal.
You laugh, but there is a certification very similar to this, except it isn’t a parody, and requires you to make sure all your suppliers have the certification.

One give away that a company is certified is that it forces them to block merging of all unreviewed pull requests (including ones that were revised after last review).
I had to upgrade because the battery couldn't hold a charge and the two replacements I bought were worse than the original.
Public game servers are always going to be a target for hackers. Eventually libraries need updated and patched or logic exploits are discovered in the game. There is no such thing as perpetual in the computer security industry.

Of course the self hosted versus company hosted equation is much different here. If the game publisher eventually just offered the server software for self hosting and freed themselves from the management burden it in theory would be much cheaper. But likely they've boxed themselves in with license deals that make this difficult.
I don’t know how to “imagine someone at the 50th percentile of intelligence”. Is this some second-order joke about how 90% of people consider themselves above average intelligence, including (most likely) the person who is asked to imagine? (This percentage is completely made up.)
Yes, and I'd like to use more than one simultaneously.
> I don't think almost anyone in this thread, including the person you are replying to, has any issues with 40 year olds doing whatever they want to with their own body.

> Of course what compounds these ethical concerns is that in these cases the subjects are children. On the whole this takes the acts from merely questionable or wrong-headed to monstrous.

FROM wrong-headed TO monstrous. Sounds like they have a pretty negative and judgmental opinion regardless if it’s an adult, that just intensifies when children are involved. So yeah, I do think GP has issues with said 40 year olds. How many minors are getting vasectomies anyway? How it is comparable to a gender transition except in the most vague and useless ways?

> You are fighting windmills here. At no point had anyone in this chain of comments exerted any moral judgement against people transitioning or even suggested that it was sinful.

Not even talking about people transitioning . Why the fuck is this guy comparing it to vasectomies and obesity in the first place.
Yeah, these estimates blew me away. https://gencourt.state.nh.us/lsr_search/billText.aspx?id=188...

I guess there are all kinds of aspects of the government I'm not even aware of, but still... Everything I see is always browser-based with maybe some PDFs. What even is "NH FIRST (statewide ERP)"? Why does the general public interact with an ERP at all? I'm assuming this bill means that individuals should not be compelled to use proprietary software, but if it includes businesses also then the price tag makes more sense.
> Call of Duty, etc are just incremental releases they have more time to polish the same crap.

Unfortunately, as this year's CoD release has shown, they can't even do incremental updates correctly anymore. They've broken major parts of the game, removed key features (like leaderboards), and taken months to release content.
Experience is still lacking compared to Chrome profiles. Chrome profiles are so much better UX wise than any other solution, especially the color coding of the window.
> making a change is likelier to be wrong than right.

This agrees with the slightly-neutral theory of evolution. A given mutation is more likely to break something a little bit than improve that something a little bit.
Apples to oranges. The Mouse is protected by copyright; GPL-ed software is protected by copyleft. When you distribute copyleft software, you're explicitly granting rights to your downstream users. You can't just decide one day to retroactively change the terms.

> And for those who undoubtly miss to understand the issue ...

Clearly, you misunderstand the issue. Neo4j specifically told people to modify their recipe however they please as long as the license is respected. Yes, this is the very license that allows this. It's a completely different (and undefendable) issue that they did so by committing the legal equivalent of copying code from Stack overflow and not even reading it. The law doesn't work like code does and you can't just claim, "Sorry, there was a bug. You will be forced to download a software update." when it comes to copyrights and contracts.
Haha, it's cool. I once had a problem where I needed to scrape a bunch of sites at once, and ended up using it as a benchmark for threads vs asyncio. The overhead with threads was high even when using a handful of threads, and quickly hit a plateau after scaling to 4-8 threads on a 16 core machine. I was a big fan of the concurrent.futures executor model and generally thought it was good performance anyway, but figured I'd try to implement it in asyncio, and rate limited both for a fairer comparison. It was so shockingly fast that it was the last project I reached for threads again with on Python. I can't say that it was an equitable comparison, but it certainly left an impression on me.
Unintuitively, you want to have no default set for that domain, and you want to open an empty tab of that container type (by long clicking the new tab button or clicking the container addon button itself to get a list). Once you have a container open, middle-clicking the new tab button will open an empty tab in that container.

I agree that the UX is horrendous. Most of that is a byproduct of implementing it as an addon instead of a feature.
At which point I will have gotten many years out of it and will stick an Apple TV on it like the rest of my TVs. Meh?
I think this only happens if you use the "Always open this site in container" function.

I use MACs with a bunch of different AWS accounts for work, and the only papercut is having to right-click my bookmarks and choosing which container to open the console in (as opposed to having MACs integrated with bookmarks themselves)
Maybe they had no idea that was a thing. A super advanced species that either never considered it or was phased out so long ago the knowledge was lost. They’re just up there watching and freaking out a bit.
What's the garbage-collection story? One gc per .so? Or is there some mechanism to share a gc instance between several .so compiled by go?
I enjoy these parodies very much, but on a deeper level, we need a good analysis of why this keeps happening. We've had many movements that have aimed for simplicity and commonsense and ended up a bureaucratic nightmare. Is there a way to actually achieve simplicity and commonsense?
> Arguably you can do both, if you let the community sustain the old thing (like what Carmack did with Quake).

For games like Quake 3 it was quite open before it was old. The game was community mod'able during its prime. You had mods like OSP being "the" mod for competitive game play (1v1 DM, Team DM and CTF). It being fully open sourced later on was icing on the cake.

Wikipedia said it sold 319,970 copies for about $15 million[0]. It was a 1 time purchase game for like $50 at release. It took 1.5 years to make with a team of 9. Not a bad turn out for a single purchase and open game with a self hostable server component. Keep in mind that was 20 years ago when gaming was way less popular.

Then may I ask after a decade of this behavior, why have we not seen a successful lawsuit against said megacorporations? At least in US law I don't think there is a chance of the consumer winning in our current legal environment.

I've been going through a bunch of old games recently for a project involving a regular LAN party some friends and I hold. If I can make a suggestion, bundle as much documentation as you can with the dedicated server.

It's infuriating how many times I've run into games where the potential commands/switches have been documented online across 30 websites, but every site is incomplete. Tons of games don't even document how to set the listen address or port, or even what runtimes might be needed in order to run.
Couldn’t you do travel time bands with postgis? I think so, but if it’s not possible please explain why.
Carmack has had a material role in advancing VR gaming tech even recently.

Just one example is that he petitioned Samsung to remove the requirement for triple-buffering on their screens, to allow for better latency and in-game experience.

Samsung declined, so he hacked apart his phone to make a proof-of-concept prototype of the screen without the triple-buffering. He demoed this to Samsung, and they agreed to make the change because the experience was so much better.

It's tough to say "what game has Carmack had an impact on lately", because the scope of his role has was to impact the ecosystem of games and VR as a whole.

You don't see pushback on Joe Biden along the lines of "But what has he done for Scranton lately?", because the role of president encompasses a larger scope.

Similarly, the role of John Carmack has been larger in scope than improving one game at a time (and has been for a while).
I struggled to understand the coordinate system, probably because he puts the ailerons in front of the wings!
Issue seems to be resolved now: https://status.appbeat.io/
I would say that Newton had an insight unprecedented in the history of science: that phenomena as seemingly unrelated as the fall of an apple from a tree and the motion of the moon and planets are caused by the same physical laws.

Leonardo does not show any hint of even thinking about this.
And let’s not pretend that Doom and Quake didn’t have several point releases after the fact. And that the team at id didn’t pull all-nighters to ship the games.

Those games are far simpler (by at least an order of magnitude, maybe two or three) than most of the modern AAA titles.

What was the last AAA game Carmack shipped? Rage? Hardly a smashing success, even if it was technically impressive.

I have a huge amount of respect for Carmack’s skills and work ethic and track record, but I wonder if he really has a good handle on the sheer amount of work that goes into a modern game. With often dozens of programmers, and hundreds or thousands of contributors, the coordination overhead is just massive. I think that’s why overall quality control is harder to maintain.
To anyone interested in broadening their knowledge of programming languages, I suggest they should also learn languages from non-imperative paradigms.

In particular, functional languages (Haskell, Ocaml etc) and array-based languages (J, q/kdb or one of the many free clones out there).

Seeing what is capable in those paradigms is very eye opening.
Why not? That data would still be transmitted, it would just take a little longer to receive..
You absolutely can.
Open a new tab of containerA and login.
Open a new tab of containerB and login with a different account.
I think there's an option somewhere that allows you to select "always open [website] in [container]" which might be triggering that popup.
I combine containers with profiles to achieve this...
I have totally separate profiles for:
'temp' (delete everything on close)
'shopping' (containers for my common stores)
'finance' (containers for banks, etc)

Gives a lot of flexibility, and I'm a lot less nervous opening stuff in 'temp' session when I know everything else is safely in totally different profiles/directories.
Apple going to have a hard time getting people with M1 macs to upgrade any time soon.
What you want is the Temporary Containers addon: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-GB/firefox/addon/temporary-con...

It will let you open containers that trash cookies on close. You can also set certain URL's to always open in a tmp container which is useful for sites that only let you read x amount of article per month.
As we've seen with our space probes, its difficult enough to land something on another planet and have it survive, nevermind equipping it with any offensive or defensive capabilities. Maybe these aliens are in the same place. They can get the balloon here, but just barely, and they're watching in dismay as their work get dismantled.

It's not necessarily about the plane structurally handling it, but that if it occurs shortly after takeoff, there isn't much altitude to pull out of a steep dive before crashing.

The salient point of this post is how close the plane came (withing a few hundred feet) of impacting the ground.
Firefox does profiles too.
To be fair, human beings have been to space as well and routinely get trounced by something as primitive as a mosquito bite.

Maybe the UFOs were built to withstand alpha-gamma-laser-magma-pulse rays, not our primitive projectile based weaponry!
This is also very true for startups! 2-people teams can iterate and learn so quickly that at some point they are able to outcompete (or come very close to) existing market leaders (e.g., Figma/Adobe, Linear/Asana, Pulley/Carta). So the y-intercept (or the starting point) turns out to not matter much if the slope (growth and learning) is high!
I figure we're hearing about it to quell any fear or paranoia about domestic airspace being entered now that it's a well-known thing.
The cylindrical description fits what could be hung from a balloon, however.
I had the same CPU from 2019 until a few weeks ago. Upgraded to a 5700X (electricity is expensive around here, so the lower wattage parts are appealing); with more aggressive memory timing got about 20% improvement in video encoding (main cpu-bound task I do regularly). With selling the 3700X net cost for upgrade was around $100- not a bad deal, even though I stuck with the stock cooler! This is after I have also doubled the RAM from the original build to 32G for ~$60 last October. I expect to get another 3-4 years of of this AM4/DDR4 rig before big overhaul.

Decades ago I did similar things, but the cadence was much faster (annual sometimes); my conclusion, like that of many others, is that PCs are usable for much longer these days. A net positive I believe.
