"burden they bear protecting the rest of the world's democracies"

As an Australian, that's a pretty glowing interpretation of the US intervening where they aren't wanted or needed

Was the US protecting 'democracy' when they annexed Hawaii, or how they've treated Cuba? Or Vietnam or South America or Iraq or any litany of other countries

Hell. They helped depose Gough Whitlam because he dared threaten to nationalize our mines ala Norway, not to mention that worthless spying ring that is Pine Gap

I still use lol to mean "I would've laughed if this was an audio conversation", although of course it does mean anything from a slight giggle to more intense laughter.
I’d argue I’m fairly bilingual and chose here to speak lenglish, or at least mix the two, because the vocabularies don’t overlap 1:1. (And because I don’t speak either language with enough conviction or precision, both tribes tend to identify me as belonging to and speaking the other.)

I’d also argue lenglish has a much greater academic focus on labeling, categorizing, and identifying things, and has more words to describe more things, where renglish does not care and sticks to traditional meanings of words and ignores differentiations it finds irrelevant, trivial, or nonsensical.

Because my example of something hard to translate in the other direction didn’t feel as politically correct, I chilled and withheld it. Or at least thought the current climate would be more frowning of such an example. But here it goes.

How would you translate this from lenglish to renglish? “Lesbian Trans-woman”. A lenglish speaker could parse and expand that to mean “A woman born with a penis, who identifies as lesbian” but a renglish speaker would argue “a straight man.” Then you start getting into descriptions being pejoratives in one language but celebrated in another.

The languages have two very different meanings of man. On top of that, they might have a phrase like “straight white male” that means roughly the same thing, but in one means victim and the other perpetrator.

If you choose to localize the translations do you keep or swap mean connotations for happy ones? Are translating and localizing two distinct processes than need to be toggled on and off independently, depending on intent?

The irony is that the most promoted company on Facebook isn't paying for those ads with sponsorship.

I just opened Facebook and here's the top "suggested post". Of course it's a "news" story, which is itself just a repost of someone's Tiktok video. The Tiktok logo is prominently displayed in the tumbnail.

https://imgur.com/a/YJoiR4A

In between all that content, is Facebook Reels. Most promoted Reels are just reposts from Tiktok. There was literally a "Content Creator" named "It's gone viral on Tiktok!" that for a while was the most commonly promoted Facebook reel I would see.

Edit: here's a screenshot of Reels: https://imgur.com/a/OhVvbSf

My personal trainer told me the same- you won't gain flexibility by "forcing" the stretch, only by stretching just beyond where the muscle wants to stop, holding it there for around 30 seconds (and you should feel a "release"), and repeating the next day.
People take a lot of time off when they work from home. I am as guilty of this as anyone. People tend to focus more on work while they are in an office. Also, it is much easier for managers to organize the work when the people being organized are within line-of-site. The pattern I've seen emerge at New York City startups is:

1. the leadership and most important employees meet at the office 3 to 4 days a week.

2. less important employees are allowed to work from home

The workers in group 2 are in direct competition with outsourcing firms in India, Vietnam, Brazil, etc. If you are just an average frontend programmer, and allowed to work from home, there is a good chance that your work can be sent overseas. So workers in this group are seeing more downward pressure on their wages, and have a more precarious position.
I was going to note that developer betas already required being part of Apple's Developer Program, but here's the crucial bit from TFA:

> Until now, anyone could easily install iOS developer betas for free by downloading the profiles from websites such as BetaProfiles.dev.

For some reason, I'd previously assumed these profiles were tied to Apple IDs.
Have you tried CotEditor?
> Running a device way outside its specified temperature range may appear to work fine at first but lead to premature failure or subtle problems that aren't as easy for an end user to spot.

The point was that operating hardware outside of its limits might work for me but not for you, and it might suddenly break for seemingly no reason later. But with software, if I can run Windows 11 without a TPM, then you'll definitely be able to, and there's nothing to wear out or change over time that could break that other than an update.
There has been a lot of discussion about how the crypto doesn't work. I have some quibbles about the Go.

Don't put a mutex in your io.Reader. It is assumed that, unless mentioned in the documentation, it is not safe to use anything in Go from multiple goroutines. If someone wants to make the reader synchronous for use among multiple goroutines, they can do so themselves. But it's so rare that it's unlikely anyone would want this.

read/write mutexes typically perform worse than a plain mutex. You pay a performance cost to prevent readers and writers from starving each other; if you don't care (and this code doesn't), use a Mutex. https://zephyrtronium.github.io/articles/rwmutex.html

Finally, it's fine to embed the mutex value directly in your struct if your methods take pointer receivers. &MyThing{Mutex: new(sync.Mutex)} is pretty weird to see. If the mutex were included as its value, then the zero value of MyThing is ready to use; &MyThing{} has a new mutex in it. (You can't copy the value of &MyThing either way; a correct copy requires holding the mutex. The reason to embed a *sync.Mutex instead of a sync.Mutex is so that you can copy the containing type, but that is actually unsafe. You grab a pointer to the wrong Mutex in your copy, and you also copy data protected by the mutex without holding it. So your methods MUST have a pointer receiver either way, and thus the indirection to *sync.Mutex is unnecessary.)
Why do we have to go completely for or against something. There are pros and cons to both. Situations where one trumps the other. Why can’t we have both?

> What in office employees don’t do is deliver more value per minute

Isn’t this contextual?

> They spend time commuting

Also this. Commute can be productive especially in cities where people can safely cycle to the office.

> They suffer constant distractions.

Lots of the folks I meet in the office currently, have more distractions at home.

> They experience physical discomfort in an environment they cannot control.

“home” is not the opposite for many people.
Derek Sivers had a good comment on this recently on a podcast (I can't remember which, perhaps Tim Ferris).

Derek was describing Trent Resnor of Nine Inch Nails who, as a musician, played in multiple bands of different styles. Rock, Jazz, Industrial, Dance, etc.

After some time, Nine Inch Nails (Industrial genre according to Sivers), was the one that got the most attention, and so Resnor focused on that one.

This is somewhat similar to starting a start-up. Don't get married to your idea, or potentially even market. Make a few small bets if you can, and see what people are attracted to, and then put more effort into that.

Resnor "quit" the bands that weren't successful, and put the effort into the one that had the best opportunity.

At the very, very lowest prices that Ariane 5 ever offered, they were close to SpaceX in only one specific very hard to find setup. They needed 2 Geo sats that wanted to launch at the same time and likely only the cheaper of those two actually had a price comparable to SpaceX.

Ariane was lucky that space launches were contracted so many years in advanced in the past. They had many years of contracts already lined when SpaceX was only just scaling and had huge backlogs.

Even by 2014 it was totally clearly to literally everybody in space, that Ariane 5 had to go. It had no future, even with all possible help, ESA and national launches and insentient launches from EU firms it cost would wildly spiral out of control.

That said, Ariane 6 is only a slight incremental improvement (in reality its mostly upgrades that were already planned for Ariane 5 anyway). It was designed to compete with SpaceX as it was in 2014.

Hence why European space people are already planning and pushing for more money to build a next generation rocket. Despite Ariane 6 being a new rocket then Falcon 9, its already outdated.

However Europe (and everybody else) was incredibly lucky that Amazon decided to compete with Starlink and to do so they had to basically buy every single available heavy lift rocket launch for the next half decade. Lucky for them nobody everybody outside of SpaceX sucks, so nobody sucks. Ariane 6 can compete with ULA even when they can't compete with SpaceX.

> And the only real customer so far for cheap, low orbit launches using re-usable rockets is SpaceX itself for Starlink.

Its kind of funny when people claim things that are so easy to verify to be false:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Falcon_9_and_Falcon_He...

SpaceX has already flown 2 commercial flights to low orbit this just year and its February. And their re-usability is not just for low orbit, they reuse the rockets if the go to GEO as well.

Ariane 5 flight rate was never more then 7 a year, SpaceX is planning more then 10 purely commercial LEO, MEO and SSO missions just in the next few months.

- Transporter-6

- OneWeb Flight #16

- OneWeb #17

- O3b mPOWER

- WorldView Legion 1 & 2

- O3b mPOWER 5 & 6

- Transporter-7

- SARah 2 & 3

- Ax-2

I'm sick of doing this, you get my point. Ax-2 is planned for May. You can continue down the list for the rest of the year.

So your statement is almost hilariously wrong, and totally wrong.

The problem is just that SpaceX is launching so often and so many Starlinks that people get confused by it in comparison to what was normal the last 20 years.

Its seems you have formed your opinion based on a bunch of Arianespace propaganda. The have been focused on spreading a a bunch of false narrative the last 5-10 years.
I guess it would be helpful to have a real example of the kind of thing you object to (in the case of gay characters). I'm having trouble understanding what it would look like in the context of an actual narrative, as I don't think I've ever come across anything like it myself.
So Google owns the IP but doesn't support the maintainers that do all the work and keep it running. They take the credit, the value of the brand and do nothing.

Can't the maintainers do a fork, continue their work with a new name and then maybe start a foundation or something to attract money and support it? Fastlane is a very mission critical piece of software for many companies, I'm sure some of them would support it if it's an indie project and not a Google property.

No, it isn’t. The fact that you can make a false claim in copyright law and cause damage is not an indictment of the system of copyright.
pretty cool - how is the accuracy?
It's a nice write up. but as much as I love whole-drive filesystems, in this case I would have used a partition table and used a fixed partition for the swap space. Not only is it (slightly) more efficient, it's also simpler than using a btrfs subvolume and remembering to +C the swapfile.

I think the general approach is very good and could probably be used for the VisionFive 2 RISC-V SBC as well.
Any time we do a grocery store / Costco chicken, I'll just throw all the bones into a pot with water, salt, and some carrot, celery and onions (or powder). I'll let it simmer for a few hours, and turn it off an hour before I plan to go to bed so it cools off before I put it in the fridge. It's really easy, and can be turned into delicious soup later in the week.
I think it becomes troublesome when the data is confidential and the company is private. Do we just not talk about anything when we don’t have hard data?

On the other hand, they are reporting a study that they may have even paid for and don’t actually share the details of the study. So I certainly see your point.

On the other other hand, I think the “soft” signals like Elon asking people to hit the like button for ads, or the various reports of orgs pulling their ad campaigns suggests that there is general distress. Which is what’s on my mind when I think it’s more than a “narrative,” which I tend to interpret as hand wavy “media bias” used to explain away anything that doesn’t support one’s own narrative.
That’s true, however, Google also “lies” to you, and ChatGPT is quite good despite it’s not made for answering with facts specifically. It seems to me that it’s not worse averagely than Stackoverflow answers. Usually the right answer is something like what it gives, and after that a simple Google search usually get me the exact answer. This is good because Google can be terrible for example with Jakarta EE problems, but ChatGPT with some searching after that is waaay better.
As to your question, UBI.

Artists are the ones now experiencing what the Luddites did. Smashing the looms didn't stop more looms from being built. Also, now the average person can afford fabric because of the technology.

Simply put as we move into a world where most needs can be provided by technology keeping up the 'winner take all' method of capitalism so many subscribe to isn't going to work.
Unfortunately it doesn't have ECC, and uses a buggy file system BTRFS.

I'm still not convinced that self hosting is cheaper though.

Where I live, both the electric grid and Fibre connections are unreliable, and the ISP charges about $3/month for a static IP. Assuming 2.5W for a RPi, it takes 1.8kWh a month, costing around $0.25 for electricity. This also has the downside of using residential IPs, having to deal with CGNAT/NAT if the ISP has no static IPs, exposing your home IP, slow disk speeds in SBCs, etc.

Services like Hetzner have private servers for almost the same amount, which gives you faster storage, server IP addresses (for email reputation), DDoS protection, and a whole lot more to sweeten the deal.

The only thing I self host today is a script that runs on my OpenWRT router, that uploads the probed data from my inverter and BMS to monitor my PV setup. I look forward to get rid of it too, once I get better BMS/Inverter.
It's the correct word because you loose information when this happens: the size of the array is 'lost' (for 'fixed' arrays, VLA don't have sizes known by the compiler).

it wouldn’t have been fine—they didn’t realize the configuration mistake until their database had been dropped. there are plenty of scenarios that could have led to the exact same outcome. i’d argue it would have been a matter of time.

the problem is that it was possible to accidentally expose their credential-less db to the internet _at all_ and that they had no monitoring or tools in place to detect the misconfiguration. that’s a design flaw, and again, not a docker-specific problem.

I tried an MX Master 3 and 2S, I also have the MX Ergo trackball mouse and the Logitech vertical mouse. The vertical mouse is what I ended up with, but for years I would switch mice, switch between several mice within a day, switch hands - and they were all half-measures that just kind of delayed the "degeneration". The issue, it would seem, was not the mouse or overusing the mouse. The issue seems to have come from my shoulder area (Thoracic Outlet Syndrome aka TOS / Pec. Minor Syndrome), which a vertical mouse will uniquely address as it allows your shoulder to be less interiorly-rotated than a standard mouse, even a trackball mouse that is not vertical.

I remember reading a Medium article a while ago about a software engineer who described how he addressed his "RSI", which I suspect was just TOS - he switched to an ergonomic keyboard and vertical mouse, which over a period of MANY MONTHS more or less resolved his RSI. He talked about how he still has to be careful and take breaks often. I really think, especially considering his age (20s), he could have kept the mouse and keyboard he had, if he just engaged in posture-correcting shoulder stretches and strength exercises.

Google never removed "don't be evil", but that's a super common urban legend, because Gizmodo ran an (incorrect) story headlined "Google Removes 'Don't Be Evil' Clause From Its Code of Conduct". You can just go look at their code of conduct and see that this is false.

(I don't care, and don't think "don't be evil" really ever meant much, but urban legends drive me a little batty.)

Sure, but the type of "language" that includes HTML and C++ is very different from the type of "language" that includes English and French. Chomsky's point is that there's something special about human brains that makes it very easy for them to learn English and French, even with very sparse and poorly-defined inputs, but doesn't necessarily help them learn to produce other types of structured sequences. For example, a baby raised next to a forest will effortlessly learn to speak their parents' native language (you couldn't stop them from doing that!) but won't learn to produce the birdsong they hear coming from the forest. This indicates that there's something special about our brains that leads us to produce English and not birdsong.

Similarly, it's true that some humans can, with lots of cognitive effort, produce HTML and C++, but some can't. Even the ones that can don't do it the same way that they produce English or French.
So, maintainers can just fork it under different name?

Agreed. Didn't intend to say defense attorneys should feel guilty (but some do feel guility, regardless), but that the reputation activity is not even related to the actual legal case.

Moreover, feeling a duty to punish or extend the punishment for someone beyond the legal system reminds me of Monty Python stoning scene.
I did actual OT only once and that was when a piece of my code did some havoc in production. Even though I agreed to OT because I felt responsible I should have just ignored it; no one told me that a group of people is going to push the code during the long weekend, no one told me that I should be on standby and my request for code review has been ignored. The boss actually refused to give me a day off for this whole ordeal (a law in my country; if they call you in on your day off they're obligated to give you a whole day off no matter whether you worked one hour or eight hours. If I wanted to make it right I'd have to take it to the court so I just decided to find a better employer instead.
