> That hasn't been true since the printing press and particularly the invention of the nation state.

I disagree. There's not much success in the state forming its citizens, nor with the media. Take Germany for example. Germany's public broadcaster is deeply progressive on all social issues, and has a funding of €8bn per year. Most of Germany's private print media is similarly progressive. They've been pushing hard on genderized speech for years, yet the population rejects it continuously. If a primary objective isn't fulfilled with near-endless budgets, the tool seems to just not work for the task at hand.

> If you find these new limits on your speech onerous but not the old ones, then your gripe is with the flavor of the speech which might get you fired not the fact that speech exists which might get you fired.

These new speech rules are strongly being pushed, from state/quasi-state institutions (e.g. universities), are being pushed into legislation and aren't based on the population's norms (or there wouldn't be any opposition).

There's a difference between going into a room, behaving a certain way and the group rejecting your behavior, and going into a room, behaving a certain way and having one person pull a gun and forcing the group to reject you. The former is an organic group-response based on their shared values, it can change over time. The latter is what the speech-crusaders are trying to do.

Your error is that as seen by the sky high and increasing obesity rates, for example, most people are not as motivated (due to personality or just environment), and I'm quite sure work from home will cause obesity to spike in 5-10 years (there's a bit of lag to get the numbers).

At least the commute was forcing a lot of these people to move around.

And before you start with gyms and such, remember that New Year's resolutions prompt a huge amount of people to register at gyms but a crazy number, something like 80-90% drop out by March.

The math and physics and engineering behind bicycles is so cool. Such a "simple" device, but so many interesting things to dive into. I wrote my thesis on spoke patterns for the wheels [0]. Another cool thing is how the steering of a bicycle works. You don't really turn the way you want to, you actually turn the other way first to initiate so the bike moves from under you, and you then lean the other way to actually turn. This is why, if you're for instance biking close to a curb and want to get away from it, you really can't and it feels like the curb is "sucking" you closer and closer. Since it "feels" wrong to first turn towards it, but without doing that you actually can't get away from it.

An even better way to do this is to host your site on Cloudflare Pages. It's completely free, and can be deployed from GitHub or you can upload a ZIP of the HTML pages of your site.

It's served via a CDN, so it's always really quick to load.

There's literally no cost to it for static sites.

You could create a git repository for your HTML site. Then, edit the HTML using VS Code. Every time you push to your repository, your site will get updated almost instantly.

All you have to pay for or worry about is domain name.

If you use a web host like Hostgator, your site will get banned when it gets a lot of traffic. Cloudflare has no such limits whether you get 10 visitors a day or 10k a day...
The tools you work with multiple hours per day and earn a living with should not be "good enough", they should be "best in class". And is a computer that is struggling to scroll in a simple web thing good enough? It's not good enough for your average user who wants to do light web browsing in Chrome, so why would it be good for a developer?

A few years ago I had some pretty bad issues with my hands, mostly caused by using my thumb to reach for the Alt key. My employer bought me some foot pedals that I ended up binding to alt and capslock (since I used my capslock key for ctrl + esc). It actually works pretty great :).

You can use ‘as’ to cast unknown to any type. This is extra typing but it does signify to other developers that you’re calling a function on an unverified object, which I believe makes the code more maintainable in the long run.

Considering the abysmal quality of USB-C cables you can buy online today
I am quite happy that somebody works on improving the situation.
I think the principal reason for requiring a pipe is so that splice only has to understand N combinations of source/sink pairs, rather than N^2 combinations. Some of the mechanics, like page borrowing and gifting, follow naturally and deliberately from using the pipe as a pivot.

I think the concept remains relatively elegant in the Unix tradition (90+% value by exposing an extremely simple kernel primitive to user space), especially as compared to sendfile, but also io_uring. splice falls apart for non-blocking I/O, though. And at least sendfile has an offset parameter for block-like objects (e.g. files).

io_uring solves all of this by implementing a Go-like work scheduler in the kernel and then exposing a command queue to user space. (Both Go and io_uring use a pool of worker threads that can perform synchronous blocking task, but opportunistically make use of readiness polling or asynchronous completion for specific source/sink objects to minimize the number of active worker threads.) That's elegant in its own way, but it's totally at odds with the traditional Unix kernel/user space architecture.

The dutch postal service is honestly kinda impressive with this sort of thing. I'm pretty sure they keep a name-address database or some such, because mis-addressing a letter will still almost always get delivered correctly based on the name.

IIRC it's fairly recently they stopped delivering to non-postal addresses. i.e. until recently you could address something to "The green house next to the church" and it'd get there.
Even so, you're talking about 1 tragic event every 6 months at most, on average (except for wartime).

Not a slew of garbage about 10000 tragic events happening each day.
> You don’t get to decide if another human’s feelings are valid or not.

Consider for a moment the borderline[0], they can experience intense feelings that have no basis in fact and often file false reports with authorities based on those feelings. They can act out with sadness or anger due to a perceived slight that the mentally well wouldn't consider. Example: being a few minutes late to return a phone call, or even on time can result in threats of suicide.

Then consider someone with a eating disorder, they may feel obese while being objectively underweight.

Consider the paranoid that feels they are being gang stalked [1].

Feelings aren't always valid. Sometimes validating improper feelings is harmful to the person with them.

Yes, I don't know what to say. I just want to emphasize what you say, because it's apparently an alien concept to many people. Tools and process inform the art. How could it not be that way, really?

I'm well aware of the existence of powershell and CMD, such things are not a real luxury when you're limited to whatever Windows provides you with as utilities as opposed to the astonishingly wide plethora of commandline utilities available else where (where everything is a file and is easy to read, parse, filter, save-).

Windows 2012r2 came with Powershell 4.0, which I'm sure you'll agree was limited in ways that bash is not, since bash is a collection of utilities and doesn't require deep integration with the platform to function.

For example in your example above you use 'Export-Csv', but that was introduced in Powershell 7.0

Am I saying that it's not possible? Not really, powershell can probably do everything I need it to, but it's not as simple as `ssh user@host` and I'm talking in a way that feels native to the system. It requires a paradigm shift in thinking that most of our developers didn't embrace and discoverability is just lower there anyway.

Claiming that winrm is better than SSH is... just the most absurd thing I've heard this year.

The main reason that I got annoyed with Windows though is not the eggregious license cost- it wasn't that it used an enormous amount of resources- the documentation was really nice!

It was that my iteration times on toying with things went from 5 minutes to 25 minutes in the minimum, that doing any kind of exploratory work meant near certainty that I'd be RDP'ing.

This is not a "I hate windows" rant, but the defensive position you have taken here is frankly unpaletable. Windows has it's strengths, and perhaps I am not the person to charter a course to a fantastically well designed "Windows-centric" solution to problems -- but fuck, it worked honestly and it worked better than any of the Windows admins in Ubi could have mustered. Maybe that's a statement about the general competence of windows admins or just the ones at Ubi, I don't really know.

But Windows is a poor fit for dynamic server workloads such as those. The only reason it was chosen was because the game was developed on Windows and against Windows APIs - some of which were even better than Linux ones at the time, like IOCompletionPorts, which I have extolled virtues upon - rewriting the software to work on Linux would have been a hugely time intensive process. That decision cost Ubisoft literally millions of euroes and was a decision that was later reversed- after I left.

So I am not the blame for that.

>"Throw out the idea is gender" sounds like you have a very specific view of trans people as gender abolitionists.

I am not describing myself. I just understand the position of people that feel that way and don't like to just dismiss them as bigots as most seem to.

These people are definitely making a slippery slope argument but they also feel like they're already halfway down the slope. They aren't out there seeing an A and concerned about B, they see it as A, B, C, D, E then F and wonder when G will come.

The trans sports thing is F. They're more worried about G, H and I.

>Also, I'd like to point out that the major parts in high end athlete performance are already down to "unfair accidents of birth", even if you don't introduce gender to the issue. A tall person will always have an edge playing basketball.

End of 2022 we bought 50 different certified(!) USB-C cables off of Amazon.
We needed about 800 for our test farm, and did thorough tests before buying.
24x7@50w with 1h/day@80w (we had planned on 100w, but gave up on that fast).

3 were good enough for safe use with 20V@3A.
47 were sub standard.
We had to unplug 9 during our testing, as they started to melt.
One of them started to smoke after 60 seconds.

USB-IF certification means nothing, as everybody can just buy it, or fake it.

With EPR 240W incoming I am getting seriously afraid for friends & family.

Both metaphors seem apt. One is leaning towards how a product makes a person feel when using it, one is about what the product offers.

ok. guys? we are (at the extreme) talking about a texteditor here. there is no reason for source code tooling to utilize GPU and if you think otherwise, i have no reason to continue to talk to you :D good day

oh and one more thing:

i assure you, this computer is more than good enough for browsing websites and do whatever you would do as a regular user... idk how you came to the conclusion it was otherwise.

it's not even the case that vscode makes anything slow here, there is no ditch in performance, everything is smooth as butter, i simply report the GPU spiking up to 30% whenever i make vscode scroll text.

are you telling me this is acceptable when i can just as well use a mightier software tool that doesnt utilize the gpu at all?

on another note: how is it be acceptable to anybody to poop a browser into every other new app? element, discord, vscode, you name it, it has electron or whatever in it. i prefer versatile tools over simple ones just like the next person, but i know for a fact: we can have that without all the blingblong.
