We’re creating a new global average standard of living with disastrous consequences.

The poor areas rapidly gain wealth but at great cost to the environment and the whole thing is dependent on a never-ending fire hose of capital and tech transfers from the “wealthy” areas.

The wealthy areas, already unable to offer many citizens the ability to raise a family, are desperately engaging in extreme financialization, ludicrous political distractions, and “make work” shell games just to present an increasingly unconvincing veneer that society is still functioning and fully worthy of participation.

Western civilization is the metaphorical Biblical statue from Daniel: After spending decades replacing the support structures with ever cheaper materials, we’re now finally in the “feet of iron and clay” stage, and it’s likely AI will complete the metaphor by representing the boulder that smashes into the weakened base and topples the entire statue.

I realize this all sounds hilariously alarmist, but I have yet to see a positive spin on the impact of AI that isn’t ultimately the same old decoupled Pete Peterson style nonsense of “it’s gud because worker productivity number goes up”: as if we don’t already have two generations of human beings that grew up in an age of massively increased productivity yet cannot afford a family nor a home to put them in - a state of existence that even some medieval serfs would pity.

My weirdly accelerationist hope is that AI advances quickly enough (and management stays short-sighted enough) to cause a meaningful political coalition to form between the already-marginalized blue collar workers and the newly disrupted paper-pusher/cubicle class.

>Utah bill gives parents full access to their children's online accounts, including posts and private messages

I see no problem with that.

Parents, as legal guardians, are legally liable for their childrens' actions. Parenting also necessitates having privileged knowledge of their childrens' circumstances and situations.

So no, I see no problem with parents having "full access to their children's online accounts". That is simply part of the duties and responsibilities as parents, and whether the parents exercise their authority is also their decision to make as they raise their children.
So it's the third of GPs options:

> achieving mystical realizations along the lines of zen koans

Except that there's really nothing mystical about zen koans, if mystical is meant in a derogatory way as vague mumbo-jumbo. Zen koans are trying to do the same thing as Wittgenstein is (according to the parent - I haven't read him): lead the thinker to recognise the limitations of language, and in particular its inability to fully express ideas about its own limitations. The response "mu" unasks the question, indicates that the concept has been understood but the question itself seen as nonsensical.

That's my understanding anyway. I haven't practised Rinzai Zen, the one that emphasises koans, but only Soto Zen, which mostly eschews philosophising in favour of just sitting quietly.

Let’s be honest, there is little benefits to take a compiler course in 2023 (best one is to satisfy curiosity).

1/ there isn’t much to know about parsing and any good compiler course won’t spend too much time on it anyway

2/ and 3/ these points are not really about compilers in general and more about C compilers. You can also learn that trivia independently.
Government lost the trust of an entire generation of people by trying to force them to do something against their will. What is best for the individual you is not often what is general greater good. It would be for the greater good if you went out and shared a bedroom with the next homeless person you see. It would probably be a terrible decision for you as the risk/reward ratio is probably pretty terrible.
Part of what makes the US great, is the fundamental principal that people are given the freedom to act in their own best interest, and that, on balance will produce the greater good for society as a whole.
Did people miscalculate the risk/reward by not taking the vaccine? For anyone under 40 the benefits are statistically insignificant for anyone without serious health problems to begin with. And this is why most people stopped at two shots, with time the obvious became apparent to even the ones that were scared and guilted into taking it.

>I would never live in a home built before 1978. Almost certainly that home is full of lead-based paint and asbestos.

We're closing in on 50 years past the 1979 lead-based paint cutoff - the vast majority of homes in my area, and I extrapolate that likely most areas, have been remediated. With asbestos - probably the worst issue in my area is that if you have asbestos shingles you want to remove they are stinking heavy and so cost a lot to dump. I live in a 1915 home that is a great example of houses in my area - has gone through multiple renovations in that time such that the guts are fundamentally new. Probably the biggest issue with these older homes is insulation, as unless you truly take them down to the studs, they are never going to be as airtight as modern homes.

In lieu of this, Nand2Tetris [1] is an absolutely great online, free course where one can go through all of a computer's abstractions - logic gates to an assembler to a bytecode compiler to a stack based virtual machine with an interpreter and an operating system with display, I/O, etc, building everything along the way yourself.

The hardware stuff is in a simulator of course, but that doesn't take away from the gold mine of revelations one gains from going through this course.

The community is great as well, so many people did amazing things like build entire ray tracers in their own computer. Although I stopped at a sudoku game, seeing all of that is so good.

> Which is why hoarding state management in PID 0 is a dumb idea.

Because the Unix process API is unreliable and unsafe ( http://catern.com/process.html ), managing processes is difficult to impossible in a general way under Unix systems including Linux. Linux gained some features to help with this, but for the longest time, PID 1 was the only process that could manage its child processes in a way that wasn't fraught with race conditions -- meaning systemd or something like it was the only way to have safe, effective process management because it tracked all that state in PID 1.

Blame Unix being broken, not systemd, for the problems systemd solves.

It’s true, regular non-iodized salt also seems generally preferable to me if the goal is to avoid potentially harmful chemical byproducts. I never looked into how they make sea salt, but without some kind of purification it’s going to have lots of stuff in it. And of course what gives Himalayan salt its color is impurities. I guess whether one should be concerned just depends on which impurities!

That's the implementation, not the format (which is very well designed for low computing power.) You're right that Adobe made it worse, however; when it was still called Macromedia Flash, the hardware of the time was more than enough to produce smooth animations and interactive games with it.

How does the Docker story compare to NPM who are also freely hosting a bunch if stuff, heavily downloaded and relying on some paid users but mostly free. And NPM has “competing” repositorys too. Could the same happen with NPM where they need to charge?

I'm not sure that is an error. Military spec chips a long time ago gave up on special processes/chips a while ago as it was self defeating at the end of the day. Most chips get a reliability economy of scale that you miss out on if you divorce yourself from the commercial market. For most of the other use cases where there isn't an of the shelf chip, an FPGA on a commercial (but high spec/reliability) process is better than a custom ASIC. Then there's only a small sliver left where you truly gain from very custom military processes.

That's why the DoD basically paid for that TSMC 5nm fab in Arizona; getting all of those chips destined for defense applications fabbed on US soil again.

k8s is good, but complex, and thus not fit for everyone and everything, but gets overused to death due to being the most popular choice, thus you have a lot of people that dislike it due to bad experience.
LTS is a dangerous concept, really, especially in the way Debian or Red Hat do it, that is, by freezing versions at a completely random point and then attempt to backport fixes.

This approach is outright dangerous, because in my experience a distro maintainer is often not as accustomed with the codebase as an upstream maintainer. I understand the need to keep versions stable, but I would rather use a real long term support version from an upstream maintainer than random patches from Red Hat.

That's why in my experience ironically rolling releases tend to be less finicky to use than long term support distros.

It seems they’re worried about peer to peer interactions.

When I first looked at this graph, I did not have much emotional reaction.

When you look closer, each unit on the axis represents 1 year of a person's income. Each line on that graph represents 2000 hours of life toiling for a basic living necessity.

>Do you think your moral authority is greater than the sum total of humans that have existed across all cultures?

Therefore, progress is wrong.
A very imperfect analogy:

Imagine alien scientists had studied humans, but only in prison, and then created a model of social behaviour around their observations of prison gangs with a lot of fights to establish hierarchies and who has preferential access to resources.

Only later they study humans outside prison and discover that actually humans - in this hypothetical scenario - are most often organised in farm households/families with a husband and wife leading the household, their children and in richer/bigger households maybe a few farmhands, maids and grandparents around.

They discover that the social patterns in extended families are very different from the patterns in prison gangs, children usually don’t fight their parents for the leadership role, sometimes the head of the household gets the nicest piece of meat, but sometimes in times when food is rare the youngest children are also fed first….

So the models and terminology these alien scientists developed to describe human social behaviour and roles are only fitting for a very specific artificial scenario - prisons - and they try to discourage the old terminology like “gang leader” and start to use new terminology like “head of household” in their work.
A "PC" capable of running (Microsoft) Windows is also capable of running a wide variety of other operating systems as well.

- track and optimize productivity

- I have a budget per project

- ensure I work my 40h/week (if I work more or less, my productivity goes down)

- kind of a diary to help me remember what I worked on

- good "backup" where I can see where I actually spent my time on

Additionally, I have a Google sheet that I use to track how many hours a day I in worked.

Gee, why not just say "I don't want to pay interest on money I don't have any more"?

Anything for which you need a loan, which is not collaterized by acquiring an asset, is "under water". E.g. loan for a building repair. The money is gone; the building is only as good as it was before the incident. You know, to hell with paying that back at all, let alone with interest! I'm entitled to free help!

Ya know, I wish someone had told me that cars depreciate, but the loan doesn't. Why do boomers keep all these secrets?
Best thing is probably something straightforward that can't be gamed like a difficult to game SAT. Instead we have a complicated set of criteria that can basically only be gamed by rich people. Worst case scenario if you are are poor and want to get into one of these colleges.

I was obviously saying that's not an avenue that's acceptable for law students. And this letter clearly and thankfully discourages that tact. I wish it went further.

> We already know what he is going to say.

I didn't and I don't? Please stop speaking about things you have no earthly clue about.

The point was -- as I explained in some detail -- it's selfish of you to try to determine what speech I do or don't get to listen to (more simply, stop being a baby when you don't get your way?). If you know what he's going to say, and you don't care for it, then don't attend, or ignore his speech, or if you are a law student, pick one of the dozens of avenues for your speech that don't outright prevent the speech of others.

And please, for the love of God, don't stop taking the bait and looking this ridiculous. These law students were caught shouting down their political enemies because they were angry and they had some power. But once exposed we can see this for what it was -- it was obviously silly. Why? Because -- once exposed -- it was obvious just how politically counterproductive for their cause this was. Most normal people hate academics acting this loony toons, and young people bullying their elders. So -- for one reason or another, please quit the self righteous act, and focus on winning the next round, not reminding us how you lost this one.

You can still do this with the help of an external server.

If Ruffle wants to talk to Ruffle, then the external server doesn't need to handle the traffic, and is cheap to run. If Ruffle wants to connect to something else, the external server will proxy the traffic. But even then, running this for the whole world is probably something that could be supported with ad revenue or donations.

It might be easiest to allow the site running ruffle to provider a websocket via a call on the object. If the site hasn't setup the websocket to use, then the code can pretend whatever server the flash object is asking for just isn't reachable. If the javascript interface is just a packet shunt callback, then it's a bit slower, but the host could provide a local bit of javascript implementing a fake server if they wished ( to maybe fake a high score website or something long since gone that the flash thing required ).

Presumably you’d baby proof your home and would address any spots where the paint is flaking or chipping off the wall. Especially if you knew it was an older home.

Honestly unless the lead paint is the topmost layer, or they put so many coats of regular paint on that it’s falling off the wall, the actual risk of a toddler encountering and then consuming the paint chips is shockingly low.

I'd consider it valid to think of "PC" as being "Personal Computer" when it's a home machine (too unwieldy to wander around outdoors with), and "PC" maybe = "Portable Computer" or "Pocket Computer" when dealing with the average smartphone, tablet, laptop, netbook, e-reader, etc, since they're all computers. Definitely don't mean "Windows" computer though. Where's the letter "P" in "Windows"?
