Who would of guessed that this was a much more common occurrence that happened to other enslaved people in 17th century Spain and the ways in which art and slavery intersected during that period.

It wasn’t unusual to be born into slavery or sold into slavery owned by a master who may have been a painter , and the slave end up learning from the master. Juan de pareja had a similar story where he was born into slavery in the 17th century but later gained his freedom and became a successful artist in his own right.

The article focuses on an exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City that showcases Pareja's work alongside that of his master and mentor, the famous Spanish painter Diego Velázquez. The exhibition explores the complex relationship between the two men and the ways in which Pareja's experiences as a slave may have influenced his art.
What is actually a rounding error is the amount of people with a connection like yours. This assumption that fast connections and computers are "widely available" sure makes our jobs easier but it's not true.

I myself live in western Europe and I can't do cloud backups because it would take me about two weeks of 24/7 uploading which then constantly interferes with every other internet connection I want to use and makes things like streaming videos, zoom sessions or online gaming impossible. Game updates usually mean I won't be gaming that evening. And that's already the better connection after switching providers.

The actual optimization here would be fewer updates and games releasing in a finished state.

You see, that's the whole issue right there. Slovenia has its own history, its own problems, and its own heroes. Those things are important for the Slovenian people, not the problems created and sort of solved by the US.

In my country (Brazil if you must know) the cultural avalanche that comes from the US is such that some people genuinely admire the US civil rights movement and its leaders, but will not tolerate anything similar locally. Such is the power of propaganda: you get tied up in the problems of the US and ignore your own.
Yes, I did this. I had a 2019 16” i9 that I replaced with a 14” M1 Pro as soon as I could because the Intel/T2 TouchBar machine was so crash prone, glitchy, and hot. The i9 was the worst Mac I’ve ever had. The M1 Pro is probably the best.

> run at a specific viewport resolution regardless of your device.

It's more like pretending to the website that your screen has a "common"
resolution etc. which is nearly but not quite the same as what you said.

In the past they semi required you to keep your tor window in a specific window
size for this, which just didn't work well in practice.

By now they better integrated that in the browser from what I heard, so you can resize it however you want but websites might have an "empty" border are to the left/right/bottom depending on you screen resolution, windows size etc. from what I have heard.

With a typical maximized window on 1080p you won't really notice it, on 4k you might notice that it's just "dump" up scaled from 1080p, but the person I spoke with wasn't sure if maybe they have a set of supported common resolutions instead of just one. And on a 4:3 screen he said it's quite noticeable.

Just listen to his podcasts. I was podcast hunting the last couple months and came across a recommendation to his podcast. I have no idea about him as a person, his background or his critics; so I was in an unbiased state.

I listened to a few podcasts to realize the dude is toast. He does mumble a lot of "sophisticated" words to sound smart but after 4 or 5 episodes there is nothing of substance that you get from him or his guests. I wondered why he was recommended in the first place but then remember lots of the podcasts in America are JRE style.

Would it? It would matter which language. It'd benefit those most familiar with it today.

You can't just flip a switch. It'd create a huge inequality divide moreso than today.

Some countries are surviving because they use a different language that's not English i.e. less impact from globalization.

Currently, Midjourney lets users invite the Midjourney bot to their own private Discord server/channel, where no one else can see the images they generate using that bot.

There's no reason that Midjourney couldn't allow whatever content the user wants to be generated there, as other Midjourney users would not be able to see it.

But they insist on censoring Midjourney even in channels/servers inaccessible to the wider Midjourney audience. Why?
That's probably the optimal strategy. Apple's products are of good quality, you just need to wait until the prices get reasonable.

I love e-scooters.

The simple problem with them is that too many people don't ride them on the road and instead act unpredictably on the pavement.

If people drove cars on the pavement whenever they felt like it was a shortcut it would be absolute madness.

IME, cyclists _occasionally_ detour onto the pavement in order to get around an obstruction e.g. pass some slow moving cars at a bottleneck. Almost always they cycle reasonably slowly and give a ton of space to others.

Where I am, invariably there's some sort of hood rat flying up and down the pavement at max speed the whole length of their journey not giving a toss about the people around them. I see this more often than I see people actually using the things responsibly in the road.

Some people just have, well, really bad manners, and if there's enough of them then we can't have nice things.

The Active Management Delusion: Respect the Wisdom of the Crowd
Windows 11 is on hysterical trajectory these days. Recently they pushed in a search bar in the taskbar by default. They should rename it to Bing OS to capitalize. Using windows start menu search will fire off 5 requests to bing, Edge embedded everywhere. Usability out of the box is not only bad, it's net negative. A lot of effort has to be put to disable distracting features. Meanwhile simple file compression support still relies on other applications. For a "professional" or "enterprise" OS that is unacceptable.
They simply need to reduce prices if they wish to see more sales. The economic slump means people have tightened their wallets.

Well, consumers in Austria and Germany have by far the shittiest internet in all of EU.

That's what you get when you let your corrupt politicians sell your national infrastructure and customer base to private monopolists who will rentseek you instead of competing and investing in infrastructure.

I remember walking into an A1 shop browsing for internet offers for my new apartment and the lady working there straight up told me "you don't need more than 80 mbit" without even asking what I do with it or what I need it for, as if 80mbit is the national standard all citizens should get, like in communism.

> and littering the kerb when unused

I think that we have different standards here. Street parking for cars is the norm now, but it isn't altogether different in principle from people leaving e-scooters "in the way" on public roads and pavements either. I accept it's a bit different as others have pointed out, but given that we generally permit street parking for cars (subject to some rules), it seems reasonable that we should also permit e-scooters to be parked and it's on society to figure out what the rules for that should be.
I'm guessing the virtual memory trick it to set up a page mapping so that the next bit of virtual address space after your hash table, is the same physical memory of the hash table again. The power of 2 restriction is needed to make this mapping always meet alignment rules.

If you do this, you can skip out the modulo arithmetic that wraps accesses back to the start of the table. Instead you just read off the end of the table and the next (virtual) memory address after the end of the table is equivalent to reading the first address of the table.

This trick can be useful when setting up some form of DMA into a circular buffer - you've got hardware that will write data into a chunk of memory (or read from it) and wants a range of virtual addresses to work with. If your destination is a circular buffer (which is pretty common) the free space might wrap around the end. Your options are to only read enough to get to the end, use two entries in a scatter-gather DMA to do the two parts, or use this trick.

May you elaborate on what your understanding of "regular army" is?
I think there might be a difference in what we see what the HTML tree exactly is in this example. For me, the HTML is a declaration of structure. This can be passed to imperative code to build the DOM, but the tree itself (the HTML code, if you will) is a declarative representation of what I want to have in the end.

It doesn't matter to me how this HTML is turned into a DOM. You could go through the HTML line by line and create the nodes. Or, if you'd think it could be faster, you might insert the children in reverse order at the correct position (e.g. start inserting the last element, then before that insert the second-to-last, and so on). All that matters is that the DOM in end behaves exactly like the one I specified.

In the end, it's the same as with SQL. It doesn't matter what exact approach you take to get me what I want, as long as the end result is what I specified.

This is not about not having basic needs poor, it's about being middle class and chasing riches, expensive cars, homes, clothes, thinking life is about this and it will bring you happiness. Rich people surely aren't qualified to know what it's like to be poor, but they sure are for what it's like being rich by definition. The message is don't expect happiness and meaning be solved by money. That's the point of reading e.g. Marcus Aurelius (arguably one if not the most powerful person of its time) and see what happiness and the meaning of life is when you have everything, so that we middle-class can profit from that wisdom and don't waste our life chasing false dreams.

> he's got a thing for "are we living in a simulation"

The 'simulation' argument is actually very persuasive if you look into it. Quoted below from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Simulation_hypothesis:

[Begin quote.]

Bostrom's trilemma argues that one of three unlikely-seeming propositions is almost certainly true:

1. "The fraction of human-level civilizations that reach a posthuman stage (that is, one capable of running high-fidelity ancestor simulations) is very close to zero", or

2. "The fraction of posthuman civilizations that are interested in running simulations of their evolutionary history, or variations thereof, is very close to zero", or

3. "The fraction of all people with our kind of experiences that are living in a simulation is very close to one."

The trilemma points out that a technologically mature "posthuman" civilization would have enormous computing power; if even a tiny percentage of them were to run "ancestor simulations" (that is, "high-fidelity" simulations of ancestral life that would be indistinguishable from reality to the simulated ancestor), the total number of simulated ancestors, or "Sims", in the universe (or multiverse, if it exists) would greatly exceed the total number of actual ancestors.

Bostrom goes on to use a type of anthropic reasoning to claim that, if the third proposition is the one of those three that is true, and almost all people live in simulations, then humans are almost certainly living in a simulation.

The dollar is insanely strong right now and global Mac prices raised in accordance with that. In places that don’t use USD, prices shot up by tens of percent overnight while the US prices are the same as ever. Japan, for example, got a price increase of about 40% on all items.

Unsurprisingly, sales declined.
I am disappointed to see that it doesn't integrate with Mullvad VPN at all. I have Mullvad VPN but I use it too less because I don't want all traffic on my mac going via VPN (e.g all kinds of random IDEs and websites). All I want is one browser which always uses VPN. But Mullvad has no split tunneling on mac AFAIK, and on windows also you can only block some apps from VPN, instead of saying that only this application will use VPN. This is one feature I really miss from PIA.

In my case, I feel that Apple has priced itself out of the EU market with the latest Macs and iDevices. The new base M2 Air begins at €1500 after taxes which is genuinely an absurd amount of money to ask for a device that comes with 8 GB and 256 GB of non-replaceable ram and ssd respectively. The cheapest iPhone 14 starts at a bit over €1000. My plan is to keep my entry-level M1 Air for a few more years and then I'm replacing it with a Framework laptop.
Also, inflation is increasing quickly almost everywhere, buying the latest and greatest MacBook has always been a luxury purchase for most of the people, so obviously less people do it when the economy doesn't do very well.

Malmö municipality view the problem of e-scooters that have been dumped in the canal (or in the coast) as a problem that the owner of the e-scooter is responsible for. They do not want to pay for cleanup. The e-scooter companies on the other hand view it as way to expensive if they had to pay for the cleanup, and that they could not operate profitable in malmö if they were forced to pay for it.

The end result is that e-scooters are now accumulating in the water with a growing concern among researchers about what will happen once those batteries start to break down.

Reading posts like these I think my family is right and I am wrong. Every time my family business faces financial turbulence, I question why does the business not take equity funding. And every time I get an emphatic No as an answer. The reason being that this not only loses control of the business and hence freedom, but it also increases stress. It is better to grow slow and steady. There will be bumps in the road, but at least it will not add unnecessary stress to the already stressful task of running a business.
