I want to switch back to Linux but I keep having gpu driver issues. Everything was fine until I got a 165hz monitor then had random crashes. If the fact I am using gnome on xorg vs Wayland was the problem (who knows, I gave up on debugging) then I'm all for it

I'd rather just use windows and run Linux in a vm then not use the features of the monitor that I bought.
The only people left I see arguing for X are Linux zealots that hate any sort of change.
I've taken several watches on dives just to see if the ratings are real.

Timex Easy Reader, says 30m, failed on a dive that was no more than 15m.

Seiko SKX-007 OTOH, rated to 200m, I have taken it to about 30m with no ill effect.

I've since learned you can have a watch repair shop test this with a pressure chamber and a finely-calibrated displacement-measuring instrument, no water required.
+1

I very much enjoyed his Game Engine Black Books on Wolfenstein 3D & Doom.
It’s still missing plenty of features that X has, so no I wouldn’t say that it’s ready.
Hmm, there is an RSS feed.

Indeed, but how is that important for this story? That there is worse child exploitation doesn't mean that this is excusable.
Did it get more numerous with the adoption of simplified characters?
Wayland (including XWayland), according to the link. The language is specific that the Xorg server is what's being deprecated, not the ability to run X11 applications via XWayland.
It is trivially easy to write a codon program which runs in both Codon and Python but behaves differently in a way that is not considered a bug in either language. That means it is not a subset, unless by that you mean that each language has a subset of the other's programs which it can run. In which case C and JavaScript are the same language too.
> can you imagine writing down verbose Java code line by line using quill and ink?

Not quill and ink, but I took several programming exams at uni, where we had to write the answers, including pages worth of Java code with pen on three-layer carbonless copy paper...

This was just 15 years ago.
How? I can't wait to order one, there's nothing quite like it on the market. Garmin has a similar watch but it's bigger and heavier - I'm not interested in that.
Thank you for the article. During lockdown I made a search engine that you might like to try: https://highbrow.se/

I have always been wary of the ‘safe fee’ also.
Nurse practitioner prescriptions have to be reviewed by a superior doctor that's how the AMA keeps its Union controlling everything!

My former employer Qualcomm hired about three people to have an employee-only GP medical department. It was a great deal because the very simple treatments could be done very economically and when your company has more than about 500 people it pays actual medical costs directly and the insurance company just runs the books they don't actually do insurance.

Counterpoint: in New York, I’ve never had to wait longer than a day or two for diagnostics. Most of the time it’s same day.

EDIT: to clarify, I'm not claiming it's hunky dory. Just that our system isn't an excuse for these delays.
I thought it’s a free labour market, if there is a huge supply the prices come down. Not sure what they expect?
You are oblivious to the point of this approach. Scaling has nothing to do with it. It has everything to do with not imposing useless and detrimental constraints that buys you nothing but problems. You specify interfaces, and keep implementation details from leaking by encapsulating and insulating them. This is terribly basic stuff.

This isn't widely talked about, but one of the ways that folks in China can get their money out of China is by buying foreign real estate. So if you're worried about protecting your assets from the CCP, this is a great way to do that.

But one of the side effects is that it drives up costs of real estate for citizens. It's hard for a regular person to win a bidding war with the Chinese millionaire/billionaire who is more concerned about protecting their assets than buying a home for a fair price.

Things got so bad in Vancouver, that they banned foreign buyers. See: https://www.immigration.ca/canada-foreign-buyer-ban-starting...

The net was buying moved from Vancouver to Seattle.
Passkeys are a brand name for an "all of the above" buffet of menu options and sorting out specific "branding efforts" versus the practical, achievable, standardized options is going to be a real ongoing challenge. On the one hand, because it allows for and often uses so many different practical options that should mean that no one path is better tested than any other. On the other hand, yeah it adds for a lot of complications when trying to figure out what people (will) mean by "passkeys" support.

> But it's unclear if supporting passkeys actually requires services to support more than one public key associated with an account.

Present best practice for WebAuthn is to always support an arbitrary number of public keys associated with an account. That shouldn't change with Passkeys and some present passkeys implementations are allowed to present an arbitrary number of public keys at enrollment time.

> A properly secure system would have a mode that made sync impossible, you would have to generate a unique and hardware-secure passkey for each device.

You should be able to do that in theory. It's obviously going to be harder to operate and maintain than a system involving synced keys and yes it may be too soon to have a good idea of what sort of practical obstacles might exist.
Do XWayland programs still scale incorrectly when using dpi scaling in wayland? This thwarted my last serious attempt to switch to sway.
Mandarin definitely has many characters with multiple pronunciations. One large class come from literary vs. colloquial reading differences: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Literary_and_colloquial_readin...

Another large class class comes from vestiges of derivational morphology in Old Chinese: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homograph#In_Chinese
For instance, the character 度 in modern Mandarin can be pronounced dù (when used as a noun) or duó (when used as a verb), both of which derived from Old Chinese /daːɡs/ and /daːɡ/, respectively.

With Simplified Chinese characters, some of them come from the merger of originally different words that had similar, but not exactly the same pronunciations. For instance, both 髮 (fà) and 發 (fā) were merged into 发.
Okay, I shouldn’t have used “want”. But helping others and collaboration is not something alien in the art world. Artist publish their work almost for the same reason programmers do:’

1. To showcase their work

2. To get feedback

Also, I don’t think it’s fair that we have to wait for the majority response before we can form an opinion of whether or not something is good for them. Do we have to ask millions of people if they like it if their health benefits, social security or left thumb gets removed before we can say that they definitely won’t like it?

I think it is pretty safe to say that artists don’t like having their whole livelihood overnight. (Inb4 get better jerbs)
RHEL itself is deprecated for desktop/workstation use. I last used RHEL in that capacity 10 years ago and even then it was apparent that this was a niche it wasn't well suited for.
Then......good news, you don't have to do this with this one! If you use it as a watch, and only use the fitness functions sporadically, then it will work forever just off solar power, like any solar powered casio for the last 20 years.

Another surprise for me: removal of the `scp` command. I hadn't even realized that `openssh` provided a command named `sftp`; for some reason I always assumed that `scp` was using the `SFTP` protocol under the hood, but maybe I shouldn't take that for granted.

That's evidence that the Neanderthals engaged in cannibalism. That's not evidence that homo sapiens ate the Neanderthals as food.
In practice, ipv6 often uses only 48-56 bits for global routing with 8-16 bits usable for subnet ids or routing within a customer site. The last 64 bits of the address are used to identify a particular device in a subnet. So, an ipv6 address is a lot bigger than an ipv4 address - but that is because those bits are doing more things than they are in ipv4.
Wayland+Xwayland as they mentioned in the post.
I hope it's gonna work. Last time I used wayland (few years ago) there were issues with many applications I used to.
A better comparison would be the Motif/CDE GUI that commercial Unix workstations were using at the time on workstation-class hardware. I think NeXTSTEP still wins on style, particularly since X desktops were a garish mix of raw X, Xt toolkit and Motif apps all coexisting.

Some notable models in the line-up of classic looking digital watches:

- Casio F-91W: $14 which gets you a basic watch

- Casio G-Shock GW-M5610: $110, Similar to DW-5600E but adds solar, radio time-sync
- Casio G-Shock GW-5000: $300, Similar to GW-M5610 but has a stainless steel case instead of plastic
- Casio G-Shock GMW-B5000: $400, Similar to GW-5000 but has a stainless steel bezel and bracelet
- Casio G-Shock GMW-B5000T: $1100+, Similar to GMW-B5000 but in titanium
This is a huge upgrade...but one major annoyance with their new interface is some keyboard shortcuts conflict with browser shortcuts. I'm looking at my repo and I ctrl+f to search the current file and start typing my search query assuming it's working...but it's actually focused on the file browser and started trying to edit the file instead?!?
Even though a process can be run concurrently, it doesn’t mean you necessarily want to. Besides that, your cron itself may be something like “do-something | grep foo > /root/bar”. You obviously don’t want to run that concurrently. You could create a script, but that’s more cumbersome.
Nothing. You can use wayland, if you have the same hardware configuration as a wayland developer. Wayland's developers have decided it is feature complete, so if it doesn't do something you need it's apparetly your fault now.

I don't know what the future is of OpenBSD's X Window fork, but it looks like I'd better find out. Wayland won't handle multiple GPUs driving a single monitor.
> So, is Wayland ready?

I'm not that interested in digging into the details of why, but SMPlayer doesn't like Wayland on my system, and SMPlayer is the only video player that I can get to play videos from smb shares without a fuzz. So Xorg it is...

I try to switch every 6 months or so to see if things have improved but, so far the answer is no.
As part of a project code-named "Jaguar", Apple did consider using a Motorola 88K variant as their future RISC-based hardware, but it was short-lived and they moved on to the POWER Architecture. In 1991, Apple, IBM, and Motorola formed the "AIM" alliance with the goal of creating a Common Hardware Reference Platform (CHRP). This led to the PowerPC architecture, which included most of the POWER instructions along with some additions and deletions.
Wayland is fine. I haven't run into any problems using it in Fedora. Wayland vs Xorg shouldn't affect gaming.
It's really hard to break global hydrostatic equilibrium of a planet (in fact, that global roundness[1] is used in the IAU's definition of a planet). Any raising of bumps on the surface will tend to produce depressions elsewhere. For example, Mauna Kea depresses the level of the seabed/crust around it. Likewise, high tide at some points (in the solid earth, the oceans, or the atmosphere) are associated with low tides at other points.

- --

[1] You could probably toy with models of Earth-moon as a pair of Jacobi ellipsoids or piriforms (pear-shaped, thin ends inwards) but I don't see that working without a much smaller mass ratio and higher spins. Piriform bodies (at least of homogenous self-gravitating fluid, which is a good representation of the mantle) are generally unstable. Maybe that's good if you can find a path that relaxes back to a Maclaurin (oblate) spheroid for the Earth mass that doesn't also relax the (whole of the) "bump", and relaxes the moon to its weak Jacobi (scalene) spheroid.

Really speculating substantially away from what I know: maybe the "synestia" flavour(s) of the giant impact hypothes(e)s for the origin of the moon might be a path to some test simulation codes: coalesce an ellipsoidal (or as I said, piriform or even oviform) moon first and have that drive some aspects of Earth's planetary differentiation (which happens later in that (family of) model(s): <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synestia>). In particular, the driving should be away from homogeneity in an attempt to escape eventual hydrostatic equilibrium for the Earth-mass which otherwise leaves you stuck with encoding surface features on the (very) thin crust and then dealing with the Mauna Kea problem above. I don't know how you could approach this idea with realistic chemistry though, which I think melts & dissolves this line of thinking.

ETA: Really wild speculation: with unrealistic chemistry, freeze out a long-term solid hourglass structure with the neck at the Earth's centre of mass, piling lots of rocks on the ends terminating just under the surface (but above the mantle) at the poles, and then have one pole always point to the moon Mass. Doesn't at all fit lots of lines of evidence in very old surface rocks, though. Also very hard to wash out tides raised by the sun.
I saw this email: obe...@amazon.llnl.gov and was curious about it, then later saw Werner and I was like is that a coincidence?
There’s more than just KDE and Gnome out there, you know.

There’s dozens of WMs that have no Wayland equivalent, and at this point seems like they never will. I use Xmonad at work. I doubt we’ll ever see a Wayland port of StumpWM.
It really was (though I can't speak for the people working on NeXT boxes and Sun Workstations, etc). It wasn't really a matter of if a given computer would become unstable and crash every day, but how many times and how much you would lose. Somehow I still developed a liking for computers, but even with the incredible increase in complexity which works against it, a $30 prepaid Android burner phone today is more stable and reliable (though it isn't more fast and responsive) than any Mac or PC introduced in the 90s.
Well, the conspiracy has an office on Michigan Avenue in Chicago, a couple of hundred employees and a nice website. It's the Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education. They control accreditation for medical residencies, including the number of doctors that are allowed to graduate from each accredited program each year, and in what specialties.

Until 2014 there was some competition in this with Doctors of Osteopathy, who had their own residency accreditation, but then they merged them, presumably so that they wouldn't start cranking out a bunch of DOs and devalue the profession.

This is not the AMA directly, but the AMA is one of the members of the ACGME.
Small Claims is effective, but if you win - and you probably will - there's no guarantee that a company the size of Facebook will care. This has been a common problem for people suing airlines which ignore legal obligations to pay out under compensation law.

So you'll have to go to court again for an enforcement order.

If you get one of those you can send bailiffs in to take stuff and sell it on your behalf. But it's starting to get expensive at this point.

Although it will probably get FB's attention, especially if someone from the press just happens to be there to take photos when the bailiffs go in.
scp(1) has used the SFTP protocol since OpenSSH 9.0. Before that it used its own protocol.
Hoe does sftp replace scp?
Because if you could develop on a NeXT, you would develop on a NeXT :)
180%? Nice.
Odd. To the best of my recollection, I've never made that switch. I wonder if it was a prompt upon initial setup way back when? Oh well.
> This feels like it has to be a federal matter. It's impossible to imagine every state picking & choosing how it runs it's own international diplomatic ties.

I'd think so too - but apparently not: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Property_law_in_the_United_Sta...

It seems that property is mostly a state thing, but it's certainly interesting that it has international effects and an impact on the US' reputation nationally.

> It would be too cruel to make the US into 50 different states everyone has to bargain with.

I'm trying to think of the alternative, but guaranteeing the ability for any entity to purchase land in any state seems like a lot of power for the federal government to have.

Goodbye goalposts.
RHEL doesn't really care about supporting desktop users, so they're trimming fat. They don't need X and Wayland to nominally support workstation use, just one of those is enough to sell workstation support contracts to executives who won't even be using it themselves..

Debian on the other hand cares about keeping desktop users happy, so it makes sense to support both.
If you aren't a Linux zealot then why are you even using Linux? Only slightly kidding ;)
Will this affect Fedora or other red hat universe distros?
It sounds like wayland devs are bad guys. Is there a story behind it?
That is what pension or life insurance is for.

You are right. Ideally we would like to keep everything in GPU memory of course. But we have not been able to render CuArrays with Makie yet, and I'm not sure if that is actually implemented, as you suggest. If so, it would be great to see an example of this :)

Ask HN: Will temporal.io be a single point of failure?
Isn't temporal.io a single point of failure because you would wrap all your api calls inside temporal.io and if temporal.io fails, either the api call will fail or atleast the task inside it won't be scheduled? Am I understanding something wrong?
Whenever linear RGB / gamma discussions come up, you know there's going to be a lot of folks going on about how frustrating it is that the default for most apps is to do their blending/filters/etc in gamma space (as TFA does).

And they're right. But there's an entire flip side of this coin, called Linear is Not Always The Answer.

Are you dealing with the behavior of light? Then you should be a linear colorspace.

But if you're performing artistic operations or other things that need to look right to a human, this is not what you want. What you actually want is a perceptually-uniform colorspace. Linear RGB is most definitely _not_ perceptually uniform! It's in fact, much worse than sRGB!

sRGB for all its flaws is at least roughly perceptually uniform for grey tones, a kind of "poor man's perceptual space". Color mixing, gradients, etc etc all work much better in a uniform space.

I've fallen in love with Oklab as a colorspace. (https://bottosson.github.io/posts/oklab/ ), which has in practice provided excellent results.

Light? Use linear rgb. Human vision? Use Oklab.
Fine for some, but for others there are still show-stoppers. I have a laptop with an Nvidia card and my latest attempt to use Wayland, on Fedora 38, didn't last very long at all before being forced to retreat to xorg by the issues.

Hospital systems are mostly following the same path as other corporations have, merging and acquiring until there are only a few dominant firms, at which point those firms will have the market in a death grip.

There are clinics and small partnerships where doctors are part owners, but they're a tiny minority in the US. For the most part, to be a doctor in the US you have to have admitting privileges at a hospital.
