All I know is that this system leads to many undesirable outcomes and at least in some domains I’m familiar with, like software patents, I can think of improvements (don’t grant software patents, just enforce trade secrets).

This is kind of a personal hill I’m willing to die on because I’m pissed enough already that I was born into a world that only just recently - last 200y - either enclosed (land) or ruined (air, ocean) all the other commons in a way that benefits winners (and their descendants) while harming me. But I think that, fundamentally, securitizing creative work is an enclosure of the “commons” that benefits the securitizers a bit much at the expense of the commons, indeed it’s one of the last commons we have left where there’s enough space for the Average Joe but even that is at risk given increasingly strong IP protection and multinational corporations’ patent portfolios.

For one, things like chord progressions in music are of low enough dimensionality that they can easily be fully “enclosed” to clear harm to the public, as their being previously used or invented doesn’t mean derivative-seeming works are actually stealing the IP. For patents, we’re also “enclosing” common sense applications of new technology to domains because our patent office and legal system don’t know any better, and are even setup to facilitate this (see that Texas county that handles a huge portion of patent disputes).

I don’t know all the ways to fix it, I’d rely on the expertise of lawyers and specialists (like people in the EFF) to figure that out. I’m sure people have problems with things I have domain knowledge about despite not knowing exactly how to fix it; that doesn’t mean they’re illegitimate problems. But just like when people take issue with my bigtech stuff, there are a huge number of incumbent entrenched interests incentivized to fight against detrimental (to them) changes, and most experts knowledgeable enough to understand the problem and solutions are actively employed/benefitting from the current system setup. It’s just a hard problem.
I agree! (except I think "antisocial behavior" in the last sentence is too harsh). But I don't see how we can make a moderation rule out of it. "Don't quote ChatGPT as if it were an authoritative source of information" is much too specific. We'd need some sort of general principle.
But how do we know? The pile is to the ceiling with other companies that said the same thing and later we discover that was definitely not the case.
Short answer is horribly. Chinese is not one word per character. Not even close. Most words you encounter on a regular basis are two-char compounds, but individually each character would tell you less about the whole than ‘camp’ and ‘ground.’ Many words are four-char compounds.

You could potentially design ligatures for every word in the dictionary, but given the vastly different grammar, you wouldn’t be able to understand what a sentence said. You might be able to glean ‘this sentence involves a dog.’ Even google translate makes such poor translations, that it can really only assist in understanding. It usually doesn’t understand the subject of the sentence and confuses all the pronounced into ‘I.’
Yes, the part of North India where I live it's raining and the summer is cool.

I wonder where the heatwaves got shipped or is europe also experiencing this cool summer phenomenon?

Why climate is becoming milder in North India?
Well, macos only has to support a low-digit number of sanctioned configs, so that’s much easier. For whatever it worth, I found linux’s device support the very best — while windows does likely have some random binary for a given device laying around the internet, it is often borderline malware, and may not work too well on a newer windows version (though credit where its due, windows’ backwards compatibility is phenomenal). Linux has a vast amount of supported devices out of the box, no “windows is looking for a solution”.
curious ; are you invalidating, or validating my comment?
Can you elaborate on why using the lookup table makes this objectionable/dishonest? Factorial of 20 is the largest factorial that fits in 64-bit integer. The factorial function you linked is only defined on codon's int type (64-bit signed) so it encompasses the full range of the output datatype.
Cavitation is precisely what I would like to test...

Also, will 'waterlilly' work with a viscosity to Air?

I could have sworn I posted the Internet Archive link. Maybe it was stripped off.
KDE’s wayland support was spotty for a long time, only recently has it gotten more stable. Maybe try it with a newer KDE version, but your experience will not yet be that great. But it’s almost there.
From my understanding the utility requirements for residential versus office means that it is often easier/cheaper to just demolish and rebuild.

However, the more skyscrapery the building gets, the less that may be the case.
Indeed! It's awful, but all-too-true. Those who enable the bullies can be as bad for the group as the bullies themselves. Cultivating, protecting, and maintaining a peaceful and trustful society is an active effort, not a passive one.

I agree that we should be open to vibrant discourse and charitable to outgroups. But that's not what your GP comment actually did. What it did was tell the other person: you're failing to empathize, you have no ability to understand, you can't see a point of view other than your own, you've subscribed to an ideology, you dismiss anything that doesn't share your point of view.

No one on the receiving end of that will feel like they are being met with open, vibrant, charitable discourse! You have to show those qualities, not tell them.

I'm sure your intentions were good—it's just that the mechanics of "vibrant discourse and charitability to outgroups" are trickier than they seem. Nothing is easier than to unintentionally break them without realizing it. Therefore we all need to work hard at it consciously and listen to feedback when we get it wrong. Me most of all.

(btw the second half of your comment was just fine)
Maybe splitting YT is a good idea, but even with all the junk YT still is a jewel. There are incredible things in there - art, lectures, philosophy, so much value packed inside.

Definitely. The logograms and being in a completely different language family are the real hurdles.

Yes, half the people have less, half more. But even the "more" half is very bad news. 5-year survival is ~4%. My dad made it something like 16 months, although his quality of life was quite poor for most of that; the tumor had already caused some neurological complications, and the surgery kicked off frequent seizures that were debilitating. From what I've read, poor quality of life is typical of aggressive gliomas, even when in nominal remission. And then there's the half who have less; my mom got about 4 months, most of which was taken up with radiation and chemo.

Please let me know in the future if I can bring up any of my prose to your sensitivity standards. That's a big concern of mine when writing on the internet.
I don’t know about Korea, but I know I can save money and time by flying to Thailand and going to their top medical tourism hospital. Insurance pays for part of it, but even if not the out of pocket is less than my deductible if I just pay directly. Everything is done immediately on a walk in basis, start to finish. If I need to stay the night they even have a hotel in the hospital. If you need extended treatment they have agreements with luxury hotels to provide nursing etc and the cost is less than a normal hotel in a major American city or a nice hotel in a second/third tier city.

The medical system in America is broken. The best care is possible here, but it requires extraordinary measures to get it. For 99.9% of care it’s below third world.
XWayland is a backwards-compatibility embedded x server for wayland. It’s always been planned with that in mind, it will not be deprecated the same way windows 11 can run windows 98 binaries.
I would say solo devs are going to move a lot faster on single features than big teams. Not sure that’s surprising, especially when this is integrating some glue logic around an external API. The big challenge here is keeping your OpenAI bill down!
You've clearly never been to Compton
The relatively modern hate-boner for Columbus is kind of weird, and I'm not exactly sure why it's reached such prominence. I'm not Spanish or Portuguese, but I fail to see why lauding explorers is a contemporarily bad thing, colonialism or not.
Which you always have, it’s linux..

Besides, it’s about a RHEL 10, the current one will still be supported for a long time.
C exposes the underlying memory structure rather than abstracting it away "safely" like many other languages. Requiring the programmer to understand and manage memory presents the difficulty, because programmers usually start with languages that hide the details, whether they start with BASIC like I did, or with Python as many do today.

Understanding how CPUs and memory work requires the programmer to put in more effort learning the fundamentals at a lower level of abstraction. That creates a filter -- some people won't get through that and will forever find pointers, and therefore C, confusing and mysterious. I could say the same thing about SQL. If you don't actually understand the relational model and how databases work you stay at the surface level, never really sure what goes on inside.

The best intro to C remains the classic The C Programming Language by Kernighan and Ritchie, called K&R for short. I would recommend Adam Osborne's books on microcomputers to understand processors and memory but they went out of print decades ago.

Trello is owned by Atlassian. Not saying it's impossible, but they'd be shooting themselves in the foot big time if they pulled some shady shit that alienated their corporate user base.

I'd imagine they offer Trello for free to entice you to start paying for Jira (or god forbid, Confluence).

Just because you can figure it out by context in songs (rarely upon the first listen, mind you), that doesn’t mean the added cognitive load isn’t excessively burdensome in everyday speech.

This seems to be because Firefox has no way to disable text antialiasing (whereas Safari and Chrome support -webkit-font-smoothing), so Firefox is trying to antialias a pixel font which just looks weird
The parent comment is surely well aware of that. They were speaking normatively (what should be) rather than descriptively (what is).
Yes, yes they do, to hundreds of different shits a year; without a single thought about legal review or approval.
For those curious, the romanization system here is Jyutping: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jyutping

That's new to me; previously I had only seen Pinyin and Wade-Giles:

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

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wade%E2%80%93Giles

Wikipedia has a nice article on the history and a number of other systems:

They are, lots of reasons, do you have data suggesting otherwise?
That’s a bit of a misrepresentation, while Wayland indeed had quite a bit of development in the last few years (which is the order of things in the bazaar style of development - the more people use it, the more care it gets), it always supported every hardware linux supported, it only builds on that after all. X just had some hacky way of bundling proprietary drivers for better support for nvidia cards.

Also, scaling of wayland applications worked, that was a major factor of the whole protocol change.
I didn't find C all that hard to grok. It helped matters that I had spent the previous 10 years programming in assembly languages.
Hmm, I tried logging in there but I get "You seem to be offline, press reload to try again." oddly enough. Seems like this will be more painful than I wanted to deal with.
Who has the final say in editing disputes on Wikipedia?
This is pretty good for someone who can speak Cantonese but can't read/write it.

As an example, I speak Mandarin and can't read/write (much) Chinese characters as I spoke it at home while growing up in Australia. So, I can imagine there'd be quite a lot who are in a similar situation to me but with Cantonese who would benefit from this (not just as a learning tool).

I've been using the Zhongwen[0] browser extension to "read" websites that have Chinese characters for many years as hovering over Chinese characters will display a popup with the pronunciation ping yin. It may not be the speediest way of understanding a block of Chinese text.

I could imagine someone creating a browser extension that would replace the font used on the website(s) with the Cantonese Visual Font when the extension is enabled.

https://theoatmeal.com/comics/columbus_day explains how Columbus was unusually bad (and, accurate or not, might have been a partial cause of the modern hate-boner for Columbus, along with waves at everything else).
Columbus was Italian.

Don't you think it more reasonable that features that will definitely be implemented by every desktop environment ought to be core rather than not fully standardizing on it 14 years later?

https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/wayland/wayland/-/issues/32

Attentive designers would have standardized this in the incredibly obvious way of allowing the user to white list specific apps, logically at install time and screenshot apps would then implement a singular standard that works in version 0.1. Instead we force users to confront and understand the difference between x11 xwayland and wayland in order to figure out why their screenshot app doesn't work or doesn't work well.

This doesn't enhance the case for "regular" people to use Linux.

California is a stage. I believe that the activists in favor of reparations for slavery are hoping that they get national publicity.

I believe that this recommendation has a very slim chance of passing into law, especially given California’s fiscal situation and growing financial burdens for assisting the homeless.

Native Americans, on the other hand, have a much more legitimate claim to make in California in my opinion. Their land was stolen from them, and that same land is extremely valuable in 2023.

For the record:
1. California was never a slave state.

2. California did not exist as a state until 1850 when it entered as a free, non-slavery state.

3. The demographic fraction of blacks in California is 5%, compared to 13.5% nationally.

Did apple ever actually release details on specifically what they were seeing and how underclocking "fixed" it?

Lithium cells can have increased voltage sag, but they should have well over 1000 cycles before any noticeable decrease in capacity of voltage potential. Even then the total capacity might drop on the order of 5-15% and the voltage say shouldn't be impacted.
Sorry, but I don't see an answer to my question, so I'll ask it again: What makes you think some other new system will be less abusable?
Yip. 'Psychological Operations' makes it all sound sophisticated and high brow, but in the end it's all just poo peddling parades. Recently there were a bunch of news stories about some US psyops accounts that were "discovered" and removed from Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, and then publicly analyzed. You can find that analysis here. [1] Here's a random media report on the accounts being removed. [2]

The report is very readable, entertaining, and includes pics of the memes, posts, and other things. It also provides some degree of insight into the messaging that the US military psyops teams believe are most effective on an array of topics, including Ukraine. In general though it also really emphasizes the hamfisted nature of propaganda and psyops.

The accounts averaged 2051 tweets per account, with an average of 0.49 likes, and 0.02 retweets. 19% had more than 1,000 followers. The accounts, regardless of where they were feigning to be from, primarily posted from 1200-1800GMT, or 8am-2pm EDT. They also tended to share US propaganda that was translated word-for-word into foreign languages. There were also amusing tells with things like the scripts they were using. The majority of posts were made within the first second of a new minute.

All those accounts also went into overdrive on March 2022.

Risk managers warn cyber insurance could become ‘unviable product’

I personally know a senior mechanical engineer who’s basically doing what other posts are complaining software engineers end up doing — managing and solving business problems.

I think this is more common than you’d think.
Probably true for every five-plus decade span since just before the Industrial Revolution.
I don't think anyone questions his tenacity as an explorer. I always thought calling what he did the "reunification" of the old and new world was about right. It's more the plunder and enslavement of the native people that people have a problem with I'd guess. I'm also under the impression that a lot of the positive Columbus marketing was a 19th/20th Century US thing to help boost the social status of Italian immigrants; I don't really know his approval rating throughout the centuries, but I think you've right that it's down as of late.
