> A notable aspect of Scilly's historic environment is the presence of stone walls and other remains below high water, the result of low-lying land being submerged by the gradual rise in sea-level. The timing and nature of changing land areas and the separation of the individual islands has, in the past, been the subject of much conjecture and debate.

Amazing. A collection of "People who don't like his personality", plus his literal political opponent, are your best sources on how to identify the next Hitler.

Let me say that again: If a democrat you like says somebody is Hitler, then all is fair to stop him.

Brilliant! I hope you're getting paid for this.

Problem is, especially when a resource is scarce, markets are pretty bad, even worse than distributing things under normal conditions.And farming pretty much needs water, so increasing prices of water for farming means increasing food prices.

So you will still end up with rich people watering their lawns, but people with less income will have to suffer. I think this is better handled through heavy taxation and outright bans rather than trying to get an already finicky thing like a market to solve it.
USSR did run to the finish losing medals to put the first human to space. USA did the same to put humans on the Moon. You can safely ignore these data points as anomalies. Can Russia consistently innovate in any technological field?
I'm not sure you understand. IP scarcity means they are more valuable in the web automation context. IPv6 availability will make it harder to "price" web automation -> more bots online -> more captchas and privacy invasions. That's a real challenge that is hard to solve despite your snarky comments.
Your sleep reqs will vary on activity. A lot of lifters swear by 9 hours. It seems to make sense when you work all day, lift, and otherwise stress out a lot.

…and also includes spying on EU citizens on EU (and the Five Eyes) leaders' behalf (aka "sharing intelligence"). Don't forget that data transfer to the US also provides European leaders a way to circumvent their own privacy regulations, which is unacceptable.
You're comparing horse riding to being a pedestrian though. People on the street didn't consent to the risk the same way a rider or a driver has. You'd need to compare horse bystander injuries to get something remotely comparable.

I want that feature too, but in reality, many non-trivial extensions require the execution of binaries such as language servers. Applying capability models to these executables will require OS support or containerization, but the overhead for memory and disk will be huge. In fact, even an extension to auto-complete paths in .gitignore files requires running a language server written in Rust [1], and it has the real benefit of supporting multiple editors with ease. If the "prettiest java" or "python-vscode" extensions in the article insisted on needing full permissions for Java or Python execution, I believe users would be convinced and end up installing them.

Get a new job. Join a large multinational company with known reputation for developing management skills. Management skills can be learned, and not all companies are created equal - some value good management, some only focus on short term results.

I did this when I was 4 years into my engineering career. After 20 years I ended up a CTO at a large (~40bn) company. There are good things about it, but I am still the happiest when I have time to code and build stuff. Managing others is nearly entirely about emotional intelligence, empathy, and it's better to be an extrovert as your days will mostly be all meetings. Money is fine, but I am not sure I'd do it again if I were to start from scratch. With all the hindsight I think I'd advise myself to join a startup instead.

In any case, don't neglect the company culture. If you want to learn management, don't do it in places with zero strategy and short term focus - you will only learn to never attempt it again, most likely.
Why does the innovation in this space appear to be mostly from China?
Clearly the one pushing for the adoption of DEI. Call it "The Ideology Which Shall Not Be Named" if you please although that hardly makes for a good acronym - too many consonants.

If you are really interested in where this all comes from I'd suggest perusing James Lindsay's New Discourses which is centred around this subject. DEI finds its origin in Critical Social Justice which in its turn is an offshoot from "Theory" [1], short for "critical [2] postmodern theory". New Discourses is full of references which makes it possible to trace back anything found there to its source - which is more or less all that Lindsay does, he starts at some academic utterance related to this subject and traces the references back to their roots.

> I wish they get some telemetry back from the modems and had some kind of KPI-driven process

Another lifetime ago back when cable modems were still fairly new (and uncappable!) you could do this yourself. The modems would all be on RFC1918 space, and be completely reachable to anyone who thought to look. They had a standard SNMP MIB which you could use to graph out signal strength, bandwidth usage, etc. I of course fired up rrdtool and started mapping out my neighborhood.

It was quite interesting to be able to detect problems and actually respond to them proactively. Since the modems were all default settings, you also had r/w SNMP access so you could write to the "reboot" OID among others. It was pretty trivial to script something that would boot off the habitual heavy users during peak times when you wanted to do some gaming.

Fun times. But I also always wondered back then why the hell Comcast (or whomever) wouldn't pay some kid like me $15/hr to build the same telemetry.
Isn't MELPA just serving the latest git master of whatever it happens to be at the time package-refresh-contents was called? With MELPA stable likewise just serving the latest tag? That doesn't spell trust.
I... don't see the problem? The subscription is 1€ a month for up to ten pages, with accumulation over two months for unused credit. That's next to nothing, a whole year of that costs less than a menu at McDonalds.
Agreed, not only are the printing services actually cheaper in the long run, you get access to better and more specialized printers. Want to print on A3? no problem. Want to print stickers and have them die cut? Easy. The commercial printer will be 100x nicer than yours. You don't have to maintain it or deal with crap and malicious firmware.
That's fair; all I ever really print are documents (academic papers, lecture notes, and forms that I need to sign). The printer I mentioned is black and white, so color isn't on my radar.

I'll admit that maybe I was a bit reductive with my statement, let me amend it a bit: for a large percentage of common printing jobs, I don't think a lot of people are missing out by opting to not buy a new printer (except subscriptions).
I assume that's oauth2 (which xoauth2 implies). It works for me with O365 and a Duo key for multiple clients.
Self hosting? Not once you have more than just you and some friends using what you've built, but until then you can just take your time to experiment without taking any cost.
That has no bearing on normalization.

It's more like a series of books, and they send you all the books at once to save shipping costs. But each book is locked in a box that needs a key to open. Your subscription is for a monthly key. If you cancel your subscription do you have the right to read the remaining books?
How is this actually supposed to work in practice, other than sharding EU and non-EU customers and having them unable to communicate across the shards?
That’s fair.

In this situation I was actively evaluating support issues, customer reported problems and new feature requests to triage what was worked and when. I’m comfortable suggesting that if somebody else was making those decisions at the time, the entire company would have folded. It’s hard to expand further on that without going into a lot more detail though.

> what is currently happening to Russia is also slated to happen to them.

Pretty sure Russia started this war, not the other way around.
I looked in to those and you can still get dried print heads. You also have the issue that all of these home ink jets have a waste pad which is not user serviceable. Once you hit a hardcoded number of pages, the printer bricks itself as the pad is full.

To resolve this you are meant to buy another printer. Or you can pull the whole thing to bits and try to replace the pad, then find some way to hack the firmware to reset the counter.
Lego Icons Reveals 10323 Pac-Man Arcade
Did you read the article? Russia has objectively (for now, that gap will close) outclassed the west at EW, missile defense & offense. They are also a leader in nuclear technology. Are those not high tech industries?
That’s always why people have bought home printers. The convenience is worth it to them.
> Even beyond alliance, EU can start trade war

That's how European leaders saw IRA. They didn't retaliate because of the current context, but I find it surprising that US technologists are so oblivious to this kind of context, while resenting so acutely when US companies are asked to respect EU law.
Most of "procedures" i see is a waste.

I would just do a pair programming session to explain all the design patterns being in used. THen let the new hires hack on exisiting/new features.

The onboarding is a failure if you can't help new hires get productivity quickly.
Step 0: Don't be on vacation the week they start.

They will need you. They will need to interact with you to ask questions (even if they have a "dev buddy", they will still need to ask questions of the manager). They will need to interact with you to have you fix problems. They will need to interact with you just for emotional reassurance. And, even if there is no direct interaction, there are things you need to be doing behind the scenes to make everything work smoothly.

So, what I said: Their first week, you need to be there.
My brother printer really likes to waste ink while cleaning itself once a week...
The team at noyb is consistenaly amazing. Makes me really happy that I'm a card carrying member. (Yes, supporters get a plastic member card.

"EnableSendfile On" will enable that on Apache, and has been around since Apache 2.0.44. It's not enabled by default though, and as you say, TLS breaks it.
It's not that newcomers have little chance, but more the symptom showing that there's little interest for competitive AoE2 play among newcomers. Like Starcraft Brood War, that still features Flash, Jaedong and Bisu.

You can compare it to Starcraft 2, whose scene remains quite attractive, and the top 4 European players (all of them being top 10 world) are just 25 23, 21 and 18 years old.
What happens if part of Russia get occupied by Ukraine, like what is reportedly starting to happen now in Belgorod?.
Just as a company needs to be careful about who it hires, and a person needs to be careful when choosing friends and especially a spouse, a country needs to be careful about who it lets in:

"Turf wars for control of the drug trade, driven by an influx of guns, personal vendettas and a pool of available youths, many from marginalized migrant communities, have resulted in a gun-homicide rate approximately 2½ times the European average, according to the Swedish National Council for Crime Prevention.

...

The most notorious gang leader fueling the violence is 36-year-old Rawa Majid, better known as the Kurdish Fox, according to Swedish police and Diamant Salihu, author of two books on Sweden’s organized-crime gangs."
>Western policy risks building up a big Asian military alliance. It should be obvious to China that what is currently happening to Russia is also slated to happen to them. India will be nervous too unless they are hopelessly naive. China and the US were friends once too, back in ... the 2010s...

So your position is, "we should stand aside and turn a blind eye to Russia's violent and unprovoked invasion of a sovereign nation because China might worry that we won't allow them to violently invade other countries?"
The article claims that an allocator that splits memory based on allocation size is called a "buddy allocator". That's misleading: an allocator that allocates an area for each size class is usually called a "slab allocator", while a "buddy allocator" is one that when needed subdivides a memory area with a power of two size into two half-sized areas that are "buddies", does so recursively to satisfy allocations, and coalesces them again when they are free.

E.g. the Linux kernel used (not sure if it's still like this) a buddy allocator to allocate pages and power-of-two blocks of pages and slab allocators to subdivide those pages and allocate data structures.

Another thing that the article doesn't mention that is important is that most production allocators make use of thread-local storage and either have per-thread caches of free blocks or sometimes whole per-thread memory regions. This is to reduce lock contention and provide memory that is more likely to be in the current core's cache.
Overall, nice. But it immediately hits a pet peeve of mine: requiring an in-app purchase to enable native features built into my device’s OS.

I have become less and less concerned about freedom of speech since I have been on the internet. If an app wants to delete my posts, thats okay for me unless I am paying them. Governments in the past have had full control of the information flow, and I don't think that has changed. Whatever freedom of speech we had is now maligned by really annoying and vocal people. Internet just feels hostile. I spend most of my online time on Nintendo games now, they don't let me say more than 4 pre chosen cheers and I am perfectly fine with it.
The advice so far in this thread is great, but I'll add one thing I did back in my former manager life, which was to have a scheduled time block each week of a few hours for general Q&A.

Each week I'd have them pick a topic or area they want to learn more about, and I'd go in front of a whiteboard and explain things to them in as much depth as they wanted. We'd go over the codebase, how it fits in with the rest of the organization, historical reasons why things work they way they do... or even just help getting their dev environment set up, reviewing code, etc.

Of course, everything was already pretty well documented and explained in other places, but nothing beats actual 1:1 time to help with any confusion they may have. It helps build confidence because they know that time is a safe space to ask any question, no matter how "dumb", and that it's all for their benefit. It's also beneficial for there to be multiple hours of time set aside, so that we could actually dive deep and not just leave things as an exercise for later. I was told this was their favorite part of the early months on the job, because it helped build confidence and skill more than any other single thing.
I believe propofol (common general anesthetic) is also known to have some antidepressant effect.
> When I'm doing anything with money here in Germany, like creating a bank account, or borrowing money, I have to answer multiple questions about me being a citizen of the USA or not. Why is that? Because everyone adheres to USA law.

Simple: the USA assumes global jurisdiction over anything involving the US dollar and they do not shy away from muscling over US-local branches of foreign companies to get their will.
Can't believe people in this thread condoning this practice and sticking up for HP!

OP is in possesion of the physical product that his subscription PAID FOR. They can say the sub is for "pages printed", but that's complete nonsense and everyone knows it. It's the INK OP is paying for. They have paid for that ink. They own that ink. They should be able to use it.

Attaching a subscription to a physical product, and then disabling the use of that physical product, is complete nonsense. The phone contract analogy is a poor one. You are paying off the cost of the phone with the contract. They don't send you a new phone each month, and then stop you using it because you didn't use all your minutes.

Normalisation of stuff like this is alarming. Consumers are done for really, I despair as to where it is all going. Especially when you have a usually informed HN audience sticking up for it.
I see your point, but let me counterpoint. Anybody with any financial sense should save their money and not spend it as soon as they get it. This is to prepare for the drought years. Could this be something like that?

1. Nothing was being done to Russia to force them into their war of choice. China ought to learn that too.

2. We're already in WW3, heavy hitting countries aren't directly firing at each other but enough of the world is indirectly or directly in war via proxies that I'd say the world is already in the war.

3. Ukraine isn't being rebuilt by just one country. A good portion of the free world already has established funds for non military aid to Ukraine. As far as I am aware China has not really aided Ukraine at all.

The best option imo is to just not buy a printer. Use the print service at the local library/office supply store. Its cheaper all things considered and you don't have to deal with shitty hardware.
The reason I don't really want to work with languages that are not statically typed is that my (very well paid) projects almost always start on day #1 with 'here is 300-500k lines of code and a list of crap it doesn't do but should, cheers!'. With C#/Java, but definitely with F#/Haskell, this is not a big issue. With Python, JS, Ruby, indeed, I need callstacking like tools or it will take a lot longer. Usually the original devs already left (often they were never employees, but contractors from big firms who peddled juniors for senior prices).

they don't want to expand. The original goal is to have ukraine not in NATO and not pointing missiles at them.

Ukraine although not in nato, had been doing training with nato for a while prior to the invasion.
For those curious what the big deal is here: PyTrees make it wildly easier to take derivatives with respect to parameters involving a complex structure. This makes it much easier to organize code for non-trivial models.

As an example: if you want to implement logistic regression in JAX, you need to optimize the weights. This is easy enough since this can be modeled as a single value, a matrix of weights. If you want to model a 2 layer MLP, now you have to use 2 matrices of weights (at least). You could treat this as two parameters to your function (which makes the derivative more complicated to manage) or you could concatenate the weights and split them up, etc. Annoying, but managable.

When you get to something like a diffusion model you now need to manage parameters for a variety of different, quite complex, models. It really helps if you can keep track of all these parameters in whatever data structure you like, but also trivially just call "grad" with regard to these and get your models derivative with respect to its parameters.

Pytrees make this incredibly simple, and is a major quality of life improvement in automatic differentiation.
