You know, I never ended up navigating to that main page. There wasn't an option for it anywhere in the drop down menu at the top, or in all the options at the bottom. As far as I can tell, the only link to it is the logo graphic? So maybe all they need to do is add a "main page" option to the menu and it will be more ergonomic?

It is highly appealing to have that defense in depth. However, when building a prototype or a product, not having experience in it causes me to worry that we will end up being stuck with a choice where it's very hard to pull ourselves out of.

So instead we've stuck to having that filtering logic in the application side. The main concern is how user auth/etc works in Postgres. (lack of knowledge, not lack of trust).

Because we also have complex filtering like, "let me see all the people in my team if I have this role, but if i'm a public user, only show this person" etc
Water vapor saturates infrared absorption low in the atmosphere, so adding CO2 at ground level has almost no effect on net IR absorption. It's only high in the atmosphere, where there is no water vapor, that added CO2 has a noticeable effect on net capture of infrared from Earth's surface that would otherwise escape to space.

This was all verified in the 1950s, by the way. The fact that people still don't understand it can be put down to the disinformation put out by the fossi fuel lobby since the early 1980s, I suppose.

https://history.aip.org/climate/Radmath.htm

> "Plass pursued a thorough set of one-dimensional computations, taking into account the structure of the absorption bands at all layers of the atmosphere. In 1956 he explained clearly, for the first time, that the water vapor absorption lines did not block the quite different CO2 absorption spectrum, adding that there was scarcely any water in the upper atmosphere anyway. He further explained that although some of the CO2 band itself was truly saturated, there were many lines to the side where adding more of the gas would increase the absorption of radiation. His arguments and calculations showed convincingly that adding or subtracting CO2 could seriously affect the radiation balance, layer by layer through the atmosphere, altering the temperature by a degree or more down to ground level."

The problem isn't that it doesn't need one, it's that it doesn't have one. I have no idea why you would think that it doesn't need one.

Well there is vcpkg now anyway so it finally does have one.

I as a user would like to maintain a beating heart is a pretty compelling story though.
I once built a project management system wherein user stories and tasks were separate entities with no parent-child relationship. If you wanted to connect them you would have to do so through a feature (basically a group of user stories and tasks).

The idea was that user stories could be created and grouped into features when speccing a project. Then developers could jump in afterwards and populate the features with actual tasks. The estimation would be done on the tasks rather than the user stories.

In the end I didn't really invest the time and ressources to push the idea anywhere, but I still think it's an abstraction worth investigating. That is if it hasn't already been.

100 cars driving down the highway. There's a freak storm about to break and FEMA needs to put out an emergency alert.

So they broadcast on all AM channels, all FM channels, satellite & internet radio, and broadcast text messages.

A driver would need to have: AM reception, but no FM signal. No cell phone (or no cell phone signal) and be a habitual radio listener for this law to make a difference.

How many of those 100 drivers fit that bill?

This makes a lot of sense to me, and I think the biggest thing is this changes the conversation at a company level about which boards to buy. Generally, companies have a lot more resources to put towards supporting more niche commercial boards, like generating their own BSPs and Linux builds. They went with Pis because they are a) cheap and b) easier. If they are a) more expensive and b) easier, that would change the calculation potentially for a lot of companies.

That would be okay with me if we could actually get to this level of granularity. Same thing for the streets used by public transportation? Subways alone won't work everywhere, so we'll need buses, and these will need highways too and pay for them in the fare.

I think most governments decided that it's not practical to get to this level of granularity, instead trying to get the cost closer to the user. For instance, having vehicle licensing and gas taxes paying for streets and highways in general based on usage statistics. For electric vehicles, governments are studying approaches like charging by mile driven using tracking devices (has its own problems).

But in my earlier proposal, getting the costs closer to the user would mean for trains and subways to pay for their own tracks and energy, and buses to pay for their streets and highways through licensing and gas (and for special bus lanes directly through tickets)

Courage is doing something you know you need to do, but are afraid to do it.

Conformity is doing stuff that other people are doing.

They're completely different axis and its a non-sequitur. I can't agree with the statement in any sense. Its worse than wrong, its just nonsense.

--------

You can be courage and conformity: IE: charging into a battle with your friends is both. You all know you might die, but you know it must be done.

You can be non-courageous but with conformity. Someone's being bullied by the Tyrant of the Crowds... its easier to just keep bullying (and conforming with others) rather than doing the courageous right thing to do and break out of the mob-mentality.

You can be courageous and non-conforming. IE: The fool or jester who taunts the king to provide key advice when all the others know that the king might kill them for speaking that way.

You can be non-courageous and non-conforming. You can run away and desert your post when everyone else was brave enough to face a threat. Alternatively, you can be the one to run away from a hopeless fight and be a rare survivor. The smart one, rather than the group moving in a death march inevitably dying.

Each possibility has good and bad connotations. Its stupid to pretend that "always being courageous" is correct, or whatever. Sometimes running away from a fight is the right move. Sometimes, standing and fighting is the correct move. Sometimes, working with your friends and conforming with the crowds is correct. Sometimes, it is not.

Generally speaking, "courageous" is the right thing to do. But fear is an instinct for a reason. Its more important to live and fight future fights, than to die on the first fight opportunity. George Washington famously ran away from most of his fights during 1776, but critically kept the American Army alive long enough to defeat the British.

--------

Fear is the opposite of courage. But Fear comes from Wisdom, which is also the opposite of courage. Its okay to run away, often its okay to run away _a lot_. But you gotta pick your fight eventually (you can't just run away from everything).
I made a similar comment above. I find myself needing so many packages that aren't in the Debian repositories, over time the system just morphs into Ubuntu anyway.

Yep, very similar experience here.

I learned Dvorak around age 12, a year or so after I learned to touch-type QWERTY. I completely lost the ability to touch-type QWERTY after switching to Dvorak until I took a CS class in high school that was on ancient computers running Win98, where I had no ability to change the layout.

I have gradually built back my ability to touch-type on QWERTY now, acceptably quickly (probably 50WPM?) but my error rate is atrocious. I find it a little embarrassing to be a computing professional and not be able to type competently when I sit down at someone else's computer.

> Since its introduction over 20 years ago, the Intel® 64 architecture became the dominant operating mode.

Okay that's a bit heavy on the retcon, don't you think?
This makes no sense to me. Backward compatibility is a huge competitive advantage for Intel, and IMHO, it's royally messed up that vm86 mode doesn't work in 64-bit mode.

One DOS application I use was hurt by this: "old DOS OrCAD". It works well in Windows-XP on a 32-bit machine, but does not work at all in 64-bit Windows. (It's actually a 32-bit DPMI program and has drivers to use Windows GDI so you don't have to mess around with drivers).

More evidence: IBM 360 mainframe software still works in Z/OS.

It might be worth it for non-generic computing devices like cell phones, but Intel missed the boat there already.
I'm too familiar with the grift.

"We're not coming for your X!" is the lead-in. They need to be entrenched first, before they let anyone know the real play (if indeed they ever do). Plenty of useful idiots who truly believe in the PR spin too... so when they repeat it to you, in their own heads they're not lying. Just telling you a beautiful truth. And if you ever do catch one of the cynical ones who will tell you like it is...

They can be denounced. Or even dismissed as an obvious false flag. "We're the good guys, we'd never say that!"

I did speak for myself. I explained why this doesn't work for me, why I have no interest in it, and how there are millions of other people who will agree with me unless you find a way to deceive them.

Your condescending comment though doesn't make me feel bad for what I've said, it's expected. I'm actually a little amazed about how a group of semi-unorganized humans can do these things without coordination and succeed so often. You're all like some slime mold... no gigantic brain yanking on the marionette strings. And yet the puppet still dances.

> It id curious you seem entirely convinced that a car free "them" is necessarily taking from you.

It's pretty transparent. This won't be pursued in NYC council, this won't be pursued in the NY state legislature. It's a car free "everyone" masquerading as a car free "just them".

And with the onslaught underway, the only possibly opposition strategy with a snowball's chance in hell of succeeding is to throw up every roadblock, aggravate every irritation, stall every effort. Chances are we're not going to be friends, I think.
For whatever it's worth, I'd say that artists are more qualified to make that assessment than the justices on the supreme court.
I'm not sure generalisation here is ideal - quite often these are specialised implementations for specialised cases, and using them in other situations tends to only work so far.

For example, I'm currently working on a spreadsheet-style tool where the reactivity is largely being handled by SolidJS signals. It works fairly well up to a point (and that point is probably good enough for the client's needs), but it's very clear that there are big limitations here, and a more complete solution would bundle its own reactivity system. Things like computing results that spill across several cells just don't map cleanly onto conventional signals, so we instead have lots of ways to manually trigger recomputation, rather than just setting up the perfect pipeline flow. Likewise, figuring out where data loops are happening just isn't really possible.

That's not to say that SolidJS is bad for this sort of stuff - it has been great, and it's impressive how well the underlying reactive primitives work even for this project. But I think even when the underlying theory between these tools is pretty similar, the practical tradeoffs that need to be made are very different. And as a result, the different libraries servicing these different use cases will look very different.

I suspect this is the reason why these implementations are rarely extracted out more broadly. The sort of system that works well for one situation will rarely work so well for another.

What percentage of lake water could we use prior to literal millennia of engineering effort was put into moving it where we need?

> most of our used water currently comes from

This is technically true today, but barely. Nationwide roughly twice as much water comes from surface as the ground, but it varies dramatically by region. If you live in NY, 90% of your water already comes from the ground. It’s certainly not the case that we’re “locked in” to lakes, rather we are very capable of adapting to local conditions.

"On December 8, 2020, Red Hat announced that they would discontinue development of CentOS, which has been a production-ready downstream version of Red Hat Enterprise Linux, in favor of a newer upstream development variant of that operating system known as "CentOS Stream". In response, original founder of CentOS, Gregory Kurtzer, announced via a comment on the CentOS website that he would again start a project to achieve the original goals of CentOS."

I think the very first paragraph on the about page just about sums it up. It's a production-ready downstream version of Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
> It's not clear to me if 32-bit mode would be axed as well, or if it would be retained (maybe partially).

I've been reading the detailed pdf to see more details. It looks to me like 32-bit mode, specifically in the sense of a 32-bit distribution of modern software, is being retained. Segments would be converted more towards their 64-bit extremely attenuated mode, rather than the more robust functionality they have right now. So most 32-bit software shouldn't be affected, unless you're getting really dirty with the segmentation features or trying to support something like Win16.
