This is true, misleading and repeated to the point of worthlessness.

There was a big to do among our NATO allies about ramping up their own spending in response to the previous President threatening to pull out of NATO. They want those troops there, under NATO command and especially lately.
I don't recall any problems booting without a network. You used SMIT to configure the networking as opposed to direct networking commands.
> I've never used KDE but remember Windows Aero? Metro? What about macOS's Aqua UI? They use tons of resources and often times when the computer is just a couple years old it becomes unusable with the typical system bloat that occurs.

You're misattributing blame here. Aqua, Aero, and Metro were themselves just UI themes/design languages. They did not cause performance problems. To the underlying compositor it doesn't matter if a button is brightly colored beveled triangle or a flat rectangle. A 32x32px button is 1,024 pixels that need to be drawn to a buffer irrespective of what's in those pixels.

The performance problems in those UIs were almost always related to the compositor and underlying hardware (or drivers for same). Without hardware accelerated drawing, even just 2D acceleration, the compositor was limited by the CPU and memory.

The hardware limitations are only problematic at the margins though. At those various systems' introduction the performance issues were only at the low end. As the "low end" improved performance became a non-issue. Aero sucked when it was introduced because the 3D compositor was enabled on underpowered graphics hardware at the request of OEMs. Aqua ran great on then-new PowerMacs but sucked on the mobile graphics chips in iMacs and all the Mac notebooks of the time.

Yes. That seems ideal to me. Microsoft, Apple, open source contributors. Today what you have is a closed-source translation layer written by the kinds of people who write PC BIOSes, i.e. the biggest idiots in the software industry. I would be much happier with an OS vendor flash storage stack. For all I know, I am already using something like that from Apple. And I assure you that large-scale server builders like Amazon and Google are already doing it this way.

How?

Also do you think US would not remove their troops if the host countries actually wanted to?
At no point in history have we been free from propaganda. I mean various rulers in ancient time claimed that their position was literally ordained by their society’s god(s). I dunno, things aren’t always great, but we muddle along and somebody usually writes down what actually happened, or at least gives the future some hints.
IIRC, There are studies which show a difference, especially in poor latency scenarios.

The issue with HTTP/2 is that it complicates the stack: ideally one would support either HTTP/2 or HTTP/3 but there's little point in supporting both, since you always have HTTP 1.1 to fall back to. HTTP/3 offers best performance, HTTP/1 best compatibility, HTTP/2... doesn't offer that much in comparison.

Ummm, seems to me that 0.42 acres of trees would sequester a lot more that 22kg of CO2 per year.
Let me guesstimate from my typical annual hedge clipping - we have a (appx) 1.5m wide hedge that is (appx) 120m long equal to (appx.) 180m^2=0.044 acres. The annual clipping produces 10 hefty bags (the big bags used to carry e.g. 1 ton of gravel or stones), so maybe a total of 300-400kg for my hedge.
Multiply by ten for 0.42 acres, yields about 3000-4000kg.

Sanity check anyone?
I think their failed energy policy has a lot to do with this
It may depend on the makeup of data or something. They "requested" one of my prior projects go on the enterprise plan after about 50TB, granted the overwhelming majority of transfer was for distributing binary executables so I was in pretty blatant violation of their policy. This was 2015ish, so the limit could also have gone up over time as bandwidth gets cheaper too.
It tells you the company values process over efficacy. Interviewing, like practically any complex task is dynamic in nature. Following down a line of conversation with a candidate provides genuine insight into the individual and cannot be done mechanically.
Sure, but the sort of features I was referring to are more to do with things where one JS engine introduces a new pre-standardization language feature, like async/await. This used to happen a lot, before the standards got ahead of the implementation with E6.

Unlike with browser-embedded JS engines, where "what native APIs are accessible from JS" is a relevant question†, in backend JS runtimes the answer to that question is always "all of them, because they're all just C FFI libraries, and these runtimes use the same C ABI, allowing interoperation with any such library." So for backend runtimes, it's only things to do with the JS engine itself — like language features — where the differences really matter.

† And actually, browser JS engines could have gone this way as well, if NPAPI/PPAPI <object> had caught on. The "Java" in "JavaScript" was supposed to refer to using Java applets as ActiveX-like COM servers which would expose APIs to be scripted against! In other words: a common-standard for native FFI, just with sandboxing.
Some tens of gigabytes at this point? It's definitely not a lot. Mostly just some stuff that doesn't make sense to keep locally but I still want to have a copy in case a disaster strikes.
No. The market and legal system is "adequate".

It might help new viewers to understand that Tarkovsky viewed film as art, not entertainment. As such, he purposely avoided strong narratives or plots, instead focusing on poetry, mood, and time.

From the book "Sculpting in Time" by Tarkovsky himself: "I find poetic links, the logic of poetry in cinema, extraordinarily pleasing. They seem to me perfectly appropriate to the potential of cinema as the most truthful and poetic
of art forms. Certainly I am more at home with them than with traditional theatrical writing which links images through the linear, rigidly logical development of the plot. That sort of fussily correct way of linking events usually involves arbitrarily forcing them into sequence in obedience to some abstract notion of order. And even when this is not so, even when the plot is governed by the characters, one finds that the links which hold it together rest on a facile interpretation of life's complexities."

Weird fact about Stalker, they were shooting in disused USSR factories that had just been left as-is -- a lot of people on set got cancer not much longer after shooting, likely from being around so much industrial waste.

It's also way better than the book it was based on IMO (Roadside Picnic).
It’s also weird not to know about terraform modules. There are a lot of things you _can_ configure because there are a lot of things people need to configure but if you’re using something like https://github.com/terraform-aws-modules/terraform-aws-lambd... it’s only a couple of lines of config for a Lambda.

I’m not an Indian, though I don’t find that paradoxical, since I know how influential the story of Rama and Sita is to the Indian culture. That story is held as the ideal of relations between a husband and wife.

And then there is the story of Krishna and the cow maids.

When you watch the “Indian matchmaking”, you see the parents of the current generation letting their kids find their way, even though they themselves did not. But you also hear about how the older generation met — it’s an arranged marriage, but their parents typically let their kids choose from a small pool of their choosing.
Boomers had it easier? It depends
My quite basic free router from my ISP does exactly that. It plugs into the UTP port on the fiber termination box (no idea how to call that) and handles DHCP for ipv4, while allowing ipv6 auto configuration using a /64 for all devices behind. Seems to work out of the box for both Windows and Apple devices. Only thing is that it automatically firewalls all incoming connections on both v4 and v6, but I think that's a very good default for an ISP device for home use. Especially since everyone is so used to v4 being NATed.
The existence of all these different systems is not very Pythonic.

Worth reading, from the description:

"""Biofire is a Colorado company that has spent the last 5 years or so developing a biometrically authenticated pistol, using both fingerprint and facial recognition systems. The gun is currently in the prototype/pre-production phase, and they are planning to have production models available around the end of the year.

Obviously, there is a wide skepticism about this sort of technology in firearms, and I shared this skepticism when I first spoke with Biofire. The situations in which biometric ID systems could become a liability seem too numerous to count. What convinced me to give the pistol a closer look was Biofire's explicit focus on a particular target market where the technology fills a very real gap in current options: home defense for those with children or other people regularly in the household. For that situation, one must choose between an array of flawed options - trigger locks, rapid access (hopefully) safes, or keeping a gun separated from its ammunition. The idea of having a gun which can be left loaded and immediately accessible but only usable by a few specific individuals is an appealing one."""

It is legal for me to record my own phone conversations (if I give myself my consent to do so!) and I have done so in a couple of cases where I feel it may be necessary to refer to exactly what was said. If I ever have any dealings with Tesla, it seems I should.

If the other party announces it may record your conversation "for quality assurance" or whatever excuse they offer, would that have you covered in jurisdictions requiring two-party consent? Whenever I am told that, I usually reply that I may do the same.
To me it felt like "every little thing," but that was due to a combination of me being defensive + not seeing the value in communication and preventing resentment. Today I'd consider many of those little things to be important.

The statistics on "homeowner stops break-in" aren't as cut and dry as we might think. As I understand it, the studies that gun control activists cite tend to only count "gun used for self defense" if it was actually fired. However, the much more common scenario is that the defender draws a gun and the criminal flees. To me that definitely counts as "homeowner stops break-in".

Fun fact: you only get bludgeoned to death _because_ you own guns. In most of the civilized world, people do not get assaulted in their own home by thieves. Thieves see that you're awake, run away because handling the police is more trouble than it's worth, done.

Sounds like you could find someone with a 1Gbps symmetric fiber net connection, and pay them for it and colo. I have 1Gbps and push that bandwidth every month. You know, for yar har har.

And that's only 309Mbits/s (or 39MB/s).

And a used refurbished server you can easily get loads or ram, cores out the wazoo, and dozens of TB's for under $1000. You'll need a rack, router, switch, and batt backup. Shouldn't cost much more than $2000 for this.

Chicago and San Francisco were about to default on their debts before the mass reduction of American living standards through currency inflation payouts to state and local governments to make these city budgets solvent again in 2020 and 2021. I’m paying dearly for it, we all are, whether you live in San Francisco or not. I like many Americans are being crushed financially to pay off debts that I had absolutely nothing to do with creating and never supported in the first place.
Hmmm. While this has some truth, and I think there is a lot more to it than this, I think I’ll just start practicing letting this go.
I agree. The most important feature of a high level programming language is first class closures with lexical scoping. Almost every design pattern, including the IOC in the original article, can be implemented with them (along with a few other core data structures and primitive operators). By contrast, there are many patterns that are very difficult to implement by hand in c because of the lack of first class closure support (c++ of course is a bit better since it has lambdas, but then you have to opt in to everything else in c++).
Burning coal in winter and turning off safe(!) and paid off(!) nuclear plants sounds like a failure to me.
