> I currently run two daemons in a vnet jail to get a separate network for those daemons, but chrooted to /

When you do this, do the jails/chroots act like separate overlays on top of / to the daemons?

For example, if you use systemd-nspawn or systemd-run, you can run daemons in containers that get their own view of /, but writes take place in separate overlay file systems.

I'm curious how that compares with what you're doing with jails.

To be fair to the orcas, boats do seem to be awful for them. At the Seattle aquarium there's tons of information about how the noise from boats makes hunting much more difficult for orca pods. This was a sailing vessel but maybe they're unable to distinguish? Or maybe it was running it's motor, most sailing vessels of sufficient size have on board motors.

This is a pretty pedantic debate but my reason for using it was that I think a factor in this wasn’t just generic anti-Asian sentiment but also the idea that they were new and challenging the image of the United States as a white country. California politics had a nasty “yellow horde” streak which feels distinct from, say, bigotry directed against native Americans or, in the south, Mexicans which tended to recognize their historical presence, treating them as kind of hapless children needing white guidance rather than invaders.
Peripheral to this, some of my best refactors have come from trying to document why we can’t do X, explaining that we can’t do X because of Y, and realizing that Y does not need to exist.

Hercules is an odd pick for a vintage board recreation. Did the original card have anything that made it particularly special or interesting?

Hercules Plus supported changing the text font without burning a ROM. As someone who never liked the original IBM PC font, that would have been a welcome feature before it came to EGA/VGA.
The point is that not tipping is implicitly endorsing minimum wage as acceptable for the role, since the only possible way for these employees to make a living is through tips.

The fact that the employer is required to pick up the slack is of little consolation, and certainly not a reason to assume that not tipping is ok. This rule would be more meaningful if minimum wage was a meaningful number.

Put more simply: until there are broader changes to tipping culture, it is perfectly understandable that people expect a tip.

That is not to say that entitlement doesn’t exist, and I’ve had a server or two get upset for a middling tip after mediocre service. But it would be similarly entitled to assume that the minimum wage fallback somehow makes not tipping acceptable.

(None of this should be construed as an endorsement of tipping culture).

Yes. I agree with this but wanted to point out that PR residency comes with attractive incentives for wealthy people and many have elected to take advantage of those incentives.

Puerto Rico also has had corruption problems that may or may not be linked to the classical problems of people appointing friends to positions, inefficient allocation of resources such that wealthier areas are better maintained and have more of the ear of the government when it comes to acquiring resources to keep things maintained. Nothing involving governments is ever totally perfect or fair so there will always be a situation where it is who you know that counts.

After Maria, the federal response to the destruction was inefficient and inadequate to restore things to their previous state. As you find in any disaster on the mainland, the cleanup operations failed to vet contractors to insure that those doing the work actually had experience managing a complex process like hurricane cleanup and as a result there was massive waste. That's become the normal condition for US post-disaster operations so this is not a knock on PR at all.

I would love to visit. I have read a lot about it. One day it might happen. Good luck to all who choose PR as their home.

> the entire British system is super confusing and filled with technicalities and edge cases

On the front of my my first passport (issued in 1968) was the legend "BRITISH SUBJECT". Back then I could barely read, but even when older I didn't really notice it. A few years ago I ran across the passport in my parents' house and thanks to the web was able to look up what it meant: nothing. I apparently did "have" that status but it gave me no rights, privileges or even obligations. Just junk wording on the document.

This was an Australian passport. Though the passports no longer say that on the front, the Queen's name is still inside mine; I suspect that when I renew it in another six years her son's name will unfortunately appear inside.

You can't because the certs are on the device in a secure enclave. Unless you let Google/apple/Microsoft back them up to their cloud. Then you need to hope you don't lose access to that too when you're device was lost. Or you can just have multiple devices/security keys in case this happens.
Yeah looks very promising. Naively, it multiplies computation time by a factor of 20x though? If they are taking 5x samples per step, and multiple steps per problem.

As this gets explored further, I believe we will start finding out why human minds are constructed the way they are, from the practical/necessity direction.

Wouldn't you also have have the grapefruit at about the same time everyday, and take the affected drugs at the same time everyday?

From what I've read there are two ways grapefruit interferes with medication.

1. For some drugs, such as statins, those drugs are broken down by certain enzymes. Grapefruit interferes with those enzymes, resulting in more of the drug circulating in your body. In effect it is as if you took a larger does of the drug.

2. For some drugs, fexofenadine is a common example, those drugs rely on certain transporters that move the drug into cells. Grapefruit interferes with those transporters, resulting in less of the drug reaching cells. In effect it is as if you took a smaller dose of the drug.

It sounds like this would be sensitive to timing.
They renamed it that when they pushed into the IEC standards process (the same standards body in charge of CCS standards), so it isn't entirely doublespeak, but a clear sign of intent for the standard.

It's very very unlikely that chickenpox vax will eliminate Alzheimer's, both in terms of chickenpox vaccine effectiveness, as well as there are almost certainly non-VZV "causes" for Alzhiemer's.

But yes, it's quite likely that widespread chickenpox vaccine will help reduce Alzheimer's rates.

It'd probably be a few more decades before you'd expect the cohort that received childhood chickenpox vaccines to reach an age where we'd see siginficant rates of Alzheimer's. Even then, it would it'd probably be quite difficult to disentangle.
I can't think of many people who've learned to program to fix a bug that's bothering them. and learning to program in your free time is much easier than switching careers, getting a PhD and securing funding for your lab.

I was handed a problem during a job interview that was a "how do you get a computer to do this?" problem. Apparently I was the only one who attempted, and the general consensus is that no, you need a human being to do it.

So I sometimes divide problems into "Can a human do it or not?"

(Years later I would finally have the inklings of how to get a computer to do it. It would be quite complex but I think it might actually be feasible. A lot of subconscious introspection happened.)

This is very cool despite the most important caveat:

“Note that we do not directly compare with prior methods that take Minecraft screen pixels as input and output low-level controls [54–56]. It would not be an apple-to-apple comparison, because we rely on the high-level Mineflayer [53] API to control the agent. Our work’s focus is on pushing the limits of GPT-4 for lifelong embodied agent learning, rather than solving the 3D perception or sensorimotor control problems. VOYAGER is orthogonal and can be combined with gradient-based approaches like VPT [8] as long as the controller provides a code API.”

I think the whole reason articles like this are common is that one can easily calculate these numbers from visa statistics, i.e. number of people who didn't get a job within the grace period. Naturally these kinds of statistics can be a bit off, for example someone might transition to another type of visa instead of seeking work.
The dry weight is a misnomer which avoids the inconvenient facts. The Tesla requires large amounts of hard to obtain Lithium, Nickel and Cobalt.

Counter point: the gearbox in the Turbo 99s & 900s is notorious for breaking because the construction of it was originally spec'd out for the torque of the non-turbo engine and Saab never revisited this when it put a turbocharger on the engine. So the gears can break under the additional torque.

Also one of the reasons, as I discovered, why the 900 is sadly not a good candidate for EV conversion. The transaxle would just break to pieces if you put the torque of an electric motor on there. Especially considering for a car like that you'd want something sporty.

> Interesting that the post's linked article does not even mention real, effective, and saved user/groupIDs.

Even worse, the article doesn't even mention TIOCSTI, which is another big reason, you should not use `su` this way (see e.g. https://www.errno.fr/TTYPushback.html).

The program run under su keeps the same TTY and can use the TIOCSTI ioctl to push data back into the TTY input buffer. When the program exits and the parent reads from stdin, it receives those bytes. If the parent happens to be a root shell from which you dropped privileges using su, you have a problem.

Technically the process can be started before a candidate is even in the US or finished entirely before they arrive.

As someone going through the process right now, PERM is taking on average 12 months and the PWD has taken 6 months.

A request for evidence on PERM will extend that to 18 months on average and I-1485 is closer to 12 months but can be 18-24 months even if you are not from India/China.

Abolishing the country cap for Green Cards is something that should be done in tandem with either increasing the number of Employment Based Greencards or recapturing those that have been abandoned. Otherwise you just make the backlog everyone country's problem.

There are some steps they could take to make things easier like automatically sending EAP and AP when a I-140 is approved. It's ridiculous that these documents take so long to be issued.

Really though the United States should move to a points based system for Employment Immigration. If you look at EB3 it's a low bar compared to Canada/Australia. A points based system that is fast tracked like Canada's would be preferred to convoluted mess we have today.

Most of the buzz about .NET Native AOT is focused on things like startup time for compiled executables in cloud environments. For good reason.

But Native AOT also supports compilation to libraries with a C ABI, including both shared libs and static. My blog series tends to lean in that direction, talking about interoperability.

Some of the posts talk about very fundamental things. Some of the later posts give mention to a (somewhat experimental) binding generator I've been working on, using CLR metadata to automatically create glue and projections for other languages like Rust and TypeScript.

In general, interop between C# and other languages has been possible for a long time, but Native AOT allows it to be done without hosting a CLR, and as the feature matures, I think that'll make it more interesting for some use cases.

I’ve seen this type of thing in vanilla js vs react projects. Where there was a fine vanilla js implementation, but it was abandoned by maintainers to do a react version.

Or a new frontend package is built for react by default rather than vanilla js, (or a very light set of js dependencies) even if it easily could have been.

And my experience is that react has been corruptive to the vanilla js ecosystem as a result.

It’s a bit of a reverse from node->deno but I could easily see how deno would be stunted or affected in an unknown but possibly not great way by this.

All that said, Deno has had to pivot because node seems to have gotten its act together to some extent. At least compared to when Deno set out.

So as a practical user acquisition need, not want but need, Deno had no choice but to do this. And the decision to go down this path was made quite a while back, iirc.

I remain hopeful for Deno and the team behind it. Frontend tech is very competitive.

The thrashing across the frontend stack that backend folks recoil from has made things stronger and there’s a lot of talent at work.
