On Linux servers I always uninstall the compiler and dev tools. I actually wrote a little script to dry-run uninstall every single package on the server one by one, and if uninstalling it doesn't remove anything important I'll go ahead an uninstall it.

I'm left with only a bare minimum of stuff, even things like man pages or simple utils I'll uninstall.
Something else strange is that they removed the dropdown option to sort videos in a channel in chronological order ("oldest first").
I disagree, I'm aware of that fallacy and that's not quite what I'm getting at.

I've driven cars for 20 years and my driving has (imo) improved over that time.

I'm at a level where I don't see a reason for me to get into any serious accident by my hand. It's just not going to happen * fingers crossed *.

I know my driving style. I know I'm a safe driver.

Now, why would I give that security over to "FSD", which is clearly a decade (if that) away from being user-ready?

Don't get me wrong, as said, certain automation is cool ... stop/start in heavy traffic, lane assist, cruise control, crash avoidance even ... but beyond that? I'm A-ok ... don't need to introduce the risk from half-baked code (no offense, but that's true at this stage) or AI where we don't really yet know what the output will be (despite being impressive "most" of the time).

Now, I'm speaking about me. You can do what you like. And if you're willing to hand over the reigns of your life to some beta programme, be my guest. Just don't drive in the opposite direction to me for, say, another 10 years. Thanks.
No, not completely cut off from the software tech elevator, you're right, just 90%.

Much better :-)
The weird thing is you can write like that in HTML if you want to.

It’s about what they portray. Read the link I pasted above. I explained why it’s not NVC.
It's also worth bearing in mind that there's been a lot of work put into that scheduler over the years so it will make better decisions about what to run where when the cores aren't all the same.

When you are allotted work, is it in bite size pieces, or are you being given larger more sweeping features?

You seem to enjoy solving more tactical problems and if you are given more strategic problems then perhaps as a first pass you might try to divide and conquer them.

Perhaps you already do that but if not I would try to include that as a fust step.

Let's take a step back for a moment. All of these people involved are working on the language that would/might be one of the big languages in the future. It doesn't fill me with hope.
What you went through must have been really awful, I’m sorry that happened to you. That being said, this sounds like a rare occurrence. I’m sure since then you’ve created some contingency plan especially if there is a potential for a repeat. This actually highlights one of my fears of everything being tied to a phone number because you can never truly own it and it can be canceled or you could be sim-swapped.

The periodic table groups atoms by the number of protons they have and ignores other differences. Uranium 235 and Uranium 238 have the same "natural key" according to the periodic table. The periodic table is useful for solving a lot of problems, and for other problems where it doesn't work to treat U-235 and U-238 as the same, we (and other intelligences) use other ways of categorizing atoms.
For me, death metal is like...black coffee.

Bitter at first, but eventually you learn to appreciate the unique experience for what it is, and then you start drinking it all the time.

You start trying to tell others about your experience, but only other black coffee drinkers seem to understand, and you sound insane to people who have tried black coffee and hated the bitter taste.
It’s a joke. Nobody would fork an entire programming language and maintain it because they thought someone was wrong on The Internet.
This is a volunteer-driven open source community that operates in the relative open, and occasionally you will see how the sausage is made, or some dirty laundry. It's getting attention because that community is producing something popular with a lot of stakeholders, who are not active in the organization but worried about its health and stability.

It's also not completely banal. Designing durable non-profits, governance structures, decision-making processes, policies, etc. is quite complex. You can to some extend evaluate your success by how much public drama you get to avoid. :-) That makes it a case study of interest.

I like that its blind to anything else other than if the household has kids under 5 in it. Doesn't matter their ethnicity/color, gender, income, doc status, etc.

imo more government aid programs and charities should be like that. give to anyone in need or who would otherwise benefit from the given thing

unfortunately I've seen way too many special carve-outs and "allowed" discrimination to happen. which just further fuels political grievances.
How do you factor in skin cancer with this mindset?

This incident in particular doesn't prove that Rust has more zealots.

At no point did I claim it did.

If you're already unfriendly towards the Rust community

Where did I state this?

It seems you are touchy on this front. And it seems as if saying that the rust community has some zealots, upsets you.

Most other dev languages don't even have "communities".
Those are cheap devices.

Yes, before the scientific method (and trial lawyers) were things. We've been paying more attention lately, in case you haven't noticed. There's no 'there' there.
We could go a step further and make licensing mandatory. Anyone can use the work, but they have to pay a part of their profit to the originator if they do. As a side-effect this completely legalizes non-profit fan works.
I'll bet that's due to slow storage, and not the CPU(s); I've done a few handsets and tablets and write performance was a large part of being laggy or not. It's quite obvious when the storage is full and the flash controller spends a lot of time doing RMW ops and halting writes.
Why is Creole better?

To me they look much the same.

Except I prefer Markdown for the looks and how widespread it is.

I was a Wikipedia contributor for many years before Markdown came along, and I think Markdown has a better flavor for hyperlinks. "[link text](url)", "[link text][footnote] + [footnote]: url" are just great. I write like this even without any expectation of rendering it as anything but plaintext.
Their long term concern is that their work on rustc will be undermined by the same people who pulled these shenanigans. Which is a pretty bad situation, and might result in a fork.

I almost certainly spend the majority of my time on an eight year old laptop I keep on my dining room table. I use my office computers for various things--certainly including multimedia--but I'm mostly in a browser and don't need multiple monitors for a ton of stuff. I basically don't use a full-size PC build any longer. The one I have is sufficiently old that my M1 Pro MacBook would run rings around it.
I may misunderstand something here, but I'd assume the organizers of a conference are in charge of deciding which talk goes where. Why is there an expectation for this to be different here?

If I was askwd to give a keynote somewhere and upon presentation of my topic the organization decides another talk is better suited I would trust them that they wouldn't do that lightly.
The token limit depends on the way the training data was encoded, usually its using some sort of sin/cos function which has the problem where longer inputs than it was trained on cause the accuracy to plummet. Its also very likely that it just took the last part of your input as context.
You cared enough to comment on it.

Comments about how someone just doesn’t care about something is the worst kind of comment.
Interplay was bad all around.

They lost BioWare to similar reasons. They cheated on the sales metrics (underreporting sales to Bioware ) on Baldurs Gate and other titles to scam them out their royalties but got caught.

The resulting situation involving lawyers with Bioware walking with the in progress game and IP, the D&D 3.0 title Neverwinter Nights to Atari leaving Interplay without its even more successful innovator and dooming Black Isle.

Fun fact - The master server design for neverwinter multiplayer was to large parts put in place to detect publisher royalty cheating not because of piracy concerns. And sure as hell Atari once tried to sell a large bunch of NWN expansion pack in Germany with copied keys, not understanding that the master server design meant uniquely issued keys rather than the 90s algorithmic ones.

To this day Interplay lives as a zombified parasitic scam organism trying to attach itself to new opportunities every once in a while.
The article says:

> They found that “although general health checks increase the number of new diagnoses, they do not decrease total, cardiovascular-related, or cancer-related morbidity or mortality.”

And then gives a single anecdotal example of a biopsy gone wrong that almost (but didn't) result in a patient's death.

You made a completely orthogonal claim that annual exams *"cost as many lives as they save," which is extremely dubious on the face of it and not supported by the very research you're claiming to cite.
More like a pile of clickbait and quackery. The video from a holistic dentist is enough to invalidate the entire list in my eyes. Holistic dentistry suggests that oil pulling can repair cavities, that cavities disrupt "meridians" in the body and can then cause cancer and other wild ideas. Not to mention the fact that having mercury amalgam fillings removed (a big topic in holistic dentistry) is far more dangerous than having them in your mouth.
Excellent. Yes, exercise is good for your body and mind. Articles like this hit the front page with a regular frequency, and the conclusions seem to boil down to: do some exercises regularly, and walking is the most obvious, built-in exercise humans can do. So go get some steps in!
I think you just misunderstand the point. A lot of criticism of Gemini seems to make the assumption that it's intended to replace HTTP and that it's badly thought through for that use. In fact, I think it basically came from a niche group of Gopher hobbyist users who wanted to fix a few longstanding annoyances with Gopher. They wanted something that anybody could write a client or server for as a fun little weekend project, not something that requires end-to-end 3rd-party-verified proxiable SSL security.

Great to see popular SaaS use cases commoditized and opened up like this. After product categories start to fossilize into a standard UX + features, the benefits of using an expensive vendor start to decrease.

No it's not. The study compared accents from Southerners and standard accents and found Southerners made 20% less. This has nothing to do with New Jersey residents suppressing their accent.

Not so long ago I had to deal with the Austrian version of a Social Security Number and it turns out that using birthdates inside such a number isn't a good idea, since

* Some people doesn't have a birthdate with which the Austrian state agrees

* For those people the Austrian state at least assumes a birthyear with a birthday at January 1st or July 1st

* This leads to overflowing the available numbers for those two dates

* If a date overflows, they get SSN with month "13“. The 13th month can have as many days as needed (so > 31 is possible).

* Now you have SSNs with a month part of e.g 2023-13-32.

Why even bother with birthdates then?
It bears keeping in mind that plenty of other organizations have the same drama, but more hidden from public view. Rust is in the awkward spot of being primarily community driven unlike Go or Java, and also having that community operate mostly in public channels unlike C++. That is ultimately for the best, but it exposes a lot more "mess" to the public.
It might be overblown but still - the guy was invited first-hand to have a keynote and then told that's not happening a short while later. Whatever the reasoning was, the whole thing was very poorly handled. It should have been either throughly discussed before the invite - flip-flopping is the worst-case scenario.
Probably assuming oldest one like archived data and storing them accordingly.

Honestly, this is much cheaper than the US equivalent. Floodgates on New York Harbor have been costed at over $100B.
> is there a law preventing agencies from going somewhere else and killing and stealing as they see fit?

Yes, the laws of the country they go to.

>>International law is kind of complicated, but the basic idea is to not interfere with each other to keep the peace.

How is spying interfering with each other?

> And activly hacking foreign computers is considered interfering

What about passively collecting the information they send to the US?

Utter nonsense. Merkel isn't that naïve. https://www.politico.eu/article/spying-allies-normal-us-denm...
In case anyone wants a quick tl;dr: as the length of a program (expressed as the number of states in a Turing machine) grows, the relative fraction of undecidable programs decreases. In other words, "most" (approaching "nearly all" as they get longer) Turing machines, out of the set of all possible Turing machines of that same size, are actually decidable. (Though this doesn't tell us about whether most real programs are decidable, as the programs humans write also come from a small subset of the universe of Turing machines. But we know that in practice, this is also true).

This relates nicely to the earlier discussion of SAT: while SAT is NP-complete, many instances can be solved in reasonable time. Similarly, we can verify that many actual programs will halt even if the problem is, in general, undecidable.

Are you sure this isn't just an option for some channels to decide if they want it? Some channels definitely still have this sort option available.
TBH, that's a valuable skill.

It's delusional to point and scream about IP-- the knowledge exists and will eventually flow broadly. Singing and dancing around with legal frameworks to try to pretend it belongs to one specific company or country who got their first is just wasting effort trying to unring a bell.

The secret to staying the market leader isn't hoarding patents and copyrights, it's about iterating faster and the quality of execution. But that's hard and requires constant effort, so businesses would rather whine and demand sanctions to try to keep competitors out of their market.

Maybe if the Western world gets bootlegged hard enough, it will force a long-needed reality check about this. We've been able to keep up the global IP charade because the "important" economies agreed to play and imposed various reciprocity treaties on the rest. When you're seeing countries with a historic looser attitude about it achieving economic sovereignity, the sparks are going to fly.

Fred was invited to do a keynote speech. Joe was one of those who campaigned for him to be invited.

Keynote speech was downgraded to normal speech at a late date, allegedly overriding a democratic decision.

Fred flounces off dramatically in response to the downgrading and posts a long rambling blog about it and tweets.

Joe resigns in support announcing it in a response to the tweet.

Joe then posts his reasons with a long rambling blog alleging political shenanigans behind the downgrading.

More discussion ongoing on various media.

Names may have been changed here.

Basically though, alleged politics and possible ego issues on either or both sides - with probably poor comms in the best case - centred here on a conference speaker.

Bear in mind that this is also in the context of Rust which has a history of these sorts of shenanigans.
You sure about that?

Oh wow, so living off the land is the same as "hands-on-keyboard" activity now? They used impacket ffs! This is a very typical post-compromise playbook many actors use. A lot of this might even be considered bad opsec.

This is why it is said that APTs are usually not very sophisticated, they just have a lot of resources.
It's complex but the reductionist explanation is that it is in part due to the euphemism treadmill, and in part etymological origin. "Colored" comes from the era of segregation, while "people of color" comes after.

But don't get too comfortable, as "people of color" will probably phase out soon as well. My money is first on "BIPOC" (as an initialism, usually sounding out the letters), giving way to "bipoc" (as an acronym, lower case, pronounced /baı-pok/). But I'm too white to make that call, just a guess based on linguistics patterns.

Even "BIPOC" is not without controversy. But afaik, no one has proffered an adequate word to describe "folks that have too much melanin to be considered white".

Yeah, the story I remember being told is that power companies originally didn’t want to replace their electromechanical relays so they installed the SEL boxes alongside them and used them as fault locators.

Over time SEL ended up taking over the market though.
You don’t need much fat to absorb vitamin D and amount of fat you eat with the supplement doesn’t really affect the level in your bloodstream: https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/23427007/

“ We conclude that absorption was increased when a 50,000 IU dose of vitamin D was taken with a low-fat meal, compared with a high-fat meal and no meal, but that the greater absorption did not result in higher plasma 25(OH)D levels in the low-fat meal group.”
JeanHeyd Meneide was invited to give a keynote at RustConf. He was not planning on giving a talk at all (can't recall whether he was planning on going to the conference in the first place), and he says he was plenty clear about what he would be talking about, that it's super experimental and somewhat controversial (from a technical standpoint), and and that he didn't want him giving a keynote about it to seem like tacit endorsement of his ideas. The RustConf organisers assured him it would be fine.

Fast forward and the conf organisers advise him that his keynote has been "demoted" to a regular talk. He says this is unprofessional and a lack of respect, cancels his talks, and posts about it. One of the people in the core team (I think?) quit in protest because of how this all happened behind the scenes. This particular post is JeanHeyd's comments on JT's explaining why he quit.
