Let’s flip it around a bit. Apple not allowing developers to make side loaded apps means that those who don’t like this situation don’t have to develop mobile apps. It just means those developers lose mobile customers. That’s how competition works.

Having a single app store that enforced policies brings consumers peace of mind. I don’t think it’s worthwhile to change that. What will happen is that bad actors will end up having an easier time engaging in shenanigans.
"yeah but you might fail and then your life is destroyed" is not exactly a new take on the issue.

this is in fact what 99% of people will tell you in real life if you try it.

10 years later those same people will either forget they said anything, or pretend they were on your side all along if you make it.
I evolved over the decades. I started out releasing most of my projects under a copyleft license. Then I switched to an open source license. Now, I'm mostly back to copyleft.

I switched back largely because of the popular confusion about what "open source" actually is, and also because modern open source advocates have come to think that "open source" means that there's an overt collaboration aspect to it. In my projects, there is not. So it's easier to avoid the mess and just go with copyleft.

On macOS, `cal -m 1` prints out January 2023. The man page reads "-m month Display the specified month." Googling for man pages gives other usages for the `-m` switch (like https://linux.die.net/man/1/cal) so it probably depends on system.
It works! (of course it does)

This is all very interesting. Next is poking around in it for a bit.

Thanks so much.

I arrived at exactly the same conclusion, but I use Notes for my todo list (I like mixing checklists and notes in one document) and leaving reminders for… you know, reminders.

I honestly enjoy it less than some of the more complex plain text systems I’ve used/built in the past but it has the advantage of actually being practical for me.

- the campaign remains suspended and I can no longer email those contacts unless I delete, and re-add them
I have to agree with the iPhone camera in bright settings. It doesn’t look good.

Admittedly it can look better than my digital camera with default settings but I can dial some manual settings on my digital camera and the photos will come out really good.

It really comes down to managing dynamic range when you are technically limited in capturing it.

A lot of people like film because because highlights roll off instead of being linear with clipping like digital, but you can get way better results with digital if you know what to do. Unfortunately I hate how the iPhone camera does it.

What W3C is doing is correct. It is republishing our copy of the RSS specification under the terms of the Creative Commons Attribution/Share Alike license and using our preferred authorship credit: RSS Advisory Board with a link to https://www.rssboard.org/.

The RSS Advisory Board has published the RSS 2.0 specification for 20 years. Over that time we have revised it 10 times, mostly in minor ways such as to fix a broken link.

The board began publishing the spec under a Creative Commons Attribution/Share Alike license when Dave Winer was still a member. It is redistributable under the terms of that license forever.

Winer wrote this on his blog in 2003:

"On July 15, UserLand Software transferred ownership of its RSS 2.0 specification to the Berkman Center for Internet & Society at Harvard Law School.

"Berkman then placed a Creative Commons license on the spec, allowing it to be customized, excerpted and republished. ...

"The spec can circulate freely thanks to the Creative Commons."

They actually just cut their rates, while Duke raised them.

No surprise to me that Duke is publicly traded and more expensive.

Which reminds me of when I was 19 and was stopped by the police for what I assumed was hitchhiking - since I had just walked up a hill from the highway where I had been dropped off after hitching home from college for the weekend.

Alas, the reason he stopped me (which he never mentioned of course) was that I looked very close to the description of someone who had just robbed a bank in my home town.

By the time I got to my parents house, everyone in town had "heard" I had been arrested for bank robbery thanks to a few folks with police scanners.

Perhaps I'm jaded but taking life advice from the WSJ seems a little odd.
First of all, most of this piece is self-acceptance repackaged as 'everything is alright' style thinking. Everything is not alright for many people. Things are objectively worse for a lot of folks and suggesting things are just meant to be is just lazy.

Self-acceptance though is totally good to practice. I would go back in time and do more work on myself so I could accept the good things in my life faster with more integrity. But I can't, so I have no choice to but to accept that maybe I'll be a slightly older father. I can't actually change that but I also am not under any illusions that being an older parent would be better, all else being equal. That's just absurd. All else isn't equal though. I personally think siring a child at ~50 is fine but only if you think you'd be a better parent.
> What do you think society would look like if you just did away with all the modern conveniences and the "ruling class".

You're drawing an association the ruling class and modern conveniences. Those are two incredibly different things.

I have a really hard time believing that because a small group of people have a disgusting amount of wealth, somehow modern conveniences are "divined" from that
> Originally, all software was "free software", since the concept of software copyright didn't even exist.

Take it from a graybeard, this is absolutely not true. "Software copyright" has always been a thing, from day 1. Early on, it didn't really affect things too much, but most software was under copyright.
I actually had a decent experience with their support on my Pixel 1 with shoddy bluetooth. It was one call to tech support and they basically just said it isn't worth troubleshooting and arranged the entire replacement on the spot. It was a big reason why I went with a Pixel 3 and Pixel 6 on my upgrades.

Why we got the run-around treatment with my wife's device? Unsure. But I'm not willing to play those games down the line so we're going to find other devices on next replacement.

I disagree out of principle; I've been in half a dozen rewrite projects during my career (currently in one too); while I will concede that sometimes it's a good call, it's also a really expensive one.

At least with a deep refactoring, if done right, the product continues to make money. In hindsight, I should've spent that 2.5 years at my previous job refactoring, optimizing and modernizing the existing PHP + Dojo codebase, instead of try to rewrite it in Go + React.

Sure, the API was a factor 100 faster, the UI was faster and more responsive, the whole thing was future-proof for the next decade. But after 2.5 years I was only about 20-30% there in terms of feature parity. The existing codebase was one guy over the span of 7-8 years. I asked for reinforcements but never got them, only after two years did they carefully start putting up ads on e.g. monsterboard. You can see why I called it quits.
YMMV, but I have succesfully moved such a wardrobe (disassembled, obviously - I pulled all the nails out and removed the "flimsy" back, then removed and packed the rest of the frame). It survived just fine.

Sorry to read about your illness. Without knowing specifics, it is sometimes possible to get access to trial drugs via a compassionate use exemption[0].

You could find out which centers close to you are part of the trial, and contact them about getting access to treatment.

I've previously contacted a drug manufacturers directly to inquire about access via a trial center. This was for a pancreatic cancer drug made by Halozyme. The trial was ultimately halted due to disappointing results.

Please take into account that a drug still in trial may ultimately fail to meet its endpoints, as in the above case.

It’s the “anti-Pokémon”. I’d say stealing Pokémon instead of catching them in the wild is the main difference, but the soundtrack was very “unlike the others” (strong rock vibes), the mechanics of doubles battles and colosseum “tournaments”. That you yourself were a criminal was unique too.
Yes, that's a great example of a success story. However, other drugs have gone through the same process and were eventually found to not be as effective as during the trial; or worse, they were found to be dangerous.

Aside from the threat to the patients, there's the opportunity cost of such "misfires."

In the US, we can upon death donate our organs to others in need. We can also, again upon death, donate our bodies to science. Yet while alive, we can't decide to help ourselves, and ideally others as well? That doesn't make sense.

> Is there a magical force of nature that automatically transforms any device with a sufficiently powerful CPU into a general purpose device?

It doesn't need to be "turned" into a general purpose device. It already is. That's its nature. It's Apple who turned it into an "appliance" by artificially limiting what programs you can run on it. It quite literally is a general purpose computer that can run any program except the ones Apple doesn't like.

This is merely child's play, by the way. The future will no doubt feature governments wanting in on that action. Computers are subversive, after all. Encryption alone can make a mockery out of police and courts. They absolutely love the concept of a computer that runs only software that doesn't harm them.
imagine when they have robots indistinguishable from humans, with some sort of real skin face that can be morphed to any existing or non existing face. I mean, it almost seems easy, or inevitable at least.

To me it's quite obvious this is just government condoned theft. The police and politicians involved should all be ashamed of themselves. And then frankly they should be punished.
Zitadel co-founder here.

We support multiple approaches for multi-tenancy.

In a typical setup you will only need an instance (a virtual Zitadel system).
This already supports B2C and B2B deployments.

If you want to host multiple customers, fully isolated, you could create an instance for each customer. However this is only necessary if you want to become a Zitadel service provider in most cases ;-)

Some docs for this:

Organization vs Instance: https://zitadel.com/blog/multi-tenancy-with-organizations
Instance: https://zitadel.com/docs/concepts/structure/instance
Organization: https://zitadel.com/docs/concepts/structure/organizations

Hope this helps!
You make a valid devil's advocate position!

Personally, its about pushing back on the ever increasing tide of not owning your own device, and using it as you see fit.

I just can't understand why so many are against a feature that they don't have to use.

RAID10 for 22TB disks with only two drives at "1" level? I would expect no less than 3 drives at such capacity. Otherwise there is a huge chance to lose the second drive while 1. changing the disc (=time, could be even days) and 2. replication.

What are your thoughts on implementing RAID 0 over four RAID 1 arrays, each consisting of three disks, resulting in a total of 12 drives?
In the past, it was solved this way.

A heavy contactor powers on stage 1, stage 1 powers another heavy contactor powering stage 2, stage 2 does the same with stage 3.

When mains voltage is too low, the contactor cannot close. This way this allows for tens of milliseconds of separation in between power ons.
Yes?

Why not?

You seem to think that those proposing this don't recognize we're pushing for a massive shift in how things work, that will disrupt many areas significantly.

We recognize that just fine. There are ways to mitigate the harm from that disruption.

It's absolutely clear to us that even if we don't mitigate that harm, the system afterward will be much more just and much more kind and humane than the system we have now.
Of course it will. That's better than continue working with damaged memory structures and unpredictable consequences. For database it's more important than ever. Imagine writing corrupted data because other thread went crazy.

It probably is, but because games are such a new medium, the rate it’s advancing (not just in terms of tech, but also in design and audience expectations) is quite rapid. It means if you work on a single game for a few years, by the time you release it the demands of the market may have changed dramatically.
LightSolver are shameless charlatans and scammers of the highest order. We may one day see both founders in jail for defrauding their investors.

Let's just look at two of their false claims:

> Taking on the “3-Regular 3-XORSAT Challenge,” LightSolver solved the problem in polynomial time, while all other state-of-the art classical and quantum computers solved it in exponential time.

That is absolutely 100% false in numerous ways.

First of all, they solved this in a simulation, not on their actual LightSolver hardware. So that means that classical computers can solve this problem in polynomial time just fine. Their hardware is totally superflous.

That's not at all surprising because 3R3X is solvable in cubic time with Gaussian elimination or conjugate gradient methods! It's a thorny problem for a class of optimizers, but it poses no problems in general.

Everything they say is just a lie. For example "Faster than TensorFlow". Then you click, and it's a paper comparing their method to one particular max-sat solver implemented in TF, RUN-CSP. And they implement a totally different approach, again, as a simulator on a classical computer. Which then turns out to be faster (not surprising, RUN-CSP is not state of the art in performance, nowhere near). In no sense does this mean they're faster than TF. They're just lying.
There have actually been some papers on "better than SOTA" TTS speech models with shockingly good inflection, emotion, voice imitation and such.

But the orgs behind them say they are hesitant to release them due to obvious misuse concerns. And I think the unspoken concern is that the datasets are not clean.
I used Plasma 5 with i3 instead of kwin [1] with 2 monitors for a while. Never really need to use the mouse when you don't want to. That is the whole reason I use i3 to begin with. It was fine. But I went back to normal i3. I just don't need all that desktop environment stuff. I don't know if I would recommend it, but it was doable.

I don't know about transitions or anything. I don't use transitions, so ... no idea. i3 just instantly switches between monitors or workspaces etc, though maybe someone has implemented transitions like they did with gaps? Again, no idea.

In our office we were so over the rated current for the building that after the breaker tripped (which it inevitably did) it wasn't possible to just switch it back on. The moment you did all the servers and PCs went back on and it tripped again. You'd have to go around and pull out plugs all over the office then switch the breaker, then switch them all back on one by one. We also had regular electrical fires. Those were the good old days.

> It seems like you are getting caught up in the name of "query language" which may be partially a misnomer. It's more like a data fetching protocol

Yes, I gave multiple definitions and that’s one of them (2). While that’s certainly true, is that how it’s used in practice and sold? All popular frameworks I’m aware of are selling themselves as having automatic db resolvers with SQL dbs. And thus fast frontend iteration. N+1 solution. Etc.

> It's the server code logic to implement permission check

Isn’t that very difficult to do? Resolvers have recursive relations that can be very tricky to secure, since it’s a high abstraction level. So you tend to rely on RLS or another system to be configured, no?
Better to be just a bit financially cautious to avoid being caught out. At least they're not over-leveraged and underwater.

First, a clarification: a kilowatt-hour is not a kilowatt per hour (1 kwh = 3.6 * 10^6 joules). Same goes for megawatt-hours. There's no such thing as a "900Mwh" reactor - it's a 900 megawatt reactor. During an hour, it'll produce 900Mwh* (3.24e+12 joules) and can smelt 16363 kg of aluminum. Behold the power (pun intended) of dimensional analysis.

Secondly, you're not wrong, the way that aluminum is smelted is by melting e.g. bauxite or another aluminum compound, and then electrolyzing the resulting fluid to extract pure aluminum. Usually the same electrodes are used for both operations. It's the very grandest scale of electrochemistry, and the reason that aluminum smelting plants are nearly universally located near cheap and highly available power sources.

* Something close to 900Mwh, anyway, given that reactor nameplate capacity is not always the actual running power or peak possible output, plus an allowance for maintenance. Other power sources have different capacity factors that would result in something below 900Mwh, but a typical fission plant is "up" continuously for our purposes
