Ansible run times are going to vary wildly depending on what's in your playbooks and how fast your nodes are.

In my case, a lot of my VMs share a set of common roles I've been developing over 8 years of using Ansible. The roles span several different OSes and versions, and every play adds time to the run, even if Ansible just skips it or has no action to take. And then third-party roles from Ansible Galaxy typically take even longer to run because they're not optimized for speed either, and they're targeting an even larger set of possible OSes.

You don't have to know how to write Nix to write 95% of all Nix, it's just "JSON with functions" after all. There are definitely advanced things that the Nix and NixOS developers maintain for me.

Just like I don't know how to implement any crypto, or how to implement efficient 3D pathfinding I don't know how to implement NixOS. But I can write a derivation using the helper functions for the language I want to package, which aren't many these days since nixpkgs is huge already.

Not very because air-entrained concrete has very little resistance to crumbling and doesn't handle tensile stress well (which you could fix by adding fibers or some other element that handles tension better, hence reinforced concrete). It has plenty of applications under normal atmospheric conditions but for submersibles you will want something with entirely different properties.
> Almost all cheap / "simple" consumer mains appliances, including non-"smart" microwaves, ovens, alarm clocks, etc. still use mains frequency as their time reference.

I find this incredibly hard to believe. Crystals are incredibly cheap and waaaaaay more accurate than anything that the grid does.

If you're not an actual motor, sensing the grid is both an engineering challenge and a non-trivial expense.

IKEA furniture varies a lot in quality (especially across years) so talking about them as a whole is difficult. I could never get the Bestå doors straight, but the Malms seem pretty sturdy. Lack things (especially the simple end table) looks like they wouldn't survive being assembled the first time, nevermind moving it…

Some movers once mentioned that old IKEA stuff was in general great, then they were terrible, and then they were just okay. Since they resigned Billy about a year ago†, they're probably going to get cheaper again.

This of course depends entirely on how big the codebase is. But the short answer is "yes".
Gender can be relevant, because at many full time universities the students live there and much of the social life is there. A good example was Caltech in 70s and 80s.

When I was started there in the late '70s it was around 85%/15% male/female. Caltech is a hard school. There isn't a lot of time left over to develop much of a social life outside of campus. Whatever social life you had was going to be mostly on campus.

On campus that 85/15 ratio made any kind of normal social life for the majority of the heterosexual male students very unlikely, leading to a lot of unhappy males. It was no picnic for the women either--they sometimes got overwhelmed at the amount of male attention almost constantly on them.

In that kind of environment academics are affected. I knew a lot of people who definitely would have done better in class if they had been at a school that was just like Caltech except with a more balanced gender ratio.

Caltech put a lot of effort in to boost the female percentage. They didn't give women any admissions preference or lower admission standards for women, but they did try to find high school girls who were qualified and convince them to apply to Caltech.

Nowadays they are something like almost 60/40.

Well, "day 1" was an exaggeration, since the first program was arguably written in 1843. And it's not exactly clear when the first commercial computer was put on the market (it depends on how you count).

But, looking back on the earliest times that I was involved with computers -- which predates microcomputers entirely -- all of the software that came with the machines was copyrighted, as evidenced by the copious amount of copyright notices all over everything.

> Richard Stallman's story about software sharing, and him explicitly saying how software was initially free "by default", and how it was companies that invented software copyright, which is the spirit my original comment was intended in.

Taken literally, Richard Stallman is simply wrong here. But I doubt that he meant that all software was free of copyright (simply because it wasn't). In the US, before 1978(?), you had to register your copyright and it was legally possible to intentionally not copyright works. Lots of software did that, so there was certainly software that wasn't under copyright. I suspect that's what Stallman was talking about. The need to file to obtain copyright protection does mean that copyright didn't apply "by default" then. But that's not saying that there wasn't copyrighted software!

There's no such thing as "software copyright", by the way. It's just "copyright", and software doesn't have any sort of special status now, nor did it then.

As to hard info regarding the history of US copyright, there's tons of it available online. You could do worse than reading the various histories and issues the government has at www.copyright.gov.

I don't know .NET enough to comment here, but I'm pretty sure that if you would manage to run bare metal C inside your .NET app (should be possible), it'll destroy all your domains easily. RAM is RAM. The only memory protection that we have is across process boundary (even that protection is not perfect with shared memory, but at least it allows to protect private memory).

At least I'm not aware of any way to protect private thread memory from other threads.

Postgres is C and that's not going to change ever.

Prioritized Load Shedding (SRECon'23 APAC Slides) [pdf]
Honestly, that's pure bullshit. For my machine, Apple advertises 12 hours of web browsing. They document (with a footnote) that those 12 hours were measured with the brightness set to medium (8 steps). With the current available display options, you can set your display brightness to a value which makes it impossible to reach the advertised battery life, and the FTC obviously doesn't come after Apple for that. Why the hell would the FTC start coming after Apple if you could get even less battery time by cranking up the brightness even more?

I don't know what you mean by the CPU being "underclocked", these machines don't have Intel CPUs with a base clock you can compare against. But the MacBook Pro machines are certainly capable of draining their batteries very quickly if you try, and they get quite hot in the process. Because having a whole lot of CPU and GPU compute is the very point of the MacBook Pro line. The battery life while spinning all GPU and CPU cores at 100% is certainly not a core differentiator which is highlighted in their marketing.
It would be a good thing if the people who did make this contraption also didn't make submersible vessels based on the bits and pieces that have made it into the news so far. This sounded like an accident waiting to happen. At those pressures if something goes wrong it will crumple like a tin can and having the hatch sealed from the outside means that even if they didn't die at depth they may not have a way out if their comms have failed. The whole thing strikes me as beyond irresponsible. I wonder if the people that built the sub would take it to depth.

A case could be made... From wikipedia:

He was the original angel investor, first chairman, and second CEO for Apple Computer, Inc., providing critical early funding and managerial support. At the company's founding, Markkula owned 26% of Apple, equivalent to each of the shares owned by cofounders Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak.
At that point aren't we getting into the idea of a multiverse, and not a universe anymore? We have no non-hypothetical knowledge of what exists beyond the limits of the universe as it descended from what we can still see of the radiation shortly after the Big Bang. However, from that radiation, can't we get a ballpark figure for the atomic limits of the Big-Bang-Universe?

In the case of New York it's a foreign country, so I could care less. But if the government sets up from what I understand is a monopoly and then uses that monopoly to sell to another country, of course it should be used to subsidize that same service that the citizens utilize. Otherwise the government is just capturing part of the economy and using it for whatever purposes they desire. Which is in fact, the definition of a tax.
> I'm still perplexed how anyone thinks it is OK for a public utility to pay "dividends". If a public utility is paying dividends, it must be collecting more income that it's expenses. That obviously comes from ratepayers. In any other world that'd be a tax.

If it's ok for a utility to be publicly subsidised (and I think it is) then by the same token it's ok for it to contribute to the public purse. Setting rates as a matter of public policy means rate revenue might end up being more or less than the cost of supply. So what?
I probably will try it again, or go back to Lineage OS depending on how my other attempts go. It does irk me to use Android, and then not be able to use Netflix, banking apps, etc, etc. At some point, it's literally just easier to use Linux+Firefox.
You don't even need that, there is a much more efficient way in a language that supports let-bindings (but not letrec):

let f' = func(f, g, other_args...) {
// ...
g(f, g, whatever...);
// ...
};

let g' = func(f, g, other_args...) {
// ...
f(f, g, whatever...);
// ...
}

let f = func(other_args...) { return f'(f', g', other_args...); }
let g = func(other_args...) { return g'(f', g', other_args...); }

That's basically just closure conversion, only instead of doing it the compiler backend, you do it manually yourself.

I guess it would depend on the reason for denial to a patient. If it is solely because it isn't regulatory approved yet then that doesn't seem sufficient.

Huh, I did not know the person making the complaint is a Bolsonaro supporter. Still, I expect that Brazil has lawful intercept (LI) regulations and enforces them on telcos and ISPs.

Also, by "ground stations" I mean downlinks that are part of Starlink's infrastructure, and that would be connected to an LI system. Not user terminals. As far as I know, there are no "rogue" telecom providers that do not observe LI requirements.

The first generation satellites can't communicate with each other. The newer ones can, which means they can cover territory that has no ground stations by relaying traffic to satellites that can see a ground station. This is a big obvious advantage for Starlink but it complicates LI somewhat. It does not make it so difficult that Starlink or the countries it operates in could not do LI on Starlink.
Makes sense, I'm sure that there are many on RPM-based systems that would enjoy a quick win like rpm-ostree.

because the prescribed paths work for a larger population. it doesn't need ingenuity, and less luck. hence why it is generic advice.

Which part of the US? It's so dramatically different from city to city, state to state.

Software developer or equivalent income capable tech job, remote, university city/town. It's a fairly easy set-up (unless you're already very rooted somewhere). They're relatively inexpensive to live in (you can actually buy a real house at $100k per year!), and there are tons of safe choices (specifically with a low murder rate). Primary downside is far weaker food/nightlife/etc. vs what you get in major cities.
Yeah, it isn’t so much that I want publishers to have a cheaper way of making an audiobook that avoids the (apparently minimal) cost of employing a voice actor.

I don’t want to wait for the publisher to decide they want to do an audiobook.

"give it back" - to whom?
I mentioned it elsewhere - though not that I've learned it the hard way - that IKEA instructions have extremely good attention to details. Yes, some warnings would've been useful, but after being burned by it once, I realized that if you look carefully, all elements are drawn both to scale, and accurate with respect to shape and attachment points - meaning, the steps are actually unambiguous, but you have to pay attention to those tiny details, sometimes 1mm or less in size.
Going from kids at 35 to kids at 23 sounds like a bridge too far to me. Your points about having kids later are fair enough, but kids at 23 basically means giving up any opportunity to have a life of your own as an adult. You're going from being a kid yourself directly to being a parent.

To each their own, but I doubt this would be a good idea for most people (or their kids). 28-32 range seems like a more reasonable compromise. Then you at least get your 20s (or most of them) to have some fun, figure yourself out, get your career going, have a failed relationship or two, etc. before taking on 1000% more responsibility and limiting yourself in many different ways.

Also, just speaking for myself personally, I'm 38 (with a 4 year old) and actually feel healthier and more energetic now than I did during my 20s due to taking diet, exercise, sleep, and other health/lifestyle things much more seriously. I don't know if I'll continue to feel this way into my 40s, but I guess my point is that age definitely isn't the only factor--I'm not even sure it's the most important.
