It's an interesting question. (One of very few on this subject that are really interesting.)

Those who cause progress to happen to some extent have to have something in them that causes them to ignore conventional wisdom. Because they're swimming against the current. And if they succeed it may well pay off, both in credits and financially.

Montgolfier brothers, Lilienthal, the Wright brothers and so on, and that's just a small slice of aviation. Every one of them went against conventional wisdom and the laws of physics as they were known or suspected to be at the time.

But there is a final arbiter, and those are the real laws of nature, and it's first order derivative: materials science. And this is where it gets much more complex. To design something that can work is an accomplishment in itself, even if it works only once. That one mr. Rush can chalk up as a victory. Where he fails is to take into account the fact that safety knowledge is written in blood and that the difference between 'device safe enough to take passengers on' and 'device safe enough that I, the builder/designer will travel on it' is very, very large. And if all of the industry, including some of your own employees say that you are doing it wrong and you still persist, and risk the lives of others then you are crossing over into irresponsibility, rather than being a pioneer.

Whether or not he realized this himself seems a foregone conclusion: he likely thought this was all perfectly safe and those others were needlessly concerned but they were simply more aware of the real risks involved than he was. Fine line between 'god complex' and 'innovator'.
With the pressures involved, nothing that remains could be identified as a human body. Everything within the ship got rapidly squished and disintegrated.
Is that really the best phrasing for the title, today? Like, particularly today?
Apparently the package versions don't match and the order they are released don't match RHEL, so it is not possible to be sure a package that works on CentOS Stream works on any given version of RHEL.
Hmm, but human body is mostly solids and liquids, not very compressible. Their lungs and airways, sure, would be compressed to nothing, but what of the rest of their bodies?

Eg I'd imagine the poor souls on the Titanic next door are not crushed by the pressure, for the same reason.

Or with scuba diving, deep scuba is complicated and dangerous for many reasons, but the pressure compressing the body is not one of them.
Insanely high pressures resulting in insanely high temperatures, instant incineration, followed by a supersonic wall of water smashing everything happening in a small number of milliseconds - faster than anything the mind could perceive.
Upon rereading the quote I noticed the use of "in a resurfaced interview". I wonder if that was an intentional jab.
To be honest I think this is almost a trick question, because you're combining two very different things (speed of light and performance of computers), and people are not very good at combining these sort of contexts intuitively (i.e. you need to do the calculations).

The other day I was watching The Twilight Zone, and one episode involves a crew "655 million miles" from Earth. I know what miles are, I know the rough layout and scale of the solar system, galaxy, and universe, but I had no idea how far away that actually is because it mixes these two units from very different contexts and intuitively it just doesn't make sense to me; is it still in the solar system? No idea. Converting it to AU showed it's about 7 AU, which put it in the appropriate context: a bit beyond Jupiter.
> Like many collections, they omit The Two Noble Kinsmen due to unclear authorship, and for this reason I’m omitting it from my list as well.

Isn't it accepted that The Two Noble Kinsmen was a collaboration?

EDIT:

Personally, I liked the (less faithful) 1948 film.

I also found it amusing that the play he liked the best is the only Shakespeare play I've actually acted in (before his favorite adaptation came out).
Respectfully, I’m not allocating those funds myself. I share your frustration about the unequal devotion of resources to helping people. But that doesn’t mean that these people aren’t worth saving, or grieving.
I believe other manufacturers do use other sensors besides radar... but that's still a relatively pedantic question about the efficacy of a single safety feature. It still isn't an apt comparison to the reportedly sloppy design of the Titan sub.

If Tesla decided to make their suspension entirely out of carbon fiber despite knowing carbon fiber handles stress cycles differently and tends to fail catastrophically at the limit then you'd have an apt comparison.

Or you can look at the Boeing 787's carbon fiber body design as an example of how to do something completely differently. They deviated from the norm but that involved years of engineering and testing to identify potential failure points, how operating conditions impact the service life, etc. They designed inspection schedules and procedures for out of spec events like excessive G-forces, hard landings, explosive decompression, over-pressurization due to pack failure, and so on. All of these things are well known with aluminum airplane bodies but not for carbon fiber.

So a 787 operator knows if they have an explosive decompression event exactly what needs to be checked and how many flights to shave off the expected service life.

From what we know right now Titan had a unique hull design yet did absolutely none of the engineering or testing legwork before putting paying passengers inside. That is what makes them reckless and Boeing or Tesla not so much.
2020 M1 Air Asahi edge user here. 3.5mm headphone jack audio does indeed work! Everything is buttery smooth for me. Video, trackpad, battery life, Bluetooth mouse... they all work swimmingly. Biggest downsides at the moment:

- no HDMI out

- no built-in speakers

- bluetooth audio wonkiness

KDE Plasma really shines on this machine. Much love and gratitude to the Asahi team.

Sometimes support - for the OS or from applications - is actually useful. I worked at a shop once that ran CentOS for most things but RHEL for the database servers, because the vendor only officially supported that.

Talk about burying the lead! This is a deliberate and downright sleazy attempt to downplay the breach.
An important detail is that the state has been condemned for that.

This goes to show that France is not a totalitarian regime. The government fucked up, justice, as an independent power punished it and the illegally detained suspect is now free. The whole story is freely reported by French media.

So is it bad: yes. Is it tolerated and are dissenters being silenced: no.

For the rest, we will have to wait until the trial, but if the accusers don't have anything better than the use of Signal and uBlock, it probably won't end well for them, even if they represent the government.

VR developer here.

Politics aside, nobody should ever choose Unreal Engine for standalone VR anyways. It's clear that Epic doesn't prioritize VR, so it's more easily explained as an efficient use of resources.

In concrete terms, Unreal Engine's VR support is awful; you can't get a good looking game running at high framerates on mobile hardware with it. Its forward renderer is severely lacking on mobile VR, and deferred is untenable.

I don't want Unity to be as dominant as it is, but it's the only sane choice for VR. Epic is very clearly not interested in being a leader in this area.
I like having a config file like:

host thatmachine.example.org
port 9991
dbhost server.example.org

... which I can definitely parse myself. But it's also valid Tcl, if host/port/dbhost are defined proc's!

So this allows people to be able to create config files like:

set mydomain example.org
host thatmachine.$mydomain
dbhost server.$mydomain
if {$mydomain == example.org} {
port 12345
} else {
port 9991
}

I don't expect people to create huge programs in their config files, but being able to give them a "full-blown programming language" for free is sometimes desirable.
Not sure about decompression, after all they started at normal pressure before the incident so they wouldn't have unreasonable amounts of gasses in theur bodies that could expand to huge volumes when pressure lessens.
Same here.

Imho MSFT overestimates the loyalty of video game fans to a game franchise vs a console ecosystem. Even if the deal should go through and even if it should result in - let's say - CoD being exclusive to Xbox, I don't think a lot of fans would then switch away from Playstation just for that.
Exactly. Same reason that, even setting aside basic humanitarian ethics, it made sense for fire departments from all over America to send their crews to help out after 9/11 even though the victims didn't fund them; the experience is well worth the expense.
Oculus Quest wasn't the first commercial HMD with inside-out tracking.

Windows Mixed Reality headsets came out October 2018 with inside-out tracking. Oculus Quest came out May 2019.

The Vive technically could do camera passthrough, but I never saw anything actually supporting it well and it wasn't very high quality at all. The Vive Pro which also released before the Quest even had two cameras for stereoscopic passthrough.
Probably a pretty bad test of the _actual_ speed of grep. A more realistic test would have printable characters and frequent newlines. I wouldn't be surprised if all those bytes were just taking a fast-path shortcut somewhere.
The NTSB is responsible for investigating maritime accidents especially if they result in death but I think it depends on which flag the mothership sailed under.
I ‘studied’ Much Ado About Nothing in school (as the author wished for) but it was lost on me. Probably the issue is not normally the specific choice of play. But there are lots of things that are hard about Shakespeare in school, even ignoring the unfamiliar language. (A friend from another country said they studied some Shakespeare which had been translated into his language so didn’t sound so unfamiliar, but I can’t imagine something like that being done for english-speaking schools).

I feel like The Tempest is lower than I expected. I think it is often liked for not so easily fitting into one of the traditional genres. I feel like I see productions advertised reasonably frequently but I also did this at school so maybe I notice them more for that reason.

I think the OP has the same favourite play as fictional classics professor Jim Lloyd, which is interesting for some, I guess.
>I'm just not seeing how this new feature is obviously worse for users where we have to "take it little by little until it's too late". You're acting like Discord is removing features and doing clearly malicious things that we're all just tolerating.

Huh? In my first response to you I said, "I'd argue that the improvement for the users is just a byproduct in Discord's eyes". I've never said that this particular move is an inherently negative one for users who use Patreon. Two things can be true at once - a move primarily motivated by fiscal reasons can also be good for users. Because sure, as you and another user in this comment chain (their quote is the second quote below) have said...

>If they're not profitable now, and I doubt they are...

>There's no way Discord is profitable.

... I get that they need to make a profit. But as I've also said, I can't help but be pessimistic. This change may benefit users, but if they're still not profitable after this change, what next? Yeah, this might not "feel like they're beating users for more profit here as much as just eating Patreon's lunch", but that's the whole point.

Again, "pardon my pessimism"...
I for one would be okay with a distro like AlmaLinux migrating away from being an exact RHEL downstream clone to being an independent stable RPM based distribution. Stability and RPM ecosystem compatibility is what people are really looking for when they use a distribution like RHEL. So any reasonable distribution that provides those two will be sufficient to migrate away from Fedora/Redhat entirely.
There's nothing wrong with them wanting to make money. Granted, I think they're going about it in a hilariously stupid way. Their product is miles better than Slack. Regardless, I'm no longer willing to rely on them.
At that depth, the pressure is quite intense - around 6000 psi. That means 6000 pounds pr square inch - that's almost a Ford F150 truck pr square inch, everywhere. And now imagine how many square inches the surface area of a human is - especially your upper torso where your lungs are located.

The sub (hull) is made of a carbon fiber and titanium mix - and I'm not sure how that would react, if it buckles / collapses like regular metal, or if it simply shatters into millions of pieces like glass.

If the sub just collapsed / imploded into itself, well - that's that. The crew got crushed to death in an instant.

If the sub explode, then that would be a very violent reaction. Probably enough to kill them, purely from that - but let's say they don't die instantly from the crushing influx / wave of water:

Air / gasses in the body would compress significantly, if not allowed to exit the body. Your lungs would collapse in an instant, and your chest cavity would collapse on itself, until all air has escaped, and then replaced by water. Your ear eardrums would also rapture in an instant. With a severely collapsed upper torse, which would happen in an instant, I think your heart and major arteries would also become destroyed in an instant.

All that space would instantly get filled up with water.

I personally think that the violent process would kill them instantly - as in milliseconds...and then when all air has escaped the body, water would fill that space, until the pressure has reached an equilibrium.

EDIT: I personally don't think they suffered. The sub likely imploded in an instant, without little prior warning (noises) if the material behaves in the way I suspect it does. Just lights out, and that's that. Brain didn't even get time to react.
Same here, we still have 2 or 3 CentOS 8 to Rocky conversions to go from before we even started replacing Ubuntu!

I have to admit, while I share a lot of the values of Debian, I never really liked the product. Especially the apt package mangler, err, manager.
They've also carried some Debian in-house patches that really caused me some grief in the past.

Hm. Doesn’t look viable to me.

I’m not against language-based security, proof-carrying code, and all that, but I have less than perfect confidence that the Rust compiler currently is or will soon be sound enough to be secure against actively hostile code—AFAIU the language designers haven’t even written down their core calculus, let alone proven it sound. Putting the entirety of the Rust compiler (including, at least for now, millions of lines of C++ from LLVM) in the TCB of your system also feels less than inspiring.

There’s also the part where if you want to instrument the kernel with something other than Rust but still relatively powerful—I dunno, Ada—then you’re looking at putting the compiler for that in the TCB, too; you benefit from none of the verification work. Sound, tractable, and expressive type systems are usually fairly isolated in design space, so source-to-source translation of arbitrary programs is impossible most of the time.

Uploading System F (e.g. Dhall) or CoC to the kernel I could see—except for the tiny problem of memory management of course—but uploading Rust, even precompiled, I honestly can’t.

Yeah, I do a pretty good job already at avoiding garbage but every once in a while I'm caught by surprise. Still, for me at least it's not worth sending a list of every video I watch/search for to a third party and also cloudflare.

RHEL market share won't last forever, so they have decided to milk the Red Hat cow as fast as they can.

Long term, people will switch to containers and cloud apps (Kubernetes, AWS). In this new environment, operating systems are commoditized and RHEL's moat will slowly shrink. Instead, developers will focus on alpine, debian or similar.

Additionally as their needs grows and the free version doesn't meet their needs out of the box and the non-free version does they'll be more apt to buy into it given their previous experience with their products.
Is there any way to bring a private prosecution for perjury under US law? IANAL but I have the impression that it's something you could do in the UK, and the legal systems are similar. Obviously it wouldn't be worthwhile for a typical site operator or even most hosts, but you can imagine that someone with deep pockets who receives lots of dodgy notices could run something like Cloudflare's Project Jengo as a public service to go after a number of obvious abusers of the DMCA process. Knowing that Bad Things might happen of you lied on the takedown notice might focus people's minds.

That felt more like just a specification or attribute of what they were talking about, not an actual specific statement about it. A bit like if they'd said “The motor car was invented in 1645 by Gustave II Adolphe of Sweden”, and getting credit for “Yes, cars have motors”.
