If you think about it in terms of many gigabit/s but also in terms of causing "intermittent" application issues I would say it isn't something that can be considered negligible. .04% sure but 4% is noticable imho. When I was working in networking, I've had a couple of problems I resolved in the lines of "we have 10% packet loss but only to this specific site" which took non-negligible man-hours to resolve. It is significant enough for some sensitive customers (especially gaming servers and such) to require support on it.
When I was less wise, I remember suggesting exercise to someone suffering from depression.

Didn't go so well.

You reach an unfortunate point when depressed that makes it difficult to listen to actually useful advice. It's an unfortunate state of mind to say the least.
I have no idea if he's a professional engineer. You suggested that being a full-time Youtuber makes him a professional engineer.
Yeah, I'm generally not an early adopter of technology -- I would probably let a few million people try it out before I put my own body in it. The Prestige is excellent. Christopher Nolan has a talent for taking a philosophical concept and turning it into a great action/thriller movie.

Weird how the repairs were going to be done 4 days after the incident. So the beeping sound essentially had no purpose?

This is fundamentally a design problem: annoying sounds should be used for emergency situations involving immediate rectification, not “fix this sometime in the next week.”

Which is why the whole thing needs to be nipped in the bud.

For one thing .meta would already be a dotfile so .dotfile/.env would be redundant. But that's called dotenv! What's it going to be named now? Or maybe that wouldn't be included. But it's on the list in the tweet linked to in the article.
Hollywood has been using algorithms to evaluate new movie scripts for decades. Consumer entertainment was never really an outlet mainly for creative expression; creative expression was just instrumental for making the business viable within certain market conditions. Now that indignation has been inculcated in culture by leftist social engineers, the machinations of capitalism are adapting the products
accordingly. But the fundamental character of consumerism remains unchanged: endless variations, on themes that are favourable to incumbent financial interests, and which put the creative, revolutionary spirit into a slumber; elevator music. And LLMs are uniquely suitable, indeed.
And more willing to use violence.

To be fair, many right of center groups presume liberals can’t be patriots and that any display of the American flag is a tacit endorsement of far right ideals (which is of course nonsense).

That the US flag is routinely desecrated by reactionary conservatives up to and including police departments in the form of thin blue line, punisher flags, Molon labe lapels etc to explicitly advertise anti-American ideals seems at least as likely to be the cause of growing anti-flag feelings as any liberal agenda.
You ever look at a GitHub project and complain about how someone else used the same variable name as you, but had the gall to assign a different value to it? What you’re doing is the scientific literature equivalent.

The term “man” is understood by a very broad swath of society, and overwhelmingly the educated class who writes for and reads these journals, to refer to the gender construct, not the biological fact. Clarity is always better.
End-to-end encryption doesn't secure anything if you don't control the keys. I'd believe they encrypt the data at rest, but I wouldn't ever dupe myself into believing that makes it safe. So... we're back around to square one. Apple will steamroll over your privacy (along with 10s of thousands of other freedom-loving Americans) without a second thought.

It could be worse, though. If you're a Chinese iCloud user, your data just gets uploaded right into state-owned servers: https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT208351

That's definitely not true for all cancellation reasons in the US.

After a cancellation due to bad weather, I was once given the option of a pretty ridiculous connection (5 hours cross-continent in the wrong direction before proceeding towards my destination) and getting a hotel at my own expense (the airline did give me a 10% off voucher though!) and flying on the next day.

Basically, it's generally not useful to say "if you meet some condition, then you can have this software under the GPL", because any one person who meets the condition can basically end up making it GPL for everyone.

This should not be an issue.

The condition they provided was effectively "if you want to use GPLv3 you can use GPLv3". That's perfectly acceptable for GPL. What they are doing on top of this is saying "if you can't/don't want to use GPLv3 but meet some other conditions, we will dual license it under one of these other licenses for you".
Spoken like someone who lives in a country with a pragmatic healthcare system!

I jest, but I think you are right on the money that this talk of "you need therapy" is very American. The deep irony of someone telling someone else "you need therapy" is that it is spoken with the implication that it should be considered a punishment for a moral failing, rather than resource to live a one's existing life but better. It all feels very Puritan.
Time Machine created an APFS sparse bundle on the SMB share. How is an APFS sparse bundle on an APFS volume better than an APFS sparse bundle on another volume?
Exactly my thinking too. They could have their API like it was in the beginning where you could post things and read things and we could then create some translation layer for those people who really want to read their grandmas posts in their Mastodon app.
It’s probably less the strength and more the fact that before contraception women would be pregnant a substantial amount of the time. Hard to be engaged in the world when you’re having to do a bunch of pre-scientific rituals to try and ensure a safe and healthy birth a lot of the time.

But that doesn’t really mean they weren’t involved in decision making, it just means they aren’t involved in the sorts of places where people will write any of it down for posterity.
Why does it need to be checked on a per-request level?

I'd expect you to be able to give short-lived capability tokens to clients that each machine can verify down the stack without making new rpcs. This would avoid the fan-out of all the internal services.

If regulators knew what was best, I honestly think they would stop acting as though that can define what is best for hundreds of millions of people with a shortlist of laws.

Life is complicated. Our country is diverse in population, culture, environment, etc. What's good for some of not good for all.

The fact that there are multiple competing ideas of how to best design a car for safety is case in point. Larger frames and door reinforcement makes sense for intrusion protection, but the oposite makes sense to favor visibility. Which approach is considered so good as to make a legal requirement, and what options aren't included in that choice?

I'd be happy to see our government heavily fund unbiased research and public education. In this example, learn what different car designs do for safety and tell the public. Allows us to make our own decisions, empowered with a better understanding of what our options are.
Even better would be to have tools share configuration files. Plain make files don't have this problem. Build scripts also don't have this sort of problem. Ofc once you start with autotools, things go pretty bad. Build scripts usually suck once a project is larger than a toy. Golang has an interesting approach.
> We shouldn't completly alleviate those absent father from any responsibilities for their choice, but we should also look at the cause and condition making those choices so prevalent.

I'm much more involved in my children's day-to-day lives than my father was in mine.

But I'm a software engineer who has worked from home full-time for the last 7+ years. Yes I lock my office door for several hours a day, but I'll pop out every now and again and say hello, it is easy for me to do school drop-offs/pick-ups sometimes, or take them to appointments. My commute is zero, so as soon as I'm done for the day, I'm there for them.

My father spent most of his career as a manager/executive in the pharmaceutical manufacturing industry. You can't manage a manufacturing line without physically being there to respond when things go wrong. Before that, he also worked as a manager of analytical chemistry laboratories, and you can't really do that remotely either. Even when he got senior enough that he didn't physically have to be there all the time, he told me that if all the people under him had to be there physically, from a workplace politics viewpoint, he had too as well. At one manufacturing plant he was managing a few years ago, the IT staff were demanding to work from home, but he was pushing back against their demand, because he was worried about how it would look to the manufacturing staff for whom that couldn't be an option.
Against my better judgment, I'll comment in this thread.

I think the mistake in the post above is saying that physical strength has not been an issue for a millennia.

The strong have been using the threat of physical violence to take power right up to and including today. In the home, at work, and in society at large.
Yep, I've hardcoded a "system" message that tells ChatGPT to answer in the present tense as if it's 1992, and to make no reference to the current year. It does still slip up and mention the year as mitchdoogle experienced, but it's pretty good most of the time - even with complex questions like asking how many countries there are in NATO.
I like how he avoided paying $150 for a development kit by whipping out Altium Designer, which I believe costs $4000/year. That must be a paid promotion.
yeah, it's pretty petty to destroy this low wage workers life because they couldn't afford to just secure the area completely and make sure the only way to kill it is if you have a key to the room.

A worker can't be expected to read a sign, now if they had thoroughly trained him maybe, but it doesn't sound like that's the case. It's not outside the realm of possibility that some cleaning staff might not be very literate or maybe English isn't their first language, etc...
If you plot human height by sex, it's roughly a normal distribution for each sex, and the women are a few inches shorter than the men.

Women are, indeed, physically different from men. They are shorter. What's often forgotten is how much the two populations overlap. In other words, a man who is the height of an average woman is unremarkable. A woman who is the height of an average man is also unremarkable. If there's any innate psych or cognitive differences -- an idea I'm not fully opposed to -- it's likely a distribution like that. But probably even more overlap. Not really something that would allow you to predict something about the person. No more than knowing someone is 5'8" would allow you to guess their sex with confidence.
I agree with much of this, but not the takeaway. After my divorce, I decided that I’d rather be single than have to spend any more timing hiding myself. So I’m pretty open and vulnerable with women. If they can’t handle it, I’m not gonna spend my life hiding real shit, that’s insane. And the woman I’ve been seeing for almost two years doesn’t seem phased by it, so they’re out there.

Here’s a random deer population anecdote. When I was a kid we never ever saw deer near our house. But when we went out to the countryside we would see them and it felt like a fun treat. It felt like seeing an unusual wild animal.
Now the deer population in the suburb where I live has exploded and we see deer multiple times per week in our backyard. It’s an odd contrast.

That’s not what’s being said here at all. As has been said in multiple comments pregnancy and everything associated with it physically and biologically is the most likely factor. It’s not bigoted to point out that women are biologically different in ways that make them unlikely to be rulers.
For most of these repo-specific config, if you put it in a subdirectory then some tooling won't work properly. If your dockerfile is in ops/, the you have to tell people how to run docker build. If your .eslintrc is in ops/, then those rules will only apply to files in subdirectories of ops/...
Among other possible criticisms, they hold too much power. So much of the web is behind their walls, if let's say you couldn't access them or decided you didn't want to communicate with CF, huge portions of the web would become off limits.
>This 'ActivityPub' interoperability also happened with Gab, which became the largest Mastodon instance at one point and then almost all instances de-federated with it.

Ever since a few major macos versions ago, I don't think that is possible anymore.
By that logic, why put any files in directories? Let's keep the entire project at the root level.

The truth is, it's not that the current project roots are a mess. It's that there's a complete and holistic category of file that is being kept in the root of projects, and putting them in a directory dedicated to that category is utterly sensible. Every other category is kept in a dedicated namespace in the file structure, why should config files be the exception?
I should have been clearer, sex is generally binary there are obviously rare exceptions like chromosomal abnormalities.

Who's making these arguments? A quick Google scholar was not fruitful, do you have any sources or is this a fringe minority?

> such as how your sex is listed on ID

This presupposes that sex be listed on ID rather than gender. I don't follow this in the news so I'm not sure what the arguments are but at face value using the IOM definition from 2001 ("how that person is responded to by social institutions on the basis of the individual’s gender presentation.") gender seems like the more appropriate choice for identification.

Yes, very much worth it. As someone who divorced after two decades, living your life behind a mask isn’t worth it for any romantic relationship. Which will lack true intimacy, since you will not be known for who you are. You will never feel chosen just for being you, because she won’t know who that is.

I get open and vulnerable and emotional with my partner, and I have since the beginning. Hasn’t hurt things yet. Maybe that’s still coming, but again, I’d rather be single.
https://github.com/torvalds/linux seems fine w/ the modules & config files sharing the top level folder. Sorting directories to the top helps.
Cisco is reaching for relevance. While their hardware has been respectable, their software has been horrendous. Ciscoworks? Mars? It hasn't gotten better. Get DNA! It does everything! Well, except it doesn't. Cisco is Microsoft. On life-support, depending on those that don't know better options exist. I would never have picked Nvidia as being a company to check out for networking, but here we are.
We agree that it is flawed and it is obviously contrived, because the difficult decisions happen at scale and in edge cases. This is content moderation on easy mode; difficult stuff happens at scale and in the greyest of areas and have to be applied consistently.

You'd usually want 3 phases for a brushless DC motor, right? Though I'm sure theres a cheap Chinese 3/4 channel DAC on LCSC since the output quality won't matter.

I haven't considered using a DAC with a motor before, but that strikes me as extremely inefficient, which is one of the design considerations. You're basically going from a simple class D amp to a class A one. The motor has plenty of inductance so you may as well PWM it for efficiency.

You could custom-build a special version of MacOS that runs entirely in userspace, but unfortunately it would never be as secure as a properly-configured Linux system. The default on MacOS is a venerable effort, and a powerful standard to enforce across an entire line of devices. Apple does not give the user enough control to protect them against Apple themselves, though.

There are certainly security and convenience scenarios where MacOS is hard to beat, but no trust-based system can ever be the final say in security.

Yeah, I'm going call bullshit on this. Almost every society is historically patriarchal because for thousands of years, human attributes tied to testosterone (strength, endurance, athleticism, aggression) were extremely valuable. The world is changing, and we need to change with it by developing a new, healthy society, not retreating into traditional structures and patterns that no longer serve us as a species.
I never liked the term cancel culture, but IMO it doesn’t apply here. Canceling is about life ruination and public humiliation, not simply cutting ties.
> What would you have liked to see them do differently or what actions would you have liked to see rather than an apology? (If anything)

It's been 60 years, and now the organization makes an apology when it's fashionable? You can't just commit human atrocities and then say "Oh, sorry about all the atrocities."

Apologies are not at all appropriate when it comes to human atrocities.

Seriously, think about it: if someone committed murder and then apologized to the family for taking their loved one away from this world forever... do you think the family would really want that apology? Or would it be just a slap in the face?
As a child of fundamental baptists, all of the circles I grew up in saw their bodies as temporary shells.

They also saw their bodies as created by god, and thoughts/emotions as having metaphysical sources and consequences. Setting aside any specific doctrinal positions, the broader claims and beliefs of the church push one to think of themselves in some rather odd ways.

If certain thoughts and feelings are temptations from the devil, actually believing this explanation short circuits the systemic explanations for those thoughts/feelings, and leaves one to conclude that the body must not have anything to do with it.

I believe the Christian worldview involving a creator god more broadly points people in this direction not necessarily because of specific claims, but as a downstream effect of the broader philosophy.
They also should not be taken to be reliable when applied to trans women for the same reasons - they're outside of the normal hormonal envelope of a man and therefore an edge case.
