The CIA not sharing information was pretty much the conclusion of the 9/11 report. The CIA cultivating informers (and still not knowing the plans for 9/11) is a long way from what "9/11 Truthers" claim.
Different people have different usage of features, where some features are worse or non-existent on Jellyfin.

You’d be correct to argue that just because something is arguably better in some ways does not mean that it’s alternative doesn’t work. But people are not good at expressing themselves.

I need to give Jellyfin a fair shake again. One thing I like about Plex is watching content off of my server, and then without logging out, switching to watching content on a friend’s server, on client devices like my smart TV.
The jellyfin app pales in comparison on Roku. It lacks a lot of polish in the player, IMO
I find that customer support from a lot of companies these days is remarkably degraded from a few years ago.

Some companies, I can't even "spend" money with because of this.

A real crisis.

The main problems in film and media today are over-consolidation and grossly inequitable compensation models. Blaming Apple is a rare, bizarre take.

Like - we have a huge writer strike right now, the second very large one in recent years. Meanwhile the CEOs and shareholders of every media company are paid multiples of what every writer gets combined. It's wildly perverse. And not Apple's fault, or even Amazon's.
I cannot find the source but I recall reading that telematics insurance causes more incidents as it makes drivers afraid of braking hard, knowing that any maneuver by you to avoid a deranged driver is counted against you.

Sad to see a Brazilian company who offered so many jobs being forked out.
They have unbelievable talent in Brazil.

I've fought my manager to hire a good one from Brazil.

They have an unbelievable wealth of amazing education, add to that a strong reason to want to be successful.

I've worked and hired a lot of people over the years, of all of them; Brazilians were the best, they know what they're doing, in our office at the time that let everyone to relax and enjoy. If you don't know what you're doing. You're fired. End of. Used to love that office.

We got work done while having fun. Count the UN, more or less was there.

Everything was delivered quick and mostly always above that spec, because they 'understood' it better.

10 / 10

End of the day : They have an insane education system, it's good but maybe too aggressive. (look to the law exam).
They know how to study.

Lookup the law exam. It's rough.

Edit:

If you're poor in Brazil, options are limited. Coding is an EXIT point, that can lead to better.

We lost, but it wasn't a military loss, it was a catastrophic failure of diplomacy.

> Vancouver is a WONDERFUL city by 99% of the world standard, that's why so many people CHOOSE to live here. Just like Canada is an amazing country.

Well.. I've been in Vancouver for 10 years now also.

The city has gotten much worse.

I'm relatively privileged in that I'm able to pay bills right now, but many people aren't. I have so many friends working for less than $25/hr who are one renoviction away from homelessness (they can't afford the market rate).

And I have recently-homeless friends who have decided to live in their car rather than compete for rent.

Several friends on PRs have decided to go back to their home countries (India, Australia). Lots of young people who don't have parents to fall back on have left the city. Other friends have retreated to the interior or the island (though the affordability of everywhere in BC is abysmal right now)

I'm not saying there aren't more people coming than going (Canada's aggressive immigration goals have ensured that), just that most people who get here find it's a struggle.

> Again, go touch grass and plug out of reddit, that shit isn't good for your mental health.

I'm basing this on the experience of people I know outside of the internet, but obviously that's not something I can link to in Hacker News.

Most people I know IRL don't consider Vancouver a desirable place to live now. Perhaps more desirable for weather than other Canadian cities, but not on par with the major cities of other first-world countries (again, I have friends from other countries who have said this is why they were going back).
I don't know go, but in C# I'd probably do something like the code below. The object really only needs to carry the uuid/guid, let the language type system worry about the difference between a user and post id. We just need a generic mechanism to ensure that UserId object can only be constructed from a valid type id string with type = user. For production use you'd obviously need more methods to construct it from a database tuple (mentioned elsewhere in the comments), etc.

interface ITypeIdPrefix
{
static abstract string Prefix { get; }
}

abstract class TypeId<T>
where T : TypeId<T>, ITypeIdPrefix, new()
{
public Guid Id { get; private init; }

public override string ToString() => $"{T.Prefix}_{Id.ToBase32String()}";
// Override GetHashcode(), Equals(), etc.

public static bool TryParse(string s, out T? result)
{
if (!s.StartsWith(T.Prefix) || !TrySplitStringAndParseBase32ToGuid(s, out var id))
{
result = default;
return false;
}

result = new T { Id = id };
return true;
}
}

class UserId : TypeId<UserId>, ITypeIdPrefix
{
public static string Prefix => "user";
}

class PostId : TypeId<PostId>, ITypeIdPrefix
{
public static string Prefix => "post";
}
> ZFS I’m uncertain about data integrity in systems not using ECC memory

It's still better than ext4 (or most other options). If you're running without ECC and your RAM corrupts data it might not get caught by ZFS, but failures anywhere else in the hardware will get caught; filesystems without data checksums won't catch corruption anywhere including RAM.

What's the market share of those though? I've networked with a lot of devops/sysadmins and I can't to my recollection ever remember somebody using Devuan or Artix, and it's rare indeed to hear somebody using Gentoo.

I'm not dismissing them because they aren't popular, but I do think it's not very reasonable to call the market fragmented when the nons are such a small percentage of overall use.
Unix used to be about simplicity, and the composition of simple tools to achieve very productive outcomes. The shell was a part of that: learn it once, and you could do more-or-less anything with a Unix system. Including manage system startup and shutdown.

Linux has never really had that culture of finding the most concise but most general solution to a given problem. The results of that are everywhere, but systemd is a prime example.

To be fair, the world is not as simple as it was when Unix was designed either, and that's only partially because the Unix philosophy hasn't been widely adopted.
The problem is that systemd tries to turn into something that does everything under the sun. It is not ideal and kind of far from the unix philosophy.
Criterion didn’t do so well.
I've used Linux for a couple of decades or so. SysV initscripts have been a pain for many of those years. Do you do RH/Mandrake/Mandriva flavoured or the SuSE ones and other oddities. I decided to wander over to Gentoo for my personal stuff for a decade or so. Now the bloody initscripts need to conform to OpenRC. At least Mr Marples gave me some help with this.

A systemd unit is a simple thing to rustle up. I have recently been informed that an OpenRC script is too these days and I'll fiddle up a VM and have another bash with Gentoo. My job as Managing Director of my company is to maintain an open mind!

I don't think that not shipping a systemd unit will crap out any piece of software. I've seen quite a few packages of code, source and that and an initscript in ./contrib probably works on Debian and farts loudly on SuSE or vv. Who cares? systemd can run it quite easily and with minimal pissing around. With logging and all the other useful stuff.
The fundamental problem here isn't even AI. Its just the new lowest bidder for barely coherent SEO.

I still have my popcorn ready for when the advertising bubble pops. There is no way web ads are worth what companies are paying for them now.
Apple has done a pretty good job of this but its not a money making strategy. They have to hand out AppleTV 3 and 6 month trials like they've got too many, and are pouring billions into it with no sight of it ever being profitable, basically the exact same situation as Disney+ is in.

I'd be interested in seeing the numbers, and how they slice it up (whether they're completely treating federal roads separately or using it for the total, etc), as at $0.364 per gallon in Utah, it seems like it results in a large amount to put towards funding something, so it would be interesting to track where it's going.

> I have used init scripts, I have written init scripts. I hated it. Every program needed it's own little way of doing things and writing an init script for a daemon was a hassle of bash scripting and copy pasting.

We had, no joking, thousands lines of init scripts that were just ripped out of distro (mostly CentOS/RHEL... Debian had some pre-made wrappers that mostly did the right thing) and fixed by us because people saying "it's so easy" to write init script ARE LYING.

And some apps, like Pacemaker (app for making other things HA), are really sensitive on scripts not being done fully correctly

Some tidbits:

* script reports app is stopped right after you run start... because it left creating PID to application, app took some time to boot (Java), and the script didn't wait for PID creation. So running "start, then run status to check whether it worked" returned that app did not work.

* script reports app is running after reboot. The app is not running. Script read off PID file off /var/run (that at the time wasn't in tmpfs like now /run is), saw PID exists and didn't try to start it at all. The pid was of a different application. That was MySQL, not some random obscure app...

* "stop" action doesn't actually return when app is stopped, it just sends signal. sysv goes ahead and shuts down system before app manages to write all of the data. Or in case of pacemaker it does weird stuff because "status returning running after sending stop" should not happen.

* other various ways "status" was broken randomly

“One word: Dentistry” — P. J. O'Rourke (I think)
What is missing from the article is the ascent weights were found in a different location as the wreckage, which led to the hypothesis that the passengers knew the submersible’s hull was failing and had dropped the weights to ascent.

Also, Cameron is the first person to do a solo descent to the Mariana Trench. Based on the interview, he was involved in the engineering and design of that Deepsea Challenger submersible and they concluded that the titanium+carbon-fiber hull design (which Oceangate used) is unsuitable. So, he’s not just “another celebrity”; his testimony carries some weight.

Also, advertising on reputable media sites had become much too cheap. (Had it been in the ballpark of what they made with print advertising and own advertising departments before, they should be thriving.) In general, advertising is much too ubiquitous and cheap on the web in order to sustain anything.

This has been extremely common in the UK for about 10 years - especially for young drivers.

I warned my nephew off it but sure enough, he took the £200 (£1400 to £1200) discount on insurance. His insurance was cancelled because they say he did over 35mph in a 30 zone, so now his insurance premiums are £2000+ because he has to declare he has a history of having an insurance policy cancelled.
My non-plugin hybrid is charged the EV registration fee in WA. They say it's to support adding more EV chargers, but I can't even use them. It's not terrible, but an additional $75/yr is stupid IMHO...this is more expensive that my gas guzzling truck (which is higher than a car because of it's weight).

https://www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news/transportation/was...
It would be $23 if you have an EZ pass, $34.50 if you don't. When you factor in the cost of the bridge or tunnel toll ($6.55 with an EZ pass or $10.17 without), then commuters are looking at a daily charge of $29.55 or $44.67 (before parking, which is extremely expensive) to drive into Manhattan. Considering how awful the subway and LIRR are already (especially since the botched opening of the new "Grand Central" that resulted in the diversion of numerous trains), this will be an unmitigated disaster. Certainly this will discourage many people from voluntarily visiting Manhattan, but the people who are truly screwed are the people who work there and have no other option (if you have to carry equipment or tools mass transit is not an option).
We actually have a blog post coming on specifically this from AWS, at the time it was the 8th largest public A100 cluster and we covered it live again while we were preseed well before the funding round

https://twitter.com/emostaque/status/1553120829336129537?s=4...

It was super interesting as an experience.

At the very least anyone who has used AWS for ML can tell you that getting a 40 A100 quota let alone 4,000 is a feat in itself ^_^
Life isn't about what you take, it's about what you give.

If everyone takes without giving, there is nothing left to take. If everyone gives without taking, there is enough to take when you need it.

This is fundamental to how societies operate. This was core christian ethos before it was corrupted by the GOP. This is why the west has higher trust societies, and much of the rest of the world does not.

Reciprocity is an extremely important consideration. Kantian ethics is the foundation of the west. If you take your actions and thoughts and project them onto everyone else, the websites you enjoy wouldn't exist.

If you understand that, you just don't want to feel uncomfortable and are in denial. If you do not understand that you are choosing ignorance.

You don't have to agree, but we are both effectively parasites.

What's worse is the conflict of interest.

On the topic of news papers, if content is not paid for it is that the content itself that becomes an engine of money making. Content becomes ads. If nobody pays for high quality investigative journalism you don't get high quality investigative journalism.

If you don't donate to your politicians, someone else will.

If you don't pay for your news papers, someone else will.

If you don't pay for your social media, someone else will.

You can argue these companies are taking more than they give, and they are, but your position of personal responsibility is worth considering. The sum of everyone's thoughts on their personal responsibility creates culture, and this "next quarters profits" culture that we live in is an extension of the very ideas you have expressed.

When you choose to act in a self interested way, you justify someone else acting in a self interested way. So you justify the selfish acts against you through your actions.

If you think it's ok to not experience ads, you justify people using ads to collect and sell your data.

Using an adblocker is what you can do, just like selling your data is what the company can do. It's "might makes right" in form, which is the opposite of reciprocity. Might makes right is great for the winner, but I don't think we are winning.
Then all the more reason to use those sources, and a cult's clickbait farm.

Well, wait: sysv scripts can express dependenices but they don't have to. The admin is totally free to just set the start and stop orders in the runlevels themselves (that's how the BSD world does it). Setting up a dependency system means you're just making a worse systemd and I've never really gotten the appeal of it.

Maybe you got a different A/B version of the page, but I went there and there weren't any of those. There's a Disney+ call to action but it shows naturalistic content. I cycled through the promoted shows gallery and it didn't bring up any Star wars or Toy story items.
The token system used instead of passwords now was horribly explained. I had to look at several online resources to figure out how to actually use it.

I've noticed that the system seems to repeatedly throttle me where it never did before. Logging in often results in being given an error until I try it enough times.

Sometimes attempting to pull recent changes from a repo will fail, and tell me that I pulled the recent changes even though I am stuck on an old commit. I tried several things to fix this and the only thing that seems to work is doing a hard reset on the latest commit id. I never noticed github doing this before.
Ultimately the complexity of managing all these DRAM corner cases needs to be handled inside the DRAM itself as there's just no way for DRAM controllers to be revised to cope with every new and exciting DRAM hardware bug. Sadly, the DRAM vendors continue to get away with publishing specs for their hardware that the hardware doesn't meet. Once upon a time that would result in a recall.
Debian has merged /usr too. At least my current Debian 12 install does, and I'm pretty sure it had it before I upgraded it from Debian 11. I believe Debian's problem is (was?) only with migrating existing pre-merge installs.

Yeah, I knew there'd be someone on here still terrified immigrants are trying to replace them. IDK what TF that even means, but I can promise you no one thinks that if they just remove all of the existing Canadians that they're somehow, ship of Theseus-style, going to have a brand new Canada.

And while they may not explicitly be trying to help you, their goals are such that "helping Canada helps themselves." Way more than you give them credit for. But that's okay, please join the fear-mongering of "the great replacement."
Nor even was sysvinit always set up consistently, e.g. some distros just had init.d and rc.d, some had all the runlevels, and what those runlevels meant were different distro to distro

Interesting. I wonder what the long term effects of this are.

Won't the results of classic intrinsic vs extrinsic motivation studies apply?

I'd imagine if reading (and learning in general) is extrinsically driven,
one might move the needle say from 0->5. Once the driver is removed, I'm
having a hard time seeing it succeed.

I do not have studies or large scale data to back it, but my boys (12, 17) have
exhibited the drop-off in interest once the extrinsic motivation and/or peer group vanishes.

Perhaps it's not in your business interest to do so, but it'd be very useful to understand the longer term implications of a program like this.

I do not mean to discourage you - just curious - and wishing I could take back my tiger parenting altogether.

OTOH "systemctl start httpd.service" exits with 0 even if apache doesn't start because for some reason "a misconfigured apache didn't start" is considered correct behavior. I don't know that any init has actually solved that problem.

WA state is also ridiculous about this: I can understand a road usage tax to replace the gas tax we're not paying, but they also charge an additional fee on top of that for a state fund to add more EV charging stations, even though logically it should be ICE drivers who are paying this to help incentivize the transition! People who already bought EVs clearly aren't concerned with the number of charging stations which exist now.
