For travelling I think something like a stainless steel food jar makes more sense since it's light, has an even more robust screw seal, and is easier to hold when eating. Not as cheap though.
They definitely used to have more uptime issues, so that’s an improvement. Not sure it really needed two orders of magnitude of employees, but still.
related, sure

relevant, I don't think so, but again, you're free to advocate for whatever for whomever, nobody is stopping you, as long as you aren't cynically using discrimination against 1 group to justify not dealing with the discrimination against another

otherwise, again, that sounds like a perfect solution fallacy: 'we can't fix everything at once so we should do nothing'
This is incredible given some of the listings. The fact one of the pictures is the house on literal fire, coupled with this context, goes to show that some people really don't belong anywhere in marketing or sales.
Nope. Starlink shuts down over china on the satellite side. Tesla has a huge presence there and they also threatened to shoot the satellites down (which they've done before) if starlink provided internet access there

Yeah the status says “partial service degradation” but the title lured me in with its encompassing “down”
There's plenty of places that sell glass dishes with glass lids. I hadn't even heard that plastic lids were thing until I read your post so had a look on Amazon and even on there it seemed to be ~50/50 mix of plastic and glass lids.

You don't need to go vintage either. The Pyrex dish I bought around 5 years ago, to replace another Pyrex dish that I accidentally dropped, came with a glass lid. And the set it was replacing, which was maybe around 10 to 15 years old, had glass lids too.

As for being microwave safe, I thought the whole point of Pyrex dishes were that they could be thrown in the oven, microwave, under a grill and pretty much everywhere? Or does this vintage set have visible signs of age, which makes you concerned?
You can't take down sites that are not within your borders or TLD, and if they don't cooperate.

Also, something can be illegal in a place, but not in some other place.

So the country where something is hosted can just apply their law.

For a long time, torrent websites have been hosted in Sweden, for exemple, where they were fully legal.
As long as they don't break laws in Sweden, they're fine.

In the same fashion, China can't take down the sites it finds illegal at home. The UK will never take down felons at "BBC.com". China can only block them through the GFC
AsciiDoc, org-mode, ReStructured Text are some of the other light markup contenders
Maybe I only speak for myself here, but if my entire job revolved around document markup I'd probably prefer a laptop anyways.

You could technically do "most jobs" on a cheap Android tablet with Chrome and a Bluetooth keyboard if you wanted. You could be a developer who uses Repl.it on your Xbox for all I know. Rationalizing poor software for less complicated jobs seems like a reductive slope to me though.
yeah. gnome become this mess exactly by the time most laptops OEM were jumping in on the netbook fad... and some of them started to ship laptops boasting linux in the marketing campaign, because, well, they needed something that ran well on low powered 2003 devices with little batteries. most used ubuntu, which was ubuntu the company's goal at the time btw.

then gnome was coopted and took a nosedive and OEM went back to using microsoft for everything. and ubuntu had to write their own shell to survive because gnome tought it would be smart to ship a broken 2.x version with no settings app
The vector permute was a highlight of the PowerPC vector extensions (AltiVec) in the late 1990s. It made a real difference for many media processing algorithms where the data is often packed and you need to pick apart the components for vector execution.

I’ve got the impression that AVX-512 is finally a good and comprehensive vector ISA from Intel, not just a tolerable one. Sadly it seems to be so comprehensive that the x86-64 vendors can’t afford the die area to ship it widely, or they treat it as an enterprise feature.
This is the same augment people use to defend theft, and claim "well it is all insured so who cares"...

There is a TON of intangible loss when property is taken from the owner, does not matter if it is the FAA per policy, or a thief. Just writing a check for the value of the property does not in reality make someone whole
Interesting example. This type of information is hard to find so the revenue model definitely makes sense.

For many other types of search, the data collection isn't the hard part, instead the difficulty is to make sense of the unstructured data that isn't very hard to collect. That is why I think paid search is difficult to motivate to an end customer.
Working for me also. Seems to be one of the rare cases where the “down for some people” in a status page actually does mean “some”. Recently when Microsoft 365 was offline for all email services they reported it as a “limited degradation”.
Standard medium? Paper stored well.

Custom special? Probably some form of the metal engraving encased in glass. GlassMasterDisc by Syylex was an attempt to do that for DVDs but I don’t think they’re made anymore.

Those actually were a LOT better than MDisc in practical tests
I was told that SOCKS proxies (which let you tunnel over SSH) are popular in China. It's super easy to setup and you don't need to install anything. You just need to SSH into any Linux EC2 instance outside of your network with ssh -D $port_number $username@$hostname and change a simple setting in your browser to proxy through that node using SOCKS5. It's nice because you still control the remote host (no need to trust some third party VPN) and the traffic is encrypted between your remote host and your local host (where it counts)... Anyone snooping would just think that you're SSHing into your EC2 instance for work purposes and not realize you're using it to browse the net.
I ended up on Reddit from a search result last night and it was slooooooooow. I’m not sure if that’s the new normal but was surprised at how bad the user experience had gotten.

The US does have that system. And of all the theories as to why Rome fell, I really don't think the recruitment of others into the legion is really much of a factor (except, I suppose, a second- or third-order effect of it allowing the various armies to be larger)
I wonder if someone could make a ChatGPT plugin that does the embedding search on MDN. Or if they already did.
Difficult to know, with the new Twitter, if this is intentional or they just screwed something up - although they've been driving their API to zero for ages, so probably intentional.
This is IMO a good example of a situation where tech or lack of it isn't the problem.

The MBA isn't a competitor in my mind. It loses SO MUCH by not supporting pen and touch while adding a bunch of unremovable bulk. The iPad is a better form factor and far more flexible it's just artificially handicapped.
Given HTTPS traffic is mostly permitted, could one obfuscate VPN traffic over http/3 (which I believe is UDP)?
Sounds like you've got a guardian angel! I wouldn't trust my Macbook to take a spill from waist height, even compared to a plastic HP/Panasonic machine. My ex went through so many broken iPhones that he considered Applecare an operational expense.

They're machines that hold up well in backpacks, but hearing "rugged" used to describe them is funny when a cup of coffee could decommission the whole thing in seconds.

> Are you seriously suggesting Russia is responsible for more death and destruction around the world than the US?

I am suggesting that Russias wars are far more brutal than America's.

There is no systematic rape and torture involved in America's wars.

It's pretty much a stable of Russias recent wars.

to quote the UN report.

"Investigating cases related to sexual and gender-based violence present specific challenges. The Commission has found that some Russian Federation soldiers committed such crimes. These acts amounted to different types of violations of rights, including sexual violence, torture, and cruel and inhuman treatment. There are examples of cases where relatives were forced to witness the crimes. In the cases we have investigated, the age of victims of sexual and gendered-based violence ranged from four to 82 years.".

IMHO no. I thought about this as I run a feed-reader and it would be cool to support ActivityPub as a feed protocol.

The main issue is that subscribing shows up on follower lists. Maybe for individual users this is fine but as I ran a service I didn't want to do this. I ended up with a number of reasons why ActivityPub push wouldn't work well.

1. I didn't want to appear to be advertising the service with a generic account subscribed to many feeds.

2. I didn't want a generic account to provide access to "followers only" toots to unintended users. To properly allow access approval I would need to put some subscriber info into the account. It would also be important to make sure that this can't be used as a form of spam (for example if I allowed them to put whatever name/message they wanted).

3. I didn't want to reveal who was subscribed to what.

4. I didn't want to have dozens of different accounts subscribed to popular feeds.

5. If the user also wants to comment on a post themselves they will need a separate account.

You can still poll a user's outbox like any other feed, but now you are back to an equivalent to Atom/RSS with no WebSub support. (I mean you could use WebSub, it works for any URL but no one does, and why would you when you already have ActivityPub for push?). So it seems that the anonymity of the older feed formats can be useful in some scenarios.

So in the end if I was just going to poll as any other feed format, and most services that support ActivityPub also have other feeds there was really no point to doing this. Feature requests welcome if there is a use case that I missed.
You’re not getting the updated proprietary blobs for the chips.

You’re just getting an updated OS.
But it's only really an subset of that demographic and i suspect the age spread reaches far lower then 18(reddit might pretend otherwise for regulatory purposes).

And i suspect a reason for the entire debacle is that a lot of the user base weren't seeing ads at all due to ad-blockers or the use of 3rd party apps.

It's a problem that also seems to plague twitch in that they simply aren't generating the revenue that's expected from the amount of traffic generated.
Do you have specific examples of what you mean by “concentrated on political correctness”? I absolutely agree that they dumbed down their content, but I think that’s more of a misguided push to appeal to a more general audience which just alienates their original core base. I remember seeing stuff like Doomsday Preppers being advertised several years ago which seemed antithetical to the magazines I remember my dad getting when I was a kid. It’s all quite sad…
They seem to have been able to fund development before. So what changed? Just the new corporate overlord that wants a return on their investment?
It's the same with IMDB, isn't it? Toxic subgroups and communities 1-star bombing movies that haven't even come out yet. The wikipage on review bombing doesn't even list Goodreads but has many examples from IMDB: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Review_bomb#Films,_television_...

So what could Goodreads do differently? It's true that the owners do as little as possible with the site, but that also means that overall the scoring system has very little impact. Would you trust it?
Cue all the weirdos starting with “Well frankly I’m a rock star and here’s what you normies don’t understand…”. Ya, sure you are.
Yes, iPadOS has deep, lingering deficiencies as an OS for professional use.

But their ads and keynotes are convincing, so I can't blame people falling for it! There's this weird juxtaposition of a terrible productivity machine combined with some mature, amazing and easy to use software in the demos, and Apple makes it look like iPads can be deeply embedded in your workflow and people have fun and laugh as that tiny device with its M1 CPU is a heavy lifter even for 4K and professional audio mixing.

And everything looks good at first sight. Until you reach the final 5% of usage where you either 1) need to interact with other software, 2) other storages like a Mac main storage, NAS, Samba, NFS drive, personal cloud etc, or 3) just somehow move out of (and back into) that sandboxed app for any reason. Then everything falls apart. Yes, even with that Files app.

There are tools and methods to exit the sandboxed app (share sheets omg all the share sheets) but it's just painted with bold letters all over the place that this is not what iPadOS was designed for from the ground up, but it's in fact still just a smartphone OS with a brand change and some special purpose features added on top that you can run on a device with a large display.

When Apple announced the iPadOS brand, I thought "Wow they finally get it" but I don't think they can figure this one out. They've had so many years now and we still have articles like these. I want them to figure it out because a slick system with optional keyboard and mouse sounds great to me.

I don't know, when I impulse bought my iPad Pro a few years ago to supplement my laptop that stopped charging, I did about 15 minutes of research and found a lot of people claiming that you can comfortably code on an iPad Pro. That turned out to be completely untrue for my use cases, but it would've taken a lot more than 5 minutes to figure that out.

That said, the iPad Pro is my biggest mistake I've never regretted. I've used mine every day since I bought it and I love it. It sucks for coding but it's great for handwritten notes, typed notes, drawing, music production, casual web browsing, mobile games, watching YouTube, controlling Spotify remotely, etc. It's a perfect companion to my regular laptop and a great travel device when I don't want to take my laptop with me. Even the lack of a full OS is an upside for me. iPadOS hinders multitasking enough that it ends up being a more focused device than my normal laptop.
Me and a few other moderators of some medium sized subs that we manage are leaving and a few others have been demoralized into doing nothing. We're having trouble finding new mods and the ones who are filling applications are either racists or power mods. The subs are operating in a restricted manner in part as a form of extended protest but in reality mostly because there's no longer enough manpower to run them in an effective manner. When the subs are finally forced to open fully the remaining mods will need to either make moderating their full time job or they will be crushed by a neverending queue of spam and hate and by people asking how to fix their mouse in a software forum.

Interacting with other mod teams we've learned that this mod scarcity is apparently universal.

None of this matters to reddit because in all honesty they would probably be happier and more profitable by converting the website into a read only feed of memes and kittens.
Sounds like I am missing the most obvious thing: they literally pay people to be homeless.

It sounds like once you are in that lifestyle the incentive is very much to stay there. So no wonder.

Of course the high cost of real housing doesn’t help. Makes it that much harder to get truly out of poverty. It also makes a life off the street look unattainable. It’s telling a mentally ill addict there is no hope for them to truly get off the street unless they can somehow produce an engineering degree or gain equivalent experience.

How does one notice microplastics? Do you notice microplastics from anything?
The main reason I like it is beacause after it is "seasoned", or after some regular use, it has a lot of the qualities of non-stick yet has none of the chemical coating.
We seem to be in agreement here. I apologise that these discussions have to become so heated; I understand this only comes from a place of compassion and frustration on your part. I appreciate your enthusiasm for change and obvious love for people who are - and have been in - my former position; there’s absolutely no anger on my side for the accidental friendly fire.

Thank you so much for speaking up. The necessary changes in this space are only going to happen with continued pressure to abdicate the status quo.

Do you see more of this collapse of written media houses? With willingness to pay for media at an all time low + cost of production of writing going to near zero, the demise of online media publications is near inevitable.

Will we see a resurgence of a new form of personalized research replacing this void for which folks will be willing to pay for? Is there a need for intermediaries in the space? Does direct publishing and direct to consumer media and publications have a place?

Yeah pdf of report says that blocking is instant as of 2021. Also completely agree with the need for an active connection to do work. A lot of the software/hacker devs I knew have left China all together in the last 3-4 years. Inability to look up stuff reliably (even on working VPN providers) was one of the reasons cited by a few.
To say that alcohol distills down to being able to socialize doesn’t fit. Socializing is not hard. Are you at a party? Approach people you don’t know the way you want to be approached. Wear a sincere smile, give some distance, give your name, ask them who they know at the party, respond with who you know. Most likely you will know the same people so chat about that. Say where you live then ask them where they live. Listen to their response. Ask them what they like about where they live. Ask what you should see if you visit their neighborhood. Ask what they think of the music. Listen to their response. Thank them for sharing their opinion. Be self deprecating. Let them talk and you add the odd comment. Alcohol is not required for that. All that’s required is to be sincerely interested in people.

Not necessarily. A page on a remote NUMA node is mappable, but with slower access. The system needs to smartly choose what pages to put there and when to migrate them back for performance and balancing. CXL memory nodes are mappable as well. Zswap is not, but needs to only be decompressed in RAM, in contrast to the disk pagefile where you need to block and read from the terribly slow disk. Protecting process workingset, choosing what pages need to be where at every given point in time without degrading performance while maximizing memory utilisation and reducing memory costs at a Google infra scale is a super super tough challenge.

It had no effect.

These write downs are likely a byproduct of the macro environment. The cheap money has run out and the stock market is taking a hit as interest rates have climbed. Fidelity's valuations reflect what they believe they can sell their share for, and now they believe they'd sell it for less.

If anything, my bet is Spez has been seeing that writing on the wall for a while (either because he read the tea leaves or because of signalling from Reddit's investors) and the API pricing changes are part of a desperate strategy to boost cashflow and hopefully goose their valuation in advance of a hoped-for IPO.
