Is gambling a grievance? There are lots of things the government rightly doesn’t let us do, or, strongly discourages us from doing, because they are bad for us. Of course, this is the same government that supports gambling in the form of the lottery, so clearly they don’t have people’s best interests in mind.

1. you can still buy the blu-ray for any given recent movie. For non-movies, the alternative was cable, which you did not own. And hoping that they'd release a collection on DVD/BD

2. Despite all the price hikes, streaming is still more bang for your buck unless you only watch 1-2 movies a month. And still much more convinent. We;re not at this point in time in video, so i'm not worried about games in the next 20 years hitting that.
You probably already do. If you are American, you probably paid much more taxes to pursue a worthless invasion into Iraq and Afghanistan. If you live in a capitalist country, you are probably paying taxes to pursue worthless bailouts of corporations, or whatever infrastructure these corporations want the state to pay for them.

It is also a bit unfortunate that you view education that doesn’t lead directly to a career to be “worthless”. You learn a lot of skills when you get university education, including but not limited to knowledge about the field at hand. If you get education in one field and then go into industry in another area, you will take those skills with you, and the industry at whole will benefit from having a wider skillset among its workers.
You two are correct, fixed, thanks!
The immediacy of war is never going to be matched by a slowly evolving disaster such as climate change and that is exactly why we're not doing anything that will move the needle. It is just over the horizon, very comfortable and plenty of people strongly believe that since they are not personally going to be affected that it doesn't concern them.

But if a country is invaded that is something that you can actually do something about, on the spot and see the result.

Moscow to Perth, Western Australia (overflying the US Naval Communication Station) is 12,000 km.

The Chinese DF-5 has that range, the Russian RS-28 Sarmat has a range of 18,000 km.

The assumption in the mid 1980s was that any 'first strike' against the US by Russia would first target global radar and submarine commnications with other hard targets stacked up immediately behind .. in order to sow confusion and minimise chances of counter strike orders.

People and companies in the US have contributed a whole lot of hours to emulator development, such that it's plausible emulation would not be nearly as good as it is if such development were illegal in the US. Moreover, less effort may have been put into emulator development or emulation-based-product development by foreign companies, if they were legally unable to sell their products in the US, which is a large and rich market. Further, US copyright policy has a tendency to influence international copyright regimes, over the longer term.

Exactly. The reality is that San Francisco has lost a lot of people over the last decade, even though our population has grown. We've displaced people through a crisis of (lack of) affordability as wealthier folks have flocked to the city. If we view SF's success purely through population growth, that looks like success, but in practice, it has been a truly devastating decade for so many who loved this city. The demand to live in the city may be just as high today, but the demographics may look less rich. As housing prices slowly come back down to something vaguely closer to earth, some of those people come back -- and new residents eager to take advantage of the quality of life SF offers at a lower price point move in. It's a cycle that's a microcosm of American boom/bust mentality, but SF always comes through with being a beautiful/unique/storied/creative/walkable/dense city.
I'd really like to understand your perspective!

My current/primitive understanding:

* CDDL is 'BSD-like'- allowing the right for CDDL code to co-exist in perhaps proprietary/closed source codebase, so long as the CDDL parts remain CDDL. It does not make demands for non-CDDL parts, allowing dual-license scenarios?

* GPL demands all code in the same codebase are subject to GPL. e.g. This excludes a scenario where some parts are open source, and others proprietary/closed.

* All contributions to the Linux kernel are subject to GPL

* Say OpenZFS is merged into Linux, CDDL demands that OpenZFS parts remain CDDL?

Now the resulting codebase has more restrictions than the spirit of the CDDL allows for. Is this not a conflict?

If you could attempt to ELI5 how I'm potentially getting part of this wrong, or point me to some article, I'd appreciate it! I honestly find this stuff pretty confusing.
When the LLM wave first burst into public consciousness, I hoped that people would find a way to repurpose all the crypto-mining hardware for this -- alas, a different set of problems.
It would be interesting to me to see an emulator that specifically required APUs to run to not have to design around the unshared memory pool of a discrete GPU.

According to their website: "Prohibition effectively shut Anchor down in 1920. There may have been a few “activities” during Prohibition and the era of bootlegging, but there is no record of Anchor Brewery doing anything—legal or illegal—during this time. After Prohibition ended in April 1933, owner Joe Kraus began brewing Anchor Steam Beer after a thirteen year hiatus. As luck would have it, the Brewery went up in smoke the following February. He re-opened Anchor in an old brick building with a new partner, Joe Allen, just a few blocks from where the historic Brewery is today."

Yeah, PS5 games expect to have up to 16GB of VRAM available, and thanks to GPU vendors being stingy with VRAM to upsell to get that you’d need to buy expensive high end cards.

But that doesn’t do anything to help with the PS5’s shared memory architecture, where because VRAM and RAM are one in the same, textures that need to be in memory aren’t duplicated between RAM and VRAM like on bog standard PCs, which has performance implications.

Windows has support for streaming assets directly from SSDs like the PS5 does now (at least if you have a fast enough NVMe SSD installed, SATA SSDs or older NVMe drives won’t cut it), but PCs still lack the hardware texture decompression of the PS5 which once again impacts performance.

The mass market computers closest in architecture to PS5s are actually M-series Macs, with how they also have a large pool of memory serving as both RAM and VRAM. Once the integrated GPUs on M-series SoCs achieves parity with the PS5’s onboard Radeon, they might actually be the most straightforward to emulate a PS5 on despite needing x86-to-ARM translation.
I suspect that after "debugging" many types of real-world problems, you will find the root cause is poor relationships. Or more specifically, you are not really part of some group or community that you are trying to influence.

I definitely am not good at being part of groups but my suspicion is that if you put time into trying to work on the exact things they are working on, then you may understand where they hang out and what their day to day problems are.
>"Inflation is down" is ridiculous spin. No, the rate of increase of inflation is down.

I don't believe for a second you're actually confused. You know very well that "inflation is down" means the inflation rate is down. If inflation were actually down that would be called "deflation" and no one would be celebrating (except the goldbugs).

What news we have is objectively both a change and an improvement. Pretending otherwise is ridiculous. The inflation rate is way down by all metrics.

And it was never all that bad to start with. It never even hit 10%. Inflation was a problem but one modern governments run by adults are demonstrably capable of dealing with. The response didn't even cause a recession!

We talked on IRC. :-)

I'm planning to do that, but it'll have to be after my vacation; don't want to be running bcachefs on a remote server I can't fix.

For those following along, this sort of response is why I'm optimistic overall. And bcachefs was dramatically higher performance than ZFS, although the lack of an ARC is a particular pain point.

It's going to be an interesting bug, I'm pretty sure. It affected two sets of files: The Steam Linux runtime (Solder), and everything in /nix/store, but absolutely nothing else. Actually, I think it's probably a bug in the fsck routine; everything worked perfectly until I rebooted.
You may not be aware but after SpaceX acquired Swarm, they now use argon Hall thrusters, so even cheaper than krypton.

I like Pages, Numbers and Keynote. No ribbons and proper use of monitor width. It helps that macOS still keeps the menubar too.
Yes and that will soon require killing a lot of people at the borders.
It has been OK for my needs, but I think you are best getting the KVM and returning if it doesn't meet your needs. I'd probably be more concerned if this was for my photography or gaming machine. For a work setup it has been fine for me.

>I don't care how "casual" a gamer someone is, they will never be better off giving up so much in exchange for so little,

maybe you should care more, then. Because you clearly haven't considered the POV of the casual gamer. They want to see a game, download it, tinker for a few hours, and move on. They don't care about data or ads and they sure won't stick around long for subscriptions.

You can't understand an audience if you dismiss them like that.
>>But math reasoning really filters out people in a way nothing else does.

Learning Math is just like learning a language, the issue is the script/alphabet/symbols used to communicate, its dictionary, its grammar are all complicated its hard for common people to get a grip on it.

Almost all people can follow logical sequence of arguments provided they understand the language in which they are described.

This language so far is the greatest barrier to bringing Math to public. Probably a new teaching method is needed.
I think it could be a very good replacement. In my opinion ZFS is still very static and disk/block based with some traditional RAID modes on top.

It can provide the same redundancy and safety but with tons more flexibility. For example having different redundancy levels using the same pool of disks and changing redundancy levels on the fly. It does feel like a huge step in in terms of "here are my disks" and then "please store this data this way". bcachefs then just does it in a reasonable and efficient way. Way better than having to set up all of your disk RAID configs upfront.

That being said it definitely still needs stability work. I tried it and it corrupted itself. So I love the idea, the design seems good overall. But it is going to need lots of testing and tweaking to become reliable. However it does seem like a solid addition to the filesystem space and I think being upstream will allow more people to work on it, avoid extra maintenance burden by staying in sync with changes and get the attention it deserves.

I wrote more about why I like the design and how it corrupted for me here: https://kevincox.ca/2023/06/10/bcachefs-attempt/
It actually seems less likely now. Russia didn't have the military strength to invade the other European countries but we didn't know until they bashed themselves against Ukraine. Back when the current war started analysts seemed to be predicting it would be over in days or weeks.

The nuclear side is still scary but the idea that Russia would even try to engage NATO forces and then have a showdown seems ludicrous.
Yes. It's professional, not personal, it is in no way weird or creepy to just say "hey interesting background, any interest in getting coffee with me?" just like you would with a new colleague at work. But it's pretty much everyone you can meet that way, not just people at your own company.

I'll argue that, in 2023, the most basic 'computer' skills are knowing how to:

* buy a smartphone (okay, not even a skill)

* connect to the internet

* visit a website

* install an app

* use basic apps, e.g. read/send email, read/send text messages, view/take photos

That's it. And none of this is necessary for survival, nor to even be what I'd call a well-rounded person. They're just modern conveniences. Things beyond this are trainable. People get bonus points for knowing how to use 2FA or spot phishing attempts or other scams, but I view this is going beyond the purview of basic computer skills into basic cybersecurity.

So I don't see not knowing what Excel is as equivalent to not 'knowing computers.' But you know what, why do you get to choose what is a 'cool thing' to celebrate? If someone chooses to be computer illiterate and celebrates it, why is that a problem? My wife doesn't know how to drive. Guess what, she'll never murder someone with a car. Kudos to her.
A related scenario to collisions that may be of concern is that, if LEO gets too crowded, the orbits may ossify and become finite real estate trading on the market. If players anticipate this happening, they might flood the orbits with the satellite equivalent of the parking pages that domain name traders use, and simultaneously push for a favorable version of orbit regulations/property rights. Essentially, an enclosure of the LEO commons.

This could prevent smaller players from working their way up and lead to a monopolization of space by a handful of private entities, imposing a tax on innovation/exploration in space.

This is basically the methodology behind an Ishikawa (fishbone) diagram.

It’s a pretty useful way of representing things (although I personally prefer indented bullet points).
Such a metric needs quite some thought, though.

What is "good public transport"? A tiny village with 24 souls and one busline will probably have more "public transport opportunities per capita" than Tokyo.
A very dense city has lower travel times than a spread out (or mountainous) city even if their "amount of PT" is exactly the same.

As such, "good public transportation" either needs an entire bookwork to describe the metrics (and is therefore rather unusable), or is just a highly subjective metric.
Plenty of kids might have also got either a bicycle or a Gameboy for Christmas but I'm not sure this makes them comparable categories.

This is extremely old news. Here's SpaceX's explanation (included at the end of the Forbes article), which I think is quite cogent:

> Our Starlink team last exchanged an email with the Aeolus operations team on August 28, when the probability of collision was only in the 2.2e-5 range (or 1 in 50k), well below the 1e-4 (or 1 in 10k) industry standard threshold and 75 times lower than the final estimate. At that point, both SpaceX and ESA determined a maneuver was not necessary. Then, the U.S. Air Force's updates showed the probability increased to 1.69e-3 (or more than 1 in 10k) but a bug in our on-call paging system prevented the Starlink operator from seeing the follow on correspondence on this probability increase – SpaceX is still investigating the issue and will implement corrective actions. However, had the Starlink operator seen the correspondence, we would have coordinated with ESA to determine best approach with their continuing with their maneuver or our performing a maneuver.
I run it on a nuc with a cheap 1tb nvme drive and it is fast enough. I have zero RAW photos though.
The only rigorous definition of "craft" is the one the brewer's association maintains, and they tweak it frequently to keep Sam Adams in. Lagunitas was a craft brewer by that definition until they sold to Heineken. There was a period of a few years where a number of old-guard regional craft brewers sold to international conglomerates.

For my money while the brewery may not be craft anymore, the beer still is. Or, if someone calls Lagunitas IPA a craft beer I'm not going to correct them - I might if it was blue moon or leininkugels, say.
They are using the ads retargeting pixel to retarget ads.
