My problem is less the article and more the response to just read the article.

While yes I have an issue with the article headline, the person I am responding to just saying "read the article" is just feeding into clickbait.

I really don't think we should be saying "it's their style" as a defense for bad clickbait headlines when we are actively spreading those headlines. Clickbait is a serious problem on the internet and here we are defending it? No... it deserves to be called out. I don't care how funny it is, they are not the onion.
They factually aren’t:

The modern Democratic Party is outraged that the US Supreme Court told them this month that “there’s too many Asians!” isn’t a legal basis to engage in systemic racism at universities like Harvard and UNC.

Multiple Democrat politicians publicly have condemned that victory for civil rights — because their platform is rebuilding institutional racism.

I don’t know how twisted up you have to be to think the same party that founded the KKK, implemented Jim Crow, implemented racial quotas, and implemented systemic racism against Asians is somehow the one fighting for civil rights — but it’s factually untrue.

Democrats right now, today, are fighting to rebuild organized racism.

As they have for 150 years.
Re: the author of that -

Hey I know the person who made this!

Thanks for sharing, it really was a labor of love. I remember Griffin being super excited about how it turned out. They are really passionate about the worlds fair!
It’s entirely possible that Threads never succeeds to the level of Twitter, but still sucks up enough eyeballs and revenue to make Twitter unworkable as a business.
America the Stoned
Can’t those platforms de monetize or hide your content or even ban you according to whatever criteria suits them? It’s great until it’s not. Shaky foundation.
Which is funny because if they wanted to make $40,000 a year all they would need to work at is an Amazon fulfillment center or an Amazon warehouse and they will make that wage. So are they choosing to work in a low pay low skill job?
That's what you get when its not organic diversity reflecting reality but a forced one, by corporate order #123 to 'be diverse or forget grammy' or whatever triggered this self-censoring direction of past decade.

Sad part happens due to rise of situations where certain art (and I still call much of Hollywood product an art, just like white triangle on white canvas can be called one) can't be produced anymore. Think about ie Tropical Thunder, even Downey jr admitted it would be impossible to do such project only a decade later due to exactly this. I guess the conservatives again won, even if within diversity movement.

I recall vividly, when doing Aconcagua trip few years ago, one team member was a 2nd or 3rd generation taiwanese immigrant lady from New York. She was so pissed off how diversity movements in US are actually racist towards any other than black race, specifically her own. Try to say anything, ask anything, and you are immediately labeled as another racist, no discussion, no understanding.

I guess we all get why its wrong and then somehow on our own come up with ways to adhere to it, and sometimes some folks overdo it just to not be seen as not caring enough. Western Europe is same scheize, especially it seems English folks tend to go that extra mile in this without any actual need for it. Eastern Europe just stares cluelessly, we really don't get this since we have no shameful racist history to work through (plenty of other shameful history to work with though, but we prefer being ignorant and tell ourselves sweet little or big lies to feel good, critical thinking ain't popular here).
Jackie Chan's Drunken Masters got drunken across even through dubbing.
Not necessarily if you build them right. Nintendo’s Switch is a true microkernel and, if it cost 200% performance, there’s no way it would be viable on a 2015 Tegra X1. The 200% thing is kind of a myth that doesn’t apply to modern practice - now it’s more like 10%.

As for 10% security - it’s more than 10%. Take my same example, the Switch. No bugs have been found to launch unapproved software in the last 4 years. There’s always the Secure Boot bug by NVIDIA in earlier consoles, but not even a WebKit bug will get you homebrew on a Switch. Kind of a big deal…

Another example of this would be Microsoft’s experiments with what would happen if an OS was built with all apps running in managed code - no compiled apps. Performance cost? They got it down to just 7% (though, admittedly, Midori never shipped, but it did host Bing in a few countries for a few years.)
Big beef’s climate messaging machine: confuse, defend and downplay
Studios are essentially big piles of cash to fund movies; rights to scripts, stories and IPs to make movies; and contracts to distribute movies (and, since everything old is new again, they now also own streaming services rather than movie theaters). So it makes economic sense to lock down as much IP as possible that can then be used to generate an endless torrent of remakes, sequels, adaptations, secondary media, adaptations of secondary media, remakes of adaptations of secondary media, and so on; much more cost-effective than hunting for new screenplays in the slush pile, and much more comforting to the investors to see the next two years of movies on a PowerPoint slide at the shareholder meeting, even if you have no idea what those movies are beyond a title and some executive producer's vague plan.
On Fedora, I usually have issues with video playback, wayland, and browser/tab crashes.
They just said they're more used to the Chrome version, not that the Firefox version is lacking.

(Personally I'm with you in preferring Firefox dev tools - although I'm not someone who needs to use them more than a few times a month - not because I have any specific issues with Chrome dev tools, but because I prefer Firefox, and Mozilla, generally, and I've not found anything that FF can't do.)
You could have a medical procedure certification card.
I don’t actually care what it returns as long it’s something that doesn’t take O(n) to compute. Feel free to rename it too if you don’t want it to be confused with strscpy.
I think it would be much more deterministic/mechanical if we did translations of the words and didn’t touch grammar/structure, but that does not have mass-market appeal as the flow is disrupted and some words get denser.
Yep, Firebug
Out of the box Tree Style Tabs is not very good, due to decisions made by Firefox that are beyond the control of Tree Style Tabs's developer.

Enabling the desired behavior likely requires quite a few steps beyond just installing the extension.

https://github.com/piroor/treestyletab/wiki/Code-snippets-fo...

Originally, Firefox had a dropdown menu that allowed the user to choose whether tabs were on the top, bottom, left, or right.

This has been an annoying trend with Firefox for some time. They take the default, expected functionality, marginalize it while saying "Users who prefer the old way can enable it in a setting / extension" and then the setting gets deprecated or the extension stops working.

See also: "Classic Theme Restorer".

All the while software that might work better as an extension is bundled with Firefox and enabled by default. e.g. "Pocket", "Hello".
Not being able to smell sucks. I was able to smell for the first 20+ years of my life and then lost it.

After years of going to doctors getting treated for polyps and allergies and all kinds of things I was diagnosed with Samter's Triad.

I know you have this since birth and it most likely is not what you have, but other people with similar symptoms may want to look into that, because not many doctors that I came across knew this.
Two recent Criterion releases that have got criticized for colour grading were the Wong Kar-Wai boxset, and the Kieślowski “Three Colours” 4K re-release. But the Wong Kar-Wai colour grading was the director’s own choice and simply handed over to Criterion, while crew on the Kieślowski pictures claim that the 4K re-release colour grading is more faithful to the original celluloid than the earlier Blu-Ray release.

Zuck is evil, while Musk is just childish sometimes. Social media is a lot worse for the world than electric cars and cheap rockets.
The city of San Francisco is ~10% of NYC's population so it's not a good comparison.
That is fascinating that your sense of smell came back "due to covid" and then went away again. I'm suffering from long covid as well and the loss of probably 50% of my ability to smell. Taste went away at the same time as smell, but it quickly came back within a week. Not so with my sense of smell.
As the other commenters said, it's about testing your palate vs. your tongue. I made a mistake in my original comment where I said you don't have a sense of taste without smell, I meant to say you have only taste (sweet, sour, salty, bitter, umami) absent the flavors your olfactory equipment provides.
US opens new special probe into fatal Tesla crash
Weird then that the major wins of the Civil Rights Era like the Voting Rights Act are being attacked by GOP state legislatures and dismantled by Supreme Court Justices that were appointed by GOP presidents.

Yes, the people who had the affiliation "Democrat" in the 50s and 60s were the most visible drivers of segregationist policies. So what?
Especially new “Eco Friendly” cars like the 7,000lb Rivian which, if it hits another car, is going to completely obliterate it and kill any occupants inside.
> Streaming distributors (e.g. Netflix, Prime Video, Apple TV) will simply go abroad and market foreign productions to American audiences

Very skeptical about this. You'll see a bit of it while the strike is on, but the quality difference is real and the average US audience hates both sub and dub content.

You might get a bit of e.g. Scandinavian murder mystery or Korean drama, especially following the breakthrough of Squid Game.

qsort is also only as expensive as what I pass in. If it did a bubble sort internally I would be pretty upset though.
This really surprised me when I learned of this story on the weekend. Very little discussion, very little reception in IT news.

Someone hacked Azure AD[1] and accessed the data of 25+ orgs and the reaction is *crickets*?

[1] I'm not exactly sure which Azure component was hacked and the MS communication seems intentionally unclear and obtuse on this. It sounds like the private keys of Azure-internal auth servers were stolen, but technically those private keys were not supposed to work for the accounts/orgs in question, except they did, and, in any case, MS doesn't disclose how the private keys (one? multiple?) of their cloud auth servers were stolen.

> Has there ever been a time when the suits weren't ignoramuses?

The Sony leaks from years ago showed that the executive level lived up to every stereotype of an out of touch and ignorant executive that you could imagine.

It's possible that things have somehow changed since then, but I doubt it.
I'm not too knowledgeable when it comes to how scientific experiments/trials are done - are the people who collect the data, the people who interpret the data, and the people who fund/benefit from the data different parties? Or are they the same people?
"The good thing about it being a negative result means that we don’t have to start considering transaction costs or other annoying things like that."

This cracked me up. Haha. That is a good way to look as a "loosing strategy".
There unfortunately are too many perverse incentives that encourage fraudulent studies. Everyone should take findings "established in the literature" with a grain of salt. We should also incorporate more intuition and first-principles reasoning, i.e. obesity is a harmful state for humans even if 100 RCTs proved otherwise.
How can you do science if around a quarter of the data is just straight up noise? Even when analysing large amounts of studies the results becone contaminated very easily.

And why is it not standard practice to provide anonymous data or even publish the data? What reason exists for that? So that only the researchers them selves can analyze it?
There are always exceptions and edge cases. Plantations and farms are generally neither known as examples of urban design, nor are they homes for majority of population of any state.

But even using the example of 18th century plantation - the idea of a parking lot for more than a dozen or so horse drawn carriages seems somewhat... straight out of Flinstones.

I agree that You can find some early examples of the modern "carriage-based" urbanism earlier than in the 20th century, but those would be very specific cases. If 90% of the population lives in some denser urban setting and mostly walks, "their" neighborhoods will reflect that in how and where they are built (at least after a generation or two that's necessary for construction). Same reasoning applies if that ratio changes and within a generation or two, everyone suddenly can afford to own a car. The question is now which way do we (and, by proxy, the politicians we elect) want to promote.
If the movie is mixed correctly, AND you have an adjustable 5.1 or higher sound system, set the center speaker WAY UP.

If they mixed it right, center speaker should be mainly dialogue.
Tree Style Tabs would be so great if it had folders/nodes for categories of tabs. My workaround are tabs with fittingly named Wikipedia articles, but a builtin feature would be more pleasant to use.
I just assumed I was going deaf as I get older.
It's possible sure but unlikely. There's a reason why there are countless news channels that span the political spectrum. Just because some orgs jump ship from Twitter, doesn't mean that all of them will, and there will be some orgs who tolerate it.

Twitter has a large user base who just use it because it has 500M daily active users.
Firefox is slower for me than Chrome, but that's because I have tab hoarding problem(2k tabs in Firefox right now).
99.999% of people will never be in this situation and they don't care. Ask people if they want Singapore's safety and they will take it.
The big thing is childcare from stay at home parents. That counts as 0 GDP, but put them in daycare and give the parent a job that's a net loss financially to the family and GDP has grown considerably.
Order-preserving encryption from cryptdb written in Rust. Works also in WASM
Blind guess: GPU driver bug
Since the error path is the largest one (the string doesn’t fit…) it makes sense to bound its execution. I would not recommend the others FWIW for exactly the reasons you mentioned.
You could argue <language X> IS NOT (high-level) does not necessarily imply <language X> IS (low-level), in which case no-one classified C++ as low-level.

I guess for the large part the inter-op here is from (mostly) interpreted languages, which are certainly higher level than C++.

Maybe instead of it being a binary choice between high-level and low-level languages, there is a middle ground. Fairly easy to argue that as the case.
Well, so can Hollywood. The completed but unreleased Batgirl movie was simply deleted.
The megacorp who actively designed algorithms that boosted content that made people angry, and allowed for third-parties to manipulate their APIs into influencing elections.
Economies of scale aren’t nearly there for EVs, also:

Every safety regulation has an associated regulatory overhead tax on the cost of vehicles (and homes) due to the increased people/materials/machine/quality control/etc complexity.

It is great to raise the safety bar, but knowing it helps put new things out of price ranges is a trade off.
Yes, they have new films under "premieres" and "20th century cinema".
In the first anecdote the author recounted, I suspect the reason that opening up the codebase to Adam was so effective is that Adam had a mathematical background.

It's not true that anyone who has studied mathematics at a high level is effective in tech, but the ones who make it into tech (in whatever role, not just as programmers) tend to have this same characteristic. They are thinking in terms of problems to solve, and if a problem needs automation, they will figure out automation.

I am always willing to give people with mathematical backgrounds a chance, regardless of experience or current skills.

I think similar principles might apply to the lawyer who started reading/writing unit tests and maybe to the other cases as well.
I'm a bit confused by the UI. Looks like the test is for windows. Did someone manage to test it for Linux and MacOS as well? (not sure what test we are supposed to use)
Apple Maps is infinitely superior to Google Maps to get walking directions. It's very easy to understand where I'm looking at on the map.

There must be more to it. Everyone who drops out is scrutinized.
personally setup an Ubuntu LTS for the worst offender class -- daily email, zoom calls, attachments with important documents.. doesnt know what a folder is, doesnt know what browser they have, doesnt quit get the difference between RAM and disk space.

three years+ daily solid operation, no tech support problems except very rare microphone problems.

If you do not change the peripherals, and the client uses a browser mostly, then "long way away" is just false in 2020s.
I think it depends on what you mean by "you can afford it".

At some level that's the nature of midlife crisis, identifying what it is you have and what you want, and what you can have.

If you are happy with what you have despite all its costs, it's not really a crisis because you've identified that as such. Even if you're not entirely happy with it but you recognize that it is a net good for you and your family, there's no crisis either. If some things you identified as benefits before are now seen as serious costs — to family, children, morality, or integrity, among other things — but there's an easy and painless way to rectify things, there's also no crisis.

The problem — the crisis — is in recognizing or believing that what you once saw as good things are actually costly, but rectifying it is also fraught with large and probably unknown costs. Maybe you've realized the vocation you're in is actually rife with immorality and corruption, or maybe you've realized that your career has completely cost your children precious, limited time with a good family, or whatever, but you've gotten so far along that the costs and likelihood of changing careers are also great. That's the nature of the crisis.

At some level I think you could say it's a crisis of privilege but I don't think so. I think it comes anytime a set of life choices, over a long time and with many costs, leads one to a position of deep dissatisfaction and realization that there's limited time to right things. My sense is that doesn't really depend on socioeconomic status necessarily.

The other side of it is there are apparently studies showing similar mood changes over the course of life happen in completely other species, so there's an argument that it really has nothing to do with existential or sociological issues at all and is very biological. Based on my own experiences that seems hard to believe though; my guess is midlife crises can happen for many different reasons, and aren't limited to midlife.
Don't forget Alpine Linux, which almost everyone will call Linux because it has "Linux" in the name, but also doesn't use GNU, instead running the Linux kernel with musl and busybox as the C library and userspace system utils. It seems technically less "Linux" by this metric than Chrome OS and equal to Android.

I don't think this is principled really beyond the fact that Google chose to use different branding whereas FOSS distro vendors actually called what they distributed "Linux." Sort of how Hyenas are phylogenetically feliform but most people consider them dogs.
I said range not weight. Please actually read my comment.
I'm a bit surprised, I thought people would like the heavy handed censorship model.

With the risk of starting a flame war, we recently had several well-publicised clinical trials that reported 95% efficacy of some certain modality. Yet, in reality, efficacy as defined in the trial turned out to be closer to 0%.

Instead of investigating what in the design and execution of the trial led to such a discrepancy, the problem was handled by denying there was a problem, changing the goalposts, reporting ad-hoc hypotheses as facts, silencing all critics, and forcing the public to take the modality anyway or lose jobs, school, and freedom of movement.

US Cattle mutilations on US ranches with what were presumed to be hand held laser cutters or super sharp knifes, considering the thickness of the skin of cattle is comparable to honey badgers at around 6mm, was to harvest organs to monitor radiation levels in grazing animals.

The US mil will of course deny there is a problem or that their past actions and experiments contributed to elevated background levels of radiation that today effect everyone on this planet.
Just in time for Arc to be canceled (or at least de-emphasized), apparently.
I don't think it's a good idea.

I use Obsidian Sync top sync between laptop to my iOS devices, and I still have sometimes conflicts.

If your team is technical then it's better to use git-backed vaults, and everyone on the team would commit/pull/push changes using standard git mechanism.

For realtime collaboration with non-technical team members I would use something else, e.g. Notion.

Maybe there is some Obsidian vommunity plugin which adds limited realtime collaboration features? I would ask on the official forum.
For 1: returning an int means that you get some unspecified behavior on overflow. For 2 then you need to call strlen yourself which kind of defeats the point of using snprintf because you can just use memcpy instead.
It could also include POP3 and LMTP (local mail transport protocol)
