> And then the librarian who wrote "this change is a real downgrade", their reason for why its a downgrade didn't make this blog post. Why not? Maybe because the reason why they felt that way was "For one, there is no way for libraries to see which patron clicked Notify Me for which title." Good! I don't necessarily want librarians to know "John Smith wants a copy of whatever", all they should know is that someone wants that book

It did make it into the blog post, it's literally the rest of the paragraph after that quote. I guess I can ignore everything else you're saying the to criticize the blog post because you made this one mistake.

> But the author makes it sound like the only way for a library to know what books are being requested is by the Advantage program, which by their own sources isn't true!

No, the author explicitly mention that the new change, read the paragraph above the paragraph where the Advantage Program is described.

> If their real concern was that we should have access to pricing data they should have actually included such a concept in their post, because they pretty much never do other than state libraries need to buy an Advantage subscription, which isn't true.

No the real concern, which you conveniently repeatedly fail to address, is that this is a monopoly, owned by a notoriously unscrupulous private equity firm, that holds the future of library patronage in its hands.

At this point, you're not adding any value to the discussion. You're just incorrectly nitpicking the article when you haven't bothered to read it closely enough to do so with any accuracy.
The war was driven by nazi ideology, not an actual rational assessment of reality. For example, there is no version of WWII that doesn't involve Hitler wanting to destroy communism by conquering the soviets, and even just that one thing basically means there was no real path to victory.

Nazi ideology was not based in reality, which is why they started a war that they would inevitably lose. Hitler was playing map painting in a video game, not analyzing reality.

There's a lot of people in here arguing like there's some significant faction of people that truly believe we've got enough proof that we have an RTAPS and are somehow negatively impacting their life because of it.

I'm excited enough about this that I've read about 3500 HN comments on the subject over the past few days. I've talked about it with friends of various levels of science literacy. I've seen it come up in various discords, IRC channels, etc.

And... I'm not seeing any real amount of people doing that. The twitter crowd is largely people just memeposting with "FLOAT THE ROCK!", places like HN have a bit more technical discussion about it, lots of other places it comes up in conversation and people shrug and go "huh that might be cool hope it works out tell me in 6 months"

But even as someone with enough free time this week to read all these comments and engage in the discussion so much, it's not like I'm sitting here expecting 15 years from now we'll all be living in a superconductor wonderland. If I had to make a bet one way or the other, I'd probably bet it won't be. But that doesn't mean this whole thing isn't fun and entertaining.

We've got some potentially world altering thing that is potentially real, and replicating it is easy enough that we have engineers and scientists all over the world doing it in public. Most of these kind of things require lots of funding, labs with advanced tools, access to exotic materials, etc. Instead, this time, we get to watch it on Twitter, Bilibili, etc.

It's possible for people to recognize that this is a potentially world altering discovery and be hyped about the process and visibility we have in it, as well as realize that the most likely outcome at this point is "LK99 does some weird diamagnetic stuff that looks cool but probably isn't actually an RTAPS"

I don't think things will improve if you don't say it's an issue (to either your mgr or theirs).

If you say "hey, I'm the middle of working on X. Can't this wait until we have our 1:1?" do you think that wouldn't be well received?

Also, maybe give them some information on how expensive context switching is.

This both seems like bad news and oddly non newsworthy. Didn't we already have autonomous drones?
> The problem with people who are recognized as experts is that they have a high likelihood of wanting status and power.

In order for this to have any useful predictive power, you have to also demonstrate that "the people who are correct" don't want status and power, and also that the set of people who are correct doesn't overlap with the set of experts.
The unspoken assumption here is that industry going underground and dispersing doesn't reduce it's capacity.

Agree & disagree. What you need is a language where all of these features are first class, piping/compose operators, etc. but without this, the code base becomes unidiomatic, hard to read, and difficult for coworkers to understand. Forcing it into JS is where you have a bad time – there are many options for functional languages that compile to JS tho.
Well mainly because the universities themselves frame it antisemitically, by tacitly splitting up a certain number of "white" seats between Jews and non-Jews. If they threw Jews in with the "diversity seats" or with Asians you wouldn't hear so much about the Jews taking away "our" (eg: non-Jewish white) university seats, since the minority with which we were being made to "compete" would be a lot smaller.
“The Software Conservancy analysis summarized the conundrum as a pick-your-poison scenario: “In essence, Red Hat requires their customers to choose between (a) their software freedom and rights, and (b) remaining a Red Hat customer.” End-users are allowed to exercise their right to redistribute the code but if they do, they face the consequence of Red Hat canceling their subscription and being cut off from future versions of the software and Red Hat services.”

—-
This is the key issue imo. How can you be in compliance with “..if you distribute copies of such a program, whether gratis or for a fee, you must give the recipients all the rights that you have.”

… if you make non-redistribution a requirement to even get access to begin with..?

I’m sure I’m misunderstanding though at some level
As a fairy heavy drug user, I feel I should chime in since it appears most of the comments here are coming from "normies" whose experience with users seems to be limited to homeless street addicts or family/friends who fell apart.

1. There are far more users out there than you realize. Almost all of my friends use, they all live normal lives and you wouldn't know it unless you actively partied with them. There are vast swaths of society that aren't opiate or meth addicts, but partake in coke, ketamine, psychedelics, mdma, etc regularly without consequence. You just aren't seeing it.

2. Anyone who hasn't been through the criminal justice ringer for drugs likely does not fully appreciate how devastating it can be. In most cases it does not contribute positively to a person's life, can hinder future employment, can cost a person their job, their livelihood, their housing, their kids, etc., for what was likely a victimless crime. Decriminalization, within reason, is a moral imperative. Full legalization, with regulation, is the only way to effectively deal with the problem in its entirety, from supply on down, the same as it was with alcohol.

3. Using drugs is a personal choice that people should be free to make, the same as using alcohol (a drug as debilitating, toxic, addictive, etc as most illegal drugs), or scuba diving, or skydiving, or any other high risk activity that we tolerate. Like the latter activities, you can implement licensing requirements such as mandatory education and fees to fund abuse treatment programs. Legalizing it across the board will mandate safe and responsible supply, and remove the criminal organizations from the equation. Again, look at what happened with alcohol prohibition and its eventual legalization. It is the EXACT same as what we are experiencing with drugs.

4. Because it is entirely possible to use drugs responsibly, its use in and of itself should not be the focus of criminal enforcement. It is bad behavior that is the issue, and like alcohol, we can criminalize it. Driving drunk, public intoxication, child endangerment, domestic abuse, assault, property damage, etc are all problems we have with drunks, and all are criminalized respectively. There is no reason why we can't do the same with drugs.

5. Addiction is a serious issue. But it is a public health issue, and should be treated as such. Turning addicts into criminals is just making a difficult situation worse. These people are sick, they should get help. We also need to serious expand programs for the homeless, as the housing problem is what drives a lot of what you see on the streets.
That's true, but even the less memorable v4 addresses are easier to deal with and nicer on the eyes. And on a LAN with a NAT, you typically get memorable addresses like 192.168.1.2.

Maybe the bigger issue was trying to get rid of NAT. People don't want every local network device to have a public IP and have to trust that the router's v6 firewall will do its job.

By analogy, it sounds like I give you the right to walk across a line, but I also have the right to shoot anyone that crosses the line. This has the net effect that you effectively are not allowed to cross the line.

I have an entire rant about how ADHD kids are abused by the public school system.

The worst idea ever is assigning them "monitors". The kid is in a classroom that goes too slow to hold their interest. And there is an adult whose job is to torture them with reminders to return to task every time they get distracted. Guess how well this works? And yet it is a standard IEP intervention used across the country!

For less than the cost of adding the monitor, you could move the same kid into an environment where they can learn at their own pace. Thereby saving money, having the child learn faster, and removing a major source of disruptions for the rest of the class. But we've literally passed a law mandating "mainstreaming", which makes the common-sense and effective intervention illegal unless the parent pays for it out of pocket.

But that is a rant for another day.

Have you seen a lot of non-lazy design in the last decade? It’s one trend after another and a general tendency for the UI to offer the bare minimum in functionality and call it design.
In the late 10s I worked at a startup that was not adopting Flow or TypeScript, and pushing FP using Ramda/lodash-fp seemed like a way to encourage devs to separate out data from dataflow and make things into reusable pieces. Instead of some spaghetti imperative code, we could write a bunch of small functions that work on well-known entities, and compose them up to make a procedure. In theory it was better.

When the company finally came around to using TypeScript, devs could once again reason about code and data and relationships between functions without resorting to abstraction, and the FP stuff died a quick death.

I am continually baffled by how keyboard enthusiasts almost never have ergonomic layouts. If you care this much about typing, surely the first thing you do is get an ergo layout.

Creating additional barriers to rights holders to bring suit can only benefit the entity infringing. Why should the rights holder need to promise anything? Release the software under the rights or face termination of the license as they see fit? If you want back in, bring your checkbook.

You're not reading it wrong. The popular understanding of the GPL vs. the actual text of the GPL are two extremely different things.

Red Hat is far from alone in this. If I'm not mistaken, there's a whole cottage industry of WordPress plugin and theme developers who use basically this model. The plugin or theme is GPL'ed because it depends on WordPress, which is GPLed. But they gate the software and require payment to get it. They may also have an agreement that sets out a limit on redistribution for access - if you buy the theme or plugin from them and then set about redistributing it, they're not going to take your money in the future.

I can't think of any good way to close the "loophole" here in a GPL-type license that doesn't essentially force a developer to distribute to anybody they've ever done business with, forever. Any language that would force Red Hat to keep its subscription with an "offending" customer would also tie their hands for cutting off access for other reasons -- because who wouldn't claim that the reason Red Hat cut the subscription was over distribution?
Read the article :) :)

It has a link to the original report
>Whatever advantage they gained by being absurdly and annoyingly aggressive, they slowly lost as the Allies gained the technological advantage

I think there was also a lag between when the Nazis committed any given strategic blunder, and when the real consequences of that blunder came due.

Hitler's obsession with Stalingrad in particular, bailing out Mussolini's adventurism, the constant and maddening obsession with complexity in their war materiel, etc

Its also not that the Allies were more technologically advanced per se, its that they had a much better understanding of design for manufacturing. The Sherman tank and the T-34 were, in most every respect, inferior tanks to the Tiger. But in the time it took to build that 1 tiger, American factories churned out 6 Shermans. Soviet factories churned out 6 T-34s. The entire German offensive strategy hinged on blitzkrieg, and their economy was barely able to sustain that, let alone a besieged economy with limited resources, supporting increasingly bogged-down and defensive campaigns.

A lot of hay is made out of the Nazi superweapons, but not many people reflect on the fact that only about 50,000 Kubelwagens were ever produced, while the US shipped that many Jeeps to the Soviets, then built another 550,000 for themselves. Because of all of this, Germany basically lost the war when they failed to hold any of their objectives on the Ostfront, it just took years for the whole train to come to a stop. I think a similar analysis can be applied to Japan regarding their failure to end the Pacific carrier fleet at Pearl Harbor (I recall reading that as Japanese industrial capability failed through the war, A6M "Zero" fighters had to be moved by horses because Japan could not afford the cars necessary to move them around at the factory).
I'm no stranger to this problem. Quite the opposite actually.
I had this issue when I had a larger team to manage. I'm also one of those who remembers an email that was sent 3 years ago by some random guy listing all these useful things. However,it doesn't work for most people.
The communication needs some guidance too
1) anything quick and simple- chat
2) something more complex - email
3) something complex and likely to stay relevant long in the future - knowledge base, documentation, etc
4) major announcement- medium matters less but they need to be stored somewhere for people to refer to later.

Communication requires enforcement too: I had people in my team that kept saying that they weren't told about x,y,and z. If those are repeated behaviours( they usually are), they need to be managed accordingly so people would start take it seriously.
Just never let management see the prototype or they'll consider it done and tell you to move on to something else.
This is actually a really good illustration for why this is a bad idea. ChatGPT successfully made your comment more wordy and pretentious without making it any clearer.

I actually much preferred your original comment, but if I were going to rework it I'd try to eliminate the comma-delimited parenthetical. Simply dropping the commas would be an improvement, at which point the only other change I'd make would be to replace "reads fluent" with "reads fluently".

What ChatGPT did instead was double down on that comma clause to make it even more distracting, and keep "fluent" as is while lengthening the rest of the clause to make that usage grammatically correct. It kept the wrong anchor points from your original formulation and ended up changing more than it needed to for a worse result.
If I did that, I'd be intentionally leaving out critical information that is necessary to understand the context, motivation, and aim of the article.
The economy is the problem. It doesn't accurately model externalities that we now know are important (climate change) or that we've always known were issues (inequality). The economy can be doing great and all of that value can be captured by a few people at the top, who then wreak havoc on everyone else. All the while the eco-sphere gets toasted because extracting value from natural resources at an ever increasing pace is also good for the economy.

Both the environment and wealth inequality have hit or are very close to hitting the breaking point. My original point about MMT was that we'll need a radically new system to fix the problem. The one we have can't be brought there through the control mechanisms that exist.
If you're doing a PhD, that point is a weekly chat with your supervisor. I don't see why a few hour "rabbit hole" would be a problem in software engineering. If we're even discussing hours unless billing hourly, that's a red flag for micromanagement.
I haven't followed gnustep in a long time, but I thought renaissance was a library that was an alternative to NIB files, with an XML format.

Back when I wrote some small apps, it was very easy to target Mac with the GNUstep makefile package. That could build on Mac without any extra work on the build side. I would sprinkle a lot with #ifdef __APPLE__ when the APIs differ, on a case by case basis. A lot of things (most?) work on both without modification, it just depends how new the API is.
The style of music matters. For example lyrics kill my ability to think.

For a long time I thought I couldn't. Then I found lots of playlists of pretty good music. Try https://www.programmersmusic.com/ and see if any of those styles work for you.

Note, I now find that music helps me focus, but lessens my creativity. So I only sometimes use music.
