Worth noting that, according to NASA:

Do scientists think that changes in solar irradiance due to the 11-year solar cycle could be strong enough to cause the current change being measured in Earth's climate?

In a word, no.

Scientists agree that the solar cycle and its associated short-term changes in irradiance cannot be the main force driving the changes in Earth's climate we are currently seeing.

For one thing, the Sun's energy output only changes by up to 0.15% over the course of the cycle, less than what would be needed to force the change in climate that we see.

Also, scientists have not been able to find convincing evidence that the 11-yr cycle is mirrored in any aspects of the climate beyond the stratosphere – such as surface temperature, rainfall or wind patterns.

https://www.nasa.gov/mission_pages/sunearth/solar-events-new...

The cycle is a regular small flucuation in total energy with relatively little change in the part of the spectrum that comes all the way through the atmosphere to heat up the land and water .. ibcreasing insulation trapping that heat has been the driver of climate change here.

If you read the linked article or any related science article the focus is on the geomagnetic surges caused by the changes in the suns field.

As a security geek, and someone who's written on how passwords should be considered harmful. Github is wrong here. If I'm not willing to participate in this security "upgrade", it will not meaningful increase my security. In fact there's plenty of contrived scenarios in where this will decrease security.

Say I run a FOSS project and leave my 2fa at home when I leave for some vacation? And in that same time I get a report about a security bug. If I cant login to fix or even remove a binary. My users will be at risk! you'd better hope it's a short vacation.

Also, as an existing user of 2fa on GH, GH's implemention can get fucked! It auto submits 2fa otps for you. I've been locked out of my account for HOURS, multiple times because I'll fat finger one extra key, or the wrong number without realizing it, only to have GH "helpfully" submit the wrong number, i wouldn't have, as the last chance before a lockout timer.

> what's the problem here

It's not anyone else responsibility to make security decisions for me. And if I wont play along with GH 2fa security rules, GH doesn't gain any security benefit themselves. Which means this new requirement can *only* make things worse. That's the problem. Also, I assume you didn't mean this comment to sound so dismissive, but that's definitely how it reads. Feels very much like your omitted preamble is "just do what GH tells you and don't complain".
>customers were given 14 days to move their data

14 days is not nearly enough for private customers to react. Often vacations can be longer than that, and people don't usually vacation with their laptops and external HDDs to places with fast broadband, just in case they need to make a spontaneous external backup of their cloud data. Imagine by the time you come home all your data is irrecoverably gone. That's fucking nuts.

Should be at least 30 days by law.

Magic boxing and "weird movement" of Dragoons is what separated the n00bs from the pros.

Spending hours of practice inside of Starcraft, memorizing the size of the magic box *IS* Starcraft:BW. IMO, its hellish kinds of unfun and I personally won't be subjecting myself to it today. (Though when I was younger, I had the pretense that I could get good enough at it and/or respected through this skill).

Then sitting in Starcraft practice maps / UMS games to master each of these mouse-movements and finger-dexterity to be able to play at a competent level... nahhhhhh. Starcraft:BW is absolutely too much of a twitch-game, and too much strategy relies upon wonky micro-details that IMO, its a surprise that we ever called it a strategy game. Its closer to a mouse-driven fighting game, honestly.

If you fix this wonky movement, you simply don't have Starcraft: Brood War anymore. Its so fundamental to the meta, and the mechanic is fundamental to Muta-harassment, Dragoon Dancing, Psi Storm micro, etc. etc. that its literally the core element of combat.

----------------

That's the primary difference between Dragoons (SC:BW) and Stalkers (SC2). Stalkers are smooth and easy to move (and also have a bit of blink-micro).

Dragoons need the player to memorize the size of the magic-box to "Dragoon Dance" and effectively enter combat.

----------

I appreciate the engine-rewrite to SC2. There are *OTHER* problems Blizzard/Activision had that caused SC2 to collapse. But fixing the movement/magic boxing so that it was easier to have units move together and flock together is a *GOOD* thing.

But there needed to be more deathball mitigations. Too many games turned into boring deathballs.

The auto plants in ontario havent paid their employees in decades. This isn't new.

It goes back to 2003, the ontario liberals got into power and implemented manufacturing taxes against the autoplants. Ontario shed about 800,000 manufacturing jobs over this idiotic move.

But what ended up happening is 2 fold, they outsourced their assembly to live external plants. Avoiding these new taxes but also greatly reducing the number of employees needed for the main plant itself. So you are hiding the thousands of other workers.

The final major change is that the ontario government eventually had to come in and effectively give them all those taxes right back in subsidies. Why stay?

This is also why the Ontario Liberals basically dont exist anymore. They crushed Ontario pretty badly.

> In other words, if you tried to "do a communism", you'd either be carpet bombed (or more likely have a fascist coup funded against you) by the US, or you'd be made an offer you can't refuse by the Soviet Union. The inevitable outcome of this was that the only "communist experiments" that were able to grow in that era of history were ones that instantly aligned with the Soviet Union or that were sufficiently non-threatening and irrelevant to both sides (and thus likely never showed up on your radar).

This isn't true, and many communist countries were openly hostile to the USSR. Yugoslavia went it's own way, China split with the USSR and had a war, Albania sided with China against the USSR, the Khmer Rouge were hostile to the USSR, North Korea tried to position themselves between the USSR and China. Even many countries that were aligned with the USSR weren't controlled by them (for example, Vietnam and Laos).
Just a suggestion but they have 4bit quantified models that are even smaller and faster that the 8 bit.
Your average 13B 4bit model is only about 8-9gb of VRAM. Using this I bet you can get a much higher perimeter model on the 3090.
> And very achievable in tradfi.

And where would you have achieved 8% yields in a liquid instrument, prior to the recent Fed rate hikes? From the end of the GFC (and the start of QE) until when the current hiking cycle began, 8% was basically the cap of junk bond yields[0]. Half the time, it was under 6%.

Sure, you could probably have bought rental property or invested in a small business and come out above 8% yields, but those are highly illiquid and not comparable to deposits at FTX.

> Systemd on the other hand has most of the things I need, but I found it cumbersome to use

Could you please expand on this? From what I understand, to use systemd to deploy a microservice is basically one file:

# /etc/systemd/system/myservice.service

[Unit]
Description=My Microservice
After=network.target

[Service]
ExecStart=/path/to/myservice
Restart=always
User=myuser
Group=mygroup
Environment=VARIABLE=value
WorkingDirectory=/path/to/service/directory
StandardOutput=syslog
StandardError=syslog
SyslogIdentifier=myservice

[Install]
WantedBy=multi-user.target

Then, to "use" it:

# reload systemd
sudo systemctl daemon-reload
# start service
sudo systemctl start myservice
# enable service at boot
sudo systemctl enable myservice
# check status
sudo systemctl status myservice
# check logs
journalctl -u myservice

What more advanced stuff were you trying to do that you ran into that made systemd seem cumbersome?

LilyPond is much, much better suited toward writing music that doesn't exist yet and is changing as you invent it.

Because, as reikonomusha put it in the previous comment, "you can edit, insert, splice, overwrite, etc. to your heart's content in your favorite text editor", which makes the overwhelming difference. You don't see the notation as you're entering it, but you have a way to iterate on that.

However, it greatly helps if you're a developer or computer scientist, since you're working with a compiled markup language.

LilyPond isn't the answer for regular mortals.

LilyPond has sane playback. If the piece you've written is 3 bars long so far, and you play the MIDI file that pops out of the compile, you hear 3 bars and then it terminates.

MuseScore requires you to specify the number of bars before you compose and then gives you sheet full of that many empty bars. When you click play, it plays through all the notes you have composed so far ... and then doesn't stop! It goes through the empty bars. It's like the Forrest Gump of music programs. Run, MuseScore, run! If you put a double bar in its path, it doesn't get fooled: that's not the actual end of the file, so it blows right through it.
"Scalability" and "Single Board Computer" don't really belong in the same sentence. That said, today you can get a refurbished mini PC with a lot more power, for a lot less money than the higher end SBCs. But I didn't see any info on how portable this project is to other hardware.
Nice. Could you share a Git repo with the result React app?
Which is why this is illegal in a lot of jurisdictions (if you can see outside of your own yard).
> Would we really call this "informed consent"?

I would. It isn't at all hidden. It is presented front-and-center in the terms page, right after the introductory paragraphs.

This isn't like IMDB when content which had been given over to public domain, hosted on shared/donated resources for the first half of the 90s, suddenly had IMDB Inc.'s copyright notices all over it.

> contributors either haven't read the licence agreement or have read it but haven't properly understand what it actually means?

That might be a valid arguement for complex clauses hidden deep within pages of legalise, especially in the past when we were all a lot more naive about IP issues, but to miss this (or just not bother checking) in today's world you need to be wilfully ignorant rather than just unaware.

> Kind of like one way sharing? You give, they take?

Sharing with the public via CC0, with them as a middleman. They aren't claiming ownership of anything, they aren't restricting other distribution of what the user has submitted, they aren't hoovering up stuff published elsewhere to power/train a commercial AI.

There are a few things I think might be valid to take issue with¹², the use of CC0 for provided content that you can just not provide if you disagree is not one of them IMO.

--

[1] “We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to modify or replace these Terms at any time.” is rather far reaching, though pretty standard and can't affect the license of the user provided content.

[2] “By accessing … the Service you agree to be bound by these Terms.” - just reading a page, or even just loading a page, should not be considered an act of consent in that manner IMO, and is likely not legally enforceable in most places.

It really seems that crisis response is bimodal. Either you almost completely panic, or you're almost completely focused. Complete focus makes for very clear, focused communication. (Extensive training on procedures, communication, and not panicking certainly helps as well.)
Hello dreamworld, Google and Microsoft output more Java code per day that you can ever imagine.

Microsoft is again a Java vendor, which I mentioned, and you failed to read.

Android is not Java TM, it still Java the language, and depends on Java the ecosystem.

Server side code regardless of the language is written in Java powered IDEs, that many devs gladly pay money for.
It might be hard to swallow but: there can never be real progress on the frontend without having a programming language that is powerful enough to properly support the developer.

Programming languages are always laughed upon and most of the time I hear frontend developers telling me that frameworks are what's important, not the language. But I think typescript shows how impactful a better programming language can be.

Unfortunately, even typescript - despite of how great of a language it is - isn't capable yet to support even basic cases.

For instance, using the features of the language to describe a nested structure of components, each of which has different dependencies that are a subset of its parents dependencies. Such a thing cannot be expressed with typescript, so frameworks/libraries all come up with their own way of doing that and in consequence giving up on typesafety and hence making it way harder to understand things and way easier to make subtle mistakes.

I hope we will see major improvements on that front eventually. However, powerful programming languages are hard to learn and take time to master - something that is often doomed to not survive in the frontend world where things are fast-paced.
gnome-bluetooth is only a GUI, the backend is BlueZ stack. Even if GUI part stops working the second it becomes unmaintained (which is not the case), the backend will continue to work, and you can choose any other frontend you like - see https://wiki.archlinux.org/title/bluetooth .

I'm sorry, but it doesn't matter that you're paying for other services, or your taxes, or for your groceries. If you're using that particular service for free in a manner that's not intended, and you justify it by saying that you don't like the way they run things... then that's a questionable moral position, and not a compelling argument.

I'm not a big fan of everything YouTube does either, but this stance of yours bothers me, too.

> I have a big problem when someone deliberately and needlesly cripples a product just so they can sell you a solution to the (unnecessary) problem they artificially created

The whole of YouTube is artificially created. It wouldn't be there without the people who run it, and they get to decide how they want to monetize. You can take it or leave it, or say "screw your rules, I'm using this anyway". Just realize that this is not necessarily read as some form of rebellion against the man or whatever, but instead as a neat excuse to help yourself to some free content.

The content on YouTube you're watching also would not exist without the people who create it. It would be nice if you gave back to at least some of them, somehow, in a way that's independent from YouTube. That would be a more interesting and constructive position to take.

You're right! how dare they not know everything that you know.... it's insane that someone might not do everything exactly the way you think it should be done!

I get that's not what you're trying to say, but all you're doing is blaming humans for ignorance, or making mistakes. I'd assert, that given you clearly understand both security, and best practices, you'd be better equipped to help offer solutions instead of accusations, or blame.
It’s 100% the point. It’s such a common and accepted thing here that most sites just have “S & H” during the check out process. To advertise free shipping in the US implies the S&H is free. To suddenly spring a “handling” fee at the last step is deceitful and no different than airlines or hotels advertising a price and then adding a “resort fee” on the last step. And if you think differently, then why do they hide the handling fee until the very last step?

The article being reported on does not make this conclusion. The study authors are interested only in the time it takes for (human) users to complete CAPTCHAs, and did not examine the speed at which bots solve them.

The fact that bots can solve them -- and solve them fast -- is apparently a well-established fact in the literature. There is a table in the article comparing its (human) participants' solve times to a number of previous studies which examined how fast/accurate bots can be.

The Register (and the New Scientist, which most of this is cribbed from) is looking for a headline, so whatever. But the study's authors say that the "surprising" part is that "solving time and user perception are not always correlated" for human users. Game-based CAPTCHAs with sliders may take longer, but the users in the study still enjoyed them more than image-selection-based ones.

> Why are these numbers so different from the original FEC complaint?

Because CREW is a non-governmental organization, and as such, can't get things like a search warrant. They've no more power than you or I to dig into his internal communications and finances. Their complaint is based on publicly available information prior to SBF's arrest.

Anyone can file a FEC complaint. I can file one against you claiming you donated $500M to the lizard people controlling Queen Elizabeth II's reanimated corpse. It has no evidentiary value.

The government claims they have seized evidence that he secretly was directing tens of millions of dollars to Republican causes via Salame as a straw donor.
The implication you're making is that the result is essentially unknowable and also implies your opinion on this is spurious: We might as well equally assume the judge is biased against legislators and is eager to claw back the donations.

The way the judge’s biases lie and how they might affect their decisions is essentially a random unknowable variable, unless you have good information on this particular judge to support your claim.

> Yes, using a ternary operator in JSX to conditionally render components/values looks a bit ugly, but nothing is stopping you from making a wrapper component like:

Couldn't you put that in a function that returns the correct JSX element or am I misunderstanding the problem? Something like:

renderThing(number) {
if(number > 0) return <div>...</div>
return <div>...</div>
}

const Page = () => {
return <div>{renderThing(someNumber)}</div>
}

Simple ternaries are fine IMO but thats what I do when the logic gets complicated. I never used a nested ternary in that situation, for example.
