Have the 3D printers that are affordable and available enough for regular people advanced in their material capabilities much? The inability to print high strength materials like high impact polycarbonate or metal was what made early 3D printers mostly a novelty for me. I didn't think that had changed; however, I could very well be wrong.
Democracy (as in will of the people) doesn’t really exist during wars on domestic soil. Martial Law declarations are at least the honest admission of that.

And the democracy / republic pedantry is tiresome. We are a Democratic Republic (and also a Constitutional Republic). They are not mutually exclusive.
We're building a 3D game development environment that uses an enhanced version of Logo. It has 'spaces' that start out simple and get more complex.

You’re completely right. I somehow got my wires crossed as to what was possible to compute and the running time.
It's so terrible that we've been using it for more than 20 years for a 600kloc cross-platform digital audio workstation.

It's so terrible that it's FLOSS-iness encouraged us to fix problems with the macOS (then OS X) and windows aspects, and contribute them back (mostly) to the project.

It's so terrible that when I meet other developers we swap stories about their chosen cross-platform GUI toolkit, and things seem to pretty much even out.
No it’s not. The truth of each is completely unrelated to the other.
In order to use those things, you have to write annotations.

With Nima, you just write the code to do the thing.

It's a huge difference.

If you have the wisdom to see how toxic annotation-driven programming in Java is, you will like Nima.

Helidon Nima is more comparable to building services in golang. It's more like Vert.x but with a serial API.

>RE is a WAY bigger class than what the verifier can compute alone

I always think of the RE(CE) sets as those that are possible to compute. I’m aware that RE sets are not computable, but since RE sets are those accepted by a turing machine, I still consider that set to be the “main” one when speaking informally. Maybe this is misguided

GTK relies on the Glib event loop, which is in a separate library (and also used by Qt, at least optionally).

You can, if you want to, reimplement the abstract API of the Glib event loop, and use that with GTK instead.

Note also that on macOS, GTK has to integrate both the Glib event loop and the event loop used by NeXTStep/Cocoa, because it is not always the case that the same one is in control (e.g. during drag-n-drop processing). It handles this "just fine", for some definition of "just fine".
I actually don't consider that a major gripe. It's certainly a very weird decision and I'd prefer the original version, but it doesn't ultimately affect all that much imo, it mostly just means the humans did a bit less orc killing in the movies than they had to do in the books.

But yeah, I agree with you, I'm happy it turned out as it did for the most part, some of my favorite movies for sure.
It’s possible that certain “normal” things have become unaffordable for the middle class, but easy credit is temporarily hiding the new reality.

If that’s the case, we might be giving a lot of credit to subprime borrowers at the moment. Increased delinquency and default rates seem to also point in this direction.

I find new music on FM radio. It's free, it's curated, and I can then buy songs to add to my playlists.

The fact people pay money for something already being beamed to their house for free sometimes astounds me.
It's over applied in almost every professional context. I've watched entire codebases go from reasonably tolerable OOP to FP and the subsequent fallout. Usually, it's because some unhinged programmer starts adding stuff they like to a language it doesn't fit with. Then, you bring new developers on and no one wants to wade through the several layers of map/flatten/reduce/etc. Worse, the bolted-on FP is not optimized well by the compiler leading to worse than usual benchmarks. It's almost always a lose-lose except when it's done with a functional-first language.

It has it's purpose. It's almost universally over-applied owing to the cargo cult and holier-than-thou attitude of a lot of functional programmers. I see it happen in Python where comprehensions are often replaced with maps. While it is nice, the comprehension is more idiomatic and far more widely understood.

This is not unusual -- it may take you years to get traction but you just need to keep with it and keep evolving until you do. But this means that making a game is more of a side-project than a full-time job (unless you're independently wealthy!)
Short of locking the doors, what can be done to prevent criminal flash mobs?
See my other comment, it probably wasn't the owner. A guy rents a workshop in the bottom level and had evacuated to the Millikins' house. It was probably him who was interviewed at the time and did the watering.
> And the democracy / republic pedantry is tiresome. We are a Democratic Republic

We’re a functionally plutocratic federal republic with some very loosely representative-democratic elements. Ironically, as a result of federal rules imposed on the states but not on the federal government itself, like one-person, one-vote, the states, while still more than a little plutocratic in practice, do a better job of approximating representative democracy in their formal structures (and many also have elements of direct democracy.)

In 2000 I worked as enumerator for the Census Bureau which paid $13 and change an hour.

The hiring process was: they had us gather in a room at the local employment center and take a short I.Q. test. They worked down the list from the top when calling people to offer them a job. They called me up one day to offer me a supervisor job that was just $2 an hour more and seemed almost certain to involved paid overtime. I turned it down.

I was called a few days later and offered a normal job which I took.

My supervisor was the the head of security at the local Wegmans supermarket which I found endlessly amusing because I'd been engaged in a cold war with this guy ever since I noticed he was following around a hippie friend of mine who I think today is even more schizotypal than I am.

Every time I went to Wegmans I would look out for this guy and stand in the spots where he liked to stand to surveil the crowd and I would conspicuously follow him around when he'd follow other people around. (I had just burned out of a postdoc in theoretical physics and had a particularly negative view of the world at this time.)

I got along with him great as a supervisor and came to really appreciate him though. And I really appreciated the rest of my coworkers: across a wide range of experiences we were a crew of above-average intelligence people who were open to temporary employment in April of 2000. There was that time a woman in a meeting said she could buy $25 of worth of stickers that would save us 20 hours of time, the supervisor said there was no process to requisition the stickers, I said she could just add another 2 hours to her timecard and they'd be nothing wrong with that and everybody agreed.

It was a lot of fun but we had our share of screw-ups. We had a plan to count homeless people that seemed to make sense and you think it would work but we couldn't find a single one despite that fact that, as a civilian not wearing my enumerator badge, I would talk to people who "lived outside" almost every day.

At Cornell University we had a low response rate from the Uujuma Residential College which was an African American Living Center as compared to other living centers that were packed with Asians on North Campus. We were supposed to show up in person to get people to fill out their forms, but the bursar's office sent us a printout of the roster from their 390 mainframe on fanfold paper with green and white stripes and no field for "race", so I know we undercounted Blacks!
You need to build an audience for the game, but that often takes far more time than the runway available. If you're lucky, the zeitgeist will notice you before you go broke. But most aren't lucky.
IntelliJ doesn’t have support for Java 21 syntax features, right? I tried running a dev build, but I couldn’t get it to work.
Layer 7 gear has been around for a long time. At an ISP level I’d be shocked if they weren’t running big F5s or something similar that can handle this properly. Actually do so is another matter entirely though, and I’m not even considering throughput.

PART 2: A PAINSTAKING RENOVATION

Millikin and his wife, Dora Millikin, fell in love with the Front Street house several years ago...

Wow. This kind of narrative cliffhanger makes sense in a thriller. It does not make sense in an article on how to prevent houses from burning down. I'm not going to blame the author, since this is more of a cultural and institutional problem, but this article reads like a caricature.
I also have my doubts as to design.

But Runciman's an interesting and thoughtful commentator on politics, political philosophy, and the history of both. I'd discovered his several podcasts ("Talking Politics", "Talking Politics: The History of Ideas", and his current project, "Past, Present, Future", in the past year or so, and they are consistently excellent.

I'm among that group of people who puts forward ideas (my own or others) not because they're necessarily true but rather that they're interesting (though I try to note that distinction, I may not have been sufficiently clear here).

And I don't think Runciman is ascribing malice to the situation. More a noting of a characteristic.

Particularly in long-standing human institutions and/or systems, I myself tend more toward an evolved-systems viewpoint: it's not that these systems were designed in a specific way, but that systems that are durable, persistent, and successful tend to have certain characteristics. In that sense, I suspect Runciman is excessively teleological here. But that still leaves the observation that democratic electoral systems which diminish the political power of the poor, uneducated, and young, appear to have a fitness advantage.

Which remains an interesting observation.

I'm not sure I'm following your GC comparison. Could you clarify that?

As to political intent and outcome: the problem as I see it are local optima which produce negative outcomes. Nash equilibria, prisoners' dilemma, collective action problems, tragedy of the commons, etc.
It's not an accident that the cops don't stop this...crime grows wherever law enforcement stops, and they's been playing this game for hundreds of years.
I have Dark Reader and had no issues.

There's a global setting in Dark Reader to "Detect dark theme" pages -- when that is enabled, this game is automatically detected as using a dark theme so the Dark Reader plugin is disabled for the page.

I just served on a jury for a that made extensive use of Cellbrite, Greykey and cell tower triangulation. It was crazy how routine this is on law enforcement, and how much they got from an iPhone. (Everything). Case has now completed but it completed because of that evidence.
I think words are a sort of Huffman encoding of information. I can definitely use a sentence to describe something, but you do that enough and it's just nicer to have a word for it.
> The BTRFS raid1 feature is very badly named,

You're going to have to support that claim a bit better. The core idea of RAID 1 is mirroring data, which BTRFS RAID 1 mode definitely does. Striping is not an essential part of RAID 1 (hence RAID 10), and reading data from two disks in parallel is an optional performance optimization that is not performed by all RAID 1 implementations (but could be implemented for BTRFS RAID 1: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/55408256/btrfs-raid-1-wh... ).

> Plus with mismatched drives, smaller drives go unused unless you write enough data.

Yes, the allocation is suboptimal from a performance perspective, as I've already said. But it is simple and straightforward and reasonably good at avoiding putting you into a situation where manually issuing a rebalance command is necessary. If you do need better performance, there's a RAID 10 mode. But since my NAS is currently a motley pile of SSDs, I don't need to to anything extra to have decent performance.
Most of the music I like doesn't get played on any local FM station - not to mention the constant advertising on radio.
Air quality monitoring is definitely the future.

In home and all over every city.

They really should be in every K-12 school and college university on a public open network.

PurpleAir's network is the best we have right now because the federal airnow network is absolutely terrible with too few sensors.

Hopefully AirGradient can build their public network, I've suggested before they try to get integrated with the WeatherSTEM network which has everything but air quality nationally.

Most indie games don't have the advertising budget of the studios and can't afford digital advertising campaigns and so they have to rely on organic discovery via blogs, youtube and word of mouth.

But whether something is going to catch fire or not is often the domain of voodoo witches. The person who can figure out how to make the right game at the right time consistently will be rich, the one who doesn't will not.

What exactly is over-engineered about it? A lot of the seeming complexity is due to solving things that completing systems didn't even try to tackle or did so incompletely.

There are hundreds of apps on Flathub that already use GTK 4. Bottles, Easy Effects, Mission Center, Amberol, Celluloid, are all popular (more than 60,000 installs from Flathub) examples of apps that are using GTK 4. I personally use all of them and think they are some of the best looking apps available on Linux.

The first movie adaptation of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory was quite good, nonetheless they're already working on a 3rd.
Alas, the show was not canceled during broadcast live, on air.

It was a pre-recorded program.

Some interesting ideas in using the camera: a dialogue, two actors, taking turns. One speaks, and then the camera zooms in on that actor’s face as they turn and stare into the camera, the screen splits into four quarters to reveal the two actors, still in conversation. The camera zooms into a tight close up of the second actor’s face, and another quadrant continues the conversation…

Other techniques of sort of a video rotoscoping, actors popping into the frame as if by magic, then disappearing, or strange speed changes used to comedic effect.

Or such was the intention. I found it neither particularly funny, or indeed watchable, for more than the first fifteen minutes. Which is indeed how long the series run lasted.

But the blip-vert, rapid succession of one gag after another, with no logic or break between segments, some which are just the quick one-liner joke: it’s different.

It’s Video Vaudeville.

In what mature organization takes it more than a week? My current org is quite mature: You probably use it. It's also not a cloud provider: Our aws bill is in the high 8 figures a month. And yet launching a new service not directly pingable from the internet, and deployed in, say, 5 regions, is a matter of 3 PRs, adding the service to CI included. I've gone from having no repo at all to deployment in 4 days, because we were in a big hurry. All the infra-defining PRs will get eyes from an SRE or three, but the team that is writing the service is writing the PRs.

I bet we have far more instances under our name than the people that write this article, and yet we have nowhere near that level of complexity in our IaC definitions. And yet, somehow we manage. I guess we are immature?

Crime is down, overall. I don't think we should make laws or changes based on the rare event like this.

But the real prevention is "make living your life possible for everyone". People whose needs are met don't generally go on risky crime sprees like this.

Make housing, healthcare, and food affordable. Give childcare, support education. Crime will plummet.
Organized shoplifting has long been a problem.

My mom sold men's clothing at Macy's in the sleepy city of Manchester, NH and (circa 1990) one day after she left a whole family came in and the father distracted the sales clerk while mom and the kids cleaned out a few rows of suits. The security guard came running but they were already gone when the clerk realized what happened.

She talked frequently with the security guards about the problems they faced: one was run over by a car by an escaping shoplifter. They weren't allowed to fight back under any circumstance because Macy's could be sued by anyone who was attacked by a security guard.

This book

https://www.ojp.gov/ncjrs/virtual-library/abstracts/black-ma...

has an excellent description of an organized shoplifting network in New York City in the 1970s that would sometimes steal goods from delivery trucks behind shops and then fence them at stores in Harlem. (It's a great book, it has descriptions of street life and police corruption that are right out of KRS-One's albums like Criminally Minded.)
