> It's the guest additions ISO thingy that's not open source.

No, it's the extension pack that is closed source and under a non-GPL license. The guest additions ISO is commonly confused with the extension pack, but they have completely different spheres of influence and functionality. Guest additions is GPLv2, just as the main app is.

Same for me. Lately my feed is full of Formula One and Debbie Harris of Blondie fame, neither of which is an actual interest of mine. And basically no content from people I care about.

Feds only impose a floor. Higher cost states are always welcome to enact higher standards, and they do. Washington’s minimum exempt salary is $65.5k, and California is $65k, plus California requires overtime after 8 hours per day.

Note that the Feds have not even actually increased it yet, it is just proposed and even if it goes into effect, it will probably be 2024 or maybe even later.
Fair enough, but that is just ebooks. Isn't goodreads also useful for dead tree readers? Although I guess the bibliophiles on goodreads are more likely to have an ebook reader.

Interesting PR move by the Canadian government.
Yes there is. In practice, many jobs have considerable fixed overheads to both employer and employee to you can't be hired for say under 10 hours a week.

For instance, when I had a nanny, absent OT laws, optimal hours for both parties were 45/week. OT laws shifted my preference to 40. There is no 5 hour a week job my nanny could get given fixed overhead.
You don't have to guess. There's an ordering of your names on your ID.

Use that. I'd be surprised if if is different to the one used by your country's revenue service.

If the taxman in your country both knows who you are and has a name for you, that's the correct name, regardless of whether unspoken rules about given/family/calling names exist or not.
Yes and no. A simulation can test your model, which you then compare with empirical results to validate both the model and the simulation of it. When those results do not match, you have to figure out if your simulation is wrong or the model is wrong. The model said that O28 would be doubly magic and thus stable, and yet when they managed to make it, it was exceptionally short lived. As a result the model they have is missing something.

On the plus side, now that they have an empirical result, they can tweak the model such that it continues to accurately describe what it currently describes, and describes a short lived O28. Once they have those tweaks, they can find another experiment to see if their updated model accurately predicts what the experiment would produce. If it does, they gain more confidence in the model, if it does not, they go back to tweaking the model.

This is the essential core of scientific research, for science to be believable it needs to predict things that will happen given conditions, and then experimentalists establish those conditions and look for confirmation of the prediction. It is the only way to know if what we think we know is in fact worth knowing!
even the ones that did have cultural relevance (like game of thrones or house of cards) have been pretty well "culturally liquidated" at this point. ain't nobody going back for a rewatch of game of thrones, or at least not past about season 5.

it's funny, a couple years before the show was finished (during the first time when they stalled out for a year) my sister gave me a box set of the blu-rays, at first I was a little bummed because I'd inevitably end up with a couple mismatched DVDs/not in the box set, but it turns out that stallout was also the point where the show started imploding.

I like to joke that after she gave me the set they never finished the show, haha what are the odds!? /s

Because one side of the aisle proposed solutions for COVID like ivermectin, or "inject bleach," and said things like "it'll blow over by March" and "if we stop measuring the numbers will go down."

Both sides might have said incorrect things about COVID, but only one was responsible for politicizing it to death, and it's the side that tried to pretend it didn't exist while it was massacring Americans.
It looks great! I joined.
The thing that these systems offer is "having to check less code". In some situations, that's huge. In others, it's not worth the effort it takes to get there and maybe doesn't actually reduce the complexity of checking that it all makes sense.

In other words, maybe you proved something beyond reasonable doubt, but that's completely useless if you misunderstand what it was that you proved.
As the article pointed out, the vast majority of the lines of code in the driver are autogenerated header files for things like defining hardware registers. There's not much complexity or logic in that type of code.

Probably if AMD wanted to spend the time, they could compress it down to a fraction of it's current size.
You care to namedrop them? I have never experienced this, but maybe that is because I am too late to the party each time to realize.
Why should there be a ceiling on this at all? Just because someone makes more money does not mean it should be acceptable to abuse their time in the workplace. Most people earn high incomes, not because they signed up to meet arbitrary demands, but because they invested in education and training, and/or agreed to take on a high level of responsibility.
Couldn't people enter whatever is the equivalent of the nominative gendered singular form of the full name if they cared?
Everyone is waiting on an alternative; Threads has basically not had any features rolled out since it launched. Still no trends, web interface, DMs, etc. Don't really know why they even bothered rolling it out at all if they weren't going to have those features out quickly.
You have this backward.

So imagine you have a simulation, and you get an answer out. Yay.

How do you know it is correct? You don't. You must compare against reality. Reality always wins.

This is not a "single atom," you might as well say "a single person." Each one of those protons is composed of two up quarks and one down quark. Each one of the neutrons is composed of two down quarks and one up quark. Each nucleon is therefore three quarks, held together by the exchange of virtual quarks. The nucleons themselves interact via a stepped-down approximation of that called the strong nuclear force. And you're not allowed to forget the electromagnetic force, either. And then there's self-interaction ...

There's a lot going inside of a nucleus.

Simulations are only useful for testing your models.
Because "tackling a problem" is about the approach. That's how the phrase is commonly understood. The Webster's reference is just backup.

Dictionary.com provides "Make determined efforts to deal with (a problem or difficult task)." As the first verb form, before the football/rugby definition.

Further, the hn guidelines suggest that even if there was more ambiguity, we should presume the strongest interpretation.
While i haven't tried it, there is code that sets it to mode 0x13 [0][1] so it would be VGA.

Don't get me wrong, I agree with a good bit of what she says, but she lost me a bit with whole sections on "Only for the government" and "Don't conflate legal with morally correct".

There's no consensus that people should lose their job because they say something questionable, except by liberal lawyers who would fight for your right to burn a flag or disparage someone on their right, but will suddenly clam up when one of their political opponents does something they find "morally reprehensible". Who decides what's "moral"? The extremes are easy to see - but what about someone who doesn't want to go along with someone's pronouns? Should they be fined? Should they lose their jobs?

But we won against the Iraqi insurgence and ISIS. We probably would've beaten the Taliban too but JB personally hated being there, so here we are.
The other comments explain this better than I could.

In short:

I can post the same message on Twitter and Mastodon and get a thoughtful comment on the latter vs. no engagement/shitpost on the former.

Twitter feels like a bunch of angry people screaming into the void, whereas Mastodon is like screaming in a small cave filled with friendly weirdos. I like that. Eventually you lower your voice and start chatting.
Logstash is terrible, i've had so many problems with it.
A few potentially false assumptions. The (very real) possibility of being wrong exists, but declaring that because of it nobody ever—or you specifically—can be right seems overkill and contradictory to the ethos of the engineering profession and the approach it uses for its chosen range of problems.

(I have the vague impression that people who talk along these lines usually think that being wrong is somehow a bad thing, or at least that even if they personally don’t others do and those others need to be accomodated.

Of course, while being wrong might not be pleasant, it’s absolutely necessary, and the harder the problem is the more times you’ll need to be wrong before you solve it. Thus shaming people for being wrong, especially in an educational setting, is one of the very small number of things that make me genuinely furious. Not telling people they’re wrong when [you think] they are because you think they might feel shame because of it is... not as bad, but still feels seriously counterproductive. I can’t say I have a grip on how to train or at least help others out of that shame, though.

Is your motivation different here? Because, I don’t know, you seem to say that telling others they’re wrong [about an engineering problem] always [or often] constitutes arrogance, and that is such an extrodinarily extreme position from where I’m standing that I can’t convincingly model it.)
>There’s also issues with open trading of black mass, which some countries, including in Europe, classify as hazardous. That’s a key concern in terms of packaging, transporting and trading it, said Leah Chen, analyst at S&P Global Commodity Insights.

>"We’ve got lots of factories in Europe where we can shred batteries to make black mass but then it’s kind of stuck,” said Julia Harty, London-based analyst at Fastmarkets. "It’s a shame, as there’s so much attention on sustainability at the moment but yet the red tape makes lithium-ion battery recycling harder in Europe.”

Sadly this is the norm in western countries
I think there’s an assumption that the “unit” of simulation is much smaller than the oxygen atom, allowing these “emergent” behaviors to arise.
Nope, I had no real thoughts, just parameters

- Wireless if at all possible. Really almost a must, as I can't run the wires in the wall

- Airplay 2 support would be ideal, since I use an Apple TV and have many Apple devices this would be a nice to have, but not required strictly

- I do prefer a 7.1 setup over 5.1

- Dolby Atmos would be great
It’s so disheartening that you can have this much of a laser focused understanding of what you’re looking for and not be able to find it.
I cited an old source to make it clearer that this is not a new sense, and that its entry into English probably had nothing to do with American Football, which existed in 1913 but was still far from being the sport of the US.

I’d have cited the OED instead, if I had access. I bet it’s got examples of this usage dating back to 1500 or something. It’s simply a sense of the word, now, hardly even figurative at all (as “grapple” barely is, in some similar senses, now)
If I recall from the algo weighting dump they did last year, Elon is hard-coded to be basically the absolute most important thing to the sorting algo with a pretty long decay time. When he posts, it's effectively guaranteed to be in all Twitter users' feeds, and that's how he wants it.

Then again, I don't know first-hand; I quit Twitter many months before it got this version of Billionaire Buffoonery as an owner.
I've got a quote in front of me right now for a ~1 TB data recorder for just shy of $4 million.

Their numbers are off, but their overall point is solid:

Many people who complain about how expensive everything is are spending money objectively pretty recklessly. They can't get ahead because they also cannot sacrifice.

Nah, POSIWID.

My information comes from installers and dealers of used panels.

The rate of solar panel replacement is extremely low. Very few people replace their panels. Modern panels also don't degrade very quickly, often warrantied for less than 0.5%/year. Most people who do replacements are the much smaller number of early adopters.

These are just facts. The supposed "avalanche" of old panels has not appeared. In other words if you compare # of panels produced per year to # of panels being thrown away it is more favorable than most products. Not that any of the articles you posted even make an attempt to run those numbers.

I stand by my point: both solar panels and batteries have been steadily improving year after year. They last longer than people think and are not creating a tide of waste as the nay-sayers keep predicting in order to squash these technologies to promote burning fossil fuels.

The net effects are likely lower household income across the board as this law systemically harms productivity. For instance, constraing childcare hours constrain parent work hours, etc.

NVIDIA GPU Linux kernel modules must be self-signed to work with SecureBoot enabled; they must be self-signed every time they're updated by an akmod package upgrade.

So, it is necessary to remove the MS SecureBoot ~CApubkey and add the OS and local ~CApubkeys to the SecureBoot cert list with BIOS, and re-sign every module install|&build in order to work with NVIDIA (and probably also AMD?) in containers.

It's necessary and a fair expectation that users will continue to be able to remove and add x86-64 SecureBoot bootloader signing keys.

I don’t think it has to be that deep. The world is a big place, full of many cultures that operate - especially with giving criticism - very differently. You don’t need to master the tone of every culture, but it’s important to at least be cognisant that even these difference exist.
Banking and social posting are at odds with one another, at least in countries where people feel they can express themselves unreservedly. In China it works as people are conditioned not to do that.

Unless he aims for influencer branding and consumption of curated content [1] and not the free expression of unpopular opinion, then it's a very cold and one dimensional target market. It's the opposite of what Twitter once was - brief musings thrown into the wind. Instead, people will consciously and deliberately pander to an audience for subs, views, and income. It'll no-longer be a platform for casual, jokey, sarcastic fluff, or raw, honest, and radical perspectives.

Paradox of tolerance in the actual book draws the limit at being tolerant of violence. It does not in any way endorse becoming an authoritarian state and removing rights under the guise of heading off possible intolerance. There is a redditism of linking the Wikipedia page but ironically the actual book argues the complete opposite side as you are currently.
That has not matched my personal experience so I'm going to say you are wrong.

Projects without a CLA can't be relicensed unless every contributor to the project agrees to do so. So if a project without a CLA has many contributors to it, you do have some reasonable assurance that its license cannot change (legally), because it would be impractical to do so.
Yes, it is impossible. Something a lot of zoomers/millennials unfortunately never learned: you can't have it all. Sorry. Pick what's most important to you and sacrifice the rest.
Depends on the resolution, compression and quality level you expect. I'm generally fine with 1080p as I don't notice the difference to 4k that much, also am generally fine with h.265 at decent compression and prefer the way it degrades (blurry background) over most others like h.264 (weird blocky background). But YMMV, my vision is not the best by any stretch, and when I was younger I'd probably notice a lot more.

In this, I'll often go for movies that are <4gb and TV episodes that are under 500mb in size. I do pay for several streaming options, but often still find it easier to just hit the high seas for content. For example, Paramount+ doesn't work with my pihole, and I didn't feel like figuring out what domains they'd require me to whitelist.

Edit: I had setup a relatively large NAS as I was wanting to get into Chia when it came out... that said, the first few days it became obvious I would never get a coin compared to the really big minors, so now I have a 6-drive and 5-drive raid6 array with 12tb drives. So I'm set on storage for a long while. And the Synology box supports another 5-drive expansion case to grow with. I maxed the ram, and added the 10G network card.

When you publicly proclaim yourself the "World's Supermarket," scalability arguments fall flat. If you conduct twelve figures' worth of business per annum, you can afford to answer your phone.
You're likely right about that. I'm often a bit gobsmacked of late how expensive housing has got in places where it shouldn't be.
To me, the text you quoted is a separate issue/topic.

If a manager is that horrible, then it's time to give negative feedback to THEIR manager. Just like I don't ask before I send a Slack message to someone about a work-related topic, I also don't ask before I send HR-related praise.
During the pandemic, when money was cheap, the game is to invest in growth. Why? Because if you don't get there before the other company does with the cheap money, you potentially lose out on future revenue.

Money dries up and now the game is to survive, so layoffs begin. However that doesn't mean that projects that are profitable aren't in need of developers. The market rate forces higher pay, but you actually need to make a product that sells, which requires people that know what they are doing, which was a challenge even before the pandemic.
Giving up comforts of home is not easy and there has to be a 2X improvement in QoL for the move to be justified. And I’m not sure there is any improvement in QoL honestly. You get some you lose some. It’s more or less an even trade at this point.

Why are you telling your colleagues you "really liked" how they did something when you feel the need to call them out for "doing bad work"? It comes off as cynical backstabbing.
They actually don’t even care if it’s illegal.

Businesses straight up killed a reporter with a car bomb a few years back. They don’t give a fuck.

How many companies blatantly break the law only to pull some accounting magic to entirely avoid consequences (Canada oil is legally required to clean up their mess, but never do. It always falls to the taxpayer with zero business consequence).

How many times to they break the law, only to get a small slap on the wrist while running away with billions in profit?

Companies don’t give a shit if something is illegal.
Don't care what Google thinks, only what a court thinks, and the courts should be protecting me from these scoundrels.
Not sure if you saw the edit, but I live in what is traditionally considered a Tier 2 city (Portland area) by most (all?) accounts.

I face prices that are more appropriate for a Tier 1 city, and constraints more appropriate for a Tier 1 city, without the adjustments to wages of a Tier 1 city. This isn't wholly unique to Portland either.

Some of this is policy, some of this is locality, some of it is state quirks, but generally speaking, policy does not reflect reality no matter where you look
