That's still not open source. Try cloning their repo and making it public.
Your remarks make sense, but it's only going to be boats and planes if the war stays contained around Taiwan.

India and China have been waiting ~60 years for a rematch, so there is the distinct possibility of a second front on land. North Korea could also try and attack South Korea for a variety of reasons (either as a distraction for China or taking advantage of the distraction), which could open yet another front. And these are the easy ones – if there is a big showdown, it could domino in a number of directions, each of which would justify the US maintaining a stockpile of ammo.

And of course, land and sea warfare share some of the same missiles.
That doesn't pay the bills. Cases of profitable open source projects are very scarce and difficult to achieve.

>>>>>>>> Because our foreign policy is run by utter amoral hypocrites and liars.

No. Don't assume malice where ineptitude will be sufficient.

Our Foreign Policy is run by armchair, master-degree wannabe-generals in suits and ties, some dark triad, some not, but always away from real bullets, to instead being preoccupied with their own advancement, protecting their friends, and increasing the size of their portfolio, justifying their grand aims with real (or imagined) claims of good intentions
> so they have tons of lawyers on retainer to prevent anyone from actually publishing Fables but them

That's not going to be a long court case regardless of how many lawyers they throw at it, since they would have been unable to produce anything showing that they owned the IP that you are allegedly infringing - because they simply didn't own the IP.

This was true before Willingham pulled this stunt. They never owned it, he did. The only one who could have sued would have been Willingham himself.

With this recent event technically everyone owns it (they too), but bringing that up won't help them at all.

Trademarks: I don't think they should have any, given that you can't trademark something you don't own. Searching trademark databases didn't yield anything.
Personally I don't care much about adding the free to watch content with ads or anything related to linear tv, but that's just my personal opinion. They didn't touch the personal media collection use case in a negative way, so for me nothing changed.
> The US is in a death-spiral. Look around you. Is this the way things were back in 2000?

I think society was more cohesive in 2000. Multiculturalism, globalism, and technological changes (example: the filter bubble) have eroded cohesion not only in the US, but also in other populous, ethnically diverse societies.

Yet, I think this “death spiral” take is a touch dramatic. Our short history is lined with one constitutional crisis after another.
I think part of the problem is that we all spend so much time online, where we are anonymous and mostly unaccountable. People understandably tend to become hyper-sensitive after years of online discussion, which makes even in-person discussion tough.

I’m honestly amazed that we’ve managed to make so much progress on these issues over the last 15 years. Remember, in 2008 Barack Obama couldn’t even support gay marriage. I don’t know how exactly we’ve done it, but I hope we keep it going.
> Discussions on improving git

I'm advocating for a replacement...and why it's so difficult.

Code development is no longer distributed. It's centralized in Github/Gitlab for about 99% of cases. And everyone is always connected in real-time to a central server...and also to all other contributors.

These possibilities are so far from the reality of when Git was created.

There is no such thing as a guarantee in this world. Whatever they do, there is always danger Russia will attack again. The most they can do is to make this decision as hard as possible and the consequences for Russia as heavy as possible. But you can't ensure anything.
I'd say the biggest problem, both during Elizabeth's reign and beyond, is the fact that the royal family can still influence actual laws as they're being made, for example: https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2021/feb/08/royals-vette...

But this story is very significant, the revelation of just how far news organisations bend over backwards to allow the royal family control over the coverage, as while we maybe don't need to care a huge amount about how the coronation itself was covered it does matter a great deal more to think about the fact that similar control will limit the press from covering more important topics relating to them.
> The key insight on why giant linear functions are often more readable (and desirable) is because they allow you to keep more concepts/relationships simultaneously together as a single chunk without context switching which seems to aid our comprehension.

The problem with giant linear functions is that those concepts get separated by sometimes thousands of lines. Separating out the high-level concepts vs the nitty-gritty details, putting the latter in functions that then get called to implement the high-level concepts, does in my experience in most cases a better job of keeping related things together.
The powers have long divided ‘loot’ — meaning weaker nations that they can exploit — between themselves. Africa is very much French territory. It’s like asking how does a Don from the Council compel the God Father to agree to a hit. “It’s just business”.

Qaddafi got what he deserved from a karmic point of view. He was instrumental in gifting the Islamic Republic to Iran so hope you enjoyed that bayonet Colonel. But obviously his regime was far better for Libya and Africans than the loonies that are cranked up, trained, and armed by Western intelligence agencies as part of their mad approach to managing exploited realms. But again “it’s just business”.

Same here. More than ten years I've moved to Java as replacement since it was the best next thing. It has a practical WYSIWYG GUI editor but still nowhere the fantastic quality of Delphi and just dead nowadays too.

A GUI written in Delphi would function natively in any Windows and then run any Mac or Linux through Wine without troubles.
Starfield is getting poor utilization on nvidia because they do not align memory, because they are doing an “indirect execution” thing and telling the driver that the wrong thing is being executed, and then doing this over and over nonstop.

This causes big pipeline bubbles, so your 4090 is mostly sitting there idle. So is a 7900XTX probably, but to a lesser extent.

It's not a single localized variable. It's entire product lines.

For instance, cars. You can buy last year's model at a discount. Or software. Or TVs. All electronics.

Saying it's "micro" vs "macro" and a bunch of hand waving around dynamic localized variables is not an explanation.

The core argument of the danger of deflation is "no one will buy anything if they know the price is going to come down". I can point to several counter examples and I can't get a straight answer why this is not true in these examples, or why deflation is so dangerous not relying on that argument

I've read plenty of econ textbooks. I can easily explain why inflation is bad and it doesn't take me forever. Its a backdoor method of taxation. It robs people of their savings, especially the less fortunate who don't have their savings in financial assets. It also hurts mostly poor people that disproportionately spend their income on non-discretionary items like food and shelter. It provides uncertainty and inefficiencies and makes operating a business harder (in extreme cases). Every extreme inflationary cycle (and there are many examples) were disastrous in terms of any available metric (deaths, despair, poverty, crime, etc).

The comment about being a 'toy service' is disingenuous...

The comment about customers is possibly valid, the difference entirely your use case. If you consume services as a corp, and your goal is to be able to decouple any employee quickly, then you do not need SSO, assuming each service you use allows you the option to delete by username (with proper auth, ofc).

SSO is only needed when you want to give a customer federated access (ability to assign roles without activation on their part). For an internal corp it is largely unnecessary and a convenience thing not a security one (it is much more secure to require different passwords for every service versus a global SSO credential that gets you everywhere).

If your "customers" are your own employees, then this is your decision not a use case or a business requirement.
Not until Putin is alive. We will probably witness a prolonged conflict with varying intensity for several years until he dies. At that point someone in Russia will be able to say this conflict didn't make sense from the very beginning. Currently nobody can say that.
> It's clear at this point that acquisition didn't work and the companies were incompatible with each other on basically every level.

I agree that the companies look largely incompatible, but it looks like it does work? An acquisition that keeps releasing products after the merge is pretty rare and is usually considered a success
I don't sell on Gumroad, but I do sell on Etsy, and use a somewhat similar software (albeit much more robust) called eRank to help spot trends and get ahead of the curve. You should look into amending this product with some more robust features:

* Utilize the API to let a Gumroad seller import their actual Sales numbers, to help further refine your reviews to sales numbers.

* Connect with google to spot search trends that lead to Gumroad products

* Run some sort of AI analysis to help the seller understand their copy is failing them for SEO, etc.

Check out eRank, and look at their offerings, and you can get a lot of ideas on how to grow this product from $50 once to $10+/mo.

The article says the Irish agency is enforcing this for the entire EU. I think this is called the "one stop shop" solution which a lot of large foreign companies and Twitter use to avoid being fined by each member state individually. It also involves some closer oversight I think.

I'm explicitly saying Twitter not X Corp because Musk in his infamous wisdom fired everyone at Twitter Ireland who was involved in ensuring they remained compliant. I think part of the requirement was also that every feature launch is run past the Ireland team to make sure it doesn't violeate EU data laws. Musk has not done that for any of the changes he introduced since the leveraged buyout.

I always viewed platforms hardware as the core organization. I really think dirt-cheap computers is their core product and all those things you mentioned are just side-effects of owning a huge number of servers. The Chromebook definitely resembles the internal platforms approach to removing as much as possible from the machine. Everyone else has followed but in 2010 the CR48 was quite a bare-bones machine.

On the software side, ChromeOS also reminds me of the Google's internal platforms software. Remove everything and start from scratch, build something that doesn't really resemble anyone else's Linux distro. Use all of the sandboxing and isolation features that other distros ignore, and invent a few new ones. Don't take the BIOS for granted. Maybe you don't need one.

> And as a reader who's worked at agencies before, he's right.

I’ve worked at a load of agencies and I don’t recognise what he's saying at all. What agencies sell $2k/mo packages? They are all either much larger finite projects or they have much larger retainers. What would you even sell for $2k/mo? That’s not going to cover anything beyond absolute basic maintenance to keep the lights on; it’s certainly not where agencies are making their money.
We don’t have to worry about deflation. As the older workforce starts dying off, and our labor force continues to shrink, everything is going to get more expensive due to lack of humans.
Oh no they'll never make that back
Also, it was comparing a headless library with a concrete (and rigid) implementation. You could use the a similar amount of React code to get the same concrete implementation.

Probably not intentionally deceitful, but it a ridiculous comparison.
It depends.

Some "single-file" libraries only have the one header, so you can use that one file. Though they often require a bit of trickery to be compiled correctly, so I prefer those with two file, one .h header and one .c source.

Some libraries are popular enough that they’re distributed in your package manager of choice: whatever your Linux/BSD distribution uses, Nix, a Cargo-like repository in some cases… In this case you can download that package and depend on it.

All working libraries can be built from source, one way or another. They each have their own preferred build system though. Most can be installed from source, so you don’t need to be aware of their build system to use it. But if you take on the dependency like that now your users will depend on the library so it’s not exactly free.

Some libraries offer several or all of the above.

Managing updates depend on how you integrate the library. If you use it as a system dependency, your users need to download and update the correct version themselves. Package managers can help there (use Ubuntu/Nix/Ports, get security updates for free… if you trust them to be quick enough, which they will be if the library is popular). The alternative is to ship your own copy of the library yourself, either by building it at home with their build system and manually importing headers & .so/.dll, or absorb their source code into your own build system (you’re on your own but you have full control).

Which is best is… up to who you’re speaking to. To oversimplify the issue, I’d say distro maintainers don’t trust developers to deliver security updates in time, so they want everyone to use .so and dynamic linking everywhere so security updates can happen in a timely manner. On the other hand developers don’t trust distro maintainers to do regular updates in a timely manner, so they’re stuck to old versions of their favourite libraries. Those who do both… maybe have gone insane from the cognitive dissonance?

This isn't preventing pods from moving from node to node, and for a lot of workloads it wouldn't even prevent making new pods. This is if you make a new storage claim (a PVC) the underlying storage filling that claim isn't being created at the moment, for one particular version of Kubernetes. Existing volumes are not impacted. Every other version is not impacted.

Loads of pods don't even use PVCs. In the several hundred deployments I routinely manage, there's only a handful of PVCs, and they aren't exactly dynamically created and destroyed. I've got many GKE clusters and no workloads I'm running are affected, and I imagine most existing workloads in GKE clusters aren't affected. I'm then also doubly not affected, because I'm not running 1.25.
Haha honesty is the best policy!

As of a couple of years ago, I was using a mid-naughts iMac with Linux installed for a number of projects. It was fine for basic scripting, data analysis, and shell-based Web access.

A heavily adblocked Firefox struggled to handle one or two tabs, and became utterly unresponsive beyond a half dozen or so.

(My typical sessions run ... well into the 100s of tabs. Yes, I'm aware I have a problem, but browser state management otherwise entirely sucks.)

That machine's replacement is now also beginning to struggle under what I've considered typical and generally reasonable Web loads.

Until browsers start heavily penalising heavy sites, this will continue to be a problem.

And on a tablet, I find that my web browser uses battery 10x faster than my bookreading software. This for documents that tend to run 10s to 100s of time longer than a typical webpage's actual text, though not their overall memory footprint.
There is what they say, which is often not exactly what they do. And even if the intentions are good, behavior or scenarios not conceived may emerge.
Yes. Spot-on. The only thing I input on my phone is YouTube Shorts because it's much easier/faster than on a computer. Of course, that is inherent in its design.
It's pretty clear by the second sentence of the article that the author has no idea what they're talking about and is just making shit up:

> Hardly anyone ever breaks through that [$50k MRR] barrier and reaches that next level where the agency generates reliably $300k+ in monthly revenue.

Why is $300k the "next level" after $50k? So if I have a $50k MRR business and 5x its revenue, I'm still not at the "next level?" I've never heard a single person say that and they present it as if it's fact and move on.
That only works if every single publisher and studio are participating in an anticompetitive cabal who are all colluding to prevent the work from being bought, in which case you have bigger problems to worry about.

> but we're back to "when the US/NATO does it it's good, when US/NATO adversaries do it it's bad"

You're talking about the hypothetical situation when China or Russia would invade a country to stop the regime from torturing and killing people by the thousands.
And you proceed to claim that when they would do it, the West would say "it's bad".

There have been plenty of occasions in, say, the last 75 years where China or Russia have invaded some country. Please correct me if I'm wrong, but not one single time was it to stop the regime from torturing and killing people by the thousands.

Otoh there have been, and still are, plenty of regimes that are killing and torturing like that, and which receive the full support from China and Russia.

I've heard of various bits of pseudoscience around that, including in eugenics and criminology.

One of the times, it escalated to genocide, and the people who committed that are widely known to history as the epitome of evil. They were trying to characterize and identify "lesser" people, and it turned out they themselves will be known forever as the worst of humanity.

There's some curious questions (e.g., why do so many overtly mean people we've seen look mean). But I suggest being careful with this space, and skeptical of people who are motivated to pursue it and those they attract.
The other way around. The US has a public domain, and in many other countries CC0 is the best you can do.
> we know that Obama's administration wasn't keen on going in Libya, and only Sarkozy(France) and Cameron(UK) insistence on attacking decided the US to support the invasion (and it was mostly logistical support).

Yep. Can confirm.

This was publicly reported during the 2011-12 period as well. There were a couple press junkets Obama, the State Dept, and DoD did at the time highlighting this stance of non-interventionism. Read some of the older Economist articles from that era as well.

I didn't know Emailgate actually had emails from that time.
