This comment is incredibly naive. Cisco isn't making acquisition decisions based on your happiness. Splunk's revenue is increasing every year and their losses decrease. It is an incredibly popular tool that complements their products and services well.
I like Disney’s dubs generally. Having watched Princess Mononoke 5 times with the Disney sub and 5 times with the Disney dub, I like them both for different reasons. Castle In The Sky has had a bunch of dubs: https://dubbing.fandom.com/wiki/Castle_in_the_Sky Maybe the commenter would prefer a different dub.

EDIT: To answer your question specifically, I like the original voice actors sometimes and find it makes a difference to how I feel about a work sometimes. I also think subs can convey some contexts that are difficult in speech, especially culture-specific words like honorifics and food that in my experience are often left more untranslated in subs.
Man I totally agree with you, but you have to understand how bad meth has made things. The schools used to send home coats and clothing too, but the parents would sell them. In a just world the state would throw those piece of shit parents in rehab and have a wonderful place for the kids to stay until their parents either straightened up or lost custody. But it is what it is and we do what we can.
>why do we measure time in hours, days, weeks, months, and years rather than in decaseconds, hectoseconds, kiloseconds, megaseconds, etc.?

We don't use them generally because at the time of French Revolution, due to taxes, standardizing the state units of measurement of physical goods was a much more pressing concern than time. (If I were to guess, there were no work hours limits, and thus it just hadn't crossed the popular mind). Weeks were changed to have ten days though.

That's not to say that they hadn't tried: decimal time was mandatory for a few years before they realized that there were too many clocks around, and pushing decimal time can actually turn people hostile against the then-new metric system.

We still kinda sorta use them in form of fractions of Julian days.
Interesting. The check should only be done once on hover (even if you mouseover multiple times) and then again on click, so I'll have to investigate.

Uhhhh you splunk scales no matter the size. for just pure ingest. Now if you got duped into the SVC model I can see what you mean. But for pure Gigs/Day ingest if you know what youre doing it can scale infinitely.
I think it's what you do with it.

I've used vim-plug for over a decade and it's been working fine. Yes there has been a lot of churn within some plugins, but overall it hasn't been that bad in my opinion.

And with lazy tracking plugin versions in a lock file, it's easy enough to pin plugins to a known good version whenever something breaks.

(I finally rewrote my entire config, and lazy is vastly better than vim-plug. I should've done so sooner.)

cellular ipads have an RF transparent band on their edges.

ipad and iphone also have antenna designs integrated with the body design, which currently is only true for wifi and bluetooth in the above mentioned laptops.

are you wanting a plastic band atop the laptop closing screen, to get a cellular capable antenna in an otherwise metal body? perhaps that's just not a priority with enough customers.
Oh, how I wish I had your scripts (and insights!) when I was analyzing Unix logs in 1986, looking for the footprints of an intruder...
Yep. But the idea that a RAG backed LLM is merely an efficient summarizer is missing the real power, which is it can summarize then be interrogated iteratively to refine in a semantic sense the actual questions you have, or explore adjacent spaces. It’s not just a search engine that can summarize, it’s a search engine that you can interrogate in natural language and it responds directly to your questions, as opposed to throwing a bunch of documents at you that have a probability of being related to your query.
Remote identity proofing, either automated to confirm liveness or with a video call. Takes about 3-5 minutes in my experience.

One caveat to "big pharma finds cures" is that, to my understanding, a lot of the research is done via public institutions, big pharma just handles the manufacturing and distribution.

I know adalimumab's discovery was funded (at least in part) by government grants, but Humira still made AbbVie richer than god.

Their revenue is increasing and their losses are decreasing. They are fairly close to profitability. This is just nonsense.
tl,dr:

Speaking to The Register, Roman Khavronenko, co-founder of VictoriaMetrics, said the previous system had experienced problems with high cardinality, which refers to the level of repeated values – and high churn data – where applications can be redeployed multiple times over new instances.

Implementing VictoriaMetrics as backend storage for Prometheus, the CMS monitoring team progressed to using the solution as front-end storage to replace InfluxDB and Prometheus, helping remove cardinality issues, the company said in a statement.
This is right up my alley.

I have seen 40+ physicians after my reaction to flouroquinolones 11 years ago. They denied it was possible for the medication to cause issues. Even Mayo fucking clinic. I kept hearing the med is out of my system.

In the mean time the label received a new warning because of people like myself reporting neurological symptoms to the FDA.

Still, my EMG was normal so several neurologist told me I’m fine.

Then, I diagnosed myself with small fiber neuropathy with mild autonomic involvement, this is after years of research and learning about any possible causes of neuropathy and symptoms.

Requested nerve punch biopsy from a new neurologist at a top medical institution. Came back normal, so he said „no small fiber neuropathy”.

Well that’s incorrect. Skin punch biopsy has about 60-70% accuracy. He doesn’t offer any more help and says he can’t help me.

I find a new physician at another top medical hospital. They know how to perform the tests I want, which was some autonomic tests and QSART, which is a sweat test.

The autonomic test was normal. QSART revealed small fiber neuropathy.

I’m sorry but it is absolutely fucking unacceptable. I did most of the research and had to gently steer physicians myself. I would never get a proper diagnosis. 11 years! I kept hearing its anxiety. It’s in my head. This is all while seeing top docs, and even professors. The medical community is not doing their job.

There needs to a system in place that looks at results. If a patient gives up and goes to another doctor that actually finds something then there is clearly an issue.

I do have an idea for a business that would help physicians. Basically a central intake form that is constantly being updated with new research, it would provide physicians with some key areas to investigate and possible tests/treatments. Also inform the patient why such and such tests are being done and why the symptom is difficult to diagnose.

Matrix 2.0 is a major step towards getting friends & family on Matrix.

Firstly, it's not introducing new features - it's just making the current featureset work super-efficiently (while retaining compatibility with today's Matrix). So there should be no fragmentation between Element/Fluffychat/Thunderbird, with the possible exception of the new scalable encrypted VoIP conferencing (but then very few Matrix clients implemented the old VoIP conferencing, plus you can always just embed an Element Call instance to get at it now - as Element X does today).

Secondly, we're explicitly working to protect Matrix from the commercial interests from Element (the company set up by the team who created Matrix, of which I'm ceo/cto as well as Matrix project lead). We already have The Matrix.org Foundation (https://matrix.org/foundation) as an independent non-profit to hold the Matrix IP and maintain its neutrality - but we also just hired Josh Simmons (former President of the OSI) as its independent Managing Director (https://matrix.org/blog/2023/09/introducing-josh-simmons-man...).

So: going forwards, the Foundation increasingly does not have to depend on Element not being evil, but instead has its own independent management to ensure the protocol exists to support everyone in the ecosystem, without fragmentation, as per the guiding principles at https://matrix.org/foundation - under its own autonomy.

I'd say this is is good news for libre software privacy & security type people, but then again I'm biased. Practically, the only thing getting in the way of getting friends & family on Matrix is that Element X requires fancy OIDC-native homeservers for registration, so newbies won't be able to use Element X to join Matrix yet. But the app itself should be an excellent way to get folks on board in the very near future.

> basically, this would end card rewards under the premise that merchants would pass along interchange savings to consumers.

I mean, I wouldn't expect merchants would lower prices by <2% but maybe they waited longer to raise prices later? I mean debit cards are cheaper than credit cards but not by much the last time I looked (like ~1% cheaper, around 2% vs closer to 3% for CCs).
That's a trivially true statement for any descriptor which can be applied to both a business and a nation? National economic collapse generally means civil war and anarchy in almost any case.

Nothing will go to stdout! Nothing is the best thing you can have when it comes to program output. Easiest validation! This is also how all Unix commands work -- they don't write to stdout unless you tell them to. But, if there's nothing extraordinary happening during the program execution -- nothing is written.

But why would you write your own logs instead of using something built into your language's library? I believe Python's logging module writes to stderr by default. Go's log package always goes to stderr.

But... today I've learned that console.log() in NodeJS writes to stdout... well, I've lots another tiny bit of faith in humanity.
>> Is there any legit way in which whoever made this trade could have got a wind of a potential acquisition without relying on inside knowledge?

Yes, people try to follow private plane transponders of bankers and corp executives to/from corporate headquarters. This is harder for 2 SV companies, it isnt like the plane is flying to some rural HQ.

IANAL, but I'd guess that betting on an acquisition based on public data about private plane routes would make this trade legal IFF that happened.
Software developer and aspiring 7th generation winemaker from Georgia (Republic of) here.

We're proud of Georgia being one of the oldest wine producing regions. In fact, it is called Cradle of Wine for a reason. Per Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wine#History):
> The earliest known traces of wine are from Georgia (c. 6000 BCE).

Also, traditional Georgian winemaking is something worth exploring if you're a wine enthusiast: wine being made in the large clay pots (Qvevri) buried in the ground. Long maceration/skin-contact, 500+ endemic grape varieties, etc...

P.S. Check out the website of my family's small winery: https://www.chekura.wine

For some postal employees easy access to credit card mailings is irresistible and they get prosecuted for credit card fraud..

The specifics of what they record in a verification is a bit vague and I would be concerned that some would sell celebrity accounts, or a way to get into an account used for private financial access, etc, even if the access to identity with other government agencies is theoretically a bigger pot.

Did I blink and miss when cars stopped being purchased, and started being licensed like software?

Most of this research is about manufacturers' legal cover (privacy policies).

If I owned a car like this I would have my lawyer send a formal letter to the manufacturer explaining that I disagree with their terms, and opt out of all this garbage. Clarifying they do NOT have my consent, regardless of what buttons their UI forces me to push to drive my vehicle.

If they tried to tell me I'm no longer allowed to use the vehicle, it would be a delicious lawsuit over what exactly my $50k or whatever bought me (that they'd effectively sold me a lemon).

Is it OK to force folks to go to the Post Office to verify their government issued ID, in order to say receive benefits or pay a tax or fee? It is exclusionary to verify ID when voting, so what is the difference here?
It's not "just as much" by any stretch. A more comparable scenario is – you pollute by 10 units, your neighbor pollutes by 1000 units, and people knock on your door and say, well the neighbor is hopeless, but to save the environment you need to stop showering every day and get your usage down to 5 units. Have you made a difference? Technically, sure. But ultimately (1) you have drastically reduced your own quality of life for no measurable gain and (2) the real problem (next door) stays unsolved.

The only way out of the tragedy of the commons is strict regulation, not "ignore the bad actors and do the right thing yourself".
> First, available technical features don't impact community aspects.

That's a naive take, but I think it's worth moving on to something much more important...

> Blocks are reasonably rare, but generally implemented with good reason. Well-administered instances which play well with others tend very much not to get blocked...

I notice that you keep using weasel words like "reasonably" and "generally" and "tend" and "typically" with casually dismissive motte-and-bailey appeals to "well-administered" and "good reason" and "small number of members". You do not appear to be engaging in good faith.

Please address the fact from your own statements that your participation globally depends on whether another instance administrator likes your instance's administrator, and explain why you believe that's not an issue relating to separation of communities and server administration policies, and explain how that's not a direct result of demanding that identity providers be communities where absolute consensus dictates both administrative policy and also administrator personal behavior.

I hope you understand the absurdity here of binding identity provision and restrictions on who you personally are allowed to communicate with to disputes between distributed instance administrators that may have nothing to do with you personally purely by virtue of deciding that identity providers must necessarily be consensus communities.

ElasticSearch by itself is not a Splunk replacement except in very simple use cases.
Just to make this more explicit for those following along... this is just another aspect of Google's TVC (temporary, vendor and contractor) caste system. Google's full-time workforce is supported by a larger shadow workforce of contractors who are treated as disposable and routinely denied basic workplace protections. I know TVCs who were illegally denied access to basic workplace facilities like bathrooms while required to work at a Google office.

(I do think Google Maps is still generally better than Apple Maps and OSM, but I want the TVC situation to be recognized.)
I assume they used the "prepare.sh" script for that 50M file: https://github.com/madmurphy/libconfini/tree/master/dev/test... (you need to clone the repo to run it, because it depends on some other files in there).

The file it generates is not valid TOML though; even if you fix the obvious syntax issues you run in to issues like:

% tomlv ./big_file.ini
Error in './big_file.ini': toml: line 35: Key 'section' has already been defined.

Perhaps tomlc99 doesn't check for this; I didn't try it.

Maybe I should add something to toml-test for this; while I agree that 50M files are somewhat rare[1] and that performance isn't a huge consideration, it's not entirely unimportant either, and this can give people a bit of a "is the performance of my parser horribly atrocious or roughly fine?" kind of baseline.

[1]: One use-case I have is that I use TOML for translation files (like gettext .po, except in, well, TOML) and in a large application with a whole bunch of translations I can see that adding up to 50M.
