Mainstream linguistics is descriptive and not prescriptive; language is language. By far its most important aim is to be understood. It may be that “open source” shifts in meaning in the future, but this comments section is evidence that misusing it causes confusion.
Covid has broken the social contract between parents and schools
While I tend to agree, it's just a losing battle (in my experience). The issue is that shockingly few people in organizations actually care about language improvements. Further, because orgs prioritize spitting out new features above all else, selling maintenance work like updating the JVM is seen more as pure waste than actual benefit to the company.

The one argument I've been able to make to get an update is "This has fallen out of support and will no longer get security updates". That seems to be the only motivator for my company to do updates.

I do wonder - in a parallel universe where Intel had not played dirty - would AMD have naturally risen on top? More sales -> more revenue -> more R&D -> better products.

At the very least, if AMD had been able to maintain competition for longer, would we have been stuck at 2/4 cores for so long? Still struggling to make ECC RAM mainstream?
Yeah but do you microwave those steel containers?
What? You've inherited a functioning team with a certain code culture, and you're establishing your dominance by making them conform to your "superior" standards? Are they still writing Ruby or will you make them switch to a different language as well?

The downsides for ID-verified entry are shared with ID-required voting.

> It seems that so many people my age mustered out of finding new music sometime in their college years. As they age they return to that music to, I imagine, remember that time in their life.

It also used to be an age where music is simply prevalent, but even that has changed.

Being associated with something even slightly popular can resurrect a 4 decades old hit familiar to the elders from obscurity. However, I haven't yet seen the reverse where something is really popular and drives across age groups.

Where the hell is the modern equivalent to Gangnam Style, for example? (I chose that because it's more modern, but you've got mega-hits that everybody knows from most decades--until about 2010 (see: check any karaoke night--start a betting pool on how long it takes until someone does something from Journey, for example--you won't reach the fifth song) or watch an entire venue join in for something from Neil Diamond)

Taylor Swift is supposedly killing it, yet I probably wouldn't be able to name anything she did in the last 10 years. Depeche Mode is releasing a bunch of new stuff--anybody heard any of it? Johnny Marr has released a bunch of new stuff in the last 10 years--I somehow actually bumped into one song somewhere in public. Has anybody not already a solid David Bowie fan heard anything off of Blackstar? How about Tori Amos? She's still just as brilliant as ever.

Right, look at conferences, MBA programs, etc. There are/were "remote" options but they essentially have no value, it was just a placeholder we tried. Some kinds of work can be remote of course. But learning and networking only really works in person.
And for-profit insurance companies (in the US) use QALY to decide what to treat and whom rather than leaving it to the discretion of patient's doctors to decide what care is necessary.

Then the view of greed falls on the organization and the artists instead of on scalpers.

It also is up in the air of the market value is really what people are paying or if it’s being inflated by scalpers. Some people will pay it but I don’t think it’s an accurate view of what the price should be in that situation.

But we saw exactly this with the recent Lorcana release. Local game stores acted like scalpers charging scalper prices, it is hurting the perception of the game of what normal prices are.

Mortgage interest rates have been far, far higher than 7% in the past.

In 1981, the average mortgage rate hit 16.63%. The rates were higher than 7% all through the '70s, '80s, and most of the '90s, not dropping below 7% until 1998.
The First Sale doctrine is fine, hoarding (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hoarding_(economics)) and price gouging not so much. Rights come with responsibilities. Maybe I can buy up a pallet of toilet paper in the middle of a pandemic, but people would be right to think I was a total piece of shit if I did.

Society's tolerance for parasites who do that kind of thing has a breaking point and when the people being negatively impacted get fed up enough to take action I'll have no sympathy for anyone who seeks to make others miserable just so that they can profit off of their suffering.
>Property has become a cringy weird national obsession

I don't think this can be understated. Being a landlord is so normalised here that people seemingly can't connect the dots between every able person collecting 'investment properties' and the impact it has on the housing market (among other things).
Sure, but when some damage is already done, you can and must still prevent greater damage. And you have to assume, that one day something fails. So - "monitoring active connections is a smart way, no?"

Because people will pay huge amount more regardless.

Kind of like how when the 4090 released and was being instantly scalped at every website it popped up on then resold for double to triple retail, and yet thousands of redditors were magically “just stumbling on to one totally randomly, oh and my 2050 also sold for $1200!!”
Have you tried using one of the ARM MacBooks? I used to be strongly of the same opinion as you are, but after getting an M1 MacBook pro from work, it's not so clear-cut anymore.

The laptops are very, very good. I'm not a huge fan of macOS but it mostly works. The hardware is best I've used in a laptop.

I am an advanced Linux user and have contributed to the kernel fixes for my own laptops. And this just speak of the experience in general, there's always at least some issue with suspend, touchpad, extra keyboard keys, ... always something.
Over the years I have tried Trello, Asana, Notion, Airtable, Jira, GitHub Issues, Shortcut, EverNote, etc.

I settled with Obsidian for notes, and Linear for tasks.

With Obsidian, it lets you separate personal, career, and business notes thru files and folders.

With Linear, it lets you separate projects by workspaces, it lets you separate tasks by sprints (or cycles), it lets you separate tasks for teams oncce you have people working for you.

Now you're the one being literal. Feel free to substitute "work anywhere" for "run anywhere" in my previous comment since we're referring to a bunch of design and branding and not literal code.

I understand it's a problem, I think it's quite hard, I appreciate that Netflix does a reasonable job, I still don't think your joke works the way you think it does.

Let me break it down further and attempt to fix it so I can perhaps disabuse you of the notion that I'm so far out on the spectrum I'm incapable of communicating effectively or understanding humor (way to slander "techies" by the way, your "design thinking" superiority complex is showing).

You said:
"My favorite example for this problem is Netflix. You could restore a BlackBerry from 2005 that you found at a pawn shop and it would probably have a Netflix app on it."

A version that actually works as a "joke" - aside, I hate the use of that word here, since it's an insult to the craft (1):
"Netflix has to work anywhere - their design is so consistent, flexible and ubiquitous it would have worked on on a BlackBerry from 2005... in screen reader mode."

I've had to deal with this over the past six years with five kids in school and every time they back off. Honestly, I would love to litigate this one (the bill will suck), but there comes a point where we are no longer taking care of kids and are in the zone of policing without a badge.

Also, even if I lose point #0, I think 1-3 are good enough.
Bribery is illegal for the person bribing and the person being bribed.

Generally the person who is bribing has higher penalty, because she is an instigator, but both are culpable.

It makes sense, by accepting the bribe, you do damage to some third party. "I was stealing, but only because he offered me money"... nope.

At least in my country and I assume in the rest of EU countries.

Xplane and msfs are the canonical ones. The current msfs is actually very newbie friendly. Great guided tutorials and the complexity and difficulty is hugely scalable.

I enjoyed aeroflyFS also however as a simple pickup and fly.
Incredibly obvious. One could say we can't prove it, but it's a fact and I don't need it proven scientifically.

Anyone who had been around my dog would know it. I have no idea if all dogs are the same, in that they act out their dreams--but mine does, and it's unmistakable.
This guy sounds like a delight at parties.

But he's right. Many aspiring programmers have fallen for the same trap. They don't want to learn to program, they want to have made a program. While you can write your magnum opus, a video game, or an operating system kernel, without learning to program first, it's infinitely more difficult than doing it the other way around.

My guess is that it is a difference in volume. While a microwave is very efficient at exciting water in food, the range top is putting out a _lot_ of heat based on a 220V (in US) electric source or natural gas source.
Yes, for $1,000,000,000/bottle.

I imagine silk harvesting is already a difficult process, it being the most expensive natural fabric. Then add the step of doing it all in a laboratory environment, the increased regulation and scrutiny. Thats all assume that the technology to make bottle out of silk already exists, if not of course that technology would have to be developed.
The article wasn't clear, maybe someone knows — how much stronger is the silk than normal silkworm silk? Comparing it to Kevlar is kind of apples and oranges for someone who doesn't know how Kevlar compares with either spider silk or silkworm silk.
Norway! I think it’s somewhat similar in the nearby countries, but I don’t know for sure. You’re not even allowed to add the ticketmaster fee to your reseller price, so it’s techincally cheaper to buy it second-hand
"The box jellyfish actively hunts its prey (small fish), rather than drifting as do true jellyfish. They are strong swimmers, capable of achieving speeds of up to 1.5 to 2 metres per second or about 4 knots (7.4 km/h; 4.6 mph).[19] and rapidly turning up to 180° in a few bell contractions.[4] Some species are capable to avoid obstacles.[4]" [0]

So wasn't this already, sorta known? If they can do that, then surely they've some notion of what is worth chasing after, and have demonstrated the ability to differentiate between something nourishing (like small fish) from something like an iPhone someone accidentally dropped off of the side of a boat.

The idea here is that the scalped ticket would not get the refund.

Scalper pays with their card

Someone purchases the ticket from the scalper

Venue distributes special code (short like 2 letters) that gets tied to your ticket.

If you go back to the website, and enter the code, it's not benefiting your credit card, but the scalpers. So if you purchase from an unauthorized person, you have no reason to enter the code.

Wrong code entered twice - lose your 480.

Numbers could be adjusted to make more sense for more people, as long as it makes the scalper ticket seem ridiculous.
The flying public pays Homeland Security / the TSA a $5.60 fee to check ID and perform screening.

The cost to the concert going public of ID verification would probably be a lot lower than the costs scalping imposes. And the concert venues could certainly capture more than $5 per concert goer by raising prices closer to what the typical person actually pays.
Eh? Intel stock is basically flat in that time. It was ~28 around this time in 2007 (IIRC, was my hire date), and its now 32.

Intel stock is a lot of things, but 'up 80%' hasn't been something true since the early 2000s.

ETA: That was 16 years ago I was thinking of, I forgot about the nasty dip in 2008. I misremembered, it was ~26 when I was hired, dipped to 18 the next year, and slowly climbed a while and has been around that $30/share number for ages.
That was, indeed, a careless mistake on my part, but it does not alter the facts behind this discussion.
> living longer, healthier lives than they ever have.

This is not true in America. Life expectancy has dropped significantly after COVID and several types of cancer are on the rise (notably, pancreatic and liver). Americans are more obese than ever with significant all-cause mortality and lifestyle impacts.

While the impact of COVID may eventually even out, it is just not the case that health and life expectancy is monotonically increasing.
So… she’s correct in the industrial regime that matters, but technically incorrect in the experimental regime where the energy is not recovered?

Thanks for sharing this! This is the programmer/co-developer Melos (posting from my ancient college-era HN account...)

As other comments point out, yeah this is technically NOT Open Source, but other terms don't communicate the intent as quickly at a glance (I would argue the general understanding of the term would include Even the Ocean/Anodyne's repositories)... and as someone mentions, it's basically a "come on, we're two people, don't screw us" License that's otherwise pretty generous, and the license does distinguish the repos from Open Source (tm).

What you are describing is basically social democracy and exists in large parts of Europe.

That said capitalism is a state enforced system, which is protected with violence. Every attempt to topple the system and provide an alternative has been met with violence by the state, and every successful revolutions have been through violence. It is hardly a scientifically pristine environment to provide a fair comparison of alternatives, is it?

There will come a time in human history where capitalism is a thing of the past, and only then will we have the tools to judge alternatives. As of now, we can clearly see that early attempts at capitalism were horrible, and resulted in travesties for the common working population. This is the same story of any system that preceded it. I have a feeling future peoples will largely blame the current system for the climate crisis, and deem it equally bad—if not worse—than our historic alternatives.
Not sure what you're talking about, if you pay Google for support you get support.

Workspace support is good in my experience, we interact every 2-3 weeks and they can usually resolve our issues or know when to escalate. You can call or chat. I know that you can also get phone support as a consumer now via Google One, but I haven't had to use it yet personally.
Offering a good deal isn't bribery. Bribery is when you give a decisionmaker money to make him make decisions against the wishes of the organization he represents. In this case it is in the interests of these companies to take these deals since they were good for them, they weren't bribed to take it.

I’m older than you and still love new music… but have noticed the variation that exists among many of my/your peers.

My current theory is that while brain development and age plays a role, the psychological trait openness plays an equal role, maybe a greater one with age. Conscientiousness might too.

(I also do music composition and songwriting as a hobby, but I can’t figure out if that’s a contributing cause or another manifestation of the underlying psychology. Fortunately/unfortunately I don’t have the problems of fame tying me to a work I’ve outgrown.)

Not with digital ticketing. No ID is necessary. It is a rotating code so you can't just ship someone a screenshot. You have to have the Ticketmaster app, logged into your account. Unless scalpers want to start giving away their entire Ticketmaster accounts, it would stop it easily.

It usually starts with an email, and is resolved pretty quickly when these boxes are checked:

[ ] We are supplying the hardware.

[ ] We wish to protect our kids and our own rights. Letting the school surveil my home network or office (when the kids are doing homework there) is a no-go.

[ ] Parents are not wingnuts (helps that I'm a developer and business owner and my wife is a teacher at another district) and can afford to lawyer up.

I've only had to have a lawyer get involved once, and that was a 15 minute call with the school district's attorney. I think the conversation was pretty much, "is he serious about this?" "Yes. I'm on retainer."

Excellent. Intel absolutely deserves it. CPU market is duopoly, even today.

$1 billion fine seems like a lot, but let's assume $100/CPU, 50% profit margin and 5 years (2002-2007). 1000_000_0000 / 100 / 2 / 5 = 1 000 000. So you would need to sell 1 million CPUs to make a $1 billion profit over 5 years. Eminently doable on EU laptop market, even back then.

Definitely doesn't seem disproportionate.
Mao Tse-tung (Zedong) is another rival, with Quotations from Chariman Mao Tse-tung having from 800 million to 6.5 billion printed copies, though a fair argument could be made that these were not market-based sales.

The list of best-selling / most-published books includes the Bible (~5 billion copies), The Qur'an (~800 million), and the Book of Mormon (~190 million). Along with Mao's book, all of these share the characteristic of being propaganda, in the modern and/or original senses of the word, literally.

Of individual books with a known author: Don Quixote by Miguel de Cervantes (>500 million), A Tale of Two Cities by Charles Dickens (>200 million), and The Little Prince by Antoine de Saint-Exupery (~200 million) top the list. Rowling and Christie are 4th and 5th on that list.

Rowling tops the list for book series (500 million), followed by R.L. Stein, and Erle Stanley Gardner (the Perry Mason series).

Curiously, Shakespeare doesn't appear on the list. Wikipedia, caveat lector.

This does not appear to be IPFS, it's just some crude method of rewriting ipfs:// URLs into HTTP requests to gateways that then do the actual IPFS.
