Now explain the rise of gang violence in Sweden, with kids queuing to become gang members. I don't think poverty is the explanation (nor is immigration as some claims). There's no desperation here and plenty of options for other careers or life paths.

No, they look up to the criminals. Being a gangster is cool and respect is everything. You need to respond violently to the most mundane things or you risk losing the respect.

The ongoing conflicts started because of some truly ridiculous things, like someone not being invited to a robbery and feeling humiliated/jealous when they bragged about the crime. It's always some personal reasons where someone thinks they are being disrespected, and never about turfs like you would think.
>> They are interested in breaking news, sports etc. They are just trying to avoid the platform turning into the polarising mess that Twitter is right now.

They're right to do this too. I enjoyed Threads drama free for a few days. The first time I saw a post from a journalist - it was drama. Complaining about how important news is and how it's morally wrong of Meta to not be prioritising it. So obviously self-serving too.
Clarity or “the truth” is not always some elevating panacea. Sometimes an essential delusion is what keeps a lot of us moving forward and happy.
I think Twitter/X charging money might be what kills it off. If you need to pay to post/view anything, then about 95% of the population will say "sod this, I'm out of here".

I'll be very surprised if Musk actually does go through with that promise/idea (even someone like this knows how network effects work, right?), but if he does, I'd say that would be the tipping point.

Not hiring enough people is a chronic problem for all companies. Being remote makes it worse though, since WFH tends to amplify personnel and culture problems…

The only thing WFH solves really is long commutes and noisy offices. It also makes it easier for families to organize their day, which is why a lot of parents like it.
And still countless competitors do exist. They must find some other ways to compete, because your point is valid. It's almost like the human ingenuity knows no bounds...
I remember this ad. I read a different book from the same publisher back in the days and was completely offended by having an ad in a book I just bought. The upside was that it could be removed without removing any text from the book.
I understand those are more expensive than normal accounts on commercial basis, bad value for the money. It's only that the bank cannot refuse to open a basic account because they don't like the customer's business. I doubt a debit card is included. Those accounts are needed because all wages and even social benefits are only paid by bank transfer in most EU countries.

all of the DHCP options, for example.

SLAAC just tells the endpoint device to self-assign an address and to roll with it. For example, there’s no way to pass in DNS servers with SLAAC.
If you click what looks like the link to the privkey it shows a warning encouraging you to not revoke the key with LetsEncrypt. I suppose a *.traefik.me is as untrustworthy as any other you don't the owner of, so it doesn't really matter that anyone can sign a key for it, anyone can already get a key for any untrustworthy domain name they could come up with via letsencrypt.

So it's probably only a problem for people who use traefik.me, they might be tricked into thinking they're visiting their own locally hosted site, and instead might be man-in-the-middled. Though that's a fairly specific attack coming from an APT or as a means to escalation from someone who already gained access through other means.
Anonymization is the next big think. And I'm not joking
Yep. Passing the NPVIC is the primary way forward to regulate the Electoral College to respect the popular vote.

There is too much polarization and utopian-adjacent extremists in the US political system at present.

It would take some careful thought how to improve on what the founders could not anticipate, but the current system needs a check & balance on all 3 of POTUS, COTUS, and SCOTUS to replace an unfit-for-office official.

One possibility: Perhaps a 4th branch of government with appointed-for-life by sortition panel of elders who are a safety net "board of directors" whose only function is removal of a particularly unfit elected official by unanimous vote. Their only qualifications for candidacy is that they must be of unreproachable integrity, be at least 45, have no political ties, hold no other office, and have no financial conflicts of interest. A removed elected official would be replaced according to the succession plan for their role, a special election.

Another, more radical possibility: Do away with all political parties, unlimited dark money campaign financing, and populist voting of media celebrities. Instead, fill the highest elected offices by sortition of credentialed professionals for a single 2 year term. Instead of political parties, coalitions would form around positions on issues (more nuanced than parliamentary coalition governments). COTUS and POTUS would still exist, but they would be reduced to organizational administrators who don't need to pander to billionaires. While it takes away the illusion of a sacred freedom, it replaces it with the leadership of uncorrupted, educated people who aren't constantly seeking the approval of campaign donors.
that's right

and it's superior because it usually cannot be circumvented with math or will accumulate known insecurities over time.
Scrum and agile work great for small and independent teams, but in practice a lot of companies (that claim to have moved to those) still work in corporate structures, that is, teams that are not independent, work needs to be coordinated across teams (which led to Scaled Agile Framework (https://scaledagileframework.com/ ... yeah), and there is a chain of reporting that requires tooling to do, especially with remote and / or distributed teams.
I don’t know tbh I’d assume those people donate because they made some money off of the work done on processing and want to give some back to keep development going. I’d think if you wanted to donate to the stuff they’re on about you’d find a non profit specifically for that purpose. I’m sure there are plenty and they’re probably better at it than a software foundation haha.
I worded my message badly. When I said 'the government shouldn't need to get involved' I meant in a direct way. Either I've misread the parent comment or they've edited it but I thought they proposed the government offering accounts - that I thought was unnecessary. Regulation I'm fine with.
Gait recognition can identify you 50 meters away without need for facial recognition.
I really hope you check with native Cree speakers before you publish a system like this. Smaller language communities are already being hurt by low-quality generated text. See also https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35300603 for an experience of GPT with the language Northern Saami.

Also, back-translation was never a good evaluation method. Say I don't know English; and I make a new system that calls Google Translate word for word. I back-translate the Norwegian input "den sykkelen kunne jeg gjerne hatt" and my word-for-word system gives "it the bike could I happily hat". Now I evaluate that whole sentence by putting it into Google Translate and presto I get "den sykkelen kunne jeg gjerne hatt" – can I conclude that word-for-word Google Translate is perfect? Or even worse, if you use the same system in both directions, anything that's looks like a bijection if you squint will do (reverse then reverse, transliteration into Canadian syllabics then back, encrypt/decrypt, map each word to a number, etc.).

If you have a bilingual corpus of Cree text, then you can get some automated measures (some popular ones listed at https://wiki.apertium.org/wiki/Evaluation ), but it would have to be a corpus you didn't find online since otherwise GPT-4 has it in its training data and it the numbers will not be valid for sentences that are not in that corpus.

(But anything related to Terry Pratchett probably gets my upvote.)
Same. I struggle to write concise and complex code in Python. I often think of a problem in a functional sense, and would like to just map/filter/reduce and pipe my way out of it. With python I feel constrained by what the language gives me. Useless lambdas, list comprehensions that quickly become hard to grok, stdlib and syntax that forces you to wrap things like reduce(map(filter(iter))) instead of iter | filter | map | reduce.

I'm always in awe when I see the Advent of Code solutions from Norvig in Python, they often seem so elegant. But my head isn't wired to think of the problems that way.
Most Americans are not related to native americans - why should they consider their culture as their own? It is absolutely fascinating, but a few generations back - say - Irish family would be hard-pressed to feel any belonging to it - the same way any conquerer would feel about the conquered.
I've been using a FP4 for the last year it is fine as a basic phone however:

- I've needed to have it repaired under warranty as some of the mics didn't work.

- I've needed to get their long life usb cable replaced under warranty. The connectors on the ends seem pretty flimsy and will break over time.

- For software updates they tend to be every 1-2 months with bug fixes and security patches, major Android versions take more than a year so when they talk about 5 years of software support it is more like 3 year stretched out to 5.
The hyperbole could go other way too. Eg. When only government have access to an omniscient oracle advisor and advanced AI technology, how long would it take on average for a democracy to turn into a dictatorship? Considering the asymmetry in access to information and technology between a government and civilians, a bad government would have a power to take complete control over a country. With sufficiently advanced AI technology only a handful of people are needed to maintain control over a large population and prevent any attempts to overthrow it. I don't have time right now to come up with an proper transition, but the hyperbole concludes that only one insane dictator with access to an omniscient oracle advisor is needed to destroy the whole world. This might be even more "probable" than a teenager destroying all of humanity in six months.
Wow, I’m German, but I never heard of anything like this. Though I now remember first/last page ads in sci-fi pulp novels from the 70s/80s, never thought much of that :D

You can run a wayland session without the pipewire audio stack (pipewire will still be installed, but for the video media sessions).

The pipewire audio stack replaces pulse and jack, it doesn't play well with Jack and Pulse running on the side.
It does work well for me (including doing a bit of recording and mixing with Ardour) but, from what I understand, the pro audio use cases, mainly low latency, will be a focus for the version 1.0: https://www.phoronix.com/news/PipeWire-1.0-Release-Plan

If I remember correctly we had monitors secured to our desks (we had permanent desks in the open space). Laptops we took home. During lunch etc. they were left on the desk. Generally there are lots of people around you who see you everyday and would recognise someone they haven't seen approaching your space. I believe there are lockers available too but I've never used those.

Cisco has poor software quality and control when it comes to IOS (Cisco OS not Apple's iOS) implementation that differs based on the end client or customer using their networking devices. This includes small/medium companies, universities, Large enterprise, Internet service providers, Data center, network storage...etc.

Each of the previously mentioned groups have their own implementation and licenses for specific IOS version running inside the network device (whether a Firewall, Router, Switch, or Switch with routing capabilities...etc). It has been long known that Cisco's poor software is due to the hundreds of modules/features they try to support on these devices (you never know which device will receive updates and for how long).

System administrators/Network Engineers alike always complain about the poor quality of Cisco's Software[1][2]

This (older) article states that he only switched publishers from Moving Pictures onwards:

https://gmkeros.wordpress.com/2011/09/02/terry-pratchett-and...
> Back in the 90s (starting with Moving Pictures) Terry Pratchett (yet to be knighted) changed his German publisher.

So if anything I wonder if it's the other way round - the publisher reading Moving Pictures and thinking that it was a great idea? Or maybe Terry had seen this in older books and written it into the story, not expecting that it would happen to him?

The Publisher could even argue that it's a rather meta joke they added into the book, which fits really well - but I don't think I'd want to have that argument.
> (ironically, most of them are still using X, formally known as Twitter).

Dunno, feels like the only people leaving X was the people who didn't use X anyway..

I've been using it with the same frequency as before Musik took over, and to be honest, I've not noticed anything different in the stuff I see/find/interact.
So it was on a separate page that you could tear out?

That's not so bad

Voluntary two party agreements work because they are enforced by a government.

Markets only exist in the presence of government. Read David Graeber's Debt if you want a history of how markets and money work - generally speaking, they are things created by governments, to ease the work of figuring out taxation. Those quarters and nickels and dimes only have value because you know that come tax season, Uncle Sam will knock on your door and ask you for some, and if you don't give them to him, he'll toss you in jail. This creates a demand for those coins, and therefore a market for them, so now Uncle Sam can pay his soldiers in coin, the soldiers trade it with civilians for food and lodging and boom, it's a market!

You seem to be doing that thing where you want to believe the world is fair, so you invent this magical free market to be able to pretend that life is fair.

To paraphrase Dan Luu: markets are people, all the way down.

> What's wrong with JIRA? It looks good and does its job well.

I don't really like Jira:

* it is on the slower side of things, unless you throw a decent amount of hardware at it in a self-hosted deployment (then again, something like OpenProject is similarly slow, the only truly fast piece of software in the class I've experienced was Kanboard, but it's very specialized and really light on features, so not a 1:1 competitor)
* the API isn't all that pleasant to use, even though you can sort of understand that due to the level of complexity/customization (I recall struggling with a Java client library, when I had to find issues based on the values of custom fields and some other constraints I think, but it was a while ago)
* their text formatting was pretty horrendous and unreliable on the version that I used, which is perhaps my biggest actual gripe: if you had snippets of code under and issue, as well as lists, images and a bunch of other formatting, it *reliably* broke for me whenever I tried making any changes, when I tried pasting stuff in, or using the UI buttons for formatting

That said, it looks okay and I have no problem with the actual design system. In addition, if Jira lets you do what you need to, then there's nothing wrong with that either - keep using whatever works!

Take my "complaints" with a grain of salt: I last used it a while ago and therefore don't remember super specific details, aside from the text formatting being an absolute pain every single time.
Having friends/a good network is a lot more important than academic success. Both for personal fulfilment and for getting a job in future.

Also that becoming a YouTube/Twitch creator is easiest when in university/before you have a full time job with bills to pay, and that you should probably take advantage of that. I kinda regret being so focused on writing rather than creating videos to be honest...

There would be some amount of vertical circulation due to Coriolis with the pool running parallel to the spinward-antispinward axis, yes. You could figure out exactly how much because he gives the dimensions of the ship, rotation speed, and we can estimate the size of the pool, but that would be beyond my meagre mathematical abilities.

"Most petty crime is not orchestrated by some super intelligent super criminal like depicted in a heist movie."

Right, that's the problem, it's why strict safeguards have to apply. Given half a chance law enforcement would welcome a real-time connection to Google's location data. If it ever reaches that stage then we'd be in Orwell's world.

Wasn't ever part of any military but as far as I understand having something to kill time on while there's almost nothing happening for hours and days on end is one of the main uses of having mobile phones in the trench-lines of Southern Ukraine. Also, to almost always keep in touch with the loved ones from back front, I can imagine that that has to be good for morale when you don't know if you're going to be still standing the next day.

And as far as front-line battles go, the amount of cheap drones being employed by both sides makes "identification by mobile-phone signal" pretty moot, if you're close to the front-line the other side knows exactly where you're located long before checking with your mobile-phone tower or whatever. I agree though, use of mobile phones is still a pretty good location giveaway when there's troop concentrations just at the back of the front, where it's more difficult to employ drones.

Also, this is the first protracted war fought between near-peer adversaries since the advent of the "IT revolution" (or whatever we want to call the last 30 or so years), there's lots of things that militaries are now learning when it comes to adapting said IT/tech to the battle-fronts and to the soldiers themselves.

Do it for California and you'd never stop drinking. Stuff gets posted here based on how relevant it is to the tech community, and Japan being the most developed nation that doesn't have European origins makes it different and interesting.

But still you see a lot of articles about different European countries, China, India etc, I don't think Japan is singled out here its just one of the focus points outside of the American coasts that gets the most attention.

I don't do AWS any more, but the adapters apparently used with UltraCluster had a latency of 15µs last I knew. I think the NAS benchmarks are overall less latency sensitive than DFT and would benefit less from GPUs, and I assume UltraCluster is rather expensive even by AWS standards.
Last time I looked, Fox, the website, was actually way more nuanced than FoxNews, and while the quality was still low, it's not much lower than 'regular' news website, and I wouldn't put it in the same bin as the Daily Mail.

The main advantage of Linux over other systems is that its available from source and thus can be patched and recompiled easily. Here we see someone using LD_PRELOAD to patch the behavior of a binary, because they rely on distributions pre-compiled packages without means to change the source code themselves. This sort of negates that advantage, right?
