It's certainly possible to do. Public recursive DNS isn't that big of a spec that you can't have two independent teams doing it, and mandate they do things differently when possible. Run the two /24s on different ASNs, too.

I've had sales teams pitch me on their authoritative DNS service running heterogenously, although I guessing both partitions gathered config from a single place, but we didn't get that far in the potential customer pipeline.

Of course, just because it's possible doesn't mean they're likely to do it.
Amazon should be nationalized and run as a worker-owned and worker-controlled co-op.

I think this is the most infuriating thing about US healthcare. Your doctor thinks you need a diagnostic test to make sure you don’t have cancer?

Sorry bud, random bureaucrat at Premera thinks not! But you’re welcome to spend hours of your time filing and following-up on an appeal with absolutely zero chance of a different outcome!
Nix Darwin supports brew, so this isn't really a reasonable argument.

> So, switch to using both?

This is an option, yes. Plus, it has the added benefit of you not needing to manage `brew doctor`, `brew cleanup`, etc. yourself. So you're not stuck with weird packages you installed once, never needed again, and forgot to clean up.

It's strange that people are so against declarative systems, or even file-based OS configuration. When I get my new Macbook I was up-and-running within a few minutes. I can't imagine maintaining a list of brews I need to re-install just to set up everything + my configs + everything else. Nix Darwin just made this so ridiculously easy.

Plus I can share almost all of my configuration with my Linux setups so I have a near-consistent environment whether I'm on Mac or Linux.

The overhead of remembering the names for Brew, Apt, Snap, or whatever package managers exist seems like a lot of overhead, and I just value declarative, reproducible systems. Managing my packages on the fly?

Sorry, no.
Yeah but that's the same as a regular home DNS server that isn't recursive. Your devices also have their own cache.
Nix is complex (I suppose), but I would argue once you've gotten past the learning curve, it's much simpler to orchestrate with. Determinate systems are far simpler to manage/debug.
I'm adding another comment and eating humble pie because I found out this evening that the Samsung keyboard application saves up to 100 items in the Samsung Keyboard clipboard in plain text, with no way to set any kind of auto clear and it does this no matter what other keyboards you install and use. For example, you can install gBoard (Google Keyboard) and set it as the default keyboard, copy something to the clipboard, and it will be there in your Samsung keyboard regardless of whether you set gBoard to auto clear the clipboard every hour. The only way to completely clear the clipboard is via manually pressing five buttons: first the clipboard button followed by the trash can icon, followed by select all, followed by delete, then confirm. This is obviously a massive security risk if you are using a 3rd party password manager and, despite lots of requests for many years, Samsung have declined to do anything about it.

Thankfully, it does look like you can uninstall these packages and most of the other Samsung bloatware using adb or the Universal Android Debloater[1] but it is still some of the most exceptionally disgusting behaviour I've ever seen from a major tech company and I hope that either the EU or some other governing body forces them to fix it or Google bakes something into Android that makes it impossible for them to do. Either way, I will be jumping ship to a more trustworthy brand as soon there is one that has an adequate desktop mode with Quadlock case support.

Carbon fibre is definitely conductive. A couple of years ago I measured a 1” diameter tube and got about 15ohms/ft.
That's fantastic, and hopefully will go a long way toward making VTE even more widely used than it already is.

One reason people still use slower and less standards-compliant terminal applications is that VTE has been fairly slow.

Hopefully VTE will work on better Unicode support soon (though it's already one of the best on Linux, except that its ligature/emoji support could use work).

Was there an other side to this war? The most dangerous animal you're likely to come across (realistically, without getting photoshop involved) in an average Indian street would be a monkey. I've also come across many varieties of snakes, from time to time, but they're generally chill and just want to be left alone. The monkeys are ruthless bastards though, not to be trifled with.

I was using Cloudflare DNS for a while until learning it was the cause of archive brokenness, switched to Google DNS, and recently have started trying out Adguard DNS just out of curiosity of trying out DNS-over-QUIC (requires a VPN app that supports that). Can't say whether it's better or worse but always fun to try out a new tech.
The chickens won't come home to roost in anything like a dramatic moment of reconing. The USA will just slowly become more and more like many Latin American countries that should be prosperous in theory, and for some of their people there is incredible prosperity, but for most people it just appears like the only way to get ahead is to join some kind of thinly veiled racket masquerading as "business" or whatever.
It's not always about being uncool. Sometimes it's about your current device getting slow enough to be annoying, so you want to replace to avoid paying the daily mental tax, "death through thousand papercuts", coming from the single piece of electronics you use most of, day in, day out. And that is caused mostly by software bloat - as mentioned elsewhere in the thread, between OS updates and app updates, a year is about how long a flagship phone has before it starts to become annoying to use. And then it only gets worse.

A CRDT can have last-write-wins semantics (as in the article above), but LWW doesn’t fully describe a CRDT because it doesn’t specify a way to determine which write is actually “last”. CRDTs don’t assume that there is a fully-ordered stream of updates, so there is no “last update” per se.

The answer is on some of the other comments on this page. Insurance companies make reimbursement so difficult that some doctors do not want to accept the insurance.
> figuring out an inkwell that doesn't splosh ink around everywhere or floats just over the bed is probably more work than the idea is worth

What if...

- cut a custom bed out of a piece of plywood or something, letter-shaped so there's a few cm of open space along one side

- position an ink well directly under the Z gantry

- set your Z offset such that the tip of the quill is 0 and set your min-z to -5cm or something

Refilling the quill would then be homing the X axis and dipping the quill down to negative Z.

Debit cards are multi-branded. STAR is a popular debit network. Running a transaction over a debit network is far cheaper; often the merchant only incurs a flat fee for the transaction, and most card terminals give the customer a choice.
The Melville Decimal System popularized by https://www.librarything.com may be of interest.

Here's an explanation from their footer:
"Although Dewey invented his system in 1876, recent editions of his system are in copyright. LibraryThing's Melvil Decimal System is based on the classification work of libraries around the world, whose assignments are not copyrightable. The "schedules" (the words that describe the numbers) come from a pre-copyright edition of his system, John Mark Ockerbloom's Free Decimal System, and member contributions."
Scrolling through the images for the printer on amazon, I came to this one:

https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71AlgUqmZvL._AC_UF1000,1...

Which says it only works with an account and ongoing internet access and branded cartridges and suggests the M100w- if you want a printer that works.

It's not a good choice, IMHO, but it's not like they hid it either.
> The argument that it helps inexperienced developers approach the codebase is, IMO, a poor one as it tends to incentivize an iteration loop that lacks understanding and is simply trying to make all the red go away. In fact I find that the type system is often a barrier to truly understanding what's going on as it effectively adds a very domain specific language to every project that has to be learned on top of the language itself.

What? It helps developers inexperienced with a given codebase (not necessarily inexperienced generally), because you can very easily understand the types being passed into functions. You may need to understand why a function is behaving a certain way, so you look at the arguments, if you see a type you don't recognize you can push a button and your IDE will take you to the definition of that type. If you want to you can with another key combination see all the inheritors of that type, and so on. It makes it much easier to feel confident about what one can and can't do with any given object at any given time, which is helpful when one is getting up to speed with an existing breed of architecture.
> Shor's algorithm is capable of factoring 21 into 7 x 3. That's a long way off from factoring the thousands of digits-long numbers

That is quite misleading, per my understanding.

Today's or near-future quantum computers can do this level of arithmetic, but Shor's algorithm does not have hardware limitations because it's an algorithm and not a computer. You can apply it to a thousand digits as well as to one. Apparently the thousand digits requires a certain number of qubits, i.e. a big enough quantum computer, but that's kind of the point: many people expect that we will gain that capability (keeping enough qubits stable for long enough to do the computation) sooner or later. Security agencies are saying to expect it in about ten years from now. Maybe you know better, yes can be, but that is not where I am going to put my money.

There now exist algorithms that can mitigate this risk, might as well use them. Why try to convince people they shouldn't bother?
I'm surprised there - I got a debit card at 14 from my bank, and that was a decade and a half ago!
> Dynamic typing also makes a ton of optimizations basically impossible and even after monumental efforts languages like Javascript are still quite slow, inconsistent and memory inefficient outside of trivial benchmarks.

Please provide evidence for this extreme claim. I can point to benchmarks[1] where JavaScript is competitive with or even better than compiled static-typed languages like Java.

(any argument that those are "trivial benchmarks" is automatically invalid without actual empirical evidence)

This is an oddly defensive response considering the time they took to etymologically dig into an expression that I and likely 99% of native English speakers have never encountered, despite your claims of it being a perfectly cromulent word.
Yeah no sorry, anyone who reads BNW outside the lens of the cold war endgame knows that Huxley's angle was never any -ism but human consumption in general, and harmful extremes of that consumption informing literally every other aspect of our lives.
In the past few years we've learned that no matter what course of action a group of any significant size chooses to take, at least 25% of them will just say "no, fuck you" and either refuse to go along or actively sabotage the effort. Given that, what's your alternative? How do you get the necessary level of cooperation happening right now so there's some semblance of civilization left for people 3 generations from now?
> he was asked to support news organizations

I think that's a pretty disingenuous way of putting it. Meta and Google were told that by law they would need to pay money to /link/ to news content. Everyone else pays Meta and Google to run ads or does SEO, and now Meta has to pay the people they're linking to (but only if its news). It's completely back-asswords and I support their protest.

"Hey McDonalds, when this one group orders a cheeseburger you have to give them money instead of them paying you"

"Okay, we won't serve those people cheeseburgers."

Same situation, just as ridiculous.

Evaluating Atlassian Intelligence
Intel doesn’t really make low end CPUs like that though. The Zynq is an awesome little chip and there really isn’t anything on the market to compare it to as far as I know. From my perspective sitting on the sidelines of this industry, Intel went all-in assuming companies would want FPGAs in the data centre the same way they want GPUs in the data centre and that bet didn’t pan out.

3 Ways to Balance Money and Meaning
> I understand that it's wasteful, but maybe it's necessary to sustain itself?

Some waste is the cost of resiliency. But with phones (and other electronics and appliances), we're talking about extreme amounts of waste. Way more than is needed to keep around and develop the capacity and know-how.

> Especially from a feedback perspective from consumers?

What feedback? Unless they screw things really badly, they're just listening to the echoes of their own marketing departments. This is a supply-driven market with high natural barriers to entry. Customers buy what they're told to, and are happy about it as they're told to.
Penicillin never kills viruses; only bacteria. This is true of all antibiotics. Antivirals are a separate category (and don't tend to work as well AFAIK).
Of course you will still need to trust others to reproduce results in areas with which you are unfamiliar, but this is still better than implicitly trusting peer reviewers.

Same thing with software security: if software is open source then I still need to trust someone else to determine if the source code is malicious, but it is better than implicitly trusting software because e.g. “a contractor has done a security audit.”

Basically I don’t believe you can truly trust closed-anything, especially scientific analysis. You need _less_ trust when the thing is reproducible, which is the best you can ask for.
Sigh, the word sop already has a verb form - you're making progressively less sense with each subsequent reply. If you want to "smith" a new expression, it might behoove you to spend more time at the anvil.
It sounds like there's a step missing from that flow - who makes requirements? Saying "I want something" is not a requirement, it's a user need. Not trying to be pedantic, but it might be the lack of definition around what a requirement actually is, that's causing the confusion and rework cycle.

A requirement is typically of the syntax, "{X} system shall {verb} {functionality}". For example, "The brakes subsystem shall convert kinetic energy of the bicycle into heat in the brake pads".

A feature request "requirement" is not a thing. The product team can request features, and someone (an engineer, or a PM typically) needs to create requirement(s) to capture the feature. As part of that process, there should be a back and forth between engineering and the product team to figure out what exactly is desired.
Meanwhile Apple always do the best (and their older chip like A14 is already enough in today IMO), Qualcomm often hits and miss. Their flagship chip made by Samsung fab is tend to be bad battery life and heat. SD888 to 8 Gen2 upgrade is huge than expected for me.

I would suggest you _not_ read it if you _don't_ want to learn how they will frequently have planes completely dissembled and repaired right under the eyes of waiting passengers. They even cover up company logos and plane identificaiton numbers so people like yourself don't feel unsafe in a recently repaired plane.

Planes you fly in will have many repairs. Standard repairs. One-off repairs. Completely custom engineered repairs.

An entire book of all the modifications from stock that has accumulated over the decades accompanies each plane.
Imagine an automated plagiarism detector that functioned by decapitating the student, putting their brain in a blender, and examining the results. Could any contractual release that the student signed make this ok?

You can disclaim negligence, but you can’t disclaim malice or recklessness. You might find that this contract is not worth very much, depending on the facts of exactly how stupid this software is and how hard the school tried to find out whether it was stupid or not.
That's right. Absolute best case scenario, we'd probably be looking at 2-3000 years to recover the amount of progress we've made in the past 250 years. Worst case, we're never again able to progress past 18th century technology. Fossil fuels are a hell of a drug.
I don't think the parent is correct in dismissing healthcare as a right, but to be fair, the rights they listed are 'passive' rights. They only require the state to not get in your way. e.g. you don't have a right to arms, you have a right to bear arms. If you can't get the weapons themselves there's absolutely no requirement for the government to give you some.
If Apple committed to releasing a full + feature-slim version of each iOS going forward, I'd switch to an iPhone tomorrow.

But that's a lot of maintenance burden, in exchange for slitting their own revenue throat. So hard to expect them to do it for altruism.
If maintenance can be somehow written off the taxes, there is an incentive to overestimate its cost.

Since this thing is unique, there's no statistics, and the cost can be declared ridiculously high. (Also an additional display of conspicuous consumption.)
Implicit conversions and multiple “nil” values are the root of your complaints of TypeScript. Dart improves on this, but adds OOP heft. Alas.

I think the market agrees with you as well. The going rate for a 512GB Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra in like new condition is somewhere in the £600-£700 region. The equivalent S23 Ultra, with only minor specification differences as far as I can see, is currently retailing at £1399. That's a gigantic depreciation for a phone that's only a year and a half old. Phones used to depreciate much slower 5 - 10 years ago.
And proportionally even more of that budget goes to the pockets of politicians' donors who own the companies that displace the nationalized NHS. Again, the argument is for nationalization, which is the opposite of the direction the NHS has been heading in.
To be fair, it does lend itself to study, and governments and scientists have studied it (which is how we know it's made up.)

Unfortunately, the existence of such studies alone will convince conspiracy theorists that the CIA has psychic spies and remote viewers everywhere.
> Try this: don’t upgrade your phone for five years.

It's not that people think they need to upgrade their phones every year, or two, or three. It's that the phones are designed for short usable life on hardware side, and on software side, neither first-party nor third-party developers give a damn about performance.
I suspect Square accepts the chargeback and passes it back to the merchant without dispute. Sadly, some processors find the cost of helping their merchants to be too high. I know Facebook does this.
