Uhh, they did a similar thing over there. Bigmotor https://youtu.be/ENl3eh1o-SM

Why should they do that? They should simply add more annoying advertising and other BS to their products, especially Windows OS. What are customers going to do, go elsewhere or switch to another OS that doesn't have ads?
I love Japan, I just wouldn't characterize it as a paradise. Though I admit your criticism is apt if we're purely speaking about pubic spaces.

I think most people are now aware of the yearly dolphin drive hunt in Taiji and how the whaling industry continues to harpoon hundreds of whales every year under the guise of studying their migrations, even with demand for the meat dropping every year.

Scroll down to the "pornographic censorship" section: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Censorship_in_Japan

Yeah, I'm American, but I never said this was paradise. On the contrary, I could give much better reasons why it's not than your example of open carry laws. But let's not play "whatabout", as your public spaces argument is legit.
This is not typically what is referred to by “unregulated market”. This is just people vandalizing public property who need to be prosecuted for it. There are no market regulations that can prevent this.

This was only relevant in the past when 3D APIs implemented fixed function vertex processing. Today this is just a contract between your CPU-side code and your shader code.

There are other other subtle coordinate system differences though, like the framebuffer and/or texture origin being in the top-left vs bottom-left, or clip space z ranging from -1.0 to +1.0 or 0.0 to +1.0.

I actually agree with you. My beef with billionaires isn't that they fly in jets or invest in companies that make cheap products. My beef with billionaires is that they by-and-large put money behind preventing the necessary climate action.

This is essentially a tragedy of the commons, which could easily be overcome if the right people got into power. The right people will never get into power, because it is against the interest of billionaires.
> The real question is: how does this deal with freeing allocations from a thread that exited?

I assume that they don't release the allocator assigned to a thread when a thread exits, unless that allocator is holding a list of zero allocations.

That sounds like the easiest part of all of this, TBH: A single extra line of code that, after performing an actual deallocation (as opposed to sending a message to perform the deallocation), the allocator checks that it has non-zero allocations, and that the thread still exists, otherwise it deletes itself.

I really wish RPi would come out with a truly HQ camera.

Their "HQ" camera is really a LOW quality camera with a shitty sensor that isn't even micro-four-thirds. The lens choices are abysmal. I want to see at LEAST APS-C or better yet full frame. Considering a full-blown mirrorless full frame camera costs $2400 it shouldn't cost more than $1000 for sensor only, and I'm 1000% willing to pay for a hackable, programmable full frame sensor especially for night sky photography that can accept the vast variety of full frame lenses already available.

There's the Sony QX1 which comes close to what I want but sadly they didn't continue that or produce them anymore.
I prefer the old Pan Yan Pickle, but it went out of production more then 20 years ago. It has more fruit (apples, sultanas) and a Madras-style curry sauce. So more like a chutney than a pickle or a relish (i.e. Indian origin or influence).
As far as I understood, this is because US carries throws unlimited SMS for free and data is costly.
In my country, it's possible to get unlimited sms but for additional fee on some carries (other carries just provide N SMS per month) and data prices are rather low even now.

I do not think “generosity” of any sort plays in here. They’re not considering leaving for personal reasons but deciding to stay to provide tax dollars to the state. They’re staying because they want to. They like it here, or it works well for their business to be here. I don’t see any reason to believe that generosity plays in to it. California, despite high taxes, is simply a nice place to live.

Speculating a bit here: Perhaps one could even create a JIT that generates different code for Intel P-cores and E-cores in the same process. However, that would be very challenging to get working if the OS can switch the process from one core to another at any time.

The runtime would basically have to detect which AVX-512 instruction has failed at any point in the compiled code, map the processor state to AVX-2 registers and jump to an equivalent AVX2 code path. It would probably be easier to build the implementation on software transactions that can be restarted at coarse granularity, i.e. something like STM.
Making a Website Is for Everyone
Video games with anti cheats don't normally run as admin. A service on windows is created by requesting admin once when installing the anti cheat, so that the service with a kernel driver can be loaded without admin.

Furthermore, it's funny when people cry about how kernel anticheats are invading their privacy. These anticheats are better secured and protected than 99% of the drivers for windows, which are FULL of kernel elevation exploits. Absolutely filled to brink. I could go into it more, but this thread isn't the place.

For anyone claiming any European country is "originally an ethnostate" I recommend zooming in a little and looking at cultural and language minorities, especially endangered languages. In many cases even people born in those countries aren't aware of all of them and would consider at least some groups "foreign" despite them having been around for hundreds of years and often only recently marginalized. This seems to be well-known in France and Spain thanks to the existence of separatist movements but the only thing people usually seem to know about Germany is that some people in neighboring countries speak German dialects because the borders changed throughout history -- and it's far weirder than that. Many of these languages go back to "travelers", which in modern continental Europe is now only associated with Roma and Sinti peoples.
I looked into this (de-DAWing) quite a bit too.

Ended up buying a Fostex VF160 EX, which is a beautiful machine, but huge. It's similar to the tape recorders except it uses a hard drive instead of cassettes and can write audio CDs with the final result.

The Zoom R16 / R20 is also pretty much the same thing except it writes to SD cards, is much smaller, and can be battery powered.

But in the end, the best of them all seem to be the Zoom H4N Pro / Zoom H6 / Zoom H8. They offer a "multi-track" mode which behaves in the same way, but... they are tiny in comparison and you can use them for many other purposes as well!

It's cool to bring back old technology, but sometimes you also need to KISS. These multitrack recorders are huge, while a Zoom H4N Pro / H6 is something that does the same job - and more - and you can carry everywhere in your pocket.

Because that kind of language is a distraction from the way that actively supporting Hamas to keep Palestinians divided even despite their terrorism and increasing capacity has long been the Netanyahu (and for even longer, Israeli) policy.

Heck, Hamas largely exists because Israel funded the Islamist network that grew into it to weaken the PLO's support among Palestinians decades ago, and supporting Hamas as a counterweight to first the PLO and later the PA has been a long-term policy that periodically blows up in Israel's face, and when it does, it becomes very important to distract from the policy that led up to it.
The grid is a natural monopoly, so it doesn't make sense to let private companies control it and a market wouldn't work.

> The last design plans I saw one could fit within a single city block, buried under ground with only 1 story exposed.

This is a completely unrealistic plan, designed to lure investors.

An SMR meltdown will produce enough radioactive contamination to make a small city unlivable, at least for a while. So you'll need a full containment building. You'll need emergency generators, coolant pumps, etc.

Then you have a question of security, an easily accessible reactor will provide a great target for terrorism. So you'll need a perimeter around it with armed guards.

Then there's a question of control. A working reactor requires at least two trained nuclear engineers on duty at all times. So each reactor will likely need around 15 highly specialized engineers. That will have to live within a commuting distance.

Sounds bad already. But that's not all. There's also a question of inspections, something like the NRC can be reasonably expected to regulate several hundred reactors. They are not prepared to inspect many thousands of reactors. And the last thing I personally want is a "self-regulating" nuclear industry.

Any _realistic_ SMR power plant will look just like a regular large nuclear plant, except that it'll have multiple reactor units instead of just one large reactor.
Why even allow taxis? They should only be allowed for very limited purposes. Like those with mobility restrictions and non-critical healthcare. Anything else complete ban.
> Let’s say we do that, use UTC everywhere. You live in London. It’s 3 PM. For you, that’s mid-afternoon. It’s your brother’s birthday. You want to phone him and wish him a happy birthday. He lives in Sydney. In a world without timezones, it’s 3 PM for him too. So you give him a call and start singing loudly when he answers. He’s mad at you because actually it’s the middle of the night and he’s sleeping.

London to Sydney is a poor example because it takes a very stupid person to fail to realize their _brother_ who is on the other side of the world isn't up at midday.

But how about New York City and San Francisco. People do that _today_, because it's 8AM in New York and they forget it's 5AM in San Francisco -- or reversed, and it's 8PM and 11PM.

Why is that a problem? Because people have to keep track of the timezones and then do the math (most people are shockingly bad at basic arithmetic). That's a problem _today_ that you are ignoring.

> Abolishing timezones doesn’t make coordination problems easier. In fact, it makes them harder.

You claim that but you haven't demonstrated that. And the evidence I've seen points to the opposite.

Three brothers, Tom, Dick and Harry all live in the same city, in the same timezone. They know that Tom gets up early and goes to bed early, Dick gets up late and goes to bed late, and Harry travels so God knows when he's awake. They _know_ this and don't call Tom late at night, Dick early in the morning, or Harry without knowing where in the world he is.

Now spread those brothers around the world and the same thing is true: Tom gets up at 1000Z and is asleep by 0200Z, Dick gets up at 1700Z and is asleep around 0900Z, and God knows about Harry.

No timezones, a single clock and much simpler arithmetic. This also makes planning meetings easier.

Timezones are a 19th century solution to a 19th century problem. They _FAIL_ at our 21st century world.
Why? I feel the more “accessible” 8 track products are usually good enough these days and it isn’t the aim of them to go up against 8 channels of Prism/weiss/Burl or whatever. And those high end convertors are often used in places where everything is at least very good to among the best (whatever that means), including the room and the operator(s) of the equipment.

Most of the rest of the chain would be a weaker link to producing a track including the person writing it, than some of the modern mutlitrack recorders.

I would focus instead on usability.

Kind of yes, kind of no. As with everything, their prices are a mix calculation. Meaning they charge what they can, with mass LEO launches being cheaper than high orbit scientific and government stuff. What SpaceX does in my opinion is subsidizing LEO launches using reusable rockets with Starlink launches.
Thanks for such a detailed reply. His (or other analog audio devotees') thoughts on the environmental impact and ecological footprint of tape recording would be really interesting to hear.

It is tempting to state "digital is more environmental friendly". But developing new hardware and software obviously bears an ecological burden as well, whereas that old analog gear can be used more or less "as is" for decades.

I'm interested in analog mostly because I feel DAW screens are tiring for the brain. And, as an occasional producer of a long-form radio program, I often think whether a show produced in a more "analog manner" (solely relying on my ears, not my eyes during montage) would have a different "feel".

For that reason, CLI-only software like ecasound or mixer4 [1] have been interesting to me for a long time; so far, during real montage work, I have nonetheless always opted for DAW-based solutions, or maybe simple destructive audio editors. Still like the idea of not having to look at the waveform for making my cuts, though.

> Not only are there enormous protections with the mis-use of one's credit card, but the 'password'/card number is randomly generated and not used elsewhere.

Not true. My mother got a free credit card that she never used and never even took out of her safe box, and a few weeks ago someone used that card to buy a Microsoft gift card. Luckily for her, she regularly checks the bank's statements.

I'm convinced there's a workaround to buy stuff using just the numbers, because that's how cards used to work a few decades ago.
As best I can tell, it isn't clear what the impact on cycling is. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicycle_helmets_in_Australia

I'm ambivalent. I personally think a helmet saved my life when I was riding in Sacramento but I ride much more slowly here in NL (about 8-11 mph). I wouldn't mind if helmets were normalized but (as noted at wikipedia) that makes using OV-fiets, etc. more of a hassle.

Certainly a helmet is a good idea when riding a faster e-bike.
Quick tip: You can still put your target keywords where you have zero to minimal experience in your resume/CV, just put it in an honest statement describing how much experience you have. In your case, you could write, for example, "X years of experience in HashiCorp Nomad and AWS ECS (Kubernetes alternatives for container orchestration)". That should put your resume/CV through the keyword filter without lying about it.
