That's not exactly correct, and is merely a consequence of the fact that you are trying to use the pid provider. The issue that you're seeing is that pid probes are created on-the-fly -- and if you don't demand that they are created in a new process, they in fact won't be. USDT probes generally don't have this issue (unless they are explicitly lazily created -- and some are). So you don't actually need/want to restart your DTrace script, you just want to force probes to be created in new processes (which will necessitate some tricks, just different ones).
Which is interesting because after the fall of the Soviet Union, there was rampant fear of where their nukes ended up and if some rogue country could get their hands on them via some black market means.

Then through the 90's, it was the fear of a briefcase bomb terrorist attack and how easy it would be for certain countries, who had the resources to pull an attack off like that in the NYC subway or in the heart of another densely populated city.

Then 9/11 happened and people suddenly realized you don't need a nuke to take out a few thousand innocent people and cripple a nation with fear.
Sulphur dioxide. That's the thing that caused all the acid rain that was going to be the end of all life as we know it back in the 1980s when were still concerned about global cooling, right? The same thing that made it possible to practice the moon landings just downwind of Sudbury, Ontario because all vegetation was stripped by the fallout from the big stacks at the nickle smelters?

Yeah. Pump that shit into our atmosphere. What could possibly go wrong?
You’re gonna have to cite some sources. I’ve been looking and can’t find a single piece of evidence to back up your claim of union only shops in Michigan.
To the contrary Michigan was a right to work state until 2023:

“In 2012, Michigan enacted a right-to-work statute that prevented employees from being forced to join or financially support a labor union as a condition of employment”
Which means they can’t force you to join the union.

Maybe you’re use of the word “effectively” is meant to carry the weight of this oversight — although that would imply that, since the workers were not forced to join the union they did so of their own volition? Which I’m sure is not the point you are trying to make.

Where’s the evidence of the claims?
The Cass Review has also said that children should have easier access to cross sex hormones - they're considering removing the requirement for children to have spent time on puberty blockers before moving onto CSH.

The Cass review supports transition.
Contrarian opinion, but given the models have been poor at predicting the catastrophes that they typically claim, I’m hesitant to support atmospheric engineering to try and cool the planet.

Let’s not kid ourselves, global cooling is FAR worse than global warming. Ice ages are no joke.

The risk/reward bet here is that we put jussst enough SO2 to drop by X degrees. I’m just not confident enough in our computational capacity to account for all the variables that could produce unintended consequences.

Tangential, but we can’t even figure out proper programs/legislation to improve education or reduce inner city poverty.

Investment target date plans are optional and still include the challenges of people executing roll overs, taking loans, cashing out with penalties, and actually choosing the right investment target date plan. Pensions are not optional, you can’t cash them out, you can’t take a loan, and they don’t require any logistics to maintain after you’ve moved on. The biggest flaw of 401ks is their optionality which allows present self to buy a new car making retired self homeless.

You (and I) aren’t the issue here - it’s the majority of people who are unsophisticated. They are autopiloting through life, assuming social security is a retirement plan or that they’ll save later when they’re closer to retirement. This is an awful lot of people. The truth is as a society we will be carrying them in their old age because we didn’t pay up front, instead we set up an optional plan assuming they would pay up front. Instead we will collectively be figuring out a way to deal with the massive underprepared aged population using present dollars rather than compounded dollars.
Wouldn't a regular mountain - that's not a volcano - be better? I assume when there's an eruption the values are adjusted accordingly:

https://www.climate.gov/news-features/climate-qa/which-emits...

> Volcanoes emit carbon dioxide in two ways: during eruptions and through underground magma. Carbon dioxide from underground magma is released through vents, porous rocks and soils, and water that feeds volcanic lakes and hot springs. Estimates of global carbon dioxide emissions from volcanoes have to take both erupted and non-erupted sources into account.

But there's still logistics problems when you have to evacuate the facility or the power supply is disrupted. Or is it somehow not an issue?
I'm pretty sure those disclaimers were not there when the lawsuit started a few years back. People generally thought privacy mode had a lot more capabilities than it really had, at least most layman people I talked with about it. Now it seems that has changed, probably because of the disclaimers.
When applying to MIT or Jane Street, or pitching FTX, or testifying to Congress, I'm sure he presented himself as one of the smartest people in the world.

MAAA! THEY'RE DOIN STUPID STUFF AGAIN AND THEY WON'T LET ME USE MY COMPUTER!
Repeating myself...

Just two examples from my prior gig (fashion e-commerce).

#1 Our hottest dataset (db of current products) stored in DynamoDB. Core dependency for all our code. Easily fits in < 1Gb of RAM. OMG, just make a hashmap. Over a year, I managed to persuade the team to start transition from DynamoDB to Redis.

#2 Tiny (vs micro) service that munged some URLs. Blocker for an important campaign. Prior team of 4 churned for a year, was no closer to delivery. Spring, ORMs, CI/CD pipelines, the works. I spent a week unraveling the requirements (repeated facepalm). A second week banging out a trivial nodejs thing. (My team preferred nodejs, which was their prerogative.) Really trivial. I felt so bad for the biz dev people who'd been dying to get this functionality for so long.
There are people who make their livelihood evaluating journalistic sources. I'd personally suggest seeking out factual news sources over editorialized news and straight opinion articles masquerading as news. Even those will have their biases on what to publish, but those biases will often be far more evident (if not overtly spelled out).

Ad Fontes' Media Bias Chart is a decent starting point. Various statistics gathering websites are other decent sources.
For a British kid from an impoverished background this was (early 70s) my Internet, vast range of content, intelligently selected and with capsule reviews/extracts of everything which was included.

When, 20 years later, I first saw the Web this was what I hoped it would become, I was disappointed.
So how is that different from veing a full time job in climate change as a scientist or policy maker?

Do you believe that Koonin wants a climate catastrophe?

If a person could be so monumentally blindsided to ignore a threat that will not only harm themselves, but everyone they know and care about, then could not others be too, e.g. Climate scientists?

Another question;

Accepting Climate Change as presented by the IPCC, how do we resolve the problem of the major oil producing states like Russia and Saudi Arabia refusing to give up the oil wealth which allows them to exist as they do, and the developing world states from consuming it? Green conversions are not feasible for large segments of the world population in anu useful time frame.

The net zero policies being advocated by the G7 nations are very expensive and handwave away big problems with "batteries will get cheaper, and the tech will improve" but they fail hard if thar doesn't turn out.

If we are really concerned about CO2 driven climate change the best solution is next gen nuclear power and mitigation strategies. Make electricity so cheap that no one will want fossil fuels if they can avoid it. Yes, they just started talking about nuclear power, but it's late. James Hansen was talking about it 20 years ago, it's not a surprise.

Rp1 doesn’t deal with video, and having two displays is very reasonable for all kinds of things, including display kiosks, points of sale, etc

I don't think any of those are going to ever work in America. America has practically perfected "pretending like something you should feel bad about never happened".

Anyway, any form of accountability that takes the form of "the person hopefully acts better" is not scalable. The only thing that is sustainable is a system by which the external world can hold the person accountable, by something approximating force: either the ability to compel them to change their behavior, evict them from the enterprise, garnish their profits, or arrest them.
Random unsolicited thoughts on SSGs (from someone unaffiliated with Stuart or Hugo):

Not sure if I’ll ever get to it since things are generally fast enough without it, but I’d like to build an SSG that supports accurate incremental rebuilds.

Lower hanging fruits for my current SSG were: caching syntax highlighting results and deferring link-checking.

For the record: my issue with Hugo wasn’t performance, but its rigid data model and ugly template language.
critique so radical it isn't philosophical, it's theological
Thanks for the perspective. The reduced size is also dwarfed by however the CO2 is being heated. If by concentrated solar field of many acres, than the size of the turbine doesn't matter on its own. What matters is if the reduced size leads to reduced complexity/cost/maintenance burden.
The ocean. It not only significantly simplifies nutrient delivery but eliminates the geography problem and can utilize the giant hypoxic dead zones in the ocean to aid in organic capture. It also provides a constant mechanism for supplying carbon as atmospheric CO2 dissolves in the oceans that has a positive feedback loop with the climate and houses plankton that is already responsible for the majority of the world's CO2 uptake. There we can store carbon in many forms including microorganisms and seaweed that don't decompose, calcium carbonate in seashells, and so on.

And it doesn't need to be 1000 feet deep, just a few meters worth since we only need to collect an equivalent of a fraction of the CO2 that's stored in peatlands - which cover only about 3% of the Earth's land surface to begin with*. The trick is to sink it in just the right way to keep it from reentering the carbon cycle.

We actually do have a lot of space that's already capturing far more carbon than we ever possibly could ourselves, the organisms filling that space just evolved to maximize survival, not maximize carbon capture to save humanity.

* Edit: actually that's just cold climate peatlands, I haven't seen estimates for tropical peatlands
The most ugly trick in Rust language
Not really. The ocean serves as a natural carbon sink to a degree- but this is acidifying the ocean. And some feedback loops accelerate rather than decelerate warming- such as ice loss decreasing albedo.

Life on Earth can adapt to a new normal, certainly, and on a geological timescale normal has shifted many times. Humans will adapt too, but will likely endure catastrophic losses on the way.
In all industries on average. Soon we'll have more data on the tech sector as more people unionize. As of right now, we can only expect the surplus to be the average surplus across industries.

Also, our work is much closer to the electrician than to the teacher. But it doesn't feel right to take this into account.
AFAIR this was post by Hector Martin but he didn't mention anything specific. He was mostly venting out his flustrations around review process. I tried to find any of those messages but mastodon search looks broken or I have no idea how properly search for specific user posts.
A lot of sibling comments expressing distaste for this.

I find it interesting that when people intuit how to manipulate others and do it successfully, without self-awareness, it's called charisma, or social intelligence. But when someone has to consciously learn how to do these things, and as a result of the self-awareness can articulate the mechanics to others, it's called sociopathy.
I agree with the general thrust of this, but libwebrtc has a tendency to have Google convenient defaults which are distinctly non obvious, such as the quality vs framerate tradeoffs being tied to what Hangouts needs to implement as opposed to useful general purpose hooks. (I hope they have updated that API since I last looked). Once you know how to poke it to make it do what you want, which tends to require reading the C++ source, it's definitely got a massive head start, especially around areas like low level hardware integration. Even bolting on ML inference and so on is not hard. The huge point though is everyone knows everyone has to talk to libwebrtc at some point, so it is the de facto implementation of SDP etc.

Curiously I was working on a webrtc project for about 18 months which also hit the wall, however, since then I have learned of several high profile data only libwebrtc deployments, which really just use it in the way classic libjingle was intended to be used, P2P, NAT punching etc. I'd go so far as to say if you don't have a P2P aspect to what you're doing with libwebrtc you're missing the point.

The big picture though is there seems to be a general denial of the fact that web style CDNs and multidirectional media streaming graphs are two totally different beasts.
Category Theory vs. Palantir
Very simplified (ocean-centric) homeostat:

The surface of the ocean is in equilibrium with the atmosphere, so increasing atmospheric ppm increase the ppm of CO2 in the mix layer (think of it as a gas sponge). The ocean buffers that co2 (carbonate/bicarbonate system), so the amount of carbon there is a lot higher than just 420ppm, and in doing so it becomes slightly more acidic.

As the ocean turns over (every ~5000 years), it brings that acidity down to depth where it can react with various forms of alkalinity that are at down there (mafic rock at the bottom of the ocean, sediment, etc), partially neutralizing it. It takes about 20 cycles (very slow) to do this, so ~100k years to return to a pre-industrial level. The pre-industrial ppm is defined mostly by biology.

A more complicated treatment of the carbon cycle:

Mauna Loa is not the only source of historic CO2 levels, though it has the oldest data. You can see all the other ones that NOAA keeps track of through their data interface [1]. Most of the data sources report very similar numbers, especially in the trendlines.

I want this printed and neatly framed. Where to order?
I assume you're looking for bigger companies. I've had plenty of great experiences with local companies where the person is likely the owner. And I assume you're looking for consistency too - almost every company I've had more than just a couple of interactions with has had at least one person that did their job well from a customer service standpoint.

Here are the most consistent ones though from my experience:

Chick-fil-A, especially when you go inside. And it's not just one - it's most of the ones I've visited. Every now and then you'll get an employee working the drive through that's not exactly pleasant, but still way above the average for fast food.

Publix, a regional southeastern grocery store. Every cashier is very nice and pleasant, the stores are clean and well lit, the baggers are always there to help you load up.

Amazon, the best customer service is not ever needing customer service. Any time I've had a problem it has been because I misread or misunderstood the product description, and there has never been a problem sending anything back.
An additional benefit of WebTransport over WebRTC DataChannels is that the WebTransport API is supported in Web Workers, meaning you can send and receive data off the main thread for better performance.
A few milligrams CAN kill you. This was the headline after many thousands of overdoses, it didn't invigorate the marketplace. Junkies knew of Fent decades ago, it's only prevalent in the marketplace because of effective laws regarding the production of other illicit opiates, which is probably the real lesson here.

It's all a big balloon - squeezing one side just makes another side bigger.
I don’t understand how to interpret this comment. Are you neurotypical or not?
Another victim of Vaclav Smil's intententional deceptions:

> But gasoline is just one small part of our precarious civilization. As explained in the book, How The World Really Works, there are at least four other things we need: cement, steel, plastic, and ammonia. And they all require fossil fuels.

Key falsehood: "And they all require fossil fuels". Luckily, no they don't.

At least this guy probably doesn't have the same reach as Vaclav's richest dupe, Bill Gates, so the damage will be more contained.

I've had good luck with Seagate Iron Wolves. They're a little noisier than others, but I've never had one fail. The Toshiba I've had in there for 3 years has also been fine.

After years of seeing many brands of drives go through good and bad years, I'm hesitant to recommend any particular manufacturer. Seagate had a rough stretch, but they seem to be pretty good right now. WD used to be great, and now I don't want anything to do with them. Anytime I look for a new drive, I check out the latest Backblaze report and hope for the best.
eBPF can drop data silently under quite a few conditions, unfortunately. And -- most frustratingly -- it's silent, so it's not even entirely clear which condition you've fallen into. This alone is a pretty significant with respect to DTrace: when/where DTrace drops data, there is always an indicator as to why. And to be clear, this isn't a difference merely of implementation (though that too, certainly), but of principle: DTrace, at root, is a debugger -- and it strives to be as transparent to the user as possible as to the truth of the underlying system.
No, they've been sold a line by those that are, and believe it because it matches with their pre-existing assumptions.

It's not either/or. At some point AI is likely to become autonomous.

If it's been trained by bad actors, that's really not a good thing.
Which industries? If you’re gonna point to SAG then sure there are union gigs but that does not preclude one from becoming an actor and working in non union gigs. Perhaps you mean non right to work states?
Popular or widespread doesn't mean it’s default. Religion is part of culture and that’s something that’s passed down person to person. A blank culture or no culture has no religion. Tabula rasa.

I’m not assuming anything, I’m not pegging the default discontent with death to a particular value, I don’t know what it is and it’s irrelevant. I’m just saying the some religions, with certain concepts of afterlife, like catholicism, would reduce that discontent.
Nope, you wrote murder, that's not a fact, that's editorializing.

This is a war, the first strike was the senseless butchery I described. The ideology that drew that strike calls for annihilation of all Jews. And yet, Israel doesn't indescriminatly murders civilians. Israel called all civilians to leave the bombarded area, Hamas called them to stay. you have no idea how many of those dead are combatants, So how is saying "murder of 8000" not controversial?

Israel has no obligation under any international law, or any moral obligation to give aid as long as the hostages are not released. Remember these hostages are as young as 9 MONTHS. Hamas have not let the red cross see them.
A person who says what you wrote indirectly supports Hamas by spreading their morally corrupt narrative.

Meta is in the business of class 9 “extraction of business information and knowledge” from users of the Threads app, and it can be plausibly claimed that either Meta’s Threads app is a source of class 9 business material at Meta, or that Meta must state formally that it does not collect business information and knowledge from the users of the Threads app, which obviously Meta cannot claim.

I can only reconcile this statement with mine if you are focusing on YouTube's intent and I am focusing on their effect. In effect, regardless of intent, they are obviously informing the wider world about this. For you to deny this seems to mean that you value the intent a lot more than the result.
