Ran into this the other week, the problem is vuln scan tools like nessus will flag it as a missing update but if you don't pay for ESM you don't get the patch even on LTS. I wish they didn't use security as a money making tool, this is exactly why I despise Azure.

If the only option is to pay, why pay a company that is using security to profit? Just get redhat and get it over with if you have to haggle with corporate purchasing, legal,etc... anyways.

When a package is available in any distro's maintained/mainline repo, users should expect security patches will be available as soon as humany possible for that package. If there was a premium repo, I get charging for that. But right now it is any packages and arbitrary CVE's, very upredictable.
No the Panama canal passes through freshwater, and you cannot let seawater enter for ecological reasons.
Techno-feudalism is more than that. I noticed in the early 2010s that a friend of mine was essentially a loyal vassal of a former EA exec "game industry legend", and followed him to multiple startups. There were a couple other such retainers, including the nobleman's brother and receptionist / HR manager.

I've never played in the start up major leagues, but it sure isn't a meritocracy in regards to who gets funding (or can self-fund). After working in and adjacent to multiple startups of this "game industry legend", I concluded that a lot of his ideas were crap, and his one successful startup had succeeded in spite of him.
Kind of obvious why, any of the react based frameworks all fail an audit.

This is due to a conflict of philosophies within the RoR community. Basically the clean code enthusiasts (which are also more likely to subscribe to DDD) argue that business logic should not be tied to which specific web application framework you use. So it should basically be in a separate codebase, either in the `lib/` directory or literally in a different project and included into your application as a Gem.

This makes sense from an objective perspective on what constitutes clean code, and I used to believe that this is what a really large enterprise Rails codebase should be refactored to eventually (although I never personally did so).

Rails offers an alternative approach to this however, that is less neat from an objective perspective, but actually follows the Rails principles a lot better and it's called Rails engines. Basically you split your Rails app up into multiple mini-rails apps for each domain called Rails engines, each has the same directory structure as a Rails app and you get the full benefits of a regular Rails app inside each. I used to think this was an ugly approach and I never even considered it, but now after over a decade of Rails development I've made a 180 and I believe this is the way to go.

The "clean" way forces you to construct interfaces between your business logic and the Rails app, basically introducing a lot of extra boiler plate. All for the perceived benefit of making your business logic be abstract of the Rails framework. This violates YAGNI of course, and by a huge margin too. I've never seen the business logic of a Rails app be ported to some other framework in 15 years, the most I've seen is reusing code in a Grape API that was mounted inside the Rails app. And what you give up is Rails' convention over configuration and its predictable structure, and the general documentation and knowledge of that structure that people can carry from job to job.
Blake3 is a clear winner for large inputs.

However, for smaller inputs (~1024 bytes and down), the performance gap between it and everything else (blake2, sha256) gets much narrower, because you don't get to benefit from the structural parallelization.

If you're mostly dealing with small inputs, raw hash throughput is probably not high on your list of concerns - In the context of a protocol or application, other costs like IO latency probably completely dwarf the actual CPU time spent hashing.

If raw performance is no longer high on your list of priorities, you care more about the other things - ubiquitous and battle-tested library support (blake3 is still pretty bleeding-edge, in the grand scheme of things), FIPS compliance (sha256), greater on-paper security margin (blake2). Which is all to say, while blake3 is great, there are still plenty of reasons not to prefer it for a particular use-case.
No this is all wrong. Fire crackles clearly depend on state. Nuclear decay is memoryless; decays are independent events.

> I recognize these games can be used and enjoyed responsibly, just not by me and that's okay.

Smoker before smoking is widely recognized as an addiction:

> I recognize these herbs can be use and enjoyed responsibly, just not by me and that's okay.

Ok, tbh, not all games and gaming are addictive. Though a big proportion is, with the rest being wasting one's life, as defined by a certain set of moral values. Though that is not yet a crime.
That's understandable. Though I actually can see some logic in it. It's got to be way easier to hire Angular developers than it is to hire someone who wants to eek out the maximum performance with this lightest-weight approach (and do it in a maintainable/understandable way).

I'll never say Vue/React/Angular are "light" and I'll fully admit we give up some performance for DX (and UX) but it's a tradeoff I think is worth it (I understand if you don't agree).

In the same vein, I know cross-platform frameworks like Ionic/Quasar are nowhere near as good as native apps. That said the skill set you need (and dedication to actually embracing the platform idiosyncrasies) to make _good_ native apps is not cheap or easy. Cross-platform apps might not fit in as well and might be heavier but they allow fewer people to do more with less. Heck, I have a side-business that relies _heavily_ on apps and it would not exist if I couldn't write them in HTML/JS/CSS as much as that makes some people's stomachs turn.

I’ve had a series of least probable things I think…
I fell head first onto concrete when I was little and got knocked out cold. But did ok. A few months later I got stabbed in the ear, and managed to survive albeit a little traumatised by the experience. A little while after that, I got hit by a car, and was up walking the next day. The doctors said it’s because unlike a lot of kids, instead of curling into a ball to protect myself from impact, I actually stood upright and took the impact in my femur, which didn’t break. It was badly badly bruised and it still hurt to walk, but I was all good. (I think I only stood upright because I froze in fear and so henceforth did nothing to protect myself instead of trying to run or hide or whatever).

I think if the last few years have shown us anything, it's that tech companies aren't good at making games. They just don't know how to do it.
This is simply the result of greed from the owners. McDonald's in Denmark has had lower/same prices as the US depending on currency exchange rate while giving full benefits and higher salaries to their workers. McDonald's Denmark is rated among the best places to work.

The difference is that the franchise taker doesn't get to underpay workers to prop up their own compensation. If they want higher compensation, they'll have to work for it and expand.
They could likely retrofit to do so but there'd be a lot of ecological concerns along with the infrastructure and energy cost of pumping billions of gallons of water from sea level.

Ecological concerns wouldn't just be pumping seawater into a large freshwater lake but questions of where to intake water, cross contact between the Atlantic and Pacific oceans there at a new location, etc. Not a trivial set of issues.

They’re colluding to keep low effort consumption down.

The only meme the meat based cassette tapes of the US accept is “market charges what it must not heat you can afford.” Inflation deflates low effort buying power.

CEOs are not ignorant of the waste generated by the industrial pipelines their companies rely on. It’s why Trump and My Pillow types are freaking out so hard. Drop off in retail can hit online orders. Subsidized leisure travel and replacing shitty cheap pillows often are under threat if people buy items that last and save for fewer, nicer vacations.

The android prior was Pixel 6 with its tragedy of a fingerprint sensor.

Aside from the larger size, for my use, it's no better than the iPhone XS I used in my previous Apple cycle.

I prefer larger phones, because I'm older and have big fingers.

YMMV.
Basically, if you're a coder and you make documents or images which are complicated, structured, data-driven or orderly enough to seem amenable to programmatic construction, then Postscript really is worth learning. It would be no problem to whack together an open source toolchain for making videos using postscript too, if you were trying to make programmatic 2D or 2.5D animations. Just sling ghostview and ffmpeg together and Robert is your parent's brother. Javascript with SVG or Canvas is certainly better if you need interactivity, soft realtime or web-only delivery though.

>We can have both, you know.

TFA is not about "having both." It is clearly about positioning nuclear as an alternative to renewable buildouts. This is in the title and also the text. And that's fine, because it reads like a nuclear industry promotional piece.

But leave that aside. Both my anecdote and this article agree on one critical fact. It shows up in this line: the age of the brutalist concrete cooling towers and highly centralized state control as the only features of nuclear power may already be over.

In other words, even these authors agree that the traditional (1970s-era) nuclear plant is already obsolete, and won't compete with renewables. The only tech that can possibly compete at this point is some kind of modular factory-built nuclear that can scale exponentially. Anything else is likely to be a very costly footnote, both here and probably in China.

The rest of the article pins its hope on the success of small modular nuclear reactors (SMRs) to be the scalable tech that can somehow compete with renewables. I've seen a number of articles on HN in recent days giving some pretty bad news about the state of SMRs. But at least an accelerated-development-of-SMRs story hangs together consistently, whereas a lot of wishful "legacy nuclear would be a viable contender but for those meddling environmentalists" Internet commentary just makes no sense in the face of the kind of massive scale that renewable buildouts are seeing.

I'm really excited by the current appreciation of CRTs. There is something so nostalgic about them that matches the warmth of listening to my favorite vinyl. I have had much more fun playing SNES and Genesis via my MiSTer on a PVM than I have had playing most modern games on an OLED display (although OLED is unquestionably beautiful, and I'm looking forward to the OLED Steam Deck).

My biggest concern with my current setup is what will happen when my PVM dies? Will there be anyone around to fix it? Will I trust myself to safely open it up and fix it? The PVM I have isn't _too_ large, but it's certainly more heavy and inconvenient than a modern display. I'm really excited by the excellent work towards recreating how good CRTs look to preserve this bit of history and also provide another artistic option for future games to consider.

I think it's due to a lack of freestanding compilers when the project was launched. People expected a new programming language from Niklaus Wirth but what they got was a language and an operating system, the latter which was too different from any mainstream system.

Studying and using this relatively low-level (but safe!) minimalist language which is not inspired by C has given me quite a few new insights.

If you're curious, the goal of the dots[0] is not a score but to create a portrait of your strengths and weaknesses, as an input to you for what to improve on, and to others for what to rely on you or not. The dots were along various personality attributes. For example, I was very high on "assertive and openminded at the same time" but very low on "organized and reliable." One obvious use of such things is that I can decide if I want to work on being more organized and reliable, or if I really need to be guard-railed with a pure project manager working alongside me.

I strongly disagree. They are probably looking at it from the perspective of their organization or division.

This should not an issue. It is entirely possible to write this without any dynamic allocation (other than stack) at all, or it could be done be done with an arena.

Maybe in some cases, but that doesn't even really matter since hardware support is poor.
In that case, CC the engineering boss while discussing with the IC; otherwise what's really going on is the nontechnical is trying to hide their impact on the IC's workload from their boss.

This leaves aside for the moment that I don't think nontechnical leadership belongs in a technology company.

You didn't actually miss much because even with an FPU, Quake wasn't really playable on a 486. It was optimized for the Pentium.
The Guidelines for Examination from the European Patent Office explain this in detail: https://www.epo.org/en/legal/guidelines-epc/2023/g_ii_3_6.ht...

The gist is a computer program must produce a "further technical effect". It can't be just running code on a generic computer.

It would have to be specific to the internals of the computer, like a method of securing a bootloader. There's a section with more examples: https://www.epo.org/en/legal/guidelines-epc/2023/g_ii_3_6_1....

I imagine it can lead to more questions than answers. It's complicated.
I don't think this is sustainable either, especially since most McDonalds are franchises and the "CEO" of their franchise probably only barely clears 6 figures.

I'm pretty sure the price changes are guidance to franchisees, and some will have prices that are more or less. There are also some corporate stores to consider (I used to work for a corporate store when I was in HS/first two years of college).

And why is this weird? Have you seen McDonalds pricing in Switzerland?
I’ve done it, kind of.

We would do retrospectives and sometimes we would tweak the questions we asked as a result.

Once we had two DevOps engineers who had a way of working that was causing problems. We added more questions to test for that missing soft skill to increase the chances that the next one would be better.

Similarly, had a bunch of people pass to a later round where we rejected them for the same reason. Added a heuristic question earlier on to scream for it in a first interview.
It would require about 14 MWh to lift a single ship to the upper level

Calculating the approximate wattage to lift all that water 26m:

9.8 w/s * 200000000 Liters * 26 m /60/60/1000/1000

200 000 000 liters was reported on wikipedia as amount of water used.

Its a very crude calculation probably of by quite a bit.

It's allot of electricity but the cost of that electricity would be essentially nothing when compared to what they charge. So I don't know why they don't install massive pumps. Maybe they don't want to contaminate the lake with salt water, but you would get small amounts of salt water with the current system to.
1. Drought refers to lack of fresh water in a particular region. Sea level rise has next to no bearing on whether or not rain is going to fall in <some particular region>. A higher sea level does not meaningfully affect evaporation and precipitation rates.

2. Most of the sea level rise expected from conservative[1] projections of climate change will be hitting us decades and centuries from now. Sea levels have only risen by ~8 inches since 1900, but even if we stopped emitting carbon tomorrow, we would have another 3 feet to look forward to by 2100, and 4.5 more feet by 2200.

3. Storm surges[1], caused by stronger storms, caused by climate change can make low-lying coastal areas uninhabitable, without actually drowning them due to sea level rise.

[1] Less conservative projections are dismissed out-of-hand as alarmist, but seem to provide a better roadmap for reality than fairy tales, like the 2C warming that the Paris Accord promised us.

[2] The sea level may have only gone up a few inches, but if an average worst-storm-of-the-year storm surge has gained a foot, it may be the difference between your house being fine, and having six inches of seawater in your living room for one day of every year.
The locks are filled with recycled water that is stored in water saving ponds [1], but this only reuses 60% of the water and it doesn't address the other issue that if the water level in the natural lakes in Panama interior is too low, then ships will have a harder time navigating between the locks.
