That's too bad. I only use Windows for games. Have not had issues with the script there. If you're forced to use Windows for work then it's worth finding the minimum set of crap you can remove while keeping things stable.

Good point. If you stick to text (like SMS was) that would be extremely difficult.

> The patch for the vulnerability was pushed to Github on July 5. Another actor exploited the vulnerability for a full two weeks beginning on July 11 before the official patch became available on July 25.

What's the point of a responsible disclosure embargo policy when the enterprise software developer alerts threat actors of the precise vuln three full weeks before they even begin to patch their customers' systems?
I did some googling about this issue. Roughly I searched: natural gas/solar/wind construction cost per MW in United States

I found: Natural gas: ~1200 USD/kW, Solar: ~1500 USD/kW, Wind: ~1500 USD/kW

Let us say that solar and wind is about 25% more expensive to build. All types have high up front costs, so interest rates will affect nearly equally. However, operations for solar and wind must be way cheaper over 10/20/30 year time frame. To be fair, I never read anything about maintenance costs for solar and wind. It certainly isn't zero, as the wind turbine will need periodic servicing, and the solar panels need to be cleaned.

I had this happen years ago, ironically I'm pretty sure they spent more hounding me for the next dollar than i gave them (like $25).
This frustrated me for years but I just grinned and borne with it because game compatibility and WSL meant I could do basically anything I wanted in Windows and it was what I knew.

Then one day WSL wasn't enough due to dumb compatibility reasons so I decided to dual boot Ubuntu.

Then very shortly after I just... stopped booting in to Windows for anything other than gaming. It was very strange. I've shitposted about year of the Linux desktop since I was a teenager but I never thought it would actually happen to me. It's not a buttery smooth transition - not by a long shot, but I'll take dumb Discord updating behaviour over random updates which make me panic that I downloaded malware from a Google ad. The time I spend on what I would consider dumb bullshit where I'm fighting the OS is about the same.
It is prejudiced. I assume Meta is going to make me the product.

Signal does E2EE. They have not yet done anything to jeopardize the trust they have earned. Some do not like them, and that’s fine. I have a different view.
I've been working on a silly personal website for a while for this exact reason: starting a webring. Specifically, I've decided to just reject replacing the social media platforms I've left. It's lovely to see others bringing back webrings.
How does your stewardship calculation deal with energy poor regions that burn pretty much anything, regardless of associated long term health risks? Or more generously, is no benefit realized if solar generated hydrogen replaces some useful crude oil derivative?

If being a good steward is your priority (and more power to you if so), then this is probably the wrong post to get maudlin over. I mean, how else will you power an autonomous ocean plastic-picker-upper? :)

The vast majority of them do tricks designed by other people (passed down from a mentor if you come from a living line of performers, out of books/video that genuinely innovative magicians share with the community, or custom made for a particular performer, that's where I come in).

My approach to creativity is to try and know all existing solutions to a problem (which can be tricky in a field that values secrecy but, as you develop original material and knowledge, you get noticed and start building a network of people with access to secret knowledge) then my brain tends to naturally pattern match and come up with new combinations of ideas. But it depends on the project, some things stem from the desired end result: an esthetic, an idea you want to have coming across, or a feeling you want to evoque.
Heh yeah we must have been off our game that day.

Fair enough. For me, I don't play enough video games to warrant using Windows, so I am mainly venting the frustrations of trying to help other people who I know are not going to want to use Linux or macOS. The video games I do play are on emulators, have native ports or run under Proton, so I'm covered personally. Absolutely would not work for people who are playing many of the latest AAA titles I know, but I suppose if you only boot into Windows for just that you probably don't have to worry too much about some other things breaking.
I mean, not everyone is going to find it interesting (and I already explained something in particular that's interesting about it -- the intersection of tech and mortality).
there is another important metric that most of these cost calculations ignore - the cost of reliability. Renewable generators create this problem due the variable and uncertain nature of their fuel. The cost of dealing with this is not paid by them.

These are fantastic points, all of which I have personally experienced as an Android user with many iPhone family members.

Apple adopting RCS won't solve #1, and is unlikely to solve #2, but solving #3 is a great start, and if the Apple faithful continue to give feedback to Apple that they care about fixing #2, we might see it one day.
I use a 600W Godox M600BI, it's great.

I found that 200-300W is about the optimum from a dollars per high quality lumen perspective. The SmallRig COB lights are great if you can get them at a discount.
PSA: While Google's Messages app previously always asked if you want to enable RCS (which I always declined), their latest October update enabled it without asking.

It also enabled read messages notification to the sender as well as realtime typing notification to the peer.
I leave Music running all the time. I have all the store and subscription features turned off. I just have the program loaded with all of my MP3s, something I've been doing since it was called SoundJam MP [1]. I have all my playlists in there and it works fine with the play/pause/prev/next buttons on the keyboard. I think they bug me about subscribing to Apple Music once every major OS update. I promptly say no and turn off any of the extra features they added.

I used vi and then vim for years (decades) before VSCode came along. At the time I learned vi it was worth the effort, because the alternatives were terrible. For me learning vi/vim has paid off, but I learned it over time, out of necessity, with some deliberate practice.

If you can always use an IDE then do that and don't worry about vim or emacs. There's no actual club of greybeard CLI hackers who will not let you join if you can't h-j-k-l everything.

If you need to work directly on a server over ssh, especially a server you don't control, you will probably have to use a terminal-based editor. If vi/vim is too much use nano.

Our brains can learn multiple editors, multiple programming languages, multiple frameworks, etc. I never understand the questions that pose a false dichotomy: should I learn vim or VSCode? Python or Clojure? You can of course learn them all. And if you use something every day you will get better with it. If you take the time to practice you will get even better. Whether that investment of time and effort pays off eventually, hard to say, but knowing vi/vim well enough to edit code has paid off for me and a lot of other people, so I'd call it low risk/potential high reward. I also learned VSCode well enough to use it, so hedging my bets.
"The title 'Performing Hysteria: Contemporary Images and Imaginations of Hysteria' already reveals the central focus of this volume: How are the current manifestations surrounding hysteria informed by historical performance practices and how do they, in turn, produce new ways of performing hysteria? To understand these hysterical images, I contend, one needs to locate them within their broader visual culture, furthermore drawing on the cross-disciplinary potential of performance studies, foregrounding images of hysteria in visual representation and
in textual discourse."
Correct, I’m a little shocked people actually buy non-wood hangers. Metal is just trash the dry cleaner gives you. Plastic is what people somehow end up with in college.

I've met quite a few graphic designers in my career. Though I haven't met any who were specifically doing 3d-style icons, they're all artists. Icons are just small art, and 3d-style icons were just a fad that fell out of fashion. I'd bet that nobody's career was staked on that niche.

At that point, is it even considered an OS, or a web app?
no, they do not. The vast majority of studies that estimate the LCOE for renewable generators consider only the spot price of electricity and OPEX costs. The cost of reliability is absolutely not factored into this energy cost.
Many people think we need a season's worth of storage. So by that measure a days worth of storage is moderate. And unlike a season, it is possible to have 12 TWh of storage within a decade or two. It'd be nice to have cheaper storage, but even 12 TWh of batteries plus sufficient renewables is cheaper than nuclear.

These "fundamentals" articles are always good to see more of. That said, I'm not convinced that arriving at two's complement via a long detour through sign-magnitude and one's complement is of anything but slight historical value. IMHO two's complement is easiest to understand by considering how a binary counter wraps around upon incrementing; if 1...1 wraps around to give 0...0, and then 0...1, isn't it obvious that if you go the other direction and decrement 0, 1...1 can be interpreted as -1? Then you split the range in half, letting 0 be on the positive side, and that's all two's complement is.
I don't doubt immigration, economic and other refugees are a problem, but they're a problem worldwide. Calling this an 'attack' is dehumanising. It absolutely is political for the russians to allow this, and antagonistic, but these are marginalised people being exploited as they seek safe harbour and a new life.

Merkel accepted 1.4m or so. She knows Germany needs labour. Estonia and the Baltic states have declining birthrat, are probably already below replacement rate compared to the 60s and will need labour. Sure, there are cultural identity issues.
Well, he's retrofitted batteries to a diesel, and ended up with a hybrid diesel / electric truck.

I have no idea about local terrain, and really, if the mill(s) are at the bottom of the hills, and there's no longer-haul trucking component to the transport from felling site to mill location that could be better served by rail, then I'll concede that point.

On the other hand, you used this guy's argument to explain why electric trucks can't possible work in this environment.

And then used this same guy's electric truck to demonstrate how they can.

Have an upvote. I preferred your summary. Thanks!
I only judge harshly because there's no absolute answer that applies to everyone. In your case perhaps learning vi/vim isn't worth the effort. For a significant number of other people the effort will pay off. You don't know. There's no "simple truth," just opinions and personal circumstances that change over time.
I think calling this reprehensible is a bit over judgemental. Melatonin is pretty safe.

For example, there's melatonin in both human and cow milk (more in evening milk, because infants don't have a day night cycle yet, and giving rise to the belief that smells like an urban legend that the old timey advice to drink warm milk if you can't sleep originally came from drinking night time milk fresh from the cow for the melatonin).

Also, you know what causes us to make less melatonin? Light. Blue light especially. Is it equally reprehensible to allow children to exist in houses with led light bulbs, which affects their bodies just as much as a pill?

It seems likely to me that the addition of a small amount of melatonin to replace that lost due to nighttime lights is a reasonable parenting decision. Of course there's uncertainty, but there's uncertainty about everything, can we please stop freaking out as much as we do, as easily as we do?
I understand OP but I haven't seen a single logging implementation that would inline the entire implementation in a macro and I suspect the author of the blog post hasn't either.

I'm 99.999% sure that kind of rubber stamp check can be automated. Then why have PRs for that at all?
If you're using AWS primarily as a place to run virtual machines, you probably should be somewhere else. The largest benefits appear when you primarily use cloud-native things: lambdas, sqs, dynamodb, etc. Of course these will constitute a vendor lock-in, but that's usually an acceptable compromise.
> I got my first mac through work this year and I hate the UI.

I am baffled by whoever thought having icons leap in the toolbar as a default behaviour was an OK thing to do. Drives me crazy when I use a Mac other than mine. I have lots of little issues with the UX. Play button opening Apple Music -- ahh! Running unsigned apps is easy but I always get caught out by the right click thing.

> you can install a dozen little extra utilities to customize your way out of most of these things

Usually paid for too. Using mouse on Mac feels absolutely awful to me without Smooze.

I wish there was a better laptop on the market, but despite the compromises my MBP is the best laptop I've ever owned it's not even close. Just like my iPhone, I think it's a brilliant device despite Apple being, well, Apple.
I'd say that does not make a browser young, otherwise you would have to call Safari young too.

The goal of Orion is not to go for maximum possible market share, but to be the best browser for Mac. This specialization may be seen as a sign of maturity and devotion to a well-built, native user experience.

On the other hand, browsers like Chrome and Firefox are not native on Mac and look out of place when used on macOS. They do not use native controls and do not integrate native services. This is exactly because they are cross-platform and have to carry the burden of being built by a committee on all these platforms. Their design language traces back to the first platform they were designed for - Windows. So at least to me, they look 'young' and unpolished on a Mac despite being 20 years old. I doubt they even look and feel native on Windows any more, they are kind of hopelessly lost in translation. If that is a sign of maturity, then they did not age well.

Orion may be called young for many things, but not being cross-platform is not one of them. We'd like to build similar native experiences for other platforms, but you have to start somewhere. (Orion dev here, if it was not obvious)

Some of this generative AI stuff is going to raise some interesting questions. Right now a lot of it is rough around the edges and distinctly inhuman. However, I do believe that even if we're not entirely on the right track, there's not much reason to believe a machine can't do human-like things as well as humans with enough computational power.

Here's my guess: I think that this stuff will continue to iterate until it's to the point where the amount of control people have over it as well as the quality of handling edge cases is sufficient to allow people with fairly unsophisticated tools to create things that look fairly high quality. And once this happens, people armed with amazing tools but no better taste than they had before, will flood the Internet with a bunch of tasteless garbage at rates never before seen. It hasn't happened yet, but I think this is partly an accessibility issue (not everyone has datacenter GPU access, there's still limitations in open models, and many hosted offerings are pretty limited compared to what local models can do right now in terms of tooling) but also it will make a big difference if we hit the point where it's really genuinely just not possible to reliably distinguish AI generated images and sound. Then, even if people wanted to ignore AI generated media, it would probably quickly become pretty difficult, and many people will probably not be honest if it limits their reach and potential.
