I was imprecisely using "captain" in the "person in change" sense, Chief/Commissioner of police would be the more accurate term, and yes they should absolutely be elected.

As for your alleged lesson in civics, the actual matter is covered by the 17th amendment to the constitution, which states:

> When vacancies happen in the representation of any State in the Senate, the executive authority of such State shall issue writs of election to fill such vacancies: Provided, That the legislature of any State may empower the executive thereof to make temporary appointments until the people fill the vacancies by election as the legislature may direct.

- U.S. Cons. amend. XVII § 2, emphasis mine

So then the question is how has the CA legislature directed the executive thereof to make temporary appointments? The answer to that lies in the California Code:

> If a vacancy occurs in the representation of this state in the Senate of the United States, the Governor may appoint and commission an elector of this state who possesses the qualifications for the office to temporarily fill the vacancy until a person is elected at a statewide general election...

- Cal. Elec. Code § 10720, emphasis mine

So we're left with a very simple question: Was Laphonza Butler an elector of the state of CA at the time she was appointed to fill the vacancy by Gavin? If not, Gavin was operating outside his authority as granted by the CA Legislature, and accordingly in volition of the 17th amendment to the US Constitution.

And the answer to that is very simple, a resounding "No":

> Butler is a longtime California resident but now lives in Maryland. She owns a home in California also. The governor’s office said she would re-register to vote in California soon.

Part of the reason I started photography is because I have Aphantasia, and when I learned that other people had visual memories, it cemented photography as an important hobby for me. Without the photos, I only take home a sense of knowing what I saw. Nothing visual.

I don’t think I would have invested in a birding lens if I wasn’t already deep into photography, but it’s possible to get a reasonable starter kit for $2K or less if the goal isn’t to make 30” prints.

It’s still nothing to sneeze at, but those $10K lenses aren’t necessary to get some really great results for hobby purposes.

The challenge of getting the shots is part of what makes the process enjoyable and the resulting photos extremely rewarding. It also lets me explore in far more detail once I get home. I brought home a 40MP photo of a cardinal fully filling the frame today, and it’s pretty incredible zooming up on the plumage, seeing the intricacies of their talons, etc.

With that said, I completely respect the non-photography approach and do think that the gear gets distracting at times.

printf is fast, but has safety problems. Also frankly I don't like the fact that the formatting and the variable the data comes from are separated and you have to count out the argument orders to figure which one is which. Python's fstring gets this right.

Ideally we want a democracy to be representative (in the statistical sense) and resistant to regulatory capture and low-information voting. Maybe it wouldn't work in practice, but it seems like we already have a system that attempts to tackle precisely these however flawed it may be: jury duty. Perhaps it could be applied to things like voting.
What good would ZFS be without that?

The key differences are in two places:

1. Every administration task for ZFS is done online. You don't need to take your pool offline just to check for errors and repair them (if possible). (Mind that on FreeBSD, UFS can usually have a fsck done in the background while the file system is in-use. Just about zero Linux-native file systems have this capability)

2. "other filesytems" can only hope to detect and repair inconsistencies in their metadata structures. If your files are corrupted, they can't know and won't tell you that they are. ZFS checksums everything, including regular file data. It will repair regular file data too, if possible.
No company is obligated to do anything. Such lack of obligation is not sufficient reason to praise companies that do the bare minimum to keep user data safe. Sure they aren't obligated but how on earth does that matter?
> having regulation that effectively only targets US Tech makes sense

I agree, this may be good for Europe in the long term. However, one would expect to see the protectionist measures coupled with similar measures intended to generate competitive native alternatives. Limiting the expansion of Boeing is great, as long as you have Airbus. Without Airbus, you're starting to make some real compromises.

> to anyone who thinks the US isn't doing the exact same thing

US is currently playing both sides of this in the chip space in an attempt to wrestle some of the power back from China. Unlike the DMA, the US effort is putting a lot of money on the line to help build local alternatives.

IIRC Cliqz was an EU-financed search engine project that looked like it was going to be a contender, but I think Covid killed it. Projects like that could be the way.
> Of course you could just use good old C printf

The fun thing with printf is that variadic functions cannot handle C++ classes. In the past was doubly fun because compilers proactively compiled an error into the binary instead of raising an error at compile time. So any forgotten c_str() became a crash waiting to happen.

C Printf never was, never could be and never will be a suitable way to output data from C++. Now excuse me while I go through the list of thousands of predefined format macros to find out which I need to use to output a uint_fast16_t without making the compiler vomit nonsense.

But here `<<` doesn't really feel like an actual operator here, just an ordinary separator like `,`. (Of course, `,` is actually an operator in C++. But anyway.) It is just completely alien to other existing C++ conventions before and after that.
the sounds for man, and the word man can be mapped. The concept of man can be mapped from English to Chinese. Given enough of these clues, and a large enough data set it's not shocking that models get decent at inference between languages.

You're thinking of Cruise. Waymo has not scaled back in any way, and in fact is in the process of expanding to LA with a limited pilot through the winter.

I don't think the fact that some of the first people on the team had worked together previously makes Waymo not "created at Google". The project they worked on before, the DARPA challenge, was not a commercial product, and at the time no company was seriously investing in self-driving cars as a viable technology. This isn't like YouTube, which was a well-known brand and viable business pre-acquisition. It was Google resources that made it possible to build the rest of the Waymo team, lobby governments to allow self-driving cars on the road, work with hardware manufacturers, and leverage the rest of Google's software stack, ML expertise, street view data, and datacenter capacity to build and train the driver.
If I'm not mistaken a very significant part of that is due to hobbyist interest in the chips, not in the least by Sprite_tm (also a HN user, now employed by Espressif).

The ESP8266 essentially started out as a wifi modem, responding to AT commands transmitted over serial, but going from there to a full standalone device relied on a lot of work by enthusiasts[0] and a leaked proprietary SDK[1].

Are you sure? "brute forces the problems by generating a million solutions and then tries to trim that down" isn't how I would describe the way a LLM works.
I guess I meant it as having a separate repair tool, but yes, you're of course correct.

To me it was always weird to not have a separate tool for being able to do an offline ZFS repair.

With regards to data corruption, I mean, this is exactly why I moved to btrfs, because it's able to catch bit rot same as ZFS.

I think ultimately this is why ZFS data corruption bugs always are such a big deal... It's because in a lot of tech circles ZFS is put on this infallible pedestal where it can never do any harm to your data.

I have opened basically every laptop I own(ed) to replace memory/SSD and sometimes other components. The easiest to work with besides framework are my beefy thinkpads. The sleek ones are a PITA.

My framework is both portable and the absolute easiest to work with. And the fact that the screen, keyboard, touchpad, battery are all readily available and easy to replace feels great.

Add to that the innovative configurable ports, and I can't really justify owning anything else.

Three things I hope framework addresses in the next generation: more max memory than the current 64GB, ECC RAM, dual USB-C adapters. If they address those, I might turn my workstation into a server and make this my primary machine.

How about a "continental law" solution? Usually you can't give up rights you do not have yet, so you can't sign a binding arbitrage clause if you haven't been wronged yet. This is in addition to TOS'es being restricted heavily by laws that define the limits of general terms and conditions (generally contracts that are offered to a large amount of people) and the existence of consumer arbitration committees that make it really simple for consumers to go after firms.

> We had server logs for analytics long before everyone started using cookies for that.

IIRC a server log that retains IP addresses is covered under GDPR and may itself require disclosure via e.g. a popup. (IP addresses are part of the protected class of personal data.)

More to the point, server logs != modern Web analytics. Modern Web analytics require someone to ingest lots of data and run an app to allow users to analyze that data. Common practice outside of sensitive industries like healthcare and finance means offloading all of that ingestion/storage/management/analytics to a third party, hence 3P cookies.

If any mobile phone that logs in can query and read the history, why cannot the server? What's the trick?

I wanted to boot my home truenas box off usb flash, but I also know how flakey usb flash can be, so I use a pair of drives in a zfs mirror.

I would not recommend this setup, Any real drive would be better. I just hated wasting drive bays for the non-critical boot/system partition. In my defense despite burning through many cheap usb drives I have not lost the boot yet, however I do keep a new spare drive taped to the unit.

I remember interlnk. It seemed like magic the first time I used it.
Absolutely. Something similar happened to a homeowner who automated their entire home with an Amazon account. Then Amazon for some stupid reason decided that he was racist because the delivery guy misstook the ring bell for being racist (?!). Amazon banned his account. And his entire home stopped working. It took weeks for him to recover. This is absolute bullshit. But Twitter has no chance anyway

mpv is the tool I used to demonstrate that software running in xorg has access to the screen's refresh rate... and that mixed-refresh-rate screens obviously work fine in xorg. ALL of the software I use is tear-free on ALL of my installed displays, not just mpv.

> Even you had to manually configure your system not to tear uncontrollably with a config file.

The __entire point__ of `/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/` is so that both distros and users can put configuration snippets in there to configure behavior for whatever hardware is currently installed. I use Gentoo Linux- a distro that requires that you supply your own batteries, so I supply my own config files.

> I can't get smooth motion in many applications on my machine because [I'm using NVIDIA hardware and have displays with unmatched refresh rates.]

> I'll be thrilled when ... Nvidia finally pulls its head out of its butt.

NVIDIA is okay if you're doing one of the very few things they expect you to. If you want to do most other things (like suchas have multiple displays attached to your video card that don't have exactly the same refresh rate) they are terrible. NVIDIA regularly goes off and does their own thing (usually very poorly), rather than use the thing that everyone else developed that works well.

The NVIDIA-on-Linux situation has been bad for at least twenty years. Torvalds' now-eleven-year-old "[NVIDIA is] the single worst company we [Linux developers] have ever dealt with ... NVIDIA: FUCK YOU!" remark [0] was motivated by legitimate, long-standing complaints that have yet to be resolved.

If you're using an NVIDIA card on Linux, and you're using it as a graphics display or 3D accelerator card (rather than -say- CUDA and friends) you're deliberately and enthusiastically plunging your hand and whole arm into a bag of sharp knives. It's not going to get notably better because it hasn't gotten better in the last 20+ years.

Yes, I feel well served and we should regulate even more.

And even though I tend to complain about UNIX like OSes, maybe they are the key to free Europe from US corporations operating systems, like a few other countries are already doing as well.

We should stick to international regulated programing languages and OSes, that free us from dependencies on export technology regulations.
You can spin it in a different way:

"We committed to meet all the regulation in each country we're operating in. Our teams are working on it. In the meantime we'll start in our domestic market, because obviously if there has to be a first country to open it would be our origin country, right?"
