> Or it would, if zfs could even have orphaned files, which it cannot.

If you use the zfs_recover parameter, then in a couple of cases, it will just permanently mark space as unallocatable forever because it can't figure out what owns it due to some errors, and you decided that was a better outcome than whatever error it was encountering. (That's what the "leaked" zpool property counts.)

Conceivably, you could write something to carefully figure out what, if anything, owns it, and allow it to be freed, or grab the contents of that region and drop it somewhere and then throw it out after the same safeguards, but by definition if you triggered that handling, something has gone wrong and you don't have a better automated intervention.

I wasn't arguing that ZFS has a case requiring orphaned files, but my point was that that was an example of "I don't know what to do with this, but I know enough to realize I can't decide what to do about this or just throw it out, so here, you do it."

Or if you, for example, wanted to do a destructive rewind on a pool because of some horrible edge case, then you might want some automated way to extract everything you're about to throw out, and that might require more work than just `zdb -R` if the pool won't import in the first place.

One example of something that would be useful to be able to do, particularly offline, would be when pools have some issue like spacemap corruption, you could conceivably walk the non-spacemap metadata to re-synthesize the spacemaps from whole cloth and write them out again. (And it's not an all-or-nothing thing, a number of versions many years ago would have very minor errors in how they computed spacemaps, which just mean zdb whines at you if you ask it to verify them even when the pool is offline, but don't interfere with the running otherwise.)

Could you convince the kernel code to do that for you on import if it's blocking import? Probably, though you'd probably want some out of band communication method to force it sometimes because I would bet there's any number of ways it might go awry and get too far into the woods of thinking it's "fine" before tripping some assertion.

Is it going to be faster to iterate on it from userland, particularly if you can simulate whether the import works from something like zdb with those conceptual spacemaps written out somewhere, versus rebooting on kernel panic? Absolutely.

But that's an example of a case you might have something so disgruntled it could be nice to reconstruct it outside of the normal import flow.

> All failure modes that can be automatically fixed, whether they are common or not, are transparently fixed without even needing to unmount anything.

`zpool scrub` doesn't fix anything except checksum errors. That's it. Any other class of flaw, it doesn't handle. I don't know why you think it does anything else, but I promise you, it absolutely does not.

Letting the structure emerge requires people thinking in depth about the underlying principles of what the code does or should do.

As for classes: They are merely a construct in many languages, that people have come up with for organizing code and in my opinion a very debatable one. Some newer languages don't even deal in classes at all (Rust for example) and with good reason. If one says we need classes for having objects—No we don't. And objects are a concept to manage state over the lifetime of what the object represents, so that might be a worthy concept, but a class? I mostly find classes being used as a kind of modules, not actually doing anything but grouping functionality, that could simply be expressed by writing ... functions ... in a module, a construct for grouping that functionality.

I think what many people actually want is modularity, which in contrast to classes is a concept, that truly seems to be well accepted and almost every language tries to offer it in some way or another. It is just that many people don't realize, that this is what they are chasing after, when they write class after class in some mainstream language, that possibly does not even provide a good module system.

My guess is it'll never have an official Linux release. Besides, proton is so good at this point that it will usually outshine a cheap Linux port. In fact, due to the lack of backwards compatibility in Linux land, the Windows edition of a game will typically keep working longer on Linux than the native port. It's a really strange situation.
> You can use tactics waaaayyyyyy beyond "make smash thing with sword."

While I think the OP is talking out of their butt, I kind of disagree with this. Smash with sword is generally the best strategy. The game is pretty darn easy. Playing with the duds of Wyll and Shadowheart give an early impression of Act 1 perhaps being very hard.

I think Edoras/Rohan might be a reference to Breton Celtic horse culture. The Lords of Brittany, the House of Rohan, traced their ancestry to Conan Meriadoc.

In Lotr, Meriadoc Brandybuck is the halfling who swears allegiance to King Theoden of Rohan in Edoras.

The analogy doesn't go too far though, as the Rohirrim came from the vales of Anduin, near the Grey Mountains, while Conan's settlement, if it happened, was on return from defeat outside Rome. He was from Wales before that.
In Australia at least, you need to maintain records showing testing of each batch and equipment calibration. Government auditors can come at anytime to review the records, and will shut things down if records are missing/altered/or lacking. Pharmaceutical manufacturers aren't constantly shutting down, so we can assume contamination is fairly low.

In a properly functioning country the responsible persons should already be imprisoned. Some governmental agencies were aware of that for at least half a year, but failed to act. The fact that source code was not immediately dumped and analyzed is the evidence of malevolence, corruption and intentionally putting people's lives at risk.

If you want to reduce the number of cars on roads - which is a sensible approach - you reduce the need for cars. The easiest is to not mandate people to work in offices where not needed. By slowing vehicles down you achieve a placebo effect since said vehicles would be slow anyway when there’s traffic, while they’d be needlessly slow when there is none. Spending more time driving slowly means the same amount of noxious gases being emitted - even if emissions per car are lower, given that they spend more time on the road you gain little benefits.

However safety benefits and noise reduction are an asset. But those can easily be reduced in better more environment friendly ways.
Wow; this looks a lot like the smaller PDP-11 minis from the 1970s: a stack of wire-wrapped cards with edge connectors plugged into a backplane, a few ribbon cables for other connections. Except DEC had a big team of engineers to do this. This is good stuff!
These things must go through a judge. Full stop. Indiscriminate spying is not the way to go.
I don't for a second believe the part about search warrants.

Judges often rubber stamp search warrants on the flimsiest of circumstances. There is no reason that won't happen here, especially since judges are humans and thus when you tell them you suspect someone of having child porn, most (but not all) will give you more leeway.

> The problem is that the CNAF deliberately targets small unintentional errors rather than large-scale intentional fraud.

The French welfare system is incredibly complex - see for instance this [0] simplified description of housing allowances which is 80 (!) pages long. This is not the most complex part of the system. With such a system, there are massive amounts of errors, both too-much-money-given and not-enough-money-given. The scale is so large that the French Court of Accounts refused to certify the CNAF accounts last year[1]: thoses errors represent about 7.5% of the CAF budget.

So basically the probability to have an error is just a function of how complex your situation is, and thus the "algorithm" targets more complex situations - change in your marital situation, having adult children (which may or may not need to be taken into account when applying for benefits depending on a bazillion variables), and so on, increases your probability to be targeted.

I actually assumed eating at home increase wouldn't be because of doordash, but because of improved quality and variety of frozen meals. I remember what was available when I was a kid was mostly mediocre to outright bad. Now a lot of things like quite good frozen pizzas and lots of entrees you'd normally get at a sit-down chain are available in the frozen food section. I'm a pretty poor cook but I can't screw up following the oven directions on a box and I'd get the result faster and cheaper than doordash.

It isn't as good as a home cooked meal but it is a lot better than the awful TV dinners I rarely ate back in the 80s.

That's tricky in Sweden, PostNord is by a far distance the best delivery mechanism (it customer service still sucks though), if you go far up North or rural many other delivery services are hard to find. There is a lot of things to be said about PostNord but its most reliable.
Elves do Fade and become disembodied spirits haunting remote places, maybe even to this day, according to Tolkien. Manipulating those spirits was the main reason Sauron was called the Necromancer.

It’s just a natural process that has nothing to do with “sources of magic”, Elves lived the vast majority of their time in ME without “sources of magic.” This conceit came from Rings of Power, I am pretty sure.

It's a safe assumption that such all you can eat sushi was of mediocre quality.

But, when it comes to the real deal. Sushi from a tier one or two Japanese sushi chef then the rice is actually the most important factor in making good sushi.

Discarding the rice would be seen as comparatively barbarian as dunking a freshly made piece of sushi by a good chef into this mixture of soya sauce and ersatz "wasabi".
They're still releasing patches, so this is an exaggeration. It's very playable, though.
At this point, I suspect that "AI Safety" has taken on the practical meaning of "regulations to make sure the big guys are the ones who benefit"... which is probably true anyways because of the capex needed to run these massive LLMs, but I am sure they would still like a moat or two against, e.g. the Chinese.

Otherwise I don't see what this means now; that the LLMs e.g. dont use racist terms? ok, great, nice, but how is that anything more than what you need to do on the web now anyway? how's that related to "AI" at all?

What I'd love to see is that this gambit backfires and instead we start talking about "tech safety" and that creates actual regulations with teeth that cut down the techzillas a bit (or a lot).

> a sympathy strike involves a union deciding to take industrial action against an organisation to support another unions industrial action

Interestingly that's not quite what's happening either. The workers in question are not in a union. IF Metall is the union being supported, and merely wants to represent them (more correctly, they don't want a non-union shop operating in their market).

Everyone is just nuts here. Tesla needs to just cut a deal here, but at the same time this kind of escalation, with all this economic disruption, all for the "benefit" of 160 (or whatever) unrepresented workers who aren't even part of the story and don't seem to be asking for union representation or higher wages or anything is just batshit.
I don't love this, but I don't disagree at all. I think many men underestimate just how much women crave and seek out beauty. Not just within themselves, but within the world. Men who have a similar eye for beauty are irresistible to a certain kind of woman.

I think we should stop stretching the word "clean" to encompass everything we approve and disapprove of in code. Your discussion of the underlying issues is perfect - the author's coding dilemma is a classic tradeoff between the complexity of repetition versus the complexity of abstraction. "Clean", if it means anything at all, is not the dimension on which these options differ.

"I collected the instruments of life around me, that I might infuse a spark of being into the lifeless thing that lay at my feet. It was already one in the morning; the rain pattered dismally against the panes, and my candle was nearly burnt out, when, by the glimmer of the half-extinguished light, I saw the dull yellow eye of the creature open; it breathed hard, and a convulsive motion agitated its limbs."

It's funny that lots of folks complain about the game being oversexualized while me and my partner - 120 hours in, in Act 3 now - somehow managed to completely fail triggering any romance subplots despite actually trying to raise approval of all the companions (okay maybe we gave up on Astarion). Not sure if it's a somewhat clunky split-screen handling of approval mechanics or just bad luck.

Attached: The New Science of Adult Attachment by Levine and Heller [0] - this was really useful for understanding relationships and how I and others respond to relationships, love, work, etc. was rather eye opening to me.

Boundaries by Henry Cloud [1] - this seems like a basic concept and I thought I knew about this but this book helped. I expect there are others so reading one or two good ones will probably do, but this is the one I read.

Man’s Search for Meaning by Viktor Frankl [2] - this is not about sex or relationships but about the meaning of life and why. It helped me think about how others view life and while initially I thought this was about professional and spiritual and intellectual purpose, I realized it’s also about finding and connecting with others and that helped me think about interacting with people on a romantic level rather than just with large groups or organizations. It’s a great book overall and probably fits into any person’s mind who is trying to figure out who they are and where they are in the world and where they want to be.

I’m middle aged and ended a decades long relationship a few years ago, so these books are helpful in updating and improving a worldview for sex and relationships.
