Ofc those Russian people who are unhappy with the status quo in Putin's Reich will shut up right now. The propaganda that streams into the world is coordinated and one of the prevailing motifs is "united Holy Russia against all the enemies".

But Putin's mafia is still somewhat afraid to start mobilization in Petersburg and Moscow. Both cities are a potential mutiny threat, full of young people including students, and not easy to subdue if shit hits the fan.

Peterburg is the more global of those two, as contact with Sweden, Finland and Estonia was extensive prior to the war, while the location of the city with respect to the core of Russia is a bit peripheral. The ports of Helsinki and Tallinn used to have a thick schedule of ferries there.

Russia as a whole cannot become part of the EU, not in 30 years at least, possibly ever. But, in the improbable case of St. Petersburg seceding from the empire, we could integrate them a lot better than some Balkan states.

This works on BIOS PC's or many times on UEFI machines which Have CSM enabled.

But still have not found a way to boot Linux from Windows boot loader in plain UEFI. Where those exact 446 bytes are completely ignored.

OTOH, booting Windows from a linux UEFI bootloader is still fundamentally as easy as it was a few years ago once the Linux community had legitimately acquired microsoft-signed bootloader shims. Except since then these specific Microsoft-signed keys "became" compromised, and are presently in the process of being blacklisted[0].

"Early-adopters" were expected to manually update their motherboards along the lines published here:

https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/kb5025885-how-to-m...

Take a close look at the FAQ and Troubleshooting sections at the bottom of this article. And these are focused on potential problems with Windows itself. For Linux you need to interpret this information yourself.

Which is also the article where the expected deployment staging schedule shows that the blacklisting process will eventually be complete no sooner than October 8, 2024.

As time draws near, anyone who has not manually taken action will have their original keys be corrected in stages by being silently autoreplaced by spares. This autoreplacement seems to be occurring recently while running updated Windows 10 & 11 installs.

Looks like a new executable, SecureBootEncodeUEFI.exe, was downloaded during an update, and has been reaching the designated spawning date for many users:

I saw the CMD popup while I was running an updated W10 on an especially slow PC.

According to the calendar, this is a really drawn-out process, and until it's over[1] we will remain in a transition period where you never know which keys you need to have on your media in order for it to boot on any one particular motherboard.

>Fix will eventually render all kinds of older Windows boot media unbootable.

Not only "old" Windows boot media, Linux boot media is a target that can not be considered merely "collateral damage".

[1] It will only be completely over once all UEFI PC motherboards in existence have been updated to perfection. Well, really after that only once all UEFI-bootable media has been corrected to match perfectly as well. Haven't seen any articles on how this is supposed to be accomplished though . . .

Could very well be some subtle encouragement to discard all old media for some reason.

No, because that would be a totally different DB engine with different concurrency issues. Although that would also be super interesting to read, and my intuition is that because Aurora is a much newer DB, it probably has some subtle issues that haven't been discovered yet versus MySQL, which is quite old by now.

A few points:

* The Supermicro was on sale for around $500 a few weeks ago. That's an actual price new on Newegg. I had it in my cart (not with intent to purchase now, but spec'ing out for a future purchase).

* I've found proper refurbished to be at least as reliable as new, if bought through appropriate channels. What you're looking for is off-lease. Companies lease computers for e.g. 3 years, and then return to Dell. Those computers ran for long enough to be past infant mortality. That very much differs from consumer returns / repairs, which were returned because they were unreliable. I'd never buy a refubished Inspiron, but I very much would buy a refurbished Latitude.

* Part of it depends on what you're doing. I'm very much not performance-limited for most of the things I do. If a model takes 2x as long to run, I'll wait twice as long. No big deal. If a model can't run at all, that's where there's a huge difference.

A card like the A770, which is around $20/GB, is very exciting to me, if the drivers / documentation / etc. lands.

I'll also mention: The scaling here isn't quite as it seems:

1) Two 16GB cards with half the bandwidth per card will have the same theoretical bandwidth as one 32GB card in a faster lane. Ditto for bandwidth to VRAM. Once you start doing the math there, the cheap cards look very good, indeed!

2) If big chunks of data need to flow between cards, you're using much more of that bandwidth. The cheap cards look a lot worse.

A lot of that depends on what you're doing, and if I haven't made it clear yet, I don't quite know what I'm doing :)

> The only purpose of software is automation. There is ultimately no other goal. When your peers start talking about frameworks, easiness, a bunch of tools, or other bullshit realize they have absolutely no idea what they are doing.

This relates back to a course I took about software architecture. There's a guy called Johannes Siedersleben who separates software into three blood groups: A, T and 0.

According to his model, type A contains domain-specific business logic, type T technical code and type 0 is the glue. One should strive to keep these highly cohesive and especially loosely coupled.

I found this an interesting way to think about software and it made me realize that a majority of projects contain mostly type A code while most stuff university teaches is how to write type T code.

Genuine question, but how will Airbnb know this about you? Are you suggesting they've bought some 3rd party dataset that contains this information about its customers, or is somehow inferring these precise personality interests by looking at a customer's prior bookings?

I'm aware Airbnb lets you book 'experiences', which could be used to infer personality, but I'm not sure how popular these actually are (as an extrovert with extroverted friends in their lates 20s/early 30s I don't know anyone that has booked any).

I think it's possibly much simpler than we think - they can probably just look at your average booking size by number of guests (to determine how likely you frequently party), the type of property/location you've booked, and how close to NYE you've made the booking (a last minute NYE booking with 13 guests screams party).
you install it locally, but not remote. then you run commands that get executed remotely by way of some tools that get automatically copied to the remote machine via ssh.

Many, but I wouldn't say most. There are a few generally quiet areas here where I wouldn't expect loud NYE parties, but there are houses taken over for AirBnB use (one of which is near me, and he needs to get his lock-box fixed, I've been asked about it a few times which begs another question: why do AirBnB renters think a random local walking by will be able to help them get in?!).
> > I don't recall he ever did that.

> He specifically exclaimed "Fuck it, I don't care, we'll pay the fines" rather than having that adornment in the vehicle. Just because your literalism says that it's not, because there were no mashed fists against the floor, doesn't make it less so, particularly when the definition of tantrum is around outbursts of anger, often immaturely.

You could say it's an immature choice when you look at the consequences.

But it's not an outburst of anger. No clenched fists, no sweating, no crying, no hissing.

He didn't even raise his voice. Was he angry? Sure, he used the word "fuck".

Throwing a tantrum is an exaggeration. You can call me a literalist.

> A USB stick was plugged into the car. It didn't happen OTA, but nothing was touched or removed or installed on the vehicle. But I'm sure that would somehow be a recall still.

You have a good point. The difference between plugging a USB key and sending an OTA update is mostly technical.

The point of making a distinction: When you recall a car (by physically relocating it, to make it clear), you make it unavailable to the owner until it is returned, at great inconvenience to the owner.

If a service update rendered the car unavailable to a similar extent, I'd see the similarity better. I still think the word "recall" would be wrong, not because I'm trying to undermine the extent and severity of the matter. I'm sure we can come up with better, similarly critical words, e.g. "Tesla bricking all their cars for 48 hours".

Thanks for the response.

I didn't mean to imply that Lewis would speak out of "petty spite". Rather that his ability to reason appears to be clouded by his convictions about God and Christianity. For example, the "Trilemma" argument is full of holes and somewhat circular.

I'm still struggling to see how this notion of "devil" relates to the plot (specifically the ending) of Star Maker though. I googled around and did find a Reddit thread which raises the same question and describes the book's ending very well:

> The narrator comes into contact with a Creator of immense power who relates to our universe (and to several other universes that it has created) in the same way that an artist relates to a piece of art, without regard for the suffering of its inhabitants. The Creator is also depicted as pleasantly surprised that its newer universes have begun to exhibit emergent behaviours that were not intended at their conception. At the same time though the Creator is described this way...

> "Here was no pity, no proffer of salvation, no kindly aid. Or here were all pity and all love, but mastered by a frosty ecstasy. ... Love was not absolute; contemplation was. And though there was love, there was also hate comprised within the spirit's temper, for there was cruel delight in the contemplation of every horror, and glee in the downfall of the virtuous. All passions, it seemed, were comprised within the spirit's temper; but mastered, icily gripped within the cold, clear, crystal ecstasy of contemplation."

https://www.reddit.com/r/CSLewis/comments/mv2o9b/what_might_...

Perhaps Lewis interprets the idea that love is not absolute, or that the universe's creator is not a loving being, as being tantamount to "devil worship" ?

The onboard HDMI can even be used at the same time as the discrete cards monitor ports.

I feel the author's reactions are still in the range of behavior that shouldn't be considered abnormal. I feel that saying people have to go to therapy for expression negative emotions at such things, is unfairly pathologizing people. We are creating a homogenized "correct behavior" for everyone, removing any space for differences, that are a natural part of the human condition.

If we neutralized any "paranoia" over these dystopian cameras/posters/etc., then we would not have any resistance or protest in society, so things would get rapidly worse.

Many decades ago, having millions of CCTV cameras in London, together with posters encouraging people to rat on each other, would be considered absolutely dystopian, and there would be widespread protests and/riots if they were suddenly introduced. However, because it has crept up on the population so slowly, people became accustomed to it, and few now protest. Thus explaining the situation we are in now.
Yes it is, according to FAA recommendations.
We’re mostly talking at cross purposes here. My points were:

1. None of this has to do with tweets specifically.

2. The UK is no different in this respect from most other countries that aren’t the US.

You keep judging things by what you happen to have read in the news rather than actively looking for examples. This is leading you to make some inaccurate assumptions (such as e.g. that you can't be arrested in the UK for what you say in a park on a soapbox). Here are some relevant Google queries:

A quick browse of their Twitter profile (https://nitter.net/thecodrr) doesn't seem to indicate any "openly express support for Hamas", do you have any links to provide for any of these accusations?

> Coupled with the fact that he is a Pakistani national

Are Pakistani nationals particularly bad at security, or what are you trying to say?

The whole "zero-knowledge" confusion seems shitty at best, misleading at worse, agree. Should definitely be fixed as it doesn't seem to be about zero knowledge at all.

The upper crust of Manhattan is filled with left of center people who think taxes on the rich are too low, but they themselves aren't rich (because Manhattan is expensive and they spend/save all their income) and that Trump is bad because he raised their taxes when he capped SALT.

I have friends here who semi-jokingly call me a republican for being more center-left than them & not wanting to watch John Oliver, while they own $10M of rental properties & don't think they are rich. The kind of upper class folks who have laid off numerous people in their career without a hint of remorse, but also think the social safety net is too weak. People who vote for AOC but plan to move to FL for tax purposes. Etc.

You will look like a genius because you'll have an encyclopedic knowledge of everything. You will avoid problems early that come from the subtle knowledge every piece of tech has, buried deep in the docs. You will learn to solve your own problems faster rather than asking other people about something, because the docs often have the answer.

Read the source code of popular software you use (including the libraries of your favorite language). You can learn esoteric knowledge about programming just by looking at other people's code.
