I log traffic. I use log rotate with a 30 day rotation. No one can complain because it's gone within a GDPR compliant window of 30 days.
I believe it should work with any other Graal language (currently, JS, Python are the bigger ones and Sulong can run LLVM bytecode. There is also Espresso, which runs “java on top of java”, making it also eligible for these security boundaries).

I don’t think it is too commonly used yet, but yeah, it can even do stuff like limit CPU usage within an isolate, so it should be more than possible to limit the scope of such an attack.
Which makes me think... how much of the talent in middle management in FAANG could be actually useful in the world when applied somewhere else!
It makes sense to me: high ranking people often have conversations which are on the behalf (or at least implicate the future) of large groups of people. Thus a plural formal second person, as well as the "royal we".

(note that english aristocrats were often spoken of, not by given [or if they had one, family] name, but by the geographical entity that was the basis of their nobility)
Burning methane is not rational if you value living in a stable climate. The atmosphere doesn't care whether it came from a democratic or autocratic country.
The page also gets into the plural form being used for the singular over time (as is increasingly the case with English, at least in the US, when you want to avoid specifying a masculine or feminine third-person singular).
Yes, this is why economists recommend against too many rules and regulations.
Like in Spanish, where the formal second-person pronouns are the same as the third-person pronouns.
The people who advocate for censorship based on political opinions never stop at "censor genocide". They also want to censor a huge list of non-genocidal things. And my point is that these people don't seem to understand that they would not personally be able to make those case by case decisions - instead it's faceless bureaucrats who tow the party line.
I have a custom elf/linux distro.

Only the bear minimum to run steam and play native games (which already add tons of cr*p, 32bits steam client code, steam bash scripts... erk!).

My CPU, AMD Zen2, does get stuck in low power mode often, because I cannot get the right load profile to unlock it from that low power mode. I am testing with SMT off, it seems it does the trick: With SMT, it seems the spread of the load is so much efficient, cannot unlock! So I tried to "concentrate" the load with SMT disabled. It is not basic CPU usage but really something more.
I don’t think you need to like the people you listed (I, for example, hate Musk). But you seem to have no curiosity around understanding the value non-technical people can bring to a project or company or innovation.

You need both to do something great. And there’s thousands of Woz’s out there whose names we don’t know because they never met their Jobs.
Yep, aseipp, and we support the full gRPC interface for remote caching offered by Bazel, including the newer APIs.

Explained better than I could for sure. I find it very interesting how BuildXL and Bazel ended up at similar models for this problem. I don’t yet know the history of which informed which.

(As compared to, say, Gradle, which works based on input hashes instead.)
This.

I also bought the Cyberpunk bundle, which was great bang for the buck. I was also quite impressed by how well the Stadia tech worked.

However, due to Google's reputation I refused to spend any more money on the service, and would not recommend it to anyone, as it would all be wasted once they inevitably would shut Stadia down.

That said, I was pleasantly surprised by how well they handled the shutdown. If I'd known they'd refund people I would have been more willing to spend more money on their service.

I wonder why nobody at Google seems to realize or care that their poor track record is hurting their bottom line?
You should be very lucky to have 3 friends with their startups turning into unicorns. For most of us, crypto/stock market investment has more gains though.
Where did you get this number from for battery? All research shows that there is no such thing as moors law for batteries. Also the advancement of battery technology is highly challenging.
The US south still uses ma’am and sir as polite forms of address, but it’s also often used sarcastically (where the ma’am or sir is exaggerated: “Well, yes, MA’am!”)
I find it insane that in many interviews of "founders" it was common for founders to say their job was to raise money.
The Germans certainly don't want to export dirty coal power but my understanding was that they were essentially aiding France to overcome a summer of draughts which crippled the mono-culture in France.
> family members who totally transformed into different human beings in a good way once they were freed of the burden of caretaking.

The burden of caring for aged parents is heavier now. A primary reason is the absence of the extended families that we're evolved to live in. Modern pressures to scatter families means that a 12 person burden is being born by 1 or 2.

Similarly, raising children is more difficult than it was historically. Murdering our burdens may be an expedient solution but I feel there are less catastrophic ways out of this.
Hotswapping!
Yeah, those annoying "social/business norms".
> Imagine I win the lottery and hire really smart architects and tell them to make a revolutionary new building. They go on to make some amazing building that gets all sorts of awards and recognition. Is anyone really so naive as to suggest that I am deserving of any credit whatsoever? In the words of Urkel, "Did I do that?"

This example doesn't work, at least, since the industrial revolution. If an average person wins the lottery they would need to solve a lot (really a lot) of issues to move a business forward and most probably go bankrupt except if he/she puts the money in low risk financial instruments.

There is no "I do that" in the complex world of business. It is a nice Disney story with a few examples. Organization does the work and that includes anonymous engineers, not only CEOs and founders. The great ignition could start at a garage (e.g. Apple) but the road is long.

What a ridiculous take. Do you also want to be worked to death in a sweatshop because banning it would be too authoritarian?
People aren't posting on social media as much
I often remark to family and friends that the human race wasn't ready for the capacity for instant communication with 'everyone everywhere all at once' but perhaps that was overly pessimistic and we are developing that muscle. Or is the novelty just wearing off and there are movements to other platforms that aren't represented in the article?
"Dictatorships are bad" is not the game-over argument that it once was, maybe 20 years ago.

The Chinese aren't just competing against the US for control of some islands and sea lanes here and there, they are putting their political system -- which is de facto a dictatorship selected periodically by a small ruling clique -- as an alternative model to democracy. One that can compete with and defeat democracy, in fact.

And to be blunt, it's not clear to me that they are losing. We in the US have put ourselves at a disadvantage w/r/t China over and over again, relying ostensibly on the magical power of democracy to always win the day. As far as I can tell, it's straight-up magical thinking.

If we do not take China seriously as a threat to democracy, not just internally to Asia but as an aspirational model of society and the basis for legitimate government, I think we risk losing.

Why we would allow a propaganda outlet of what is effectively an enemy state to operate in the US, and why we would allow technology transfers and other advantageous trade arrangements, is mind boggling to me. Sure, the 'marketplace of ideas' sounds great on paper, but not when the other people don't believe in the same things. That sort of treatment -- access to the US market, both economically and that of ideas -- should be reserved for polities that at least have signed-on to the basic concepts that the US is built on.
You're implying that you knew how to hire and identify smart architects and provided them the right vision to build a good building.

There wouldn't be a counterfactual in your hypothetical scenario, but I'm confident that the difference between someone that got lucky and hired "smart" architects versus a visionary doing the same task would be drastic.

Money can only get you so far.
Interestingly the formality ladder flips at the very top of the hierarchy. Kings and popes must be addressed diffusely with plurals and layered references to official status (“Your Imperial Majesty”), but the Christian God above them is a “thou” in every European language.

(Useless trivia bit… Apparently Emperor Charles V invented the styling of “His Majesty”. Before him, kings and emperors were addressed as highnesses, but he wanted something fancier after being crowned as the Holy Roman Emperor in addition to the kingships he already held.)

Lets hope not. Everone whith basic math skills will understand that economics for nuclear make absolutely no sense... just do your research on the topic...
Almost every point has a counter by a different startup. The lesson is why didn't that circumstance work for you, not that it doesn't work.
You do a lot of hand waving to equate "from the river to the sea" with support for genocide.

It certainly could indicate support for genocide. It also could indicate extreme disapproval for the vastly disproportionate civilian death toll among Palestinians at the hands of Isreal in the wake of Hamas' attacks.

It appears to me that Israel's goal under Netanyahu is to suppress dissent, and label all those who oppose its actions as "genocidal" to therefore justify its indiscriminate violence against the people of Gaza.
Kind of like how Spanish flu originated in the US
Not sure you can block self hosted Hotjar type scripts if I just embed them into the JS bundle itself for the site. You could try disabling JS but most people won't, and I could also disallow text being rendered if there's no JS. Not that I would do any of this of course, since I like no JS sites as well as SEO for my blog posts, but it's a hypothetical of what one could potentially do.
I propose a theory by which insanity increases to the same degree that the nanny state introduces new safety laws, driving down gun and minor insanity. The only outlet is extreme insanity, and only those willing to break the rules will do it. But more people are willing to break the rules because more people are just plain sick of all the rules.
There is just a small problem: games for Linux often lose compatibility with newer versions of distros. Ironically, while the games would be available on Linux, they might not have worked for as long as their Windows versions.
Steve Jobs was a human being. No human should be worshipped.

Like all human beings, he wasn't a one-dimensional character from a crappy sitcom. He had negative and positive traits. Whatever one feels about him personally, it is absolutely a mistake to dismiss him. What he achieved -- multiple times -- puts him in extremely rarified air in the business world.
Seriously?

It feels like he just wants to do 10 things at the same time.
Fair point. Banning a social media platform because of topics discussed though seems like a dangerous precedent to set. Seems like a free speech issue to me though.

I think most people are aware of the CCP influence on TikTok. I hope reports like these make people question if they’re being manipulated on the platform. People should always question the validity of the media they consume.
How much money did you make though?
> As far as Altman goes, I put him firmly in the same camp as Musk. They haven't done jack shit.

What Musk did with SpaceX is in no way comparable to just paying an architect to build a building. Unless the entire biography from Isaacson was fabricated, he was extremely hands on in design decisions, company direction, and hiring.

If you think none of those were relevant to the success of spacex, you’re completely delusional.
Yup. So I explicitly deleted operators for °C, so things like 5_degC + 10_degC won't compile.
If you feel you need to go back that far it's perhaps a good idea to compare the way Jews and Christians were treated in Muslim countries with the way Jews were treated in Europe.
'Thou' is also used in English prayers ('Thy kingdom come, thy will be done'), as a mark of a personal closeness to God.

Put plants made from Lego next to it and see if it’s mimicking the physical surrounding as it senses the environment from the way the photons are hitting it.

What do you think the leader of multiple billion dollar companies would be doing exactly? People like Musk are like conductors of an orchestra. That's not easy, especially with multiple successful companies.
Just disable the feature the way the manufacture instructs instead of this random hacking? Why pull out all the engineering tools when the step by step is in the manual?
No, it's an attempt to force, and has the same flaw as all attempts to force, which is: the other side might just call your bluff.

Well, it's my site and I can host whatever (legal) content I want on it, it's akin to having cameras in my store. Similarly, people can choose not to visit the site.
Wait, out of genuine curiosity, who do you think I’m shilling for?
> A lot can be accomplished by skirting pesky rules and regulations. It isn't something commendable.

Well that depends.

Is the thing that is being accomplished very good and are the regulations bad?

For example, what if there is a law that was passed for the sole purpose of protecting a well connected monopoly, so that consumers have to pay more money, only so that this one monopoly could profit.

I'd say that such a law would be bad and should be under minded.
> I don’t want to declare “I’ve grown and changed and maybe gaming just isn’t my thing” because I badly want it to be.

Games are not your thing, whether be sure of being grown up or so etching else. And there is no intrinsic value of gaming unless you like it a lot. Forcing yourself into it makes zero sense.

Maybe, just maybe, it makes sense to try different things and chances are one of them will be it.
Furthermore, a soverign Israel "from the river to the sea" was a founding tenet of Israel's Likud party, of which Netanyahu is a member.

Something like this:

auto
operator"" _rpmPerVolt (long double x) {
return decltype (1_rpm / 1_V)(x);
}

I have a macro for that:

#define SI_DEFINE_LITERAL(xUnit, xliteral) \
[[nodiscard]] \
constexpr Quantity<units::xUnit> \
operator"" xliteral (long double value) \
{ \
return Quantity<units::xUnit> (value); \
} \
\
[[nodiscard]] \
constexpr Quantity<units::xUnit> \
operator"" xliteral (unsigned long long value) \
{ \
return Quantity<units::xUnit> (value); \
}

// Base SI units:
SI_DEFINE_LITERAL (Meter, _m)
SI_DEFINE_LITERAL (Kilogram, _kg)
SI_DEFINE_LITERAL (Second, _s)
SI_DEFINE_LITERAL (Ampere, _A)
SI_DEFINE_LITERAL (Kelvin, _K)
SI_DEFINE_LITERAL (Mole, _mol)
SI_DEFINE_LITERAL (Candela, _cd)
SI_DEFINE_LITERAL (Radian, _rad)

...and a loong list of other common units here.

The additional types are defined like this, in another file:

using Foot = ScaledUnit<Meter, std::ratio<1'200, 3'937>>;
using Mile = ScaledUnit<Meter, std::ratio<1'609'344, 1'000>>;
using NauticalMile = ScaledUnit<Meter, std::ratio<1'852, 1>>;
using Inch = ScaledUnit<Meter, std::ratio<254, 10'000>>;

And then I use SI_DEFINE_LITERAL (NauticalMile, _nm); etc.
Threads still doesn’t have a very good search function, which in my opinion was always Twitter’s greatest asset. Your feed always had a ton of randomness, but if you wanted to talk about something specific that was going on at the moment, you searched for it. Threads just gives a bunch of random results, some in the last hour, followed by 5 months ago, and then another from 15 minutes ago.
I didn't say "dictatorships are bad". Also, there's quite some area between allowing a propaganda outlet and banning it completely.

Then again, by the same token, why should the EU allow Meta to operate on its territory?
Potatoes themselves came from South America, so I don't know if that should really count.
I used to pipe to fmt out of Vim quite a bit. The gq reformatting improved so I just use that. It understands comments, e.g.

reformats to

and similarly with other kinds of comments.

Jfc. Plants aren't just for food. Lots of medicines are derived from plants. As indigenous people dwindle from the planet, their knowledge of useful plants disappears and their potential becomes lost on us.
Well, the internet could know the balance of your bank account at that boutique credit union, or which sex toys you’ve been looking at buying.

We do web hosting for businesses. We are careful to identify bots because we don’t want personalized recommendations in search engines, and don’t want PII showing up. Not that we put a lot of that in the site, but think about a Home Depot or a Best Buy situation. If you’re a human near the Minneapolis store, you want availability for that store, not the Detroit one. But corporate wants a bot to know that this microwave is something you in theory carry, but might have to ship from a warehouse. If Home Depot wants that, and our customers also want that, then probably a lot of businesses feel the same.
> more indicative of their relationship to power (largely subservient)

What are you basing this on? From the people I know in federal and state government, this is totally backwards.

> than anything to do with the accuracy of their reporting or integrity

Sure, whatever. The point is is there signal in the noise. And for those publications, there is. In part because they create the signal.

That said, they’re written for decision makers and the civically and commercially engaged. For casual readers, a less-frequent and more-entertaining format is probably a better fit.
Because people left. Of course, if you bomb an empty building few will die. We're not looking at averages here, we're looking at single incidents that caused many deaths.
> wonder why nobody at Google seems to realize or care that their poor track record is hurting their bottom line?

If I had to guess, these things are incredibly tiny compared to their main source of income (ads). As a result, atleast from a monetary perspective, it would basically be a negligible effect on their bottom line.

From a PR perspective, it might have a slightly higher impact as they gain a reputation for shutting stuff down, but with ads and the like being their main source of revenue, this doesnt necessarily have a massive impact
Public Schools in NYC are basically in the same boat as Public Schools in SF. Outside of a handful of exclusive programs, your only options are $60k private schools or moving to the burbs in Hudson/NJ/Long Island/East Bay/South Bay/Peninsula.

Public transit is better in NYC, but that's a side effect of density.
Depends how long the price is out of wack. How many alternatives do you have to switch to?
> Biodiversity does not directly benefit everyone

Just a bonkers nonsense statement, I am stunned by this perspective. Do you think you could live in an antiseptic paper envelope? Biodiversity doesn't "benefit" anyone so much as it comprises, entirely, the world from which we're inextricable.

Absolutely bonkers modernist anthropocentrism.
The marketing focus and pitfalls of corporate "partnerships" and the destruction of momentum that comes from shifting focus to chasing VCs all resonate strongly.

If I could go back in time, I'd have put 100% of the energy I put into fits & starts around partnerships (that unanimously went nowhere useful) into more baseline marketing around awareness and discoverability. I'd also have gone about fundraising significantly differently.
Oh geez I’m building an app for B2C: StickerDocs.com. I don’t necessarily want to go big with it but I sure as hell have point 5 on lockdown.
Well, yes: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_Israel, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Criticism_of_United_States_for... etc.

Does the existence of these Wikipedia articles now mean that I can call any information put out by Israel or the United States "biased content" and just disregard it?

If the overall concern is exposure to propaganda, why waste time blocking the holes it comes in through? Wouldn't it just be simpler to educate our citizens to identify propaganda? I would think this would also help to keep the powers that be in this country in Check as well... I find it worrying that we can see how effective propaganda has been at polarizing our country but no one wants to address all propaganda, just the other side's version. If this were to become a basic core competency in our education system, I guess it would undermine advertising as well, but IMO that would be a plus...
