Is this the company you want having a nuclear plant in CA?
Hmm, it's almost like treating the symptom instead of the cause.
This should be the least morally complex issue ever. The Houthi government was on the path to being a recognized state before they took a bunch of money and missiles from Iran to blindly fire at passing ships.

I know the world is not black and white, but you don't have to automatically take the side of the people who literally promise death to the Jews on their flag. The enemy of your enemy might be genocidal anti-democratic maniacs.
You’re subject to the same interest rates no matter what vehicle you purchase. Base model 3 is not any more expensive than a typical new ICE vehicle especially with the federal credit, plus you save on gas and maintenance.

Apparently repeated cycles of prolonged fasts can also trigger apoptosis and reset the immune system.

Same guy did a video about the Sesame Street Pinball Number Count song (one-two-thee-four-five...six-seven-eight-nine-ten...eleven-twelve)

The song is teaching children to count, but the rhythm is very advanced (7/4 time!) so trying to count the beats like a musician is just bananas.

The calculus for me is how likely is it to happen vs how convenient is it. The chance of me being one of the first people in the world to have their car ransomwared is pretty low, and if it happens I’ll claim it as a write off on my car insurance. If it becomes common maybe I pop the fuse for the radio. But today, it’s cold and I’d rather not sit in the car waiting for it to defrost
Or burglary. My understanding is robbery is theft that involves violence or the threat of violence. Burglary is theft that does not involved violence or the threat of violence.

On my home network I have WPA3 disabled because so many devices seem to do really badly at fast roaming between APs with it, so it's WPA2 everywhere for me. Someday?
I was hitting that bug for about 6 months, but at least for me they have actually fixed it now.
I mean I don't steal because I don't have to, not because of some moral drive to care one iota about the profits of corporations. No one is asking poverty reduction to eliminate crime but it's on the theory that for most people above a certain life comfort you have more to lose than gain by petty theft and you don't need to bother.

I think "give people something to lose" is an underused and underrated crime deterrent.

That's all good and fine, but it should be immediately obvious to anyone who can't install their software that that is the case.

I watched the Phantom Menace last night for the first time in like 15-20 years. It aged terribly. I didn't think about it as a kid, but watching it as an adult made it more apparent what those describing Jar Jar as a racist caricature were talking about. Also, I don't find "because the memes" a good reason to like a movie. I probably will never watch Ep 1 again - and considering I didn't even like Ep 2 as a kid, I'm not looking forward to that upcoming rewatch.
That was what drove me away.

The bloat of the JVM, and the implication of Java down the road, made me nauseous.
I think on Linux at least it freezes due to watching too many files using inotify to update its sidebar. I wish there was an option to disable that. Same thing happens with Sublime Merge. It’s unusable on giant repos.
It is not a lie, it just doesn't mean exactly what you want it to, and is certainly unintentionally misleading. You can work with code remotely on any machine.

As I understand it there were weird pockets where organisations went hard in to activeX. IIRC it was used heavily by the South Korean government, and a lot of internal corporate intranet projects for all sorts of things.

That obviously caused massive problems a few years later when Microsoft tried to discontinue activex and make IE/Edge a normal web browser.

Didn't Sun Microsystems outright do that back in the 90s? Straight up declared that their roadmap was to treat Moore's Law as a plan, rather than a prediction?

No, autoimmune means an immune reaction against a human protein (which allergens are not).

Thousands of gallons per minute is not much on the scale of the US.

The Mississippi alone has a flow rate of almost ~6M gallons per minute.

The US uses almost ~500M gallons of water per minute.

Nestle is a pretty large user of water and if it's even 5k gallons per minute that's 1 in 100,000 gallons.

That's about how much 24,000 houses use. On the scale of the US, that's not really a lot.

Yes, bottled water is dumb. No, it is not the reason the Colorado basin is going bone dry. And if you were building a list of reasons, Nestle wouldn't even be worth mentioning.
This story about a tire falling off is probably a maintenance problem though.

With some, yes. The really obvious ones are fruity vs the more aromatic spice flavours. I can't tell regions apart and I'm unlikely to pick up which specific fruity flavour a coffee is meant to have - stonefruit vs berry or whatever.

The biggest problem I have when trying to run blind taste tests is that different beans behave so differently that it's hard for me, with my low level of skill, to prepare them the same way. I can pack a basket exactly the same with a coffee of roughly the same roast put through the exact same grinder setting and then extract them for the same length of time, but one coffee will consistently come out underextracted for some unknown bean-related reason. In that case you'd just pick up the difference in preparation rather than the flavour of the beans themselves.
Smaller PRs. You won't miss mistakes if your changes are focused enough. No team I've ever been on has gotten mad about me breaking big changes into logical chunks whenever possible. You won't miss things in a 4 file PR, but you will in a 25 file one.

My other personal rule is that if I feel the need to leave a comment explaining a decision, it's probably the wrong one.

I don't understand this. Are you saying that SLIME/SLY debugging of SBCL in Emacs is "basically a CLI tool running separately in a window"? It is arguably the most powerful debugging experience available for any programming language. There is ton of documentation and tutorials available and it is as far from janky as you can possibly get.
With the latency + perfect blacks of modern OLED displays you could probably build a "fake" CRT with some purpose built image processing in to fake the look of subpixels etc. Stick it in a housing with appropriate inputs, have it curved behind a curved glass panel.

> who just happened to pick up fallen boxes

I wonder if any of those 'fallen' boxes were deliberately dropped in an area covered by CCTV just to catch opportunistic thieves?

It would certainly be a good way to catch one type of thief while entirely missing the biggest heists.
I have one very nice 19" Dell CRT with one of the later stage Sony Trinitron setups (i.e. completely flat screen) that I use with my vintage computer collection (old SGI, Apple, NeXT, etc. systems).

I don't use it often, but I have a moment of terror each time I pull it out to fiddle with something and it takes a moment for the picture to display. So far, thankfully, I've been able to follow that moment of fear with a sigh of relief.

I should probably keep an eye out for a few more decent specimens just to keep in the closet as back ups.
Suppose there was a country where individualism was prioritized. Having your own opinions, avoiding "groupthink", even disagreeing with others, is a point of pride.

Suppose there was a country where collectivism was prioritized. Harmony, conformity and agreeing with others is a point of pride.

Suppose both countries have similar government structures that allow ~everyone to vote. Would it really be surprising that the first country regularly has 50-50 splits, and the second country has virtually unanimous 100-0 voting outcomes? Is that outcome enough basis to judge whether one is "democratic" or not?
I used opera between 1999 ~ 2008. It was great and tons of features ahead anything else. It was also super fast – it was my favourite browser for older and underpowered systems. It is such a shame they did not open source the browser. I bet many features would be much more present in nowadays browser life. Just to name one, visual tab previews (currently only widespread in MS Edge) or the semantic relationship toolbar (reading <meta rel> tags) would still be amazing today.

eh, it's not stoping anyone at the moment, so really hard to agree.

But you should also consider GIGO when yo uthink about AI advancement. These systems need to keep feeding on data and it's been demonstrated they can be poisoned. So, a whole class of model is going to be forthcoming that is othro to the idea of "IP", in that anything that's not got IP is more garbage.

That's just how society functions and AI will function the same way, it's need we got to this point by brute force, but a real AI is going to need proper filters, even if these filters arn't of the [redacted] variety but the "do we really need the model to understand this inane tumblr chat about helicopter sexuality?"

Considering there were multiple zero days found within malware targeting Kaspersky employees recently, and the zero days used vulnerable secret api’s only known to Apple themselves, I would assume that Apple users (like myself) are not any more protected from anything.

I don't know where you're from but it wasn't just Governors Brown and Reagan who created the problem, it was the Psychiatric survivors movement which was against forced treatment and forced medication.

I voluntarily take my medication and look upon those poor schizophrenics on the street screaming at birds with pity and sadness because well meaning do gooders don't believe they should be forced to take meds or accept treatment of any kind (because freedom) so they are left to suffer like wounded animals on the street.

As someone who files with the IRS, I would prefer an easy tax code over an easy way to file.

Messy tax code = +time/money required, +scared will be prosecuted for messing up something unintentionally, +loopholes available, +hire some more IRS staff & police

Easy & clear tax code = -time/money required, -scared will be prosecuted for messing up something unintentionally, -loopholes available, -hire some more IRS staff & police

(apologies for those who make their living via our complicated tax system. If you're in the IRS, I appreciate those who have been helpful but like cancer treatment centers I wish there wasn't a need for you)
It's like trying to use a hammer to screw some bolts. The priority should be sustainable development. We have enough water, just not great usage. The water infrastructure we have today is aged and needs to expand to allow for the population growth the country has seen. On top of that, we are expanding cities in parts of the country where water is scarce. We are growing water intensive crops in parts of the country that does not have water for it. We are also mismanaging the largest watershed in the country: the Missisippi. Just focus on these problems than creating other problems with desalination.
I always find it amusing that people will give up tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of dollars so they can save a few thousand in taxes.

It really is awesome. I also enjoy the UI that allows you to side by side compare a stream and the difference is insane.

I have been meaning to see how well it handles streaming a desktop via moonlight to the shield to real time upscale a second monitor's content. I assume it's trained for video footage and not static UI components. The RTX windows drivers don't seem to upscale as well as the shield.

Most westerners I've spoken to think that even when a Western government does bad, there's probably good intentions behind it or at least more noble than any non-Western government.

On the flip side, even if you believe that, there's an argument to be made that if you live in the West then the Russians/Chinese care way less about you than the Five Eyes.
That gross margin is coming down as competition ramps up. They have two more years before Toyota rolls out new batteries. That doesn’t even include Rivian’s cheaper competition model which they will reveal in March. They have no FSD. They have no AI. They have no “robots”. All vaporwares. Doesn’t help public opinion of Elon Musk and Tesla changed dramatically in the past 24 months. Progressives rather drive ICE than a Tesla.

> As much as people have told me all my life that the profit motive makes companies compete to deliver the best products, I don't know that I've ever actually seen that pan out

Yes, you have; you're just misidentifying the product. Google, Facebook, Twitter, etc. do not make products for you and I, their users. We're just a side effect. Their actual products are advertising access to your eyeballs, and big data. Those products are highly optimized to serve their actual customers--which aren't you and I. The profit motive is working just fine. It's just that you and I aren't the customers; we're third parties who get hit by the negative externalities.

The missing piece of the "profit motive" rhetoric has always been that, like any human motivation, it needs an underlying social context that sets reasonable boundaries in order to work. One of those reasonable boundaries used to be that your users should be your customers; users should not be an externality. Unfortunately big tech has now either forgotten or wilfully ignored that boundary.

It's actually pretty simple using the check command [0]!

borg check --verify-data REPOSITORY_OR_ARCHIVE

You can add that to a cron job.

Alternatively, I think the Vorta GUI also has a way to easily schedule it[1].

I'll add that one thing I like to do once in a blue-moon is to spin-up a VM and try to recover a few random files. While the check command checks that the data is there and theoretically recoverable, nothing really beats proving to yourself that you can, in a clean environment, recover your files.

It’s cool that you’ve built it! It truly gets complicated, especially when at later stage you start getting venture debt (not safes), more demanding LiqPref and you’re facing an exit at a price which is not ideal.
Tbh I usually end up with bespoke excel files for each company to have a full understanding of waterfall for all parties and be able to simulate their payout and incentives at different exit price.

Can't agree more, but my opinion is sentiment-biased. I was a paying customer back when Opera had ads-infested free version (and these were some huge banners on low-resolution screens) and an ads-free paid version. Browser tabs were a truly magnificent invention and made Opera stand out.

Shame that the company wasn't able to keep up. They had some really fresh ideas on improving web browsing and it didn't seem like throwing money at walls to check where it sticks. At the time.
Yeah, their valuation being based on the assumption of infinite exponential growth was always going to smack into the cold hard reality of the S curve at some point. But Tesla could lose a massive amount of valuation and still be overpriced, especially compared to other large car companies like GM, Ford, Stellantis, BMW, and BYD.

The only thing saving Tesla from being absolutely clobbered in the market today, at least in the US, is the competitors doing some baffling and outright dumb things with their own EVs. Like Toyota announcing that they think EVs are a fad and aren't worth pursuing. Or GM ditching its only EV that actually sells for some vague promise of a car that is at least 2 years away.

I also think the lower numbers for last year are due to dumping tons of money into a truck platform that seems unlikely to be a good seller. I'm expecting that once you factor in all of the R&D costs the Cybertruck will be a net negative for Tesla with poor sales and low (for Tesla) margins.
