You're still missing the point, as evidenced by that very comment.

I didn't leave. That's a misreading of "You can collect your prize at the door", which suggested that you leave.

> The mentality that developers are forced into this situation is deeply wrong.

There's no such mentality. You've invented that in your own mind. No developers are claiming that they're publishing in the App Store at gunpoint.

The point ought to be very simple to understand: the 15%/30% fees on paid apps in the App Store are subsidizing the costs for free apps in the App Store, and that seems like a bizarre, unfair situation, because many paid apps are published by little indie developers, and many free apps are published by giant corporations making $billions per year in advertising revenue from those apps that are free to download. I don't know why you insist on deliberately misunderstanding that simple point.
That is funny, (or not really), because I also have a cold with infection of some nerves and my brain is partly scrambled by painkillers. Hope you get well soon!

If the custom script you're running doesn't require your full shell customization to work, you can provide a custom shell command [0], passing an argument to not use your shell config.
For instance: `fish --no-config` or `bash --noprofile --norc`

This was a good read. Thank you for sharing.
I have some subscriptions that are managed through the subscription portal which is a convenient place to keep track of them. I can cancel renewals and the plan keeps working for the agreed upon period, except subscriptions from Apple. There it explicitly says that if I cancel renewal for a trial period, my access is immediately cut.

Ironic it is called Slack, and we are more productive when not "Slacking off."
I agree. Personally, I would happily fly on a 737 MAX, flying is something that never caused me stress, and objectively the risks of injury or death are extremely low. I was once on a plane that caught fire over the Atlantic (!), but it was contained and we landed perfectly safely.

However, I do get stressed out by other things, which are objectively speaking not so bad, and which don't bother much other people. That's human nature, that you will be afraid of some things and not others.

OP, if you were already taking psych meds to alleviate your panic, then in your shoes I would probably find a routing with a different aircraft. Whether or not your fears are "rational", they are real, and it is certainly rational and reasonable to look out for your own mental health.
Don't they test these methods on rats, monkeys or something?

> to have a set layout for printing or displaying on different devices.

That’s a horrible way to go about it. Already in the 90s it was clear that varying display sizes was a problem, and it has gotten orders of magnitudes worse since then.

The concept of a single set layout that is suitable for everyone is utterly absurd.
For the most part, these are all entities parrotting the same perspective and narratives of a commodity (i.e., current events). They hit the gas on the race to the bottom (read: went for quantity over quality), and now the bottom is in sight. Anyone who has taken a marketing 101 course would not be surprised.

The lesson is simple: If what you're providing is barely indistinguishable from what everyone else is providing then it will get more and more difficult to persist. There's simply no market for so many cookie cutter mainstream media outlets.
Of the ones you listed, consistency is the big downside for me. It seems like there's multiple options for everything in the Linux ecosystem. From the beginner questions (e.g., which distro), to the nerdy questions (e.g., systemd vs sysvinit), to the ones in between (e.g., vim vs emacs). I sometimes wonder if GNU Herd would have been better at this, since everything would be designed by the GNU folks for one unified ecosystem.

I don't think Valve will fix it TBH. They only care about Linux UX on their hardware, i.e. Steam Deck. I don't see why they would fund things like KDE, or features in the kernel beyond the ones that they need for their products to work. (Not that I think they're assholes for this; just that it's unfortunate)
The thing that immediately pops into mind is that learning to be careful when there's a moderate risk of injury makes people better at finding the limits in dangerous activities that they'll face later in life without going too far.

This is assuming that being careful and finding the limits of a dangerous activity without being injured is a skill that needs practice, but that doesn't seem like too much of a stretch.

You could test this by seeing if kids who had trampoline enclosures were less likely to hurt themselves seriously as an adult.
When I was a kid I helped setting up the computers for my father's small business. The disks did fill up because of documents. I think he counts as people too

My question with Babashka is always: why? Why force Clojure into something it is not? Why force some interpreter through the heavy GraalVM machinery to have a binary interpreter for a language that wasn't meant for this? Just because "the syntax feels similar"? Might as well just use Scheme for such tasks, and invest the resources into other Clojure projects - Clojure has a need for that.

Nonetheless it is an impressive achievement. Just one that I deem, like GraalVM's native compilation itself, an unnecessary one.

Not everything is lost yet. You can support small companies going against the stream, including Purism, Pine64, System76 and more.
That’s really useful, ta! The advantage of ChatGPT is that I can ensure a certain kind of setting or flavour, or push it to include particularly thematic actions or terrain. Or if the party arrives at a marketplace in a new city, I can quickly spin up ten characters with different backgrounds and potential side quests for them to talk to (and dig in deeper if something particularly fun comes up). I know this makes me weak and feeble but I only have so much time to prepare each session sadly (and my players regularly go off the beaten path).
Interesting game! If I'm reading the code right, the distance between two letters is the straight-line distance between the centres of those two keys on the on-screen keyboard? It might be good to make that explicit; I think the phrase 'a few keys away from' in the instructions had me expecting something different, like how many up/down/left/right steps it would take to get from one key to the other.

I understand. This regrettably happens 0.04% of the time. The average time to resolve it is 5 work days. In 22% of the resolved cases it took one day, 3% took a month, 1.5% is never resolved and the last time that happened was 16 months ago.
It's just a zip file. Under Linux/Mac/BSD you can trivially write a script which unzip's and outputs the ebook's HTML files into a large text stream and that output can be used as the input of a text mode web browser, allowing you to read ebooks everywhere with just two lines of code.
One cannot understand politics without philosophy, and I believe we are currently in a golden age of philosophy, with Twitter being the rough equivalent to Vienna's Café Central. I hope the current phase of freedom its going to last a while longer.

We will see how long the current system will prevail - according to Céline, a ruling class becomes parasitic if they no longer supply the military cadres, and that this is to be the only criterion. Looking at the US army recruitment numbers, it is clear that families who fought in it for generations no longer see a reason to do so, understandably.

The best we can hope for is that the phase of decline will be short, and that transfer of power will take place within the constitution, and not go off-script.
Another comment explains why the page is difficult to parse:

Yes. It means they are not "custom elements". They are basically divs.
Babashka is built using GraalVM. It allows you to write script-like programs in Clojure while having instant startup time.
Huh, interesting that this is the hill I have to die on. If I google "are trampolines death traps" the results seem to be about 50/50 yes/no.

Anyway, here are the benefits:

1) More freedom, as they can get on the trampoline from any side instead of just the entrance. This Makes for more interesting games on/around the trampoline.

2) Easier for a parent to get to them when necessary.

3) I also jump on the trampoline.

4) Without the net, there is more to the trampoline than just a place to jump (ties in with point 1). E.g. We had our family dinner on the trampoline more than once.

5) The increased risk makes it more fun. Kids have and enjoy adrenaline too.

To answer the drawbacks (increased risk):

1) I also got hurt falling from a trampoline once as a teen, that was because I behaved the way a teen boy would.

2) The kids know where the dangerous parts of the trampoline is (i.e. near the sides).

There were also similar systems for the Amiga, I think one was called VBS.
That is a meaningless distinction to someone who claims to be “a friendly of any sort”.

It could be of interest to 1) a very small group of friendlies with orthodox higher goals that are not aligned with the daily interests of 99% other friendlies, 2) a hostile, or 3) an even smaller group of friendlies who intend to use increased attack surface against hostiles.

I really suspect that group 2 is the most common out there, but that’d be impossible to ascertain. If I were in it, I would sure as hell not self-identify.

(Edited to add group 3.)
I don't think Apple will let go of taking some sort of a cut (and seeing where things are going, they will fight for each and every % with their claws and fangs) - and I think in all fairness it is justified to an extent, building and maintaining the platform has an inherent cost and in worst case they will somehow pass this cost onto their users. Alright, got an iPhone? $10/mo, or you can't install any apps at all.

I don't think a hypothetical Amazon, Google, Meta, or Epic store for iOS won't take a significant cut of their own - after all, again, maintaining a platform is work, and they won't do it pro bono (or they will, somehow again at the user's expense, see how Meta loooves to abuse their users as if they were the products).

I'm just speculating based on what seems to be Apple's apparent priorities, they tend to put Apple first, users second, third parties third; while other companies seem to have the latter two swapped around.

Think about what javascript exclusion means, and all the things a good universal ebook format needs to support. Nicely rendered math? Currently the best option to do that is embedded mathjax (maybe you could pre-build mathml and ship that, but I'm not sure that covers all cases). Graphs or charts? There are nice js libraries for that, while doing it manually means exporting images or svgs. Even static svgs are annoying and brittle to font-size changes without javascript to adjust the svg size appropriately.

Don't confuse what's necessary for standard fiction books with what the format should support.

JS and interactivity are fine, in technical books, reports, or niche fiction.

What I absolutely agree on is that epubs don't need is networking. Resources on the internet get stale after years or decades anyway, so inclusion of any network assets into an epub guarantees that the work will degrade over the years. References can be web links, but nothing from the internet should be embedded.

More than likely they are testing it on specific server setups with a dedicated GPU handling compute workloads. Think supercomputers and maybe cloud provider setups. That'd make sense if someone in AMD ranked the opportunities by $ value and started working down the list fixing bugs.

My anecdotal evidence with an AMD GPU is there are serious problems trying to use a graphics card to run graphics and throwing a few compute tasks at it - because X11 will reliably crash and the kernel graphics driver enters some sort of corrupt state. I think that is a use case that was beyond their design considerations to start with.

There is a hint that servers are targeted because they supported linux first with ROCm, and had a very tight support matrix of what OS they expected people to use. Unfortunately, this strategy generates a lot of bad publicity and I'd guess has trouble gaining traction because people can't experiment cheaply with AMD hardware. They're progressing though and even with a dose of cynicism about their wherewithal there is a lot in the pipe that has the potential to take on CUDA. Even APUs are promising.

I'm with you but when a feature branch is merged everyone at the time got the benefit of the git history of the changes in a nice logical way. The PR is approved and it's merged in but now the feature branch is deleted and the individual rational list of changes is lost when that feature branch is rebased on main.

I guess it's a lot of extra storage but if those branches were kept it would help illuminate the individual steps that benefited the reviewers at the time but now take additional archeology.
I replaced the Slack client with wee-slack [https://github.com/wee-slack/wee-slack]. It brings a much more "zen" experience to using Slack and better compliments my keyboard-centric desktop/workflow (e.g. clear all unread channel notifications? keybind! Jump between all the high priority/@mentioned notifications? keybind!) It also helps if you're expected to be available via Slack, since it can keep you showing "green" while you've actually been ignoring it.
How long ago did you try? Before or after official AMD support?

Like a lot of things, people tend to make a decision for horizontal vs vertical and then stick with it even as the platforms or "physics" change underneath them over time. Same for memory bandwidth (which people, like Sun, thought would remain more of a bottleneck than it actually turned out to be).
That's probably the real price if you add in the externalities like workplace and environmental regulations which don't apply to Chinese products.
That is the most convincing building I've ever seen.
Here are just a couple of examples related to having better information:

1. Take one of those most popular basic types provided by the C++ stdlib, std::vector<T> a growable array type and compare the analogous Rust type Vec<T>

std::vector<T> has a reserve method, but it's actually not equivalent to Vec::reserve instead it's equivalent to Vec::reserve_exact and there is no analogue for Vec::reserve provided, as a result without re-implementing the amortized exponential growth trick yourself you can't achieve similar performance benefits. The reserve vs reserve_exact distinction allows programmers who know something to help the type perform well.

2. The Guaranteed Niche Optimization. If Rust's compiler can see why type T doesn't need all possible bit patterns for its memory layout, then Rust guarantees that sum types consisting of a single value plus type T are optimised to the same size as T. C++ can approximate this using specialization for library types such as std::optional (but it typically doesn't) however it cannot provide the guarantee and in practice doesn't deliver the resulting performance.

Rust's &T has such a niche (the "null" pointer value), so do (Unix) OwnedFd and (Windows) OwnedSocket and the non-zero integers like NonZeroU32. Thus all of these types have the guaranteed optimisation when used in your own types and such sum types can be used exactly like "sentinel" values in C except that they're type safe so you'll write fewer bugs.

There are a lot of these leaks in the C++ language and standard library, and they add up. If you want to counteract them your C++ development gets slower and more expensive which wasn't a problem when there was no alternative, but now there is.
I have been trying different things for a few weeks now.
I agree pandas or whatever data frame library you like is ideal for prototyping and exploring than setting up a bunch of infrastructure in a dev environment. Especially if you have labels and are evaluating against a ground truth.

Exactly. Almost all dietary advice comes from personal anecdotes, because we have no studies. Almost none of it is backed by any high-quality evidence. Unfortunately, it spreads on social media.

It's actually really hard to study dietary impact on autoimmmune diseases. Dietary studies are hard, period. So they're generally not done. Almost all studies are based on self-reported questionnaires.

The nightshade thing has no real basis in science. I don't know who came up with it, but it may have been Pagano — a chiropractor who provided no sources for his claims, nor had any medical training relevant to autoimmune diseases. There's admittedly one study that shows that glycoalkaloids like solanines (present in nightshades like potatoes) may aggravate Crohn's disease due to intestinal permeability [1], but we don't know if it applies to other autoimmunes like psoriasis (where disrupted permeability is present in more severe cases [2]) or RA.

I can appreciate the "big pharma bad" point that drugs like biologics only treat the symptoms and not the underlying cause, because it seems like an insane amount of money is spent on drugs that basically "pave over" a pathology — like prescribing earbuds to drown out a squeaky wheel rather applying some lubricant — and not putting enough money into finding the cause. But even though it seems lopsided, until a cure is found, we have to be pragmatic; we need those drugs. (Of course, the argument also ignores the fact that most drugs in the world only treat symptoms. Nothing bad with that.)

I find speaking to an LLM as if it were a human to be far more effective than barking orders at it. Although this is less true of some models compared to others if they've been fine tuned to respond to that sort of thing. Even still in general I don't find barking orders to be very effective.
