Hey, do you know a good resource to learn how to compile a binary for Linux Arm64 that works in a Chromebook? I would like to port some C code I have that I produce builds for x86 and Amd64 debian using GCC 4.8 and an old debian, I am curious what has to be done to produce a binary that would run the same in Chromebook.
Sure, if DNS was always reliable 100% of the time.

Also, in our desktop/laptops, we set the DNS servers to an IP address, not to a hostname.

> Companies do pay for GitHub/GitLab/Perforce though

Those products also provide a huge amount of other value and functionality (though at a high price).

As someone who worked at a (mobile) game dev studio, this "what if Dropbox but Git?" product design really hits for me. Teaching our artists to use Google Drive or Team Drives was easy, but the functionality isn't there. Teaching them to use SVN was a nightmare (because SVN workflows are a nightmare) but the functionality is... also not really there?

Give me either a local installation that I can set up in my office or a local proxy to reduce download speeds (or peer-to-peer on local network, the way Dropbox does it) and I could see this being beneficial for a lot of especially smaller studios.
I think this is a major shot across the bow of Boeing management.

To me, the fact that there really aren't timely alternatives doesn't take away from the gravity of a major airline CEO saying this.

Bombardier isn't even in the business any more after a trade complaint from Boeing. They ended up selling the CS300 and the business to Airbus (which became the A220).
"Inclusive" but meaningless.

The Georgian calendar (at least in the numbering of years) is a Christian construct, and it therefore makes sense to name year 0 after the year of Christ's birth. Whether or not one acknowledges his lordship or whatever, you are still operating in the Western tradition which is impossible to understand without Christianity.

It's just petty power tripping. Some people have that need to feel superior by swapping the dating system to something meaningless and arbitrary. What makes this era "Common"? Presumably the birth of Christ, since that's still when you are setting the origin of years. So the rename is utterly pointless. It's still A.D and should be referred to as such.

I'd have more respect if these revisionists went full Jacobin and plonked Year 1 down as some new date, and named the calendar after something new.
To be clear: mainstream major media publications use anonymous sources all the time. The point here is that the whistleblower be talking to the Times or the Post[1] and not "View from the Wing". No one is demanding they come out in public to tell us who they are.

[1] And let's also be clear: journalists from both those organizations are surely on the phones full time right now trying to find dirt on Boeing quality processes. That would be a huge story if they could land it.
No, the recipient determines if it is harmful. Malice is characterized by intent.

Samsung should get the memory card slot back. Heck, I still miss easily replaceable battery from Galaxy S5!

In general, I hate how Galaxy S series is just becoming more and more like an iPhone. (Well, other than reasonably long firmware update support. Great job Samsung copying that!)

I used to have both Samsung Galaxy S and iPhone — but now it's just iPhone.

But yeah, DIY repair is great and there I wish Apple would follow in good faith.
Yes. The answer is a "config.d" directory, this has been known to linux package managers for a long time. It is the only way for multiple packages to contribute to configuration without fighting over ownership of the one true config file.
Yeah, I'm very sad that helm won. We do OSS k8s stuff at work, and 100% of users have asked for us to make a helm chart. So we had to. It is miserable to work on; your editor can't help you because the files are named like "foo.yaml" but they aren't YAML. You have to make sure you pipe all your data through "indent 4" so that things are lined up correctly in the YAML. What depresses me the most is that you have to re-expose every Kubernetes feature in your own way. Someone wants to add deployment.spec.template.spec.fooBars? Now you have to add deploymentFooBars to your values.yaml file and plumb it in. For every. single. feature.

It's truly "worse is better" gone wrong. I have definitely done some terrible things like "sed -e s/$FOO/foo/g" to implement templating... and that's probably how Helm started. The result is a mess.

I personally grew up on Kustomize before it was in kubectl, and was always exceedingly happy with it. (OK, it has a lot of quirks. But at least it saves you time because it actually understands the semantics of the objects you are creating.)

I like Jsonnet a lot better. As part of our k8s app, we ship an Envoy deployment to do all of our crazy traffic routing (basically... maintaining backwards compatibility with old releases). Envoy configs are... verbose..., but Jsonnet makes it really easy to work on. (The code in question: https://github.com/pachyderm/pachyderm/blob/master/etc/gener...)

I'm seriously considering transpiling jsonnet to the Go template language and just implementing everything with Jsonnet. At least that is slightly maintainable, and nobody will ever know because "helm install" will Just Work ;)

But yeah, I think Helm will be the death of Kubernetes. Some competing computer allocator container runner thingie will have some decent language for configuration, and it will just take over overnight. Mark my words!

Since it's paywalled, here is the summary from the (recommended) BrainPost newsletter:

This bit was particularly interesting:
"First, the authors found that more time in a waking state correlated with higher deviation from criticality (i.e., higher DCC scores) and more time in sleep correlated with lower DCC scores, consistent with their theory. Interestingly, the effect was greater when the rats spent more time moving during wake and the effect was absent when the rats were awake but in the dark. This suggested that not all wake experiences are the same and that more stimulation during a waking state can result in a greater deviation from criticality."
malicious

adjective
Having the nature of or resulting from malice; deliberately harmful; spiteful.

malice
noun
1. A desire to harm others or to see others suffer; extreme ill will or spite.
2. The intent to commit an unlawful act without justification or excuse.
3. An improper motive for an action, such as desire to cause injury to another.
They have to be extremely careful what they say.

Boeing is considered a strategically important business to the U.S. - they supply everything from airliners to bombers to spacecraft to cruise missiles. They also create jobs all over the place - taxpayer dollars are funnelled via the pork barrel to jobs programs.

The government cannot allow it to fail, and if Boeing looks bad, the government looks bad. Therefore anyone who makes Boeing look bad is an enemy of the government.

So - you end up with these noncommittal pieces. If they outright said “we are thinking of airbus”, you get the government banning the purchase of airbus aircraft, as that would endanger Boeing, and then you’re stuck with Boeing and the government wants to audit your everything and know why you aren’t standing in line behind the flag.

So the safe option is to make some noncommittal rumblings, and change nothing.
I recently had a problem where snapd kept sigfaulting and the fix was to purge it completely. It turns out that everything I had in snap was available in flatpak, which I prefer anyway.
My guess would be they're using green light, measuring phase with a 16-bit DAC, and implicitly fibbing about their signal-to-noise ratio. That's baked in to "up to".

I agree that core.logic seems to have found a sweet spot as a pragmatic embedded domain-specific language. If core.logic had tried to replace more of the Clojure functionality, or had tried to be a stand-alone Everything Language, I doubt it was have been attractive to Clojurers.

I also agree that having something similar to core.logic in many other languages would be useful.

Most miniKanren implementations in most languages were created in order for the implementor to better understand miniKanren or logic programming, or because the implementor wanted to experiment with miniKanren-related reseach ideas.

This split between a pragmatic implementation versus a small, simple to implement/understand/teach/hack implementation may be another legacy of miniKanren coming from the Scheme community, which has struggled with this dichotomy for decades.
> Yes, they are. There is a world of difference. In the West you normal people have so much power they do not even realise.

In my West people are jailed without trial (Guantanamo, and other secret prisons) or cases are fabricated to bring them to jail (Assange).

> I have lived in China as a privileged engineer/expatriate.

> Basically most people have no idea what a country without rule of law(like China) is.

So you give up priviledges to return to a country where the rule of law is observed.

> plan the sprints out 3 months

In an "agile" way, of course. You can be agile, you just have to say weeks in advance when you're going to be agile so we can plan around it.
Some background here: in the autonomous vehicles world, it's common to split things up into 'perception' (detecting things around the car and creating a world model), 'planning' (deciding what to do), and 'controls' (giving gas, brake, steering etc so the car smoothly follows the plan). Saying telsa is using AI 'controls' here is probably a misnomer, Musk's statement indicates they are moving the entire planning stack to a NN.

'End to end' is also a bit misleading, as this usually indicates that perception and planning are fused into one network. They aren't doing this (which is probably a good idea), it's only 'end to end' from the planning and possibly controls side.

Depending on your distro, the Firefox package you see in the official repo is ... well packaged by the repo maintianers and some distros will include customizations like adding in bookmarks to the distro's welcome/docs/pages/etc. Sometimes even more things like feature settings are changed. It is usually not anything major and usually things that you might prefer like disabling pocket, etc.

What Mozilla is calling out here is a seperate, Mozilla-direct repo. This means you skip the official repos.

Everyone should think carefully about what this means.
* In the ancient past, when dinosaurs roamed the earth, Ubuntu distributed Firefox as a .deb

* Recently (well, in the last 2-4 years) to boost the uptake of Canonical's "snap" packaging system, Ubuntu switched to only distributing Firefox as a snap.

* There are a lot of snap haters around. Not least because canonical fucked up the update mechanism in the first year or two, had a bunch of performance problems (now mostly solved?), and made a bunch of weird broken snaps for things like docker.

* An unofficial firefox package for Ubuntu was then created, so people who didn't want to use the snap could avoid doing so.

* By some accounts, Mozilla is keen on controlling the entire release channel, so security updates don't have to wait on volunteer maintainers. (IDK if this is true or not, but I've heard second-hand claims)

* This new package lets Mozilla release to users directly, and lets snap haters avoid snap without using unofficial packages.

It’s not evidence.

The dna draws the face, the face is back checked for a match, the match has his dna collected and the dna is compared. The process in-between and the face match isn’t the evidence.
Totally agree - just think it's important to work with statistically realistic figures when discussing these sorts of things.
> Any examples?

Pretty much everything that makes up "forensics", except for DNA analysis (and even that carries a huge asterisk). Fingerprints, bite marks, blood spatter... the list goes on. Drug tests are borderline - reliable drug tests exist, but police often use tests with much higher false positive rates.

Believe it or not, "police psychics" also exist[0], and are used to manufacture probable cause, so that also fits the definition of "used to convict people".

Forensic psuedoscience is widely known to be junk by modern scientific standards, but courts have stuck by it, in part because "that's how it's been done for decades/centuries", and in part because they have acknowledged that it would be too difficult to convict many cases if forensics were deemed inadmissible.

It's possible that most were made out of common materials. Only those made of something sufficiently resilient survived for us to find.
You're not even going to get a good lead out of this, facial recognition works on fine details, and guessing a face from DNA has none of that fidelity.

This is akin to: Police having grainy monochrome security camera snapshot of a suspect, putting the photo in a microscope, and concluding that the suspect has salt-and-pepper hair and a square pixel shaped face.

"fair skin, brown eyes and hair, no freckles, and bushy eyebrows" isn't enough entropy for facial recognition to work. Any entropy that any facial recognition would be operating on here is completely made up out of thin air by the rendering program.

I'd recommend canceling your Mig Switch order.

First and foremost, it financially supports some very sketchy players in the commercial piracy (under)world.

Secondly, it won't let you play homebrew games - only officially signed nintendo software.

Thirdly, you'll have to keep your console offline forever, if you plan to use it - you can bet Nintendo will start revoking cart certificates and banning consoles at the first opportunity (each genuine cartridge is uniquely identifiable).

We have completely free solutions to both """backups""" and homebrew. Your best bet is to find a cheap model with an unpatched bootrom, and your second best bet is to install an rp2040-based glitching modchip (or find someone to install it for you, if you're not comfortable with microsoldering).

That's far beyond the rate of inflation. Unless there are significant improvements to the house or the surrounding area, the value of house should not rise faster than inflation, at least not by some significant margin.
Here are some key revelations from the survey:

Financial well-being: Nearly 3/4 of the elites surveyed believe they are better off now financially than they were when Biden entered the White House. Less than 20% of ordinary Americans feel the same way.

Individual freedom: elites are 3X more likely than all Americans to say there is too much individual freedom in the country. Almost half of the elites and almost 6 in 10 ivy leaguers say there is too much freedom.

Climate change: 72% of elites – including 81% of elites who graduated from the top universities – favor banning gas cars. And majorities of elites would ban gas stoves, non-essential air travel, SUVs, and private air conditioning

Education: Most elites think that teachers unions and school administrators should control the agenda of schools. Most mainstream Americans think that parents should make these decisions

according to the guardian, in the uk, it's extremely uncommon (but not unheard of), only 1% of ped deaths involved a bike [1]. Motor vehicles are WAY more dangerous, and it kind of seems bad faith to suggest anything otherwise - cars are multi-thousand-pound metal boxes that routinely travel at speeds unattainable by all but world-record holding cyclists. The difference in kinetic energy between a car and a bike is massive.

It seems pretty logical to assume to me that you'd almost always have fewer ped fatalities if more people were biking instead of driving.

I remember that it required me to restart whenever I opened a new tab, or I wouldn't be able to use that tab. Anything in already opened tabs still worked.
Then I switched from Ubuntu to Debian and I also installed the tar.gz from Mozilla. As you wrote, it updates itself.

As a welcome coincidence I checked the version right now and the Help, About Firefox dialog showed me an updating status. There is a updates/0/update.status file in Firefox directory that had the "downloading" content. It's "applied" now. The update.version file contains "122.0" and there is a 20 MB file names "update.mar". The file "last-update.log" contains many "PREPARE PATCH", "EXECUTE PATCH", "FINISHED PATCH" lines on shared libraries file and other files. Apparently the new version is waiting in the updated/ directory.

The About dialog still reports 121.0.1 and has a "Restart to update Firefox" button. I'll wait to see what happens and how long I can keep using the current version before having to switch to the new one.

Damn, this is a really interesting statement from AMZN:

"The use of warehouse management systems is standard industry practice: they are necessary to ensure safe, quality and efficient operations and to ensure inventory tracking and package processing on time and in accordance with to customer expectations.”"

They're saying: human beings (warehouse workers) are not capable of providing adequate work without oversight by machines, AI, and other human beings. They may well be right.
Fun fact about getting rid of bitter taste in coffee is a tiny bit of salt, a cracker or anything salty, it basically prevent the tongue from tasting bitterness:"Adding it to coffee can actually cut some of the bitterness. In fact, salting coffee is a tradition that goes back hundreds of years in countries like Turkey, Hungary, and Siberia, and more recently, it has become popular in Vietnam, where coffee is combined with whipped salted cream or milk.

I prefer cold brewing coffee to get rid of bitter taste.
