Eh, that's just an issue of term reuse being rampant in this industry.

In the context of servers, it's accepted usage to use "baremetal" to mean "running on the physical host's operating system" as opposed to in a VM or container.

But I recall the other meaning from OS class.
Hm... but in my example, in order for the Church to do that, they would have to formally excommunicate that individual. That isn't something done often, and doesn't really support what you seem to be saying it does (unless I misunderstand you).

The Church doesn't get to just point at a person who commits a sin and say that person isn't a Christian. There is a formal process for evaluating if that individual meets certain criteria (laid out in scripture). Its not done without serious consideration.

And there is a significant difference between saying that a person "isn't a Christian" and saying that some practice by a christian "doesn't represent Christianity".

For a practice to be considered "Christian" it should resemble the established and agreed upon tenets of the Christian faith, as laid out in the Bible and generally agreed upon by the Church at large.

Its like, I can claim to be a lawyer, but to actually be one, I need to pass the Bar. And a lawyer can be disbarred, if their actions show them to unable to execute the duties of a lawyer in accordance with the standards set by the state they practice in.

Similarly, a licensed Lawyer can claim something is lawful, but that be false when compared to the actual written code of that state. Someone can then come along and say that the advice and practice of that Lawyer does represent the actual law of that state.

----

Look, I get it. Its frustrating to see christians do bad things, and for the church to not take responsibility when it should. And I'm not defending that. It is also frustrating for the Church when people do not represent it fairly. This is a common issue with any organized group of people, because People aren't always reliable. A fact the Bible has much to say about.
It's "Aynesque belief" to recognize that removing the supply of parking spots will disincentivize people from driving into the city?
But it always is though. In a government regulated economy, there is regulatory capture and lobbying to create industry friendly laws that allow monopoly (aka our current system). In a fully free market, then there is no laws to prevent monopoly.

And by monopoly, I am also referring to systems where there are a few big players that just don't compete against one another, or one where there is a big player and a few small but inconsequential players. All of these result in the same effect as plain monopoly.
It rarely makes the news and it happens all the time, but usually because people don't see fraud as criminal until it catches up with them.
The lack of attention for iPad apps is infuriating. Instagram, for instance, uses the damned phone app. That’s insane.

I get it for small time apps, but Meta is clearly big enough to give it the little amount of attention it needs.

Nowadays, a single 2u server can realistically support 2x 100gig nics at full bore. So the biggest barrier is density. You can probably get 1pb in a rack now, and linking a bunch of jbods(well NVMEs) is probably easily to do now.
Is It a Crush or Have You Fallen into Limerence?
His list begins with The 10 Day MBA which is an excellent book I recommend highly. It gives a brief overview constituting 90+% of what you need to know. The other books on his list, many of which I have read and enjoyed myself, “merely” give greater detail on the material covered by T10DMBA (except macroeconomics which is rarely MBA-relevant anyway).

The book is humorous, but quite serious about the material.
But it's not dividends, it's increased salary, so it's still not net profit, it's pre-operational profit, which nobody looks at due to the importance of paying for labor.
Not always. For example, not when rural areas are excluded.

Also not if, for example, an ISP decides to expand to a minority area instead of a white area because of DEI policies.

In theory that should also be forbidden by the rule against racial discrimination, but in practice it's often not enforced that way.
Thanks.

I'm willing to check if it's my character though, that's why I asked.

> people not behaving the way youd want someone to behave given your estimation of their talent and/or experience.

Yeah. This could be related. I observed it more lately, thanks.

Perhaps I used some wrong terms with "showing authority". What bothered me then was that he started to give wrong dev advice on multiple occasions to other new people onboarding. If it was correct, I wouldn't have "cared".

Note : I'm speaking about only 2 occurrences in the last 6 years. But it's a very frustrating experience.

I thought the situation was more coined like the "expert beginner" though ( https://daedtech.com/how-developers-stop-learning-rise-of-th... )

Have you mentored?
What Am I Worth?
Genuinely, it hink they're an imagined practicality. We have a conventional family, conventional arrangements, and granted, I'd loath to buy an suv, out of spite I guess, but we've never been in a situation where our old small normal car isn't sufficient. We do all the things normal people do too.
Yeah I really had no idea what powers/options I had in the situation. The way they treated me made me seriously want to somehow get them to recover a LOT of money I had to spend (around $4-6k in impound lot fees they wouldn't pay). They pretty much went out of their way to make me feel like I should be grateful they helped at all.

I was maybe 23 and definitely didn't have money for legal help. I hate how I let myself get treated.
That also implies that trucks are much worse than cars OR suvs, and should be banned entirely as well.
> All of the comments speculating about it collecting your code for their training purposes or doing 3rd party AI things without your consent, or being enabled without any warning are easily disproven by a quick read of the article.

Because we can trust what corporations say, right?

Nothing has been disproven. And yes, the sole existence of the plugin is enough for IT departments to flag the entire IDE.

It was also not taken positively that Jetbrains decided to auto-deploy the plugin on installations of IDEs. Also, the plugin re-enabled itself after every update. This added to the paranoia in regards to the first point.
Begging for a tax increase as a proxy for societal contribution is something else.

I work 60 hours a week and volunteer for 20 more.

Not only do I want everyone in my "class" to contribute at least as much as I do, I want them to actually contribute something, not just voidposting about how they have too much money and wish the government would take more of it.
IDC about the twist. It's a standout to me on VIBE. Of what I've seen from MNS, it's my favorite.
It’s to get rid of SUV driving arseholes - not really emissions.

If you are driving an SUV in a city, there’s a decent probability you are an arsehole.
Note if you installed with a local account and expect Bitlocker to work: make sure to actually enable it. With a local account.

Bitlocker may state that it's on, but by default, it doesn't encrypt the drive unless you log in to a Microsoft account or manually add a key protector.

This is documented on a Microsoft site somewhere, but it's shit like this that make me wary of the "bypass Microsoft's shit" approach; the bypass methods often lead to behaviour that Microsoft never bothered to test and has side effects they don't bother to warn you about.
Some potentially interesting information I've just checked that might give a new perspective:

From an SEO standpoint, Quora is currently at one of its peak levels.

- It has reached 267 million organic visitors per month: https://i.imgur.com/899g3Jm.png

- Quora's organic traffic is quite diverse https://i.imgur.com/JfbYKH1.png

Google's helpful content update has increased traffic for sites like Quora, Stack Overflow, and Reddit. In many instances, I believe this boost lacks justification.

Quora's user experience is not intuitive. Although they removed the signup wall, which impacted their bounce rate and caused millions of organic visitors to leave their site shortly after clicking on a Quora result in a search engine, reading an answer on Quora now feels overwhelmingly disorganized.
I'll make you a deal in which both of us come ahead - pay my taxes for this year. I'll even go for federal only. If you're in, I can accept venmo, cash, btc or anything commonly accepted. Think about it - you get less money, as you wanted, the money go to the taxman, as you wanted, and I get a little bit for helping you.

Unless, of course, you, as usual, meant that it's me that is going to be taxed more? While you are already getting paid from my money?

Another way would be to ask for pay reduction. Same effect on the public money, much less friction and transactional expenses. I'm sure your boss can find a way to make it happen.
Perl5 it's used in OpenBSD base, and it has pledge and unveil support.
FWIW our car (2014 RAV4 EV) was totaled in California in 2018, and the insurance payout pretty much exactly covered replacing it with a near-identical new model (actually a bit lower mileage!) from a local used car dealer. I think we actually came out a few hundred dollars ahead.

We were insured with Travelers.

I’ve wondered since then if that’s how it usually works out, or if we were a lucky fluke.
How many insurance companies are under the same parent org as hospitals?

From the article:

>Tires release 100 times the amount of volatile organic compounds as a modern tailpipe, says an analyst.

If that's the case, the policy is still strange by giving electric cars a significantly higher weight limit, even though the difference in emissions is negligible.
Swapping the battery requires a full power down. You can charge the battery pack directly while using it, so that’s going to be the common mode of operation.
Debian packaging it's too convoluted. It has debuild, debhelper, devscript and who knows more with zillions of optional dependencies in Perl.
> making something illegal doesn't mean people won't do it

Isn't that the point of making something illegal? Here the system is: no insurance, no plates.

(it's also no inspection, no plates. One has to be wary of the sketchier tourists, but everyone with local plates has both insurance and a functioning vehicle)

Speaking from first-hand experience, there is some latency which makes the virtual display a lot less comfortable to use, and it's capped at 60Hz. It's effectively a coat of paint over Apple's typical "screen mirroring" feature, which is excellent for showing people stuff, but not necessarily for using it yourself.
One can fund the other though. Besides, if you’re tinkering with hardware, it really is super cheap already. ATmega’s are less than a meal. Various capacitors and resistors on Amazon in variety packs for a couple 20s. A soldering iron station for $50. Power supply for $40. It’s the same cost of entry as an entry level laptop…
The universe is infinite. FTL just makes it slightly less infinite.

FTL means we actually get to see the grandeur of the universe instead of hypothesizing mathematical models of it. Without FTL, we'll never leave this star system. The grandeur of the universe will be nothing but our imagination, instead of a real thing you can see with your own eyes.
Square will do you 1.75%, no contract, no fees and now you don't even need a physical reader as you can do contactless payment on your phone. You can get it lower with other providers if you negotiate right.

They are seeking class representatives for a class action lawsuit.

Sure - an example for me is RunwayML. It is a neat product that is very accessible to anyone, so I signed up and played with it a bit. Every once in a while I hop on and show someone a little demo of it as a cool GenAI/ML thing, but video isn’t a medium I work with or intend to work with. I am never going to become a paying customer.

The low barrier to entry (both in sign-up and usage) helps amp up user counts and usage which makes you think you have some sort of market fit, but the interest is not real.

The startups I worked with that experienced explosive growth were ones where their initial UX was mediocre or even hostile, but the demand for the thing was so high they had customers anyways. Improving the UX unlocked more growth.

I have a skewed perspective since people came to us for UX issues, so this isn’t an iron law or anything, but I think about it a lot when I see very shiny, polished launches.

A counter to this may be something like Linear, where the UX is the value.

That's quite an eye opener, thanks. I hadn't also thought about the recent conveyor belt of pretty nasty storms, that definitely would have an knock on effect on insurance. I think it is in the insurers' own interest that the Govt should implement NetZero measures asap to reduce the impact of these storms.
Honestly and respectfully, would you be clambering to fund this?

It's disturbing how little actually came out of dynamic land, and now there's a schism where the founders are pasting QR codes to hands and have as their 3rd bullet point "GPU FFI shaders"?

Does any of that scream fundamental UX research, or the future of computing?

To me, it's just another tired retread of half-baked messianic thinking that tails off into nowhere as the hero complex devolves into a series of half-baked ideas designed to scratch an individuals daily itch, rather than a central purpose.

Google had stuff like this internally for quite some time, through much later than most people would guess.

The thing is there just isn't some vastly superior paradigm sitting out there to fix computing with. The industry is mature enough that if something truly good and helpful exists, even in parts, it's quickly implemented.

One ray of light might be that the rate of change is fast enough that there are likely to be gaps emerging over the next decade.

But they're not going to be found in this sort of fashion.
How would you describe it?
Hyperbola user here. PKGBUILD's are really easy, second on easiness on Slackware's Slackbuilds which were pretty close, but Slackware predates Arch by a decade and a half.
Harvesting that much material might be a challenge.

I guess you’d also have to build it in interstellar space to avoid planets and asteroids.
Yeah sorry I didn’t mention the important difference, which had me surprised. One shot learning in traditional AI is (to use modern terms), one shot training. The AI doesn’t just do the thing in the first try, it learns from that inference as well and does the thing even better on the second try.

I guess attentional context is almost this, but LLMs don’t update their base model after a one shot inference.

Station wagons are tanky; minivans are homely and underpowered. So lots of people get SUVs. It’s easier to fit things in the trunk when shopping IKEA or going skiing, sports equipment, etc. sure, it is possible to wedge 10ft 2x4s in a sedan, but it’s easier with an SUV.

In any case, normal SUVs are not class signifiers. People drive beaters. Some are signifiers but that’s a really small segment.
All three work flawlessly for me. It takes either luck or looking up known incompatibilities before purchasing a laptop, but it's no longer 2008. Not buying hardware from certain vendors (Nvidia) helps improve your chances.

The lack of hibernation with an encrypted system is an annoying problem, though. There's a good reason it doesn't work, and the explanation has made me doubt other hibernation implementations, but it's annoying that bypassing this restriction is so hard.
Apart from how most internet companies get worse when money comes into play.

I find that most of social media went south around the time of Trump's election and the heavy partisan moderation that followed it.

Quora further seems to have been taken over by Chinese paid writers.
This choice in TOML is a mixed bag. I would say it's substantially mitigated by the fact that strings must be quoted, so you don't have strings magically turning into datetimes if they look like a date. But it does add substantially complexity to an otherwise simple language.

The near-compatibility of ISO 8601 and RFC 3339 is a rich source of bugs, but that's hardly TOML's fault, and the standard is perfectly clear that the latter is used. TOML, like many configuration and data transport languages, is defined in terms of its syntax, so an abstract Date type doesn't make sense for it.

Providing a datetime format for TOML was probably the right decision, I think there are more people who complain about JSON lacking one than there are who complain about TOML having one.
I don't know, honestly. But if it's just a matter of reducing bloat, you don't really need LTSC. For example, you can remove preinstalled apps on Home/Pro with a line in Powershell: https://www.tenforums.com/tutorials/4689-uninstall-apps-wind...

LTSC is cleaner out of the box and has much longer support, but otherwise it's not that different. And Edge on LTSC still does annoying things, such as adding a Bing search box on the desktop, for example.
My dog required a pacemaker due to a total block at a young age. It cost us basically nothing because she was insured. Would you have considered her any less of a dog? If your pet required a pacemaker would you love them any less? Would you refuse them the procedure?
I like Wikipedia and think it is still one of the better user contribution sites on the web.

However, having been a long time contributor to [Current Events](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal:Current_events) (fought over because of news relevancy), there have been waves of sock puppeting and attempts to constantly revoke all edits from certain users, that often make you not want to contribute.

There is also this editorial talking about spending that makes some arguments about current issues with Wikipedia. Namely, that there's a lot of money going in, and not a lot of requested feature development. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Guy_Macon/Wikipedia_has_C...
The part about blackmailing sounds like hand-waving to me, I also suspect that the whole thing is not genuine.
New Hampshire is the only state in the US that does not require liability insurance. If you drive through NH, make sure you have uninsured coverage. (and it is a good idea anywhere)
Lesson: Don't develop innovations that are too advanced for management to understand, because they will pass and let the rest of the world eat their lunch.
I think ISPs mostly upgrade infrastructure when customer willingness to pay goes down, such as when Google Fiber or a similarly superior alternative comes to town. I'm having trouble thinking of instances when incumbent ISPs offered a substantial improvement to service or prices in response to positive incentives. Their main business model is sitting on the status quo for as long as money continues to flow in.
Money counting machines do it by weight. They're certainly not scanning and recording the serial numbers.
Your insurance will cover your children even if they are not listed in the insurance contract. Being redundant to be clear: if a random driver hits a pedestrian child, parent's auto insurance will cover the costs even if they are not involved in the accident. The insurance company may chose to not pursue legal action even if they pay for the costs. The injured party can still do.
Thank god they are the only one exploiting it. /s
It's not "their share", it's your fantasy of getting part of their money that you're trying to impose. None of that money is yours to decide the fate of it.

Strictly speaking I don’t think that’s true. If premiums are sufficiently high then an insurance company could pay out every valid claim and still make a profit.
Savings from fossil fuel costs? Investing in electrical infra delivers returns from deprecating ongoing fossil consumption and associated spend.

Quora is, I think, part of the reason that OpenAI has a big lead over their rivals. Quora has, specifically for training language models, very high-signal data, when compared to Reddit, twitter, gmail, and Meta’s platforms. And OpenAI is afaik, the only AI lab with a license to Quora’s data.

Quora has long been a world leader of SEO and dark UX patterns — it was never as valuable to users as its Google ranking would indicate — so it’s hard to mourn its demise. But yes, it does stink to see the quality of information going down while the quantity grows at an ever-increasing exponential rate.
