Thanks! Stronglifts looks like a gold mine of information to me. Just what I was looking for. Currently I'm training with a bodybuilder approach and I'm starting to doubt it because it's hard to increase weights when you only have mid-to-high-reps sets. Personally a lot of motivation comes from the increase in the weight I lift so maybe a powerlifting approach would suit me better. Since I'm a novice (started training about 2 years ago), I'm a bit scared of doing PRs though. But maybe it could be an efficient way to force me to improve form?
I am unable to reply to any comments, so I’ll add my reply to blagie as a top-level comment instead: Gilles himself documents his process of using Inkscape here: https://castel.dev/post/lecture-notes-2/

As a summary, he uses a custom keyboard shortcut manager¹ which allows him to compos multiple keystrokes (and also saves commonly used styles):

> For example, when I press `s` and `f` simultaneously, my shortcut manager will apply a solid stroke and a grey fill to the current selection. When I want the stroke to be thick, I press `s+f+g` together, where `g` stands for thick (as the `t` key is hard to reach).

Even if this were a resounding message against SUVs, I think this will lift the status of the SUV owners: "look what I can afford, even with expensive parking fee". This is just like how Apple made the exortionary and inflated prices of their products "cool" and a status symbol.
Yes, based in fact. Titanic was a major VHS release which was too long at the time to go onto one VHS tape*

Justwatch tells me Titanic is on Disney (in my region), and available to rent or buy from half a dozen stores.

Looking at justwatch US, it seems that US streaming even more fragmented than the UK, but it's available to stream in a few places.

All will give you the full movie

* in the US I assume, I'm sure I had it a single tape in the UK
I started going to def con before the AP and I feel now that the AP were def con's golden years. At least for what I like best about it.

It's nice that it has continued to grow and reach more people but it has also changed a lot from what it used to be to what it is now.
I found the Automotive Grade Linux booth at CES last month and indeed, they had a bunch of infotainment demos set up, along with at least four Raspberry Pis running demos or displays out in the open.

I also had a talk with a couple people at the booth, for example Igalia works upstream with Vulkan and Chromium a bunch. Would love to see more Linux on the dashboard in the future, some cars have pretty substantial chips powering their infotainment systems these days. Could be nice to add that as a node to a homelab Kubernetes cluster when it's parked idle in the garage :)
I'm not a big fan of JavaScript but I admit I stayed away from it because I dislike nodejs and npm terribly.

I was forced to start coding again in JS some weeks ago and I wanted to try Deno. I must say it's been a very smooth and fast experience so far.
Very well done!

This missed all of the PC VR headsets from the mid-late 90s somehow which was where all of the interesting innovation was happening. PC VR and 3D was a huge market compared things like the relatively terrible VirtualBoy.

If you want to get your fix of probably the most influential era of VR, http://www.mindflux.com.au/index.html has been around forever as a timepiece of what was happening on the PC then.
My most hated Spotify feature is the address confirmation of all your family members (family plan). I entered our new home address and it wasn’t even there. My parents are on the other side of the world, Spotify should understand that families are not residing always in the same area.

I think they emphasised the piracy is free part because otherwise the solution would be to fix their services, while if they point to piracy is compelling because is free and not because it doesn’t frustrate people, then the solution is in the hand of regulators
I can't edit my original comment anymore, but I'll add: OG DEF CON stuff still happens, too. Parties, secret parties, parties that take a full day or two of codebreaking a badge to get to, demoscene stuff, drinking, public art, you name it, it's there -- it takes a back seat because DC does have to focus on mass appeal these days (I believe, because of its accessibility promise coupled with the number of people coming out).

I forgot these when I wrote my original post at 1AM :)
Is the headline true at all? It was punted to the next commitfest on 2/1. It could easily keep getting punted like it has been for a ~year now.
I use that too: ivy / counsel etc. Then to quickly select among the candidates and to not go "arrow down / arrow down / arrow down / arrow down / {tab,enter,whatever}" I use ivy-avy.

ivy-avy works like vim's EasyMotion or the older Emacs "ace-jump" mode (inspired by EasyMotion): you keep your eyes on the thing you want to select (or the place on the screen where you want your cursor to go to) and then invoke avy (by using a shortcut very conveniently placed as I use it all the time). Then a letter appears and you hit that letter (requires to be a touch typist as you cannot both keep your eyes on the candidate and look at your keyboard) and boom, you just selected the candidate / moved the cursor.

There's no faster way to select / move anywhere on the screen.

I'm using that since years (I used to use ace-jump before ivy/avy was a thing).

Imagine this list of candidates after I asked to open a file containing the regexp "green" (well it's just a word, but it could be a regexp):

/home/jack/work/green.pdf
/home/jack/private/greendayschedule.org
.
. (omit 10 lines here)
.
/mnt/greenvelvet.txt
/mnt/backup/green.cfg

Now I invoke "ivy-avy" and the list of candidates becomes this:

f/home/jack/work/green.pdf
g/home/jack/private/greendayschedule.org
n
b (omit 10 lines here)
c
e/mnt/greenvelvet.txt
d/mnt/backup/green.cfg

And these individual letters appear in another color, so they stand out.

To select, say, "mnt/greenvelvet.txt", you just hit the letter 'e'. Done.

It's really sweet and it works with nearly everything: selecting a candidate in a list (like a file, a completion, ...), moving the cursor anywhere on the screen, selecting a buffer, etc.
Not really, no card counter goes unnoticed forever. It's about making sure you get enough time to play when the count is high that you manage to earn money. If you're curious about the life of card counters I can't recommend this YouTube channel enough: https://www.youtube.com/stevenbridges
Nanoid’s performance is likely to be on-par with UUIDv4, if not worse. While it’s smaller in ASCII, Postgres and MySQL (when coerced) both store UUIDs as 16 binary characters, well below the 21 of Nanoid.

And in any case, the primary driver of the poor performance is from k-sortability due to page spread. The only alternative to UUIDv? that would do well is ULID, as it’s lexicographically sortable.
I end up with a new account at every gig I work. I don't even remember them all. Maybe this is bad practice on my part, and I should be shutting them down when a job ends, but I just like the separation of personal vs. work accounts.
What makes it seem probable that it is patent-encumbered? Is there something specific I can read about or is it just the track record of previous standards (starting with arithmetic encoding in the first JPEG)?
> Not to be TOO snarky

Repeating this verbatim in your reply means you are trying to be pretty snarky, fyi.
Same old story with regard to American business culture --- technical people are expenses to be controlled, management and sales people are assets to be rewarded.

Somehow, the fact that their entire business model is built around technical people is pushed into the background and forgotten --- until it becomes a real issue.

First and foremost, if you don't design and build a competent, competitive product, there is nothing to manage or sell. Technical people are essential to the existence of a business like Boeing.
What does Poetry provide that the 'official' PyPA tooling doesn't? I'm referring to the somewhat unfortunately named 'wheel' and 'build'? Also, `pyproject.toml` itself is an innovation from outside of Poetry afaik.

And for what use-cases does Poetry not work, if any?
> spend time writing up lots of tests for things that get covered “automatically” in statically typed languages

This is mostly down to poor testing culture in general. People end up writing a lot of meaningless unit tests when what you need is integration tests. However, there's very little tooling to help with integration tests (in all languages) as everything is focused on unit testing only.

With proper integration tests you will cover much of what the compiler gives you in statically-typed languages.
I think I never wanted children because I realized quite young that there’s no god and when I died I would be done and gone and nothing I had done would ever have mattered. It did not make for a happy childhood and is not something I’d wish upon a child. And I don’t even have any happy stories about religion to pass onto a child like my parents tried to impart on me.

If I were to create people in order to try and find some meaning but leaving them as adrift in this meaninglessness as I, would that really be a selfless act? It seems quite the opposite to me.

Perhaps this is indeed “cope” in one way or another, but it’s what I’ve felt from a very young age, though I think it took me a lot of reflection to realize it and be able to put it into words.
Why China is flooding Europe with EVs
Yes, this was the one. I think it was my first exposure to UX - probably around 2000, 2001.
No one said it so far:

I find sandboxed plugins the killer feature.

I trust the Debian maintainers and couple of teams and individuals (including Aram), but there is no way I can remotely build trust for the number of people needed to build a convenient tmux/nvim development environment. I really, really wish neovim would have a sandboxed plugin environment like this.

[Goes without saying that the sandbox is not a replacement for trust and vice versa, but it would be a big step forward. What we are doing right now with plugins in this space is terribly dangerous.]
And if your type system is expressive ... you might still need to write tests to make sure that your types are correct and give you back the result you actually want :)

I've seen people build type-level DSLs. Sure they encode a lot of logic in types... but are you sure that logic is correct? :)
This seems like a distraction from the substance.

In my experience studying physics, most of the learning happens by yourself trying to solve problems, putting hypothesis to yourself, trying, failing, examining what failed.
Not in all cases - I know people that don't hold any special place in their hearts for humanity as a whole.

They see human extinction as a possibility to accept, rather than as something to necessarily avoid.

I know a few people like this, and their reasons vary. These range from "if humanity goes extinct, it's god's will" to "dinosaurs went extinct and the earth survived, something else will evolve if we're not here" to "we've shown we can't be trusted to care for the planet, let nature take its course".

In most cases they'd rather avert climate catasrophe, but for the continued habitability of the planet (for many species), rather than for the continuation of humanity.
That type of censorship has always been a thing. Back in January 1992, the TNG episode "The High Ground" was not broadcast in the UK due to a line about how terrorists can win at their goals. Later broadcasts edited out the line, it wasn't until 2006 that you could see the unedited version.
I checked out Zellij a while ago, because it looked all shiny, but then realized that tmux (that I've been using for years) does everything that zellij does, except it is more widespread (runs on remote systems which are not the most recent versions) and better debugged. So I went back to using tmux. But at least I got motivated to learn more about tmux :-)
> I'm always quick to help ( within 5 minutes at most, but mostly immediately)

You’re the problem here.

Don’t be so quick to help. They’ll just keep coming for more help.

Or if you are quick to help, answer with a question that points them in the right direction rather than giving them an answer.
I found that to be a strange reason, as if being pleasant were the goal (hello, Willy Loman!), and the value of smart phones, and not doing something actually valuable with one’s time. In that sense, my smartphone can help make better use of my time in waiting rooms, but of course, that’s up to the user. You can choose to waste your time.
> Don't you have a right to vote for an elected representative?

Of course not. The EU parliament is just there to rubber-stamp the decisions coming from the undemocratically appointed commission. They can’t propose any laws or directives.

No voters would elect such a person like https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ursula_von_der_Leyen to a top office. She’s thoroughly incompetent, corrupt, self-entitled as it gets and has zero charisma (literally zero redeeming qualities).
Having dated an abnormal amount of mainlanders, One thing that I always found weird was the amount of "rule following". Top down directives that you must do.

I can only imagine this being leveraged nefariously.
I downgraded from the 4-screen option to single screen when they cracked down on password sharing.

The downside is that level subscription is restricted to a maximum resolution of 720p, which doesn't bother me a great deal in terms of picture quality, it bothers me in that it's a technical limitation - maybe it's justified in terms of their costs to deliver 720p versus 1080p, but I feel like 1080p should be a baseline in 2024.
Netflix doesn't allow 1080p streaming to Linux users. The DRM also doesn't allow you to take any screen captures while Netflix is visible. You can't download any content and even on Windows you'd have to watch it within 48 hours.

All these antipiracy measures only invite us to pirate.

Pirating allows us to choose a media player of our children, possibly with 4K upscaling, better compression standards and the ability to download our content.

> Delayed availability also bolsters piracy. In the age of the internet

That's been the case since the 1990s. I used to download episodes of Voyager and SG1 the morning they were broadcast in the US because of it

The bottom-end of "human's as a species still exist" is not an existence you are familiar with or want, and is worse then what our hunter-gatherer forebears had to deal with.

> Some areas will even become more habitable.

Rather makes a lot of assumptions that the "no longer supportable" population will simply gracefully starve to death and leave the lucky ones be in the interim.
The issue with people disregarding security protocols goes much deeper than them being unaware of what's possible. People just hope nothing will happen and avoid thinking about it. You're facing "Who's got time for that stuff? We have actual work to do!" and "What's so important about our data/access privileges/whathaveyou anyway? Nobody will bother stealing it."
Is the site working? There seem to be broken sections: a section that just says "undefined", a large section that's blank, and a section that just says "Error: process exited with code 1.".
Haha! Maemo! I was thinking this while I was looking at that keyboard. I have two of these in a parts drawer. I can’t bring myself to part with them, despite their non-functioning.

Holy shit, I never thought of this before but this is an excellent idea for a search engine feature. It would work really well as one of Stract's optics!

Deno, on the other hand, has it as a supported, complete feature that’s very easy to use:

Why is Musk choosing perfect over good enough?

Without relitigating it, we somehow ended up with 2/3rds of Build Back Better in the form of the Inflation Reduction Act. It and other "Bidenomics" are working spectacularly well. Major windfall for Tesla, with subsidies for re-shoring production, PVs, EVs, storage, mining, etc.

Does Musk not support IRA?

Why does Musk actively oppose and antagonize the people who are actually effectively addressing climate crisis?

A killer feature for me is combining floating windows with "zellij run". It allows you to run a command but also re-run the command by pressing enter.

zellij run --floating -- date

This will open a new floating window with the result of the command (`date` in this case) and pressing enter will run it again. I use it for running tests (make some changes, show floating windows, press enter). Depending on your OS you might already have shell aliases such as zrf (run floating) or zr.

Nanny here in NY is $30/h. If you work full time (and commute) you'll need about 10 hours a day. 30x10x5x4 is 6000, then add food (formula is insanely expensive), diapers, clothes, basic medical and you're easily up to 7k/m before they've taken their first steps.

I’ve been self employed full time for almost 20 years, with one to two employees during that time. It’s a product company which I won’t link to because customers think we’re a big organization.

I worked nights and weekends for about 10 years on the products before they were good enough and selling enough that I could go full time. I’ve focused heavily on not having technical debt, and making the app as user friendly as possible to cut down on customer support burden.

Customer support work on holidays and vacations is required, but only for an hour or two. It’s been a pretty good gig.
I found the book a little depressing eg. the quote on the cover of some editions “We are survival machines – robot vehicles blindly programmed to preserve the selfish molecules known as genes. This is a truth which still fills me with astonishment.”

I hope you take the time to understand why you are wrong when the compensation package with altered language is passed overwhelmingly by shareholders.

My Tesla investment has gone up 1200% and extra 10% means nothing to me. The deal we shareholders struck with the CEO in 2018 was more than fair and I was not cheated in any way. My daughters will never have to endure the drudgery I did thanks to Tesla, one of the greatest and fastest growing manufacturing companies in the history of the world. Weaseling out of the compensation package that made it happen because a judge thinks I didn't know Musk's brother wasn't an independent board member is absurd.

It's amazing to me that people can't just look at the numbers and understand why the pay package was a great deal. I hope that when the shareholders re-approve it you take a step back and try to understand why Tesla is such a special company.
I too like it when people link to things to back up a statement.

But the way he described the phenomenon made it seem pretty common, and indeed, a quick search for "patel cfo scam hotels" turns up a number of relevant results... Seems like it's a pretty well known, frequently occurring event in the hotel industry.
