Plus, leveling the target area with dumb shells is not necessarily working, exhibit A the Western Front in WW1. And if said target area is a city, the leveling is kind of frowned upon nowadays (depending of course on who is levelling and who is being levelled).

The alternative is guided artillery shells. And those are damn expensive.

SPTP does look a lot like NTP over PTP. I’m guessing they deployed this last year when nothing like it existed - the ietf draft (dated Jan 24, 2024) came much later after. They might even be involved with it. Anyways, it’s nice to see progress towards a simpler protocol that retains the precision of PTP.

Likely this was the biggest surprise to emerge. Even Georgia and Armenia did not foreshadow the scale and slogmatch reality of Ukraine eh. The need for stockpiles is real.

> Artillery is still, and for many reasons will be, a king. Shells are order of magnitude cheaper than rockets. They are smaller. Easier to manufacture.

Oh, I was disappointed that it's missing some interesting (albeit often well-know) cases like C++, C#, JavaScript or even PHP.
to be fair they might be somewhat confused by marketing copy. I've worked on installations like this, and its not uncommon for capacities to be specified as something like 50MW battery (4 hours). sometimes the number of hours is written in a different place to the base output capacity. I think it started because originally the idea is that the battery is some number of hours multiple of the production of a generating asset, like on-site wind. In fact capacity payments and stuff in some countries (read: subsidies) can be different based on the number of hours of the battery
Things to ponder if you're having these conversations.

> a portfolio of energy sources. Yes, the top ways might be solar, wind, batteries.

Batteries are energy storage, not a source. Other storage methods are worth finding out about.

> what if we need energy at night during cold weather without wind? We will continue to burn giant oil tankers full of fossil fuels.

We already burn vast amounts of fossil fuels (how much per day globally | by various countries? it's worth a look).

The key thing here is how much less would be used if a country is only "topping up" energy storage and delivery during renewable down times?

What are the differences between a coal fired power station that drives a turbine and a gas powered power station that drives a turbine (ramping up | always "on" times, etc).

> I also think fission should get some predictable sustained research funding

In which country though? South Korea and China are steadily building fission power reactors, the USofA has had ongoing fission research as part of being a nuclear nation since the Manhatten project, it's DoE straddles nuclear for weapons and nuclear for power, they had nuclear submarines, etc.

It's a double-edged situation, of course. On one hand, users who primarily use web-based applications will suffer (I honestly thought that such people didn't exist at all, but it turns out one of my acquaintances is one of them - he hardly has any apps on his phone except the most essential ones. Everything else he rarely uses - he accesses through Safari). But on the other hand, Apple's decision, stating that it ensures security and data protection for users, also seems fair. However, users should still have the choice of what they want to use.
I agree. Keeping a 1.4 km long chain of elevators with buckets of sand running, with as little friction as possible, in a hard to access mineshaft, probably with high humidity, and sand everywhere, sounds like a very expensive operation.

Which IMO is still not worth much or hardly anything at all if we ignore the content of those PRs. I would assume that most are bugfixes or trivial changes (since no tests are needed) so it makes sense that they are causing the least issues.

That’s hardly relevant if you are trying to introduce actual features which require hundreds if not thousands of new lines.

Wow! It went down from over 2000 seconds to less than half a second, as HW improved. And the last test was ran on a Pentium 4. I wonder what are the results on today's HW.
It's interesting as my M2 machines of which I have two, have never crashed on me once. However, I'm very choosy about the software I run on them, and the said software doesn't do weird bollocks like trying to extend builtin frameworks with plugins. I mean, those are not weird bollocks per se, but Apple seems to be actively abandoning any and all effort it has done to make their own stuff (for example, Mail) extensible. So be it. One day I'll surely flip them a bird as I install Linux on my remaining mac.

Wonder if your M1 might have a hardware defect lurking, though — the vast majority of kernel panics on real macs come from hardware malfunctioning.

Joke for Pokémon fans: Surely it should be called Platinum then?

[Explaining / Ruining the joke: Pokémon games come in paired editions - red/blue, gold/silver, sword/shield. For the fourth generation of games the paired editions are Diamond/Pearl.

In many generations an 'upper' edition is later released - Yellow, Crystal, Emerald - this is a slightly enhanced remake, often with a tweaked story. For the fourth generation the upper edition was called Platinum.]

I've had a Hacktintosh from 2016 until end of last year.

Initially I just did it because I assembled a pretty good PC for gaming, but for work stuff I liked macOS more, so dual booting was a nice option!

This was also before the M-series chips, where you had to pay a hefty premium to get better Intel processors, and also (imo) Apple increasingly struggled with the heat produced by the chips.

Things got a bit more annoying a couple years later, when Apple had their fallout with NVIDIA and would not sign their drivers anymore, which meant I had to buy a cheap AMD GPU to use for macOS.

End of last year I changed a couple of components, including the GPU, in my PC and then decided the hassle with two GPUs was just not worth it for me anymore; so I bought a Mac studio.

I gained some and lost some with this transition. I'm no longer worried about major software updates, it's nice that I don't have to deal with complicated config files for the bootloader every once in a while, and of course there were some minor bugs too.

But I kind of miss the convenience of dual booting, with shared IO and drives. Now I need a network switch, USB-hub and have to toggle between monitor inputs. So yeah! Wasn't all bad!

Anyways, I think it's very cool that there is this community of people that write and maintain special bootloaders and drivers to make it all possible!

You would think so but no. Roads and highways belong to the State or Federal government (basically whoever built the damn thing).

States and the Federal government are managed by an Elected government and their appointees, and are empowered to levy taxes.

Taxpayers foot the bill, and some taxpayers are even citizens with the right to vote in elections.

The whole “X belongs to the taxpayer” is crap rhetoric you and many many many Americans were raised on, but which does not accurately convey anything about your relationship with the roads and highways you use. We pay for them, we elect the people who are charged with managing the entity that does own them and employs people to build and maintain them, but we do not own them.
> these shells have been redirected to Israel and are being used in Gaza

The front in Gaza is not Israel's only wartime front, not in the current conflict and not during past conflicts: Currently, Israel needs this ammunition to defend itself from Hezbollah forces in Southern Lebanon that have engaged in heavy indiscriminate rocket launching against Israeli civilian populations in the Northern Israel. At least 65,000 Israeli civilians have been forced to evacuate from their homes into temporary dorms until this Hezbollah threat is removed. Hezbollah, an Iran-backed terrorist org with ties to Lebanon parliament, must disengage their troops, as they are breaking the UN Resolution 1701 of demilitarization of the Southern Lebanon area.

Rocket launching from South Lebanon has started concurrently with Hamas attacks against Israel that started on October 7th in the Southern Israel.

> these shells have been redirected to Israel and are being used in Gaza

IDF usually doesn't use this ammunition against target threats in the Gaza strip. The most common explosives used are the Israeli air-force's targeted airstrikes, which are very precise and are performed to limit casualties of non-engaged civilians in the conflict.

> these shells have been redirected to Israel and are being used in Gaza in service of genocide, which the International Court of Justice has determined to be likely to be occurring

There is no genocide taking place in Gaza. There is war, yes, and civilians die too, yes, some even plausibly innocent, but the attacks are not with intent to target civilians. IDF commanders don't issue commands that break humanitarian limits and IDF soldiers adhere to their commanders strictly (outlier cases are dealt with promptly by military court).

FYI the ICJ's court of justice has NOT determined that a genocide is likely to be occurring, in fact it only issued a provisional statement that humanitarian care for the population of the Gaza Strip should continue, which Israel has already been doing for many months now, and will continue to provide, with enabling the entry of 100-200 or more trucks full of food every day, gasoline, and other humanitarian products etc.

Vercel's Path to Product-Market Fit – From Open-Source Project to Billion-Dollar
I don't know where matheusmoreira usually drives, and I admit that from the comment's tone there may be some kind of prejudice against motorbike riders.

However, as a rider myself, I do tend to agree. If I had a penny for every stupid shit I've seen a rider do, I could buy all the highways in my country.

One short way I like to put it, is that they trust way too much the other people on the road (cars or bikes!) to not do something stupid at the exact moment they themselves do something stupid. Like cutting people off, riding 2 inches behind the vehicle in the front, overtaking some car waiting for pedestrians to cross – you name it they've done it.

As someone riding fairly defensively, I'm actually quite bitter about all this. Those idiots give us a bad rep and the powers that be are attempting to take our joy away with stupid regulations that won't actually improve anything.

Big problem with this approach is doing the same thing twice, which is a big no no in a lot of applications. For example, if you do something, then crash before you get the chance to update your durable execution object, then you’ll do it again after restarting.

We were dealing with such code in a TCB and the only way is to audit your code and ensure that any action that can only be done once at most saves that action before doing the action.

I think you have the same concepts in queues no? Some queues will repeat at most once, some at least once, something like that. I can’t remember.

I think different providers are just trying to provide value at different areas in the market. OctoAI are consistently the most cost effective, but typically not as fast, while others are fast but come at a premium. In general, some providers are also willing to operate with little or no positivie margins to gain traction. I think things might stabilize more over time. Will be interesting to see!

TLDR: Issue with yarn also.

I just tested with yarn, and the same issue exists unless the yarn or npm config option for `script-shell` is set to zsh (like the solution described in the link).

With `script-shell` set to zsh: globstar paths work with subdirectories.
Without `script-shell` set (the default on linux): only top-level paths work.

The command I ran was `yarn test` with this test script in the scripts section of package.json: `node --test src/**/*.test.ts`.

I don't want to turn this into a GitHub issue thread, but also didn't want to be dismissive. I hope that helps.
