Interesting comment on the accommodation crisis.

The russians don't really have to move. They are already close enough to shoot with small arms fire at the whole withdraw area. But the ukrainians have to move, the counter attack and the withdraw itself- it is a total disaster. The order came way too late, probably because of stupid symbolic reasons, because too many cannot handle unpleasant truth. And you did not tell me yet, what exact statement of mine were fantasy.

Dead air is a very big deal in the US too. The argument is something like "licensees exist to serve the public and obviously dead air does not serve, but more importantly means that a listener might stay tuned into silence when an emergency alert is broadcast over all other stations".

It's sort of tenuous, although not wrong. Off-air is a better state than dead air.

Yea I recognize it's probably been greatly reduced generation over generation, it was already being addressed systematically when I was a kid ~20 years ago... but saying "eliminated" seems like it must be an exaggeration.

That is neat. It would avoid the need to craft regex in many case.

One of my favourite tricks is multi cursor, edit and use end of line or next word shortcuts to make bulk edits.

Doing that across files would be cool!
The different L3 networks are connected by L2 networks in-between them, not just behind them. L2 doesn't disappear once you hit the router, you've still got to reach your peer's IP over L1/L2 somehow at some point. A great deal of internet peering is not even a L3 box <- direct L1+L2 connection -> L3 box connection, it's dumb L2 transport which provides the IP connectivity path for the BGP session to a more centralized router. Sometimes the path is a pseudowire doing the same with a functional MTU lower than the switched/routed path it rides on too.

These underlying paths are not always static either, just because you have 9000 today doesn't mean when the path fails to a backup alternate tomorrow the MTU will be 9000. You have to get everyone involved on the internet to agree all links should now be 9000, now you can reliably set your router's outbound link to 9000 in all cases and rely on L3 fragmentation. Until someone wants to set their MTU to 12000 :). Even when I've had paid WAN transport with contracted MTU the MTU has lowered during carrier maintenance like firmware upgrades or unit replacements and I've had to call them up saying the MTU is broken because something like NFS servers will think they can statically set a known MTU on the path and it'll stay that way, a routed neighbor on the path would make the same error in this example.
I have been working for over 30 years, never once have I considered the NLRB being for me the normal worker.... never once have I ever wanted to be part of a union, and never once have I ever seen personally unions provide any benefit to workers. I have worked in and around unionized manufacturing plants my entire life, including many times during the formation of a union. In all most all cases the workers lives, pay, and conditions were WORSE post union than before...
>> Errors are almost always the result of faults. Barring cosmic rays, hardware issues or really unusual race conditions between the application and the operating system, if an error occurs it is because the programmer screwed up and introduced a bug. <<

The 'cosmic ray' category has taken in an awful lot of additional territory since computers started running multiple programs at once and sharing resources between programs and with the world in general. About 60 years ago, perhaps lightheartedly, it was suggested that computer instruction sets should contain a branch-on-chipbox-full instruction. The chipbox, a shared resource, was where the cardpunch disposed of the confetti produced by punching cards. As we were learning that anything that could go wrong would, it was logically inferred that if a full chipbox was ignored long enough while punching cards, the computer would find a way to stop, fail, or burn down the building, and no existing software could prevent that possibility on its own. A comparable situation in this century is that typical computers today allow the operator to 'adjust' the system clock, but a very small fraction of software is written to accommodate all the possible consequences of non-monotonic time, time being a shared resource. And if you do write software to handle said consequences, how do you handle it if the program has no way of telling if it is running on a system on which non-monotonic time is allowed or not-allowed, catastrophic or all in a days work?

What is the expected ECS overhead per frame (not including graphics interaction, i.e. code specifically in the ECS model)?

Since an ECS is typically a flattened scene graph, is there still a game loop? Wouldn't be necessary, correct? You only need to respond to the inputs...
No one cares about the tech.
I think for dynamic languages exceptions are just a fact of life and it doesn't really make much sense to worry about them, you can't rely on the type system to remind the programmer of all the cases they need to handle.

So thinking in terms of failure handling is the way to go.
Ongoing Malicious Campaign Impacting Azure Cloud Environments
I'm guessing this was downvoted for being rude, but I think there is a valid question here. It looks like Zed is putting a lot of work into minimizing the latency between a key being typed and feedback being displayed on a visual interface which is easily parsed by a sighted user.

If a programmer is using audio for feedback, then there is probably be some impedance mismatch by translating a visual interface into an audio description. Shouldn't there be much better audio encoding of the document? There would also be many more wasted cycles pushing around pixels, which the programmer will never see. An editor made specifically for visually impaired programmers, unencumbered by the constraints of a visual representation, would be able to explore the solution space much better than Zed.

> At some point you may get tired of stagnating salary and being told what to do all the time

Managers don't get told what to do all the time? Since when? Managers just get it from both sides. If you don't know about all the stuff your manager is dealing with from people above them, or from other managers in the organization: good! That means they're doing their job shielding you from that. The manager is telling their reports what to do—okay, I guess so, sometimes. But just as often they're adapting their plans to what their teams tell them can or should or has been done. And they're also being told what to do by people to whom they are direct reports. People who are, in my experience, much more demanding and much less collaborative than most managers themselves are with their teams.

I've been a manager, and I stopped all that because it felt like I had more bosses and less agency than when I was an IC.

It seems that we tend to treat wealth inequality as some sort of judgement of fairness and unfairness. That is: the lower wealth inequality, the more fair.

I think projecting the quality of fairness is a false hope.

The Dutch are the tallest people in the world and Asians tend to be the smallest. Remember that oxygen and food are also resources in the world. Consequently, the Dutch inherently use more food and oxygen to maintain their bigger bodies compared to the Asians.

As such, it is unfair to an Asian person that their Dutch friend use so much more, if we were to judge them based on fairness.

Now, just to mess with the reader's mind, I'll flip my own case by saying that since there are many more Asians than the Dutch, it's unfair to the Dutch that Asians consume so much of food and oxygen.

I hope that the reader gets my point that projection of any sort of fairness is an exercise in vain.

I think that if we want to grow up, we need to grow beyond fairness and unfairness. We need to looks for things beyond these realms of false projection.

Personally, I have accepted the idea that some people have more wealth than others and some less. I neither despise those people nor I love them. I feel content with whatever life has given me. Now, that is not to say that I don't desire to be richer. I do and I continue to act in my own favour. It's just that I do not feel sad that I have less than others or hate someone if they are richer.

Ethereum switched from PoW to PoS. GPU mining stopped. The company I was working for wound down. So, yea... way ahead of you.

Smash and grabs of transmitter building equipment are relatively quick. They set off alarms (usually) of course, but you can get out in 15 minutes with a few racks of gear.

Taking down a tower requires more time and care. And tools. And it pays less for scrap, although the black market for the kind of equipment you find in a transmitter building is small and not well-capitalized.

The 75 ohms is meaningful when there is no reflection (like when we imagine sending a signal into an infinite piece of the cable).

If you are using a short piece of the cable to convey a voltage signal between two pieces of equipment (like the output of one amplifier into the input of another), it has no meaning. The voltage on the other end rises almost instantly and is reflected back.

> NLRB rulings are "arbitrary" only if you somehow believe that a regulatory body, whose rulings can be appealed to an Article III court for redress, are intrinsically "arbitrary". Which is a quiet little hide-the-ball attempt at rhetoric.

They're arbitrary not because of the ruling (although putting judicial functions in the executive is scarcely better than putting legislative functions there), they're arbitrary because the rule you're being fined for violating was created by the administrative agency fining you rather than Congress.

> your fictive person provides the real people who've bought into it limited liability, which actual humans cannot avail themselves of.

It's typically the actual humans who avail themselves of it. Limited liability means that if you own shares of Exxon (or the S&P 500, which has contained shares of Exxon) and then they get sued and go bankrupt, the plaintiffs don't get to take your house. It's about protecting the investors (commonly ordinary human individuals) rather than the corporation which can still be sued into bankruptcy.

It's also not obvious what one has to do with the other. So you can't sue the corporation for more than what it has, why does that mean you should be able to take their stuff under rules never passed by elected legislators?

> 2. Vote suppression. By choosing some documents (more likely to be held by your supporters) as valid ID

I'd say the European assumption would be that there are one or two valid ID cards (a passport and a national identity card), and owning either one would be mandatory. Doesn't then disenfranchise anyone.

It's not mandatory in all European countries though. But I think it's usually mandatory that you are able to identify yourself somehow.

Here are the plans for the editor prototypes: https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy_editor_prototypes/discuss...

As far as Lumen goes, there are a few experimental early-stage projects that add real-time global illumination to Bevy, such as bevy-solari [1]. Most of them rely on hardware raytracing support, as this simplifies a lot of things, and the new baked GI stuff that just shipped in 0.13 is fine for non-RTX. Besides, there's a good chance that hardware raytracing support will be very commonplace by the time any of this reaches production quality.

For Nanite, the closest thing that's being actively worked on is meshlets [2]. These actually are pretty close to ready and likely to land in 0.14 (no guarantees of course). These provide some, but not all, of the benefits of Nanite. LOD features can potentially be layered on top of meshlets in the future to provide a solution to roughly the same set of problems that Nanite solves, with some advantages relative to Nanite and some disadvantages.

When suitable alternatives exist, duplication with complexity is a subconscious tendency to ensure job security. It happens everywhere. If we were to completely deduplicate technology and effort by ruthlessly promoting standardization, there would be only one instruction set architecture, one compiler, one operating system, and many fewer programming languages. The paradox of choice, especially unlimited choice, is tyranny of a different kind than monoculture. Also, there must be review of the work of so-called "architects" so they do not form a hated cadre of useless idea guys.

Call it what you want but large businesses planning to do large buildouts collect bids from states for favorable tax breaks and other incentives. In my state there are two
whole departments at the statehouse dedicated to just this. Having the federal government step in and tell every state all at once that the practice is now outlawed eliminates this source of legal corruption and levels the playing field so states that want to attract business must do exactly what you lay out.
Pretty straightforward process / I just made it up. Throw some olive oil in an Instant Pot, add beef and sear (no need to fully cook, just brown it), add ~4 cups of water and ~2 cups of lentils (I eyeball these), throw in chopped onions / bell peppers / mushrooms / garlic, add spices (plenty of turmeric + generic store bought "curry powder", garlic powder, dill, cayenne pepper, salt), and the secret ingredient: ~1/2 cup of smooth peanut butter (trust me this is very important ... when in doubt add more).

(edit: I keep the Saute setting on while im adding ingredients and occasionally stir. Then I seal it up, turn on the "bean chill" mode on high. And wait 40 minutes for tasty goodness)

The term is kinda fuzzy and means different things in different engines, but in Bevy it refers to lightweight 3D wireframe overlays that you can use for visual debugging.
It's just a dumb mistake. All it takes is a "next layer header length" field. It would have been very simple.

You don't even really need that, and as proof, take ICMP ... which was designed as part of IP ... actually does do this. Routers are already required to copy and include the header of the packet that triggered an ICMP error.

Life ain’t fair. Selling to Medicare is a privilege, not a right. You’re free to find other markets more favorable if preferred as a pharma company, that’s a choice.
