I don't think there's any profound secret to jazz - except that it used to be a lifestyle and a kind of identity politics. If you played or liked jazz you were A Certain Kind of Person in a way that mattered in the late 50s. Not so much today.

Musically it's a combination of atmosphere and passion with a cerebral edge, with harmonies that are spicy and colourful but not atonally exotic and incomprehensible.

It's improvised moment-by-moment riffs and conversations over a chord chart and some loose linear and structural traditions. It doesn't have the grand architecture of classical music or the cheeky crowd-pleasing crudity and playfulness of pop.

Genres either hit you or they don't. It's fine not to like something.

You’d be amazed what you can normalize, and how quickly, when you just start doing something, or living in a certain way.

I’ve lived in various different situations that seem in retrospect intolerable, but at the time were perfectly ok - for instance, in the early days of bootstrapping, I didn’t bother with a bed or a home, I just slept on the floor by my desk at the office, using my jacket as a pillow. It became normal frighteningly quickly - to the extent that when I moved into my own place a few years later, I needed cajoling to buy a mattress at the very least - things had just ceased to have a hold on me, and a bed honestly seemed like an extravagance, unnecessary, just something I’d have to move again at some point down the road.

I don’t live such a Spartan extreme now, by any stretch of the imagination - but some traces of that experience linger - but either way my point was that that became very normal for me in a matter of weeks or months. Coming back to a more normal way of life was a strange sensation.

Honestly, I can understand how homelessness works.
Whoever wrote that section of the Wikipedia page either didn’t read the cited documents or heavily cherry-picked.

The cited document for that “up to 28%” actually states that a first analysis found amber lights leading to a reduction in being struck “between 3 and 28%” Quite a range of uncertainty.

The very same document also states that in their second analysis they found no correlation between signal color and odds of being struck.

https://web.archive.org/web/20120712231313/http://www.nhtsa....

Another one of the cited documents goes so far as to say

> Richard Van Iderstine: We have studied the crash involvement of vehicles having yellow rear turn signal lights versus red ones. With our data, we have found it challenging to prove that yellow is better than red.

https://www.washingtonpost.com/wp-dyn/articles/A37484-2004No...

And yet another of the cited sources states

> Analyses revealed that there were no statistically significant differences in rear-end accident rates between the red and amber turn-signal systems.

https://www.sae.org/publications/technical-papers/content/81...

—-

Based on the actual text of the citations I’m inclined to believe there’s very little difference.

And I don’t see how there could be. The only practical difference I see between a red signal and amber signal is that the signal might ever so briefly interpreted as a brake light activating before the first cycle completes. The course of action of the driver behind in either case is to slow down, so it’s a distinction without a difference in action.

We don't know what the other half would pay, but if we assume that $10 is the average everyone above 18 in the US, ie aprox. 260,000,000 people is willing to give per month, it means aprox. $31,200,000,000 more for preventing climate change per year. This sounds not too bad for a start.

NASA cancels a multibillion-dollar satellite servicing demo mission

Hi, I maintain that backend (which we call a "kernel"). For now, yes this is correct. Our goal is to open-source a kernel as well. We have a couple hurdles: we need to ensure the code architecture makes productive contributions possible, and we need to make it possible to run without complex cloud infrastructure setup so that it's relatively accessible.

Seeing the reception of the newly-open-sourced desktop environment, releasing the open-source kernel is going to be a major priority. I'm personally very excited about that, and I'm happy to see that's how other people want to use Puter too.
It's the British way to hate on things that are quite useful parts of their society.

It depends on how many Starships you can launch simultaneously, because the time the fuel depot spends in orbit determines how much fuel is lost to boil-off. If you have a serial launch architecture, assuming reusability, refuling and relaunching, then the upper bound is around 20 launches. Even with expendable Starships, this is still cheaper than SLS, but not by much... This is why reusability is critical to the mission.

> The problem stems from a “sender pays” rule instituted by South Korea’s Ministry of Science and ICT in 2016, to address the growing interconnection demands of video streaming and other bandwidth-intensive services. The rule requires companies to compensate the receiving networks for the traffic they send. It’s meant to tax heavy senders like Netflix and YouTube. Livestreaming sites like Twitch face particularly steep fees, as low latency is critical for live content.

> The “sender pays” model has been widely criticized by net neutrality advocates: In a recent statement calling for the repeal of the rule in the wake of Twitch’s exit, Open Net Korea warned that it “devastates the domestic content ecosystem” and “fragments the internet.”

Yeah it can also be super illegal here in Australia - falling foul of what are essentially anti slavery laws.

If companies get caught doing things like this, they can be fined for tens of thousands of dollars “per offence” - which is something like the number of missed pay packets across all employees, the whole time this has been going on.

(I’m fuzzy on the details - a friend was an advisor to a startup which paid their employees in crypto. He looked into it - and made them pay everyone in dollars as a condition of having anything to do with the company.)

It's also important to remember that the risk/return preferences between VC & founders are not aligned.

VC wants to have a portfolio of 100 companies swinging for the fences, knowing most of them are going to zero.

Individual founders do not want to go to zero, and many would be happy hitting singles or doubles.

That is, VC wants their founders to take more risk than is expected value positive for any given founder. A lot of the legal & financial levers VC uses are to force this upon you as a founder.

A way this used to be possible, also before win11, was misbehaving custom extensions to the explorer shell. IE, some applications install extra menus and handlers as part of the windows shell.
Particularly, some such extensions may fight with each other - you can have one installed, or the other, but not both.
I use the tortoiseGIT extension to integrate git into explorer, and a lot of the bugs it has seen over the years, have really been work-arounds to survive OTHER broken explorer extensions.
My point being, the problem may come from one of your staple applications, not from the fresh window install(?).

> JVM has always been on par if not often faster than hand-written C code.

I have never found this to be true.

There are a few programs (Talend, MySQL workshop) written in Java that I sometimes have to use, and I avoid them as much as I can, because they are slow, bloated, and eat lots of memory.

Java new operator is faster than malloc, because Java allocates all memory needed from the OS before starting the program. And malloc is extremely slow. C++ new operator uses malloc so it is also slow.

Stack allocation in a C program is hundreds of times faster than using new in Java.

And that's for one feature, there are many other features like C++ compile-time calculations in templates that simply have no Java equivalent.

> from far-left parties

No. Emmanuel Macron, the president, fairly right-sided, pushed it and then everybody welcomed it except some people at the right.

Now of course he could use something good for his image, he pretty much pissed most people a few months ago with how he used every non democratic ways he could to push his retirement reform despite a majority of people being against it (including people mostly agreeing with the content of this reform, but not comfortable with how he handled it).

Actually far-left sided parties are vanishingly small and wouldn't have the power to push something like this.

Off-topic and not needed here.

Edit to answer the edit: La France Insoumise is hardly far left. It is roughly between le parti socialiste which had almost vanished two years ago, and le parti communiste, itself before Lutte Ouvrière and the NPA.

Sure, if everything is installed properly with proper cables you'll be fine. But if there is any damage the cable could get hot. With fibre you don't need to spend a single thought on fire safety.

In my experience, if you go anywhere near max length on Cat6(a) and need SFP+ modules, those modules will get insanely hot and probably start dropping packets.
Eye-hand coordination, sure.

But you've got a motley set of studies. The first study says "After they played a driving or first-person-shooter video game for 5 or 10 hr, their visuomotor control improved significantly. In contrast, non–action gamers showed no such improvement after they played a nonaction video game" (emphasis mine). Not toddler's games.

The 2nd article is not only about FPS, but it is very low quality and relies on self report without a control group.

The third article finds a correlation between strategic video games and self-reported problem solving skills and self-reported academic performance, while showing a negative influence from FPS on problem solving.

So I'd say: nothing has been proven, certainly not about toddler's games.

The point of having it in the type system is not just to force you to check it. It is also to clearly document where you need to check it, and just as important, where you don't.
