If you are just against government spending there is no argument you can make that can challenge that.

> specially if the money had been left in the tax payers pockets.

This was peak suberbia and peak people buying cars. I think there is a good argument being made that more money invested in suberbia and cars wouldn't be good investment. In fact, there is a good argument that this is a negative investment for society.

On the other hand, Apollo lead to a massive investment in engineering and scientific talent and to a huge amount of technology development that was then utilized by lots of other industries.

If I could have picked, I would have preferred some of that investment into nuclear technology. But that wasn't really in the cards.

People have always been critical of Apollo as specially on the left they would have preferred social programs, and libertarians would have preferred nothing.

I am libertarian leaning myself but as far as government spending goes, this is some of the better things they can do. They did arguably spend to much to fast, rather then taking a measured approach.
I haven't driven that many different cars in my life, but isn't it usually the stick on the same side as the driver's seat? Aka if the driver's seat is on the right, then the blinkers are on the right, and the other way around in left-seated cars?

I switch between Indonesia and EU fairly often and most cars I've driven followed that pattern as far as I can remember (maybe I just never noticed though)

Yeah there's a lot of rationalizing going on here, the investors have more generous terms because they have a lot of market power compared to anybody else at the company, nothing more, nothing less. It doesn't necessarily correlate with risks.
I agree that some of the rhetoric can be off-putting, and it put me off personally for a long time. I think we should let the results speak for themselves -- there's an impressive and solid ecosystem of high-quality software, and there's more every day. That should be enough to sell it on its merits without being a little too forceful. I think the Linux kernel is taking the right approach on this too.
Radio Station: "Giants of Jazz" was an absolute revelation to me discovering only absolute classics over the past 50 years. 'In a silent way' is still my favourite MD album. Reading the "Miles:The autobiography" while listening through his discography was one of my favourite ever reading experiences, thoroughly recommended.
Most are pretty good in my experience, with the exception of Tesla. Tesla’s auto-wipers are comically bad. They NEVER work well because they try to use a tiny camera mounted to the top of the windshield to determine when to trigger them. The camera is probably unable to actually focus on the windshield itself, especially since it is also used for the driver assistance features and has to be focused at road-distance, so my guess is they’re using some kind of algorithm to try and detect distortion caused by rain drops on the windshield for an image captured with focus significantly further away than the windshield surface itself. And that challenge has so far remained unsolved. Tesla just pretend to have working auto-wipers.
Not sure how this relates to desktop, but from the article it seems that Arm got some nice involvement going:

> Another huge change is Arm officially joining the party. We were not only given access to some documentation, but they also took an active part in the review process and two developers are currently flagged as co-maintainers of the kernel driver. Some would say that this was already the case when Panfrost got merged, but we have strong reasons to believe Arm's involvement is going to grow outside the kernel space this time.
Overstated. It's at best marginally easier to hit a random physical button on the center console than to hit a single button on the bottom bar of a Tesla screen, where it is very easy to grab by design. I generally don't hit those physical buttons without at least a glance, and that's all it takes for the Tesla bottom bar buttons too.

This doesn't save the wiper situation, though, because that requires navigating menus. Clearly far worse than a physical control in that case.
It has been a very long time since I read GGS, but I can tell you haven't yet... and judging from this comment I bet you would find it fascinating.

To give a top-of-my-foggy-memory answer to your question about industrialization, here are some of the contributing factors as I recall:

- Head-start: agricultural settlements started in Mesopotamia about 10k BCE, and branched out from there. That's the earliest record we have anywhere in the world of a farming culture which allowed specialized classes to emerge (builders, rulers, administrators, inventors, etc etc) and the basis for emerging technology. e.g. in the Americas it looks like this happened 5k years later.

- More wild plant and animal species suitable for domestication. Only a small % of wild plants and animals are suitable and useful for domestication, and they were overwhelmingly concentrated in Europe. Wheat, barley, and beans were farmed earlier and are easier to farm than rice (East Asia) and potatoes/corn (Americas). There are no African or American animals with the capacity for burden and domesticability of european horses, donkeys, and oxen, and we haven't even talked about cattle, pigs, goats, sheep, etc.

- the mix of small arable geographical area and concentrated population centers led to constant war in Europe, which drove a lot of technological innovation, especially in metallurgy. Europe is also particularly rich in iron and coal, which gave another advantage to pre-industrial tech branches (to use a Civilization analogy). In contrast, China was extremely politically stable and had less need for tools of war like hardened steel.

- The relatively limited available land and population also motivated invention in European farming methods, which was not the case in e.g. China, where human labor is in many places still cheaper than technological efficiency. Human labor intensive farming methods from the 6th century are still in use in many parts of China, because that's just more effective than the alternative.

- Constant war improved infrastructure between cities, too (thank you Roman empire). Hundreds of years later this accelerated trade beween population centers, contributing to many features that characterize industrialization as it happened in Europe. Including: a merchant class, production geogrpahically separated from sale, etc.

- Early advantages were determining factors in colonialism and wealth extraction from other continents. i.e. because Europe had better guns, more germs, and better steel (ha), when they arrived in the Americas they wiped out the indigenous populations.

Please don't take this as a unilateral endorsement of the ideas in the book - I'm not qualified! If nothing else the whole question is post-hoc... "why did Europe achieve European-defined success before any other continent achieved European-defined success?" In any case the ideas are interesting and I bet you would enjoy thinking about them, as I did.

Interesting enough, all flying machines fly - that means both airplanes and lighter than air stuff.

But ships and submarines don't swim. Although submarines do dive.

Coming back from the finer points of the english language, the LLM in question is likely to be trained on text discussing LLM evaluation. So it ended up generating something about it.

You LLM "activists" are doing yourselves a disservice speaking about them in religious tones. You lose some credibility.

>because the defunded police don't respond to them

Police have been ignoring small property crime as a waste of their time for far longer than anyone has called for defunding them. I couldn't get small town police to do anything about my stolen bike that was tagged and visibly sitting outside the house of the guy who took it. Wasn't worth taking anyone off speed-trap duty.
That's legitimately insane to me. Plus you don't even get that satisfying clunk of turning the blinkers on.

But that’s not what parent meant. Those things should be embedded in the git repository itself, in some kind of structure below the .git/ directory. That would indeed make the entire OSS ecosystem more resilient. We don’t need a myriad of incompatible git web GUIs, but a standard way of storing project management metadata alongside version control data. GitHub, Gitea, Gitlab, and this project could all store their data in there instead of proprietary databases, making it easy to migrate projects.

JXL is a pretty good extension. I'd pronounce it "jixel" to rhyme with pixel.

JPEG-Eon, or JPEG-Era might have given the impression of "long-term"? Jeon is a Korean fritter, which I like the sound of. I don't think you could have Jera without causing a clash with Jira for some vowel pronunciations??

JPEG-NX, JPEG-Next, would have been good, .jnx, "jinx", ...

Or, how about just JPEN, for JPEG-New?

Honestly, if it's also for non-photographic images then a break from even using "JPEG" would be useful in not weighing the format down with that baggage.

I too thought it was likely optimised for very large [photographic] images.

Reminds me of a rumor in the first dotcom boom, where it was said that Larry Ellison would do 'laptop clay pidgeon shooting' from his yacht(s). He allegedly would have entire pallets of laptops carted onto the ships, take it out to open water, have some sort of contraption launch the laptops over sea and guests would shoot at them like you would at clay pidgeons. Seemed to be too outrageous to be true, but at the time (if I recall correctly) there were pictures of the setup on the boat. But this would have been 25 years ago, maybe I'm misremembering. I did a quick google but nothing obvious shows up. Anyway recall this?
Apart from the logical notion of fix location tactile feedback physical buttons are much much better (reliable!) in mission critical systems than pleasuring a glass with the strokes of you finger in heist discovery what is what and where (that the US navy also discovered through bitter and tragic experience [1]) as a complicating factor the user hostile software engineering practices where The Product is in the focus and drawing lots of additional attention, requiring constant self training - ironically presented as 'intuitive' or 'simple' - additional frequent maintenance and care, more than necessary (updates, settings, confirmations, feature promotions, suggestions, configurations, customizations), not to mention the manipulation of the user into something as the main focus in making apps nowadays instead of serving in the background, also not to mention the constant spying for their own sake only, also the constant f ups making the system dangerously fragile through complexity that additional steps and even more user attentions is essential(!) to preserve the integrity against intruders - making it even more complex and so, fragile -, and that this became a totally accepted treat of software from a huge set of users as well - several times arguing aginst themselves by praising and 'explaining' (no, citing a particular viewpoint is not an explanation alone) - but at least not condemned beyond private audience or leading to refusal, therefore when we talk about our next car an older model (likely used) with traditional dashboard is an overwhelmingly dominant choice with my wife. After our current 'old' and traditional one. The irony is that I make software for living, I am supposed to love using software. No, I do not. In general, regrettably. Should be pushed out of many places it got into along undigested rush (and many times dumb) ideas. Like this, like the dashboard of a car, replacing well known and familiar ways with something else. Should I instead be greateful that we still have steering wheel and pedals instead of a gamepad?....

My 8-9 year old niece can't speak because of this. Our language has gendered nouns and she can't differentiate between them. She would say Mister to a woman or Mrs to a guy. Or call a guy a she, but this isn't just the only problem, but the conjugations as well.

The problem of course lay with the parents. Not to mention they let her use a regular YT account, well her fathers to be exact and I found out my niece had bookmarked 18+ videos on YT...which I promptly deleted and installed YT kids only for her father to revert to regular YT...on which I then activated child mode or whatever it is.

Bach is my absolute favorite, but not in listening time (playing he is, though). Since some time, I've been using YouTube to find lesser known composers, and there are really so many. Not that they deserve to be as well known as e.g. Bach, but some really deserve a wider audience.

In the mornings, I too look for more harmonic music, although e.g. Poulenc is still good.

Contemporary music is ok for later, but it's a more difficult find. Some of it is great, though. Don't be afraid of it. It doesn't have a good name, but there is quite a lot of variation in contemporary music, from harsh, microtonal pleep-ploop sounds to shimmering minimal music and reflective music with a bit of an edge, and anything between.
I think with your fanboi attitude you should not participate in public conversations. Your style of communication is immature and does not belong to places like HN.

Now having said that, for someone like you, who is unable to understand the reason for LTS distros, like Debian and Redhat derivatives, I am explaining again: if were actually running FreeBSD machines (like I do on some desktops), you would notice it constantly receives small updates, like (random examnple) dav1d codec got updated recently, although I do not really need such an update much, which is absolutely unacceptable in many server usage scenarios: you want to have stable, stale software with known bugs, you know very well and learned to love; the only thing you want is security updates.

Many, many people in FreeBSD community seem to fail to understand that~5 years of support of "old" postgres is not the same as what is done in say debian; you do not want even minor of minorest changes of the version of the package, not even bugfix unless it is a critical or security bugfix.

It is how it is in most server scenarios, deal with it.

I'm am a retired old bloke who has used linux for about 20 years since the early releases of ubuntu and linux mint.

I do my best to advise and promote linux to all my elderly friends and have even installed linux as a replacement to windows for a few of them. Once they get used to Linux they are forever smitten. The increased speed and ease of use is nothing like windows complexity.

Even I struggle with windows, that damn search box, what is that really about but to confuse. Windows is supposed to be a personal computer not a time travelling machine, so whats the issue with updates taking a millennium. I got better things to do than wait for that unnecessary waste of time.

It must be brainwashing and propaganda that convinces people that a windows machines are better in some way.

I watch my friends struggling with their windows data collecting machines and I cry inside.
