> The 1000 number came from you. I have no idea where you got it from,

It's an arbitrary example of an error rate you'd have a 90% chance of missing in your sample size of 100 machine-hours, yet much too high for almost any meaningful application.

I have no idea what the actual error rate of that btrfs bug is; my only point is that your original assertion of "I've experienced 100 error-free hours, so this is a non-issue for me and my users" is a non sequitur.

> This is weirdly sensationalist: I don't get it. Nobody dies when their filesystem gets corrupted. Nobody even loses money, unless they've been negligent.

I don't know what to say to that other than that I wish I had your optimism on reliable system design practices across various industries.

Maybe there's a parallel universe where people treat every file system as having an error rate of something like "data corruption/loss once every four days", but it's not the one I'm familiar with.

For better or worse, the bar for file system reliability is much, much, much, much higher than anything you could reasonably produce empirical data for unless you're operating at Google/AWS etc. scale.
the shade issue seems to be an issue with wayland and whatnot as far i can tell..
Are these the same folks that did the parrot videoconferencing thing?

Considering private repos used to require a paid subscription misremembering seems likely.

It used to be public by default, and enough people got confused by this that AWS & Github used to specifically scan repo's for accidentally public AWS credentials.

Do you do much DS/ML in Python? I definitely agree that pip is totally fine otherwise.

At work, I've been giving out about pip to one of our DEs for a while, and when he needed to upgrade a bunch of DS packages he finally started coming around to my opinion.
Ask me in 20 years. There are a lot of worring signs right now that things will get bad, but nobody really knows.

When the Soviet Union broke down 30 years ago the US decided the biggest worries were small countries (Iran in particular), and things like 9/11 proved they were right. However Russia is now attacking Ukraine and many think that countries like Poland or Latvia (both in NATO) are next. China is setting up so that they could take military action to take Taiwan, and other countries in the area. Nobody knows for sure if either of these predictions will come to pass, but there are signs that should worry you.
Of course. Where would you like to start? Mis/Disinfo campaigns, cognitive biases, review of scientific method?
Buybacks and dividends are not the same thing. Buybacks get preferential tax treatment and are in their entirety manipulative (that's why they were banned under SEC rules until Reagan deregulated capital markets) to the market it serves. Dividends are predictable, have a consistent rate across the years and are pretty much impossible to game the market with, as they return value to shareholders over a longer time period, avoiding temporary volatility.

> I'm skeptical of the idea that some repairs are meant to be performed only by "experts"

If you're skeptical of this very banal notion than you are likely not qualified to be doing whatever work you're doing. Yes, tons of technology is needlessly complicated and the salesmen and their compatriots in the "no user serviceable parts inside" sticker division have spent a lot of time and effort to convince people that the inside of electronic devices is sacrosanct; however that has led to an IMHO dangerous notion that every instance of someone saying "hey, you really shouldn't take this apart on your home bench" is regarded with suspicion, or some notion of "they just want you to buy a new one!" and not that, sometimes things break and if they're designed well, they may well have a failure mode that prevents a much worse failure mode.

And it might be expertise that's the dividing line, but it could just as easily be a matter of the material itself: that sometimes, what's in there is pretty fucking dangerous actually and shouldn't be messed with by just any old guy, even a technical guy, who has a YouTube tutorial. It might be that the parts inside failed for a reason and replacing them, while it makes whatever thing work again, might not actually be a great idea depending on why the original ones failed and that if you don't know the answer to that question, blindly putting them back might be setting you up for something disastrous.

I'm 100% a believer in the right to repair, but I do not mean for that always to be myself. On the rare occasion I take something apart with lithium cells inside (which I avoid at all costs!), I handle them like live grenades and either re-connect them to whatever managing circuitry or, if whatever it is is beyond fixing, disposing of them safely. I don't do this because I don't understand them: I know intimately how they work. I do this because I understand them and respect the danger they pose, not unlike firearms or the parts of my car that I know I don't know enough and am not qualified to fix.

Being intelligent is, IMO, oftentimes more about knowing what you don't know and respecting that than knowing what you know.

And, as an aside just because it's related to this point I've articulated: do not take apart lithium batteries in an apartment. I don't give a shit what your qualifications are or how good your risk assessment might be, you do not have the right to take into your hands the safety of yourself and at the same time, every other person currently occupying the structure you inhabit. That is just not your risk to accept, full stop. You are not an island and all the high minded libertarian nonsense you can muster cannot get around the fact that if you make a mistake, no matter how benign in the moment, you could damn well set other people's homes on fire with zero warning for them.

KDE is truly a great DE. I am still on 5.27, have not upgraded to 6 yet (Debian woes, lol) but considering all the praise I have heard - it is probably even better than the experience I have now which is solid. I am running Debian 12 with Wayland on AMD hardware. Everything "just works". I can record stuff with OBS studio, loom recording works, slack calls/screensharing works great, vscode, 1pass, spotify. I have been a macOS user since Tiger (10.4, intel transition) and have dabbled on and off with desktop Linux over the last decade but lately it is truly solid and quite polished.

I don't get it either. Cities were dying for decades until people with money decided to move back into them and then they began to thrive. In fact, the actual data shows that as a city becomes more expensive it becomes more desirable and attracts more people and the city begins to grow. Places that were once considered off limits become spaces that are coveted. It's a flywheel that brings more and more prosperity. The best way to ruin that is to introduce masses of poor people to these areas. We did this in the starting in the late 1950's and the cities began to empty out because of the crime that came with it.

As the poor constituency builds greater numbers they attract politicians that promise them things by stealing from those with money. This in turn chases those people away and the city is left poorer and poorer and becomes worse and worse. Once nice areas become undesirable and decay sets in.

Even still, both repos had READMEs [1][2] clearly meant to be read by the public. The archival was only successful years ago, with a failed snapshot as far back as 2021 [3]. This really seems like they forgot it was ever public.

Now, this is only about it being a GitHub breach. Whether unlicensed (emenel/portfolio) or GPL (emenel/dust) code should be allowed in such datasets is a different matter.

> But even ignoring my projects that involve multiple languages simultaneously, I still regularly use several languages in total, even if only one per project. So having a build system that's independent of the language is still highly desirable.

Ah, that’s a difference between us: I prefer to always use one primary language, and all others are secondary languages selected per-project. So it makes sense for me to just use a system built in my primary choice.

> My answer to that is "no, never", of course.

Agreed, too! In principle upgrading the compiler should have no effect whatsoever on correct, portable programs. OTOH, there sure do seem to be an awful lot of incorrect and unportable programs out there!

Who manufactured the problem here? It isn't just that these systems exist solely for individuals to be selected for by vulnerability, but that the people best poised to protect them are so effectively excluded from any sign of it.

With the compensation deferral setup (like Ohtani in MLB), I'm curious if the influence of the caps will be eroded.
I suspect it depends on the field, but in my experience it’s often a good indicator of success. A shoddy letter betrays a lack of professionalism. If you’re not going to spend 10 minutes running a spell checker it means that either it’s not important to you, so good bye, or that your standards are really low and you will keep producing garbage if I hire you, so good bye as well.

The problem with cover letters is false positive (people who did not write the letter themselves, or who did it to a much higher standard than their usual). But then, that’s what interviews are for.

I did hire a couple of people with either a subpar CV (some good people sometimes end up in dead ends or difficult situations), or cover letter (not everyone is a great writer), or reference (your issues with your former boss are not always your fault), or interview (you can have a bad day), so I would not rely on a single factor. But a combination of 2 dodgy elements is an automatic rejection. Each one tends to surface different aspects.

Not sure where in construction he was, but I've worked framing crews before, and the boss would hire anybody (not disabled) who said they were willing to work hard. It isn't hard to teach someone the basic tasks and most people could catch on in just an hour. Most people though realized it was physically hard work and quit in a week (even though this should be obvious).

Some days this monologue from Westworld rings true:

“ I think humanity is a thin layer of bacteria on a ball of mud hurtling through the void. I think if there was a God, he would’ve given up on us long ago. He gave us a paradise and we used everything up. We dug up every ounce of energy and burned it. We consume and excrete, use and destroy. Then we sit here on a neat little pile of ashes, having squeezed anything of value out of this planet, and we ask ourselves, “Why are we here?” You want to know what I think your purpose is? It’s obvious. You’re here along with the rest of us to speed the entropic death of this planet. To service the chaos. We’re maggots eating a corpse”

These aren't financial hobbyists.

At $48,560, these are mostly people who don't have a lot of money relative to their living expenses, and are doing what they need to do in order to not feel totally broke. < $50k in a lot of places was already getting hard to raise a family on, even before Covid, all the moreso if you're paying full price for ACA exchange insurance, which was then and remains now disgustingly expensive.
For Mouse ergonomics, there is hot corner which is great. You can open activities overview by flicking the mouse into the top left corner. Then click the app you want.

As far as discoverability, they have Gnome Tour now which opens on first launch that explains all this stuff interactively.

It's just a preference thing, I loathe the small program chaining style and cannot work with it at all. Give me a python script and I'm good though. I can't for the life of me imagine why people would want to do pseudo programming through piping magic when chaining is so limited compared to actual programming
But I didn't say any of that. Walk or ride - do whatever you like. But in the new world, one option will have been removed - driving. I'm not cheering the loss of that. I'm for free choice. You seem to be arguing in favour of removing other peoples' choices. And you think that's right! Who made you (or the Paris mayor) king/queen of the world?

I'm also saying, artificially creating issues by removing roads, making them one way etc, in order to create terrible traffic, in order to then justify removing cars completely, is a form of manipulative abuse, being inflicted on people by government. I'm not going to cheer abusive behaviour.
That depends. When I was young and the weather was nice the physical labor job sounded really nice. However physical labor also means when it is -1C and raining, or 40C with no clouds.

Python's behavior is not a hack, it is the common behavior. $ matches at the end of the string or before the last character if that is a newline, which is logically the same as the end of a single line. But as you said, you can have additional newlines inside of the string which is also the common behavior and not specific to python. Personally I think of this as you just assume that the string is a single line and match $ accordingly, either at the end of the string or before a terminating newline, if there are additional newlines, you treat them mostly as normal characters, with the exception of dot not matching newlines unless you set the single-line/dot-all flag.

I know everyone cites this as the innovators dilemma, but so far the evidence suggests this isn't true.

ChatGPT has been around for a while now, and it hasn't led to a collapse in Google's search revenue, and in fact now Google is rushing to roll out their version instead of trying to entrench search.

A famous example is the iPhone killing the iPod, and it took around 3 and a half years for the iPod to really collapse, so chat and co-pilots might be early still. On the other hand handheld consumer electronics have much longer buying cycles than software tools.
