I knew this line would get scrutinized. My bad, I didn't phrase it well.

It's the difference between letting grief out and letting grief in.

I owe many women close to me, who've helped me process complex emotions. But they've primarily focused on helping let emotions out.

I suspect women don't struggle with letting grief in as often. It is more common for this to be a male experience. Helping a man feel safe enough to slowly let grief in, is a delicate exercise in patience and silence. I hadn't seen it represented this well in visual form before.

It was also instrumental in helping me detect when I myself was refusing to let emotions in. Now I can tell if I'm running away from a sense of loss/negative emotion. It helps me extend that same patience towards myself.
Took you long enough :P. Nonetheless, it’s also a beautiful proof.
In this application, it would probably look like a transparent liquid crystal display on top of the phone. Usually LCDs are modulating the polarity of light, and you have polarizing filters before and after so that the modulation of polarity results in modulation of intensity; but I've read about other ways to arrange the LCD such that you modulate the phase of the light passing through instead, that's what you need for holography (although I thought you needed a coherent light source)

Here's a commercially available SLM based on reflective Liquid Crystal on Silicon (similar to what you might find in an LCD projector), that actually has listed prices:

I've always had a house but I can't remember a strong sense of feeling at home.

I don't really like my family. In college I spent 3 years waiting for life to happen, and by the time I started to enjoy it I had to move out. Then I spent about 10 years just saving money at the first job that made me an offer.

I've lived a very privileged and sheltered life but I'm in my 30s and never really lived anywhere on purpose or thought "ah I'm home". Even the house I live in now I hate. My next move will at least have a little intention to it.

In German language we have two compound works:

* "Heimweh" (what the articles names as "Nostalgia")
* "Fernweh"

The common part, "weh", means something like the english "hurt".

"Heim" means "home"

"Fern" means "abroad" or "distant".

Since Germans are VERY travel friendly (e.g. if we can pay for it, we do one holiday per year in a foreign country), we're people that have a high amount of "Fernweh". But ... "Fernweh" for us is mostly only some mild kind of yearning. If we cannot travel, e.g. due to finances or due to COVID-19, we won't die. The extreme form of "Heimweh" described in the article however is some kind of serious illness. Something that one will never attribute to "Fernweh".
Reproducible and minimal source-only tarballs
Neovim also has $NVIM_APPNAME which lets one change which directory inside is looked at.

I spent a while a bit back trying different prepackaged neovim setups (before ultimately settling in AstroVim) and it was so checking convenient being able to download one of these setups, stuff it in ~/.config/astrovim or what not, and set NVIM_APPNAME to try it. It made me really see that the XDG directory spec is like half the battle, half the programmability.

Nice to see vim growing into some well established standards. Afaik this whole APPNAME thing doesn't have any write ups, no specs, but would love to see it speced up and propagated further.
We use Liquibase with git. DB changes required for the corresponding code changes are required to be committed as a Liquibase changelog with the same branch name, and the PRs both need approval.

What we are not good about is making sure the changelogs have revert capability... some devs do it right and others not so much
I have had challenges with readability. The output is good for blogs but when we try it for other type of content, it misses on important details even when the page is quite text-heavy just like blog.
"Sehnsucht" is however more general than the seeked word "Fernweh".

See my other post on "Heimweh" vs. "Fernweh" here.

It works with redis-py (which python-rq uses), but I doubt it will be any good in this case. python-rq seems to use Lua scripting in Redis, which is not planned for 1.0. I'd rather not add it at all, but we'll see.

This is one of the best explanations that I’ve seen on the topic. I wish there was more work, however, not on how Transfomers work, but why they work. We are still figuring it out, but I feel that the exploration is not at all systematic.
> phone/laptop charger for comms

You may not need to do that for long, depending where you live. My wired ISP does not provide service if there's no utility power at their box down the street. The cell towers provide service for about 2-4 hours. And after that, I've got inbound only comms (radio / tv).
Correct me if I'm wrong, but this plugin just removes stuff that the site puts over the content to restrict it. It doesn't fool the site into sending the content to the user's computer; it's already done that. Am I wrong in this?

IMO, there needs to be shift in understanding. They sent their information to my computer. Whatever I do with what they sent is my business, not theirs. It's on my computer. And yet they want it to stop.

IMO, if you want it to stop, don't be lazy; don't send it in the first place.

Then a bypass might have CFAA behind it.

These are the same people who want to use my bandwidth and CPU capacity to track me everywhere I go on the web. If they can make legal claims about what I do with the information they send to my computer, I should be able to make legal claims for them using my own computer against me without my consent.

Of course, I'm also more than a little drunk at the moment, so what do I know?

I’d respectfully suggest you go look at the forest lab reports before just dismissing them. Literally, it’s public domain, we spent tons of money on the research and your vibes about how the lumber looks compared to the structural tests they ran might not hold up.

The “simple” homes you’ve seen that have tongue in groove planks or solid wood floors were the exception in housing. It was literally the very good stuff. Most housing prior to ww2 had dirt floors! Post ww2 it was concrete slab. Solid brick housing was a huge luxury item. Most housing in the US was wood plank.

In cities solid brick apartment buildings were more common prior to ww2, but they’d have aesthetic brick in the front and “common” brick on the sides. Interior walls would just be the exterior wall. Dry wall and insulation was effectively unheard of.

You are literally describing survivor bias.
I just use a Podman container to sandbox all the "closed-source / not from my distro's repo" software. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34634584

Normally this is Ubuntu / Debian, but if I had TFA's specific problem of "I want the software to use my distro's /usr" I'd use a container with the base image of my distro.

I don't bother sharing dbus, but if you did want to share (a subset of) it as TFA does, then yes xdg-dbus-proxy is a necessity.

Can confirm this. The second attack is potentially fatal.
You're missing the point. What I'm saying is that the metric system is built around base 10, not because of its properties, but because it's the base we use in general - and the simplicity of having one single system with seamless conversions.

Arguing in favour of base 12 systems would make sense if it seemed doable to introduce more numerals and replace base 10 altogether, in my opinion, but that's not realistic.

Besides, if you live somewhere where the metric system is used, and you're unable to manually measure and cut one third of a meter (0.333m/33.3cm/333mm/333333µm) with the same speed and precision as you would be able to using a yard-stick - then you probably shouldn't be allowed near the tools needed in the first place.

PS. In practice, the boss would've asked you for a piece that is either 3dm, 33cm or 333mm long, indicating the expected precision.

I hope the technical debt does not explode on me one day so i'll ignore it.

On last 10 years 250,000 missiles were prepared in the north to attack israel, 10,000 in gaza, Iraq, Syria, Yemen all are collecting weapons to attack israel + not to talk about Iran nuclearization. Iran clearly states it's going to destroy israel. So when you say hope this does not escalete how do you deal with all these missiles and soon to be nuclear missiles? just let israel vanish from the map?

I fully understand Israel is not our concern, but should we leave it to have a second holocaust?

You're conflating meaning with facts. The meaning you give your life is internal and inherently subjective. External reality is not.

Fuel mass is very much the limiting factor. "Electric" or "ion" propulsion of this general type are used on satellites for things like orbit raising or orbit maintenance. They don't provide very much thrust, but they provide a very high ISP (often 10x what would be possible for a chemical reaction propellant), which typically translates to a longer lifespan for a vehicle or the ability to carry less reaction mass and more payload.

I upgraded to a 13 after having a 10 forever. Magsafe (introduced with 12) is a nice feature, though I guess it can be jury rigged into older iPhones via a case? And Apple key is nice, although that was more of an Apple Watch upgrade. Unless they make some break through with on-phone low latency conversational AI (or something similar), I can't see myself finding a reason to upgrade.

I get the feeling that people with cheap Android phones might upgrade more often, but I have no evidence to back that up.
We have the schema encoded in our own XML format, and our tool for applying such an XML doesn't do destructive operations. We also have no logic in stored procs. So schema changes are very safe and doesn't need much additional review.

We commit schema file alongside the rest of the code, and it gets applied as part of the CI run to our dev and QA/test DBs.

So not a direct answer I suppose, but it really cuts down on what you need to do manually against the DB.

Yes.

“I have to go to work — as a human being. What do I have to complain of, if I’m going to do what I was born for — the things I was brought into the world to do? Or is this what I was created for? To huddle under the blankets and stay warm?"

"Also, as Encrypted Client Hello is about to start soon, it will be exponentially harder for eavesdroppers to figure out which sites you are trying to visit."

Exponentially? Can we see the data on that. Perhaps this word as used here is just a figure of speech.

"Tor Browser uses uncountable techniques that prevent tracking your browser."

Tor Browser has a number of popular browser "features" removed/disabled by default. As such the browser user does not need to do anything, no fiddling with poorly-documented options via about:config, user.js or whatever. IMHO, modifications like these would be useful even when not submitting requests through the Tor network. The question I have is why is there not a Firefox version that is like Tor Browser but without the Tor integration.

Perhaps the answer is because Mozilla is trying to perpetuate online ads, i.e., surveillance, data collection and tracking, as a "business model", such as the model adopted by Google. Mozilla is wholly dependant on financial support from Google. If Google's online ads business fails, Mozilla is out of options.

NB. I would never use Tor Browser. I am a text-only browser user and I prefer netcat and other TCP clients through one or more localhost-bound proxies for making HTTP requests. When I experiment with Tor, I use tor binary I compiled myself without relay module. In front of the tor SOCKS proxy, I use socat for requests to .onion sites that use HTTPS and tinyproxy for requests to .onion sites that use HTTP.^1

1. If anyone can explain why some .onion sites use HTTPS instead of HTTP, I would be interested to know the anwser. AFAICT, most .onion sites use HTTP.

Tor reminds me of the early public internet. Submitting a request like an Archie search and having to wait seconds for a response. Also the number of .onion sites is relatively small. I like the uniformity of .onion addresses and the general absence of "vanity" names. And the search engine for it reminds me of the web pre-Google: like AltaVista, thousands of results are accessible. That's the way I like it. None of this collecting data from searches and trying to "guess" what someone is searching for (as Google does).
So by your logic, because a handful of people are farmers, then everyone in rural areas is a farmer? Brilliant.

This is the whole thing to me. Companies like YT have no right to force me to see stuff I don't want to, or bypass what I say goes on in my browser (i.e., an adblocker)
