That might hold more weight for me if it weren't the easiest thing in the world to install bash! Like literally `brew install bash` will do it, right? That way I'm not reliant on Apple at all, which seems optimal when we're talking about features they don't build and that aren't their focus. I'm very happy to let Apple do the things they're good at and the community do the things they're good at.
Most high efficiency gas cars are far quieter than electric cars with the required noise makers these days. Pedestrian warning noises should also apply to gas cars.
Of course not, that's how democracy works!

My actual issue with this is:

a) it should have been done sooner. Waiting until $election_year to do something popular has severely damaged the growth of cannabis industry

and b) it's another executive branch rule by decree that could be reversed as soon as 6 months from now after election day.

Right. "A sample of 529 (52% men) undergraduate business students were surveyed..." The sample is one of convenience, not validity. Psychology is supposed to be past that point, from the replication crisis. This says more about the quality of "Current Issues in Personality Psychology" than it does about the subject matter.
It's more like the stuff that doesn't work is being pushed again.

Yes it's possible to do this. I wrote up a scheme for that years ago that I called "proof of passport". You can create anonymous identities tied to a hash of your epassport certificate using SGX enclaves and some careful protocol design.

Needless to say, such ideas make some people very unhappy, although it can be done in a way that doesn't grant governments any new powers they don't already have. The most common objection is from Americans who make the same arguments they make about elections: some people don't have id of any kind and shouldn't be expected to get one.

You can also of course buy identities from people who don't care, as a sibling comment says. But that's inevitable for any identity system where identities can be had cheaply.
No, they did have them tested and knew they wouldn't pass NIOSH testing. Page 17: https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/ftc_gov/pdf/Razer-PACER-No1....

I encourage everyone to read the complaint, there is no grey area here and no accidents. This was explicit fraudulent behavior by executives (including the CEO) who knew their mask didn't work very well, knew what "N95" means and that their mask couldn't qualify, and made many conscious decisions to lie to the public anyway.
It's incredibly weather-dependent. I bicycled the width of Nevada over 5 days from Yosemite NP to St George UT, and was basically fine. Sweat evaporated immediately.

A couple years ago, my wife and I thru-hiked the Long Trail and got one (1) shower in 20 days. It was pretty rough despite availing ourselves of every opportunity to get a dip in a stream or pond (no soap). A day or two removed from a shower, we both felt pretty scuzzy. Everything got greasy and gross.

For context, we both thru-hiked the AT before we met; we are used to going without showers for days at a stretch. 10 was too many in the early summer humidity.
It was definitely fun when it worked! It's a shame Firefox (well, Gecko) isn't nearly as repackageable/embeddable as it used to be. Alternative gecko browsers like Camino were so good.

> Right now, most devices on the market do not support the C extension

That's outright false.

And outside of the actual devices, the whole software ecosystem very much uses the C extension.

Qualcomm simply wants to break the standard to make money, that literally all it is.

> Qualcomm wants to remove it because it is actively harmful for fast implementations

Funny how not a single company other then Qualcomm argues this. Not Ventara, not Si-Five, not Esperanto, not Tenstorrent, non of the companies form China.

Its almost, almost as if it not that big of a deal and Qualcomm simply want to same money and reuse ARM IP.

> The solution to fragmentation is to just disable the C extension everywhere, but SiFive doesn't want to hear that.

Literally nobody except Qualcomm wants to hear it. It wasn't even a discussion before Qualcomm. All the other companies had plenty of opportunity to bring up issues in all the working groups, and nobody did. Literally not a single company gave a talk, talking about how the C extension was holding them back. In fact most of them were saying the opposite.
I had it in two last jobs in Germany (and had to wait them and also when we hire and do roadmaps we know that the person will not start before the next or the quarter after the next) as all of my coworkers, except few. These were executive and had 6 months notice periods.

Not that I complain, six months of rest and vest life wasn’t bad :-)
> 3 months notice tends to apply to people who have been there a hell of a long time. At least in the UK.

Increasingly not the case. I'm seeing an awful lot of "One month in the first three months, three months thereafter". It used to be pretty universally one month.

I find merino wool tshirts can be worn for several days, whereas polyester tshirts marketed as “moisture wicking” will be stinky in a matter of hours.

If I wear one of the latter for a workout, if I don’t take a shower immediately, then I at least change into a cotton or wool shirt afterward.

That's a VC perspective. Sure they'll never be a massive 1B company, but they can be successful businesses for 2 to 5 people teams
I've never really had that trouble. There are typically relatively few places that

1. a given interface is provided via a DI module
2. said modules are included in a binary

With decent codesearch, finding the implementation of a particular injection for a given deployed binary is usually a fairly short search.

I'm sure there is all sorts of extra voodoo you can get up to, but the straightforward DI case is, well, straightforward.

On it's surface it seems to have worked better than these experiments. Otherwise the experiments would not be getting rolled back...

There's very few if any fans of what played out in Portland, for instance. Overt drug usage exploded and became a much worse problem. The exact opposite of what proponents had hoped.

Some will say "but they didn't do it right" or similar - tired arguments we hear every time pet policies fail.
The bizarre intermediary forms are specifically those that do not appear, and that would make no evolutionary sense to exist. Things like feathers. Now, evolutionists will come up with fanciful untested (untestable), unobserved (unobservable) narratives in attempt to jam such cases into their world view – and that's all well and good, I do the same. I just don't pretend to call my interpretation scientific, I call it religious/faith-based. They'd do well to do the same.

I think that's the point of this article to be honest.

If we lived in a fair and just world, the EU having the 4th largest economy doesn't seem like a bad thing. Going by numbers alone China (1.8bn) and India (1.5bn) are much more populace than the EU (450mln).

However, I would would probably side with the author and personally much prefer a group of liberal democracies following the rule of law to always be on top. If the world needs to bow to autocracies then we will have a bad time, Russia is just the prelude.

I don't dispute your points but to have an honest comparison you do need to consider the amount of harm negated during the time of incarceration.

Home users don't usually have the money to rent another building.

What I do for my personal setup is RAID + nightly backup (3 drives total) in one machine, and then a 4th hard drive that normally lives airgapped in a rental storage unit that I bring home and sync every 6 months or so.

The nightly backup serves to always fetch yesterday's version of any file, and deals with 99% of scenarios that I'd need a real backup.

The 1% (hackers + fires/disasters) is taken care of by the storage unit but I lose the last 6 months of changes.
Everybody will do something "wrong" or "bad" at some point in their lives. Behavior is also usually on a spectrum. Some people might see something as inappropriate, but this is highly dependent on interpretation and perspective. Few things are unambiguously wrong. Yes, you can judge people by their actions. But the people who see somebody not put their shopping cart away once and form a negative opinion aren't exactly balanced. And you see this kind of crap all the time on social media.

« But India is one country »

I am sorry but this argument cannot be dismissed.

The reason why Europe struggles to implement changes is precisely because it is not a single country but a large group of countries represented by complex bodies where politics strive.

I use Mint day to day but used fedora briefly when I wanted to use Pipewire as an audio stack. Fedora is great, but mint is a bit simpler. I think I'll switch to fedora to use Silverblue at some point. Cinnamon is definitely the goat DE and it's not even close imo. But I think Linux Mint is probably the better distro ATM just cause it's a bit simpler

I'm pretty sure the attitude to work depends whether you are a startup or not, whom you hire and on what conditions. It makes sense to work 12 hours a day in your 20ies when you have no other things to do and get a piece of what you are building in return. Otherwise, it's just business -- company wants me to work more and pay less, I want the opposite, so I pay my union fees and don't touch work laptop after 6pm ever.

On this point, I suspect something:

(Some) Europeans work more hours, but less efficiently

Go to a supermarket in Germany, see how quick a cashier rings your order. (yes self-checkout does exist)

And this is not only a North/South (or West) divide. Germans have their way of wasting "work energy" in some micro-bureaucracies in one way or another (and still they are more efficient than the average worker)

Some other southern countries will waste more time doing some things while in some other areas they will be the fastest/least-bs players around.

> But Americans definitely love talking about how hard they work; way more than we do.

Can't disagree with this.
There's still just so much fucking garbage though. Yesterday I was wondering if I ought to switch to a flipphone so my son doesn't see me playing on my smartphone so much, so I headed over to /r/dumbphones to try and get a feel for what's currently a good option. I figured I'd look through the top posts of the last month to find good discussion. Instead, the top post is some dipshit meme, and all but 1 or 2 of the first 25 posts are "my EDC as an 18/f/cali", just pictures of the contents of their pockets!

Because there's no way to have "the EDC thread" or the "post pics of your phone" thread, this low-effort shit fills the subreddit.

We don't have to use their stuff. systemd actually does a good job of managing services' up and down state - it's the rest of the bundled functionality that people take issue with - and if service up and down is all you want, there's runit.

Wayland seems to be a solution without a problem, and it's only winning by default. I've toyed with the idea of forking Xorg - the code is a bit odd by today's standards, but I didn't find any direct problem with it, and it works fine - the biggest problem I discovered in Xorg is a lack of project management as nobody knows what it should and shouldn't do

My gentoo system has some gentoo-specific fork of udev without systemd in it.

We don't have to use run0 and can just use sudo.

Yes, because Prohibition was such a ringing success. Just because someone says you can't do something does not prevent someone from doing that thing. If people want something badly enough, they will find a way. When that want has progressed to being a literal need from addiction, the ways found will become more and more bold/risky.

Hell, even if you added the drug that blocks the opiate receptors into the water supply like fluoride so everyone is getting dosed, addicts will just switch to bottle water. Legislation does not prevent anything. It only increases those deemed as a criminal.

Original author here:

A. Some parts of the economy will grow. Some will shrink. My claim is that if you believe that AI will create new efficiencies and continue to do so, then overall economic growth will increase at a faster rate than ever.

B. Predicting what architecture could lead to this growth is beyond the scope of this article. The point was to say that if we keep getting increased efficiencies we'll get increased growth.

C. Job creation accelerates. Before I was hired at OpenAI in 2020, nobody on the planet had ever been hired as a prompt engineer. Now it's a career (at least for the time being.)

D. I'm assuming maximizing profit in the most near-sighted way possible. Same as it has ever been.

Is there a specific claim or argument that you disagree with?

Rehabilitation is all the rage around these parts, but there are other reasons for prisons. One of the purposes of prison is to protect the public from dangerous people. Another aspect is the instructive element; you send a message to the rest of society about what kind of behavior will or won't be tolerated.

This man should be executed. It would be a fitting punishment for both of those reasons and more. He caused at least one suicide and victimized tens of thousands. This is a crime that calls for the death penalty.
Reality is more nuanced than that, because even if the newer software is worse, if it markets itself better it can persuade other projects to drop support for the old software.

In my experience, American and European software developers work similarly "hard", that is not explanatory. There are noticeable cultural differences in how they spend their working time.

American software developers have a tendency toward more ambitious and therefore risky solutions to problems, which have a higher variance in outcomes. European software development seems to gravitate toward what is seen as the safe conservative solution always. You may find yourself working more hours to deal with the risks that materialize as an American but sometimes that ambition pays off and you make a significant leap forward, and I suspect there is a higher sense of satisfaction with this result when it pans out. Particularly in the west coast tech cities, tolerance for both the risk of ambitious approaches and dealing with the consequences is dialed up anomalously high, that is just the water you swim in.

With the higher risk tolerance, both cultural and what the business allows, comes a requirement to be willing to work extra hours when needed for when it blows up in your face. This is sporadic, most days they don't work any harder than Europeans. Many Americans value the freedom to take ambitious risks more than they hate the downsides of that risk-taking.
