Containers are not compute environments, their runtimes are, and gvisor (runsc) is one implementation of that. Docker engine (~runc) is another. It has similar performance characteristics to gvisor afaict looking online (the minimum cold start times I'm seeing are 500ms which I've beat in gvisor), yet implements less security features.

If by virtualization you mean VMs, gvisor can be more performant than those based on my experience. For example, AWS claims a p0 coldstart time of ~500ms using Firecracker but I know firsthand that applications sandboxed by gvisor can be made to cold start in significantly less time (like less than half): https://catalog.workshops.aws/java-on-aws-lambda/en-US/03-sn..., and you should be able to confirm this yourself by using products that leverage Gvisor under the hood or with your own testing. I actually worked on this (using gvisor, but working on adjacent tech) for years...

> Have we broken out of containers yet?

Sure, how about https://scout.docker.com/vulnerabilities/id/CVE-2024-21626 where runc (Docker) exposed the host filesystem to containerized applications? Precisely the kind of exploit gvisor is designed to prevent.

I'll note that a lot of people are thinking about how to reduce sandbox overhead in multitenant PaaS and it's one of the things I want to eventually address in my own startup. But I think blindly hating on gvisor because of a nebulous dislike of overhead really is misplaced without considering its alternatives.
Nobody ever asks if these data centers are actually providing any value to society. There's just this assumption that ever growing compute capacity is a good thing. Then you get into this sort of induced demand situation where more compute capacity exists so people feel like they can use ever more compute capacity for increasingly pointless things.

But it's time we look at each and every workload and decide if it's really worth increasing our energy and water usage as well as devastating our land for it to be possible. Modeling proteins for healthcare? Sure. Generating useless multimedia content that nobody will ever look at? Probably not. Training yet another glorified autocorrect? Definitely not.

People think when they hoard data in ~the cloud~ or waste enormous amounts of resources on things like LLM training there's no harm but it has real impacts.

Average landlord in the US owns like two properties. This is not happening.

There is a conspiracy theory it's happening though - a funny thing is that the people repeating it can't decide if it's caused by "Blackstone" or "BlackRock", which are two different companies that sound the same.

More importantly you can't enforce a cartel in housing without legal force, because every participant is motivated to defect. So the way landowners enforce one is through zoning laws. Just get rid of those!

Like I do think you can go overboard with this. You don't have to turn into Jocko Willinck or become a desert father, but just realizing that you can just grit through stuff even though it may suck, it's so empowering.

I mean realistically if someone was attempting to get you to confess to something and they were torturing you by having you perform all these things you know you should be doing but don't really feel like doing today, it surely wouldn't come even close to breaking you? You've been made to book a dentist appointment to deal with that aching molar and forced to clean the oven and weren't given a cake for desert and now they want you to wash the car as well; if you're begging for mercy surely it's to escape from rolling at the floor form the laughably ineffectual torments.

Since you mentioned Einstein, it reminded me of a comment by Max Born on the subject, from the Born-Einstein letters:

“Einstein expressed over and over again the thought that one should not couple the quest for knowledge with a bread-and-butter profession, but
that research should be done as a private spare-time occupation. He himself wrote the first of his great treatises while earning his living as an employee of the Swiss Patent Office in Bern. He believed that only in
this way could one preserve one's independence. What he did not consider, however, was the organizational rigidity
of almost all professions, and the importance which individual members of a profession attach to their work. No professional pride could develop
without it. To be able successfully to practice science as a hobby, one has
to be an Einstein.”
Fortunately the solution to this problem is the same in the future as it was in the past.

Vulkan has nothing to do with the Steam Deck being able to run PC games other than being the API that DXVK and VKD3D-proton translate DirectX calls into. Vulkan isn’t the magic bullet, it’s just another API in the stack. The “magic” is the phenomenal amount of effort that has gone into those DirectX translation libraries.

Vulkan makes the work easier, but it is not what makes those games portable.
Nice. The P-51 is one of the nicest looking WW2 era fighters.

Though being a 2-seater, this makes the silhouette slightly different from the later variant P-51 everyone is familiar with.

I know real P-51 are sometimes used for acrobatics and air shows, I suppose this replica is just for looks and cannot pull any real acrobatics, right?

High housing costs in the UK are not caused by the royal family. They're caused by the UK (and Ireland) having the worst planning system in the world which makes it illegal to ever build any new housing. It's actually even worse than the US - at least zoning implies you're allowed to do something by right.

The US also has a better tax system since it uses property taxes more often, which reduces land values.
If you nest a pair of "for" loops in a C program and use "i" and "j" as the loop counters, few reviewers would bat an eye. In this context, used consistently, the single letter carries semantic meaning.

In K, lambdas use the variable names "x", "y", and "z" for arguments by default. If you see an "x", it is the function's first argument. If you see a "y" but no "z" in a short definition, you know it's a dyadic (arity 2) function. Removing unnecessary degrees of freedom in this manner (among other conventions and stylistic choices) makes it much more likely that two K programmers will arrive at character-for-character identical solutions to problems. The uniformity and consistency makes idioms and repetition stand out.

Arthur-style C is built on the same basic concept: remove unnecessary degrees of freedom, focus on internal consistency. A very short name can still be descriptive if it is always used to mean the same thing.

> I suggest there is more than one 'opioid crisis' unfolding.

I qualified it as the prescription opioid crisis. It gets conflated with the current fentanyl crisis. But the pill mill crisis peaked decades ago and waned not long after.

Fentanyl overdose cases now include people who hadn't even been born when pill mills were the driver. Yet, the association continues.

For nearly as long, we've had Dr's who serially refuse to prescribe pain relief, for fear of risking their license. Compounding that are draconian state laws, some so extreme they limit pain meds to 3 days max.

...as in, people I know

...as in people who once managed their pain and lived their lives, now they don't.

Instead, people I know obtain pain relief (what little they can manage) illegally because it is the only viable option left to them.

This is not hyperbole. This is their reality. Right now.

A few, blessedly, are helped by Kratom. Which is more than nothing. Sometimes a lot more.

Unfortunately, lawmakers are also learning of Kratom. I'm already hearing pols testing some fear-generating rhetoric about it. If they can inject the problem then they get to supply the solution. Which will be a ban. It's always a ban.

They cannot tell good from evil. If you intend to practice non-doing, you have to see your nature before you can put an end to all states and conditions. To attain the Buddha’s Way without seeing your nature is impossible. Still others commit all sorts of evil deeds, claiming karma doesn’t exist. They erroneously maintain that since everything is empty committing evil isn’t wrong. Such persons fall into a hell of endless darkness with no hope of release.

who Zen now calls the first patriarch, but who was kicked out by many people while he was alive.

perhaps we shouldn't be so arrogant to think we're somehow immune now? but it's natural for people not to know how much more profound enlightenment is when they haven't encountered the real dharma yet.

One of the problems with following teachings that aren't right is the risk of losing oneself. It's a fact that many people spoke words under the name of Buddha, like Watts. So how on earth can we pretend that he has not introduced any % of falsehood to the right teaching while he passes it down? The alternative is that Watts is pretending to supreme enlightenment, which I have not heard of him having done.

My question as to what it means for things to happen pertains specifically to the original article talking about the meaning of "time". Instead what we've got is absolute ambiguity that amounts to "don't worry about it, just chill". That sounds like self-loss to me. Self-loss starts with loss of consciousness. That can happen when people learn the degenerated truth (it's like a rotten apple for a consciousness, shall we say).
>I no longer ask questions on Physics stack exchange:

There’s nothing wrong with, say, buying a two family home, living in one unit, and renting out the other to help pay the mortgage. But corporate landlording, where an organization owns multiple buildings and runs it as a profit-maximizing enterprise, is a cancer on modern society and needs to be phased out.
I used to work for a guy who owned a 1972 Ferrari 365 GTS2 - one of only about 100 made.

He did track days with it, and set very respectable times. (He also raced a 1969 Ford Mustang in the local historic class. He was a fairly fast driver for a club racer. Not professional race driver fast, but he certainly wasn't babying his cars.)
In this case, moderate discussion of the mechanics has disabused me of a notion! Thanks for that; I really appreciate the informative reply.

I migrated away from Adobe after Photoshop CS6 which I believe was the last release before they switched over to a subscription only pricing model.

If you're looking for a Photoshop alternative to break away from the incredibly user hostile relationship with Adobe I can heartily recommend either Krita (open source) or Pixelmator (Mac only).

Pixelmator Pro is my daily driver for image related work and is incredibly snappy and surprisingly full featured for an application that costs a fraction of PS - $50.00 onetime fee.

I don’t understand it either. Wouldn’t the people who collect the rents in the building have a list of all the rents in the building?
Again people seem to not be exposed to wtf is going on in the rental market. In my building I have seen prices of the same unit move by 10% within a few days. According to my management this is due to the “software” they are using.
This is a really short blog post about a book that apparently concentrates on sound for underwater life but for a broader sampling, as recommended by others, An Immense World by Ed Yong among other lifeforms goes into research on ocean and river dwelling creatures and it's alot more than just sound, just the sensors for detecting current/movement and electrical signals and the wider visual spectrum just off the top of my head.
A minority.

While it is asserted in your link that:

35% of landlords were between the age of 55 to 64 years

there is no such claim that all were merely renting out an extra room.

It's more fruitful to look at the landlord power distribution of number of properties per landlord and cast those renting two or more houses toward the "(small a) aristocrat" category .. with those renting out multiple million dollar plus houses in dense inner city upscale suburbs likely being very well heeled.

One person watching versus dozens of people watching. And the key phrase "public performance" for US law.

If you wanted to let exactly one person watch a PPV, or exactly one table with a handful of people, then you could potentially justify that.

(Did they even bother with "service intervals" on planes that probably didn't come home often enough to make it to the 2nd service?)

The other types of motivations are descriptions of other people.

It's like being tall. You can see if someone else is tall, or short, but you yourself don't experience your own height, you feel the same size as you did when you were a child. You can see it in a photograph or a mirror, of course, but that is seeing yourself as though you were a different person. Your height is not part of your subjective experience.

Likewise, these other forms of motivation do not have a subjective experience associated with them, they are properties observed in others. Feeling encouraged or discouraged to perform an action, however, is a subjective experience. We can experience in ourselves, but not observe it in others.
> Vulkan has some pretty strict conformance tests[0]. It's not like you are going to run into differences between conformant Vulkan implementations every day.

Oh man with every fibre of my being do I wish this were true. I’m debugging a different Vulkan driver bug almost every 2 weeks. PC drivers are passable, mobile drivers are a joke. Shader miscompilations everywhere. Performance traps. Arm Mali drivers currently implement vkCmdPipelineBarrier2 by calling vkCmdPipelineBarrier in a loop for every individual barrier instead of issuing a single barrier. I’ve measured Barrier2 as almost 10 times slower than the older version, only on Arm drivers though.

You have to test everywhere
