It just seems we have much different experiences.

In the last 5 years I used Windows on 3 different computers with different configuration (during the same time: 1 for work, 2 at home). I have never had any significant problems with updates nor with stability.

When I used Linux (it was quite a long time ago, but checking comments about desktop on Linux makes me think that not much has changed since then) usually it took less than one year before reinstall or lengthy system repair was needed. I used "versioned" distributions (Ubuntu, Kubuntu, Fedora) and rolling releases (Gentoo and Sabayon).
The first question you should have asked is, does this include only chemically free water? It does not.

Geology 101 will tell you that a lot of water is chemically bound in rocks. The accessibility of said "water" is... questionable.

These aren't necessarily hydrates either; if it has oxygen and hydrogen, then you can extract water from it.
It is possible but managing asynchronous transfers in OpenGL is quite tricky.

You either need to use OpenGL sync objects very carefully or accept the risk of unintended GPU stalls.

They don’t have a ship there so burning rocket debris doesn’t kill people. Once they’re confident they can land it in a specific place in one piece, expect them to drop it with cameras present.

Same here, using KDE Plasma + Wayland on openSUSE Tumbleweed and AMD GPU and have no problems with 3 monitors all set to different fractional DPIs. No complaints for a long time. But yeah had lots of problems in GNOME or other GTK desktops. Not just with fractional DPI but by multi-monitor support in general.

boilerplate that should be abstracted away in some functions rather than inserted into your code base

Boilerplate is often tedious to write and just as often easy to read. Abstraction puts more cognitive load on the developer and sometimes this is not worth the impact on legibility.

> If linux gaming requires you use a blessed immutable OS where everything you run is either unprivileged or signed by a central entity, it's not much better than just using Windows at that point.

Yes it is, given that unlike Windows you still ultimately know what code being executed on your computer and have some degree of control over it.

Should add, this isn't necessarily something I want, lucky for me I don't really play the games that require anti-cheat. But it is something that Valve could conceivably do.
> This really doesn't mean much. The second cube (or another shape) isn't going to double the line count.

That's an absurd standard. "Writing an OS is easy, because once you've written enough code to get Doom to run, firing up a second copy of Doom is relatively straight-forward!"

It's those first 600 lines that are the problem. There's now a steep learning curve and lots of boilerplate required for even trivial use cases, where there wasn't before. That's a loss.

> The problem is that OpenGL no longer matches current hardware so the naive way to use it is very much suboptimal for performance. Once you move to zero driver overhead techniques for OpenGL then Vulkan is not that much harder.

Again, mad standard. "Writing Vulkan shouldn't be a problem for people who write complex zero driver overhead code for OpenGL." Great. What about the other 99% of people?

I'm not against Vulkan for those applications that truly do need it, but - frankly - most graphics programming does not need it. In giving up OpenGL we're giving up a sane, standard way to do graphics programming, and exchanging it for a choice between (i) making everyone write mad Vulkan boilerplate for control they don't need, or (ii) choosing between a bewildering array of engines and frameworks and libraries, none of which work at all similarly, many of which are still very immature.

And it's obvious which one will win - whichever proprietary, SaaS monolith emerges to clean up the mess. Losing OpenGL is a huge set back for open standards, honestly. The principal beneficiaries of depreciating OpenGL will be the shareholders of Unity, in the end.
If you shroud this basic misunderstanding in so much emergent mystery, sure, but otherwise no, and the real reason is simple enough - that's just one of the defaults in some "UI kits", which macOS devs can also use, including "disparate or bespoke" ones, and could've been just as consistent without it being positioned at the single top spot
EV slump, Hertz fire sale take used Teslas to 'no haggle' $25,000 price
Oh this opens a whole bunch of really interesting topics. One of the most interesting is ISRU - in situ resource utilization. Using what you have available to make further progress. The Sabatier Reaction [1] is one of the single most important factors in our future expansion. Basically, CO2 + Hydrogen => Methane + Water.

Mars has essentially infinite CO2 and hydrogen. So this means we can produce essentially infinite methane and water. In fact you can carry out electrolysis on some of the produced hydrogen and feed it back into the system. This leaves you with a final excess product of methane, oxygen, and water. The Starship's engines, uncoincidentally, run on oxygen + methane. So we can locally produce basically limitless amounts of water, oxygen, and rocket fuel on Mars.

Of course this begs the question of what we do initially. And like all long distance colonization efforts, you're not sending just a single ship, but rather a small group. Those other ships are carrying additional critical supplies, including fuel. Upon landing those ships can also be used as shelters until something more permanent can be constructed. And the extra fuel provides a means of getting back to Earth if necessary while giving you a big window of time to start establishing basic local infrastructure including energy and methane production.

> Does Samsung want to lower the bar to Apple level?

Samsung doesn't want you to repair, or even for them to do it. They want to sell you a new phone as often as possible.

It's just that the repairability thing is favourable publicity, as is the environmentalism that it helps further. So they made a token effort to pretend they care and market the hell out of it, meanwhile hamstringing the usefulness of the program so as for it not to actually impede the sales of new phones.

Basically the exact same thing Apple does (see Louis Rossman's vids about it).

Recently ifixit has been calling out their BS and it looks like best buy is too.
Somehow, actual lawyers have already gotten into trouble for using LLMs for court filings.

The answer to this is incredibly obvious. It's the same reason people have always made voluntary alliances - for security. See also: NATO.

As for the "Thucydides Trap", there's plenty of criticism on Wikipedia:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thucydides_Trap#Criticism

Personally I file it alongside Marxism, Asimov's Psychohistory, and all the other Grand Theories Of History that try to pretend human behavior is simple and predictable.
As a moral realist and liberal humanist, I agree, but the post highlights something important. Evil acts are often motivated by sincere moral systems. These people are mostly not sociopaths acting independent of a moral system. The feelings of moral disgust you feel towards their views are probably no different neurobiologically to the feelings of moral disgust they felt. This is important for us to recognize. Feelings of moral disgust should not be automatically given credence or respect just because they exist. We should also be careful and introspective of strongly held moral feelings that arise in ourselves.
The reasoning is interesting though. I don't necessarily agree with it but it's not "lmao gay".

A posthumous pardon was not considered appropriate as Alan Turing was properly convicted of what at the time was a criminal offence. He would have known that his offence was against the law and that he would be prosecuted. It is tragic that Alan Turing was convicted of an offence that now seems both cruel and absurd—particularly poignant given his outstanding contribution to the war effort. However, the law at the time required a prosecution and, as such, long-standing policy has been to accept that such convictions took place and, rather than trying to alter the historical context and to put right what cannot be put right, ensure instead that we never again return to those times.[0]

Tiny LLMs (oxymoron?) could be used for text completion, predictive keyboards, compression, to improve OCR and speech transcription, etc...

For these applications, you don't need a super smart model, it just needs to give out hints. For completion, the user can just not use the suggestion if it is not what he wants, for compression, it will just lower the compression ratio a bit, and for transcription, it will only be used as disambiguation. For all these applications, a LLM is not needed, but it can improve the results.

Note that for OCR/transcription, I am a bit weary of engines that are a bit too smart, as a lot of them are today, and LLMs go in this direction. The results are often objectively better, that is more words are properly transcribed, but for those that are not, it is often subtly wrong, that is, it makes sense, but it is not the right transcription. Whereas with nonsense, we know it can't be trusted and we act accordingly, also, people can be quite good at filling the blanks themselves. It results in more effort, but maybe better understanding in the end.

I had never heard that he died on the 10th anniversary of the D-Day landings.

The code breakers at Bletchley Park, Alan prominently among them, are often credited with saving millions of lives. The reasoning is that their work make the D-Day invasion possible in 1944, and had they not cracked the codes it would have been delayed at least a year and would have cost millions move lives.

And presumably Alan would have been reminded and thought about the D-Day landings on the days before his suicide.
