Logically, the comparison is with comparable output of software in other instances, not people. To compare software with people here is like asserting that a cow is mooing in what seems like an excessive manner because people don't make that much noise. It does not serve as a useful point of comparison. Cows may simply moo excessively. In order to provide a meaningful frame of reference, you would compare the moos of said cow with other cows to make such a comparison.
>Why isn’t “june” then “iune”?

I'm not certain about the etymology, but many languages do use an "i" sound for the names of June and July. I wouldn't be surprised if it started with an "i", then people switched to writing it with a "j" while still using the same sound, and then later people began pronouncing it differently.
To add to the sibling comment mentioning that "v" as the vowel "u" was a thing in Latin historically, it does get used this way sometimes in "fancy" signs in English even today (I've seen it mostly on buildings that have Greco-Roman architecture styles, which is fitting). From a quick google, I found this [1] picture of the word "county" spelled with a "V".

I don't think the angle grinder guard issue is cut and dry. I sometimes operate mine without a guard in conditions where the guard prevents me from seeing the point of contact, which for me is a more severe safety problem. When I can't simply rearrange the work I remove the guard and take extra care. Such complex work environments should not be regulated inflexibly.

Yeah easy to say of course. I am sorry for your troubles.
You are proving this is a management issue. You took steps to address the issue. Fired people who didn’t listen. The fact they thought they could do it without consequences means they never got into trouble by management at other job sites. If your industry has a culture of not following safety procedures it’s only because bosses don’t enforce it.

> What would you do instead?

As said, limit the user's abilities as much as possible with features of the OS and software in use. Maybe if you want those other metrics, use a firewall, but not a Tls-breaking virus scanning abomination that has all the same problems, but a simple one that can warn you on unusual traffic patterns. If soneone from accounting starts uploading a lot of data, connects to Google cloud when you don't use any of their products, that should be odd.

If we're talking about organized crime, I'm not convinced crowdstrike in particular doesn't actually enlarge the attack surface. So we had what now as the cause, a malformed binary ruleset that the parser, running with kernel privileges, choked on and crashed the system. Because of course the parsing needs to happen in kernel space and not a sandboxed process. That's enough for me to make assumptions about the quality of the rest of the software, and answer the question regarding attack surface.

Before this incident nobody ever really looked at this product at all from a security standpoint, maybe because it is (supposed to be) a security product and thus cannot have any flaws. But it seems now security researchers all over the planet start looking at this thing and are having a field day.

Bill gates sent that infamous email in the early 2000s, I think after sasser hit the world, that security should be made the no1 priority for Windows. As much as I dislike windows for various reasons, I think overall Microsoft does a rather good job about this. Maybe it's time those companies behind these security products start taking security serious too?
Specifically I meant some groups of Gypsies from Eastern Europe, where I've seen this behavior. Most immigrants don't fall in this pattern though, like you describe.

> It doesn't explain why Cuba needs to import 70-80% of their food despite being a fertile tropical paradise.

There have been famine and starvation before the communists took power. I don't think Cuba has ever been fully food self-sufficient. Not many countries are.

Not to mention agriculture needs access to fertilizers which the sanctions make harder to get.

The more important part from your source:

> The largest island in the Caribbean, Cuba is one of the most successful in achieving the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs). Food-based social safety nets include a monthly food basket for the entire population, school feeding programs, and mother-and-child health care programs.

This is a big achievement.

Also it doesn't make sense to compare Cuba with the richest Western Countries. Communist revolutions tend to happen in the poorest countries of the world. Saying they are poor because of communism is confusing cause and effect.

If we compare Cuba to her peers in Latin America, especially Haiti, then Cuba is doing vastly, vastly better. Cuba is doing really well on the human development index, providing free health care and decent education for all.
Respectfully, this is a gross over simplification of the problem. There is a vocal minority of folks, mostly "front of house" that stand to make a decent living. No ones getting rich. It's just that you can make a good wage without a college degree. The appeal is obvious. THAT SAID, the vast majority of workers in hospitality are making poverty wages and working 70+ hours a week in conditions that most of us in our cushy tech jobs would not be able to tolerate. If you've never worked in the industry (and your comment makes me suspect you haven't) then its very hard to understand. It's the kind of thing you have to see.
We use RR a lot with Julia. It only gives you a GDB view of the system, but it can work with any interpreted or compiled language.

Things that don't work are drivers that update mapped addresses directly. An example of this is CUDA in order to replay one would need to model the driver interactions (and that's even before you get to UVM)

Another great thing is that RR records the process tree and so you can easily look at different processes spawned by your executable.

Here you go, this is just the literature I found in 5 minutes on mechanisms for why people tend to return to their original weight after losing weight, but then stop gaining:

Here’s a CDC study showing that there is a long term trend of people getting more exercise even as obesity rates rise: https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/data/nhis/earlyrelease/EarlyRelease...

My broader point is that, yes, external factors like low activity lifestyles and a diet that contains too much processed food are contributors. But what they are contributing to is an internal mechanism as well. Explain why some rail thin people get no exercise and eat nothing but garbage? Why do some fat people eat whole foods based diets and get daily exercise, but persist in being fat? When people regain weight, why do they tend to regress back to their original weight range, but not continue beyond that? Why has modern medicine been relatively unable to treat obesity until we started injecting GLP-1 hormone analogues? Why has saturated fat consumption been dropping as obesity has been rising? Why has refined sugar consumption been dropping with no effect on obesity?

The science on root causes of obesity are evolving quite a bit. I would hope you are more open minded to hearing from your patients and experts in the field. Treat your obese patients with more dignity, and don’t treat their condition like it is a moral failing, or something entirely within their control. Talk to your patients about the level of effort some of them go towards losing weight. You might be shocked to learn the amount of literal blood, sweat and tears expended, and how much their efforts are seemingly in vain. Everyone, not just doctors, know that eat less, eat better, exercise more is the recommended way to lose weight. But it just doesn’t work in the long term.

The more important thing would seem to be what actually led to the immigration in the first place. In Cuba’s case it seems like widespread corruption and wholesale mismanagement by the government. This particular case doesn’t seem like an inevitable result of globalization but the natural reaction to a terrible government.
Let's assume you're right and I don't know, something major at the bottom of the food chain, like fitoplancton, dies en masse due to climate change.

One of the big problems with tipping at the moment is that menu prices have increased and % gratuity expectations have also increased making gratuity dramatically outstrip inflation.

Say that twenty years ago the norm was to tip 15% on your $10 burger ($1.50) now it may be 20% on your $20 burger ($4.00) which is a 167% higher tip for your 100% more expensive burger.

At the same time median income went from ~$60k to $75k or a 25% increase. Eating out/tipping is simply much less affordable in current times.

There are plenty of other problems with tipping but I think the raw price is what people are feeling the most.

It's not clear to me who is instigating this seperation, and that changes who or what should be considered reasonable.

Is it openSUSE wanting to own themselves? Or is it SUSE wanting to divest themselves of their openSUSE project?

Is it even a divorce at all or just a legal technicality or formality thing?

In either case, as a former but 20 year user at work, as in, I was cto and decided that all our machines ran openSUSE, I was always under the impression that openSUSE was the upstream source for SUSE. I got this impression because I maintained a few packages myself even though I didn't work for SUSE. They get maintained in various repos in OBS (opensuse build service), and get forked from there into repos for the various distros. Kind of like big project githubs pulling from and tracking personal or smaller project githubs.

Anyway, if openSUSE is the upstream source for SUSE, then what does it mean to seperate them? Will SUSE still track not-open-SUSE to get the bulk of it's own product? Which remember they sell? If so will SUSE continue to support them with for example the infra to run OBS? And if all of that then what is the big problem with the name?

Or will the upstream/downstream direction reverse? That seems unlikely. I would work on packages for free in opensuse, I would never do that in sles. I can't be the only one.

Or will they just be 2 unrelated distros? Would not-open-suse still be a free work-alike of suse? If not, then what would it's purpose even be if not specifically to be a free version of suse?

Is it just a legal technicality or formality thing with the name but they both plan to stay in essentially the same relationship, or is SUSE really looking to shed openSUSE, or is openSUSE looking to diverge and become it's own thing that isn't just a version of SUSE? Not merely under it's own governance, but start to differ from SUSE?
One time our party had bad service at our first time at a restaurant (lunch with coworkers), waited 60 minutes for our meals when other people who arrived after us got their meals and us asking for an explanation and getting nothing while waiting, we tipped a dollar for 100+ dollar meal to give them a message. When we were leaving the manager and server stopped us and asked for their tip and tried to guilt trip us into leaving a bigger tip. You can never go back to the same restaurant again because we joke you cannot trust them to not tamper with your food or ignore you or make you wait much longer for every thing. It's a bizarre guilt trip experience that has spread to every food serving business, the business pays less to employees, so the customers have to pay for their food plus extra for the employee to do their job with a smile - cashiers/counters where you pick up food/drinks expect a gratuity and it's built into point of sale touchpads where you are forced to select from different gratuity amounts. It's very weird when compared to any other country I've been to.

The source from the article doesn't sound like it's a measure against tampering, but instead a way to stop the patient receiving the wrong dose by accident. Prior to the early 1900s I'm pretty sure you could buy cocaine and opium over the counter in most of the English-speaking world, so there wouldn't have been any reason to alter your prescription.

Edit: the source given by the article was from 1919, so it would have been within a couple of decades of the earlier laissez-faire drug policy.
Quantized bge-M3 embedding model in the browser for full privacy

If rude is an identity, that means when a human witnesses a crime, describing the perpetrator as "rude" to the police office on duty will be sufficient to track down and nab the criminal.

If we assume that sanctions are the major barrier to Cuba's prosperity, a competent government that governed with the best interest of its people in mind would have been working for the past half century to try and convince the United States to lift those sanctions.

You would think that being less than 500 miles off the coast of Florida that Cuba would want to have strong relations with the USA rather than Russia over 6,000 miles away.

The Soviet Union fell in 1991. It should have been clear since then which horse Cuba should be betting on. Cuba has had 33 years to figure out that their revolution was dead. Their lack of success warming up relations with the USA and their failure to do so is on them.
I’m not sure what the insight here is supposed to be.

Well to elaborate, I see this reality manifested from them as a promotion of tipping, of tipping even higher amounts than the machines prompt, of greater disdain for people the lower their tips are, perpetuating disdain of people by race based on tipping habits.

Modals are generally involved in a full-blown Web app. For an average post or article, you don’t need node handles, pure declarative HTML is enough.

In other words, there seem to be very few use cases where such approach is justified.

Yes, the proportionality is one stupid thing about tipping. If I take a super expensive bottle of wine, is the service worth more? Conversely, if I take the cheapest salad, is it worth less?
