I've also read this sentiment online quite a few times, but find it rather unconvincing, especially if world politics encompasses more than Europe, the Anglos and Japan.

Left/Right is a pretty rough categorization to begin with, and things we associate with it in a liberal democracy might not hold globally. In China, the left wing of the CCP and other parties is generally regressive, wanting to go back to policies more in line with Mao, while the right-wing is economically more akin to our european liberals, but also socially progressive for things like lbtq rights. In South America, the left wing is usually economically statist and redistributive, but might be rather conservative on some social issues. There's also the whole liberation christianity movement. Japan as a country is way more conservative than the US.

Going back to a US-EU comparison: I think it is fair to describe the Democrats as centre-right on economic policy, especially when it comes to taxation. Outside of the UK, almost all countries in the EU have less qualms about high taxation levels, and it is obvious that a lot of senior democrats are in the pockets of rich donors and Wall Street.

On social issues I feel like it is different though: Open borders and immigration in general is significantly more controversial on the left side here in Europe. Things like being against against voter id is considered cooky by basically everyone. And the US is often leading the way on issues, as can be seen with gay marriage and cannabis legalization.

A simplistic left/right analysis does not do justice to the complexities of voter ideology and policy. In fact, I think the more this kind of analysis makes sense, the less mature the democracy tends to be, as it indicates that people look at it as a teamsport.

Heh, I see what they did there…
One more thing to consider is memory bandwidth, which can be limiting factor especially on mobile devices.

A non-transparent draw over another draw allows in best case to cull all overlapping drawing operations, in worst case means you only have to use as much bandwidth as the individual draws.

With transparency, especially if you can't somehow combine the operations together (from my understanding, very hard problem), it means you also need to read back the entire region you're overlapping with transparency - so every transparent draw involves at least twice the final framebuffer size bitmap going-over memory bus.

Now consider that many mobile devices had not enough memory bandwidth to do a full redraw (i.e. blit the full framebuffer image twice) of the screen in time to maintain 60fps and it becomes a considerable problem.
I feel very certain that's not the best way to learn.
That's a false equivalency.

Airline pilots have a mandatory retirement age based on health and safety studies associated with the risks and requirements of flying a plane.

Given it is on the border of Europe, geography alone is a sufficient answer.
There ought to be a clear distinction between indigenous Muslims who migrated post WW2 all the way to the 80s and 90s, and the recent migration waves which outnumber the former. The former have been able to acclimatize to European culture while still maintaining their roots (not to mention that it was harder to migrate back then - you needed a job already for starters). The latter bring the same tribalistic beliefs of their homelands over here. And trust me, the former DESPISE the latter, and it's an understatement. Not because they want to pull the ladder up after them, but because the latter import the same foul culture that the former wanted to escape from.

As a Muslim, I don't want to see people praying on the roads and streets of Paris. I didn't want to see people chanting "From the river to the sea" for Gazans (who have a very strong reason for being despised by the rest of the Middle East). I don't want to see Muharram processions in Barcelona either.

Fun fact, the Middle East has one of the most relaxed migration policies across the world, yet a lot of European migrants are actually unable to migrate because they are criminals back home (the first condition to obtaining a residence visa is a police clearance).

40 / 550 is less than 10%. That's actually a huge number considering that the planet has an "equilibrium". Your actions can affect that balance and the whole planet goes into disarray. Not saying that's what will happen, though. The planet could also just absorb our extra CO2 (which is why it's becoming greener).

That's a completely different situation.

It's measurable biological certainty that reaction times as measured in milliseconds and fine motor control degrade with age. Vision and hearing also degrade. The nature of hands on control of flying a plane means there are no ways to compensate for this.

None of this applies to a politician making decision in a time span of hours, days or months and who can delegate tasks as they wish.
Actually it has accumulated over years. First being interested in hardware itself, and following the overclocking scene (and doing my own experiments), then my job as an HPC administrator allowed me to touch a lot of systems. Trying to drive them to max performance without damaging them resulted in seeing lots of edge cases over the years.

On top of that, I was always interested in high performance / efficient computing and did my M.Sc. and Ph.D. in related subjects.

It's not impossible to gather this knowledge, but it's a lot of rabbit holes which are a bit hard to find sometimes.
Great idea, I hope this takes of big time.

imho a side effect of promoting RAG is that the vector search by itself (on chunks of documents) might be a good-enough thing for most people. if we create a system without the LLM-summarization part, it might be the best of both worlds. Alas, people actually don't care about that stuff.

Yeah, I would be surprised if it were to do with "not liking them" and not "consistently getting them is highly difficult for a person with ADHD" due to their controlled status in most countries. In the US, from what I've heard, it's particularly draconian, where you're only allowed to get a new prescription on the day the last one runs out, and then have to take a paper prescription to a pharmacy where they often don't have stock, so you have to try many pharmacies, all the while being treated as a possible drug seeker by staff.

Maybe this is based off of outlier reports, but it doesn't sound easy for someone with ADHD to keep up a regular supply of medication in the US, and the slightest lapse in medication supply to an individual can worsen that difficulty with their symptoms reappearing almost immediately.

Here in the UK it's a bit more relaxed, but still more difficult and under way more scrutiny and dumb rules than, say, an SSRI medication, which are plentiful and under no scrutiny at all, despite the fact that I had a much worse time on those with worrying side effects and extreme withdrawal symptoms.
My experience with this on Plan 9 (while not an object-capability operating system, it gets IMO most of the way there in the ways that matter in order to experiment) was that it worked a treat for long-running services, but it was a little hard to make ergonomic for the end user sitting at a terminal.

I played with augmenting factotum with a form of mandatory access control, whereby I could ask the hostowner's factotum to mount and bind things into a freshly rfork()'d namespace on an as-needed basis, but the feeling was that it could build up access delegation fatigue pretty quickly.
You can easily have localhost.whateverdomain.whatever for any and all domains and still use virtualhosting. Seems like a solution looking for a problem.
B550 was that limited initially. Even the Ryzen 9 5950X runs on B550 series motherboards today. B550 is a bit scaled down, e.g. no PCIe 4.x lines, just 3.x, but that's OK with me.

My motherboard is an ASUS ROG Strix variety with 4x32GB ECC RAM and the Ryzen 9 5950X works just fine.

Unlike money in a wallet, capabilities can be composed. You can take an existing capability, and tack a filter onto it, and use that composed capability. For example, you need to do backups.

Take the system administrator's access to everything, but put it through a read-only filter, and pass that to the backup program.

Instead of using the "File Open" dialog in the Win32 gui api... and then a "file open" which could go anywhere, replace it with a call to the file-open "powerbox", which hands a file back to the application. The user could even make it read only, append only, etc.

As far as users are concerned, it doesn't have to be hard. We just have to learn some new command line tricks.
Yes, I believe the 'duplication' of registrar accounts is so that they can increase their rate limits on drop catching expired domains, presumably to avoid the registrar getting a thundering herd problem from determined registrars. A rate limit solves that at least.

Last I looked they have to pay about £3K for every account annually, so clearly it's still a lucrative niche.
I would recommend using ClickHouse which provides very efficient compression and thus reduces the size of data drastically.

Apart from that, it provides various other feature:

- Dynamic datatype [0] which are very useful for semi-structured fields which generally logs contains very often.

- You can configure column's & table's TTL [1] which provides efficient way to configure retention.

At my previous job (Cloudflare), we migrated from Elasticsearch to ClickHouse and saved nearly 10x reduction in data size and got 5x perf improvement. You can read more about it [2] and watch the recording here [3]

Recently, ClickHouse engineers published a wondering detailed blog about their logging pipeline [4]

People will admit that for a country, but not a nation.
Programming is not fantastic for ADHD. Especially when majority of people don’t have ADHD to begin with. They are looking for an excuse for their lack of ability to focus on a boring task.

It’s subscription and expensive because it’s another way to suck the money out of people who think they have ADHD.

> imoho recognizing the necessity/righteousness of espionage goes hand in hand with disrespecting intellectual property rights.

What it shows is that life cannot be reduced to a set of rules. Rules are merely built upon a model of reality (and models are by definition incomplete) - reality does not conform to the rules. Much as we'd like to, we cannot achieve justice by rules alone.

So one must come up with a living system that can accommodate reality. That living system is what we live under.

It's not perfect, and cannot achieve perfect justice. But it adapts and does reasonably well - until it doesn't, and then the revolutionaries replace it to start the cycle anew.
Most people these days are using a service provider for SMTP in production, so it isn't really possible to keep your prod and test configs in sync.

I do agree about using testing everything real tools, which is why this (fakemail) uses OpenSMTPD as the mail server.

All the work is in configuring it (similar complexity to your postfix configuration by the looks of it), interfacing to it, and deploying it (currently using ansible but will probably dockerize it).

The fact that no emails can get through to a real recipient is a feature.
It should compile to the same because a struct passed by value is loaded into the registers the same as method arguments.
It feels like async is popular and necessary but just not that good fit for rust. Having it is better than not having it I suppose....
Node is great, but I think we should collectively abandon npm:

It is centered around installing things as a user (in $HOME) as opposed to using proper packages.

The configuration format treats lines with `#` as not comments.

Julia Masli's show is incredible. Definitely worth seeing.
> The solution should reside in providing better integration and opportunities to migrants, who could very well be part of the solution to Europe's demographic crisis.

The issue is that Europe has already taken in far too many migrants than it can possibly integrate. Right now, taking more migrants isn't a feasible situation if they're impossible to integrate.

The solution to Europe's (or any country's) demographic crisis isn't more migrants. It's making a conducive and affordable environment for families and childbearing. Cheaper healthcare, affordable childcare, cheaper education, etc. and that's just scratching the surface.

> Despite the right's endless whining, immigration has very little real impact on the economy, and crime, overall, has gone down in the last decades.

So is that why Sweden, whose population is 10% non-Swedish now, has had to declare publicly that their crime rates have skyrocketed over the past decade? Why Poland, which took very few migrants pre-Ukraine, has had a very low crime rate? Call me right-wing, but while some of their claims might be horseshit, others are more than obvious truisms.

> The most diverse European cities are also the most productive.

The most diverse cities were already major production centers before migrants entered the picture. For a more accurate reference, compare the levels of non-residential investment into these cities pre and post the migrant crisis.

>In France less than a thousandth of the population could be classified as "immigrants".

France is obviously one of the few countries in Europe that could uniquely integrate its migrant population, but your numbers are wildly inaccurate too. Out of a population of 67 million, 8.7 million were foreign born. Sure foreign born could mean a lot of things, but that still isn't "less than a thousandth" of the population. And a significant number concentrate in the major cities, further ghettoizing them.
Genuinely wondering, what kinds of bullets are you referring to?
Came here to say this :)

The original tag line is "Jiff is a datetime library for Rust that encourages you to jump into the pit of success."
Not at all. If this library was GPL, any software using it also needs to be GPL. This means all code needs to be open source, which severely limits freedom of makers of end-user software.

And almost the whole Rust ecosystem is MIT.
The business model includes ads, according to their website.
> If some country is hoarding the secret to a revolutionary food that would help your starving citizens, you're not going to say "Oh, I'll just let my people starve because spying would be WRONG."

There are things called "moral dilemmas". The situations when you have no options but to go against moral, the only choice you have is which particular moral rule you will break. Your proposed situations are examples of moral dilemmas.

> There's no "world police". It's the law of the schoolyard when it comes to international relations. You make and break alliances, set up partnerships, break them, gather information to help your allies, and life goes on.

If something is lawful it doesn't mean it is moral, and vice versa. Generally laws are written in a way to enforce moral, but laws are limited in what they can do, so they tend to be less restrictive then moral, and politicians writing laws are not exactly saints, so I wouldn't trust blindly to their moral reasoning.

But even if there are no to punish you for a misdeed, it doesn't make the misdeed to be moral.

VRM is the component that you need to be looking at regarding the power delivery for the CPU. There are many motherboards that combine a lower-tier chipset and a high-end VRM.
Right. On Plan 9, this kind of composition usually took the form of rfork()ing to inherit the parent process's namespace, mutating it in a handful of ways deemed useful, and then exec()ing the new image. The mechanics are clear to me, I feel.

What isn't clear are the logistics: what, concretely, do we need to undertake in order to avoid a security posture lateral step from ambient authority to object-capabilities? Importantly, how do we make this ergonomic?
Bash-Oneliners: A collection of terminal tricks for Linux
plan9 is a very inspiring system but its security model is in no way similar to the object-capability model. well, one way: it has file descriptors. but can you even pass a file descriptor across a file descriptor in plan9 the way scm_rights lets you do in bsd and linux?

plash did get a reasonably ergonomic pola shell working under linux, but unfortunately it has bitrotted. fundamentally the insight is that most of the time when you want a process to open a file you have to tell it which file to open. if you give it an open file descriptor instead of a string, it doesn't need the authority to open existing files itself. just one step further down the path where the shell does the globbing, not the program launched

in theory you could do the same thing with per-process filesystem namespaces as you are describing, but it seems like it would take a lot more work to make it reliable and usable
Eh to be fair I think the main reason Zorro III RAM cards didn't appear until way after the first Zorro III machine is that Zorro III wasn't coupled to CPU speed so sticking RAM there wasn't great from a performance perspective - you really needed to use the CPU slot to extend beyond 18MB (remember the 2MB of Chip in addition to the 16MB of Fast) in a useful way
Counterpoint: after World War II we still have troops in both Germany and Japan who are now our allies. Any kind of occupation, and our occupational forces were small, was always going to be a long term commitment. Instead we just straight up abandoned our allies.

This was not a win, and the Biden Administration lying about it at every single stage of the process until the final troop was out was downright cowardly when all we had to do was continue to commit to sit on our asses while Afghani society rebuilt itself.
Are named arguments on the roadmap somewhere? Or is it a won't-fix?
The real truth is that all 8 billion+ people plus all the world's organizations, governments, and so on, are constantly interpenetrating and co-modifying each other, every second of the day.

But no one can comprehend this, so at best, if you are literally the smartest person in the world, you might be able to get away with only a few hundred simplifying abstractions.

The average HN user probably needs tens of thousands.

So its not just states, it's everyone and everything that will ever exist.

The real question is what is the best bundle of such aids to use, at any given time?

while "data is the new oil" might be so late 2000s and early 10s, it is finally coming to fruition in public discourse after people realized that one can dump them into a model and get something you can work with.

having worked in this topic, creating synthetic data is not always easy, and you still need real data to get the best results. if you look beyond basic internet media, there are tons of fields where "real data" does not exist in quantities that could help create effective models. these might be good case studies on how to proceed further in small endeavours.
There has been no NATO expansion, in the sense of an expansion initiated or supported in any way by NATO.

Many countries have joined NATO from their own initiative, because they knew wery well that Russia is willing to rob and murder any neighbors and those neighbors are too small to oppose Russia without allies.

Regardless whether those countries loved NATO or not, they all have made great efforts to join NATO, including by making various sacrifices, as renouncing to things that had belonged to them or accepting to finance various onerous contracts with companies located in NATO countries. The countries that have joined NATO have been willing to do this at considerable expenses, because any such expenses were less important than the risk of being vulnerable to Russian attacks.

Russia has a history of attacking their neighbors only days after those neighbors have lost their allies, so they could not count any more on anybody else for defending against Russian attacks.
