I'm guessing they didn't expect content updates to cause such an impact, they've been doing this for 15 years, it is that uncommon. a couple of hours in their world is a long time because their concern is protecting customers as soon as possible. I'm sure they'll do all kinds of tests going forward and be transparent about it. Keep in mind how easy it is for you or I to come to conclusions without understanding or knowing the context they operate in, maybe it will be more clear soon enough.
Sure. I don't think even the most rabid anti immigration advocate would hold the number at zero, but using the GP's logic ("the mix is always better") the Native Americans should be quite grateful they were culturally enriched by the incoming Europeans.
In this particular case, they're the air-gapped product is singly dependent on HPE servers, mostly for compliance reasons. Same reason on why it uses Palo Alto firewalls.

Though in the case of the GGC nodes, having multiple vendors was mostly a negotiating component. If we could go to HO and order 3000 servers and have them running, Dell loses a large amount of negotiating power.

Being honest though, working with Dell was significantly better than working with HP or (especially) Equus.

You could probably get far with Wordpress. Why? Because if you're technical you can navigate the tricky setup well, and it's made in a way to support a lot of things for non-technical people.

Of course you gotta get it running (or pay people like WP Engine), but you're going to end up with a thing that will work.

That or dev.to is a good spot I think.

You're wrong. Installing a new OS is something done very rarely by people who are not hackers or sys admins. Meaning they have time to set it up once how they like it and how it will stay for years of computer use.

> allying with them gives us little to nothing in return.

Recent events have shown that to be very much not the case. Over the past few weeks we've had news of the Russian Navy paying port calls and the Chinese building major signals intelligence capabilities. Wouldn't it be better to have them as an ally?

It's always interesting to contrast our relationships with Cuba vs Vietnam. We fought a long hot war with Vietnam yet today we have good relations with them. Obviously we can't say we would have a good relationship with Cuba if we had been nicer to them but it certainly makes me think.
The code of conduct consists of individual provisions, articles, and paragraphs. It should be easy (in fact, it should be a prerequisite for such actions being taken) to cite the specific provisions of the CoC that were supposedly violated, and to enter that information into the record. That this didn't happen speaks volumes.

In theory, the coalition government could have not passed the Reichstag Fire Decree (followed by the Enabling Act), but they did get swayed and pass it. If such a mistake gets repeated, then yes, a coalition won't help. As such, a coalition is not foolproof.

Fortunately, to my knowledge, the US Constitution doesn't have a critical weakness like Article 48 of the Weimar Constitution which granted unusual emergency powers to the President.

In summary, it comes down to how many loopholes you can identify and patch before they get exploited. A proof solver might help.

Interestingly, ECMA-404 says the following:

> The goal of this specification is only to define the syntax of valid JSON texts. Its intent is not to provide any semantics or interpretation of text conforming to that syntax.

So it is legal JSON although not useful with a lot of concrete implementations. Maybe a way to find an exciting security vulnerability involving two parsers differing in their interpretation...
Maybe it used to be, probably because the Castro and Guevara rebellion is a great story. But today I feel that everyone knows that it backfired and the country is in shambles due to terrible totalitarian leaders.
>One might ask: Was that the Jews' fault? Or the host society's fault?

I will speak from the perspective of one who emigrated to the US.

Every new group is initially seen as "the other". After some point, however, employers that hire "the other" may find that they can pay them less because there is less demand to hire them, and thus benefit financially, they hire more. As other employers follow suit, over time the salaries go up until they match that of other groups.

Their children benefit. The first generation of manual laborers and farmworkers begets the second generation of policemen, nurses, and soldiers begets the third generation of doctors and lawyers and professors.

In the US this has happened to Irish, Italians, Germans, Russians, Jews, East Asians, Indians, and Latinos. Why hasn't this happened to blacks (or has happened in substantially less numbers), despite the latter having the benefit of US citizenship and command of the English language from birth? Why hasn't this happened to the Somalians mentioned elsewhere? The Muslims of Dearborn?

Or look at Britain, where you have three groups from the Indian subcontinent:

* Indian Hindus

* Indian Sikhs

* Indian and Pakistani Muslims

Sikhs and Hindus have been very successful; they are more likely than the average to be part of the British middle class <http://www.theguardian.com/money/2010/dec/14/middle-britain-...>. Muslims are, by contrast, worse than average in every single social measure despite being, racially speaking, indistinguishable from the other two groups to any outsider (since none knows, or cares, about the myriad of caste differences); they are all "Asians" in Britain. But the outcomes are completely different.

I will ask you the same question you posed. Are these differences in outcome the groups' fault? Or the host society's fault?
I don't use Wayland yet personally but I imagine that the mpv ontop mechanism might be conflicting with the focus stealing prevention. Do you use ontop? Does it work if you disable ontop? If so, this should probably be considered a bug in mpv on Wayland.

hmm maybe not: https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/issues/9064

edit: I just verified it is working fine on X11 (wanted to make sure I wasn't mis-remembering--but it is very obvious when something steals focus because I use the Dim Inactive desktop effect with a very high setting). I'm using ontop=yes as mentioned before. On Fedora 39 with my setup mpv does not steal focus when launching/switching videos. I did notice some weird behavior with nomachine before but after setting Focus Protection to Force High for nxplayer.bin I haven't noticed it again.

KWin version: 5.27.11

If this isn't working in Wayland surely this should be considered a Wayland/mpv bug?--just one more reason for me to delay trying Wayland

The JSON RFC (https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc8259#page-6) doesn't require the unique entry name, and also the fact is that many parser uses the last-win strategy like serde_json.

For human, this is invalid, but many web services accepts this kind of JSON consciously or unconsciously.

I'm guessing this may have become a feature of some services and it's hard for maintainers to break this behavior. ᵕ︵ᵕ
Yup, you are completely correct on the sensor side. I try to be fairly choosy in what we support, but yeah some strokers and machines definitely do not have the safety features I’d like.

Many years ago, there was another device that relied on a lubrication pump, but the pump never worked very well (building a pump for unspecified body safe lubricants is difficult on several levels).

As someone who isn't American, the dialogue around immigration in the US seems so odd.

I've lived in six different countries (including the US) and in every other country there is no discussion around illegal immigrants - they are deported. It's not even a political issue. Having secure borders is a norm.

Then I get to the US and there is this weird political debate around it. For someone reason it's "bad" to refer to people who enter illegally as "illegal immigrants". People argue that people who entered illegally should be legalized.

I find it really odd.
Author of Ubicloud's managed Postgres service is here. I'm not sure if you refer to SATA SSDs or typical cloud database setups when you said "other, more typical storage technologies". I'll share my perspective on both.

If you compare NVMe SSDs and SATA SSDs, NVMe SSDs are order of magnitude faster. Maximum theoretical limit of SATA III bus is ~6Gbit/s. This number is 32Gbit/s for Gen 3 NVMe, 64Gbit/s for Gen 4 NVMe and 128Gbit/s for Gen5 NVMe.

For typical database setups offered by cloud providers, the situation is different though. Most of the time, network attached storage devices are used in those setups such as EBS on AWS or Premium SSDs on Azure. These setups suffer a lot due to additional network hop. They are also subject to throughput limits (which can be increased in some cases by paying significantly more). No matter what type of SSDs are used at the backend, additional network hop significantly slows down the reads and writes.

At Ubicloud, we use local NVMe SSDs, which is why we are able to achieve high read/write performances. However, as ngalstyan4 suggested, benchmarking is required to make more definitive claims.
I agree, and including delta-epsilon proofs in calculus 1 seemed like a way for the curriculum authors to feel good that they were “teaching proof techniques” to these students, when in reality they are doing no such thing. I later did an MS in math, and loved the proofs, including delta-epsilon proofs…after taking a one semester intro to proofs class that focused just on practicing logic and basic proof techniques
I support immigration too, as long as it's people we vet. Smart people want to live here, and will jump through hoops to do so. We should make the hoops easier for them, and actually deport people who spit in their faces by waltzing over the border and staying. It's not fair to the hard-working honest people who played by the rules.

Also, you should be concerned about the crime. Have you seen what the cartel does in Mexico? It's terrifying, and those (cartel members) are not people we want here.
0x9c (156 dec) is still a very small number, all things considered. To me that sounds like attempting to access an offset from null - for instance, using a null pointer to a struct type, and trying to access one of its member fields.
I've made vegetarian kimchi dozens of times and you can get away without it. Plenty of purists have every right to tear me apart here. But as a vegetarian, between 1. giving up one's principles, 2. having no kimchi or 3, staying true to one's principles and still having kimchi that's 85% as good, I'll take the latter, thank you very much.

If you're not veg you can use prepared seafoods - cured versions, sauces, etc to get most of the way there. As a vegetarian I use soybean paste to sub in for the umami flavor and some of the salt / fermentable sugars I'm otherwise missing.

I think it is logistics, infrastructure oriented vs language feature oriented. Looking at current PL landscape Go, Zig appears to be infrastructure oriented languages where features are just enough to keep infrastructure super fast. Whereas most other languages like Rust, Kotlin and so many more feature oriented if compiler gets fast, runtimes get better its nice but they'd rather work on long list of modern language features.

To be honest PL market feels similar to consumer market where gadgets with myriad smart features sell more than plain but solid machines.

It's easy to understand, but modern tools are much more convenient for multimedia posts. I want to put an image in my post.

Strong recommend for kimchi beginners. I've always loved ALL kimchis, but my partner only came around to cabbage kimchi in the last couple years. Long before that - once I made some daikon kimchi, she loved it and got hooked.

I mention this because daikon kimchi while sacrificing the tenderness, delicacy, and complexity of flavor of a good cabbage kimchi is really, really, REALLY forgiving. So if you want to learn the fundamentals that's a good place to start.

Also - it may seem like an extravagance, but get a fermentation crock with a water seal and weights. They pay for themselves in ease, time, and better product with far less chance of spoilage in just a few batches... and literally a couple batches if you account for the retail price of kimchi vs. the cost of the ingredients for homemade.

You can not take complaints about TeX being a very bad programming language, based on the totally obsolete principle of macro expansion seriously, because you have written something complex in it?

That is totally absurd. TeX is an awful programming language and there is no changing that. Either you accept it and suffer through it or use something else. But it obviously the worst thing about typesetting in any TeX derived system.
One of the more interesting things was the MBAs don't run engineering, it was fascinating seeing how quickly the tide can go out on management quality, especially when you're growing 20% every year -- took maybe 4 years to form a new extremely agreeable layer over significantly worse quality than the one 2 layers above it.

There's so much misinformation around this Crowdstrike issue. The change deployed was in what is referred to as a "channel file" which isn't part of the software update mechancism (what you call N-X) but part of the intra-day frequent signature/channel updates it gets (that we all have no control over).

Crowdstrike are calling it an unfortunate "logic error" but they and few others are talking about the how a binary payload could get released to the public without seemingly any pre-release testing of the payload. If the content that was made available to the public had ran on a test endpoint, they would have discovered this "logic error" before taking down a high number of the world's systems simultaneously.
Even unikernel applications have an OS compiled into the application. It's necessary to initialize the hardware it's running on, including the CPU and GPU and storage.

I suppose you could build it as a UEFI module that relies on the UEFI firmware to initialize the hardware but then you get a text only interface. But then the UEFI is the OS.

But this outage was not an OS problem. It was an application bug that used invalid pointers. If it was a unikernel it still would have crashed.
