I think both approaches have merit, I find the ability to have proper libraries/functions (such as "place M4x8 socket head countersunk bolt here") is really nice, though I'm faster with the click&change approach for exploratory design.

However the thing holding OpenSCAD back is the fact it is CSG (basically booleans on primitives) which is just not good enough for non-trivial parts. More interesting tool is cadquery[1] which uses the OpenCASCADE b-rep kernel. Still not as powerful as commercial offerings sadly, but at least on the right path to get there.

Last night, just before full darkness, I was walking through the woods around our home in rural western Washington state and quite suddenly I'm looking at a surprised black bear. It was perhaps 4 meters away and immediately stood up and started huffing. I shouted at it and calmly walked away.

We don't live in a true old-growth forest, but it's pretty close. There are definitely many hundred year old trees.

We manage our five acres very, very minimally, and we're actively re-foresting most of the ~1ac of yards that were mowed prior to us moving here in 2020.

As another commenter said, this is the most beautiful natural environment I've ever seen, and we're extremely grateful that this has become our forever home.
If you have a Yubi Key and you are worried, read this part from their report:

> the adversary needs to open the device (...) Then the device must be re-packaged and quietly returned to the legitimate user (...) assuming one can find a reliable way to open and close the device, we did not work on this part

Yubi Keys are supposed to be tamper-evident and you can also put tamper-evident stickers on them. I am more concerned that a determined attacker may eventually find a way to record the signals without having to remove the casing.
I visited Freetown Christiania in Copenhagen when I traveled to Denmark. I don't have a lot of information, but I walked by someone giving a tour, and from the little I overheard, it sounded like that's how it worked there. Everyone rotated handling the various responsibilities to take care of what needed to be done. But that's a small community of like-minded people, so it doesn't really have to scale like it would for it to work on a large city, state, or country level.
Agreed with this.
People can only spend so much time on a Live Service style game. They aim to be "The game you log into daily", but usually only kids have the kind of free time to grind these out week after week, let alone keep up with multiple.

Then, each have their own $10ish Battlepass, and you need to grind to get to the end of it. Aside from a new map or character, these are the bulk of 'new stuff' that gets added.

Gaming as a Service doesn't scale well on most people who can afford to whale out, once they've already found their slot machine.
That might help you identify which data breach had that as your address. I know at least one person who has trouble passing those shoddy identity validation services because one of the data aggregators have incorrect data for them and no error correction process.
That AI can produce drivel does not mean either that AI can only be used to produce drivel, or that most people believe it can only produce drivel. It is entirely possible, if not likely, that these publishers and contests were spammed by a small number of bad actors.
>When Margret used to go shopping and she'd see, for example, a pair of jeans in a department store, do you know what she used to do? Try them on. I think you're all with me here, but just for anyone who's joined us late, I don't mean she'd go to the changing rooms and try them on. That would be a preposterous idea wouldn't it? No, she'd just get undressed there in the middle of the sales floor to try them on. It took me some considerable time to persuade her that this wasn't normal behaviour in Britain, despite what she might have seen on Benny Hill. Even then, she only stopped - amid much eye-rolling and, 'You and your silly social conventions,'

Was this ever the norm in Germany?

Several childhood friends developed either a full-blown schizophrenia or "just" psychosis - as in not auditory or thought-based communication with "entities from behind the Moon" - but a tendency to produce irrational fears based on made-up threats: "I need to park 2 miles away from my workplace and walk the remaining distance as someone is looking for my license plate there", or other made-up stuff with a pattern of being surveiled.

It's fucked up for the ill and for their beloved ones in every single case. How much I can appreciate what I believe the article tries to "sell", western societies are not capable of accepting schizophrenia as an enlightenment like Hindus do.

Richard Alpert, later known as Ram Dass, became spiritual guide of a few "tech bros" and other famous personalities. But how he, as a psychology professor from Harvard, described his teacher - Neem Karoli Baba - makes me believe that Ram Dass finally got to understand "the thing" that was elusive for him and Timothy Leary at Harvard, by doing crazy macro doses of psychedelics and listening to an "elightened" person quite loosely attached to our reality.

Based on experiences with such people living in western countries, only the folks who accepted the diagnosis and manage their "traits" with medication are living normal lives. Two people have a pattern of ditching their meds twice a year and not telling anyone (they "feel cured", and it happens almost 6 months apart like on a timer in both cases), which causes a repeated pattern of aggression towards the family, causing physical harm to relatives, being taken by a police by force to a mental health facility). One person never accepted the diagnosis and... it's more on the sad than interesting side what you'd hear from them.

From my experience, people sticking to treatment have completely normal lives.
Animal fat isn't something to avoid, at least not for health or performance reasons. Everything in moderation.

Extreme diets are often more a means of virtue signaling or addressing hidden mental conditions than anything to do with health. Adherents want to fit in with a certain group and then they invent various justifications to make their choices seem more reasonable.

This is such a great distinction (teasing vs. built resentment). I think there was definitely mounting resentment from both ends (and I’m not a saint/the victim here). There were also arguments we’d have where both of us didn’t take things seriously and it was just fun/added some spice. Thank you!
This is really cool. I took an optimization class a few years back, but haven't made the time to do anything fun with it since. This inspires me to do it.

I do kind of wish that the last note corresponded to a game over, though, and I wonder if a smaller screen or faster ball would widen the playing field a little. Maybe I'll fork the code and try some of those out myself.

I think the question comes down to what is reasonable accommodation. As others have said, allowing you to bring your child to the conference seems reasonable. As does asking you to step outside when your child becomes a distraction.

In the US workforce, there are laws about what constitutes a reasonable accommodation for a disability. If you have a mobility restriction, it’s reasonable to ask for a first floor office, but not that the owner install an elevator.

In this case maybe you could game the system.

What if you combine binary search and game theory?(knowing that he’s trying to beat me and that binary search is my best strategy I have information reducing the randomness of the selection. I know Ballmer is going to choose worst case numbers like 58)

begin with binary search to narrow down the range, then within the range guess the binary search worst case answers. It’s still not guaranteed to win, but might be fun for the chance of taking his money.

Although leading by telling him that the worst case for the optimal algorithm of binary search on n=100 also gets you the job at Microsoft which is worth more than the two bucks you might earn playing the game.
My wife and I verbally argue nearly daily about many things. But we usually work things out over time. Fast forward much time later-(days, months, etc) such topics 90% of the time are no longer important enough for either of us to really care about talking about them. We're happy _enough_ , what usually impacts us as a couple is the frustrations we individually feel with external factors- not each other. Think of two fish stuck in a bowl they outgrew- any hostilities are not particularly with each other, but the result of their environment. The usual consensus between us is usually summed up to "yeah, this moment is hard for us- but we've been through worse and we'll keep working hard to get to the next stage in life".

That being said, we both have our own issues from before we met each other- but we actively want to better ourselves and are trying to overcome our own flaws while accepting the each other as they are. Communication is hard, conflicting thoughts and emotions between cohabitants is hard, but if it were too easy- there might occur a paranoia of it being fake. The ability to resolve conflict and work together as a team is what will ultimately determine the strength and duration of a relationship. That's not something that's easily learned or often taught... and I would not depend on books alone for such life lessons.
> Is this supposed to be cute? Just seems like a pathetic relationship. I don’t understand the context.

> To be fair, these are meant for datacenter applications where it would be absolutely normal to run your fans at full speed all of the time.

Case fans for rack mount chassis are very powerful, and also can take up a significant amount of energy when running full-bore (not to mention the mechanical wear).

I haven't used a server chassis in over a decade where the fans were running at full beyond a few brief seconds at startup. I'm not sure if they used a four-pin header or some other mechanism, but fan speed control is a normal and expected feature in server hardware.

> Does it have HTML5 remote console, and basic component diagnostics? If so what else would you like?

IPMI specifically is meant to be a standardized remote management interface. It (mostly) works for basic things, but more advanced functionality is hit-or-miss, or absent entirely, leaving you at the mercy of proprietary tools. Redfish is supposed to be better, although I personally haven't used it.

Web interfaces can be hit-or-miss in terms of functionality and UX. Additionally, I've often found these web interfaces to be unstable -- either being very slow or not loading at all, to certain features of the UI not loading data or hanging the interface.

The aether originally suggested a preferred reference frame -- something thoroughly debunked by tests of special relativity.

Getting them to answer the phone? They are really good at that. Getting out of Tier 1 hell? Pretty frustrating and difficult. Getting them to fix the problem? Depending on your issue, it's either "Here is a patch" or "It's been added to backlog, early estimates are sometime in 2030s"
Interviewing is by no means the perfect way to assess a candidate, but ultimately that’s what the purpose is. If I just tell candidates what I want them to say upfront, then why even bother with it at all? I want to assess what qualities they have that I want/don’t want, and what qualities they don’t have, as best I can. They don’t need to be perfect. Skills can be trained, personality characteristic much less so. People are flexible enough that some of them could spend one hour flexibly pretending to be the candidate I’m looking for, but that’s not the purpose of the exercise for me.

If you happen to find yourself in a relationship where arguments never happen, then by all means. But as someone married to his own Margaret for the past decade I find many of these hilariously relatable.

Even if she can drive me to the brink sometimes (and vice versa), I still very much love her, and when looking at it soberly the good far outweighs the "bad". Taking a bit of craziness on the chin now and then is a minor nuisance compared to many other problems in this life, and a price I'll happily keep paying for the sake of my family.
Me too. Fiber is healthy. The difference between a Kiwi and a Kiwi flavored soda is the fiber (there's some truth here, though it may be exaggerated).
The only thing that matters to your career in the long run is $$$. The more you make, the more credibility you have and the more interesting work you’re able to pick for yourself. The endless variety of arbitrary “titles” is a motivational device primarily designed to give you something in lieu of a bigger raise. Do not buy into that. Caveat: I’m speaking of the various “levels of seniority” within the same career track. If you e.g. become an exec, then yeah, your title will make a difference. But for lower levels, do recognize that this is a hamster wheel, and one that isn’t portable across companies. $$$ you’re willing to forego, and your skill set, will determine your level in a career move to a much greater extent than your current level. It’s the most powerful signal you can use in a negotiation.
Better?

I guess there are two ways you could implement this, the legal and the regulatory route.

The legal route would say that upon discovery of the lack of said backups, they would be subject to penalties. So if they get hit by a ransomeware attack, then while they are down, they get kicked. Pretty rough.

The regulatory route would say that every company above a certain size needs to document its policies around backups, and either standardize on a fixed set of backup techniques or have an auditor that verifies that the backup technique used by a company satisfies some set of requirements. The former approach means a ton of paperwork for the company to get the certification, and the latter approach means that the regulatory body has to be very large and have a great deal of subject matter expertise. All of this is fairly horrible.

I'm not sure that either of these would be "better" than making the payments themselves illegal. Not to say that such a law would be "good" either -- it basically means that companies will have to not involve the authorities because recovering their data is more important (and may be essential to the continuity of the company).

Bad as it is, the best solution here is probably to keep going like we're going -- law enforcement will try to hunt down the ransomers and bring them to justice (since this is already illegal), companies are incentivized to follow some sort of best practices around backups.
I understand feeling this way, generically. Let's imagine a public speech. In a small room. Dead quiet except for speaker. There's a suddenly loud happy baby, competing with the adult speaker for volume. They take 2 minutes to wheel the baby to the back of the room, that's only 30 feet away, so nothing really changes in terms of noise elvel. And another woman politely approaches them with their line asking if they'd like to take it outside.

The thing is at that point, I have jumped to a # of conclusions: small room, disruptive over long period of time, dead quiet, and acceded to this odd cultural view I never saw anywhere other than moneyed SV and extreme money that talking obliquely means you're being polite.

The article doesn't give us data to justify the conclusions I jumped to, but it does give us enough data to know this was a near-platonic caricature of a situation where the unprofessional bit isn't the baby making noise. It was during a talk about the practical challenges of being a founder with an infant, at an event targeted towards being more inclusive to female founders.

Anytime I see the "carnivore diet" on instagram it seems very cringy. Almost as cringy as just how militant many of the vegans seem to be. I have some serious doubts about the validity of the carnivore diet actually being healthy long term.

I am sure it is possible to actually be healthy being vegan, but it seems so many (at least on social media) focus on "Organic" or "Non-GMO" and somehow think that magically makes something healthy. When I see a vegan recipe that honestly looks good but every other word is "organic this", "organic that". Or try to say they are not using sugar but are using maple syrup instead.

If you want to be vegan because of ethical concerns about animals, than go for it. But I think going vegan just for the sake of being healthy is likely misguided and you likely did not do enough research to do it properly.

Personally I go for a balance. I will never be full vegan, but I also where it makes sense have vegan meals. Indian I always prefer to be vegan since those are not trying to replicate meat. I continue to use dairy instead of an alternative milk for my coffee.

I keep red meat to a minimum, don't do burgers often but when I do I am doing a real burger.

Some of the meatless products from trader joes (the meatless orange meatless chicken has become a staple over some cauliflower rice and broccoli has become a staple of mine).
