If you (as a culture) manage to successfully run a fishery for 500 years and then someone invents capitalism and yourexisting mechanisms can't withstand the new morality and motives it endorses and encourages ... I am not sure that you've failed.
Go look at where that KBJ quote (missing context and then being misinterpreted) is making the rounds: it’s from a very specific news bubble. That’s why I said “apparently in agreement with her conservative peers.” Both of those quotes were (to me) not made in good faith.

I don’t really know what you’re otherwise on about. I think you’re suggesting I’m making things far more partisan than I am. I’m just responding to the highly partisan selective quotes given.
I had a theory that routinely fortifying your code against bugs is inherently depressing, because it trains your mind to always search for flaws - not a healthy mindset for daily life.

To your point, I've read that mountain climbers and long distance hikers experience "post trail depression". I guess a goal oriented mind is adrift without something to work towards.

I've had a lot of fun playing with it, it was very nice & simple to use. It's also foundational in the Rust ecosystem, so it's well maintained.
This is from a linked article. The market doesn't come into play when it's safety infrastructure. You think if you make paying for fire and police optional everyone will pay for it? what are the consequences of not putting out the fire in one house when the neighbors do pay and the fire spreads. The market is moot when it comes to safety issues.

"AM radio plays a critical role in our public safety infrastructure. As seven former
heads of FEMA have explained, AM’s resiliency combined with the long distances
AM signals propagate means ‘the success of the National Public Warning System
hinges on the use of AM radio.’ I agree. Americans know in times of emergency that
they can turn to AM radio. I applaud Congress for its bipartisan action to ensure the
continued reception of AM signals in all vehicles.”
Thanks, I wouldnt really know where to begin but Im more and more interested after spending hours and hours watching both camps on youtube for awhile. Id also think maybe reading anthropology too
Congress is directing the agency via appropriations.

> So how does Trump link this to migrants? A Trump campaign spokesman pointed to FEMA’s Shelter and Services Program, which gives grants to local governments and nonprofits to take care of undocumented immigrants. Congress boosted the budget from $360 million in fiscal year 2023 to $650 million in fiscal year 2024. The program’s 2023 annual report says it provides shelter, such as hotel/motel services, food and transportation, including plane tickets up to $700 a person.
As we said, Congress appropriated this money, just as it did the disaster fund. There’s no evidence that any money from the disaster fund was used to help migrants.
“These claims are completely false,” DHS said in a statement Thursday night. “As Secretary Mayorkas said, FEMA has the necessary resources to meet the immediate needs associated with Hurricane Helene and other disasters. The Shelter and Services Program (SSP) is a completely separate, appropriated grant program that was authorized and funded by Congress and is not associated in any way with FEMA’s disaster-related authorities or funding streams.”
Couldn't costs be defrayed by requiring forfeiture of certain classes of uninsurable assets (such as houses built on barrier islands) in exchange for receiving aid?
>> Imagine if corrupt governments could no longer shut down the internet and cell service.

>Even in the parts of the world where this occurs it has been shown to be nothing more than a surface level inconvenience.

"Internet shutdowns" like the ones in Kashmir involves all internet being shut down, not just a few sites being blocked on the ISP's DNS servers. That's hardly a "surface level inconvenience".

Analogue doesn’t degrade gracefully. Every time you drive under a power line it becomes completely unintelligible. Meanwhile digital radio can use error correction to maintain perfect quality under heavy interference.
That's ONE intent, and not even between two apps...

Have you ever had to pipe more than two applications to operate on something (image, video, whatever)? Or actually, more than one, since in your solution one app is am, or your intent-calling app?

> Re the “killing stuff” paragraph sounds like a memory size issue

Whatever it is, how about asking what to do, instead of assuming that users only care about the foreground app? (I risk smashing my monitor every time I read that in the documentation)

> And this model works exceedingly well, you just don’t even notice it

Nope, I notice it all the time, since apps are more likely to get killed than let to gracefully stop, in my experience.

I heard that the latest Samsung One UI versions behave better, though
Ha, ok so I gotta give one of these "that's a really strange thing to get hung up on" responses.

Erlang and Elixir don't overload the `+` operator. In fact, they don't overload ANY operators. If you can forgive the syntactic choice of the operator itself (which I think it pretty fair considering Erlang predates Postgres by a decade and F# by two decades), this allows them to be dynamic while maintaining a pretty high level of runtime type safety. For example, one of the "subtle bugs" people refer to when criticizing dynamic languages (even strongly typed dynamic languages) is the following would work when both args are given strings or numbers:

function add(a, b) { a + b }

Erlang/Elixir eliminate this particular subtle bug (and it goes beyond strings and numbers) since:

def add(a, b), do: a + b

will only work on numbers and raise if given strings.

Evacuation notices can be, and are, announced on AM radio during emergencies.

Having lived in disaster prone areas, people tend to be glued to the TV and radio before, during and after to get updates on the situation. TV and the internet are the first to go with the power, and even if you have a generator, that doesn't mean your internet connection will work. Radios will.

I don't think the OP's point was that SiriusXM was being used for emergency coordination, but the lack of a traditional radio in the car forgoes the existing emergency radio infrastructure.
wait, Rust was bootstrapped via OCaml?
Without some sort of tiering the devs would eventually get swamped with how do I turn on my computer level stuff as the biz grows

Thinking about it in degrees of separation is fine from an abstract view but collides with reality
Not in Poland either. Pretty much every bank has also SMS 2FA available.
This is one of the complaints people have with Elm too. Json.Encode/Decode is a pain
Agree, I was also confused on this point. I guess the name “evaluate a three term binary expression” is less snappy though.
Am i the only one who still mostly listens to AM radio when in the car?
Looks super nice. I don't even like animation usually but these look fast and buttery smooth. I wish I had this for Mac OS
Unfortunately recent issues since the last couple elections have become partisan. We should stop using scientific institutions as means to political ends. Its bad for science in general, and sows distrust.

No one who reads scientific american supports X candidate will suddenly vote for them. However, people who see scientific american has begun to play in the political arena will think less of them. Myself and some friends have agreed they should stick with what they know, and not become a political instrument
I agree throwing any and all future planning out the window is folly. What I was getting at is that if I was 50:50 or even 40:60 now:tomorrow in how I carried my daily life before, it is now reshifted to 80:20 now:tomorrow.

Essentially I am placing far greater weight on today than tomorrow, because mom demonstrated to me that time is fleeting and I can't have enough of it.
The author is I think conflating laziness for joy. We don’t care to be lazy because that won’t do it. But we do want to have a language that we like to use. To look at, to play with, to understand and to rally behind.

There is no one web framework that will satisfy all criteria and all layers of what a web framework needs. Every so often we have to migrate as technology catches up and changes the ecosystem, like wasm did with Blazor.

I’d rather have a language that programming is a joy in. The laziness is a nice side benefit. I can adapt such a language to changing landscape any day. I know Ruby is such a language, and hence Rails adopts it’s joyful mentality. But is Rust a joy to program for? That I can’t say for sure.
(A) it's going to stop attacks, because people are learning and adapting to having their ideas challenged. it's easier to use weasel words than it is to study language and make a persuasive argument. Your claim is false.

(B) anything can be "obviously false" under contrived/extreme situations. try again with "Sting is underrated" and suddenly you can easily argue it either way. Try using an argument that doesn't rely on p-values being at the 3+ sigma levels, but of course you won't because you know that will invalidate your position.
1. the forests. I know most about the ones in the pacific northwest. wherever there has been private ownership (and sometimes where there has not) by a corporate entity, the forest productivity has declined (sometimes to zero)

2. mining. The owners care only about what's in the ground, not what's above it, and so there are repeated cases of them poisoning waterways and the rest of whatever is downstream because they actually have no incentive to preserve the land itself. [ Note: this really covers multiple resource extraction industries, but I'll leave it as just one example for now ]

3. topsoil. Farms across the country have been losing topsoil for more than a century. Despite the long term implications of this being acknowledged by everyone involved, practices to stop it from happening are limited, and generally constrainted to non-corporate, non-vertically-integrated farmers.
The demo appears too stateful for me. The real power of `jq` is its reliability and the ability to reason about its behavior, which stateful tools inherently lack.
I’ve never used radio in my current car. Yes, I connect my phone to my car and, if I don’t have cell reception, plenty of music in my library. That’s probably pretty normal.
An Estimate on the Total Number of XFCE Users
I don't as a rule web dev, so when I do I fall into the same category as the author: lowest effort to get something mostly right.

An explanation for "why bother try to have a low effort web server in Rust?" that I haven't seen mentioned: Once you're past the introductory phase of being familiar with Rust, if you don't need to pedantically handle every error case, it can be _very_ simple.

A low effort "doesn't have to be very flexible" web server would be terrific & easy to use in Rust.

Having said that, I'm not aware of the actual offerings available. Maybe there is one, other posts have suggestions.
We have some bad channel congestion (UK, terraced house, relatively narrow street) but part of the problem appears to be ISPs lock the channels, there are completely free channels but the settings on the router don't allow one to select a channel, it auto-picks. Weird. The algo appears to be "choose channel 1 even if it's totally congested"; for most of the neighbours too (4 or 5 different ISPs).

I can only assume that they sell "super-duper routers with greater bandwidth" where they make the box look like a spaceship and actually enable a useful channel selection algorithm? Is there an actually good reason for the channel selection being awful?
Hi!! Different stages of sales, including prospecting. My friend literally drops the quotes during conversation/presentation/proposal. I am generally curious if you do anything similar or some other tricks!
While that’s all true, why is being in a car a special case? If I’m at home without power, I can’t access online information sources any more than I could if I were driving somewhere without cell data coverage. Should building codes require my house to have a radio installed? No one is legislating that tents have built in radios, but if I’m camping I’m in even more need of emergency information than if I’m already in a car and driving. Someone might rightfully tell me that it’s my responsibility to take a radio with me while I’m camping. Why does Toyota have to provide me with a radio while driving?

I ham a ham extra license. I like radio and see its value. I think it would be more appropriate to tell people to pack an AM radio in the disaster bag we’re all suppose to keep in the trunk.
The water in this part of the world all comes from the same sources (wells, some surface sources, rain). The problem is not poison, but supply (i.e. overuse).
Fair questions. If the question is "why did I need to chmod those files", the answer is that permissions modifications in the mkderivation build environment are not propagated to the build output. The quick and dirty solution I came up with was to make a chmod wrapper that logged the calls so that I could apply them after the entire build completed.

For why I did not chmod the directories - that is something I should probably do when I get time again (cleaning up permissions handling more broadly). In my case at the time, I had the logs from the wrappers and did a quick filter before directly adding them to the script as a last hurdle to having a bootable machine after a month-long grind.

The kernel config handling needs a good amount of attention too. I have a cleaner approach to that in mind that I haven't had the opportunity to work on.

It will likely be December before I am able to invest much more time into it, but definitely open to any input generally.
4. You are a hoarder and have run out of room at home (I knew a hoarder with multiple storage units for this exact reason).

5. You are trying to hide things from your spouse.
This happens all the time. Pull down the latest and suddenly you've got some cryptic runtime error, and it turns out there's a new config item everyone is missing. Wasting 20 minutes of 10 people's time quickly adds up - and while it may not happen that often, it does happen regularly. Also the "fix" is often insecurely sending the new key around on slack :(

Also don't forget having to log into CI and multiple infra providers to update those config values as well, where it can easily cause an outage (or at least block CI) if someone makes a mistake.

Of course you can do it a better way, but setting these tools up is often complex and costs money. We want to provide a tool that fixes all of the annoying papercuts of dealing with config, and is useful for everyone from solo devs all the way up to huge teams.

Please give it a whirl and let us know what you think!
It’s the same idea that drove Lorem Ipsum for type setting placeholders.
Whaling (especially that done for oil rather than meat) seems to be another example that seems a pretty clear-cut case (IMO).

Or the catching of live tortoises to use as meat on long sea voyages.
Its written in Go...
"So tonight I got frustrated enough to write some code to deal with it"
Or maybe your "no one else is smart/brave enough to say it" wrapper detracted from your message.

Additionally, throwing yet more syntax/features at a language to make it pseudo-functional doesn't appeal to everyone. A grab bag of features doesn't an appealing language make (for some).
It readily dissolves organic tissues - Especially things like your stomach lining, or myelination in the brain. There's even some paint thinners which contain it. Just because people have been accustomed to it for thousands of years doesn't make these realities go away.

I remember one guy who drank a single light beer when we were hanging out watching the superbowl after he had already been told by the doctor not to drink anything from going hard in his younger days, and the next morning I got to take the day off work to bring him to the hospital to have his esophogas stapled up.
A good point. I have heard of primordial black holes as a candidate for (at least some) dark matter. Not heard that dust was ever a candidate (if you have a reference it would be appreciated).
I was able to. You just have to fill out the same paperwork. Give people an option to opt out, etc.
And make it illegal to sell any service or product that isn't ending in 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, and 1.00. Tax must be included and listed in advance for all sales prices.

A few tiny pieces of candy? Sell more at once. Want to charge a dollar for something but tax makes it 1.07? Either eat the tax yourself and offer it for 1.00 post tax, or raise the price and charge 1.25 for it.
Nobody needs to incorporate AI into their daily work life.
And while at it give them artificially simulated parents as well?
There are various complicated social dynamics related to couples dancing that might make it less than fun for some people. You need to spend several minutes in to close proximity with a stranger, and even be able to move at the same time. It took me years to get over this. Depending on the method dance partners are selected, you might experience rejection etc.
I don't understand why you chose a Turkish word (Μελτέμι) and you didn't choose Ετησίαι which is exactly the very same thing...
IIRC (it’s been a year or so since I last read it), they had recycling, and acknowledged that the resources were finite, but had calculated that for the limited amount of people they admitted, they would last long enough to figure something else out. I may be misremembering.
>which suggests that maybe the better way is something else than locking people up and giving them a black mark which prevents them ever getting a viable job?

The fact is that there are a sizeable number of people, for a variety of reasons, who don't have the interest or capacity in holding a viable job. It would be nice if this wasn't the case, but the world exists as it exists, not as we wish it would.
Why cable? 7 hours? All the previous iPhones I just held near each other and it transferred in like 20 mins via wifi

Unsure whether that was phone to phone or iCloud to phone but either way was entirely painless

Granted I was on both fast wifi and fast Fiber
There doesn't seem to be a ton of information easily accessible about America Vespucci, but this [1] except from the Washington Democratic Review for February 1839 notes the following:

> The object for which she had specially come to America, was to obtain, if possible, a grant of land from the Congress of the United States, as a means of honourable and independent support and the failure of her application, as well as the grounds on which it was deemed necessary to decline compliance with the request, are fully and fairly stated in the following Report made to the Senate of the United States, by Mr. Walker, of Mississippi.

Where a report names that she seems to be worth of the name, but fails to mention any actual land grant, which I would assume is a nice way to say no.

> She feels that the name she bears is a prouder title than any that earthly monarchs can bestow; She asking us for a small corner of American soil, where she may pass the remainder of her days in this land of her adoption. She comes here as an exile, separated for ever from her family and friends; a stranger, without a country and without a home; expelled from her native Italy, for the avowal maintenance of opinions favourable to free institutions, and an ardent desire for the establishment of her country's freedom. That she indeed is worthy of the name of America —that her heart is indeed imbued with American principles, and fervent love for human liberty, is proved in her case, by toils, and perils, and sacrifices, worthy Of the proudest days of antiquity, when the Roman and the Spartan matrons were ever ready to surrender life in their country's service.

ahahaha no no its more complicated than that

SpaceX lobbied for radio regulatory changes to hamper competitors, the competitors (AST Spacemobile) overcame that and has their own satellite system that comply with the agreed upon regulations, Verizon and AT&T are customers in the US, then SpaceX wanted its now non-regulatory compliant satellite cluster to do the same thing but the FCC just points to SpaceX’s own contribution to the standards as reason not to change it - which seem like good reasons, power level, interference, the usual

This emergency authorization is a raison d’etre to justify what SpaceX is now trying to do

I’m glad the infrastructure is there for the affected area, the politics behind it are amusing and should be scrutinized
But there was no deep sea fishery 500 years ago?

So how could any culture on Earth have been ‘successful’ at managing one 500 years ago?

They may have been ‘successful’ in presuming that they could one day manage such in the distant future, but no more than that.

This applies to most things, technological advancement creates new physical realities that must be adapted to…
You are either being dishonest or are just ignorant. User data is disclosed to advertisers when they auction for ad placement. Many of those advertisers then sell the user data they collect through the auction, whether or not they win the auction, to other parties. It's a virtual certainty the FBI, CIA, NSA etc purchase that information.

Your argument is basically Google didn't do anything wrong because they are not the direct point of sale. But they aren't fools. They know what happens to the data they disclose to advertisers. It's repackaged and sold again.
Take F# for a spin. It offers nearly all of the type system tomfoolery one craves and all the tooling and nice-to-haves one wants. The big drag is that the async story and memory management aren't as big as a time vampire as Rust, so you do run the risk of actually solving business needs. I am sure some part of dealing with Microsoft can fill that void, though.
Apparently Sailfish is using libhybris.

I looked at the libhybris page and a few other sources, but am unsure how much of Android is implied when using libhybris. Random person on Internet claimed it is a minimal, but complete, Android user space install, but my reading of the libhybris page doesn't seem to imply that. The libhybris page does imply some of Android user space. A (probably out of date) Android kernel with all the OOT binary blob drivers Android is famous for, seems like it would also be a requirement.

Am I misunderstanding how bad this is? Or, is Sailfish rather than being a real alternative to Android just helping to entrench the terrible situation with Android Linux kernels?
Great idea! Let's also make them double in diameter and density each denomination increase.
I had a 2002 Outback wagon for a while with weather band in the stock radio. I rather liked it for rolling across country during the winter - with a good set of snow tires, that car was pretty much unstoppable!

... and wisdom also suggested that when you realize you've not seen semis on the road for a good while from how bad the snow is, you should take the hint and go find a spot to sleep for a while until things improve.
I mean you can follow databases such as Crunchbase/TechCrunch, monitor social media, and extract information using LLMs or less sophisticated technologies such as keywords, and entities search.
If you’re using allauth why use Authentik vs a database+backups?
>what would our code look like if ASCII didn't have escape codes?

ASCII is the layer that doesn't have escape codes (although it does have a single code for ESC), ascii is just a set of mappings from 7-bit numbers to/from mostly-printable characters
