The problem with that is that most of the time people are mocking about a system without properly knowing it. It doesn't matter, which system, but, they're to lazy to learn it properly. Debloat Windows is easy. You have to know how, you have to really have interest in finding the solutions for.. once you know it, you'll use it on each occasion.

Also, the animations and perceived speed of the UI can be adjusted, as all parts of the UI like border widths, icon sizes and spacings.. you need to know how :)

Also the start-up process and the services and and and.. each part of the os can be tweaked. You need to invest time to learn it - the same as it would be the case with Linux.

So I really can't understand the hustle.

Please consider to invest the same amount of time to learn the os made by msft as you've probably invested into learning Linux. (Years?)

There's plenty of tools for job like that. Winaero tweaker, various debloaters, shutup, and scripts for installation or install-media modifiers.. also the tweaking of features with switching on off some experimental settings.. there is a whole new world to discover. Even digging the registery and writing reg files.. so much can be done, but .. better praise Linux, isn't it :)

There's too much to write about. My intention is just to open the closed eyes and tell that there's more than one would or could ever think, not to write a rant or something. Invest the time and work and you'll get a system that is "yours".

This is to start with. There's some unattend and autounattend generator on GitHub I do not remember, but which is even more sofisticado.

Deskmodder.com

And then, digging the Internet for the particular questions should help any win-admin

Have fun and take your time to know the systems you use. Peace!

> how do you exempt those companies from civil liability and make it impossible for victims/their families to sue the manufacturer?

I don't think anyone in this thread has talked about an exemption from civil liability (sue for money), just criminal liability (go to jail).

Civil liability is the far less controversial issue because it's transferred all the time: governments even mandate that drivers carry insurance for this purpose.

With civil liability transfer, imperfect FSD can still make economic sense. Just as an insurance company needs to collect enough premium to pay claims, the FSD manufacturer would need to reserve enough revenue to pay its expected claims. In this case, FSD doesn't even need to be better than humans to make economic sense, in the same way that bad drivers can still buy (expensive) insurance.
Also:

"OpenSSH was patched so that it could notify systemd when it was ready to accept connections, using the libsystemd library, which in turn had a dependency on the liblzma library that was compromised."

I still remember the Debian OpenSSL patch fiasco. This one has a different angle:

Why would you link a security sensitive application against a God library (word play on God object). DJB avoided much of libc in his software so it would not depend on libc bugs.

Of course his software never received much interest because people only want to modify the software of others until it is as buggy as their own.
Derivatives approach is great and works if you're matching on some pattern like \w+, but could it work with "or" characters like (abc|def) or patterns like [a-z]+\d+
He certainly was not an "apostle of colonization"

The 'apostle of colonization' quoted by the article is something someone said about Verne in 1929. As a compliment.
I personally read and write a lot. I track things in git messages by cross-referencing issues, and I comment my code.

But my point is: when you have a cultural divide among competent programmers on whether to comment, not commenting game-theoretically wins, because the outcome where you have comments that get updated some percent of the time is worse than not having those comments.

Instead, embed what you want to say in a comment in the code itself, or in a test.

Documents your libraries and APIs if they are used by people outside your team.
Windows, Linux, Android are pretty easily + reliably covered by SyncThing.

What's the best story for iOS or MacOS?
This is extremely interesting.

On top of keeping and publishing "negative outcomes", could we also move to actually requiring verification and validation by another "lab" (or really, an experiment done in different conditions)?
Soviet coins (at least post 1961) were designed explicitly with this application in mind.

1, 2, 3, and 5 kopeck coins weighed their value in grams. They could also be used to estimate lengths; 1 kopeck was 15 mm in diameter and 5 kopeck was 25 mm.
That data is not an apples to apples comparison unless autopilot is used in exactly the same mix of conditions as human driving. Tesla doesn't share that in the report, but I'd bet it's not equivalent. I personally tend to turn on driving automation features (in my non-Tesla car) in easier conditions and drive myself when anything unusual or complicated is going on, and I'd bet most drivers of Teslas and otherwise do the same.

This is important because I'd bet similar data on the use of standard, non-adaptive cruise control would similarly show it's much safer than human drivers. But of course that would be because people use cruise control most in long-distance highway driving outside of congested areas, where you're least likely to have an accident.
Why such desperation? We’ve had 40 years to address the problem.
Yes, calling an algorithm, a formal description of a generative function "a language" is clearly wrong. I don't think we need an academic dissertation on this.
The list is probably not very interesting, the main benefit of these sort of censorship systems is that every knows of them and thus self-censor their output ahead of the explicit review step.
I'm sorry but if you're bean-counting email co2 usage and coming up with a unit of like 15 grams of a physical substance per email then by that logic we should basically all go ted K luddite on our computers and phones, and simply throw them the fuck out the window right now. Imagine the pounds of CO2 I emit playing sonic the goddamn hedgehog why don't we.

I think environmentalists need to find more effective focuses than these if we want our goals to be achieved and for us to be taken remotely seriously
If you’re talking about something wouldn’t that always mean that you in fact ‘could’ care less?

Saying that you ‘couldn’t care less about X’ doesn’t seem logical at all because you of course could, ‘could care less’ is of course not particularly informative unless you’re expressing intention or a desire to care less about something.
Won't this lead to inconsistent states if you don't do monotonically increasing tokens?

I.e. your storage system has two nodes and there are two read-modify-write processes running. Process 1 acquires the first token "abc" and process two also acquires the token "abc". Now process 1 commits, the token is changed to "cde" and the change streamed to node 2. Due to network delay, the change to node 2 is delayed. Meanwhile process 2 commits to node 2 with token "abc". Node 2 accepts the change because it has not received the message from node 1 and your system is now in an inconsistent state.

Note that this cannot happen in a scenario where we have monotonically increasing fencing tokens because that requirement forces the nodes to agree on a total order of operations before they can supply the fencing token.
That's a very good point. I wonder about the durability of a paper based solution, but 3d printed rolls might also be suboptimal in that regard. This needs some experimentation.
Not only is it self-reinforcing:

It is inevitable because some competent programmers deliberately don’t comment their code, read comments, or delete other people’s comments when they are stale.

Can your LLM always detect that? You realize that foraging is a huge reason people do this, and bad directions have very real consequences. From a culinary perspective, does it matter? Is it a growing, potential edible (technically not a plant the way tomatoes are technically a fruit) thing on the ground?
My dear summer child. My degree trained me to build computers from logic, write an operating system, write userspace code and applications (with a side of AI) all before the year 2000.

I don't know where you did your degree or when. But my friend you are objectively wrong.

Termux no longer runs because it no longer allows (possibly using Linux capabilities?) subprocesses from around Android 10. Android 12 if memory serves actually starts killing background processes.

No hacks. Unless your degree says using the POSIX fork()/exec() API as "hacks".

Please don't embarrass yourself further. It was quite painful reading your prior response.
I can't even count how many times that I've had the DRY vs. verbosity of code conversation in trying to norm a team.

I'm in the camp of a little verbosity and repetition for the sake of clarity is worth it.
To be honest I've long been puzzled by your response blog post. Maybe the following question can help achieve common ground:

Would you use RedLock in a situation where the timeout is fairly short (1-2 seconds maybe), the work done usually takes ~90% of that timeout, and the work you do while holding a RedLock lock MUST NOT be done concurrently with another lock holder?

I think the correct answer here is always "No" because the risk of the lease sometimes expiring before the client has finished its work is very high. You must alter your work to be idempotent because RedLock cannot guarantee mutual exclusion under all circumstances. Optimistic locking is a good way to implement this type of thing while the work done is idempotent.
The commit history will.

Winning or loosing a lawsuit doesn't say much about the truth of any matter. Especially when it's a civil suit between corporations, or a criminal suit in a jurisdiction that has plea deals.
The p-zombie argument is the best-known of a group of conceivability arguments, which ultimately depend on the notion that if a proposition is conceivably true, then there is a metaphysically possible world in which it is true. Skeptics suppose that this is just a complicated way of equivocating over what 'conceivable' means, and even David Chalmers, the philosopher who has done the most to bring the p-zombie argument to wide attention, acknowledges that it depends on the assumption of what he calls 'perfect conceivability', which is tantamount to irrefutable knowledge.

To deal with the awkwardly apparent fact that consciousness certainly seems to have physical effects, zombiephiles challenge the notion that physics is causally closed, so that it is conceivable that something non-physical can cause physical effects. Their approach is to say that the causal closure of physics is not provable, but at this point, the argument has become a lexicographical one, about the definition of the words 'physics' and 'physical' (if one insists that 'physical' does not refer to a causally-closed concept, then we still need a word for the causal closure within which the physical is embedded - but that's just what a lot of people take 'physical' to mean in the first place.) None of the anti-physicalists have been able, so far, to shed any light on how the mind is causally effective in the physical world.

Great take, thank you for sharing it!
I think it primarily boils down to the context the app has. In this case, the more information you provide about the problem you want to solve, the more useful check points you can get. I agree that such an intelligent assistant, that has broader knowledge about what is going on in life, would be cool, as the user would not need to manually synthesize the information and think what else might be important for the given topic - maybe a future version of this app will account for this :)
The general idea, and the way the app works, is to encourage looking at notes, ideas from the "ok, what can I do about it?" perspective, and help break it down into steps to take in order to accomplish that.
>What do you mean by that?

I do not remember the details, I saw a blurb on a bicycling site that manufactures are starting to create bikes that regular people cannot repair.

I think I heard the following over the last couple of years:

* a kind of automatic gear shifting, but very lite weight

* Cables are somehow routed through the frame

* I thought I heard there is a shifter that no longer needs cables.

* And I know about tubeless tires.

* I did hear about using Mars Rover tires for bikes, that should great, but last I heard they were very expensive. Not sure if they hit the general market yet.

All of that to me points to a very complex system.
If flipping one of the output pins is fast enough you could use that in combination with an oscilloscope as a coarse but very accurate profiling method.

Though I believe for most people "roughly 2ms" is good enough

That's because that was the price of silver. The mint was for many centuries a way to get your precious metals divided into units of standardized weights that were stamped to certify their authenticity, thus facilitating commerce, though frequently rulers succumbed to the temptation of "debasing" them by diluting the precious metals with so-called "base" (in the sense of "low", "contemptible") metals such as tin, lead, and zinc.

So quarters weren't worth 25¢ because the government said so; they were worth 25¢ because they were made out of 25¢ worth of silver.

That's the same reason "peso" means "weight" and the "shekel" and "pound" take their name from units of weight.

This ended in 01965 in the USA, followed by the end of the gold standard, since which the dollar has lost 96% of its value relative to the precious metals that used to define it. The consensus among economists is that this is a good thing because it prevents deflation. I'm not sure.
It is very naïve to think that the availability of such tools isn't partly responsible for that intelligence; “We shape our tools and thereafter our tools shape us”. And it seems too man-centric of an excuse: you can see all our civilization being built on hands so you state that there can't be a way without.

The "they MIGHT be as intelligent, just lacking hands" theory can't have the same weight as "nah" in an honest mind seeing the overwhelming clues (yes, not proof, if that's what you want) against it. Again, same way that you can't disprove solipsism.

I'd imagine that if paper alone wasn't strong enough for long term use, using sellotape to cover the entire roll such that the whole thing has a layer of tape on top of the layer of paper would make them pretty durable and add very little time and cost to it. (But I've not done anything like this, so my guessing could be bullshit - happy experimenting!)
You dont have to have the same goals, its pretty serious but also its ok in the grander scheme of things if you don't want to think about this stuff. This wasn't even about "messaging", it was just a thing with a nice environmental upshot. No reason to be defensive.

Aspire to, yes. But if we say "we're going to ban FSD until it's perfect, even though it already saves lives relative to the average human driver", you're making automobiles less safe.
> The bar for self driving isn’t «does it never kill anyone», it’s «does it kill people less than manual driving».

Socially, that's not quite the standard. As a society, we're at ease with auto fatalities because there's often Someone To Blame. "Alcohol was involved in the incident," a report might say, and we're more comfortable even though nobody's been brought back to life. Alternatively, "he was asking for it, walking at night in dark clothing, nobody could have seen him."

This is an emotional standard that speaks to us as human, story-telling creatures that look for order in the universe, but this is not a proper actuarial standard. We might need FSD to be manifestly safer than even the best human drivers before we're comfortable with its universal use.
How do you pay 35 cent in paper is still a mystery. But OP just means you can exchange/buy coins (and use them as weights)?

Executable tests in Rustdoc are amazing. For those not involved, they are run when you write `cargo test` and they are included as markdown code blocks in your crate’s documentation.

They’re not an excellent place for extensive testing. But they are super useful for making sure your documentation examples are updated and functional.

#![deny(missing_docs)] is also a great way to ensure you don’t forget to document things.
