Valve has/continues to do way more to make Linux a viable gaming platform than Apple will likely ever do for mac

I get it, you want to leave windows by way of mac. But your options are to either bite the bullet and expend a tiny bit of your professional skill on setting up a machine with linux, or stay on windows for the foreseeable future.
The former captain says that's the angle at which the generator and HVAC air intakes flood. Those are closeable if the equipment is turned off. The US Coast Guard definition is "Downflooding angle means the static angle from the intersection of the vessel's centerline and the waterline in calm water to the first opening that cannot be closed weathertight and through which downflooding can occur."

So downflooding angle safety certification for bad weather apparently assumes the boat being in a buttoned-up condition. But, buttoned up, the yacht has no air conditioning or non-battery power. One article mentions that lowering the moveable keel for more stability results in a much noisier environment below decks. So, rigged fully for bad weather, it ceases to be a luxury yacht.

The ship was in harbor, at anchor. That's not usually a situation in which a ship is rigged for worst case conditions.

Here's a picture of the infamous mast.[1] It's not just a pole. There's a lot of structure with surface area. Nobody seems to have anticipated that wind on the bare mast system was enough to knock the boat down. But it was.

Pete Warden: How an Ex-Apple Dev Found a Big Security Flaw
For me that is very different. Regarding conferences I wrote above, while at the same time I am working remotely for 15 years.

In remote work with zoom meetings for me (may be different in other jobs)

* Most meetings are in small groups/teams and more discussion, where the feedback problem works better than a conference talk for 100 people
* I know most of the audience, thus know what this expected to present, where the audience got experience and which humor does (not) work
* In many meetings I can keep it running on the side while doing some other work and only give attention to the parts relevant for me
* and am not involved in all that office noise and all the related distractions, but focus on my actual work

My boss of course has to trust me I do my stuff instead of standing behind me.

For larger milestones etc and socializing having in person meetings once in a while is important. But day to day remote massively reduces distractions and removes a lot of irrelevant stuff.

> The authors feel no need to bend over backwards to fulfill oddball distribution requirements.

This is close to the truth in my opinion, but slightly off in two ways:

- It's not just distributions, it's also other software, especially desktop environments.

- The "oddball requirements" are not so odd and mainly based on real world problems users run into.

There are problems that SysVinit will never try to solve, yet that there is no other obvious place to solve except for pid 1, so systems that continue to run SysVinit will just never have solutions for those problems. And I get it: You don't care. However, the people who actually work on free software often do. You don't have to love systemd, D-Bus, Polkit, UPower, UDisks, Pipewire, Wayland or any other number of pieces of software, protocols, or specifications, but you have to be in pretty strong denial to not see what lead to them. The entire Linux desktop can't be built on janky shell scripts that parse CLI tool output forever. Eventually, people want to move on and build more complete solutions to problems.

Distributions exert pressure on the ecosystem because they're the ingress for all of the user pain. A vast amount of issues reported go through them first, and then it's up to them to figure out what to do about it. So if you have a problem with anyone, it's probably not actually the distributions themselves, but the kinds of things the users of those distributions are complaining about.

Aren't banks sort of the poster children for legacy practices though? Only works with this or that browser, here are some weird password rules, yes I have an SVGA monitor, no I can't search older than 90 days, etc. I'm used to turning off my modern expectations and just getting into the 20 years-old flow for the time I'm logged into the average bank. No, I don't want to switch banks (where my mortgage and dozens of ACH linkages are set up) to have better ad blocker compatibility.
2 decades worth of development usually also mean 2 decades worth of tech debt.

Most time consuming part of development of old software is trying to go around limitations inherited from past decisions.
Based on the products name I think this was the main goal--to replace windows' bundled notepad.exe. For me, notepad.exe had some ridiculous issue, which I can't remember (I think maybe a very low limit on the file size?), that forced me to look for a replacement ca. 2005. The other piece of software from that time I'm still using is sumatrapdf.
You should probably put a one-click "I don't want to be charged anymore" button in any communications to the customer, to make sure you're not pushing them into a payment loop they don't want.

Because let's face it, half of your
'subscription-based companies' are banking on customer forgetfulness and high-effort cancellation flows to drive retention.

These are major factors that you _shouldn't_ attempt to 'solve' by successfully charging the customer for services they don't use or want.

If you do that, your whole business model will just be riding the underbelly of dark design patterns.

No. Exact rules depend on the state, but most states don't consider students to be residents for tuition purposes just because you live there for a year. They look at other factors like where your parents live, where you pay taxes, whether you own real estate there, etc.

You see there was a prophecy among the Bene Gesserit that a careful human breeding program could produce a genetically perfect man who could survive taking the water of life. This would enable in him an ability similar to that the Guild Navigators employ to guide their ships, but for the course of all humanity rather than the course of a single heighliner.
Poe’s Law strikes again…
Which rich people are you talking about, the buyer or the seller? Presumably the buyer of a startup is richer than the startup founders. If poaching all the employees of a company was legal, then we’d end up with only monopolies by the largest and richest, and it would be legal for big companies to crush smaller competition. The playing field in the U.S. and everywhere globally is definitely biased toward the rich, but you’re inadvertently arguing for even greater concentration of wealth, it doesn’t seem like this argument is well thought out.
Huh, why wouldn't that alias work?

Regarding Israel, I don't think it has made any grave mistakes. The 'Iron Beam' is set to be deployed next year, which will resolve most of the cost issues.

I’ll refrain from discussing the future of this war until the U.S. elections, as that will be a pivotal moment

LeetCode wizard: Ace your next coding interview
Support for linux was there, since the very early days of Azure. But at the time this was clearly Nadella's baby. AWS was running away with market share, and Azure gained some decent marketshare, at one point they said 25% of Azure revenue was on Linux, this was about 5 years ago or more, that can only have grown to now. No one lays that credit to Ballmer.

Microsoft's documentation wouldn't even acknowledge the present of Linux, I kid you not, till maybe 2012 or so. For example, pathnames like "My Folder" (spaces in folder names) - which are a no-no on any kind of server code (leave alone the block letters). This was as someone pointed out, Gates, since he was the tech architect (and hated linux or feared it ). In a sense, Linux rescued Azure, and Microsoft. Quite ironic, today we see Gates smiling (cluelessly imo), but Window's is still not a good environment for development - be it C# (a fine language), or Web. My colleagues on Windows struggle to run any Python code - all you need to do is git clone, followed by Pip install - that's still a challenge comparatively on Windows.
In-state tuition discounts also have the perverse effect of encouraging state college administrators to admit more out-of-state and foreign students who pay full tuition.

It doesn't, really, tbh... One just feels that Doctors would offer the care that starts with "do no harm".

And I say this as the child of two Doctors from developing countries who spent their ~50 year working lives serving under-served communities, with little to no material benefit to themselves.

IMHO the whole medical + healthcare industry in the US is so incredibly complex with so many misaligned incentives -- mostly away from the end user/consumer -- that the various attempts to reform the system have themselves have created their own set of perverse incentives.
Not to say that medical care in the US isn't top-notch... It indeed is, its just that the comparative bang-for-the-buck in the US is much less than in other developed economies (e.g. western europe, canada, etc.).

Which is why I when I see Doctors / labs / hospitals 'scamming' patients in various ways, it feels like every player is only optimizing (locally!) for themselves than for the end user. Just so utterly demoralizing...

Yes, if you consider #1 an issue, then you're right. But I'm not sure that's an issue that should actually be addressed, because:

1. It's not anything new, unlike this "ghost jobs" thing which is a supposed new phenomenon. This makes it less likely that the status quo can be improved.

2. I believe the reason the status quo is as it is is because most companies are inundated with job applicants, many of them not even passing a basic qualifying test (e.g. people with no FE experiecnce applying to FE positions with min. required experience of 5 years).

I don't know if this is true for the HN thread, having never posted to it. It's possible it's much higher signal here so this issue becomes less relevant.

Anyway, just my 2 cents, mostly as an outsider to these threads.

Understanding Warmup-Stable-Decay Learning Rates
I have a bet going that their next Steam Deck is going to have an ARM processor.

Allegedly NVidia is working on a WoA SoC, now that Qualcomm's contract with MS has ended. If NVidia puts their recent capital gains into a performant ARM chip like Apple (tapeout alone would likely run in the billion-dollar range), we can hopefully expect AMD to respond with something soon after. Once the chipsets are available, it's a matter of getting Linux to work with mixed page-size processes.

I have no idea how possible that is, but if the emulation performance is anything like Rosetta and the M1 proved possible, most users won't even notice.

The second link reignited my bias for Zeldovich as not having sufficient public recognition. I previously knew him as the originator of the idea of Hawking radiation (he predicted it around Kerr black holes, and told Hawking about that), but it looks like he also had major contributions to both the Soviet nuclear project and the vacuum energy problem (as you say still unsolved).
Agreed. It might share the title with the M1 Air which was incredible for an ultraportable, but the M1MBP was just incredible period. Three generations later it's still more machine than most people need. M2/3/4 sped things up but the M1 set the bar.
You should look into smoothing out the UX with toast or other notifications so users know whether they are waiting or not. For instance, "Daily Challenge" seemingly does nothing. Single player "Survival" is seemingly stuck waiting for another player.

It seems interesting but unfortunately I am entirely confused on how to use it. Buttons don't work, the tutorial references highlighting that isn't happening, other buttons seem to require multiple presses to work (such as selecting rock, paper, or scissor).

So you'd be fine with statements like "cyclists are assholes", or maybe even "undocumented migrants are assholes"? After all, in both cases you could argue that you're not meant to take those groups literally, only the bad elements within those groups. This is even a pretty common refrain by some. ie. "oh I don't hate all migrants, just the ones that's causing trouble". Where do you draw the line between "it's fine to seemingly bash an entire group of people because everyone knows you're not literally bashing the entire group" and "false rhetoric"?

America's economic strength doesn't rely on something as easily copyable as intellectual property.

Look at SpaceX. What they had perfected isn't going to be easily available in patents, homeworks for other people to copy, especially the Chinese. What they are willing to do is what other companies and organizations aren't willing to do. When SpaceX steadily made progress, people kept dismissing them until it's too late and now SpaceX is pushing ahead anyway.

It's a form of false strength, and there had been discussion about how detrimental patent laws are to innovations.
It runs with difficulty on Wine. Example: I have localization for Japanese fonts on my Linux system but it wasn't showing up in Notepad++. I love Notepad++, but that was the final straw.

> Finally, rather than merely be a pundit on this matter, I am instead today putting myself forward to try to be part of the solution. I plan to run for the OSI Board of Directors at the next elections on a single-issue platform: I will work arduously for my entire term to see the OSAID repealed, and republished not as a definition, but merely recommendations, and to also issue a statement that OSI published the definition sooner than was appropriate. I'll write further about the matter as the next OSI Board election approaches. I also call on other software rights activists to run with me on a similar platform; the OSI has myriad seats that are elected by different constituents, so there is opportunity to run as a ticket on this issue.
