He's a lynchpin in the sense that he consolidated power, but it isn't as though he's some kind of genius. He's just an extraordinarily successful criminal/gangster.

In fact, his playbook of installing a puppet regime and having them "voluntarily" integrate into russia isn't particularly original — the USSR did the same thing with the Baltic states in the 1940s.

So, others around him could certainly take the reigns and continue the status quo.

For peace and prosperity in russia and for russians, there would need to be a deep reformatting and denazification of the country.

I dislike it. Ostensibly this is taking on art museum snobbery, but many of these works are by amateurs and were literally pulled out the trash. It feels like an embittered teacher making fun of a kid, while the class snickers at the spectacle of public humiliation.

To each of the artists: congratulations for having the courage to trust in your imagination. I hope that others have engaged with your works with greater generosity.

EDIT: There’s a missed opportunity here for a critic to participate in the exhibition by praising the works sincerely. (If museum goers can detect sarcasm then the critique has failed.) That would be more fun and it wouldn’t even be hard since the works have already set expectations low.
The workflow is fine in theory. I just don't think the work to clean up the asset is a net gain on making it, yet.
> Best practices do not necessarily do harm because they offer bad advice, they do harm because they are advocated for by zealots and the inexperienced.

I think the point is that blindly suggesting "best practices" often is bad advice.

With a work of a size like "Voices of Fire", one has to consider the possibility that it hits differently in real life versus seeing a reproduction in a book or on the internet. For example, some people who were sceptical about the value of Mark Rothko’s paintings (which are fairly comparable in style) were won over once they saw the works in person. Or consider how Arvo Pärt, a composer who writes music in a style that could be labeled anti-modern, was moved almost to tears at seeing Anish Kapoor’s modern-art sculpture Marsyas.

Museums like the National Gallery of Canada like having in their collection pieces that might make people go wow, and tell other people who in turn might visit the museum.

RE this line of code at the bottom of the article:

const isInvokedByMouse = event =>
event.type === 'click' && (event.screenX !== 0 || event.screenY !== 0);

Why do you even have to check if screenX and screenY are non-zero (as opposed to just checking typeof event.screenX == "number")? Wouldn't that mean (and this is a wild edge-case) that if someone positioned their browser window so that the menu was in the top left corner (at position 0,0) the event handler would break again? Is this to block synthetic click events like (<div />).click()? Keyboard events don't have a screenX or screenY from what I remember as well.

After reading some of the comments, the next questions, why are automakers not building plants in Africa? Cheap labor force, cheap land, probably needs education and training. China is courting Africa, is the US?
Even without the bogus classifications, the EPA emissions regulations are inversely proportional to the footprint of the car. That rewards manufacturers for not offering small cars.

The "light truck" designation is made on the basis of features like cargo capacity and ground clearance. The Subaru Outback was properly classified as a car until the smaller PT Cruiser got its truck designation and they justifiably complained.

Does anyone else find this write up confusing?

My understanding from this is that BBC want slightly different behaviour depending on whether it's a mouse or keyboard "click" (keyboard shouldn't show the animation and should focus the first link in the menu).

However, they also want the ease of binding to a single event and while binding to "click" can do this, they have no way to tell whether it was a mouse click or keyboard press which triggered the event.

To solve this they're using an unreliable heuristic after realising in Chrome if the mouse position is screenX=0, screenY=0 it means the event was either triggered by a mouse click at screenX=0, screenY=0 or a keyboard.

As someone whose worked on accessibility projects in the past, this is a really stupid idea imo, and had I reviewed a PR with something like this I would have asked it to be reworked. While I agree browsers should ideally do the same thing, the real issue here seems to me that screenX and screenY make little sense on "click" triggered by a keyboard.

The solution ideally would be a new event ("trigger" or something) which doesn't emit a "MouseEvent", but something more generic which could apply to both a keyboard and mouse event and provide information about the "trigger" source. Imo keyboard "clicks" are weird to begin with and would ideally be fixed with a more appropriate event.

That said, I understand this doesn't currently exist in the spec and a solution is needed now. Therefore I don't see why they couldn't also bind to a "keydown" event then if the click is triggered alongside the "keydown" on the same element, assume it was a keyboard press. That would be far more reliable and far less hacky than what they're doing, and would allow them to trigger from the single event with a bit of extra code to detect if it was a keyboard or mouse.
I don't remember the source so, someone please correct me if I'm wrong but, I read that no EV battery can be made for less than $50K. So, either BYD is cutting some serious corners (possibly) or they are being heavily subsidized (probably). If either are true, I can see how that would be damaging to us.
Some will be of the opinion that what may not respect cultural heritage may not have the same worth.

Sorry.

Edit: I will express it again, and to stress the point: some things are the fruit of the drive towards construction. Some other things may be destroyers. So, it all depends. No, we will not attribute worth to destroyers.
This is honestly the coolest thing I've seen coming out of YC in years. I have a bunch of questions which are basically related to "how does it work" and please pardon me if my questions are silly or naive!

1. If I had a local disk which was 10 GB, what happens when I try to contend with data in the 50 GB range (as in, more that could be cached locally?) Would I immediately see degradation, or thrashing, at the 10 GB mark?

2. Does this only work in practice on AWS instances? As in, I could run it on a different cloud, but in practice we only really get fast speeds due to running everything within AWS?

3. I've always had trouble with FUSE in different kinds of docker environments. And it looks like you're using both FUSE and NFS mounts. How does all of that work?

4. Is the idea that I could literally run Clickhouse or Postgres with a regatta volume as the backing store?

5. I have to ask - how do you think about open source here?

6. Can I mount on multiple servers? What are the limits there? (ie, a lambda function.)

I haven't played with the so maybe doing so would help answer questions. But I'm really excited about this! I have tried using EFS for small projects in the past but - and maybe I was holding it wrong - I could not for the life of me figure out what I needed to get faster bandwidth, probably because I didn't know how to turn the knobs correctly.
Which makes the prospects of a replacement for either or both even more unlikely.
It doesn't "imply" nanometers, it literally reads nanometers. The standard abbreviation for nautical miles is "NM."
This is at best naive, and reads pretty smug and self-satisfied. You likely still have a military, and policing isn't really about the weapons a cop carries. Ironically less deadly weapons can encourage more liberal use, so maybe you can be proud of your higher rate of non-lethal beatings?

Some of this is an internal accounting problem. The net income (or loss) from operating a residency program depends on how you allocate associated revenues and fixed costs to it. But empirically the fact that teaching hospitals aren't all rushing to expand their residency programs indicates that they probably aren't profitable.

The value of residents varies a lot by experience and specialty. Like a 1st-year neurosurgery resident might be worse than useless and a huge burden to everyone around them. Whereas a 3rd-year family medicine resident can do a lot with minimal supervision.
Thanks for the question. We stage writes to a durable, shared caching layer. This allows us to respond quickly to your application when it performs these operations (<1ms), but then asynchronously send those operations to S3 later. When connecting through Regatta, all file system clients see a strongly consistent read-after-write view of the changes on the file system, even if they haven't yet propagated to S3.
I've posted this here before, but they really need globally unique codes for all the airports, waypoints, etc, it's crazy there are collisions. People always balk at this for some reason but look at the edge cases that can occur, it's crazy CRAZY
I don't recall what the price difference between K and non-K was at the time. I'm not a big fan of overclocking but I think the price difference must have been negligible. Or it might have been that the only "F" options (no-integrated-GPU) available at the time were also "K". Obviously I did not want an integrated GPU.

We did have a lot of fun when building the computers seeing how many "biscuits" each one reported. I guess this is some sort of measure of overclockability provided by Gigabyte motherboards, but we pretended it was a direct measure of how well the person assembling the computer did and congratulated or made fun of each other depending on the results.

The motherboard I got was literally the cheapest board that had a 10G NIC at the time. In retrospect maybe I should have bought separate 10G NICs.

Memory timing is a world I haven't gotten deeply into. I didn't spend a lot of time researching the RAM.

Key rollover hasn't been an issue. I have been using these cheap keyboards for gaming for a long time (had them in the old house too) and I simply have never had the experience of it not registering a keystroke due to too many keys being pressed. I'm pretty sure I commonly am holding shift and W and also press another key... though then again, I do tend to map commonly-used actions to mouse buttons...
France has dibs on Africa. Plus, the American manufacturing industry was our gift to and remains our primary bargaining chip with CCP. We wouldn't dare give it to anyone else.
The quoted sentence is poorly worded. The P and E cores are fully instruction set compatible. It isn't possible to meaningfully know ahead of time if the instructions will be used on any given core, and trapping along with a migration is expensive and needless. The M4 as a whole does not support the SVE/SVE2 extensions anywhere, which is what the article is saying in the given quote.

The M4, on all cores, does support the SME extension, which includes a subset of SVE instructions at a wider vector length (512-bits), optimized for throughput. SME instructions are handled by a separate accelerator coprocessor unit attached to each cluster, shared by a number of cores, and don't "exist" in the normal instruction pipeline (where e.g. 256-bit SVE2 instructions would be handled.) This was all true of the proprietary Apple AMX extensions in previous cores as well, as far as I'm aware.
> I exclusively buy Toyotas because they are cheaper to maintain than American cars.

I think Teslas are actually cheapest, by brand.

> It frustrates me that US car manufacturers continue to make exclusively heavy, low-efficiency vehicles.

The market has decided that they want cars from Toyota and trucks from Detroit. I can't really blame the automakers from focusing on what makes them the best profit.

I'd dispute the low efficiency claim. My Ford pickup is way more efficient than anything Toyota makes. And even strictly comparing like-for-like, Toyota is on the lower efficiency end of that market.
> Even if charging infrastructure was perfect EVs still require a significant amount of time to charge compared to refueling an ICE vehicle.

That's just down to charging infrastructure no? Sure, there are physical limits to how much electricity one can move in a given time, but we are nowhere at those physical limits.

So it's just down to infrastructure in the end. If there was infrastructure to quickly and reliably charge EVs, ICE would only have niche advantages.
Would you mind letting us know which country you're from? If Russia invaded your country, claimed part of your land, how far would you let them go, just to preserve peace? Is there a cut-off point for you, or none at all?
Uh..

If we turn St Petersburg into rubble, I doubt anyone will be worrying about a few trifling conventional weapons. NATO and Russia go at it, and we're all just sitting around next month waiting for the Chinese, Brazilians, Indians and South Africans to sort out who is responsible for which relief efforts.

Actually, now I think about it, that quad will probably be far more concerned with determining the disposition of the remaining NATO/Russian warheads. So even relief efforts might be impacted by their more pressing concerns.

In any case, the world would just be a mess for a good long while.
Thanks! It's been a fun side hobby project for me. I typically crank out contract work day in and day out.

I got the proof of concept done in a month or so. It took a little longer since I wanted to build it on 100% Cloudflare Workers for ideally low cost, scale, and speed. Other low-pressure things I was trying too.

It has sat around for almost a 1/2 year now unlaunched where I have just added small features here and there.

Over the next few months, I plan to release a ridiculous amount of high quality Tailwind themes for people to start from amongst some other marketing efforts.
Its not just the weapons. In parts of Europe you can get arrested for posting the wrong kind of meme online.

As a side note, when trying to research this you'll see weird double speak fact checks like below:

> Fact Check: 11-year-old arrested on suspicion of violent disorder after riots, not ‘mean tweets’

> Sending grossly offensive, obscene, indecent, or menacing messages on public electronic communication networks is a criminal offence in Britain under Section 127 of the Communications Act 2003

> Misleading. An 11-year-old was arrested on suspicion of violent disorder, not for social media posts, during a swathe of arrests by British police targeting those involved in rioting.

But then the authors don't write what 'violent disorder' is.

Then they try to further confuse the matter by talking about a completely unrealted 11 year old boy that was arrested for suspicion of arson

> The spokesperson said the 11-year-old, one of five juveniles arrested on suspicion of violent disorder by the force on Aug. 28 in relation to the riots, was later bailed.

> Cleveland Police arrested another 11-year-old on suspicion of arson after a police vehicle was set alight in Hartlepool on July 31, according to the spokesperson and an Aug. 1 statement, opens new tab . The child was also released on bail, the spokesperson said.

And this isn't some weird online political rag, it's Reuters. It's all very strange.

They are crutches and will be the worst of both worlds when EV fast charging infrastructure becomes as ubiquitous as gas refueling is today.
True true. I went back and forth so much in the early days of CodeIgniter, Rails, Fuel and Cake.

Eventually discovered just building stuff was going to bring me the most joy, no matter the tool. It's been a joy learning PHP again though, even if I do suck at it right now.
This looks cool. I'm looking forward to seeing the progress on the GPU acceleration.

I'm a maintainer for openpnp-capture and I've always had the thought of hardware acceleration in the back of my mind, but I didn't really know how I would go about it. Reading the comments on using shaders for color space conversion really opened my eyes.

I like that this is in Rust. It should make it very portable over time and Rust's dependency management and builds should make it a heck of a lot easier to distribute on multiple architectures (if you intend to).

Looks awesome, good luck!
When you say micro framework, what are you looking for? If you're just looking for a routing library then something like Symfony Flex might be what you want.

I find when I start a project I pretty quickly want to add an ORM, models, and maybe some middleware, and then I'm at a point where I might as well just use Laravel because it's fast enough and I know my way around.
Sure, but which is the cause, and which the effect?

Edit: Huh, a totally legitimate question that points directly at the underlying cause, and downvoted to the limit. Does it hurt that much to admit that people are getting exactly the government they want?

> validating someone's real-life identity sufficiently would make it possible to permanently ban malicious individuals and filter out bots with good effectiveness, but it will destroy anonymity online. In my opinion, literally untenable.

Not only untenable because of the privacy invasion but also because there are too many users who are willing to click on whatever for a chance to win a prize and thereby authorize use of their identity for spamming.

> approaches like Web Environment Integrity and Private Access Tokens

That stuff never works because the spammers only have to break one model of one popular device. The people proposing it are snake oil salesmen or platform companies that want to use it for lock-in, because spammers spend the resources to break the system but normal users won't put up with the inconvenience, which locks out competitors and interoperability.

> Accountability of network operators

This largely already happens. Disreputable IP blocks get banned. But then you get a botnet with users on ISPs with varying levels of willingness to do something about it and the ones that do something about it still can't do it instantaneously and some of the ones that don't care are in jurisdictions you can't control but are also too big to block.

The best solution is probably some kind of "pay something in money/cryptocurrency/proof of work to create an account" because normal users need a small number accounts kept for long periods of time but spammers need a large number of accounts that get banned almost immediately, which is exactly the sort of asymmetric cost structure that results in a functioning system.
With this kind of setup you can stay connected to the grid. In the event that your solar and storage fail unexpectedly you can still pay for grid electricity.
you need to read up on the economics of "public goods", other people have thought this through before you. In a nutshell, police and fire protection benefit everyone, because if your neighbor has low crime or low chance of fire spreading, that also benefits you, so it makes sense to include everyone in the plan. But while the $7500 was paid for by everybody else, the only person with the $0 electric bill is GP, which does not have any fairness property.

The socialist mantra "from those with the ability" includes GP who has the ability to pay for this so that other people's needs can be met.
I have a few qualms with this app:

1. For a Linux user, you can already build such a system yourself quite trivially by getting an FTP account, mounting it locally with curlftpfs, and then using SVN or CVS on the mounted filesystem. From Windows or Mac, this FTP account could be accessed through built-in software.

... I'm kidding, this is quite useful.

I really wish that NFSv3 and Linux had built-in file hashing ioctls that could delegate some of this expensive work to the backend as it would make it much easier to use something like this as a backup accelerator.
