Reddit is not GPL so while hostile it’s incomparable to WordPress core. The user base of Reddit would have to rewrite from scratch. Wordpress can and will be forked if it comes to it. There are enough businesses relying on it that it would be worth it to re govern it under an alternate name.
>So that momentary pause you feel when you almost say "Indian" and then correct it to "Native American"

Here in Canada it's "Indigenous peoples", sorry, I mean "First Nations", unless they've come up with something else now. Never mind that the people in question don't necessarily feel any kind of solidarity with other indigenous groups beyond their own.

(Also, "missing and murdered indigenous women (and children)" is a set phrase, and people will yell at you if you point out the statistics showing that something like 70% of missing and murdered indigenous people in Canada are men.)
> English is defined by its usage

To an extent, but people using language incorrectly isn't a reason for everyone else to start using it incorrectly also.

> the historical sense of that phrase is not actually in live use outside of "well actually" hypercorrections.

No, it's pretty active and certainly in live use, just not in areas you participate in. It's very disingenuous or ignorant to call the correct use 'historical'.
From the perspective of someone who was not raised in the culture in question, this is a distinction without a difference.

I'm not sure what point you're trying to make.

He is his parents' child. As they are the children of their parents, and they are of theirs.

There is no sperm or egg that could have had him born as a Japanese man in outback Australia. He is the culmination of generations of ancestors' accomplishments, as is the civilisation they have built for themselves and their descendants.
It's good to see that they were pretty conservative about the expansion.

Not only is expansion completely transparent and resumable, it also maintains redundancy throughout the process.

That said, there is one tiny caveat people should be aware of:

> After the expansion completes, old blocks remain with their old data-to-parity ratio (e.g. 5-wide RAIDZ2, has 3 data to 2 parity), but distributed among the larger set of disks. New blocks will be written with the new data-to-parity
ratio (e.g. a 5-wide RAIDZ2 which has been expanded once to 6-wide, has 4 data to 2 parity).
Yeah? That is what some meaties keep telling me too — but personally I have only met one such vegan in my life and they were obviously deeply troubled by other things as well. All others merely kept to themselves and only talked about it when someone else prompted them. And that someone else was often a meaty with a: "Oh you are a vegan? Now explain THIS".

I don't know about you, but I don't give a damn about made up problems that aren't part of my life. Don't get me wrong, I can totally imagine smug vegans. I just made the observation that 99 percent of the ones I met would receive a disservice if I went under the assumption that "all vegans are smug assholes".

Similarily my assumption for meat eaters isn't that all of them are assholes. But I observed there are people who are so triggered by the mere thought of vegans existing, they can't stop talking about it or demanding from any supposed vegan that they explajn themselves — so the exact thing they claim vegans do.
You are still ignoring the point I've brought up repeatedly: those who move first have the most to lose.

You act like moving gradually has no danger for the plugin authors. You've moved 5% of plugins over. Whoops, Matt stole their listings, and since you didn't reach critical mass nobody uses your WP fork which points to your new plugin directory.

You've just wiped out the livelihoods of 5% of plugin developers.

Vacant property is quite a drain on one's pocketbook.

Try it some time.

When I move and sell the old house, I underprice it to sell it as fast as possible. The other sellers do not seem to understand the time value of money, the maintenance cost, the taxes, the vandalism, and the squatter risk. Oh, and your insurance goes up if the house is vacant.

And never mind having $800,000 or so tied up as a millstone around your neck when you could be investing it in stocks.
I've seen a lot of work from Stephen Kotkin over the Soviet Union and it wouldn't surprise me. The Soviet Union went through three major famines between 1932 and 1947 [1]. As is often the case, the situation was worse in states that were ruled by the Soviet Union than in the main country itself. For example, the Ukrainian Famine was much worse than the famine in Russia (Russia population grew in this period while the Ukrainian population declined) [2].

I can't find statistics on mortality in Armenia for the 1980s period, but I think it's fair to say that it probably was similar to some modern corrupt regimes like Congo or South Africa. For example, in these countries, the annual death rate from road injuries in 2021 was around 40-50 per 100,000 people [3]. So that means that over a lifetime of about 50 years, a person on average has a chance of (50*50) / 100 000 = 2.5% on dying from road injuries. For comparison, this rate is 4 times higher than the US and 13 times higher than Western Europe. If you then are someone who is outside a lot, then yes I would say it's not unthinkable to be near multiple fatal accidents in one lifetime.

I can only surmise you’re referring to Daring Fireball, not James’s blog. You might want to check your monitor’s color calibration (specifically its white point) or brightness setting.

FWIW I have 4 sonos devices in my home and I've got basically zero problems. I guess I mostly use Airplay to control them but I do occasionally use the app and it's fine.

I'm really not sure what all the fuss is about.
As much as I don't like NPM, these issues aren't limited to NPM. It's just that NPM is getting so much attention that we're more likely to find and hear about these issues when when they target NPM.

I'm fairly concerned about the state of Python packages. It's not every week, but I frequently stumble upon packages that are not what they appear to be. Sometimes not maliciously, sometimes the author just got overly ambitious and failed to deliver, other times, someone is clearly typo-squatting or attempting to get you to install the wrong thing.

You can find one of those definitions in the dictionary and not the other one.

But it's not two people disagreeing about the definition anyway. It's the same person trying to use different definitions in different contexts in order to conflate opposition to an unreasonable position with opposition to a reasonable one.
I'm a Sonos hater. I will never ever buy a speaker again that comes pre-bricked unless you "activate it".

I will never ever buy a speaker again that demands I enable precise location in order to "discover" the speaker on my network. Approximate location is not enough. Sonos demands your home address before it permits you to use your speaker. Even aux line-in.

I will never ever buy a speaker again that requires I log-in before I can set certain things unrelated to online use, such as the volume limiter.

I will never ever buy a speaker again that has an obscene amount of delay even when using the aux line-in. And yes I toggled the setting in the app to "reduce delay" and followed all the steps to reduce the delay as much as possible, but the delay was still there. Forget about using a Play5 gen2 for home theatre or anywhere you need low-latency. Rant over!

POSSE is the way.

I don't have a blog, but I POSSE by keeping stuff I write in Obsidian.

The internet is a circular loop of "engagement", the same crap comes up everywhere. People as recommendations for the same stuff, argue about the same things.

I got tired of rewriting the same thing from memory so now I have it pre-written (And sourced in some cases) in Obsidian. I can just copy-paste from there with minor modifications and updates and spend less energy in shooting down the most common misconceptions.

Might turn it into a blog later, but I've tried it a few times and I always end up bikeshedding about blog engines and themes and deployment :D

This makes me sad. Not the Secure Transport part, the BearSSL part.

I was about to use libcurl with BearSSL for a project.
At my first job almost 10 years ago we had the concept of "X-in-a-box" using Vagrant + VMs and I miss that pattern so much ever since (multiple job skips later).

None of my jobs since have had any semblance of a better way to set up a local dev environment easily.

It was just way easier to encapsulate services or other things in a quickly reproducible state.

I digress..

The DSPs in sound bars are absolute marvels. I haven't checked the AV amp market in a good half decade, but I'm guessing there aren't any valid options if you want 4k 120Hz + room correcting DSP that are even close to the price of a mid/high end sound bar.
Fair enough. I see the message I replied to got the same warning. Fair play.
I always say this too. But the real trick is knowing what to let thru. You can’t just shield your team from everything going on in the organisation. You’re all a part of the organisation and should know enough to have an opinion.

A better analogy is you’re there to turn down the noise. The team hears what they need to hear and no more.

Equally, the job of a good manager is to help escalate team concerns. But just as there’s a filter stopping the shit flowing down, you have to know what to flow up too.
I wonder how this is mitigated by my current workflow of running jupyter and vscode from a docker container.

I did not start doing this because of security, but just to get something more or less self managed without any possibility to break different projects. I am tired of my team spending too much time on extensions, versions, packages, ...

Docker compose files have saved our team many hours, even if it's extremely wasteful to have multiple vscode instances running alongside each other

They could, would and should. But: Training a state of the art LLM costs millions in GPU, electricity alone. There is no "open" organization at this point that can cover this. Current "open source public models" are shared by big players like Meta to undermine the competition. And they only publish their weights, not the training data, training protocols, training code; meaning it's not reproducible, and questionable if the training data is kosher.

I have never understood how an entire nation was so successfully brainwashed into being anti-union.

In Austria, every year the unions negotiate salary increases for almost all job groups (IT, metal work, etc.) and this is very important to keep our wages at least up with inflation. No-one would ever think this is a bad idea here.

IMO Sound bar + sub is perfectly enough for 90% of home theaters, with properly placed rears it easily goes up to 98%.

Just a basic sound bar instead of the shitty rear-firing TV speakers is a complete game changer for few hundred monetary units.
More importantly, how do you challenge social/moral injustice or push for good change without being dismissed as "woke"? Or do we not care about that now that we're just in it for ourselves?

As we've recently established, we apparently do like to watch the world burn and maybe that's just where we're at for now, like a pressure release valve.

Perhaps I am misunderstanding you, but you can offline and remove drives from a ZFS pool.

Do you mean WSS and mdadm/lvm will allow an automatic live rebalance and then reconfigure the drive topology?
Resources that teach AI through Projects?
I finished Replit's 100 Days of Code for python; this was the first time I programmed.

Now, I'm looking for resources that are 1) up to date (APIs, libraries) and 2) focus on building projects.

I don't have a specific domain with AI, but I want to focus on the fundamentals so I can better decide where to pivot to next (I find DL, GenAI, and AI agents the most interesting domains).

What are resources that teach AI similar to how Replit teaches python (project-based learning)?

Deference to authority is a mantra. General complaints about the prevalence of opinion is a mantra, general complaints that everyone is looking for offence is a mantra.

It might not have been at a commencement speech, but didn’t Feynman say, “Have no respect whatsoever for authority; forget who said it and instead look at what he starts with, where he ends up, and ask yourself, 'Is it reasonable?“. You are doing your hero a great disservice. Or perhaps you have a specific opinion on the article.

git is a great portable standard. But if I were GitHub, I'd make damn sure I didn't have issues, actions, and the rest of it be based on something users could just yank out in a portable format and take elsewhere though.

Portable VCS is simple. Portable anything with the integration everyone expects (issues connects to source which connects to builds which connects to releases) is hard. Git being so open and portable means it isn't a moat.

This. I mean, he says that comedy defeated political correctness on the years up to 2000, but then entirely omits what happened in comedy immediately afterwards.

Love a bit of no-holds-barred 00's comedy.. well, some of it.. but I don't think anyone should find it surprising that there was a cultural backlash.

"You can offend anyone as long as you offend everyone" was the rule of the day, which failed to account for some having much thicker skins than others.

It's also worth noting that up until about 2008, free speech was broadly identified with progressive/Left views not conservative/Right. I'm not sure when or why exactly the right lost interest in censoring sex and violence in the media, but they quietly let that drop just around the time the left became more censorious.

Now for me personally, the kind of populist-conservative that hangs out with strippers whilst pursuing abortion bans is the worst kind of hypocrite, but I guess for a lot of people it's something more like wish-fulfilment.

> you think we'd be in any different of a situation if junk food were made with cane sugar

That's pretty much the main difference between soft drinks inside the US and outside the US. Soft drinks are a big part of the problem. You see lots of people getting addicted to the sugar rush and drinking that stuff by the bucket load (conveniently supplied in huge containers at your favorite fast food place).

Obesity is a growing problem in many places; but the US is where it all started and where the problem is the largest. The correlation between excessive corn syrup consumption and obesity is not something that needs a lot of arguing.

Correlation is not the same thing as causation of course. But still, if you want to run an experiment where all the corn syrup gets replaced by regular sugar, leave the US and observe people around you. Most things are the same. But you'll have hard time finding anything that contains corn syrup. It's just not a common ingredient anywhere outside the US. There are other differences. But that would be the big elephant in the room.

Sorry about the bad puns here.

I was just thinking about this, but with the Ukraine war going on, and both sides eating through tens (hundreds) of thousands of drones each day, the perception of DJI being a military company might very well be justified.

I mean, how many regular people buy drones, and how often? My guess would be one in 50 buys a new drone every 4 years. With that kind of demand, I guess Russia and Ukraine's drone demand might be equivalent to the entire Western world's

If those drones feed back camera data and telemetry, the Chinese might have access to the biggest military drone training dataset in the entire world by far.
