That makes you very out of step with most Americans. You choose to pick on the obese because it’s more socially acceptable, but also people with cancer, kidney disease, etc. Your position would be considered deeply immoral by most people (

Yeah, I find the LGs to be really annoying. The Sony seems to be much better.

My neighborhood has both cable and fiber, both >= 1Gbps, fairly cheap My neighbor has starlink. I assume because they are MAGA.

Yeah, personal (desktop/laptop) vs production are totally different. The production workload should be well understood and stable.

We looked at this a lot (it was a lot of money at our scale). A cgroup itself is just a few small data structures. And a reasonable process inside will only ever have a small amount of dirty memory it won’t ever use. Even then you can’t

The oom killer is a monkey with a gun. It’s a last resort when you were going to crash (or worse, hang) anyway. You should have a much better “plan A” to avoid this situation.

Read only pages (most of libraries and binaries) get “paged out” to the file they came from, not swap. (They obviously don’t page out, they are just discarded and read again when needed)

It does not need it at all. I’ve run a million+ hosts with no swap. You need to be really disciplined about memory allocations (us cgroups) and ok with what happens if you run out (something in that cgroup dies). But there is no “houseke

You can publish a fully stripped image (as people do now for exif), and retain the original

You can remove it all. If authenticity later becomes an issue you can produce the original.

AIUI, they should never have gotten that far. They should have gone around at 1000 feet.

It’s the word I have always seen utilities use in the US.

A hope (fantasy?) I have is that fleet robo taxis will (as part of regulations) get standardized “black box” recorders that can be admitted as evidence. Both for incidents, but also general traffic enforcement.

That’s odd. In my neighborhood probably 50% of houses have a 1/2 address in the back. We have had solicitors walk through our side yard convinced they are going to the 1/2 address (which we don’t have). Maps seems to show them al

MBAs, consultants and accountants have taken control of the company. All are in it to move up and cash out. They will optimize for profit and not much else. Loosing (or even defending) a defamation case is expensive. Spiking your review

Both jobs already need to be designed around some expectation for how often people need to use the restroom. If individual exceptions are not feasible, they design the job so that it works for everyone.

Number go up, I guess? A lot of people derive great satisfaction from ever larger (or sometimes smaller) number. But, uh, 8X is probably too much, need to spread that out over a few generations.

How would that work? I thought the premise here is that you can fool the apple camera by taking a (very carefully aligned) picture of a still image (printed out). A depth map from the apple camera (again, signed) would show that the entire

American politics has often been about pitting one group against another. Convincing them that others are benefiting at their expense, or that they will in the future.

Correct. The industry employs many many middle and lower income people in LA.

They (Ellison) don’t. They want to pressure state law enforcement to give them a pass.

They are threatening to move out of state if the laws are fairly enforced. This concerns workers in the film industry, and people in LA generally.

That’s not a great measure. The state was still growing very fast. The better metric would be state expenditure as a fraction of state gdp
