I think the key objective at Netflix is to manage downside risks while globalizing their content supply chain.

As an outsider with a professional interest in the language, it's hard (well, tiresome) to sift through the various committees and boards to identify the people who actually design and implement the language.

Is there a concise roadmap that's easy to share?

That's extremely good to know. I hadn't seen the officially supported Linux distributions, or your guide on Fedora. Thanks!

For earlier versions there was more commentary and information about Linux support. If we're comparing this with other consumer hardware, then it's just okay and I don't think it really stands out.

When I upgrade my current Framework, I'll still be looking for top of the line build quality and performance, running Linux out of the box. Right now Linux is a DIY option, and power management is frequently discussed in the community. There are also display quirks that I simply choose to overlook. To be considered successful, I'd expect to get it added as a laptop option at work. Not sure we're there yet.

Blue check on the app: probably 70/30 negative, with all the negative comments focusing on Yaccarino's official WEF involvement. Zero gender based or notably biolus comments, even after going back to try to scroll down into the content you're describing.

Incognito on the web: all negative, mostly WEF new world order scaremongering, anti-woke hand wringing, and outright offensive comments.

I'm charging it up and we'll see. It was fairly quiet for a while.

I have a specific use in mind, leveraging on-device speech recognition. Ideally I'll be able to achieve parity with the iPad.

I held on for a long time, and still have a lot of lock-in to unwind. Switching costs are pretty high, even for individuals.

I won't be putting all my chips on Apple either. I have a mix of file storage options, password managers, Linux laptops, 'hub' devices, and so on.

Funny, I just replaced my perfectly acceptable, but canceled and unsupported Pixel Slate (2018) tablet with an iPad Pro. No regrets.

There is an example in the article about compiler optimization, and they state that other similar instances may exist.

I see a fair number of all SSD clusters, but most have a mix of drive types. Interestingly, the ratio of drive types is aligned with optimal performance rather than cost.

There's some purposeful friction with DD when it comes to OTel.

Incumbents in this space are in for a rough time as more applications provide meaningful telemetry, beyond just logs. Fortunately for them that timeline is 'fuzzy' at best.

I don't immediately see any claims that this material is fit for all purposes regular concrete would be.

The first application that comes to mind for me is an alternative to styrofoam-fill insulating concrete forms. Biochar sounds like an improvement vs even waste diverted styrofoam.

This could be it. I'm on a Pixel 5, which I suppose is ancient in phone years.

Screen saver is disabled.

To clarify: the issue is that the screen stays illuminated when charging on the stand.

Pressing the physical button used to work, even with the current oddball settings. It only stopped being effective a few weeks ago, when using a wireless charging stand.

It still works when I switch back to USB charging. Presumably because it would be too easy to simply place the phone face down, effectively revealing user preference.

I had used an option like that, until about 6 months ago IIRC. It's gone now.

However I've just found something under Settings - Accessibility that might mitigate the problem a little more. Extra dim: dim screen beyond your phone's minimum brightness.

It still won't really be off though, most likely.

And the text labels on these settings belong in a Monty Python sketch about product management.

Something about Google's incentive structure is eating them alive.

For instance, there's an alarm setting on Android (Pixel) for "Night Mode: Very dim display (for dark rooms)".

Which I interpret as a Googler's way of saying: "my bonus is tied to minutes of display visibility while charging, so F users there's no way to turn the display off."

I hadn't seen in other reporting that government intervention was required to circumvent regulations which would have otherwise prevented the transaction.

That said, this source doesn't seem particularly authoritative.

Edit: the FT article covers regulatory intervention in its opening paragraph.

I'll add that I do end up disabling tests more than I'd like, even for very popular packages. Point taken there.

Granted, but I already have to run isolated container registries, pypi, maven, terraform, CI/CD, etc., etc., and so locally addressing the problems you've described is unavoidable and will realize significant efficiencies in any case. Everything about working in partially or fully air gapped environments is painful - no surprises there.

But I also think it's fine for individuals and researchers working in ML to expect some extra compiling, as long as the outcome is reliable. I'm stuck at home this weekend resurrecting an analysis from 10+ years ago, complete with Python, R, Java, and Fortran dependencies^, and I'm definitely wishing I'd known about Nix back then.

^btw, thanks to whomever included hdf5-mpi in Nixpkgs. Your work is greatly appreciated.

Just use Nixpkgs already.

Depending on the use case, I'd consider a foreign data wrapper.

Close, but I'd rather have a portion of my aggregator subscription be dispersed consistently, not just when I consume articles.

Legible News almost completely eliminates bias by providing short summaries of judiciously chosen stories.

One of the goals is to work with loggers to provide an alternative path to prosperity.

USB charging ports on aircraft.

Same goes for any sufficiently large population, but the outliers worth following still seem to be there too.

This is true of all questions.

Forced IRC only hours.

No idea who the technology leader might be, but I hear about Joby most frequently.
