Scheduling, relational modeling, parsing. These things come up all the time. Look at DCG:s if you want to quickly become dangerous.

This is a rather insulting ad for the authors business, which I'm assuming isn't going well since very little seems to have come out of it since 2016.

I don't get the impression that you actually help people migrate to Linux. When I do, I give them a flash drive and if necessary help them change the boot order, then they just answer what they understand and accept defaults on the res

Hard to tell if you're kidding, misinformed or something else. At "mid 1900s" Stalin had ruled the USSR for two decades.

Corporations commonly are persons, legally. Fictive persons, but still treated as persons. It's as if you could get a bank account for Tolkien's Gandalf.

They didn't make such an argument. It's a biographical rumination about the authors personal development and feelings.

I'm not sure what "AI-native" would mean but GT has LLM-integrations, support for working in distributed systems and a COBOL-bridge that has been used in managing transitions of legacy systems. Here's a talk about it: h

I'm sure some of them do. The last sentence makes a parallel to cops posing as buyers of illegal drugs, not purveyors, though I expect them to want that as well.

News like these cause "I Really Like the Cops" to start playing in the back of my head. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sX_EHeCbMqc

Why do you think they're scarred by it? Here's a recent news article about swedish politicians planning to make our cops synthesise CSAM, because they supposedly need it: https://www.aftonbladet.se/nyheter/a&#

All I can think about when reading this presentation is that Glamorous Toolkit pretty much has this and more.

Just go with the XFCE ISO and say you want to have non-free stuff, choose your locale and say yes to the partition plan, and you're done in like twenty minutes unless your storage is very slow.

Why would it take "hours and hours"?

Guessing this might be interpreted by some as a reference to Galileo so I'll take the opportunity to mention Against Method. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Against_Method

'Both capitalism and its nemesis arose in the mid 1900s, when humanity was obsessed with modernist thinking about "solving problems once and for all". And in that context, the people fell in love with these two "clean sy

Ubuntu is Debian with some MICROS~1 thrown in. Just go with Debian and tell the installer you want non-free stuff if you need certain drivers.

Sounds like the right place to voice this suggestion. If I only did it where everyone agrees with me it'd be a waste of time, of which none of us have very much.

Debian, XFCE. It'll be easy to use through point-and-click, decent hardware support, and the local nerds will almost certainly be able to reverse any software issues. Kids commonly enjoy drawing, so it's likely a good idea to inst

The people who developed the software for this ought to become outcasts from the profession, refused invitations to conferences, excluded from unions and so on.

Eh, I like keeping an eye on S&P 500 VIX to get a sense of the current mood among oligarchs and their institutions. I wouldn't use it for investment decisions, however.

Thanks for mentioning it, I had missed that one. Apparently it was an obvious insider hustle: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long_Blockchain_Corp .

I'm guessing the Fly Machine they're referring to is a container running on fly.io, perhaps the sprite is what the Spritely Institute calls a goblin.

They're best when picked fresh and young, i.e. easiest to collect in spring, it's kind of spinachy but with more texture. A bechamel base from butter, flour and broth or cream is all that's needed to make a good soup from cho

Arguably it goes back to chroot-stuff, and LXC predates Docker by some five years or so. I don't remember the details well but Solaris had similar containers, maybe even before LXC arrived. I'd say the clown popularised it outside

No, you can tell the image to not boot the 'world', only the application you've been building. The details probably vary a lot between versions of the language, but you wouldn't be forced to put system browsers and all t

My friends run hundreds of TB:s serviced onto the Internet for hobby and pleasure reasons. It's not all HA, NVMe, web scale stuff, but it's not like a few hundred TB:s is a huge undertaking even for individual nerds with a bit of
