I am sorry but that does not make sense.

I am not sure I get what you are trying t say here. Whatever way we came to the demographics the fact remains that different occupations have very different proportions of liberals and conservatives so we best able to treat each other fairl

Yes, I am. Both parties have assholes and both parties have great people in roughly equal proportions. The exact shape of the insults the shitty people throw at each other does not matter .

As opposed to notorious for calling people violent, racist and hateful, since those are just accurate assessments, right?

I may have used the wrong term. I do not mean utilities in that sense, I mean they should act as carriers rather than publishers of information. That is more like the phone company and less like the NY Times.

by zarkov99 6y ago
Do you really think that the 50% of the population that is conservative is really much more prone to asshole behavior? Does that really make sense to you?

What difference would it make if Twitter was run by a conservative or a democrat as long as they were not meddling with the content? And if they are meddling the content, do you not think that this very dangerous given their dominance as a

It is a tough problem. I think social media companies should treated more like utilities than publishers and should not be held responsible for their content beyond removing illegal materials. I think they should provide their users with th

Liberals have a stranglehold in Tech. This will probably never change, its not the result of a conspiracy its simply an emerging phenomenon that arises from the over representation of traits like openness and curiosity in left leaning peop

Because corporations have disproportionate effect on the public and their mandate is to make money not proseletize whatever brand of BS the CEO happens to believe in.

Who is "you" here? Why do you assume I subscribe to corporation are people? Maybe stick to the actual point being made?

Maybe companies should be idelogical neutral instead? Or do you also think liberal America should start to appeal to conscientious and patriotical people so they can have their own armed forces and police?

Of course they do, they are a for profit company not some enlightened beings we should delegate our sense making to. The whole social media revolution is a net negative and human culture has not caught up to this yet.
554.
by zarkov99 6y ago
Its a big problem. On the one hand social media companies are utterly unsuitable for the role of arbitrers of truth. All they do is enforce the fashionable, safe truths, which might end up not being safe or true. On the other hand there is

They quit. The process selects for the most sociopathic because the fitness function is heavily weighted towards bringing profits in the short term. Ethics are only a consideration to the extent that they affect public perception (hence pro

Sure, I agree that for a few the lock down is genuinely tough. Surely for a few others its an improvement over their previous circumstances. For the majority however, specially those that can actually afford VR, its nothing but an inconveni

If you do not mind me asking, where do you live that you cannot step outside yet?

Thank you for you kindness, I will show similar restraint in not assuming that you are vastly exaggerating the worst possible outcome so you can play the victim. I looked, briefly, at travel bans. I see nothing that extends beyond 30 days f

by zarkov99 6y ago
I was the OP. And I did not say it was no problem at all, I said its not that big of a deal and that others have endured far worse with more dignity. Of course it would be better if we did not have a lock down.
560.
by zarkov99 6y ago
I would argue that it is your perspective that is narrow. Very few people are in danger of not seeing their loved ones for up 1.5 years. Even two more months stretches credibility.
561.
by zarkov99 6y ago
How does VR help you if you lost your job? As to the rest, yes, I suppose the lock down is easier for some than others, but I would suggest that for most its pretty fucking easy, and the amount of whining being done about it is a disgrace.

The difference is that I am happy to stay home. I believe it is the right thing to do for the tribe and an incredible bargain, an incredible cheap price for (minor) virtue and a sense of community, of togetherness.
563.
by zarkov99 6y ago
What is so hard about staying home with your family, working, reading, playing games and watching Netflix? Jeez, people in living memory have endured so much more, so much more gracefully.

Nothing. None of those things would be kept in the container. The only thing you would keep in your container would be the tools and libraries you need to build your project. You mount your home file system inside the container and just use

Sure, and now they can keep track of those customization in a reproducible way, by keeping their docker file under source control. What is the problem?

I do not use SEL, but on regular Ubuntu the below works perfectly with respect to permissions: #!/bin/bash docker run \ --rm \ --net host \ -i \ -v /etc/passwd:/etc&

by zarkov99 6y ago
I do think this is the future of development and all IDEs will need to support this use case very well. BTW, non reason to not have a GUI just start docker with: -v /tmp:/tmp -e DISPLAY=$DISPLAY And you should be able to

Docker is fantastic at precisely this use case: capturing tool and build dependencies in a reproducible way. I am not sure what performance issues you are complaining about. We run high speed trading services with single digit microsecond l

by zarkov99 6y ago
That is not a new problem. To some extent it already happens with debug and release builds, with running on a VM vs a real host, running on a different distribution than the one you developed in, etc. If the performance gains are significan

by zarkov99 6y ago
How transparent could the deployment target choice be? Could you deploy roughly the same source code to unikernel and non unikernel targets? Also, what exactly are these enormous performance benefits?
