Exactly. It seems like corporations are using the pandemic to ostensibly "protect workers" as an excuse in order to save money on paying workers. If customers blindly accept this sort of BS when there is no risk, then they're fools.

Yuck. The only way out of dependency hell is to disallow it by allowing multiple versions/different configurations of side-by-side packages and GCing non-leaf packages. This pattern of "only one global package for everything" is failure. Too often, naïve designers will just cut things because they just don't understand them or copy & paste because they don't understand what failures exist and what solutions do/alternatives could exist.

Habitat (hab), nix, and others IIRC do SxS package mgmt.

Everything Should Be Made as Simple as Possible, But Not Simpler - possibly paraphrasing Einstein

Who cares? I had the full NT 5/W2k codebase and have seen the NT 4 codebase. 3.5x is such a Windows Vista between 3.1 and 4.0.

It's interesting that Michael Moore is constantly promoting Anchor, which is owned by Spotify, like it's some nonprofit, benevolent savior. I guess it's to be expected when he says numerous measures to meaningfully combat climate change are also destructive with glaring false equivalencies, implying the only remaining purist moral high-ground is mass omnicide/suicide. Really? I lost all respect for him for this sort of dangerous unreasonableness and dishonest hawking of commercial wares.

X is fun for the next 4 days. If you're not on it, you're uncool and don't jump on whatever is popular because it's popular.

# Only exceptions, so far

I saw this and similar projects a long time ago. The problems include: the weird shape of living in a tube, not being at ground level, and hazmat/toxic aviation materials throughout. Seems more like hipster "recycling" impractical bragging rights that anything else, and I'm all for unusual dwellings made out of reclaimed (almost) whatever, concrete culverts, or underground sprayed concrete+fiberglass "eggs," but some things need proper recycling. Living in a nuclear reactor containment vessel seems like the next thing, but why?

In the SF Bay Area, you are (or were) able to see peacocks roaming about the Picchetti Winery near Cupertino.

And I would be careful around these types of birds because they are equipped similarly to cassowaries: they can kick to kill.

Yep.

Same number of letters, but different meanings

It's not a big deal, but the armchair lawyer in me cringes and throws an OCD tantrum when spelling, grammar, semantics, and linguistic conventions are abused. "Weight at the busstop" or "u know what i mean thatswut im saying haha he even said it tiwce" :sigh: :meta-sigh:

I skip ssh-agent and use gpg-agent instead, which does both ssh and gpg agenting. Combined with monkeysphere, I store ssh private keys in gpg rather than in the encrypted ssh format.

Remember how much Sunnyvale and Mountain View firefighters and police make. There was quite a list comprising tens of millions in salaries. It might be fine if the cities can afford it compared to their other liabilities. Ideally, they want the best people and best equipment they can afford if they have stable, deep funding. I think looking at the numbers alone is counting OPM; the results, value of services, and mitigation of risks need to be benchmarked.

Daily: Ca 1200 mg + Mg 80 mg + vitamin d3 6000 IU (150 mcg) + k2-7 100 mcg.

No kidney stones and minimizes osteoarthritis/porosis.

Anecdotal, unscientific nonsense. UV is no bueno.
