Every populist party works that way, by promising very "sensible" thing. They work like an echo chamber for trendy political ideas.

Whether or not they are actually capable or even plan do any of that it's a different matter. Typically, they only end up being a coverup for political extremism. In then other cases they fumble and somehow mess up the situation even more.

Tbh I'm no5 sure I've even seen an IPO where the price didn't collapse initially.

I don't really get the point of the article. Even if I knew little about python, would be it surpsing that a language with no real basic types is probably abstracting a lot?

Even a simple i=0, i=i+1 is "hiding" a lot in python then.

I think this call for something similar to "__builtin_expect" or linux' likely()/unlikely().

Not very clean, but better than inserting obscure optimisations in the source.

Some level of english is required in every country. And you are exposed to it quite frequently in a way or the other (which european country doest start teaching it from elementary school? ). My uni required me to follow course in english and write and defend a thesis in English. You are exposed to english a lot. And on top of that it's a simple lanuge.

Try to lean polish, or chinese. Or german as a Japanese native. Won't be that easy.

I know some electronic and mech engineers with no german skills, but it's always in young startup in major cities.

I think there is also a chicken-egg problem in almost every country that doesn't use English as official language:

If you are not an engineer you must have an almost excellent level of local language --> an excellent level of a language is only possible if you are immersed daily over a long time and have the time to study --> to live there you need a job --> back to start

Different counties have different tolerances regarding how quick you pick up the local language. For Germany and France this tolerance is almost 0, for Netherlands it's much higher.

My friend if my thermometer reads 38-39 I don't need a walk to the doctor to confirm I need to rest for the day.

"As part of Merz's proposals, from January next year, workers will no longer be able to get a sick note over the phone. They must visit a doctor in person and on the first day of illness."

Can't wait to share the sbahn with feverish people or seeing a live diarrhea attack.

Ahh that's true, I forgot how badly prices are raising

Well it's also more than double the price

I imagine, be he mentions video playback on youtube making things worse, and he does have a dedicated amd gpu.

But iirc for both Firefox and chromium on Linux desktop hw acceleration is tricky so maybe it's that.

I see the problem, but I don't see a clear analysis on the actual source of the problem. I assumed the issue was mainly single core performance, but he is also suggesting context switches could be the cause?

So could you fix that with a new scheduler? Or you just need another SoC with better single core performance? I could imagine that the latter already exists, just not in soc with >16 cores. My naive view is that such high core count system comes with tradoff on core size and interconnect/memeory bus complexity.

And I mean.. my phone is a middle lower end device and for sure I can play youtube videos (maybe in a popup as well) and run the browser without noticing that much difference from my laptop.

Others comments already mentioned multimedia, but for example where I work we have some development board and prototypes with 10g ethernet, but most developers have a laptop rather than a fixed station. Turns out smallish (but overly expensive) thunderbolt 10g adapters can be used for testing and even reach full thoughput in many cases.

I only have a couple of things in /opt/ and some manually installed fonts, and vim plugins in my home. Everything else that I don't use often lives in the original cloned git repo in /home/projects and never really gets installed.

Of course the process breaks down for a large amount of packets, but I've never been in that situation. In part because the official repo is already large, and in part because I like minimalism.

If that even became an issue, I would manage a personal set of pkgbuild probably.

But it's one middle man less.

Git repo have been attacked other times in the past, but a 500/1000 stars project still sounds more trustworthy than a user repository managed by randos with a couple of upvotes. I still use the aur for simple cases, but when I see aur packages depending on multiple other aur packages I immediately leave.

I get it, but you only need to do that for the odd cases of packages not present in the official repo (not that common at all for me at least).

Also if the software is downloaded in the form of a git repo, you only needed to checkout the new tag and rebuild, don't need your browser at all.

I cringed hard when some people started to make pacman wrappers that could install from AUR directly.

I've installed stuff from the aur before but most of the times I prefer to skip the middleman and just navigate to the project website. A premade pkgbuild is not convenient enough to take the risk of typoquatting or the tactical npm or pip dependency.

So does a random number generator

Oh looks like there is. mkv does and looks like mpv and vlc will respect that flag. For other formats I'm not so sure

That's considered a feature in the community. Burning subs on the video trace is considered bad, but most video player will not automatically show any subtitle track.

A lot of these higher-end sbc have been out-of-stock for a while now, I've been trying to find an o6 since a few months.

I will add to the list that for some weird reason in my country original language is not always available for all movies, and the subtitle experience in genenal is lacking.

That's the thing. You only have the cool factor, but that wears off very quickly when you are maintaining legacy code and tools and then your collegues are playing with the new hot and shiny toys.

I won't write about the projects I've been involved with for privacy, but to give you an idea some of my old team members were involved in ams-02 for example.

I am no longer a junior, but would have been upset to be tasked with refreshing the old historical obsolete laundry (no matter how sacred or distinguished), expecially when I already had experience delivering safety critical products packing much more modern technologies.

The opportunity they would be offering is not rare at all! The opportunity to research and design something truly new on the other way is very scarce.

Let it write unit tests for every single function in the codebase lol

I've chosen the wrong profession.

The implication that eu is (rightfully) butthurt and don't what to relay on usa if there is the risk of meddling of any kind or blackmailed with denial of service (regardless if it makes sense here or not, this is entirely political).

And there is also the darker side of some eu parties pushing for more surveillance, and in that case stuff like signal would be kind of a problem as well.

It's owned by an American no-prrofit with a dedicated subsidiary, so still a commercial product and (more relevant) usa-based with all the potential implications. Wire is for profit but german-swiss.

I'm trying to design my own, and this project has been of great inspiration.

But for mine I really would prefer to wait for the RK3668. My past experience with the current soc is that it's a tad too slow for many cases.

The title ie a bit misleading:

The study want to prove that cocaine is yet another polluter thar alters the fish behaviour even in the small quantities that can be found in the wild in polluted areas. Not that something is special or different about cocaine pollution.

So the control group in this case are fishes with an implant with no drug at all.
