41,797,403 | comment | nullc | 2024-10-10T10:25:33 | null | Qubes does have answers to the device stuff, like sticking network devices in a network vm, which only talks to a firewall vm, which talks to your other vms. There is a reasonable gui interface where you can just plug devices into particular VMs for other things.<p>In my usage I've never felt the need to share stuff other than the network/sound/storage stuff that qubes make just work. Other devices tend to be just plug them into the particular VM that needs them. YMMV.<p>I would say that perhaps containers could do just as well, or some other technology. The thing qubes brings to the table is that other people are doing most of the heavy lifting to make a usable desktop out of a highly virtualized system.<p>There may be path dependent reasons why qubes approach isn't the best possible... but it doesn't matter because so much stuff just working is worth so much. That the compromise we always make when running a distribution... one could meta-x butterfiles and write your own kernel from scratch, or whatever. Or you can run a system created by others. Their system may have decisions you disagree with or are objectively bad, but they saved you 12 months of tinkering with the dynamic linker-- well worth it. :)<p>For me, the alternative of having my whole laptop compromised by some browser zero day or because a malicious party sent me some malware document was just not viable. I was already carrying two laptops for isolation, and suffering some anxiety from the residual risk. But in my case I've been targeted specifically (due to cryptocurrency bullshit), a friend and former colleague was hit with an astonishingly sophisticated attack that used stuff like BMC vulnerabilities on his web server and then traversal with X11 forwarding and stuff like that all to just break into his desktop.<p>So I'd probably be using qubes today even if I could only move the mouse with my tongue and the computer was slowed down to the speed for a 486sx. But the incorrect belief that it would be that kinda hit really delayed my adoption. It's a hit, it's real, but at least for my usage it was far smoother than I expected.<p>I think right now the only obvious wart I experience is that full screen video stutters pretty badly. So I just don't watch video full screen on the laptop now. There are things that might fix it, but I haven't bothered even trying.<p>There are benefits I didn't expect too. For example, The operating system image in a normal application VM isn't persistent, only your home directory. So you can just scribble all over the OS install in an app vm and it'll go away when you restart it. If you want it to be persistent you change the underlying templatevm. So to get something working I can totally take a chainsaw to my configuration confident I won't get stuck with anything broken. Once I figure out the changes I can apply just the required steps in a template.<p>Another benefit is that updating fedora versions is a riskless breeze--- install a new template vm. shut down your app vms, click to change template. Restart them if some particular app vm is broken, switch it back and worry about it when you have time. | null | null | 41,797,288 | 41,796,030 | null | null | null | null |

41,797,411 | comment | lsaferite | 2024-10-10T10:27:40 | null | The whole divergence of this kerfuffle into the resource usage of WPE hosted WP sites against the WP.org site is a distraction and an ex post facto justification. Matt got twisted when WPE wouldn't pay Automatic and is lashing out. If he wanted them to cover costs for WP.org, that would have been a totally different conversation.<p>Even crying foul over WP.org costs is disingenuous though. It's not WPE consuming the resources, it's the sites they host for customers. It'd be like Matt demanding 8% of AWS revenue because so many sites are hosted by them and accessing WP.org resources. Simply collecting the hosting of multiple WP sites under one provider should in no way obligated the provider directly. Either it's a freely accessable resource for WP sites or it's not. It should not be subject to the whims of a single person and used as a tool in their personal crusade.<p>Given that it's clear that WP.org is not actually a freely available resource, it's imperative that the WP codebase be adjusted to not use that resource anymore.<p>As I've said in most of my posts on this, I'm not involved in the WP world and have no ties to any party to this debacle. | null | null | 41,791,904 | 41,791,369 | null | null | null | null |

IF you do not have children. The feeling of having children cannot be conveyed in words, it's something you have to do in order to understand and once you do have children, yes you realise that this is what your life's word has been building up to. The greatest gift we can give is life back into the world. I am grateful that we can do that in the modern world with a minimised risk of dying in childbirth or your child dying as an infant. | null | null | 41,797,084 | 41,797,084 | null | [

41,797,423 | comment | archi42 | 2024-10-10T10:30:28 | null | A router you can flash with a modern OpenWRT is likely a good option. Check the project website and/or forums and/or reddit for recent recommendations. That's what I did in the past.<p>Personally I've moved to OpnSense: Some run it natively on a refurbished low-power SFF hardware (6000 or 7000 series Intel should be fine, or some Ryzen), so even in countries with high electricity costs that's feasible these days.<p>More specifically, I run OpnSense in a qemu/libvirt VM (2C of a E5-2690v4) and do WiFi with a popular prosumer APs. Mind that VMs are likely to introduce latency, so if you try this route, make sure to PCIe-passthrough your network devices to the VM - I was prepared to ditch the VM for a dedicated SFF. | null | null | 41,796,643 | 41,793,658 | null | null | null | null |

Following "EAFP" without exception is also really bad.<p>The simple policy is that you should use "LBYL" when you're dealing with local state that can't change out from under you, especially when it's just properties of your local variables, but you need to use "EAFP" for anything that deals with remote state. Function calls can go either way, depending.<p>Blanket advice against LBYL leads people to use try/except blocks to express basic conditionals. If you want to ask something about your local variables, just ask it in a conditional --- don't make the reader infer "ah, these are the situations which will raise the error, and therefore we'll go into this block if the values are this way". If you want to do something when a key is missing from a dictionary, don't write:<p><pre><code> try:
value = table[key]
except KeyError:
return default_value
</code></pre>
Just write:<p><pre><code> if key not in table:
return default_value
value = table[key]
</code></pre>
(If you really need to avoid two lookups for efficiency, you would do something like value = table.get(key, MISSING_VALUE) and then check 'if value is missing_value'. But this optimisation will seldom be necessary.)<p>The example the author gives about interacting with the file system is a good example of where indeed you really should use EAFP. The file system is remote state that your function does not own. Similarly if you're doing database operations, calling a remote API...lots of things.<p>There's various middle ground when you're calling functions. Often you don't want to worry about whether that function is going to be interacting with remote state, and you want to treat it totally as a black box, so you just use EAFP. But if the function documents really clear pre-conditions of your variables you can just go ahead and check, it's better to do that. | null | null | 41,794,818 | 41,794,818 | null | [

41,797,453 | comment | DiogenesKynikos | 2024-10-10T10:36:06 | null | This is not at all true about the Chinese economy. The Chinese economy is tightly integrated into the world economy, and there are many ways to check their numbers. For every widget they export, there is a foreign importer. For everything they import, there is a foreign exporter. There are foreign companies that are heavily invested in most sectors of the Chinese economy.<p>The idea that China is a black box that no information comes out of is just horribly out of date. This isn't the Mao era of a sealed-off China. This is the era of international China.<p>The government itself does not like fake numbers, because they render economic policy ineffective. Beijing needs to know what is going on in the provinces. Generating fake numbers for public consumption and then a private set of real numbers would be a monumental undertaking that would be impossible to pull off over the long term for a country with as large and complex an economy as China's. Provinces have tried to fudge numbers in the past, and Beijing has punished them when it found out, because doing so goes against the interests of the central government. | null | null | 41,761,429 | 41,761,099 | null | null | null | null |

IMO it's a much better experience than Zod.<p>If the JSON object matches the data class exactly, the Zod parser and the Kotlin Serialization parser and Jackson and all those other JSON parsers are similar in complexity.<p>However, where Zod shines is if the JSON object <i>doesn't</i> match your domain class exactly, e.g. you want to parse a JSON number into a Date, or you want to parse a string field into some custom domain object. In those cases, in zod this is a one-liner with `.transform(...)`. Other libraries will require all kinds of weird workarounds to support this.<p>The other thing Zod does really well is composition, i.e. making new schemas out of existing schemas. Something like this is difficult to express in most language's parser frameworks:<p><pre><code> const User = z.object({id: z.string(), username: z.string(), ...})
const CreateUserPayload = User.omit({id: true}) // Same as user, but without the id field
const UpdateUserPayload = CreateUserPayload.partial() // Same as CreateUserPayload, but now all the fields are optional</code></pre> | null | null | 41,796,895 | 41,764,163 | null | null | null | null |

Lets begin with the main reasons, he was awarded the award for nuclear profileration agreements and a new american policy in the middle east. Lybia is not a nuclear power and its in north africa not the middle east.<p>secondly the military intervention of Lybia came at the behest of a UN security council resolution that put NATO in charge of securing the no fly zone to prevent Gadafi to bomb his own citizens after he had shot protestors during the arab spring. The NATO mission was led by France. The USA involvement ended the day the UN security council ended the mission despite the new Lybian goverment wanting them to remain. It is not Obama's fault that half the arab world exploded in protests in 2011, or that the UN voted to intervene, or that the French led mission was a bit of a clusterfuck. So no, Lybia does not affect any point I mentioned, or any of the reasons for the comittee to vote for him years earlier.<p>> it's actually not hard to have presidents not start wars at all- both presidents since Obama did just that.<p>Trump started a war, Iran just didnt follow through. Killing Soleimani is casus belli and Iran had every right to retaliate against america. The fact they didn't does not somehow exonarate Trump from his actions. That was way more belligerent than any action taken under Obama's 8 years.<p>Biden did not start any wars but 100% would have intervened if ISIS had begun under his presidency, the same way Obama did. Obama did not start any war against any country, he just had missions in countries america was already in, like Afghanistan, or contributed in international efforts like the Syrian civil war, or lybia intervention after Gadaffi's Un resolution.<p>His reputation as war mongering is artificial and designed by the same people who told Trump that if you dont test for Covid you get less cases. America started reporting less the drone strikes they carried, but carried them more often under Trump for example. Its the same sleight of hand that people use to say Sweden is worse off because they have more rape cases. They simply report them more often. Obama was more open than further admins on their interventions, that does not make it happen more or less often.<p>> it should do something about it?<p>They did not award it to Gandhi and gave it to Kissinger.
