Late 90s was 350nm down to 180nm (Known as 0.35um and 0.18um respectively). Things were still pretty honest around then.

2010s is probably where most of the shenanigans started.

The reason we went multicore was because the frequencies weren’t scaling, but the number of transistors were. We’ve been around the 2-300ps clock cycle for a long time now.

It makes the apprenticeship an “unskilled” hire, but afterwards they’d be a “skilled” hire for any carpentry job.

The term just means “Is there some required experience for this job on day 1?” not “Does this job require skill to do it well” because that’s true of all jobs.

Fun game, but I’m not sure with this one. I’m leaning “Tankie” but the use of “Triggering” threw me.

If you have tabs like that, they’re not “open”. They are crumbs left as you wandered the internet. You’re not going back to them. Do yourself a favour and close them.

It’s like having thousands of unread emails in your inbox. At some point you have to stop kidding yourself you’re going to read them.

Fair play. Not many would do that.

There are far-right groups actively recruiting, and they’re worried that they are mysoginistic? Is that really top of the list of major concerns here?

Maybe the incitement of violence should be a more pressing concern, or the general fascism.

I think what is important about Animal Farm is that it’s simple and direct enough to allow discussion of the political system of all out communism. The discussion is what’s important.

Wouldn’t surprise me if that’s lost when it’s placed on a school curriculum though.

Why did you read it a second time?

Since ads began, there have been ad-blockers. You just didn’t know about them.

What do you mean “work”? What is it that needs to move?

You just fire up Firefox and start using it. It’ll even scrape your chrome setup to move bookmarks and stuff over.

It’s not an OS. It’s an application.

They’re supplying munitions to Russia.

I’ll prefice this by saying that I’m speaking about people, in Britain, who have a general common knowledge of WW2. There is a group that knows nothing. Even which countries were involved.

I would say that the Munich agreement is known about, but not by name. It’s the defining moment of Neville Chamberlain’s prime-ministership, He is remembered as a fool and a coward because of it. The man who tried to make a naive deal with evil. If you say “I hold in my hand a piece of paper…” there’s a good chance people will know the reference.

Molotov-Ribbentropp isn’t well remembered. It’s known that the Soviets fought against Germany in the end, but not how things began. I remember learning about the battles of the eastern front in high school history, but if I ever learnt about this pact I never remembered it. Maybe that there was a non-agression agreement which Germany broke leading to Operation Barbarossa, but nothing more.

The Bengal Famine is becoming more well known recently. It comes out when Churchill is discussed. Due to his role as WW2 leader he’s held in very high esteem by a lot of people. The Bengal famine is brought up to highlight the man’s darker, utilitarian and some would say sociopathic aspects in order to achieve war goals. I think this ignores all the events leading up to the situation though and the wider causes. Those are not discussed.

Hope that gives some perspective.

I was watching a Carrion Crow hop around just yesterday. Fast movement was a hop. Slow movement was a walk.

No. “Skilled labour” means that you’re hiring someone because of a skill or training they already have.

A carpenter is skilled labour because you expect a carpenter to already be able to work with wood. Your not going to train them from scratch on the job. They’ll already have served as an apprentice or been trained in some other way.

A fork lift driver would need to have a license before you hired them. Skilled labour.

Somebody packing boxes or flipping burger is “unskilled labour”. On day 1 you’ll be taught the job. There will be no prerequisite skills needed. It doesn’t mean “there’s no skill in this job”, just that “there is no requirement to have a skill to apply this job”.

I took it as the total reverse.

That he “doing skilled labor” packing boxes at Amazon is above somebody “flipping burgers” at McDonald’s.

Very different solutions.

• DuckDNS: you expose your HA to the internet like a public website and register it’s address with DuckDNS so you can look it up.
• Wireguard: you VPN to inside your firewall and can access anything on your private network.

Wireguard all the way. Exposing just a VPN endpoint that can’t be connected to without the right cryptographic keys is a much more secure and maintainable attack surface.

BTW I assume that’s what you meant by “DuckDNS”. Using that service is orthogonal to making HA visible externally, but is (I think) the common pairing.

This is what a lack of competition looks like.

However… Twice the price of 4nm? The gains are fairly marginal from what I gather. I don’t think many will bother.

I think carbon landfill is a great term for it.

…because most don’t study the rise and causes of what happened. They only study the result. “Never again” refers to the holocaust, but nobody puts that sign on the the road that led to it.

• Wealth disparity and inflation
• Fear of “others” taking what little people have
• Traumatized populations from decades of war

With populations scared and desperate, they’ll latch on to any demigogue that appears.
