Yeah. When I heard what they were doing with the library stuff. I thought that was such a weird hill to die on.

Like how could any lawyer tell them they had a chance in hell of breaking copyright law at scale, because of the pandemic?

And they didn’t create a new organization to do this very legally risky thing, they did it under their normal organization not some LLC. Crazy

Technically yes. There’s nothing special about the code running in the CPU. Long time ago there was an application that would switch from Windows to Linux without rebooting. But it was super unstable. You didn’t reinitialize all the memory… Some devices on the bus expect to get initialized one time, and can’t be reinitialized later after the system’s powered on, It’s asking for trouble

What you really want to do, is have multiple operating systems running on different cores at the same time. And this is an ideal use case for a hypervisor like Xen which is a microkernel. That will then dedicate a CPU to any operating system you want, so they’re running in parallel.

Then swapping between the operating systems is as simple as giving one control of the keyboard video and mouse.

This is as close as you can get to having two different computers running side by side.

That’s a good point, and that’s what a long-term CEO could fight for. But this executive before they became CEO was given a test, could they do this difficult executive thing, and they didn’t. If you’re the board of directors, is this the person you promote to CEO? They’re already giving you friction before they become the CEO

I’m not apologizing. I think this person would make a terrible CEO. For a variety of reasons. The biggest is the fact that they’re going around on a campaign besmirching the company they tried to become the CEO of. That’s an Elon musk move

That’s a really good point. That’s a good test of an executive, if they can’t do what the board needs… They aren’t a good fit either

I hate to say it, but when we’re talking about a leadership position, that hasn’t been filled yet, looking at somebody’s ability to be consistent leader is a factor.

If memory serves this executive was out for treatment, when the previous CEO stepped down in the replacement was chosen.

They simply were not available. It’s hard to be a part-time CEO

Right, and these people want to stand at their desk. So having a standing desk lets them exercise their desires

Does anything hurt? Are you having any issues?

Address those first.

I hate to nitpick, but saying you’re ready to hammer out the details, does not mean you accept the deal

I don’t believe Israel would have accepted any ceasefire at all, at most they’re open to a “pause”.

The real tragedy is that many people coming up to the end of their life do the pilgrimage as a matter of urgency. “Now or never”.

These are the most vulnerable people, who don’t have time flexibility to wait for better weather.

Why is the UK getting aid from the USA?

If only this military had the world’s largest amphibious logistic capability. If only the ships delivering to the Pier could also deliver to beaches.

All my family members who served in combat zones have zero appetite for wars, never hear them advocating for a new war, ever.

I wish more food service people wore masks!

If you take the pollution out of the sky and guarantee sick people actually do wear masks and that facial recognition cameras are dismantled, then I’ll stop

It would be nice if this were true, but typically if the population doesn’t have money to spend to buy things, advertising to them doesn’t return much money either

Oh yes, I see the same people! It’s like a friendly community!
