I notice that many of the tools (at least in the repos linked) seem to have stopped development since a couple of years.
As some of these are wrappers for tools or use APIs that could mean that they do not work any more, or without special configuration. Or that things are stable, and the tools are "done".
What I have mainly have been looking for in the free software ecosystem is a good tool to work with PDF tagging/structure/element attributes.
At work I really have only been able to do the work I need on random PDFs with Adobe Acrobat. It seems strange that this is the case as PDF is now an open standard.
It would be interesting to see this using median income or similar meassure rather than GDP per capita. Inequality by itself doesn't have to be a problem (depending on economic ideology) but if all purchasing power is restricted to a few ultra rich that should be relevant to the discussion of whether a country is rich.
This. And also adjusted on what you get for your tax money. (Say, median income after taxes, health care, student loans and pension savings.) And adjusted for the amount of holidays you have.
All this data is available on the interwebz. I'm a Norwegian, but has worked in several countries around the world, among them the US.
According to this site,[0] the median income in US and Norway was $24K-ish in 2021 (2019 numbers for Norway), while this Wikipedia article[1] lists countries based on average annual working hours (OECD, 2022).
Based on this, we can deduce that:
* Americans are paid $13.3/hour
* Norwegians are paid $16.9/hour
It's worth noting that even though Norway doesn't have a "general" minimum wage, except for some jobs, it's considered to be $21/hour.
That's true, but that's not quite the same as eg: single household median income vs median of all household incomes.
Let's say 90% of men in the US and Norway worked full-time and 80% of women in Norway and 60% in the US worked full-time (or vice-versa) - the various subsets of medians (individual vs families) might not be sensible to compare.
My understanding of this is that he managed to hype the language with certain killer features. A lot of people were enthusiastic and invested alot of time in learning and building in it. Evan than "suddenly" said they wanted to take the language in another direction and dropped some of the core features and pricipals that drew people in. While perhaps a mischaracterization, it comes a cross as a kind of "bait and switch" or at least undependable.
Ok, I'm not excluding the possibility of a lab leak, but I would expect it to be just badly handled regular microbiological/pathological research rather than genetic engineering.
Are we talking a Windows environment? I'm sure there are commercial solutions, but I think sandboxie could achieve something similar (don't know how secure it is considered).
If you can chose your system QubesOS may be interesting. It would be interesting if Qubes developed the capability to have non local VMs transparently (they wouldn't necessarily need to be virtualized).
A function that doesn't allocate doesn't mean it's safe. (Indeed if anything the opposite is more likely - copying is safe, if slow, writing to something that was passed in tends to be what breaks).
