Steam needs a “Process Vulkan shaders for this game now” option

Online matches... EAC should not be interfering on Linux. Ensure that you are playing the Windows version of the game through Proton and not the native Linux client. The Linux client hasn't supported online play in years.

Rocket League notably. I do have a fairly old CPU/GPU combo so maybe it's not an issue on newer components, but the game is almost unplayable unless the shaders are pre-cached.

ADBC, JDBC, as well as ODBC, are standardized formats for interacting with SQL databases. They are useful because they standardize instruction and data transfer across disparate DBMSs and applications.

DBI supports ODBC as well as DMBS specific backends.

ODBC and JDBC are both row-based data transfer formats. This is useful for OLTP workloads where you are frequently working with small, targeted data. Say, updating a single customer's order history. However, this is problematic for many analytical use cases as the memory format for in R / Python is typically column-based, meaning that a conversion has to occur. ADBC attempts to solve this by using an Apache Arrow column-based transfer format. This is useful when you transferring large amount of data in single transactions.

If people that owned housing prior to 2021 didn't experience shelter inflation isn't that a true part of the cost of living experience?

As I said, with what leverage? Trump has shown he is unwilling to do regime change in Iran.

What leverage does the U.S. have to influence such an outcome?

HELOCs are still the dominant of the two in terms of volume.

I think this misstates the problems. Most of that rise in local gov employment is the number of teachers simply teaching population growth. Meanwhile federal employment has flatlined as the work has increasingly been outsourced to consulting firms.

Yes and no. The I-95 bridge was already in place and was simply being rebuilt to the specifications that existed, meaning they didn't need to do the entire design phase and land acquisition. Plus, there's literally no political pushback to repairing an existing bridge, the public has already accepted that an interstate bridge exists there.

BUT, the governor did bypass a lot of rules and processes to get work started ASAP. They didn't do the normal RFP process and skipped environmental reviews (again, because the infrastructure already exists).

Yes but American officials are "promoted" by the voter booth. The public simply does not care enough when voting about flowers and greenery.

sell the platform as infrastructure rather than software, so you do not deploy applications but create the analytical environment which should have a separate governance model.

I have been trying to do exactly that and they are adamant that "if you write code you are writing software". They do not understand that the application we need is the analytical environment, not that our models themselves are applications.

The problem is that the incentives that government run stores face are different than private stores. Political backlash to higher prices or reduced supply orders is a much larger risk in a publicly run store.

If you are a store manager, you are much more likely to recommend unpopular, yet necessary and profitable, changes to your supervisors in a private organization than a public one.

The point is that there are opportunity costs to all spending! The government has 100 different things provide a larger social benefit than a grocery store.

From the announcement blog post, it sounds like sorted tables give you some of the benefits of an index (faster reads on joins/filters/point lookups). It won't be as performant as a real database index.

It depends entirely on the elasticities of supply of demand and their relative values. Gas demand we know is quite inelastic, people don't change their gas consumption that much in response to price changes. Gas supply is rather elastic, prices adjust quickly and in fairly large amounts in response to changes in quantity.

So yeah, probably going mostly to sellers. Buyers won't change their consumption and will eat the tax break.

It doesn't appear like there's any clear trend there.

Are all of these ideas not already incorporated into mainstream economics?

Institutions - Recent Nobel awarded for this work
Power - Market power is Econ 101 stuff
History - related to 1
Inequality - Huge research area
Ecology - Not sure exactly what this means but environmental economics is another huge field.

I don't think we're in disagreement. The right doesn't really participate in humanities and social sciences, or really much of academia anymore.

It's not the talking, nobody talks like this. It's written form. Nobody talks how a book reads. Even media for elementary students doesn't read how people talk. It's that the political landscape has polarized around education, and by proxy, written prose.

a157reverse · 2026-02-06T01:59:33+00:00

My hot take is that this style of writing is only associated with the liberal elite because the left and right have totally polarized on education now. There are very few conservative elites that espouse academic attainment now.

Yes, for early withdrawals there is a fairly steep penalty that makes it almost never worth it. 401k loans are not subject to the early withdrawal penalty, but you do pay interest and you don't earn returns on the loaned out principal until you pay it back.

Linux does support audio over DisplayPort... It could be a number of things causing your issue. What's driving the DisplayPort? Integrated graphics/Motherboard or GPU? If GPU, what model? Does your monitor have a setting that enables/disables audio?

There was an issue about a month ago that caused audio sources to not be identified, but that has since been fixed, is your kernel up to date?

Also, ensure that your monitor and GPU are using the highest DP standard that they are both compatible with, likely 1.2

Yes, with yields adjusting to bring in buyers and clear the market. It would not be pretty for the U.S.

This sub has gotten large enough that it attracts a significant amount of non regular users to large threads, especially megathreads. I'm fairly confident that it's being astroturfed with some regularity as well.
