r_schestowitz | That seems like a plausible explanation in theory, but I doubt that's what happens. I sometimes monitor space and recently it barely exceeded 80% in /tmp | Oct 03 05:21 |
r_schestowitz | Also, we have a similar issue in TR, where /tmp has its own partition and when it runs out (happened before) that just means I struggle to upload new files until apache is restarted or /tmp cleared manually. | Oct 03 05:21 |

r_schestowitz | i agree that free hardware is increasingly important. its also difficult to keep track of, because there are basically zero examples of “free hardware” in the sense of every aspect of the design is non-proprietary. so there are lots of different aspects to measure the freedom of, and few if any places that work to consolidate that. | Oct 03 05:21 |

r_schestowitz | Wow. Just like all of our ancestors had! | Oct 03 05:35 |
r_schestowitz | when the copyright act of 1976 (which was based on international copyright agreements) turned copyright upside down, ONE of the effects was that software freedom (like so many other public domain freedoms) was turned upside down. that change in copyright was like a hurricane that spawns tornadoes (hurricans often spawn tornadoes, ive been in at least one that did. the hurricane is sometimes powerful enough to keep those tornadoes from | Oct 03 05:35 |

r_schestowitz | the fsf does too much ignoring of the root of the problem while focusing on a symptom. I REALLY HAVE TO stress that i do think its alright to focus on this symptom, for free software to focus on free software. | Oct 03 05:35 |
r_schestowitz | but it cannot IGNORE the cause, PARTICULARLY as that cause continues to get more and more dangerous and threatening. | Oct 03 05:35 |
r_schestowitz | why? because continuing increases in bad copyright create continuing increases in direct threats to free software. | Oct 03 05:35 |
r_schestowitz | at some point, you have to fight the cause. and free culture is the most prominent ally in that. it spends far more time paying attention to that cause than free software does. | Oct 03 05:35 |
r_schestowitz | free software advocates ignore this at their peril. the failure of free software to join open source is not a problem-- open source exists to undermine free software. | Oct 03 05:35 |
r_schestowitz | free culture exists to address the cause of non-free software. it may not focus enough on software freedom (it doesnt, the chapter we are talking about even says so!) but thats why its good for fsf to focus on software freedom. | Oct 03 05:35 |
r_schestowitz | it just cant ignore the larger problem. it cant afford to-- it will fail if it does so. | Oct 03 05:35 |

r_schestowitz | why there aren’t more language-to-language translators for programming languages? | Oct 03 05:39 |
r_schestowitz | in the 80s and 90s, the typical amount of resources available meant that serious efforts were focused on more conservative applications of translation-- direct compiling to something the cpu can understand or bytecode interpreters. then the trend was towards online applications. | Oct 03 05:39 |
r_schestowitz | now (from early 2000s onwards) you find more programming languages that have another high-level language as the output; a few even have multiple high-level language choices for output. | Oct 03 05:39 |
r_schestowitz | you have to ask yourself what the practical accomplishment is of such translation-- because that really depends on the input and output language. either way, its a fairly new thing in terms of people actually taking the time (and having a good reason) to create such tools. | Oct 03 05:39 |
r_schestowitz | we all know that different languages lend themselves best to different tasks. to some degree a program is sometimes actually more useful in the language its written in, even if you hypothetically could translate it to any other language. for what its worth, i think we will have more examples and more applications as time goes on. | Oct 03 05:39 |
r_schestowitz | ive actually watched this as a trend in hobbyist coding (which i believe reflects a reasonable cross section of broader or more professional examples) for 15 years. | Oct 03 05:39 |
r_schestowitz | just a decade ago, compiling to a high level language was still probably looked down on as amatuerish and sloppy. weve come a long way in 10 years, but 10 years really isnt long enough for people to produce more examples than you are aware of, whether or not youve missed a few of them. and to some degree, there have to be applications-- just as natural language is higher quality when done by experienced people than machines, source-to- | Oct 03 05:39 |
r_schestowitz | source compilation produces an inferior program source than if done by a skilled human. future advances in automation and machine learning may change the nature of compiling-- we are probably a ways off from that. | Oct 03 05:39 |

r_schestowitz | Yes, the domain could be any domain and be chained to the original one (I am guessing you might be warning to hide which domain you connect to, for personal safety?), but if it's not a subdomain of the original, then CloudFlare might make life tougher. The idea is that you add both to a CloudFlare account and then tell CloudFlare to treat these differently. One is either hidden or access-restricted. | Oct 03 06:04 |

r_schestowitz | In terms of security, that's another aspect. You could, for instance, limit access to the login page (so that only admin domain allows logging in).
