> Election fraud requires intent, because honest mistakes would have been caught during the recount process;

The accusation of election fraud requires intent because fraud requires intent. The successful performance of election fraud usually involves not conveying your intent to defraud because then people wouldn't trust your role in the election.

> There is absolutely no tracability on ballots, by design, at this stage.

Yes, this is why its suspicious that people staged ballots by removing their envelopes, then hid them under a table and waited until the (R) observers had left. So if its known and understood that no one is able to prove that those ballots had a legitimate chain of custody then how are they debunking the allegation that fraud occurred? It sounds like you're saying that the way the system is set up, its not possible to prove that the election was legitimate.

> Anyone who is dissatisfied with this election would be impossible to satisfy.

Right after you point out that it was designed in a way that would be impossible to verify, you say this.
FWIW, Firefox has become unpredictable in it's blocking of autoplay for me. It works for me almost all the time it seems, but every so often something will autoply anyway. I can't figure out the exceptions, and don't know why Firefox allows them. It seems fairly straightforward to me.

No it doesn't at all. You're just worried that people will think less of you. Which if you have abhorrent views, is fair enough right?
I'm sure the real reason is avoiding liability for not making any real effort to verify the documents.
There's an old 1900's illustration of UFOs,
saw it in a Ripley's Magazine way back in the late 90's - early 2000's.

They looked like stuff from that era:

Cigars, Hats, Zeppelins, etc.

While I am a bit sympathetic with this ruling, I think it's a net negative result for rule of law. There should be some terms under which you are interacting. The terms as listed are pretty easy to find. The link pretty clearly says that if you proceed you agree to the terms. They have a link to the terms. You don't have to proceed. It's not really that hidden or misleading. Adding a check box doesn't make it that much more likely for someone to read it, not enough to materially change the facts here. Every piece of software has terms and conditions, so seeking those out seems like a low bar.

If the standard is "well nobody reads those things anyway", then a lot of mortgages and credit card agreements could be invalid. Frankly most propositions on the ballot should be invalid, as those aren't even linked in any way to the ballot where you vote. This December's bill in the US congress that was like 5,000 pages long and they only had 2 hours until the vote to read it, that should be invalid.

If there was a plausible alternative agreement they might have agreed to, then I could understand the ruling. But as a matter of law, this seems like a bad call.
As someone who wrote a precursor to that code (I work on crosvm), any language other than C has to write binding code for KVM (or any kernel interface for that matter). Are you suggesting that the only language that should get to use KVM is C (and other languages that can consume C headers)?

Additionally, when KVM gets new features, the hard part will not be adding more bindings to that crate; it will be utilizing that feature, which would have to happen in any langauge.
I would not trust anybody to delete data I have given them. I personally also sometimes secretly harvest data ("maybe I could need them later?"), and I am not an enterprise working for profit.

Both. GP knows Chrome for Linux exists but ignores that its need for auto-update doesn't play well with distros package management and it also statically-links or ships 3rd party libs. Clearly supporting diverse (fragmented) linux ecosystem is not easy at all.

This is one of the many reasons I don't run analytics on my website (in addition to the more obvious ones, such as privacy). In my case, I still get useful "second-order" information from the frequency of people writing emails to me about the content, and it feels a lot nicer to read that someone found something I wrote useful than to try to micro-optimize for what people are willing to click on.
Are you being serious? This is a Tesla. You think people are going to repair them by welding steel sheet on top?
I found that once I owned a home, the utility for a truck doing "weekend warrior" tasks was great. Runs to the dump, transporting furniture, soil/mulch, firewood. Standard towing package for a boat or a rental trailer. Can also fit bikes, kayaks, skis, and camping equipment, no need for expensive roof rack accessories.

We use my wife's crossover for all of the family trips, so it's usually just me in the truck. Before I owned a home I enjoyed driving a nicer sedan but now I would now I prefer the utility of a mid-size truck.
I was in your situation about 8 years ago. I probably made all the mistakes one can make and hopefully this will help you. Here's a few tips:

- Eat well and exercise 5 days a week. You'll probably think you're too busy for this, but IT HAS TO COME FIRST. It will help you focus and be more productive for school and the startup.

- Have a social life. Entertainment fuels creativity and productivity.

- Don't work ridiculous hours. That was probably my biggest mistake. I thought I was Superman and that I could work 9-2/3am, 7 days a week. That's about ~125 hours a week (including school of course).

It worked out for a while, but I then became extremely tired. People told me I looked like a zombie. I obviously had no social life and had stopped exercising.

The problem with this lifestyle is that it is counter-productive. It works at first, but then you become so exhausted that the more you work, the less productive you are. And the less productive you get, the more frustrated you become and you feel the need to put in even more hours.

Don't get into this vicious circle. It'll kill you. Trust me on this, been there, done that. I burnt out. Don't let it happen to you because it will take you YEARS to recover.

I think the smart way to do it is to plan your weeks properly. Schedule time off to go to the gym, see friends, etc. Schedule work hours and have at least scheduled 1 day off every two weeks. Stick to your schedule. Don't let yourself work ridiculous hours or slack off. Balance is key. It should pay off in the long run.
Looks nice! Any chance of an Android version?
You're right. I meant to comment on the titular semicolon argument, where I fall strongly in the "statements should have consistent syntax" camp.
Who cares whether they're good for business?

If you only have one life to live, would you rather go through it being a good person and slightly less rich, or a complete annoying jerk and slightly more rich?
Significant discussion from an earlier submission of the same story, but from a different source:

In fact, this submission is pointing to an article that's simply quoting the story submitted here:

Mjolnir takes a very minimalist approach, you install the main app, then install luarocks and pull in all the plug-in modules with that. We wanted to ship as many modules as we could, with the app, so it would be more immediately useful out of the box.
(there are other changes Hammerspoon has made, but that is probably the largest)

I spent $400+ on an arcteryx backpack 20+ years ago. Last summer, I hiked the Cape Wrath "Trail" in the Scottish Highlands. It continues to be flawless.

I wrote to the company afterwards to thank them for a product that still works better than I could imagine, and in fact is better than any product they make today (at least for the purposes of a 17 day backcountry trip with almost no resupply).

Sadly, one of the reasons I bought the Arcteryx at the time was that they were still manufactured in north American (BC). This is no longer the case, and from my inspection of their current products, while they are still superb in comparison to the competition, they don't really do well in comparison to the late 90's versions.
Interesting, we have the "cheap" Markforged printer - $15k hah - which seems to be stupidly reliable (never had a failed print). Their drybox isn't heated at all by the way, so it's not clear how much it makes a difference, but then we're not in a particularly humid area (North England) and the lab has air con.
Such a strange wording. Sounds like you're saying "It's too simple, we need to make it more not-simple" while anyone would agree that simple is better than non-simple. What if it can be simple, useful and scalable? That's the ideal I think.

Google Keep -> Joplin (https://joplinapp.org/)

I tried a lot of note taking apps and liked this one for its simplicity (just markdown) and cross platform support. Then just store sync it all either via boxcryptor or nextcloud.

I'm a bit incredulous of this. Has wall street ever actually done that? Here in the UK the last Labour Party was super left wing, actively said they'd cut 90% of financial services. They didn't get their accounts closed or their cards cancelled.

Were Bernie Sanders or Elizabeth Warren forced to use bitcoin for their groceries?

The real pull Wall Street has is that its a profitable industry. It makes a shit tonne of money and you want it here because you want to tax it. Compare that to car makers, a low margin industry with big externalities that can't easily decamp to some other country.

Wallstreet (The City is the UK equivalent) is also a major strategic asset. Cutting Iran off from Western listed companies and dollar transactions is a much bigger issue for them than sanctioning their leaders or blowing up the occasional general. The same for Zimbabwe or China: revoked access to capital markets is a big issue. To be able to revoke access to those markets, you need to have those markets.
Back when Apple was a PowerPC platform I worked for a company that ported Linux to their devices (Yellow Dog Linux). It made sense because the PowerPC was a cheap RISC alternative so it was great for scientific applications that didn't want to pay out the nose for full-blown RISC hardware. At the time Apple saw this as putting an ugly, buggy OS on their awesome sexy hardware and it damaged their brand. Many people in Apple saw the benefit of selling more hardware but most weren't incredibly helpful because we were diluting their brand. We were allowed to do it, but Apple wasn't exactly psyched about it.

For anyone not good with faces the guy responding is Linus Torvalds who created and still manages Linux.
Maybe not single out China, but many people think China is particularly untrustworthy:

they insist Chinese law is used outside China, and lecture people how they should refer to China in public;
they operate concentration camps;
the Chinese language has no word for *mutuality*, China benefits from free speech and access to institutions in the West but doesn't allow the same in China for journalists or businessmen;
China treats Chinese-speaking minority in Western countries as Chinese citizens, and even blackmails them by threating their family;
Winnie the Pooh is extremely thin-skinned and can have games like Devotion removed from Steam and GOG even after the reference is removed from the secret area in the game;
there are many instances where businesses with Chinese shareholders were pressured not to publish anything mildly critical of China.
BBC team visiting China investigating covid19 faced obstacles reminiscent of The Truman Show;
WHO scientists investigating covid19 recently not permitted into China;
China doesn't even formally frown at corruption;
Journalists disappear or regularly get sentences in China;

Western liberal democracies have flaws, but I'll take Western values over Chinese values, thank you very much. Also, the West has less leverage over China than over Russia so it's important not to yield any ground.
"The British heard the haunting sound of Germans singing Ã¢â‚¬Å“Stille NachtÃ¢â‚¬Â (Ã¢â‚¬Å“Silent NightÃ¢â‚¬Â )"

I don't view this move as "centralizing" to Switzerland. They've left the US over concerns about the legal and regulatory environment there.

Switzerland is a reasonably neutral in the on-going trade and IP disputes, so it a good choice for now. If that changes, the RISC-V foundation could always move again and relocate to Iceland or Singapore or somewhere else.

As it becomes more and more common for teams and companies/foundations to be globally distributed, I think we'll see more of this movement, with talent flowing to the countries that have the most favorable environments.
People who haven’t used electric car with Autopilot just don’t realize how much easier and less fatiguing it is to drive. Especially at the end of the long trip the difference is very pronounced. The problem is that it’s hard to convey or demonstrate: you really need to try it for the few days do see for yourself. Single test-drive is not enough.
Yes, but it's also possible to go a lot slower than necessary. France converted their grid to 80% nuclear in 20 years and it seems to have worked out ok.
> as the cost of hiring domestic labor in developed countries go up, companies begin to off-shore labor as soon as they are able.

Productivity of labor is also much higher in developed countries. What matters is comparative advantage.

Even from a strictly economic point of view, it is often better for rich countries to off-shore a lot of low-level manufacturing. That decreases prices for manufactured goods in rich countries and frees labor for more productive jobs. If you somehow force companies to bring back manufacturing jobs to the US, two things will have to happen:

1. Prices will increase for consumers.

2. People will be transferred from their current jobs to the new manufacturing jobs. You may actually be transferring people from more useful, productive labor into less productive labor, leaving the entire society worse off.
I personally use it to simplify and synchronize encryption logic between client side and server side; makes things a breeze especially if you don’t want to mess with Javascript’s crypto APIs.
Pretty interesting anyway; thanks!

>some speech shouldn't be tolerated

I agree that some speech shouldn't be tolerated. But it cannot be Zuckerberg, or Trump, or Biden, or you, or me, who unilaterally decides what speech is fine, and what speech is banned.
We've had a full two months for election irregularities to be litigated in the courts, and scrutinized in the court of public opinion. The only results that bubbled to the top were the same oft-repeated grand claims, without much of anything backing them up. If there were substantive arguments to be made, Trump's legal team has failed to present them. At this point two months later, the "fraud" narrative is nothing more than a rallying cry. So yes, continuing to push the fake fraud claim is direct incitement of that mob.
Thanks! Still very beta though
Works for my friends me, though I didn't out URL (.org) in the status.
it's not that Fox News became "moderate" , they became just another left-wing propaganda hub like CNN and WaPo , except for very few commentators like Tucker and Ingraham.

Their elections coverage was a disaster as well. I think they are in identity crisis of sorts.
I'd add a "sign in with Google" to this. The thought of creating an account for this is a barrier for me.
I think MS's reaction will be interesting. When linux netbooks came out, they aggressively discounted Windows for them, fending off the linux threat from below.

MS/intel already have some incredibly cheap tablets (and Windows 8.1 reportedly runs well on them). Seems logical that MS will discount again.
All they have to lose is everything.
How is it leading me anywhere? If anything, it's probably my belief in the obsolescence of privacy that makes it easier for me to appreciate what the NSA is capable of, rather than the other way around.
You can pipe into lnav like you can with less/more:

make |& lnav

The '-t' option will prepend timestamps to the lines that are coming in on stdin so that it will be treated as a log file. The '-w <file>' option will write the stdin data to a file if you want to look at it later:

make |& lnav -t -w /tmp/make.out

Is that what you're asking about?
maybe i could have shoehorned it into a KV store and done range queries, but again this was stuff like "timestamp, srcip, srccc, srcasn, eventid". the main vector is a timestamp, and every query has a timestamp range associated with it. these are written once, never updated. other data stores don't optimize for those parameters.
I live here in Turkey and the power outage was a real pain more than anything else. My family that lives outside the country was more worried about me than people in the country were.
I completely and obviously violated their SDK terms of service and for that they sent me a few T-shirts and other Pebble swag.
Put this in my "watch later" queue. I'm very interested in a Lisp whose type system is on par with that of Haskell/Ocaml.

Did you read her conclusion? It's not all that serious, just a cute bit of fun. Nothing wrong with that. Besides, everything is data already; regular boring introspection is just "data mining" with terrible sample sizes because of memory, and bad statistics because of biases. ;)
But that doesn't negate the value in seeing which side of the debate was most widely agreed upon at the time.

Edit: of course, this argument would be satisfied by no more than making comment scores visible on discussions older than n days.
I haven't read through all of your notes, but did click on a few links. I've studied a bit of nutritional medicine along the way. Have you looked at any research or anecdotes on anti-inflammatory supplements for RSI?

Any irritated condition is characterised by inflammation. The most common medicines prescribed for RSI are anti-inflammatories. So it stands to reason that RSI is tissue-damage, caused by repetitive strain, and anywhere tissue damage is occurring immune mediated inflammation takes place.

Tenosynovitis is inflammation of the fluid-filled sheath that surrounds a tendon.[1]

So, the treatment we were taught was to address the physical injury by removing, retraining, or engineering the problem away, then give nutritional supplements that support tissue repair and help down-modulate the inflammatory response: Omega 3 EPA / DHA (fish oils), Quercetin, Rutin, Vitamin C, Bromelain, B12 & Folate, Magnesium (as citrate or diglycinate, or both), plus Turmeric and Ginger. And also give supplements that target musculoskeletal / connective tissues: Silica, proline, lysine, cysteine, glutamine, Manganese, B5, B6, Iron (as iron amino acid chelate), copper, zinc (as amino acid chelate). Where the condition has progressed to considerable over-all wear and tear of a join the also throw in Glucosamine and Chondroitin.

The theory goes: remove the mechanical cause of the condition (repetitive strain causing tissue damage) and the condition will resolve itself. Put in the nutrients the body needs to repair the damage and the condition will improve faster. Sometimes the damage is so far progressed it will respond much better if the nutrients are taken too.

Once the condition is under control we then direct the patient to look in to seeking advice to strengthen the affected joint.

I don't know about the state of nutritional medicine outside of Australia, but here we have some really good formulations available off the shelf and others as practitioner only formulas - so you need a consult.

I'll pre-empt the "supplements don't work" argument and say: yes, taking iron oxide or magnesium oxide doesn't do anything. There are formulations that are poorly absorb and poorly utilised by the body. Have a look in to, for example, magnesium diglycinate and magnesium citrate vs. magnesium oxide. Look in to mixed ascorbates with citrus bioflavanoids (Quercetin and Rutin) vs. pure Ascorbic Acid. High does Turmeric and Ginger work so well as anti-inflammatories and blood thinners they are contra-indicated if a person is taking blood thinners / blood pressure medication, eg Warfarin.

Anyway, getting carried away. Thought you might be interested.

Very much agree - especially on prohibition.
> The worst part about the DNT header was the requirement for the tracking companies to regulate themselves. Initially, the header was opt-in, but with the introduction of IE10, Microsoft decided that the option was going to be opt-out.

Call me a conspiracy theorist, but being a former CTO of an adserving company, I feel qualified to at least voice my opinion: this was a brilliant move by Microsoft. The DNT header as it were, was a perfect middle-ground for advertising companies: people that cared enough were able to opt-out, and people that did not care would still be able to be tracked.

Google had the most to lose. I feel Microsoft made this decision in order to (accelerate the) kill of the DNT header, and thus hoping on more severe legislation.
