Well, "marrying a dog" or "fucking a dog" for that matter, hasn't been part of human society of all kinds for millennia. Prostitution has.

Nor is marrying a dog the exact same act as an otherwise totally acceptable act, but done for money (as is prostitution vs regular sex).

Railing against "the state" or "our corporate overlords" is not a mature political position, but merely unfocussed, reflection-free rage that gets tooled / channeled by political organisers and activists on the left and right, not to mention commercially exploited by the Facebooks of this world, whence Zuckerberg's "Dumb Fucks".

Jupyter has an enormous amount of funding (over 10 million at this point, I think) from Moore, Sloane, Bloomberge, Continuum Analytics, etc. It's far from mostly vounteer work. It's a great contribution by foundations and companies to humanity that's been an enormous amount of hard work.

Like many abstractions, that concept of a fungible, anonymous, history-less, and wholly judgement-free "value" is just a useful fantasy.

Poor answers to performance problems like this is the number one reason why Firefox lost so much market share to Chrome. Until Mozilla and friends pay attention to user pain, no amount of "creating a new profile" will improve the situation.

Hell, you can search the entirety of the public internet in a fraction of a second, but a few hundred thousand emails locks up your machine for the better part of a minute? Maybe the Rust folks working on parallelism can spend a few sprints giving TB some love.
I should preface that some trans people find the discussion itself deeply offensive and unwelcoming, so it's a very sensitive subject, but I'll try to sum it up respectfully...

The basic question is whether something like whether "visible performance of femininity and recognition as women" is fundamentally what differentiates men and women.

Some radical feminists would say that requiring women to behave in a way that they are recognizable "as women" is a primary mechanism for domination of women. These women want to consider themselves to BE women, while they do things which make them unrecognizable "as women" according to norms.

Many (not all) trans women seek to do somewhat the opposite... they WANT to be recognized "as women". And they will hold up both their desire to perform femininity and their experiences while being recognized "as women" as a thing which makes them women.

I think fundamentally both groups are correct. Trans women are correct that in practice recognition and performance constitute gender and even sex in a very literal way.

But the radical feminists are correct that gender recognition and performance is only one aspect of womanhood, and for some women's groups, it's not central at all.

MichFest is the historical event where I think all of this came to a head. Many women rightly valued MichFest for being a place where they were not recognized "as women" and no one expected anyone to perform femininity.

Trans women rightly felt that the rule excluding them from MichFest was anti-woman, that performance and recognition aside, trans women are women because they "be women" all year, not because of femininty or genitals or anything other than their own discrete self concept.

Personally, I suspect there is some sort of Hegelian dialectic here, and there is no resolution possible, only an infinite regress.

Not if you change the security definition.

Which they will. All they are asking for is some form of key escrow; which can (and has) been given a reasonable security definition.

The problem is that secure implementations of key escrow are much harder; and (given the amount of use the escrowed key will get), certainly going to be broken in practice.
There is a big demand for programmers, so raising the bar doesn't make sense.

Seems like this was the Mexican's mistake: "In the hopes that an influx of settlers could control the Indian raids, the bankrupt Mexican government liberalized immigration policies for the region. Finally able to settle legally in Texas, Anglos from the United States soon vastly outnumbered the Tejanos. Most of the immigrants came from the southern United States. Many were slave owners, and most brought with them significant prejudices against other races, attitudes often applied to the Tejanos. Mexico's official religion was Roman Catholicism, yet the majority of the immigrants were Protestants who distrusted Catholics"
That's roughly the line of their job, as we have all learned the hard way a few years back.

I understand this line of reasoning from a butt-hurt nerd perspective, but surely we can agree that it's a good thing that the consequences of 'all this' is finally hitting the mainstream?

And if so, what is the value of such an attitude other than some kind of petty 'told you so' need? Do we demand badges for our wokeness?
Good point, I guess the article says basically because they were clean, acted nicely, paid their bill and got groceries via lyft/uber and got out into an rv, they were middle class. Middle class should not conflate with reasonable human being who functions in society should it? That is incredible classist, anti blue color and anti poor people. You could be living on welfare and behave that way of course.

Now that you raised my awareness, I think the article conflates 'middle class' with normal behavior in a developed country, and that feels offensive to me, because it seems to suggest that some poor people are not like that.
>>I think the fact that steadily increasing tax rates over the decades before 1974 also coincided with high economic growth is a good point against libertarianism.

I think one could reasonably attribute the growth for the first decade or two after tax rates began increasing to the momentum built up during the previously laissez faire era.

Supply chains, investor sentiment, etc all take time to change so a tax hike might not make its effect on GDP immediately evident.

Also, many investments have a time delayed effect on GDP, like large capital projects which can take a decade to complete. Investments in the lower tax era could have only begun outputting goods well into the new high tax era, giving the false impression that the high tax era was responsible. Think a factory that takes a decade to come online for example.

I think speed and camera should be more intuitive. Speed doesn't actually make much sense, it could be divided into classes like social media, gaming etc. And what about phones not rated by Dxomark (assuming you have used their scores). Also, do you have your own rating framework for ease-of-use?
>Romania in 1800 was comparatively poorer than Sweden in 1800, but richer than Asgard® in 1800. So, Romania was still poor, but not as poor as other places.

this is exactly /my/ point: which countries were poorer than romania. if there were any then you're talking about basically indigenous peoples that still lived pre-agriculture

another commenter makes the point that serfdom had been eliminated by 200 years ago. fine. peasants. most of eastern europe were peasants (hence of course peasants revolts of the 19th century culminating in the bolshevik revolution). i think it very hard to get much poorer than pre-industrial revolution peasant farmers.
None, intrinsically.

But, receiving, storing, and/or processing personal data without consent is, in most situations, likely to be against the the Privacy and Electronic Communication Regulations and the Data Protection Act. Additionally, information about political affiliation.

The key point in this case is that CA didn't have consent. CA don't dispute this, but say that they believed at the time that they did. It is a defence to show that you "exercised all due diligence" in complying.

ICO will be looking for not only evidence of the actual use of personal data, but also evidence regarding whether and to what extent CA were knowingly or recklessly non-compliant.
One tool that I would like (and is probably) out there is tool that would easily let me compare and merge directories. I think this goes beyond Beyond Compare. But here's my use case:

I have videos, images of our children in various places (my phone, one drive, dropbox, maybe usb sticks) that I want to go into the target directory (probably one drive). the tool would go through all the other directories, checksum them against all the other directories, and then present them as "these are the files that should be merge into your target directory".

Can regular diffing tools do something like that in an easy manner?
Google search in general has become less effective, so perhaps it simply carried over.

No one wants to discuss this since it paints a picture of the ultimate downside potential of the tech industry and related disciplines. Being a practitioner of ‘magic’ (e.g. ML, NLP, complex software solutions more generally) is certainly the new sexy, but when we shunt the negative externalities of our fancy new black/grey boxes onto others without the willingness or ability to justify a system’s behavior, the blowback from this kind of negligence is most definitely going to be un-sexy (and well-earned).

In another context, we might label this kind of unsupported decision-making a kangaroo court.

Same here. If Google or FB are the only ways to sign up I'll pass.

It bothers me (in a philosophical way) that everything is being tied back to the 2 or 3 biggest walled garden providers, further centralizing control.

I wish there was like an open standard that apps could implement, and the users could choose to log in with any provider that implemented the standard (maybe this exists already?). I'd go for that.
I get that Google essentially walked back from an at least implied role as an information archivist. But I still don't really get why they so completely abandoned things like Google Groups given the truly minuscule resources to maintain them at some low level.
To your last point, America is also so large and diverse it's going to be hard to come up with too many sweeping conclusions from data like this. There's always going to be a few success stories about individualism but that doesn't help the median person who is just making ends meet, barely, and the homelessness issue that is worse in America than probably anywhere on earth especially given our cumulative wealth. The UN does have a happiness measure for what it's worth, it's probably better for smaller more homogenous countries. It interesting to compare what the UN study measures versus the American only one here. https://www.theguardian.com/world/2018/mar/14/finland-happie...

I still contend that time is one of the most difficult thing to program for/around. Once, I was building a billing system for a company, & they spent WEEKS trying to decide how they wanted the system to handle a recurring monthly bill for someone whose subscription began on the 31st of the month! They didn't like my suggestions, but their solutions always had edge cases that wouldn't work at some point in the year. It's been long ago, so I don't remember their final solution. In other projects, calendars and scheduling are a complete nightmare!

You seem to have missed this paragraph:

> When Backpage lost some of the court cases they put in filters so the advertisers couldn't be quite so blatant. But Backpage also told the advertisers how to evade those filters. "Use words like 'Amber Alert'" they said.

This directly addresses your argument: backpage changed to make the child prostitution less obvious.
> Railing against "the state" or "our corporate overlords" is not a mature political position

Why not? Historically anarchists played a mentionable role in this whole leftist thing.

EDIT: Also, could you elaborate on what you mean with 'a mature position'? I've found that kind of statement to be an effective but dishonest way to dismiss things.

I think parents, relatives and friends of the former still act as mentors, but it just isn't very likely every family has that support network. Unfortunately (or fortunately) I do think we need to train people to get places on time and be a cog, there has always been and will be societal pressure to be a cog that fits with others. I think once automation gets to the point it can replace teachers (having at least the same quality) we're going to see what humans can truly achieve given the best education possible.

I have always questioned claims that “learning should be fun” for many reasons, but I think it would be a fallacy to think learning cannot be fun. The exception I experience regularly involves curiosity. When I am curious about something, learning it is usually fun. But, this is a fairly personal process. I’m not sure it can be inherently encouraged through teaching methods. The Socratic method seems to reflect this notion but is more a useful tool for guidance than for exciting curiosity.

I still remind myself regularly that learning without the push of curiosity is necessary, and a path to that next burst of curiosity.

Real analysis was my first proofs-based math class and it really felt like being thrown into the deep end with no clue what was going on half the time.

I did quite like Bartle's "Introduction to Real Analysis" and "Elements of Real Analysis" books, kind of surprised that nobody else has brought them up. I think they strike an excellent balance between rigor and actually being comprehensible and approachable to people that aren't already familiar with proofs.
My first question off the bat is why didn't they at least explain why they didn't just try using the same type of data that the UN nation study did - the UN study shows the same marked decline in America over time.

Is COBOL a failure? Is FORTRAN a failure? How can anyone say a language that's used for so long can be a failure?

Is it the latest and coolest language? No. It can't be - it was already solving real problems since well before the people who wrote the latest and greatest languages were born.
Yes it's more verbose, but avoids adding new primitive to the language for something that is probably not too common. I'm also not a fan of tuples because the fields aren't named. I mean, which field in a return type of [int, int] do I want exactly?

At least anonymous structs would name the fields and so the type serves also as documentation.
It's great to see some Usenet archives out there to partly make up for the disappointment of Google Groups. But I'm sad that this archive seems to be incomplete, even within its stated date range. Back in the day, I was active on rec.arts.books.tolkien and alt.fan.tolkien: in this archive, I can't find any trace of the massive "alt." hierarchy at all, and the list of files for the "rec." hierarchy doesn't include the Tolkien group. For that matter, the list includes rec.humor.funny and rec.humor.d and others, but apparently not rec.humor itself. (It really does make you appreciate just how substantial the effort of collecting a comprehensive Usenet archive would be.)

On another note, not that anyone here would be able to fix it, but this list would be a lot easier to search through if the item names didn't all begin with "Usenet newsgroups within", so you could jump to first letters in a meaningful way.
I use rsync for something similar to this; it might help you too. I use ‘-P’ which makes the destination be like the source (so you never accidentally delete files in the source) and --dry-run will list what changes would be made without actually changing anything, effectively givingg you a directory diff. I’m sure there’s a flag you could use to say “I only want to create new files in dest if they’re not in source, but not delete or change anything” but I don’t know what it is off the top of my head.
Is it odd that I assumed they meant Sols from the start? The headline seemed clear to me.
