Quick note for anyone reading this about magnesium glycinate: this form of magnesium contains an amino acid called glycine, and we have evidence that glycine can improve sleep quality. According to examine.com, the evidence is "very high" that:

>In persons undergoing mild sleep deprivation, 3g of glycine an hour prior to sleep is able to increase sleep quality and improve self-reports of fatigue and well being the next day due to better sleep.

I take approx. 10g of gelatin a day which also contains glycine, and I also notice improvements in my sleep.

Maybe because it's ignored so routinely?

I'm fully aware of the tradeoffs in making hard choices, the sacrifices made for progress.

Any person who is unable (or unwilling) to do an honest accounting (pros vs cons, ROI) is unqualified to participate in any decision making process, especially on behalf of the rest of us.

Engineering and product design comes down to balancing needs, constraints. These shouldn't be foreign concepts for us geeks. And yet...

Attacks only get better over time. In a sense, there are security flaws in every computer program, which only get clearer with time. The issue here is that these flaws are in a CPU, which is a component that's very difficult to change, so the existence of security flaws (that will only become clearer over time) seems worse than if it were in software. Maybe it's worse because of economic reasons (all the computers we have today will become obsolete because of security problems) or maybe because it's impossible to mitigate the flaws (the bugs are physically part of the hardware).

Also I remember that cryptographers consider any leaking of information about a secret to be a break. They call this "semantic security". Maybe there's something special about crypto that means people have to be maximally paranoid. I wonder what level of paranoia is appropriate for CPUs.

Actually, if NetSpectre can already leak information about a plaintext or secret key, then that already breaks all of cryptography from some cryptographers' point of view.

Another thing: Nation states may learn how to execute Spectre attacks faster than academia does. Then again, those same nation states would also want to switch to non-Spectre-prone computers, which would be visible enough for other people to start changing. Or maybe I'm putting too much faith in the IT skills of nation states.

Given all that, I don't know what safety margin is appropriate for CPUs. When do we consider all of our CPUs to be broken? Is it when Spectre attacks are being used to extract our financial info en masse? Is it soon? Or is it when governments start changing their computers (assuming governments are even that clever -- see the NHS and Wannacry)?

Sure. Nobody's arguing against responsible stewardship. What seems to rile people up is the idea that protecting the environment is an instrumental, not a terminal value, and that we can and should trade off environmental protection (here, endangered species) for other things that people find important.

Lots of people see environmental protection as a terminal value instead, and few things offend people more than proposals to trade off terminal values for instrumental ones.

I know you are trying to push the argument to the extreme. At a minimum we should consider non-human creatures. This is to our own benefit. We have shown repeatedly that we are doing harm to ourselves by destroying the environment. As of now we are part of an interconnected ecosystem and we need the other parts of it.
I think I see what you're saying now. I have bought for so long from online retailers that it's kind of automatic for me to realize there's a lot of garbage listed in shops that allow third party sellers.

It was always par for the course to be extra careful before I buy, never had a lot of trust in online retail products.
For games I just stopped buying anything that I didn't intend to play instantly.

And I do mean instantly. As soon as I get it, I start playing.

If I don't plan to do that, I don't buy the game until I do.

I now ignore sales completely, and only buy games when I want to play them.

This, surprisingly, actually lowered my game expenditure. But I was getting into the low 200s in my steam library, and I think I have only run around 30 of those at least once, so it was all really wasteful.

I roughly adapted the same thing to books, I don't buy a new book until I'm done reading my current book, or decided to drop the book I'm reading.

EDIT: Let me be clear: While I say instantly there's some flexibility. I may order a game on Amazon Wednesday, get it on Thursday, and start playing on the weekend. I think instantly may have been the wrong word. More like immediate/nearest in time.

I am one of your fellow human being. What you describe is not a prioritization of my interests, so you are not necessarily speaking for your fellow humans. My interests, and those of countless others, are best served by an ecologically diverse and sustainable future.

My viewpoint is that those who are quick to trample on the weakest, including endangered animals, will likely find it easy to trample on the rights of the poor. It is not in my interest to support that potential future where might makes right. Both my interests and non-human interests can be served at the same time, with no conflicts if viewed in the long term.
It's amazing that people keep supporting Apple despite it being so obvious that they are not doing it in the best interest of the customers. Think why wouldn't Apple keep a pro lineup that offers upgradable parts for the cost of little more weight and size(that theory itself is bs but anyway)? My MacBook Pro would work perfectly fine for another 5 years if I can upgrade the ram and replace my battery(which I can but have to give to service centre or risk myself with a complex diy procedure). The retina MBP have reached a pinnacle of laptop if you ask me with very minimal upgrades happening over the years. The CPU performance have improved but for most of the tasks I do it's going good and probably will hold itself for another 4-5 years provided I can upgrade the ram so that it can accommodate apps built by developers with modern computers with lavish ram.

This is a great point and it equally applies to housing. Not just which neighborhood you live in, but whether you own a house at all. Spend a quarter million dollars minimum and get locked into a mortgage for decades for what actual improvements over a mediocre rental? Nicer baseboards?

This also occurs in the free time/life difficulty space and has the same societal pressures. Got life figured out and going well? You need to level up. You need a home to work on so you can go to Home Depot every weekend. You need a pet or child(ren) to take care of. Happy with your job? Climb higher on the ladder. It's morally questionable in this society for your life to be easy, regardless of your status.

Try telling people in a social setting, as a working age person, that you accept half the salary in exchange for working half the amount and are happy with it and don't need more. Watch their facial expressions.
Nope, I explicitly mean non-negative, because you are allowed polynomials like x^4+x+2. In particular, polynomials are considered equivalent if they differ only in terms that have zero coefficients. That means that 0x^2+x+1 is the same polynomial as x+1. Further, 0x²+x+1 is not a polynomial of degree 2, because the degree is the highest power with a non-zero coefficient.

So the question is fine as it stands.

If you look at what happened here, I posted a very short comment asserting that honesty/"truth to materials" was a long-standing architectural value. Somebody followed up, attempting to refute every sentence in my comment. I felt like calling them out on their completely unwarranted, hostile contradiction of my comment.

So I wrote a long reply which supports my initial argument that "architects think like this". Not saying whether I agree with them.

That reply has received multiple abrupt aggressive responses: "architects are liars", "if an architect focuses on theory and fails to please the audience, he is incompetent", and now that my description is "conservative" and worse.

It's like the legend of the hydra, honestly.

My comment was intended as a historical overview. If you know of a significant school of thought in architecture that is profoundly radical, progressive, hedonistic in ways that are in conflict with the moralistic principles that I was attributing to architectural aesthetics, I'd love to hear about it.
Sorry you were triggered...

On a more serious note, I don't think personal sensibility is a good reason not to perform an experiment, or publish something. The main test should be, "is it true"? And, "What does the evidence show"?

A good reason might be if the subjects' rights were somehow violated, which IRB reviews in academic science are designed to prevent (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Institutional_review_board). Human experimentation is, in general, a highly regulated endeavor.

I strongly object to not doing science, or some kind of investigation, because one person finds it "disgusting". I think this attitude is getting more common, despite its harms.

This seems more damaging to Apple than to Autodesk.

I think that's very difficult for us to judge. Apple has access to far more data than we do. They may have decided that Autodesk's entire market is not worth their time.

Apple is a very strange company. Even though they're among the largest companies in the entire world in terms of value, they don't operate like a large company. They shift their product teams around all the time which seems to cause some products to get neglected for a really long time.

How is that false? They (as in, Apple's legal department) enforce their rules (such as, the schematics are copyrighted and publishing them is just as not-allowed as uploading a movie or ebook), that is hardly different from another company enforcing their rules. Comparing it with Ford doesn't help either, and neither does telling me to 'inform myself', I have been in this business since 1998 and haven't heard anything from Apple, ever. I'm not an APSP or AASP, but board-level repairs aren't new, and doing it without schematic's isn't new either.

If you read what I wrote, you should be able to understand that:

> they say is for keeping the brand standards but is for the money.

is exactly this:

> whenever a company says: we don't want third party X to do Y because of user experience, it mostly boils down to 10% user experience, 10% PR & Marketing, and 80% legal crap.

But without assuming malice or planned obsolescence. It doesn't make sense for a company to create a workflow, train people and build up logistics for an integrated product if there is no money to be made off of it. You can argue that you don't like that, but assuming that they (Apple as a company) makes tons of extra money because of that is a bit unfounded. It's not likely that a company would retain a client base if they actively practice such rules against incentives. If you turn it around, would you be able to say: "the company (Apple) would make more money if they sold spare parts and repair guides to anyone"? I think not. I don't agree with it, but it doesn't mean it's going to make a difference. A law would make a difference, and since this isn't an Apple discussion but a repair discussion based on Tesla, I'd think you would be more interested in a structural solution than trying to assign malice and speak emotions all day long.

The discussion should be about whether we agree with the rules, and if the rules are lawful (and if we can change the law to enforce a better set of rules). Not the personification of a company and assigning malice, that doesn't get anyone anywhere.
And this being a capitalist society, we pay our citizens (marshals and TSA) to spy on each other.
>but the people crafting his campaign messaging were not

Yeah, many people would dispute that. In particular, you can't forget that he rarely followed scripts. His team definitely observed and measured what people and the press responded to, and brainstormed how it might benefit them in the future. But it certainly all started as what he could think of or remember best.

The success of campaign slogans and buzzword relies heavily on creativity, luck, and your own success. The work the campaign teams invest is usually more about damage control than profound strategies on how to rule society.

>So, I guess there is a sense in which it connects to his legacy, but not the way you seem to think.

What are You talking about?

Fake news had been a trivial phrase, used in different contexts throughout the years but without any grand emphasis on its own existence—hence the lack of an entry in dictionaries. Even throughout 2016, it had no explicit connection to Trump. Hillary also used it shortly before Trump famously called CNN out as fake news. [1] Even then the term was an unnecessarily misleading trivialization. But Trump redefined and weaponized that afterwards as his own catchphrase.

It's not perfect law, but will these proposed changes to the Act result in better protection? Of course not.

There is a consensus among biologists that the Act has been successful to a significant extent. Barring cost consideration at any level does seem unreasonable, but cost consideration can lead to really perverse arguments; more dollars can be had by killing and harvesting and elephant that not, so therefore...etc.

The existence of other methods of conservation beyond this legislation doesn't make for a compelling argument to weaken it, nor does the fact that some people will prematurely harvest timber before endangered birds move in.
In principle, yes. It's not a different exploit, it's just a different measurement technique for the timing (and one that most people wouldn't have expected to be possible).

Say I already trust packages.redhat.com and install rpms regularly from it. I likely already have trusted their key.

Now packages.redhat.com gets hacked - if hacker also stole private key used for signing packages and replaced the RPMs. I will get warning/error while installing rpms (which I admit most users will ignore) but a curl|bash kinda defeats the point of package signing too.

> Every economic inefficiency --- every forced deviation from what people would prefer to produce --- has a cost.

It's not always that clear.

Replacing coal with solar was an economic inefficiency, until enough investment into solar happened. It's now cheaper to produce a MW/h via solar than via coal.

And that's before you factor in the pollution externalities.

We're all better off now because we did the temporarily inefficient thing via (in part) government intervention.

Just last week I applied Indian Passport because of some changes in my address & othet particulars, the process was to fill an online form, pay fees online, book appointment online, show up with a confirmation SMS & old Original Passport alongwith one more ID Original. So basically no photocopies, no paper. Went in at pre-opted time, entered a number from my SMS in a kiosk machine, confirmed all particulars filled in online as correct, stood for photo, put fingers on scanner when asked, got another token number, where when called, a single person asked me to show him my original existing passport & second ID, all ok, received a SMS & Email with all the details, & a case number to follow the progress. All paperless & interacted with only one human. All this was managed by Tata Technology & Indian Government.

Fun Fact, Machine didn't show me my photo till the very last step, & I thought of changing & having one more try to pose with looking bit good, got an error that Photo will he taken only once, & only them can initiate the re-click of photo, not me.

So, this doesn't work by itself in most setups (it won't heat the top and the bottom of the pizza at the same time), but I've seen a really cool trick used: a plate of silicon carbide in a microwave oven absorbs microwaves and turns them into heat (just like food, but it can withstand much higher temperatures). This can reach extremely high temperatures (IIRC, 800C+), hot enough to smelt tin.

why did you choose to focus on creating an entirely new editor vs creating a very opinionated plugin for vscode ?
There's a few reasons. For one, it's the new shiny thing and developers are always chasing that dragon. More importantly though, it's a good fit for some workloads so it actually makes sense sometimes which fuels the hype train. Finally, it fits in with the service architecture trends.
