The fact is that Leary told people to use acid responsibly and that "set and setting" were the most important aspects. Well, if you pay attention to set (your state of mind before dosing) and setting (where, when, and who you are with) tripping is safe and a valuable experience for 99% of the people, most of whom just go back to their regular life 24 hours later.

I'm not sure why people like you give Leary a bad rap just because he tried to popularize this experience. I've never understood that.

The moral panic was created by the American government in the Nixon era because of the political effects the hippies were starting to have. Anything to keep the war machine going.

They demonized acid just like they demonized weed the previous generation with propaganda such as "Reefer Madness" ...oh LSD causes "chromosome damage" (never proven, total bullshit) and the like. In the 90s they made similar claims about MDMA which also scared the establishment due to its political ramifications...the love and peace thing was rearing it's ugly head once again, and they squashed it using similar tactics.

Well, all the other manufacturers are trying to match what Tesla has (and is still working on). Tesla's also going to bring a value-ish car in a couple of years.
That's a nice idea. However, it requires a lot of technology that we currently don't have. Given that building new underground lines in cities is already a project that takes more at least a decade from planning to finishing, I don't think waiting for a) self driving technology to mature (this includes regulatory approval!), and b) self driving technology becoming cheap enough to compete with rail, is a good idea if you want to prevent total traffic breakdown in the face of continuing urbanization.

It's pretty weird everything, on my country nothing outside "this is your score, this is your admission" would be allowed.
$35K Model 3 out early next year, the average selling price of a US car.
This sounds like satire, but I don't get the joke.
I don’t follow Alex Jones on Twitter and I don’t watch his show.

How are those two things different?
In counterpoint, I've had a Model 3 for two weeks now, and can't operate the touchscreen at all while the car is moving. I can't hit the small buttons at arm's length while the car is bouncing around. The first (and last) time I tried to turn on the fog lights, I turned off the headlights instead.

So my personal rule now is, don't touch the screen while the car is moving.
While I would argue that the best alternative to Facebook is nothing, it is interesting that there is no "Internet community creation kit" which would just be a blog+forum software integrated so that one section of the forum is dedicated to comments on the blog posts while other sections allow users, not just site editors, to create threads.
And yet hybrid sales are low, despite your enthusiasm.

I'm the same. Anything I do, I make sure it's in typescript because I find it easier to write than standard js.

Generics are a complex concept for people to grasp without some time playing and reading docs, but once you learn it, you can express almost everything you want.

But for simple projects you can get away with all but the most basic of generics, if any at all.

With the release of conditional types, I find most of my js typing cases are covered.

Though tbh I've always leant toward the side of "if you can't express it easily, then you're being to JavaScripty".
There’s no reasonable way of verifying a real name for an open source platform like Mastodon
I've spent time with Flow, and I like some aspects of it (the type system seems a little more expressive, at least in the ways I know how to bend it). But it seems like TypeScript has fairly soundly won, as far as the two of them go. I've moved to writing almost exclusively TypeScript and I really don't regret it.
The current theory is he was hit by a train:

From his last video(Aug 11th 2018): https://youtu.be/oH41gGBVpkE We see he is at the Dalles county library.
​

Later in the evening (Aug 11th, 2018), The Dalles Chronicle reports an unknown man was hit by a train: https://tinyurl.com/ybakopls

Reports mention Terminal street and either 1st or 2nd street.

Also the Terry Davis facebook page is more than likely not Terry. It appears that the twitter handle "TheTemple" created it and fooled his relatives into accepting the friend requests. The family has no reason to make any of this public, I doubt they realize the extent of his internet following. But "TheTemple" could see their private posts and pictures mentioning Terry's death from the friended "Terry A Davis" facebook account (which he then subsequently memorialized). A video here: https://youtu.be/J3aNATL1YAM
They won't solve every issue posted to it though. Also microsoft does things differently to Linux distros. Hardware manufacturers have to make sure their devices work with windows and software devs have to do the same. Canonical accepts bug reports on just about any hardware and the thousands of programs in the repos.
This is also true for my recent numerous installs of Pro, which is absurd
Another fun fact is if you remove the App Installer or whatever it is called, you can't remove the "adware" apps
This is not an issue of mental health in America. American society decided that Terry Davis was not a threat to himself or others, and thus permitted him the freedom to choose whether he would get help for his condition or not. That freedom may be clouded by his condition, but it is a freedom he is afforded none-the-less. Terry Davis is a success story in America being tolerant of the mentally ill.
The screen looks messy to me. I really don't care/want to see the attached files. It reminds me of stack of old books on a shelf with pages spilling out.
> So the US closing up trade at this point is immoral from a historical perspective

This is not a statement which should be made nor accepted without sound reasoning to support it.

Why should any given historical event have moral relevance to decisions today? From when do we start? Why?

Second, history is almost always far more complex than such arguments assume.
> The problem with your theory is that the main idea of Special Relativity is that time is a good tangible dimension, that has (almost) the same properties than the other three dimensions. And this is fully backed by experiments, and the effects are measurable . . . THE COLOR OF GOLD . . .

Emphasis mine.

I'd never heard of this before, so I did a quick search and thought this might be interesting to other people as well:

I know, and that’s a definite plus. I don’t have to worry that it will go away or lose all the main contributors.

But is not developed by the same developers/company as React.

I will say given what TS is competing against the fact that it so well used is rather compelling. I know all of Angular is also written in TS. It’s clearly very heavily used.
I haven't thought about the binders in ages. There was nobody in my department who knew much about the SGI machines and my only tutor was those binders. Looking back I wonder how I accomplished anything at all.

This alarmist thing is going on for decades now ("Home Taping Is Killing Music") but the music industry still exists.
Have/had a similar issue. Many of the good friends I made in this city over the past years have moved, specifically to the more popular ones in Canada. Trying to rebuild that circle hasn’t worked out. I either run into acquisition problems like you or the relationships that do turn into something more end up ending due to them leaving the city as well.

At this point I’ve resigned to believing that the types of people I attract don’t want to stay here, and maybe I should just follow the herd.
Could you expand some more on the tooling/editor support?

I’ve only done a cursory look. My editor (IntelliJ) supports both to some level. Webpack/Babel do too.

I’m very new to writing React and modern front end JS so it’s quite possible there are things that I should be looking out for that I don’t even know about.
Not to mention that most of them died from diseases spread (mostly unintentionally, I admit) by invaders. Also, it's my understanding that China and Israel both justify their behavior from US history.
I don’t know if this relates but I switched to a low carb diet a month ago (no fasting) and the first 2-3 weeks were terrible. I felt noticeably more depressed and my wife noticed it too. She recommended stopping the diet but I kept on and added electrolyte water. After adding electrolytes, I feel as good as ever. I started working out more and have lost 15 lbs but plateaued since. I want to try the fasting diet described in the article with no breakfast and no lunch but I am not sure if I’ll be able to. Since I do not eat carbs at dinner, often I’ll feel hungry around 9pm and it feels like an eternity to breakfast if I don’t go to bed soon there after. I can’t imagine skipping breakfast AND lunch on this type of routine without adding back the carbs. Anyway, I guess my point is that it gets better as you follow whatever diet you embarked on.
From the suggested solutions, it sounds like you need deep domain knowledge to know exactly how the cobra effect will manifest and what rules to use to prevent it.

That's hardly a simple solution!
One difference of course is that while we can always return to a physical position in space, even if the contents of that space have changed, it seems very conceptually challenging to imagine returning to a position in time even if the contents of that time had changed. What would this even mean?

Our definition of time seems therefore to be two things: first, a snapshot of physical state (in which we imagine points in time a bit like Back to the Future), and secondly (as other comments have noted) a measure of periodicity.

The latter is that which we seem to be measuring experimentally (e.g. with differences in atomic clocks within gravitational fields). However what we are literally measuring seems to be something like “how many times can a given particle move/irradiate relative to another given particle before we bring them back to each other”. Reducing to a pendulum for example, we could imagine that the space was “more dense” so it took longer to travel the same apparent distance, a bit like how light takes longer to travel through particular materials. Another way to see this would be a kind of universal framerate.

So based on this possibly weak conceptual understanding, I can certainly imagine a fourth property of any given spacetime location that reflects how frequently events can occur in that space (a kind of EM-field view of time), but to consider this as a geometric “position” or coordinate is something I conceptually struggle to imagine.

Sure, I meant when the same 5 tuple is oscillating between different paths which really should not happen.

You mentioned there were plenty other ways to avoid polarization. I would be curious to hear what those are.
Is it really problematic if there are preinstalled games? My Huawei phone came with some, I didn't care much.

I mean, they take up some space but don't affect system behaviour, like some old windows OEM bloatware did.
He would like a place with "Cat pictures! Jokes! Links to interesting things that we found in the backwaters of the internet! Interaction with friends we just haven’t met, yet!"

A blog, even with comments enabled, is less effective at that than Twitter was. (Certainly not ineffective, but as Wheaton has had long experience on both Twitter and maintaining a blog, I think we can conclude he wants something he doesn't get from blogging.)
All I ever do with TypeScript is spend a lot of time deleting it... just like the computer does.
With the Schottky you will get better low power detection (lower forward voltage 0.18V vs 1.8V), but it doesn't inherently indicate activation (you'd want an electret or piezo speaker at least) with the same dynamic range as your eye is capable of with an LED. Of course if you have an RMS power meter with uW resolution it will be OK... but LEDs are really good.

I think they meant that a lunch at 12:00 and a dinner before 19:00 fit together in an 8h window, which gives you 16h fasting window.
My initial impression — and I by no means have any handle on the specific situation, is that this whole thing had nothing whatsoever to do with Wil, and everything to do with testing a capability.

Wil happened to walk in on a type of weapons test. I think the attack in this case would be considered a “success”. Or was it just for lulz?

Was there any cost to the attackers? Are they throwaway accounts or real identities? Is it at least forever tied to that account so that there could possibly be some future reackoning?

So many questions about the whole incident and response.
Things are much different in the bay area at least. My employer has a whole bunch of of plugs in our parking garage, and I charge for free every day. My commute cost is almost negligible because of it. I can totally see a future where it just becomes standard for every parking lot to be powered with at least a few plugs. When you're plugging in everywhere you go, there's no need for overnight charging.
When engineers see 5 different physical ports, they want to consolidate, because there's no good reason for them to be different, and there are real benefits to be gained by having them all the same.

Only certain engineers. Don't group the ones who love gratuitous complexity and "value engineering" with those who think complex standards like USB-C are a horrible idea and would rather have separate and simple interfaces.

There's a reason RS-232/485 (along with good old D connectors) are still extremely prevalent in non-consumer equipment.
Speaking to your analogy, rather than the original point: We use a bread machine because you can set it and forget it, and come back three hours later to dough that is ready to finish.

I suppose the analogy in woodworking is someone who's good enough to make a dovetailed drawer, but not consistent enough to make 11 of them the same. :) Come to think of it, that's me too.
You many need to buy/rent another, but it can be in a lower cost market. Nothing says it has to be the house next door.
Good on you, thanks for the gracious response.
I except that a significant portion of drivers will be able to drive at home. You don’t need as many gas stations in a world where over half the owners charge at home (or work)
Is LIDAR actually better than video? If I understand LIDAR correctly, it gives a 1D array of depth data and is fairly limited in either resolution or speed. Video provides much more data at higher speed, and it seems like it'd be easier to identify objects from 2D color images. Stereo (never mind eight cameras) can be used to derive depth information.

But I'm not a practitioner, so educate me. How does LIDAR beat video?
I get the idea, it just seems like a very "2013" way of doing web development. Things have moved on past the monolith for an endless amount of reasons.
Does anyone regularly use mastodon as their social network of choice? I've registered and looked around but it seems so.. boring. How did you kick-start your social graph to the point where it became interesting? With twitter, instagram and facebook I had actual in-life acquaintances using the network. With mastodon, I'd have to go seeking content pretty aggressively.

You can see a glimmer of why he has so much trouble with trolls though in that post. He refers to Trump as "Shitler" and his supporters as "cultists" and then a few paragraphs later admonishes the reader to "Please do your best to be kind, and make an effort to make the world less terrible."

"Do what I say but not what I do..." is a terrible way to get people around to one's way of thinking.
React can fade but JavaScript won't..(it could only evolve). outside react Typescript is the clear winner and even most of the react projects I am seeing is using Typescript. I would say Typescript is the clear winner. Also VSCode is now far popular than other editors which is developed by Microsoft as well..
This type of problem falls on what I call the "conversion" problem.

Having a customer where I did some work with e-mail campaigns with several products and different populations, it was almost constant for these values:

10-15% open the e-mail.

1-3% Convert or create an action.

And I do extrapolate these numbers for the whole population. It come to be the 1-3% that "do something" and that 10-15% who reads and leave for later.

Parents and teaching meeting? 10-15% will think about going...1-3% will go and take some action (volunteer, raise).
Same on other activities.
I am not blaming or judging, but we can't always be on 1-3% every time all the time.

So expect 1-2% of visitors giving stars for you.
If you're making bread for the joy of making bread, you're likely not using a machine.

However, if you're making bread because you want fresh bread daily when you wake up, or you want to taste new+unique recipes, etc, then a bread machine is likely exactly what you want.

Going back to this CNC, maybe you want some unique furniture or shelves or whatever, maybe you're wanting these not for the joy of making them, but for the joy is using them, seeing them, etc.

There's a market for this, it's just obviously not for you :)
“Examples of such prescriptions include fasting or caloric restriction (e.g., 500 calories) on alternate days or 2 d each week, or forgoing breakfast and lunch several days each week”

They do however state that there is no single prescription yet and that various timings should be studied further to find an optimum method.
Hybrid or not isn’t really the point.

A gas car refills to max range almost instantly. It just so happens this Camry example has particularly good range on one tank of gas by virtue of being a hybrid, but the point is no more diminished with any other ICE car. Many non-hybrid models will also comfortably manage 500+ miles on a single tank.

All that said, I suspect there is a “good enough” tipping point for EVs, especially now that we are seeing some manage ~300 miles on one charge, which is more than enough for many commutes/weekly shopping trips etc.
You can easily remove them. It's still annoying having to deleted Candy Crush.

I would have a hard time justifying $400 for a Chromebook when a tablet+keyboard is cheaper and slightly better.

Plus with Surface Go....$400 seems like a rip off for a Chromebook.
> It shouldn't take me more than three clicks to get from my starting point to the information I'm looking for.

I see this sort of criteria and really don't agree. There are many operations that take more than three clicks. Navigation a UI is a graph in itself, and we can handle way more than 3 nodes.
In the same way that I can remember how to get to work, or get a book from one of my bookshelves.

Anyway, small point.
It will be privatized, like some parking meters and infraction monitoring already are.
But you try and tell the young people today that, and they won't believe you.
I always wonder why people think typescript is a fix for bad code.

We primarily do JavaScript, and I see no issues with it when you set up governance in how to use it.

I don’t think building your own libraries is really a bad thing either, in fact I think you should do so often instead of relying on 3rd party packages of quality you typically judge on how many times they’ve been downloaded if you’re being honest.

I think typescript is silly. It works with legacy code, sure, but if you’re refactoring you might as well rewrite your JS or if you’re compiling to JS you might as well chose Dart which is vastly superior to typescript.

I don’t really see type safety as an issue. I can’t remember when it was a problem for us, and we operate millions of lines of code, but they are all written with governance. Want a number? Then call your argument numWhatever and check your input. It’s really as easy as that.

I mean, sure type checks will prevent shitty code from compiling, but really, just don’t write shitty code. I know that sounds silly to some people, but 95% of what you write is about shifting data around through simple mechanics, it really shouldn’t be so hard to do it right.

You won’t see an engineer go “oops that support beam in your building wasn’t right, my bad” and programmers really shouldn’t get that luxury either. If they write shitty code then figure out why, maybe they need more time, maybe they need training, maybe they need governance or maybe they need to be replaced.

But hey, feel free to fix your shitty code with code that’s only less shitty because your compiler protects you. Just know that typescript comes with a different set of risks, once you need your JS codebase to move forward in a way that isn’t supported by JS.
Never mind, your statement makes sense - yeah that’s a 16 hr fasting window.
The temptation to "standardize" 20 different indistinguishably incompatible variations of anything is not new. The last several HW generations did a pretty good job resisting it, though, and this one emphatically does not. Something changed. I'm wondering what that "something" was.
Multiseat is a bit complex under X11, but certainly possible today. What do you see as the advantages of thin clients, though?
I think it does kind of in the way they say, but the real issue is that github has been a frozen project for like a decade. It's terrible at sorting, aggregation, ranking, sharing, and recovery of interesting things. It barely extends the existing git features. I'm not going to hold my breath for MS to make it actually better, but I am 100% certain that the inertia of open source projects would be greatly helped by a thoughtful way to just do and display basic tagging and project exploration history.

Yes I know github tags exist (and git tags and branches), and I've found things that I wouldn't of found otherwise, but personal and maybe color coded tagging of my own stars and forks. Maybe a view timelines of my own exploration and groups them by the stats created by other people's tags. To say nothing of producing a feed that was even just a rip off of 2005 facebook's wall with accessory discussion. This could totally still be kept in repo if need be.

Long story long, stars is all we got. They suck. So do forks. It's probably not going to improve when it merges with Skype. What are we doing next?
Safety concerns are also a huge issue with motorcycle adoption.
Uh, OK, I thought it was, but you're free to disagree.

I do agree that there's a ton of evidence that Tesla's S/X have plenty of range for most people to not be bothered by it. And it doesn't appear to matter to these folks that a hybrid would fill up faster, which brings us back to hybrids.
Another interesting open source community driven project is Maslow CNC router [0]. I bought one recently although I haven't assembled it yet. It works on cutting large 8x4 boards. Another tabletop router CNC robot [1] is coming to market soon.

All this innovation in these inexpensive CNC tooling excites me as it enables a garage tinkerer to play with woodworking projects.

Edit: I am not affiliated to either of these companies
