>This is because there is probably a link between eating a lot of red and processed meat, and bowel (colorectal) cancer.

Probably? Link? "Link" as in "co-occurring but not necessarily causally related"? No references to the studies or methods? This is the same quality material that has been used to promote eating less fat for several decades, while obesity exploded to record levels.
"Net Neutrality" is one of the biggest misinformation campaigns I've ever seen in my life. I've never seen so many predictions of doom and gloom over such a small thing. More so those opinions put out by non-technical people to mislead non-technical people.

We've never had "net neutrality" and we never will. Doing so goes against how the internet fundamentally works. All packets are not the same. QoS exists and will always exist. Internet companies can't consume all the bandwidth and not pay for it. This has always been about Silicon Valley vs ISPs with ISPs wanting to charge the actual cost of service and Silicon Valley wanting a free ride to all of the ISPs customers. No customer will ever see any change from the creation of nor lack of net neutrality.
The coyotes know exactly* where the invisible fence begins and ends, without the benefit of ever wearing a shock collar. How do I know? Because they intentionally leave their scat on their side of the invisible fence, creating a demilitarized zone as precise and as well-observed as anything on the Korean peninsula.*

Hmm.. couldn't this be just a result of the dogs not having marked the territory where the invisible fence is? As in, it's just territory essentially open for the taking?
I wish Google would build an OAuth flow that would provide an obfuscated and unique email address to services that need an email address for logins or any communication at all.

When weird sh!t happens at the extreme end of liberal/conservative institutions, it tends to spread to the nominally-not-so-extreme liberal/conservative institutions. Evergreen may well be a leading indicator.
I think it's important for there to be options - if you are reliant on the payment network, what happens if it goes down? What if someone for whatever reason is unable to use their card?

Having cash as a universally accepted backup is a good thing. That being said, I can see all the issues with the implementation - I've experienced some of them myself. But, why have we not seen any improvements? We already have mechanisms for processing cash and change automatically, vending machines do it all the time. Self-checkouts seem to manage cash just fine.

Just a speculative idea, but why not an automatic cash processing machine on the side of the main line? Tell it what the amount owed is, person can move over there and take all the time they want digging through wallets without disrupting the main flow. Possible issues with employees having to take time out for fixing issues with the machine, but then you have that problem with card processing machines anyways. Some Walmarts have both cash/card machines and card only machines - seems like a reasonable compromise.

There are clear benefits to being able to process both card and cash - why are we so fixated on getting rid of cash instead of bringing the process to the same level as card?

I wonder if an email masking service would make sense. You register with it, and give it your real address. You then can generate a new public email anytime you like. Control how it behaves, etc. [/me hits up google]

So, I just looked to see, and there is already a service doing this: https://www.abine.com/. The email forwarding is the easy part. They also do "burner" credit card numbers. I don't know that domain to know how you do that, but that seems good. They also do phone numbers. Neat idea.
I agree and had a similar experience my very first time. It ended up being a space in a dusty basement with pet hair everywhere. However I've had many good experiences since then and some mediocre ones. It could be a case of "you get what you pay for" if you are trying to cut costs on lodging.
In addition to everyone else's comments, there's another big problem: browsers treat setTimeout delays as very loose suggestions.

If you're scrolling when one of these timeouts is set, or one starts and then you start scrolling, it's possible for the browser to delay the callback for a super noticeable amount of time, on the order of 3–10 seconds (about a thousand times slower than you intended).
Thanks for your comment! Did you read the article?
They're a public endpoint and are open to receiving from any other address. It's no different than your physical address. You don't use them for authentication or marketing, they're just an identifier. Keeping them private accomplishes nothing.

Here's a much more in-depth article from Troy Hunt, the same security guy running HIBP quoted in this story: https://www.troyhunt.com/im-sorry-but-your-email-address-is-...
But exactly these kinds of sciences are part of the reason why a growing part of the population doesn’t trust scientific research and experts anymore.

Changing something here for the better has an higher impact on society than doing the same thing e.g. in physics.
I may end up re-thinking this, but one idea was that you could temporarily `tail -f` a log file into a pipe and then check up on it later via a mobile browser. It could be writing the whole time, but just dropping everything when you weren't watching it.

It would probably also make more sense if I were to add some kind of buffering or storage in the future.

During the course of your story, the worker-to-owner ratio has grown from 1:1, to 100:1. So the chance of the three children actually improving their lot as plumbers has actually gone down, not up.

And your story doesn't mention the recession, or the replacement of plumbing labor by technological innovations.

A similar story is happening in farming.

But it's a good lesson, as it teaches the relative productivity of capital and labor.
This. When people talk about leaving the area there is an assumption that not only will you be able to work for your current company remotely but you’ll also keobsbly keep your salary. Neither of these are necessarily true, especially for your _next_ job.
There seem to be some advantages of being a highly curious/motivated novice. Any time I pick up a new activity, I tend to get a lot of new ideas that could be applied to the problems I'm experiencing for the first time.

Novices also have the advantage of being able to better empathize with other newcomers to a given field - this could potentially open up a technology to a wider market.
> less trivial to reproduce.

Seriously, this is nit picking, and you seem to acknowledge that here by using the term "less trivial". Instead of "tar -x" you run "rpmbuild -bp" to get the patched source RedHat will unleash the compiler on. For debian its "dpkg-source -x". I'm not even sure that it could be called "less trivial".

Getting hold of the source in the first place it looks to be "more trivial" to me as there is no Wumpus hunt to find the URL. For Debian it's just "apt-get source package-name". The RedHat equivalent is "yumdownloader --source". In both cases that gets you the exact source used to build the binary on your machine. I don't know what you would call a strong reference back to the actual source used, but I'm struggling to see how it could be much stronger.

As for the "hidden build process": it's only hidden because it's automated. You may as well be blaming "make" for hiding the kernel build process, which is more complex than most distro package builds. But every step the distro build processes (any distro) can be made very visible, naturally enough because otherwise it would be impossible to debug when things go wrong. And there is excellent doco on how to do all of this for both Red Hat and Debian.
These kind of code-signing certificates should be free for free and open source projects.

The context is that Tesla has had troubles in the past, and will continue to have troubles into the future, so this particular article is not indicative of any inflection point. It's the continuation of a long trend of mismanagement, shifting timelines, and questionable decisions that have nonetheless failed to take the company down.
That's what price and classiness does, doesn't it? Isn't price the ultimate barrier? Isn't that why Facebook and friends are so effective, because they want to subsidize everything?

More interesting would be to get a business license you must supply services to different tiers of pricing access.
As a tradesperson myself, I completely reject the idea that the trades place limits on people.

In my opinion, getting an expansive view of human knowledge has almost nothing to do with where and what you formally study. Indeed, as you progress through higher learning institutions a person tends to learn more and more about less and less.

If a person is curious and motivated they'll have more luck getting an expansive view that those who are not.

It may very well be that motivated curious people attend higher learning institutions more, but those people will obtain their expansive view in spite of their formal education, not because of it. Generally speaking.
The second / is converge, rather than reduce - I don’t think python (or pandas) has it in a common library - and even if it did, usage would be ultra clunky. Your description is excellent, just wanted to make it more precise.

This is generally the case in cities in my experience as well. Though right now I'm spending a few weeks working remotely in the countryside of Ireland and it's been a great way to kind of live like a local, which is an experience I like to seek out sometimes.
Also seems like if you're going to rate a painting purely on how much of a rush it gives you to see it, having a subject matter like war that kicks right at the base of your humanity and then comparing it to an abstraction is a bit of a rigged game... I mean even I could probably write a country song dealing with really simple subject matter that would make my mom cry, it's how people are built to react to stuff like that. But it doesn't mean I'm a great artist.
Lol. Yes, BGP/CDNs/QoS and constant deployment of new protocols like TLS 1.3 or QUIC is incredibly simple. If you don't know how something works, that doesn't mean it's simple.
The problem is the anti-egg science was convincing at the time as well.
I play a number of old musical instruments from around the 1920s/1930s; diatonic accordions and a concertina. The construction of the bellows is not dissimilar from that of older books, as they're made of cardboard, leather, and hide glue. Interestingly the accordions don't really have much of a smell (except one which has cedar reedblocks, which is delicious), but the concertina smells absolutely fantastic and honestly it's a huge part of the instrument for me. If I haven't played it in a while it's one of the first things I notice again when I get it out, and my girlfriend regularly mentions how great it smells as well.

Not a huge surprise that we both love physical books as well :)
I mean, I’m done with other people. I don’t even fucking care what happens next. And no amount of blinders could possibly stop me from destroying my peers at this point, so there’s that.

Company I work for was using an email verification service for the first time. We have a lot of brands, so I was being my white hat self and checking it out before we risked importing our largest subscriber brands.

It took me all of 10 minutes to find a convenient JSON endpoint with incrementing IDs that didn't disallow cross-account pulls. It wasn't a public MongoDB endpoint like the above, but we did get a pretty sweet discount rate for reporting it to them and, you know, not abusing some other customer lists with 300M+ emails.
HTTP2 is stateless. It follows the same semantics as HTTP to be a generic stateless protocol.

TCP has stateful connections, but both HTTP versions are being sent over TCP anyway so in that sense the transport was always stateful.

It's not. TESC has been this way for a long time, it's nothing new to the people of WA. I'm 42 and went to a public university in the state, we all knew what TESC was back then, everyone who went there and goes there knows what they are getting in to. It's certainly not shaping attitudes at other universities.

I find it interesting that the discussion on Dependent Types lists Idris and Coq as languages and discusses Formal Verification but mostly focuses on Idris and Scala with Shapeless... but to my knowledge, Coq has actually won out in 2019 for this, and Coq has even branded itself for this specifically[0].

The entire point of opposing school vouchers is that the people pushing them and their implementation of school vouchers would devastate local school systems. There are some charter school successes, but that also ignores the many charter school failures [1] and the fact that again, they are barely beholden to any scrutiny. Charter schools also have a financial incentive to expel underperforming students in order to raise their average test scores rather than accommodate and improve their curriculum.

And again, the problem is racism. White flight exists. It is why public schooling in those neighborhoods is so bad to begin with and to ignore the history of racism in the public schooling system does a disservice to your argument.

You don't use wildcard addresses for this, you use sub/plus-addresses. That way the spam problem is completely avoided and multiple users per domain will work normally.
I’ve always found Europeans seem more inclined to generalize by country at the minute level than people in North America. Of course in an endearing sort of way, not to be mean.

Talent is talent, it can come from anywhere but tends to congregate in certian places. Usually because talent attracts other talent. Not merely just existing opportunity/attributes of the area.
I'm not saying a "tech" company has to be defined by how "hard" the tech is, or that a "tech" company isn't a "tech" company because it isn't working on LIDAR or AI.

I'm just pointing out that Airbnb's application of "tech" isn't necessarily "hard" tech, relative to other companies that it's usually associated with or compared to in the SF startup scene.
Easy Probability with Clojure: The South Park Socks Drawer
Net Neutrality has nothing to do with free market nor equal opportunity. If anything, it hinders new entrants because it entrenches the interests of Netflix and similar companies that dominate all internet traffic. Net Neutrality has always and will always be about Netflix and similar companies not wanting to be billed for constantly increasing the costs of the ISPs. Pro-net neutrality is pro-regulatory capture for companies like Netflix. No free market capitalist would ever be for regulatory capture.
Been using a wildcard for one of my email domains for years (facebook@..., linkedin@... etc) and never once have I had issues with spam. Everything for services I dont care about goes through SpamAssassin on the mail server and items that pass get dumped to Gmail, where only "ham" messages will get forwarded through to my real inbox.

To each their own and all that, but this method of driving adoption never works. Virtually nobody makes decisions that way when they're shopping for a product that is important to their everyday life.

This was Tesla's big insight in the car market. Pre-Tesla electric cars were all ugly, terrible vehicles that apologized for their own existence. They wanted to sell themselves based on the fact that they were good for the environment, while never compromising those ideals to make them, you know, actually nice to drive. But that was never going to catch on, because very few people are so idealistic that they will suffer an annoyingly bad product in exchange for virtue. People will do that all the time with little stuff, but not with big ticket items that they use a lot. So the designers of early electric cars ironically cemented their negligible impact on the environment by refusing to compromise their ideals, because the cars never became popular.

Tesla came along and realized that what they had to do was make electric cars something you _wanted_ to drive. Because they were luxurious, and fast, and sexy looking. The fact that they were virtuous was just gravy.

So if your statement is a good summary of their strategy, then they've got it backwards. You never win adopters by making crappy things that support a good cause. You win adopters by making things that do their job well, and support a good cause as a bonus. And presumably even idealists want adopters, so they should revisit that :)
It never was. There were afaik no studies ; basically the advice was given on the chain “dietary cholesterol -> serum cholesterol -> blocked arteries -> cardiac problems” of which the last was convincing, the middle mostly convincing at the time, though much less so now - and the first was just assumed but is now known to be essentially wrong.
What I'm saying is - it doesn't seem to be cleverness in action - just plain ol' animal instinct.

Sadly, "+" doesn't work. Too many web email validators fail when given a "+" character. Gmail has made some of that a little better, but I still bump into it too much.

I generally use "_" or "." for wildcard start as any email validator that hangs on those will get smashed immediately.
UPS did this with us a lot back when I was working for them. They hired too many people because they thought they were going to get a lot of contracts when DHL nosedived. Pretty likely that Tesla over hired to make their numbers and are waiting for attrition to reduce their staffing now that things are leveling out. Easier than laying off, especially with unions.
Since we’re sharing anecdotes: I do this presently and get very little spam to random addresses. I’ve been on this scheme for about a decade now. All spam is to a specific address, which I’d given out.

And this would be entirely convincing, were we living in 'normal' times in the first place. But the whole point that Haidt's article is drawing from is that the level of political factionalization nation-wide is quite unprecedented, at least in recent memory. For freak's sake, Donald Trump is POTUS in case you haven't noticed! Something that The Simpsons used to joke about as obviously crazy and ludicrous! People like to talk about the toxic tendencies on the left (the so-called "SJW's"), but that's hardly the one and only sort of craziness we're experiencing nowadays.
Not sure how this relates to my comment.
> "Cheating" in this sense, is any behavior that skews success probabilities toward any one side of the population over another.

So... putting in effort is "cheating"? Working smarter and finding ways to do more with less effort is "cheating"?

> I don't expect equality of outcome, but I do expect equality of opportunity.

I don't expect equality of opportunity, or at least not in the sense you seem to mean. People cultivate opportunities, as well as their own ability to take advantage of opportunities that come their way. A situation which is a perfect opportunity for one person may not be worth anything to another, because one was prepared for it and the other was not. To a certain extent this modern, more expansive take on "equality of opportunity" is just equality of outcome by another name, one level removed.

What I do expect, and what "equality of opportunity" originally referred to, is equality under the law. The law should safeguard everyone's life, liberty, and property from all that would threaten it, regardless of their individual background or status or connections or finances. In any conflict paupers and billionaires and politicians should stand equal before the court, to be judged solely on their actions and not their circumstances. The moment lawmakers or judges attempt to move beyond that, perverting the law to benefit one group at another's expense, the law fails in this first, primary duty.

> You make the mistake of attributing to human societies the quality of operating through purely logical mechanisms.

I never said anything of the sort. I merely pointed out the contradiction which exists in claiming that employers are "cheating" employees by paying less than they would be willing to pay if the issue were forced by minimum wage laws while not applying the same standard to consumers paying far less for the basic necessities of life than they would otherwise be willing to pay. Consumers benefit far more from this arrangement than employers do.

In most modern martial art discipline rankings I'm aware of, white belt is your rank when you step on the mat with no experience, so you don't really "earn" it. I think the metaphor would be whatever color the rank above white is, but that varies widely across disciplines.
