Feral pigs are menaces and non-native species. We should thank the people that shoot and kill them. Most are eaten anyway, because -- if the ecosystem is healthy enough -- they're quite good.

Turkey are native species, but hunting is highly regulated, and given the stiff punishment for poaching, it is doubtful the person in the article was attempting to poach. That being said, Turkey are hardly endangered; they're like pigeons.

Also, equating hunting with hatred of 'sodomites' is just ignorance on your part.

I don't like the fact that it's /200/300, it should be /200x300. The slash makes it more difficult to read, i.e. in the example: https://picsum.photos/id/237/200/300, it would be much easier to read and understand if it were https://picsum.photos/id/237/200x300. Terrible decision.
Everything cyclists do generally only harms themselves, everything cars do generally harm others. Not sure why this is so complicated to you. Cars are killing machines, which kill 40,000 people a year in the US, more than guns.
About 3 trillion miles are driven, and about 9 billion miles cycled in the US each year. The fatality rate per mile for cycling about 5x the risk of driving, but hour for hour it is about the same because of the difference in speed.

The original point was that speeding is dangerous to others and normalized by society, but a cyclist running a red light is not dangerous to others, but it is not normalized. Speeding drivers kill 10k people a year. Cyclists running red lights kill less than 1 a year on average.

I can't reply to the sibling comment that suggests education, but a corollary to education is that many of the people who had deeply-engrained racist beliefs are dying/dead from old age. I agree that the world is less racist now than it was in, say, the 1950s, but my personal experiences with the elderly suggests that the people who were racist in the 50s and are still alive are just as racist now as ever.
That's correct!

Indeed, when you get very far outside of keyboard instruments, there is no "temperament," but merely a scale that's good enough for most purposes, evolved over time. And a better instrument might have a better scale. Players "lip" the notes up and down. Brass instruments have little tuning slides -- it's fascinating to watch a master play the tuba. Whether or not you activate these devices depends on how fast the passage is, and whether anybody is likely to notice.
Cool. Now, how many pedestrians do you think were killed by cars last year, and how many by cyclists? Or does dying not really worry you?
So you're on the side of the baker in the gay wedding cake case? The difference here is that that was one small shop among many so the customers aren't completely screwed. Social media is dominated by a small number of huge companies so that if they ban you, then you lose access to far more than just one private business. You can't just cross the street and use the other almost-as-good Reddit or almost-as-good Twitter. You're socially isolated online. For that reason, I think when companies have massive control of a big and important market, they should be subject to some greater obligations towards their users/customers.

I'm confused by this - why are you (re)building the same thing multiple times?

Why are you not building on what was done before, regardless of who did it? It seems to me that either the people choosing to start over are making the choice irresponsibly, or the previous work that got someone promoted actually wasn't that great (not extensible/reusable/documented/etc). In both cases, I'd be asking management some tough questions about what they've done and/or allowed to happen.

I've been counting 3 times now in The Netherlands, soon (if I get picked which is likely cause Amsterdam needs counters) is going to be my 4th time.

You get reimbursed some money (I think it is about 60 EUR for like 4 hours of counting, and it lasts until 1 AM often but depends per region). Doing the course before you count yields you another 25 EUR (I only did this once). If it weren't paid, then that'd be discrimination to people who cannot afford to take a day off for something like this (poor people). For us it is already tough as it is to get this show on the road with a young kid.

I can recommend to give it a whirl! You meet different people every time. I recommend to not discuss politics. Some people will try to, but its best to divert away from such. 1) You can't change the outcome anyway 2) Hence its pointless, and can only lead to fractures in the team 3) You and everyone else should aspire to remain neutral to avoid any potential bias.

> mutations killed megalodon and other big animals

Well, first of all sharks are famous for being extra-resistent to developping cancer. They are superconservative in its structure and did not changed practically its shape in the last 100 millions of years. If there are a creature that is practically un-mutable are sharks.

Second, the theory claims that big sharks where killed by muons but whales where somehow respected. Why the animals able to find refuge in deep waters (that stop muons) were wiped, but the animals that need to remain in the ocean surface are alive?

Third, trees are also huge organisms, for some reason weren't wiped. Why?

and fourth, big animals trive in Chernobill even with radiation.

I think that as hypothese is interesting but it has a lot of loose ends to explain.

It's important to separate the structure from the objects. There's 2-the-natural-number, 2-the-integer, 2-the-rational, and 2-the-real.

In each context, it's the "same" 2, but the structure we put around it is different. The structure is what makes it interesting.

2-the-rational is not prime. There are no primes when every non-zero element has a multiplicative inverse. An element with a multiplicative inverse is called a unit and for the same reason we exclude 1 from being prime we exclude units from being primes in other structures.

Every non-zero real number is a unit. Every non-zero rational is a unit. Only -1 and 1 are units in the integers. Only 1 is a unit in the naturals.
Compostable plastic coffee cup lids work just fine.

There is no good reason for disposable food containers to not be biodegradable. Consumers can afford the extra 1¢ or whatever.

Many of the coffeeshops in SF use only compostable cups/lids.
Nice summary. Bookmarked.
In the UK there is a chain called Costa where the in-house mug only comes in one size, and it's a thimble - much smaller than the larger take-away cup. So you end up asking for a take-away cup even though you're staying in and they have mugs available.

oh excuse my french but fuck-an-a clarks are amazing. The pair I bought mine at (which actually still somehow work) was from a mall which is now demolished and has since turned into a condominium with a park.

Yes, the store left, the mall was abandoned, it got leveled, a new building was placed there and that was a few years ago. I still have the damn sandals. I wore them yesterday.

I tried moving on from them around 2012 using a pair of sandals from DSW and those went to tatters so I went into my closet and brought the old clarks back out and now years later they still work.

I should go and hunt out another pair.

There should be a review website with an incredibly high barrier to entry that is designed to make sure there's completely unsolicited reviews for products. Avoiding abuse and spam is definitely hand-waving here but that site would be great.

A great read about that is “a complete idiot’s guide to chemistry of love”, which gave some solid peer-reviewed confirmations to some of the trends I thought I was spotting.

When I was living in Portland it was super common for people to bring their own mugs (usually those metal camping style cups with closable tops, but I'd see plastic cups too) to coffee shops. The baristas would usually blast them with some steam to clean them out then fill 'em up! Easy as pie.
That strikes me as true but sort of beside the point jacquesm was making. If you disagree, though, I'd like to hear your reasoning (really).

Those voices are far from unheard. If anything, they've been the dominant political voices for the past 40 years. Sure, California and NYC's cultural output is the loudest voice in the country. But, politically speaking, they're largely ignored. Obviously ignored by Republicans, but the timid national Democratic leadership will also ignore them in their relentless centrism.

The political system makes it pretty easy to ignore the liberal coastal areas. Republicans benefit enormously from the unevenness of the Senate, House seat allocations, and the Electoral College. And then in the states they control, they put their finger on the scale via gerrymandering. Democrats can ignore the coasts too because who else are they going to vote for?

Though the greatest irony of all is that those rural and poor voters in the flyover states are also ignored in terms of their real needs. Their party tosses them cultural red meat regularly, but defunds the things they need: schools, roads, and various safety net programs which are often the only thing keeping the rural poor afloat.

IANA, which controls domain names, is in the US, which means it's technically under the complete control of the US government. That means the civilian-facing Internet and World Wide Web are under the complete control of the US (and always have been, as far as I know).

> For starters, the govts don't even get technology.

The US govt did all the research that led to the current Internet. The World Wide Web was invented at CERN, another governmental organization.

Many of the major advances of the 20th century were funded, organized, and run by governments.

If you meant to say that legislators don't even get technology, that would be a lot more valid. But legislators (in the US) provide funding to people who are at the forefront of their fields.

The best textbooks, the ones considered classic gems in their field, are careful about what they say and what they leave out. You get the sense that every word is in its right place.

By comparison, Goodfellow and his co-authors seemed to just dump everything they know onto the page. It's fragmented, bloated, and it meanders all over the place. Goodfellow was on a recent podcast where he seems to acknowledge that the book straddles an awkward place between tutorial and reference.

At my last job, I finally ended up working at a company with around 150 employees on-site.

I set a few ground rules for myself before joining:
No social media interactions with people from work. Invitations can be deferred until after you no longer work together. Don't get suckered into talking about politics or other divisive topics. Keep it professional and always do the right thing.

With that in mind, to answer your questions:

Did people like me?
Heck yes they did! It was easy! I'd walk right up and introduce myself to everyone I didn't know whenever the opportunity presented itself. I'd learn about them as much as I could and tell them about what I did and hopefully we'd be able to help each other. I'd ask people how things were going and try to hang out with people as much as I could during lunch / coffee breaks.

But more importantly, did they respect me?
It was clear to everyone why I was there. I was there to make my team succeed despite everything that was going on outside my team. This meant that there was plenty of work to be done beyond what my title suggested.

> The US property tax system is nothing like this. The government owns ALL the land, and no one else can ever own any. The government has tax authority over the land and many other things.

Just a quibble, but, with the exception of federal lands, it's the individual states that levy property tax in their territory. Allodial title is what it's called when you have no obligations on the property. Nevada allowed limited allodial title, but it only lasts for the life of the owner. The way the implemented it was they computed an estimated total property tax and the owner would buy out the state's interest for his lifetime[1]. It actually provides additional privileges besides property tax exemption. Liens can't be enforced on an allodium, among other privileges.
