When I was young I got a check from Google's AdSense. My bank (huge in Scandinavia) told me they don't know what to do with it and will call me back. Eventually they offered 20 euros + 9% to cash it. Felt like robbery but no one really even knows what a check is here, it's extremely rare.
Author here. I don't factor in lunch (so take away 30-60 min). Also, the 19:30 stop is there as a hard stop. Sometimes I feel drained at 17:30 or 18:00 after a very productive day. In that case, I'm happy to wrap up the day.
Yep, that's the one. They have several models. Looking through my order history, I got the Luxe Bidet Neo 185. Looks like I got it four years ago. I kinda still intend to get a Toto some day (or maybe a Brondell), but it's not a high priority to go spend $600 on, I'm pretty satisfied with the cheap model.
I think this is a terrible plan / course of action... but it might just work!
I wouldn't say paper spread things around less. Paper and water is the way to go (absent soap), and that's what bidets are.
The author's bias is obvious. She's not even trying to create an impression of objectivity. The activists and this article's author are congratulating each other all over Twitter. Besides, the article contains nuggets like this:

> Meanwhile, there’s not a company in the sector that isn’t grappling at some level with the ways bro-gramming culture has made tech a toxic space for women and employees of color.

Anyone who uncritically invokes this frame is waging culture war, not describing it. This article is activist propaganda masquerading as neutral reporting.
Probably when Stadia is released, you’ll be able to pay directly through Chrome.

Especially with how ubiquitous
Chromebooks are, and how the original beta for Stadia was given to players through Chrome, it’s pretty much a certainty.

Since Microsoft and Sony have a more vested interest in keeping their traditional consoles afloat, you might have less luck with them.
No. But modern training methods include fasted workouts to improve fat metabolism. If you are ok with sub maximal performance keto can be a good way to reach it as the highest keto fat burning is higher than when you use carbs as well. the absolute performance is quite a bit better if you consume carbs though.
...and just as a follow-up, once you've dug into the problem enough to discover it's surprisingly difficult to define what is "the right thing" for a tree-shaker in Lisp to do, you realize that even if you build it, it doesn't buy you much. That's why we tend to sound curmudgeonly about the issue. It's a valuable learning exercise, so feel free to dig in. You'll gain some valuable insights into what makes Lisp special.
Or they did the same thing every US company will have to do thanks to the blacklist.

My favorite science story about the Etruscan language is using statistics of dice to clarify the words for numbers.

Dice were popular in ancient Mediterranean cultures. The older number arrangement put usually 1 opposite 2; 3 opposite 4; 5 opposite 6. At some point it shifted to the more modern 1-6; 2-5; 3-4 arrangement.

Usually dice used dots or "pips" as today, but an example was found numbered with Etruscan words. Arguing from statistics of how dice were numbered, they convincingly identified the pairs of numbers. This resolves an ambiguity from other literary sources about the Etruscan words for 4 and 6.

You can't do this on YouTube because YT satisfied the big copyright manipulators by adding their own system in front of the DMCA. As a result these claims don't go through the DMCA process and the legal penalties (toothless to begin with) built into the DMCA aren't available to you. Content ID killing your content or claiming it because someone misused Content ID isn't a legal matter so you are powerless. This is how it is intended to be: It's what Viacom/Disney/etc wanted and Google gave it to them.

AFAIK DMCA notices only produce a takedown, not monetization. If you want to monetize you go through Content ID, which is not the DMCA.

A false DMCA also exposes you to real legal threat, and a big player with money for a lawyer will dismantle you.
I really don't understand why the process has been designed to assume the copyright claimant is in the right from the get-go when it's the claimants that abuse the system. If I was Google I'd have my lawyers aggressively pursue the legal feasibility of banning companies from submitting complaints if they abuse the complaint system (if not then ban the channels of companies who have their lawyers abuse the system) and I'd have my developers build fair-use detection into content-id -- if the clip is less than 30 seconds or 10% of the work (or whatever threshold makes sense legally), then it's fair use, period, can't submit a claim on that.

It's really about time these companies felt some chilling effects.
Oh right I guess that's a dish made with macaroni then, and not just the pasta itself, so that's confusing.

We were shocked one night when it turned up at our back door with a live pet rabbit is had nabbed from a house a few doors away.

Interesting. I once had a golden retriever bring us a baby rabbit from the woods. But he brought it to us in a nurturing way, as if to being it to us for help, not for dinner.

Just another way dogs and cats are different, I guess.

that puts too much power in the hands of the police... like a drug dog that doesn't smell drugs, but alerts when the handler "has a feeling" and gives the dog a surreptitious clue.

nothing like that belongs in the legal system.

In practice the nugget per package gets cheaper as the package size increases and therefore a greedy algorithm is very useful and probably linear in the number of package types.
1995 has black text on black pen illustration.

2014 has thin gray text on brightened starry sky, which is too faint for my FHD Dell. Indians still buy 800p laptop and desktop screens which are too faint for rooms without curtains.

1997 and 2015 are also painful to read.

I will fight to not diverge from stock Bootstrap and landing pages to be upto 3 screens and definitely no scroll hijacking.
There is no evidence that dietary soy intake changes indigenous estrogen production or estrogen blood levels in a significant manor. Quite the contrary, observational studies of humans who get high amounts of dietary soy, findings have shown either no link to breast cancer or lower rates of the disease. East Asian women consume 10x the amount of soy as the average American yet suffer from lower rates of estrogen related breast cancer.

Eating soy every day has no effect on sexual health or testosterone either.
Asrock generally supports ECC with Ryzen CPUs. APUs and Athlon 200GE ($55) do not support ECC. You will need SODIMM (laptop) ECC RAM.

Supermicro is now shipping Epyc 3000 mainboards with ECC, e.g. 8 cores at 30W TDP with quad NIC and quad SATA.
Alternative headline: “Google complies with law”. They didn’t have much choice here.
The real problem with Youtube is that it remains to be the biggest copyright infringer on earth. There is almost no record and song, no matter how obscure, that you cannot find on Youtube, and nothing prevents you from downloading this content. I'm not judging this, just stating the facts, so don't downvote me for it. Who doesn't enjoy direct access to a gigantic music collection without paying? Everybody likes it and uses it.

Somehow Youtube gets away with that, because they are a major US company. If you'd find the same amount of content on a small foreign company's servers, the FBI would crack down on it in no time using all international law available.

The current extreme bias in the complaint system will not change, because it is Youtube's legal insurance. They need to be able to claim they've done everything they can fighting piracy. In reality, piracy is and always has been one of the major uses of Youtube in addition to the privately produced content.

As a result of this, Youtube is double unfair. It enables massive piracy and at the same time severely punishes original content producers in favor of predatory and sometimes plain fraudulent companies filing bogus copyright complaints. It's a systemic problem that IMHO could only be solved by drastic law reforms.
> Wouldn't the grand masters not enjoy beating you over and over again?

I mean, a couple times maybe? At some point I feel like they’d think this is a waste of time.
Thanks for the detailed response. That makes sense - the idea of "modularity" is certainly a design goal of RISC-v. I was curious about this however:

>"Now that we have SSD's the processors in storage controllers can't keep up with the math"

I haven't looked at hardware RAID boxes in quite some time. I guess I was kind of surprised that this would be an issue. Isn't the math involved just computing the parity of each stripe? Am I overlooking something obvious?
That's very much not what's happening. The 'content owner' made a claim and because of that gets all the ad revenue from the works in question, until YouTube decides in the uploader's favor. (but the uploader doesn't get the money back)

The content is never taken down.
Heck, I'd even have my developers write an AI that automatically extracts fair-use-length clips from videos and songs belonging to some of the biggest complainers, and uploads them as "honeypot" videos. If they complain about one of those, ban 'em from complaining again. They don't understand copyright law.
Full continuations capture things you do not want to capture, which easily leads to bugs. Delimited continuations can do everything call/cc can, only faster and easier to reason about. Call/cc captures the state of the whole program, which is not what you want. It is expensive, slow and error prone.

In my experience delimited continuations has about 4x less overhead (this is in guile which has really expensive call/cc though) and produces a lot faster code.

Oleg Kiselyov has written a lot about it: http://okmij.org/ftp/continuations/against-callcc.html

Matthew Flatt spoke about them at Microsoft research with comparisons to call/cc: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/video/delimited-and...

The gist of both of them are: you never want undelimited continuations even when you think you need them.

Properly implemented delimited continuations will always be faster and more memory efficient than call/cc (except for maybe in chicken scheme) and are imho easier to work with. They also compose with the current continuation which makes them a lot more pleasant.

If you want a practical argument for delimited continuations, watch the video with Matthew Flatt.

I got them all right. There are some noticeable artifacts in each of the generated clips that give them away.

> Also, on page 14 Black has mate in one

I think that's true of all the examples (isn't it?) - they all end at the move where Black has mate, but they admit nothing in the commentary. It's beautifully done.
I imagine similarly could be done on any old computer? (Amiga, etc?)

Yes. I do this occasionally with a TRS-80 Model 100.

And back when they were both still current, I would dial in to a PR1ME and Vax minicomputers with a Commodore 64.

My holy grail is figuring out how to run a personal Zork server on an Ubuntu machine that I can access (serial or telnet) from the 100.

Consider that the impossible burger is made from soy, and soy is the 2nd largest GMO crop. (https://www.huffpost.com/entry/genetically-modified-food_b_2...) Genetically modified soy is one of the top crops that use Monsanto's infamous Round-Up (https://www.motherjones.com/food/2014/04/superweeds-arent-on...)... so... while I agree reducing the number of cows we slaughter is a very good thing, increasing the need for more Round-Up ready crops is NOT (IMHO).
For clarity, are Ireland and Germany socialist countries?

Both require employee representation on boards, as do many other not-socialist countries. Germany also has works councils.
> it is just so important to put a "face" to a person.

Why?

Blind people can be productive members of a team without ever being able to do that. And yes, there have been productive teams made primarily or even entirely of blind people.

If you want to argue instead that it's important to put either a face or a voice to a person, well, I think deaf-blind people would argue with that, though I don't know much at all about that community.

These people are not whistleblowers. They are instead hard-left political activists falsely claiming whistleblower protection as cover for activity that harms the company.

For years now, these people have been bullying the company into advancing hard-left political positions instead of serving the company's founding mission. They have created a climate of fear for anyone who disagrees with their extreme political positions, and they have almost certainly violated their employment contracts by leaking confidential information to the press. Their friends in HR protect them.

They appear to engage in activism full-time on the company's payroll according to documents they themselves have posted.

They talk constantly about "Google's values", which they twist into claims that the company has already decided to support their political positions. They demand that Google give up billions of dollars in business by abandoning product lines and refusing to serve huge portions of the population. For example, one of them demanded that one business disable a key component that drives a lot of revenue, calling the situation an "extremism emergency". To this person, the negative impact would have been irrelevant. These demands never stop. They call them "ethics".

Any functioning company would have fired these people a long time ago. Google leadership is full of cowards.
> "Once we build a generally intelligent system, that basically we will ask it to figure out a way to make an investment return for you.'” When the crowd erupted with laughter (it wasn’t immediately obvious that he was serious), Altman himself offered that it sounds like an episode of “Silicon Valley,” but he added, “You can laugh. It’s all right. But it really is what I actually believe.”

How will @sama deal with a guaranteed-return, but immoral path laid out by the AI? E.g. "Here, assassinate X so you can mine this oil in the following ways." What if it isn't obvious that the "Golden Path" has serious flaws?

The only way I can think of is to run adversarial agentswho can simulate, but not act (i.e. under duress) against the mastermind to kill of "dark roads" that end in bad situations, and force the mastermind to obey them (somehow).
Yeah, but it’s an analogy. Perhaps the point is that our digital tenancies should have similar protection.

When I first looked at Phoenix ~18 months ago, I was a fairly fresh developer and couldn't figure out the separation of Views and Templates (coming from Rails).

I'm just now going through the Programming Phoenix 1.4 book and it's just been one 'aha' moment after the other, with the separation of logic and views being one of the most significant.

Well, in languages like Scheme and Lisp, expressions are returning a value. But they can also be control structures. For example IF forms are an expression, but IF is also a control structure:

As an Engineering firm, your job is to tell the customer, "I'm sorry, I cannot give you approval to do that."

I have moved entirely to a JAM stack i.e. static sites with JS to add functionality via apis. I’m happy with this because if my host dies or pisses me off I can very simply move to another host. And my choice is any host, from S3 to classic shared hosting to CDN edge providers to a raspberry pi hanging off my router.

It’s a lot cheaper, and cms using tools like Hugo or Jekyll is really a lot better than WP because let’s face it you’ll end up editing the theme pho files in Wordpress. I now use metalsmith for new sites instead of Hugo as it’s more hackable.

One thing thars a bit harder is Wordpress is nice for a techie working with a non techie content editor. I’m making do with markdown and github for that but a solution to that problem could be a indie hacker idea.
Yeah, I'm in the same boat. I mainly used Clojure, but have been doing more Racket lately. Mainly for short scripts, because it doesn't have the warm-up time of Clojure. Racket is a beautiful language, but some things in Clojure are just opinionated in a very nice way.

For example, the seq abstraction and the fact that most sequences and functions are lazy by default is really nice. It also makes more use of polymorphism, so you can e.g. call map on a hash-map, a vector or a lazy seq. Also the fact that maps and keywords act like functions is extremely convenient. Similarly, let is actually let* and binding forms allow destructuring. Racket has all this, but you have to remember to use e.g. match.

Racket macros are a work of art and I'm only just exploring them. However, the surface area is very large. In Clojure once you know the language and some of the standard library you can write macros. In Racket it seems there's a whole other language you have to learn. It's clear though that they're extremely powerful, so I probably just need to invest more time in it.

All in all my ideal language would be Racket with some of the conveniences and choices of Clojure. Gerbil is another lisp that looks interesting; maybe I'd steal some stuff from there too. Of course, Racket is extremely well suited to building languages, so I could actually build this ideal language if I wanted (and had the time and skill required).
And every second they think that way brings them a step closer to being replaced. Literally the only thing youtube has value-wise is its audience. Nothing they do can't be done with existing cloud networks and off-the-shelf open source software, or a bit of clever coding.

Furthermore by catering to advertisers wholesale, they are alienating their primary users and pissing everyone off. Eventually people will get sick of it and start a subscription-based video service where ads and sponsored content are banned.

But that isn't even necessary -- all it really takes is 3-4 of the major content creators to switch to another platform with a less draconian view on copyright and advertising policies and real change could happen.
I think much of that hardware is rebranded OEM anyways, which should be safe. It also isn’t clear China would blame google for this, or if its any worse than how google has pissed the Chinese government off in the past. Maybe they’ll just block google websites...wait no, they’ve done that already.
Yep, it's impossible to take journalism seriously when they use "bro-gramming" in an article. The journalists obviously have an axe to grind.
