Vagueness in law isn't a good thing. It leads to people randomly losing everything, even if they made a good faith attempt to follow the "spirit" of the law (whatever that actually is), for no better reason than lazy or incompetent law making. After all, lawmakers can easily update or change laws to reflect changing circumstances - they just prefer not to because regulating entirely new areas of life makes them feel better than the relatively boring work of updating existing laws.

Population didn’t stabilise, anywhere, ever. Nothing “worked” for Europe. Most of Eastern Europe is losing population to emigration. If you look at breeding populations rather than geographies you see some populations growing and others shrinking. You don’t see steady states.

The population behaviour of the British and that of descendants of those resident in Britain in 1900 are not the same thing. Focusing on nations obscures that fact.
All of my grandparents come from big families. My grandmother on my father's side comes from a family of 12 children.

Yet my grandmother only had 4 children and my father only 2, and now I only have 1.

This is an anecdote, but I don't think heritabiliy has anything to do with it.

Large families simply happen due to poverty. When poor, you want more children because there's strength in numbers. Plus the women are staying home and can afford to have children.

Nowadays access to contraceptives is common and in Europe for example it's not feasible to have a lot of children due to costs (property, education, women having to eventually quit their job, etc).

Anyway, I think the evolution of poverty is a much greater predictor of population growth than anything else.

I see these areas basically as factories, albeit we do have the kind of food security our ancestors could only dream of. Would be fantastic to see more forested areas and associated 're-wilding' projects. Could be hugely beneficial in so many ways if only people can take the long view.
Our solution to student loans and graduate unemployment
Our idea is an e-learning website linked to a freelancing website. Users take courses uploaded by instructors in the e-learning part of the website and apply what they learn in the real world by completing tasks for companies in the freelancing part of the website.

You can only apply for a task if you have completed its required courses, ensuring that you have the knowledge required to complete the task. In return, each task should have a minimum pay to ensure that users are not underpaid and have a steady source of income.

The aim of this idea is that people no longer have to pay expensive student loans to learn job related skills and that they can find jobs more easily as they can apply for any task as long as they have completed its required courses.

We are still in the pre-launch stage and we would encourage you to sign up now if you’re interested so that we can convince instructors and companies to post courses and tasks on our site, allowing us to launch the site faster for you to use it.

Also, feel free to suggest any ways to improve our app.
> If you live in a city it's because you want to. Noone forces you to get an excruciating job for little money in the concrete jungle, it's a choice you made.

Respectfully, I disagree. It may be a choice somebody made at one point in time, but for the poor it's not a decision they have the luxury to fix. Some can't afford to take a day or several off of work to move, or even to look for somewhere else to live and another job, or they don't put food on the table. Even if they can, without time and money, and a good job, nobody is going to rent a home to them outside of the big city.

Cities like London make it extremely difficult for these people to live, but at the same time make it possible, and even then it's in conditions most would be unhappy to live in, all because someone will give them a space in a room for cash without any credit checks or all of the red-tape that would be required anywhere more laid back; things are possible in the city purely because of volume, and rules are relaxed to keep the pace.

Getting out of being poor in a country with an economy like ours is difficult. Having space to grow food is no good if nobody will let you use it, or if you work such long hours you don't have the time to do it, what about having the energy to do it? poorer people tend to work more physically demanding jobs.

I've seen your textbook system work, in less developed countries where people have the luxury of time and space because their cost of living isn't an overbearing demand and specialisation is lower.

You can't argue we're specialised, then at the same time say everyone should grow their own food, that's the farmer's job.

I'm not sure what the solution is, but finding a way as a society to take some of the strain off of people who are struggling just to feed themselves is a good start.
I mostly like law and order, but:

1) Laws are supposed to be precise. If there was a law against "stirring shit and troublemaking" as the OP suggests, it would be applied mostly against those who are out of favor.

2) Laws presume that the accused person is innocent and give them a say in defense. Good luck with that if you're accused of a code of conduct violation.
I couldn't even remember the offensive definition when I read the title. I only associate the name with the program. Language can mean whatever we want it to, and by admission that it's offensive, you make it offensive. Should a definition change in the future that makes "hacker" a negative word, should this social platform change their name? Or could we simply say that it has a different definition to us? Is changing the name of a product really just superficial, if the name is the primary way people recognize it is safe to use?

Its not about the looks. It significantly decreases top speed and fuel efficiency. https://www.simarine.net/protection-ships-hulls-fouling-corr...:

”The fouling of the vessel is the main reason for the increase in the roughness of the part of the vessel below sea level and therefore the increase in hull frictional resistance as it moves through water. As a result fuel consumption increases and vessel speed decreases. The slime (bio film – silt) on the submerged part of the vessel is responsible for an increase in vessel drag of approximately 2%. Seaweed increases the vessel drag by 10% and mussels by up to 40%. Increase in drag will directly impact on enhanced fuel consumption and significantly increased harmful gas emissions.”
This also means that banning separate IP's is now infeasible. Not that it's the right way to go about things anyway, but a ton of sites rely on it

> How do you actually distinguish between a tool-assisted human and a human-assisted tool? What's the test and where is that written in the legislation?

That will probably be distinguished between by a judge looking at all the facts that apply to a specific case, and making up a decision. Details such as these are the reason why there's a justice system with actual humans in it and not just some software bot calling shots by following if-then-else statements written in law documents.
Yes, over hundreds of years. I have a few acres of land and there's several trees on ~.5 acres. There's some young trees in the ground spreading from the original half acre that got there naturally. They're a good 4-5 feet from the original tree.

It'll take a while to get the rest forested if I wait, though squirrels and birds moving seeds could help. Part of it is that trees can make the area better for other trees; the conifers stop grass from growing under them, which is good since the grass can be as tall as I am and block out light.
This is ridiculous.

The replacement fertility rate to maintain population before modern medicine could be closer to ten than two not so long ago.

War, famine, disease, accidents, and infant mortality made it so surviving until you were old enough to start having your own children was rare and women were often pregnant or nursing continuously as long as they were fertile.

The premise of heritable fertility driving population and reproduction rates in humans is really far off. We're not having litters of kittens.

If it were true fertility rates could not possibly have dropped so far in so few generations after modern medicine and the insane reduction in violent death rates seen in the last thousand years.
Of all the bugs you've ever dealt with in programs in general, what fraction of them of them were infinite loops?

For me I'd guess maybe... 0.1%? It's definitely under 1%.

Given that, it makes no sense to me that I'd want to make myself jump through hoops to express some basic coding patterns [1], just to rule out that single class of bugs. It seems like a solution in search of a problem.

So you're comparing different things, because these countries count homelessness differently.

> There is no internationally agreed definition of homelessness. Therefore, this indicator presents a collection of available statistics on homelessness in OECD and EU countries in line with definitions used in national surveys (comparability issues on the data are discussed below). Some countries have different official definitions of homeless: they may use a definition for the purpose of data collection but use another one or several definitions for policy purposes, i.e. in the framework of policy measures aimed at tackling homelessness. In this indicator we refer only to the statistical definition used for data collection purposes.

[...]

> Definitional differences drive variations in the reported incidence of homelessness across countries and hamper international comparisons and the understanding real differences in homelessness rates and risks. Besides definitional differences, there are a number of flaws in the scope and methods of data collection which might affect measuring the real extent of homelessness. For instance, administrative data can provide good data on the users of homeless services but they leave out people who are not in contact with services providers or local authorities. Furthermore, geographical coverage of data collection often does not include the whole national territory but only municipalities with a certain number of inhabitants. A full description of methodological issues in homelessness data collection is beyond the scope of this indicator but more in-depth information can be found in Busch-Geertsema et al.,2014, and OECD, 2015.
You can still do that, though. In Dhall you may import things remotely as you develop and then tell Dhall to pre-fetch the result, you can commit that and it will not access anything.

You may also just download any imports yourself and source them locally.

Additionally Dhall supports import fallbacks, for example you may try first a remote import, and if it fails it will look for another place, which I’ve could be remote or local. This is a good strategy for developing locally and then committing imports for production use.

You can also, of course, host the files in your local network.

Some part of the population is always going to use deception and weakness of others.

I don't think there is a "general fix". You just have to constantly show them where the boundaries are and the cost of crossing them.

Taking advantage of the expectation, that a general fix is possible, is what gets Charlatans and Panderers into power.

That said, despite the fact that it has been easier to take advantage of the weaknesses in the population faster and at scales never before, (imagine a shark, overnight, growing more efficient at hunting/doubling its kill count and hunting grounds, and that trait spreading to all sharks by the next day) that same pace causes natural born predators to bump into each other more, clashing more frequently, expending more resources/energy in empire defense.

There is no free lunch, even to the mindlessly ambitious douchebags of society. They put up an appearance that there is.
And then keep on planting trillions more because we keep digging up coal and oil?

It would probably be better to cover 1-3% of our land and coastal areas with solar panels and wind turbines.
I guess the point is that these systems have to be retrofitted to existing ships. The ship owners don't see the benefit - it costs them to do the modification - and the ship renters don't see the benefit, because ultimately the owner passes on the modification costs to the renter, displacing the fuel cost savings.

Whats needed is for regulation to come in and say 'ships that have these systems pay less to dock in port' or whatever. But, the technology has to be proven to reduce costs and carbon footprint - so someone needs to make an investment to prove this works before governments will get behind it.
You can make backups. Ripping to mp3 to back something up is probably allowed. But most people ripping to mp3 are not backing up their CDs, they're format-shifting, and format-shifting is currently not allowed.

I have no proof, by my gut feeling is that success in business is generally a concept assholes are better adapted for.

The reason I say this is that most companies that we consider "successful" are in my experience mostly being assholes to their customers. Since a company doesn't have an independent personality of its own, I imagine that such behavior must come from the people at the top of the food chain at those places, or at least the people very high in that chain.
Dynamic programming: Predicting secondary structures of RNA folding
"So instead of expanding outwards, the cities just became a lot denser, and economics forced up the price up of the land because the land potential is so high"

But then, if the land was so much more expensive in the city, people would just move to the outskirts where land is so much cheaper. Land is always going to be more valuable in the middle of a city so it makes sense to make best use of it.

What you suggest is a recipe for urban sprawl.

Regardless of who likes the current keyboard, there is a large reliability issue. I don’t mind the small travel but I have had to constantly air duster my keyboard and finally completely replace it (through apple) because the e key would sometimes register nothing and sometimes register twice - that’s not a subjective keyboard taste thing, that’s just a reliability problem I have never had with any other keyboard, certainly not in under just 8 months of use.
Sorry, I didn't make the best choice of words. With "stabilized" I really meant "stopped growing". And indeed, in practice this has resulted into shrinking, not a steady state.
Have you ever done any work in this area? Because it sounds like you know what you’re talking about, except it’s all nonsense.

Zip format can be de/compressed progressively, which is one reason why it’s nice for HTTP transport encoding. The file format is decompressed one record at a time and many or most libraries can give you this as a stream, so it never has to hit disk or be “sent to dev/null”.

If you take responsibility for streaming the records to disk (trivial), then you can check the canonical path before writing, and any other filesystem sanity tests you want to do.

At what stage does a private company need to become a public service? There's examples of this happening throughout the ages where private companies like fire fighters, telephone, etc went from being private to public, and sometimes back to private.
I really hate this stuff. The article starts out with a paragraph of complete nonsense:

"When you ask experts how bots influence politics—that is, what specifically these bits of computer code that purport to be human can accomplish during an election—they will give you a list: bots can smear the opposition through personal attacks; they can exaggerate voters’ fears and anger by repeating short simple slogans; they can overstate popularity; they can derail conversations and draw attention to symbolic and ultimately meaningless ideas; they can spread false narratives."

Since when can bots "smear the opposition through personal attacks"? Bots that post the same stuff written by humans over and over have existed for years and are easily filtered out by spam filters - bulk spam doesn't change people's politics anyway so in practice such bots are always advertising commercial products. Bots that constantly invent new ways to smear the opposition don't yet exist, not even in the lab.

This whole story is asserting that there are programs routinely running around the internet indistinguishable from humans, making points so excellent they successfully persuade people to switch their political affiliation, which is simply false.

In the article the word "experts" is a hyperlink. I was very curious what kind of bot expert might believe these fantasies. To my total lack of surprise the link goes to a single "expert" who in fact knows nothing about AI, bots or technology in general - they're a political flak who worked for the Obama campaign and studied a PhD in "communication".

This sort of manipulative deception is exactly why so many people no longer trust the media. The New Yorker runs an article that starts by asserting a fantasy as expert-supported fact, and then cites a member of the Obama campaign who went into social science academia (i.e. a field that systematically 'discovers' things that are false), and who has no tech background or indeed any evidence of their thesis whatsoever.

My experience has been that actual experts in bots are never approached for this sort of story.

Can you give a couple of examples of the towns that have such legislation and low housing prices, despite having strong demand to live there?
> It may seem “unfair” to toy with the idea of losing the assholes, particularly the unintentional assholes. Since they “don’t know better” it seems almost cruel to let them go simply because they’re making everyone around them miserable, and it somehow feels like a smaller request to have 50 people tolerate one asshole’s behavior than to demand one asshole figure out how to not alienate everyone with whom they interact. Frankly, I think you’d be doing an asshole a favor by losing them, nothing is a better teacher than failure.

So…..

Once you have successfully labelled someone, you should actively fight any tendency towards empathy with them. Don’t bother worrying about whether their behaviour was intentional. Just kick them out. It’s for their own good.

At this point, I’m labelling the author an asshole.
Which can be considered a concession of failure for the idea of "law-as-code", because apparently when the going gets tough, that concept needs to fall back to good old "law-by-humans" in order to continue being relevant and accepted by people. As a system that should not ever be in need of any fallback, that spells fundamental defeat.

Some drivers indeed use the existence of such lanes as extra fuel for their harassment, which sucks: Very often these lanes are objectively dangerous for cyclists because they are way easier to be "overlooked" at intersections.

While driving culture generally is terrible in Germany, in my opinion, with people driving way to aggressively, the situation may be improving gradually. The idea of having to keep some distance when passing cyclists seems to have reached some drivers. (From court rulings 1.5 meters is the absolute minimum)
