Responsibility for justice. Perhaps legally nothing will ever happen, but without moral justice, "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it". The opinions and freedoms of the Chinese in 1842 were the same as Hong Kong's are now: to remain as they were and not become part of a different nation. So if you believe that Hong Kong deserves independence now, then you need to also believe that it deserved remaining Chinese then.

I'm not an apologist for China. For example I strongly believe in the independence of Taiwan, they've clearly demonstrated through their own efforts that they are different to the mainland. They didn't have that sentiment force upon them by guns from a foreign military might.

Let me share my favourite Spotify playlist, 257 hours of psytrance and derivative genres: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/71tSLVZo0Bqokw22opuG15?si=...

Just enable shuffle and you'll have enough psy for years :-)
Electronic music "sub-genres" are usually BS, in my experience most producers don't go "ok, today I'm going to make some fullon Israeli south-Goa psytrance" (or retroactively label their music like this). It's just that there's a small section of fans who devote their time to obsessively trying to categorize and label every single track, making up new genres and sub-genres as they go.

Drum'n'bass has the same issue... while there are definitely differences between dnb tracks, it's not like you can't play a perfectly great set of dnb with whatever "sub-genres" mixed together. Which in my mind means the notion of the "sub-genres" is BS in the first place.

So who else just returned from Mo:Dem and had a laugh about psytrance being on hackernews?
Eh, your memory isn't as wrong as you may think. The C=64 was released during the Apple II+/Apple IIe era, and frankly, both of those machines were barely improvements. To give you an idea, the biggest improvement offered by the IIe was... support for lower-case characters.

The Commodores genuinely were something special for the era.

Misleading headline. It’s only censoring the suggested title of the note, not any actual content. Similar to how autocorrect does not suggest swear words either. Imagine the outrage from a false positive swear suggestion when a child is writing a note about ducking.
Many of the CERN researchers are pretty deep into C++.

It was there that I got my template meta-programming baptism, back in 2002, when gcc was still trying to cope with template heavy code.

And curiously, also where I got my first safety heavy code reviews of C++ best practices.
Why is the straw inherently a problem though? If properly exposed of, there's no issue with them. People who are buying expensive metal straws wouldn't just throw them out in nature anyway, so I'm not seeing how those things solve any problems. Sure, a ban, like you mentioned would keep assholes from littering, so that would help independently.

Edit: Did some googling, and this article sums up my concern nicely:

"Banning straws may confer 'moral license' – allowing companies and their customers to feel they have done their part. The crucial challenge is to ensure that these bans are just a first step."

Yeah, having a immutable input key has always seemed real scary to me. Text/numbers has always seemed the best to me but if you really want something quicker and more natural for humans to do than writing, why not go for something like a pose or hand gesture. That can be easily changed, though I am not sure how many different versions there are of it. Spell out something in sign language?

You make it 'cloudy' by baking all your features in a closed and proprietary API on your premises. That's great for the company as it provides significant leverage against external competitors AND naughty customers. Bans can be instilled by "block user and hardware_id".

Of course, when that API goes away, so does utilizing any of that hardware. And what does that mean? Your $X00 device is now worthy of a doorstop or a space-filling-device in the trash.

>"instead of saving a hash of the fingerprint (that can’t be reverse-engineered) they are saving people’s actual fingerprints that can be copied for malicious purposes."

It's almost impossible to use hashes for fingerprints with COTS scanners. You use templates which in most cases, if left in the open, can be used to reverse engineer and get a fingerprint to match that template. Though it does not have to be the original one.
The thing is, those jobs do not provide serious long term benefits for humanity. Large infrastructure projects, like the ones that major governments can green light (for example, space travel, quality parks services, education etc) do. It also helps even the playing field so that poorer people are less likely to be disenfranchised. A noble goal in itself but it also probably helps reduce the likelihood of an end-of-world scenario.

Keeping hundreds of people working on insurance projects for the super-rich is not the best allocation of funds, and we have the power to change that allocation.

This is fascinating - especially the talks about the advantages of using COTS electronics.

Once upon a time, the latest and greatest in electronics was produced by military, scientific, and spaceflight applications, with commercial uses being spinoffs that were often up to a decade behind. Now the situation is reversed; consumer electronics are where the innovation is happening, and military/space systems are finding ways to repurpose that technology.
Because djs like to mix songs continuously in a way that it sounds like one song is flowing seamlessly into the next. It only takes subtle differences before a transition throws you right out of the moment. It’s possible to mix these subgenres together but you have to do a lot of work to find songs in different genres that sound similar enough to make a smooth transition.

Djs don’t buy all one sub genre, generally, but they do tend to focus on a few of them and that’s why the labels and record stores try and cater to what djs are looking for.
Not a bad article, but I still want to bring something up that I find problematic with a lot of communication advice.

How to actually act on it in a real situation? How do you remember and apply all these rules when you feel like the timing is off, when you're talking to the person who you know only works here because of weird circumstances and cares more about the opinion of the coworker next to them who always mocks corporate lingo? How do you deliver your delicate feedback in a situation where you both know you own the other guy? This stuff is IMO the thing that seperates the really good talkers from the rest of us - and I was never really able to catch up with such articles who seem to assume a limited number of conditions to adhere to; like an "advice giving robot" to steal their phrase. How do you improve in being an advice giving human?
TCQ – An app for organizing complex discussions
This is why I love techno festivals and parties. I also like the music (and I'm a hobbyist producer myself) but the sheer freedom you have for a whole festival or even evening/weekend is liberating, is a escape from reality. And the hypnotic sound also gets me to other places, even when sober.

P.S.: and by "techno" I mean the genre of EDM called techno, starting in Detroit in late 80s/early 90s and spreading through Europe by the UK, Belgium, Netherlands and Germany, not the "general techno" that is used in US to mean any kind of electronic dance music.

One can argue that owning a car saves you from the expense of buying a car. After your asset expires you have another $10k bill at the end. If your car is a super reliable prius and lasts twice as long as your old car then it may haved saved you money by reducing your transportation expenses.

Why did you select the ugliest velomobile to illustrate your point???

I suppose what you're imagining is somewhere between a bike and a car, one step below a Kei car type concept. Yes it does have advantages, you are starting to lose advantages that a bike has, and introduce disadvantages that a car has, so it isn't a free lunch. I had the idea for a speed limited car (30mph ish) some time ago, you could radically reduce weight etc, but the problem is the car crashing into you isn't going to be speed or weight limited, you also do nothing to address the issues of space that cars take up.

Assuming these people 10000 lightyears away from the black hole are also on a planet, their reference frame is almost the same as ours - the relative speed of different planets is very small compared to the speed of light. So they'll agree on when 24000BC is.
one big reason for the problems with plastic recycling is the fact that producing companies do want to "protect" their "intellectual property" and do not provide a list of ingredients.

That has to do with the additives, not the base --- and you are correct that separating these otherwise contaminants from the base material is important for recycling. On the other hand, everyone knows what the base materials for Teflon and polyethylene are, for example.
Any single-use non-degradable object is an issue. It's not as much about throwing individual straws out in nature, but loads of bars/restaurants/cafes, each throwing out hundreds of them a day, every day. Next, we can grab another single-use plastic thing...
Well yes, if you don't know any of the artists on there then you don't listen to psytrance obviously.

This is a modern guide to current genres and almost all tracks on it are released after 2010 (yes even the Goa tracks are recent, its not dead).

This is not a history of psytrance guide, if it was it would be huge.

BTW Sphongle definitely isn't psytrance, and Infected Mushroom isn't well regarded in the underground.

It's always fun when my old comments get dug up...

Actually recently I've started thinking about what it would take to create a toolchain to do the minimum to provide the pieces of AROS (for the uninitiated: AmigaOS "reimplementation" though it goes beyond the original in some respects) that might make sense on Linux and provide a compatibility layer to make it work.

AROS itself can run hosted on Linux, but not integrated well with Linux apps, but quite a lot of AROS relies on relatively small subsets of the AmigaOS API, and it'd be a fun experiment to e.g. bring data types to Linux, possibly combined with a fuse filesystem as a fallback to do on the fly conversions for apps with no support.

I'd love to see if some of those things could gain traction if suitably modernized.

Why use our precious profits when people will indeed pay higher prices to visit the parks? Shareholders don't like spending money, even when they have it.

> So having one "less safe" engine still means everything is much much safer than the drive to the airport.

That's a statement that I'd be happy to see the numerical support for. To hold the number of fatalities of people driving to the airport in total needs to exceed the number of fatalities as a result of airplanes crashing after one engine already failed on a relative scale, related to the number of people on board those aircraft that had one engine fail.

Keep in mind that the chances for messing stuff up increase once one engine is out simply because all your eggs are in a single basket.

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2015/jul/02/transasia-cras...

This puts the counter at 43 against. I'm sure that we can dig up other examples. I think one engine out is a sufficient change of the underlying stats that the per-passenger mile quote might no longer be valid.

Of course the other input required is how many planes have single engine failures.
That's their reasoning. Which doesn't mean at all that he's not right. In case of doubt read the book.

The suggestions are interesting, and probably correct. The one thing that, as a parent, I find hard to handle is to 'not give in' after a while if my children complain a lot. Most of us have busy lives, with both parents working, and sometimes I need some 'free time' to just relax and decompress.

All those suggestions are good: but does the society we're creating make it feasible to follow them?
Why? The model and serial number are visible outside.
I like this way of thinking.

I started using Linux as a better and free system than win95, and only after a while thought about the bigger software freedom issues. Before linux, microsoft was just a random company for me. I am not alone in this respect. And look how far open source has come.

In the same way, straw banning can be a 'gateway drug' to environmental awareness. You've done your bit. So you acknowledged there was something to do. Then you dont want that small bit to be meaningless, so you do a tiny bit more All the while advocating to other people this is a worthy cause. Then you find how bigcorps are flagrantly violating the good cause. Of course this cant be right. And drip by drip you wear down a mountain.
