I could have written the same comment. I bought a 486 PC after my Amiga 1200 but I've never really enjoyed the PC. Basically, I stopped playing video games and programming when I got the PC with Windows 95. What a boring machine compared to the Amiga. No joystick, no good programming environment (that I knew of), even the processor was hard to program compared to the 68000. Eventually I installed Linux and it got interesting again.

Edit: I also remember that so many demos and cracked games came from Norway and Sweden. I thought these guys were serious hackers, maybe because of the bad weather there!

Wow, thank you! And I really appreciate the offer to support the project. The plan is to roll out some premium integrations and themes in the coming months and see how that works out as a revenue model. Not against setting up a Paypal or Patreon, but would love to see if this can be productized (yet still super generous with what you can do for free). Anything come to mind as something extra you'd pay for?

No it does not
Former astronomer here! A lot of the comments here are about how this event occurred 26,000 years ago. I thought it would be useful to describe how we think about these things in astronomy.

Firstly, yes it is true that this happened 26,000 years ago! More specifically, the event happened 26,000 years ago in our reference frame. There are other reference frames in which this event occurred two minutes ago or 5 million years ago. But generally these are not useful reference frames since the Earth's reference frame is not too different from the reference frame with respect to the center of mass of the Galaxy (we are not moving all that fast compared to the speed of light).

That said, as astronomers we are not particularly interested in dating precisely when the event happened. 26,000 years is a very long time in human history, but it's not very long on astronomical timescales. Not very much has changed in the Galaxy over the past 26,000 years, so we don't gain much by dating it at the time the event occurred (with respect to the Earth's reference frame, of course). Furthermore, we wouldn't even know exactly when it happened even if we wanted to! Our clocks are very precise here on Earth, but our distance measurements to most celestial objects are very fuzzy, particularly the further away you get. Because of this, these sorts of events are always referred to with respect to the year they were observed on Earth. (Thus, the most recent nearby supernova is known as 1987A because it was the first supernova observed in 1987.)

This all changes when you are studying more distant objects though! For very distant galaxies, we are now seeing things when the universe was considerably younger and things were much different. Then it becomes important to keep the event's age in mind. For these objects we will actually refer to their redshift. The redshift can be measured relatively well, and is related to the distance and age of the event via the Hubble constant and the acceleration parameter. Measuring these parameters is tricky and is a whole subfield of their own, so we usually stick with redshift as it is more related to things we can easily measure.

A final note on the paper itself. These observations were taken at Keck on Mauna Kea. There has been a lot of controversy around the construction of the Thirty Meter Telescope, so the authors actually acknowledge indigenous Hawaiians specifically in their paper:

> The authors wish to recognize that the summit of Maunakea has always held a very significant cultural role for the indigenous Hawaiian community. We are most fortunate to have the opportunity to observe from this mountain.
The young fascists are usually just hardcore libertarian converts with ethnic ideals. Most right wing 2000s kids are just sick of progressive bullshit - particularly males, who form common talking points by shaking their heads at the world that doesn't want them to be males.
Are they always right? No. But my generation has a point and the conservative uprising has its roots in a genuine unrest.

Yeap. Emperor's new clothes / Not Invented Here / reinventing the wheel / new is "better" than old - churn / kitchen-sink design-by-committee (cough OpenSSL cough). This happens more and more. Instead of fixing existing infrastructure that has a well-established/proven history, throwing everything away and starting over like what came before never existed. And let's over-engineer it and add every possible feature that we'll never use! It's so new and broken, isn't it awesome!?!
It depends on why. Is it for learning purposes, or some other reason? Old school (but battle tested, not great patterns for learning though):

* One file (script) per route e.g. classic vanilla PHP.

* ASP.NET web forms - tries to make the web like a drag and drop windows forms application. Very nice for basic websites but doesn't scale to well if there are a lot of nested controls. Has this horrible concept called 'viewstate' where you send state about your controls in a hidden form field and post it back. This makes server side "on change" events possible for client side actions. It's horrible because Viewstate size grows quickly for complex forms, and it doesn't feel very web-like or Restful.

If you want to create a SPA, then React/Redux and Elm offer interesting patterns, but your server would still need to send data, and I can't think of anything better than an MC (no V!) type of framework for this.

The problem is that people may stop making sites that tell you the airspeed of an unladed swallow if Google's snippets mean that they never get any visitors on their site. Then Google search won't be able to help you because there aren't any sites to copy snippets from. As for the comparison to ad blockers, I think the situation is different. I doubt people install ad blockers just because they don't like ads; they don't like the slow websites, privacy, and security implications associated with targeted ads. Search snippets are punishing sites just because they aren't Google.
There is no difference. Regular debt is also discharged in bankruptcy.

The problem is that both heart attacks and panic attacks share a variety of symptoms and even just learning about certain symptoms of heart attacks (after our CFO died of one about a year back) has made those symptoms manifest during my panic attacks. The other thing that makes this difficult is that anxiety attacks, panic attacks, and heart attacks don't have consistent symptoms among all individuals.

So it's really a crap shoot. I had a lot of cardiac work done, so I can pretty confidently say for the next decade or so, barring go through any drastic lifestyle changes, that my heart isn't going to go out on me. But I also found ways to mentally explain all the symptoms I was experiencing and deescalate myself.

The problem is the business model breeds for this, and we end up replacing one abusive monopoly with another, until we can break that cycle.

For a time it seemed Free Software might ... free us ... from that, though as even that effort's biggest boosters (Eben Moglen, Bradley Kuhn, RMS) freely admit these days, we've been regressing of late, and at an increasing rate.

The bouncing ball is from the "Boing" demo, written in 1985 by two of the people who wrote much of the Amiga's OS. GLBoing is a clone of it from much later - at least 1992, what with that being the year the first version of OpenGL game out.

The first 28 lines of your first link are a comment block saying just that.
It really feels like the modern world should be able to expose dictatorships and their propaganda machines much easier than in the past. Is this an example of that truth coming out and destroying a corrupt state, or just the loss of oil revenues?

I always believed Tim O'Reilly's statements that sunlight is the best disinfectant but it seems like the propaganda machines are faster than the truth. Maybe "a lie is halfway around the world before the truth has its pants on" is more "truthful."

People need to keep this kind of thing in mind when major energy policy proposals like the Green New Deal rely on studies by the likes of M. Jacobsen (the guy who sued his scientific critics), whose 100% renewable scenarios all rely on at least 10x expansion of hydro power in the USA.
Expanding it, how long until my hand waving could cause a strong enough "butterfly effect" for an observable cosmic phenomenon to occur beyond our solar system?

My rough estimate says around 9 years, and 3 months.

The essence of chaos is that effects grow exponentially with time. For example with weather, errors in measurement lead to roughly an order of magnitude in errors in measurement every 3 days. Going from the scale of a single atom to the scale of a star is about a range of 10^60. At that rate of exponential growth means that in 180 days, which is 0.5 years a single atom out of place leads to a different outcome for things like solar flares.

Therefore a photon from your hand moves one atom on Alpha Centauri about 4.367 years later. A half-year later it causes the difference between a solar flare being there or not. Then 4.367 years later it comes back here. And the result is that in roughly 9 years and 3 months, one photon from your hand could have caused a visible change in another star.
> it would still be like blindly throwing a dart and hitting a bullseye 24,000 light years away in this case.

I liked this analogy, so I felt inspired to calculated the odds. Particularly: the percentage of the "sky" (celestial sphere) that is covered by the Earth from Sagittarius A* 's perspective. That's equal to the two dimensional projection of the Earth onto a 26000 ly sphere around Sagittarius A*.

cover% = π x (6371km)^2 / (4 x π x (26000 x 9.46 x 10^12 km)^2) x 100%
= 1.677 x 10^-26 %

I tried to put that number into "human terms", but the best I could come up with is it's the same as the width of a hair at Saturn's orbit, viewed from Earth.
Then it's spam farms as far as the eye can see, because they can enter a hundred times as much as everyone else.

It gets 'deconstructed', the body keeps any bits that are useful (minerals, various wanted compounds, etc), any rubbish (excess usable/unusable compounds, excess minerals) gets disposed of, the rest gets burned for energy and finally gets to release CO2 and water vapor into the atmosphere.

Think of a building being demolished. A lot of the material can be reused, a lot of it thrown away, and some of it sold to recoup some costs.
You made it partisan here:

>Most of the US disagrees with you on that one. They have since the polls predicted Hilary would win in a landslide.

The implication, given the context of the rest of your comment and the subthread (that the media always lies and is covering up the truth about the Epstein incident,) is that the media falsified the election poll results.

After all, it wouldn't be the first time election polls were wrong. That's been a thing since at least "Dewey Defeats Truman." You could have picked any number of incidents to illustrate media bias or the media getting something wrong, but you fixated on something directly out of the Trump playbook.

>That sort of thing shakes even the most steadfast authoritarian.

I dunno, it doesn't seem like we are moving toward liberalism. Everyone wants everyone else kicked off a twitter, everyone wants censorship. Tumblr bans porn, youtube bans anything people complain about, cloudflare doesn't want to do business with 8chan, etc etc. These are all incredibly illiberal and having nothing to do with true liberalism.

Liberalism, fundamentally, is about freedom (negative rights), both economic and social. The freedom to offend, to abhor, to hate, to disagree, to keep one's own money, to control one's own body, to decide himself how he should live his own life. This means legal drugs of all kinds, this means legal hate speech, legal death threats, legal sodomy, legal polygamy, legal bestiality, etc.

We are so far away from this world of liberalism and freedom that it makes me sad every time I think about it. In fact, I feel like in the past few decades we are getting farther away still.

It seems methanethiol is not the odorising component in natural gas. Methanethiol, CH_4S, is a putrid gas found in smelly cheese, poo, bad breath etc. "Most gas odorants utilized currently contain mixtures of mercaptans and sulfides, with t-butyl mercaptan as the main odor constituent in natural gas"[0]

T-butyl mercaptan (tert-butylthiol) is (CH_3)_3CSH.

As for "having their speech" - they already have it but nobody has to help them spread it.

It's one thing to "not spread" something. It's another thing entirely when there are people who want information, even want to pay for it, and big companies get in the way to push their own agenda. It's not just the most radical segments this applies to, but lots of normal people nearer to the center. Also, it's really something that big companies do this, all the while claiming they're "platforms" not "publishers."
If they can get root access (which they’d need to modify SSH) via a hole in some other package, it’s game over whether you have SSH turned on or not; they could turn it on themselves, or install it if it isn’t installed, or install a backdoor running over some other protocol instead.

A friend applied this sort of thinking to teaching them to not run in the road. She took the kids to look at roadkill and told them when they asked what it is, she said that's what happens when an animal is in the road and gets hit by a car.

They were careful around the road without shouting or force.

This is how every boundary violation could be taught. "Here's this thing. Here's what happened to it and here are the effects. Any questions?" (Herein: "the pattern")

I'm now realizing this is maybe why we had the silly "This is your brain. This is your brain on drugs. Any questions?" campaign.

Yeah...and let's do it live, with the goal of converting the entire legal code and precedents into something people can actually use.

We could also apply "the pattern" to universal life lessons, like solidarity > charity, coevolution > coexistence, mutualism > competition, and what the universal needs for thriving are.
Which part of that is fraud?
