This is another false protection of women. In the same places where women need to wear makeup for credibility, men have to wear suits which are also quite uncomfortable for biking. These places do not have any bike disadvantage for women compared to men.

In other jobs (like software engineer or cashier) nobody really cares if woman wears makeup or not (makeup may help, but a lot of other inconvenient things can help men too).

The pressure against women is imaginary in context of biking availability.

Also there’s no need to try to bring the issue of discrimination in completely unrelated discussions.
Furthermore there may be no actors at all. CGI CP is still considered CP by our despicable government.

After reading your comment i wanted to see for myself how its done on Debian or Ubuntu and realized there are no official packages of Webmin for these distros. So my assumption that most people got a package build from the unmodified source might have been wrong as a whole and my comment is indeed misleading on multiple levels. Thanks for clarifying.
Wrong information is worse than no information. If the source is not known or if you don't want to spend the time to find it, just say "unknown" or "as someone said"
Those disclaimers are legally meaningless. They have no teeth. Just like those signs on dump trucks that say “Stay back 500ft”.
> The best depth before you hit the knee in the curve is undergraduate-level textbooks.

That matches my experience as well. Having graduated from two fields at university, the most foundational knowledge came in the first two years. The third one is a deepening of the first two but can be skipped if only basis are needed. Then master degree is just playing with higher level concepts and linguo.

What they learned is that solving problems with debt is bad. So they try to not have debt by saving a lot. The fact they do it with the same fiat currency system is another matter. But that history lesson is one the OP seems to be ignorant of.
It is also the only way for an xlib program to survive losing its connection to the X server. xlib will let you register a callback to handle loss of connection with XSetIOErrorHandler, but unconditionally calls exit() after your callback returns. Which is extremely anti-social behavior for a library, but that is what it does.

So the solution is to setjmp before each call to an X function that might notice the connection is closed, and longjmp out of the error callback. Ugly, but it works.

These days, you should really just use XCB, or even Wayland.
I'm curious to know why you decided to enable read receipts.
I'd say a good part has passed its limit and the results we see are proof of that. To stick with laundry, of all the brands seen in a supermarket, they are all made by just two multinationals. Washing isn't better or easier than when I lived with my first partner, in our first flat in the eighties. I can't ever remember anyone in all that time expressing a wish for better detergents, or struggling to get things clean enough. They've worked, essentially perfectly - or at least well enough, for nearly the whole time since WW2, maybe 50s or 60s on.

Washing machines, thanks to chasing low water and temperatures, have got markedly worse on the other hand. Nowadays overfilling a machine, even slightly, results in the wash deteriorating - machines didn't used to care in the slightest about that. Keep packing stuff in while it still fits and get perfect results. I have to wonder how many extra "eco" loads are run in order to wash the same household's weekly wash with a modern machine compared to an older, "wasteful" one. I wonder if per lb of washing if it is actually more wasteful. It lasts perhaps 10%-20% of the life of a machine made in the 70s or 80s. How does that impact per wash?

We've had a lot of fake brands and competition just to move balance in the markets from 50:50 to 51:49. More complexity, higher pricing, less competition and less for the consumer. Billions advertising these fake innovations to achieve, well, nothing but a hair's movement in favour of P&G or not. Back handed arrangements in the way supermarkets sell premium shelf spots, end of aisle displays and supplier priority again takes away from real competition and just leaves the appearance of it.

The simple soap, from the decades old small maker, becomes harder and harder to find despite working just as well, being popular, and generating perhaps 1% of the waste of a year's bottles of shower or hand gels. Eventually it disappears because of Tesco/Walmart and P&G/Unilver shelf selling arrangements not because it was wasn't selling, crap or superseded.

Car manufacture still has dozens (just) of manufacturers. There is still real competition and differentiation, despite no end of emissions and safety legislation.

Most categories today are like detergents, selling us fake innovation, differentiation and disruption and forcing us to more profitable but profligate and wasteful ways, not like cars where there actually still some real choices. Even down to the commodities like vegetables - we're sold a 1kg bag, rather than loose buying just the few we might need for a week, there's infinitely fewer varieties but so many more (fake) options. We're all markedly worse off as a result.
SI measures radiation in decay events per second. The rate is important because we mostly worry about decay product exposure during our lifetimes, or maybe how long a mass must be contained until it stops being an acute risk to our species, rather than the grand total of decay over astronomical time scales.

The Roman empire was, as you say, an empire. Archimedes spoke, read, wrote, and taught in Greek. He wore a beard, which was unfashionable in Rome. His neighbors, friends, and family all considered themselves Greek. There was a myriad of other cultures within Rome's borders with completely different societies.

If a Puerto Rican living in Puerto Rico invented something, we'd call it a Puerto Rican invention. If a European immigrated to the US, integrated themselves into the culture by learning English, adopting American cultural norms, and taking the oath of citizenship, we'd call that an American invention, despite the fact that both of them carry a passport that says "United States of America" on it.
Starred.

If I ever try Firebase it will be nice to have this.

Code looks nice! Except like sibling commenter I'm not sure what good typing/programming would look like if doing an ORM in TS.

It's my first time hearing about Firestore by the way. My understanding is Firebase has a real time store, but Firestore is a different tool, similar to MongoDB?

I have five rotary dial phones (including a rotary wall phone) that I use in my home. All but one are Model 302s or 5302s. I inherited all but one of them. One was my grandmother's that she undoubtedly paid for at least ten times over with her monthly rental fee.

The sound quality is still superior to newer phones. Occasionally some younger person will use one of them out of curiosity and will be amazed by how much more sonic detail comes through the receiver compared to their cell phone.

The end quote should be updated to, "Today, it's unusual to see a landline still in use. There is a generation growing up which has never made a phone call on a landline telephone."
Nothing. First it will never happen and second, why would China even care? They don't.

His arguments should be qualification enough. Of course, one's arguments are often not qualification enough to be listened to, but publication in the New York Times adds some weight on that side -- they lend him credibility, and if his arguments are well received he pays it back, and if they aren't he defaults and both he and they are poorer for it.
The parent said: "seems everyone I talk to" and "have started looking at beef as something to be indulged in only on occasion". Not that people weren't still eating the same amount or that they didn't still eat red meat on social occasions to fit in (wait, more signalling!).

My dispute is with the idea that people only take an action to signal and not because they personally care.

I think @Profquail explained everything so well. So I only have to add some pieces of information about Kei. Kei rewriting rules are used to transform (well-typed) data into other (well-typed) data basically (in that case to avoid non-confluent system Kei allows only static symbols transformations), thus it enables Kei creates others logic systems. This matters because of two points. First, proofs construed in a different proof assistant can be export to Kei. Second, I have the expressiveness to lead with others type inference rules, although without the needless of learning a new language.

Is it much different today than when we were ostracized as kids for not wearing abercrombie or having a razr? Teenagers have never not been materialistic and vain. They have nothing truly significant going on in their life to focus on yet, so they pick each other apart to stratify themselves.

At the reunion in 20 years, these people will be much more interested in who became the oncologist instead of who wore gucci slides in geometry and currently folds jeans at the gap.

Lack of support infrastructure. Traditional startups being so common have a large market of services, grants, financing, lawyers geared towards them. More of an uphill battle for a co-op. I think even licensing can be an issue in some areas.

Is this really a hypnosis or just some primal defense system that kicks in, like "snake ahead, freeze". I had a pet python and I know for a fact that snakes will only eat moving food, if you just leave a dead mouse snake will not touch it (same as frogs and many other lizards and amphibians). Pray needs to move to attract the interest. So if you don't want to get eaten by a snake the perfect defense is exactly this, don't move a muscle, stand very still. And many animals have "hard-wired" defense against snakes, for instance like cats get scared by cucumbers and other snake like shapes, although they never seen a snake in their life. Just a wild theory of course, but it might be that?
> This is wrong, and a cursory investigation of Marx's late works would show that.

The focus here is on Lenin and his progeny, particularly Stalin. Marx claimed the discovery of objective laws of reality through generous application of the Hegelian world-spirit concept[1]. The Bolsheviks expanded Marx's ideas.

The expansion was thus: the Party is the agent of the Proletariat. The liberation of Proletariat is the ultimate end of History. The laws of History dictate that this is so. But if there are objective laws of history, someone must explain what those laws are and act on them: this is the Party. And if the Party observes such laws, then the concept of democracy or debate within the Party is nonsensical, so the Party must follow the doctrinal rulings of the Politburo. But it also follows that debate or democracy within the Politburo is also nonsensical, therefore, only one leader may give meaning, purpose and weight to the objective laws of history.

Leninism laid the ideological rails that Stalin used to railroad Russia straight to hell. Marx's work was not sufficient, but it was necessary.

[1] There is a view that Marx's ideas were purely economical in nature. I don't think this holds up. He was a philosopher first and an economist second. The concept of alienation for example is not just about effort or property, it is a quasi-mystical notion of a fundamental schism of persons, from themselves and from each other.
Probably 95% of followers on large accounts are bots. And I can tell you of my friends who follow models on instagram, they sure as hell aren't looking at the product placement.
Yes but putting undue burden on a small time organizers of a conference is kind of ridiculous. They do these things on a budget and on personal time outside their normal jobs. Companies and professional societies are far better suited to trying to promote diversity at all parts of the pipeline.

All this does is kill any event that isn't run by them and negatively effects freedom in the industry.
I have an admittedly crazy thing I do occasionally. I do 5 minute pomodoros. So it's 5 minutes of writing code followed by 1 minute of reflection. In that one minute, I'll write down what I did in the last 5 minutes (it takes about 10 seconds to write since it isn't much ;-). I'll also add a few TODOs that I'm hoping to do, or break down ones I've already got.

Now, 5 minutes seems an impossibly small amount of time, and admittedly this is a difficult technique. It's also very tiring (I can't do it day after day), but once you get good at it, it's surprising what you can get done in 5 minutes. You don't necessarily need to have written code -- just made some progress towards understanding something, etc.

Later, I'll go over my notes. I've got everything annotated every 5 minutes which means that it's ripe for thinking about how I can improve. Did I make a wrong turn somewhere that wasted me time? Was there a way I could have detected that? Did I decide not to do something test first when it would have been better to do so? Etc, etc.

I should point out that while I have a timer, I only use it as a suggestion -- I don't have any notifications for instance. It's just that if I glance down and notice my timer has gone (or is close), then I wrap up what I'm doing to get to the reflection stage. Similarly, if I'm writing TODOs and it's being productive, I don't mind doing it for 5 minutes or so. Finally, if I run into something really puzzling, then I just turn off the timer. Some problems need thinking time (though I have found that having only a few minutes to make progress often forces me to try something in order to get more information and that will crack the nut -- indeed, far more often than I would have ever suspected).

It's the only tool I've found that really helps me improve my technique. The other pretty cool thing about it is that I've found that this log helps me get in and out of the zone extremely quickly. Even if I've put it down overnight, I'm right back into it within a minute or so.

I am measurably much more productive with this method (like 2 or 3 times more productive), which surprised me initially (I thought I would be much less productive). The real downside is that it's draining. I can't keep it up for more than a couple of days at a time.

Anyway, very dissimilar to what you were talking about, but I highly recommend it for those interested understanding what they are doing and how to improve.
Instagram is the only social network that works for me. Photos are exactly what I want to see when I open the app (which I do once or twice a week). I follow only people I know personally and I don't follow hashtags or brands.

The percentage of ads is going up and that bothers me. If I could pay a reasonable fee (maybe $5 / month) to get rid of them, I would.

I agree completely with your interpretation of the GPL. However, from my limited understanding, it seems that the situation in question was indeed about a "version A". I'm not suggesting the author can't release a future version under another license, or none at all. Of course he can.

I'm saying, if he releases version A under the GPL, he has to comply with the terms of the GPL for that release.

In any case, I'm no fan of the GPL, so it's no sweat off my back. But I don't understand someone releasing a software version under a certain license and then getting upset because someone asks him/her to abide by the terms of that license.

I think adding about a sentence as soon as possible on the landing page that explains your language in more specific, formal terms would be helpful. "Ji enables literate programming and is good at x."

Maybe a quick example that shows how easily I can do some non-trivial task would be nice, "here is how Ji lets you multiply matrices or something."

In looking at technological mechanisms, and coming up with a fairly coherent fundamental list of nine, two of those are what I call process knowledge, generally, expertise in some technical domain, and structured knowledge, generally, scientific expertise.

I've arrived at those terms after spending a lot of time thinking and studying just what "technology" and "science" are. One of the most influential definitions I've come across is John Stuart Mill's: technology is the study of means, while science is the study of causes.

That's ... not fully bulletproof, but it's a very good start. Technology (from Greek, techne, is an art or skill or craft, a way of achieving some ends. While science is knowledge, especially of fundamental causes, principles, mechanisms, or dynamics.

Technology tells you what to do (and/or use, or apply, or manipulate). You don't have to know why it works, as in the example of your anesthesia, only that it works. It's knowledge, but a thinner level of knowledge than science provides.

Science tells you why a thing works. You may still not be able to influence it (we understand, generally, plate tectonics and stellar fusion, we control neither), but the understanding gives predictability around such phenomena. Plate tectonics tells us where earth movements may occur, with what frequency and severity, and the like. Understanding stellar fusion makes sense of the brightness, colours, frequency distribution, mass, and other propreties of stars, as well as of the occurrence of events on their lifecycles.

Jonathan Zittrain recently wrote of a characteristic of AI models that hasa been bothering him: that they provide solutions without explanation. The thing about an AI classifier is that nobody can tell how the classifier itself works. We can throw test data at it and evaluate the outputs, but there's no apparent causal link between input and output. AI is non-explanatory knowledge.

Whether that means it's technology rather than science, or some new domain that's not technology or science (as much as semantic distinctions has meaning), I'm not sure. Though the question's one I'd started asking a couple of years ago myself.

TFA is describing this phenomenon in two aspects: first, that the causal function of proteins themselves isn't understood, and may be beyond our modelling capabilities, and secondly that the AI-driven predictions over folding topologies provides accurate predictions but no causal mechanism.

Another space this resembles is inferrential statistics, which AI is in many regards an outgrowth of. Correlation is useful information, but it is not causation. Multi-stage gradient-desent AI is to a large extent more complext statistics ... but is that all it is, or is it something more, but still short of causal or explanatory mechanism? An emergent property of complex stats themselves?
