It's only unreasonable insofar as "they totally could do that". Whether they do do that is a matter of regulation.
I don't think there's a single person today that knows all the rules. If you want to annoy any judge just ask about an interaction between 3+ cards involving Opalescence and Humility. On top of that the rules get more complex with every set, though they do attempt to cut things down. Fortunately for competitive play you only need to worry about a few hundred strong enough cards or so.
Here in The Netherlands it is possible, but only for 50%. So if you have 3 children, and you disinherit one (which is morally defend-able under certain circumstances) then that one gets (1/3) / 2 = 1/6 and the other two get 2/6 + 1/12 = 5/12 (or 4.5/6). In percentages that is 16,66666667% and 41,66666667%.

I find it a fair middle ground.
In Spain it's a fun meme how most foreign movie titles were translated into spanish, totally changing the meaning or simply destroying the original intent of the name.

You could argue some clever titles are not easy to translate, but God knows there was no need to translate "Die Hard" to "Jungla de cristal" (glass jungle). That practice was more prevalent 10-20 years ago, though.

The thing is that now, for one, it happened the other way around with ehm... "Money Heist" what a boring and uninspired name! :-)

Plugging a car to the power grid is just one of many solutions to the problem of powering a car. There are other ways to solve the same problem, which in totalitarian regimes with a centrally planned economy are easier to implement, such as swapping pre-charged batteries.

K-means was in optimization in operations research decades before anyone heard of machine learning in computer science.

Computer science was not a prerequisite to that work in optimization.

Optimization in operations research and much of applied math more generally are awash in important algorithms without reference to computer science and, really, e.g., the Dantzig simplex algorithm of about 1949, before computer science was a recognized academic field.

Such applied math includes A. Wald's work on sequential testing in statistics, the fast Fourier transform,
Gram-Schmidt orthogonalization, Gauss elimination, Gauss-Siedel iteration, the Hungarian method for maximum matching, Runge-Kutta in ordinary differential equations, and much more.

To avoid any NDA troubles, I'll keep it pretty generic: a facility designed and built in 2009 is going to be very hard to modify such that it's operating any differently than it did it 2009. Physical things are harder to upgrade than software. Built a new robotic system? That's great for new facilities, but what happens to the ones that predate it? Amazon has hundreds of facilities.

And on a software front, those older facilities are using different physical processes which need different software than the new tech. How do you architect the whole thing such that the increasing complexity of this ecosystem doesn't create exponential work as it needs to all integrate together and be maintained?

Shopify, by contrast, isn't carrying that legacy on their back. They're potentially on the same exponential curve, but they are much farther on the left and maybe they can find a way to make it a smaller exponent. Maybe. We'll see how it goes.
In its long term effect this fraud is similar to serial rape. But that's also true of serial seduction under false pretenses. Should the punishment for these things also be similar? I don't know.

From a Darwinian perspective even the death penalty is insufficient, since reproducing copiously is worth dying for. The only effective punishment would involve also killing or sterilizing the resulting children ... which is entirely unacceptable from our cultural perspective.

So to a Darwinian insemination doctor this may be something like a perfect crime, in that there is no prospective punishment that outweighs the benefits.
> Reddit got rid of default subs years ago.

The only thing in your entire comment that's not opinion and the only thing worth answering for the rest of the readers.

Despite there no longer being default subs, most of the userbase is still subscribed to default subs. Which drives activity to them. Which causes new users to subscribe to them.

The top 10 subreddits by activity are: askreddit, politics, funny, pics, awww, worldnews, todayilearned, relationship_advice, amitheasshole, memes. 8 of them were defaults. This isn't going to change any time soon as there's a positive feedback loop perpetuating it.

They changed the impact of Google on my life. I completely excised Google from my life after a couple high-profile incidents at Google indicated they the company would use its power for political gain.
If that's the case then yeah, that's absolutely not alright. :S
I agree with the feeling, and I want to add a few things to try to help both sides understand.

I don't think it's appropriate to say that "life is made of". Admittedly, "life is full of", and if you can enjoy those menial tasks, reach that "zen" level as some say, that's great. In that case it's true that your "life is made of", and if you can enjoy it, much better for you. The less you need to live happy, the easier it's to achieve that happiness.

And in fact, most of us could learn a bit of that. Accept that we have to deal with those things, and at least try to not torture ourselves with it, enjoy it as much as possible (even if in some cases it doesn't seem to amount to much).

All that being said, I think it's also easy to lose perspective when you manage to achieve a certain degree of happiness or comfortability through that kind of routine, or when you deeply believe in that idea. In particular, I believe that's a state that not everyone can reach, and I doubt it's a matter of being trained enough or trying hard enough. Some people just have a natural need to create, or explore, or need to actively fight and try to change the world they live in, or whatever. Sometimes, that comes from inside, in the same way as hunger, or your need to sleep.

This probably sounds hyperbolic. For most people, it probably is. But this is the kind of issue that you can only really understand if you personally live it, because it is a psychological need, and that's very hard to communicate to others who don't feel the same way.

In conclusion:
I absolutely believe those who say that they find meaning in a life like this. I actually think that most people can find meaning in a life like this, and I believe the social factor is the most relevant for most people's happiness.
But I also believe there's a lot of people who can't find meaning in a life like this, as much as they try, because they have other needs, and trying to supress them it's not only unreasonable, but a nice attempt at torture. I can understand the people that says that they would rather kill themselves. Hopefully this adds a bit more context.
Not breaking stdin and stdout is key. Looking at the output from that shell, text parsing tools like awk are not going to integrate if you dont have a compatible tool yet. Everything in a base Linux install has to be rewritten to work.

Personally i prefer the keep it simple approach. Id much rather /etc/hosts stayed the way it is rather than becoming xml, json or binary.

The whole idea of "Power" shell is broken if you ask me. Shell should be simple. If it isnt, write some proper code. And do some code review, and testing first!

> Smog is their main problem, and EVs are the solution.

They are not the solution. They represent a specific way to mitigate the problem by reducing the output of a very specific type of emissions.

I'd argue that setting up a functioning mass transit network in urban areas does more to lower emissions than switching powertrains in personal vehicles.
Yeah, that happens all the time. I'm Dutch native (hence familiar with Dutch title getting translated), and I refer in my own language to La Casa De Papel with the Spanish title. I only used the English title because people here might recognize or use that term in applications such as Netflix. I understand enough Spanish to understand the Spanish title and I very much prefer native titles over translations but I do like it when behind it an understandable translation is added (even if it isn't perfect).

I keep a log (plain text file, using Vim to edit it) of all movies and series I've seen in my life. The way my log works:

Dutch -> remains Dutch as it is my primary native language.

English -> remains English as I understand it well enough.

All other -> Orig. title (English translation, regardless of how well I speak or understand the language).

If I were to start over I'd do it properly with a CSV database or Excel but yeah I didn't and merging 1500 lines I CBA.

It's not surprising that the various states insisted on collecting sales tax from online sales. Free money! We don't have to do anything! We get it because we're the government!

But, the states have been derelict in their duty to protect and apply the well established protections they insist other stores comply with.

Collecting taxes is not a free lunch. It comes with serious responsibilities.

It's telling that the states are not clamoring to take on these responsibilities. If they are unwilling or unable to take up these responsibilities, then they should not be collecting the taxes.
While the JavaScript ecosystem is on the volatile side, learning new tools and frameworks every few years is just part of our job. Only in very boring tech jobs would you only have to learn new things maybe once every 5 years.

Ah, my apologies. I should’ve spent a bit more time composing my original comment before posting.

This comment is solely about my experiences: I’m not speaking on behalf of anyone.

In my experience, I go to a gay bar or a nightclub and, well, it feels like they don’t want to flirt or get to know me, they just want sex.

That’s what I meant about “appropriate” spaces —- somewhere that isn’t going to be overly sexualised to my detriment.

I look around and I don’t see anywhere I can start a conversation without someone who’s behaviour (eg entitlement to have sex, or drunkenness, or harassing me, or potential violence, etc.) would negatively impact on me being in that space.

That includes being harassed by straight people in these spaces. Hen parties who want a “gay BFF”, homophobes (because a small minority are increasingly vocal about their opposition and will act on it), etc. which make me reluctant to go to these spaces right now.

Are there solutions to these problems? Of course, but it feels a lot harder to implement them than it would if I weren’t gay. From my point of view, the social structures we’ve established as a civilisation aren’t quite equal (e.g. I can’t just go up to someone at the supermarket and flirt with them without potentially risking violence) and that’s what saddens me the most.

I don’t know if you’re LGBTQ+, but if you’re not, the pressures and challenges the LGBTQ+ community face in this area are distinct from the heterosexual dating community.

So, yes, online dating—-for me—-is the safest way to meet other men, even though I would prefer that the real life spaces were safer and more accommodating.

- Privacy and security enhancing techniques make the captcha harder or impossible. For example, the tracking protection built into firefox blocks the recaptcha.js (in a certain view even rightfully so, because google will use that for tracking)

- Apps do not work anymore. This cannot be solved. For recaptcha, one needs a working browser steered by humans. Apps necessarily act like robots.

This comes in line with increased usage of "2"-factor authentication.
For example, amazon now requires a browser cookie to login. If you don't have such a cookie, you need to enter a code received via e-mail or SMS. If you delete your cookies (maybe automatically), you
This comes under the pretense of security but really is used to fight user privacy.

One general point: Businesses uses machines to provide services.
Why shouldn't we as consumers be allowed to rely on machines to consume said services? 15 years ago there was this "semantic web" fad with "intelligent agents". This mess is a huge step backwards.

The root-cause of this is two-fold:
- advertising-based business model. If every "bot" needed to pay for the service as well as any other user, revenue will not be hurt by "bots".
- other misuse
- "Dumb users" as more computer-illiterate people are using these services, it gets easy for businesses to dismiss user choice.

If this should not end in a dystopian nightmare, we will need:
- Privacy-preserving login protocols that are stronger than user/password
- Privacy-preserving and low-friction micropayment (e.g. Taler)
- Some privacy-preserving way to fight misuse. I have no idea here. Maybe some crypto-social-network with zero-knowledge-foo?

Agree with you that the smoother shape leads to a more pleasing colour profile -- note that the `rainbow` cmap in matplotlib is different to the one you compared against, it's actually more similar to Turbo by looks. I would have also compared against other diverging colour maps, like Spectral and those available in `cmocean` (the latter are really beautiful).

All of this said, Turbo is quite pleasing to the eye :).
Interesting PoC, but does it solve a real world problem?

If I had to reinvent the shell by breaking backward compatibility, I would do a statistical study using all the shell scripts publicly available on GitHub, a survey about the critics of the current shells in the literature, and then I would try to optimize a metric such as : words typed to complete a task, reproductivity, time-to-market, communication, mathematical soundness, etc. The result of the study might be that the current shell is enough and the cost of switching to another is too big (I don't know, it's an hypothesis)

People shared many thoughts and opinions on this thread, so that's already a win by itself

Some people like it, but I personally find the G-Shock (exterior) design intolerable. At least, they should remove some of the spurious writings on their higher end watches. I currently have an old Casio Protrek PRG-550BD that seems to be indestructible, too, but if it ever stops working I will probably go for a Seiko or a Hamilton Field watch.

There is an interesting story about Seiko I once read. Apparently they built two factories in the 60s whose main purpose was to compete with each other to break new precision records for their quartz watches. They almost destroyed the Swiss watch business.
I also see a shift in how cars are seen. Before they were a high grade cultural item. A blend of technology, lifestyle, time saver... Now it's starting to look more and more as a commodity, and even a problematic one in case of ICE due to CO2.

I really hope this never happens.

Why? Because I have reader mode turned on by default and haven’t looked back since over a year ago, and I can’t imagine the web without it any more. It’s the only thing that makes the web tolerable, no matter how many ad blockers I install.

If everyone else used it too, websites would become wise and start blocking it somehow.

Oh, wait, I mean, reader mode is terrible and nobody should use it!
The irony is that the very attempt to be one tool for everything caused Perl's own destruction. Perl 5 is still used by some veterans for small scripts but who wants to use Perl 6?

Unix follows the KISS principle, and that is key for success. Albert Einstein said: "Keep things as simple as possible but not too simple". In that sense Unix and Posix are well done. However, that doesn't mean that good ideas like Nushell are not welcome.

You could use entire 127/8 but using such instead of 127.0.0.1 for security reasons (so that people don't guess or connect to a port) makes no sense.

It only works on Apple’s platforms, and the OP didn’t specify what they’re using. Furthermore, it’s just a Safari Content Blocker with (last I checked) a single list, meaning it has a hard limit of 50k rules, “curated” by (by their own admission) “a tiny two-person-and-one-husky” team.

I’m glad it works for you (and many others), but for a tech-savvy crowd that cares about long-term effectiveness, that’s an inferior solution.
> I've become frustrated with having to disable one or both of the above for too many sites--they just break functionality for a good chunk of the web

For uBlock Origin[1], the best solution is to report the breakage to filter list maintainers.

Keep in mind that all the lists are community-contributed, with filtering issue addressed as users report them. So you benefit from these when using a content blocker making use of these community-maintained lists.

So when you report a broken site and that as a result the lists are updated, then you contributed back to have the issue addressed for others as well when they visit the site.

The basic default lists/settings should have minimal breakage issues.

[1] Side note: uBO is a content blocker, not an "ad blocker" -- I never ever referred to uBO as an "ad blocker". I consider this an important distinction.
Not only that, but "the republicans have failed us" suggests that they should've been expected not to, which is almost the exact opposite of the current left-wing rhetoric. It'd be quite hard to find a simple inversion that works here because the two sides use different arguments and different phrasing.
