Identity is more than just saying you are an identity, it's a reflection of how you actually see yourself.

If you actually see yourself differently then you can actually change what you identify as.

This means you need to actually see yourself differently to not be lying and you can't just pick and choose based on a whim. For example I'm a huge nerd and even if I tell people I don't identify as one it doesn't change how I see myself so it's just a lie. Though as time goes on I'm doing less and less nerdy hobbies so I feel less a part of that group so in the future I might not feel like a nerd at all so if I say I don't identify as a nerd then I'm telling the truth. Doing what you are saying requires being able to actually believe you are part of those different groups.
The more likely solution would be for them to enable this sort of thing in 'PWAs'. Apparently [0] it's not possible today though.

Used to be a bit better when google news told you how many articles existed per story (leading to more meaningful size differences), but it still gets the job done I guess.
End of Bretton Woods happened. Also I was born. And it's all been downhill economically for the middle class since then.
So your base argument is: Palantir is innocent because someone else would do the things they're doing if they were gone? I'm not even sure how to respond to that. You seem to have dropped the point about them making surveillance software now that I have provided an example. You're on to excusing them because someone else could do the awful things they do. That is not a strong argument.

This is presumably part of the point of deliberately underfunding tax agencies.
I recently took up baking (as in bread) as a hobby. It brings me joy to produce something as well smelling and testing as bread. Cooking in general could also be a hobby. Going hiking could be a hobby. Just enjoying life and being mindful of the things around you might open up your mind for hobbies you didn’t even think existed. :-)

Not a limerick, though it has a similar feel. The way I originally heard it was:

Once there was a chemist
There isn't any more
What he thought was H2O
Was H2SO4.

I've heard a few variants, such as "Bobby was a chemist" or "There isn't one no more". At least one blog[1] claims the original poem from 1894 is:

Our Willie passed away today,
His face we’ll see no more;
What Willie thought was H2O
Proved H2SO4.

Your best bet would be to find a job position that you're over-qualified for. You'd probably take a hit on salary but at least you could coast everyday. Alternatively, find a government gig.
Why? A low-margin high-revenue high-employment company is great for the local economy if the margins are low due to labour costs. City admins absolutely want that company way more than a hundred guys each making a hundredth at way higher margin. This way labour eats up more surplus and that's what you want if you're running a city.
I wasn't arguing that induced demand is a product of $0 road cost. It's a product of lower time cost - new roads decrease congestion (temporarily) and induce the higher demand. Eventually the new roads are as congested as the old ones.
The Shitty Add-On Standard
Article points out one thing (moving away from the gold standard) that happened in 1971, but ignores all other cultural and social changes. If you believe the economy takes time to change, then you might as well blame the voting rights act in 1965, or Loving vs Virginia in '67, or the proliferation of terminals in mainframe computers in the early 70s.
Very incomplete analysis, and lots of graphs with questionable predicted values - given the persuasive nature of the site.
This is just an absurd statement. Do you really think that somone is sitting in some cubical thinking, “Geez, how can I regulate purchase of ballpoint pens?” or anything else? That’s not how laws and regulations come about.

I really wish someone would point to an example where any “freedom stealing” law in a democracy was the came from a bureaucrat rather than outside lobbyists. Because the way this common claptrap implies that somewhere there’s a big board where there’s a monthly quota on new regulations and laws, or there’s some other personal incentive.
I'm curious if you tried out ReasonML[0] at all, for any length of time, before Elm, or even after.

https://reasonml.github.io/docs/en/what-and-why

I've really been digging slowly into ReasonML and the biggest gain I can see is that valid reason === valid ocaml (and there's some good server libraries out there for ocaml)

I also like that JSX is the templating language, not that it matters.

Also, have you had any success with manipulating Elm to output static HTML/CSS as well as JS? I know it can do it, but I've never been able to manipulate how it does it (most recent version I tried with: 0.18)

I agree with you mostly, but if we can establish with enough certainty that the benefits of something like this are far greater than the costs, it seems unwise to let "perfect" treatment be the enemy of "good" treatment.
This to me doesn't seem like a great example.

If pricing is dependent on specific factors then that should be listed explicitly or charged for separately rather than left up to the customer to discover.

Imagine going to a restaurant and the table next to you orders the same meal and is charged half of what you pay and when asked why the waiter says "Well they sat down immediately and they ate everything so I had less load to take back to the dishwasher".

None of that makes sense.

Fines should not exist. Anything that gets punished by a fine is basically codeword for 'you can break that law if you're rich'. The most spectacular example being Facebook's stock rising after being fined for a few billions because it was pocket money for them.

Alternatively, if you really want to punish minor things, fines could be dependent on your income.
Memory is foggy and I don't have a citation but didn't the definition of literacy in India just involved the ability to read/write your name (officially by govt)? I wouldn't be surprised if a significant percentage was functionally illiterate - that doesn't mean they aren't smart though - likely smarter than the author :)
Some people, like my wife, can recall both sound and imagery from a movie they've seen. Not all movies, not all scenes, but yeah, video and audio feeds from historic memories...i.e. echoic memory and iconic memory recall to the point one is conscious of seeing something from the mind, in the mind's eye.

As far as I can tell, this ability to visualize and hear things in the mind is entirely dependent on the individual's own thinking process and therefore highly varied. Many can see family members in the mind, but a few can see many images for a single family members (thousands I was told from one person of images of his wife in mind). Those who pray don't see as many images, or enjoy strong consistent imagery when they do. Those who create see their creations in mind and can change them. This creative process is typically called "visualization" but seeing one's parents in mind uses the same process.

The Pineal gland appears to be somewhat responsible for these images, but there isn't much info about the Pineal being the mind's eye as a hard proven scientific fact https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pineal_gland. It's more a belief of many cultures, if anything.

Many, even aphants, report seeing imagery while falling asleep (when the visual consciousness is shutting down): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypnagogia

I pay Australian GST on AliExpress imports, but it doesn't make local outfits more viable. I buy hobby electronic components primarily, local suppliers are often one to two orders of magnitude more expensive, not just a few percent more.
Good. I have written drag and drop functionality in Elm a few times. I have a clear enough idea on how that code looks that if I had to write a drag and drop today, I think I could crank it out quickly.

You call it stateful tho. I dont know that drag and drop needs to be all that stateful. For drag and drop, the information your model needs is whether you have mouse-down-ed on something, the coordinates on the html element you mouse-down-ed, and the coordinates the mouse's current location is. 2 pairs of coordinates and a maybe type? Not too bad. I guess there is the code too, but at least the data is just few values, and not a complex and nested data structure.

On my team at work, we avoid state. Complex nested state is a big code smell for us.

I agree that synergy is an important element, but to me a study like this could make sense even without synergy: To me, it seems better to have 4x the statistical data on 4 drugs at once than just running the individual studies, given how long a study like this takes.

Those quotes read like typical PR statements made by politicians. I was hoping for a bit more.

I can’t find it now but it wasn’t long ago that the NextCloud (or was it OwnCloud) FAQ had a note about security that read something like “we’re busy adding features we’ll get to security later”. It left me feeling uneasy. I would have hoped security would have been part of the design. Maybe I’m just getting old...
This is nothing like Juicero.

Peloton addresses two real needs in the exercise marketplace: home-based classes, and high-quality exercise machines. It simply combined both into one product.

There is huge demand for the former, especially from white-collar workers with high demands on their free time, and a a fair amount of demand for the latter.

At $2000, a Peloton bike is $1000 to $2000 cheaper than the cheapest carbon-frame bike I could find on Google, and more than $3000 cheaper than a racing or tri-bike. For indoor use, you'd also need a trainer, adding another $600-$2000 to the cost (depending on the trainer you get).

Generally, the people I know that have carbon fiber frames also have several other bikes, each for a different niche, and the Peloton would slot right into the indoor spin use case.

There isn’t an economic balance for ransom: if a gang ransomed someone, know that the security issue won’t be fixed in the next month, they could sell the name to another gang. Even if it’s not in the long-term interest of the gang, members might leak, voluntarily or not.

This means that there will be a surge in activity but the cost will grow in ways that few insurers might expect -- Lloyds excluded, who can draw on their experience of dealing with sea piracy to model self-financing extorsion.

I expect this will rapidly turn into reasonable budgets for OpSec, and enforcement by the insurer’s expert: procedural but at least not based on the dual “there was no incident lately, therefore you are useless/there was an incident lately, therefore you are useless”.

Radical idea: rather than choosing between a $2,000 stationary bike for your living room or burning a bunch of fossil fuels to move yourself and your 2,000+ pounds of motor vehicle to a gym to ride somebody else's stationary bike, you could just buy an ordinary bike and ride around outside. You could probably even buy a indoor trainer for your ordinary bike as well, for less than the cost of a Peloton.

I mean, you do you, I guess... I just can't comprehend the appeal of paying $2,000 for a bike that doesn't even take you anywhere. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

This is an extreme oversimplification of the issues in nuclear. I'll suggest it's as extreme of an oversimplification as saying "the only reason we don't have nuclear is because public FUD".

I suspect "fuzziness" here is something specific? E.g. fuzzy-edged shadows from the sun seems pretty obvious - it's not a point light source.

This article [0] says that, at least here in the UK, it's permitted to photocopy a chapter, or an article, but it's not OK to photocopy a whole library book, even as a student.

I have to take Vitamin D all year. I got really sick a year and a half ago due to low levels and wound up with some other issues that it triggered. Turns out, I have MS and the low vitamin D probably helped trigger a flare.

I literally cannot get enough Vitamin D in the winter: The days are short here in Norway and the sun isn't enough. Theoretically, I might be able to get it in the summer, but I really need to wear strong sunscreen since a medicine increases my skin cancer risk. The neurologist doesn't really want me to not take the supplements anyway.

My diet isn't bad. Mostly vegetarian, though I try to eat fish once a week and not otherwise completely devoid of animal products (dairy, for example). The rest of my bloodwork turns out OK.
Ipad: $800 (for similar size screen)
Quality bike of similar component parts: $800+.

You're already $400 behind the cost of a Peloton, which is only $2000...

If you have access to wholesale prices for these parts, sure you could build your own Peloton at home. But using off-the-shelf parts you're just wasting money.
Originally they didn’t collect much data and used manifests on the individual packages, but for the past 5-6 years they’ve a computer system to enter package info, it’s basically a Google Sheet, and they show the manifest like any other shipping company. They’ll occasionally get a thorough stop but it’s up to chance as anything when at a trusted, high-volume border crossing. If you’ve a Nexus card and nothing to declare, you don’t actually have to stop at the border between the US and Canada if Nexus lanes are open... and if you do have something to declare you can drop off a form. Also they probably stick to the same land border crossings and the same schedule to make it easier long-term. They can close many borders but there a lot of commerce and cross-border travel between Canada and the US and parts of Canada can be more populated/central than parts of the US and vice versa. Besides, as long as the carrier follows directions from CBP or CBSA, the responsibility of the shipment belongs with the shipper and you have to leave your complete ”from” details and they even check IDs, in order to ship with them. They send the list in advance so anything suspicious can be flagged or recorded, that’s how customs works in this digital era...
Yea, you can have issues with NPC1L1 or ABCG5/G8 which will impact cholesterol/plant sterol absorption or excretion in the gut. If you are a hyperabsorber, you may want to check your plant sterol levels (xenosterols), as they can lead to health issues.

Just a bit correction there. SCO-Linux litigation is pretty contemporary. Way back before then, there was the System-V vs BSD "Unix wars" ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_wars )

SCO-Linux litigation was just the SCO assholes wanting to get a piece of the pie when they were dying out.

I never said Palantir is innocent. I didn't weigh in on the morality of it at all, in fact. My point is just that Palantir is just a data consulting company. I posted this comment in another thread concerning your example:

> Take a good look at the screenshots in that link. It's a completely generic database -- you fill in some search fields and some data is returned, you can do a join, and then you can plop that data into a chart. Palantir isn't out there collecting data on citizens or scanning license plates or anything else I would consider "mass surveillance".

How hard do you think it would be to replicate that with Oracle, Tableau, and a few half-decent data scientists? Except at least with Palantir I expect them to do a few important things right, e.g. security.

I'll leave my final thought here: if you're really concerned about mass surveillance focus your energy on the people doing the mass surveillance and not the people selling them some nice-looking dataviz tools.

Why Time Has to Be a Dimension
You mentions "ultimatums" and "threats" and a lack of an "adult conversation", what is your basis for that?

The presenters who canceled their presentation didn't go out and say "nobody should go", they didn't accuse anyone of being sexist. They saw an issue and reached out privately first to address it. There organizers were unable to address it this year have said they would open a dialogue to address it.

Their response has been pretty darn level headed and non-acrimonious. What I don't understand is what they deserve the bilious language you are directing at them? It seems to me like you are having the exact type of knee-jerk reaction that you are accusing other people of.
