I agree

There's too much "my son won't eat that" while forgetting how the older generations dealt with that. Guess what, tough love is needed sometimes.

For the amount of things parents shouldn't compromise on, eating a varied diet is one important thing.

"Won't tolerate" is 99% of the time just a matter of sticking up to it. A couple of years ago I just wouldn't tolerate unsweetened coffee. Now that's all I drink for the most part. (There are very few specific foods that I won't tolerate but nothing to the point of having an extremely deficient diet)

Edit: while there was an underlying issue that was absent from the story, the point stands, nobody will "magically" start tolerating foods they don't without some active effort.
Can’t we trace a clear line that says: “Here is my new tech. It’s FOSS you can access the code and use it for free to build other technologies with it. You may not simply provide my tech as a service and charge money for that’s my biz model”

Example:

Here’s a fantastic new mixing machine. You can make your own for free and use it in other applications such as making smoothies or cakes. You may not start an industrial mixing biz and charge money for it. That’s my biz model.
Nonsense. There is zero evidence that Russia was behind Wikileaks, save a few butt-hurt American patriots who don't like knowing the truth about their country's evil mis-adventures around the world.

Just because it hurts your feelings doesn't mean its the Russians behind it. Maybe your country is just doing evil, illegal things that the world should know about, ASAP.
In my experience with recent thinkpads, my battery life never really beats the w10 install it comes with. Not sure if there are some very clever windows-only optimizations or what, but that's what I've noticed.
I remain unconvinced, all of these are cases of Guanxi, which is incredibly important among Chinese. It's not so much about wealth, but about connections, especially political ones. You definitely want to be on the good side of certain Chinese officials, if you want to do business there.

Even though such cases may exist, you're not likely to "fall" on a $400k job after blowing your inheritance on a startup. While good connections certainly help with creating wealth, wealth by itself doesn't necessarily help with creating good connections - especially if that wealth is now gone.
I think a lot of people don't really care or want to know what is going on in the world, they prefer watching "entertaining" high speed car chases, tornado reports, animal rescues, special guest "experts" that shout ideas over one another, and whatever other wild things the news can come up with these days. I'm in Poland right now, the latest "big" news was that the son of some rich guy died jet skiing and that a thunderstorm killed some people in the mountains, not the crisis in Venezuela or protests going on in Hong Kong. I recommend Anchorman 2, if you haven't watched it already, great comedy and commentary about the state of the current news.
That story reminds me, I once made my own ketchup. It's a lot of fun, but not very rewarding (see below).

You'll find many different recipes on the net. I chose one of them that I considered most promising, assembled the definitely countless ingredients, then carefully peeled and boiled down the tomatoes, and so on. The whole process took me about two hours, maybe even longer. Before you add the vinegar, it tastes like a delicious Indian tomato sauce.

The result after adding the vinegar tasted like the cheapest, generic no-name ketchup you could find. It wasn't particularly bad, just not nearly as good as Heinz. Whatever they put in their ketchup, it sure is some secret sauce.
I do something similar to that. Living off-grid and my solar setup is quite small (1.6kwh of solar panels and a bunch of batteries). However I depend on electricity for most things, including cooking(induction) and hot water (electric water heater/tank).

So in sunny days I let the water tank heat as much as possible(usually around 70-80C), and can go 3-4 days without even needing to turn it on. We are 4 in the household and it holds nearly 100liters of water. It is a kind of battery :)
What country is that? Presumably that’s born out in stats on air travel comparing it to other countries with similar personal spending power?
Yes, Portland added diverters to some of its neighborhood Greenway routes, that forcibly divert car traffic (walking and biking can still get through). It was done for basically what's talked about in the article, too many cars using local residential roads for commuting.

Really, this is a design problem with the streets and lack of effective public transportation. LA brought this onto itself.
Unfortunately, the sleeper cars are often quite expensive (I recently did DC to LA via Chicago and if I remember correctly the sleeper car price was about 2.5x what a flight would have cost me). But totally agreed if they could get the cost down for a nice sleeper car to a reasonable level
It's easier (or maybe: more feasible) to deal with emissions regarding electronics. We know how to produce renewable energy.
You should pay more attention to the refugee children who have walked across Europe to escape American wars.

They definitely feel they have been reigned by American terror campaigns at the rate of one bomb dropped every twenty minutes for the last 19 years.

Pay attention to the victims of America's wars. That is true terrorism.
It sounds like a legitimate psychological problem. I would hesitate to blame the entitlement culture on this.
Even easier, just reduce the sales tax by the amount of revenue the carbon tax generates.
developers don’t triage their own bugs (mostly) but the difference is that one issue is implicit at PR time while the other is explicit (actual
bugs filing - this means that apart from fixing they occur the overhead of actually having Jira/whatever items attached to them, being discussed and prioritized in backlog grooming, being preempted by higer priority feature work or bugs, you name it. what was a 5 minutes fix now eats hours. with 0 recognition and perceived as cleanup that might not be needed at all)
It's still somewhat dependent on the person. I tried the wall calendar and even large whiteboard in my room to track streaks and habits, and then discovered my brain has repurposed its internal adblock to remove these habit trackers from my conscious attention. :/. I have the same problem with TODO lists, so I have to switch the way I track tasks every couple weeks.
> So even my next laptop might feature spinning rust, if any exist. On the plus side HDD's add a level of chunkiness I like in laptops.

"Chunky" laptops will have replaceable parts (which really is not the case of the surface laptop). Getting an aftermarket TB SSD (whether m.2 or SATA) costs 100~200 and takes a few minutes to swap in. You do not want to BTO this sort of upgrades unless you know aftermarket upgrade is not an option (because everything is soldered as in the surface laptop or most modern MBPs), manufacturers way overprice RAM and storage.

Nah, so long as you cast to an integer (preferably uintptr_t) before fiddling with it you're fine¹

¹ I think, but to be honest it's been some time since I really knew the arcane C rules and I'm not confident anymore
I see the same almost everywhere, on HP's site (https://store.hp.com/us/en/vwa/laptops/form=Standard-laptop) they have some cheap laptops with 1TB HDD's but even now the cheapest with 512GB SSD's start at 3 times the price.

Upgrading myself is probably the best option, but there's a minefields of things I'm not confident with when it comes to mobile hardware.

IME running linux, especially a lightweight distro, makes more of a performance difference than an SSD anyway, at least with my usage.

Edit -also at $170 it would just about be doubling the price of an otherwise acceptable laptop, so hardly a huge win.
Burning fuel cleanly still emits the exact same amount of carbon.
It’s an old nickname! Given to me by a very clever friend
I agree. Get an international body with 50% +1 voting rules, proportional to people represented (say, 1 for every 5e6 living humans, including minors).
Get a carbon certificate system up, where there is exactly 1 way to create certificates: permanently sequester carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. I.e., grow plants, char them, and bury the coal deep enough to convince the international carbon committee that the cover won't erode for some minimum time (something above 1e7 years, I'd suggest), or something as effective.
Find a way to sanction local governments that don't enforce the need for carbon certificates when digging up stored carbon/burning down (old?) forests/etc. . I think mutual economic sanctions against the local government by way of a full (Maybe except imports of basic grains and such into the offending area, if the international carbon commission deems them at risk of famine otherwise. Also medicine and medical equipment deemed essential. Possibly with international ground troop supervision/fact-checking in cases where abusing the embargo loophole would be significant, i.e. spare electronics.) trade embargo between the offender and the rest of the world. There might be reasons to use a selective embargo instead, which allows imports of technology for zero/net-negative carbon industry, along with 1:1 export quotas to pay for the imports. Likely coupled by way of 1:1 exchanges of container loads, i.e. export this heap of containers, in exchange for importing this heap of containers with "green" technology/medicine/food, but no money changing hands there.

To be fair though, it might actually be possible to found the international carbon commission in a technocratic way, obviously without any way to enforce anything at the start, but a sort of small founding group that serves to organize the first year/first years of meetings, building the physical place, managing funding from the benevolent technocrats, etc.

He is autistic and has a legitimate eating disorder. The BBC have fucked the reporting.

ARFID (Avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder) is common in autistic people.

The article points to a collapse in the support available to young people with mental ill health or autism or learning disability.
I actually use MongoDB Atlas for the same app now, because my usage fits in the free tier.
L1 cache lines are typically 64 bytes long, and you're only reading 16 bytes of it per level of the tree. And a random pointer tree traversal is the worst case for CPU branch prediction, too.

There are methods for optimising the use of various tiers of cache, trying to pack multiple nodes into one 64 byte line, arranging nodes such that left and right children are usually adjacent in memory so prediction losses are minimised, and other tricks.
The cost is just incredible - I'd always wanted to do cross country by train and was booking and the prices were just outrageous for a sleeper car versus a plane. I opted for the middle route of just having a seat on the train... 3 days later I regretted that decision, but it wasn't quite as bad as the Romania to Moldova overnight train, that one was rough

Yet it works in China. The reason why it won't work is because flight is essentially subsidized - if you were to pay for all flight externalities, it would be way costlier than trains even on longer routes. Probably not on routes such as LA-NYC or tho.
I get the impression that that's the desired effect of foreign-funded fake news compaigns.
BBC have missed out important information.

This child is autistic and has an eating disorder called ARFID - Avoidant/restrictive food intake disorder. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Avoidant/restrictive_food_inta...

England currently has a pretty severe problem with paediatric mental health services (which is where paediatric autism diagnostic and support services would normally sit), and with providing community support for people.
Reading this from Eastern Europe the "you" in:
"You destroy our lands"
"that common enemy is you"
"We call on you to stop what you are doing"
"When your money comes into our communities"
etc sound very wrong. I imagine it also sounds weird for people in America who have no connections with what happens in the Amazon.
How does one "work comfortably on the train"? Assuming you are using a computer, or even do anything else intellectual including reading, the constant vibrations and movement of the train places a very definitive strain on the eyes (because they have to constanly work to even be able to focus on what you're looking at) and makes it harder to concentrate. Many people experience the rocking effect where they get very sleepy. The internet connection will just inevitably end up being worse and less reliable, completely off in some areas. You don't have access to a great desk, to a great chair, you are constantly distracted by noises. Dependent on what your seating arrangement is, you can be distracted by your neighbors, even if they don't talk to you. There is very little space, you can forget getting up and stretching well or taking short walks to gather your thoughts. How does any of this amount to "comfortable work"? Have you tried working on a train? It is an illusion that one could comfortably work on one. Even reading a book comfortably might be a stretch on some of them.
Interesting how much of #metoo could relate to these phenomena.
so back in the day we had to watch film footage of this as part of the training for working on Boeing aircraft electrical wirings.
I have my own example of this. Something I remember with clarity, but didn't happen. Not as horrific as sexual abuse, but close enough to convince me how fallible our memories are.

A few years ago a friend an I were having dinner at a restaurant. The waiter came by to serve water, and as he was filling our glasses, he would raise the pitcher up very high above the glass while saying to himself, "Easy, Franciso... Eeeasy!" It was funny.

Except that's not what happened at all. What really happened was that we were there at dinner when my friend told me the story of some other time he had a waiter that did just that. He must have described it to me in sufficient detail for me to form the mental image and merge it with our dinner that night.

A couple years later, I start telling this story as if I had been there, to a group of people that included my friend from that night. That's when I learned that it was a false memory.

It was disorienting to say the least. As soon as this was pointed out to me, I did remember the real conversation and him telling me.
That's too young to be eligible for a Darwin Award.

I didn't want to offend you, so I have to apologize.

Many homosexuals really don't like the Idea of their sexual identity being "fluid". It doesn't seem to be the case that people "find out" they are homosexual later in life. They usually know it in puberty, even if they may not be able to clearly articulate it.

Talking about sexual identity as fluid is very close to saying it is a choice, curable or preventable, and that idea is causing a lot of harm.

Bisexual behavior or identity is something different again. And it's not clear to me if these are homo/heterosexuals also being able to "function" in the other way, or if it is a third kind of sexual orientation. From what I know it seems to be that a lot more heterosexuals are able to feel homosexual attraction/arousal than we may think. And homosexuals, especially in the past, have led opposite-sex relationships with all the "trappings".
It looks as if this is using liquid water as a thermal capacity. While water has a high thermal capacity (4.2 J/g), the energy required to melt ice is much larger (334 J/g) and a melting ice block will maintain the 0°C until molten. So it would be more efficient and better guarantee the temperaturs in the fridge, if it worked with melting ice as the thermal buffer.
This reminds me of a story told to me at university when an "enterprising" student took out the maximum loan he could, bought an expensive stereo system and a sack of porridge oats to eat for the rest of the term, and promptly got scurvy. I always suspected it was apocryphal, but I'm re-evaluating the probability of it being true now.
Kashmir it's mentioned in the article.

It also mentions this, which I found surprisingly high:

In all, more than a quarter of the world’s nations have used the tactic at one point or another over the past four years.
Signal jamming. Transmission detection vans to find base c&c stations. Device confiscation and outlawing.
You've attempted to show that they would agree on 'patriarchy in Western Civ.', but that doesn't go so far as to show that the full scope of their 'ideologies' can be reconciled

Trump and Dworkin are key parts of Western Civilisation, and I think it's undebatable that their ideology and theory do not cohere.

For Peterson 'Western Civilisation' clearly entails a very specific account of the role of certain people in developing our notions of things like liberty, empiricism, and individualism. Others are free to invoke in their idea of 'Western Civilisation' the role of certain people in practicing slavery, genocide, and colonialism.
Likewise here. OS X user at work. I don't mind OS X but it's one of those platforms where you just have to learn to love many of the decisions made on your behalf. Whereas when I switching to Arch everything works how chose it to.

The thing with Arch is it is a bit of a pain to install compared to basically every other OS. Needlessly painful in my personal opinion but I'm not going to argue against the hard work the maintainers put in. However the beauty of Arch is once it's running it will last for years with very little effort.

It's funny you mention keyboard bindings though, I've spent so much time trying to get keyboard bindings right on OS X and it's still not right. I wish OS X had an option to toggle between Mac and IBM bindings. I get the command key is useful on occasions but Apple really are the odd one out these days and it's a pain switching between Macs and PCs because of it.
eh, it's kind of a set-it-up-and-forget-about it type of thing. i've used both Arch and FreeBSD on laptops and while I'm sure setting it up was a pain I haven't had to touch system configuration stuff for a while.

though really i think for many people part of the appeal of Arch, FreeBSD, etc, IS the endless system configuration tweaking.
We know that "this" can't be the answer because we know that humans aren't fooled by the inputs that were crafted to fool the language model.

I hope somebody forks MongoDB from the version when it was open source.

That no one has done that already suggests that no one thinks it’s worth doing. And it isn’t, Postgres is properly free, and more than surpasses Mongo in all aspects.
I've read somewhere that humans like crispy food because it's naturally a good way to differentiate e.g. not-yet-rotten vegetables. But like our innate taste for salt and sugar it's perverted in industrial foods.
imagine starting every day of your working life thinking you just got done with a wonderful two weeks vacation, energized and ready to continue on with your employment tasks! in fact with our new happy memory management service your employees will never need to take a vacation, weekend, or fake sick day again - because they will think they just did!
My understanding (from asking the same before) is that:

* Yes, but that's de facto _not_ open source, because all OS licences allow commercial use by definition;

* A licence isn't a magic bullet, you can have this model but if you're not prepared to enforce it it's useless.
I haven't seen a more callous comment in a long time. This was a child who has obviously been dreadfully let down by their parents. Shame on you.
People are rarely actually blind to the consequences of their actions. Most people know exactly what they're doing, especially if they're not working alone.

If someone is doing something you believe is bad it's because they have prioritised something else (usually, but not always, personal gain).

> Then during the Cultural Revolution he was targeted by the Anti-Right movement and his original Nushu documents were burned. Hu had by this time also passed away.

Every time I read this kind of stuff, it makes me feel really mad and sad at the same time. Some people would blame Mao, some would blame the Gang of Four, some would blame the CCP as a whole. I personally don't know who to blame. Yes they were all pretty awful, but it also took a whole bunch (we're talking about millions) of other gullible people to enact that madness. As a Chinese, I feel really sad that we lost so much of our heritage and intellectual progress for essentially a power grab of four people. Nüshu is just a tiny example. The fact that we had such a big number of gullible and arrogant people who were willing to turn on their compatriots in some of the most inhumane ways possible, it makes me really sad.

I'd assume any kind of "ETAnet" would be trained on everyone's driving patterns, not individuals.
the only thing that really worries me is humanity going back to pre-modern technology levels, this time with full-on communism added for good measure, all in the name of climate protection.

otherwise i find climate change to be something that prepares us for colonising other places: planets and climates change; 300 million years ago Venus was the place to be, today it's Earth, tomorrow it will be the outer planets, specifically their satellites. we weren't really aware of these changes, especially their magnitudes.
climate change brought it all out. it's up to us to learn from it so that we can control it. especially for the moment when we will unshackle ourselves from this solar system.

yes, i am extremely optimistic about the human race.
Depends on the standard of proof that is required.
