> Milo Youannopolis quote “the world would have been better off if your mother banged you on the rock as a baby” or something to that effect. This is gross, and offensive, but not a threat. It’s not a threat to talk hyperbolically about a hypothetical and ridiculous past event.

As false positives go, if this is the one you're worried about, you can tell that your case isn't strong by asking exactly what a platform that accidentally threw out that sort of content-baby with the actual-threat bathwater would be losing. Even if "it's not a threat" were inarguably true, it doesn't make much sense as a response, because there's no discourse in there, it's simply abuse, and likely runs afoul of other rules, certainly of other sensible rules that could be established.

But to say it's not a threat really stops short of thinking about what was said. “the world would have been better off if your mother banged you on the rock as a baby” is a statement that bypasses any particular criticism -- the kind of thing that might be a valuable feature in speech and discourse -- and instead simply asserts a total lack of value in someone's life. If you think that discourse is valuable, part of the reason for that has to be that you think ideas matter. What are the consequences if people believe in that idea -- the idea that some specific person's life has a total lack of value because they said something Milo doesn't like?

"Not a threat" is a technical judgment, perhaps even a distinction that matters. But there's absolutely the implication of violence, and hyperbole is not an adequate defense, nor would any sensible person find it so if they were told that someone should have done the world a favor and set them on fire as a child.

> rules can only be implemented in a way that reflects the bias

Which is another way of saying that rules will always be about values, both of those who wrote them and those who carry them out. Whether that's a bug or a feature depends on how fit the values in play are.
>Consider things like the Jewish law that a child who disobeys his parents must be stoned to death.

Is this a typical "more common" example of law though, or some curiosity from antiquity?

How many modern laws are wanted "despite enforcement being impossible"? (Which as per your example, doesn't even mean "enforcement being impossible" but rather "enforcement being undesirable" or something). We have some laws that we can't enforce in the sense of there's no easy way to practically check if somebody broken it (e.g. pirating some software). But most laws we can and do enforce them if the perpetrator is caught.
Amazing, I can't even begin to understand how you reached that conclusion. Maybe you're a 4D being?

Psychonaut 101:

Read Erowid.

The Five S's:
Source: Know about where you're getting it so you know you're getting what you think you're getting.
Self: How do you respond to this chemical? What brings you comfort, what brings you stress? What might you want and not want around?
Setting: Where are you? Who is around you?
Set: What is your mindset and intention for this experience?

For "Source"; I recommend something I call the "Wine Test". You don't need to know anything about wine to know if someone else does; get them talking and see if they have lots of details. If your prospective source is paying attention, they'll know what people's experiences have been on what they're supplying. They'll care about it being at least a good thing, if not exactly the right thing. If they're apathetic, or only care about your cash, walk away.

For "Set", I recommend a little intentionality ceremony. Hold the dose in your head, contemplate what you're looking for out of the experience, and say it aloud as one part prayer and one part benediction. A good fallback is "We who are about to do this accept all foreseen and unforeseen consequences."

To avoid / handle bad trips, just start changing things. Change at least one thing, then change at least one other thing, repeat until better. Music has a huge effect, so generally, start by changing that.

I love the Ergo. Bought two (in case they stop selling them at some point) and forced my employer to get me one (for H&S reasons). I've been using the pointer finger track ball for years but this feels so much better.

Also it's good for people with big hands.

The only downside is the rubber downside of it. It got unstuck so I had to glue it back onto the metal part. They really didn't think much about that.
My therapist said to me once: "I really like pessimistic patients a lot more than overly optimistic ones. A depressed, pessimistic person is judging the world very accurately and is not crushed by a negative outcome, as they have already thought about exactly that. They might even completely circumvent the negative outcome, because they thought about every possibility beforehand. Optimists on the other hand can be crushed and become very depressed when the positive outcome is not the result they are presented with."

I find funny this "beating C with X" attempts and articles, popular since the dawn of computing.

Although all of them are trying hard to be a little bit faster (and shorter) than C code, this is usually the price they have to pay:

1. Abysmal compilation time.

2. Huge binaries. Sure, C static binaries aren't small, but much smaller than equivalent Go programs.

3. Complex language. C is still simple language (sans edgy cases). No need to dive into type theory, learn about functors and so on just to write something.

4. Complex implementations (compilers, garbage collectors...). Not something you can hack over the weekend.

5. Complex distribution. C natural environment is Unix/Linux and libc/glibc is always there. Everything else requires additional (usually tons of) libraries or static linking.

6. Language instability. Because of 3), these languages are always evolving. You can read and compile C code 20-30 years ago and I'm expecting the same for the next, at least, 10 years.
I agree, but people who do things like you listed would be the least affected by making traveling harder.
I don't think I understand the concept behind this, it feels a bit like an attempt at using github-as-a-database or turning it into one with schemas, scripts and validators?
True. If Obama got it, anyone can.
One site that I've found with a wide-ish breadth of events is https://evensi.com. They however seem to have too much choice and it's difficult to narrow down to a small relevant list of events. There sometimes are too many options that are vaguely interesting but too few that are genuinely engaging. Meetup works quite well in this respect as you can select your interests and it's not too difficult to scan the entire list if that doesn't offer a decent choice and it's certainly something Eventbrite lacks even though they have vast inventory (It's better designed for ticketing rather than discovery). I've tried to crack this and have put together a site to recommend you 5 interesting events each day over the next week. (Also all free entry with some food and or drink). Currently in fairly early stages and covers London. https://onlythebestevents.com
Please no. That reads like a cheat sheet for sociopaths.

Conversations between good actors don't need to be engineered. These techniques are probably great if you're a police officer, lawyer, executive, or salesperson, but let's not turn our workplaces into that internally.

I'm also in software development, and especially in this field, just talk directly to people. If you find that you can't connect with your team and you need various pre-planned tactics to work with others, you're probably doing something else wrong.

We're social creatures. Don't engineer away the last of our humanity from our workplaces in pursuit of optimal request fulfillment.
If his attempts to debate neo-nazis on Twitter are anything like his attempts to debate here, it's no wonder they didn't work.
You are always at the mercy of the compiler, unless you use intrinsics or assembly directly (and then it's debatable whether what you are writing is really "C"). C compilers are pretty good, but there are things they cannot do.

For example, ISPC[1] is a low-level language that is very similar to C, but which makes it straightforward for the compiler to use vector instructions very aggressively - far more than any existing C compiler would be able to.

This argument is compelling on the surface, were it not that Europe has had laws against this kind of speech for a fairly long time now and it has made nothing worse. The place where it really is worse is the US, where even people who are not fascists seem to imagine that it is important to give them a "platform".
The intuition is correct and the article mentions it, purely taking a diet and replacing sugar with sweetener will help. It's just that in the real world people don't often make such pure diet changes, so what people are often asking is 'Does the average person who tries to consume artificial sweetener over sugar successfully lose weight?'. The answer to that appears to be: Not really.

Why? Is it to do with the sweetener itself? Or is it just with food labelling? Or marketing? Much harder question.
You don't need to seek: Spin up workers, have them wait on a mutex, and read blocks. If the producer is slow, then you won't need to feed multiple workers. If it's fast, it's a matter of finding the tradeoff between block size vs. the processing time per block.
That sounds like a rather common strategy for making provocative statements, doesn't it?

>Dominance is irrelevant, and a law based on that would be completely unreasonable.

Actually that's exactly how monopoly law works, checking dominance in a market.

It's also not different from the subtle laws (even in US) for determining religion or cult.

>Twitter might be popular today, next year it could be something else.

That's not a problem at all, as a law could e.g. cover all social media companies "above a certain user threshold".

>And how would you even define "social media" in a way that would pass Constitutional muster?

I don't really need to pass U.S Constitutional muster, as I'm speaking about E.U. That said, I'm pretty sure if US legislators wanted it, they could find a way. They have defined what's journalism, they could also define what's social media. Or they could extend the law to all media.

This is a feature not a bug[0].

You can also add a plus sign with your own string after the username, useful for giving to websites you don't fully trust.

e.g. user.name+facebook@gmail.com

Gmail will still send it to user.name@ and you can track and filter the messages sent to that address.

I managed to get half of my department to switch to a trackball. Even the secretaries got one (after that the department head stopped buying them because MX Ergo are expansive compared to a cheap mouse that comes with the computer...).

I also got my SO and her parents to switch. My SO plays games a lot and had started getting problems around her wrist. She never came back to the mouse.

Awarding a Nobel Prize (e.g., Literature) is a political statement.

The Nobel committee doesn't want to "shake the floor too much" (i.e., wants to avoid controversy with the American/European elites on key topics).

>So is there no point in any privacy laws then, since your assumption is the US government will violate it?

Its not an assumption, its a fact that has been proven time after time in every case for the last 15 years.

>Laws give you a way to win a lawsuit, at the very least you have that.

That's just not true. Not only can the government spy on you with impunity, the court has ruled that the government can kill you, without any due process whatsoever, and you are entirely powerless to challenge or even discover if you are on their "kill list" as long as they invoke the "state secret privilege".

https://www.techdirt.com/articles/20190924/20182043065/dc-co...

The unfortunate fact is that our legal system has failed. Instead of enforcing the law and upholding The Constitution - its most core and precious mandates - our legal system has consistently deferred to government claims about the need for absolutely secrecy and legal impunity to do whatever they deem necessary.

I have used them for years, and almost exclusively for the past three or so. I own about 8 (3 in active use, ~2 only useful for parts). Kensington Expert Mouse (USB, not wireless) is my main model - I use three of them daily (2 at home, 1 at work).
FYI: I know of no person who's formed a habit around LSD (MDMA is another story). I know at least four people who either did or do LSD weekly, and at least two of those weren't microdosing. Anecdotally, LSD is habit forming the way watching sunsets is habit forming.

It's perhaps worth noting that the with the venerable GNU Screen, you can more or less achieve this by enabling multiuser mode and then doing screen -x.
These and the Ploopy are right-hand use only, which seems unfortunate. I use trackballs with my left hand (I am right handed, but on the left is much closer to the letter keys, and my right hand joints are worse).

I currently use a Kensington Expert Mouse (well, three of them!), which despite the name is a trackball. It has a great ambidextrous design, and a scroll ring that's really easy to use (you can use thumb and finger to walk it around, or go round and round without lifting your finger). That Microsoft/Ploopy scroll wheel would destroy my thumb in no time.

I previously used several (cheaper) Logitech TrackMan Marbles, which have a smaller ball, but their main problem is the lack of scrollwheel/ring.

No, laziness has nothing to do with iterating over the file multiple times. If you perform three separate operations on the same file (as the first, naive version does), you will iterate over the file three times regardless of the evaluation strategy.

The high memory usage is related to the lazy evaluation of the arguments to the “go” function. When these arguments are evaluated strictly, iterating over the file three times would increase running time by a factor of three, but the memory usage would still be low (ie. roughly proportional to the file size).

Another reason why people are doing this is to protect it from getting "even more lost". An item sitting on the road might be picked up by dogs, kicked away by mistake, or get dirty from people stepping on it. Putting it on the nearest fence puts it out of harm's way.
Pray tell, what sort of playbook is America's destabilizing of multiple democratic governments derived from? What playbook was used to lie to the American people and commit war crimes in Iraq, Afghanistan, Yemen?

This perspective that American interference in democratic political processes around the globe is "righteous and justified" must be coming from some book, somewhere.

Which one?
I use trackballs left handed - there are several symmetrical ambidextrous models available. I feel like I'm promoting overly much in this thread, so please just see my other comments for what I use!
Writing Haskell is almost trivial in practice. You just start with the magic fifty line {-# LANGUAGE ... #-} incantation to fast-forward to 2017, then add 150 libraries that you’ve blessed by trial and error to your cabal file, and then just write down a single type signature whose inhabitant is Refl to your program. In fact if your program is longer than your import list you’re clearly doing Haskell all wrong.

It's that, by their own demonstration, the language is nowhere near as good as they say it is. What does "underrepresented" even mean, in this context? It is not used much because it is a PITA to get tolerable performance, where the C code -- and, moreso, the C++ code -- written in the most naive way is near optimal.

I am not going to bother demonstrating the parallel C++ version, but you already know it will be only a little longer than the naive one, and quite a lot faster than the Haskell one.

I don't doubt that's a factor. But I also know that I have a very long track record of successfully negotiating circumstances that others deem untenable and I've actually taken college classes in subjects such as Negotiation and Conflict Management.

Nonetheless, I am consistently and insistently told that I am simply lucky as the entire explanation for those outcomes. It doesn't matter how reasonably I engage, I'm outright dismissed in a manner consistent with the idea that no woman is capable of having useful skills that substantially influence the odds that they will remain safe.

No matter how clearly I state that luck is always a factor in all situations and so forth, I get basically this la, la, la not listening! response.

This has been a consistent pattern across various forums for many years. Ergo, my conclusion that it boils down to an assumption that women can't actually be competent that I stated in some other comment here.

Please note the absolute lack of any kind of evidence in any of the claims you have quoted/forwarded as propaganda against Russia.

Evidence: that is what is needed. Not claims from authority figures, which - particularly in America - is not currently a politically trustworthy means of gaining understanding of world events at the moment.

Real evidence connecting the Kremlin with the IRA should be easy to find. Or, are you only reporting the reports?
