Essnetially (and i'm really boiling it down here) he argues two main points and connects them to form that conclusion:
First, that the wider phenomenon clearly shows evidence of being a tangible thing with highly varied but in certain ways similar physical manifestations across an enormous span of human history. This is a thing which weakens the probability of it merely being iconography based on individual psychology or myth making.

Secondly, this being the case, those widespread, long-running physical manifestations indicate something more subtle than mere UFO visits that only began during recent history.

Ergo, we're looking at something external, at least partially physical and because it has affected our belief systems and legends, and thus quite possibly a sort of control system. (This last one is a bit more of a leap but the first two main arguments are covered fairly well in his books).

Nice. Apart from the security incident that took place long time ago, are there any reason why everyone is going straight to DO instead of Linode?

For a long time Linode has had better features, performance and bandwidth. It wasn't until recently DO had Managed DB and many other additions.

Linode's High Memory Plan also has much better Memory : CPU Ratio.

Still waiting for their CDN, ( Not sure why they are not exposing it and instead requires going through CS ), Managed DB and Bare Metal. Once those three are in place, ( and well tested ) It should provide decent competition to the HyperScalers.

The scenario ends at the 18-month point, with 65 million deaths. The pandemic is beginning to slow due to the decreasing number of susceptible people. The pandemic will continue at some rate until there is an effective vaccine or until 80-90 % of the global population has been exposed. From that point on, it is likely to be an endemic childhood disease."

"The Event 201 scenario
Event 201 simulates an outbreak of a novel zoonotic coronavirus transmitted from bats to pigs to people that eventually becomes efficiently transmissible from person to person, leading to a severe pandemic. The pathogen and the disease it causes are modeled largely on SARS, but it is more transmissible in the community setting by people with mild symptoms."

OK Mr Literal, you're saying when you search for "Las Vegas hotels" you want the results to exclude the entirety of the Strip, "Dallas football stadium" to exclude where the Cowboys play, and "American airlines reservations" to provide the web site or phone number for Delta (which is, technically, an American airline.)
I routinely go for 3 hour bikes rides where using a phone is not worth the risk attached lol.

I love these bike rides and do a lot of thinking. But it’s not the same as when I was a kid and daydreaming and I’m not sure why.

Maybe my mind is just more structured? So rather than meandering I end up think about more introspective/pragmatic things?

Calling it "backtracking" feels strange. They still want to put favicons in there, but as pointed out, the positioning is misleading since it's in the same spot as the "ad" icon. They will most likely just move it to another more unique position.

It isn't just one bad decision. It's many decisions. Those decisions don't just come out of "thin air" and destroy the company. They're always a series of decisions which eventually topple over the company.

This is very well said. We need to support every single person as much as possible because each choice is extremely costly and precious.
With state sponsored terrorism, the risk isn't that the Feds will put the agent away forever, it's that the USG (and, incidentally, other particularly allowed countries) will identify that it is state sponsored terrorism and treat the attack as exactly what it is—simultaneously and act of war and a gross violation of the laws of war.
I would definitely pay, but not through a middleman like google. We need to return to a decentralized, peer to peer internet where media companies are not beholden to advertisers (a very old problem). Technology presents the first real chance to implement this. A non-trivial part of the media’s (eg newspapers, news sites, cable news) is due to advertising, including “cancel culture” itself (the name dates back to pressuring advertisers to pressure media to cancel tv production, although the word has gained life of its own).
Pretty impressive though sometimes. I wonder if those people used their heads into something actually productive

I know byte just released, but as someone who has used TikTok for a few months now, the difference is honestly night and day.

- byte sticks to the very strict 7s limit while TikTok is a bit loser

- TikTok's use of music and re-used sounds help bring popular "trends"

- As per the above, you can quickly browse other tiktok's made from the same sound / in the given trend

- TikTok has other interesting features too such as duos, letting you reply to someone else's video, side-by-side

- TikTok's are very easy to share, and most importantly have a Web UI

- TikTok doesn't require an account, as soon as you open the app, you're dropped right into a feed of interesting videos, easy to scroll

These platforms are all about content, and TikTok having penetrated the US means it'll be very hard for byte to get users, and without users there's no content.

I personally don't think Vine really failed per-se. Twitter just didn't think it was a place worth investing, so they stagnated. TikTok as mentioned above has brought many new interesting evolutions to the format.

Most importantly, their learning based feed is pretty top notch and learns your taste very quickly.
The 3b2 didn't have a built-in screen. You'd typically use a serial terminal with them, of which there were a near infinite many to choose from in the era.

One combination that was popular would be to pair up a DMD-5620 bitblit serial terminal with the 3B2.

There's already an emulator for the DMD-5620, written by the same guy that has written an emulator for the WE2000/3b2 setup.

Of course they can. In fact I believe the definition pertains explicitly to them. My comment was in reference to the homophobic slur that being pegged is somehow wrong. Like men should feel ashamed to derive pleasure from anal sex. Regardless of whose performing said pegging.

The very first time you open the app, it does say "in loving memory of X", though I can't remember now if that name was Colin Kroll or someone else.

Yep, if not even for logging in, at the very least for sharing videos. None of my friends have TikTok but being able to easily send them links to funny ones goes a long way.
I used vscode as my daily driver for a long time, I find webstorm is a much better experience, particularly because vscode is so centred around javascript and non-js plugins are lacking. I work in consulting, so my tech stack changes every few months. Being able to swap from pycharm to phpstorm for example and have familiar keybindings is nice.

I understand how clarity may provide the programmer's intention of the query but I'd rather just pick all, so that change in code below doesn't suddenly break because you didn't sync the columns to be fetched.

> - Predictability; consuming program receives data in the same order, every time

For any joined table, you can specify table name for each '*' or add an alias last to keep the column you need instead of writing it all.

Seems specifying each column name isn't in any way crtitically bad when you can't select all but a column in SQL, which is a deficiency in the language.
How many people commenting on here have actually worked in a lab doing this kind of research? or any lab for that matter? From experience, i will say that researchers are humans too and make mistakes. Things get dropped, spilled, mislablled all the time. Mistakes may be compounded by people collaborating - i.e. researcher A makes mistake at earlier stage in the protocol and researcher B does everything correct but is building on top of that error. Also, people share work spaces where some people are more careful than others.
Maybe, but it definitely innovated where Vine stagnated and failed. The use of music, as well as other formats such as duets, and also the machine learning feed. Also, they relaxed the super strict 7s limit which helps quite a bit.

Many of those gaps take place at night. Last time I visited London, I was nastily surprised to find that the tube has a several hour gap during that time.
So insightful! It took me a while to get a "feel" for what you are saying; but you put it into words perfectly. This is especially difficult in situations like baristas or service workers of places I frequent.

One day I might be gregarious and have a conversation with the person, but most of the time I just want to get my coffee and be on my way. I've already planned my next couple steps; and stopping to chat wasn't one of them.

Then, every time I go to this place, it's a weird interaction with the service worker because I didn't pick the conversation up where we last left it, or I didn't show a keen interest in them that day. It leads to them avoiding eye-contact or "going on break" when your next in line.

So I try extra hard now to just keep to my own and not talk to anyone for the most part. Not out of being anti-social, but just knowing that I most likely won't benefit from the interaction in the long run.
I’ve found sketchy styles to be immensely useful in getting clients to focus on UX and structure rather than getting stuck on minor irrelevant details. My background is construction, and architects do the same thing with initial concepts.
It seems to me, conflating copyright infringement with theft is little better than conflating it with piracy. Both are hyperbolic.

Linode has been my primary choice over DO for some years.
Indirect buffers is another awesome feature of Emacs, that AFAIK no other editor is capable to do. You can basically clone a buffer of the current file and work in two (or more) buffers like they all belong to completely different files.

It's handy when you're writing a function that uses things declared somewhere else in the same file. Instead of jumping back and forth you just clone the buffer and you can collapse and narrow things independently.
