> You say that as though people aren't susceptible to influence form malicious actors spouting propaganda.

If that's the case, we'd have to shut down every news and media organization.

> Every news paper, book publisher, TV channel or other media outlet, ever, has exerted editorial discretion over the content they choose to make available.

That's the point. Is amazon a platform or a publisher. I think we've allowed major tech companies to be ambiguous for far too long. As a society, we should force the major tech companies to decide once and for all. If they want to be publishers fine, then they should be responsible for all the content. If they want to be a platform, then they shouldn't be allowed to censor and only take down illegal content.

These tech companies shouldn't be allowed to eat the cake and have it too.
What do you suppose would motivate someone who just looked at an image to start talking about eye strain? Maybe the pain behind their eyes started them thinking about the last time they had this problem?

Actual green screen phosphors are much lower saturation (and brightness) than the green on black image on that github page. That particular green would be more at home on a Hemp Festival advertisement. It's - to me - an interesting example of how terminal emulators are definitely emulators.

This would be pretty close to what a brand new 'green screen' might look like, and older ones would be faded: https://cf.ydcdn.net/latest/images/computer/_OPAL1.GIF

A reasonable overview of saturated colors:
https://uxmovement.com/content/why-you-should-avoid-bright-s...

Pure white on a bright (saturated) blue background is probably the worst color pairing you can get. I agree. But I'm not talking about saturated blue, or pure white. I'm talking about light (pale, if you like that word better) blue and off-white (in the ballpark of "easier on the eyes", but that's not quite right).

This is Wordperfect's blue, which is a bit darker than we used (probably closer to YAST2's color scheme):

>We would actually have to observe the quantum properties experimentally to confirm the theory.

While not directly quantum properties of gravitational waves yet, we've already observed quantization of gravitational potential (and that naturally suggests "gravitational quantas" at least by similar machinery as with EM->QM) - at small scales/energies when the spacetime curvature can be not paid attention to, the gravity potential of an ultra-cold neutron quantizes just nice using the Schrodinger equation in full agreement with experimental observation - https://www.physi.uni-heidelberg.de/Publications/dipl_krantz... . In my view, giving the amount of clarity in gravitation as well as in QM that experiment produced, it is worth of a Nobel.
red on black is better for me. green on black is the next best.
You can't run Europe on a single 1000km line running out of the Sahara over the Mediterranean. Period. Not only would a sea cable need to follow the surface of the bottom of the ocean (therefore the line would be much longer), it would experience significant power loss as it gets stepped down from higher voltages as it distributes across Europe. It's not technically feasible at all. You would lose anywhere from 20-50% from transmission. No joke. Resistance happens. A superconductor would fix this problem. You wouldn't have to send power over dangerously high voltages to save power.

Except Sound Transit has come in under budget and ahead of schedule on other recent light rail projects. Or, at the very least they've come in on schedule.

ST3 costs you 0.5% sales tax, 0.8% motor vehicle excise tax, and a property tax of 25 cents per $1,000 in assessed value over 25 years. If you have a million dollar home, you'll pay $6,250 in additional property taxes. With a hundred thousand dollar car you'd still need to be spending hundreds of thousands a year on taxable stuff.

So yeah, you are wealthy and are being asked to put in more than some others. But you'll still see benefits -- light rail stations increase local business, remove vehicles from the road, pollute less, and you'll help leave a legacy for your children and your community.

> This number is so low only because the driving majority subsidizes the public transit riding few. Fortunately, only 10% of people in Seattle commute via public transit...

Have a source for that? Because from what I've read 25% of commuters use a single occupancy vehicle (car or motorcycle), 10% use a rideshare (car/vanpool), 49% uses transit, and 10% use walking or biking. [1] And the number of transit commuters is on the rise overall.

IFR separation does not have to depend on radar. Though radar procedures are the norm, there are non-radar procedures wherein ATC can issue instructions (clearances) that provide separation for airplanes who are all navigating themselves with respect to ground-based or satellite fixes. In that regard, VORs help ATC maintain separation.
From that link, it seems to be "rogue CNN contributor" rather than CNN - indeed, they forced her out 3 days after her leaking was revealed. Am I missing something that indicates it was a larger CNN issue above and beyond a single rogue contributor?

You gave examples of what I assume you consider "bad" ads. What would be examples of "good" ads in your opinion? I mean, examples matching the definition you gave:

Anticipating needs of person X, (and serve person X an ad), without any foreknowledge of person X.
another cheap trick: in late game after unlocking terraforming & Gaia transformation tech, you could turn any colony into a Gaia world apart from a colony on a toxic planet. But if you had a second colony in the system, you could gift your toxic colony to an opponent, then attack it with a stellar converter equipped fleet, fire the stellar converter to destroy the planet and convert it into an asteroid belt, then get your second colony in the system to start an artificial planet construction project to turn the fresh belt into a terraformable barren world.

It's a bit more Douglas Adams than George Lucas: apologies former citizens, you and your corrosive world needs to be vaporised to work around zoning regulations as part of the empire's galactic terraforming project.

Another fun way to play the early/mid game was to try to advance up the tech tree by scrapping captured higher tech ships. You needed large fleets of disposable ships with lots of room for boarding parties, tractor beams to pin enemies, and if possible weapons with radiation damage to kill the enemy crew before boarding. It was particularly fun and frustrating trying to capture ancient-tech antaran ships in the early/mid game (the game designers were wise enough to equip antaran ships with the quantum detonator tech giving them a very high chance to self destruct nuke their ship's drive when you tried to board them)

> finally there's the 5D conformal GA, which is supposed to not have all this nastiness, but it's hard to find anything resembing practical on it

Give Versor[0] a try. Implementation is fast, solid, with lots of example code. I'm no math genius, but it makes sense to me. The book Geometric Algebra for Computer Science was also helpful.

Pablo (Versor developer) has some nice videos and write-ups on it too.

That said, I totally agree that GA in general is WAY too abstract. I don't give a shit about the intricacies of the math, what I care about are access to geometric objects that behave normally, where it takes very little code to go from "this is what I want to do" to "okay, it's doing it." Make me a circle from these three points, then rotate it by this much about this line—that kind of thing. I want the simple stuff to be stupid simple, and so far, Versor has been sufficient.

I think I mistyped. Pardon the pun!

I meant that Lean, I think, could be implemented in Lean.

Do you also work with Lean?
The article's update provides the reason:

> Last year, The Tetris Company, Inc. and N3TWORK announced a multi-year agreement where N3TWORK will be the exclusive developer and publisher of new Tetris® games for mobile devices worldwide, excluding China. EA’s announcement that it will retire its Tetris®, Tetris® Premium and Tetris® Blitz games as of April 21 is a result of this agreement.

Kind of surprising they don't have recourse to rebrand/retool the game.
I mean for all we know this was built in semi-intentionally by a team of engineers who quietly recognized this effect of their implementation.

Wrong - we do know that the models are not incompatible. (There exists a consistent mathematical framework that includes both.) Me, I was referring to a simpler fact that these models are both pretty damn close to what Nature itself tells us.

It'll be tougher and probably take longer, but there's no real reason it can't happen. You'll notice there's nothing in the Book of Mormon about LGBTQ+ issues. Everything church leaders have said about it is quoting either the Bible or each other. I predict that eventually they'll quit talking about it (like they quit talking about birth control and working moms). There will be a period of live and let live, where gay couples can't get sealed in the temple but are welcome at church and nobody thinks any less of them, and trans kids transition and nobody pitches a fit. And eventually they'll announce a revelation that same-sex marriages are ordained of God, a bunch of fundamentalists will leave the church, and we'll be caught up with 2019 morals (in 2047 or whenever it is).

Engineers/Managers have only ever worked for the same people for the last 5 or 10 years, and have no idea what engineers look like in the wild.
Is it time to revive fuckedcompany.com yet?
Sure, I can't imagine any particular reason why that wouldn't work. That said, we don't have distribution implemented yet, since we are focused on a single node in the browser initially; so it depends on which comes first - SharedArrayBuffer being stabilized again in the browsers so we can enable multiple schedulers, or getting distribution implemented thoroughly enough to support the approach you mentioned as a workaround.

I've worked at a facilities department for a university that did infectious disease research. There were incidents of air filters and other protective systems failing and safety processes needing to be executed. It doesn't need to be stupidity but just a random failure.

And then China worrying about their international reputation attributing it to a seafood market.
I think the implication was that the virus may have escaped due to an error, and was later covered up by authorities and blamed on the local meat market.

As you say, there is no objective "good parts" of js, what exists is basically a large language that can act as a framework for you to create a language you like by leaving only what you want in the subset allowed by your linters.

That's arguably a lot of work, but the payoff is that you get to use your new hand tailored "language" anywhere js can run, which is not the case if you ignore js and just pick a language you like from the get go instead.

I could live without Twitter obviously, but I could say that for pretty much every Internet service other than maybe email. What's great about Twitter is the serendipity; I've been able to follow people with perspectives that I just don't have in my professional or personal circle, and reading/chatting with them over the years has profoundly expanded my worldview. It's not much different in that sense than HN – I could never call any thread or single day of browsing "important", but I know that what I've learned cumulatively over time has been very important.

Secondary radar is very much alive in the US. Forget to turn on your transponder (whether or not you are ADS-B out equipped) and how long until ATC notices? For me, it's usually been before I'm through 400' AGL. Or, as tjohns mentions, just look at how often your reply light flashes.

Maybe it's different in China but in most countries the labs that handle common blood tests are generic, commercial entities that follow a standard process for things to test.

They aren't doing infectious disease research and they definitely aren't checking for anything exotic.
> No, the natural conclusion is that whether two varieties are "the same language" or "different forms of the same language" is a cultural question, not a scientific one that can be answered objectively.

It's a question that linguists (who are scientists) strive to answer in ways that are useful to studying, reasoning about, and explaining language. It's not much different than the species problem in biology. Everyone knows that speciation happens gradually, but scientists still propose ways of defining and explaining speciation to aid in scientific inquiry. The labels and dividing lines themselves are not empirically observed, of course, but that doesn't mean they're unscientific or outside the purview of scientific inquiry.

That implies that Utah is (or was) a theological state, which is an accusation and stereotype the LDS Church has been fighting since before statehood.
1. Those 25 states ban this practice, and yet this practice happens in them... As well as the 25 others.

2. Did you notice the anecdote in another part of this thread where an approved, in-network procedure at an in-network hospital had an out-of-network anesthesiologist, because every single practicing anesthesiologist in the region is out-of-network?

3. As a buyer of health insurance, how can I even know, ahead of time, that there's a problem, like what was listed in #2?

4. As a non-buyer of health insurance (Because my employer chose which one to buy), even if I knew about #2, I don't even have any choice in the matter!

It's ludicrous to expect people to do all the research they need to do, to avoid getting bitten, in an industry that is as hostile to transparency as the medical billing industry. Where do you even start? [1]

> Medical billing is nonsense though. Just because someone sends you a bill does not mean you owe it or will ever have to pay it.

Is this legal advice? Because as I understand it, there are plenty of places which will happily garnish your wages over medical debt, and there are plenty of hospitals who won't write off outrageous balance bills if they discover that you actually have savings in the bank. (Oh, and the ones that will forgive it... Are robbing the public, because they get to claim that write-off on their taxes. As a taxpayer, that's my favorite part of 'charitable debt forgiveness'.)

[1] And even if you could do that research, the problem of balance billing comes from your insurer, and the hospital not agreeing on which services should have been paid for, and sticking you with the problem. You cannot predict that, at all, because it is always an after-the-fact case-by-case scenario.
I was under the impression that one of the main drivers of ADS-B is to enable smaller separation between aircraft due to the more accurate position reporting. If that's the case, then radar won't be a useful backup because planes would be closer than the radar can separate them.

> transit does in fact use roads

No - If I take the train, I’m not using the road. If I take a bus, I’m using the bus lane and I’m not using the other lanes. In fact, I can’t use them because my bus is already using the bus lane, so why should I pay for them?

To apply your logic, I’m being over-taxed by 3x too because the road is 4 lanes wide but I can only drive in one lane at a time.

See how silly this complaint is?
Yeah, PowerSave Mode definitely makes a difference, but you lose a ton of functionality (like highlighting errors, missing imports etc).
