Assuming all tires are the same, I think this would be most applicable for weight distribution alone, but not really for the weight. For performance applications, distribution is most important

The author also did not ensure the ground was level, which of course would have an effect on the weight distribution.
> I don't think I've even seen an explicitly racist post here, despite having dead comments turned on, maybe excepting obvious trolling or spam.

This is self-contradictory. You state that you have never seen explicitly racists posts here, but then you state the exceptions of "obvious trolling or spam". How does a racist post being "obvious trolling" make it not-racist? How does a racist post being spam make it not-racist? Racism abounds in trolling and spam. Spam and trolling are similarly havens for racism.

A seat belt looks like it's worth a few micromorts per thousand miles, and they cost less than $50 per seat. A great bargain. Airbags give you diminishing returns on top of that, while costing almost 4x as much, but even if you estimate 1/10th the effectiveness of the seatbelt you're still looking at dozens of micromorts over the lifetime of a vehicle: worth it.

But $3000 for a percentage chance of a percentage chance is a lot tougher to argue for repeatedly.

Just to add to other comments: Cargo feature flags are another reason why you need to build your dependencies.

Of course, if Cargo supported pre-compiled dependencies, I am guessing that it would be smart enough to only recompile the dependencies that are using non-default features.
I sense an implied “/s” in your post. But just in case, there are in-depth critiques that include significant portions of Molyneux’s videos still up: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=Xd_nVCWPgiA

"The rule does not protect people in the majority". Hmm... Aren't women in the majority here in the United States? According to Reddit, women are fair game.
Because they're not explicitly racist. It's dogwhistling, or talking points, which almost always indicates racism.

Someone saying that black communities should be more policed by dogwhistling that disproportionate crime warrants "assertion of police presence and predictive policing" by willfully misinterpreting statistics is racist, even if it doesn't explicitly say that black people should be harassed by police.
Yes, that's interesting. And it would yield the same boiling frog effect as recommendation systems getting more extreme, because the existing audience of the creator is slowly getting dragged along.

I'm assuming it took years for Molyneux to progress from being a quirky libertarian channel to open hate. There was no single video posted that was like "I've decided I hate women", which would at least give the audience a wake up call so they can decide if they really want to be on this train.

There's a metaphysical "law" that holds that when there's some quality in the other person that ticks you off especially, if you search yourself you'll find that it's a quality you also have, don't like about yourself, and are unaware of.

What do they do well that can be transferred without basically asking the mods to do more work? Isn't it just a manpower thing? Or do they have a way of verifying expertise etc so you know you're getting answers from experts without having to moderate each comment?
My biases are probably 5+ years old, but it used to be that running PostGres on anything other than bare metal (for example, running it in Docker) was fraught with all sorts of data/file/io sync issues that you might not be able to recover from. So, I just got used to running the databases on metal (graph, postgres, columnar) with whatever reliability schemes myself and leaving docker and k8s outside of that.

Has that changed? (It may well have, but once burned, twice shy and all that).

It dramatically changes your emphasis even if you can't predict in advance.

If we have a uniform spreading, then we have to heavily lock down everything and we have to be invasive about contact tracing. We have to worry obsessively about anyone with human contact in the service industry. We have to keep people at home except for the most imperative of reasons. We have to trace even the most casual of contacts if someone gets diagnosed.

If it's mostly superspreaders, then we only really have to be careful about gatherings--sports, church, theaters, etc. We can trace in response to an outbreak because we're likely to know who is driving it. And reasonable protection measures (like wearing a mask) protect service workers against incidental contact from most contagious people.

This is the difference between massive shutdown and actually getting back to life but with some precautions.

The problem is that superspreaders are that way because they both emit high viral loads (for whatever reason) AND engage in behaviors that encourage the transmission of the diseases.

And, funny that AIDS was mentioned, because it seems like one particularly attractive, promiscuous flight attendant was responsible for a lot of the initial AIDS transmission--a classic superspreader.
Related question: what bank would you go with for a super simple euro zone llc?

The requirements are simple:

- a proper EU based IBAN

- SEPA bank transfer

- SEPA direct debit

- proper customer support

- proper web experience

- debit card

- (preferably) limited credit card support

- honest and transparent pricing

There's obviously the company's home country banks, but I'm specifically wondering about banks offering EU wide services. Either I'm not looking well enough or there isn't really a decent bank offering these services EU wide:

- Many more traditional banks don't seem to be interested in working with companies in different EU countries.

- N26 doesn't seem to do llc's.

- Revolut doesn't have a proper web client.
> Just FTR we are pretty far from accepting the far right here on HN:

I read your linked piece but came to the opposite conclusions you posted here. Reading tptacek's comment indicates to me that he thinks HN's tolerance of white supremacist content is unacceptable ("I don't believe the status quo is really acceptable...")

I also wonder about his criteria for selecting what is white supremacist content and what is not. Most of the content I see on HN that I consider white supremacist or racist content is written in the form of dog whistles and not overt statements. I personally think the prevalence of that content on HN is somewhat higher than tptacek was catching.

It might be news to you, but very few of the people who participated in the successful Russian communist revolution of 1917 were knowledgeable about the finer points of Marxism too. You don't really need that many. The rest can be useful idiots. The few knowledgeable people behind the scenes know and exploit this. 6 months before it happened, BTW, Lenin said in a lecture in Zurich that a revolution would not happen in his lifetime. But a rail car full of German cash helped things along quite nicely. So if you think this can't happen here, you should probably reconsider.

Same with Cultural Revolution in China or Khmer Rouge. Same with Nazi Germany - I seriously doubt Hans Sixpack hated Jews or Slavs all that much. In a way, Fascism was too "lifestyle branding". Germans, down and out after WW1, were sold this grand vision of Third Reich and Lebensraum stretching shore to shore on the Eurasian continent. Oh, and if you're against it, not only you'd get "canceled", you'd get shot by the nearest ditch. We're a few years out from that at the moment. In terms of tangibles outside lifestyle branding, BTW, Antifa at the time wasn't that different from fascists themselves. They wanted a communist authoritarianism, hammer and sickle and everything, while fascists wanted more of a capitalist version. Any sort of "democracy" wasn't even up for discussion.

Same with communism. Why wouldn't a "working class" Ivan Sixpack want to "own" the factory he works in? It did not occur to Ivan to think about what that'd actually mean in practice. 5 years later Ivan dies of starvation, 15 years later his extended family ends up dying in Gulag, for being "counterrevolutionary element". He did not end up improving his condition before he kicked the bucket either: the factory is now owned by the state, and it's illegal to not work there. Ivan was a useful idiot, and he outlived his usefulness. Don't be like Ivan.
I think you're confusing "simple" with "easy." You may be looking at the controls of a military helicopter for the first time - switches, knobs, buttons, joysticks, etc. and probably feel very confused. But ask any experienced pilot, "Why can't all that be replaced with a single touch-screen interface? Wouldn't that be so much friendlier and intuitive?" they'd look at you like you're out of your mind. For them, those controls are probably the most efficient interface they can imagine.

There's a strong correlation between things that are confusing for the beginners, but over time become incredibly simple to use and things that are easy to start with, but over time they become cluttered, inefficient and frustrating to use. Emacs and Org-mode are not easy to learn, but they can simplify a lot of things later.
I agree with this post for the most part, however the problem is they are not simply banning "the klan", nor it is "paradox of tolerance" as it seems we have moves beyond tolerance to acceptance.

The authoritarian left is promoting segregation, promoting speech codes, and also labeling any disagreement with their socialist / communist economic policies as "racist" or "nazi"

All of that said, before I can progress further I would love to know what you believe the "far right" is, because that is not a defined term anymore, every day conservative values and opinions (things like we should have basic immigration control, or should not have government run health care) are now labeled as "far right" and "racist" so it seems to we need a defining of the terms so I can know what you consider to be a "far right" position

Apple has provided documentation, it seems like the article describes a lack of attempt at trying?

On the Getting Started [1] page it lists three options: Apple platforms [use AuthenticationServices], Unity [use the asset from the Unity Asset Store], and "Web and Other Platforms" [use Apple JS/REST]. That "Web and Other Platforms" link provides a wealth of useful documentation [2].

Tbf, the exact word "Android" is missing, but this is an elementary school-level process of elimination that maybe Android is inferred in the words "other platforms".

Religious white nationalists want me deported or killed. Of course I don't want to be in a space where they are safe.

People say white nationalist instead of Nazi because white nationalists will always deny being Nazis. Someone being nationalist for a race should immediately bring up red flags. There are also small differences. For example some white nationalists are not necessarily antisemitic, which is a characteristic of Nazis, or might even support Israel (though you can be pro-Israel and antisemitic of course), instead focusing their hate on black people, Muslims, etc...
Foam author here. Yes it can. GitHub support is purely optional. I've improved the Getting Started guide to reflect this.
It's true. If you're not black, you can instead write them an essay on how white people victimized you or something like that so you can be an honorary black user and be allowed to post.
We're pretty confident it had a positive impact overall. Our repo boundaries match our source archive release deliverables (source tarballs) since the switch. The consistent chunking, also in the build system (i.e. components finding each other during build - before mostly packagers were exposed to this, post-switch every dev is implicitly), helped us along in splitting/modularizing/tiering especially our libraries. It's made us more conscious of dependencies and made it easier to swap things out to rejuvenate.

The community has seen some challenges with drifting apart along the way (projects isolating vs. working on common themes/initiatives), but I think this was more a side effect of overall growth than just the repo reorg. We've also since combatted it with the very successful community-wide KDE Goals election process.

We've stuck to the same ACL approach throughout, notably - you gain KDE dev rights through a peer-support process based in merit, and once you have them you can push to any repo. We mandate code review through strongly enforced social etiquette, not by ACLs.
Another issue with Sign in with Apple is the fact that their private relay has a pre-set allow-list per app for sending email to relay addresses.

This means that you must either prove ownership of domains, or pre-add email addresses to Apple's systems. I understand why they have done this, it will reduce spam considerably, but the private relay system is already designed to empower users to do this and this extra step may be impossible for some developers.

Take for example a retailer – they need to dispatch goods and use different carriers in different countries. When the user buys something they very likely want email notifications about delivery, a feature that most carriers provide. For the carriers to send those notification emails you'll need to pre-add them all to Apple's systems. You can't prove domain ownership because fedex.com isn't your domain, but where are those emails going to come from? Better hope your carrier doesn't change sending address at some point or the email goes into a black hole.

Apple also limits the number of domains and addresses you can send from. In the original documentation it was "10 domains and addresses" (not sure if 10 of each, or 10 total). This was raised to 100 I believe, but that's still probably an issue for larger multi-national companies, or those who necessarily have to integrate with many external services.

The really hard-line privacy stance is that the retailer shouldn't share the emails and should do the notifications themselves, but for many this is prohibitively difficult to do, or at least detracts from places where the retailer can actually add value. The benefits are also very small, as the contracts with carriers typically protect user data, require deletion quickly after delivery, and retain most privacy benefits while allowing for a good UX.
> white supremacists

most are actually white separatists, but labelled "supremacist".

Its not about hating other cultures, but about preserving your own, like how Native Americans have exclusive spiritual rituals that outsiders are not allowed to attend.

Imagine calling jews who want to have their own country in Israel "jewish supremacists".

Your post used the words "supremacists", "hate", "nazi", "racist", and "toxic". BINGO!
Can this be because your group of "white nationalists" is getting very big and possibly includes a good number of innocent people?

Someone wrote something really interesting here somewhere a couple of days ago:

every time a non-racist says something not correct enough or God forbid even wrong (e.g. on twitter), they are ejected into the other camp. Eventually the other camp's grown from a fringe phenomenon to being noticeably large and everyone laments.

https://developer.apple.com/documentation/sign_in_with_apple... is more “direct” than most of the documentation I’ve seen on how to implement “OAuth” with other providers. (Trying to figure out how to integrate with “Microsoft 365” is particularly painful...)

Eventually you might realize it’s based on an open standard https://openid.net/2019/09/30/apple-successfully-implements-... and that it’s relatively similar to other such standards, except with the option to mask your email, etc.

As an geeky end user, the only way I trust these services for login is if I can link more than one, or even more than one email from the same provider. That way I know I’ll have a backup in case I lose access to the social network or email address that I signed in with... it’s annoying when I can’t add a password or set an email just because I also want to login without a password sometimes...

I'm of the opinion that most of lodash should just be incorporated into vanilla javascript, as part of its standard library. It could be done similarly to Python (or any language, really), and just group each collection of functions by usage (like itertools in Python groups tools for iteration).

Once people stop feeling the need to reach for third-party packages to accomplish day-to-day tasks maybe there'll be more freedom to move away from the way npm is the way it is today.

Might be bad for you, but probably not bad for Americans. The people have spoken and the corporations are doing their bidding. Sounds like what most people want from their government. This as opposed to China, where an autocrat is deciding what to do and enforcing his will onto his subjects. Whether it's ethical or not is besides the point, because otherwise this conversation just devolves into a discussion on the merits of democracy.
> "the person doesn't need supplimental support to have a productive path forward"

I'm not really suggesting otherwise. For many, I think you DO need continuous support. Not for everyone, the vast majority of homeless folks you've never seen on the side of the street and simply just poor. But some segment of the population, typically through some form of mental illness, needs continued support.

That's support we as a society can provide, like many other countries do. Or it's support that we can withhold and allow folks to live in deep inhumane poverty.

But if we choose to provide support to these folks, it's likely that it starts with housing.
