Yeah, that is a kind of postmodern take on the situation that I have some sympathy for. I do think this attitude could lead to a kind of quietism about a problem we could actually make a dent in though, if we did some things differently.

I think we should think about the destruction of traditional journalism not as some inevitable natural evolution, like the tide coming in washing away our sand castle, but instead as a historical, political development with high stakes, winners and losers. We should fight against it, not just passievly "adapt."

That doesn't mean replicate exactly what was there before, but I don't think we have to just acquiesce before a now permanently incomprehensible world and give up on ever understanding it, either.

It certainly can be but not in the way you are suggesting. Every child's diet is set by their parents. Children can develop plaque in their arteries too. And when they become independent they will likely continue the diet that was started in childhood.

It's interesting. I played a round of golf, on a golf cart, a day for a few days last week and by the end of the third day I was out of it.

I think a responsible way to look at vitamin D right now is:

- There was an association shown between low serum levels and bad COVID-19 outcomes, but low vitamin D is an indicator of frailty, so it was how much of this relation was causal.

- Now we have some early data that sure makes it look causal and it seems to be a significant effect, but it's not watertight yet.

- We know that a big fraction of us have low vitamin D levels with other health consequences from it.

- Taking a moderate dose of vitamin D now seems like a reasonable hedge: low risk of health consequences, and a decent chance of health benefits even if it doesn't protect us from the pandemic.

How does he know the owner originally bought it to squat on it or for some other purpose? Or that he isn’t using it for other purposes that aren’t visible.

Just because the owner is willing to sell it now doesn’t imply that (I’m not saying he isn’t a squatter either).

You take the stance that maybe folks on this thread didn’t read the post but then selectively ignore the context underlying the argument the Op is making.

My point is there are assumptions here that may not be true. Calling the owner here a squatter simply because he feels entitled to the domain because it’s his last name is different than making a statement that squatters in general are toxic (separate from this context).

You can’t separate the two and simply ignore the situation here as if he’s making “just” a general statement that squatters are bad. There is a level of entitlement and assumption being made here, or not communicated clearly, that shouldn’t be ignored (for this specific context) just to go broad and argue whether we think squatters are toxic or not.

It’d be an entirely different argument if this post was about why domain squatters are toxic. But within this context, you can’t even say with certainty that the owner is in fact a squatter. And that’s before we discuss the issue of domain squatting.

I don't think people realize how much of an effect google has had on shaping the internet over the past decade. I get the impression that most people think Google is just following-along with the trends/changes occurring on the internet, rather than being the driving/molding force. And the fact that Google is politically biased internally should also be equally worrying.
There is a global recession out there, of the kind that only happens once every 3 or 4 decades.

That’s about 60,000 IU? Not necessarily out of line for such interventions. In cases of deficiency doctors will often prescribe weekly doses of 50,000 I believe. Have also seen RCT on vitamin d and the flu where groups where given 250,000-500,000 IU’s in one shot.

....obviously nobody reading this should take anything near those doses without consulting a doctor and without knowing your current blood level, to be clear.

Wasn't the big push (or maybe big PR push) for more research and development of Thorium reactors a few years ago because they fail closed/safely? That seems like the kind of thing you'd want for smaller reactors (which I assume means more and more geographically diverse, but don't really know).

Passage below is where he really mentions Dawkins:

> The epitome of this line of thought came with militant atheist Richard Dawkins’s book The Selfish Gene—a work that insisted all biological entities were best conceived of as “lumbering robots,” programmed by genetic codes that, for some reason no one could quite explain, acted like “successful Chicago gangsters,” ruthlessly expanding their territory in an endless desire to propagate themselves. Such descriptions were typically qualified by remarks like, “Of course, this is just a metaphor, genes don’t really want or do anything.” But in reality, the neo-Darwinists were practically driven to their conclusions by their initial assumption: that science demands a rational explanation, that this means attributing rational motives to all behavior, and that a truly rational motivation can only be one that, if observed in humans, would normally be described as selfishness or greed. As a result, the neo-Darwinists went even further than the Victorian variety. If old-school Social Darwinists like Herbert Spencer viewed nature as a marketplace, albeit an unusually cutthroat one, the new version was outright capitalist. The neo-Darwinists assumed not just a struggle for survival, but a universe of rational calculation driven by an apparently irrational imperative to unlimited growth.

It goes on to discuss an alternative to the neo-Darwinist view and brings back to the core thesis of the piece, play. I'd really just massacre the thesis if I summarized it so if you find that interesting or disagree I'd really read his piece I linked above!
I don't think there's a lot to understand. The issue is classes and hooks deal with complexity the in opposite ways.

Working with hooks drops you into programming with functions instead of objects. The component lifecycle in the background rather than foreground and state becomes spread out into different layers of functions instead of centralized.

They are two very different modes of thinking. I came in very late to React. After digging through the classes I inherited from a previous developer, I was struggling to understand what was happening. After reading up on hooks, I immediately got what React was and was able to understand classes better.

Of course, now the app has both classes and hooks. Any future developer who comes along will have fun with that.

It does reset, because toggling that flag will unmount the old instance of the component, and then mount a new instance.

This is the same behavior as has always existed with class components and `this.setState()`. Component-scoped state only exists as long as that specific instance of the component is mounted.

It’s actually pretty decent. It can make errors in the case of people with extreme muscle mass, or very low muscle mass for their size, or the very short, or the very tall.

I think Graeber's point is that occasionally publishing writers like this gives the Guardian a kind of fake left cred that then makes their attacks on the left (which can be relentless, as in the case of Corbyn) much more powerful.

Below his pinned tweet on the Guardian is this tweet from him, mentioning the writer of the opinion piece you link (Aditya Chakrabortty):

> this is the "cred" they built up by publishing people like me, .@OwenJones84, .@GeorgeMonbiot, .@chakrabortty - all of whom I very much respect. They used us so no one would believe they would simply lie to destroy any chance of a left gov't. But that's exactly what they did. - https://twitter.com/davidgraeber/status/1210323190402162704

I actually respect David Graeber a whole lot more than the others he mentions here because he didn't let his access to the Guardian stop him from calling them out. Going as far as to say he wouldn't write for them again.

I think that this is a great question that isn't asked nearly enough. There are all sorts of stories about companies moving up market successfully, but I'd love to see more written about the cases where it's attempted and failed. The DNA of enterprise vs SMB SaaS is really different.

For what it's worth, I would guess that had Optimizely not pivoted to the enterprise they would indeed be smaller, but more importantly would have had a slower growth rate at least at that point in time. In an industry obsessed with high growth rates that's the kiss of death and I imagine the reason behind their pivot. But that's just my guess.
Both this post and the original that inspired it a pretty well balanced, and don't really say anything close to "Email sucks, let's do everything different!" which is good. I guess I'm just old enough now that I've been reading "Death to email" and "This new thing is going to replace email" for so long I now thing nothing will ever replace email. I bet at some point I even thought "Death to email" and now email is just a part of life.

I liked this quote from the linked Register article:

“I’m not saying that there will be a move in any time that I can see – my crystal ball’s broken – but I do think there needs to be expansions in the way people can enter that workflow,”

I think that's a good way to look at this entire email thing, not just as it applies to the Linux Kernel, but in general.
I hope the entire advertising targeting business goes bankrupt, and anything that depends on it goes with it.

Given the App Store antitrust lawsuit and "big bully" PR issue that Apple is facing, they probably realize that now would be a terrible timing for them to flex their muscles and crush a multi-billion dollar ecosystem (even if it's the ethical thing to do).

Facebook's concern isn't oriented around their revenue - it's about the 3rd party advertising ecosystem on mobile in general ($2B of FB's $80B revenue). FB and Google will take a small hit from their 3rd party mobile ad networks going away, but they still have their dominant 1st party businesses to fall back on.

Who this really hurts are the apps that don't directly sell their own ads and rely on a 3rd party network to monetize. Those apps' revenues will be chopped in half overnight, sending a shockwave throughout the entire mobile ecosystem.

FB and Google get poked in one eye, but most ad-supported apps will be blinded.
It's also not spelled "paediatrician" in American English, hence the confusion.

Graeber was a talented polemicist who had a loose relationship with the truth. For example, in the first edition of his book, Debt, he wrote

Apple Computers is a famous example: it was founded by (mostly Republican) computer engineers who broke from IBM in Silicon Valley in the 1980s, forming little democratic circles of twenty to forty people with their laptops in each other's garages...

He gave conflicting explanations (https://delong.typepad.com/sdj/2013/01/the-very-last-david-g...) for that quote, but at the very least it shows how uncareful he was as a scholar.

That aside, you're absolutely right on the purpose of class actions. Generally the cause of action for individual case members is prohibitively small anyways. It's to form big legal sticks to beat misbehaving companies with, not to make the injured parties (whose injuries are usually pretty small in your average class action) whole.
The problem is heat. fission produces a ton of it and it has to go somewhere. Yes, you can absorb radiation thrown off by fission, but you still have the problem that heat will melt everything.

So you throw water (or salt) on the reactor, heat it up, and do work with the steam that is ultimately produced.

It has less to do with steam being the ideal route and more to do the the practicality of dealing with heat.

AFAIK, most reactors are closed loops anyways, so there's not much of an issue with water carrying away radioactive materials.

People had been arguing about editors for roughly two decades at that point; the 1980s had already seen the archiver wars (ZIP versus ARC versus ARJ versus LHA versus ZOO versus ...); and the early 1990s had already seen DOS+Windows 95 versus OS/2.
