Your situation reminds me of how I felt having to write server side + Vue. You could try out Elixir LiveView ( https://github.com/phoenixframework/phoenix_live_view ). It’s been great being able to drop Vue (or React) and just do server side rendering. Better it eliminates the need to write separate data APIs. Of course it doesn’t work with PWAs. But the responsiveness is surprisingly good.

I can't believe the amount of hate and flaming and demonization of a lady I've seen online as this one, she cared about people and the poor and the abused, I think our country is losing its way, and I don't know when we'll ever see her kind of compassion on the bench again.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eddie_Gallagher_(Navy_SEAL)

"Gallagher was acquitted on all but one of the charges he faced on July 2, 2019. He was found guilty of posing for a photograph with the teenager's corpse in violation of Uniform Code of Military Justice article 134, "General article"."

And the justice decision was made by a jury, Trump had nothing to do with it:

"The jury for Gallagher's court-martial was composed of five enlisted men, including a Navy SEAL and four Marines, plus a Navy commander and a Marine chief warrant officer, after the defense had rejected several other candidates."

The pardon of Trump was for the demotion and the prison time. Where do you see any information that he considered a "war criminal" after his trial?

How is doing something exactly as it’s spelled out in the Constitution a “power grab”?

Alternatively, McConnell could have called the vote and the Republican majority in the Senate could have just voted it down.

It's easy to come up with these kinds of excuses for not tolerating the opinions of people you disagree with. If you disagree with me about abortion, you are either trying to murder babies (and hence I shouldn't have to be civil to you) or you're trying to control women's bodies (and hence I shouldn't have to be civil with you). If you disagree with me about health care reform, that's a life and death issue and hence I shouldn't have to be civil with you. If we disagree about a military intervention, that's a life and death issue and I shouldn't have to be civil with you.

Justice Ginsburg and Justice Scalia disagreed on just about all of these issues and got along fine. I don't think that's because they didn't care about their respective principles and about the issues that were at stake. I think it's because, as a point of fact, we have to live in a society with each other regardless of our differences. And most of those differences are genuinely rooted in good or at least understandable intentions in the first place.

> The war wasn’t started by Obama so I’m not sure what your point is

Never said anywhere Obama started this war. I am talking about the media constantly ignoring Yemen, except when a drone strike kills a civilian and the drone strike happens to be from a President they despise. How strange!

I can't remember Obama strikes causing so much embarrassment during the last administration. Surely there is absolutely no journalistic bias at play.

The kicker was their software crashed regularly on that machine even under light use...

> The question of "does friendship compromise integrity of systems over time?" is quite fascinating, and there are many examples across many countries that show "yes, yes it does."

I think this is probably true in legislative bodies and in government agencies - for the same reason: both promote deal making because there's something to be gained.

One of the reasons the SC Justices are seated for life is precisely to blunt that effect. They can be friends without needing to make deals because they really don't get anything out of a deal - and one hopes they fully appreciate the gravity of their position.

The Court is a sort of unique entity in that it doesn't need (I don't think) to be confrontational in order to be effective. It is the one place where one would think, true wisdom reigns. And by and large, that is what I see from SCOTUS' decisions.

It's a sign of an intelligent, mature mind to be able to contain contradictory ideas without losing your identity. Being friends with someone on the other side of the political aisle, in a group as small as the supreme court, I would think has the effect of improving the quality of their deliberations and little else.
Yes but the Electoral College is House+Senante.

While I agree in general, I work in the VFX industry as a software dev writing a renderer that's used for blockbusters, and one situation where CG still isn't quite "there" yet IMO is fluid effects and explosions (which is somewhat combined with the simulation of them as well as the rendering).

So much iteration time can go into attempting to get the right "shape" of the simulation, as well as "colours" (smoke, combustion, flame), whether via a black-body spectral shader or a more artist-driven one, and it's very difficult to get people to agree on what looks "real" or "right", especially compared to say hard-surface rendering.

Doing it practically (assuming the correct scale, and fuels were used) might (depending on directors and producers' opinions) make people "just" accept that the result is "realistic", and remove a lot of the uncertainty, at the very least just because they can't tweak things afterwards, and what was recorded is the result they get, as opposed to having a team of 10s of people iterating for months (including lots of compute time for simulations and rendering) trying to get something the people at the top are happy looks "real".
50/50 split means the Vice President decides. Game over.
>How many people were killed by wars started in the previous administration? I'll let you ponder on that.

You're whatabouting really hard, and so I threw it back in your face. You complain about Obama "starting wars"? Well he didn't start any wars - that was GW Bush who started wars, and it was under GW Bush that 500,000+ humans were killed, not Obama.

So if you want to demonize someone, you might not want to lie about it and say they started wars when they didn't, and completely ignore the fact that the one who did start the wars actually killed an atrocious amount of people.

I don't know the answer to your question, specifically.

But it might be helpful to know that the power/strength of light diminishes according to the inverse-square law. That is, if one doubles the distance, there is quarter the amount of light falling on a given area (vis: it is quarter of the strength), and, vice versa, if one halves the distance, the amount of light increases four-fold.

Due to this rate of fall-off, it means that it is much more effective if the light source is closer.

This is just a nonsense divisive ans dismissive classification. It's called asking people not to do bad things and not doing bad things. Pretty simple.

Well, one is the claim that Democrats don't get anything done because they have a secret commitment to keep things the way they are so that voters have a reason to come back to the polls for them, and I'm saying maybe the reason is simply that Democrats are mostly fine with the way things are. Maybe your point is that this is a distinction without a difference, which I guess I'd mostly have to agree with.
Explain to me what’s “dishonest propaganda” about the National Review article?

1) Going back to the 1800s is routine in the legal world to understand what is accepted practice in our system. After all, the relevant rules haven’t changed since 1789. Aren’t examples from people who created this system particularly relevant to understanding how it’s supposed to work?

2) The SCOTUSblog article goes through the exact same examples as the National Review article for the 20th century. The only difference is that the National Review article looks at whether different parties control the Presidency/Senate. What is “propaganda” about that? The Senate and Presidency are political branches that are supposed to be at odds, potentially. Is there any reason to assert that this political rivalry shouldn’t extend to Supreme Court appointments? Is it “propaganda” to even posit the idea?

No, the US never declared war on Libya. WTF are you even????

If you want to talk about how many people presidents have killed, let's start with GW Bush, who actually did declare war.

Sorry, the US was never "at war" with Libya.

Here's what actually happened:

>“The military mission of the United States is designed to implement the Security Council resolution, no more and no less.… I mean protecting civilians against attacks from Qaddafi’s forces and delivering humanitarian aid.” The following day, Clinton’s deputy, James Steinberg, said during a Senate hearing, “President Obama has been equally firm that our military operation has a narrowly defined mission that does not include regime change.”

No, we did not declare "war" on Libya. Get your facts straight. You're not at all arguing in good faith.

> The frustrating thing about the center is the propensity to take things at face value, no matter how bad faith. It has been patently obvious for decades that the Republican party plays by a thoroughly cynical playbook. A credulous centrist elite accepts each new plot twist as the status quo, after a genteel interval of whining.

It took me a long time to realize this, but I don't think "bad faith" or "cynicism" is the right way to look at how these Republican politicians are behaving. Both of those terms still imply a certain level of respect for the humanity of the other party and a desire to create some consensus, even if through subterfuge.

No, the Republicans are acting like Democratic politicians are enemies in war. It's not "cynical" to hide information from or mislead the enemy. It's just battle tactics. They aren't trying to reach consensus, they are trying to destroy.

We can compare the stated philosophies of RBG against those of the two most recent nominees and the shortlisted candidates put forth in the past week and see that they're very different. It seems very plausible to guess that, given a large majority, these people will enact these philosophies. No?

Once OSX on ARM arrives, this would be a lot easier; however, I'd expect Apple's silicon would be a lot newer (and have more instructions) than the rpi's, so it might not end up being possible/feasible.
FF/EMT here. Love our radios. Super reliable. All the data stuff is crap. Our terminals and mapping are always losing connections. Same with paper maps. We still have big ones on our wall in the bay.

That spec is just a draft, and still undergoing revision. Its close in spirit to a Scheme RFI (request for implementation). Until the consortium ratifies it (ie, members state their intention to implement it), its just a wishlist. A well-reasoned wishlist, but a wishlist just the same.

The slave holders and segregationists were Democrats. You can tell that because modern Democrats claim the FDR and the New Deal as their own, but the New Deal coalition included the segregationist “solid south.” (Which at the time had anti-big business agrarian leanings.)

It's O(n) to gather and to scatter. So it's definitely expensive if you are doing only a single pass.

But if you are doing any big o bigger than O(n) (ex: matrix multiplication, which is O(n^2.4) or so), then it's relatively cheap. Indeed, optimized matrix multiplications transpose the data to speed it up!!

There is something to be said about gather and scatter patterns as a methodology, especially as a first step into optimizing your algorithms. It's not the ultimate speed form, but relatively straightforward and simple to implement.

It's completely possible—and I say preferable—to hold starkly contrasting political or legal views

> He declared the nomination "null and void" based on no precedence, case law, and certainly not any interpretation of the Constitution.

Ultimately a legislator's job isn't to respect precedence or case law. It's to create new law (and presumably precedent).

I don't think your point is unfounded, I just think arguing for a legislator to behave like a judge takes away from that point (unless you have a good argument why they should, but I think including that argument would be good at that point).
Why would anyone believe Democrats would behave differently after they spent all of last year again threatening to pack the Supreme Court?
You have really insightful legal comments here most of the time but anyone supporting Mitch's 100% hypocritical stance on this is laughable.
