Likewise for vitamin C.

The other is personal experience. Try eating tartare and then some cooked meat and compare digestion & satiety. With raw meat I reach satiety much quicker. Perhaps an experience closer to most is raw fish as sushi etc.
Yeah, I read the bestcomments on the weekend, to see what I may have missed in the last week. But I've no idea what the time frame those are under. Having a selectable time frame would be nice. Like, not just: past week, past month, past year, etc. But more like oct/2013-dec/2013, though that would not be as 'clean'.
Yes I think that. If Chinese actors buy all the lockheed stock eventually they'll have control. Lockheed would probably be banned from the US like Huawei is at that point but China would control it.

The word "lots" is what's called a weasel word [1]. 1000 is "lots". Is it a lot if there are a million drug dealers? How does it compare to other crime correlations? Or general rates in the population?

Your logic is fallacious. You know what has a 100% correlation with dealing drugs and committing those other crimes? Breathing. Drinking water. Eating. Correlation tells us little. Perhaps it does hint that a disregard for authority exists.

Also I'd say most of those crimes are not victimless...

My brother was considered gifted. Several of my friends were also considered gifted. Almost all of them have done well enough but nothing really too out-sized or world changing. I know one that is now homeless and another that struggles to keep crappy jobs. From my perspective, the home environment and family values makes a bigger difference in your life later than your IQ when you are little.

I still think it is lacking in this proposal to justify why picking Swift as the host language
My favorite book on the topic is "Legalize This!" by Douglas Husak arguing that we should decriminalize all drugs.

Surprisingly, the prohibition of alcohol in 1920's did not punish alcohol drinkers, just distributors. This model for drugs today would be a major improvement over the draconian treatment we have of the non-violent drug offenders.

Singapore have gone to the extreme other end and seems to be doing fine. It's not the prohibition, but the way it is enforced.

You can enable issues on forked repo, and any forked repo may receive PRs.

Still, manual repository is preferable as deleting repo will delete also its forks created using Github interface (at least it was happening some time ago)

Governments shouldn't be responsible for the outcome of their people, the individual should. This is the perspective difference we share. It's really a choice between individual freedom despite possible negative stats "addictions" vs less freedom and more government control while optimizing number of addictions. I value my personal freedom and see no reason why the government should pay for healthcare. In the USA, they caused this distorted market to begin with (see also student loan bubble)
Yeah, this stinks. I've known a few people that got pregnant at 'the wrong time', and things could have gone a lot better.

This. We created an unrealistic climate where politics is personal and not to be discussed.

Its anything but personal and it should be discussed at length whenever possible where ever possible.

The worst thing we as a society can do, is continue this idea that one should not discuss one's ideals. That's why we have so many ignorant people who find comfort in silos. They have never developed the skills necessary to think past their beliefs.

BTW: that's what a liberal education is all about. Challenging your ideals and pushing your intellectual limits. And that's a great thing for people and for humanity. Insularity breeds crazy. Always.
As someone who's been a fun of formula 1 for the first two decades of my life (mid 80s and after), essentially since I was born, and then completely got bored of the sport, I'm astonished of how much action there is in a sport that nowadays fails to deliver any action to viewers, unless you count crashes, but that's not really a very good reason to watch the sport.
Sure, it should work reliably, but it also shouldn't have unexpected dangerous behavior like OP's complaint that the average user is not aware of.

It could ship with good defaults and at some point, during setup, some introduction or when relevant conditions are met, ask the user if they want to enable that feature/behavior while giving more information about what it does and potential weaknesses. It doesn't have to be disabled forever or hidden behind some obscure feature flag.
FreeBSD Subversion to Git Migration: Pt 1 Why?
Strong disagree. I don’t get this line of reasoning at all. First of all you have multiple factions within each party that strongly disagree - on the left it ranges from extreme socialists to populist liberals (in decline) to neolibs and hawks. You had Bernie almost winning the primaries this year. On the right you have tea party libertarians, you have evangelicals, you have national populists now, and you have your neocons.

Now you could say neocons and neolibs did dominate for a while, and yea that has some truth. But it’s not so true today.

The two party system is really interesting because within each party you really do have diversity, and then they all compromise with each other. The dems are doing that this year. They have to do that, or else they lose their electorate. The parties move around constantly. Ron Paul moved the needle. Al Gore brought forward environmentalism. The Liberals have changed wildly over the last 30 years from being more middle/low class focused to being the party of the rich, of tech, and shifting towards focusing on minorities. That they were more aligned for a bit doesn’t prove anything.

Look at how Trump is remaking the right. It’s been fascinating and he’s done a sort of garbage cleaning on their platform.

Look at how Bernie’s success has radically pushed the left.
First of all thank you for all this info.

You make an excellent point about the rigged justice system: by accusing a defendant with numerous crimes, they are encouraged to skip a fair trial and take a plea bargain. This is an immense erosion of the justice system.

I am curious if there has been a comparison of hand written cursive note taking vs hand written block letter note taking.

When writing in cursive, the entire word affects how you write each letter, while in block letter writing each letter is independent. Keyboard typing is like block letter writing in that respect, and I suspect that might also be playing a role.

The Social Dilemma is a film currently showing on Netflix. The film focuses on how large tech companies exploit society for profit. If you can see the film, I highly recommend it. If you do not know what the inner workings of tech-fueled psychological operations are like, then the film will enlighten you. If you already know about the inner workings of these technologies, then you will be impressed with how well the film explains things to lay persons.

The linked article is a lengthy review of The Social Dilemma. The review contains a recap of some of the film and presents what I believe are valid criticisms of the film. The final line in the review is a good summary of the criticisms: "But as far as the film is concerned, your role in resolving this dilemma is to sit patiently on the couch and stare at the screen until a remorseful tech insider tells you what to do."

Something important to keep in mind after watching the film -- always follow the money. People who made significant amounts of money contributing to the social problems we face today are now free to make more money telling us how to address the problem. As the review points out, "When there are dangerous fires blazing everywhere it matters whether the voices that get heard are apologetic arsonists or firefighters."

I see the real problem to be that capitalism tends to give power to individuals with unbridled hubris and greed. The hubris of some people (in any field, though here we are talking about the tech industry) is stunning. In my opinion, extra layers of technology do not solve problems -- extra layers of complexity mitigate symptoms and create new problems, while decreasing the stability of the overall system. We should not hire arsonists to run fire departments.
What a fascinating story!

I found my old iPhone 3GS is a drawer in 2016. Not only did it still work fine, but it even connected to the App Store and you could still download games I’d had back in the day that werent on the phone, even though those games couldn’t run on any current iPhones. That’s a full seven years after I bought it.

Planned obsolescence my arse.
> A related trick for predicting the future; things that everyone is worried about are likely to get solved.

Not really. It's because people get used to the fear. So we need a new fear to keep the population in check. Look at HIV. It scared people for 15 years or so, but people get accustomed to it. So we moved to other viruses. The soviet fear was being eroded so we got "terror". But after a while, even terror isn't as scary so they give us new a fear - china. Once that is done, it'll be on to other fears. Fear is the fundamental way to control a population.

As far as I can tell (from other comments I came across in the past), lock-picking is such an easy thing, that going through the effort of creating a key from a photo is just a technical exercise, not a needed strategy.

It's my understanding that it's fairly common for police to arrest informants in major criminal organizations and make a show of pretending to try to prosecute them for exactly that reason.

I'm not a DFW person, but I'm assuming you're referring to The Office?

If that is the case, then Ribbonfarm has an excellent (and in depth) piece on how The Office portrays modern life.

https://www.ribbonfarm.com/the-gervais-principle/

In essence, Michael never got fired because he is the graphite control rod in the reactor of capitalism. A clueless person that posture-talks to all, but is baby-talked to back. His class absorbs the hits for his sociopath bosses that come from the loser employees. He can't be fired because if his class was removed, then the cycle of strikes would start up again. He is a sacrificial galvanic anode, rusting away to save the ship.

At least per what Ribbonfarm says.

It's not a kind look at The Office.

In this project, PVC pipes are used. These pipes are in danger of freezing when surrounding temperatures are nearly 20 degrees Fahrenheit.

> because many law abiding citizens who otherwise would have never touched the drug may whimsically decide to try it

They likely wouldn't. Most drugs aren't socially accepted, the gas station wouldn't stock them (and that's usually not what people ask for when they talk about legalization).

Consider LSD. It's illegal, heavily so. But there's 1P-LSD, it's a "research chemical" and very similar to LSD. It has been legal for a few years (and still is in many countries) and has only been made a controlled substance in parts of Europe last year.

If illegality was what kept people away from drugs, you'd expect to have seen a lot of normal people tripping in the last year. But you haven't (okay, maybe you have, it would explain a lot of things, wouldn't it?), and it was really only used as an easily obtainable and legal alternative to LSD by people who want an LSD-like drug because they know LSD.
EDIT: calling all CEOs and COOs, don't you want to take all your conference calls from your hot tub in Aspen??

(Moving my most important point higher in the post)

Gonna use some reverse(reverse * 1/-reverse)^(reverse*reverse)) psychology here and say this to all the CEOs and COOs out there:

Keep everyone at home for these awesome reasons!

1) Save money on an expensive office lease. I will find a lawyer to get you out of an existing lease!

2) Gain access to a larger labor pool by hiring remote developers. Again I will hire you a lawyer since there are laws that affect this depending on where your company is located on paper.

3) Make your life better by not having to pay expensive city rent and deal with frustrating city commutes- whether you are a CEO rich or poor, moving around the world and a city even in a private jet or black limo will always be more stressful than taking a conference call from your hot tub in ASPEN!!!!

Everyone will have a different experience - it’s difficult to fathom the scale of how much work is being done at these companies from the outside.

Consumers often have the mistaken assumption that they know what a large tech company is basically doing. In reality, there are thousands of projects, most of which you’ll never hear about.

In my experience people are more affected by their manager and working group than the company clashing with their ideals.

That's total nonsense. I browse with uMatrix blocking everything by default and I rarely need to enable xhr to make a site work. Most of the time it's only used to bloat a site, not deliver the actual content. The same is mostly true of javascript as well.

This is particularly true on newspaper websites. A great many news sites are reasonable with everything disabled but utter cancer by (typical) default.
> (outcome using controlled dataset: 40 white to 52 black faces chosen). But that comment is heavily downvoted.

Maybe because

1) If that's the comment you refer to, it also contains the claim "Misleading - it seems to be looking for contrast" which as far as I see isn't provably true?

2) in the end tweet of the experiment it's claimed: "I've created @cropping_bias
to run the complete the experiment. Waiting for @Twitter
to approve Dev credentials" and the https://twitter.com/cropping_bias is still empty at the moment?

Edit: personally, the interesting experiments for me are like "a person against a drawing" -- the simpler the competition is the bigger the chance to figure out what the "preference" could be:

Best Sellers Sell the Best Because They’re Best Sellers
They are largely the same because the alternatives fail in various ways: they fail to finance their campaigns, i.e. they fail to get aristocratic backing, and/or they fail to appeal to the tiny minority of most motivated participants, i.e. primary voters.

Also, the two parties have conspired to put in all kinds of barriers, at the state and local level, to make it difficult to unseat their primacy.

But to say they just aren't all that different, ignoring the effect of consistency over time, is like suggesting the pressure differential above and below an airfoil isn't that different. It is true, but it's not a complete answer either.
