I'm wary of such articles praising this system. My opinion: Nobody can truly benefit from a system that promotes mass surveillance. It just turns people into sheep.
Why does it concern you though? Do you think the same way about the electricity or water that are supplied to your home and whether you can live without them? It would be possible to live without them, it would just take a lot of effort and inconvenience. What's different about the Internet?
I think this is outdated to a degree. Pharmacists like that would be needed in the pharma industry. The times when they mixed ingredients themselves on demand are probably gone.

> Sure: standards for xml schema and xpath are pretty nice but there are json equivalents which don't have to deal with elements and attributes.

Not quite there yet. Jsonpath is still not standardized (although a colleague of mine is working on it) and the many implementations out there disagree with each other.

(That said, I do agree with the general sentiment against XML)
Sure; let's take the example of a code file, where semantic validity could make the difference between a correct program and one that doesn't compile.

Validity checks could include a syntax parser as a first-pass, followed by unit test as a second pass. If any of the verification steps fail, then the application can display that there is a problem with the file (and hopefully some context).

The authorities in that example are the software that checks the program; it can run locally for each participant in the session, or there could be a central instance that runs them, depending on the preferred architecture for the system.

None of the above necessarily requires discarding edits; but in some cases participants might choose to undo edits that caused problems, in order to get back to a valid document state.
Maybe it doesn't need to survive per-se, but the ejecta could have enough life building blocks (aminoacids, etc) to achieve abiogenesis easily again.
What field did you end up in?
If you would like to quit internet and also retain your connection with the society, then I guess you would have to define society and your connection with it.

Living in a modern day City, it would be difficult I guess, because so many daily life services/chores are now partially or wholly dependent on Internet. And if most of your family and close friends are also living in a city, then it becomes more difficult.

But let's say that you move to a rural area, then it should become achievable. Parts of world, still untouched by hyper advanced internet dependent technology, will still retain the old ways of doing most things.

You may have to convince your close ones to move with you and it becomes more difficult if you are married and have children.

Starting on this path, early in life should help.

It sounds like they dislike the fact that indentation matters. I see a lot of people who get mad about that in Python and YAML has the added annoyance of not allowing tabs.

Personally, I love both Python and YAML for this exact reason (among others). Explaining a hierarchical system using indentation to an average person isn't too difficult, but even very smart non-tech people will get confused by explicitly opened and closed blocks (if-endif or { }). Without proper indentation, the code is unreadable anyway, so why not actually take advantage of that and get rid of the bracket soup that means nothing to you anyways.

The rich bought tax chicanery with some billions to rake in trillions. Besides that, they're killing us all and the planet by preventing net negative carbon emissions, capture, and sequestration. No luxury prepper bunker can save them, us, or anything from this man-made catastrophe apart from spending tens of trillions on CCS. Money won't matter if you're and everything is dead.
I'd argue there is a case for some single use plastics. I notice for instance that some drugs are prescribed in one-use syringes that are all plastic with a metal needle and possibly rubber stopper.

I imagine there are other use cases as well, not just medical. Being medical waste, it is unlike to be dumped in the sea.

We seem to be conflating an attack on plastic being poorly disposed of (or recycled) and the use of plastic.

While I agree with much of the OP, I think it’s all over the place.

Asynchronous Communication is they key to me and is described by some remote-first companies [0].

The medium of communication is up for debate.

Co-edited design docs for example. In its simplest form I can write a draft of an ADR as markdown and add it to source control. Ensure people know it’s there and have them edit and comment in their own time. No extra tools needed.

What you do need is a team of people able and willing to spend time working like this. Some teams consist of people that are just drifting along and you’re forced to stick everybody in a room and discuss that one issue with no distractions.

> I'm generally very sympathetic to anti-trust measures, but this strikes me as a situation where DuckDuckGo needs to stand on its own two feet. If your position is that privacy is more valuable to consumers, then you should compete in the auction.

If you're very sympathetic to anti-trust measures, then this shouldn't be decided in an auction. Obviously the most profitable companies will win the auction. And those are the same companies that you should be taking measures against (not because they're profitable in itself, but because by being profitable they can kill competitors).

So saying: "search engines should compete on a lawless free market" vs "search engines have to compete on an auction for users" is more or less the same thing. Anti-trust measures try to make the outcome slightly less sensitive to profitability.
They are all great but often seriously uncomfortable reading.

It is called real world, there are plenty of countries with zero Apple devices, and if they happen to be available, only a couple of government level people have them, completely irrelevant for the companies selling their goods to the local population, the market that they actually get their money from.

So if you have a formula how the e.g. train service gets money from a selling tickets app for iOS in a country with zero iPhone presence, you have our attention.

80k is between 97 and 98.

My high income friends tend to get their income from dividends and avoid NI completely. Only working schmucks pay NI.

I live in Bath, an old-ish European city. It's dense, with narrow roads, many awkward junctions, and lots of onstreet parking that makes many roads one lane in places. I've often thought that FSD was basically impossible here without cracking general AI and some theory of mind just to tackle relatively simple cases of trying to negotiate with oncoming traffic in pinch points. But I'd always assumed that places like phoenix would be so much easier. It's interesting to see that even places like that are throwing up enough problematic situations that Waymo still don't feel confident launching.
The same would be true of any thermoelectric power station. They all need cooling of the condenser.

I think what is meant here are "Pharmazeutisch-technische Assistenten" (PTA), which are not pharmacists but more like the pharmacists' assistents. There also is a full pharmacy course at German universities, and some regulated exams you need to pass to become a pharmacist. As far as I understand to actually run a pharmacy you need to be a pharmacist with a full degree.

Thanks for taking a look, and I guess thanks for your concern. You know though, I do object to your raising the mental health issue here. What you are really doing is failing to engage with an argument, and attempting to smear me. That's your call I guess.

However, as you are advising me, I'll share my advice with you from the other side of the 'chasm'. Be aware that there is a possibility that your world can be turned upside down, and that things you were told were true turn out to be lies and manipulations. I think that the 'great reset' that has started will result in a very different world in the next decade.

My thesis is that the vast majority of people have been educated to believe a certain set of beliefs. In the past this was religion, nowadays it is science. The problem is that most people do not confirm anything for themselves! Nothing. They accept the opinion of experts. So they do not validate anything; they have beliefs masquerading as knowledge. And in fact, science is just a new religion. (I'm not talking about the scientific method, which is valid - just what is presented as science.)

Impossible you will say, people don't believe in science they know! But the trick is easily done. If you want to check another 3min video out you will see what I mean:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nFLs6nufCj4

To put it bluntly, most people have been so mind controlled, from cradle to grave, for generations, they cannot even conceive that what their situation is.

I'll leave you with this Krishnamurti quote, regards to your mental health:
"It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly sick society."

All the best.
Yeah, this is like manual vs. an electric can opener. Sometimes it's nice to have a posix script you can just drop in. I use a 200+ line bash script to set up/manage/and use my python environments and projects instead of python.

Otherwise, the trick is to drastically limit your device usage. Keep your phone off by default, and only turn it on for 15 minutes a day. Use Self-Control [1] to block distracting sites. Etc.

Now that I think about it, it should be obvious the size of dependency cannot be fixed, otherwise pi would be periodic! (there are finitely many fixed size 'parents', so it must recur)

I should also note that the straightforward interpretation in this case is that of a temporal neighborhood for a Cellular Automaton! That is, dependence of several states back in time, and 0 space dimensions. You can also think of a 1D CA if you introduce a special state that signals the "expansion" of the digits of pi (which digit we're currently expanding)

This also enlightens me in the bizarre concept of multiple time dimensions. If you start with a 2D field, and use the same technique of keeping track of the current active expanding cells (i.e. "current time"), starting from a single active cell (time 0) in a top-left corner, then you can expand cells across a diagonal, and they depend on previous states in two different directions.
Yeah, the classic 3D game Elite (1984) uses the small angle approximation throughout, no look-up tables at all (except for drawing the planets).

>"BOOTSTRAP EXPERIMENT

In this experiment I aim to develop from the ground up a working compiler, assembler, linker and library, for a C-like language. We start with a minimal program capable of generating itself from its source and gradually develop higher level tools and abstractions, as follows.

This programs produced in this project are 32-bit ELF executables which run on a Linux kernel running on an Intel x86 processor. They run fine on modern 64-bit systems."
Of course it can't. It's designed to be human-readable which control characters aren't. What eg. does BEL (ascii 07 IIRC) look like do you reckon.
Does that make them bad employers? I would expect it to be quite logical that employers want to hire the best workers, where the 'best' is those who can process the most items.

I used to work in a brush factory when I was a teenager (during school holidays). It was basically 8 hours of grabbing a metal clip and s row of brush hairs, slide the latter into the former, put the assembly under a press, put the result in a box. I made the day interesting by getting my movements down exactly so I would get into a flow and even almost dissociate (it was better than it sounds, I was not a sweatshop child laborer). The regular workers would regularly remind me not to 'overwork' myself, and after a few weeks, those 'reminders' turned into near bullying (probably because I was upping the level for what was 'normal' output levels).

Was I a bad employee or bad colleague in that case? I don't think so, but ostensibly some others thought differently.

Someone else can probably answer if Robinhood allows you to sell options short, but if you do, you can lose more than your initial purchase/deposit if the price moves faster than Robinhood can forcibly liquidate your position.

You would almost expect this to happen occasionally, if you’re not super careful, due to the massive volatility of options.

Being short out-of-the-money call options will expose you to a ridiculous downside if the stock makes an unexpected upwards move. Easily 10x-100x your deposit.
>usage patterns for a shared email channel are far more individual than for a branded async medium like slack

on the other hand this can also be argued as a strength of email (which is what I would do) because different people need different usage patterns to work optimally, by forcing people into a one size fits all solution you will ensure some people will work less well than others.

Besides understanding a newspaper, which arguably schools do teach since they teach you to read and do analysis on text in English classes, did high school education ever cover the rest of this?
One small annoyance is that bangs can be set with the exclamation mark _after_ the term, however, only if that bang (with exclamation at the end) was explicitly submitted.

For many of my regulars, both exist (!w & w!, !gmaps & gmaps!) but as this isn't standard, it can lead to holes. For example, !hackernews works but hackernews! not.

It would be great if all bangs could have both variants as standard rather than allowing submission of one but not the other.
This is a distracting argument and it is the same argument the industry used to try and create outrage agains the EU single-plastic ban.

N.B. medical supplies were exempt even in the earlier draft proposals. This was never a discussion point.

Single-use plastics should be banned where they are used purely for economic reasons. For cases where industry chooses to use plastic, then they should also take up the environmental cost of disposal/recycling.

The only reason plastic is economic in the short term is because industry is not paying for all the externalized costs associated with disposal, recycling, environmental and health degradation, etc.
