If nobody ever subscribes any more, and they just choose the articles which interest them and pay, the newspaper may decrease the amount of revenue it gets.
> No; the issue with nuclear is cost.

Is it though? It seems countries are quite willing to build new nuclear power plants, but nobody wants them in their backyard.
The problem (which I think you seem to be acknowledging) is that as I've pointed out in the original post, the lack of clarity seems to end up in a mysterious (arbitrary? biased?) view on what is ok to cover.

RBG: ok.

Trump Replacement for RBG: "political".

Trump Tax: ok.

A lot of the Apache projects came from companies. Although some of these were more like one person at the company developed it and the company funded and maintained it.
Yes, though in total the split between myself and my partner was pretty much even, we got one of the "equality bonus" amounts and missed the others. It was hard to understand how it worked, we did not plan with it in mind and when it happened it seemed pretty random. I haven't kept up to date with the rules but I think they just quietly scrapped the "equality bonus" idea. I'm glad they did. While I am certainly happy I had the opportunity to be with my children because of the system, I do not miss all the hours spent trying to plan with all the rules in mind. My dream system would be a lump sum and the right to take unpaid time off work while the children are young...
You seem to have been down voted but I don't think you're totally off base.

I'm the father of 4 kids, currently aged 2 months - 5 years, and I took 1-2 weeks off for each one. I think that one week about what is really needed for fathers in baseline cases, although special cases (premature births, post-partum depression, health problems with the mother or child, etc) definitely need more.

The problem is that you can't really "bond" with a baby as a father (in a two-way sense). They don't realize you exist, and they don't really start to get to know you until some time later, maybe after 6 months.

I think longer leave probably makes sense for the first baby, because that is a big life adjustment and it's easier to handle when you don't have to worry about work. But for baby numbers 2+, I just don't see that longer leave is necessary in baseline cases. So I'm not sure it's right for the state to require that employers offer longer paid leave.

That said, generous parental leave policies are still a nice bonus for parents and can be a competitive edge for companies in hiring. My firm has offered 6 months' paid parental leave.
Funny, that makes it more attractive to me. I liked my coworker's ergodoz but it was such a monster I didn't want it on my desk.
Are you serious? What sort of companies do this? And what do they look for?
Suppose your input to any of these contains quotation marks, or perhaps a mix of quotation marks. Then you have to use more and more exotic forms of quoting and escaping.

In Python 2.7, encoding to Base64 in a pipe used to be a mouthful:

echo "foo" | python2.7 -c 'import sys; print sys.stdin.read().encode("base64")'

Now it's even worse:

echo "foo" | python3 -c 'import base64,sys; print(base64.b64encode(sys.stdin.buffer.read()).decode("ascii"))'

As an aside, the base64 module is a good example of how rough the Python standard library is, and it seems like no one is being a gatekeeper of new changes. Almost no one wants base64.decode, but base64.b64decode. Or maybe base64.standard_b64encode? Or base64.encodebytes? Not to mention the majority of functions in the module are _not_ related to Base64 but other encodings.
>The issue is whether or not the rule-of-law still means anything in the US. Have the executive block things pretty much arbitrarily undermines the rule-of-law. If the US wants to block Chinese companies, then pass laws in congress to do so. Don’t let your executive do an end run around your democratic process.

The courts are doing exactly that, determining whether the executive has the authority to implement this. This is in fact the rule-of-law in action.

This is also the reason why the rule-of-law is lacking in China, the courts rarely if ever finds against the government in constitutional matters like these. Their system was designed for the CCP to retain power.
That's actually a great example of my point. Thanks for making it. I agree, not everybody needs 3 cars. And we also can't guarantee everyone soon be alive forever, or didn't you hear we're mortal? The sooner we can stop anchoring on straw men and unattainable dreams, the sooner we can actually solve problems. It doesn't feel as good as tilting against the windmills, but it's the path forward that's available to us.

It's for me, and that's great.

I don't want to open up Terminal, remember some (Python) code to JSON format some string that I've just copy/pasted and hope that I've remembered it correctly and it works.

Oh! But I don't remember the code! So I have to look it up, probably on StackOverflow b/c I'm lazy (not really, I just want to format the text I've just copied to clipboard not remember the correct lib that python uses for formatting), but how do I do that? I've already copied the text I want to format to clipboard and if I copy the code to format the code that I have in my clipboard to the clipboard it will erase the text that I want to format! xD

So, yeah, little Util GUI Apps like these are useful.

I have this crazy plan to create a harness where the two keyboard halves hang on the sides of your body (think sitting or standing with your arms naturally hanging down - the keyboards will be positioned under your palms).

Anecdotally, my (US) employer started offering paternal leave a few years ago and most new fathers are using it. We allow it to be split, so many will do 2 weeks initially, then in 1-2 week chunks over the next several months.

You have a perception bias which doesn't reflect reality.
>about half the time they would refuse to go where I wanted

There are two types of license for London black cabs - one for the city center and one for the whole of London. The one that can only do the city center have a green sticker.

Also, if the "for hire" light is on, they are not allowed to refuse to take you to anywhere within their boundary. In practice, if there are a bunch of cabs around, it may make sense to get another one, but if it's pissing down with rain and there are no other cabs in sight, get in the cab first THEN tell them where you are going and insist on it.

As for cash: since 2016, every cab must have a working credit card meter to pick up a far.
I guess our mental health during a global pandemic isn't really of any concern to the bottom line.

I honestly wonder what effect one person taking off this time would have on the bottom line. If you are that critical to your company, you could probably negotiate for a higher salary. Otherwise, this is just callousness, which I guess is expected from unchecked capitalism.
> That's the American way, isn't it?

Not at all. Any state today was so many power that doesn't matter what's written in the law.

We need to put limits in the State, otherwise, they'll continue to increase they own power and bypass the law whenever they want.

And I'm not just talking about politicians: civil servants, security forces (police, army and others), regulatory agencies, judiciary and so on.
Very satisfying design. The code for generating the laser cutting files would be cool to see. It looks very well though out, by even engraving numbers, all the correct holes etc.

With all due respect, your post boils down to "we should be glad it isn't as bad as it used to be". That doesn't at all imply that the current state is desirable.

It's more about access and convenience than entitlement. Even on Google/Amazon/iTunes, you simply can't access all content. Depending on where you are globally, it might not even be possible to gain access if you subscribe to every available streaming service. It's not like there's a common infrastructure where all content is published, with streaming services as a wrapper on top. And as Gabe Newell said, "The easiest way to stop piracy is not by putting anti-piracy technology to work. It's by giving those people a service that's better than what they're receiving from the pirates."

The reality is there are a lot of exclusive, regional licensing schemes that preclude the content from being accessible anywhere for a fee. The media business has been and continues to be distributor centric instead of consumer focused, which is costing them potential revenue while they cling to an outdated business model. This business model likes to pretend the bundle is the product, but makes licensing deals on a per-show or per-franchise basis.

The license holder gets to choose whether I'm fed the "one episode a week" bullshit or whether I can watch episodes at my own leisure, whether to limit streaming to a limited time period or a limited subset of a series' seasons, to postpone my local launch date by an arbitrary delay, and so on. The streaming service middlemen get to decide how much of my time to waste by obscuring quality ratings, limiting discoverability, not listing availability dates, not allow viewing of shows because subtitles aren't yet available, and so on.

We have the networking and storage infrastructure to have any content available anywhere at the same time. We have the payment infrastructure to allow target audiences to access your content and pay a variable price based on what they watch. We know how to make rich user interfaces where users can indicate their viewing preference. The only conclusion I'm left with is media companies want to compete on status instead of merit.

I really wish we didn't live in a time of rent-seeking, "engagement"-driven, anti-consumer walled gardens of crap.
You can also use space or enter to activate i made sure you can do everything from the keyboard alone.

Adding an extra keypress was by design, since I have to generate new textures i.e. (https://raw.githubusercontent.com/crsnbrt/keysim/develop/pub...) each time the colorway changes the extra step helps keep cpu usage down.

The Deutsches Technik Museum in Berlin is pretty incredible. They’ve got a reproduction of the entirely mechanical Z1-computer. (The original was destroyed in the war if I’m not mistaken.) If you’re ever in Berlin, be sure to check it out. Take the U1/U2/U3 to Gleisdreieck. It’s within walking distance from there.
Well, for me "sh configure" has a much higher chance of producing a working Makefile than it used to, as one example.

Absolutely this - I’ve tried to explain things clearly in the commentary, not least so I can understand them again when I revisit bits of the code. I’ve got about 15 new deep dives that I'm going to be writing next, now that I've done the website, so that part of the site should get more interesting over time.

This is version 1.0, really. There’s an awful lot more to say about this game - it’s endlessly fascinating.
Since you already know TypeScript, I think it is important to note that this project uses a new TypeScript 4.1 feature called Template Literal Types to do pattern matching in order to parse the SQL string.

I'm glad you asked. :-) For a start, number types. I want i32, i64, u32 etc. JavaScript (and therefore TypeScript) only has "number". Yes we now finally have BigInt but it's not ideal for JIT optimisation.

Object prototypes is a weird part of JS that we really could do without. If you really want that, use class syntax.

The Date object. Need I say more...

Little things like Object.keys() should return a (keyof T)[] rather than a string[] but can't due to JS edge cases.

Want first class tuples/immutable arrays.

Many other new syntaxes that can't be implemented due to the need for JS compatibility.

I'm sure there are others that I can't think of right now...

Facebook has been used for misinformation for a significant longer amount of time. Usually I get annoyed when people say something like "but what about X", but in this case it's a case of one company often being proven to manipulate, distort, etc (Facebook) vs a possibility that another company might do that.
Small FFTs like 2048 only utilize one SM and the way they are given to the GPU may produce some fluctuations. It also depends on the way your code works. Synchronizations are also more impactful in this case. Do you launch a big grid that consists of multiple samples combined in a matrix or you launch each sample separately?

Over the past few years I've developed a WordPress plugin that provides most (all, I think) of what you want [1]. I also a while back did a comparison of some other softwares' pros and cons [2].

At my work we've used my system for about 2 years now and there is much more engagement with the system than the one it replaced (a custom Lotus Notes application... go figure). People like that they can open the logbook from the lab, write some stuff, save it and edit/publish it later. We also heavily encourage to document anything and everything and use the categories and tags as much as possible to make searching easier.

Would you say the names West Nile, Zika, and MERS are also signs of propaganda?
I do. If you are a few years behind the latest GPU/wifi then there's a good chance your hardware will just work.

It takes longer than usual to get a comfortable setup, but once you do it once it's very easy to keep the same for years/decades unchanged.

There's not much proprietary software, and the way to do things is usually the bare bones one. If you want to run linux virtualized, you can do it using QEMU+NVMM, but there won't be a fancy GUI like VirtualBox. You might need to change some boot parameters too.

People often run it on arm64, which has unusually good hardware support (it might have support for things faster than linux mainline kernel).

I dunno. For me, a variety is more important than strictly using light or dark. I tend to switch things up every so often similar to how I might rearrange furniture or bring a new meal into weeknight rotation. Sometimes I just need a change of scenery (in a loose sense of the word).
This is my exact thought. I love it, but I'm about to retire my second one. It's almost worth just paying the price for a new one every couple of years though. I have two of the older Microsoft Natural keyboards from decades ago that I periodically switch to and they will probably last another 20 years.

Can't speak for the GP but my single biggest complaint about TS is how it's basically a massive set of assumptions layered on top of JS. If the JS types at runtime don't align with your assumptions in TS, the whole house of cards can come crashing down.
Pedantic note: footnote 1 (supporting the statement that there's nontrivial mathematics behind circle packings) links to two Wikipedia pages, for "Circle packing" and "Circle packing theorem"; the first of those is actually completely irrelevant because it's about how densely you can pack fixed-size circles into a given space, a topic that turns out to have basically nothing to do with the sort of circle packing that's actually relevant to the article.

(Thurston should really have used a different term. "Circle tiling", perhaps.)
I think it depends on the kids. I have 4 kids under 6, and I've never had a problem shopping with any combination of them, especially as infants (although the most recent one, at 2 months old, has never been out due to COVID).

But I could definitely see it being a big problem if you happen to have kids who tend to cry in & around a shopping cart. I think it's just the luck of the draw.

I'm also not a single parent, although we always do the shopping trips solo.
same mechanism, just deal with more edge cases. e.g. whitespace isn't really trimmed correctly at the moment, it doesn't handle escaping quotes in strings and so on. I did think about trying to match postgres's grammar but it's a lot of work and probably implementing a PEG first would make it easier.

This is interesting stuff. Could you comment about optimization? LLVM has put a lot of effort into optimizing code at various levels, including the LTO stuff. Will Zig match all this by itself, or will a 'Release mode' still use LLVM to produce a final version?

Thanks. I know what you mean.

In the case of downloading vs package manager, the problem is that there is lot of software that I use that is not on the repositories. If everything was there, I have no problem on using 100% package manager.

Regarding the apps, there off course the issue is that some apps have no equivalent in the Linux world.

There is no MS Office, LibreoOffice is good but not so good, and same for Adobe Suite. Total Commander I can more or less replace with Double Commander, or TC under Wine.

Afaik, there is a unrar.dll equivalent in Linux, but not a proper WinRAR.

Thanks for your opinion!
The curve is indeed steep! I had to force myself to only use the ortho keeb for a week or two (resist using the laptop keyboard). Since then I'm sailing ortho only, so much that I sold some very expensive staggered keyboard, because I know I will not use staggered anymore if I can.

The benefits were obvious immediately, even while not touch-typing yet. Every key is assigned to a finger without ambiguity. Except for some shortcut combinations, but even then it feels clear.

You use your pinky more which I think is good (I also play the guitar).

The number one advantage is that my hand is never lost anymore. With staggered, every other word or command makes my hand "float" somewhere away from the "home row/keys", with a subsequent mistype or look-down. This does not happen anymore.
If I'm reading it right, the restriction is that 3rd parties can't buy branded Amazon keywords like "Alexa". I imagine that might come back to bite them if that policy doesn't apply to other brands. They also have some brands that are problematic, because the brands have really generic names like "Ring".

And this just sounds really unwise: "Roku Inc., which makes devices that stream content to TVs, can’t even buy such Amazon ads tied to its own products"

> Also TikTok hasn't violated US laws, then where is the case for banning them? Banning something that is perfectly legal seems absurd to do in our legal system.

Cuban cigars haven't broken any laws. Iranian ceramics haven't broken any laws.

The power to sanction / embargo is a very well established power of the government, and it doesn't require a trial. China has long been in violation of the Trafficking in Persons report[1] and, more recently, the Uyghur Human Rights Policy Act[2]. Violation of the TIP report especially gives a very strong precedent for trade sanctions.

TikTok has been described as a national security threat multiple times by multiple political leaders. You may disagree with that designation, but the resulting ban itself is strongly supported by law and precedent.
