Nazi ideology was to a large extent a vulgarisation of the work of the intellectuals associated with the Konservative Revolution . The notion of the Third Reich, also popularized by Spengler, was elaborated in Das Dritte Reich (1923) by Arthur Moeller van den Bruck. He used the term to propagate a conservative "socialist" ideal that could unite all classes under an authoritarian militarist regime. Together with Spengler's Preussentum and Sozialismus , it formed one of the building blocks of the doctrine of National Socialism .

As Von Klemperer argues in his classical history of ideas of the Conservative Revolution, the Nazi movement was ideologically fueled by these conservative intelligentsia:

>It mattered in these days that both movements were counter-
revolutionary agents in the Republic and appealed to the
worst instincts of the population. The vicious charges of
the neo-conservatives against the political parties, the
Weimar "system," or the Western powers, their mere use
(with whatever mental reservations) of the new glittering
vocabulary words like "myth," "totality," and "race"
were but grist for the Nazi propaganda mill. That is why
the initial alienation of the neo-conservative forces from
the Republic was so fatal an event. It paved the way for
the Rightist intelligentsia to serve the aims of the Nazi
revolution. [1]

Google Workspace is definitely a notch better than G Suite. Collaborating is just made easier across document editing with Google Meet in-picture.

Now, one key field of "Workspace" in which Google is still nearly absent is PROJECT MANAGEMENT. Google Workspace targets millions of various companies of different sizes so it is tough to make a one-size fits all solution. I get it. But right now, Calendar is awesome, Docs are awesome, Gmail is amazing, but Tasks is subpar and too thin of a layer.

It is annoying to have your team do most stuff on G Suite (Workspace) but then orchestrate that somewhere else (Asana, ClickUp, etc). It's just something that has been missing for a long time and I hope they are filling that void somehow soon.

Handing national interstate matters over to states has proven to always be a terrible idea as it leads to a selective representation as they rule over far more than can vote for them. Doing so for the internet is doubly terrible given that location of all parties isn't reasonably known ahead of time nor usually relevant.

Mostly because of user experience. F# as .NET language has entire ecosystem of high quality libraries to pick from, good IDE support (not as good as Java/C#, but definitely better than Haskell) and smaller learning curve. It's also way more robust than Rust - meaning that you can make a working project with decent performance much quicker. I say that as both F# and Rust developer. IMO the language that covers similar area and may be more tempting to learn is Scala. But if you already know how to utilize .NET platform, then reusing that knowledge in F# is just easier.

Non poetic but hopefully bit more understandable explanation of what it tries to say:

After crossing the event horizon the radial direction becomes like time. And what used to be time becomes like space.

What this means that you will inevitably travel to the center, just in the same way as you travel into the future in normal life. Inside the event horizon the center is not at any place that you can see, instead it is in your future.

Gotta say though that I intuitivly think of the dict union operator x | y as {* * x, * * y}. Which is how I would have joined two dictionaries before, when I wanted to produce a complete copy of one, i.e. not use dict.update.
That is a misunderstanding and a simplistic depiction of the inner structure inside the event horizon sphere.
True is we have no observations of the internals but time ending is in contradiction to the cones of particles ejected from the "hole", observed by astronomers.
The thing that is ignored here is that while molecules move fast ... they go nowhere. It's a random walk. It takes 6 hours for your small protein molecule to move 1cm ... at 250kph.

So while these molecules offering themselves up "automatically" works, it only works at very short ranges and it's a stochastic range. At 1nm they meet 100k times per second. At 1cm once per 6 hours. At 3cm once per month.

So there is in fact a lot of bookkeeping, keeping things tethered where they need to be and dragging things around to be done inside the cell where everything magically happens. People in this thread aren't correct that it's not necessary to do that. You don't need to get positions exactly right, as in you don't have to get the amino acids in every ribosome, but you DO have to get them "more or less" where they need to be. If for example if the amino acid concentrations near ribosomes ever get low, that's the end of you in about 2h (there's a fungus that causes that).
Isn't that the point we are making here? This would eventually lead to a handful of companies dominating so many major markets.

Jabra, Spotify are not competing with Apple on just merit. Apple has the advantage of pushing Airpods, Apple Music on their Macbook/iPhone customers because they have the cash and branding space on a red carpet for them.

How can it be permissible to buy software and not be allowed to use it on whatever you own? You own both. It's like DRM without the actual protection.
The technical term is "local loop unbundling".

There's multiple levels of sharing, but just having regulation to force telecoms to lease the most local part (the cable that goes from your house to a shared switch) goes a long way. The US isn't well-regulated on that front.

In France, not only is the local loop (and much of the network) shared, when Orange came to install fiber in our apartment they had to install four fiber ports + wires in the same cable, so we can switch to any the other major 3 operators painlessly (or, we could if any of them had fiber in our building).

The infrastructure-sharing regulations, as well as aggressive anti-trust action, is why France has one of the best internet coverages in the world at one of the lowest prices, 15 years after the public telecom operator was privatized.
Yea, the Tesla marketing team has gone a bit overboard and some people are taking their spiel as gospel.

Even more interesting IMO is that the same argument holds not just for royalty but also for religious figures whose descendants have special divinely-sanctioned status in various different religions. For example, it's quite likely that we're all descendants of the original high priest Aaron, whose descendants and no-one else are allowed by God to perform certain actions (caveat: the ancient texts are ambiguous about whether "descendant" means "descendant along both maternal and paternal lines" or whether it's more restrictive, and in certain circles this could be a sensitive question). Similar thing for religious prophecies about peoples' descendants (e.g. that the Messiah is a descendant of Judah---it's probable that we are all descendants of Judah by now).

Worth noting that the "BH so massive even light can't escape" meme, a staple of popular science, wouldn't make sense since photons don't have mass. What's happening is that space is skewed (according to Schwarzschild if I got it right). It can be better groked with a modern depiction of a BH such as in eg "Interstellar" where the far end of the accretion disk is observed as a second disk.
I thought we already knew there was a supermassive black hole in the center of the Milky Way for a while now? What specifically did Genzel and Ghez do to expand on that knowledge? I'm curious to know.
The article is saying that every person bears some relation to each other, even among distant groups. No further back than 3500 years ago existed a person who was a common ancestor to every currently living human being.

> happiness actually derives from having cats

Not if you're part of the massive destruction of wildlife wrought by these biodiversity annihilators masquerading as cute pets.

'As an invasive species[1] and superpredator,[2] they do considerable ecological damage.[2] In Australia, hunting by cats helped to drive at least 20 native mammals to extinction,[3] and continues to threaten at least 124 more.[3] Their introduction has caused the extinction of at least 33 endemic species on islands throughout the world.[2] Feral and domestic cats kill billions of birds in the United States every year, where songbird populations continue to decline.[4]'

But if there are more Asians in China than Korea, which obviously there are, they should be the more accurate representation of Asian genetics. And this is not even taking into account Asians in the US and elsewhere outside of Asia. You say it shouldn't matter yet you also admit your argument is weakened by using the bigger data set.

Claims about inherent racial strengths and weaknesses always break down once the actual genetic diversity within the population of a "race" is taken into account, because what we consider to be "race" is broad and mostly defined by cultural and political factors, rather than genetics.

By definition, professional athletes are genetic exceptions. So it would make no sense to compare the average member of any population to the elites in the NBA and make claims about race in general. Particularly with something as trivial and variant as height.
Ha... I had asked a question in Quora several years back on exactly the same topic (deleted account, don't have link).

I don't understand why programming languages need to be released like other "software". I see it a lot for modern languages like Rust.

To me, a programming language should have a major revision only once in 5-10 years. All other changes should be performance improvements or implementation changes which do not affect the end user which in this case is the programmer.
In Poland we had quite large population of wild animals. It's estimated that we have population of over 2.000 wolves, they need large territories so it's natural to migrate outside the borders. Hopefully they will be protected everywhere at same level. I never heard here about threat to humans (we as a nation spend a lot time in forests for mushroom and berries picking, recreation, etc) beside rumours and fake news ignited by hunters - they want to end strict wolf protection to be able to hunt for them.

Wolves were always here in Poland, and now they are already on most polish territory, even near big cities. They are in forests just outside Warsaw, my friend is now hearing wolf pack 30km outside from Gdansk in northern Poland. Of course that farmers reports loses and this is some cost for the state, that is paying out for those.

But this is our european heritage and we need to make everything to preserve it. Nothing to be afraid of.

While you make good points about the potential defense-in-depth aspects of Xen, the reality is that features like stub domains and dom0less have been very experimental and aren't enabled by default or used in production. They were first introduced about 10 years ago and are still tricky to set up. Porting and testing device drivers in stubdomains is also hard (from my own experience).

Svirt for KVM on the other hand is enabled by default on Red Hat like distros, providing a reasonable MAC policy and locked down device model without any requirement for the admin to do something. I like Xen's design but I can't help but feel that safer defaults trump theoretical configurations.
The creator of x decided to spell it as x. One could call it entitlement for the creator to try to demand that everyone follow some unintuitive pronunciation rule (or, in some cases, a rule that made sense only in another language).
