I should also write a dissenting opinion on this point—for each client, the upgrade to HTTP/2 is free, as it’s negotiated via ALPN during the TLS handshake; whereas the HTTP/3 upgrade mechanism isn’t particularly solid yet, requiring an Alt-Svc header on a response from the server, meaning you’ve already had to connect over HTTP/1 or HTTP/2 before you learn you can connect over HTTP/3. There’s also work going on to add a new type of DNS record to indicate that the server is h3-capable, which would allow you to connect over HTTP/3 immediately, but that’s opt-in, and loads of sites that support HTTP/3 will never add that record. So until browsers switch to defaulting to trying HTTP/3, HTTP-over-TCP will continue to be used regularly even when HTTP-over-QUIC is supported, and that means plenty of HTTP/2 will be used until that time. This could keep HTTP/2 alive for a lot longer than the decade I posited. I don’t know how it’ll play out, but I think it will depend on how much browsers decide they want to push HTTP/3; if they push it hard and try it more optimistically, HTTP/2 will die more quickly.
Paul was a Jew. He was only ever relating in the NT what the Old testament was teaching. So it's very easy to understand what he was saying if you reference what he was quoting.

On sexuality being innate/not a choice. The Bible does not prohibit any innate characteristics, it prohibits actions. Actions are always choices. Homosexual actions are what the bible prohibits, the Old Testament first and then repeated (and quoted) in the New Testament.

Marriage is not involved in these prohibitions.

Ask HN: How a small business buy a collaborative email system?
I own a small business that I am trying to expand, part of the problem right now is that our e-mail system is thunderbird + enterprise g-mail and that combination is proving to be a disaster, Thunderbird is just crap, can't handle our usage at all.

My wife worked at IBM and she described Lotus Notes to me, and it would be a solution, but the company that sells it is outright ignoring me, they never reply to any contact. I tried other companies with similar results.

So, as a small business, how on earth I buy e-mail software?

You need magic to describe shit that doesn't exist. Otherwise, then nothing makes sense? How do you have FTL when any possible explanation of how it works might as well be words chosen at random from a textbook because none of it will be plausible.

Literally doesn't make any sense. All your complaints are second order issues. Good Sci-Fi places rules around its magic and is consistent about it. What "good" sci fi that relies on tech that doesn't exist is there that DOESN'T have its magic bounded by in universe rules.

Sci-Fi breaks down when you start to ignore or make up new rules around the magic, especially if its just "stupid"

everyone is entitled to define their own categories, but to me a key element of sci-fi is that the science and its implications drive the story as much as the characters. if the science merely enables the story, it's space fantasy.

Dunbar (famous for the "150 friends" rule, based on neocortex size) claims that religion is a scaling technology which allows groups to expand above the 1500 person size, which is as large as a group can get and still have most members able to recognize members by face.

Above 1500 people, a group needs a non-personal method to tag who is trustworthy and who might be plotting you harm.

Religion fills the gap nicely, gives you a reason to trust the other person. Works well, until it doesn't.

Long way of providing scientifically derived support to your statement on the "purpose" of religion.
You're right--I must've misremembered the shift as an outright abandonment and/or conflated abandonment by many non-Catholic theologians with the Catholic church. Frankly, the details are rather baroque.
> Star Trek goes into intricate detail trying to explain its warp drives and comes off looking far less grounded than the vast majority of sci-fi properties

As much as I love Star Trek, it isn't really explaining all that much (it would be, if the writers could be arsed to read the technical manuals created for the series, but even the manuals themselves say they aren't mandatory reading, so here we are). It's DDoSing your disbelief with technobabble to allow for whatever plot the episode's writer had in mind.

(Though it's not impossible to make something relatively consistent out of Star Trek's universe; /r/DaystromInstitute is a subreddit essentially dedicated to doing just that. It's an exercise in function interpolation, but having lots of data points does constrain possibilities.)

> Most of the time, the story isn't about the technology (in the same way that Westerns aren't always about animal husbandry and gun manufacturing), and it's sufficient that you push some buttons, pull a lever and spaceship go brrr.

There's very little point in choosing sci-fi as your setting if your story is setting-independent. The westerns whose story is entirely interchangeable with action movies set in ancient times or present days don't tend to be very interesting movies (YMMV). Or at least I tend to avoid those, because I find them boring. With sci-fi, if the story is all about setting-independent human drama, I can have that with any other genre. I like my sci-fi when it extrapolates and elaborates on science and technology, and its impact on societies.

That's a great question. Whois does not provide any identifying information (other than Google as the registrar) for the domain, and the site appears to be hosted on the Google cloud.

It would be interesting to have such information. Perhaps if someone involved is here on HN, they could share that information?

Slightly off topic, but I wish some company with capability in volume production of battery packs would develop a modular system of safe, reliable, light and economical battery packs. There's so much potential for various products that would benefit from having multi-kWh storage capacity available, and this potential will only increase as the cost per kWh drops further.

As a case in point, this Slovenian company makes sustainer systems for sailplanes, which is awesome, but their system is limited to two battery packs. I imagine that pack design, form factor and availability is a big limiting factor in projects such as these.

> Son & Simon 2012:
Furthermore, even after acknowledging the benefits of spacing, changing teaching practices proved to be enormously difficult. Delaney et al (2010) wrote: “Anecdotally, high school teachers and college professors seem to teach in a linear fashion without repetition and give three or four noncumulative exams.” (p. 130). Focusing on the math domain, where one might expect a very easy-to-review-and-to-space strategy, Rohrer (2009) points out that mathematics textbooks usually present topics in a non-spaced, non-mixed fashion. Even much earlier, Vash (1989) had written: “Education policy setters know perfectly well that [spaced practice] works better [than massed practice]. They don’t care. It isn’t tidy. It doesn’t let teachers teach a unit and dust off their hands quickly with a nice sense of ‘Well, that’s done.’” (p. 1547).

> Slaves actually called slaves where relatively uncommon in history.

I really don’t think this is true. Human property varied in how common it was but the institution existed in every agricultural society I’m aware of up until at least three 1600s when serfdom died out in England. That’s probably the first society in which humans were not held as property. Western Europe was also likely the first agricultural society not to have chattel slavery but I’m less confident. Certainly slavery was practiced in the Moslem world into the 1900s and well attested all over Asia and in most of Africa and the Americas.

I entered this at the end:

Emacs is a good text editor and I run it for every text file I read or write. As a text editor however, emacs can never handle things like project-management, software development and testing in the same way as an IDE. Yet, it has all the features of an IDE available in some melpa repository. Unfortunately, one is always forced to configure the editor and tweak it here and there to get maybe 80% of what would be possible. And then your settings break your workflow in *that other project* or for a simple plain file. Emacs should finally acknowledge that projects are a thing and support them out-of-the-box.

I would wish for an emacs daemon that considers itself responsible for a single project and manages the language server, version control, compiler and all the other project settings. Whenever I open a file in the scope of that project, the daemon should then configure my emacs instance accordingly to work well in the context of that project.

Instead, I got a wonderfully done perspective on it. Has done criticism, but all constructive. And lots of hope for seeing the results.

I share his general ideas on this. I, also, don't really care for forcing standardisation. Nor do the defaults worry me. I'm convinced most of the "Emacs is hard" crowd is just send fulfilling propaganda. So many think it is harder than alternatives because that is just what you say.

This has been said for the history of the ACLU. And there are difficult balances there: do you defend the Nazi March? What if that March includes armed marchers aiming guns at others? Is aiming a gun speech? Or speech the ACLU has interest in defending? Does it maximize the freedom for marchers, counter marchers, or citizens?

The ACLU had to come to terms with consequences, and harder answers. After defending and enabling a march where people died, the ACLU had to answer whether it was responsible...and it was.

So the organization is a bit different, but I am not so sure that the ACLU could have continued. It had avoided really hard problems, and then had to come to terms with it.

I prefer it this way: it is messy and tricky and also much less likely to be a disaster.

I'm thinking I should clarify some things here.

They did visually confirm inflamed external hemorrhoids a few years ago. I think they also took a stool sample and didn't find any blood in the stool itself, I believe (can't remember what else they tested in the stool), and when it happens it's usually after some significant walking (i.e. a long walk with the dogs), and it's bright red and not mixed in with the stool, so I've been inclined to agree with them.

I had blood almost 20 years ago back in college too, and it took forever for the situation to calm down because I had to walk so much to get from class to class every day (like a 15 minute walk between every class), so I was constantly irritating it. Back then I never got it checked out because I was too embarrassed, just tried to hide it as best as I could.

And when it was really bad a few years ago it was when we were living in a townhome with a dog and I had to go walk him for 15-20 minutes 4 times a day every day, so it was a similar issue to back in college. It's been pretty rare since then (I've only had it happen twice the past two years, and the most recent time it was after we returned from a 3 hour hike).

So I'm pretty sure it's more just the hemorrhoids. I do still want to get it checked, but Covid is more of a concern since I have some risk factors that could lead to a poor outcome. And I'm not even saying wait until Covid "goes away" or anything, just until next summer when it's likely to go down to a somewhat manageable level again (<5% positivity rate), at least in my state. Currently we're about double that.

EDIT: Also another commenter made me aware that you can order and get at-home Fecal Immunochemical Tests (which I'm pretty sure was what I got at the doctors several years ago) to help detect blood within the stool, so I went ahead and ordered one. If that comes back positive, I'll schedule a colonoscopy right away.

Er, actually after consulting with my doctor, since apparently insurance companies aren't required to cover it before the age of 50 and they can cost up to $4000. Maybe with a doctor recommendation insurance will cover it.
Yes, perhaps raising the taxes wouldn't stop more people, but lowering the taxes may encourage more people. One could imagine that having no taxes may make it easier for teenagers to start smoking, for instance.

Of course, institutions are biased and partisan. The problem is that some random YouTube channel, Facebook page or a lone idiot screaming on social media is not going to be less biased and partisan.

Trust is not an all-or-nothing proposition. I know that institutions and established media have systematic blind spots and an agenda, and I think everyone with some critical thinking skills should know that, too. But that doesn't mean that there is no value to news, it means that maybe you should read from multiple sources, try to correct for known biases, ask critical questions etc.

Amplifying vox populi isn't the solution here.

(Also, empirically, while trust in media and institutions has eroded, I don't believe that "most" people don't trust institutions. Maybe that's the case in the US, but certainly not everywhere.)
My thoughts exactly. It comes across as an organization creating technical debt to justify its own existence.
Vokenization Improving Language Understanding [video]
It's a super cool paper that invents "vokenization" to generate a large amount of visually-grounded language datasets and trains visually-grounded models on those.

Most language models are trained on pure text data. Although it achieves significant success in recent years, this is not how humans acquire a language. It raises an interesting question "Can language models achieve a high level of language understanding by reading the text input alone?" The answer is probably "no".

To push the boundary of language models, adding other learning signals in the learning process is the key to success. And the first thing that comes to my mind is vision (visual cue). However, the existing visually-grounded datasets are a level of magnitude smaller than pure text ones. This paper purposes "vokenization" method to overcome this problem, and uses the new data that generate to train visually-supervised language models.

More importantly, visually-grounded models show significant improvements over text-grounded only models.
