The idea is that it's a message board that starts with a general topic, and allows you to drill down lower into more defined topics for discussion.

The interesting part for me, is that I can start with a very vague topic, like entertainment and view all discussions going on about it. Then, if I choose to, I can go into a single topic, like a specific movie and discuss and view only topics about that particular film.

I am just one guy, making this site in my spare time. I don't even feel that comfortable posting on this site, as most of the projects here and their authors are much more experienced.

I love message boards. I've always been on them, and love sharing ideas and opinions, and spreading knowledge and information.

I wanted to create a place where people could find and talk about anything, so I had the idea of Cliq. I wanted it so much, I taught myself programming and began to make Cliq a reality. A few years later, I have what I consider to be a functional site in BETA! Of course, there is tons more to do, but I would love to start getting actual users opinions on the site and turning Cliq into a cool place to hangout and express opinions, respectfully and intelligently!

Because this is a site in progress, I am open to any ideas and suggestions that people might have! Think of a good place to put them, and make your own Cliq! Remember, the sites designed to be dynamic and user controlled!

Facebook login won't work - but the regular login should still work for testing.

He brought out 3 people and had them tell their stories.

He does not talk of numbers, of percentages.

He does not talk about how it could be PTSD or physical.[1]

He does not talk about long haulers who test negative for Covid, sometimes multiple times [2] or about how it could be anxiety at play.

Long haul covid is a thing. A very very rare thing. By parading these people onto the stage in the name of "awareness" he has done nothing but project fear into the world. What does it gain?

I ask you what does one do with the information from the press conference?

What do we do with the information now that we're aware?

There is nothing we can do but we will certainly be more afraid now.

Self promotion, under the guise of safety and awareness, that results in promoting fear in the general population is the main driver of this continuing mass insanity.

How can we tell that 2≠1?
Ok, I'm actually only 90% wrong! It turns out that there is in fact some information about the BH-NS distinction in the gravitational signal itself, but it is very weak and hasn't been detected yet. It is expected to be detected in the future though.

> Why should cars be entitled to the road whenever they damn well please?

I don't think this accurately describes any place I've lived. a driver isn't entitled to do whatever they want on a road. they have to stop for stop signs, signals, etc. that mediate intersecting rights-of-way. they are obligated to yield to pedestrians in a crosswalk, and even if the pedestrian is completely in the wrong, they are obligated to avoid hitting them if possible. what exactly do you want to change here?
Regardless how expensive it get, it won't burn tons of fossil fuels.

Government should just set the conditions for new power and heating infrastructure. No fossil fuels. Zero carbon. A minimum and peak capacity based on current and projected demands. Private companies can bid, but they can't change the conditions.

If a private company can more cheaply and faster build massive amount of battery and use exclusively wind farm to charge them, and have enough capacity to carry through any weather, then cheaper is better. If someone can more cheaply drill into the earth core and use thermal heat (an other promising technology) then great!

If the whole UK energy grid could become fossil free, and the only cost would be a 2x increase in costs, then that would be to me a fair price to pay. It is costly, and by the look from the private companies involved a bit financially risky, but continuing burning fossil fuels is bad enough that all alternatives should be used until the last fossil fueled power plant get demolished.
I've seen plenty of companies get screwed by thinking they need to optimise BOM cost above all else. They make decisions that save a couple of dollars / unit but blow out their NRE costs and shipping dates by months or even years.
About ten years ago I had around 9 months (maybe a little more) of chronic testicular pain. It felt like someone had kicked me in the crotch about 10 minutes ago, all day every day. I've been in more pain from some injuries I've had (bike accident), but this lasted for much, much longer.

It also made sleeping difficult, as for some reason lying down was extremely uncomfortable. I ended up sleeping in a chair for several months.

I ended up cancelling a conference visit and talks just because I felt so awful and I wasn't even sure I could sleep in a hotel away from home.

One thing I look back on and realize now is that it really changed my behavior. My temper was shorter and my judgement about how to interact with others was much poorer.

Fortunately, it eventually resolved itself. I used to have flareups for a week or two every few months, then for a few days less often, and now it's been a few years since I've felt it.

All of which is to say I feel for the author. This sort of thing sucks. For anyone else who's experienced any sort of similar pain, I would encourage you to continue looking for solutions. If you can, enlist family or friends to help you do so.

I think that after a while you forget what it feels to be pain free, and it becomes easier to accept your current state. But once my pain resolved itself I realized how much of a difference it made in my life.
I suspect the downvotes are due to (1) the lack of intellectual humility and (2) misrepresentation in your comments. Plenty of physicists agree that uncomputable numbers are unphysical and the idea that infinite information density can not exist is in no way new or controversial (it is pretty much the starting point for the holographic principle, one of our main paths to a theory of everything). They are beautiful ideas worth discussing, but you used your knowledge of them to disparage people and fields which it seems you only have passing familiarity with.
I have a legendarily bad back, as does my father. One time at the office it seized up and and floored me for 45 minutes as coworkers walked by. My right leg went completely numb, and didn’t get back to normal for months.

Don’t need any suggestions, I have tried them all, lots of doctors, yes yes yes. I manage. But it is a pain in the back to deal with.
Yes on The Internet Archive.
I'm not so sure about that. a lot of neighborhoods are absolutely ecstatic that everybody is pumping doorbell camera data into the cloud.

Just read the headline, but wow! You can get covid through cellphone-recorded coughs? That explains a lot! Good thing they now have an AI model to detect that. Although I wonder how it disambiguates these infections from the ones you get in a more conventional manner?
There are a lot of unmaintained WMs that work well and are amusing for historical value or retro computing, and probably some of them have a small number of real world users too. I like the idea of a compatibilty layer for those.

Maybe not for a big project with ongoing development. But as a last resort to run some cool stuff.

Good luck. I hope things take a turn for the better.
Weird thing that I've observed. I'd never suggest it. I've met several masochists (the m in bdsm) who live with chronic pain and participate in the kink community because, as far as I can understand, it's a way to reframe the chronic pain that they experience. Or maybe, it's like getting out of a boiling hot car into the relative cool of a blazing summer day. The people I've met under these circumstances have had extreme pain tolerance, to the point where their sadists tread a fine line of giving them enough without doing damage. I know that many masochists experience (and seek) a significant endorphin response, and I've long wondered if exercising that somehow increases their endorphin production capacity -- and if that would provide an enduring benefit to those who live with chronic pain.
Sorry to hear about that. Sending you positive thoughts, I hope it gets better.
You can do this by submitting issues and concerns to open source projects.

More specifically I am thinking you mean to say employment, which suggests time in exchange for compensation. That is accounted for and owned by the employer even if used inefficiently. Why would any employer want to allow open access to the time?
Just want to voice my support. I deal with that too, and it’s almost as tiring as the pain some days.

I'm fortunate not to be in any significant pain, beyond the standard aches of nearing 40. Just wanted to say that I empathize with the OP and those of you in the comments here who are dealing with real pain and disability. The fortitude shown in the post and in many of the comments is impressive. I hope things improve for you.
There's a reason most wild animals don't live more than 5 or 6 years. Imagine living as long as a toddler, tops, because your body is completely worn out.
No. It's not. In fact I can't think of any major sports that operate in that way.

Titles/records are stripped from events where they are proven to be doping/cheating but that's usually it. Athletes are then usually banned for a period afterwards.
Yeah, easy to make a class for that in Python and you basically have a new type. It can even check itself, although I'm not sure that's a great idea :) .

Yes, probably by a factor of 2-10x in most situations. Also memory footprint is going to be far lower too, so cheaper servers/leasing of resources. It's great for webapps (or restful backends) on embedded systems in particular. As always though I've seen people far more likely to be bottlenecked on I/O and database requests than on raw computing power. Usually even python and ruby are waiting on something else :) .

Their quarterly financial filings may give you a clue... the search, YT and network ads business revenue and margins are so huge that what they do anywhere else pretty much doesn't really matter from a corporate results standpoint :-)

I've both lost and hired employees to/from Google and compared to my industry, by all accounts the culture around financial discipline appears to be way less important which may explain some of what you see.
>> The idea that a code of conduct is "never ending" does not seem like a bad thing to me.

So another area where that type of thing can happen is in union negotiations. Unions in the US started out fighting for basic decent treatment - reasonable hours and pay, safer working conditions, etc... Some years ago I was in a manufacturing plant and the break (lunch) room had a big television in it. Turns out the union had demanded the TV in their most recent contract. Someone I was speaking to berated the union "those idiots demand a TV, don't they have real concerns?" I realized the problem is that the adversarial nature had grown so bad - probably on both sides - that nothing could be had without a negotiation and putting it in writing. That goes for work from the union: "that's not my job" or worse - "you're getting written up for doing something that's someone else's job" to the management "no we're not giving you anything we don't have to by contract". Once you start writing things down and trying to nit-pick it can lead to a terrible place where nothing is easy for anyone.
In defence of the idea, if all physics is found to have a logical and mathematical basis, then doesn't all physical expression and interaction become computation?
> I honestly am a little confused by people who state they are 'anti-Fascist', but then excuse rioting over.. results of a democratic election? What's the alternative?

The US federal system of elections is not democratic, and even if it were, democracy is necessary for, but not sufficient to, a government which is in accord with the rights of the people. Popular tyranny remains tyranny, and its victims are no less justified in resisting.

Now, you can argue that the outcome these people fear would not actually be a tyranny, but that's a different argument than that your apparent argument that not submitting to a democratic output irrespective of its content is equivalent to fascism.
I do not consider "flexibility of relationship" to be at stake, since all employment is "at will," anyway. It's just a question, in my mind, of to what compensation a worker is entitled. Market dynamics demands gig companies shrink compensation as much as possible. Since gig-workers cannot negotiate their wages, they've no recourse but state intervention to balance out these market forces.

If only countries could work together to institute a global carbon tax. Pollute too much - pay the tax. Don't pollute - great and, if you are poor/developing, here is help (funded by polluters) to stay that way while still being able to develop.

I have a positive view about Hugo, I have deployed it many times successfully and even taught classes using it.

The “disable fast renderer” option (for local development) is indeed a must have, or weird things happen indeed.

My students also found the documentation difficult to grasp in particular regarding the content types and related features (section, bundles, archetypes, ...).

I actually like go templates, so it was never an issue for me.
Agreed, the spectrum ultimately is arbitrary. I was thinking in terms of a spectrum normalized to the country as a whole. In a particular district, you often have a breakdown that is off-center relative to the overall nation (of course that can be in either direction).

And in any case, the key point is that the primary process can lead to a candidate taking office who is well off-center even within their district.
South Korea is weird too, Google Maps only have pre-rendered bitmaps from local provider.

There is no evidence nuclear waste can be disposed of safely in the medium or long term. Only technocrats and elites want more nuclear energy. Its not the will of the voting public. This is a defeat for the environment and democracy.
Not only is Gibbard–Satterthwaite only applicable to ordinal voting systems, it is only applicable to single winner electoral systems.

I poked around this a bit -

Is there moderation for the chat? Or maybe this is kind of a bare bones framework for others to build on maybe?

I tend to compare chat systems that run using sql or Mysql type of DB's for the backend, to ones that don't. Would this jovo framework be doing that or similar?

Problems I've had is that some chat systems using sql DBs start to fail when I get to about 20 - 25 simultaneous chatters. Is there any kind of benchmark showing the amount of users this kind of system can handle before it starts to stall - say using a VPS or basic dedicated server?

I've tried tons of chat systems over the years - sadly the two best (for my uses) depend on flash and so are dying soon - yet none since way back when I have found have the ability to handle 600 users at once and have good moderation tools, along with being tough to hack. So I am looking desperately.
Maybe a stupid question, I don't know your exact calculations, but wouldn't you be half-counting the number of collisions, since a collision is almost always between two cars, so you're counting the miles driven by both cars, but only counting the collision between them as 1. So you'd be off by a factor of 2 if you compare that to a distance driver by a single car divided by its collisions.
Freeway-style fatality rates tend to be way lower per vehicle mile, yes.

Freeway is about 0.3 per 100 million, and the aggregate total is 3x higher than that around 1-1.2 per 100 million.

Yeah, I think the PCIe link hits a ceiling around there.

Note that combining the internal interface with the 4 NIC interfaces, and overclocking to 2.147 GHz got it up to 3.4 total Gbps. So the IRQ interrupts are the main bottleneck when it comes to total network packet throughout.
Understood and I didn’t mean to go about it that way. Was meant in jest - but I understand that it was not good for discussion to insult a community member this way. Thank you for the warning.
It's a much broader question, and much more advisory. Why do we not routinely say to people in adtech that there is a specific need for better coordination in local government? Not generally, but pointing out a specific county where that county government is visibly carrying out a specific beneficial task inefficiently?

We often feel our jobs aren't very important. Also we complain about things not getting done.

My question is why we, as a community, do not specifically match individuals' complaints about their jobs' bullshit to specific needs we know of?

>For user interfaces this is huge advantage: you can run all your code on the UI thread; but the UI stays responsive while awaiting tasks.

... assuming any other tasks/coroutines running on the UI thread are being cooperative and not doing bad things like waiting on synchronous functions or otherwise hogging the UI thread too much. Done right, it's a big performance and maintainability win over multithreading, but when done poorly, it can result in large variance in latency/responsiveness of any individual task.
Oh shoot, completely forgot to do that, as I was testing a few things one after the other and it slipped my mind. I'll have to try and see if I can get a little more out.

You could argue that the rule was created to make cars more convenient, at the expense of historical norms of on-foot transportation in towns.

Might as well mention a game I remember playing but can never find.

It was a brown-ish DOS platformer, I remember it was distributed (to me) as "mario" even though it was not a Mario clone. Probably EGA graphics? The most similar one I've seen is one of the Dangerous Dave games, but I don't think it was that! It's not "Monuments of Mars" either.

Sometimes I wonder if I dreamed it, or maybe it was a small project someone made and never properly released.

Small nitpick: CD quality is in fact 44.1khz. The nyquist theorem essentially says you need to use a sampling rate twice as high as the highest frequencies you want to record and reproduce. The article gets the gist of this right, just the cd quality numbers wrong. Izotope has a really good article that goes into digital to analog conversion, sampling rates, and the history behind them.

It's remarkable how many people I know, including myself, had significant bicycle-related trauma. I broke my ankle in three places due to a fall (do not recommend by the way, once the shock wears off the pain is pretty bad, and then after a while you have to walk on your still partially broken foot so that it heals properly). A friend of mine broke a clavicle. Another friend nearly fractured her spine. I sold my bike after the accident and wasn't tempted to buy another one since.
