Some suggestions for Nova by Panic:

- Diff viewer

- Quit should simply save my current dirty work like sublime, vscode etc.

- Auto completion needs some work

But - love the full screen terminal, and the fact that it has most of the features of 'utility extensions' I use in VSCode built in.

Silly me...we can just take this "well tailored disease" down off the shelf. It's next to the disease that takes out invasive rats, kudzu and cockroaches with no potential side effects. Couldn't be simpler. Nope...no delusion here.
Love JuliaLang. But it definitely comes across as a language defined by its implementation. It is poorly specified relative to most popular languages. Appreciate the work by the paper's authors, though.
How does this work on a total comp basis? Aren't the details (pension, healthcare, etc.) typically worth ~25%.
How is using youtube-dl different to using a "VCR" and recording OTA television?
Here's something fun to think about. Instead of evil Skynet, suppose the entity resurrecting long-dead brains is a benevolent entity. As such, it would avoid resurrecting people against their will. How would it determine which people wanted to be resurrected? One method would be to scan the memories for events such as accepting our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. People who did that would be resurrected because it's obvious they want to be resurrected. Atheists who spent their lives preaching oblivion would be left alone, since resurrection would obviously torment them with cognitive dissonance :)
Exactly this! Thank you. ZeroHedge almost seems to be designed to induce anxiety and spread disinformation.
It's strange to me because I've been using adblokcers for as long as I've been watching things online, as do a large percentage of people, I'm sure. So does it really matter that much to YouTube when I download some video, considering me watching it brings it literally no benefit? What's the gain here?
Sure, but if they're going to be an editorialized platform they should be held liable for the content of each and every tweet.

It’s hard to fathom how much we’ve fucked up our environment and ourselves overall. I think we polluted ourselves into a corner and are headed for extinction (and taking most of life on earth with us)

It’s sad to think about but it’s hard to argue we don’t deserve it after all.
> Your ISP and phone provider are private/non-state-owned entities too.

Even if we agree that they are the right comparators, there's a problem for using that pair as a reference for how online service providers should be treated, since phone providers have a strong neutrality mandate and ISPs have none, so it basically provides no guidance whatsoever.
Genuinely curious: if it’s a growth thing, how did PayPal get where they are today? I know eBay was involved, but not much more than that.
It's a bit tragic: Most tools have a potentially negative/illegal use case. These developers advertising those uses, even if it was just in the source code, wasn't a good idea. Now there is an uphill battle to legitimize its use again.

Worthless or a stepping stone? The Platonic conception of knowledge is obvious nonsense today. I am, in my epistemology, superior to Plato. But it is named Platonic though I achieved the understanding of its flaws as a teenager. And even just for the conception of this epistemology, Plato is remembered. It is not known as Wiltordian epistemology after my teenage revelations.

That's because in many things in science and knowledge, being among the first to predict things wrong in an interesting manner is valuable.
Yes, I'm aware (see my nearby comment for more detail).

I very much enjoy writing Common Lisp, but use SBCL almost exclusively specifically because of the amount of (static) type checking it does. Even then, there are significant limitations that often leave me frustrated in comparison.
>It's mostly covered in the wiki under each of their paragraphs though.

You're hoping that people won't bother to read said Wiki, or get confused by the legalese.

Papadopoulos: Indicted for making a false statement to FBI.

Manafort and Gates: Indicted for not registering as foreign agents of Ukraine (which, you might have noticed, is sort of an enemy of Russia right now)

Flynn: Indicted for making a false statement to FBI. (Forced by lack of legal fees into pleading guilty, which later caused problems when the government tried to drop charges.)

Pinedo (Who? Exactly): Indicted for identity fraud.

van der Zwaan: Indicted for making false statements (and not an American, anyway).

Cohen: Indicted for making false statements.

Stone: Indicted for making false statements and witness tampering.

Then we have people like Carter Page, whose name was raked over the coals for years because a FBI lawyer intentionally altered evidence (https://www.nytimes.com/2019/12/09/us/politics/fbi-ig-report...) showing that far from being a Russian asset, Page had for years briefed the CIA every time he met with suspicious Russians. (Got to love how the Times describes said altering evidence as a "serious error".) You want an actual Russiagate-related indictment and guilty plea? Kevin Clinesmith, said FBI lawyer, is your man.

With OTA, it is okay to record OTA broadcasts using a VCR, so I'm not sure why youtube-dl would be different.
But do you see the difference between teaching people about structural racism and having them stand up and declare "I am a racist" and "I am a gatekeeper of white supremacy?" Two things about that are outside acceptable norms:

1) Having people declare personal complicity for a general social ill; and

2) Using words that have widely-understood connotations to mean something different in order to achieve shocking rhetorical effect.

It's not just inconsistent with social norms, it's alienating to many non-white people. I don't think the well-meaning white people doing this (and almost everyone involved in this is white) really understand that we have to actually go on and try to interact normally our professors and administrators after this.
Not happening, recent polls suggest that in Germany, 55% percent of the population is willing to get the vaccine.

That isn't enough for herd immunity (at around 60%) and real vaccination rate will be even lower.

There is also no chance in hell that Germans will allow a government-mandated vaccine. It's unconstitutional and there is heavy opposition to government-mandated anything throughout all of society.

So we will be stuck with this virus. But you're free to get the vaccine yourself for your own protection.

You can have sandboxes that are not capability-based. It refers to a specific style of modeling the problem.

Absolutely! S-expression (used in Scheme, Lisp, etc) is a great AST-based syntax to start building an interpreter right away. But for fully ergonomic language you would need a parser for a more complex syntax.

Bootguard isn't UEFI Secure Boot, and it works with Intel PTT in that the bootguard data is measured into the TPM. The signing keys used for Bootguard aren't in the TPM. Bootguard only protects system firmware, it does nothing to protect the ME firmware (which is where PTT lives). The flow is:

1) You apply power. The ME is powered up and reads its firmware out of flash. Most components of this firmware have signatures verified[1] and the ME then boots
2) The ME examines the state of the fuses in flash in order to determine whether to impose a Bootguard policy. If so, it verifies the signature of the firmware bootblock against a key fingerprint that's been blown into the chipset fuses. Depending on policy, a failed validation will either block the system from booting, allow the system to boot but cut power after 30 minutes (in order to allow remediation to occur) or do nothing. If the policy specifies that measurements should be performed, a measurement will be generated and pushed to the TPM (PTT, if you're using it)
3) The system firmware bootblock (running on the system CPU) will perform validation of the rest of the firmware, generating additional TPM measurements. The TPM is a passive component here - no key material is stored in the TPM, and the TPM cannot prevent boot proceeding if the signatures don't match. It's up to the firmware code itself to do that.
4) Once the firmware is up and running, it'll end up loading a bootloader. If UEFI Secure Boot is enabled, the signature on the bootloader will be verified against a set of permitted certificates stored in a UEFI variable in flash. The bootloader will be measured into PCR 4 and the certificate used will be measured into PCR 7, but again the TPM doesn't hold any key material and isn't able to block the system from booting.
5) If you're booting Windows and Bitlocker is enabled, the OS will ask the TPM to hand over the disk encryption key. The TPM will only do so if the PCR values match the policy associated with the key (usually just the value of PCR 7). This is the first time the TPM can do anything that would stop the system from booting, and also the first time we're using any key material that's in the TPM. But at this point, we're well past UEFI Secure Boot.

> Do you mean chipset (which could be on the motherboard)

Yes, otherwise you wouldn't be able to move CPUs between boards that have firmware signed by different vendors. The exception is the U and Y series mobile parts, where the chipset is on-package with the CPU. But those are only available as SMT parts, so it's less of an issue.

[1] The ME stores and parses some data files, which aren't verified. This resulted in https://www.blackhat.com/docs/eu-17/materials/eu-17-Goryachy...
It makes me sad to see native apps fade out in many cases. Maybe it’s just nostalgia - I spent many summers making little native applications with Delphi or Xcode, and had plenty of fun. There’s still something beautiful - and irreplaceable - in my opinion, about a well-designed native app.

Sure, some Electron apps are pretty, but I’d prefer to have my minimally-styled, “boring-looking”, native macOS and Windows software back.

Twitter's actions prompting legislators to be interested in modifying section 230 is different than Twitter not acting in accordance with section 230. Section 230 explicitly allows them to moderate, and says that they do not lose their protections just because they do some moderation.

The official case numbers in Japan probably drastically undercount the number of infections due to limited testing. A recent antibody seroprevalence study found 46% positive. It wasn't a truly random sample but had a large study population from multiple locations. If mask wearing is such a big factor than how did so many people get infected?

Another alternative to lying is playing the stock comp games companies play. "My comp has a large stock component, and as you know, it's tough to put a dollar number on it. Given current valuation estimates/growth trend/TAM/exit hopes/whatever, I'd estimate my total comp around [the high end of what I think you would consider reasonable]."

If they say it's too high, then you can say you might be willing to take a little less, potentially, for more of that to be cash/public liquid options/predictable/stable/whatever.

Obviously, lots of people use it for legitimate reasons.

The different, Google would argue, is that YouTube-dl doesn't download the ads, while a VCR captures ads and content alike.

But really, if the VCR were invented today, it would be made illegal.

Britain said that they could go for a "herd immunity strategy", several European governments said that masks were not useful for ordinary people, claims that the virus was under control, even people saying "don't stop going to bars", entire governments deciding to stop releasing information about cases, etc., etc.

There was a whole lot that people didn't know, especially early. There were quite a few failures of communication and delays.

China was certainly communicating warnings about the virus by early January.
Imagine how much Fox News and a hundred talk radio shows would contribute in that scenario.

Experience and teaching - those are important. The moment you have to teach someone, you will figure out you don’t actually understand it. Then you will go back and do all the other things you said to prove to yourself everything you know and get better because of it.

Experience is teaching yourself - everyone thinks that you need someone to teach you something. That’s not right - other people giving you thinks to do is the opportunity to teach yourself the best way to do something. Look at it that way and you are going to progress very quickly.
Are people really that savvy? Somehow I expect most people are more thinking where they feel like living, and where they can get a good job, then buying a home they can afford there.
wouldn't it be like we did with plastic bottles to the oceans? only imagine if the bottles could self-replicate. Pollution at intergalactic scale. Probably getting to specific levels of technology requires specific level of consciousness - a corresponding level of awareness about actions and consequences. A technological level increase without corresponding consciousness level increase is probably one of the great filters. Like for example human civilization failure to recognize the human civilization induced global warming.

wrt. original post :

>For ΛCDM to fit the pattern of fluctuations observed in the CMB by the Planck satellite and other experiments, the Hubble constant must have a particular value of 67.4 ± 0.5 km/s/Mpc. Local measurements are nearly all above this ‘Planck value’, but are consistent with each other. In our paper, we use a local value of 73.8 ± 1.1 km/s/Mpc using a combination of supernovae and gravitationally lensed quasars, two particularly precise yet independent techniques.

I think it is not an accident that c divided by the age of the universe (meaning that those stars have been flying away from us with constant speed c) produces 71km/s/Mpc. That also means that there is no acceleration nor deceleration - stars fly away from us with constant speed [Hubble constant x distance] with the distance growing and the Hubble constant decreasing resulting in the same speed for any given star.
> The true immortality requires indestructibility

I'm not sure what consciousness is. I think of it as a transient emergent configuration of neural systems, like waves in an ocean, but I could be wrong.

Are you sure the you that wakes up in the morning is the same you that went to bed? Are you even the same person, moment to moment?

Weights change. Membrane polarizations are in flux. Microtubules, just one component in a deep sea of biochemical complexity, are dynamical.

> The true immortality

These are just words.

Evolution found genes as a solution. That's what your kids are. Humans have done even more with recorded words. I'd like to think that one day we can do the same with thoughts and minds themselves.

I like to imagine a future where you could download part of my mind and experience it yourself.

Well that's all up to the buyer, but most people are risk averse when it comes to their home. The default mortage term is 30 years, and most people fix the interest rate 20 or 30 years.

People who took a shorter term for the interest rate in the past 10 years, now have a housing cost of a few hundred euros, because it came down from 3-4%.

House prices in capital cities are telling of how much confidence we have in our world and the economy.

In Australia, we give out home loans for 30 year periods. Nearly 100 years ago, it was unthinkable to loan out money for that long (2 world wars fit into a 30 year window).

House prices are high because interest rates globally are low and the borrowing period is far into the future. I'm unsure what kind of market force is required to change this and I really hope we don't see 40 or 50 year loans.
A large number of alternative news outlets have been catching YouTube bans under the cover of the QAnon crackdown. I'm sure it's just a coincidence that the main archiving tool one could use to migrate off of YouTube is being squelched at the same time.
