Rogan is a shameless grifter. JRE #1555 was with Alex Jones, a man who shits on murdered kids for money.

So what does this have to do with tech, other than its abuse? Frontpage material, my ass.
I think they sound terrible so it’s definitely subjective :)
I've worked at a software company that received significant local government funding predicated on certain goals. One of those was hire X number of PhD graduates from the two local universities at a (relatively large) minimum salary. This then means the universities could say that a PhD from their various disciplines practically guarantees you a well paid job.

Unfortunately there was a huge gap in what was expected of these people and what they could actually do. Save but a few they were pretty awful employees for the job. Not necessarily their fault, but it's one example of the gamification of the system.
So, what is the right thing to do ?

Turkey feels less and less like a European country as the days go by, and public behavior like this should not be tolerated.

Most people only complain out of frustration about stuff they care about it.
This mirrors my experience, too. Building a simple RPM isn't too bad, even if spec files are a little arcane. Packaging for the AUR isn't super complicated as far as I've seen.

The "standard" way to build even the simplest deb file seems super overcomplicated whenever I've tried to do it, with layers of complexity, shims and fudges.

For most simple stuff you just want to specify a bit of metadata, a couple of install scripts and specify "X goes in /usr/bin/X, Y goes in /usr/share/...".

I tend to find that fpm (https://fpm.readthedocs.io/en/latest/) does that for me, and I now use it for building my own deb files pretty much everywhere.
> evolutionary adaptation ... seasons, natural cycles and variations

I noticed the amount of sleep I need varies significantly. In the summer I usually do OK with 6-7 hours, in the winter I need 8-10. And it makes sense! In winter the days are short and food is scarce, so the best strategy is to save energy and wait for summer.

My mood follows a similar seasonal cycle.

On another note, I highly recommend the r/n24 (named after non-24 hour circadian rhythm) subreddit and their Discord for support and discussion on all kinds of sleep disorders. It was very validating for me to find people with the same struggles.
The globe has been hotter, but not with humans on it
This is why I think that fighting torture is the second most important global task (after fighting climate change). All of you - all of us - who experienced unbearable pain, now imagine your pain but ten times worse, inflicted deliberately, on hours and days, over months and years, in combination with multiple other tortures, under sleep deprivation, in a state of learned helplessness.

As you read these lines, people are hanging from ceiling by hands handcuffed behind their back, being beaten all over the body until they lose consciousness, woken up and beaten over and over.

We have learned to ignore what is routinely happening in countries like SA, Egypt, NK, Turkey, China and many, many others. We use the newspeak "human rights abuse" to soften the sound of it, to avoid the emotional disturbance that comes with imagining the profesional, large scale, indiscriminate torture programs in countries that are our military allies and trade partners.
Organizations like Grey Wolves deserve a crackdown and their members deportation.

If they love their neo-Ottoman sultan so much, they should enjoy the great Peace and Prosperity he built in Turkey proper, including the Glorious and Strong Turkish Lira. Not live among the unbelievers and pay with their dirty Euro.

Membership in Grey Wolves should be considered on par with membership in neo-Nazi structures. No reasonable country would suffer foreign neo-Nazis building structures right under their noses.

Thank you, this has been entertaining.
About 3, they might allow it but several countries don't, notably Germany (for Turkish descendants, if their citizenship is not revoked)

Of course the left doesn't like this as apparently being cannon fodder for one government while being a citizen of another is cool so...
There used to be a line between op-ed (i.e. subjective-centric) and news (i.e., important, relevant and objective-centric); and journalism used to be firmly alighted with the news side of that paradigm.

Things have changed. Dramatically. And for the worse. Anything and everything is considered news. Relevance and important are not longer relevant; the reporting shamelessly anti-objective. Anyone can at this point call themselves a journalist, without any understanding of the actions and ethics such a title entails. Axe-grinding and whistle-drowning are all too common.

The bottom line: A healthy, proper and transparent Fourth Estate matters. I can't speak for the rest of the world but in the USA the Fourth Estate is in the ICU, and has been for some time now. This is not a diagnosis that is new since Jan 2017.
I haven't compared ram usage but vscode feels (subjectively obviously) very slow by comparison to me. Intellij is a beast of an application in terms of features also.

I didn't notice this on my recent read. Can you think of an example?
Sarno's book didn't help me either. I wasn't even sure what the point was, until I watched a documentary called "All the Rage" (available on Amazon Prime in the US) on Sarno and his method, which at least clarified the whole thing for me.

One of the things Sarno advises before taking him on is that every other medical condition that could possibly be relevant has been investigated and ruled out.
Registering an XSS attack as a UK company name
I think the world is progressively realising that islamists are taking over the muslim world. What is unhelpful is that many confuse islamists and jihadists, which are a tiny fraction of islamists. Erdogan is a muslim brother.

You can do the exercise (I did) of going through every muslim country on the map, from Morocco to Indonesia, and lookup the recent political history of that country on wikipedia. In every single of these countries, no exception, either:

- the Islamists are in power or one of the largest political parties (Iran, Saudi Arabia, Marocco, Turkey, Pakistan, etc)

- the Islamists were one of the largest political forces but have been banned (doesn't mean they are not present) (Jordan, Algeria, etc)

- the Islamists are one of main the parties to a civil war (Libya, Syria, Yemen, etc)

I don't know what can be done in the west. I see this as a kind of repeat of communism. It's an idea which time has come. You don't get people to change their mind by force. They need to experience why it sucks before turning against the idea (in that respect Iran is probably leading the way, where the islamists seem to increasingly lose support of the population). And it doesn't mean it's a homogenous block (neither was communism).
There are a lot of right-wing Bernie Sanders supporters! A huge part of his appeal is general stances against corruption. Also, though Bernie is more anti-capitalist than most Democrats, he is also very squishy on issues of racism and misogyny. There are a lot of voters out there who support left-wing economics and right-wing social policy, and Bernie has appeal for a lot of them. There’s a large contingent on the left who are anti-“identity politics.”

My dad is center-right, despises Republicans, and likes Bernie (votes for him in both primaries) but thinks Ocasio-Cortez, Omar, and Tlaib are too radical. In terms of economic policy this makes little sense, but that’s not what’s going on here.
It's a consequence of these media outlets being more "entertainment" then actual news. When the news itself gets lost in a circlejerk from whichever direction because they have to fill hours in a day or words on a page with otherwise meaningless opinion and/or conjecture then it's easy to be disillusioned by it.
You say that, but its effecting Florida now and they're still just denying AGW
Glenn is not right wing in the least. He’s a staunch socialist.

And who cares if he went on Tucker. Is there a rule that you can’t talk to the “other side”?

And could you expand on your list of “you must say this to be on my good side”? I hear drones, anything else?

Your commentary actually sounds like an attack on everything but what his actual beliefs are.
A few things are striking me:

- Turkey spent like decades denying any harm done to Armenians in general. Then for ~no reason at all, and not even in a place where Armenians are especially visible, a group of Turks decide to hunt some in the streets ? absurd squared

- That's yet another barbaric racist movement coming back from the past. Neo Nazis rallies in the US were a sad surprise after 45th PUSA election but now Turks ? .. if this is a social fever thermometer, it seems the fever is there.
The only explanation I can find to why these organizations can grow openly at certain European countries while their neighbours prevent it, is that some people at intelligence and law enforcement agencies are enabling it, and maybe local politicians as well.
Economies of scale. Most of the cost for a traditional nuclear plant is regulatory&decomissioning. If new nuclear can get over that, and it's allowed to go through a couple of iterations (which happens much faster nowadays), there is really no way to estimate how low the price can go. A 10x reduction is not out of question, if you look at SpaceX for example, another industry where innovation has been frozen for decades.
an article on the guardian, talking about moving to a democrat city LOL shocking
I am just connecting dots here with intermittent fasting article that was posted somewhere yesterday.

Scott is writing about cognitive dissonance where you feel the pain and you just want to stop physical therapy. But going through the pain and doing therapy is going to make it all better in the long term.

Main point would be staying in bed all days is easier than exercising, not eating whole day is harder than eating sweets all day, going through more pain to relieve it later is harder as well. Unfortunately we are mostly wired to get short term benefits right now and a person has to really put in effort to go for long term benefits.
Interesting. Now that is not a perspective I could get from across the ocean just by reading the news. Thank you.
Despite the extreme bias of Fox News - and I can't believe I'm writing this - it is still a bit less biased than CNN. I very occasionally see articles lightly criticizing Trump there and recently they had a piece talking about the pros and cons of each presidential candidate. So while Fox is 99% biased towards Trump, CNN appears 100% biased against him.

Actually, I've been reading both sites in the past few months. My rule of thumb is that while each site in isolation is unreadable, whatever they agree on (which is very little) must be the truth!
Yes, it was puzzling for me too. I mean, there was this movie "Crash" once. The plot and the motivations, all so completely alien to my own culture.

Look harder. Try to catch the part that is never told, because it is too hard to be told.

But once it falls into place, your standard model will start to make sense. Americans are no different humans than any others, well, duh.
The NYT apologised for their Iraq war coverage [1].
The people involved in your [2] and [3] got fired/resigned, and acted on their own.

Meanwhile the right wing media still hangs on to lies or very misleading reporting/propaganda without consequences. Is there any apology for the WMD reporting by right wing media? Did any fox news staffers got fired for propagating lies (climate change not existing for example)?
On the contrary, the very popular Fox news anchor Shepard Smith ended his career because of misleading reports (Clinton + uranium one) spread by fox news.

Claiming they are somewhat similar is plain wrong. Also, it's the classic 'trick' used by self described centrists to normalize right wing ideas when in reality on is clearly more wrong than the other (e.g. Hunter Biden conspiracy vs Trump nepotism).

My current understanding from the research I've read but don't have to hand:
a) A lot of people with ADHD also have autism so the symptoms get lumped together but ADHD's actual symptoms (executive function issues, time blindness, rejection sensitivity, unexpected drug interactions etc) are completely unrelated
b) ADHD symptoms never go away, adults just learn to hide them and develop coping strategies because it's largely socially unacceptable to be weird

If each solar farm consisted of one giant solar panel I'm sure we would see exactly the same problem. In reality building a solar farm involves redoing one simple step over and over again. It's much easier to scale up.
My rough calculations me that switching my 1970s UK detached home from gas to electric for hot water and central heating would triple my usage costs (and that doesn't include the cost of switching in the first place).

I'm still interested in doing it though because it would massively simplify the heating system. Removing gas from the system would mean I could do all the regular maintenance by myself whereas at present I'm obliged to use a registered, gas-trained plumber on the boiler itself because the law requires it.
I'm a nuclear fanboy, and I don't hate renewables. Nor do I know anybody who does. We just want nuclear to be allowed. After that, of course it's a matter of results. But currently the narrative is that "we don't want nuclear, because we have renewables"
It could be, but coming from happy Energiewende Germany, as a household you pay more than twice as much for your power as any industrial or commercial user, 30ct/kWh vs. 12ct/kWh. The difference comes from the usual rebates, but the largest part is that commercial users don't pay the renewable tax that is mandatory for non-commercial users. For the really big users, such as smeltings, there are additional subsidies on top to keep the price of power even lower.

So the situation might be different elsewhere, but in Germany, poor consumers pay for Energiewende plus subsidies.
It is not acceptable from either side. Nor is whataboutism.
It’s a huge mistake to go grasping for an adaptive explanation to every single mutation. The null hypothesis is that “this disorder doesn’t kill people before sexual maturity, or provide some reproductive gain” and there’s literally no evidence for anything else. You are speculating about a solution to something that isn’t actually a mystery.

And as I said in another comment, the disorder this mutation causes is not normal “sleep late, wake late” night owl syndrome.
The vast majority of people don't have a coherent ideology.

It legitimately comes down to however you frame a question to someone.
Turkey and its brotherly nation, Azerbaijan are currently at war with Armenia trying to ethnically cleanse the Nagorno-Karabagh region. Tragically, US politics have overshadowed this war.
I hate to repeat my self but this articles keep piling up.
Vote with your money first, then if you have a way search legislative measures. They will never stop to search a way to profit more. This is just a beginning. Fully closed macs are coming. I don't care anymore for iPhones, my professional problem is with apple desktops and laptops. If we follow Apple logic in near future I will have to Jailbreak my personal computer that costs arm and a leg and cannot do 3rd party repairs on it. I am filling now very good about the decision to invest in multi platform software and avoid mac only apps. On a phone side someone suggested Fairphone (https://www.fairphone.com/en/) as an alternative. I can see a lot a value in this proposition, after rooting and removing Google crap/spyware.

For one, we could stop aiding islamists to overthrow non-islamist governments, as we did for example in Libya.
Maybe they are both extreme, but I believe they are extreme in very different ways.
It might be simpler explanation. Homo Sapiens evolved in Africa where there are no long winter nights and huge variations of daily cycle throughout the year. Also humans can do shit in sunlight only. Like hunt.

Then we moved to a different zone where there is longer nights and then we learned to do stuff that could be useful to be done "after hours". The pressure on good nights sleep immediately after dark lessened. Actually, people had to learn to work in the dark because in central and northern Europe there isn't much sunlight in the winter. Even in daytime there is usually overcast and no direct sunlight.
NZ is the worlds largest dairy exporter. ALL of NZ is close to the sea. Many islands are the world's food basket for bananas, coffee, coconut, palm oil (which is MASSIVE) and those are just the ones I can think of off the top of my head.

Of course it is not, but this article trying hard to portray it as it is one sided problem.
I find it’s often due to people getting frustrated and not knowing his deal with it in an emotionally helpful way.

See it in kids constantly, adults often.

Kids getting mad at the cat for not liking being dressed in doll clothes.

Yes you care about the cat. However now everyone including the cat is unhappy.

Childish behavior, except it still hurts when loved ones get mad at you for not recovering fast enough.

Parents offered me some pills (blood thinners) that might solve some problems.

They got very upset when I refused without a doctors consent.

Only thing I wanted from them was emotional support. Instead I had go cut them off for a year.

All because they couldn’t fix me.

Here's a story from the East German era... In East Germany it was illegal to watch Western TV, but it was possible because the West deliberately had strong transmitters aimed at the East. There was a tradition that the evening news began by showing a big clock ticking for a few seconds with a chime on the hour that started the broadcast. People used to set their wall clocks and watches to this. On the West's channel this clock was round, on the East's it was square. So in East Germany they asked children in school to draw the clock they saw on television, and if it was the wrong shape their family would get a visit from the Stasi.
I don’t think the root of it is what you’re describing. It’s just plain old fear of death.

If your pain can be fixed, it means you aren’t at risk of just keeling over dead one day. Except that’s exactly what will happen. And in all such matters, “you” means me, “for whom the bell tolls”-style.
There is an example of the US tax code on the landing page of website (https://catala-lang.org/en/) so they actually seem to have also tried the language on English-written law!
Hey HN,

I made and launched Just Launched around a week ago. Was a fun experiment where I had an idea and two days later I put it on Product Hunt.

I think there is a space for a startup index/directory that doesn't overwhelm you with 10 startups a day, hopefully this is that.
I think this topic is really interesting. There is also an effort to encode US law: https://law.stanford.edu/codex-the-stanford-center-for-legal... (It's independent of this one as far as I know)

Wouldn't it be great to have laws managed in a git repo.
In the same situation here, have an iPhone 11 that is due to be replaced.

The iPhone 12 is lighter but has worse battery life, so that one is out.

The Sony Xperia 5 II is the current favorite as it has very good battery life and no annoying notch.

And the recent Apple vs Epic case is making the switch easier.
It wasn't only The Atlantic that ignored that. I didn't see a single media outlet acknowledge it. Not a single "friend" on FB or Twitter called it out. Not since Eisenhower had the MIC been recognized by a POTUS like that, and the reference wasn't ignored; it wasn't even recognized. That's highly disturbing.

But it gets worse. Under the current admin the DoD budget has ballooned to nearly three-quarters of a trillion dollars. Imagine that. The POTUS is able to inflate that budget with nearly zero outrage, and then he turns around and calls out the MIC and again no outrage (about the hypocrisy).

The disconnect - media and public - is flabbergasting. How can this be? In plain sight??
don,t change the subject. you don,t know me.

sleeping same hours every day is not a given.
Support groups are a good place.
Lots of forums dedicated to most chronic conditions. Much safer to ask advice in those places.
I don't think any of the people they assassinated were even alive at the time of the Armenian genocide, so it's really not comparable.
It's similar, yes.

Pretty inconvenient, with chickens apparently this sometimes happens by accident. They don't get up, ever. They lie there until they get attacked or just die.
There is a decent Armenian community in France. It’s the country in Europe where they are the most visible. Lots of Armenians were welcome after the genocide.

That said, I entirely agree. The timing is suspect as well, with Erdogan ramping up propaganda.
Well, that’s just shit medical care.
Putting up barriers won't stop the water rising. And the vast majority of small island nations won't be able to afford to wall off their entire landmass

>Who is spreading xenophobia against Turkish people?

Article from Vice itself is pure xenophobia.

>If I click that link I only see Turkish text, what am I supposed to read?

Read the Vice article at OP it says same. If you want translation here you go,

"Armenian activists, who blocked the A7 highway near Lyon, France, attacked a group of Turkish citizens going to work with a stick, ax and knife, causing serious injuries to 2 TURKS aged 17 and 22!"

>Also what does this protest have to do with a fascist group on an ethnic cleansing hunt?

Nobody ethnic cleansing anyone here, no point in dramatizing events.By doing so, you just empty the meanings of words.
I had the same issue with the Macbook Pro battery. The laptop is just a couple months beyond the 1-year warranty and Apple did not recognize it as their fault.

Needless to say, I'm happy now with Archlinux despite it took a while to set the whole thing up. I don't think I'll be buying any more Apple laptops but for phones, I don't think Android is doing any better.
