According to my dictionary, "addresses" means:

> think about and begin to deal with (an issue or problem)

It doesn't imply that the solution has been fully implemented.

> What about Jehovah's witnesses

Usually the rule is that when it only affects the believer, it's ok. There are, however, sensible arguments against it based on the damage those beliefs cause to others, in special children of Jehovah's witnesses as individuals and the collective risk children deliberately not vaccinated going to schools and spreading disease to kids who can't be vaccinated (because of age or allergies or any other medical reason).

Key word being, "more likely". An unfortunate effect of scale and cheapness of digital ads is that even if the effect of retargeting on any given visitor is very tiny, it still makes economical sense to deploy it, as it'll add up. The extra marginal annoyance and frustration inflicted on everyone who views those ads is, of course, just an externality.

Fact-checking is biased?

Wow. The depths of conservative delusions know no bounds.

There is still time. Rumours of my demise have been greatly exaggerated.
That's a pretty stupid take because the combination of genes is unique for each life form so those genes are just as trapped in our bodies as the bodies are trapped in themselves.

If you want to talk about genes as an immortalizing life form then those genes are just as prone to natural selection as the carrier. Some genes are old, some are new. New genes have an incredibly high attrition rate. Not much different from nature. Genes are suckers and losers just like their carriers.

Indeed, "a lot of good to great quality work fast" smells a bit of "SLOC per day" count.

"SLOC per day" is the opposite of productivity: terrible developers can produce tons of bloated and unnecessary code.

I think you are massively underestimating the natural range of human intelligence.

I don't think the average IQ 100 individual could ever reach an ELO of 2000 regardless of how much they practice, and half the population has IQs of less than 100.
If you're serious about wanting to learn Japanese, the first thing you need to do is remove the training wheels and start using kana. Romaji is meant squarely at people who can't and don't intend to read Japanese, and for them "chi" is much closer to /ʧi/ than Kunrei's "ti", even though it violates the symmetry of the た行 and thus obscures some verb conjugations the casual reader won't care about.

As for pitch accents, Japanese is only very weakly tonal and what tone there exists is regional to boot, so nobody is going to get confused if you order nihon of beer with the wrong tone. (This is manifestly not the case for, say, Chinese.)
Orchestration is in practice almost always a useful illusion.

Usefull in the sense of 'all models are wrong some models are usefull'.

The systemic trick is to treat the orchestration model as an expression of intent, then use both domain and meta heuristics to translate it to a choreography.

It implies Apple has 'begun to deal' with the issue when the only thing we may have is a plan to do this sometimes in the near future.

> User-facing web apps just aren’t a core application target for most people who use Ocaml, and probably won’t ever be.

Some industrial Ocaml users use the web as a UI. I'm fairly certain Jane Street does it for exemple. That's very much user-facing web apps.

I understand that it's not something that interests you but there has been plenty of work geared towards building web applications in Ocaml (and Reason). Saying it probably won't ever be a core application target seems quite wrong.
What a lovely fond memories of having to research and use the very first several versions of Snort IDS and its first IPS (Hogwash) about 20 years ago [1],[2].

I'd like to test this new system on the cheaper Xilinx ULtraScale+ FPGA using the provided software [3], but not sure will it even work with different FPGA set up with minimum change [4]?

Another thing is that it will be interesting to test and compare it with eBPF based IPS system bypassing the kernel without the need for FPGA? It seems that for Suricata IDS/IPS it has been proposed but no performance metrics are provided of the effort [5].

It is inevitable, sorry. Once you are done accepting that, it has already taken over the world. We would appreciate it if you could hurry the process so you can participate in the actual (attempted) control of this inevitable process instead of denying it.
Yes it is.
Have you tried e.g. for a week to never use ANY service that is from Google?

Normally people thing it is just search, but search is just the tip of the iceberg.

In case of EU, you just need to wait max 5 years for next elections and you can have your input by voting (in case of Google you can send your input to /dev/null of their automated "customer service").

Would you be able to avoid (just for one week):

- google analytics,

- GCP (this one is hard),

- youtube,

- google dns servers,

- android without any google services (or just iOS, this one might be easier if you already have iPhone, but for majority of people it is not easy),

- adwords/adsense

- fonts

- translate

- pay (again, easier of you are iPhone user)

- photos

- maps

- charts (you can have link to those on web pages)

- chrome

- gmail (if you don't have account there then it is easy, if you have - it is almost impossible to change your email address everywhere)

And also imagine a person that is an "average Joe", has cheap Android phone, uses Chrome without any ad blocking and has email account in gmail.

Would it be easy for him? Or would it be easier to go voting?
Or find a job in neighboring country that doesn't belong to EU (e.g. Switzerland or Norway, not sure if UK counts right now) ?
I think it might be related to the leverage Software Engineers have compared to people in other fields.

It's possible for a single Software Engineer to stand up an entire system by themselves. Most other fields don't have anywhere near that amount of leverage.
I don't think that would be a concern here - donor organs don't just suddenly show up at the blink of an eye, they need to be carefully extracted and prepped in an operating room. There's certainly enough time to prep a helicopter crew, if there isn't any on standby.

That said, at least in Germany and the surrounding countries, there's a fairly dense network of rescue helicopters which are usually ready on the pad, crew on standby. They're supposed to be airborne within minutes.
It's relative to the pool of individuals, and there are tons of caveats (as other posters mentioned).

Despite this, due to the size of the pools of individuals and relative seriousness of players who belong to official tournament organisations, the ratings have been fairly stable. Yes, there's been some inflation, but I'd say it's somewhat been in line with the increase in knowledge and training methods. While the system has all kinds of minor issues, it's still "quite good", especially when we compare it to other sports or activities with a more variable pool and quality.

In this sense, most people know what 1600, 1800, 2000, etc, mean to fairly precise degree.
I don't see how Apple can address this: they already collected the data as an unavoidable function of having performed the intended action.

Any attempt to claim that they do nothing with this data, and choose not to store it for future use, are red herrings: they will do whatever what their shareholders, the government, et al. tell them to do with it, and will do so without notifying users, and do so retroactively if possible.

There is also no way to audit their backend to prove that they are, indeed, doing exactly what they claim to be doing, ergo, the only safe OSX system is one that has Gatekeeper entirely disabled in leu of a local-only switch.

Due to enterprise security concerns with leaking attack targets via signed binaries cert chain/OCSP checking, Windows since Vista already allowed disabling of this obvious hole.

I know a lot of Cult of Apple are going to climb up my ass for saying this, but this continues to highlight that OSX is not, and probably never will be, enterprise ready. Apple needs their own Nadella-type of CEO before I'll change my opinion on this.
Apple execs had by far the upper hand while negotiating the contract than ARM execs did. The entire environment at the time was "we will do whatever apple wants".

Shortsighted really considering there weren't really any other options for instruction sets for apple to choose - all this stuff was signed before RISCV was a thing, and PPC and MIPS had pretty high barriers to entry (lots of porting work, lacking SIMD type instructions, and another migration for all apple devs) and poor performance.
I sympathize with this as I had a laptop with Nvidia Optimus and installed Linux on it back before it was really supported, which wasn't fun.

However with Dell XPS Linux version, Lenovo has a couple, and also System76 and things you have now hundreds of laptops guaranteed to work and many more that actually still will. Just research them first if you're not sure. These days there is so much info on laptops that work well.

The first class supported ones like XPS (which I'm on my second) get firmware updates etc. it gets easier and easier every year.
I'm not sure how high your requirement on the "it just werks" factor are, but I can not recommend borgbackup enough for general use. They have a script[0] for local backups one can copy-paste in a cronjob and it takes care of backups reliably from that day on. Saved me from my own stupidity more times than I'm comfortable admitting.

Agile exists to micromanage people.
Not any bigger than package repositories on linux distributions, which include the list of all known software and sometimes even rules how to build them.

It's just plain text. If I can have a local dump of wikipedia, I'm pretty sure I can store a list of developer IDs. Especially when I'm a company controlling the hardware and knowing what is the minimum amount of space the hard drives have in my computers.

Vacuums is not the worst of it. I made a mistake of looking for a junk removal company with shields down. Every marketing software on the planet got the idea "oh, this guy is really into junk removal, let's help him!" and all ads in every place where I couldn't disable them were about junk removal for half a year at least. Needless to say the junk I need removed was long gone after the first week. Now if I ever need junk removed again in a year or two... well, actually I already forgot all those ads, so it was just a waste of money for them.
Lovely though this would be, it's hard to imagine a less 'Apple' product which is still a computer.

> Well, as stated before, morality isn't the same between humans. There's no objective authority that decides X is right or Y is wrong, simply social/cultural influences throughout the world.

Worth remembering that it's also not the case that every person has different morality, and everyone's moral values are uniformly distributed across the space of possible values.

No, the moral values of humans are all very strongly correlated, both within and across societies. We spend a lot of time bikeshedding the details, but we essentially have a shared sense of what's right and wrong.

(I hypothesize it's because we all have the same brain architecture - the basic moral sense is encoded in firmware, and through culture we adapt it to fit the environments and societies we live in.)

That's amazing. I love that game dearly and have been playing on/off for more than 15 years, so I get routinely obsessed with it, play a lot a few weeks, get good against the AI (usually using cheese like huskarl spam or massed mangudai), then get my ass handed to me online & ends up quitting. Then I don't play for a year or so.

At which point were you able to reliably not fail the boar lure ?

There is funny business going on at manjaro, but by god do they deliver! I run 5 linux computers at home for various ends and I got tired of putting a new Ubuntu on them every now and then. At the time I looked at manjaro, other rolling distros couldn't even survive an update from the latest installation media to current (sidux). Arch is/was a hobby in itself and the opposite of what I was seeking, but it is an excellent foundation. Manjaro has kept these 5 machines for over 5 years through every possible update and it never broke them. Kernel switching is a joy. Driver installing switching is a joy. This is a very tall order.

That said I do hope endeavouros or others can fill Manjaro's immense boots.

For those who wonder what the bottom line in the article is why time isn’t just another dimension: There is a minus sign and the speed of light in front of time in the space-time metric. It is argued that the minus sign comes about because time is imaginary (in complex number terms). I don’t find this convincing. One could still argue that time is just an ordinary dimension and the structure of the metric is just a property of how we measure distances.
Hybrids are no win at all. They would have been a great idea, of more companies had followed the lead of Toyota, which is selling the Prius since 1998. At best, hybrids reduce the CO2 produces somewhat. But many hybrids are designed for pure compliance, not saving CO2 in real world usage.

But in any case, we don't need to reduce the CO2 produced by cars, we need to eliminate it entirely.

Society needs to get CO2-neutral urgently, and cars are actually the low hanging fruit as perfectly nice electric cars are already being sold. In contrast, we have very little ideas what to do about flying for example, except use precious bio or synthetic fuels.

While it is still hard sometimes to just accept that we are here and we will die and thats it, religion has surprisingly nothing to say in this regard which would help me.

From a pure study perspective, cultural enlightnment or whatever you wanna call it, of course. When i went on holiday before covid struc, i did read up on local culture and their believes.

There are believes i personally like as they sound funny/nice while i still will not do them. Like believing in a toilet god :)

I personally think it will make dying easier with my current nihlist mindset than a religious one.

Hence the root cause of all human-caused problems: what is locally, short-term beneficial for an individual is often long-term detrimental to the group, and long-term success of an individual depends on long-term success of the group.

I.e. we're too competitive, not cooperative enough, and can hardly coordinate at scale. Our best coordination mechanism we've ever came up with is the market economy, which is essentially taking the survival instinct of individuals and building a distributed coercion system with it. Sure, it works, but wouldn't it be nicer if we could just talk our way into working together on shared goals, instead of using money and threats of starvation?
Never had this myself for network, but I can imagine if the wires are close enough together and the light switch sparks enough (or draws enough power) it could happen. Actually this is our 'standard' way of intentionally messing up serial or USB communication: place wire next to the serial line, then try to generate as much transients as possible to induce errors in the bit stream. Still doesn't always work.

I found the title a little bit misleading, especially given that quantum physics looks at time differently these days it seems .. with the Wheeler-DeWitt equation for the wave functional of the universe not featuring time .. and further talk that space and time themselves are born of the more fundamental process of entanglement.

.. but it "just" ended up describing the regular Minkowski space-time.
Yes, there are. Tesla just announced building a recycling facility. In Germany, there are also active recycling companies. Old batteries have valuable resources, so there is a large incentive of recycling - as soon as large scale supply of dead batteries is available, large scale recycling will be done. But most batteries in current electric cars will live for quite some time before they need recycling.

I'd say that does illustrate why I chose to just get proficient in Vim though. There are enough of these kinds of scenarios where having it available is very useful. But if you don't know Vim, you wouldn't bother learning it for just them.

For example, I couldn't imagine using a browser without Vim keybindings anymore. I wouldn't have learned how to use any kind of shortcut/keyboard-only extension, but since I already used Vim it was a no-brainer.

It's a lot of little benefits here and there, and I think taking a bit of time to get comfortable with it would even benefit no-programmers who do a lot of text editing. Plus geek cred ;).
