> In which case, minimum wages protect lower-paid workers at the expense of higher-paid workers. Which is fine in of itself.

Um, no, actually the complete opposite. Minimum wage protects the workers who are able to get the job at the minimum wage, at the expense of those even lower-paid -- the ones who would've been employed if the wage had been less (and now are not employed).
> it can be not HPPD but underlying psychosis or schizophrenia that has been activated by the drug

This is crucial part - tons of folks are a mess inside, and either it will never manifest fully (but they won't be perfectly normal balanced happy human beings either, just some grey zone), or it will with some shock - be it car crash, heavy alcohol use, tough breakup, death in close family or psychedelics for example.

My first GF's father had permanent paranoid schizophrenia triggered just by episode of heavy drinking during mandatory military service. Fucked up for rest of his life, on heavy medications.

Its not as rare in the population as we would like to think, still carries a heavy stigma with it so folks don't talk about it unless they have to.

You don't sell cheese on YouTube, though. Why should private commercial interests be able to censure free speech around the globe?

What I hate about Anki is lack of a "never ever show this card to me again" button. I could make great use of it when I try to expand my vocabulary and it teaches me basic level words when I only want advanced+ level. This is what stops me from using it.

I would also love to be able to set a custom repetition algorithm and to import cards from a directory of Markdown files.

Did you mean [n/2; n]?
But on top of that I think we have to assume that the salary envelope has some elasticity.

I suspect but cannot prove; a lot of elasticity. Those graphs showing productivity and wages decoupling; all that wealth is going somewhere. It's going to rich people. As you suggest, we could "just" (ha!) change where it goes; instead of to rich people, to workers.

It seems like Google punishing you for taking actions to increase your privacy, which not-so-coincidentally reduces the data they're able to hoover up from you.
Something I always thought would be beneficial is keeping apps in user space that don't implicitly require elevated permissions. This is something that has always bugged me about Linux, other unix like OSs and Windows. You shouldn't need root or administrator access to install apps that don't need it. Plus apps should be containerized by default. Granted there are in roads being made in Linux with things like AppImage and Flatpak but most current package systems still require root to install software without jumping through hoops. While this isn't too much of an issue with vetted apps distributed through official repositories, 3rd party packages pose serious security and stability issues in Linux. And Windows needs administrator access for seemingly everything. I shouldn't have to give up control of my OS to install something like a game.
I'm not talking about you personally, obviously I don't know or care what you do or who you are (although if you suddenly came up with a way to make $6 million, perhaps I’d take an interest). I'm merely making a correct observation about a phenomenon of which you are a small part.

It is of course even more ludicrous to expect anonymity when you have solved the lottery in states that do not permit anonymous winners.

> It is unacceptable to try to track someone down about money through their parents.

As a blanket statement, that's nonsense. Stalking someone's parents to collect an unpaid medical would certainly be unacceptable. A polite DM or e-mail requesting an interview with someone who has apparently come up with a foolproof method to generate millions of dollars is entirely reasonable.
Please consider answering this. Are those interesting communities on IRC or the web based non searchable community sites like discord. ?
I use it frequently.

In particular, institutional email is accessible to the company. I am conservative in my emails assuming that everyone sees the message. Some of us have PGP keys and feel better to gossip :)

I use it for various other tasks too (exchanging API tokens, passwords, emailing myself documents, etc ).
If your manager gives importance to this, just send a hundred emails to yourself at the end of the month to pad your numbers.

Similarly, you can activate your webcam with a black tape on it, add/remove some spaces at the end of lines on shared documents…

Not in 1971 when the lawsuit was filed. Now they use picture-based tests because those are supposedly less dependent on learned knowledge. (Though I find that many Raven's progressive matrices-type questions are a lot easier if you know about symmetry groups and XOR.)
I always get a bit cranky about the LoC thing.

I’d rather have an employee that spent three days, optimizing a single 100 LoC method, than one that churned out 2,000 LoC that does the same thing, in two days, that will need to be maintained, forevermore.
That's certainly not considered absolute fact. There is a lot of data showing increases in minimum wage without associated increase in unemployment.

All of those with the distributed nature of bittorrent, and automatically updated content, is available with hypercore: basically a site is identified is identified by a public key, all modifications are stored in an append-only log and distributed among all those who subscribe to the particular site, p2p-style. Check out beaker (https://beakerbrowser.com/) to see what is possible.
Fair point. You could have "locked down" tools for standard users and "I can install my PGP smartcard extension" tools for power users. I guess in this case it was unfortunate that Thunderbird happened to be used by both the standard and the power users.

To me it doesn't seem fair use and there is a monetary incentive for the youtuber to use the term Grana Padano to have more views and/or get paid more by Youtube for views.

But the whole point of a trademark is to reference the thing that is trademarked.

As long as it is clear that he's not affiliated with them then I think it is fair. If he said unofficial guide to make Grana Padano. Or my recipe that's better than Grana Padano then it would be fine.

Many good reasons are already mentioned, but I also think a big one is because dang is here full time. This is job and he does it well.

Almost all other internet communities have mods that just do it on a volunteer basis. If those communities are big enough to be vibrant, that also means that a couple volunteer mods can't cut it. Luckily YC has the budget for keeping dang around. I would bet this place would be like most other poorly moderated communities without him.

I've moved all of my side project dev to a M1-based mini with 16GB. It's still lacking docker+virtualisation support, which is a bit of a headache, but I'm confident that'll be resolved soon. Other than that, everything I need either has been ported or runs great in Rosetta. I'm blown away by how responsive it is. I often have three JetBrains IDEs, XCode, java, and a node server for the React frontend all running at once, and it just flys. Not only do things build in what feels like half the time, I have yet to notice a heavy build slow down everything else, which happens all the time on my Intel MacBook Pro.

Edit to add one downside I forgot to mention: It's been a long time since I used a non-portable mac. One annoyance of the mini is that I feel like I'm being asked for my password every 6 seconds, which is much less of an annoyance on a portable because you have the touch sensor.
I had no idea that Grana Padano was a PDO.

I can't help but feel that going around cease and desisting people that are passionately pursuing hobbies is a really bad idea.

It reminds me of when the word Champagne was taken to court. The court ruled that the word could only be used by wine makers in the given region. What this resulted in was not I believe good for the Champagne region, despite the intent.

The mind share for that word went down. Instead we found ourselves hearing people asking for Prosecco or bubbly. Champagne might now be able to assert that only the'quality' product from their region has the name, but I suspect it's just caused the companies that produce wine to make sure that they own the trademark, and push their brand, not the term champagne. Regardless of whether it's from that region.

On the flip side there are several products in Europe (and potentially elsewhere) that use the term Aussie or Australian, and they're not actually Australian businesses[1]. Both were originally American businesses.

So I get the need for some level of origin protection. Both of the Australian products imply something that isn't accurate, either manufacturing or ingredients.

Absolutely, they've produced something fairly consistent making it easy for bots, yet by design made it harder for humans to see (small, image noise), and solve (10 consecutive, short time limit, no user feedback).

I recognize that by looking at just the screengrab it's an extremely simple concept to solve, it's just that at every implementation turn they made the worst choices, and it just infuriates me.

That is hard to measure. However, it is fairly easy to measure another likely drawback of minimum wage: acting as an anchor (or even an opposite magnet) on salary growth.

Leadership is often as much if not more about influence than authority. As a manager, while part of my job is managing "down" (people I have formal reporting-line authority over), it's equally if not more important to manage sideways (peers, stakeholders in other orgs) and upward (my own managers).

With enough free trade agreements without statues for worker protections, you can forget unionization to a large degree.

And the mechanism to break them are easily available. Just insert special interests for local conditions or identity politics like race or gender and the union is as good as busted, you don't need to do much. Unions need unity and that won't stand for 10 minutes in todays world. Current civil liberty movements were often driven apart by this.

You still need to be competitive because someone needs to be able to pay the minimum wage. If there is a discrepancy in wealth between countries, you need either taxes or let the worker class fall down to some international level for cheapest labor.

That's why I tried to use it more as a methaphor. Because the whole point of explicit VLIW (EPIC was what Itanium folks called it) was to save that scheduling HW. But nowadays that piece of HW is relatively minor part. So it's no longer worth to save it in a general purpose CPU. As this thread is about general purpose CPU's for direct consumer use (not a controller in hard drive or whatnot, but a full fledged CPU you run arbitrary programs in) we're talking about chips like Itanium when it comes to VLIW.

I do not disagree that VLIW is a great for things like DSP where the power consumption is of the essence. One can get ridiculously high perf/watt by going explicit VLIW. I just don't see any way we'd see that approach in general purpose CPU's again.

GPU's do not need to reorder instructions to hide memory latency. It just happens on a different level. While a single threadgroup (as in that single instruction pointer that controls the SIMD unit) will not get reordered at all, one has multiple threadgroups in flight. So if one group stalls at a memory load the unit will just schedule a different threadgroup. Because one generally has tons of them in flight. It's all about throughput. One could think of this as an in order CPU (from viewpoint of a single thread) but with ridiculous amounts of hyperthreading (one thread stalls, we can pick an instruction from another thread but never one from the stalled thread).
Yup, exactly. My thoughts on CAPTCHAs expressed well by https://xkcd.com/1897/ https://xkcd.com/2228/.
I feel like the worst has to be Bastardstown, Ireland.

The main spoken language in Ireland is English and the construction of the name strongly implies it was not an etymological accident.
As another poster pointed out, elsewhere "postal code" is usually used. The format differs. In some places it might be 4121, somewhere else it might be SW1A 1AA. In the ROI, there are no post codes.
maybe the algorithm wants to detect if you are as slow as a human would be solving those and you failed that ;D
Thanks for sharing I might actually start to implement those techniques for further learning.
As long as the recipe isn't copyrighted, or obtained while under an NDA, I don't see the problem. The trademark is not being used to sell cheese. If we follow your style of reasoning strictly, it would also be forbidden to make videos or documentaries like "How Coca Cola became a success in the Soviet Union" or "Animals tortured in <cosmetics brand, e.g. Channel> test lab" (although for the latter case, there would obviously be a need to substantiate the claim).
That is the question after all. Why the activity/concept described by the word is considered crossing moral boundary. Moral boundary of who?

You mean those studies about Seattle airport employment zone and such small scale examples of raising the minimum wage? I don't think it applies in general, or it would be a big mistake to think that you could replicate that widely.

But maybe I'm mistaken. Maybe we don't send work offshore to lower cost countries to take advantage of wages lower than ours.
> It seems PDO allows censure of media as well.

That is, assuming this recourse was (legally) valid in the first place. I'm not sure of that.

I have no more than a laymen's understanding of these rules, but I at least expect that they apply to commercial entities (businesses) and not private individuals. This is an important distinction, which these days is often ignored/overlooked by many. Probably not in the least become so many people actually run (freelance) businesses as individuals, more often than not bordering on illegality, if not actually (unenforced) illegally. Much of that depends on national/local laws though.

Maybe the plaintiff does see it as YouTube being a business, or the person making these videos doing this professionally (if there's any money being made from the videos, it sort of is), but neither of those two business are (professionally) producing the protected product in question (let alone commercially sell it).

If the PDO regulations actually allow/warrant this action, then I'd argue that this goes way beyond the original intent and mandate of this PDO doctrine. Sadly, it would not be a first for an idea being (politically) adopted and then substantially changed/extended before being implemented into actual law/regulation. But with the (at best questionable) culture of lobbying going around in Brussels, that can hardly come as a surprise.

Maybe the lawmakers who voted in favor of this doctrine should be asked if this is what they actually voted for. It might just annoy them, being "harassed" (if not insulted) with such "unimportant incidents", but that might be just what is needed here. If this is unforeseen/unintended (ab)use of these regulations, it is most likely to stop
when lawmakers get annoyed/pissed off and demand some kind of public statement, saying that this is not what is supposed to happen under this doctrine.

I think you just learend to pay attention to nuance in color and color combinations. I had similiar experience without psychedelics after taking a course on color and color composition by a graphic artist. The course was a combination of traditional color and composition theory with art therapy.

My perception was never the same after, i learned to find joy in stopping for a moment and contemplating the things i see. Even if it is a trashcan with peeling layers of fading paint.
I'm not saying the implementation is half-baked (although, it does feel much less mature than Enigmail). I'm saying that the broken, imported, duplicate keychain is half-baked because it failed to import cleanly due to a lack of features. Ultimately, I had to give up on that and start from scratch with my backed up key (where the primary isn't detached).

I initially tried to fix this by messing with my GPG keychain, because my underlying assumption was that they shared keychains. Imagine my shock when I realised my assumption was wrong! Fortunately I didn't lose anything important. Either way, having to maintain separate keychains is already enough of a deal-breaker for me... Maybe it will improve over time. I guess I'll have to wait and see, as I didn't back up my TB68 profile, so I can't downgrade :(
What you are calling "living in fear" is a temporary circumstance that can prevent permanent consequence. Even if that consequence isn't guaranteed, it's worth the sacrifice to avoid it.
I just got one "mark everything that shows bikes" with pictures of cyclists, motorbikes and cars. The translation used the norwegian word "sykler" which to me is the human powered one. But it looked like it wanted me to also select motorized ones as well. That's something that's lost in the translation.

Testing some more here https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api2/demo I also got "mark all fire hydrants". I've never seen one in real life, only those red in American cartoons. I got "parking meters", but none of them looked like they do in my country (and I've never heard anyone call them that word they used for translation). I got mark "mountains", but to quote Dundee: You call that a mountain?

This is how we have protected products here in Europe - hundreds of cheeses, salamis, balsamico di modena, well basically anything with any history.

It doesn't prevent copies, ie french/non local Swiss Gruyere, but its clear when you're buying it (AOP sign in the case of Gruyere).

I don't see a problem with it - you have variety of selection, competition is not stiffled, but if you want traditional original one, you can navigate the market without being an expert on every item.
