I said "Vastly superior for providing CAS in uncontested airspace against enemies that struggle to acquire MANPADS", which I thought implied "enemies that have MANPADS in limited quantities". Yes, the A-10 does "fine" in that situation.

It does not do anything approaching "fine" against modern air-defense emplacements. Or against air-to-air missiles, whether radar guided or infrared. (those engine-hiding undulations won't do much against an all-aspect missile from the front)

And while accepting 1:1 losses against a peer state in a war might be the reality, I'm pretty sure the A-10 wouldn't manage such a record in hostile airspace. (That's if you count "tanks" or "infantry" on the opposite side of the ledger, of course - purely air to air the A-10 would lose to the average 3rd gen fighter as far as I'm aware)
The parent did not comment on the legality of the action but on whether the Government could execute on that action “without consequences or repercussions”. Arguing about the legality is a straw man argument, when the discussion is about what actions the Government can get away with (regardless of legality).

For LG monitors, the business version, when available, is identical hardware but with a longer warranty, often for about the same price. But, you can't trust their listed specs if they differ from the consumer model.

For example, the 34BK95U-W is identical to the 34WK95U-W except for the longer warranty. However, LG's website claimed the B varraint supported a 75hz refresh rate when I got it, but it only supports 60hz, same as the consumer model.

Similarly, LG's 43MU79-B only supports 7.5W of power output on the USB-C port despite https://www.lg.com/us/business/desktop-monitors/lg-43MU79-B still claiming it supports "60W PD". In reality, it's identical to the 43UD79-B. (I notified them of this over a year ago, but they don't seem to care enough to correct it.)

Shit like that makes me want to avoid LG entirely.

The strikes in question were in June to August 2016. In Idlib. The US government insists there were no US airstrikes in Idlib during that time period, which was the key to their argument for the case's dismissal. The case was dismissed but the DOJ also put forward some awful argument which the judge rightly called out for being ridiculous.
I’m amused by the contrary positions a lot of folks seem to be taking here. Either people agree with the author, and think personal goal setting and measurement helps actually accomplish tasks, or people are astonished that someone would live so structurally. On both sides it seems like there’s bewilderment at the other - what kind of monster would live like this?

It reminds me how different people are, and how much we need empathy even with something like how people set personal goals.
The main developer of TinyGo (a version of Go for embedded devices) added support for the PineTime a while back:

There's a reason why passenger vehicles don't come equipped with roll cages, 5 point harnesses, and why there's no law mandating that motorists and their passengers wear crash helmets.

Simply put, a 3 point restraint that's much easier to put on provides a decent amount of protection in the event of a crash. On the other hand, if one is engaged in motor sports, racing, etc., then the other safety measures are necessary. Just like one would use additional safety measures when working in a healthcare setting.

I too wonder if mental health issues are symptoms of larger problems in our society, but I am hopeful that we can figure out the mechanisms and adapt. It's difficult to study complex systems, but I have some 'faith' that we can build the tools necessary.

Some mechanisms that seem obvious to me are overpopulation and laws restricting personal freedom (e.g. laws on sexuality or laws on drug use). The 1 child policy is an example of a (failed?) attempt at addressing the 1st issue.
There are generally accepted rules about what constitutes the differences between extrajudicial assassination by the state ("it's not illegal if the president does it"), judiciary-based civilian execution ("capital punishment"), wartime combat that results in death, and plain ol' cold blooded murder between parties not state-sanctioned in any way.

I personally don't distinguish much between these (I'm basically in agreement with Einstein's stated views on the matter) but to pretend that our global human society doesn't believe in these distinctions is somewhat silly.

The US president can mass murder hundreds of children (Obama did just this) and not be seen as a criminal, even by that group, provided it falls into the correct category listed above.

> To be fair, that was before he ordered the execution of an American citizen without trial.

He'd became president January 20 and was awarded the prize on October 9 - he hadn't really had time to do anything meaningful for international relations.

The only way to interpret the prize was as a rebuke on former president George Bush for gleefully upping the ante from a localised tragedy in America into annihilating two countries, countless deaths and destabilising half a continent. It was a passive aggressive "well we can't stop you America, but we saw what you did".

There was a lot more to those invasions history-wise, but the basic message was clear.

Because it isn't a "harp". It isn't just a niggling little thing, and it isn't "dismissal" to put something into perspective.

The world's economies have thrown tens of trillions of dollars into the response to Covid (not to mention the incalculable follow-on costs in terms of mental health, missed diagnoses and the like), and nary a thought was given to what the side-effects of that response might be, or whether those resources might have been better spent elsewhere. We just did it, and it turns out that the disease will have an impact on par with something else that we spend drastically less money on in any given year.

If you literally cannot fathom why a cost/benefit calculation might be appropriate here, you have lost perspective, and the OP's point is well-taken.

That is a fair criticism of this article.

Anecdotally, I recently discussed phone addiction with a youngish tenured professor friend in the psych department at a major university. Two things stood out for me:

1. My academic friend really had a limited understanding of the success of machine learning in driving engagement online. How algorithms can and will enhance whatever mechanism they discover to drive engagement numbers. And how our brains are not wired to compete against them.

2. He took exception to the word addiction in the context of phones. He felt a phone could not drive addiction in the same way as a substance.

My opinion is that our academic research is significantly behind due to the sheer speed and exponential growth of phone/app usage.

I don’t think it will work with trinary numbers though, as in his design “unknown” is treated as “zero”.

So if there is an adder which outputs “0”, there is bo way to tell if the computation was done and result was zero, or if it is still in progress.

Which is what you get from computers? The only bad thing about them is the low social status associated with it. There is some weird bias in society that you are a lesser human somehow if you spend a lot of time in front of computers instead of doing more "rich" things like reading books. At least for me all anxiety related to spending a lot of time with computers disappeared once I stopped caring about what others think, I don't think there is anything inherently bad with it other than that.

The issue raised from the article and this overall discussion isn't necessarily concerned with one individual case, it is about what processes should be followed to make such a determination regardless of who that individual is.

> You should be empowered to make these decisions yourself

Very few tech leads or devs are empowered enough to tell upper management they aren't going to work on the tasks assigned to them and will instead work on fixing a technical debt issue. And I can relate to this, because if I asked a dev on my team to work on building out a new report a user asked for and they respond they're going to fix technical debt instead, I wouldn't be happy.

Also we already know how this ad hoc approach to technical debt works in most organizations. You get 0% to work on technical debt.
The direct lift system of the Harrier is simple but not robust. Turbines hate ingesting hot gas, and a Harrier in a descending hover is descending straight into its own hot exhaust. This can and did cause "pop stalls" which led to an abrupt loss of thrust just when you want consistent thrust, near the ground in a hover.

The LiftFan of the F-35B serves to shield the front intakes of the engine from ingesting hot gas, plus there is an auxiliary air inlet on the top of the plane that opens up and allows cold air from above to get sucked straight into the front face of the engine.

The 3 Bearing Swivel Nozzle (main engine nozzle pivoting down and somewhat steerable) combined with roll posts in the wings that can give translational thrust/roll control, and a Variable Aperture Vane Box Nozzle (VAVBN) under the lift fan all combine to give high control authority in the hover, and the flight control system has special modes to make controlling the F-35B simpler. Harriers required constant adjustment in the hover to keep from losing control. In the F-35B, once the altitude and attitude in the hover are set, the jet will maintain that as long as there's fuel remaining, without corrective pilot inputs required.

We do ourselves a disservice to pretend that every intervention has been a massive failure or worse. It abdicates the specific responsibility of those waging specific wars and invites us to ignore international tragedy.

That only would seem to follow if the argument was that we couldn't get him by a drone strike, which obviously is not the argument, as drone strikes don't really do a good job of hauling people before a court.

>It would be hard to imagine the Government getting away with bombing downtown San Francisco without any consequences.

I didn't say "downtown San Francisco", I said "your home." How would you prove that blew up your home? If you can't prove it, then they got away with it. My point is that when we open up the definition of "can" in this headline to mean "things the government can do and get away with", then it becomes meaningless if it's not bounded by the legality of those things. There are a boundless number of things, including assassinations, framings, etc etc, that the government "can" do and get away with.

So the only definition of "can" worth discussing, since the headline is intentionally vague about what "can" means, is whether or not it is legal to do the things described.

Be that as it may, I'm not sure we want to be dependent on Facebook to regulate the businesses and political organizations that advertise on its platforms.
