i "think" i am safe. Recently a prominent lawyer was assassinated in broad daylight, that has gotten me scared. other than that this place is actually safer for non combatants than rest of the subcontinent and i can say that with authority. the governments otoh are not safe for people.

from what i have observed and from facts, at least on the indian occupied side, india spend like millions to convince entire generations about a local hero who happened to be pro india.

this was a couple years ago.

yeah so its not like people are not protesting, we just don't see a point in the conventional protests. kashmir has been fighting foreign invaders for over 500 years so its kinda in the system, to oppose.

as a kashmiri, i see no alternative other than complete independence. there is no other way forward, will that take 20 years or 500. Doesn't matter

personally i think all three of these nations have to let go of kashmir, not because of some altruistic reason but because of CPEC. india and pakistan "need" to pass through kashmir to access it. china cannot afford jeopardizing their project because of indo-pak squabbles. for them business is king and the sooner things settle down, the easier.

for us kashmiris, we could practically live off of port fees for all the goods passing through our borders so yeah, i am hopeful
You don't use wording like that on accident. Being one word off from a white supremacist quote in a message sent to white supremacists is incredibly unlikely to be accidental.

That is expensive as fuck compared to land around me. I live near a town of 1200, you can easily get cleared land for $1500 or less per acre. Prime land here will be worth more, but mostly because it has a higher value as a prospect for non-farming expansion and housing.
Not really. Most interchangeable lens cameras do not have a purely electronic shutter, it's a very new feature.

Those that do, do not have it as the default mode. There is also the electronic first curtain shutter, but that is way closer to a mechanical shutter than to an electronic shutter.

Well, "business as usual" has led working class (and middle class) america to wage stagnation, increasingly worse jobs, de-industrialization, decline of small towns, meth/heroin rise, and such, plus wars mainly using poor rural people as fodder, and other such niceties.

Plus coastal elites (including non-elites who still identify as hollier-than the plebs in the fly-over country) sneering at them.

The glorious march of the stock market, or the glorious technological future, only meant being worse of (job prospects, housing costs, healthcare costs, education costs, etc.) for them. Even openly calling out a 40% who voted another candidate "deplorables".

So from this European's standapoint, it makes sense for these people to consider more of the status quo to mean "return to the dark ages".
You can be sure that once all the fossil fuels are gone, and society has collapsed beyond the point of return, the remaining humans will be mining our dumps for useful items. Wars will be fought over these scraps.

So, totally disinterested question, can you name those companies paying well for Elixir in Europe? :)

Otherwise I agree with a good part of your post. For CRUD work I feel way more productive with PHP/Symfony than with Elixir/Phoenix, especially for outputting HTML. Part of it is the DX with the templating and type hinting but also the unbeatable amount of libraries and manpower behind the language and framework.

Otherwise the plugin for Jetbrain's IDEs works OK for me (but again it can't beat the Symfony plugin with PHPStorm features).

I use Alpine as my daily driver on desktops, and in production on bare metal servers (and in production VMs). musl libc is much easier to debug and understand, which pays off in spades regardless of compatibility with broken (i.e. non-portable) programs. The system is exceptionally stable and reliable, which I care about very much. It's also simple, in that it does everything I ask it to, and nothing I don't ask it to. I can fit the entire system in my head.

I use Vim as my editor, and yes, programmers who value bloated, un-Unixy tools like VSCode will not find the system accomodating.

That’s where you get into interesting territory. It’s not a wild suggestion, is it?
Private COVID tests.

There’s an upper limit to testing capacity, and optimistically the government allocates that capacity in the way it thinks it will do the most good.

They’re worried about processing tests from care homes, healthcare workers, suspected positive patients, outbreaks, etc... not old people that want to go to Florida for vacation.

But that doesn’t preclude finding a private company that will test you, but the government isn’t going to pay for non-medically-necessary medical treatment and testing from a private company.
Agree.

They’re not violating copyright via Twitter. They should have a voice via Twitter, no matter the accusation.

Do accused murderers [as opposed to convicted] get their Twitter suspended?

This is ridiculous.
Those linked articles from the USDA talk about vertical farming for very niche products: fresh greens mostly and possibly some spices. Vertical farming will not be possible to supply the protein, starch, or oil needs of the world. Only large scale farming (think US Midwest) can provide at this scale. People simply underestimate how many acres of farmland there are or don't appreciate the scale and efficiency of modern farming.

That is not completely true. In EU more than 40% small farmers consumed more than half their produce.

Most countries that I know of (even the ones with famously socialised health care) won't actually give you a certificate with the info you need for travel, like passport number and ID verification, for free even if general public testing is free.
Emacs is available on Windows so just install it and then clone the Spacemacs GitHub repository to C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Roaming\ and rename it to .emacs.d\ As i remember, though, i think it was slower than on Linux, but might be something else was going on with my setup back then.

I've also tried running it from WSL. Running it in cli mode was sufficient for me, but i was also able to use GUI mode by installing an X Server (VcXsrv i think) on Windows and making WSL work with that. It makes sense to use it from WSL, if you do your development work there as well. Also, it was before WSL 2, so i don't know if anything's changed now.

> if he tried to sell a large number those shares, they'd plummet in value as he was selling them

I think this is a good starting point to understanding the "real" value of Bezos' and Musk's fortunes, but I'm not sure it would play out like you say. As you pointed out, the valuations of both of their companies are held up by widely held beliefs about the men. A lot of Tesla's value comes from Elon Musk, super-genius-capitalist, being at the helm.

So, if the stock value comes from trusting the humans, it seems possible that Musk or Bezos could sell a large chunk of stock with the right explanation. Like, if Jeff Bezos said he was selling $30bn of stock to contribute to charity right now so he could get critics off his back and concentrate on Amazon...would the price go down? I don't see it.
Well, in Texas I've seen some ranches that are several miles in one dimension (one was called "The eight mile ranch").

It is likely not up to Twitter but rather DMCA related.
On desktop, we support KDE, GNOME and Xfce, which are the big ones, but yes, we could use more work there.

To be frank, Mac is not a model I would want to follow.

Being confrontational doesn't mean being violent. Non-violent ways to be confrontational can include refusing to disperse, not staying within the previously agreed spaces (if any), occupying public space, harassing the police, etc. And the sheer mass of protesters can be already intimidating and cause a police reaction if things are not extremely well managed.

Btw, I was looking for large right-wing rallies in the US, and couldn't find any. The "unite the right" rally seems to have gathered a few hundred people in all. Compare with the largest BLM rally in Washington DC, 200 thousand people. How do you compare these two (even if the participants to the first are nazi-like nutters and those of the other are normal left-wing citizens)?

And the "unite the right" are the nutters. Where are the large (tens of thousands of participants) rallies of the moderate right? Like the "keep taxes low" rally and the "no medicare" rally?
On what planet does stock appreciation demonstrate a sustainable business model?

Trump leaving Twitter (or rather, having the microphone yanked out of his tiny hands) is going to impact the engagement that the platform facilitates. It remains to be seen what that impact will be, but I don't see how it can be positive.

Section 230 has been criticized from both sides of the aisle -- including by the President-Elect [0]. Without that protection, Twitter would almost certainly have to spend more on moderation, or worse yet, cull the flock of troll and bot accounts and take a MAU hit.

Oh, and BTW -- it's a $36B market cap this week.

Cash is only private if you never put it in a bank.

But if the reason for taking the payment is legitimate you're going to have no more problems with Bitcoin than you will with cash in this regard.

If your reason for taking the payment is illegal then I agree, Bitcoin puts you at some greater risk. But if that's you're point then perhaps you should be clearer. Bitcoin can be dangerous to use for criminals because it's more traceable. If your use is legal, it's no more or less dangerous than cash.
I know you’re being cheeky. But honestly no. People and entities should be allowed opinions no matter how we disagree, so long as it’s not outright violent or otherwise violating local laws.

They say they controlled for BMI, but if the dependence on BMI is nonlinear (i.e. higher BMI reinforces it's own destructive effect on testosterone) then there will still be a residual effect after that control. I think this effect is entirely due to BMI.

Silver Lake and Elliot have both wanted Dorsey gone from the moment they took big positions in TWTR. They now have the board seats to pull it off. After the disastrous past week for the stock, I can't see any other shareholders wanting to keep him on.

When you're dividing your time as CEO between two companies, the presumption is always going to be against you. Unless he manages to deliver some truly astounding quarterly numbers in the immediate near-term, I'd be pretty shocked if Dorsey isn't canned by the end of the year.

So blame the lawmakers? Why vilify farmers for taking advantage of a tax code they didn't write? Every other industry does this, so why wouldn't people in agriculture?
An important philosophy to adopt as a user of Alpine is to take responsibility for the software you want to use on it. If you need a particular window manager or desktop environment, take responsibility for packaging it and making it available. The value of Alpine has little to do with package availability, and it's easy enough to package up anything you need yourself.
there's a few gradations of difference between Trump voters and neo-Nazis...

There's another issue, which constantly bothered me back when "Jeff Bezos is richer than Bill Gates" was a big news item.

These comparisons never take the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation into account. Bill Gates put about half his money into a financial structure with favorable tax treatment. But it's still his money that he controls. There's no reason to ignore it if you're trying to assess how wealthy he is.

Well you answered your own question. You become by doing. If you don't train muscles they don't grow. If you're sedentary, and obese, knock on effect from doing that.

Just think about it this way. If you got dropped off to live in the wilderness of Alaska. And I came back to visit you in a year. Do you think you would be more masculine.
I bet so. All kinds of changes would need to be made by you and your body just to survive. From fitness level, to body fat percentage, and so on.
good point. It's almost like mechanical turk but for moderation.

I don't think drunken bar fights was ever socially acceptable anywhere but the lowest of social strata. I'd blame lifestyle changes and BPA far before I thought exercising normal "gentlemanly" restraint caused T to dip. Also, your theory doesn't explain the anomaly of all the large muscular men who you can tell by physical appearance have high T and who are very kind and not aggressive. Bar fights have a lot more to do with environmental factors that influence behavior, like how they were raised, the same socioeconomic factors that contribute to violent crime, etc.

vivaldi browser has it.

I believe the idea was new tabs open / append on right. So, just satisfy major usecase.

Say you come to hacker news and open top five links in a new tab, after visiting all 5 websites, you wouldn't want to close the homepage and the previous 4 websites. You usually want to close just the 5 websites you opened and not the hacker news page. So, user just have to right click on hackernews tab and choose "close tabs to the right".

I also want 'close tabs to the left' it would be useful, when you open 20 links and read through 15 of the links, you don't want those websites you visited to hog you memory, here "close tabs to the left" would be helpful.
I find this interesting. As someone with over 20 YOE, I've always eschewed the "2-page" resume guidelines. My full resume ends up being 4-5 pages, even with rigorous attention to only a 1 sentence description of each role, avoiding duplication of facts, and keeping and bullet points in the form of "Did X, resulting in Y".

I've always wondered if a longer format helps me more with automated resume scoring. Also, does LinkedIn come into play here? I feel like when I show up to an interview, there's a 50/50 chance they're holding my resume vs. a printout of my LinkedIn profile.

It sounds like you're assuming evolutionary pressure as a mechanism of change, is that correct?

Have you considered that the body may produce different hormone levels as a result of our mental state?

For example, when startled, the body produces a hormone called adrenaline. We know with certainty that mental state is responsible for certain types of hormone production.

I honestly do not know if there might be a link between testosterone production specifically and mental state, but I took this to be the question that the above poster was asking.

> You might say, no, Musk and Bezos are worth 50% (or ~60 billion) more. On paper yes, but that's not a great metric. When I think of wealth, I think of what you can reasonably acquire.

Exactly. Stock wealth isn't real money because it isn't actionable. You can't sell all of it without crashing. All personal wealth should be measured by how much liquid cash you could get for it in a short term sale.

That's also the amount you could theoretically donate towards, for example, averting a short-term humanity disaster. If you needed $100 billion in hard cash to pay for a bunch of things to avert an asteroid or nasty virus, Elon Musk wouldn't be able to provide that sum even if he wanted to.
You know when you're marching on the Capitol and you've left your phone at home so the Feds don't know it's you and you nick Pelosi's laptop then need to SCP (or rsync over SSH seeing as SCP is getting binned) all the files back to your server?

Nah, me either. Especially as I'm in England. Please don't send the black helicopters.

> Without going back and checking, wasn't PF a fork of the open core of D&D/3.5e?

Yes, this is why it was often referred to (at the time at least) as 3.75. Mechanically, if you knew 3/3.5 you could almost jump in without looking at any rules in Pathfinder. It did change things around spells and classes (having its own being the biggest issue more than changes to the standard/common ones with 3/3.5).
That wasn't rude. It was direct.
