As always for any polarizing topic in India on which the current ruling party has strong opinions, it's better to disregard Indian media, since they always carry a biased, pro government narrative.
That lovely linguistic sleight of hand means that people called a region bharat. By the criteria how come Sri Lanka is not included? Or how do you reconcile the 7 sisters being part of that? For that matter the word Europe exists - are you arguing that states should act like nations a la the EU?
Not entirely untrue. I've billed 50% of a project's hours as "still waiting for system access."

Granted, that was a pathologically bad customer, but it happens.

The ironic thing is the question you usually get from them is "Do you have access yet?"

It's your system and your company! How do you not know the answer to that question?!
You asked for sources for Modi bhakats wishing death upon Sikhs in 1984 style. You literally asked Who is wishing Sikh Killings! I provided the sources. Only 6. There are millions of tweets & videos, where BJP RSS Hindu are saying We Miss Mother Indira.

I'm adopting Toni "The friend" from now on. It has a good ring to it.

We certainly didn't make things easy by calling our podcast "Another Podcast" and yes I agree with you - although audio has been around for a long time, the podcast space still has a lot of maturing to do, and on many fronts.

Thanks for tuning in (is that what people say these days? I don't know anymore) - it's appreciated.
No idea, but I'd advise you to try it.
They stoke communal sentiments, pit Hindus vs Muslims, make it seem like the minorities are out to destroy the Hindus, and a vast majority of the population just laps it up.

They have a giant misinformation network, which has recruited everybody from bots to popular actors to popular sportspeople and they spread out misinformation in a highly organized manner. Very effective at spreading FUD which translates into votes come election time.

Even now, on Twitter and Reddit you'll find thousands of posts about how the protesting farmers are khalistani terrorists.

Goebbels would be proud of what the BJP have accomplished.
How did they verify that Joe Blow was actually supposed to have 231 shares instead of 219?

>which does not contain a logical inconsistency.

Are you sure we're reading the same page? Most things described as "logical fallacies" are informal anyway, and have nothing to do with "logic": they're not expressed in the form of a formal Quinean logical syllogism that maps out truth tables with elemental logical operators like AND, XAND, IFF etc.

The only work the word "logic" is doing here is not as a formal term but as a vague complement that approximately means something like "rational." And invoking that term, or witholding it is just a personal expression of whether you like something enough to award it a merit badge that has the word "logical" on it. It's just playing calvinball.

>The second part is claiming that an opponent’s lack of response to any or all of the arguments means the opponent is wrong.

This is just incoherent to me. Second part? The page isn't grouped into parts. I'm assuming you mean the second half of the sentence explaining the shotgun fallacy. But the second half of the sentence isn't expressing a second, isolated idea. The whole thing together describes a rhetorical strategy for expressing an argument that attempts to escape refutation. It's as real as any other informal fallacy. If it falls short of qualifying for your personal complement that it's "logical", well, either you're referring to formal logic or you're not, and if you're not, then this whole exercise in deeming it "logical" is just a game of calvinball that doesn't have anything to do with anything.

Possibly - but I doubt it will be proportional for the undesirable jobs. It would be a volatile transition period either way.

Drawbacks of P2P and a defense of Signal
Does the government, in fact, know how to do those things? How would we know if they did or didn't?

I notice that they spend oddly large amounts of money on anything for which we know what the cost roughly should be -- e.g. CDC web sites -- and don't seem to do so very quickly or very well. Should we assume that they're a lot more competent at things we know less about?

It'll be interesting to see if this goes the Larrabee route (a flat array of CPUs which share everything) or the traditional GPU route (multiple levels of shared resources).
It sounds like they needed a senior business systems analyst to map out the functional requirements specifications document.

Usually, though not always, this helps to give a road map for the organization to follow.

Bugs will arise of course, but usually, it becomes localized, and can be addressed individually.

But for large systems, with lots of moving parts and data integrations with other systems, then you normally need a good, near-air-tight specifications document.
No, they are & always wished death upon non Hindus. & Carried it too. Godhra, 1984, & many others.

No need to add sikhs in Quotes, those are Sikhs. Many of them are in jails. Do you want to be the judge & executioner on the spot? Any mob who damages or hurts, should be controlled, & then tried. But in India, if that mob is Hindu, then it never happens.
> And yet it turns out that gravity is not a force at all. Gravity is just the shape of space.

This is really a distraction from the discussion. Why is this semantical argument important to discuss? Although, if I were to answer it, "is" is not well-defined in physics. But "is" typically is understood to be "is modeled by". Yes, in general relativity, gravity is modeled by something different than what it is modeled by in Newtonian gravity, which is a force. General relativity didn't exist 300 years ago when gravity was difficult to accept. Newtonian gravity did. Models evolve but sometimes old models remain useful.

My entire point in this discussion was that we need new models to understand the complexity of modern society and human behavior. The old models aren't good enough. That's why I react somewhat negatively to complaining of conspiracy theories at an attempt to understand the complexity of the systems we've created and participate in.

This stuff is tough to understand and wrap one's head around. Even something as deductive, in a way, as Newtonian gravity and general relativity was met with great resistance, if not outright rejection. We shouldn't follow these patterns.
Gamestop publishes a list (https://news.gamestop.com/stock-information/institutional-ow...), with the large non-mutual-fund holders adding up to 74.86% of the company.
I’ve done a lot of work for multiple national governments on multiple projects. There are two facts that can be true at the same time:

- The government often grotesquely overpays for mediocre product delivered by vendors without holding them accountable in a meaningful way

- The government process drives up costs to an insane level independent of implementor good faith efforts and strongly selects for companies good at the process rather than execution

These are two different problems, and both of them manifest with any large contract. I would make the observation that it is easier to hide mediocre product and execution when you can hide behind a grotesquely inefficient and mediocre government process.

What transpired here should never happen. But I know why and how it happened.

Jim Cramer Exposes Illegal Hedge Fund Tactics (2014) [video]
With good reason. The free market is not effectively regulated against collusion in India. On the 'free' market, the middle men band together, fix prices, and the farmer ends up getting the short end of the stick. The mandis were originally established to prevent the farmers getting completely squeezed by scrupulous middle men.

While the car is running, certainly. But a 600WH starter battery (which is lead-acid and doesn't really like being run down) is no match for a 60,000WH lithium traction battery.

A typical four-camera 360° setup probably draws about 5-10 watts, more if it's performing motion-detection on the images. You'd be unwise to run that overnight on a typical starter battery, especially in winter. But it's a drop in the bucket for an EV.

(Personally I think this is an egregious amount of "vampire power" to waste if nothing's going on, but apparently a lot of things are going on.)
Michael Burry sold most of his holding in September last year. It's kind of why he's criticizing the reddit crowd.

Can you help me point out which laws passed have MSP mentioned. I actually read all three laws but couldn't find mentioned of MSP or MSP alternation.

Just want to know is your opinion based on newspaper or news channel or you actually did some research on it. No offense just want to understand.

I think most people are just trying to make money and a bubble is a great way to make money. Until it isn't.
Interesting they list quantum as a landmind. I wonder what is meant by that.
I’d be interested in hearing more elaboration on the points about the double standard, particularly in the context of a society that values individual rights
One of the biggest challenges for large orgs is that the knowledge they need to do a given thing is almost always present inside the organization — but it's fragmented and scattered across different teams, roles, and balkanized administrative boundaries such that the big picture is almost never available.

A high-quality consulting partner works to build the relationships and internal lines of communication that are necessary for the client organization to do more of the work — maybe all of it! — in the future. A cash-grab consultancy will just make themselves the organization's "glue" and bill until the money runs dry.
how can you provide feedback on how to make the point clearer if you don't understand what the point is? So I think you probably do understand it. There's no need to pretend you don't just because you disagree and you're not sure how to state your ddisagreements.

Sorry, (very) freudian slip there (i guess), i meant ressaured not re-assed haha

is that really true though that a crank is just a crank most of the time? I don't think that's true. I think the skill is looking for the sincerity and the truth in what they're saying aside from any noise that might be there as well. Just like you're trying to make the point of reducing distractions. And just like I think it's important in data analysis you know you want to increase the signal reduce the noise and that's something you as a reader can do. So I don't think it's true that a crank is just a crank it's too much of an easy dismissal. it's important to have these alternative hypothesis generators and to listen and not get distracted by the other stuff. If everyone was obsessed that Newton or Turing or Galileo had culturally normative crank ideas they would have missed the good stuff. And maybe there is good stuff in some of those culturally normative crank ideas. And maybe we did as a society miss out on some of the good stuff because we wanted to say oh cranks are just cranks. so I don't think we should do that and I think you should probably stop doing that if you want to support this idea of you know scientific inquiry and the expansion of knowledge. Just a pointer ;) :p

So, I see you making your points there and I've already made my points so I don't see anything more to add. I'm comfortable that we have different views on it.
The obvious solution is to put the chargers at the office. With a solar carpark roof, the power only travels a few feet in the ideal case, and you might not even need to upgrade the electrical service drop.
Absolutely it would be fair to have the same rules for everyone, regardless if they were 6 or 25 or 70 or a professional player, once the players are in the game. It might be _mean_ to treat the six year old like the 25 year old, but it would be fair. It would, however, potentially be unfair to put them in the same game in the first place, especially if there were alternatives.

Meanness and unfairness are two different things.

Especially in a family setting, sometimes niceness can Trump fairness.

You know, it's funny, then someone brings up Hazaras or Ahmedis and it's like that scene in Baadshah where the clock strikes 13:30 (not trying to invoke any baara baj gaye stereotypes by stealth sorry in advance)
> a strained analogy, but this thing is akin to saying that "you can eavesdrop https" and then show ld_preload hooks for intercepting openssl calls.

Well, it would be fair game if it were popular to discuss how HTTPS helps against malicious local programs, like it is pretty popular with Wayland.
Not having children or pets won't really change our carbon emissions in the next ten to fifteen years, which is the time frame that matters if we want to stay below 2°. And unless you want to reduce the human population to zero, it's not a sustainable path to net zero emissions.
I don't believe that the protestors have a moral high ground in this particular case. Many of them receive free electricity and all of them don't pay any taxes (no matter how much they earn). In states like Punjab, the farmers have entered a vicious cycle where they keep planting water-hungry crops like wheat and rice due to the Minimum Support Price that they get on those (the water table in this region is in danger). Plus these protestors are also against the laws that fine farmers for burning the stubble after harvest (which results in the infamous Delhi smog every winter).
Basically, it's a fight between two groups with vested interests.
OSX scaling is implemented such that non-int scaling makes pixel-perfect rendering literally impossible. (Hello moire!)

Windows has pretty perfect handing for non-int scaling, though it's on apps to do the right thing. Modern browsers (including Firefox) handle this great, though other apps may or may not.
This is depressing but oh so true. I've worked at a few companies and they're all the same.

The business team schedules an hour meeting with the project manager once a week for two years to figure out the requirements.

I spend a sprint implementing the backend in parallel with a frontend person. We spend another sprint testing and fixing bugs.

Then the project sits in UAT for 6 months while the business suggests contradictory things.

Finally the project is shelved indefinitely due to budget issues.

Edit: fixed typo
At the very least, GME can print as much stock as they want and sell it into the market. They'd be crazy not to.
I don't get why people use Docker for "small SaaS apps" where "scale is not an issue". You can run everything without Docker to remove an extra level of indirection. I've been doing that exact thing with a very similar Django stack for years. Not once have I missed Docker. On the other hand, I have taken over SaaS projects where the (unnecessary) usage of Docker made it more expensive to host, decidedly more difficult to debug and maintain, and tests were slow, making me less productive.

As the reason for using Docker, the author writes "The benefits of matching your development environment to your production one cannot be overstated". Again in my personal experience, this simply isn't an issue. Just use the same Python version and a roughly similar PostgreSQL version in development and production, and you're good to go.

In short, I feel OP would be better off without Docker. Once you know the rest of the stack well enough, you can set it up in dev and prod in such a way that you can trust that what works in dev will also work on prod. I've been doing this without problems for years.
I disagree with the degree severity of the OP’s statement. But US foreign policy coupled with shifts in climate (political and meteorological?) have made large parts of Central America pretty unlivable. To the extent the we are responsible for the state of affairs in Central America, we should be taking in refuges and economic migrants.
I just started reading 'Skin in the Game' by Nassim Taleb. These kind of overpriced consulting contracts, where nobody in particular bears the downside risk of incompetence, fit into his framework well. Hiring Deloitte et al usually amounts to outsourcing responsibility, except the people who do the work also bear little or no long-term responsibility if things go bad. A 3-person startup, on the other hand, suffers from severe downside (at least in a business sense) if they mess something like this up.
IBM was always good at understanding these "government processes", while Apple always struggled with them... and kept up with what they understand very good: consumer buying/selection processes... :-)
Yep. It had little do with GameStop or AMC.
Yet that is the part that is broken now.

Sure all the requirement gathering and other costlier project parts can doom the success of the project because you built the wrong thing.

Here however the tech debt and bugs is why the project is abandoned
Why are they even building custom software at all if the target demographic is 70+ ? And why are they making senior citizens opt-in for an appointment ? its idiotic. They should have nationalized the browser/OS vendors to provide a solution, for free if its a national emergency.
Once Evs like the ones Volkswagen is producing hit the US market things will change. The ID.4, for instance, will bring a compact SUV form (that is highly regarded) for barely over $30,000 (less than a tricked out Honda CR-V). That will be huge.
Yes, thank you. This was nicely written.

If that’s the case, do you have a single source for any RSS leader saying that? How did you count there are millions of these tweets? How did you ascertain their origin?
It also almost certainly applies to whatever every person here works on, no matter what industry you're in or how close to pure tech it is. In fact, I'm not sure I can think of a single field where even the most brutally difficult software tech problem is actually the difference between success and failure. It can be a prerequisite, and it can often be a bottleneck to iteration speed, but it's never the real problem, which is something SWEs need to understand in order to move up into leadership.
Is it really that diverse? If you just assume Linux=Ubuntu+bash, sure, you lose some users, but is it really a large part of them? (OTOH you definitely can't assume people run a supported version of Ubuntu and not something ridiculously old.)
Key word you missed is "materially".
It does look surprisingly good, but it's still blurring unless they changed it this year. Alternating-color pixel grids always moire there.
Is there free will, or is the universe "deterministic"?

Quantum mechanics usually is brought up as a source of randomness or irreducible complexity that may debunk determinism, which therefore may or may not imply "free will."

Most of the functionality requested in comments here is duplicative with what git offers on a local command line. One strategy:

$ git clone —depth 1 —bare <URL>

Followed by such as:

$ git-grep <regex>

$ git-log -G<regex> —stat -55
So let’s campaign for those? Let’s try to change those policies? Why should we go back on a good step to keep everybody in a shit place?
I think the issue is that they're allowing people to use cash right away when they sell, rather than waiting until T+2, and they can't instantly unilaterally change their ToS. They could block people from selling, but not block them from buying, but that would cause all kinds of problems.

As I remember, eTrade also used to not require you to wait until T+2 to reinvest the proceeds from stock sales.

If you like swarming crowd simulations, check out "They Are Billions", a massive zombie hoard survival real time strategy game.

https://store.steampowered.com/app/644930/They_Are_Billions/

It's easy to deal with a few zombies, since they're very slow and stupid, but as you get more and more of them all over the place, and then huge swarming waves of them, it's insanely challenging!

I love this game, but it's incredibly difficult, even on the easiest setting.

The lighter ranged spell casting zombies are maintaining a distance, but then holes form in their layer, and phalanxes of darker hand-to-hand melee zombies squirt through and fill in the gap. (@ 45:00)

Exactly, many of the beef factory owners are BJP members or Supporters. It should be simple to rule, provide safety, & quality of life, but dont dictate what to eat or wear or marry or sing or dance. As long as its not a defined crime, people should be able to decide if they want to eat beef or celebrate valentine.
