The money also stopped going from local, small scale growers and dealers to large agribusiness and retail stores.

I think more states should consider what DC has done. They’ve created a grey market where growing and distribution are still controlled by small businesses. The businesses can get lab testing done to show the purity of their products and many consumers expect this, but it isn’t required.
Well, let me pick those apart.

1) By-and-large, I do call people by what they want to be called, but by-and-large, I have few ways of knowing before we've interacted. Over email, I typically mirror whatever they use (if they call me with a title, I use that back; if they use first name, likewise). In person, I mirror what their colleagues use. Of course, that's imperfect, since we're in different places in the status hierarchy and have different levels of familiarity, but it's the best heuristic I've found. But just because I do that, I won't fault others for not doing it. Lack of access to cross-cultural education is common. I accept whatever people call me, so long as the *intention* isn't to be insulting.

2) Real and perceived sexism and racism cause the same level of harm. There's a lot of both -- I'm not downplaying real sexism or racism -- but if people aren't given cross-cultural tools, there's a lot of unnecessary harm as well. If a British woman/minority/etc. comes to the US, is called by her first name, and believes she's placed at lower status due to her gender, real harm is done, unnecessarily. And if an American women/minorities/etc believes everyone in Britain is stand-offish, similar harm is done. I see this sort of dynamic playing out over, and over, and over across virtually all cultural pairings.

3) I didn't actually follow the "fracas over Dr. Biden." Most news gets paid by clicks, and most fracas become much greater than they are. The right runs articles cherry-picking left-wing wackos, and vice-versa. I'm not going to alter my opinion over a fracas.

Getting back to hierarchy, for the most part, I actually think it's better to leave up to the person higher in the hierarchy to adapt (which, in my current job, is usually me). Right now, the First Lady is just about as close to the top as it gets. If she goes to a progressive elite universities, she should go by "Jill." If she goes to Britain, she should use an honorific or three. I think most African American communities might go with "Dr. Biden." And so on.
Show's again how blind universities are with millions of funding, a stundent has to show them.
Pretentious Lawyer is already a tautology, at least the ones who use Esq. are honest about it.
I wrote the book "Understanding SEO"[1] with Systems Theory in mind.

After the 1000 meeting w people talking about tips and tricks and competing theoretical constructs including bullshit and thoughtcancer constructs like "linkjuice, pagerank, pinguins, pandas, ..." I set out to build a bullshit free theory of SEO. For my own sake - otherwise I would have had to quit my job.

And yeah "All models are wrong, but some of them are useful." Rephrased: It's a model, therefore it's wrong. But we'll, I deem it damn useful.

It's really a matter of culture.

Things like httpie, jupyter, etc should be provided as pyz and binaries as well, not just pip installable, but python devs don't do that really often.

It's a shame, because cli tools should be black boxes, people should not have to think about the implementation. I regularly see cli python tools that output stack traces on errors, and it should not happen.

Anyway, if you want those tools to be always around, I really encourage you to grap a usb stick, and put them on there as pyz and binaries. It's always nice to have them at hand.

Here is an example procedure for both (run them in a venv).

For pyz files:

python -m pip install shiv --user # (Yes, I realize how ironic this is).

Then:

python -m shiv httpie -o http.pyz -c http

(download httpie, and creates a http.pyz file that will contains httpie and all it's dependancies, plus code to trigger the http command when called)

This will let you do "python http.pyz" anywhere you have a modern python and enjoy httpie without the need to pip install it.

For an exe (this is an example on linux, the commands are a bit different for windows and mac):

python -m pip install nuitka httpie --user

You need to have a C compiler and python headers around as well (gcc on linux will do, E.G: sudo apt install build-essential python3-dev on ubuntu).

Then:

python -m nuitka $(which http) --onefile --linux-onefile-icon /usr/share/pixmaps/python3.xpm --follow-imports --assume-yes-for-downloads

Wait quite a bit.

Now you have a nice stand alone AppImage you can call with ./http.bin to be used on any linux system, and not care if Python is installed to play with httpie.

Here are the resulting files (available for 5 days) so you can see what it looks like:

Ye someone else said this, I'll have a look into this asap. Thanks for letting me know
It is likely both. The link you provided is not a study. How many times did the cat jump up on the bed of a non-dying patient? How often on the beds of any random patient, making his jumps on the dying patients' beds simply part of the noise? Without a real study, we can't attribute superpowers to a cat.

In the sense that it is not a replacement for a real packager manager, yes. It is both slightly more restrictive and also not; as the sibling says, it installs to a particular directory, and that means uninstalling is easy, however, there is an install hook, but no uninstall hook, so if that puts files somewhere, which in theory it can, they won’t be removed on uninstall. This also kinda sorta means people don’t do that in the install hook.
Yeah that was sad. Whiteys shop was right next door to the old Midwestern Ice Cream Co storefront actually!

Not sure shipping was an issue - we actually have refrigerated trucks in Iowa. You can ship iced cream just like meat or anything else. Maybe long-distance management was problematic - not every business manager can figure out franchising.

My sister has a Winan's Chocolate and Coffee shop in town, which is headquartered in Piqua Ohio! She used to work in that town, liked their product, and when she retired she walked into a store and said "I want to open one in Iowa!"
The couple that runs the chain (3rd generation Winans) said "Sure! It'll be the first one West of the Mississippi!"

Weeks of training, lots of specs for cabinetry and signage and her shop opened. With a 2-page agreement written on notepaper by Joe.

Working 'ok'. Winans owns the other 24 shops, this is the only one owned by somebody else. So some bumps in the road early on - they kept sending 'standard loads' of chocolate, coffee and shop seasonal decoration even though in Iowa she sells lots more chocolate than coffee (the opposite of all the other stores), doesn't have the same furniture nor wall space for trimming, has little storage. Half the business is premium gift baskets for real estate agents, hotels etc. Everything is Ohio branded and this is Iowa. And so on.

Anyway it works all kinds of ways.
> She is a professor.

Shouldn't we call her 'Professor' then, since that outranks 'Doctor'?
The bakery argument is kind of a right wing "red herring", the problem with it is "Mr. Baker" would have a reasonable argument if the customers were preforming the morally or religiously objectable behavior accoring to Mr. Bakers personal beliefs within the walls of his bakery but that is not the case.

The argument of users of social media platforms having an ownership stake in them because they supported their growth through the sharing of privately owned media might be a bit better but still smells of socialism to me. The users being banned and censored are preforming their actions within the walls albeit virual walls of said social media company.

The best argument the post makes is that there are no other options for the social media user to effectively share their media and therfore they are being discriminated against, but that needs to be tied with the fact goverments are also supporting the social media company by sharing publicly funded media or services on said platform.
Some of it yes, some of it no.

I suspect the author and I diverge politically in important ways, and think the piece would have been stronger if it had avoided certain topics. However, I think its main argument is solid and succinct.

The problem with limits on free speech is that a certain proportion of what's critical will seem taboo, malformed, or false to the majority until it doesn't. I think this is true regardless of the right vs left leaning nature of those involved.
If by ex-cons you mean people who were imprisoned for marijuana use then yes, they do tend to support the party which wants to decriminalize marijuana.

Personally, I'm not a fan of TypeScript anyway.

JavaScript is a lost cause to me. I'm not a full time JS Dev, so every time I have to touch one of our Node projects at work, I mentally prepare myself for very slow dev speed (ironic, considering the arguments that dynamically typed, loosey goosey, language speed you up) and frustrating bugs around `this`, mixed up function arguments, forgetting to await promises returned from functions, etc.

But TypeScript really doesn't actually help that much compared to an IDE that understands JSDoc. Its type system is unsound and it's too accommodating of JavaScript's nonsense.

If I ever start a new project that just has to run on Node, I'd probably try one of these languages that transpiles to JS, but is totally different, like Clojure or OCaml.
IIRC I'd need both pipx and pyenv, because pipx alone will use whatever Python distribution is in my path.
I recently had the (possibly flawed) epiphany that all behavior is emergent. If you think about it, all things that we consider objects are just semi-permanent aggregations of fundamental particles that we recognize and label as objects for convenience of thought. When the patterns in such aggregations are outside the space and time scales that allow human minds to recognize them, the only label available is "complex".

BigQuery or Snowflake seem rather extreme for anything I might consider personal data. Even logging as many things as in the article a local sqlitedb and your preferred backup solution would get pretty far. It might be easier to setup nice dashboards with a cloud product though.
For graphing: different data requires different representations, so I'm figuring out how to do it in my dashboard project: https://github.com/karlicoss/dashboard

For dashboard, I started with health related data, because feel like other stuff (like 'histogram of my tweets' would be amusing, but not super useful immediately), and don't really expect any interesting quantified self insights from it.

I'm gradually figuring out 'generic' ways to compute, plot and examine correlations, e.g. here https://github.com/karlicoss/dashboard/blob/708eb183130de31e...

In general I'd like to have some automatic system which can consume all of my data and suggest interesting correlations in almost unsupervised way.

(got more notes/possible implementations on it here https://beepb00p.xyz/exobrain/projects/dashboard.html#mtvtn )
Yea.. really feel bad for the people caught up in this. I can't imagine the sheer terror sources like those must experience every single day of their lives. Then they are caught and executed (and hopefully not tortured, but I would expect them to be). All due to some little league bs setup that an IT intern could unravel. It makes me incredibly grateful to have a boring mundane life where I don't have to look over my shoulder constantly and have an ever present sense of doom.

Depends on how you define “c++ based compiler.” In the sense that it uses a library written in C++, yes, but “based” is kind of a stretch. It is an important one but not irreplaceable.
It won't. People were screaming about Tether back in 2017, 4 years, still going strong. Keep in mind, they aren't the only stablecoin in the market now, so even less relevant to the crypto space.

I really appreciate the effort on this, after 8+ years of SEO it can get a little hectic to say the least.

But honestly. Truthfully.

Backlinks are all you need to rank. I've been white/black/grey hat SEO and each and every time, buying a bunch of solid backlinks (a.k.a. you get what you pay for) and within 2 weeks I am on page 1 and still rocking. For 246k keyword too. Spend a bit of time running some searches these days and since the two major algo updates in Dec/Jan all rules have basically gone out of the window.
Kicking the can. The scheduled landing is already beyond Biden's first term, so this seems to amount to the administration telling NASA it is free to spend its allowance however it wants. Finally squashing this will be someone else's job, but squashed it will be.
But the topic is about drug laws in America. America had centuries of race-based slavery, significant political fighting and wars based on protecting race-based enslavement, and after said enslavement was banned a further generation(or two) of institutionalized separation of services based on race. In America there are people alive who at one point were unable to participate in the democratic political system because of their race.

America is unique in that their culture has only fairly recently outlawed explicitly, institutionally treating people of other races as lesser than whites, as a result of longstanding cultural traditions and norms to justify centuries of have race-based slavery. (The only way you can have massive slavery of a specific race of people in a society and have that society not view it as a complete aberration is if they somehow normalize and justify it to themselves.)

In this context of a country has had, until very recently, explicitly government sanctioned discrimination on the bases of race, it makes sense that even though explicit discrimination is no longer allowed laws may still be passed that are designed to implicitly be government sanctioned discrimination on the basis of race.
Why does that even matter?

Do you think Tesla is worth what it trades for?

Nobody is mad they bought in at 400 and are now sitting at 50. They're mad because they bought in at 150, were promised a squeeze, and when it happened the market makers stepped in and pulled the fucking rug out.

People are mad because the game is rigged and there is no free market. It's just bullshit. It literally proved the whole premise of "the movement"

The thing I’ve noticed about people around me using tons of “productivity” tools is that in the end they’re not actually producing more stuff than the regular folk who don’t organize their life around Notion boards or personal wikis...

This article is yet another example of this phenomenon. I mean sure, Stephen Wolfram founded the company that makes Mathematica. But other than that, his achievments are pretty underwhelming especially when discounting his aggressive self-promotion. His body of work is mostly a lot of handwavy stuff with some interesting ideas sprinkled in. The science community doesn’t really take him seriously. So the question remains: are these productivity habits anything but symptoms of a mild case of OCD? Where’s the purported “produce” that these productivity tools enabled him creating?
The parseInt bug that's mentioned in thd article is very likely to catch you eventually if you use Javascript for long enough.

The habit that I developed as a response to that is to always pass a lambda to the callback. That is, write this:

foo(x => f(x))

instead of

foo(f)
Looks interesting.

The link in the returned email isn't clickable though, and comes with a period at the end. You have to be careful to copy and paste the link without the period otherwise it redirects to the home page.

I’ve never heard it, but the thirds often end with nicknames like Trip (as in triple) or Tres (south Texas / 3 in Spanish) or if your in south Louisiana the the prefix of petit (little, eg Jean and petit Jean) is appended to the junior vs the senior
I've been bitten by it.

I'm used to statically typed languages that allow calling HOF's with a function reference. If the signature matches, there's no reason to wrap it in a lambda.

So I did the same, reflexively in a Node project recently.

I've learned my lesson and now I just know to always use a lambda forJS function arguments.

I can’t really judge the usefulness of this tool as I’m not that familiar with IAM, but I’d be wary of using this in a work situation because I would be really worried I’d accidentally search for “imlive”, which is an adult cam site.

Maybe I’m just being paranoid but it feels like if I unintentionally named my super useful and totally innocuous project “poorNHub”, I’d want someone to point out how that might cause problems down the line for adoption.
Oh, Computershare software is so terrible that I am surprised they weren't sidelined yet by someone new.
Often times in my opinion, those people then when they get released are a whole different person and you can learn lots from them about life and especically appreciating things we (outside) take for granted. And in my opinion such a program solves the last step after the release, and that is reintegrating.
According to the wiki it's a combination of historical happenstance:

> It has not been customary in the United States to address holders of the J.D. as "doctor". It was noted in the 1920s, when the title was widely used by people with doctorates (even those that, at the time, were undergraduate qualifications) and others, that the J.D. stood out from other doctorates in this respect.

and a form of… I guess gatekeeping / elitism?

> In the late 1960s, the rising number of American law schools awarding J.D.s led to debate over whether lawyers could ethically use the title "Doctor". Initial informal ethics opinions, based on the Canons of Professional Ethics then in force, came down against this.

Apparently the 1969 Code of Professional Responsibility allows JD to call themselves Doctors but not all bars adopted it, and some adopted it without the clause.

So:

* it's customary in the US to not call JDs doctors

* it may or may not be allowed by the state bar

In 2011, Mother Jones had to amend an article where they stated that Michelle Bachmann "was misrepresenting her qualifications" by titling herself Dr. based on her JD.
I read somewhere there's been something like 3000 wars in recorded human history. Seems like a pretty frequent thing.
Thru out human history, raiding weaker neighbouring villages for resources, or access to females would be pretty rational behaviour for your villages growth and continuing success of your close genetic relatives.

So much so that parts of Human Male's anatomy seems to be purposely driven for combat and survival. Things like larger muscles, thickness of skull, thickness of neck. Also, societies seem to come together and cooperate, hunker down, in war and conflict. Also seems to me to have some genetic component to that social behaviour.

Only about 50% of men have reproduced through out human history. Raiding a neighbouring village, killing the man, and taking the best women for wives would be a rational though unethical behaviour. Its exactly what the Vikings did.

In fact, there's a growing concern that large and growing percentage of men, currently unattractive to females (internet incels) will lead to radicalization and possibly conflict in the west. As those man try to better their odds of reproduction. Currently they are genetic rejects.

A wing moving at its zero-lift-coefficient angle of attack will produce no lift, regardless of its speed. If it is at an AofA giving a positive lift coefficient, the lift will increase with speed.

Consider taking off in a taildragger. You start the takeoff roll with the tail on the ground, giving an angle of attack close to that of a stall, but at some point before lifting off, you typically raise the tail, because you do not want to stagger into the air on the point of stalling.

If you are flying level at a constant speed, and then raise the nose without changing the power, you will initially rise, but you have tilted the lift vector backwards, increasing its backwards component, so your thrust is no longer sufficient to maintain speed (it is the same as a car going from flat to uphill.) If you are on the back of the drag curve (where drag increases as you slow down), raising the nose can result in going into a descent.

An aircraft in a straight steady climb weighs no more than when it is flying straight and level, but there are two factors to consider. Firstly, the angle of attack is relative to your trajectory, which is now tilted. Secondly, on account of that, the lift is now tilted back, so the wing must create more lift in order that its vertical component is equal to the weight. Therefore, the angle of attack itself needs to be increased (and even more if your climbing airspeed is going to be lower that the speed you were cruising at.)

Putting it together: to go into a climb, you must increase your thrust (or 'get some back' by allowing the aircraft to slow down to reduce the drag, but that's not an option when you are going slowly.) Secondly, you must increase the angle of attack, but that happens as a consequence of adjusting the pitch of the aicraft to maintain the desired/correct speed.

Yeah, from an Austrian perspective the whole doctor title discussion in the US was sort of bizarre. Of course you call yourself doctor if you have a doctor's degree.
