The original argument was that authors should be seen as the owners of their works, and that ownership is a basic human right. Some of the historical arguments:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Licensing_of_the_Press_Act_166...

"The stationers petitioned Parliament for new censorship legislation, and when that failed they argued that authors had a natural and inherent right of ownership in what they wrote (knowing there was little an author could do with such rights other than sign them over to a publisher).[3] This argument persuaded the Parliament and in 1710 the first Copyright Act (8 Anne, c. 19) was enacted."

What is ownership? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ownership

> Ownership is the state or fact of exclusive rights and control over property, which may be any asset, including an object, land or real estate, intellectual property, or until the nineteenth century, human beings. ....

> Intellectual property (IP) refers to a legal entitlement which sometimes attaches to the expressed form of an idea, or to some other intangible subject matter. This legal entitlement generally enables its holder to exercise exclusive rights of use ...

Lastly, ownership is seen as a basic human right. Quoting https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Property_rights_(economics) :

> This idea of ownership must be constrained from the views of absolute ownership to a right to use the good within its expected scope of use.[3] Ownership goes beyond the basic notions of property rights to this idea of viewing the ability to own as one of the most basic human rights.

I imagine you also have difficulties with "property right", "water right", and "transit rights" (for the last see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Freedoms_of_the_air#Transit_ri... ).

In answer to your question, the concept of "rights", like "fundamental human rights", is a human construct, just like "nations". We believe they exist only because we choose to believe they exist. As such, these concepts can be seen as effective propoganda.

A rant about disinformation that itself seems to stretch the truth and omit information.

> For example, reports of Hunter Biden’s dealings with Ukraine and China that were leaked mere weeks before the 2020 Presidential Election were characterized by our infallible national security experts as “Russian disinformation,” before eventually being accepted as fact six weeks later—conveniently after the election had concluded.

Omits the fact that Trump's lawyer was directly involved in the "leak", thus controlling the timing, and mysteriously has no source for it being "confirmed as fact".
Sure. I am saying "the what", you are suggesting a "how." Hopefully the parent's wisdom and experience enables them to select the right approach for the circumstance.

Using the "clean your room" example though, that's more of a skill and habit because it's not the kind of thing that's gonna feel like "a mistake to learn from" - perhaps until much much later. That's actually how it worked out with me, my mom is a messy hoarder and I grew up like that, but by the time I moved in with my now-wife I just brought my plant, computer and a small amount of clothes :)

But my life would have been better if I was always neat and organized rather than figuring it out in my late 20s.

Up until I bought my 2017 Highlander I was driving a 2001 Golf which was purchased in 2008. It was still running well in the end. I just couldn’t see myself replacing the clutch when I was already sick how poorly it fit my lifestyle. If I didn’t have kids I’d have kept it on the road for sure.

It had 300k km on it and ran just fine. Newer cars run forever with basic maintenance. I sold it for $1k and the buyer planned to give it to their teen as a commuter, so I assume it’ll be on the road a while yet.
>I believe it’s usually a heathy practice in life to look for the straightforward explanations that don’t assume bad motives in the part of the actor you are looking at.

Tesla sells heated seats etc and when you buy it, what you get is a software update enabling the existing hardware - it's artificial scarcity done for business reasons, i.e. their add-ons business plan is built around preventing users from controlling their own hardware.

They slipped another year? "During its announcement, Ford also reminded us that the electric version of its cash cow, the F-150, is slated to go into production in mid-2022. Not the 2022 model year, which begins in September of 2021.

Jeep pulled that stunt. 2018: “In addition to the all-new mild hybrid Wrangler, a full plug in electric Jeep Wrangler will be available in 2020”. That slipped to 2022. Worse, "2022 will introduce electric powertrain that will be available exclusively on the Rubicon trim level.", which means paying at least 75% more.

I was ready to buy one of those. My existing Jeep Wrangler is coming up on 15 years. But no. They're pushing "mild hybrids" this year, which will be obsolete before they are fully debugged.

The thing I personally despise about football is that it is basically "made for TV". The constant stoppages for commercials make it terrible. I watched a rugby match the day before an away game and it was just so much more exciting because it didn't stop every ten seconds. Football just stops like every ten seconds, if it had a little faster tempo it would be more exciting, and it feels like the reason it's not is so they can cram in more commercials.

> Stadiums and Cities Matter - Even the stadium and climate in a city factor into a football team’s strategy.

The air force academy is a fair bit higher than Denver or even Colorado Springs itself (the cadet area is 7258 feet above sea level). I'd have to check but it's probably one of the highest stadium altitudes for any college.

Physical exertion at those altitudes is significantly more difficult if you're not acclimated to the altitude, ideally living up there but the first week can be tough if you aren't extremely cardio-fit. So Air Force had a built of an inbuilt home-field advantage, and when they went down to lower altitudes we had a bit of an advantage there too (living at altitude and coming back to sea level was wild, I could rock aerobic activity at sea level, you just didn't get out of breath much at all).

The crowd would heckle the away team in the gates, chanting: "the air is rare!"

Didn't stop us from sucking though, the football team was terrible.

Things I can never appreciate. People (predominantly African American) are getting their brains curried for the sake of other people (who are stereotypically if not predominantly white). If it weren't for nostalgia or the fact that too many Americans consider it in their bloods to watch this sport, such a cruel game shouldn't exist in this form.

The racist undertones don't seem to stop there. I watched a game in A&M and it was surreal - a good fraction of the team is black but almost no one in the stadium was. And the quarterback and coach are white, and are commanding a bunch of black kids to smush their brains permanently. Given that at least roman gladiators were paid professionally, college football sounds far closer to slave-driven thunderdome scenarios than even the Colosseum did.
Yeah, brainwashing carries a negative connotation. I'm not sure what the right verb would be. "Persuading" is too weak, since we're talking about changing the person's fundamental value system away from being too ambitious.

> such courses might be more successful at extending students’ mobility in avalanche terrain

That's the point.

It's very easy to travel through the snow without exposing yourself to any avalanche risk: just stay away from snow that's steep enough to avalanche. If you're going "hiking on skis", that's all you need to know.

It's not quite so easy if you want to go climbing, but it isn't that hard. If an avalanche sweeps you off the mountain, your immediate problem is falling off a mountain. Being caught in an avalanche is a comparatively minor issue. So you're going to be conservative: if any kind of subtle analysis is called for, you stay in the hut, and wait until the snow is obviously stable. In climbing season, that will happen soon enough.

What's tricky is going skiing. In winter, either you're willing to take some calculated risks with avalanches, or you'll be limited to pretty boring skiing. People don't do avalanche courses to be safe (you can do that without a course). They do them to take more risks, skiing in less obviously safe conditions, and get away with it. Which is all good, provided that you're honest about what you're doing.

Maybe a good comparison is a pilot getting an instrument rating. The safest option will always be to stay on the ground in bad weather. The reason they'd get the rating is to travel reliably, but less safely, by flying through bad weather when the rewards justify the risks.

I know a lot of people hate the rich and are happy to see such misery befall them. But for many I think a residence here may have been something like a lifelong dream, and to have their money tied up in a condo that is repeatedly flooded sounds awful. Not to mention the stress and anxiety that comes with such situations. Homeowners with more modest homes will also know the pain and frustration if they have dealt with bad contractors or made a regrettable home purchase.

Noise is what turns me off from high rise residential buildings. When you watch the construction, many don’t event have concrete walls between apartments on the same floor, and I am ready to guess the concrete floors are as thin as required to keep the weight of the structure down. Add to that all-glass external walls, and I only heard stories from friends who live there that you hear everything your neighbours do, particularly walking on wooden floor.

> She wanted to be a single mother if she had a daughter but not if she had a son? / Why not if she had a son? / Why specifically if she had a daughter?

These are all the same question, which is answered "I didn't want the father to be involved with a daughter, after being married to him for a few years, she would be damaged." - my very frank mom, who was a teacher - and I'm her elder son. My mom was never worried about being a single mother.

Of course these questions have been asked, but the answer isn't really interesting. My question is if the conclusion that "daughters cause more instability" vs "mothers have diverse motivation to break a marriage", are the takeaways. I'm not sure that proper consideration was given, as if someone was searching for an answer, since they are pointing to it like it's a proper characterization of the data.
They are incentivized to avoid confrontation with the west.
But the question is whether they will face confrontations.

Right after the Biden administration has taken over, we immediately see Myanmar Coup, Russian persecution of oppositions, China sailing to Japan's Senkaku Islands, not to mention China's constant provocation in Taiwan's airspace.

They are testing the limit the Biden administration. And if it's like the Obama era, the USA won't react in any meaningful manner. The EU, which looks up to the US, can't do much.

GM is selling EVs for $25k right now. The Chevy Bolt probably is the best EV for the money in the world today.

The Renault Zoe and the VW ID.3 are not too far off that price and are strong sellers in Europe. A smaller battery version of the ID.3 is coming out this year.
being a sucker for games that create complexity out of simple rules I do not enjoy American football at all. Granted I haven't grown up with it so I guess that makes it extra unfamiliar, but it seems so damn complicated. Multiple teams, constant pausing, so many rules, field goals, touchdowns etc. The author compares it to video games which I actually agree with, but I never really could get into league or magic for the same reason.

I'm more of a fan of soccer or tennis which both manage to be very simple but are to me much more dynamic
> However, with "Trump IS a Russian asset" narrative, there is a lot of circumstantial evidence that Trump really is a Russian asset. Yes, we don't have a recording of Putin giving Trump his orders but there is enough odd behavior from Trump to point to Trump being under the influence or control of Russia at some level. It is pretty damn clear that the Russians have something on Trump at the very least.

This is exactly the kind of reasoning that will get one labeled a "conspiracy theorist" when applied to myriad other topics. Where's your proof, your documented evidence?

Babashka programs run on sci, a Clojure interpreter written in Clojure. That interpreter is compiled with GraalVM to get quick startup time and single binary distribution. But passing on the sins of the father, so to say, here is like dismissing Lua becuase you don't like C libraries.

Providing libraries for babashka works over a language agnostic interface based on bencode-serialized data, and separate processes[1]. Indeed if you look at the pod registry there are pods writtenin Rust, Haskell, Go in addition to Clojure, not to mention the Python example in the pod tutorials.

The recall didn't involve any physical change, it was a firmware update that engaged the parking brake when the transmission is shifted into park. This shifter design came over from Mercedes, where it was used successfully.

A motor vehicle is a heavy machine which requires proper operation because it can cause serious injury and death. This is no different than operating a forklift. People need to start taking responsibility for their actions. If folks don't read the operating manual and can't successfully operate a motor vehicle, they have no business driving.
I'm not sure I agree with your wording, ie use "glucose energy to turn nitrogen into protein". Proteins are made up of amino acids which are made from carbon, hydrogen, oxygen and nitrogen atoms. The glucose not only provides energy to the process but also carbon, oxygen and nitrogen. In fact, this is a very common process in plants.

Note: The comment I originally responded to appears to have changed their wording from "living organism" to animal. Although curiously this might not be correct either. For example, humans synthesize some “nonessential amino acids” from glucose (eg glucose → pyruvate → alanine). It's possible similar amino acid pathways can be combined into a protein completely synthesized by the human body. It also seems very likely that this happens in other animals.

Many accelerators add faster CPU, Extra memory and IDE using original Motorola cpus and FPGA/CPLDs - what's cool about this is that it does all of that mostly in software (there's a CPLD to get the 68000 bus timing perfect) in real time without missing a beat.

System emulators like WinUAE don't have to be perfectly accurate with their timing, you can frame skip and do other tricks to catch up lost time but you can't do that when interfacing with real hardware like this. If you don't get the timing right it will crash
They pretty much gave up because of consumer choice and environmental bonuses lowering the price gap between diesel and EV. As if someone looking to buy an EV would get a diesel instead? They still offer it for Twizy though. A coworker bought a Twizy at battery rental price with env bonus. What's the point of offering a lease if getting the env bonus requires ownership of the battery? At first I thought the rental thing was a intended to extract more revenue from the customer when in fact it was an incentive to lower the upfront price and get more adoption.

>If the world switches, cities will be needing to do massive power overhauls and use more resources. This will be translated into electricity rates/taxes increasing.

From what I've heard, it'll need to increase by about 5%.

I don't have numbers, but increasing the grid by 5% doesn't sound catastrophically impossible. Not compared to shipping truckloads of fresh petrol to every town on the planet on a weekly basis, at least.

This highlights something I think more people should do: be as careful as possible while healing, and accept the fact of enduring some amount of pain. Sure, there are people with chronic pain problems, and extreme acute pain that probably calls for the big guns, but the fact that you were able to deal with it using tylenol and some self-care is IMO a good thing.

A bunch of years ago I broke two ribs, and decided not to go see a doctor, after a doctor friend told me they wouldn't be able to do anything about it, aside from prescribing pain medication and telling me to try not to move much (with the caveat that if at any point I started to have trouble breathing, I must call 911 and get myself to the ER). It wasn't a particularly fun 6-8 weeks of healing, and I took the max recommended dose of OTC ibuprofen many of the days, but I got through it. Would it have been nicer to have zero pain? Sure. But I don't think the addiction risks of something like an opiate would have been worth it, and the healing process serves as a reminder to me to take better care of my body.

(Just to be clear, because I'm sure someone will put words in my mouth otherwise: no, I don't think this "grin and bear it" method works for all situations! When it's possible and reasonable to get by with minimal pain medication, I think people are better off. But I think many people -- aided and abetted by overzealous prescription-writing by some doctors -- go too far in trying to remove all pain, to their detriment.)
