I get where you are coming from. The idea of finding exercise that you enjoy doing is based on the thinking that you're more likely to continue to do something you enjoy.

Unlike cleaning or doing taxes, there are lots of very different ways to exercise. And most humans are conditioned to enjoy some form of exercise. It's likely you can find some activity that will give you a nice dopamine hit to keep you encouraged.

Plus, you never know what you might enjoy until you try it. I never thought I liked sports until college, when I discovered a love for playing tennis, squash, and flag football. I still hate watching any of these sports on TV, but I do love playing them.

I think the single best thing for me are just casual video chats. Whether they‘re 1on1, the whole team or randomized chat groups like the Donut bot does, doesn‘t matter. But it‘s important that they don‘t have a work-related agenda so no one feels pressured to get some specific outcome.

> This article is the very definition of a straw man. Absolutely no one subscribes to the position it critiques.

The article critiques a position that consists of multiple beliefs. While it is true that ~nobody subscribes to all of them, each individual belief is very well-represented amongst the "anti-racists." As a consequence, to anyone under attack by a Twitter mob, the situation looks exactly as McWhorter describes: you're being hit from all directions by the entire span of mutually contradictory nonsense.

Unless you were planning to graduate in 3 years or less, I've personally never seen anyone experience this.

Advisors should have worked with you to make sure your semester workload floats at around 40-50 hours a week, 60 hours at most during a bad semester. Some people actually care about retaining the material they're learning - taking 4 engineering classes a semester is a waste of time and likely detrimental to learning. It's usually 2-3 engineering classes plus a few easy blow off classes a semester to get all done in 4 years.
> Cambridge Analytica's app on Facebook had harvested the data of people who interacted with it - and that of friends who had not given consent.

This is the problem (quote from op article). Facebook collected data on people and than shared this data to third parties without their consent. That friends gave consent to this has no relevance. They don't have the right to do so and they didn't do it themselves. Facebook did - on the request of CA (or rather that 'researcher'), with the approval of friends.
I'm going to be honest, after writing some programs in Go a few years ago, I was hoping for something nicer by now. I know writing Go is good because it's boring, but all this boilerplate just feels like reading Java in 2005.

>Yes, you can argue that Twitter exhibits double standards in some instances. But it has nothing to do with the original debate you and I were having which is - what was the reason Greenwald's article was not published.

It absolutely is relevant. There is clear coordination between these organizations to suppress information. You can't look at the bannings occurring across multiple media platforms simultaneously (multiple instances) and not draw this conclusion. Further, there's a revolving door between government agencies and media companies - this industry is carrying water for the powers that be.

>Also, Trump's tax returns were not hacked

What is social engineering? You're arguing in trivial semantics and missing the forest for the trees.

Hacked was never a legitimate threshold for suppressing information before someone in power was threatened.

Crypto has beauty too. Surely technologists can appreciate an elegant algorithm? Art takes years of craft to perfect, and part of the value of the final piece reflects the years of work that went into training and developing the artist's skills. Well, crypto too is a craft, built on decades of research and centuries of mathematics (much like the long view of art history would say that one school of art influences the next, over centuries). And much like art, not every piece of art appeals to every audience, but that doesn't mean that unpopular art can't have beauty, and likewise just because some may not appreciate the cryptographic beauty of the algorithms and consensus mechanisms behind Bitcoin, doesn't mean it can't have beauty... It just means you might not appreciate it, just like you might not appreciate all pieces of art.

My point is that, if you break the individual elements that contribute to the value of art, and think about why billionaires buy and sell art, then a lot of those first principles for why value exists, can also be applied to crypto (e.g. scarcity, ease of exchange relative to holding gold at least, a sense of value that isn't tied to practical applications, etc.). And in fact, trading pieces of art around and dealing with physical custody and preservation and forgeries/authenticity and "provenance", just seems to be like an inefficient/clunky physical world blockchain with extra steps and ineffective tokens, if you ask me. So really my point is just that, crypto having some inherent value beyond just tulip mania/pump and dump/greater fool/etc., maybe isn't so weird at all.

It's been almost ten years since I last done any of the back end math for this kind of thing, but you could probably get within the ballpark using COTS rubidium oscillators like those used for cell towers. They often show up on auction sites at affordable prices.

Use the pulse output to lock a station clock for your local time needs (like syncing your data recording to wall time) and the sine output to lock your mixing oscillators.

One of my favorite things I've ever read is David Stove's essay on this subject, "What is Wrong with Our Thoughts?" wherein a cranky old philosopher excoriates his profession.

To be fair, as the GP states, most philosophers are honest about this. How much better off we'd all be if economists would admit the same truth about their "discipline".
French intellectual celebs from the period only started talking postmodernism in the 70s and 80s, after Anglos started asking them about it!

the idea itself is largely derived from Fredric Jameson's writings on it in the 1980s. he characterizes it primarily as a flattening of emotional and historical affect such that all time periods represented in culture fundamentally partake of a liberal market-oriented ideological framework. in that sense, Foucault can be seen as paradigmatic through his willful 'rewriting' of the historical archive.
Java Feature Spotlight: Pattern Matching
Yes, it’s true that some central banks have chosen a different side of the triangle, but the likes of USD and GBP are firmly on the same side of the triangle as Bitcoin (free flowing capital and independent monetary policy). It’s specious for the OP to claim that they are attempting to fix their exchange rates, because they are clearly not. Trying to explain Bitcoin’s enormous deflationary pressure and volatility using analysis like this is just impossible.

Yes, if we were absolutely convinced of the correctness of analytical philosophy and the impossibility of good hypotheses arising from other approaches that would indeed be a good filter. If we are not quite so certain perhaps we should not prematurely put the kibosh on ideas just because they run afoul of one particular point of view, but rather let them all into the arena to fight it out?

I have seen a few other ransom messages from various other events, and they have exactly the specific brand of cringeworthy writing that is displayed here. It's the same sort of distinctive style you see on .nfo files from scene releases and on Anonymous-related statements. I'm not saying we can conclusively determine anything, just that the format of it appears quite plausible to me.
As someone who's read a lot of ransomware ransom notes, it sounds very similar to all the ones I've read and looks likely to be legit. It's often exactly in this form, with a text or Word file named something like "read_me_unlock.txt" as it's named here, and text similar to this.

They're trying to get the attention of whoever happens to see the mysterious file, and they often use that kind of extravagant tone with a lot of exclamation points. The goal is to extort as much money as possible and they think this is the best scare tactic to achieve it. Ransomers also may not necessarily be the smartest, oldest, or most educated people.

I'd be extremely surprised if it was somehow fake, given the company posted it all themselves.
> Better yet, read them! They answer your question.

What question is that? I don't see how reading these books could possibly persuade me of anything other than there are two people who espouse some overly extreme ideas with regards to racism. And I will happily concede that without reading them. So I was wrong when I said that "absolutely no one" believes this crap. Two people believe it. Maybe even 100. Maybe even 1000.

But McWhorter claims that third-wave anti-racism is mainstream (his word) and so far I have seen zero evidence of that.

The biggest difference in Aesprite's case is a limit on distribution. From their own blog post on the subject:

> [The new EULA] still gives you the possibility to compile and modify the program for your own purposes, but it doesn’t allow you to redistribute Aseprite.

Fully open source licenses do not restrict the end user's freedoms in this way; rather, they generally encourage (and sometimes require) sharing source code modifications so the larger community can benefit from your work. This tends to be at odds with some commercial models (especially the "sell copies of software" model) so there's much debate about when each type of license is most appropriate.

John McWhorter [1], together with economist Glenn Loury [2], describe themselves as the black wing of the Intellectual Dark Web (IDW) [3]. One can argue that he and Steven Pinker make up the linguistic wing of the IDW and both are cultural treasures.

This is cool and something about Go that I hadn’t researched much yet. It does make me wonder, however, why not just include some higher level structure for this? Or even some method built into the compiler? It feels odd to have to install a dependency like `stringer` just to build. Do I had it to my go.mod file? Also, the comment structure, while flexible, could be greatly simplified for common cases like this if there was, for instance, an enum type.

I really do enjoy Go, but there are several examples of things like enums that are left out because there is some way of doing it otherwise to only the theoretical advantage of “elegance” at the cost of developer productivity.

A pension is a debt that the company owes you. Betting your retirement that the company will pay you back is comparable to investing your whole 401k in the company’s bonds. Yes, responsible companies plan ahead and save for their debts. But sometimes they don’t. Sometimes they fail. That’s why there is interest: compensation for risk. Responsible investors don’t take on such enormous counterparty risks with individual counterparties.

You left out ‘Japanese Knotweed Solicitors’, an area in which they claim to specialise.

Cavity wall and subsidence solicitors are rather less interesting.
Pay-to-win does not have to be black-and-white; nor should one expect it to be if it could be used against them in a court.

All of the following can be true:

-Yelp removes obviously false reviews.

-Yelp does not remove obviously true reviews.

-It is better for your business' rating to pay Yelp.

Yelp is the arbiter of what constitutes 'false'. It stretches credulity to believe that Yelp taking payment from a business has no influence on this determination. Even sending paying and non-paying requests down different pipelines could result in more negative false reviews being removed for paying businesses. For instance, spending more time considering whether a review is false might lend itself to ultimately removing more reviews. This needn't be intentional.

So, the question in my mind is whether Yelp deserves the reputation; rather than whether any specific allegation is true in exactly the way it is alleged. If the allegations about their salespersons' claims are true the answer must be that they not only deserve the reputation, but that they built it themselves.

(As a Yelp user, I already consider them too shady to use. Maybe they've changed, but their deceitful links that pushed me to open their app were so frustrating and off-putting I've quit them entirely.)
I thought the passage was valuable because it made a point about individualism. If conservatives or liberals believe in that caricature, then the article is challenging their perception.
Fair point, let me try and ellaborate. Of course, time will tell. But the data science community fixation is on algorithms, not on languages. So you would need to build Tensorflow or Pytorch upon Nx, and you would need to migrate people from the easy Python/Anaconda/Jupyter to the BEAM world. For that to happen the upside should be obviously evident, I guess in terms of performance.

Take, for example, the web world. I believe Phoenix is technically the best framework out there, or at least on par with Rails. And it has not taken the web world by storm (yet). Why would Nx be a success without the support of Google or someone that big?
I just posted a super quick addition of a title attribute on the language color box. So you should be able to hover over the little colored box at the left of framework names to see the language name for that color.

> If you told me I'm not allowed to say "blah" and should use "blech" instead

I didn't say you weren't allowed to say it, I said it would be inflammatory. "blah" is only the right word if you choose to be inflammatory. So given that this is the word you have chosen to use, why should I assume you meant something different? Now you may not want to deal with the consequences of that word, after you've used it -- that's fine, but I know what you meant at the time.

> I'm not interested in having any conversation where the invocation of one word or another can detail the whole discussion. If that's the case, then I'd rather leave that conversation anyway.

Always your choice to not be in any conversation. I'd argue that most people that use the word are intending to derail the conversation. People aren't that stupid. They know what they're doing.

> And why don't I have the right to be offended by the phrase "n-word"

You can be. You an be offended by the word "the". You can completely remap the English language any way you like. That's your choice.

> Every time I hear it I feel the implication that my freedom of expression (a human right, mind you) is being slowly eroded.

Why? Because we've given you more choices to express yourself? Are you triggered by all euphemisms? In fact there are audiences that will love it if you say the actual n-word -- especially in a derogatory way toward Black people if you like. Enjoy your freedom of expression, you can exercise it.

> Need I point out that, as an east-German the issue of freedom of expression is historically much closer to me than racism and slavery

Racism is still very much alive today, so I'm not sure how freedom of expression is much closer to you today than racism is for Blacks -- but I guess you wouldn't know since you're not Black.
