That may be true, but it doesn't lessen the risks. People who are predisposed to mental illness don't necessarily know that they're predisposed to mental illness.

If we're going to have honest discussions about the risks, it's important that we avoid blaming the victims by post-facto assuming that people harmed by a drug somehow had it coming due to an invisible predisposition. It doesn't change the math at all.
IMO the real problem is the decline of fertile soil.
Not exactly the same, but as a voice actor the DAW is my "IDE", and configuring it save a time-stamped backup of the project file every five minutes has really saved my bacon several times, especially when the undo tree won't let me undo back to the state of 5 minutes ago.
Texas didn’t have a statewide outage. I live in Rockwall and our power hasn’t so much as flickered all this week. There were a lot of outages in outlying areas for sure, I think it impacted about 1/3 of the population here in some way or another.

The phrase "POSIX.2" is archaic. If POSIX is IEEE Std 1003, then "POSIX.1" is IEEE Std 1003.1, "POSIX.2" is IEEE Std 1003.2, and so on.

In the first revisions, 1003.1 specified "Core Services" (mostly the C language stuff), and 1003.2 specified "Shell and Utilities". But when the Austin Group formed in 1997, they decided to roll the shell and utilities in to 1003.1. There no longer is a .2; it's been deprecated by 1003.1-2001 and all revisions since then.
This was my first thought. A timeline is nice, but the problem with a linear undo history is that if you undo and then edit, you lose access to the state before you undid. A tree is clearly the right structure for undo history.

I've gotten in the habbit of just commiting very frequently. I have a git alias "git cam" that just commits everything with the message "nt". Then once I've got something working, I use GitUp (which makes it very easy to merge/split/rearrange commits) to collapse all the nt commits into one or two coherent "real" commits.

Maybe a little clunky, but works well for me.

The local Czech stream (20k viewers!) I watched went over the events in real time and then commented how events were happening as signals were received on Earth - with the final confirmation of successful landing coming first via Twitter, no less! :)

Still a very nice yet nerve wrecking idea to do it like this - you know the lander is on Mars now. But is it safely on the ground or is there a third Shapirelli crater now ? You don't know! A huge relief in the end. :)
The code weaver approach doesn’t sound like something like hat is accessible to small time people... did they have to build their own thunking layers?

Sounds like it’s easier to rebuild as a Win32 and have OS X users use wine then.

I know a company the size of Apple can’t be expected to be some kind of stable dev platform like how Microsoft treats Windows where I can still run Win32 stuff from 1993 on Windows 10 x64. Maybe one day Apple might take an interest in the desktop again but it seems so unlikely.
> This is true to alcohol as well. Alcohol is ethanol (C2H5OH). When created unskillfully also you get methanol (CH3OH), which is really poisonous. A controlled, regulated market here is far safer.

This is a misconception. Alcohol has to be adulterated for it to even approach having enough methanol to be harmful. The only methanol most homebrewers and moonshiners will get is in whatever was added to the wort in the first place, usually fruits or juice, but this is not enough to be harmful, not by a longshot. Even when it's distilled, it's in such sparse amounts that the ethanol acts as an antidote.

The stories of methanol poisonings from the prohibition era were a combination of crooked dealers stretching bootleg liquor with wood alcohol, people making stills from car parts(containing methanol among other things), and authorities adulterating bootleg liquor to discourage buyers.

If you've got a still made of copper or stainless steel, and you didn't pour antifreeze directly into your wash, you'll be fine. Now still explosions is a whole other thing, and is a better argument from a safety perspective. Homebrewers have even less to worry about; it's so insanely safe that they couldn't keep it illegal any longer.

> Why is it so hard to see code from 5 minutes ago while in the middle of a change?

In vim you can do:

:earlier 5m

to see the code you had 5 minutes ago.

> (1) If you go to a prior state and then make a new change, you can no longer redo and all those changes are lost.

Vim makes a tree, so that doesn't happen with it. When you undo and make a new change, you're just making a new branch. u/Ctrl-r goes from leaf to trunk, but with g-/g+ or :earlier/:later you can walk the whole tree.

Emacs similarly doesn't lose changes in this scenario, but instead of making a tree, it has a ring and undo is an action that can be undone.

> (2) You can not see a side-by-side comparison of the previous version and the latest version.

It's probably not complicated to make a macro or function where you go to a previous version, copy the buffer, paste it in a new one on a new window, return the original buffer to the state you were in, and diff the windows for that side-by-side comparison.

A command like so suffices:

:earlier 5m | %y | later 5m | diffthis | vnew | put | 1d | diffthis

> (3) There is no visual indicator of where you are are in your undo/redo history.

Not by default, no. :undolist provides some info, though, and the vimscript undotree() function probably provides all the state of the undotree. There might be plugins that somehow present this info in the interface.

> (5) I have found many actions in code editors that do not get added to the undo stack (e.g., changing a debugger option), which caused me problems in the midst of an annoying bug.

In vim, only stuff that changes the buffer is added to the undo tree. Navigation or changes of the state of the editor (e.g. editor options or vimscript variables) aren't added. Are there really editors where adding actions that aren't changes make sense?

> (6) There is no indication of what steps were "big" or how long ago they happened.

That's also true in vim it seems, at least how "big" they where. Each step does have a timestamp, though.

> (6) It is tedious to backtrack one small step at a time.

You can backtrack by however many steps you want. :earlier also supports specifying by seconds, minutes, hours, days, or file writes.

Most cool of all is that vim can persist the undo history. I don't know how common that is among editors, but in vim you can go to a file you haven't opened in years and undo it all the way to its beginning.
Insurers have actuaries to make sure they don't go bankrupt. They would be plenty happy to just sit there as middle men skimming off a cut forever. With standardization of care it becomes a lobbing fight as every other player in the industry, plus various groups representing the public, are also working to get that standard to cover everything imaginable. This already happens with state minimum coverage requirements.

No. The beams would overlap, which is fine of they are on different frequencies, but eventually you run out of frequencies to use. Fiber confines the beam to inside the fiber. No overlap between one fiber and another means you can run multiple down the same pipe.

I'll answer the part of your question nobody else has: Yes, this legislator (Scott Wiener) gets a lot of public support. He won a closely contested election by two percentage points in 2016 against another Democrat to enter the state senate, and last year was re-elected in a high-turnout election by 14 percentage points. I would characterize Scott as one of the few people in our state senate who is even trying to address the most major problems in California, like the housing crisis. He stands out as one of the best California politicians, which I grant may not be saying much.
You are right that it's easier to note a correlation. But you are kinda standing on one side of the line regarding prohibition and that's the side of "regulated medical use", which is almost the same thing.

I could argue that they don't have weaker minds, they have neurodivergent personality types that predispose them to isolationist behaviors either like hermit-type or narcissistic delusions. You don't know what would have happened if they didn't do that, sometimes a religious experience just makes you pull the trigger on a change you subconsciously want, faster.

You don't know if your friend was going to do well in University, or become a rogue professional that wants to follow her instinct because of how smart she is and ends up building a career on bullshitting everyone. You don't know if your acquaintance was going to cheat on her husband and commit suicide. It could have happened, it didn't, something else happened because they decided to live their life differently after they took an entheogen, you don't know if it was better or worse and it was their probably conscious choice.

I have very close friends that left "normal life" after drug induced religious experience, like very close, from childhood, friends. I know how fucked up their lives were because we've been like brothers since we were kids or because we became super close as teens, they were fucked up. They were in school like you say or they were having what seems like a normal life with their girlfriends, but the scars of abuse on their minds were not closed. Yeah one is a shaman now and the other one is a monk and the other one is a mathematician, they are all completely isolated from reality and it's really hard to have a normal conversation with them. But they are happy and they feel well, which is what for me matters.
Your average is correct but the wrong metric. Austin has several times in the recient past got this cold, or so close as to be in any reasonable margin of error. When planning you need to ask about the expected range not average.

That is Rob Manning, an absolute legend! Here is an interview with him from a few years back: https://solarsystem.nasa.gov/people/2280/rob-manning/

If something is a function of time and no other variable, from a simplified model, it is constant at a constant time. If you've ever dealt with physics I'm sure you've encountered functions of (t,x,y,z) for one, which do not guarantee being constant for a constant value of time. That's the point I'm making: the value depends on time going forward, and the growth is the associated growth of human added value as time goes, being measured by what we use as currency.

If after taking psychedelics safely and guided by a community that does them responsibly they discover that they are predisposed to mental illness earlier than just waiting and getting symptoms because their brains deteriorate with age, then that's a good and not a bad thing.
Sure, I'm not saying nvidia would just decide to stop shipping tomorrow. However, if crypto is really viable and long-term profitable, it wouldn't make a ton of sense for them to give their potential competitors (e.g. anyone else who wants to mine) capital equipment at what would amount to a loss.

They could subcontract the operation of the mining equipment to third parties so they make a profit immediately selling the mining hardware, and skim as much mining profit as possible while their subcontractors assume all the risk.

(Just using nvidia as an example, but this model would work well for anyone making hardware that's capable of mining at scale).

Because the engine is not an interface. You can have then engine you want on any interface that supports it. I suppose the easiest way to play stockfish is to click "Play with the computer" on lichess.org, you don't even have to signup!

Then, you will find a /lot/ of GUI interfaces for your favorite OS (Linux, Android, BSD, Win/Mac...), and probably it will have Stockfish included.

As such, you don't have to download or build stockfish, basically any free chess app that you will find will make it available to you. I can think of no reason to make a free chess interface without Stockfish.

I would ordinarily agree, but to be honest the UI in the screenshot doesn't really look all that terrible. Not saying it couldn't improve to clarify effects, incorporate documentation and nudge the user away from making mistakes - but overall I agree with the grandparent post. Clearly the operator is supposed to have business knowledge of what those GL fields mean. I'd bet there are more experienced operators who would be frustrated and less productive if they were forced to use a dumbed-down UI where you couldn't just put the amounts you want in the fields they should go.

My decade-old Quickbooks software similarly lets me create GL entries and assign amounts to the accounts involved. If I let my $12/hr intern who doesn't know what they're doing use that feature and they post to the wrong accounts, then of course bad things will happen. Instead, he uses other more specialized interfaces (like you suggested) to enter things like invoices, bills, etc. We give children safety scissors, and expect adults to be able to handle the real thing.

I really do have sympathy for the employees involved, and strongly agree with your sentiments that software should be engineered for safety. But I encourage anyone else reading this and forming an opinion to click into the article and have a glance at the screenshot.
This is excellent... for Vim users. A lot of developers either are not willing or haven't gotten around to learning the complexities of Vim, and use other IDEs like JetBrains or Eclipse. This workflow won't work for them.
to add:

- 95%+ reduction in water usage

- no need for any pesticides because... boom no pests

- no need for any other treatments to reduce disease

- can be powered in any way

- does not need to have complex freight

Sure it doesn't "save space" if you make a ton of win/solar farms. Sure. But its not about saving space as much as solving a huge logistics problem, water problem, pesticide problem, and even the taste problem (food harvested recently will taste better than frozen food transported for weeks/months)
McDonalds is able to sell massive amounts of cheap food partial because labor is cheap. Forcing them to provide higher wages will result in higher prices, which will reduce their market viability and result in closure of some locations. This results in a net decrease in overall employment even though those employees are better compensated.

We see this play out at large scale in an economy like France, where even pre-pandemic the youth unemployment rate approached 20% (and now is more like 35%).

This applies equally to gig work: gig work is able to employ so many people because the services they provide are cheap enough to appeal to broad stretches of the population. Triple the prices of food delivery or uber, and the market will dramatically shrink.
Stepping outside this particular argument for a second, do you think it's possible to know the beliefs and motivations of "most people"? I don't. (Personally, I don't think very many people understand their own beliefs, much less that of others.)

You are not getting it - there is no real money.
All money in bank accounts is debt or fake money, all 99% of the economy.

Human error is a terrible concept, a crutch for bad engineering. Take the story of the VSS Enterprise (SpaceShip Two) that broke up back in 2014. It broke apart because the co-pilot hit a button four seconds early[1]. But if hitting one button four seconds early is the difference between nominal flight and falling from 15 kilometers up without a pressure suit that's really the fault of the person who designed and built the thing[2].

[1]: Outside analysis, sync up a video from an earlier flight with the failed flight, sync'd up to T-0 ignition. The successful flight the co-pilot Alsbury hit the button at T+13s, the fatal flight at T+9s. The fatal flight was the first test of a new engine, so there is some error in this calculation. Wikipedia claims it was 14 seconds too early, but I'm not sure how much I trust the source it cites.

[2]: The feathering device was a clever idea that the designer, Burt Rutan, had: if you fold the entire spacecraft in half while you are up in space then it will pretty much always be in a safe attitude for reentry and you don't need to have much maneuvering authority in space. But below Mach 1.4 there isn't enough aerodynamic pressure to keep the spacecraft from folding in half when you don't want it to (and then the spacecraft gets torn apart by all of the aerodynamic pressure that is there- not enough to keep it from folding in half, but too much to survive if it does fold in half). So they put in these big honking locks to prevent it from folding when you don't want it to. But now you have a new problem: if those locks prevent it from folding while you are up in space now you burn up in the atmosphere because you don't have enough control to keep the spacecraft oriented in a safe manner. So you have to undo the locks above mach 1.4 but before you have burned enough of your rocket fuel that you are committed to going into space: if you try and undo the locks and they don't go, you immediately stop the rocket engine and glide back down to a safe landing. So you have a very narrow window that the button has to be hit, and if you are out of that window you can either accidentally feather and die or fail to feather and die. At a certain point you just have to give up on your clever ideas and admit that they are not helping you.
Decriminalization is the first step to legalization. So, while we wont see psychedelic stores in CA tomorrow, we could see incremental regulation that eventually leads to literal LSD stores, killing the black market. Like cannabis dispensaries. Seems crazy to think that was possible 20 years ago, but I get weed delivered to me in Utah now, and get to work on the tech that enables that too.

ASICs requite a lot of up front capital to design and manufacture. ASICs also only really matter when prices are low and performance/watt matters. There's also limited supply too.

The popular gpu algorithm is ethereum, who's heading algorithm (ethash) is memory hard, so muhh of the performance relies on the speed of commercial DRAM chips so the difference between ASICs and GPUs are not as great. Along with the lower incentive as ethereum plans to move to proof of stake ASICs for ethereum are not as popular or common.
