I have allergic rhinitis asthma which means I've lost my sense of smell and taste for months from allergic cytokine storm. My grandma took Budesonide her whole life and the side effect is she lost all pain-sensing in her skin (hit her leg on a stool and didn't notice she needed 80 stitches.

Economists have a terrible understanding of the importance of biodiversity if you use how we’ve set up our economy with too big to fail corporations dominating everything as the litmus test.
>You are restating what I said almost word for word — but still disagreeing. Somehow

I can elaborate. That you've elevated disinformation as a major societal issue that needs to be solved is itself a particular partisan talking point put out by Democrats to explain Hillary's loss in 2016. Trump never had the temperament to be a good president. He should not have been voted in and Hillary was a better candidate ... but he did get voted in because millions of your fellow citizens voted him in. But he was such anathema to the core Democratic base that it became permissible to brake every norm, break every rule and right, including gaslighting and lying, just to get him.

So underneath this 'concern' of yours is not a good faith attempt to tackle this problem objectively. You want a laser focus on your political opponents while you continue to turn a blind eye to the disinformation, misinformation, gas lighting and outright lies that Democratic party, along with mainstream media (which ostensibly became the PR department for the party) and Big Tech engaged in pushing one conspiracy theory after another, week after week after week for the entire Trump presidency.

Sure, but we were talking about being a consumer. In general, I would argue Postel's law: be careful with what you send, be liberal with what you accept.

Don't mess with the order yourself, but don't assume other tooling will respect it.
I find that comment insightful, as religion may have a part of "blame" for people who disagree with the practice.

However, other non religious system (communist USSR, post-revolution France) did or still do the same: they did run experiments on convicts or war prisoners. We all benefit from the science gained.

The big question is whether the greater good as defined by a religion or non religious belief-system can offset the perceived negatives - but there are clearly positive too: the prisoners mentioned in the article were condemned to death already. By volunteering, one survived:

> As a reward for his services, the prisoner had his death sentence commuted to life as a galley slave

Down the thread, people mention China.

Personally, I trust China CCP and I believe it is trying to inflict as little hurt as possible while maximizing the greater good for the whole society.

It is sad the idea of a greater good now looks quaint.

I’m imagining the robotic arm picking up the grease and applying it to its hinges. What, that is exactly what you are planning to do, isn’t it? Will it replace its worn body parts too, before expiration? It is the obvious next step, isn’t it? You are right, this is a billion dollars market.
In the video he makes this super weird argument

> How can a company learn how to find better and better ways to deal with things if it takes all of the intelligence of its people and diverts them from those big problems.

This is an argument for HR and IT, not against. If everyone in your organisation has to go out shopping for their own computer and set up their own sharepoint etc, they're all wasting their time doing something that should've been taken care of for them.

The problem isn't the existence of HR and IT, it's the dynamic of HR and IT as a set of interest groups - putting processes in place that make IT or HR's lives easier at the cost of productivity the other employees.

The only apology on that page is for playing a recording of a foreign language that contained some sort of homophobic slur. On the topic at hand, it has this:

We note that whilst there has been some dispute about the Israeli government’s responsibility for vaccinating Palestinians living in the West Bank and Gaza, those Palestinians who live in East Jerusalem, or who hold Israeli citizenship, are covered by the roll-out of the government’s Covid-19 vaccination programme.

That is, the Israel government only claims that a small minority of the Palestinians subject to its tyranny will be vaccinated. We may expect that claim will also turn out to be mostly false.
You are incorrect. Wirth Pascal has writeln, and in fact that is the only well-defined way to output a “newline”. There is no notion of \n or \r. (Gory details: when eoln(f) is true, the file variable f^ is supposed to be the space character!)
Google Pixel Car Crash Detection saved an unconscious man
I double-checked the numbers reported by the driver against doing actual writes to the file system and the numbers reported by the OS, and they match exactly when there is no other activity: writing a 1GB file increases the number by 1GB and a few kilobytes of metadata.

This is an incredible video. Hearing the pilot gasp for air while a) his wingmates yell on the radio and b) seeing the details on the HUD are amazing.

The airspeed goes above Mach 1 while the altitude drops from about 16,000 ft to 4,000 ft. The pilot sustains over 9G when the automated system pulls him out of the dive.

Wow!

Python behind the scenes #9: how Python strings work
Yep. The actual AGCAS annunciation is the pair of chevrons advancing from the sides of the HUD into the center, and the blinking cross and "FLYUP" indicates that the system has engaged.

For audio, there's a very noticeable horn during recovery, as well as a "Fly up" automatic voice announcement - that's a little hard to pick up due to overlap with a call from the formation leader, but you can catch it if you listen closely.
It may well be that they'll have said dispute and will then be forced to bring in an HR department to do that work. But they'll have gotten to where they are now a billion dollar company at all which is a real feat.

Or they might look at hiring a 10-20 person HR department and say "3 million a year vs a (theoretically) one-time 3 million judgment? We'll keep taking our chances"

It could be a great place to work or an awful place to work. It probably depends a lot on who you are and which manager you end up reporting to.

Your complete change of argument here is not much better than the reply you originally posted, as the first thing I wrote in that post is that I agreed with what you wrote about the article (but that it and the article are not the whole story), and the only point where I mentioned Texas was to say that the issues are not confined to Texas. There are lessons to be learned here, for all the affected states, about basing planning on the realities of the actual world. Inadequate preparation in multiple states does not somehow excuse any one of them.

You are now attempting to argue against, not what I posted, but an entirely imaginary reply.

At least it seems that it has finally dawned on you that the argument you presented in your first reply to me, which, in its entirety, was "Texas's separate grid dates back decades, and was driven by a conscious desire to optimize for the needs of manufacturing. It doesn't have anything to do with climate-change denial or the current governor" is utterly irrelevant, both to the energy infrastructure / climate problem in general, and my specific post - though it took ten exchanges in which it was explained to you, multiple times, why it is irrelevant, for you to get it. We will see if you will have the integrity to acknowledge how utterly mistaken your original reply was.

HR and IT exist today primarily for risk mitigation, not for the benefit of the employee.
Look at the first long trace in the top left sector. It is detached from the board. That is a rather serious manufacturing defect.
More education isn't needed. Specialized education tailoring to an individual's needs is what is lacking and somehow everyone decided college is that education, because companies refuse to fund training programs.
No, that would be the purpose of a judgement. This isn't a judgement, it's a settlement. To Epic, the purpose is to make this go away. To those suing, the point is take a small but guaranteed windfall rather than risk a lengthy and uncertain court process.
I did most of my programming in Delphi when I was a kid. Unfortunately, I then got stuck on it.

Any other language is either too slow or too unsafe.

Nowadays, I mostly use FreePascal, because so many people refuse to use non-open-source software, but FreePascal never caught up to Delphi. And there is no open-source ecosystem, probably because there is no standard package manager. Even if there are Pascal libraries, it is hard to find them or they become quickly unmaintained, so it is more economic to write everything myself. And then I could not find a job because no one is searching for Delphi programmers

Yes. Otherwise you tend to get keyword-based filtering or random filtering based on perceived "cultural fit".

You can work around this - Turbo Pascal's strings are essentially syntax sugar for

type string = record Length: Byte; Chars: array [1..255] of Char end;

You can use this to make your own string handling procedures, the hardest part would be passing arbitrary string literals but that could probably worked around too with conversion functions.

To stay ontopic, I completely gave up spreading the butter as it's stored in the fridge year round. Just cutting thin slices and laying them on the bread is ok.
Yes, but what I mean: he saw that the language was not expressive enough to handle a common and useful case. One should start to think about it, and not say 'oh well, since I am the language designer I solve it at compiler level'. I mean what if I want to write a function which formats things like writeln into a string (to allow for different decimal separators, or whatever).
Sounds exciting! is there a place to sign up for contributors?
I'm a little skeptical that the properties of palm oil that could raise the melting point of butter would survive the cow's digestion process. In any case, the experiments to prove the relationship should be almost trivially easy, right?

Mozilla went chasing Chrome, and lost almost all of its market share.

Chasing Chrome was a bad decision. When they realised it was, they should've corrected the mistake, but instead Baker doubled down on the wrong direction, breaking all fiduciary duties she has as a CEO of non-profit in the process.
I have a slightly different approach. While I concur in parts with yours, there are products from established brands which I prefer because I like their taste and/or tolerate them better.

This isn't even organic vs. processed/industrial food. There is just no outlet which has it all, so I have to shop around in different locations. Just Aldilidl would be too limiting for my tastes and needs.
Turbo Pascal didnt have that hiccup, only the original language.
Some years ago the dairy monopoly in Canada caused a schism in its conservative party because the dairy board people have so much power. What was set up as a guaranteed market for farmers has become an oligopoly of agribusiness. Quebec has this for maple syrup as well. It's corruption. Dairy quota discussions quickly become a proxy for the role of the federal government.

They say they maintain "good" prices for both producers and consumers, but the price inflation of cheese and beef has been absurd and cheese has become a luxury good.

What it means is that it is effectively illegal to start a dairy farm or a small scale cheese making operation. There is more enforcement against black market raw milk products than there is against meth dealers. The regulators insist it's to protect people from being poisoned, but it's really to protect the monopoly power and political sway. If you want to get a few cows and start an artisinal cheese business and grow it, you are out of luck. The city administrative classes hate rural people and they create and maintain these "safety" regulations to stamp out the culture. The country is so bland they have effectively succeeded. It's never just about butter. :)

> Eviction moratoriums in 2021 - a full year after the start of the crisis are nonsensica

The US economy is still heavily impacted by the pandemic, and entire sectors are dead or heavily damaged ( e.g. tourism, airlines, etc.). Unemployment is at 6.3%, which is significantly more than pre-pandemic (3.5%). Not to mention all the employed with reduced income ( e.g. restaurant staff, cab drivers etc.).

What do you propose should happen to all those that are still un or underemployed ? What is the bigger problem, millions of people on the streets driven to crime, or millions of property owners losing property and/or money?
That would be awesome if they did.
This is a semantic dispute. Our disagreement is on whether this is a dispute worth arguing over.

There are many other industry buzzwords like "object oriented" that don't match up with what the people who coined the term had in mind. It's a nuisance, but nothing to get worked up over.
It's fascinating that the main reason this is hard is that some of the human code is bad enough that it's hard to believe it's not GPT-2 output. (The first time this happened for me, I had to look it up to convince myself it's really human code.)

It reminds me of how GPT-3 is good at producing a certain sort of bad writing.

My guess as to why this happens: we humans have abilities of logical reasoning, clarity, and purposefulness that GPT doesn't have. When we use those abilities, we produce writing and code that GPT can't match. If we don't, though, our output isn't much better than GPT's.

That's the biggest problem on being Canadian, it's hard to find something to bitch about. When you live in a nice country all your dramas become pathetic.

Btw, Canadian butter is excellent, even some of the cheapest ones. I use the President's Choice brand and like it.
Dependency Confusion: Another Supply-Chain Vulnerability
Where do you think Free Pascal hasn't caught up to Delphi? AFAIK they're more the less the same with the main thing missing from Free Pascal is anonymous functions (they're in a separate branch though and will be added at some point "soon") and inline variable declarations (which wont be added because the Free Pascal developers feel that they aren't "Pascal-ish").

BTW Lazarus does have a package manager, just make sure you have the 'onlinepackagemanager' package installed in the IDE (should be installed by default with Windows installations but you may need to explicitly install it if you build from source).
I'm not the kind of person who throws electronics away, but, you know, there's a proven and reliable way to decrease the environmental cost: don't make your damn devices disposable. Design them to be taken apart and make consumable components easily replaceable by the end user. But I guess non-disposable devices don't make charts go up as much as disposable ones do.

Case in point: the M1 Mac Mini internals are half electronics, half air. They could've easily fit all kinds of slots and modular components in there, yet they deliberately decided not to.

I agree with pretty much everything you've said :)

I guess my gripe is more "Why does the world not work right" than "Firefox has done a stinker here".

And I suppose my reaction really should be "How can we work to give Firefox a leg up, while still encouraging it to intentionally fail many of the metrics most people care about".

It's a hard battle to fight. Don't suppose Google will implement these things that might hurt their user tracking businesses... yeah?... no?... no.

> thanks to the popularity of content blockers like Pi-Hole and uBlockOrigin

Unfortunately these are "block these please" which hurts all the big players for the tiny portion of web users that use them. Every time I've ever moved a feature in software I've written from "all except this" to "none except this", it has always failed spectacularly, at least for a few people. The fact that users will get an option to unblock the services they need is encouraging... the fact that they mention that users might see the dialog multiple times for the same service is not.

But yes, I will try to be hopeful - and you are right, the fact that Firefox does this kind of thing is a big part of the reason I use them in the first place.
