Working on some inforgraphics tackling gender bias a while back, I was'accused' of producing data visualization art. I defended the intellectual rigor of my work, yet lost the argument - my 'accuser' turned out to be the curator of data visualization art at the Tate Modern. He won the argument by pointing out that the work, though based on hard data, was designed to evoke an emotional rather than an intellectual response.
Ao much philosophy is taught as if it were a niche area of literary criticism, rather than as raw materials for the creation of algorithms for intentional living, it probably is fair to regard much philosophy as if art, or even art criticism.

Technically, I don't think it's correct to say that purines cause gout; but that the inability to break down purines causes gout. What's the root cause of that? Kidney dysfunction, and a history of bad diet, bad exercise habits.

It could very well be that switching to a better diet that includes foods like sardines is beneficial and even a net positive to someone who is susceptible to gout even though sardines have higher levels of purines than other foods.

I never knew I'd like - or even crave canned herring but I have to say: it's absolutely delicious. Because of the essentially destruction and collapse of the ocean's fisheries, the majority of fish I eat these days is just canned sardines. Compared to say wild caught tuna, they're pretty sustainable (although again: the details are complicated).

I was trying to distribute a macOS app to a friend to test it out. The friend said their Mac told them the app was damaged and they should move it to the Trash.

Apparently I have to get a Developer account, obtain a Developer ID certificate, sign every build with this certificate, and upload the build to Apple to have them "notarize" the signature.

The alternative is to teach my friend how to run obscure commands in the Terminal or disable this "Gatekeeper" (yes, such an unironic name) feature altogether, which requires some scary steps such as disabling SIP. I could be wrong about that last part, but I don't own a Mac so I'm more inclined to just not build software for it.
Fine. Websites aren't responsible for the content. But make them responsible for promoting or curating the content, if they choose to do so.

Instagram just shows me all the stuff my friends post. That's it, as far as I can tell. It's great. Facebook amplifies some things and doesn't show me others. If it wants to be in that game, of distorting informational impact, it needs to take responsibility for what it's amplifying.

The actual title is, "Why are Climate models written in programming languages from 1950?".

I think the assumption that "old is bad" is the cause of many, many, many foolish decisions. Useless code rewrites, company reorganizations that are not significant improvements, and many other bad ideas hinge on this Worship Of The New. Why are we using an alphabetic system originally developed c. 1800BC? It's old, we should switch to new writing systems every 10 years because they're new, right :-)?

Older is not better. Newer is not better. Better is better. There's no point in switching something if the destination isn't better, and even if it's clearly better, it needs to be so much better that it's worth the switching cost.
I think that you underestimate the power of bullshit.

Absolutely.. most people complaining about this seem to want to purge the concept itself.. which is crazy to me. The concept is just that. It is not good or bad if you don't involve any human parties and practise it. It just describes that one or many entities control one or many other entities.

Culture has become oversensitive in a bad way. And IMO changing "master" to "main" won't help fight racism at all. It is just some useless showpiece action to render whoever it does as a good person or company.

Its ironic because it's actually the human at the other end forcing you to drop what you're doing and pay attention at their whim.

Hmm didn’t know Algo used WireGuard under the hood. That’s cool but there’s no UI for adding clients, so I would still have to ssh into the server to download certificates and there’s a lot of commands to run, so at that point might as well just install wireguard manually. Wish they had a docker image and bundled something like WireGuard-access-server.

Ask HN: How to think about crypto lending?
I've noticed a lot of ads related to crypto lending ("make your assets work for you") and recently noticed a remark in the comments section on HN where someone mentioned they avoid taxation by taking a loan on their bitcoin. However, I haven't seen much discussion about this practice, or much attention in media.

It looks like this is growing very rapidly (e.g. [0], though not sure how reliable this source is), so it seems significant to the evolution of the market. It looks like mostly people are lending to themselves (so that they effectively have leveraged/borrowed bitcoin) rather than lending to others.

Is this a tax loophole that makes bitcoin very attractive for people trying to keep their money "off-shore"? Is it a tactic to get more bitcoin for the same amount of dollars? Is this a sign that bitcoin is maturing and starting to back economic activity (after all, paper money also started as bank IOUs on gold)? I'm not sure whether to see this as a major red flag, or whether legitimate new markets are forming here.

>Current debate about inflation isn’t really about whether it’s likely: it isn’t.

No, inflation is guaranteed, in fact, a 3% yearly inflation rate is deliberately targeted.

I'm sure the writer meant "hyperinflation", still, say what you mean, and beyond that, having read the rest of it, it is full of weasel words and uncited or unexplained premises. Further, it does not actually address any of the ideas that the title implies it is countering. I'm just going to say it: this is a shit tier article.
I was quoting the question asked in the government document posted by the OP
Sure but you can at least try to test some hypotheses. Like they could have said we’ll keep the VC model but try different kinds of companies, or maybe try a bee model for funding classic SV firms, but it seems like what they actually did is a bunch of disparate and not necessarily related things that fit into their conceptual model of “indie”.

One that strikes me as especially confusing is giving the option to sell back their shares to the company at 3x value. Since VC is predicated on moonshot explosions of valuations that seems like a really questionable decision, maybe one you’d want to make in isolation and see if it attracts interest.

Another issue is liquidity. VC funds are famous for insisting on an exit in 10 years or less. That’s an imperfect solution to a real problem, which is that investors want the money back.

So, like what was Indie’s solution to that same problem? It seems like maybe the idea was to pretend that wasn’t a real problem rather than come up with a novel or innovative solution to that issue.

Again, maybe that’s a reasonable thing to do, but maybe you’d want to see if that model works. Perhaps you try a “long exit” model or some kind of dividend model.

What seems to have happened is they tried all these ideas and more at once.
So if china suddenly collapses in the next couple of years will you retract your hypothesis?
That’s not a FAANG company, but ok. You can write off your contempt for diversity, inclusion, etc. as a political view but it says more about you as a person. You’re likely difficult to work with and won’t treat your coworkers with respect. Why would anyone put up with that?
> has to pay rent or make mortgage payments.

One of these things is not like the others. Inflation benefits debtors at the expense of creditors. If I owe $500,000 on a fixed-rate mortgage, I'm thrilled to see inflation because it makes my debt cheaper to pay off.

The platform may publicly provide a forum for anonymous speech, but that doesn't mean it is anonymous. One of the most famous forums for anonymous speech is 4chan's "Random" forum, and even there prosecution was possible against a user. The site owner cooperated with investigators.

> We would all lose nothing and only gain.

It's really not that hard to see how many would lose a whole lot if this feature was available.

If side-loading was allowed and tons of users side-loaded pirated games I'm sure these users would gain, but would the developers? Wouldn't they call on Apple to stop this? I mean the headlines just write themselves: "Apple is complicit and profiting from piracy by selling phones on which it's trivial to install pirated games".

If people started installing random software they heard of on social media, how would the image of the iPhone be changed by the inevitable malware that people would install? "This new iOS virus steals your data and private photos".

What about all the spyware apps that would get side-loaded onto the phones of unsuspecting spouses? "Woman murdered by psycho ex who tracked her every move through her phone".

It takes a little bit more than "it's silly we would all only gain" to make this argument.
> If you are a competent SWE, you should be able to spend that time thinking about architecture, design plans, algorithms, data flows, UX, and on and on. Not to mention you can keep up on industry podcasts, industry news, and a bunch of other audio only shit.

I do all of that during my workouts and walks, or while cooking my family a healthy dinner. All of which I have time to do because I'm not spending 2 hours/day "putting along on the 101 at 20-30mph". On top of saving a ton of money and helping the environment, it's better for my health and my stress levels, because I'm not swearing at the 10th person to jump the queue at the exit. Before WFH started I was in far better shape than my colleagues who commuted from 1.5 hours away because they could get more house for less money.

Long commutes are a destroyer of health, wealth, happiness, and the environment. They steal time from our lives, with our children and families and friends - the only non-renewable asset we have.
Depends on the outcome you're looking for, I guess. From a sheer "managing the macro architecture of civilization" perspective it's hard to argue -- the speed with which China can do substantial things is staggering. They trade that off for individual liberties, presumably. Which makes one wonder if the liberties we enjoy are worth the bargain, on net.

Or perhaps the question boils down to whether "on net" is the right objective function.
Not that the current state of affairs is any different. I long for a transparent algorithm (in the sense of "clear set of rules") that determine whether you can get credit or not.

Where I am those are already gone. It is already "normal". There is still a lot of voluntary mask wearing, and the social pressure that comes with that, so not completely normal, and I'd still be subject to travel restrictions, but those two weren't in my definition.

I think it will be a lot sooner than you think, because it's already happening in a lot of places.
I agree. It's fun to just download a few apps and try them out. I enjoy installing new apps on my phone. I've heard people say "I hate installing apps" and these people are almost always Android users.
Does Science Contradict Faith?
yeah, similar, there are different words and phrases produced from "master" in Russia, and all of them means something related to professional or good work. Like "master-skaya" is "work room", and so on. So I was always thinking in this context referring the git branches.
I'm not sure if it's just algorithms. Twitter banned accounts for discussing why we needed to protest for fair elections because they "incite violence", yet Khamenei's tweet of calling for "eradicating" a people and a nation has been there since 2017.

Twitter banned accounts for challenging the effectiveness of wear masks because they are "anti-science", yet it didn't do a thing when people were challenging CNN/WHO/CDC's messages that wearing masks was unnecessary and would cause public panic in March 2020.

I'd support repealing of section 230 jsut for this level of double standards.

Someone living 1000 or even 100 years ago did not have the information we have.(eta: to design a society) Technology also lets us afford things that past societies simply couldn't do.

We sometime learn from evolved biology to make machines, but sometimes we can also see that evolution made a bad design. By learning from what has worked it's not too difficult to design an alternate society that will work just fine for decades or centuries.

Some societies survive by preying on others. Some are stable but prey on their own. I don't want a life in service to a society that evolved to be strong. I want a society that exists for the benefit of the people in it, and improves as we learn better ways to do things. (The current system does change but different structures could be much more adaptable.)
So I've a degree and masters in economics, before heading down the more statistical route. I can't say I found it compelling, and some of the issues waved away were too alarming for my liking.

The asset price inflation that's happening, and as a result the crazy investments (Softbank style) in search of some return are worrying. These are storing up problems for the future. I don't find the 'return to gold and it'll all be fine' any more compelling. I don't much care for the politics side, and advocating for no vs tons of spending seems to gloss over the very real problems with each approach.
KDE scaling settings are pretty obviously in the Display Settings page so I'm going to say that one is user failure.
Alright, replace "deterministic" with "not decided by us" then and your answer is in the part you quoted. What I was focusing on was not deterministic v random, it is whether the individual makes the decision to do something or not.

I’m kind of curious as to what the person is seeing, because every third post I see is an ad placed by Instagram, and for some of the meme pages you reach nearly that much saturation with sponsored posts.
I'm not certain what you are referring to with that article. I don't see much that inherently and obviously supports your assertion.

In fact it references the same book I mentioned earlier, which clearly talks about the lack of such systems in early societies. And of course, such societies dominate human history.

If you want to talk about more modern well-recorded history, again I turn to the book mentioned. And there the simplest summation I can come up with is "yes, but no."
