For junior positions WFH can definitely be sub-optimal but in my eyes it also trains the juniors to over-communicate when they are stuck or are in a need of a coaching session. It's a way to distinguish the people who are way too shy for their own career good.

I started at "piracy is theft", eventually switched to "piracy is too complicated an issue to be labeled as black or white", and now I've settled in "actually, I'm okay with most of it".

The typical example: the music industry says "copying a CD is stealing from the artist", but plenty of small artists would counter-argur that a. the music industry is the one getting the money, not them, and b. they would prefer you to pirate their songs and make them popular so they can actually make money with more concerts.

In my opinion, piracy is bad when it hurts small producers (which tends to be the case with books) and actually good when it benefits society in detriment of some giant corporation. And if said giant corporation invested millions into laws that restrict people's access to their own culture (with Disney at the top of that list), I will actually encourage it.

I see this as siding with society instead of corporations. I know that this is not an universally accepted view, but I just bring it up to point out that there is more to piracy than "yes, it's theft" or "no, it isn't".

Yes, that’s enormous and you’re forgetting that a huge chunk of that already is income. You mentioned GDP in an effort to downplay the the enormity of the size. That’s every transaction for a good or service. That means to pay for this, not only would there be an extra 20% on income tax for everyone, but there would be a 20% federal sales tax on everything (including homes, surgeries, tuition, etc).

“Redistribute from workers” is a cutesy way to make it sound like it’s just coming from some excess cache reserve. No such reserve exists. For the numbers to work out, this needs to come from the middle class’s income as well as the rich. There isn’t enough wealth, let alone income, at the 1% level to even scratch the surface on these proposals.

So is your critique that the tech is just in its early stages of development and hard to use for non-techies right now? Or are you seeing some reason it can't eventually become as easy to use as the internet, even though that was also really complex and hard to use in its first decades?
Either I'm built different than other people (and so is the other commentator) or this is wrong. I used a blood glucose monitor to see how my body actually reacted to what I ate. Besides, even if true, it doesn't matter. What most people seem to misunderstand is that the body simply doesn't react the same in ketosis. On keto I could eat a meal and my insulin levels didn't change much, unlike off keto where it is s constant up and down no matter what I eat. In other words in ketosis the spike if I eat an apple is way less than if not in ketosis.

Edit since I can't reply to the reply:

>the idea that carbs = fat

That is the most stupid thing I have ever heard. No-one eating keto have ever said that or they would only eat candy.

And yes you can look it up but insulin level index is only like 1/10 of the story. The fact is still that if a vegan eat an apple the blood spike is higher than if someone in ketosis does. Higher spike = hungry faster, which is the whole point of keto. 1 calorie from non-fat != 1 calorie from fat.

Yesterday marked six months that I have been > 99% carnivore. My labs also are greatly improved including putting my diabetes into remission, with blood glucose beneath prediabetic levels.

Perhaps our common benefits are as much from the foods that we no longer eat as from those we do eat.

I was raw vegan for six months a decade ago. I bounced off of that with health problems including brain fog at that point. At the moment carnivory feels more sustainable to me. Possibly the "raw" part is a difference between our experiences.

I don't see how any other hypothesis can even be considered until this is controlled for. How many people diagnosed as autistic today would have, had they lived in the past, been considered as having mental illness or intellectual disability? Would those who are high-functioning even be diagnosed as having anything at all, or just thought of as eccentric or a little touched?

Upon all of us there still lies ‘the curse of Cromwell.’ ”

My point was, can't it both be "it's theft" and "I'm probably okay with most of it"? We treat "bad" as this absolute, "all bad is Bad!" but really no, there are all kinds of degrees of bad. Theft is bad, but IP theft is probably a lot less bad than armed robbery, for example.

I just don't get the conflict. I entirely agree with you otherwise.
Your post is really confusing.

S230 says that a company won't be held responsible for some (but not all) user generated speech on their website. But it also says they do not lose those protections if they moderate that speech. The people who made the bill realised that companies need the ability to moderate content, and so they built it into the law.

The vast majority of Internet users do not want dumb pipes and unmoderated content.
How to Win at Ecommerce Personalisation
It's like if I told you I lost my 1-year-old credit card and suddenly 3 months later I saw notifications of $10k in extra charges and therefore think someone is abusing it, and now you're objecting "but you don't even tell me what month this happened in??", "but how do you know those notifications were legit?!", "how many notifications did you get normally?!", etc...

At that point, you're throwing common sense out the window and insinuating the other person is either just stupid or deliberately lying to you, whether you explicitly say this or not.
Here is a later text version of this lecture: Noam Chomsky - Science, Mind, and Limits of Understanding. https://chomsky.info/201401__/

I tried to edit for brevity and summarise the main point here, too:

Mechanical philosophy originated with Galileo and his contemporaries, held that the world is a machine (device with gears, levers, and other mechanical components, interacting through direct contact) and could in principle be constructed by a super-skilled artisan. The way they viewed these machines is similar to the way we view computers today (compare with "we live in a simulation").

Galileo insisted that theories are intelligible, only if we can “duplicate [their posits] by means of appropriate artificial devices.” The same conception, was developed by Descartes, Leibniz, Huygens, Newton, and others.

Descartes recognised “the creative aspect of language use” (and thought), a capacity unique to humans that cannot be duplicated by machines. The use of language is: 1) innovative without bounds, 2) appropriate to circumstances but not caused by them, 3) can engender thoughts in others that they recognize they could have expressed themselves.

Descartes invoked a new principle to accommodate these phenomena, a kind of creative principle (mind), res cogitans, which stood alongside of res extensa (body) (Cartesian dualism).

Newton showed that to account for the properties of matter (or res extensa or body) it is necessary to resort to interaction without contact, therefore matter is not a machine, and we do not have any definition of matter. The properties of the material world are “inconceivable to us,” but real nevertheless.

Since then in science we do not conceive of the world as a mechanism (the world is a machine that we explore and map) but we construct intelligible (the one that a machine can compute) theories about the world.

In summary: we can not know what the world is but we build theories about it that a machine can compute. The world is not a machine - our mind is a machine.

Also in there Chomsky subscribes to cognitive neuroscientists C.R. Gallistel and Adam Philip King critiques of neuroscience (mind is not computed by neural nets, but mabe by some chemical reaction inside cells, maybe by RNA, which may provide Turing complete set of operations).

Do these books (or perhaps courses around them) contain a graduated set of exercises for understanding?

That's the thing that was so great about the MIT course, but it's been difficult to find that elsewhere.

In my country, at least, once upon a time, upper middle class people would use a person/business called "dhobhi" to wash and iron 90% of their clothes. Reasons included convenience, unreliable supply of water at home, low quality consumer detergents etc. For small communities, the dhobhis formed an oligopoly of centralized services.

When washing machines became available, people didn't buy them because they were expensive, unreliable, and required a lot of repair and maintenance. Ultimately, the washing machines became cheap, reliable, and low maintenance, and now most people use washing machines.

I think the analogy to github and personal servers is clear.

There are a lot of self employed that have freedom on how to do their work. We could see it as self-employed contribution to the future of society. Also raising new citizens with a diverse set of values & beliefs is exactly what I would want to see. It would be horrible if their was some kind of institution that would dictate the same kind of upbringing for every child. However, in the end parenting is really not a job even though it provides value to society. That doesn't mean it doesn't have to be financially supported just because it is not like the kind of work that typically gets paid.

Chomsky refers to Galileo, who thought that theories are intelligible, only if we can “duplicate [their posits] by means of appropriate artificial devices.” So in modern terms - compute.

This ignores a major point that the audience of that art does not need to be contemporary.

China successfully followed the same strategy, so the strategy certainly can work for large, non-island countries.

China had a few outbreaks (after Wuhan, obviously), but it responded to each one with quick restrictions on the affected location and mass testing of everyone in the region. That worked to contain these subsequent outbreaks.

As a result, China has been essentially CoVID-19-free for about a year now.
Maybe but if most vegans are not healthy then eating vegan is at best "healthy if..." which isn't any better than keto or other diets. Eating vegan is great but just like other non-normal diets it requires bloodwork from a doctor regularly.

>" Vegans showed a significantly lower mean serum iron level (p < .001) and vitamin B12 (p < .001). Wound diastasis was more frequent in vegans (p = .008). After 6 months, vegan patients had a higher modified SCAR score than omnivores (p < .001), showing the worst scar spread (p < .001), more frequent atrophic scars (p < .001), and worse overall impression (p < .001)."

Some of those cases are directly traceable to quarantined travellers, some aren't

One of those countries has been able to trace all cases in the last few months and makes extensive use of genomic sequencing. The leaks have all come out of hotel quarantine breaches. I believe that some Australian states that do not receive overseas travelers have not had a single case in months.

It may (or may not) not be feasible for bigger and non-island countries, although I suspect that the border closures will happen far more swiftly if there's another pandemic in our lifetimes.
This is very true. There is no denying that Chomsky and colleagues have contributed significantly to our understanding of the language. My comment is more in regards to the current day state of the field, which in my experience is overly driven by dogma. Science should evolve and improve it's methods, and sadly, the modern "generative grammarian" tends to live in the shadow of the glorious 80-ties.

The rise from protein in general is never anywhere near as drastic as from carbs, even the "healthy" carbs.

I've got some dumb questions about this whole NFT thing...

Is the artwork actually stored in the token or does it contain a URL that isn't guaranteed to always exist? I'm guessing there is no mechanism to change the link if the host should go down or stop hosting the content.

Are NFT's used to recognise a transfer of ownership of the intelectual property?

A different mission, but Jake from We Martians did a really great twitter thread[0] about what goes in to the mission length. I'll summarise the thread here (mostly just quoting verbatim):

Firstly, this is about why solar powered Mars missions (specifically InSight) do not have solar panel cleaning devices, but it touches on how missions can be extended and what thinking goes into that.

Robotic missions to Mars are competed like any other; they have to "earn" their chunk of the budget by being effective science missions at effective prices. This causes a very normal tension between "do a lot" and "don't cost a lot".

InSight in particular is part of the Discovery program at NASA, which technically has a cost cap of around $500M. Program managers thus do everything they can to reduce the cost without sacrificing science. You want to avoid taking instruments off, for example.

One really effective way to reduce scope is to shorten missions. This has two big benefits:

1) Every year a mission doesn't operate is a year you don't have to pay salaries for those who operate it

2) Hardware on the spacecraft can be made cheaper if it doesn't have to last

That second point is really critical.

The testing program you have to put stuff through doesn't scale linearly. A mission that lasts twice as long costs more than twice as much to test. It spirals fast.

In InSight's case, they also saved money by reusing a spacecraft bus design from the Phoenix mission, which was also designed for a short mission - just 90 sols in fact.

See the similarity?

So all of these reasons (staying under cost cap, reducing operation cost, reducing testing costs and saving money by reusing spacecraft busses) combined to drive a decision that InSight's prime mission is just 1 Martian Year (about 2 Earth Years), which it completed in November.

So the short answer to "why not add solar panel cleaning devices" is that they don't need them!

By the time the dust takes down the spacecraft, it will have completed its mission. It's an element of disposability, though NASA probably wouldn't characterize it that way.

Now, often the vehicles last longer than their prime mission. Spirit and Opportunity, for example, blew past their prime mission of 90 sols. All of NASA orbiters (ODY, MRO, MAVEN) have gone past their prime mission, too. Last November, InSight also surpassed its prime mission.

When this happens, NASA reevaluates the vehicle's health & cost against further science it can do, and decides to either re-fund or end a mission.

InSight got the funding, and so here we are making the best of that!

NASA isn't scrambling to save a mission hampered by dust they forgot existed. They're doing their best to squeeze out more return on investment for the taxpayer on a spacecraft that has already completed its mission!
