Spain (I'm spaniard) is passively catholic. Catholic church is everywhere, but you will struggle to find people less than 60 year old going to Mass.

Except for the typical extremes, people here has, generally speaking, a "live and let live" mentality. For example, the latests polls show over 70% of people pro-euthanasia and only 15% against it. Another poll shows that around 75% of the people declares themselves catholic. So when you picture a "Catholic Spain", imagine a lot of people that were born into a religion, they recognize themselves as catholic, but couldn't care less. This is a good place to live your religion or atheism in peace.
Those FX series had a really bad reputation at the time, but it seems the extra cores have helped them age better than might have been expected. My old FX 6300 is also in a Linux box now hosting a Jellyfin server and it does quite well!

I think this is a useful idea. They have platforms already, and we give them platforms on TV and in papers.

Unfiltered access to their hyperbole seems to be a net-negative.
Basically, we know that governments and leaders are going to punish us for taking sides in political fights. So we are going to pretend that the side we took is supported by the "public"

Wait, your bank's drive-through is staffed? Every drive-through at a bank I've seen is just an ATM.
No doubt.
We're sure there will be better ways, and we'd like to help in getting there.
Rather than die on that battlefield before we've built something meaningful, we're working to help at least solve the immediate need that companies face.
We're fans of refactoring rather than blow up and replace right off the bat, with the thinking that it'll be a lot easier to change things from a position of relevance and experience.
Personally, I'd love to move to a more protocol-based approach that has verification behind it.
Theres a lot of talk about terminal illnesses and people dying in pain, but my Grandad would most certainly choose to die with dignity now and he isn't in a situation like that at all.

He talks about it a lot, he's had a good life and now he's essentially decrepit. He can't really hear anything anymore so conversations are frustrating, he has no balance so can't really go far, he gets tired even just being taken for a drive, he gets sore sitting in front of the TV all day, he gains weight because he's not moving so he has to be careful about anything he eats. he has a type of dementia that thankfully hasnt stripped who he is, but has removed his ability to complete complex tasks or really anything more than a few steps. So now he can't use a laptop anymore, he can't login to any of his banking, he can't text or really use a mobile phone at all.

When he asks me what the point is I have no answer for him, he's lucky in many ways as he's got enough money to live in a comfortable flat, and cover all of his bills, etc. But he's not happy, and is sitting in that chair waiting, many times wishing, to die. He essentially played the role of my father when I was growing up, I used to utterly dread the day he passed, but now I can't help thinking I'll feel relief for him more than anything.

I see no reason why we shouldn't be able to gather the family, take him to place where we can all say our goodbyes and let him go on his own terms, with dignity.
It's not really compelling to a jury though. Digital signature verification is just a magical computer saying something that the expert witness fails to explain very well.

Meanwhile, the jury can look at 200 bill receipts and see the age of the paper for themselves. Like, yeah it could be faked, but it means they were planning on faking something for 20 years.
Alacritty is cross platform and the terminal I use over iTerm on MacOS as well (it’s so freaking fast). It doesn’t have tab/windows management stuff but works great with Tmux.
Having critiques of something, or lamenting the subject's complexity, surerly doesn't undermine your position as an expert on something? To think the converse would, I think, steer you toward bad experts.
> along with the consent of the patient and/or family responsible for care decisions, doesn’t seem that complicated to me

Dead people can't testify. If someone is euthanized, how do you show--after the fact--that the consent wasn't coerced? This is a problem that can be solved. But it is thorny, complicated and thus difficult.
I know lots of Rust newcomers have an expectation that the standard library should be all they need, and dependencies should be avoided, but that's not Rust. In Rust dependencies are good, you're supposed to use them. If something can be implemented well outside of std, it should probably remain outside std.

The problem is that a standard library is a heavy burden for a language, and a huge risk for its longevity (think 40 years from now). It promises that the first stable release of any feature will work forever, and never change. It's an unrealistic promise for anything non-trivial.

In other languages it often played out like this:

1. std added a feature,

2. it turned out that it wasn't the best API, but it couldn't be fixed,

3. people fed up with the poor std API wrote a replacement,

4. everyone has to be reminded "don't use the std version, use the replacement instead" forever.

Rust jumps straight to the point 4.
I would gladly call them names all day long. And I have, but not there.

"Paternalistic" strictly (and accurately) describes an assertion whereby society's coherence depends on benefactors in glass towers and Greek revival plantations.

Not only is their presumption false, it's insulting in a specific, elitist way. There is nothing generic about the priors embedded in this listicle to lead them to conclude that the media must bolster the poor, downtrodden CEOs to keep society's glue from dissolving. I took the high road here, they did not.
Perhaps the most interesting consequence of this game design is that you can edit the past, changing a single decision while leaving your other choices in place.

For example, it's possible to go back to the beginning of the input box and edit your character selection while keeping the rest of your gameplay in place.

Seems like this could have a lot of potential as a puzzle game mechanic.
>...there is an argument to be made that a person whose life has ended has no experience to consider, leaving an absolute moral/utils cost.

It's hard to say, honestly. Like, for all we know, if brain activity ceases to be measurable, then there is no experience. But how do we actually know that? One cannot know what the experience of death is like without actually experiencing it, just like we can never truly know what the living experience of others is like. I think there is much around the topic that we'll never truly be able to understand, simply because it's not a state we can enter and leave at will. The closest we can get to something like that, in my understanding, is a deep experience with DMT (or the more potent 5-MeO-DMT).
That responsibility of doctors/psychiatrists to evaluate the case for allowing an individual's choice to die must weigh heavily at times. I remember the case from two years ago of a teenager who, because of an awful childhood, was mortally depressed and chose to die. UK news report [1].

> Here's the problem: Amazon, Microsoft, and Google are already able to charge something approaching monopoly rents because they have built a moat that others can't dream to cross.

Even if that was true and they acted like a coordinated oligopoly rather than actively competing, including on price, more monopolies in adjacent markets make things worse, not better, for everyone (customers especially) except the additional monopolists.

> If you are Redis, your hosted product, whose core you developed, is less competitive than that of the cloud providers who didn't contribute anything to the project.

Yes, that F/OSS licensing advantages the firms that have the best infrastructure for monetizing services has been widely observed since it was just Free Software because OSI didn't exist yet, before cloud dominance that was mostly about professional services. And, yes, proprietary (and sometimes source-available) licenses which don't deliver the value of open source to end users have always been the “solution” to that.

What's novel recently is a bunch of firms ignoring well-known facts about the economic incentives around F/OSS, trying to build rapid-growth startups around F/OSS with no plan at all to address the strengths necessary to monetize F/OSS, then whining about the well-known advantages of established firms to pivot to proprietary licensing, then having the unmitigated gall to pretend their proprietary licenses provides the customer benefits of F/OSS licensing (which center on the fact that F/OSS doesn't create a vendor monopoly), despite the fact that not providing those benefits is central to the business reason for which they have adopted the proprietary license.
We do give people the option to be euthanized, they just have to commit a really horrific crime first, and it make take a while for all the paperwork to go through after that, but eventually you will get euthanized.
This seems to be the case for other embassies of other nations too (I am an expat). But I do get the feeling that if you have moved to another country then you probably are more able to access services online (buying the ticket to get there in the first place is a start) than some 90 year old 'back home' who's never left the village.

I guess the flipside is your needs may be more complex (passport / family / citizenship issues always are) so having someone competent to talk to on the phone is necessary.
I wrote a similar thread a while back while helping my 70-year old neighbour:

"""One example of the insanity:

"Enter mobile number to register" OK, 0793...

"You already have an account with that number"

"Enter mobile number to get recovery details" OK, 0793...

Turns out you have to put 44793..."""
> I would argue that a lot more good has been done by individuals that decided to "do something about it" that big government initiatives.

You couldn't be more right.

"It's amazing to me in a country as rich as ours", "In a city with the wealth of San Francisco", etc... Check your calendar. How many of us did something, last year, anything (beyond voting/picketing/"complaining") that directly helped this problem?

Hell, how many of us gave even $100 to an organization helping the homeless? How many of us even did the basic research to find a suitable organization to donate to (rather than just tossing that money at a charity run like a big government initiative)? There was a movement a while back to get people used to the idea of spending $4.00 for an app (you spend that much on a cup of coffee!). We have tons of government initiatives to help with poverty/homelessness. Upset that too much of our taxes are spent on war? Your donation is tax deductible. So tossing some money at a homeless support organization results in you indirectly re-balancing things. Less of your money supports things you don't and the money you've moved away from things you "do support" is being used more efficiently toward that support.

Well the problem with this in Canada is that it's not a binary decision between paper forms from an office and submitting a web form; there are a bunch of in-between technologies that also need to be supported: fax machines, order paper forms via an automated telephone system, file by phone, fill out a PDF, print and mail - how do you decide when you can phase out any or all of these?

Also counter-intuitively, a physical office you can visit or phone number where you're on hold for an hour plus, and need to access between 9am-4pm, M-F could actually be less accessible for a huge portion of society compared to 24/7 web forms. If I don't file required forms because I can't get to a government office who's accountable for that?

In re: "complexity" of Rust here's something relevant and interesting that was on HN front page the other day:

"Why I rewrote my Rust keyboard firmware in Zig: consistency, mastery, and fun" https://kevinlynagh.com/rust-zig/

In absence of good metrics for the kind of complexity we're trying to discuss I think we kind of have to rely on these sorts of first-person subjective reports from the field.
My gut says that you are right.

I think the election fraud nonsense suggests it might not be that simple. Bad actors in positions of power are abusing these services to the point where we have real conflict occurring.

How do we account for these edge cases?
Popularity was and continues to be heavily disputed. The citizens voted for democracy and got yet another backslide to autocracy.
It's all good! It was proposed, but decided to have an RFC first. Your point is still correct, just wanted to make sure to clarify this detail :)
Just check the IMF page on "Conditionality"[0].
Check the "Prior actions" sections and see "Elimination of price controls" there.

Also see this video[1] about Vietnam, around halfway through it explains pretty well how it works.

Edit: I realize now you asked about the "forced privatization of industries" sentence. That's thoroughly stressed accross all IMF literature, and you can see it happen in pretty much every country that takes IMF "aid".

No, just understanding the reality of the world we live in and what's possible and impossible in it. Labour advocates in the US are now fighting for $15 minimum wage, not $50, because they too understand that's the maximum they can possibly convince the congress to pass. Any more than that and people would laugh to their face.
Yes, but the hypothesis in the paper (soldier crabs can implement logic gates) is _also_ of the latter form, despite its positive construction. Being usable for a logic gate implies an element of control and repeatability, and unlike a statement like "the sky can be blue" a point observation doesn't suffice as proof.
I'm not sure there's enough information to make a judgement either way. I'm sure I'm "guilty" of opening a package handed to me at my front door without checking who it was addressed to.

I don't think anything about this article implies that there's no non-tech way to utilize these services after this change. Most governments have laws banning that anyway.

A quick browse of boston.gov shows at least all forms I could immediately find have an in-person alternative listed on the website.
Oddly, until recently they were. It only became different recently and obv xkcd popularized the idea, but if freedom of speech isn’t associated with freedom from persecution it’s not really free speech.

Everyone in the world has the right to free speech because they can literally talk and say whatever they want, but if the society that speech is spoken in doesn’t agree to allow that speech to be spoken freely (as in beer) it’s not a truly progressive society. Apparently the brits have been struggling with this for years[0]

But they have to control a wallet to send the transactions anyway, which could be tracked in the same way?
Sometimes the best form is no form at all. The Washington state license/registration process was incredible, just show up with the documents and they ask some questions and type the relevant stuff in for you. Compare to the ridiculous waste of time and paper in NY where you have to arrive with about half a dead tree of redundant information that they just retype into a computer anyway.

As a more general point, living in multiple states shows you how much bloated government is a complete waste of time when other states just don't do it and get along fine - other examples are car inspections and even income or sales tax.

Did the city decide to simply eliminate any of the functions the forms you found did instead of moving them online?
Right up there with the most experimental $5 I've ever spent, thanks & funny idea.
Moving the forms online makes it easier even if the person using the system is still the office clerk.

Sure, they'll have to fill the form themselves, but it is already online. So it is one (main) workflow regardless of who does it.

My partner works in geriatric care, I doubt you realize how many old people are lonely and would take this way out if they could. But that's not what this law does right, this gives people who are suffering intolerably an option to not suffer any more.

Hypothetically? You could make a computer-based trading card game, where you must own the NFT to play the card in-game.

The advantage to the game maker, over just storing ownership in a SQL database, would be making it more like physical collectable cards (with 'limited printings' and 'first editions') that some chumps will pay six-figure sums for.

The direct advantage to the player of owning the NFT would be playing the card in-game, and the benefit of an NFT over normal digital items would be letting them "invest" while feeling assured them the game maker wasn't 'printing' more cards.

Obviously, a lot of people aren't interested in 'collectables', pay-to-win, skins/hats/lootboxes and so on. I'm certainly not. But there is an existing market for digital hats, baffling though it may seem, so there's precedent for people trading in-game digital items for real money.
I often use "table saw" when making this sort of analogy, because there's even a more direct comparison: https://www.sawstop.com/
It's a wider net relative to reading only the mainstream US press (defined here as centered around NPR/CNN/NYT). Also, all of those strongly identify as leftists, just of a different strain than is currently dominant in the US media and Democratic party. Combining them with the mainstream, I feel like my real lack here is reliable conservative voices.

I'm lacking good progressive voices that I trust. Rather, I trust many of them to give me a sense of where the Democratic party in the US is heading, but not to reliably report the strengths and weaknesses of their position. Freddie Deboer might be the closest that I come, and while he's arguably very progressive, he's not typical. Any suggestions?

Edit: For non-media bloggers who touch on social issues, I'd suggest Andrew Gelman and Scott Aaronson as being good progressive voices. For media, I should have added Matt Taibbi, but he may also be in the very liberal but not-exactly-progressive camp.

Now that's just not true. What trump did was a relatively minor infraction compared to what is happening in some countries around the world. Like it just doesn't come close on any scale.

The realization here is that people at twitter have an opinion on US politics, and are generally oblivious to the rest of the world.

The waters they're in would've been way less hot if they just did nothing and claimed neutrality. In that light shedding their neutrality was a very conscious decision by Twitter.
