Yeah you said it best. RMS shouldn't be the head of FSF. I say it as someone who does't think he is malicious at heart. He's got a string of behaviours towards women that would drive them away.

Maybe someone should email him these classic papers on sexism in tech. They are old but still relevant. Seems like many here need to read them too:

Signing up for Wasabi resulted in a deluge of unwanted marketing spam, all written to be "cheerful and your friend"

Also, huge warning for Wasabi newbies so you are not surprised. This might wreck your wallet.

Your egress is capped at your total amount stored. You cannot store 5TB and have 6TB of downloads against that account. The front page is covered in 'No Charges For Egress' 'no additional charges for egress or API requests'.. etc. This is not written anywhere on the main marketing pages, only behind a small link.

Another important point is file deletion. You are required to pay for multiple billing cycles (months) of files. Be very cautious about this. Using it as a temporary bucket will incur significant costs, if you upload a file, YOU WILL PAY FOR 90 DAYS OF THAT FILE. It is almost certainly not cost effective to store files in Wasabi any less than long term. Deleting a file that you just uploaded will incur a deletion fee equivalent to 3 months of storing that file.
Using a salutation, and addressing someone by name is not a conspiracy to make people trust you. The things that you should care about are the banality of evil, and that no one believes that they've done anything wrong. I live in the Midwest and my job is to make low-impact CRUD applications for a small car insurance company. I would use the same salutation, because I have been taught that that is what I'm supposed to do. I wasn't coached in some session on how to trick people into thinking I'm their buddy - it just becomes part of the shared social vocabulary.
first thing i thought was some sort of supreme breeding app
Being “neurodivergent” isn’t a license to hurt people. Yes, it is a reason to refrain from punishing someone, because punishment requires guilt. It isn’t a reason not to take the steps necessary to protect others, such as not putting them in a position of power.

Example: it doesn’t make sense to punish a cat that eats your parrot, because that’s what cats do. It does make sense to lock the door between the cat and the parrot.
You could launch a separate kicker on a different F9, but that may be my KSP/BARIS talking.
Weird, it definitely includes them for me, in all six images and it's exactly like the parent said (some Intel, some AMD).

Maybe you are confused because Threadripper is at the top in some above the 5000 series?

AMD is killing it with the 5000 series, but it's just barely edging out Intel in these benchmarks. The whole 2x figure was a little absurd.
I was planning on deploying Backblaze for various remote backup projects. This post makes me look for alternatives.
I mean, yes, true, but it kind of misses the point: marketing doesn't ask you, they ask up. And we're just the BOFH pinheads who make everything so harrrrrd with our stupid "concerns."

IT can often be "we make someone else's bad idea happen," and that's because we simply lack veto power.
My most recent example is some SQL commands that were being executed on a nightly basis by another team against our database. Their code was sometimes taking more than eight hours to run, and this could cause timing problems where it took so long that it caused further processes down the pipeline to fail.

I took their exact SQL commands and wrapped them in my own scripting, and the simplified single-threaded version was executing in about fifteen minutes.

I went back through and added some explicit parallelization combined with wait commands to ensure that everything in that stage was complete before going to the next stage. That improved version now executes in around 600 seconds.
Not according to several studies shared by epidemiologists that are parents at my kids' school. The only place they saw spread from children was at schools in Israel early in the pandemic where kids were crammed close together when waiting.
I find it amusing that I can't tell whether you mean sexual harassment is dramatically more serious than not paying rent or not paying rent is dramatically more serious than sexual harassment.

Both examples - really all of the examples other than "selling drugs to children", which is from Breaking Bad - are taken from real-world conversations with people that basically said "What a jerk!" The person complaining about their non-paying tenant basically accepts sexual harassment as how the world works. The person (people really, it's a composite of a half-dozen or so conversations) complaining about the sexual harassers would likely find nothing wrong with a tenant skipping out on rent. Both are women, though a generation apart.
A related situation:

Hawaii outsourced some inmates to the mainland. One promptly had a heart attack, and the hospital treatment wiped out any savings.

Do you think the person that buys a Picasso is:

In my experience, people who have technical discussions are often blind to their own emotions and the effect that their words have on the people around them. In good this can be solved. In bad cases, people talk about "discussing technical issues" and "directness" as a shield for their poor behavior.

An example from real life: A student, Y, was having a problem with her CS lab assignment, and talked to her professor, Prof. Z. She described what she had done and he said, "Well, that was stupid." In his mind this was just something that you say about bad code you've written. However, he was a professor, and he was saying this about a student's code, and he didn't think of the incredible negative impact that his statement made on his student.

In real life, this interaction took the "good path". They had a conversation, he apologized, and he changed how he spoke to students.

The "bad path" (which didn't happen) is where he justified/defended what he said or minimized/ignored the student's feeling.

Everyone comes to these decision points over and over again in their lives. It's inevitable. We all hurt other people. If we always defend our actions as being in the interest of "technical discussions" or state other reasons why our behavior is correct, is it likely that we are simply good people who never say bad things? Or is it likely that we are ignoring/justifying our poor behavior, and failing to learn and grow?
I just don't agree with the symmetry you're drawing here. Pointing to a group of people and saying "I think they're engaged in a moral panic" doesn't make me part of an equal and opposite panic. If I were going around saying we've gotta ostracize the cancellers before they cancel us, that would certainly deserve some serious introspection - but I'm not, and neither is the original commenter.
I’d imagine it’s also due to our bipedal locomotion, our ability to carry water, our intelligence helping to pick superior routes, and yes we have a cooling advantage compared to most other mammals. Maybe slow vs fast twitch muscle fiber amounts too?
Probably less happy due to chronic fatigue and boredom of the IT grind
This is entirely contextual.

It's also possible to be both correct and diplomatic, and to criticize diplomatically. Failure to do so (often from a perspective that being right means one need not worry about diplomacy) is assholery.

Note that this is also somewhat self fulfilling. If you do end up being wrong, you can not admit that, as it would make your behavior inexcusable, so even when incorrect, you feel the need to fight and bully the people correcting you, in hopes that they go away.
Plenty of students who don’t show up to a single lecture
Darker Corners of Go
These are all examples where one party in the interaction has come away from it saying "What a jerk!"

I'm particularly partial to being right on the Internet rather than diplomatic, so I'll cop to being an asshole. But I wanted to make the point that different people have vastly different definitions of "asshole". Some people will recognize themselves in the examples; others will recognize the person they can't stand. Sometimes those people are one and the same.
yes, see GLUE or superGLUE benchmarks. It assumes the answers have not been scraped and included in the dataset though.
It seems to me that being fact-oriented, especially when preferring facts from authorities and institutions, tends to get a source labeled as liberal-biased.

Modern business vocabulary has shifted from "Dear Mr. LastName," to "Hi FirstName!". This shift happened first in more "trendy" places, although most everyone has already moved on to using informal language in customer relations.

I do agree with your point about banality of evil.
Sure. Even if someone else posted bad comments or broke the site guidelines, it doesn't make it ok for you to do that. If you don't see how your comments like

Let me put it another way. In a free market, any group is free to start a commune. In America, many thousands have been created.

They all failed.

People try it. After a few months, within a couple years, they tire of it and leave, and the commune collapses.

What that strongly suggests is communes are just incompatible with human nature.

I've had multiple friends in LA say (around November-January) that people were basically ignoring the mask mandate and having a bunch of parties anyway. Perhaps it's different now; this is before the huge outbreak and lockdown.
Yes, there are: https://www.facebook.com/legal/terms/dataprocessing
If they actually did what they are accused of then, yes, you should probably rethink that friendship. There’s some value in loyalty, but I don’t see a reason why that should include culpable behavior.

All Sides has an article noting the left leaning bias of Wikipedia, including references to five different studies. It also mentions how the cofounder of Wikipedia has called out the site’s liberal bias: https://www.allsides.com/blog/wikipedia-biased

Personally, I see it in articles on any topic that is controversial, particularly along the axis of the left-right divide in America. Wikipedia is a theater for activism/ideology just like every other space (like our work places) has been opted into the same war in the last 5 years or so. It is most apparent to me when I read an article about influential or popular figures who are moderate or right wing.
My fault for reacting to someone calling me pathetic. Silly reaction on my part. I will delete if you will permit.

I definitely periodically fall into these discussions and need to train myself out of them. Thanks for the cycle escape.
It would be interesting to see if something like this could improve efficiency in valveless pulse jets. Valveless pulse jets rely on different inertia in two air paths to pull fresh air back in one of the exhaust pipes to refill the combustion chamber.

Valveless pulse jets are loud and inefficient, but they're reliable, tolerant of manufacturing defects, and cheap to produce. Of course, acoustic effects providing the only compression above ambient pressure is going to fundamentally limit combustion pressures and temperatures, and thereby thermodynamic efficiency, but I think valveless pulse jets operate significantly below their Carnot / Brayton efficiencies.
> they don’t have the original data (it is owned by fb) to create the lookalike audience.

they have the original data of their own audience. So they can send it explicitly to FB (instead of FB sucking it from the page's pixel so to speak) for FB to build the lookalike audience which FB would do using the wide FB owned data.

There was no actual lockdown in any state in the USA, including California. There were instead these totally unenforced stay at home “orders” and mask “mandates” which people ignored with no consequences. It’s no surprise that the disease spread rampantly through all 50 states. I live in California and there was nothing stringent about the measures—while many people voluntarily followed them, they were routinely ignored by enough people to make them worthless.
Have you actually tried searching "Ship It" on a podcast platform?

There is absolutely zero chance that I can find the correct one without knowing what the thumbnail looks like.

I realized the above might sound a bit harsh. Sorry.

In fairness, if you didn't have to worry about where your next meal was coming from, it might be easier to not want to violate your ethics to get ahead in life. This is not an endorsement of socialism, rather, a defense of criticism of capitalism.
What’s seen clearly? The comment asserts a lack of morals and takes comfort in an imagined crowd with him. The GP does imply he thinks what he does is immoral. It’s on him.
I think there is a clear distinction. People have a right to live above insane persons freedom. TS people have a right to freedom above people's inconvenience to hear curse words. Law balances these kind of things all the time, that's why we don't slave people when they own money anymore, to put one of many examples.
The fact they existed at all makes the point that the army discipline was forcibly applied, including executions for cowardice. Even just a few executions gets the point across to the troops.
Understood. No real reason to just come here to gloat. Will not approach these topics in future.
Weirdly I think taking it to the extreme made your point somewhat worse. Something like theft versus kleptomania is just a punishment versus treatment scenario, but I would definitely perceive someone who commits an unprovoked murder to inherently require psychological treatment, even if they don't meet the requirements of an insanity defence.

But I do agree with the idea that letting someone off the hook for all consequences on account of a mental illness isn't viable. That makes things a lot harder for neurodivergent individuals, but that's why we should have extensive support programs and provide resources to help them cope with the expectations of general society.

It's a tricky problem, because to meaningfully distinguish between someone who is mentally incapable of following a law and someone who is capable of doing so but systematically elects not to, you are functionally deciding which humans do and do not have free will on an individual basis. I think most people would believe that either all humans have free will, or no humans have free will, not somewhere in between, so this is a scenario that is uncomfortable to pretty much everyone.

It's interesting the degree to which people will claim his quotes were "taken out of context" or "mis-represented."

Some of the quotes, I suppose you could be charitable and read them as more of a discussion of the logical flaws in language, but it many cases, as is the one above, the quote is so obviously, hilariously heinous, and the mentality behind it so obvious, it's hard to understand why people defend it.

"It's not sexual assault if I thought she was game and didn't use physical force" is such a pedantic defense.
I'm not sure if this is a serious comment, but I'd think professors generally aren't in a position to know their students' standardized test scores (never mind whether they'd care).
