I’m reminded of the Mark Twain essay, The Awful German Language where he says:

“In German, a young lady has no sex, while a turnip has. Think what overwrought reverence that shows for the turnip, and what callous disrespect for the girl.”

Despite its age the essay* is well worth a read for native English speakers struggling to learn German.

I'm writing about <MenuSelect<User users={..} /> and not about Svelte. I don't know anything about Svelte except what I just learned in the article. I just don't like the syntax of <MenuSelect<User> /> and favour <MenuSelect /> instead, because Typescript will inherit it's generic type from users={...}

Yes, I have spent hundreds of hours in comparing video encoder results, but that's beside the point. One don't need to have done that to be able to tell your experiment is flawed.

All you have is literally one datapoint, 970kbps h264 has "no visible difference" compared with 800kbps h265, and I believe that. But maybe 800kbps h264 also doesn't have visible difference from it. Maybe there is just not much difference to notice from 500 to 1200kbps, for your specific video.

Again, my point is your experiment has too few samples (literally 1 pair). Using that to conclude anything is the exact opposite of "scientific" method. I never say "h265 isn't better than h264" or "your result is wrong"; just your result doesn't prove the former.

If you insist to use just one sample, you could at least use the same bitrate (2-pass if you want to have better rate control) and say "hey, the h265 one is visibly better!", and that would be more convincing.

There is no need for a loop hole. A president can do plenty of illegal things without consequences already. Incrementally do it while the public becomes numb to it, or worse, while vocal supporters becomes more nad more entitles, and you get to a dictatorship.

That statement was what caught my interest in this piece.

What is the "much evidence" which the author refers to? I'm genuinely interested; if anyone here knows of any such evidence, please, tell us! What is it?

My personal experience is the exact opposite; I have not personally found closed-source libraries to offer better quality in general. Of course, there is a lot of junk out there which is open source. But most of the small number of rock-solid, tried-tested-and-true code libraries which I am aware of are open source.
Nationwide tells 13,000 staff to 'work anywhere'
> This does not mean that they are not strongly correlated to IQ.

It does not mean they are related or that they aren’t, which only suggests you are missing the point: selection bias.

> You could also spend 5 seconds Googling the question and find that that this is not exactly an untrod ground in academic literature.

It has been studied exhaustively. The relation between IQ and academic performance is poor according to research from the APA in addition to the personal opinions of people who perform college selection professionally. That correlation is better than a random guess but isn’t anything close to alignment.

People, despite the evidence, need this to be true. After all it is a money making industry. Standardized college selection tests are like tax preparation, an industry that can be easily eliminated by a more simplistic unbiased and more effective tool. With enough effort to the contrary the arguments begin to sound like a self-sustaining fraud built around a fictional necessity and a bunch of bandwagon fallacies.
In any given geographic region, the concept of an operating system or a platform, in and of itself, is of little importance as a clear majority of the smartphone users are not computer- or tech-savvy. They wouldn't have the slightest idea what you're talking about. It doesn't have to ring a bell with them.

As a lay passenger, I wouldn't want to or have to know what planes are made of or how a flight management system works. That's not my business. Think of it from a user's perspective.
I know it sounds a bit dramatic, but I would really like it if people took at least "a bit" of the underlying meaning of a specific phrase used in the ancap community. "Tax Cattle". It's been a really good way for me to conceptually explain quite a few of the actions taken by governments around the world during this pandemic. It's a sort of weird hybrid relationship between "protector" and "farmer". More leaning to the latter judging by how willing officials are to take "calculated risks" with people's lives so as to maintain business, work and normal day to day functioning of the cities/countries. "Freedom" of the people only being an afterthought and something we still don't quite have back yet.

Thanks! Great question.
The seconds vary a lot on a task, model and input basis.

For example, if you do something quick like text vectorisation on a couple of sentences then it is less than 100ms per call.
That would be 10,000, 50,000 and 200,000 calls (0.0005, 0.0002, 0.0001 per additional call) respectively.

On the other end, if using GPT-2 Large to generate around 40 words then that takes around 2500ms per call. Giving 400, 2000 and 8000 calls (0.0125, 0.005, 0.0025 per additional call) respectively.
Its better than what it replaced (SAML & XMLSignature), but that's such a low bar.

Hence the defense'd be my proof of the pudding.
Sea Cleaners: The Manta Innovation
It's a travesty that the EFF is linking Selam G.'s blog post as evidence of RMS's poor behavior. That article grossly mischaracterizes RMS's statements and makes it sound like he defended Epstein, which he didn't. This means that the author of this statement didn't bother to read RMS actual comments on the Epstein-Minsky issue, or that he linked Selam G.'s hit piece on purpose. Either way, this portrays EFF as an organization that doesn't care about truth. Also, I would've assumed that EFF, an organization that has promoting free speech on the Internet as one of its stated goals [1], would be against mob justice, but apparently these days they are more concerned with petty virtue signalling.

I definitely think that's a case of throwing crappy over-priced offers onto the wall and seeing what sticks. Just like crappy blog-spam, you never know when some fluke of the search algorithm will redirect some poor unknowing fool to your page or product and they are desperate or uninformed enough to buy whatever it is you are selling.

100% the fault of Amazon or whatever marketplace this is. Right now we should be having a rich taxonomy and unique product database that links all versions of the same product together so that I can click: "Chewy Dog Food 5kg" and get all the sellers offering it. Then proceed to sort by price, filter out the suppliers that look dodgy, add said suppliers to a "fake chinese product spam list" personal black list, and proceed to buy the cheapest original version of the product.

I am still on Xperia X and since last fall I cannot even update Firefox any more. The few commercial apps I did try like my bank say they won't run on a rooted phone.

The models with the newer kernel/Android had their own share of issues what I read from the forums. So I did not feel any urge to upgrade to a hardware that does not fit into my pocket.

Of course the blame is on the kernel misery for phone SoCs, Google de-facto monopoly accepted by companies and governments publishing apps. So I could say I have a great phone and all the others are wrong...

> Hint for parents: if your kid never wants to play with classmates and prefers to read, it is not a little geek, it is getting harassed at school.

This is the first time I see the connection presented that way... But I'm not sure if it is really correct. I always thought that geek kids became bullied, because they look different, and people love to make fun of different people (you can see examples all around the media). Not that bullied people became geeks. Do you have more info on that relation?

Anyways, something I can extract for sure is, if my kid is a geek I better make sure he is not being bullied, because it's a possibility.

I drink a lot of coffee. 8 to 15 cups a day. I always have. I have an insane caffeine tolerance.

One day (I was about 20 at the time) I wondered "am I addicted"? So as an experiment I quite cold turkey. I didn't drink any coffee or tea for a week. I didn't get any headaches, and I didn't feel any kind of withdrawal syndrome. Yes on the first day I really felt like some coffee in the morning, but after not drinking it my body just accepted it. And I went on with my day.

After about a week of literally no changes, I concluded that I cannot be addicted. I went back to drinking coffee at the same rate and never stopped. It doesn't provide me much benefit (like concentration or energy) due to my very high tolerance. But I just really like coffee so I'm going to carry on drinking it.

I wonder if I am a weird exception, or if there are many others like me. We really like coffee but we are not actually addicted to it.

I suppose the same could be said about alcohol. Some people react very differently towards it and get easily addicted, while others don't even though they drink a lot and just do it for enjoyments sake.
I am not sure, and happy to be corrected, but I think this article is so vague, that it must be gpt-3 writing.

I forgot one more thing I do: a redshift kind of system for the whole house. The lights dim and change their temperature from bright and blue during the day to dim and red in the evening, just like my computer and phone does.

Circadian lighting is the script and it follows the sun to make its decisions.
I got a PinePhone and the experience was pretty poor compared to everything else, I never ended up using it as a phone.

But it's still cool, and I'm happy I bought it, and I think that later in the future an OSS phone is going to be amazing.

However my unusual use case was that I want my phone to also be my 'computer', e.g. I arrive at work, plug my phone into the USB-C of the monitor that already has a keyboard, mouse and ethernet attached, and I get to work.

I already use linux day to day at work with an ASUS PN50 4500U and it's awesome.
No, it really isn't. The time you spend with UI is much greater than time you spend managing your collection so bad UI is far worse than a couple of evenings getting your collection in order. Also you get to enjoy your favorite albums not getting taken down without warning or reason.

I hope he can come around IFF he really hold the beliefs people signing the petition find intolerable. I hope for a defense, or a statement of coming around.

Even if it was intentional, I am not sure that spelling mistakes would make 60s/70s decryption attempts any worse. They did not work by brute force and it's unlikely he predicted someone will use a supercomputer to crack his code decades later.

I have seen lots of "evidence" that closed source companies will sweep all problems under the rug or even sue you if you find a vulnerability. Meanwhile maintainers of floss software will just fix the vulnerability, often within a few days if you already spotted the relevant part of the source code.

My worst experience has been with a proprietary rack mount appliance. The closed source software was absolute garbage. It wasn't even a library, it's even more fundamental. It was network equipment, you know, a problem domain that didn't change significantly in the last 20 years. Crap closed source software exists, it just has a harder time propagating because it fails to bring in money. Meanwhile any random FOSS project can last a human lifetime, assuming it is archived properly.
Both new Macs (Intel chip and M1) suffer the same problems because it doesn't have anything to do with the chips: Both use their SSD's as batteries interchangeably. (Physically, this has always been possible. What hasn't been easy, ever, is not corrupting the data when you send power to be stored with it). My Macbook Pro has five "batteries / hard disks", but it's not clear either inside nor from the OS's point of view which is being used as what at any given moment. It has to do some complicated finagling between power and data busses and probably uses those interchangeably too. My Macbook stopped being rechargeable within a few months.
Thanks, that looks pretty good, and testing-library is excellent. I couldn't find it in the docs, but do you know how this "renders" the Svelte components - in memory using e.g. jsdom, or by firing up a full-fledged browser? (The former would be highly preferable.)
