Also... ships are slow. The voyage from the Suez canal to Rotterdam or Hamburg is at least six days, so there was quite some time to prepare for a gap in supply.
The point of my story was not that the police are racist. The point was that racism is sometimes invisible to people who are not personally affected.

This point is universal and it doesn't matter on which side of the Atlantic it happened.
We base our beliefs in the teachings of Jesus, who was born as a human despite being divine; ministered to people he encountered, performed many signs, taught profound moral truths (e.g. through parables, small debates with the leaders of the time, or even breaking up angry lynch mobs), and then became a scapegoat who suffered, died, was buried and came back.

Everything else follows from that, at least in Christianity.

I suppose I believe in "other planes of existence" (is this supposed to be Heaven and Hell or something?), but those are contingent upon the truth of Jesus' suffering, death and resurrection. I guess I'd say I think we already exist in another "plane" which is immaterial and inaccessible in this life, but is nonetheless real.

I suppose I also "believe in a deity," but not with the connotations you seem to be suggesting. God is not some component of existence or reality or the universe, independent of other things; He is the only source of what it means to exist. I would say I don't even believe that God exists, but that He is below or outside of existence, as He caused everything else to exist that exists. If someone believes in God as a sort of Santa Claus or Jinn granting wishes, then no, I don't believe in that kind of "deity" either. That's just silly nonsense.
> while studying I do pretty regularly think, "man, this would be so much better if it did X; I wish I had an app to do Y", etc., etc.

This is more or less exactly why, despite having played with a lot of different tools, I always come back to Anki. The UI is irritatingly unpolished, and it's difficult to learn well, but it's also the only tool out there that's open and flexible enough that I can easily experiment with and tweak what I'm doing without disrupting my overall learning process overmuch.

I've certainly nerdsniped myself a few times, especially when I'm trying to build something from the ground up because I'm currently toying with some other app. With Anki, though, most of my "app to do Y" ends up just being a Jupyter notebook that I hacked together in less than an hour.
Isn't the moon a better place to build a solar powered thin film factory? Build the whole thing into a single starship, or series of starships and use an EM launcher to leave the surface.

I think you are looking for a regular socially democratic government, not a church.
I hope that Deno can maximize TS performance. Right now they compile TS internally, but especially with this new financially-backed focus I hope that they can perhaps modify V8 or fork it to create a TS engine that takes advantage of type information for optimization. That's really what's needed; in a "no implicit any" application performance would near native.

Also, it's nice that they're using Tokio for the HTTP server instead of a JS implementation (from what I understand). I want to see Deno near the top of the TechEmpower benchmarks.

People have a short amount of time to internalize information - and leading with a known “helpful lie” gets it stuck in their mind and can become nearly impossible to change.
> We tried; it didn't work. The Constitution was worded very generically without labels, except for laws specific to native Americans, and using "he" as a pronoun. Most following laws followed the pattern. The result? Slavery, genocide, disenfranchising women.

If you are gonna fight for historical reparations at least get your history right.

The US didn’t invent slavery, didn’t perform the first genocide, nor the last, and didn’t treat women any different than any other modern society did at the same point point in time. The constitution is not responsible for any of that, despite all the “he”s you might find in it.

These problems have been with us for centuries. There is no society that has ever existed that hasn’t encounter them.

Progress only comes from realizing we are more equal than we are different. We should not go back to segregation, we should not keep creating labels-americans.
In March 2020, CDC and WHO messaging was clear that respirator masks should be saved for healthcare professionals. I saw a lot of media and online posts claiming that masks didn't work at all, but I never saw that from public health officials. It's not lying, or walking back to clarify that loose fitting masks worn by the average citizen are not perfect, and should not be a replacement for social distancing.

I'm not a Baptist, but presumably nearly all of them find it sad and unfortunate and feel compassion for most of humanity.

I'm not sure what you're getting at, though. Only believing things that make you happy isn't a very good philosophy of life.

Correct! In production we've got Cloudflare in the middle, so we're only using sucrase on-the-fly for each .ts file during development. So far it's unnoticeable in terms of loading times.

> I notice your script files are all pretty small, have you run into any upper limits on performance or scalability so far with this approach?

Not that I can tell. But if we need to, we can always do a minified bundle in production later on. So far it's just nice to not have to even think about it!
I was entirely unfamiliar with this event, and I haven't done enough reading to understand the nuance yet - from pure emotion I can say, as a private pilot, whatever we pay our ATC's isn't enough.

Illegal strikes are a complicated topic, and in a safety oriented role such as ATC there is a certain responsibility to both push back on unsafe conditions, while also maintaining as much functionality as possible. Slowdowns, walkouts, sickouts, etc, all make sense to me, but a general strike seems like a serious escalation that raises the safety stakes to an unacceptable level.
Hey, if he changed his mind I'd be happy with that, but I still don't think he should really getting in to those conversations as the leader of the FSF.
Yeah he is right. I believe social isolation (working from home) is much better option than wearing a mask. If you inspect the drop in the flu sickness rate of covid vs prior there is a difference. Not sure how much it is attributed to social isolation.
Any organization is political. The difference is whether we are talking about the organization or the members. Most members are not that politically involved. There are plenty of people who are very religious and participate in the religious ceremonies. If these people no longer had that, it's possible some of them would move into material participation in political parties, offices, etc.
Yes some of the options would have been fairly spectacular at least.
Wasn't a TypeScript runtime the original Deno selling point? Didn't the project have to pivot away from that?
Of course lying can be the appropriate thing to do.

It becomes disturbing to me when the authorities lie about something but everyone knows it, those authorities soon openly admit to lying, and people just accept it because of something akin to "they must know what they're doing".

Yes, I would rather that authorities lie and keep their trap shut about it. If we know that they are lying, and we just accept the "it's for our own good" reasoning every time, then we are at the stage where we're being primed to accept enough absurdities that we'll allow greater atrocities.

> I thought that the official line was always the same, even if you had to search hard for it: masks don't offer much protection to the wearer but do protect others from the wearer.

If that's the official line, why is Dr. Fauci still double masking after receiving both vaccine doses?
They were not. See the videos linked in jessaustin's comment.
"Mystery" and "subjectiveness" are euphemistic descriptions of mythology and fairy tales, used to justify some pretty terrific political and military policies even today. People who go to church are implicitly supporting these things. Some of them have an excuse, in that they were simply raised that way and never had an opportunity for enlightenment. People who should know better don't have that excuse.

They are just reactionary fools and don't have as much political clout as original fools.
Judging by the paper linked sidethread, it's enough that some valid sentences cannot be constructed in a context-free way. Even if they can be losslessly transformed into alternative sentences which can be easily derived from a context-free grammar, their existence demonstrates that the language is not context-free.

Im not a lawyer but I dont think unions work as you describe. Specifically " and you can't just fire us all as it will be catastrophic for you". In terms of game theory the only way a union can really work is if it is illegal to fire a union employee for simply being part of the union (or being on strike).

In the cases where the law does not provide such protections union will take physical action against the employer.
Some are led by consensus and “spirit-leading.” Like the Quakers.
Yes, but you've conveniently left out your other pillars...

Reasoning is just the act of thinking. An explanation for something which, according to you, should be framed around: Scripture, Tradition, and Christian Experiences.

Scripture: Tells you how to feel (emotion)
Tradition: Tells you this is how we've always felt (emotion)
Christian Experience: Is a grouping of Scripture and Tradition (emotion)
Seems this, in retrospect, was alarmist and incorrect. Dredging and pumping out ballast/bilges worked.
Yea but....he's right? What is the controversy here? There was a huge concern about supply shortages and people hoarding PPE. Masks are the best thing the public can do at this point but they aren't perfect protection and the medical community are the ones with the greatest need for PPE...Not to mention, early on in the pandemic it wasn't clear how much protection masks would really give, and people thinking "oh i just need to wear a mask, then I can just do what I normally do" was something they were trying to fight against.
When this first got posted on HN I felt confident that I had absolutely no clue about the difficulties involved or how best to resolve the situation. I still stand by that assessment.

In some ways it is strange they had a Union at all if the Union was toothless. It was a pleasant fiction that was utterly crushed the instant it tried to fight for its members.

What's your take on the dead sea scrolls ?

How do the aspects of the early church align with scriptural literalism? Specifically the split of the early church between Paul and Jesus brother James. James was Jesus's choice to lead the church in his absence. A direction which aligned more with Judaism - including circumcision, and kosher foods. Yet later Christianity revolves around Paul at odds vision. Paul was a Roman who 'saw the light' whilst being sent after Jesus. He never met Jesus. His version of 'Christianity' didn't require those aspects - not least because adult male Romans who were interested in Christianity, weren't too keen on circumcision.

If this is correct, it means modern Christianity, is not based on Jesus stated future direction of his church.

What does your 'scriptural literalism' say about this? If your literature doesn't cover these aspects - then what is decided is canonical and what is not? Presumably such a distinction has to be outside of said literature - and therefore not 'scriptual literalism'. Implying 'scriptual literalism' itself is not grounded.

I should probably also say that it seems to me that claiming 'scriptual literalism' is a defensive position against claims of subjectivity. It is 'literal' and therefore not subjective. This is a fallacy - as there is always subjectivity and interpretation in human understanding, and certainly in interpreting something as nuanced and contradictory as the bible.

This might come across as somewhat aggressive questioning, and I'm sorry for that - but I am legitimately curious how it works.

I’ve been job searching lately and it is brutal. I’m fairly social normally but interviews terrify me. I freeze up, lose my train of thought and I don’t think my enthusiasm for my work really comes though. It’s probably not as bad as I imagine but it’s really frustrating.
People already believe garbage at a pretty alarming rate. It's easy to guess at a number of possible outcomes here:

- More junk text moves the public to doubt legitimate information even further than they currently do.

- There is so much human-generated junk text that adding more of it via AI actually doesn't have much of an effect.

- People return to lean on experts, perhaps even more than before. (just as a number of tech-literate folks have now returned to relying on brand name.)

Speculation is easy of course, so who knows what will actually happen.
I feel like more and more developers are opting for the second form. I'm reminded of litestream (https://github.com/benbjohnson/litestream) for example that is closed to contribution
The employer might have had practically unlimited resources in terms of money but it did not have unlimited resources in terms of qualified air traffic controllers and this is where the leverage normally is. Replacing employees in most jobs has a cost and so strikes hope to leverage an economic cost/benefit analysis as well as public & media sympathy. In this case anti-union ideology overrode the cost/benefit of this strike. It sounds like proper staffing levels for air traffic controllers weren't restored for about 10 years, so there was a substantial cost.

Thinking that "people are easy to manipulate, thus we must prevent lies from spreading to protect society" is too paternalist and (in my limited experience) does not reflect reality.

You are right in that propaganda is a very powerful weapon (I openly admitted that on my previous comment) but, then again, we are all adults that should be able to navigate the ocean of misinformation to find out what is true in order to form our own opinions.

Having all the Nazi propaganda available today is an invaluable tool to prevent it from happening in the future... while not having allowed it in the first place would probably not have prevented WW2 (or maybe it would, we don't know for sure).

As you say (and this might be a bit far fetched, but bear with me) in this instance, voicing their hatred was beneficial *for them*, *at that time*, but not for "genocides in general", as now (thanks to how public their whole ideology became) we have data to fight it, were something similar to happen in the future.

> Mostly I was just trying to point out that it appeared commenters were arguing from two different point of views, one with the intuitive cause and effect definition, and the one from relativity

I think you have hit on something there. Human intuition is a product of human evolution, and for the landscape in which our ancestors evolved, it works very well. I'm talking about moderate speeds and moderate sizes, basically what's covered by classic Newtonian mechanics.

Now the "Schrodinger's cat thought experiment" as a pop culture meme serves to re-enforce that the quantum realm of the very small is counter-intuitive - and it is very much so, so we don't expect intuition to be a good guide to quantum physics.

Unfortunately there's no light-speed equivalent of Schrodinger's cat; or perhaps the innate assumption is it's a "small" thing if the "very small" realm is blurry, but not so much with the very large and fast. Whatever the reason, people continually arrive with assumption that their intuition is a decent guide to relativity, with tragicomic results seen upthread. Intuitive arguments or analogies about thunderstorms just aren't good guides here.
The entire point of the law was to show that it couldn’t be followed, they nearly always failed miserably, even the most famous and well regarded people in the Old Testament that were spoken very highly of like Abraham and David had their fair share of major fuck ups. The point was to show that we couldn’t do it, we were fundamentally flawed and needed Christ to take the burden on our behalf, and needed to be wholly remade through death, “born again” literally as a new creation, into a new lineage, that of Christ, after dying to the lineage of Adam that we inherited from our parents. It was never about doing enough right to outpace the wrong, it was always lineage and inheritance that determined our fate.

This paved the way for the Holy Spirit to come at Pentecost and basically kick off the church which has been growing and spreading from there ever since, and the church has only ever grown, never has it lost numbers, because it’s not an institution of man measured by attendance, those who are born again and counted cannot become “un” born again.

It also says that the path to life is narrow and few find it, there was never a heavenly expectation that they would ever be in the majority, despite that there is also a desire for all to be saved.

The difference is the human view and the God view. We were instructed to have the human view and act accordingly, spread the gospel far and wide because we didn’t know where the seed would fall and take root even though God knows, he didn’t want us to be choosy, that is his domain. All part of this grand cosmic theater that is infinitely beyond my limited perspective.
