Thanks for the response. With that explanation I better understand the “null hypothesis” and how you would attempt to “disprove the null”. This makes me believe it could be done in a way where an omniscient and merciful God would knowingly discern such efforts as earnest and sincere. Perhaps answers could be found this way. I think this is an acceptable methodology that could be applied by a sincere truth seeker and still achieve the same outcome I experience, with admittedly a less biased premise.

A conversion in this way would certainly come with an increased accountability and is perhaps why it’s more difficult to come by. Being convinced absolutely and not willing to adhere comes with more dire consequences if one is to believe scriptural record—which admittedly sounds a bit foreboding but may be more merciful than one might assume at first glance. There are even scriptural accounts of similar things being done successfully (see Paul’s experience on his road to Damascus, or if you’re willing to venture into my brand of Christianity see Alma’s experience in chapter 36 of the Book of Mormon).

However, I do think the premise of God helps me understand and open new avenues of thought. Personally, I started from the assumption that an Omniscient being, capable of designing the very reality we perceive and live in, can probably come up with a way to “test” and “prove” us in a way that protects our ability to make our own choices yet extends enough grace to satisfy the demands of justice. If I were obligated to believe because I could not refute the evidence, I don’t know how effective that would be of a test to prove I’ve become what I’m supposed to be. Personally I think this Plan works whether you get behind a belief system or not.

I have very much appreciated the insights you’ve shared. You are right, I could be wrong, and have become heavily indoctrinated with a healthy dose of confirmation bias. But for me at least, I’ve found something that I receive great benefit and perspective from. I recognize it won't be that for everyone.
Misleading. The vast majority of professional scientists don't do any science as science is defined when compared to engineering and analytics (and technical work, loosely defined). For example, if I use a well-established mathematical or statistical model to predict the range of Chamois in the Alps under the hypothesis of +2 degree Celsius during summer, am I doing science? Am I doing engineering? Am I doing analytical work? You are certainly not drawing a straight line between my work and Max Planck's.

> Please, I remember we would all die a horrible death due to a nuclear armageddon.

That was a significant risk at one point.

> When that didn't happen, we would all suffocate because all the forests would die due to acidrain.

Eh? Who told you that?

> Then we would all die of skin cancer due to the ozone-hole.

That was a serious, but ultimately very tractable problem, with an expensive but feasible solution, which was taken.

> I actually remember the nuclear effects from Tjernobyl, glad I didn't die then.

See answer two.

Global warming is most similar to number three, but the solutions are far, far more expensive, and may have been left too late.

Ultimately "something bad nearly happened, but it was averted" doesn't form a great basis to assume that the next very bad thing will also be averted.
Rape has absolutely nothing to do with attractiveness. Talk to any woman and ask if she isn't worried about sexual assault. Pick any woman you consider unattractive, and see if she thinks she's even the slightest bit less at risk than her most attractive friend.

Rape is used in warfare as a method of dominance. It demoralizes the population, causes enormous numbers of pregnancies to be dealt with, and creates fear. It's terrorism. No woman is safe from it. (Nor, it should be noted, are men, though that's less common and much less discussed.)

Rape is a crime that keeps all women scared. They never know if it will be them, tonight. They know it has nothing to do with them as human beings, only that they carry female genitals and some men will use force to get at that. Nothing else about them matters, certainly not their faces. This is a thing that every single woman will tell you.

I think there are some jobs where the role of the job is to - for lack of time to come up with a better phrase: "help humans struggle with human things".

Yes, a nurse's role is to heal, but also to offer comfort to a patient, a teacher's job is to instruct, but also to try different ways of connecting with a student struggling to understand an idea.

I don't know if people think those types of jobs are bad or not. I think some of my family members would have had better hospital experiences if they could have had more attention from staff, so I don't think I'd call it useless.

I think that automation could lead to a world where more of the humans-dealing-with-human-things types of jobs are being done.

There are three font sizes with valid uses beyond designers trying to justify their existence: small, medium, and large.

Likewise there are three valid fonts: fancy (serif or non-Latin equivalent), plain (sans-serif or non-Latin equivalent), and mono-spaced.

This means only 9 font sizes need to be decided. The software can provide reasonable defaults, and a simple UI to allow to user to change them, which won't take long.

The only difficulty is when a font doesn't provide full Unicode coverage. Full coverage will have to be assembled from multiple fonts, which means the sizing won't necessarily be consistent. But in this case consistency is already lost, so I see no need to further complicate the UI. The user can still tweak things with fontconfig or equivalent.

One counter-stance would be: authenticity of any communication is an unsolved problem. Lying, bias, cheating, misconstrual, forgery, libel, etc. are all problems that go back hundreds of years, societal rules can simply be broken for selfish reasons.

The Internet has given all speech a larger platform and more reach, which means that both authentic and inauthentic voices are amplified. Maybe the inauthentic voices gain a comparative advantage to non-Internet worlds, since they gain more attention via outrage or exaggeration. Does the fault lie on social media, content websites, or users?

So do we modify the Internet, or do we attempt to modify ourselves, or both?

Because Clojure is not terribly fashionable, I imagine the developer pool is much smaller but the candidates are higher quality, mostly due to self-selecting. I really like the sentiment of empowering individual developers to the max.

It's funny, a lot of organizations want to beat the averages whilst engineering in an identical fashion to their competitors. You're not going to consistently get outstanding results if you do the same thing as everyone else.
> My way is to recognize that if you are going to build and operate a complex IT-dependent business function, a prerequisite step to success is to own the IT capacity

Right, just become an IT organization. That's the simple answer nobody talks about.

This is a non-answer because even most companies that want to can't do this, and as a taxpayer I don't want my government developing IT excellency, I want bureaucrats doing their core task not writing specs. (When they leave the agency they could go to the business process consultancy I mention, where they monitor and advise the developers in tax questions and departmental process issues.)

- Calculate your trace widths (based on heat/current requirements and copper weight - there are online calculators that do fine).

- USB data lines require controlled impedances, check your fab for a trace width calculator.

- Don't forget via sizes, the default in your CAD tool is probably too small

- Check your fab for their design rules instead of using rules of thumb

> about the closest I can come to a document case of tomato sauce related food poisoning is this 20-year old who died from eating spaghetti. His case is not a lot help though, since he had apparently left the spaghetti unrefrigerated for five days, and since the toxins they found were in the noodles, not the sauce.

I think the interface between the sauce and the crust in a pizza has some similarities to a noodle. Reading the study linked in the article makes me more hesitant to eat 'aged pizza' (as I used to call it in my college days)
Font metrics is a super-complex topic.

I have been digging into old Word documents and it's started to dawn on me why Visual Basic "worked" as GUI builder in a time when its competitors didn't... The font metric system in Windows 95 gave great control, with the ability to position individual characters and more configuration choices (e.g. strikethrough) than most web browsers today.

It is way "beyond state of the art" to change the typeface in your text editor easily and have it work.

I have lately been doing a project that involves printing onto cards with bitmaps I make with Pillow, and you learn pretty quick that there is no such thing as a "unicode font" but instead you have to patch up your own "unicode font" by putting together a 日本語 font with a nice Latin font, and not worrying about other languages until I have to print them... The web browser and other high-level tools do it automatically but they don't do well.

I can't remember doing crosswords in english before, but at least here in Brazil, when the the question uses plural, it means the answer should be plural as well, so "Bosses of the farm in Orwell's world" with 3 letters gave me a little pause, for example.

Maybe it's nitpicking, but you might want to capture th "Esc" key (currently it outputs "ESC" when hit), and maybe either allow control+c to copy the question, or block it entirely (currently it outputs "C").

Maybe also punish the player for revealing the word, by not awarding points when it's used.

Yeah it must be the over saturation, everywhere I look it seems is something negative and hateful towards Trump. They have even started identifying people a “Trump supporters” as if it’s some kind of identity that lingers on rather than just someone who supported a previous candidate. It’s nauseating.
Again, I agree with you. I do want to point out, though that those are not abstract concept or limited use cases. Any business, including competitive employment positions, can apply for that license, as long as they meet the parameters laid our in the law and regulation. I'm assuming that because of its size, Amazon would be excluded.

Honestly, though, I am not familiar with the application process as we refuse to use it.

That being said, I was genuinely just trying to point out that it is, in fact, legal to pay individuals with disabilities less than an individual without a disability.

Language is important. Claiming that trying to pay individual b (who has a disability) any less than what you would pay individual a (who does not) for any work is automatically disability discrimination is just wrong. I've been sued several times by people who believe that fact, and have been proven right in my statements by the courts.

I don't like it, but I don't control the law.

Please note, I am not saying your needs wouldn't be an appropriate accommodation from Amazon. Please note that I am not saying it is morally okay to pay individuals with disabilities less.

Maybe I'm being too pedantic. But honestly, the number of people who genuinely believe that they are entitled to get literally whatever they want however they want it, regardless of any other factor, simply because of their disability is just astounding.

Reasonable is the important part of accommodation.
Well, from a strategic point of view, if you think you're on the losing side, wouldn't it make more sense to create doubts about the procedure? Then you can scream "Rigged election!"...

I haven’t written any Clojure for a few years now. So my knowledge and technique is out of date, but I have a contrary opinion on “repl driven” development vs many Clojure advocates. In short: your repl compiled code is state that you now have to track in your head.

Yeah, great, you can compile a single function and it hot loads. It’s pretty awesome for experimenting and debug, but the longer your repl session is open and the more you change and compile, the more likely you are going to end up with a mixed state in memory that does not reflect how your program would behave if run from scratch.

You are going to forget to save a change or your manual tinkering with a data structure will leave it inconsistent. These errors accumulate, like navigation error with an IMU.

It’s got use cases for sure, and I miss hot reloading when I’m debugging in other languages, but it is far from being the ultimate feature a language can have.

In Jetbrains products, I am CONSTANTLY hitting Esc to Tab to deal with the helpful predictive suggestion. I find that feature sometimes useful, so I have not turned it off.

Both ways. Unions have their share of intimidating people to vote for them.
You can try turning off WiFi if you don't need it. I found that to greatly improve battery life.
Junegunn, the fzf author, makes great vim plugins too. Both the user experience and the developer experience (the code of these plugins) feel just right.

Fzf is better integrated in vim than in emacs. So I use dmenu on X/wofi on wayland instead, which are basically GUI fzf replacement.
I think it goes further than the language's support of data literals to the culture of the language itself. The Clojure community takes programing with data literals to, what I would call, a pathological extreme. It's as if nobody wants to write actual code, just data structures to be interpreted, regardless of how general those data structures are. The problem is everybody gets hung up on code is data but doesn't realize that data is not code. At some point that data has to be interpreted, and passing around custom data literals trusting they'll be understood correctly elsewhere in your program turns into its own challenge.

Feels like, at this point, anyone in this situation surely knows what's gonna happen. They can't say it publicly, though, or at least, definitely not during the announcement!

I can just imagine how that would go... "Today we have been purchased by BigCo. We'll try to keep things the same for as long as we can, but tbh all the founders got a 2 year agreement after which we get a boatload of money, and then we're outta here and they'll probably shut this whole thing down. Enjoy it while it lasts!"
I am not all qualified to answer this but I will guess. I would assume "separation of duties". A Syringe's job is to be available to administer any vaccine at the time of delivery. If you prefill a syringe, you now have to ensure it is only used for that vaccine purpose and then you also have to label it properly. More work. Vaccine package anyway needs to be properly labeled but now you are introducing another overhead to track/manage/label the syringes.

Logically, it makes sense to keep the 2 separate. This way, you can use any good syringe when needed while ensuring there is no confusion on which vaccine was administered.

Also, this ensures that you don't need a 1-1 relationship between syringe and vaccines. Lets say you produced a million vaccines. There is no need to produce a million syringes at the same time. You can just ship the vaccine to whichever clinic/hospital/authority and they can decide how to distribute and get syringes at the time.

How is this for a guess ?

I wouldn't say perfectly. Amazon's own tools do a far better job than Calibre for ePub to AZW which shouldn't be too surprising because that's how they're typically made.

Calibre is handy thanks to plugins but I have found it lackluster for anything more advanced than a basic Latin script novel for conversion. Stuff like Japanese where it needs to do R2L it just completely falls on it's face. Comic books don't work well either.

> The only thing I'd say about this is that the omni-God which is everything and being itself is actually less complicated than the God in the bible [...]

The (Catholic) Christian God is not everything. That God is being itself. And that God is the God of the Old and New Testament.

> However, I think that what Aquinas describes is different enough from what "God" means to most theists to merit a different term.

Most believers are not theologians and philosophers, so the day-to-day mental of a Bearded Dude in the Sky may be good enough.

> It is Aquinas and others attempting to use the word "God", which has an ancient meaning, to describe a totally abstract metaphysical concept.

Which is why we get into things like Unmoved Mover, First Cause, etc:

* https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Five_Ways_(Aquinas)

Aristotle, whom Aquinas draws inspiration from, may view the Unmoved Mover as more of a concept. But the Christian God is not a concept, but a person (or persons, given the Trinity), which is seeking a personal relationship with each of us.
