Yes, but again my point is not that it's unprecedented, it's that it's happening now and we might not want it. We are currently writing the rules for how public discourse should work online, and the current approach seems to be "let the market decide". In an environment with massive consolidation, and zero anti-trust enforcement, this may not lead to solutions we would all consider ideal.

You can play semantics, but Twitter did suppress mentions of certain stories on their platform, effectively preventing millions of people from finding out about them.
What you describe is the traditional project managers failure to understand that there role is no longer to draw gant charts but to facilitate the creation and ongoing work with the product backlog.

Perhaps, but calling them a tour group is specious. Their social media posts, testimony and beating of a police officer to death clearly indicates otherwise.

And while the suspect didn't admit to anything incriminating while in Washington, according to the article, it seems unlikely that someone who posts about their mass destruction plans on a right-wing militia forum would just coincidentally have been there sightseeing while an insurrection (or, charitably, an attempt at one) was underway.
I think we need a new definition of innovation. One that doesn't limit the potential of inventors and one that doesn't limit the future. We need shorter time spans for software given how quickly things change. We need a measure of societal good beyond dollars and cents. Our goal should be improving the life of people, not improving the profits of corporations.
The "good" assembly output that this article refers to isn't clearly good...

Long chains of instructions (ie. Where the output of one instruction is required as the input to another) are slow on modern hardware. It might well be faster to calculate the high side clamp and the low side clamp independently, and then to decide which result to return.

Also, I'd hope that clamp() is always inlined, so inspecting it as a separate function doesn't make much sense...
> I've thought of making a DE apps for mobile linux entirely with something like electron.

Oh, please don't. /s

> Linux doesn't really pay.

It depends. Professional DAWs come to mind first: Reaper, Bitwig, Renoise. Professional video editor DaVinci Resolve Studio. Full-featured suite is certainly well beyond the capabilities of a single developer, but I'm sure there's a lot of specific pain points in these professional niches which you could cover. Also, Sublime Text/Merge are massively popular, while being freemium.

You mentioned Electron, so I suppose you're more inclined to web stack: there's a rapidly[1] growing[2] number[3] of WASM-based[4] apps[5]. They're web-native, multiplatform by nature, easily implemented as SaaS'es, and may be packaged as "native" applications.

I could be wrong, but I believe all the videos we've seen were leaked first, then acknowledged. That alone suggests the military has something to hide

Since they've already been leaked, the best US can do is try to deflect. Release the footage to "prove" you aren't hiding anything, then claim you have no idea what it is.

All very tinfoily. But we know something is out there. We just don't know who made it

The article is about the earliest origins of SARS-CoV-2, whether that arose from the activities of the WIV or naturally. My comment is as well.

Once the pandemic emerged, the CCP's response was certainly terrible in many well-known ways (e.g., their attempt to suppress Yan Limeng's initial alarm, and the disappearance of multiple citizen journalists from Wuhan), though it's impossible to know whether a better response could have suppressed its worldwide spread. That's a separate question from those earliest origins, though.

The chances that an average human dies from a thing.

No, I’m not. Modern airplanes get pretty high average occupancy (well, pre-COVID-19... but that affects Amtrak as well). Modern airplanes get a per seat mpg of like 80-110, depending on the route. So my figure of nearly the same is correct even with typical ridership.
As someone who suffers from ADHD, the simplicity of this comment really cuts to the heart of it for me: many words are written by PragmaticPup tiptoeing around what is essentially a directive to "work harder".

Unless you're living with ADHD, you really have no business handing out such directives. I was a hardcore meditator for years, arguably the crucible of mind training -- spent months of silent, directed attention in monasteries -- and despite blowing open the doors to some peak states, complete equanimity with all phenomena, and insight into some of the fundamental mechanics of desire and resistance, I was unable to hold any kind of job at all before I bit the bullet and medicated.

The decades of suffering I experienced because everyone around me was pushing this toxic narrative that ADHD was overdiagnosed and most likely a schema of my own failures could have been avoided if my parents just took a hard look at me and took me to a psychiatrist.

The history behind the Julian calendar is reminiscent of the Unix time problem(s). They were aware of the leap time issue when they designed it. Because it would take so long to accumulate enough leap days to become a burden, it just didn’t matter that much at the time of creation. 1500 years is a pretty good run!
What an extremely difficult game after, I think, level 8. I admire people who are skilled at it.
Anecdotally, I think most people consider themselves the average and judge others against it. Confident people judge themselves to be a bit above average and insecure people judge themselves to be a bit below average.

The study seems to align with this anecdote.

It sounds like both. I obviously don’t think Spotify discriminate due to reasons other than business, I just think decisions like this should become less frequent.

I think you are wrong with regards to “more value somewhere else”. I think the decision was made because they didn’t want to show the “podcasts” section until they can ensure the experience will be great and they have content moderation and such. So they did the simplest thing. But my point is that it does more harm than they realize, since their view of the world is too simplistic and non-globalised.
Amazing how much the Dutch language has changed. I'm a native speaker and that text is very hard to decipher for me. The hand writing is beautiful but very hard to pick apart to begin with. And that is made a lot harder by the many spelling, vocabulary, and grammar changes to the language. I tried to read a few sentences but couldn't make much sense of it. I suspect I'd still have a hard time even if somebody typed the text with a more legible font. I guess, a modern translation with original drawings would actually be an interesting thing to read for a lot of historians and designers.

The irony is that this is the model the new Chrome API was going towards, and Apple has been using it forever, but when Google goes to do it, everyone has tinfoil theories about how Google is specifically doing it to kill ad-block extensions, but when Apple does it, very few people complained.

Realistically, it's probably more security and battery efficient. I doubt they'll undo it.
Yeah that's the grid I was referring to. It isn't the same as the detailed 2D breakdown that uMatrix gives you. Instead it simply has a blanket { green grey red } for each source.

(Also I can never seem to remember precisely what each unlabeled colored box does. I never have that problem with uMatrix.)

> I wrote too much I know but my point is TBCA is not an specific algorithm like gzip or LZW it is a sub branch of compression like an universal set.

Yes, TBCA is a scheme not a specific algorithm (I thought I was clear enough in the reply, but sorry if it wasn't). In fact I've actually done the same thing with my own database as well in a semi-automated fashion based on a pattern. For example I had a string with three parts: a number 1--214, an optional ', a number -9--99. My code accepts a pattern `[1..214]['?].[-9..99]` and generates a code that packs this into 8 + 1 + 7 = 16 bits. This works because I was dealing with the Unicode Character Database (the example being kRSJapanase), so I knew its exact pattern without an exception and had no migration problem since upgrading to newer UCD is a non-trivial problem anyway. Also I wanted to put the entirety of UCD to the shared memory, so I controlled most of the data structure to make this compression actually worthy.

My issue with TBCA presented in this way is that it looks like a direct replacement to general compression algorithms when it isn't. I regard this as a database schema because it is akin to RDBMS normalization: if you compress a name "<given> <sur>" (or vice versa) in this way, you can equally have a separate name parts table and two indices in the original table. The only difference is that you have hard-coded that name parts table into your app. I believe you should instead have done caching, so name parts table still exists but you can refer to the memory if you can. That makes a better general approach than TBCA, and also shows that it can't be compared with compression algorithms.

Ion Wind craft require power comparable to that of a helicopter to fly, in the hands of amateurs just trying to get it to work. Source: http://jnaudin.free.fr/html/liftbldr.htm

I'd imagine that a few decades head start by the military industrial complex could have reduced it to silent triangle shaped craft with no apparent means of propulsion. The tech could be scaled up to make a large triangle shaped craft you could roll a tank up on top of, strap it down, and fly it anywhere, land, unstrap it, and roll it off.

Interested in learning more about this. What does self-funding mean here? Where is the funding coming from?
There were around 20 scientist who went to Wuhan with WHO. From all over the world, with actual relevant qualifications, specialised enough in virology to form a meaningful opinion on this subject.

Today they are all being harrassed by anonymous internet users because their conclusion didn't follow some conspiratorial paranoid anti-China story. What does that tell you?

There are people out there who happily make up stuff to fit a certain story. And people who will happily repeat it.

You can bury your head in ignorance and let yourself be manipulated by the likes of Steve Bannon or you can choose to listen to people, who actually have qualifications in the field and who have a meaningful reputation to loose.
I think the ultimate version of fission technology will be fissing individual atoms in a nanomachine of some sort. This is really cool and hopefully they get it to work, although I don't believe that it'll ever make it into consumer tech in this form.
I suppose its possible that you're just aware of more nuance in food-related things and that an average consumer like me would call those documentaries okay too.
> And the longest period of economic contraction in the US happened before the Fed

Even with the contraction, the overall expansion between the Civil War & the creating of the Fed was still unprecedented & has not been matched since. Good thing the Fed was created just in time to finance the World War 1 resulting in over 20 million deaths. Interesting coincidence...

> (which isn’t an acronym, so all-capsing it just makes you look like a kook)

Wow, I look like a "kook" for all-capsing FED? Hah, I'm obviously not fitting in with this crowd. Perhaps you could have picked up on a different detail...
I have a similar problem. What's weird for me is that I feel totally useless and undisciplined, but when I look back, I actually do accomplish important things. But if you watched me day to day, it is obvious I'm wasting a ton of time. Not just on work, but on myself as well.

I don't mean "wasting" like relaxing and maybe sorting out a problem in my subconscious. I mean wasting.

I seem to be doing better recently. What I do is focus on doing something. Whatever I will do right now that is remotely productive, that's what I do. It might be refactoring code, or drafting a proposal, or reading a book, or doing push ups, or using the debugger to explore something I need to understand, or playing with some new tech I enjoy learning. Pick up any tiny task and just do it.

It ends up mixing personal and work stuff, which is not great. But at least, at the end of the day, I did something. And slowly I will try to control my focus better to get particular things done.
There was a lot of luck too. Not being a major travel hub meant the virus hadn’t become widespread. The New Zealand government dragged its feet at first and clamped down just in time to prevent a much worse outbreak. If they had waited a few more days the cases likely would have gone exponentially vertical, possibly made it into more vulnerable populations and the death toll would have then increased considerably. I’m very grateful for the luck!
To be fair the only difference there seems to be from a future RC release of uBO that isn't even out yet, and also that has to do more with third-party tracking cookies more so than ad-blocking, so most users probably wouldn't notice it. It's not about speed, it's about the probability of detecting these CNAME cloaked tracking.
And that seems to be the source! Thank you! :)

People who think the US needs high-quality commuter rail much more so than fast long-distance rail have the right idea.

Long-distance intercity rail is for the incidental traveler who travels occasionally, and this traveler has many competing choices for their journey.

Meanwhile, the typical commuter rail passenger will ride day after day, both ways, and often their only alternative is an arduous commute in a car -- or moving closer to their job, where their cost of housing would be higher.

Most commuter rail systems in the US suffer from the lack of agency-owned dedicated passenger tracks, and from poor integration into the metropolitan area's cohesive transportation fabric (of which both personal cars and downtown public transit are an inseparable part).

Much success could be achieved by (1) increasing the average speed of commuter transit, (2) investing in reliability, predictability, and frequency of service, (3) investing in Park-and-Ride hubs near certain stations, (4) looking for synergy with freeways and exits, (5) promoting transit-oriented development by both developer incentives and by land purchase and direct investment. The resulting changes would create a culture of transit use for commuting, which will go on to enable the eventual connection of the rail transit networks of neighboring city-pairs.

As for California, an Altamont Pass segment to their High Speed Rail project ought to have been one of first things built. A faster 'Altamont Corridor Express' would have created a ~1-hour link between Stockton and the Bay, integrating the corridor's economy further beyond its current role as an overlong exurban commute. It would've also provided for an alternate rail routing between Sacramento and the Bay that'd be competitive with the Capitol Corridor.

After the initial push towards a 'Super ACE', Altamont lost in the planning to Pacheco Pass; this increased linearity and reduced distance in the SF-SJ-Fresno axis, but in my opinion it was the wrong move. Fresno's accession to the economic continuum of the Bay is far less likely than that of Stockton or Modesto, and the increased linearity doesn't confer a meaningful benefit. Travelers are far more likely to travel between SJ and SF than between SJ and Fresno (or any point further south), so there's little operational benefit to having both SJ and Fresno accessible from San Francisco with no transfers from the same Fresno-bound train. The choice of the Pacheco Pass route is one of the several facepalm-worthy decisions made by CAHSR or by others early on in the process, like an extremely sweeping curve on a long, expensive viaduct just outside of Fresno station [1], or the barely-realistic journey times written into legislation that drive up cost.

I don’t think it has anything to do with racism, even more, I suspect it has more to do with the product (not launching podcasts in Ukraine till they have moderation, experience curation and such) than business.

The answer is simple: think a bit more about modern world, which is more globalised than one thinks and the trend is to only globalise further. YouTube didn’t have any problem letting me watch JRE, so at least in that respect I’m sure the solution is possible.

I experienced this when I first started learning the piano. When I played the first song I had learned for my sister, she was amazed. "Wow, I could never play like that", she said, "my fingers don't work that way". But when I broke down for her exactly how I'd learned it -- by breaking the song down into manageable chunks of just a few notes each, practicing each chunk with each hand separately many times until proficiency was reached, stringing the chunks together until I could play the whole song separately on each hand, and then bringing both hands together and repeating the entire process all over again -- her amazement turned to a look of disappointment. It was a mix of both realizing that her brother wasn't actually a genius, and a sort of mild disgust that I'd dedicated so much time to this activity.
