I'd love to see you try on my blog. Thank you
We need more diversification in the supply chain for the capsule/carrier technology. Right now, this feels like gastronomical chemistry, only 4-star chefs can play.

We need India able to pump this stuff out by the billions, like they do for other drugs.

Flu, HIV

can mRNA handle Malaria, then TB? Parasite, and Bacterial.
They will go back to the conventional tab design, I am pretty sure about this. Tabs should look like they look in Chrome, not like in Firefox or VSCode. Tab design has pretty much been settled in the 90s, no need for experiments.
If it's anything like the smaller cities in LA county, they probably use the police to push off the homeless across the border. Culver city and santa monica are notorious for this practice.

I really like free entry to public things. Like the museums in the UK. Not so much for the savings, but the reduced friction is nice, makes one feel more welcome. I remember Los Alamos in the US having free buses, that was also quite nice.

I would like there to be a funding scheme for most public services similar to the UK student loan system. Where you pay out of your own pocket, ultimately, but only as a fraction of your income and above a certain very livable minimum, and only for the services that you personally use.
So much this. I’ve been setting up a new computer recently, first time in a while, and in the process I’ve been moving a bunch of stuff into Nix that was previously ad-hoc, specifically so I don’t have to remember about this again (and especially since I know I’ll be setting up another computer again in the near future). I even finally adopted nix-darwin and home manager in order to move more things under the Nix umbrella.
But unless you list those factors such adjective is meaningless.

The pirates didn't start the practice of abusing lawlessness. After the civil war and the breakdown of the state, fishermen from other countries would illegally trawl the waters off the Somali coast and industrial waste was being dumped by foreign opportunists. Just one instance involved 600 drums of radioactive waste from Europe and the US. This exacerbated the problem by reducing the fish supply further.

Eventually, this led to violent clashes where Somali fishermen would take over ships in the area illegally for ransom. This quickly became the piracy industry as we know it.
Looks great, can't wait to try it.

Kudos for those who worked hard on it.

It is a shame so many comments are putting down the effort. Firefox is still the best browser out there where privacy is a concern.
Some codebases have just mutated into junk beyond the point at which refactoring could still rescue any value, so a full rewrite actually becomes the better option. I would assume this problem to be especially widespread in apps of hastily growing startups.
If you want them on Replit, go add them to Nixpkgs.

Edit: Searching for Vue, I mostly find Vue.js. Since you said programming language, are you talking about what seems to be an esoteric language for programming probe traces on an AIX? https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/aix/7.2?topic=concepts-vue-progr...

As for Nuxt, I again find a framework Nuxt.js, based on Vue.js. I can’t even find a programming language called this.

So… are you in fact talking about JavaScript frameworks?

Irrelevant - none of the STDs that have survived to this day and that also existed in prehistoric times would have been a major cause of death, except perhaps as complications in child birth.
The only weird incentive I can think of is that I'd hop on a tramway for one station if i see it coming instead of walking 5 minutes like i probably should.
This reminds me of generating signed distance fields from bitmaps by rendering a cone at every target pixel with a vertex color of white at the point and black at the base.

I like the method because not only is it silly, it's also very easy to do on GPU and good enough so I actually have used it in real products.
Bikes have got much bigger too.

Earlier this year I bought my first 29er (Production Privee Shan No.5) and it's way bigger than my 26er bikes. It makes my DH bike (224) look small!
Fallujah is probably doing alright ever since the Islamic State was expelled from there.
I've used pocket since it was called ReadItLater and love it, and the original comment didn't seem to be just hate for it.

It seemed mostly criticism of an approach where marketing says X ("we look at what users really use") but the product says Y ("we push feature X cause we like it eve if users don't").

Also less injuries/settlements and criminal records from hiring private security with powers of police who have no police training.
I think one flip-side argument is that this will predominantly benefit people in cities, which have much better transport infrastructure than suburban areas.

Hopefully the money this costs is matched on a per-capita basis by region across the country to ensure that regions with less-developed public transport can also benefit.
People will pay, just indirectly.

Pricing is a great signal for economic optimisation but if there is really nothing to be optimised as these services essentially run as monopolies then maybe this approach on balance comes out better for all.
Are you recommending jsf?
Don't forget that in France, gas is taxed maybe 80% (to pay for roads, the more you drive the more you use roads, as a good first approximation)
Hmm thanks. That's not good!
Nope. It’s the mainframe software airlines use for “computerized check-in” and the ability to list flights from different airlines for different legs of the same journey, just like banks use mainframes designed for checking accounts or companies use ERP systems or governments make budgets. Outside of actually flying and maintaining planes, these systems are deeply integrated to how airlines coordinate between each other, how airports show flight information and so on. We’ll replace them when the last person uses a physical VISA card (probably never…)

Another way of putting it: whatever replaces these systems will likely be forced to do the same thing, so why bother?
> Citizens in California are allowed to make a citizen's arrest including use of reasonable force.

For a misdemeanor (as the shoplifting described in this case appears to be), only if the arrested party actually committed the offense and it occurred in the arresting party’s presence (for a felony, the terms are somewhat looser.)

As the description clearly indicates that the offense did not occur in the poster’s presence and he wasn’t even aware of the offense until after using force to restrain his victim, he committed both battery and false imprisonment by violence, the latter of which is a felony offense, and the former is at a minimum a violent misdemeanor.
Dunkirk ( France) has been testing it since 2018. So i guess they liked the results ( https://www.eltis.org/in-brief/news/free-public-transport-du... )
"I've probably already typed Cmd-N or Cmd-O, depending."

This is, particularly for a novice or intermediate user IMO quite intimidating. It means there is some learnt behavior + keyboard command required to "see anything" and work with the program. If I'm using my trackpad/mouse trying to work out after I start a program why I can't see anything like I've seen new Mac users do for some time it isn't great. Because there is no window its easy to click anywhere else in my search for my "missing program" and immediately lose the "menu bar" that allows you to (Cmd-N) or discover the ability to do that. It's almost like the app never booted up.

Sure you can learn behavior and work around it as I and you have had to do, but if the menu bar behavior changes per window focus anyway I don't see the difference than Windows with menu bar on the window other than "its the Mac way".
Yes.

I use normal select when:

- I want to apply a regex to a specific area, e.g. a single function (vjjjjj:s/my_function/my_new_function/g<enter>)

- I want to cut some text and I don't want to count how many words out it is (vwwwwx)

I use block select when:

- I want to delete a section of fixed width formatted text (Vjjjlllx). Useful for manipulating logs with a fixed width prefix.

- I want to append text to the start of a line. (VjjjjjjI# <esc>). Useful for commenting out lines.
same experience here and I'm also all over Europe. The time when you could just fly without hassle only lasted a few years. Now I have to look into the empty eyes of some dweeb wanting to check my passport like I'm entering Beirut in 1982. I feel obliged to thank them out of artificial politeness but really want to just ask them why they had to get a job that allows them to display power. Not that these checks ever prevented a "terrorist" attack. Airports only catch small drug mules that could have taken a bus anyway.

Freedom of movement was one of the major selling points for joining the EU to the unwashed middle classes. That has all gone to the dogs (at least for business travel). The only advantage of free movement that still exists is being able to live and work in other countries.

It's typical when they do something in the name of "sEcURitY" they will never roll it back. Classic "salami tactic" and a slow encroachment by the system[1]. Opinions on this obviously vary depending if a person uses a uniform for work in order to compartmentalize their conscience, has to defend family working for the security apparatus, or peddles crappy/racist "AI based" biometric software to the system. Perhaps wanting to become a "person of authority" is like a gender thing which people have no choice over. So I shouldn't make fun or look down at them: ACAB ("Assigned Cop At Birth").

Also the worst of all countries has doubtlessly been the UK. Even you arrived coming from Europe, they shepherded you through the slow-lane like a smelly goat with noises that sound like Dick Van Dyke doing a Bricktop impression.

Massive investments in black communities. Comparing the treatment of the Irish to 400 years of institutionalized chattel slavery is absurd on its face. Also, again, ignoring everything else I mentioned. Some books you should check out to learn more about this. The New Jim Crow and The Color of Money. Black communities have been chronically underfunded, underserved, over-policed, and segregated for the entire history of our country.
Vim is very user friendly - to power users.

Yes, it takes a bit to get used to its controls, but I'm not sure there's a super easy way to teach modal editing to newcomers. On the other hand it's a really reliable and efficient tool that just doesn't try weird stuff. If you have a 1000 line configuration file you can blindly upgrade to the next version and trust everything is still working exactly the same. Considering how many apps do the opposite and add random changes all the time to A/B test everything, this is very valuable.

And while I wouldn't call it perfect, I think editing text is really, really intuitive and fast once you're used to it, to a degree using a mouse in other editors feels slow.
> That, sadly, won't scale.

We never really need it to. That’s one of the few benefits of writing software in the public sector. We don’t need to expect an explosive growth in users.

We’ve seen 10.000 additional citizens move to our area over 5 years, so there is growth, but it’s far from everyone of them who would interact with a single solution that we wouldn’t buy from the private sector through public procurement.
In France (like SV, I guess), the equivalent of America’s “inner city” is the French suburb and vice-versa, so if we take what you said as true then this is unfortunately not empowering those that need it the most.
Those are the opposites of unconstrained capitalism. In unconstrained capitalism you'd have lots of building, building bigger multifamily residences and towers, no zoning getting in the way, little to no taxes, etc.
How can you make those causation statements so confidently?

Prop 47 was passed 2014. The opioid crisis has been going on forever. People are using these stories to fuel their political biases.
Does google still make search appliances?
My friend owns a Shoppers Drug Mart in Toronto. They employ the same strategy there too. In areas with high foot traffic they have a lot of stores close by to make it hard for anyone else to start a business in the area. It ends up being more overall profitable because they take all the sales in that area leaving it harder for newer competitors to operate profitably.

ABC stores in Honolulu employ the same strategy. There are mutilple ABC stores on the same block sometimes.

The Bishop of Oakland was robbed at gunpoint while walking near the Paramount Theatre just this past Saturday.
Right, anecdotally. The police don't keep stats on how often they tell crime victims to not file a report, so it's hard to get good data. If you look around on the internet, or ask people you know in SF, you will get stories.

Drivers also face violence for enforcing fares (however many agencies now ask them not to because of this).

Handling cash adds a huge cost as well in addition to the electronic systems.

Lots of friction across the board
You remind me of this tired old joke. The doctor proclaims, "The surgery was success, but unfortunately the patient is dead!"

From my perspective, I only care about getting from paint A to point B in a safe way that doesn't kill me. Avoiding ware zone bus stops in-between counts, since the bus stops are part of the transportation system.
But we have also seen countries with free higher education and that has not be ruined, has it?
The diagraitself is an SVG. You can scale that to any size you like, using an SVG editor (e.g., Inkscape).

Take that file to your local print shop, as suggested in another comment.
Because there is no evolutionary pressure on viruses towards more severe outcomes - if anything, the opposite is true. Higher virulence is occasionally seen though, as was the case with the swine flu some years ago.
You pay more (in the US) per person for medicare and medicaid than Canada does per person for the entirety of our socialized health care system. $11,500(USD) per person vs $7000(CAD) per person.

I don't mean to be snarky, but WebGL 1.0 is 10 years old as of March. So yeah, if you need to support that there's a lot of extra work you need to do, for all kinds of things.
Property crime is at least getting common enough in the South Bay to warrant parking lots posting signs warning people to stow their luggage in their trunks. Seems like car break-in culture has spread beyond S.F.

> benefiting mainly the corrupt leadership.

Do not the corrupt leadership benefit from the violent status quo?

Not to say that Oslo was perfect, or that I would not have rejected that arrangement as well, but the idea of taking half a loaf is worth discussing, because the rank-and-file who bear the weight of the rejection might be further along.
The beauty of Vim is that it uses almost a natural-language approach to editing. It's not the opposite of user friendly, it is, in fact, much closer to the user's consciousness, than many other editing paradigms. I.e. when I am editing text in vim I am translating my intentions to vim commands almost directly. "Change this paragraph" becomes "cip", or "cap" as in change inside/around paragraph. Select text up (or down) to line 30 is v30G. This one does not translate to proper English directly, but it's pretty straitforward when you know how to build Vim's "phrases".
What is PrEP?
> this feels like gastronomical chemistry, only 4-star chefs can play

It’s literally a new biomedical platform. Only 4-star chefs can even guess at how the kitchen should be stocked.
This 1000x. The types of rider you get are a reflection of the infrastructure you have. Mostly busy roads? Aggressive ,fast male riders. Quiet, physically separated bike lanes? Families, children going to school, cargo bikes...
My point is not that this is impossible; it's that separating the tasks of building a list of query results and then executing an operation on those results requires some kind of convention about how to refer to those results across the two phases. Developing such a convention is a harder problem than it looks like.

The example I was responding to was from the (Unix) shell, which as far as I am aware does not offer any such convention other than filenames. Real programming languages of course offer more options, but even there the problem is not solved: as you say, you must then build the system which understands how to take the results of the query and execute something on them. That means designing such a convention inside your program. The article is about using a type system to help you do that cleanly.
If you've not realised this yet, the diagram is clickable, and links through to the Vim manual section corresponding to the feature in question.

This is quite excelently done, thank you darcyparker!

Note that this doesn't include all features. Digraphs (Ctrl-K from Insert mode) are missing, e.g.
Well this has a non-zero chance of turning into "Unchecked prey 2050" in reality.
> Problem 92 Dad took our new baby to the clinic to be weighed. But the baby would not stay still and caused the needle on the scales to wobble. So Dad held the baby still and stood on the scales, while nurse read off their combined weight: 78kg. Then nurse held the baby, while Dad read off their combined weight: 69kg. Finally Dad held the nurse, while the baby read off their combined weight: 137kg. How heavy was the baby?

It is never unwelcome to have a little humour in the maths book.
Last time I was in France (Lyon, a few years ago), there was quite a number of homeless people camping out in the parks. Is France also a third-world country?

I agree that the homeless situation is bad. I don't think blanket claims that other "first world" countries handle it much better are necessarily true, unfortunately.
This rings true, although it’s hard to think of cities where the issue has resulted in as much harm as in SF.
Remember that there is non-monetary cost to transport systems.

People perhaps commit an hour of their time or more to planning and taking a journey. For most people, that cost is far more than the $3.50 ticket price.
> the laws are even still more draconian than in Western European countries

Theft is effectively legal in SF. Is it in those places?

> booking processes more traumatic

Subjective nonsense.

> prison terms longer, prison conditions an order of magnitude worse, and supervised release much more onerous.

In SF, theft does not receive "prison terms".
if you really are 50/50 on choices about primary field, then move to secondary questions:

* what is the company culture? What evidence do you have about this?

* do you like the cities or towns you will have to work in? Why or Why not?

* do you have a partner, with less job mobility and perhaps can "take one for the team" to allow them to follow a dream more than the other choice?

* whats staff retention like? Not that you want to stay forever necessarily, but its good to understand turnover especially in young hires.

* what do your professors say? not that you have to agree, but might they understand your latent and overt capacities better?
It's definitely Elsivier that has an effective monopoly and loves to keep it.
My point is that it isn't their job to create laws or decide what is or isn't legal. This is like saying prosecutors should just do their job, and get bad people into prison no matter what pesky judges decide. It's not a slowdown or a conflict, it's the prosecution saying those crimes are defacto legal now. It's very dishonest to pretend it's just "work slowdown".

And btw I probably... Dislike the police more than most, a lot more even. But I also don't like prosecutors. I also think that you have to live with the consequences of whatever policy you want. So you can't basically vote for situations like these to be "legalized" to then scapegoat the police. It's fine to think some property crimes shouldn't be punished, but you have to accept that it leads to stuff like this. Now if that's a good trade-off for SF residents then I honestly don't see the problem.
I don't use add-ons or plugins.
I just want a secure browser that -

1. doesn't have a memory footprint the size of Texas.
2. doesn't have memory leaks that eat all my remaining RAM.

And it would be nice to have it within 20 years.
You're actually talking about visual and visual block (although V is visual line and <C-V> is visual block in your examples). Select is a weird mode where typing will overwrite your selection, similar to how it works in a modeless editor like notepad or the HTML textarea.
> I don't think that has any reason to be stated in a discussion about a refactoring tool.

Find and replace is the baseline, and for many refactorings is insufficient and fragile, however in replacing a stable, unique, and isomorphic token it is basically as good as it gets, so I think it is relevant. Its probably the least useful thing a refactoring tool could do.
In terms of reduced friction, I'm a big fan of the swiss transport system: you can hop in any bus or train without validating your ticket anywhere, and you get controlled from time to time. And the fine are big.

So you get:

- not much friction (+ the app is great)

- you use transports more -> you pay more (and not everyone)

- fraud is low because the fines are big enough to dissuade people, and increase every time you get caught
I hope this is a step forward for Firefox. I hope this is not yet another redesign for a desktop app that tries to make it look like a mobile app by removing features and adding gratuitous amounts of whitespace.

Desktop is not Mobile and they should not have the same interface. Windows 8 showed us what a disaster that was, but every company since seems to have to learn this lesson themselves. (Looking at you spotify and others)
The commons inevitably becomes the dumping ground for all of society's unsolved problems.

I hope France has solved most of their problems; this can't work in the US until we fix a great deal of social injustice and lack of safety nets.
No, prawnsalad did not make the choices you are referring to. Quote from the farewell letter:

"(Tiny bit of context, The Snoonet network was sold by its founder, didn't explain to the network staff, then I had to explain to the staff (i think roughly a year later) what had happened as clear possible, I still get blamed for selling the network though)"
Even with PrEP available, HIV would likely still have become a big problem in places where healthcare is not as readily available, especially in Africa, where it is still a major concern today.
Not sure if I understood you correctly.

In our context "evil" just meant that someone breached the secrecy a group assumed to be a shared value.

Encryption is never evil and the tools used to facilitate communication in democratic societies should not be equipped with traps to enforce whatever power positions exist at one time.
