Well, we know for a fact that a >96% similar virus was found to infect the miners naturally in 2006… how hard is it to imagine a few more tweaks since then?

We’ve already had many mutations of COVID occur in the past year. Is it crazy to think virus which infected the miners couldn’t have mutated into what we know as COVID?
Yes, that works fine for a space station, but not so much for a rocket that needs to accelerate and decelerate it on a trip to Mars (and back).

I do think it is productive to say. This thread shows clear efforts of an organized group, likely state-sponsored, to disrupt it. It was funny to see this happen on 4chan, because at first they could not get it right, and were stuck in their Wikipedia editor mode. They kept getting called out for it, or ignored.

They switched to upvoting and commenting unrelated threads to the front page. When 4chan changed their algorithm to combat this blatant manipulation, they ended with an effective weapon: shitposting.

You fill a thread on Covid or GoF research with an incredible amount of shitposts, and other shitposters attacking those shitposts, downvote walls of text to grey. Derail, derail, derail. You end up with a thread that nobody wants to read, and requires sifting through shit to find what you need. Then easier to just listen to the news about what expert Peter Daszak has to say.

"Megaphone" is a bad analogy. You hear a megaphone whether you want to or not, and it interferes with other discussion.

Social media was blocking posts that people wanted to read and even blocked private messages. That's privatized censorship; there's no other word for it.

I am honestly dumbfounded that people are excusing it.

From my personal experience, the introductory ethics classes taught under philosophy often feel like "philosophy of ethics", with tenuous connections to anything taught elsewhere. Classes taught under science and technology studies are more useful, because the field is empirical. Even if none of the case studies are from your field, the ways STS approaches them are widely applicable.

I think this is a legitimate question! Saying you want the UI to get out of the way _can_ mean that you still want the DE for the 10% of the time you need it, but for the 90% of the time you don't, you want it to be unobtrusive.

Classic example for me is how Mac will fuse the top bar and a maximized app's toolbar. I want the top bar sometimes! But I like it not being a permanent fixture if the app I'm using needs it.

A lot of people want the DE for when they need it, and want it to not be in the way when they don't. That's what a lot of people mean by that IMO.
Yeah, they lied to you. The trouble with ARIA is that it relies, fundamentally, on the assumption that everything's a RIA (the hint is in the name). This assumption is bollocks.

A typical failure scenario is toggles in forms, that appeared to have been set by button-press, but have only changed cosmetically. The silent errors that creep in this way are painful to unravel. Relying on input element state avoids not merely the tail wagging the dog, but the tail wagging only itself because TypeError: dog is not an object.

When overused, or used in a cargo-cult fashion, ARIA is also notorious for making pages less accessible, and unfortunately this is frequently the case.

If you want to build accessible pages, then write simple and semantic HTML. Out of the box this is likely to be fairly accessible from the go. Then annotate using the minimum of JS to set the minimum of ARIA attributes that clearly improve accessibility, and if someone's relying on ARIA then you can, by definition, assume that JS is available, since it is (I'll reiterate this) right there in the name, and what's more if it it's broken or unavailable, then your fallback plain-old-HTML retains some semblance of utility and accessibility for assisted and non-assisted visitors alike.

The path through the swamp doesn't have to be smothering it in concrete.
Yes thank you for your responses. People wine but we're clearly pathetic as an industry, limping along with Unix etc. We know so much about how to build better systems, and yet it's more bandages on the status quo, all the while increasing complexity which makes things largely futile.

Unlike "real war", cyber defense also gets to design the battlefield, everytime time. There will always be social attacks, but the stupid C and Unix stuff that is the bread & butter today is completely preventable

> ...except the need to commit the current state to make things reproducible.

This can definitely be a problem, but at least in the instances where I've worked with teams using Notebooks it hasn't been an issue. Usually data is either coming from networked storage (S3 etc.) as CSV/Parquet/HDF5, a database query with well-defined (enough) criterion, or API calls.

> because the order of running the cells is arbitrary

Most people I know have to restart their notebooks often enough to have to re-run all cells again anyway. You usually get into a good habit of making sure they're mostly "in order", or grouping common code into cells to minimize the number of cell executions and ctrl+enter's needed.

> dreaded arbitrarily mutable global state

It's definitely a double-edged sword, but the global state is a big part of what makes notebooks so useful. I have a repl-based environment, the ability to run arbitrary code, and global state to iteratively explore the domain of the problem I'm working on. That sword cuts me many times along the way, but they're (mostly) nicks. But it's usually worth the output, especially to the business.

In all these instances, teams shared notebooks through git and most of the issues were simply understanding the context of their usage more than issues with their execution. I don't remember more than a few notebooks really being used by more than a few people anyway, so I've learned to consider them more as collaborative artifacts in an exploratory process to more mature, "packaged" code evolved from those notebooks.
I think people are missing the obvious problem with Trump from the perspective of the news media, which is that his messages often had two meanings. The literal meaning, and the pouring gasoline on racial tensions meaning. Why would news organizations publish unsubstantiated conspiracy theories that were just more racial bait? Trump doesn't get points for guessing or throwing baseless accusations any more than anyone else would.
I see this type of like used to justify whatever it is the speaker enjoys being forced on everyone else. Something like "everyone should learn philosophy because it trains the mind" usually means "I like philosophy and wish it was taught more at schools".

Jenkins can be relegated to simply launching tasks in other systems and having almost no state or configuration in itself then for your needs. One can lock down Airflow access to solely from Jenkins agents or setup an nginx proxy in front of it to protect it from prying eyes.

Jenkins is architecturally an artifact of enterprise software kitchen sinks for the 2000s and the way around it is to cut away at anything one doesn’t need out of Jenkins and to instill discipline in engineers to think about requirements carefully and to avoid hacking more and more into Groovy Jenkins libs than one would spend time actually doing work.

For a lot of what you’re describing Rundeck was built for this common case as essentially a central job portal, and at the least it supports more integration options than Jenkins. It’s difficult to wholeheartedly recommend it still given its surprisingly low rate of adoption. The market now is that for an OSS product a decent web UI with authentication is basically something to charge like it’s an enterprise product, and so lots of start-ups even today will begrudgingly fire up Jenkins in 2021.

I’m of the opinion that the time fighting Jenkins jobs and writing Groovy for common, trivial tasks in most CI systems is not acceptable in a start-up situation where strong focus and minimizing distractions / non-core work is so important for success. The kind of code to define a build doesn’t make sense for orchestration (it’s not just a digraph but about how to react to events and edge transitions) but it’s exactly how Jenkins DSLs work out.

Treat Science like a religion, you even used the word faith. It may often be more accurate, but at the end of the day, it's just another way of explaining things.

And if you ever think of science as perfect, just look at the history of science. There was a time where most scientists knew for a 'fact' that certain races were objectively inferior to others. Science is always being refined, new things are being discovered, and the people doing it change. Invariably, there is some scientific knowledge that will be discredited and changed in the future.

>One of the big warnings is that you should never take them if you took psychiatric medication last year

What business do the stable have taking psychadelics? The person in the prior story developed schizophrenia AFTER taking psychadelics.

I took SSRIs in the preceding year (not for a few months) and took psychadelics when already suicidal from personal distress. Is it not a logical progression to go from evidence based treatments to experimental ones? Do the math from the perspective of such a person taking some. You're either no longer in distress or no longer in distress. It may not even result in any net gain in suicidality in the long term, just a gain in decisiveness, an exit from limbo. The equivalent of doing a dangerous operation but on your mind.

What is completely irrational to me is people who have no such feelings risking developing a mental disorder from the strength of psychadelics. You already started out with a happy life and yet are willing to risk ruining all that and becoming suicidal. To me that seems far more reckless. I would compare it to a perfectly healthy person doing a dangerous surgery but seeing themselves as taking less risk due to lower absolute mortality. Yet the risk is actually much higher since they weren't facing death to begin with and thus had no potential to lower ones chance of mortality.

Is there even a shred of evidence that populations without a psychiatric history have better outcomes from psychadelics? I can't help but feel patronized by amateurs in psychiatric drug use.
I take it that you are operating under the assumption that this soy myth absolutely must not be true?
