These are just a few of the positive developments that I'm aware of.

However, I agree a lot more could be done. At the same time I feel we're reaching a tipping point where regulation and innovation will lead to a the rapid decarbonisation of society. Unfortunately, I'm uncertain this decarbonisation will happen quickly enough.
I remember it differently as not a "lab leak hypothesis" but a claim that the virus was not from nature but was a man-made virus, to wit:

Yeah it's tough. I don't think my partents are terrible people. They are products of their own trauma and struggles and stuff. At the end of the day the relationships were just bringing a lot fo negativity into my life and I just didn't have the energy for it.

In terms of the other ways to produce my experience without the downsides, absolutely yes and if I have kids I intend to try to do exactly that. They would have the final decision on it and it wouldn't be a surprise but basically some kind of intensive month or two outdoor survival training or something like that. Maybe I'd even just do it myself with them.
Q: Aren't you afraid that Stripe will eat your lunch?

A: Uhhh...
> But, if you're comparing to Stripe I think it's fair to show the fee differences for straight credit card payments.

The only thing that matters is the bottom line for end customers. They either pay by credit card or PayPal (I know there's Apple Pay and crypto too, but let's ignore those for now).

If the customer uses a credit card they don't care if Stripe or PayPal processes it. They just want to enter in their credit card and be done with it.

Most businesses will be using Stripe's credit card forms for that because it lets you embed the form into their page so the customer doesn't need to leave. Stripe's API is also a billion times better than PayPal's so I can't imagine anyone will realistically want to use PayPal's API directly to embed a credit / debit form (assuming this is even an option).

However when folks want to pay using PayPal, there is only 1 option of using PayPal with their associated email address. There's no escaping this price increase short of dropping all support for PayPal, which is going to be a very big net loss from loss of sales from anyone who doesn't have a credit or debit card.

So yes, this is a direct price increase to continue using PayPal and it's unrelated to Stripe also supporting credit cards.
Except we've already reached higher saturation (for black body radiation absorption) with CO2 than with methane. So, there is certainly a strong case to be made that methane is more impactful in the short-term than CO2 in terms of climate warming.

> Many people pushing Ivermectin have a vested interest in proving the vaccines are unnecessary.

What is their vested interest in a generic, cheap, decades old, off patent drug? Vested interests tend to be in new, patented treatments. That's where big pharma profit is. So let's try a rephrase: Many people pushing patented treatments have a vested interest in proving off patent alternatives are unnecessary.

For example, here's Merck warning against using Ivermectin for Covid-19:

Maybe just use ipycanvas instead - it's on PyPI :) It works the same way except it's not a hack. I found it after I posted.

I went through:

- matplotlib animations (super slow, not live)

- writing an image with PIL and updating display (flickers)

- custom html+canvas code

- ipycanvas

I call display() on the canvas and then run the draw update loop on the canvas later in the same cell. That way the canvas is first displayed and then "live" updated.
Yeah, but in the context of games, most likely it means threaded code written in C or C++.

If anything Spectre has shown us that the only real mitigation is to go back to multiprocessing with IPC, with the extra hardware resources it entails, as the exploit exists regardless of the language for in-process memory.

I happen to be an expert (read: flailing desperately to do this work right) at the moment, and I thought a lot like you a year plus ago.

Oh God... How that view has changed. As a manager, if you're actually trying to make your team's lives easier, it's bloody hard work. I started out as the first IC and sort of had my role take shape from there.

I know where the skeletons are, and spend a great deal of time making sure my people know about them before falling victim to them. I'm often troubleshooting cross-team problems, and either localizing the nebulous stuff to a particular team, or getting the best teams to work together to resolve the issue in the same room, talking, and understanding each other. I'm sanity checking requirements, auditing everyone's meetings, to make sure important things propagate beyond team's silos.

I'm constantly switching between an understanding of work about 3 weeks minimum ahead of everyone else, and now, trying to figure out if divergences from what's planned is just statistical noise or something to worry about.

Then there is the HR side. Everyone has their own bucket of stuff, and it's my job to help make sure they have the tools they need to overcome it. Sometimes this means looking up weird jurisdictional things, rewriting a job description, shuffling around work, book or resource recommendations, or sometimes long after hours calls or the occasional emergency interference running. There's also making the hard calls on whether someone's forseeable future is going to be upset or not. I'm not jaded enough to just not care anymore, so I always try to make sure if a hard call has to be made, I can make sure everyone involved leaves with something in the sense of a possible new direction. That's not part of my JD but something I just feel like should be done and I'll continue to do until a really unlucky streak of bad hires beats it out of me I guess. I hope by that time I won't need to do this anymore.

The way I see it, I'm sacrificing my ability to shut up and engineer the stuff I like (software) to make sure my teams can concentrate on just doing what they are best at, and I'm context switching too much to do reliably anymore. The fact is, all these "odd-jobs" have to get done to ensure the organization runs and someone has to do it... Might as well be the one who knows the org best until I've got others trained up and confident enough to do the same.

Re: Expensive proxies
I try to act as the anti-proxy. When I see bad communication, I try to get people circled around in the same room looking at the same things. My goal is not to say X has it all wrong to Y, and Z, but getting X, Y, and Z all saying the same thing about the same thing.

Sometimes you have to unlearn organizational habits to come to terms with what's actually going on. My higher ups may share your sentiment of that making me an "expensive proxy" but after the second or third projectt that has to get redone, eh, the grumbling quiets down.

Haven't been fired yet! So there's that!
So you'd rather not listen to other scientists, doctors, and pharmacologists with real world experience with these drugs for your own research purposes? I mean, if you had YouTube videos explaining your research results, I would watch it.
In the EU you actually have something similar. You have the warranty given by the merchant, which can be voided by breaking stickers, appendixes, etc. and the legal warranty (in German it is called Gewährleistung) which cannot be voided by stickers or tricks like this.

However, if you want to invoke your legal warranty more than 6 months after purchase date YOU have to prove that your modifications didn't cause the defect.
My fellow Americans definitely aren't, for the most part, particularly adventurous about food. I'm game for pretty much everything, personally. I didn't care for haggis, but I mostly objected to the oatmeal flavor and texture, rather than the animal innards. Although I do like black pudding. I suppose the oatmeal percentages are different.

> sheep instead of pigs doesn't make a whole lot of difference.

Oh it sure as heck does to me. Pig in all forms is heavenly. Sheep is almost always way too gamey for me, although I did have some killer lamb chops in South Africa once. But the flavor of the meat and dairy products reminds me of the smell of the sweat from the various goats I grew up with. No thank you.
If you're interested in interactive theorem proving with Lean (and not condensed mathematics), the Lean community landing page is a good place to start. https://leanprover-community.github.io/

Especially the "Natural Number Game" under "Learning resources" has been successful in teaching folks the very basics for writing proofs. Once finished, a textbook like "Theorem Proving in Lean" can teach the full basics. Feel free to join the Lean Zulip at any point and ask questions at https://leanprover.zulipchat.com/ in the #new members stream.

Mathlib has plenty of contributions from interested undergrads :)
There's also dealing with the issue of federal and state losses from taxes from fuel, these will need to be offset. Between state and federal, it's anywhere from .40c or more per gallon in taxes now lost. That's money put towards roads and maintenance (somewhere). I imagine we're going to end up seeing a mileage use tax on EV's as well.

Likely because it's being perceived as a third party app that was just arbitrarily installed. At least it can be presented that way, which is enough to get the story to spread.

It's honestly not that far off from the truth. Just because google uses your phone as a personal playground all the time doesn't make this instance any more or less outrageous. If this is what it takes for it to be perceived as outrageous as it is, then fine.

Not seeing anything wrong, but it’s C so who knows ;) Thankfully, the primitive I (and memccpy) provide makes writing your wrapper easy and efficient, as opposed to all the other functions which don’t compose at all. (From my phone) I think this might work?

char *result = strxcpy(dst, src, len);
return result ? --result : result + len;

> Why not take the approach of “let’s see how I can adapt to this”?

Our computers (and phones) are not fashion. They are tools, they are commoditized.

Let's change everything every two years: you screws and screwdrivers, controls in your car (with everyting going touchscreen, that's exactly what we'll soon get), buttons in your elevators, plane controls, heart monitors...

See, how stupid "let's wait and adapt to this" sounds?
Yarn got most of its popularity during a time when it was clearly ahead of npm in every way, but saw its share dropped when npm caught up. IMO Poetry came a bit too late; it would have been a tremendous hit in like 2015, but as the timeline be it is the leap forward is simply not enough. (Incidentally I think the same is happening for Yarn v2 as well; very good ideas, but too minor for most users to care.)
If you are pinned to a core, as non burstable instances should be, you are still pretty much vulnerable. Having noisy neighbours will pollute caches and make extracting data harder, but, eventually, everything will leak out.

I’ve been thinking what would happen if cores would be pinned to separate security domains - all kernel processes run on one set of cores and user processes on others. I imagine microkernel OSs could go that way much easier. If kernel and user space communicate only by messages and shared data, there’s no reason they’d need to even share an ISA.

Sort of. Thermoelectric coolers transfer heat from a "cold side" to a "hot side", and generate a lot of additional heat in the process. They can be part of a cooling solution, but you still need active cooling (like a heat sink and fan) for the hot side -- they don't just "generate cold" in the kind of way that a resistive heater can generate heat.
My beef is mostly with the lack of consistency with the control panel and settings. They have "Win10"ed most of it by now, though, but for several years you had this weird, often overlapping set of UIs from Win7 and Win10.

Minor things like Win10 vs. Metro are less obvious, though.

Without trivializing the work and scholarship, are there generalized take-away messages that you think the public should know from Questioning Collapse? Or is it mostly of interest to people seeking to understand the specific societies addressed?
I've been using Python since the 2.3 days, and it's great to see it become so popular.

But lately I think the language has grown more complex, new functionality is being added all the time.

I feel this is unfortunate in some ways. It's not so true anymore that "there's one way of doing things, and it's obvious", which was one of the best things about the language IMHO.

My feeling is the language developers should slow down a bit on new features and focus on packaging and speed.

Still, it's a great, flexible language, and I think it will keep on being relevant for a long time.
no, CAs can't do that.
Wow, this is really cool. Is there anything similar for Steam?
The Manager's Path, by Camille Fournier is my personal favorite. Highly recommended.
Just the other day, I was talking about the difficulty of monetizing an app I wanted to build with my partner. We agreed that the app had an extremely small target audience - university types for whom the app would provide hundreds of dollars of value a year (paid out of their grants, not their salary). The problem is that absolutely no one pays >= $100 for a phone app.

Adobe was in the same situation years ago. It provided products generating thousands of dollars in value a year for professionals and the corporate world. Photoshop CS6 cost $700, the version of it for "students" $250. This put it well out of the budget range of most ordinary people. Photoshop was built for a relatively small target audience. You might argue that piracy was the normal, expected solution to this. The "real" customers were supposed to pay for it. Either way, this generated a lot of ill will toward Adobe and turned pirating Photoshop into a bit of a meme.

That changed when Adobe realized you could nickle and dime people out of the same amount of money in the long run. The photography subscription (Photoshop + Lightroom) costs $720 over six years. Given that Adobe offered upgrade promotions (e.g. CS5 to CS6) for about half off, it's roughly the same price as it was before. This approach makes it much more palatable to the average consumer (for the same reason that people are willing to buy sofas on payment plans). The only people this pisses off are a handful of hardcore users who expect to "own" all the software they use, but probably not the corporate world which is used to paying subscriptions. It almost certainly makes them far more money through making the software available to those who can't (or won't) pay the one-time price.
Big problem with C is the standards committee just flat out refuses to add an array type to C. It's deranged because if you had first class arrays it'd be a lot easier to generate code that takes advantage of SIMD instructions.

When you talk about performance hit, are you under the impression that moving this to the server side would be faster? No. So what is the alternative?

If you move everything to apps, apps become the vector.

Here’s the thing I don’t understand, why are licenses required for engineers? Is it an ethics thing? This reminds me of the guy here in Portland that told the city their traffic lights were wrong and they fined him for not having an engineering license.

I don’t have a degree, no license, or accreditation, yet I’ve worked for government contracts, medical software, and designed hardware for doctors. Would I then be sued for giving advice from my proven track record? I’ve never called myself an engineer yet most of my job titles say Engineer.

The feeling of losing my freedom definitely got me started thinking about poltical philosophy at a young age in a very organic way.

Why do we have rules. Who should get to make and enforce rules. When should I follow a set of rules that are laid out for me. I don't think many 23 year olds have too many deep thoughts on stuff like that but I had a more intuitive sense of my own answers to those questions at that age after having the sense of losing my freedom and being treated in a manner that I perceived as deeply unfair.
