Interesting. I've purchased a CrowdSAFE with Republic and I think that aligns with what I remember about the CrowdSAFE.

Recently though I bought shares in a private company through wefunder and the docs specify I'll be a unitholder in an SPV LLC set up by wefunder that will own the stock, so I wonder if this prohibition changed with the $5m cap change?
you're conflating "pushing for further tests" with "pushing for further treatment.' IMO, everyone should be entitled to as much data accumulation as they want. Insurance companies can set reasonable thresholds, but if I want to pay out of pocket to get bloodwork done, that should be easy to get.

Whether or not a doctor prescribes/advises a certain treatment is still firmly in their domain. The amount of biomarkers/biological evidence a patient has shouldn't sway a doctor's decision to alter a treatment plan. As a reasonably smart non-medical professional, I would rather have more data than less data, and it's paternalistic and a little condescending to say "no, you shouldn't actually take diagnostic tests because 'having that information might freak you out'"
I think Joe Duffy mentioned somewhere that if Rust was around when they started Midori, that would have been their option instead of creating System C# (aka M#), but I cannot find that quote.
Kundalini yoga works great for my shoulder-sleep issues. Perhaps it can help others?
In the video on the site they show a robot arm plucking carrots out of the ground and placing them into a basket, but that might have been from one of the research basket.
But shipping them to you sounds reasonable, although packaging them so they don't rot and the distance might nullify any real ecological advantage.
I really dislike this because it violates the user's assumption that the action they are in control of, "send message," represents a hard barrier between committing and not committing to their wording.

Unsavory.
If it were ASCII and UTF-8 that this was all about, it wouldn’t be as big a deal. But it’s not.

Python 2 was a code pages world. Not an ASCII world. Also Python’s Unicode isn’t and hasn’t ever been UTF-8 anywhere; rather, it’s sequences of Unicode code points (note that that’s code points, not Unicode scalar values−this and the representation of str are a pair of things I find quite bafflingly bad about Python 3, because it means Python’s Unicode strings aren’t, y’know, Unicode strings, because they can be ill-formed, and they’re stuck with bad fixed-width representations so that any even vaguely interesting string will be stored as (ill-formed) UTF-32).

Python 2’s str type was a mess, used for bytes data, for strings of uncertain encoding, and for Unicode strings. In a vacuum, you might say you could make that work by splitting it up (and indeed the types module was an early endeavour to do that sort of thing back before it became evident it was insufficient). The key is that this confusion and widespread misuse was rife through the standard library and other third-party libraries. If the Python 2 → 3 transition had been just str-as-bytes/str-as-who-knows-what/unicode → bytes/something/str, it might have been manageable. But the libraries were so shot that a straightforward migration was impossible, because str was too many things and it was quite impossible to tell statically what should be done about it. (And impossible dynamically to resolve as well.)
I have been downvoted for saying this before but I will say it again

Indeed, the money should flow from app stores to developers and not the other way around

Developers provide value to their platforms. Developers don't need them except for the fact that they enforce a monopoly on distribution (iOS)

The day is coming when platforms will have to reward content creators based on usage metrics or simply up front. Platform subscriptions, micro payments, or platform ads are the future. And they will only get cheaper as time goes on

A ruling forcing Apple to open up iOS to different browsers or app stores will be the sign that change is coming
What are you focusing on there? C++ scripting or the visual scripting?
Just this week I started looking into Gmail alternatives (as well as de-Googling myself as much as possible) and while I haven't pulled the trigger on anything yet, Fastmail is looking like the top contender at the moment.

Hey was on the table for a bit, but no matter how much I read about their alternative workflow, I just don't understand how it would be an improvement over my typical method of archiving emails as I get through them. My email is essentially just a to-do list. Once I've dealt with something, into the archive it goes, and I don't think about it again unless it shows up in a search result when I'm looking for something later.

I've just never had a problem with it so I don't see a need to reinvent the wheel and learn a new method of using email.
At the end of they day class names like that solely come from the GOF design patterns. Nothing to do with any language. I think I’m ready to leave the software industry now too to be honest.
Is there anything that prevents one million of these recipients from all being the same corrupt official?
Exactly. "Citizen-owned" is half-right. FOSS gets you the rest of the way.

ltree looks interesting. I've used MSSQL's HierarchyID extensively for this sort of thing. Are they similar or is there something else like HierarchyID for PostgreSQL?
I see where you're coming from, but I strongly disagree since you said "coding". I actually feel like the coding part of game dev is quite rote, boring and pretty much totally figured out. At least, for games that smaller teams or individuals can make. One of the best games ever made imo, Hollow Knight, was made with virtually no code at all. They used Playmaker, a visual game scripting engine for Unity.
That's really difficult. Do you find your mind just going insane until you start to do something?
> Retailers are also have strict liability for the products they sell. When something goes wrong, it is up to them to make customers right and go after the manufacturer to recover those damages.

That's sonewhat misleading about how chain-of-commerce strict liability works. The injured party can sue any/all parties in the chain of commerce directly, its not that the retailer is exclusively directly responsible, and then they have to work up the chain.

This is a detailed refutation of that paper: https://pekingnology.substack.com/p/who-really-owns-huawei-a...
It goes into the specifics of the Chinese laws governing employee share ownership, and why the employee shares are held by the union (it has to do with arcana of 1990s-era Chinese laws governing stock distribution by non-publicly-traded companies). Balding & Clarke fundamentally misunderstand why the union is used as a share-holding vehicle, and what the legal implications of that are.

"Independent unions are illegal in China with only the All-China Federation of Trade Unions permitted to operate."

"The Trade Union Law in China forces the all trade unions in China dependent with the Communist Party of China."
It's such a confusing slogan (probably on purpose, like most things political). I thought it meant to abolish the police. Even a quick search defines it as "prevent from continuing to receive funds".

If folks intend it to mean "reduce funds" or "reallocate funds", then we should say that.
From the video it seems like there's a model that can switch tools - so if you install a night vision camera, strong laser and train some sort of fancy model to detect slugs that are not currently obscured by leaves, you might be able to laser them.

Sorry, I definitely did not put as much thought into my comment as I should have and I left out the critical piece of information that really ticked me off. I'm one of the nerds who actually reads the privacy documents and Rally's privacy policy[1] has a section titled "How We Use Your Information" that includes:

> improving Mozilla’s existing products and services

> creating and developing new products

All of the marketing copy is about "donating" your data to important research and how "Big Tech has built its success by exploiting your data." Meanwhile Mozilla is doing the exact same thing they're criticizing "big tech" for doing. Tucked away in the fine print is the fact that your data _isn't_ just going to be used for research studies, it's going to be exploited by yet another for-profit tech company. They've just put a nice warm and fuzzy do-gooder wrapper on it.

If Rally is transparent about how your data is used like they claim to be they would either (1) not use your data in that way and exclusively allow the data to be used for research, as advertised, or (2) make it abundantly obvious it will be used that way.

3x 63A is the reasonable maximum a normal consumer would want at their house. Normal houses are around 3x 32A.

Everything over that is a commercial building and they get billed with different rules and measurements due to the equipment they tend to have. Something about three phase engines and power phases in commercial lighting. I zoned out during those meetings :D
Seconded about Fastmail. I use it to host mail on my own domain. I’m almost done migrating from Gmail to Fastmail.

I recently discovered their alias feature. It’s super useful for all those subscription things.
Lax enforcement is a separate issue from saying it's not possible to even write a useful law in the first place. Both are needed but the rules need to exist before we can even consider enforcement mechanisms.
I don't know about Twitter in particular, but it's fairly common for users to log onto accounts for various services on borrowed devices and then log out when they're done. So the device is only partially trusted, or only trusted for a limited amount of time.

If you want to say you'd never enter any credentials on any device that wasn't fully trusted, well 1. That just doesn't match how many people use accounts and devices, if you want a widely used service, you must account for it even if you'd never do it, and 2. It will still cause problems if you ever sell a device, or have to return a corporate/managed device after leaving a job, or return a device for repair, etc.
Any type of backwards compatibility breakage provides a decision point to either decide:

* do I put in the work to upgrade all my code so that it works with this new version?

* do I jump ship to some other library/language that I've been interested in?

In the Python 3 breaking case, it provided good reason for engineers at major enterprises to start building in Go instead of investing in the Python 3 upgrade.

Another debacle was Angular being completely backwards incompatible, giving an opportunity for React to gain mindshare.
Black lives matter doesn't have leaders. ANyone claiming to be is a charlatan. It doesn't matter what this person said, most BLM supporters and defund the police supporters don't want to abolish the police.
Hey, good question ^^ we built Catena which only collates apostolic Christian commentary, which primarily comes from pre-denominational writers. Early Christian commentary is a deep source of original Christianity, definitely helps with accurate interpretation of Scripture, and you can filter which writers you would like to read from in the settings. Hope you find it helpful (get.catenabible.com)
I agreed completely until I started playing Minecraft with kids. Once they taught me how to play, I got to see the amount of creativity within the game. From my perspective, it's a really amazing way to start instilling mathematical literacy in kids and the best part is that they have so much fun they don't even realize it. As an example, thanks to Minecraft, my five year old already has an understanding of exponents. I didn't do that.
That is a very important point. This is why multiple studies are needed that across time, location, culture, etc. The more data a doctor has the better decisions they can make for their specific patients.
> Now my dev job never really ends, I am constantly thinking about work related problems even while playing with my kids.

I don't know your situation in detail, but I have caught myself feeling like this in the past and it was completely self-imposed. I want to believe that my work is adding value (even putting aside big-picture questions of whether it's valuable to the world overall, just providing immediate value to the business & clients can be rewarding), and since you have so much leverage as an engineer to impact the experience of thousands or millions of users with your code it's easy to let that feeling expand into an unhealthy amount of pressure to put on yourself.

I have found that stepping back and being explicit about my expectations for myself and my work has helped a lot. There are some things that are entirely out of my control, so I definitely shouldn't let myself get stressed about those. There are other things that could be within my control but don't fall within a reasonable set of constraints that I choose to set for myself. I don't expect myself to never make a mistake, or to work 80 hour weeks. This latter category is less black and white and I still struggle with it sometimes. I do want to be committed to my job, I do want to be seen as valuable, and work my way toward promotions, but you can still do that in tech in while still maintaining some work/life balance.

Being a founder for a few years also helped my outlook on this a lot. As a founder, or I imagine a CEO, this type of intense self imposed pressure is seemingly very necessary in order to succeed. As an employee, you see a much smaller reward if things go well, and you should allow yourself to feel a much smaller amount of pressure/stress when problems arise.
If you like Funk, and Soul music you should check out Tim Maia. He did a creative job mixing up Brazilian music (samba and bossa nova) with American black music. He is one of my favorites Brazilian musicians. His voice is also outstanding. Check it out

I don't like overly tech-specific job titles, but "lead mighty boosh developer" sounds wonderful.

Every person saying "pythonic" instead of idiomatic would need to switch to "booshy" instead. The file extension would be .og (for old Greg).

Only pair programming would suffer as the main philosophy of the language would we coding in isolation.
During the time these meters were built Americans still paid to receive calls and SMS messages.
One part I'm still not 100% clear about after looking at the site and even your comment. Would people be running CodeGuru against their own internal AWS code, or against existing public open source Github projects, and sending PRs separately from AWS?
I was actually just over halfway through 3.091, and it was going quite well, but I had a slight uneasy feeling about knowledge gaps (all my chemistry knowledge is from high school). That's when I started 5.111, and it's really helping to solidify things.

I didn't know about Sadoway, the EdX course has a different instructor. But I checked some of his videos on OCW now, and I really like his enthusiasm!
This is just gaslighting though.

Pick a slogan with an obvious interpretation, tell everyone it isn't what you mean, tell everyone that the only people that really mean it are outliers, continue to push it hoping it really comes true.

A protest march and slogan graffiti aren't invitations to come converse, they are statements. Most of the people I meet might have vague sympathies for these messages but don't participate and obviously don't have those views.

When I see people shouting at each other in the street (in my own experience), chanting on megaphones, businesses boarding up their windows, and people piling trash on the street to keep police and others away... it isn't exactly an invitation to come see what people are about.

It's especially manipulative doublespeak. Say one thing, mean another, and demean anybody who dares to take your message at face value.

I'm judging people with what I see. I see the actual movement with either vague messages that are hard to interpret as not extreme and specific messages that are impossible to interpret any other way. The only people I see trying to have the "reasonable" message are folks online acting as apologists for the protests trying to defend what they "actually" mean with nothing to back up their claims.

The protest nearest to me and most recent for a couple of days had "DEATH TO US MARSHALLS" tagged on the boarded up window of a nearby business. You'll excuse me for not wanting to approach people still demonstrating in the presence of messaging like that.
You mean the Maori that in 1835 set out to murder every single man, woman and child of the peaceful Moriori people on Chatham Island just for sport? [1] Yeah I don't think so.

No. It's okay. I appreciate the advice.
Yes, I would like to live in that world as well.
Hi! Catena developer here :) I am Coptic Orthodox, and our team has had Catholic, Eastern Orthodox, and Protestant engineers. We do serve all Christians, with the service of apostolic Christian commentary. Happy to connect anytime and hear any thoughts! God bless!
Here are three quoted recipe instructions:

] "Add the onions to the skillet and increase the heat to medium-high. Cook until they begin to turn dark brown and somewhat soft, about 5 minutes."

] “Stir and fry for about 5 minutes or until the onions turn a medium-brown colour.”

] “Add the onion and cook for 8 to 10 minutes, stirring occasionally, until golden brown.”

How do you get "dark", "medium-brown", or "golden brown" in under 10 minutes, and without caramelizing?
But aren't police unions partisan in the US? Is a police officer standing outside a polling station representing their union's politics? Must feel so to some people.

But oh man, does the high ever hit when you finish building and tweaking some feature, and your dream gets a little bit closer to reality. The video game you imagined playing, sometimes actually in your dreams, sits right there in front of you... maybe not close to completion but a little bit closer. And you can share it with your close network of playtesters a.k.a. friends and family.
What's old is new again, I remember when flash flash revolution was the thing everyone did in all the computer labs in highschool.

If everything that was popular to teens during the flash era has a shot, I prognosticate we'll see haxe ways to box celebrities.. uhh elaborately choreographed stick figure violence, and a whole lot of things that are based off old warcraft 3 custom maps. Also winter bells. Definitely winter bells.

Still you've got RF meters shouting their statistics to everyone.

The Germans would have a fit about that. It's illegal to measure electricity with under 24 hour granularity in Germany and IIRC in Switzerland. And there are really specific rules on what can be measured and how much of the data can be stored in the meter.
Thanks a lot for the answers. And for everything else, too!
Ok, fair enough. But I don't think I want to support a creator who wants me to watch ads. Sorry, I'm sure this discussion has been had a million times..but if you want to support them, why not give them money directly, and..then you get to not spend some sizable fraction of your life watching ads. Your mind deserves better. But I don't know—personally, I loathe ads, maybe you like watching them.
I meant to say “man your problems are real, but they have been a problem for a big portion of the society for a very long time and they wish they could act on it, maybe be a bit more sensitive about it”
There are a few advantages: the beds are raised do you don't have to bend over as far to tend them. The beds make it obvious where the place to walk is. The beds mean instead of rows of plants you have a contained solid mess which in turn means more plants per area (this is good for some plants, bad for others). Tilling is bad for soil and should be avoided whenever possible, the beds make it easier to not disturb the soil in ways that need tilling to fix. The beds allow you to have the type of soil best for the type of plant you are trying to grow - fertilizer doesn't change soil types.

Nothing magical about it, there are some advantages to raised beds, but other than the ergonomics everything can be done in any other type of garden if you try.
This is a broken model when the consequences of making the mistake can be so dire. At the extreme end of this, sure, the "free market" can punish United Carbide by driving them out of business after they killed 3000 and poisoned half a million people in India, but what good does that do the people who got killed?

Markets can only behave reactively, but some harms need to be mitigated proactively.
This. Throughout my years it was very common to see juniors trying to model static website dropdown menus as recursive database tables.

In practice if a menu has more than 3 levels the user experience will suffer. I keep them at 2 submenus max, possibly 1 if I can get away with it.

Not to mention most menus are not dynamic, meaning they can be just a JSON file or simple HTML.
I went to one of these places in the early 2000's. It's difficult to wrap your mind around it. it was most definitely a cult

Some thoughts
- archive.org has most of fornits
- hashtag breakingcodesilence on pretty much any social media platform. tiktok has quite abit
- a SURPRISING amount of 'counselors' account for their time at these schools on linkedin. some are even licensed now (bravo?).
- this individual who has since passed away did a great job at documenting CEDU - https://survivingcedu.wordpress.com/cedu-documentary/
- at a high level there was a literal cult known as the Church of Synanon which was disbanded in the 70's by the federal government. This cult's purpose/mission was to save people from addiction by brainwashing/abuse/prophets. These principles then created the concept of 'theraputic boarding schools'. It has since hydra'd as it is an unaccountable industry and certain states have laws create conditions for less oversight.
- The school I attended, the headmaster was from a cedu school that was shuttered, his qualifications was a degree in creative writing. There were maybe 6-10 counselors from other schools who then taught the hired 'uninitiated' counselors who themselves were typically 18-25 years old, without any college education. Students that excelled at these schools sometimes became counselors themselves.
