Yeah is that poster saying the division between the different Christian stances is against the Bibles message and one side or both is not in accordance with the words of the Bible.

Or are they trying to suggesting the act of pointing out the very clear different and incompatible beliefs between two different Christian groups is actually the division the Bible is against.

Hard to tell which, but those two readings are basically the opposite of each other.

The problem is that people entangle their sense of identity with their opinions. (I think PG had an essay on HN recently that talked about this - he called out religious and political opinions in particular.)

So their opinions aren't up for discussion. If you disagree with them, they feel offended and personally attacked.

Your citation contradicts itself. The polygon jitter exists for lack of floating point unit. While it's possible to emulate the necessary precision, it's uneconomical without the acceleration provided by a dedicated processing unit. Without floating point, the PSX isn't fast enough to render complex scenes in real-time accurately; Hence the jitter.

> to prevent these power imbalances and pressured sex in the workplace

The power imbalances and pressures are the same for picking up dry cleaning.

Sexual consent is treated differently because of how the laws shaped our views of prostitution. If prostitution, legally speaking, becomes a normal job like serving ice cream or sweeping the floor, then your sideline example naturally follows and is not some kind of exceptional case.
I suspect you are confusing using characteristics to correct for existing bias versus using characteristics for discrimination itself. Specific scenarios may help us explore this better.

I mean, your points are pretty subjective.

You've also extrapolated your anecdotes to make a sweeping statement that implies that all FP is spaghetti.

You've made no objective counterpoints. Reducing any platform or language to "bad" sounds like someone that never quite understood the benefits of FP. Imperative languages are no silver bullet. Literally every code base that I'd ever worked in exhibits the same issues you describe as "spaghetti". But how does FP make it more so?

Do you write unit tests? Tell me how you've not come across a codebase in a non-FP language that didn't require some insane fixture or factory or set-up code and it was insanely difficult to reason about because you had to invoke methods in a particular order to set an object up to be tested for a particular scenario. This is not the case with functional languages. You don't get the rug pulled out from under you very often and if so, it's typically centralized in the "actor" or process whose state can change whereas state is EVERYWHERE in most imperative languages and even challenging at times to introspect, especially when encapsulation is done right in some languages.

Just because you've written more detailed points does not mean that they're valid or good. It just means that you have thoughts.

If you've asked people to send you good projects, then you're already in a mental state that disallows you from accepting a good project. There are many. Don't ask, just search on GitHub -- many projects that don't even come from core devs. It's been much easier for me to reason about and push fixes to these projects compared to Ruby or JavaScript projects.

I mean, we get it. You hate Elixir and you hate FP. You're entitled to that opinion, but please don't tell others to stop using it without having worked with it heavily and an accepting mentality to dig beyond the surface.

I don't see any irony there, because there is a huge difference between accepting that certain personal characteristics shouldn't matter, and accepting that people nevertheless do face a wide range of problems because of their personal characteristics that shouldn't matter. The former has experienced some progress as you mention (at least for what's considered acceptable to voice publicly), but the latter appears to be highly controversial.
Amazing hack, this is totally in the spirit of Hackernews, I wish there were more posts like this and less political, news centric stories.

I wonder if it is possible to completely remove opacity of old frames.
His stance is less confusing if you actually read it in context, instead of carless (being very charitable) summation that completely misses his point. Ignorance or malice? Either is terrible. Here's the relevant part from the introduction of his dissent. Note he doesn't have issue with the outcome, but the extremely sloppy and haphazard way in which the decision was outlined.

I quote: "The Court overrides that decision—without even mentioning the 150 years of history supporting the coach. Using broad brushstrokes, the majority outlines the scope of school authority. When students are on campus, the majority says, schools have authority in loco parentis—that is, as substitutes of parents—to discipline speech and conduct. Off campus, the authority of schools is somewhat less. At that level of generality, I agree. But the majority omits important detail. What authority does a school have when it operates in loco parentis? How much less authority do schools have over off-campus speech and conduct? And how does a court decide if speech is on or off campus?
Disregarding these important issues, the majority simply posits three vague considerations and reaches an outcome.
A more searching review reveals that schools historically could discipline students in circumstances like those presented here. Because the majority does not attempt to explain why we should not apply this historical rule and does not attempt to tether its approach to anything stable, I respectfully dissent. "

If you actually read his dissent, instead of a hack summary, you would see he thinks they didn't go far enough in constraining the schools. Quite the opposite of what is implied by CNN.

21 Billion per year is close to the annual ACH transaction volume measured in count of transactions.

The total value of those transactions in dollars is somewhere over $50T (Trillion) dollars.

1% of that is $500B.

>“shut the fuck up, TERF” (trans-exclusionary radical feminist, a slur)

I stopped reading there. The protestors are framed as crazy and insane but TERF is a slur, there's no "opinion" marker on the article, it's pretty clear the author is coming from a biased perspective although framed as objective. When they can't even start the article of a controversial topic with even a weak attempt at objectivity I know enough not to indulge.
Well, while it could be argued that sex is biological given, it is surely that our society overstates the difference between men and women - plus our current society still aims to standardises / normalizes all other sexes. The social meaning of being male, of being female etc. is still socially constructed and therefore which sex you are born into has measurable impact on your life, your chances in terms of career.
I agree except that I don't think we understand which ways of dividing ourselves are really biologically (including psychologically) important and which are just cultural and can be changed with the right environment. Culture often encodes biological needs that we don't really understand.

They can’t deny it and it only benefits them (they can increase their ratios of minority employers which is public data).

I think we should accommodate trans people as much as we can, up to and including letting them be legally be considered the sex of their belief as long as they have transitioned to some degree, by taking hormones or surgery.

However, I disagree with getting rid of biological sex. It’s absurd. Even down to the genetic level there is a biological definition of male and female and to say there isn’t is anti-science. We shouldn’t destroy science over this.

Because of that I also don’t believe that trans women should be allowed to compete in competitive sports especially those that have dedicated their lives towards it. To put it in perspective, Serena Williams, one of the greatest if not the greatest tennis athlete of all time. She and Venus Williams were destroyed in her prime by the 200th ranked tennis player. The male tennis player felt like they were equivalent to a 600th ranked male player. The point being, you can’t make up for some genetic differences between men and women.
It makes me think that actually, the war had the same imposition of "stiffness" to all its biggest players. The US, Japan, the nascent EU and even the former Soviet Union all had a defined "place in the world" in the post-war order and followed more-or-less the same trajectory with their domestic economy. Gradually things started slipping, the Soviets being the obvious first to collapse, but everyone started running into some issues later in the 20th century and started kicking the can down the road to address them.

Countries outside of those great-power roles in the conflict didn't end up on the same timeline and so are landing in a different place today. Australia or Taiwan for example; both changed status and became markedly more independent.
Europe doesn't create Ubers because it doesn't have the capital. its not to do with innovation.

Of course, that on its own is not enough to prove that all of the excess deaths are due to COVID.

But when you have the count of COVID deaths, and they more or less match up with the number of excess deaths, I think it's a reasonable conclusion. Sure, there are excess deaths not accounted for and we can dig into those, but overall, the numbers match up.

There's a bit of Occam's Razor here, too. We have an explanation with numbers that match up quite nicely. Yet, due to the politicization of the pandemic, you have claims that "we don't know for sure" or worse yet, alternate theories with absolutely zero evidence to back it up. I'm open to hear theories, just as long as there is data to support them. I haven't seen any.

Good question. I too had this question.
In good faith and not as whataboutism:
Do you think being forced to impregnate someone against your will is similarly horrific although less burdensome for the first 9 months?
I'm not sure why you think the "Models/textures flicker due to lack of Z-buffering" is not accurate. I mean, sure, models/textures can flicker for other reasons too so technically that can be inaccurate but lack of z-buffer is one of the most common reasons since the majority of 3D games software relied on z sorting polygons that couldn't always be sorted perfectly (static geometry could be preprocessed with, e.g., a BSP tree, but as long as dynamic geometry entered the picture things became much hairier).

Or is it that it isn't a problem of PS1 but a problem of games - which, again sure, this might be true but that'd be the splittiest of hair splitting :-P it is the lack of a hardware feature that drove the games do what they do, so it isn't entirely "blameless".
Certainly I am finding it very difficult to be heard. As a member of the trans community I’ve tried to be kind and helpful in my comments in this thread but I’m getting downvoted to hell.

I just really want people in this thread to learn about emotional labor and to consider what they’re asking of marginalized people when they want to “discuss” the validity of their needs.
I have only met one of the "world's richest people" on the list you linked and he is very hard working but I think the conclusions drawn from extreme outliers may not be applicable more broadly.

I think perhaps we're talking about different things? I don't think it's fashionable to be a victim or that people have no control over their fate. Hard work (along with intellect and luck) generally helps people move up in life, and the people I know who have moved up the most in their lives are generally also the smartest and hardest working, so it would make logical sense that most people at the very top have worked hard to get there. After all, not many people out there can fall down a couple rungs and still be at the top of the ladder, right?

But beyond those extreme outliers, most people in the US (which ranks 27th in social mobility according to the world economic forum[1]) seem to end up within a rung or two of where they were born. So I suppose how "meritocratic" the US is probably depends on what you mean by the word.

I just checked out their website. There is another website called floorplans.com which I'm pretty sure is legit (they will sell you construction plans) and I found some very similar designs between the two.

So Design Basics is either stealing their designs from elsewhere, or as the article points out, their designs are so generic they end up matching existing designs.

Part of the issue with Jira is that it's possible to make it incredibly painful.

Stock Jira is not substantially worse than any other bug tracking system, other than being proprietary.

However, Jira is incredibly customizable, and if your organization adds a dozen mandatory custom fields, Jira can become horrific to use.

Workflow customization is one of Jira's selling points, and also one of its biggest dangers.

There's some value in a system that doesn't allow that level of workflow customization, and instead forces everything into a fairly simple and lightweight issue-tracking framework.

I personally am hopeful about this GitHub feature, but I do think there's a real danger of losing usability here.

> it is a myth that most rich people inherited their wealth.

No one here has said that. More importantly, your link doesn't dispute that either. It simply says that billionaires, who are on the extreme, don't inherit most of their wealth -- despite the fact that 45% of them at least partially did so.

I've long argued that until we send all kids, rich and poor, to academies at birth with no further contact or tracing to their parents, we won't really understand the full impact of advantages bestowed by wealthy parents.
May I also add that prior to the current wave, educators were of opinion that kids need to be protected, at any cost, even to the point that grading system discriminates against kids, it can make them feel inferior. Now they basically shove every kid into corner, either as an oppressor or a victim.
Just want to say thank you for taking the time to express your perspective on this, particularly as a heavily affected individual in these matters.

My personal experience of living and working,traveling with,family,friends,etc of all kinds of people including trans,gay,all the variants has left
me with no conclusions whatsoever.
On occasion someone would comment

have never agreed,quite,my take is that there ARE all kinds and the world goes around anyway,and if you
think that you are adjusted and are
good with everyone then you dont
get out much,cause if you are out there meeting new people in new situations well outside of your core group ,then you will find that
there is no damn normal and a great
deal that is just plain incomprehensible.
Gender has become a team sport,and
I have heard it said while with friends that so and so is "profesionaly gay" in that they have employment as a cultural sensitivity officer in a large organization and tend to become insuferable to all.

F to M tranies often bail out of
the "therapy" and come out with a new respect for men,in that having
testosterone in thier system drives
them to rage and anger and violence
and they are astounded that men are
not much much much worse that we are.

I don't think that's necessarily correct. You can't even order a Librem 5 if you want it right now because of silicon shortages. You can purchase a Pinephone. Ignoring that, the price differential is insane (and I doubt people who would consider the Librem 5 USA are really saying "yes" or "no" based solely on the merit of the phone).

I think it's one thing to recognize that Purism is providing patches, but that doesn't translate to a device people can and want to purchase.

Cool. I don't blame him, and am happy to avoid many Apple products.

The iPad is being used by a five-year-old, and the iPhone is being used by my spouse, pretty much surfs the internet and makes phone calls.

It's weird to me that sexuality and identity are so intertwined. Why should someone "come out" as anything?

(I know a lot of people "come out" as various things in a mere bid for attention... I'll leave that issue aside.)

If I knew someone casually for a while who never talked about his/her sexuality, but one day they said "I never said this before, but I'm a heterosexual", I'd certainly feel awkward about it. Why did he/she say that to me?

To take it further, why phrase it "I am ..." instead of "I have ... desires"? If the latter sounds awkward, why is the former any less awkward?
