I'm not really here to argue about it.

Do I think that perhaps too much energy is devoted to this issue when there are a lot of other things going badly that need attention? Yes. Do I condemn people who disagree and prioritize issues of animal suffering over issues that are important to me? No.

I do think that the author of the article (and Mance, certainly) implies that I should be concerned about this, and that's where I take issue. I won't take issue with your calling this a moral issue either, although I think the argument could be made that it isn't.
Minor correction: I wouldn’t call Newton an “internally popular product”. At least, working on Newton I didn’t feel that way. And just before SJ came back, Apple had spun Newton out into a separate company because it wasn’t really fitting in. SJ spun it back in and killed it.
Odds are by the time he was done mucking around with all possible plex settings, the return period has passed
The Emacs experience on Windows could be faster, but having switched from Neovim to Emacs on macOS I do not want to go back to Neovim now (and I was running the Neovim 0.5/dev branch with LSP and treesitter integration for some time). Your time might be better spent on improving Emacs performance on Windows if you can. I haven’t used Emacs on Windows for a little while, but I wonder if running it via WSL2 with the new Linux GUI integration is better than the native Windows experience?

I spent months trying to mould Neovim into an IDE-style environment I could love (people seem split about whether Neovim should be an IDE or not, but it feels like it’s evolving in that direction).

I tried Doom Emacs because of the buzz around it, fell in love straight away, and built my own Emacs config from scratch to get a better understanding of Emacs (I like Doom, but I found it hard as a new Emacs user to grok the separation between Emacs/Doom/external packages; the appeal of Emacs for me is to shape the tool to your needs and to understand what the packages you’re using do and how to tweak and customise things).

Neovim is improving but it still falls short of Emacs by far in my opinion. Some things to be aware of from my experience of both environments:

Neovim UI is inconsistent. With Emacs I can have every package use Ivy for item filtering and selection, for example, where as Neovim plugins often end up inventing their own UI because there’s no real UI standard in the Neovim space. Even Neovim packages that build good UIs (telescope) feel buggy and laggy to me compared to Emacs equivalents. (I had a persistent issue with telescope where trying to close the popover would take multiple attempts or not work at all).

Package quality is _so_ much better for Emacs. I tried a bunch of different Vim/Neovim git plugins and none of them are close to magit. When I ask Neovim users what they recommend for git integration, they suggest plugins that don’t hold a candle to magit (fugitive), external CLI tools that aren’t integrated with Neovim (lazygit), or say something like, “just use git on the CLI via tmux or iTerm tabs! Vim isn’t supposed to be an IDE on its own - you compose Linux tools in isolation into an IDE”. That’s fine if you embrace that mindset, but I find it unsatisfying now that I’ve used magit for some time. It’s a similar story for pretty much every IDE problem space (projectile and Cider are so much better than their Vim equivalents, for example).

Documentation quality is generally much better with Emacs, particularly when writing plugins. (Lua APIs are documented for Neovim but not to the extent that Elisp functions are.)

Emacs Lisp is also so much nicer to work with than Vimscript and Lua. The ability to run expressions in the environment without reloading whole files or restarting is a superpower, especially when making plugins.

I don’t mean to crash the Neovim 0.5 launch party here – by all means try it! Just be prepared to trade some of your Windows speed-related frustrations for general UX/UI/polish pain points instead. :-)
When I was a boy I'd hook up a speaker to a phono input, which made a great PA system! An even longer wire attached to the phono input turned any amplifier into an AM radio.

A simple intercom is just two speakers, one on each end, wired together in a loop.
They’re probably comparable, but one advantage, no doubt due to our high costs, is that US hospitals tend to have a ton of resources and the latest equipment. This does make a difference if you have a condition that benefits from cutting edge treatments.

I recently had a family member get surgery for a life threatening condition where a cutting edge treatment greatly reduces complications. The equipment only exists in a small number of hospitals on the planet and their normal hospital, which wasn’t even a particularly fancy US hospital, had one. It's probably not an issue for small and rich countries though. Probably more-so for medium income countries.
The questions of pipelines in Canada is a really complex one - I am personally against any new pipelines being built but that oils going to keep being exported unless Alberta has a real change of heart and we're running out of small Quebecois towns[1] to burn to the ground when trains crash.

I think the reverse is more common.
There’s something really satisfying about making yogurt. I make it a gallon at a time in an instant pot. The family loves it.
I think it's much more complex than that. The Old Testament both insists you must treat strangers well, but also describes slaves and conquering Jericho. 'Thou shalt not kill', etc. however, are blanket statements.

We need more evidence and research; the Bible is long and we can find a statement here or there that supports almost anything. But as I said, while there are variations, much is the same.

I'll even speculate that it's predictable - I doubt I could walk into 99% of human communities in the history of the world and not have a reasonable sense of the morals (social customs might be tricky though!).
There's also the releases on the project that are formatted more like that: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitlab/-/releases

Does that help at all?
The caching is Gitlab CI biggest weakness IMHO, super slow, and as you said cache strategies are to few to be useful.
I fear most core features are done - the basics (CI, issues, merges) work very nicely, even though a bit spartan at some points, but it's not enough for Gitlab's sales to be where it needs to be. So to me it feels like Gitlab is now look for a problem to solve, which actually makes the product more confusing and less compelling unless you buy into their whole story

I wouldn't be surprised if at some point something like Gitea (no personal experience with it) will close the gap sufficiently for a lot of users to switch there, especially as the gitlab upgrade cycle becomes more tiring without seeming to add anything of real value

(I know I'm just a freeloader with gitlab CE, but at this point the only reason to upgrade is the monthly security vulnerability, and I just pray it hits sufficiently far away from the 22nd of the month that all the update bugs have been ironed out again)
Reminds me how much I loved CoffeeScript. The code really is beautiful.

I think at the moment there is an important difference that the OP is talking about, namely the ability of the artist to channel their intention into the work. I think even early synthesizers offered a degree of control which even if the results were other-worldly were still channeling the artist’s intention. At the risk of wading into the murky waters of defining “what is art,” I don’t really feel like feeding an ML model a short sequence of words is “art-ing.”

However I think you’re right that in the long run these types of technology will become another tool in the artist’s toolbox and are not in danger of replacing artists. But I also think the OP’s criticism is valid. I suppose you could argue this is a bit like early criticism of photography as “not art” and that feeding the model is like picking what to photograph and how to frame it and such, but I still feel like there is a key difference in terms of the ability to have an intention and to have some ability to foresee how that intention will be realized in the work. Feeding a model inputs and guess-and-checking the results until you get something cool does feel “less artistic” to me.
And there is evidence that the vaccine has no benefit on those infected [1]. Either way, this is clearly an open question, and avoiding the vaccine if you have been previously infected is, at minimum, a reasonable stance.

It's the difference between depending on state-run functions common to most/every state, like some state utility companies, policing, courts, food safety, etc, versus depending on the state for your very livelihood.

Only Ayn Rand fans would consider those things "the same".
Catherine's is a remarkable story. She wasn't just any queen dowager: she was the widow of Henry V, a practically mythical figure in British history. That made Owen Tudor the step-father to Henry VI, who unfortunately was rather a mess as king (mostly, I suspect, due to the fact that he became king as a baby and everything was messed up before he was even able to talk).

It makes her a rather dubious link in the claim that her grandson made after the York family finally wiped itself out. Henry Richmond had to say a combination of "Grandma was married to the best king ever" and "Besides, I just killed the old king and there's pretty much nobody left, wanna fight about it?"

I'm a bit surprised that more people don't see it as a Great Reset of the British monarchy, but given the way the Tudors petered out themselves (via the Stuarts) and they had to mail-order some new monarchs, first from the Netherlands and then from Germany, it's just one more thing.

Heartbreaking to hear. I hope you can find peace, shelter and safety. Hang in there, please.
The main irony I find in many people that "love animals" and are vegetarian/vegan is these people tend to be just as likely to lock their pet up in a cage for 8-12 hours a day while at work. Then of course they also don't play with them. So the animals is essentially in a prison of boredom and minimal variety of food. It's like the Twighlight Zone episode where the guy goes to hell basically being trapped in a room for eternity.
In older urban areas in the US (particularly NYC), you often see co-op buildings. In a co-op, you buy shares in a corporation that owns the building and get a proprietary lease entitling you to use of a certain amount of space, while in a condo you are buying the deed to the individual apartment you own.

On paper they're different means to the same end. In practice, condos typically have much less stringent approval requirements - board approvals, background checks, character references, and providing a summary of your complete financial situation beyond the details of how you'll be paying for the apartment are normal in a coop purchase process.

The result of this is co-ops tend to have lower turnover and stricter rules overall - in addition to often being cheaper. They also have their problems, because the approvals process can be a mechanism for discrimination against protected classes. But the general perception is that co-ops are harder to get into, and harder to get out of, so the residents (at least in theory) tend to be long term and community minded. In most states, condo boards don't get the right to be selective, and must accept the first applicant who is minimally qualified.

Condos tend to give more power to the individual owner, coops tend to give more power to the coop board.

I can't speak to how other parts of the world handle this problem, but even in the US there is at least one other common model.
The majority of the features covered in the video (close to 100%) are features in our Core (free) edition.

In addition, my #1 feature I shared was us moving our SAST feature from our paid version to the open source version. We're very proud of the value in our open source version, and are constantly reinvesting in it.
I hope things get better for you. And while everyone is different, a lot of studies these days are leaning towards neuroplasticity actually continuing pretty strongly even into old age. So don't give up. You may need to find good treatment for any learning disabilities, but you can always learn more.
Hey Alberta - do you mind shipping some of that electricity over to BC. We need a lot more juice to keep all of our AC units running.

My understanding is that O(5 uS) is achievable on optimized FPGAs with reasonably large networks. Because of the parallelization, large networks don’t add that much more latency as long as you have enough gates. But I have little experience on FPGA stacks, so can’t say for sure.

Even in software, I’ve been able to hit O(15 uS) using optimized FANN libraries. But the nets are far smaller than deep, and pretty ruthlessly pruned and compressed. Another trick that helps is pre-differentiating across all the variables you don’t expect to change on a latency critical event. E.g. if you’re running a liquidity take strategy, you can pre-differentiate assuming the opposite touch size and deep book stays constant, because you’re only gonna act following on an aggressor trade at the touch.
The Interlisp-D system from Xerox/... is available: https://interlisp.org . Expect a real parallel universe. Even for a Lisp programmer this will challenge what one expects from a development system.

The Symbolics system is only available as a pirated and slighty buggy software for Linux (also in VM running Linux). A better version exists, but that one is only available in limited commercial form. It's another parallel universe from 30 years ago. Most development basically stopped mid 90s.

“Microstructural abnormalities of fibers in primary sensory tracts and/or in tracts connecting multimodal association areas may result in loss of the precise timing of action potential propagation needed to accomplish accurate sensory processing and MSI.”

They’re measuring properties of this microstructure, not the delay it supposedly is responsible for.

But I’d point out that calling “a fraction of a second” “large” is making a big assumption about the fraction.
Not a welder, but I'm aware of inspection procedures that use gauges to determine compliance with expected "shape" and consistency thereof. Also, x-ray imaging of welds and ultrasonic inspection of welds is a thing. You said "looks correct" and visual inspection is a thing but there are a lot of facets to that visual inspection that require some experience and tooling (e.g. magnifying glass, lighting, etc).
Hey! We're not yet open sourcing our tech during our beta period, but you can watch out for it here: https://github.com/napkinhq. We'll likely have a release for any open source tooling.

It really does vary by individual. My mom is going through cancer treatment right now. 35K/month in medication and she pays $250. I don't expect surprise bills later. She had surgery 8 years ago for the same cancer and that was also $250, for a week-long hospital stay.

In my experience it does help to have an HMO. My mom uses Kaiser. So there's none of this in- vs out-of-network. One billing system, one insurance, etc. She has nothing but positive things to say about them. My dad had a similar experience towards the end of his life. He loved 'em. And nobody was left destitute as the result of his medical care.
To preface this, I would love to see oil sands production halted.

However, evidence seems to suggest it is far too idealistic to imagine a world where the oil manufacturers / countries leave all of that money on the table. In my opinion, this comes down to the demand side of the equation, and I get the sense that folks feel absolved of their own regional sins when they can still point to the supply side. We need to establish a new normal to handle the demand side, and that involves a few things even those calling for reducing oil production seem to abhor. As a minimum start, mass public transit, higher density living, much reduced meat consumption, reduced consumerism, smaller homes and lawns, local vacations, and higher upfront costs for energy efficient buildings and vehicles.

My townhouse community just found out about a construction defect that was causing water damage to some homes (some flashing was never installed). The builder is long-gone, having merged a couple of times over the years into one of the big national firms and is not able to be sued.

The board engaged the community's law firm to look into whether the community needed to be the one to pay for repairs or whether it should be left to the individual owners. [0]

The law firm did some truly amazing hair-splitting and decided that the inner part of the walls started at the inside of the brick & vinyl, and not with the wood sheathing underneath them, which is where the flashing would have been fastened.

So the good news is I'm not going to be hit with an assessment. The bad news is the board had the community's lawyers draft a finding against their own community. [1]

[0] Ordinarily in townhouses & condos, the owner is responsible for repairs to the inner part of the walls, and often the exterior windows & doors. You know this when you buy the house.

[1] Which is actually correct - the law firm's clients are the board, representing the community. Not the community itself. Doesn't change that it stinks.
No, everyone understood just fine. The point is that speakers behind an amplifier can’t be used as a microphone with just a software change. And if you’re worried about malicious hardware that would allow that, then you might as well be worried about an extra hidden microphone.
There doesn't seem to be any conclusions at all drawn by the journalist: it's literally a quote from a scientist that talks of the conclusion.
Although it's not that easy. Now the choice is either just rent or buy a single family home (which they may not be able to afford where they live). Eliminating the condo option forecloses ownership for many--and, for those who strongly advocate for urban density--disperses people over a much larger area.

But collective structures are difficult at all scales. Some people have a fair bit of money and want issues, even just aesthetic ones, fixed now. And others are probably living paycheck to paycheck.
> Bans other out-of-network charges without advance notice. Health care providers and facilities must provide patients with a plain-language consumer notice explaining that patient consent is required to receive care on an out-of-network basis before that provider can bill at the higher out-of-network rate.

This seems like a really big loophole. I was just at the hospital for the birth of my daughter. My wife and I checked in at the OB desk where they asked for acknowledgment that we may be seen physicians that aren't part of the hospital (out of network).

We acknowledged, so surprise medical bills are fair game now?

Where are the protests? Where is the outrage? Do most Americans even know who Julian Assange is

Most American's probably don't actually know much about him. They may have encountered a few stories over the years-- in many cases just the headlines.

There wouldn't be outrage & protests for a few reasons:

1) The news stories people have read would frequently have been about him helping hack US computers, often with the added context of his rape prosecution, so there wouldn't be a lot of automatic sympathy.

2) The testimony retraction is only a few days old, so not much time to get upset especially without greater media coverage.

3) The story is basically "Witness lies to FBI". People aren't going to take to the streets over that. If the DoJ still go after Assange, that would be worse, but I still don't think we'd see much protesting for 1 more main reason:

4) Americans have more than enough sources of outrage much closer to home. If something is going to overcome Americans' "outrage fatique", it isn't going to be recanted testimony in the prosecution of a supposed co-conspirator for an incident that occurred over 10 years ago. It's not even an issue of partisan politics: Whether you're to the right or the left, you probably have more immediate things to be angry about than this.

I went back to coc from nvim's native lsp. I think the nvim lsp world needs another year to stabilize and mature. The default lsp configs are pretty rudimentary and make big assumptions like every project root is a git repo. You can't easily just have a project specific LSP configuration file like you can with coc. And installing each LSP is a real chore with various competing plugins instead of the easy built-in coc install commands.
Sweden has previously been happy to circumvent their own legal process and simply assist CIA operatives in kidnapping Swedish residents right off of the street in the middle of the night. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Repatriation_of_Ahmed_Agiza_an...

The UK doesn't even typically allow rendition flights to even refuel, and absolutely requires all extraditions to go through the strict legal process. I think it's mainly a pride thing about not rolling over and letting a former colony run amok extrajudicially in your homeland.

I can see why he didn't want to step on Swedish soil if he got a hint of US led shenanigans.
VS Code is an awful editor in general. I don't understand how it's so popular. Maybe it's just me but I don't like having 300ms lag between every action I perform on my editor. The vim emulation is a joke.
