The issue you probably ran into is that Chinese academics don't always publish in English. Often what you get are press statements like [1] espousing a particular position. For Jia Lanpo the situation is a little easier. He was notorious for his position that Chinese humans originated in China. See [2] if you want a direct citation or [3] for context.

For Wu's work, [4]. I doubt it'll be clear to anyone unfamiliar with the literature how this differs from modern models so I'll attempt to explain it:

Way back in the 90s, we didn't have ancient DNA techniques and the idea of AMH-Neanderthal admixture in modern populations was still a bit fringe. The consensus model at the time was that Out-Of-Africa meant population replacement of archaic humans without admixture. A few months before this paper was sent for review, Green et al. [5] published the first Neanderthal draft sequence, which clearly pointed to admixture in Out-Of-Africa model. The consensus model went down in flames and everyone accepted admixture on some level. We're still fully working out the details though.

Liu's paper takes things a step further. Instead of just attacking the now-dead OoA replacement model, they point to Green et al. to say "AMH could have evolved from archaic humans in Asia and we have modern morphology that predates out-of-africa, even with admixture", thus remaining within assimilation theory without really remaining inside it. They also take a neat sideswipe at (modern) consensus with the phrase "imprecise inferences from extant genetic diversity".

Most of the people here will be aware of all the examples you link to, and are generally appalled by them. But the fact that the world is still not perfect does not somehow prevent us from looking at the past through the lens of today's moral standards.

Can you at least admit that we, as a species, have grown, because we no longer employ grand scale death pits?

Someone can be offended by both historical atrocities AND the Qatar situation. The first we cannot change, the second we can still have some influence on. I would argue this is something we do more because something like the colosseum exists to remind us, not less.

> Her arguments amount to "this was a coup attempt because I've redefined what a coup attempt means to fit this specific instance".

No, its a classic autocoup (self-coup) attempt. Executive leader directs loyalists against another government power center for the purpose of either extending term beyond what has been secured through the regular process or seizing additional unauthorized powers in the existing term. It wasn't even covert, they were literally overtly directed to go to Congress for that end.

Now, was it a poorly planned, uncoordinated, sloppily executed, and ultimately failure of an autocoup attempt? Sure, but that doesn't make it not a coup attempt.

> tools that have extreme low-level access to networks and systems

The emphasis being on the low level access. The solution is not having hundreds of people checking things by hand (though I'm sure that could contribute to security). The solution is more privilege separation; so that when the "remote monitoring tool" is compromised, not every part of your infrastructure is also compromised by default.

When you cook, you make food, that's the primary result. You also produce waste, dirty dishes and general disorder. This secondary result is tech debt.

You can cook a bunch of times ignoring these secondary results but over time cooking will be slower and of worse quality due to the mess and at some point it will be impossible (too dirty, no usable pots and pans, etc).
OBL was, in the end, operating out of Pakistan, a "democratic" "US ally".

Participants must be convinced to transmit event particulars. I find local businesses don't find it important to publish accurate business hours, much less information that changes more than once in two years. That includes the city government.

There's a site for my metropolitan area that tries to aggregate event listings. As far as I can tell, it only scrapes Facebook. That's enough for some people, even when the business page is hidden behind a FB login.

Ideally all we would need would be a feed reader. Planners and organizers don't see the value proposition in easy-flowing information.

Best JavaScript Libraries you should know in 2021
I use SQLite pretty frequently. I switched to Fossil (from git). I'm happy. The overall architecture of having your repo be a single binary stored in one location, and your working directories being just working directories and not repos themselves is a breath of fresh air. Branching seems a little different, but my projects aren't big enough scope to have encountered any hiccups.

I did it mostly for the built in project management (wiki, bug tracking), and to get away from the big SaaS environments. But the sqlite binary file repo sold me on the architecture quickly.

Dr. Hipp is a fantastic software engineer and product designer. Both SQLite and Fossil do what they need, have only the bells and whistles needed, and have clean, consistent designs. I've browsed the source for SQLite before, and it's also clean, legible, and quality.

Vue templates are far worse than JSX. JSX/TSX is understood by tools so you get static typing, code completion, go-to-definition and all the other benefits of modern tooling.

Static typing alone is enough to rule out Vue in my opinion. I even went as far as writing a static type checker for Vue to work around it. It works by compiling the Vue template to a dummy Typescript function that only typechecks if your Vue types are correct.

It found loads of bugs in our code.
It seems like the article is providing a theoretical definition of a clock that allows causal order to be determined. But at the top it says

Don't know how it is in the US, but over here in France (and I presume most of Europe) I'm not sure how much the petrol industry is subsidized, given the high taxes levied on gas – around 60% of the price paid at the pump goes to taxes [0].

Of course, this being France, taxes are themselves taxed [0], but still...

> The USA created a democratic government in the hopes that the troops could be withdrawn and the local Afghan government would maintain its own affairs

Democracy in the USA is based upon directly elected local government and a local property tax on landowners. We never tried to establish anything resembling american style democracy in Afghanistan.

Imagine if after each contentious national election the President appointed all of the state governors, all the county and city executives were also appointed by the governors or the President, that there was no direct property tax on corporate and individual land owners, and that the national government levied an internal sales tax.

The USA wouldn't survive more than a few years under Afghanistan style democracy.

The hard things are exactly the same as React because you can use whatever render function you want.

JS itself is a single-threaded event loop and all view engines basically follow the same functional pattern of data-> render function -> output. Vue comes with an HTML parser to create that render function, React and others use a JSX parser, or you can write your own from raw javascript.

You can technically use any of them with any render function parser, but Vue starting with HTML by default and all the other niceties around reactivity make it a better fit.

Summary:

The Mars Helicopter (Ingenuity) is going to attempt to fly .39 miles at 11mph for just shy of 3 minutes over an area that could otherwise never be covered by a wheeled rover. It'll be taking pictures along the way and navigating over uneven terrain despite not being programmed for it and will be communicating with the rover at distances past its design goals.

That's just a tooling issue. HTML has been around for a long time, and plenty of tools provide typing. Also Vue supports typescript. Vue itself throws errors if the variables don't exist in your template.

However you can use JSX with Vue if you want. All JS libraries are fundamentally the same, and all templating boils to a single function with input->output. Vue just offers HTML instead of JSX by default and it's far more useful in many instances.
Compatibility was a goal at the start, but now it seems to be on a "best effort" basis at best. It's very much non-perfect because opening anything in neovim with my Vim config gives me a forest of errors and loads of things don't work, including some pretty basic stuff like expression mappings.

Trees add value to a house so I'd say on balance people prefer them. Though this calculation may unfairly presume all things are equal (i.e., damage caused by a tree is not included) and less desirable trees that hurt value got removed by the seller.

But for the purposes of this topic where we're talking about planting trees, issues with planting the wrong kind of tree or in the wrong spot on the property don't apply.

> "developing solely to meet "SEO friendly""

Never said I was. In fact that's just another nice benefit of traditional server-side frameworks rather than something you have to worry about implementing all over again.

Blazor specifically is the first non-JS component-based UI framework for the web with multiple modes that bridges backend and frontend as a single service without any impedance mismatch. It's an entirely new way to approach web UIs and interactivity without all the plumbing and frontend-to-backend-for-the-frontend-to-the-backend nonsense. Livewire is not quite as polished but shows how far you can go with tight integration on the JS side.
It's true that "all patches go through Bram", but Vim has other maintainers as well and there's loads of people working on it. I had several patches merged with feedback from several non-Bram maintainers, with faster than average turnaround times I might add (i.e. several days or less before it ended up merged in Vim).

Ask around for quotes on delivering a fridge comparable to the one bb was supposed to deliver, within the same timeframe. Keep documentation, which can include just your notes on who you called and when. Presumably you won't get many quotes, that's fine. Do it until you get one, and execute it.

Later, but not too much later, sue BB in small claims for the difference between the price they charged and what you ended up paying. It doesn't hurt to ask for some compensation for your time, though you're less likely to get that. The point is, you are most likely entitled to be made whole for any increased expense you incurred to get a fridge on your required timeframe, as a result of BB's breach of contract (yes, you had a contract with them - you have a contract every single time you purchase something, whether it's written or no).

> How many people died in the Colosseum? It is impossible to know with certainty, but it is believed that as many as 400,000, between gladiators, slaves, convicts, prisoners, and myriad other entertainers, perished in the Colosseum over the 350 or so years during which it was used for human bloodsports and spectacles.

it's a myth perpetrated by Hollywood movies that gladiators were slaves sent to die in the Colosseum, in reality they were trained athletes, much like football players in the US today

Of course 2,000 years ago society was very different, perhaps it was more violent, but Iraqi war killed at least 500,000 people in a few years.

More people died there over the next 15 centuries, when the Colosseum wasn't a battle arena anymore and the knowledge of what it was built for was lost, than during the Roman empires that used it also as a fighting pit.
