I'd be cautious blaming users.

Microsoft literally sells an entire line of Server products ("Server Essentials") that are designed to be a combined AD/Printer/File Share/DNS/DHCP/etc server.

Selling a product to a small business them jumping all over that small business for using it that way seems pretty wrong to me. Larger businesses can and likely should do better (e.g. isolate printers on their own VLAN?).

Ultimately blaming end users is rarely constructive. Frankly the Windows Printer Spooler is using 1990s security thinking in 2021, and that's on Microsoft.
Because sex is(/was?) considered an identifying feature, in the same way eye color, skin color, height, weight, and other physical characteristics are identifying.

Now, should it be on there? Maybe? But if it must be, having an opt-out option is important, because people may not look male or female, rendering making identification less accurate. That's before we get into gender, where forcing someone to pick male or female when they may be neither is rather dehumanizing.
I understand why people say "Canada's population density is low that's why prices are high", but in practice only a very small fraction of the country is inhabited so it really just sound like a talking point and not a genuine issue.

Should enough people use it, it'll be yeeted into the dictionary and cease being a meme word. Language is like a living thing, it grows and changes.

Honestly, I'm on board with 'yeet'. It's versatile, playful, and is unambiguous as to what it means (transferring something quickly from one place to another).
Murdering infants is barbaric. It's impossible to corroborate now, but many reports at the time suggested they used impaled French infants for a battle standard. I don't have a word strong enough to condemn that depravity. "That's what you get from revolutions by slaves, bro." comes across as extremely flippant. Slavery is wrong. Murdering innocent people is also wrong, bro.
One of the tragedies of slavery - like other severe forms of oppression - is that it doesn't ennoble the oppressed. In fact, it makes the enslaved person accustomed to cruelty, violence, iniquity, tyranny; and is likely to result in individuals who tend to be possessive, anxiety-prone, vengeful, violent etc. A bit like the adage about abused children growing up to become abusive parents.

(Of course, this too is a crass generalization.)

This might be a bit of a strange take, but hear me out: this is good and should be the norm regardless of what you think or believe about trans people and/or gender being binary or not.

Gender as a social institution is a separate thing to me from gender as a facet of identity. By "social institution" I mean its involvement outside of interpersonal relationships, e.g. in situations like this where it's become the business of the state (and thus information that anybody even glancing at your ID card is privy to). That's patently absurd to me. How is it normal for a complete stranger to look at my ID and know (or at least think they know) what genitals I have? Or casually ask for that on forms? That certainly seems like information that I should have a measure of control over.

For a few years now I've been of the opinion that a person should have to opt in to disclose their gender/sex except where actually necessary (e.g. in medical contexts). "Prefer not to disclose" (e.g. X along with M/F) should be a valid answer to anyone else that asks including the government.
Just watched The New York Times' mini-documentary of the events and it really sad. The police should have reacted way faster and with more force.

However just to correct:

>breached the chambers chanting "Hang Mike Pence" and had built gallows outside.

The gallows (at least to me) seem like over statement. There was hastely constructed noose that was hung on a thing, but it is not like they build actual gallows outside the capitol building.
This is very much a recommended read for everyone.
Sort of, but I don't think I agree fully.

That is, if someone feels they'll be able to find a job outside of their current company, or that they have enough money to be out of work for a while, or that they're safe in the company even if they make waves, then they can optimize for their team's comfort above their own, and I'd contend that if you've ever had a manager you liked, they were doing that (even if it seemed like they weren't doing much).

So, sure, first it's Maslov's hierarchy of needs, but it's the one we're already familiar with; if someone feels their basic financial needs aren't contingent on people pleasing, then they can afford to not people please, and good employees, and good environments, encourage empowered individuals...but a bunch of empowered individuals may still have different priorities, which requires 'politics' to navigate.

If people -don't- feel their basic financial are guaranteed, then yeah, all bets are off.
It is patched now.
Yep totally. You can forget about training Tranformer-based NLP models from scratch at home, sadly... however you can choose a pre-trained model and fine-tune it with your annotated data.

Serving the models for inference is different, you can definitely perform inference on your local machine for most of the existing NLP models, even Transformer-based models. But GPT-J and GPT-Neo might be exceptions though as they require tons of RAM.

Also, even if you can perform inference at home, you might not have great perfs without NVIDIA GPUs dedicated to AI.
Speaking specifically of the US market (I don't know where you are), the list of available titles for transactional rental at any time is a tiny subset of all movies that exist on digital due to windowing (licensing) restrictions. By far, most movies are not available for rental.

I know that there is lots of theory on this, but has any company really ever gotten to this point?
I'm not saying there's anything wrong with this method of therapy but it reminds me of the time a relative went to a licensed therapist who did past life regression hypnotism. (And it's well documentation that there is something wrong with that!)

A licensed therapist who does psychedelics is someone outside the norms of society while at the same time carrying a license that carries the implicit promise of following society's rules. It just strikes me as "weird" to seek that out.

It certainly might be worthwhile to remove the hoops!

The original discussion was whether or not defi protocols enable new financial services. I argue they do not, but instead attempt to automate/decentralize those services.
Yes, that's just what the YouTube comments insisted.

I'm not really interested in the argument, but all you've said so far is "it's domain specific" or "it's not Turing complete", neither of which are actually requirements for programming languages as a whole. It's not particularly difficult to devise a sufficiently loose definition of "program" that HTML fits into, too. Or, rather, it's difficult to envision a definition that LaTeX fits into and HTML+CSS fits into and SQL fits into and LISP fits into and so on, but HTML does not without your argument simply restating "it's domain specific" or "it's not Turing complete".

However, it's also not a particularly interesting discussion, either, because the only purpose behind such categorization is to assign value judgements like "a 'real' programming language can be used for systems programming".

Many of them, thanks in part to dynamic linking. (I don't think excluding DLLs is too unfair, after all the browser constitutes an enormous Javascript runtime environment.)

VLC is one of the more complex programs out there, and yet the VLC binaries and the libvlc libraries they ship with total only 1.295 MiB on my computer.

The main application for Scid, a chess database program, is only 1.1 MiB. (The program also comes with a simple test chess engine and some opening books, so the overall package is somewhat larger.)

The binary and libraries for hexchat, an IRC application, total 1.22 MiB.

The program files for Pinta, an image editing program, come in right at 1.3 MB.

The vast majority of programs are under 10 MiB total. Moreover, I've tried to pick relatively full featured desktop apps, and desktop apps as a rule do more than any 1 MB web page. And these applications come in highly compressed archives, which means that their download size is often significantly less.

Furthermore, I would argue that web pages are rarely comparable to applications. When you're browsing Reddit, if the home page is 1.3 MiB on mobile, chances are the first individual post you click on is also going to be 1.3 MiB, and the one after that, and so on. You don't get the benefits of Reddit by downloading an "application" one time and getting tiny updates after that. If you're lucky most of the libraries being pulled in will get cached, but frequently it doesn't work out that way. On desktop Reddit, a warm refresh of the site still used more than 2.5 MiB for me, and that's with an ad blocker enabled.
Interesting, from the wiki:

Predatory pricing is a pricing strategy, using the method of undercutting on a larger scale, where a dominant firm in an industry will deliberately reduce its prices of a product or service to loss-making levels in the short-term.

The aim is that existing or potential competitors within the industry will be forced to leave the market.

I wasn't just citing one dude's speculation, I was attempting to refute some other dude's speculation, the following statement from the original parent post I was replying to:

I don't know thing the above statement has been proven yet, and there are competing theories.

I wasn't trying to prove that the virus came from somewhere else, I was simply casting doubt on the statement that the virus came from Wuhan.

Your question reads as disingenuous. In the case that you aren't: Sex can be determined biologically. Gender has a significant social component, and can't be determined through biology. For example: "Why is lipstick in the women's department at the store?" is not a question that can be answered through biology.

However, if you want examples of non-binary sex, that exists too: it's called intersex.
T-Mobile US' international roaming was almost useless when I was in Japan before the pandemic. Coverage was good on SoftBank, but even with five bars, my latest-and-greatest T-Mobile 4GLTE hotspot would only connect as 3G, and the speed was closer to dialup.

I would not really recommend Debt: The First 5000 Years by David Graeber as a good source.

While there are sometimes good historical nuggets, it mostly concerns itself with interpreting ever possible situation in the last 5000 years according to Graebers ideology and confirming that it is correct while constantly claiming anybody else that worked on these same topics and didn't share his interpretations are idiots (while often not actually seeming to know what they actually wrote).

This is just state policy if they don't like other states. Its just legal justification for states to do what they want to do. States have found a billion way to justify hostile action against other states. Claiming reparations of one kind or another is very common for a very long time.

Even had they been able to pay that money, its very questionable if that would have changed the disposition of the other stats towards it. Cartage managed to pay Rome back in full, and Rome then decide to destroy it anyway.

They might just have a different excuse for the same policy.

FAANG and Tesla knows
There has been some interesting psychological research into insecure attachment styles in children (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attachment_in_children has a good overview).

In short: It's good for children to be upset and afraid of new situations. That's how they learn that they can rely on their caregivers, who ideally support them in overcoming those situations.

Children that lack this mechanism (and e.g. are disinterested in new situations, or completely overwhelmed by them to the point where they cannot act at all) potentially lack that skill in adulthood as well.
There are numerous allegations from different countries claiming that another country is dumping some product on the market.

The one I can find most recently is: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2021-06-24/china-sue...

> China filed a lawsuit at the World Trade Organization over Australian anti-dumping and anti-subsidy measures on Chinese exports of railway wheels, wind towers and stainless steel sinks, the Ministry of Commerce said Thursday in Beijing. This would be the third recent WTO case between the two countries, after Australia sued over Chinese tariffs on wine and barley.

Prior to that (three weeks ago), it was China dumping steel alleged by Japan.
I don't think the data is clear though. The article specifically says:

1. "Some of our experimental data comes from studies involving university students, who tend to have limited work experience; future research will attempt to study these situations in a wider variety of organizations."

2. "In addition, some of our effects appear small."

Basically they discount themselves.

Also it's about perception of their EMPLOYERS. Nothing in the study suggests women are less capable or less hireable after two years. It literally says many times in different ways that a long maternity leave could possibly lead to some employers having a negative opinion of a female employee's commitment to their job.

But the problem here is with the employer; why should women be penalized because of this, thus being forced to have shorter maternity leaves?

Being based (at least partially) on university students, these people might not have the same range of commitment say a 30 or 40 year old with a house and established professional network might have. They may genuinely seem uncommitted to their jobs by the nature of their inexperience in the work force (trying out different things, different types of jobs) and place in life. So maybe that really biases the study.

Also it's just ONE study. So one study based on university students, with "small effects", doesn't really prove anything, even if it is published in the Harvard Business Review.

But if I may repeat myself:

If a woman is penalized for taking a long maternity leave because her employer has become prejudiced or biased against her, the problem lies with the employer or some systematic issue in the workforce, and the solution should be addressed there. If it's legal, it should be perfectly fine for her to take the full length of her leave.

Microsoft fixes critical PrintNightmare bug
It doesn't solve everything, but we use npm-audit-resolver[0] and it's.. workable. It presents you vulnerabilities, offers to fix (upgrade the nested dependency) if a version exists that meets all the constraints, and gives you an option to ignore for a week/month/forever if no fix exists. Those decisions (including fixes, which is a bit silly) get recorded in a JSON file in source control. For each group of ignores we add a link to the relevant Github issue where it's been reported, so if the ignore time we chose expires we can quickly go and see what the status is.

There are still problems:

- The decisions file gets unweildy, mainly because every time it fixes something it writes to the file. You probably only care about ignores. It's also append only, though you could manually clear it down sometimes.

- It always defaults to fixing at the deepest level, which is.. not ideal for NPM. On my machine (a not very old Macbook Pro) NPM simply can't update a dependency 20 layers deep in the tree, ie `npm update nested-dependency-from-hell --depth 20` will eventually time out and won't fix anything. So you have to manually crawl up tree yourself and find the thing that can be updated - or just ignore it until the thing right at the top of the tree gets updated.

I'm not surprised to see Dan posting this though. I agree with everything he said, so I don't mean this as an attack, but a lot of the time the thing at the top of the tree we're waiting for an update on is create-react-app. It must be incredibly annoying how many Github issues get opened on that repo every time there's a new NPM advisory on some 20-dependencies-deep parser it uses for something or other.

I do like the suggested fix that a maintainer can use their knowledge of the specific usage to say the vulnerability doesn't apply. Often in these threads there's a perfectly good explanation of why it isn't a real issue, and then people come back with "Okay but can you please update it anyway because I'm forced to audit and my security team/CI are yelling at me".
