Do keep in mind that /dev/stdin{out,err} aren't completely portable. Bash emulates them if they don't exist, but this usage bypasses Bash. So there are unix like platforms where this trick won't work. They do, though, seem to be supported on the ones that are most popular now (Linux, MacOS, FreeBSD).
The simpler answer is to just ban it. The law doesn't need to be technically detailed or envision every single technological adaptation: it just needs to be sufficient for a judge to be able to recognise it when a prosecutor describes it and a defence lawyer attempts to pull the wool over their eyes. It needs to be focused on outcomes.

Once banned, Google and Facebook will submit. They will attempt to lobby against the reforms, eventually saying "it will prevent legitimate business: it represents a small fraction of our revenue, but we are selflessly lobbying on their behalf to ask you to implement this technically specific law to reign us in". Ignore them. You don't listen to the hitman when they comment on homicide laws.

And ensure that the penalties amount to a ban. The US congress and courts can and do terminate human lives. Whatever penalty they propose on abstract legal entities is not too harsh; even if they completely dismantled Google and destroyed all of their economic value, it is nothing compared to the things we do to natural living breathing humans in response to criminal behavior.

Profitable companies will submit to a law that aims to control their behavior.
The fallacy is the god-of-the-gaps "logic" of assuming there's some hand-wavey phenomenon that's qualitatively different from anything we currently understand, just because reality has so much complexity that we are far from reproducing it. You're assuming there's a soul and looking for it, even though you don't call it that.

Intelligence is mysterious in the same way chemical biology is mysterious (though perhaps to another degree of complexity)... It's not mysterious in the way people getting sick was mysterious before germ theory. There's no reason to think there's some crucial missing phenomenon without which we can't even reason about intelligence.
Thank you for this. Hope this becomes standard practice.

Why wouldn't it? Until YT has a perfect algo to detect violating videos, this will obviously happen.

I keep seeing pieces like this and I feel like I'm taking crazy pills. I'm no expert at tech or social media. But this is a really obvious fact isn't it? So obvious that doing a "study" to "discover" it seems actively dishonest.

Yes, but it requires some graphics techniques that browsers mostly don’t implement, or implement in all environments, yet. I can’t remember the full range of techniques to do it properly, but it starts at least conceptually with supersampling: not rendering at 16×16, since that causes real problems with aliasing when you have overlapping objects, but rather rendering at a higher resolution (where the aliasing effects are reduced or eliminated) and scaling down. For perfect results on 8-bit colour, I think you’d need to do 16×16 supersampling (rendering 16× as large in each direction, so 256×256 and scale down to 16×16) so that each pixel is the combination of 256 pixels, but except for very fine detail, 4×4 supersampling (render at 64×64 and scale down to 16×16) should generally be good enough.

I think there are fancier ways of doing this, and of getting GPU support, but I can’t think of the terms now. Hopefully someone else will chip in.

But if you’re aware of the ways in which most renderers do an inferior job, you can work around them and craft your SVG so that it won’t be affected: things like making sure that objects align with pixel boundaries and that each pixel never has more than one object partially covering it.
Right, but first the "recipient" neuron needs to fire, which requires integrated synaptic inputs to cross some threshold, which requires input spikes to arrive close to the same time.

This phase precession mechanism being discussed is what allows inputs arriving from different distances (i.e. with different signal travel times) to arrive close to the same time such that the recipient fires. Once it fires, then "fire together, wire together" can strengthen/weaken the synapses as appropriate.
As a Mastodon admin, I wholeheartedly agree. I can decide not to connect to a given server, but I can't stop that server from existing. I think this is an excellent design.

It's not so much about them not knowing bash, as it takes MANY lines to do things correctly sometimes. Per the example in my blog post full of mkfifo and stuff.

The more I work with parsing, parser combinators and writing grammars for little languages, the less often I find myself using or wanting to use any regex at all. When I do, I always feel like there should be a better way, perhaps a type safe way of accessing the info I need and so on. It feels "Ugh, there should be a better way to do this." Especially in JavaScript, regexes blow in comparison to languages with named matching groups and all that. In JS regex really feels horrible, even more cryptic than in other languages.

I think regexes are often used as a quick and dirty solution to problems, which should be solved differently. But once the regex "works" and is in place, others begin to rely on that output. Over time cruft begins to accumulate and the regex is forgotten or at least never replaced with anything more appropriate.
There is zero chance of the police doing anything. The harassers are almost certainly not in their jurisdiction.

It's the FBI's jurisdiction, and they're not going to do anything, either. To them, it's just another of the billions of death threats sent every day. Don't call them about it until you're already dead.

It would be great if somebody, occasionally, decided to follow up on one of these felonies. Maybe people would think twice about it. But as it is, going to police is exactly as effective as complaining about it on the Internet: not at all.

Nitpick, but SSO is for imaging satellites that are picky about repeatable lighting conditions (solar angle); but not so much about long revisit times. Weather satellites want continuous observation and (for now) generally go in GEO.
Every data visualization is necessarily a contrivance because it is creating visual features for things that weren't already visual. Data visualization research has not been able to formalize a rigorous notion of visual "information" in a form that usefully predicts performance across the enormous variety of visualization tasks and settings for which colormaps might be applied. "Distortion" is also a common but somewhat meaningless term. You're referring to perceptual effects (related to color appearance) that are side-effects of using "jet", but again, for some tasks they may be an acceptable side-effect, given the benefits of increased discriminability.

Our different levels of certainty and conviction may arise from my being a data vis academic, rather than a tool user or tool builder.

Yea grad level absolutely (pretty much anything can fly at the grad level). Undergrad? Maybe we should teach it b/c of the historical importance it has to the field and how the community developed but I really do think most ML classes would be better off without it b/c of the extra background you'd have to use precious time on. Kernel PCA, kernel regression are better for demonstrating the power of kernels.

I suppose the idea of a maximum separating hyperplane is kind of unique to SVMs and if you just teach SVMs through the primal and leave it at that, you don't need to spend all that much time motivating the dual.
If you're in the right inclination and more or less the right altitude, matching argument of ascending node with a target is cheap, just slow; this class of customer orbits is selected precisely because the Earth's oblateness noticeably affects the orbit, so you can get certain kinds of orbit changes and station keeping "for free" from the shape of the Earth's gravitational field.
Just curious, have you tried vite with react? It uses esbuild, which might result in a heavier dependency folder, but I also wonder if getting rid of webpack removes a lot of the CRA dependencies.
> The speaker definitely has a Southern American accent.

Are you referring to the southern United States or the South America continent? I live in the southern Mississippi and it doesn't really sound much like how people typically talk here, so I suspect you might be referring to the continent. But also, the accents can vary widely across the southern United States so I'm not really sure.
The downvotes probably came from your 'all or nothing'. There are, and have been, multiple abstractions at various levels, for years. Implying that if someone doesn't like these particular abstractions, they advocate "build it yourself" is wrong, and that's how it came off.

This article just further hammers in the comparison between carbon offsets and buying indulgences to me. Even at the higher payment-per-acre point, all current forms of carbon offsets seem both too intractable and ineffectual to make much of a difference.

I agree with the opposing view in the article that we should consider researching the possibility and ways to make it more effective... but currently, that seems like it should be done as an academic project, not by throwing hundreds of millions of dollars to miscellaneous carbon startups and hoping something changes.

Side question: why are many of the article's examples of "carbon friendly" farmers getting major carbon-credit payments part-time cattle ranchers? It seems like helping expand cattle ranching is not a fantastic side-effect of carbon credits, and could cancel out much of the marginal benefit of cover crop planting, etc.
Certain heavily-populated classes of orbits (like SSO, which this one is using) are very cheap in propellant terms to transfer between. Only as long as you don't care about speed of the transfer, but refueling needs are predictable very far in advance

Solar hot water panels would make 4x the heat for the same area, but are too complex and expensive to install. They need pumps, expansion chamber, control system, antifreeze, new larger hot water tank. They are too heavy to get on the roof by yourself.

My non-grid connected solar cost about $1200, and was easy to DIY. No $1000 permit needed since it is not connected to the grid. No moving parts and almost no electronics. House now uses only 8-12 kWh a day.

> We generally think of email as a "common carrier," but even there, spam is blocked. Blocking spam is censorship. Failure to automatically detect 1% of spam will still overwhelm non-spam content.

These aren't quite the same. The paper recommends common carrier protections only for publishing that people explicitly seek out or to whom they subscribe. If you're subscribed to spam, the solution is obvious and technically trivial (unsubscribe).

The spam problem for email is not trivial because email is, by design, a public addressing system which permits unsolicited messaging.

Indeed. This is a good resource to counter the nonsense that is spread about payment for order flow and market makers.
The problem with a social democratic initiative like this is that the fellow members of the working class who live in the global south, who produce 99% of the products the Icelandic bourgeoisie (together with the rest of the Global North bourgeoisie) outsources to there, do not get this same treatment. [1] 'Solutions' like this are a distraction for the labor movement/socialists and labor organizers everywhere.

It also reminds me of how there is this unfortunately common yet gross accounting trick that tries to only count and shine a light on the level of pollution by the producers (usually by country), without accounting for who they are producing for (which company + country).

So yes China is polluting, but most of it is in response to requests from global north capitalists.

Both of the above are not solutions, they are half(baked) solutions as well as being misinterpretations of the full context and system.

In a decentralized system, users could have various "vouches" for the authenticity of their messages.

A trusted user could vouch for a new user, and/or the user could go through various types of third party verification, such as phone number, ID verification, or other verification, and then the third party could vouch for them on that basis.

You could even have monetary vouches, where a third party vouched that the user paid a certain amount of money, solved a captcha, or solved some computational problem.

The user could be in control of what measures would be required to reach their screen. As it stands, social media essentially incorporates a combination of trusted user vouching (you can see who is a friend of a friend), and monetary vouching (advertising).

Maybe trees are the real elves - naturally long lives, incredible technology/magic that we barely understand, if we see it at all (e.g. mycorrhizal networks between trees [1]), adaptation and harmony with their environment, etc. The Overstory by Richard Powers is a wonderful exploration of this idea in fiction.

>The modern market is no longer a meeting place but a mechanism characterized by abstract and impersonal demand. One produces for this market, not for a known circle of customers; its verdict is based on laws of supply and demand; and it determines whether the commodity can be sold and at what price. No matter what the use value of a pair of shoes may be, for instance, if the supply is greater than the demand, some shoes will be sentenced to economic death; they might as well not have been produced at all.

It's no wonder so many people are depressed and anxious. We've replaced communities with commodities, treating people as if they're interchangeable nuts and bolts.

While it‘s awesome to finally see the JWST finally come to close to launch after all those years, now it‘s a close race between it and SpaceX Starship that could have taken the 6.5 meter mirror up to space in one whole piece in its 9m diameter belly rather than having to do all the miraculous origami that took two decades to develop in the first place…
That wasn't my claim. My claim was that the thing the VCs are backing is not simply a better profit model. "You can do X for 10% less than the incumbent? Nothing else to distinguish you? And all we have to do is risk half a billion dollars over the next 5 years to compete on an even footing with what they've already spent?" - who is signing up for that?

Sorry for the pedantry, but a mixture of Dirac distributions is almost always not a Dirac comb. Notice that a mixture of Dirac distributions is a Dirac comb only if you have an infinite number of equally-separated samples (and empirical distributions tend to have a finite number of samples).

Yes, that was the conclusion I came to as well. Websites are no longer documents. They're software. Too bad.
Humans can spread ideas massively better than other species. Our phenotype is distinct among extant species. Just like plants are distinct from animals. I say that as a matter of fact rather that trying to suggest any particular moral implications of that. Our distinctness does not automatically mean we are special. And our lack of genetic specialness does mean that humans are worthless.

I absolutely agree that understanding life is amazing and even essential to our future. That in itself is an idea that couldn't possibly have existed without the distinctive ability to communicate I mentioned above.

> Is there a way to show all the tags that's available or you've used?

No.

But I could implement that in a few minutes. I could search for "tags:" headers, add the trailing text items to a list, then call function delete-dups.

Or I could use a pre-defined list of tags and have a function that lets me select from that. But this starts moving away from the "just a text file" thing, and I'd have to start creating my own custom mode. That's nice but then I'm also forcing rules, structure, and even custom user interface that's beyond "just a text file".

Minimal structure and rules is a feature too, it's easier to add new bookmarks.

> How do you handle stale links

I haven't had a stale link yet. If I ever notice one, I'll delete or correct. Or maybe add a flag STALE: in front of the URL if i want to keep it for historical purposes.

> see everything related to say tag1, tag2, keyword1, and keyword2, is there some way to like "grab" all those links and view them in a separate buffer?

Sort of. I use grep-like line based searching. It searching lines only, not "records". So it treats each line as it's own thing. But it gets the job done.
I use the swiper package. With it's out-of-order matching mode. So my search query might be:

food meat

It would find lines that contained both search items in any order.
I only bother with "and" style search not "or".

It is flawed. If food and meat are on separate lines, it would not find the match. A more advanced search feature that understands the file format could solve that. Or a better suited database file structure. But not worth it for me. 99% of the time I'm searching 1 keyword only.

Hi Daniel! Thanks for the great summary on your website.

That said I'd love a few more examples - like _how_ to

* import a navbar from one html snippet into another (thereby making some static site use cases obsolete).

* how to import from CDNs (it took me a while too realize what you were talking about for the case below).

Love your position - but I'd argue your position would be a lot stronger with examples!

Thanks,

You are always within 0 feet of a worm. Worms are everywhere (microscopic nematodes included).

A parasitologist told me "If you removed everything in the world except worms, you'd still be able to see what everything was". Which I take to mean, you'd see a ghostly outline of every rock, tree, building, bird and person made from worms.
