Thank you. (So about 0.0526 m^3/s.)
Live in the moment, one thing at a time. You should be listening. The logic is simple, when it is your turn to speak people should also listen. Currently they are frantically adjusting their talking points in stead. What does it even matter what anyone says at that point?

Or even more hilarious: At the moment the only media attention these politicians get is about their excessive phone use. What they are going to say when it is their turn to talk I have no idea.

Oddly, my own children do not have that same issue. In a world of billions, there are no universal claims like this.
I think we have to fundamentally change how the party system works if we're going to get people in politics for the right reasons in general, but especially in local politics. There's no reason that the people collecting bins, filling potholes, and providing essential services along those lines need to be associated with the moral abattoirs that are the national political parties for example, at least in my experience these local politicians are voted on based on an area's national political inclinations rather than any individual merit which lets all sorts of lunatics in. The first thing we need to do is break this link and make local government completely non-partisan.

I wish there was an empirical way of screening out moral puritan types with the aim of directly eliminating their influence, but I'm not sure that can be done without endangering democracy itself. A more difficult but much more ethical approach I think is to try and create new social norms that make aggressive conformity something to be ashamed rather than proud of, puritanism in any direction should be made into a sign of weakness rather than strength. We need a society that instinctively defends "witches" when the witch-hunters are in town.
That is nearly impossible to avoid. Go to your local store enough times and they might remember you, even when no data is retained at all.

Nothing to do with risk, everything to do with supervision. A person sees a child in a car alone, they don't create a risk assessment with instant access to available stats in their brain. They see a child alone and immediately think 'where are their parents?'. When you see those horror stories in the news a person's first thought is 'where are their parents?'. Regardless of the overall risk, people will always ask 'where are the parents?'. You've obviously experienced the negative consequences of these actions and are attempting to prove in whatever way that leaving the kids unsupervised is the best option, but that is generally not acceptable in the wider community.

That's a great article - however my issue with Atwood's explanation is in the classic use of overlapping circles to describe joins.

After ~2 decades of using SQL in some capacity, the circles metaphor still makes no fucking sense to me.

Dataschool's article takes a somewhat non-orthodox approach with coloring rows / columns that would be included in the results of the joins - which I appreciate a lot more.
thanks, I hadn't heard of the traps before. Cheers
Another anecdote:

I'm driving near my home. I see some teenagers hanging out alone by a river. My immediate thought: "what are they up to..." as I'm used to shenanigans in SF. As I drive by I take a look and...they're fishing...fishing! "Well..." I say to myself, "...what a wholesome activity...good for them"

It’s described in that quote and in the article as if the Haitians defeated the French on their own. The Haitian revolution was essentially part of a fight between the French and the British, and internecine conflict between various French factions. 45,000 British soldiers died vs 75,000 french soldiers, so presumably the British involvement was also as significant as the French one.

Also, of the first leader of “liberated” Haiti, Dessalines:

“Dessalines marched into Port-au-Prince, where he was welcomed as a hero by the 100 whites who had chosen to stay behind. Dessalines thanked them all for their kindness and belief in racial equality, but then he said that the French had treated him as less than human when he was a slave, and so to avenge his mistreatment, he promptly had the 100 whites all hanged.”

Off to a great start…
Yes but I laughed and maybe a couple others. The OP comment was by a crypto throwaway account, the subtle message was there anyway, I just blew it up. Graeber is completely correct about Haiti getting screwed over by debt but I wanted the Bitcoin message underlying it to be exposed and have more substantial conversation about financial policies that could help. Did it work? Maybe.

Yeah, it feels like this should be illegal when done to expand into new markets by a profitable business.

Happy to chat about it but this does not seem like a welcoming space for the discussion.
So when one has their citizens slaughtered whole-sale, they are then under obligation to offer good trading terms?

If we are to reinterpret France's wrongs in light of modern norms, why not too interpret the wrong of the Haitian's? Why is this "rules for thee?"
Is that really true in pratice (excluding unikernels, of course)?

>In Canada, the Head of State is Queen Elizabeth II. But for all practical purposes, Justin Trudeau holds both rows.

Does Canada not have a Governor General, like other countries where Elizabeth II is the absentee monarch? The Governor General performs most of the functions of the head of state and technically has the power to appoint or dismiss the Prime Minister, but much like the Queen the role is mostly ceremonial.
I think they are just saying that context matters in security vulnerabilities, and npm audit doesn't have that context.

Well yes, correct, well done. By this metric, every security tool ever written is probably pointless.
In your view, protest never leads to change in America?

In your view, citizens of the US never visit or are visited by agents of some level of government?

In your view, the US government is not the collection of disparate power bases we see but actually a hidden monolithic “they,” with a discrete “intent” that is a composition of unspecified but doubtless nefarious interest groups?

In your view, China’s government is susceptible to radical yet peaceful change because of organized protest?

In your view, China’s government would never suppress organized protest? Or - perhaps - it suppresses protest because it would lead to change, and your view is that this is a more honest tyranny, echoing the Lincoln quote?

In your view, American local and federal governments have never reformed themselves, the variance of state laws, abolition, prohibition, the repeal of prohibition, civil rights and the expansion minority rights all being meaningless mirages? In your view this is because every hint of actual change is met with assassination or exile for some single protestor who matters more than every other?

If I’ve understood correctly, and with respect, I find these assertions absurd.

I agree. FWIW, I think it’s https://zitadel.ch/blog/imo-passkey-in-icloud-keychain/.
The original political system of the US, before it was significantly changed in early-to-mid 20th century, was pretty similar to the current political system of Europe, where the role of US Federal Government was similar to current role of European Union, and the individual US states were like individual European states. In this view, US setup shouldn’t surprise you, it’s what you yourself experience.
The point of a parliamentary session is for the general public. All the real meaty discussion takes place outside parliament.

This is mostly down to the low amount if time your average member of the public has for politics giving the news media enormous power over narrative (particularly out of context quoting), which requires the public stuff to be kayfabe.

> After the Haitians gained independence from French colonial rule in the Haitian Revolution of 1804, the French returned in 1825 and demanded that the newly independent country pay the French government and French slaveholders the modern equivalent of US$21 billion for the theft of the slaveowner's property and the land that they had turned into profitable sugar and coffee-producing plantations.

> Haiti’s legacy of debt began shortly after a widespread slave revolt against the French, with Haitians gaining their independence from France in 1804. President of the United States Thomas Jefferson – fearing that slaves gaining their independence would spread to the United States – stopped sending aid that began under his predecessor John Adams and pursued international isolation of Haiti during his tenure. France had also pursued a policy that prevented Haiti from participating in trade in the Atlantic. This isolation on the international stage made Haiti desperate for economic relief.

I've had to add this exact functionality ("Look left and repeat these numbers") as part of KYC for a mobile app similar to Revolut.

This is in conjunction with ID scanning.

I think this functionality was necessary as part of complying with KYC laws. And AFAIK WeChat has very similar functionality to Revolut (among much more) so even if the app was non-Chinese (e.g. European), it would need a similar flow.
My understanding is that they just have to prove beyond reasonable doubt that you did not take enough care because that’s an offence by itself. You have a civic duty to think if something may have been stolen. They don’t have to prove what you were intending to do.

One thing I've taken to - to spur thought, mostly - is likening the fire situation in California to the difficulties of securing the detritus of nuclear power generation. We have evidence to suggest that Californian Native Americans practiced a sort of semi-passive land management, including controlled burns, which helped to prevent large fires and kept natural areas sufficiently cleared for their uses. This practice would have steered the ecological evolution of those areas towards requiring such maintenance. Then those caretakers died (admittedly, this is putting that situation VERY shortly), took the knowledge of how to maintain their land properly with them, and European pioneers settled the same areas.

And now, California suffers from massive wildfires every year (worsened, of course, by climate change). Essentially, modern Californians are living in a sort of post-apocalypse, suffering from ancient technology run amok, which they do not understand and so which afflicts them with impunity.
> Wikipedia says the President is the "head of state" and the Prime minister is the "head of government"... but that doesn't really help me understand the role and powers of each in practice.

This is like Ireland. The head of government is responsible for running the country day to day. While the president is responsible for representing the country in a ceremonial way (far less powerful but often more popular). Often they rubber stamp some legislation but often have little power.
In the US the roles are combined in to the Presidency. In the UK the Queen is the head of state and Boris Johnson is head of government.
When I was on an SSRI to deal with anxiety this was the biggest change. I wouldn't say I was suddenly cocky or free of doubt, but I didn't dwell on my choices or worry about how others received me. I was quickly able waive away any self-doubt instead of ruminating on it for days or weeks:

Did I make the right call on this project? Will I get fired if I made the wrong decision? Oh well, a decision had to be made and I made the best one I could.

Someone is having a bad day that I care about? That is on them, not on me.

I suppose SSRI made me a bit of a sociopath, but at the same time it was freeing and allowed me to be happier, more productive,outgoing, friendly, and generally just more all around likable. People gravitated towards me more because I was indifferent and friendly, rather than friendly, but seeking approval.

My empathy towards others was slowly killing me. I cared too much about everything. Like most things, empathy is probably a spectrum. Too much and you are paralyzed with emotions and fear, too little and you are a sociopath who doesn't regard others. I guess in my case I still had empathy as I didn't start screwing people over for personal gain or anything, but I wasn't going to let myself get run over by someone else out of respect for their feelings either.

There is a reason most business leaders are described as being sociopaths; they probably are close to that end of the spectrum. If you are worried about everyone else's feelings all of the time it will probably hold you back in the business world, but you can take solace in that you are a good person who cares about others.
Also China would probably prefer American kids stay up all night playing games and fucking up in school etc

It's a newly introduced km fee on all road usage for EVs only, not for ICEVs, in Victoria.

https://www.caradvice.com.au/955801/victorias-ev-user-tax-is....

https://www.whichcar.com.au/car-news/victoria-passes-ev-tax-...

There's a $3k limited incentive that was used to distract from the fundamental issues behind taxing EV mileage. It doesn't cover long range cars as they're outside the price bracket.

The reasoning was that there's no fuel excise being collected, yet the fuel tax isn't being used to cover roads - normal tax payments are.

Also it doesn't care that ICEVs currently aren't paying for environmental emissions, when they should.

Actually having said all that I should just have pasted https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fLflYkgnNBY , which explains it all so much better. (Fair warning: Australian language).
Excellent rundown of many problems I've encountered in recent versions of npm and node.

I've never ever got `audit fix` or `audit fix --force` to solve any of the mentioned vulnerabilities. Ever. I even relied on downloading every dependency one by one to find that there where other offending packages. I just gave up.

It's really useless and deceptive.
This seems like a terrible explanation.

Firstly, joins are substantially orthogonal to keys. You can join two relations with no keys at all. Keys might help you make sure that there are going to be results to your join, but they are not required, and i wouldn't start with them.

Secondly, union is not a join. If mentioned at all, it should be in an addendum about other ways to combine tables.

Thirdly, left and right joins are specific kinds of outer join. Surely it's much clearer to describe "left, right, and full outer joins" than "left, right, and outer joins".

Fourthly, surely the most logical way to explain joins is the progressive refinement cross -> inner -> equi -> natural -> full outer -> left/right outer. A cross join is a Cartesian product, simple to explain. Restrict that with a predicate and you have an inner join (i'd use an example where the predicate is not equality). Introduce ON as a synonym for WHERE in inner joins. Make the predicate equality on a set of the columns and it's an equijoin. Introduce USING as a shorthand for ON in equijoins. Make that set all the corresponding columns and it's a natural join. Now include all the rows that didn't match and it's a full outer join. Note that WHERE wouldn't work here. Now just the rows on one side or the other and it's a left/right outer join.
Cool, though I wonder how long this convention will stick, granted that this is a policy by executive fiat -- It would suck for a lot of people if they suddenly had to redo their passports 4/8/12 years down the road.

Honestly, simplicity is the way of the future -- eventually we will not be able to deal with the huge stack of abstractions, and it will either topple like the apocryphal tower of bable, or we will invent a """god""" (strong AI) to deal with it for us.
Vulnerabilities are just code paths that can behave in unexpected ways and be abused.... I'm not sure the author's point, that development configuration could not hide malicious code? Why not?

All NPM does is scan to the dependency graph for vulnerability reports, it doesn't make any assessment of your consuming application's use-case. If you don't find this useful that is fine, don't use it.

I think it's totally worthwhile to figure out which tools rely on insecure dependencies.

Also looks like you can specify npm to ignore dev dependencies:

> Any packages in the tree that do not have a version field in their package.json file will be ignored. If any --omit options are specified (either via the --omit config, or one of the shorthands such as --production, --only=dev, and so on), then packages will be omitted from the submitted payload as appropriate.

Again, the belief at discussion here is not strictly religious or spiritual. I accept that totally normal people can live totally normal and fulfilling lives without any religious belief, and in many cases I think they, and the world, are better off for it. What I don't comprehend is a totally lack of belief in anything, even in the worldly or mundane or personal or scientific, because otherwise the human condition is just a big tangle of absurdity that we should all quietly exit from.

From later on in the speech transcript linked:

"Worship power, you will end up feeling weak and afraid, and you will need ever more power over others to numb you to your own fear. Worship your intellect, being seen as smart, you will end up feeling stupid, a fraud, always on the verge of being found out. But the insidious thing about these forms of worship is not that they’re evil or sinful, it’s that they’re unconscious. They are default settings. They’re the kind of worship you just gradually slip into, day after day, getting more and more selective about what you see and how you measure value without ever being fully aware that that’s what you’re doing."
