That's not how lawyers think.

Microsoft's programmers were (are?) not allowed to read GPL code to rule out any doubt that they might be copy GPL code into the codebase, even if only unconsciously.

Lawyers are not just for suing they are also for covering your ass so there is no way you could lose if you are getting sued.
>> The left wants to own online political discussion in the US, and they are very bothered that the right finds a ready audience when they are allowed to compete.

> That's a very odd definition of "left" floating around down there in the US. What is being called "left" in that context is nothing but neo-liberal centrist politics, and it has wanted to own political discussion in the US in some form or another for over a century.

I don't think that's the "left" the GP was referring to. I think were most likely talking about the "culture war" left.

> I remain flabbergasted by the increasing number of people who can somehow in the same breath complain about "radical socialists" and "cultural marxists" while at the same time somehow equating those people with "corporate elites" and "silicon valley" -- the two are the enemy of the other.

It's because we don't always get to control definitions, even ones we care a lot about (ask me about "crypto" sometime). IMHO, those are both fashionable (in some circles) new terms for the "culture war" left, somewhat inflected by plutocratic interests that harness opposition to it to further their own agenda.

Edit: IMHO, I think a flag-waving socially-conservative socialism could be surprisingly successful in America, if someone could get it off the ground.

Cool stuff! I started building something similar back in 2018 or so, we ran a crypto quant fund.

We actually found some very good arbitrage opportunities using derivatives, that didn't even need automation, so we used that. But I figured it would be cool with a tool for people to make their own strategies.
The Continuum Hypothesis and its negation are both proven to be consistent with ZFC (this is what the article is talking about RE forcing and Godel's proof of the consistency of CH). There is no contradiction to assume one or the other alongside ZFC. The article is really talking about Platonic truth when it talks about something being true or false.

> Individually, or independently, axioms have no truth value.

Indeed, you are not a Platonist :).
I’m sure speculators and drug buyers would go on using Bitcoin, but businesses can only be persuaded to do these ransom payments because they can buy Bitcoin legally with a normal wire transfer.
I would not be a perfectly reasonable public health policy to do what you suggest, it would be a waste of time and money. Everybody knows that being fat is unhealthy. The people who are fat and not doing anything about it just don't care, or have other priorities.
yup, because your answer was a simply: "its a fallacy" without giving any argument, so I did the same. You updated it with a better reasoning and so did I.
I strongly recommend people avoid health products (supplements, vitamins, etc.) and electronics from third parties on Amazon for this very reason. It's worth paying extra to get these kinds of goods from a retailer that works directly with the manufacturer or authorized distributor so you know you're actually getting the real thing.
Congress writes the laws. They would have to write laws to make their own conduct illegal. This doesn’t seem very likely.

So, what is SteamOS?

SteamOS is a public release of our Linux-based operating system. The base system draws from Debian 8, code named Debian Jessie. Our work builds on top of the solid Debian core and optimizes it for a living room experience. Most of all, it is an open Linux platform that leaves you in full control. You can take charge of your system and install new software or content as you want.

I didnt say you were a "white" european, I said: "IF you are....", there is nothing racist on what I said. You are using a common pattern the far right uses here in the US, ala Carlson Tucker "What is white supremacy anyway?". I agree there is racism everywhere , between all races, religions, etc... But , we were talking about the US, and the differences between regions regarding racism, etc. I was also exposing my personal experience. Also , the argument of "there is no such a thing as racism" is itself racist, regardless where you are from and how you look. Disregarding other peoples unnecessary hardship and the problems they have to deal with, just because they look different or come from a different place, is truly immoral.

Democratic socialism isn't anywhere near the same as the Cuba/Venezuela/USSR type of socialism. Are any politicians of the latter stripe currently in Congress?

Like I get that there's a popular meme that taxes and government services are "socialism". But that's a wildly inaccurate boogeyman conjured up by people who really, really don't want to pay taxes. (No one wants to pay taxes, but most of us accept they're the cost of having a society)

If taxes that fund government services are "socialist" then having a police force is "socialist" too. Do you agree with that? It sounds ridiculous to me but that's where that logic leads.
Yeah this makes all the investment in Proton make a ton more sense. I've been really enjoying the side effect of pretty much any game I try running on my Linux desktop with little to no extra effort as well.

For me personally, I value the openness and out-of-the-box hackability of this device very much and it will likely be the first handheld gaming device I'll buy since the Nintendo DS. I'm interested to see if that sentiment is shared more widely as well.
While I understand the reasoning, at the same time words born out of questionable roots permeate probably any language. Are we to remove all use of words regardless of the useful connotations that their use provides a language because of a dirty past? Words in general are cultural icons and carry with them a lot of history ugly and pleasing alike, but ultimately descriptive. I know that the desire to remove such "ugly" words is becoming the norm (GitHub moving the default branch from master -> main comes to mind) but may I posit the opinion that words, as dirty as their past may be, are only meant to convey an idea (which their corresponding history may have created) and not necessarily support the idea or its originating past in our human (or otherwise) experience. If they convey the intention effectively, however ugly when present in the human experience, why is their use totally off limits? Should we also stop using terms like the Maginot line when describing ineffective preparation? I'm sure the people who were affected by it would assign strong feelings to its failure to protect and result in loss of life. Or how about Icarian -- this word stems from the story of fatal ambitions. Or how about "hysteria" and it's stereo-typification of women. In short the history or etymology of a word over time is less and less connected to the past (unless it's a problem still alive and kicking in our present). I guess, maybe instead of only criticizing the use of words a substitute could be devised/suggested?

It seems like the core of the document (and its title) revolves around a long and drawn out endeavor that is ultimately going to fail to reach it's intended goals - ORM's to a T. Using Vietnam as a descriptive term may not be friendly to international or even younger readers, hence, the extended explanation, but it is effective. May be there was a portion of the article you felt was inappropriate. Sorry, if I'm lost on some obvious detail.
This is only counting batteries. California has an additional 4 GW of pumped storage capacity.
> There are probably plenty of ways to tell "fake controller input from a bot" from "actual human controller input" today.

Only in the "do these movement patterns appear human-like or not" sense. These aim bots can use assistive devices to input mouse movements and there's no way to tell whether or not there's a human hand moving the mouse.
Doesn't matter much if it is traceable, as long as it can be converted into actual money. And it can, thanks to dodgy exchanges turning a blind eye or being actively complicit.
There might be for now. You just have to train a second model that actually moves the cursor towards the target on normal player behaviour, eventually it becomes essentially perfect, and what then?

As far as performance improvements, oh it's going to make the cheat programmers even more money as they implement a skill ramp up period and get to charge more.

The only way in which I'm "gleeful" is that it might finally put an end to the spyware when we realize that controlling someone else's computer is a losing proposition. Otherwise yeah it does suck.

For those that are unaware, industrial protein design is a multibillion dollar industry. For example, decades ago Genentech and Dow Corning formed a company that developed proteases (proteins that cut other proteins) that worked at much higher temperatures than the ones in nature. This was then sold to P&G and other major laundry companies (laundry detergent contains idle enzymes activated by the heat of the laundry water, and they go clean up. "Protein gets out protein" was the marketing jingle.

That was a few billion dollars right there and almost all the work was done by hand by lab scientists.
How open is this platform to custom peripherals (wifi/bluetooth) ones? I've always wanted a nice controller for robotics projects with a touchscreen. Right now it seems like most hobby projects use a laptop and ps4/xbox controller.
I think there's the argument that most studios will do whatever's easiest. Only a few will really try to be fancy and use the new hardware to the utmost, right?

So then yeah, sticking with a load screen _might_ be easiest. But if the tooling supports it, it might be even easier to just not worry about loading and having to make a loading screen, and let the engine handle that stuff for you. UE5 at least seems to be going in that direction.
Did you mean GWh?
It is a really, really bad idea to put business logic in your database and there are people in this thread downvoting everyone who points it out. Please do not do this in production - I've had to maintain systems that married business logic and database and it was a nightmare to maintain and cost a fortune to fix.
Ok but then you cannot log into an online gamr using Windows without having an anticheat installed saying that your machine is good to go? Is it something like this?
It's an idiom implying that there's a lot of chatter and bold claims, but very little of it is factual or informative.
> You're right that the studies have low sample sizes, but they aren't "low-quality." They're randomized, controlled trials in peer-reviewed journals.

RCT is just a method, it doesn't automatically make the data high-quality. Peer review can't make the data any better either. With all these studies, the confidence intervals are huge or the group sizes are poorly balanced or the sample size is tiny or the effect is not that big. I'm looking at these studies:

https://ivmmeta.com/#fig_fpall

> If you have 32 RCTs showing negative or even neutral effects, I'd love to see them.

I don't, but I also didn't look. You also have to consider publication bias. Studies where the null hypothesis holds are far less likely to be published:

> Dr. Pierre Kory claimed that we did observe this in Mexico

He's talking about a "precipitous drop". I don't see it in the data. Compare the "daily deaths" for Mexico (yay Ivermectin) to the US (nay Ivermection). They're virtually the same.

> I think we should let doctors make the decision to prescribe it or not, and the culture of censorship around this is insane.

I'm torn on this one. It's easy for doctors to fool themselves, which is why we need solid data. At the same time, if you don't have solid data, clinical experience is better than nothing.

I do recognize many problems in regards to information distribution and tribalist science, but that doesn't make me any less skeptical of Ivermectin.
Yes I think it's usually playing while pretty much laying down on my couch.
On the contrary. If you do a PhD, you can get paid by the university and build some net worth. And people are impressed when you say you have a PhD, but do not care when you tell them about a graveyard project
The post has some interest points but feels like some things are stretched a bit.

Luxury Transportation: Some people pay for a taxi to be transported from A to B, while others are forced into a car and are transported to jail. Why people would spend money on transportation?

The end goal of using a smart watch is to track your exercise and health. The end goal of an electronic monitoring device like those on parole or probation is to keep track of the location of the person under surveillance.

The technology might be similar but the end goals are completely different. Just as you can use a knife to have lunch or to kill. Or a jab for a vaccine or lethal injection. Same technology but very different end goals.

Also, I don’t agree with using the term surveillance. If you’re using a smart watch to track your progress it’s not surveillance. Writing your thoughts in a diary it’s not surveillance. Looking yourself in the mirror it’s not surveillance.

On the technology side, Apple claims that Health Information is encrypted end-to-end [1]. Regarding sending your device location, my understanding is that it’s only sent to Apple “only if you actively request the location of a device or accessory.”[2]

Anyway, I have to say it sucks to know it’s feasible to turn those devices into surveillance devices. The Snowden revelations showed that governments did mass surveillance over many mediums, so they could do it even at a lower level if they wanted. Sometimes companies would collaborate with them and sometimes it was without the company’s knowledge.

It’s an inherent problem of being able to change the functionality of a computer and having to trust to many parties.

Finally, they could also do it with phones. Far more people have phones than smart watches. They could turn the mics on your phone to listen to you. Or the camera. Your phone has all your contacts and chat logs. Moreover, telcos keep logs of which antennas your device uses.

Well then, if that's the case, Brazil should stroll in on a white horse into some climate summit, raise this question, and see if a solution can be found to preserve Amazon as a carbon sink in a way that is beneficial to Brazilians also economically. And I mean Brazilians in general, not only a narrow cabal of cattle ranchers.

Sawing off your legs to spite the doctor doesn't seem to be a very good long-term strategy.
Also, there is enough variance amongst human that eventually the generator network can actually slip under the noise floor and become 100% undetectable.
Incidents of voter fraud, and side effects from vaccines, etc are quantifiable, therefore not subject to opinion. Interpretation yes, but interpretation must be supported by evidence.
It has a bit of feeling it might be an issue if you switch with from another car, but you getting used to it almost right away. No issues at all for 1 year of driving for me and my gf.

I'm thinking of a second electric car and Id4 freaks me out with quality of software, youtube is full of frozen screen. I don't play games on a computer, or phone, but I quite often wait for someone in the car. or while in road trip and charging.

Tesla approach in car experience in a very fundamental way. In may opinion CarPlay is just a temporary solution where manufacture failed to provide something decent. Tesla gives you good screen a very decent list of software, amazing sound quality etc...

It gives you real ability, disconnect from the phone while you driving, and car play is a way dangerous thing that a slightly limited view in rear windshield.

After I switched to tesla my car doesn't have a phone cable, holders, it's just used as a key, and lay in a wireless charger. I guess this is a right approach to drive a car.
You are right of course.

Like so many seemingly intractable moderation problems maybe this is why we shouldn't scale to infinity. YouTube is literally too big to moderate. Maybe this is a feature of humanity. What's wrong with more, smaller communities that have a dang to keep everyone in line? Other than the unfortunate lack of dangs in the world.

Back in my day CS servers were mostly privately run. If you were caught cheating you got banned. If you appeared to be cheating (you were too good) you also got banned. From the perspective of the players on the server those are the same thing. Communities formed on servers with similar skill levels and recognized players. Cheating in that kind of environment becomes extremely risky from a social perspective. You could piss off your actual friends.

There wasn't a need for rank-based matchmaking or anti-cheat or anything like that, you just eventually found a place you fit in and could have fun. Valve tried to replace that with algorithms but maybe they should "crowd source" so to speak, like we did 20 years ago.

This is all a lot of words to say that there is a "right size" for a community to form and enable everyone to have a good time. When you get to the point that "technology can't help us" I think that's an indicator that your community is too big.
We'll lower your data warehouse costs for free
While building our last tool, we’ve been using tools that run queries on our data warehouse and have increased our compute costs at a surprising rate (particularly painful on Snowflake and Big Query).

We’re investigating if we should create a tool that breaks down your data warehousing compute costs and suggests ways to reduce the amount a company spends on their data warehouse.

If this is something that resonates with you, we would love you to see how much we could reduce your data warehouse costs for free. If you're interested, you can fill out this form: https://tally.so/r/w5xMN3
I wouldn't mind if more services were paid only.
I think I agree with you (and actually prefer not to use the term "left" myself in general for this reason), but I still think it's worth underscoring the points about the incoherence of the use of these terms. Someone on a hobby group I am on the other day started ranting about how rising fire insurance rates for farmers were "Just another step to push out the middle class and independent owners to make way for big corporate ownership." [ok fine, whatever] and then suffixed it with "The United Socialist States of America" [W the actual F? Makes zero sense].

I see this kind of talk from people with Q & Trump-inflected politics all the time. It's bizarre.
CDNs maybe? Back when people used jQuery, an enormous amount of traffic went to Google, ripe for tracking, and you got the small benefit of not having to download the same version of jQuery so often.
Yes, there we go: This reaction, when calling it obvious and blatant lies. Every time. Believing in lies is now normal and expected of right-wingers, and calling it out is called attacking political opinions.

It's not. It's lies.
I do remember a game that did something like that many years ago (posted on reddit I think?). It was an endless runner type game with a fox character IIRC, and you had to alternate taps on the back of the device to get it to move. I do remember that I couldn't get it to work reliably though.

Tapping the back of my phone now, I can see it maybe working for some types of games/shooters where you don't have to hold down the fire button, if implemented well (which probably isn't easy to do for all hardware). The tactile feedback of smacking the phone could help provide a good experience if paired with appropriate audio/visuals.

This isn't quite the same thing, but the Playstation Vita has a rear touchpad, and not a ton of games managed to use it well, even with the much higher precision (Tearaway[1] is the only good one I can remember).
