I received the full two doses of an mRNA vaccine and I’ll get a third if it’s recommended. I’m confident it’s safe and effective.

I still take issue with your inclusion of “known misinformation” and “known factual information”. Sure, in the case of the vaccines, the known facts and misinfo seem to be pretty clear cut and that in this particular case, the people spreading the misinfo are wrong. That doesn’t mean that at some point in the future we won’t face a situation where the facts are less clear and the debate IS legitimate. We saw this with lab leak, and we even saw this with the use of masks early on.
Google Maps may have problems, but Apple Maps still has _problems_. Apple Maps still regularly takes me down roads closed for months, and has huge omissions in the business data set. One glaring example of the feature gap is apple maps on desktop versus google maps.

I don't think Apple Maps is bad, btw, and i think it's very good that they're trying to nip at Google's heels. But it's not even close.
Ridiculous. Walkability is a key trait of affluent, nice neighborhoods.

There's plenty of research on this: https://www.brookings.edu/research/walk-this-waythe-economic...

Seems like the posters in this thread are more concerned with being hypersensitive about "wokeness" than reality.

"Poor people walk more, ergo this article gets it wrong" is the ultimate confluence of idiocy and privilege.
You're absolutely right, of course. :)
While this was not the point of this article, I just added a remark about this important fact nonetheless: https://github.com/Dobiasd/articles/commit/2a251204183cb45e7...

I'd like to read the detailed summary of CCP's policy and effects in Tibet. I was born and grew up in China's Shanxi province, got college degree in Shanghai and masters in Beijing, all in top universities; which means that I was subject to constant indoctrination and massaged (or even fabricated) information all the time. There has never been detailed political reports on sensitive issues like managing Tibet.

But I guess we wont see such a report ever.

Edit:
The linked report: http://www.xinhuanet.com/english/download/TheCPCItsMissionan...

It's a general report on CPC's goals and achievements. Still browsing through it, but there is only one apperance of Tibet in the whole word (!...) doc:

```
Since its 18th National Congress, the CPC has faced challenges such as hegemony and unilateralism. It has seen blatant external interference in China’s internal affairs related to Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, Tibet Autonomous Region, Hong Kong Special Administrative Region

I'm surprised myself to say this - Xfinity Mobile had the best security of all the mobile phone providers. SIM Swap is via a generated code that you have to login to generate. Customer Service verifies a ton of information before they look into your account. It's also generally cheaper than TMobile - but some features are sorely missing/lacking - they're still new.

All that said, Comcast Internet's business practices is outright awful - they lied to me multiple times about my plan and discounts. And you need Comcast to use Xfinity - it's very expensive otherwise.
> The concept of a war front has been already muddled since the advent of airplanes.

True, but airplanes have to fly back. I'd say cruise missiles, then UAVs/drones and loitering munitions have continued to blur the lines. Having loitering bots of war on the ground will be a further escalation.
US Manufacturing is still going. In fact, we manufacture more than ever. Folks conflate manufacturing with manufacturing _jobs_. Our manufacturing is more efficient then ever which is why you constantly hear this false refrain that US manufacturing is down or gone.
Up until web 2.0 and the smart phone revolution it was mostly hardware, and mostly business. What changed was once the majority of the consumer market and attention span was tapped via ubiquitous web and mobile penetration which opened up the possibility for software companies to extract maximum value from every single consumer.

Consider this:

I know it was trash when it came out, but Apple Maps surprisingly seems to often find significantly shorter routes than Google. Google Maps always tells me to go to the nearest interstate while Apple Maps seems better at recognizing if a local highway is actually faster.
This pretty much just comes down to estimate how much you're going to need and then go for that in the first place.

Which I imagine is what people would be aiming for anyway? I don't think anyone is using YAGNI knowing they are in fact going to need it.

Mods of the major subreddits have been on payrolls for years. Its a topic that used to come up with regularity ~6 years ago. I would be absolutely shell-shocked if it wasn't commonplace now.
They're also pretty seriously wrong about HyperCard:

> Apple brought color to its HyperCards, but notably, the text links were still black and not blue.

HyperCard never natively supported any form of "text links". You could make a button with a text label, or a transparent button hovering over text, but there was no way to attach a behavior to a span of styled text without a lot of custom scripting.

(And, for what it's worth, the color XCMD for HyperCard never really caught on. It was a late addition, and never felt entirely like a native part of the application. Even when it was available, most users kept on authoring stacks in black and white.)

> However, some UI elements did have blue accents when interacted upon

I have no idea what the author is referring to here. Possibly the blue tint in the system UI (like window titlebars), which has nothing to do with HyperCard and didn't apply to its in-app UI?
Tmobile is technically different companies in Europe and US, although Tmobile in Europe owns 43% of Tmobile US, and interestingly, the German government owns 32% of Tmobile Europe.

Tmobile is also widely considered to be the worst of the 3 US mobile networks (Verizon is considered to have the best coverage, then ATT, then Tmobile). Their pricing reflects that too, as Verizon is the most expensive, then ATT, then Tmobile.

injury to insult: GChat (whatever it was just previously called) was disabled for me, directing me to use it directly in Gmail.

The problem is, on the tablets I have for my kids (Galaxy Tab A) the GMail app doesn't include the Chat feature! So google has effectively killed my ability to chat with my kids. (Yes I checked settings, nothing to enable there)

I think we are talking past each other a bit. I guess it boils down to the question “where does the incentive to make widespread personal changes come from?”

Perhaps the CFC problem is a better analogy. CFCs cause problems with the ozone layer, so CFCs were mandated to be removed from products that people bought like ACs and hairspray. In that instance, the supply chain was fixed, so the option to buy CFC hairspray was removed.

I think the same fix applies here. Renewable energy, ending single-use plastic packaging, etc. are all things that should be done in order to decrease negative effects. That’s not to say people don’t have to or shouldn’t also make our own personal changes, only that the impact of changing the supply chain is much greater.

I think you've misunderstood which direction I imagine the sunlight going here.

1. You seem to think that Joe Rogan is not very reliable or trustworthy. How do you know that? Because of past interviews where he nodded along with a crackpot, right? Isn't that valuable information? Doesn't that help you evaluate new information you get from him?

2. The choice we are faced with is not, "Should we allow nonsense to be broadcasted"; it is "What should we do in response to it." In each of these cases, I think it's pretty important to be aware of what happened.

If you could time travel back to, say, 2000, and you had a choice of either trying to "bury" Wakefield's work to keep people from hearing about it or to promote the idea that his work was bunk, which would you choose? I think the latter would be more effective, wouldn't it?
Pyantic and Cattrs both suffer with unacceptable issues and footguns. I have used Pydantic in production a lot and have played around with Cattrs. I've also looked at similar libraries like Dacite and marshmallow-dataclasses but none seem to be well thought out and mature.

* Neither Pydantic nor Cattrs handle unions like how I'd expect (although Cattrs has stronger guarantees in converting Unions)

>>> class Y(BaseModel): pass
>>> class X(BaseModel): pass
>>> class Z(BaseModel): a: Union[X, Y]
>>> Z(a=Y())
Z(a=X()) # Converts Y to X implicitly

Cattrs has some problems with generics [1] [2]. Dacite and marshmallow-dataclasses don't support generics well either, with some issues around Union types.

They do work well for simple python types but what I'd like to see is guarantee that the serialisation operation is completely reversible and if not raise warning/exception.

Per the OP:

> Higher self-reported mask use protected against SARS-CoV-1 in Beijing residents [30], but RCTs found no differences in PCR confirmed influenza among Hong Kong households assigned to hand hygiene with or without masks [mask use 31% and 49%, respectively] [31]. Medical and cloth masks did not reduce viral respiratory infections among clinicians in Vietnam [9] or China [10], and rhinovirus transmission increased among universally masked Hong Kong students and teachers in 2020 compared with prior years [32]. These findings are consistent with a 2020 CDC meta-analysis [33] and a 2020 Cochrane review update.

Care to cite the literature you're reading that contradicts these statements? I'm genuinely interested in learning more about the state of scientific consensus on this topic.
Yeah that is a serious problem. Is there a buy-in to participate in the primaries?

Conceptually there is a lot to like about Alpine.

But the problem is, as much as I want to like it and use it, there have always been rough edges to it. By and far, the biggest beef I kept on returning to with Alpine is the whole musl libc thing.

Not because that's what they ship with, because well, "my house my rules" as the saying goes.

But because the maintainers insisted on building various packages where the original external code developers stated quite clearly in their build guides that they didn't support anything other than glibc .... and yet Alpine would build and ship packages built against musl. Bit of a dangerous game to play if you ask me !

This was not random small external code bases either, we're talking about some quite well known open source projects here.

I'm not sure if they still have the same "musl or bust" package building policy these days as its been a few years since I quit using Alpine for good. Hopefully they've changed their ways since then.
Did you read any of the study? It's about the respective mental states of walking through good and bad neighborhoods.

Very poor reading comprehension from the posters in this thread.

"Forty-six student participants walked in groups through 2 urban neighbourhoods, separated by a park, in the North West of England, noting responses at pre-determined stops. Significant differences existed in participants’ sense of trust and threat between the 2 neighbourhoods along with differences in perceived resident wealth and sentiments expressed"

It's about giving credit where credit is due.

Failing to do so often and on an industrial scale quickly becomes cultural appropriation.

Proof-theoretic ordinal ε₀ isn't sufficient to prove Goodstein's theorem; the entire point is that PA has ε₀ as proof-theoretic ordinal and yet is not able to prove it.

The better point to make in the context of the parent comment is that ω is the first of many transfinite numbers; our ability to talk about multiple numbers "above infinity" is intimately related to the set theory which underlies Cantor's theorems. Infinities aren't just about some sort of mathematical game, but directly influence what we can define and describe.

I strongly agree with you and the parent comment.

Yes, people who refuse to recognize the problem beyond the greed of oil companies are a problem. Yes, oil companies are in fact a bigger problem. However, the biggest problem is if you want a government to stay in power long enough to actually do anything meaningful about eliminating carbon emissions, then announcing some kind of imminent intention to take away gasoline-powered cars and trucks is one of the worst things you can do.

I think it is also known that the signal is weak, since there are so many other unknown factors, and that makes it hard to discern from the noise (or perhaps easy to cherry-pick results). So it is possibly still an open question of whether has an impact in the short/medium/long term, whether it requires better compliance levels, or whether it simply does no harm to wear them. It seems that the measurement problem is difficult without challenge trials, and it is unclear how that could be done blinded nor even ethically.
What problem is it solving for people? Especially people who are going to disproportionately suffer the impact of climate change (ie poor people)?
I'm glad you enjoyed Contrapoints, but I'm going to have to deflate your recommendation somewhat.

She's a good performer, but most of the time she just beats around the bush and doesn't offer any solid conclusions about anything, which can leave you feeling unsatisfied.

She had some interesting insights into Incels because of her gender dysphoria, but those insights never led to any real sympathy for them, and she still essentially blamed them for all of their problems, and shrugged her shoulders about it by the end of the video.

Also, she's made some pretty fallacious claims, like when she said that denying being a fascist was evidence that you were a fascist. Or when you tried citing Christopher Hitchens argument in favor of protecting controversial speech to argue in favor of censorship. (I can reply with specific timestamps if you want to see).

I'm not convinced that she has deradicalized anyone, outside of a handful of teenagers that only ever posted edgy memes on 4chan that the never understood them the first place. None of the people who claim she deraticalized them can actually give concrete examples of what new information Contrapoints provided them that persuaded them to change their opinions about anything. I am certainly willing to listen when someone can. Instead, it is just vague platitudes about feelings and emotions, with zero substance or validation of facts.

She also did better when she included herself in her critiques. But over the last year or so, especially on Twitter, she has degenerated into a less ironic and more self-righteous direction, which is pretty cringe.
It seems to be at least partially content-related, because I've seen both Yelp and TripAdvisor in Apple Maps.
I mean, if we're going to talk about forest and trees, consider that the whole "big oil lobbies governments" thing flies right in the face of the "democracy is the voice of the people" argument. If people collectively don't care to fight back at a legislative level against socialized costs, wouldn't that logically mean they're the ones ultimately responsible for their own predicament? Or more philosophically speaking, whose fault is it that people living under democratic rules don't challenge the efficacy of their governments? Or, perhaps more importantly, why?

I think the problem with finger pointing is that it distracts from meaningful introspection. I think there are far deeper connections between oil and consumption than the "I do my part" crowd seems to realize, from the economics of the logistics industry, all the way down to the fundamental assumption that modern growth-oriented economics and consumption are even "normal" (compared to, say, how native tribes lived eons ago). In other words, merely being aware of the need for unsustainable resources in various cases doesn't fully detach us from the reality that the system we rely on to live is broken.

Sometimes I contemplate the "weird" trees in this forest: people investing into off-grid living, or people stocking up bunkers, or isolated tribes in the middle of nowhere; and I wonder if thinking about regular society in terms of scalable homogeneous solutions isn't in a way similar to breeding cavendish bananas - highly optimized in one specific metric, but susceptible to being wiped out globally by a single unforeseen threat (or in our case, by one of the many potential global catastrophes that scientists have been warning about)

If darwinism applies to civilizations, things ain't looking great for the vast majority of us precisely because we're stuck in a rut talking about ifs-and-buts instead of physically adapting to the logical end state of the trends we see in scientific data.

This is the opposite of my experience.

Under engineered code tends to be simple, straightforward work with a low blast radius, such that "make one change and test" covers most cases.

Over engineered code tends to be more convoluted, with more fan in, more fan out and a large dependency graph. Changes become more like high pressure bomb squad work, where cutting the wrong wire blows up the whole project.

If I get a task to "make the button blue" I'd rather do it in a repo where I need to grep around a little than in one where I need to debug which button factory factory library is being pulled in and applied to the parent docker image of the one running.

In 1990 NeXT released the NeXTstation Color. There are screenshots online of WorldWideWeb.app running on the NextStation Color, and the hyperlinks are all blue. It's true that Tim Berners-Lee wrote WorldWideWeb.app on monochrome NeXT cubes, but it seems reasonable that the default underlining he used (in the Text object) may have been blue when displayed in color.

Very strange that this article didn't bother to even consider or investigate this, simply dismissing the NeXT as monochrome.
