I haven't read the links you posted but from the title it doesn't sound like either of them imply the holocaust or COVID were made up. IMO GP's comment applies doubly here, you're just conditioned to have a kneejerk reaction over any non-mainstream opinion.

I haven't seen you or anyone cite a source that shows that particular product is the primary source of ivermectin overdoses. In my area, people are obtaining ivermectin pills which are marketed and intended for humans.

So, again, calling it "horse deworming medication" is inflamatory and incorrect.

In addition, it's not inherently more dangerous given the cases. You can dose either product incorrectly, or correctly.

Also, by using such narrow terminology aren't you implying it's okay to take ivermectin pills intended for humans for a purpose it has not been approved for?

Your language is designed to be incendiary, and its effects are horrible. Human people need ivermectin. It is an incredibly useful drug for humans. Stop demonising it with a broad stroke based on mass media campaigns (the same mass media that spread the lie that masks were ineffective in early 2020).

Looks like quite a few imperial units are already defined: https://pint.readthedocs.io/en/stable/

Plus it also looks like the author has thought this through in a very comprehensive manner:

* Using contexts for unit redefinition

The exact definition of a unit of measure can change slightly depending on the country, year, and more in general convention. For example, the ISO board released over the years several revisions of its whitepapers, which subtly change the value of some of the more obscure units. And as soon as one steps out of the SI system and starts wandering into imperial and colonial measuring systems, the same unit may start being defined slightly differently every time - with no clear ‘right’ or ‘wrong’ definition.

The default pint definitions file (default_en.txt) tries to mitigate the problem by offering multiple variants of the same unit by calling them with different names; for example, one will find multiple definitions of a “BTU”:

british_thermal_unit = 1055.056 * joule = Btu = BTU = Btu_iso
international_british_thermal_unit = 1e3 * pound / kilogram * degR / kelvin * international_calorie = Btu_it
thermochemical_british_thermal_unit = 1e3 * pound / kilogram * degR / kelvin * calorie = Btu_th
That’s sometimes insufficient, as Wikipedia reports no less than 6 different definitions for BTU, and it’s entirely possible that some companies in the energy sector, or even individual energy contracts, may redefine it to something new entirely, e.g. with a different rounding.

Pint allows changing the definition of a unit within the scope of a context. This allows layering; in the example above, a company may use the global definition of BTU from default_en.txt above, then override it with a customer-specific one in a context, and then override it again with a contract-specific one on top of it.*

Isn't this a power set thing? The cardinality of a power set doesn't increase factorially.
The majority of these discussions are starting in the wrong place, I think. Instead of asking whether this specific feature is good or bad, we should start by asking whether Apple should be doing anything to try to stop the sexual exploitation of children.

If the answer is "no, it's not Apple's job." then of course these plans are terrible.

If the answer is "yes, Apple should try to use it's immense power and wealth to try to stop a terrible evil" - then the obvious follow up question is "How?".

They could do whatever ever other company is doing and just looking at all of your data, but Apple didn't want to do that. So they came up with a system that they felt was a good compromise between privacy and trying to stop the spread of CSAM. If you want to quibble about the implementation details, that's fine. But if your position is that they shouldn't be looking at your data at all, then you have to go back to the first question and say "Apple should not be trying to stop the exploitation of children."

Now you might say, "Yes, but 'what about the children?' has been used to justify terrible things." Granted. But... "what about the children?" is a very important question to ask and shouldn't be used as a cliche to dismiss Apple's attempt to make the world a better place in this area.
Yes and no. Am I surprised that a human resource extracting paperclip factory would stive to optimize every last minute of the employee's time? No I am not. Do humans need rest and rewards, to feel special, loved, significant, and appreciated, and do they work better for longer periods of time when they are getting all that, and is it a supprising waste of long term value for short term gain? Yes!
Why would you want to dismiss someone's research because you disagree with one of their premises? Do you automatically assume they've fudged their findings to fit? Because that sounds like source picking as well.

20th century America has spent years doing exactly this. It's still ongoing in Texas right at the minute. People have been fired for being atheist.

Every trans person I know knew this about themselves as a young child. They were not "influenced." Many of them had no idea that being trans was possible and thought they were gay, if they knew what that was.

Do you by chance sit around at a PC all day and get less exercise than you really should? I'm not sure I'd pin this on a biology thing just yet, there's so many things that could cause that

Losing weight and getting exercise gave me all sorts of "manly" traits. Turns out sitting around letting your muscles go to goo can mess with your systems a bunch. I have to shave too often now if anything haha

However if we wanted to turn this into a hypothesis our first stumble is that not all gender dysphoric people are overweight, so it's probably not that
This kind of thinking can go quite far if taken to its logical conclusion. The question therefore is, do _you_ want to live in a world where everyone is fighting everyone else over the most irrelevant of actions or even wrongthink? I know I don't.

I much prefer to be persuaded to vote for or against something than have to state my opinions under the barrel of a proverbial gun. After a free and fair election, I accept the results and move on, even if things do not go my way. Seems more civilized and less painful than all known alternatives.

My reply is the only one which links to a publication which attempts to directly answer OP's question and includes both praise and criticism of said publication.

I think therefore that anyone can judge for themselves whether said publication is "anti-science" or "anti-fact" and your help is not required. I feel perfectly comfortable allowing people to think for themselves, especially since this publication is not obviously bollocks: it was awarded both the Economist and Times book of the year prizes.

Finally, based on what I've seen from the scientific community around politicised topics like this one, any link (especially from US-affiliated organisations) should be by default open to questioning and not unassailable proof. Although given that it's psychology it should probably just be outright ignored for a couple of decades until they manage to form a coherent opinion.
If you say, 'Yes, apple should be doing something, but not this." I'd love to hear your ideas about how Apple can do more to stop CSAM while better protecting your privacy.

I'm stating my experience. This is a fact.

Interestingly, the Forbes article you're referencing is partially based on this paper: https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jama/article-abstract/26126... which confirms a link between advertising and voluntary testosterone testing (entirely supporting my point). Men are being targeted by advertising that encourages them to think about their bodies differently.
> It says "the media are going crazy" over "woke stuff", but seems to make the assumption that "Latinx" is being actively pushed on Latino people, which seems like it isn't true--since if it were, far more of them would actually know it was a word.

You might have misunderstood my point. I'm saying the media cares, not the Latinos. They don't care, otherwise they'd be out there saying they want to be called Latinx -- instead, they don't even know that there's a debate. Similarly, most people of most cultures don't care for the concept of cultural appropriation, yet there's a fuzz in the corporate media about it.

Since German has gendered nouns with the male form usually doubling as the neutral form (e.g. teacher = Lehrer, female teacher = Lehrerin), there's been a push by the media, academics and politicians to gender (e.g. to say either Lehrende = "those who teach" or use things like Lehrer_innen which is supposed to also include transsexuals, non-binary and intersex). The public is opposed to it, but the corporate media and politicians are forcing the issue and the opposition gets stronger.

The only group that is split on the issue are those still in education, where indoctrination has become much more severe.
I remember this too. First year of university in 1991, me and my friends who'd all gone to different places used to write actual letters on paper and post them to each other. I was on the internet for the first time, and was excited to be able to download pictures! I could print them out and include them in the letters. If I remember correctly I needed to compile some kind of image viewer/manipulator on my account on the DEC Mips machine we CS students had access to. Anyway, as you say it was amazing watching the autoconf script feeling its way around and discovering its environment.

>> don't want you to lose your job because you don't agree with me.

But lots of people want that power. It is within living memory that people could be fired or denied employment based on thier religion. Many today still want thier religion beliefs to be enforced against believers and non-believers alike (abortion, education, marriage, adoption, right to die etc). Not every person of faith is so liberal about the affairs of others. Many call for a return to a past where religious "values" were enforced by the state at the point of a sword.
While I do not disagree with anything you say, you also completely ignore that chemical pollution in our drinking water and food has been shown to cause changes in us.

Instead of completely ignoring their point and just telling them to accept themselves as they are, why should we not also be looking at our environment and asking if it is impacting us?
I'm not sure why companies think that restricting usage this way improves their product in any way. You need a different build, and an online account to do something that should require neither.

Heck, I can only partially understand the "click many times over crap" to enable experimental features, which should have been _enough_ to begin with (and certainly not a requirement in a beta build). How many hoops do I need?

After reading this, I was really /hoping/ Fennec would remove the requirement of having a Mozilla account, but no, you still need to create an account and an useless "collection".

TBH I use (and ever used) Firefox just due to the available extensions. The value proposition has decreased quite a bit with recent FF versions, and on Android uBlock is pretty much the only reason I stick to it.

I wish I had more alternatives, because clearly the browser duopoly isn't working.

This is one of the best hidden features of uBlock. While we're on the topic, how does one effectively block facebook ads?

I've got simple rules to chop the ads from LinkedIn, but if you do an inspect on FB, they've been very sneaky about how the elements are set up, eg it doesn't just say "Sponsored" in a string, it's a weird mash that ends up looking like that when rendered but hard to nail down.

Then again I'm more of a backend dev, so maybe that's why I don't know what to do.
I just seek functionality like WhatsApp or whatever I have by hand.
I wasn't. I have always felt autoconf was the wrong solution because it gives in to the problem.

Uname -a having a build hash, and an index of hash to settings would have done better. Think of all the wasted CPU cycles computing how this chip orders a long long and testing POSIX compliance one function at a time.

Autoconf only fixes the apparent problem. Not the underlying disease.

At least X11 tried encoding the known patterns.

Part of me doubts that it's a permanent shift. There was a hippie movement in the 60s and 70s in the US, but conservatives are still going strong 50 years later.
Unfortunately, it's not "your" pistol emoji; it's someone else's, that you're reading on your device. And likewise, the expression of your thoughts is already controlled by the emoji font installed by the other person.

I also think it's a silly change that software vendors had absolutely no business making, but I am afraid that the battle is largely lost. All popular platforms now render the pistol as a squirt gun. Rendering it differently on your own computer achieves little.

Very strange that OpenMoji seemingly calls it a "water pistol" while continuing to render a revolver, however. That's surely going to annoy everyone...

It seems to me, after quickly reading liquisoap documentation, that Faust is much more low-level: liquidsoap would connect different audio effects, whereas Faust can be used to write the audio effects, at the level of sample-by-sample processing.

I don't think their attempts at upping the birthrate are going to succeed. The CCP is fighting against the larger trend of decreasing fertility rates in all post-industrialized nations, while trying to promote stability... they started later and they got to the wrong side of the inverted pyramid faster than the west. Now, if they do have success with a baby boom it may come with unintended consequences. The party leadership is aging, worse, ossifying. It's going to get less and less easy to put down youth protests the more Xi starts to look like Fidel Castro. Maybe their technological cage can keep citizens too afraid to talk to each other, but they're too well connected to the rest of the world to not know what's going on. And you can't cut the cord. That's why the laws against video games, and the censorship of LGBTQ media, have to be pushed as a nationalistic marketing campaign rather than forced as Maoist dictats. (Although the idea of Mao banning video games is kinda funny). China will never be a superpower unless they have a liberal French-style democratic revolution. Then all bets are off. A democratic China might take over the world. Other than that, the worst the west has to fear from that quarter is losing our own souls in the process of doing business with a genocidal government. It hasn't stopped us from buying toasters on Amazon yet.

I'm not sure where the confusion is coming from.

If userspace wants to distinguish files, it normally does so with a (ino_t, dev_t) pair. With some nuance wrt inode generations if you aren't holding on to files yet want to guard against ino reuse, and some funkyness with overlayfs.

Most filesystems don't expose a way to access files by ino only, so the internal implementation generally doesn't key anything by them or rely on them itself; they're just a kind of of uniqueness cookie. But keying by them somewhere in the kernel implementation is feasible, if you scope it properly.
I can easily do all those but references and foreign keys. Not even going to think about that until alpha 3.
Have you considered that oppression of trans people causes them to hide and the more widespread acceptance of other LGB identities causes trans people to let themselves be more visible in everyday life? Just because you didn't see them before doesn't mean they weren't there.
Heh. If you replaced “leftist movements” with “human movements” then I’d be with you. Witness the ever developing criteria for identifying and excising “RINOs” from the Trump movement. Find any decently sized organization with humans in it, and you will find a subset of its members actively attempting to identify and excise inpure members. The fallacy you are demonstrating is the notion that such behavior is relegated to a particular other group, as though ostracizing behavior doesn’t predate the very concept of “left” vs “right”.
