I wanted to find some views on the the impossible/beyond GMO meat substitutes vs organic, grass-fed, which many contend is the gold standard for healthy meat, not regular feedlot / grain raised beef.

Found a number of different perspectives [1], [2], [3] [4] [5]

Most alarming was the presence of GMO, and soy & glyphosate connection alleged by testing from Moms Across America [6] found in both varieties (They are anti-GMO and anti-vaxx in the pre-covid term, using the original vaccine defintion). A vegan response by The Reasoned Vegan to these allegations and testing can be found at [7] which raised questions about the overblown testing hyperbole by Moms Across America. Consequently, I don't have a strong opinion on the veracity of the testing.

However, given my biases towards organic, grass-fed and away from both soy, GMO, and feedlot/grain cattle, the Chiropractor Dr. Pompa best captured a nuanced view with which I concur. [8] I say this because I've known many vegans, and the one I dated expressed concerns around the negative implications of a heavy soy diet that led to her to cut out all soy, and head more towards a raw food diet.

How you detect country code?
I mean, that's just a side effect of being popular. In the 2000s, Windows was the no. 1 vector, which Apple kept riding the coattails of with their "no viruses" slogan until macOS became popular enough to be targetable and they had to eat crow.

Right now, if you give me a random device, chances are the way I'll jailbreak it is through the random fork of WebKit installed on it.

Everything with mass distribution eventually becomes the vector.
It's not spying, it's the first party revenue. It's easier to collect a fee for an app install and for Apple to take a huge cut. App dominance was very deliberately engineered by Apple. It didn't happen organically.
You've misread me. Eich wouldn't have saved Mozilla. Having many fewer ideological employees who insisted on conformity would have saved Mozilla.

Conformity is not just a problem for politics. Read TFA - these are all conformity problems - Mozilla gets angry at people who disagree with their point of view - whether it is that tabs belong on top or that Eich is an evil abusive person or that Proton is surely better than XUL. A company that better tolerated diversity in their employees would be better set up to tolerate diversity in their users.
As far as I remember, Pascal admitted single-pass analysis. Such languages are especially amenable to being interpreted, i.e. immediately translated into executable actions (vs. some sort of bytecode).
Why not both? Usually during the winter you have access to extremely cold showers. Where I live it is what we do - fight with snowballs outside or in the pool and then in the sauna

Now if a fresh macOS install on a common 5-year-old laptop could be set up out of the box with a working swap (8gb ram is not enough) and working power management (staying on until battery dies is not an option) as well as working suspend and hibernate, perhaps we could some day declare the year of the Mac desktop.
That's what happens when you try to disenfranchise and take away the livelihood of 10s of millions of people.
While we're at it, the "Open Positions" page needs some work.

I see that the page is hosted on notion.io so this might be a review of their process, not yours, but it will certainly affect you if you depend on it for acquiring talent. Clicking the links under the "Open Positions" heading simply opens a small text popup repeating the name of the position. In fact, these are not even links so non-mouse-users cannot target them.

Here's your screenshot, tested on Firefox 91 on Kubuntu with and without an ad blocker.

I learned programming in my teenage age with Pascal. Sometimes I wonder about this too: typed, compiled, no garbage col, pointer arithmetic. With TUrbo Pascal I have the entire IDE and a compiler in single floppy.
Your point is also true.
Sync is optional, and you can use a custom server and self host it.
Really fascinating project. It sent a chill down my spine as I suddenly recalled being in school, both because of the videos as well as the OS (we used Macs in art/design class). This was before streaming and smartphones were around so the only way we could see what was happening was by going into classrooms with TV's hooked up. I don't think we had access to CNN but we probably watched some American channel. I felt like the world was going to enter a third World War, what with the immediate connection to Pearl Harbor. It was impossible to continue doing school work that day.
Lots of BIOS/efi just really suck.

On the enterprise side of things loading up a board with bootable raid and 10g cards will lead to situations where the raid card needs to go topologically first or early so the raid bios has memory to load.
I remember as a kid being baffled by the weird memory layout for the Apple II's high-res graphics mode. Each contiguous row in memory corresponded to non-contiguous rows on the screen, probably to reduce top-to-bottom flickering on an NTSC display. The choice seemed to be between using BASIC, which abstracted away the layout but was extremely slow, or using 6502 assembly, which was fast but required my 11-year-old brain to invent an impossibly complicated algorithm for manipulating the memory.

Then one day I was disassembling the bootloader for a game disk. I think it was Borg; it showed a little dragon creature in the center of the screen that jumped each time the disk controller needed to move to a new track on the diskette. In 256 bytes, this code generated a look-up table for each screen row's starting location in memory, used it to blit incredibly fast, and loaded the game. And of course it left enough room for the dragon image itself. That snippet of code taught me at least a semester's worth of simple CS concepts.

As an aside to an aside, many cracked versions of Apple II games omit the loading screens, whose code was often enmeshed with the copy-protection code that needed to be neutralized. While many crackers replaced them with their own comparably creative loaders, I suspect many of the original elegant and cute screens are lost to history.
Long-term changes in habits and culture take a long time — if they happen at all. The effect of this decision is that we can decrease the beef-related methane production by spending mere years changing mere hundreds of supply chains instead of spending spending fruitless decades trying decades to enforce new dietary habits on millions of defiant Texans or Pakistanis.
Disagree here. Thinkpad P52 (16GB Ram and i7-8750H) running Windows 10 Pro. Absolutely no issues with Firefox. I always find it strange when people talk about FF issues. I never had any on Linux, MacOS or Windows. Always worked for me. Rarely do I run Chrome. I do use Edge a lot though as all my 'work' stuff resides there - Mail, Slack. It works pretty well.

I run Steam on the same machine (AoE III) with Firefox, LibreOffice Calc open as well and it's just smooth. No overheating or anything.
They’re not even uniformed. The device perfectly matches what they need and when it doesn’t they have every resource to see what other device does. HM grievances are not reflected of what the general consumer wants.
This is getting downvoted because it's snarky, but look, barbecue is a cultural staple. The climate/PETA/imitation beef proponents are just priming to pump on the Virtue-Signaling-Politicization-Industrial complex, which will inevitably transform the cheeseburger into a political statement.

The last thing we need is to turn cheeseburgers into a political statement.

You want to make real progress?

Don't pick fights with hourislate's barbecue--it sounds like a great time.

At least in the US, there's no chance of convincing more than a tiny minority of people to give up cheeseburgers and barbecue.

But on the other hand, if you promote non-meat dishes from around the world (falafel, shakshuka, black bean tacos, pastas, you get the idea) it's entirely possible for the average person who eats meat every day to switch for a few meals per week, whether they're motivated by climate, health, or just really liking tacos.

And take a hard look at restaurant portion sizes. In a lot of cases they've doubled since the 1980's.

It's easy to imagine this as a 25% reduction in meat usage, without picking a losing battle against backyard barbecues.

>Can you help me understand why you choose to compare USA vs Iceland (which is fraught with confounding factors)

I didn’t, the parent brought up Iceland. What are the confounding factors?

>Iceland(early) vs Iceland (now)

Ok, at its peak Iceland had 2x the number of new daily cases during its delta wave as its prior wave owing to the increased transmissibility of Delta. Despite this, hospitalizations during their delta wave were 1/3 of the prior wave. Unvaccinated Icelanders were also 2x more likely to be infected during their delta wave. It is undeniable that vaccination reduces hospitalization and infection rate.

What did "marriage rights" actually change? I know taxes changed, and I assume there were some property implications beyond just sticking it to bigoted Christians, but that last part seemed to be the major feature.
Epic over Citrix…

I think it’s a stretch to call Citrix a traditional desktop app in this context.
That's the correct default view of software.

Where we've gone astray is that people don't treat "apps" the same way.
Did government go to your door and make you sign the contract of non-commercial driver license? Or did you go to a government office and volunteer? This was litigated at USSC decades ago.

Federal personal income tax does generally apply to federal government employees. When a non-govt employer withholds from your paycheck it does become difficult to then get out of volunteering to pay.

Are you a commercial driver and also federal employee? Or like most people do you shuffle in to the lines to voluntarily contribute?
My family raise one steer in our back yard. It feeds two families for a year. Do you consider this animal abuse? Do you consider it a source of groundwater or air pollution?

I'm genuinely curious and somewhat open to being persuaded. It's hard for me to see it, but there could be an argument for it.

Or perhaps you feel that those things are a product of industrial scale. If so, can you not conceive any solution that would involve less than 100% reduction?
The last version messed up macos dark mode completely. It ignores much css including including add-ons like tree style tabs which is the main reason I use firefox. So I am stuck on v90

One thing I really like about Proton is with smaller indie games, they almost always work perfectly. When I tell a developer their new game works flawlessly on Linux they are usually grateful that the question of whether to port or not to Linux gets answered for them in a positive way.
VMs suppose you still have the OS images and applications at hand, and make it more difficult to mass-handle all this information in a convenient / workable way. They require powerful machines, and, indeed, advanced emulators.

But I'd argue that this is realistic for most publisher. See for example bbc.co.uk or theguardian.com. Their articles render well even in a terminal-based browser without CSS like w3m. For me this shows that this is realistic. What special need would require a publisher to break this?

You may still use complex CSS/HTML/JavaScript, only the page should render well without the complexity. Graceful degradation / progressive enhancement are okay.

I actually browse the Web with JS disabled by default and many things work actually well. Problematic pages are documents that are written like applications with a frontend framework, leading to blank pages. Or pages that have a strange behavior like an endless redirection/refresh when Javascript is disabled. Yes, I've seen that. Those pages are probably difficult to archive and will probably be harder to handle in the future.

Is there a fundamental difference between a remote administration tool and a remote access trojan?
I'm with you. Applications change. I have no objections with what they've been doing and I'm always surprised by the vitriol. Then I remember the people taking the time to comment about Firefox are predominantly the ones complaining. Squeaky wheels and all that...
> "The biggest problem is anti cheat software. As soon as they figure that out it’ll get a lot higher!"

Doesn't "figure it out" likely mean rather invasive and user hostile kernel module(s) to prevent cheating? Because the alternative is that Linux becomes the preferred OS for cheaters and the game makers redouble their efforts to detect it; Valve's interests in promoting Linux are not necessarily aligned with studios' interests in promoting a cheater free experience.
On the topic of rebound effect, it seems to me that for energy efficiency to work you need a carrot and stick are necessary. Help your country to become more energy efficient but as they do, tax externalities more severely.

Stuff like this makes me wonder if in the future there are entire planets where life is simulated virtually. "Live through the 90s" planet.

Would be interesting to have an entire website like this where you can tune to any day and hear the news. And eventually more than just media.
That's unfortunate. "Works perfectly but doesn't perform well" is an oxymoron for games.
> The real question is how did the web remain relevant while being so far behind this tectonic platform shift?

Because CSS +HTML + JS is 20x easier to learn than any mobile code language. Anyone in a few hours can create a website, that has never been the case for mobile apps.

You can even create a basic website by copy pasting some html template and modifying the content with notepad.

As a result - as long as Google doesn't decide to deprecate HTML and CSS because it doesn't suit their complex requirements - the web is assured that much more people will be able to create website than apps. When you look at Kotlin or Swift, HTML looks like a no-code language
I sometimes forget how surreal that day was. Was in high school at the time and sort of at “that age” where the world was still pretty small and revolved around me.

Mom waking me up to say “you need to watch this,” with the TV on and both towers are on fire. The morning variety newscasters breaking their household familiarity speaking in a frightening shock that was so out of character.

Still went to school that day and there was a big assembly and then we sort of carried on as normal through motions. I remember every week on Tuesday we had to turn in an analysis of a world event for one of our classes and mine suddenly felt so insignificant compared to the attacks (kinda wish I remember what I had written).

I think the pandemic has far more historical significance but nothing for me will feel more visceral than 9/11. I appreciate this is likely a very American -centric perspective but it’s how I feel.
French here. I've an American keyboard, not only because my company language is english, but especially because writing code on a US layout is from far the best. [], {}, () can be typed directly or by pressing shift. On a French keyboard, you've the additional Alt-GR key which must be used (second Alt key), which makes some keys awkward to type efficiently - if you've a MacBook, the Alt-Gr key doesn't event exist, which makes writing code a nightmare ([ and { just don't exist!!).

Then, numbers which are very common to type when writing code must be typed by pressing shift. A French keyboard is made to write French efficiently, arguably English too, but definitely not to write code.
The CSS "hack" is the official way. That's sort of the point of using CSS to display the UI. It's editable.
As I am sweating while writing this note, may I recommend Dakar/Senegal where you can have free sauna anywhere. If you step outside, you also get a free tanning session.
Save and load your Workspace – Free | MacOS only
Helo Here's an app that we developed to easily save and load your workspace.
App is still in beta. - might have bugs. Would love some feedback and help.

Why we did it: Working from home is quite difficult. You have to open every morning the same apps. You have to resize them. Then at the end of the day, you close them. You have to open your fun space.
Why not switch between the space layouts easier?

Functionality:
* Records Open apps and attempts to launch them in the same place when you launch it.
* Data for each Space is recorded in a folder - You can customise it.
* Maximum 12 Workspaces for now
* Run scripts together with the Space. Example: - Starting a specific Spotify Playlist - Opening specific links via your choice - Changing the background.
* New Update checker.
* Records Activity inside the Workspace ( for future dashboard - time tracking functionality)
* Secure: No data is transferred outside. Only you have access to the data.
Free download here. (link to website) Open source Git coming next week (We are doing some cleaning). If you like the app and wish to help us improve it

Have you heard about the tragedy of commons? If there is no superior authority to enforce this, some people will want to get an advantage on other people by using more these resources.
yeah, more or less the same experience (except I never got to the point of disassembling bootloaders).

What I do remember is the cracked version of Ultima IV, you could hit Control-C while booting and there was, just laying around, a file that played polyphonic music on the Apple (also a cool assembly trick). And All those BBSes... lost in time.

It's funny you mention the lookup table. If I had just known how to do that, I could have done row addressing.
The problem I had was that the width (in pixels) of the screen was larger than the Apple's 8-bit operands, and I got stuck on thinking I needed to do multiple-byte additions (with carries) manually.
the language of the law suggests that it's prohibited based on their political viewpoints versus isolating a specific political viewpoint.

The recent events, where conservative voices were targeted by big tech, was the catalyst for the law, but that doesn't make it illegal.
Do you think in binary about everything?

The vaccine doesn’t stop transmission, it reduces it. If there is a .1% of mutation happening per transmitted case, then a vaccine that prevents 70% of transmissions is still invaluable, and those who aren’t getting vaccinated are playing haphazardly with everyone else’s health. The less the times dice are rolled, the harder it is for the virus to continue being viable.

For many people wireless connectivity is spotty at best; particularly rural USA, most of Canada, and much of the non-western world.

Whereas home internet connections tend to be fairly reliable.

Anecdotally, I don't rely on web apps because the terrible network reliability that I have means that they are frustratingly slow and frequently outright break. Native mobile apps work just fine.

Sounds like you should read Hyperion! Such a good series...
We're talking about Taiwan. China sets them up in the fields in a few of the rural communities near Xiamen. They simultaneously lift off from the fields. They fly at ~25mph. They take perhaps three hours to clear the water between Taiwan and China. There's a million of them. They're slow, but fairly agile.

Looking at the video, it looks like the C-RAM system is shooting perhaps dozens of rounds per second. Shooting down a million drones would take many hours of continuous shooting, assuming every bullet hit, which it wouldn't.

And a Patriot missile is $2-3 million.

I think the future of warfare is likely to be cheap, small, but smart and precision.

* A small drone flies into a gun barrel and explodes.

* A small drone flies into a jet air intake, and explodes, spraying material designed to damage the engine as it passes through

* A small drone deposits a chemical weapon in a ship's HVAC intake

* A small drone sprays corrosive paint on a camera, on a jet window, other surface we look through

* A small drone launches a single bullet to kill a mechanic

... and so on.

I think a lot of this goes like rock-paper-scissors, where a million $1000 drones overwhelms a $1 billion ship. On the other hand, a hundred thousand $10,000 drones could probably make quick work of a million $1000 drones. And so on.

I don't see the connection between the two things that you seem to be making: namely between having a bare setup and an increased productivity.

We only have your word for it and it doesn't look factual to me at all.

F.ex. in Spacemacs the ability to fuzzy-find file names and file contents has saved me a lot of hours in the last several years. I absolutely don't see how I would work faster on those 1000+ files projects if I didn't have that functionality.

Want to elaborate on that point in particular? How does a naked editor help you in this scenario? Or will you claim that you know what's where in every single file in the projects you're working on?

Sorry to be a bit flippant but IMO you and your parent ventured way too deep into the "let's pat each other on the back about how minimalistic our environments are and how productive are we as a result" territory. Or "those crazy youngsters making their lives harder for no reason at all, am I right?" one.
