If you want leftists to engage with you in good faith, you simply need to ask the right questions. Questions that demonstrate a baseline of familiarity with the history and theory being interrogated.

The Left isn't averse to debate. The Left is averse to repeating the same tired arguments about iPhones and authority and "human nature" until the heat death of the universe. Things that have been addressed in great detail for over a century.

There is actually a lively debate taking place. It just typically doesn't take the form of Zizek vs. Peterson SuperBowl style spectacles. It takes place in literature, and in meetings among organizers trying to actually accomplish their goals. People like that don't give a flying fuck what John Stossel or Ben Shapiro have to say. This mainstream "debate culture" is so far detached from the actual struggles taking place.
It's really interesting to look at, from the US perspective.

The UK and Canadian media seems to be obsessed with US politics, yet here we barely talk about either countries. Why is that so?
I enjoyed the writing of this article.

I ended up getting a Miele machine because it was the only relatively accessible dishwasher with a water softening system.

Our town water is very hard, and all my previous dishwashers struggled with this, delivering dishes with ugly milk white streaks and residue no matter what we did. Water softening solved all the issues (I know because even the Miele washer has problems without the salt needed for the water softener to function).

That it's a very nice and well-built washer is an additional cherry on top.

> 7 Most importantly, QM explicitly introduced the mind into its basic conceptual structure since it was found that particles being observed and the observer—the physicist and the method used for observation—are linked.

Calling it "observer" was a bad decision. The measurement problem is still an open problem. Nobody likes it. Anyway, in most experiments you can replace the "observer" with a brick or other big object and get the same result.

> 9 Studies of the so-called "psi phenomena" indicate that we can sometimes receive meaningful information without the use of ordinary senses, and in ways that transcend the habitual space and time constraints.

Just get one reliable case and win the One Million Dollar Paranormal Challenge https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One_Million_Dollar_Paranormal_... [I skipped 10, because it looks difficult to replicate.]

The problem is the lack of evidence. If some of the things they describe could be testes in a reproducible and reliable way, it would be incorporated in Science very soon.
There was a post on HN a few years ago that I believe linked to scientific evidence of this, but unfortunately I cannot find that post, nor do I remember the specific terminology that the paper(s) used.
The woke are easy to understand. They are those nonconformant people who were dismissed, mocked or even bullied in schools. Now they're having a field day and directing their anger at the archetype of their bullies - a white male. Blacks are here just incidentally - the woke aren't in business of helping blacks or latinos, they're actually trying to put a wedge between blacks and whites.

The more interesting question is who's funding this show - you don't get this sort of organized and superficial activity without a command & control center.
As a current Looker power-user, this looks really solid.

One thing I’m not sure about though: can you use the metrics outside of the native tool, and if so how?

That is, I see Looker as a BI tool, not a metrics layer, since you mainly use the metrics you define inside Looker, not in other tools. On the other hand, something like MetriQL[0] is a pure metrics layer that can supposedly be used anywhere.

Is this both? If so, some better documentation around how to use the metrics layer would be helpful (or maybe I just didn’t look in the right place).

Generally, yes. I'm rather successful by my own standards.
I knew what this video was before I clicked. I love his content that gets into this type of focus. His Coleman Lantern videos were great too.
I distinctly remember getting fingerprinted for my clearance paperwork. And those that get TS/SCI have to get polygraph test every couple years.
I'm having trouble finding any state where a standard drivers license currently requires being fingerprinted. Texas did it for a little while but stopped in 2015. Some specialty licenses require it, like a commercial license to carry hazardous materials.

> The idea that you need isolated environments to run/develop programs that need different versions of libraries is regressive.

Containerization's value proposition isn't really the isolation part. That's nice and all, but it's not their main selling point.

The main selling point of containers is the fact that they solve the problems of packaging, deploying applications, and configuration, and they do so in a perfectly auditable and observable way.
No, it's not a question, because vaccine-hesitant people generally aren't doing the math like you are. They're just saying "<100 is better than 100, so I'll go with the option that might be fine."

> Every time Twitter or YouTube blocked one of these videos, people commenting on it took it as proof that its misinformation was therefore true.

This is a big issue. Deleting conspiracy and fake videos may seem like a good way to stop misinformation, but I think it provokes exactly the opposite. If it is deleted from platform A, it will be posted on platform B, and so on until it stays. In the end this creates a lot of dedicated sites where all this content are aggregated (YouTube clones, telegram chats, etc) and where only people who believes in this content stays, without anyone else to discuss back.

And worse, they do have discussion but with the wrong conclusions, so people who want to analyze and don't believe anything without seeing both sides of the story, will only find that type of discussion there, and have the wrong conclusions and believe the conspiracy and...well, we all know.

Moderation like here, hn, where this type of content is flagged or sent to the bottom but not deleted allows users to explain and discuss, so people with doubts can see for themselves the whole story, but with the better conclusions.
Which is exactly why my everyone in my car wears their seat belts. But that doesn't change the fact that it was easier to sleep when laying down in the back of the station wagon.

Coders called Programmers vs. Programmers who Code
I love coding. I have enjoyed it across a range of disciplines and projects since 1989. I have had some decent success and been financially rewarded for it. I get to love what I create. Increasingly, I am exposed to individuals who either aspire to the title (or have gotten the position) of Programmer, the coding part almost seems secondary. I find it difficult to connect and work with these individuals. It’s kind of like the passionate musician who gets paid trying to work and connect with contract musicians. I can’t change others; are there worldview adjustments I can adopt that will allow me to work with the 9-5ers more easily?
If that's the interpretation you want to go with, then the rule has to be followed consistently by reporting deaths from Covid19 among all people who "received the vaccine safely" instead of restricting such reporting to the "fully vaccinated".

Just a few lines above, he is counting as "unvaccinated" all people who are not "fully vaccinated".

Again, trust in people doing this song & dance would be higher if they did not constantly resort to tricks like this.
If you want something to have broad appeal you have to hide the key management. Users will never keep track of keys or wallets and they will lose them regularly. Most services solve this by not having the key be the source of truth for anything (i.e. iMessage, WhatsApp, and SSH) so that you can rotate them on a whim. Other services solve this by just hosting the key when it's actually important (Bitlocker). This is just an example of the latter. Sites that support "Login with Google/FB/Email" aren't some malicious conspiracy theory, they're how most people access and secure all their information.
you can do that trivially with sox (http://sox.sourceforge.net/sox.html)

alias fx="sox - -t wav -"
cat foo.wav | fx overdrive | fx reverb | play -

considering that sox has existed since the early 1990's, I'd wager that the demand for that isn't exactly huge

(note that in practice you'd directly use sox's play command to apply effects as it's certainly muuuuuuuuuuuch more efficient than to spin up a ton of processes which'll read from stdin/stdout)
What I don’t understand is why Clang doesn’t do this? What’s stopping them from shipping libc’s for cross compilation? Given that they are a C and C++ compiler, surely this is in their domain.
> So pretending ivermectin is anything other than uncontrolled experimentation is dishonest at best.

On my leafy Brooklyn street the particulate pollution outside is well within the recommended levels nearly all the time, so thankfully there's not really a pressing need to retrofit modern ventilation into a 120 year old house. That is, assuming the presence of wildfire smoke from 3000 miles away remains a rare event, which...who knows.

Can you expand on what you define as "big work"?

> Why I am reading this as: Is more easy to make money than being force for good?

That's a wholly accurate version of what I wrote. It's been quite easy to climb my salary by about double in 6 years, with potentially more rises on the horizon. I'm just about as clueless now as I was then about how to make the world a better place.
Probably more for preventing mold damage from lazy tenants I imagine.

> I don't get a pre-check card, it just shows up as a notation on my boarding pass.

(Not the person you replied to.)

These are different things. It has nothing to do with you or your eligibility, but the specific time and place.

If you're eligible for PreCheck and have it printed on your boarding pass, at some airports and security lines that don't have a PreCheck lane open, you're given a laminated card that the first agent tells you will accord some of the PreCheck benefits. As with the OP, these didn't always work in practice in my experience.

The PreCheck line can temporarily be closed in a larger airport that would normally have one, or this may be a more permanent process in a smaller airport that might not have the space.
If you're talking about a hosted k8s like EKS or a toy/single-node k8s, in 2021, then nothing: k8s is much better.

But if you're on-prem, and have a tonne of metal and just arrived in 2014 via a time machine, swarm was so much simpler and simpler that if you were a sysadmin who already had their own scripts -- their own jenkins-powered IC and git-hooks that built and deployed -- whatever it is you were building -- then swarm looked like a nice gradual extension of that, and k8s looked more like starting over and admitting defeat.
> You come home, home cooked meal, wife happy to hang out go on a walk do whatever

That also feels outdated. I don't know many people who are happy to sit at home, prepare meals for their absent spouse, and then smile and be happy to do whatever that spouse wants to do when they get home. That feels like an image from the 50s, not 2021.
$1M at 30 without any further contributions will be worth (after inflation) nearly $4M at 50, and nearly $8M at 60.

> Interior volume is optimized onto a single board. You no longer have various headers on the motherboard because of that.

The module must plug into the motherboard via a set of card edge connectors so that statement is not true. Those connectors consume board space.

To be clear, I don't dislike this idea. I just don't see the need to split the motherboard in two to allow easily swapping a part that 99% of users don't need to swap often, if ever.
Nice observation. Perhaps try to find no-rain windows of 3 or 5 days is a better idea.

> We should have some kind of dashboard tracking how many people die from terrorism, car crashes, heart disease, COVID, etc., and how much time and money we spend trying to prevent these deaths. We are just so terrible at evaluating risk, for some reason it is OK to waste everyone's time with over the top security to stop a tiny portion of terrorism deaths

The "preventing a single death is worth it" crowd has unfortunately been running the show since 9/11.

This crowd has largely driven the COVID response as well - which went well past "flatten the curve" and turned into "stop all deaths no matter the cost", ignoring all externalities and consequences along the way.
That was only true for a relatively short period of time.

> It seems, from looking at others' code, that there is a very strong temptation to lean on `unsafe` instead of figuring out how to solve a problem within the constraints it normally applies.

Are you sure those examples of unsafe Rust code were written using unsafe in order to work around safety constraints due to difficulty?

I ask because there are some very real and valid use cases for unsafe code in Rust that have nothing to do with the fact that writing the code safely might be more difficult.
China could.
This is qualitatively different, that requires a C compiler to be installed. rustc cannot compile C code itself. zig can.

> The last person deposits and there is now $900 in the bank when only $100 worth of actual work has been done. $900 has been printed out of nothing and the original $100 has been devalued.

Are you claiming that when person x gives $90 to person y for some good or service, no work was done?

It seems to me that there were 3 transactions totalling 271$ in goods or services rendered, and $271 put into the bank.

> If I printed $900 and loaned it out, I'd be arrested.

Yes, because you aren't subject to the various banking regulations. Oftentimes privileges come with responsibilities.

> I get 0.05% interest off my hard work while the bank

Well of course, leaving your money in a savings account is kinda dumb. You too should invest it in a more active way if you want to make a profit.

Well said. As for a good place to discuss this stuff, my view is that, to misappropriate the Churchill quote, HN is the worst place I've found for debating COVID matters except for all the other places I've found. At least most people here, being predominantly from scientific and engineering backgrounds, are capable of and willing to remove emotion from debate and assess the biases inherent in arguments on both sides.
Ok clearly you don't want to discuss this honestly if you want to hand-wave away the fact that unvaccinated people have much stricter testing requirements and as a consequence are tested substantially more often.
Definitely. Planning and saving for the future also has to be weighed against the risk of (you) not making it to that future.
This is how democracy works too - when you put some additional burden on an activity you should expect the activity to subside. For example, "vice taxes" are specifically aimed to reduce consumption of undesirable goods. Am I "overruling people of the state" when I quit smoking because the prices are too high? Am I "canceling" the Feds when I don't buy NFA weapons because I think the process is ridiculous?
I'm not sure the term 'leak' applies. It's an anti-cdn play. Refusing to use EDNS correctly makes the web slower for a lot of people. And it adds little to nothing to privacy since the answer IP is going to know your IP at the next step anyways...

As for why archive.is cares so much...that I don't know. Perhaps they rely on such data to give a fast experience, and are tired of this charade...but that's just speculation.

no most of those 8 billion are just trying to put food on the table by whatever means - relevance is probably the last thing on their mind - you can't blame people for trying to survive
