And yet, actual fascist governments have come to power even in nominally democratic countries.

People might only be "reasonable" when left to their own devices but there could always come a day when propaganda, sectarianism and social turmoil gets so out of hand that people don't see so reasonable anymore.

Sweat does contain more than water and salt (urea for example). This is actually long established. But these substances are hardly toxins, even though the body has reasons excreting them.

It's still unclear how you think the concentration of these things on the skin will be lower with sweat dripping down (and evaporating) than when surrounded by a hundred liters of bathwater though.
What are energy conserving materials?
I appreciate the out of the box thinking here, but the idea is to have some sort of way to have some form of organ that artificially consumes a lot of energy, passively. The same way that your heart or brain consumes energy. "Glucose Biofuel Cell" was another answer here which is more aligned in what I am thinking of.
AppleScript had this! But they ended up not shipping it.
Even so, the huge decline shows they're not interpreting those statistics correctly, or not appealing to whatever their userbase is

I use Adguard and Vivladi.

You can also switch in built in adblocker in Vivaldi. There's no reason to use Firefox.

In AdGuard, you can add "extensions" that extend the functionality of the browser. Its simple. For example, playing youtube in background or bypassing paywalls. Extensions are little javascripts.
Suicide is offensive to society and many individuals on a deep level, especially of people who do not have a "good reason" (such as a terminal illness). While it may have progressed beyond being a criminal act, it is still taboo enough for alternative and equally good avenues to exist for society to deal with it, in this case, police and physicians empowered by law with the "duty of care" concept. This is of course better than suicidal intentions being dealt with as criminal, but not as good (in my opinion) as it being dealt with as something that someone has a right to do and therefore cannot have force used against them, but perhaps should be dissuaded from, maybe similarly to abortion.

Well, blender itself is a whole world. But you can export to threejs and those are the only two tools you'll need at the very least.

I'm not quite sure why you consider this "user error"? I work on the optimizer a bit, and I wouldn't say it's a fault of the user ...

OTOH I'm not sure it's a fault of the DB either :-( The statistics collected by ANALYZE are pretty much a lossy compressed version of the database, and so some details are missing - that's kinda the point of collecting the stats.

I'm not sure why lowering the autoanalyze threshold would fix this - it increases the frequency of stats updates, so my feeling is it makes it more likely to trigger similar issue. OTOH increasing the statistics target seems like the right thing to do (although it also keeps more accurate stats, not just increase the sample size).

I don't know if there are better solutions (both practical and in principle) :-(

Unfortunately, there isn't a ubiquitous enough system for a lot of messages that should be secure. Like password reset links, financial and medical documents, vulnerability disclosures, etc.

Besides the fact that no encrypted messaging system is sufficiently ubiquitous, Signal is not a great fit for these things because it is tied to a phone number (what would be the equivalent of security@mycompany.example? What if you don't want to give out your phone number, or your phone number changes?) And it is optimized for mobile messaging, and while there is a desktop app it isn't a great experience, and Signal strongly discourages third party clients.

And I do love Signal, I just don't think it can really fully replace email. And I don't know of anything else that is well positioned to do so either, though I would love to learn of something.
Earlier in the week there was threads about how AWS will never implement resource blocking like you're talking about because big companies don't want to be shut off in the middle of a spike of traffic, and small companies don't pay enough money, and it's not like it hurts Amazon's bottom line

honestly I would love social networks that was just that but as it is now i actively avoid most social media outside of small niche communities (certain subreddits that relate to fairly narrow interest fan communities for a couple of authors that sort of thing [i don't fallow any default subs], hacker news, and a couple of small discord servers for open source projects and small podcasts)

but everything for talking to friends and family and keeping up on there lives is either been turned into a politically toxic battleground or monetized into unusability.
For the people who answer "yes", this is the same as asking if you would let a builder that doesn't believe that asbestos is dangerous to build your house. Professionals that go by beliefs when the facts are readily available are not behaving like professionals.

I think it’s a pretty great idea for people to “have kids, raise them right.”

I’m bullish on that strategy, even if there is no contractual guarantee that those kids will return the favor.
The Verge and the rest of the media was incorrect, because the injunction goes with a 185-page ruling the media didn’t read that explained it in greater detail how to interpret the injunction.

You cannot use your own IAP system. You can link to a webpage, but Apple is still entitled to the 30% cut and can bill the developer after the fact each month or so for the commission that would have been paid.

And for this reason, Epic owes 30% of their unpaid iOS IAP revenue to Apple (about $4 million) for breach of contract and Apple does not need to let Fortnite back on the store.

Epic won almost nothing. 9/10 counts lost, and the remaining count they won still owes 30% but it would be collected through a different method. Super shallow victory that.
You can't promote certain content to the front without demoting other content downward.

The algorithmic filtering/ordering of items in a feed is really just censorship of the items that don't benefit Facebook/Instagram/Twitter/YouTube.

These tools serve their owners, not the society they ostensibly serve to connect.

It's censorship on a huge scale, and it's terribly damaging.
Samantha considering the prospect of being monitored for violations by OpenAI
Speaking from experience, people are not nearly as enthusiastic to make the decision to kill themselves (as dementia sets in) as every likes to imagine that they will be themselves. I have seen multiple cases of people who - in healthy middle age - made bold statements ("just shoot me when I get like that"), who later went on to write documents insisting that "all measures be taken to preserve my life". So not even "just let me die peacefully when it's my time", much less "load me up on opiates and finish me off in a month when I don't know who/where I am anymore".

I don't know why this is, but dementia is often a continuum, and the decision making that people make seems to change in early dementia.

Unless you are proposing that others get to make this executive decision that people with dementias lives aren't worth living, this solution is not practical.

More practical would be to accept that we are far better off over-medicating with pain meds to "keep people comfortable" with the implicit idea that it will shorten their lives. Everyone can pretend we're doing it for pain. Effectively it's like what you said but with some face-saving bullshit where no-one has to admit we're killing grandpa/grandma over the course of a few months. I'd much rather a few months on opiates at the end of my life than a few years on Haldol (JFC). Ugh.
Of course, but I am asking about an "interface" that can attach to body [surgically] and use the energy stored in fat cells. Like a constant "power leak" - the primary concern would be weight loss, with the side-effect of being able to use that power for something useful.
This doesn't seem crazy to me. The idea that Apple collects developer fees via the payment flow is merely a convenience vs. direct billing. If developers are using a different payment flow, then Apple has a right to collect those platform fees in a different way. What is crazy to me is that people believe those 15/30% cuts that Apple takes are for usage of the IAP system. IAP is a mere small part of that.
Are you sure you're talking about Firefox? For example it doesn't even have pull to refresh so you can't trigger it unintentionally :)

I use it all the time now because it supports uBlock Origin and Dark Reader and I think it's good. And I have all my bookmarks on Firefox sync. I have some minor issues with it like the tab list that doesn't always scroll right but they're not deal-breakers.
That's doable on 1440p, but IMO it's a dealbreaker on 4k.

I think it’s the same reason that developers in SF make more then their counterparts in say Denver. It’s purely supply and demand and labor doesn’t markets are inefficient (especially geographically)

If I had to guess there are probably 10x the tech workers in California than in the UK, which drives the bulk of the disparity.
You're getting downvoted because you're victim blaming; a newbie shouldn't have to master anything to avoid a surprise bill.
There are some big problems with mathematical notation.

The first is that it is terse--often excessively so. The clearest way this manifests is the sheer predilection for single-variable names. Every variable in every equation invariably gets reduced down to a single letter, and sometimes you need to go so far as distinguishing based on font face or boldness or what random diacritic you can throw on that variable name to keep it a single-letter variable name. Even when it doesn't reach that extreme of an issue, it makes skimming difficult, because you now have to go back through the prose to figure out what 'H' means, and spotting the definition of a single-letter variable in prose is really easy, right? (No, no it is not).

Another factor that can make it infuriating to read mathematical notation is the sheer overloading. Subscript notation is a good one for this--if you see a single letter subscripted by something else, it could mean either getting a particular entry in a sequence of entries, it could be an index into a vector or a matrix or a tensor (and are you getting a row or a column or whatnot? all of the above!), maybe it might be a derivative. Or maybe it's an elaboration of which of the possible terms that get summarized to that letter is actually being referred to (e.g., E_a for activation energy).

Of course, the flip side of the notation problem is the fact that some concepts have multiple different notations. Multiplication is a common example: to multiply a and b, you can use a × b, a · b, or screw any symbol altogether and just say ab (thus a(b) is also a way to indicate multiplication, which totally has no potential confusion with applying a function [1]). Differentiation is the worst; virtually every introduction to derivatives starts with "oh there's multiple notations for this"--is it really necessary that so many need to exist?

[1] There was one paper I once read where I literally had to spend several minutes staring at a key formula trying to figure it if I was looking at function application or multiplication.

Wow, really?

Why is it standard practice to pad these things with useless statements that waste the time of thousands of people? It's disrespectful to your reader to squander their time.
wonderful remark.

i have this nagging feeling that nothing good ever comes out when there is a large group of people involved. and that the most successful communities, teams or groups are small. i have seen small communities ruined when they got big or niche communities wrecked when they went mainstream. time and again. but we keep pushing for larger groups, larger teams, more networking, more friends, etc...

I just set the input language to French and let autocorrect add the accents, 99% of the time, it gets it right as there are not that many words where the accents change a word into a completely different word. The only one I can think of is marche as in walking vs marché as in a market.

Study economics. Tesla owners in New Mexico acted in our own self-interest. We pushed and pushed and leaned hard on Tesla, the legislature, the dealers, for six years, so WE would have a nearby in-state service center so we wouldn't have to drive 400 miles and spend a lot of money on hotels and eating out while our cars were fixed in Phoenix, El Paso, or Denver. Now, please run along and get back to your antivax freedumb rally and I'll keep being a sheeple.

How is that related to toxins? Is coffee also removing toxins because it helps me think more clearly in the morning? Is complaining about public transport to a friend also removing toxins because it makes me feel better?

> Saying that something is not affirmed by science is not equivalent to saying it is denied by science.

Thankfully science has given us tools to base our conclusions on more than our fallible subjective impressions and whimsical correlations. "It seems to help, must be that we're removing something bad" is how you get bloodletting.
I would definitely expect to read such an exposé and certainly there would be cases of people pressured into assisted suicide who otherwise would not want it. There is no good solution to this issue, in my mind. Some measures could be taken to prevent undue coercion like criminalizing those who did it but I'm not sure how it would work exactly.

Personally I think I would prefer euthanasia if I knew I was developing dementia and likely to end up in a care home similar to the one described in the article, or even one much better than that, so perhaps selfishly I would prefer a society where such is legal even though there would end up being abuses like you describe.

IMO its a problem that we try to keep everyone alive at all costs disregarding quality of life. I would much prefer to just die before becoming incapable of basic tasks and being kept artificially alive.
Isn't that how Epic essentially did it when they server side added their own payment option in the Fortnite app? That is what led to them being removed.
My read is that the sensitive area of the reactor is a lot smaller than the plane, so only part of the energy of the plane would hit it, the rest would go into the ground around it or whatever else the plane hits.
Well, what exactly would you expect for better visibility into the planner? I mean, you have the source code, and I'm not sure how to visualize the extreme number of combinations considered by the planner. Any examples of databases doing interesting things?

As for the "locking" of plans, I personally have rather serious doubts about that. Yes, I've heard it suggested as a viable solution, but knowing how vastly different plans may be "right" for the same query with just slightly different parameters ...

You mainly need to know some javascript library for importing the models that were exported from Blender. Three.js is, afaik, the most popular. I've used it myself because it was the first thing I found.

If you want to use TypeScript, and you have time on your hands, maybe look at Babylon.js and compare it to Three.js.

Yes, it's unfortunate. The taboos (cultural or otherwise) and personal hang ups that people have surrounding death and dying prevent people from acting before it's too late. Ideally very-old-age/death planning would become as normal and culturally acceptable as planning your retirement and pension. The former is absolutely certain to happen but people will give almost all their thought to the latter.
