I really struggle to know what to write - sometimes I feel like writing loads but don't know what about other times I don't want to write but I know it helps me! I used to keep a list of prompts in evernote but it got really long so recently I dumped them all on https://www.journalprompts.co.uk/ its a WIP but just being able to filter my list easily is a god send!

FDR’s New Deal certainly helped a lot of poor people in the USA, as did the roll out of the welfare state and NHS in the UK, and pensions in Germany.

That said, government intervention is not sufficient. It must come with structural improvements, and not just be free handouts. And too much help can also be counter-productive by crowding out the very thing it’s trying to nurture.
The bug reporter merely copies the incorrect error that gitlab gave him; The issue here is that someone working in login / security of gitlab doesn't know what a mime type is. That is extremely worrying - it's not a part of the code where you can afford to be sloppy.

It's a very odd error. Apparently .nro is a file extension used by the Nintendo Switch video game console; .o is obviously the output of compilers, so I'm not sure why my username wasn't rejected. Maybe it would be if I tried to register now.
Yeah, my understanding is that they are in public places. And even then not in segregated that is where there are only women present. Or homes.
I’d say the same of companies - the same role at two similar companies can be drastically different pay and there’s usually a good reason (which the candidate won’t know) - culture, complexity, bureaucracy, hours, workload, etc.
Yeah that's why the constitution gives your rights 'except when some burocrates think you are a terrorist or related to a terrorist.
> If you want to see what throws "FooException"

That's a completely different problem, and one that is not unique to errors or exceptions. For any polymorphic type where you want to handle different variants differently, you need to know the possible variants, and this information is, by definition, not present in the code sending the polymorphic value. This is true whether you want to handle exceptions in C++, Optional t in Haskell, or interface values in Go.

> Because of this, bubbling up raw exceptions out of deeply nested functions is generally a code smell, because by the time they get to the top level of even a module, all you know is "it broke". Unless you did the donkey work of wrapping the raw exception in something with more semantic context.

Wrapping up exceptions at every function is a huge code smell. You sometimes want some level of wrapping, especially around module boundaries or in functions with highly relevant context along the way, but generally most functions along a call stack don't have anything to add to a lower level exception - especially if the lower-level library is well made. For example, fs.PathError in Go and System.IO.FileNotFoundException in C# include a way to programatically find the name of the file that was not found, so even if thrown from a low level, a higher level still has the most relevant context available without wrapping. In contrast, java.io.FileNotFoundException does not include this information unless you parse the error string, so you would have a reason to wrap it with more relevant context.
> and it was also at a time when 4chan was more of an anonymous meme board and less of a pedo/nazi aggregator.

I will have to disagree here. The amount of illegal pedo content has dramatically decreased over the years. You would see people spamming it all the time around ~2008-2013 in /b/, while nowadays it is much more likely that you will see such content while browsing facebook.

As for nazi content, there are a lot more things that are considered nazi these days that were common back (such as calling people slurs as a generic insult), although since around the time of gamergate the amount of unironic actual nazis skyrocketed (as part of a wider social radicalization) and they stopped being shamed as much when posting in unrelated boards.

> Also, depending on your understanding of what a megacorp is, Epik may very well qualify.

I think that this is stretching the definition. I believe that most people would consider something of the size and reach of cokecola and mcdonalds as megacorps.
> What guarantees that this continues to be true? Yes coins that can't be sold are worthless, but coins that can only be sold with KYC aren't.

This applies to PoW coins too. Miners can't be anonymous if they want to sell their coins. Why would anybody mine for nothing?

> The staking providers or delegatees are the (potential) oligopolies

Yes, and miners mine in pools. Why are you not considering pools as (potential) oligopolies? What is the difference?

> Those are also anonymous and, if not completely portable, fungible with general electronic manufacturing equipment that's widely possessed.

They need physical locations with people physically present with physical inputs and outputs. The idea that it is easier for miners and hardware manufacturers to be anonymous than a guy spinning some software on some server is... stupid. To think that it is easier for miners and hardware producers to change location than a guy moving private keys from one server to another is just... retarded.

> Which supports my point - the capability to exclude a nation state also allows the staking cabals to exclude people they don't like.

I've asked you already how would a staking cabal exclude people they don't like and for some reason you are not answering that question. I'm guessing you are avoiding it because your answer, as all you've written so far in this thread, also applies to mining cabals.

> Given that a staking cabal by its very nature controls the chain, they can stop other people getting or making coins. But a mining cabal can't stop other people getting or making mining equipment.

No they can't make them stop making mining equipment, why do you think that that is relevant? The mining cabal can produce their own hardware and prevent anybody using any different hardware from joining the network, could they not?

Can you please try to clearly answer the original question. What makes mining oligopolies better than staking oligopolies? If you are sticking with your answer that it is harder to create mining oligopolies then please explain how? And before you press reply could you please stop for a minute and thing how what you wrote is applicable to mining oligopolies and not to staking oligopolies or vice versa.
Nice idea, clean and fast (minimal) page, good overall execution, excellent pricing model (hope it covers their running costs) but I see a small problem with moderation and people abusing this service to post inappropriate material.
It’s a hard problem. Here’s a wikipedia article about it:

> The kings and queeens have turned into the captailists and relgious zealots who espouse ideals of productivity and growth [...]

Advocatus Diaboli here. One has to be careful not to forget benefits of the hard work over millenia which we all enjoy: shelter, electricity, food in the fridge, medicine in the cabinet, transportation right outside of the house we live in. Countless people worked hard to get to this point. So the question is: is our society evolved enough to stop working hard and still enjoy these benefits?

Firstly these "fact check" websites, including Reuters have become a joke.

They clearly have an agenda and many also have conflicts of interest.

They pretend that just because they call themselves "fact checkers" it automatically makes everything they say true. They have nameless faceless self-proclaimed "experts" that often make a straw man and "fact check" the straw man as false and call it a day.

And a naive person just googles a few keywords, sees the - usually first link - "Fact-check: that thing you were told is totally wrong" article and thinks "Hah! Fact checkers say it's false! Debunked misinformation again!"

Big pharma has billions of dollars of interests to protect. The average so called "anti vax" person has nothing to gain or lose from whether other people do or don't take a vaccine. So a rational person should not so easily accept the commercial propaganda pushed by these companies.

Secondly health care professionals submit the report when they have reason to believe that it is a "vaccine adverse event". Otherwise the "event" is not relevant, the person will not even consider or bother to make the report to begin with.

"even if it is unclear whether the vaccine was the cause" part is a technicality because yes at the time they are submitting it "is not clear" if vaccine is indeed the cause and it is to be investigated.

They will then contact the person that submitted it and if it's a valid report they will assign a permanent number to the report.

There are many obstacles to submitting the report. And since it is voluntary it is under counting.

In Australia 9 deaths are officially accepted as vaccine-related. Again unlike with covid they do anything they can to keep this number low. It is a minimum.

I don't claim to know what the actual number is but it absolutely positively is not ZERO.
Could you share something damning instead of referring people to search, as we probably will find different information.

As far as I can tell, Epik focused on hosting and DNS management for marginalized/excluded groups on the internet, so naturally they attract a lot of groups. Not sure why that'd be bad though.

Things like this also makes me actually like the company more:

> Pharmaceutical watchdog website LegitScript reported in 2018 that they had alerted Epik to the sale of illegal drugs and counterfeit medications on websites registered by Epik, and that Epik had refused to act upon the information without a court order

That's exactly how I want my hosting company to act, and any that don't are actively fragile.

From https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epik_(company)
I didn't say it was psychologically any easier than it is psychologically easy for someone who does not want to get a vaccine to be forced to take one.

But the mechanism is perfectly simple and easy, easier than going out to get vaccines.

So just mandate and force them not to eat as much, and ban them from civil society if they fail their weigh ins.
Punctuation has a braking effect on the reader.

They aren't that far off. 4chan was always about counter culture.
>If a quote is incomplete and a meaningful part is omitted there are other typographical conventions to indicate that, like a double period .. for example

Yes, but what I'm talking about is the reverse situation. How would you know whether or not the quoting (outer) sentence is complete? You cannot logically infer that from the quoted (inner) sentence, which is why I'm saying that the second period is not redudant.
What would be the proper punctuation if you rearranged the sentence slightly?

Dr Johnson kicked a large rock and said, “I refute it thus.”, as his foot rebounded.

Is the period redundant? Or the comma after it? None of them? This looks almost as ugly as two periods.
Slightly off-topic, but I've noticed that the ToS is based on http://wordpress.com/tos which is licensed under CC. I wonder if it's safe to use and anyone else uses it with "success".

The 'ill or obese' analogy isn't very good because it doesn't capture the contagious effects, which is the artifact of COVID that makes it different than other health and safety issues.

We don't stop people from going to the theatre because they have diabetes or cancer.

COVID is a highly contagious disease, that's what makes it a community problem, not an individual problem.

It's a more akin to having proper winter tires while driving: while it's mostly an issue of personal safety, there are other cars on the road who will mostly likely end up in an accident with you, and so there's an externalization there.

Now imagine if you got someone in an accident because you didn't have winter tires, and they also had some material degree of getting someone in an accident (i.e. if there is an R0 > 1, they will likely also crash with someone). Then the whole highways is jammed up, and everyone is affected.

It's the contagion that makes it a problem.
I completely agree, although I don't really see too many "high IQ" comments here.
Never heard of it, can’t really imagine how that would work out in other countries.

Is it a somewhat new regulation? Is it easy to access the information?
Replies and downvotes mark a strong disagreement. So okay, my interpretation is not mainstream, but I still think it's a possible interpretation.

The difference in interpretation comes from the nature of "features": are they actions or verifications? A verification is (usually) idempotent / has no consequence on the state of the world, but an action isn't.

I read the lines as "takes $x from your pocket".
Is being anti-fascist a bad thing now? Wasn't there a bloody war fought over that?

I thought the default was to be against fascism? It's the kind of thing where you approve of it if you're not explicitly against it.

Also, are you implying Epik is fascist? I mean you're not wrong.
I feel that computer science is really the wrong word.

It's like calling astronomy "telescopy", to paraphrase Dijkstra.

I used to love to write. That all ended in college, with English Instructors. I wasen't the only student either.

There was so much emphasis on grammar, interesting writers just seemed to sound all alike. I enjoyed some of the papers that were read aloud the first few weeks. By the end of the courses, the papers were technically correct, but boring, and lacked imagination. I could see the enthusiasm drain from the students faces with every paper covered in red Sharpie corrections.

I had one teacher that used to down grade me for not writing out numbers 1-10, and only using numbers for 11 on. I still don't know what's right, or care anymore.

(I believe S & W recommends writing out 1-10.)
Unlike periods and commas, putting question marks and exclamation marks inside the quotation when they are not part of the quote is against AP, APA, Chicago, and MLA style specifications... Granted, I don't know if technical writing typically adheres to some other style, but shoving a question mark inside a quote it isn't part of is definitely not typical of American styles in general.
Idk I can somewhat see their reasons. Forked Android isn't necessarily secure: a customer who owns the phone might get hacked or suffer some problem and who will they blame? Not Samsung or Xiaomi etc. They'll blame Google.

If you're signed into Google etc on your phone and that is compromised, it appears to the average person that Google messed up.

Because there isn't a lot in the way of "prototyping" necessary. We already know how to effectively monitor patients. A lot of the shitty parts are actually in software and licensing and process - not hardware.

If you "prototype" for raspi, you will have to completely start from scratch if you want to manufacture reliable devices later on. It's not like porting a program from one system to another.
I guess that's what XML namespaces were supposed to allow.

Reality seemed to involve eldritch abominations like one system I encountered that had entire Base64 encoded XML documents embedded as attribute values in a higher level document and then this approach applied recursively....

Edit: Of course, this wasn't XMLs fault - but for some reason a lot of XML used in the "enterprise" world seemed to be primarily designed to eat the soul of whoever gazed upon it.
Correct me if I am wrong. I think all current Windows Laptop are trackpad with physical clicks.

Apple's Trackpad has been using Force Touch ( haptic engine ) since 2015. But I remember correctly my MacBook Air trackpad before Force Touch were excellent too.

It is one of those things where people "thinks" they are doing comparison when they are not. You often see enthusiast and nerds doing so called spec comparison. When in reality they missed out so many things. Better Keyboard, Better Trackpad etc.

The PC / Hardware industry has been operating at negative margin, with their source of profits coming from hardware branding rebate, software preinstalled, Data collection and selling etc. It was only the recent years did Gaming / E-Sports gave them another market to play with. And no one seems to enough incentives or resources to being a much better trackpad. That is why Microsoft had to step in and make their own Surface Line. Without some sort of quality assurance, the market will always be a race to the bottom.
I'm curious, in what way do you consider Macbook touchpad so much better? I have a Macbook pro, a dell, a Thinkpad, and I honestly can't tell which one I like better, they all work perfectly fine.
Oh, it sounds quite impressive. I want my project to achieve major advances as well, even though it's not really similar to fusion energy. Because of that, I decided to use the safety meeting checklist from https://fluix.io/safety-toolbox-talk-workflow , and I hope it'll be beneficial for my employees because I think the problem is in lack of their knowledge.
Issue is not the existence of the management agent, but the fact that it seems it’s an abysmal codebase.

> Freebsd has capsicum which, like seccomp (mentioned else-thread) is much more complex and flexible.

Capsicum may be more flexible in some ways, but it's also less flexible in others.

After you a process entera capsicum mode, it can't open new sockets, except by accepting on an existing listen socket or by receiving them on a unix socket, sent by a cooperating non-capsicum process. This means you can't capsicum a TLS proxy like hitch, which would be a great thing to capsicum since the operation is pretty simple and OpenSSL is scary.
Finally someone who agrees with me. Don’t want the double punctuation? Write a simpler sentence.

The question whether milk is beneficial for humans is far more complicated than you suggest. The only thing we know for sure is that consuming milk is not the net positive that it has been portrayed to be.

It's most likely a net zero [1] with a number of positive benefits that you describe, in particular for infants. There are however a number of risks as well, in particular when you define milk as the product that you can buy in an American/European supermarket or if you look at dairy products more generally. And that's not taking into consideration that the majority of the world's population is lactose intolerant. Here is a link to get you started (don't take this source literally for reasons of bias but treat it as a starting point) [2].

I do not know if he did but we do know that cloudflare for example did, along with harassment groups like kiwifarms. Are they terrorist and harasser sympathizers?

It's funny because both Epik and Cloudflare used to host 8chan and the dailystormer. They are more similar than people think.
even Einstein also stood in the shoulders of giants

People have had that perched-on-giants feeling for some time:

Encoding logical statement into numbers is foundational, but I do see your point. I don't know of any evidence that says that Gödel was interested in automating computation through his encoding.

That being said, I view Gödel's addition to be so mind-blowing that I can't help but privately think of him as the founder.
The period before the quotation mark is redundant, because the quotation mark implies it (in this case).

Same. It is like matching brackets. Two sentence ends, one quoted and one quoting, so two full-stops. And like putting exclamation/question/interrobang/other marks in the right place depending on who is using them (quoter, quotee, or both).

Of course you can shorten your quote by one character and leave out the inner stop, and I'd say that was equally valid. I would tend to do that unless I want to make it absolutely clear that what I was quoting wasn't a run-on sentence that continued after that point.
Having an educational background in physics I find the Turing Machine a much more intuitive model of computation than say lambda calculus. To me this is Turing’s main contribution: linking the abstract world of computation to the physical world, and proving that a very simple physical machine can perform any computation (Turing completeness). That’s no small contribution.

It's less logical even than that. It's almost every word. On the NYT homepage right now, for example, one story is "Justice Dept. Asks Judge to Block Texas From Enforcing Abortion Law". So "From" is capitalised but "to" isn't.

Weirdly, scrolling down the page, the technology section appears to go its own way on capitalisation rules: "Apple's new iPhone 13 is better, but not by much." is followed by "Apple Issues Emergency Updates to Close a Spyware Flaw".
Well, my prediction turned out to be prescient in an opposite sort of way.
