I wouldn't put those in the same category.

Automatic facial recognition is a huge and invasive change to the level of tracking that's possible.

Being followed 1:1 is not.

Going near public areas should not be consent for everyone in the world to be tracked as if a squad of paparazzi is following them.
To add some figures:

“For example, one study using data collected between June-July 2020 found that the most common reasons New Zealanders would be vaccinated were to protect themselves (62%) and their family (62%), to avoid getting seriously ill (52%), and to feel safe around other people (51%). People were less likely to report they would get the vaccine because their doctor recommended it (23%).”

I found it interesting that the author was making a case for 2-3 people for someone inexperienced. I've seen people claim that you need to give someone new to leadership a team of 4-5 people because it is so easy to drop into micro-managing if you only have a couple reports.

I took on a lead role earlier this year and unless the 3 people on the team were all inexperienced or I had enough other things to work on, I don't think it would be enough. I do feel like my balance of attention is better with a couple more relatively autonomous people involved.

My problem with informational videos on YouTube is that the majority of what I see in search results is ten minutes or less, often like two-three minutes. So if I want somewhat more information than ‘I wonder what is that thing anyway’, I pretty much can't get that on YouTube. Like, I'd expect thirty minutes to an hour to be a reasonable length for explaining a topic superficially but in more depth than a dictionary entry.

Compare that to the three-part introduction to sound synthesis from the 80s where the dude twiddles knobs for three hours and explains what each of them is doing. Just dialing in one sound takes him ten minutes. It's the best educational video I've seen on YT: https://youtu.be/atvtBE6t48M

I didn't mean to suggest that the Wikipedia article covered the standard practice of people groups at that time, but the Old Testament (not to mention the past 2000 years) is full of examples of nations attempting to exterminate the Jewish people.

To give just a couple of examples, there is the case of Pharaoh ordering the killing of all male children at the start of Exodus[0], and in Esther chapter 3 we see that the antagonist Haman's plan was "to destroy all the Jews who were throughout the whole kingdom of Ahasuerus".[1]

Anyway, I don't think Christians should dismiss aspects of the Bible that are culturally difficult, but there are principles for applying its contents to modern situations. The relevant principle here would be that the Ten Commandments are to be generally followed at all times, but God may choose to give specific instructions for specific situations which override those commandments. Reassuringly, it wasn't up to Moses to decide whether or not to attack the Midianites, as he was given that as a direct instruction, in his capacity as the political leader of the Israelites.

https://trac.transmissionbt.com/browser/branches for pre-2016

https://github.com/transmissionbt from 2016

When we untar the source, the "Changelog" file is empty

diff -U0 -r transmission-2.94 transmission-3.00|less

Look for compelling reasons to update

When statically compiled 2.94, stripped binaries were 3.4M; not too bad

Still had to make fixes by hand to get it to compile with musl. These were reported by a musl user on Github years ago. Oh well

Need to include bsdqueue.h instead of sys/queue.h in these two files

Needed to fix some libcurl problem in libtransmission/web.c, too

https://trac.transmissionbt.com/ticket/5580

The need for web.c is debatable; "webseed" is not peer-to-peer, who even uses it

Yea makes me so sad. When I still did computer repair the number of genuinely nice people being scammed in one way or another was depressingly high.

Unfortunately some cannot be helped as they just want to feel like they are helping/connecting with someone.

Sometimes, I swear the people I'd be helping knew they just didn't care, they were that desperate for human interaction.

It's a tale as old as time. I remember spending far too many hours as a kid convincing my grandmother not to send various people/fake businesses money (you owe the IRS! You power is going to be shut off!) and trying to curb her purchasing on QVC (I ended up later having a roommate who worked for them - the horror stories I could tell!).
Interestingly, if you ignore air drag for cars, the equation is basically the same. Lift to drag is just the reciprocal of rolling resistance. But yeah, that does change the answer a bit. One possible solution is to stage off some of the battery mass.

I don't disagree that Atlassian programs are generally bloated, but it is interesting to see everyone jumping at JIRA when its Confluence with the CVE...

JIRA is too many things to too many people - in the quest to be everyone's bug tracker, they wrote (badly) in the whole kitchen sink. This is a general issue with most software, though. Especially big software.

You cannot have complex capable software that is also simple. That's an oxymoron. You can have complex software which works, but it is difficult to get there, and keep it there. There is simply too much that can go wrong that over time, it almost must go wrong.

Keeping everything 'simple' is not an alternative - the world is complex and so even a bunch of simple things, when put together, make something complex. Think unix shell scripts which can be so much sphagetti. The unix philosophy is to keep things simple, and yet ignoring the complexity leads to its own complexity.

That's the real 'terrible engineeing practices' which get down Atlassian and everyone else's programs.

Someone said 'use paper' or 'quit and become a llamma herder' - these seem simple but again, paper burns, shepherds get shot or held up by drug gangs.

All to say, I don't think JIRA is actually that bad. There could be worse products, there could be better. But it would exceedingly difficult to make something simple which also served everybody.
> And since it's a new/fake religion, their beliefs are a blank slate which can be adapted to whichever liberty or situation presents itself.

Perhaps, but that's not necessary here. Making decisions for yourself is a huge part of Satanism.
There's just one more step; the market's value is an expectation of the future while the GDP is a 'now' metric. So while inflation is auto-adjusted (roughly) in the past, a strong expectation of inflation now can send the market cap up (and either GDP will catch up, be it natural or on inflated dollar terms) or the market will crash, or some combination of the two to bring the indicator back to earth.

Sorry, but these models have unexplainable failure modes.

You can ask a 5 yo "why you did this", in fact they will go and ask this penetrating question all the time.

The ML mentioned here will spew garbage if asked that question, or is completely unable to do so. Putting something like that anywhere in a decision framework is dangerous in the extreme.

I would not call something that requires thousands of teaching examples effective.
> So the car is supposed to slide when you pull the handbrake?

Yes, that's what will happen if you brake the rear wheels (what the handbrake does) in a turn.

The point isn't that you'd ever do that, of course, but to simulate the rear end of the car sliding which can happen if you hit ice, oil or even uneven water patches. Can you control that slide? It's really awesome if Denmark is including car control in the test. The US should do the same.

I strongly encourage you (everyone) to find a car control clinic in your area and participate. Even a single weekend will raise your car control skills significantly if you've never had any instruction before.

Newer cars have a lot of traction control magic that try to save you and often do, but there's still no substitute for the driver having skills as well.

Sure the DMV manual will tell you to steer into the skid, but there's no way to learn this muscle memory without practice and the most productive practice is with a good instructor.

(I used to instruct the BMW club car control clinics (open to all cars) before life got too busy, hopefully will take it up again in the future.)

OP said this was in Denmark, so presumably every little thing isn't a "gold rush for lawyers" unlike in the USA.

There are actually some really good YouTubers on some really niche topics. For instance I've found Rahul Nath's videos on Azure Pipelines to be exceptionally helpful: https://www.youtube.com/user/rahulnathp

Have you tried searching for content specific to the niche you're interested in? Chances are if it's a topic that's popular on StackOverflow and that's also visual in nature, there's a good Youtube video explaining it. If it's not visual in nature, the probability of your finding a good video decreases because video is likely not the best medium for conveying that information, which decreases the view potential and the incentive to monetize.
Today, I would accept any Biden speech where he could actually read the teleprompter. Bonus would be answering a couple impromptu questions afterwards.

World leaders have said after meeting him that they couldn't understand a word he said.

(For those in the MSM bubble, Biden is suffering from moderate senility/cognitive decline, as reported since 2012. Word is that White House staffers mute TVs when he's speaking to avoid being embarrassed by their leader.

Brezhnev was also senile for the last decade of his USSR presidency, but that was to maintain party stability and was approved by several senior leaders, including Gromyko.)
Why isn’t a natural infection treated as equivalent to a vaccine? The CDC’s own slide deck for Delta (https://www.documentcloud.org/documents/21026654-57c98604-3b...) acknowledges that a natural immunity of 35% would push R0 for Delta below 1 even with no masking at present vaccination rates.

> The phrase by most Christian churches is somewhat misleading.

As someone else pointed out, I'm not talking about every individual church as a separate 'Christian church', I'm referring to the primary denominations, so Catholocism and Eastern Orthodox would be two churches. Most of the rest do not accept those books as part of the Bible canon.

> And I don't agree that the reasons you give are valid – in some places I think you have the facts wrong, or are presenting them in a biased way.

When it comes to religion, every view is biased. But that's ok if a view is correct. I'm looking at the facts based on what happened prior to all the offshoots of Christianity (including Catholicism, which didn't even exist until at least 300 years after Christ).

The purely historical argument, outside of any denomination makes it clear that the Deuterocanonical books were not considered part of the Bible canon.

> I don't think this site is the best place to debate it in detail,

I think it's fine if we remain civil.

> but you can find numerous works by Catholic and Orthodox writers rebutting the arguments you make.

They are just as biased as I am. But like I said, I'm not looking at any denominational argument, I'm only looking at the facts of history prior to ~300 CE.
100+ employees for 1200 customers. So every customer needs to pay at least 0.1 developers on average to break even. Doesn't look sustainable. So we should expect to see more changes of terms over time. Like we have seen it from others with free offers, e.g. Qt in the past, Redis or gitlab somewhat more recently. Not saying that those have become bad, just no longer as free (either speech or beer) as they once started.

Not just that, but anything that is persistent in the environment and readily absorbable fits the bill.

It so happens that BPA and pthalates as part of the plastics made with these substances are persistent - they contain a high total and release the dosage extremely slowly into the environment.

A good example for that is also a slow toxic spill (of e.g. azo dyes) from a factory giving many bladder cancer. (See Pakistan.) The release is persistent due to persistent manufacture of clothing using the toxic substance.

Chronic exposures have a way of overwhelming or slipping by our internal detoxification - even though single dosage may be low and substance might not bioaccumulate, the damage does or probabilities get skewed towards certainty.
Every single lecture I ever gave, at least after the first, incorporated self-plagiarism. Every single article I ever wrote. Every single comment on a discussion forum.

That is a fairly common reaction. But accepting discomfort, without aversion to it, is powerful.
Not OP, but I imagine it's something like "precision" vs. "how often correct." So you can be extremely precise quickly, but not all the time. Or you can be extremely precise all the time, but not in time to make good decisions. Et al.

Maybe inflation is not hitting these at the same pace?

The money supply has been increasing for already some time, but only now we are seeing inflation catching up for example on consumer prices.

For money supply to show in consumer/business side of GDP, money created by central bank need to be distributed. When interest rates have been low, maybe banks were hesitant to start pushing money to individuals and businesses and it instead ended up in stock market.

>Human biological impulses are the basis of all economic activity, and they are natural and immutable.

I think you may be missing my point here. For instance, what people need to subsist (food, shelter, water, etc.) is immutable. However, what is mutable is how we choose to distribute the resources that satisfy those subsistence "impulses".

>socially isolated meth heads are a dominant political and economic elite.

This essentially reduces my assertion to one of "nothing means anything". Of course, that's not what I'm arguing.

>How many of the slaves developed new agricultural technology...

You said farmers wouldn't seek to optimize if the state seized all of their output (i.e. removed their incentive). I countered that they absolutely would if forced to do so with the threat of death or brutality (i.e. this certainly motivated slaves).

My point was that we choose the incentives. Your farmer example is just the product of such a mutable choice. In general, you're emphasizing the value of an "optimized economy" per our current economic system. So, again, your argument begs the question.

But, the benefits of productivity optimizations generally accrue disproportionately to profit-takers, because that's what we've selected. Irrespective of your opinion of that decision, the point is that we could've equally as well optimized for general welfare, lesser productivity, and a more even distribution.

Would some be upset about a sudden shift to such an economy? Of course, because they will be relative net-losers. But that doesn't represent some immutable law which precludes it.

As I pointed out in response to another reply in this sub-thread:

> [Self-plagiarism] doesn't mean "I use the same turn of phrase every once in a while". It means "I reproduced substantial portions of prior research or other text of my own and passed it off as new research."

The term is not used to mean occasional repetition of phrases or concepts, nor does it apply when that expectation is not the production of new research (e.g. when delivering a course lecture). The term is used to mean something more along the lines of when you take a paper you published some time ago, make a few edits, and re-submit it to another journal.
