So after a quick install, I think the problem is that Nyxt is an emacs-friendly browser that's trying to sell itself to Vim-friendly users? Most Vim keybindings are not available (":" for executing commands, "h,j,k,l", Escape, etc...)

Also, the configuration format doesn't make it particularly easy. I don't want to learn LISP so that I can set my proper keybindings. Granted, I'm not fan of the vim language itself but it's pretty easy to set config with it.
"Surrender your cash & no investigation" is pretty plainly an extra-legal demand -- a civil asset forfeiture process was the threat in that discussion! The officer's preferred option was that the money was seized without any investigation, without any process at all, via the victim "voluntarily" surrendering it.

I don't care who was planning to pocket the money, specifically. The end beneficiary is not the primary problem in this clusterfuck. The fact that officers and departments, generally, can benefit from arbitrary harassment of citizens is the main problem. The final disposition of the stolen money is secondary.
That just sounds like poor cooperation between teams.
I’m sure there have been books or well researched blog posts you could dig up but here’s my best take:

Look at the influence and trajectory of Microsoft before and after the lawsuit. The executive team was distracted for a year. The employees were demoralized by bad press coverage. Competitors were emboldened. And for internet and mobile, Microsoft got put on the back foot before the 21st century even began.

Facebook management and board is full of people who observed and lived that experience. There is a case study of corporate distraction and they have read it.
I'm still on 68.11.0 on my android and android x86 devices. Even though it's outdated, it is by far the most functional as far as usability goes. A lot of addons will work with it (not all), just go to the base firefox addons page and request desktop site. The extensions are what made firefox great for power users, hobbling it was imho the wrong direction to pursue.

As somebody who also read the book, I recommend the book but totally agree. There are some interesting anecdotes in there but many are more interesting than persuasive. The book could have been half its length. I use checklists a lot and didn’t learn as much as I would have liked
Yeah, nobody wants presence features. I think it's especially annoying on Discord, because nobody cares which anonymous subset of 1000 users is currently sleeping or awake or has their screensaver going. Most of my friends type at me while they're "offline". Uh huh. (The reason is "I'm avoiding someone", which indicates that the feature is only for evil.)

Slack isn't as bothersome (it doesn't seem to try to detect "stepped away from the computer for 5 minutes", it's just "closed the app for the day" or "has the app open", which is better than Discord), but it's a feature that should totally go away.

Slack's "z" indicator for "outside of work hours" is fine. I will note the irony behind switching to Slack only to have Slackbot send them a "electronic mail" when they get back online ;) If only there was some other system that could send messages to users and have them read them when they feel like it.
I don't have a direct answer to your question, but I want to suggest a possible solution. I've been getting almost no spam for the last 10+ years even though I don't use any spam filtering (neither in my email client nor with my email service provider).

What I did was to switch from Gmail to a paid email provider. Then I started giving every single business a unique email alias, though my friends all get the same email alias. Currently I have 370 active aliases. I've had to disable only 20 aliases in the whole decade which works out to only about 5% of my contacts.

As I said, I use no spam filtering whatsoever, so I find it amazing that Gmail users with spam filtering have such a different experience.
Same as with gaming search, it’s possible that spammers are catching up with the Google smarts, and from this point it’s unclear how to proceed.
Serious question : I would like a person familiar with law to explain how is this not a bribe essentially? (Cos clearly it’s not treated like one. Where/what is the reasoning that invalidates my question )
Ok so the 40% efficiency and 2.5x reduction in electricity prices cancel each other out... we're still at electricity costs == energy in the jet fuel. No room for electrofuel plant capex or any other electrofuel plant opex. And to get those low electricity prices you have to only run your plant at 30% duty cycle when the sun is shining (3x capex).

How does capex and other opex fit in?
> I’ll still continue to use Azure

And this is the actual problem. Azure doesn't compete on quality. Microsoft rarely does. They have a few products and a market position that make them the default choice for countless customers. Nobody punishes them for their failings as long as the feature boxes keep being checked, and so the cycle continues.
This is a little experiment demonstrating the capabilities of the goscript project (https://github.com/oxfeeefeee/goscript) by compiling it to wasm.

Here's the source code (https://github.com/zackradisic/go-playground-wasm) if you would like to look at it and do something similar with your own projects.

I'm really excited for the future of goscript, Go is a great candidate for a scripting language thanks to its minimalistic design choices.
Azure is and will continue to creep into GitHub. Pretty sure my new projects will be on GitLab now just to get a headstart on using who the cutting edge service is a few years from now.

I had another coworker compare Clojure and Java tooling recently. I just don't think it's fair to compare one of the most used languages on the planet to one that is written in the other one. Clojure tooling isn't the best out of some ecosystems I've used, but you can leverage a whole bunch of the Java tools and I certainly have, like stack dump analyzers or profilers, or Maven, etc. Are they perfect for use with Clojure, not always, but things are pretty good IMHO. Cursive is an excellent IDE too, a joy to use with very many bells and whistles and there is also excellent Vim and Emacs support. There are at least 3 build tools that are Clojure-specific (Leiningen, Boot, and deps.edn), or you can integrate with older or other JVM tools pretty easily like Maven. There are multiple testing frameworks, multiple test formatters, and multiple test runners. I could go on, but what specifically do you think is missing or could be better?

You often can't sign the meaning, because the systems handling the request can reorder the bytes, and there are unbounded number of byte sequences mapping to a given meaning. That's the whole reason we have canonicalization.

Canonicalization is treacherous and generalist developers shouldn't freelance their own formats. Canonicalization problems are one of the reasons we're at SIGV4 and not just, like, SIG. But Amazon has at this point thought about this as carefully as any organization in the Internet.

Which is why it's good advice to, if you're going for a signed-request API, just shoplift SIGV4 from them.
Though it isn't an ideal solution (it's rather large and doesn't have DHT support), https://webtorrent.io supports torrents in browsers.
You could use a full fat client eg Thunderbird or Evolution, Outlook or whatever and use that to do some filtering through an IMAP connection. However that does rather negate the convenience.

You could also try another provider or DIY. Another option is something like Mimecast which you put in front of Gmail - https://www.mimecast.com/products/platform-selection/mimecas...

If you use a mass email provider, you get a rather generic experience. How on earth are Goog n co supposed to work out what you consider to be spam or UBE? I imagine that you get some basic filters (naughty words and a few IP deny lists) and a tokenizer n bayesian classifier that does the really hard work. Keep tagging the crap mail as spam and after a while it should learn, that for you: German - probably unwanted, Cyrillic - probably unwanted etc. Unfortunately you don't get to see under the hood/bonnet to understand what is actually going on.

I recommend that you stick with manually notifying spam for a while and see if that works - you need a lot of samples. If Goog allows you mark ham then use that too but I suspect they implicitly mark a mail as ham if you don't mark it as spam. When I say a lot of samples, I think you need at least 200 ham and 200 spam samples minimum, ideally 500 each and the more the better. Moving to another mass mail supplier will almost certainly not help.

How many of these things are fundamental limitations of plugins? (Besides the "can start native programs," of course; though I thought one of the Vim-keybinding-plugins had an optional native component that exposed an HTTP interface to allow that.)

I could imagine an extension that's modal and allows its own plugins to be written in JS and then loaded. This doesn't seem at all to be a fundamental limitation, just "Vimium et al aren't designed this way."

Similarly, couldn't an extension use Web Workers to do the intensive processing tasks without blocking rendering, with the only on-main-JS-thread actions being bridging the Web Workers to the DOM?

I guess extensibility is much easier with CLOS methods than with... however people write extensible programs in JavaScript. Prototype hackery? But one could again port CLOS methods to JS as a library, so that's not a fundamental limitation either, IMO. (Maybe the fundamental limitation is the JIT being able to optimize them? I think a normal method cache on the GF might work, though I'm unfamiliar with how JS engines optimize indirect calls in general.)
Happens with rotary dial combination padlocks, like those used for school or gym lockers. You don't go by the numeric code, let alone remember it. The things are only accurate to about 12 points around the dial anyway, so if you recovered the code from your muscle memory, it wouldn't match the original digit for digit.

Yes, this is the point:
When we train a neural network, especially on a classification problem, it has multiple avenues to solve the problem. We know they are capable of ineffectual memorization, as well as some other less ridiculous things. When we train, it's not clear what mix we're getting of 'neural hashing' vs learning abstracted features.

My point up above is that classification problems are too weak, exactly because these kinds of shortcuts are readily available. The leading edge of ML research is over-focused on ImageNet classification in particular.
I think OP's point is that say the company is "theirs" and earns $100M . Now the company pays, say, 25% corporate tax rate. So there is 75M to pay the owner. Owner takes it as income and now pays 25% tax, so they're left with 56M . Effective tax is ~44% at that point from the original $100M.

I argue with my friends that tax rate is less important than turn over rate. My spending is someone else's income, so with enough generations of spending/income all the money becomes 99.999% the government's.

Eg: I pay $1 to my friend, he pays 20c tax and keeps 80c. Then pays back to me 80c. I pay 16c tax and keep 64c. pay it again, 12.8c tax, keep 51.2 --> in 3 generations we're already at nearly 50% tax.
The trucking industry needs another 90,000 drivers to meet demand after Brexit made it harder for European workers to drive in Britain and the pandemic prevented new workers from qualifying.

In other words the trucking industry refuses to pay prevailing wages to truck drivers.
The market doesn't set the Fed Funds Rate, the Fed does. If we were simply talking about the other yield curves I would be on board with this argument. But the Fed is in total control. Why, if the Fed was seeing a recession coming, would they raise rates? How does that make sense?

>I appreciate a good whataboutism as the next guy

I fail to see how that's whataboutism. I'm not trying to justify one form of plastic packaging with another. I'm merely questioning how much stuff actually leeches out and how it compares to how much leeches out during normal consumption.

>plastic packaging is not used for longevity or higiene but to protect the product from mechanical actions and to prebundle items. The whole point of using paper-based packaging [...]

I'm not sure about you, but buying pre-packaged fruits from opaque bags does not sound very appealing to me.
I don't know how many students you deal with, or what their backgrounds are, but in my experience, absolutely the majority of students I deal with do not understand that the computer stores information in files, and those files can be in a hierarchical directory structure.

The article accurately reflects my experience.
And some of those attackers will just off at least one of the hostage anyways as an object lesson, as a way to "motivate" you.

That kind of dead-man-letter defense is a deterrent that relies on the attacker's ability to assess that the information can be destroyed, before going through the trouble of coming after you. If they are unable to assess it, or their intelligence is wrong, or you never let it wildly known that there is a dead-man-letter, once hostages are taken, you're still in that situation.

Even if you don't consider it as your moral responsibility, it won't bring dead people back to life. The cost is still the same. And if you survive, the trauma will still be there.
Imagine one cycle of a sine wave. Now approximate that sine wave using a step function.

The sine wave represents the variation in sunrise or sunset time throughout the year. (I don't think it is quite a sine wave, but close enough). The step function represents the offset from standard time of your clock.

The closer you are to the equator, the smaller the amplitude of the sine wave.

A permanent standard time system is saying "we should approximate the sine wave with a constant".

A permanent DST system is saying the same thing, except with a different constant.

A standard/DST switch-twice-a-year system is saying that we should use a step function that has one value for part of the year and a different value for the rest of the year.

The more steps you use the better you can approximate the sine wave (and since human circadian rhythms sync to sunrise, aligning our schedules to the sine waves is good for us biologically).

But the more steps you use the more hassle it is to deal with the times when the step function changes (you get a short disruption of your sleep schedule and the hassle of changing your clocks--although nowadays most clocks can change themselves).

Thus...you have a tradeoff to make. So far, we've only done one-valued and two-valued step functions.

An interesting possibility is to go to a much larger number of steps, such as 12 or 52 or even 365. With a large number of steps, the change from step to step would be small so no sleep schedule disruptions. With most clocks nowadays having processors they should be able to handle this.

The main problem with this is that it would effectively be getting rid of the 86400 second day. 9:00 one day would not be exactly 86400 seconds from 9:00 the next day. Every time you crossed a step there would be a deviation.

It’s quite likely that we do, in fact, lack free will.

To be honest, not even sure how free will would work in theory.

The government can (and probably will) step in to fill the energy gap by capping prices and doing back-end financial tricks to equalize the effect.

The Government has already stepped in to encourage the fertilizer factories to reopen (they shut because of the cost of gas) which means C02 will be back onstream, so the killing floor problem (C02 is used to stun animals before being slaughtered) is solved.

If you’re saying the feature is only OK as long as at least one major browser doesn’t implement it, to prevent it getting traction, I don’t think it’s a good feature.
And you could even say that Wittgenstein took a somewhat similar route, when he shifted his interest from the unanswerable riddle of existence and its implications to the exploration of meaningful existence as a human being, which is inevitably involved in a social process. (Mind that this is not suggesting any substantial similarities beyond this.)

I think that by even asking the question if the system has been trained to recognize accidents you're giving it too much credit.

It simply does not recognize objects that are not moving. This is not a smart system but something very dumb. As for accidents, it will never be able to understand visually what constitutes an accident site.
