I probably had access to the Web from a Unix workstation by then. Had BBS systems and things like FTP earlier. At that point though, none of those things had any material effect on how I lived my day to day life (other than computer hobby-related). I think when I checked a few years ago, my first order from Amazon wasn't until sometime in the late 1990s, for example. And I don't recall using the Internet for anything really work related until around that time as well. If you want to go back a few more years to 1990, I doubt I had a cell phone yet.
Thanks. I've already provided a proxy option.
> Convince people that we need to reform prisons and jail fewer people.

Well, why should it convince people of that? Perhaps people are in fact being rational. When a necessary social role becomes expensive, it makes sense to make it cheaper, not to stop doing it.

Are you going to get rid of courts because it costs so much to bring someone to trial? We have a large prison population because we have a large criminal class in this country. 5 homicides per 100K, 370 violet assaults per 100K. Those are committed every year. With these statistics, having ~400 prisoners per 100K is what you would expect, if not on the low side, since we haven't even started talking about non-violent crime. If you disagree, which of these do you think should not get jail time?

Alternately, find a way to prevent crime.

I was not attempting to describe you, and I apologize if that's what I communicated. My response was intended to be to your opening comment:

I've never seen anybody suggest that you can't be bigoted against a dominant group.

I am pointing out that that /is/ a current and growing worldview among many, even if you have not yet seen it yourself. Your views are your own, and I have relatively little insight into it from your post.

I would point out that it is the logical extension of what you stated in the first post in this subthread, carried to its extremes. If you don't believe those extremes should hold, I would ask you to consider: what is the limiting factor for you? Where is the line drawn? How far is too far?

I tried this and it doesn't work. Turns out my MacBook was throttling to 30% due to overheating. This happens more frequently if you drive the GPU with an external monitor. Unfortunately the OS does nothing to notify you of overheating and throttling, which is an insanely stupid oversight by apple. I only found out because I noticed that the computer ran fine while running the AC, so I installed an app through Brew called "Hot" which tells you temperature and throttling percentage, and confirmed that this was indeed problem.

This happens when the room is over 80 degrees Fahrenheit, even when the CPU is at 3% utilization. Can't find root cause, or if this is even considered abnormal, but the laptop is defective in my opinion.

Their streak of blunders(1) has already made it challenging to convince myself to give them money this upgrade season. Polluting my experience with even more(2) ads has a really great chance of being the final straw.

2: their push notifications pushing [to me] useless services, noise in the Settings.app, parading Apple Music all over iTunes Store, Maps.app editor's picks seem like glorified ads, App Store search is both useless and has ads. It's already bad.

Layers of clear coat are applied after the paint layers. To repaint / modify a car you would need to first sand away the clear coat, then apply paint over the existing paint and do color matching (paint fades over time in sunlight; clear coat reduces but doesn't stop this, so a human must blend between the freshly painted area and the existing paint), then refinish with new clear coat.

All of this is very labor intensive and requires human experience and judgement. Actually putting the new paint down is a small part of the process and there wouldn't be much to gain by automating it.

For things like putting stripes on the car, as shown in the video, vinyl decals are a much better option. A lot can be done with vinyl wraps and decals. Applying them takes some time and human expertise to evenly stretch the vinyl and apply it without bubbles/creases/warping, but the process is very straightfoward compared to painting - you just clean the car and stick on the vinyl with the help of a hair dryer / heat gun.

Even for changing the color of your entire car I'm pretty sure wrapping comes out to be cheaper than a good paint job just due to the huge amount of human labor that painting requires (also automotive paint is expensive). And there are some really beautiful colors/effects available in wraps. And a full vinyl wrap is removable - just peel it off - so you can 'undo' the 'repaint' if you use vinyl. However for decorations like stripes, if you've left the decals on for a few years then it'll look ugly if you take them off since the decals will stop the paint under them from fading but the rest of the car's paint will continue to fade from sun/UV exposure, so you'll see the decal's shape 'imprinted' into the car's paint.
I disagree. If you don’t understand Monads then you loose a lot of opportunities to write clean elegant code in pure functional languages. I wrote my own Monads all the time in Haskell. However if you are not using a pure language then I agree.

What about drivers for graphic/audio/etc... cards? The kernel architecture is drastically different, and many things would need rewriting. This could take years, even decades.

Wine still does not emulate everything.

The graphic stack (wayland/X.Org) is also completely different, this would require a complete rewrite of the Windows UI. Could also take years.

I fail to see how your suggestion would be feasible.

If you perceive some pattern in stock prices, you can bet on the continuation of the pattern. If there were commonly discernible patterns to prices, everyone with cursory knowledge of finance would become magically rich.

This can't happen because prices rise as a consequence of buying and fall as a consequence of selling. People who bet on a pattern destroy it.

The consequent randomness is easily verifiable. Try running some stock market data through a machine learning library, you won't get any interesting results.
Awesome. GitHub-flavoured markdown is definitely my favourite Markdown editing experience overall. That’s largely due it being 95% markdown and ‘not Markdown plus a bunch of other cool features with poor interoperability’ that you find in Notion and Confluence.

Is there a proper document editor (eg. Has live preview) that is the same as GitHub-flavored Markdown such that I can copy text into Confluence or Notion and have things ‘just work’? I would use that as my editor and just copy into other places for publish.

hindsight is 20/20. just in time delivery help keeps food waste low, but before covid there were tons of articles lamenting how much food waste there was in america and how we needed to reduce it.

Many Jewish people in Hungary, Germany, and Poland could say the same in 01880 and even in 01920: "I've been surrounded by Jews, and none of them caught legal or social flack for being called a Jew in public." Don't say I didn't warn you.

I'm not clear what "hacking has originally started as describing computer crime" is supposed to mean, but "hacking" in the sense of "finding clever ways to surpass what was thought to be possible" goes back to the 01960s, while its "computer crime" meaning was created by journalists and then Hollywood in the 01980s, after Steven Levy's book "Hackers". They did this because they despised and distrusted the kind of people described in the book, us, and projected their greatest fears about computers onto us.

It's not impossible to get people to stop using a group identity term in a derogatory sense. "Gay" is, perhaps, commonly used in US high schools to mean "contemptible", and "jew" in some parts of the US is still used to mean "negotiate an unfair business deal", but no US newspaper would dare to use either term that way today.

If we value our lives, we need to force them to treat "hacker" in the same way.

Right, you are outlining the precise problem here. There is a direct line to a solution to avoid mass farming, mass suffering of animals, which is the moral issue at hand.

Instead of taking the most straight path which is eating less, and avoid over-eating for pleasure to solve the moral issue, society has favored and indirect, aimless path which creates problems in its path... let's continue over-eating, rewarding that industry by buying more and more food, and as a result more farms are needed, more chemicals in our food are needed, and also more doctors and medicine is needed to treat the illnesses that arise in parallel.

> Other animals are not any different than humans in that.

If you're going to lower the bar that low, then let's just do mass farming, and who cares if cows and pigs suffer? Animals don't care about the suffering of other animals. Just look up what chimpanzees to do other chimp tribes (it's pretty gruesome). If humans are just animals, then all this talk about making animals suffer is moot.
Implying that his success is about his race is not exactly a racist sentiment though. In order for it to be racist it needs to be discriminatory (heck, by your own definition of racism, success is not a “negative” stereotype). Such an implication points out to the fact that society gives an unfair advantage to some people just because of their race.

And (I assume) police and punish everybody who doesn’t comply. That doesn’t sound like a good thing.

Yes, it's true that people have used the word in a derogatory sense for decades.

I don't think Apple has any ownership stake in ARM anymore, regardless of their initial investment in 1990. (Though I'm not sure how much they still had up through 2016 when SoftBank bought them)

Do we know that Apple has a special arrangement not available to other licensees?

Near as I can tell, in terms of licensing rights the only major difference is that they purchase an "architecture license" that gives them the right to create more custom designs, but this is a license available to and purchased by other companies like Qualcom, Intel, and others. And if Apple has lower royalty rates, it may simply be a product of their scale rather than special treatment.

But I don't know this for sure-- only that a little bit of searching didn't find anything obvious about special arrangements.
As you're well aware, the "basically nobody" you're dismissing includes many of the founders of the most important tech companies and social movements today, plus the guy who built the website you're posting this on.

More to the point, though, if a prosecutor starts investigating you for "hacking" because you linked to your own website from your profile on this website (with records in archive.org going back to 01999, including your legal name, your wedding photos, etc., alongside a link to the "Hack The Planet" weblog and statements about things you've said on here), the fact that you protest that you "don't call yourself a hacker" won't cut much ice.

"Hackers" as a class are being blamed for a pandemic of extortion that is seriously endangering the society you live in, much like "communists" in the early 20th century, though in that case it was a pandemic of violently overthrowing governments. You may be too young to have lived through that but you can read about it.

>Why? Prison/jail guards aren't the ones keeping prisons/jails stocked with people.

you could say the same for private prisons. in both cases they're incentivized to put more people away. for private prisons it's contract renewals, for guard unions it's job security.

>Don't forget these are NYC salaries. $92k/year does not go very far there.

>The implication that prisons and jails are some kind of make-work operation for the guards is pretty vile.

Is it any more vile than the implication that private prisons and jails are make-work operation for the companies that operate them? It's also addressed in the article: "In 2012, the ratio of inmates to officers in the city was 7:5. In 2020 it was 1.6 officers per inmate.". What else would explain guard per inmate figure to more than double, from 0.71 to 1.6?
It's consensus for slowing case growth until everyone's had a chance to get vaccinated. It's not evidence of a consensus for covid zero, which is another thing entirely.
