The initial package with the "teaser" documents alone would probably be a lot of trouble given the claim that it already had restricted documents.

And probably a bunch of extra violations around military or clearance holder rules, depending on what specifically applies to him. Presumably doing things that make you an extortion target for a foreign power is not well-regarded for such personnel.

And there's always tax fraud.
The joke here is that this is something he only told by text, that was initially on his Twitter account, and it was a long-winded, typed story that ended with "don't be fooled by typists."
I used this as recently as 2018. It was available as a package in Chicken Scheme 4, but I don't think it was brought over to 5. Couldn't get it to build otherwise on MacOS or OpenBSD, but my hardware was underpowered.

It's neat I guess. The benchmarks I wrote were close to C, but I had trouble porting significantly complex Scheme to something Stalin could compile. I think it makes more sense to strongly type your own code than to wait ages for it to be inferred.

Hope this discussion doesn't devolve into complaints about the name again. It's okay to be a bit cheeky.

The vaccine increases immunity even for people who have already been infected. It makes total sense to have them get vaccinated.

Any risk is stupid if you already have better immunity than taking the vaccine. Once again, other diseases are handled exactly like this. Vaccine if you haven't had it, and no vaccine if you have. Doctors recognize that adding risk is a bad idea.
That's a good theory.

"Καιρός" is used (apart from the word for "weather") very much exactly how the article describes it, ie the opportune moment for something. E.g. "είναι καιρός για δράση" (it is the right time for action), "δεν ήρθε ακόμα ο καιρός του" (it's not the right time yet) and found in words like "εύκαιρος" (opportune, ie of the right time). "Καίριος" means timely, arriving just at the right moment.
They address this in Conan’s retrospective about Norm.

Andy was very uncomfortable about that joke because he didn’t want being gay to be a subject of ridicule, and he didn’t know how to face the gay crew members on the show, or gay friends and family, after making fun of the mere fact somebody could be gay.

At first I didn’t emphasize because the value of Norm MacDonald is that anything is fair game in the service of comedy and entertainment.

But now I get it. For Norm it was an improv bit in the middle of a “standup” bit on some show he was taping. For Andy it was an externally-imposed combo of ruined relationships, happening in the middle of his 9-5 entertainment industry career.

Both sides are valid, and I say this as someone who’s lovingly absorbed every Norm clip there is.
Jail. Not prison. Not yet at least.

The border has, after all, repeatedly been shown to be a place in which all rights, citizen or not, are 'suspended'.

Covid has shown that democracy in the western world is exceptionally weak.

Technology enabled authoritarianism is the overwhelming preference of those elected to 'represent the people'.

Let's be honest - if you aren't that intelligent / experienced or hard working it's just easier to govern this way.

Jacinda Ardern (New Zealand) - No life experience whatsoever other than politics - namely activist socialist youth organizations.

Justin Trudeau (Canada) - No life experience whatsoever other than high school drama teacher and scion of a Canadian political dynasty.

Joe Biden (USA) - No life experience outside of politics. Publicly exhibits signs of dementia / tiredness / laziness of thought.

In all if the above cases (3/5 of the '5 eyes' countries' FWIW) the elected leaders are so far below the level of intellect and experience necessary to navigate something as intricate as a pandemic that it is little wonder they just attempt to short circuit democracy / oversight / discourse.

Lockdowns. Mask Mandates. Covid Zero. Papers Please. Apps to cross the border.

The rate at which 'rights' in modern democracies were suspended, in favor of policies which only have precedent in authoritarian states such as China, is breath taking.

This Canadian border story is just another example that democracy is not nearly as robust or populous-centric as it may seem.

If you've never visited, give it a try. Flat lands, no pollution, little traffic, friendly people who put a great value on freedom. Truly a great state.

Mount Rushmore is in South Dakota, as is the Corn Palace and Wall Drug. (If you want to study ingenuity in business, have a look at Wall Drug.)

Just don't visit in the winter months. One of the few things that will give you a negative impression of the state.
Fun Fact: In Action in the North Atlantic (1943), Humphrey Bogart plays a first officer aboard a Liberty Ship sending supplies to Murmansk. It has some pro-Soviet and even pro-Communist propaganda, with brave Soviet pilots escorting the ship and cheering people shouting "tovarisch!" to the crew.

They are even told "Tovarisch means 'comrade', which is a good thing!" Then all the ship's crew shout "comrade" back to the throngs of happy, well-fed, smiling Soviet citizens in WW2.

Other fun propaganda lines: "I believe in God, President Roosevelt, and the Brooklyn Dodgers!". They even feature radio recordings of Roosevelt set to patriotic music.

Despite being heavy handed and not having the best effects (you can see lines pulling the subs) it's a fun movie for Bogart fans and those interested in propaganda films. On Amazon Prime, tagged with "Cerebral, Joyous, Intense".
Nice! In terms of switching between different editors - I use Command+` for that. I usually have UI and API open, and switching between those 2 is as easy as pressing that hotkey. Don't have to muck around with Command+Tab.

In terms of running 2 things at once, I prefer apple scripts - I have a script which opens up a bunch of iTerm tabs with all the watchers I need.

All in all, nice setup, good job! Always interesting to see how other peeps organise that stuff.

As the philosopher of science Paul Feyrabend wrote and made the convincing case in his book Against Method:

"Science is an essentially anarchic enterprise: theoretical anarchism is more humanitarian and more likely to encourage progress than its law-and-order alternatives."

"The consistency condition which demands that new hypotheses agree with accepted theories is unreasonable because it preserves the older theory, and not the better theory."

"Science is neither a single tradition, nor the best tradition there is, except for people who have become accustomed to its presence, its benefits and its disadvantages. In a democracy, it should be separated from the state just as churches are now separated from the state."

We don't need to put 0s in front of dates before 1000. Why do we need to do it for dates before 10000? Any date after that will have at least 5 digits, which distinguishes it from dates before then, which only have four digits.
authentication is trivial and session cookie based, as was common before JSON-based apps became the norm. all mature web frameworks have this form of authentication baked in or available as a standard library.

validation is also trivial: you do can do it server side as was normal for many years. htmx also allows you to plug in to the HTML5 client-side validation API if you'd like: https://htmx.org/docs/#validation

there is no need for a complex front end framework for the vast majority of web applications. something like twitter or gmail could easily be built using a hypermedia-oriented approach, but when they were built hypermedia hadn't been advanced in nearly two decades. now it has.
Fwiw, clojure is an acquired taste. It took me months to rewire my brain and get comfortable with it. Enjoy your time with TS and remember clojure if it ever doesn’t satisfy you anymore
The most common way to issue them is so-called "double trigger" vesting where you have both a) a service requirement (the time) and b) an event required (like IPO or sale). Since you have risk of forfeiture if IPO/sale does not happen, IRS does not deem vested (and thus taxable) until both triggers are satisfied.

Why would you wonder that? This forum is chock full of criticism of the American government by Americans. I’ve personally levied a huge amount of it myself on this very website. In fact, I genuinely cannot imagine how you could possibly ask such a question in good faith.
You've expressed all my concerns nicely.

I wish they'd have mandatory battery shapes and standards. I think that would go a long way towards preventing death-by-unsupported-batteries.
JREs have basically been replaced with building custom executables via jlink. It basically includes a barebones JVM with only the modules that you need. You no longer have to either distribute or ask your users to download a JRE that includes the kitchen sink, you instead use jlink to create a custom distribution that only includes the modules that your code actually uses. For example, if your application does not use Swing, jlink won't include it.
The initial package probably violated the law by itself.
This may be apocryphal, but I thought JS's `Array.includes` method was so-named when it was added to the spec to avoid conflicting with popular libraries that were adding a `contains` method to the Array prototype. In order to avoid conflicting and breaking existing sites, a less-common name was chosen for the spec.
Yep. "It takes time" = "παίρνει χρόνο". "It's time for lunch" = "είναι ώρα για μεσημεριανό" (or, less commonly, "είναι καιρός για μεσημεριανό").
To be honest, 90k$ seems too small to take such huge risks. Were they already in some kinds of debt? Maybe, that tipped the FBI to target them?
It's a pain because it forces users to consider and code against error paths.

Just like putting on a seat belt is a pain.

Both are pains that are worth having because they help you create robust software.

The ways in which a function can fail should absolutely be part of its signature, and if these are recoverable, the compiler should refuse to build until you either handle these errors or pass them on to the caller.

Beyond that, "I recommend learning about the history, then you can guess that terrible things were happening" isn't really changing anything I said, which is primarily about how the US backed it's own military dictatorship in South Korea.
Thousands of kids die every year of the flu but we never mandated the flu vaccine for them but somehow hundreds of deaths over almost two years is supposed to prove COVID is more dangerous and experimental vaccines with no long term safety data should be mandated for kids? Give me a break!

I do know the meaning of tell as in "betrays/reveals/is a sign that", but it wasn't clear what it would be a tell of (that the story is true? that the story is false?).

In either case, the Band eating with Dylan in the 90s would indeed be a tell that it's a made-up story, but I see no reason for Norm to use this particular tell to convey so. There are tons of either funnier or more contemporary and relevant tells he could use.
Sub secrets are the most sensitive secrets we have

Source? I can't imagine what kind of secrets an opponent could want about a sub. I can see how operational data about the disposition of the fleet is useful, but the subs themselves? Subs have a ball of Pu powering a steam turbine that runs propulsion and onboard electronics. Some of them have strategic missiles for killing cities, some of them have torpedoes for killing ships and other subs.

Not asking for any secret data, obviously. Just wondering what kind of secret data is even useful to an adversary.
If he is dealing with a government agent and receiving money then he has to report it at his work.

Even if he 'knows' it's an undercover US department.

So, they would and should still throw the book at him.

He'd be secretly dealing in 'data', fake or not, and money related to his classified job. Not hard to see that's very illegal. He would be leaking info as well just talking to them. They might collate speech structure that links him to other non classified/leaked projects. Or know where he lives or work hours.
Considering fake vaccine cards are already making the rounds, I doubt the positive test is easier to fake.

Looking at my vaccine card, there is nothing special like a ID number or even a signature from a doctor.

The stickers for each shot have the name of the vaccine and a lot #, so that might be the tough part, but the lot numbers are screwy. The first one is a ###A##-#A sequence and the second one is a ###A##A sequence. Not sure if there is a national tracking database on that part. No barcode for easy scanning so it probably isn't checkable.

My Dad's testing cards (The VA was doing a test for every appointment so he got tested three times in two weeks because he was having a non-COVID related issue) had a doctor's signature and the results.

In this case, it's not. We really do use "kairos" to mean "the opportune moment". It's not about instant versus durable, it's never kairos for something that's not supposed to happen now, no matter how instant.

My mistake, thanks. Missed that sentence.
It's shameful the article does not contrast states with and without COVID restrictions. Instead it just "decides" it's lack of COVID restrictions, cherry picks some states and publishes.

And then the media wonders why people don't trust them.
Anyone who watches a Hollywood movie and assumes it accurate is a fool. Movies are made to make money not educate.

It’s like the chase scene at the end of Argo. That never happened. They just got on the plane and left but if the movie was accurate that would be a horribly boring ending so they made up a better on.
> This is at least partially biological

This is good context but isn’t a justification. You didn’t say it was but I wanted to emphasize that a biological reason isn’t a moral justification.

> deception is of utmost value in a competitive environment

All lying is deception, but not all deception is lying in the sense I intended. I make the distinction because camouflage, wood patterned linoleum, or mental reservation (outside oaths and other serious matters) are all forms of deception but are not lies.

> See all of Capitalism, for example

Don’t conflate capitalism with Marketing! It isn’t unfair to characterize marketing as weaponized lying. Selling my beets at the farmers market is capitalism but is not lying.
Providing the info for others to decide for themselves, personally I wouldn't call them underpaid or overpaid, the compensation seems in line with the rest of the market for their level of education.
Exactly. Before learning Nix I used Elixir and Clojure, so I was pretty much at home using a functional language (even if Clojure/Elixir are not exactly pure functional, but they come close with their immutable data structures).

The other thing that trips some people is that Nix has lazy evaluation. Even Elixir or Clojure uses eager evaluation, so this concept is even more uncommon the functional programming. However, this concept bite me just a few times, so it is not like you have frequent issues with it.
Option 1, he thought he was some cassanova and that she'd be impressed by the effort he put into stalking her. Women who fall for this... exist, but not without significant childhood trauma. The relationships (two) I've seen form under such conditions have been passionate, short-lived, abusive, and eventually involve the police.

Option 2, he has a humiliation/degradation kink and got exactly what he wanted.
The only thing I can say here that’s within the rules is this: this is completely unrelated to what I actually said. I’m not sure where this conversation you’re paraphrasing happened, but I wasn’t part of it.
It's one of the biggest areas of age discrimination out there -- unions negotiating tiny starting pay for new members so they can give continuous increases to older members. They give them the worst classrooms, too. Teacher pay overall is just fine.

That's a really bad way to define ant-vax since that would encompass a lot of people following accepted practices with the measles vaccine along with some others.

Anti-vaxers hate all vaccines. Most of this thread is about following actual science and practices used for other vaccines. If you've had it, then don't get the vaccine, otherwise get the vaccine.
The Ford F-150 aims to solve that problem (and I guess other EVs will have / has similar capabilities).

> With an electric motor mounted on each of its axles, the vehicle will offer more torque — in effect, faster acceleration — than any previous F-150 and will be capable of towing up to 10,000 pounds. Its battery pack can power a home for about three days during an outage, according to Ford.
For contractors and other commercial truck users, the Lightning will be able to power electric saws, tools and lighting, potentially replacing or reducing the need for generators at work sites. It has up to 11 power outlets.

> mathematicians do, in private, use the word “morally”

This is very true, and I had never thought about it before.

I often hear phrases like “well the statement is morally true” or “morally speaking”

My feeling is that the word “morally” is used to indicate that you are sharing your intuition which does not have a precise meaning (for example, I would say a statement is morally true it is should be true under appropriate conditions which may or may not be difficult to specify)

So it does seem ironic to write an essay about a word used to indicate that an idea should not be investigated in any precise way, but I did find the essay interesting!
Perhaps that schools should just be open year round? That would also be a huge benefit to working parents (particularly mothers) who, you know, don’t get summers off.
