I highly recommend The Boys on the Bus by Timothy Crouse[1] for some fantastic contemporaneous analysis of Richard Nixon and his relationship with the press. One part that stood out to me: Crouse believes (and presents compelling evidence) that Nixon was one of the first presidents to really understand the press, particularly the press of the nascent information age. Goldwater and Agnew were of the more reactionary anti-press strain, as other commenters have noted; Nixon (per Crouse) genuinely loved the press (if not reporters themselves) and relished in his control over it.

I've been thinking a lot of god and have come up with the following, please be kind:

The Right Way, The Trivium, The Path Towards Illumination.

TRUTH - The all knowing all seeing omnipotent natural universe which we have a special connection and natural understanding of. Nature. God. The Universe. In binary this would be 1. The Unified Field. Father.

FREEDOM - Sun. The Child Spirit To Play and Create. Son.

LOVE - Voluntary Passion, Drive, Motivation, Law of Attraction. Cooperation. Amplifier. Replicator. Wu Wei. Waters. Godly Bodily Fluids of Head and Genitals. Blood. Holy Spirit.

The only time Fear is more powerful than Love is when the Truth is hidden and individual Freedoms & essential Property including Body are subject to tyranny.

Therefore to stop tyranny in all forms we must live our lives according to natural law and the 3 pillars outlined above.

When we do this, together we live our best lives and create the best works of art and science and support each other to great heights.

This article only focuses on Truth God or Universal god.
Nothing is simple. Surviving during the last glaciation wasn't simple yet people still lived. Crossing the ocean without accurate maps wasn't simple yet the oceans were crossed. Developing and growing enough crops to feed 7.5 billion people when Malthus said the planet could not sustain 1 billion people wasn't simple but they were developed and the population is still growing. Landing on the moon, diving to the Marianas trench, reclaiming the 'polders' in the Netherlands, developing nuclear power, writing Beethoven's 5th symphony, writing and memorising "The Gulag Archipelago" to later commit it to paper were not simple but all those things were done.

What do you mean by saying "it's not that simple"?
Cf. apex (e.g., YHWH) versus non-apex (e.g., the Tao) conceptions of the numinous.
"I think it makes sense to assume the same target resolution for the iPhone and the DSLR, even though this isn’t true in practice"

It yields a practically perfect comparison of focus. This isn't a trick or handicapping, and the degree of focus/defocus is identical whether that SLR had 10x the resolution. There is utterly nothing arbitrary chosen here, and the amount a tree 10 feet outside the focus is out of focus will be identical on a 12MP SLR or a 24, 48, or 96MP version with the same focal length / f / sensor size.
What's the philosophical difference between your subjective experience of existence and a 90s-style power-on-self-test?

"I am on. I can tell that I am on. I dunno what I think once I am off." Same could be said of man, machine, consciousness, whatever.

What's incomprehensible is the baseless belief that consciousness is some special state of existence unique to balding, violent apes floating around a wet rock, anthropomorphizing all the crap around them just to make themselves feel special.
It means that consciousness nothing special/supernatural. There is no soul, there is nothing but chemical reactions that manage to create something that is able to claim "I think therefore I am"

The illusion is the fact that we claim that we are able to "experience", but I think that its all just layers of GOTO reactions that create something that think its special. Much like how a program isn't considered conscious, but its very likely its because we haven't dug deeply enough into the layers of shit that is required to make a self-aware computer

I think what actually happened is that there was a page where you could get information about a particular educator. In the HTML source the server returned for that page private information about *that educator* was included in non-displaying elements.
I have a funny story about this plugin.

The team I was working on was developing a new product with the word 'cloud' in the name. We were deploying database changes to facilitate the new product. This was a long time ago, and the organization still deployed things by hand, so there was no tooling for us to automate the deployment. Part of the deployment process involved pasting some SQL to create the tables and populate the initial data into a JIRA ticket for an administrator to run in production.

Said administrator was a fan of the cloud-to-butt plugin, and dutifully copied and pasted the SQL that they saw, like we instructed. When our code failed, an inspection of the production database revealed the culprit. Fortunately, 'cloud' and 'butt' are close to each other, alphabetically, so we didn't need to search very long.

We never let that admin live that down.
To follow this line of thinking, are you suggesting I can have an intimate relationship with a rock? If you're not speaking to the point about intimacy, what point are you speaking to, because your post isn't very clear what point, if any, you were trying to make.
Yes and Taiwan, too.
Interesting. It's my impression too. I understand that CPU limit will artificially throttle CPU, when not necessarily needed, wasting CPU cycles I could use.
(Java programs in my case but I imagine it's comparable to Go ones)

Do you recommend to disable CPU limit? In the general case.
If we leave just monitoring turned on, would we still see recommendations done by the tuning engine or do I need to enable auto time to start seeing those inputs from Ottertune?
Yes. The procedure you describe could also have been done any time prior to expiry, and more easily of course since the web still worked back then.

The time is completely arbitrary by the way, the people who minted the certificate could of course choose something else, but by default it's likely if it happens to be 14:26:39 UTC when you make the certificate, it's also going to expire at 14:26:39 UTC however many years in the future.

It's a little disappointing that sites catering to people who run old stuff (e.g. both old iPads and old Macs) didn't put much work into e.g. low friction ways to make this happen. Perhaps that's something where Let's Encrypt should have reached out to the right people and made sure this was on their agenda back in the summer.

But perhaps most people in your situation don't pay any attention to such things anyway and would still have been blind-sided.
Because what you know first hand of the disease is useless for others. My 54 year old uncle had COVID. He was just in the hospital for 5 days and came back no different from before COVID. My 29 year old friend spent 2 weeks ventilated in ICU and dying of multi organ failure

The symptoms of COVID 19 are not always flu like. It is a spectrum of symptoms which is not yet understood why it expresses in different bodies differently.

During the Second wave in India a lot of my friends and acquaintances got it and their symptoms were all over the place. Some had diarrhea like symptoms, some had no visible symptoms at all, some simply lost the ability to smell and became physically weak.

Knowing this information, trying to be safe from COVID by catching it is no less than playing Russian roulette and it makes choosing to take a vaccine no brainer.
Pantheism is a compromise between the existence of an Abrahamic monotheistic god and lack thereof. It's a belief system without submission nor worship which are the cornerstones of judeo-christian religions including islam by extension. You might argue that the psychological need for a superhuman all-powerful deity is in our genes and it may well be the case, but canalizing the need it onto nature/universe while cutting down submission sometimes is not enough because submission (intimacy, feeling vulnerable in the company of a powerful being) is as much a powerful need as believing in something.

I have a phone with a macro lens. I have a mirrorless camera. As I told you, what matters for bokeh is the distance to the object and the diameter of the aperture. The iPhone needs computational bokeh because the aperture is 2.4mm wide, whereas one of my lenses has a 40mm aperture. That's why my camera produces more bokeh - the aperture has a wider diameter while the distance to the object is the same.

That is literally the one and only thing that matters. The diameter of the lens, and the distance from the object. Take a piece of paper, draw the lens as a slit, draw the object as a point, and make a line from the two edges of the slit to the point, that continues furhter back. You'll get two triangles. Everything that is contained in those two triangles will be focused to the same point on the sensor. That's why the ratio between the two is what matters. That's why closer objects produce a more out of focus background than objects farther appart. That's what I'm trying to explain to you.

The DoF formula that photographers use does not work for comparisons across two different film sizes.
Lots of errors in this article. This for example is blatantly wrong and has been wrong for an eternity:

Current OS do not scale 4K, it means that if you plug a 4K display to a Chromebook or a macbook, it will use the highest DPI asset, in this case the 200% or @2x ones, and display them at normal ratio, making everything look good but tiny.
Hypothetical example: If you plug a 12" 4K screen to a computer with a 12" hi-res screen (2x), everything will appear twice as small.

Windows has literally had some degree of high-DPI support since 95, and has been able to adapt to that hypothetical example for years. All of Apple's devices handle it too even if you have to coax them a bit to understand your display geometry. I really don't know what the author is trying to convey there.
An easy way to get xfce is with the Xubuntu distribution. I've run that since 14.04, or maybe longer. I get all the benefits of Ubuntu with a lot less UI churn.

If you already have an Ubuntu box, you can also install the `xfce` package or do this:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:xubuntu-dev/staging
sudo apt update

I read the Texas bill and it's interesting because it lays out that controversial topics need to be discussed with a neutral point of view. But then goes on weigh in on a bunch of controversial topics.
I just looked and you're right.
If the sins really were deadly, the languages guilty of them would be, y'know, dead.

But instead, all of the most successful languages ever are guilty of all of them. Instead, any language guilty of none of them is dead.

So, maybe it would better to avoid the sins, anyway, but there very clearly are overwhelmingly more important considerations to making a successful language. Luck seems to have a role, especially in the first year, but other things seem to matter later.

> hell is other people.

This is such a common attitude in the US, but it's also a very US attitude. I mean, when I lived in Italy, there were just always other people around. High mountains, small towns, walk in the countryside... you're quite likely to see someone anywhere you go. So you just deal with it.

These things are personal preferences, so difficult to reason about, but I feel that a lot of people in the US would be happier if they didn't have this hangup about "other people", while participating in a society that is entirely and completely dependent on other people.
Not really. People think the Constitution says things about voiting that is does not say. For example, states could pass laws that people between the ages of 25 and 35 could not vote for President. That is constitutional. I'm not saying it would be accepted, but don't say things are unconstitutional just because you disagree.
The natural problem is drawing the line between which parts of you are conscious and which parts of you are merely the portion that surrounds the consciousness. Is merely your brain¹ conscious? The whole body? The brain+(not-brain body) system is conscious but the distinction isn't all that different from the brain+(not-brain body)+(not-you Earth) system being conscious.

I have to say I started with thinking that clearly containment vs. identity are separate but now for this question, I find myself confused. I bet someone has thought up this notion of what a being is already. If anyone has the keywords that will let me quickly search up the appropriate concepts in a dense fashion (i.e. without lots of unrelated stuff) I would be appreciative.

How can you prevent any incentives becoming economic eugenics?
Because, thinking the existing of subjective experience
that is any way special is just societal programming that claims that humans are special and important in the universe.

If you step away from the bias, there is no reason to think our consciousness is anything special. Who cares about subjective experience, it all disappears into the void when those chemical reactions stop.

If you told me that an ARM Cortex A9 is faster than a current i7, and then you put the excuse of "God made it" argument over the table you would look like a lunatic.

With the Universe origins is the same. Replace "God" with "Santa" and the argument gets equally ridiculous.

No one is claiming "I'm still me, but I want this other file now, please." is a malicious act.

The best phrasing I've heard is something like this: the more closely adapted a system is to one environment, the less adapted it can be to other environments. So by being very closely adapted to the steady state environment, it cannot be adapted to disrupted environments.
I don't think "comforting" is an apt description of pantheism; in fact, it postulating a cold mechanical universe (as opposed to the idea that a God must necessarily be omnibenevolent) is often cited as a criticism of pantheist frameworks.

I find that panentheist flavors tend to dabble more with metaphysical supernatural stuff, but that pantheism is characterized by its rejection of blind belief. Talks about intimacy and experience feel strongly panentheistic to me, whereas a pantheist might instead summarize their position with something along the lines of "the laws of physics are omnipresent and omnipotent, and that's the hard scientific evidence of the conceptual thing you call God"

The way I see it climate collapse is going to significantly increase the probability of nuclear war
My point was that it doesn’t matter what resolution we choose as long as we do the calculations based on the same resolution for both the iPhone and the DSLR (and hence with different values for the CoC in each case, given the different sensor sizes). Thus your value for the iPhone’s CoC derived from its pixel size is irrelevant. We can choose any target resolution we like to make the comparison and get the same result (comparatively speaking).

By resolution here I’m talking about what we could crudely measure in megapixels. Say for example that we have a target resolution of 5MP. We then calculate the corresponding CoC for both cameras based on their respective sensor sizes. You’ll find that the CoC for the iPhone will be smaller in proportion to the difference in focal lengths between the iPhone and DSLR. That cancels out one of the factors of f.

Sudosysgen is saying the same thing, but without going indirectly via the DoF formula that you’ve been using.
Don't be pedantic, you can see what I'm getting at here.

A lot more US citizens have a driver's license than a passport. It's the most common form of identification and if it doesn't specify citizenship then there will be millions of people who don't have any picture ID that can prove their citizenship status.

That problem could easily be solved by specifying whether you're a citizen on your driver's license. It's a poor excuse to extend the problem to other forms of ID that don't prove citizenship status.
Minor correction: this article says the Texas State Teachers Association is a union, but it is just an advocacy organization since teachers' licenses can be revoked for collective bargaining.

> Another is changing people's party affiliation, so they cannot vote in primaries.

Aren't the primary elections the business of the parties conducting them and not really part of the democratic process at all, but rather a way for parties to find their favorite candidate to put up for the real election? In that case, it doesn't matter for voting rights if a party excludes someone from their own election, does it?

Still dumping snapd into their server distro for some reason though.
Why have IDs for anything?
serde is one of the best things about Rust in practice.

It is more convenient to use serde to serialize/deserialize to some standard format like JSON or YAML than it is to write your own half-baked format and serialization/deserialization code --- even for the simplest tasks --- so you just stop doing the latter. This is a fundamental shift, and very good for your software.

"Convenience" here actually covers a lot of ground. The APIs are convenient. Boilerplate code is minimal (#[derive(Serialize)]). serde's attributes give you lots of control over the serialization/deserialization, while still being convenient to use. cargo makes importing serde into your project effortless. All of these are necessary to achieve that shift away from custom formats.

Before Rust I used to write a lot of one-off half-baked formats. Pernosco uses Rust and serde and it uses no half-baked formats. Everything's JSON, or YAML if it needs to be more human-editable, or bincode if it needs to be fast and compact and not human-readable or extensible.
"It applies even more outside of a courtroom."

>This line of reasoning is problematic as it just delays the stabilization. Maybe we could have a few billion more people now but surely there must be a limit somewhere. 10B, 50, 100? Sooner or later we'll have to stabilize.

The thing is, people will only reproduce less if they adhere to the cause. So if we get people to realize we all must care for our environment in order to live well, then you don't have to limit population growth. Limiting population growth will always be less effective than changing a way of life (which makes people not want too many children).

If you restrict reproduction, expect people to want more consumption (at least to compensate).
The CoC refers to the circle in the pixel that a point will be focused to. The pixels on an iPhone are much smaller than the pixels on a camera. If you use the same CoC for the iPhone, you are referring to many more pixels than on a DSLR.

Therefore, when you use the same CoC, you are asking the DSLR to be dozens of times closer to perfect focus, in pixel terms, than the iPhone, which is why you are calculating outlandish f stop values.

If instead, you have a target that the object must resolve to a pixel with the same resolution on both, you will arrive to an f stop linearly proportional to the sensor size, instead of proportional to the square of the sensor size.
Is it still 32bit?
I guess thats better then my idea of locking them up until they come to a consensus.
