Western Maryland has a pretty low cost of living. I live in the Baltimore/DC area and have co-workers who live in Frederick because they could get a large house for cheap (and 3 the counties being discussed in the article are to the west of Frederick).

If the counties were able to succeed and join WV, I wonder how many Marylanders would move out there for the low taxes.
Most actively-posting accounts on Twitter are not "normal people", but rather either corporate PR brand ambassadors, or the same sorts of social climbers who write blog posts on LinkedIn. Of course they do what's algorithmically advantageous. That's why they're bothering to post to Twitter in the first place, instead of/in addition to the six other social networks they maintain a presence on.
> * obsessive interest
> * independent-mindedness
> * work on your own projects
> * work hard

So an anti-list might be:

* allowing your interest to wander
* believing everything you’re told
* work on other’s people’s stuff
* work half-heartedly

>Think having your eyeball scanned by "The Orb" to prove you're human is too dystopian? Just squat over The Block and pinch a loaf to mint a block on the Fecalcoin blockchain that is tied to your unique fecal biome.

Why is it even matter if you are human or not if you are able to input computational power to PoW coin in order to mine then trade coins or use them to trade goods. Imagine AI bot which is programmed to mine PoW coin then trade and make you profit while you input computational power and electricity as the energy resource.

Perhaps a better approach is to click on "favorite" at the top. I personally find it easier than trying to go through my comments history.
I think it's also important to take into account the knowledge level of the person you're asking the question to. I often find, for example, that by the time I need to contact some sort of support person for an online or business transaction, I've exhausted most things they're generally used to, and tend to have a reasonably complex issue. You would think that "stating your understanding" would work well there, as it would get you past rehashing all the things you've already tried, but I find it usually backfires. More often it just throws the person off and you end up getting confusion and/or guesses presented as fact.

So I guess I would generalize that step, so it's more like, "establish both parties' understanding," which you can do by getting into your own understanding more gradually, and gauging the responses.
I think people are focused on the wrong issue. The fee % is not the problem. The problem is the restriction against using other types of payment processors.

I am 100% OK with Google, Apple, or whoever charging whatever price they want to charge for using their app store services. They are, after all, providing all of the infrastucture for software delivery, updates, payments, etc. Not to mention giving you access to a massive potential userbase.

The problem is them preventing you (the developer) from allowing the user to use other forms of payment processing within the app itself. Apple is the worst offender of this. Google obviously allows side-loading of apps and other app stores for Android while Apple does not. Apple goes so far as to prevent you from linking to a website with an external payment option, or to even suggest in text within your app that there are ways to subscribe/pay outside of the app store.

They claim it's about the user experience and security, which is legitimate, but it's almost certainly about keeping those nice profit margins. It's within their right to charge what they want to use their store, but the restrictive nature of not allowing competition is wrong. If Apple would even allow sideloading of apps this wouldn't really be an issue. They could keep things as-is and just tell developers "Don't like the app store rules? That's fine, but you can't list your app here. Good luck in the free market."

Because mobile computing has become the primary form of computing for many (most?) people, the fact that these few companies have so much power about what people can and can not do on their own devices is scary.

Edit:
At a minimum, they could require developers to make all payments available via the official app store payment platform, in addition to any other types of payment processing they want to do. This would let the customer decide and would get rid of any regulatory concerns about monopolies. And you know what? I bet most customers would still pay via the official app store/play store payment method, but at least the other options are there. I also think the policy of not allowing apps from outside the app store to be installed is insane. It's your device, you should be able to use it how you want to.

I hope this is a signal that Brooks has turned to activism and is working to spread the message of love within his party. I eagerly await examples of his success and wish him all the best.
That’s not usually the case. That’s what IT department thinks is the reason, but finance can and does deal with broken files all the time for a variety of reasons.

I think what you’re referencing is when the IT department asks me and my team, do any processes break if we change version’s? And the answer is always, please we’ve been asking for years. Occasionally there is an add on we use that becomes a dependency. I feel like that was more of an issue in the past. Now that basically everything is 64 bit compatible, we do some testing and tell IT no risk here.

Excel has good support for rolling forward. Not always backwards compatible, but going forward breaking is quite rare. Things like XLS to XLSX happen rarely and they still largely work moving forward.

When I talk to the IT guys it’s more about reliance on exchange servers, outlook/calendar, and of course the corporate licensing that makes upgrading just for us finance guys difficult

My company is using this to build a large CRM for a client. It's great so far! Nicely done. We started using it a few months back so we didn't have all the nice recent additions. I'm looking forward to editing scaffolds and tweaking some of the templates. I will definitely use this again in the future. I wish the canvas view was a little more sophisticated (keyboard/mouse zoom, items being added in the middle of the screen) but otherwise it works
That's just not an accurate summary of my posting history. I post on a wide range of topics. The last 2 weeks I posted about bitcoin, education policy, tax policy, the British royal family, software architecture and that upvoted comment on the Chappelle thread that you flagged (which was admittedly wading into the muck a bit).

I'm sympathetic to the fact that flame wars about China are too common here, and hey, banning the non-american point of view might end them, circlejerks can only go so far on their own. So maybe you're right, but I wouldn't be super satisfied with that solution.
the number of 2 question emails ignored infuriates me! I hate the inefficiency, but have learned to deal with it the same way. Sometimes you have to go slow to go fast.

Having criminal charges brought against you can ruin your life. Even if you’re completely and entirely vindicated in court it takes a serious toll on your mental, physical, and financial health. And that’s assuming you (can afford to) have a competent attorney and your boss is understanding of the situation enough not to fire you.
> The most obvious problem here is the wording of the question. “Offensive” is a term almost exclusively associated with the political left. Conservative media has spent years reinforcing the idea that feminists, minorities and college students are too easily offended. When conservative throw tantrums— Dr. Seuss, face masks, Lil Nas X, the “war on Christmas,” we could do this all day — their paroxysms are almost never described using the O-word.

The author clearly has biases of his own, but this is actually an interesting point I hadn't really thought about. If we replace the word "Offensive" with something like "Disrespectful" or something we might completely flip the results, so the very question is politically primed to begin with.
The Aadhaar project faced the same issue, and learnt this lesson over a decade (ending up with trusted hardware, on-device signing, and rooting out untrusted operators).

Unfortunately, Worldcoin plans to deploy it in untrusted environments, which sounds like the biggest "hack me for free money" sign ever.

Thank you for linking this, I had a great experience reading it and discovering the same problem that the author had. I didn't even consider it was possible to directly and intentionally have an emotionally vulnerable conversation! I love when I have them, but I always thought of them as 'happy accidents' that just occur sometimes.

It's never even popped into my head that these are avenues in a conversation that you can take with intention.
Great point. I often find myself frustrated when someone only answers one of my two (very clearly laid out) questions. Should definitely make more of a point of keeping it to one at a time.
Sure, the skills the parent comment mentioned are all separate skills, but they're probably pretty strongly (and positively) correlated with each other and with traditional measures of intelligence like performance on IQ tests. It's accurate to say that intelligence isn't the only thing that matters, and probably accurate to say that society generally overstates its importance, but claiming that intelligence doesn't exist is a severe and inaccurate overcorrection.
How can one break an addiction to contempt? The answer is dead simple.

> Living the New Life

> Therefore, I say this and testify in the Lord: You should no longer walk as the Gentiles walk, in the futility of their thoughts. They are darkened in their understanding, excluded from the life of God, because of the ignorance that is in them and because of the hardness of their hearts. They became callous and gave themselves over to promiscuity for the practice of every kind of impurity with a desire for more and more.

> But that is not how you learned about the Messiah, assuming you heard about Him and were taught by Him, because the truth is in Jesus. You took off your former way of life, the old self that is corrupted by deceitful desires; you are being renewed in the spirit of your minds; you put on the new self, the one created according to God’s likeness in righteousness and purity of the truth.

> Since you put away lying, Speak the truth, each one to his neighbor, because we are members of one another. Be angry and do not sin. Don’t let the sun go down on your anger, and don’t give the Devil an opportunity. The thief must no longer steal. Instead, he must do honest work with his own hands, so that he has something to share with anyone in need. No foul language is to come from your mouth, but only what is good for building up someone in need, so that it gives grace to those who hear. And don’t grieve God’s Holy Spirit. You were sealed by Him for the day of redemption. All bitterness, anger and wrath, shouting and slander must be removed from you, along with all malice. And be kind and compassionate to one another, forgiving one another, just as God also forgave you in Christ.

- Ephesians 4:17-32 (HCSB)

I realize some of the people who might see this have had bad experiences with so-called Christians. I was a staunch Atheist for the vast, VAST majority of my life, specifically because of how some so-called "believers" had treated me when I was very young. I hated Christians so much I scared a preacher half to death, threatened to beat him up, and got him to run away in tears.

My own contempt, my rage, my unbridled hatred for people was off the charts. Anyone who didn't agree with me 100% on everything was an idiot, and I was not afraid to tell them so.

I'm saying all of this to say, if you resent me writing all of this, I get it. I really do. On a fundamental level, I understand that anger. But if you feel like you want to know the only answer to how to turn away from letting those controlling, destructive emotions from ruling your life; this anger that we all seem to be under the thumb of, then there is a very clear, obvious answer: God

Not just mere acknowledgement, or even a reverence for Him, but a stout willingness to obey His commandments and follow His teachings.

There's only one religion that tells you not just that it's wrong to murder, but that to hate someone in your heart is murder, and worthy of the same punishment. There is only one that holds everyone to that level of accountability.

Think it over.

The author writes about a "congressional candidate who body-slammed a reporter", which is fair enough, but not the whole story -- that congressional candidate won their race and served in Congress and is now a Governor who body-slammed a reporter.

This is partially why I decided not to go the PhD-> try to become a professor route. It really is an incestuous community these days. I also noticed that a very large portion of the people at the “top” of the pipeline into academia have connections to academia in the US (eg a parent professor) who can help them get or navigate getting a lot of these early “prestige” markers. If you don’t have that, even if you’re just as smart, you’ll have a hard time breaking in.

For example a lot of those kids will start doing “research” in HS, obviously in 99% of cases very closely directed by their mentor, who may be a parent. This gets them those fancy “17 year creates clean drinking water for $0.002/L” news coverage and possibly helps them win a nationally recognized science fair. Then they can also get tutored for Olympiads - unless you have a Von Neumann level intelligence you basically need a lot of special studying to be able to get far in those. Then they get into accelerated programs with local universities with the help of their parents, obviously get into whatever college they want, get the best research opportunities starting freshman year, and it continues to snowball from there.

Not saying this system doesn’t make great scientists, or that the people who benefit from it aren’t smart or qualified. Just, ultimately there are only so many professorships to go around, so good luck becoming a professor in STEM at an acclaimed R1 university without this kind of pipelining, even if you’re just as smart.
I guess I just don't care enough about whether or not a person, party, or politician has contempt for me. Whoever has the policy that will be best for the country and the population overall.

That's the serial implementation, which is clearly O(n^2). The systolic algorithm runs in linear time on specialty hardware (similar to a tensor core, which can do comparisons in a square matrix, and can perform row-sums). Or, if we ignore communication overheads, it can run in O(n) time with O(n) parallel workers.

My genetic grandfather live in West Virginia, i'd say it is way more diverse than you think it is. I depends where you go though. People who live there are great, i thought at the time i met the only true left candidate in the US (It was before Bernie was a thing).

Back-to-land'er hippies communities are a joy to frequent: they play music every time they're not hiking, brewing, building their home or tending their garden. They also tried to do their own festival. If you want to met some of them, you have to try producer markets and talk to the guys there, or just go to a bar where music is played and talk to the musicians.

You can also participate in a home brew contest, you'll taste horrible stuff, pretty good stuff, and meet wonderful people..
Does your company have any diversity hiring rules?
Hiring with diversity in mind can be implemented in many ways. One example is the Rooney Rule [1]:

>The Rooney Rule is a National Football League policy that requires league teams to interview ethnic-minority candidates for head coaching and senior football operation jobs. It is an example of affirmative action, even though there is no hiring quota or hiring preference given to minorities, only an interviewing quota.

Another example is the Mansfield rule [2]:

>The Mansfield Rule measures whether law firms have affirmatively considered (at least 30 percent of the candidate pool) historically underrepresented lawyers for leadership and governance roles, equity partner promotions, and lateral positions.

I am curious if the companies you work for do anything similar? I work at a tech company that has between 1,000 - 2,000 employees. We have a hiring / recruiting rule that says we must have at least 2 candidates in the phone screen stage from underrepresented backgrounds (defined as Black, LatinX, Native American, or women / non-binary). There are a handful of exceptions to our rule. One example is that if 3 or fewer people are given a phone screen, only 1 of them must be from an underrepresented background.

The lie is pretending that people who post statements on a platform like Twitter and have a wide-spread audience or follower-base do not have any intent.

The lie is pretending that someones' written words are not actually enough evidence to show their intent.

The lie is pretending that statements exist completely isolated from any cultural or historical context. Marjorie Taylor Green has a well documented history of making very controversial statements.

The lie is ignoring the fact that time and time again conspiracy theorists keep bringing up the same scapegoats. Perhaps you are simply unaware that historically, attempting to link things with "Rothschild" is a very long-standing anti-semetic conspiracy and a known dog whistle.

>The 2006 film Borat aimed to expose American bigotry, xenophobia and sexism as the title character's unwitting scene partners reveal their true beliefs.

I loved these movies but the idea that Sacha was taking a moral stance is the height of delusional rationalization. Borat is a racist caricature. This is equivalent to filming in black face then acting like the filmed bystanders are racist a*holes and you are morally enlightened.
Cloudflare does already use a significant amount of Rust, blogs about it, and they are usually well received.
The ability to replace the prelude does mean that you can imagine if somebody invents a much better thing than, say, Rust's iterators Rust 2050 can have a prelude that brings in std::better::Iterator instead of std::iter::Iterator and then most coders will end up using the new better iterators, just because that's the kind you get out of the box.

Anybody who literally refers to std::iter::Iterator gets the old ones of course as does any library code from prior editions, but the documentation could lead those few people in the right direction. And presumably std::better::Iterator politely implements std::iter::IntoIterator because why not.

I would be interested to understand if they're allowed to replace the macros. The standard macros aren't actually from the prelude, but instead if you aren't no_std you get all the standard macros anyway. Are they allowed to change those in a future edition? Or not?

It makes life easier. E.G.

- Someone is explaining a concept.

- We get it in a few seconds, can come up connections, next steps, implications, etc.

- Other people need to have it explained longer, or miss the main point, or don't see how it connects to other pertinent things.

You can see how that would make life easier, and make you more effective at a variety of real time tasks.
