the one thing i've never been able to find in california is a roasted duck in red curry as good as the one i had in bangkok. not sure what the difference is, but the one in bangkok was seriously one of the best thai curries i've ever had and the local versions are just okay, even in restaurants that make other things really well.
I will highly recommend you to the best hacker in USA on instagram @knot_hack who helped me recover my Facebook and Instagram,he is reliable and efficient https://www.instagram.com/knot_hack/

That kind of proves my point. There are more than 300 million people in the US, and they've only reached 4%. Hardly the kind of thing that will solve the problem for less sophisticated people.

Also, the problem of unbanked/underbanked people exists despite them, so that's another clue that they're not the solution.
Ah, yes, the misanthrope defense. Ask your mom if you deserve to live, and see what she's got to say. If she asks why, explain that you think that she'd have been a better wageslave if you didn't exist.

Thankfully, reproduction is thoroughly protected constitutional right. You'll thank me when my kid's taxes are paying for your social security and medicare. You're welcome. Because we live in a society.

But weirdly enough? There's a new law in Texas, and copycats coming to a state near you, that will legally oblige women to carry a child to term, even in cases of rape. So, the answer to your question is yes. Fuck.
It is interesting to see this up close, from a human perspective. I was on a boat to Long Beach from Catalina last month, and the container ships are just everywhere. I counted 25 in view from the just right side of the boat. Very spooky.
Been using .NET since 2010. To this day I haven't found anything better overall (for my use cases). Experimented here and there, but in the end I always come back to C#. And it keeps getting better.
We were duped! I fell for it!

News straight up lied to control the 2020 election narrative and outcome. We have watched an unprecedented fast fall into authoritarianism. Major networks are all but complete propaganda departments. Biden criticism was swept under the rug to protect him all the while the media held no punches for his opposition. Rational nuanced discussion of pandemic and related policies were off the table and we were just dictated mandates. People didn't vote for this. Our country has stumbled from one self inflicted crisis to the next as the coverage of the failures goes either unreported or censored. Kneejerk mistruths drive doomed to fail federal policy ( border control horse whips!)

This administration is so unbelievably incompetent.

People are rightly angry as hell. This discontent isn't limited to specific groups. It includes: Blacks, whites, lefts, rights, zoomer, boomer. It's not a small group either.

"Let's go Brandon" is being shouted across the country.

We should listen. We should ask why.

We were told successes were failures.

Now where told failures were successes.

People don't like being lied to or ignored.

"Let's go Brandon!"

How many cranes does the Port of Long Beach have?
The berths at the Port of Long Beach's Pier G International Transportation Service terminal are equipped with 17 gantry cranes. Of those cranes, six have outreach of 19 containers across, seven have outreach of 16 containers across, and four have outreach of 13 containers across.
No, bauxite processing is pretty benign. Strong hydroxides are used to extract the aluminum. Conveniently, a fraction of the gallium in the ore also leaches into the same hydroxide solution, so you can extract it by processing the waste solution after the aluminum has been precipitated. Any ore that uses strong alkali extraction is a candidate for cheap gallium extraction.

Bauxite processing produces iron, silicate, and similar minerals. Nothing anyone would identify as toxic. The alkali hydroxide solutions are recycled because they are one of the most expensive inputs. Nothing to worry about as such things go.
What are your interests? Why do you want to have (more) friends?
I won’t get into the ethics of it, but it is impractical to pay for each individual website. Sticking my credit card in for WSJ, NYT, Economist, some random news site, Medium, Substack, it’s just too much.

The business needs to consolidate under one payment portal, and I’d pay a decent amount per year.
But our phones are listening. We took a long drive today, and my wife and I discussed homosexuality during a significant portion of that drive. Once we got home, my wife started seeing ads for gay bars and events in Sarasota. Neither of us is homosexual, for what that’s worth.

This isn’t the first time this has happened. Every so often my wife would suddenly see ads on Facebook about things we’ve just discussed in meatspace. You might call this anecdata, but to me it’s a pattern because it keeps happening.
> Homelessness is an American (West Coast liberal) problem. Funny how East Coast cities don't have these problems.

Hard to imagine anybody takes you seriously in life posting things this ignorant. Like, I can only be led to believe you've read not one singular thing about homelessness on the East Coast.

"West Coast Liberal" is also hilarious but probably not an argument for HN.
Using some sort of hash instead of transcribing the speech doesn’t change any of the things I listed that make this implausible.

There would need to be a background service that has access to the mic without using the official APIs (which show a mic notification) that somehow no one has been able to find for the 5+ years that people have been claiming this is happening.

The truth for all of these is probably that we are boring and predictable combined with some version of the Baader-Meinhof Phenomenon.
The performance difference between (peek n) and (last n) for vector typed n strikes me as something that really ought to be handled by the implementation, not the programmer since the outputs are equivalent.

I really like clojure, like, a lot, but I might have taken an opposite than intended result from this blog post. It made me feel like the language has a number of performance footguns that don't necessarily need to exist.
>Can agree but after spending some time learning thai dishes, there are a lot that are really not that healthy. There's a lot of sugar in dishes to offset the bitterness of fish sauce and other ingredients.

As a Thai, I can confirm this. Not really to offset, but make the dish more flavorful. They sometimes use a lot of palm sugar, but... maybe that's a tad healthier than cane.

These are all good points. But it's still astonishing to me that she could not find someone INSIDE of Thailand who knew or studied the old Thai recipes. I would have figured there would be SOMEONE. Nobody could recommend anybody to her who would have been able to help her. Mind you, I have no idea how big her social and professional network was at the time, only that she went around asking Thai chefs and found nobody.
Maybe you could be a secret Santa?
Coming to conclusions about solutions via Joe Rogan's podcast is only contributing to the problem, friend.
Have you automated this or do you still manually type it out every time?

Automate in the sense that when an article that has been reposted hits the front page, a post like the above is auto generated, looking back at previous submissions of the same post
It seems you have a similar association for Facebokks brand! Nowhere in my comment did I mention Facebook directly.
Who decides that though? You and I may agree today on a particularly egregious claim, but it won’t always be that clear and we won’t always agree.

The problem is that the slope isn’t slippery until someone in power decides to abuse it, then there’s no footing left at all.

There another often overlooked point here. When you cede the ground that there exists speech that should be sanctioned by the state, you are giving a powerful argument to people who stand against pluralism. The troglodytes who shot up the Charlie Hebdo office specifically accused the writers of hate speech. We shouldn’t give ground to people like that. Even abhorrent speech must be free from government sanction or else we allow for state violence to be used to suppress free expression. When we open that door, all manner of vile creatures might push there way through. Within the broad expanse of human beliefs everyone is a heretic open blasphemer to someone.
No it's not a disingenuous take. I read the article. You have a politician who actually goes and talks to a group of homeless - which is more than 99% would ever do - then come back with his observations.

Sure, you can say "that doesn't represent all homeless", but I don't think the mayor was saying that. Here is a direct quote:

"We can clearly do more to help people and move them on to stable housing," Coffman said. "What isn’t working is spending more money on it without changing behaviors. People are never going to [move] forward with their lives. You don’t want to be in a situation with public policy where you’re enabling really bad, destructive behavior."

What is so terrible about those conclusions?

And the gatekeeping by homeless advocates is really stark in that article. Their attitude is literally "You want to know about homelessness, you talk to me, don't go out there talking to these people on your own".

How in the hell is that anything close to a reasonable take?
In my case, and some other people I know (though not all in tech) it was a lot of things that existed for a while, and covid was just the last drop. Not sure I can generalize it, but it's my experience.
Those 6 high stacks are the ones at the port. From the thread, there are plenty of smaller secondary lots outside the ports where empties are being stacked, because the ports won't accept them, and there's room. The zoning based stacking limit affects those secondary yards, but not the port yards. A real question is if the secondary yards have equipment to stack higher or if they can really only go two high, because they were limited by zoning anyway.

> It would also be interesting to know if it would be feasible to make the containers able to be disassembled and multi-packed into an empty container.

Not really; everything's welded together, and if you unweld and reweld, it's not going to be as strong. Plus that's a lot of labor. There are some collapsible containers, but those tend not to have sides or a top, which is not ideal for ocean shipping.
It depends excessively on season and climate; adjust for all new locations and times of the year.

If a climate induces sweat assume reduced upper limits even for breathable items (E.G. shorts).

If you smoke or apply perfumes, all of these times are out the window for my tastes; it is impossible for you to have fresh cloths.
Why do we need to do anything? Whats the problem with people being homeless and keeping to them selves?
In June 2021 I left Google after 6 years. I outlined my motivations here [1]. Long story short it's a conscious bet that time and energy are scarcer commodities for me than money. I'm not sure I'll last a full year but I think I have a few months left in me.

And it doesn't unmount partitions when you shut down so if you use Windows one day and Linux the next you have to boot up Windows first and then reboot into Linux so that Windows will unmount its partitions, otherwise Linux can't mount them.
The reason I say reliable is not because I only want sources from one specific side or that say one specific thing. But because there are plenty of sources who are willing to say anything to please a specific party or person which is the exact reason some people are being sued into the ground.
SF is simply too expensive for 10k homeless people (~1% of the population). You could care for a quarter of the homeless population in the US (~145k) for just the shelter-cost of 10k homeless people in SF.

Why should the ones in SF get such special treatment and massive sums of money spent on them over other homeless people? The majority of homeless people in SF aren't from SF, and >30% of the homeless population in SF moved to SF already homeless.

Why should SF residents pay exorbitant amounts of money to house them when it's the most expensive city for housing in the US?

SF already spends > $100 PER month PER resident - ~$300 PER month PER taxpayer on homelessness. The budget has swelled since 2018 - and yet the problem has almost doubled in the same period.

It's almost as if pouring money on the problem doesn't solve it.
Joe Biden (via Hunter) was/is literally doing the thing they tried to impeach Trump over.

I'd say that's related!
Might end up fetching more than that if the project gets shut down.
This is not directly related, but I think Microsoft regrets the commoditization of language editing features via LSP.

In hindsight, editor independent language IDE features driven via a client-server model are such an obvious idea - to the point that I wonder why it took so long for this model to emerge. It makes so much sense to build the IDE features a single time, ideally re-using parts of the compiler infrastructure.

By now a lot language servers exist. They have various levels of quality, and the purpose built solutions like VS or the various Jetbrains products are often markedly superior.

But many of them are more than good enough for a lot of developers, and they allow turning even Vim into a full-featured, powerful editing environment. (Neovim 0.5 has built-in LSP support)

This all started out with VS Code, Typescript, and the LSP specification, and Microsoft deserves a lot of credit for kicking off this trend.

But something that probably started out as a way to popularize VS Code and Typescript has turned into a movement that makes the chosen editor much less crucial and more of a commodity.

This almost certainly wasn't the intended outcome, or at least a side effect that wasn't anticipated.

Hence also the recent steps to counter this trend, like restricting the new Python LSP or this newest .NET drama.

Microsoft earned back a lot of good-will from developers with Typescript, VS Code, .net core, Github, npm, .... Many younger devs have lost the mistrust and disgust that was common in certain spheres not that long ago.

They probably feel confident enough now to shift gears and aim for lock-in and control.
What does this have to do with the topic at hand?

So if one used their middle finger to be selected in an audience to ask a question in the town hall, that is not rude?

Maybe this so-called 'white power' hate gesture should either apply to no-one or to everyone regardless of the context. Choose one.

'Reuters Fact Checkers' are trying very hard to get you to un-see the obvious of an already 'ill-defined' hate symbol that was just used by the president as defined by the ADL.

They share a bank account, Joe had an “office” at the failed business Hunter tried to start, and in his emails – if true, as at least some of them have been cryptographically verified to be – Hunter claims he sends a percent of all his income to his dad, a credible claim given the eye-witness corroboration of a similar communique between financial partners affirming an equity stake in a Chinese venture of “10% for the big guy” – who an eye witness identifies as none other than the incorruptible Scranton Joe himself.

"Yet somehow nearly no one in America is aware of this or concerned about it. I wish I understood why that is."

I can't speak for everyone but in my case it is because I grew up in an impoverished community that had little to no zoning.

I experienced first-hand what the built environment is and the emergent behaviors of people are when there are no rules.

See, you live in a place that is nicely organized and, presumably, zoned and you think if we got rid of the zoning then everything would be just like it is now but with a few more housing units and maybe some delightful mixed light-commercial interspersed and wouldn't that be great!

In reality what you get is a welding shop next to your house. And llamas. And people disconnecting from city sewer because by god they're not paying for that when their home-built septic works just as well. And Grandma died and what do we do with her horse I know we'll keep it in the front yard.

If you had any exposure to anything other than nicely zoned locales you wouldn't romanticize the absence of rules.
I think you are throwing a great deal of water on this, but, it sounds like it could be independently testable, and verifiable. Now, we might need to know more about what make model of phone was in use, as well as apps, provider, etc, to replicate this. However, this could be turned into a test campaign with a test plan, treating this as any SUT. To determine if there is any substance to it, of course.

Given some of the more recent exposures of "Phone always-on behavior", constant telemetry [1], apps violating policy, FB&Google collusion around bid rigging, bypassing privacy laws, and, data being sent to facebook whether or not it was intended to go there, it sounds like it is within the realm of technical possibility, or, that it is occuring in some situations that are not readily apparent, or a bug.

Maybe it isn't occuring too, that is a possibility also.

Given how much of the internet is trying to share data back with FB, Google, Apple, and many others just by looking at Umatrix/Ublock, and a few other privacy apps, there is no doubt that much of the mobile internet is really feeding data back to them all the time. Good luck controlling that on mobile though! And, I am not talking about back-end transactions either..

Transacting in cash isn't as "free" as many people like to think. There are real costs associated with processing, transporting, and securing it that someone has to pay.
Visual Studio's debugger alone makes it worth. It's not that it's the most powerful debugger (not like WinDbg), but it's so polished for most things I would typically do, also mixed callstacks for certain languages, Parallel Stacks and certain other features.

> Without a national or at least comprehensive state-wide solution for homelessness, this will be a difficult problem to solve.

I wish more people realized this. Every city seems to be having people complain about homelessness. The three cities ive lived in in the last 6 years has. Idk why it is on a city of 60,000 people to try to fix homelessness. Especially when a ton are homeless veterans. The national goverment is dumping their problem on places to small and unorganized to deal with it.
Julia White doesn't work at Microsoft anymore - she works at SAP. Or did you mean Julia Liuson ?
For Heraclitus reality was like random pixels on a screen, constantly changing. Parmenides was looking at the same screen far away, from infinity, a gray homogenous screen. Both were right, and the screen exists.
> OP's question appears to invert the burden of proof in assuming that a consensus, even of experts, ought to be believed unless there are compelling reasons not to accept it.

Again, I pose the question, what is a reasonable alternative?

>Asimov seems to be arguing that there are degrees of wrongness, and one can become less wrong by a process of rational error elimination and criticism. How does the mere fact of a consensus have any bearing on this process?

The scientific process IS a process of rational error elimination and criticism. Scientific consensus is the result of the majority of experts in a field using the scientific process to agree on the "least wrong" information possible given the data available at that time. If you claim not to see the bearing on this process, you're being dishonestly obtuse.

> Where is the evidence that a consensus is a good metric for the truth of a matter? Has there been any work done to establish such a correspondence?

I think you have the causal chain backwards; the evidence of a good metric for the truth of a matter is what builds consensus. If the evidence is incompatible with consensus, and it holds up to scrutiny & reproduction, then the consensus changes to match. Either way, the end result is that consensus is an improving approximation to "the truth". If you have a better way of obtaining "the truth", I would be very glad to learn about it.
It's really nobody. That's the sad part. Also, like most Asian cultures, some recipes are kept secret and only passed down in the family, if ever at all. Knowledge like this is a competitive advantage, sometimes even in the same family.
That’s not how it works. Increasing the interest rate will not increase the existing debt cost.

The problem is that we are issuing new debt to pay off the old debt, and that new debt is using the new interest rate.

I worked at the Center for Astrophysics and Space Sciences at UCSD for a time in the early 1990s on the Electron Drift Instrument. I wrote 90% of the code (250KB, or 250 screens, of 32 bit LMI 386 Forth (IIRC), that controlled the entire testing apparatus for the device. This included a stepper motor, channel plate (to detect single electrons; similar tech to night vision devices), and several electron guns. Low level device control. DMA. A rudimentary but usable GUI. Complex floating point math routines. All in Forth. I still have the code.
Yes, but the money isn't generated from that crime. The question is not whether a crime occurred. The question is whether money laundering occurred.
What’s wrong is everything the top comment mentioned. Zoning in the US is an albatross on our GDP, increases wealth inequality and racial segregation, and is forcing the car-centric culture that we currently live in. In the broadest sense, it’s making it close to impossible to modernize our cities and will be a major factor in the US’s fall from being the biggest economy in the world.

If you’re okay with all of that as the price of you getting to live in an eternally quiet neighborhood (that your children will never have a similar opportunity to live in themselves due to zoning-driven real estate prices going far beyond what standard wages can afford), then sure. As long as you acknowledge what consequences your desires have on wider society, then you can say you think the price is worth it or that you don’t really care.
Right, but I'm thoroughly unconvinced we should step in to decide how people consume information, one way or another. The arguments that rely on, "Most people are stupid and can't figure these things out for themselves." are really just riffs on, "We should control what people think."

A world with many changes?

Do we really have to put our finger on exactly why? Maybe it's a million small things. Maybe it is one or two major things. But maybe we'll never know.

The world was VERY different for a year and a half. In that way, any different outcome wouldn't be surprising. Would I have predicted a great resignation? No. Does it surprise me? No.
I spent many years involved in politics at the city level in Santa Cruz. The Homeless Industrial Complex is a thing. There isn’t a desire to make things better as that will lead to lost jobs.

Their insincerity becomes very obvious when you start pushing for accountability - like status reports / reports on progress and effectiveness - when entities get public funds. Another fun one is asking for a reduction in overlap when you have 2, 3, and 4 entities doing the same thing and all of them want public funds.
