The whole point of stigmatization is that it gets people to act responsibly without the heavy-handed intervention of the criminal justice system.

For it to work, it must engender some emotions these people would rather avoid. People saying that they’d rather not be stigmatized is excellent proof that it does.

You’ve cleverly avoided the comparisons usually made, i. e. to racism and anti-semitism. But obesity strikes me as somewhat similar, in that it is often not within the possibilities of the individual to change it. I guarantee you would make a fortune if you could heal obesity with a couple of shots. Alcohol gets you plenty of stigmatization if you do in ways society doesn’t approve, extreme sports are usually less dangerous than you’d think, or have a tendency to just kill your, which is cheap. And from what I understand, women get grief from various factions when they have children early, late, never, with the wrong man, in the hands of a nanny, at the workplace, on a leash, or free-ranging.
Is it physically downstream on another part though? It's been a while since I've been under a car but I remember seeing what I thought was the O2 sensor, and it was part of the whole catalytic converter assembly. If it comes as part of the same assembly, it would be easy enough for new ones to include a fake O2 sensor.
It depends on what sort of games you will be playing. For some simulation and related games such as Factorio and the like the CPU can make a large difference.

That's funny, I usually find a common source of unnecessary complexity is people trying way too hard to de-duplicate everything. Which has a tendency to causes abstractions that are more cognitively and technically expensive than the code they replaced... and once enough layers accreted, I'm pretty sure they take up more space.
“Woke” has entered a subcategory of the lexicon where it is so transparently used to rile straw man debates that any time its used anymore, I instantly become disinterested in the topic. Similar words include “snowflake” and “safe zone”

Good. Shuffling albums should perhaps be possible but it shouldn’t be a front an center feature. The software shouldn’t give the impression that shuffling or not is a 50/50 call, but rather a rarely used feature.

It’s like how authors put their chapters in order in print. If you want to read the chapters out of order you can, but the book gives a very strong indication of what the author’s intended order is.

-I used to visit inmates at a prison nearby (I've since moved too far away for it to be feasible to go on a regular basis)

During my first visit, the guy I spent a couple of hours chatting with suggested I never, ever remove the visitor's parking pass from my car - as 'even speed freaks' (in his words) would be reluctant to break into the car of someone on the visitor's service.

While one data point is hardly evidence, there was a number of smash-and-grabs from curb parked cars on my street - my car was indeed untouched. (Which, of course, might as well be because I never ever leave any visible valuables inside...)
The runtime team certainly looks at discrepancies where C# and F# generate different IL that should still run about the same when JIT-compiled. So while C# is the main focus (also since the runtime libraries are written in C#), F# is not forgotten and benefits from a lot of those improvements as well.
Just because it's not persistent and not categorized as serious it doesn't mean that it's not unusual for young people and it's not a side effect.

As you get older you accept that sickness and pain is a sad part of life, but young people aren't used to even small amount of sickness.

Your thinking just emphasises not having empathy to people being afraid of even small amount of pain.

Also again you write mRNA and not emphatize with people who get AstraZeneca vaccine which has higher side effects. We have to acknowledge these things and be more open about having a tradeoff.
> But why can’t we conserve wolves just because?

Because that isn't how [highly polarized] democracies work. The fact that environmentalists are aghast is a bonus for those in favor of wolf culls. But, even those politicians think with their wallets. Wolves aren't going to get out the vote. In reality, this is going to come down to how politicians personally feel about wolves, and how persuasive rancher, livestock insurance and car insurance lobbies are in making their respective cases.
I’m glad I’m not the only person who thought this. Do we think Da Vinci intended the Mona Lisa be presented in a museum, behind glass and a rope? If I were to commission and buy art and hang it in my bathroom, the artist can voice their preference for me not to, but at that point it isn’t their call. Albums can be played arbitrarily, it’s just a lot easier to do that digitally than changing out vinyl.
"Fully 25 percent of deaths were among vaccinated people, the county reported. How can this be? If the vaccines are so effective that they reduce mortality 42 times over, how could the vaccinated account for such a large proportion of the deaths?"

Someone needs to learn statistics there. The 25% number is useless without knowing what rate of the general population is vaccinated. If 100% are vaccinated, all deaths would be vaccinated too. If, say, 50% of the population are vaccinated, but only 25% of covid deaths are vaccinated people, the vaccine is in fact quite effective in reducing death in hospitalized covid cases[¹] — by a factor of 3.

[¹] assuming they would mirror the vaccination rate, which they don't.
The biggest risk of the GPL is in fact not companies but to you as a creator. If you plan on commercializing your work in any capacity, accepting contributions under the GPL will be the end of that. Given the murky laws around copyright reassignment getting contributions in under a more liberal license so you retain extra rights yourself is tricky.

There are many projects which learned after a few years that their choice of license backfired on them.
> But didn't California just move in the exact opposite direction on this particular point?

From my reading, Cali HSC 120290 criminalizes knowingly transmitting any STD, which fits the bill for stigmatization. I'm guessing your point is it seems like transmitting any STD is a misdemeanor now, whereas in the past, only HIV would be tagged — with a felony, specifically. Right?

I'd venture that it's an adjustment with the times, specifically that HIV is no longer a death sentence especially as drugs for HIV come upon patent expiration in ~6 years time.

Still a stigma, and it still impairs a person's ability to have a normal romantic life, but it's no longer murder-adjacent.
This post was hard deleted from the front page minutes ago. I'm submitting it again because it's thoughtful.
It is really weird. I use noscript so the cards were spaced out weird but still readable. Then I saw that the story was basically repeated at the end of the page. So I turned on javascript to see if that was why. nope. spacing issues are fixed but it was still weird. So i opened it in chrome without any adblock and it still was weird. So I clicked on another of their stories and the layout was different. I even thought maybe the submitter had submitted some mobile version of the site so I searched for the story on the site to see if another version would come up and nope. Still weird looking.
We're starting to see changes in vehicle design to address this but typically it is only during a major model redesign rather than between model years.

The popular solution, that is almost free, is simply moving the catalytic converter from mid-tailpipe to directly connected to the engine block. Essentially the CC is surrounded by the engine block itself on all sides, and you have to disassemble the entire engine from above to get to it.

But you're talking about 4~ years between redesigns and that doesn't address any of the vehicles already sold/tens of years of old designs.
There’s a piece of me that feels a bit wrong about this. When I’m listening to the album I want to experience it my way. Maybe I want to shuffle albums, maybe not. I don’t think that artist freedom to order tracks is worth more than my freedom to shuffle them.

> Many people own this land, what’s the plan, take their ancestral home?

You must be trolling right? You're aware of whose ancestral lands those are, aren't you.

Anyway, even if I'm not an advocate of GP's idea, you don't have to decide where people live: remote areas' networks (energy, water, telco, roads) etc. are heavily subsidized by people living in denser areas, shutting down these networks would be pretty effective without taking anything from anyone. (And this is a pretty good illustration of why the libertarian NAP is completely pointless)
Your assumption lines up with the general PC gaming advice.

There are a few games that do strongly benefit from a better CPU, but those are the exception, and they still have significant dismissing returns
That's not the definition of greed.
That's a real comfort to the people I know in Montana who died of the virus.
I lied to my doctor to an extent, and he lied to the insurance company to an extent.

All you have to do is ask a doctor "Please don't put any of this in a file until I have insurance next week". It doesn't mean anything to him to add the dates later. It's in his best interest, otherwise he won't get the cheddar.
removing the catalytic converter essentially renders your muffler useless since it's located in the middle of the exhaust pipe [0]. therefore removing the cat. converter will make your car incredibly loud and virtually impossible to go unrecognized.

Are all vaccinated getting tested in Züri hospitals? How many hospitalized COVID-19 cases have severe acute respiratory symptoms? Age breakdown? Health status? Population representative data? Historic data on hospital capacity?
Actually, there is. The new-daily-cases-per-capita rate for unvaccinated people is at least 6x the rate of vaccinated people, per the most recent data in this NYT analysis [0]. And the reduction was observed for Pfizer, Moderna, and J&J vaccines.

Not sure the sarcastic comment is warranted, or really adds anything to the conversation.
It looks fun when uploader is "virtually assigned" to the art pieces and motivated by "virtual money" from selling art, spending time in this platform.

Registered and look forward to seeing this grow.
Honest question: is there a better service with a similarly broad catalog? When I first signed up for a streaming service several years ago I went with Deezer since it seemed competitive and I knew Spotify was the evil empire. But bugs and a smaller catalog forced me to jump ship.

I really wish it were possible to pay for a separate player/discovery app, in addition to my Spotify subscription, that had access to the Spotify catalog.
Although some people might use "wokeness" as a strawman, it is anything but. Not sure why this makes you so mad. Ignoring it doesn't make the problem go away.
If you just skim the words and look at the cartoons then yeah, feels pretty Buzzfeed-ish.

But if you give it a deep read there’s a lot of good advice in there. Maybe not so relevant to someone like myself, who’s 35 and well comfortable with his introverted habits. But if I’d read this article at 22 it would have been highly beneficial.
Thanks, I couldn't guess the right word/spelling from context, and the dictionary didn't help me.
Immediately before that: The Pfizer BioNTech vaccine against COVID-19 has an efficacy of 95% against symptomatic SARS-CoV-2 infection.

And, of course, it’s months old.

Let me ask you: you know perfectly well that you are misrepresenting this report. I can see how that might work to convince the gullible. But how have you not noticed how entirely corrupt your undertaking is, and changed your opinion? Why aren’t the two sides of your brain looking at each other, going “are we the baddies?”

edit: nevermind, just noticed it’s a cryptobro. The two halves are busy scamming each other with NFTs
It was a pretty well written article, and you might find you agree with some of it if you give it a read.

You’re right that “woke” can mean many things to many people, to the author, it refers to the “diversity/history of oppression” classes she took at her university.

Ultimately, one of the things the article advocates for is having more thoughtful, well intentioned reactions to the foibles of others, rather than assuming bad intent.
It was however very useful for me when I learned the labels ~10 years ago. Before that, one was either outgoing or shy. I felt like neither.

Suddenly there was a new axis as well, explaining what I felt. And news articles started popping up, people talking about the concept etc. Made it much easier being an introvert.
Just a note for people who were a bit confused by the comment:

> If big corporations can buy up smaller companies, then why can’t big cities buy up small towns?

Because cities aren't property, so there is nothing to buy. In the US, they can merge, if the
citizens of each agree to terms that are permissible in law and the relevant outside regulators are satisfied (e.g., currently in California, the county Local Agency Formation Commission, if the two are in the same county; if they are in neighboring counties, the county and state governments become involved.) It even happens sometimes.

But, mostly, people don't want to dilute their vote in local government; so they are more likely to for some kind of Joint Powers Authority for shared purposes than to merge, unless one existing local government is completely nonviable.

> So why don’t big cities like New York City buy up some of these small towns, help move the people, give them priority (affordable / subsidized) housing, help them find jobs and invite them to integrate with a larger community?

Big cities don't have unlimited budgets, and have enough problems supporting their own indigent populations. Why, even if there weren't any administrative barriers, would they literally pay their money to get a giant additional set of problems, and put a whole new indigent population ahead of local citizens in need, and drive up local costs with demand pressure, making the local poor even worse off?

> Wouldn’t it be a positive for everyone involved?

No.

> People earning minimum wage in a small town with no future now have much bigger and better opportunities and choices in a big city

Well, they'd be unemployed in a vig city competing in a market with a influx of unemployment new locals as well as all the people already competing for local jobs, in a much more expensive to live place. This is...not an improvement.

> Small town folks who get moved to a big cities will be exposed to a much larger culture

Well, they'll be physically proximate to it in the shelters for which they are given priority. But I’m not sure big city shelter residents are typically exposed to much culture, and given the expenses of the big city, getting out of shelters may be difficult.

> The small towns are demolished and are turned back into what they were 100+ years ago fixing the environment: forests, swamps or land given back to the Aboriginals

So, if the big city buyout is good for everyone, we are going to exclude the indigenous population because fuck them, right?

But, sure, if this is a method for Land Back, indigenous people might be the one winners from it.

> No more re-building homes in these tornado / flooded / hurricane damaged small towns

A number of big cities are sites of recurrent natural disasters which require regular repair and revuildingt. It’s not like therr are no population centers in hurricane / tornado / earthquake / flooding areas.

I’ll notice that you don't even suggest any benefits for the big city residents that are supposed to pay for the buyouts and then pay again by being deprioritized for local services in your “good for everyone” scenario.
I'm lucky enough to live in a small city in the midwest so I own a house with an attached garage like all the houses in my subdivision. However, I always joke that my neighbors probably think I'm weird because I park my car inside my garage instead of in the driveway. If it really does only take less than a minute to remove the catalytic converters then someone could make a mint going up and down my street.

People here seem very interested in questions about payload G-forces and basic functioning, but to me, non of those matter. Even if you assume 100% of this works, it has no place in the market.

A Starship can launch 150 tons to Orbit, fully reusable.

Now ask yourself, if SpinLaunch even if you assume the largest possible ground station can not launch more then a few 100kg to Orbit and still requires a Upper Stage rocket that has to be thrown away. How could it possibly be cheaper?

So lets assume an absurdly large SpinLaunch system that can get 500kg to Orbit. You still need 300 launches to match what Starship can do in a single afternoon. In a more practical situation its more like 800 launches to match a single Starship.

Now try to think a gigantic stack of 300 SpinLaunch upper stage rockets that would be thrown away including 300 rocket engines, 300 avonics systems and so on. Compared to a Starship that simply lands and is fully reusable.

Not to mention that a chemical rocket is far more flexible in regards to orbit and far more versatile in possible payloads.

At best it can compete for a very small part of the small rocket launch business. But even then, a lot of the time dedicated launches are used for non-standard orbit and SpinLaunch has far less flexibility then a normal rocket.

I really see no way this makes much sense.
My take on intelligence over the past 20y has been it is high quality / efficient search of immense state spaces.

"Solving intelligence" as a famous corporation motto, might just be improving state-space search.

Humans are incredible at state space search, it's obvious as soon as you consider the potential data pointsnof any problem we face every day, from washing dishes to designing algorithms.
Considering that lawmakers in Texas and other places have recently been trying to make it legal for car drivers to mow down pedestrian protesters, I don't think they are worried about the political ramifications of people killing petty thieves, or rather they believe such ramifications will play to their advantage rather than disadvantage.
For Tesla FSD you can pay a lump sum to unlock it permanently, or you can pay a monthly fee. When I did the math I recall it would take ~4.5 years to equal the lump sum, although they say to expect price increases on the monthly plan.

Tesla also has a monthly fee to unlock rear heated seats in the Model 3.
Couldn't find it at a glance, does the data included vaccinated people? If so it's not surprising mortality is lower than previously reported (because there are more vaccinated people than in the past).
2. Deciding where people can live is extremely tyrannical. Many people own this land, what’s the plan, take their ancestral home? That didn’t work out well any time in history.

We are already deciding where people can live. It's called zoning, and zoning laws restrict how we can build our homes, where we live, and what transportation options we can use.

My proposal seem tyrannical, yes, but I paired it with improving human welfare in the land we didn't cede to nature, and probably more freedom to build and live overall.
Isn't it strange that the people who claim they don't want to have children for fear of economic hardship or climate change never take the time to criticize their parents for not doing the same?
Good luck! I recommend building up a library of helper functions; it will save you a lot of typing. Here's mine: https://github.com/lukechampine/advent/blob/master/utils/uti...
When people cite money as a reason for not having children, they just usually just don't want children, but don't want to admit it.

The fact is there has never been a better time in human history to raise children. People talk about climate change, but back in the 50's it wasn't any better -- we were in the midst of a nuclear standoff that could have gone apocalyptic at any second. Before that, there was a world war, and another one before that, and so on.

In prior centuries anywhere from one quarter to one half of all kids born wouldn't make it to the first birthday.

Raising kids is hard, even now, but it's still easier than it's ever been.

People are free to have children or not have children, but let's be honest about why.
I still remember a DHTML folder tree view, it was quite popular.
> the vaccine is in fact quite effective in reducing death in hospitalized covid cases

No one in this thread, including me and the article I linked, is arguing otherwise.
COM+ was basically Distributed COM, and was available for years before .NET. .NET Framework was implemented built on existing Win32 and COM/COM+ calls though, which is why you might see that.
Sure, whatever. Shit doesn't happen in socialized countries. The only libertarian countries that ever exist are that short vacuum of power when a banana republic dictator fails and the new warlords haven't chosen a new dictator. But yeah, sure, can't criticize something that doesn't exist. Good argument strategy.
I personally don’t like to have kids because the thought of responsibilities that comes with having kids scares the hell out of me

I already have enough responsibilities in my life, with my work etc and I don’t want to worry further by having kids

Even before having kids you have to take care of your pregnant wife, after delivering you have to take care of the kids, when they are old you have to worry about their education marriage and so on

It’s just too much. I don’t have any kids at the moment but the thought just makes me feel like I’m better off getting a divorce
