From the site the baseline is very clearly stated:

What is the Yearly Average Temperature Anomaly?

It is the difference between the average yearly global surface temperature and its pre-industrial baseline. The pre-industrial baseline is calculated as the average temperature from 1850 till 1900. The value for the current year is actually the average for the last 12 months, for example in June we include values since the previous July.

I really don't understand what your issue is with the terminology. Are you suggesting there is no change from the norm? Propaganda as in there is a political agenda to presenting this data? Would that be that the data is wrong, if so on what basis? Or that the data is irrelevant and it is being presented as relevant?

Global temperature changes seems very relevant to me. This site is also just presenting data, the language is pretty neutral and in line with the common use of anomaly ("something that deviates from what is standard, normal, or expected") given the baseline they have stated, as well as the wikipedia article you link. The main issue I see from the wikipedia article is that these are not "standardised anomalies" - but the site is not claiming to provide these.

If your argument were that they should provide more data I could see that, although it's marked as version 0.1 so perhaps that's a bit harsh. If it's just that they're using the wrong word, then that's not very compelling to me.

There is a Swedish expression: nobody is named, and nobody is forgotten.

Usually you hear it in a workplace setting when people (often, a subset of the correct group) are being acknowleged for an acheivement of some kind.

As soon as you try to enumerate all of those groups you will undoubtedly forget someone, who will then take offense at the omission. So the saying is a reminder to not single out anyone.

Ownership of an NFT is, in general,, ownership of the token, no more, no less.

The creator of the artwork could legally assign rights to the tokenholder. But that would be a special case, and that is extra.

Anyone is free to give privileges to tokenholders of specific contract that they recognize as authentic, but that is not the same as ownership of the artwork.
Does being an “antelope” somehow justify being torn apart and eaten by a lion? Yeah actually, it does because lions eat antelopes and humans eat lobsters. Nature doesn’t owe any being an existence devoid of suffering.
Mixins play nicely with Common Lisp's method combinations, as one can attach a little bit of behavior to each mixin then use MC to weave them together. For example: suppose we want to build classes for the nodes of an abstract syntax tree. We create a mixin for each child slot, and produce a node class by subclassing from the appropriate child slot classes. A traversal function on ASTs assembles traversal methods for these mixin classes using the PROGN method combination.

Oooh this is fantastic! I knew about optical TB/type C cables (with the downside they don't provide power but that can easily be worked around by using a self powered TB dock at the remote side) but I never thought to look for active optical DP cables! The price isn't even bad given the lengths - $90 for a 20 meter HBR3 cable is pretty reasonable really. Thanks!

I don't think I implied there should be a mandate not to use cookies. I simply don't think users should be harassed with fake security alerts for clearing them.

It's inaccurate to assume that clearing cookies on exit means that users need an email or notification along the lines of "Security Alert! An unrecognized device tried to access your account!"

All major browsers allow you to clear cookies. Advanced users are more likely to clear cookies on a regular basis. Twitter almost certainly knows this. In light of that, their behavior seems designed to induce people to allow Twitter cookies to persist rather than merely "Allow for session"

Even in the non profit sector things get tricky. I have since changed my outlook into not causing net negative outcomes on the world. Sometimes you get lucky and can help people, sometimes you get to just make something pleasant and convenient. Sometimes you entertain.

Chasing that feeling like you're changing the world for the better is IMO a fools errand. Instead chase something you don't hate yourself for building.
How is this different than a method pointer, Action<T>, Runnable etc? Maybe I don't understand what you're suggesting. Is there something more to it than assigning a method to a variable and calling it as if it was a plain variable?
A quick search shows a lot of sites saying it takes about 3 minutes for death, though I don't know what the original source is. But that makes sense to me. I mean, how would boiling water cause instant death? Do you think if you were dunked in boiling water you would instantly die? Granted we don't have the same physiology as lobsters, but, what exactly is the physical mechanism that would cause instant death from 100°C water?

I don't know if using exports is anywhere near the industry totals.

According to NOAA, in regards to US totals[1]:

"Overall, the highest value U.S. commercial species were salmon ($688 million), crabs ($610 million), lobsters ($594 million), shrimp ($531 million), scallops ($512 million), and Alaska pollock ($413 million)."

I don't know about crabs but there's something called "high pressure lobster" where the animal is killed very swiftly through very high pressure soon on the boat. While I am not sure about this is being more humane than throwing it in boiling water (cf. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29301843) there's also the question of keeping lobsters alive for a long time all the way from catch through the market while keeping their claws tied etc.

My favorite example of this is something I saw in a local bicycle planning study. A 4 lane stretch about 6 blocks long was converted to 2 lanes with parking and wider sidewalks (with the idea that people will naturally drive a bit slower with less of the street devoted to traffic). Someone was livid that it had happened, ranting about delays at the light on one end of the stretch. At busy times, the typical wait at the light is for the green (so not even a full cycle). Very occasionally a couple of cars don't make the busiest left on the first green.

Strong agreement here.

A mental model is a model you hold in your mind of how something works, and informs you of its usage, how it can fail, and how to fix it when it does. Mental models are about specific systems and are built over time as you interact with the system; it may not be a perfect representation of the internals but as a model it's good enough to use the thing.

A simple example might be turning the wheel of a car in order to turn the vehicle. How far can you turn it? How fast do you need to turn it to make a given turn? How fast can you be going / how much do you have to slow down to make the turn safely? How about keeping going straight on the road, is holding the wheel still sufficient? When making a turn, do the wheels in the back of the vehicle follow the same tracks as the front wheels?

Great points. Most people don’t understand the dangers of deer.

I grew up in a rural area of New York - from age 16-20, I hit or was hit by 5 deer in vehicles, including one that jumped off an embankment and landed on and went through my roof.

That wasn’t a uniquely unlucky track record either. If I recall correctly NY State Troopers were involved in ~500 collisions with deer annually at that time (mid 90s)
Here's three:

1) "All things are ready, if our minds be so." - Shakespeare

2. Holon para ta moria (ὁλον παρα τα μορια). From Aristotle's Metaphysics. The whole is something beyond the parts. Commonly mistranslated as "the whole is greater than the sum of the parts" -- which misses the point completely. Mathematical understanding and metaphor is only one type of thinking, one way to understand a complete system. Valuable, for sure, but incomplete. The whole system -- e.g. a human, a team, an entrepreneurial opportunity with all its moving parts -- in its full expression and action, is beyond mathematics. Only your whole human mind can hope to comprehend it.

3) Companies tend to die -- but people tend to survive. People matter infinitely more. The most valuable thing of all is human relationships.
We have lots of slow and calm streets in American suburbia, and we love them that way. We value this calm so much that we refuse to admit shopping or even multi-family housing to them, for fear of disturbing it. These uses have to go somewhere, so they go where there is no presumption of an entitlement to low traffic, and that’s the road.

The businesses hardly complain; they love to be where the greatest numbers of eyeballs and potential impulse shoppers are going by.

Maybe you could start with a strong street vs. road discipline, but I would predict that within 40 years any American polity will surely break it, and the stroad will re-emerge.
“The efficiency paradox”[0], saw a TEDx talk as part of agile training, and this really hammered in the fact that it’s more important to get stuff done than to be busy, or “efficient” with your time. If you focus on finishing a few things you’ll get more done than if you make sure you’re busy with something all the time.

This really has changed how I approach a lot of things in my everyday life, both inside and outside of work. Simple things like doing a load of washing here and there, and getting it done rather than trying to do a massive amount on the weekend, or washing some dishes as they come up rather than being efficient and washing all of them at the same time. In a work context, I guess it is more about not committing to too much work in a sprint, and ensuring there’s a bit of slack time so that multiple people can work on any items that get stuck, take more time than expected or similar. Developers helping out with testing where needed, ensuring quick code reviews, some extra pair programming and so on.

Clojure is the most practically expressive language I've ever had the pleasure of working with. For some reason the example that immediately comes to mind is how you can use a collection as an accesser for itself, so ({:a 2 :b 3} :a) returns 2. Just a neat bit of syntactic sugar, but now if 'blacklist' is a set, you can just do (remove blacklist guests) to remove everything in blacklist from guests. There's a hundred little things like that which combine to make it a really fun and concise language to work with.

I bet they just found a bunch of catalytic converter materials at the drug "lab" and jumped to conclusions. They are just having addicts steal the cats to pay for the drugs.
How about people just don't steal? A thief deprives somebody else of opportunities. If somebody steals your catalytic converter and you need to be on time for a job you're going to be screwed at the job and you will have to replace that stolen property.

I don't understand how people can just handwave away this stuff. I would genuinely rather have my arm broken than my bike/phone stolen. My arm will heal in a few weeks, but my bike won't.
Winner. This is one way to cut through the Gordion knot of this endless debate. I'll be calling them octopuppers henceforth.
You make it sound like everyone has complete knowledge of a thief's intent, and that the motivation for shooting them is retribution rather than self defense.

If a thief breaks into someone else's home in the middle of the night, they should have a healthy fear of being shot to death. If the homeowner believes their life is in immediate danger, it seems to me like they are well within their moral and legal right to incapacitate the intruder with a firearm. There's no judgement involved, only reaction under fear of imminent violence. If the thief dies, it was due to their own poor decisions.

Likewise, if the homeowner catches a thief jumping out of a window with their beanie baby collection, it would be unreasonable for the homeowner to take some shots at the thief just to try to injure them, and would probably be a chargeable felony. If the thief died, it would probably be deemed a homicide.

> To forcibly deprive them of their property is the removal of some portion of their life.

This portion can be made whole again by replacing the property, either through insurance, through restorative judgements against the perpetrator, or various other means.

Taking a life is final.

I’ve worked on everything from back end enterprise apps used by day traders to building information retrieval systems for kiosks at airports to embedded software running on a particular eink device.

Everything was directly meaningful to me, insofar as it provided someone value, gave me money for sustenance, and/or was something I was personally extremely interested in.

Meaningful is a relative concept, and I sincerely hope people in this thread don’t fall in a trap of comparing what they’re doing so what others are or are not doing.
I used to work in the art auction world. Christie's and Sotheby's will sell anything that there is a market for, especially if it burnishes their brand and relevance.
The media narrative against Amazon is not entirely accurate, they pay well above median for logistics roles and have better conditions. I reckon behind closed doors that the major complaint against them in the publishing industry is that they don't buy display and print advertising, and there is an effort to punish them for it vis-a-vis the coordinated attack on Google during the Google News blackmail era.

And this whole "pissing in bottles" thing is more an indictment of Americas lack of public toilets and abandonment of the public realm in general. Most civilized countries have infrastructure to meet basal human needs.
It's hard to have this discussion until we know what the features are.

If it's hardware that implements a (non intel) patent and you have to pay to use it, but not everyone would want the feature, seems reasonable to let those who want it pay for it. Like MPEG-2 support on (early?) raspberry pis.

If it's something frivalous, it's frivalous.

I'm a type 1 diabetic; I use OpenAPS, an open-source DIY system that does this, and have made some code contributions to it.

So what this article is talking about is, basically, taking the thing DIYers are already doing, and making a more foolproof, FDA-approval-grade version. And I'm sure they're massively better in terms of how fiddly they are to set up and get working, but the end result is actually worse; they wind up not including features like autotune (which auto-adjusts basals and carb ratio based on historical data), because there's less risk of liability if they make doctors do the tuning, even if the doctor is only looking at the patient's data once every six months and is doing a poor by-eye approximation of what the algorithm does.

You might want to look at https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_fatal_bear_attacks_in_... then. Note that the bear article is limited by region and only to fatal attacks because a list of broad in scope as the wolf attacks article would be never-ending.

Lots of predators are far more dangerous to people than wolves but wolves provoke a visceral reaction because they've been demonized in a way bears, etc haven't.

Modern concrete itself is really good. The problem is with all the steel rotting in reinforced concrete.
That’s not a half sphere. Pure half sphere structures are extremely rare as they waste a lot of space and building materials. Your better off using more than half a sphere so the walls curve in slightly at the base. You get more useable internal volume from a slightly smaller exterior footprint and use less building materials. The next obvious improvement is to use a dome on top of a cylinder which again improves useable space over a half sphere and is a fairly common design as seen with silos and observatories etc.

The only way a half sphere works out well is if your dealing with some form of pressure dome. Either using internal pressure to support weight, or in the case of a building underwater/Moon/Mars dealing with very high pressure differences.

To be very clear, Confluent doesn't give _their_ product away for free. Confluent Platform has many differing features to Apache Kafka that never make it into upstream.

E.g., Confluent Replicator vs. Mirror Maker 2, Confluent Platform's tiered storage has been available for quite some time (right now a bunch of people from AirBnB are doing a stellar job bringing tiered storage to FOSS Kafka, I'm hoping 3.1 or 3.2).

Actually, easiest thing to do to see the differences is grep all the subpages of this link for properties that start with "confluent":
