I don't have to imagine that.

Also, I 100% agree with the people who don't believe it's wrong. I'm very happy to be circumsized and am glad my parents got it done while I was young.
> people never musicalize conversational speech

I found this assertion confusing. Speech in say, English (just to narrow it down), is musical inherently. The pitch and rhythm of a speaking voice, especially how they change while an individual is speaking, is meaningful meta-information about what is being said, and how the speaker feels about it, or what they mean by what they say.

We _absolutely_ use the music of everyday speech to create emphasis, for example, and in many other ways. Actors use pitch and rhythm when speaking to convey emotions. It is often the musical content of speech that makes or breaks the performance. Mismatching speech melodies with the dialog sounds all wrong.

I dunno, 10 years or so ago I wrote a whole MA thesis on this exact subject. It's long enough ago (and I've not stayed in the field I was in) that I've long forgotten many of the sources, but there is plenty of stuff out there that deals with speech and music.

To veer off into pure opinion: I definitely think music gains some of its emotional impact by virtue of its relationship to speech, given that we can interpret so much from the music of speech itself, and if that kind of metadata is presented _independently_ of natural speech, there's often something pleasing or interesting about about that. We also are super good at listening for other meaningful sounds though, like things that might kill us.

My two cents is that music, like other art and things like sports or games, leverages senses, instincts, and skills that evolved initially for other purposes, and uses them recreationally, playfully. To varying degrees, humans seem to like stimulating and playing with their senses in different ways.

I'm not convinced that the attempt to explain it the way the author does is worthwhile. Parts of it ring true and parts of it (like the role of discerning truth and the claim that people don't musicalize their speech) I think are off track, and maybe also constrained by a far too limited perspective of what music is in the first place.
> Why did he leave, and then come back? If it was so horrible?

The article said he was running out of money.

A screw fell to the ground

I am throwing this out here, and I don't mean to offend, but raw feedback may be useful to you: I think your own logo looks terrible. Both the pictogram and the font. And the favicon. The animation of the logo in the video is great though.

Sorry, maybe I am the only one who thinks this, but it clearly has an impact on how I rate your expertise...

Your customer's logos look nice though...
Sounds fair

Some might accuse me of wanting to create an echo chamber but I do want to see Twitter filtering out the crazies and the extremists. My own personal biases would rather Twitter be filled with Marxist coffee shop revolutionaries than the Ben Shapiro’s of the world.
I don't want to remove it! But even if you had just said what you said here, the comment would already have been less shallow:

this article makes grand claims about how the brain works that are not backed up by any experiment or reference; it's reducing an extremely complex phenomenon - music and subjective experience of music - to a simple cognitive processing and meaning-making framework

The difference is here you say something a bit more specific about the content and topic of the article, whereas the GP comment didn't. Also, the style of what you wrote here is more conversational. The GP comment felt more like a pedantic putdown to me, although admittedly that is more of an interpretation.
I have a 2016 model Vizio that came with a very simple remote without a menu button, expecting you to use a mobile app for all settings. They made a more complete remote available 18 months later as a separate purchase. If you didn't buy the remote you could get softlocked not being able to navigate away from the Smartcast channel.

While the remote does have a menu button, many settings continue to be available only via the mobile app.
Proof of Authority might be better than staking. There are some interesting winner take all like properties in both systems. One is easier to regulate for the broader good when things go awry.
It's hard to define what 'reproduction' is. I think in lot's of definitions this would fit. Also aren't we basically the same? (i.e. a collection of mindless cells, doing their thing, leading to the effect of human reproduction?)
Added to the readme but here is a demo https://codesandbox.io/s/flow-field-demo-kkzmg
So that does make sense, for sure, though my thinking was about how once it's connected to your home WiFi surely your phone is too and is less range limited.

But in terms of involving installing an app on your phone to emulate a remote, both are the same so it's no different. At least it's for more than just to configure it, mandating a connection to a phone you may or may not have seems like a stretch. At least by making it possible to use your BT for a remote you're expanding the features rather than breaking them.
I’d definitely want to see all the code and utilities created over the years as a result of the Human Genome Project as part of that, as well as everything created since. Would prove invaluable in diagnosing new diseases and figuring out cures, tracking evolutionary drift, etc.
The pilot clearly has great reflexes. If the rain cover really did get stuck then it is the strangest indictment of such an expensive plane that doesn’t even have a pre-takeoff warning system.
Yeah, that's a great idea. We want to add previews soon. Right now, it's a human using our internal tools. We're making a lot of progress towards generating it with software, but aren't there yet.
"Browsers should be simple enough to be implemented by a single person in a week."

They are. It all depends on who defines what a "browser" is and what it can do.

The browser I use as a "daily driver" is a 1.3M static binary. It is 5.7M of C code, including graphics stuff I do not utilise. It compiles in under a minute on a low-end computer.

This browser allows me to "browse" hypertext. It displays HTML tables beautifully in textmode. I can download files. I can save HTML as formatted text. It supports FTP. The program has various settings for cache size, character set and so forth. I can script the browser using tmux.

This browser is all I really need.^1 I read HTML then decide if I want to download or save something. Simple. What else is there, really. When I want to run programs I do not do that using this browser. I have separate compilers and interpeters for that. When I want to listen to audio or watch video, I do not try to listen or watch using this browser. I have separate programs for that. And so on. I do not try to live inside a single pogram. In every case of a non HTML-reading/saving or www/ftp browsing task, the separate programs do a better job than the browser could. If this sounds something like the "UNIX principle" maybe that is not a coincidence.

Sure, we can take each of those individual programs and integrate them into a single program, and still call it a "browser" but why would anyone want to do that.^2 What is that concept in programming called "separation of concerns". Someone once called it "an ordering of one's thoughts". When people use browsers written by web advertising-supported organisations, then the "organisation of thoughts" is going to revolve around advertising (requisite tracking and personal data/metadata collection) and how to integrate it into the browser. When I use the text-only browser I choose, the ordering of thoughts is quite different. I see no advertising. Ever. I still consume the same amount of "content", maybe even more because this 1.3M browser is quite fast.

1. Major corporations operating on the web today, e.g., banks, can obviously force people to use certain browsers for business and important personal matters. For recreational web use, however, people can choose any browser.

2. The answer is not "For everyone's convenience and free enjoyment." That is why we have people trying to "un-google".
Being tough and self reliant is great. Those qualities are not abrogated in the slightest by being able to talk with others about your internal experience. You can help yourself by doing so and also help those around you in the process.

The goal is not to be immune to stress and trauma. That’s not really a thing. The goal is to be able to deal effectively with adversity and overcome it. Part of being able to do that is acknowledging that you’re not a robot and employing appropriate strategies. Discussing these things with people that share common ground with you is an effective release mechanism. Releasing pressure during downtime enables mental toughness and self reliance in critical moments.
would it? rosetta is a jit translator isn't it? how would it know to translate the instructions that are being generated on the fly interactively? unless there's hardware support in the m1 for translation or some other interrupt that gets triggered to do translation on the fly...
Not really - it's pretty easy to add encryption on top of a channel as long as both folks are using a client that would support it.
>And I like to just point out that implying that it's just him is both humiliating and toxic.

You made an assertion about "most men" and then called another person's contradicting view "humiliating and toxic". You are not providing any sort of evidence to support your point through some objective measurement either, you're simply extrapolating your experience onto the majority of men. How is that not humiliating and toxic by your own logic?
From the perspective of a straight white man who constantly deals with severe mental health issues, I don't want some kind of space or forum to have my issues heard.

I recognise that my thought process that leads me to conclude that probably falls into the category of "toxic masculinity", but my issues are my own, and, regardless of whether or not I am in a "space" that allows for me to share my feelings, I personally feel that offloading your issues onto people who aren't trained professionals is selfish and can be harmful.

From my perspective, what men need is to be able to destigmatize seeking professional help for mental issues.
It can't. Which is sort of the point of my comment. If it could I'd have no problem with this feature.
I added an example to the readme but generally speaking this framework is pretty agnostic and you can use the x, y coordinates in each line with any library
Like you, I have never desired a space/time to just "let it all out" emotionally.

That being said, there are times I want to really dig deep on a specific thing that is troubling me and I usually just rely on a small cadre of confidants when that happens. And, stereotypically enough, those confidants are all men and we end up "working the problem" rather quickly after the initial exchange of describing how I feel. This, I'm told, is the exact opposite of how you're supposed to listen to someone's problems.

However I know that my personal preference is not universal and doing the 'listen and refrain from offering suggestions' approach is much more comforting for most people.

For xenobots to be useful, the underlying cell behaviour needs to be better understood and controlled. Their research appears interesting if you are a computer scientist or physicist. But for practical applications and applied biotechnology what they are doing is an curious gimmick at best. If they can perfect their understanding, then they would have basically solved half the puzzle of organ engineering. But right now it is no different from black box engineering.

This is very similar to Turing's reaction-diffusion models on leopard spots — great for computer modeling and popular science magazines, not so immediately useful if your grandmother gets cancer.

I will admit it looks perfect to sell as a biotech startup to dumb SV VCs who don't do their due diligence when it comes to investing in applied science fields.
This is a very interesting viewpoint! If by tough you mean teaching him to be self sufficient, to overcome his problems, to do the best he can totally agree. To use a concrete example teach him to tie his shoes, but don't do it for him. I think what is not good and what I have sometimes seen is parents yelling at a 5 year old for having his shoes untied or making some small error.

Completely agree about threading the needle. When I was young, men never talked about feelings. I grew up competent and successful, but also drank heavily to deal with anxiety. I didn't even know what anxiety was, that stuff just wasn't talked about when I was young. I agree though we can go too far and coddle people. This stuff is hard!
My reading of the parent's comment is that they're not referring to strangers: your pub, social club, church, &c is frequently an intimate community.
> I also can't help myself but point out that it is very bad to extrapolate from a sample of outliers.

I don't think that's exactly what's happening here.

As an analogy, look at twin studies: they're undeniably based on "a sample of outliers" in a sense, yet they're also key tools in many sciences because the outlier-ness of the participants isn't [directly related to] what's being measured. Rather, it's an external factor that allows the experimenter to control for other factors that might otherwise be difficult or impossible to account for.

The accounts mentioned in this article are far from an objective result. Yet, who better to understand the differences between how men and women are treated in society than somebody who's existed as both? Assuming they "passed" before and after their transitions (a fair assumption IMO), they offer a unique and highly relevant perspective.

With all the modern political strife around these issues, which includes a lot of misinformation and misrepresentation, I think it's easy to draw certain lines between "trans" and "cis" people that may not have much basis in reality. I'm not trans, but it's my understanding that for many trans people "trans" isn't an identity in principle or practice. Rather, they are—for all useful intents and purposes—representative "members" of the genders they identify with.
A CBDC (Central Bank Digital Currency) backed by a money market, and a hybrid public-private partnership between the govt and thin banks would have the stable nature of a currency while eliminating much of the inefficiencies in the current TradFi and cryptos.
It's not just that a new window is opened each time, it's that the interface actually remembers where you positioned the window for that item the last time you opened it. So in theory you could develop a muscle memory around it.

This might make even more sense now with our very large monitors. But we also deal with a lot more files now.

I'm frankly not sure that spatial organization is really the reason the classic Mac Finder is superior. I also think the placement of window gadgets and other details is key. It was just very coherent.

The Lisa Office System' desktop was also excellent, and potentially superior as well. As was the Xerox Star, which at least partially inspired it. But many of theses things (which focus on documents and office tasks and metaphors around them) make a lot less sense now that most people mostly just use their computer through a web browser and little else.

Our computers are less and less "office automation systems" and more just an end in themselves.
Pretty sure the intended use is when stationary, to warn that you have broken down and are positioned badly.

At least, that used to be the only time it was legal to use them here (Sweden). They recently added a rule that it’s legal to use warning lights while being towed, too. Either way, it’s certainly a traffic offense to use them while driving.
Yes. I guess Musk is the exception proving the rule.
DNS is a bit like network engineering, in that simpler errors has the tendency to have large impacts that prevent trial and error. Before working as a sysadmin I thought that doing experimental lab setups was something only researchers and student did, but when you have an old system up and running, it can be quite difficult to get in there and make changes unless you are very sure about what you are doing.

Like networking there can also be existing protocol errors and plain broken things that has for one reason or an other been seemingly working for decades without causing a problem. Internet flag day is one of those things that pokes at those problems, and maybe one day we will see a test for CNAME at the apex.
Ever since I had the misfortune of learning about hacker kids wanting self-driving cars, I've been saying you can literally put a poster on the side of the road and every car that comes by it will crash. Seems like I'm on the right track. Software has edge cases. Every software engineer knows this.

>The second-most frequent complaint is that the adversarial image attack is ‘white box’, meaning that you would need direct access to the training environment or data.

The training data will be leaked. Companies are very bad at classifying what is and isn't private information that they need to keep secret. But anyway you probably don't even need the training data.
Yet they seem to be able to keep on doing it just fine.
In fact, capitalism is the cause of that culture. People (men and women) bemoan being "unproductive", dread it, and apologize for it, because modern society bombards you with conflations of productivity and self-worth. This thinking is clearly wrong. We all have inherent value.

Thankfully that has begun to change. If you believe women do not feel that way, perhaps it is because of feminism's roots in socialism. Certainly feminism does not say much about the value of unproductive men.
Yes, we agree, DNS servers are fully capable of implementing modern cryptography. The problem is that the protocol is designed to assume they can't, and it's a series of creaky workarounds for that fact --- much of DNSSEC's jankiness comes from the protocol requirement for offline-only signers.

Maybe someone can create a Goma-equivalent for ungoogled chromium, but it's the project's explicit goal to not depend on Google stuff (they actually apply hundreds of patches to the code to remove built-in google service references) so a Google-supplied Goma cache won't be of much use to this project's builds.
>but you can still sideload your own code

Unless something has changed very recently, you can't sideload apps to your iOS device without getting a developer account from Apple and owning another apple OSX product from which to do the installation.

Not to mention being unable to use non-safari browsers on iOS and the scanning your images for illegal stuff they're planning on rolling out, and the extremely egregious anti right-to-repair lobbying they're doing.

Apple is not your friend. The less control we have over their device, the more money they can make from us.
Does Chromium have `make -j$(nproc)` or equivalent? Because a few hours on a fairly recent processor with a whole bunch of cores sounds long.

> traditional masculinity

The problem is that traditional masculinity isn't traditional. I suspect that most people think of it as stoical silence. But I don't think thats universal.

Reading brideshead revisited(1945), the whole thing is stuffed with what one might would call "overly emotional men" but that same generation is marked as the "greatest" in the UK.

I really don't think its helpful to anyone to basically say: "here kid, you're on your own, if you can't solve it, we just keep quiet" Sure, discipline is key, but thats not the same as emotional repression. Its perfectly possible to be honest about your emotional state to someone, be stoic, self reliant and disciplined.

I think the big problem is that people think that masculinity is about repression of everything apart from getting sex and money. Any deviation is treated as weakness.

On the flip side, a woman with ambition, drive and leadership is treated like an anathema. Just as a man who cries in public.

The coin flips both ways and I can't find an argument for it being useful to wider society
Sorry for being vague I mean this wiki: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.DS_Store
I'm not sure you got your idea of what feminism is from the correct source, because "men who provide nothing have no value" to me this seems like the patriarchy.
This is ineed the real reason, I also learnt about this when I lived in India. The article is totally clueless.
Whereas government files on children, often used by child predators who work for/in/with child services or their private contractors contain both public AND non-public info (e.g. medical data on the child) helping out even more. Child services child predators often stand out due to the enormous number of children they victimize. Current record is over one thousand. You might wonder how one person can even do that, as you physically don't have enough time to do that as one person, so ... prepare to be disgusted:

https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2021/07/26/the-german-exp...

Yet, somehow, despite child predators using these institutions regularly (in fact even the loverboys often complained about often recruit girls from child services institutions), there is no need to do anything about that. In fact, quite the opposite.
That's a problem localized to a select few countries, luckily. Sadly, in some countries women still face similar (but often much worse) mutilations as well.

It's sad that these barbaric practices are still tolerated, but it's not exclusively a male problem.
