"There's no reason the official docs for Python should be lower in the results than a shitty docs clone"

If Google still used/respected the original page rank algo, the official docs would never be ranked lower than a spammy clone site. I just wish they reverted back to the "power of the crowd" algo, let each node vote with their links and reputation.

Nowadays I almost stopped using Google completely. I first noticed it with torrent/streaming censorship ~5 years ago, then the political/ideological censorship started to feel unbearable. I just want my search engine to show me the most relevant results BASED ON THE QUERY I SUBMITTED. No moral judgement crap.

My search stack nowadays is a mix o Bing, ddg, Yandex and if everything else failed, Google. It's a sad reality.
This is an interesting premise, but I'm not sure that the pool of potential grant recipients will be a very good one. The problem that I foresee is that people working on these sorts of projects seem to fall into two broad categories:

-People who don't want to work for someone else, but lack vision and exist on social proof. These people will be attracted to the grant funding, but unable to use it to create something interesting.

-People who appear to have vision, and are either brilliant (and often very driven) or delusional (and often lazy). Most of this group is delusional, and will never succeed. The brilliant ones are so driven that they will often succeed without assistance.

Even venture capitalists are bad at finding brilliant, driven visionaries, so I'm not sure how this individual plans to sort the wheat from the chaff.
Then pass UBI instead and drop the minimum wage laws (there's no need for them if UBI were a thing). Problem solved.

Right now the problem is in the power dynamic between companies and employees - the dynamic is very unbalanced in the companies favor. In "Bullshit Jobs" Graeber compares the current system to a Dom-Sub relationship with no safeword for the "fake-competitive" industries that are not unionized.

UBI is the safeword.

This is exactly why I started using Apple Music. Some of my music collection isn’t on streaming platforms but Apple Music let’s me host it and stream it in a library right alongside music I don’t “own”.

I also generally like the paradigm of being able to collect streamed music into a library so I can come back to things again and again. Back when I last used Spotify around 2015 I used the starred playlist to do this but it was no substitute for just being able to see a collection of albums. I’m not sure if Spotify’s UX around having a “library” of music had improved since then.
I can only imagine that the scale of all US SMS messages is absolutely staggering. It probably eclipses all other text formats combined in terms of daily production. Here's a blog post from a few years ago estimating it at 26 billion text messages per day and rising: https://www.textrequest.com/blog/how-many-texts-people-send-...

Not counting media and assuming they are all 160 byte messages, that's 4 terabytes per day, or about 200 wikipedia's per day. I guess that's not too bad in terms of storage requirements, certainly a management amount of data for a telecom to store. But assuming that you want those indexed and easily retrievable somehow, it could get very burdensome to manage and interact with, and that tends to balloon the size at least a little bit as well.

The liability and legal issues around it (both externally and internally - don't want employees spying on their exes, leaking data from celebs, in addition to the policing issues, etc) makes it pretty undesirable to store though.
Do you have more info on the WALRUS stuff? Is that part of the Elixir lib?
It might be the other way around. I think you need to be right type of person to be a (good) software developer.

To be a (good) software developer you need to be at least a little bit honest with yourself (can't learn from mistakes if you can't acknowledge you made a mistake, etc.), you need to be curious, you need to be willing to observe and learn and you need to be able to put effort including in things that may not necessarily have immediate payoff.

All of which, I think, correlate with being a good person. Does not mean you will be a good person, it just means there is higher chance.

And, in retrospective, all good developers I have ever got chance to know a little better were nice, good people (at least to me). Which is not true for general developer population (which is to say I also got to know a lot of shitty people which were never good developers).

I like the initiative, but I wouldn't recommend these tutorials to my friends. A couple points I'd change in the back squat tutorial (which was the first one I checked):

- "Position your feet with an outwards 45-degree angle": the angle depends on the hip anatomy, and 45 degrees is very extreme. Rather, make sure that your hip, knee and foot is in the same plane at all times.

- "Pause for a moment at the bottom" is okay but unnecessary.

- No mention of proper tension in the upper body (and especially avoiding rounding in the lower back). This can become extremely dangerous, and preventing injury should be the number 1 priority. (FYI, an amazing guide to bracing [1].)

- Also for safety: instead of "until your thighs just break parallel with the ground", one shall not go deeper than their mobility allows (which might be above parallel).

- It's hard to follow the movement with the camera moving up-and-down and zoomed in so much. A fixed camera that shows the entire body (and is possibly circling around the person) would be much better. The knees and ankles are very important, yet we get a single glance at her feet.

- The video shows the squatter in the opposite direction than in the description. This way she needs to walk backwards to put the weight back, which undesirable.

> This quote comes off as somewhat elitist.

At least out of context, I don't see any judgement words in the quoted text to suggest one way is better than the other.

It's a bit like saying "people put food in their fridge and take it out, without ever stopping to check if the refrigerant is still working. This might be because they didn't grow up with having to refill the ice box."
The product referred to as "Apple Music" isn't library focused. The app now known as Music and the service known as "iTunes Match" is.

Apple Music is the music as a service subscription that keeps pushing adverts in app and keeps turning itself back on even if you're not subscribed and have turned it off.

If it's fundamentally unfixable, then the Constitution fundamentally doesn't work, or at least doesn't work with the society we have now. I think the first step is to figure out why. Did this ever work, or were we just kidding ourselves for two centuries? If it worked then but not now, what changed?

Then, once the cause is understood, the next step would be to figure out an appropriate system that would work, or at least work better, and amend the Constitution to reflect that new system.

The alternative is to just let things continue as they are going, and I don't like that choice. It results in the president becoming more of a ruler and less of an executive. I expect less freedom down that road (and eventually none), and I don't like it.

My take on the questions I posed is this: Yes, it did work, at least adequately, and now it doesn't. What changed? I suspect that it was Roe v Wade. Since then, the right has been trying to get control of the Supreme Court to overturn Roe, and the left has been trying to block them. So both are fighting over control of the nomination process, which means the presidency and the Senate. I suspect that that's the cause of the trench warfare in Congress.

If I'm right, then it is in fact ultimately unfixable. Neither side is going to compromise, ever. You can't even fix it by amending the Constitution, because then there's going to be a battle about undoing the amendment.

If the machines can replace people then they will replace people regardless. Its a capex vs opex decision and capex is almost always better in the long run. That's why that argument is a bit of a red herring.

Self checkout came regardless of whether the state had a minimum wage increase or not. As soon as the technology was mature enough it was rolled out.
The constitution works both ways: The state has to ensure personal liberty to everyone but what if a group started to restrict another group's liberties? Which group do you provide liberty for? It's a dilemma: Either those who sacrificed 2 years of their liberty so that scientists could come up with a vaccine, restoring all previous liberties after herd immunity would've been reached, all without causing the deaths millions of vulnerable people. Or those who decide against a vaccine where there is scientific consensus on effectiveness, who cause the infection to spread further and further, without having a scientific/rational reason for the decision, because it's rooted in fear.
Precisely. Altair/Vega-lite are good examples of projects that do this well (but its all client-side rendering so YMMV).

Haven't done this long of a pure personal trip in a while but in a previous (US) job I took several month long trips with an otherwise conventional vacation/work schedule. Combination of fairly long tenure at the company, some unpaid leave from taking leave for a Christmas shutdown, and concentrating almost all my vacation on those trips.

A 6-day work week means you basically have to take time off to go away for weekends at all.

That said, I'm not convinced a 3 day weekend is much better than a 2 day weekend on a routine basis, certainly compared to have the same time allocated more flexibly.
This is impressive. Is it still beta and invite only?
It is not elitist. Really: it is just a guy trying to find an explanation to something that gets his attention. There is no adjective in it.

That might be true, but the level of success might change dramatically based on assistance. Founders know this, and may choose that path despite being capable of success regardless.

Whether he can do it in his lifetime or not, that's another question, but IMHO there is no doubt that he's trying hard.

But the feds did admit to that.

> While most of those initially arrested under the war measures act were released without charges, more than 60 were charged and more than 30 with crimes serious enough to deny them bail.

That's not good. Arresting and denying bail is one thing (and apparently it was done for arbitrary reasons because why not), getting a real conviction to stand the test of court is an other one. I mean, sure, if you stop and frisk every black person at a busy intersection without cause you'll eventually find an "illegal enough" item to charge one of them.

> Five of the kidnappers ultimately traded their victim for a ride to Cuba.

Alleged kidnappers and alleged victims. The court couldn't prove anything. And honestly, Canada is playing the same games by keeping known terrorists like Omar Khader from getting extradited and tried for the murders they committed. For political reasons of course. So could these individuals really expect a fair trial with constitutional rights suspended? Don't think so.

I would be utterly embarrassed to produce a 1mb payload on anything but an image- or video-heavy website (where the images and videos are the actual content, not superfluous crap). There's absolutely no reason for websites that are primarily text and hyperinks to ever approach anything like 1mb. Even 250kb is excessive for many cases.

My latest website[0] is 7.5kb, and I built it after getting fed up with the official MotoGP no-spoilers list which sends 2mb to surface the same information in a much less user friendly way. This is how the bulk of the internet should look.

> Certification was a turf fight between different bureaucracies: State versus Federal. Of course, the Federal Government won the battle, as they controlled the purse strings.

A federally-approved privately-run Registered Training Organisation (RTO) could provide you with the appropriate certification. It was all too easy.

I'm not reading too far into things, I'm looking at things objectively. At the beginning of the book, Allen thanks his "spiritual coach J-R." He is referring to John-Roger, the founder of the MSIA cult. GTD started as seminars given to members of corporations. It is no coincidence that the MSIA cult started as a series of spiritual seminars. John-Roger went on to author a self-help book called Life 101 [1]. Paul Allen went on to author a self-help book called Getting Things Done. You can find online allegations of the seminars being used to recruit people into the cult. There are allegations of the cult telling women to abstain from marriage and perform sexual acts on their leader who is god incarnate.
