I'm trying to say there exist natural hierarchies. If we explicitly acknowledge and account for them in the cultures and the governance models we choose to carry forward, it may be enough hierarchy. There'll also, for a time, be people who choose to realign with nature in such a way and those who'll prefer to not. One of those will be better at meeting needs and a natural inequality will emerge between those factions. I'm thinking inequality might be unavoidable if a culture is going to shift from being largely disconnected from nature to well-aligned with it.
Oh I was writing the same comment, you beat me to it, and more elegantly!

This is concerning. We were considering a move to DO from Huroku to save quite a few $, but I’m thinking AWS now. I dislike the convoluted mess of a UI that AWS presents, but this happening would be way worse.
Those things can reduce ugliness but even moderately attractive people can let themselves go in all those areas and still be attractive. Conversly, if you are unattractive enough those things will only make you look like a monster/villain/creep.
ISTR someone used GPT-3 to autocomplete a chapter of Harry Potter.
The Wikipedia article is frankly disgusting. The two options are natural origins or leaking from a lab and currently there is more evidence for leaking from a lab. There is no debating this. The Wikipedia article has already chosen a conclusion with no evidence and also is slandering the other possibility for political reasons while simultaneously saying that it can't be the other potential cause because it might be politically motivated. Absolutely disgusting. I expect better from Wikipedia
From the second article:

> The 2003 study and this year's found no DIF issues in the mathematics section.

The earlier claim about math word problems being culturally biased seems unsupported by the citations.

But will the claim be withdrawn? Hmm, let's find out...
Good. We will always have elite status symbols. They don't have to take 4 years of your life like college.
Successful professors can get to the point where they’re no longer interacting much with people who disagree with them.
Clouds in Alger while no wind in Atlantic? Total, so not even 0.5 GW generated among them for days so the storage gets depleted too.
> I could imagine that some people never use the function keys. Or never use the numpad keys. To some people they might be completely useless... Which would make a smaller keyboard understandable.
>
> Now, people who do need all those keys and yet still go for a smaller keyboard is harder for me to understand. :)

Right, I don't think anyone goes "I need these keys, I should get a smaller keyboard".

But, no one is saying "I don't need those keys, I can use a smaller keyboard". e.g. 40% keyboards like the planck lack a number row, as well as lacking a number pad; of course they'll have to have access to type in numbers somehow.

> boutique and expensive that I don’t think that people are forfeiting a dozen or so keys in order to save some money.

Right, I don't think it's a persuasive/compelling point; but it is a benefit. Comparing the cost of getting switches for 110-keys vs for 48 keys, you can either afford nicer keys, or don't have to pay as much.
It doesn't say only wealthy people will know what it is, it says they are much more likely to know what it is because they are much more likely to have experienced it first hand.

It would be hard to deny that generally sailboat racing is done by wealthy people.

Right, at the time of writing, that would have been perceived as the gravest threat to free expression. But I don't think that's still the case.

Agreed completely, I'm not making a legal claim. My claim attempts to stand on the moral philosophy behind these laws.

IQ tests are a very reliable proxy for academic performance potential. Is this even in dispute?
Your queue server rebooting is completely orthogonal to whether the application submitting the message can do so atomically or not. Use a cloud service if you care about durability.

Edit>> I see you edited your post after I responded. None of those scenarios qualify as "fairly often."
Having worked at these companies and those like it, there's a lot to unpack in this law. The short version is, they have to delete data "about you", not data that was generated by you. Business records, such as receipts, are allowed to can be kept. They just delete your name and phone number, your photos and videos, and documents that were visible to you, but all of the actually useful tracking information is encoded into "Anonymized rows". It's bullshit and everyone knows it except the legislators writing the laws.

That said, there's also a clever but effective workaround to all that redundancy - They store all your documents and photos encrypted with a key that's unique per user. When you request all your data, they delete the key - It's much easier for them to completely and quickly purge all that as a singular key, and clean up the files later. It's not a cop-out, because there's no effective way to get at your data once the key has been deleted. Those systems still have backups, but with much shorter lifetimes and explicit audit logs.
As a parent, Veritasium would be way more preferred teacher to inspire students to search for answer. There are many stellar students who scored A* that later in life just dump what they learnt. You'll be surprised how many medical students didn't make it to MD or not a MD anymore a decade later. Having someone that spurs you to work for it is a weight in gold itself than a great tutor helping you score full understanding and get that A*.
And thanks.

I was concerned that might be too much adaptation. Apparently not.
The first signal is a close RF transmission, billions of people rely on it everyday, a current disturbs the electromagnetic field and and an antenna, sometimes thousands of kilometers away, detects a very small variation in the field (-120dbm @ 50Ω = 0.2μV). This is how our cellphones, wifi, GPS, RFID works. So, even if you disconnect the bulb and the switch you can create a current in the bulb by turning on and off the switch.
That's very scary, I am building an MVP currently on DO and although I have daily backups of all the data pushed to another cloud provider as a safety, seeing how they closed your account suddenly out of nowhere with no recourse I feel like I should move out of there.

This is insane, if I wouldn't have those backups and the same thing happened to me, I would be screwed. How come they don't contact you beforehand, or at least let you move out your data (keep the account open but cut the droplets from public internet if for whatever reason their algorithm detected nefarious activity on it, or a bogus DMCA, exploits happens, etc).

I wanted to try an alternative to AWS but look like I'll be back to it soon. Does AWS have a similar track record of closing account out of the blue? Is there any other alternative that have better support and would at the very least try to contact the owner before taking drastic action like this?

Social media is the tip of the dystopic iceberg
I tried them after reading here about how their support is excellent and had an interesting one-day experience. Not long after logging in for the first time their site started having some issues, such as the GUI being jumbled because the asset weren't loading correctly. It went down officially a minute later and I didn't have time to hang around until it came back up. I got charged for the things that had enabled themselves or failed to really disable during that mess, so I asked for the money back. The first response gave me a guide to closing my account, so I tried again. The second response was to refund me some loose change (some dollars and cents).
Browsers - Chrome especially - have really fantastic tooling for doing stuff like this. I think there's some way to hook those up to Node, but they're very readily available on the front-end
Man, I wish they had differenter keyswitch options. I've used a bunch of Cherry MX styles in the past, but after switching to electrocapacitve Topre-clones, I don't want to go back.
This is almost exactly what I said when I was asked to install end-to-end protection software into my laptop as a freelancer. I stood my ground and they understood. They initially said they would send me another laptop to work from, but eventually relented on the requirements altogether and just limited my access to customer data.
> How are they a threat to society?

i thought you would offer a different take on these things. not answer with a question.

> We started getting reports from neighbors or the on-site management that are our guests are dealing drugs out of our units.

> Our lockboxes were getting broken into, keys taken and people have been living there for several days and in some cases weeks

> they would start packing up their car with our appliances

in civilised societies these kinds of actions would be considered extremely damaging to the fibre of the neighbourhood. people would complain to their elected official if the police refused to intervene. and if the elected official refused to act then he would be recalled.
There is an argument to be made that if the company has more than a % of marketshare in a given market or feature and intentionally prevents interoperability then it indeed owes services to everyone.

In this case, Facebook is the new website/storefront/phone number for a lot of small businesses as well as the default communications medium for a large chunk of the population and makes it impossible to interact with these without having an account (unlike let's say a telco or email provider which will happily receive contacts from other providers).
Surely you understand that your preferences are not widely shared - that's probably part of why you like living there in the first place, no?

If you wanted to persuade a group of people to immigrate to the US, you'd mention Ohio and the Mojave desert first? Those are not "premier" locations regardless of how you or I feel about them personally.
I have been a Kinesis user for 8 years, starting with an Advantage USB, added a classic PS2(with a usb adapter) as a backup and then was a tester for the Advantage 2 which I ended up buying. A company I worked for gave me a choice for keyboards when I joined so I tried a Ergodox EZ with the RGB backlighting.

General observations:

1. Overall I prefer the Advantage over the Ergodox. The big reason is the contoured design and the fact that the Ergodox tends to walk around unless you have a solid desk pad underneath it. Also, the Ergodox never felt as comfortable as the Advantage. Yes the Advantage is not as easy to travel with but still....
2. I like the new design, but there are a few things that would have made the pro perfect. PBT backlit keycaps like they offer on the Ergodox-EZ and RGB backlighting...and maybe a set of f-keys (on the fence with the last one).

One other thing... A mix of o-rings and QMX clips made a huge difference with the feel of the keyboard for me. I have been a cherry brown user from the beginning though and different people have different preferences with that.

Kinesis is also really good about providing parts and service. I've had them send me replacement switches and have seen them offer up in-expensive replacement boards to repair and keep older models going.

I'm going to buy one of these, but given that I already have 4 high quality mechanical keyboards and I have yet to have one die I am starting to feel guilty having all of these laying around. That said there is a side of me that is curious about the Keyboard.io :)

Same as per vmception's comments.

Also, what you need to realize is that opiate drugs are almost unique amongst drugs. There are staggering numbers of them in different classes - oral, injectable, short/long-acting etc.

The tragedy is that they're all addictive and the degree of their addictiveness is directly proportional their effectiveness at reducing pain (see Burroughs's perceptive quote in my post).

Thus, titrating the right dose and determining the period for which the drug should be given becomes a very difficult tightrope act, especially so if a long period is involved. Give too little and the patient suffers pain, give even a little too much and addiction is very likely the result. It's a nightmarish problem.

Opiates are the Janus of drugs - one face shows a miracle drug - the other is unmitigated pain and tragedy - and often death.

The issue here is that Purdue deliberately peddled oxycontin, a drug that can be taken by mouth, in ways that encouraged patients to easily slip into the 'too much' side. That this should never happen without supervision is a longstanding axiom of opiate management and has been known and well understood for over one hundred years.

In essence, Purdue and the Shacklers deliberately chucked away years of best practice which then benefited them financially but to the patients' devastating expense.

The matter of what drugs should be legalized etc. is somewhat different matter (which others have covered well so I won't address it except to say that they're not logically in conflict as they address different things).
That's not quite the equivalence. This is more like you having a piece of paper from the old owner of a property showing that you're entitled to passage and showing it to the new owner.
First prize is staying deleted? Second prize is getting back on?
I feel you. Silver lining is we learned what "aging" really is when we were young. It forced me to eat clean and go to yoga classes. If I didn't blow out my back I'd probably still be eating like shit and not exercising. So at least there's that.

These chronic symptoms still fucking suck though. I feel like I haven't been thinking straight for the past 6 years
You gave me the impression of equating governments enforcing sanitation and health measures with political manipulation. You said that diseases don't give government the right to do as they please, and later mentioned the public fear since the twin towers attack.

I completely understand that governments have eroded their reputation by their own actions, but in this case I'm supportive of vaccination and sanitation. This is not a terrorist attack, this is a very contagious disease that hasn't ceased to evolve because people keep hosting it and giving it chance to mutate. You don't have to trust the government to understand that their actions are reasonable and supported by science in this topic.
Thanks!

Words are considered a "discrete unit of meaning", i.e. 3/4 of a word doesn't really mean much. So words like "red" and "grass" are "standalone" in the sense that the mean something by themselves. I agree that words are very much related to each other, in the sense that you can combine them.

I was trying to draw a connection that the "disentangled representations" ML folks often talk about are but a special few-word case of grammars for combining distinct concept.
Harvard is a research institution. It's primary mission just isnt about education.
I still don't buy "then yes this is correct". If "ON" is defined as a state where ANY electromagnetic field flows into the lightbulb, then it is "ON" even before you throw the switch, because other photons are already shooting around all over the place, including from the neurons in your body pondering the result just before you throw the switch.

The definition of "ON" is exactly the main controversy with this and not a subtle detail.
The principles the FSF and Software Freedom Conservancy use when doing copyleft compliance actions encourage making legal action a last resort for when they refuse to comply. Legal action is a costly and time consuming process, so it makes sense to avoid it where possible.

https://sfconservancy.org/copyleft-compliance/principles.htm...

Legal action is a last resort. Compliance actions are primarily education and assistance processes to aid those who are not following the license. Most GPL violations occur by mistake, without ill will. Copyleft enforcement should assist these distributors to become helpful participants in the free software projects on which they rely. Occasionally, violations are intentional or the result of severe negligence, and there is no duty to be empathetic in those cases. Even then, a lawsuit is a last resort; mutually agreed terms that fix (or at least cease) further distribution and address damage already done are much better than a battle in court.
This needs to be sung from the rooftops every time Kafka is mentioned. It's an amazing tool but it is the wrong wrong wrong tool if you need a queue. It will bite you in the ass and you'll be left with someone breathing down your neck wondering why jobs are processing so slowly and why you can't just spin up more workers.
They return to the stream they grew up in before they went to sea, not necessarily the one where the eggs were hatched.

It's very common to stock streams with fry from a hatchery located somewhere else. Salmon generally spend a year or more (much more, in some species) in fresh water before migrating to the ocean. That's plenty of time for them to imprint on the "foster stream" -- they'll return to it, no problem.
I would say no, because it has a steep learning curve and low adoption rate. Memory safety is only one aspect of appsec. Logic flaws,library eco system security (npm,pypi,etc...) and supportabilty of the language (can you get people other than you to support it, regardless if pay?) are very important as well in my opinion.
I am currently too tired to evaluate the idea. But thank you very much for creating this!
This is, in principle, the standard approach for a periodical of a scientific society, be it Proceedings of the Royal Society, Comptes-rendus de l’Académie des Sciences, Doklady Akademii Nauk, or Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. They come less from a time of ubiquitous formal peer review and more from a time of communicating results in personal letters. In fact, as such societies were originally conceived as a sort of long-running conference crossed over with a social club, the journals were intended as little more than a streamlined way of publishing meeting minutes; that their names still suggest that everything within is supposed to accompany an oral presentation is not a coincidence. Over time, they more or less turned into standard peer-reviewed journals, but these traces of their original form still persist.
This is par for the course with free services, but this can't be legal if you're a paying customer and have signed agreement with them to provide you services in exchange for payment.
The issues with Ventavia, if true, are not something typical or expected at all. And it is even less expected that any reported issues will not be followed up by the regulator. While it is true that many trials suffer from similar issues, it is not the standard that we should accept.

And I don't understand why so many think that BJM article tries to cast doubt on the entirety of Pfizer's vaccine operation? It is nothing like that at all. It clearly says the issue is with one research organization contracted by Pfizer. Maybe it is because you lack the context and jump to quick conclusions?
you 100% could, and this thread feels like the twilight zone with how many people are advocating for using a rdbms for (what seems like) most peoples queuing needs.
I don't think this reaches the level of a cash settlement, personally. It is certainly shocking and would upset me. I agree that Princeton should try harder.

The English word "Chinese" describes three different things:

- a state (the PRC)
- an ethnic group (Han)
- a culture

The government of the PRC will gladly conflate those things serves their interests.

Most people in Hongkong would definitely identify as culturally and ethnically Chinese. That third item is ... a point of contention. I expect the situation in Taiwan is similar.

On the other side, it is possible to be nationally Chinese but neither culturally nor ethnically so -- see the Tibetans or Uighur for examples.
And they have the (supposedly former) colonies providing nuclear fuel at the cost of protecting their environment and population. [0]

And abundant rivers with to cool down the reactors and destroy their local ecosystems. [1]

And very collaborative national media outlets who mostly don't cover the nuclear scandals due to being owned by Bouygues [2] (french multinational well-known for telecoms but who also does a fair share of public construction including on the famous EPR [3]) or by the french State [4].

Some additions:

- misleading/missing news reports on nuclear topics was covered by the 2012 documentary "Les nouveaux chiens de garde" [5] (the new watchdogs) about media corruption and disinformation: they went through two days worth of news broadcast on two TV channels to compare how was presented (or not) the fact that Bouygues had major engineering failures on the EPR construction

- the french government has a history of repression against ecological/anti-nuclear movements, ranging from the murder in 1977 of Vital Michalon by police forces [6] during an anti-nuclear protest, to the harassment and military (gendarmerie) occupation of Bure (Meuse) and surrounding villages, including dozens of house searches, a bunch of prison sentences, and an ongoing investigation of eco-anarchists for "criminal association" [7]

- and don't even get me started on how to (not) deconstruct those facilities [8]

His technical errors include the “correct” multiple-choice answer being that the time to turn on is “1/c s”. That evaluates to 3.3e-9 s^2/m. It’s not even a time. Failing basic dimensional analysis is grossly sloppy.
