Yes this is limiting the free market but it's a conscious decision.

It's still allowed to process data for your own analytics (e.g. to improve your offer) and make use of third party services. What the GDPR aims to prevent is your data being shared with the whole world way beyond the entity with which you originally interacted.

If that means services cannot finance themselves through advertising anymore then so be it.
Originally they were going for a 100,000,000 NOK fine, but lowered it down to 65,000,000.

>The NO DPA reviewed the fine announced in its draft decision (10,000,000 €) on the basis that the revenue of Grindr (seems to-this part is redacted) seems different and that Grindr has made with the aim to remedy the deficiencies in their previous CMP.

Allocations are pretty cheap, but GC can be quite expensive under high load/big heap.

That 20:1 is the depth of applicant pool and almost entirely unconnected with the 95th percentile current income of one country.

Harvard draws from all over the world and many US upper-middle class parents/grandparents are willing to save for 20 years or use HELOCs; they don’t have to pay out of current income. Upper class can just pay for it (there are well over 1M households in the US alone with a net worth over $10M; those people would barely notice putting little Chris through Harvard).

If student loans were entirely outlawed, Harvard wouldn’t need to lower its prices; it would just end up not having poor people attending.

Sometimes its good to remember that the best method is the one that you actually use - the author clearly uses their method! You could also argue that reducing your number of dependencies to a calendar and a note file is actually quite practical. It depends on your perspective.

This was one of the few text-based philosophies that helped me settle with a "mostly" plain-text lifestyle.

It is not about the tools that gives you all the features but the freedom to be free of tools and just pick up the raw things right away anywhere, anytime, even if it requires more learning in the beginning.

After a while, the habits, the processes just become muscle memory. One may indeed use a tool on the top when one is comfortable with how the plain text is organized.
The key to this solution isn’t really the .txt file or the formatting.

It’s the ritual. Any productivity system can be made to work once it becomes a habit and therefore your default action.

I think .txt files or Org mode are attractive to devs because they feel like something we’d be doing anyway during our day. the same system will work with a paper journal or even a fresh piece of paper every morning if, and only if, it can be integrated into your natural daily workflow as an automatic habit. I personally found that paper is better for me because I get to it before unlocking my computer and being confronted with work and communications and notifications that compete with it. However, I have a lot of peers who couldn’t hang on to a paper journal or TODO list during the day if they tried, so digital formats win.

The real key is to make it a habit and learn to stick with it.
I remember someone here putting it this way: treat user data like uranium, not oil. Both are valuable, but you don’t want to just collect and store an unlimited amount of uranium. Collect the bare minimum user data you need to operate your business and then dispose of it when it’s no longer needed.
Yes i can empathize with finding jq hard to understand, it's quite different and took a while to grasp. The reason i choosed it anyway was that after prototyping some common type of queries i would like to do (basic value access in deep structures, multiple recursive traverse with filtering, transform objects and arrays) in various languages, jq was more or less then only one that felt terse enough.
Also i think it's quite nice that you can output to JSON and then load into whatever language or environment you want
Maybe there are some alternatives i should look at?

Many people never get matched because there was never even a chance to get matched. Thats the only observation and mitigation presented.
Mine is a notebook and a pen. Whatever isn't in the last 3 pages deserves to be forgotten and not done unless it reappears through another context in which case it gets re-added.

On the one hand, I think you're right, it's more the job of science journalists to summarize scientific literature and communicate its significance based on research methods and potential impact.

At the same time, this goes wrong so often that you could make an argument for a 'plain English' summary of an article to help facilitate both journalists and the curious.

Presumably researchers explain their research to non-experts all the time, so this is not some unbelievable request.

There is definitely an element of elitism in the UK around rugby, I can't deny that.

However, I'd draw the comparison between a large crowd of rugby supporters leaving a match and a similar sized crowd of football supporters. I used to live near the Easter Road football ground in Edinburgh and that was pretty unpleasant and threatening on match days (particularly when Glasgow Rangers were playing...). I've never encountered the same level of sheer nastiness from a rugby crowd (and Edinburgh gets a lot of them) as from football crowd.

I remember once getting the last train from Glasgow to Edinburgh the day of an Old Firm match - one set of supporters at one end of the carriage, the other set of supporters at the other end and a few of us non-combatants sitting in the middle desperately trying to pretend that nothing was happening. That was fun.

NB Scotland does have a weird sectarian angle to football which doesn't help - although I don't think this is nearly as bad as it used to be.

"proper" RISC-V machines may be a ways off ... but a "singular entity to sue" isn't what folks interested in RISC-V are trying to avoid (at least, none of the people I've talked to about it)

As it is, there's not really a "singular entity to sue" even in the ARM world - all the licensees out there might be lawsuit targets (if they really blundered something horrifically), but ARM Holdings isn't going to be a serious target

I’m in the US, so…

The point is that the World Cup has previously taken place at a consistent time of year, every time. If they made this change as part of a plan to distribute league disruption globally then we’d talk about it as such, but they made this change as part of a corrupt voting system that led to a bad decision with a load of fallout they’re still trying to work out.

The difference:

SO provides solutions to problems.

Experimenting, playing around and "throwing spaghetti at the wall" can lead to an understanding of the problem.

SO will tell me to use DISTINCT, and that is correct.

But why? Why is this the better? Is it really? Why is the home-brewed reduce slower? How could it be improved? Oh hey, but if I did this to the data upstream I could prevent non.distinct records from being in the DB in the first place, etc. etc.

Software Engineering is, among many other things, a craft. Just like carpenting or stone carving or smithing, it must be honed, and mastery can only be achieved if one plays, trys and experiments.

----

Of course, reading about the solutions to a problem can also help in its understanding. For me personally, if I do not understand a problem, I like to do both: Experiment, and read what the "canonical" way to solve it is.
Or you could see it as operating in the EU is a liability. If you don't handle data in just the way they like they will come after you.

What a cool project. I am curious why three popular Prolog implementations are supported, but not SWI-PROLOG.

I really like the interactive book idea. I hope I have time over the holidays to properly check it out. For about two years in the 1980’s I used Prolog for a few IR&D projects, things that I would normally have done in Common Lisp.

I watch most of my videos at 2x. Well, 1.75x as 2x sometimes makes it too difficult to understand someone, particularly if that person has a strong accent. I find this allows me to digest more content in less time, especially if the person is a slow speaker.

If I miss something or can't grok something well enough, I'll rewind or, well, slow it down a bit for that piece.

What do I not watch at 2x? Movie trailers. I want to appreciate the theatrical efforts.

based on my calculations the tardigrade would weight about 1e-8 kg or 1e-5 grams.
Carbon is 12 grams per mole which is 1e23, or 1e21 atoms per gram. So we would get 1e16 atoms in a tardigrade (give or take a few orders of magnitude).

Wouldn't quantum entanglement be quite impossible since it's a macroscopic object.
Ask yourself this: who isn't astroturfing?

(For the US in fact social media astroturfing doesn't even have to be covert: as the social media belong to domestic companies, they by default promote the national party line and foreign interests - it's only bad when someone else does it).

Is your comment satire, sarcasm or something like that?

Wouldn't "epistemically toxic" be characterized by false, unsubstantiated or misleading content?

A documentary is video, as are recorded lectures, or random experts explaining anything.

A video allows us to learn and share knowledge without needing to be in the same room - the overhead of which detracts from the volume of material possible to teach or learn. The 1.5x is helpful when the speaker talks slowly, and makes sense that it's more effective, since your attention is more focused to keep up.
There is absolutely no evidence to support this assertion.

Instead there is plenty of evidence that currently there is a lot innovation in all niches of the programming ecosystem - from low level [Rust] to high level, and a lot of coder interest in all the options.

Also talking about "lowest common denominator" comes across as somewhat snobby - many world-class coders use high-level languages when appropriate. It's a matter of choosing the right tool for the job, not dumbing down.
A file isn't an application. Ultraedit is the productivity app.

Either because other people want it and placed high bids, or there were a spike in other people wanting it, or offchain PR from trusted sources.

You have to check your own collection, or collections you find interesting. There’s not going to be a push notification.

Whether its a collection of polaroids or a collection of nfts its the same in this regard. (except you could make your own tool to know about the bids and volume in real time with the NFTs, and the chain of prior purchases and prices are built in, compared to physical goods on ebay or trying to aggregate and archive craigslist where you also wouldn't be assured of those pieces being actually part of the desired collection)
We can live without data hoarding companies, thanks.
Right, seems to me that's still intrinsic. The motivation somehow entering me from the outside, I still want to do the thing. (If I don't want to do it, then I'm by definition not motivated to do it)
Yes, the calendar is stretched, but in non-cup years, summers have a few months off. Switching from 2/4 to 3/4 summers having an international competition ( for European players, as i already mentioned African and South American ones already have competition every two years) doesn't really change that much. Even with a competition in the summer, players still get at least a month vacation ( Pedri, who played in the Euros and the Olympics got at least 3 weeks, the minimum allowed, and he certainly was an outlier ( and is now paying for it with injuries)).

Furthermore, more competitions and more matches means more opportunities for more players to play a part.

> And it's not just the players that can't keep up any more, the fans can't either. Traveling is expensive and annoying, particularly for games during the week (attending a "Montagsspiel" means two days worth of vacation), international travel for the cups means plane tickets and hotel stays and that eats up money really quick.

Not every fan needs to see every game in a stadium. More games, more chances for more fans to visit. With a World Cup every two years, demand will probably be slightly lower/spread out, meaning more fans overall can go see the games. Not to mention that a World Cup every two years means much more host countries, which can be huge, for local fans and the sport locally. There'd be more shared hosts, hopefully close together. I'd love to see more neighbouring countries host, and i bet many countries and many fans in those countries would love to as well, especially for countries where qualifying to be a part of the thing isn't always an option.
It's bad when others do it.

I agree, it can be a great hook, but we can have nouance, not everything has to be so dumb, right? We can teach people that look sure you can have this feeling of learning, but it can be very misleading people are watching edutainment and think they are learning which is probably even worse than if they were against learning in the first place. Edutainment is great fun for me at least, but I see so many people think they know something because they have been exposed by content on youtube and live in this self-deception that it's just sad.
Generally with Windows if you need to update a program just running the new installer will update it IME. No reason to install it somewhere else.

Mac programs will often leave behind crap hidden in the library folder that I find frankly pretty annoying. Sometimes it's pretty sizeable and not entirely clear if it's safe to delete. Windows Uninstaller process is more annoying but it does a better job removing related components.

There's exactly one thing I still prefer to do in Gimp - splitting a single image into multiple images, one per RGBA/HSL channel. There's also some image formats that Gimp supports that Krita does not. But that's it. There's nothing else I miss, and Krita is just incredibly far ahead on usability.
The Ehang AAV does fly, but it seems like a commercial dead end. They aren't going to get type certification to carry paying passengers under the aviation regulations that apply in most countries.

Many things are hellishly complicated in Linux, due to politics and technical difficulties. Case in point: when I’ve started to work on NFSv4 ACLs, support in Linux was “worked on”, there was a prototype. It was 12 years ago. In FreeBSD, full supper for NFSv4 ACLs, from file systems to userspace tools, shipped decade ago. In Linux it’s still not there.
So it’s better to just never acknowledge it? As if there is no alternative?
It's removing critical thought from the world, bit by bit. People are (self)decieved that they are learning while they are merely having a very weak/superficial exposure to a domain of knowledge and they stick with that because it gets them the great feeling of knowledge without knowledge itself.
Many cities, such as Toronto where I live, still have lead pipes for drinking water. The levels are extremely low, and they have various additives in the water supply to minimize risk, but the safe level of lead consumption is zero. So yeah, I drink distilled water. It’s also handy to have distilled water around for various uses, such as steam irons.

There are many sources of electrolytes, bananas, our endless array of processed food, salt, etc. I can’t imagine anyone in North America needs to worry about their electrolytes, beyond those that do anyway due to medical issues or due to strenuous physical activity.

Our lackadaisical attitude toward pollutants in our drinking water, especially lead never ceases to amaze me. Though we shouldn’t be dumping such large amounts of a pollutant in our waterways, it is wild to see the traction fluoride gets with the paranoid.
You would need to hire a hardware/ops specialist who can buy, spin up, and maintain physical machines. That's a $100K+ job at any reasonable startup (not counting benefits) which is more than our Heroku spend (4-5 year startup). Keep in mind Heroku is way more expensive than just AWS.

This comment just screams of engineer-only focus. Running servers yourself brings almost no value to the customer and is a specialized skill that you have to pay for.
