Indeed and take the negotiated sweet money from Europe as Toilet paper. Which they did due to their maneuver backfiring. Now they increased taxes massively, are grappling with major interest rate hikes putting a lot of normal Januszes in a tough spot to pay their mortgages. The cherry on top is a raging inflation.

You are right they made a political move because they politicized and tribalized everything in the regime. Constitution is nothing but a tool for them. The law is optional. I think you give them too much credit in believing they understand at all what they are doing. My sensation is that the polish democratic institutions were too young and people too insensitive to the concepts of checks and balances to see the real damage being done.
The social rifts are huge as well. On a country that prides itself on its identity and tenacity after the war, it is all a sad tragedy. As an imigrant to Poland it is extremely sad some of the divergences happening at a Christmas table. For what? No ruling party is there for ever. It is all just childishness.
Sorry for the rant, it's just that I just received my new year's salary and it comes with a nice 7% net decrease due to the amazing polski ład tax "bonus".
Boost is (was?) considered to be such a heavy dependency (especially in the days before distribution package managers and build systems got their act together and collaborated or at least acknowledged the reciprocal efforts of one another) that it's probably single-handedly responsible for easily at least half of the so-called "NIH" libraries/ad-hoc solutions I encountered for a particular decade of my career as a C++ developer.

At one point, I had a curated SVN repository of certain boost header-only includes that didn't require any sort of build integration, had no dependencies of their own (even other boost libraries), and didn't require any build system integration - and I know I wasn't the only one.

The world of native software development was just so unbelievably different from that of web development - it's really no surprise developers from that lived through that era have such a hard time accepting the modern-day age of PWAs in Electron sandboxes masquerading as native programs. People that cut their teeth developing desktop software with something like Python (just as an example) instead would have a completely different perspective on all this, of course.
I mean, the majority of stances on any message board/comments section boil down to that. Why would HN be magically different?

Fortunately, if you can't afford IPv4 then no one else can afford it either, which means the incentive to adopt IPv6 is extremely strong and thus you no longer need IPv4.

Except you. To run through a compromised machine... Perhaps I don't quite understand how it works, but I don't see how this setup negates that issue. Once you plug it into the compromised machine and allow access to it with whatever touch-authentication or w/e, I can't imagine you could keep it secret from the attacker on the compromised machine. But maybe it's encrypting the key on the device?
Earlier the buyers were made light by their pocket with sub-prime loan financial engineering, now the target has moved to businesses with this new financial engineering. Sounds bit worrisome.
Inflation is hard to stop, and you probably wouldn't want to. Meanwhile, they aren't making more crude oil. So, it's definitely going to be more money for less gas as time passes.

On the other hand, if they made a game where you held down a button to buy a certain amount of teraflops, it would probably go the opposite direction over time!
Everything in the bill is a highly progressive tax based on percentage of earnings/revenue by individual/business: https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtm...

$500,000 income (at 50+ org) would be taxed $7500+4500+750+2000 = $14,750/year

$300,000 income (at 50+ org) would be taxed $3750+2500+$750 = $7000/year

$150,000 income would be taxed either $1000 (<50 org) or $2875 (50+ org) a year

$50,000 income would be taxed either $0 (<50 org) or $625 (50+ org) a year

So it's around $450,000 income that you hit that $12,500/year amount (2.7% of income)

Excise tax is separate factor.
Oh, I happened to live on both sides of the globe and have a fairly sound explanation. Europeans (that have the only universal healthcare system of comparable quality) have a concept of doing your duty. It's when a tool manufacturer won't deliberately put shittier wiring to make the motor fail short after the warranty expires. It's when a dentist won't claim you have 3 extra holes and then keep pretend-drilling your teeth for 30 minutes and bill you for it. It's when an advisor will actually try to find a solution fitting you the most (as opposed to the one paying the highest commission). U.S. culture is different. Like it or not, it's about making a quick buck and hopefully not ending up in prison. That's great for startups and high-risk ventures, but it will never work with setups when you just assume people to do their job well and not try to stiff you in some way.

Russian culture is very similar, so when USSR implemented centralized planning, people resorted to just stealing what they could. Like literally, your way to get some meat for the lunch would be to know the guy that works on a sausage factory, who would steal a piece for you in exchange for some vodka your cousin stole from the distillery. This eroded the trust between people to the point where you cannot start most types of business because your employees will randomly steal shit from you no matter how much you pay them. Hence, high petty crime. Hence, endless feuds between neighbors. You have no idea how low the ship can sink without people realizing that something is wrong.

What always worked in the entrepreneurial cultures like the American one is set proper incentives. Simple, transparent rules that people would agree upon, and let them compete with each other. If you have 10 dental practices, and 2 of them charge you for the holes you don't have, the customers will move to the remaining 8. If a hospital starts charging unreasonable fees to feed extra levels of bureaucracy, a bunch of pissed off MDs will open a competing one. But we are not doing that. We have low interest rates that allow established players to scoop up competition with cheap debt. We have complex bureaucratic systems that make opening a new hospital without a 8-figure investment virtually impossible, and then we wonder why people's entrepreneurial energy gets directed towards creative billing rather than actually delivering value.

I haven’t found convenient technology solutions but I do tell them the following (and repeat it again and again until it’s drummed into them):

1. If someone calls you from a company you use, don’t tell them any of your account information. Tell them politely that you’ll phone back on the main number. Look up their number and call back (or just ignore if not interested).

2. Emails - same. Call the company about it rather than reply.

3. Offers that seem too good to be true usually are.

4. Hang up on anyone telling you your computer is broken and call me.

5. Some patterns to look out for: limited time e.g. you must do x right now. Paying them in apple gift cards. Email address incorrect. Inability to confirm your details to you (rather than you to them).

The technology changes over time but the tactics don’t so if you can educate them with some basic knowledge of how to avoid the scammers or make them prove themselves, that may be the best way.

Is it really? I tend to avoid it in favour of ””” or ‘\n’.join(<list of lines>), because it looks like a mistake.

Triple quotes are kind of annoying if the string is indented, but you can just not indent the string to avoid the whitespace.

Best not let any linguists hear you say "representing concepts to representing sounds". All languages represent sounds as far as I've ever heard from them, and the idea of "representing concepts" is regarded as a remnant of some very broken ideas. :-)

As far as I (a non-linguist, although I've read a bit) know, there are roughly three ways of writing: alphabets, syllabaries, and whatever Chinese is (logosyllabic?).

Alphabets have one grapheme per (roughly) phoneme and have(AFAIK) developed once: Proto-Siniatic, which led to Semitic (Hebrew, Arabic, etc.), Phoenician (which developed into Greek, Latin, etc.) and a few others. Every other alphabet is a direct or indirect descendant. They typically have <50 graphemes.

Chinese is kinda-sorta syllabic, but the language has a great many one syllable words which have a grapheme mapped directly to that use. On the other hand there's things like "coral" (IIRC) which is two syllables and is written with two characters each of which are not used anywhere else. It, its descendants, and any other similar languages if there are any, has some many thousands of graphemes.

Syllabaries have one grapheme per syllable and are the most common form of writing, to the extent that it's pretty clear that they're the normal version of human writing. They typically have a few hundred graphemes.

Mayan and cuneiform are a couple of weird cases. They (AFAIK) are mostly syllabic, but with some logographic-ish parts like Chinese. But the number of graphemes are pretty firmly in the syllabary range.

Tl;dr: Writing is weird and the writing I'm doing now is very much so.

I agree that they are rare. Dr. McCullough's claim was that they were impossible, that Rogan's friend who got it twice actually had influenza or something one of the times - a diagnosis he made based on no information other than appearing to have gotten it twice.

If he merely claimed they were rare, that would not discredit him.

Let's take it at face value this is fact.

For my healthcare plan I pay 6k a year on top of what the company pays (more that 20k). Then I pay copays on top of that.

It seems perfectly plausible to me that I would come out ahead if the company and I switched from paying about 30k a year in healthcare costs to a single payer system with only 20k a year in costs to me and my employer!

We can split the difference and each is ahead 5k.

I think people need to do more than just read a headline.

The Netherlands has a fertility rate of less than 1.7 births per woman[0]. The only reason its population is slightly increasing is that people are living longer and people want to move to the country. In fact, the population of Europe as a whole actually declined slightly last year.[1]

So we shouldn't be worrying about "big families", we should be worried about voluntary self-extinction. What do you think the correct population should be for the Netherlands or Europe, and what do you suggest we do when we reach it? Obviously the current level of government benefits per child aren't enough to keep the population level stable.

It's more about the context. Yes, this module could have 10,000 lines of boring code or 10 dense lines. But the overall system is 100,000 lines across 3 languages, 8 runtimes, and 2 databases, so the savings from that one module are minor in the big picture.

This is an insane comment. how would reducing population not reduce revenue source for taxes for pensions and public transport? Crowded schools? Build more schools! Traffic on highways? Maybe reform your shitty environmental laws that cripple public transit project and have dense housing so people don't have to drive. Doesn't take a high IQ to solve these problems. Also California doesn't have a real drought. Water is being used for things like farming almonds which consume a lot of it.
They are happening faster than expected because IPCC reports have been sandbagging for decades. Which, TBH, is entirely rational not only for political, but also scientific, reasons.

I, for one, might be a doomer, but have no illusions about us meeting goals to keep warming under 1.5C, or even 2C for that matter, and it is going to happen "faster than expected".

Phaker.js – Drop in Replacement to Faker
Here is the breakdown from this article for 2020: https://www.census.gov/library/publications/2021/demo/p60-27...
8.6% are uninsured
Of the insured:
- 54.4% of the ensured on employer based insurance
- 10.5% purchase theirs directly
- the rest get theirs from one government program to the other (Medicare 18.4%, Medicaid 17.8%, TRICARE 2.8%, and VA and the like 0.9%)

So your comment only covers less than 10.5% of people at the moment... a little more than the number of people who have no health coverage (a good portion not out of real choice).

And that does not even cover how horribly this sort of market functions: you never know how good or bad your coverage actually is until you go to use it for a particular problem, and then you don't really know that until it is over and you are maybe bankrupt. Health insurance is the worst place to try and use market forces to regulate it... well maybe after military, fire, and police...

To be clear, I am not saying "This FOIA request is bad because I don't like the people filing them." I agree transparency is good, and I in fact think it should be the default, no FOIA necessary, including and perhaps especially for things like medical approvals. That means the assumption of it being made public should be built in at every step of the process, including notes of patient trials.

I am simply responding to the comment above that asks, who are the people who are requesting the information, and what is their agenda. That is also a very important thing to know for a vibrant public discourse.
This is an amazing mission! Good luck! You're making California a better place.
Thank you! Our school encouraged us to participate in Hour of Code back when I was in the 2nd or 3rd grade.

I was immediately hooked, and spent the afternoon in the public library checking out some activities on code.org. My parents checked out a guide for MIT App Inventor, and I created my first few coding projects there.

Additionally, I discovered MIT's Scratch, and spent many years creating projects on there.

I found that Scratch had Discussion Forums, and a section titled "Advanced Topics". Other kids were sharing websites that they made, and I wanted to fit in and be like them. I then spent a while asking questions and trying to make my own websites. Eventually I must have gotten bored because I didn't do much with websites for a couple years, and instead stuck to Scratch's editor.

I picked back up HTML, et al. when I was bored during quarantine and, for some reason, this time it clicked. I created various JavaScript projects, and I've been working on increasingly more challenging projects. It's fun to set aside a few hours and just code something new.

My goals for the future are to learn some more lower level languages (eg. Rust), and hopefully study hard to get into a nice university.

I'm with you. I bought a Homepod and thought I would make use of Siri for timers, to-do items, grocery lists, and other similar tasks in addition to music. However, Siri is so comically useless for music that I don't even bother. It's significantly faster to just pull the song/album up on my phone and tell it to play on the Homepod.

The only things I use Siri for now is to add ONE item to the grocery or set a timer. The timers are useful in the kitchen, but it's hardly worth a Homepad to set a timer.

I wish I had returned it within the return window. At least it sounds great.

The relays are only used if your devices can't see each other directly; over a LAN, and in many WAN cases, it won't even be used, and if you really care you can just disable it. And bluntly, if someone had a TLS break that could work after the fact on recorded data, syncthing is the least of our worries.

> (see deprecation of TLS1.3)

The what now?

> What does "Authenticated. Every device is identified by a strong cryptographic certificate." mean if you don't have to setup a certificate authority or buy a verified SSL certificate or use LetsEncrypt or generate a public/private keypair? Would you recognise your SyncThing certificate if you saw it?

It is a public/private keypair, and if you're doing the initial setup over an untrusted network, yes you should copy-paste the fingerprint and email it to yourself or whatever.

> How well do you know the SyncThing protocol? Do you know someone in a far away country cannot find a flaw in the implementation which allows them to sync to your device, or insert themselves as a relay node?

How well do you know the dropbox/icloud/gdrive/whatever protocol? Do you know that somewhat in a far away country cannot find a flaw in the implementation which allows them to sync to your device, or insert themselves as a relay node? Also, inserting themselves as a relay would not be a security break, since "Anyone can run a relay server, and it will automatically join the relay pool and be available to Syncthing users. The current list of relays can be found at https://relays.syncthing.net/." (https://docs.syncthing.net/users/strelaysrv.html)

But you wouldn't actually have to do the work. The value of the land should increase because the work could be done. It really comes down to whether or not the 3-year provision of SB9 can be enforced, because then there is some value in the homeowner staying in their home while the work is done. Apparently, this is enforced by making the home owner sign an affidavit and then charging them with perjury if they lie. It will be interesting to see if that holds up in court.
