Your justification is fully compatible with the observed phenomenon as described. The comment didn’t criticize Israel, although the possible criticism so obviously follows from the description that your mind added it all by itself.

That, in a way, is also quite telling.

I’m not sure if the definition of democracy is flexible enough to include non-democracies as long as they bring a note to class giving a good reason. If Israel’s situation does really require essentially doing away with democratic norms, it’s somewhat delusional to still afford it that label, as a sort of temporarily-but-forever-slightly-embarrassed-democracy that protects its citizens’ rights as long as it’s convenient to do so.

But I doubt that state is actually necessary. There has just been too much Austrian-style corruption in the last decade not to suspect some of that to be also in play here.

Let’s wait and see how many politicians of the opposition were targeted in these programs. Because that would be the immediate end to any claims of justification.

Edit: and just to be sure: nobody doubts that Israel is far better than the usual comparisons, i. e. its neighbors and China. It’s just because Israel is considered to be among “the good ones” that it gets criticized more readily. Both because the distance b/w expectations and reality is larger than elsewhere, and because criticism among peers is usually more effective than it is among strangers.
I'm pretty sure you are getting confused with the GNU recursive acronym, which was supposed to stand for "GNU's Not Unix".
Yup, "smart" devices will require an accompanying phone of a similar age with the app already installed in case it was removed from the App/Play store -- if you want to keep using it much after 5 years.
> and controlling what enters the strip ...

Unironically Yes!!!! Egypt do! Happy you see how mind boggling it is that there are others who deny access to the Gaza strip. (Again, because of their gov - Hamas)

> x10 Palestine's fault?

Who said that? It was during a war. It is because Israel has stronger weapons. A war that shouldn't ever started. Why did Hamas start it? You are really dodging the question here...

> Also, Israel didn't "give Gaza control to the Palestinians" in 2005,

They gave them military control and government control. So you are wrong, read Wikipedia again. Otherwise how do they get rockets if the are so limited? Looks like they could get anything but choses to get terror related assets... which again. Is their fault.
New Virus-Like Particles Can Deliver CRISPR to Any Cell in the Body
In 2004 I tried integrating the RA into OS X via the Input Manager mechanism, a way to load external code into Cocoa apps that'd have access to the contents of any text field, so you could get the text that the user was currently looking at and send it to the RA for queries.

If I recall correctly, I never had enough time to make it very useful, and it wasn't clear how best to get its input sources - Mail.app stored email it could read, but other things like calendar and chats were inaccessible to it.

I did it as part of a generic project for making use of input managers: https://sourceforge.net/p/leverage/code/HEAD/tree/

(NOTE: the RA code isn't there, I think it was never even useful enough for me to share it)

My favorite use of that was the "ISIM", or emacs-style incremental search in text views. That was nice.
But of course, loading arbitrary external code wasn't sustainable, and that mechanism went away, along with my ISIM.

I no longer track OS X development, so I'm not sure if there's a new equivalent way to do this stuff. It'd be neat to hear.
I think we do not have problem with different opinions, but instead we have problem of dogma's or in other words side1 does not talk to side2, as "open dialogue" with "stand open to be corrected" is gone.
News (especially MSM) is not doing it's job but instead doing psy-ops and further polarizing the society, while "alternative/poor/amateur media" (like Joe Rogan, etc,..) are "filling the gap" where for example Sanjay Gupta came from the other side and that was good, but we'd need this to happen a lot more ~100x, so then we would not need to reach to any totalitarian censorship which is further amplifying the problem and solving almost nothing (i.e. fact checkers are with very limited value, often biased and partial incomplete)

That it has critics does not imply it's not widely held.

Regardless, that's just a dispute about terminology: sure we could say that we should only talk about events being "simultaneous" if they happen in exactly the same place - but in that case it's not a particularly useful term anymore. It's just an argument about how we apply words derived from newtonian intuitions to a relativistic context.

Mathematically, for a given reference frame we can draw a space-time diagram, and certain events will be above the horizontal line. We can draw the same space-time diagram for a different reference frame and have those same events be below the horizontal line.

Whether that horizontal line has any actual physical relevance doesn't really matter IMO, the maths says that events move in relation to the line when the frame of reference accelerates, and that's what the "paradox" is illustrating.

Having said that, if the "one way speed of light" exists (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-way_speed_of_light) and even if it's not the same in all directions, then this "plane of simultaneity" is definitely a physical thing, since you can send a beam of light to a target, measure how long it takes to return, and using the speed of light in that direction you can work out exactly when that beam hit the target in your local time - ie. you've found two events to be simultaneous from your frame of reference, that are not in the same location.
Same here. I didn’t submit the link as doc.tidalcycles.org either, it should have been the root of the domain which does work.

I would argue that as long as Israel is lobbying the US to make it illegal for Americans to boycott Israel it is in fact our business

Hard drives with multiple copies in different places, and you need software to manage those photos and video for you, google Picasa was good in the old days, until google kills and replace with google photo. All major players provide photo cloud service, and for some people think the problem is solved, while some believe
the digital assets should be taken care by themselves, store locally, backup locally, that is the primary, and cloud backup is the tertiary backup, a good complementary.

The price of existing cloud storage is too high, and some of the companies(Shoebox, Canon Irista) doing the business gradually shutdown the services, this is a money losing business, it’s not the efficient way to manage huge amount of assets centralized (flicker CEO’s open letter sent last year confirmed this), they have to either make it more expensive, or make you the product. Cloud service is convenient for the user, people don’t need to buy expensive hardware, don’t need to be the professionals to maintain that, don’t need to worry about the energy fee to keep it run 24x7, but things are changing, single board computers are getting cheaper, more powerful and more energy efficient, storage are getting cheaper with larger capacity, software are getting more intelligent, people are having more and more concerns about the privacy, it’s now viable to host the Photo service, your private cloud, at your own place.

There are tons of open source alternatives there, but non of them provide competitive features like google photo, even though there are some backend services like photoprism that does a very good job on indexing the photo with AI, however the mobile APP is missing, and google also has the ecosystem to show photo/video on google home and chromecast.

We've been building Lomorage (https://lomorage.com) trying to fill the gap, it's easy to setup a self hosted service(Still need a lot of work to make it easy for non tech users), cross platform, has iOS and Android mobile APP, can setup multiple accounts, some basic AI search(not polished and need more work), there are other features missing, but it's stable enough for daily use. Would appreciate you try it out and give some feedback.
Apple details how the boot chain works in the platform security document. The early boot governed by an erase install is stripped all the way back to that.

There is no “firmware” at that point, it’s literally a boot rom, and the only thing that can be installed from that point is an apple signed binary.

If you don’t trust that assertion then there is no system you can trust, because at that point your threat model is people injecting malware at the fab.

The ars technica extended interview with Andy Gavin is a great watch (mentions lisp from his time at MIT) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pSHj5UKSylk
maybe they've updated, but the fourth paragraph is currently "we announce today Igor has chosen to step back..."

which would seem to imply "not dead". but given the tone of the first three paragraphs i think even that is a bit too late in the post to clarify.
Because, in this case, the incoming weapon dictates the fight. If you are chasing something down (think air-to-air missile) then every turn by the target allows the missile to catch up faster via a shorter path and smaller turn (a2+b2=c2, the missile follows c). A 45 degree turn by a fighter jet might mean only a few degrees turned by the sidewinder missile fired from behind.

But with a hypersonic coming towards and the interceptor being slower, the opposite of a classic dogfight, the opposite becomes true. A small turn by the hypersonic means a larger turn by the intercepting missile to get to the new intercept point. If you draw the triangle then the intercept path is C, but the shorter of A or B. The hypersonic is following the longer of A or B.
As another native Russian speaker, to me the headline explicitly did mean that Igor is alive, and the subsequent meeting would be in the physical plane of our existence. Had it been one of the closer synonyms of "Good bye", I myself would have surmised the worst.
That's harsh, could you explain why, please?

As far as I understand (and I'm the author) `COUNT(*)` means "count the number of rows, regardless of the values". `COUNT(id)` means "count all non-NULL id's" which ends up being the same for non-nullable columns, but requires additional processing for nullable ones. Thus the first option should be able to optimize out more processing time in some situations and at worst be the same.

This is confirmed by some quick googling, it's also confirmed by me running the query with a COUNT(*) and COUNT(id) - both run in the same amount of time, and it's also how it works in a SQL engine[0] I've implemented - COUNT(*) is able to optimize out the most underlying data loading.

To add a data point that backs this up: Biden won Washtenaw County in the MI Democratic primary --- that's the University of Michigan. Besides Sanders, no other candidate cracked 3%; it wasn't a split vote. You can compare his county-by-county results in 2020 to 2016 and it's stark. The Progressives were routed in the Presidential primary.

There are legitimate uses of notifications from websites, like being told from my webmail that I've received a new email. Or any other messaging service. But no, let's throw the baby with the bathwater because some blog sites ask for notifications to spam you.

Apple isn't crippling PWAs because it cares about the user. They get more money if you pay for an app on their App Store. Simple as that. In every PWA thread I keep reading the same Stockholm Syndrome argument that Apple are crippling PWA to save us from the notification spam. Meanwhile I have native apps spamming me with offers.
Depends on the "ad product" being sold. For "I'll pay you to put this image on the page" ads you might not need JavaScript. For "I'll pay you if someone clicks on the ad" it might also be possible. For "I'll pay if the visitor sees the ad on the page" (which requires the ad to know if it is in the viewport), then JavaScript is 100% necessary. Likewise for "I'll pay you if you show the ad and then the person you showed it to buys the advertised item within the next 30 days". L

The ads market is a very complex and competitive industry. This means that practically every display side provider has their own special "ad product" to differentiate themselves. Almost all of these require JavaScript to implement their key features.

In addition there could be 4 or even more parties involved in showing an ad (publisher, publisher's supply side provider, advertiser's display side provider, advertiser, plus miscellaneous middlemen). These different parties may not trust each other, so they currently use JavaScript to send (via `fetch`) themselves information about the auction to check up on each other.

That's what the Islamic Courts Union were doing in Somalia after the government collapsed into anarchy, and they were reasonably effective at stamping out lawlessness, but they were taken down by Ethiopia and the US and the vacuum was replaced by the Shebab, who are far, far worse.

I concur, one can learn a lot about the culture when learning a new language. For example, in Swedish you say hello simply with “hej”. And as you may have guessed, Swedes are not big on introductory formalities even in the business context. On the other hand, German and many other languages have different words for you and You (“du” and “Sie”, pronounced Zie). As one may guess, You do not address unfamiliar people with “du”, there is a process to get to know people to the point when You ask a person if you shall switch to a “first-name basis” (this phrase gives a hint that in English, one uses the last name to address an unfamiliar person instead).

Edit: I was deeply impressed when I saw a photo of one of Einstein’s letters after he migrated to the US. Such a highly accomplished scientist still opened his letters to colleagues with “Sehr geehrter Herr Professor Dr.” (highly esteemed dr. professor, sir). This tells me all I need to know how cultured Einstein was.
This was the same rationale AMD had when parting ways with their Global Foundries business, and I'd argue just as much a move out of desperation. What's different are the politics.

United States domestic national security concerns make it much more financially prudent for Intel to pursue the same split. AMD took a gamble, Intel is likely to have more of a "sure thing", they have the capital backing them to make a competitive foundry business, if not the federal government will make that capital happen.
You remind me of the communists of 30 years ago. They also kept talking about the "new man" which altruistically worked to the max of his powers for the betterment of mankind and everyone else, while keeping for him only what the state deemed he needed.

They were also very frustrated that the regular people were… simply not like that.
though some might find that corny, i certainly feel this way -- i'm going to try and reconnect with some of the people here now. it's not that life is too short, it's just that perhaps i haven't taken advantage of the time i could spend with others.
That’s clearly a bogus argument.

But it is quite a good example:

A cheesit contains an ingredient that is 100% cheese.

A Tesla with FSD mode, is a car that has a feature that is full self driving.

If that mode cannot handle all conditions, then it is not full self driving. That means no “I’m confused” switch to a human driver.

This would be a plausible argument if automation of farming agriculture resulted in 90% of the population being destitute (the vast majority of humans used to work in agri). On the contrary, extreme poverty is at the lowest level ever since agricultural automation was introduced.

So, I don't buy this argument. Huge, society changing automation has happened already. We didn't need UBI, and people were lifted out of poverty in huge numbers.

This time around, factory and transporation automation will drive the price of commodity goods like food and electronics to just above the cost to create them. After we have an end-to-end automated food production line (from farms, to trucks, to warehouses, to supermarkets, to homes) then the price of food will be so cheap that it's almost free.

That's aside from the fact that UBI is not possible economically (it would plunge the disabled into poverty by reducing their welfare, as well as tank the entire government budget). Most UBI proposals would cost in excess of 100% of the US government budget. Which means, no more healthcare, no more roads, no more firefighters.

A very recent extreme example from Ireland: Just last week, there was a horrific murder of a woman out running. Ashling Murphy, a teacher.

The next morning, print and radio media ran the leaked news that a Romanian national with many priors had been picked up by local Irish Gardai (cops).

For a day or two, racism and xenophobia ran rampant - then sure enough, he was found not suspicious and released. The man's life is ruined now.

IMMEDIATELY afterward, print and radio media blamed social media for jumping to conclusions, doxxing the man and ruining his life (social media were actually very good at removing his name). Old media are now calling for regulation of social media and blaming them for the whole thing, projecting and deflecting with impunity.

...

There are countless other examples - Joan Burton in Jobstown, Irish Water protests, Maurice McCabe - every time the government or Gardai or media are caught in a major lie thanks to social media, there are a couple weeks of stories about online bullying and the need to regulate social media.

It's so charmingly obvious, and the lie is blatant, but it works on enough people that they get away with it. The cost to society is extreme, from enabling corruption to slowing progress to dulling and poisoning the minds of the gullible.
CV ageism: Can you be the 'wrong’ age for a job?
I think you're trying to be ironic but... yes. Absolutely. Third parties trading money with each other for my attention is insulting and dishonest.
Thanks for the feedback! All of those are very real problems and we've spent a lot of time thinking about how to handle them:

> Either you just fail and ask the user to resubmit or you fix up the formatting on their behalf.

We only apply autofixes when running on the user's machine; when running on CI, as you point out, we only show them because of Git's decentralized nature here.

> The secondary problem is that the lint tool chain running locally sometimes doesn’t version match what’s in CI which poses a set of problems too, although in practice I think that’s raised as a concern only by teams that don’t establish good hygiene of checking in the set of tools (maintenance of multiple platforms is real there though).

We've built out our own system for managing (mostly) hermetic toolchain installs, and require users to version their linters in their trunk.yaml configuration right now. (There are some open questions here around how we handle version skew between our toolchain version and the system-installed toolchain version.)

We're also well aware of the problems that emerge as you scale to a larger team; hierarchical configs are one of the things that we've discussed but are waiting until we have more traction to flesh out. (All of us working on the linter side have experience setting tech direction for orgs of 100+ engineers).

> Covid has already proven beyond all my doubt that it won't eliminated by any of the current vaccines so for now I'm deaf to any claim to take it for anyone else, i.e. the herd immunity argument.

You're doing it to stay out of the hospital. That helps you and helps society.

The biggest fuckup in this whole thing was everyone getting their hopes up that the vaccines would end the pandemic via controlling transmission.

That is all your largely all you alls fault though.

At the end of 2020 it was looking increasingly likely that it was going to be endemic with the Alpha variant having been found, the related coronavirus 229E having been found to evolve antigenically, and Fauci was setting expectations that the vaccines would only be about 50% effective in preventing transmission.

For example August 7, 2020:

https://nypost.com/2020/08/07/fauci-says-covid-19-vaccine-ma...

> Fauci says COVID-19 vaccine may only be 50 percent effective

> The odds of a coronavirus vaccine being highly effective are low, Dr. Anthony Fauci said on Friday — and getting people to take it might not be easy, either.

The problem is that the initial VE results before any waning of neutralizing antibodies had happened and before any variants were way too optimistic and the results were not durable.

But we're still at >90% protection against severe disease and hospitalization along with long COVID and other issues -- turning Omicron into a cold virus for the triple-vaxxed, which was always the point if anyone actually listened to experts and not the news media.
