Truckies travel between population groups so can spread Covid, just a ships moving between countries can spread invasive species.

It’s not the 70% of the time they are alone, it’s the time at load/unload, truck stops along the way, and the like.
Yeah, for clarity Young and Mitchell are totally within their right to pull their music as an exercise of their speech and I’m fine with that.

What I find distasteful is the framing of “Rogan or me” as a way to pressure Spotify to pull Rogan from the platform.

Sure Spotify could do that, but they shouldn’t.
That video was incredibly inspiring. Time to dig out the spare chicken wire.
Not reasonable at all.
How many joules per transaction is the proof of stake network? How many tps can it perform?
The trouble with Joe Rogan is that he tends to invite people on who agree with his existing worldview (in this case, vaccine skepticism), and he tends not to challenge them whatsoever, so they are allowed to spout whatever nonsense with zero pushback. I don’t think this is out of malice by the way, I think he just doesn’t realise they’re spreading misinformation.
Seems like the depopulation timebomb and immigration crisis have the same solution.

1) Rich, educated countries have low population growth, but we need a growing population to grow economically (we need to grow economically for our current debt/prosperity scheme to function)
2) People in poor or war torn places want to come to places with more opportunity and less risk of random murder.

Cue the SpongeBob meme “take the people who want to come here and work and put them over with the people who want people to work for them.”

Didn’t the US drastically reduce their H1B visa count recently for no real reason? Wouldn’t we be better off increasing and expanding that sort of program rather that reducing it?

How many asylum seekers are trained in medicine, engineering, dentistry, carpentry or any of a dozen occupations in short supply? Heck, if we wanted we could pick while cohorts of refugees with complementary skills, plop them down in depressed midwestern towns and have thriving communities immediately.

I’ve know software engineers with master’s degrees from Scandinavian universities who had to leave the country because their visas couldn’t be transferred or renewed in a reasonable time. I know a Korean asylum seeker who has had a pending case for literally years. she’d be thrilled to take any job. She’s an educated, capable white collar worker. She can’t work because her case will be another couple years churning through a system that could literally be replaced with 20 lines of if else statements.

There are plenty of skilled, capable, interested people just waiting for permission to come solve the problem. All we have to do is stop blocking them.
Of course anyone who believes in freedom of speech would agree that Young and Mitchell have the right to pull their music. That doesn’t change the fact that one can disagree with that decision.
Yep.

Commit and move on. Hindsight is a great teacher. You will do better next time.

But you will also see a next time.
Not sure why you would need heaps of servers these days given everything is x86 and VM tech is robust and free

Children. I spend so much time going to birthday parties and hanging out at the park with my kids friends that their parents are now my friends. I find that I need to maintain the friendship so my children have friends outside of school (and an example of how to keep friends for long time).
Having the dollar as the reserve currency resulted in at first the draining of American gold reserves, and now the draining of American manufacturing. So it hasn't been without a cost.
As they are free to criticize Spotify by putting their money where opinions are and taking their content elsewhere.

Free speech all the way around.
Yes there is. Young and Mitchell should argue their position on its merits, not throw a hissy fit and take their toys and go home.
I do not know the nuances of free speech doctrines. I'll take your word. Assume all tech companies de-platform Joe Rogan fearing retribution from other customers

He buys a Ubuntu box to host the videos. And now he needs a static IP and a domain name. Are DNS providers considered in association to Joe Rogan's speech if they sell him a domain name?

Seems to be true going by the assumption that DNS providers are tech companies. If so, should the DNS providers decide not to sell Joe Rogan a domain name fearing retribution from other customers, and as a consequence Joe Rogan is practically NOT visible on the internet at all to any reasonable person, isn't that not in the spirit of free speech?
I just run over every spot a couple times from several directions, then feel for long parts to target them individually. It's not efficient, but it gets done eventually.
Yes, within any given year.

Thanks for the detail, as we know people exaggerate on social media and it wasn't clear from the few posts I could find about it whether this was an opt-in or not.

The first post has a mention further down in the tweet thread about that particular creator also getting a ~$3000.00 invoice from Vimeo.

https://twitter.com/hate5six/status/1481511608979533826?s=21

Patreon needs to be a publisher or be a payment processor, but don't charge people for both while only actually doing one or the other.

I suspect a lot of content people have paid for is going to start disappearing next week, it seems that these guys got one-week notices to pay up to Vimeo.

It will be interesting to see what Patreon does then, because your analysis is mistaken in that their hands are not clean here. All the EULAs in the world don't absolve them from charging for a service and then failing to deliver it. By refusing to publish the videos themselves, if Vimeo pulls any of the content down Patreon has opened themselves up for a class action, I would think. The end user subscriber does not have a reason to care about Patreon's subcontracting status, all they would need to know is they paid for content and it did not arrive.
Loved this:

> So I put my “Magic” mouse on to charge last night; it was at 16%. Got up this morning, and lo and behold, it was still at 16%. Why didn’t I know it wasn’t charging? Because there’s no charging indicator on the mouse. Another Apple “innovation.”
Also people completely dissing other groups as being a bunch of incompetent wannabes because the speaker does not appreciate the full details of their actual work conditions. I tend to join new orgs every two or three years, but in the same large companies, and so many times I have joined an “underperforming” group to help them with a “turn around” only to find the group an intelligent and heroic group dealing with crazy conditions, with fixes they all well knew but which required a persistent long term effort, that management wouldn’t agree to.
> which is the “anti-science” position

Young didn't justify his position with some appeal to science in the abstract, so not sure what this point is but whataboutism.
There are also other pro science reasons to be against GMO crops. A couple example. GMO based industrial farms grow monocultures that ultimately reduce the variety of foods people traditionally grew and ate, leading to less varied diets and loss of culture. GMO crops also have yields that are unsustainably high, leading to disruption of water cycles (see Ogalalla aquifer depletion).

I wasn't claiming NAT is adding security. A combined IPv4 NAT/firewall will not necessarily be less performant than an IPv6 firewall - that was my claim.

Also, GP claimed that certain services that don't work because of NAT would work on an IPv6 network. I was curious which services those might be, that don't work because of NAT but wouldn't be affected by a firewall.
The convenience of an unlimited catalog of DRM'ed digital music far outweighs the rare inconvenience of music vanishing.
The why is that they introduced a ton of problems by choosing a bad model to implement their systems.

Their problems would go away if they switched to a tool built for the job instead of using crypto.

Chesty did have some good lines, though, like "We're surrounded. That simplifies things."

There's also the popular "Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement"...
80% of what the "skeptics" attack is based on issues that are not related to "web3" but to simple Proof-of-Work consensus mechanisms. PoW is acknowledged to be a sub-optimal system, everyone serious working in the space wants to get rid of it. Most of any new projects are already based on some other consensus system and at least Ethereum is poised to make the switch this year.

The other 20% of the issues are things that skeptics claim to be "causing harm", but either ignore to see that the harm already exists with the status quo (money laundering with crypto is actually really hard, and a lot more money gets laundered within the existing financial infrastructure) or ignore there are solutions to mitigate them being developed or in place.

There is no system that will be "good for all parties involved". Ever. It's all about trade-offs. It's fine if you are okay with the status quo, but don't go around thinking that everyone working in the space is either malicious or an opportunist.

The US has their own reasons. Part of it is some people see others who didn't take the vaccine as amoral or the reason why things are still locked down. Those people need to be punished some believe.

Many have been feed partial truths and political leaders have used this to deflect blame and place it on a minority population. The smaller the minority the harsher the treatment.
can't tell from your post - are you OK with major platforms publishing vaccine disinformation? Overall is that good for society?

Whether you are or not, is it ok for people to decide to peace out from that platform and move to another one, based on their own beliefs?

Don't see where any silencing is occurring at all.

Can't you put it into the upper socket, upside down? Most bricks do not have grounding, where the third pin would prevent that (or do they in NA?).
It wasn't an ultimatum. Young directed his management to pull his music and explained why.
And then you have zilipoper
Spotify subscribers can still enjoy Joe Dassin’s excellent French cover Le grand parking :)
WW1 was thought to have been impossible to happen ahead of time because of the losses in business and trade would have been too great. Claiming that it was pushed by business interests is an extraordinary claim which to my knowledge has never been substantiated with any extraordinary evidence.
OK. I'll give the shallow version, but this is a favorite idea complex that I like to chew on: Warren Buffett's "eat like a six year old" diet and its magnificent power over Warren Buffett.

My theory is that this specific diet is legitimately important to his health because of the way he uses his psychology.

IOW he eats like that not because he wanted to be known as the embarrassing candy diet guy, but because his body-mind system gives him no choice.

And I further suspect that if any given person starts using the same tools and perspectives he does, they will be drawn toward the same diet to the degree or depth that they use those tools and perspectives.

And also I have no opinion as to healthy/unhealthy--it's not that kind of idea. More like--it may be life-sustaining under the circumstances.

Ok, that's out there now, phew ;-)
But it _is_ free speech, isn't it?

There are plenty of examples through history of mass speech overturning things.

And there are plenty of boycotts organised by both left and right wing media the world over.

In the last four or five years, Trump urged boycotts of MLB, Coke, Goodyear, AT&T, Delta, JP Morgan Chase, Viacom, Merck, Cisco the NFL.

Trump _supporters_ (major and minor) have urged boycotts of Meetup, Nike, Nordstrom, Starbucks, Netflix, Pepsi, Nabisco, Anheuser Busch, Amazon, Ben & Jerry's, Apple, Ford, Bank of America... and Tucker Carlson is currently nursing very public hurt feelings about anthropomorphic chocolate CGI characters.

This stuff happens. It's how change of all kinds happens. It shouldn't be surprising if it is aimed at Joe Rogan, since he's so fond of being outspoken.
We've recently been using this at work, and it's seriously amazing.
My understanding is that for a long time now modern sockets don't use the holes for detent and instead just rely on friction. The current ANSI/NEMA standard says that: "The hole in flat blade is optional, and it is intended for manufacturing purposes only. However if used it must be located as per dimensions shown above"

mGBA's sound for GB/GBC is still inferior to VBA's. See these comments by the mGBA dev and others: https://www.reddit.com/r/emulation/comments/sdlxz8/so_in_202...

In any case, mGBA has nothing to do with VBA, so there's no reason why that statement would include it.

Personally, I've been using BGB for 10 years or so, and it's been great.
Estimates are 2,700 to 3,000 trucks. Most of them are not 18 wheelers but pick up style trucks. Most of the people are from the Ottawa area. According to the news reports they started coming into town and just parking in the middle of the streets.

Current temps are -10F going to 12F on Sunday. It will be interesting to see how long the protest lasts in that kind of weather.
> There’s a clear feedback loop between the military and the politicians.

Definitely. I recommend H. R. McMaster's Dereliction Of Duty, which discusses how military leaders, many with political ambitions, helped to get the US into Vietnam.

It has to do with speech, that people often hold stupid positions that are not aligned with the truth but we don’t usually demand that they’re silenced. [0]

The GMO case was an example of a position Young may hold that is likely political and wrong. There are many examples across the political spectrum.

[0] I’d argue this is because as a society we understand the risks here with speech restriction leading to less truth on net.
Is it worth getting Tidal if I primarily listen with AirPods? I've heard that Bluetooth decreases audio quality, so that would negate any benefit of the lossless music Tidal provides.

> Young and Mitchell pulling their music is literally freedom of speech (free expression).

Yes, they can protest. But they can't demand to shut up others (Rogan) which is what they seem to be doing.

Personally, people should double down on their protest, hope others join against Joe Rogan's batshit insane science.

But, I will never stand behind people wanting to deny him the exact rights they're exercising. Young and others are doing exactly that. Isn't it bullying?
>...the person you're accusing of intentionally omitting part of a quote already quoted that very text in their previous comment:

That was edited back in after I made my comment (this is admitted to by OP themselves).

To the extent that I make an accusation it's that it's absurd to think you can dismiss the wealth of information on this subject and come to a remotely comprehensive understanding of how to implement reliable IO functions by simply reading a couple of sentences of the POSIX spec and dismiss the numerous other sources that go into very fine detail on this subject.

This is not a subject you just read a few sentences on and then make bold claims about how Linux doesn't implement fsync properly, implying that the experts who have gone to great lengths to implement fsync on Linux just don't understand it; that all the papers on this subject, the numerous mailing list posts, the very submission itself, can all readily be dismissed as a simple failure to read what is as clear as day as if none of the people discussing this issue have ever bothered to read the spec.
In terms of "tps", transactions per second, Proof of Work Ethereum can handle 30 transactions per second.

Part of the development for "Proof of Stake" Ethereum includes scaling the number of transactions via sharding. Each shard will be able to handle 2,400 tps. As more shards are deployed up to 64, Ethereum will reach 160,000 tps. Please note, the upcoming improvement to Proof of Stake Ethereum does not yet use sharding, but it is under development.

As comparison 1,700 tps for the Visa network is a good benchmark. I recall Visa's technical capability is 10x or 100x that number though. This comparison isn't intended to claim "ETH beats Visa for currency stuff", but simply to give a sense of the potential impact of Ethereum as it improves. Thousands of transactions per second implies a powerful network, whatever it's used for.
Cryptography Basics: bare minimum code for ECC
>around... 1990

Yes, correct. Well, 1989. Or 1991 for public accessibility. arpanet is not the web.
It is not in the spirit of free speech. The internet is the modern printing press. Anyone who can buy, rent, or borrow a printing press to speak his mind should have the right to do so.
I'm pretty sure - he was donating 50% of his salary at Jane Street prior to starting his current crypto endeavors and has pledged to donate basically everything over the next few years, of which he's already started. Initially staff at his companies had to donate regularly, 1% of fees from his companies are donated, and he advocates others in the space to do the same. The guy basically lives in his office eating fried veg and rice playing League of Legends in his downtime. That money is being made for charities and predominantly comes by enabling trading, which I don't believe is ethically wrong (his general good, in a utilitarian sense, is definitely higher than any qualms one might have against crypto anyway).
In the original article the author talks of posting a statement of intent in 1994 (13 years after the IPM-PC's debut) and kind of skips over the the next 12 years in a couple of paragraphs, getting to 2006 (25 years after the IBM-PC debut) and FreeDOS V1.0. I was referring to the time FreeDOS was written vs the time MS-DOS was written so I think my 15-20 years range was reasonably accurate.

It did take a while for the PC revolution to really pick up speed. The 1981 genesis involved a floppy only machine. The 1983 PC-XT was the practical workhorse that changed everything. The 1984 PC-AT was insanely expensive originally and the average knowledge worker could well have skipped straight to a 386 machine in the late 80s at which point the dramatic speed increases year on year became the norm for a while. Many people continued using MS-DOS alone into the 90s, I know I did. Windows prior to V3.1 was impractical and nobody used it. Windows 3.1 was a successful product and a good experience if you had a really powerful machine. Windows 95 in, that's right 1995, was the real beginning of the end of MS-DOS alone as a mass market office workers' operating system. I would put the golden years of MS-DOS software targeted primarily at 8088 8/16 bit CPUs (in some ways the 8088 had 8 bit hardware and the comparitively uncommon 8086 was the real 16 bit CPU) as 1983-1988. By 1988 much more powerful 32 bit machines were affordable and becoming ubiquitous, but for a while they were mainly used to run 16 bit software much faster.

By 1994 when FreeDOS got underway, 8088 machines were not worth targeting and I'm not surprised FreeDOS doesn't work as well as MS-DOS on them, as I already stated.
Hats off to you! My wife and I just started doing the same. I'm also encouraging both of my young sons to begin to think about what it might take to become self-made.

I'm tired of drinking from corporate troughs.
In what way are they deciding that?

They are simply deciding that they don't want to share a platform with Joe Rogan. Neil Young made it clear it's an either/or; Spotify went with "or". Their prerogative on both sides.

From everything I've seen, Org Mode is basically everything that I've ever wanted in a productivity/note-taking app. The only problem is that I would have to use Emacs...

I know Org Mode is extremely tied in to Emacs' core, but if someone could figure out how to separate it into a vscode extension or something, that'd be really cool
Personally I'd use Banshee (or iTunes if you prefer) and a NAS, but a lot of people are using Nextcloud which has plugins for this kind of thing.
Chernobyl was the only one of those that blew up and it was based an idiotic graphite pile design abandoned everywhere outside of the USSR in the 50s. Fukushima Daiichi experienced 3 small hydrogen explosions that were fully contained by the reactor building, and wouldn't have happened if they hadn't built their backup power for that reactor underground. According to a linear no-threshold model, the accident would most likely cause at most 130 cancer deaths in total assuming everyone in the zone of highest exposure received the maximum possible exposure, which they did not.

Three Mile Island didn't kill anyone and no one was exposed to enough radiation to increase their risk of cancer. The accident happened because someone trained on submarine reactors misapplied that training and turned off the cooling system. No operating reactor allows an operator to do that anymore. The reactor did not blow up.

Only one civilian nuclear power reactor has ever "blown up", Tokyo was never in danger, no one died because of Three Mile Island, and even around Chernobyl the predicted incidence of cancer is failing to materialize.
Dunno if Domino's is comparable internationally (at least the sizes are smaller here in Germany), but I actually like ordering "unordinary" pizza from them now and then. Things any Italian would cringe at. They are cheap, deliver quick and have reasonable quality. It's just not at all Italian pizza.

Then again, from my experience it was hard to find true Italian pizza in the US.

Fun anecdote: When I was in NYC I walked into a corner pizza place in Little Italy that sold these giant slices to-go. I asked them if they also sold Tiramisu. To my utter surprise the 3 or 4 Italian Americans present didn't even know what Tiramisu is. That day I learned it was actually just invented around 1980 in Italy. Today it's one of the absolute favorite deserts in Germany and every Italian restaurant serves it and even many non-italian have it.
