Cattle do eat grains as a supplement to grazing, a drought ration, or in lot feeding.

And since lands with grass is limited by space, and seasonality, we also do grow a lot of food for them.

E.G: UK stats for 2015/16 of soy imports (3.1 million tonnes) break down:

- 1.1 million tonnes for livestock
- 1.42 million tones for human food
- 0.58 for non-foo products

That 35% of the imported soy, just for the livestock food.

It's okay to interview "crackpots". There is this pervasive notion that merely letting such people voice their views to a wide audience is a moral hazard. That these people are so obviously wrong that they need to be silenced because the public at-large is so simpleminded they cannot reason for themselves and will ultimately believe whatever is presented to them.

Mostly because it reinforces/reinforces several stereotypes by associating the group as exotic and savage (less developed).

For example, making their skin literally red. Potentially artistic license, but also very odd considering that isn't a real skin color. Or stating that they were white to begin with and then were turned red, implying a type of deficiency/aberration from "normal" white. Plus the term "redskin" was used historically as a pejorative and associated with contempt, derision, condescension, or sentimental paeans to the noble savage. The stereotype of huge noses also is frowned upon since it was used to make claims of their savagery and brutishness unlike the civilized Europeans. (See also stereotyping Jews as having big noses)

Similarly, the song implies that the entire language is non-sensical words instead of actually being a full language. This is probably the biggest issue. The tribes actually had a full language for communication, not just a bunch of grunts.

It also takes something that would have very specific and special meaning, a war dance, and turns it into a party dance.

The sexism isn't great either. Forcing Wendy to be the aid since she's a girl instead of letting her join in the fun.

In some particular ways - yes. We also just don’t have all the support networks that those other countries have. I mean - we still don’t even offer universal healthcare and it looks like we won’t for at least another 10+ years. We don’t care for the common person at all. We cater to the rich.
Why should 30k people pay for redundancy just because a few loons can't keep their shooting to the range (or have guns in the first place)?
The ones I've tried or at least looked at had pretty good docs up to a limit. For simple things most of them had pretty good docs. For advanced features it was a hit-or-miss with the docs. It may say how to do the things I wanted or it may not. Or it said it in such a way it was hard for me to find the info. In some cases it might have been impossible without coding a plug-in myself but then it was a bit unclear if it was impossible or just no clearly documented.

I do see many static site generators as something that requires that you are a developer. At least you must understand html and templates (and folders and markdown) but often you end up doing things that are basically just programming.
I feel like I've spent the last 10 years seeing "boring" in headlines and thinking mundane, when actually it was referring to tunneling. Now I'm finally conditioned to think tunneling first, and this.

It's worse than that. Window managers simply cannot exist in Wayland, because the compositor is the only actor which can also do window management.

This coupling is one of the biggest design faults of Wayland. The platform-specific functionality is no longer encapsulated in a stand-alone piece of software - the compositor now must do everything, because Wayland trusts only it to do anything privileged. This leads to less choice and more restrictions. If you wanted to get X11 running on e.g. your phone, you would get the Xorg server Android app, then run the window manager you want, then run the applications you want. This is not possible in Wayland: there would need to be one per-platform app per compositor / window manager, so you would need e.g. Weston for Linux, Weston for Android, Weston for iOS, sway for Linux, sway for Android, sway for iOS, ...
Black mold in your home is totally unrelated to the case discussed in the article though.
No I appreciate that - my point is you can get better engineers that you might deserve at your startup by using a language like Clojure to entice them. I know people who work for a good discount if it’s on a tech stack they enjoy and is fairly rare to find.
>The concept of "value" for consumers has been completely twisted and I am not looking forward to seeing where this race to the bottom will end up.

For a lot of consumer tech companies, it's less about providing value to consumers and more about extracting value from them. Between vendor lock-in, privacy violations, and arbitrary one-sided changes in service, it's straight out of an abusive partner's playbook.
It’s reasonable to define some high level goals when determining whether a technology like this “works.”

I think io_uring more or less works as advertised now for the key thing it set out to do, but it removes one bottleneck in a larger system of network processing, so you can switch to io_uring, yet potentially without any other changes, a real world application can hit the next bottleneck due some adjacent architectural decision (or performance regressions as implementations are changed to accommodate an expanding envelope of uses).
Consider a Linux phone (Librem 5 or Pinephone) instead, because those do not rely on proprietary drivers, which still can force you to throw your device away at some point.
If I give you suggestions, you're just going to say, "well that's the way we've always done it and people will be confused if we change now", which is exactly what they said about C until someone decided enough was enough.

Even something as simple as the set of integers being the letter Z requires you to understand German to know why we chose Z (and not I) in the first place. Or d/dx being totally unintuitive for anyone not well-versed in differential calc. I'm quite certain that every student learning calc thinks "Well the d's just cancel out there". Granted, I've heard the intuition behind the notation and I understand why it's tolerated. Still, it seems less helpful than it could be if mathematicians weren't married to tradition.

It's not a question of being owed free content, it's a question of being able to access the content without being inundated with ads blocking the content from every direction. I give money to the content creators that matter to me (e.g., the very local newspaper, NPR, a few podcasts), but I remember the shock of seeing what life was like with a vanilla IE install on Windows with a work computer. After going to the website of the auto dealership to make a service appointment, I got continual ads for Chrysler automobiles (which means that for all the tracking the advertisers got negative value because I wasn't looking to buy).
Okay cool, I guess my question is how heavily do third party libraries feature in Lisp Works such that you’re then tied to their ecosystem?

This strikes me as wishful thinking, adblockers are such a small minority. They are just following the incentives they would always follow, adblockers or no.

They essentially decided to borrow against future trust in order to achieve a desired near term outcome. That may have been the option which led to the fewest deaths, or maybe vaccination rates would be ?% higher if they hadn't undermined their own credibility. It was (and still is) impossible to know, but I don't think thats the kind of call we want scientists to be making.

You have missed my point entirely. If your local electric generation is the same source as your car. You have not saved anything.

To reiterate again, if your local electric generation is green then things are going to be better for the environment. But if your local power plant is coal then an electric car is worse. Your car is indirectly burning coal to move. And the delivery and storage of that coal generated electric has lots of losses on the journey.

>That last statement is incorrect.

Actually it is correct. The mRNA vaccine types target specific spike proteins of the virus. So no we do not currently have a vaccine, so the previous vaccines actually offer quite little protection, (other than any coincidental overlap of proteins). But my statement about it being the same for every other infectious disease is not false. If you have ever had the flu in your life, (or different corona virus cold for that matter), you have some degree of immunity from COVID-19. Just like if you received the vaccine you have some degree of immunity from omicron and future variants.
I didn't realize that the famous VT100 terminal actually had a full 8080 microcontroller.

Has anyone tried adding extra hardware to a VT100 to enable it to run CP/M using the terminal's own 8080 CPU? ;-)

Then again you could add a Raspberry Pi inside it that would emulate most systems of that era faster than the original hardware - not to mention being able to run BSD or Linux natively and fairly capably.

edit: apparently the VT100 has an internal "Standard Terminal Port" connector which you could plug expansion hardware into, like a PDP-8 or CP/M board... or a modern microcontroller board like a Pi or a BeagleBone:

I hope more 3D models for printing and CNCing come out into open source for different type of computer/laptop cases. I can get all the electronics working with the specs that I want but I am absolute garbage at 3D industrial design (or any design for that matter).
Not everything in math is suitably expressed (or, perhaps, discussed) in an algorithmic form. Much (most?) of mathematics is operating at a level of abstraction that is far removed from an underlying machine model (in contrast to algorithms, like, well, the cryptographic algorithms you mention).

Take matrix multiplication, imagine seeing this:

C = zero(m,p)
for k from 1 to n
for i from 1 to m
for j from 1 to p
C_ij += A_ik * B_kj

Now suppose that B is invertible and we actually want to know A in terms of B and C. Oops, we can't figure it out because we've tied ourselves to this algorithmic expression. In contrast to a more typical algebraic expression which describes not a computation but a relation:

C = AB
CB^-1 = ABB^-1
CB^-1 = A

Perform that manipulation with the algorithmic description that helpfully obfuscates the relationship between the parts.

[And this is a small example, algorithmic expressions of algebraic ideas, like plain English expressions of the same, does not scale very well.]

Which ad blocker? I use ublock origin and I never see YT ads.
That is my experience as well. I had a messy, ball of mud .emacs file for a couple of decades.

When I found Doom, I dropped my .emacs and it became just a few dozen lines of org/templates config. The rest is all doom.

I even adopted Vi (A lifelong Vi avoider..) and am getting proficient with it.

Sometimes you want to get your hands dirty and configure everything. Sometimes you adopt something that is created and supported by experts and just enjoy it. Both are fine I guess.
This is exactly the case. Every time someone starts ad-blocking, someone else has to assume that ad watch for them.

Of course this isn't 1:1 parity in reality, but the ultimate manifestation of ad blocking is that.

Google had a good system a few years ago that I was probably the only sucker who paid them for it (and probably why they stopped it). You could pay a chosen amount monthly, and they would not show you ads as a result. It wasn't perfected, but the concept was good for those who understand the problem and want to work towards a solution.

> For most of my Gen X life here in the US, the only censors of note were the far right, trying to ban porn and naughty words.

That's definitely not the case in the UK however. And literally never was. The UK has a law banning "obscene publications". It has strong libel laws. It has a broadcasting regulator who can tell the BBC or any other broadcaster (including cable ones) what to do. There is no change to the status quo here.
I wonder if part of the problem is that the people who develop websites and put the ads on (developers) are largely also the people who use ad blockers so they don't realise how bad the experience is for regular users
My very dumb, 20 year old, dishwasher is perfectly capable of cutting the water when the latch is disengaged at any point in the cycle. I through utensils that got overlooked in up to 5 or so minutes after it starts and it has never caused a problem.
On a similar sentiment to the GP's, I'm owed nothing.

I will take the content as long as they don't bother blocking me, and will try to get more people to do the same. Their business model does not work if they start blocking everybody, it also doesn't work if too many people take the content without the ads. That means I'm helping them fail, what is absolutely good. The sooner they all go away, the better.

The funny part is I remember a time when even on HN the majority defended ads for a myriad of reasons, and one of those reasons was that people actually liked ads and wanted them.

This line of reasoning has completely disappeared from the mainstream. I think that's a problem for the ad companies. They have not yet lost the war, but it seems they have lost the argument.

We are in a pandemic, which is roughly akin to being in a crowded burning building. When authorities are directing you to an exit, this idiot Joe Rogan stands up and yells on his megaphone that there is an exit in the opposite direction. People are dying because of it. This is not a matter of free speech, or incomplete information, he is killing people. Public streaming services owe it to the public to not endanger them or kill them with misinformation. Rogan podcasts are pure garbage, interviewing fringe and long discredited crackpots in obviously weak attempts to offer ‘alternative’ views in a bid for more viewers. The general public is clearly not equipped to ascertain the difference, and as such he is clearly a danger to the public. It is erroneous to consider Rogan’s podcast as a ‘source’ of information, it’s an entertainment show that wants to believe it’s truthful. It’s not, and your reply proves he’s a danger to society in general. I stand with all artists that are doing what the government should have done months ago, cancel misinformation so we may exit this burning building safely.
The US does not always have stricter environmental policies than China. There are occasionally looser regulations like live stock cesspools not being required to be covered and installed with energy capture systems. Or cases where China is cracking down on crypto energy use, while the US just stares at new sites getting built in the already overburdened Texas grid.
Me either...

When I was younger I felt bad, but I also had no money.

Now I get frustrated when I can't give a website I like and want to support a reasonable amount of money...

Of course, if they feel their website is worth $120/year and I feel it's worth $10/year, there's a problem, but thats their business decision to say ad-free costs that much regardless of your level of consumption or desire for the content
I mean the man holds some very controversial views. But that doesn't mean you can just discount everything he says.
> I feel zero guilt about ad blocking.

The amount of guilt I feel about ad blocking is equal to the amount of guilt advertisers feel about bothering me with their ads.
Open ended question, is there a solution? Inherently people trying to make money from their website either have to charge people directly with money for access or indirectly by having them see/hear ads. Advertisers inherently want their ads to be seen/heard, which means there is pressure to make their ads more intrusive. Yet the more intrusive the ads become, the more annoyed the person accessing the content becomes (and thus perhaps becomes more likely to get an ad blocker). The more people that block ads, the more the website needs to make from each person who isn't blocking ads (likely meaning additional pressure to make ads more intrusive). What path are we headed down? What happens when so many people are blocking ads that the amount of value needed to be extracted from those who don't block ads is impossible to achieve? Does the internet consolidate more?

I personally use ad blockers. Right now I'm browsing with Ghostery and AdBlock. I'm surprised that only 27% of people use them currently. Makes me want to check out my parents computers when I visit next and make sure they have an ad blocker installed. But back to the questions, does this mean that the contract between websites their visitors is inherently broken? Is the current situation a race to the bottom? Is that tenable? What's the alternative?

> Give universities a blank cheque to employ scientists to work on whatever for sciences sake, not for business.

Personally, I favor the opposite—stop awarding universities the "indirect costs" part of grant awards unless they agree to cap the hiring of grant-seeking investigators. The number of grant applicants needs to be balanced with the supply of public funds, and I don't think the public is willing to pay much more than they already are. And I say this as someone who is currently grant-funded.

Hmm, what is a morally unacceptable debate? How is it defined and who agrees to the definition?

I've been trying very hard most of my life not to have mental or discussion taboos. I may find a position, request, action, etc disagreeable or even reprehensible, but I see no winning outcome in making it a taboo. And I struggle to visualize a debate itself that is morally unacceptable. Quite the opposite.

(on the other hand there are certainly debates I am tired of, amd frequently ponder how to handle people / situations that bring same tired arguments I've seen rehashed, and usually debunked, myriad times before. But that's not the same as morally unacceptable that's just me being lazy and or having limited time and energy on this earth :)
