Some would say it really isnt an orbit. Orbit presumes a single attractive force (gravity or magnetic) from one body while another moving body is held away by momentum. The circular path around an L point is more a confluance of attractive forces from two bodies. The object is not held up by momentum rather than by balanced pulls of multiple attractive forces. If there is no minimum required velocity to maintain altitude, it isnt really an orbit imho.

That line of thinking is why you need gigabytes of RAM just to check social media, all for a few kilobytes of text. HTML and CSS already give you all the visuals you'll ever need to display a little text.

You plug it in? It's literally plugged into your TV already it's not a big deal to plug the AC adapter in the other side. The PSP Go had a dock for connecting to your TV and supported using a DS3 controller for TV play. Of course nobody bought a Go and nobody bought a dock for it. But they did kinda sorta get the concept.

A co-worker was adamant we needed to spend six months to re-write the application we were responsible for. As near as I could tell, his reasons were the following:

- The application was complicated,
- The application was written in Ruby, and he didn't like Ruby.
- Golang was way cooler.

Fortunately our director pointed out that there was no customer value to a rewrite, so the idea was shelved.
Once you create this safe environment where Senior is there for difficult moments and everything is under your plan "that I know what they're going to fail on." you will create greenhouse plants that cannot survive on their own. In addition, you will get distracted from higher value work.

In my current role, I help 10-15 people weekly across multiple teams and domains. After a period of time, I discovered that it was a mistake. I can see that their's personal grown is limited, they would more likely lean on domain expert instead of becoming expert themselves. Now I am tired and distracted, partially because of lack of seniors.
A tiny sliver of people, relative to the podcast audience size of today, did that. The people who would still do it now is still a tiny sliver of the potential audience.

Heck I do it, but I do it for very few podcasts that I already know I like, mainly because discovery is so awkward.
Anti-vaxx != mRNA-hesitant != anti-mask != Trump supporter.

You are conflating so many issues that I don't know where to start. Trump is pro-vaccine, many mRNA-hesitant are not Republicans, many mRNA-hesitant are religiously wearing masks. Real masks, not bandanas promoted by Democrats.

Oh, and virtuous Gavin Newsom attempts to kill an immunocompromised person by going maskless (at least that would be the headline if a Trump supporter had done the same):

The worst state in Tetris is the endless stream of "zig zag" shapes, but at least with those you can alternately sacrifice and clear rows, usually.

With this, I am not convinced that the pieces are allocated in a way that remains playable. I have cleared a couple of rows (in different games!) but there just seems too much stacked against me for progress.

It could be due to my eyesight; the board area needs visual hints. It could also be due to the controls, which seem like deliberate hardship.

It is cool, but it's too difficult to be fun; there's almost no recovery possible from accidents and there are too many ways to have accidents.
Illegal to force a paying tenant out.
Your comparison does not work. You can be taken away from a supermarket in that instance. You can legally come back to the same supermarket in the future. And even if the owner decides you are not welcome in his store, you can go to any other store.

Banning a person from ever flying again is not the same thing at all.
No - ignorance is downplaying the results of giving quacks a megaphone and an endorsement.

So the credentials themselves are verifiable.

But in most cases, wouldn't you need to also verify the identity of the person presenting them?

I assume this is where the "payload" field comes into play but due to the brevity, the security seems questionable.

With several examples of valid credentials and the available info, it shouldn't be that difficult to work out the signing key and start forging credentials.

Unless I misunderstand, this is interesting but it appears to only be a small part of the verification process.
If you are creating a Twitter app, and letting users login via Twitter and then using those user tokens to make API calls, that’s a good first step, I am not sure if you are doing this already.

Other than that, I would just make sure you position your service as something that benefits Twitter, describe it as something that allows you to create better tweets or engage with your followers better. The internet is filled with apps that sell Twitter data like Mention.com, SocialRank, and Social Animal.
> it works so much better than other streaming services

Personally I've found Stadia, GeForce Now, and Microsoft's new offering, all work well.

> It seems they misunderstood what was needed in the space and then just walked away, instead of adjusting.

Agreed. Google seriously misjudged what people want, but they could just change course. Steam was hated when it was first released, after all. Specifically:

* No one wants their games purchases to be tied specifically to Stadia. GeForce Now does the obviously right thing here, running games bought through the 'normal' storefronts.

* Emphasising 4K makes no sense at all. Gamers who are seriously invested in graphical quality are unlikely to be interested in streaming.

* Commit to support for 'standard' (or at least, commonplace) game controller devices. Don't make yet another non-standard controller that no one asked for. OnLive did the same thing years ago, apparently many of those controller are now paperweights. [0]

* And of course when half the discussions about Google in general, and Stadia in particular, are about Google's inability to commit to projects for more than a couple of years, don't then go and prove them right.

That article is actually a bit wrong.

First, that particular change was part of the 2018 FAA reauthorization act (congress did it - see https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/PLAW-115publ254), but they link to the DOT regulations done much later.

It's true it was a response to David Dao.

But it was actually never allowed, even before that. The airlines just liked to argue about it and be a pain in the ass, so they added a line to the law about it.

In the case of David Dao specifically - the flight was not oversold, so they had zero leg to stand on.

(Now, once they asked him to leave, he needs to leave, but they did not have a right to ask him to leave)

Looked up the definition of censorship: the suppression or prohibition of any parts of books, films, news, etc. that are considered obscene, politically unacceptable, or a threat to security.

Some definitions have narrowed it's purposes to just "offensive", this one was slightly broader.

Given this meaning, Spotify's action is on the line of security and safety. JRE is taking heat for misinformation about covid, specifically about vaccines and alternative treatments, as well as his history of having platformed Alex Jones.

I'd say preventing snake oil salesmen from selling their products in your market due to safety concerns is a valid employment of censorship. People could actually die due to believing some of these extreme guests. Obviously, legally there is zero problem here since a private company can do as it wishes, freedom of speech doesn't give the freedom to dictate to companies what they must sell.

"Occasional" is generous I think.

This is the best explanation I've heard of the show's appeal: Back when I was a kid you didn’t need Joe Rogan. Your best friend had a 27 year-old brother who was a fucking loser who would smoke pot in a room with blacklight posters and tell you that the Mayans invented cell phones.
True but it is highly regulated on both sides.
This [1] is the video I want people to watch and respond to. I think he makes some salient points. The government is influencing the censorship.

Rolex is super expensive, how much does it cost to replace parts, or refurbish one?
Can you two do this shit somewhere less public? How embarrassing
I agree… Republic screwed up here in allowing the passengers to board before sorting out the crew seats.

But, would this passenger have acted any differently if they had to ask him to leave under one of the acceptable conditions? Based on his reasoning, I highly doubt it.

It’s not uncommon on the type of aircraft operated by Republic that after boarding, they need to vacate a few seats based on fuel requirements (changing weather). I’ve had times we taxi, then return to the gate to offload passengers because the wind changed directions. I’ve many times seen passengers get upset, but the system the airlines use to select passengers is fairly objective. Based on fare type, when you purchased, etc.

Also, from a legal perspective, once the airline asked him to leave, even if they broke the rules it’s still trespassing. If the airline asks me to leave, I’m not arguing. I leave and handle the situation with customer service. I’ve had this happen. And I’ve been “bumped” incorrectly before, and well compensated after.

Also… I agree with the airlines reasoning that they needed to move a crew. If they can’t position a crew, that’s 150 bumped passengers with a significant domino effect (potentially four or five doctors… that did the right thing and bought the appropriate fares) rather than just four.
It's not censorship, it's just a publication strategy. It's editorialising content they bought and paid for, whether they publish their own property or not is up to them.
That's not what EEE was about and nobody is arguing that private repos are open source. I think you're intentionally ignoring my point...

I don't know.

But even setting one ape per IP address is still quite hands on and involved investment, you have to know how to do it or you have to hire and pay someone who knows how to do it.

Then you still have some operation cost as you probably cannot assign whole IP block to a single server and keeping server running still costs money.

So I was only think about situation where you simply buy like /24 block and keep it.
It's possible Rogan hasn't said anything yet because he's going to try and sue.
Depends on the market for the software. Personal experience of those proposing rewrites usually is tainted with NIH syndrome. Different strokes for different folks but refactoring to modularize for targeted rewriting is more viable. New code means new maintenance headaches and probable maintenance on legacy codease.
Indeed. And this happened after a very specific carve-out to understood freedom of association law via the Civil Rights Act. And with good reason! But it was controversial then and in some circles it still is. The CRA curtailed the freedoms of many to give greater freedom to all in the form of equal treatment regardless of [insert full list of inherent traits here], not just under the law, but in business also. Prior to it, all the discriminations you listed were legal.

If you think we should further carve into people's freedoms to associate (or, in this case, freedom of the press to publish or refrain from publishing Rogan) in the interests of broader freedom, what should that law look like and on what underlying philosophy should it be based?

> That my web browser process can read my windows clipboard is fine, what’s important is that it prevents the web pages it has loaded from doing the same.

To be clear for others who may be reading this, this statement isn't a hypothetical, web browsers do prevent web pages from reading the clipboard.
Law is informed by ethics. If you are locked together in a metal tube that might be flying with a bunch of people it's ethical to postpone raising your issues till you are out of it. And it's only ethical to let the people who run it to decide where you should be removed from it.
There's a big difference between 'having this content on your platform,' and 'paying $100m for exclusive rights.'
Seems pretty awful to suggest that the government-managed 'no-fly' list should be used for anything after watching how poorly it was used and abused as a security measure. But considering the airlines look to the government to solve their financial problems, it's no surprise they would look to the government to solve their passenger problems as well. I assume begging for government intervention has become an airline CEO reflex, at this point.

Bureaucracy, security theater, and airline/airport ineptitude has turned flying into a painful, regrettable process. Add shrinking seat space and airport and airplane booze to the mix and you've got a recipe for stress, discomfort, and short tempers.

I suspect booze is actually the primary culprit. I've flown a few hundred flights in my time and only witnessed two, rather tame, incidents that caused people to be kicked off flights or caused in-air arguments. In one case the culprit was very drunk. The other case the culprit was very hung over.

It's true that once they asked him to leave, he needed to leave.
I also sympathize with the need to move crew (they should add it to the TICKETS act exceptions)

Exactly why I listen to him. What makes you think we all want to only listen to mainstream opinions filtered by media "experts" and journalists? Also I'm absolutely fascinated by some of the fringe people and their ideas, particularly Graham Hancock, Randall Carlson, Robert Schoch, i.e. the ancient civilization stuff. Literally nobody else in the media discusses these things with so much earnestness as Joe Rogan.
Do these studies replicate the idiotic process of giving everyone a drink so 90% of the people in the confined space take of their mask to snack and drink?
It’s almost like Joe Rogan is the one doing the censoring by refusing to host guests who are actual, credentialed experts in their respective fields.
Sure, and if they made up safety as an excuse with no valid basis I'm sure they would still lose just as much in the court of public opinion, and actual court

Yeah… it’s sort of like doctors routinely overbooking appointments, and you have to wait four hours after your scheduled time to see the doctor.

I wonder if the doctor on this plane did this as well?
I'm not sure I am in favour of a no-fly list, however, flying (unlike other examples in this thread; walking across the street, going to a supermarket etc) is not a basic human need. You (and many others do) do not need to ever fly in your life to live a happy and fulfilled life, without any pressure (you could never visit a supermarket but that's actually much harder; most people will never fly in their lives automatically anyway). For most people it is a minor inconvenience if they could never fly again and a minority will have to find another job. A list like it would have little or no impact on anything basically for by far most people on earth. So the question is, is having the list so beneficial for enough people (who are in these planes where repeat offenders kick up a stink) to go through the trouble of creating one?
Prions self-replicate. Are they concious?
Also not a software engineer but I do believe that software engineers have a very good workflow. I've been trying to figure out what the equivalent of a pull request could be for non software engineers (like hardware development). Is anybody aware of people who have tried to do something like this?
I was on a flight just last night leaving LAX on which two adult passengers decided - 5 minutes after leaving the gate, before we got to the runway - that they would take off their masks and refuse to put them back on.

The plane returned to the gate, a security agent came on board, removed them (no force needed). Then we had to confirm their baggage was off the plane, get new paperwork, push back again, adjust takeoff slot, etc.

We wasted 40 minutes of time for the ~100 people on the plane. Some may have missed connecting flights.

While I don't think a lifetime ban from civil aviation is warranted, I think a significant fine and a temporary ban would be appropriate.

Correct. This page explained it nicely: https://nigerianscholars.com/tutorials/wave-optics/polarizat...

"Vertically polarized light is preferentially refracted at the surface, so that the reflected light is left more horizontally polarized" and you use vertically polarised sunglasses to filter out the reflected horizontally polarised light.

Yes and no. You’re right that to many want to censor everyone they disagree with.

In this case, sure Rogan is just an idiot, but he’s honestly allowed to be. Spotifys competition, with Google and other only caused problems because Spotify was dumb enough to pay Joe Rogan $100 million for an exclusive podcast. By doing so they went from just being a platform to having an editiorial responsibility.

Had Spotify not paid Joe Rogan, they could have defended their position as “just a platform provider” who shouldn’t interfer with content.
I think he meant before entering his class they didn’t know their way around a computer.
I wonder if JRE really cares about the money anymore, he has been earning a lot of money for a long time. Chances are his investments are earning him more than the podcast these days and it may be that the ability to reach so many more people with his message through Spotify outweighs the monetary incentive. However I would also not be surprised if some of his capital is in fact invested in Spotify.

Also the 100 Million deal from Spotify was for 3 years, not that it makes much difference but he was earning 20 million per year using other outlets before signing the exclusive deal with Spotify.
So…

- They already agree you should discount concerns in proportion to how far they are unto the future.

- You’re already aware of this agreement.

- You shift the focus of the debate in a way that makes you look right about something (discounting future worries) even though your opponent was equally right.

- All because, though they never wrong on that point, they didn’t “feel” the truth enough.

Yeah, that’s pretty much a textbook example of how to showboat at the expense of a productive dialogue. Don’t do it unless status is more important to you than understanding.

Reminds me of that scene in Thank You For Smoking where the dad shows he can “prove” chocolate is better than vanilla because “freedom good”. [1]

(Sorry for the analogy — even if you agreed that such behavior is toxic, maybe you didn’t “feel it enough”, and you think that’s a valid reason to make it.)

“airline staff could fly for free”

It’s not that simple. This was a crew being sent to operate another plane. If they can’t move the crew, that could potentially cancel several other flights, and affect hundreds of other passengers.
