I've gotten into sewing lately, and I know exactly what you mean about the engineering thing. I see sewing as a tool for designing and building custom "devices", like bag inserts, covers, etc. Do you know of any resources on sewing with that perspective? I have attended meetups, shopped at sewing boutiques, etc, but every person I have interacted with has just been interesting in garments, purses, and mending. Those are also interesting sewing topics! But the design skillset is a bit different, so I have a hard time getting help with my projects.

On topic: Even with sewing as a hobby, I mostly just care about the engineering properties of materials. I knew very few of those words.

The land requirement for solar should not be so casually dismissed.

To power the US energy needs, you need an area about the size of New Jersey. Also roughly equivalent to the area taken up by roads. The interstate highway system alone has been cited as the largest public works project in history, and that's "just" asphalt.
I am 38 and so much more tired from doing this than I would have if I were ten years younger. Not sure how I could do it if I were ten years older.

I have been using mutt for triage and simple things, with Google web mail interface when necessary for e.g. HTML mail.

The workflow is ok. I get a large amount of email that I can just delete, and it's particularly nice to be able to select a bunch of cron emails with a regular expression.

In the last year it's become unreliable. When I move a message from one folder to another, it doesn't stay moved. I guess it's some error handling problem. I have lots of emails in some folders (10k).

I have thought about writing a driver for mutt that works directly against the Google API instead of IMAP, but writing REST code in C would be a slog.
This post glosses over it, but larger fields are stored via the TOAST mechanism [1], which does support compression.

I'd still suggest the overlap isn't incidental. Religions need stable or expanding societies to procreate. So ideology that leads to stable or expanding societies is strongly selected for. Religions with written texts have surprisingly low mutation rates in their ideology, but when conditions begin to favor different behaviors to promote stability, polygamy for instance, the ideology changes quickly.

As a reference to my biases, I'm a theistic agnost, I don't know, but I believe. The life of pie or secondhand lions explain the why pretty well.
If you really wanna see some frame rate variation try watching anime; you'll see a very different set of choices. More complex character designs mean more time has to be spent per frame, but the budgets are generally similar so they've gotta find ways to make do with a lot fewer drawings because there's still only so much artist time available for the budget. So you'll end up with decisions like "let's move the camera elsewhere while this character talks instead of hassling with all that lip flap", and "let's just do a traceback of this drawing and flip it with the original on some eccentric timing to just barely keep it from going dead on the screen", and then at the end of the episode there's a really awesome scene with crazy camera movement and crazy dynamic action that is clearly where at least 50% of the budget went. And once you get into the vibe of this it's really amazing, and as GenX kids raised partially on cheaply-dubbed anime have gotten into the industry we've started seeing a lot of this kind of timing happening with Western projects. (Not that we don't have Western traditions of eccentric timing, go single-frame some forties WB shorts or some Ren and Stimpy[1]).

I do not have any studies to point to but my experience is also that a stylized cartoon drawing takes more time for the viewer's brain to process. There's fewer cues for the brain to grab, and the abstracted shapes don't help either. Going slower gives the brain more time to register what the hell's going on.

Originally the frame rate choice was largely from technical and budgetary considerations but now that the medium's a hundred years old and has had waves of inspiration and influence cross the entire world multiple times, frame rate is definitely something an animator can make deliberate aesthetic choices about. Budget's still a concern though!

This reminds me of Gordon Kelly, a senior contributor, whose every articles that pointed Chrome's weakness would often headlined "Google Just Gave Millions Of Users A Reason To Quit Chrome".

>So what is actually going on here?

It actually matches the real data and studies which have been done on the topic. When men ranked photos of women on a scale of 1-10, the majority of woman were ranked in the 5 category which would indicate the average person is seen as average. While when woman ranked photos of men, the majority of men were ranked bellow 5. The data that has come out of online dating is pretty damning and says a lot more than some anecdotes about some normal men finding partners.

I wish I remembered the exact study from a few years ago because there are more details which were even more depressing but I'm less certain on.
Algorithms handle the bulk, humans make choices where the algorithm flags things.
> Online dating is toxic

Most serious relationships and marriages that I known of (including mine) that started within the last 7 years or so originate in online dating. I'm in my 40s. You might want to be a little less sure of your opinions.
Not good. Less than 3nm separation and headed straight for each other, Beech pilots at 900ft AGL and descending. This was about as close to disaster as it gets. Nice of the Beech pilots to relay the tail strike to Center, that would have been quite the fireworks show.

That's assuming the AGI designer even understands what they built. If the first AGI is built via some semi-automated bootstrapping process based on a lesser intelligence, you can't really predict how the resulting intelligence will behave.
I personally raise awareness to this because I think of all the possibilities for mobile technology that people don't even know they're missing out on, e.g. Xbox Cloud Streaming/Stadia, emulators, NFC beyond payments.

Don't expose your CSS classes to spooky action at a distance. Use a build system or CSS in JS library to hash your class names and keep them private.

It's a terrible shame that CSS relies so heavily on globals (I'm looking at you, `@keyframes`), but as programmers we should all recognize them when we see it and avoid them by any means possible.
Feminism isn’t about putting women ahead of men though. It’s about creating equity. Feminism is needed because of the ongoing power imbalance between the sexes. There are still very few arenas in which men do not enjoy the advantage.

The men’s rights stuff is toxic because it’s about conflict. It’s about pushing back against feminism, which is essentially fighting against equity. With that said, I see nothing wrong with fighting for the interests of boys and men. I, too, want to see boys succeed (I have a son!) But it’s not about his rights. It’s about his opportunities and the support and so on, that he gets.

It isn’t feminism that is holding boys and men back, it’s that we live in an inequitable society. That makes feminists allies, not enemies.

I agree with your parent commenter, kodah, that gender blaming is reductive. I recognize that the way I phrased my views could have been better: perhaps a more constructive way of putting it is to say that the present situation is one that men have both the responsibility to improve, and the power to do so.
I think this is a prescriptive/descriptive thing? Like these are things that have historically been associated with masculinity. That's not good, but we also can't really change that unless we accept that there is a problem.

In this way, "toxic masculinity" is a useful descriptive term for a set of historically masculine-associated traits that are used to justify bad behavior both by and towards men ("boys will be boys", male-disposability, all kinds of sex-adjacent stuff, stereotypically masculine ways to (not) process feelings, attitudes around aggression, etc.).

Like I think a bunch of those are toxic traits, and I think all of them have been historically associated with and perpetuated as a part of what it means to be masculine. None of this does (or should) proscribe what masculinity should be. And also importantly, and what sometimes gets lost, these things being perpetuated aren't solely men's fault, and they certainly aren't any particular man's fault. But, a lot of them are perpetuated in historically/predominantly male spaces, so addressing many of them does predominantly fall onto individual men to speak up about and address when they happen. But it's equally important for role models in media to demonstrate nontoxic traits and that's obviously not just men's responsibility, not can you or I do much about it short of voting with our wallets.
The comment was about cultural gender roles, not anatomy.
Sony’s Gran Turismo AI thrashes the world’s best drivers
I have been doing embedded linux for 22 years and sadly Openembedded/Yocto has been the worst build system ever. It's the Gentoo for embedded(where is Gentoo nowadays), over-engineered so much for most use cases unless you work at Windriver or Amazon that deals with lots of different boards from different vendors and you have unlimited resource to work with the complexity.

If I got a codebase that uses Yocto/Openembedded, the first thing I do is to find the related patches there and convert them to buildroot/debian/openwrt/LTIB(old stuff)/etc depends on the hardware spec. I wasted too much time when there is a bug in Openembedded that could take forever to debug, layer over layer, override over override on those meta mazes, it always feels like you're fighting with openembedded/yocto itself instead of getting your work done. I since have been avoiding openembedded/yocto at all costs.

You only say that because of rigid thinking about what boys and girls are.

When someone says to a boy "stop crying like a girl" he's displaying a rigid definition of what a boy is. Instead of saying that some boys can be very sentimental too, you're saying he's non-base-2. That's no different from the person saying boys shouldn't cry.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flutazolam, from Japan. It has an elimination half-life of about 3.5 hours compared to 11-16 for xanax. Valium is around 50 hours IIRC.

I also tried etizolam, which has a half-life around 3.5 hours, but its active metabolite has a half-life around 8, so the effect tended to hang around a bit into the next day. Apparently flutazolam also has an active metabolite that lives longer ... but it never seemed apparent.

At the time both of these were freely and legally importable into the UK where I lived. This is no longer the case, and that's probably for the best - RC benzo use was getting to epidemic levels.

(incidentally, reading up on this, I have realised that xanax is not a lot longer lasting as I initially said, it's actually pretty short acting for a benzodiazepine, around 1.5-2x as long as flutazolam AFAICT)
At the very least I would have expected money to help with superconductor research.
I’d say it’s about as risky as video games or smartphones.
Of course it has spec. Just one more property in 200+ of them.
That is no-brainer to add new property ... Problem is that each property introduced that way ads new dimension in compatibility matrix.
Btw, 1 ton = 2000 lbs, not 1000.
I love this and I'm going to use it for fancy comments in code and in the browser console. It'd be really cool if you could integrate something like http://www.figlet.org/ for inserting ASCII text art.

I wish I had known about this tool when I was building this little browser game https://replit.com/@aMoniker/Gush because all the levels & game objects are generated from multiline strings of ascii symbols, and it just took too long to do manually.

Glue reputation information to the reviews. Maybe have an adjustable tool to filter on reputation metrics. Obviously that means the system can be used as an oracle, but it avoids the pay-to-play possibilities.
Amusingly, there's the same trap here as with the "who created the world" problem.

Sure, religious people get their morals largely from their religion. But where do the morals of the religion come from?
They're the same almost 100% of the time.
I am not sure why you are arguing with me. I am paraphrasing the article which you seemed to have misunderstood in your original comment.

Of course, this is a hypothetical because the app developers are fragmented while Apple is a single entity. The blog argues that to be fair, Apple should donate 30% of its iPhone revenue to app developers as an iPhone without 3rd party apps is fundamentally crippled. The meta argument is that Apple taking a 30% cut of app revenue is fundamentally unfair.

Apple has set a new precedent with the 30% cut. Operating systems such as windows, macOS and unix that came before iOS never demanded a 30% cut of app revenue installed on the device.

Would you also be supportive of Microsoft and Unix vendors demanding 30% of revenue generated by applications on their operating system - starting 2022?
White papers are to CxOs what TED talks are for the uninformed, an easy way to get someone up to speed on a highly complicated subject, and more fool them (meaning the uninformed) if they think it means they are now an expert, which sadly a lot do (think they are now an expert).

I kind of miss the IBM ITSO Redbooks. No idea if they still maintain the same quality today, but in the 90s and pre-internet/google/wiki etc, they were fonts of deep knowledge.
Another great example of this is environment variables... The program which relied on user-specific TERM or LANG variable would work fine if started interactively, but would fail on machine reboot or if started over ssh non-interactively.

Those kinds of things bit me enough time I eagerly welcomed upstart and then systemd when they became the default.
Yep, made error as I was editing it xamples. The underlying idea stands- bits get used up very quickly in many CAD algorithms.
I looked at the top 100 posts right now and only saw one about COVID, towards what I gather would be positive light in your eyes anyways. If I missed 6 that'd still be 10% of how often you feel the need to "chuck bricks" instead of talk about relevant content. Nobody's account is getting shadowbanned or rate limited for occasionally going off topic, the comparison to actions on the site's to actions on your content to your content is apples to oranges. Besides nowhere in the guidelines does it claim or encourage equal representation of off-topic conversation, it says to flag and ignore. Engaging the content doesn't "level the playing field" or anything like that it just negates your downvote/flagging and duplicates the problem.

If we all flag off-topic content and submit on topic content the ratio and discussions will actually get better. If we focus our accounts on replying to such content constantly it doesn't negate the problematic content it increases the amount.
You can't average percentiles - it's not mathematically meaningful, so your number will move depending on random details. E.g., if you changed your load balancing algorithm, and then observed the number go down, you can't conclude that latency was improved, because you changed how the requests are aggregated and it affects the result in random directions.

(You may get a usable number if all servers are more-or-less equivalent and events are randomly distributed, but then you're basically assuming the thing you want to validate.)

I'm not an expert but I know two correct ways: collect the records of all individual requests and compute 90% just once on the whole set (doable if there aren't too many requests - modern machines are quite powerful), or generate per-server histograms which can be merged safely.
How are you so easily making the distinction between "person in power doesn't want to post photos because he doesn't like them" and "person in power doesn't want to post photos because it shows something they don't like"?

In retrospect I agree with you actually, not my best and brightest moment.

Very random, but in the 80s, years after my Grandfather immigrated to the U.S. from Denmark he started a company called Sidewinder which made ladders that wheel/move around the sides of farming silos for painting/repair, etc. Funny to see it show up in your comment 40 years later :)
How does this happen? Shouldn’t the pilots see the approaching aircraft on radar (and assuming 3nm visibility) also see the approaching aircraft. This feels like a situation where a lot of things went wrong with multiple crews.

> Not only are many things in the economy zero-sum, in the case of labor, even if the economy is humming at 150%, it's trivial to imagine a scenario where the man and the woman are both earning 75% of what they would have without the other sex in the labor force. Both are worse off, yet the capital owners are better off and it gives the illusion that everything is going great.

> The illusion is so good that we've divorced productivity from wage for 50 years, made tons of women miserable and no one so much as batted an eye.

I don't understand why you can't type the address of the page you want to go to, or click a link to get there (or provide a link if you're the website owner)?

It looks like you're forcing people to go to a page other than the one you select, but that would be really crap, so it can't be that ... so what are you doing?

Makes no sense to me, but then I hate websites that want me to install a wrapper around a web renderer just so I can access content that's really only a website ... is that what's going on?

Also not good is the fact that they climbed to altitude (before knowing about the tailstrike?). There's been a few accidents from tailstrike damage causing rear bulkhead failure and catastrophic depressurization.

Did you date during Covid? I did. Every possible avenue to meet partners was closed except...apps. i am extremely active and extroverted, but yoga classes went online, the gym shut down, the bars closed, concerts were cancelled. Dance studios shut their doors. How exactly were your expecting dating to work for the last few years?

I would not underestimate how much the process of dating and meeting romantic partners has shifted because of that, even as we re-open. the stigma is mostly gone and there is little reason not to at least be present there.
There are quite a few. The one with dawgyg is really good.
