This makes very little sense to me. Nuclear war is not a random event that might happen at any given point with some probability P. It is a decision that is made based on an evolving situation, there are not independent random event you can apply high school math to.

Also an event being rare does not mean that it is unlikely. For example a 29th of February is a rare event, if you were to think about it in terms of probabilities, there is about 0.07% of chance for it to occur on any given day. So you would conclude that there is about 1-(1-.0007)^(2*365)=40% chance to occur within 2 years. But it is obviously absurd to think this way, since the next 29th of February will happen in 2024, in less than 2 years, the probability is 100%.

You're a good husband. I did the same for my wife, and her 2012 core I7 HP Elitebook acted like it was ten years younger.

But I went a step further: the mother-in-law. She had a lower grade I3 laptop from around 2008 that took 20 minutes to boot Windows 10. It now boots in 15 seconds with a stock 512GB SSD.

I am being rewarded by both (but in very different ways).

I'm amazed that you managed to find so much negativity in Brave - a tiny player - making massive accomplishments. Unlike Firefox, Brave does not get half a billion USD of Universal Basic Income from Google every year. They are a for profit entity and need a revenue stream to fund the highly expensive browser development work.

Mozilla is on a nosedive towards fading to obscurity. I am unable to understand any parallels here.

I was in a very similar situation. At 11 I started attending to local state college during the summers. At the end of the second summer they offered us all the chance to attend full time. My parents opted to let me continue in regular high school, some of the other kids started full time at state school (I kept going during summers).

One of the kids who attended full time tried to transfer to CalTech after two years, and they rejected him, told him he wasn't well rounded enough. So he joined every club on campus and ran for President of every single one. Most did not let him because he was only 15, a few did. CalTech still rejected him. He ended up graduating from state school and going to grad school a few years later at an Ivy League school, having basically missed out on the entire undergrad experience.

I on the other hand got to do all the normal "high school" stuff while I was mostly bored in my high school classes, but then I got into Berkeley and went there with my peers. I feel like I had the better experience.

IQ is probably the most predictive factor of success in our knowledge-first society. The catch is that IQ is a fuzzy variable: its measurements heavily depend on one's mood, the particular IQ test, the food one's eaten that day, hours slept and so on. However the highest measured IQ in ideal conditions is pretty stable.
I am struggling to understand where you are coming from. Can you elaborate?

Treatment of people with mental health disorders is a super complicated problem, and is obviously better dealt with before it becomes a big enough problem for someone to become homeless, but obviously many places have a huge homelessness problem and a disproportionate number have severe mental health issues.

Some people say forcing treatment is acceptable, which as a general blanket statement I disagree with.

However if you have a person who has a severe issue like later stages of schizophrenia, dementia, etc they may be in a position that they cannot make informed consent without receiving treatment that they by definition can’t consent to. I believe that the UN decided that that would be unethical, but in this case I would disagree. In the absence of initial treatment I would not consider that a person has in fact chosen not to be treated and in failing to provide initial treatment you are in effect robbing them of the opportunity to make a long term choice.

The obvious follow on question is what you do if a person with a severe condition subsequently says no to further treatment. At that point forcing treatment is clearly unethical (LGBT were forced into “treatment” into the 70s for example). Historical options have included incarceration which functionally criminalizes anything classed as a mental health problem (see again treatment of lgbt people). You could wait until they perform a criminal act, which raises the question of why you let it get to that point, etc

It seems like all the options are bad, and forced long term treatment seems clearly wrong, incarceration in a jail seems wrong, but historically mental health institutions have not been much better (and often times worse).
I also spend most of my time analysing businesses, documents, controls etc. Then finish it with writing a report, which usually just explains the gaps.

For me, I resonated with a post around a week ago which explained someone's perspective on wanting to join a trade to do hands on work where you actually built something.
> “There’s no compassion with people with their clothes off defecating and urinating in the middle of the streets, screaming and talking to themselves,” said Newsom, a former mayor of San Francisco

We should still show compassion to the mentally ill. Get them off the streets. Use force if you must. Get them the help they need.

But they are human beings and deserve compassion.
If you liked Barbara Ehrenreich's "Nickel and Dimed,"[0] you might like a few of her unrelated books as well. I highly recommend her "Dancing in the Streets,"[1] a 5,000 year history of the deadening of European culture (at Europeans' own hands, no less) that pairs nicely with Graeber's "Debt: The First 5,000"[2], a book of similar pacing, as well as a much shorter book on the gendered professionalization/demolition of the medical practice in the medieval era titled "Witches, Midwives, and Nurses" or "W.M.N."[3]

Her "Bait and Switch,"[4] however, about the white-collar unemployment industry I found dull and unenlightening.

Just because you outsource censorship to tech companies to get around the 1A doesn't mean it's not censorship.

The "muh private companies" argument ended long ago when government officials started using it as their main platform and we applied archive rules and prevented Trump from blocking people: https://www.wsj.com/articles/president-trump-cant-block-twit...

You can't have it both ways. Let's investigate why they all decided at once to block it right before the election. Are they coordinating? Let's find out. Seems like an anti-trust issue.

Point is, it's censorship, no matter how much people try to weasel out of it.

Force won't remain limited to only those crapping, screaming and exposing themselves in public. There is great risk of such force being applied to all who are an inconvenience. This is a complex issue, but I'm certain an easy solution is a terrible solution.

Will you still support this when, perhaps, it is a friend? There is also a bit of a national housing crisis, which may not be improved by inflation, shortages and massive global shifts.

I wish we could smell our own stink and realize that the structure of our society has consequences, often exceedingly unfair and unjustified. Beauty is a noble fondness, but a treacherous god. We should consider making stronger sacrifices before violating invaluable liberties. They don't have to be unconditional tolerance, but anything dignified I suspect will require actual work. The proposed solution is weak, cruel, too easy and unfit for my conscience.
I remember a documentary on a math prodigy from the UK, he visualized numbers similarly using shapes and emotions and similar concepts. Naturally, he also hard a hard time how he “just knew” how to multiply huge numbers in his head or recite the digits of pi.

I don't think any of that would put it outside the realm of science by any stretch though - science has its gradients, where some of it is ruled by math alone and other components are more data driven/'right until proven wrong' but it all falls under the scientific tooling and approach to the world.

Almost all the ones that I know of compiled Lisp to an abstract instruction set, then had an interpreter for this written in assembler. The GC was also written in assembler. The SCHEME-79 chip [1] was sexps all the way down.

If you were doing it today with the same hardware then writing a LLVM backend for the hardware instruction set might be a useful first step. You could then write the abstract instruction set interpreter and GC mostly in C.

The electoral rating of someone outside an election is hardly relevant, it only matters on election day. On that day (in 2018) the result was (according to [1]), 77% (56M) in favour of Putin. The second candidate got 11.9% (8.6M). No doubt this guy is a narcissistic deranged dwarf, but are you suggesting he faked 48M votes?

Totally agreed, my comment was just to add meaning in case others also wondered , not a criticism. Gotta love trans-language words. My friends used to say “go hands” whenever it was time to vamanos.
Individuals are clearly punished as well. This is like saying civilians killed by a bomb weren't harmed because the intent was to harm the state.

By your logic, Ukrainian individuals aren't being harmed because Russia is invading a country, not the individuals.

Deck is a niche experimental product. Yet Nintendo didn't get where it is with conservative hardware. Since the NES they've pushed the mainstream in different directions: smooth scrolling, thumbstick, portables, dual screens, 3D portable, stylus, etc. Valve may do the same if they can deliver the polish needed.
This caught my eye. It could be a great template engine:

"This isn’t how the internet works."

Okay, here is my understanding.

Lets say I control a few assets like a website, news.com, a DNS server, and relegram, a messaging app, and control the ASs that route to them.

Let's say the target posted something to relegram. I grab to logs and gain the IP. Cool, now I have the IP.

I add the IP to a list that instructs my controlled ASs to collect latency stats during handshake protocols (could do it from the end assets but this should be easier/better).

Meanwhile I also look up who owns the blocks the IP is from, likely finding their ISP.

If it a satellite provider I could go grab a a friendly dish in a known location and add that to list as well for the baseline. I could at this point double check my seconds/meter converter by moving said dish but it likely to track with physical constants.

After getting ten thousand hits or so I take the difference between the mean baseline latency and target latency and translate it to distance with my constant. Now I know the target should be within ~x of the satellite. I also have a map with terrain so the torus becomes a circle with a hole in it.

Now I take a plane and hopefully it can fly high enough between the satellite and the circler path as to 'shadow' a statistically significant portion of the area as it goes around.
Why shouldn't it? As noted above, database servers already have most of this (security) logic in them - likely tested much better than whatever you can write on top of the database yourself. And given how many apps are basically just CRUD, why reinvent the wheel every time?
Those are kinda shit, though.
Also, the ones you're thinking of should be capacitive dropper circuits, if I'm not mistaken.

There's also the electrolytic-smoothed bridge rectifier variant.
BigClive has a lot of teardowns of such light bulbs (and non-bulb-shaped alternatives) with circuit diagrams and explanations. They're really good for learning about the various "cheap LED bulb" designs.
What's interesting about it is that it may show some evidence of synesthesia being education or culture dependent.
Using base10 for numbers is taught at an early age, when the brain is forming a huge number of associations for learning, but I don't think it's been shown that synesthesia arises purely from "nature" (genetic) origins. So with the right thoughts, anyone may be able to push themselves into this state.
you could also add custom user-created games like GeoGuessr, e.g. all the landmarks in a local city or Swiss countries
I didn’t single them out; I highlighted this instance in my reply.

That makes me realize, it would actually be an incredibly fun job to be in the team that manages the simulation/emulation stack that people tinker with to learn about this thing.

Going on a lot of presumption here (and a bit of optimism...), I would presume "don't brick it" is backed up by an appropriate level of funding to cover the training people receive before they get to touch production. In an optimal scenario (don't be wrong... don't be wrong...) this would cover component-level electrically-accurate (because radiation) logic simulation that everything gets tested on first.
This game was really fun until you figure out the insight that the card ranks you'll need are known in advance just by counting off to your left. If I know I need an Ace, a 4, a 7, a 10, etc, I can plan the whole game around calling "BS" on the ranks I don't have yet to pick up those needed cards.

At this point the game becomes like Tic Tac Toe :)
What's the point of making iOS software then? Just compile it for whatever platform one would run the emulator on. If I understand your comment correctly.

That has nothing to do with working from home though, it has to do with the pandemic. I go places during my lunchbreak in work from home now that there are vaccines and things are open again - it's so convenient, if I need to duck to the store or the chemist or I want to pick up food from a local cafe.
It's in the patent, you have auger out most of the dirt first. Think of like one of those plastic dry wall anchors that you drill a slightly smaller hole and then screw (sometime hammer, depending on style) in the anchor.

I mean... at the risk of asking a loaded question - have you tried an ssd?

Because, I'm also spoiled on RAM so I don't have to pick, but if I haaad to pick - I'd take a machine with 8gb of RAM and an SSD over 32gb of RAM and an HDD almost any day (actually - literally any day except when I'm running our full service stack at work, which needs about 12gb of RAM to be workable)

If I have a bunch of media - sure, throw it on a spinning 2tb drive or something. I'm not saying don't use cheap storage, I'm just saying... try the SSD. It costs about the same as coffee for the week.
I'll stick that in my LongNow Mayan calendar.
Then it's not for you. No shame in admitting that. For other people, though, Macbooks simply also don't make sense. Wanna run that 32-bit plugin you use in Photoshop? You're out of luck. How about some advanced Docker development? Hope you don't plan on doing it locally. Hunted by your government for whistleblowing? Probably shouldn't use a laptop that can automate the process of ratting you out.

If you're a webdev or hipster programmer chasing the most lucrative Web3 gigs, sure, buying a Macbook is probably the kind of status symbol your peers will respect you for. At the end of the day though, they're all just tools with different uses. If you can use an ARM laptop for day-to-day work, then don't let anyone stop you from doing it.

What people dislike is your "every serious developer owns a Macbook" claim. It's the sort of thing you hear from West-coast Google engineers who look around their office of L3 Javascript employees for a sample size before posting a comment. It honestly doesn't reflect the myriad of programmers you'll encounter in the world; some of the most productive 10x developers and "security people" I've met are using systems that even I would consider asinine, like NixOS, QUBES, Whonix or OpenBSD. I don't knock them, though. We judge hackers based on their skill, not their salary range, clout, and least of all by the laptop they have in their backpack.
