All of these fancy mech keyboards miss one key problem - the mouse still needs to be clicked and therein lies the source of numerous strains and injuries. I’ve tried several mech keyboards and my last one was a KeyChron 3, but recently I got tired of issues with my ultra wide monitor and returned to working on my 16”
MacBook Pro and realized what a relief it is not have to deal with a mouse, because the built in trackpad feels so great, and I find myself looking not as much for keyboard shortcuts.

Anyway I wonder if there’s a set up that combines the benefits of a mech keyboard with a trackpad conveniently placed right below and feel as “natural” as when using a MacBook Pro (or similar laptop with built in trackpad).

Long before the censorship, when they got plenty of leverage to meaningfully resist it, Yandex was one of the first companies supporting the "Safe Internet League", along with Vimpelcom and others. They were the first to run to Kremlin in an attempt to strike a deal to guarantee themselves a place under the sun in a brave new world, long before the first censorship laws were even discussed.

Yandex picked the sides long ago, and now they are paying for being on the wrong side of the history. They aren't just complicit in censorship somehow, they are the censors themselves.
Your argument doesn't make sense. If TSMC are the only people who can fab them, why would they been concerned about Nvidia going elsewhere? If there is an elsewhere, that's where the chips can be fabricated.

One issue you should consider is that the government can exert soft power on these companies.

The same people who regulate, pass laws, and appoint prosecutors who oversee litigation against big tech, also hold hearings and blame social media for fake news and extremism. There have been explicit calls to clean up their content or face regulation. That starts to implicate government censorship.

Google doesn't give a fuck about election integrity. They do business all around the world in places without elections. They use slave labor. But they are afraid US politicians might do a privacy crack down.
the conservatives in Pennsylvania supported the change in the law that allowed for mail-in ballots.

Traditionally, older Pennsylvanians support conservative candidates. And with the state's population skewing older, Republicans in the state realized the thing that could dampen votes for their candidates was that the state's ancient, overly-tight restraints on what constituted a valid excuse for an absentee ballot meant that older Pennsylvanians who were shut in in nursing homes and couldn't find transportation to the polls increasingly wouldn't be able to vote for their candidates.

It was one of those bipartisan pieces of legislation that passed because Democrats believed the more of the population voted, the more would vote for them, and Republicans believed supporting the elderly's right to vote meant more Republican votes. In the end, they were probably both right.

Point is, the state Supreme Court rightfully saw through it when the people who'd supported the law in the first place called foul, but only in the third election the law was used, when their candidate wasn't the one who won.

... well, their candidate for President. An awful lot of their down-ticket candidates won. Which would be a weird thing to happen if the election had been rigged, wouldn't it?

If you are a male in Ukraine, you are essentially enlisted at this point. Heck, prisoners are being released to fight.
I can't speak for the original poster, but Bantu as a word has pergoritive associations, which mean it's not commonly used today.

In South Africa during apartheid, Bantu was used as a synonym for Black. The "self governing" regions were known as Bantustans and so on.

Like with most words, Bantu has a neutral actual meaning, but it's been corrupted by use and would not typically be used by a polite (white) person today - at least in Southern Africa.
>What part of Marx's analysis of capitalism do you think caused people to adopt a victim mentality?

Not Marx's analysis of capitalism, but rather Marx's creed from each according to their ability, to each according to their needs. This became the slogan of the Marxist movement which rejected the prior socialist creed of to each according to their contribution.

If people's reward is independent of their contribution and instead a function of their needs then it incentivizes presenting oneself as the least capable, since those who do so are the ones for whom the least will be asked of. Adopting a victim mentality and presenting oneself as a victim of some kind is a fairly inexpensive way to maximize the receipt of ones needs while minimizing ones contribution.

One of my first jobs was for a man whose parents were quite wealthy. I found his business decisions to be incomprehensible until I understood that his business was basically something he could point at so his parents would give him more money. Something internal to their family, I guess. He would have been quite fine with doing nothing at all, but then his parents would have cut him off.
I love how "story points" aren't supposed to represent days, yet conveniently everyone winds up with 10-ish over their 2 week sprint, and it is totally micromanaged. Meanwhile none of the non-technical "product people" are ever asked to account for their time like this.
I work with a lot of fraud teams at a FinTech company, and we have the same exact problem. If you give out too much information around what caused the enforcement action, people are able to figure out the exact formula used to trigger a risk check, and will float right under it.

It’s a really hard problem.
5 countries' support if you count Russia itself: North Korea, Belarus, Eritrea, Russia, and Syria.

There were 35 abstentions, including the world's two most populous countries, India and China. According to https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2022/3/3/unga-resolution-agai... the other 33 were Algeria, Angola, Armenia, Bangladesh, Bolivia, Burundi, CAR, Congo, Cuba, El Salvador, Equatorial Guinea, Iran, Iraq, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Laos, Madagascar, Mali, Mongolia, Mozambique, Namibia, Nicaragua, Pakistan, Senegal, South Africa, South Sudan, Sri Lanka, (the rest of) Sudan, Tajikistan, Uganda, Tanzania, Vietnam, and Zimbabwe. Additionally, no vote is listed for Azerbaijan, Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Eswatini, Ethiopia, Guinea, Guinea-Bissau, Morocco, Togo, Turkmenistan, Uzbekistan, and Venezuela, totaling 12 more countries.

These 52 countries include the majority of the world's population and I think oil resources, but only about 30% of world GDP and 15% of terrestrial land area.

(Pleasingly, the UN seems to have licensed the graphic of the vote results under a Creative Commons license.)

Likely if it looked like Russia was winning, some of those countries would declare in its favor, but the general principle is that those who can avoid getting embroiled in a conflict suffer less from it than those who are directly involved. Sometimes, as with the Melians, the victorious power wreaks vengeance on them afterwards for their neutrality, but not usually.
That is a decent factual YouTube video but it is laser focused on the title - what does Russia get out of invading Ukraine. There is no discussion at all of atrocities or moral controversies... Does the advertised curiosity stream series go into more details on that?
procmail is now on GitHub, so perhaps you could contribute there rather than reimplementing?

Maybe hundreds is too much but 100 billion spent over years is not necessarily an exaggeration. Google and Cruise together have spent like 20B to get to where we are right now (easily googled) which IMHO is not the 95% mark where the returns get much harder. The cars are heavily geofenced and need help from service personnel regularly.

Correct me If I am wrong but getting to the point where humans are completely unnecessary is still a research problem. We need more research and more breakthroughs which costs a lot of money and is non-linear (you are not guaranteed results). It could very easily take 100B to get to a point where a car can ferry people anywhere they want with zero human assistance (no service personnel to guide out of traps etc).

>Since when has software or even advanced AI research ever cost that much to develop?

Since now? If software is eating the world, you should expect software research to also eat up a lot of money. As the low hanging fruit is picked, further gains are going to cost a lot more.

I keep reading this, but is this just a US issue? I assume people in other countries can look and clone these?

Given close to half the worlds population live in India and China, and the US make up < 5% of the worlds population, this doesn't seem like a big concern.
It's not in the article but it is still a well-known fact: https://www.britannica.com/place/Ukraine/The-election-of-Vol... Zelensky ran on a platform that included reconcilation with Moscow and which was neither pro-EU nor anti-Russian.
Agreed…the hypocrisy of these decisions grows increasingly outrageous each day. For example, the reasoning behind the banning of Donald Trump from Twitter was that his rhetoric was “dangerous,” in that it may have encouraged/not discouraged the January 6 riot. On Tuesday (March 1), a Russian official threatened actual war over the economic sanctions the world is taking against his country [1]. His account is still active and the tweet is still up.

Nobody is talking about the elephant in the room: remote work has led to a lot of people slacking off, working less, doing errands, taking more time for lunch, etc. while you may not do this, I think we vastly underestimate how many people are using remote work as an opportunity to work less, and coast through the day

What's interesting (to me, at least) is that there's an (signed) ROA for 31.148.149/24 and AS212463 is listed (IRR) as a valid origin AS -- AS35004 isn't.

All things considered, though, I'd find an explanation of "yeah, didn't have time to update the route objects yet" to be completely acceptable.

Same situation with 95.47.59/24, by the way.

> There is no districts or gerrymandering at the Presidential level. It’s State wide.

You make it sound like the number of states has always been the same, and cannot change. In reality, Congress gets to decide which states to add (and which potential states to deny), and it does so with deliberate consideration of how the electoral votes would be affected.

One could even argue that states gerrymander their own electoral vote by choosing to give all their electors to the plurality winner within their state, when they could choose to assign electors proportionally instead. They don't literally draw up per-elector districts to produce this skewed result, but the result is the same as a very skilled after-the-fact gerrymander, so I think it's a reasonable comparison.

Anyway, I wasn't just talking about gerrymandering at the Presidential level. The problem exists in the individual state legislatures too (although it's hard to calculate an average across different states), and in Congress. For example, an interesting analysis[0] from 2016 found that:

> In the past four congressional elections, then, Republicans, as the party with the majority in the House, received a “seats bonus,” wherein members of their party secured a larger share of the seats in the chamber than the share of votes won nationwide.

More and more I have the feeling that we focus a lot on the freedom to say some political things (“the 2020 election was rigged”), and accept stuff like jail for breaking DRM or life breaking monetary amounts in penalty for copyright infringement as some benign issue we should strive to solve, but if we can’t that’s just too bad, gotta live with it.

I’m not saying I’d live in China, but I feel we’re putting too much credit in our own system. Even comparing ourselves to China doesn’t feel productive, we all have our local issues and should probably focus on solving them.
That would get oil in like 5 years. Same with new leases it would get new oil far in the future and locked in far in the future. That is not what we need.

Users have just as much right to complain about policies they find ridiculous as they do to leave.
Absolutely agree. The company I worked from had a persistent problem with someone stealing customer details by buying AdWords targeting our brandname with a fake phishing site. We would report it, 2-3 days later Google would take it down. Then the next day, they'd be back with a different phishing site. At what point is Google just complicit?
Was it meaningfully illegal in Russia anyway?
1. People without content share video on the internet and even sell it on plenty of sites. You might as easily not organically get it front of as many people who aren't explicitly looking for it but you can certainly share it and your content being unpopular doesn't imply that they have a monopoly.

2. Regarding the shopping mall they found the CA state constitution not the US constitution protected their right to promote nazi literature at the mall. It is also completely bonkers nonsense and invention. It is in fact the exact sort of judicial invention our current majority claims to be against it says.

> Every person may freely speak, write and publish his or her sentiments on all subjects, being responsible for the abuse of this right. A law may not restrain or abridge liberty of speech or press.

It nowhere says that the mall ought to provide a venue. Notably it says you may publish not someone else must publish for you with their ink and paper.

This is just CA making up law from whole cloth to suit their disposition.
Very effective presentation. It looks fantastic. Will be good value at $75 for some people but not for me with so many other great mono fonts available (many with code ligatures). Probably better for designers than coders. With small fonts for everyday I don't see any big difference in readibilty beyond something like Fira Code unles you are very particular. Beyond that it is mostly taste (or lack of) but then I currently use Comic Code Ligature so I am clearly crazy.

It depends what freedoms you are talking about. In a communist system you wouldn't have the freedom to own somebody else's house and charge them rent, for example. It's interesting how we throw around concepts like "left" and "right", or "liberal" and "conservative", either not understanding what they mean, or having many different understandings. I'm puzzled about how we manage to communicate at all, but maybe we don't.
As someone who manages both SEO and PPC campaigns I don’t think that’s true. SEO is a subset of SEM and the “blackhat tactics” that SEO’s can use against competition are dramatically different than those used in the PPC world.

He's being subjected to a federal criminal investigation. There is a bit more there than "simply being on a board". It is a big story and deserves public investigation to find out what was going on. The world is currently teetering on the edge of a Russia-Ukraine * war spiralling in to a US-Russia war. It is materially interesting what business connections the US president has with (famous for being corrupt I might add) Ukraine. Especially if they involve cash for influence. These things matter.

And, frankly, the reason these left-leaning outlets were suppressing the story was because to a lot of people the situation does meet the standard of ipso facto corruption. It seems clear that the people who were interacting with Hunter thought they were buying influence in the US political apparatus, probably the executive given his father's position; otherwise the decisions don't make a lot of sense. To a lot of people that basically is corruption. Although I doubt it is unusual in the US Congress if we poked around a little.

EDIT, was Russia-US war. My bad.

That's because opening and writing to arbitrary files is marked a safe operation in Rust, and sometimes Rust programs open files whose filename were supplied by untrusted, potentially malicious input. And as said in the other comment, this can lead to UB: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/32670 (it's Linux here that is at fault, really, for offering a hugely unsafe API through the filesystem), so, we could imagine a paranoid (but technically correct) version of Rust where the APIs for opening and/or writing to a file were marked as unsafe.

But, since the operations in actual Rust are marked as safe, the compiler doesn't provide any checks here: we can cause UB in code without any unsafe { }. Moreover, checking if the path starts with /proc isn't enough to make the UB go away: procfs can be mounted on any dir, there can be bind mounts further obscuring the file resolution, etc.

This means that if you really care about memory safety (and correctness in general), the precise way you setup your environment is also critical, down to the minimum details. It's like your Dockerfile had a metaphorical unsafe { } block around it: in a system that doesn't mount /proc you just closed a whole host of bugs, and a buggy system that mounts procfs in other dirs may cause arbitrary havok. (note that mounting procfs is a privileged operation)

There are low level languages that, unlike Rust, completely prevents memory safety errors, like ATS. In ATS you can deal with pointers and pointer arithmetic (like in C or Rust) but to follow a pointer you need to provide a mathematical proof that they are valid. This is enough if we consider the program in isolation, but programs are never run in isolation. A proper mathematical proof of memory safety needs to consider ALL software running in the system, globally: then everything is mathematically verified, and the build step can just reject an unsound system setup.

That way we could theoretically be more precise about our memory safety guarantees: opening and writing to a file is safe, but only if procfs isn't mounted. If procfs is mounted anywhere, then this may go wrong: we need to prove we aren't doing something bad. This means that in a system where sysadmins can just log in and mount random stuff, writing to files must be unsafe!

Of course that's not very practical. It would be cumbersome to prove you're not doing /proc shenanigans every time you messed with files. And arguably, any program that open arbitrary filenames that came from untrusted input is buggy anyway. You should always do filename validations, specially to confine some input to some directory (when applicable), avoiding paths with ../ that escape it, for example. And, any setup that mounts procfs outside of /proc is irreparably broken. We don't have a tool to automatically check for such issues, but if those two things are followed, we won't have UB here.

How to do better than that? We need better system-level APIs, in which operations that are "obviously" safe can really be 100% memory safe all the time.
I disagree, if you don’t like it you can move to another platform. No one is forcing you to use it. For that matter “The Hill” can create their own. Always silly, the entitlement to someone else platform based on some misunderstanding of censorship and the 1st amendment.

Any time you set up any kind of system that organizes people into groups and where members of a group have disparate privilege or prestige versus non-members, then people will try to find all sorts of ways to get into the privileged group whether they “qualify” or not.

We’ve had class impostors forever. The OP mentioned a race imposter (we also have a sitting US senator arguably guilty of that) But it’s any group. Class, race, gender, first class, frequent traveler, club member, veteran, first responder, whatever.

IMO the solution is egalitarianism, but people hate that too, because they not only want the privilege but also the prestige- the feeling that they are better than you are.

Whatever the solution, legitimizing behavior that separates privileged and non-privileged makes things worse, not better.
