Soon you'll be able to connect Kable to any of your other data sources through Segment. Then, if your application is hooked up to services like Zapier, Amplitude, Mixpanel, etc, you'll be able to funnel data into Kable for billing purposes with no additional code.

Our goal here is to make it super easy to use Kable for billing no matter what your existing stack looks like

I quickly looked through the list (1970s and 1980s) and the definition of 1HW must be very a specific chart listing thing because there are musician who have had who had careers independent of the hit. Chris de Burgh filled 2000 seat venues multiple times in my home city as part of multi city tours over 40 years. Philip Bailey, of Earth, Wind & Fire, and Phil Collins of Genesis and his solo career are hardly 1HW.

There may be true 1HW with no other music career success but you cannot tell from this list.

If I search for "yandex" on DDG, the russian search engine is the first thing that comes up, so...
It does work for that. For a large number of searches, on relatively uncontroversial topics, search engines have effectively become oracles of truth.

This is how google ended up with their modern design that discourages website clicks, they did research into their users and realized most people searching “Abraham Lincoln’s birthday” want to see the top result “February 12, 1809” and not the top result “https://www.loc.gov/item/today-in-history/february-12”

Obviously I’m aware that not all data is uncontroversial and agreed upon, but it’s a fact that a large percentage of searches are quite literally treating search engines as oracles of truth
This made me think, are there any “Window Mangers” for Linux made for blind people?
Why not? Google loves tracking(At least when it's their own) and users hate popups.

The problem, as a vegetarian of something like 4 years, is that meat is really bloody tasty. Simply put, it's extremely nice to eat.

So rather than a future where we all eat flies or tofu or lentils or seitan or something if we can make a dent in the impact of animal agriculture while catering for the increase in meat eating in Asia then it's a good thing.
If I search cure for cancer the pro bleach crowed will be annoyed that bleach doesn't comes up before chemotherapy. I'm assuming you haven't actually looked at the disinformation that Russian propagandists are putting out. They aren't just saying "Russia is justified in ensuring the independence of areas with people who consider themselves traditionally Soviets" this is "Ukraine is bombing itself to make Russia look bad".

If you're arguing search engines should bias for what you want to see then it shouldn't be ranking russian propaganda highly for western audiences, if you are arguing search engines should bias for facts then by definition it shouldn't be ranking russian propaganda highly.

The "even if" bit from your link is helpful to consider.

Kettle logic:

1. I wasn't there.

2. I was there but had no motive.

3. I was there, had motive, but had no means.

Argument in the alternative:

1. I wasn't there.

2. Even if I was there, I had no motive.

3. Even if I was there and had motive, I had no means.

The first makes three conflicting statements. The second makes 3 consecutive arguments: I have an alibi, but if you don't believe my alibi, I still had no motive, and if you don't believe my alibi and that I lacked motive, I had no means.

It is not transparent what kind of curations take place to return the results. You cannot have a free market without transparency, and while DDG are announcing this now, they have no obligation to in the future. Previously the status quo was "we don't curate", now it's "we curate but announce it". What's the chance that they will no longer announce it in the future?
You have rediscovered why it is difficult to make a search engine. This is a problem that applies to all search results, not just politically charged content: human judgement is always required to write a search algorithm.

As urgent as the Ukraine invasion is, we should find attention for Taiwan.

Mainland China's claims on Taiwan are if anything more belligerent than Russia's claims on Ukraine have been. China has been building up the ability to cross the Taiwan Strait for decades. And its indifference for human rights and international law is clear.

The world must give thought, now, to how it deters China from invading Taiwan.

> 2. The defence is expected to lie

The defence is expressly prohibited from lying. Lawyers have a so called duty of candor [1] outlining this. Defendants testify under oath to make this clear to them. Defence attorneys must disclose to the court if their client lies to the court (and they can't convince their client to voluntarily disclose it instead) [2].

That doesn't mean people are expected to take defendants at their word during trial, juries are allowed to decide they think that someone was lying, but they aren't expected to lie.

I do a bit of scraping for hobby projects, and much of that comes down to basically this (but I do it in node instead of python). Sometimes you need to use jsdom or puppeteer, but the second step (after checking if there are official data dumps made available or some official API) is always checking the full data flow in devtools if there is some undocumented way to more quickly get the raw data I want.
The wikipedia article lists "My dog was tied up and I don't own a dog", which is on the face of it contradictory - But there can easily be legal nuance. For example, if I'm acting as a foster home or running a kennel, I can simultaneously advance evidence that "My dog" was tied up, while also advocating for lack of liability because "It's not my dog".

On the other hand, I've seen a ton of "I didn't do x, and even if I did do X it was acceptable because Y" where Y was the worse crime... that somehow still succeeded as a defense. Thankfully not in a court of law, but public opinion is weird.

Just stop trying to fix unit tests. All of this noise about test bloat and the pain of refactorings goes away if you make one mindset change: feel free to delete tests.

If you make a change and a unit test breaks, do your best to make sure it’s not an actual defect. If it isn’t and fixing the test looks like more work than you want, then delete the test. Maybe make a new one to cover a similar case if that makes sense.

“Less tests” is a really easy state to get to. Just highlight and delete. If I think having more tests is good and you think that it’s bad because you don’t want the tests there if they break, that’s not a problem! We can get back to the way you want things in less than a minute.

Someone writing a test is not a sworn oath to preserve it forever. It’s not even like a public method. No one is using it.

Exactly. people go to search engines looking for information about things. If the search engine returns lies it's completely failed.

Yes, I do this with other parts of my life. One of the most frustrating experiences I ever had grocery shopping was when I tried to buy "fancy" mayonnaise at whole foods. I was trying to cook something "nice" and wanted to get the good stuff, so that's where I went.

The package said in bold letters, "Mayonnaise!" or some such, and what I didn't realize until I got home was that it wasn't actually mayonnaise, but some sort of vegan/literally not mayonnaise alternative.

I wanted mayonnaise, I asked for mayonnaise, and I got something whole foods thought was healthier.

Now when I'm shopping at WF (rarely), I am extra vigilant about making sure that what I am seeing on the label is actually what I am getting in the container. In fact, I try to avoid "fancy" alternatives to normal foods, because I find that they often replace normal ingredients with things they think are better for me.

But I don't want that! I just want mayo, just give me mayo!

I've also had this where I buy sour cream, or cottage cheese, and get home to find out that it has, in tiny letters, "reduced fat sour cream!" - NO! I want the fat in that sour cream or cottage cheese, that's literally why I'm buying it!

edit: interestingly the mayo was actually called "just mayo", but that's newspeak. It literally is not mayo at all, it is a substitute for mayo that they think tastes similar. So "JUST MAYO" actually contains nothing that is mayo.
It's a big red flag for me too, I usually nope right out.

> find that ts normally brings a downside, actually. In one project I maintain, a solid 30% of the code is nothing but ts stuff.

That 30% number is almost certainly why. The experience with codebases with 100% type coverage / tight types have been glorious, and the ones with partial coverage / plain js files / lots of "as any" / lack of strict compiler flags https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/compiler-option... have been miserable and a waste of time. Can't stress the strict flags enough.

One of the "pros" of typescript is its gradual typing, but I think it's a trap and forces poor impressions on people.

One of those reasons is how `any` works. In gradual adoption, lots of stuff turns into `any`. `any` is a contagious/viral construct where anything it touches could become `any`. And then you spiral out of control and the whole codebase gets nothing from typescript but gets all the operational overhead.
