There are very different kinds of trippyness though. The Lynch version seems quite determined about avoiding that cheesy "bunch of swirling colors" brand of trippyness. Sequences like that exist, but they aren't the trippy bits. The trippy qualities are more between the lines. The TV serial... not so much, that one was more "oh, he's having a vision, switch on the mood light vfx!". Haven't seen the Villeneuve yet, which one would it be?
Yes. "Cancel culture" is, apparently, the result of a combination of the observation of mass unfairness, and the public voicing of reactions to bad behavior. Both of these things are natural and do not represent a change in culture - what's changed is the social internet's inherent (i.e. it would happen regardless of any bias) effect of making both things hyper-visibile (which multiplies, since more visibility of the former produces more instances of the latter, which in turn are also more visible).

The reaction to cancel culture is mostly a dissatisfaction with this completely natural problem, but which attempts to paint it as a whole-cloth invention of their political enemies, and uses highly cherry-picked examples of bad outcomes to falsely represent the whole massive phenomenon.

In short, when hundreds of millions of people's voices are public by default, every opinion, thought, or emotion looks like a "mob".

When their initial theory of cough count produced a trend line that didn't really work well, with some major outliers, they introduced the implausible, ad-hoc mechanisms like the Thriller Tripler effect and the Batman effect to make it fit. This is the part that isn't just parodical silliness, but has actual applicability. This is something you might see in a bad research paper.

To add: the defence provided to a client is limited ordinarily to what is legally feasible, and what is ethically honourable (i.e. 'winning' does not mean going to the extent of pulling out dishonourable defences to ensure the accused client win).

The above are fair, and reasonable considerations for any lawyer to mete out to an accused client, in the interests of a fair trial, and for the ends of justice.

Yet what the "woke" community asserts is that any form of representation for accused people - accused, not convicted - is heinous in itself. It is surprising, since the legal fraternity should be first to understand that allegations are not truth -- that even law students have fallen short of this is worrisome, as they are the future lawyers and judges of the country.

How does it know my finger is over one? I just tested this on my iPhone 13 Mini, and the two photos, one without a finger over a lens and one with a finger over a lens, both look identical.

Given that the focal length of the lenses is different, it would be hard to "fuse" the images together, though I suppose it wouldn't be impossible. All this to accomplish what? A higher effective aperture? Or are you imagining some strange blending of foreground and background in focus, with middle-ground out of focus?
You can auto-check the "sign me up" option, but you have to present it and allow the user to avoid it. Perhaps I've insulated myself a bit too much, but I haven't seen a signup form in the past few years that doesn't follow this pattern, and allow me to avoid signing up.
My opinion on when Tesla will be ripe for disruption is when more than one car manufacturer agree on a battery swap technology.

> 3d world might just become a group of neutral players in the big power struggles of the world.

To be “neutral” is to remain irrelevant. It comes at tremendous cost, as “neutral” countries will suffer the severe economic consequences of avoiding alliances which provide access to free trade and other incentives.

And if these countries decide to build their own alliances with each other, they will no longer be neutral.

I think the recommendation to study Flask's code base is an echo from years ago, when it was considered a micro/toy framework. I used to recommend it too. As a more seasoned programmer, I don't anymore. Having used and studied the framework, I've seen some of the limitations that directly stem from some of its design choices. Today, I think it tried to be needlessly clever sometimes. Some of those choices, that seemed fun and clever back in the days, did not age well. As time went and people started pushing the framework, some artefacts required hackish workarounds. And those kept cumulating. To such an extent that the codebase now has a bunch of flags that control it's contingent behavior; ifs and buts that make the whole thing harder to reason about. You'll still learn lots of clever Python tricks, but I wouldn't put it in the "clean and clear" category.
Around the time this fake traffic jam project was first performed, a friend of mine was working on a condo development that was just about ready to list for sale. They planned an open house. The property itself was very nice and successfully delivered. However, there was a problem.

The property was very convenient to a local highway without being so close that it experienced noise/traffic/primary exposure to exhaust, etc. Google Maps would reliably take people on this highway and to the same exit. From that exit, locals would go one way that was a nice, quiet drive through some residential parts of town. But Maps would take you a different way, a detour down a side street with a public housing project that often presented an open air drug market, and was the site of not infrequent shooting deaths.

Presumably Maps sent you that way because the other direct way was the way most people took, and so this detour had less traffic and was marginally faster. This street was some distance from the condo project, but it would still give people a certain impression of the neighborhood that the developer felt was unfair.

I sent them the linked writeup hoping they would try it, but they never did as far as I know. Also, I'm not sure how well-received someone walking down this street with a bunch of phones in a wagon would be.

That's an interesting perspective. Personally, the stuff about not being able to get a lawyer to represent one is deeply concerning (to me, at least). I'd much prefer if this didn't happen, because innocent until proven guilty is an incredibly important feature of our society.

Can you clarify what exactly you feel like the resentful complaining is?

Anyone who's interested in this way of learning, I'd recommend you to check out retrieval-based learning (1):

"Retrieval is the key process for understanding learning and for promoting learning, yet retrieval is not often granted the central
role it deserves. Learning is typically identified with the encoding or construction of knowledge, and retrieval is considered
merely the assessment of learning that occurred in a prior experience. The retrieval-based learning perspective outlined
here is grounded in the fact that all expressions of knowledge involve retrieval and depend on the retrieval cues available in
a given context. Further, every time a person retrieves knowledge, that knowledge is changed, because retrieving knowledge
improves one’s ability to retrieve it again in the future. Practicing retrieval does not merely produce rote, transient learning;
it produces meaningful, long-term learning. Yet retrieval practice is a tool many students lack metacognitive awareness of
and do not use as often as they should. Active retrieval is an effective but undervalued strategy for promoting meaningful
learning."

> "The problem with Bitcoin is it shoves basic economics and monetary history in the toilet and replaces these with a radical monetary ideology, a blockchain-based embodiment of The Sovereign Individual."

Quite the opposite. Bitcoin recognizes the history of the debasement of monies very well, unlike the Keynesian view. I find it ironic when people use the term 'basic economics', but have clearly never read "Basic Economics" (https://sowell.org/books/basic-economics).

> "As the financial system has slowly shifted to cater to the post-WW2 status quo, money supply has become the least important factor. It's why barely any economist or monetary official brings it up, and why they don't take Bitcoin seriously."

And it's why you're enjoying 7.8% inflation and why prices will double in just 9 years, if inflation stays at this rate and doesn't increase any further. (Hint: It will)

They don't bring it up because they're paid to push inflationism, which benefits the early receivers of new money at the expense of savers, fixed-wage earners and property owners.

> "The idea of digital scarcity is ludicrous, because you can create an unlimited quantity of digital items and now, thanks to crypto, an unlimited amount of links to those items. According to the basic laws of economics, an infinite supply will always lead to insufficient demand, which in crypto is a shortfall of increasingly greater fools willing to risk investing their money in “securities fraud as a business”. When demand dries up in this scenario, prices always go to zero, usually in spectacular fashion."

Very true about 'crypto'. Anybody can create new tokens, there are effectively infinite. However, nobody can just create new Bitcoin. Bitcoin is scarce, but shitcoins are abundant.

Overall the author is mostly correct about 'crypto'. The misunderstanding is thinking that Bitcoin is part of 'crypto'. It is not.

Careful what you wish for. Just because something is flawed, doesn't mean that burning it down will replace it with something better. It's the same reason why most revolutions to overthrow dictators usually become as bad or worse than what they replaced.
Honestly the ancient Latin's dict "est modus in rebus" (there is a measure in anything) IMVHO is still generally valid, witch means that yeas we also need memorization but there is no reason to stretch it like in the old time before printed press. I fail to found a purpose to remember exact date of birth and death of historical figures, remember poetry etc

Similarly I see no point in doing the opposite, like certain "GTD fanatic" who pretend not to remember what they need to do in next few hours because their GTD system is more efficient than their memory and so they need to keep memory free to focus on current thing.

Est modus in rebus.

We need to eat, eating too little is harmful, but also eating too much is harmful. We need oxygen to breathe but too much exigence fry our lungs and brain. Sport is important, a sedentary life is not healthy, but too much physical activity means being broken in the old age with a consumed body.

The most important thing to operate with their own brain IMVHO is having in memory "the big picture" so to being able to recall anything via computer as needed. Without the big outline our searches are limited, probably biased, we can't correlate things we encounter etc, but there is no need to do more and no reasons to do less.
> I don't know what the right solution is, probably some mixture of the two. Clearly you don't want manufacturers to be incentivized to ignore the risk associated with their systems, but you also don't want these systems not to be offered when they'd be a net gain in safety.

The right solution has always been public transportation. It's just, you won't hear that from car companies. The right solution to self driving cars is not to have any cars.

> Autosteer + active safety features is exactly what autopilot is.

If you ask a normal person on the street what "autopilot" means in a car, you'll get a range of answers. But the consistent opinion is that autopilot means that you don't need to concentrate. Most will say that its automatic driving, and will drive for you.

But autosteer requires concentration. Its just sparkling lane assist.

> it's different to FSD - yes.

Which is the point. Its marketing fluff. Autopilot isn't really that, its adaptive cruise control with lane assist. Thats the thing that rankles. All of this stupidity, injury, and noise comes from a marketing decision. One designed to cover up that the CEO over promised and wildly under delivered _yet again_.

Its about control, if the car can drive itself and the manufacture is always held responsible then there is no incentive to selling cars. The incentive to charge for transport is still there Mercedes would become the next Uber and the World Economic Forum would get the dystopian future it has always dreamed of.

Kind of interesting then that Mercedes was an early Tesla investor. Seems at least someone in Mercedes saw the future.
The same logic means that they should find it easier to create a solution since they only have to supply a small number of people so I guess it balances out.

I wonder if there should be a distinction between memorization and intuition. The author alludes to the fact that if you can build an intuition to the fact that daylight savings time was right in the middle of world War 1, then you can remember more easily that it was in 1916.

I have found that I cannot remember certain mathematical properties at all. For instance I always forget whether to use sin or cos to get the x component or y component. But, I had a few teachers force us to memorize the fundamentals: SOH, CAH, TOA. Using the fundamentals allows me to prove to myself very quickly what I should use. It's the same thing with the quadratic formula. I can never remember it, but I had a calculus teacher show us how the equation is derived. I can remember what a parabola is, and I also remember the fundamentals of calculus. Using these two things I can derive the quadratic formula pretty easily.

So I wonder if there's a 2nd metric that we're missing. Where we need to memorize fundamentals, and critically think about how to use those fundamentals. I don't know, this could just be more anecdata though :)

While I recognise that they are a thing that exists (and this is not something you can change), you appear to claim:

A. To understand how the "modern economy" works

B. It cannot work without one system

Both claims are very big claims, and while they could be true they are nowhere near so obvious that you can say that it belies an "immense ignorance" to think that this system is bad.
to anyone that is interested in Tolkiens drawings and especially calagraphie I can really recommend his book "Letters from Father Christmas"

I don't find these examples particularly compelling. Likes to cite examples of overreach but never describe the counter arguments.

i.e. peremptory strikes. Jury selection was clearly, with many many examples, used in the past to create a group not that was not the defendant's 'peers'. Even with the '86 court ruling that nominally ended peremptory strikes on the basis of race, most lawyers recognize (as do Gerrymanderers) you can find related reasons to strike them within the realm of plausible deniability (i.e bias against police).

The author presents no reasoning from those in favor, only disgruntled and largely anonymous counterpoints.

Furthermore, the praise of S African policy is a cherry picked example and clearly far outside the mainstream. One American official praising an approach is hardly a bellwether.

Re: Kyle Rittenhouse, citing one example as a potentially adverse ruling ("liberals would hate to convict this black man!") is hardly a good counterargument towards vigilantism.
Just this week, a Florida 70 year old was acquitted after shooting dead a man who threw popcorn in his face. Even if we had to admit there is no perfect middle ground (may or may not be true), I think over-convinction of vigilantes is clearly preferable to allowing greater death and destruction through the furtherance of stupid legal theories like Stand Your Ground.
