The front wheel needs to be bigger I think. Not for comfort but for safety.

This makes me want to design one. Roughly, bigger front wheel, hard (no pneumatic) tyres. Suspension on the rear wheel; a low unsprung weight would make this effective.

It reduces the use case to short distances, not commute rides. But that's ok if it's small enough folded to be taken on a train/bus/taxi.
It's not too far off. Any behavior which constitutes assault or harassment is not protected by the first amendment.

Shaming and shunning can easily be considered harassment in the right context, though actually proving it in a court of law gets much trickier.

In India, the country with lowest the Big Mac Index as in [1], it would take 6.48h for the human-bot to pay for a Big Mac. And this excludes energy and internet bills and money transfer fees. The numbers just don't work.

> Once hostilities started, the US and EU quicky united against Russia

I saw it more as the US setting up the EU to pick up a massive tab, since the US won't be much impacted, whereas the EU is much more dependent on Russia for trade and its energy needs than the US.
But I think it's still the best solution short of starting a direct conflict between nuclear powers

Eh, keep building this technology and give me the ability to push a script into an AI and it render my world for me with a little tweaking here or there. We're not there yet but it recalls a moment in one of Iain Banks' novels where one of the minds "lies." Since it would be trivial to generate a false flag that had all the data necessary to prove an event "happened" you had to trust that he mind wasn't lying about what it witnessed.

What is truly astonishing to me is we are close, not quite there, but close. I remember when The Spirits Within came out in 2001 and we were so blown away. I look at it now and it feels so amateurish in comparison.
(I don’t subscribe to libertarian affiliation)

I’m more of a consensus maker, ideas I suggest and the way I present them results in all-partisan support, including in the US. I think we overlap in the observation that disunity is unproductive. For me its been a great opening that entrenched special interests moved to far extremes of their parties and ideologies, opportunity of a lifetime since the center became unguarded. So I do have an uncommon view of what reality could be, but I’d rather not have that taken as libertarian. That assumption undermines my consensus making ability :)

Dune is not a good movie though, unfortunately. It's like 1/3 of a good movie. By any conception of storytelling, it doesn't constitute a story. As its own piece of media, without knowledge of the book, it doesn't stand as a coherent work. Compare it to something like Fellowship of the Ring which could be watched alone.

I doubt that this happen in reality because Kubernetes cover uses cases for pretty much everyone, now I would doubt the knowledge of a regular dev to try to mimic a solution that k8s already does.
It is a risk, but so is riding in a car, which can cause irreparable brain damage or death if one is injured in a car accident. Skiing, skydiving, and scuba diving carry similar risks. Even crossing the street is risky.

As adults we evaluate risks and make a decision as to whether the benefits outweigh the risks.

I don't think we can say a priori whether something is too risky for someone without knowing the person and their circumstances. Some people are really at the end of their rope and desperate to try anything, and have already tried many risky things (like antidepressants or other medication, each of which carries their own risks and possibly severe side effects) and will continue doing risky things without a fraction of the potential benefits of psychedelics.

There have been studies which show that psychedelics help people, even to the point of "curing" some of them after a single dose. The evidence so far shows enormous promise and far more effectiveness than traditional antidepressants for severe-treatment resistant depression.

How can we tell people who are suffering, some of whom are suicidal even, that they shouldn't try something which holds so much promise?

Yes, there are risks, and no guarantees. But steps can be taken to maximize the chances of a positive experience... such as doing it in a safe setting with a trusted, trained therapist or guide, and spending a lot of time afterwards integrating the experience with a therapist.

Some other recommendations for enhancing safety:

- lie in the recovery position[1], with the mouth facing downward so fluid can drain

- abstain from food and drink for at least 4 or 5 hours beforehand

- don't mix substances

- thoroughly vet anyone you entrust your safety to, and stay away from facilitators who mess with your body or mind during the experience

"Noitan nacirema eht fo saedi eht!" I have this line memorized because a friend and I would constantly reference it to each other after encounting the story in a shared american history class. Of course we didn't limit it to the story and mostly used it to swear at each other backwards.
> For a while I was leaning against it, but on reflection I realized that there is no obligation for me to listen to or engage with people that have abhorrent views. Rarely will doing so actually change their mind, or mine.

I don't think anyone disagrees with that, but your notion has pretty much nothing to with what other people call "cancel culture".

If there is a talk about topic "X", you not showing up is not "canceling" anything and nobody cares.

NVidia tooling is the best among all GPU vendors.

CUDA has been polyglot since version 3.0, you get proper IDE and GPGPU debugging tools, and a plethora of libraries for most uses cases one could think of using a GPGPU for.

OpenCL did not fail only because of NVidia not caring, Intel and AMD have hardly done anything with it that could compete on the same tooling level.

Nukes and Stability
I've worked in healthcare IT for my entire professional career - It's A LOT more complicated than most people think. For the last 5 years I've focused on the data side of healthcare and I think that deep learning is 100% possible - it's just not achievable by a single person and it's likely VERY expensive. There are so many facets to healthcare data that's it's just impossible for a single individual to achieve something meaningful by themselves without the help of teams of doctors, data analysts, data engineers and data scientists. Just dealing with data quality issues (such as the ones called out in this essay) require a team of people to determine if metrics you are trying to measure are legit or not.

On billing: I'm convinced that the primary reason why healthcare (at least in the US) is so complex - is because of the dichotomy of saving people at all costs, while doing so fiscally responsibly. It is fairly common for large healthcare organizations to have ACTING doctors in their c-suite, who's primary goal is not to make money - it's to save lives. The people who care about saving money, reducing cost and increasing efficiency have no control over the organization. I'm not saying this is a bad thing, but IMO it's the largest contributing factor as to why healthcare billing is so complex, and healthcare costs get as high as they do (at least in the US).

That hit painfully close to home. I once said I liked the speech George Bush gave about Islam after 9/11–based on being a brown guy after 9/11–and was confronted by a white woman who told me I should “educate” myself on how “Islamophobia had damaged Black and brown people in America.” (She was, of course, “too tired” to educate me herself.)
Strongly disagree. Taibbi & Greenwald along with Michael Tracey (who is currently in Poland on the Ukranian border) are some of the few independent journalists with the cojones to take on the establishment, who spend a huge amount of time smearing and discrediting them because they are impartial and provide invaluable commentary on all sides.
This is a massive release; congratulations to the Nu team for replacing the engine, line editor, and more.

Nu isn't quite 1.0 yet but this is the first release I can see using as my daily driver. There are a few rough edges and things aren't 100% stable yet, but I'm really impressed by the overall level of polish. Using Nu is like a glimpse into a future where string parsing is largely a thing of the past.

I've been helping out a bit with the documentation; if you have questions about getting started with Nu or if anything in the docs is unclear, let me know! https://www.nushell.sh/book/

Docker is also used to build things not just run them, multistage build with dependency vendoring, you have a 100% reproducible build.

It's very easy to do in Go.

You pin the version used to build your app ( the runtime version )
In your git repo you have dependcies

That's it.
Even if we accept there's a multiplier, we have no idea what that multiplier should be.

Hey - great and important idea.

Have you discussed / looked into sampling environmental radio noise at various frequencies and locations and then interpolating samples of them within the video and audio itself at recording-time?

These structures are akin to residual neural net motifs. "Fine-grained control at every level" is the name of the game.

It's extremely hard for me to imagine how anyone who's read or listened to a lot of Ken's commentary could walk away thinking that he was suddenly in favor of 18 USC 1001 just because of the existence of the Trump administration. He regularly criticizes the statute.

Also, quick sidenote on the heckler's veto:

https://nitter.42l.fr/Popehat/status/1504505701401448467#m

The heckler's veto isn't really the right term to use when talking about cancel culture or shouting down speakers. The heckler's veto is more about the government shutting down speech under the assumption that it might cause a riot or disruption in the future.

But for whatever it's worth, Ken also regularly criticizes shouting down speakers in public forums. I really just don't see this change in his opinion that you're talking about.

Thanks for posting this as the new yorker article kinda just scratche on it, which is a real shame considering these people have left death in their wake. Absolutely garbage journalism to somehow omit that there's murder arrest warrants out for them. There are so many psychologically manipulative, abusive people working in these spaces. Literally these people are just profiteering crackheads who got into making money on giving waaaaaay too powerful psychedelics to innocent people who don't know any better. They need to be popped out like bad pimples.

5-meo-dmt is extremely powerful stuff and unlike DMT it can cause you to end up in the hospital or dead. It's not something to be trifled with. It made a friend of mine's mom really lose her sense of what is even real anymore. I usually see these sorts of negative results in people who are long-term abusing hard drugs like stimulants or opiates over time, not like immediately after a few sessions of a psychedelic.
Nice one, base model with 1-speed costs 1340€ (+50€ shipping for EU) and rider can be up to 100kg.
This is really not that much considering how much every stock has gone up the last couple of years. Nvidia and AMD is up 887% and 737% respectively from 5 years ago.
5-MeO was extremely well known in 2013. It had already been featured multiple times on every psychedelic podcast, and there were multiple books about it. This whole article seems vaguely fake to me.
For shorter rides the saddle thing can be no biggie, but on long distances your butt will curse at that thing. Saddles are more important than people would acknowledge.
It was a difficult decision for me to spend 1.300 EUR in a Brompton, but I don't regret it a little bit. I have to admit I didn't use any alternative as a long term foldable bicycle, but after 3 years with the Brompton I don't have a single complain. Great quality, minimum weight, nice riding, fast un/folding. Everything you would expect from a portable bike.

Regarding the cost, I'm quite sure I could sell mine for more than 800 EUR while any other alternative would lose at least 50% of the value and probably require more maintenance.
My experience of 4 years with Linux on Dell XPS 13":

- WiFi stability issues with the Killer WiFi NIC were so severe at some point that I bought an Intel WiFi NIC only to learn that it's not replaceable in 9370 (but it is in 9360). A bit later I bought an external USB WiFi dongle which brought some connection stability while trading off connection speed. I sank some time into understanding and debugging firmware, without good results. A script that pings the router in a loop and reloads the connection when needed makes YouTube usable, but downloading any large files without retries was a major headache for a long time. Now it's less of a headache: maybe the firmware has finally caught up.

- Sleep on Linux can be indeed unstable; sometime I find my laptop out of battery after sleep, apparently because it wakes up on its own from time to time.

- Camera position below the display makes it very awkward for video calls. If I'm not mistaken, this was solved in newer models.

- Keyboard is quite pleasant to use, but its build quality could be better: plastic keys started to peel off after four years. In comparison, a twice as old MacBook Air keyboard still holds together very well despite heavy usage.

- Trackpad has been working well for me on Linux, I'm satisfied and don't have any complaints (I might be a very undemanding keyboard-oriented user though).

- The laptop screen is high quality, but its narrow aspect ratio feels a bit off, I'd appreciate more vertical space.

- My main motivation for Dell XPS was portability. My experience is mixed: it's possible to make Linux power saving work pretty well, but it requires work and can be flaky. Build quality also feels more fragile than MacBook Air. I still feel safer with my old MacBook Air while traveling.

- Absence of USB-A ports is not critical, but is another point of friction.

All in all, it's a solid machine with quality parts that I use daily, but it definitely has its share of hindrances.
Indeed. The primary reason I was so annoyed by that is that this was when (IIRC) IE8 was released, and day one we noticed that their sloppy JavaScript caused an exception which broke the entire UI. That happens but when I contacted enterprise support, I got a surprisingly snotty “we don't beta test Microsoft's software for them” message closing the ticket. They re-opened it when I pointed out that it was the release version and rolling out enterprise-wide to our Windows desktops for security reasons but I was not expecting a fix for a while based on the blow-off (this proved accurate), much less the call from a support manager a couple days later who'd seen in the case notes that I'd mentioned having patched it on our cluster (this was literally one line of code — trivial for any decent web developer).
Of course we don't have to defend Nazis but we can defend free speech. We should attack Nazis' inhumane poisonous speech and misinformation. And especially we shouldn't amplify it. Twitter should not amplify the spread of fascist ideology in the name of "fairness". They should ban it. People still have their freedom of speech but Twitter has the right to not propagate hate and lies.
Of course, as the author, I think we'll have to agree to disagree on this. :-) The first chapter establishes what is and isn't being claimed and the rest of the book fleshes those arguments out. The idea here is not some massive 'debunking' exercise, but rather pushing against automation rhetoric to explore actually existing work conditions and technological fallout. Certainly that's harder to see from a summary on a webpage though, without having the full book in front of you.
> It's harmless if you consider it in isolation. But I think it reflects a troubling power dynamic. At Northwestern they renamed "Hispanic Heritage Month" to "Latinx Heritage Month" (https://www.northwestern.edu/msa/programs/heritage-months/la...). Big deal, sure. But it shows that white progressives and their allies have tremendous power over issues relating to minorities--down to what to call a group of minorities--and minorities have very little power to assert their own preferences. I don't think that's harmless.

Our Latino law school classmates at places like Northwestern and Columbia are by and large progressive, and thus that change likely reflected the preferences of the Hispanic student body at Northwestern Law. I'm not sure why the preferences of moderate Hispanics who aren't there should matter in that context.

> I think this illustrates my point, though. In the primary, Black and Latino New Yorkers overwhelmingly supported Adams, while Asians supported Yang. But the Black, Latino, and Asian progressive activists mostly opposed both and sided with the candidates preferred by white progressives. Matt Yglesias wrote an excellent article addressing the disconnect between Asian actvists and asian voters: https://www.slowboring.com/p/yang-gang?s=r...*It doesn't matter because they don't get a vote.*

Bro, as you stated, they literally voted in the mayor in one of the most important--if not the most important--cities in the country lol. While the academic bubble is getting more progressive, New York went from having a progressive dodo for a mayor to having a moderate ex-Republican ex-cop as the mayor.

That grab-bag of issues suggests you have a confused notion of what constitutes "the right". For instance, how is police brutality a example of "right-wing cancel culture" when some of our most salient examples occurred in left-wing dominated cities? Not everything you disagree with is a political weapon used by your enemies.

I will concede (though you didn't make this point explicitly) that the religious right has historically had a fair bit of social power that might be described as cancel culture, but that power has arguably been gone since before cancel culture as I described it became a thing.
