I'm just waiting for the day all of the humans required to keep a one of the older, less safe designs running all become unavailable and the people required for disaster management when it melts down are also unavailable and the world experiences a completely unmitigated meltdown. I really don't think this is out of the realm of possibility within the next hundred years. The assumption here is a societal collapse of sorts where say 90% of the population go away. IIRC there were something like 600,000 people who responded to the cleanup of Chernobyl, and something like 4% of the radioactive material of a single reactor was all that leaked into the environment. I sort of see nuclear power plants (at least certain designs) as a ticking time bomb that'll potentially leave large parts of the planet uninhabitable (or maybe just really high rates of thyroid cancer in the remaining population) for the 10% that remain in a post collapse world.

Nuclear does have a great record on paper. It's the non-linear behavior that scares people. And when troops roll up and start shelling nuclear power plants and people go "oh... oh I didn't consider how it might function under these conditions" that that non-linearity rears its head again and people get pretty cold on nuclear when faced with situations like that.

So maybe illegal if the license isn’t in the repo?
Chernobyl could have been so much worse, so much worse. You should look that up as well. We definitely do not want to do more Chernobyl style nuke plants. There are much much safer designs available.
> Rent is pissing away money, and from the rates I've seen, the monthly rent on a house is often very close to the monthly mortgage payment, so the "investing the difference ins S&P500" ends up being moot.

this varies a lot locale to locale. in some places the rent is very close to the monthly mortgage payment. in some places, the mortgage is much higher.

https://www.investopedia.com/terms/p/price-to-rent-ratio.asp

if you're damn sure you want to live somewhere long enough to pay off a 15 year mortgage, then yeah, odds are it's better than renting. most people can't be 100% sure of that, so to make it a fair calculation you also have to include the costs of buying and selling. in theory, you should also have to price in the risk of having so much money concentrated in a single asset, but it seems to be a matter of policy that housing prices are never allowed to go down.

Isn't this a case of Neo4j trying to prevent a SaaS from making money selling a managed Neo4j offering?

It seems the OSI is siding against Neo4j and with the SaaS by saying Neo4j had no rights to remove the right to sell the software from the SaaS company who decided to remove the added clause preventing them from selling Neo4j.
Language took a huge step forward the first time a girl wanted to tell another girl about a boy she met, when the second girl had never met the boy. Many, many concepts had to come into play:

a boy you've never met can exist

other people can know a person that you don't know

events happened at different times in the past

other people you don't know can evoke strong emotions in people you do know

all of this can be communicated using sounds
The GPL is a copyright work in and of itself and has its own license, which prohibits changing it.

Arguably adding extra clauses to the GPL is ‘changing it’, which violates the license to the license, and it implies that the plaintiff themselves have committed copyright violations by modifying and distributing the license. The FSF themselves would have cause to sue Neo4j.
@greentfrapp, why you need JS for that?

The problem isn't guests using your house's network. The problem is that if there's a way for you to network-level block DoH at your own house, then nothing is stopping Comcast or China from implementing the same network-level block.
I have had many examples in my life where helping friends have made them dependent on it and later take it for granted.

I didn't really set out to help them, either. Just kinda kept saying yes until they expected me to keep saying yes and became 'surprised' if I hesitated when they asked for too much. It was easy for me most of the time, having the freedom of being single and tons of free time.

And these are good people. People I like and am still friends with. Maybe not the most introspective people, but then again probably human nature at work.

My selfish motivation for helping was to be liked or respected more. And it made feel good. I got what I wanted but there is also a cost.
you're missing the part where the renter is continually investing the difference between their current rent and the mortgage they would be paying. but yeah, if you're prescient enough to know ahead of time that you're going to live in the same building for 35 years, you'd be foolish to rent.
Agate is silica (quartz) and is harder than steel, or any common metal or alloy that pre-modern people would have had. A few common minerals are harder, such as feldspar and hornblende, and modern ceramic is (but not all fired clay). I think tools made or tipped with these must have been used, and/or perhaps finely ground minerals were used as an abrasive polish.

The CRA is fairly particular[0] about income from the sale of a property. They want to know, for example, how long it has been your primary residence and if it was rented before then, what was the appraised value. You will end up paying capital gains on the delta. So, if you've been renting out a property, move in to it for 6 months and then sell you'll be paying capital gains on everything but the last 6 months. The only time that works out is with a sudden spike in values.

[0] source: an accountant I know that wants to stay in good standing with the CRA :-)
I agree. I remember the flop house my grandpa ran in Spokane fondly. We cousins called it the empty arms.

On the other hand, flop houses aren’t economical to run anymore, and the drug problems (especially with decriminalization) have gotten much worse. It’s not clear they can work like they did in the past.

Rural areas can have horrible crime, like rural New Mexico or the Mississippi delta. It is all very region specific. Alaska is one big example of a state where rural crime is greater than urban crime on a per capita basis.
I mainly work in Python and Vue, so that would be huge for me.

I use VSCode, but it weirdly forgets how to tab-shift things over, and/or forgets how backspace works. (I just close/reopen and it's fine again.)
God I hate it but events of recent years suggest that's not an implausible situation, sadly.
That's sheer genius!
For devices that aren't fully under your control despite you owning them, couldn't they still do whatever they want by hardcoding the IPs of whatever services they want to talk to, instead of using DNS or anything like it at all? Blocking DoH doesn't fix that problem.
People are deliberately misusing the site. The whole point of the character limit, is to force you to make a concise thought.

A comment I've made elsewhere is that Android (stock, not rooted) currently seems to lack what iPhones can do: a "dump" which can be restored. (happy to be told it can be done. Would love to know how, preferrably not demanding rooted phone)

Backup to cloud is not the same. Some apps don't honour cloud backup of e.g. game play so you lose levels. Thats trivial, but noticable.

2FA using the trust store I believe do not come back the same after a wipe. If same h/w is needed (at least one bank I am using puts something into the TPM) then you can disconnect from your 2FA requirement using 'restore' paths at present on Android (happy to be corrected)

A burner phone is probably safest, but sometimes the borderline of what to put or not put on the burner phone is a bit confusing. If you e.g. don't put the banking 2FA then its a time-zone call home, to ask an SO to press the buttons for you.

I was a frequent traveller, I've never been asked to present an electronic device, and I haven't yet worked out my own posture here regarding data minimisation across the borders.

Aspects of this story echo with how CBP in the US operate. here in Australia Its quasi-illegal or questionable to ask for unlock, and they can keep the device for unreasonably long periods or mark you non-compliant, or use discretionary powers so you become the random victimised person easily. There is a huge asymmetry at the border, even your own home nation state can be rather arbitrary if you are one side, seeking to go to the other side. This isn't about 'only bad people have reason to fear' either. Most people are going to give in and unlock, because it's just an intimidatingly easier path.

Usually, the reason people state it's needed is KP or AML. Both are real problems, but account for a tiny percentage of devices seized as I understand it. I would be very surprised if all 800+ cases here had good reason to be suspected in either case, for KP/AML. Some probably did.
Decades ago when I was six I was going to and from school by myself, this was usually by bus but not always.

By the age of 10 I was taking an intercity train about 70 miles to visit my grandmother by myself. A part of getting to my grandmother's place was to change trains for a local suburban one at an 8-platform interchange station and when I alighted from that suburban train I had to walk several miles to my grandmother's place, this meant crossing a main interstate highway.

I think we grossly underestimat%e what kids can actually do. It horrifies me to see the way kids are overprotected these days - driven to and from school etc.

Tragically, we've already bred and are still breeding generations of kids who are so timid that they're even frightened of their own shadows.

BTW, I wasn't unique, it was the norm for most kids back then. Moreover, my mother was overprotective of us kids by the then standard of other mothers. This annoyed me when in primary school as I'd get teased about it by other kids.

There’s nothing to stop them coming up with their own license (like MongoDB did). They don’t have to plagiarise the GPL.
What point are you suggesting with your Nepal example? It's a third world country. Fast presumably employed people in San Francisco. That weekly wage from Nepal might buy you a bag of apples from Costco here. An entire year's worth of wages in Nepal might pay for one month's rent of basic housing.

Sure, nobody needs $250k per year to survive. CEOs also don't need to have an obscene compensation ratio compared to their workers. Health care companies don't need to rake in billions in profits every quarter. Sitting congress people don't need to conduct stock trades worth hundreds of millions every year. But here we are.

Companies paying everyday employees competitive wages in a free market is way down on my list of things to lose sleep over. We have a few other systemic issues I'd like to see solved first.
I wonder how large the democratic deficit would be if the response from any given representative across the country read something a little more like this:

"We [insert office] are excited by your interest and have taken your stance into our records.
While [office] must remain entirely impartial, we can inform you that, unfortunately, as of now our records indicate that your stance is only shared by a minority (45%) of the vote suggestions and support letters we have received.
If you feel strongly and wish to alter [office's] actions towards this, please continue your support by gaining interest in your community."

Perhaps people participate more under this different system.
Your spouting absolute nonsense. You can't even keep your conspiracy theories straight (if that's even possible).
> the writing style in papers is just really strange and unnecessarily verbose and over-complicates even simple concepts

Specialized terminology and complete descriptions can sometimes help to make writing more precise and correct. They can also make writing less clear - intentionally or unintentionally.

Why would the writer of a paper want it to be less clear? Perhaps to artificially inflate the importance of the work (and/or the length of the paper) or to make it seem non-obvious and "novel." Or perhaps to "fit in" with a certain style of writing or language ("academese" or "paperish") commonly used in the discipline.

My advice is: be as clear (and as simple) as possible without sacrificing precision or correctness. Clear papers with good and significant work are incredibly valuable and are likely to be more influential than unclear papers, even if the underlying work is good.

Since so many papers are unclear and poorly written, you may also find that clarity and good writing can help to differentiate your work.
It would have to be a full stop.
People make crazy claims like this all the time lol. They didn't surrender before the nukes or the US government would have been ravaged in the history books. It would have taken a huge invasion force of the USA in order to take Japan and at least 10s of thousands dead on both sides, if not hundreds of thousands. The US would have bombed the entire country into rubble instead of two cities.
Sure, let's compare some theories which are currently being investigated by scientists, which could explain the decline in fertility in the last decades in millions if not billions of people, with the folk tales when some men couldn't get an erection a couple hundred years ago.

If you're talking about projects where people are following the letter and spirit of the license, and publishing their code, but it's a pain to use... that's not really something you can control with a copyright license. The correct answer in that case is to not use that code and treat projects that rely on it as technical debt.

If you mean that the SaaS provider has a private fork of someone else's code, and won't publish that fork... well, AGPL already exists for that. But here's the thing: in order for any license to close this loophole, you need to create a licensing term that obligates the user to publish private forks. These terms will inevitably either restrict the user's freedom to run the program, or the user's freedom to modify the program. I don't see why we should be calling restrictions on either freedom[0] to be Free Software or Open Source.

My personal feeling is that companies that are adopting "SaaS-loophole" copylefts are looking for the street cred of being source-available, while still being able to wield copyright in the way one would with proprietary software. Hence the Commons Clause that bans commercial endeavors on top of the already difficult-to-comply-with Affero clause. If you want to be paid, just... demand payment.[1] That's what proprietary licensing is for, and you are never going to close the "SaaS loophole" in FOSS while still remaining in the spirit and letter of FOSS.

The thing about SaaS is that it wasn't invented this decade. Even back in the 80s and 90s when FOSS was novel, you had massive IBM mainframes that could be partitioned, virtualized, and rented out exactly in the same way Amazon does today.

[0] GPL and weaker copylefts are tolerable because said licensing provisions only trip on distribution. Ordinary users do not need to worry about GPL compliance until they want to give someone else their code. This is a feature, not a bug.

[1] Are FOSS support contracts still a thing?
Very useful. Hypersonics shorten the window for defensive engagement but don't completely eliminate it. For example in surface naval warfare anti missile defense is layers of counter systems / munitions. The innermost layers of this "onion" of protection are fast reaction systems that function essentially at line of sight (SeaRAM and similar missiles, CIWS). That an incoming hypersonic is trying to shorten the detection window is all the more reason that detecting one quickly after it comes above the horizon is valuable.
If we did SIL in C++ there's a good chance it'd have something like the UE4 header preprocessor to deal with all the hooks/metaprogramming we were able to D directly in D.

It's legally and ethically fine as long as the copyright notice remains, right? I'd simply make a PR comment noting that the copyright notice should be included. They might not know it's needed, and either way lets them save their face. No need for drama unless they make it.
My fear here is:

US government tells Elon to do this.

Elon says no, I won’t build actual weapons.

Now SpaceX is as effective as the US government (ie not at all) and can no longer produce anything useful.

China wins. The end.

VCs sometimes follow "hot" companies. Companies become hot when several VCs think they are hot for whatever reason. When the company is hot and gets offers, other VCs will rush to give them more offers and at that point you might not even need a deck or any metrics anymore. The startup can then bid those offers against each and can end up raising even more they initially were trying to.

Fast did great job hyping the company on Twitter, likely the founder also was a good storyteller. The old adage is that you raise with a story, team or traction. Sometimes the story actually pans out, like with YC Airbnb is often an example of company that struggled for a long time in the beginning and no-one could really predict how big they could become.
We don’t really work with the strong force in chemistry, mostly in nuclear and high energy physics. Chemistry is mostly about electron transfer and bonding.
In the context where your measurements allow you to measure discrepancies a seventh of that error, that’s a huge error (for the purpose of THIS experiment). There might be some experiments where the difference doesn’t matter at all, or other experiments where the dependence is linear, so the answer also shifts by 0.1%. But the dependence could just as easily be some complicated nonlinear function which leads to a large discrepancy compared to the measurement precision.

All of those provinces have vast swathes of undeveloped land. The Canadian Shield is not hard to build on, plenty of cities are built directly on bedrock.

You can go to BC and see massive valleys of farmland (maybe used for grazing) that could easily be built on.

90% of Canadians live within 100 miles of the US border because: 1) the weather is better and 2) transportation options 150 years ago drove settlement (transCanadian railway and access to waterways) and 3) development begets more development, so established communities tend to grow rather than new one sprouting up.
A question I had was whether a completely plant based diet avoid ingestion of microplastics, as most articles I see are focused on the aquatic ecosystem (probably because the density of pollution in our seas is arguably more than terrestrial). A quick google search turns up a lot of articles on the deleterious effect on plants as well, so I guess there is no escape. But perhaps (hopefully) a plant based (e.g. PBHF) diet can mitigate some of the risks imminent on a meat (mainly seafood?) based diet.

Blind bids prevent bidding wars, but from an idealistic standpoint they don't find the true price of a home. Particularly when you have buying agents routinely advising their clients to bid 50k over what turns out to be the next highest bid.

Though psychology comes into play in a bidding war, at least it's happening because the asset for sale is highly desired. It's efficient.
