Rant

I switched to a Mac Mini M1 in December and it has been a complete pain in the ass. First of all, to even be able to use it I had to switch out my monitor, mouse, keyboard and speakers because Apple didn't like them. And then I had to buy an extra dock to get more ports. On top of that I've also had to install a bunch of third party software to get basic functionality like window snapping (Moom), and a functioning scroll wheel and the ability to turn off mouse acceleration (SteerMouse).
And don't get me started on the absolute bonkers ways you toggle between applications, or the fact that you need to click TWICE on a window when switching between windows, if you want to type something in it. My desk is absolutely cluttered with application windows, because minimizing them apparently makes Mac treat them as if you never want to see them again, which messes with my voice control software. Oh, and why is there no delete button? And why do I need to be so precise when clicking on desktop icons, instead of just having a bounding box around them? Who thought that was a good idea? And while we're on desktop icons, why on earth aren't they sorted and fixed to a grid by default? Does anyone like unorganized items in folders??
Another thing that annoys me is pop-up windows with no freaking option to close them other than clicking "done" or whatever. What if I don't want to apply any of the changes I've made? Why can't I just cancel?? I could go on and on about UI inconsistencies and various bugs I've encountered. Needless to say I'm switching back to Windows (which isn't without its own problems) next time I'm buying a computer.

This mac has made my RSI go haywire. I've tried to do everything the "Apple way", but it's just always so clunky and slow compared to Windows.

You always pay out of your pocket.

The concept that you make (bad bad) companies pay out of their (outrageous) profit is a delusion.

Companies just take part of your salary and with that they pay medical cost.

I actually prefer paying it myself and having this thing called "free market" or competence work for me.

But in places like the US the system is extremely corrupt and designed to make it impossible for the free market to exist. This is inherited by the political system making mandatory for business to handle that instead of individuals.

In other countries you have things like mutuality organizations of people to provide healthcare, much much better and cheaper that what I see in the US.
Neither world war was caused by bad faith communication nor could have been resolved by any form of communication. This is a hopelessly naive take.

Yes, in times of war the truth and with it good faith communication is one of the first things to go. This is a symptom, not a cause of war.

The view that every conflict can be solved by good faith communication in a for both sides acceptable manner is insane.

If one side wants to murder all people with a certain intrinsic attribute be it race, sexual orientation or whatever and the other side does not want to be murdered, there is no compromise to be made. The people of the first group will never engage in good faith with the later group that they view as subhuman. Any attempt to establish good faith communication will only HURT the later group.

You are severely underestimating the cost of the car ride. Fuel is not the only cost, but even this feels low. Five hours by train has to be at least 500km which will be depending on the car on average I guess 35 liters of gas, which at today's prices is more like 60 pounds.

But a car costs a couple pounds every day for registration, insurance, regular maintenance, new parts (tires etc). If you go to London and spend 10 days there, this is easily 50-100 pounds even if it's just parked and doing nothing. Now also add possible parking costs and emergency costs for maintenance if the car breaks down -- a friend of mine went with his car to the seaside with kids a couple years ago, and the car broke down midway. It cost him 2.5k for his local shop to pick it up and repair. The shop on the spot even gave him a 4k quote.

And of course you have the upfront investment for the actual car which is a few thousand for a used car or at least 15 thousand for a new car these days.
Firing does not mean sending people to jail because they did a bad job.

Normally an employer can only fire you. But when your employer is also a dictator, you can indeed end up in jail for bad performance.

So no, firing is not really a proper term.

> Why don't people recognize this? Simple - infantilization of native peoples as a justification for the ravages of European colonialism.

To be fair most people have only a Hollywood idea of history. In fact, painting this as an European mindset ignores the fact that most cultures in history have engaged in brutal expansionist warfare when given the opportunity.

Ultimately I think this point sort of trips on its own shoelaces. The same infantilization of native peoples prevents you from seeing that if the west wasn't doing this, someone else would have come and done the same at the first opportunity.

It's easy to cry western colonization and then brush over the Umayyad caliphate colonizing the Iberian peninsula and a hefty chunk of Northern Africa, and a number of other similar historical events across the world.

Singling out European colonialism as worse than the millennia of ceaseless warfare it displaced has a quiet assumption that western europe isn't just another civilization, that it is somehow to be held to a superior moral standard to the βάρβαροι; the reason it's especially bad is because Europe is the hero in the story. That is a colonialist mindset indeed.
I feel this in my bones. Working on my Spanish tax return, and agencia tributaria's site has some of the most diabolical form validation I've ever encountered.

> We do pay people to clean up our messes.

That X has happened in the past is not a moral argument for X

That's a false dichotomy since the two are not mutually exclusive.

Yes, we do care about some moral argument, and indeed all moral
arguments. They often get down to the root causes quicker than 5Y
analysis. For a gentle introduction to the intersection of ethics and
systems theory see [1].

A fun parallel. Consider the importance being placed on gender to be in part a malleable cultural factor in part perpetuated by language. Plenty on this in the sphere of ‘gender studies’.
One other thing that is easily forgotten, trains are much safer and feel safer.

In road traffic there are maybe 50 deaths per year per million people (wild guess, but not that far off). With trains in Europe, it's not even 1 per year per million. I don't have to think about all the "almost-accidents" that are part of road traffic. This does come with a price, but buying a newer and safer car also comes with a price.
Not very impressive compared to DALL-E, understandably.
Sleeper trains change the calculus a little, because you can sleep as you travel. While they're a foreign concept to many people, they are reasonably popular in Europe — not just among railfans — and in many parts of Asia are a very typical mode of transport. Going to sleep in one city centre and waking up in another is often far more convenient than the air travel alternative, especially for the many cities where there is no fast+convenient public transport to the airport.

Furthermore, to make a fair comparison you need to:

- Include all the costs of the air ticket in the price comparison, in particular transport to and from the airports. Public transport is sometimes not available, or may not be convenient (e.g. with luggage or small children), and due to the large distance to many airports taxis can be very expensive

- Include all of the time involved in the flight — depending on the cities involved, your two and half hour flight could easily be 5+ hours city-centre-to-city-centre once local transport, check-in deadline, time padding for uncertainties etc is considered.

- Compare to a rail ticket for a specific train at a specific time, which is usually cheaper. The more expensive rail tickets often give you the option of multiple trains on a given day, which is a level of flexibility no air ticket gives you.

If we want to really make it a fair comparison you should also probably compare the price to the business class flight ticket, considering that even the lowest class of train ticket gives you a comparable level of comfort to a typical intra-Europe business class airplane seat.

If you need to get there as quickly as possible, the airplane is going to win on most (but not all) routes. But for many people, having fewer steps in the journey and being able to comfortably work during the journey can actually make the longer train option more convenient.
Yeah. But it requires an onboard computer with USB and WIFI which is not shown, and actually is kind of interesting. How does the computer link back to the operator? Is there bandwidth enough to send hires photos from the camera back?
Limiting food price increases prevents farmers from making money. It would be more appropriate to introduce a subsidy for food production and pay for it by raising taxes on food and then making the fraction of the price that is below the price limit tax exempt. This way there is an incentive to stay under the price limit to minimize taxes but it is not mandatory.

You can then pay the subsidy out as a food dividend so that everyone has equal access to the proceeds of "food price gouging".

Yes, it works great for me. I don't really use the negative feedback. Most recommendation I guess are new uploads from creators I like or videos I haven't watched from creators I like. It shows me videos from unknown creators to me that match my interests as they go viral. It shows some random old videos that just randomly go viral again. It's a good experience.

And you can find round trip tickets Madrid-Paris on RyanAir for 50 eur, and for 100 eur on regular airlines. In my comment I took 140 eur as typical price of airfare. Typical cost of rail is something closer to 250 eur.

This also ignores the speed: if the prices were the other way around, with airfare twice as expensive as rail, I expect most people would still take the plane.
You seem to expect that if plan A fails, that's that, there is no plan B, C, etc.

Interesting. I hadn't really thought about this. Although I wonder if there is a more direct way of achieving this.
It is backwards compatible, so this tells me that they added an additional check to prevent certificates for such domains to be issued.

There are plenty of vendors who will work with you, even if you're new to the business. Some might need persuading, and some might say no. That's fine. Someone else will say yes.

Once you've found folks who will work with you, earn a reputation for treating their products and livelihoods with care, and treating them like people and not like APIs. Then the deals will follow, and maybe some of the people who said no at first will reconsider

It's a hard business (to put it very mildly), and none of this guarantees success, but not treating people like people almost guarantees failure.

As far as I can tell (I now have the API access, so I might test later), you only need to provide additional authentication credentials to Certbot. The private key stays on your server. The CA server _might_ reject requests that do not come from GCP, or attempt to obtain one for a domain name not setup with GCP.

>I'd like to have a separate worksheet type for "datasheets". Looks and behaves just like an ordinary worksheet

I think you're on to a good idea, but it has to be a table in the middle of a spreadsheet if you want to get acceptance. What would probably cinch it for you is if you could embed an entire table in a bounded box, with scrolling. It would break the row/column addressing for the contents, but that's always clumsy with tables in sheets anyway.

Example: a data table lives in C10-M10 / C20/M20

Down in C21-M21 you could have sums, counts, etc. that work across all the data.

With this arraignment, you could then sum columns, count, etc. It would be really slick if you snuck in SQL. The tradeoff in immediate addressing of cells within a table could be acceptable.

A while ago, I saw something that allowed spreadsheets in spreadsheet cells, it was mostly intended for interactive use, and dispensed with cell addresses completely in a manner that seemed reasonable at the time.
I always just size the windows as needed. Snapping for me is just this annoying non-feature that attempts to be more clever than me and interferes with my flow.

Yes! Always annoys me that Google Maps navigation reads the codes for roads as if they were numbers. In the UK I only ever here, for example, A2179 spoken as "ay twenty-one seventy-nine. GMaps reads it as "ay two thousand one hundred and seventy nine". That extra time taken and slight extra mental processing when you're driving, it exacerbates it beyond annoyance.

(There are exceptions, of course, A6000 would be read as "ay six thousand").

Presumably this is USA-ism noone bothered to fix.

One of the most important parts of the article is a footnote:

NOTE: All signs of good faith communication can be "faked" in bad faith.

Basically, in modern online mob communication, the winning side defines what "good faith" and "bad faith" are. The winning side defines a vague code of conduct, cloaks themselves in "goodness" and then openly uses the "bad faith" slander against anyone who disagrees on any issue (even purely technical ones).

I love the experience of travelling in Europe by train, but it certainly is cumbersome and expensive.

I took a car train from Hamburg to Vienna last year. Drive the car into the train, and get a sleeping coach for the 14 hour journey - as comfortable a journey I could ask for. Except it cost about €1000 if I remember correctly for my family. I still preferred it because it negated the need to rent a car in Austria, and also saved in baggage costs on a flight. However, if trains could be scaled up, the costs would come down and become competitive even for people who aren’t needing those perks like baggage and car transport.

The train (and tracks) are not as compatible across Europe as I thought. You can travel from Denmark to Austria by train, but be ready to change from Danish train to German, to Austrian train because of different track or signaling systems. Now, the anxiety is on the passenger to not miss a connection at each of those countries (sometimes at the middle of the night).

If EU regulated the train system as a continent, and brought in a whole “European rail system” and not just a ticketing system that works with individual country systems, that would be the beginning of rail as a great transport option. I still have hopes that it’d happen. I just wish it will happen sooner and in my life time.

The internet can remain anonymous at large, but we could require any company with an audience larger than, say, 10k people to operate within the parameters Haidt describes. In other words, you can be completely anonymous if using small communities, but if you are operating within a platform so large that it has the power to influence the outcome of elections, we need to regulate whether or not you are actually human. And yes, we do need to make you accountable if you break laws in these platforms. I do value anonymity immensely, yet I see no other way around this hurdle. The solution you describe - simply banning Twitter, Facebook, etc. - is more damaging in my opinion.
