It's not. It's BS but it's apparently popular view among certain audience (maybe Americans?).

Why are you people so cold and calculating when talking about feelings? Love and care do wonders and you are able to work everything out almost effortlessly. I have seen it in couples several times in the past and I am experiencing it for over 8 years now as well. With the right person it works automatically and there's zero sense of "sacrifice" there. In 8 years I haven't felt that I've made a compromise that hurt me or her. None of us ever felt like they had to cut a part of themselves to continue being in the relationship. We develop and grow together.

I'll never agree to this work-ethic-like expression of relationships. To me you look miserable for even using that framework of a language.
If restaurants lobbied Congress to outlaw grocery stores, as Tim Cook is attempting to do at this very moment [1], then yes, it would be bad for society to allow them to succeed.

One big issue I rarely see mentioned is how much worse modern society is for long-term couples, in many ways. While this doesn't give us any direct actionable advice, accepting it reframes the struggle of the couple against the world instead of just the classic "work on yourself", and that can lead to better cooperation.

Some other things being harder before ironically maybe us better at accepting that sometimes situations end with nobody getting what they want, and learning how to reach "good enough".
Lesson one: nothing in which the text matters, as dall-e 2 clearly has no language capability at all. That the model didn't learn that words in the prompt are best transcribed is perhaps not entirely surprising, but it sure is glaring.
Around here, they are called “bachelor loafs”. Since my family doesn’t like wheat bread, I buy a bachelor loaf a week. Saves about a buck, but much less spoilage. I don’t eat enough bread for a full loaf a week and am too lazy to deal with frozen bread.
I worked at Sonus Networks (now Ribbon[0]) in the early 2000's building VoIP solutions for telcos. We had a bunch of unexplained errors in a new installation in Denver. After much head scratching the engineers on the problem concluded that the higher altitude significantly increased the likelihood of impact by alpha particles and that that was the cause of the problem!

(IIRC we increased the shielding on the devices.)

Not surprised: it seems a common theme with crypto evangelists is the application of the blockchain to avoid sanctions. I don't think its deeply ideological (as in anti-America/Pro-NK) - it's more like they view US financial hegemony as a "competitor" to blockchain technology and a hinderance to global cryptocurrency adoption.

Why he would throw his life away like this seems silly. I don't see the point in taking payment for a presentation you could record and upload on youtube which can be readily viewed by North Korea's leadership.
No it isn't. It used to be, but Rust compilation is actually fairly fast these days. Definitely faster than C++.

It could still do with being faster but I don't think it's a showstopper anymore.

placebo controlled studies are not really possible for psychedelics anyways. There's literally no way someone takes a high dose of it and doesn't figure out they have taken psychedelics. You need slightly different tools for this type of studies so I think they are comparing effectiveness instead.
the problem wasn't the dishes or any other issue. the problem was that he preferred to agree to disagree instead of coming to a compromise. that's pretty dismissive.

that doesn't mean it's all his fault, but we don't know what her attempts to resolve the issue were.
Your opinion is not worth anything regarding this, as it goes against the common understanding of reseachers. The concept of an active placebo is from the 60s and is well know in medical studies.
I liked it cause it does one thing, and does it well, and there are no ads
You almost have to wonder if there is more we don't know. I can't imagine anyone person being able to fundamentally alter NK's understanding of Blockchain. Laugh at that country, but there must be a few doctorate level brains that can watch proxied-Youtube.

He knew what he was doing and he took a principled stand on sharing information with a very unsympathetic party. It would be like teaching mobsters how to clean an AK-47 when there is a specific law against it - sure, the law may sound bogus, but you broke it, and you aren't being exactly noble about it.
They absolutely do that. Binance itself imposed limits on cryptocurrency withdrawals not too long ago. If people leave their money in the exchange, they'll lend it out to borrowers which means they're generating inflation. They even have savings accounts and everything.

Exchanges are banks. They have the exact same problems, only with less regulation.
A nice person making tea for you is never a problem for anyone.
Did you take them alone? Did you go outside at all? I think your environment really affects your experience. I always tell people to go outside as much as possible, ideally on a nice sunny day. Walk around in a park or the woods and I bet you'd have a different experience. If you're alone and indoors, you'll most likely end up going deep inside your own head, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but things can definitely start getting dark.

I disagree that bigger cameras are better for macrophotography. I say this because of the physics of how light works in macrophotography, which matches my experience doing macrophotography with larger cameras (6x7cm and 4x5").

The long story short is that reducing the aperture has two effects on image sharpness. Smaller apertures increase the depth of field, bringing more of your scene into focus. Smaller apertures also introduce diffusion, which makes the whole image softer. This tradeoff means that there is a medium aperture which makes your image as sharp as possible.

Photographing people with a 35mm camera, the aperture which maximizes sharpness is often achieved with apertures somewhere around ƒ/5.6 or ƒ/8. It is advantageous to use a 35mm camera because the larger sensor size can reveal more detail and capture more light. 35mm also gives you access to larger apertures and those nice, blurry backgrounds.

In macrophotography, large cameras just aren’t as advantageous. The small apertures that you typically use will produce soft images, and the soft images can be captured well enough on a small sensor. Small cameras give you very blurry backgrounds to begin with, so you wouldn’t choose a large camera to blur the background. Additionally, small cameras require less lens movement, proportional to their size, to focus at the short distances required for macrophotography.

I do some macrophotography with my RZ67. Mostly pictures of flowers. It’s fun, but I know that it would be much more convenient to use a smaller camera, and I wouldn’t be sacrificing image quality. One of the big reasons I use the RZ67 is because it uses a bellows to focus, and the bellows is long enough that you can focus very close. However, there’s a lower limit to the size of the subjects I can comfortably photograph, and if I were serious about macrophotography, I would use a smaller camera.

Summary: Large cameras are better at taking pictures of large things, small cameras are better at taking pictures of small things.

That's not what I took out of the article. I took out that the glass by the sink is just the token symptom for one of the 10000 ways that the author ignored stuff that made his partner fumed, representing an underlying lack of respect, and ultimately left. He mentions it as the real reason:

This is a tough problem that we encountered at TrueCar. People buy a car every 7 years, so a customer today will not be top of mind in 7 years. Before the pandemic we were working on a feature that would keep track of cars you own and suggest maintenance, parts, etc that would maintain resale value.

For your home buying example, maybe there are services that you can offer related to home ownership (e.g. subscription based handyman or gardeners), so that you can be top of mind month after month, not just once a decade when people buy houses. You can then be a great resource when people go to buy a new house as well.

This is so sad, how does locking him up for 5 years really helps anyone? or keep anyone safer? He did something stupid maybe, but his work was exploring how digital systems can help bring peace to the world, and he thought a good place for that to happen is NK, so who doesn't agree with that? None of the information he presented was secret, it was all publicly available.

For comparison here is a company that actually facilitated NK building Nuclear Weapons, 145 violations of the law , they got fined $15k more than Virgil and had no jail time. https://www.complianceweek.com/regulatory-enforcement/td-ban...

This is a really unpopular answer, but I whole heartedly support it. Unfortunately, many people are looking for a solution (a quick fix) in a pill. They don't want to hear that perhaps the way they are living or the society they live in is not conducive to happiness.

Perhaps an alternative to intoxication is to work towards a world of human flourishing.

MIT.nano Immersion Lab Gaming Program awards third annual seed grants
Technically an "active control", though the patients appear to be selected to have been SSRI-resistant:

> The open-label trial had the additional criteria of TRD, as defined by no improvement despite multiple courses of antidepressant medication (mean = 4.6 ± 2.6 past medications; range, 2–11)

If i'm reading the study properly (disclaimer: I may not be) then the patients in the open-label trial had already failed an average of 4.6 typical antidepressants. So it's unlikely that they'd be responding to a starter dose of another SSRI (10mg escitalopram, though some were on 20mg perhaps by body weight)
Lobbying in the US is not the same as bribery. It's a system that has become corrupted, but corruption is not the system's main purpose.

Ostensibly, lobbyists exist to inform legislative staff about issues which they have no experience with, like an expert witness. You can't expect all ~550 legislators to have an in-depth understanding of every topic that they vote on.

The problem is that our legislative staffs started letting lobbyists come to them, instead of seeking out reliable impartial groups to work with. So when they need information about an upcoming vote, they end up soliciting advice from the wealthiest groups in those industries which the vote would impact.

It's an insidious form of regulatory capture. It might even be worse than bribery, because ordinary citizens cannot participate.
To be completely honest, I got the point, but I don't think this is good writing. Did anyone learn anything from the article? Probably not. Did anyone do any deeper thinking because of the article? Probably not.

It seem to me that this is something best handled with tag characters, like ¤XBT + (U+E007F) = ₿ (where the letters are from the tag block, U+E00xx). This mirrors one of the two systems for rendering national flags[0], just with a different starting codepoint, and can easily accommodate all the ISO 4217 currency codes and common unofficial extensions. If a system doesn't know how to render a particular glyph it can just fall back to showing the Roman capital letters.

The downside of this approach is size: each tag codepoint (including the end marker) requires four bytes in UTF-8, plus two for ¤, so the sequence above is 18 bytes long.

It seems like a wonderful replacement for Shutterstock or clip art libraries for all manner of articles and presentations. You just need another NN to filter out images too similar to a copyrighted image much like YouTube's content ID system. The images are much better matched to a theme than using Google image search and they do not need to be licensed.
I read the Atlantic article, but I don't think they made a strong enough argument to justify retiring the quote. Regardless of the circumstances that it was first used, it's meaning is still very true. It is still illegal to yell fire in a crowded theater and there are many exceptions to the first amendment. An american citizen cannot verbally harass someone, they cannot share child pornography, and they cannot go around telling everyone how to make a nuclear bomb.
I don't want or expect you to do a book report for me :) but would you mind linking a thread or two here that an enthusiastic moron could pull at for more detail?
This isn't necessarily a bad thing. It's probably good to stop strangling the economy for a bit once bad actors disappear. Moreover, in many cases the regulators themselves are corrupt (e.g., regulators exempting lenders from regulation leading up to the 2008 housing crash), so the regulation may not be delivering the intended value and taking another swing at it in a decade may not be the worst thing. Further still, in a few cases, the regulation may actually not make sense any more due to some change in the landscape--it might be similarly good to back off the regulation, see what problems arise, and address them accordingly (i.e., control loop).

I will point out that this comment is factually wrong.

The concept of luminiferous aether was discarded- not because of the discovery of Theory of Relativity, but becauae of the Michelson and Morley Experiment [0].

It is often joked about in High School and college Freshman Physics circles- Michelson received Nobel Prize in Physics [1] for a literally failed experiment.

> The question was: why is this any different from what happened at the Oscars?

Honestly, the problem with that question is that it's asking about the wrong object.

It's like asking what's the difference between shooting a person and shooting a target, when the bullets are identical. A bullet can be used to perform a lot of different goals, just like a piece of attention-grabbing content can. The thing to pay attention to isn't the content itself, but how it was aimed and who did the aiming.

To give a similar example: The text of the First Amendment says "Congress shall make no law...abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press...," yet slander and libel are still illegal. No amount of banging on that pithy text will change that actual situation.
Wacky. It's great that Linux extends the useful life of such machines, though.

> But doesn't this just mean that instead of writing your code and logic in Ruby you're writing it in RDL?

RDL allows the specification of types and effect labels only. You still write the tests in standard Ruby and synthesized code should satisfy the logic as checked by the tests.

> Also, it would be great to see some examples in the README or in an examples folder. It's kind of hard for me to tell exactly what I need to write and what to call to generate the Ruby.

Sorry for the sparse documentation, I plan to improve that. I have added an example to the readme. Other examples can be found in `test/benchmark` folder.
Practically speaking, why does compressibility matter in terms of password security?

I clicked around a bit, but can't understand how would this inform my decision of purchasing a part that's compatible with Linux.

Say I search for a laptop graphics card model and find that 4000 people are using it in their builds. That only tells me that it's minimally functional, not that it actually works at full features.

For example, it could be the that the video drivers for that card don't support[ 3d acceleration for Linux and people are just fine without it because they don't play games anyway. This info is missing.

Basically, I'd think a qualitative approach would be more useful than quantitative approach. I want to know that the thing I buy is going to work properly, not that I was suckered into buying something along with 1000 other people.

To give a real example this time, the Wi-Fi card I bought works fine under Windows, but the Broadcom drivers available in the Ubuntu distro didn't work properly at the time, so I had to go the old route of finding drivers that worked and then recompile the kernel modules on every kernel update. It got rather annoying fast. Linux Hardware Database would mark me as a user of this card (which would be correct), but it falsely implies that it's worth buying, which I think it isn't.
The fact it's been so long and they still haven't revealed and explained the root cause of the outage is going to make it hard to regain trust on their buggy, slow tools. The bright side of the incident is that competitors that somewhat care about users have a unique opportunity to stand out.
> I always find it weird when a charity or non-profit publically announces that they stop accepting certain forms of donations due to ideological reasons. It's a signal that the organization isn't particularly starving for donations.

It's as or more likely a signal that the cost of accepting those forms of donations is too high. Cost for non-profits can mean more than just currency, it can be things like ethics, morality, popularity, political stances, etc.
Maybe Unions in Canada and Europe don't suck...

Canadians largely consume the same media as the US --so it looks like it's not coming from there.

Grass roots is the actual vox populi and people just don't have a good experience when they interact with Union folk, so they talk bad about them. If people talk smack about WalMart, do you go ahead and then claim, "oh, well, that's a PORTRAYAL, it may be distributed but it's still a negative portrayal perpetuated by the grass roots and the media"?

People have a right to opinions based on experience --too bad if those opinions go against a particular vested interest.
> Hikaru was solidly middle of the pack in the Grand Prix...

This is factually true. He was like 6/16 in elo in the first and 7/16 in the third leg. He'll be 8/8 in the candidates. Literally nothing I've said discredits him. His performance was unexpectedly strong, that's giving extra credit for an impressive performance. But I'm also realistic.

> Anyways, if you're familiar with what makes Hikaru great, you understand why Hikaru has as good a chance as anyone.

Lol no, and Hikaru would be the first to tell you he has at most an outside chance. You claim you're not defending Hikaru, but you really, really are. In fact, you're reading things into comments that weren't actually said, and assuming these things that weren't actually said are criticisms of Hikaru and it's worth asking yourself why you're doing that.
