one point which I think some have missed -- the "missing chunk" is probably due to a stroke the patient suffered as a baby; recovery from damage that occurred when the brain is still extremely plastic might be very different from damage suffered later, or through physical trauma.
I see. Many thanks
Even if not, it's only a matter of time before it does happen. Not an if.

Two big bloopers

1) Mongols never invaded India. Even though they reached river Sindh while hunting a Muslim ruler. They had deference towards India - the land Buddhism arose from. Some historians say lack of grassland etc but they never came here. Even your Wiki link says the same except for the disingenuous headline. Kashmir was invaded my Muslims from Mongol captured regions not Mingols themselves. Mongols were not Muslims.

2) Show me the Sanskrit text of manusmriti talking about anything but the varna system.

I have studied this in original Sanskrit and dont need cut/paste reference to bolster common but false propaganda from Wiki or WhatsApp university. Satmaye Jayate - truth is always victorious.
A lot of non-developers at Ed tech companies are/were teachers. Not sure if that is helpful.
Eventually we’re going to have Smart Drywall, so maybe we should enjoy our current relative freedom from ads.
I've had two bouts of SSNL, both in the right ear. The first only took my high end frequencies, so a hearing aid did work, but the second just about flatlined my hearing in that ear, so the hearing aid only gives the results you're referencing. I have a date for surgery to implant a bone-conducting hearing aid next month, it should hopefully restore hearing from that side. Definitely talk to your ENT about that option, the processor mounts magnetically (no cochlear implant style port in your head), so you can get away from the feeling of a hearing aid plugging up your ear!
Gas in electricity production is mostly not used for base load - it’s peaker plants that need to spin up and adjust load within minutes. Nuclear replaces coal, not gas in most use cases.

Heat pumps are subsidized in germany.

And if you want to blame the greens - they’ve been the most vocal party asking for energy independence, subsidizing energy efficient technologies and were very vocal against nord-stream 2. It’s just that they weren’t in power at all in the last decade.
Yeah LGs are great, no long loading times. Only issue I've found is that it doesn't like antenna signal being too strong (I've got an attenuator to make mine work)
> a working-class family wishing to buy a home to live

What people picture is owning houses. Landtax will not meaningfully make that more affordable. It will make holding on to land more expensive, therefore really putting pressure to extract the most value from it. Homes really aren't doing that. That will mean more capital improvements; more units on smaller lots, more apartments, ...

It will curb speculation, lower rents in the aggregate, but ownership of land will remain expensive, especially for poorly improved land like family homes.
"Minimalist design". And yet bristling with USB-A ports. Hmmm.
Shared background can be a good thing and can apply to good things, but it is also the basis of all discrimination, tribalism, prejudice, or even at it's most benign, inconsideration or ignorance.

The examples are the rule and it's instead hard to think of any exceptions.
>Both sides think the platform is institutionally biased against them.

Hilarious coming from someone who used to work at Reddit. Apart from blatantly illegal stuff, the one thing most likely to get a subreddit in trouble with Reddit's Anti-Evil Operations is allowing open debate about whether trans women are women. Even if the mods take every effort to make rules and remove posts calling for violence etc. and merely allow debate over whether or not they are women, they are guaranteed to run afoul of the AEO team. There is a subreddit I frequent that allows this, and the mods there are very transparent about when the AEO removes posts, and it is pretty much always posts about whether trans women are women (the remainder of ones that get removed by the AEO tend to be people arguing about lowering the age of consent, but the ratio of trans to aoc posts that get removed is like 10:1).
I don't think the issue is taxing land per se, or even property, it's making illegal and taxing practices that are seen as immoral or not in societys best interest. This gets dangerously vague, but it has always been puzzling to me why actually blighted properties, essentially abandoned by owners not living anywhere near the area, werent taxed at ridiculously high rates.

The other side of the coin is municipalities abusing power to disenfranchise legitimate landowners. It seems like rules around all of this could be made clearer.

Sometimes it seems like you can go so far in avoiding a slippery slope that you're nowhere near one, but also nowhere near where you need to be.

I suspect we have a language issue, I quite literally do not understand what it is that you are trying to convey.

The one part that I understand is that you think that I have the 'one true view' which is clearly not the case, all I have is my opinion. I'm not 'discarding' any country because they are still there, all I'm trying to do is to figure out their reasoning for positioning themselves as they do in contrast to what the article claims, which I think is simply not supported by the facts.

The rest of your comment I can either not parse, make sense of or reply to, sorry. If English is not your first language then it must be frustrating not to be able to communicate your ideas clearly, it isn't my first language either but I would definitely encourage you to keep trying because that is the only way to improve. Thanks!
Would love to hear what those “certain” subreddits were!
> The fact consumers love something doesn't make it a good thing.

It does make it a good thing for them. Which begs the question: why is it that you get to decide what is or isn't a good thing? Or: why shouldn't people be able to decide for themselves? The answers against the latter are, at their root, paternalistic and elitist.

> they love also facebook

Ah, yes. The old "facebook is as bad as cigarettes" trope. It feels a lot like the claims around TV in the 70s and 80s. "It's rotting people's brains!" But society kept on chugging. It is one thing to object to Facebook's business model. It is another entirely to deem it "Bad For You". Billions of people like using the product and it hasn't hurt their lives. In fact, it has improved them.
Don't worry. Managers will never let distributed or remote be the default. People would eventually realize that we don't really need managers except a couple times a year. They need to be in-person so they can be seen around the office, so people will assume they're necessary.
My new 65" Sony has never been connected to the internet. We can't get 4K resolution, presumably because it's never been updated. Sony tells me they don't have a USB update available "yet." Had I known this would happen I wouldn't have bought it - my old plasma is still working. I didn't wish to connect just for the update and then disconnect over concerns that they would use that connection to download ads onto the firmware at the same time.

I suspect everyone is waiting for the news to drop that either a top of line ARM machine is released outside of Apple, or for AMD/Intel to announce a competitive ARM chip.

Computer enthusiasts have heard for ages that X86 is bloated, and that alternate instruction sets are better if only the tooling good catch up. Now that Apple is pushing ARM across the line, and ARM servers are becoming popular - folks want to see the linux ARM machine.
That this is a battle between the USA and Russia is propaganda. Pushing that message allows a kind of moral ambivalence. But that's not the truth. This is a brutal invasion of a smaller weaker country by its neighbor. Despite all the fog of war, that much is clear. Claiming that nothing can be known at this point is denies that facts that are readily accessible now, of which there are plenty.

If you don't trust news or social media, that's fine. There are facts out there ready to be found in other ways. There are thousands of twitter feeds, embedded journalist, first person accounts, etc. But if you're not wiling to look for facts, and not willing to receive them from reputable summary sources, then you're an easy target for these kinds of propaganda tricks.
Buy me a fighter jet! [video]
I think the biggest problem is that these companies all seem to establish themselves in the most expensive metro areas. Even with the good salaries of being a software engineer, a lot of people would hate to feel like most of their money is going towards taxes, rent, etc... and forget about being able to buy a decent house in the bay area, the housing prices seem to continually increase upward while the majority of the population is left renting. Most of my well paid coworkers in the bay area hate commuting to work because they live like an hour away.
Yea, some of the points have merit, but it's a bit biased. The conclusion that Europe will move away from the US is dubious. I think most likely it will bring them all closer together. We're seeing even peoples in Finland and Sweden now in favor of joining NATO.. .
I can second that using JSONB with postgres is fast and easy, the features and operators to query json structures are also about as extensive as you'll ever need.
The OECD average GDP spent on healthcare is 9.9% (US spends 17%). That mean 1 out of every 10 dollars of economic activity go to healthcare alone.

So you could your 40 hour work week back to 4 hours, that would just pay for healthcare, and healthcare only.

What we talk about when we talk about recursion
Looks like newer TVs only. My Sony X900F doesn't have this option. It's about 3-4 years old now? But I also never updated Android on it (still on Oreo) and I declined all agreements (like Samba).

I liked it, but hated how slow it was compared to my older dumb TV. Pressing a button and waiting for something to happen on the home screen was ridiculous.

After 2 years, I went nuclear and disabled as many apps and background services as I could. Lo and behold, I suddenly had a snappy TV with only the 3 streaming services I need on it.

This is what I continue to want. A TV that can do streaming without additional hardware, and without the insane level of tracking and ads that are so prevalent.

Paris outskirts, halfway between Versailles and St Germain en Laye. They did have to install an external compressor/heat exchanger unit which would have been harder if they didn’t own a single-family detached home.
To the way it once was, never. In many places, these glory days had a train on the tracks a couple times a day in each direction and that was attractive. People were happy sleeping on trains and the time taken to travel was usually less than the alternative of steam boats, dirt roads, or horseback.

Even in the best case of NYC where much of its rail infrastructure stayed active, and the area population soared, subway ridership hasn’t bounced back to 1946.
I'm on year 3 of not accepting the EULA on my 'smart' tv. It has never been connected to the internet. It is effectively a dumb tv that was slightly cheaper because it has dormant bloatware.
Yes, there's at least one option for that now!

This (2013) article[1], when talking about "High Entropy Bottom-up Randomization" says that:

"For compatibility reasons, this feature is disabled by default and must be enabled on a per-application basis. This is because some 64-bit applications have latent pointer truncation issues that can surface when dealing with pointers above 4 GB (significant bits set beyond bit 31)."

Although OP had an issue with an offset rather than an absolute position, I imagine it would also handle that case.

I know all about this, my Plex server is rapidly approaching 200TB of content.

Is it really convenient? Sure! As long as you ignore all the work that goes into setup and maintenance. I’d be deluding myself if I tried to pretend that this is anything but yet another part of a really expensive and time consuming home theater hobby.

Even at it’s best DIY piracy is still miles away from just being able to open up Netflix and start watching.

Of course you can pay for someone else to maintain the Plex server for you, which isn’t a horrible option.
Well he mentions that porn is "imagined moral degeneracy". I imagine he believes debating trans people's status is "actual violence".

Tools like

https://www.alteryx.com/

are really limited in my view because they are based on a relational model that requires joins to do things that are easily expressed without joins in the object-relational (basically JSON) model.

"Boxes and lines" data pipelines that involve joins are a bear to maintain because of the structural instability: what looks like a little change to management can turn a very simple pipeline that goes in one direction to a pipeline that splits into four streams that have to get reassembled at the end.

If you were passing JSON documents between the nodes you can keep the stuff that would have been split out and then joined inside the document and the pipelines are a lot easier to maintain.

The people who develop those tools, however, are in love with the relational model because it is SIMDable, not branchy, easy to implement at hyper-speed so there is going to be an opportunity for people to make one that gets much better customer satisfaction.

To do that though somebody has to ask the question of "what algebra does this thing work over?"
Have you considered moving to a country that values education?
You wife will probably see a pay raise, strong union rights and better work life balance.

Some countries that come to mind would be the Netherlands, Germany, the nordics.

An added bonus to this is that your family will be able to benefit from the strong family support programs that these countries offer - tax breaks, grants, friendly city planning which gives children more independence.
> big cities are increasingly unlivable

There's no inherent reason why this should be so. Big cities can and do provide a marvelous life experience.

But almost all big cities in the US suffer from total mismanagement. IMHO, the greatest immediate goal for the US should be to work out how to correct that.
What should the threshold be? 53,000 stars? 50,000 stars? 25,000? 100? No matter what number you pick, there will be someone with fewer stars who considers their stars important enough to merit a warning.

Unless you set the threshold to 1, in which case it's just more meaningless noise, like the repository name (apparently) is.
> Then the actual cost. While you can get a cheap site up and going for not much. If you get even slightly popular you are now looking at a decent amount of money for many people. You may not see a couple hundred a month as 'no big deal' but many people do. You can pay a provider to take some of that patching work out of your hands but you pay for that.

Agree with the whole message and tone of your comment but wondering about this bit. We run a bunch of Wordpress sites with decent traffic and a bunch of badly optimised front-end, heaps of old plugins from decades passed: we can hit 20k uniques and a million requests per day, with nightly backups for $30/mo. It could be less if we didn't care about completely surviving every traffic spike and bot crawl.
> But the truth is that all kinds of things disappear all the time in all aspects of life. The web is no different at all.

Glad we have the Wayback Machine then. But if you don't want your blog mirrored by Wayback you can declare that in your `robots.txt` file. Do this:

User-agent: *
Disallow: /

But that doesn't mean crawlers/bots will honor that request and presume any content you post publicly will be backed up somewhere. If not somewhere on the net, then on someone's hard-drive!
You can have the best of both worlds where you WFH and also your company pays for you to come out once every 3 months for a week or so.

Post processing, and other parts of rendering are still occurring. For example, if you game, have an Xbox, and a Sony TV, VRR is a feature that gets added to the TV after you buy it.

Because the baseline view of the Russian government is that Ukraine achieving independence during the collapse of the Soviet Union was a mistake. Vladimir Putin is a Russian irredentists who does not believe Ukraine has a right to exist as a state unless under the Russian thumb.

This is not in dispute. This has been pretty much outlined explicitly by Vladimir Putin in several writings and speeches.

> I will start with the fact that modern Ukraine was entirely created by Russia or, to be more precise, by Bolshevik, Communist Russia.

Continuing in reference to the creation of the Ukrainian SSR:

> This immediately raises many questions. The first is really the main one: why was it necessary to appease the nationalists, to satisfy the ceaselessly growing nationalist ambitions on the outskirts of the former empire? What was the point of transferring to the newly, often arbitrarily formed administrative units – the union republics – vast territories that had nothing to do with them? Let me repeat that these territories were transferred along with the population of what was historically Russia.

...

> Why was it necessary to make such generous gifts, beyond the wildest dreams of the most zealous nationalists and, on top of all that, give the republics the right to secede from the unified state without any conditions?

> I would like to emphasize again that Ukraine is not just a neighboring country for us. It is an inalienable part of our own history, culture and spiritual space

- Putin, 21 February 2022 [http://en.kremlin.ru/events/president/transcripts/67828]

> I am certain that the true sovereignty of Ukraine is possible precisely in partnership with Russia

- Putin, 12 JUL 2021 [https://tass.com/world/1313223?utm_source=google.com&utm_med...]

The Russian head of state does not deny that this war is intended to dominate Ukraine and bring it effectively under Russian control and end its independence and its drift away from the Russian sphere of influence. You don't have to act like it's a complicated situation - not even Russia is pretending that it is.
>They know that MRIs can show different parts of the brain getting more or less blood flow

I always wondered about this as a casual person with a heavy consumption rate of neuroscience. I fallen in to thinking of the "active" brain areas similar to lakes. places where activity seems to collect. if you remove the lake bed (fill it in? analogy breaks down here) then the activity will just collect itself in a different location. It might look / act a bit different from how it was before, but would still fit the profile overall - hence 'retraining' being possible.

disclaimer: just personal thoughts, not backed by anything specific
The author strikes me as someone not really in touch with popular culture or even global politics.

> NATO is an institution that does not, for instance, seem able to withstand the thick desires of Vladimir Putin because it scarcely recognizes that he has any.

As a Polish citizen I have to say that the initial reaction to Putin's invasion, aside from shock, was a feeling that this could have been us hadn't we joined NATO over 20 years ago.

Still no guarantee that he won't do it(there was a major scare in 2014), but it's obvious that he's picking non-NATO members first.

On to another topic: Sex. That paragraph is the most out of touch in my view, because it's deeply rooted in the "war on drugs" mentality. I was of the impression that nowadays vices are seen as more of a symptom of a deeper problem than the problem itself. Or is it just my bubble?

Also pornography is not any more the pinnacle of degeneracy the author thinks it to be[0]. With the advent of curated content, platforms with safe, functional payments and performers increasingly securing their rights - especially to privacy, it has become somewhat of a mainstream thing. Case in point: OnlyFans is essentially a household name now.

[0] I suppose the author only wrote this because he's unaware of the existence of the furry fandom or anime waifus. Those two phenomenons went where traditional pornography can't and won't go.

As for art: most of modern art doesn't happen in galleries or closed meetings with expensive wine and other cartoonishly stereotypical attributes.

Modern art is chiefly memes produced and shared by the public for the public - anonymously at that. It even went through a series of trends, each spanning a few years, like the enigmatic, surreal "E" memes, with their characteristic "deep fried" art style. To this day it isn't clear how did this achieve mainstream adoption, what were they actually expressing and for what purpose. There probably wasn't any and people just collectively decided to make it so, which makes this the purest manifestation of art possible.
