I’m trying to illustrate that using racism as a baseline to divide camps of thought is the root cause of the fracturing of society.

For example, I don’t understand how you expect a civil and good faith discussion by first labeling the opposing viewpoint as ‘pro slavery’ at the onset.

What has happened, you cannot influence. But you can certainly influence what's happening and what's going to happen.

The outcome of most actions in life is a coin toss. Hard work, dedication, and charisma can certainly affect the odds but at the end of the day it's a coin toss.

You will win some of them and you will lose some of them.
startup lawyers in California?

The thing about CDs and LPs is that they're a store of value, similar to older books. I sold my old LPs but definitely got less than I could have, and I'm not gonna make that mistake with my CD and tape collection. Right now there's at least 10 CDs I bought that have gone up in value in the past year alone.
The most straightforward reason to pick OCaml over F# is that OCaml's not tethered to the .NET world. Though this is also an excellent reason to pick F# over OCaml!

OCaml's type and module system is generally more sophisticated than F#'s - F# doesn't have GADTs, all the functor-y goodness of OCaml's module system, or even OCaml's weird-but-brilliant structurally typed object system. The new algebraic effects that OCaml's getting imminently are pretty killer, too. F#, of course, has several awesome features that OCaml lacks.
I can observe that Gender is one of the strongest social constructs that we have. But I think most of the ideas around them; Men shouldn’t cry, women are better caretakers; are not inherent, they’re a function of inertia. You can probably find more examples of people who don’t fit the mold in one way or the other than people who do.

Also, women not being “woman enough” for sports has been an issue prior to the idea of transition. See Surya Bonaly and Caster Semenya
no, the bit about having no money was a response to a claim that the advice was 'actionable' and i pointed out a situation where in believed it was not actionable dute to practical financial constraints.

however, my statement about entitlements of the performer being non existant along with the listener having no obligation to pay the performer because they stayed for some amount of time, was made on an moral level. i also believe it is a morally 'good' thing to compensate the performer if they provide you with entertainment, i just do not believe there is any obligation placed on you to do this by the performer. like you say, it is for me alone as the listener to decide. i objected to the use of the word 'owe' in the advice, basically.

hopefully that's a bit clearer...
WFH has certainly increased.

But it hasn't solved housing because the simple fact is, setting aside cost, most people want to live in big cities.
You have more options for everything from food to entertainment.

Then there's the politics...small towns tend to lean right. My brother got a job that lets him WFH, and he thought about moving to some podunk town in Iowa since he saw tons of houses on Zillow for under $75K, then he took a closer look in Google Street View and saw more Confederate flags than he felt comfortable with.
And even within that single country, each state and hospital then has their own requirements around EHRs. This ends up being my biggest issue with EHR is that you need to support infinite flexibility for all the unique snowflakes that exist. I'm convinced healthcare would improve in this country if the federal government standardized all of this to a single setup. This also includes the mess that is EHR in EMS.

Yes. It's the most vital book that everyone should read. It's also very communal. As in, it is much more enriching to study it with others, which is why forming a church is so important. Understanding the different translations and commentaries can go far in setting context for the various books and their passages. I've actually been re-reading Luke before bed each night this past week.
I'd do the opposite. I'd find out which of those things interests them, and then guide them strongly towards a popular solution for it. If they change their mind, that's fine. But too much choice can make it really hard to approach.

I still use Clover. It's a relatively old project and it's completely open source. It has been worked on by a lot of talented developers over the years, some of who are based in Russia—but I'm disinclined to dismiss it out of hand because of that. Particularly since it long predates the most-recent international craziness.

The new standard for Hackintosh bootloaders is OpenCore, but I've been using Clover for years and haven't had any problems with it. And, I suspect Clover has been tested more extensively with older versions of OS X, just by the nature of when it was developed and released.

I happened to know RedPanda founder back in the days he was at Concord.io (as a founder and a main dev). The level of obsession with performance and optimization of this guy was insane. He's not only extremelly skilled with C++, but also very passionate about rethinking large and complex systems and rebuilding them to enable 10-100x speed improvements. It's like his personal hobby – take a piece of software everyone use, and optimize it to the limits of physics, usually by implementing better version from scratch himself :) Plus, he's an excellent communicator. Watching their team working I was always thinking that successful companies can be built only with that level of passion and expertise in a single package.

Coming from an Anki background, I could really use keyboard shortcuts to speed review. If this site works well, I would forsee scaling out my usage (I usually review Anki for 30-45 minutes per day).

One other thing, there seems to be a large amount of extra vertical space on the review page. It looks like this may be because the rest of the text is using `visibility: hidden`, causing the elements to continue taking up space. Not sure if this is intentional but I think I'd prefer for this to be using something like `display: none` so that it doesn't take up any space at all.

Thank you! We felt that it was really important to get the design right, and I'm glad that you found it clean and simple. You're absolutely right that we were inspired by the graphic design of old breviaries and liturgical books.

Email is in some ways like a whole hidden social internet. A lot of people use email who have no interest in Twitter, Facebook, etc. And many of those people are really interesting. Radiopaper provides a way for them to have public conversations online without having to learn a new technology, and without having to worry about what might end up associated with their online presence in the absence of active management.

Acid rain resulted from the 30+ million tons of sulfur dioxide released into the lower atmosphere. To cut global warming in half, 25,000 tons of sulfur dioxide would be needed in the upper atmosphere. So, 3 orders of magnitude less SO2. Meaning, mitigating global warming with SO2 would not meaningfully increase acid rain.

> Every government on the planet is ALREADY determining what weather you and others have.

I agree that they are determining the weather already, and I don't like it. I don't want government to force cold weather on me. Do I get a choice on that? No. Neither do you.

All we get is the governance structure attempting to convince us of the validity and righteousness of their actions. If they do a good job, you will agree with what they say. That is propaganda.

I do not recognise that government can be righteous. All I see is forcible fine extraction from the citizens it purports to help. Climate change + technology will be an excuse to take away more freedoms (of travel, life style), levy more fines and licenses, while also justifying government intrusion and micro-management (how much water, electrity, travel credits). Greater gifts and power to those that already have power. Its a wheeze. The trick is to make you think you want it.
It is absolutely foundational.

You're talking about laws, but free speech isn't about laws, it's a notion of moral philosophy.

The sense in which it is foundational is as follows: you cannot have democracy without freedom of speech, because without it there is no free formation of opinions. You can't freedom of association or freedom of assembly without freedom of speech. These latter are interconnected, because an aspect of freedom of assembly is to assemble to hold, for example, political meetings.

Agree. I see it a lot recently where people embed their own tweets into articles they write. And often they don't even directly refer to the tweet in the main text - it is more of a weird mini summary of a few paragraphs of text just placed in there. Why? Is it in hopes readers will click through to twitter and follow the author?
It's a reputation you have built, and your future actions will be interpreted with that in mind. Just like some of will continue to remember what Microsoft has done to Linux.

Ayup. Had a close relative like this--he was about 10 years younger than me and still has a teenager. He got Delta and wound up on ECMO. He didn't make it.

All because anti-vax was part of his social identity.

And it's not like he didn't know. I got Covid Original Flavour(tm) and loudly told everybody around me how much it sucked (it was basically the 3rd sickest I've ever been in my life) and all the side effects I got from it.
It's a downside, not a "build around".
FoundationDB is operationally very complex; there's a multitude of processes, no reference architectures of at-scale deployments (althought those do exist; at least at Snowflake and Apple), no docker images with helm charts, and no cloud managed solution.

It's also extremely low level, at the query layer, it's simply an ordered map of (byte[], byte[]). The sibling comment also mentions optimistic concurrency control as a built-in primitive that can scale poorly with high contention. These two issues and similar others are left for the query layer to resolve. Foundationdb is not really intended to be used directly as a general purpose key/value store but to provide a distributed transaction and storage layer for a query layer to be implemented on top of it.

I think it's interesting to think about foundationdb as a higher-layer from rocksdb which has quickly become the de-facto standard for the single node storage-layer. For building highly scalable, globally distributed ACID systems, foundationdb could very well be the clear winner like you say, although systems in this category have opted to implement their own consensus and transaction layers. At least, all the spanner and calvin derivatives I know of (cloud spanner, yugabyte, cockroach, faunadb) implement their own. But for use cases where strict serializability is not required, there's ample room for innovation and I think this is where things like Anna can potentially fit in

A worthy goal indeed! We are very much looking at expansion of the team, as there are a number of additional features we'd like to roll out to strengthen the product (including a stronger mobile offering). We're exploring options for funding Radiopaper so we can kick it into high gear.

> there is certainly something wrong if people can’t openly discuss taboo truths without being slighted as a racist themselves, utterly dismissed, or censored.

There are things that are true and impactful and worth talking about, and some of those conversations get shut down because they make people feel uncomfortable. Your statement is not in that group.

There are statements that, while technically true, are misleading. They do not illuminate. They are so _obviously_ cherry-picked from the range of all possible statements that they reveal the bias of the person presenting them. Your statement is in this group.

Personally, I’m fine with people who reveal themselves to be racists to be labelled as racists. I’m fine with this category of statements being utterly dismissed. I’m fine with these statements being “censored”, as in people choosing not to publish them.
Exactly my thoughts - the author is using it 'in production' - speaking out loud to a forum where Facebook/Meta employees (and other Silicon Valley folk) are definitely observing is a rookie mistake
Thanks goodness I clicked on the link out of shear curiosity with this title - I might not have known it was written in Rust otherwise.
Real curious what his pricing was like, do you know?
It depends if his motivation is to build something or to learn stuff. Personally, when I was that age, I couldn't care less about learning anything unless it directly helped me achieve my immediate goals of whatever I was building. Turned out that was quite a lot. I learned about registers because I had to to optimize part of a game I was making. I wouldn't have sat down and studied some dry theoretical crap just for the sake of it. Block diagrams were a strong turn-off because you knew there would be no actionable information in them. Why do I care how this unit is connected to that unit? I just want to use the units! I'd naturally infer the structure of things once I was using them.
I can only imagine the way the person who pulled the trigger on the deletion script felt the moment they realized what had happened.

I’ve been there with much less significant incidents when a “routine” change turned into a potentially resume generating event. It’s not fun.

Ultimately the responsibility is with the organization that made it possible for an event of that scale to happen rather than the individual person who happened to trigger it but that doesn’t make it feel any better.

Python is a great option because it is high-level, easy to pick up, powerful and has a library for anything they are interested in pursuing. Something like streamlit is cool because you can write a small amount of code to build a useful web app that you can interact with. For data viz related things, Jupyter + Python (maybe Pandas, not SciPy or NumPy unless that sort of math is specifically interesting to them)

Javascript and webdev is also a decent option since you can build such interesting and shareable web apps quickly, but the frameworks and scaffolding can be intimidating and painful.

I would work backwards from a project/interest and pick a high-level language where it's easy to get a good enough solution and create something that feels like an accomplishment. I would want to teach both programming as well as the joy of programming.
Although you probably could use it for something else, Boa[1] is a good demonstration of this (it uses the GC crate, but the same principle probably applies).

We’re just going to ignore the trend of states eliminating general licensing for that age group and replacing it with time-, purpose-, and passenger-restricted provisional licensing that happened between the 1980s and now as a driver of that trend?
I’m not certain Bluetooth 5 is it: I have a MacBook Pro 2012 w Bluetooth 4.0. Using it with two Bluetooth devices results in different latency, depending on the device.

Corporations, working with governments, have done whatever they like. So it's not 'we' it's those elites that own companies. Get it straight.

Now they want to change things, and they want to 'socialise' their tab. They think it would be great if you and I pay for their bad decisions. They just need to do really good public relations to make you want the bill.

If they do it right, they will make money off the environmental issues too.

The upshot will be that government and corporations will be stronger, while the citizen/consumer will be weaker.

This is very neat! The premise (1-1 convos, messages published only on reply) is pretty unique.

It's not at all clear to me how that premise is going to lead to more civil conversations, but I am 100% behind people trying out different online conversation mechanics and seeing what falls out of them.

Stack overflow, 4chan, twitter, every phpBB ever... the communities they developed were all heavily influenced by the mechanics of interacting with them. I strongly believe that there's plenty of solution space left to explore with the problem of "how do we design interaction mechanics to produce the community we want." I applaud anyone exploring that solution space!
