Interesting point. I think you could characterize "being conquered by the Portuguese in the first place" as a negative outcome, so there's a plausible argument that the Portuguese were more willing to embrace innovation, which is how they gained the ability to conquer the Tukanoans in the first place.

On the other hand, if you dig into the history of colonization, indigenous cultures had a massive home field advantage, and it was common for Western colonies to utterly fail, either starving to death in the same lands that indigenous people were able to survive in or in some cases, completely defecting from their original culture and joining indigenous populations.
> why Russia should be permitted to invade Ukraine

That's awkward language. Who gets to grant permission for the invasion of a foreign country?

The question is whether it's legitimate to go to war against the invader. NATO is not a schoolmaster, issuing invasion passes. Unfortunately NATO doesn't have clean hands (Libya, and arguably Iraq).
Yeah, I've done the post-processing SVG version and it works fine, until the chart itself does have a node near the top left, and then things overlap.

So I need to test whether they will overlap, and suddenly it's a bag-o-nails. Or at the least, need to test if something is up there and not both including the extra, but that's ... inelegant.

The option of having an HTML template and including the SVG will work, and that's the one I'm probably going to go with. It needs tweaking.
Those would have to remain atomic by taking explicit more granular locks.

But a friend recommended both of those books and they helped me get back on track- PS. I am very much an atheist, so the recommendations might seem offtrack but both of the books carry remarkable advise.

You have that choice by using the Fediverse.

The advantage of a company and its TOS is that new standards can be establish quickly and innovation can happen. The social networks of old and the Fediverse faded into the background because maintaining old standards becomes an obstacle to innovation.
Let’s not forget that writing C extensions is the easy part.

The even more sucky part is to distribute them and make sure it works on every OS, without every user having to apt install build-utils before they can pip install your package and then spend rest of the day debugging some rare compilation error because of a header file mismatch with what’s installed on the system. The python packaging space is already complicated enough even without considering native modules.
True, they provide a few months of "extended support releases as a stopgap for users to transition". My point is that they're not at all like LineageOS, which tries to keep old devices working indefinitely.
> b) To attempt to diversify from this single source of income. Except this will never happen, nothing will ever come close to the income ads generate for them. They know this, but they have to look like they’re trying, both internally and externally.

I’ve heard a lot of people repeat this, and I don’t think I understand where it’s coming from.

Advertising is just a revenue model, it’s not something a company necessarily needs to diversify. This seems to me like saying Walmart is in a precarious position because all their revenue comes from sales.

It’s the product offering that needs diversification. Walmart can’t only sell coconuts.

The ad revenue is coming from pretty diversified sources: search, video/tv, maps, email, calendar, web browser, mobile …

> Honestly the argument sounds alot like the fictitious argument we make here: "cars kill X number of kids per year, let's ban cars!".

Giving the government or some other entity access to all of your media is not analogous to the physical reality of children being at more risk due to being around more moving cars (especially since those cars have increased in height and have reduced visibility).

It is objectively true that children who grow in up a village without cars are safer while playing outside by themselves than a village where large cars are zipping by at 40mph. Whether or not the benefits of cars are worth the loss of free movement for children is a different discussion.

This does nothing to dampen the hoarding of homes for investors that are looking for a place to park their cash due to low returns/high risk from other asset classes.

I'd agree. Took me a couple of reads to make sense of it.

Keep the puns, I just think with a bit of adjustment the examples would be easier to understand.
It's not necessarily that people thinking 20% interest is safe is greedy. It's that many people don't have the financial literacy to understand that something paying that high of an interest rate is going to be risky. And that if someone 'guarantees' an interest rate of 20% then it's probably a con.

So many people just lack the basic literacy to recognize when something sounds too good to be true. And in the crypto market it's worse than that, because all of the memes and in-group behavior functions to drown out warranted skepticism.

This is what has been done historically (and I think still today) to "treat" Achilles tendinosis, which is a surgical technique called scarification. The surgeon makes small cuts in the tendon to promote inflammation and blood flow and thus increase the speed of tendon repair. Tendon injuries tend to become chronic because of poor blood flow to the tissue.

I had a similar surgery 14 years ago (part of the heel bone was sawed off and the tendon was "scarred"), followed by 2 weeks on crutches. I was coming from more than 2 years of terrible pain in my right Achilles. Three months after the surgery, performed arthroscopically, I ran a 10K. I never had any problems or pain after surgery.

Intriguingly, being an eternal explorer of alternative methods, I had tried using a number of remedies/procedures to heal my Achilles (acupuncture, "shock waves," electrostimulation). I was an athlete and it was all under medical supervision. Virtually nothing worked except cortisone injections, which only mask the pain for a few weeks.
But what did work, albeit for a few hours, was Alpha-stim ("an electrotherapy device that relieves post-traumatic, acute and chronic pain through painless electrical stimulation"). I applied the microcurrents with the stick and pads provided (Alpha-stim is mostly used transcranially) and I remember the pain that was torturing me disappeared for a few hours. I went out for a run and felt nothing, it felt miraculous.
I feel that electro-medicine has been understudied and under applied.

This is why I think we'll see some extensive crypto regulation soon enough, forcing companies that turn real money into crypto to filter out people who don't understand that crypto is a speculative market first and a payment platform second. You can't realistically prevent people from mining or trading shitcoins but you can put regulatory pressure on the ways people access them.

Thr only way to do this effectively is blanket regulation on all cryptocurrency, as otherwise you'd end up with an endless cat and mouse game chasing new coins people use to trick people into entering the market and exchanging entrycoins for the latest scamcoins.

This is all pretty terrible in my opinion, because cryptocurrency could've been so much better. Sadly, the idealists who wanted an independent currency were drowned out by the ruthless speculators who are only in it for their personal profits.

That data shows only that republicans’ support of gay marriage follows the same trend as democrats’, at a lower level. That indicates to me a cultural shift for this single issue more than a political one.

The data in the article below paints a different overall picture, though I went to the source and did not find the information on what their metrics were for the liberal / moderate / conservative spectrum. It’s likely in their downloadable data sets but I am on mobile.

The difference here is more likely to be between the Kindle (a notably low-power-draw device) and the other newer devices, especially the ones whose charging circuits are designed to take advantage of modern USB-C power delivery capabilities because people want their devices to charge faster.

There is nothing inherent to MicroUSB that draws less power except that it is older than the standards that allow USB to provide more power (and thus used in devices that don't draw as much power).
In my opinion, and with acknowledging the downsides, the parts of modern IT that are capable of transmission for the purposes of duplication should have some degree of automated surveillance for safeguarding our populations from harm. Not just for CSAM but for other dangerous information as well. For example, stolen financial information like credit card numbers. For strictly single user stuff, I'm less sure. For example, personal, non-shared backups seem different to me than shared backup drives.

I understand that an enterprising young hacker can encrypt it manually, but that's akin to someone becoming a gunsmith. It takes effort and usually the people that go through the training are the types of people we trust with the knowledge anyway.

Now I've personally worked on software to help stop the spread of CSAM, so I have my biases here, but I also understand the dangers of unmitigated surveillance. But just as we trust our democracies with munitions, I think we should do the same with surveillance, provided that courts and the rule of law are strongly enshrined. From what I know, this is the case in my country of Canada.

I want to live in a world that is safe and free. It takes work and discussions to achieve both at the same time, but I have faith that we can do it if we try.

As a Finn (so I happen to know _my_ reasons for why I support joining NATO perfectly well), I'm curious: how do you perceive the media narrative to be biased or wrong?
Mark, I worked with you for a number of years at Heroku. I apologize for not being brave enough to reveal my identity but I think the time has come for the old guard to throw in the towel.

I was certainly a part of that old guard and was a loud critic of sfdc's progressively worse plans and generally how they treated us but we're well past the point that this ship could be turned around. Even if sfdc decided to significantly reinvest in the platform (which I can not imagine anyways) recent events have caused the customers to no longer trust Heroku to be good stewards of the platform. Heroku has no chance of making it at this point.

What's worse is Heroku is actively harming the ecosystem by lumbering along like this. Despite how bad things are, it's still keeping investment from upstarts trying to compete against them because Heroku still has plenty of market share. You're not being honest with your customers what the future really looks like for the platform—those customers would be far better served on something they won't have to migrate off of in the next year or two.

Move on: let someone else take the reins and be what Heroku could've been if it had the proper investment.
To add some more context, NATO's refusal to establish a NFU policy dates to the Cold War, when NATO military leaders concluded that defending central Europe from Soviet invasion required a credible threat to deploy tactical nuclear weapons. Confronted with that threat, Soviet forces would have spread out to avoid concentrations large enough to be vulnerable, making a conventional defense feasible by preventing the outnumbering Soviet army from massing to take defended positions, which in turn would provide time for the USA to deploy large armies into Europe. Without this credible threat, the Soviet army would have had the option to pick off a NATO country (i.e. Western Germany) by massing armor columns and forcing a surrender before the USA could deploy a comparable army across the Atlantic.

NATO no longer faces this threat, but the policy remains.
My GF works in sales. Nominally she makes $29/hr which is pretty good for someone with only a HS degree, and she is an hourly sales person so she gets time and a half. However, she manages a $1 million dollar portfolio of sales that are already completed and currently in between contract signing and fulfillment, and when the orders are fulfilled she gets .5% of the total contract amount.

Orders take about 6 weeks to be fulfilled barring catastrophe, so when it's all calculated out every 3 months she makes $29 * 62.5 (40 hours plus 15 * 1.5 = 40 + 22.5 paid hours at base rate) * 12 (weeks) + $10,000 bonus every 3 months = roughly $31,750 or $10,567 a month before taxes.

That's almost as much as I make with a BS degree in the tech field. It's crazy, but then again she does work more hours than I do.

Having a state that you don't trust on your borders is not a justification for invasion. Hell, the UK trusts neither France nor Germany; both have attacked the UK, and planned to invade it, in the last 200 years. Lots of countries have neighbours they don't trust, but (on the whole) they don't launch unprovoked wars.

I've heard something different to this and I have to say that it helps in my language learning. You shouldn't correct someone who gets the language wrong, but accept anything that you understand as correct enough. If there is some possible confusion in the meaning, however, you should ask for clarification (e.g. "do you mean you're going to the movies now, or that you went to the movies yesterday?") The language learner will follow up with a different phrasing and/or with questions about grammar that will teach them more than a quickly forgotten correction.
It doesn't matter at all. When you see the landing page of the product and some existing customers, it means that the market is valdiated.

I think the op is intrigued by his ego. The existing product is a good inspiration to valdiate his assumption
