> I wish the technical people I follow on Twitter would leave the politics out, I follow them for their technical insights.

I think this is a significant flaw in the design of Twitter. You should be able to follow a subset of someone else's tweets rather than the binary all/nothing we have now.

The article you linked literally says you are not correct.

> The swastika symbol, 卐 or 卍, is an ancient religious symbol in various Eurasian cultures, now also widely recognized for its appropriation by the Nazi Party and by neo-Nazis.[1] It continues to be used as a symbol of divinity and spirituality in Indic religions, including Hinduism, Buddhism and Jainism.

Appropriation and following complete perversion of the original symbolic meaning does not make the resulting output interchangeable with the original symbol.

Even Hitler himself in his book Mein Kampf states;

> "I myself, meanwhile, after innumerable attempts, had laid down a final form; a flag with a red background, a white disk, and a black hooked cross in the middle. After long trials I also found a definite proportion between the size of the flag and the size of the white disk, as well as the shape and thickness of the hooked cross."

Nowhere, ever, was the Swastika and its symbolic meaning mentioned as a direct inspiration for the Hakenkreuz. Instead, the Nazis attributed their own ideology to the symbol, but not even to the Swastika itself, but to its form, and furthermore that doesn't change anything about the Swastika itself.

It is not the same symbol.

If we're going to argue about the visual aspect of the symbol, please look at this image and tell me if these two symbols look like the same to you.

I guess I am a diehard fan of only small iPhones, as since 2007 my lineup has been: iPhone 3, iPhone 3Gs, iPhone 4, iPhone 5, iPhone SE, and currently 12 Mini.

As far as I am concerned, the mini IS the flagship. I would never even consider buying one of the larger models, as I consider them to be subpar, unpleasant devices to carry and to use. I'd choose to carry no phone over having to carry a full-sized phone, they have become too large to be considered conveniently portable.

For me, the perfect smart phone would be the same size and shape as a credit card, edge-to-edge screen on all sides, and approximately 3mm thick. And it would run iOS of course.
> There is a strategic argument for onshoring pretty much anything that isn’t utterly frivolous

I would probably adjust that to "onshore anything that takes longer than <insert number of years> to spin up".

You can spin up funiture factories in a year or less. You probably don't need them onshored. A steel mill probably takes 3-5 years. You probably should have a local alternative. You can't spin up ASML in less than 10 years. There definitely should be a local ASML alternative.

It's not necessarily redundant or useless, there are some cards that will trigger off exiling permanents, or count the number of permanents that have been exiled during the turn to change how powerful an ability is, so if it was destroyed in battle or kill-spelled and instead exiled, it would be more useful than it simply being destroyed unexiled since it would trigger the ability or increase the count of permanents exiled that turn.

Twitter is simple, its purpose is to broadcast in short form. Like newspapers, magazines and radio and TV before it.

They are. Chinese and Russian “advances” in hypersonics are pure marketing. The US was testing scramjets in the 1960s. The US has a hypersonic space plane. Alas, the media fell for it and billions are now being spent on “catching up” with our “peer” competitors.
Yes!

- hired.com is good for startups; startups are often matching salary and benefits with top engineering firms and don't do geopay.

- (as usual) keyword optimize your resume and sync it with LinkedIn. A lot of managers, corporate recruiters, and third party recruiters are using LinkedIn search to find candidates. I use LinkedIn as a medium-quality queue.

There is a strange rash of companies putting their total comp (and base pay) under NDA. I generally let recruiters know that I think it's important to be up front about compensation from the beginning and starting the conversation from a place that makes sense with my experience.

Yes, I let recruiters know that if I have to do a leetcode interview then they go to the back of my queue (I can do them decently well; I'm just exhausted with them and don't see value). If they're project based or where they want to look at my GitHub then they go to the front. One thing that helps them meet in the middle is that I explain that I'm developing a short list of five companies and that I will knock all of those interviews out in one week and promise not to hedge offers against each other.

I read that series when it first came out, so it's been a while. Forgive me if it's hazy. I completely understand the political divide and how it started in the late 80s. Limbaugh was really the frontrunner of our modern version of it. Fox took his model and applied it to TV. Many traditional news companies adopted that model for the left, and here we are. Social media is really just an extension of that.

I'm not sure how it's a threat to democracy though. I certainly don't believe it originated on social media either. People on both sides repeat some really dumb shit, but that's always been the case.

Are you saying hipsterism can't be very good because it didn't scale?
If you are going to critique the methodology please provide a reference where this is not a robust method. You may be right but how can I tell without some references? The scholar.google search for "controlling for genetics using polygenetic scores" brings up many recent papers about this methodology and the arguments made in these seem stronger to me than this one comment. IMO on the internet when people can easily misinterpret the science, its important to be clear as possible especially when we take things down.

As far as scientific reports goes its a fine journal, its run by nature. It's not on the same planet as the predatory journals that spam inboxes. I worry that people will read your comment, assume you speak from authority, and discount any work they might see coming from that journal when we both know that good science can be found in scientific reports, and that impact factor is more strongly correlated with "sexy" or expensive science than good science anyhow.
Any Alternative for Katacoda?
It’s really hard to prevent a free-tier service from being abused.

Thanks katacoda team, again, your service is appropriated.
I'll second this. My recommended order is:

3 - Camera

Even when you see people on the news through webcams, their pictures and audio often are not well lit or mic'd.
We had a surprising result using a "proper" camera instead of a webcam for a task.

We needed to take a picture of a particular thing every 15 seconds over a weekend. Our first though was to get a cheap webcam that has some reasonable interface to retrieve static images.

Then someone remembered that the owner of the company was doing some personal projects that involved photography and he had a bunch of cameras in his office. One of them was a Canon Digital Rebel. That could be controlled by a computer.

The owner always liked to save money, so agreed to let us use the Canon for the weekend. I wrote a script to trigger it every 15 seconds, set it running Friday before I left, and came back Monday to see how it went.

What I found was a dead camera. The electronics seemed fine, but something mechanical was broken. A bit of poking around on camera forums turned up that something in the mechanics of the Digital Rebel didn't like extended rapid picture taking, and apparently every 15 seconds counted as rapid if you were doing it for more than a few hours.

We then bought an under $100 Logitech webcam that ran a web server on its ethernet interface that made available a URL that when fetched gave you a static image of whatever the camera was currently looking at. It was simple to write a script to hit that URL every 15 seconds and save the result in a file named with the current timestamp. That ran flawlessly over the weekend capturing all the images we needed.
I mean...sort of? You're right about everything...but the way you portray it is..not so black and white. Life is quite nuanced.

> iPhone Mini has been weak in battery department

might have been true for mini 12, but mini 13 has amazing battery life, certainly nothing like 2020 SE which is truly abysmal.
The problem is a lack of education more than anything. People simply believe that plastic = bad, despite the fact plastic bags should probably be about the last plastic thing banned. Plastic bags take a miniscule amount of energy to make and can be thrown away and captured in a landfill indefinitely after that. Now we get varying levels of "reusable" bags that cost more economically and environmentally and the break even point is basically non existent. "A few months" of forgetting bags means the average person likely consumed more energy in reusable bags that weren't re-used than years of plastic bags. Plastic bag bans are spending dollars to save pennies, most of these laws really just make people feel better rather than provide actual benefits.

Want to save the environment? lets focus on electrifying power tools and standardizing batteries so there is less gas used and e-waste. Let's encourage insulating old buildings. We should reward reduced packaging, more bulk purchase options. Doors should be required on coolers in grocery stores. Require greywater systems in new or renovated buildings. Mandate usage of native plant species for lawns/green areas. limit dilution of water based products.
I was talking about non proprietary boards on the whole, not just the CPU. Also if everything is documented it's not a big deal to customize your bootloader to do all the needed stuff. Of course standards would be very welcome, but at least you wouldn't need some arcane knowledge to get things running
The iPhone SE is a full-sized phone. It just happens to be obsolete in the marketplace, and the other full-sized phones it competes against have become even fuller sized.
It may be, it may not be, depends on some factors.

It's not as simple as "spending money on wasteful things doesn't benefit anyone", but it is always the case that if you would gain even from breaking windows, you would gain even more from spending on something useful.
Just making desktop-class chips is useless without software. Apple can force both sides of that equation, other vendors can't. You can buy laptops with Windows and ARM, but nobody does for good reason.
>> Because in the US we are required to pretend that there is no such thing as race

Then you are not pretending very well. When I lived in the US I was shocked at how often it was an issue. It permeates nearly every aspect of US culture.

The icing on that cake: A government-run interactive map so you can lookup which races live in which neighborhoods. Some versions allow you to zoom in to see little dots representing clusters of black or white residents.

Not really.

Even for hypersonics, the efficiency of chemicals at storing energy and then releasing it is hard to beat. 1 kg of TNT produces 4.2MJ; to get the same energy in 1kg of projectile you’d need to travel at ~6500 miles per hour. (About mach 9 at sea level.)

The role of hypersonics is in application:

- sudden attacks, to prevent response

- low altitude, high velocity attacks, to defeat intercept

- penetration, coupled with a chemical warhead, to hit hardened targets

What benefit does Apple get by “embracing Linux”?

And more “devs” are using Macs than Linux so it must not be too bad. That’s not even to mention that Android developers are saying Macs are fasted for development than x86 PCs and of course iOS developers are using Macs.

What benefit is there in “embracing Linux” for Apple? Better software? Better hardware support? Popularity?

It's not a PC in the very important "just boots Windows and runs my existing software" respect. That is what the overwhelming majority of purchasers in the "desktop PC box" market have as an absolute non-negotiable requirement. If you are not an x86 PC compatible, then you're in the really small niche.

You could in theory, yes, do a PC-mobo form factor SBC. But no PCI, no SATA, no external DRAM: it doesn't look very much like a PC even if you've stuck it in a PC case...

All ballistic missile reentry vehicles are hypersonic too. Talk of "hypersonic" without specifying the technology and actual capabilities is quite silly.

Surprisingly, Bing had repeatedly informed his employer and supervisors about security gaps in the financial system, even sending emails to other administrators to raise his concerns.

Interesting. I figured this would be like rqlite but on top of postgresql instead, but this builds a simple sql layer on top of bbolt.
Yup. I'm a big strong guy, I used to run when I was over 130kgs. It's totally fine, I've never had even a minor injury (cycling is a different matter). If my knees ever give me trouble it's when I haven't been running for a while.

Running is so natural for humans. I used to run "barefoot" (no runners or padded shoes) on rocky roads in the dark. I never got wrongfooted, your body just adjusts. It's amazing how your body can adapt to the environment.
>Alas, the media fell for it and billions are now being spent on “catching up” with our “peer” competitors.

These things are no joke. I felt the same before actually looking into it. China can effectively deny the South China Sea to our carrier fleets with their land based hypersonic weapons. There is absolutely no means of intercepting them with current technology.

What's being proposed here seemed so odd, structurally speaking, that I didn't even consider it analogous to a master agreement + follow-on contract structure. I'm not sure the analogy is totally a fit - a master agreement should itself be a freestanding, valid contract, no? But in this case the 'base' document is incomplete and invalid.

I suppose one could just add the addendum of specific terms at the end of the document and both parties sign off on everything in one go, but I certainly wouldn't want to test it in court.

I'm sure Grant Thornton would be happy to do a full audit of Circle's assets IFF Circle was willing to hand over all of their banking/brokerage statements and allow them to contact those institutions. Verifying the quantity of cash and Treasuries sitting in an account, the length of time they have been there, and the counterparties to their largest transactions is trivial and doesn't compromise any trade secrets which is why it's such a huge red flag for Circle (and Tether) that they refuse to do this while continuing to tease that they will do it at some point in the indeterminate future.
