People don't want to understand. Earnestly listening means you might change your mind. There is nothing to be gained "strategically" by listening. Claiming to want open discourse and free discussion is a tactic promoted by those who would lose any popular poll or vote. Further, most people don't hold their opinions because they've thought things through. They are told "good people believe A," and they want to be seen as (and think of them self as) a good person, so they espouse A.

It's one thing to wish people were more rational and less tribal. But to really not understand human nature after the last decade? The author is either naive beyond absurdity or feigning ignorance as a different form of virtue signaling.
You don't seem to understand the history of the time. There are two names on the report. There was very little, if any, political support at that time for giving her "extra" credit. The more likely scenario is that she should have been first author. That sort of thing happened a lot.

I am totally on board with there being a right to privacy, I was only responding to the facts within the thread.

It’s a very straightforward jump from the text of the fourth amendment to a right to privacy, but at the end of the day, the amendment itself does not actually say there is a right to privacy.

In my experience, the reason people get mad when questioned like that isn't because they're unable to justify it. It's usually because you're insensitively pestering them to describe their opinions in careful detail when that's not a conversation they're interested in having at that time.

Kind of like how when someone's complaining to you about a problem and they get angry when you keep pestering them with solutions, because they aren't looking for a solution and just want someone to vent to.

> One of the central points of a Constitution is to mark certain things off-limits to democracy.

This only applied to federal portion of "democracy" until the 14th amendment which added restricting the states re Bill of Rights. 14th wasn't adopted until 1868. I don't think it's that central.

> The Due Process Clause prohibits state and local governments from depriving persons of life, liberty, or property without a fair procedure. The Supreme Court has ruled this clause makes most of the Bill of Rights as applicable to the states as it is to the federal government, as well as to recognize substantive and procedural requirements that state laws must satisfy. -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourteenth_Amendment_to_the_Un...

The Constitution is primarily about limiting the powers of the Federal government vis a vis State government, and then both vs people. As outlined by the 10th amendment.

> The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States respectively, or to the people.

The government can't pass laws against "Turtles Suck!" because that power is not granted them. It is reserved to The People. This is why "people" like youtube and twitter and cancel culture are free to censor and ban.
No general rule for me, just combination of needs and interests, if I like something, I have time, I dig, if I need something I dig, if at a certain point my will start waning or my needs have reached a certain satisfactory point I stop.

As a general rule: there is no too much knowledge. The trick is just avoid dispersion, concentrating on something leaving something else aside. And there is no magic formula IME for that...

I believe that that’s an inaccurate and uncharitable characterization of the comment you’re responding to.

If the linked article contained anything other than a brief offhand remark by Lagarde (as quoted by the OP), it would be reasonable to address her argument in greater depth.

As it is, the sole reason this is even being discussed is due to the authority she wields. It is therefore reasonable to address that authority instead.

The OP posits that a person whose authority is potentially threatened by a technology might not necessarily be an impartial judge of said technology. You might agree or disagree, but you’re not really responding to the argument. And you’re the only one bringing up conspiracy theories.

Privacy is about maintaining an inviolable personal space, and the fourth amendment is very explicitly about limiting state violation of the individual person, their property, papers, or effects.

Papers in particular is important because it is quite literally in reference to information. To this day information has to be acquired legally in order for it to be admissable in court.
Their reasoning in Roe is pretty detailed and they do not come anywhere close to saying that the right to privacy legalizes everything done in private. Have you read Roe v Wade?

Let's look at fraud. Who do you think is arguing that fraud is illegal if done in private. Can you link me to any example anywhere on any medium?

Which part of the article do you think is relevant here? I have read many books by actual constitutional law scholars on these cases. I don't understand what you think I'm supposed to see in a 1,000 word blog post by a random non lawyer that doesn't know anything in particular about constitutional law.

>I assumed from your confident tone, and insistence that the parent comment was a strawman, that you would be able to shed more light on this topic.

I'm not just insisting it's a strawman. It is a straw man. Can you link me to any argument made by anyone ever on any medium that is even remotely close to what he is saying? (that everything done in private, say, fraud, murder, arson, etc.) should be legal?
We've established a rule that all "custom" code (anything that isn't a preexisting operator in airflow) needs to be contained in a docker image and run through the k8s pod operator. What's resulted is most folks do exactly what you said. They create a repo with a simple CLI that runs a script and the only thing that gets put in our airflow repo is the dependency graph/configuration for the k8s jobs.

This totally works as an approach! Brave does it for canvas data and a bunch of other web APIs as well. The "farbling" noise is deterministic per profile/origin combo to prevent being able to average it out across multiple page loads, but otherwise random.

That was one the reasons we do "bring your own compute" with https://iko.ai so people who already have a billing account on AWS, GCP, Azure, DigitalOcean, can just get the config for their Kubernetes clusters and link them to iko.ai and their machine learning workloads will run on whichever cluster they select.

If you get a good deal from one cloud provider, you can get started quickly.

It's useful even for individuals such as students who get free credits from these providers: create a cluster and you're up and running in no time.

Our rationale was that we didn't wanted to be tied to one cloud provider.

While some more traditional Jews dislike legal abortion for cases that don't relate to health/mental health and are after 40 days Jewish law is pretty clear that a fetus is not alive/a person with rights until it born and that abortion is not murder.
Dividing fatalities by population might be reasonable to look at acceptable death levels; in NL in 2020, that's 229 / 17,440,000 or 1.3 per 100,000. Automotive numbers would be pretty similar.

(Correction: They would not. There were ~610 auto deaths in NL in 2020. That gives 3.5 per 100,000.)

In the US, 2020 had 11.7 automotive deaths per 100,000 people and 0.38 bicycle deaths per 100,000.

I know this seems like ‘If all else fails ‘hit with lunar boot’, but hit the back of your head pretty hard.

It’s a weird motion so practice with you hand in front of you.

- Hold your right hand in front of you.

- Cross your index finger over your middle finger

- Press your index finger and your middle finger together pretty hard

- Let your index finger slip off the middle finger
(You will notice the index finger has quite a bit of power)

- Now place the palms of your hands over their respective ears, covering them completely. Pointing your finger back around your head.

- Repeat the index/middle finger motion above but let the index finger smack the back of your skull
(It should sound like a very loud thump)

- Repeat this 40-50 times
(Your fingers will likely get tired)

- Remove your hands from your ears and hopefully you will have some relief from the tinnitus
(The effectiveness and duration seems to be highly variable from person to person and type of tinnitus)

Good Luck

No, there's no magic bullets waiting to be unveiled for the infantry or Marines. Stinger is old, in some ways out of date, and a planned replacement was never given enough funding to proceed. Javelin? It's fine for the foreseeable future, until top-attack defenses get good enough to reduce its effectiveness. Things like Trophy APS might be the solution, but those aren't cheap.

Eventually, the AGM-179 will replace the TOW/Hellfire/Maverick missiles, but this isn't really something soldiers will be humping around on raids like in Ukraine. These are heavy missiles (not counting their launch hardware), that require vehicles or aircraft to employ.

I think that oversells it. The current interpretation of the commerce clause is not particularly controversial in contemporary American politics (both dominant political parties are "big Federal government" parties; they just disagree on how to apply the USG's heft.)

> Abortion tends to be single state centric, meaning the person getting the abortion and the abortion clinic are in the same state. Because of this, the federal government couldn't pass a law that only affects intrastate commerce.

It's not this straightforward. One of the initial challenges to the 1964 CRA was that intrastate racial discrimination fell outside of the purview of the Federal government; SCOTUS has consistently determined that state acts may not restrict rights where interstate activity is likely (e.g. motor lodges, economic activities near state borders, etc.).

On net, I think the 9th Amendment provides perfectly sufficient cover for a right to abortion, and that it would be reasonable to interpret the nonenumeration clause in a similar manner to the commerce clause (i.e., permitting federal law where required to protect rights that individual states might wish to infringe). But that's a parallel justification.
Usually I'll learn until I've figured out the reason I started down that path in the first place. And then move on to the next shiny object until something breaks, then learn what I did wrong, fix, and repeat.
You’ve got some strong self rationalization going.

No one has forced you to do anything. There are plenty of people who aren’t extreme, in fact, most people don’t take extreme positions on abortion.
> Hard lines being drawn, people unwilling to even talk with others based on ideological labels, economic sanctions against ‘offenders’, propaganda clearly targeted at specific identifiable groups used to raise funds and attack the ‘other’ side, fear and loathing/us vs them.

You're describing today's conservatives. Liberals seem to be always willing to entertain the discussion of basically anything. It's sort of a core tenet of liberalism... Open discussion and debate.

Where liberals shut discussions down is when they ask for evidence or at least sound reasoning and aren't presented with anything. That's the logical point where you can't really discuss something anymore.

I've seen conservatives get extremely frustrated that liberals won't entertain their religious myths or traditions as justification for any given policy. "They just don't listen!" No, the conservative just revealed that the entire basis for whatever they believe in isn't founded in reality. No amount of arguing is going to sway them so there's no point in discussing it anymore... "Agree to disagree" is about as far as you can go.
> they're getting wrecked because they're inept.

They're "getting wrecked" in terms of human and materiel losses, even though those seem to have stabilised compared to March/April, the reality on the ground is that the Russians have managed to acquire a land-bridge to Crimea and that they've mostly conquered the two regions of Lugansk and Donetsk.

I think you do need driver or video card name if you need to make it work (or have a usable performance) in every vendor.

Video cards behaves wildly different between vendors. Some shader runs smoothly in one vendor while lag like hell in another. And some don't even run correctly under certain vendor. Without knowing the vendor, it is not possible to patch them up to get a usable program.

They share the same API doesn't mean they behave identical.

Weaponised hawks have many interesting properties. They don't emit radio waves, and not much infrared either, so are hard to locate and shoot down.

Yeah, the thing is, as someone in the same position as the OP, I feel stupid for always sticking around.

Pamela already addressed the inflexibility part. And I'll just echo that I find it worse than how she described. But I've probably over-committed myself, too. Engaging in research-like stuff is very fun, but it is often unpaid for someone who is a lecturer.

As for job security: Non-Tenured folks (like the OP) get relatively short term contracts. And it's easy for the University to not renew them, especially when there are budget constraints. Sure, I never had a contract like this as SWE and I could have been fired before my 1-2 years were up, but my job there felt much more secure. I knew my manager and how the company was doing.
In contrast, while I'm friends with everyone - I don't yet have security that I'll be returning in the Fall, even though my name is on the schedule.
> our particular system of government is a bit shit, and keeps getting worse the better everyone gets at gaming it.

I agree that a "Union of States," being profoundly anti-federalist, is a pretty shit way of running a homogeneous world power with a shared language, shared culture, and (for the most part) shared ideals.

The US fundamentally changed after the Civil War (which was probably the breaking point of anti-federalism) but unfortunately the Constitution didn't change along with it.

> Am I nuts for thinking along these lines?

Probably. Unless some "gay gene" was identified and this virus was targeting carriers very specifically, any weapon like this is completely indiscriminate. Even if they somehow deliberately infected them, it would not be contained in the community for long.

> Feels like the gay community have been the most affected, which seems odd to me.

It can be sexually transmitted (among other vectors). Homosexual behavior is not the issue. Unprotected sex is (much higher chance if it's anal, as in most sexually transmitted diseases). And, it seems, any sort of close contact is sufficient. It's understandable that the gay community would be the canary for this issue. There's also some percentage of the population that will engage in unprotected sex regardless of orientation.

Anyone else noticing that a whole lot of lifestyle recommendations are slowly moving back toward "just do whatever they did like 2500 years ago"?
True - and it's complicated by the popularity of pointing to other people's rationality and claiming it as your own in an attack on or exaggeration of the opinions and behaviors of others. Look at all the people in the comments who ostensibly want this, and yet are behaving exactly like all the people supposedly being contrasted with the example in the video. It's not "rationality is missing from politics" to most people, it's "rationality is missing from my political enemies".
> you can use a "folder structure" of tags. You can name tags things like subcomponent/v1.0.2. […] Doing that can confuse git describe

Using the --match option, `git describe --match='subcomponent/*'` fixes this problem. It filters the tags that are considered to only those matching the pattern, so that a later tag for another subcomponent will not be used.
I still read TAOCP, particularly vol 4, for fun from time to time, but I have to admit that the days are long gone when an ordinary engineer needs to study algorithms in depth. The vast number of libraries and services are good enough that most people just need to know a few terms to function adequately for their jobs. I guess it's a good thing as it shows how robust the software abstractions are, in contrast to mathematics. It's just that I feel quite nostalgic about the countless days I spent understanding, proving, and implementing fundamental algorithms and data structures.
