It clearly isn't impossible for direct democracy to work, but equally there is no guarantee that a measure that gets passed in that way will ever get implemented, or will be implemented in the way intended.

For a start, once the legislation hits reality and needs to be interpreted who decides how it was intended to be implemented? Who chooses which tradeoff should be made when measures conflict with each other? we had problems like this with Brexit in spades. We still have in the from of the relationship between Northern Ireland and the Republic, our leaving the EU free trade zone creates direct conflict with out obligations under the Good Friday agreement. Fortunately we have a government lead by a Brexiteer so I'm sure he'll have all that sorted out in no time.

In 2014 the Swiss passed an initiative to introduce quotas on immigration from the EU, in direct conflict with a treaty between Switzerland and the EU on free movement. It was never implemented.

None of these are the end of the world, but they are problems with the model that need to be taken into account and that direct democracy advocates need to address.

Funnily enough, the cord was the thing that eventually wore out due to normal use and needed to be replaced several times on all of our vacuums growing up. It's trivial to fix, but most don't know how and didn't want to lug a big heavy vacuum to a repair shop and just end up getting a new vacuum. I enjoy not tripping all over a cord or constantly having to tug it out of the way of where I want to vacuum. I enjoy not having to constantly plug/unplug it while moving from room to room when I run out of cord. I enjoy not having to wind the cord up after every use. It's so easy to clean the car and not have to weave the cord everywhere. I enjoy not having wear marks from the cord in the paint of the floor trim, which happens a lot in doorways as they protrude inward from the wall, or any time you go around a corner and pull the cord.

Ubuntu Black Screen
Greetings,

When I am booting my device, I end up with a black screen.

I can still access some files when I hit ctrl + F1 and I access a kind of terminal…

Is there a way where I can just reinstall Ubuntu from scratches, given that I cannot boot thru USB either on this device…?
Meet people on social media and once you like them, meet them in the real world. It worked well for me. Social media allowed me to cast a larger net and be more efficient at filtering people I liked from people I didn't like as much.
I can imagine it being used as a walkie-talkie replacement.
Not Concise, but CBOR does have a proposal for such data [1]. This is implemented via CBOR's tagging system where you can attach a tag to otherwise mundane data to hint otherwise, which is in my opinion one of the biggest idea behind CBOR and why CBOR is not really a ripoff of MessagePack.

Channels that get big for the sake of having amazing quality tend to pick up production quality at some point, probably by hiring people. So if you're watching older/larger channels, the correlation won't be as obvious. On the other hand, we can time warp! This is the oldest video on YouTube from Veritasium: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cU2dZz18P0c

Maybe we're seeing different sides of the language then. I'm doing a lot of integer-list sorting, building a search engine in java. I'm evenly split between Arrays.sort or GNU Trove's specialized primitive collections.

The overhead of List<Integer> really can not be overstated, it can approach order 1000% memory consumption, speed is prima facie about half for dealing with collections, but in practice it can be much lower from the GC churn. Even for lists as small as a million entries this can be quite untenable.

It's a shame that page doesn't address the benefits you mention here eloquently. It basically just says we don't track you, and implies that is good. I do think it is good but it's losing the value prop for most people.

That's empirically not true. The dynamic language (implementation) that is closest to static typing performance is probably Javascript, and it achieves this using an absurd amount of work to infer static types and to jit the code.

If instead you make the reasonable assumption that dynamic typing => pointer indirection, and look at how memory works in modern machines, it's also theoretically untrue for a huge number of programs.
I did have a Das Keyboard 4 Ultimate fail on me after 6 years (the switches in the F and G key started to not always register).

"Do the Next Right Thing" is what I try to do.
Morrowind has a some interesting lore but is the textbook definition of a 'fetch quest' game. I'm not sure I can even remember the plot of any of the missions. Their modern games, while often hackneyed in the writing dept are at least diverting to your attention. "Wouldn't it be cool if a mage dropped from the sky" is probably the high bar of Morrowind narrative chops.

Bethesda is culturally a "level design developer" imo. Kind of like Valve in that regard. They have a technical idea of what they want the player to experience, not a strong narrative one. New Vegas is so interesting because Obsidian clearly do not have the same culture, it was ALL traditional RPG storytelling (and some okayish levels) in the same Bethesda framework.
When I saw this title, I instantly found myself thinking "could I encode my backups in random videos, with parity bits, and treat them as long term storage?"

In the fine print, that page notes that international data is limited to 128kbps (or 256kbps if you're on the top-tier 'MAX' plan).

Phones that are designed for (or sold through) T-Mobile US won't necessarily work on T-Mobile NL, because they operate on different frequency bands, take advantage of different CA combos (combining different frequency bands for better coverage/speed), etc. The phone would likely also be locked to T-Mobile US for a period of time after purchase.
Unpopular opinion, but it looks like Dyson is trying to be as safe as possible (mitigating any chances of fire) by disabling the pack. Unbalanced packs can result in overcharging.

You're in luck, friend. G815. Exactly the same keyboard, but wired. Unfortunately, I can't seem to find pictures of it with this exact layout (seems to have the 105-key layout).

That having been said, more good news. My model came with the same pictures, but it was the 104-key layout, so it might vary by region, I guess. Look around and see what you can find at your local retailers.

Even more good news, even if you can't find the G815, the G915 DOES work by wire, if you really want to. You can hook it up via micro USB. Even comes with a cable.

Also, might I suggest you at least try a wireless keyboard. OK, so you don't move it. Valid argument. Neither do I, but the lack of one MORE cable on my desk, plus the ability to just yank it off the desk for cleaning, with having to unplug it, well worth it.

What factually incorrect information was posted? Maybe I missed it.

Yegg said "they all rely _somewhat_ on either Google's or Bing's web crawling" and you confirmed it by saying "Brave search uses Bing API and Google fallback for about 8%". So... which part is factually incorrect?

I’d prefer to live in a modern society where we get to share the immense wealth of our nation in a way that promotes the general welfare.

I’ve run into so many people in my time who’ve had to suffer in various ways because of senseless circumstances. One person lost their home due to a medical condition and the associated costs. Had it happened 6 months before his employee health plan changed, his family’s life would have taken a dramatically different path.
Holy shit, stop calling everything anyone in this thread says "misleading". Your answers are so off-putting. GP didn't say

> [your] results just come from Bing

You're the one being misleading here by suggesting that they did say that. Nobody is interpreting what they said as "All search results from DDG are just straight from bing". You're nitpicking words in almost every one of your responses.
Yes, all the time. Before going to a place to see parking, how it looks, etc
the post goes in detail.

Essentially, imagine you have custom routines for your ints and floats and your language doesn't support generics. You'll have a code like this

if type is INT:
answer = optimizedRoutineForInt();
else type is FLOAT:
answer = optimizedRoutineForFloat();

This happens at run-time. There's an overhead.

With generics, there's zero overhead. Your code will look something like

answer = optimizedRoutine<Type>();

and if optimizedRoutine<Float> can be inlined at this site, there are no conditions or jumps in the code.

The post goes in detail about how for sorting, this sort of comparison function is called so frequently it has a massive impact on performance

Boston itself was great, but Diamond City seemed undeserving of the name to me. It's just a handful of people. Also the setting of known size, the baseball diamond, throws off my suspension of disbelief that maybe distances and population sizes in Bethesda games are simply compressed. Cities like Whiterun and Balmora are the size of a small villages but are presented as a cities; I can accept that as some sort of distance compression. I can't do that with Diamond City because I know how big a baseball field is. That 'city' must really be 1:1 scale, or at least close to it.

Basically if I can't get lost, it doesn't feel like a city. I can get lost in Boston or Vivec, those feel like cities. The others require a lot of suspension of disbelief, but Diamond City particularly makes that hard.

I concede that Vivec is dated (although I first played Morrowind about 2 or 3 years ago and still enjoyed it.) I consider Witcher 3's Novigrad as an example of a modern game getting it right. There's not exactly a ton of named NPCs in Novigrad, but there are enough buildings, alleyways, etc to get lost when wandering around. Also there is redundancy in the town's economy; numerous smiths, taverns, etc.
I'm safe as well, because I only use the web version of Zoom. Code you don't trust should always run in a sandbox, if it runs at all.

For abstract algebra, I'd go with Pinter's "A Book of Abstract Algebra" (ABoAA) [1].

The other recommendations given so far for abstract algebra are fine, but Pinter's organization makes it I think work better for self-study, and it is much more friendly on the wallet because it is a Dover edition. It's currently $14.89 on Amazon ($6.49 eBook).

ABoAA tends to divide the material into short chapters with lots of exercises. A typical chapter is around 5 pages of text and 5 pages of exercises. The ratio of text to exercises varies a bit but mostly will be in the 40-60% range for the text. Chapters are mostly around 10 pages +/- 3.

The exercises for each chapter are split into several sections each section covering a different aspect of the chapter's material. Sometimes there is a section of exercises applying the material to some interesting area. For example, the chapter on groups of permutations has 6 pages of text, then 5 pages of exercises divided into N sections.

The exercise sections for that chapter are computing elements in S6 (5 problems), examples of groups of permutations (4 problems), groups of permutations in R (4 problems), a cyclic group of permutations (4 problems), a subgroup of SR (4 problems), symmetries of geometric figures (4 problems), symmetries of polynomials (4 problems), properties of permutations of a set A (4 problems), and algebra of kinship structures which consists of 9 problems covering how anthropologists have applied groups of permutations to describe kinship systems in primitive societies.

This combination of small chapters with lots of exercises organized in small groups of related exercises makes it a lot easier to fit this book into a self-study plan if you are like the typical self-study student who has other things (like work) taking up much of their time and so can't get in many long study sessions.

"Popular", because of legacy systems or knowledge, not popular because they are the most reasonable choice these days...

And then, following this train of thought, how many legacy systems do you think are being re-implemented in a serverless function environment?

How many completely new systems are being implemented in .NET or Java in a serverless function environment?

This is my move too and I believe it's a large part of why Google isn't as good as it used to be.

At one time your or my question would have been indexed into a search engine. Now it's mostly blogspam.

Of course slack and discords incentives aren't nessecarily aligned to want to do that either.

Aye. Policy should be based on data. In that world, lived experience has a proper word to describe it: anecdotes. The reason there's an attempt to change the language around anecdotes is that "lived experience" is intended to be beyond argument as evidence.

Your linked source is specific to Europe which tends to have much stronger regulations on pesticides. While the parent didn't state it explicitly I believe their statement was about the US since - yea, in America the organic label doesn't change the volume of pesticides you can use but rules out some of them.

The best tactic you can follow in the US is to try and buy imported produce from countries with stricter pesticide laws.

pretty well put.

it is an optimization problem, and the optimum isn't at the extremum of the constraints, it is somewhere in the middle.

just because C++ is a bit of a mess after 37 years of evolution doesn't mean that the simplest language is best.

rust is also the first widely used language with a borrow checker and may suffer from having to discover the correct primitives while hunting around in the dark to begin with.
Caveat: I broke the keycap on my = key within 6 months (my fault, it caught on my laptop when packing in a bag), and there's no market for single/small quantity keycap replacements (even blank) unlike keyboards using more standard Cherry switches so I'm just using the exposed switch.

> It will feel awkward, or stylistically wrong.

No it won't, because it's understood to be poetic.

In English, it's a awkward if an adjective is put after a noun right? But you don't bat an eyelash if it's in a poem.

"High upon the chimney stack, there I saw perched three crows black."

(Don't search for that, I just made it up.)

Moreover, in languages with case, reordering doesn't cause any ambiguities or confusion. You know which word is the subject and which the object in any permutation. (Not necessarily for all words, but most.) The speakers already enjoy considerable reordering freedom in everyday sentences already (non-poetic) where it plays roles in emphasis and such.
I know the #1 reason I buy a phone is to get updates for it. The rest is window dressing.
Amazon does provide some support for FreeBSD -- they paid for the ENA driver to be ported and maintained, for example. And they include FreeBSD in their CI system; if a change to EC2 infrastructure would make FreeBSD stop booting, they'll notice and fix it long before it gets deployed. They've also been very generous with AWS resources, both letting me spin up lots of instances and hosting mirrors on an ongoing basis.

I continue to hope that some day they'll invent some sort of "part-time contractor" position to provide me with ongoing funding for FreeBSD/EC2 work, but I certainly understand the argument that they should pay for EC2 specific work (like ENA) but not for FreeBSD development.
I'm also rocking an XP3 Plus! I bought it around September because I was looking to curb my screen time. I ruled out the S22 for similar reasons.

I find that in rare cases I need to bring my old smart phone with me (traveling, mainly) for things like airline tickets, movies on planes, maps in new areas.

Otherwise day-to-day I am exclusively using the XP3. My screen time is now at an average of <10 min per day, and my battery life is between 5-6 days on average.

Super happy with the experience, and I bought back so much more time and sanity by not staring at my phone for hours per day.
The idea of p8g is to have a shared core with multiple language bindings.
