yt-dlp [1] has command-line options to download only the captions of a video, in available languages, if you want to skip the scraping for the link.

I built something similar [2] for a slightly different use case. I wanted to be able to search through all Ram Dass talks in the 'Here and Now' podcast series on YT. I'm obviously not as skilled at CSS. :) And the display of timestamps is still a bit shaky, but for me it fulfills its purpose.

Since I'm able to preload all caption files ahead of time, I'm just using pcregrep for the search which does a pretty good job.

"All" is a vague term.

So jail everyone at Twitter who isn't an individual contributor and is even tangentially involved?

This is how you escape consequences as an organization: obfuscation. Make what you've done complex enough that it's too difficult for a jury to decide who is responsible for what, prosecutors won't be convinced they have a case and will decline to pursue the matter.
Its true.

Texas had a plan in to spruce up school safety, they just didn't go forward with it, its pretty sad. I read through it, it looked like it would be very effective.

Luckily first responders neutralized the shooter otherwise more kids would've died.

Yes, you can. Hydrogen, for the same temperature, has a far higher speed of sound (which is close to the average speed of the gas molecules) than air or water vapor. This is why your voice is higher pitched when you breathe in helium (also a light gas like hydrogen).

Basic kinetic gas theory stuff.

I don't think it has to be that hard; you just need to require that communication is preserved for companies over a certain size, e.g. meeting minutes, emails, etc. This is already the case for financial records and some employment records, and the case with politics ("but her emails!")

This way, a record can be subpoenaed if needed.

Don't keep records or don't have records of this particular decision? The person responsible for making sure the records are kept for that department will be in trouble.

There is some administrative "red tape" here, but it's not that bad, and much of these records already exist (or existed).

The problem is the political will to enact such a law; I agree that's not likely to happen.
Again the article is saying that bad health and not going outside causes low vitamin D and that adding vitamin D through supplementation doesn't really help. What helps is going out into the sun, according to the article - and in particular, doing so regularly, and without sunblock. In part so you can synthesize your own, but also because it yields nitric oxide which dilates blood vessels and lowers blood pressure.

The article says vitamin D supplements are useless as evidenced by numerous studies.

> ... vitamin D supplementation has failed spectacularly in clinical trials. Five years ago, researchers were already warning that it showed zero benefit, and the evidence has only grown stronger. In November, one of the largest and most rigorous trials of the vitamin ever conducted—in which 25,871 participants received high doses for five years—found no impact on cancer, heart disease, or stroke.

That sounds kinda like the Mafia or Yakuza. Take the fall, do time, protect the organization, get respect, get promoted. Many people would gladly do a few years in minimum security prison in exchange for million dollar salaries, etc.

While I do think that would be better than nothing, it could create its own set of bad incentives.
That's why you investigate. But awareness should be enough. And if we start to have trouble proving awareness (maybe employees aren't aware of a settlement), just require in settlements that employees are informed.

For felony murder, you don't have to know that the person you're with is armed, intends to kill, or if you're driving the getaway car you don't even have to know that they have killed anyone at all. You're participating in something that you're expected to know is wrong, and you're punished for anything that results from the entire event. If this were like felony murder, the engineers that implemented it (assuming awareness) would be as liable for the $150 million as anyone else involved.

One of the things that I would consider before joining any startups is just how good sane (or humane or whatever appropriate word) the founders are. Don't go behind all the PRs. Just try to find whether the people who founded are actually good people. What are their ethics. All these are subjective qualities so it's difficult to weigh but that's where the money is.

I beg to differ, World of Warcraft is some of the most fun I've ever had in my life. It was destroyed when they changed the game to have multi-server raids etc. that ended the social aspect of "your server is your world." No longer did you have to make friends and have a life on your server that was as addicting as real life. You just had to queue up and let the computer match you up with people. And then the magic was gone.

I remember, I do have a recent one. An application/service was ported from PostgreSQL to MySQL but there was a particular set of queries that used to run in a 5-10 minutes that wouldn't finish in 6h+. It was due for release so had a set Friday deadline giving us almost a week. The queries were large and complicated having been evolved over the course of app development specific to PostgreSQL. Also complicated by the queries being dynamically built at runtime with various in/out optional parts. If you look at the main slow core, and by comparing query plans on pg vs mysql, we could see that pg did more 'query plan normalization' (or rewriting in a way). After that we rewrote bits and bits of the query adding indexes, and partial subqueries for reuse, de-correlating subqueries, moving functions from SQL to code before/after query, force index hints, etc. By Friday we got it down to under a minute. One tip was recognizing that one of the columns in the tables was a tenant key so its cardinality was useless if already using a higher cardinality index. DBs should really have a representation for this. Writing SQL for MySQL is like writing C vs writing Prolog for PostgreSQL.

Another old one was getting a large OS/2 program to run in DOS 640 KB with overlay segments that swapped out. The trick being that you want to minimize transitions between overlay segments. Parsed a call tree of the entire program and assigned overlay numbers based on some large chunks of subtrees with the most common leaf calls being in segment 99 that always lived within the 640KB. It ran fast enough and shipped without revising the shrink wrap dates.

I also wonder what interesting things would happen if in order to own a gun you must drill with a militia.
If someone knew where they were (with any decent certainty), they wouldn't be lost.
There is already a federal background check process on every purchase from a store or gun dealer; both the Texas and Buffalo shooters passed their background check. To stop these guys you have to get working process to get them into the "can't purchase" list.

It is true. Basic gas theory stuff, the average molecular speed (close to the speed of sound) at a given gas temperature is, to first order, higher for a lower molecular mass. Otherwise, why bother with such a difficult to store propellant which you’re not even extracting energy from (as the energy comes from the reactor, not the propellant as in chemical rockets)?

Chemical rockets reach over 3500 Kelvin, but Nerva only got to around 2300 Kelvin.

Australia has had three mass shootings since 1996.

The USA has had 52 mass shootings in April of 2021 alone.

If it's such a "complicated issue", why did the frequency of mass shootings in Australia drop to negligible levels after they took the simple step of enacting a comprehensive gun ban?

Ban. The. Guns. It's that simple.

There's plenty of "intellectually stimulating" conversation about this and has been for decades. For the most part we value civility and compromise so highly that we'll accept the routine murder of children rather than pay the price of pissing a bunch of people off with gun reform.

The conversations aren't the problem, the guns are. There's not really a path to compromise here, I don't think. Either we stop having guns like we do now and a lot of people will be vocally upset, or we continue allowing the routine murder of children. Talk about it as carefully as you want, either way there's going to be conflict.
Felt the same way about COVID and war. If cameras were allowed into ICUs, and into war-torn areas, and not just the carefully choreographed media tours the military sometimes allows these days, things would change.
I wish it were possible to use git with government policy. I want to diff the gun laws and health service offerings between a countries a with low gun violence and the usa to look for commonality.

This is an American problem and I find it strange how closed off many Americans are to adopting “best practices” from other countries who have this issue solved.

> It is a multi-faceted problem with a lot of complexity

It really is not.

There are too many guns available, too easily obtained, to too many citizens who have not been properly indoctrinated with a sense of civic responsibility, let alone trained in the proper ways to handle a gun.

The answer isn't to throw more guns at the problem or to blame inadequate mental health facilities. It is to reduce gun availability. And we aren't willing to do that because politicians on the right find it more valuable to demagogue on the subject as a wedge issue.
Regardless of how bad it is, it's a step up from touchscreen interfaces, which means it actually is acceptable by modern vehicle standards.

A real time strategy game like Wargame or WARNO[1] but using REAL 3D map data from Apple/Google maps. So you could have a massive scale ground and air war using real map data in say, the south bay area. You could garrison an infantry unit in you house or call in an air strike on your office building.

Mostly because I wanted to give Flutter a shot. The instant hot reload really got me hooked. As I also said elsewhere, I was already super familiar with Dart given that I worked on Google Ads (where the front-end is built using Dart).

I'll try to share some data on the Android version compared to iOS. My gut feeling is that the rate of purchase for IAP is going to be much lower, but I think it could help with getting the app known (thus leading to more iOS downloads as well).
There was a mass stabbing in Norway last week, so thats pretty accurate.

Waiting periods are never effective for anything aside from suicide, and they may technically be unconstitutional, that is being fought in the courts right now.

NICS checks are really only effective in dealing with criminal behavior. In this case we're talking about a psychopath who had been manifesting outwardly for a while. For the most part you can't legally background check someone's mental health. What would've worked in this case is "social surveillance" and having the people he interacted with every day report him.

Meh, that's why the CEO makes the big monies. "The buck stops here" kind of thing. Charge the CEO. Make it the CEO's problem to prove they were not responsible only by giving up the person that was. I do believe sometimes CEOs are not fully aware of what happens below them in the org tree, but they are accountable for their people. If the CEO can't handle that, then they shouldn't be accepting the roles. Clearly, this has to be understood as part of the job description

All the details aren't in, but this case apparently involved a police chase that led to the school, a school resource officer was present and wasn't able to stop the shooter from entering the school (nor were the pursuing police officers).

The first responders called for help, and a Border Patrol agent came to the scene, ran in alone and killed the shooter.
That's not how it works – he has to go through with the deal unless one of the possible reasons he may back out for (and pay the US$1 billion) comes into being.

That's got nothing to do with felony murder. Felony murder occurs when you participate in a crime with someone else and they accidentally kill someone while you can't see them.
"You have to keep a record of what happened during all employee interactions so that we can prosecute you some day" isn't exactly a likely-to-succeed plan. Already prevalent are coaching employees not to leave records of certain legally contentious topics.
No, I'm saying their cultures do not tolerate abberation and violence.
"Background check" is vague and unhelpful.

The question is "what should be on the background check". Spousal abuse seems like an easy one, since that is a crime and seems to correlate to these attackers. Adding it to the process seems easy enough, as long as we get enough people to agree it should be a background check option.

Racism unfortunately has free-speech / 1st amendment right issues. It'd be a harder discussion point in general. But there needs to be a discussion about the rise in hate-speech and racism, especially since a lot of these mass-shootings are racially motivated.
