> I don't understand why this broken model of crowdsourcing ratings is being applied over and over again to different aspects of society. It's as if the managers and MBAs of the world have given up even trying to manage people and want to outsource the task to a howling mob of strangers.

I think it's a manifestation of McNamara's Fallacy. Soliciting ratings is just one method of quantifying things, putting problems in terms of numbers so we can do math with those numbers and generally feel like we're being objective and scientific about the matter. It liberates people from having to get into the weeds of making subjective qualitative judgements.

There are obvious problems with it; McNamara's fallacy was being willfully blind to qualitative considerations which turned out to be very important to the war. Furthermore, by picking and choosing what you want to measure, and which metrics to value or ignore, you often end up with a process that although ostensibly objective, is effectively subjective.

An alternative to randomness is handicap. For example, Go game has ranks and based on them either you or your opponent get a handicap. Equal ranked players don't use handicap. It is counted that a stone of handicap is worth ~6.5 points, and that is what's used in handicap - one player gets additional stones placed at the beginning of a match. The system is aiming to provide you with 50% win/lose percentage, and every match to feel equal.
> Are you saying it feels like a recession or that we have already had two quarters of declining GDP?

US GDP dropped 1.4% in the first quarter, so it's entirely possible that a recession has already started. If GDP declines again in the next quarter, then at that point it will (retroactively) be confirmed that there is presently a recession.
> you wanted to be the guy with the power- There is possibly a reason for that.

Sure, but there's nothing that suggests the underlying motivation would be negative. For example, a lot of people cite a desire to protect and serve their communities. Just because there is a motive for something doesn't imply that it's ulterior or nefarious.

How do you think translations work, exactly?
Originally HTML just had the <isindex> element, which was very similar to Gopher's primitive "search" functionality. Adding the <form> element with named input fields was a pretty obvious next step, and the fact that HTTP/HTML evolved to support it while Gopher did not says quite a bit about the culture behind these two protocols.
I've always wanted something like license points for law enforcement officers. Every time they have a valid complaint/incident, the LEO looses a point of their national LEO "licence". Pair that with their dept. liability insurance bond, and once they drop below some threshold their insurance cost goes up or has to be self-funded. If it drops below another threshold they're uninsurable by any department and/or loose their national level credentials.

If this licensing entity is external to the force it would hopefully be more likely to remain unbiased, and this kind of national level of oversight would prevent bad apples from just moving to some other area to dodge a bad reputation/incident.
PBS SpaceTime: What If Physics Is Not Describing Reality?
AirTags seem to be built around the idea that people are generally good. So either you misplaced something and need to find it, or someone finds your thing and wants to get it back to you.

Much like razor blades in Halloween candy or quicksand, I think the media makes abductions seem much more common than they actually are.

That being said, an AirTag in the backpack might not be a bad idea. Kids forget stuff. When the backpack comes up missing, it would be nice to have a way to track it down. And in the event the kid is just lost, it would still be useful. On the off chance there was an abduction (although I don't think you should worry about it), the notification might be enough to scare them into dumping the kid off somewhere instead of hunting for the tracking device.
That's good insight. Makes sense then why you so often see musicians playing dedicated hardware.
And also if you stop using it you need to [buy an apple product/root your phone(and then your bank apps don't work)/stop using phones altogether(which doesn't go well pretty much anywhere[•])]. So there's really only the option to give up your privacy to either google or apple.

From your Wikipedia link:

> Water use in California is divided into approximately 51% for environmental uses, 39% agricultural use and 11% urban uses, though that varies considerably between regions and between wet and dry years. Solely relying on these statewide volumes is controversial because they don't consider the fact that most of the volume of water used for environmental purposes includes flows down Wild and Scenic Rivers in the North Coast where there is no practical way to recover it for either agricultural or urban use because it lacks many connections to the statewide water supply system. It also doesn't factor in the amount of water required to keep salty water from the Pacific Ocean from intruding into the Delta beyond a certain small concentration.

If we set aside the 51% of California's water that isn't actually used by people, that 39% of total water becomes 79.6% of water used. So, yeah, 80% of usage.

Not sure how a net worth number shows financial savvy in the first place. There might be correlation, but there are always cases of people winning the lottery, making it big on bitcoin or Gamestop or other idiosyncratic bets - or, as you said, buying a house and watching it appreciate.

I think it's more about the capacity to absorb losses without having the government be on the hook for bailing you out.

Houses also are not as illiquid as most people claim, because things like HELOCs and reverse mortgages do exist, and ultimately you could sell the house (although that takes the most time of the three options).

The other thing about liquidity is that we would count private investments in net worth, which could be quite illiquid. Or things like expensive stamps or trading cards (with the same liquidity issues). It's only the primary residence that we make an exception for. We could make another category for "liquid" net worth, and I might buy that argument, with the caveat about house liquidity options that I outlined above.

well, fines are (indirectly) meant to prevent collisions and conflict, not just injuries and fatalities, premised on the notion that traffic laws represent the best way to do so (not always true).

that's mostly unrelated to multi-modal infrastructure, which i'm an ardent proponent of. if i had a magic wand, i'd turn all the street parking in LA into protected bike/scooter lanes, narrow all non-bus lanes to 8 feet, plant street trees everywhere possible, and increase public transportation tenfold.

but to reduce injuries/fatalities measurably, we mostly need to target distracted driving, which is beyond obeying traffic laws, and gets into the design of cities, cars, and devices.
A native East Coaster here which also owns undeveloped land in Northern California (Modoc). While we here on the East Coast (Mid Atlantic) have been experiencing significantly larger quantities of rainfall per storm in the last 10 years it would seem to be the inverse to the West's issue and not as publicized since we have surplus. As to the land owned in California a month ago I was informed that PG&E would be killing the power to the area anytime the wind is forecast to go above 20 miles per hour and that planning should start immediately for localized continued power delivery whether parties decide to deploy generators or renewables with battery storage. PG&E speculates at this point that the area should anticipate 5 to 15 hours of outages a week and has zero information about when or if this will change. No matter the outcome of this unfolding event, as this document states “signed into law the Extending Government Funding and Delivering Emergency Assistance Act”, I am going to make an educated guess that no government will be solving this issue by printing more water or electricity.

uring only really applies for async IO - and would tell you when an otherwise blocking syscall would have finished. Since the benchmark here uses blocking calls, there shouldn’t be any change in behavior. The lifetime of the buffer is an orthogonal concern to the lifetime of the operation. Even if the kernel knows when the operation is done inside the kernel it wouldn’t have a way to know whether the consuming application is done with it.

> I would understand if Turkey applied for the romanized version of their name

This I just don't understand. Turkish is written in a Latin script with a few diacritics (and the extra character of the i without the dot.) It's hard to call any modification of their existing script a "romanization".

As for some of your examples, eg. Россия, I don't think they use a romanization of that word like Rossija or Rossiya at the UN, I think they use English or French translations of Russian Federation.

Unless it's a short hop (and often even then), even modestly long Amtrak routes will often cost more than flying--and even more if you book a sleeping compartment. There are only a few long distance routes I'd consider--all out West. And I'd pretty much only take them on the western part of their routes.
that sounds like no different than minetest.

myself i only play minetest on a public server without attacking mobs, so there is no hurry to build a base, and i can focus on building interesting stuff. i still have to get food, mine for materials and fix my tools so there is plenty to manage while building. and with other players on the server we can also build in collaboration.

my son likes to add mobs, so he is building and fighting mobs.
Except every node still needs an IPv4 address for that to work since it doesn't play nice with NAT. It also doesn't solve the issue of not being able to talk to IPv4-only hosts, since the issue is not the backbone or ISP anymore, but people building their stuff only with IPv4 in mind and don't care enough to add support for anything else.

It would have gained us very little and we would be in an even worse situation now (in some countries we are at > 50% IPv6 in the real world now!)
Generally, 500 words are usual per printed page and font, etc. You can tell a story in a paragraph or in millions of words. I don't think quantifiable information is always useful unless you're authoring formulaic content. What advice were you looking for in particular? Pacing, editing, and proofreading all matter. Every reader is different so their particular advice isn't always helpful.
I wrote this as a comment the last time this came up.

After reading what I could read, seems like there was a legitimate security concern, and rather than work on it the dev just sort of said, "Meh, I don't want to do non-dev things, let's just cancel this project. It's not fun anymore." Paraphrased.

He also wrote:

> Core problem

I 100% believe all of those points, but especially with open-source devs... most people who do those projects do them to avoid "real software" -- what I mean by that is the process that it takes to make enterprise software or software at scale. Project Managers, Product Owners, UX Designers, QA Testers, Security Consultants, etc. Most open-source projects tend to be the software equivalent of some guy in his garage building a model train set... just something you can do for fun to flex your skills. Focus on building, but not having to deal with the overhead of communicating, taking input, and compromising with others.

Anyway, building a side project is fine. But... like in another post someone was complaining about the certification cost of dealing with Google Data as a 3rd Party Developer... and like... I can't get on board with the sympathy bandwagon there. I want there to be a stringent process before Google even gives app developers the ability to request access to my data -- even if it's on my behalf.

And so... back to the analogy, building a model train is fine, but like... wanting to build a fully operational train all by yourself, and have others use it, ride on it, rely on it... at some point, it needs to turn into a "real" project. One of the hardest things about dealing with open-source projects is all the original creators of those projects who just don't want to play nice, and don't want to grow a team to grow and support their code.

One thing I've done when an agency or company I work for has used open-source code, we try and at least set up a lunch and learn with the creator. Good to get their vision of where the code is going, good to have that line if we need them to fix bugs. But like... 99% of the time, I know that any input we give... there's just no point. The creator doesn't want input, he only really wants to play in his basement with his model train. Buy him lunch, give him as big of a guest lecture stipend as I can, and move on.
Love this analogy. As a Canadian...we have the same monarch, but our own Constitution / elected officials. So...we are ourselves in the sudoers file...but surely we are different under this analogy than our UK brethren? What are we a VM with sudo root?
Nice project, great write-up!

Software is tough though, even the OpenMoko Neo FreeRunner had 128 MB Ram, and Illume was dropped from Enlightenment since. (There’s a note to revive it in the TODO file, though.) Of the ongoing “mobile Linux UX” efforts, Sxmo or Maemo Leste might be adaptable - they come in at below 200MB RAM on 2GB PinePhones.

Additional caveat: All these UIs have been made with touchscreens in mind.

This is incorrect, as far as the research into training for expertise goes. You actually want simulations to be like the real world: complex, ambiguous, sometimes with delayed feedback and presenting multiple forms of the problem. Of course, it also takes a good mentor to debrief with and untangle what was bad luck and what was bad decision making. (See the Oxford Handbook of Expertise if this stuff interests you.)
