What makes the Bible unique in this context is that there are huge amount of resources that all reference the same basic structure.

One of the things that makes KJV version useful for scholars is that since it's been the "standard" for hundreds of years a great deal of other work references its structure. People use it because of this. It's less to do with it being a fabulously accurate translation or whatever. It's just newer bibles don't have this wealth of history and documentation that references it and much of them are pretty expensive to license, while KJV is public domain.

For example "Strong's Exhaustive Concordance". If you get a version of KJV with "Strong's Numbers" you can cross reference words and phrases in their original languages (greek/hewbrew/etc). This way students can understand some of the original meanings that go into difficult or disputed passages.

Also there is a large number of commentaries of all sorts of different types that reference specific passages.

Besides that KJV is just mostly valued in Protestant Christian dialects of Christianity. Other Christian religions such as various versions of Eastern Orthodox have different numbers of books or will arrange things in different orders. There have been different attempts to past scholars to arrange things in more chronological order, too.

This makes the Bible fairly unique when it comes to literature. Each verse of text can have dozens of different "back links" and "references".

so if somebody searches for the subject "Homosexuality" it will get hits in various commentaries. Those commentaries all directly reference verses in the Bible.

So you could show the version found and why it was selected. That way a reader would be shown "These authors think this verse is has to do with homosexuality" and they could click through and find out the justification for this, different translations, what those translations are likely based on, what other Christian sects feel this verse means, and so on and so forth.

I don't know if it would be useful for you, but there is a "Sword Project" that collects and cross references different Bibles and bible resources as well as tools.

Look at my latest gizmo...on a drone! Look at my latest data crunch app...on the web! Yep, smells like management all over.
The...legal policy?
Reading these comments and the article, I have to wonder if the Internet and social networks are to blame.

So much of what we do described here is about skirting the rules in a healthy way, in doing things everyone knows happens but can allow to keep happening by plausible deniability.

Now, everything is online. Not only is everything documented and shared, but Twitter et al amplifies anything that any aggrieved and motivated group doesn't like.

It seems impossible to have any kind of semi public organization "just do fun things" any more, because some rule jockies or outsiders will scream about it, making it impossible for councils and administrations to turn a healthy blind eye.

There's a huge difference in where plumbers vs. SWEs live, though. You have to compare the actual purchasing power. SWEs are more likely to be located in HCOL areas and therefore have higher salaries because SWEs need the infrastructure cities provide. Whereas there are plenty of plumbers who live in rural areas.

I have no idea how that comparison would shake out, or if the rise of WFH for tech people would/will change it, though.
Wait, France makes it illegal to keep paying an employee and tell them not to do any work?

That sounds awful.
This seems to be a middle-ground.

You can more confidently allow third-party cookies, which means that certain features that broke with the blocking of all third-party cookies will now be able to work, but you maintain most of the protections that you gained when you used to block them.
Wow, it's been a while since so many ads annoyed me.
Let me skip the psychological affirming talk that "you will be alright" and "it's just an imposter syndrome". You won't and it isn't. But unlike most people in a similar situation, you understand where you are and why you are there, and you're young, so have a few years to fix this.

Your immediate concern should be getting a software dev job. Not "support" or "tester" - that would dig you further into the hole. You need a legit job you could put on your resume, so next time you could claim "industry experience". If your experience is "customer support" you're stuck in that role for life, absent of divine intervention. When applying for a dev job, be bold and confident, because most of the devs out there are incompetent and don't know much. It's a very expensive mistake to think that you should spend another few years learning, and only then get a job. Every year halves your chances. In fact, you should use the moment to try to move to the US - 90% of outcome is determined by where you live, 9% of the rest by where you work and that remaining 1% by your skill.

While accruing that "industry experience", faking work or whatever, you should learn and you already know what to learn. Implement a basic raytracer in some popular languages and by the time you'll have completed this little project, you'll know more than 95% beginners. Implement something with databases and distributed systems: put it on AWS, document how it works, what solutions you picked and why. That would make you more competent than most devs with 10 yoe.
GitHub has a lot more limitations on free projects last I checked, like making it private and using GitHub pages and how many people you can add.
We don’t have a lot of “what we’re you thinking?!” data on these pilots.

I think if you do this servile type of job for years, the passengers become the cattle the rest of of the industry treats them as. My guess (but I’m am not a suicide contemplating jumbo liner pilot), is that any signal from those doing this is against the job/industry itself as the stressor in the pilot’s life.

Perhaps we should avoid practices that dehumanize the pilot’s relationship with the cargo, er, uh, passengers. Maybe the stats say otherwise, but you don’t hear about a lot of tourist ride pilots (bush, etc) doing the in flight nose dive.

I’m curious how many pilots take their lives in more traditional means (e.g. just themselves).
Perhaps I did misunderstand, I was certainly interpreting it as a desire for concrete change in the political structures of how the world is run rather than a shift in attitudes amongst the people of the world. I'm definitely not opposed to less conflict in the world!

Personally I don't really agree with your assessment of the EU as a form of that though. In this context I would include something like the EU when talking about larger governments (maybe that's not strictly correct, but it is what I had in mind with my original comment). There are of course lower levels in the EU (i.e. the individual countries) but that's also true for many countries with a central government and smaller regional authorities (e.g. London & Edinburgh).
Hetzner.com is down (502 error)
Looks like hetzner.com is down, throwing 502 gateway error and some timeouts. Not a good look when I was just looking to become a customer. Their status page reports nothing.
Cool. Just a heads' up that I had to disable it on Zendesk and Asana so they could talk to each other - you might experience similar issues.
It may be that pilot murder-suicides are a terrible problem, but the data in this article does not back this up. The graph of the data they show is an almost textbook-grade ‘evil’ graph.

What the graph shows is that

* all cause flying mortality is way, way down over the last 30 years

* in raw deaths 2011-2020 was way up over prior decade but only slightly up over the one prior to that

* there has been one crash this year that might have been an m-s crash.

The graph doesn’t use the same time scales for the different bar charts, and doesn’t show any useful data like

* percentages against all air travelers or flights (way, way up since the 90s and down during covid)

* unit number of crashes

* that the stats might be ‘0’ this year after all depending on outcome of investigation of a single flight

Given all this and the raw numbers of people (single digit hundreds per decade), it’s also possible that rather than this being an epidemic, there were like 4 crashes in the 1990s, 0 in the 2000s, 3 in the 2010s, and possibly 1 so far in the early 2020s.

Again, terrible, but if this is the situation, then appropriate response might not be mass publicity, especially because stories like this can be memetically viral and help cause the behavior they describe.

Because the only way anyone can be allowed to do what they want with their money is accepting that you cannot guarantee zero people will get scammed. If you let people buy shares, some will get scammed. Ditto bonds or gold or real estate etc.

So either you give people zero choice or you accept cases like this will happen.

That doesn't mean you don't try to minimise it or don't prosecute people or whatever.

Android.

On my previous phone downloading worked on its own and syncing the position of streamed files worked but the position of downloaded files wouldn't sync.

However I just switched phones and now downloading doesn't work at all (if I try to add a media folder outside of the Downloads folder it will get permission errors; if I add a folder inside the Downloads folder it will allow me to add it but the app will crash whenever I actually try to download a file).

Basically it just seems to be incredibly buggy so maybe it's just a crapshoot whether it will work on your phone.
99.9% of crypto investors don't know how crypto works. my brother (who is a cop and has no clue) bought my dad (who is close to 80 and was a construction worker with no clue) for fathers day a year or two back and hardware wallet. said he's making bank with crypto investing in alts that the cops discuss. he had me set it up and i kept saying "please please don't invest a lot". luckily he capped himself at 5k. i don't want to ask what he has now....
I don't read Chinese and can't provide you links, so treat this as very anecdotal. But here's what my (Chinese) wife tells me from their news.

It seems the co-pilot was very senior and experienced. But because of the politics of a corporate buyout, he was forever relegated to a supporting role. Job advancement, or even the recognition of his skills, was impossible. He was destined always to be in the right seat. He had complained to management multiple times and given them threats (I'm not sure what the nature of those threats were; likely just to quit?).

This came to a head with the crash of the Chinese real estate markets, where he'd had a lot of investment. Basically he lost everything.

The story - again, third hand at best by now - is that he left a note before embarking on that final flight.
it's interesting how we are fine to let GDP drop considerably to reduce the impact of Covid, but we are perfectly fine to let millions die from air pollution because we don't want to impact GDP.
I have no idea what this article is about except that the guy didnt lose his house because he only used pensions funds, so therefore he is lucky
I think they can cut you off here but it's less common.

If I get fired from my company I get like a year's wage to go (and government assistance after that) so I wouldn't be that upset. Hence no need for a disorderly exit.

I think it's more in the US when people are let go with nothing, I think it's pretty obvious that they'd be pissed about it.
This is a fantastic way to do this. I wish Safari worked the same way instead of just completely blocking third-party cookies.

I've participated in a number of layoffs, and while I agree with the advice to be honest, not fake smiley, with you'll-land-on-your-feet platitudes, I would strongly recommend not talking about your own feelings. It's not about YOU (the person doing the layoff who gets to keep his job), it's about THEM (the people losing their jobs who probably earn less than you and have less financial security). Telling them how hard it is for you comes across as self absorbed and can provoke a strong negative reaction. Instead, be understanding, give them space to be angry and hurt, and help them any way you can.
Reserves have fallen severalfold since the basin was opened in the 1970s. Oil and gas cannot be produced on the same scale for the same returns as in the past. Most of the best wells have dried up.

The UK and Scottish governments are both committed to net zero, which means the managed decline of the North sea oil and gas industry. Sturgeon has publicly taken a harder position on this than Johnson since COP26.

If Scotland became independent nothing would change. Unless you think the SNP will confect new reserves out of nothing and abandon their climate pledges?

Thanks for the comment! I wanted to keep the html and css as simple as possible so I didn't put much layout. If it gets traction I will improve that. Same thing for the font.

It's all hand crafted. My first time using golang so the code is probably not as efficient as it could be.

LinkedIn isn't perfect, but it fills a gap and that's to help find people jobs. If you create another social app but without the incentive of people making posts about w/e the fuck they want to post about it, it's going to be boring and not active.

Indeed. It is only 99.99% true.

In the UK, if you place an employee on garden leave immediately there is a legal argument during tribunal that the redundancy was predetermined (and thus unfair).

You mentioned that "they are entitled to learn why and what has been done to try to keep them", but actually it's much further than that - they are entitled to be part of the conversation and to propose alternatives to the dismissal which the company is legally obligated to consider.

As an example, if the redundancy proposes to make a team redundant and split that teams responsibilities across other teams, the consultation might raise that the team being made redundant could take on additional responsibilities and down-size as an alternative which could result in fewer redundancies. Similarly, employees could suggest an initial round of voluntary redundancies first to reduce the people impact (particularly if there are employees nearing retirement age). The employer is legally obligated to genuinely consider these alternatives, however if the action was taken immediately to disband the team and place employees on gardening leave it is much more difficult for them to argue that the consultation was 'genuine'.

If a genuine consultation is not held, where alternatives are listened to and genuinely considered, this could then be brought to an employment tribunal and could open them to unfair dismissal claims.
The reason no one would accept the 999999/1 split is because it is a terrible choice from an evolutionary perspective.

You're getting pretty much nothing while your genetic competitor gets a huge advantage. This is not rational. Natural selection would cause the genome of people who accept this split to be less likely to survive.

Accepting only even splits helps select for cooperation. If your neighbors are more likely to work with, share, and help you and your children, your DNA will be more likely to survive.
The difference in fuel consumption more than makes up for that small battery and powertrain.

That's at least two metric tonnes of fuel saved over the lifetime of the car compared to ~150kg of additional components. The process of making them would have to be especially dirty to reach the environmental footprint of such an amount of fuel.
How is it different? If you are on paid leave, you are not supposed to do any work. For security reasons your access can and should be restricted for this period.

Making people in developing countries poorer is not a “missed opportunity”, is not realizing the true context. Because, yes, trying to force people in developing countries to “buy an EV!” (or equivalent) when they can barely purchase a 10-year-old SH car from Germany will make them poorer.

The difference between gambling and crypto is in the timelines. Gambling has a high frequency where crypto is quite a bit lower. This allows some lucky people to 'exit the casino' by the virtue of being lucky enough to have won the bet, and being pressured somehow to cash out and not continue gambling. For some, it is a birth of a child, perhaps a purchase decision etc. Low frequency allows for these events to take place, betting on horses does not.

I actually really appreciate GitHub issues for its simplicity: just a list of issues that need addressing. I found most more "advanced" systems to be much harder to use and get an overview of things, especially with larger projects. I found that "just a list of things" with some labels usually works best both from a programmer's and from a management perspective.
The issue I have more often is that APT repos generally are just named "jammy" or such, and then you have to remember which release that was.
Wasn't that the whole idea? “GitHub: Social Coding”.

Don't feel like you need to know everything when you start. A friend of mine just got hired to his first posting after uni. He will spend 9 months at least learning the ropes of the job. Reason why is that it's very esoteric and not a sought after skill. Thing is thou, it's a backend process for a product that's very old and is required by many compliance rules even if it kinda does nothing. It will still be in demand for decades still and he can comfortably trust that he will have this job for as long as he wants it. Thing is there's a ton of IT work that needs to be done and nobody wants to do it. And since nobody wants to, nobody knows how. The only way for companies to get those tasks done is hire someone that has to learn on the job.
Absolutely! I've been trying to find lower cost motors for use in building musical instruments, and I keep going back to IQ Vertiq motors because the builtin ESC has firmware based anti-cogging, which creates super smooth motion that I haven't found any other way of achieving with a brushless motor.

I write Rust and C++ for a living and completely agree with this. While I do like Rust in general, the language is so complicated that anything other than trivial programs is going to take way longer to implement than in any other language. Testing code in Rust is also half baked at best, I find that any other popular language has better capabilities than Rust in this aspect, including C++. I'd even go as far as saying that for a startup I'd use C++ before Rust if performance was a feature, otherwise I'd just go with something that has batteries included like Python or Golang.
Absolutely this. It was my misfortune to lay off teams of 20+ 3 times. You are the instrument. In that moment, they will want to hate you and you shouldn't try to deflect it. Do everything you can constructively behind the scenes to improve the situation before and after the announcement but, in that moment, it's not about you.
honestly this is a nightmare'ish point of view for anything but hard science at senior level. The emotional environment of being monitored constantly is toxic. Control-oriented people gravitate towards constant monitoring in similar ways as the Executive and their Dashboard are described above. How can thinking and feeling humans delegate interaction in a learning environment to machinery ?

AFAIU perspective compression is a key element of the illusion - when the moon gets closer to the horizon/treeline/skyline, our mind creates a sort of vignette with limited FOV for perceiving it, in which the relative size of the moon appears larger (because our focus has become inadvertently and subconsciously narrower).
If you block an ambulance and someone dies that can be considered manslaughter. Likewise, if a cop prevents people from trying to save others which they obviously aren't going to do, then that would be very similar.
