Not have those labs? That’s one solution. Is the study of virology worth all the loss and suffering caused by a pandemic?
Abortion rights are a huge deal. But, as to your other argument, Google is a global company, headquartered in the US. I'm not sure if a majority of its employees are in the US these days.

I think you may be misinterpreting the GP as raising a whataboutism-like argument. I think they're saying "Yes, and also" instead of "No, instead". I realize many times bringing up unrelated problems is used to make "No, instead" arguments, but I don't think that's where the GP is going. I think they're applauding Google, and trying to use embarrassment to push for more broad actions on Google's part.
I’ve been evaluating the Warp terminal emulator as an alternative to iTerm on macOS for a couple months now and they have included a very similar feature to turn an NLP input to a shell command [0].

While for most of my work I’ll shamelessly fall back to Python scripts, basic operations that don’t warrant a script but still require tools like awk, sed, etc that I never learned have greatly benefited from this little tool. I found it far faster than combing through 3-4 StackOverflow answers and hodgepodging my solution together

There's very little question that the 1977 flu pandemic was human-caused. Even Gigi Gronvall opens her paper with:

> The 1977-1978 influenza epidemic was probably not a natural event, [...]

https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4542197/

She goes on to say it wasn't a "laboratory accident", because it was probably a vaccine accident, either an incompletely attenuated vaccine or a trial in which vaccine recipients were deliberately challenged with live virus to test their immunity. That distinction seems like a legalistic game to me, intended to distract from the lesson that pandemic may teach us about this one; but I believe her historical background is good.

I don't know any mechanism by which those responsible would be punished, even if the exact truth came out, and even if they're still alive. I'm not even sure they should be--virology was still in its infancy then, and the escape presumably really was an honest mistake. Of course the more times this happens, the harder it gets to accept such an excuse, especially when deliberate efforts are made to minimize and distract from the lessons of the past.
No, but my point was that a supply shock + that feedback (which is what our current labor market looks like) can create an inflationary spiral.
Fab guy here. Lots of references in the article about semiconductors. I posted about automation here a while ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=29331417

It is already extremely automated in the US for semiconductors.

If you have any questions about semiconductor manf, ask away.
They didn't just bury the lede, they didn't cover google's barn door security hole on the DMCA submission process that allowed this guy to submit a hundred or so DMCA takedown requests with no need to prove his identity.

And then there's this:

> Bungie had to devote significant internal resources to addressing it and
helping its players restore their videos and channels – an effort complicated by the fact
that while YouTube has a form that allows anyone to claim to represent a copyright
holder and issue copyright strikes, it has no dedicated mechanism for copyright holders
who are being impersonated to let YouTube know about the DMCA fraud

Small content creators have only been complaining about this for, oh, ten years or so?

> This meant that Bungie had to work through several layers of YouTube contacts over a period of several days before it could adequately communicate and begin addressing the problem.

Days? Several layers? Gasp! Fetch the vapors!

Now imagine you're not a billions-of-dollars-in-revenue worldwide-known gaming company - and thus you have zero ability to reach a human.
They weren't savages, insofar as "savage" has any actual non-derogatory meaning.

They were a people living in a low-tech (by modern standards) civilization.

They clearly did some super cool things, technology-wise, including some remarkable navigation.

That doesn't make it a good idea to throw away modern agriculture and go back to just eating whatever happens to grow naturally and hoping for the best.

200k people used to live on the islands. 1.5 million do now.
If it's a bogus claim then they don't need safe harbor for it...
> You are left with the 99%: mostly a lazy and horrible way to do contraception

Did you read Justice Thomas' concurrence? This court has contraceptives in its sight as well. I'm sure it's going to be a few, harmless steps towards theocracy?
Literally every state that bans abortion has concessions for rape victims, not a single one enforces any laws against birth control. I'm not sure who you think you're fighting here.
This law is putting her life at risk to grow a mass of cells that may kill her, so spare me your empty platitudes.
Apparently the wife of one of them was instrumental in attempting to overthrow our Republic. Is that not an impeachable offense? How is fucking treason not impeachable? I feel like I am losing my mind here, people.
If you call attention to this, you’ll be deplatformed and have your existence scrubbed. Internet activists who think you’re from the opposition party will target your employer and make you unemployable.

Inject yourself with this novel pharmaceutical if you want to feed your family. Absolutely insane. All for a virus that… what? Devastated the Alzheimer’s community? With an avg age of death above your life expectancy?
As I said in another comment: that’s simply not your decision to make. You’re neither qualified nor entitled to their private life; the fact that the particulars revealed to you in this instance meet your standard does not mean anything.

And no, our laws are not based on that fundamental principle. The US legal system is built on the English system, which emphasizes autonomy in the forms of property, self-legislation, and all of those other things that actually appear in our foundational documents.
> The project itself is terribly run--the maintainers recently pushed out an ABI change which broke everyone's code, but released it as a minor version bump.

When was this? What version? Thanks.
Even before congress there is a lot of wiggle room for Google to step in. Why is this possible? : “The immediate challenge for Bungie was that the company either didn’t know or couldn’t prove the identity of the culprit before filing the lawsuit.”

The takedown notice should come with a verifiable address. Google has a business directory for crying out loud! Just make it mandatory you have a business listing account.

I think that's fine, and by that logic religious institutions can avoid taxes by following charitable institution policies and tax regulations. That would keep a lot of the religious scam artists out of the water and money that says it's going to go somewhere good, going somewhere good. But I think we all know at least 1/2 of America's heads would explode.

What American government should do and what American government does are fundamentally different things and that ship has sailed. No different than what priests, teachers and actors should do.
I've been using xBrowserSync for over 2 years to sync 4 devices without issue. I do occasionally export my bookmarks for backup, but haven't had to use it. I switched after losing years of bookmarks to a Firefox sync issue. One of the best things about xBrowserSync (for me) turned out to be its workflow. I can't imagine going back to bookmarking in nested folders. Using tags with search is just so much better.
Before you pitch, see if you can find out how often the investors actually fund something. Also find out if the investors are full time investors, and how large the fund is, how large the firm is. I could be wrong, but I’d guess a first-order rule of thumb is the seriousness of the investor is more or less proportional to the size of the firm & fund.

I don’t know if this is what parent was referring to, but my town has a seed fund that calls themselves “angels”, but they’re not full time investors and they have a low rate of funding anything, and when they do it’s for small amounts. My business partner liked to call pitching for them “doing dinner theater” - it was literally in a restaurant. They were fine people, but they had very little idea of how to identify a good startup, and so pitching for them was both difficult and fruitless - they also didn’t really have any good advice or connections to help. It was weird, but pitching for larger funds was way easier, the larger the easier in my limited experience. The goal posts were clear, the rejections were quick and easy and helpful(!), and they gave us real and practical advice, and btw told us exactly why we were asking for too little money.

Experience pitching will reveal some things about the different kinds of investors. Aside from gauging the group of investors, probably the only other good advice I have is go around asking a bunch of people what they think about an investor, you can glean a lot from learning about people’s reputations. (Note that goes both ways - investors talk to each other and you will have a reputation soon enough, so keep your record clean!)
There is no such thing as 8051 love.
Disagree with the bit about one at a time. You’re laying off 50% of the company, and I can’t think of anything more nerve-wracking wondering if I’d be the next person tapped watching people go in-and-out of a conference room.
It’s a tiny part of abortions.

Mostly abortion is contraception after the fact, I think this part is morally wrong, a bit like killing a baby.
Okay, I will make a note to reply to you again when these things come to pass.

At some point, you have to admit that the "hysterical speculation" is really just foresight given current events.

Will you admit it then? I honestly am happy waiting to reply till then.
SCOTUS has now said both things actually at different points in time without any constitutional changes.

Shouldn’t decisions generally be considered durable unless there’s some kind of obvious injustice being perpetrated?

There’s a reason overturning this particular law is so bad. It’s a cultural flashpoint and SCOTUS has just lit the match and blown up any semblance of them being an apolitical body. Not just with this one decision but the gun control case too. Another commenter pointed it out. This particular bench is picking and choosing fairly inconsistently and extremely ideologically about how they want to rule and then trying to find some justification for it. Consider this. All the evidence to date suggests that abortions (generally) are extremely rare, extremely safe, and generally difficult choices. This is the government getting involved in YOUR healthcare which is very much a privacy issue so dismissing it as “it’s not constitutional” is tone deaf because the argument had been made that it is and been the law of the land for half a decade.

Another example was when they didn’t sustain the lawsuit against Texas’ abortion law. Wanna bet they’ll ban any similar legislation aimed at gun seller and manufacturers? Why does the 14th amendment warrant less protection than the 2nd? Not to mention that the 2nd at no point was about personal gun ownership. Well-regulated militia is about states being able to regulate their own armed forces outside of federal control, not implicitly deputizing every citizen of a state as part of a militia the state can’t regulate (one of the rare cases where textualism and living document should be in agreement and they’re not).
Just to be clear — you’re saying that yes, mothers should be forced, under threat of prison, to undergo dangerous surgery if it will save their child’s life? That’s what you’re advocating here, right?
I bet. But for hobbiest applications, which is better? Wondom/Sure provides a wealth of application info. Most people aren't building something to power Hi-fi systems, but more to just be loud or portable. Low THD is good but it's a matter of finishing George. As someone over 40, I doubt i could tell the difference from .1% THD and 1-5% honestly.

Here's what I believe leads to a lot of confusion: For most of the 20th century, chemotherapy usually meant small molecules that interfere with cell division, resulting in cellular death. Even in other mechanisms, it wasn't targeting a weakness specific to cancer, thus had many side-effects.

What's so special about Imatinib is it targets a fusion protein that is only present in a specific type of cancer. The target is called the BCR-ABL fusion kinase, because it is literally formed by portions of two genes - BCR, and ABL, on two different chromosomes being fused together when these. This drug is only able to bind that fused version, and hence has no impact on healthy (aka non-cancerous) cells. This was one of the first precision/targeted therapies of its kind.

What's super confusing is people eventually started calling these precision therapeutics "chemotherapy" as well, so the previous common-use meaning and layperson associations with the word became mostly muddled.

So - to drive the point home, with these targeted therapies, you can have immense benefit with minimal side effects. Not so much with the older stuff, which is also still used in many other types of cancers.
I’ll say it: the mother’s rights trump those of the fetus when they conflict.

If we accept the right of bodily autonomy then the fetus has no right to the mother’s blood and sustenance.

If the state denies pregnant women bodily autonomy then it must assume the responsibility to care for them. Stats that ban abortion should cover all costs of pregnancy, at minimum.

You know, small government stuff.
It's ok, I appreciate the apology and as with any internet interaction, realize it's hard for me to know what's going on in your life beyond the screen so I hope all is well.

Oh, I strongly agree that it could be riskier and most companies would probably prefer to appear apolitical, especially with those charged topics. I was a part of a global organization that seemed to take much pride in saying it was apolitical, but had many many many views on how society should be organized, so I think yes, the corporate culture can strongly discourage the appearance of being involved in politics or religion or sex or some taboo topics and to also discourage not just appearance but action as well.
The Supreme Court has allowed gerrymandering and dark money, both of which serve to make the American government completely unbeholden to their constituents. There is no recourse in the legislative branch as long as elections are decided by who writes the map and who pays for the ads.

And I’m not sure you don’t know that. I’m not sure that this ain’t a ploy. “States rights!” You say. “Solve it in the legislative!” You say. And when those efforts fail because the systems for choosing those representatives is rigged, what will you say? You will blame the voters. And all the whole more and more goes away and all the while you blame the voters.
I didn't say "largest". I said "democrats overreach". That's not saying "republicans don't".

Both do it... the idea that Democrats stay out of your lives is stupid. They want to control your lives every bit as much. They are trying to create a Ministry of Truth. They are sending the FBI after soccer moms. Biden made unconstitutional moves to use the FDA to enforce unproven vaccines. He's gotten slapped down by the courts repeatedly for various things.

In none of the previous paragraph did I say "republican are innocent". They both want expanded powers and will abuse them given the chance.

"have not moved the needle from player to overreach" one of the largest - if not the largest - expansion of government in recent history isn't "player" level. You can't say "1/3rd of people are covered by the government" and not admit that that is massive overreach for a federal government that has no right in that area to begin with. Lock stock and barrel: over reach.

Limelight officially acquires Edgecast, becomes Edg.io (Edgio)
So Limelight Networks (now officially Edgio) has acquired Yahoo's Edgecast and Layer0. All three seem have their own infrastructures. Layer0 uses Varnish, not too sure what Limelight uses and I'm almost entirely sure that Edgecast uses custom software for their infrastructure.

Edg.io is alive and well, but how in the world are they going to merge all three different infrastructures together? Even their ip-ranges? I feel like it would take at least a year to fully merge the worldwide networks and technologies to become somewhat consistent in speed and performance.

EGIO stock hasn't risen and nobody seems to really be talking about this at all. Maybe it's just the time period we're in but this seems like a big deal. This pretty much makes Edgio the largest and fastest CDN in the world.

Thoughts? Insight? Comments?
Part of that may be that feelings are a very difficult basis for constructive conversation if you disagree strongly. Even if you feel strongly, presenting your position as not emotionally based at least helps move the conversation forward.
On the other hand, a lot of these "red states" are really hostile to Californians moving in, too. We're low-key looking to move now that remote work is a thing, and I have direct knowledge of communities that overtly don't want political progressives moving in. One home seller's agent brought up that the seller is demanding what they called a "California Tax." The asking price is what it is, but if the buyer is from California, they want 20% more. And it's not because they think we are all rich and can afford it. These places just don't want us around.
Stocks have wiped out 7 trillion in value this year. At its peak the entire crypto market was 2.5 trillion and is now 1 trillion. So stocks lost 3 entire crypto markets worth of value this year, seems hard to say that it has the power to contaminate the system just yet.

Somewhat. They're free to travel, now, as you say, but Missouri now has the crime of "conspiracy to commit abortion" to cover you getting in your car to drive out of state, or booking a flight out of state...

Yep. They have already started talking about reversing marriage rights and contraception as well. It’s funny that an unelected body is now going to destroy the US and revert things that are clearly the majority opinion of the population.

Im glad I have dual citizenship because It does feel like the next 4 years is going to be a very sharp downturn (socially) in the US.

No, it doesn't sound arbitrary. It sounds predicated on the possibility for contagion, an objectively measurable event. This is why various tests/vaccinations mandatory for immigrants, eg to prevent the spread of TB. Also, fetuses aren't people in legal terms.
If you are interested on programming something like a 6800 or 6502, but would like to make a practical device and not just run in simulation, take a look at the STM8. It's a very widely used 8-bit embedded controller and architecturally very like a cleaned up and improved 6800.

The STM8S discovery board for this is $8 and in stock at ST and Digikey.This includes the target system and the ST-Link programmer. There are free commercial tool chains and the open source SDCC toolchain.

"You kids and your RISC! Back in my day we had seven addressing modes and we liked it!"

Everyone nowadays takes it for granted that you can use software to write software. There are still lots of graybeard programmers around who had to make do with punch-cards when they were learning.
This is awesome.

When I was maybe 8 or 9 my parents woke me up to watch a huge meteor shower. We sat in the street in camping chairs for the best view of the sky and it was magical. I remember it strongly to this day.
This is certainly a cool system from a theoretical perspective, and functions as a great mnemonic device, provided you know how the standard Indian alphabet is structured.

But fear not, there's a sort of mnemonic for that as well:

The first group of consonants are the stops. They are organized first by place of articulation from back to front (there are five of these), and next by the mode of articulation (five of these as well). So the first group (velar) for instance is

K kh g gh ng

In the katapayadi system these would stand for 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5, respectively.

After the stops come the vocalic consonants (y r l v) and then the sibilants (three of them once again back to front in articulation) (mnemonic: 1 thru 7) These are rounded off by 'h', whose placement I must confess I don't fully understand.

Having said all this, the practical implications of the katapayadi system for the actual learning and performance of Carnatic music are essentially none. A lot of the older ragas were retrofitted into the system ('dhee-ra'Shankarabharanam for the equivalent of the standard major scale, Shankarabharanam, with dh = 9, r = 2, flipped to give you 29)

Still cool though!
Pro-choice vs pro-life is pretty evenly split.

Even on the pro-choice side there is a lot of variance on when abortion should be restricted (similar to how Europe restricts abortions the closer to full gestation). Same on the pro-life side, views aren’t binary.

Considering most people don’t understand why Roe v Wade was overturned, I’m not sure opinions on whether it should have been mean much, since belief of what that means is all over the place.
