I’m surprised there’s been no call for a general strike. I think we would have seen one had Trump successfully illegally seized power and when the draft opinion leaked I was expecting rumblings of the idea of a general strike to start.
Do get states to decide on slavery again too?
I think such fundamental, health and freedom-related questions should be decided on a national level.
What exactly makes "sentience" a positive and "insentience" a negative?

We might as well invent a new word - say, "bodise" which means "insentient". Would in that case "bodise" be a positive and "inbodise" a negative?
Bitcoin maximalism like this is so ... pathetic.

Other cryptocurrencies are either functionally identical or improve on bitcoin in some way. There is no difference. Just give up.
Maybe I misunderstand, but wouldn't the attack be visible to the user when the encryption glitches out and they have to reattempt the login or something?
Any such law would be unconstitutional?

They may want to. I’m skeptical. But it’s unconstitutional.
Fair points, tbh. Does Ford make the battery pack and inverter available for purchase? It was my understanding the the Mach-E eluminator crate motor requires third party controllers because you can't buy their inverter and controller?
You don't legislate that. That's the point of states.
It's a simple vote exchange, you know. People got triggered badly by Roe and "liberal" rulings that actually enshrined the right of women to have a sexual life and control their own life, so they made a pact with the Republicans to overturn it. In exchange for that, the Republicans had a free hand to cut taxes to rich people and ensure that poor people stayed poor.
so does Netflix?
The liberal exchange of currency (arguably money in this case) is not a "black market." It's only a black market in the context that a government thinks it has the right to regulate private transactions to the extent that the physical address of a recipient needs to be on record. Is it a black market when I pay the neighbor kid to mow my lawn and don't report their address? Nonsense.

We very thankfully have more options for women that are much safer than coat hangers.

There are drugs that will allow women to have illegal abortions that are much much safer than a coat hanger. The important factor will be finding ways to get such drugs to women in states where they cannot be legally used, and ensuring that such a delivery mechanism delivers safe, and authentic drugs.
I would buy this as an argument if the Court, when presented with ways to absolutely improve the legislative situation, add more checks and balances to the legislature, and make it more democratic, doesn’t turn around and do the opposite (gerrymandering and Citizens United are two obvious examples).
I'd read "Surveillance Valley: The Rise of the Military-Digital Complex", by Yasha Levine, for a discussion of why Tor/Onion has relatively little value for private communications, unless it's used in a highly specific manner - and even then, one end of the communication is inevitably going to be known to metadata trackers at the very least. It's also highly probable that most or all Tor nodes on the Internet are backdoored by one intelligence agency or another at this point, meaning they can reconstruct the hops pretty easily.

Especially when you have a leaked opinion and already know what it's going to say.
Bad generalization and prejudice right there. While whether someone is brought up in an environment that encourages care absolutely influences the choices people make down the road, whether the person in question was "wanted" does not matter. I can't exactly back that up with some solid data but i think that many people know someone who is far from being an "unwanted" person but still made some bad choices in life.
Thomas - "...in future cases, we should reconsider all of this Court’s substantive due process precedents, including Griswold, Lawrence, and Obergefell. ... we have a duty to “correct the error” established in those precedents"

Griswold - contraceptives

Lawrence - same-sex sexual relations

Obergefell - same-sex marriage
In practice for you. Where I am, things are very different! Buffer overflows and memory corruptions, threading issues, uninitialized variables, etc appear on a very regular basis, and end up being very difficult to debug, mostly because the moment where you corrupt memory and the moment it triggers a bug can be very far apart.
That's an interesting way to illustrate the myth of meritocracy: random luck is enough to create a society of rich and poor.
Because the media is making it out to be the end of the world. This ruling does not ban abortion, it lets the states have jurisdiction over the issue.
It's not the undermining of precedent (for its own sake) that matters here. It's the contents of the precedent that are presumably bothersome to the upthread poster. Comparisons to precedents overturned in the name of progress are entirely reasonable to examine whether its the matter of precedents in general or specific contents that are issue.
They definitely did not.

RBG thought that Roe v Wade won for the wrong reasons, but didn't want to repeal it because of the damage she knew it would cause – she wanted to roll-forward rather than roll-back.

This court, or at least the conservative majority, are very much in favour of rolling-back, and I suspect are only vaguely in favour of letting the legislature pass laws because they know that there will be challenges to those laws that they can then get involved in, meanwhile they have shifted the overton window of women's rights.
The absolute worst PO I ever worked with had a CS degree, and kept asking stuff like "why aren't you using MVC" and specifying technical details that wouldn't work rather than a product vision.

Deep technical knowledge can help a PO, especially in technical products, but it should not be influencing how they present to the dev team. Otherwise they're just another even-less-accountable architecture astronaut.

It does remove the massive temptation of using the computer you're sitting at to look "just one thing" up.

My big complaint about it is that it's garbage.
Unless one is talking about CCW, then it's apparently a federal thing.
We're a small B2B automation systems integrator... We do simply let everyone work tens on Monday-Thursday and not come in on any Friday from June to September.

Business does come to a complete halt on Fridays every week, we just schedule service work, installs, meetings, vendor shipments, etc. for Monday-Thursday.

You might be surprised to learn that the sky does not fall down. Sure, if a customer has a disastrous issue on a Friday, I'll typically get called to remote in and help fix it, but that happens maybe once a month? And if it takes until Monday to resolve the issue, the world does not come to an end.
Me too, but I've often found this is because of end customer assumptions and not any explicit statements. I've seen the same issue with other manufacturers at times and other parts, and its not really a new problem.
they want immigrants not natural citizens, you can pay an immigrant less for five generations
Well... we actually have a constitutional amendment directly banning slavery, and no such amendment for interracial marriages which are never mentioned constitutionally. It's easy to resolve from a purely constitutional perspective.
This explanation is dumb. If the oil investments looked like they would pay off, companies would be incentivized to expand way more and capture more profit.

You’re suggesting they are refusing to increase production out of greed, but the greedy move would be to expand drilling and refinement to capture more of the high margin volume. Preventing this defector behavior requires an explicit cartel (see OPEC), which is not legal in the US.

So your explanation for why oil companies don’t increase production is lacking.
I think you should be penitent for using too-new JS features.
Low end printers are sold at a loss. Manufacturers must sell OEM ink/toner to make a profit. If you do not what to purchase expensive OEM ink/toner, there are many ink tank type printers available. Those printers are sold at a profit because replacement ink is sold at essentially no profit.
Not exactly useless but I haven't updated it for a long time. The project is called react-qml[0]. Basically it allows you to develop Desktop application using modern JavaScript/TypeScript and/or Qt/QML.

So no Twitter for you.
You are wrong to say it is a centralized solution. My channels, my peers, c-Lightning and a friends open source wallet. Where is the centralization? Where is the trusted third party?

DevOps is already low-code. You can't program people... at least in this sense. Maybe you mean something else like Low-code IaC? Low-Code cloud?
Your statement is a rephrasing of the old Marxist slogan "[F]rom each according to his ability, to each according to his needs". How is that not enslavement to others merely for being more able?
And laws against sodomy have... you guessed it... long-standing historical precedence. Though in the case of sodomy laws banning it aren't as historically universal as the practice of interracial marriage was.
It could.

Or it can offer tens of millions of dollars for some software and see who bids.

Especially when the previous provider would probably like to get more money selling something to the government, even if they have to make changes.

The above poster was willing to pay "1% GDP" for the initial migration and for the US 200 billion dollars would pay for a lot of development work.
> I hope that whomever supported this ruling is happy right now, and I'd like to remind them that, while Jesus Christ never gave to abortion the slightest mention, he was quite vocal about the fact that greed was not compatible with salvation. I'd like to see Evangelicals and other Christians being as vocal for social justice as they were for abortions and same sex marriage, but I guess they do care more about putting woman back in the kitchen as indentured servants more than they do about social justice.

It isn’t about religion. It’s about power and control. We need to stop pretending it has anything to do with Jesus and everything to do with power over others. Nietzsche is more relevant here than Jesus.
What you're saying makes no sense, storing your money in crypto is like putting it in a even less trustworthy foreign bank.
Yes, when replying to my general comment, you shouldn't use the typical conservative rhetorical tactic of using the specific to ridicule the principle.

I was making a general argument about the pattern one can see across the economy. The printer market is another example of the same pattern that we see all over the place.

I don't claim that the printer market is a single entity that towers over all - my point is that our economic system optimises for this eventuality. Again: this isn't controversial, antitrust laws have been in place for a very long time.
A colleague in a former workplace tried to quit and was persuaded to stay by the offer of a four day week on the same salary (talented guy, difficult and expensive to replace). From what I could tell the result was that he was highly motivated, continued to be very productive and of course was much happier. I think he took Mondays off, and would use the extra day to go on longer trips at the weekend (often surfing iirc) that he wouldn't have otherwise been able to. I really envied him :)

They absolutely will and already are. There will be loopholes or lax enforcement for the rich and white, but the poor and non-white will have those options restricted and prosecuted.

Just backing up what others are saying, I think it's a combination of it being an acquired taste, and also finding what works for you.

Do they have an equivalent API? Rust does have a hard time explaining very, very low level stuff that you'd have to do unsafe and various magicks. But once you get the unsafe details right, the consumer API for them tends to be extremely rigid and fool proof.
These countries are insanely unstable in a lot of ways to the point that it's hard for the average joe to move "significant to them" sums of money out of them. Furthermore, you need to pay serious bribes to operate a business. Privacy forward blockchains can help with that.

I think first you have to answer how it is possible for a living object to be sentient.
The cost of a professionally printed photo is pretty cheap. For most people it is cheaper to have their photos printed professionally when they want one printed. You have to print a lot of photos per month to make the cost of a printer worth it. (I suspect beyond the duty cycle rating of cheap printers). I have a printer (laser!) anyway because while I don't print often, when I do I want it now, without having to get the kids ready and drive to a professional printer.
From a purely judicial perspective, slavery is explicitly abolished in the US Constitution, via amendment.

The approach that Thomas favors is "text, history, and tradition". The words - as written - taken in light of what the author(s) intended and what was happening at the time.
The Fourteenth Amendment guaranteeing equal protection was supposed to end the patchwork system of having to live in the right state to be recognized as a full citizen.

Can you help me get on track by sharing what you mean by its never a faux pas to show up overdressed? That’s the part that just seems quite surprising to me in my experience. I would say it’s just as easy to show up over as under dressed in an awkward way, rather than something that can never happen.
Concerning the issue with function arguments, this is one of the reason why OCaml has labelled arguments. And for instance, Janestreet's idiom udes labelled arguments as often as possible.

Similarly, I am not sure what is the issue with using imperative OCaml for imperative algorithms when they are a better fit for the problem at hand?
Not just abortion. The Roe v. Wade established certain rights to privacy.

Overturning Roe v. Wade opens the door for banning contraception, banning interracial relationships, messing with family relationships, right to intimacy, the right to personal control of medical treatment.
> If you're passed-out-drunk, how would you even know it was a theft?

Fall asleep thinking you are carrying bag. Wake up when slightly less drunk. No find bag. Freak out. Rush to report bag as stolen.

Later go back the all the bars in town (forgot where you went), and find the one where you left your bag behind.
Skimming the book, most of it isn't terribly specific to smartphones. It's more or less an introductory book on astrophotography in general.

When compared to world currencies BTC currently has an inflation rate that makes it the second most inflationary currency in the world after Venezuela. As a store of value crypto is not great.
From a consumer point of view, the engine in use is of no consequence. The engine doesn't make the browser. Otherwise, it would be called "WebKit" and not Safari. Users perceive the browser as a collection of UI, look and feel, integration with services, and other ecosystems - all built on top of the engine. All unrestricted on iOS.

What consumers also expect is for things to work. Reliably. I can't wait for pages to start asking people to download browser X because "opinionated" devs decided they only want to support their favorite brand.
You can't just ramp up hydro though...and sure it's 75% hydro right now, but if you are adding another 20% to the grid to deal with electric car charging where is that coming from? Across the US there has been no hydro or nuclear investment for the past 30 years...wind and solar aren't currently being added quick enough to deal with the increased need (not to mention the push for converting all NG appliances and heating to electric).
That's so many read flags in one place that it resembles May 1st on the Red Square.

As I understand it, at any point where the Democrats held the majority of the legislature (including now) they could have passed federal abortion legislation and this would be moot.
How so? Threaded tweets are given priority over the comments and will show sorting my first in a thread chain. You have to purposely scroll past the thread to see such footnotes.

Or do you mean you hate how comments and retweets are more important than the thread itself? In that case that, to me, is just an internet thing. I got one enjoy comments about the material more than the material it self.
I am fine with this contrarian argument, but why does it stop at birth? There’s no support (universal healthcare for children, paid maternity/paternity leave, etc etc). Conservatives apply these arguments inconsistently.
But the Supreme Court just banned the rights of states to decide how they apply gun laws. Specifically, New York was prevented [days ago](https://www.cbsnews.com/news/supreme-court-gun-law-new-york-...) from deciding how concealed carry should be implemented.

Surely you can see the hypocrisy in only being in favour of state rights when it suits you.
Except for all those constitutional rights... Freedom of religion being one, and their are at least two recognized religions where abortion is a religious right.

So there you go, freedom for Christian's not for anyone else, a good Christian nation! /s

It's actually written in the Constitution that we as Americans enjoy many rights that aren't explicitly written in the text. It's in the 9th amendment and 14th amendment due process clause.

The 14th, to me, encompasses everything that it means to be American: self-autonomy. The right to marry outside our race, the right to choose our sexual partner, the right to birth control are established in the due process clause.
> So the issue is really what the hell is wrong with the states where the people elected feel empowered to take rights away from half their populace.

As I just said in my chosen Mastodon instance:

“Ever since today’s Supreme Court decision was leaked, some have said that this oddly might hurt the Republicans in future elections — i.e., they’ll no longer have Roe v. Wade to use against the Democrats. However, this ignores what made today possible: the power of the Christian Right, particularly those whose votes won’t be erased by some currently running for office on promising to make it harder for anti-Rightists to vote (or have their votes count).”

Those of you who don’t have a lot of exposure to that culture, and the way it has completely taken over a good chunk of American politics — not to mention one of the two major U.S. political parties — in the last forty-plus years, will find today a shock. And wait ’til you see what else they have in mind.
Loving v. Virginia was decided in 1967.
What enabled this is large populations who voted republican purely for this cause due to religious reasons.
Humans are sentient and we're made out of matter, just like these computers.
