No, this is not about Nazis. Putin simply always considered Ukraine to be part of Russia's legitimate "sphere of influence" and tried to steer it into becoming a pro-Russian vassal state. It's part of his incorrect views as a hobby historian. As a psychopath, or at least sociopath, he calculated that the 2014 invasion would not meet any strong resistance and was right. So he calculated in 2022 that grabbing more territory would work, too, and was wrong.

The problem with dictators like Putin is that they always overestimate their own judgments and nobody tells them when they're wrong. You could be the smartest guy of the world, if you run a whole country, are insanely rich, and constantly surround yourself with Yes-men, then your perception of reality will fail at some point. It's inevitable.
There's nothing US companies can do to make themselfes legal to use here. The legal framework in the US allows dragnet spying on every non-american and american companies are forced to participate in that effort.

Count yourself extremely lucky if you know for certain it was caused by NSAIDs. Thats easy to fix compared to a bacterial infection. I have done a two week water fast to let ulcers in my stomach/gut heal in the past with great success.

People claim these systems dont shut down as you are still digesting body fat, but they for the most part do shut down and somewhere in doing that they heal very quickly. I have done it a few times (for NSAIDs and other pain killers having done damage to gut and stomach and when i get glutened giving me ulcers in my gut).

A benefit is that things like food dont rub against the ulcers which are basically like little cuts and that helps too heal too during the fast. You can go on having pain for months or years trying to deal with them in another way. Remember to dose some losalt for potassium and sodium ( your electrolytes ) while you fast to limit the dizzyness and fatigue. Im not sure magnesium powder would be a good idea due to it being tough on the stomach normally... it would stop the muscle cramps you will get... but it might stop the whole thing working ... i never used it while healing ulcers and lining damage .... but i have more recently when fasting to lose weight and it does make it easier .. magnesium tablets or capsules would be a terrible idea though those are really tough on the stomach and have a lot of added ingredients in the fillers and capsule depending on the company. Smaller fasts would also help. Good luck.

I'm too lazy to check the GPL comment (I'll assume I made a mistake). But as far as I can tell my only reference to Stack Overflow was not about liability based on copying from SO. I was making a comment about a common industry practice.
I had him as well in 2012.

He was fun back then, but I think a little bit of fame has gotten to his head. I think he wants to get people to really think about their beliefs, why they have them, and if it's reasonable to have them, but his methods are indistinguishable from bad faith trolls that are "just asking questions" (aka, JAQing off).

Sometimes, but not always.

Some people want to buy drugs to do drugs with other people and to fit in. If their friends or whoever didn't do drugs they may not buy drugs themself.

Some people want to own guns to go hunting by themself and would still want to do it even if nobody else owned guns.
Slowing the flow of money out of the public purse and into a very small number of barely accountable global megacorps and private equity funds, whilst improving the employment prospects of the local population, sounds like it's worth the cost of repeat work.

Also, nature loves a bit of redundancy. And capitalism loves competition. You can't have competition under a monopoly.

Another possibility would be some kind of crystals growing from sulfur and covered in bacteria.

You say this, but right this very moment a bill with more gun control is being whisked through the Congress with the support of 14 Senators, who've already got it past cloture.

Of course, one interpretation is that they don't want to win back the Congress this year.

As for the Democrats, they've been anti-gun too long, too hard for anyone in " rural/hunting areas" which they've also made clear they want to outright destroy if they haven't already for them to try to make a switch for the foreseeable future.

Those of us who are a bit old remember how 7 years of election disasters from the Republicans taking back the Congress in 1994 to Al Gore in 2020 (and no matter what you think about Florida, that the election was even close should tell you something) resulted in a truce that only lasted until Obama's reelection. The party would have to fundamentally transform itself and reverse 157 years of policy (Dred Scott, which Thomas quoted in his decision, or you could start with post-Reconstruction).

I think it's more to do with the overall company strategy.

As phones have matured as a product people have stopped buying them at the same pace as in early years. And so to counteract this Apple has gone heavily into services, accessories etc.

So just as Apple has increased OS support periods for phones they are much happier now for people to fix their phone and stay in the ecosystem than switch to Android.

> Of course Rust does the same thing with certain non-memory-safety bug checks like integer overflow.

The problem with getting lost too much in the ironclad certainties of Rust is that you start forgetting that simplicity (papa pia) protects you from other problems. You can get certain programs in pretty messed up states with an unwanted wrap around.

Programming is hard. Rust is cool, very cool, but it's not a universal silver bullet.

Really dumb take.
> Is Copilot the same as a human programmer reading a lot of GPL code and rehashing, in a non-infringing way, the algorithms, functions, and designs used in a lot of FOSS?

It literally can't do it in an "in a non-infringing way" as it wasn't made to do it "in a non-infringing way".

People were able to get copy-pasted code verbatim. It means it does not know whether what it does infringe on the GPL or not.

Let say you find a human that never knew anything about copyright and you show him a bunch of Disney movies and you ask him to make you a movie and he literally copy one of their movie. Does it make it non-infringing? (Funny thing is, even people aware of copyrights does infringe it... so yeah hard to say even a machine could make some non-infringing content).

The solution would be to at least make him aware of copyrights and works with that, but first is it even possible, and seconds, is it even enough...

Sadly nothing will ever be done, at least not until it we feed it Disney movies and it start to affect their bottom lines.
My grandfather and his brother (sons of poor immegrants) traveled halfway across the country in their youth with nothing but a motorbike and some tools. They stopped at a farm each night and worked out a deal to do some equipment repair work in exchange for food and a place to sleep.

Those days are long gone. Fewer small family farms, fewer friendly and trusting people, fewer simple things for mechanically minded handy men to fix.

There's a lot of good things progress brings us, though it is often interesting to ponder on what we have lost.

I wonder how many refugees could have saved themselves a lot of pain if they tried some of this advice before burning out and leaving.
I suggest you read up on the history of free software and open source. It exists as a reaction to intellectual enclosure, to prevent that ill and create greater freedom of ideas. Yes, it uses the tools of copyright to fight greater ills of copyright, because those are the tools available, and actions like these are necessary to keep the enclosure from happening all over again. Anyone who has actually studied the matter for even five minutes can see how silly the "free software is anti-freedom" FUD is.

I use Vivaldi, actually. It does update the extension, but disables it as described, when new sites are added.
Yeah, there's no chance that this golden goose could ever be killed in a modern democracy. If the companies would still be profitable paying 50% royalties, then the 38% difference between that and 12% royalties represents the amount the industry will be able to spend (without thinking about it for a moment) to bribe politicians, create fake public-interest organizations and think-tanks, and settle cases like this.
HuggingFace will soon release their BigScience model: https://twitter.com/BigScienceLLM/status/1539941348656168961

It is. Most startups in the EU have to use more and more businesses in the EU. The selection is little, so way more changes to succeed if your EU based and serve both markets.

> I sometimes read people's open source code on github and use the ideas from that to develop my own ideas.

Yes, I too, and probably many people will do.

> In fact sometimes I copy and paste short passages and then rework them.

This I usually don't unless I check the license first. (Everybody ought to be allowed, but sometimes the license might not be.)
> There are successes and failures in both weed users and non-weed users, so you can't use that as a variable for anything.

That's not how that works. The existence of both successes and failures in weed users does not prevent a comparison of the rates of successes and failures between weed users and non-weed-users.

Making the above comparison and noting that successes per capita are lower in weed users of an otherwise identical demographic doesn't cast judgement on anyone.
It is correct to suspect that Rust will turn out to be a transitional language. If Rust fizzled (still very possible!) it would be embarrassing, and maybe troublesome.
Actually I'd say its got some sort of anticholinergic effect.

The whitey that people experience, usually first time users or infrequent users, is a release of glutathione, and obviously its messing with the endocannabinoid system.

Its also got a very potent memory wiping effect, which makes it useful for criminals doing stuff to you, like raping you in your sleep if you have been spiked with prescription sleeping pills and/or off the shelf anti histamines sold to aid sleep.

Its a very nasty combination of drugs, when that sort of stuff has been done to you in your sleep, and criminals never tell you what they plan to do to you!

Dont make it easy for them, the legal system wont help you!
I concur with this, and also, one possible solution to this from a technical perspective is to increase the amount of fuel carried for ion/hall effect and similar thrusters (high specific impulse, low thrust) for periodic orbit raising maneuvers to extend lifetime.

Theoretically, as $ per kg launch costs come down with things like reusable falcon 9, it makes it much less costly to equip medium sized LEO satellite with more fuel than it might have costed 10 or 15 years ago.

Or if you have something that needs to orbit really low and minimize drag/maximize lifespan, you could design it to be particularly aerodynamic and shaped like this:

There are a lot of code monkeys out there and I might be one of them. That island of job security seems like it will be shrinking.
With academics, I think the problem is to some degree self-created. In the Boomer days, they copped the attitude that their research was the only thing that mattered and that teaching was unimportant grunt work to be delegated as much as possible. This resulted in under-educated, condescended-to politicians reducing their funding, and this combined with administrative bloat (another Boomer trick) to create a truly awful job market.

Government research labs tend to have decent cultures, but it seems like the replacement of old, decent noblesse oblige companies by new-style psychotic McKinsey-esque startup-culture ones is complete. What I've heard is that places like Google X are ultra-political (which isn't surprising, because all FAANGs are nasty places run by nasty people). I've had decent R&D jobs; the problem is that they're unstable. You are a resource to be pulled into someone else's war.
I almost always add "," in cmd.exe to anything I run from Windows Command Prompt? Why? Because cygwin, or mingw's `dir.exe` would be called instead of built-in dir (well, this is further complicated that I don't really use `cmd.exe` but FAR Commander), so if I want to enforce the built-in over external (same name) command I have to prepend it with "," - so I basically started typing "," in front of each of my commands...
That makes sense, thanks for clearing it up!

It's just a sale of a licence.

If I'm a Domino's franchisee, and I pay Domino's a different commission for an order placed online vs a customer walking into the store, the pizza isn't in a state of quantum superposition - that's just making a simple concept overly complex by incorrectly throwing quantum words at it. The concept is just that different things have different prices in the master agreement.

If I'm a movie theatre that happens to sell a DVD of the same movie, when a customer comes in they also aren't in a shrodingers-cat quantum dilemma superposition state, it's just the simple idea that different things have different prices and different compensation structures for artists.
The video shows them putting in trash, and that it fits about a pallet of cardboard. It also says it gets to 1200 degrees, much less than the 1800-2000 degrees required to incinerate a human.

> That getting rid of corpses at scale is a problem they pay substantial attention to.

Yes, because again, they are probably the only military in the world engaged in conventional, symmetrical combat at their scale. Advanced nations like the US will just drop a bomb on a peasant wedding in Baluchistan and let the locals do the clean up. It's much more efficient, and as a bonus, provides a great boost to the local funerary economy as well.
They wouldn't be able too. It's a great job for a high school kid or one with a low IQ that has limited options to start with. But it should be temporary to teach you how to be responsible, show up on time, do your job correctly, etc.
Good points.

I have not studied the roots of "hard core socialism" deeply enough to understand where this uniformity comes from. Taking a vary casual glance at Marx, it doesn't seem to be there. He seemed to be arguing for collective ownership and an eventual slide towards "cooperative anarchy" - a conscious balance or dialog between collective and individual desire. It's really hard for me to see where the rigid conformity came from. In other venues, we see rigid conformity tied to hierarchy (military, strict schools).. all venues that tend to have figurehead leaders, and disempowered individuals rather than collective empowerment.
> I've never really understood why citizens in the US aren't allowed these items, if the fundamental purpose of the 2nd Amendment is to allow the citizenry to fight tyranny then why aren't the citizens allowed the appropriate arms to do so?

That's because it isn't actually the fundamental purpose. It was written at a time where the country didn't have a permanent standing army. That's why the amendment starts with "A well regulated Militia, being necessary to the security of a free State..."

> it seems like there are perfectly impressive pictures of actual Ziggurats: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ziggurat

Well, that might be true, but if there are they don't appear on that page. We see a ziggurat that is still underground, a sketch of a ziggurat, a ziggurat that has been reconstructed in modern times, a model of a ziggurat, the back wall of a ziggurat (that is otherwise still underground), and a rather different-looking building from the 1970s which is apparently inspired by ziggurats.

The reconstructed Ziggurat of Ur is very impressive indeed, but it's understandable that the article might have wanted a picture of an ancient structure rather than a modern reconstruction.
I would love to! I haven't thought about the best way to approach it yet but would love to have collaborators.

That's silly. Our mobile service tech happily recommended a local shop when I asked who he uses. Some of the Tesla service departments will encourage you to use local tire shops for routine tire work, too, as it reduces the load on them.

A bigger issue is that some shops don't like to deal with the risks of lifting a car with a battery. Poor lift procedures can cost them a lot of money, and some avoid the liability. Most have reported success with Discount Tire, Costco, and other normal shops, though.
