> The Hebrew word translated into ‘awe’ in the Bible is yirah (יראה, pronounced yir-ah). It often directly translates into fear, like “fear of the Lord,” but it can also mean respect, reverence, and worship.

Racism is back? Are you seriously implying that racism went away in the first place?
I love the movie. And I enjoyed the book many years later. But they are completely different. The book has an atmosphere of 1950 dry, dusty, empty suburbia and deals a lot with the status of owning real pets and what real really means.

The movie is literary much darker and takes place in a claustrophobic decaying chaos of a enormous city. I has the slow pace of a 1940th film noir and while the theme of what real really entails is central, it just one part in the whole vision.
MINIX also makes that claim by virtue of running on the Intel ME.
Which ones did it deliver on? Faster than C? No. A memory-safe language that you can write OSes and drivers in? No. Pleasant cross-platform GUIs? No. Easy code reuse? No. Low code development by using XML? No. Not needing generics? No. Checked exceptions being a good idea? No. More understandable code by using classes instead of lambdas? Hell no.

Java more or less got "write once, run anywhere" working, I'll give them that (although I still see programs that e.g. use a hardcoded path separator, they're the exception rather than the rule). But it's hard to see anything that it really delivered on in terms of working better than e.g. OCaml.
Oh, I don't know. My respect for Cruise has gone up quite a bit. The MI series is formulaic but he does put a lot of effort and soul into his work. Top Gun was a slap in the face to formula films. Some of his smaller projects (like Jack Reacher) were fun to watch too. Collateral is an underrated classic though.

Oppression is very natural: the moral value of "nature" is quite complex, so it seems inaccurate to say that oppression equates with evil, or badness, although certainly it does in many contemporary political cultures. This is a sign of the shallowness of these political cultures, their tendency to think in polarized/binary ways. You are doing that here too, with your question about whether managers are 'always bad' -- that isn't the question, managerialism is an oppressive/violent system of rule and domination that emerged, that became dominant, and that hides itself. It hides itself because people have a hard time grasping complex historical systems. They want to moralize them, either from anti or pro positions. Such moralizing doesn't accomplish very much. Surely I am guilty of it as well, too, but seek to be aware of my own moralisms, which your comments have helped with. Thank you!
None taken, and thank you; I've bookmarked the courses and will do them in the near future when ample time's available to me :)

Here's an example of a UI that makes me uneasy: https://i.imgur.com/MSay6jF.png

Self-critiquing:

- I loved the colours in isolation: the h1 (blue gradient) and h2 (purple gradient) look great with not too much else going on, but I feel with the reddish logo and blue button it gets a bit much.

- Why did I have to colour the plan options? (my amateur brain still says: if you can try to make it look pretty, you should, which ends up overly ornate).

- I think the radio buttons not aligning with the plans bothers me the most (that's easily detectable and fixed though, even by me).

- I feel as though if I were a user of the app, I wouldn't think it was very professional. I can't figure out why though.

About the app: It lets home occupants do smoke alarm checks remotely, rather than having to book someone to come and check them. I am undecided whether the app should have a "tech" look and feel, or a "tradesperson" look and feel. Perhaps I should consider that more deeply before trying to design it.

I should also mention, I've taken some very short UX courses, and feel okay about UX, and I can implement most basic design patterns in a technical sense (e.g. spacing, colouring, responsiveness, sizing) - my main struggle is making it look professional.
Because I'd have recourse for getting a fake if there were traceability.
This article get Star Trek, barely right.

First of all, they're based on the Horatio Hornblower novels-- they're basically those in space.

Second of all, Star Trek, the core before it lost its way (Enterprise and anything after it) is about aging. Either intentionally or unintentionally.

TOS, and TNG, both have a space alien telling humanity to stay home. In "The Cage" which is literally called The Cage (metaphor for not advancing), the telepathic aliens warn humanity about the dangers of space, while sheltering (parenting) a disfigured human woman. In my theory, this is the adolescent humanity.

In TNG, literally, a race called the Q warns humanity to stay home, we defy him and suffer through our teenage years straining against a well meaning but no longer welcome parental figure.

DS9 and Voyager, to me doubly so since they ran concurrently, are about middle to late age. DS9 a younger middle age where you're still in your prime but you have children now you have to think about and there are hard decisions to be made.

Voyager, because it starts with literally, "The Caretaker" dying (parents) and deals mostly with spirituality and ethics, and in my theory is placed later in life.

*This is my theory and my theory alone. I will take all shit :-)

So what's wrong with the new Star Trek? It's not liberalism, it's not lack of liberalism it's the same thing wrong with Star Wars and a lot of other entertainment out there-- its not GOOD.

The entertainment industry has lost and idea of subtlety or complexity. If TNG offered me loving viewpoints that were beyond their time ad now and then preachy (the trans episode for instance--where Riker falls for an alien who doesn't have a clear sex)... things like Discovery and Brave New Worlds just bludgeon you with bullshit, and then when you don't like the mess they're serving you-- they blame you for that.

I'd point to the Captain America debacle as the exemplar of this-- Brie Larson tells everyone the movie is for little girls (this was a deeply narcissistic, cynical and most of all dishonest viewpoint) and literally said she didn't care what 40 year old men thought about her movie and it "wasn't for them." Then she demonizes the same demographic for not showing up to see the movie she told them not to see.

We're in a weird growing-pains stages of society. I am a card carrying, Bernie Sanders progressive, and I can't tolerate most of this bullshit.
I am not sure. I think it’s hard to tell if that would happen. A lot of low carb and keto processed foods on the market today are normally very high fibre and are more convenient to consume than making low carb meals at home which would have a reduction of fibre in comparison.

However, I personally cannot eat fibrous foods. I’ve had to cut that completely out as a result of the damage fibre has done to my bowels after years “healthy” eating.

I am not alone in this either as there was even a clinical trial that studied the effects of fibre on patients with idiopathic constipation and the results were highly statistically significant in that it showed causation between the consumption of fibre and increased risk of bowel related illnesses. This is not an epidemiological study either that only shows correlation! https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3435786/

This makes me wonder if reinforcement learning is computing counterfactuals and learning causal relationships. I don't think the math supports that, but the end result is similar.
Are you implying that there isn't nuance in diet from person to person? i.e. low-carb diets works for everyone?

Oil in cars and cancer treatments you don't really have choices but there are many choices for diets. On top of that, in my experience some people's bodies have different affinities or intolerances (i.e. lactose intolerance). I feel like I agree with the original sentiment that diets can vary from person to person.

Am I wrong, though?

LV is mostly gravel in its “natural state”. They even export the stuff. It’s really a lot like a naturally cleared plot of land with no uses outside of modern tech. (Modern tech includes a lot of water recycling and choosing plants suitable to the desert.)

I saw it actively push out any business not gambling too. So pointing at the golf courses and casino tourist attractions as waste of water is probably a waste of time.

That is the eternal question. However, I will submit for consideration that the person we're talking about when we use the phrase "punch a Nazi" is, in fact, a neo-Nazi[1].

Dealing more abstractly: I personally think we are justified in practicing "preemptive intolerance" when the party in question (1) has a bad faith (not merely faithless) relationship with the "language" of our political systems, and (2) demonstrates repeated intent to employ the mechanisms of our systems to subvert them. Both conditions are necessary; the absence of the latter makes the individual a LARPer.

What's interesting is that the Ruble trades 50% higher (in USD) than before Russia's invasion of Ukraine.

Why is that?

Shouldn't the value of a currency reflect two things, the strength of a nation's economy and the soundness of the currency?

The strength of the Russian economy surely went down, right?

So it can only be due to the soundness. The market seems to expect Russia will not expand the Ruble supply more than the USA will expand the Dollar supply?
I've never heard this theory before, but it makes sense. Can someone corroberate or expand on this point please?

If it's true, the implications for art are pretty worrisome in a globalized marketplace.
Thanks for the correction. So some coronaviruses have been found in nature in Hubei, but surely in rural areas correct? Why would the center of a dense city like Wuhan be the epicenter for an outbreak (according to the official story a wet market that contained no bats walking distance from the Wuhan laboratory), and not an area where bats exist?

The short answer is an attempt at price fixing by the Russian government. You won't be able to get as many USD, say, as the official exchange rate claims. But if a Russian owes you USD, the Russian government considers the debt paid if they send you rubles at the posted rate.

It's really not a lot to grok, at least by most other language's standards.

PHP has a long history of doing things in a "right way" that subscribes to copying whatever one language is doing for 5 years. It first did things the C way, then the Java way, then got inspired by Ruby and Javascript, etc. The features are there, but executed in very awkward ways.

Ruby as a language explicitly blesses many ways to do the same thing.

Every new release in C# seems to bring in as many features as you'd get in 4 or 5 major Python or Java releases.

I look at the Python I wrote 8 years ago and it's _fine_. Even Python 2.6 code written with large frameworks looks similar enough to modern Python. The same can't be said for Javascript, Java (Java's best practices have changed a lot since then), C++, or C#.
Coming from the other direction, I've hired for DevOps roles a couple times and as a hiring manager one of my very first first questions to a candidate is to ask them to define DevOps, then ask them to define their previous role(s) against that ideal because DevOps is so broadly used as a title.

It's a great question because it finds misalignment rapidly. Post a job for DevOps and you'll get everything from old-school sysadmins to software developers of all flavors to AWS Certified Somethings applying.

I found this interesting, thank you. I am familiar with Von Neumann's reputation as a genius but haven't read much about his life. A few biographies of him are on my to-read list. Do you know which ones have more detail on this portion of his life and his thoughts on time?

From studying other historical figures, this phenomenon of "dying before the Great Work is done" seems to be a common theme. Alexander, Caesar, and Nietzsche come to mind.

I'm not sure what to make of it. On the one hand, most such figures still end up being influential, so if your goal is to be remembered by others, you mostly just need to do something important, at some point in your life.

On the other hand, if you feel that the most important part of your work is continually being pushed to "some point in the future", then it would be fruitful to take a step back and figure out how to minimize the "not really important work" (running government agencies in Von Neumann's case.)

On a society-wide scale, I think there are quite a few adjustments that I wish would be implemented to minimize this "wasted administrative time." Things like waiting in traffic and cities oriented toward cars, software that is designed to be addictive, and so on.
> In late February, following the ruble's initial tumble and four days after the invasion of Ukraine began on Feb 24, Russia more than doubled the country's key interest rate to a whopping 20% from a prior 9.5%. Since then, the currency's value has improved to the point that it's lowered the interest rate three times to reach 11% in late May.

> Russia is the world's largest exporter of gas and the second-largest exporter of oil. Its primary customer? The European Union, which has been buying billions of dollars worth of Russian energy per week while simultaneously trying to punish it with sanctions. That's put the EU in an awkward spot – it has now sent exponentially more money to Russia in oil, gas and coal purchases than it has sent Ukraine in aid, which has helped fill the Kremlin's war chest. And with Brent crude prices 60% higher than they were this time last year, even though many Western countries have curbed their Russian oil buying, Moscow is still making a record profit.

It’s more complicated than those blurbs though. Also while the ruble may be artificially strong it doesn’t mean everything is going great in Russia, far from it.

> Are you implying that there isn't nuance in diet from person to person?

Obviously they aren't "implying" any of that. But you know that and hence you made up this ridiculous straw man. So, yes, you are wrong and dishonest.
There are severe restrictions on exchanging or trading rubles, and Russian companies that receive foreign currencies are forced to convert 80% of it to rubles (I assume this is still in effect, I haven't looked for newer information here). So I don't think we know how the ruble would look like if you could freely trade it, right now the price is not determined by a free market.
For me time restricted eating with high protein intake from beans and tofu and a lot of vegetables+seeds did the thing. I guess there are more ways to achieve the same goal. Some diets are healthier some are not, but i don't think there should be only one approved by fda or any other organization
Space = gravity, time = entropy ?
What modern mainstream language is smaller than Python? Ruby? Javascript? Go is surely smaller but then your library surface area as well as code since increase correspondingly.
Problem with buttons is that, unless you design things carefully it might be too easy to press the wrong button and go the wrong way.

Newer Hondas do come with button shifters that seem to be well thought out. It's hard to describe in words, but every button has a distinct deliberate and intuitive action such that you're unlikely to shift to the wrong gear:

- Can shift to P or R iff the brake is pressed.

- R is a pull-type button which is different from all other gear buttons.

- N is, well, an unremarkable button.

- D is at the bottom in a separate recess.
Shouldn't Russia sending Rubles instead of Dollars to pay USD denominated debt decrease the value of the Ruble?

Additional supply -> Lower price.
And yet there was that girl which went on a chocolate diet and lived just fine. It was a publicity stunt, but does kinda show that depending on your body, it might not matter anyway.
I've never met a progressive who "denounced all argument" about immigration. Instead, they seem tired of the same handful of (xenophobic) tropes that get trotted out during national discussions around immigration policy: immigrants as social burdens, as criminals, as drug mules, as "anchors" for some dogwhistled demographic replacement, &c.

Those tropes (and the reactionary politics that underlie them) strike me as precisely the kind of intolerance that Popper might have concerned himself with.

(Separately: it's unclear how progressives have satisfied the "intolerance of intolerance" condition here. Are you claiming that progressives have successfully won some on that front of the culture war? Current policy suggests otherwise[1].)

> Critical supply chains in Russia have been shattered. Hundreds of Western companies have pulled out of the country. Export sanctions have strangled Russia's access to essential technology and components necessary for entire industrial sectors. Tank factories have shut down. Missile manufacturers are scrambling for critical components and parts. An economy projected to grow in 2022 is now on a path to contract by as much as 15%.

> In rare moments of candor, some Russian officials have provided glimpses into the economic damage taking hold. ¶ Russian Minister of Transport Vitaly Savelyev said in May that the sanctions "have practically broken all the logistics in our country." ¶ Russia is by no means the first country that's been sanctioned by the US. But compared with North Korea, Venezuela or Iran, it is far more integrated into the global economy, which has made this latest round of sanctions all the more destructive. ¶ "I think that's what people are missing -- the fact that Russia has to rip apart 30 years of integration into the global economy," said Elina Ribakova, the deputy chief economist at the Institute of International Finance.

I don't use typing with type checkers; I use it to remind readers of my code what types my functions take whenever that's not immediately obvious.

The history of Python means that coders make functions whose return is usually quite clear, but when it's not, I'm really glad I have typing.

Also, some libraries like Pydantic make use of types in a very clever and productive way.
