A few last thoughts: NJ can be pretty expensive. My family there spent more per month on property taxes than I spent in a year on mortgage, property tax, and insurance combined on a larger home in SC. I’m not sure if you have a choice in what city you are choosing, but if you do, it pays to shop around, so to speak.

If you’re willing to forego freelancing there are some great remote-first companies that will pay you well. Elastic is an absolutely amazing place to work, and they have a decent German cohort, too.
Unfortunately, this is now apparently behind a sign-up wall but for a counterpoint:

"The Elements of Style does not deserve the enormous esteem in which it is held by American college graduates. Its advice ranges from limp platitudes to inconsistent nonsense. Its enormous influence has not improved American students’ grasp of English grammar; it has significantly degraded it."

Probably a more brutal takedown than deserved but I'm not at all sure it's wrong.
No, a state cannot punish you for something you did in another state.

To renounce your state citizenship (there is no such thing really, it’s called residence) you move and take an address in another state. After some time, usually 6 months, you now legally live in the new state.
And yet the precedent could now become, "You've just suffered a miscarriage. We are now going to conduct a hostile, invasive investigation wherein you must prove you didn't cause the miscarriage intentionally in order to have it aborted, or unintentionally cause it through neglect."

This will be a repeat of caregivers prosecuted for children dying from SIDS under their watch, with the underlying message that it must have been something you did, and you need to be punished for it.

Considering the opinions here [1] and the fact that Microsoft’s lawyers even signed off on something as seemingly risky as Copilot, it seems very likely that courts will not find Copilot to infringe on copyright.

I encourage you to read the linked article and respond to the authors instead of making me argue their case for them!

Hi,

Thank you for the support! :)

1. The deletion of published data is thankfully not something that commonly happens, but it is not against the rules of the NCBI database. Scientists who deposit their data into the database have the right to ask for that data to be taken down even if it has been published. That's why there is a concern that some scientists may have used this mechanism to delete original data with early Covid-19 sequences in it. Some scientists have called for NCBI to please allow them to search through deleted or suppressed data for these early Covid-19 sequences, but they have not been granted permission. Please see Vanity Fair's report on this: https://www.vanityfair.com/news/2022/03/the-virus-hunting-no...

2. I have seen an archived version of that job posting but, like you said, it didn't surprise me that they were looking for more coronavirologists - the Wuhan Institute of Virology does have one of the world's largest (if not the largest) bat coronavirus hunting programs. The website being revamped kind of goes into speculative territory - maybe it was just time to upgrade the site or maybe they did it to avoid negative attention. The more disturbing thing to me is that they did not share their pathogen database (taken offline in Sep 2019) despite a pandemic happening. The database was meant to help inform pandemic response, but when a real pandemic happened, the database could not be found anywhere. None of their collaborators, including in the US, have seemed to be able to provide a copy.
a “3 day raise” can mean many things, imagine something like this: 2-3 strategic angel investors already in place; prior to “starting fundraising” is a 1 month period of pitch discovery during which your angels are introducing you to investors but you are “not fundraising yet”; during this period investors start asking to invest but you are “not fundraising yet”; once you hit like $500k in interest, you email all the investors you’re already talking to and say “i’m fundraising now and already have $500k in interest for a 1.5M round” and one seed fund takes the remaining $1M and you’re done (the three days is for diligence). or 4 famous angels follow with $250k checks and you’re done. it’s an orchestrated process
Could you expound on why you don’t use encapsulation? I get the criticism against inheritance but encapsulation seems like good practice—it’s systematically making it impossible to introduce bugs by disallowing clients of the code to see and misuse details that they should not be seeing/misusing.

Because they're not meant to be pregnant and their parents will get mad? And the decision between a risky abortion or my life turning upside down looks very different in that situation?
can't the president pardon anyone who is criminalized about abortion?
On top of my head:

* There is something wrong with the child, due to which any semblance happy and fulfilled life will never be possible

* The child is a product of an unwanted and traumatic sexual contact

* The mother knows she can't support the child and will end up raising it on the street - until she can't any more
A modern discussion on the difference between data and information
I don’t think this is as big of a deal as people are presenting because I think there are already a lot of people who know you are pregnant from your data than period tracking.

This makes me think of the story of Target[1] knowing when people were pregnant. I think there are a lot of other companies that it will come out are figuring out who is pregnant that will demonstrate the depth of surveillance of the surveillance economy.

Back in the good old days, forums typically heavily restricted self-promotion (even more so when it’s for commercial gain). Constantly shilling for your own website/Twitter/etc would end up earning you a ban.

I don’t understand why these social media platforms don’t enforce the same. Not only will this discourage this kind of crap but it would also benefit them as it would avoid people driving traffic away from the site (or having to pay for a paid commercial plan in order to do so).
These days when I have to use svn somewhere I use git as a client, because it works better for me.

If you prefer you can use mercurial as a git client in the same way.

Most of my git use stays local on my PC, uploading it to github or gitlab or whatever is a secondary concern for me.

I am very happy to see the starting to think about and gather the community around this novel issue. This sheds a new light on existing IP laws.

It's pretty obvious that without the open source code corpus, such tool would not have been possible, hence the (IMHO) justified derivative work question.
Companies and individuals have spent decades building this open corpus and in exchange they deserve to have their will (aka license) respected. For a significant fraction of those, it means sharing the derivative works under the same license.

It's pretty sad, though not surprising to many of us, to see that Microsoft isn't really playing openly and nicely with the FOSS community about those issues.

When people started saying Microsoft had changed and was a fair player now, I had my doubts, and this doesn't help.

I should hope not. Not everything works first time. Hopefully it gives data such that the next one works for 16 weeks, and the one after that for 3 months, until this is a standard source of transplant organs.
Exactly. The competence is in knowing which questions to ask. That knowledge comes from a deep and intimate understanding as to not only how you (the individual) goes about solving problems, but how human beings in general approach problems. Then add in that you have to know how people (again, in general) react to learning they were wrong, how people make and change habits, etc.

It's basically translating from systems-thinking to chaos ape.
Big if true. If this is real, is it the first confirmed malicious use of realtime interactive video deepfake?
There are several sites like this including Hashnode, medium, tealfeed, etc. They all suffer from the same problem.

Medium solved this with publications. Others solved it by tagging, moderation etc. although that's not ideal either.
Show HN: Program a simple game in a simple language and run it on the smartphone
For me the iPad feels too constricting when you want to do anything other than consume content.

But I think that's just because I'm accustomed to having direct access to files and filesystems, and the extra later of abstraction (already necessary to visually translate a filesystem) just becomes bothersome.

E.g. I still need to cd and ls in a very primitive and visceral way, feel my way around the warren like a mole so to speak, even if I can just click/tap on a screen or C-x C-f.

Probably how the mind gets wired with basic text UIs like the DOS and Unix command lines, before you get to stuff like Midnight Commander.

Pretty weird, if you ask me, as that's more of a verbal and less than a visual way of interacting with the system, while I'm an otherwise visual person.
Kavanaugh also said that Roe v Wade was settled law.
you know that saying it's a flawed argument without providing reasons or an argument of your own doesn't make it a flawed argument?
In principle, that's legal in much of the developed world (with various restrictions in place). But it simply never happens, as there's no practical way to abort a pregnancy that close to term without severely harming the mother (which would be criminal). Abortions in the 3rd trimester are a tiny % of the total (typically < 1%), and I can't find any reliable account of one occurring after 28 weeks or so. Seems to me the sensible cut off for when abortion becomes criminal is the point at which it simply can't be done safely.

For the specific topic of cryptography: every professional cryptographer I know not only started with a master in mathematics, but completed it with a PhD in cryptography afterwards. Trying to do it professionally with neither diplomas feels like a non-starter to me.

Of course, that doesn't mean you can't study the field on your own for the sake of knowledge. And it will certainly make you a better infosec professionnal, whatever subfield you want to specialize in.

Also, keep in mind there are maybe 1000 people working in information security for 1 person working as a professional cryptographer. Cryptography is a bit tricky, but information security is a broad field with many interesting things to do.
Well firstly, let’s stop spreading misinformation that abortion is inherently risky. Abortion is a safe practice, and medically induced abortion can occur at home. It’s safer than many routine procedures!

Secondly, there is an uncountable number of reasons to have an abortion rather than carrying to term. I don’t know which reasons will meet your personal bar of acceptable, but we are talking about rape victims, children, mothers who cannot afford time off because there is minimal maternity leave and they need to provide for their already born kids, professionals who are building their careers, trans men with gender dysphoria, ectopic pregnancy, high-risk pregnancy, cannot afford to stop psychological medication that hasn’t been approved for pregnancy…

Why would the failure of one extremely experimental transplant put a damper on subsequent extremely experimental transplants?

Is the idea that they should have it all worked out before they even try it?
The US does a generally poor job of being family-friendly. US parents are generally much more stressed out than, say, European parents because the system here tends to say "Fuck you. You chose to have that baby. Raising it is your damn problem."

If she got pregnant out of wedlock, it's vastly worse.
Katapayadi system has also been used to construct tables of related entries whereby the position of an entry in the table (its row and column) completely determines its properties. See, for example, the paragraphs on 'Carnatic Music' in the wikipedia entry for the katapayadi system. This Carnatic Music arrangement dates to the 17th century.

Our system is not that simple either.

- you have mandatory health insurance which is a percentage of your income

- you have an extra insurance (called mutuelle) which you may not have if you are not salaried (but that you get anyway), or it may be compulsory if you are salaried.

Doctors can be in one of the two groups: 1 or 2. 1 means that your costs are fixed and regulated by law. This is for instance 25€ for a general/family doctor visit. n% of this is reimbursed by the compulsory insurance, and the other one reimburses the rest. n depends on the medical act - for instance for the visit to the MD n=70.

The group 2 fixes their prices as they wish. This is usually for specialists (but not always, there are plenty of specialists that are in the group 1)

The extra insurance covers up to M times the regular cost. M depends on the act and on the insurance.

Generally speaking - the more serious the act, the more you are reimbursed. A heart operation will be free no matter what, but something simple may cost a lot (more that the extra coverage). It is very rare, though, to go over that extra coverage.

Dental is not covered very well - it is OK for small things but implants fo instance are notoriously expensibve (you may pay, say, 1000€ out of 6000€). So is optical (you can always get glasses for free but they will not be the best ones).
I'd argue the opposite - that the model was so good and so much better than anything else that it was adopted despite the UI/UX flaws. Things can be good, have a flaw and still be considered good. That doesn't mean that we pretend the flaw doesn't exist.
> Hard disagree. The skillsets for writing and programming are largely orthogonal. The fact you're a programmer who finds writing difficult means nothing in regard to the relative difficulty of each skill.

How do you survive code reviews with poor writing?

I insist on well-documented code because conveying intent and purpose of code is extremely important.

That often requires decent writing skills.
The argument that it's not a big deal because you can also get arrested through all other sorts of invasive tracking isn't really that strong.
`git commit --amend :x` is faster to type, stopped using the --no-edit flag once I realized this.
Underground abortion access is already a robust infrastructure in red states. Please don’t forget that abortion has already been heavily chipped away at, with only single digit clinics in massive red states like Texas.
It is pretty well know how _expensive_ it is to birth and raise a child in the U.S.

$5,000-$10,000 in medical bills to birth them.
Another $200,000-$500,000 to get them to 18.

It's imaginable some might want to avoid having a child for the cost savings alone.

I honestly don’t understand the context around this comment or how it relates to the article
I think the possible federal ban on abortion is something that is not taken into account enough right now. The odds that Republicans will have the relevant majorities in 2024 are pretty high. The inflation and the consequences from the Ukraine war are not Biden's fault, but voters usually punish the current administration for everything that goes wrong.
I can't fathom the idea that you don't know what the person you're replying to is trying to say. I think the more likely scenario is that you disagree and are trying to invite debate. If you want to do, feel free, it's no worse a derail than the entire thread is, but let's dispense with the coy tedium.

The main problem is that even in the field among experts, ethics has extremely low priority. It's shallow not because of laypersons, but because experts don't think ethics are worth thinking about.
My inference from nature supported a non-moral point, namely "[abortion is] going to be with us until the end of time, regardless of law."

As for my moral argument, I invite you to read about the history of abortion, the history of abolition, and/or the history of America's war on drugs. I expect you will find abolition the easiest example to grok, since it's no longer a political issue. Note the moral arguments for abolition still stand, and yet it's no longer law.
That's really interesting, because the first thing that came to mind was the rhythmic syllables used in carnatic music, and borrowed from there for western use in takadimi. I don't know if mnemonic devices like this are more common in Indian culture or not.
That still doesn't explain it.

I read the text, not all of it, but at least the most important bits. Then I went to https://www.senate.gov/civics/constitution_item/constitution... and did a Ctrl-F for "abortion" and found nothing, so the reasoning checks out. It seems perfectly justified to roll back Roe v. Wade, regardless of what your position on abortion as a nationwide right is. This is what I struggle to understand about the outrage over Dobbs v. Jackson.

No, the president can only pardon federal crimes.
Fetal death in those cases corresponds (or ought to correspond) to a projection of the actual victim’s wishes: harm to the fetus is exactly coextensive with harm to the pregnant person’s future plans for it.
You can bet the highest priority will be to Goldman, with anyone else coming after.
The president can only pardon federal crimes. The laws being broken are state laws.
Right. and women are forced to wear burkas in some countries.

it's a slippery slope and out of scope of what government should be regulating if one views bodily autonomy as important.
To me that's the beauty of the United States and the republic that we live in. If Oklahoma has laws and rules that you think are outrageous then move to a different state. On top of even that, if things are just too outrageous here to stand, then move out of the country, like all the media and celebrities that claimed they would move to Canada if and when certain people were elected.
