The article mentions salt only twice, and sort of looks down on canning (aka, pasteurization), but the fact is that before refrigeration and pasteurization, salt was pretty essential for the long-term preseveration of many foodstuffs, from fish and meat to fruits and vegetables. People who try to do fermentations without adding the necessary salt (which allows the lactobaccillus type strains to win the microbial competition) end up with rotting gunk. A lot of online fermentation guides gloss over this, but that's why salt was such a valuable trading commodity in the past.

Another common claim is you shouldn't use iodized salt - this is apparently a myth as this article discusses, and that way you don't get iodine deficiency:

And as far as this line in the article:

Stir up to three times a day, preferably with your hands: get those skin microorganisms in there.

I'm going to vote strongly against this mentality, because there's something called the fecal-oral contamination route which modern microbiology has discovered, and which we don't need to encourage. If you want starter culture, go to a store, buy some raw fermented whatever from a reputable supplier, and use a little bit of that instead - while wearing those blue food-service gloves. Come on...
You design the complete system so it does not have dependencies on a single component, that way each subsystem can have proper maintenance schedules. It takes a lot more up-front work, along with defining what levels of service degradation are acceptable during a window, but that's the difference between a professionally run service and one run by amateurs. Look up Google's SRE methodology and their concept of error budget.
I read his book, Fossil Future, and found it quite convincing. Also agree with Peter Thiel’s political stance which is horribly smeared and mischaracterized by media as Fascist.

So if your rebuttal starts out with smearing of the character instead of refuting the points, it just further’s the credibility of Alex Epstein.

Climate alarmicism leaves no option to engage in criticism. There is no room left. It just shows how deranged it has gotten. There are a lot of lunatics that deny climate change, but Alex takes a data-based approach and advocates that we improve human flourishing, and solve the problem of CC.

Highly recommend his Google Talk to anyone that wants to see how sloppy some of the Climate alarmicism has gotten: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s6b7K1hjZk4

I'm pretty sure they are right, but that doesn't mean that using code generated by copilot is though. Like fair use allows Google to index images and expose them in Google Image, but using an image found there elsewhere is almost always copyright infringement (unless you're lucky and the image was in the public domain).

Not a lawyer though.

Then 90% of people don't get crypto or don't care. Which seems to be true. They just keep it in their coinbase or robinhood account and wait for the price to go (back) up until they sell.

I think they are saying the training part itself doesn’t.

It seems to be kind of a fine point, otherwise you could implement a license laundering AI by training it on a single codebase and asking it questions about it. If you end up with a byte by byte replica sans a LICENSE file presumably you wouldn’t get away with actually _using_ the model to clone licensed software even if training it was technically ok.

First commit 2 months ago, started with edition 2021. https://hg.sr.ht/~cyplo/legdur/browse/Cargo.toml?rev=ca11815...

Have you tried compiling something less than bleeding edge, with a year old compiler, or are you picking projects specifically to "showcase" the supposed failings of the Rust compiler?

Many libraries in the ecosystem have a MSRV (minimum support rust version) guarantee, with compile-time shims to enable newer features if a more recent version is detected.

You can pin your dependencies to those versions (and if they don't have an explicit MSRV, just pin it to a version by date or by running https://github.com/foresterre/cargo-msrv on the project to find the effective MSRV).

You can cargo install specific versions of a binary crate, and if they move to the 2021 edition, or use a recently stabilized standard library function or w/e, you can simply choose to install a specific version, that would work with your distro's rustc/cargo.

I'm not even talking about the completely valid, but last resort strategy of many non-bleeding edge distro package maintainers, of simply creating a .patch file and applying it. In legdur's case, --- edition = "2021" +++ edition = "2018" on Cargo.toml would probably do the trick. For libraries/binaries you control, you can use https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/overriding-depende... and https://github.com/itmettkeDE/cargo-patch.

Giving up after the first minor roadblock and crying bloody murder is intellectually lazy.

That's a good point. This filter is probably both insufficient and too limiting.
How does it compare to Bubblewrap? I tried it to test Windows software that I don't trust under WINE and it worked, but a few times the sandboxed program wouldn't work although it would when run under a non networked machine, so I thought the sandboxing was also affecting Unix sockets, that is, IPC.

Command used was: "bwrap --bind / / --dev /dev --unshare-net -- exe_name"
It's all but forgotten now, but the early statements that Minecraft was going to be released as open-source really hint towards what might have been, and the magnitude of what was lost:

"Once sales start dying and a minimum time has passed, I will release the game source code as some kind of open source. I'm not very happy with the draconian nature of (L)GPL, nor do I believe the other licenses have much merit other than to boost the egos of the original authors, so I might just possibly release it all as public domain."

I got a Dell XPS 13 in 2013 and loved it so much I decided to only buy Dell laptops from then on. It lasted four years and I only upgraded because I wanted something with better specs. I'm not sure how many computers I've had since then but I typically have 3 - 4 at any given time for various purposes. I got a pair of nice HP machines around 2015 and tried a couple Chromebooks but have otherwise stuck with Dell. Then in 2021 around June I decided to go high-end for my daily driver. Got a $2100 laptop from Dell and was very pleased with it until December. It was on my bed reading and had the computer playing some music on YouTube. I glanced over at the screen and saw it flicker. Concerned, I reached for the computer and before I touched it the screen went black. The computer never started again. I bought the same model with slightly more SSD space to replace it. That one died the same way after less than 48 hours. Because I install Linux on my computers I expect the warranty was voided so all I could do was swear off of ever purchasing a Dell again. Currently satisfied with a much cheaper HP. It's not ideal but I can get my work done.

I think your analogy is a bit reductionist. The difference between git and a wrench is that the wrench presents almost all of its intended uses. I can quite confidently say that most people will understand it within a few minutes.

Git is like CSS in the sense that for experienced users will sometimes forget the difficult learning process they went through, e.g. "oh use margin auto to centre the div"

I've been there, finding git too hard and giving up, but I've came back to it and eventually got past that uncomfortable learning bump.

This is something I don't understand, not just about Copilot but for many NN generators: the outputs sometimes seem like an obvious ripoff of something, that no way it qualify as a novel work, although I can't prove it.

A lot of comments seem to (correctly) focus on the fact that this does not appear to cover anywhere near 90% of Bloomberg's data. So I'd just like to throw out that this still looks really useful! Just not sure who'd be paying $99/month for that, as a retail trader it's really hard to quantify your personal ROI for such data (that is freely available anyway). But good luck to you!
> We provide 100 percent uptime, 100 percent of the time.

I know what you mean in relation to that point, but 100% uptime isn't realistic so I'd be careful with calling it that. There's a reason Amazon and other big companies only provide several nines of uptime guarantees.

> When I pulled up at a stoplight waiting for the light to change, I would instinctively reached for my phone (mounted on my dash) to check my email (personal + work), check ESPN, look up something on Amazon, etc. While pumping gas in the car, I’d whip out my phone while waiting. Stuck in line somewhere? Time for my phone. Waiting in an elevator? The phone. Riding the train? The phone. Going to the bathroom? Make sure to bring the phone! Eating breakfast? The phone. Any spare or idle moment? The phone

This describes every single person I know under the age of 25, and I'm in that demographic. It must be the single greatest public health experiment of all time.

The crazy part is, not one single person I know thinks of it as a bad thing. They just seem to accept it as part of life, which makes me feel so alienated whenever interacting with them, since I am hardly ever using my phone (the computer on the other hand...)
Honestly, I’m skeptical that Bloomberg chat is really going to add much value to a random individual who springs for a Bloomberg terminal.

If you’re a bond trader at some bank and all the other bond traders are chatting on Bloomberg, you’re missing out. But they’re not going to chat with me even if I got myself a Bloomberg terminal.
No, HackerNews devs are "wrong" in ignoring mobile users, which are probably a non-insignificant amount.
Words (or in their case, characters & the concepts) partially define culture, though. If you don't have an easy word for something, whether it's a personality or a color, it's a foreign idea to you. Sure, someone can translate it for you and tell you what it means, but it's not the same as having it be a part of your culture. Someone can explain "tea time" to me, but as an American, it will always be a Britishism even though I understand the concepts of tea and gathering and hours. It's just not a part of my cultural existence.

FWIW, anecdotally, I grew up in a culture much like what I described, and it wasn't until I moved to America that I learned what "nerd" meant. Nobody around me in childhood ever made that distinction. Similarly, I found it odd that Americans identified by musical genres in high school. But sure, these things would be fascinating thing to ethnographically!
All parts of all American cities? Quite a broad brush. Maybe they should visit Boston. Or Taos. Or Santa Fe. Or Boulder. Or Santa Cruz. Or...

Are you sure those were verified? It used to shock me that people who put on cv “5 years” of programming experience in language X could not write switch statement in it, not anymore. Certifications like CKA can be verified online, cvs should include verification link; CKA/CKAD expires after 3 years, CKS after 2 years so it’s physically impossible to have too many of certificates like this.

To me this makes LinkedIn pointless. The whole point, at least in the beginning, was to create a network of people you've worked with.

If you start adding random people it becomes like yet another social network without any added benefit.
Not the issue here, look at the end of the selected path, where the cursor is. If you go down where the cursor is instead of right the path is 1 step shorter.
In my opinion you should be careful claiming 100% uptime since it feels that you are just throwing numbers out there. Especially with other comments in this thread stating that this doesn’t appear to be 90% of data.
The author makes a bold statement and it is a bit aggressive, but he is right about Gnome devs removing features people use when they think people shouldn't use.

People complain about Gnome not because their mobile-like interface, but because Gnome devs always remove features people use.

They do this since Gnome 2 and even Linus Torvalds complaint about it multiple times.
But what do either of those factors have to do with startups?

If economics and politics are the primary blockers, what exactly are startups bringing to the table?
Social media is really great for the companies who own the platforms. They just end up off-loading the work of content-generation to the users, who also do the work of attracting and retaining other users, all so that the platform-owner can advertise to them or track their behavior.
Also, sometimes companies will force employees to get certified for many reasons. My own company was recently looking to renew their Gold Partnership with Microsoft and so they were looking for victims to get Microsoft certified, because, apparently, that's the requirement for partnership.

As for why companies need such partnership: it speaks well to managerial types, therefore helps win contracts.

What you are complaining about is actually the exact tactics of the left, which is to expand their city boundaries so that their dense homogenous voters swing elections in the surrounding districts.

When the left does it’s called redistributing, when the right does it it’s called gerrymandering.
The purpose of no child left behind is to literally close schools in low performing areas. Leaving families no choice but to go with other options.

I recently gave a Rust workshop to Kotlin and Swift developers. Strings in Rust are a really, really difficult topic for complete newcomers because they're understood as a basic type whereas in Rust they require having read half the Rust book to grasp.

Consider: I can teach a lot of Rust basic with `usize`. Defining funcions, calling functions, enums because they're `Copy` and because there's only one type. String requires knowing about &str which requires knowing about deref which requires knowing about (&String -> &str), it also requires understanding lifetimes, moving, heap and stack, cloning. Then, if you want to work with the file system you also need to understand Paths, OsString and AsRef.

With Kotlin and Swift, for all these things, you really just need one type, String, and you handle it just like usize.

It is really a bid of a hurdle for new developers coming from higher level languages (especially if they just give it a quick try).

You need to have some domain knowledge to know -- did someone think the power of 2 was important here?

For communications they mostly haven't (we tend to deal with decimal clock rates, bandwidths, etc-- and even when we have 128-QAM or whatever that's going to not result in powers of 2). For memories and caches we generally like them to be powers of 2 to use all the bits of our addressing and decoders well. For secondary storage, ... we tend to have a non-round number of lumps that are a small power of 2 sized, and we might as well use decimal.

This is subtle and has been woefully inconsistent. It would be better to just use powers of 10.

(Me of 20 years ago would be very disappointed in myself for writing this comment).
For anyone struggling, turning the screen to black and white helps. Less dopamine per hit makes it easier to break those habits.

The horseshoe bat's range spans from Japan to Portugal. That doesn't change the fact that all the closest relatives to SARS-CoV-2 we've discovered have been found in the far south of China and Cambodia, 1-2k miles away, nor does the presence of more distantly related SARS-like coronaviruses.

If we find a closer relative near Wuhan, that will change the hypothesis. But we haven't.

If I was in this state I would be scared for myself. Maybe I wouldn’t need to be, but it seems seriously concerning.

I think I’m bad with my phone, but I’m nowhere near that level. I can still leave it at home without anxiety or choose a book over Instagram, so to speak.

In some naive way I almost hoped younger people would see the problem with phones and navigate their way around it. I felt almost blindsided by how addictive they are, having acquired my first smart phone around age 25. Perhaps the reality is that we’re all weak to the phones and being steeped in it for a lifetime is a curse more than a blessing.
I don't know where this method of argumentation came from, but it's obnoxious and I'm over it. There are even soyjaks for this. Either you don't know and you're being lazy (I don't think this is the case), or you do know and you've generated an asymmetric work request for op that you could've answered and that left unanswered by him casts doubt on his argument. If you have a case to make, make it, instead of this nonsense DoS attack. This is not a defense of op's position.

"In plain text"??? Please highlight which of the 3 proposals you think will benefit institutional investors:

1. Banning payment for order flow. Basically all of r/wallstreetbets agrees with this, too.

2. Anti "gamification" of stock trading. I've commented on this a million times, but the fact that Robinhood graphs have no labels on their y-axis means those graphs are totally meaningless and only there to act like slot machine lights. If retail traders have the same trading options as before, but with real actual information instead of whizbang blinking lights, I don't see how this is a negative.

3. Competition issues because of dominant market makers. That proposal is 100% a benefit to small retail traders at the expense of huge market makers, which goes directly against your thesis.
