“I’m sorry your honor I didn’t understand what I was signing” I don’t think has ever been a valid reason in a courtroom, similar to “I’m sorry I didn’t know I was committing a crime” is not a valid defense.
Interesting. For me the roles are reversed. Alcohol makes me feel dumb, like I can't think as fast or clearly. THC has a very different effect. I don't feel slow, I mostly feel calm and clear. Sort of in the ballpark of meditating. I've done some of my best writing on weed. I've written some great code high. I prefer low doses (10mg) of a nice hybrid edibles with a decent amount of CBD (1:1 or 2:1) for this.

And yeah, the schizophrenia risk would make me think twice about it if that ran in my family. Though I'm now at an age where that wouldn't matter (schizophrenia almost always manifest by your 30s which I cleared a while back).

I think you are absolutely correct. This is my experience and viewpoint as well.
> I have a very busy mind and I need something to slow my brain down

I'm taking this a bit out of context but this is the biggest benefit for me.

While sativa can make my mind rush with ideas, it also helps slow things down, especially if I'm learning something. It gives me the patience to do things at the right pace rather than try to rush to get results. This holds for things as varied as learning kubernetes (e.g. going back and forth between documents to make sure everything makes sense rather than only going forward even where there are bits that I don't fully grasp) or making sure I have the proper form during weight lifting (e.g. using lower weights when I notice a discomfort somewhere – I'm much more sensitive to these things while stoned – instead of powering through a too-high load and injuring myself, thus setting my progress back).

My current understanding of google analytics and GDPR compliance is that you can use it in a GDPR compliant manner without that much trouble.
On the older UA there is a simple flag that enables IP anonymization and on the new GA4 there is purportedly no need for it as they don't collect or store the IP at all.

For many clients I have set up a cookie compliance tool like Onetrust, which blocks loading of GA and other scripts with one of the consent popups. With this combined configuration (and having verified nothing sneaks through before someone gives consent) most company legal / compliance teams I have worked with have deemed this to be a fully compliant setup. Of course, this might not be actually compliant, but the company legal team has done some research and arrived at this as the most advantageous position currently available.

I think using a compliance based tool like Onetrust also gives a sense of legal security in that if our configuration is properly set up they are advertising that we then get compliance as part of their service, and so responsibility of a violation could potentially be passed to them in a legal setting.

Similarly to other commenters here, I would like to share my approach:

- if it's an article related to my interests and that fits for the overall contents I share on twitter - I simply tweet about it.

- if it's code-related (e.g. github repo) - I just "star" it

- if it's something else - it depends what category it is, because I have two bookmark folders in the browser: "4 later" (so that if something seems to be interesting but I don't have time right now to read it) or "saved" folder where I just put something that I would like to have bookmarked (I've also have then nested year sub-folders (as I don't bookmark THAT often that this approach wouldn't be sufficient for me)).

- if something is very important for me, I simply send an e-mail to myself with tagged content so I can easily find it through e-mail search engine later - I have a dedicated e-mail suffix for this (imagine xyz+bookmark@gmail.com) and it automatically goes archived into "bookmarks" folder instead to inbox.

That's 1 inch of water per week.

Most people don't live in a desert, so some of that 1 inch of water comes from rain. That is, assume each watering uses 1 inch and the watering is one per week, then:

6772 gal / week * 52 weeks = 352,000 gallons per year.

The average American family uses about 300 gallons of water per day at home, says https://19january2017snapshot.epa.gov/www3/watersense/our_wa...

300 gal/day * 365.25 days / year = 110,000 gallon per year

which means the average family isn't putting 1" of water on their 10K sq ft lawn per week.

Furthermore, the same source says "Nationally, outdoor water use accounts for 30 percent of household use", so that should be more like 33,000 gal / year on outdoor use.

It therefore seems like your estimate is off by quite a bit.

As an example adjustment for rain. Boston gets 3-4 inches of rain per month, so that's about 0.5 inches of extra watering needed per month, or 0.125 inches per week, or 1/8th of your estimate.

There was a recent ACM article on this. They found there was a large number of sites that don't actually ask permission for anything, they are simply informing you of the spying. Not surprisingly, the ones that did allow modifying cookies were all setup in a predatory fashion which discouraged the disabling of tracking.

Now that I did not know. Given that l-theanine is a natural constituent of green tea (though I don't know offhand in what amount) I figure there would be more mention of this! A casual search doesn't reveal much, and even examine.com (https://examine.com/supplements/theanine/research/#pharmacol...) doesn't have anything listed. Ugh.

This is how I discovered Safari on iOS has a hard limit of 500 open tabs. Rather horrifyingly, when you try to open tab number 501, it asks if you want to close all open tabs.
Yes, exactly. That's what I was driving at. It's just a logic error, that leaks sensitive information, by virtue of leaking the wrong information. File formats in particular can make this difficult to get right. For example, the ZIP file format (that I have at least some experience with bleeds in) has at least 9 different places where a bleed might happen, and this can depend on things like: whether files are added incrementally to the archive, the type of string encoding used for file names in the archive etc.
Again, the point of the fear is not the specifics of current operations (ASIC details; which y'all are talking about as if all of the miners are using the same hardware), but the fear of future operations and that there's an enormous industrial preimage attack effort at all. One that we can see in real time, in global energy consumption graphs.

Maybe you find "cold comfort" that because we can watch it in real time if someone discovers a weakness we will also watch its repercussions and the subsequent horrifying fall in real time, too, but I certainly don't.

I'm not seeing why having a gun hobby is bad. I am not sure you realize the benefits of doing a precision activity like this when you, by your own admission, have never utilized nor have been inclined to utilize a firearm. Properly utilizing and training with a firearm builds focus, mental acuity, strength, and a sense of responsibility. It can also be argued that it destroys a certain bit of naive innocence as well when you come to the realization of what exactly you are handling and what exactly you are on the other end of should you be attacked by someone with a firearm.

With media publications, at least, it's more that they have specialists dedicated to slathering bait on the titles. That's their job and they're perfectly good at it—they just don't produce what people here would call a good title. This is an example of what Eric Evans called a "bounded context". The way I look at it, it's their job to sex up the headlines and our job (community as well as moderators!) to deflate them again. "Not in this context."

Too many writers—including of headlines—are so sloppy with language that it's misleading, or even incorrect.

Perhaps when GPT-4 or whatever takes over those jobs, it will be better at it. Provided we don't train it on anything written after 2000 or so, when all headlines became tabloid headlines and margins got tight enough that no-one had time for careful editing anymore.
Lady Bird was set in Sacramento, not a small town.
I think the implications for Go are a bit different, though. It's a very simple matter to change the hash algorithm used for go.mod. Even if there was no hash version prefix, it's trivial to add one after the fact, though older tools would probably give a confusing error message without foreknowledge of the concept of an unrecognized hash algorithm. And adding a new hash algorithm is just a matter of writing a relatively small amount of code, and then probably waiting a few Go releases before making it the default and assuming most people will have it.

Git's entire foundation relies on SHA1 hashes. Each commit is its own hash, and contains a list of the hashes of all files that are a part of it. Branches have hashes, tags have hashes. Everything has a hash. A repository that uses a different hash algorithm is a completely different repository, even if the contents and commits are otherwise identical. You can't even store your code on someone else's server (well, aside from manually copying the repository data over, though that won't be too useful) unless that server has upgraded their git version.

> We want Canadians to find Canadian music. How best to do it? How will you do it? I don’t want to manipulate your algorithm. I want you to manipulate it to produce a particular outcome.

So basically "I don't want to switch your Spotify playlist to Justin Beiber. I want you to switch your playlist to Justin Beiber." Lol.

I think the issue here is that Canadian content creators actually needed the protectionist laws back when a few big media companies controlled everything. Those companies could make better margins by buying cheap US content and re-broadcasting it. There was no incentive to create Canadian content because getting it published / broadcasted would have been extremely difficult even if it was better content than what was being produced in the US.

The internet has solved the problem of publication and distribution, so getting locked out of the space by a huge media company just doesn't happen anymore. However, that kind of protectionism has an ongoing, collateral effect. It created an industry that's reliant on participating, and being successful with, a subpar product and the only way they can continue to compete is to have the government force us to buy their stuff.

Take YouTube as an example of a more even playing field. Yeah, they surface content, but, for all intents and purposes, they're not discriminating against who can or can't upload a video. They're not preventing you from being successful by promoting someone else's content. They're promoting someone else's content because it's better than yours.

In Canada it's laissez faire (hands off) for a lot of critical infrastructure (communications, highways, insurance), but full on subsidies and support for non-essential things like entertainment. When people complain about government waste, stuff like this should be at the top of the list.

> "some manufacturers would offer a product with "2 year warranty"

Or, realistically, all the manufacturers would offer zero days warranty and only luxury brands would offer life-long warranty to people who can afford their products (e.g. less than 1% of the population).

Mh... I'm an org-roam (org-mode/Emacs) user, witch have a similar feature and... I find such visualization honestly sugar-eye and useless.

Network analysis of notes links is fascinating, but must be actionable in some way, just having a UI means nothing. Also most noting tools miserably fails to really offer "easy atomic notes that can be combined (transcluded) and splitted as the user wish", some try structured ways (SPARQL/fixed formats alike) others try to offer some loose feature set to make anything possible but a real solution is still decades of development away IMO.

So far the best, witch means least worse, way I found to really analyze my notes is using org-mode drawers with relevant templates help for consistency to be queried via org-ql, witch means essentially key-value structured tagging of notes so I can see them in a timeline, I can see all notes about a URL, an author, a subject, a topic, ... unfortunately is a manual tedious process and at runtime is not that fast nor flexible.

Long story shorts vast approaches like Wikidata, classic libraries cataloguing techniques & tools, modern/old notes and relevant tools all work to a certain extent and fails thereafter.
"Weed is bad" is not what I am arguing against and therefore a generic "video games are bad" complaint is not equivalent. The question is whether we should care that weed makes you a less productive member of society. Loot boxes have no impact on a gamers level of production so it is an irrelevant argument.

Also isn't the "video games rotting people's brain" complaint always laughed at in circles like HN? Is that really the parallel you want to make? Plus people generally only say that in relation to kids. I'm not advocating for kids (or anyone) to use pot. I am saying the personal productivity angle is a weak line of argument and is usually masking some other objection to pot since the same argument is not used in other discussions in which it is equally applicable.
Sigh, no it doesn't in any meaningful way.

160 bit output, without a cryptographic weakness, is good for about 30 trillion commits per second continuously for 1000 years.

For SHA the cryptographic strength isn't primarily from the length of the hash, but from the internal number of rounds is (e.g. 160-bit SHA-1 with fewer rounds has been badly broken way earlier, and 160-bit SHA-1 with more rounds would be safer).

Cryptographic hashes are designed to be safe to truncate and still have all the safety the truncated length can provide. It's basically a requirement for them being cryptographically strong. Even in the SHA-2 family, the SHA-224 and SHA-384 are just truncated versions of larger hashes.

> In theory, there's nothing wrong with having objects hashed with mixed algorithms as long as the software knows how to deal with that.

That's an interesting idea, actually. I'm not sure they plan to support that, though? That would make things a lot easier on existing repositories; without support for mixed hashes, repos would have to have their history entirely rewritten, which would invalidate things like signed commits/tags.
