Pace v Alabama was from 1883. Perez v Sharp was a California case from 1948--an odd case to cite since it had no controlling authority outside of California.

Regardless, Loving v Virginia (1967) was decided by unanimous decision--and that's back in the 60's--just three years after the passage of the Civil Rights Act. I don't know of anyone seriously suggesting that the holding in Loving is in jeopardy today; it's literally the direct application of the 14th Amendment.
In that just as one may not be forced to donate organs or even just blood to save someone else's life, by the same logic, one cannot be forced to bear a child.

Speaking as a generally pro-abortion person, I don't think it's that black and white. When you agree to sustain someone's life, is taking away that sustainment murder? For example, if you reach out and stop someone from falling off a cliff but then choose to let go before they regain their balance, is that murder? I also don't see how to logically reconcile the idea that abortion isn't murder but letting a baby starve to death is. Either you have a responsibility towards human life you created or you don't.
There is only artificial scarcity in some places. Ensuring a plentiful food (and other resource supplies) in many, many places of the world would require a great many invasions and occupations to root out corruption and snuff out local warlords, abusive military juntas, etc.

It isn't as simple as "just send other places more food" when the local power-tripping dictator will just seize the foreign aid
Specific instances are subjective of course, but seen throughout history it's objectively the case that we've regressed numerous times.
> it does make sense for it to be up to each individual state

The same argument was made about slavery, but a large and powerful subset of the country decided that slavery was not tolerable even in neighboring states. I don't see a reason that forcing a woman to expose her medical records to the government or forcing her to carry a baby (at the risk of her own life) is not on similar moral ground.

> I don’t like it, but it’s in line with the principles that the country was founded on.

The country was also founded on disenfranchising women and minorities, and it's deeply undemocratic in the way that land votes rather than people.

The founders strongly urged the country to allow laws to evolve and to amend the Constitution. That is also a "founding principle".
It's not just Reddit. All the major "social media" platforms, from YouTube to Facebook thrive off of unpaid work by content creators.

Amazon and IMBD thrive off of user reviews, which provide one of the main sources of value for users of their sites.

The difference is, there is no universal answer, everyone has their own beliefs and answers. Making the right to an abortion an individual decision allows everyone to decide for themselves.

Banning that ability is the government deciding for you.

This is a loss of individuality for everyone regardless if you can or ever have an abortion.

This is how individual rights begin to erode.

I disagree with the article, which talks about building a holistic understanding when learning, and then ironically misses the forest for the trees regarding programming metaphors.

The author is obviously an experienced programmer, so I suspect they've forgotten what the mindset of an absolute novice is like, and to start programming with zero prior exposure to the concepts.

For the novice being introduced OOP, the `Duck / Cat / Dog <: Animal` analogy is useful to demonstrate how things like inheriting methods and sharing behavior works. It helps one start to think in terms of hierarchies and the boundaries between "concepts" in code. Obviously, in 'real' code, you won't be writing much that involves a literal hierarchy of animal species.

That's not the point. A beginner knows what a dog and a duck and a cat are in the real world. The "a-ha!" moment is mapping real-world relationships into a brand new abstract environment called Object Oriented Programming.

When you've never written a line of code in your life, abstract things like "network protocols" and "file I/O" and "ImageDisplay" (which is neither an image nor a display) are confusing, and so frustrating, and so not useful for teaching a complete novice.

What makes you think I didn't do all of that?

I went to cool museums. Drank beers I'd never heard of. Ate weird new foods. And wandered down cool side streets.

Most of the places were card only - and carrying cash is expensive. I read books in a park, chatted with locals. Wrote a blog post.

I used to do all that too, before GPS and smartphones. This way is much better for me.

Why stop there? Why not leave it up to individual counties, or cities, or people?
Common Law interpretation sure, you need to use the logic and decisions of the court to inform future decisions, but those decisions must be grounded on actual text and insofar as bad decisions are made they should be corrected.

They cannot devalue your token. The (taproot/segwit) tx is immutable. They can withhold it, yes. That’s why we have fees — humans are greedy, and will likely accept the tx fee as a bribe. There are always other miners that WILL take the money.

The Bitcoin difficulty equation has never changed. The math has not been changed. We have newer tx formats, and a newer signature scheme. We also have complete backwards compat.

Do you really understand this?
The argument "you only care about people before they are born" is what you find on reddit and is made in bad faith. This argument compares what is perceived as murder with minimizing government assistance after birth. Whether they are right or wrong is irrelevant as they believe their position before and after birth to be for the benefit of the child and therefore "pro-life".

> This would be interesting if E2EE was officially supported

The reality is people claim to need E2EE but it's not worth paying extra for it.

It's kind of like how people nod when you ask them if they hate companies like FB/GOOG stealing their personal information and then you offer them a dollar to give your their DOB, Address and SSN and they happily take the dollar and share all of that info.

… and those really serious about E2EE are using their custom stack anyways.
Stress and mental illness is as a pretty big factor in health degradation. Reducing that by just not dieting seems to me to be the simplest and easiest at the same time.

To each their own, there's a lot of ways to look at any single situation.
There are two ways to improve performance of a given program. You either go lower level, giving more control over the execution and specifying what you want exactly, or you go higher, not constraining the execution as much, allowing for better optimizations.

For example a manual for loop will almost always be harder to optimize than a map. The latter gives explicit permission for reordering, allowing for vectorization and parallelization automatically.

Also, I would think twice before claiming FP non-ideal for PLs - modern CPUs employ just as much FPism as they are considered imperative. OOE doesn’t sound too imperative to me. And at the end of the way, imperative steps are just sequential state changes from a different perspective.

I don't think that's the spirit of agile development at all. Agile is about closed loops with fast feedback. It's about communicating quickly and reacting to new information. I don't see it as having much to do with "hard vs. difficult" at all.
> Yet the law can compel a women to carry a fetus to term against her will?

The law also compels men to carry fetus's to term against their will, should they happen to become pregnant somehow.

Just because men can't get pregnant doesn't mean that the law doesn't apply to them.

> States rights has always been a double edged sword

No, “states rights”, in the US, has only ever been invoked for state-sanctioned repression. There is no other edge.

(Both sides of the tighter/looser federalism argument can be viewed as double-edged, but “states rights” has a very particular history.)
I was arguing for expansion in opposition to restricting equal protection. It would be much better if the US protected equal protection for all people immediately in 1790 but it didn’t. I would like to argue that the Republicans are a threat to the progress made in the latter half of the twentieth century without defending the previous systems as being good, but merely good enough to enable improvements via the Civil Right movement, gay power, womens lib, labor unions, etc.

If you have a plan for full equality, sign me up. I have seen some calls for a general strike on Twitter today, but I am unpersuaded that will happen this week.

Here on ycombinator even getting people to understand that the value of their labor is being taken and their orgs are racist and sexist is not an easy sell.
And most Americans support additional restrictions on access to guns like background checks, red flag laws, and banning assault rifles. Unlike abortion, those rights are being taken away from the legislators due to a horrible interpretation of the second amendment
True but that is why there is a bicameral Congress to try to balance populism vs more restraint. Large vs small. You don't want the largest state(s) trouncing the agendas for all other states and vice versa.
Things have improved a lot. It's night and day compared to 2 years ago. I have not tried Mobian, but otherwise I found postmarketOS has been the most robust, reliable, and unsurprising compared to Manjaro and Arch.

I say it's at the point where it's worth a reassessment - if you're the kind of person who gets nostalgic about the first years of Gentoo, as desktop. It can be worth it to try Plasma, Phosh and SXMO (Wayland unless you already have an opinion).

While it lasts multiple days in idle now, I'd get at least one spare battery for longer outings.
"Very seldom" including every single Republican Presidential term for the past 30 years save one. Without the electoral college propping them up the modern Republican party would be in serious trouble.

Want to know how you know the US will backslide? I Said it a decade ago - when R's are willing to pull the trigger on Roe, it will be because they are going for everything.
Seriously, ACA has been the largest government overreach in your life? The government plays a huge role in insurance (over 1/3 of those insured are insure through the government) with Medicare, Medicaid and VA benefits. A few wildly popular rule changes (preexisting conditions) and some state-level exchanges have not moved the needle from giant player to overreach.
> There is no answer of "when life begins".

Tell that to a right-leaning Christian pastor, or their congregation. Most of modern Christianity specifically teaches that, in some places, things are most definitely black and white and some basic questions do indeed have easy answers. "Murdering babies", as a family member of mine likes to phrase it, is to them one of the most straightforward and simple of them all.

Thank you.
With that logic then Bitcoin is unnecessary since you have several banks or fiat currencies to choose from already.
I think that's correct; and I suspect it was intentional.

I strongly disapprove of extraterritorial legislation (a US specialty). But in the case of the GDPR, if you want to regulate internet activity, then you more-or-less have to go extraterritorial.
If I were to take their words at face value, this group considers abortion to be murder. Because I don’t expect an argument of the form “if you don’t like murder, don’t do it” to have a good outcome, I would instead focus on the fact that in all other regards bodily autonomy is so important that we are not obligated to perform even safe procedures such as donating blood in order to save the lives of others, and indeed this respect for bodily autonomy (in the USA) also extends to organ donation after death being opt-in rather than opt-out.
> When Obama was running in 2008 he claimed to want to codify Roe as law his first day as office, and was elected with a super majority. Never once tried. This was not the only opportunity in the last 50 years.

The cynic in me thinks that neither party wants this issue to go away because it fills voting booths.

Democrats have had multiple chances to codify it and didn't even try. They could also get some buy-in from on-the-fence people and maybe even a few very centrist Republicans in bluish states with a compromise that codifies protection for abortions in the first trimester but nope.

If Republicans really were serious about adoption as an alternative they'd make reforming and funding adoption and foster care a huge priority. They'd also entertain medicare coverage for uninsured women giving birth even if it's to be given up for adoption so as to remove the financial incentive for abortion. But nope.

Why solve a problem or find a viable compromise when the controversy gets you elected? Culture war controversies also distract from incompetence and corruption.
I miss the crazed jesus Republicans. There is no Jesus anymore.
Gods I hope this is just a fluke but reading OP and some comments it seems that it is not. :(

In any case, first thing I always do when I install a printer is to give it one exact static local IP because I made a firewall rule that blocks all outgoing WAN traffic from that IP. I lost faith in all my periphery to not sing behind my back and took things in my own hands.

My Brother MFC works amazingly well and I will not think as a programmer in this case; I'll be a normal human who says "no need to update it if it works" and leave it at that.

So far zero complains and I am happy with my device. And with these news I am even happier that I am paranoid and make sure my device doesn't get a firmware update.
even if you consider the fetus at any stage to be a living human being entitled to certain rights, it is in another body of which the "person inside" should have no say over because its not their body

it would be like if you woke hooked up to another person who was relying on your body to survive. sure they're a person, but you never consented nor have to continue giving consent for them to use you in that manner
I’m aware and it’s terrifying. Traditionally most anti-abortion advocates supported the exception, and I still believe most Republican voters support the exception.

But they elect extremists to govern.

I’d like to believe being more aware of the extremism would temper voters towards moderation, but I fear instead history proves the voters are more likely to have their views shift towards extremism.
Gerrymandering is an explicitly anti-democratic mechanism to allow for persistent minority rule. Both parties are engaging in this process and benefit in a localized way - but the US population a whole loses.
Depends on the bar. However my point was about cash. Cash attracted some very negative connotations in the last 2y.

"…[L]et me ask you to imagine this. You wake up in the morning and find yourself back to back in bed with an unconscious violinist. A famous unconscious violinist. He has been found to have a fatal kidney ailment, and the Society of Music Lovers has canvassed all the available medical records and found that you alone have the right blood type to help. They have therefore kidnapped you, and last night the violinist's circulatory system was plugged into yours, so that your kidneys can be used to extract poisons from his blood as well as your own. The director of the hospital now tells you, 'Look, we're sorry the Society of Music Lovers did this to you--we would never have permitted it if we had known. But still, they did it, and the violinist is now plugged into you. To unplug you would be to kill him. But never mind, it's only for nine months. By then he will have recovered from his ailment, and can safely be unplugged from you.' Is it morally incumbent on you to accede to this situation? No doubt it would be very nice of you if you did, a great kindness. But do you have to accede to it? What if it were not nine months, but nine years? Or longer still? What if the director of the hospital says. 'Tough luck. I agree. but now you've got to stay in bed, with the violinist plugged into you, for the rest of your life. Because remember this. All persons have a right to life, and violinists are persons. Granted you have a right to decide what happens in and to your body, but a person's right to life outweighs your right to decide what happens in and to your body. So you cannot ever be unplugged from him.' I imagine you would regard this as outrageous…"

Note: All of those unconstitutional rejections by the Ohio Supreme Court are moot. The committee ran out the clock and even though the maps were ruled unconstitutional, they are the ones that will be used. The law that forced the committee to be formed left no way for the courts to force a valid map to be used. So, even though there was a very successful anti-gerrymandering campaign in Ohio a few years ago, it ultimately didn't matter. How that came to be is another story entirely.

Ah, well, as a non expert in the subject, the way you phrased the question made me think, 'as much as we can'. Probably makes sense to work on making it so that no one has to toil just to starve at the extreme end. And probably good to make it so people who haven't accidentally found wealth can try out ideas.

I think it'll have to be phases. The first goal would be fewer musks/besos/gates etc and spread that wealth around.

Eventually maybe we succeed in automating most of the menial work and let humans collective imagination drive the future.

Greed though. That's our races great filter.
