You blame it all on the black death, however, Norway was on the front line of the little ice age, so those farms might have not been populated because the land itself was not able to sustain cultivation reliably. Tolkien mentions only one bad winter, but I can allow that he wasn't well versed in climate sciences and regional climate patterns. As a result we have something that can suppress population growth to a minimal level, however, we don't have good proves in the text for such events in Middle Earth.

it's okay, you don't need to notify everyone what you don't read
I'd bet many cases were obvious. How many people told the employees they were paying IRS fees? Or that they had a long lost relative who contacted them? Many of these scams aren't sophisticated and the people falling for them are gullible. It's not hard to imagine that an employee with a bit more sense than the customer could have simply been told what's happening and realized it's probably illegitimate.
> I'm on an Ubuntu 22.04 Desktop computer. I click on the big green Free Download button.

WHY? Why would you ever do that? It is not "you are doing it wrong" it is "you are wrong for doing it at all". Even Windows got the memo and got win-get now....
>The other point, since this is FAANG, how is the conversation going to go with HR if I want to terminate someone because they won't turn on their camera?

Well, I guess going by what you've said they won't care either. I don't know how you can run a company productively over the long term if nobody cares, though.
I think you are misunderstanding me.

> do not invalidate the idea that I have complete control over select scenarios.

I was not trying to say you NEVER have complete control. I am saying we don’t ALWAYS have complete CONSCIOUS control. I am saying we often make decisions for reasons that we are not fully conscious of, or even aware at all. In fact, we will sometimes tell ourselves (and actually believe) we are doing something for one reasons when we are in reality doing it for another reason we aren’t fully aware of. Our subconscious controls a lot more of what we do than we realize, is my point.

I am not saying we can’t choose to, at moments, take more full conscious control for a while. I am also in no way arguing against free will. I am just saying that we are only aware of a part of what goes into our choices of actions.

Their compensation is 99% cash so it doesn't change.
I started working at Oracle nearly a decade ago, after the stock had gone up significantly. After this peak, the stock was not really expected to go up much in the next couple years. Around that time, they started giving employees a choice between options and RSUs. The thinking was that options are worthless if the strike price isn't hit, whereas RSUs can drop in value but not to zero.

If they're not doing so already, I imagine other employers will start offering RSUs as well.
Quitting my job did wonders for me. After years of hard working it takes it's toll on the mind. This may or may not be an advisable plan though

Sleep is incredibly important also. Earplugs and a face mask help with sleep in disrupting conditions.
I don’t know what point you are trying to make
Since I never ran a hidden service I never challenged my assumptions that they connected to an exit node, but it make sense that an hidden service would be routed through a middle relay without going through an exit node.

Thanks for the clarification.
Exercise definitely has helped me accelerate my mental sharpness and I would recommend running or swimming if possible, otherwise weight lifting would help too.
I'm tossing some random sentences at GPT-3.

"I love pizza." - Not sarcastic

"I love my boss." - Possibly not sarcastic, depending on context.

"This meal you have served me looks absolutely fucking delicious." - Sarcastic

"This will be fun." - Could be sarcastic, but also genuine. (AI knows how to give non-answers lol)

As a human, can you tell? I think it's the same. Both humans and AI have trouble without the context. GPT-3 is trained on more words than you and I have ever read. It's quite global, but leans American.

In the guidelines, we're encouraged to control the AI's tone. You don't tell it to "respond to this email". You tell it to "respond politely to this email." Otherwise angry emails will get angry responses.
> I’m supporting a principle of violence against police any time it would be justified against an ordinary person.

This does not clarify the issue. When is violence justified against an ordinary person in your opinion? If you're proposing a legal principle, there should be a clear line.

Moreover, who gets to decide when violence is justified? Are we leaving that up to each person's own sense of justice? Or does everyone have to use your standard? How do we resolve post-facto disagreements about the justification of use of violence?

What punishment would you support for someone who uses unjustified violence that they feel is justified? What if they disagree with that punishment?
Not to mention the release of Tesla bots due to September event.
Yeah, I could tell it was him, but I hope they haven't really started dialogue recording and this was a one-off.

His performances are usually more... Lively? Swashbuckle-y? Guybrush is out of water but enthusiastic and trying for the pirates drawl, and I just didn't feel that with this trailer. I hope it's just because he wasn't warmed up for the role again.
> But imagine a world in which you can securely log in to websites using any current browser on any device running any modern operating system, without having to create, remember, type, and protect passwords. It’s relaxing just to think about.

This is such a weird thing to say... it really isn't all that relaxing tbh, like why not just use a password manager separately or through browser? What's relaxing about handing all your logins over to big company or big company's operating system? That seems like the opposite of relaxing

And also what happens if the public private key pair is compromised? How will they implement device syncing of passkeys or the bluetooth technique mentioned in the article without creating new vulnerabilities? Why not just do 2FA and not put all of your eggs in one basket?

They criticize 2FA as flawed in the article, but how common are the SMS vulnerabilities that they talk about? Based off of this article, it seems like passkeys are 100% better and the solution to all of our authentication needs. Reads like a sales pitch

> Passkeys are synchronized and backed up. If you get a new Android phone or iPhone, Google and Apple can restore your passkeys. With end-to-end encryption, Google and Apple can't see or alter the passkeys.

Hate to say it, but I personally don't feel comfortable storing all of my logins on Apple or Google's servers. Sorry, not for me.
It begs: how many people find themselves weaving webs of lies in places like Wikipedia to keep their personas/identities intact?
So why isn't it do more widely when it would convenience many users?

Frankly, I find it annoying that it isn't done as a matter of course.

I think "the right to spend and receive money" is (or should be considered) a human right. Being able to live is for a large part contingent on paying people and/or receiving money from people. Companies involved with payments should be regulated on this basis.

This doesn't address the banking thing, although spending and receiving money at times requires a bank account.

If your family members need binaries of bleeding edge software and you're worried about their ability to use their computer you should be building them. In that case you'll be able to ensure compatibility. I don't think encouraging novice users to download random binaries from the web is any better than them not being able to use the absolute latest version of an email client.
You're just replacing one set of people with access to customer data with another.

In either case you should be implementing least-privileges. Only the access to data that a person needs to get their job done. More frequently this is developers than operations people.
It is astounding that you think phones need you to join a "cool, secret club". Open app store, click install is not new, not secret and much easier than download stuff from websites to sideload.
For me it shows bank transfer and bitcoin as payment options. I'm in the US.
Right. Which is why 10 feels an odd number. I thought the benchmark referenced was possibly something else.

That is, an unrolled loop on bytes can be N conditional increments on an index, with a check at the end to see if still in the bounds. Assuming N is small, will be hard to compete with that, honestly. The hash would be spreading the data wider than the linear search would be. Though, I agree I'd expect it to still be on a cache line for bytes.
I had this idea a couple years back for an app that allows eg a parent to write a short story and have some sort of GAN generate the illustrations for it (hopefully with the ability to include images of a child that would be used to include them as a character in the story). Monetisation would come from charging to create a hardcover print of the book.

Some research at the time showed that the publicly available models just weren’t there so I was very excited to hear about DALL-E 2 a couple months back as the idea was suddenly far more feasible but it seems someone else will beat me to it long before I even get access to DALL-E 2
I think it is worth mentioning that this was Robert Dewar's second or third Ada implementation (depending on how you want to count them). Robert was involved with the original Ada/Ed implementation from the late 1970s/early 1980s at NYU (targeting VAX minicomputers), and the re-implementation of that into a C-based implementation that ran on MS-DOS. Ada/Ed was the first validated Ada implementation, and it used SETL as its implementation language which Robert was actively involved in through the 1970s (so he had a long track record of language implementations).

What we are missing about the Ada story is the long line of languages and tools that inspired the Green design that lead to Ada, that is the language LIS (Pascal/Simula inspired) and its toolchain that Jean Ichbiah and associates used as inspiration for the Ada design.
It’s indeed not unreasonable to want that, but there does not exist any incentive structure that would cause it to exist. It’s not the fault of some person or group of people doing something wrong; it’s simply a logical consequence of what Linux is.
> and since neither libgit2 or go-git supports it

libgit2 already supports filters and that’s all you need to build lfs support (actually, you don’t even really need to use them if you don’t want to). Lfs itself is not a feature of git. It’s a specification that defines a protocol for replacing large files with pointers (via the use of the smudge and clean filters) and uploading said large files to another location.

Source: I am the cofounder and former CTO of forestry.io, a git backed content management system, and I implemented lfs support in conjunction with libgit2 in that product about 4 years ago.
This is literally ideological BS. The affiliation of one of the authors with MIT testifies to the sorry state of academia.

I believe there was a spike.

Check out the flatline for Asian murders per 100,000. I am surprised, given the amount of Asian hate that is being reported.
One could argue that we're already there. If machines are already dictating what gets seen by the majority of internet users is the author's humanity (or lack thereof) really relevant anymore?
Muun is awesome. I have a hard believing anyone who complains about LN has used it.
Oh you know what I mean. "Mainstream" distros have GUIs that wrap package managers. Also my girlfriend figured apt out like a week after installing a debian based distro. It's not exactly rocket science.
Something that I find hilarious is how confused people are about what a fact even is. So in your example, the fact is:

> Black U.S. residents were incarcerated at 3.5 times the rate of white U.S. residents

To argue with this is to argue with reality itself.

The examples of how Democrats vs Republicans interpret this fact are opinions, not facts. They each have their own views, interpretations, and opinions, but they ought not to have their own facts. E.g.: they can disagree about why blacks are incarcerated more than whites, but not about the numbers.

Notice I use "ought", because many people will cheerfully point at a fact and proclaim that that's "just your opinion" or call it "fake news", as if that makes reality go away.

Worse still in some ways is they will disagree without actually having mutually exclusive opinions, for purely tribal reasons. Your example is actually one of the best ones: BOTH Democratic and Republican opinions are technically valid, at the same time.

Black men do commit crimes at a higher per-capita rate and they are also steered towards a life of crime in no small part due to systematic racism! Not just everyday racism reducing their opportunities to lead a lawful life, but also racism within the legal system that makes it more likely for them to be incarcerated even for petty crimes.

The difference between typical Democrats and typical Republicans is that they'll simply focus on one of the two causes, wilfully ignoring the other. This then leads to pointless, endless debates, because they don't even disagree and can't effectively disprove each others' points -- because neither side is "wrong".

My point is that ordinary people don't debate these things very well, because they don't know how. They confuse their interpretations with their facts, cherry pick, look at their favoured subset to the exclusion of all else, and generally try their best to simply ignore reality.

Especially if reality makes them feel uncomfortable.
I'm sure this is already happening. I've caught some acquaintances' kids running around watching YouTube on their phones and the funnel gets them watching the most bizarre, awful, poisonous content you can't even imagine. It's absolute nonsense that has got to be generated by AI narrated by computer generated voices and featuring loose knockoffs of popular characters running around in weirdly random directions (mostly farm animals).

It's very scary how violent these kids get when I take it away from them, who are otherwise the sweetest. I'm afraid of how their generation is going to turn out after being so attacked by the media they unwittingly consume in their childhood.
As the tidbits article says, only the client is proprietary. I am sure that eventually a fully open-source Linux version of this is going to be developed and integrated into Seahorse.
Hiring a good designer is really tough, the startup I work at went through a few before finally finding one that was worth the money.

We ended up using something called Upperstudy [1] and liked the process overall. You get a designer for your team that has talent but less experience and is being mentored by the founders of the company who used to work in design for notable companies.

The work your designer does is monitored / scrutinized by their mentors within the company and in the beginning you end up working quite a bit with both your designer and the mentors at the company to make sure you are all on the same page.

If it's a good fit at the end of a trial period, you have the option to bring the designer onto your team full time, and if not you can part ways there.

It makes no difference to me, because I don’t read Wikipedia articles. I do use Wikipedia to find references and public domain illustrations, though.
> I am not saying we can’t choose to, at moments, take more full conscious control for a while. I am also in no way arguing against free will

Okay, perhaps it is useful to be more judicious in your language then. After all, the top-level parent of this comment chain is saying this:

> Most people believe [...] that they choose how they act and behave. Any serious introspection, however, quickly shows how foolish [this belief is].

This comment is not exactly showing the nuance in a statement such as more reasonably arguing "we are only aware of a part of what goes into our choices of actions".
God, I love it when I come across a Russian troll in the wild. Nice work on getting your definite articles right on this one!
>The guy was on something like a three month contract, and a good chunk of that time was on-boarding then slowly getting suspicious.

My perception after reading a lot of this thread is that there's so much bloat and checked-outness in the tech sector that it's probably very feasible as an employment strategy to bullshit your way into multiple 3-month contracts, sandbag your way through the onboardings then fail to be renewed (without having done a day's productive work) then rinse and repeat indefinitely.

I don't know how much longer that will persist now that the free money tap has been turned off, though.

It's another world from the startup sector I know where you could tell within a week that a guy wasn't any good and you'd instantly show them the door because you couldn't afford the dead weight for literally another day. shrug
Create a note by pressing plus, select share and click OK. Now you got two notes in the app that are copies.

The first few minutes are the most important for an application. It should not fail and do as advertised. So far, this feels not fully tested or even UI tested. This would not lead to an easy upgrade to 'Pro'.

Note: removed statement about not intuitive of Git syncing. This is hidden in the hamburger menu instead of being part of the initial view and options.
OP sounds like they're honoring the terms of Wikipedia's content license and donating money on top. Why is that a problem?

They're presumably also benefitting from the work volunteers put into Linux, nginx, and whatever else is in their stack, but nobody suggests that websites using open source technologies should be forfeiting all profits.
Not sure about the weird settings disappearing bit.

But regarding the categories, Gmail doesn't automatically expose these to IMAP. But there is something you can do even if a bit hacky.

Create 5 labels named after the 5 Categories. Then create 5 filters each of which look something like this.

Search criteria: "category:primary" -> Apply label "primary".

Repeat the above step for all the categories. Et Voila. Your categories will appear in IMAP as folders of the same name.
I imagine that (at least in the early days) AIs may seek out creative humans, to get an edge over the other AIs ;)
Oh no they’ll have to live in them instead of flipping them at the height of the market.
I'm not familiar with regulations on credit card organizations, but I would guess their responsibilities are closer to those of banks than Walmart's responsibilities. I spent more than a decade at an investment bank, and it's pretty heavily regulated.
I have a friend who created this app for dream interpretation, and almost every entry is related to sex, death and violence. We don't really understand the kind of garbage we are feeding into our AIs.
I'm not really sure, this resonant phenomenon already exists (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schumann_resonances) and is pumped by global lightning activity. However this is not very efficient as most of the energy of lightning strikes falls outside of the resonant band, which is around 7 hz.

Maybe you could figure out the amount of electrical energy being spent by all global lightning strikes within a slice of time, then if you knew the spectrogram of the electromagnetic emissions from a lightning strike you could calculate the percentage of that energy that falls within the resonant band of the system (around 7hz plus the next few harmonics), which won't be much, then compare that number to the actual amount of ambient energy in the system to get a rough idea of how efficient it would be in an equilibrium state.
You mostly gotta rely on confessions. Particularly dumb criminals might leave a money trail though (like in Abramski v. US). Also, I think if you gift a gun to someone who isn't legally able to own it, that technically counts as a straw purchase. Different states have different rules/laws for gifting guns (including different rules for different types of guns), which makes your question hard to answer directly.
> but I got told in no uncertain words not to do it by some scientists who contribute to those IPCC reports.

What was the rationale?

I understand to not dump a million tons of iron in the ocean at once, but what's the harm in first dumping 100 kg, then seeing the results, drawing conclusions, and deciding to go to 1 ton, or to stop? If 100 kg is considered too much, then maybe 10 kg is ok, no?
This will probably start off quite bad, but conceivably it could get to be very good.
I'm not a lawyer but it's my understanding you never lose constructive possession if you are present with the firearm. For instance, you can take a firearm to an engraver to have it engraved while you wait, so long as you are present for the engraving operation it isn't considered a transfer. I'm unsure if 922 (a) (5) even applies in that case, but IANAL.

I would be quite shocked if anyone was prosecuted under 18 U.S. Code § 922 (a) (5) for a firearm loaned exclusively for sporting purposes, but this is not legal advice. Personally I can think of at least one long-running skeet/trap range that will lend out shotguns for sporting purposes without any representative being anywhere near present while you use it, and they've been on the radar in plain sight doing this for decades across thousands of people (and they'll lend to any tom/dick/harry without any scrutiny).
Is there strong evidence available that increased density negatively affects nearby housing prices? In my experience density can lead to a place being more desirable (by virtue of hosting more highly desirable amenities) so while I can imagine the correlation suggested, I can also imagine the opposite being true.
That's a non-answer
They automatically get 5% of their base salary as discounted non-qualified options, which are worth nothing now going back to like 2018 or 2019. Some people elect to do up to 100% or their salary as nonquals and they’re probably hurting but the expiration is 10 years.
Self defense and defense of others is a clear line with case law and statutory interpretations going back centuries. I refuse to be pulled into your argument and its attempts to recast my position: police should have no privileges above an ordinary citizen when using force. Use of violence is justified in a court of law subject to a jury of your peers.
Except for the absurdity/non sequitur, that kind of thing is pretty standard for old European fairy tails. For example Hansel and Gretel involves a woman who cannibalizes children.
Nobody was wondering about how it works at this moment. We're interested in a better future system.
Heh, maybe the AI is a Freudian. What, you disagree that this dream is sexual? You must be repressing something!
