> You honestly think it's a good system to have congress be the ones legislating on every new way companies come up with to pollute?

Absolutely not, and nobody (including SCOTUS in their ruling) says that they have to. Congress can still delegate authority to agencies, but at a certain point the agencies are limited in what they can do unilaterally without specific legislation.

> All of this assume a functional congress which we absolutely don't have. I'm working with the cards dealt, you want to imagine some pie-in-the-sky idea of how congress should function.

I agree that Congress is entirely dysfunctional. But I think that this sort of unconstitutional power that they've been so happy to delegate to the Executive has absolutely played a role in getting us the dysfunctional Congress we have today.

You can call it "pie-in-the-sky" but letting Congress continue to skate by without doing their jobs and letting Executive branch agencies unconstitutionally usurp the authorities of the other two branches is something I'm glad to see put to an end.

We can hold Congress accountable. I can't say the same for nameless, faceless bureaucrats.

it's pretty interesting though - surely you would have flagged the equivalent C++ code to what is discussed in https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/93740, if my understanding is correct - akin to std::unique_ptr<pthread_mutex_t>, as obviously wrong ? It's a pattern that was apparently commonplace in rust until now yet I would definitely not let my first year comp. sci. interns get away with something like this during code review.

To assert that it is possible using engineering to have predictable control over a system that we only have the barest understanding of (Earth's geophysical systems) is a straight up lie.

The etymology of niggard, “nigon,” is entirely unrelated to the racial slur which derived from “negro/nègre” in Latin languages meaning black. It’s just an extreme case due to the racial slur being contained in the spelling of the word.

I've been using neovim for maybe 6 months now, but as of yesterday I'm gonna switch back.

First, I was shocked that they changed the behavior of Y. That was bananas to me. But I discovered that really early on and powered through.

What's making me move back is I just opened a huge CSV file in vimr, and it hung forever. Usually you can ^C to make vim quit counting lines, but no dice. That's a non-starter for me, unfortunately. I was really into the Lua support, but so be it.
There is a long, slowly accumulating tail but to get there you need to survive five years and five releases. And least some of those need to be more successful than the median to generate real revenue in the tail. It also comes with increased expense in terms of maintaining those games, both the codebase itself and the marketing around it. For all that you’ll probably pull in a mediocre salary for a single developer.
> This is blatantly false. The 1800 Census has Virginia with a population of 676k persons (~340k free), with Delaware and Rhode Island having only 64k and 69k respectively. Their economies and 'power' (state militias?) were also nowhere near equal.

That's a single order of magnitude from top to bottom.

The smallest states are now the population of VA in 1800, and the largest are now two orders of magnitude larger than that.

> how else do you explain the success and dominance of the US worldwide? It is, without question, the most powerful, wealthy, and successful country to have ever existed in history.

It is:

* Exceptionally large. Russia is twice as large. China, Canada and the US are all approximately the same size. Next is Brazil and Australia, and then there's another factor of 2 drop.

* Exceptionally gifted in natural resources. Between ocean ports and navigable waterways, transportation was easy to exploit. During the agriculture-first age, huge herds of bison roamed free. Oil and gas and coal are available. Most metals and minerals are here. The climatic zones available for year-round habitation are huge, and the deserts are not.

* Exceptionally un-invadable by the powers in the world at its birth. The native Americans were devastated by disease and weapons. Every other human threat needed to lug their troops over an ocean before starting to invade. The War of 1812 was an expensive fizzle for the British.

* Compound effects from the above produced a robust economy.

* Being across an ocean meant that the US could pick and choose when to enter the World Wars. Even after Pearl Harbor, FDR could delay entry until industrial processes were engaged to a wartime footing.

But the American domination really started at the end of WWII, with all the European countries and Russia and China and Japan facing major rebuilding efforts, while the US was largely unaffected.

None of that requires the Constitution to be exactly the way it is. Would it have worked better as a multi-party parliament? I think so. Would it be less effective as a theocratic fascism? I hope we're not about to find out.
Corporate ends up bowing / genuinely endorsing ideology / cultural value of their respective regional branches if they want to play ball. Issue is Western HQs bowing to domestic influence domestically, but said domestic voices are culturally trained to prosthelytize, to the point where western domestic zeitgeist seeks to impose their values abroad. Meanwhile transnational branches are typically staffed prodominantly by locals/ regional expats who will clap back when HQ tries to impose incompatible foreign values. Lots of western educated MENA / South Asian folks who return to work in UAE because they get to live out comfortable conservative / traditional life styles. Ultimately that's the work force western companies have to deal with, people who grew up under systems that's not interested in importing US cultural wars. Both sides are sincere about their ideology and desire to make money, but they're simply different markets. Hard to swallow when western workers / market can't fathom those abroad are mostly interested in their goods/services and not values because decades of western trade politics tied trade to values promotion.

> Is it really so hard to see that the continued usage of "black = bad, white = good" could be problematic?

Why could it be problematic? That association exists in every culture and language. If you know that and you still hate it, the optimal solution would be not to call Europeans/Caucasians "white" and Africans/Negroids "black." It's as simple as that. Why do you want to keep calling people by color?

In my books, these people aren't "radical", they're simply "wrong".

Calling them "radical" gives the impression that being mindful about the language we choose to accept socially is in general radical. Of course it isn't.

> Federal branch agencies need clear limits to their power.

Yes, and if Congress wanted to set these limits, they would do so.

Which, in the case of the EPA, they did.

The court looked at the limits, and decided they didn't like them.
I appreciate the response. The ethical level, in my opinion, is reproducing the functioning software and the "business" specific logic. At a specific function level, and particularly for boilerplate code, I don't view that as specific to this (GPLv3 licensed FOSS) project. There are also dozens more examples of the same code being used, I don't think FOSS necessary gets a monopoly on technology.

Which I think creates an interesting debate, where is the line of general technology vs the intent of not allowing private companies to re-package FOSS for their own benefit?

> You can't lift a function from a GPL licensed codebase and plant it to a MIT licensed codebase. It's that simple.

If that function is a 'pad-left' type of function, is there an ethical violation? Or is this similar to learning Javascript by viewing the source code of webpages? At some point, functions are hardly unique in what they do, and there are only so many different ways to write a 'pad-left' function. I mention this question not to refute what you've said (I think I agree there is a likely license violation), but to explore where the line is for the ethics. I mean, an inferred implication could be that software developers stop looking at HTML source in order to learn. If you learn how to write a standard algorithm or function, and then you reproduce that later in private software, that is "lifting code". It's not much different committing that to memory then doing an outright copy-paste of a 2 or 3 liner. This makes me also think to the variety of shell scripts and standard bash'isms, if a single FOSS project uses a 'sort | uniq -c | sort -n', does that mean a MIT codebase has to re-invent a new way to do that?
It's easier to prevent cheating if the engine is on the server. Could you elaborate on what you mean by

> they shared the same seed (which makes it deterministic)

In addition to game init params (like random seeds), the game state is also a function of time, which cannot be synchronized the same way that seeds can.
The guy advertised to the world on youtube his collection, where/how it was located, and so on.

Stored that collection in an area anyone could locate with a google search.

Did not have agreed value insurance for the collectable games, likely because he was worried about documenting the collection to avoid taxes.

The vault/safe were non-functional.

There were no interior or exterior video cameras.

Considered collectable items his "retirement plan" (again, avoiding taxes would be my guess.)

Absolutely insane. At least he seems to have landed on his feet - he's now employed as a video game grader by CGC.

The other thing that is insane is that over and over the other video game store owners strongly suspected or knew what was going on, had had opportunities to call police, and plenty of ability to stall the thieves. One of several examples:

> Again, Jackson declined to provide any ID. While Young pretended to look up prices—he had no intention of purchasing any of the games—he told a colleague to take a picture of Jackson’s license plate. Young remembered reading about Trade-N-Games, and he called Brassard.

Oh. My. God.

Call. The. FUCKING. POLICE. In many states you don't even have to call - you can text, so it just looks like you're fucking around on your cell phone.

The constitution may be bad. We've had a number of amendments, most of which improved in in very critical ways.

The point is that we should live under legislation that is agreed upon via democratic means. Congress has pretty broad powers to create laws. Where those powers are circumscribed, such as with gun control, we have prescribed mechanisms for amending the constitution and making it less bad.

I'm highly critical of the court legislating from the bench, whichever direction it does it from. I'm _extremely_ frustrated and dismayed that our legislative branch punts so many contentious issues to the courts. If the court is now less willing to play that game, maybe we'll go back to deciding things in the legislature, where we can have a debate that is values-based, and not just based on the reading of a baroque 18th century document.

For what it's worth, I favor broad government action to address climate change and excessive CO2 emissions, but it's going to be better for everyone if there's some horse-trading here and we get some broad buy-in instead of having it be imposed by unelected government appointees that are not operating under a broad mandate.

If we can't get broad buy-in, I guess that means we can't deal with climate change democratically. Maybe then one wants to advocate for non-democratic measures, but then we should just be honest about that.
> It boggles my mind that we've had public key cryptography for fifty years and we're still not using it for payments. Never mind blockchains, just upgrading the banking system to use public keys would be a huge improvement.

This ignores the number one lesson of PGP - key management is hard, up there with naming things and cache invalidation. I honestly don’t see how public keys, which are vastly more complicated to use and store than passwords, would be an improvement for the general, non-technical public when getting them to use long, unique passwords is already a challenge. You have to copy over or update your public key with each new computer you get, assuming the account owner even has a permanent computer. What about accessing your account on someone else’s computer in a quick pinch, or on your phone? Coupled with the fact that keypairs would be unable to be force reset (assuming you want to use them to their full potential) unlike passwords, and it would be a disaster.

I will say that minimizing the sensitive information sent for payment with crypto is a huge plus, as the merchant no longer needs to handle the card information to send to the payment processor, but can just accept the transaction hash (with some sort of signature of course).

This also doesn’t really address the issue that Coinbase will still send your info to ICE, of course. Not that banks are any better. But cash is!
> a public blockchain analytics service

That just happens to be designed by some very fine people:

> In 2019, Motherboard reported that Neutrino, a blockchain-analysis firm the company acquired in order to create Coinbase Tracer, “was founded by three former employees of Hacking Team, a controversial Italian surveillance vendor that was caught several times selling spyware to governments with dubious human rights records, such as Ethiopia, Saudi Arabia, and Sudan.”

Zero-indexing doesn't just mean that the pointer to the first item in the block is the same as the pointer to the block itself, it also means that pointers to strides within the block have the same property.

Which is what you're saying, but yeah— I think zero indexing is one of those things that's like... a bit sucky, but the alternative is enough-worse that it makes sense to just get used to it.
Emulator is dead easy other than bit twiddling initially.

The compiler aspect would depend because although compilers try to construct the code generator automatically (e.g. by matching on a tree) sometimes it requires a special case to do good code.
I think the argument for this would be that things like smart contracts could do away with lawyers and such.

Except who vets the smart contracts? How does the customer execute the transaction in a fool proof way?

This is basically self sabotage. Building the yacht in Rotterdam, as opposed to a shipyard elsewhere, is good for the local businesses that are a part of the ship's development, and helps solidify the reputation of Rotterdam for future such projects. They will get built regardless, just probably elsewhere. There's also no reason to believe that removing the top of the bridge is going to have any impact to it whatsoever.

> the three-masted ship cannot fit under the Koningshaven Bridge

Videos of the ship [1] and [2]. The second especially shows that the issue is that the shipyard wants to install the masts inland of the bridge rather than on the ocean side of it. There must be something special about them then, because every harbor in the world has access to cranes that can be used to install and remove masts. Which makes sense, because this ship is going to need to be serviced and/or repaired basically anywhere on earth.
