This is definitely a good example to use, in my opinion, to show that the idea of 'my vote doesn't matter so I won't bother' is bad - as the article explains, the budget cut was allowed to happen because many of the residents didnt bother to show up to the town hall meetings.

It is good in this case that they had a legal recourse to fix this by getting people who initially didn't bother to be involved in the process to express their opinions.
That's pretty out there. "Habitable" is a pretty low bar, but saying that climate change will cause a collapse of global civilization by 2100 isn't nearly as ridiculous.
> I think there is something wrong with an attitude that children not in school are apparently unable to learn and develop.

Are people saying that, though? My impression is that the worry is "just" that lots of children learn and develop more poorly if not at school. Not to mention that that's in the case of richer societies and societal strata, where parents can take time out of their day (or pay someone to) focus on their children's development. I suspect the the lack of school may indeed be catastrophic in families where parents work 14 hours a day to make ends meet.
Now I don't know how your PHP code was structured, but in my experience there usually three types of mistakes done with error handling in PHP code

1) not properly checking return values from standard library functions

2) not checking correct last error level function after use of standard library function, e.g. json_last_error(), curl_errno() etc

3) different handling of old style errors vs exceptions

This is an unfortunate legacy of PHP, it is messy and error prone.

I'm not a golang programmer but to my understanding is that the golang compiler does not enforce strict error handling, if a function changes its signature to start returning an error when it previously didn't is not something the compiler will warn about. This is unfortunate too.

I never really been a huge fan of exceptions either, but the good thing about exceptions is that they are not silent by default whereas return values can be ignored and therefore errors can missed.

What I'm trying to say is that we need stricter compilers.

My personal style of coding in PHP to avoid hidden bugs is to code in defensive style, where the unhappy path is as important as the happy path, combined with strict type handling where I try to use the type system to detect bugs.
I think it looks kind of terrible to be honest. I'm not surprised at all it's made with flash. It looks like the sort of thing a talentless non-artist who can only make basic shapes like me could manage.

Peppa Pig is much better animated IMO. Or should I say much better drawn. It doesn't have much animation either but the people that do the drawing are clearly better artists.
I firmly believe remote schooling can work well in a pinch and for long periods of time so long as it's done proactively and the school can lean into it and experiment with it as a fully-fledged alternate learning framework. I think much of the trouble with remote learning in the past couple years, especially in the first world where the resources to do this right should have been available, is attributable to bad planning and political pressures. You had school systems which refused to attempt to plan for remote learning and delayed going remote until half the school was out fighting COVID and the administration had to do a rush job to switch. At which point there was neither time nor money for training, equipment, and personnel to make sure that remote learning succeeded. At which point remote learning was failing so badly that a premature return to the classroom was all but necessary, causing another wave of infections and burning out teachers with terrifying efficiency.
This looks massively complicated for what should be a simple app.
Worth mentioning is the Alexandria.org project [0]. It is a non-profit search engine built on data from Common Crawl. The coverage is limited because of Common Crawl, but the relevance is decent. They also provide an API.

I believe one of the biggest impacts toward breaking up Google's monopoly on search is making them open up access to their index, even requiring Google to provide direct API search access for others to build alternative search products. They have a search API today, but it is prohibitively expensive to build on ($5/1000 calls).

I built a fairly popular search engine a couple years back, but the cost of Google's search API and increasing number of bot attacks make it difficult to reason keeping it online.

The sad thing is that none of this was inevitable.

A properly functioning society does not sacrifice the future of its young to protect the old.

We'll be counting the costs of this hysteria for decades to come, when the lives of those "saved" are long over.
> Why would you assume the ideal environment for learning social skills is in a school with children interacting primarily with other poorly developed children?

No one is saying that. The topic under discussion is that being locked inside with your family probably is very very very far from ideal.
This doesn’t seem to detail the simulation of polyacetylene molecules, though.
Disagree.

Humans aren’t perfect.

If some drug addict tells you you should never do drugs do you call them a hypocrite and say “thats an unreasonable standard to hold other people to”?
It's definitely not FTL information transfer. If it were, you'd know. It would probably be on the front page of every newspaper as the biggest scientific discovery of the last century.
Google have actually followed a similar model for like ten years now with like 10,000 temp workers following this 172 manual to essentially as the basis to train a lot of their ranking models.

I am unable to find a source for this. Until now I thought heating up stationary is bad concerning all possible aspects, including emissions.
Do you want to see the reality? Let's gpo to skyrim modding reddit and ask (without flaming) How many hours people spent on setting up mods, reading, downloading, installing, testing, debugging, reinstalling, restarting the game play from zero again.

This could be fixed with "distributions" one big file download one install but keep the tools for people who want the options to customize. But packs are not "legal" and the just recent created collection feature is still buggy. The issue is with the licenses the modders use and the restrictions they put, not the website , I think the website people would want to fix this but they can't.
That and for a more general take on why Japan isn't the heaven-on-earth that weeaboos hold it up to be, I recommend "Japan - a reinterpretation" by Patrick Smith. It has a lot about freedom of the press and the Japanese media landscape, especially the infamous "Kisha Clubs" (self-censoring).
One obvious difference is that 2FA prevents the attacker from taking ownership of the package and distributing a malicious version, vet theoretically prevents installation of the malicious version. The vet approach comes into play much later.

Also, as I mentioned before, there's no evidence whatsoever that the 'vet' approach even works, let alone scales.
Yes, you're probably right. I should clarify I'm speaking purely about what happened during covid and just aim to illustrate that badly thought out remote is worse than even badly thought out in-person.
All the points listed are marketplace issues. What they are really arguing is, "Imagine how easy it would be if the mobile marketplace was really small and niche --- like Librem 5".
If you're a blind programmer, would you rather listen to a summary of each function in a source file or listen to every token on 10x speed and figure it out yourself? I believe that is the point that they are making. Not sure about the programming while biking though, I typically need to concentrate on one task at a time (which is what most multitasking is realistically, just quickly switching between one task at a time).
It was and add-on to a car alarm and controlled via second or third button on the fob. Also 1994.

The most recent in the UK was 11 June, I can confirm I had a negative rate for a few hours then.
Because alien species mate and reproduce, growing exponentially. Hidding a bomb in a building is a much milder menace that causes a damage once.

This would be like using a bomb able to make and disseminate more bombs, each one able to make and disseminate more bombs before exploding. And the iteration runs forever basically.
They should've made school year round for a few years to catch up after COVID lockdowns in my opinion.
I don't have skin in the game but the electromechanical computers of the previous eras were all superb and solid yet digital electronics wiped the market away. Making a simple analogy (sic) I'd say the smart grid thing might be a glimpse of where society is going. Or it might be a marketing fad.
This echoes exactly what's happening all across the US. A small number of extremists have taken over
Impressive, what's the cheat code exactly?
Seems funny to say that under a piece that basically reinforces the traditional "male way of life" (which is rare, in the Guardian, where anything related to men's health is typically covered by women).

Small and independent websites have been taken offline for less. Why should these conglomerates who extinguished the original web be given a free pass? Ban them all, I say.
That’s seems extreme. Nothing wrong with providing medical care to the elderly.
Currently you cannot create indexes through the admin UI, but it's in my todo.

As an alternative, you can always create indexes through DB migrations or add the index directly via the `sqlite3` cli.
Has to be decentralized. Huge data centers need huge amounts of capital
I may be wrong, but as I understand it HTTPS connections typically use an ephemeral key with the certificate used to authenticate the servers identity.

So simply having the certificate does not mean one can read the traffic without conducting a man-in-the-middle attack.

This means that anyone who could read traffic from a HTTPS connection could read it from a HTTP connection just as easy.

The arguement seems to boil down to, everyone uses a master lock, some people can open master locks, please consider leaving your locker unlocked... why?
I don't expect zero energy costs to arrive at the consumers. Prices will artificially be inflated based on demand. The only way for consumers to profit will be to not play the game and go as much off grid as possible. But then you explicitly do not need smart meters.
Erm, 100 km/h / (3.6 (km/h)/(m/s)) * 2 sec ≈ 56 m. (And the rule of thumb you learn in driving school is dividing the speed in km/h by two.)
This tools are a complexity thing , I tried Vortex and did not had good results for me. Why not have the collection in a big installer, then when you install it increase the download counter for all mods , maybe ncrease the endorments for all mods if you like the pack(it might cause drama though).
The plus4 was a hugely underrated home computer. Unfortunately the lack of hw sprites and limited distribution didn't stimulate sw houses to push the limits of the machine.

It's not even a transfer since you can't control the state of the measured atom. It just collapses into one state which happens to also affect the other atom. So you could never choose to transfer actual data
I wonder the same thing, but opposite. Why in the world would windows/linux put their main modifier key all the way in the bottom left? On every keyboard (I have a Moonlander, a Mode65, and Mode80, I map the keys to match a default Mac. So it is like ctrl -> alt -> super.
Most residential plans in the US are either time of day rates or are a tiered flat rate.
The internet was built in the last 10yrs to hyper-personalize everything and silo everybody off into their recommendation zones. I don't see people doing anything other than what they were trained to do by the algorithms they surf.

Of course people think the content they read has been sculpted to their taste or otherwise pushed deliberately in their face.
I don’t think sharding is a big issue for application development. It adds overhead to devops/sre teams though, especially in the case of resharding. I have seen worst issues and overhead to dev team caused by bad table partitioning schemes, not sharding.

Imo the biggest challenge of rdbms in modern saas is hybrid (oltp + olap) query pattern. Any cloud managed service that is going to nail this in a costly efficient manner will become the next mainstream thing.
If you have (in the UK) 30 children being taken out of school at various time for holidays, the it turns into a nightmare of catching up.
Nobody "designs" institutions. They are fought for by factions within the societies. The idea that some benevolent hand will come up with a better design is simply an absurd non sequitur. If there is going to be a significant change to the system, one which alters the political landscape, it is going to have to be fought for. And it will have to overcome bitter resistance from all those who benefit from the current order. To suppose otherwise is to engage in a pure flight of fancy.
The change in plan was supposedly announced using speaker car in Nara that same evening, and was also posted by various people on social media.
Certainly it is ridiculous. That’s not to say there won’t be significant negative consequences.
What is this Shingetsu News Agency? They don't have an English Wikipedia page and searching for them turns up only their own content.

Are they affiliated with communism? North Korea? American progressive movements? None of the above?

Do we know that this isn't two cults bickering?
I think it's actually your comment that is unreflective. Obviously the "established" male approach must have some benefits, if it became dominant over the millennia; so the point is to find an equilibrium where it can continue to exist side by side with other approaches. Saying that it should just be obliterated from existence is unrealistic and unproductive.
For greenfield projects, yes. But for projects where there's already a decent backend API, it's a reasonable approach to use Remix "only" as a BFF.
The question is: is that worse than the advice from marketeers?
I lose things incredibly often too(Like, losing my wallet twice and keys once, all within a 12 month period, going inside and leaving keys in the front door, needing GPS to get home 3 blocks away, etc).

If 2FA was token based as people seem to want it to be, I'd have an issue, but SMS based is enough to keep out the majority of opportunistic attackers while being recoverable. Plus, there's always printable recovery codes with Google at least.
It could be controversial because it's a Korean sect and Abe was a nationalist hardliner whose image was that he would make Japan "proud" again by refreezing relations with China and Korea.

So if he had connections to a Korean sect, and knowing what sects do, the next logical step would be to assume that he was controlled by or at least open to Korean interests, which is the opposite of what people elected him for, and would be a major, major scandal for him and his party.
Protecting the old was never the reasoning.

Democracy can wait a week or two when a man is murdered that way

Freedom means also that you have to earn it, if people can't wait to speculate online about things that are still being investigated, they probably don't deserve it.

What if they waited a bit more before putting Lee Harvey Oswald on the front page of every newspaper? Maybe he would still be alive and we knew a lot more about what really happened.

What if Kennedy assassination happened today, with social media and the "pornography of violence"?

Its almost like when conditions are right, even people we consider normally on the moral side, end up flushing down down the toilet any bit of humanity, because of some 'benefits'. Justification can be as weak as general threat, terrorism, preparing for future 'if something happens'.

With all the great progress in large language models lately, and them being excellent text compressors, I've started to wonder if you couldn't just replace a search engine with a like 100mb file full of weights that let you query essentially google scale results except all locally.
Well I enjoyed Pippi Longstocking, but I wouldn't have thought it would have got into the top 300 and F&E didn't.
I think number 2 is too grandiose. It's probably closer to "change == growth || progress"
You also can't ignore the businesses that pocketed the money instead of paying their employees
Ditto. And when the local robot chorus is pushing a story, I know that's something to ignore.
Sounds like you would be the perfect candidate for virtual schooling.

Leave the in-person schooling for kids and parents that really have no other option.

Remember, for some kids school is the only safe place where they can also get a decent meal. I think it's best if our underfunded teachers focus on those kids instead of working extra to enable your vacation lifestyle.
I don't completely buy the "religious group" reason given by the assassin.

It might just be a convenient cover story for any "State Actors" behind the assassination. Shinzo Abe had been a real thorn in the side of China and North Korea by pushing a hard-line approach towards them. He had tremendous worldwide political/economic clout and was instrumental in establishing the "Pacific Quad" as a real challenge to China and North Korea. Even after stepping down he had been active in drumming up support for his assertive stance against them which obviously wasn't to their liking.

It will be interesting to see what the investigators uncover over time.
it's easy to see, anyone defending in this thread school closures is someone without children attending school, but there are also enlightened childless people who understand how wrong is it even without having children
That's a pretty unhealthy delusion, and I feel for you, the mental anguish must be considerable.

But it's a falsehood, and it becomes a lie when you share it, so maybe keep your delusions to yourself next time.
If children are not in school being indoctrinated/babysat/prepared for adulthood then they will whither on the root. Children have no innate curiosity or desire to develop. That is at least the conventional wisdom.
... and after having spent more than 50 pages in describing the experiment and its results and analyzing any number of (wild) guesses, the researchers actually talked to 15 (fifteen) people of the 5,000 (five thousand) involved in the experiment and half of them told the researchers how the money was not enough:

>Indeed, after the study concluded, we conducted qualitative interviews with 15 participants, where—among other things—we asked them how much money they would have needed to receive for it to have made a difference in their lives at that time. About half of participants indicated that they would have needed to receive more than $2,000, with those responses falling between $4,000
and $25,000. Although this is by no means a representative sample or ideal methodology, these responses may at least be indicative of the general order of magnitude needed.

How surprising is it that someone who is living at the poverty level or under it when given a "small" amount of money (no matter if 500 or 2,000) after one month has spent it?
On a new car? No. In fact the Toyota owner's manual warned against after-market undercoatings. The dealer was trying to do something that the manufacturer warned against.
So? They pass the relevant tests, they move up. They fail, they get held back.

Surely there is a middle ground between kid missing half the school year and a week of vacation.
do you have children attending school?
It is not that easy, you can't just 1 click install, The corect way is

1 read each mod description, recent comments and bugs

2 install it exactly as described

3 always test, start the game teleport around

4 repeat

The issue is mods can conflict, and this conflicts cause crashes and most of the time there is no clue who is at fault, debugging crashes is very time consuming, try to Google "Skyrim CTD" you will see how many hours, energy and peace was lost because of this.

This new Collection feature is an attempt to automate some of this steps, it is an improvement but is not the correct solution.

It also does not solve the issue where some old mod has a bug but is illegal for me to publish a fixed version, at most I might be able to create a patch then create a list of instructions on how to get the original mod and patch it.

At BrowserUp we built the first DRY (don't repeat yourself) load testing tool. The rough idea:

* Most orgs take a sprint to write load tests in a separate tool/language (Jmeter, for example).

* Re-using integration and end-to-end tests or even Postman requests for load lets you release fully tested software sooner

* Let your teams use the language and tool they know to write the tests, then we containerize and scale that in your EC2 account, because by-the-minute hardware is cheap, dev-hours spent in Jmeter are expensive.

* The dev teams/QA folk can do testing rather than waiting for the "Jmeter" specialist

Let me know if you would like a demo
Looking at the DoJ's indictment of Assange -- they stated:

The indictment also charges Assange for his posting of a narrow subset of classified documents on WikiLeaks that allegedly identified the names of human sources—including local Afghans and Iraqis who were assisting U.S. forces in theater, and those of journalists, religious leaders, human rights advocates, and political dissidents living in repressive regimes. Assange thereby is alleged to have created grave and imminent risk to their lives and liberty.

Depends on the utility/state. Some have different rates depending on time of day. Where I live does not. We pay a straight per kwh rate regardless of when used and how “spikey” our pattern is. The total per month is segregated into tiers, so the per kwh rate is incrementally higher as your total consumption climbs.
