I’d love to see someone brave enough to marge north east jersey and lower Connecticut into NYC and connect them with proper transit, pretty much merge LIRR, Path and MTA under one NYC administered transit system, then add some high speed rail along the old train lines.

Then make all public transit free and turn half of the roads into bus, pedestrian and bike only paths.
a lotta yall still dont get it. ape holders can use multiple slurp juices on a single ape. so if you have 1 astro ape and 3 slurp juices you can create 3 new apes.
If by "he" you mean Turing, then no, not in the sense that Pearson, Galton, or Fisher would be considered eugenicists today. Nor in the sense that Charles Davenport, who ran CSHL and the Eugenics Office, would be considered a eugenicist today.

Not sure about Alexander, I don't really pay attention to what he writes about medical biology.

You can say exactly the same thing for a sphere. Really a sphere is just the skin, but in practice people will use phrases like "within the sphere" etc.. So it really doesn't matter, when it does people refer to the "boundary" of it or will just write some equations.
> You'll go through various non-random battles with trainers which have Pokemon with no random moveset whatsoever.

In my experience though, most of those trainers are easily avoidable if you don't want to deal with them.

I think that's what I'm going for. They're there as "grinds" if your the type of player who wants to capture a whole lot of experience points and/or money throughout the game. But if you're "against the grind", then you simply walk away from those trainers, and they'll never challenge you.

There's exceptions of course. You must fight the gym leaders (each with a specialization on a particular typing. Brock for Rock, Misty for Water, etc. etc., ensuring forced diversity through the game). And the Elite 4 at the end force you to fight against 4 trainers (again with elemental specialties), before facing the champion (who breaks the mold and fights with a well balanced, supported team across multiple elements/typings)

--------

In Sword/Shield, its an explicit strategy to run away from fights in fact. You're not really expected to fight against the most powerful Pokemon, and Poke-dolls (aka: run away from fights) are plentiful.

Russia's war against Ukraine. I thought that a full scale war in Europe was out of the question, yet it started - and there is no end in sight :-( And now we are entering some kind of recession, due to this madness.

I mean a lot of people used to believe, that history is moving in a direction of progress, as we had some seventy-six years without a major war in Europe (well, not counting the civil war in former Yugoslavia) - however now it seems, that we aren't any better than we used to be.

And there are all these nukes to worry about, when we almost forgot about them.

It now looks as if history is moving in cycles, that's kind of depressing.

Not sure frankly how a Craigslist for "ownership" of jpegs needs so many employees.

Literally what are they doing.

Having said that I do give them props for the generous severance and keeping healthcare going way longer than they have to. That's surprised me. Ironically the only positive thought I've ever had about that company is the way it executed a layoff.
One thing this thread has reminded me of is that for all the lip service conservatives pay to toughness and manly traditional gender roles, they certainly seem to live in abject terror of being the victim of a crime.
Yes, it does. POST data with `Content-Type: application/x-www-form-urlencoded` uses the same encoding format as query parameters in a URL -- `foo=a&bar=b` -- hence the name.
I would say your question could be restated as "why are government services bad". I think government services are bad because they are the ultimate monopoly. Their funding is guaranteed regardless of quality of service (it comes from the government), and their customer base and revenue is guaranteed regardless of quality of service (if you need a visa, you've gotta use them). So why should anyone make it better? Who benefits? Some people who are going to use it anyway even if it sucks.
It's a huge problem on some large dev slacks I am part of and one I used to help run. Someone will join and DM every existing member with a sob story about how he cannot join upwork because of his country of origin and asking to use theirs in exchange for 10% of profits he makes.

Not sure if anyone actually responds positively to these DMs but I guess if they do it feeds into the same scam.

In addition to statistical evidence people should really examine the plausibility of the mechanism in question. Most accounts of ESP have no description of how it might actually work. The theories are typically dualistic, vitalistic and even plain magical.
For an American tourist visa (B1/B2) for example, you can apply again if you are rejected, but you must show that a tangible change in circumstances has occurred since your previous application (ie funds, reason for visiting, better proof of ties back to home). Re-using a previous application may communicate "all you need to do to try again is just pay again" which consumes embassy resources that need to be spent on other applicants. Making you fill it all out again adds just enough friction to make sure you've actually had some circumstantial change to warrant a reapplication

The context is the next sentence.

"do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your giving may be in secret."

It's just hyperbolic/poetic language. It's not possible to do something in such a way that your right hand doesn't know what your left hand is doing, because they are both connected centrally (and they can't know anything to begin with).

"Be so secretive that your resting hand doesn't know what your charitable hand is doing."
Yes we would have run thru the forests of the world in record speed. Simply moved factories after trees until they're all gone.

Railroads would have been running on wood until we ran out, ditto with steam ships.

Electric wind turbines would have become the major electric energy source very early on. Solar would still be 50-100 years off.

Bioethanol would have become a big thing before 1900, same energy content as coal, so maybe even before we ran out of tree. However as so much land area would be dedicated to growing bioethanol, the food glut we've had sine 1950 would not have occurred, so global population would be substantial smaller.

Isn't "just build more" what we've been doing for decades, and exactly how we got into the situation we're in now?
Thanks for the detailed reply. I am super excited about 4.0, I eagerly read the alpha update blog posts when they appear in my RSS reader :D

I am probably most excited about the gdscript 2.0 features. As someone who currently maintains a fairly large codebase as a solo developer, I cannot imagine writing that in gdscript. I rely heavily on C#'s type safety and more "industrial strength" tooling — a strong standard library, huge ecosystem of tested open source C# modules (e.g. NuGet), great external IDE support (I use Rider), and a lot of language features like generics and interfaces.

Btw on the UI stuff... I definitely remember being very confused about that when I first got started. Now, I actually do see the benefits of having 3 separate modes — it "does the hard work for you" when you want to put UI in screen space vs world space. But yeah Unity's UI system isn't good... and, like seemingly everything else in Unity's, it's apparently deprecated yet it's proclaimed replacement (UI Toolkit) isn't production-ready. Sigh...

Because it is meant as an offense. It is designed to make it plain that our input is not welcome.

The whole idea is to belittle someone else, and stop them from coming to you, with their ideas.

To be fair, there are people who get waaaaayyyy too obsessed with "not a problems." I have worked with many of them, over the years. In fact, I just got off a video call with one that suggested that we scrap our entire, near-ship-ready app, because we are not sure how well it will scale for millions of users, and it is highly doubtful that it will have more than a few thousand users, for the next three or four years.

This is an app that has been under development for two years, and is looking very good.

I completely understand why what I said to Marketing was not received well. Part of it was practicality. Changing course is difficult, expensive, and risky. Even a high-level person would be crazy to do it on a whim.

But the bigger part was ego. I know the people involved. In this community, tecchies are valued and listened to, but, if you are a small, technical team, in a marketing/sales/service company, you get used to being treated like Moss and Roy.

What is a good idea, though, is to evaluate who is bringing the news, and what it would take to start examining the issue. If my company had done that, then they would have been well-prepared.

That's something that many companies are spectacularly bad at.

Instead, they stuck their fingers in their ears, and sang "La-la-la-I-can't-hear-you."
> The problem is that adding any sort of platform support to an open source engine is completely incompatible with the license terms of the console SDKs.

There is a port of SDL2 to Nintendo Switch that is accessible to anyone that has a distribution agreement signed with Nintendo. There's no reason Godot couldn't have the same kind of support there.
Dunder Methods
After looking through the docs it has grown on me, even with the quirkiness of the Hypertalk-style syntax. Personally I tend to write stuff code-up (instead of template-down), which is a good match for React. But I can imagine using this with my daughter, who has learned to write some static HTML and this could be a fairly easy way to add some fun interactivity to those pages.

I wish there was something that could put it all together though. Replit and Glitch handle some of the editing and hosting, but not much else... no tools for content creation or asset management, only minimal linting, and not much help in tracing the rendered page back to the original source. Like moving towards that Hypercard experience of taking an element, flipping it over, and adding code to it. It's doable! But I haven't seen it done. Or at least I'd like to see something that's taken a few more steps in that direction...

Courts only decided the monkey couldn't copyright the photo (the PETA case).

The copyright office claimed works created by a non-human aren't copyrightable at all when they refused Slater, but that was never challenged or decided in court. It's not a slam dunk, since the human had to do something to set up the situation and he did it specifically to maximize the chance of the camera recording a monkey selfie.

If I set up a rube goldberg machine to snap the photo when the wind blows hard enough, how far removed from the final step do I have to get before it's not me owning the result anymore? That's the essence of the case, had it gone to court, probably the essence here too.

My guess is the creativity needed for the prompt would make the output at least a jointly derived work regardless of any assignment disclaimers--pretty sure you can't casually transfer copyright ownership outside a work for hire agreement, only grant licenses--but IANAL and that's just a guess.

I use several different browsers. I have one completely locked-down (no images, js, cookies, etc), exceptions by whitelist-only + host blocking. That one is used for most of my daily browsing. I use a separate browser for anything that requires webapps or cookies, and an entirely different computer for anything financial or important. The only problem I have is occasionally being frustrated by how bad the Chrome and Firefox UIs are compared to literally anything else, or even themselves a few years ago.
I guess so. My point was that neither Unity nor John Riccitiello can take credit for being particular direct in this whole affair - they produced the exact same vapid PR phrases just one submission earlier.

Also, what another poster said still applies: "blunt" language may appear to be more honest, but it really isn't. You can lie or misrepresent while being blunt just as well as with twisted PR phrases.

E.g., maybe it's John's deep belief that game devs should build their games around monetization from the start and so he made the merger to empower his users to do that - or maybe, he made the merger because it was a lucrative business decision for Unity and his "blunt advice" is just him trying to sell that move to his userbase.

Your example isn't a threat because there is no external/conscious actor who is going to cause your body to grow weak and sick if you don't take care of it; it will just happen as a consequence of normal biological processes.

There need not be a consequence of failing to follow the Christian Bible; God/Satan have decided that there will be consequences, and Satan will be the one torturing you if you don't do what God says. That's definitely a threat. In these stories, God and Satan are conscious, sentient beings with free will. They can choose to reward or punish you based on whatever criteria they've decided.

In Wisconsin we set the AC to 78 in the summer. We tried doing that when we moved to Florida. Couldn't do it. Had to go down to 72, 74 max, because of the humidity. There's just too much moisture in the air and we have to set the thermostat that low to make sure it gets removed from the air.
In my view, it's not (directly) because of the post-war optimism. That period saw great advances in almost every area of life. It's the period of stagnation that followed that's causing the hangovers. In the political and social arena, we stopped innovating in the 80's. We were just coasting on the stuff we built before, without clear direction and without new goals. Everything we had was "good enough".

Except that we didn't work to maintain what we had. Education systems were gutted, public infrastructure was sold off to the highest bidder (Bayh-Dole act, every privatization of government services that followed), maintenance was deferrred (many roads and bridges are deteriorating in both Europe and the USA, 80% of nuclear plants in operation today will reach EOL in roughly ten years without replacement).

Yes, periods of prolonged prosperity aren't unique, and they always end in one of two ways: destruction or decadence. Take your pick.

for almost a hundred years we've seen each generation get wealthier

This isn't true. The last generation to be wealthier than their parents were the baby boomers: https://www.visualcapitalist.com/charting-the-growing-genera... . The average wealth per person has been decimated since then: Generation X is only half as wealthy as baby boomers, while the average millennial is ten times less wealthy than a boomer. And this isn't just because of their current age:

> In 1989, Baby Boomers and Generation X under 40 accounted for 13% of household wealth, compared to just 5.9% for Millennials and Generation Z under 40 in 2020.

So in 30 years time, the younger generation lost over half its wealth to the older generation.
