> But you've misunderstood it from your first comment, where you wrongly said it is a "criminal offence" when done here in England which is just entirely wrong.

No, I never wrote that that abortion was always a criminal offence. I wrote:

Abortion is not on demand and any abortion that does not satisfy the legal criteria can thus be a criminal offence.

It is no more than a statement of fact. This the law.

"Mental health" is a very fuzzy term and it is not enough to say it to make so. It's just that at the moment no-one wants to create trouble on this and are indeed turning a blind eye by taking the approach you mention. But if for some reason authorities want to create trouble then they could just use the law as it stands as well. And indeed there are calls to decriminalise abortion because it isn't in law.
Or looked at another way, a healthy functioning democracy that actively debates extremely contentious issues and settles them via legal process instead of violence.

So, you're welcome.

It’s one of the oddest things about American “democracy” — if you survey people how they feel about medical treatment you will overwhelmingly get “medical decisions should be made by the doctor and patient [1] full stop and if a doctor prescribes it insurance pays for it no questions asked” but because the people with the real influence are insurance companies and the most politically involved are niche political groups that want to weaponize medical care for varying agendas we get minority rule.

[1] Minor asterisk being that in the case of minors blue tribe says child can override parent and red tribe says parent can override child. But that’s the bike shed when we’re all basically in agreement about the nuclear power plant dammit.
> I can easily assume that you haven't worked in a warehouse.

I have, on multiple warehouse floors, for around 3 years cumulatively.

Meanwhile, it's obvious you're projecting your own inexperience. Maybe you're the one who should actually set foot in a warehouse before commenting.

> They mostly are terrible.

Then I'm sure you'd consider any job away from an air-conditioned office to be terrible.

Warehouse work is certainly hard work; picking and packing certainly entail being physically active. I won't pretend it's immune to asshole bosses or that injuries never happen; that's the nature of manual labor under capitalism. It's still vastly preferable to outright abusive job sectors like retail or restaurant work or customer service; I'll take walking 5+ miles through a pick path or packing 50+ boxes all day (even with leads and sups breathing down my neck over my numbers) long before I'd consider subjecting myself to snotty asshole customers berating me over their own ineptitude.

Amazon is the exception, not the rule. Warehouse workers outside of Amazon could certainly be paid better - all workers could and should, in many many sectors - but this assertion that a megacorporation with a specific reputation for abuse is somehow representative of an entire job sector is one of those baseless assertions that demonstrates considerable ignorance and inexperience.
> Unfortunately, it seems a subset of monitors have a strangely broken behavior where, when waking up from standby, they will virtually disconnect their inputs a few seconds later, then connect them again.

I'd be curious to know whether disabling "EUP Compliance"/"EUP Deep Sleep" mode resolves this issue.

The long and short of it is that the EU passed some idle power requirements that monitor companies found difficult (or expensive?) to implement and it's caused basically a decade of weird bugs in PCs, docks, and other hardware. To hit the power target they put the monitor into a really really deep sleep state and some of the implementations don't always wake up properly, or do weird things as they wake back up and restart.

(this occurs even on some premium monitors and brands... my Dell P2715Q is a very high-end monitor for its day and it has bad issues with freezing after wakeup!)

This is the source of the classic "my monitor sometimes won't wake up after my PC goes to sleep, until I cycle the power to the monitor" and "all my desktop icons reshuffle themselves after sleep" and I suspect also the root cause of many "displayport issues" with thunderbolt docks.

I think EUP power draw is also why many monitors "disconnect themselves" when idle... from the perspective of the PC it's in a deep enough state it's not even responding. This is legal behavior according to the spec, it's not incorrect to do so, but it's not required, and it confuses the PC which obviously now thinks the monitor is disconnected.

I don't have any fine-grain knowledge of exactly what they are doing when they wake up but... rebooting the monitor as a method to wake it up from a deep-sleep state wouldn't surprise me all that much. It would explain the "desktop icons shuffling themselves" failure mode, windows sees a disconnected monitor (even for a second) and goes to the fallback virtual monitor (640x480 res), that's the classic behavior for a disconnected monitor, and rebooting explains why it would disconnect.

Apologies to the planet, I wish it wasn't implemented so poorly, but, turning off EUP Deep Sleep is pretty much the first thing you should do when you buy a monitor.
Sounds like all microsoft licensing. Its ridiculously complicated and even the dedicated people hired to handle JUST that for you will often be confused or not up to date.
Laws are only as meaningful as we allow them to be. If our elected representatives no longer represent the will of the people, they must be removed to preserve the integrity of our society. Often they are not, which is unfortunate.

Just look at the body of unelected officials that, as a whole, are hell-bent at dismantling precedents in the name of constitutionalism, allowing for states to pass inane laws restricting rights under the guise of morals.

There is cancer in our society and it begins with our swill laws that are selectively enforced, are never revisited, and likely do not reflect the will of the people, and ends with legislative incumbents that do not represent modern progressive values.

I don't know about the mind uploading... but the fact that device is applying electric shocks to a person's body and physically destroying them is a massive problem. Any respectable mind uploading would leave the original in-tact. A standard autopsy of the person's body would discover the site of electrocution and the damage associated with it, incriminating the "huckster" under at least "gross negligence" (the only crime for which mens rea is not necessary) up to first degree murder.
Schools have adult supervision already and don't need parental surveillance. Kids are most often molested/influenced by someone close, and internet only expands that reach. If you think parents doing their job is the primary problem here, I'm frankly a bit surprised. The truth is nothing is private, so better get used to it.

I never used the internet until my mid-twenties, and it hasn't held my technology career back in the slightest.

No. A lot of things are crawled with RSS. With pubmed for example you can set up search terms as rss feeds.
Depends on what your use case is and what you consider worth.

In terms of hardware, M1s are portable, and battery life is great IF you use sparse apps that don't hog up the cpu all the time (running Slack, VSCode, and a bunch of docker containers isn't going to make your battery last anywhere close to advertised, although still respectable). The processor is great, but not significantly faster than competitors at similar price points. External monitor support sucks, external hubs are annoying, keyboard is good but not the best. Long term repairability is also probably not a thing, Apple wants you to buy a new laptop instead.

Software wise, this is personal preference on what you like/want or dislike. Personally, having used Mac OS for work on my work issued M1, I still prefer Linux every time. The two main reason is being able to run a lightweight tiling windows manager like i3wm that starts up way faster than Mac's UI, and not having to deal with permission system for things like camera, microphone, e.t.c.

If you don't travel often, I still maintain that the best possible use of 2 grand for computer is to build a desktop for around $1500, monitor included, and then get a cheap used laptop.
I'd be completely sympathetic if the commercial entities were willing to work with (or had tried) and strike a reasonable compromise with TIA. Instead, they've chosen to go for blood and sue a valuable, well-intentioned organization who tried to help folks have access to information during the pandemic.

There is no end to the greed. Fuck 'em.
There are several questionable claims and viewpoints in this post. This is one I felt worthy of addressing because information to the contrary is not widely known:

> RSS is one-way publishing; there is no way for content creators and their audience to interact

Not true. Feeds support a byline for each post item. This typically contains the author's name. You can, though, also include an email address there. For readers that are also mail clients, those readers* can allow the user to "reply to" a given feed item (in the same way that your mail client lets you reply to a message sitting in your mailbox). I know of very few feeds, however, where people actually include a reply-to address. It's a network/ecosystem problem.

* or any other reader that wishes to allow invoking the user's default mail client
agreed. All the size is diluting the sugars. Tomatoes don't taste the same as they used to
> For an espresso, 1-2 weeks old is totally fine (even preferred?), but for pourovers the flavor is totally different even just 8-9 days after roasting.

Most sources suggest that the optimum flavor profile develops about a week after roasting, and drinking coffee brewed from freshly roasted beans to be comparatively flat tasting. Blind taste tests have also suggested that contrary to the popular belief, beans don't go stale after two weeks, but retain the same taste profile almost out to 6 months (assuming proper storage). The key difference is that older beans are completely degassed, and pourover techniques and drawdown times as well as grind size should be adjusted accordingly, something hard to do in most espresso machines but easy with pourover. An immersion brewing method is also less sensitive to degassing.

Yeah... Google has no experience with global distributed operations, data centers and applications at all. Neither does Microsoft, they probably don't even know what a entwork is, am I right?

Seriously though. AWS isn't the end all, be all here and there are incredibly smart and talented network and systems engineers at many companies. The UX for AWS is often pretty bad, and it's sometimes difficult to know HOW to configure something, even if you know WHAT to configure. Like allowing a higher usage threshold for redis caching instead of trying to keep 50% of memory open by default. You can find the actual redis configuration option, how to set it in AWS, who knows (at least when I was using it). At this point DynamoDB's autoscaling is probably a much better experience, but getting it to grow/shrink appropriately was very painful at one point.

On Azure, some of the simpler services are some of the easiest to use and get started with... Data* (Tables, Queues, Blobs) in particular.

Of the three, I found Google's Cloud the most interesting to deal with.

All of that said, I don't think any of them are incapable of correcting course and making things better... but it's easy enough to let things get worse. I think Amazon's biggest problem is they now have so many competing and overlapping services, it's become harder to even know what's right. Same for Azure to an extent...

I am finding DigitalOcean's offerings to be compelling and may find myself trying that path with a project, or at least part of a project in the future.

Likewise --- I understand you're passionate about the issue and feel your spouse has been ripped off. I think we should pay teachers much more. I just don't think it is likely to improve education much, and most of the benefit will be in the far future. [I do think improving working conditions will have an immediate benefit, though].

> Some places, there are five private schools in a 30-minute drive that charge $40+k/yr and are all pretty good or even excellent

Far, far in excess of that here.

> there are five private schools in a 30-minute drive and they all charge $12k/yr or less and are all terrible (but do cater to religious and/or political preferences)

And we have a bunch of those, too.

There's a huge selection effect: when you choose the students A) who can earn a scholarship, or B) whose parents will sacrifice to pay tuition at a non-sectarian school, you're basically selecting for the families who value education.

I'm reminded of research that shows that students at lottery charter schools outperform students at neighboring public schools... but then the students who enter but lose the lottery also outperform the general student population at those schools.

I believe we have very good educators and we have a whole lot of things we're doing right. But we also have a whole lot of things that are just fundamentally easier or better in our environment. Almost entirely, the behavior problems I confront are students getting a little excessively exuberant or otherwise out of hand, not wanting to misbehave.
Inflation is coming down! The Fed's interest rate increases are finally making overpriced assets come back down, the dollar is regaining value.

Oh you mean the only prices that matter are leaf-node employee wages? You wanted inflation in people asking for raises to fall, leaving market capitalizations totally out of the basket? Hahaha.

In many ways the guy flipping burgers at McDonalds understands the economy better than any Nobel Prize economist. During Trump, he knew things were pretty good, there was competition between employers for employees, nobody was unemployed, you were getting by and there would be no recession because they wouldn't switch jobs or ask for a raise. I've never asked for a raise, or switched jobs. I understand the important thing is to have an income, though small, that is profitable. Something, some income coming in, in America that gives you status based on either being employed or not. It's an incentive to lose money on shit jobs, like credit score, a good little bitch rewards program.
The core theme of cyberpunk is social complexity introduced by technology, and individual empowerment through the use of that technology to fight back against either an overreaching state (a response to the complexity) and/or ubiquitous hyper-corporations (built on the technology). Blade Runner has the setting and aesthetic style, but thematically it's a miss.

Here are the changes I would make to Blade Runner to make it more cyberpunk:

* Roy Batty should be the main character, and more sympathetic.

* The social impact of replicants should be explored; replicants should exist on Earth, and the attitudes of the wider population shown.

* Rather than "dude with a gun chases him", Roy's oppression should be visibly systematic and ideally technological (tracking beacons, iris scanners, kiosks refusing to work for him etc) and rather than violence and brute force his response should be clever exploits of weaknesses in the system.

Having a smooth board seems at odds with having a large surface area for heat transfer, doesn't it? And wouldn't laminar flow also have less movement near the surface? For optimal cooling, would you actually want turbulence to mix the layers? Instead of mounting fans at different angles, add some vanes or even duct work to aim and accelerate the flow where it needs to transfer heat.

But, given that boards do not have completely standardized layouts, it seems like you eventually need to assume a forest of independent heat sinks sticking up in the air. You lose the commodity market if everything has to be tailor made, like the integrated heat sink and heat pipe systems in laptops.

I'm sure they expected it and have a plan. Copyright as a lot of flexibility in the wording around it's laws and this could be deemed fair use. Previously the flexibility has been used by the copyright industry to increase their rent seeking but it doesn't have to always go that way.
I agree with your “You can’t just decide to take the law into your own hand” when doing so hurts or damages someone else. So I would agree with you not being able to hold someone detained in an unofficial jail just because they stole from you, or not being able to physically hurt someone that hurt you unless it’s self defense (so you do that to stop them from hurting you as they’re doing that). However, in cases like this, where you feel that the law is somehow unfair and needs to change, and you breaking it doesn’t actually hurt anyone, it feels like civil disobedience to me. So sure, there are consequences and you need to be ready to face them, but one possible outcome is your case helping change the law after all. A lot of progress has been made in democracies with that method.

Just think that if people would never take the law in their hands some countries would still have legal slaves, or legal segregation.

No, I'd prefer not to have to do that either. That's not a choice, though, is it? People are gonna have kids when they aren't ready for them, it's reality.

Here's the simplicity. In making a child, two people are more responsible than anyone else. Both of those people, once the child is born, have a greater responsibility financially for that child than anyone else. Letting one of them leave and abrogate that responsibility would unequally apply the responsibility to the rest of society, and that is unacceptable to me.

Accidents happen, mistakes happen, bad things happen, all that can be dealt with. There's no need to enshrine a right to abandon.

I think it could be really useful to have a new interactive streaming protocol focused on being lightweight and fast loading with high compression, but for VR devices and 3d interfaces.

It could also be streaming in data from multiple peers, content-oriented. Focus on efficient, small modules describing scenes and programs.
