> The prosecutor charged him with burglary on the basis that it had the same maximum (25 year) sentence as attempted murder but a much lower burden of proof.

Not doubting your story, but this seems like a very weird reason to me; there's no reason they couldn't be charged with both, and it's extremely common for juries to return different verdicts for each charge when a defendant is charged with multiple. I'd be interested to see statistics about whether charging someone with murder along with burglary results in fewer convictions for the burglary charge, because it doesn't seem super obvious that it would be the case; I would think that the idea that the jury could "split" the verdict by convicting on the lesser charge if they were having trouble coming to an agreement and the fact that alleging someone is an attempted murderer is a stronger reprimand than just calling them a burglar would at least somewhat act as a counterbalance to the chance that the jury would decide to render a not guilty verdict on the burglary charge because they doubted the story due to the murder charge.
This is a pretty unusual set up. The title should probably be "how I use Nix on macOS".

For folks unfamiliar with Nix, this is a fairly atypical and complicated setup. It's honestly pretty smooth sailing normally.
It says at the top of the image, "Drought in France". I'd say the 'redder' is really 'browner' in this case, indicating a lack of greenery due to drought.
The problem with blockchain implementation is that most of them still rely on us to trust someone. It is not implemented in the distributed self hosted way people think. The top hacker news submission about Web 3 (blockchain) points out that NFTs and other blockchain technologies are centralized and reliant on trusting someone in practice [1][2].

Is 100M for a game from Blizzard supposed to sound impressive?

At $70 per copy, a game only has to sell a couple of million copies to clear $100M, right?

I feel like a brand new Diablo game should easily clear a couple of million copies in the first couple of months.

The main difference is the long tail for the AAA title versus free to play model, but if it's only making 100M right now I doubt the long tail is good for Diablo Immortal.

First time I've seen "DX". Developer experience, I assume from context?

That's an awesome term and I'm going to steal it.
DirectX is not obvious.

DirectX is a collection of libraries, mostly for game programming, they all used to start with "Direct": Direct3D, DirectPlay, DirectSound, DirectDraw,...

Now, DirectX is mostly just Direct3D, for other components, is a bit of a mess, especially since it overlaps with the Xbox branding and components.

Wow I don't know what's crazier... that OS X still has finger or that it's had it this whole time and I never noticed. I remember fondly the early days of the internet when "finger `cat /etc/passwd`@remotehost" and other similar types of exploits had ridiculously high hit rates. And of course no shadowed password files yet.

Yes.

First - this is the kind of thing that's typically handled and driven by 'the legal department'. They think differently, act differently, for non obvious reasons.

Second - 'fighting' is a form of aggression no doubt and suggest most people avoid that and confrontation esp. people like Rogers. I can see him rationalizing it's just not worth the effort, I mean, it depends a lot on the proportionality of the situation. Was someone handing out leaflets in 'nowhere USA'? Or was there a National Convention?

I cans see Rogers wanting to do something like wanting to call them and talk to them, and his lawyers saying 'no, that's not how it works, better to send them a firm letter from a reputable law firm, we'll take care of it' etc..
you're definitely the most qualified to do a js-framework-benchmark implementation. it's pretty odd that this hasnt been done given how much the marketing leans on performance claims.

As has been pointed out to you many times before, there is no need to use batteries to store utility-scale energy, so battery production capacity is immaterial. Mentioning battery production of the moment again is disingenuous, not to say dishonest. Production capacity, anyway, increases with demand.

The key principle of bulk energy storage is E = Fx, applied liberally worldwide for centuries. It is taught to every freshman engineering student. Nothing blocks further application of the principle, at any scale.

And as has been pointed out numerous times, no existing alpine lake is needed for hydro storage. And, the site does not need substantial "transportation infrastructure". Dozens of hydro dams, still in use, were built in California's Sierra Nevada mountains in the 1920s via roads a car cannot use.
Maybe I’m weird, but I hate being lectured, to the point where I’d much prefer physical pain towards me (within reason of course).

Jenkins is also making sure to see it through by trying to hand it off to the stat AG. She should've never been involved in the first place.

Nope. Haakh has historically been associated with good income because it was never cheap. Haakh-batte is sign of good fortunes even if people might indicate they are not.

Lotus roots are like 300-350 inr /kg. That is more expensive than chicken which is around 200 and cottage cheese (pander) which is also at around 250.

Lotus roots is called nadru (nadur) while the last one I can't place.

Potatoes are very cheap, food for the masses. Like 20/kg. And it has been there for ever. Onions and tomatoes get seasonal price hikes but they are also generally affordable.

I am talking about a time when Kashmiris used to have meat once a year and that was not some 200 year old story but just 50 short years ago. The oil was being bought at the quantity of 50-100ml on a daily/weekly basis because no one could afford a litre or 5 of it at once. (Til veain) or oil sellers used to sell oil like currently our milk retailers do.
That seems obvious to me that they absolutely don't want crypto. If it's stablecoins they're after then what they really want is USD, so badly that they'll use whatever shady unregulated crypto bank sells it to them.

I'm not sure it's reasonable to expect someone to do that work, or even have the tools or data sources to do that work.

Sure, I think it's reasonable to expect people to provide sources to support ideas when possible, but it's a little unreasonable to expect people to do extensive first-party research to support their opinions.

I think there's value in the discussion either way. Most of the time I don't think we're going to change people's minds with this sort of discussion, but I do enjoy seeing what people's positions are on these sorts of topics, and find that I learn things from it.

Tor does not work in China. I was once tried to setup my own Tor Bridge on a VPS, the VPS ended up got blocked after just few days of use (actual time of use is more like 30 minutes).

If Putin really wants to, he can just buy the tech from China, and Xi is more than happy to sell since it gives him a grip on Russia.

Tor is not an anti-censorship tool all by itself, it's just a privacy protection tool. An anti-censorship program will have features that obscures it's traffic pattern, not 512-bytes fix-sized frames (cells).

Also I want to point out that, even through the firewall might allow the traffic through, it does not mean that the user is undetected. As the firewall might record the behavior and notify law enforcement to manually investigate the usage.

How 1 Vietnamese Village Is Keeping an 800-Year-Old Paper-Making Tradition Alive
Your argument is basically "it's meat propaganda, here's my personal anecdote to prove it".

Here's my anecdote: I was vegetarian (not even vegan!) for a whole year. I was careful to eat a balanced diet, a lot of beans, legumes, veggies, green leaves. Very little sugar and alcohol. I was constantly tired (I thought it would go away after a month or 2), had many physical injuries and was irritable, where I'm usually quite calm.

I decided vegetarianism was not for me. Now I still care about my diet but not enough to actually try to balance nearly as much. I eat a lot more sugar (trying to reduce but it's hard when you have a sweet tooth) and even the occasional alcohol. I'm a lot older than then, and yet I'm generally more rested, stronger, have better focus and injuries don't take as long to recover.

Does that prove vegetarianism is bad and eating meat is the only way? Is vegetarianism just anti-meat propaganda? Absolutely not.

> Excessive RAM usage and slow startup create limitations and increase costs.

I'm not big on Java, but that's really a runtime issue, not so much a language issue. If Oracle really wanted to optimize Java, I feel like they could do that.

Also, I'm skeptical on the "increase costs" claim. The reason Java "worked" at the turn of the century was because corporations would gladly reduce developer time for the tradeoff of spending more on hardware if they needed performance.

The most performant solution would be writing assembly. Everything above assembly is a trade-off, C/C++/Java/Go/Python, etc.
> Frankly, it's not even worth replying to this disingenuous goalpost-moving and "firehose of falsehoods" tactic. I've linked an informative resource above for anyone interested in factual debate on this topic.

You're not responding because there's no response. The Russians are killing, raping civilians and committing genocide in Ukraine.

There is no reason for Russias war of aggression other then because they want to capture a country that they claim doesn't even exist.

There's insurmountable evidence that the Russians aren't avoiding civilian casualties and that they are using them to inflict a terror campaign on Ukraine as a whole.

There is no goalpost moving, there is only the truth.

I will admit I haven't seen Russia's supporters accuse other people of using the "Firehose of Falsehood" before, but then again it was only a matter of time really as Russia and its supporters accuse others of doing what they/it does.

Spent a terrible amount of time hunting down C++ bottlenecks. It has almost never been about unintended copying of structs or classes.

It usually boils down to someone assuming that a particular collection or algorithm won't be on the critical path, and using a lazy O(N^2) solution. Then the codebase grows, use cases shift, someone puts another O(N^2) algorithm around an existing O(N^2) and the whole thing explodes.

Adding proper caching and switching to N*log(N) algorithms usually brings a DRAMATIC improvement (like 100x faster), while trying to squeeze out every unnecessary copy will only squeeze out about 10% of complexity.
I think this is because launchd+getty and systemd+agetty are doing something similar in those circumstances? They're both opening pseudo-terminals with the login command. That is to say, opening Terminal.app connects to a 'network' PTS much like SSH does, afaict.
Yes, they'd get retracted if caught and be a black mark / destroy a career if someone did something like this and it was proven they intentionally faked it.

What often happens though is that the paper will get retracted but then the authors play hot potato in blaming different people for faking it and it turns into a whole mess where you don't always know (i.e. cannot prove) exactly who did the faking.

"Someone else faked it and I missed it, just like all the reviewers!!"
I can't speak for the parent comment but I've had the same problem myself in discussing this. I would actually love to have to stop repeating myself, but the crypto CEOs keep also repeating the same marketing lines over and over again with reckless abandon and then a new group of people reads it and pops up the next day asking the same questions. Sometimes I can even directly map some comments to a series of tweets from a CEO just by searching and it's really frustrating. Dan, you should know this as well as anyone: it's easy for some startup to dump out unverified claims all over the internet. It takes continued and constant effort to refute those claims. So what can we do here? It feels like the amount of hype that's (still) happening is inherently not conducive to good discussion.
You should go crazy and skip step 3. Just do for all of us.

Land use is of absolutely no concern for renewables or storage.

Solar and wind coexist synergetically with existing uses, so renewables do not need any dedicated land at all. There is enough existing reservoir area to float solar on, alone, for many times the world's conceivable power needs.

Solar farms are built in deserts only because idiot investors want them there. They are fantastically less efficient there, and degrade in the heat.

Concern trolling about land demand is the low road.

> And yes, this is a dark part of EU history...

Was blocking Hitler's propaganda during WW2 a dark side of Europe's history?

This is war! You can't allow the enemy to trick your population.

In Romania, when we were occupied by Russia, there were just 400 communists in the country. Those people were put in charge of everything by the occupiers.

If Ukraine is defeated, we'll be next, so it makes sense to not have any such people. A poll showed that only 75 % of Romanians blamed Russia for the war. 5 % blamed Ukraine, and the rest NATO/"the West"/etc.

That means that an incredible number of our people are traitors, and we can't allow Russia to communicate to them.
App Academy took a percentage of your first years salary. It felt pretty fair to me because it was free upfront. I don’t like the regular way tuition works where you pay a ton upfront and they have no incentive to get you a job. App Academy actually had an aligned interest in getting me a high paying job right after their program. Could I have done it without them? Probably, but I didn’t mind paying them back after they helped triple my salary basically. Not sure if they offer this payment method anymore though.
That's a fair point, seems like the current issue owner is inactive on the task, I'll go in myself and start work on a benchmark. Million started out as only a virtual dom (and therefore was never added to the js-framework-benchmark). Only recent was the React compat added, which is when we were comfortable to start working on benches.

My intention wasn't to dismiss your point at all btw. My intention was if there wasn't any 3rd party benchmark for a library (like js-framework-benchmark), you shouldn't take claims at face value unless you've done due diligence. It's great to hear that you're keeping yourself accountable, hopefully Million will also sometime soon :)

> Punishments are absolutely necessary …

No, this isn’t true at all. My teenager has never been punished once in his life, and he’s turning into an excellent human: hard-working, compassionate with self and others, honest.

I would define punishment as “intentional infliction of suffering for purposes of behavior modification.” As stated, that’s flatly unethical, especially with your own family.

Now, he experiences consequences of his actions all the time. Scratch the counter-top? Win an afternoon of helping me refinish it. That works because it’s directly connected to his actions, and because I treat it as a learning opportunity rather than yelling at him or banishing him.

There are more possibilities than “punishment or permissiveness.” Kids need structure and to understand and experience age-appropriate consequences for their actions. But that doesn’t mean they need arbitrary suffering imposed by people they’re supposed to love.

Immigration in the US is not easy, however USCIS has made some recent improvements specifically for citizens of Ukraine. The Uniting for Ukraine is a "parole" program. So you won't have any immigration status. It does come with the ability to get work authorization, and it's been made online recently. Those usually go quicker, but I don't know how long those are taking. Until then you'll probably have make do with passive income, sponsor support, or your own means.

There is no path to immigration from parole, but you can certainly try for some kind of status or immigration to another country. Hopefully at the end of the 2 years, Ukraine will once again be a safe country. In that case, you'd probably have to go back. If, God forbid, it's not, US will probably extend parole or grant Temporary Protected Status (TPS) to Ukrainians in the US. But there's no guarantee.

Hope this helps.

Why punish? Indeed, why?
Human justice - legal, lawful justice, has nothing to do with Justice at all, and is nothing but the visitation of revenge on the wrongdoer.
I would hate to punish anyone because it would coarsen me to supervise somebody's pain. On the other hand, no punishment ever helped me to become a better person.
The only thing that ever helped me in any case was love.

Tor is open source and protocol is open. You can hardly make different versions of it. I can't imagine that at least. The point of Tor is that US spy can send his traffic to whitehose.gov from Moscow and his bytes will not be different from bytes of thousands of drug addicts looking for some marihuana on dark web. FBI won't be able to tell a difference. That's the whole point of Tor. It makes no sense to maintain two versions of tor networks or something like that.
