I used to believe that more education would help, but today it seems that the most educated are most likely to spread these dangerous kinds of misinformation, whereas uneducated people are most likely to question it. The educated seem to be more dangerous if for no other reason than they control the media.
The amount of lies during COVID is worthy of an entire book.

One more: Edwyn Collins, from Wikipedia:

In February 2005, Collins was hospitalised after two cerebral haemorrhages which resulted in aphasia, and he needed months to recover. He resumed his musical career in 2007. A documentary film on his recovery, The Possibilities Are Endless, was released in 2014.
The house has so many design and decor cues from the house/neighborhood I grew up in in Redmond, WA. I wonder if there's a name for that design movement of orange carpet, wood panelling, wallpaper, linoleum, popcorn ceilings...
Drones themselves could provide mesh networks, possibly / probably with narrow-band communications (laser or tight-beam microwave) between units.

Even a few hundred metres of elevation gives a highly extended transmission range, and dedicated high-altitude comms drones (FL40 -- FL60 or better) could communicate to distances of 100s of km.

These themselves would still be cheap, would be difficult to spot, let alone target, and would require high-altitude-capable missiles to reach, though beam weapons (e.g., lasers) are another option.

Balloons (think weather balloons) would be another option, operating even higher. Again, cheap and easily replaced, but costing $100ks or $1ms to destroy. Think Google's Project Loon.
A huge portion of the JWST cost was specially designing it to fold and unfold in a certain way due to the size of the rocket and the size of the spacecraft. First, smaller probes wouldn't have that restraint, and second, SpaceX's upcoming bigger launch vehicle won't have that restraint for JWST-sized craft.

>But... It does. 220lbs of methane per cow on average.

So you are saying you are in the bug camp, got it.

>but you're arguing that transport of plants, using fossil fuels, even remotely touches the amount of fossil fuels...[meat]

Hyperbole and no accounting. You have no idea. Scale production and see what happens. Have you any data to validate your assessment?

> grassland that could be significantly more productive

How so? Do you believe all grassland on earth should be appropriated for "best use" to increase productivity? Why would you believe that? Are you aware that allowing cattle to forage in forests helps prevent wildfires and enriches the soil increasing undergrowth and biodiversity. The practice is largely banned in state and national parks thanks to zealots of ecowarriors and bug campers.

>We don't need meat

What we need is trivial. We don't need cars or shoes or knowledge.

Meat can be considered a byproduct of an immensely useful material that lasts indefinitely, has been harnessed by possibly every culture to exist and has uses that every person requires.

Agree to disagree, but your conclusions and what you consider "weird" are just absurd. The reason people don't use their friends' services is because the supply doesn't exist, not because there's no demand.

And /r/homelab (and the numerous spinoffs) would highly disagree with you; the fact that they exist is what you would call "the proof" which is "all around us".
Well I have different experiences where no one would ever go back to living without pre-commit, black, autoflake, etc. It moves the fixes to before they get to CI. There's literally no downside.

Don't know about the roc but in Quebec the order of doctors is infested with unethical personel like M. Barrette and M. Couillard who negotiated their own salaries and kept the traditional rejection of change on how doctors are trained, what nurses are allowed to do, etc.

It is baffling to me as to how doctors are allowed to keep this monopoly on care and behave as if hell bent on perpetuating an eternal crisis of scarcity among the profession. It ends up with doctors being paid at least 100$/h when cost of living is nowhere near that.

It is also my anecdata that almost half the doctors I've met are assholes (3/7). Probably doesn't help to create a great work environment.
> classes are a native JS concept

Recently, with ES6. But JS still lacks a way to get the type of an instance. You can check it but you can't simply get it, as in `new typeof(this)`. So you have to store it somewhere in the instance or in the type, as you would for a manual typeguard. And much of TS usage is still not for generating ES6 code. TS overlays boilerplate to mimick classes on ES5 targets. As it mimicks enums. I'm just saying I don't see why it couldn't mimick type reflection as well.

Something I have noticed too, and it seems to be a common trend many are noticing. What do you think causes it? Anyone know any studied terms to explain this?

My thinking was that "smart" people are busier and outsource their thinking in other aspects to media they can trust. If that media lies to them, they are smart, so they don't want to admit they were wrong. They are too smart to be fooled! But I don't know if that explanation holds up.

I recently got a new work laptop that doesn't support sleep mode (s3). Apparently its something that the vendor has to support in the BIOS. Dell says they're not going to support it anymore since Windows uses some fake sleep mode nowadays so they can collect telemetry 24/7, and they don't want to put in the effort just for Linux users. I can't believe we're going so far backwards with technology these days.

BC was altered considerably by a series of economic crisis in the 90s; notably the softwood lumber dispute, the opening of raw log exports, the salmon fishery dispute, and the asian economic crisis. All told, they had the cumulative effect of shifting BC's economy away from lumber and fisheries and toward tourism and real estate.
>Do you mean by replaying the HTTP requests of other humans?

No, that would be too obvious. I’m thinking more of replaying human interactions with a browser within a VM, or perhaps replaying them using some sort of hidden tabs, so the user session cookies stay as they were, but the behavior that can be associated with them would be jammed.

As for server analytics - it’s not very relevant now, because there’s no need, but once google is prevented from exploiting it they will inevitably switch to tracking all the client details on the (google’s) server side.
Nice, I had heard of the Kelly Criterion before but never thought to consider applying it to this situation. It's fantastic if the mathematically correct amount to wager (for any ordinary person) is less than $2 which rounds to 0 tickets which supports my intuition to not play.

Your second paragraph touches on another thought I had, which is why people think it's only worthwhile to play when the jackpot is $600M+. Any of us would be happy to win just $20M so why not play for every jackpot? Again it comes down to that misleading EV calculation, which I believe doesn't even matter if you are only going to buy 1 ticket only. Wagering based on the EV would only make sense if it was feasible to buy on the order of 100M tickets. Then you'd have a reasonable shot of winning each jackpot. And playing enough jackpots, you would come out ahead.
Popular culture likes to praise Native Americans for using every part of the animals they killed, but it simultaneously vilifies the modern food processing that does the same, e.g. deriding hotdogs for being made out of pig anuses.

It's a strange incongruity. Not letting an animal go to waste after you've killed it is good, I firmly believe that. Why should it be framed as a bad thing in modern contexts, while it's widely acknowledged as good in the context of another culture a century or so ago?

Incidentally, "regular gelatin" is still made out of animal feet/etc unless you go out of your way to get vegetable gelatin. So this is another way our society still makes use of the full animal but without really appreciating it.

I used to look at people who exude Bad Ass Mother Fucker vibes and think, "ooh, scary," then later "ooh, jealous" and now all I can think is, "who hurt you?"

Why does a grown ass man need to be the scariest person in a room? It's a lot of pageantry, and a random mix of bluff and impulse control. The scariest guy in the room is the one who's been doing martial arts for 10 years and still wears polo shirts and is quiet. Beware the person wearing roomy pants and comfortable shoes who just smiles gently when something vaguely threatening is said. Especially if they ask you please not to do what you're doing.

My grandmother was friends with both Julia Child and Martin Yan, She traveled to China several times with Yan on these cooking tours he would arrange.

When my grandmother was teaching me how to cook, what was wonderful was the non-nonchalant way she could subtly be specific...

Meaning, when she was teaching me a recipe, she would tell me "oh just however much you feel is right" but at the same time giving me subtle indicators as to what was appropriate amount.

It took the stress out of cooking, but also let me feel the bumpers to make a strike.
Someone will pull it out of the trash can even if it is just to free wheel part way to their destination before dumping it. Eventually someone dumps it in a body of water where it cannot be seen and if it could would be deemed unusable.

Solaris had merged /bin and /usr/bin for like two decades. The difference nowadays is mostly cosmetics; one is a symlink to the other and that’s mostly it. It could make a difference in the eighties when there was a reason for a separate /usr.
I’m very similar situations as all of you. However I’m farther behind. The drive to get out of this situation. This drive growing more and more only began in my mid 30s. I’m still looking for my first career dev job while grinding out leetcode.

Your advice to your younger self is spot on. I still have to tell myself that sometimes as I’m not out of the woods yet.

Then posts like this give me a second of pure self pity like I’m too far behind (I know I’m not).

Thanks for your post.

It's a testable hypothesis if you can get enough people to agree that their kids should be banned access to all such distractions (and such a ban to remain in place into adulthood). Obviously they'd still need access to electronically available information. Whether discussion forums/messaging apps count as distractions might be a grey area.

I don't really see anything in what I read as a wonderful genocide denial piece of the likes you see on catholic news sites right now, about how the decision to exhume or not exhume is being taken with a lot of care and the decisions lie with the tribes on how to do this. It sounds like at the Kamloops site, they're working on an archaeological dig. [1] These things take time for reasons of doing what may involve the respectful and dignified exhumation of potential corpses. If it's just some anomaly then the people writing shit like this have a LOT of words to eat. It's pretty much their word over elderly indigenous survivors who have pretty much pointed to where they remembered dead kids going in where to do some initial evidence gathering.

In 1948, the United Nations Genocide Convention defined genocide as any of five "acts committed with intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnic, racial or religious group, as such." These five acts were: killing members of the group, causing them serious bodily or mental harm, imposing living conditions intended to destroy the group, preventing births, and forcibly transferring children out of the group. Victims are targeted because of their real or perceived membership of a group, not randomly. This happened in Canada regardless of whether or not there's graves in these sites, but "oh yeah where's the dead kids bodies already" is in my opinion kind of a horrible point of view given light of the necessarily slow paced process that's happening to uncover the truth.

HOWTOs are text-based information-dense documentation pages that were very common through the 90s in the early internet. I am sure a lot of people that were working with computers around that time benefited from a couple of these detailed documentation projects.

I kind of miss the detail and effort put to that kind of documentation. Nowadays most "documentation" or "tutorials" you find in the internet are low effort SEO/advertising disguised as documentation.

HOWTOs are from a different era where there was no continuous effort to "monetize" the internet.

Gateway was involved in my first college computer, too, but not in the standard way. In 1998 I worked at a mall RadioShack, and there was also a Gateway store at the other end.

I don't think 'knowing how to do agriculture fairly well' was the distinguishing factor in growing enough to survive first winter in a new land.

I'd like to hear firsthand agriculturalists / agronomists on this. But heading into your first winter in a new climate with an unfamiliar crop (maize would like to say hello) , unfamiliar soil, make the likelihood of growing enough foodstuffs to store to last the winter a proposition fraught with risk indeed.
There is no magic. If entropy got injected in between getrandom() calls you get that entropy - it does not matter if the entropy is cryptographically scrambled and 'merged' into the kernel PRNG state.

All you have to do is 'merge'/'absorb' multiple getrandom() results over some time t into your userspace PRNG, with t big enough to allow for multiple reseeding events by the kernel. You are in effect getting samples of the new entries into the kernel entropy pool indirectly by doing this, sampling too frequently is wasteful however as you are just going to be sampling the kernel CSRPNG with the same entropy in its state most of the time.

Doing the above is actually the only way to properly seed your userspace CSPRNG if your userspace CSPRNG has a state larger than the kernel CSPRNG (kernel's is 512 bits I believe) otherwise you will be working with a 512 bits of entropy as an absolute maximum even if your CSPRNG is capable of holding more, at least until reseeding (both the kernel and the userspace PRNG).
