A popular narrative is that the choice is between Ghosn being guilty or a victim of a Nissan management coup d'etat.

This is a false dichotomy, it is also quite possible that illicit activity by Ghosn provided convenient ammunition to people with incentive to have him removed.

People pushing the binary narrative focus on how the Japanese prosecution seems over the top for what is essentially a financial reporting law violation. However, the reporting issues are only two of the allegations.

The other two seem more serious, breach of trust in getting Nissan to cover collateral for FX losses, and misappropriation of funds in which $15 million was sent to a Nissan dealership, a portion of which was then transferred to a company controlled by Ghosn.

Adding to these the French arrest warrant on charges of money laundering and abuse of company assets, which seem to include misuse of company funds to allegedly pay for a lavish personal party at Versailles, one must wonder if online Ghosn supporters are organic or reputation management staff.
My main qualm with the parent comment was this in particular, "Number one, is that forests work as long term carbon storage and sinks." Even with the surrounding context it sounded like this strategy will just "work".

The example you give with mangroves is a great one which does in fact work. Pragmatically and historically most of the attempts however, have not due to mismanagement and other unseen complications.

Seeing the further comments I see the point the parent was making is more around first principles of Forrests as carbon sinks not about its implementations.
Register theft also occurs so does stealing from the common tipjar. It's not always 10s of millions, often it's thousand per year that people siphon off. It's till financial crimes.
I'm also terrified by that wing aspect ratio. Fast it must have been, but it seems that they sacrificed a lot of common (flying) sense to get there.

> Interesting story here that Nimitz had to make an extraordinary gamble the intercepted Japanese communications were talking about Midway island and not somewhere in the Aleutians (the other possible candidate).

They were rather more certain of that.

> Determined to dispel such doubts, Rochefort’s team famously devised a ruse. Via submarine, they sent a message to the base on Midway instructing personnel there to radio Pearl Harbor that the salt-water evaporators on the base had broken down. Two days later, a Japanese message was intercepted that reported “AF” was running out of fresh drinking water.
Responsibility doesn't require punishment (who is going around punishing non-criminal adults anyway?), a situation where negative consequences can fall upon innocent people has been created. I said "apparently" because I don't see any moral reason that individual ought to be responsible for monitoring Experian's data collection, but to monitoring these reports does somewhat reduce the risk that they've created and nobody else is going to do it for you, so...

There's an option to just not deal with anyone who uses their services, but this might include landlords, mortgage companies, and employers.

As to the analogy -- who is Experian in your analogy? And how does the analogy simplify the explanation? I think it is unnecessary and obfuscating. It removes the agency if the entity that has caused the problem in the first place.
It seems like a lot of other technologies in this space have solved the listed problems while remaining compatible with browsers, load balancers, reverse proxies, etc.

It was a product choice not to offer a fallback path when HTTP/2 was unavailable. That choice made gRPC impossible to deploy in a lot of real-world environments.

What motivated that choice?

It doesn’t answer the question on USN motivations but does a great job explaining why the Japanese were stuck in a rut and rapidly surpassed in terms of tactics, morale, and skill.
For anyone looking for an open source web-based TI emulator I just ported wxWabbitEmu (which I believe supports the TI-84) [1]. I only skinned the TI-85 since it's the calc I use, but the skins are just CSS.

I'm curious what the performance is like. I run it on my phone as a basic calculator, haven't messed with running binaries at all.

> Are the people taking the bulk of the income deserving of that income?

they deserve what they can get, as long as it is legal and above board (aka, no bribery, corruption etc).

There's some level of morality being assigned to the idea of "deserve". I dont believe such morals exist, and that it stems from jealousy.

> And it's clear that they are not allotting the profits based on the value the employees are bringing to the company.

i dont think it's as clear as you make it out to be.
OK, I looked at your link. It talks about safety but all of measures described are about avoiding bias. I'm not personally against this - having more diverse images is great. But I think my point that the Lesswrong version of AI safety does not seem to be being considered stands. The various anti-bias stuff seems unlikely to be reducing the system's capabilities and I think your original point was that we could not judge Dall-E 'cause of safety-reduced capacities and if this is your evidence, it seems unconvincing to say the least.
Could be. However, the risk is that if I were already the slightest bit suspicious, even subconsciously, I would go full red alert when that envelope of cash came out.

I'd (like to think I'd) bow discreetly, slip the envelope into my pocket, and excuse myself. Then I'd be on the phone to security before my office door swung closed.
Me too. It just looks awesome. A cockpit bolted on to a ginormous engine. It's a totally bad-ass airplane.
So "because there are no detective stories in the illiad there was no crime" ?

Certainly yes, a hypothesis of a rich interior model is explicit in fiction, it's tempting to theorise but to theorise a rich interior model doesn't exist is to deny the kinds of abstraction needed to eg teach somebody how to do a thing. It's weighting fiction as proof of theory of mind above all other things.

Construct an internal model where an old, blind Neanderthal explains to a young child how to hunt a bison they have never yet seen, which does not presuppose exactly the same narrative structural necessities in the legend of gilgamesh: imagined time, third party views of acts done, if this then that.. it beggars belief that Jaynes can argue otherwise and be taken seriously. All Jaynes really does is establish a time terminus ante quem so to speak. He cannot establish terminus post quem at all.

My tech company had a space called "the library" for "those times when you need to do deep focus work." There were several thousand engineers in the building. The library could seat maybe 15. No monitors, no outlets. Even when they come tantalizingly close to understanding, the idea is just so foreign to them, that most engineers should be focusing most of the time and that our elaborate monitor and keyboard setups are part of focus work.

Meanwhile out on the floor I have tried to (politely) call people out for e.g. having Zoom standup participants on full blast in the middle of the sea of desks. They shrugged and said, "it's an open office. You can wear headphones." This company prided itself on empowering engineers, providing them with the tools and resources to do their best work, and in some ways lived up to that. But the way we made it a totally individual burden to jam the noise or seek refuge elsewhere really undermined it.
Back in 2014 we made an iOS game* that got several million plays and some local press but never made enough money to motivate further work. I still like it and play it when killing time on flights. If you were solo and/or had very low living costs or expectations, or got a feature to kickstart things more, maybe you could make a modest living.

Doing it over, I think we'd probably put more time into making it a daily challenge or monetising differently or using a more neutral theme.

How do you test that the commit messages are accurate over time for what the software does?

Anytime Ive done code archaeology, the commit messages, no matter how detailed, have been irrelevant to what's currently running.

Between reading a book of commit comments, or the authoritative code, it's much more efficient to just read the code.

One of the big things with commit messages is that they won't capture changes in adjacent systems that don't share a code base. While you can spot weird edge cases in the code, you can't from the commit messages alone
Ejection motors are powerful. You don't want to eject into the fire of somebody else's rocket and since you have no guidance system a simultaneous ejection would just be asking for a collision. Thus a delay is necessary in a front/back situation. (You could build a system for side-by-side simultaneous ejection, design the seats to fly a little to the outside.)
Ive often said this, I put my attention in economic terms. Your attention is worth something: cognitive power, context switching cost, opportunity cost, etc... These things add up. If some app on your phone demands your attention, don't give it to them. They are not paying you for it. If you do give your attention away for free, then hope that you are receiving something of value in return. In most cases, the immediacy of knowing about a Like or even BREAKING NEWS is just not that important.
Here's an article written for more of a layperson's audience. https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-022-02112-0
120 in the US is typically on a 15 amp circuit. 240 in Europe at least (and I'd assume most of the world) is generally on a 5 amp circuit. This is speaking in typical household voltages and amperages, so obviously someone will have outliers, but this has been my experience

120 * 15 = 1800 watts. 240 * 5 = 1200 watts. US circuits generally carry more power than their overseas equivalents. If you plugged that Indian 240v pressure washer into your 20 amp circuit, it wouldn't likely draw more current unless it was designed badly, and wouldn't perform any better.
Maybe offtopic or not. (I'm sleepy)

I was planning to date someone, she works in the mental health department.

Reason(s) why I didn't go because she quickly send my a photo of her in somewhere in the middle of nowhere taking a selfie. Let me explain again, she wanted the show the environment, I couldn't see anything of the environment, because she was standing in middle taking a selfie.

For a women several years older than me (mid 30) and other selfies. This was the last straw. I'm not against it, but I don't want to show everything to anyone and I'm not a selfie person at all.

(Since I get enough photos from my sister already, taking a lot of shots.
I don't think most batteries in smartphones are intended for replacement. For example, here is the process for a Google Pixel 3a: https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Google+Pixel+3a+Battery+Replace...

Now, can it be replaced? Yes. Is it intended to be within the skillset of the average consumer? Clearly not.
> Optimizing for the JIT isn’t and shouldn’t be a guiding principle for every dev, but it’s harmless or good for us to be aware.

No, it can be quite harmful: you could end up overoptimizing for one engine and ruin performance on another engine, or even a different version of the same engine. When making non-trivial optimizations that are designed around the quirks of the optimizing compiler you should be very careful about the tradeoffs and also what the penalty will be if the optimization breaks in the future.
Howdy, thanks. I rewrote it. I intend to launch once I get some illustrations.

The small text: "Serverless" game hosting with enterprise ambitions to change the world. Adama is an open-source vertical web stack designed for board games, and the platform is a nuclear warhead of productivity when compared to traditional web stacks. Let's get shit done, today.

This is all above the fold.

Civilian aircraft are speed limited below IIRC 18,000' because of the danger of bird strikes. Military aircraft are no less vulnerable, they just have ejection seats if the pilot loses the game with the birds.
It's a bit of a throwaway/joke line because the Labour theory of value does not inform any aspect of modern economic theory on value as exchange. They're probably orthogonal concepts.

That said I wouldn't discount that there is a very fine thesis in analysis of bullshit jobs. Particularly the extreme amount of organisationally justified middle management which inserts mindless beaurocracy into creative acts. Think not just lawyers, but the oceans and oceans of ink applied by junior law clerks to pad out the billable hours and get to the million dollars in costs, but for virtually everything we do now. You think all those 150,000 google employees are creating value?

As a position of quasi religious faith, I think the property of value latent in made things vests in the labour to make them not the priviledge of the capital invested. The alternatives are very ugly: slavery would be the highest form of profitable enterprise when in fact I believe the evidence is strong the other way: you need to pay workers to get value from them. Why? Because they create the value. Invest in slaves, it's less outcome for more expenditure.
This, as others have pointed out via tweets and Tutanota themselves acknowledging the technicality on Reddit, is why I couldn't report on it (we received the blog from them too) and am inclined to believe this is sensationalized.

https://www.reddit.com/r/tutanota/comments/wfu0vk/comment/ij...

Microsoft support can do better, no denying, but to use words like "blocked" and "anti-competitive practice" when a technical issue like this may apply to other domains, not just Tutanota, seems hyperbole.
Others linked it, but I believe trypophobia was an evolutionary advantage genetic instinctive trait that kept early human carriers repulsed and therefore safely avoidant of infestations (contagious disease welts/boils, harmful insect hives, and the like).
15 to 18 of those 20 years don't count when talking about problems tbat are either new or on a progression.

It's also like saying you don't believe house fires actually happen because yours hasn't "ever in over 20 years, even once"
> Given the irregular distance between holes and the different angles of the holes,

They say the exact opposite in the video: "One of the things we're interested in is how almost perfectly aligned these are and the regularity of the spacing of the holes and the size of the holes themselves. And the shape of the holes, the angularity, the rectangularness."
GDP per capita is a yardstick for labor productivity. I’m generally interested in the cost of doing business in various places. GDP per capita is a good metric.
I wish I could help you, but I couldn't get Syncthing to start up so I ended up clearing the app storage and set up the devices and folder shares again. It wasn't too bad. If you have a backup you could try restoring from that in settings. I tried changing the IP back in config.xml but I couldn't browse to the file location using my file browsing app and gave up.
The Indian pressure washer I linked is 2800 watts.
Generally very, very little. You can generally take the number of Steam reviews on a game and multiply by 50 to get a rough, ballpark idea of how many sales the game has made. Considering this game has 3 reviews on Steam and costs $6, it’s unlikely the game has made over $1000 on that platform.

That doesn’t mean it’s not worth making games, though! I’ve released two mobile games, still updating the second one, and although they’re a far cry from being profitable vs. the amount of time I’ve put into them, I still find the process and result very fulfilling.
As a Googler, it's worse. Even within one of the "companies" there is distrust in the chain of command.

For what it’s worth, my crappy skip list implementation was a bit slower than my crappy red-black tree implementation at mixed read/write workloads, but it was faster to iterate sequentially, but that never
mattered for me enough for it to be a net win. I ended up switching back to red-black trees.

This is just one data point. I suspect I’ll try using them again next time I’m trying to squeeze perf out of an ordered search data structure.
I think the secret was that the rapid growth of the Navy ensured lots of promotional opportunities to replace the WW1 people who had ossified in place.

You had lots of mid-grade officers who had to compete to be promoted, an influx of new blood, and plenty of places to stuff idiots with political juice.

The key thing was the timeline between 1918 and 1942. If you compare early WW2 to the Civil War, in the civil war you were only 13-15 years removed from the Mexican War. Lots of old Napoleonic ideas were still in the heads of the officer corps, and it took a lot of blood and guts for officers like Sherman and Grant to work their way up and adapt. (The Confederates never figured it out)

We glorify the feats of our fighting men and women, but the reality is that a modern military is perhaps the greatest bureaucracy devised. Bureaucracy rewards the embrace of inertia, and only talented leaders AND timing/luck can break it.
Yeah I feel like the overwhelming naval victory at Midway and in the overall war kind of masked the flaws and mistakes of the WWII US navy in the public perception. The WWII US navy made many operational and tactical mistakes. For example, even with the major intelligence advantage, the Battle of Midway was pretty dicey and a lot of luck was required to achieve the unthinkable result of sinking 4 carriers. Don't get me wrong, the US probably would have won the naval war regardless due to the materiel advantage.

I think a big part of the "fighting spirit" the OOP mentioned came from the Pearl Harbor attack. It galvanized everyone into action and lessons were learnt and mistakes were fixed very quickly, at all level of the military. For example, after the lost of Lexington, fuel lines were drained and filled with inert gas and that lesson was propagated quickly through the fleet. The fast turnaround between mistakes and lessons learnt probably also came hand in hand with how individuals were empowered to make decisions and took responsibility.

On other side of the coin, I think the IJN incompetence got highlighted and not enough credits were given. Their carrier divisions were very very highly trained and operated at a much higher tempo than the US at the start of war. The IJN night battle tactics were also very deadly. Even after Midway, they still went toe to toe with the USN during the attritional Guadalcanal campaigns. Despite their doctrine and culture giving them plenty of weaknesses and blind spots, it also gave them many strengths. I dare say during the preparation for the war, the "fighting spirit" and the effectiveness of the IJN was just as high.

In my opinion, the myths surrounding the Pacific naval war obscure very interesting stories from both sides with plenty of lessons that are still applicable today.

NAD+/NADH is kind of an important energy transporter molecule in your body. If you do not have NAD+ to be reduced to NADH, your body cannot oxidize NADH to power the electron transport chain and drive forward ATP synthase.

In other words, you will die literally from exhaustion.
Yeah, if we are going to avoid ICE engines around the house we need to modify the electric code. As it stands you can't get ICE-level power from anything electric because circuits of that power are not permitted for general use.

For anyone reading, if you’re a programmer by training, I’d recommend literally any game engine other than Game Maker Studio for creating your game. Unity is a great choice for beginners that lets you program in C#.

Game Maker Studio is specifically designed for people who are NOT programmers.

>I have provided a link for something worse... information provided by Experian can be used to deny you medical care! See the link below. That isn't shady enough for you?

Rage inducing headline aside, I'm really not seeing what's shady here after reading the article. What basically seems to be happening here is that Experian is telling hospitals your credit worthiness, and as a result people with bad credit are being denied credit by hospitals and therefore have to pre-pay for their medical care. If they don't have the money, they can't get medical care. I'm not saying this is a good situation, but I'm not sure how Experian's role here is "shady".

These are all issues, which are a direct result of the choices PINE64 made - to put the switch inside and to install Manjaro Plasma as the default OS! And this is also poor testing - they ship their brand new Pinebook Pro with outdated distro and did not test it against the latest packages, which break it! All these are poor choices on my end. It's not about my comfort - I don't want to have to unscrew the brand new laptop on day 1!
