What. You realize that much of mainstream culture is drawn from the queer Black community, right? Voguing, house music, slang like "yas queen", "slay", "shade", and "tea", Pride parades, and more.

And that BIPOC cultures have a history of third gender peoples? Two Spirit, fa'afafine, chibados, muxe, sipniq, etc.

To say these things only exist because of white liberal sexuality is patently absurd.
I've been slowly writing a near-future science fiction story where everyone drives around 15 feet above the ground and has to enter their car on a ladder, because over 50 years vehicles slowly crept up in height and nobody wanted to be the "low car" on the road.

It started out as a joke back in 2010, partially inspired by "A Nice Morning Drive" (http://www.2112.net/powerwindows/transcripts/19731100roadand...) from the 1972s. It is no longer very funny -- Ford killing its sedans a couple years back was a sad wakeupcall.
Yes, that is a line in the episode:

> ALYSSA: You know what the secret is, don't you? Don't force it. If you just let the game happen, it almost plays itself.

But at the beginning of the episode, you see Riker playing:

> ETANA: Concentrate. Make the disc go into the cone.

> RIKER: How do I do that?

> ETANA: Just let go. Relax. You'll do it.

> the first one misses, the second is a success

( http://www.chakoteya.net/NextGen/206.htm )

You could make the argument that everyone misses their first shot for no other reason than that it gives them a false feeling of accomplishment when they make the second one.

But it would make more sense to say that victory in the game comes from assuming a particular state of mind, presumably one that allows the game to do its thing.

You don't need to "let the game happen" for an autoplaying game to play itself.
you may be aware, but tobasco isn't the only hot sauce louisiana is famous for. There's also Louisiana hot sauce which is also tart and vinegary but not that weird tobasco kick, and buffalo "wing" sauce was also invented in louisiana.

Tobasco peppers grow like wildfire out here, but so do cayenne and jalapeno. I'm assuming that means almost all peppers will, but i've only grown 3 varieties so far. I intend to grow about a dozen varieties next season, already have the seeds.

Edit: Sorry, because the parent component re-rendered too. Except it didn't. But maybe? Nah, it didn't. Did it?

A lot of people are going to think this is being ridiculous, but there were actually bugs as recently as a few months ago(maybe still?) in the dev tools where they would not know the actual re-render reason and it would spit out a generic "parent component re-rendered" instead.
I noticed this talk re Palantir. Previously my quick take on what they're selling is that they're "duct tape" joining up data and apps from wherever. An OS inside a specific machine is also duct tape joining up drivers, apps, storage, file formats etc, so Palantir has a point, in calling their product an OS. True, it might be more accurate to say "metaOS" or "NetOS" or "distributed OS" (meaning network not necessairily internet) but I'll give it to 'em. It's an OS of a kind.

Are Tesla's selling because of the interior or in spite of it? I suspect it's more the latter, and it's the powertrain and charging network that are actually the driving force behind Tesla sales, not the interior.
That is a false binary. Drivers are inundated with distraction at every moment, from the rapidly changing world around them to idle thoughts arising inside their minds. A competent driver is situationally aware and chooses an appropriate moment to be intentionally distracted with a glance away to adjust the climate or radio.

The job of technology is to be extremely predictable and, ideally, multi-sensory.

In the US I would consider that reasonable (e.g. Oxide pays $160K) but cost of living is probably lower in Europe. As for what someone is thinking, ask them not us.
> Most people in Europe don’t want to leave

Sure, but most people aren't skilled white collar tech workers with in demand skills who could be earning 3x post-tax salary in the US.

Health insurance is essentially free or cheap at any good tech company. EU pensions are underfunded (just like US ones) and as a high paid tech worker you're better off with maxing your 401k anyways.

If you look at the nationalities in any top US MS/PhD/MBA program, you'll find it's about 40% European, far above what undergraduate programs look like. That shows quite a few skilled workers in Europe want to leave.

If you are an unskilled worker, Europe is better as long as they can continue to sustain their social programs by taxing high earners and having defense be subsidized by the US. If too many high earners leave or the US becomes unwilling to pay for bases all across Europe, the whole system collapses pretty quickly.
My main advice would be: Try to drop any notion of how it "should" be. For some this comes natural, for others it's a deep struggle. When it comes to planning and decision-making your travels and schedule, try to listen to your body and other needs over any self-imposed pressure.

It's fine staying in one spot for a year.
It's fine going back home for a while and recoup. Be it over a weekend or half a year.
It's fine leaving a place after two weeks when you made preparations to have it as a more long-term base if you realize something's off.
It's fine to go out and meet people all the time. It's fine not to (though most of us do benefit from regular socializing in-person, self-identified introverts included).

Balance this with trying to make decisions deliberately, rather than on impulse.

Two major pieces of advice I'd give younger self that come to mind:

- Nurture the friendships you value. Be proactive in staying in touch with people you want to keep.

- Take care of your body and figure out an ergonomically sustainable way to work. Day-long sessions at coffee shops or the backseat of an RV will make a number on your back sooner than you think.
It can also be used for nested connections. E.g. if you SSH to server A, and then from server A to server B, ~. will kill the session on B. Alternatively, ~~. will kill the session on A.

Mold spores are in the air, on the food you're fermenting, everywhere. They can get in while you're filling the container. Operating hygienically and producing an environment where they won't thrive (keeping the solids submerged) is good prevention.
Insider trading laws apply to everyone, professional or amateur alike. Probably worse for a professional because you jeopardise your career prospects at the same time. And insider trading is just so much easier to discover and investigate compared to other kinds of financial crime.

Personal observation - so indeed, feel free to ignore, reject on this basis.
Phillip Glass was a taxi driver and half of his contemporaries in NY did removals. Loads of these composers are extremely successful AND I've never heard an interview where he talks about how insanely horrible it was/he was entitled to do something else. This isn't going to work for everyone and many of these kinds of jobs are not around anymore so people should be supported to make art and music (e.g. ubi or patrons/foundations).

H/w I can't stand the current hipster bs around "pure" artists and muscians (e.g. I only show at X or I'm an IDM genius since I was eight etc). It's very silly and enforces an artificial scarcity that's not good for anyone. You don't have to be a pure artist to be successful, there is no such thing.
Really? Hooks seem quite simple to me conceptually - certainly significantly more simple than class components were. If anything, they seem to me to be a clear disproof of your hypothesis.

> artisanal bologna

Two words I never thought I'd see next to each other.

Growing up we ate the Oscar Meyer product. Not great, but when you're 10 years old, it's fine. But they've got a point - bologna for adult tastes just doesn't exist, and someone should give it a whirl.
> To live the same lifestyle and have the same amount of disposable income as someone earning $170-230k in SF, you'd need to earn ¥12-18M or so in Tokyo.

The same amount of disposable income, measured in dollars or yen without PPP adjustment? That's a big gap and I don't think it can be made up with cost of living savings.

> So converting to dollars doesn't give an accurate value imo. As long as you earn and spend yen, what matters is purchasing power parity. Not the exchange rate.

If you ever want to leave Japan, then the value of your savings does matter. Your savings don't get PPP adjusted down if you move.
I don't know but there are two "are"s in your question, which is not what you probably intended. :)
I think lot of countries have restrictions like this to prevent foreign pests and diseases from coming in. Right now California is dealing with cockroaches from Turkestan and Florida with African snails. Its easy for pests to spread when there is no native predators. California also does further pest inspections if you enter by roads.
You can neutralize some of the acid by adding alkaline ingredients. Sodium bicarbonate or calcium hydroxide are two common ways. But this may neutralize the pH to the point where the sauce isn't naturally preserved from molding or otherwise spoiling.
I think that's called "van life" when done domestically.

Ok, his channel is called AvE.
It's never been about the craft. A lot of people can draw and paint in this world. People pay more money for art because of the individual behind it and its provenance. AI generated content will probably remain relegated to stock imagery or cheap mass produced prints sold at retailers.

While that is true, it's not necessarily an advantage; you do see the claim that the decipherment of Linear B is entirely spurious, a product of the decipherers' imaginations.

I believe this teardown function runs on unmount whether or not the dependency array is empty.
I’m not familiar with RN ecosystem specifically but in the Flutter universe at least getting down deep into native code is built in with well defined and first class extension points. Not sure the point you’re making actually applies unless maybe I misunderstand something.
>I expect little to no digital art (images, videos, films, music, writing) will be sold for profit by human artists 10 years from now

you think AI auto-generated movies will kill the human film industry? AI novels? these are both fundamentally different from the kind of recombination that DALL-E is doing.

>the only reason I haven't extended that to physical media like sculpture or street art is that I don't know whether we'll have dextrous enough robots to make those yet (though dextrous robots will indubitably come soon as well).

>these AI algorithms are very much meant to kill the image industry, whether that was the intention of the researchers or not.

hmm
I took it to mean a private network connecting two end points, not necessarily connecting two private networks, just that the tunnel (the network between them) was virtual and secure so the traffic exchanged couldn't be eavesdropped on, or modified, by every random node as it passed though the untrusted internet.

I might have been influenced by the product we were selling though. These were dial up users on workstations looking to access their company's LAN so the idea of connecting two discrete private networks wouldn't have fit as well. There was also a lot of focus on the insecurity of passing traffic (even encrypted traffic) over the internet. We had companies paying us a premium to sign up for the service and host their gateway on our network so that the traffic between the users who dialed in and the company's own network never left the ISPs network (never reached the internet at large). I knew at the time it was marketing and that with a well encrypted connection it shouldn't matter if the traffic ever left our "cloud", but it could have helped to shape my view of the technology.

Clients ate that up too. The internet was scary to them. Being able to say that their employee will dial directly into our equipment, and that no packet would pass through a device we didn't operate until the moment it hits your company's gateway made a lot of companies feel better about letting workers remote in.
I think that’s a recurrent theme with deep learning: it’s incredible, almost magical, when it’s well adapted to a specific task that fits specific parameters. But failure modes are a minefield.
The fediverse is by design about manually managing your subscriptions. You only see content from people you follow and you're the one who completely controls the presentation of that content.

This entire article is built on the wrong premise that people use social media for entertainment. I certainly don't — I'm not open to any content discovery on Instagram/Facebook/Twitter at all. I use social media to connect with people I mostly already know, and the platforms getting in the way, begging with their "you may enjoy this" is bloody annoying. I'm building my own fediverse project for a reason, after all.
They are cheap and plentiful. On every street corner for like a dollar a ride plus time. They are also light weight. A segway is huge. It's awkward to ride for first timers compared to an intuitive scooter. Its expensive. There aren't segways on every street corner for rent.
Not quite true: Windows containers run natively on Windows. As of Windows 11, even Server 2022 containers can run using process isolation.

Something hilarious to me is that "multi-arch" images are a thing, and can result in the same dockerfile building a Windows image on a Windows PC, and a Linux image on a Linux PC!

Yeah they think they know React Native until they have to debug something that is outside the happy path that is provided to them.

These people probably have never worked on a production RN app or done upgrades and maintenance for one.

"The quantities of intercepted bologna are so large that it’s hard to believe "
At least for Australia and New Zealand, who are probably the most biosec paranoid countries, there are a large number of reasons. mostly do to with introduction of pests and other potentially ecologically damaging effects, see introduction of cane toads. Those pests can be anything from viruses to mites (see current bee crises) through to domestic animals. Part of this paranoia comes from the evolutional isolation, and part of it comes from the fact that they are islands, and so it is feasible to implement measures to block the importation of foreign materials.

Food, unless it has been thoroughly cooked or cured, is a risk and the diversity of stuff people bring back is enormous. Obviously Australia and New Zealand import food, but that requires licences and is regulated and inspected.

I would have thought that land border inspections would be less paranoid about food provided that the neighbouring country has similar regulations. But I guess that better describes e.g. mainland EU borders or the US-Canada border rather than the US-Mexico border.
The bike solved that too

The clouds (and presumably anything floating in them) ‘orbit’ the planet much faster than the planet rotates. It only takes about 4 days for the upper cloud decks to circle the planet.
There already are models that can do 3D models. There’s a few Clip-guides text to image ones for avatar and character designs, one that can create 3D scenes with animated human figures, and Nvidia’s NERF looks amazing. Give it a few photos and it’ll create a full 3D fly through.

These models are rudimentary for now, but will improve rapidly.

Mix in actual deps coming from other hooks, changing as the components re-render, and multiple layers of "custom hooks" with more of the same and it's like trying to hold back a tsunami.
Exactly this, even for things that might seem positive.

Every time you say to yourself “I like this guy, I’ll break the rules and hook him up” you’re setting the next tech up for a really bad day.
this is already known, and has been talked about.
I find fermenting more trouble than it's worth, even if you like the taste (which I personally don't overly do).

I make a lot of hot sauce (grow my own peppers) and usually just make a mash, boil that for a bit, and then essentially can it. If the pH is low enough and you pasteurize everything & sanitize your equipment, it's shelf stable for a long time.
I think the current output of AI art is mostly commercial but I'm sure an artist will come along and use it in some way different that exceeds the current use. Probably something that doesn't use text prompts or some other clever way.

Nearly unreadable on my third browser (first two couldn't show), font sizes aren't adjustable, navigation is pretty hard, color palette is awful. Really, an ASCII text would be better IMO - sans images.
I feel the same way. I have attention deficit disorder: it's really hard for me to concentrate on "boring" tasks. However, I actually have hyperattention when it comes to stuff I find interesting.

I've been programming since I was 14, I really love computers but the business aspect really turns me off. I can do it well if I need to but it just doesn't interest me like the operating systems, programming languages, virtual machines...

So when the time came for me to choose between a career in technology or something else like medical or law school, I chose something else. I'm somewhat comfortable now, still developing my career. I come here every day to read and talk about technology and sometimes I'll even publish a project on GitHub. Still wonder what it would have been like had I made a different choice.
I am not American but I have been a digital nomad for the past three years.

I am currently living in a nice duplex in a condo in Thailand. We have a big coworking with soundproof rooms for meetings, a 80m infinity pool on the rooftop, a good gym, surrounded by nice and cheap restaurants. Beaches almost everywhere and nice small islands to do diving.

I am paying 600$/month for the apartment. 250$ for the food. I haven't cooked anything for the past 6 months.

I am currently making roughly 50 times the local monthly salary.

Mostly working with my clients, doing some small charity works on the weekend and using all the facilities to get back in shape.

And more importantly, I am living with peace of mine. Nobody is annoying me with insane politics. I don't care about BLM, don't care about feminism, don't care about MGTOW, don't care about gender theory, don't care about white privilege, don't care about whether men can get pregnant or not.

I just try to be useful for the society around me, I feel a little bit bad about not paying taxes here, so I do my best to do some charity and helped a few local businesses with tech.

But overall, I am doing it 30% for economic reasons and 70% for political reasons. It feels good to meet with normal hardworking people.

Oh, and Thai people are really the nicest people as long as you respect them and try to make the effort of understanding their way of life.
My take is stop listening to venture capitalists. There is no right or wrong salary level. However, there should be a common understanding that there will be some level of sacrifice in the short-term, for the long-term. However, if your co-founders have real expenses, 150k or more might reflect that. A family of four, with student loans, living in a high cost area, when the person was making 250k...that sounds like a sacrifice to me.

On the other hand, if they want the startup to match the market rate job they are turning down to join the startup...that's a problem.

Or, if you don't have the money to pay, reasonable or not, you can't pay what you don't have.

An even bigger problem is if you can't have a discussion and work this out amongst yourselves - you have an even bigger problem. This is probably the easiest co-founder conflict you'll run into and you're not even officially co-founders. It only gets harder from here.
The point about the art being soulless, safe, and sanitized struck me as absolutely correct. The savage, provocative art will still reside with human artists because they won’t be shackled by their creator.
IMO it's not about the net, that's a deliberate distraction, teens are smarter than that media BS ... They're looking at: college debt vs. likely incomes, cost of housing, burgeoning political madness, and most of all Greta Thunberg. If I was a teen ... my future'd look bleak.
Yes, too bad about the downvotes but let me add on that and ask those who disagree what P stands for in WEP and WPA? lol. Wep is wired equivalent privacy.

A connection that does not provide privacy like a GRE tunnel for example is called a tunnel never a VPN or more and GRE specifically connects networks which are typically private.

You can also have VPN between two ASes on on the internet which are public networks. Wrong is wrong. Give me another argument to shoot down against VPNs lol.

The correct term for both private and non-private network tunnels is an overlay network (includes stuff like 6-in-4).
