> we are indeed underdeveloped savages

We really are. I’ve been trying to improve myself, and I’ve been practicing a form of cultivating metta. If anyone reading this wants to experiment with their mind, this is a truly difficult practice. The next time someone wrongs you or hurts you, intentionally or unwittingly, try to show some compassion and understanding for them. That act goes against our very nature, and undermines our savagery at a very deep level. I did this last week to someone who accidentally wronged me at work, and it was an amazing experience. My anger completely disappeared and I felt terrible for this person once I began to understand what was going on inside their mind. I think that this and other practices hold the key to our uplift.
thanks. I don't think I should have to log in to type a document or edit a video. :/ Thank you!
> If someone can implement the majority of org-mode in a better editor,

If that were easy, then that other editor would be an emacs. There's a reason emacs gets all these modes, and its because writing extensions is easy. If I want to extend something like VScode or Pycharm, or whatever, it is a massive undertaking.
I realised that I made a small mistake in my code sample above, but I can’t edit the post anymore. It should have been:

[x] Example item
[ ] Subitem
[ ] Another Sub-Sub Item
Continuation of the first item’s description

(Last line is indented, because continuations of descriptions have to be indented.)

The “Another Sub-Sub Item” wouldn’t make sense in my mind, because the idea is that the text maps to well-defined data structures, in this case a tree structure. So an item can have child items, which each can have child items, and so on. However, “Subitem” doesn’t have direct child items.

I find this restriction important, because it would allow to parse the text into relatively simple programmatic models.
I use Modafinil and Ritalin from time to time, when I want a good working session.
I would not abuse it, but if you take doses smaller than the recommended dose they give to people with real symptoms it's probably fine, or should I say it becomes a viable cost/benefits analysis.

I mostly do it because I like the thrill of building something in one weekend. I would not like to live a life where I have to use it to keep up with work though.
Here are things that I would consider significantly more important than wanting to pump up employees by giving them information on partnerships:

- making sure your business model is viable

- involving employees in the software development process so they understand the user's perspective when developing the product

- paying people fairly

- helping employees structure work/life balance

- having clear and scoped value streams to prevent undue burden on the organization

- rigorously test business assumptions on an ongoing basis

- leading by example through being a decent human and treating others humanely

While information is power, secrets are not what makes a company valuable. Corporate espionage is trivial these days -- you can't stop people from talking. Nowadays, the best competitive advantage is execution. If you can execute well on the basics, you'll blow 95% of the competition out of the water because it takes a certain kind of person to cultivate talent. Your competition is only human, and they naturally want to cut corners, which is why they rely on mind games, or what some might call _sales_.

Still, it seems polite to answer your question about the effects of pumping up your team with info on upcoming partnerships, so I will despite the fact that I think you're coming at it from the wrong angle. Ask yourself why would they care about this information you're providing? If they do seem like they care, either:

- they stand to gain directly from this partnership or

- they're putting on a performance for social and political reasons or

- you hired employees who fail to reason properly, in which case you have bigger problems than their enthusiasm

If you want to provide more context without giving away too much info, please feel free to. Otherwise, I hope this answers your question.
My experience with Modula-3 was very similar. People hated it.
I fail to see how letting crooks mine cryptos on Heroku’s free boxes would lead to improved sales. Slack is a different story, but all hosting/CI/etc providers have been pulling back free offerings as they get abused for crypto mining
> like the homophones b and v

They aren't :) where are you from? do you pronounce "vaso" and "baso" in the same way? (in Argentina and Spain at least they are clearly distinct)
"What if we train our people and they leave?"
"What if we don't and they stay?"

Forward-looking entrepreneurs are building in public. In my opinion, sharing news and information with core team is overall a positive investment.

If there's a lack of trust, maybe, there are bigger problems in the startup to fix?
this is what I use. Should be more than enough for amateur or home movies and basic effects.
The main difference here is orthography as opposed to the actual pronunciation of the word - Welsh uses y and w as vowels, as well as multiple 2-letter clusters for a single sound (eg, dd is the same as one of the English th sounds, or rh and ll are both single sounds).

So in that sense, a word that may look bad (eg bwyta, to eat) actually has no consonant clusters in it - actually being pronounced 'boy-ta'.
They’re also still flying the A380 and A340.

There's more. It can also mean "with the house" or "using the house" (as an implement to a verb). Such as "heitän sinua talolla", "I throw a house at you" (e.g. Monopoly house piece).
Caffeine is supposed to block the receptors that tells your body you are tired. Which is why I’m wondering how it could no longer be effective. Though, maybe a “reset” through stopping coffee, as some other have suggested, is all that’s needed.
I realized 15 years ago that close to 100% of people who talk about him, don’t have the first inkling who they’re talking about, when they could easily have at least a better idea. One of the biggest problems big brain people face is that it sounds more clever and worldly to assign complicated self serving ulterior motives to basically everyone. If they have incalculably higher influence than oneself, one can hardly refrain.
What if you have a kid who misbehaves alot
> most everybody has a mobile phone with high-quality camera in it and most people carry their phone with them all the time.

I feel like a small craft in the sky is hardly going to look good on even the best phone cameras. Ever try to take a photo of a plane. These cameras suck at anything past 2x zoom. The overall point though I think is sound, filmed incidence rates (even if still in crappy quality) should be plentiful and thus far I'm not aware of any footage that is remotely interesting (from amateurs at least)
When your kid is sick, the entire schedule get disrupted

Europe seems to be doing something on this front. SEPA Instant is... instant just like credit cards. All we need is an interface that's as easy to use as credit-cards (type number, money go) and the visa/mastercard monopoly is going to either get real cheap or real non-existent.
> A simple way to state the proposition is: in any language there are things you cannot write in the language itself: they have to be supplied by your interpreter (or the compiler generated code which is “interpreted” by the CPU). For example you can’t write OR because if the first case is true the second case is not evaluated — you can’t write that as a function.

Not in a strict language. But it's trivial to write in a lazy language like Haskell, or the plain lambda calculus.

For a language like binary lambda calculus [1], what would be the things that you cannot write in the language itself?

Forums, 4chan and random blogs are the last-ditch avenue for information sharing among a small, extremely attentive, more-paranoid-than-average segment of the population. They are not an effective means for journalism or mass political speech, even when the facts of that speech are clearly established.
I don't really disagree but I want to note that most of Wikipedia hasn't been subject to an edit war.

So most of Wikipedia isn't decided by Wikipedia's ritual, but just by whoever put in the effort to write it.
They haven’t. But a eulogy is premature.

Ah, the renowned human editors/fact-checkers/moderators that Facebook employs, great.

I found interesting how during the podcast, Zuckerberg compared the suppression of the story to due process in the justice system. A snippet from the podcast (with minor edits, starting from 7:25 of this video clip [1]):

> Joe Rogan: is there regret for not having it evenly distributed and for throttling the distribution of that story?

> [...]

> Zuckerberg: yeah yeah I mean it sucks because I mean it turned out after the fact...I mean the fact directors looked into it no one was able to say it was false right. So basically it had this period where it was getting less distribution

> it sucks though I think in the same way that probably having to go through like a criminal trial but being proven innocent in the end sucks. Like it still sucks that you had to go through a criminal trial but at the end you're free

> I don't know if the answer would have been don't do anything or don't have any process. I think the process was pretty reasonable you know. We still let people share it. But obviously you don't want situations like that

Yes, let's solve bike theft by replacing it with murder, that'll surely make the world a better place.

Maybe we could be merciful and just cut off their hands so they can't do it again, I hear that worked just great in the middle ages. I wonder why they stopped?
I suppose it helps that truth is self-consistent? You could write articles explaining a flat earth model but that would introduce many ad-hoc arguments that violate other observations and confirmed physics phenomena.
Don't forget how "free unlimited photo storage" ended too after competitors shifted their business model.
I would be totally stoked if you put anything at all together
I feel like you are working 3h/day, is it a part time job?
Psychological inoculation improves resilience against truth as well.

For instance “group think”. I’m sure you’ve noticed.

15 years because the Bitcoin whitepaper was written in 2008?

The Internet Protocol whitepaper was written in 1974.

15 years later, in 1989, real-life use cases of the internet were at least as thin on the ground as crypto use cases today.
Another nice entry would be the fact that cosmic rays can flip hardware bits with sometimes drastic consequences. Unfortunately I don't have a good source link, but veritasium has a video on YouTube about it.
There was a IIRC German politician who was part of a prank involving Wikipedia, someone claimed in his Wikipedia article that he had 200+ names. Lazy news writers quoted the Wikipedia article as a "fun fact" segment, and the Wikipedia article then turned around and said "here's an authoritative source on that 200+ names..."
One answer is: more frequently each year.
When I was at the University of Hawaii in the 1980s, the main library would always have one isle of books out for fumigation. I guess they just worked through the whole collection then started over.

I also made use of a small special collection that didn't get the same care. Even though the books were only 10-15 years old, they would often crumble when I opened them, riddled with worm holes.
No. You would have extra problems. Not just from the maintenance issues when going along the migration path that Linus Torvalds pointed out. But also especially, for one thing, from the poor thinking generally involved, such as people thinking that the way to address a problem where it is stated that the POSIX API for I/O is reasonable is to "kill POSIX".
It’s not that different than initiating an Apple Pay for. Safari on Mac and reaching into your wallet on your iPhone. The framework is there. The UX would be to get a prompt in a similar way and Face ID unlock
Trump proved he was a unique evil after he tried to obstruct the peaceful transfer of power by usurping democracy.

Remember, there are also questions about Trump's loyalty to the United States, he was literally placed under a counter-intelligence investigation for fear he was working for a foreign power, the results of this investigation are still unknown.

Extremism in the defense of liberty isn't a vice. When it comes to obstructing Trump and his acolytes, the ends always justify the means.
What are some unusual things you have done with Tasker?
If this approach works, Google could help. They scanned lots of books [1].

What do you use Tasker for in 2022?
No, MBA is for financial engineering growing startups into IPO or acquisition scams (being checky) Building a startup is very different from what they teach in MBA programs.

You want to read books on this list: https://verdverm.com/books/ The Lean Startup - Eric Ries was the seminal work (with Steve Blank). Crossing the Chasm, The Challenger Sale, and Don’t Make Me Think should be near the front of the list. Nice benefit is that the list costs less than a month of tuition

> They are also called postpositions because, unlike prepositions, they follow the noun or the element they are modifying

I did learn of particles as pre and post positions but I never really thought of them as modifying. I’ve always thought of them more as connecting and showing relationships between words and sentences.
>I strongly disagree with FB's example for "Better citations in action".

I think you misread something. The article that was originally cited is not relevant. It was about someone else becoming CEO for a different organization.
How you use your Android to the maximum?
With Danny and Jim as authors of the book (with Gregor), that’s likely, though perhaps “direct inspiration” is rather strong. “An inspiration” might be better.
MS Teams? Skype 4 Business? IRC?

Discord is leaps and bounds above all of those, for very different reasons.
Not only that but there are decisionmakers in organizations that also use free tiers for stuff in their private lives. Piss one of them off enough and suddenly you can lose a big sale or existing customer.

So tinkering with free plans downwards can have unforeseen consequences.

And with the amount of data slack uses so low and costs of bandwidth and spinning rust approaching zero - the idea that free tier limitation are anything other than create a painpoint for people to upgrade is a joke.
They finally got us guys! is anyone surprised at all?
Did no one else react to when Mark said they have "files" on people? It was in the context of someone trying to run a facebook page anonymously and he said Facebook will look at their file to determine if they're a bot or not. Meaning the file on the person running the page, that they already have.

At least that's how I interpreted it but no one else seems to be talking about this.

I mean it's not surprising, it would just kinda confirm everyone's fears already that Google and Meta can track any person regardless of if they give out their real name or not.
Well in the EU credit/debit card fees are capped at 0.3/0.2% so while not exactly fair it’s not a huge deal compared to the US (where everyone is paying for credit card users rewards and cash backs).

AFAIK only SEPA direct debit transfers can be canceled/reversed so normal transfers are still not (easily) reversible.
>Food employees must clean their hands in a handwashing lavatory and may not clean their hands in a sink used for food preparation or in a service sink or a curbed cleaning facility used for the disposal of mop water and similar liquid waste.

So a restroom.

>Food must be stored in a clean, dry location where it is not exposed to splash, dust, or other contamination and is at least 15 centimeters (6 inches) above the floor.

A shelf.

>Sufficient refrigeration facilities or other effectively insulated facilities that are conveniently located must be provided to assure the maintenance of potentially hazardous food at required temperatures during storage. Each mechanically refrigerated facility storing potentially hazardous food must be provided with a numerically scaled indicating thermometer, accurate to ±1°C (2°F), located to measure air temperature in the warmest part of the facility.

A fridge and a thermometer

>Fruits and vegetables may be washed by using chemicals as specified in 21 C.F.R. 173.315, April 1, 1996. Any sink used to wash, prepare, store, or soak food must be indirectly connected to the sewer through an airbreak.

This a U shaped a filter on the drain hose, you can self install and cost a few bucks.

>A ventilation hood system must be provided over all cooking equipment which produces steam, excessive smoke, grease vapors, or odors.

A hood a standard in every kitchen.

Walls and a roof?.

These are sanitary requirements but none of them are extra imo
After reading the discussion here I decided to delete my paypal account. So I attempted to log in, and it required me to provide a 2FA authentication using SMS. Problem is that I don't have access to the registered number anymore.

So now I can't log in, which prevents me from deleting the account.

Very nice, sort of reminds me of the Azabo from the Book of the New Sun. There is also a detach-3, but couldn't find any more story, nor an index to these stories in the website.

Edit: oh you are the author, very good writing.
Only "you" and "3rd person" are individuals in this story. "I" is not an individual but a giant multibillion dollar corporation with vast reach that has swayed elections in the past. Not just some dude relaying a message.
So you can't say "rest" without mentioning a tree? Finnish is funny in similar ways due to its ubiquitous forests. To "hunt" is "metsästää", "metsä" being "forest" the place you went to look for food.
I'm confused why you have such completely different mindsets when it comes to taxis vs food. In both cases, the quality of the experience depends fully on the person you pick, your only indicator of quality are user reviews and Uber's only regulation is demoting people that get bad reviews or suspending them if they get reported.

So why would you trust any random person that makes an Uber driver account to drive you around, but not do the same for restaurants?
One thought, most targets are not built as -ffreestanding and while the kernel doesn't link against a libc, it does provide most symbols with the same semantics. This allows the compiler to perform libcall optimizations.

For example, calls to printf can be transformed into calls to puts under certain conditions. The compiler can check + find those, even after optimizations. There are many of these tricks for the str* functions that assume NUL terminated C strings.

Though perhaps if the mem* functions were used to implement a fat strings implementation, many of those might still apply.

Point being; the compiler can help when your strings representation is first class by the language spec.

The compiler can also help with FORTIFY; it can insert compile time length checks in certain cases that can make code safer. This avoids treewide rewrites which are relatively painful to do for the Linux kernel due to its development model, but not impossible. That's another barrier to a new string representation and a library of routines for these.

That said, strscpy is not part of the language spec, so I'm guessing unless it's implemented in terms of language defined functions, it gets neither libcall optimizations nor fortified.
Tangentially related bit of curiosity - there is a long and narrow pedestrian/cycle tunnel under the Scheldt river in Antwerp. It was built in 1933, and access is via the original beautiful wooden escalators. Quite a neat bit of infrastructure!

What do you mean "preventing a certain kind of speech"? This is your own personaly crafted definition, not the consensus definition of censorship.
I'd suggest that #1 is already a strong part of house prices, at least in the UK (despite moving to Germany a few years ago, I've only looked at the end price here not the causes).

If you can reduce the cost of making new infrastructure to a pittance, I'd expect house prices to fall even in the absence of any change to the manufacturing costs.
