“I think Mississippi has led on social and cultural issues for years,” says [Mississippi Governor Tate Reeves], and he plans to keep that lead. Though he declines to say which policies he and the Mississippi legislature will target next, “there will certainly be opportunities for us to do [more].”

Meanwhile, one area that Reeves and co is most definitely not leading on is making sure that the capitol city of his state, with a population of almost 200,000 people, has potable, running water. https://www.nytimes.com/2022/09/01/us/mississippi-water-clim...
Certainly not, it would be a disaster.
BTW, another book I can't recommend enough in the same vein:
https://www.amazon.com/How-Raise-Adult-Overparenting-Prepare...

I forget if it was this book or somewhere else I heard it, but they had a pretty pithy comment that's stuck with me since - something along the lines of "The objective of parenting isn't to raise good kids, your job as a parent is to raise good adults".

Tolerated is taking on a wide range is meanings here. On one the of the spectrum, absolutely no, part of a free society is not forcing people to tolerate speech they find intolerable. If I go to a TED talk about fixing poverty and the speaker talks about his plan for eugenics and a final solution, I will walk out. In the other end of the spectrum, the government may disappear people who's speech they or the society that votes them in intolerable.

You can be anywhere along that spectrum without it being some inevitable slide towards the government disappearing people. Freedom to associate is a form of expression.

Building a multi platform video conferencing app that is also stable and performant is extremely challenging. I can understand Microsoft's decision. That said, it's unfortunate that Linux users aren't going to have access to a desktop client anymore.

Yip, although there's also length contraction in play. The universe just starts contorting itself to ensure nothing ever exceeds the speed of light.

What the GP post is referring to is called a 'relativistic rocket'. You can find plenty of calculators for them, like here [1]. It leads to really mind-bending scenarios. For instance a single human could easily travel a billion light years within their lifetime, requiring "only" to travel at 1G acceleration for 40 years. Of course in that time a billion years would have really passed outside of our relativistic rocket.

If it ultimately turns out that there is no fundamental law of the universe that makes long-term rates of relatively low acceleration impossible, then the future will be a simply unimaginable place. Time itself will start to lose meaning as it becomes as variable as distance is today, at least for those able to travel.

I started in web dev 17 years ago, but didn’t get my first professional dev job until 3 years ago.

I had never had to learn angular, react, separated backend and frontend when writing code for my own stuff and my own company.

I would regularly process as much as I could on the server and ship the HTML and a JSON object to the browser and then just use native JS or more SSR from there.

My sites and apps were complex, just as complex as the stuff we were making in my first two dev jobs but the dev ex was so much nicer.

Shipping a heap of JS to the browser and getting that to do the heavy lifting of making the HTML etc just felt like an anti pattern but I went with it because “that’s the way we do it now”

Seeing Remix, Laravel, RoR still going, Astro etc is starting to convince me that perhaps separated FE and API isn’t the one true way and the old way might have been better.
"While it continues to be the most widely used database engine in the world"

It realy depends what do you mean by that, yes it's shipping in every phones and browser, but I don't consider that as a database. Is the windows registry a database?

Oracle, MySQL, PG, MSSQL are the most widly used DB in the world, the web runs on those not SQLite.
Why should you need to revolt or organize to get what you've already worked for?

Because you won't get it otherwise. They're not going to give it back or forgo it in future because controlling a greater share of resources gives them more leverage.
> Ford’s initiative was not widely copied overnight. In 1916, the federal government passed an act to require an eight-hour day and overtime pay for railroad workers, but most workers still didn’t have those protections, and working hours remained a hotly contested issue. "Demands for the five-day week began to proliferate in 1919, a year in which 4 million American workers went out on strike,"
My God. Really?!
This is what happens when optimists win and the realists are cut out of the conversation.

As a taxi service, I believe I would want to know if I'm about to have a shortage of taxis in any one area of town, and I'd better only have a concentration in one area of town for an event the entire world is talking about, like a reunion tour or a championship game.

Even with the hack, the moment all of the taxis started converging on one area of town, alarms should have been going off and managers should have been asking questions. But that's not what happened, because we say yes the moment money enters the conversation, without bothering to ask what it says about you as a person if you'll do anything for money, or for that matter if the money is even real or just a trick to get our attention.
Certainly not time since many more families are dual income or have only one involved parent. Also the quality of the time matters. Weekend time and after-work time is not equivalent to morning and midday productive time.
At the rate it's moving it doesn't seem too far off, but I think it's just a tad too early.
there this is song, from Unknown Mortal Orchestra, called Hunnybee; which the composer wrote for his daughter...

btw, i wished my parents were a bit harsh when i was at my early 20s working as a bicycle courier to get money for a bicycle touring trip around South America... maybe if they told me i could got involved in an accident and get f#$%&! or dead i would have this insight 3 years sooner than by my own
Is this an ad? Title has got nothing to do with the contents, it's about some conference.

EDIT: is this a talk? I have to subscribe to watch it. No thanks, maybe when it'll be posted as a YouTube link I'll watch.
Call me a "doomer" or whatever, but I think the inevitable demise of the US empire starts with balkanization (i.e., the states splitting into their regional factions). Basically like a second civil war, except it will look quite different and probably won't involve actual warfare. More like a slowly escalating defiance of laws at a regional level. Without wading into the trap of specific examples, I'd say we're already seeing this play out.
Why did you analyse the situation from everyone's perspective except the worker's?
Me and another colleague on a team of 6 have the same arrangement. Works well enough but if i worked even less then the limited exposure to the flow of relevant information would start to show. I might make up for that by declaring that i will only focus on some parts of our domain but that would make me less flexible than the rest of the team and i would feel more like a burden.

So there are parts of the world where you could reasonably go to a the day weekend if you wanted enough.

A nice side effect is that if you live in a country with progressive tax you end up getting a higher net per-hour wage than if you worked 5 days because of the lower income and thus lower tax rate.

IIUC the US has this perma-work culture where if you don't want to always be working and earning the most you can earn then something must be wrong with you, maybe you're a commie or a hippie or sth. I hear that Japan had the same but this is radically changing as a result of the pandemic. Maybe the US will change a bit too?
Which is truly terrible. I mean, here's a valid email that was used in the early 90s:

This always worries me, and I never post reviews online as a result. Where I live, there are pretty severe penalties for defamation, and I'd rather not find out how it goes in court. However, it seems like Google or Yelp could bind both parties to arbitration if they want to list their business or post reviews of businesses on their website. Is there are reason they don't do that?
Thank you. I really needed just this sort of framing to help me with my toddler.
like others have said, my biggest fear as a parent is traffic. There's a fairly busy street at both ends of my neighborhood. We walk and cross those streets enough that i'm confident in their abilities but i have zero confidence in drivers. There's street racers and drunks constantly, a guy mowing his own yard was killed by street racers crashing into each other and then spilling over into his yard and crushing him. I routinely see people running the red lights at rush hour and the whole intersection reeks of weed between 4 and 6 PM. The list goes on. It's the traffic that scares me as a parent.

"Why should we continue to award 100% of the gains of new technologies to capitalists?"

Because they assume the risk of these ventures. Ever hear the statistics about how 95% of startups fail in the first x years? Meanwhile, the guy clicking around in AutoCAD did nothing to further the rise of productivity. Why should he be gifted the benefits of other's toil simply for breathing?
Maybe they can figure out a way to harness the rage/anger of people who call into these things into electricity... That would probably be near unlimited energy.
If you're familiar with Go, go for it. But there isn't really a compelling reason for a person or team to switch from Java to Go; Java also has a rich ecosystem of templating engines.
The performance gap to the top-end Nvidia cards will get much larger as they release new cards later this year, though.
They're totally right, it's so fast that I assumed it was static.
Disclaimer: I am a Vitess Maintainer.

Please find my answer inline

1. You can't have single database view of all shards

- Vitess does query planner and routing for the application so application does not have to know about shards. Yes, Vitess gives a view of a single database.

2. No distributed ACID

- This has been talked a lot feature and it is in our roadmap to provide. Currently, we have a twoPC implementation which we do not recommend for production use.
Right now the users of vitess either choose their sharding key in such a way that all the queries in a transaction goes to single shard or the application can handle best effort multi shard transaction.

3. No distributed JOINs

- Vitess does support distributed joins, aggregation, subqueries and other complex queries. Vitess thrive to be 100% Mysql compatible. If anyone encouter such query, a github issue helps in knowing and prioritizing.
You literally noted above that 100% of the gains are not going to the capitalists but rather are being split (using your numbers) around 5:2 among capitalists and workers.

But, remember, that’s before considering the impact of healthcare costs (which are majority paid by capitalists and majority benefiting the workers).

But really, leaks can happen through a bunch of ways. An old hard drive thrown away, a stupid password on some online storage...

But I'm not surprised people do it, to be honest. Porn is big these days and people get enticed to make their own.
You can rationalize all you'd like, but you made an agreement under sound mind and choosing to not fulfill it is slacking. It's dishonest. Wage theft or anything else is immaterial to your agreement. You are free to leave at any time and market yourself to another employer if you no longer wish to partner with your current employer. Or, if you feel your agreement is no longer fair or meets your goals, you can speak with your employer about changing the terms of the agreement.

I run into so many issues when trying to do video calls and screen share. Random disconnects, random program crashes, extreme latency, distorted video, ect. It is really frustrating when your company uses it for an internal chat/meeting solution.
Yes you would be right I haven't taken a class on analytic number theory. Perhaps excuse my lack of knowledge on the subject but why would psi(x)=0 for x in [1, 2)? Λ(2) is not 0. You are right that arXiv moderators don't review papers in the sense of peer review but they still check over them and I haven't heard of an occasion where something that was originally placed in General Mathematics or General Physics was later moved to another category. Safe to say if there was anything substantial in the proof we would have heard of something from the experts in number theory by now.
If you're going to make strong claims about an individual or a company in printed text, then make sure you have the receipts to prove it. The only thing "special" about this is that it happened online, and not in a newspaper or other deadtree publication.
I can't seem to find it, do you have a link?
As a practical matter, many applications span multiple directories, so there is not just one file to delete. If the app, is simple enough, though, sure -- just replacing the executable can work.

Some examples of apps spanning many files and directories are configuration files, cached data, and plugins. For uninstallation, much of that stuff should definitely be deleted; for upgrades, there are occasionally conflicts which installer systems can help to manage (though, often enough, they can only do part of what needs to be done).
This explanation does not assuage my feelings of contempt for this process, which I hold to be completely illegitimate and unconstitutional.
Really? Can you tell me where perpetual swaps and automated market makers were used in the past?

IMO, this is one of many reasons we need an anonymous yet verifiable review system. I'm not positive how to even approach such a problem, to be honest.

I like to leave reviews, but not when places insist attaching my name to them(Google). Not because I'm lying, but because I don't want retaliation in some form if I return, or some psycho showing up at my house.

Sure I could make a burner with a fake name, but that's too much hassle.
A ton of capitalist-favoring policies assume a perfect free market (all participants have equal knowledge, transactions are instant, etc). Not a single market like that actually exists in reality. We've created many capitalist policies which allow the exploitation of such imperfect markets.

"Job Stability" being a factor in the labor market is a perfect example. People are afraid to leave a stable job for a less stable one even it pays more because they know it takes time and effort and luck to find another job (aka imperfections in the job market). If your unstable job disappears, that might mean there's no money for food or no health insurance. This puts a huge thumb on the scale in favor of the capitalist. If they can offer "stability" then they can also lower their wages considerably.

That’s Google Closure [1] with an ‘s’, not ClojureScript [2] with a ‘j’.

ClojureScript uses the Closure Compiler to optimise its JS output, but that’s the only relationship, and the name is a coincidence.

You are looking at a Platonic ideal of an individual and disregarding their actual choice when you take into account their social environment. "Work a very exploitative job or die" is not freedom.
> The idea that all apps should use some kind of system style that dictates shape for every single control is... Odd. I don't know of any system that operates like this

We came damn close to every OS operating like this in the late 90s. Sadly the future arrived.
The sad truth is that Jews have always been used as a convenient scapegoat for grievances of all kinds, and this is just as true on the left as on the nationalist right. For example, Marx famously blamed the rise of bourgeois capitalism on the Jews, and this casual anti-Semitism was picked up by many on the left.
That's fine? The alternative is a shitty Electron app that won't bother conforming with desktop standards. If Microsoft is giving me the option between a frying pan and a fire, I'll take their olive branch.

On your other hand, apps like Discord are completely broken on modern Wayland systems. Discord's team never bothered to fix it, so now the only "native" way to use Discord is in Chromium. You could characterize that as a regression, but I'm perfectly happy with fully featured webapps as an alternative to misbehaving native apps.
(1). why not just make it painful to be a foreigner there. Raise taxes on rent/property if you're foreign by 3-4x (or whatever makes sense after an analysis of building new housing from foreigner tax dollars). If you don't want to scare off the ones already there then make it not retroactive. People like to make these situations tougher than they need to be. Mostly it's impossible because politicians are paid off by the 1% (foreign and domestic). The Portuguese have a right to enjoy their country without foreigners coming in and buying it off and pushing them to the edge of poverty. Globalism has got us in a tenuous situation in the West depending completely on the likes of China for our style of living. I can understand the Portuguese being angry with the situation.
>Ginther claimed in subsequent online reviews that the company defrauded, scammed or deceived him by charging him for cedar siding they knew he had not ordered. He argued at trial that what he had said was true.

>But in a ruling on the case, B.C. Supreme Court Justice Nitya Iyer found that Ginther was not a credible witness and he had not proven the allegations.

The article isn't clear if his claims were true or not. The judge doesn't seem to believe him. Those are very specific claims. If they were untrue then I could see this outcome / I don't necessarily disagree.

I haven't posted many negative reviews online but the few I have all have been specific and accurate.

Yes, GUI work is a pain because of the way event loops and ownership in existing UI toolkits work, they're generally not designed for this. But Arc<Mutex< is likely your friend here.
