To get past `pip install -r requirements` I had to muck around with CFLAGS/LDFLAGS because I guess maybe on your system /opt/homebrew/opt/openssl is a symlink to something? On mine it doesn't exist, I just have /opt/homebrew/opt/openssl@1.1 symlinked to /opt/Cellar/somewhere.

The command that finally worked for me:

I'm unfamiliar with right wing communities. I've been involved in a fair number of left wing ones and the level of wishing-death-upon-opponents is scary, and it has grown much worse and bare knuckled over the years.

Yes exactly, any language with zero\low cost type definitions and natural use of custom types (they don't look second class in e.g operators) would automate what Joel calls Apps Hungarian (the original Hungarian notation). In fact, good custom types would make Apps Hungarian, the useful Hungarian notation, as useless as the Systems Hungarian.

This is a natural direction is programming language research, to make as much of program constraints and custom logic automatically checkable and enforced.

> Whatever happened to working hard to build a future for oneself?

People are discovering that working hard doesn't build a better future for oneself, it builds a better future for CEOs and shareholders.
US automakers absolutely struggled in the 70s when foreign car companies showed up and started competing. It wasn't Kia that gave them fits, it was Honda and Toyota. It was 100% an existential crisis, and unions made the situation worse. Which isn't to say that unions are necessarily bad and didn't produce good things for their workers, but they made it very difficult for the US auto industry to adapt.

A link to a long series about the interaction between US automakers and the unions is below. Of note is the story about how automakers' market share declined precipitously in the early eighties when Japanese automakers figured out the US market.

The US auto industry is not a great example of how a union can work with an employer in the face of existential threats.

> The GOP was in the White House when the Housing Bubble was brewed up in 2002–2005. President George W. Bush strongly pushed the finance industry to lend more to nonwhites at his Oct. 15, 2002, White House Conference on Increasing Minority Homeownership. There he told his federal regulators not to worry so much about traditional credit standards regarding down payments and documentation of income because he wanted to see 5.5 million more minority homeowners by 2010. ...

> Angelo Mozilo, CEO of Countrywide Financial...wanted to boost Countrywide’s share of the national mortgage market from 10 percent to 30 percent. He believed he could safely do that by increasing lending to marginal customers, especially Hispanics. ... In 2003, Mozilo, citing Bush’s push for minority home ownership, pledged to a Harvard audience that Countrywide would lend $600 billion to minority and lower-income borrowers by 2010. In 2005, he boosted that promise to one trillion dollars. ... Countrywide went under in 2008. ...

> For example, a 2015 paper by Lin, Liu, and Xie found that in a sample of 18,000 households: The difference in the mortgage delinquency rates between immigrants (15.7%) and natives (4.4%) is significant.

> Similarly, a 2013 paper by Luea, Reichenberger, and Turner revealed 2009 default rates for whites of 3.4 percent, blacks 11.3 percent (3.3 times the white rate), and Hispanics 16 percent (4.7 times the white rate)

> A 2013 paper by Reid featuring data from the fifty largest metro areas for mortgages originated just in 2005 shows that foreclosure rates by 2009 were twice as bad for blacks as whites and almost three times as bad for Hispanics as whites. By 2010, 10.5 percent of Hispanics were in foreclosure versus 4 percent of whites.

> According to Zillow, Hispanic neighborhoods nationally exploded in price by 280 percent from 2000 to 2006 versus about 160 percent for white neighborhoods. Remarkably, by the peak of the Bubble, the median home in a Hispanic neighborhood was worth almost a hundred thousand dollars more than the median home in a white neighborhood. Not surprisingly, the decline in home value from peak to trough was almost twice as severe in Hispanic neighborhoods as in white neighborhoods.

> In summary, immigration was seen as a vast boon to the housing market until it turned out that Hispanics tended not to be able to afford the huge mortgages they had been given. At that point in 2008, housing prices in several high-priced Hispanic-heavy states, such as California and Florida, plummeted, taking down financial institutions like Lehman Brothers, Washington Mutual, and Countrywide Financial. This carnage set off a national recession even in places without a Housing Bubble.

>Unionization is one of the best things happening

Some unionization works out well, especially when the union actually has the best interest of both the workers and company in mind. There are many times that self serving unions bleed workers through dues and protect non-productive workers to the benefit of no one, and in some cases, driving companies into bankruptcy.
For vitamin B12, the best source is liver, e.g. chicken liver (16.6 mcg / 100 g raw chicken liver) (when eating liver, one should take care to not eat too much, as liver, especially other kinds of liver than chicken liver, e.g. turkey liver, can provide too much vitamin A, but the quantity of chicken liver that provides enough B12 is much less than that which provides too much vitamin A).

For vitamin B6, garlic has a higher content (1.2 mg / 100 g) than all the sources listed at the link given above, with the exception of some kinds of nuts, e.g. pistachios.

> But generally, this is simply because of crime and bad schools due to the cycle of poverty.

What makes the schools bad, if they receive on-average marginally higher per-pupil funding than mostly-white schools [1]?

[1] on average, both Black and Latinx total per pupil expenditures exceed White total per pupil expenditures by $229.53 and $126.15 - https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/23328584198724... - I can't find a source now, but the average per-pupil funding is around $20,000, so a difference of $200 is negligible.

If you're surprised that the funding is almost the same, despite schools being funded by property taxes, which are much higher in whiter neighborhoods, that's because you were hoodwinked by the media. Schools are funded by local property taxes and state taxes, with the latter distributed to even-out the funding. For some mysterious reason, the latter funding source receives much less coverage than the former.

A serious answer: many people overvalued weed stocks when they were new, and reality did not match up. The stocks were priced far higher than they should have been had they been priced only on raw business fundamentals.

Lots of people bought weed stocks because they love weed, which doesn't mean that particular company will be able to turn a profit high enough to match the stock price they paid.
I disagree with the issue being that eBikes are too fast for cyclist lanes. At least in Silicon Valley (long uninterrupted blocks), the main problem is that eBikes accelerate much faster than normal bikes, but a typical road biker cruises at 22-25 mph. This means some inconsiderate eBikes overtake regular bikes in the 100ft immediately after a stop, then block the bike lane for the next few minutes because they're capped below normal bike speed.

If they're going to have mandatory governors, they should govern the acceleration curve, not the top speed (that would solve the NYC problem), and/or bump the max speed to 25mph (solving the suburbs problem).

I could see it working if it were indirect and at arms length. A bit of a planned neighborhood that included High and medium density housing near the factory, maybe kick a few bucks the developers way to get it built right. That way there is supply of reasonably priced housing nearby.

Pretty much all Tesla buyers, when complaining about their car, says "I love the car but". Even if you're anonymous, you need to pay lip service to your groups online, otherwise the online mob well... mobs you.

Its just the internet. In real life, we use subtle clues, like hair-cuts, styles, tattoos, clothing, to differentiate ourselves and indicate our viewpoints / set expectations.

Here on the internet, we only have words to set expectations. "I love the car but" says "I'm a fan of Tesla, don't hate me too badly".

"I like public transportation and live in a city but..." and other such indicators are just real-life emotions seeping into the discussion. As it should be. Its how humans act and its probably best if we accepted it rather than pretended we were unemotional, perfectly rational beings typing away on a keyboard over here.

may be true since it is a community of artists that tend to have their own sub-genres that they move in but I believe the other poster was just giving it as the most popular example. Deviantart is really just the tip of the digital art iceberg, you can search and find a multitude of other sites hosting art communities as well as the sites of individual creators, YouTube and Twitch streams, Discord servers, etc.

Can you expand on this? I'm not particularly familiar with the style of financial analysis they're doing in the study, but the authors claim the methods and variables they are using are standard and well-understood, and their numerical results seem to support the study's conclusion pretty well, at least to this layperson's eyes. I'd be interested to know what I'm missing in terms of the study's weaknesses, either in terms of statistical methods, or other limitations not discussed by the authors.

That is definitely not true. I have queer and trans friends, and they have legitimate worries. The "Don't Say Gay" bill in Florida is a fine example here, but there are so many more, including the very reasonable fear of Obergefell getting overturned.

As a member of a locally minority religion I NEVER bring it up at work and I always quickly direct the conversation into the nearest dead end if someone else brings it up.

It's easy not to talk about religion at work even when the population is not homogeneous.

> Anyway, it was during a digression—actually a digression within a digression— that Gruber talks about code blocks in Markdown and how one of his favorite features is that you don’t have to escape anything in a code block. You can paste source code directly into your Markdown document without any changes, and it will appear as expected in the rendered HTML.

True enough as far as it goes but, if you use that Markdown in some static site generators (SSGs), you may still have to massage it a bit so the SSG output won’t be borked. For a couple of examples:

- In Eleventy and Jekyll (and maybe others), you often have to wrap code blocks in `{% raw %}` and `{% endraw %}`.

- In Hugo, if you're including anything that Go initially “thinks” is real code rather than just a reproduction thereof, you must put comment characters around it: `{{< this >}}` isn't OK, but `{{</* this */>}}` is (and will display in Hugo as the desired `{{< this >}}`).

You seemed to be making the argument that without solar owning an EV may not make economic sense for the EV owner.

I don't think that's related to the outcomes of the transition to an EV mandate for new sales, which is what the respondent was asking about. Sure, it's nice to have your own solar panels, but it's not a requirement for EV ownership, and I was pointing out that your assertion, whether true or false, was unnecessary for the EV transition to be a "good idea" in the parent poster's words.

That said, regardless of how you power your vehicle, even in some of the most expensive power markets, overnight charging is cheaper than gas, both economically and environmentally.

In my experience physical letters are taken more seriously than ever. People receive so few of them it is a treat to even get a personal letter. Emails are often straightup ignored or lost in the fray and social media contacts are, at best, manned by an intern.

Most of the people I know are using social media less and less. Facebook is now only for "old people" and chat apps are becoming vastly more popular. Some of these chat apps have features of social media but are not at all in the same realm.

More things are meeting physically than before and I do not know of any meetings that are only organized on social media. Only one person complains that I am not on Facebook and that is because they are the ones always starting Facebook groups and meetings exclusive to Facebook. I still find out about all of these events when someone calls, texts, or sends me a message in a chat app. Most people use communication that is cross platform.
