>>>do you mind if there were simply no big budget movies or TV shows to ever be centered around black American characters, or portray black American culture in any way?

I think those are strange questions, because they aren't the situation we have in America. We have plenty of entertainment content focused on the black experience. Friday franchise, Shaft franchise, Undercover Brother, Black Dynamite, all those terrible Tyler Perry movies, even some of the classic blaxploitation films such as Coffy (Pam Grier in her prime, 1973) are solid entertainment. So I wouldn't prefer that this stuff not exist.

>>>Do you feel it's okay to have a large ethnic population and continue to exclusively produce content with only white people and historically white culture in them?

Why deprive all the non-white people of their agency? If a non-white culture wants content that better communicates their lived experience, they should produce it themselves. Japan does it. India does it. Those cultures rightly recognize that they don't need some goofy Americans with gender studies degrees to write their stories for them. Stop outsourcing your culture to people who hate you ( https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rt9MKUsKqHk ).

The amazing thing we are seeing lately is the decentralization of content production; people are realizing that they don't have to rely on the weirdos in Hollywood to produce culture for them.

This means the content created by independents needs to stand on its own merits though, it can't coast to success on established star power or well-refined CGI content mills: it needs genuinely good storytelling, compelling characters, innovative but affordable visuals, etc.... And this is where a TON of the current-generation BIPOC/LGBT/whatever content falls flat on its face: it fucking sucks. You have mediocre creators trying to separate the buying public from their money by brow-beating people with "if you don't buy my product you're a racist!". The backlash to such tactics was predictable and IMO well-deserved.

"Router" is a bit of a misnomer, because most products are package deals with routing features and access point features built into a single unit, but there is no recognized word for a "Happy Meal" and the equivalent to "hamburger" is used. The word for "fries" is access point.
This is pretty good!

I think a better model could be considered. One that ends in acceptance but in which the other coping strategies happen in parallel.
I have done that book during an eye test - or at least a similar one. I could read the numbers on maybe the first five pages, then nothing... Optician flipped to the last 4-5 pages and asked me to try again, I could read those numbers! :-(

I would describe myself as a sort of green/brown colour blind - at least I know which colours cause me issues.
>the possibility they will be restricted further

It is true for all licenses, for example, it is possible to keep old code available under old permissive license but release all new code under a more restricted license.

None is safe! :)
Yeah, I was going to say something similar. But ORMs get blamed for obscuring what's going on, to the point that a developer may end up doing some sort of inefficient 1-to-n lookup that would've indeed been much better off as a SQL JOIN.

I use JPA/Hibernate professionally, as a decision maker, but I don't think I'm in either camp entirely. ORMs aren't a magic wand, but they do help you standardize the boilerplate that you'd end up with one way or the other, in most cases.
In France everyone I know has to confirm by SMS or by otp from the bank app everytime a credit card is used online.
What about situations with overzealous moderators who disappear messages and people they don't like?
Depends. If they're reviewing it without watching it, then I'm fine with their "opinion" being filtered. We don't need to amplify twitter outrage.
Well I have good news for you: the next time you’re feeling that ineffable fondness for upstate New York at a point of sale machine, remember that 12345 is a real zip code from Schenectady.
So basically all a line of fiber switches in the middle of the house and then cat cable to the end consumer wall box?

hmm I did play with the thought of a PCIE fiber cards for the tower, they are expensive but it seems like its the only thing that will for sure work with the least power consumption.

Thanks!
The ambiguity of referring to both the undesired code behaviors and the tickets tracking those issues as "the bugs" is giving me PTSD, too.
This isn’t written for you. It’s for investors and middle managers internally.
Actually I am thinking of the EMDrive thing now. Would that be possible?
I wonder if pitot tube input is a thing, yet, for inertial-platform controllers. Most you can buy were designed for quadcopters.

It is astonishing to me how you can run fantastically good Free Software control software on them all, interchangeably.
Using transit, walking, or cycling is promoting 'other policies that have an outsized impact beyond shallow lifestyle choices' because these modes all hage network effects. It becomes vastly easier for city planners to override idiotic traffic engineers with once a comparatively tiny threshold of people are using them. There is also a network effect in knowledge and experience. If you learn all the safe byways and tracks then it becomes immensely easier for anyone nearby who knows you to start walking, if twenty of you in an area start cycling then your local mechanic might be afford to stay in business and run an outreach event.
Isn't the whole point of QC that a classical computer needs to do 2^64th calculations to try 64 bits of data in a function BUT a QC just needs 64 QBits, because each Qbit can be both 0 and 1 simultaneously? This effectively turns a time problem (2^64th operations) into a memory one (64 qbits and 1 operation over all of them, maybe repeat 10 times for error detection).

That was my first instinct, to look what she had done/write before.

I have to admit, being anti-woke myself (not American), that this article caught my eye:

Not the kind of person I would expect to be in charge of Signal, TBH.
It's pretty easy to detect the blatent cheaters who just copy moves from the top engines: you just run the engines on the game and compare the moves between the player and engine: a close enough match is certainly cheating. More sophisticated cheaters who actually know the game well themselves are harder to catch.
You would think so, but no. The correction is only to ensure the resultant measured qubit is correct.

Grover's algorithm apparently relies on very small phase angles iterated very many times, which is beyond the capabilities of current forms of quantum error correction.
You could also make the OpenWRT router connect trough your phone’s hotspot feature temporarily, while you set up your primary connection. Three clicks in the GUI is all that’s needed to join a wireless network for WAN connectivity.
I think it's a non-problem TBH. You can use process groups (yes like shells do). Alternatively you can track all child process ids and kill them all one by one explicitly and do that recursively in your process tree. Each sub-process in the tree that starts child processes is expected to do also this reliably.
They had a policy of freezing energy prices at 2013 prices, in 2013. This limit was removed after 9 years, in the first of September of this year. Since then, prices increased tenfold, so households are receiving shock bills. On average hungarians lived their lives incredibly wasteful, leaving lights on all the time, because it was dirt cheap. They never invested anything in renewables, because it didn't matter. They thought they were smarter than everyone else, but it eventually caught up to them.
I remember literally all my friends 'back home' outright mocking me how much more I spend on electricity. Their only trump card was always, "yeah but life here is so cheap!"
This winter I can guarantee you we will see people burn their furniture and household trash to stay warm.
As to what they should be doing, well, I'm not an energy policy specialist, but every other country in Europe is able to solve this situation without chopping down their protected forests, so there must be some other ways.
Very, very, very.

thanks for the tip of the Solarflare 7000-series cards, they seem to be super cheap on ebay and do exactly what I want!

Now i need to solve the hot and noisy part :D
Amazingly, not. These things are very sturdy.
My OpenWRT router takes 10s to reboot. Compared to 5-10min ISP router.
SecureCode / Verified By Visa / 3DSecure can cause huge crashes in conversion rates. This is old data, but at one point it was a 10-12% drop in sales:

https://www.practicalecommerce.com/Are-Verified-by-Visa-and-...

Visa / MC require you to keep your fraud rates under 1-2% anyway, so 12% is an enormous hit to only slightly improve your fraud rates.
> Oceans have been terribly overfished, but people need to eat

"but"? That's a non-sequitur. If we run out of fish there's no fish to eat.
I'm reasonably friendly with office cleaners at buildings where I have clients/etc (it's a way to practice my Spanish, plus I'm often there at odd hours, and it's a good way to evaluate some security threats.). Still, it's usually contracted out to outside companies, etc. (Same with security guards)

Actual janitors/facility maintenance people, on the other hand, are usually super interesting to talk to about maintenance/infrastructure issues, potential efficiency or other upgrades, etc.
For some people just being proficient and comfortable in the local language can be a huge advantage. But it can be very hard to get any kind of real world experience, especially in countries with a high proficiency in English.

Just like you I often stay late in the office to get into the zone, and I became friends with one of the janitors. We even started going to the gym together. I met his family. In just half a year his Norwegian improved so much that we went from trying to make conversations to actually discussing things. Then covid happened and everyones lives got turned upside down.
> My support for encryption and private communications has been consistent and unwavering

So tell me about that support. I use signal for security. That is priority number one. This is the only statement in the message that explicitly mentions any support for security. Most of the rest of the message in fact focuses on aspects other than security.

She is very good at saying thing's that have no substance. For example, "So I bring a clear understanding of the environment shaped by the dominant tech business model, and of what it takes to build tech that rejects this model", is not explicitly stating she rejects that model, just that she is familiar with it. The message is full of implied, not explicit statements of principle.

I am a little disheartened. This message serves to make me pay more attention.
That's what we are currently doing. It's URL-safe but impossible to remember or type out so you need to copy the IDs around.
I used to scare of it thinking why do I need it? everytime I delete sth it annoying me. I read blog post of GIthub not using FK key, and try to convince myself that FK isn't worth it.

One day, I decided let try this out. And turning out it wasy easiser than I think. When delete data just make sure to use cascade or ensure its associated data is deleted, which make sense.

Once I embrace it, FK now becomes my friend to enter data consistency, I cannot imagine how did I live without it before.
I find that this actually is a major cultural difference between America and Europe.

Well, employers are able to retrieve deleted Slack messages from anyone in the company if they want to. Be careful what you write on Slack, and don't think that just "deleting" it will make it disappear.
I get plenty for my needs on an Archer C7.
I can suggest an update. jdebp.eu is replaceable by jdebp.info. 17 million people voted to deprive me of a domain name some years ago. I'd suggest using jdebp.uk as an alternative, but Scottish Independence and the Northern Ireland border problem are real things and once bitten, twice shy and all that. (-:
I’ve always made a point of not just being respectful, but of actively cultivating relationships, with “lower-echelon” folks.

There’s personal reasons for this, which aren’t really relevant (for example, I am mostly self-taught, and have been treated like crap for most of my life by those with formal schooling), but I’ve often found these folks to be interesting, appreciative of the respect, great sources of information (when you are invisible, people say stuff around you), and, quite often, able to be very helpful.

At my previous company, I made friends with the service techs, down in the basement. They provided my department with thousands of dollars worth of utility kit (like cables and batteries), and often fixed my stuff, very quickly.
No. Fails to account for the conservation of momentum nor does provide an explanation for why it doesn't apply.
you raise a good point, maybe I am overthinking this entirely. I mean one can only stream so many 4k videos at a time and kubernetes only downloads x images in parralell

You can achieve quite the same effect by rubbing Vaseline on your lens. You can but don't.
You have a very good moral compass for perceived injustice. But theres nothing wrong with someone in the militairy doing push ups. There IS something wrong with questioning authority because you can see campuflaged soldiers, which was probaly the training other recruits were supposed to be doing but some smartass with good colorblind eyes ruined it for them.
Can't you disable DHCP on one of them and connect it physically to the other? Won't that make it work as a dumb AP, basically?
Absolutely "yes" on foreign key constraints.

There _is_ a scale, though. I have worked in enterprises where the database is the "contract" and where the business logic is implemented in the database, with triggers and all sorts of constraints and what not, in addition to foreign key constraints. But I now mostly work in service- or micro-service-oriented places where the "contract" is a REST(-ish) API, business logic is implemented in Java, and the database is exclusively owned by that one code-base, where not all business logic is replicated from the Java code into the database (still foreign keys, though!)
But the issue here isn't just the actions of individuals - without a community like Kiwifarms to coordinate and plan these attacks then these individuals might not have the motivation or organisation to do them. While I don't think Cloudflare has full responsibility over everyone they do business with, I also think they have a moral imperative to intervene when one of their customers is using their service to coordinate attacks on someone. And remember, that person is being attacked for their perfectly reasonable free speech.

As far as being able to read the posts and piece it together yourself, you can probably find something on the Wayback machine if you want to. Cloudflare's action was about preventing activity on those threads (i.e. planning/instigating further attacks), not to completely censor the contents.

My bad, I missed you were talking about on prem. Genuine question though (I'm just an average salaried dev), what are the advantages of on prem in this case? It looks like it's just costlier, will require more maintenance work, but the end you're still hostage of that same proprietary software.
Completely agree. These articles seem at odds with how Van Gogh described colour in his letters:

> I am crazy about two colors: carmine and cobalt. Cobalt is a divine color and there is nothing so beautiful for creating atmosphere. Carmine is as warm and lively as wine… the same with emerald green.

> The Mediterranean has the color of mackerel, changeable I mean. You don’t always know if it is green or violet, you can’t even say it’s blue, because the next moment the changing reflection has taken on a tint of rose or gray.
I meant cooking. You wrote that Fahrenheit has "marginal advantage" in cooking, I responded that unnecessary precision is a disadvantage if anything.

As for body temperature the rule of thumb as I know it is sth like this:

36 - fine
36.6 - the theoretical perfect temperature (but it's a lie [1])
37 - observe
38 - go see doctor (but no rush)
39 and higher - go see doctor immediately

These also depend on where you measure the temperature, mostly people measure in armpits here, if you do oral or rectal then they will differ. Remote measuring on your forehead is almost useless.

As for "requires medicine" - I don't remember having to make that decision, if I had 38+ C fever I just went to a doctor anyway.

[1] the actual perfect temperature changes by almost 0.5 C between people, time of day, time of month (for women) and other factors (measurement error). If you used thermal method of anticonception you'll know how variable it really is.
> as per the Jevons paradox

You don't start eating 50kg a day if you become vegetarian, and you don't spend 30 hours a day travelling if you do it by train. Yes, universally switching from cars to any other form of transport would save people 1-3 hours a day to do other things, but if they spend that time doing anything other than sitting in a car it's a win.

You also don't get to use "what if noone did that" as a counter argument for something helping if everybody did it.

If everyone insulated their home properly, got rid of their cars, stopped eating beef, and cut the remaining animal proteins by half we'd be pretty close to net zero right now.
Granted, I accept that. I should have been more succinct.

Let me give you an example (and it's very common, this is but only one instance). The BBC sells/syndicates programs of its health guru Dr Michael Mosley across the globe including here in Australia where I am at present. Regularly, these UK-based programs discuss obesity and weight.

Well, these days, the problem is that no one here knows what pounds are let alone stones and ounces except for a few like me who remember the pre-metric days before the 1970s.

Same goes with TV shows from the UK and the US that mention temperature in Fahrenheit degrees. If you asked the typical person here what 20°C was in Fahrenheit they wouldn't have a clue that it's 68°F.

...And if you were to ask them the difference between an Imperial gallon and a US one, you'd get blank stares to the effect 'what's a gallon and why are there two types?'. Then neither would the majority of those in the UK and US know the fact or that a US 55-gallon oil drum is essentially equivalent to a 44-gallon (Imperial) one. Right, the US has even screwed up the Imperial system.

Moreover, there's an arrogance from those two countries about this. For instance, Mosley's programs are supposedly made to promulgate health and here they're largely deprecated when the local audience cannot put a measure on what he's talking about.

That arrogance is palpable, the BBC doesn't even bother to subtitle the programs with the equivalent amounts in kg or Centigrade and such. And why doesn't Mosley make an effort to mention the matter in his programs? After all, he's been here enough times and even made medical programs here to be fully cognizant of the problem on this side of the planet.

Check out all of those phones with SD card slots these days. It's going the way of the headphone jack.
Rust also has checked operations (i.e., checked_add/sub/mul/etc. that return None when there's an over/underflow). You use wrapped operations when that's what's supposed to happen, checked operations when that's what's supposed to happen, debug builds to assert check all operations, and release builds to skip checks anywhere they're not explicit.
> Hikaru is ~immediately able to see that the position is (significantly) losing for white.

Hikaru could have followed the game with an automatic engine evaluation, that would make it 'slightly' easier for him to '~immediately' evaluate the position with better precision.

You are comparing a tired guy answering the questions on the spot to a person who could have had all the computer help in the world (and they do when they are following live matches).
That's the positive, positive outlook, yeah.

Negative, positive outlook is that it is a disinformation campaign so one may maintain the lead in a particular trajectory of technical dominance. Whilst doing so, as an extra game theoretic safety precaution which also amplifies the disinformation campaign is to fund any research in the direction of the disinformation campaign as both a distraction and 'impossibility canary.'

Quite... deliciously deceptive.
It sounds nice, but this will make for very boring journals with 90% negative results due to problems with the methodology.

Here an example of a typical project, where researchers are interested in the role of gene X in blood vessel formation in cancer, which could make it a good target for a cancer treatment. They want to knock the gene out and measure the blood vessel formation in an in vitro model.

Publication 1.

- We attempted to knock this gene out in this cell line, but due to an infection the cell line died. The installation was sterilized, the stored master cell bank was unfrozen, and we updated our sterilization protocols.

Publication 2.

- We attempted to knock this gene out in this cell line, but sequencing showed that there were off-target effects introduced. Reagents should be changed to be more specific.

Publication 3.

- The gene was succesfully knocked, but we found that a homologous gene appeared to activate the same pathway. The homologous gene should be knocked out as well to study the function of the gene.

Publication 4.

- The gene was successfully knocked out by disabling the gene and its homologue. The assay we used to study blood vessel formation was flawed. Due to insufficient oxygen supply, the positive and negative controls for blood vessel formation did not grow. New experiments should increase oxygen flow.

Publication 5.

- We successfully studied the function of the gene and found that it does not impact blood vessel formation in cell line x.

This is how the majority of research projects end up.

However, other researchers will be looking for a biological target to treat cancer X, and the information obtained by this series of experiments is not interesting. This is just one out of 99% of 30,000 genes that are not suitable treatment targets.

The conclusions are only interesting for researchers focused on gene x (and maybe its homologue), and potentially for researchers developing methodology. Questions answered were different than the original ones posed.
