Better at what? Invariably whoever imagined they are debunking it shows how little predictive value it has about behavior, proving only that they have no conception of what it is for.

People have often imagined they were debunking astrology by showing that sun signs have no predictive value, and completely missing that the signs are purely a randomization device: if they had any predictive value, they would be a failure.

I earned a ban for life on Facebook. A few years ago, I made an account with just my first name and two letters of last. Less than 24 hours later, I was banned, and they requested my ID. So I sent it to them. I was shocked when they got back to me with information that my last name isn’t the same as on the account, and they can’t verify it.

Now, if I want to register a new account with a new e-mail and phone number, I also need to show my ID and get banned immediately.

In 2012 my PayPal account was deleted after one of my clients reverted payment after getting source material. After contacting PayPal and telling them that I would go to court with that. After just seconds, I was signed out of an account, and it was gone. Nothing was associated with my e-mail address... :-)

In the end, most likely every company does something like that. Maybe not on such a scale, but...

Regards the interpreter aspect, that is dealt with by fixing some universal Turing machine - call it U - which runs all the programs considered, so that the program length of U becomes a constant which can either be factored out or reduced to insignificance by considering programs and strings with length much greater than U's.

It is still a fly in the theoretical ointment that the K complexity of a given specific string might differ under different choices of U, not least because programs that encode some string might find chunks of it inside a specific U, like a program which prints the BIOS signon of a particular firmware could be shorter when running on that firmware.

Regards the biological / sociological aspects you mention, I think the theoretical framework requires only the bare existence of some UTM with a finite size.

If it is really Universal, you could just run the program which produces human society on it until we reach the present, I guess :)

THANK YOU!

> keeps the community organized around shared goals (such as standardizing Python's packaging tooling)

Personally I felt some disconnect between "package manager for all" and the need for "standardizing Python's packaging tooling." Yes, communities should be welcoming and friendly to everyone, AND the community should have clear expectations for best practices that members should follow. E.g., is an experienced female developer more likely to give up on contributing because she couldn't find a local meetup, or because she didn't know whether to create pyproject.toml vs requirements.txt? In some sense, the bigger and more diverse the community, the greater the need for a clear, solid foundation. IDK if that's remotely clear; it's just a feeling I had going through some of those questions.
Excessive and unnecessary packaging (eg shrink-wrapped bananas) wastes magnitudes more material and energy than 12 booklets/year, including shipping.

Of course, if @noyesno doesn't read it than it wasteful anyway.
The sad truth is in any disputes Airbnb is usually on the host side, not on the guest side. Looks like in their business model sellers have far more leverage over the marketplace than buyers.
At that point I wonder when quadcopters or fixed-wing UAVs will be feasible to at least establish visual contact with the sender of an emergency signal and/or drop off a sat-phone for bidirectional contact - there have been model aircraft capable of crossing the Atlantic [1] after all, and modern quadcopters like the DJI Matrice have something like an hour of flight time and 80 km/h speed so these could carry emergency supplies as well, no matter the terrain.

Many "Python" packages include native code in some form either as bindings or to workaround Python being agonizingly slow. Which means you often need to call make, or cmake or some other build system anyway... unless you want to build wheels for every possible configuration a user might have (which is virtually impossible, considering every combination of OS, architecture, debug options, etc. you may want to support). Plus you need a build system to build the wheels anyway...
Where did I mention only sub 6GHz? With mmWave towers are comfortably pushing around 20gig. 4G (LTE) and 5G have similar bits/Hz loadings anyway.

And towers are getting closer together. You reduce transmit/receive power and place the towers closer, which results in similar coverage but less interference between cells (with reduced power output).
Since the goal is to capture the whole market, it'll be interesting to me if stuff like this gets regulated so that it's not allowed. Can you ban someone from having electricity? If they don't pay the bill or worse, but leaving a review on an external platform seems like too much.

I was an employee of HP then (still at HPE, a result of the split). I recall when these products came out and Carly was promoting it, Apple's market cap was around $6B and HP's was 10 times that at around $60B. Some of us were thinking it would be cool if Carly did a deal with Steve and buy Apple. I'm not sure if the culture clash would have worked. But within 10 years the stock numbers were reversed and we were not in so great a position being split up.

It's not because he knew better, but because he didn't like it. And frankly, who can blame him? The survival rate from pancreatic cancer is quite low, as is the median life expectancy. Moreover, he had the misfortune of getting a more aggressive variant. And the treatment is quite heavy.

On the other hand, basically every complicated bit of engineering on the PWR is due to the fact that it does have such a high volumetric power density. A PWR is basically a fancy (very fancy) pressure vessel which is cheap (in relative terms) and then parallel redundant cooling systems and containment buildings because dealing with such high power density is hard. Right after shutdown, the power density from decay heat is still 1.3MW/m3 and dealing with that decay heat in all currently conceived circumstances is where all the money goes.

That is kind of a self-fulfilling prophecy. Bikes used by normal people look a lot because of what the UCI is mandating. If e.g. recumbent bikes were an option in at least some competitions, they would be much more common place, the same applies for velomobiles.

Nevertheless, there are a lot of normal people driving recumbent bikes and velomobiles already. The road I live in is part of a bike route and I can see both driving here regularly (I also happen to own a recumbent bike :) )

Airbnb should understand this. If no one dares to give bad reviews, there won't be any way to filter out bad hosts, which make people in general have much worse experiences (not to mention attracting more bad hosts), which make people use AirBnb less.
citing that they don't want to tell abusers how they got caught

Oh they cite it, but it's all about cost savings. Customer service costs. By refusing to interact, a platform like airbnb saves into 7, likely 8 figures easily.

Abusers/scammers always, always know why they are banned. It doesn't help a bit to not-disclose. A google search will turn up the why of it too.

The real gain here is fiscal.

I'm beginning to think that the only response here is legislative. Make it illegal to cancel accounts without a full rendition as to why, and evidence to validate the same. Essentially, statements of "you broke the ToS" turn into "here's how you broke our ToS".

And most importantly, the ability to challenge the evidence.

To make it easy on small corps, maybe there should be a corp-size requirement. Lots of stuff (fiscal duties, for example) change over a certain size.

Sure there's plenty of upsides to eSims

1. You can have any number of eSims on your device and have two active simultaneously, such as one for a data and one for a calling. You can optimise your costs based on who is providing the better deal.

2. You can 'manually' switch out eSims or set up location based shortcuts to put in the correct eSim for you (the automation is useful for people who regularly cross a border.)

3. eSims can be loaded directly from an app, this is how the majority of eSims function - QR codes are just another means of loading an eSim without an app or when using a provider that doesn't support loading eSims without an active data plan.

4. Global eSim data plan providers are competitive. An example is TruPhone which I found cheaper than local alternatives. Local providers cash in on holidaymakers.

5. Purchasing a local calling plan requires ID such as a passport (regardless for eSim or physical sim cards), if just needing data however: global eSim-based data providers don't have this burden.

6. Switching physical sims can wear them down to become faulty (such as by touching their contacts them too much) - eSim can be sent digitally or scanned from a physical card. It's much faster to get a phone back on a network with eSims than it is physical sims.

The -real- downsides of eSims:

1. eSims are largely the domain of wealthier countries. Many African providers don't have local eSim offerings (but the global providers still function of course).

2. China is a notable hold out on eSims because data plans can be obtained without providing your ID to the government, there is a similar story with other countries that have tight filtering/control over their internet.

That is a very important feature – knowing whether an SOS went through is extremely important in a life-or-death situation (for making the decision of whether to best stay put or try to climb to better signal etc).

It's unnerving that the current situation in Europe seems to be spun as beyond our control and used to push an agenda when, IMHO it is wholly self-inflicted.

Germany decided to exit nuclear and actually mostly replaced it with Russian gas, and now they have cut themselves off of Russian gas without alternatives in place...

The UK has has had no coherent national energy policy to speak of for decades beyond a dogmatic "the market will sort itself out". The country has the potential to be near self-sufficient in gas, it has big wind power potential. Government repeatedly refused to fund new nuclear power plant using public money but now the subsidies the new government is expected to announce could have funded 6 nuclear power plants...

The list goes on.

The current situation was entirely avoidable, and no, we don't have to turn everything off and ration energy from now on "for the environment".

We can note than, in the meantime, the US have become of net energy exporter and are actually the largest gas exporter in the world, and are racking it in at the moment.
