> But legal frameworks don’t cover individual situations, they paint broad strokes over the human experience.

If that doesn't cohere with the questions individuals exploring the law actually have, maybe that isn't a good way for legal frameworks to be designed?
I wrote a comment of my own and scrolled through 700 comments before I found this response. The whole debate has seemed incomprehensible to me, for the 20 years that I've been aware of it.
They have a monopoly on political discourse. Why isn’t there an alternative? Network effect.
From experience.
A lot of people are debating if this post is legit. I can't make any definite statements, but an 87% response rate for any job application is extremely high.
This is the "if you were occupied by a foreign aggressor, it breaks the contiguity of government"-argument. Obviously, there is some truth to this argument; but, honestly, we'd need to address each constituent state in Europe to determine its factuality.
I am a voracious physical note taker when learning, personally. There's something about the physicality of it that helps it stay in my brain. I rarely have to read my notes, once I've written them. That's part if the reason I enjoy hard copies so much, I find scribbling in the margins can have much the same effect, if not as well. Just a small summation of the paragraph in scribble form, to cut through the jargon, of possible and underlining the actionable phraseology keeps it locked in =[
Great point. This is exactly why no one should use their native names in job applications.
Thanks; oddly didn’t even think to try looking for research with some variation of neologisms within it.
> Is it still racist? Or is it just unfair stereotyping?

Many stereotypes are based on reality. But just because X population is Y% more likely to do Z, doesn't make it fair to extrapolate this to individuals, and doesn't make it less racist.
Because people in the know have been saying it’s dead for a while. E.g.

It's possible that the costs of high turnover might motivate a company to make work conditions better, but it's also possible that the company just finds ways to adapt to high turnover.
These are always fun and informative. One of the cool options that a lot of people don't know about the "cd" command is the :

This takes you to the last directory you were in (not the same as cd .. which takes you one level up)
Pay the cancellation fee and learn from it, to read the terms and conditions before you buy.

Then in the future, depending on your needs, use alternative applications, like many of the excellent Affinity programs such as Affinity Photo (vs Adobe Photoshop), Affinity Designer (vs Adobe Illustrator), etc. that are an affordable one-time purchase. Likewise Luma Fusion video editor (on iPad) instead of Adobe Premiere Pro or Final Cut.
Yeah, it's content marketing. It's got all the stylistic tells:

- Giving more background than is appropriate to the subject (explaining what cloudflare is in an article about bypassing it)

- Lots of fluff about "what we're going to cover" like it's a poorly-written highschool essay

- Asking and answering questions rather than stating things: "Can Cloudflare be bypassed? Thankfully, the answer is yes!"

I'm not entirely sure what drives these things, but they seem to be very common in this sort of content marketing article. I'm guessing a lot of it is SEO-driven.

This particular article has more actual content than most, but still ultimately devolves into an ad, of course.
Most platform vendors have this in some form or the other. WebKit has far more here, for example: https://github.com/WebKit/WebKit/blob/main/Source/WebCore/pa.... These are cool and all for when you want software to keep working, but if you're the person writing these, the one thing you should absolutely make sure to do is reach out to the authors of the software you're working around to see if they are willing to fix their code. Most of the time they are! But I invariable see code go into the OS/browser/whatever and engineers bemoaning how they have to work super hard on backcompat, and I'm like…"ok, but when did you send us a bug?"
Pretty wildly different rate. I tend not to believe science reporter in three tweets though. Would like to see methods and peer review.
After years learning from e-books (the only physical book I owned was "The C Programming Language"), I decided to go back to physical books because I just can't look at an LCD screen that long. I have a Kindle I read fiction books on, and it's great, but for EPUBs, not PDFs.

I've only bought textbooks in the beginning, just to have something that can last months or years of study, but just bought a few related to programming languages. Sometimes I would rather not open my laptop or tablet (tons of distractions waiting to happen) just to revisit a few concepts or to do a cursory glance at a few pages.
I still buy physical books just not for technical stuff (for learning stacks, languages etc I do it by building and stackoverflow-ing and building my person collection of recipes). Once exception to this is theoretical stuff which I feel I get a lot out of from textbooks (eg the dragon book, Tanenbaum's X, Ben Pierce's books on type theory etc). Too bad text books are expensive as F though!

For non-tech stuff (fiction, leadership etc) I find lying down with a good physical book unbeatable for me.

Logically eReaders are supposed to be superior with not taking and bookmarking and all that but I just have not been able extract the same satisfaction from them sadly.

If you're wondering how much energy is consumed by your electronics, a base model kill-a-watt for about $30 will show you watts and cumulative watt-hours. It's a fantastic tool that pays for itself besides giving an eye-opening, interesting experience. You'd be surprised at the things in your house consuming electricity 24/7.

Almost everything in my house is either on power strip surge protectors or just unplugged.
I don't believe it. The change in response rate is far too large and in the opposite direction I would expect. It goes from "0 accept Mohammed" to "54% would accept a fellowship from Michael". I could not imagine a dumber result.
The reason I call it academic is this:

> The proposed congressional pay amendment was largely forgotten until 1982, when Gregory Watson, a 19-year-old sophomore at the University of Texas at Austin, wrote a paper for a government class in which he claimed that the amendment could still be ratified. He later launched a nationwide campaign to complete its ratification.[2][3]

Can recommend the receiver route, at least if you also want to have a decent speaker setup (even just 2.1 stereo+sub). Receiver firmware is more more minimal and no-nonsense, plus most receivers have physical remote buttons for all inputs which makes switching faster.

No need to guess, they give an example of the kind of thing they mean:

> “In the event that any payment or benefit by the Company (all such payments and benefits, including the payments and benefits under Section 3(a) hereof, being hereinafter referred to as the ‘Total Payments’), would be subject to excise tax, then the cash severance payments shall be reduced.”

"center-embedding" is the term they use to describe this, note the long interruption of the primary sentence due to the embedding. A suggested alternative which removes the embedding making the primary sentence easier to understand:

> “In the event that any payment or benefit by the Company would be subject to excise tax, then the cash severance payments shall be reduced. All payments and benefits by the Company shall hereinafter be referred to as the ‘Total Payments.’ This includes the payments and benefits under Section 3(a) hereof.”
That's exactly what I meant :).
Run a decentralized system akin to a modernized mailing list with a nice UI, where every person accessing the list gets to pick how their view of the list is filtered, choosing from competing filters or creating their own. Filters could be machine-based, competing human-moderator based, whatever.

The doomers and the stans can be talking right alongside each other and never see each other; effectively, the doomer 'site' only exists virtually, as a mutually visible consensus among a subset of the network.
I meant to add that Luma Fusion also runs on the M1/M2 Mac as well as iPad.

This is a very complicated proposal you've made but I think the main answer is, it isn't scalable for policymakers or even courts to consider everyone's individual situation a priori. It would cost too much money.

I just think of it as a node API more than anything. Having a comprehensive set of features/library/API for the node seems like it would unlock a lot of features we are seeing in large service mesh and large platform shops are turning to sidecars to solve.
The parasites-in-insects argument feels _so naive_ to me, unless the people making it are vegetarians.

Most every animal we eat for meat is host to many fearsome parasites, and most of the worst pandemics in history resulted from human/animal contact during domestication.

That is the baseline!
You are aware that GitLab is MIT licensed and self-hosting is a strongly supported use case, right? Maybe I misunderstood the "selling" verb there
The parent commenter said explicitly that Legal English¹ "builds up its own jargon and shibboleths". However, this type of change happens differently than how general English evolves. It might help to think of Legal English as a DSL.

eBooks. An annoying thing is price: I want to be able to read on my Linux laptop (without DRM, and without reading through some ridiculous Web site), but I'll see the book for less money in paper format than it is in legitimate ebook format.

I also buy a lot fewer books than I used to. Early in my career, I was a "books person", and would line my office/cubicle shelves with a large collection of books. Today, I can get a lot of information for free on the Web. When I go to buy a technical book now, it's because I have an important major need of info on a topic, and a particular book is known to be especially valuable collection/presentation for that.
Ages? I think it was about 2016 when people started credibly saying it’s over. So, that’s 8 years ago, which is about how long i think it took for the high end to trickle down to affordable. The graphics difference between a ps4 and a ps5 are… noticeable, but not shocking, and they were released in 2013 and 2020 respectively.
I have every single device plugged in to a switchable extension cord for this reason. No need to trust a manufacturer, not even a 1-5W consumption (times the number of devices).
This!! Most speakers/soundbars suck, and if you don't have a center channel in your sound system, voices will wash out with the background noise/music since the speaker (as in person speaking) is usually the focus of the shot and mostly audible in the center channel.

There's supposed to be sound engineers on every show/movie to make sure it sounds good but the gap lies between your audio system and the reference systems they use. A good analogy is the infamous Game of Thrones battle that was too dark. They edited that episode on reference grade monitors where you could see what was happening, but the average lower end tv and viewing environment couldn't translate the same black levels and details that the editor's had seen when they worked those scenes (they were also intemtionally edited to look dark and chaotic on the reference grade monitors*, which added to the problem)

That being said I still use cc with a lot of content. I think it would be less prevalent though if it were not for the gaping holes in most audio setups.
More than 50 EUR per year at the prices a lot of us contracted for before the war for 2022, to make things clearer.
>not his education history.

Provided that someone has actually read his educational history. It's more likely the reading has stopped at "From: Muhammad Abdullah". And I'm trying to find the likeliest explanation of the phenomenon other than the 'omnipresent racism' theory. Please don't accuse people of thought crimes without a sufficient basis.
Jesús is a common name in Spanish (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jesus_(name)). And what about Mary, the dude's mom?

Of all the criteria to evaluate someone by, "the label their parents gave them when they were born, which they had zero choice over" is pretty a silly one.

(edit: and more to the point, a lot of common English names tie back to conservative bible types, but it's just so commonplace we don't think twice about it... the same with the Mohammeds and Jesuses of their cultures, they only look foreign when they're in our context)
Does anyone know if it’s possible to run multiple instances of an app via systemd that all listen on the same port and it does some kind of round robin load balancing to the services?

I could introduce my own load balancer proxy like Envoy but I want to reduce complexity as much as possible for systemd to be a viable alternative to k8s.
Has your team considered using feature flags? For large changes that can span weeks of effort, being able to PR and get small portions in to main branch and then "flip the switch" at the end usually works out better for us than "okay our feature branch is done but now we have to catch it back up to everything that happened in the meantime from the past few weeks."
Given how important social eating is to you, I think you're lucky you have roommates that eat with you.

I've lived in many different places in shared housing most of my adult life so far, and everyone cooked and ate separately. Thinking back this is true in all the different places I lived - shared meals were exceptional special occasions. Even when everyone I lived with were my friends, each did their own thing.

There were places I visited or stayed a few weeks on travels where the household ate together, which was nice to see, but I've never lived with a group like that. It sounds like it could be nice.

when i was a kid in india we called it "running hand", and yeah, it was pretty similar to print letters only joined, except a few letters like "r", "s" and "z". https://byjus.com/worksheets/cursive-letter-a-to-z/ is pretty close to the variant i learnt.
Yep, I know there's no content.
I suppose this is a question of what do we value more? The independence of researchers to run their own show and hire who they want, or trying to make the academic playing field level for all?
Hard science, i.e. math and its applications, teach you how to think, reason, etc. Rote memorization stuff builds identity, whether you are aware of it or not. It almost doesn’t matter what you learn, what matters is that everyone around you knows the same stuff.

In between stuff is weird, it’s where people complain about ‘politicizing science’ and ‘being fed up with experts’, etc. It’s where the wavefront of known facts changes too quickly for any kind of mass education to catch up.
> An evaluated term can be evaluated again, yielding something different.

Yes, and a Mogensen-Scott encoding can be Mogensen-Scott-encoded again, requiring two rounds of decoding, and so on.

Multiple rounds of encoding and evaluation seem inescapable of you have the entanglement of homoiconicity.

The quote operator in Lisp is designed exactly right.

In mathematics there are literals like the number 3 or the set {}. These objects stand for themselves and are not understood as requiring any calculation: they just are.

Symbols like x do not stand for themselves. If you want to talk about x literally as the symbol object, it is inescapable that there is some quoting operator to indicate that the usual semantics of x denoting something else do not apply. (Oxford's A Dictionary of Computer Science has a definition of literal which acknowledges this very issue.)

Literals being constants, it means that when they are concretely implemented in a computer, in the best possible way, they do nothing other than trivially reproduce a canned value that already exists before the program starts.
Slightly off topic, but one thing that annoys me is most movies made in the last 15 years that end up showing smartphones and text messages or the actors typing on their phone and most of the time the text is too small, or the camera cuts too fast and I end up pausing/rewinding to check it again.

Very few movies actually put an overlay and show such conversations using legible text. If the messages are important for the plot, it would be great if the filmmakers took care of this aspect.

This is quite bad with many streaming shows.
I'm also thinking quite a lot about this.

TL;DR There are many pieces to our culture and capitalist economy that make this difficult, but somewhat surprisingly to me, also many legal hurdles to formalized democratic corporate structures.

I've taken a few steps to talk to lawyers and contact advocacy/support groups for worker-owned co-ops and things, and there are a number of surprising hurdles for this type of formalized corporate structure.

In particular, whether a member is considered an "employee", an "investor", an "owner", or some combination of the three differs in jurisdictions, often at the _county_ level, not just the state and country level (experience primarily in the US).

US law gives a massive number of very specific rights to investors, making it difficult to pull someone's ownership shares if they leave the organization in some jurisdictions. Additionally, the tax implications for individuals can be extremely complicated.

Talking to a lawyer, they said one of their clients had been working for ~10 years to hire someone across state lines and hasn't managed to do it yet because of the legal complexity (some kind of employee-owned construction company in Northern California that wants workers from Oregon I think).

For the time being, my own structure is on hold, but I'm thinking of simply formalizing the structure in the equivalent of an employee handbook and putting legal ownership into some kind of blind trust then paying members at a rate tied to net income without formally specifying that it's a dividend, but I have no idea how many laws that might be inadvertently breaking.

In any case, Mondragon is an interesting case study, as they are (to my knowledge) the largest worker-owned cooperative in existence at the moment, but workers outside of their home country (France, I believe?) are not able to participate in ownership and profit sharing for legal reasons.
Yes. Cuy, cuyes. Different names. Named "conejito de Indias" in Spanish, bunny of the Indies, stedda Guinea Pig. It's not from Guinea. It's not African. It couldn't use the n word without getting fired even if it did talk. They would get a genealogical (Guinea-logical) chart and say, uh, not African, fired.

And yeah it's more like a bunny than a true rodent. I would totally. Totally willing to eat them.

To the extent I can. Like the way I eat chicken, eat the solid contiguous meat parts, I can't skeletonize chicken like other Chileans can. Like it's incredible, nothing left but bones, like museum quality nothing left to rot, dude like if you fed the leftovers to pirañas all those fish would starve.

I imagine that a contract must be written for the malevolent reader. The opposite of generous. Striving not to communicate, but to preemptively win every possible argument. An airtight construction.

Quite different from a conversation. Well, an ideal conversation anyway. Internet conversations seem to be more combative every day.

A cartel that owns all the ETH and doesn't want to let anyone have any? That sort of behavior would quickly reduce the value of the cartel's ETH to zero, on account of it destroying the network. This seems about as likely as you building your own specialized ASIC hardware that could produce within even a order of magnitude of the hashing power per dollar spent that the main mining cartels enjoy.

This argument is straining so hard to find a way in which these two things are different but PoS and PoW are absolutely the same thing, just one of them is cheaper, more decentralized, and cleaner. PoW doesn't imply greater decentralization, in fact it implies the opposite. I can go build a $100 computer right now, load it up with 32 ETH, and begin validating transactions in minutes. I am on an even footing with every other participant investing a similar level of resources. If I want to mine some PoW BTC, for example, i first need the industry alliances to get the latest greatest mining ASICs (which are mostly not available, because the manufacturers are strongly incentivized to use them for themselves and a small group of allies) or I had to get a team of engineers to design one and contract a custom silicon foundry to produce one, wait a year or two, and then plug in my new miners with an enormous capital investment.

It sure seems like one of these is more decentralized, and I don't think it's the one you want it to be.
