Talk about how media is produced. Every second is because someone made it so. None of it just happened.

Show them how it is done. How one can cut, edit and change the sound.

Ask who did it, for what reason, for which audience, to what end?

Equip them with the tools to question the things they see. Then they have the means to engage with marketing.

It’s a long road. There will be glitter and cheap plastic toys along the way.
That article states that obesity was a risk factor in 34% of deaths under 65. The US obesity rate is 42% (EDIT: 36%, 42% is the adult rate). I'm not sure how to interpret that.
I see your point and the appeal of pushing for toughness on the worst side with leniency on the lighter issues.

It just seems irrealistic to have basically a "don't be evil" policy on gov side while letting gorrilla size businesses roam free.

For instance we already have a very bad time dealing with VISA/Mastercard policies that straight dictate what businesses are allowed to thrive online. VISA/MC duopoly is not the gov, yet it has arguably more power on the online cultural landscape. And any gov making their life easier can have them implicitely return the favor in some way would be basically untraceable (the gov might not even need to ask for anything. VISA/MC would just apply changes in line with the gov.'s stated policies)

User surveillance is the same, you can't have unruled gigantic entities allowed to do whatever they want, with the gov limited to a small set. That chinese wall is just bound to leak.
This is the right take. Nikos vision is about polishing what’s already refinement, polishing what’s already there.
Don't forget the PSU isn't perfectly efficient; it's usually between 80 and 90 percent. So for safety, about 1100W (for the total of the DC power draws of the components fed by the PSU) is really the maximum for continuous draw, and as you pointed out, there's also monitors, sound, etc. A typical monitor now is probably 50W or so (which is actually really good compared to the CRT behemoths of yesteryear).

Yes. I've often wondered about how previous generations got certain things so wrong, but this is the first time I've been fully aware of a revolution taking place right under my nose and I feel mostly powerless to do anything about it.

Even if mining all of the lithium and copper weren't such a disastrously extractive and exploitative process, big personal steel boxes would still be an awful mode of transportation for most people. Our insistence on building infrastructure such that cars are the only truly viable method of getting around diminishes my enthusiasm about what is otherwise amazing technological progress.
This is a big win for Google, who has been fighting an EU ruling that said it used its Android mobile operating system to stymie rivals. The ruling was upheld by the European Court of Justice on Thursday.
Is that the same as the one shown in the article's spec diagram, or something different again?
That's a good point.
My daughter is in daycare so I could take her home anytime I want if I'm home.

If I (and my partner) had the opportunity to work less during weekdays and more in the weekends I'm still not sure we would do it.
There is something mental about it for me at least.

Besides she's a nurse, so she works every third weekend anyway. In that case weekends become really important for me.

These are the dreams that I have all the time as well. Usually the set up is: I dropped a class but it didn't go through in the system, I go all semester not attending said class thinking that I had dropped it, but then the last week of the semester comes and I realize that I am failing the class from missed assignments and tests, and the only way out is to ace a final I know nothing about so I can scrape by with a C.
Fatality rate is the wrong point. Fatality rate among specific groups is what matters. In effect young people are at virtually no risk of covid, there is no reason to lock down kids for 2 years. Experts and authorities are running an ongoing farce.
The demo seems kinda janky where you have to manually sync the config between Netris and Rancher. Is integration on the roadmap so vnets created in Netris are automatically synced to the orchestration system? Using pre-plumbed VLANs also seems to be skipping the hard part of setting them up in the first place.

You're right everyone should be forced to continue to do business with people openly stating that they believe in a value system you disagree with. Any sort of action in response to someone's beliefs beyond a firm "tut tut" is directly on the path to events like the holocaust
I believe it's someone else, but I don't think she's been explicit about the connection.

It might be a bit different across the community, but it's usually considered polite not to "dox" (however obvious in some cases) VTubers who have public personas under a different name. There are only so many Asahi developers though.
I'd treat the 3.5 from UCF, Maryland and UNC as roughly the same, but think MIT probably was slightly harder to achieve. Maybe UNC I'd view with a bit more suspicion since it's more likely that someone got by there due to one form of privilege or another, whereas the Central Florida student I can feel more confident they probably survived only by merit.

One funny aspect of the very phenomena that this article is about, is that it highlights how little difference where you go to school matters. Whether you go to "super prestigious Ivy league school" or "non-prestigious flyover country state school" you're probably using the exact same textbook, syllabus and have a professors who were classmates and peers at the same "prestigious" university.

Basically, the difference between a student at a midwestern public school and an Ivy league is about 99.999% how privileged they were in terms of either having rich, well-connected parents or matching a diversity criteria the school was seeking and at most, a 0.001% difference in merit.

Exactly this thing triggers me as well. If you have "Not now" option, give us "Not ever" option as well. Or have you ran out of buttons?

Same with "No, thanks" button on dialogs that are expected to be denied most of the time (plz subscribe to our newsletter). Sometimes I wish there would be a "No, f*ck off" button next to it, but I feel it's kinda the developers loss for not willing to collect sentiment feedback. Or just give me "No" button, but I am not thankful for being forced to dismiss your nagging.
I'll do you one better: every individual has total domain over their own data.
I'm just going to quote myself from a few hours ago:

> You don't always get to decide that. The data may be serialized in from JSON, loaded from a database, imported from some weird EDI system, etc. Maybe the initialization process is not so simple, and spread out all over the codebase (or even just dozens of constructors).

Real-world codebases (the ones out there running profitable businesses, built by programmers that have come and gone) are rarely so clean and pretty that you can say "well, you just should have initialized it properly in the first place!" To that, I offer you Mike Tyson's incredibly apt programming advice: "Everyone has a plan until they get punched in the mouth".

>>The issue at hand is whether or not you can spend unlimited amounts of money on that speech via a corporation. Individuals cannot spend unlimited money donating to political campaigns, for instance.

Corporations cannot donate to (federal) political campaigns, period. See https://www.fec.gov/help-candidates-and-committees/candidate...

Now, both individuals and corporations can donate to Super PACs an unlimited amount, yes. But corporations have no different limits than individuals. The whole point of so-called Super PACs is they're theoretically "Independent-expenditure-only political committees" and can't coordinate with candidates. Basically the "We have strong views about abortion" Super PAC can collect as much money as they want from anyone they want* and run as many ads as they want telling people which candidates share their view on abortion and which are monsters.

You may view this as vile and bad, and that's fair, but why should a group of people spending their money together (i.e. a corporation or union or whatever) have fewer rights than an individual spending their money alone?

*Foreign nationals maybe not included in this? Not sure.
This is what the arguments you are making sound like to me:

One single failure on an airplane can kill hundreds of people, even a single line of code could crash several planes. There are just thousands of accidents waiting to happen. Planes do not work. They have had a hundred years to make planes perfectly safe. Every year more and more people fly. It is a system designed to fail.

You're dodging their question. You don't have to agree with a number they picked at random, but is there any fatality rate where you would believe that the actions taken by the government in response to covid were justified?

This seemed off the me also. Reading through the paper quoted in this sentence makes it clear that the sentence is just wrong. From [1]:

"The team found that planets 10 times the mass of the Earth, with an atmosphere 100 to 1000 times thicker than Earth’s, may be the most favorable for storing life for billions of years. But to do this, they must orbit the star at a distance that the orbit of Mars occupies in the Solar System. At such a potentially safe distance, the original atmospheres can act as greenhouse gases, absorbing infrared radiation, providing the necessary heat and pressure that can support life in oceans of liquid water."

So the planet is not ejected from the system, just pushed out so that instead of an orbit of days it is as far away as Mars is to our sun (1.5 AU). Gell-Mann Amnesia comes into play here.

The thing I don't get is why are we so damn stuck on towers as the default form factor? It's pretty much masochism to mount a sensitive piece of 8 billon layer circuit board vertically and then hang a bunch of blocks of solid heat conducting metal to it from the side, held on only by a soldered on piece of plastic.

I run NextCloud on my computer and laptop, and just checked... no I can't "just copy/paste" from my phone to my computer, or at least if it can the interface is hidden to the point I can't figure it out. I'd have to scan the QR code, have it pop open my browser, select the url, long press to copy, navigate to the NextCloud app, create a text file, paste the url, save the file, open it on my computer, copy the URL, and paste it into my browser.

Admittedly, sending it via e-mail or something would cut out a couple of those steps (still a far cry from "just copy/paste"), and is what I do on those rare occasions I do need to take a URL from my phone to my laptop, but you know what's even easier? Just sitting down at the damn keyboard and typing in whatever.com/coolthing.

Why do I need two devices just to browse your damn website on a decent sized screen or buy your product?

The tricky thing is, this project's renderer is currently a queue of circles to draw to a canvas. It's under 100 lines of JavaScript. So any increase in complexity will require substantial changes, like abstracting over types of drawables.

> many on the left have been asking [to] give the government more power to regulate speech online

No one on the left wants the government to do this. What happens is that "many on the left" tend to yell loudly about stuff to the extent that people in power feel they need to moderate their own speech and actions. Virtually no one on the left wants "the government" to do this.

The left, in fact, is extremely dependent on its ability to exercise free speech rights to make this happen. Everyone you want to cite who got "cancelled"? They got cancelled because someone else exercised their first amendment right to a hissy fit. Literally no one is trying to censor you. They're just shouting louder (and, to some extent, better and more convincingly).

The sentence:

"If a super-Earth is ejected from its star system and has a dense atmosphere and watery surface, it could sustain life for tens of billions of years, far longer than life on Earth could persist before the sun dies."

is wrong according to the article it references in support. See this comment for details[1].

In retrospect, no. But reality was never so clear cut, especially contemporaneously. Lynchings of whites wasn't uncommon. The so-called "last lynching in California" was of two white murder suspects: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brooke_Hart#Lynching_of_Thurmo... The application of lynchings were, however, disproportionate, and this must have at least been apparent to anyone who cared to consider the question. According to Wikipedia, between 1883 and 1941, "3,265 were black, 1,082 were white." https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lynching_in_the_United_States

Accounts of lynchings also emphasize the treatment of black bodies as evidence of disdain. But even lynchings of white victims often involved mutilation and the taking of "souvenirs", as in the aforementioned lynching. Again, no doubt this was disproportionate, but even the most obvious sorts of discrimination aren't as "black & white" as popular narratives would have you believe. (NB: I'm not challenging the idea or existence of disdain regarding black bodies.)

I think these finer distinctions matter because they're fundamental to understanding the concept of systemic racism--arguably, there really is no other kind but systemic racism. To sell the idea of systemic racism, we tend to shape historical narratives to better fit how people conceive of racism. But taking that license can be counter-productive as it then makes it easier to refute or justify claims of racism, or the very notion of racism, particularly for those so inclined.
Might seem like odd questions, but is there a plan to handle the "too much data" case? and how protocol agnostic can this be? This seems really cool, and I can think of some strait forward uses for it ... but working on a satellite project where communications are 75% of the hassle, this sort of thing seems like it could be very useful...

If it can deal with all the "weird" (its very normal for space, just not used anywhere else) batched radio communication standards from the Consultative Committee for Space Data Systems (CCSDS) then intermittent communications aren't as big of a problem.

However it will also need to handle "old data that can be deleted client side". A satellite will generate a lot of data that it doesn't need to keep but will want to transfer to the ground and keep on the ground, telemetry and tracking metrics, system statuses etc. One way is to keep all this buffered on the satellite, and transmit to the ground, then you can throw it away, etc.. But having a synchronised store is a much simpler programming model, you push important data into the store and let it look after itself, and simple code is easier to make more reliable and reliability is key for anything in aerospace. However it can't result in the remote device being "full", it's a 100% non-starter. The client/remote end has to be able to throw away old/expired data while the central store is able to keep that data, without requiring awkward secondary systems polling the latest state on the ground side to save current data into a separate system to store historical data, that would just be shifting the complexity around.
I imagine in career depends much more on his peer-reviewed publications and teaching (almost certainly in that order) than on this blog post or one of his presumably many theories.

The wording if the Constitution is about making a law. But it has become accepted that it means the government shouldn't have a say in it. And you, as a free citizen, shouldn't want them to.
That’s all fine and good but the code exists already and even if I think its domain is an exceptionally good candidate for a DSL I can’t snap my fingers and make it morph into what I wish it was. And I can’t get there gradually without understanding what it is.

I’m well acquainted with its complexity but I need to articulate it coherently to justify changing any of it, not just to myself but to my team and stake holders. I’m not looking for a simple explanation. I’m looking forward to having tools help me navigate a very complicated explanation.

I also don’t understand the motivation here or upthread to splain the problem I’m solving away as some nihilistic unsolvable thing when I’m saying I see real prospects of this helping me. I mean, you’re welcome to whatever nihilism you see fit in your course of action but I personally don’t benefit from being told things I find potentially useful are not useful for me, actually.
Makes sense, and this is actually the first I've heard of ambisonics. From your description, it doesn't sound like the kind of thing there will ever be tons of content for, so not tons of demand either. But a small demo-scene-like thing can be neat too.

I didn’t say that a group of people should have different rights than individuals. I think we should view elections as a central component of our democracy. Allowing entities, either corporations or individuals, to spend exorbitant amounts of money undermines the very principle of democracy by making the votes of a wealthy few worth more than everyone else. “Vote” here being a figurative reference to electoral influence.

That sounds perfectly reasonable as long as the bill goes on to explicitly define in law exactly what is and is not age/developmentally appropriate. I'm going to guess that it does not and that the true point of the law is to criminalize something poorly defined so that it can be used to selectively attack anyone who covers those subjects no matter how they do it.

My personal opinion is once they start censoring, then they are responsible for everything on their site. I think it is ok to let people moderate. But once the company starts to censor then it implies they are ok with what they didn't censor. This is not what Facebook wants. They want to censor and not be responsible.

But Go can’t be used for all low level programming. Of course a GCed language is easier to read, it’s simpler at the cost of performance.

Rust complexity is more of a debate about low level programming below Go. Where only C/C++ and Rust exist. Can there be a simpler language in that space?
