Poor people in Europe already die of cold every winter. The UK especially has a lot of housing in bad condition. Before the pandemic I would regularly see retirement-aged people sitting in the local indoor shopping centre all day in winter.
I like to keep one of my personal laptops running Linux, but I won't be using one at work again soon unless I have the rights to pave and reinstall. While I'm more than willing to spend my evenings tinkering issues on my own laptop, I can't spend hours of work time debugging a graphics or audio issue that pops up.

Weird hill to die on with Apple. That's a 10 year old issue with an iPhone 4, said by a CEO that is long dead.

They gave everyone free bumpers, because sweaty fingers would close the antenna gaps. The statement was true, the gaps were placed where they were expected to least affect the grip.

What exactly would you expect in this case?

The messaging worked. If your iPhone 4 was having signal issue, consider readjusting your hand.

Apple sent out free cases to compensate for the issue.

This is not the nightmare scenario that non-iPhone users made it out to be. Apple haters, like any group of haters are a silly bunch.
Yeah they can tap every axon in your brain all the time.

Really, it's not about capability. It's about cost. 1984 was a huge win for the tortured on the balance sheet. They didn't produce anything and they cost millions! I guess then they had to write a book about why it's better to be a good little bitch if you get tortured. I should know, I have read it at least 3 times outside of false imprisonment, and who knows how many times it was read out loud to me under amnestic drugs. Like twice. Yeah twice. To delete it. LARP-ing 1984, basically, O'Brien says he's treating an insane man's sickness, it's psychiatry, in the book, and since it was read out loud--which is a confession--it was psychiatry in nonfiction.

This is meaningless. It sucks, first off, and second, it's expensive--machine learning requires constant tuning by people, in practice the same as flying a helicopter, always falling off to the side needing to be held upright. I have tried machine learning models in practice--literally just the example to see if I installed correctly--supposed to take 30 minutes I had to shut it off after 3 hours. Timeout, sorry.

And does this headline include absolutely anything actionable? It is a direct, material implication of torture. That is the desired message. Too long-didn't read? Torture.

Dude what the fuck do they want to understand the human brain for? The human brain? Is there only one? Whose human brain? Any psichiatrists experimenting on other psychiatrists? Your brain or my brain? Mark Zuckerberg's brain? OK maybe he did undergo experimentation, who knows. Maybe my objections are premature. But gross.

Further, the purpose of headlines like these is to get people to give up. You don't have to. There can be a miracle. I stood up to torture under amnestic drugs for 29 days, and then false imprisonment ongoing, out of very misplaced loyalty but they had all kinds of shit you don't know about, 2009, not that long ago, electrodes cameras injections, uh, I think morphine? Nah, you know what? No point in talking about this here. No point it telling no matter what pornographic shit they threaten you with you can always stand up to it. It's nothing that isn't in the Bible, why bother reading this? That's the manual, it's all there, well sort of they tell you you could break free any time if only you did this thing that is secretly impossible but they make look trivial, it's not magic, you can't let your food be stolen, you can't let your growth be stunted, you can't let your school lynch you, you need resources. Telling you you need none of these things is a ruse to steal them from you so you can't resist torture. They also erase all the on-ramps to different points of view.

Eh. No fucking respect for torture, absolutely none.

Introduction to Commodore 64 Basic and Why You Should Learn It
I've never had a rental car company charge me for days I didn't use. It's not like they can't turn the car around and rent it again immediately. Who do you rent from?
Many modern heat pumps are much better than what you remember. Some maintain their full rated BTU output to 17F, or in the extreme models, 0-5F. They usually output some percentage of full BTU at even lower temps.

The common Asian 'mini split' models also use variable fan speeds to maintain higher coil temps and have output air that is warm enough to avoid the 'luke warm' issue of heat pump coils on 'dumb' air handlers that blow full speed.

That said, for cold environments, a backup is often required to make up for the performance drop at very cold temps without massively oversizing the system. Hopefully, you have your oil furnace coupled to a heat pump or perhaps supplemental minisplit heads. That is the best of all worlds: the HPs can cover 80-90% of the load, only needing the oil for extremes. Oil is likely to hit 5 a gallon this year, like last, so it would suck to rely entirely on it.
The problem with Prop 46/47 is that it only went halfway in some ways (decriminalizing drugs, but not mandating rehab if you're using drugs in public) and too far in others (legalizing theft). You hear progressives talk about how European countries decriminalized drugs and have more permissive drug laws--but you can't sit in public in the Netherlands or Portugal or any of those countries. If you are using drugs in a public space, they put you in mandatory rehab and assign you a social worker. You are also not allowed to steal... My problem is the toxic combination of legalizing hard drugs and theft, and then compounding it with allowing camping in public AND no cash bail. There are no consequences any more. Not every criminal is Aladdin and just needs to be talked to... many of them are actually bad/dangerous people who need to be removed from the public for the safety of others. For example, there have been several men who grope and sexually assault and stalk women in SF that the cops do nothing about--I think I saw a thread the other day where over 70 women had said the same guy had assaulted them and SFPD had done nothing. This is absurd and should not be tolerated.

I think a missing piece if obviously Universal Healthcare and again--this is why I blame democrats for being incompetent and deceitful--they went through an entire pandemic where not even the left-most members of the party advocate for Universal Healthcare. Democrats legalize drugs and theft and camping in public spaces--but they do nothing about access to healthcare, raising wages, etc. The neoliberals and PMCs who took over the party have made it a right wing party--they abandoned actual leftist policies. Meanwhile, they feign support for banning stock trading then Obama neutered the Stock Act which allows Pelosi (and 80 or so other democrats and 100 or so republicans) to continue insider trading. Democrats are as much of a problem as republicans on all these issues.

>From what I have seen many social issues like this can be fixed with housing as well. More housing means cheaper housing (that you have to oay for, not free). Give everyone involved an incentive to contribute to society and become a healthy human being basically.

Housing first policies don't work. In SF and Seattle and Portland, a lot of the "homeless" are actually housed individuals in SROs or other public housing but since they don't have jobs they just hang out not the street and do drugs and steal. This is what I mean about democrats being incompetent. There should be an agreement we'll give you housing but you will lose it if you continue being a criminal.

>Specifically central valley though: they're about as tolerant to outsiders as rural texas from what I've seen

Hard disagree. There are a ton of first generation Mexican and other Central Americans there and lots of first/second/third generation Vietnamese and more frequently Indians/Pakistanis. I get the vibe from your comments you've only actually passed through these towns and not actually spent real time there.
It was literally designed to be a horrible game: it was originally a teaching tool for Georgist economics, attempting to illustrate that rent extraction made one player rich and everyone else broke. Then you're supposed to flip over the board and play "Prosperity", the alternative economic system in which all players prosper.

Is not eating meat for this reason any better than just only buying from farms that are free range and cruelty free - so you support humane farms.

The problem with vegetables is they have a lot of compounds that stop nutrient absorption. You do not absorb iron easily from vegetables. But a roaming animal that eats grass and vegetables digests them and makes their nutrients readily absorbable when you eat their muscle. I think we are more evolved to eat meat than plants honestly.

Do you think the plant wants to get ripped out of the ground, sliced up and eaten by you? Probably not. You're not any more noble than a meat eater.
> Also the amount of LPG redirected from India and Pakistan to Europe will have a huge effect on those countries.

India's buying the excess gas from Russia though, so they have access to a seller that Europe won't touch.
It sounds like you know... very little on the topic. My NAS requires no maintenance, it makes no sound while running, and costs maybe pennies to run.

Meanwhile, there hasn't been a cloud provider without massive reliability or data loss issues. My NAS has better uptime than Amazon, Microsoft, or Google.
I doubt that you've ever rented a car, given your insistence on this point.

>If the people who advocate addressing climate change actually believed this, they wouldn’t constantly be trying to tie it to other unpopular issues.

Unfortunately, those of us who do believe this are a small minority. That's why it gets tied to other issues: it's coalition-building and the dynamics of advocacy. That's also a big reason why my other favorite cause is election reform, because it can help climate-change targeted reform become less partisan.

>Based on my understanding of “the science” economic development in the third world will still leave those people better off even accounting for climate change impacts.

If we had had economic development to the degree we now think of as "normal" in the third world starting in the 1960s, we would be looking at a very different, less frightening situation. But something went wrong. Currently, and particularly considering the events of this year, we don't seem to have solved geopolitical instability in the general case. Hopefully, the third world keeps developing. I'd still like to have a plan B.

We Finally Know Why You Can't Watch 'Dogma' Anywhere
I agree with the author that applying systems dynamics to software teams and organizations might be too rigid and inevitably fails when you treat humans as static and unchangeable. I personally despise single metric optimization.

However there is value in applying systems dynamics to software teams and treating humans as probabilistic variables. And instead of maximazation, one can do expectation maximization i.e. finding the average outcome. Modelling such a system is hard and intutions play more of a role here because our brains are well suited to probabilistic thinking (to a degree for simple systems).

But I can see why leadership gurus don't prefer the probabilistic dynamics. Because it involves "luck" and asking leaders to do the optimal thing i.e. sticking to the expected maximum (average outcome) isn't sexy and doesn't lead to winners and losers. Instead, in a capitalistic system, all leaders are expected to engage in risky decision making and every once in a while one leader wins, standing on the shoulders of a good software development team which also happened to be on a hot streak that quarter, whereas other leaders who didn't win are blamed for the poor performance of their equally good software development teams who happened to be in a slump that quarter.
> the little tips that pop up every now with "Hey did you know you can do this?"

I don't think those have ever come up at the right time, usually only when I'm halwfway in the middle of an action, and not in the headspace for a tutorial or tip.

And that tiny little tooltip, that offers no screenshot or example gif isn't going to get me to learn.
> They intentionally slow down and disable perfectly fine devices that have a lot of life left in them

I’m not sure what you’re referring to by disable, but wasn’t the slowing down an effort to make devices continue to behave predictably with degraded batteries? Isn’t this a “green” feature?

(I’m not sure I actually believe this, but I do kinda feel like your list was just a laundry list of stock anti Apple complaints twisted to somehow relate to “green” issues)
I stood up a pair of QNAP NAS for both my parents and I, and encrypt-then-backup their photos/documents to my NAS, and vice-versa. RAID 5 or 6 keeps hardware failure at bay, and keeping them tucked away in our respective homes makes fire or flood irrelevent (for this).

QNAP or Asustor has standalone apps my parents can use as well. Without getting your parents involved, you could either pay for remote hosting for your off-site, or trade RAID space with a friend.
“make conscience of the idle rovings of our braines” and “enter… those darke closets of thy heart”

I've been battling a few addictions recently. None so severe that they impacted my health or relationships in any major way, and so I lived with these habits very functionally for most of my adult life.

It's incredible the kind of grip a habit can have on you. Despite how much I tried to change, that grip only grew tighter. It wasn't until I joined a 12 step program and met people who were like me that I started the process of unwinding. Making conscience every thought that led to my negative behaviors was the first step. The next giant hurdle was de-identifying with those thoughts and behaviors, which for me was probably the hardest part.

Probably the best tool for me right now is like the quote says, to just really examine your thoughts and honestly tell yourself why you're having the craving/urge. If you can really be honest about it and recognize your addiction is only going to make the situation worse, I find you can start to "dampen" the craving. It suddenly isn't as appealing.

It's not easy though, for every time I can successfully introspect and tell myself an honest, hard truth, there's 10 times I tell a self-lie and let myself believe it simply because to know otherwise would be too big a burden to bear in that moment

I didn't last long in the 12 step program, maybe it's not exactly for me. But a lot of what's talked about in this article is also part of 12 step: self-awareness, daily journaling and gratitude, spiritualizing others, having a community to go through the process with, etc. Even though I didn't continue with it, the few meetings I attended were honestly life changing and I highly recommend anyone who thinks they may have an addiction problem (pro tip: if you arent sure but a specific behavior came to mind, you probably do) to try one out. There's plenty for all kinds of addictions, turns out you're not alone
I figured Gericom was an off-brand until reading it here. A friend of mine in high school had a Gericom Hummer - desktop P4 chip with some insane heat pipes and a large fan, and a single desktop DIMM slot for memory. The bottom came off in two pieces: one for the mainboard, one for the "other stuff" like the hard drive and battery. I'd never seen anything quite like it.
Agreed. Also, the crude CI is almost crossing 1 and the width (and PR) seems to increase when controlling for other things. This may suggest that those other things may be of more significant interest than the main effect the authors are modeling.

I used to use a FitBit Ionic (GPS enabled watch) and now use a Garmin watch and fortunately it shows a more accurate and better exercise results. In terms of running I saw a difference of ~10-20% in the distance measured in some terrains. I have not precisely compared everything.

BTW the Fitbit Ionic GPS stopped working and now (if it didn't expire) I will go for the health (battery) recall: https://help.fitbit.com/en_US/ionic.htm and give them to another person. This will be the second replacement since this model stopped working after 1 yr of use and Fitbit sent me a new one.

Let's look at it from a different angle: climate change situation creates lots of massive business opportunities that are very appealing and actively being taken avantage of, as we speak. While we argue, oil and plastics people get richer and politic is flooded with oil money (our money, from filling our own tanks). Economic AND climate migrants (causes for migration are often intertwined and should be seen as single) are being taken advantage of instead of receiving help where they are, and lots of people are getting rich from that. Then, when sea level rising gets critical, 90% of Earth coastal population will need relocation, and that service will make others rich. These (and others) creates formidable opposing forces to any organized and collective up to bottom type adaptation, which can never be without general consent. Pandemic made sure of that by eroding most trust that remained toward the ruling class worldwide.

We actually live in a world monopolized by the _us against them_ mantra that has for the most part deliberately chosen free market individual solutions to widespread dangers that concern everyone. Because climate change vilain is the guy looking in the mirror and not recognizing himself, while blaming the wallpaper. Commonly political solutions failed in commies countries, and we have not figured out yet how to organized ourselves as a planet since then, other than through free money flow that ruins everything.

While the prevailing ideological landscape leaves us no hope, other than to organize ourselves and end up living in some Mad Max dystopian tyranny, we have to trust and hope for the better. Who knows, maybe we'll grab the olive branch before falling into the abyss.

Although it does benefit Europe, it also benefits the United States for Europe to finally turn away from Russia. Germany's prior willingness to engage with Russia may have been purposeful on Germany's part, but it was against the interests of the United States. The United States is not "bailing them out", but is instead making it economically possible for Europeans to align themselves with our own national security interests.

The alternative is for Europe to abandon the fight in Ukraine. This is something that the US taxpayer should be willing to pay to avoid.
> Netflix’s infrastructure is entirely in the cloud

This doesn’t sound accurate to me. What about their 400Gb/800Gb FreeBSD boxes serving up content? Surely those are in installed in Netflix managed collocation facilities? Unless the author is suggesting that any on-prem hardware is a ‘private’ cloud. :barf:
It really depends what you consider lost. Thousands of users (at least) have been permanently and eternally cut off from their Google data after some AI system decided to axe someone's access to their own account. The loss is significantly over a byte. Or 50 MB.
Lots of co-op games struggle with this; some address it by simply adding so many details and complications that no one individual could possible track and orchestrate everything (the one that comes to mind being "Spirit Island"). Some games instead use a strict limit on communication ("Hanabi", "Regicide"), though that may defeat the social element for some.

> Given the data design of even the most complex set of applications that all interact with the same data, you can almost always predict what business logic is supported by the set of applications.

How so? Every table, file, or other data structure added increases the possible of uses with factorial complexity (think of, e.g., the traveling salesman or other graph/network problems). Without seeing something else, e.g., the code, a flowchart, or other diagrams it is impossible to predict what the program actually does. One can guess at bits and pieces of it, but not more.

It’s like saying that given a table of numbers one can predict exactly what functions produced them.

I mean I grew up leftist, punk rocker, etc and all my formerly niche opinions are now in the mainstream. On the other hand, I also grew up Muslim and I can say that being a practicing Muslim right now can feel very counter- cultural. Dealing with constantly waves of anti- religious criticism from atheists(which for some reason liberals seem okay with, so I have to deal with this everywhere online), views that the government doesn't approve of in their current idea of what is acceptable, fighting to make me and my communities voice heard when neither party in power is really interested in listening to our complaints-- this all feels very rebellious to me as someone who grew up rebelling. I'm not even interested in rebelling anymore, but at this point the system does not even try to represent us.
