It's extra confusing because, even before the sabotage, people had opposite opinions on the strategic significance of the pipelines. So the pipeline being damaged can be interpreted in opposite ways.

Did Russia have Germany begging for gas and ready to do anything to have them 'fix' the thing they were pretending was broken to make them suffer without their gas?

Was the West foolishly refusing to buy cheap energy that Russia was happy to supply?

Was the west taking the recent war and Russia mucking around with the gas supply as a signal to accelerate their renewable transition and end all relience on Russian gas?

Were the western voters angry, who were they angry at, what would they do as a result?

If you can't agree on the above you'll not agree about who benefits from this either.

You can achieve 100% engine correlation pretty easily. It just requires an unworthy opponent and we're talking very weak. Which engine is evaluating even matters, stockfish might say 100% but leela might say 95% because it saw some odd deep computer line you didn't play.

For a super gm to achieve 100% engine against another supergm? That's really telling there was an engine involved, in fact the same engine.

Very interesting comment, with mathematical analysis + simple explanation, ty!
Work stuff, but in an R&D environment where nothing goes into large scale production. If something threatens to be useful, it gets handed over to the dev team. The devs are actually very good engineers, but they do use the traditional methods. Moving across platforms is a headache -- perhaps the biggest problem is that the contract shops also have their own chosen platforms, so it's hard to outsource even minor work when a little bit of extra capacity is needed. Every platform is an island.
"Most popular" and "too radical" are kinda contradictory here. If she was "too radical", she wasn't popular, at least as a PM candidate.

Then there is also the fact that it is probably the case that for every one of these big budget videos that don't make money he has several smaller ones that do make money. The big ones bring in the audience and the small ones bring in the money.

They aren't justifying russian behavior by saying "you are worst" though. Your comment was pure speculation, so there is nothing to even justify. When we are speculating about motives or potential "suspects", it is absolutely relevant to the discussion to... talk about them?

So that's not what whataboutism is and it's ridiculous how much of an overused thought terminating cliché it has become.

I’m not sure that aspect of his personality makes it any better. Think of any horrible corporate behavior that causes human suffering and imagine a CEO who genuinely, honestly says “I’m just obsessively driven to make may customers happy. I donate every last penny to charity”

That doesn’t really make the human suffering aspect any better.

(Side note: I want to be clear that I don’t think what Mr. Beast does can compare to the worst things that some corporations do, not at all. It’s just an apt comparison to explore the extent to which motives matter or not in things like this)

The air quotes around tortured are doing 100% of the work here. There may indeed be some nervousness associated with taking part in any sort of competition, but I think most people would stipulate that white collar adult professionals answering 15 multiple-choice questions in 30 minutes in a comfortable studio wearing clothes of their choice, preparing in a green room, given access to water and bathrooms is pretty low on the torture scale. Likewise, we don't typically consider, say, taking part in a poker tournament to be torture, or taking part in a 10K race or submitting something to an art contest.

There are, in fact, quiz shows that add torture elements. Rob Lowe hosts Mental Samurai, which is a quiz show where participants are put through physical disorientation[0]. This might be a closer parallel to what you are highlighting, but even still there are coherent and easily articulated ways in which this is not torture.

There are a great many reality programs that do actually involve a sort of physical depravation which is closer to torture. Big Brother and Survivor both involve not just physical challenges, but also punishments that are centered around depriving people of the sorts of creature comforts they are accustomed to in normal life. Even then you don't have torture, because again the vast majority of the experience involves being treated with comfort and dignity, the punishments that are small in scale and support systems in place to ensure they do not present real threat. So, for instance, you might have someone being awoken in the middle of the night as a part of a challenge, but they will be informed of that in advance, given additional time to sleep later, and the disruption will be minimal.

Mr. Beast's stuff has more in common with challenges like the Hands on a Hardbody challenge[1], where poor people go to a car dealership and have to touch a truck for an extended period of time to win the truck.[1] The contestant pool are mostly people who are quite poor, some of whom seem to be mentally ill, the willingness to do it for the prize almost surely implies they have inadequate access to transportation, and it's extremely undignified. But even this has hourly breaks.

It seems like a bit of feigned ignorance to respond to someone criticizing the Mr. Beast stuff by suggesting it is difficult or impossible to draw a coherent line in the sand, and then offering such a patently absurd example as something you think would have to be definitionally included. It comes off as playing language games rather than seriously engaging the substance of the criticism.

Applause! However, it's not always about "saving keystrokes"... it's about lowering accidental complexity and making code easier to reason about by requiring less cognitive load on the reader.

Another example: the lack of literals for collections in Java. Imagine this:

Map x = {"a": "A", "b": "B"}; // not Java

vs:

Map x = new java.util.HashMap();
x.put("a", "A");
x.put("b", "B");

The first case is more declarative, and thus easier to grasp.
In the second case you have to read, parse and "execute" line by line in your head... (Does ordering matter? Does line 3 depend on line 2?, etc).

When things like these compound, you end up with code-bases many times bigger and harder to grasp than in other languages.

Granted: you can write shitty code in any language, nothing will save you from that... But I think Java makes it harder to write simple and concise code, even to experienced coders.

Then there's also the "cultural" thing many already mentioned ("enterprise Java")... which is very real, but no JEP/JSR will fix that ;-).

Brian shows brilliance, even at "trivial" issues. I trust his judgement :-).
I've never watched his videos but I'm not willing to call them crap sight unseen.

> Installing CC immediately cripples your machine and it can’t ever be uninstalled.

Yeah, it sucks, I get why people don't like it, but I've also never had a machine "crippled" by CC.

> You can’t cancel your Adobe subscription without sacrificing your first born.

It's a nightmare to cancel a lot of subscriptions. The Amazon Prime cancelation process is hilariously obstructive.

> Fireworks was dead the moment they bought it.

Yeah, that was a shame. I used to like Fireworks. It also felt like a product without a good market fit to me though.

> PS always was shite for UIs.

It's called "photo"shop for a reason. I don't think they optimise Photoshop for UI design. It's absolutely great for photo editing.

> AI was good, but Sketch crushed it.

I guess there is where I don't have enough experience to comment. I still use AI, but my graphic design friends do seem to prefer Sketch these days.

> XD is a bad joke. Adobe is utterly hopeless at this. I can’t see Figma carrying its momentum for more than 5 years.

Fair enough. I guess I just don't see all Adobe software as terrible and I'd argue lot of it is pretty good or at least competitive with competitor products on the market. My main issue with them is the bloat. Unless you need several CC applications you're often better going with something else because of all the crap they'll install in addition to the one application you need.

I guess as an example here, 5 years ago I used to use Notepad++ to write JS, then I used Atom, now I use VSCode. Things change quickly in the tech. The fact that Adobe products fail really isn't all that surprising. Is there any software you used 15+ years ago that you still use today? I think the difference with Adobe is that people attach their brand to those product failures and say, well if `x` failed why won't `y`? But I don't think it's entirely Adobe's fault, it's more a result of them operating in a very competitive space where things are changing quickly.
You're a lovely bloke. I don't care about your mortgage.

Describe to me, in concrete terms, ideally using the names of the politicians you think might be involved, the voting demographics, the years and values, etc, how you think the US is going to make a start on paying down its debts in real terms.

We all know what is going to happen. They're taking in real resources, they're going to give a lot less back and pretend there is a meaningful difference between not paying off all the debt and defaulting on debt. Which there is not.

The answer to all of these is "it depends", and quite frankly has nothing to do with how people should be taxed. If you're making more money, you should be paying a higher proportion of your income in taxes. This isn't revolutionary.

Also, I love how you glossed over that the founders you idealize are largely already from privileged backgrounds that give them the opportunity to fail. The vast majority of people will never get that chance.

Static methods are a pain for unit testing though. I have started avoiding them for that reason alone. For stateless objects, you can always have a singleton and invoke all the methods on that object giving effectively static behavior without the baggage.
This is so odd to me because this isn't my experience with Youtube at all. I just opened the homepage and it's mostly content I subscribe to and music that I've listened to before (I use Youtube for listening to DJ sets/Live music a lot.) I scrolled for a while and didn't see any Mr. Beast videos recommended.

Maybe it's because I pay for Premium? I also don't use Youtube that much.

You can probably say the same for a lot of recently popular technologies, like React and Rust. They all have their uses but they don’t need to be shoehorned into every project.
It is getting increasingly easier to provide these essentials as time goes on, so why is it unimaginable that there might be a day when those are default, and not something that you need labour for?
That’s actually reverse causation - it’s not that we killed “everyone else”, it’s that everyone still alive became “us” after we gave up killing them and interbred with them instead. The British were going around genociding all over the place until pretty recently but now they’ve decided the Irish are human too.

A lot of living languages are based around insular communities. Clojure just fits a niche (people who want a general purpose LISP on the JVM), that's all. I can't be sure though since I am not a Clojure developer.
I tend to see caffeine as in the long run mostly be useful to let you choose when you're alert rather than increasing total amount of time I'm alert. That can be useful if you get into a good groove of taking caffeine at the right time relative to when you need/want to be alert, but only if you're also disciplined about not taking it all the time.
This paradoxical sentiment is something I'm familiar with. The establishment sucks and is broken and is holding humanity back, but the alternative is terrifying. I've always thought I would have been better off in a pre-digital age (or post-digital?), but at the same time, I love the digits. And you're right, there would be blood.
> [Clojure is] not easy to just pick up and start solving problems

> [Rust has] huge upside out of the box and easy to adopt

Probably this depends wildly on the person, but I found the opposite to be true.

I had bunch of languages under my belt before I learned Clojure, but none of them functional nor s-expressions, so Clojure was very different than the ones I knew. Took some while to get used to, but after a couple of months I was more efficient than I ever was in any other language.

On the other hand, Rust took longer time to be as efficient as other languages I knew, even though it was on the surface more similar to what I knew since before.

So for me personally, it was easier to become efficient with Clojure, even with 0 experience with lisps or the JVM, compared to Rust. I think it's mostly about the surface-area of what you can learn to become efficient. Once you understand s-expressions, there is not much to Clojure, besides memorizing various APIs, but that's easy. With Rust, there is so much syntax to remember, and other rules to follow, while in Clojure the syntax is really simple, so once you get it, you will never fight with what the right syntax is again.

No, it's not. In this case, abuse is about intent: DOS intends to cause distress, losses and denial of service to others. Use with third party apps without adds intends none of this: the intent is to use something else to access the service in an otherwise normal (to the user) way.

Arguably third-party apps that are scrapers are somewhere in between these two in acceptability, but that's a question of "are scrapers morally fine and should they be legally allowed", not a question of whether third party clients are to be allowed at all.

this approach, to me, feels even more childish and lacking in nuance than “human beings are born worthy of a happy peaceful safe life”

the “world” may not owe anyone anything, but do we as individuals, groups, tribes, governments, and a species owe each other some attempt at that?

how does this view extend into discussions about marginalized, disabled, the idea of social safety nets?
I've never regretted choosing the tools that were intended for hobbyists and kiddies. They laughed at me for using Python. Of course there are good reasons for choosing the grown-up tools, but also bad reasons, and the bad reasons translate directly into costs in time and effort, lack of adaptability, and so forth. These things are normalized by the structure of the organization, but remain painfully visible to the astute observer on the sidelines. And to the users.
I too am a runner (~100 mi/week when not tapering or recovering) and "normally" I limit my caffeine to a double espresso at 5:15am. I take that one to synchronize my sleeping and bowels. However, it's a little more complicated than that because I divide the year into three different major training blocks and what I do varies both by which major block I'm in as well as what I'm doing within that block.

As such, there are trainings where I use extra caffeine for a variety of different purposes, e.g. to get maximum speed to train my body to go faster, or for the mild analgesic effect to counter some discomfort from long distances. Depending on how much extra I take and when, I may have to take the attendant tiredness into account when planning the following day's activities, both physical (more training) and mental (programming).

I believe I benefit from my use of caffeine, but it's tricky. I log all the caffeine I take as well as all the calories, analgesics and alcohol in a text file (which I keep in a public repository in GitHub). I can then look back and try to figure out what's worked well in the past so I can do more of it as well as what has held me back.

I've been sleeping with exponentially-smoothed brown noise for years. I use a raspberry pi with its hardware random number generator because with pseudorandom numbers or compressed samples I hear all sorts of artifacts - no doubt at least partially psychological, but psychology matters when you're trying to get to sleep. Uncompressed samples are fine and can be looped without a gap, but that's less fun.

I'm currently looking at building an analogue circuit to generate this noise, because electronics is fun and because sampling thermal noise (which is brown) inside the rPi's hardware rng, having it massaged to white noise and then converting it back to brown noise (with a bit of pseudorandom mixed in as the rate isn't quite high enough) and back to analogue to go to a speaker all seems a bit daft.

Hey everyone!

My name is Jerome and I'm the Founder of ShopMe (www.getshopme.com.

Originally, ShopMe was an app that let you scan items in physical stores and it would tell you if you can find that item somewhere else more cheaply. After some feedback though, we found out that the biggest problem of our target users is managing their wishlists.

74% of people who buy online maintain some kind of wishlist to keep track of things that they want to buy but they end up creating too many lists across multiple sites. There's no easy way for them to consolidate it so they forget items and lose out on deals.

We (re)built ShopMe to address just that. You can create a universal wishlist - add individual items via product links or barcodes and even import WHOLE wishlists from most major ecommerce sites (just make sure they're public). Get price drop notifications and when you're ready to order, just put it in your ShopMe cart and order with one click (even with multiple items across different sites).

We were in private beta for a few months but we just launched on Product Hunt. If you're the type that has multiple wishlists, do try it out!
