> Resist going for "Clearly, Russia!". Just spitballing here, but why not a German opposition group? Norway? Poland? Any activist group opposed to EU dependence on Russia?

Why treat "Russia" as a unitary actor? By doing this, Putin takes away a major reason for deposing him - whoever takes over is not going to get those sweet, sweet Euro millions in return for stopping the invasion and withdrawing. It's a game-theoretic commitment device, on this view.

Likewise it's a mistake to treat Poland as unitary. It's likely that at least some people in Poland would like the West to commit to defending Ukraine, because if Ukraine falls, Poland suddenly borders the Russian empire. There is history between Poland and Russia.

And there are a bunch of Ukrainian refugees in Poland...they would also like the West to continue their support for Ukraine.

> Shit, why not Danish anarchists, for that matter?

Or Danish wind turbine manufacturers who want to force commitment to renewables?
Lol. Well, Crash Override also had a group of friends as his wingmen. One that included Matthew Lillard. Probably didn't hurt.

(also, for all the jokes we make about how (wonderfully) cheesy the depiction of tech in that film is, with all the smart homes these days I wonder if the hacked lighting at the ending would make more sense nowadays than back then)

(edit: also also, I recall reading somewhere that the creators of the film said they never tried to be fully accurate, they were going for "fairy tale about hacking subculture that communicates the vibe of the scene to non-nerds" and I while I was never part of it I would like to believe it succeeded pretty well in that regard)
You realize that that gas didn't evaporate but will be eventually sold to somebody else. Even if for lower prices. Russia doesn't have money issue right now, rather political/military one. The guy on top with his close circle has few hundreds billions stashed all around the world, he doesn't desperately need to get more immediately.

Your arguments are valid but what baffles me in this topic is why folks try so hard to find completely rational explanations for russian actions now. People with hurt egos do stupid things all the time. Look at the clusterf*k that is Ukraine, how they keep doing stupid things that hurt them on and on.
There are some services that are still singular endpoint you're right e.g SMS. But the goal is to address immediate need and expand on requirements beyond it. No one using SMS has asked for more yet.

Other things are more full fledged e.g a db service that provides a http interface on top of postgres, or the user service with email verification and the app service that does hosting on top of Google cloud run.
You forgot about all the other pipelines from Russia to Europe.
For those confused like me, EEUU is a Spanish contraction for the US.
Why not do the opposite and build homes out of soft wood, paper, and cloth. This should drastically lower the costs of construction, and it would place no imaginary illusions on the residents that their structures could survive a disaster. Therefore the residents would be inherently better equipped, both mentally and physically, to recover from the next disaster to destroy their homestead. Is it too much to ask people to adopt a more ephemeral, nomadic lifestyle in the face of changing conditions on the ground?
It wasn't Aubrey De Grey was it?

In any case I'm skeptical for the same reasons as the parent. Until we can do it to a mouse reliably, it's at least 20 years away.

The other thing that people miss is we have cures for a whole lot of things that people still die from in many parts of the world. If this technology was available, I don't see any encouraging precedent that it would become cost effective enough in any normal time horizon to be available to normies like the rest of us.
That was Ada in 1983. :)

History has shown time and time again that trickle down economics simply does not work for growing the economy. Austerity does nothing more than stagnate the economy by taking money out of it. I don't think it's an economic illiterate thing to say that people should have enough disposable income to spend on the economy. You want money moving quickly, not getting sucked up and kept stagnant in people's bank accounts.
Yeah, there was a device mentioned on HN recently, the GPD MicroPC, which is a palmtop with loads of ports (serial, RJ45, USB A and C, HDMI); it looks neat. I have no use for it but it's a neat gimmick: https://gpd.hk/gpdmicropc
>>because if Ukraine falls, Poland suddenly borders the Russian empire.

Poland already has a border with Russia. But yes, we would very much prefer not to make it an even bigger one.
For me, the fact it comes from the backreaction blog was enough background information. She is always going on about particle physics.
I didn't work with any offshore people. I knew a directional driller very well and visited him several times, and from there met a few welders as well while we worked on helping them install off-road suspensions onto their trucks. All had nice houses and sounded like they didn't have a care in the world. Very different from my silicon valley friends complaining about their high rent and housing costs.
Because it would be a direct attack on NATO.
Negligence as a term implies liability. But there's mostly no liability in software for some reason.
I think the reason they use investors is one specific reason. From an economists point of view corruption is like sludge in the gears- it slows things down. People need to do more due diligence, be more careful, and risk less when they don't have confidence in the integrity of the market, so it slows everything down. The remit of the SEC is to make sure there's integrity not because of some sense of fairness, but because they think the market works more efficiently when everyone is confident that it's not corrupt, and therefore this brings more economic benefits.
365x24=8,760 hours in a year, 15,000 is nearly 2 years 24/7, maybe you meant 1,500 that is roughly 2 years, 2 hours per day? 2x2x365=1,460? (or 1 year, 4 hours/day)
It's not a hobby project. The app will remain free as it is now.
But some extra features like push notification will require subscription (probably a few $ a year).
I think it's because this form factor can be 3D printed; smaller bezels and you need more specialist design and materials that can't easily be reproduced and need to be built in minimum size batches in factories.
Covid-19 vaccination and temporary increase in menstrual cycle length
Except that is not the case where many people who now wish to "detransition" claim neither them or their parents got a good explanation of the consequences of such surgical procedures or the medicine they'd be prescribed, from medical doctors, who guess what, are in it for the money.
What contractual obligations, specifically? What are the penalties for not meeting its "contractual obligations"? Are these penalties greater than the hundreds of billions of Euros that Europe would be prepared to pay were things back to normal?
Do note that all blood glucose meters get pretty inaccurate when it goes below about 4 mmol/l, depends a bit on the exact test used and varies wildly with environmental conditions. Consider it "low" from that point onward. The meter manufacturers will tell you it's always within the ISO bounds but that is under controlled conditions with new test strips accuracy goes out the window the lower you get and the less favorable the environment is.

From my personal experience with bolus is that it can vary wildly with injection site especially for slower working insulin, I used to get massive hypoglycemia from time to time with actrapid simply to injection site changes.
Before flex and grid CSS had most complex, least friendly and (probably) least powerful layout definition system compared to everything I knew. Creating unecessary elements just to trigger primitive CSS mechanisms was commonplace as was having >3 methods to do some primitive layout task (like centering) depending on where that task was needed. Tables were popular so long because you could do 80% of what CSS could do while knowing <10% of what was needed to do layout without them.

After flex and grid it is just most complex and least friendly. You still need to know all the gotchas if you work with legacy projects or with imported components, but at least there are some sane ways to do basic layout tasks.

For me still nothing beats Adobe Flex when it comes to layout. Without much experience I could easily create UI that looked and behaved good without any resizing problems (although as I remember mobile phones were never supported).
That's not entirely fair. I've been reading her blog for a long time.

She's basically opposed to maths in physics for the sake of beautiful maths (nature doesn't have to be beautiful in our eyes), and spending vast amounts on money on bigger particle accelerators when there is no particular theory to test.

She wants to see real progress in her field. This doesn't necessarily make her right, but she has valid viewpoints that somewhat threaten the status quo of particle physics.
Using mouse is both slower, and needs more mental process to do the same task. Especially if you need to switch repeatedly while doing something, you come up with a short-term muscle memory: use vscode, alt-tab to the other vscode, alt-tab-tab to chrome. Now you know the first alt-tab takes you to the most recent vscode, but two alt-tabs take you to the first one. I develop a vscode extension and do this routinely. On mac I need to either use the mouse, or switch to vscode, then use CMD+backtick to switch to the other. Both are much slower and a disruption to the flow state.

Apple for some reason avoids giving people too many options. Just one option: "threat windows of the same application independently" with a default of no would make everyone happy.
Cool tidbit! Makes a lot more sense now!

> Resist going for "Clearly, Russia!". Just spitballing here, but why not a German opposition group? Norway? Poland? Any activist group opposed to EU dependence on Russia? Shit, why not Danish anarchists, for that matter?

Realistically, it would have to have been a military operation. Causing explosions in the middle of the sea is rather difficult. And probably near impossible for your average terrorist group.

Personally, I suspect it's the US. It does have the earmarks of a Russia operation tho. It's just deniable in a weird way while they still get the credit for it.

However, what does Russia gain by reducing the dependency on Russian gas? Before they were trying to get Germany to open up Nordstream 2 since it's complete but now that's not possible. Gas prices go up but if you're ability to sell gas is limited that doesn't help much.

On the otherside are the US, who are well known for operating shady secret missions to affect geo politics in their favour. The fact it happened on the day another gas pipeline opens would make it seem like it's possible that someone wanted the other gas pipeline to become more popular and used instead.
A current generation cheap subnotebook would be useful, for when you want a complete system, not a Raspberry Pi with wires all over the place.

If it actually existed and didn't cost too much, it would be interesting.

If it's 3 years out and costs $2500, forget it.
It's a painful reminder that just installing a new government (or new leadership in any context) doesn't magically make all the power structures that existed before it go away.
? who else would've done it? Stop pretending. 'Maybe not russia??' is an exciting idea, but this is not a Tom Clancy novel and no such groups in Europe exists. Especially that would have the resources to carry out an attack like this.

The destruction of the pipeline happens simultaneous as Russia is in a direct conflict with Ukraine/Europe and is constantly flying drones at Norwegian oil platforms.
The world wide web, which came out of the LHC project, alone was worth perhaps millions of experiments.
Particle physics does not include that. There is no evidence that superconductivity requires any physics outside of the standard model.
You're going to have to define what you mean by that first, given there Python packaging landscape has changed quite a bit in the past few years.

i take their meaning to be that the conclusion to draw is that the united states is fascist because (among other things i'm sure) they ran a program a fascist government ran (before the fascist government even), rather than concluding that even non-fascist countries run these types of programs.
They didn't they got both. Nord Stream 2 has a leak too.
At least you were able to read it. The rest won't be able as it's censored now. I called you out to check some facts, even you won't be able to deny. But you're too scared to look at UN numbers on official UN websites that prove me right.

But you have been saved by your mods and can now enjoy an uninterrupted hegemony of opinion. As long as you keep to your internet shitholes, few challenging thoughts will ever reach you.
Pvp is utterly boring and feels so unresponsive - I think I also had a lag problem (as eve consists of 1 server only, in the us, afaik).

I remember reading devs being able to launch new "shards"/servers for great wars or crowded areas so they have multiple server support at least. I highly doubt it is a single server but I might be wrong

But nevertheless, the gameplay is designed in a way to compensate large amount of lags (like most MMOs, but I would guess even more so in EVE) so I am not sure how much lag would matter unless it is a major spike

I agree with your other points though. I heard "great wars" sucks for people that participated as well. They crawl server timescale down so it can handle that many concurrent players interacting with each other and laggy and chaotic as hell on top of that. They are probably only fun to read about
The Nord Stream sabotage is not? You know some of the explosions happened on NATO territory, right?
> including (as far as I know) francoists themselves

Are you referring to someone in particular?
You can make fast web apps and you can make slow native apps. Check out VSCode's older brother and be amazed by how unresponsive and glitchy is.
> When is the last time you used CSS? "How to center a div" has not been an issue with CSS for many, many years. Flexbox and now CSS Grid have overwhelming adoption and most layouts can be achieved with a few lines of CSS.

The html-apps-as-a-local-app (like electron-based stuff) became popular prior to "how to centre a div" was answered.

IOW, they became popular in spite of having shitty layouts specifications.
If you are on chrome, and you have two vscode windows, you need to use CMD-tab to switch to VsCode, then see which one you got, if it's not the one you wanted, use CMD+backtick to switch to the other.

Using the mouse is much much slower than the keyboard, especially if on both windows you have been using the keyboard.
OK, let's assume that is the case. Now the EU is very careful about the Norwegian pipeline, and surveillance of this pipeline dramatically increases to defend it from potential Russian sabotage.

What has Russia gained with this?
Practically, anyone with access to the Baltic Sea, boats, scuba equipment, underwater explosives could do it, but they couldn't do it undetected. This area is under surveillance from Sweden and Denmark.

If you want to do it undetected you need to do it completely underwater, including ingress and egress, and that absolutely limits the potential actors.
I like to think our gut biome is just a natural network of microbes that evolve together to operate this sack of flesh we occupy.

So us assuming we know best about what quantities of which microbes is good for us seems quite hard to believe for me.
aka superposition?
Even if they did we have no standardisation. I truly wish we had Android for Cloud. An open source operating system and framework that then let people publish software that worked seamlessly on it. I don't think docker and kubernetes went far enough.
I know. In our state we're very pro-nuclear and the local Green party basically ended itself over this issue. I used to think that's surely going to happen in Germany too - such a scientific, rational and pragmatic nation/state, right? But oh well, seems like economical pragmatism wins over ecology and health.

Just as a heads-up, people with type 1 often bristle at people using their experiences with type 2 to talk about type 1.

It’s incredibly common, but you should be aware (you actually might be!) that type 1 diabetes and type 2 diabetes are incredibly different diseases, having almost nothing to do with one another apart from that they’re related to blood glucose. Even insulin-dependent type 2 is a very different ballgame to type 1.

I’m definitely not implying a ranking here or devaluing your experience with a serious chronic illness.

Anyway, I’m thick skinned about this, so this isn’t really about me. I’m just trying to let you know that you could engender negative reactions by being unaware of this common “sore spot”.

EDIT: Sorry, I see you’ve addressed this in a different comment, so you’re aware. All good, I’ll leave this up as general advice to others.

I agree, pathlib is really powerful, and I can see myself using it for new developments.

May I then assume that Refurb is better suited to work on new code? To get back to open(), I don’t know if I would want to go through my company’s legacy code (which runs on Python 3.10) and start replacing battle-tested code everywhere. Same would go for tuple literals over lists in certain circumstances.

I think this will go really well with choosing an „acceptable“ subset of Python for your project, similar to how some companies choose a subset of C++ and then stick with that throughout a project.
In the end most people just deal with this by creating accounts for different contexts and that helps to proactively compartmentalize their lives. Often on different systems that are more appropriate to one context or another.

Trying to do it all under one account on one app always just makes you do much more work because you have to curate the lists, you have to make sure you're posting to the right context even though you see all the same stuff no matter which is active, etc.

Everyone thinks they want this but very few people are willing to put in the work to make it not suck.

And why should they? One Giant Social Network That Does Everything is the disaster state Facebook has been chasing for coming up on 20 years and it's been nothing but a mess, in some ways a literal detriment to society. Let that nightmare die.
A few years ago I was pounding the digital pavement and applying for jobs. I received a call from a place where I hadn't applied; they found me anyway. I set an appointment and followed their instructions which led me to a very unassuming back office - no signage out front, knock to request entrance.

I had my resume on my notebook in my backpack, but the first stop was filling out a short paper application. I was ushered in to see "the boss man" and I jotted a few notes on a memo pad while we chatted.

He presented the case to me and I sort of zoned out, thinking how unappealing this job seemed. He was also finding out how inexperienced I was for his purposes. The bulk of the interview was fairly awkward, but I was determined to show some honesty and candor. So as we wrapped up, I said something like "I think we both know that this job isn't for me. Thanks for your time." and I tore out my notes, handing them over so as to protect his privacy. He glanced at them and smiled because I'd made a note of the Star Wars action figures behind him.

It was a graceful exit from an unfortunate situation. I did land a job shortly after, with another firm where I hadn't applied, and I'm totally happy with it!
Just look up for the amount of deaths for medical malpractice in most developed countries.

Not all doctors and nurses are that technically good to justify that we don't keep a sensible amount of suspicion, or when receiving a diagnosis shouldn't look for a second, or even third opinion.
If you're saying that "hurt ego" is the motivation, OK, but there are many non-Russian beneficiaries from the action that do not rely on irrationality or weird 4D chess false-flag explanations.

Why not consider those first, in turn?
I think it was more about Germany being able to buy gas straight from Russia without having to pay fees to Poland/Ukraine/Belarus/whoever for transporting gas through their territory.

It was difficult to glean the perspective of the author, but the piece seemed to rely (at first) on understanding where the author comes from. Just a bit of feedback of structure.

I do agree with the general sentiment - crypto communities actively facing away from deep problems, are problematic, and the built in financialization (which is necessary to generate cost of attack in real blockchains - though hundreds of real blockchains are certainly not required) makes discerning FUD from criticism harder than it would be otherwise.
"Don't force someone who isn't into maths to take advanced algebra," is perfectly OK with me.

"Don't allow mathematically talented kids to take advanced algebra in the name of equity," is an attempt to re-create a classless society in school, and I hate the idea approximately as much as I hated my early years in late stage Czechoslovak Communist regime. Not least because there always is an elite class of ideological mandarins which makes itself exempt from the rules pushed on everyone else. We called it "the Nomenklatura" in the old Soviet Bloc: the list of privileged names. Once you are on it, you belong to modern nobility, the rest are peasants in better clothing.

Also, what do you think about overdiagnosis of ADHD and consequent overprescription of Ritalin in the US? Might there be other ulterior motives than just money?

In the 1970s factory jobs came with generous pensions that meant a worker could retire comfortably in their mid 50s. In the 1970s a a factory job allowed the worker to afford to own their own home, their own new car, and support a spouse and children on the one income earned from the factory. In the 1970s the cost of healthcare for the factory worker and his family was inconsequential. Factory workers and their families were not bankrupt or even severely taxed by the cost of hospital visits, let alone routine healthcare. Factory jobs in the United States in 2022 do not resemble factory jobs in the United States in the 1970s in any way. This is a ridiculous comparison for the NYT to make.
