Why is cock.li trolling but the CCC is serious business? Perhaps they were just giving him a wedgie for ironic reasons.

My point is here is that it's very easy to fall into a pattern of 'it's satire when I do it to you, but it's cancel culture* when you do it to me'. I don't think of (or even about) the cock.li admin as a fascist particularly, but I'd be very surprised if he wasn't fully aware that his domain is very popular with fascist trolls and used for quick and easy sockpuppet manufacture and has been for years. You could believe in the importance of making anonymous email widely accessible and keep doing that, without necessarily pandering to the worst of examples of the people who use your service.

* or whatever the equivalent moral outrage of the moment is.
Apparently, many people are so used to 24 fps that films shot at higher framerates are slightly unsettling (even if they don't realize why), and have even been, ironically, described as unnatural. I've noticed it myself; I watched a YouTube video recently that was at 60 fps and my attention kept going to the hands of the person talking as he waved them around. The motion was too fluid. Slightly distracting. I guess my brain is used to interpolating what it would have looked like from a blur at 24 fps, rather than actually seeing the fine details. Though I'm sure we'll get used to it soon enough.
I thought they closed up their Dutch branch after the firing, not after the court case:

"Less than a week after the plaintiff was fired, the Rijswijk branch of Chetu Inc. was deregistered from the Chamber of Commerce and shut down on 2 September, records show."

Seems fishy, but could an innocent explanation be that he was their only Dutch employee?
Unfortunately most digital video formats don’t actually store them this way, either because the editing software rounds it off incorrectly or because the format itself stores timestamps in decimals for some reason (Matroska).

I'm very sick and tired of the "What about the children?" mentality. The same excuse is used worldwide for censorship of movies and games, banning "dangerous" products, making anti-LGBT laws because "gay propaganda is making our kids gay", attacking couples because they kissed in public...

A child is their parents'/caretakers' responsibility. I shouldn't have to give away my freedoms just because of some negligent parents.
This is an interesting legal question, but in this case answer is entirely dependent on the terms of service agreement that you signed when you obtained the card, along with any applicable regulations.

In one or two decades this correlation (inflation with energy prices) will become history, as low and down-trending prices for solar PV, wind, batteries, and electrolyzed hydrogen mean we will have permanently cheap energy.

Perhaps TypeScript is a very clean example of the duplication phenomenon you mention in that article, because unlike in most languages, static types are completely erased during compilation. It’s literally a typecheck-time functional programming language bolted onto an existing dynamic runtime language. For some complex object manipulations, the cleanest thing to do is to write two independent recursive functions: a runtime one to compute the value, and a typelevel one to compute the resulting type.
Deception can lead to false confessions (people's memories are very malleable) or plea bargains (accept 2 years vs risking 15 years).
Let us test that theory.

Imagine that I went to a hospital and asked to get a copy of all the patients records. The contract I sign will say that no record should ever be viewed by a human, and if any human did read a record, patients would be identified by patient ID like 563758. In return patients would get services worth ~50 cent.

How many patients would consider this a fair trade?

In addition, drugs would get targeted advertisement, and the funds for advertisements would be raised through the profits of said drugs (ie, patients would be paying for it, by an average of $1 more per patient). Still, patients would get free services that costs the advertisement network ~50 cent per patient.
Interesting, thank you for your work, I might use it in a project.

Edit: looks like I need a date object specifically, so I will go with the timezone conversion method and convert back to timestamp
In the CS curricula I'm familiar with, the introductory algorithms and data structures class is usually a prerequisite to the core systems classes. In order to learn how computers really work, you must first be familiar with the key ideas of organizing and manipulating data. Designing algorithms and data structures for real computers is an advanced topic few students take, because they are more interested in software/systems/theory/ML.
It appears to me that free speech is being phased out and replaced with SafeSpeech. Its presented like this: "It is actually more free because safe spaces are where people are free-est to speak their minds; free from bullying, etc." fwiw, I find this trend abhorrent, but I can't stop it.
Have you considered starting a competitor to this company?
EV towing is likely is toughest use case for personal transportation, but it's worth noting Hoovie has the small battery Lightning and towed at well over 70 mph. Slowing down even a little would have resulted in a different experience since aerodynamic drag is the biggest range killer.

That's not to say the issues he raises are not real, they absolutely are. Towing with an EV is painful since most charging locations don't have pull-through stalls and the range hit with a trailer is no joke. ICE vehicles are so inefficient to begin with and refuelling so quick and simple people don't typically notice how big a hit towing is. Batteries just don't have much energy in the compared to fuel, so reducing the efficiency has very apparent impacts.
Beyond the irony, commenting on this thread here: OS/2 supports CORBA for distributing objects on different computers [1].

Hmm, that’s an interesting viewpoint. I guess there is a significant share of people that would otherwise commute by internal combustion vehicle.

For a true comparison you’d also have to take into account the transport mix (walking/transit/EV/ICE) and average distance travelled. Someone in Paris might be likely to commute by transit, but someone in northern Finland might be more likely to use a car.
Until studies are reproduced in places like Spain, we won't know if they could be even healthier. And if studies cannot be replicated, that is interesting too as it could help narrow down why intermittent fasting approaches show benefits in other populations.

The one I set up uses virtualization and definitely still uses qemu.

If you're seeing it use the hypervisor framework, it's possible that's changed since I set mine up and they just haven't seen fit to advertise that change on the web site, which still claims that it's "based on qemu."

(I'm using UTM 3.2.4... just because that's what I used to migrate my data from my old linux laptop to my new mac, and I haven't needed to change it.)
Ah yes, good point. So what is it different about a match and a cigarette? Is the latter always successful?
It’s always about incentives.

If the sales people earned the same for renewals as they did onboard a new customer you can bet your sweet behind they’d treat you real nice like.
> In 2021, Illinois and Oregon became the first states to ban the use of deception during interrogations of minors ...

Is there any other modern democracy that allows deception as a method of interrogation to the same extent as the US?

In my country, Germany, deception during interrogations is forbitten even for adults. There exist only some minor exceptions, for example, that prior wrong ideas of the suspects may be exploited.

The central paragraph of the law is as follows:

(1) The accused's freedom to decide and exercise his or her will may not be impaired by ill-treatment, by fatigue, by physical intervention, by the administration of drugs, by torment [Quälerei], by deception [Täuschung] or by hypnosis. Coercion may only be used to the extent permitted by the law of criminal procedure. The threat of a measure inadmissible under its provisions and the promise of an advantage not provided for by law shall be prohibited.

(2) Measures that impair the accused's capacity to remember or to reason shall not be permitted.

(3) The prohibition in sections 1 and 2 shall apply without regard to the consent of the accused. Statements made in violation of this prohibition may not be used even if the accused consents to their use.

Having worked in UK for over a decade with various employers I never got an actual reference letter other than a confirmation of employment. Nor I have ever been asked for one when being hired. In fact if I remember correctly it might have been stated in some company documents that "they don't give references" and that "they'll confirm the job start and end date, the employee's job title and number of sick days taken and nothing else(that's required by the law if I remember correctly)". Although I had managers privately tell me of their willingness "to talk to" anyone I might need to give a reference to in private.

I never knew in Germany one is expected to obtain actual proper reference letters from past employers. Good to know just in case.

Long time ago (15+ years ago) I had worked in Poland. Back then I did get a written reference from the company I worked for. I can't say if those letters are required these days in PL.

George Hotz: Self-Driving Cars Are a Scam
When you follow a user on Mastodon there's no feedback; there is the other way around.
David Gelernter penned the book "The Muse in the Machine" in which he offers a slightly more technical explanation. It somewhat goes like this:

There are situations in which your subconscious mind is busy but the conscious mind's censors are active, blocking some connections from being made before they can be; now consider what happens when the conscious mind's censors are inactive. A prime time for that is the fog which occurs between deep sleep and fully awake - a brief period in which answers start popping up.

There have been stories in the past about people who solved complex problems "in their sleep".

Monica Anderson says of Gelernter's fog: whatever you do,don't open your eyes until you have fully locked the ideas down in memory,owing to the zillion bits/second flooding into your brain.

So, in my view, since I've learned how to keep my eyes closed as the fog lifts, I've also come to realize that a shower is a perfect place to allow the subconscious to shine. I found that sitting at a piano playing a mindless minimalist cord sequence works as well. I've read that Einstein would play his violin.

Where this all gets truly dangerous is driving along an endless road. How many times have you arrived at a destination and realized you have no idea how you got there?
Depends on the base station. We usually point them down and try to adjust the power output not to "spray" the signal all over the place but rather be focused (and save operator costs), however some stations are set on max power and a lot can bounce away, indeed.
It should work any place that has an AC power grid with accurate records being kept by someone. Isolated off-grid settlements running their own generation would probably not have that. Isolated off-grid solar, ditto.

The UK is all one grid, Ireland (the island) is another, there's a Nordic grid, a Baltic grid, and one for the whole rest of continental Europe (plus Morocco and Tunisia). The US has two plus a separate one for Texas, Canada uses the same two plus a separate one for Quebec (the jokes just make themselves), and Japan weirdly is cut in half, with a 60Hz grid in the south and a 50Hz grid in the north.

The bulk of the baby boomers have just hit retirement age, we have a much smaller GenX to inadequately replace them on the experienced end, a career-stunted Millennial generation filing in the middle, and an even smaller than GenX Zoomer generation joining the lower ranks. It’s a mess, but if the Millennials catch up and have enough kids then we’ll have a light at the end of the tunnel in 20 years.

"Redbox for software" strikes me as a pretty forward-looking idea for the time. IIRC monthly user group meetings were in large part potluck dinners, with pirated software instead of taco casserole.
This is all well and good but I’d love if this much energy was spent on figuring out why an unbelievable number of children are trying to kill themselves.

These things weren’t problems until the modern era, and are concentrated in White and East Asian populations.

Interestingly, some people are arguing that mass shootings are a form of suicide, and that these epidemics are linked.
>There are undoubtedly many areas in which memorization is useful. I tend to use memorization as a second-order tool, in the sense that it is only useful to memorize once I’ve learned that memorization would be necessary.

For me (in medicine), it is the exact opposite. Memorization comes first, then you start to actually understand and learn things. Everything is so intermingled and there is no "learn this first to understand that". In addition, you can't start practicing things before memorizing them.

I feel like it's the same thing with the mnemonics. It's useful at first, but not very practical or efficient. However, as you use it more, you actually learn and stop using the mnemonic.
What is DIMM training and what is the PSP?
> How's that a negative aspect?

Well, it reinforces a system where predominantly rich, white men who won the passport/work-permission lottery at birth are destined to continue receiving more money for doing the same work than the predominantly brown people of Asia and South America. It's difficult to understand why anyone who values equality would support this.

> you get paid the local rate and so can live anywhere in the world comfortably

You mean, what the company considers "comfortable", even though they don't live there?
Hard to respond to such a long comment containing so many different talking points.

I can’t tell if you are advocating for updating labor laws instead of relying on unions to influence individual employers. If that’s the case - that’s a strong argument.

Since forcing stronger labor protections at the Federal or even State level takes a very long time and is usually counter-acted by extremely powerful corporate lobbying and propaganda (e.g. Uber), unions offer a more immediate and flexible alternative.

Compared to most European countries, labor laws and benefits in the US are a joke. Unions fought for improving labor condition in Europe, and will hopefully fight for the same level of improvement in the US. Peeing into a bottle should not be OK at an Amazon warehouse, maternity leave should not be an optional benefit, “at-will” employment should not be the standard, etc etc
Harrumph. Tried reading the top recommendation, "Polly and (Not) Charles Conquer the Solar System" and was immediately thrown by this:

"I’d always wanted to be a starship captain. Then I made it to flight school and learned the awful truth: being an interplanetary starship captain..."

Purported SF author does not realize that "interplanetary starship captain" is an oxymoron. Closed that tab.

The third one, though, "My Future Self, Refused"? very self-aware, highly "meta" time travel story where the protagonist is an SF writer who hates time travel stories. Good stuff.
I should have been more clear: Apple has and continues to ship GPLv2 software but not GPLv3, since one interpretation of that license is that by including GPLv3 code in macOS, they’d be required to make the source code to at least the entire Darwin (the Unix layer underneath the GUI) operating system available, which is something they probably don’t want to do.

Which is why GNU’s core utilities don’t ship in macOS and why the outdated Bash 3.2 (GPLv2) still ships in the latest versions of macOS.

It’s also why ZSH, which uses a variation of the MIT license, is now the default shell when Bash was the default for many years.
I'd like to know, too:-)
Polycentric: A distributed Open-source Social Network
It's clearly not part of the solution as napkin math demonstrates, and that's not even including losses into and out of the batteries, which pushes the numbers into the realm of ludicrous.

If you want to argue otherwise, demonstrate it with an estimate of the energy amounts used.

Because I did the check. I don't think you have.
Nope. Nothing good. Sonic forums reporting problems back to last Monday. No idea what’s going on.
Should be linking to https://tlstoy.com/about, no? The root of the domain seems to be the API endpoint (and consistently returns "verdict: fraud" to a standard Safari browser, so not sure what's up with that).
Perhaps I phrased it poorly. The standard for proving innocence is raised above a “Preponderance of the evidence” to “Clear and convincing evidence.”

That’s a high standard which if lowered would obviously see more innocent people set free. But we shouldn’t assume there is actually any evidence proving innocence, after all before DNA testing many people who would currently be set free where killed. At best we can estimate who would be set free if we could actually view the past.
>In Rome, don't go to the Colosseum, go to the Baths of Caracalla.

Or you could just pay less than $1k for an after-hours tour at the Colosseum or Vatican and see the place without crowds.

Not an option for everyone, but I suspect one worth considering for lots of people here. You can almost always pay for various levels of VIP-treatment at places like this, even if they don't tend to advertise it well.
Yes, it is fantastic how people are reproducing scientific studies now, and even building on them. Just recently there was a study on firefighters and a question comes up about eating early or late in the window. And now, here is a study that looked at that exact question. It seems reasonably likely the next similar headline will be a meta-analysis, since we seem to have had a spate of studies recently.
Oh, I agree! I'm not saying what currently is considered legal or not, just what I think _should_ be legal or not. My argument isn't that the DMCA isn't enforceable, but that it's dumb.
How does GP's statement have anything to do with "nakedness" and "vices". Those appear to be your words, dude.

Besides, the woman that was killed in custody that started this whole mess in Iran was hardly "naked", quite far from it.

It's not the west's fault that people lack so much self-control they can't handle anything but a hijab. In my opinion that speaks incredibly poorly, if anything that means folks shold spend more time looking inward than foolishly crying out for divine protection

Moralism is far more responsible for a society's ills than "decadence" ever will be
What do you mean by “crippled”? As far as I can tell the only limiting factor on the capabilities of other OSes on Apple Silicon is the state of hardware support, which is marching forward at a brisk pace and it doesn’t look like there’s anything stopping third parties from fully leveraging the capabilities of that hardware.
I have just read the first chapter and you have a new fan.

Beautiful work.
Reason to be suspicious, sure. Just not reason to draw that conclusion firmly.
Supposedly. The video ends with a message essentially saying "I'll post details later if/when I feel like it".

Also: The posted video runs at 30 fps. There is no mention of 60 fps in the video metadata or in the video itself. Where did you get that from, OP?

(I'm not claiming that Doom in notepad.exe @ 60 fps isn't possible. On a sufficently fast computer I'm sure it is.)

"Deception leads to false convictions."

How?
Of course, and a lot of microphones don't pick up that low anyway.

That's immaterial because of harmonics.

While the AC wave itself is nearly a perfect sinusoid, various devices introduce all sorts of nonlinear properties, and produce higher frequencies that are harmonics of the base powerline frequency, and thus vary right along with it. These are insidiously hard to remove. Your best bet would be to encode all the voices with a vocoder, ditch the background sounds entirely, and play the coded voices back. Which of course makes it obvious that the audio has been altered...

I suspect that similar artifacts will be visible in lights too, since the brightness of an incandescent or neon source varies with the AC wave. Some fluorescents too, though LEDs all have DC drivers so they'd make it more difficult.

This article says that (an emergency resident says that) the analysis is not peer-reviewed and that the sample size is quite small (20 death for men below 40). A big part of the article is actually about showing us other less fringe opinions about this.
Prosecutors are also motivated to not have an expose written on how they sent numerous innocent people to jail. It's not just about conviction rate.

It wouldn’t be easy with fare gates, but the cost is probably too high to justify for NYC (imagine having to rip out all the existing turnstiles and replace them).
any books about this topics? thanks.
> The result of this on-shoring craze (modulo automation) is that we're likely to see very significant inflation, basically taking us back to the cost structures we saw in the 1980s. No more cheap Chinese or Vietnamese goods at Amazon or Walmart; if we have to Buy American, expect to pay the differential between Vietnamese and American wages, roughly a 30-40x increase.

I theorise that it might also lead to a reversal of planned obsolescence and products with a short lifespan. Companies might compete by designing goods based around longevity to justify the higher cost. Household appliances, for example, might be a once in a decade (or longer) purchase as opposed to the throwaway approach.
It scaled fine, because it’s been used for 30 years without many issues. All that modern garbage would have been out of date several times by now. The only reason to modernize is because the old hardware is failing.
