> I don't think it's "whataboutism" to point out that we're comfortable buying goods made with child labour so long as they're from another country

We very much are not.

Both the USA and especially the EU have stringent laws against importing goods produced using child labour. Companies put some serious efforts auditing their suppliers to ensure no child labour is used and every time they fail it becomes a major scandal (see Nike as an exemple).

Actually the reason you know Foxconn employed 14 years old is because it was a major violation of child labour law and was widely reported as such. The Chinese state wasn’t happy about that at all. I can assure they didn’t go back to the production lines.
Microsoft Flight Simulator for the Tandy 2000 -- as far as I know, the only graphical game ever released for that system -- contained a single file FS.COM, size 60 bytes. Presumably the Flight Simulator program itself and all its data lived outside the file system and FS.COM simply bootstrapped the real program living elsewhere.

There is a byte-for-byte copy of the Flight Simulator for Tandy 1000, 1200HD, and 2000 disk floating around out there and it actually boots -- but says "Disk Error" when you try to actually start the simulator after the initial menu. So I guess someone will need to take a Kryoflux image in order to truly preserve the software... or write a trainer for it.
Andrew Waterman’s PhD dissertation, “Design of the RISC-V Instruction Set Architecture”, is quite accessible and starts with a similar analysis of other ISAs (including OpenRISC):

> Besides, the idea that you have to be wealthy to avail yourself of test prep is absurd. I buy books at the thrift store all the time, and there are always test prep books there for a couple dollars [...] There are no excuses.

Not quite. You have assumed that money is the only barrier, but that is not the case.

Arguing that "test prep is free - or nearly free - so anyone must be able to prep", doesn't account for the fact that both money and time are barriers to test prep.

What if you have no time prep because you must support your family through work? You have no free time to prep - or do any extracurricular - because you have a job. This is not uncommon! Or you have a parent or guardian who is incapacitated in some way and you must act as their care-giver? Again, not uncommon.
The person posts an essay on their perspective and that’s what you have to say?
> (2) I think is addressable in the same way that it is in CI - our theory has to explain our observed experience and the born rule (whether CI-flavored or MWI-flavored) is how we do so.

Absolutely, but I would still say that it means we are adding an extra postulate that can't be derived directly from the Schrodinger equation even in MWI. I'm not trying to claim that the MWI is wrong: just that it is not simpler than the CI (nor it is more complex though - I'm arguing it has the same number of postulates).

> But getting larger and larger.

Sure, and I'm really hoping we'll advance closer to macroscopic objects in my lifetime, so maybe some of these questions may be elucidated.

> Thanks for an informative discussion!

Thank you as well!
TFVC is more like Subversion but has a lot more features. It has next to nothing in common with git except that you can use it to version control files. Although I would agree that git's workflow is better for almost all use cases.

Azure DevOps has a lot more features than GitHub for micromanagement which means that middle management loves it. You can design elaborate workflows on boards and link almost everything together. It also supports reporting, connects directly to the Azure AD, and supports complex permission management with ACL for nearly every feature you can imagine.

It also supports free stakeholder accounts.
GCP have a few good choices for a Heroku alternative. App Engine standard also has a free tier of 28 instance hours a day and has convenient deploy and tracing features built in. But GCP has no free tier transactional SQL database.
You're right, I'm wrong, apologies to everybody involved.
Wanting something is not consent. Kids can want all sorts of things and that doesn't demonstrate having a capacity for decision making.
I see your point. Seems pretty subjective either way. For example, “I didn’t choose for my car to be towed so the cost should be paid by the tower.”

But to some extent maybe it’s moot because most prisoners would never be able to cover the full cost of their stay. I wonder though if there was a sort of coding-bootcamp-like profit sharing model with inmates where the gov tried to maximize their economic productivity they might end up getting trained for better and more humane jobs, trades, nursing, coding, winwin.
I have vague memories of using either one of these or maybe an Intel iPSC (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel_iPSC) at Daresbury Labs back in the day to model pulse shapes. Whichever it was it was definitely i860-based and a hypercube interconnect, and I recall it was distinctly weird to program (but I think programmed in C, not Occam).
I’ve tried Render recently and overall i liked the experience with setup and configuration of my stack.

Although the performance was abysmal. It’s either their compute or postgres, but my import of 25mb json via a script took 22 minutes ($450/month) on job plan, while my 2GB digital ocean box did the same in 3 minutes.

Also email support takes 3 business days to respond.

But render has great potential. If they fix the performance and straighten out the support, they would definitely win over a lot of heroku customers.

Probably will just migrate to Dokky and be done with it.
macOS, iOS, and Windows are more than a resolv.conf change away from fully validating DNSSEC.

It takes away a job that someone who is not a criminal could be doing.
You get 1000 resumes for a job. How do you drop 95% of the applicants. One easy way is to look at the University and GPA as a quick snuff test. After running that cheap low-pass filter you now only have 50 Resumes. You now spend ~3mins on each of those resumes to determine the 10 people you plan to interview.

That's why university matters, it helps you get past the first level of screening. It's also fair of employers to assume that the average Top 25 university graduate is better than the AVERAGE bottom 50% university graduate.
This topic came up a few weeks ago and I commented [0] that I started using Coolify (https://coolify.io), an open source self-hosted PaaS that's similar to CapRover and Dokku but in my opinion the developer experience is a lot simpler since it has a GUI unlike Dokku (non-Pro version, anyway) and the deployment was easier than CapRover since it connects directly to your GitHub/GitLab account via their API.

I've used a lot of the alternatives listed here but each one had some drawback or another. In contrast, I got a cheap 5 dollar Hetzner server and it's more powerful than any of what the free options here give you (Hetzner gets you 2 AMD vCPUs and 2 GB RAM), plus unlike AWS I never have to worry about whether I'm gonna randomly pay $10k this month due to a traffic spike. The only thing that was missing before was a good PaaS solution for the server (and I used to use Dokku before primarily) but Coolify solves that neatly.

The most interesting part is at the end, where they show engine features, but at the same time they character is walking through the streets and you can see character animation and lighting is off. My guess faces/motion in the middle of the demo are pre-animated.
Take time off. Completely disconnect, turn your phone off. Force yourself to do it for a week.
Why does every YouTube video start with a loud "WHAT'S GOING ON GUYS!!!" lol
It all depends on your setup. The technical work was only a week for us. Getting approval and setup with a merchant account takes more time though, and they even came to do a physical inspection of our place.
Sounds cool! If you have something public I'd love to see it. Email is in my profile.
Before we fetch the pitchforks and torches do we have any proof of this beyond a screenshot of a potential ToS violation?
io_uring is basically a drop-in for epoll. It has an intrinsic performance benefit because multiple operations can be both submitted and completed in a single action. Rearchitecting is only optional when going further by replacing standalone syscalls with io_uring operations. In the case of poll(2) I believe it should be no more difficult than refactoring for epoll.

Um, you make it sound like prisoners are just helpless beings that have no agency and are fully passively pushed into a situation. Society didn't ask the prisoners to commit crimes either, but they (mostly) did anyway. Society has no choice but to impose a very unproductive form of punishment, and needs to find a way to get something out of it.

The main reason to be against prison labor is that it creates perverse incentives to not rehabilitate prisoners (even though participation in labor may help with the rehabilitation process). There's also a risk that cheap prison labor undercuts legitimate businesses. Prisoners also can't be entrusted with anything outside menial and low-impact labor, and as a result the amount of productivity they can offer is really limited.

But requiring prisoners to work partially for their own food and shelter in itself shouldn't be that controversial, especially when they are convicted of serious crime.
Americans also have a weird thing about ice in hotels/motels. I've also heard they fill urinals with ice? But pretty sure that can't be true, that's just too strange and wasteful.
That would be an interesting way to solve this type of problem: make the payment processor pay interest on money withheld. Even at a low interest rate, it would hopefully incentivize them to figure out better ways of handling the risk. Are there any US legislators on HN?
I am planning to alter the PHP's parser so that $ is used for constants while variables are $ less. Simply flipping the use case will make it so much sane.

It has to more than just a cap on price. Demand is managed too with systems of entitlement.

I am unsure of the details but I know my children tangled with the system whilst on OE in Amsterdam. It was well established and functioning.

What! A 2nd tier school still has strong peers which you can surround yourself in. If you're at the top of a 2nd tier school you can push yourself to be near the PHD researchers and graduate students giving you similar academic peer rigor.
Thanks, in the youtube video you mention ODD v4 with "enterprise features". Do you plan to release paid enterprise features?
Pop was rock solid for me until it wasn’t. Wouldn’t recognize memory and throttled one of my NICs after I installed an NVidia card and drivers. Reinstalling didn’t help. Installed Ubuntu Budgie and has been smooth sailing since.

I love Linux but wish it wasn’t such a pain and required blowing up installs every so often. By contrast, not once have I had to blow up a Mac OS instance to stabilize it.
I think that a lot of people skip over the "except as a punishment for crime" part in the 13th amendment. I know I did for a long time until I saw a show where the prison warden was explaining it:

> Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.
You're likely referring to COD4:MW, aka the one that made the franchise what it is. That game was outstanding for the time. Real cool locations, renderings like from the spectre gunship camera system, etc, made it special. The gameplay hasn't aged that well tho, it's easy to see the cracks now.
You're trying, and failing (you don't have all the available keys, because servers can selectively change their responses) to design a transparency scheme for the DNS PKI, one that does not currently exist, which is deliberately different than Certificate Transparency, now that you've learned that Certificate Transparency won't work for DNSSEC. You've vindicated my argument.
Try megadosing B1 HCL for a month, you might be just super low on it in brain tissues and therefore get mild symptoms that are gradually worsening. You might have slow demyelination - "Thiamine is a cofactor of the very important enzyme Transchetolase of the pentose phosphate shunt that in the brain and in particular in myelin is particularly active." Long-term lack of B1 seems to be pretty common with processed foods diet. B1 is not known to be toxic in any dosage (excess excreted in urine) so it's a safe thing to try.
We still allow slave labor in general in the US[1] and farm labor for 13 year olds. That’s not to defend this practice but to point out it’s not as big an ethical leap for someone already observing situations close to this and rationalizing it as just pushing the envelope a bit in their mind.

No, this was a role based access control and enterprise databases support.
"maybe 99.99% of world population wouldn't harm another person"

I think they would... especially in self-defense, in defense of someone they cared about, and plenty would do so for ideals like "freedom", "country" or "democracy"... and if they wouldn't most would be perfectly happy to let others do it for them.

That's why the military and police exist, and why most people are perfectly happy to fund and support them. It's also why wars have so many participants and supporters.

Politicians can further rile people up to commit violence against scapegoats and even preemptively against distant potential threats. It's not so difficult for them to get a lot of people to commit violence against a historical, cultural, political, religious, or ethnic enemy.
Probably trying to avoid a conflict of interest. The magnanimous thing to do would earn interest and track it and refund that interest minus taxes to the final fund recipients- either the business or the customer. Might even be tax free if setup right.

Even the IRS does it.
This concept has always baffled me too. There's the old saying (I think from cold war era): the difference between you (a foreigner) and me is smaller than the difference between us and our respective leaders.

It is very clear to me that these existential threats are elites playing a game with our lives. The lives of everyone on this planet. The same elites that have nuclear bunkers and would survive the repercussions of their acts. The same elites who get us worked up with racism and scapegoatism. It doesn't matter if you're American, Indian, Chinese, or Russian; the honest to god truth is that the VAST majority of us want to just live in peace and don't give a shit about this geopolitical nonsense. It's strange to me that you can go back to Diogenes and find people discussing this same sentiment, about being citizens of the world. Nationalism is a hell of a drug. Fine in moderate usage but large doses make people go insane.

I do recognize that there is a lot more complexity to all this. Like another commenter pointed out, even 0.01% of 8 billion is 800k. But this shows an existential threat to humanity. That even if the rate of psychopaths with power is extremely low, that the total number is still quite large. But it isn't just these elites that make us think small cultural differences are quite large, I see every day people come to these same conclusions. I don't understand how this happens when we really are all just people doing people things. Exposure?

I'm not sure how to solve this tbh. I do think working towards a post scarce society is one of the biggest tools we can have. People tend to be much nicer and far less likely to act criminally when they don't have to worry about getting by. People aren't inherently evil, but justify small steps in that direction with good intentions. Post scarcity takes away some of this power that these people have, but it won't take away all of it. I know this is something we techies here are able to work towards, but I don't know what the other parts are, and I don't think it is going to be a fully technological solution (that would be absurd). But I do thin, like you're saying, that we need to discuss this. After all, even if it is unlikely to happen, the fate of the human race depends on this discussion. A 0.001% chance of nuclear war is still too high.
Privatized incarceration facilities with incentives to keep people locked up, and influencing the CJ system to maintain profits is also an issue. There are numerous cases of businesses doing shady things to pocket more money.

It is possible to be outraged by all these things at the same time. No one has to pick between different types of exploitation and only be mad at one thing.
It might not be an oxymoron, but it is like complaining about the landlord saying no to an aquarium in your rented apartment.

A police officer is a position of power. In many parts of the world, someone in this position of power will use that power to acquire resources via bribes or extortion. This person with authority of the state has a right to violence that you do not have. This person has determined they have a right to your money and a "justification" (The law of nature: I have more power) to take it.

If you give the money there is no 'harm,' yet you have been harmed with the threat of violence. If you need that money to feed yourself or get medical care for your child, it might literally result in death.

If you fight the police officer, others will come after you. If you gather your friends to fight the police officers, you have now subverted the government, created your own government (because you are now an agent of enforcement of your own set of "laws"), and now started a very small scale war (revolution) out of your desire to not be harmed.

If you don't think people would self enrich at the cost of others, I have some very bad news for you. Just because a person hasn't been physically damaged, doesn't mean they haven't been harmed.

If there was a button that gave you a million dollars but would kill a person you have never met, I think you vastly underestimate the number of people who would press it, and those that do press it, would probably be happy to press it many times.

The way you use the word harm is what prevents you from making sense of the problem.

Confusion is not the result of understanding. Sadness is.

Makes sense, and is probably the "safest" you can get. Since, as you say, you know exactly the state of everything on that thread when you're in your handler, you can also know that your thread local was set properly before the epoll_pwait() call.

It's probably code I'd want to isolate somewhere, with big warnings so any future reader understands why it is how it is, but I agree it's probably the safest way to do it.
Once at the Exploratorium in San Francisco I saw an exhibit where mosquitos were in a mesh terrarium, such that you could offer your hand to them without being bit. I offered my hand and had few takers. Someone else stepped up to the exhibit and offered their hand, and many mosquitoes flocked to them.

Yes, you got that all right but left out the cherry on top. Prosecutors will try to make a deal with you for admitting your guilt. As an innocent person your instinct would obviously be to reject any admission of guilt and go to trial, surely the jury will find you innocent? But in that scenario, prosecutors make clear they will seek the maximum penalty, which for possession of CSAM could very possibly be 50+ years in prison. Do you take the risk? After all, technically you are in possession of the material even though you know it wasn’t you who put you there. Who knows what the jury will think. Or do you take the deal and go on with the rest of your life falsely being labeled an admitted, convicted pedophile?

My heart aches for your sister by the way, I hope she can somehow heal.
I've met delusional people, but I disagree with your stance. I think there has to be a better way. The reason we go to war is not because these delusional people exist, but because they are able to garner massive support. War can't exist without people willing to die for a cause. Those causes are frequently lies or exaggerations. Or issues caused by autocrats (delusional people) seeking to expand their power. The existential threat to humanity isn't so much that delusional people exist, but that the average person still holds celebrities in high regard. Because we treat men like gods.
Would that really even be breaking the record? Usain Bolt could easily be beaten in a race by, say, a car. A cannon would win the olympic shot put contest handily. The record is "who is the best human at X," not "what is the best X."
