Absolutely. I tell my kids all the time that one only has so much energy, and that I choose to spend my energy on things I can actually put effort into changing while the things I have basically little or no bearing on are paid some attention, but I don't let them worry me too much.

"It is what it is" applies to so many modern world 'stresses'. Certainly makes life far easier to deal with and when the energy one does have is spent wisely, individual growth also trends upwards. Win win.
Yes this must be the reason we had improvements to efficiency last 2 years, while not in the office. Simply, you're provably wrong based on past data.
Also simply because Apple is a big boy. They've historically been able to throw their weight around, for example manufacturing in China & blacklisting when they don't get deals they want/crazy deadlines and pace requirements; remember the suicide nets?

> nearly all gifts are valued less by the receiver than the giver

exception: sexual favours ?
This game provides more satisfaction than solving a difficult coding contest problem. Some may treat it as a time sink; I see it as an allegory for our species as a whole. Is this the logical conclusion for humanity? To make paperclips?
I agree, but there are different kinds of gifts.

There's "I remember you and I want to show that I care about you" gifts.

These days, I'm ambivalent about such gifts, whether it's giving them or accepting them. It's not the love I'm ambivalent about, it's just that it's also usually a ... thing. Which takes up space.

But there are also "Man, you've got to see this!" gifts. Not just something that the receiver will like, but which the giver loves also. Things that grow what you have in common.

These gifts need familiarity and trust. If the giver isn't on the same wavelength as the receiver, it becomes a "this is your sort of thing, isn't it?" gift instead, and they are not the same, even when they hit the mark.

And of course, a "you've got to see this" gift from a stanger is just a promotional sample. There has to be familiarity already, otherwise it's an imposition. "Why did you think I wanted to be more like you?"

My brother is the one who most usually gives the good "you've got to see this" gifts to me, and I dare hope I've managed to give some back.
TLDR; some people likes some things, other people other. It is not possible to make everybody happy with a gift.
Yep, it's such a shame. Internode was great. Now that goes to AussieBroadband, their employees are great and their communication via whingepool is great.

XKCD 1357 is how old? And yet people continue to get it wrong.

It’s not censorship unless the government itself is doing the censorship and making people face criminal consequences for disobeying.

If a private entity is doing it, even at the request of a government, it’s not censorship or a violation of free speech unless they were going to face legal consequences for ignoring the government’s request.

> can't speak to the other poster, but I found the PowerShell example to misleading because it required the presence of a variable that the Nushell did not.

This was just a choice of OP and also isn’t a concern in PowerShell:

If you want to override the dependency of your dependency, then it's your dependency too - so if you were using the javascript approach up there you might have

var bar = require("bar", {baz: loggingBaz})
var foo = require("foo", {bar})

This is true even if you never otherwise use bar.

This is certainly how peer dependencies work in nix flakes, for instance, where you can say something like

bar = //....
bar.inputs.baz.follows = loggingBaz;
foo = //....
foo.inputs.bar.follows = bar;

Since nix flakes is a package/dependency manager, it generates a lockfile that you could inspect too see what all the dependencies are, and make sure you got it right (oh, I still have two bar's, I must have forgotten to override some other dep). I suppose any compiler that involves a linking stage would in principle be able to generate some comparable output at the language level.

(Apologies for using require and var, but I'm convinced the functional syntax is semantically clearer in this context.)

The missing plan for alien first contact
Most online video uses crazily overspecified h.264 bit rates for low complexity content. It's often possible to get 1080p well under 2 Mbit/s with little to no quality loss, and even lower by using 2 pass encoding where that's available. I'm not sure how things are with h.265 in a production setting, but at least for home use it seems to have much of the same flexibility
Understood, thank you!

I tried with HTTP and the red dots or bars disappeared. With HTTPS they are there.
I think efficiency of a hob is pretty low on the priority list right? Certainly when framed in cost terms (gas being cheaper than electric). The total amounts are too small relative to hot water / home heating to make much difference. Especially if you go out of your way to find an induction cooker with a decent interface (there is at least one out there with knobs).

For most things which would need cooked on a hob for a long time we use an Instapot electric pressure cooker anyway (out of preference rather than efficiency concern).
Is it seriously your working model of police that they’re frequently given lists of people who download apps and instructed to kill them? That’s how you believe policing works?

The original meaning of "meme" equated cultural snippets to genes. This seems to be a confirmation of the validity of that way of thinking about cultural ideas.

I don't think OP meant in general not thinking about a stiff back. OP was talking about telling yourself the story that you have a stiff back because you're getting older.
I believe in the sentiment, but it's true that we humans also crash our cars a LOT. From minor bumps and scrapes to multiple fatalities.
Is it possible that you're not in the groups that Nazis tend to discriminate against, and thus their behavior towards you doesn't feel dangerous?
They can be, and that's a statement about the distribution and consistency of skill in those activities. I see little reason to believe those distributions apply to SAT taking or general capacity to learn (which is what you're really aspiring to measure).

If we set up an ELO league for best-of-three rock paper scissors, I'd expect score to diverge over sufficiently many hours, but would give almost even odds to a 99th v 93rd percentile candidate.
For anyone else, who, like me, never came across the word before:

> A mews is a row or courtyard of stables and carriage houses with living quarters above them, built behind large city houses before motor vehicles replaced horses in the early twentieth century.

> If it is not not on your server, than you don't get to complain.

That is a rather naive slogan to be repeating in 2022.

Once your servers become the de facto public square, we absolutely get to complain. Not even talking about how your server is running on top of a huge amount of infrastructure that was created by our society, enabled by principles and laws that have been discovered and refined across generations. Your server does not exist in a vacuum.

Democracy requires a healthy public square to survive and thrive, and that is more important than some overly simplistic notion of private property.
Yeah I did that a few years back and life has become so much simpler. I can't believe I did not do it sooner.I still keep a few fancy pairs for fancy occasions but otherwise I have black socks, all the same; and white socks, all the same. Life is too short to match socks!

If you don’t like what the coin decided, you subconsciously knew what you wanted. Do that! You don’t have to keep flipping the coin to game your own system.

For real, this is one of the reasons my next car's going to be a diesel. No cat to steal.

Also fuel efficiency, and until very recently, diesel was cheaper than petrol here due to tax reasons. (even regular. Not Ag-diesel)

I'd get an electric car, if they were cheaper/available used. (road tax is based on CO2/km, so an electric one is free.)

Don't think it has much to do with the tech industry.

If it's a 5€ thing for a shop you have to get to first that might actually eat up the benefits already. (I'm in Europe, if I have to go to the city center I'd actually pay 6 € for both ways with public transport and probably 2-4 € in parking (+ gas)).

So yeah, unless I'm taking the bike it would probably not make sense to go out of my way to even cash in a 10 € voucher if it's not online or something I frequent anyway. There are no malls here in a sense that I'd be stopping by on even a monthly basis.
Fair enough. I agree that there is definitely more to just the economics of owning a piano. Times have changed but I do quite like the idea of passing down a piano too.

I also can accept your reasoning and definitely agree re. time value of money (and the value of optionality) but I was surprised actually see the numbers play out the way they did.

As for me, the much bigger problem is finding a place big enough to house a bloody grand piano!
I came across an article the other day claiming that some American kids were actually picking up an Australian accent (and a few Australian slang words like "dunny") over the pandemic thanks to the Australian kids' show Bluey being available on Disney+ in the US. I wouldn't be totally surprised if that effect was real.
The smart watch market is just huge.

By the way did you ever consider having your child apply to schooling in other countries that are purely exam and test based and somehow produce the engineers that FAANG companies love to hire? The education in those countries are almost free compared to the US and they graduate with minimal or zero debt and get hired for very high salaries by FAANG companies. Just look at the number of foreigners at FAANG companies with undergraduate STEM degrees from the rest of the world. They often do a masters or PHD (for free usually with TA or RA responsibilities) to get acclimated to the US and its nuances which your child does not need.
Adversarial Policies Beat Professional-Level Go AIs
Are you visually impaired of have you received or read criticisms of this nature from visually impaired persons? Genuine curiosity, because if this is a matter of accessibility I would vouch for tabs.

Thing is that with spaces you can also predict consistently the line length and not have code being clipped on someone's screen that set tabs for 8 spaces for some reason.

In any case, I like spaces but I am impartial to either one. You seem like you have very strong opinions about the matter so I won't push the subject further.

If it works for you, why would you migrate to a different product with features or performance outside of your needs? We are so deep into a disposable society that we eagerly await the NEXT BIG THING (TM) without ever evaluating what our need consists of or whether we have any need for an upgrade to begin with.
Depends on the use case. Recursive SQL can be good enough, maybe even faster, for certain use cases. The problem isn't so much the query language but the indexing. Graph engines index the nodes and edges in a particular way so that traversal is fast.

Most examples of Recursive SQL I've seen will only involve nodes on exactly one Table an with exactly one kind of a relationship/edge (for example a tree with "parent" edges). Graph DBs allow you to relate multiple different types of nodes using multiple kinds of edges. The edges can have queryable attributes like an intermediary table in a many-to-many relationship. And all of that is still indexed efficiently.

The biggest concern for northerners regarding their future careers is the continued and unchecked concentration of power and wealth towards London and other major cities. Their accent is close to the least of their worries.

In my first real office job, where everyone was paid a pittance, the employer offered free bagels on Friday mornings.

They were shit bagels, and cold, but the employees got to work early on bagel day and they stood in line to get one.

They all seemed to love it as much as I hated it.
Me: What is this... I don't get it....[clicks around]

Me 2 min later: Well, shit.... there goes my morning....

Me 20 min later: What the hell, I've already spent 20 minutes on this thing?!?

Edit: Okay, all jokes aside.... I just spent a whole hour on this. Seriously.... holy cow....
Indeed. The Fed only controls monetary policy, it can't control fiscal policy, and specifically can't remove money from those which have far too much spare (HNWIs and corporations) through the tax system.

Morgan Stanley lending Musk $12bn to destroy twitter with is the sort of thing that only happens when there's too much loose money at the top.
Abstract:

We attack the state-of-the-art Go-playing AI system, KataGo, by training an adversarial policy that plays against a frozen KataGo victim. Our attack achieves a >99% win-rate against KataGo without search, and a >50% win-rate when KataGo uses enough search to be near-superhuman. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first successful end-to-end attack against a Go AI playing at the level of a top human professional. Notably, the adversary does not win by learning to play Go better than KataGo -- in fact, the adversary is easily beaten by human amateurs. Instead, the adversary wins by tricking KataGo into ending the game prematurely at a point that is favorable to the adversary. Our results demonstrate that even professional-level AI systems may harbor surprising failure modes.
No, it's not.

Moderation is a special case/form of censorship. In many cases, it's a desired or willful filter as the article suggests, but it is censorship of information.

Censorship doesn't have to be forced, it can be agreed to but it's still censorship. Rebranding things to look fuzzy and give positive perception doesn't change the underlying principle.

Manipulation of information be it omission, selection picking, burying in piles of noise, etc are all manipulative tactics most of which are used to follow the spirit/intent of censorship. It happens in restricted environments like China but also happens in less restrictive environments like the US, the method of approach simply changes around what's legal and possible. One could argue censorship approaches in free speech environments are the most resilient because they rely less on the difficult tight controls of information flow nation states like China leverage.
“Right to Speech” does not equal “Right to Distribution”.

You are free to say what you want without going to jail, physical punishment, or fines (unless your speech is part of committing some other criminal behavior—such as fraud—or civil tort).

But nobody is obligated to provide you the means of distributing your speech.

Thats not to say that there aren’t asymmetric means of disseminating ideas or messages over third-party distribution channels. But you’ve got to be savvy enough to do that, or separately powerful enough to buy your own distribution.

Even owning distribution is pointless if you can’t communicate your ideas in a way that attracts listeners. “Right to Speak” doesn’t equal “Right to be heard”.

Is "redundancy" that you have to provide --dig?

I can imagine `jc` having some detection built in, from which it determines the command/content it's being parsed. Doesn't seem to have it, yet, and I'm generally no big fan of "magic" like this, but it would remove the redundancy.

Having it as a pipe, allows for much more, though.

some_expensive_command > out.log
jc --expensive-cmd < out.log

Or

hourly_dig.sh > example_com_records_$(date +%F+%s)
cat example_com_records_* | jc --dig
