> Because they don't cost much? If at all?

You are probably wrong here, but would be nice if EU was transparent enough to tell us how much it costs. It is a server management, patch management, content management, and etc.. i can imagine that isn't as cheap as you think, done by EU employees that are normally well paid.
so you mention bearer tokens in another comment, so i’ll speak to that.

while bearer tokens are simpler, the protection they provide is more limited. for example, a bearer token has no request affinity so if i get your token for service foo from a request you made, i can impersonate you for the lifetime of that token. and it’s much easier to get your token, because it has to live your physical machine to be of any use.

with bearer tokens, the only way to reduce blast radius is to generate more tokens. get a token per-service/region, get a token every 5 minutes, etc. this is possible, but comes at the expense of availability. if the token vendor is down, the impact of the outage is proportional to how frequently and in what situations a caller needs to get a new token.

with signatures and client computation of scoped keys, you’re able to use much longer lived credentials while generating short term credentials only where necessary for that request.

Well, Ukraine is the most corrupt country in Europe after Russia:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Corruption_in_Ukraine

But it's never just a single leader like "Zelensky" it's the whole system and a big group of people. But at least Zelensky is trying to fight corruption by restoring the anti-corruption laws and planning other reforms because that's some of the conditions to get more money from the west. But of course now the war complicates things even more...

I don't know how but personally, this actually works.

Another thing that works is setting a not so exciting but also not so boring tv series playing on your mobile next to you and do work while it plays on. Again no clue how or why it works. My pet theory is that adhd brains just like multi tasking and keeping a portion of extra bandwidth zoned out is helpful in not getting distracted.
Housing has been on a long term uptrend. In 2010 I rented in my neighborhood for 700/month. A comparable property would rent for 4K/month now. This is outside of the city center in the northeast.

As I am naturally short housing, locking in a specific price point has massive benefits. If I had bought then, inflation alone would have reduced my long term monthly liability. As it stands I waited until 2018, locking in a 3k/month rate for housing. If housing corrects back to 2000 levels, I will sell my place for whatever I get - walk away from the mortgage and purchase a home in cash.

The thing that makes housing a strange asset class is that individuals are naturally short. Hence you carry a variable long-term liability on housing costs from day 1. Purchasing limits that liability.

>> most binary search implementations don't claim they only work under some particular inputs

> They do implicitly. It's just common sense.

That's neither how language specifications work, nor true in this case even if it's true in other cases. Providing one more of the same kind of input that already works is in no way the same thing as changing something totally unrelated.

> When you read a recipe in a cookbook, it usually doesn't mention that you're expected to be standing on your legs, not on your arms.

I don't think this binary search was breaking because of people standing on their arms either.

> A lot of generic algorithm implementations will start acting weird if your input size has the order of INT_MAX. Instances this big will take days or weeks or process on commodity CPUs,

It's incredibly strange to read this from someone in 2022. I don't know of any standard library algorithm that would take "days or weeks" for inputs of size 2^31 now, let alone the majority of them being like this. In fact I don't think this was the case back when the article was written either.
As a child, a lot of innovation comes from riffing on things you see/learn from the world around you.

When you talk to people that had scientific experiences as a child, a significant component of the learning comes from tinkering with already built devices, seeing an experiment and thinking "what else would work in this," etc.

Science isn't neatly labeled in a box. However, a decent chunk of it is using previously done research to guide new questions, a process that is emulated on a smaller level by chemistry sets.
I've found that, just as with CRCs, there's an abundance of articles that show the theoretical explanation of RS, but aren't much help for those wanting to actually implement it.

It’s a comparatively expensive operation (CPU and memory) compared with just encrypting the information which also blinds the network operator to the same extent. Unless you’re saying that you’d send the stream across multiple disparate networks. But if you’re able to get packets out of one, what’s stopping you from getting the whole stream out that network?
> Light speed gets you to the centauri system in about 4.5 years Earth time. With time dilation the main cruise phase of the flight would seem instantaneous on board the spacecraft. (It would be years on Earth of course.)

Oh? But if there is no ether, and no absolute dead reckoning for motion in the vacuum, then for all we know, the Earth system is moving at 0.8c in one direction and the spacecraft would be moving at 0.2c in the opposite direction.

Or something like that.

One part of "not boring" is picking one that fits your taste and the style of the site you are using it on. So there cannot be one canonical recommendation.

Google fonts is full of usable stuff. Just have the courage to pick something that isn't mainstream yawn-inducing boredom. The other points are almost automatically satisified. For GDPR reasons, copy the font file to your webserver (caching won't work anyways in modern browsers).

But if you really really want something safe, easy, no-thinking-required that works for almost everything, on most devices, is readable on screens, looks modern but sufficiently boring and inoffensive, has big unicode coverage: use Roboto.

Dividends and capital gains are taxed. Why would corporate debt be taxed?

Yes the problem is the payroll. Silicon Valley people engineers making $500k/year are the most under-taxed people in the country compared to European nations. Our corporate or capital gains taxes are unexceptional. It’s our taxes on the upper middle class—which haven’t been raised since Reagan-that are unusual. These people are the backbone of the tax base funding the welfare state in other countries.

Water rights in the Southwest are complex, but in general, "surface water" (rivers and streams) is alloted according to historical water rights, but "ground water" (drilled wells) is available to whoever owns the land on the surface. From the article:

Groundwater is the lifeblood of the rural Southwest, but just as the Colorado River Basin is in crisis, aquifers are rapidly depleting from decades of overuse, worsening drought and rampant agricultural growth.

Residents and farms pull water from the same underground pools, and as the water table declines, the thing determining how long a well lasts is how deeply it was drilled.

Now frustration is growing in Arizona's La Paz County, as shallower wells run dry amid the Southwest's worst drought in 1,200 years. Much of the frustration is pointed at the area's huge, foreign-owned farms growing thirsty crops like alfalfa, which ultimately get shipped to feed cattle and other livestock overseas.

"You can't take water and export it out of the state, there's laws about that," said Arizona geohydrologist Marvin Glotfelty, a well-drilling expert. "But you can take 'virtual' water and export it; alfalfa, cotton, electricity or anything created in part from the use of water."

Residents and local officials say lax groundwater laws give agriculture the upper hand, allowing farms to pump unlimited water as long as they own or lease the property to drill wells into. In around 80% of the state, Arizona has no laws overseeing how much water corporate megafarms are using, nor is there any way for the state to track it.

Essentially, this means that in most of Arizona, the water in the ground is free and unmetered for agricultural use by anyone who owns enough land to drill a well. As one would guess, this creates a crisis when some users are drawing enough water to lower the water table on surrounding land.
Treasury bonds pay 4.5% right now, so you would at least need to make 6% on your housing investment.

Not sure I follow. Forgetting how the tool works, it's sold as a tool that outputs usable code for customers. If it's outputting copyright encumbered code (even occasionally), then Microsoft/Gitlab is going to be liable for that.

I don't think an explanation of how it's okay since it's an AI model is going to impress a judge, if the plaintiff shows long passages of verbatim copyrighted code coming out of it.

If making things that would make him proud of you helps you move forward that's really great. It's a huge step.
But then, maybe later, you might switch this mindset to a new one which will be: I'm going to do whatever makes ME (not my dad) proud of MYSELF, because my life can end at any moment (maybe next month, maybe next year) just like my dad's. And that's when you will find true happiness back in your life. Just make yourself happy. That is what he would love to see most. I think. Wish you the best in this journey and congratulations for moving forward.

The founder of Bellingcat discusses this in his recent book.

He mentions things like "where/when did this happen", where were the people/things in the video at that time, which source did this arise from. Basically there's a whole web of context to any event, which is why the breaking news is the best place for this, but the long term viability is much harder.

He also mentions some NYT tech for timestamping their videos as they record them and to detect manipulation.

There are many good answers here but maybe there is a useful distinction to be made between:

- an echo chamber as a comunity in which certain ideas are amplified and others deemphasized or banned

- belonging to an echo chamber as an aspect of one's Identity

I would like to question whether a person interacting in multiple conflicting echo chambers and self censoring accordingly within each, would by subject to the detrimental effects of echo chambers in the same way.

I am not suggesting this actually happens. People are generally creatures of comfort.
As a self-taught developer here is how I did it.

I taught myself XML Schema a year before my employer at the time involuntarily forced me into programming. From XML Schema I learned a deep appreciation for language modeling, data structures, and relationships as trees.

When I was forced to program in JavaScript, my first language, the first thing I learned was to become very familiar with the DOM. The DOM is the backbone of everything frontend web and with that confidence you can do absolutely anything faster, both execution speed and development time, than most professionals with large frameworks. Understanding the document/page is a data structure of objects each with known relational paths to other nodes is a huge performance capability most people will never learn.

Then I really started to learn the actual language. Functions are everything. They are first class citizens which means they can be used and placed anywhere you can use and place a primitive, which is super expressive and portable. I also learned the advantages of the lexical scope model.

I learned early on that good software is explicit, portable, and highly predictable. If you have to guess at what’s happening when reading the code the code is poorly written. Code has flow control and the more immediately you, as a human, can read and trace that flow control the more durable your software is against defects and much faster to patch defects.

In my experience as a developer the biggest failure I see other developers make is that they never learn about automation. They expect some set of tools or memorized conventions to solve that for them. When the developer side of a software product is automated documentation is more available and up to date, performance is accounted for early on, regression analysis is baked in to warn you at the earliest, and so on.

The last major thing I learned as a developer was to measure things. Developers tend to guess at performance and tend to guess wrong by several orders of magnitude more than 80% of the time. Performance is either measured in duration (time to complete an operation) or frequency (operations per second). High performance is a force multiplier. Faster software features mean faster testing and faster analysis both manual and automated. Frequently waiting on software and page loading induces mental fatigue.

Honestly, not everyone can be good at software, but everyone can learn to write bad software. It’s the difference between administration and problem solving. To be good you need to have a passion for solving problems and improving things. It’s more than putting Lego blocks together. Anybody can snap some blocks together. To be good is more like determining what you need to do to take a car and cut the price in half while simultaneously making it faster than the competition.

If you do want to be good you need to innovate outside of work. If you are waiting for the job to tell you what to write you will be just as average as everyone else and lack the criticality to make more informed decisions about why current practices are crappy. That’s why measuring things is important.
I enjoyed it a lot. In the harder difficulties I sometimes would spend 15 minutes planning many moves in advance, and it felt rewarding when you crush the game by doing so.

But eventually I grew very tired of the mental effort required. After a long day using my brain, doing it for fun was just not doing it for me anymore.
My problem is I'd have an overpowering urge to interrupt the other person whenever I was stuck. That and my other mutterings, pacings etc would probably be intolerable.
It’s also not just users. Mastodon instances can have plenty of readers who never make an account.
