Yeah, but would you have written a tirade about left handedness?

Or let me just ask this directly: do you support trans people existing and being openly trans? Because it sounds to me like you’re just triggered by my mention of being trans, and you’re trying to rationalize it and make it sound like you have a coherent logical argument for your emotional reaction.
The underlying problem is that malloc-style dynamic memory requires the allocations to stay in place from malloc until free, so if malloc makes a bad decision early on, it can't fix it once it finds out it made a mistake. And any nontrivial decision malloc makes can be made retroactively bad with the right (wrong?) set of subsequent requests.

Stop putting every BSD in the same basket.

Also, this is Unix, you can put encrypted slices/partitions with ease. You can omit to encrypt the system files and encrypt the data and config partitions.

The biologization of industry is more or less correct, but we're not going to get antibody boxes (using current technology - yes there are some ideas kicking around and I'm thinking of someday doing a startup on it but initial capital expenses are high for industrial biotech and largely incompatible IMO with sv style vc); antibodies are not solely defined by their DNA sequencing and correctly manufacturing them is not simple.

English has a lot of Latin in it, plus if you are a cosmopolitan English speaker you probably get exposed to some French, Spanish (if only when you read the wrong side of a brochure at Home Depot and realize you understood it anyway), Latin, Italian, Portuguese, etc.

Interlingua doesn’t claim to serve any community outside European language users, but it does succeed at that, I think.

Overall interlingua is about as simple and regular as can be. A Chinese speaker might still be better off learning English but I can’t imagine they’d find interlingua any harder than any natural language.
Well I'm not saying I like it, but this is quite different. In the case of YouTube TV, the fact that you "recorded" something does not mean that it is now yours and that you "own" it. All it really means, I assume, is that you have so-to-speak bookmarked that show and perhaps received from Google a unique URI which enables you, so long as the show is available and you maintain your YouTube TV membership, to access that show. But it's still subject to all of the licensing terms related to that show as well as your ongoing membership to YouTube TV. You could not, for instance, sign up for YouTube TV and just record as many shows as you can get your hands on and expect that this means these recordings are now "yours" or that you now have access to all of these shows in perpetuity. In contrast, in the case of you recording something onto a VHS (assuming this is even legal), for someone to come into your house to scrub those tapes would amount to trespass, possibly theft, and other forms of illegal property destruction. So I would say it's quite different in several meaningful ways and that your hypothetical is pretty hyperbolic.

My napkin formula would be p_tumor_body=(V_body/V_cell)*p_tumor_cell, so your statment makes intuitive sense, I'd say. The more cells you have, the more tumor suppression you need to make it a secondary cause of death over your expected life span.

I think we're kind of becoming multi a cell organism.

There's limit to human knowledge, but we are getting more and more efficient at communication, both with other humans and with machines.

Even without something like Neuralink we are creating abstractions and interfaces allowing us to quickly connect our work with others. E.g. especially with ML you can lazy load all necessary context.

Why? It hasn't changed in years. It's easy to use and glaringly obvious that it's a non-secure conversation. Sometimes I go to add a reaction to an SMS conversation before remembering that those don't work on SMS - the only problem I have ever had with it.

> outside the US

that's a 330m-person population, which is also home to Signal. Not only do I get SMS from people like neighbors and so that I don't especially want to convert, SMS is used to send payment receipts/pickup notes in restaurants, 6 digit verification codes for many websites and so on. If you are outside the US and don't have to deal with SMS congratulations, but for the large number of people in a territory where it is still a key part of digital infrastructure, arbitrarily yanking the feature is a huge pain.
Thanks! (this is my project).

Your copter project looks great! I’ll have to check out TFLite!

I’m only running twice a minute and only during daylight hours. These large boats move pretty slow, so it’s not terrible…. At $1 per thousand calls, it’s a little less than a dollar a day.

I would be interested in trying out on device classification at some point both for reducing the cost and more frequent image capture (the boats aren’t that fast but it would be nice to get the “perfect” framing).

Thanks for your comment and thanks again for sharing your project — very cool!
I clicked on a few "Snowfalls are now just a thing of the past" is about English snowfalls, and it is true that we don't have heavy snowfall, not sure why this is a failed prediction, it's more of a statement of fact.

Some of these other predictions aren't necessarily falsified.

Peak oil may have already occurred. The fact that we have to resort to offshore drilling shows the low hanging fruit have already been taken.

Another example of a debatable prediction is "Fifty Million Climate Refugees by the Year 2020" - this is something that environmental groups claim is a correct prediction as they attribute certain current wars (e.g. Syrian Civil War) to have been caused by droughts caused by climate change.

Some of these predictions were not made by scientists or were clearly just meant as a slogan to galvanise action - e.g.

There are two types of poverty being talked about here.

In the United States (where it is not only possible, but common for two people with education to lift a family out of poverty into the middle class), most people below the poverty have a drastically superior standard of living to anyone below the poverty line in India. The type of "poor" where two people are working full time jobs in the US would not be considered poor in India.
And those who enforce the orthodoxy and end up being wrong look ignorant or foolish (at best) or liars and propagandists (at worst).

My happy medium is encrypted PCs that sync everything onto my unencrypted home server.

This isn't for everybody, but it's probably the safest my family can be.
The further you get from the object you're photographing, the closer your photo gets to an orthographic projection instead of a perspective projection.

I have minimum-legal insurance on my (gas, 1000cc) motorcycle. It costs $99/yr through Geico. If you really wanted, I bet you could get down to $75 with an off-brand insurance supplier and probably lower with a moped. A mild annoyance, but still less than a blue check mark.
As I understand it, iOS backups normally go to iCloud -- where they're stored encrypted but the keys are held by Apple (i.e. not end-to-end encrypted, and not a zero-knowledge system by any stretch). This makes iCloud-stored iOS backups susceptible to subpoena, malicious employees, and/or good-enough hackers.

IMO, trying to do something that's usually (a) inherently intrinsically motivated + (b) operates on long timelines, is exactly the sort of thing that:

1. Cannot be easily captured via "metrics", and

2. Is resistant to being "scaled".

Yet, for better or worse, we have ended up with these "mass Ph.D" systems and their surrounding ecosystems, so outcomes like in TFA are going to be increasingly common.

The Democratic voter base is huge. From people who are centrist, to those who just oppose the Republican agenda but that don't agree with corporate Democrats.

How do you know if it should open or close the garage? Does it open when you start the car? How quickly does it open the garage when you get home?

I’d be very interested to see the actual code of this as I’d like something similar. That said, CarPlay gives me a button to open/close the garage (which I have linked via Homebridge to my garage door opener, works 70% of the time). I just wish it was better tied to the alarm system.
It’s the reality. Money is an abstraction over value. You provide value to get money, you spend money receive value. Some value is provided by nature (clean air, wild berries, etc.) and is therefore priceless. However, most value is created by applying energy and human attention to base inputs. Money is not a battery for work in the physics sense, or for work in the labor sense. If you earn money through labor today, there is no guarantee that there will be someone tomorrow willing or able to do the same labor you did for the same money. Humans want to believe in stored value (see bitcoiers, goldbugs), but the reality is the majority of value in the world is delivered by systems that must be continually operated such as energy grids, water systems, retailers, internet infrastructure providers, farms, and factories. There is nothing that guarantees these systems will exist tomorrow except for the efforts or regular people like you and me, so there is nothing that guarantees that your money will be worth anything tomorrow except for the belief that everyone will keep showing up and trying.
Here is an interactive data visualization comparing incomes within and between countries:

https://income-inequality.info/

All incomes are in PPP (purchasing power parity) dollars, so you can see that living at the US poverty line of $11k/year places one at about 85th percentile (having more income than 85% of the world's population).

You can see the code for it on Github as well: https://github.com/whyboris/Global-Income-Distribution
Basically generalize the concept of hypermedia controls (links and forms) in the manner of htmx:

- generalize event triggers for hypermedia requests

- allow targeted replacement of HTML within a page (rather than requiring a full page refresh)

- surface all the HTTP methods (DELETE, PATCH, PUT) in plain HTML

All small things on top of normal HTML functionality, but, together, allow much more sophisticated user interfaces to be built:

I wish! Though, there might actually be a correlation here, since parental stability, income levels and education affect marriage/divorce rates, and parents with their act together would have more money to give, and more of a chance of a meaningful estate to bequeath.

I think every high schooler should be taught how to project cash flow and figure out quality of life based on various scenarios. There is so much pay and expense data available now, there is little reason these kinds of opportunity costs should be a surprise.
It's effectively just multiple key protectors. TPM+PIN is one way to protect the data encryption key. You can also backup the actual encryption key (which is the recovery key). You can also add a password that protects the key or back the key up to an online Microsoft account or enterprise Active Directory account.
I haven't spent much time thinking about this but were Einstein's contributions a combination of intellect and "shallow" or relatively quick frontiers. I.e. a very intelligent intellectual working on the problem sets that are approachable without the same level of overhead required these days?

I.e. Today's world wouldn't support an individual who could have such an impact on most math/scientific disciplines?
Right now India is in a transition period and wages for these kinds of jobs are keeping pace with gains in productivity and that's how you're seeing so many lifting themselves are their families out of poverty.

However, if history is anything to go by that will stop pretty soon as the hyper upper class solidifies their hold on wealth, appreciating assets, and means of production, and will start to keep larger and larger shares of profit while workers' wages stagnate, and then inflation will start to decrease the purchasing power of those stagnating wages, and the middle class will start to shrink and disappear as it is in America and other "free market" capitalist countries.

TERF: [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TERF]

To understand what the fuss is about, we'd need to hear the talk. Drowning out the talk wouldn't be helpful to that end. Someone who has lived as female their whole life, went through menstruation, maybe bore children, will have had different experiences than someone who lived as male and had a penis until they changed and didn't. Their experiences will overlap somewhat, but also won't in various ways.

So it's really hard to take a stance on that without more education, sounds at the top like an argument over definitions. Trans women is never biological woman, that's easy.

Waiver is a better term than "trigger warning". Students who are resilient to challenges to themselves and can reason calmly, even confidently back to the source of the challenge, will be much more useful to themselves and society after graduation.
My family members will basically all stop using Signal now because they didn't want two apps for messaging. This will make all my conversations less private rather than more. It was a really dumb decision. I was able to convince a lot of people to switch because "it's just text and voice messaging except if we both have the app then it's more secure." I will basically be alone in my usage of Signal after the change goes through and am assuming I'll just uninstall it eventually as well once my family isn't there anymore.
Very nice stories. I just switched to Linux on my laptop to avoid all the iCloud ads. Now I'm considering ditching my iPhone too because as you say my laptop and my iPhone no longer work together perfectly anyway. So I have a bunch more options for phones!

As a mobile dev, it's sometimes frustrating finding interesting work and BLE seems to be one area where businesses are willing to do something useful outside of duplicating simple REST calls and occasional multimedia uploads so the app can be at parity with the limitations of a website. Most product people are limited in their thinking of what's even possible because of their narrow usage of the capabilities.

Our phones are packed with sensors, and are more powerful than the computers that landed us on the moon. Apps can be so much more than dumb pipes for simple data upload and download from a server.

> But parody accounts that criticize the new owner are somehow a step too far.

Elon claims she was suspended for impersonating a comedian not Elon. She later changed it to Elons name but the original report she was banned for was someone else. Saying this is only about protecting the boss doesn't really hold up.

Having rules again Impersonation isn't wrongthink. Thats a big stretch and sounds a bit desperate.

I also highly doubt the new rules are "everything goes except what is illegal". They haven't even announced what the new policy is but there's no way it's going to be a free for all for prominent accounts (random accounts were always given more leeway because there are simply too many of them).

Twitter went hardcore in one (highly inconsistent) direction. You could significanty pull back from aggressive moderation and still not be an "illegal or all" scenario. Which is far more likely to be the case given pressure from advertising and because it makes sense as a product descision.

People didn't care about Twitters moderation until they went hardcore. The solution doesn't need to be hardcore in the other direction to be a big improvement.
Highlights from the Comments on Brain Waves
What do you mean? That article says the claim is false. LCD monitors emit blue light whether you want it or not anyway. Merely setting something in the OS to change the color temperature does not eliminate blue light and I don't think it even necessary changes the color temperature.

In practice unsafe Rust is necessary to write many classes of nontrivial code, and is harder to get right in many ways than C++ (possibly C) and I think Zig.
Much of the bogus predictions were based on flawed observations and bad ideas like the hockeystick data normalization problem, and a failure to account for the trend of deglaciation which predates industrialization. A general discounting of solar radiance, misunderstanding albedo, and pushing a low CO2 norm was also part and parcel to this hogwash.

We knew there were incorrectly sited weather sensors that fed data into the climate record, just like ASOS, receiving prop blast and jetwash. Some HCN sensors that had been correctly sited became incorrect over time due to urbanization and industrialization. The discongruence between space based observations and in-situ flawed sensors are the clearest indication of this.

This is also why we saw the rise of the HCN-Reference. We also saw a better understanding of the medieval warm period which, although potentially regionalized, is not without precedents.

The process of fixing of these flaws, we call that science. However, this has not stopped the religious cult from a rearguard action defending by whatever name they choose to call it these days.
