The 1902 Britannica as well - https://archive.org/details/encyclopaediabri06kell/page/254/... .

Also, October 29, 1896 "The Youth's Companion" p 583 at https://archive.org/details/sim_youths-companion_1896-10-29_... . The details have changed a bit from the Britannica story.

That in turn cites Edith Lichel's 1895 "The Story of Two Salons." https://archive.org/details/storytwosalons00sichgoog/page/n1... , which does not give further citations.

The Britannica biography says 'On the evening of the 7th April 1794 — not, as Carlyle says, on a " bleared May morning,"'. Using Carlyle" and "bleared May morning" as search terms finds it comes from "The French Revolution" by Thomas Carlyle, first published in 1837.

However, while that does describe the story of how Condorcet was identified, it does not mention omelettes or eggs only "asks breakfast". Quoting https://archive.org/details/frenchrevolutio16carlgoog/page/n...

> Condorcet has lurked deep, these many months; Argus-eyes watching and searching for him. His concealment is become dangerous to others and himself; he has to fly again, to skulk, round Paris, in thickets and stone-quarries. And so at the Village of Clamars, one bleared May morning, there enters a Figure, ragged, rough-bearded, hunger-stricken; asks breakfast in the tavern there. Suspect, by the look of him! "Servant out of place, sayest thou?" Committee-President of Forty-Sous finds a Latin Horace on him: "Art thou not one of those Ci-devants that were wont to keep servants? Suspect!" He is haled forthwith, breakfast unfinished, towards Bourg-la-Reine, on foot: he faints with exhaustion; is set on a peasant's horse; is flung into his damp prison-cell: on the morrow, recollecting him, you enter; Condorcet lies dead on the floor. They die fast, and disappear: the Notabilities of France disappear, one after one, like lights in a Theatre, which you are snuffing out.
Z-library founders arrested in Argentina
ASX is the Australian Stock Exchange. They have just abandoned one of the world's most high profile attempts by a mainstream trading business to use the blockchain to trade shares.
Fast type inference library for Common Lisp
Fwiw, I live in California as well, Bay Area specifically. My elementary school kid walks ~2/3mi from school (with a friend) and my middle schooler bikes a few miles to school solo. So do many of their friends. It’s the norm in my neighborhood.
I was diagnosed last year at 35. I've tried and failed to launch my own projects since I was 13.

I was a classic adhd child, at a time when diagnosis and treatment was rare.

Children whose dopamine regulation issues are treated early can leave medication as their brain adjusts while still plastic.

In adulthood you're stuck. I've battled addiction, terrible damage to relationships and failure to achieve my full happiness potential.

Founding a company is extra hard.

I'm glad I'm medicated now. The result has been life changing and profound.

The more we talk, treat and exercise compassion about this horrible neurological disorder the better.

It isn't like a broken leg or depression, the symptoms are varied and express in complex ways.

Thank you to anyone talking about this with kindness and compassion
Fast acting stimulants are prone to abuse, and people with ADHD are more likely to have addictions (because, you know, deficit of dopamine). A competent psychiatrist follows their patient throughout the treatment to evaluate if the cure is worse than the disease. If that's the case, adapt the treatment: switch to extended release medication, change medication, up/lower the dose, impose weekly sessions to keep the medication to control abuse,... The tool box is clearly not empty.

Did you ask your friends how they are doing or did you find them annoying once and decided the problem was their medication?
Open source community split over 'corporate' welfare for critical dev tools
If you're coming from wpf and friends I can really recommend razor pages or blazor. Though razor pages are probably good enough especially if you are fine with running a server.

The web is complex, but only as much as you choose it to be.

I would also stick with running a lot of the calculations server side. Unless you really need the client interaction.
Broadly agree but how easy is it for Rosetta to prove to itself that these flags aren't used somewhere in the code path?
This is a bad name as Crystals-Dilithium is a recently standardized post-quantum signature scheme. Bound to cause confusion.

I would have never called them friends in the first place. I have a strict line between friends and acquaintances.

Friends are those relationships which I made during childhood. I still keep those relationships up. We have a much stronger bond through the stuff we have been through together.

I think friendship needs very strong loyality which is just not given in a normal work environment. Eg I’d never lie in court for my acquaintances, but I have certainly for my friends.
> [the site] had satisfied the authorities that it had the infrastructure, equipment and services for horizontal space launches.

Same as any other airport that can accomodate a 747? You can call it a "horizontal space launch" to make it sound important, but it's basically just a plane taking off?
This is yet another example of how f*ked up the US is. People are punished for being decent parents while lunatics still have the right to own guns. Land of the free indeed.
I am on a side which sometimes offend, mostly in non-technical details.
As you don't see/hear a person, you can't adjust your expressions in real-time (and add some non-verbal layer as well). Then out of the blue your peer becomes offended by something you even did not mean - with chats/e-mails people often add missing nuances of the communication. And that extra layer is combination of their current mood, some believe or disbelieve in people, and your imagination about you.

Sometimes generated confusion is too unexpected and painful for both, so I prefer to limit online discussions to work stuff.
Implicit phrasing in the article suggests guests cannot enable the flag at all, as it's a CPU mode change. It might be important to bare metal OS writers though, hopefully those teams have already reverse engineered the method or are kindly answered by the manufacturer.
ASX drops plan to replace CHESS with blockchain, writes off AUD $250M
I know it’s probably not how many developers typically roll, but since working fully remote and living more in chat tools I’ve started to throw emoji around hard.

Originally the inspiration came from a consultant I worked with pre-pandemic who was very liberal with emoji. At first I wasn’t a fan but after a while he wore me down

It’s a simply way to add that missing tone back into a non-verbal message and given the changes in work environment that we’ve all been through, plus a younger generation coming through, emoji usage is definitely “professional” enough for the workplace.

I agree with the parent that speaking to a professional is probably a good idea, but you could also try to jazz up your comms. It can be fun!

If it adds value, I think it's a good idea. But less is more, so right now I'm not inclined to add more to our CI/CD pipeline.

In the future our application will need to be able to run on mobile devices. Then I think I want to test it on a recent iPad, iPhone and Android device. We'll probably be using one of the tools you mentioned.
I love this comment. Really makes me think about what I should build with whom.
To be fair, the special case of the Turing test where participants only discuss recent sporting events seems substantially simpler than the general one. I'm not totally convinced you need GPT-3 level capabilities.
Sure, but designing those flags into the hardware has to come at a cost. Maybe it's simple and cheap enough that it doesn't matter.
Better article at https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33636607
It doesn't address the root of the issue though, which are we've created a society that has normalized crime, cheating and corruption. You shouldn't trust most people, let alone believe without any research that crypto exchanges have your best interests in mind.
When I went to university, I was going there in rollers, there was a nice slope where I could go relatively fast, in the morning, almost no traffic, good visibility, relatively smooth surface. All it took was a small peeble to launch me a few meters (tens?) flying away. The fall was much more impressive than the damage, I consider myself lucky and was basically the last time I used them. I realized how dangerous it was in comparison to just biking.

> Consequentialism says that the ends justify the means. They do not.

Well, I disagree with that in the absolute sense, which might be where we differ? If we could accurately foresee the ends of some action lead to more people being better off, it would be moral to take that action. And I think the fact that "the ends don't justify the means" is such a slogan in our world, said as if it's obviously true, is ridiculous.

(And despite you continuously saying this is philosophy 101, I don't think the generally accepted view among philosophers is that utilitarianism is wrong, is it?)

FWIW I think you're right in a practical sense though. If you're having to justify immoral actions by their "ends", you're making a huge mistake, and almost certainly only doing it because you wanted to do that immoral thing anyway. Humans are notoriously bad at prediction and notoriously good at rationalization.
I disagree, it takes lots of time but it is possible.

Personal example: I have an electronics engineering degree that was 1 semester short of a physics degree, so I learned quantum mechanics, electromagnetic field theory, transistors, and how to create a CPU (I even created a CPU out of simple gates and way too much wire wrapping). I love computer software, so I learned assembly, how to write compilers and operating systems, and libraries. I have configured network hardware and written network software at various levels. I've also used CSS and implemented UI/UX. I've written code in many programming languages, including JavaScript, Python, C, C++, Java, Ruby, Rust, Common Lisp, and Scheme. I eventually got a Computer Science degree as well.

None of these things are magic, and the info is relatively easy to get. You simply have to keep learning and be willing to try new things. It can be fun, too.

Yes, today it can be helpful to specialize at any particular time in your life. But I think it's best to use that as a launching pad to branch out.
> Does anyone really think it’s appropriate to pay $10 a week for a photo editing app?

Apparently yes, otherwise it would have just been a failed experiment and revert back to $X/month

Even if they charged $100/week I don't see how it makes them a bad actor. If the pricing/cancellation policies are deceptive then sure, but that is irrelevant to the price.
Now I'm waiting for Effective Ventures Foundation (Centre for Effective Altruism) to voluntarily return all donations made by SBF or FTX share-holders.

In Italy it's fairly common for people of the same sex to greet each other with two kisses on the cheeks or hug each other. Holding hands has become kind of taboo but I don't really see the behavior of the men in those picture as inherently gay. I agree with the article that it's sad that this closeness has gone away, but it's kind of a self-inflicted problem. Men should learn not to be this homophobic and accept a bit of sane homoeroticism into their straight friendships.
>>WITCH salaries are a joke

Getting a job in India is not a joke. And that's saying something.

Most poor people in India, are not the same poor you see in the USA. Many people who make it to WITCH companies are likely succeeding despite all odds, and
are starting their career at such companies, while they can get trained, and work on projects and later use the experience to do some thing good on the longer run. Several lucky also get overseas travel opportunities many even settle outside India.

Sure things are way less than perfect. And if you come from a rich family do not join a WITCH. You can either wait out for a better job, or may be go overseas for studies or just try to immigrate to some western lands.

Most people complaining about WITCH companies are typically from a background which is already better off. And they generally find such companies to be downgrade from their current social class. The remainder do just fine.
That is a very compassionate comment.Thank you!. It is such a sad thing to make sweeping generalizations, I know of many ex employees of these organizations in FAANG, startups. Agreed that the ratio of great technical talent may be small, these companies have 300k employees, a vast majority is maintaining a legacy application that is keeping a business alive somewhere or processing someone's health insurance claim or something important thereof. You will find some really smart people doing products like Finacle, a well adopted core-banking software.
What was done was bad and than talking of bad practices (so many exposed buckets in AWS, miners using compromised EC2 instances from github repos) a vast majority of the discussion seems to be sweeping generalizations of how every single person employed in these companies are!

Kalevala is a pretty extraordinary text. If you’re looking for an epub of the same translation I put one together for SE last year.[1] The Crawford translation was the most lyrical I could find.

It’s also worth reading up on Lönnrot’s linguistic / ethnological expeditions that he made to compile the text.[2]

that's very different from saying that biography can improve or disprove something! As a matter of facts, Nietzsche writes here about moral purpose of philosophy. "Autobiography" here is a trick; confirming that you must separate author life from texts. In German, Nietzsche uses the word "mémoires", which are an author own recollections of experiences. The "Auto" part in the translations, coming from the Greek autòs, meaning self, is the key part here. A description of Nietzsche's sickness made by someone else is hardly an autobiography.
Well, try that in a diesel, you'll be waiting 20 minutes before any hot air starts coming out and blowing on the window. I've had several and they were all a nightmare in winter, literally no warm air for ages unless you started driving, but how can you start driving with 3 inches of snow on the window.

(but yes, now I have a car with an electric heated front window and it's the best thing ever)
You're misunderstanding the action of the medication and the defect in the brain of adhd. Adhd is an abnormal density of dopamine transporter.

Receptor density might increase, but that's negligible in the system compared to the starting density of transporters at therapeutic doses.

EUCs do not seem like a very good alternative to the OneWheel. I think a huge draw to OneWheel is that it looks like a skateboard, but has one big wheel so it handles most terrain without trouble, helping to avoid the pebble paranoia you usually develop riding on a normal skateboard.

I did find the Trotter MAGWheel T3 as an alternative, but it reviews badly from its "prototype without any polish" experience in use.

It sucks that there seemingly does not exist a good alternative to OneWheel, other than changing to a different product category entirely. I wish we can get to see some true competition in the one-wheeled skateboard category soon.
If you've never programmed in a lower-level language before, then it's a new skill that you have to build from the ground-up. Just keep practicising and you'll get better quickly - it's not that hard.
Kalevala is a weird and amazing work. It is somewhat disjoint since it is assembled from various oral traditional and made into a single "epic" narrative by Elias Lönnrot. Scholars are still arguing about how much of the writing is Lönnrot himself and how much is his sources.

The Kullervo cycle is a particulary harrowing sequence, which inspired Tolkien to write his own version of the story in English.
Figuring out that a number is composite is sometimes a lot easier than actually factoring it (see RSA encryption).
Yes -- among other reasons, none of them related to quality. WITCH companies are notorious for this. Accenture, for example, boasted similarly ginormous numbers for a contract with the NHS (11 bn GBP), which never produced any working software before being scrapped after several years.
> On some linux environments I can't take for granted that I will see an image preview in the file picker, so there is that.

That is indeed a jarring and annoying limitation! I'd count that as likewise failing to meet reasonable minimum expectations.

I don't really have some complete, ideal feature comparison in mind. If you take an experienced, dedicated (that is, not having used other computing environments regularly for many years) user of macOS and an experienced, dedicated user of Plasma and sit them down at each other's computers, both might reasonably feel like on balance, things are missing and the experience is lacking.

I have strong intuitions about what parts of a whole desktop computer system are 'operating system features' or part of 'the desktop environment'. But the reality is that the demarcation (and whether one cares about it) between is cultural. My view of that is shaped by my own experience and preferences.

Still, the impression is overwhelming when one comes to macOS as a power user from elsewhere that lots of the basics are missing, and that the majority of Apple's efforts go into the integration of applications that sit on top the core operating system and desktop environment rather than the software that comprises those things. That impression is made much more grating by macOS high reputation as well-designed and something that 'just works out of the box'.

For me, at least, some of the third-party applications which add back in macOS' missing features just irritate me more. Consider what has to be done to disable mouse acceleration on macOS, for example. Why does that OS care so little for flexibility or accommodating common use cases that a precarious driver hack which intercepts my mouse input events and relays them to the operating system as tablet presses or some crap is necessary for such basic configuration as linear mouse movement? Should I be grateful that I can pay for the privilege of a workaround that Apple will almost certainly break in some future OS update? And what about the depressing process of discovering, first, that none of the still-documented `defaults write` secret config changes work, and neither do any of the other third-party drivers or utilities? Often, the bit of missing functionality comes with its own miserable journey of discovery. The Plentycom developer is great, SteerMouse is brilliant and I'm glad they figured out a way. But nothing about that situation leaves me with a positive impression of macOS itself!
I can imagine the setup for the user to "read it first before deciding" with that message (but they're missing a CTA after you've read it, or does that only come up when you return to another page and haven't cleared your cookies?), but is there actual data on an interstitial increasing time on page and other metrics by more than the time it takes to click on the close-button (or link in this case)?
>The problem is that swarms of robots can be used for destructive purposes.

Well, toxic chemical agents can also be used as weapon on human civil, and — sadly — it was actually used that way. Plus even when you use them for farming, you still have pollution that will erode biodiversity, human health, and other sustainable environment negative impacts.

Not to say that robot swarm is necessarily a perfect green solution. You still have to build them and feed them with energy, so even if the robot would be exempt of undesirable side effect on local operational site, the global impact would most likely include plants in their lifecycle.
