>Many people only require about 1.5 to 1.8 litres a day, lower than the two litres typically recommended, the research suggests.

Of all the overzealous health advice we give this one seems pretty minor. The article is saying that we "require" six glasses. The article also says there is no downside to your health for drinking more.
> Harder to see reasons past 2038 back in 1970

I still find myself confused at this one. Did people in 1970s not imagine that any particular program or database would "survive" for 30+ years? Was the expectation that programs written in the future could set the epoch to a later date?

Now that I think about it, I also find it interesting that the epoch date isn't configurable in any system that I'm aware of.
Ok. The irony. Actually, after 20+ years in the tech industry, I will say this:

Your beloved corporations don't have a metric called “creativity”, they have a bottom line, and she has all the powers.

I am an artist by education and can confirm that creativity is overrated, the processes that artist follows and repetition towards a given goal deliver the results.

Whatever feelings or ideas you have, the actual craft is the medium in which you will deliver.

Reducing *The Path* to text input is not an artistic or craftsmanship process.

There is no creativity involved. May be, someone with more knowledge about the real process and broader visual culture will make more aesthetically right choices. But this can be automated too.

This is not a “tool”, like Photoshop. This is something else.
And all of you know this.

More than 50 percent of frontend code is boilerplate. CRUD apps follow similar logic.
Why not automate this repetitive processes first?

No. Corporations are starting the automation from the lowest risk crowd—the digital artists, they have low representation, no coherent community and are always ready to sell themselves for pennies.

Now they will compete with the machines.
And your time in this battle will come. Soon.
I think GP was looking for "pediatrician" or "oncologist".
How is that dangerously close to dehumanizing?
The findings may validate the feelings of anyone oppressed or suffering long-term deprivation, but what does it really mean for their descendants? For example, what were the long-term effects, not just for black Americans, but for survivors of the Irish Potato Famine or the Holocaust? And if the effects were negligible for these latter two groups, what does that mean for the former?

Considering most humans in most places at most times lived in deprived circumstances, I wouldn't jump to conclusions just yet on the nature of Schmitz et al.'s findings. Remember their findings 'could be linked,' not 'are linked.'
Why would you give up your 3 month severance to come back for 80hr work weeks for the same salary with the risk of getting fired at any moment based on a weekly screenshot of 'salient' code and then only getting 1 month severance?

Maybe I misread the original point of the post, but I read it as "the anti-social component is the motivator".

Of course it's ... not good! Stealing is generally pretty bad, all things considered! But this idea that there are some deep psychological flaws that cause this behavior does not, I believe, represent a primary motivator for a significant portion of these acts.

Ahah, you're lucky if Phase II never happened.

Usually it's planned to build on whatever foundations were built in Phase I. But by the time you actually get to Phase II, it's morphed into something radically different and incompatible with Phase I. So you have to tear apart and rebuild all the previous work as well as you can while simultaneously trying to build the new stuff - on a tighter deadline because you're already over budget and time.

And if you don't burnout, the only thing you have to look forward to is a new Phase III, which is somehow even more unfeasible.

I wouldn't auto update from AUR but you can easily download a snapshot of the PKGBUILD of particular software you want from the Arch website and verify that it isn't doing anything questionable (and fix it if it is) then build it yourself. It is a simple format and easy to review, it is rare to see patches or non-obvious build steps. Personally, I have a dedicated aur user with some aliases that grab a URL from a fifo and print it, download, and extract. There are also often packages that pull the latest version from git and can be easily updated to use release branches if you want. Because of the focus on upstreaming fixes rather than keeping patches you can also just build outside the package system and install to /usr/local and you will still benefit from the project likely having received patches to build on Arch (if they don't test it themselves). Even if not yet fixed upstream, any random issue you encounter usually already has a bug filed by an Arch user unless you are extremely quick about updating.

It's a rather neat environment actually - Firefox itself shipped with all the development tools and means to sync apps to the device. I wrote a simple IRC client for the Nokia 8110 4G, which has its very own hacking community (called Banana Hackers) and it was great fun.

However as those devices aren't that powerful, you really don't want it spend a lot of time deal with remote content/media.

That's all, felt like the right place to share this thought.
Copper salts are green. The copper will only give up an electron and make itself available to form salts with the ions in the potato at the positive electrode. This should also work with anything else conductive, you'd probably be able to tell doing this in a glass of salt water provided that the water is still enough.

For learning assembly, usually you learn the syntax for your assembler. The rest of it (the majority of it) is then learning what instructions are available on your platform.

I liked http://rayseyfarth.com/asm/ as an intro to both. I'd already had a class on computer architecture that did assembly before that, though.

Once you get going with that, you can download and read the Intel or AMD programmers manuals. Of course, this assumes x86_64.

> It's not fair to blame Elon for a few marketing firms telling all of their clients to stop advertising on Twitter because they don't like Elon.

Uh, people in the ad industry for the most part don’t give a fuck about political or personal views, nearly all the concerns about placement with publishers revolve around brand safety, ease of use and success rates.

It’s absolutely fair to say that Elons decisions have made Twitter very unattractive to both brands and agencies, which will take years to build trust back.
Are you kidding? The “sales tax loophole” just supports my point, if it was just smaller businesses they would’ve gone on forever.
This assumes no one is trying to make money. In practice, this is virtually never the case.

If you have a government with a billion people in it, but none of them are allowed to do anything with investments or even hold/have 'extra' jobs while serving society, you reduce or remove the problem all the same.

A teeny tiny government with 1 person in it can still mess with investments on a global scale all the same if they are allowed to do so. It 'fixes' nothing.

The size and scope of a government is not what makes bad performers perform badly. It's bad people combined with bad policies. How bad is a different topic (there is no absolute 'badness', but there are definitely differences).

Mostly, except pretrial detention for minor crimes is unfortunately still not that uncommon in Europe.

The lack of bail often makes this worse, a weird obsession with “fairness” forces us to continue locking up people with sufficient assets to insure against absconding. Poor people can’t afford bail? Better make everyone else suffer too.

Or international arbitrage. Lots of stuff sold cheaper in USA than other places. Even stuff like a big bottle of ibuprofen or allergy pills are much more expensive in Canada.

While arbitraging deodorant sounds silly, I have bought EU roll-on deodorants online before because they're not much of a thing in North America. And they don't melt into a mess in a hot car.

Deodorants are hardly a thing in SE Asia, partly because of biology/genetic differences: https://www.nytimes.com/2018/02/02/business/china-consumers-...
“Once in the dear dead days beyond recall, an out-of-town visitor was being shown the wonders of the New York financial district. When the party arrived at the Battery, one of his guides indicated some handsome ships riding at anchor. He said, ‘Look, those are the bankers’ and brokers’ yachts.’

‘Where are the customers’ yachts?’ asked the naive visitor.”
> The cartoonist Richard Guindon has a famous quote: “writing is nature’s way of letting you know how sloppy your thinking is.” You might have an impression that you understand something well, but that sense of clarity is often an illusion, and when you go to explicitly capture your understanding in a document, you discover that you didn’t understand things as well as you thought. There’s nowhere to hide in your own document.

Coding is natures way of showing how sloppy your thinking is, not writing natural language text. It is really easy to hide sloppy thinking behind natural language, otherwise there would be a lot of overlap between great writers and great coders, but there doesn't seem to be much correlation there at all. Coders tend to be precise with their language, but most people prefer to read imprecise sentences so you easily gravitate towards imprecise language if you try to practice writing.
Maybe I'm just not in with the cool kids but it feels like social media in general is just kind of dying in a lot of circles, outside of content platforms like YouTube and TikTok at least. Direct group chats via Discord, Telegram, Signal, etc are the main ways of communicating and beyond those do you really need - or have any desire - to communicate with random strangers?

It seems the like vanity and excitement of the early internet is dying out and more normal social circles are being established.
Maybe don't take someone running for Attorney General who wants you to know crime is out of control unless you elect them at their word alone.
That's short-sighted and poor engineering. You need your service to be able to keep going no matter what any single vendor does. Never intentionally create a single point of failure like that.
I can’t help but think this is common sense. When a ketchup bottle is almost empty, you don’t have the seal to ensure it comes out smoothly, so the air catches it which is moving at a higher rate of speed, and subsequently goes all over the place due to the unrestricted inside pressure.

When I cut the cards, I let you glimpse a few different faces. You conclude the deck contains 52 different cards (No. 1—Pattern recognition). You think you’ve made a choice, just as when you choose between two candidates preselected by entrenched political parties (No. 7—Choice is not freedom)."

It may still be democracy, but the task of the people isn't to pick the best or most desirable policy/candidate/etc. It's to pick from the presented selections. If all choices are bad, nothing good will come of it no matter what you call it. Add an option for "None of the above/Do-over" and I'll have more faith in democracy.
If the PPA is run by the project then you don't need to trust someone else. Sometimes AUR packages are created by a developer for the project but since you aren't trusting a particular URL that is run by the project it is possible that that will change later without you noticing if you are auto updating from AUR.

Hi, thanks for the question! I realize I pushed this with some important details missing.

As a first objective I'd like to get Chatter Net nodes to be able to consume from the Fediverse. The (small) challenge is that posts in the Fediverse are unsigned, whereas what makes Chatter Net tick is really just adding signatures to Activity Stream objects. How this could work then is that a Chatter Net user (or server) could pull posts from the Fediverse. That user (or server) could then emit an "view" message on that post and sign that message. Now that message has an "origin" within Chatter Net allowing others to trust it and share it. Many accounts can share the same post. In fact they just sign the CID of the contents of the post, so the post itself could be retrieved from an external server.

The more challenging objective is to get the Fediverse to hear about what's going on in Chatter Net. Chatter Net servers could implement the Activity Pub server-to-server protocol. But other Fediverse servers would need to trust the contents coming from a Chatter Net server, and without moderation this would be complicated.

If this project picks up some steam I am hopeful others will have good ideas on how to address these issues.
So on the one side I see news reports of dozens of cases of serial shoplifting offenders out on the streets, and the NYC DA informing his staff and letting the public know that if you steal less than $500 you will not go to jail.

But you're claiming that the DA actually intended to send them to jail. So he was baiting them to commit the crime? I don't buy it.

And you're claiming that his prosecutors have no discretion in prosecuting these cases? I don't buy it, but if you have some references to support that claim, other than word of mouth, I'm all ears.

I can't find precisely what the amendment was and when it took effect, but the subject of the article was a surge in retail theft over several years, so if you're talking about some changes in the past year, then maybe we will be able to see some effects in the next year.
You’re claiming Amazon has zero liability? Then why does Amazon employ people to deal with this problem?
That’s not how I read it. They said:

> Spending 1200+ on a iPhone is really painful but I am ok with it if I must.

OP then went on to describe scenarios the iPhone can actually do. And you don’t need to spend $1,200 to do it. The cheaper iPhones do it fine too.

For example, you can use external keyboards with them. And external displays[1]. Couple those with a rich set of remote apps (SSH, Mosh, RDP, VNC, etc), and you can get a lot done.

Using actors in news stories is pretty standard when the interviewee does not want to appear on camera, or use their own voice.

There's a long history of this kind of masking:

- Backlighting, with the face in deep shadow. Possibly with the original interviewee or an actor.

- Voice-Masking with some kind of voice-changer

- Using a voice-actor to say the words.

I would see this as the next evolution of this process.

So long as The actor being portrayed has given their consent to do this (they were hired for this specific job), and the facial expressions/behaviors are genuinely recreated I don't see any ethical or moral issues.
That’s a business continuity risk. Generally you want to abstract the business logic from infrastructure (code in a separate system or in escrow).
Eh, fine-tuning seems to work well enough that it can be added back in after.

Though, previous fine-tunings/textual inversions won’t work since the CLIP encoder has been replaced too. I’d be interested in knowing if it needs to be retrained too for this case.

The first result on Amazon searching “men’s deodorant” is 4 for $15.66 [0] so less than $4 per stick.

Amazon knows that the deodorant it’s selling is not discontinued or clearance. It knows Old Spice isn’t giving some mom and pop a better wholesale deal than the world’s largest retailer either. There’s no legit reason for there to be “other sellers” for that product, or really most any product it itself sells.
If we're gonna assume vaccinated/not vaccinated defines their viewpoint, then around 1 in 3 people is a pretty massive group to flippantly dismiss like that.
> Most of the comments here are ignoring the difference between regular old shoplifting and the trend driving the increase discussed in the article, which they're referring to as "organized retail crime".

I guess, but conversely I'd argue that organized retail theft has been around pretty much as long as supply chains have existed. That's the mob's bread and butter. The phrase "riding shotgun" is in common use. Perhaps mass shoplifting from the store is a new tactic, but personally I look at this situation and ask, "what has changed"?

For one, we've sort of collectively realized how terrible modern jails are (Rikers anyone?). And that's good.

A second conclusion I draw is that retail stores have been gutted... walmart-ized... every ounce of efficiency wrung out of them. Have you ever been to one of these massive retail outlets and had trouble finding anyone that works there? A few months ago everyone was clutching pearls about some 150 yd stretch of train track in LA that was continually being robbed... and I can make a wild guess that this was the result of 1) skeleton crews, 2) minimal security on the ground and 3) shipping containers that are running with sub-standard defense mechanisms because they're simply too much work (slows down loading, probably break a lot, etc.).

Yes organized crime should be punished, but these companies seem to throw up they're hands and say "Gee golly, we have no idea why $20 million dollars of merchandise watched by 5 overworked, low wage employees and 1 loss prevention officer is such a target! It's a mystery!"

I don't hate mega corporations (ok maybe a little), but they definitely have a hand in creating this situation. And it's rarely commented upon when discussing the recent rise in shoplifting.

(Edit: I forgot my favorite shoplifting fact... up until recently, reports showed that both shoplifting and wage theft "cost the economy" around $40 billion per year. Comparing prosecution rates of the two crimes is left as an exercise for the reader.)
So does this only work with copper wires then?
The headline is still accurate, as stopping SEC inquiry in crypto would have the same effect.
No, you do not have to trust the source when bootstrapping a client. The proof of energy needed to construct the blockchain is what ensures that the copy you receive is likely to be a held as the consensus, since it would be prohibitively expensive to have multiple versions. Without an energy expenditure, the source could fabricate the entire blockchain just to attack you.
What would be the upside? They are already fairly powerless in the opposition and this would be a huge scandal

> having the person is released same day, it’s essentially the same as not prosecuting them

No, it's called not imprisoning someone who isn't an imminent threat for weeks or months without a trial while they're waiting for one.

Reform the court system to get to trial faster if you want a change, in the meantime cash bail is an affront to everyone's rights.
> Getting a low-level criminal or junkie off the street, alive, is worth a lot.

Off the street and on to Riker's Island. A jail so dangerous that it has a high likelihood of being put into federal receivership in the next year. People are safer on the street. Full stop.
