Ok thanks, that is the assumption part. Very important indeed.

I will try my luck on the "definition part" myself: According to Wiktionary, To Scale =

1. To climb to the top of : This upper movement looks like scaling toward "Wisdom/enlightenment" to me. (not very "Poppers")

2. To tolerate significant increases in throughput or other potentially limiting factors : The one is more like "Management" (as in KM)

3.To weigh, measure or grade according to a scale or system : here it is the "Value" aspect. what is valuable knowledge?

4. To change the size of something whilst maintaining proportion: The size is the easiest angle. I don't know how "maintaining proportion" would translate here.

At the personal level, that is one the biggest problem of "scaling knowledge" right there ! We just can't help "growing" it in article after article, because those ideas just keep coming to us. We need sometimes to step back and communicate the "meta". Not just the assumptions but also the definitions.

> Was I missing something? Is there a way to let Forth keep track of where on the stack "foo" lives if it is needed several times in a subroutine instead of always shuffling the stack or counting the elements on it?

I'm not a Forth novice, much less an expert, but my impression is that the answer is that if you spend much time thinking about the location of variables, then you're "doing it wrong"—to steal the phrase, trying to write C in Forth, rather than to write Forth. My understanding is that the emphasis is on building highly domain-specific languages out of many small words, each of which is re-factored so much that it never needs to keep much track of any, or much, shuffling of variables on the stack.

I've never been able to distinguish bad from good poetry. Over the years I've asked many people (including teachers) to explain it to me and they cannot. Can you? I would really enjoy understanding.

To address your criticism: To be relatable poetry must be cliched, as it is about the human experience. That is as cliche as it gets: it is about things everyone knows.

Agree on all except the last sentence: As I understand it, on the more modern mainframes there's one big ole SQL database in normal form with joins and transactions, but on others there's a huge bunch of applications (usually written in COBOL) that handle data in fixed-field files, predating normal form, joins, and transactions.

If they read something they don't like, it's the fault of the platform. It couldn't possibly be that they should take responsibility for their own offence and close the tab or log out of the service.

Or even, maybe, engage in self reflection to try and deal with their feelings and move on.

Imagine you commit to buying $100 on each of date A, B, and C. On A, the price is $10/share. You buy 10 shares. On B, it’s $100/sh. You buy 1 share. On C, it’s $1/sh. You buy 100 shares. You have 111 shares at a cost-basis of $300 (or $2.70/share).

The time-weighted average price was $37/share.

DCA is a way to force yourself to make purchases at a variety of prices and times. (How likely is it with a single-purchase strategy that you'd own 111 shares at $2.70/sh of a stock that charted $10->$100->$1? How would you feel when you saw your $300 investment go to $111 in value? DCA takes a lot of that psychological pressure off and is amenable to decide-once and automate.)

> Apple is not a dive computer company. They sell computers. Other dive computer brands also sell computers, but these are not general purpose.

Apple is not a [phone|watch|camera] company. They sell computers.

That's what people said at every single new product that's not in their classic computer product line. Turns out you can get pretty good at products outside your initial niche, and for most people it will be more than good enough.

If you ask most regular people to classify Apple they would probably say "phone company", and by revenue share they would be correct. There's a reason they renamed themselves from "Apple Computers Inc." to just Apple.
Oh if you have a database already and want to expose it, then yeah, it does make sense to go with the API adapter bolted onto it.

If you're starting from scratch (as the post is, since PostgreSQL is advertised as part of the solution), then you have to manually create the DB schema. I would argue that a Node developer would find it easier to do that in Prisma, or a Django developer in Django ORM, than to do raw CREATE TABLE queries manually.

> Wut? How does free speech infringe on free speech, exactly?

I think the idea is that you don't really have free speech is some group of people are afraid to speak, which is what you have when it's not well moderated.

It's, I think, the argument in the center of "cancel culture is bad for free speech". Cancel culture don't stop people before they talk, and don't legally condemn anyone, but they force some people to not say what they have on their mind because the consequences will be unpleasant for them.
In fact, I would even say that people who are critical against cancel culture but are also arguing that free speech should not be moderated are just hypocritical: cancel culture is what you get (amongst other things) when there is no "moderation".

It's nice to see aggregation and curation efforts like this!

It would be useful if the site offered a more compact view and an option for more items per page or "infinite scrolling" (the loading of more results after scrolling past a threshold). Within experiences like these where browsing is the primary mechanism of discovery, it's a positive UX feature to decrease the need for repeatedly clicking/tapping/etc. in order to continue to browse.

Platforms should have the right to ban your hate speech. But governments should not. I prefer that social media companies handle this because it directly affects their bottom line. Nazism, racism and Andrew Tate are banned because they are bad for business.

> Personally, I'd be thrilled to trade off speed of compilation for distribution simplicity!

Technologies like Docker have made distribution a lot easier. I haven't used tools like chruby or rbenv since 2014 when I started using Docker because Docker manages your app's runtime environment. You pull down your built image on your server and run it. There's no complication, sprawling of version managers or surprises.

Personally I think having a fast dev feedback loop is critically important. It's something you experience hundreds of times a day as you're developing your project.
The model can be taught what "bad hands" look like by feeding it some samples of that with the "bad hands" tag. And existing image archives do have pictures tagged things like "bad hands" and "bad anatomy" because actual artists do draw things wrong sometimes.

I imagine that on the long term people will start making archives of AI mistakes and train the AI on those to try to make them less common.

I don't remember a due process being followed for most of those ISIS accounts being banned. I don't remember the social networks restricting their bans to those people that had been convicted of illegal communications.

And yet I supported that move. I understood that the network would not want that sort of crap on its airwaves, and that might see a business interest in not having its platform associated with that movement, and want to eliminate the ability of that movement to use their platforms to further their aims.

As much as one might want to reach for "illegality" is some clearcut dividing line, that simply doesn't apply here. Most of us supported accounts getting banned with no due process, no oversight, or anything - when it was violent revolutionary religious politics that we disagreed with.

If you look at any shareholder lawsuits - it's pretty clear what the obligation means, what you get sued for, and what you'll lose a lawsuit over.

The vast majority of Apple shares outstanding aren't owned by people who want to turn it into the world police or a charity. They want a return on their investment - not to turn their investment into a charitable donation to make the world a better place.

If you wanted to invest in charities - there's better options than owning stocks...

It really isn't, all terms of service contain a line that effectively allows them to take down anything they like under the guise of distasteful et al.

What I don't get here is that this really is only about beef. Chicken and Pork isn't actually that bad for the environment as they are very efficient production wise.

So if you want eat a burger and don't feel bad, just eat a pork or chicken burger and you should be fine.

For me, Beyond Meat was pretty terrible when I tried it. Maybe if you put it in burger with many other things its not as bad.
The latest changes, of which there have been many iterations, are generally well-intentioned but biased to those who have the ear of Government. Child safety advocates, celebrities, age-verification providers, newspaper publishers and Big Tech are the ones the many Ministers have listened to. The turnover of Ministers has been high but not those lobbying. Privacy and human rights advocates and innovators have not had a fair hearing.

Child safety folks are happy for now, but naive. Celebrities are fountains of wisdom so that's all good. The age-verification and trust-washing industry are waiting for their payback. "Recognised" journalism gets protected. And Big Tech is all for it; compliance falls much hard on challengers.

To be fair the dropping yesterday of the "legal but harmful" provisions for adults is finally showing there is some hope for sanity. Although paradoxically this will likely speed and increase the prevalence of a gated UK splinternet; as it will be become required to age-gate children across all (user-to-user and search) services.
Freedom of speech isn't freedom from being told en mass to "shut up" and being made to move along somewhere else (or everyone else blocking or moving elsewhere away from you)

Rightly so. Freedom of speech isn't freedom of reach.
I don’t see how it’s an infringement of free speech at all.

A companies TOS form a contract between the user and the company, this law is just requires that companies follow what’s written in a contract they will fully entered into.

To claim that this is an infringement of speech is to claim that there’s no situation where a court can force someone to perform, as required by a contract they entered into. In other words, it’s to say that any court enforcing a civil contract is defacto infringing upon that persons right to free speech. Clearly that’s ridiculous because it would totally undermine the value of any signed contract.
It's already written in all ToS.
Concise Electronics for Geeks
The thing about democracies is they are resilient but appear resilient. Autocracies are fragile but appear resilient. This is because democracies have open debate about policy, and criticism is an integral part of the system. This disagreement appears chaotic but actually helps the end product of things like legislation work better. Autocracies, on the other hand, discourage open discussion of policy, which creates a veneer of unity, but makes the end product worse.

> All in all I hate it because the prompts I see are things like "cyberpunk forest by Salvador Dali". You've got a tool that gives you the power of Gandalf and you prompt that?

That's one of the better prompts I've seen. Dissimilar but really strong aesthetic styles a skilled human could mesh pretty well, interesting images and shows up the strengths (some of the forests are really good, and the ones without trees are pleasantly foresty nevertheless) and weaknesses (it fails completely on 'cyberpunk' and 'Dali' once you start adding other parameters that influence the visual style) of the model.

Plus I'd be much more likely to end up with a calendar of "cyberpunk forest by Salvador Dali" images on my wall than "Mickey Mouse in a tuxedo with a cigar"
> Until some judge decides such a clause is legally void and must be disregarded, since otherwise it would turn the legislation into a dead letter

It's not a judge's job to stop legislation turning into a dead letter if it's incompetently drafted, which this is.

This bill is going to go down hard in judicial review, because the people writing it and the lobbyists arguing for it are cretins.

That's just an absurd analogy.

On the second point, I agree, if in person I wouldn't make such a statement in that way because reactions are immediate and you're within immediate awkwardness. But on the internet, you read a statement and then you will emotionally react, but can then go research more, ponder, deliberate and choose whether you respond emotionally, matter-of-factly, not at all, etc. I think that's great and in a sense encourages some more provocative honesty that we dance around in the flesh.
I don't care about offense. What I care about is lying. If someone distributes provable untruths, that should be legally actionable -- if not by government, then in civil court by the people harmed by the lies.

Would you consider personal insults to be the recipient's problem too? They're offended by it, but they could just not listen to it.

I'm guessing much of insults also isn't in the message itself, but in the publicity of the message. You thinking that I'm an idiot is one thing, you telling me in private that you do is another, and you telling everyone that you think I'm an idiot is another one.
