s/continuation/hard fork/

Neovim is a hard fork, not a continuation. Vim is still being developed by Bram and other contributors, and has a lot of the same functionality now with different API surfaces. Questionable choices by both development groups (but, IMO, mostly from the initial arrogance of the neovim developers) are increasing the gap to the point where, in a couple of years, I do not expect there to be meaningful compatibility between them.

A lot of people don’t like Vimscript, but I personally find the Lua integrations which neovim has to be harder to use because the language isn’t built around the editor, it requires bridging, and there’s a definite impedance mismatch involved.

For me, without an equivalent of `gvim`/`MacVim`, neovim is a non-starter. The OS-level integration is important, and none of the various neovim GUIs that exist are nearly as good as the original `gvim` for X or Windows or MacVim for macOS.
Thanks. I'm just wondering why the example didn't show this extension method. It seems more idiomatic to just call it on the receiver instead of passing a parameter.
Call it what you want. Russia is switching from export to internal consumption. Getting something like 30 years mortgage on house, was unheard of until recently. If West can run quantitative easing for 15 years, why not Russia?
Does TikTok follow you around the web to a similar extent as Facebook?

AFAIK, the regulation doesn’t cover only Meta. If forcing acceptance of tracking to use the service is illegal for Meta to do, then it’s also illegal for TikTok.
> The flip side is that it's tricky to have an enjoyable life on no money. Not impossible, but difficult.

Enjoyable/not enjoyable isn't a binary--it's a spectrum. I think we can agree that both options (working a minimum-wage job and having almost no money, and having literally no money but having freedom) are pretty far toward the "not enjoyable" side of things. My point is that American capitalism has reduced wages so far that having no money is the more enjoyable option.

> The ultimatum game tries to capture that: there are both benefits and disadvantages to rejecting the bargain. The simplified game basically says they're a wash, which isn't true but can be informative anyway.

No, it is not informative, it's misleading. The part that they leave out--the value of the worker's time, efforts, etc.--is so important that without it, the ultimatum game is completely invalid. This cannot be overstated. The ultimatum game actually gives you wrong information. And the ultimatum game is actually extremely offensive. You're literally devaluing people's lives to zero.

> So I don't think rejecting the offer is the only reasonable reaction. You have to figure out what kind of life you'd enjoy. There are ways to do it, but some options (like having children) are nearly closed off.

I don't think you're understanding the situation. Working a minimum-wage in Tennessee doesn't open up any options of any importance to the average person. Your example of having children highlights the absurdity of your argument: $1200/mo is not enough money to have a child in a fiscally responsible way. If you do make the mistake of having a child when your options are not working or working a minimum-wage job, not working is clearly the better option: at least that way you can provide childcare instead of abandoning your child for 40+ hours/week.

Keep in mind that if you have no other support system, you're literally homeless either way. With roommates, you might actually be able to afford a room for $1200/mo, but that leaves you no money for, you know, food, so you're probably going to be choosing food over housing.
This made me ask, "since platypuses lay eggs, they must not have internal pregnancies, but if that's the case, then what causes them to start producing milk?", and I don't have an answer yet, but I did just learn that they don't have nipples and instead they just sort of "sweat" milk. (Also they have no sweat glands?)

Another relevant fact seems to be that they don't lay unfertilized eggs. So maybe they do have pregnancies of a sort.

Answers.com, not the best source (also not the worst), asserts [1]:

> Fertilised platypus eggs stay in the mother's body for around 28 days, although lack of research means this has not been determined definitively. The eggs are incubated by the mother curling around them and keeping them warm and dry in the chamber of the burrow for another 10 days.

I'm not sure I get the point of the egg if the majority of the pregnancy is internal anyway. Maybe evolution is just random.

Sure, but this fear of "ending up like Gaddafi" still doesn't doesn't make for a justification, or even an explanation, of why Putin thought it was a good idea to invade a neighboring country. Egging "The West" on made that worry much closer to becoming real. If Putin wanted to be left alone, he's done the exact wrong thing.

I think the fuller explanation is that Putin got drunk on his own Kool-aid of successful propaganda ops against the West, and thought that would translate into battlefield success. Nobody thinks of themselves as a bad person, so the perspective of rulers is that people love them and want to be ruled by them. Hence why Russia started off by sending shock paratroopers to be "greeted as liberators" rather than an actual invasion force.

What I do know is the Russia-Ukraine war is a referendum on the post-WWII international order - whether those lines on a map mean something. And even despite the moral hazards from the outsized winners in that international order (eg the Iraq War), it's seeming that we're much better off with it than without it. And this applies a thousand times over if you're American or European.
Given the amount of media isolation in NK, and amount of demonstrated loyalty needed to rise to high levels of the military with authority over nuclear weapons, I wouldn't want to bet my life against everyone following orders.

As I understand this, Amazon primarily has private landlords build facilities to the specifications of Amazon; the company then leases the facility from the landlord.

One could imagine that Amazon re-negotiated that particular lease when they decided to start downsizing instead of spending additional money on completing the warehouse build-out.

Most certainly not at an all time low. This article makes it clear that there is a lack of worker supply. As a result workers have a huge amount of leverage and have left for other better jobs.

> as if government spy satellites operate on the same schedule with the same priorities as publicly known satellites.

It's basically impossible to hide things in orbit. Hobbyists have been able to track the Misty spy satellite that has an inflatable cone to mask its optical signature. The major powers all operate space tracking radars that can spot anything up there bigger than about a baseball.

Also nearly all optical imaging sats are in sun synchronous orbits because it maximizes power generation vs solar panel size as well allows comparison of multiple days images with the same shadow angles.

> How could it be a mistake if this was public information?

Well they scrubbed the data from the website so that's a pretty clear indication it was a mistake. You're oversimplifying this into a binary thing, whereas a lot of security is more of the form "this isn't foolproof but there's no need for us to make it this easy."

Thanks, I'll add that to the list of things to try out.
Let's be clear, I think that you are mixing up what I mean by Google.

There is the android device on one side (that can have pin and biometric to uncypher the key).

And on the other side there is Google the cloud, where device passwords are currently possibly stored if you allowed it (accidentally or not). The goal is to have your passwords and I guess passkey being synchronized between your devices and easily setup with new devices. Very obviously they will not upload your biometric info. So we can assume that on the cloud side they can access your private keys. If either they are still protected with your pin, that would be easily crackable.

I’m sorry which rule covers that?
Fines escalate when you keep breaking the same rules. Cost of doing business is fine when you can stop, but tracking is central to Meta’s business model.
Well yes, after the Russian revolution the losers fled for their lives. As did Trotsky when Stalin was seeking to kill him. I think he dressed as a woman to escape lol

I am talking about subsequent leaders who actually ruled Russia. Yeltsin helped usher in the Chicago Boys reforms in Russia and he literally fired on Congress. The Peruvian guy does less than that but he is denounced - yet Yeltsin was supported by USA. There is a cover of Time Magazine w him holding an American flag saying “Yanks to the Rescue” where we claimed to have interfered in the Russian elections to have him re-elected despite a 6% (!!) approval rating. We did it so the communist party candidate wouldn’t get into power (Zyuganov).

They even made a movie about it https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=X1Z7pAcGQSQ

So when it comes to Russia, interfering in their elections is something we are proud of doing and even probably overstate it for propaganda purposes. That is another reason why even on a logic/hypocrisy level, very little said by large states (especially empires) means anything to intelligent people. It’s all sound bites designed to get public support for the latest policy of the latest administration, who themselves make it up as they go. Instead of working hard to hear legitimate concerns of others and prevent wars, they escalate wars. This is true across the board in Russia, China, USA etc. They supposedly “work for us” but they do such a terrible job and then we have to pay with our taxes and our boys (and kill other people by the tens of thousands) for THEIR mistakes while they never even come close to paying the price an average young male member of the public has to pay.

In the Russian revolution, 20 million people died, many killing their own relatives. But not Stalin, Lenin, or any of the Bolshevik leaders. Must be nice to be the political class. And people buy this bullshit. Read “war is a racket” by Smeey Butler

I doubt most efficacy claims, because they don't line up with the experiences of most of the people that I know. Most people were vaccinated, most people were boostered, most people contracted covid, many obviousy passed it on. I am not saying that the numbers are wrong, but I am saing that the vaccine was marketed with fancy numbers, that don't mean much in the end, because people get vaccinated, but still get covid and pass it on, potentially multiple times. I can get behind the argument of reducing the risk of severe illness, but all the arguments about protecting others do not make any sense to me when there is such a blatant lack of guarantees. Forbidding blind people to drive a car is a much more straight-forward measure.
By default we try to work around sites which require that the user disable their content blocker, as this is not acceptable since content blockers are used for more than to just block advertisement. In uBO, trackers and malware sites are also blocked, and thus it's not acceptable that sites require to wholly disable uBO.

By default, we do not try to work around sites which make a polite demand that the users disable their blockers without preventing access, this way the final decision is up to the users.

Offshore wind in the UK currently uses the "Contracts for Difference" payment mechanism. Operators bid to build turbines, and the best value operators get assigned areas of the sea. Then, they receive a fixed price from consumers for any electricity they generate (effectively, but there's market mechanisms in there that complicate the accounting).

Initially, this was much more expensive than fossil electricity, but the price of turbines has dropped and the price of fossil electricity has grown, so now existing wind turbines are lowering the price consumers pay for electricity.

New wind farms have achieved CfD rates of less than £0.04 per kWh, which is not a subsidy for the wind farm operators, but rather a subsidy for electricity consumers as this electricity is far cheaper than market rates.
People always say this and I have to ask: have you seen the job market in India lately? It's competitive. Salaries used to be 1/10th that of a US engineer. US-based companies pay a premium, with Google offering L5 engineers over 100K total comp.
Very invulnerable.

This whole “Squeeze” thing is a function of liquidity. The reason that stocks like GME and AMC can experience the effects of a short squeeze is because of how relatively illiquid they are (i.e. point $1bn of consumer capital toward a $3bn stock with thin trading and you can do wild things).

The USD is the currency in which nearly all middle eastern oil is priced, the currency in which $16tn of consumer spending is done, quadrillions of stock trades, etc etc etc.

There’s no individual or group who can point enough capital at that to make for a squeeze, and even if they could, then why wouldn’t the treasury take advantage and start printing more dollars (see: Hertz issuing new shares and ruining wallstreetbet’s day)

The Neovim hard fork is not fully compatible, nor is it always better performing. I also do not find that Lua is better for scripting overall, because there is an impedance mismatch when you need to interact with the editor model. (If you’re doing just programming then, yes, it’s better. But it’s the interface layer which is difficult, and which I find worse than Vimscript or Vimscript9.)

MacVim is a macOS packaged version of Vim with (fairly) light customizations of gvim which is part of the vim source bundle. All neovim GUIs are from-scratch constructions because the neovim developers decided that they did not want to support GUIs directly. IMO, this was a mistake, because none of the neovim GUIs that exist work as well or are as well OS integrated as gvim or make for as "easy" packaging as MacVim has.

> I want answers to all these questions in a comprehensive way.

IMO what you need is an overview of the philosophy of mathematics/logic (as someone pointed out)

Being a philosophy, you should not expect definite answers. Mathematics itself is a historical process, so there are always trends and fashions to be aware of.

To get a quick comprehensive map, I personally always start with online articles (before books) on encyclopaedias like Plato [0] or even Wikipedia [1].

>Why certain things can be proved and others not?

One of the most captivating events of the 20th century is how Kurt Gödel's incompleteness theorems "destroyed" Hilbert’s dream of creating pure formalized foundations of all mathematics (without paradoxes and inconsistencies). I don’t think we ever fully comprehended the implications of this.

> how did Computer science or computation emerge as a branch of mathematics

Besides Gödel’s incompleteness, there is Turing's completeness. Turing Machine is the associated model of computation. These models are mathematical abstraction of computers (see "Theory of computation")

Isn't it the sun's energy that ultimately creates the wind - through differential heating?

So whether it's anti-correlated might a local feature depending on the local factors driving the weather?

Perhaps stronger correlation would be that air movement ( wind ) is the thing that drives the weather changing. ie no wind, means slow change ( though the opposite isn't necessarily true - if you are in the centre of a cyclic weather system which isn't moving you could have wind and not much change ).
>The Twitter files is one of the biggest recent Silicon Valley scandals, demonstrating collusion between a major political party and a major tech company to suppress The Freedom of Speech.

"The Twitter Files" is clearly just this year's "Hunter Biden's Laptop" which was that year's "DNC Leaks prove treason" which was that year's Pizzagate. There's nothing of intellectual or technical interest here, it's just the American right throwing shit against the wall and hoping something sticks.

> Feel free to down vote but also reply with something because I think we need to reconsider the inherent value placed on human life.

This is a sentence that I would hope never to have associated with me. We need to re-consider the value of people's lives … on what basis? Because of the harm they have done to others, I guess. And why is that harm so bad? Because people's lives have value, surely. But should we interrogate whether all the people hurt by an official's actions were good or bad people before deciding how much to weight that official's harm to them?

If the principle of life having value doesn't extend to everyone, then it doesn't really cover anyone. To put it differently, if there is a principle according to which a life can be said to have no value, then that principle, howsoever aimed at the powerful it might initially be, will be used against the powerless.
