There is only a handful of parameters. They describe the probability distribution of finding one particular matter configuration. We are simply observing one realization of that probability distribution, in which we should be able to calculate the percentage of galaxies with an unusual amount of dark matter for any definition of "unusual". We don't consider the position and momentum of every baryon a parameter of the standard model either, so why should we do so with DM?

DM can be falsified perfectly well. If the rotation curves of all observed galaxies behaved as predicted by Newton, there would be no DM and every reasonable physicist would consider DM falsified. DM simply passes a lot of falsification experiments.

If DM interacts purely gravitationally, then yes, considering it either matter or an artifact of space-time is merely a matter of preference. Simply move the DM part of the energy-stress tensor on the other side of the Einstein equation.

Differentiating it from MoND or similar theories will then be based purely on how well the theory fits.

However, while I'm only a cosmologist and not a particle physicist, I find the implied assertion by proponents of MoND, that the existence of non-interacting particles is impossible, questionable. Why shouldn't there be heavy particles that don't interact electromagnetically, like a heavy neutrino? Or particles that don't even interact weakly? Or at least, why should their abundance be low compared to baryons?

Edit: Regarding falsification of DM, it's not like DM isn't challenged anywhere. Like I mentioned above, we should be able to compute the abundance of galaxies of certain sizes (dark or not), and the dwarf galaxies are coming up short. It's called the dwarf galaxy problem and poses indeed a challenge to DM, albeit not as much as DM alternatives in the mind of most cosmologists. They think it will be solved eventually as our understanding of galaxy formation improves, but who knows, maybe it's the first glimpse at something bigger. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dwarf_galaxy_problem

I dispute the word "talented" here. A talented PA, and one I would pay good money for, would not need me to closely proof read every single piece of correspondence they write. It would be faster for me to do it myself.

And this is why AI in its current form will not be accepted for serious applications, or where it is, we will see a severe decrease in quality.

How long are your cold showers, and in what ways are you feeling great? You mentioned that you're trying to recover faster. What are you recovering from? I hope you get better soon ;'o

I recently started trying to take more cold showers, but they're never exclusively cold. I start cold for a minute, then take a regular hot shower for another 5-10, and then finish it off with another cold rinse for one last minute. This has been my drill for pretty much every evening in the past six months, also inspired by the "longevity framework" as you put it!

It doesn't feel as if my life has changed drastically by any means, apart from the mild ego stroke of "wow I sustained two whole minutes of cold!" That said, it might be because I'm not doing cold showers right.

Since the businesses of relatives work/-ed for some time with big German businesses I heard from them locally unheard stories about cash only payments for the delivery drivers and re labeling the products with “made in Germany stickers” big style.

Since forever. There are a few reasons why - one is cultural the other is risk. On the cultural side industries that are "controversial" tend to be avoided. Payment processors don't like to be associated with porn, gambling, drugs etc. because of potential negative PR. If you're a payment processor and trying to land big conservative clients, having press about how you support the porn industry doesn't do you any favors.

The other side is risk, meaning industries that have an above average chargeback (fraud) rate. Many times these industries overlap - porn for instance. Lots of stolen credit card numbers are used to by porn, but also legitimate purchases can easily end up as a chargeback. The classic example is that someone buys porn on their credit card and then their partner finds out. Instead of admitting they bought porn, they claim someone must have stolen their credit card to save face.

> For this to work you want to be able to generate a key in hardware (so it can't just be copied elsewhere if the machine is compromised), prove to a remote site that it's generated in hardware (so the remote site isn't confused about what security assertions you're making), and tie use of that key to the user being physically present (which may range from "I touched this object" to "I presented biometric evidence of identity").

On a practical level I think this attitude has held security back for years.

WebAuthn's killer feature is that it stops most phishing cold. Not OAuth phishing, not more exotic approaches that involve e.g. DNS hijacking, but nearly all of what's out there today. And it doesn't need TPMs or attestation or user presence tests for that. Those features are for malware.

Shielding the keys from malware is all well and good, but it's a fine line between stealing the keys used to authenticate and stealing the authenticated session or access token after the user logs in. You can stop the malware from authenticating, but not from accessing. Is this really worth the loss in usability?

Hopefully passkeys get good enough to finally take WebAuthn mainstream, because it's not likely to happen with hardware. I still have Yubikeys for critical production systems, but a couple years ago I started using a virtual USB driver (or HID gadget on Linux) to do the rest through client code. It's all software, the keys are backed up, and I can easily move between computers.

If they'd just started with software half the business world would've adopted this stuff by now.

> If you'd read the Microsoft Research PDF linked above, you'd have seen that fork scales with how much memory the parent is using, which would be invisible in these synthetic benchmarks.

Ah right, I was talking about SMP scaling, but yes fork does have an O(memory) scaling factor.

It certainly shows up on benchmarks because 99% of forking in Unix is on small processes (make, bash, etc.), not huge ones like Chrome. This kind of thing is why the Windows kernel is unable to compete with Linux in performance and scalability in in a lot of important basic operations that make things like git slow. The focus was on some academically supposedly "correct" interface or way of doing things, not what programs actually want to use.

> They say that Chrome on Linux might take up to 100ms to fork. That doesn't scream very fast to me.

Yeah probably true. If I needed a facility to be able to exec very frequently in a highly threaded application with a huge memory footprint and significant security concerns, I would almost certainly use a dedicated process to do that. You can potentially use posix spawn or clone directly, but forking from a thread from the main process in this case just seems unnecessary and asking for portability problems.

I don't say fork is perfect or can't be improved, but the hysteria about it's "infecting" the whole system and causing some vast problem is just not at all true.
It’s just not true. Elster is already electronic for couple years. If you know what are doing it takes 4 hours max. I recommend your friend to find good tax advisor if he/she is not capable to do it by himself/herself.
Tbh, what I perceive as “art” in the original work is still unique and wasn’t copied into the reproduction. It’s a copy of hair, face and clothing configuration, which is non-unique and a strange subject for copyright. I mean this is obviously borderline, but still a subjective issue.

If you like analogies, it’s like some pro photographer found a place, angle and hundreds of other parameters to shoot in the nature, copyrighted the image, and then someone geoguess’d that exact place next day and took a pic with their iphone or google maps street view.
Why just guess though?

One of the problems is the way certain airlines, and commercial aviation in general, started to pay and employ pilots. Gone are the days of airline employed initial pilot training. Gone are the days, in some cases, of airline paid type rating training. Which turned the job of an airline pilot into quite a shitty one, especially considering the amount of responsibility pilots have.

Pushing for single pilot flight will only make it worse.

The problem is that Luxembourg's copyright regime should be a lot more stricter than, for example, US (this ruling is significantly different from other Luxembourgish rulings). I actually thought that this is a US ruling at first glance.

I disagree. The utility of short names is not just that it takes less effort to write them. They're also far easier to read and understand. IDE autocompletion doesn't help with that, nor does any other tooling, really. Since code is read much more frequently than it's written (including but not limited to any time that related code has to be changed), names should be as short as possible without sacrificing clarity. Excessively long names are harder to parse, and can slow you way down when trying to understand code.

(I'm arguing against what I see as your central point, but to be fair, 'without sacrificing clarity' is doing a bit of work in the paragraph above... your example is actually a good case of a bit of additional length being actually worth it. I would say timeoutMs or timeoutSecs are good shorter alternatives, "ms" and "secs" being widespread and clear abbreviations. You're completely right that 'timeout' is insufficiently clear for a purely numeric type, though I'd disagree that you need all that much type system magic to make it OK. For example calling a `java.time.Duration` `timeout` seems fine.)

Why should we not consider the emergence of human scientific abstractions itself any less a part of physical reality unfolding? If anything, while I agree with you we are but animals in the grand scheme of things, the fact that we have significantly altered our material daily existence so significantly and so rapidly should further convince you that the mental abstractions we use to describe the world nowadays are unusually well-grounded in reality, compared to the past. In certain places, anyway.

> "Copyright" is a concept from countries of "common law" (essentially the US).

Is that what they teach in US schools? The common law originated in England and is used there and in many places that were influenced by the English justice system: the US, Canada (except Quebec), India, Australia, Israel and about a third of the world.
The case law in the US is favorable to the newer artist in many cases, the four factors of fair use would be in the newer artists favor for a one off piece of art based on a reference.

Like with http://www.artistrights.info/cariou-v-prince the works consisting of collages, with a guitar pasted over the original work was found to be fair use. In this case the transformative use was a bigger factor, but part of the work was exactly copied, not just derivative.

Leibovitz v. Paramount Pictures Corp is more similar to this case. But in Leibovitz while the poses were the same there were several other factors that were changed to heighten the comedic effect.
