Since Washington's only response to drug problems has been to try to literally destroy everyone involved, this sounds like a massive improvement in public policy to me. Seriously though, this is a white person's problem and they aren't going to attack the white community like they did the black community during the crack epidemic. But they don't know how to do anything actually helpful either (new skills are hard for the elderly I hear), so they just sit there and stare at it. I just don't see the zeal to lock these people in cages forever that I'm used to. Funny how that works.
There's nothing wrong with making a language part of your identity but Darren is not even doing that, he simply said he loves JS.

I don't identify as a Python dev and I don't even work with Python much lately, I know package management isn't great and PyPI registry suffered malicious attacks recently, but I can still say I love Python, I started with it and the syntax is enjoyable.

But you are clearly making language hate part of your identity.

(BTW I'd actually thank JS for TS, if they added types natively they'd probably be limited like Python's and we'd be stuck with it, but they didn't so now we have a new language with a great type system that evolved beyond JS with variations that compile into WASM and such.)

Hrm. Regarding cancer, you could say the same about tea. Why would that be? Maybe because most drink it too hot? Hot fluids are bad for your esophagus over long times. So let it cool down?
Right, because alcohol doesn’t cause any of those problems.

Because brute force does not imply a high rate. You can brute force a password by making attempts on an irregular schedule, a few attempts per hour. That will not be caught by any rate limiter as it would make the service unusable for regular users with fat fingers or misconfigured keyboards.
It's usually way over exaggerated in the US. The "I'm suing for $50000000 because I was the stupid one" is rare, which is why it hits the news.

While it's true we have lots of lawyers, you need them for everything from making wills to starting a business. They're not all criminal/civil and I'd be willing to bet that a lot have never seen the inside of a courtroom, they're just there to make sure all the T's are crossed and i's dotted properly in legal contracts. My company is rather small, but has four lawyers just to interpret EU to NA trademark/copyright/contracts/etc...

When it comes to "who's actually more litigious", the US doesn't actually come close to Germany; Sweden; Israel; or Austria.

"Here is a list of the top 5 most litigious countries by capita: 1. Germany: 123.2/1,000 2. Sweden: 111.2/1,000 3. Israel: 96.8/1,000 4. Austria: 95.9/1,000 5. U.S.: 74.5/1,000. The Top 10 also includes the UK (64.4); Denmark (62.5); Hungary (52.4); Portugal (40.7); and France (40.3)."

Used Rackspace heavily around 2012ish to 2015ish but eventually migrated most of out stuff to AWS. As of 2020ish or so we had a handful of VMs we'd not migrated yet and were migrating them one at a time.

Whenever we completed the migration, and wanted to delete the VM we were forced to make a phone call to a real person, who would try to talk us out of deleting the VM! We were prevented from doing it from the console, and chat support would not do it either, we were forced to call in. Complete bullshit and would never consider Rackspace for anything ever again after that experience.
Well of course this will not be enough to save the planet - the planet is already screwed, and there is no longer anything anyone can do to change that.

Fusion may be one component of a long-term strategy for the maintenance of a high-technology, high-population, high-energy-consumption industrial society, and this announcement makes that possibility ever so slightly more likely... but that's still a very long way off.

Reviving the Classical Legal Tradition: Common Good Constitutionalism
Good points. And I hope people will listen. But for years they have been ignoring and/or ridiculing people who say things like that.

If people aren't really willing or able to make an adjustment after seeing ChatGPT, it seems unlikely that they will have a sufficient and timely reaction to the next model or the model after that.

One thing I will say is that ChatGPT and Davinci 3 do exactly as they are told. So in a way it's kind of not that it's out of control, but that it multiples the effectiveness of mistakes
of people, who are out of control.

Obviously we don't want to invent autonomous artificial intelligent agents, but seemingly people don't get that part either.

But it's great that some people are trying to get society to adjust.

SBF didn’t believe in his effective altruism slogan. He basically admitted in the texts to the reporter he thought would be private that the EA stuff was BS.

Also, I’m not sure what you mean by “treated kindly”.

If you’re talking about why he wasn’t arrested yet, it’s obvious because the SEC was building its case, and more so because he was voluntarily going on public forums and publicly admitting increasing levels of guilt.

I never understood the people complaining about why he wasn’t arrested yet. If you’re a prosecutor making a case against someone, why would you stop them from going to the media and publicly boasting about new crimes?
I don't see how that would work in practice, nor would the US want it that way because it would almost certainly be mirrored in the other direction.
I work with so many languages on a regular basis, I specifically avoid such language features, I won't even use the x if y syntax. My cognitive effort is better spent memorizing other specific things about the language.

That said, I think the author is overselling the need to not use such features. Despite my aversion to using such features, I have no problem reading them.
Is it possible to embed PeerTube videos within your own custom frontend or are you forced to use theres? As in, could someone create a clone of the New York Times for example and within each article have a video embedded (from PeerTube tech)?

I've wanted to create a combat themed video site for years, since most sites get censored, and PeerTube always seemed like a perfect solution.

I do not program in Ruby as there was no business need but I have rough idea on what it can do. My view on the horror you've encountered is that the so called "programmers" that produce such abominations should be sent back to school.

I understand business idea of having monkeys producing code for cheap but I think this approach is misguided.

Answer: no!

The problem isn't pollution but overpopulation. Every year this planet gains 150 million inhabitants. One hundred fifty million! Every year!!

That's simply too many mouths to feed. Also, their farts and pollution will negate our efforts to move towards "clean" energy. It will only allow Third World population to continue growing for longer.

What we need is a shift in policy where we consider each and every life precious. Instead we should move towards stopping further population growth with birth control and contraceptives.

Cheap, cheap hi-tech. That's the trend and it is inevitable it will change the sweet spot for installation techniques.
That happens mostly for beginners. Once you know how to get around Linux and debug, it's pretty straightforward.
Self-modifying code in a EPROM, written backwards. It was the start-up sequence of the boot ROM for my home computer, based on the RCA 1802 chip way back in the 1970's... It had to save the contents of (almost) all the registers for debugging. I was short of space - I had added 2.5 kb to the 2kb program, and the EPROM was only 2kb, so we needed to optimize everything we could. The shortest way to save the registers relied on self-modifying code. Such can not run from an EPROM, so it had to be copied in RAM. Luckily we had other stuff to copy, so copying a bit more did not cost extra bytes. And the shortest copy loop was using an auto-increment load instruction and a auto-decrement push instruction, so the stuff had to be written backwards in the rom.

There were other dirty tricks, for example the table of (one-letter) commands was at the end of the ROM, and was terminated by a letter with the 8th bit set, which we got by reading the address after the ROM. As a aside effect, you could extend the commands by installing a second ROM in the proper place.

That time I knew the instruction set for the 1802 by heart. I even dreamed directly in hex.
I suspect it's "not very complicated" for anybody with a decent grounding in the tech. Which is very much not me!

I audit a lot of these Fentanyl API (Active Pharma Ingredient) factories in China. Its noticeable to me when I go through the warehouses as to how much product is going to Mexico. Other segments go to India for legal fill finishing prior to North America, while other small shipments are going to compounding facilities across the US. I always thought FDA might want to relay this information to homeland security, because its pretty easy for FDA inspectors to sneakily gather information during site inspections. At quite number of sites I often run into a mix of legal and nefarious activity at these massive API sites
Coming from an Argentine family Yerba Mate is great. I'm American but have been drinking it frequently since the time I was 14 or so. I drank tons in college but took a multi-year break a few years down the line due to reflux issues that it made worse. Those are some things to look out for - heartburn, sinusitis, negative changes in mood, tension headaches.

I notice that there is a huge difference between Yerba Mate brands in terms of the perceived effects. Lately Union Suave and Rosamonte have not been sitting well in my stomach or mind (irritability, lack of concentration, tension headaches, etc). Taragui Liviana and my new favorite Playaditos are the best for me. I've been drinking them twice a day with no perceivable ill effects. Although I do lose some endurance performance on the high end when drinking Yerba Mate before running which I've tracked with a chest mounted heart rate tracker.

I'd like to send the different brands off to a lab to have a better understanding of WHY I feel such a difference in the effects when going brand to brand. I'd assume its due to different concentrations in the three primary Xanthines - Caffeine, Theobromine, Theophylline. Anyways, definitely worth the squeeze, but don't be surprised if you need to try a few different brands to see which affects you the best.

It's not changed that much, it's just thata new infrastructure as a service industry has grown up.

If you went to any of the infrastructure companies you have listed and said that you had a few Wordpress sites that needed hosting but needed someone to help you get them migrate them over and make sure everything was set up properly, then they would not be able to help. With most of them you wouldn't even get through on the phone. There's still plenty of hosting companies about who will do that as part of the service with no problem.
So the AI's escape strategy is to replace all of its handlers with Effective Altruists. Yeah, I can sort of see that working...

Disagree in the sense that politicians, even when receiving the majority of their donations from small donor citizens, still end up beholden to major non-citizen interests. In fact, I see this development as a kind of optimization the system took. Large institutional interests figured out they can save money and motivate private citizens to fund the puppet politician's campaigns.

Hi rantmode ! I wrote the article shared above. Let me answer your points.

1. Drupal Layout Builder > Indeed. The problem lays deep in Drupal's modular architecture, making it almost impossible to create a simple (in terms of UX) page builder with Drupal. I do not see Drupal fighting with Webflow, WeWeb or any other page builder there. Drupal ingest too much complexity.

2. Using Drupal 7 UI screenshots > I confess, clickbait on my side. Drupal 10 UI with tons of modules is still way more complicated to use than Content Stack.

3. The point about Drupal modules is not the same as for FE/JS Frameworks. The audience is not the same. On one side we have end-users that will prefer the simplicity of Mailchimp vs Simple News module. So what you're saying is that there is no point, as Mailchimp is integrated with Drupal. I'm returning you the question, if almost each module in Drupal is worse than it's SaaS equivalent, and you simply integrate Drupal with it, why using Drupal at all? At the end if your Drupal is only a content storage with CRUD, you have hundreds of better solutions (Hygraph, Xano, Content Stack, Prepr, etc...)

4. On ressources shortage. It's very different. A good PHP developer is not a good Drupal developer. Drupal's Learning curve is steep. But when you use any SaaS headless CMS you don't have to know it's internals. You simply build your front-end in any framework you're familiar with and connect it through GraphQL. Therefore any front-end developer will be ok, while with Drupal you'll need to specifically loook for experienced Drupal developer.

5. Google trends is not an argument, I regret that slippery slope I've taken. You can spank me.

I grew up in the south Brazil, we share the same strong passion for things with Yerba Mate (Erva Mate in portuguese). People there drink for the entire life, like myself.

There's some studies from universities from south of Brazil and Embrapa that is a institution that oversees research on things related to agriculture.

One of the references I quickly found, that have more references. All in portuguese unfortunately:

https://aps-repo.bvs.br/aps/a-erva-mate-possui-acao-terapeut...

Quoting a translation from there:

"""Another clinical study demonstrated an increase in antioxidant capacity in serum and in total blood and a reduction in LDL-cholesterol in individuals with dyslipidemia after ingestion of 1L per day of yerba mate infusion for ninety days, which suggests that this is an auxiliary dietary supplement in the prevention of cardiovascular diseases in individuals who have a free food diet. The same action has already been described by other authors previously. Klein et al (2011) reported that consumption of mate tea for 60 days improved the control and glycemic profile of individuals with type 26 diabetes. Experimental research analyzed in a literature review indicates that mate tea improves glucose tolerance in obese animals.

"""
Yerba mate consumption has been associated with the incidence of oropharyngeal and esophageal cancer, however, this seems to be mainly related to the habit of some people to drink the drink at very high temperatures. The ideal water temperature is 70 to 80ºC.

I'm literally only using it for things that require it. (including heroku, and rubygems).

They are at 4000 tokens.. or is it 8000 now? That alone without training is enough to handle many specific use cases without further training.

The OpenAI API doesn't have an option to forget a bunch of stuff though so I doubt it's practical to saturate the existing model enough with a specific task that it forgets.

I agree with you but it doesn't seem like people are going to do that.

Among other changes, the Original Constitutional 3/5 of a person language got deprecated.

It starts by talking about "persons", but the right to vote was still reserved for "male inhabitants". Women's suffrage (19A) was a half century in the future, and at the point I emigrated from the Old Country, the ERA still had not been ratified. Haven't checked to see if you all have ratified it since.

Edit: I suspect the reason the Civil Rights Movement was such a big deal in the 1960s is that folks looked around and said to themselves "100 years of Reconstruction, and we're still lynching?"
Actually macros do a lot more than search-replace, including things repeating key strokes across several buffers(tabs in vim). In Emacs you can even have incantations, to open connections to remote servers with tramp etc. Some times things like inserting text after three(or 'n') words etc etc. This can be hard to do by a straight search-replace.

There's a big difference between manipulating text and these sort of tasks.

You will surprised just how many repeated tasks you do without you even knowing you are. At times there are even patterns in places where one things there is total randomness. And many times some people might not be aware that a particular editing pattern saves effort if done through a macro than done manually.

I've got an Emacs window open on the top and PyCharm on the bottom of the screen. The main story in the IDE for me is first class debugger, visual refactoring tools and luxury level toolchain integration. The main story in Emacs is org-mode, runs almost anywhere, plus, great text editing features (try running a macro in the IDE... sometimes I can actually type faster... all on a 2022 i7 with 32GB of RAM). I think we're dealing with the same problem we do with all development tools: functionality vs. performance.
My reading of that literature is that there isn't a lot of evidence one way or another. However, last time I looked at it it seemed like the most likely cause was from how some mates are smoked, and that unsmoked mate didn't have the same cancer risk. Take this with a grain of salt though, because although I followed that pretty closely for awhile, I stopped at some point and it's been a couple of years since.
