There is no mention of O'Nolan being rude (although he did make a number of untrue claims, which at least pretty negligent—but that's not a charge that the linked tweets say, either...)

There was no code use, and there was no copyright violation/failure of attribution, so there is no "yes we use some code, oops we will add attribution" called for, nor would it even be logical to do so.

Wait, why would carbon dioxide levels have any effect on wildfires more than, say nitrogen?

For wildfires, I would expect the proportion of oxygen to matter much more than other gasses not involved in combustion.

Perhaps there's a difference in humidity levels, and therefore specific heat of the air?
On most Linux distributions, it's basically the same. Your package manager tends to make no distinction between OS files and installed program files.

FreeBSD does another approach, where user-installed packages go to /usr/local and don't get intermixed with the base operating system.
What I find the most striking about these stories is the increasing desperation on the part of what Eco would call the 'model reader'.

The degree to which these (genuine!) advances are being presented as a much-needed pick-me-up for despairing mortals, trapped, as they are, in decaying bodies on a dying planet run by whimsical billionaires, is as precise a measure as I can think of for predicting the date of the collapse/singularity.

The real story is how badly you wanted to read this story.

China has returned helium-3 from the moon
I believe pfdietz's point is there's no need to go to the Moon (or Jupiter?!) to extract 3He when sufficient 3He can be generated on Earth, at lower cost, and be energy positive.

Your digression seems irrelevant to that point.

We didn't use Heinlein stories as a source of evidence about reality. We didn't use thorium rockets to get to the Moon. Nor did we develop monoatomic hydrogen ("Single-H") fuel.

Similarly, we don't use Gundam stories.

Also, Project Daedalus' proposal to mine the Jupiter atmosphere for 3He for fusion predates the first Gundam episode, and is likely what influenced the series. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Daedalus .

It's actually quite similar; it used to be that all the "system" binaries were in /bin and /sbin and the "other stuff" was in /usr/bin and /usr/sbin but that has not been true for quite a while on many distributions.

"The idiot defense" is a satirical term for a legal strategy where a defendant claims innocence by virtue of having been ignorant of facts of which the defendant would normally be expected to be aware. Other terms used for this tactic include "dumb CEO defense", "dummy defense", "ostrich defense", "Ken Lay defense", and "Sergeant Schultz defense"

"Ostrich defense" makes me laugh every time.

Let me present a counterpoint.

I have two Apple machines. One is old and stuck on Catalina – three iterations behind the current macOS [Catalina -> Big Sur -> Monterey -> Ventura] – so for a long while I kept both on Catalina to avoid issues. Sadly, the older machine died a few weeks ago, so I decided to update the other machine to Monterey (because Ventura is still in the teething-troubles phase).

Now I get about 9 Mbps here, so I started the upgrade before bed, and left it overnight to do its thing. Next day I was presented with the garish boot Monterey boot-screen and logged in.

That’s it. This is a boring story.

There were a few small cosmetic differences, but otherwise everything was just as it was before. No clicks required. No dark patterns. Dare I say: it just worked.

There’s no reason Microsoft, or any other company, can’t do this. It’s simply respecting the user/customer.

I left the Microsoft universe about a decade ago simply because it felt too stressful. Nothing was concrete. It felt like the sand was always shifting beneath you. I have no love of Apple – I’ll move if they start playing games – but for now, they do most things – far from everything – well, and I never feel disrespected, even if my wallet is somewhat lighter every now and then.

That's interesting that it started reverting into Windows 10.

It makes you wonder how the thing is built. Like rather than modifying the code, Windows 11 is like a service that run on top of 10 and modifies a few UI things near the end of the startup process. Was that just some kind of hack due to time constraints? Or is the Windows codebase really that much of a delicate ecosystem when it comes to not breaking legacy software so they couldn't even modify the taskbar or file explorer without wrecking something?

All major sports generate massive amounts of revenue due to in person sales and broadcasting rights. Sports also drive other avenues of revenue especially in big cities. Esports will not be on major television networks for a long time. Esports also do not have leagues with good in person attendance. Games and audiencies change too much and the best they can do is tournaments. Venture capitalists invested massive amounts of money based on hype and now are struggling to get ROI, let alone profit. The influx of cash will slow down as the venture capitalists face the consequences of their actions. Esports will not die but actually increase. Viewership numbers about League of Legends are showing decline because the game is in its late stages for competitive play. Valorant is the new rising star and others will follow in its path. Counter Strike has stayed pretty consistent which is impressive. Simply put investors will need to come up with a new strategy that is more traditional if they want to invest in this industry. To not invest though is simply an opportunity for better investors

After 30+ years, I have found the non-amphetamine medications work a lot more consistently and helpfully than the amphetamine ones.

The one downside is that if your brother also ends up on SSRI's, he won't be able to use most of the non-amphetamine medications until he is done with SSRI's.

I literally just yesterday super painstakingly "downgraded" to Win10 because W11 was/is so terrible. I had to take my Win laptop into Bestbuy because of this ridiculous situation in which Windoze was telling me I needed to buy a "legitimate" copy of the stupid operating system and I wasn't able to fix it myself without doing all sorts of stuff involving editing registries and God knows what else. The Best Buy guy was like "yeah, I wouldn't have recommended putting Win 11 on it. I can wipe it and put 10 on if you want", which I gladly accepted. Normally I use Ubuntu, I just bought a Win laptop because it seems easier to print from a Windows computer than a Linux PC, sadly.

One thing that always struck me as inappropriate is that they want to scan your DL before you test drive a vehicle. That lets them look you up, see your home value and possibly your salary (if you're a big exec — for the record, I am not!). Is there a diplomatic way to decline to hand over your DL, and a bunch of bargaining power along with it? I'd rather a salesperson not know whether I can barely afford their cheapest car or easily afford their most expensive when we go to the bargaining table.

Mark Karpeles got in over his head, criminally. He lied some, he defrauded some, but most of it seemed to be to try to cover up for previous mistakes, and I think he legitimately just had some bad things happen to him, got in over his head, and made a bunch of mistakes in an early time for Bitcoin. He deserved prison time, and he's paid his debt to society.

In a similar way we will eventually have nuclear powered aircraft and cargo ships. Power and heat from nuclear plants on land will be used to manufacture synthetic liquid fuels.
I wouldn’t call either of those social programs. They’re mostly subsidies for industry, with ancillary tax benefits for the rich and upper middle class. Also hardly “multi-trillion”. After reading the article in full, I assume they were alluding to the PPP and direct stimulus payments to taxpayers that suffered some fraud. Even the 25% fraud cited seems minor, but it certainly could have been administered a lot better. I agree that public investment in long term endeavors has been abysmal, but that trend started in the 70s with Carter. What all this is ultimately about is neoliberalism. Using the state via the Fed to further enrich the rich is the final end of that ideology, and it has been very successful at that.
The new Unstable Diffusion model will be one of the several SD finetuned model out there, these models usually have much higher quality (but smaller image diversity) because they take the coherency of SD and costrain the distribution to a small high quality portion, this means that you can train a model on a smaller high quality dataset from scratch but you would not, for example, have the same level of coherency, this can only be obtained with an incredible amount of images, and they don't need to be "high quality", a man will almost always have 2 arms, 2 legs etc... regardless of the quality of the images, and after the model has fit the entire distribution you can finetune it to produce high quality and coherent images with a small dataset, that's why Unstable Diffusion will finetuned a SD checkpoint, also why researchers use these big dataset like LAION-400M/5B

> There's no better way than cash for large transactions between private persons

For small amounts? maybe.

Assuming you like bringing money with you and your time is free and you like to pay two times: the first time when you pay in cash, the second time when you have to waste time to get the money from an ATM.

There are much better ways to solve these issues and I use cash only with people I already know, other than to pay drinks and cigarettes.

For large amounts?

Absolutely not.

Unless the transaction is between two people with something to hide, of course.

Ironically, this is why Europe wanted to put a limit on cash transactions [1]

They probably know their chickens

> Used cars go for way more than 10k

So what?

There's absolutely no obligation to pay in one transaction.

Even with raising interest rates, it's still more convenient to lend the money from the bank and pay monthly, instead of giving away 10k that could be invested in something much more profitable than a used car.

You can easily repay the loan in 5 years with < 200 euro/month even at rates around 5-6%.

> I bought my current car for 35k used.

That's a very expensive car and this [2] is 35k euros cash.

Not exactly "the best way" to pay. Honestly someone who pays a car with 35k cash, can only look like this in my mind [3]

This how I actually do it [4], paying monthly rates, very cheap interests, thanks, but no thanks.

I'm suspicious of this one. It may be misinterpreting what's happening, but we need more details. Specifically, there's obviously some dev environment - people weren't literally editing files directly in production. Then, at some scale you may actually reject the idea of staging and instead concentrate on canary deployments, monitoring, and fast rollbacks.

I'm not saying the situation wasn't bad, but the quote doesn't tell us much without explaining how did it work instead. There's a lot of huge projects with only production environment. Probably more than people are comfortable thinking of.
It would help putting a big sign pointing at the plane and explaining what it did once.

One reason could be having oop-style objects available in Prolog. Prolog modules are global, they’re like a singleton, or like s bunch of namespaced functions. Once you import a module, it is like a singleton. Prolog doesn’t have anything what could store a state of a module so functions inside of a module can operate on some common state. One way would be to use a global database but that’s really discouraged because of performance impact it can have.

Modules being a Prolog construct can be basically created at runtime. So if you need multiple instances, you could create and load multiple modules at runtime. But that’s pretty verbose and quite a bit of work.

Logtalk gives you this out of the box using your standard Prolog.

In Sweden they can certainly do so, if a person is a danger to themselves or others (as declared by two doctors) they can be put into closed mental care with police escort and drugged to the extent that they can't speak for themselves without any right to legal protection.

I might as well start with: I was disappointed to get near the end and see that ShipVerse would not be available until sometime in 2023.

Other than that I like a galactic scale transactional memory and trying to make Haskell simpler for the masses while still supporting professional programmers.
