People addicted to substance do suffer and can produce negative externalities but spending money on militarised police which puts in jail anyone who possess a banned substance IMHO is not the best way to allocate (always) limited funds. What would actually help is not clear but I hate when politicians follow the algorithm: we need to do something about the problem, here is something so let’s do it (even if it doesn’t work or cost is too high for provided benefit).
Oil changes for a Stratofortress in flight would be a real trick. You could do what the Keys Brothers did and build a catwalk for wingwalking out to the engines- not recommended!- or you could do more like what the Hacienda did and run oil lines from each engine into the crew compartment so you can change it from inside, but that's a LOT of extra oil to pump. Going from the #1 engine all the way to the fuselage would be a long way to pump.
The problem is that there is nothing to replace the US dollar/Euro -- e.g. the western capital markets, because other nations (excluding Japan) do not want to open their capital markets to foreign investment. So if this was just a matter of switching from one reserve currency to another, then globalization would be fine. But this is a situation in which the world is realizing that the dollar/euro system is no longer fit for use, and there is nothing to replace it, which is why nations are realizing that they can no longer run these massive trade surpluses full stop. That's how you get to the end of globalization.

> see last week in KSA

Yes, let's look at this deal, because the KSA deal is a perfect example of the end of globalization. It's basically barter -- Saudi will send China oil and China will send Saudi Huawei gear and build factories there. People are focusing on the fact that the oil will be denominated in CNY and assume this means a massive increase in Saudi CNY holdings -- but China doesn't want other nations to start buying up CNY assets, and it has capital controls in place to prevent that. So the CNY is not replacing the dollar as a reserve currency -- that would be China's worst nightmare.

Instead, we are switching to bilateral, managed, balanced trade in which each side gets something tangible under their own control and there is no residual large cross border financial flow to finance the deal.

Now let's assume this is how trade will be done in the future. You want to import natural gas from me? Fine, build me a chip fab. Or a port. This is a very different world than saying "You want to import natural gas from me? Fine, I'll buy lots of your bonds and keep my money in your financial system. Do you see the difference?

I very much would leave the website if I'm opening the site for the first time and it doesn't even render partially, but I recognise people like me are the minority of potential visitors.

Unless you have a tiny target audience that includes people who tend to disable Javascript, this seems like a fine solution. I use JS to hide email from the most basic of scrapers most of my sites and so far it has worked wonders.

However, long term this seems like a solution that will be difficult to maintain. Either the proxy will start stripping CSS as well (s/hidden/visible) or it'll require constantly playing along in a cat-and-mouse game that you don't stand to gain anything in by winning.

I would add random, page-like endpoints that only you know and request them through their proxy (through VPNs/TOR/you name it). Ban the entire /48 (IPv6) or /24 (IPv4) or send them into a tar pit (iptables -A INPUT -p tcp -m tcp -dport 80 -j TARPIT for the IP address you target) to exhaust their resources.

There are a number of rich text editors that model documents as a flat array of characters and a separate table of formatting modifiers (each with an offset and length). Medium's text editor is one of them. This post [1] on their engineering blog introduced me to the idea, and I think it's a good starting point for anyone interested in this topic.

ProseMirror (a JavaScript library for building rich text editors) also employs a document model like this. The docs for that project [2] do a good job of explaining how their implementation of this idea works, and what problems it solves.

Worried about Dorsey's health, the senior team mostly tried to cover up for him

This seems like a failure of the corporate model in general. 'Everyone knows' the CEO/dictator/monarch is unable to function, but senior leaders cover it up (poorly), the board looks the other way, shareholders are deceived or at least kept ignorance, and the rabble (that's you) are confused at best and dismissed as crazy if they intuit the state of affairs correctly.

Why do we institutionalize such systems when the patterns of failure are so glaringly obvious and have been endlessly repeated?
You're very much ignoring the actual historical context and the writing of the founders. That even half of the new nation outlawed slavery was pretty unique in the world of 1776 where slavery was globally ubiquitous. Article 1 section 9 of the constitution set a sort of cooling off period after which congress could end the Atlantic slave trade, which it did. The writing of the framers from the time makes it clear that their intention was to end importation in 1808 under the theory that it would cause slavery to end. They were trying to do so without fracturing their unstable union, it was a compromise just like the 3/5 compromise. But again, this was an unusually emancipatory direction for any new nation in the 18th century when every other nation had slavery, serfdom, or both.

I didn't address native peoples or genocide in my previous comment. But, if I were to do so I would probably argue that it was mostly carried out in the 19th century and was not a feature of the founding but its not an area of history I feel well enough versed in to make a super strong argument off the top of my head.

But that's not even the point, I'm arguing that the OP is acting in bad faith by arguing that CHina's current crimes are excused by the bad behavior of the US 250 years ago. Modern day slavery and genocide on the scale that exists in Xinjang are inexcusable and unparalleled since WWII. The US has made moral progress and the CCP is committing crimes against humanity.

> Novgorod now live in Russia and believe they are Russians

Obviously. However their relation to the Novgorodian republic is about as strong as that of modern Italians to the Roman Republic. Also I think any such claims are absurd and absolutely irrelevant (imho this applies to Kiev/Novgorod and to Moscow).

> This "Ukraine is the true Rus.. nationalist narrative is just tiresome and incoherent

Sure, you're right. However this narrative seems to be mostly a response to Russian claims that Ukraine is not a nation and that it should not exist.

> Russians are some splinter northern Finno-Ugric goblins

Nah... Politically and somewhat culturally they are probably closer to the Mongols (I'm actually half serious, the authoritarian and imperialist tendencies ingrained in Russian culture were probably inherited from the Golden Horde rather than Kiev/Novgorod.)

Yeah, some of the more recent attempts (especially out of blizzard, ironically), come out of companies going "Hey, the MBA/NFL is super financially successful, we could be the MBA/NFL if this goes well, and since we have ultimate control of the game, we can even take a larger share than the central orgs for those sports", but without the grassroots support (even the NFL took decades to become large), it's only sustainable while they pour money in.
The League of Extraordinary [PHP] Packages
In theory, they can. Supplements are required to have labeling that "This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease." And they can't have advertising that says otherwise.

In practice, the FDA doesn't even begin to enforce this rule. Even if the company is careful in its language, they're not going to monitor stores to ensure that the staff isn't pushing the product, or contradict social media posts.

Smaller companies will just plain defy the rules. If it comes to the FDA's attention, they'll send a letter -- at which point the company will go bankrupt, and a new company will appear selling exactly the same product.

The FDA does take a fair bit of action, especially after somebody has gotten hurt, but they don't have anywhere near the budget required to monitor the $40 billion supplement market.

The question is whether this is a breakthrough and a significant milestone or not. It seems to me like your comment suggests that we have hit the "significant milestone" marker only when we have an actual electricity-generating fusion reactor, which I think diminishes the actual breakthrough that a positive net energy gain represents (if correct). It was long sought after, it has now been reached.

I think you are using the most uncharitable reading here. I had never heard of tianeptine before this article and yes if my doctor was to prescribe it I'd have concern now, but the article is not about it being worst than heroin. It's about the fact that a substance which can cause significant physical and psychological addiction is being sold in gas stations without any indication that it might be addictive.

If you look at the label in the picture, this is terrifying stuff that is marketed as a dietary supplement while causing enough symptoms that people are going to detox over it. Even if it's half or a tenth as bad as heroin, that's way too much considering how it's marketed.
Most modern phones have signed firmware for everything, so the FBI would have to go to the manufacturer and court order them to hand over the signing key. Or take advantage of a leaked key.

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

I've watched a lot of friends go through the same cycle: Initial excitement from an Adderall prescription which gradually gives way to tolerance and a mismatch between reality and their perceptions of Adderall as a miracle pill.

The non-stimulant medications have worked wonders for a lot of people I know.

The catch (and it's a big one) is that they generally don't work immediately. In fact, they can be kind of unenjoyable for the first weeks or months while they begin to work. This is the exact opposite timeline of stimulants, which puts a lot of people off. If you can gradually titrate up and you're willing to give it a multi-month trial before ruling it out, the non-stimulant medications can actually be quite good. Some times better than the stimulants at controlling impulses and improving cognition, even. First-time stimulant users can easily get sidetracked by focusing too much on distractions.

The other catch is that it's hard to objectively evaluate the positive changes when they happen gradually over the course of a month. A lot of Straterra (Atomoxetine) users will think the medication isn't working, but when you ask them to objectively walk through their daily routines and work performance they realize they've improved tremendously. For others, they don't realize the benefits until the quit the medication and lose the positives, at which point they're back for round 2 of titration.

I use the word 'mitigate' not 'solve' since closed source baseband modems are a problem. Cellular traffic is off in airplane mode, but the baseband could be exploited if someone wanted to find me AND knew which IMEI to target. Because the IMEI has never been associated to me, that is a challenge.

I will presume that at least half of these are issues with the Snowflake connectors until told otherwise.. those guys have a great core product, but the connectors are pretty dodgy in many cases I've seen.

Telling as well that DuckDB fixed your issue in a couple of days.. had snowflake support even demonstrated technical understanding of your request in that time? I guess it doesn't really matter if it takes them six months or more to fix the connector bugs anyway.
> so there isn't much of a moat there

Tesla has not succeeded by building 'moats' (an anti-competitive concept favoured by monopolists). Tesla has succeeded and continues to succeed by their pace of (real, not fake) innovation, and there have been no signs, in my opinion, that they are losing this edge. Rather, again in my opinion, they continue to pull away from the major car manufacturers on this front.

"Yeah, I'm thinking the solution is ban more stuff and then hand the reigns back to the regulators who have definitely not been subject to regulatory capture by the companies that started the opioid epidemic."

That is sarcasm. Prohibition has failed and the growth of grey area drugs ("designer" drugs) is one of the direct consequences. I am not arguing against regulation, I am arguing against prohibition. As JumpCrisscross brought up, they are very different things.
I've been managing a raid6 ext4 array with mdadm for 10 years. Started with 4 x 4TB disks and kept adding, up to 11 disks now. It works reliably and as designed. Had a few disk failures and replaced them without issues. That's one of the nice things about mdadm vs ZFS: you can add and remove disks from the array as you see fit, rather than being forced to upgrade all disks if you want to increase the size of your array.

>Why do you care if a number is greater than 100?

You could make a battle royal game well where people start taking damage when they are 100 units away from the center of the map.

>Why not have a data type that actually expresses that meaning?

It would add unneccessary complexity.

>Wait, are you hung up on implementation nonsense?

The base of what it being abstracted over is not nonsense.

>But that doesn't need to have a surface language boolean type that's privileged by the language design.

If exposing booleans lets people write simpler code then it makes sense to expose it instead of forcing complexity onto everything.

>Boolean is the abstraction.

No, booleans are a concept that the processor understands. Zero is false and nonzero is true. The processor has instructions like like logical and that can operate on these booleans. Branches can happen based off a bit in the status register. A bit has two states which maps to true and false. Booleans are a fundamental concept that is being built upon. The processor has a limited number of data types that it understands. Creating new data types is creating abstractions because those data types do not actually exist. You are simply hiding an actual data type in the new one you are creating.

> Does it only feel "very healthy" to be critical because you are being critical of the idea?

Who's critical of the idea? I literally said it's good progress. What 's not good, however, is exaggeration, sensationalism that puts potential views and hype before substance, and raising expectations for something that's still essentially just basic research.

This has nothing to do with bias of any kind. It's just poor journalism, bad form, and misrepresentation of genuinely great work. I simply expect better from a publication like FT. If that's the level of reporting we get from what I thought to be a somewhat reputable source, why even bother taking any publication serious anymore? It's not criticising the researchers or downplaying their work.

It's a critique of the media preventing the public from actually getting a realistic picture. I'd like to be educated and kept up-to-date, not mislead and hyped up.
