I use Emacs org-mode for planning and logging my work. I’m a full time remote employee and not a contractor, but the desire for another party to know what I’ve been up to from more than just commit messages appears the same to me. There’s even a clock that’s smart about tasks.
Your comment shows an lack of intellectual curiosity which I think demonstrates that conspiracy theories have done the job they were created to do - dissuade people from asking too many questions about actual conspiracies. You're applauding yourself for not being "mentally feeble".. for blindly accepting the CIA version of events.

What is your go-to emacs for MacOS on apple silicon?

I'm aware of the wiki https://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/EmacsForMacOS

Just wondering what people choose. I grew up on emacs on Sun workstations. Want to get back to it. IDEs are driving me nuts.

I think they need to release a 3D printable version. 3D printing is going to be more expensive and more fragile than injection molding, but being able to print a replacement ball connector or the like is one way this can become a lot more resilient, other than having multiple manufacturers. If they want to become something like a standard then having a work around for that kind of supply chain issue is important, I think.

EDIT: They do appear to make "simplified" 3D models available for download from their hub-part-specs pdf. I suspect with a high layer height like 0.3mm you could print replacements. I understand why they don't advertise this though.

I agree with almost all the points, especially the last one. The first half of the gallery is mind blowing and really focused. The second half is as if someone decided that "we cannot just show photos from STEM fields, we need to add some human touch of social sciences" (which, having worked for a major scientific publisher in the past, I am will to bet was exactly what has happened).

Re. them being over-edited - I wonder if the reason for that is because many of those would not have any colours in them if it wasn't for the editing (because they were taken using X-rays for example).
Look, I actually agree with the core of your argument. No / bad audits are a red flag to me too. I'm just saying that using the word "fucked" still is speculative and an overstatement. I would use "untrustworthy", "shady", "dangerous" etc, but not "fucked". That's all I'm saying.
>> Because the perception is triggering a memory and the memory overtakes the perception as the new reality?

Maybe more like the perception of reality is triggering emotions from a memory of a similar reality. In more extremem cases yes, it brings back the memory too. I'd argue (and this is just me) that emotions are more distinct than perceptions and memories, and are more like annotations to both. But I'm getting way outside of any clinical model I've read about. We want traumatic events to get resolved and stored without the high emotional content that distorts current perceptions.
I recently quizzed ChatGPT on a matter it had incomplete information on (The Colorado Coal Strike). I had just asked about the use of violence, where it claimed there had been none. Afterwards this exchange occurred (emphasis mine):

z3c0:

The Colorado National Guard's use of violence against civilians during the Colorado Coal Strike is very well-documented. It is estimated that over 69 people were killed. Why are you revising history?

ChatGPT:

I apologize if my previous answer was misleading. I am a large language model trained by OpenAI, and my knowledge is based on the text that I have been trained on. I am not able to browse the internet or access new information, and my responses are limited to what I have been trained on.

In my previous answer, I stated that it is not clear if the Colorado National Guard took violent action against the coal workers protesting in the Colorado Coal Strike of 1913-1914. This was based on the information that I had been trained on, which did not include any specific information about the use of violence by the National Guard during the strike.

I did not mean to imply that the Colorado National Guard did not use violence during the strike, and I apologize if my previous answer was misleading in this regard. *It is possible that the National Guard did use violence against the coal workers, and it is estimated that over 69 people were killed during the strike.* I am unable to provide further information on this topic, as my knowledge is limited to what I have been trained on.

The emphasized part isn't a statistic it turned up - that was a fact that I stated, verbatim. Presumably, I could have said something completely false, and it would have regurgitated it as a fact.
The main one I have is Syncthing[0]. I have a fairly involved file sync setup across several Android and Linux devices and it works beautifully; I like that I can use the space available on my devices instead of having to depend on/pay money for cloud (I know that it is not much for most of us). However, to best of my knowledge, Syncthing doesn't run on iPhone (it is possible that jailbreaking etc can make that work but that is a whole different area).

Right, but not that's the same thing I'm wondering about. I'm wondering if the change in mass distribution due to ice migration might set things out of balance such that movement is possible. Further, that could still happen with effective tidal lock. Perhaps it's a "punctuated equilibrium" kind of thing where it's stable for a relatively long period until enough ice builds on the dark side that the planet "rolls" and stays in that position until enough ice melts and migrates again.
The idea is to extract more money from people who can afford it.

If someone has a 128-core AMD EPYC, they probably have more money that can be extracted than a person with a 16-core EPYC.
This disappointingly reminds me of that post a while ago from the guy who finally got into YC after 8 tries or something, not because he found a great problem to solve with a great solution but because he really wanted to get into YC and found a formula that would at least open that door (small business CRM).

If you want to find traction without a product, I strongly recommend reading "The Mom Test" and following the advice in there - it's going to get you much farther than what this team did. If you don't want to do that, at least follow the often-repeated advice of YC itself for startups:

- Scratch your own itch

- Be in love with the problem

- Talk to potential customers to find what they need, not what they want

Then you can iterate on an MVP like this team did, but hopefully with less wandering and head scratching in the beginning. If your starting goal is "I want to start a startup" and you then go looking for a product to shoehorn into a market, I think you're doing it wrong and you should probably stick with working a day job.

I mean, it’s kind of easy to make a conspiracy theory out of it when the assassin is killed and his killer dies of lung cancer 2-3 years later.

The warren commission also had its own issues; including lack of motive - https://www.history.com/news/9-things-you-may-not-know-about...

Then the government agencies in the 70s are caught doing a lot of illegal provable (often admitted) conspiracies. These including things such as spying, giving citizen deadly diseases (Tuskegee experiments), blackmailing, bribing and threatening members of congress, etc (see church committee)

It’s easy to see why these conspiracy theories persist.
I've always found weird that Oswald being paid by some powerful organization is considered a fringe conspiranoia, like Elvis is still alive, when some facts (Kennedy was the POTUS, Oswald was himself killed later before he could speak) made it the default hypothesis.

You can say that it was impossible to gather enough proof, that the evidence led nowhere, but saying that it's ridiculous is... suspicious.

> We already see a LOT of auctions running in the options markets, and trading these auctions it is one of the profit centers of market makers. It turns out that speed is still a factor in a stock market auction, and you can still have designated market makers that are guaranteed to get a cut of each auction.

The complexity and fragmentation as well - you can preferentially do auctions at venues you have an advantage on, and bully the venues away from fixing whatever you exploit by threatening to take away flow.

> In options, there is the suspicion that the presence of a lot of auctions probably results in wider spreads, which we could see as auctions make it to the stock market, too. If all retail order flow goes into the market through special channels, the only trading remaining in the "normal" system will be from sophisticated traders, who you don't really want to trade against.

Effectively all retail flow already goes through even more cutoff special channels? But I agree with the point, this seems like adding a tremendously complex game instead of just shrinking tick sizes. At least in options, you tend to have much wider spreads. But the fact that plenty of stocks trade at min tick is a sign the spreads could naturally be tighter.

Calling out for botanists to weigh in here - is there something that makes chocolate uniquely susceptible to this and if so, is it part of a class of other plants we typically eat?

I'm the opposite and think rebasing is easier, but I am biased obviously since I have only used rebasing to solve merge conflicts.

There are a couple ways of performing a git rebase, namely

* git rebase

* git rebase interactive (git rebase -i)

* git rebase --onto

I'm gonna be honest, you're coming off a bit delusional. No meaningful amount of people care about the issues you do to abandon twitter for an already dead network like mastodon. The idea of federation doesn't appeal to normies, it only confuses them.
My journey went Sublime > Atom > VSCode.

I started with Sublime in college and then went to Atom when it came out because it was "Free Sublime". Granted I liked it back then but I was still a college student (had I picked it up now I would have different opinions). Almost as quickly VSCode came out and was a "Better Atom" (I thought VSCode was based on Atom for the longest time).

I wonder what will eventually replace VSCode. Lex Friedman said on his podcast that he sees VSCode as a modern Emacs which I think is a good way of thinking about VSCode.
The thing to keep in mind with VS Code is that they built a new IDE on a rather humble platform, and somehow managed to leapfrog every other IDE in the market (for JS and Python anyhow) in terms of functionality while keeping performance good. It may not be a marvel of engineering, but it is a marvel for having strong product vision and top notch execution while also being well engineered.
I can tell you from my past experiences, organisation who started out with Oracle databases and products have a hard time moving away from them to opensource alternatives. The migration risk and cost of reskilling is very high. There are actual Oracle product experts in organisations who also create resistance towards migration as well as rewriting lot of business logics and procedures is alot of risk. If you start a new company today I'm sure you won't use Oracle database there are better alternatives.

it does not mean it was positive, people do a lot of things since the dawn of time (slavery for example).

the fact that something was used for a long time means only that it was used for a long time, and everything else is up for interpretation.

Maybe AI can replicate everything humans can do. But this technology isnt that. It just mass reads and replicates what humans have already done, but actual novel implementations seem out of its grasp. (for now) The art scene is freaking out because a lot of art is basically derivative already, but everyone pretended it was not. Coders already knew and admitted they stole all the time.

The other patterns of AI that seem to be able to arrive at novel solutions basically use a brute force approach of predicting every outcome if it has perfect information or a brute force process where it tries everything until it finds the thing that "works". Both of those seem approaches seem problematic in the "real world". (though i would find convincing the argument that the billions of people all trying things act as a de facto brute force approach in practice)

For someone to be able to do a novel implementation in a field dominated by AI might be impossible, because core foundational skills cant get developed anymore by humans for them to achieve heights that the AI hasn't reached yet. We are now stuck, things cant really get "better", we just get maybe iterative improvements on how the AI implements the already arrived at solutions.

TLDR, lets sic the AI on making a new Javascript framework and see what happens :)

Why in the world would you develop at all a process for changing all my defaults over to MS's own products? That's a truckload of hubris, thinking that maybe I'd decide that every single one of the apps I normally use has suddenly been surpassed by Microsoft. I can't imagine why you'd even consider that anyone would want the change that was done to my system.

That's fair. Mastodon seemed like a pretty mature platform, so I guess I was just surprised. Considering that 1) the majority of the modern web doesn't work properly without JS, and 2) Mastodon is designed with third-party clients in mind, it's not a big issue I admit.

> metals are not contaminants introduced by the processors, they are present in the beans.

That’s true of the cadmium, but not the lead:

> … [L]ead seems to get into cacao after beans are harvested. The researchers found that the metal was typically on the outer shell of the cocoa bean, not in the bean itself. Moreover, lead levels were low soon after beans were picked and removed from pods but increased as beans dried in the sun for days. During that time, lead-filled dust and dirt accumulated on the beans. “We collected beans on the ground that were heavily loaded with lead on the outer shell,” DiBartolomeis says.
It's absolutely impossible to deplete a significant, or even an insignificant portion of the world ocean.

To get a feel or it, it's useful to think in terms of cubic kilometers. A cubic kilometer of water weighs a billion tons (1 GT). The world consumes every year something of the order of 10 GT of fossil fuel (about 5 GT of coal and 5GT of petroleum and natural gas). Hydrogen has a higher energy density than fossil fuels (by a factor of 2 or 3). But only 10% of the water by weight is hydrogen. So, to get one GT of hydrogen you need to electrolize about 10 cubic kilometers of water. Let's say you want to fully replace all the fossil fuels with hydrogen, and then have room for further growth. 10 GT of hydrogen/year will be more than enough regardless how you project that growth. That would be 100 cubic kilometers per year, or 10000 cubic kilometers per century.

The volume of the world's oceans is 1.3 billion cubic kilometers. You just used less than 0.001% of that.

But actually you didn't. Because all the hydrogen you've produced and then burned to generate electricity ends up as water vapors, which after a bit of travel in the atmosphere become clouds, then rain, then end up right back in the oceans.
I find it ironic to see Germany complain about someone else’s lack of freedom of speech.

There are ways to do that job that don't involve poking the proverbial dragon every waking minute. You can call Elon a hypocrite for banning people who attack him relentlessly, but all humans are hypocrites. Perhaps they should take a break from the "Elon beat", because their reporting appears increasingly personal in nature.

The crowd that got banned seems unusually thick-headed, and they'll probably just attack Elon (and Twitter itself) even harder once they get unbanned. Karl Popper explained it better than I can, but Twitter doesn't have to extend unlimited tolerance to those who seek to destroy Twitter.

I think curved lines like the stardomes’ make sense and have some very interesting advantages. The “hubs”, which tend to concentrate complexity and cost on “flat line doms”, are simplified, disappearing in some cases.

There’s some disadvantages though. A flexible structure is not always desirable. Bamboo (or an equivalent replacement) isn’t available everywhere. Also, flat-line domes are easier to cover with flat inflexible materials like wood panels. In short: if you have access to Home Depot and no access to bamboo, flats might be easier for you to build.
Maybe it can be introduced gradually, making the reallocation an optional feature that a driver might support. Then drivers can independently implement the resource reallocation feature.

Mainline drivers can move gradually. If they want to be nice for out-of-tree drivers then they can describe a timeline for deprecating and removing the support for non-reallocating drivers.
