It's quite hard to contribute teledetected data in bulk to OSM. For instance we tried to contribute Africa forests back in 2016 and just gave up. Later I wanted to contribute my city's borders from an official source. We had a GEOJSON and ultimately had to draw it over that with the help of another contributor and fix all the data manually.

This doesn't look bad even though I don't trust Amazon, MS and Meta.
As the founder of TuSimple is Chinese, so I believe the name TuSimple comes from the former CCP General Secretary Jiang Zemin's angry rebuke of Hong Kong journalists as "too simple". This may not have political meaning, as the phrase is just a very popular internet meme in China, which young people find funny. However, though I'm not sure the concrete correlation with using a momentary meme as company name, but I personally would argue that it's not a serious company from day one and be bearish on its long-term value.
Cancers vary significantly in prognosis.

Canada has over double the number of deaths due to lung cancer and nearly double the deaths due to colorectal cancer compared to California.

Essentially cancer looks different in California than Canada. This makes drawing conclusions that there are thousands suffering unnecessarily extended end of life experiences difficult.

They can't (or don't want to) iterate every possible premium domain in advance, so they run the algorithm on domains that get added to the cart.

You're lucky you didn't register it at the regular price and start to build a brand for yourself that you find out a year later is considered premium. So the domain is then held hostage for that $3000.

"Nobody's made the case"

Tons of people are making the case.

https://www.spectator.co.uk/article/why-is-canada-euthanisin...

"Since then, things have only gotten worse. A woman in Ontario was forced into euthanasia because her housing benefits did not allow her to get better housing which didn’t aggravate her crippling allergies. Another disabled woman applied to die because she ‘simply cannot afford to keep on living’. Another sought euthanasia because Covid-related debt left her unable to pay for the treatment which kept her chronic pain bearable – under the present government, disabled Canadians got $600 in additional financial assistance during Covid; university students got $5,000."

So again: Why isn't the take that Thousands are dying to soon to save money?

"As long as we're trading conspiracy theories,"

Other than my "conspiracy" theory being main stream media reported and a simple statement backed by fact. Not your cockamamey bullshit:

"According to the report, the veteran called VAC seeking support for PTSD when the employee brought up medical assistance in dying, or euthanasia, unprompted."

Oh wait... that's the wrong one. That's not the Wheelchair one... hard to find the right one in the mountain of evidence.

https://nypost.com/2022/12/03/canada-offered-to-help-euthani...

"A paraplegic former Canadian military member is ripping her government, which offered to euthanize her after she complained about delays having a wheelchair lift installed in her home."

If main stream, reliable news sources are 'conspiracy theories' then I'm not sure what you consider real news.

"my conspiracy theory has a lot more going for it than yours does."

Other than the fact that my "theory" has backing evidence... and yours is shit pulled out of your ass. You really need to learn what a conspiracy theory is and when real life evidence makes it not a theory.
Yes, but since the US is a more right-wing country than the rest of the developed world (healthcare, death penalty, taxes...), that would mean the Democrats are "centrist" and Republicans "right." Characterizing based on relativity to the developed world seems much more fitting, since we're discussing it between people mostly from other developed countries and in a thread about Britain.
Sorry but Musk was an insufferable individual long before he came into his current wealth (the most prominent examples I can think of is the manner in which he exaggerated his credentials/education).

It might be more accurate to suppose that certain types of people are more likely to come into this sort of wealth.

Is “significantly” a problematic word in science communication, or is it just me?

In layperson terms, I think it means, “kind of a big deal.”

While in scientific terms I think it means “statistically detectable.”

> whose talent base was massively thinned by a Brexit Purity witch hunt

How many MPs were removed in this witch hunt? And why is it a witch hunt if the electorate is told "this is the most important question for at least a generation", they vote on it, and the representatives in parliament do their damnedest to prevent carrying out the thing voted for, and thus the electorate decide to remove some of them?

That sounds like democracy in action to me (and anti-democracy by those who tried to stymie Brexit).

Anecdotally, as an introvert, I prefer text to f2f, precisely because I know it will be judged on the words as chosen, and not on any extraneous cues. Criticism and adversarial responses are welcome; what annoys me no end in f2f is when people attempt to introduce some inaccurate interpretation of information from a paracommunicative channel to the discussion, instead of bothering to parse and respond to what I have actually said.

I feel that while the article makes some accurate remarks linking Victorian ethos to our current technological prowess, it's too simplistic to assume that today's scientific achievements are not instead part of a multicultural advancement continuing from millennia.

I did found very interesting the anecdote around 1820 with the shift from the "old guard" on the British Royal Society. But it led to me to wonder why such an importance is given to specialized knowledge. It's like reducing every problem to be solved by a depth-first search algorithm.
Yeah same here, it was sort of satisfying watching all my nvidia/windows buddies whine about bugs while it seemed to run buttery smooth on my amd/linux machine after they all shilled windows/nvidia "ok man good luck gaming on that setup, i hope it works out". It did lol, i gained frames!
Last company quietly began laying off around time I was leaving.

Simple really. Team of 5 engineers and one SDM. Minimum pay on the team was over $200K, with the manager closer to $400K.

Laid off the whole team. Put their service in KLO and handed it to another team to support.

Over $1.5MM in payroll savings alone. Easy peasy.

Great is a geographical term. Just as British people remain european after leaving the EU, they (those on the island of Great Britain) would remain part of Great Britain.

But do continue to regale us all from up high with your superior knowledge about economies and such, knowing things like why Great Britain is named as it is, that's just a trifling fact for plebs.
This is a strong signal of how the leetcode hiring process gives rise to a bad and inefficient work environment staffed with the wrong type of engineers, resulting in a highly experienced engineer to simply walk away.
If you use a subset of its features and don't rely on any particular plugins, yes, you can seamlessly convert between some tools — because in the end, it's just Markdown and some basic features like tagging and linking are shared.

"But my workflow is portable!" is really not a good response, when a workflow like OP's, or even one that depends on a few key plugins, becomes very much not portable. The more you buy into the ecosystem, the less portable your workflow will be. "Don't buy into the ecosystem" is not a reasonable take at all because that's the entire point of Obsidian over competition, the (mostly open-source) ecosystem that they have with the first-mover advantage.
Seems like a pretty big blow to freedom of speech seeing as this seems to have nothing to do with real time location data.

Specifically it has made a small group of US citizens extremely rich.

As a country, looking at all citizens, the US isn't exactly a stellar example of wealth distribution, median outcomes, education, or health delivery.
The Democrats and Republicans already represent a range of the political spectrum, they aren’t monolithic.

And the US isn’t a Parliamentary democracy, so Congresspeople don’t have to vote along party lines (and often don’t).

Officially the worst review of this great book yet!

The article fails again and again to mention what Wilson was such a horrible authoritarian against. The book is about the destruction of labor-organization, destruction of socialistic ideas/ideas. It was a purification towards capitalism & war-industrial forms.

It's astounding how far this article can go to talk up the threat of authoritarianism, can regurgitate some of the core what happened, but ignores so much of the conflict of why it was all happening, what the actual clashing ideologies were.

And it feels, in light of what the book is saying, false to accept the review's initial premise: that Wilson was acting progressive at all, through this time, through these events. Those were who he was busy jailing, best he could.

Alas, completely expactable that we'd get a review like this, from this website.

If the goal is to prevent the metropolitan area from unilaterally imposing itself on the rest of the province, all you really need for that is some kind of veto power. For example, a bicameral legislature in which one chamber is elected through some proportional system and actually writes laws, and the other one that represents all the various interest groups (under whatever representation formulas people find agreeable) and approves them.
No.

Ending excessive mass incarceration doesn't equate with "releasing all dangerous criminals back onto the streets".

Only a fool would think that.

A DNS challenge is equally vulnerable to MITM unless DNSSEC is used.

The whole point here is that an entity which wants to MitM connections between a browser and website can obtain a certificate if they can MitM connections between a CA's validator and that website. If that validation isn't cryptographically secured, it's moot whether it uses HTTP or DNS from a security perspective.

At their core, they’re also not that different than how REYES used to work with its micropolygon architecture and the way GI was bolted on. Given how old REYES is, you might find more reading material there.
Eh, it's not exactly as if Taylor Lorenz was a shining paragon of free speech. In fact, I think one could make the argument that her banning increases the freedom of speech on Twitter, given her well documented history of doxxing, making false accusations, and cancelling those she politically disagrees with.
Yes but the articles in question didn’t violate the quoted law. Sharing public information (the location of Phony Stark’s jet) is not doxxing.
This looks interesting.

Can't resist asking the inevitable question here: does this exist for emacs yet?
except it really hasn't. America was dominant after WW2 and has mostly been costing downhill since. in the past 2 decades inequality has increased, life expectancy is stagnant, obesity is up, cost of healthcare and education is up. public transit is worse than it was in the 1950s. it's pretty hard too find a metric on which the US is doing better on than Europe at this point

"Governments could provide generous subsidies to reduce the barrier for entry for companies"

Yes, because that went so well in the oil/coal/agriculture/chemistry/electric vehicles industries, creating world-endangering practices and authoritarian moguls. What could go wrong when the mogul can shut down your brain.

It is funny to say the least that even here, a forum of a venture capital company, people expect "the government", the people, to give free money to companies. Has any VC ever given 1 dollar without expecting not only ROI, but ownership? Why doesn't the government own 99.99% of ExxonMobil, Nestlé, John Deere, DuPont, Tesla—they have been pumping venture capital for years, over a hundred in some cases? Right, capitalism, or with other words, socialism for the rich and powerful: all gain, no pain; privatize profits, socialize losses.

This public-private model never worked, perhaps it was never intended to. It's origin is the East India Company, founded December 31, 1600, who, for all intents and purposes, owned the world for a brief moment. Brief mostly due to lack of digitalization and communication latency (London-Bengal around 80 days). The last 400 years have been a stretch of this model, pushing again and again the location of the sweatshops: from the dimly lit, fumes-filled street in the city, to the ghetto, to overseas, as Thomas Smythe [1], governor of East India Company, originally intended. It is particularly funny we cannot even truly imagine a dystopic future where a company gets to own the world, where ownage is the same as helding hostage, for the next 10,000 years since every company is inherently suicidal, another word for something which grows every quarter: cancer.

Here is another solution: have a $1 trillion fund, gather some governments or ask nicely the Norwegian oil fund, fund the research and possible product development for the next 10 to 20 years, and have 100% of the technology be open, owned by all, with 100% of the profits going back to the governments/people. Companies Need Not Apply. You say this has never happened, it is unnatural? Sure it did, you see it right here in action, in this very language that we are using: could you imagine how it would be to have a company license the word "the", to have to pay a subscription for using certain "bundles" of words. Programmatic brain input/output is even more fundamental than language.

He was quite wealthy when he faked those credentials. Of course, Musk was always quite wealthy, so that's not saying much.

Would he be a jerk in a universe where he wasn't a successful entrepreneur? Maybe, I'm willing to accept the premise. Would he be an increasingly paranoid and conspiratorial authoritarian? Probably not.

Do certain personality types tend to become wealthy more often than others? I'd say probably. But I don't think that's at odds with what I'm saying.
Yes, information leaks this way, if you redact a previously-JPEG-compressed image with a non-block-aligned black rectangle.

Consider the following case: You have limited previously knowledge of the unredacted document; for example, you know that it was a pure black-and-white document that was compressed as a standard color JPEG (not too unusual). Suppose further that in the block extending from (16, 16) to (24, 24) (exclusive), you wish to redact the single pixel at 23, 23, presumedly as the upper left corner of a larger black bar. Finally, suppose that the post-redacted image is losslessly compressed; this simplifies the argument, but is not strictly necessary.

In the way we've phrased this problem, there are only two values for the original color of the redacted pixel; it was black, or white. The rest of the pixels in the block are known in their encoded form (unredacted), but also known in their pre-encoded form (pure black or pure white, while JPEG compression will put them somewhere into dark gray or light gray, respectively). With all known pixels set to their pre-encoded form, each possible value of the redacted pixel can be considered, using (known, deduced, or guessed) JPEG compression parameters to regenerate the compressed block. Whichever value of the redacted pixel leads to the observed encoded values of the unredacted pixels is the correct value of the redacted pixel.

(In practice, the problem might be less constrained; and you might have multiple but less than a block of pixels redacted; these make it harder to make use of the leaked information, but do not change that some information has indeed leaked.)
