Yeah but that works through base64 data urls, which are clumsy. Epubs are zips of separate resources and that works great. We should have an equivalent for webpages and other similar documents—a digital-first competitor to pdfs. Or maybe just broader compatibility for epubs, such as first-class browser support.
Antarctica isn’t shown for the same reason the bottom of the ocean or the surface of the moon aren’t shown: there are no countries there.

Adding cells that don’t correspond to a country (like your proposed white circle) would make the map less accurate.

But I also had a landlady for several years in SF. And that's how I referred to her. I didn't think it too strange.

I have been mildly disappointed by Tartt's follow-up works, but even more disappointed by her pace. Since TSH was published in 1992, she's written only two other novels:

* The Little Friend, in 2002, which is set in her native Mississippi; and

* The Goldfinch, in 2013, which won big prizes (including a Pulitzer), but is to my tastes inferior to the other two.

Her once-a-decade pattern suggests another book should be coming along any year now, but who can tell?

I mentioned uptopic that mystery writer Tana French included an homage to The Secret History in the second book of her "Dublin Murder Squad" series. It's worth reading, but I'm not sure how "like" Tartt it really is.

What makes French's series interesting is the shifting points of view within the same (fictional) Dublin bureau -- the first book is from the POV of a given character, and then the second shifts to someone who was a supporting character in the first book, and so forth.
MSG Certainly does not abide by that.("you have to let ticket holders in")

I was banned entry [Chicago Theater] (not formally but at the door which was weird as that I was not trying to progress in) for refusing to encase my phone in the yonder pouch. Once denied, I requested a full refund of my ticket. I don't recall having the notice when I bought the ticket and the the ticket didn't state the phone casing. (This was chris rock)

I think Brexit can also be seen as an argument for more direct democracy: if there had been a referendum in the UK on one or more of the major changes in the EU treaties in the previous 25 years, I think it's likely that Brexit wouldn't have happened, or else that it would have happened much earlier with less damage as a result.
>In this case, they're trying to get their own law ruled unconstitutional so that SCOTUS will have to agree that the TX abortion law is, too.

I dont think that is true. The SCOTUS didn't rule on the constitutionality of Texas's citizen enforcement.

>The U.S. Supreme Court's ruling in Whole Woman's Health v. Jackson, leaves abortion providers without any possible defendants to sue in a federal pre-enforcement lawsuit challenging the constitutionality of SB 8, because there are no state officials charged with enforcing the law.[1]

Even if you run your own site, search engines and SEO work against you in many similar ways. Music has been run on a "pay for play" basis for many years now, it's creeping into aspects of pretty much every kind of entrepreneurial business.

If you don't participate in promotion on social media for your art or business, there is absolutely no contact with new customers unless you run a brick and mortar or maybe rent billboards.

In order to monetize streams on your own personal web site you'd likely need to run ads, charge for user accounts, and/or generate paid memberships, which is harder than pulling teeth even as a well known musician.

Despite the recent amazing advances in AI text models, they are still susceptible to attacks that take advantage of flaws in them to deceive them and manipulate their output. This is especially dangerous in the context of content moderation because it allows malicious users to get around AI models and text filters to post offensive content on the Internet with complete impunity.

This introductory blog post discusses several "NLP Attacks," as we refer to them, how to recognize them, and how to stop them.

> While it’s reasonable to disagree with this policy, it’s not really related to social dystopia […] While it’s reasonable to disagree with this policy, it’s not really related to social politics, so I think it’s dramatic to lament this in the vein of “today it’s this, tomorrow it will be getting banned due to Tweeting about your politics”, or whatever. I mean, yes, that may happen, but the only thing concerning about this case is the tech itself

Tolerance for use of the technology without restrictions is, arguably, a way in which this relates to social dystopia.

Technology doesn’t do anything on its own; people using it (and other people allowing other people to use it) in certain ways is always social.

If you define being hurt via the subjective mental state, then the statement indeed becomes trivially true, as you point out - but then it seems quite misleading to have a single word ("hurt") cover objectively measurable physical injury, qualia of pain that we understand to be a proxy for the former (and so we have, at least in the current revision of "Elimination of Harmful Language" lists, no qualms with terminology such as "phantom pain" which implies that pain which does not correspond to real injury is in some sense less legitimate), and purely psychogenic phenomena. This makes it seem like it is a matter of consistency or principledness to respond to the last category similarly to how you would to the first, even though they are not very alike.

> I think tying it up into legal language of restitution is a mistake, no one is advocating for legal liability or even any real punishment here.

What exactly is a "real punishment"? It seems like there are certainly calls for extrajudicial liability, insofar as there is no shortage of examples where people call for damage to be done to those who "engage in harmful behaviours" (referring to hurtful words) that is in excess of what would be necessary to stop the "harmful behaviours" and more seems to be aimed at causing disutility to someone who is taken to deserve it. I assume that a Stanford employee, in any capacity, who refuses to abide by this guideline and draws any amount of attention in the process would find themselves at the receiving end of the actions of a large number of people who would try to get them fired rather quickly. Is this not a real punishment?
Nope they always have a clause stating that they can remove you from the venue for what ever reason they want.

I'm OP and an author of this website. I don't know you, but thank you for sharing your thoughts and findings.

songy.design was a website domain I used for my UI/UX design portfolio, but now I use a personal name for it: adishasanic.com

typen.co was a writing app, basically a Notion competitor, which I founded, designed and bootstrapped to develop in 2016 and discontinued it 6 months after launch. There were 2000 users registered, but very few were using it, due to concerns about keeping notes in it and it was hard to compete with Notion and iA writer, which had also iOS and Android apps.

You can check what those websites were using Internet Archive: https://archive.org

I don't know how long a life Veonid will have, but I have much more experience now in product design and Veonid is more for publishing than for writing and storing content, so it does not have the same obstacles as Typen. It's not a development exercise, my goal is to keep working on it for years because I believe there should be a way for anyone to create their own space from which to present themselves and publish anything, without their content being branded by platform and restricted for anyone who didn't sign up to platform.

> Working against one's own interest because one believes in a higher principle is a good thing. It's what we call "being principled".

It can be a good thing while we regularly and objectively evaluate a principle's worth. We humans have a history of allowing principles to obtain rigidity and the diminished outcomes that follow. We also tend to allow principle creep w/o sufficient examination.

Visa Proposal Would Bring Ethereum Users One Step Closer to Being Their Own Bank
> if I have my own server, but use Gmail as client, would google still read my data?

The answer here would be "yes", at least from the "is it possible" viewpoint.

> If you have migrated away

Never had to migrate away, because never utilized one of the "free providers". When I purchased my own domain (circa 2001) I self hosted my email from the start, and it is still self hosted.

Do note that if you communicate with anyone who uses gmail (or one of the other providers, although they are fading) that google (or the other provider) can "read your email" -- as in they can read the part you sent to their user, and the replies their user sent back to you. Making it hard to fully avoid them being able to read some subset of your emails.
Thanks for the link.

Notice that there is no claim here that it is a safety issue.

If MSG fears certain employees may reveal things it does not want known, it should constrain those employees from contact with the public within its venues.

Lolz aside, as an engineer, the main turnoff for me is not the privacy, though that is a concern, but the introduction of complexity. I like my house like I like my software: clean and minimalistic :)

I have witnessed software development jobs being threatened by one thing or another for the last 20 years. At this point I see the jobs moving from CA to states with sane politics/CoL (or even to Europe, at least judging from the latest layoff trends) courtesy of WFH as a much more credible threat.

AI/ML is the only domain which I find completely unlike regular software development. It requires more than simply common sense and love for computers. Possibly even a completely different mindset/psychological traits. I'm not sure I'd be able to do it even with years of data engineering experience.

I'd feel much more secure about my future in software if I had a stronger background in stats and some formal ANN training.
I'll give you the slow, but "modern" frontend is a breeze. Webpacker (yes, the deprecated one, newer solutions are worse) handles React beautifully, and my graphql API definition gets seamlessly converted into typescript types. If anything, it often feels even easier than the code sharing I've experienced in node-land.
Crypto is "just a tool!" the same way crack cocaine is "purely recreational". It might be possible in theory, and there's that rare individual that can pull it off, but the reality is most people eventually end up in rehab or dead from an overdose, and the industry attracts the worst kind of people to run it.
Linux Mint is based on Ubuntu/Debian but doesn't have Snaps.
More or less it's what I do except that I generate the password with a password manager (one of the Keepass family) and store it there.

Rationale:

1. I'm not tied to a browser, even if it is Firefox.

2. I can use the password with any other browser on the same or any other device.

Definitely get a mid drive with torque sensing, otherwise your just riding a goofy moped. With a torque sensing mid drive it’s like riding a bicycle with bionic legs.

You can also build your own from a regular bicycle and a tsdz2 motor. Someone in Portugal wrote a much better and open source firmware for it that makes it really nice to use.
This is the way it should be. People need to have skin in the game and this is in line with my suggestion on how Twitter can solve both its revenue problem and its content moderation problem all at once.

The idea is to auction off the rights to ban/allow controversial users. Twitter collects money for selling this right and the people that feel the strongest about whether or not someone’s speech should be allow on the platform can have a direct say in that decision—all they have to do is put their money where their mouth is. If they don’t, then it’s obviously not worth it to them to have someone be banned or allowed on Twitter.

Let the free market sort out what speech is acceptable. It’s dynamic and is a better representation of what society actually wants at any given time compared to any other system.

Elon should embrace this especially as he just found out that the government was doing exactly this by paying Twitter to censor people. Why not just open it up to everyone?
They added a correction, they didn't fix the article. It still reads "But lobbying by the nation's largest technology interests seems to have kept the bill parked on her desk for months, where it could remain until it dies on Dec. 28." in the lede, which is flatly incorrect per the correction[1].

Inaction by the governor will pass the law, not veto it. Ars only makes that clear (and barely so) in the correction blurb at the bottom.

[1] At least as phrased. I'm certainly no expert on New York State legislative process.
They do already :) Fwiw, Tesla already utilizes active (liquid) cooling as passive (air) cooling is insufficient even without insulation; further, air+liquid cooling is still not enough so refrigeration and heat exchanger is also used to remove thermal energy. Removing passive cooling and adding insulation would require refrigerated cooling to be used for a far greater percentage of time (more weight, more energy). It’s simply easier to heat the batts in cold than it is to cool them. Not to mention there’s worst case failure modes—too cold = dead batt, too hot = combustion.
Government budgets are finite: prioritization is not a fallacy but comes built-in, as anyone who has written a grant application knows.

The key to success with tabs in any language is simple: Don't use alignment.

Instead, only use indentation.

It is interesting to note that Black-formatted code uses indentation only and never uses alignment. It would be perfectly compatible with tabs, unlike Google-formatted code which relies heavily on column alignment.
> Your mistake is thinking that it is YOUR internet connection. It's not. It belongs to your ISP. If it belonged to you, you wouldn't have to pay for it every month. A lot of ISPs specifically forbid running a web server from your connection. Comcast is one of them

You're not wrong, but as far as I know there is no human on earth that owns "their own internet connection", everyone's network connects to an upstream network. Every upstream service has rules their customers must abide by.
> a Master’s in CS really isn’t worth it if you’re just looking for a pay raise

Nope.

> the degree will mostly be worthless by the time I graduate

A Master's degree's value is not in the information-content you managed to download into your brain. Its value doesn't have to expire as a domain advances. As with anything academic, most of the value depends on how much sweat and time you put into the thing (independently of how good the classes or profs are), and if you do it right, your competitive advantage will be in having learned how to learn better or faster.

> The degree would mostly be for personal knowledge/fulfillment

Assuming you can afford to study, and to do it well, this is the only thing you need to focus on.

We definitely are there already. I can't comfortably talk about weather anymore, because after either side mentions anything interesting - such as it being surprisingly cold, or hot, or snowy, or windy - I feel tempted to say something about climate change. Being risk averse, I stop myself and say nothing, but this creates an awkward pause and ends the conversation.

Do people really see having electronic/electric locks as a rational thing?
Musk has said that posts from people who pay him $8 a month will be prioritised, and people they block will be downmodded. Now, Musk says a lot of things, few of them true, but that sort of pay-for-attention mechanic is extremely corrosive to the functioning of a social network.

And then of course there’s just the constant arbitrary nonsense, the increasing flakiness of twitter… as someone who rather enjoyed twitter, I’m pretty much expecting it to die and have moved accordingly.

The problem is that her eviction has no case, so might as well weaponize the liquor license to arrive at a similar outcome. They got Capone on tax evasion. Picking a fight with sophisticated legal practitioners seems…poorly thought out?

High level, perhaps private venues shouldn’t be able to ban someone from a venue simply because of who employs them? Perhaps craft the legislation around annual patrons served.
In the book on the history of Rome, Livy states : “Again, the monopoly of salt, the price of which was very high, was taken out of the hands of individuals and wholly assumed by the government. Imposts and taxes were removed from the plebs that they might be borne by the well-to-do, who were equal to the burden: the poor paid dues enough if they reared children.”
I think you might be thinking of FunkWhale re: "pods". They're just called instances in Mastodon.

Although your point is taken, instances can be a stumbling block.

This isn't what "open sourced" means.

Photoshop is proprietary software with a well documented file format anyone can read and write.

It's okay to make and promote and sell proprietary commercial software. That's what you are doing, be proud and clear about it. Pretending your efforts have anything to do with free software is deceptive.
It's only Turkey, Panama, and Egypt that have a split in them, as they are places that have notable straits going through them. The UK is handled the same as Indonesia.

The weird thing about Wales and Scotland is that they complete independently in sports stuff not that they are excluded here, they are integrated parts of the UK with the same amount of autonomy as a large U.S. city.
The author is making a globally-sweeping claim in service of their opposition to "government planning". If their claim is trivially disproven by looking at countries with similar or greater quality of life around the world, that suggests that this is in fact not a universal truth but a deliberate policy outcome.

The fact that it's also not true even within the United States (currently in some places, everywhere prior to WWII) similarly confirms that this isn't a deep truth but rather a convoluted restatement that most people will end up using the option which is favored by policy.
