And yet...

The free tools that come included with that 3D printer you just bought will slip and ruin at least one of the hex nuts holding the FEP to the vat and you will have to spend nearly $100 for a new vat when you could have instead spent $45 on a set of Wera hex tools, not trashed the hex screw, and have a damn nice set of hex tools forever. (And your bike will thank you as well.)
All must be equal, then we will be free! Use violence if necessary, it will leads us right into utopia.

I'm losing track on when we should trust cops to ignore or doubt things and when we shouldn't.
An alternative to relying on your static IP (and all that comes with it, like needing a strong firewall and awareness/monitoring of activity there) would be to use the Cloudflared proxy/tunnel. https://github.com/cloudflare/cloudflared
Go to any ski area, mountain bike park, or rock climbing area within a two hour drive of a large city and your concerns will be alleviated.
I kinda get what he's saying and there isn't an easy answer. Things done bit by bit are often different than things done at large scale. Especially when automated by tech taking out the individual human element. The nuance between people making informed decisions vs algorithms dictating action off generalized heuristics can get muddy.

Just think of anonymized user data. Individually that info isn't really all that important, but taken at massive scale it can lead to worrying trends. Consider something like the Cambridge Analytica scandal.
Did it do too much, or was it too opinionated and bloated? Obsidian is neither!

Obsidian devs have shown repeatedly that they understand why Obsidian is successful - just look at how they released this. No canvas-specific core software changes, just a new plugin that can be disabled.
My usual approach is to comment stuff out while debugging/developing. Works well.
Controversial take but I absolutely don’t see the point of reintroductions. Ecosystems are dynamic equilibrium. Reintroductions are just a different kind of man-made arbitrary modification.

Loss of biodiversity is a good indicator that something wrong is happening but biodiversity in and of itself is not a particularly interesting aim. The mechanism at play in nature will ensure a return to diversity if things are left to themselves.
If customer has an established relationship with a seller already, seller can put this link on a website where products are presented. It's not polished, but it's fine.
Jumping from "attorneys pursuing active litigation" to anyone working with such persons, and from "litigation against the Company" to "any ongoing litigation against subsidiaries despite date of purchase or litigation" makes it far from clear. Also selling the ticket despite such a "straightforward policy" seems like it may bring up a tricky contract issue.
> Are you saying that this product allows us to analyse works of the past in new light?

Both figuratively and literally, given that it allows you to control the lighting :)

> Because, We can't create new works of the past and we can't remix them to make something originally genuine with accurate intent.

I'm not sure what you mean by genuine, but changing the intent is the whole point.

> So... what is it you're saying exactly?

Exploring historical art from new perspectives is interesting and valuable.
Remember Obsidian is fine with files coming in from outside. You can just write text into its folders, using anything.

Not sure how to do this on Windows any more, but on MacOS the trick is to use a Shortcut that captures your whatever (text input, image, web page converted to Markdown, file) and writes it into the appropriate vault and optional subfolder.

Can also capture to, e.g., Downloads folder, and have a cron move it to the vault. (I do this when capturing web pages so Browser can't write outside Downloads.)

Anything that can capture to a file path, can capture to Obsidian.
"we cannot ignore the fact that litigation creates an inherently adverse environment"

For discussion, let's take MSG's statement in good faith, and assume the attorney was notified twice.

Are there legitimate reasons to do this other than a "pretext for doing collective punishment on adversaries who would dare sue MSG" as suggested?
1. You can still have reviews,
decription of content, etc etc. But it doesn't have to ce coupled to payment processing and distribution of the content.

This significantly lowers the bar for what is required to have a "webshop" like page.
For example: a Reddit post can have a product description, with payment links directly in the description, and reviews in the comments. How convenient is that?

2.

> What the heck am I paying for?

I assume you accessed their example link. In practice you would have clicked the link from a page describing what you are paying for.

I'm not affiliated with the product. Just found this a really cool and innovative idea.
Ok, but right here, in this context, everybody else in the thread is quite obviously referring to extra-terrestrials.

I'm happy to see WP finally supporting a DB other than MySQL. Maybe they'll support PostgreSQL as well.
I recently inherited a much nicer table saw than the second hand Harbor Freight one I had before, and it was quite a revelation how much easier it was to get good results with it and how much safer it feels to use. I'd definitely agree on that one.

The other category where I like to spend more is tools I hate to use. Some things I have specifically for jobs that suck and anything that makes those jobs easier is worth it in my mind. I have a nice drain snake, and the most expensive toilet plunger I could find for this reason.
The people that wrote that article don't address claims of the original study. They cite academic work that divides the country into four groups: the middle class, the rich, business interests and non-business interests. (This is not a covering set, which is already a red flag.)

They show the rich and middle class agree on bill outcomes the vast majority of the time, with a 10% spread when they don't (e.g., 45% - 55%, from the article).

As an example, they point out the rich are more supportive of public campaign financing than the middle class. This is a second red flag: It is unlikely that people that use their money to influence legislative outcomes are more supportive of banning the practice than the general population.

The original study claimed that (1) lobbyists and oligarchs are basically writing legislation and deciding who gets elected, and (2) there is no correlation between popular opinion and actions of congress. You can't rebut that by claiming that the 90-99% usually agree with the 50-90%, and congress doesn't really seem to favor one of those groups' opinions over the other.

It is as though I said that, once confounding factors are accounted for, there's no correlation between listening to rock music and catching cancer, and the rebuttal comes back as "Well, Eagles fans and Jay-Z fans both get lots of cancer, but half the outlier cancers are more common amongst Hotel California fans, so electric guitars must be carcinogens!"

To rebut the original claim, the academic study would need to either reproduce the original study (showing statistical irreproducibility) or dive into causality. They could look into the actions / opinions of lobbyists and people like the Koch brothers, Soros and the ULine family. The could trace how many line items those groups are sneaking into bills, and whether the popularity of the line item matters at all to its success. (Hint: Most voters don't form an opinion on section 1.35.2.456.63356-b that was introduced at 2am the night before the 10,000 page military appropriations was passed by voice vote.)

Anyway, the damage control piece was an interesting read. Thanks for the link.
Even if that was the same population as crafting this policy, the vast majority of those identities are not “far left” by any sane definition.
The two ideas are not incompatible. Consider that it’s much easier to drag and drop a list of faceless names and categories into a “Deny” list on a GUI, than it is to argue to a mother’s face that she cannot attend an even with her daughter’s Girl Scout troop because she happens to work at the same firm as some opposing lawyers. There is, or was, a higher cost associated to this action. Denying people access was OK back when you had to really care about it. The easier it gets, the more likely you are to exclude people that it just sounds like a good idea to exclude. The issue, of course, is that this leads to a world where your child gets excluded from playgrounds and theme parks because you had the wrong opinion on the Internet back in your 20s. Maybe you were too woke, or maybe you weren’t woke enough. We’d all be happy to forget about it after a few years, except that facial recognition databases won’t let you forget about it until the day you and all your progeny have died.

The flavor breaks down and so does the food.

For example: boil potatoes for too long and more water gets into it. It'll kill the flavor and texture, so that the food tastes watery and the texture becomes soup-ey and wet.
You can't judge the outcome of elections by standards under which they were not held. Popular-vote-wins would result in very different campaign efforts, and different voting patterns.

It's like holding a baseball game and then, after the fact, declaring that the winner isn't the team with the most runs, but the one that got the most hits. Sure there's some correlation there, but both teams would have played differently if they'd known that's how they'd be judged, so you can't be sure who would have won if they'd known that's how they were supposed to be playing.
Though perhaps this makes a civil suit more likely to succeed?

I love when people unite technology and art. Its duality reminds me of the of the the useful and the pretty, the male and the female. I thank those who were involved in its creation as it is a nice concept.

I liked the controls, they are impressively intuitive. It could have more knobs, or more individual movement of the elements of the scene so that we could have even more flexibility.

I can't help but notice the bitterness associated with men in this piece though. It seems to indicate that men taint the image of women with an incomplete representations of their personhood when they manifest their "Male Gaze" into art.

Since I am one of those wretched beings I will defend my perspective: men of these times saw things worth preserving. You might not like it but that's not the point.

And it seems that we overloaded the servers with submissions or something because I got an error submitting my picture. It was a nice experience still.
Anecdotal but having visited a few countries that have national IDs, they use them with just about anything worth having. Tickets, SIM cards, Service Agreements, you name it.

I live in Uruguay and you need to use your ID very often when doing commercial stuff.
when they stand to gain / justify bloated budgets, they are probably lying. when they have nothing to gain, and contradict the worlds least reliable source, they are probably not lying.
I follow this sentiment. Buy nice or buy twice
We have it set up to only run after you've opened a PR. You shouldn't run into the issue often that way because if you're opening a PR then all your big immediate changes are already committed so you won't be pushing another commit until someone reviews which will be after black has already finished.
Yeesh. This whole thing sounds like some gross commercialization of a problem blown out of proportion, that doesn’t really work, hurts honest customers, and only gets enforced due to some sunk cost fallacy going on in the minds of the venues/entertainers that were duped into using this “product” by the IP attorneys that are throwing bad ideas out there to justify the size of their salaries. I have no doubt the same sort of thing is going on with the linked article, only it’s a different branch of the legal team involved this time.
Government agencies all are nominally centrally controlled by the elected goverenment. Any sustained abuse by those agencies is either severe neglect by that government or intended.
Where I live in Portugal, close to the Aveiro lagoon, there are now lots of storks, flamingoes, wild ducks and other marine birds. I don't remember all this variety and quantity when I was a kid.

Every time I marvel at a flock of these birds I keep thinking that perhaps the conservation efforts paid off.
Biggest worry would be smashing your knuckles on something when it gives up not the thing exploding.
> Please show me references suggesting that anyone calls copies of the master recording slaves

The student in question was a fan of Pharrell Williams, and started to understand the master/slave terminology in the recording industry through him. He was very distressed to find the field he wanted to get into, CS, was doing the same thing. Here's a comment I made about some of the research I did: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=26497027

From that comment:

> "The word master has two meanings: 1. The original recording made in the studio is called a master, because it is the master (meaning controlling entity) from which all copies are made (the machines making the copies are called slaves—master/slave; get it?). ... 2. The word master also means a recording of one particular song. Thus, you might say an album has “ten masters” (meaning ten selections) on it. These individual recordings are also called cuts, because of the historical fact that each selection was “cut” into vinyl."

So it refers to control (master/slave) rather than expertise (master's degree).

> So, instead of avoiding a very common word in several industries, you could actually teach students the proper etimology.

But I teach CS and not linguistics, so etymology doesn't fit the curriculum. Curious what would you say given the research in my comment history.

> Instead, this is a list created by some small committee who was given the power to impose this on the rest of the Stanford University organization.

Look at the committee governing the IT department at Stanford: there's representation from across the University. Committees only have power through the rest of the organization. Are you saying this is a rogue committee? Are you saying they also have enforcement power over this list? Are you saying that no other committee's regulations override this list? Sorry, but I don't see any world where a small committee in the IT department holds sway over the entire org. What's more likely is that they've been given a specific remit by a larger committee with actual power, and this list is a work product of that committee. It only has as much power over you as you're willing to give it.

> As I said, those that came up with this absurd list full of mistakes and false notions have every right to publish and maintain it (well, they should correct some of the more obvious falsehoods at least). I also have every right to let as many people as I can know that it is ridiculous and makes false assertions.

Great, agreed. Stanford is exercising their free speech, you are exercising your free speech. As it should be.
My intuition says no. I don't think we'll be detecting exoplanet asteroid strikes anytime soon for instance.
He can't believe that kids in racially integrated environments are efficient thinkers largely concerned with simple priorities. Is Billy a bully? Should I pick Alice first in the game on the sandlot? Can Jose help me with this math problem?
Easy: If the cops tell me water is wet I trust them. If they tell me to not trust my own eyes when they do something wrong I don't.

Cops in the US operate under perverse incentives. Knowing these incentives will help you to decide when you can consider trusting their statements and when you can not.
And just to show that nothing is straightforward, if you were to refer to a Canadian as an American, they will definitely make a point to correct you.
I mostly follow this, with the additional criteria of how often the tool will be used affecting the level of quality of my initial purchase.

“Buy once, cry once” is basically the opposite of your philosophy, and my personal philosophy lies somewhere in the middle.
I think the answer is pretty obvious, we are the precursor species.

Or it could be any number of things other than nobody out there. For example, advanced life could be out there but it might be rare enough that you only end up with a handful of space capable civilizations at any one time. The milky way is a big place. If we assume that ultimately there isn't a clever way around the speed of light then two civilizations on the opposite side of the galaxy will never encounter each other.

Or maybe its rare enough that you are only likely to have at a time in a galaxy.

Or maybe the prerequisite tech to thrive on an interstellar level means they simply aren't detectable by out primitive sensors. Poor backwards humans, still using the electromagnetic spectrum to measure things!

Hell, we could have a Prime Directive situation on our hands too. Although I think that one is really really unlikely.
So the skill lies in knowing how to make a good prompt.

Sounds like human work.
Whether something is generic/specific depends on the context.

As an argument type, Iterable is permissive (generic).

As a return type, Iterable is restrictive (specific).
Back in 2017 it wasn't that common yet. I think Yondr is a great solution for comedians, but can also totally see that it wouldn't have made it into terms and conditions yet. I don't think you can guarantee anything in this case unless you have the actual T&C from that particular show.
I don't understand why anyone still does business with Wells Fargo.

Yes, that is true. OpenCore [1] allows a few extra years, but at some point the 2014 mini will be too old.

That being said, if you use the Mac as a server, behind a NAT/Firewall with only some ports open, use up to date server software, and don't use it to surf the web, then the security impact of using an outdated OS is minimal.

You could of course also just install Linux on it.

AI Predictions for 2023
Endless growth is not attainable on this Earth. Japan hit the inflection point some decades ago. They are doing alright. They still innovate. In some respects it's stagnant, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. It does mean that offspring will not perpetually think "they will (potentially) earn more than their parents" and that's okay.

We need to accelerate this in places that are still growing, slow them down but also modernize them.

Asceticism may not be necessary, but it is a target. Like many targets it's one one may miss, but in going for it it reduces footprint.
Long time user. It’s so fast and fantastic to have full control.
This list significantly affects journalists, writers, illustrators and digital artists and especially StackOverflow which programmers both senior and junior will be impacted and less roles going around for both of them.

As for paramedics, doctors, lorry drivers and Google, etc the impact of AI is hardly a threat to them and this website has greatly exaggerated their own predictions.
> I've long subscribed to the philosophy that you should buy the cheapest tool you can find and use safely [...] Too much money is thrown away in the name of "buy once, cry once" only to discover that you don't need the capabilities offered by the top of the line options.

How about something in between these two extremes? You don't need to go "top of the line", but you can save yourself a lot of frustration if you spend a little more than the absolute minimum...
I think he means more towards 'buy the cheapest, but quality tool'

You don't want to use a dollar store screwdriver but at the same time you probably don't need a Wera.

I have a friend who has a fault of buying the best of everything, for example he bought a $300 Milwaukee cordless to hang some pictures on the wall, because "One day I might want to build a swingset". It's been 8 years and he never built that swingset.
I haven't yet run across an adjustable wrench that was worth a shit. Even old (notionally decent?) Crescent ones.

The jaws invariably splay when you apply force, even if you're using them correctly. I've come to the conclusion that it's just intrinsic to having a moving jaw that moves easily enough to be useful.

At this point, if I expect to need the wrench ever again (or need to reuse the fastener), I'll just buy a proper wrench for it. The couple of Crescent wrenches I keep are for emergencies and plumbing (because I don't have combo wrenches that big and do it infrequently), nothing more.

Vise-grips? Another tool that I find is more apt to round something than grip it properly. If I'm reaching for them, I figure I'm already so dicked that I'm unlikely to make it worse. Once in a while they get me out of an otherwise unavoidable trip to the hardware store.
They're all the same to me. Entertainment.
Interesting point, this is why I love these discussions so first of all thank you.

When we strip away all of these aspects from 'the magic' it gets really interesting to think about what's left. And this is always where it becomes hard to articulate for me. Would you describe yourself as a robot performing a set of finite predetermined tasks? A system merely responding to pattern recognition? Are we just a more complex version of ants following some chemical impulses?

I cannot shake the feeling that it's more of a 1+1=3 kind of thing, where the sum is more than the addition of parts. In Complex Systems Theory it would be emergent behavior, I suppose.
Nice, looks familiar! Any plans for supporting aggregation pushdowns (we have had some experience with that in Postgres/Multicorn[1][2])?

Though, I imagine there's a region in the data size/network throughput/latency space where simply fetching the data and then doing analytics in ClickHouse is more performant than actually going for the pushdown.[3]

This has been a long time ago, it's possible, I know the show description at the time of purchase didn't mention it, the ticket didn't mention it and the venue policy didn't mention anything about this. Ticketmaster after the fact didn't state there were any additional T&Cs attached to the ticket.
