Those are discrete, sex-related developmental conditions, e.g. males with Klinefelter syndrome, females with trisomy X, etc.

People with these conditions aren't middling points on some sort of male-female 'sex spectrum', as there's no continuous variable of sex from which one could obtain a value.

This idea that sex is a spectrum really is nonsensical.
Agreed; the only thing I can see the logic for not keeping in there are 2FA codes.

This a 1000 times. People like to hate on Java but when there are problems to diagnose on production systems it is second to none.

It gets worse because for NTSC colour they changed it to 59.94Hz so that the colour subcarrier could be an odd multiple of the scan rate and just fit into the 4MHz-wide channels.

This is why all your video editing software has got those ballachey 59.94/24.97 modes.

It gets worse because for telecine you need to need to show two frames of 24fps film for every three frames of video, so you need to slow your film down to 23.976fps so it fits.

Ballache.
What I loved about VB was how the basic UI was handled seamlessly and yet you could really dig in on optimizing user flow on top of it. It wasn’t pretty, but it was functional, and you could spend your time making sure it felt good.

I can still get there with modern tools, but the defaults / conventions in VB are simply superior to anything I’ve worked with since.

The only reason we didn't have bank runs and frozen accounts is because the Fed stepped in to provide liquidity to the whole market. The banking system would've collapsed similar to the Great Depression without such action. Lots of people lost their savings in the Great Depression.
> According to BioMed Central, biology has more atheists than any other field.

According to Pew, the percentage of scientists in biology and medicine who profess no religious belief (41%) is lower than geology (47%) or physics (46%). So your claim is questionable at best.

But for the sake of argument let's suppose it's true. So what? If you took a survey of astronomers I'm pretty sure you'd find that the vast majority of them are convinced that flat-eartherism is false. But that's not because they are prejudiced, it's because the astronomical evidence is overwhelmingly against the flat-earth hypothesis, and so it's hardly surprising that there aren't very many flat-earthers among people who study astronomy.

Likewise, the biological evidence is overwhelmingly in favor of evolution. That is why virtually all biologists, including the religious ones, believe it.

BTW, notice that religious belief also declines with age. This supports the hypothesis that the more you learn the less likely you are to be religious. And that is evidence against your (implied) hypothesis that belief in evolution is the result of atheistic prejudice.

For me the biggest problem with a setup like this is complete loss of access to my secrets. The crypto functions supported by browsers may change in future. A cipher algorithm used to encrypt my secrets may get deprecated and removed by the browser in future. Then I will be left with a bunch of HTML files with data that the browsers cannot decrypt anymore.

GPG or vim -x might be much better choices for secrets that need to be decrypted many years from now.
Hmm. Didn't Turbo Pascal have array bounds checking 3 billion years ago when we all had pet dinosaurs? It could have simply been added to the compiler in C as well...
Yep. Python has potential to support some environment like Visual Basic. But there is no such project, as far as I know. All GUI frameworks are more complex, and there is no nice drag & drop GUI editor build into an easy Python IDE. At least I don't know it. Maybe if you use PyCharm, select some framework, find the right PyCharm plugins for it, you would have sth similar, but still much more difficult to use, and also there is no prebuilt and ready to be used package for such thing.

They do a decent job, but members of Catholicism aren’t entirely immune to psychological biases.

If you grow up as a catholic in the south, you’re in the minority. Sunday mass is just a small part of someone’s week, and you’ll spend most of your time around Protestants.

Yes it is.

You are reading something in that I didn’t write. I didn’t deny the existence of intersex people or those with chromosomes other than XX and XY.

> Because when people claim that "sex is a continuum" it's pointing out that while men and women cluster around having XY and XX chromosomes, the reality is more complicated.

It’s true that reality is more complicated than XY and XX. But then I never said it wasn’t.

It’s not true that people are “just pointing this out”. They are deploying this read herring as as the Motte part of a motte and Bailey argument.

It’s true that there are certain discrete exceptions to a rigid sex binary. This is the easily defensible ‘motte’.

It’s plainly not true that there is no such thing as biological sex. You might like to learn about the processes surrounding your conception and birth if you are unsure.

It’s also false that declaring that you identify as a different gender does anything to change your biological sex, regardless of your chromosomes.

These are the absurd ‘Bailey’ arguments that the red herring is disingenuously used to defend.

I use it when it makes sense. My point is that on the spectrum of IDE <--> text editor, I'd much rather take the text editor than the IDE. The performance and ease of use of a simple text editor vastly dominates whatever convenience(s) the IDE claims to provide. Vscode is my usually my daily driver, as it's fast, has effective built-in refactoring tools, and has a decent plugin ecosystem.
> That doesn't make sense to me as there are next to no changes between VSCodium and VS Code.

I totally understand. Been on the receiving end of shitty landlords myself when I was a young man with little to my name. I'm sorry for your bad experiences, the power imbalance you described is real. Apologies for appearing callous and not making that point clearer.

I only posted my experience to counter your generalization about landlords. There are good and bad actors on both sides, and landlords can get taken advantage of too.

It seems that a small minority of folks ruin it for the larger group, who then get conditioned to treat the other side in kind as a pre-emptive defense mechanism (When in Rome...). I wasn't like most renters, but got treated the same as the rest. I'm sure my landlords had horror stories, and were jaded, so I was just another young punk to them, which isn't fair at all to me. At some point you give up. I got out of being a landlord before I got too jaded.

My experience as a landlord probably had less to do with me and more to do with their previous landlords.. To them I was just another landlord, so they're thinking why would I treat them any different? So why would they treat me any different?

The power imbalance goes both ways, and seems to me to have something to do with "having nothing to lose". I had a lot to lose if I didn't pay my mortgage to the bank, but my renters had nothing to lose by not paying me. They had all the leverage. I learned to be careful when dealing with people who have little/nothing to lose. As much as I tried to make renting a mutually beneficial relationship, it just exposed me and my finances to people with no real skin in the game.

What level of confidence is there that all this API will work exactly as it works now after 30 years? I am concerned that they might at the very least deprecate and remove the ciphers used to encrypt my data in portable secret. Worse what if they remove support for the API? Then I am going to have HTML files with data I cannot decrypt anymore, right?
Fair enough, I guess in many ways I agree that at least for now it is not a real world problem. But if this would become popular it wouldn't be that hard to make a proxy that silently adds some code to the page if you fetch it over the internet.

Maybe it would be good to document this a bit more clearly that this mainly protects against weak adversaries. On the website you make some comparisons to GPG etc, which is a very different level of protection from my understanding, and may give a false sense of security.

I think I would prefer an approach where each person has their own html file, and then they can copy-paste the message into a text box and then decrypt it. Then you could also use public-key cryptography etc, and store a (encrypted) private-key in the html file itself. Like a light-weight GPG client in a single static html page. I guess the main feature that I don't see how to add is how to store and keep track of the public keys for your friends in a nice way.

Your colleagues are talking themselves up. If their skills are that unique and special then they would have a very difficult time finding a suitable job for two reasons, the primary one being that no recruiter would be able understand the value they bring, and the second one being that relatively few companies would need their skillset.
Very interesting that people can have such different definitions.

I suppose your view is that any tightly controlled software can’t be collaborative? Like Epic, that likely helps your health care professionals and labs exchange info and collaborate on your care, or air traffic control systems where lots of people collaborate to route planes and control airspace.

Those kinds of things aren’t collaborative software because they run on limited platforms and access is tightly controlled. Is that congruent with your viewpoint?
It doesnt need to get through any committees to have impact. Microsoft just has to use it (which i assume they are given they are the authors) and then its had impact.
There is a view held by some that they actually decrease safety by providing somewhere for undesirables to loiter, or a means of escape after committing crime, or simply attract more foot traffic to an area than a cul-de-sac therfore increasing the chance of opportunistic crime.

I suspect this is a situation where the benefits of the shortcuts to society may be greater than the possible downsides to the nearby homeowners, but more power lies with the local residents, or developers who want to sell homes. It would be interesting to know if there is any research on whether there is any effect on crime from this sort of development.

There is a difference, and that is that you can use something like Jetbrains and your coworker can use VSCode with issues, but if 99% of people use a browser that renders HTML/CSS differently (and I will argue better than the competition at the time) then you are forced to acquiesce to it.

> I think MIDI is very well suited to build on top of, without needing to change the spec.

I disagree. I think MIDI uses a basic abstraction that's awkward for anything that's not piano-like, and attempting to fix it by laying things on top just muddles things. MPE works around MIDI's limitations, but it's not a very clean interface. Users have to be aware of whether they're using MPE or not. If they are, channels don't work the same way as when they aren't.

(And interestingly MIDI gets things wrong in about the same way that standard music notation fails.)

I think MIDI's main mistake is that it assumes that a key, a note, a pitch, and a voice are all unique and be used to uniquely identify each other. So, for instance a keyboard can send NOTE-ON 72 127 when someone hits the C4 key at full velocity, and then when they release it the keyboard can send NOTE-OFF 72. There's this assumption that there's only one C4 being played at once, so the keyboard can just say, "stop playing the C4 note" to get it to stop. This breaks down if you send two NOTE-ONs for the same note in a row (which I think is technically allowed), but sending a NOTE-OFF when there are multiple notes playing is undefined behavior.

The way most synths actually work internally is that you have one or more voice engines that can be tuned to any arbitrary note.

I think a more sensible approach is to just have the controller allocate voices explicitly, and then tune them however it wants. Voices can be referenced by a unique ID that's independent of pitch.

For instance, the controller might send messages like, "hey, I want to allocate a new voice which I will call V1; please set aside one voice engine and tune it to 261.63 hertz". The controller might do this before the user even hits a key. Then when the user hits a key it might send a command "please apply a percussive envelope to voice V1 using such and such parameters." When the user releases the key it might send a command "please apply an aggressive damping filter to voice V1". And so on.

The controller might want to allocate more voices than the synthesizer actually has, but that's fine -- modern synths generally implement some notion of voice stealing anyways.

I've tried the following:

• steel, straight-gauge Hi-Ten from the mid 90's

• steel, double-butted, Columbus SL from the late 70's/ early 80's

• steel, double-butted, Tange 1 from the late 80's

• steel, not sure but it was a Kona Rova from 2020 I believe

• aluminum, Cannondale R300 from the mid 90's

• aluminum, Specialized SmartWeld DSW from 2016

• aluminum, Cannondale Synapse from the late 2010's

I personally love Columbus SL. I believe it was 0.1 mm thicker all around than even the Tange 1 bike in numbers (but I'm not sure if both triangles were double-butted or only the main one). But it feels springier, even with the same wheels & tires & components swapped between the two frames.

I didn't mind the Cannondale Synapse. It subjectively felt better than the Smartweld aluminum, but the difference could have been in the wider tires on the Synapse (versus the Spesh).

The Kona Rove... for some reason was a bit of a letdown. People seem to love that bike, though.

And Hi-Ten is as stiff and clunky as everyone says. Pure beater material right there.

But the Cannondale R300's mid 90's aluminum was even harsher and wrist-numbing. It'll rattle you to your core!

All of this is anecdotal & subjective, though. I've learned to compensate the added road-noise from the Specialized aluminum by hovering off my saddle and bending my elbows a bit while loosening my grip.

But man, I love that racing steel bike. It makes me wanna try Tange Prestige of the road variety, and Ti as well.

Only other thing I'm super curious about is CAAD 12 Aluminum, but on forums I've read that CAAD 12's are slightly harsher than SuperSix Evo's (all carbon).
