That is victim blaming.

Recognizing that certain action (e.g. dressing in a certain way or writing an essay about gender difference) would get one in a certain violent-esque trouble.
All this hype about a generative AI replacing Google is getting a bit tiring …
google home happily plays Spotify tho. it doesn't work any better or worse with YouTube music. is it really bringing additional revenue to their other services?
Knowing a concrete cultural mechanism that is causing this could possibly open the way to engineering it (or close it completely, depending on what mechanism that is). But would just knowing "it's culture" help? I don't think (personal opinion) we're particularly good at predictably engineering culture.

Look at Sweden, it's been trying really hard and dumping lots of money into gender equality, but there's still very few women in tech. The fraction of women among Iran's CS graduates is greater than Sweden's. And, ironically, plenty of those Iranian women (I'm saying this offhand) go to do PhD in Sweden, to bring up the "gender balance" of CS departments that Sweden is so concerned about.

I'm really unsure whether society is easier to engineer than biology.
> the assertion that the data of the whole afghan population is readily accessible seems somewhat exaggerated

I don't see where they say that everyone's biometrics are supposed to be on a single ebay-purchasable device. To me, it sounds like separate statements:

1. Those devices contain biometrics of various individuals and were left behind as well as being sold online without being wiped as part of decommissioning

2. The entire population was catalogued in general, and I imagine is stored on some servers somewhere (or, for more privacy, in the cloud)
That comes after destroying the competition
Just copped The Slim Shady LP for you. That one is a classic.

His later records are trash (ok he had one more decent showing on The Marshall Mathers) and Cypress Hill is laughable I won't do it. Holy fuck of course you picked those two artists lol.

For real though your shit is purchased straight up & on it's way and now that you've mentioned BTC I don't even want to be reimbursed I just want to send you the lossless rips when the physical lands – ETA 1/4/2023.

Send me something so I can give you these files, please. That Slim Shady LP is amazing and I want to come through on my offer.

> Though I won't do that process on day-to-day basis for each track I listen, that's kinda inconvenient, you know.

Right you'd have to go to the website where you buy things and do what I did. I can understand that that's a bummer for you. You know what else is a bummer? Two free album offer and you choose Eminem and Cypress Hill hahaha. God damn my HN music taste bingo board would have SMACKED.

Pellets grow on^W^W are trees.

Wood-pellet fuel is largely a by-product of existing forestry activity.

<https://www.canr.msu.edu/wood_energy/bulk_pellets>

In the sense that trees are a resource which regrows after harvesting, unlike mined fossil fuels,[1] wood pellets are renewable.

There's reasonable concern that at quantities meaningful for replacing existing fuels, fuel-wood, including wood pellets, would not be renewable, though at what quantity that concern manifests I'm not sure.

Reasonably small-scale local burning of wood on an occasional basis can be sustainable. There are significant issues with air quality especially in traditional open-hearth fireplaces. The best heating stoves are enclosed as with cast-iron stoves, masonry heaters / masonry stoves, and the like. The actual firebox is often not directly visible, air intake is directly from the outside (so that warm air isn't sucked out of the structure), and heat is radiated through thermal mass and channeling. These stoves also burn more efficiently (high temperatures and optimised airflow) greatly reducing pollution concerns with particulates.

See: <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Masonry_heater>

What had always worked for me is that I write the web app as regular classes / objects, make it observable with mobx, then add React as essentially a template library — like as if it was mustache.js or something.

The non-React code works on its own and is super easy to understand. You could even extract the business logic and make it a CLI or a reusable library.

Shit, all my apps - Java, C++, whatever - have always been structured like this: domain logic + a decoupled frontend. I pretty much only adopt libraries that match my way. Redux did not match my way

My coworkers from past jobs tell me the way I structure my projects is so clear so I think I’m on the right track
A lot of the time you don’t even notice the limits. They started counting google docs to your storage limit when previously it was uncounted. But unless you are abusing the service as a file storage, it’s still effectively unlimited.

There’s probably a 1% of users who use more than the other 99% added up and quotas cut down on that.

I am in a very different field so I am not sure if it's any helpful to you but here is what I do.
Open PDFelement on the right side of my screen and Obsidian/Craft on the left. The idea is that my notes should be sufficient enough that if I want to review the material I don't need to open the textbook anymore. This means sometimes I copy snippets from the textbook to my notes, which is always properly indicated. Other than that my notes are basically my thoughts and ideas of how I understand the subject I am reading about. I take notes as I read and if I ever feel that I wrote too much I delete the redundant sentences. Longer notes are not always better so I try to find the right balance.

The most important advice is that you don't want to rewrite the textbook. Seems obvious, I know. Focus on how you understand the subject and write about it. My notes are in a sense small essays that are highly inspired by the textbook chapters.

As for some misc study tactics. My absolute #1 during my MA was setting a hardcore daily limit on how much I studied and during that time I made sure I am 100% focused on what I was studying. I quickly realized that being fully focused for 2 hours brought me vastly superior results than let's say giving my 60% for 5 hours. More time spent working does not equal better results.
You are as speculative in your comment as the press release its just bad manner. Why not just be truthful and communicate something "We expect that the data of the whole afghan population is compromised but we can't be sure at this moment." Just don't paint your suspicions as facts if you have no way to validate them.
So this isn't an official "Twitter files" release, just a random crazy person jumping on the bandwagon?

It's hard to tell either way, to be honest.
Sure, for the millions of years that make up human history, men went out into the wild to play with their weapons, wars and animals while women had to stay and vacuum the cave just like the male finch condemns his female finch to stay with the eggs under threat of domestic violence, so he can go play with the owls and cats.
If the state doesn't apply the money optimally, i.e. it's not doing its job, then that's the problem that needs to be fixed.
In my country the vaccination was by prescription. People who wanted to be vaccinated would sit down for 3 minutes with a doctor who would tell them their probability of complications if they got Covid vs adverse events if they got the vaccine, given their sex and age bracket. (Well, not much was known for the first shot, but by the second shot side effects were well known.) Then if they consented they would be administered the vaccine. 80% of the population consented. This is how you do responsible public health communication.

As an aside, naming phenomena after priests / politicians like that can't possibly be productive. It's telling the outgroup (people who admire Cain) that they are worthy of contempt instead of addressing their object level concerns and misunderstandings.
It's ironic that people who are nominally against the existence of a world government were demanding that the WHO act as if it's part of one: the WHO doesn't have an army or a police force. Do folk think a hostile showdown between WHO and a Great Power host country will result in anything besides deportation or the arrest of WHO envoys at point of entry?
What's the second hand price after driving it for 5 years though? Compared to SUVs, I bet it loses a lot less of its value, while delivering more value to you while you own it. Any ICE vehicle you buy now, is worth a lot less the second you drive away from the dealer and a lot less still after you've worn out its engine and transmission for a few years. EVs just don't depreciate at the same rate.

If Teslas are any indication, F150s vehicles will still be super popular as second hand or third hand vehicles for a long time to come and retain a lot of their value. If you can afford one (or a loan for one), it's a nice car to own and a relatively cheap car to drive.

As for the storm, if the power is out, so are the fuel stations. Fuel pumps require electricity to run. And fuel supplies are getting limited when the roads are iced over as well. So, owning a gas guzzling SUV could get you stranded quite easily.

Electricity on the other hand is available in lots of places that you can still drive to. So charging an EV is going to be a lot less challenging than fueling your car. And I bet people are powering their house with those shiny new F150s while the power is out for days on end. Forget about doing that with an ICE vehicle.

Not bad for 34K; much of which you'll get back when you sell the vehicle.
I'm pretty sure what they meant was "if you need to go and hunt and kill your food, then the physically stronger members of the group have to go and do that, and that means someone has to stay and look after the kids and the members of the group who can produce food for the infants likely fit that bill"
The first link says (my emphasis):

Remember when that hypermasculine Russian military recruiting commercial went viral? They only give Russia 36 on the masculinity index. (US gets 62)

Here's the construct description:

>The Masculinity side of this dimension represents a preference in society for achievement, heroism, assertiveness, and material rewards for success. Society at large is more competitive. Its opposite, Femininity, stands for a preference for cooperation, modesty, caring for the weak and quality of life. Society at large is more consensus-oriented.

>In the business context Masculinity versus Femininity is sometimes also related to as “tough versus tender” cultures.

I checked a bunch of countries -- I couldn't find a country ranked as more masculine than Austria, or less masculine than Sweden.

OK? Unrelated to what I was talking about. I'm saying devs do it out of convenience. What you do with that is not their problem, really. Most people like Google auth.

> And going back to "autocomplete"

Again, totally irrelevant? I was not talking about autocomplete=off, but about the dozens of available autocomplete values, which is what leonidasv was asking about: A standard for the various autofill forms.

Funnily enough, you're nicely showcasing the problem yourself: You're a developer who didn't bother doing the research, and yet complains upthread about the lack of standards or whatever. I invite you to look at this page:

Yes, to some degree. You can dynamically link Rust today using the C ABI, but then you lose all the richness and safety of Rust types. The interoperable ABI will allow more of Rust's type system to work across the boundary.
“the times the US president did things like suggest to the public, on live national tv, that consuming bleach could cure Covid.”

This is a lie and you should not be propagating it in the current year. It’s honestly embarrassing you can’t do primary research at all and still talk with authority.
I agree. Honestly I think this should be a government provided service, not a corporate one.

Welp, I'm open to clarification.

Given both the vaccine and the virus can cause myocarditis or pericarditis, and given that the only thing they have in common is the spike protein, I'm curious as to where you think I went wrong.
I never said that they say that the data is available on a single-ebay purchasable device. You did. I said that the writing insinuates that the data is available at all but there is no certain way of knowing it.

To counter that, the UK is almost certainly much more governmentally corrupt and incompetent than Germany which lead to most of the issues dealing with the pandemic.
This is a comment only an engineer could come up with. It's not a "grey zone" ffs. You compare talking to people in order to do your job with teaching a class of pubescent kids or wiping old people's asses. Those are not even remotely comparable.

It was pretty amazing to witness the final erosion of public trust that was the covid/Trump era.

From hereon out we have two factions of humanity - those who will believe anything said by authority and those who know knowledge can only be ascertained through deduction and reason.

> google home happily plays Spotify [...] is it really bringing additional revenue to their other services?

It will once Google removes Spotify and all other third party alternatives to their own services.

I'm typically against monopolistic practices that favor massive platforms, but this actually seems fully justified given that these voice control devices are losing so much money. I think it's fair for both Amazon Alexa and Google Home to be made incompatible with third party services. I'd rather them do this than see the devices wither on the vine.

Just tell the regulators that the services and their associated hardware are losing money and that they'll be forced to shut down unless the companies can promote their own platforms exclusively.

If Google and Amazon make this move to drop third party support at the same time, they won't have to worry about losing customers to the other home automation product. (Just make sure that it isn't collusion!)
Your algorithms cannot quantify relevance, then, because it's inherently subjective.

What might be "relevant" to most people will not be relevant to me.
My journey was VS to VS Code to Neovim. I can’t see myself going back. Maybe if I went back to writing C# on Windows, but as it is, TypeScript on Linux is just fine with Neovim, and I don’t find myself missing anything.

When I leave Neovim, everything else seems slow and frustrating by comparison. If anything, that is the reason to avoid it. It ruins a bunch of subpar editors for you.

I don't think it was *invented* to sow division, but I agree with you that it can definitely be used for it.

There's different ways to categorize things - lower-class, middle-class and upper-class is a sort of intuitive way which throughout history has made some sense, somewhat, with different names. However, I get that maybe it's not the most useful currently, because there's such a ridiculous divide between upper-class (rich) and the other two, that we, belonging to the bottom 2, should band together to bring change favorable to us.

A lot of articles have this same story: "dying person can't do the basic thing they want because tech sucks". And it's a valid, moving story every time.

It's a shame that it's hard to convince people that tech shouldn't be broken by design without someone on death's door, but it does really hit home just how shallow and empty modern tech is becoming when you think of these scenarios. I'm glad that she can see the movie anyway, unfortunately most people in this situation won't know another way to see it.
Apple is ok but the Music app is still atrocious for streaming, so it’s not like they’re particularly better at it. They made zero improvements to network reliability issues since their streaming service was launched, which is totally laughable considering that network is the core of streaming.

I don't think GDPR will prevent you from entering a contract where you sell your personal info and get paid in free access to services. It just prevents companies from doing so without your consent. Google and other could just provide ad-supported plans along with paid plans.

The only goal of GDPR is to stop the theft of personal information, it doesn't dictate a business model.

It's a fair question.

I think I'd want the following:

All my property restored as it was (whether physically or through paying for replacement costs).
Full reimbursement for replacement flights, clothes, rental cars, gas, food, and other expenses incurred due to their negligence.
Some kind of additional multiplier on top of that as an apology for the stress inflicted.

On my American flight tonight I added up just the total I've paid to fix Southwest's screwup, and it's already almost $1k before my luggage and not counting the refunded cost of my trip. My baggage foolishly contained at least one article of clothing which is genuinely irreplaceable. I don't know how I'd calculate the cost of that.

So we're looking at two or three grand of compensation before I ever even consider being a customer again.

I'm probably not worth it.
