> Less subjective are the effects and you can see them here - if a comment mostly produces corrections and rules lawyering, it's not a great comment and fills up the thread with meta and fluff.

This is circular. I complained about this comment, therefore the comment is bad, and you can tell because I complained about it. I'd suggest it is the complaints that are noisy and should be avoided.

> To take an even broader view - if the goal of the forum is curious conversation, good toplevel comments have to look like invitations to curious conversation to others.

Anyone looking for something to nitpick and fight about will succeed. That can't be a motivation for guidelines because it's just a treadmill. My understanding is that one of the reasons the guidelines are so terse and loosely worded in the first place is to discourage rules lawyering. They aren't a book to throw at someone and say, "your comment is wrong, because you went on a tangent." (And I'm not really even convinced discussing defamation on a post about defamation should be considered a tangent.)
It's difficult to compare them: Gates has had 14 years of philanthropic retirement to redeem his image.

Bezos stepped down from Amazon in 2021, not sure if it counts as a retirement yet.

Musk is still two years away from Gates' retirement age.

And Zuckerberg is 15 years away from Gates' retirement age.

So you are saying that of the ~1kW of energy that ends up on a m2 from sun only 10-15W is light that is useful for plants? And that is after the power conversion losses?

So my solar panel that gets ~200W/m2 could feed 10x the area of plants than the sun directly?

Something does not add up here.

Edit: 10k/200 is 50 so I don’t see how you ended up with 10-15
The solution: Get off Twitter.

Twitter is and almost always has been a collection of people screaming in to an endless void. A platform specifically created by its very nature to remove any nuance due to character limitations. Things have changed on that front, but the culture hasn’t.

I think some people get caught up in things and don’t deserve it but plenty of people do. Either way I think literally everyone’s mental health would be better if they weren’t using Twitter. Though perhaps what comes next will be worse.
Like I said, part of my gripe is really with 8VSB, and not digital OTA in general. At least in the US, digital OTA signals break down far quicker into an unwatchable state than analog (analog might be snowy and staticy, but our brains are wonderful at poking through that and understanding the content).

I'm not sure what are you referring to. TeXmacs is used everyday by many people, at lest 3/4 of my students wrote their PhD thesis with it, some of them enterely, other the initial draft. All my papers are written with it, lecture notes, presentations, letters. My experience is the same of many other people. Even comparning TeXmacs with AucTeX+Emacs is misleading. Totally different user experience. TeXmacs does not have yet a fully stable collaborative functionality, but the functionality is there and it experimentally work. Maybe one day will be completed and you will not need to rely on a central server to use it, just fire up a TeXmacs instance to be the server and connect the others: https://mobile.twitter.com/gnu_texmacs/status/13910657725338... So, slowly, but we will be there too. :)
Lack of memory protection and pre-emptive multitasking allowed for faster performance of NetWare's core file and printer sharing services. Everything ran close to the metal with minimal OS overhead and few context switches. That was a major selling point back when computers were orders of magnitude slower. But by the time Windows NT launched, even though the file sharing was slower than NetWare it was still good enough for most customers.

One of the major SQL database vendors (maybe Sybase?) actually ported their product to NetWare. But no one bought it due to the problems you stated.

The NetWare development tools were also terrible. Whereas the early Windows NT development tools were actually pretty good. Unlike with NetWare, NT allowed developers to code on a workstation platform and then deploy on a server platform with an identical API which was a huge factor in getting third-party developers onboard.

Quite a few comorbities were controlled for. In statistics controlled for means "no, this isn't the reason you're seeing this number." Rather than making vague and unsubstantiated claims. Why don't you tell us what mortality might have risen that you believe confounded the results? And back it up with a study. These are the factors that were chosen a-priori: age, sex, anticoagulant use, atrial fibrillation, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, diabetes, hypertension, income quintile, and rural or urban home location.

So unless you have some magical mystery comorbitiy, it was controlled for and therefore your comment is vague confusion peddling.

There is a disturbing tendency to feel that if law enforcement did something, the target was probably up to something, and that's justification enough.

I for one find constant links about the benefits without any freedom to actually discuss the trade offs incredibly tedious.

I’m a scientific individual, but I don’t appreciate getting nagged.

Edited to add:

I find the repetition of silly debates tedious, too. Like open source licenses, android, iOS, etc. But that doesn’t mean I don’t learn things from some of those debates.

Also, I want to know all the information and know that I know it. I currently know that attitudes like yours are keeping me from learning all there is to know about various vacccines. Because any information that could be interpreted negatively is verboten.

Edited to add one more thing: I was speaking about interesting scientific articles that reveal and discuss the downsides. You implied that I was talking about arguments under those articles being interesting. You do see the difference between those things, right? Banning information because some people react badly to that information is what I’m objecting to.
Auctex, emacs and pdf-tools are good tools. I still use them. But you either compile LaTeX often, which gets very tedious once the compile time gets longer for larger documents, or you can get a confusing error message from LaTeX that takes you half an hour to deciper. That is my experience. Texmacs does the job of all of those tools better, except for Emacs, because Texmacs is not yet as big as Emacs, but it has more potential.

NDS was overkill for what was effectively a departmental file and print server.

NetWare failed to innovate as an application server platform - NT had a much richer API.

NT was also viewed as much more easy to administer. This was a double edged sword as many people at the time didn’t (or wouldn’t) acknowledge it as a serious server platform due to having a GUI. Also it enabled many people to run servers who had no business running servers (tubes screensaver anyone?)

Finally Novell was really late grokking the internet. I remember running early NetWare 4.0x and trying to configure TCP/IP and having to configure IP addresses as dotted HEX quads. At that point I mentally flipped the bozo bit on them.

If they are paying for a tarot reading, that means they believe there is a supernatural method of getting a factual answer. They do not believe you are just telling them your own personal intuition. You need to understand this if you're going to be taking people's money and not just playing a game with friends.

You're absolutely right that every baby has different needs and I'm glad to hear that you figured out what's best for yours. It was not my intention to suggest that every baby should co-sleep - I meant to address the very commonplace (IMO misplaced) fear that if they do, then they will never leave their parents' bed and develop independence. There are obviously some babies who are ok or even better off sleeping alone. My frustration is with the mainstream acceptance that this is The Proper Way - to the point where families are leaving infants screaming for nights on end in order to "train" them.

The value of T shaped people is overhyped. We know the benefits of in depth study in an area as well as entry-level study in many areas: eased collaboration, cross-disciplinary thinking, etc. My problem with T-shaped people is not the concept, but that the concept doesn't go far enough. I have at various times used the phrase 'Pitchfork People' and 'M-Shaped people' to represent what I think our goals should be. M-shaped people have an entry level understanding across a broad area of subjects, preferably cross-discipline, and a deep dive specialist-level understanding of two and possibly three areas.

Agreed. Or at least highly suspect.

Correcting for confounding factors is not an exact science. There is a large degree of "art" to it.

When the raw data says "inverse effect" then you "adjust for confounding factors" and it says the opposite, that should be viewed with suspicion.

I didn't write the job listing, but I understand it as being interested in OSS contributions, maybe already being a contributor to some projects.

> hiring someone to contribute to open source, makes that person likely represent interest of the corporation

That's true, and this is why my team is active within the project by having a member on the Technical Oversight Committee and several others in SIGs. The point is not to push our own agenda, we have made a lot of changes that are mainly relevant to our use cases and that don't necessarily make sense to upstream. Whenever we work on features that we know others would benefit from, we engage with the project's relevant committees and make the changes requested in pull request reviews.

To be clear, I don't speak for my employer and this is only my own experience. Not all teams are like this.

> I think much better idea to "contribute back" is to actually pay the existing contributors rather than having own pet one.

Contributing features and supporting existing contributors in other ways are not incompatible. We have a whole team working on this code base full time, and so do other companies. Of course all of these people collaborate. This project is not really run by volunteers but mostly receives contributions from a number of companies (originally created at Netflix, large parts came from Google, etc).

This is not our experience as TeXmacs users. 90% of the time you are always using the same features, which are well implemented in TeXmacs. Maybe you can show me some of your documents which require TeX, so that I can understand the uses cases you think about. If you look at documents on arXiv there is no reason not to use it. Of course TeXmacs will never take over but it allows us to focus on the content and not on writing TeX. Time gained for more productive tasks with no backside. I guess people praising LaTeX should give explicit examples of what they mean by "huge package ecosystem", in the sense of a measure of how many of those packages are really used by 80% of the scientific community. And btw, TeXmacs can just run TikZ fine, if you really need it. https://twitter.com/gnu_texmacs/status/1509200571537973255

This comment is a classic example of misreading the philosophy behind T-Shape people. T-Shape or 'paint drip' people is a term used for generalists who have acquired a diverse skillset during their career and how these generalists have an upper hand over a specialist in certain domains. The book Range by David Epstein also goes deep into this philosophy.

A single anecdote of a misguided manager ruining it for their team does not invalidate the idea of T-Shaped people.

Apache horribly mismanaged this and did not release a patch until it was already widely known and being exploited in the wild. They also messed up and had to release several subsequent patches to actually fix the vulnerability. This greatly contributed to "[the] mad scramble to plug the gaps".

You can watch the chaos unfold by reading through the GitHub PR. Remember, this was disclosed to Apache in November.

This is the prime example of a vacuously true but completely useless statement. It's exactly equivalent to the toddler's insight that you can always ask another why. Yes you can always ask "but how do you know?". But so what? What does that teach you about the nature of our knowledge of the world? Nothing of substance.
> There are things that are merely probable, and there are things that are beyond doubt.

The latter could be the empty set, and no argument I've seen has conclusively proven that it's inhabited. Solipsism is the ultimate refuge from the claim that there are things beyond doubt.

All you can do is make the contingency of facts explicit, like, "given the assumption of an external world to our minds, atoms exist".
