It's not so much weaseling, so much as whether the normal audience for this speech would have interpreted it as disclosing facts. You can't just say "in my opinion, this professor stabbed a student to death" to shield yourself from liability. But you can say "in my opinion, this professor stabbed a student to death, because I can see that they have the beady eyes of a criminal"; the basis for your claim is clearly not some undisclosed fact you've learned about the murder, but rather your weird ideas about facial features.
The retail complex in question draws a lot of traffic from outside the area and the chain stores do in fact tend to run their locations there as model examples because they know it can drive traffic at people's home locations. B&N seems to be the exception.
This looks cool. I like SQL but I have to admit it’s often cumbersome.

Something that came to mind after looking at some example queries is the mix of parentheses and square brackets. It’s not immediately obvious to me when I’d use which.

Also (and this might just be a personal pet peeve), why do new languages insist on using flashy new keywords when the status quo would do just fine. What’s the point of filter/derive instead of just calling them where/select.

I sometimes notice languages really go out of their way to ‘be different’, I think it’s xslt (or something xml-related) that uses when/otherwise instead of just if/else. Everyone knows if/else, stop trying so hard :P
You can also buy dishes that intentionally don’t stack airtight if you get my meaning - so that two plates on top of each other still dry perfectly fine - and then drill some holes in the cabinets.
This is exactly what I meant. For real world situations and when you don’t have SWE “to do a proper” job you can get very far fast with just access. Especially if you hook it up to a running db instead of using the internal one.

Which gains did you or the users get when rewriting to C#? What were the downsides?
That's really not that crazy, and I'm surprised this whole system hasn't been developed. We're kinda stuck in the 'big flappy door' form factor right now. I wish something like the drawer style were more common and with integrated air-drying.

At the risk of stating the obvious, my intent is to assist other readers:

> ... 'I never told anybody that Al's wife was a retired strip-teaser.'

In text (thus without inflection), one can interpret this several ways.

> I never told anybody ...

It wasn't Harry who spilled the beans.

> I never told anybody ...

But Harry had photographs to show them.

> I never told anybody ...

Someone has blamed Harry (for making it up? for sharing truth prematurely?) and he's trying to defend himself.

Presumably, however, Al's wife never was a stripper. But this second-hand account of a statement that A) may not have existed or B) was meant to indicate it was never true, brings to the mind of the viewer/listener a different version of this woman's past and could very well indict her with a questionable history.
That's a really nifty visualisation of the 140 named web colors.
The consumption of viruses returns energy to food chains
People survive Antarctic winters so I can't see that there is a particularly big challenge. There is no atmosphere on the moon so heat loss to the sky is purely radiative whereas in Antarctica you have winds blowing that cool the habitats by conduction.

Solar panels should be able to provide the necessary energy which can be stored in piles of rock and insulation should be able to to prevent the loss.

The 'article' says that the lunar night is rife with problems but doesn't mention what they are. There is no weather after all.
Let things pile up until I don't have any countertop space to cook, then clean everything in a rush and convince myself that this time™ I'm going to keep it clean.
begs the question, cui bono? obviously, the orthodoxy. the author is clear in his example of who cares about the so-called scientific facts: governments and policymaking agencies. from where i sit, it appears we're looking for another weapon in the arsenal to overruling the individual's free will to, importantly, harm themselves against their (and usually our) better judgement. coming off the back of the recent vaccine debacle, it has a certain curiosity to it. if "vaccines help" were a scientific fact, then we'd probably be in the clear to force straighten people's arms and hit several shots into their veins, for their own good.
It's almost 2023 and people still believe this nonsense. Humanity is doomed.
> compostable components

I've certainly seen regexes that remind me of compost heaps.

(I agree that regex syntax is fine. I just liked the typo.)
Does this mean they’re like a commercial washer and you kid it up with a gallon of detergent once a year or something? Because that would be nice.
Senna's death was sudden and a tragedy. Pelé's death is also sad, but it was foreseeable given his health condition.
Two dishwashers. One for clean and one for dirty.
Cancel culture == swatting. Same thing, abusing the system to get what they see as justice. Heavy cancellation usually involves stretching the truth or outright lies; an employer is very likely to drop a (male) employee based on an anonymous sexual assault tip for example, even if it turns out to be unsubstantiated depending on how high profile the employee/business is sometimes they'd rather play it safe & fire them anyway.

As easy as it is for one of the many Indian scam centers to take your grandmothers money, it is just as easy for a wide-eyed innocent figure to tell you lies about someone and have you believe them. I don't think most people realise how many biases we all carry.
Would be nice if it was possible for the Pomsky playground to show informative modal boxes when you hover over some of the Pomsky style expressions. Kind of like RegExr which remains my favorite tool for quickly writing out a regular expression and seeing what its outcome will be. Very nice to be able to quickly see what some thing does and how it affects your query including documentation in an easily accessible location on the same page.

Not having to navigate to a different page would be a boon for the playground. Very interesting though, I use Regular Expressions for the times when you need to extract information but find and replace functions/methods just aren't enough. Mostly for my scrapers.
> Ideally you frame the "debate" to make disagreement literally unthinkable, while also making all supporters feel as if their beliefs are entirely their own, arrived at rationally and objectively.

The important prerequisite, and what I think is one of the major differentiator between your "scientific world" and "political world": promoting the idea of the debate itself, as an activity that's meaningful and useful in discovering the right solutions and objective facts about reality. The thing is, a debate is actually the exact opposite of that - it's entirely orthogonal to objective reality. But it sure does work well to build and reinforce "us vs. them" divisions and group people into conflicting sides.

In the "scientific world", you don't do debates. It's obvious they're a stupid waste of time. In this world, you collate what you know, share the connections you see and the reasoning you use, and try to tease out some underlying structure from all of it, that's mapping reality better than the one you had before.
This is essentially the whole argument Jerry Falwell made when Larry Flynt ran a spot in Hustler "accusing" him of having sex with his mother in an outhouse. The Rehnquist court unanimously booted the case. The First Amendment ain't easy. This kind of shit is often the price we pay for it.
At this point I would love a dishwasher that had racks specifically for the dishes that I have. I'm surprised IKEA hasn't jumped on that -- perfectly marrying a set of dishes with a dishwasher rack.
Flagged as a (rather obvious) dup account to get around what appears to be a shadowbanned s4n1ty who had just made the exact same comment.
Meet me. I think it. Now you've met one.

You can of course disqualify me in saying I can't possibly have persisted at learning it, if I don't like it. But I am inevitably "the guy who knows regular expressions" in the places I've worked. I do use them, for stuff like fixing tedious one-off data munging jobs without having to write an actual program to do it. But I

* Do it step by step, to avoid writing anything resembling a complex regex, because I've yet to meet anyone who can write a complex regexp without bugs.

* Use "undo" a lot in that process.
I handwash all dishes and can go through maybe 50+ in about 5 minutes. My approach is very efficient.

* First, get every dish wet (so that the food will rinse off easier), just a quick splash of water the surface of every dish.

* Then, soap your sponge and begin cleaning. Stack all dishes off to the side sensibly (plates on bottom, bowls on top, silverware atop that). Don't put your sponge down to rinse off anything.

* After you soap and stack eveything, begin rinsing.

* Put the entire stack (or half of it) under the faucet. The running water from the top will flow down to the bottom, making it easier and faster to wash each subsequent dish.

* Run your hands through each dish as you rinse with water to detect and remove any remaining food.

Finally you are done! This method is great because it reduces redundant action (putting down, picking up sponge) and because it "compounds" others (lets the same water rinse multiple dishes). Also, always remember to wash dishes when you have downtime while cooking - you will have no "prep dishes" to clean by the time you eat, and instead only eating dishes.
What’s wrong with operating half the day? I guess it’s space, so it’s worth a lot of effort, but I’d think if they can avoid RTGs and just use solar they would.
I rewrote in Crystal my tool to quickly create Kubernetes clusters in Hetzner
Hi all, I just released a new version of https://github.com/vitobotta/hetzner-k3s that is a complete rewrite in Crystal that is faster, better overall and allows me to offer simple standalone executables. The previous version was written in Ruby, so users had to either set up a Ruby environment, or use a Docker image instead. This is no longer necessary.

This is my first project in Crystal and I love it already! It's syntax is lovely - similar to Ruby's - and it's FAST!

I would appreciate any feedback anyone might have - if you are a Kubernetes user as well as a Hetzner customer, please give it a try and let me know what you think, if you encounter any issues etc.

During my tests I was able to create a cluster with highly available control plane (3 masters behind a load balancer) and 5 nodes in multiple regions in just *3 minutes*. This is the total time to create the resources (servers, firewall, load balancer, private network), deploy Kubernetes to all the nodes, install some stuff required to provision load balancers and persistent volumes out of the box, and install an upgrade controller to easily upgrade the Kubernetes version (I use k3s as Kubernetes distro). I don't think there is a faster way to create a production Kubernetes cluster!

Do you have Kubernetes clusters in Hetzner already? If yes, which tool did you use to create them? Would be interested to know more about alternatives people are using.

I'm not a medical expert but isn't this obvious? Severe infections are hugely stressful for the body. Influenza vaccination leads to fewer severe infections which leads to lower risk of a multitude of diseases.

I have one small pot that cooks one full meal which I eat from the pot with my one spoon. Then I lick the spoon clean and rinse the pot with cold water, using plain soap and brush when necessary.
There is the old(?) saying that America isn't a country; just three corporations in a trenchcoat. Illicit cooperation between megacorps and the organs of state do nothing to dispel the meme.
Yeah, I noted elsewhere among the replies it's possible to use constraints to prevent extra rows in the related table, but it's inelegant and I've seen plenty of cases where it's forgotten and ends up being buggy.

I'd still advise people to follow the rules of normalisation unless there are very strong to deviate.
The definition of a t-shaped person here is wrong. I always understood it as: An individual who has empathy and ability to collaborate across disciplines coupled with deep knowledge in a specific area. Based on Tom Kelly (IDEO), probably 2005

I am the author. npm/yarn are pretty much the defacto package managers for JS, so that's one less nightmare to deal with. But I never really said that the tooling is better in the JS ecosystem. The better performance is just enough to tip the scales in favor of it.
I'm all for people finding better programming languages and explaining why they're better for them… But without that context, without any context, this feels like they're scraping the barrel to make a point to somebody with no discernable reason why.

Python has plenty of issues, but it's still great for a huge pile of use-cases.

I've built a career on Python and Django. Even as my frontend work migrates into thick assemblies of javascript, I can't imagine using anything else for the backend for complex systems, but who knows what the next 20 years holds.
Thank you for this poll, I am planning to get Linux machine next month since I'm getting tired of macOS. Unfortunately, I'm an iOS developer so I don't really have that much of a choice.
It could be that the donation comes from matching the donations of some employees, or similar programs.
"Gamergate" was the finest example of the worst people you know actually having a point. Or maybe the worst people glommed onto it because it was a way to shit on the people they like shitting on.

But their targets were also just ultimately, not worth it. They were mediocre people putting out mediocre product that would have gotten consigned to the dustbin of humanity had they been left alone.

It was just a bunch of mediocre shitheads not able to accept the reality that they were mediocre shitheads.

Not to mention, after a while, after finding out more about everything in general, the real irony is that just about every industry is overrun with nepotism and disclosure problems. Like what went on with regards to kickoff Gamergate was relatively tame compared to just the past month vis a vis FTX/Alameda.
1) UPnP isn't part of the p2p protocol

2) even in the case where UPnP fails and there is no inbound connectivity, bitcoind works and syncs fine with only outbound connections

Solana won't even sync behind nat.
In the 90% case, people's "wants" are absolutely not "consistent" for any definition of consistent. Inconsistent/contradictory answers can be easily elided through question framing. Ask someone who responds to a "smaller vs bigger government" question with "smaller" something about concrete services that may or may not be provided by governments, and in most cases you can elicit support for much larger government apparatus than exists now anywhere.

All people are shaped by unique experiences and productions of those experiences can be "consistent" and can hold firm in the face of even contradictory evidence.

But in the absence of deep personal experience, people, like ChatGPT, are argument-producing machines, where the shape of the produced arguments depend more on prompt, social context like the status of other parties in the argument, and personal context like whether someone is hungry or tired, etc.

Thank goodness the for-centuries-incorrect models of people as primarily intellectual creatures are subsiding and the reality of people being storytelling creatures are coming to the fore.

Relatedly, agree completely that Reason lacks informed editing on many topics. Cheers.
There wont be much left on the other end because of volt drop in cables. But can be possible to make it into a HVDC transmission line. Will add bit of weight on the starship.
When all practical realizations of a political ideology end up as being oppressive one party states, perhaps there's something wrong with the ideology.

Then again, seeing the current state of "market-based" Russia, I'm giving more credence to the idea that it was not communism than ruined Russia, but vice versa. They seem to have that effect on many things.
Most open source software licenses explicitly say there is no support.
And only because like religious circles, conservative circles need to be the _only_ ones to have private conversations with their children; how else are they to be brainwashed into hating everyone that isn't the same colour/sexuality/traditional gender roles like them and their mammy & daddy and grandpappy & grand-mama going back generations.
When I do have something that requires soaking I’ve found that sprinkling in a little powdered dishwasher detergent, as opposed to liquid soap, makes a tremendous difference. The enzymes in the dishwasher detergent, if left for even just an hour, make it much easier to hand wash stubborn items. I keep some detergent in a shaker by the sink just for this purpose.
The solution I would propose is to include a link to the licence inside the SVG, either as a comment or as some non visible element.

Or otherwise to include such a link in the html.

Overall I see more people/projects going for a separate license page where you list all the relevant notices/licenses; going with the group sound like a good idea in this case.
I apply some things from the explore/exploit chapter when travelling. If for the first half of the trip I try as many places to eat as I can. For the second half I’m fine with revisiting the best ones.
There're too many people washing their dishes right after using them in this thread.

What to do if you're not one of them?

I created my personal ritual: all the dishes land in the sink during the day, and right before going to sleep I turn on an audio book and spend the next ~20 mins calmly doing my home stuff. Loading the dishwasher (and unloading yesterday's portion), preparing food containers for pets, etc. Everything that's quiet enough not to wake up everyone in the house.
My method is almost the same. Dishwashers are a scam.
I had a deviated septum from from ages 5 - 28 and getting it corrected was the best decision I ever made. Highly recommend. Quality of life goes way up and it’s a very quick procedure.
I attempt something similar. I always end up with extra dishes in the sink, so I finish loading them in the evening and run it before bed. I also wash rice cookers and stuff like that. It definitely shortens the lifespan, but I also agree that it's worth the time saved.
> Generate additional evidence at will" when applied to the "scientific fact that atoms exist" means that any new experiment that you design and perform will be compatible to that fact.

There's a word for this, as I think it's fair to say any evidence of atoms still takes some inference and isn't a direct observation. The word is theory [1]. That is why we refer to the idea that matter is made of atoms as 'atomic theory',

Gould: "facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts."

Use as few dishes as possible. Wash them same day. No need to "disrupt" the 1000-year old process, because it just works.
I got mine expanded via laser surgery was a life changer.
I assume this kind of small donation is usually in return for some favor. Ie. Can you help debug and fix this bug. It looks like about 2 days work, so we'll donate $2000.
I find it shocking that's an allowable outcome, that you can have funds seized for 2 years, sue them to provide proof, and they can just return it back without showing what evidence they had.

> ongoing criminal investigation and they don't want to prejudice it

Too bad in my book. If you start arresting people and seizing property, just giving some of it back isn't good enough, you're going to have to explain yourself.
How awesome would it have been if Artemis actually carried a payload to just dump off on the moon? It's just so absurd that this feat of engineering and rocket science just did a fly by/test.
I put everything into the dishwasher, press the button, and it washes.
If it did indeed get bought by Apple, I'd go back to DDG.

Apple doesn't need to buy everything and in my opinion they're not the saviour.
Speech that doesn't insight hate to any %, avoiding use of any abrasive language hyper focusing down to the identity and being uncultured is offensive.

I didn't think it be so crazy to assume the people caring the most about not sounding offensive produces the least amount of offensive material to harvest for free
“select” implies that you're selecting from some options, not creating new values. “where” is a preposition whereas “filter” is a verb, which fits the pipeline approach better.
The central bank would have very low interest rates for deposits. It's not even a farfetched idea. Central bank digital currency is exactly this concept implemented in a general way

It won't go away, but just like it happens with COBOL, Fortran, and PL/I, you won't see anyone dreaming of coding C until the end of their working days.

Or maybe they will, given how much consultants in those languages happen to be paid, as no one else wants to touch them.
Yeah, it's actually kind of nuts how much higher your baseline risk of stroke is with hypertension that even though only ~10% of their study population has hypertension that the effect (vaccination correlated with reduced risk of stroke) just shows up on a the global analysis.
Make the kids do the dishes every night.

We do them during the day.
I know that hand washing is water-inefficient, compared to modern machines, but I find it a very satisfying activity. When I was working from home I found it a great activity to use as a break from work.
