I think it's always bad to give advice that large subsets of people the advice is applying to can't use. It's just calling the advice bad advice.

You're reading too much into this. I just want advice to be useful. I consider advice useful when it's able to be used by the people it applies to. Generic advice fails to be able to be used by a large subset of people it applies to, and therefore generic advice isn't useful, and therefore I think it's bad advice.

Think of it like this:

Person A: "If you're new to programming, just start with javascript."

Person B: "But what if they want to start in game development, finance programming, or data science instead? Javascript isn't that helpful to them. I think you should be more specific. 'New To Programming' is too broad of a field."

Person A: "Oh, so you don't think people should feel responsible for your own behavior?"

Person A is clearly projecting nonsense at person B, who is just pointing out the advice is too broad. That's it.
> Well that's not true. Most cattle is grass fed for the majority of it's life at which point they will have them eat at feed lots to fatten up.

I think the problem bot vs real-person needs to be solved by the governments. Every government doing its own thing to tackle this wouldn't work, it would be great if they created an open-source project/standard that they implement. Alternative would be using bank accounts which is actually what Scandinavian countries do (e.g. in Sweden it is Bank ID) to verify that you are a real person.

All these methods of trying to recognize government ID pictures and etc. just seem very inefficient and not accurate enough for wide-spread use.

Unfortunately, not many governments are well-run to manage such solutions.
The Texas and Florida laws sound to me like compelled speech which the Court doesn't typically approve of.

This does nothing to prevent micro plastics.

Micro plastics are plastics that have escaped into the environment, which by definitions means we are no longer collecting them for disposal or recycling.

All this does is keep some recycling programs from shutting down, and most of those are collecting bulk #1 and #2 which as far as I’m aware are not the major source of micro plastic pollution.

Patagonia has a fucked up plan of using recycled polyester in everything lately and I don’t see how nobody is
noticing that a major source of urban micro plastics is going to be coming from dryer lint. Which means synthetics and dryers are a bad combo.

I line dry all my exercise clothes, but most people don’t.
Nice post!

To me, "math/big" feels like a big hammer for working on an int64; a nice alternative is "encoding/binary":

func atomSlug(publishedAt time.Time) string {
b := make([]byte, 0, 8)
b = binary.BigEndian.AppendUint64(b, uint64(publishedAt.Unix()))
b = bytes.TrimLeft(b, "\x00")
return lexicographicBase32Encoding.EncodeToString(b)
}
As fro your further edit: assuming √2 is rational, then the set of ~~rational~~ integers {q: q√2 ∈ ℤ} does not admit a minimum, indeed it contains arbitrarily small numbers, so we can't pick k the smallest member of that set.

There are many good reasons of choosing the programming language over a markup language. C# has countless of features, both functional and syntactic: conditions, loops, methods, formatting, iteration, recursion, etc. Additionally, each of those features is well supported by all major IDEs. Writing your presentation layer in a proper programming language does not only rely on your existing skills but also gives you access to tools such us code completion and IntelliSense. Moreover, using FluentAPI helps with keeping the code concise and easy to change.

At the end of the day, it all depends on how you use the technology, doesn't it?
As mentioned in the other comments, the multi account container extension is more generic and is also one of the reasons I prefer to use Firefox. Chrome is unlikely to reproduce the feature anytime soon.
It's the folks that hitch themselves to a political party narrative that are the most dangerous, because they can't decouple when the party fails them repeatedly. They start to make excuses, moving the goal posts, and white washing obvious corruption. They become so enamored in it, that they find people on the internet to harass, just so they can feel big and important for putting them in there place.

You are really missing something hugely important here by expecting a rational, mechanistic model and understanding of our brain, and dismissing anything else. Monastics don't care how the brain works mechanistically, and that isn't what they have been working on for thousands of years. They have been focused on finding ways to achieve very specific outcomes, and have largely succeeded at that.

For example, in Taoism there is a specific objection to seeking mechanistic understanding for what the methods such as qi gong are actually doing physically in the body. They know that such mechanisms exist, but they explicitly don't care, as it's a temping distraction from achieving mastery at the actual technique. One can become a neuroscientist instead of a qi gong master, but you will have a different set of outcomes, and will not also be a qi gong master. Perhaps someday neuroscience will advance to that level to achieve anything qi gong can do, but it is far from that right now[1].

Modern western medicine for example, despite claiming to be scientific and rational, has also mostly taken this approach. We don't understand enough about the body to correctly explain how most medical treatments work. We only know empirically that they work, and so we use them, with great success despite mostly discovering them with trial and error. In some cases we have supposed explanations, but the explanations are incomplete, and keep changing as our understanding grows, yet the methods continue to work regardless.

Would you refuse to go under general anesthesia during a life saving surgery because we still lack an understanding of how or why it works? I sure would not. Anesthesiologists completely lack a special privileged understanding of how their methods work, and instead focus only on following protocols that have been found to be safe and effective despite a complete lack of biological understanding. The way monastics 'hack the brain' with careful protocols discovered by trial and error is virtually identical to this.

Edit: I am writing all of this because I strongly relate to your perspective, and shared it when I was younger. I am a researcher in a bio-medical field, and developing more respect and understanding of these types of things was a long process I went through, when I used to reject them as irrational BS. I now use some of these methods in my daily life, and have a better quality of life as a result, yet I don't understand them. I am interested in finding funding for research to explore the underlying biological mechanisms.

Yeah, best to avoid having to type in a big nonsense string in the first place. But if you do need to do it, base32 is at least better than the obvious alternatives (decimal, hex, base64)
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightning_rocket

"A lightning rocket is a rocket that unravels a conductor, such as a fine copper wire, as it ascends, to conduct lightning charges to the ground. Lightning strikes derived from this process are called "triggered lightning.""

I like the idea of a longer lasting solution, though the tethers would need to be high-temp superconducting cables. The wires in triggered lightning vaporize and the energy is mostly lost to heat.

Animals are mostly sentient. The degree of "consciousness" is debated. Sardines don't even have a cerebral cortex, which to me puts them on the level of insects - vegans might object, but they won't object to squashing flies and using insecticides.

As for the environment, depends on the animal - this is usually about methane (from cows) and land encroachment (also, because of soybean crops or whatever).
In case anybody else ever needs to do this, install the official Google Drive for Desktop client on a Mac or PC, and set it to stream (not mirror). And then just use the command-line to delete everything in one fell swoop.

GUI file managers are generally not designed for many thousands of files, especially web/mobile ones.

That's very strange that Classroom was creating files in root, however. It's supposed to create them in a single "Classroom" folder in root. You can move the folder if you like (e.g. as a subfolder) but there shouldn't even be any way to point Classroom to use the root-level folder for classes/assignments. (Plus the internal folder structure is hierarchical by class/assignment, so there also shouldn't be thousands of files/folders in a folder in any part of it.)
This is a project of mine that I take attempts at here and there.

I don't think you can get good at doing calculations without practicing the calculations, but reading books that discuss the higher-level aspects of math and the philosophical underpinnings can help you look at it in a different way that may inspire more interest as well as an easier time grasping the difficult parts.
Agreed! Powell is my favorite modern composer mostly for his work on the trilogy. I've listened to the soundtrack for years and remembered an Instagram post he made about it being pressed to vinyl a while back, so it was the first thing that came to mind when I realized I have a fully-functional record playing set up now!

Romantic Flight and Test Flight are indeed spectacular, though I think my personal favorite is probably Forbidden Friendship!

Also, yes! The Jonsi track is great. I'm also a fan of the songs he made for the second and third movies. Really cool that they got him to collaborate on the whole trilogy.

> 167 missing sites at last check.

That seems like a lot but curious to know what percentage of their total sites this is.

I think I found the full list here: https://www.aviationweather.gov/docs/metar/stations.txt

This list is worldwide and I see no information about this outage being region specific so I'll assume it's worldwide.

Seems like they have about 9,517 sites so this is about 1.75% of their sites worldwide

My flow is window-centric - there's a "new container tab" option that will give you a tab in the selected container. Any new tab opened while looking at that tab will be in the same container.

As others have said, you can right click -> open in container!

This doesn't make any sense at all. Every one has different reasons for wanting most products. It's this nuance that is at the foundation of the entire field of marketing, and finding appeal for any product in the marketplace.

There are products that are extremely niche that serve very specific purposes that are considered very successful, and there are products that serve very broad appeal across a wide subsection of the population that by all metrics would be considered "failed" (e.g. loss leaders).

The mere fact that you can walk into most restaurants or grocery stores and see an explosion of plant-based alternatives, and that the meat industry itself has been one of the main investors in this space should provide all of the evidence that is contrary to the point you're making.

This article is, quite frankly, an author in search of a specific narrative.

The radical symbol always refers to a single-valued function by convention.

x^(1/n) is used for multi-valued functions in complex analysis, not the 'n-radical' symbol, which would usually refer to the principal root.
It likely affects different people differently. Moderate alcohol consumption doesn't seem to have a long term cognitive affect for me. No difference in cognitive abilities if I had 2-3 drinks the night before or a few months before. I'd imagine heavy drinking has a different impact, but have much experience on that. Overall, it would likely be healthier to not drink.

Optionally additionally while editing small X icon might show up and clicking it might cancel the change instead of saving it.

> You can't account for and sanitize all levels of stupidity on user inputs.

That is false and a defeatist attitude.

Sanitization is not the right solution anyway. If you are working with any form of a database and don't know from the top of your head how to avoid query injection attacks then you should look up in the manual of your database. The solution is most often called "parameterized query" or something similar.
> Most cattle is grass fed for the majority of it's life

Nope. The majority of cattle industry has transitioned to factory farming and the cattle in factories are fed with edible produce. Not grass. The current meat demand is not something that mere grazing can support.

Even if it was possible to do with mere grazing, that's still not an argument: Grazing is done on land that could be used for many other purposes ranging from residential urbanization to vertical farming. Its not done in the Sahara desert or Siberian taiga where the land is actually not usable for anything else.

Regarding byproducts: Such biological products are still valuable for many other purposes, leaving aside that many of them can be easily made edible through different processes.

It again boils down to this:

We are turning more food into less food. That's not a rational thing to do.

Rare-Earth Magnet Ingestion–Related Injuries in Pediatric Population: A Review
I second this strongly, you can’t get better at math just by reading books. You need to hone your problem solving skills, you need to fight with the problems, have the mindset of a warrior, a conqueror, only then you’ll get the juice out of it and have a clear understanding of the subject. I’ll suggest starting with Concrete Mathematics by Donald Knuth, it’s a beautiful book that catches the essence of mathematics.

Art of problem solving(https://www.amazon.in/Art-Problem-Solving-Basics/dp/09773045...) is also a great start, especially if you don’t have much experience.
Maybe I was totally dumb, idk. I don't really count recruiter phone screens as phone screen, usually I have 2 (one easy one from recruiter and one more critical one from the hiring manager/company)
This is the side of where younger me might jave started from, but it's not these billionaires fault, there's no privilege they've used other than being early (and acquiring many many would be competitors), and there's nothing holding Americans back from going elsewhere, to more favorable social network systems.

I vaccilate on how bad I think the social networks are. Personally I think the calls for them being political moderators is highly overrated. But most importantly, it is the very laws in question that would allow other networks the right & capability to host their own platforms as they see fit.

Social media is in no way the equivalent to the postal service or the telephone. You'd have to be insane to start a new postal competing national & internationally capable postal service or telephone company, the costs are astronomical. Social networks are literally started by random folks with a hobby, such as Mastadon.

There is nothing keeping us to the social networks we have. These views that thengovernment has a right to step in & tell them what kind of speech to allow & disallow is an insane & delusional twist, goose-stepping rapidly towards insanity, and the justifications for this begging, to be guaranteed right of reach by the government anywhere & everywhere, is madcap. Absolutely not. This is a sad game of political griping gone off the rails.

Media is not neutral, it has biases, and site holders have a right to make sites that express their bias. That it happens to be used by the public is immaterial, so long as the public has a choice to use it or not. I see nothing limiting what networks we travel, for the internet is a series of tubes.
