This is not the first leak from Yandex. So they might "share" data with everyone. I used their Yandex food service. My personal info was eventually leaked and fraudsters started calling me. Not a huge issue but not a great situation either.
> Minority groups cannot pass laws by themselves.

Yes, they can, especially where the combination of FPTP with gerrymandered districts, unequal allocation (by population) of seats (in all three of the Senate and, because of granularity limits, the House and, as a consequence of both of those, in the Electoral College) makes it possible for a minority with the right geographic distribution to have majority control of political institutions.
I got my hair cut by a Greek barber in Copenhagen. He had been there for 12 years and didn't know any Danish. Somebody came in speaking Danish and he said "I'm sorry but I don't speak Danish" and the rest was in English. For many English speakers it's their third or fourth language and the value of Danish is pretty limited - even for a Copenhagen resident. Obviously, that Greek barber would probably love to speak Danish but as an adult, even a decade of effort won't get him to the level any Danish person can speak English.
> I don't want to work in Oberon (or Pascal) any more than you do (but, to tie it back to this article, I also don't want to work in C++ unless I have to), but in terms of distilling lessons of what is needed from a language, and a learning tool, it is up there with Smalltalk and Lisp (other languages I don't want to work in) as one of a small handful of the language designs that will continue to influence for a long time to come.

Other languages did simplicity better without sacrificing expressiveness by allowing natural extensions of the language. Wirth languages, by being Algol-derived, are overly-complex syntactically in ways that make them non-extensible, and possess ill-considered semantics on top of that.
A very difficult game. I’ve never been able to complete more than 3 screens.
Yes, most people just assumes that learning a language is equaly easy for everyone.
I believe (at least) research in solar geoengineering is urgently needed.

No, this is not a long-term replacement for bringing down carbon emissions (not least, because carbon also acidifies our oceans), but if you look at the horrible effects climate change is already causing now, imagine how a world will with average temperature raised by 1.5° or 2.0° Celsius.

>Japan is a small country

Small by what metric? By land area, it's comparable to Germany (with 5% more land) and it's the 11th most populous country in the world.
Apologies. Presumably those thousands of clinics etc in the search results "posit that palm reading is legitimate medicine". I had to guess what your question meant exactly - as is, it's not grammatical english, and is ambiguous in at least two ways. I should've asked you to clarify instead, or just not tried to answer.
General-purpose CPUs began as universal Turing machines for running any sort of mathematic calculations automatically. This was done in binary on punch cards and/or with panel cable settings. Then came textual assemblers to make that easier. Imperative procedural programs were then grafted-on to simplify writing assembly rather than in any sort of assembly language.

Most processors have accumulated functionality beyond minimal instructions for the simplification and acceleration of operating system services, hardware interfacing, cryptography, vector & matrix integer and floating-point math, arbitrary precision math, string processing, virtualization (IO and CPU), secure computing, and virtual memory management; just to name a few. :)

A future era of green field development closer to the technological singularity will look across the software-hardware interface boundaries to optimize both silicon (or superconductors) and compilers to generate fast, small, and/or power efficient designs and code without as many limitations. Generative AI and holistic algorithms with enormous computing power will make this possible. It's almost possible now, it's just a few leaps beyond what EDA and compilers are already doing.
Even modern flat design has gone back to (subtle) 3D hints.

Make that 100 billion more. There are ways to develop this, much like trying to figure out meteor impacts by using railguns. Effective scale models of Earth ecosystems are darn hard though, as we found out in the handful of "biosphere" experiments.

Expensive hardware required, lots of capital investment, easy to miss something and mess up.
If NASA cannot do it, your rinky dink startup probably cannot even more so, though we still need to try. And NASA is also effectively underfunded plus has slightly different goals than terraforming Earth.

We could use like half of the oil dig and weapons budget plus expert manpower to actually devise some actual quick and effective policy solutions to the hot mess grandpa and dad dealt us.
Who’s going to pay to repurpose the land? There’s zero economic value for anyone involved. Plus the workforce is half what it was, they have other things to do.

I don't really believe this. Of course some people have more of a tendency to be good at languages than others but I think the guy from you story probably didn't try hard enough or maybe had a completely wrong approach. There are many countries where virtually all people speak a foreign language which shows that it is possible for almost anybody to pick up another language.

If creationists have taught me anything, it's that debates 1) are largely won by rhetorical style, not correctness of the underlying concepts, and 2) promote the impression that both viewpoints have roughly equal validity.

https://web.archive.org/web/20220201083303/https://scienceba...

> it’s such a classic tactic of science deniers to demand a “debate” and then to accuse science advocates of cowardice if they decline. ...

> Common “live public debate” formats favor science deniers because they are not bound by science or even the truth. They are free to Gish gallop to their heart’s content; that is, to “baffle them with a torrent of BS” that includes obscure studies, bad studies, studies that don’t support their points, and even irrelevant information that superficially to nonexperts appears to support their arguments. Unless a scientist or science communicator is not only very skilled at dealing with this technique but also very familiar with the deep well of studies ranging from the highly dubious to the good studies misrepresented by the science denier, it is easy to fall into the trap of trying to swat down each gallop in turn and have no time left to make an argument for science. Such “debates” also value glibness, rhetorical skill, and the debater’s charisma far more than facts, logic, reason, and science. ...

> “live public debates” are meant for one thing and one thing only: To sway public opinion to a viewpoint not supported by science, in the process elevating pseudoscience or the unproven to the same plane as the scientific consensus as a scientifically viable “alternative”.
Why yes, what could possibly go wrong by releasing the main constituent of acid rain in an haphazard attempt to cool down the Earth, a problem itself created by releasing uncontrolled quantities of other pollutants.

Sounds like the setup for a dystopia.
Exactly, all these one party districts, and states, are not great for democracies. Basically, you get institutionalized corruption, nepotism, inefficiencies, etc. Doesn't matter if it's red or blue. It's bad either way. Swapping out parties once in a while is a good way to shake things up and break that pattern.
Let me introduce you to wild idea that language is just tool and has nothing to do really with the country/culture. I may loved China (at least first few years) where I lived for years without loving their politicians and learning language (beyond few useful phrase and numbers), same goes actually for many countries I travelled.

My kid is citizen of country A, was born in country B and lives in country C speaking languages B, C and D without actually speaking language of his citizenship country, because it's just language, you are not defined by your passport or mother language. I'm from country A, his mother from C and I speak to kid in B and D. The world is not black and white.

I really don’t like the argument that you should make things free just because it makes the world better. What happened to ownership and respecting the effort it takes to create something?

English is spoken by people all around the world, but not all people around the world speak English.

Also, those expats living an English life in Berlin etc. are doing themselves a huge disservice — you learn a language if and only if you are forced to hear and speak it. By attending meetups and softly forcing your language onto the group, you are never going to break out of your bubble.

It’s a lose-lose situation for everyone involved, really. The German speaker is limited in what she or he can express, the German audience is limited in what they can understand, the English audience doesn’t progress in learning the language of their new home country.
I believe parent was saying this is NOT open source by OSI's definition either. That's the misleading bit.
> Section 230 is not incentivising them to fact-check and moderate, as it was intended.

I think you misunderstand the intent of section 230. The vision of the bill was to support an internet of relatively free an unconstrained speech. No one expected these platforms to "fact-check" anything, and the moderation was not rule on who was right or wrong, but to mainly give them leeway to keep out genuinely illegal (and to a lesser extent, obscene) content.
You'll have to put one extra Space before each "-" that is an operator. But you also won't have to reach for Shift every time you had to type "_", which is usually much more common. So I think even in this case you might end up typing code slightly faster on average!

One of the comments on the article says

"This was not done in a lab. No light was observed. The research was for a theoretical study of a model. Good work, tho. See "Thermalization by a synthetic horizon" Lotte Mertens, Ali G.

...Sun, SGI, OS/2, AmigaOS 2.0 were all "grey desktops" with 3D bevels, Next was hardly standing out there.

I would argue that is the /epitome/ of free speech.
Due to cultural taboo, it's possible for foreigners to cheaply acquire (if not for free) houses of deceased residents in Japan. They won't be necessarily in major cities and there's a cultural resistance to accepting foreigners as equals.
Actually more than median what you need is binning -- how many years for the 10th percentile income to pay off the 10th percentile house, and so on for each 10% band. For each year.

>You just can't get a mortgage for a used home and they don't let local governments control zoning.

Huh? Yes, you can get a mortgage for a used home. People do it all the time. Where did you get that crazy idea?

Yes, zoning is controlled at the national level, and in a very permissive way, so that works really well (you can legally build new housing almost anywhere).

You sound quite normal to me. I am a retired therapist.

We are all on the autistic spectrum but those that are near the ends of that spectrum have a much more difficult life.

I too experienced your exact life symptoms during my 30's. I am now 65 years old and pretty much OK wth the world.

I, however, put all of those symptoms down to just being an introvert, nothing more and nothing less. The introverts spectrum!

I could of course hit you with some personality disorder BS but that would be cruel. You could read this for a better understanding: Vann Joines, Ian Stewart - Personality Adaptations_A New Guide to Human Understanding in Psychotherapy and Counselling.

I do find it very worrying that so many people are looking for a diagnosis for being just an ordinary human being.

You say your therapists have told you that you are not autistic! why do you disagree with them. Surely they are the experts here, the same as me.

We are not perfect, yet it is expected of us.
Are your friends journalists whose job is literally to understand and translate what is happening around them?

There is a guy working for the BBC in Budapest, Hungary, who learned to speak Hungarian quite well in the past ~3 decades. That shows dedication and enthusiasm, because Hungarian is one of the most useless languages to learn (in terms of the number of people you can speak with). Compared to that, learning Japanese even on a basic level is a no brainer... if you happen to live there for a decade!
There is a theory that children have a "language acquisition device" that goes from muscular brawn to a flubby dough-boy with age in most people. IDK if that's accurate but there does seem to be something to it.

>No, it isn't for kids, my kids are trilingual without any issues and much effort, kids are like sponges absorbing new information/languages easily, if you start early.

My point isn't that it's hardcore for children to be trilingual. My point is that the way of life of a child is exhausting - learning 247. If you try it later in life, eg doing a masters/bootcamp/intensive hobbies you realise how hard work it is trying to learn.

Having met people who have replicated learning like a child in adulthood, I posit that some of it is that children don't have responsibilities and also don't have a choice in the matter. The upside is also considerably greater - learning to walk + communicate.

> Btw. you won't be fluent in Chinese without living in China

I have lived in China before so this is very apparent to me. When I was there, my brain was always processing the language in the background. Remembering new vocab, trying to recognise new characters. Thinking about how to express specific ideas. That is worth so much more than any class or course can teach - and time spend learning like that really compounds. A week in a country like china can be worth months of study for me. And that style of learning is also how I imagine children are - constantly processing consciously and unconsciously...
No. The evidence is clearly insufficient. You didn't bring up Korea, Vietnam, the second Iraq war, Afghanistan, Yemen, Syria, Laos, Cambodia, etc or that Kuwait was a United Nations and not a US campaign.

Instead you claimed some dubious members of the babbling class misjudged how long it would take, didn't take the context into consideration, misrepresented 1940s tanks as cutting edge weaponry, and then attributed military technology and prowess to a victory plagued by warcrimes like the highway of death.

Killing surrendered troops and firebombing a retreating military under the flag of the United Nations will lead to the belligerent considering it a defeat. Under those conditions, you could probably achieve that with 19th century maxim guns.

Sorry, that's nowhere near sufficient to show that the fancy weaponry on display justified the cost or was an important part of the victory.

Of course we need to cut down trees that are older than we are. The alternative to development is stagnation and poverty. It's medieval Europe where the social status of your parents decided your social status and that of your children.

Change is always hard, but the alternative is so much worse. There is no terra nullius that we can develop without anyone being bothered by it. Every house ever built does not have to be a museum to those who once lived there. We have too much of that thinking in Europe, where cultural conservation takes precedence over economic development, and as a consequence the economic wellbeing of the population suffers. It's great for tourists, but you can't live and do business in a city-sized museum.
> If you do put a "skills cloud" on it, be ready to talk about them all. If someone had a skills cloud I would immediately look for the most esoteric skills and dive deep on it in the interview (after Googling it myself) to see if you were BSing or not. If you really know that skill, you should know more than what I learned in five minutes of searching.

I was doing the same when I was an inexperienced interviewer, but then I realized this meant I was passing up on highly competent software engineers because they were not highly competent resume writers.

Seems like you're looking for great resume writers. I would reconsider if I were you.
