> So you already know there was no such agreement or promise, and still try claim it as such.

Clearly I laid out reasons why there is a promise yet you claim I am fraudulently claiming otherwise?

> they get immediately targeted by disinformation and indefensible Russian imperialist ideology.

I don't give a shit about russian ideology, if you don't care to disagree and correct what I said respectfully it would be better if you said nothing at all.

Russians use this reason to justify their actions, I did not justify anything Russia did. You can only join NATO by invitation, when expanding an alliance in a time of peace, it makes sense for the only real enemy of the alliance to fear how they'll fare in the event of a future military conflict no? And NATO knew that and played chicken with a psychotic dictator.

You peope that think the way you do are caught up in morality and who is right and wrong. I am talking about what actions led to conflict and how peace can be acheived. I don't care who you blame, it would not be nice if Ukraine is just the start
A tale of two companies (true story)...

I worked for a company a full year that always prioritized new features over bug fixes, or even QA. This was a sales-driven company. For various reasons, it was a toxic environment and I left.

The next company I worked for prioritized good engineering over shipping a product. This was an engineering-oriented company. It's funding was running low ('cause - well, no product!) and I got caught up in a layoff.

Company #1 - for 5 months of that year, I was the only QA person (with 13 devs). Literally no time to automate regression - there was always the "next feature we need to close a sale to customer 'X'". I told my boss that inevitably I (or my occasional comrades) would miss something and the company would be liable. Sure enough, within 18 months of my exit, they were hit with 3 different lawsuits.

Company #2 - absolutely delightful environment, except for the non-technical CEO. Understandably, he wanted to return value to the investors, but he kept making short-term decisions about direction that, while intending to make money, ended up accelerating the cash burn. I was promoted to be a technical lead of about 8 people on a side-project that was supposed to leverage technology from a company whose name is a homophone of 1 × 10¹⁰⁰. No surprise, mega-company changed the rules and our potential product was DOA. The entire team (including me) was let go.

TL;DR - quality is engineered in, and everyone owns quality. If a genuine defect exists, determine its severity and likelihood of emergence with customers to determine priority. Don't ship/push to production any code that will cause customers to lose data or their ability to run their businesses. If you have to make a choice, choose bug fixes over new features.
That may be a neat concept for a science fiction novel, but it seems more likely that someone at the Wuhan BSL4 was working with coronaviruses (as they do) and somehow contracted the virus themselves. They may have been working with lab animals, such as bats. The virus didn’t have to come with a sinister intention.

Looking at this another way, until today, the most common hypothesis was that the virus crossed into humans because of contact with wild animals. A lab leak probably also involved contact with wild animals. It’s just now the Energy Dept. has gotten their hands on intelligence supporting this notion in particular.
Literacy goes a lot further than just access to a mountain of books, having the opportunity to meet with your peers and others to discuss those books makes it a much richer experience than reading alone. It can also serve as a reality check on some of the stuff that you find in books, and can help by pointing to other interesting reading material. Books are great, books plus other people is gold.
>The price of canned tomatoes has doubled, it said, from £15 a case to £30.

Not knowing how many kg are "a case" it is difficult to say anything, but on Sainsbury's site canned tomatoes are in the £1.38 to £2.50 per kg range.

Considering that on a pizza there could be at the most 100 g tomato sauce, at the most it is £0.25 value.

And this is a retail price.

So - maybe - the issue is about availability in quantities, but not the costs increase of the canned tomatoes.
It's why I've looked to LineageOS and which brands tend to get the longest support. There are apparently devotees to the Google Pixel line, with the Pixel 2 (2017) being one of the longest currently supported, receiving the latest Android 13. Granted, it probably wouldn't have hardware patches for say Qualcomm's 2020 vulnerability but I'm glad there are users who put in the effort to patch older devices.

Support seems to vary even between models though, so there's no guarantee support for continue as long for any others.
I'm suspicious of this explanation because the views that gather information from multiple commands can generally be configured down to a bare minimum that uses very few (sometimes just one) command. I assume they would have tested this before considering it inexplicably slower.
There's no significant market for a 4.5" screen phone in 2023. It's not like manufacturers haven't tried.

I would also argue that small screens are awful for consuming content nowadays. People with bad eyesight struggle with bigger fonts in a small screen, and publishers tend to try to fit more and more content in each screen. It's systemic.
It's strange because one of the common problems of this type of AI is that it can't count, so hands may have an unusual number of fingers.

I think my original drawing has only three legs. Two "long" legs in the extremes and a "short" one in the middle.
You're missing my point. Your example doesn't contradict it.

My point is that the most powerful countries don't need to clean their dirty money to spend their money abroad, because they are the center of the world economy, and everything is available to them to buy. Russia is economically on the periphery and thus does need to clean it.

There’s no public API for it yet, so no. But once we have a public API, probably.

Congratulations on moving away from WordPress - but it sounds like the decision was made a little oddly. Taking a working WordPress install and a) moving it to a hosting provider (like WordPress.com), b) installing a modern theme - should be enough to solve most of the problems without the incidental complexity of changing to a new system?

Any modern wp set-up should have great caching and performance?

Of course, there are issues with wp that may make it worthwhile to move away - but costly hosting, outdated design or low performance shouldn't be among them?
CC65 is just not a very good compiler by modern standards. There's an experimental 6502 backend for LLVM that outputs fairly good code. (A Z80 backend also exists, AIUI.)
What will make this information dangerous is if people misconstrue “lab leak” to mean “human designed”. The report specifically says it was not from a bioweapons program. I’m sure they took pains to verify that because the implications of THAT conclusion would be explosive.
Ah now I get your point :).

> a file with malicious prompt on your hard drive

How will you know if a file is free from malicious prompt or not? The applications seems to be able to download any file and analyze it. So from my perspective, I think it is easier this way than to execute other attack? Because these files may seem benign but can still run instructions from the prompts. Just think that the next pdf you are downloading from the web has has no malware but only malicious prompt. What will you do?

Magit's call to donate addresses itself to a completely different demographic than the companies that should donate to "super core internet infra" projects.

Individual developers might not care about their company that uses libcurl in 95% of their applications, but might get enough benefit from magit to make it worth their while to donate to it.
It's the opportunity cost (how much income are you giving up by having kids), not the absolute income. Also, people at lower incomes have subsidies, so cost of children can be different. For example - in VT, if your income < 150% FPL (federal poverty level), you pay $0 towards child care (versus some people paying > $2000/month in places like NY)

https://outside.vermont.gov/dept/DCF/Shared%20Documents/Bene...

If you calculate opportunity cost, the cost of a child increases dramatically as you go up the income ladder. From tens of thousands of dollars to hundreds (in income missed) or even millions (if you take time off + pay for your kid's schooling in private academies)
The state line thing makes a degree of sense in the context of the (extremely broken) network system. Your insurer has a network of providers with whom they have negotiated rates. If you live far away from your plan’s intended market, you won’t be near the network, and everyone loses except the medical providers who get to overcharge you and your insurer as a result.

It should be quite evident that everything about this system is broken, but this is part of how broken systems get entrenched.

I wonder who paid who in this deal. Is free Mathematica used to prop up an OS no one uses, on boards no one can buy(for their normal prices). Or is it raspberry pi foundation taking part in Wolfram advertising? Mathematica is a very nice product, but it's expensive. They tend to "get" people by offering cheap licenses through universities. Then there is free and open source Octave. It is just as good for everything I used it for, but sometimes code for Mathematica requires tweaking before it could run on Octave.

There is always a duplication of "schema", both your database and application language need a definition of this.

Why can’t an application just run SQL queries directly against the database? I agree that there are many reasonable ways to manage a database, but not all of them involve reproducing the entire schema directly in client code the way an ORM does.

> This is completely false. Becoming a member of NATO has always been the initiative of Eastern European countries, not "the west".

You cannot even begin NATO application without an invitation. Regardless of the initiative of non-members any member could have blocked the expansion of the alliance simply because it was a time of peace and there are no agressions by Russia.

As for the rest of what you said, it only applies to conventional warfare.
I am currently typing this on a 4 years old shitty Xiaomi budget mobile phone. I don't recall if I've ever updated mobile software (or if there was an update available) but my phone is working as good as it should. So far I haven't seen any problem in installing any app. I don't see myself replacing this phone in next 6 month at least.

I guess tech people are way too much worried about security/software updates.
This reminds me of the recent core-js blog post [1], however Magit is extremely actionable with clear steps to donate or even receive a bill for your employer.

What we need is a system where we can all pull from a common pool of FOSS donations. For example if my projects were registered and I made commits during a donation cycle, I could receive a fair portion of donation revenue. Something similar to residuals [2]

I'm not sure that's actually true. Taxes are set in law. If you write to the IRS saying my tax bill is $1000 but I'm sending you a check for $10,000 because I want to pay more I imagine they'd have to return it.

I started learning Godot 3 a while back, however Godot 4 seems very promising, especially because of the built in LOD support, which feels ahead of even what Unity provides (since these would be automatically generated, a bit like in Unreal): https://docs.godotengine.org/en/latest/tutorials/3d/mesh_lod...

Now, Godot 3 still had a plugin for similar functionality, except for the automatic generation (so close to being on par with Unity in that regard), I even ported it over to C# in private: https://blog.kronis.dev/articles/porting-the-godot-lod-plugi...

However, while the older version might be more stable for now, such as having mobile and web export, it's also pretty clear that migrating to the newer one once it comes out will actually be a good idea, also because of the new improved 3D rendering in general.
> best browser game engine

> web export is completely broken

> Godot with C# straight up has no web export

Hmm, something is amiss here... They're already on RC5 and web export not working doesn't sound like the web platform is a focus of theirs. AFAIK, the web export being broken is not mentioned in "Known Issues" about V4 either.
I had a small personal homepage with about 20 posts / articles on WordPress. A few years back I migrated to Gasby (to learn how it works; migration was easy) and it was nice (see migration guide I wrote [0]; see old repo [1]). After learning Hugo for a pro-bono project I was doing I decided to migrate my website again (see repo [2]); it was super easy and so much nicer (Gatsby boot up time & build time is like 20 seconds, Hugo is sub-second for both).

TL;DR: Hugo is amazing for static websites and blogs. I host mine on Vercel and it auto-builds to my production TLD in under 5 seconds.[3]

I use questions from readers to improve the content itself.

Emails let me give more information to fewer people. Private conversations allow me to give clearer information without risk. Some could construe my answers as legal advice, and it could get me in trouble as it did for a friend in the industry.

Above all, it reduces the number of comments, which allows me to focus on my work. There is not enough time in the day to moderate and respond to comments from so many readers.
Sure there were, but the organized study circles in Sweden are tightly knit to workers movement, usually there is an house in a village somewhere ment for this purpose. If there are at least 1000 people living there you are guaranteed find one (usually pretty big with that population). The same was (is?) available in the US, I know there where "workers education centers" in NYC where you could learn arts etc before the fifties.

This all needs people who are engaged in the movement and money, not a lot, but you do need a steady supply of money.

Widen your len. They literally have produced the most racist survey that showed half the people responded in a racist way and you want to call out the person reacting to it? You want to call me out? Because he didn't qualify it by saying only the black people who responded when he prefixes the entire thing by telling you about the survey so you know who he referring to.

What is the point you are trying to make? That you are defending racist people by calling others racist for them.. and you are an ally to racism?

It’s useful in the argument that (1) states, as they’ve grown in size have also been reigned-in due to the power that comes with their size, and (2) that companies, as they grow in size, must be reigned-in due to the power that comes with their size (anti-trust, anti-monopoly).

Metaphors are useful but they can also just confuse the issue through unnecessary abstraction. The fundamental question is already there at the surface: it’s not about market capitalization or about gdp, but about the power that size in either metric represents. That’s the characteristic binding these two dissimilar ideas together.
there it is, the real reason for your moronic refusal to acknowledge the complexity of obesity. if it's just a matter of willpower alone, you get to get a nice little sense of superiority and an ego boost. everyone else is just stupid and lazy.
> Therefore, unless this distance is zero, time will necessarily pass between those two events from the perspective of the observer

No, this is where I disagree. From the perspective of the observer, they are seeing what they are seeing exactly when they see it. They don't perceive any time having passed at all, because we can't perceive an event's age.

What's not up for debate is how long it would take to do round-trip communication between the two places.

What's also not up for debate is that is impossible to show that these far away events are not happening at the time we see them.

How you interpret this is absolutely up for debate, because it's not some intrinsic physical fact.
This would be a fair argument if Scott was literally sitting in the newsroom or on the newsroom Slack going on racist tirades, making the employees uncomfortable.

But he's syndicated. The Plain Dealer doesn't "work with" him any more than I "work with" Mitchell Hashimoto, for example. Nearly all of these newspapers work through a syndication middleman that operates professionally and neither represents, nor transmits, their cartoonists personal opinions on other platforms.

Firing someone for being an asshole in the office is perfectly legitimate. Firing someone for being an asshole somewhere else that your employees have no reasonable chance of even knowing about other than through the tweets of people they don't even know is absolutely ridiculous.

This whole thing reminds me of the Yarvin / Strange Loop fiasco.

We've, as a society, decided long ago that private and professional lives are generally distinct. We accept that the alcoholic who gets shitfaced every night after work is a perfectly acceptable coworker as long as he doesn't come to work drunk. We accept that whatever crazy shit you might get up to in your bedroom has no bearing on how you comport yourself at work. But recently we've somehow made a bizarre exception for personal opinions.
Sorry but that makes no sense.
