read the TOS. i dont know how many times it needs to be said, but at the end of the day the EULA and TOS for kindle and amazon books is a RENTAL agreement (and a pretty awful one at that.)

the question that has to be settled by the courts (if ever) is whether or not "buy" button is a bait-and-switch if Amazon reserves the right to rescind your purchase at any time without a refund.
What about working at a community garden? There's lots of physical work that needs to be done and there's a direct visible result to your work, food. Usually that food goes to people in the community and/or is sold in the community to be self supporting.

Another option is coaching/assistant coaching/officiating youth sports -each has a different level of commitment and it's a real positive thing you can do for kids. If you have patience consider looking into the Special Olympics programs.
That's pretty much the space Wordpress thrives in, isn't it?

How shit the product is for Wordpress is a matter of debate, but the documentation and ecosystem around it is robust enough to make it fairly easy to hack and use/abuse to do what you want it to.
I’m dealing with the opposite experience right now. I work at a big tech company and lately we’ve been working closely with a data science team. I’m desperate for some guidance on what sort of data pipeline and practices we can set up for them and have a hard time getting back anything but “can you export some rows as a csv”. Which is actually easier said than done considering data compliance policies and what not. Maybe there’s a good reason but it gets a bit frustrating and I can’t imagine it’s not slowing them down as well.

You're barking up the wrong tree here.

1) The Terms of Service for usage of Kindle devices are not relevant to a contract between Amazon and an author whose work is published through Kindle Unlimited.

2) Kindle Unlimited is a "all you can eat" subscription service. Users of the service explicitly do not own the books they download and read through it, just like you don't own the music you listen to on Spotify or whatnot.
You are right, I did not realise it was the compiled code.

I saw metrics like this a while ago but it’s still hard to wrap my head around. We rarely see this enormous portion of the animals that outnumber us so much.

I grew up on a farm in the rural western US, and our few cattle lived in nice little fields like you’d imagine, but I’d occasionally go by intensive farms and you can see how they pack so many animals into such a small space that they spend their whole lives in. It’s so near but so far from all of us. And the reactions from people I know varies widely to this information or these sights.
What law are you referring to that makes it illegal for pedestrians to walk on the road facing traffic on a road in a business district

RCW 46.61.250 - Where sidewalks are provided and are accessible, it is unlawful for any pedestrian to walk or otherwise move along and upon an adjacent roadway

As for rural cycling, since there are few cyclists in the USA, there's not a lot of crash data, but rural crashes are around 3X likely to result in a fatality than urban crashes.

Data from the UK is easier to find:

Rural roads were also deadlier than those in urban areas, with a total of 140 cyclists dying in 2020 - meaning that fatalities on rural roads accounted for 64 per cent of the overall number.

I actually rather enjoyed the conversation and didn't feel it was wasted at all, but I'm sorry you didn't feel the same. I wasn't in it to win, just to explore the idea.

I'm still interested in exploring the idea, but you're welcome to tune out at any point.

> the set of operations that can be done with GOTO is a superset of those that can be done with CONTINUE or BREAK

Yes! And this is actually part of my point. If Y is a subtype of X, then the set of valid operations on Y is a superset of the set of valid operations on X. This is true for any types, by the definition of subtyping.

This means that you're absolutely correct that the set of operations GOTO can perform is a superset of those BREAK can perform, and for this very reason GOTO is a subtype of BREAK.

The reason why I'm focused on the types and not the operations is because the question at hand has been whether BREAK has the same flaws as GOTO. My argument is that this hinges on whether or not BREAK is just a type of GOTO.
Yes, for GPU passthrough you usually assign specific cores to the VM and isolate them (to reduce hiccups caused by other tasks using the core), so in this case you'd just assign the cores with the extra cache.
In addition to that, the land used for car infrastructure is no longer usable for tax generation purposes, it only consumes taxes.

Replacing roads or streets to add dining space, small shops, homes, or any other type of purpose where taxes can be generated is better long term for municipal finances.
If you have a field of dreams mentality it certainly is.

I'm not the OP, but thinking well beyond the original topic of in-memory reactive programming (where my answer would be quite different) to the world of long-lived durable databases... one perspective to consider is that any system built around N-ary relations can automatically benefit from the full range of relational algebra for transforming and composing both base data and derived relations. The flexibility of N-ary relations is largely what has kept SQL databases relevant despite the flaws of SQL itself.

In contrast, a system that only handles base data in terms of triples assumes that you have a perfect attribute-oriented information model figured out upfront. But given this is rarely the case users will want tools that help them to easily transform/migrate their data and schema over time. Ideally this takes the form of a declarative language that minimises the amount of code that needs to be written. However, without a compelling end-to-end transformation language figured out I think any alternative database systems with their alternative information models (triple-based or otherwise) will struggle to compare favourably with mainstream databases, where declarative data munging with SQL is considered valuable and routine.

Triples may well prove to be the best way to handle information in software over the long-term, but I'm not sure that the systems which currently work with triples are good enough or widespread enough to test that theory.
I hate the idea of government. It always gets too big.

> Luxury is defined by it being more expensive and presumably nicer to be in than the average thing it's competing with.

It's an intentional decision (one often done with malice where the objective is rhetorical persuasion) to run this comparison only with other apartments and not with general housing stock which is the real comparison that should be made. NIMBYs, in a stroke of genius, have managed to brand apartments that can barely fit a family as "luxury", yet the median house which costs more is just the "modest family home" that is being oppressed by the ghastly shadows imposed by said luxury apartments filled with, presumably, the rich elite, because who other than the rich elite could afford to live in "luxurious" dwellings? It is rhetorical trickery top to bottom with the objective of worsening the housing crisis and therefore adding to the suffering in the world.
>I think they genuinely though they were doing the right thing

Your job as a government regulator/agency isn't "to believe", it's to be impartial, do your due diligence and apply the law indiscriminately. Selectively looking the other way is blatant corruption.

Ask any accountant at any company. They double check everything. If you miss something and fuck up you can't just tell your boss "well, I didn't check it because I believed there couldn't be anything wrong here". It doesn't matter what you believe, your job is to check.
Yes, they are solving a problem (make it simple and faster, save time, etc) for the end user. For a subset of products, they are just jumping on the bandwagon first and deciding what do do next. The value is real and once in a generation.

That's the point, there is not alternative at the moment. Breaking up monopolies allows competition and an alternative provider when something like this happens.

> If you were never attractive before to women, you don't suddenly become attractive to them when you're older.

Most of the people I've known that say this about themselves usually fall into one of two camps:

1) They have glaringly obvious and simple things they can change about themselves that even I notice as a fairly fashion-clueless almost middle aged male. Wear pants that fit. Put a belt on. Shave (or shape) the spotty beard. Stop wearing the same style of clothes that you did as a college freshman. Go to the gym (or don't, I know plenty of overweight men that have productive dating lives because they are charismatic and fun to be around).

2) They have insanely high and hypocritical standards physical standards of beauty and discard anyone who does not reach them before even meeting them.

There are very few people who truly need significant cosmetic surgery to enter the dating pool.
You're not doing the right thing if you're helping to enforce DRM. This removes power from both authors and readers to Amazon's benefit. If you want to do the right thing, buy a physical book and then pirate the ebook.
Yeah that's where everything gets complicated, obviously people's natural rights can conflict and that's where you need to set up some sort of rules based system, but the point is that you don't infringe on someone's natural rights unless there's a direct conflict with someone else's natural rights. For example your natural rights to bear a weapon cause a conflict if you are bearing them in someone's house in order to rob them after you just broke in. Conflicts with their right to have property, etc.

There is a third category worth considering and that’s cloud gaming with a thin client.

Since January GeForce now supports 4k@120 and the hardware required to render that is probably going to be much less than the next gen kind of switch will have. I would not be surprised to see tv sticks + controller given away for basically free. Like stadia but properly this time.

It won’t be for everyone and I have no idea how quick they can scale this but it’s nonetheless an interesting development.

Currently there’s a bit of a hybrid thing going on with ideas that combine cloud gaming with Xbox or PlayStation but here the consumer still has to pay for more hardware than necessary for streaming only

Computer science != algorithms. There's also the whole systems branch! If you ever find yourself thinking about TCP, virtual memory, system calls, frame buffers, shaders, signatures, interpreters, compilers, query planners, etc. these are also things you could have studied and practiced building in a CS program.
I imagine we'll be seeing a few cases setting that precedent in the next 10 years, and it's likely that the kind of "aha I said finger, a thumb isn't a finger, so I win" argument favoured by sovereign citizens, 5-year-olds and techbros who think they're smarter than everyone else will go over as well as it usually does.
Wait, what? Where are you seeing jquery and bootstrap? Their javascript payload is around 10kb, whereas jquery is 30kb minified gzipped.
And that’s not to mention that William’s great-great-great grandfather Rollo was a Norseman who himself conquered part of northern France, and was allowed to keep his conquests in exchange for swearing allegiance to the French king and converting to Christianity. I think the term “Norman” is actually related to “Norseman”, in fact. (“Rollo” was, incidentally, probably not his real name.)

Reading the article, it mostly looks like syntactic sugar changes. Is there more under the hood? Most of C++'s problems are on the data side. Newer versions of C++ address the big issues (How big is it? Who deletes it? Who locks it?) but only by adding features, not by deleting anything.

If I had to choose a radioactive isotope to imbibe, tritium would be my top pick. Unlike many actinides it isn't a "bone seeker" and is readily excreted alongside all the other water that passes through us. Realistically you drink alot of water and beer and you'll be fine. Also its decay products are very low energy and gentle compared to most.

The article you reference is a very succinct explanation of why the ideology that it espouses is complete nonsense.

If a purple-skinned person kills a green-skinned one simply because she is green-skinned, that's skin color-based racism plain and simple.

Invoking any "systemic power imbalances" that might be in play here is simply a red-colored herring.
a) most people don't take things to extremes;
b) employee time is not a problem, as they're there anyway;
c) if all grocery stores act like this (and they do), you have to keep shopping there anyway (and they know this).

So what will actually happen, with you and me and everyone else, is that we'll grumble about how they moved the cheese again, we'll wander around the store until we find it, and we'll be exposed to some more products and implicit advertising in our search, and we'll forget about it as soon as we exit the store. Over time the store will increase its profits 1.3%, and the competing store "where everything is always in the same place as last time" struggles because their prices aren't maximally optimized with the same grocery store software everyone else uses.

tl;dr the article is refuting 1970s (and earlier) era claims about how lethal plutonium is by citing anecdotes and pointing out the maximum toxicity requires a totally unrealistic delivery mechanism.

As an aside, I believe Plonium-210 [1] is widely viewed as more toxic than plutonium. The only thing more toxic than that is fentanyl and that's only if you're a cop [2].

Anyway, so this is just a pro-nuclear power piece. Do with that what you will. I'll just point out that with incidents like the East Palestine derailment you will often find that the companies responsible have their liability limited by law. In the case of nuclear power plant operators, their potential liability is strictly limited by the Price-Anderson Act [3].

A campfire has radiance limited by its temperature. It can put out a lot of power, but that power can't be focused to a high energy density at your retina. An LED can be nearly a point source, and can deposit a lot of power at a small spot, i.e., "almost a laser." Moreover, being invisible, an IR LED doesn't cause your pupil to close. And LEDs have gotten powerful enough to be dangerous. The regulations for optical radiation exposure now cover LEDs as well as lasers.
When I looked at the studies for these claims, they seemed to be of rather low quality.

I think a huge barrier to walkable cities in America is you have to travel to Europe to even see one. No one can even visit to see what it is like without a lot of money and effort. Once we have even one decent, walkable city we will probably see an explosion of people saying "I want THAT!"

Existing clinical lab operators said that Theranos wouldn't work. And they were 100% correct.

Physicists and audio engineers said that UBeam wouldn't work. They were also correct.

If existing operators say that something won't work because it's too hard or because customers won't like it then they could be wrong. But if their statements are backed up by hard science and economics calculations then only a moron would disbelieve them.

Good. One great archive is better than none.

AI rips apart conscious intent and reassembles it using what may best be described as piecewise functions. We lose the intricacy and the detail of individual thought of the unbroken line of thinkers that came before us when we interpret such piecewise functions as conscious intent.
That is ascribing a lot of collusion and malice to what seems to be a pretty simple situation. I lived in some "luxury" apartments, and they were, legitimately, nicer than the other ones I'd lived in, although not especially "luxurious". But they weren't called "luxury" by some local NIMBY group, it was literally in the name of the company I was writing checks to to pay my rent. It made them sound nicer and fancier than the less nice apartments across the street.

It's trickery, but the banal trickery of marketing a product that you want to sell at a higher price. I doubt they were off sitting in some room laughing about how miserable they were making the world when they named my apartment building. I'm not a family, I don't have one, I don't want a house, I want a nice apartment. Is catering to what I'm looking for "causing suffering in the world"?
