If they came about as the result of "natural evolution" then they can't be truly universal in the sense that evolution could very well have taken different paths that led to a species recognisably similar to us but whose nature and genetic make up would lead to adoption of a quite different set of rights than those you believe to be unalienable.
As it is, I suspect you'd have a hard time getting many groups of humans from millennia ago to agree with you on exactly what such rights are. Or are they all wrong too?
I don't think it's because of the IR filter. I have removed filters from several color webcams and they always see IR as purpley. I think it's the bayer filter - the different color channels clearly have different sensitivities to IR.
It depends on what you mean with "official release". This is generally true for binaries, but the official open source source code releases you can find download locations and instructions for on the website sans account requirement, even if it does make it a bit hard and scary from a navigation POV (you have to click through a page on "open source obligations" first and so on).

S-Expressions are not a set-based construct. Neither is JSON nor XML. Those are all document-oriented and/or hierarchical tree structures.

I did not "bless" SQL as a set-based language. It's literally a 4th generation, declarative DSL for set theory. That was its design goal. That's the lens through which every change to the language and the engines that implement it are discussed and adopted.

If I said LISP sucked at object-oriented programming and OO design patterns, how would you react? How about if they said LISP shouldn't be solely through the lens of functional programming just because that's your "blessed mentality" for it.

I don't even know how to respond to that assertion. "It's not even wrong."

That's astounding. Do they apply fertilizer throughout the lifecycle or just at the beginning? Does the balance hold counting irrigation run-off too?

> planting only native plants . . . could be attracting non-regional and non-native species

Native plants do that, too. Invasive species thrive on that, in fact. Horticulture is more complicated than just "eating local." Ok, so a good diet is also more complicated than eating local.

> native plant species are easy

Absolutely! And if you're in a place that can flood or has droughts or sometimes has wild temperature spikes, those are plants that have adapted to the environment. They live through tough times that kill the plants that haven't adapted.
We do something similar, but from my experience small changes, like fonts or lines rendering a tad different after library changes can be quite frequent. Usually small changes you can't really see, only if you compare them as 2 layers in paint.net or something.

Adding something like an error margin for all pixels or subsections sometimes makes sense, but this can be tricky. Downscaling the image and comparing grayscale values with a small error margin is another option. It all depends on how accurate your tests have to be.

Here's how it looks when you write readable C++:

for (const auto &[x, y]: zip(a, subrange(begin(b), unreachable_sentinel))) {
/* Do something with x and y */
}

I'm not sure why C++ programmers don't like using `using`, it's as if Java programmers insist on typing out java.util.ArrayList every time because you may have an ArrayList of your own in the future.

So much C++ code can become readable by adding `using namespace std::something`.
No, it's an old French word for "to calculate/to count". Today the French word for that is "compter" (and a counting machine is a "compteur").

> if any combination of the technical changes here are sufficient to multiply the number of people willing and able to touch the installer, I'll make my peace with the tradeoffs.

Do you feel similarly about the Nix setup scripts that the installer works to ensure are sourced by user shells? I'd kinda love to see those go and be replaced by a little program that sets up a Nix environment and then launches a shell for you, kinda like the `login` program. The shell-based approach has made supporting incompatible shells kinda nasty and clunky.

Lot of people talking about the Turing test, so I'm going to go upstream of that a bit and inject the actual Imitation Game paper, because it has relevance.

Let me quote the start of Turing's paper.

> I propose to consider the question, ‘Can machines think?’ This should begin with definitions of the meaning of the terms ‘machine’ and ‘think’. The definitions might be framed so as to reflect so far as possible the normal use of the words, but [...] If the meaning of the words ‘machine’ and ‘think’ are to be found by examining how they are commonly used [...] This is absurd. Instead of attempting such a definition I shall replace the question by another...

When Turing proposed his question about whether machines can think, standard conceptions of what the word think implied categorically ruled out the idea that a machine could do it. The imitation game was proposed as a way of getting around the problems with conceptions of what thinking was.

In the time since then machine learning, which Turing predicted would come to be in his paper, has come to be. It is now fairly common to discuss machines which learn and which think. For example, there are books that talk about what AlphaZero thinks of chess positions and the mechanism by which it learned to think in that way and of its discovery of novel strategic ideas and its creativity in having found them.

Language has evolved enough that the vestigial issue that forced his proposal are no longer as necessary as they once were in the general use of language. It is also the case that we have since developed technical language related to the question of whether machines think. So the vestigial issue is addressed on two fronts. Both of these drive against the use of the Imitation Game, because - and I'm just quoting Turing's own paper's introduction again:

> This should begin with definitions of the meaning of the terms ‘machine’ and ‘think’. The definitions might be framed so as to reflect so far as possible the normal use of the words

So what happens when we use the technical definitions as Turing suggests we should? Well... first millions of people who like fictional movies talk about how AI research is not AI research, which is hilarious and kind of shows why Turing felt compelled to avoid talking to people using typical language and why more generally scientific advancement often depends on the exclusion of laymen via techni. But yes, with technical definition, machines end up being capable of things which correspond with thinking, learning, creativity, reasoning, and so on.

Turing's paper, being so early, shows up in chapter one related readings. We are no longer on chapter one. So we talk about chapter one less often.

Sorry, but using new syntax to accomplish something other languages have as library code is not clever.

When reading zig code you have to stop and think, "wait does this syntax mean zip or direct product?" But when expressed as a function called zip, the meaning is clear.

(Obligatory reminder that zig devs think that sometimes running code inside `if (false)` is a minor bug of no consequence, and after all what are the real motives of anyone pointing it out, eh?)
HTTPS is not plain text. Only the initial DNS resolution is (www.google.com). Everything after that is encrypted — address, payload, etc.

The cert authority simply signs a cert saying “this public key belongs and is controlled by the owner of this domain name”. Since we both trust the cert authority, that signature allows us to prevent mitm attacks.

From there, we can do a Diffie-Hellman key exchange and derive our secret key for encryption / decryption.

That is secure and is the backbone of the internet today. It allows all of us to send messages to an intended recipient without worrying about other parties prying into our business.

A proxy introduces an unnecessary and unvetted third party into an exchange. There is significant financial and political motivation for hijacking sessions for higher access to the chatbot & future versions of it. It is not a good pattern to make a habit of.

Same. I got burned by Eclipse over a decade ago, working on a system that was a mix of Scala and Java code. The Scala plugin, at the time, was terrible. Code completion was slow as molasses. The CPU would be at 100% load and couldn't even keep up with my typing. The Scala plugin for IntelliJ didn't have those problems.
Unfortunately the cheese cloth solution doesn’t work if you’re cold-fermenting an enriched/fatty dough in the fridge, as it can pick up “fridge flavor” without a lid or plastic wrap.

For very long ferments (cold proofing sourdough for example) it’s also liable to dry out.

All other situations it works fine for in my experience.

This is a fun way to speak English, but this notion of "native" vs. "borrowed" words is incredibly slippery. For instance, the example replaces "union" with "oneship", but these words share a common Proto-Indo-European root and can reasonably be interpreted as the same word; the same goes for most other Norman words "borrowed" into English after the conquest. The page advocates the use of "Old English words ... revived and updated to modern spelling and phonology to be used for a modern meaning". How old is too old?

Not to over-charge this conversation, but it reminds me of anti-race-mixing ideologies. Race is also a much more slippery concept than some people would care to admit; we're all related if you go back far enough.
This is an Econ 101 hypothetical scenario. In the real world, there would be several years (or more) of massive economic dislocation. The bottom line is you would immediately be increasing the labor pool vastly in a certain number of trades/industries. You're also only focused on the US-- Mexico would suffer even more by having more of its most mobile, ambitious laborers flee the country.
Then they need to create small to medium projects-- For example projects that take 1 week to 6 months to create. This can also be projects from CS, IT, statistics, or other technical programming-involved classes.
Provides a new meaning to "glow in the dark"
If you wind back when the borrowings started happening in great number, you get to a time when English was mostly "purely" Germanic. That's what this project is - as if Old English had continued on without being influenced from French etc.

They're now sick, and they think that if they can get the $Xk back then they might be able to spend it on some other conference later in the year when they're better. And obviously everyone likes paid business flights to conferences in holiday destinations!

This sounds like an awesome project, what a joy to have that right in your backyard.
I joined a scale up in the BNPL space as head of data engineering.

It was one of the most poorly managed IT environments I'd ever seen.

There was so much technical debt, that basic systems where literally dead or dying (day 3, Tableau stopped working), and while I did my absolute best to address it, the constant overarching priorities were always more data, and faster data. Reliability, security, performance was my problem to deal with. (As well as literally anything technical, yes even configuration of mail clients).

The demands for solutions came thick and fast from the head of data science and where always clear as mud, yet I was pushed to the wall on immediate and unquestioning commitment for data projects and was held accountable for dates regardless of the resources, capacity, dependencies or technical debt we were fighting on daily basis.

Attempts to push back on any commitments or seeking clarification or coming back with a different solution were often met with my manager telling me, publicly in meetings, that I was going against company principles. At other times the head of data science would get extremely angry and storm out.

I ended up having to track our team's time, and I remember at one point in time in a quarterly planning session (that they had just transitioned to ) we could actually see how under resourced we where because based on our estimates (backed by data, tracked meticulously by time) of projects they expected in that quarter we could justify a 10x increase in our resources.

This apparently shocked them and us so much, they ( my manager and some other data representative) penned a pretty crazy letter to the CEO basically saying all the work the team had been doing for the last X years (since I joined) was wrong and bad and etc etc... completely unfounded. I only found out about it because the CTO raised some eyebrows on some of the claims. I ripped it to shreds pretty much questioned every claim with counter examples, and they had to throw it away.

At that point I quit.
Because initially the "some evidence" amounted to little more than "A lab exists" and "leaks are a thing that has happened". Meanwhile the other theories were being supported by science like genome analysis. As time and investigations went on, more evidence came up, but when it started being spread around the evidence being presented was absolutely so weak that as a theory it was essentially speculation.
If this is the USA, then I’m guessing you would take the minority?
"One planned wind farm in North Dakota, for example, was asked to pay for multimillion-dollar upgrades to transmission lines hundreds of miles away in Nebraska and Missouri."

"In 2018, EDP North America, a renewable energy developer, proposed a 100-megawatt wind farm in southwestern Minnesota, estimating it would have to spend $10 million connecting to the grid. But after the grid operator completed its analysis, EDP learned the upgrades would cost $80 million."

Makes me wonder what that Federal 'infrastructure bill' is paying for that is so much more important. The grid has long-needed to be a #1 national priority. And the high-roller electric companies can well afford to pay for a large share of a smarter grid.
> A German parliamentary inquiry held a hundred witness hearings and reviewed nearly four hundred thousand pages of documents, concluding that the behavior of Wirecard and its enablers was “the largest financial scandal in the history of the Federal Republic of Germany.” The report blamed “collective supervisory failure,” “the longing for a digital national champion,” and “the German mentality toward non-Germans”—specifically, Quadir and McCrum. “German supervisory authorities are not fit for the ‘Internet Age,’ ” the report concluded.

It's not just “the longing for a digital national champion”, but also the idea that american startups are more successful because they are more ruthless, more willing to lie, to commit fraud, an idea which I also see on this forum.

What's crazy is that all these variables were known ahead of time.

What is the cost of real estate in rural upstate New York? It's really not that bad! (About $10k per acre, based on a brief search, for land about 280 miles away from Manhattan. A truck could make a delivery in six hours or so.)

So why spend millions in capital expenditures on fancy stacked farms with high tech intense lighting, in order to cut a few tens of thousands of dollars in real estate costs?

The argument was that logistics costs were high. That's kind of true if you're on the east coast, and your alternative is importing from Mexico or California.

It's not true at all if you can get produce from a conventional hydroponic operation six hours away by truck.

Moreover, it's not like conventional hydroponic operations didn't exist, and this was some sort of tail risk that was unexpected. The conventional hydroponic operations already existed! They've been in business for years. All the founders or investors had to do was drive a few hours to go visit them. Or pick up the phone.
