The problem would be building 20%. That is a lot of housing. I’m not sure that even 5% would be possible with low interest rates. With interest rates where they are now, builders are going to be very conservative.

I'm sure there's a million things out in reactland for this, but even in vanilla JS it's pretty simple. I'd write it something like this: https://github.com/JacksonKearl/JSEnumComboBox/blob/main/ind..., demo at https://jacksonkearl.github.io/JSEnumComboBox/

Neither JS nor Python really have types at runtime or any other time, but you can approximate them with Objects and/or Classes (of course, I repeat myself ;) ). With some TS magic you can even get the `setEnumClass` call to be well typed, though if I were building it from scratch I'd make the EnumClass prop immutable, too many weird corner cases otherwise.

I've never worked extensively with Qt myself, but when helping out a friend making Maya plugins in Qt we'd occasionally hit SEGFAULTS from writing seemingly mundane Python that'd crash all of Maya. That was enough to turn me off of it, but looking through the docs you linked there are some compelling components. It's nice to have a component library separated from a specific framework (in the React/VUE/etc. sense)... I don't know of any in JS. Every framework seems to think their (incompatibile with everything else) approach to reactivity is the hold grail, and being modular across it would be impossible.

Though reconsidering, I suppose Qt is sorta the same... it's just another framework and their "signals" aren't Python. Ah well.

Diving deeper, signals are weird... they aren't even really part of the underlying C++! Some sort of strange new modifier Qt invented at the level of `private`/`public`/`protected` and such. https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/signalsandslots.html
Sam Altman has said OpenAI wants to make the models configurable with minimal restrictions, if desired. I imagine they’ll only do this in the API rather than in the branded frontends like ChatGPT to offload any backlash onto the consumers of the API.

It would make sense if there were 2 commands, tmux-server for starting the server and tmux-client for starting the client. The client would then support options to connect to an existing server or spawn a new one.

I'm a big fan of abstracting away details of little importance. But if I risk using an old server with stale values in its environment, I prefer that to be made explicit and not abstracted away.
Marriage is not all its cracked up to be. My divorce 1 year aniversary is this month, after being loyal and faithful for 12 years, I left due to abuse. I am now raising our child alone and I am so much happier now than I ever was while married.

If it's a definition argument it's a pretty significant one, that underpins the functioning of our society. Is the law something the public has, through its representatives, consented to? Or is it something the administrators and enforcers of the law have decided unilaterally without that consent?
> Well no, it's a fact that we were behind the coup.

There was no coup and no-one recognizes it as such.

> It's also a fact that Kiev cutoff the water supply to Crimea. The question is, why wouldn't you think it's obvious that Russia would have a problem with that?

Don't invade other countries and you won't have to deal with such issues.

> the only difference between Kosovo being recognized by more countries is because the US wants it that way

The US is not all-powerful and has a long history of initiatives that have failed to gain traction despite best efforts to build support. But never before has Russia been in such international isolation. No-one besides Syria and North Korea find their narrative convincing.

Why no-one supports Russia, not even countries that are usually sympathetic?

Highlights an edge case of informed consent (medical consent).

Basically, it's impossible to "internally give" consent when done under any sort of threat.

In other words, she may "express" consent, but not "internally give consent."

What does that mean? Probably, she'll get strongly supervised treatment and nothing untoward happens. But then what happens if she suffers a serious side effect of the treatment?

The point of that comment is that millions of people actively choose to ignore the entire concept of a health care system and the science underlying disease. Those people simply wouldn’t care about the differences between Covid and other diseases. They’re certainly not going to care about a WHO fact sheet.
Disease denial wasn't invented with COVID, it's been around for as long as medical treatment has been, ranging from "I am not sick" to "Sure, I have it, but and I'm fine so your claims about it being a risk are BS" to the flat-out crackpot "germ theory is fake, wake up sheeple". COVID only showed exactly how many people are disappointments.

Do you know where to find Ursula's accounts of this? I've always been interested in her writing and life.
Absolutely - loads of companies (including the Royal Mint) sell them online. Prices seem to vary depending on whether the issue is collectable or not. If you're not fussed about buying something collectable but just want the best price, the mark-ups seem to be around 5% over the price of gold. Note that as well as not having to pay capital gains tax on profits, you don't pay any VAT [like a sales tax] on the sale either. This is very unusual - almost no other non-essential item is zero-rated for VAT.

It's true there's often a tenuous relationship between blurbs and books, but setting up reviews as the more reliable alternative to blurbs is untenable. Most reviews I read, especially in literary publications, have little to do with the book nominally under review. Mostly the book is there to provide the occasion for an essay, and the only part of the book that actually makes an appearance is the title.
Yes! Which is why isolating them, even if it requires incarceration, doesn't strike me as unreasonable.
>So people who say "I couldn't fall asleep" are misleading? What they should have said is "I didn't want to fall asleep", is that what you mean?

No, I meant that whether they wanted it or not at the "top layer" (the conscious "I") is irrelevant, the whole brain stack needs to "want it" (or at least, a big enough chunk of it, so that it's put to action).

>To most people "I" are the parts they control, the rest they talk about as if it was something else.

Of course, but most people are not trying to be precise and reason about their brain workings, the way conginitive science or TFA does. They just use whatever simplified mental model is handy, accuracy be damned.

People also historically believed that "I" is the "soul" too...
This article doesn’t really have that much to do with “Serverless” at all, nothing in it inherently hinges on the Serverless model of outsourcing.
That's interesting, but would those pots be as sturdy as fired clay pots? If you drop them, will the break more, or less easily, I mean, than fired clay pots?

I'm asking because they look a little too loose to me, and btw, the material seems less easy to mold than clay.

In any case this is a very interesting piece of information from a scientific point of view, but for practical reasons I think fired clay is much more practical (because much faster to make stuff with).

He was CEO until end of 2021 which is way after the harms of centralized, for-profit, ad-supported social media were clearly visible, both at Twitter and its competitors.

If he wanted to rectify his "mistake" he could've at least attempted to do so, yet I see no signs of that, so I'm not buying this story. My opinion is that he got rich of shitting in and poisoning the centralized social media well for everyone else, and now wants to double-dip and do the same for (supposedly) decentralized networks while garnering sympathy about how he supposedly made a "mistake".

> she said the star performer was a guy named ASCII, who really didn’t get along at all with Octal

I'm not convinced. ASCII is 7 bits only, which doesn't fit much better into 2*4 than into 3*3. It's not like the extra bit would be "wasted" anywhere, both octal and hex are only for displaying numbers, not actually used in memory.

That's not my experience. In fact it seems GPT is especially adept at metaphors and analogies, because they mirror the layout of its training data. It's very good at identifying related concepts; but try to ask it for a concept that has no relation to anything else, and it will stall out.

Q: What's an example of a recursive analogy with a layer of irony to it?

> An example of a recursive analogy with a layer of irony to it could be the statement "the world is a stage, and we are all just actors playing our parts." This analogy uses the concept of the world being a stage to describe the world itself, and then applies the same concept to individuals within the world, suggesting that their actions and experiences are just part of a larger performance. The ironic layer comes from the fact that, while the analogy may be true in some ways, it also implies that individuals do not have agency or control over their own actions and experiences, which is not necessarily the case.

No one's asking them to eradicate the fungus. They're being asked to filter the outgoing air ventilation on the barrelhouses so it doesn't spray fungus (and fungus food, in the form of ethanol fumes) over the nearby community.
To add to this, we have poor understanding of the sequential deployment of gene expression patterns over a lifetime. A genetic change that prevents a disease in an adult, might have unintended consequences in a child.

I had heard that myself but was a bit disappointed in the very mild flavor and coffee-like smell. Needs a bit of soy and mustard to give flavor. Not as odd as people said imho, and more accessible than kimchi. It is gooey however.

I was talking to a psychologist/counselor that works with one of the counties in the Bay Area. He said that top 10 most frequent people he sees costs the county well over $1 million per year, and the top person costs over $10 million. He said that about 30% of the people he works with need counseling but he also confirmed that there simply is a large percentage of people that he works with that need to be forced into treatment and he agreed with Michael Shellenberger's approach in the book "San Fransicko". He said even within the Bay Area, people bounce around between counties, and there is no system to keep track of them, and that also leads to a lot of wasted money.

This is a perfect case of how sometimes people need to be forced into treatment for their own good, and for the good of others.

The issue of government overreach is absurd in these extreme situations. This woman is brazenly ignoring public health, probably because of a mental health issue. There needs to be a way to declare some people as being unfit to care for themselves. I, for one, think that if you are so addicted to drugs and/or alcohol or are so mentally ill, that you drop unconscious on the sidewalk, you should be put into forced mental health care for at least 60 days or longer.

But the other side of that token: people who show interest in something don't necessarily constitute a viable market. We're in a novelty and entertainment phase with Bing right now, and access to it costs nothing. Turning momentary excitement into a profitable product is not a sure thing.
>In the 90s programmers didn't have that luxury, all hardware was the same

I mostly agree with you. However, the 90s was actually a period where computer hardware became rapidly obsolescent. The 486 to Pentium transition, for example, meant that lots of people had PCs far less powerful than the PCs used by games developers. Quake is a case in point. Quake came out in 1996 and would not have run on a typical PC bought only two or three years earlier. A few years after that, many games would only run acceptably on PCs with 3D graphics cards (which were by no means universal).

This is not free market, but a captured regulated market. Companies bet that the government will cover over their mistakes. In an actual free market where the company and the people making the decisions would be held accountable for the damages done to 3rd parties, this would not happen. The need to insure would motivate people to find cost effective ways to make it safe. Consequential failure is a big motivator.

I work for a place that is regulated by the city and insurance. I find the city to be unhelpful, unresponsive, and largely useless in helping us. They just want the fees paid. The insurance companies, however, will send out inspectors that work with us to right anything that might be unsafe, explain their concerns, and generally are looking to have a good profitable relationship with us.

There was one company that did not do good inspections. We stopped working with them and now work with a different company. I have no such option for working with the government as we are quite locally based.

Also, the city owned sewage treatment facilities are major polluters. Government control often leads to pollution (see various authoritarian governments, our military, various municipalities,...)

As for the sense of mutual obligation, it has withered, but my bet is that it is the theoretical outsourcing of it to government which has undermined it. Without that failing crutch, we would have to work together and look out for each other, bringing to the table immense social pressure for those outside social norms. That has its own downside, but it is much more flexible and resistant to corruption than the monopolistic government power structure.

One danger is, of course, rich outsiders who can take over large tracts of land with money. But in our current system, they buy up politicians who use eminent domain to take the choice away from the owners and the people at large. In a private ownership system, they would have to convince everyone to sell which is way harder to do.
FYI: dividends in the US count as regular income. For higher incomes, they get taxed significantly higher than 30%…

Well my dude, fair enough. Maybe I misunderstood your first comment as I thought maybe you didn't know the hats were made in China but for the price point I hate to tell you this but $50 is the new $20. I really don't expect quality clothing for under $100 - $150.

My personal opinion, is that it would be worth *your time* to go bespoke. There is no reason to not treat yourself to quality clothing in your lifetime. Complaining takes no real effort and you are worth putting the time into.

Imho, A Few Good Men is a great movie because, especially for 1992, it spoke directly to those gray areas.

About ten years later, after 9/11, the US established Guantanamo Bay detention camp, where in 2023 there are still people (32?) held outside of normal legal processes.

I would expect that the 32 remaining, out of almost 800 total, are a clear threat to the United States.

But is it right to keep them there? What are the moral implications of the rest of America looking away while ugly work is done with their authority and in their name?

Colonel Jessep isn't 100% wrong (Santiago's death may have saved lives, but his death shouldn't have happened), and Lt Kaffee isn't 100% right (Jessep broke the law, but people are not owed unvarnished truth without earning it).

Everyone's who's worked for a large corporation, even outside the IC, knows that many things are done in that grey area, with the expectation bosses would deny asking someone to do it. See the recent news about Union Pacific train wheel bearing inspections being pressured to pass.

To me, the balance of any system is accepting an optimal level of corruption/abuse, in order to permit efficient functioning. Grease lets things slip, yet also decreases friction.

It's ugly, sad, and terrible... but also necessary. A perfectly enforced code of laws would rapidly implode any country in the world, because it wouldn't leave room for interpretation and exceptions.
It is not unusual to incarcerate mentally ill who are endangering others. There's no government overreach here in my view.
