That sounds like Boris Johnson's defense (about the partygate) "yes, the investigation shown that people were hugging and partying right in front of my eyes, but you have no proof that my brain recorded these information, so you have no proof I've lied when I've said I did not notice".

Presenting herself as entirely willing does not mean that suddenly the person who is "consuming" is not participating to a sexual assault when this person is conveniently closing a blind eye on either or not she has been coerced: Epstein already had a bad reputation and was a registered sex offended at the time, including for coercing minor to have sex. It is just bs to play coy and say "weeeell, maybe he did not know", and just show the person saying that is going out of their way in semantic to reshape the discourse into victim blaming.

DevOps guy here is just running a Plex server and probably pirating porn on his work laptop because why not at that point. Can’t even bother updating this which Plex makes literally about as easy as they possibly could. It’s a one click fully automated process with zero interruption. Was he using internet explorer too?

Or was it his work laptop or did they just let him log in to work on any random computer?

Did he actually get any work done? I want to hear an interview from this guy. How did he get hired as DevOps while avoiding all the basics of fundamental basic work practices?

There are plenty of ways of managing multiple buffers, and tabs is... just one of them, and, it's just not good... Complaining about it just means you don't understand how to use the editor you are complaining about. These tabs are for people who come from another editor and think they need tabs. Similar to how you can have scrollbars or panels with buttons to do things in Emacs, but they aren't there to improve editing experience, they are there to help the inexperienced to transfer their experience from other editors onto the new one.
Pretty much, and one really key thing is that chip development has incredibly high input costs. It costs hundreds of billions to build foundries for a particular chip design, and then you have to build whole new ones when the process changes. This is only sustainable if you're able to sell huge volumes of chips. Cutting China, which roughly half the world market, means that companies don't have incentive to invest in new chips.

And we're already seeing the effects of these policies. NVIDIA decided to invest into building chips that pass export controls instead of building more advanced ones that wouldn't https://www.fool.com/investing/2022/11/11/nvidia-new-chip-ch...

Meanwhile, China is addressing the problem by just pouring unlimited resources into building up its own industry https://www.scmp.com/tech/tech-war/article/3212249/tech-war-...

I predict that China is going to be far ahead of any western firm within a decade.

Simpler syntax != simpler semantics. Also syntactic sugar can simplify language comprehension but adds tokens.

I think Ventoy is the way to make a bootable usb stick in 2023. If anyone would ask me.

You run the tool once to setup a usb disk. Throws ISOs into the partition it created. And it's done.

And from this point, you don't need any tool to update image on your bootable usb stick(whatever it is linux, windows, gdisk or whatever tool iso). All you need to do is open the drive and throws ISOs in or delete whatever you don't like.

Edit: it seems it is also capable to boot into a VHD disk image.

I think it's important to remember that Shopify doesn't have a singular ad product. It's a platform to build a web store on, and merchants can add whatever they want to their shop, but Shopify doesn't collect any data across shops.

That's the shop's data, not Shopify's.

Can you provide more context on this? I have so many questions

It probably wasn't a funny experience for you, but this made me laugh.
It's definitely a tricky question once you get to proper production context & I think their stance there is overall reasonable given the thorny questions.

However I don't see why they can't provide a sandbox mode with associated terms. They delete user data & impose restrictions all the time with trial accounts after all.

If they want to get people to try new parts of the million cloud products providing a safer mode to experiment would likely do a lot to encourage that. Hell I mostly steer clear from learning BigQuery precisely because I've observed it seems to feature disproportionately frequently in posts like these.

If I could designate a section of the account as testing/non-prod and limit it to $100 I'd definitely explore more freely.

>easier to save face by comping accidental overages than risk deleting user data.

With the added benefit that you get to keep the money from the likely substantial group that writes off minor mistakes as school fees / not worth the hassle. Probably immaterial but worth keeping in mind that comp cost flow through 100% to bottom line profit/loss.

Granted all the clouds seem very generous with their comp'ing accidents, but still feels like a very intentional power dynamic - rather than giving the user control the clouds reserve unilateral power to decide the users fate. The fact that they're magnanimous doesn't change that.

That’s really fascinating and very different from my experience.

It’d be a really interesting project to measure and classify people’s individual thinking mechanisms. That daemon that seems to exist at the boundary of the conscious and unconscious.

Then again, maybe we wouldn’t want that as yet another data point to be bought and sold.
Mine escalated until I broke his nose, clear sailing from there to the end of elementary school.

>Is this because oil/gas has penetrated the Canadian government lobby and made it too big to fail?

You're almost certainly onto something here. Much like why water cooled nuclear reactors are still a thing, despite molten salt reactors having been around for about 60 years (as in, before any of those water cooled reactors melted down with a catastrophic hydrogen explosion, caused by you know, all that water).

We don't have an energy shortage. We have political obstructionism.
Sensor size, which is a characteristic of the camera body, has a massive effect on bokeh. Also things like colour balance can be affected by the camera body, though this has less of an effect if shooting RAW.
Then sue them for not doing anything. Or start a rightful social media and media campaign so it cannot be ignored. Get them fired. This is clearly a situation where adults failing to do their job should get their careers ended permanently.

Small Differences in Mother's Behavior May Show Up in Child’s Epigenome
Tell HN: X reshapes the brain” et al. are meaningless statements
These types of posts are recurring.

The most generic version of this would be "brain shaped by experience".

If two people are instructed to lift their finger, but one is told to point up and the other to point down then bravo they've "reshaped their brains".

These sorts of articles are always meaningless junk.

No matter what experience is the subject of the article there will ALWAYS be changes to the brain that reflect it.

Examples:

"Widespread usage of mirrors associated with brain changes"

"Running modifies neuronal connections"

"Eating spaghetti associated with increased neural density in the pasta pathway of the prefrontal cortex"

"Being bilingual associated with larger language-processing centres in the midbrain"

"People who wear blue are more likely to have more efficient neural connections in the visual cortex associated with the colour blue"

"People who regularly drink are more likely to be hydrated"

"Cats usually have four legs"

So yeah they're pointless articles and a waste of time.

But here’s what is actually going on:

Canadians Fear China Swayed Elections That Kept Trudeau in Power
Well, yes, the person who decided to do this should be personally punished, but if you don't punish the company, there is no structural incentive to not do it again.
No, I don't. it's the people who use Intellij need to try other things, expand their horizons to understand how awful their editor is.

This is usually very visible when an editor tries to have something they call "Emacs keys" or "Vim editing" etc. Where once you try it, you instantly realize that the editor trying to mimic a decent editor is just so far behind, they, in principle, are incapable of implementing anything like Emacs or Vim.

Intellij products are targeted at amateurs, they aren't meant for people who are professionals at text editing. Similar to how you can buy sporting equipment, for example, designed for people who just want to stay in shape / have something comfortable to go to the gym in, and equipment meant for professional athletes. Eg. bicycles, where a typical city bicycle isn't even trying for the niche of being used in Tour de France.

Pretending that there's some kind of competition between Intellij products and Emacs is like thinking that you'd do just fine taking your average Home Depot 200 Watt drill to a concrete wall.
The mother of three part is where she went beyond her means. Children are a luxury, and they're one of the more expensive ones people widely indulge in.

By all means, if they're a major value in your life, spend your money where you choose to. But don't be surprised if that means it comes from another part.

That said, at some point demographics are going to result in a need to incentivize child rearing politically, particularly in developed countries. It may be wise to look to how difficult this process is going in China and Japan and get out ahead of it before it is the emergency it's growing into over there. We may take an ever present labor pool for granted thanks to immigration over our Southern border here in the US, but not every job can be filled by a migrant worker with little formal education.
No, but maybe we should think ahead and outlaw some of the activities that will abuse this technology.

Hi Terreta. Yes, it feels like it stops abruptly. Plenty directions for elaboration. But weeds started to get thick. I am thinking separate satellite posts will do better.
It's hard. Doubly so if you really tick some of the boxes of people's preconceptions, like not being able to sustain yourself doing the thing you identify yourself with. In my case, I'm a musician, but I have a day job plus I do sound engineering which in terms of the income is in between.

What do you tell other people in this situation? It depends on the person, but telling others you're a musician either means you trust them enough not to roll their eyes (lots of people don't, merely being polite), or you just don't care, in which case it can be a kind of a challenge (k, let's see how you react).

Also, personally I suspect this can be a huge barrier to ever getting a job in tech.

Pre-seed any nearby system that looks like it could develop life at all with doomsday devices preprogrammed to activate the moment a technosignature is found.

The EU tech sector has been repeatedly reamed out by US and Chinese companies. They aren't a model to copy; something went badly wrong in Europe over the last few decades. Possibly they are too slow to hire when an opportunity presents.

I went to have a look at what powerful and inspiring tech companies the Europeans have managed to put together [0] - they've got ASML (decent effort) and SAP (wouldn't want to hang my hat on that). FAANG, TSMC and the AI revolution are not things that the Europeans have the capability to organise. They even had phones taken off them because they just couldn't make progress happen.

People argue about how much of this comes from the internet/twitter; in the case of latinx it's clearly an internet phenomenon. The word is entirely unpronounceable, it could only have developed in writing.
Not everything is about passion projects, actually most of life is not about passion projects unless you want to be extremely poor (starving artists), you manage to be independently wealthy, or you stumble in to a job that can be it. If your passions align with most peoples passions then those jobs are rare and you're waiting for the people ahead of you to die so you get a chance at that job.

Really what you're describing is simple fear of change. You've spent your whole life studying and now you see the end where the bulk of your time is not studying any more. You can go on to make a career out of studying but again that is an extremely competitive field and if you didn't plan for that before now it can be difficult to get in to.

It sounds like you've fallen for the marketing trick to keep people unhappy. The idea that you have passionate about something in order to do it and to do it well. That kind of marketing is great to keep you unhappy and continuing to throw money in various directions to pretend that a passion project is what you need in your life. It's a lie. What you need is probably something you've never been taught, you need grit. Grit is what keeps your grades high even when you're unsure about what's next. Grit will make you the best intern that a company has ever seen. Grit means that you don't have to like the task in front of you but you'll damn will do the better than anyone else. Grit is the difference between someone who achieves while others whine it can't be done.

When you've developed grit you've found true passion. Passion for thing means that thing controls you and if that thing changes (which it always does) you're plunged in to depression. When you can redirect that so your passion is about personal achievement regardless of the task you've found the grit to continue and passion you want.

> Vitamin D naturally occurs when people go outside and get exposed to the sun, and going outside is correlated with all sorts of healthy traits.

There is a difference between studying the effects of vitamin D and the effects of vitamin D supplements though. I agree with you on the "general health" variable, because I think it's likely there is some correlation between being somewhat health-conscious and taking vitamin D supplements (unprompted).

However, there is no correlation between going out in the sun and taking supplements. (There might actually be a slightly negative one as some people might start taking them in winter when they don't get a lot of sunlight).

So if you see a strong correlation between taking vitamin D supplements and reduced prevalence of dementia, I don't think this could be caused by sunlight exposure.
Weird question. I'm equally willing to pay for working links as I am to pay for the content, so the variable becomes irrelevant. A broken link is no different from broken content.

I would argue that he definitely does. Most of his developmental lineage follows a similar path the the most commonly understood ancient societies. He augments that with modern knowledge, certainly, but is doing most things in a manner “of the time”. He uses tools/technologies from previous videos to build upon the next versus bringing in outside/modern assistance, usually (there have been cases where it’s not completely feasible).

Turns out that it's easier to store and transport a few hundred thousand dollars worth of gold than it is to store a few decades worth of salt and farming equipment.

Even if you're prepping for a disaster you see as inevitable, having a means of exchange set aside helps maintain some mobility and flexibility.

Money lasted from pre-Sumerian days through some pretty cataclysmic scenarios in the past. Hollywood notwithstanding, I don't think anything coming down the pike is going to leave anyone saying "darn, I have all this gold."

Now, sure, fiat may go worthless, its backing tied to the economic output and taxation of systems that may well crumble. And yes, things like salt, water purification tablets, even seeds, could well become currency (tobacco was currency in colonial era Virginia). But it's worth considering why you're saving what you're saving, and whether you're leaving yourself open to be blindsided.
Ezsockets – Rust WebSockets made easy
Hi, because of the complexity of creating a WebSocket Client/Server, I made a library that simplifies everything into a easy to use declarative API.

It also implements heartbeat mechanism with automatic reconnection.

The Server's Session object itself is concurrent, so making a chat-like server with is very easy to do.

It's a thin actor based wrapper around tokio-tungstenite, but can be also integrated with Axum, and in the future - with actix-web.
