It's hard to see a public Senate Intelligence Committee hearing on worldwide threats to U.S. security as anything except blatant propaganda, which makes this feel like propaganda warning us that the evil enemy may use propaganda to control our opinions.
Nearly all the time, those specific alcohol restrictions were based in classism or racism, ie, "the poors drink that so it must be the cause of all of society's ills, but expensive wine is obviously good for me!"

> The orthoganility thesis is an unproven assumption that intelligence and goals are not corellated, meaning an intelligent being can pursue stupid goals. States like that, it’s obviously wrong and laughable.

To me it's obviously wrong when stated that way because 'stupid' is not an appropriate metric for goals. We may consider goals good or bad within our value system, but that has little do to with 'stupid' or 'intelligent.' e.g. a body builder may have a goal to get as ripped as possible, a VC to make as much money as possible, an ascetic to deny the flesh as much as possible. Which of these are stupid or intelligent goals? I don't think that's a question that makes sense.

We may consider the goals of the Athenians (to expand their power) "worse" than the goals of the Melians (to be left alone)[0], but I don't see how they were "stupider."

> quite clearly that it is immoral

And who is the arbiter of this morality or the urgency of this need? I say it would be elections where everyone in that area gets a chance to vote and decide for themselves.
No, rux doesn't support HAML, since HAML is an entirely different "language" than rux. You'd have to figure out how to identify HAML embedded in Ruby and parse it with the HAML parser. Entirely possible, but not something rux will (probably) ever do.
True, but there's an interesting difference between this case and, e.g., nuclear power or something.

Government is one way to outsource charity. Vote for programs, pay your taxes, and you care. When it actually affects you directly, that's a very different kind of charity, and requires a different kind of caring.

I mean, you can verify the requests your browser is sending off whether the extension is open-source or not (by using developer tools in your browser or proxying the requests). So I don't think being open-source helps all that much really.

I still don't think it's appropriate for them to be using responding to emails as an example in their docs, especially without a warning. If someone went around sharing my private conversations with another person without telling me, I'd lose trust in that person. They'll get away with it because some people don't see sharing data with a software company as the same thing, and it's tough to know when it's happening, but nevertheless, it's sketchy.

He says it's not trivial. You have the injection molded shell, the sheet metal cover, the spring, the stamped hub, the little pads, glue, the write-protect switch, the plastic disc and the oxide layer that has to be formulated and applied correctly, for a niche product for machines that themselves are becoming obsolete.

The earlier floppies were probably easier to make, because they just had folded commodity plastic shells, pads, glue and the disc with its oxide. No special hub or fancy case.

Yes we should be sharing anecdotes.

The charts going down to the right and the maps showing territory shrinking are both important. That’s why they’re posted here frequently.

It’s also important to remember what those charts and maps mean, which is future generations having magic and beauty and wonder stolen from them. The destruction of the environment is heartbreaking on its own, but the destruction of the human experience is a whole additional layer of tragedy.

Seems like this could be improved by mandating no more than 2x disparity between spending on kids in the same grade level. Disruptors can be kicked into the gladiator camps or emancipated if they think they're so independent on what they can do.
It begs the question, why is clone a method and borrowing implicit? Perhaps it should be the opposite. `.borrow` or something like that.
JSX is a simple transformation of nested JavaScript functions, but the custom DSLs used by other frameworks is string templating, which is kind of an inversion of how JSX works. JSX also has extremely good support in just about every editor and it supports TypeScript, which is not true of every DSL.

I won't post all of it, but you get the picture. Datadog's status updates go on like this for 12 hours. This is a status update anti-pattern. These updates add no value, except maybe some small reassurance that Datadog hasn't forgotten they are down, and they continue to work on it.

But it's actually worse than no update at all, because now every customer needs to parse through a whole mess of these updates to try and figure out what's happening, and if you subscribe to the updates, you start getting spam with no new information every 45 minutes.

I know companies are in a bind here. They don't want to provide estimates they might miss, or adhoc engineering info without vetting. On the other hand, customers complain about a lack of communication if there are no updates. But spamming your status page like this is not a real update, it's a pretend update. Just something to point to when customers complain about a lack of communication, but ultimately still a lack of communication.

I still visit some web forums that has been online since the 90's. At least two still use the same ancient software that they have used since ~1995. One of those is shut down a few hours every night (US time) for "database maintenance". I find that more adorable than annoying.

Used to hate web-forums. Usability is so bad compared to USENET. But now they are goldmines of probably unique content, and far better than Discord or Facebook Groups.
Interesting I hadn’t heard of that!

> First recall all the crazy, dangerous stuff that spread on twitter/FB/yt/etc. ISIS, for example. Proud boys, other stuff.

Islamist content gets rigorously moderated on all networks you mention, for years now. The far-right was similarly acted against, but at least in the case of Twitter Musk reversed a lot of their bans, with the expected result of people spreading Nazi vocabulary or Holocaust denialism right afterwards.

> Second, consider Wikipedia. Freer than almost anything web, and THE juiciest target in narrative and informational war's. It's had far fewer major disasters than any of the major commercials. Held up very well. Runs on <1% of their budgets and is under constant criticism for being spendy.

Most of Wikipedia's moderation is done by unpaid volunteers, sans legal issues which are handled by WMF via executive actions. They run a dead simple tech stack, with most being served out of highly optimized caches.
I wonder if someone born in a war torn region with few resources and no organized society would have the same opinion.

It is just a statement of fact that the geographic location a person is born is coincidence.
They should switch to a Usenet newsgroup. Then they could keep using the same awful web interface that they are used to, for the time being, and gradually start switch to NNTP-based newsreaders.
I only ever encounter this pattern in autotools-related shell code, stuff that ultimately ends up in configure scripts.

There it arguably makes sense to be so robust against old/broken shells, since the whole point is to successfully configure the build on a broad spectrum of environments.

I have memory of seeing what I swore was an 11” floppy. I just did a quick internet search and the interwebs are saying that 8” were the biggest?

Anyone else know of an 11”?

I started as a kid in the early PC days. So 5 1/4” was common, 3.5” was new, and you’d see the occasional 8” on a TRS-80 or what not and you’d chuckle but not think much of it. But I remember finding this 11” somewhere and thinking ‘oh my god, that’s a lot if surface area for 170kb.’ I tried to keep it along with some 8” but it apparently is no where to be found after 7-8 moves since.
This is nothing like a restaurant being shut down. In normal enforcement, parties are innocent until proven guilty. An inspector comes, sees where you are violating rules and regulations, and gives you an overall assessment. In this case TikTok's guilt is being assumed based on zero evidence, and they're being asked to prove a negative.

Prove you don't have a little invisible gremlin, made of dark matter, named Kabuzu floating just above your right shoulder. And now prove it to people that are dead-set in the belief that you do, regardless of what you say. This is why the presumption of innocence is such an important part of any rational system of justice.
SQL statements are executed by the database system in several steps, including:
- Parsing the SQL statement and checking its validity
- Transforming the SQL into an internal representation, such as relational algebra
- Optimizing the internal representation and creating an execution plan that utilizes index information
- Executing the plan and returning the results
In solvespace such curves are represented by handles to the two intersecting surfaces and a series of points along the curve. This is an exact representation (you can compute as many additional points on the curve as needed) but it's not analytic by any means. Exact NURBS curves are used when possible too.
This can be turned off by setting an annotation on the resources.

It's not just like counts. That's just a metric/formalism for the narcissistic self-marketing thing that these platforms are really about. You could remove them or obscure them but some other form of observing engagement would take the same place.

>First, commercial property taxes in California are generally higher than residential.

Sure, but businesses making _more_ for an area doesn't mean residential areas aren't profitable.

>the bit of road your car is parked on usually costs more than the car.

Sensational nonsense. ~100sq ft of black tar asphalt, barring some kind of bananna republic corruption scheme, could never cost _more_ than an average automobile. Think about how absurd that statement is, and reevaluate why your internal filters allowed that statement through.

>Now walk around your neighborhood and look at how much road there is. ALL of it costs that much. Most of us don't think about it, but it has to be paid for somehow. And it really isn't cheap.

The premise is absurd, so the conclusion from it is invalid.

I mean, that's what happens with JITs like Graal. It can present a warmup issue which is part of the reason Graal did so much work to enable AOT compilation.
One concrete badness IMO is the black box algorithm of it. It's controlled semi-directly by the CCP, and they openly use a different algorithm and different filters in china vs the US, and not just for cultural reasons. Letting the CCP put it's fingers on the scale of what gets fed to millions of impressionable teens is just as stupid and dangerous as letting facebook continue to do so, with the only difference being Zuckerburg isn't a nation-state actor who is openly our rival. There is a lot of possible power for China to attempt to utilize in TikTok, do you really think they won't?

So, they do store requests for "debugging" purposes, which means they have a record of everything you're doing with the extension and probably the page you're on while you're doing it.

I'm not sure why this is necessary. Surely, they're just scraping the page and using it as context in a ChatGTP prompt. They don't have to proxy it through their servers to do that.
I've had enough lifestyle variation to say with quite good confidence that it's the aerobic exercising that helps me. Before I learned to manage my anxiety I tried to calm down by just, you know, lying down and trying to relax, but it never worked very well. My mind would just generate more anxious thoughts and it would often get worse, not better by just relaxing.

I've also don HIIT and I can confirm that 15-20 minutes of HIIT (maybe 5-7 intervals with a bit of warmup) provides the same results as one hour of more moderate form of aerobic exercising. However, HIIT, when done properly, is fucking horrible (several times I've been very close to puking afterwards). I still do it maybe once every two weeks, but I think I would die if I tried to do a proper HIIT workout every day.

Lots of countries maintain open borders. The entire Schengen zone is an open borders agreement.

This dual meaning definitely crossed my mind as I was writing.. it's unfortunate.

Whenever I encounter a dual like this I like to investigate the etymology. I assume the use in linguistics is by metaphor to its use in music, "the range of a voice or instrument." More broadly, the term register comes to us from the Latin for a list of items recorded, ultimately from a word for carrying. Maybe there's something to make of that in connection to each of these very different meanings, I don't know.

The problem with diatype is that register, although not an extremely common word, is I thought somewhat well known, whereas I've never heard of diatype. I've been known to overestimate how familiar words of this sort are to other people, though, so maybe they're equally obscure to most of my readers.

Sure and GDPR allows users to make an informed decision as to whether they wish to use a particular website or app.

Without it the user cannot know whether an app or website will track them without first visiting it. The act of loading the site can expose the entirety of your browsing activity to the site operator. Whether you would have agreed to those terms or not isn't factored.
Doesn't allow data sharing from GoodRX to FB, Google etc. But does allow Amazon to purchase One Medical. I feel like both are pretty bad. But I am trying to understand the logic between allowing one and not the other? Am I missing something?

Incompetence. Generally speaking your content creators are your breadwinners as they afford the greatest potential for monetization on your platform. the balancing act is to create a brand-safe environment for consumerism while at the same time fostering the creativity that pulls those brands.

missteps like this are very dangerous events as they can trigger momentum behind other platforms that result in an exodus that is very difficult, if not impossible to stop.

advertising companies like Youtube, meta, and major television corporations generally sway with the public when it comes to content censorship so as to maintain their product at an optimum level of participation. the wrenches in the system are when an overly vocal minority inside you product begin to push for changes that arent representative of the product. Its similar to how a small outbreak on a farm, or a unionization effort at a large warehouse, can cause larger problems overall.
I wonder if setting up a discourse instance is too much of a friction that businesses are instead choosing a real-time chat inspite of it being awful for knowledge sharing as a whole.
