Nope. I'm describing a reality in which Silicon Valley Bank et al shareholders have all been wiped out. Same with Lehman Brothers et al last time round. Their bad loans and securitised loan purchases were very much not in the interests of their shareholders, who very much did bear the downside risk of them. Other bailout recipients repaid their emergency loans (just like profit making companies in every other sector borrowing from a hypothetical State Bank would be expected to in an alternative arrangement where the state decides to handle the consumer side and lend to everyone except money lenders)

Certainly the line of reasoning that the bailouts could be skipped altogether in an idealised system is very persuasive as a propaganda line for people proposing terrible policies like "what if it was impossible for people or businesses to borrow money without the approval of the state board for borrowing money" (or "what if ordinary depositors were subject to the same risks as capitalist investors") and arguments like the OP's which conflate the concept of maturity mismatch and insolvency are very persuasive to people that don't know the difference. But personally, I prefer to analyse how things work rather than compare their respective propaganda values
Musk says Twitter is roughly breaking even, has 1,500 employees
Ah that would explain it; thought the plug-in access would mean all they have. So it would need to appear in the list with the rest?
The real article is infinitely more interesting than the original article above. Painting with butterfly wings! The processes are super interesting and the result is remarkable. I’d love to get my hands on some, I hope they commercialize this.
Your linked page says that Britain had four opt-outs before they left the EU, more than any other country. At some point it even has five opt-outs.

Not sure if they had opt-outs immediately when they joined the union (as the grandparent claims). But they were surely the member for which most exceptions were made.

Some non-Brits were actually happy when Britain left the EU, since it removed a member that frequently blocked or slowed down integration. Not sure whether this is true though.
Circumcision is one of those things that make me pessimistic about any societal change. It's an unthinkable act in most of the world, and broadly considered medically unnecessary for something like 99.9% of penises. With the exception of some religious nuts, no one does this to their son in countries like mine, but in the US the status quo means that the chance you'll lose your foreskin as a baby is about that of calling heads on the flip of a coin.

It just doesn't seem to be about facts at all.

The apparent fact that the people who are pushing for personhood of embryos and rage against people reading a book in drag seem perfectly fine with male genital mutilation really highlights that this isn't about the welfare of the children at all.

As the father of a young son: damn, people are stupid.

Puberty blockers are not safe. That's true. Their relative risk is judged against suicide, an all too common outcome among untreated trans kids (and adults).
Sorry, I can't take your objections seriously. The tweet itself was pictured in the fine article. (Always a good idea to read TFA before commenting.) “Context” presumably means (exactly as per its definition) “in response to what”, etc.
They specifically mention that one of the advantage for them is the loudness management, to avoid having video with widely different range when their user are scrolling through their timeline.

I think Opus also has loudness management, but they seem fairly specific about the one that xHE-AAC provide :
> Instead of burning in a specific target level and dynamic range compression (DRC) profile during encoding, xHE-AAC allows us to leave the original audio characteristics untouched and delegate loudness management processing to the client via loudness metadata, for the optimal audio experience based on context.

So maybe the xHE-AAC does provide a tangible benefit in this department.
Academics? At least in what I've seen of the US satanic panic, there were no academics that I know of. Journalists, police consultants, quack shrinks (I forgot which kind of psy.* they were), political and religious authorities, and generally people who had some power and/or money to gain from the panic.
+1 to this

You’d never know it without asking me but my sloppy handwriting is the product of trying to add cursive concepts to my print writing style because everyone said cursive was good therefore it must only be able to enhance print writing. What a phenomenally useless skill. I could have spent those hours reading books.
Those two statements are compatible with each other, since hitler rose to power in 1933.
Yes, it only matters that it fulfills the algorithm requirements described in ISO C++, how the implementation look like is another matter.

Still, this is going way down into the weeds and very far away that any mature AOT compiled language offers good enough speed, ignoring toy compilers done by students.
> By advertising that guns aren't welcome, you just created drama and an intense desire for people that were never interested in the first place to suddenly find themselves involved and to want to deliberately break your rules.

> You just created a situation.

That sounds borderline victim blaming.

Someone decides that their conference is safer without guns, advertises to not bring guns as a requirement for entrance and now it's their fault for creating a situation. It doesn't make sense. Because the opposite: ban guns and don't advertise it, would just create another situation when someone came with a gun...

The gun nuts create a situation, they can choose to not bring a gun or not go to the event, they choose to be overly dramatic about it or not.
Yep. Strictly speaking what's happening is that the pattern has a higher spatial frequency than the sensor, and the light detection acts as a non-linear interaction which aliases the higher frequencies down into the bandwidth of the sensor.

A wide-angle lens would change the effective bandwidth of the system, as would a larger sensor: all either would do is change the apparent size of the moire pattern (possibly so it's less annoying).

What you really want is something that would act as a spatial low-pass filter in front of the sensor; something like a very slightly frosted piece of glass which would prevent any feature size smaller than two sensor pixels from being resolved on the far side. I imagine if that wasn't a completely stupid idea for some other reason that you could buy them.
It sounds similar to another quote.

“In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and been widely regarded as a bad move.”

Rather than feeling scared I think you can use this to productively guide you.

Look through the prompts he is using. Do they strike you as something a random person can produce? Not really. They show that Simon has excellent understanding of sqlite and how to do benchmarks. All ChatGPT does for him is speed up the typing. My experience has been that the quality of output is heavily correlated with the quality of input. Good clear prompts give good output. I postulate that if Simon had worse understanding of benchmarks and sqlite he would not have gotten as good output.

If you as a developer make your money by doing what ChatGPT is doing (turning clear instructions into working code) then you are going to be automated away. If you as a developer make your money by having a good understanding of the tools you use and by communicating that understanding clearly, then you have to type less in the future.

The silver lining is that even without GPT good understanding of tools and clear communication were always the more important skills to learn. ChatGPT just solidifies existing structure.

Powershell is well...powerful and I can't say much bad about it. Bash scripting can be a pain but I like using bash scripts to chain together io from installed programs, the same task is difficult in powershell. Powershell lets you do stuff nicely if you stick to powershell modules and .net stuff. It's not very nice when wrangling output from $randomprogram.

But regardless of platform I use bash or powershell usually for very small self-contained scripts and python for anything more extensive.

I always say powershell is more akin to python or perl than bash except python never got around to making repl into a shell interpreter or nice things like script signing enforcement.
Maybe I'm just "good at tweeting" but my average top-level tweets have at least as many views as I have followers. The "bad" ones are maybe around 15-25%.

However, if I link to an external article or something, the percentage of people who actually click on it is relatively tiny.
For people who are accustomed to the *nix world, PowerShell can feel like the uncanny valley of shells.
I would say there will probably be more demand for live music since at some point YouTube music will probably have a channel that just makes up music on the fly based on what you like. So your computer can produce any sound or mashup that you want. But there will never be ai live music in the same way as people unless you have undetectable robot people.

> I think it was Hermann Hesse who wrote that "If you hate a person, you hate something in him that is part of yourself. What isn't part of ourselves doesn't disturb us."

People who have experienced trauma from the actions of people can hate other people who they think are doing the same sort of actions. I guess it could be argued that you hate the response you have to a person's actions, and thus hate that thing that is a part of you. But I don't buy or agree with this. It focuses too much on the person experiencing the emotion and not enough on the actions of others that prompt the emotion.
Why rub it in?
Effective Altruism is the worst form of philanthropy except for all those other forms that have been tried.
Good point, but you may want to avoid the word 'tranny' when you mean transvestite (or preferably, cross-dresser or drag queen) or transsexual or transgender person. 'Tranny' has been embraced as a hateful slur and is generally considered offensive and derogatory.

I agree wholeheartedly. I like jails a lot (and jails+ZFS even more) and I'm not a fan of Docker at all. But the entire planet adopted it and isn't even aware jails exist.

You won't find a premade pihole jail, a downloadable HomeAssistant jail, etc. That's what I mean with ecosystem. Being the better solution is surprisingly unimportant when nobody knows you exist.
I recently read the Fate Horror Toolkit. It's a tabletop role-playing book dedicated to writing/improvising horror stories. They try to trace typical horror plots/clichés to the underlying social fears, typically of US society. Very interesting read for people who are into storytelling.

And yes, there are a few paragraphs about transgender fear in horror.
So with this, the last thing Go had going for it over Java is gone, right?

Java has an obviously better type system, while Java originated the billion dollar mistake, Java also at this point has much better practices around handling nulls than Go, Java's jars are more portable than go's binaries, Java's GC performs better, Java has a more mature ecosystem and more libraries... Java has better IDE support and comparable compile times.

I guess at this point the only major difference is that you can teach a 3 year old to write Go more easily, so ChatGPT produces correct Go more easily than Java, and the dependency management story differs a little (though I don't think you can really call a winner or loser on that one, it's just different)

> functions have to copy them

I'm not an FP expert, but I understand that objects usually are immutable, which means functions don't change them, which means that there is no need to copy them. Even if there are changes, unchanged properties would point to the respective properties of the old object, minimising memory footpint.
In theory yes, I didn't test it though.

"You keep trying to turn things into binary factors"

I am citing the researchers, about the significant problem that prevented eradication of Polio. None of them mentioned antivaxxers as the main reason(or any reason at all), only people here in this thread did, with the original comment implying it was only because of antivaxxers. Which is just not true here.

"One valid interpretation of the setbacks we've encountered in eradicating polio is that number needs to be a bit higher."

So I am not a virologist, but if you think your simple solution and intepretation is a valid one, then it should not be hard, to find an actual virologists who states the same.

And if you cannot, maybe accknowledge, that the problem is a bit more complex. If vaccine refusers would have significantly prevented the rollout of the vaccine to reach significant numbers, it would have been mentioned as a reason. But it wasn't. The campaign alltogether was still likely a huge success, but just not in its goal to eradicate polio.
Do you have the Facebook container extension?
Well, color theory is a vast topic, especially when it comes to color reproduction and so on, but for UI design this is of lesser concern. However, basic stuff like the color wheel, complementary colors, perception of colors in terms of perceived contrast, "signaling" colors, knowledge of optical illusions etc. is pretty much 101 knowledge of anyone who wants to create really good designs. There are many traps you can fall into if you ignore this kind of knowledge. This goes even further with the entire field of cognitive psychology dealing with such things.

Typography also plays parts in human facing design, like being able to discern I and l and other such things. You may get by without all that, but I have seen too many cases of broken stuff, and that website from the OP is a big mess, pretty much counterexample of what I call "good design".

From your source, their 2021 net profit was -$6.5M and their 2020 net profit was $1M. They seem to be mixing the $24.6M in negative cash flow for 2021 with the $1M in net profit in 2020? Doesn’t make any sense.
I explicitly want single-threaded execution within a tenant. After writing the original post, I figured out how to parallelize across tenants. The trick is to limit the query to only look at the next pending job for each tenant, which then allows for using SKIP LOCKED to process tenants in parallel:

SELECT job.job_id, rm.data
FROM qbo.transmit_job job
JOIN resource_mutation rm USING (tenant_id, resource_mutation_id)
WHERE job.state = 'pending'
AND job.job_id = (
SELECT qj2.job_id
FROM qbo.transmit_job qj2
WHERE job.tenant_id = qj2.tenant_id
AND qj2.state = 'pending'
ORDER BY qj2.create_time
LIMIT 1
)
ORDER BY job.create_time
LIMIT 1 FOR NO KEY UPDATE OF job SKIP LOCKED

If anybody here is buying online from a store that is not on the list, let me know. (With a short description of what makes it special.)

I got inspired to build this when I saw how much of an outry the closing of Book Depository caused. Although I have not yet completely understood what made Book Depository special. Was it only the free international shipping? Or was there more to it?

If a sales contract says that, by the way, the seller now owns your first-born, then that clause is void because it’s illegal. It doesn’t however mean that the contract is void and that you have to return what you bought or have to reimburse the seller. It’s the sellers fault that they put an illegal clause into the contract.

It’s different from if the law would say that the whole type of contract is illegal.
Well it's not really ushering it in, given that this is what Haskell has had for a decade at least.

I don’t know if you’ll laugh or cry to hear this… last month, CCP accepted an investment led by a16z to develop a blockchain-enabled game.

“With key game systems developed on-chain, this new project will also leverage smart-contract blockchain technology, focusing on persistence, composability and truly open third-party development to create a new relationship between virtual worlds and players.“

Maybe not, but phones can be connected to headphones and speakers which can. Especially if they connect via 3.5mm audio jack.

Yeah, this is not true at all. The leader of the opposition was literally removed from parliament for mocking the Prime Minister by calling him a thief.

Which is likely not even factually incorrect. PM Cares lol.
