I think you missed their actual point

>It all adds up, and it’s all out of the control of the typical citizen. Consumer food waste is less than a quarter of the total.

That this is a systems level thing and not a policing your household thing. Re-read the last sentence in the second portion you quoted, I think their intent was to raise and dispel an objection in the same stroke.

The article as a whole reads so strangely - on one hand it positions the problem as systemic and needing to be handled that way by pricing in externalities, on the other it trips over itself invoking the tried and trusted 'better blame yourself' rhetoric.
Oregon recently legalized "shrooms" in therapeutical settings and is gearing up for that to start:

Yeah you could immediately tell it went off-nominal if you played kerbals before. I always thought the way kit works in KSP isn’t realistic. Well turns out it’s quite the opposite :)
> We just need a Timothy Leary type professor to kick off this decade into what is clearly set to be a repeat of the 1960s.

I registered an account for the day via Tor, I encourage others to do so while that's possible. (In a non-abusive way.)

American Millennial here. Sorry... United States resident. Gotta be mindful 'America' has many countries...

We don't need some professor handing out acid tabs, we need professors who avoid politics entirely but strongly encourage their students to vote, then educate them such that we repeal the bullshit drug laws Nixon passed back during Vietnam as a way to coerce those who wouldn't fight in that travesty.

To be fair, I've actually not tried LSD, the one time I was offered it was the night before I presented at a workshop. (I mistrusted the person, since when I said "Uh, I read on Erowid it lasts for about 8 hours and makes you stay up, maybe tonight's a bad night" they got aggrieved... every other time I just said "hey, I've never tried it before I'm gonna stick to beer but let me know if you need help finding your way out of this techno bunker" and it was very live and let live.)

What we NEED is a relaxation around cannabis. It doesn't... permeate... in the same way tobacco smoke does, it doesn't last as long as psychadelics, and a bad "trip" isn't as intense.

Ever since Google was founded I've seen people be weird about drug use in hiring and firing, paired with the alternate path of "serving your country" in order to trade salary for security.

Why should I go work for the FBI or NSA for a couple years, ignore illegal activity, then quit in a huff having been put through an expensive program, in terms of time and the sense that you are taking a slot away from others who could do useful work if they put them on CSAM instead of drug shit?

For those of us who have a very specific set of skills, the phreaks and weirdos, it's wintry economic climate out there if you don't want to kill brown people with robots, but do want to protect the homeland, because time and time again the folks who claim to want to protect us try to coerce us into weakening the internet, especially if you didn't go to an "elite" school.

A concept that's interesting in our world since for example, Harvard's kinda down there in the ranking for CS. (The times folks refuse to listen to 'the data" are often the biggest tells.)

Treble damages always seemed fair to me. Have an independent third party determine the profit made from illegal activity (to avoid, or at least hinder, shady accounting practices). Triple it, and that's the fine. Obviously wipes out all the profit, has a punitive aspect to it including a buffer if they successfully hide some profits, and you can spread the fine out if you want to avoid bankrupting the company.
This same system brought COVID vaccines to the rest of the world in warp speed.
1. Friends and family helping each other with their issues isn't profitable, but selling drugs to "help" with their issues is.

2. Similarly, unbroken families aren't profitable, but split up ones are: divorce proceedings, 2x apartments/houses/taxes, higher dependency on the state for assistance, no family to help through issues which may beget drugs (see #1).
Pretty high model flop utilization:

MaxText is a high performance, arbitrarily scalable, open-source, simple, easily forkable, well-tested, batteries included LLM written in pure Python/Jax and targeting Google Cloud TPUs. MaxText typically achieves 55% to 60% model-flop utilization and scales from single host to very large clusters while staying simple and "optimization-free" thanks to the power of Jax and the XLA compiler.
I'm not sure I follow. We are talking about the party who caused the harm. The harm isn't caused when a lie is posted on the internet. The harm isn't caused when the lie is repeated on the internet. The lie itself can cause no harm. It is just information, and information cannot harm.

Irrational people can, and do, reach for a lie and, out of poor judgement, create harm. But the poor judgement is the problem, not the lie, hammer, or car. The latter three do not act. If people were infallible the existence of the lie would mean nothing as it could not possibly lead to harm.

Of course, people are not infallible and harm will be created. The onus being placed on the party causing harm, not those who made commonly used tools available to the party at fault is recognized everywhere else. What is special about Google?
I do feel that something like this could help me. I've spent quite a bit of time solving some of my problems around anxiety and fear, but progress is slow, if at all.

And sometimes I feel like I just need a "click" in my mind to change perspective. I know what my problem is, when I'm looking at myself as an observer, but it is just so hard to get out of it.

I have been making steady progress by reading up and working on my self "naturally", but it sure would help if something external could make things easier. Unfortunately I don't know if these drug therapies will ever come to India.
Just a speculation - if the story was true then the search warrant was just an excuse to seize remote admin access control key to some other server(likely RAM server). Also any one else noticed mullvad has a socks relay in russia(check the browser addon for firefox or Mullvad Browser > Switch location) .... well that might explain why /b

OR ... something more fishy is going on behind the scene.
TL;DR: homes right outside FEMA flood zones are still highly exposed to flooding risk, but the homeowners are not required to buy flood insurance to qualify for a federal-agency-backed mortgage, leaving both homeowners and lenders to bear any losses caused by flooding beyond FEMA boundaries.

If you own a home right outside a FEMA flood zone, you can probably buy flood insurance for a lot less $$$ than homeowners inside the zone. If you can afford the premiums, do it!
I totally bought into it (before the launch) until I actually scanned the QR code.
That was a display of the telemetry, so it indicated the actual status of the engines as far as I understand.

If they had intentionally disabled some engines, they would have mentioned that on the stream.
A thought follower.
What I was really worried about was an explosion at the launch pad, that would have really delayed things so I'm glad that didn't happen. Par for the course in developing a new rocket seems to be two failures in the first 10 launches, so they can have their next one fail too and still not get a bogey. I hope they at least make it to stage separation next time though.
There are ways to mitigate, but not eliminate, the presence of traumatic situations. Whether that is the purview of government perhaps is another question.

I suspect war and bad family environment are a massive source of trauma of US persons; the path to mitigating the former at least facially is a bit more obvious.
I've never heard of it. If I ever needed to get rid of a pet belonging to a sick parent or whatnot, I'd take it to the humane society.
i mean you might get a pure breed puppy for $1500-2k but if its an adult you'd be lucky to get $200

My guess is its just some made up story by the CEO to try to get his employees to work harder because some anonymous employee had to sell their dog
It's good to know that I am not the only one who gets a little choked up about spaceflight. Yes, we have many things we need to do on this planet - but, we cannot keep all of our eggs in one single basket - humanity needs to reach for the solar system, then the stars.
Some of his employees may as well accept the challenge, quit his firm and take 3 WFH jobs at once, aha!
So who should be liable here?

Google restored links to the defamatory content but the content was unable to be removed from where it was hosted. Do you try to go after the person who posted the content? What if you cannot? It's easy to end up in a place where victims have no recourse because Section 230 protects the platforms and the original poster cannot be tracked down to answer for their libel.
This is assuming a strategy that aligns with your values. SpaceX has been made successful with their strategy. Look at their entire history of explosions and see that every major issue like this has taught them well. They are eating EVERYONE's lunch
> AI porn is giving more power than ever to people who wish to hurt women

How do fake nudes hurt women?

edit: i'm guessing you mean using someone's likeness without their consent to create porn, something that was easily doable prior to AI.

AI "gives those people more power" as you put it, but it also gives defenders more power. AI safetyism (aka pantywaistism) is a joke.
I agree but it’s hard to navigate out of it organically. The mental health crisis is quite similar in origin as the obesity epidemic. In the latter it is largely caused by the food environment and we could avoid the vast majority of cases of diabetes by changing our societal food environment, but how does one do that?

A politician that bans or regulates sugar is not going to be popular. People want their sweets, or at least the option to have sweets. So what is the medical system to do if it can’t modify the food environment? It generates drugs that treat the diseases caused by the food environment. Similar with mental health.

There are society-wide environmental factors likely contributing to huge rates of depression and anxiety, but how is any one person or organization supposed to change that? So what does the medical system do? It generates drugs to treat the mental health conditions caused by environmental factors.

It’s a bad equilibrium but it’s hard to see a path out. Otherwise if you decide drugs are bad you have still have the environmental causes there and a bunch of untreated diabetes and suicidal people.
Looks like the internet doesn't know either! I wasn't even aware of the veg version until today.
There are many, many ways to find a passion (and a career path). I was failing badly at Physics, and stumbled, almost accidentally, into programming. I found it easy! And I had a great career as a programmer, doing things that came naturally to me.

So here is one problem you do need to solve: find something that you do know how to do and put your energy and passion into that. (By the way, I cannot play a musical instrument either - and I have tried over and over again. Love listening to music, just cannot learn to play it).
Indeed.
that wasn't the issue. Issue was that the coverage of the launch was dominated by it.
I love watching launches, find it relaxing, exciting and extremely thought provoking about our place in the cosmos. I also love watching live sport. but not at the same time.
>> Firstly, copyright doesn't have anything do with the problem outlined in the OP

> Sure but it will probably lead to the same thing happening again.

No. The "same thing" is was people didn't preserve things that other people now wish were saved... but only just barely. No one here actually aching to see the lost silent flim "The Devil Dancer" or would watch it if they could, they're just reacting to a statistic. Here's another statistic 99.9999...% of everything ever said has been lost. None of that has anything to do with copyright, and eliminating copyright would hardly change a thing.
Thanks for your efforts over all these years
>a place in SF

Maybe you are referring to The Cheesesteak Shop (est. 1982) which has 20 or so locations in the SF Bay Area.

Incidentally, I find the default cheese when you order in person (white American cheese) is better than provolone.

Fortunately workers can now say “I want to work from home because I like it better than your shitty office environment” and if the employer doesn’t like it they can go pound sand and find other workers.

Honestly this works as a very nice filter bubble for me. You want me to be on-site because you don’t trust me to be productive unless you can see me? Boy, I bet your Jira hygiene is a lot of fun to be subjected to.

I’ve made the permanent decision to not be forced to work in an office ever again. It will always be my personal choice where I am physically located: you probably aren’t paying me enough to control my location.
$1.1 billion in sales, $300 million in inflation riddled dollars paid over 5 years, I would say it is a good deal depending on the profit margin.

What are the profit margins on their drives anyway?
I've also struggled with depression. If you're certain there's no rationality behind it (self-esteem, family ill, money problems, war, health etc), it might be worth considering medication of some description, but most depressive episodes can be solved without any kind of medication. Most medications simply mask the problem and don't deal with the root cause.

That's not to say that medications can't be useful in tackling the root cause, they can be, but not uncommonly, the negative side effects outweigh the benefits of taking them versus just resolving the problems in your life. CBT (Cognitive Behavioural Therapy) can be very effective for a lot of problems.
Cash in envelope is still welcome.
The problem is that people tend to look for solutions before they truly know the problem. Practice searching for problems, at the lowest levels, again and again. This detective type skill will train your mind to break things down into manageable pieces. Solutions to problems that have been broken down far enough are usually self evident. But you are looking at end products, wondering why you can't solve anything. Does that make sense?
> what's the point of using AWS if all you're using is EC2?

It's very high quality, gives great audit, you can have the same control plane in a ton of regions... EC2 is fantastic.
"The distinction between a chrome app and a webpage is very minimal"

It can be minimal, it can be significant difference, all depends on the PWA implementation.

Installed app has a shortcut/desktop icon, which is good for return engagement. A flash screen ratehr than the blunt loading of a web page. The UI can be instantly there as well as some content using offline tactics. A PWA isn't compromised by all kinds of browser real estate.

A proper PWA can definitely be better or approach a proper desktop app, but it's true that few implement them in that rich way.
Fan support is always important. It gives an extra boost to the players
I recall old interviews stating 3 off is fine for nominal flight of a loaded starship. It was empty (no payload) so probably more failure is ok.

But there are limits on how assymetrical the boosters force can be. With 5 then 6 out I wonder if spin was due to too much assymetry.
I hope we get more details.
I say this only half-jokingly: think of the satisfaction you feel when a challenging piece of code finally compiles. You know there is a lot of debugging ahead, but progress is progress.
Exactly what I felt too. Jumbo rocket on first launch spinning, feels right at home, just missing Jeb/Valentina :).

Big kudos to the whole SpaceX team, and all the surrounding people who have gotten things this far and I'm exciting for the next attempt!
Same. Seeing the rocket clear the launchpad and race humanity towards the heavens... amazing stuff from SpaceX, the entire Starship program is a fraction of NASA and other space agencies' annual budgets yet SpaceX continues to conjure the future.
I understood the point, but was simply commenting from a different angle. Otherwise, I agree with you - I found the rest of the article pretty unremarkable. Lots of blogger words without much substance.
What makes you think there are fewer sociopaths in tech than marketing?
Also, some people treat their inanimate cars with more loyalty and love than a pet, so it’s not really that weird.
There's something about American culture that facilitates various psychological conditions. The aggressive, over-expressive, utilitarian individualism, the inability to just stay calm and quiet and think in solitude, the emphasis on material wealth and well-being and looking "sexy", the social warriorism and activism on the same issues.
I agree 1000%.
We Need to Talk About Session Tickets
I love this comment. Because it doesn't try to even explain the reasoning.
erm... reduce the number of traumatic, life-threatening situations by taking away the guns? Get your police force under control and stop trying to control peoples minds and bodies could be a good start?
>As the parent comment noted, these issues aren't as prevalent in other cultures

They said it without citing a source. There is evidence that there is higher treatment seeking for PTSD in high-income countries, including the US, but that doesn't mean it's exclusive to the US or that it isn't prevalent in lower-income countries with less access to mental healthcare.

Honestly, facilitate a culture of supportive interconnection between people where we are less afraid to share our deepest selves, even when they are shameful and painful, and more confident that we will receive the open-hearted support we need at a time like that.

So, I do understand why we turn to medication.
You have misunderstood the question. Chrome already allows you to "install" these things today. This post is about a change to Chrome's installation UI. Chrome's installation UI will support the "screenshots" property in the installation manifest now.

When the person you are responding to writes, "What user problem is being solved by this?" they are not being asked to have the value proposition of "installable" Web apps explained to them. They are asking about exactly what they say they are: "Why do I need a screenshot of the "app" (i.e. webpage) I am already using?"
This was a test flight so it lasted long enough to do its job. They seemed quite pleased.
Is this legal or do you have to state somewhere that the content is fake?

If it is, it'll be interesting to see how the law will develop (across the globe) regarding fake/generated content in the time of GPTs and such.
> I'm curious - in theory all the processes inside are the same, except, what it should be slight overhead, from Swarm/K3S itself.

What I saw during benchmarking was that the load on the worker nodes was almost the same for both K3s and Swarm, presumably because most of the resources were used by the actual container runtimes and containers themselves, the overhead for communication with the orchestrator not being too notable.

However, when I tested the whole setup under load (containers serving lots of web requests, databases inside of containers etc., some containers eventually getting OOM killed and restarted), I found that the leader nodes had more pronounced resource usage differences, as described above.

My guess is that Kubernetes (even K3s) is just a bigger and more complex system than Swarm, which probably also explains the comparatively higher requirements/overhead (for even single node Kubernetes as well). That's also why I'd be careful about running anything apart from the orchestrator on the leader nodes.

SpaceX’s Starship Explodes Shortly After Launching Uncrewed Test Flight
That is American positive thinking. Usually really good for motivation, but sometimes annoying and hard to read for us non-US people.
But do you believe it because of the science or because you really really want to believe it? That's a serious question. I don't expect a ready answer.
> I can’t see how you’d disambiguate someone who is anonymous for good versus bad reasons.

One obvious clue would be that there are no attacks coming from my IP address.

Google and facebook are digital marketing companies.
So the US Government is banning US companies from selling to Huawei for US national security reasons. Those reasons can relate to potential threats rather than proven actions. There is no court of law and presumption of innocence until proven guilty in this process.

The Chinese government could absolutely ban Chinese companies from selling to companies closely affiliated with the US Government if they wanted to and I imagine there are some Chinese companies/products that are subject to export restrictions.

Various governments around the world are enforcing different import/export/data rules to protect their citizens.

These things are all 'fine' or at least understandable and well within the expected behaviour of sovereign nations.
Not blowing up on the pad is a huge success. The rocket got past max-q, and they’ve proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that 33 engines can work together on one booster. I remember a couple years ago when folks like you were confident that it was impossible to run that many engines simultaneously.

You may love make, but make doesn't love you back.
Evidence-free claim.

Huawei even let the UK secret service inspect Huawei networking gear, e.g. [1, 2, 3]. They only found badly written software, which is hardly unusual. A much more likely explanation for the US sanction on Huawei is simply anti-competitive measures. Huawei had simply outcompeted the western telecom gear providers, and they complained to their governments to ban the superior competition.

I am certainly not an expert but the first stage looked very shaky to me. I honestly did not think it was going to get off the pad and even after it did, it seemed to be struggling. But I really don't know if that is a correct observation.
Success was defined as the rocket leaving the launchpad. Suggesting that this test “failed” is at best a mischaracterisation.
It is a success. They cleared the tower and able to collect data to do course correction.

Failure is not being able to finish development of starship within a reasonable time period. This is just an iteration.
Good point. He probably learned his lesson (at least for launches) from that point on.
This would actually be a great (albeit ethically dubious growth hack) way to leverage LLMs…wire up a script that can create some amount of user accounts, then have them talk to each other in comments or forum threads that are started around various seed keywords.
