I don't want society to develop in the most economically advanced driveling pile of shit that ever existed.
I'm reading that now as well. One of the interesting things so far is the author asserts that stretching does nothing for you, which I find controversial and doesn't align with my experience but I also don't have any evidence or reason per-se to contradict that claim either.

I do know that a 15-minute "stretch routine" should either substitute or incorporate push-ups, squats, and other, similar basic movements in the routine. Stretching on its own is quite pointless if it's also coupled with continued sitting the entire day and not much other physical activity (walking, weight lifting, running, swimming, sports, w/e).
People seem to think they can just take a load of mushies and it can solve all lives problems. The great art requires a lot of hard heart work and suffering.
All of that is financial.

> Take the contentious issue of transgender human rights [...] tended towards right-wing principles of distrust of intellectuals

There's a weird form of "intellectual"ism going on these days.

I've gotten insanely mad pushback on my contention that we simply cannot know if Covid leaked from Wuhan. (Or, back in 2020 we couldn't - who knows where we're getting now.) It could be easy to show there was a leak, but would be almost impossible to show there wasn't. Note that I wasn't saying "we shouldn't take the vax" or anything, just the leak issue. Total rabid culture war.

Similarly, there's a huge push that "trans women are women" and that there's science for this, gender spectrum and so on, but there's no ability to look behind the curtain. The studies don't show what they purport to, and don't match the claims they're being used to defend. Nobody has attempted to show a midpoint on the sex spectrum, and even if they did - the argument has moved on and now trans is an issue of self-id that doesn't require any physical issue. Bring this up and you're "literally saying trans people shouldn't exist", etc.

In both cases there's no depth to the argument, despite that it apparently comes from the best scientific minds in the world - it claims to be a factual claim but when you ask to see the facts it becomes a purity issue where you're then shamed for not simply believing. I was told I was a Covid denier because of not simply accepting the no-lab-leak story.

> perhaps the latest stage of right-wing politics could be defined as the replacement of democratic law-and-order with righteous authoritarianism

One side makes "facts" a matter of righteousness and the other side simply eschews facts for their religion.

Alright, I'll bite. Not all password managers are the same. In particular, the good ones have no direct access to your data. It's encrypted before reaching them, so even if they get hacked, the attacker can't access your passwords without your master password as well, which hopefully you're not giving out.

You don't have to trust password managers if you don't want to, but if you want others to accept your reasoning as to why, you'll have to convince them using an argument that actually applies.
"decent" or "great" are personal emotional responses, they cannot be true or false
Well, Christianity is a big reason. It was so successful for so long in part because it aggressively repressed any ideologies which could have threatened its hegemony. Since the Church considered the ’scientific’ domain to be part of its curriculum, new science was generally a threat.

Or rather, "carrying it to an extreme". But we don't have to carry it that far. Eliminating inherited positions is a huge and sufficient improvement. If you go all the way to "no family or friends at all", yeah, I'd agree the problematic aspects might outweigh the benefits.
Rephrasing your statement, (current) Syrian nationals chose to go into a field (out of how many?) that they knew was greatly restricted without a change to their (current) nationality, and are then restricted. Nothing to due with punishing refugees/immigrants.
That's true-ish, but don't forget that a space elevator is also an enormous amount of orbiting mass all on it's own. So a small bomb can cause it all to come down and wrap around the planet twice.
That does not match my understanding of the history.

A) Didn't the US prevent technology transfer to the USSR as much or more so?

B) The analyses I have seen have said that the reason the USSR fell is because it could not match the USA industrial/technology base, and specifically that in trying to keep up with US defense spending, they ended up spending 12-15% of GDP on defense (compared ~5-6% in US at the time), and that this was a big problem for them, that they were spending more than they could afford on defense.

C) At the time the USSR fell, which the US considered positive and a victory... it still didn't have a "modern industrial/technology base", did it? At that point, we started helping Russia (not the USSR) develop that, and encouraged privatization of the economy... that was done in a way to create an oligarchy... that led Russia to where it is.

i don't understand what you're talking about, a history where the US "made the mistake of allowing the USSR to buy its way to a modern industrial/technology base". By doing... what? That resulted in... what? What actions or inactions of the US or USSR are you talking about?

Yes it was profitable. That was one of the painful parts. I re-entered the job market in 2018 but my wife and I maintained the business in our free time with my employer's knowledge and consent. The business was feeding into our life savings, had a lot of assets and we had about 500k unique visitors per day (not huge but nothing to scoff at either). Our bandwidth bills were our major expense. All of that was taken from us because of prudish anti-porn attitudes and fear.

Also, from what our visitors often told us, there was a perception that our site was 100% ad-free. This is because the content was all there to promote affiliate programs. I know that it's common for people to ask "why would anyone pay for porn when there is so much free stuff out there?" My 18 year "career" in the industry taught me that it is a symbiotic relationship. The free stuff advertises for the subscription based sites, and neither would exist without the other.

Citation needed. Not Tesla's "stats" that if the people compiling them completed anything more than high school statistics are intensely misleading.

Comparing a subset of miles driven on the simplest and easiest roads (because the systems can't be used and are turned off) and comparing to accident stats across ALL roads is disingenuous to the extreme, and Tesla continues to tout it.

Short of pulling over, humans don't have the opportunity to say "let's disengage, because it's a bit challenging", and then not have to worry about "counting" any accidents from there forward.

Ketamine was huge for me. I have major depression and generalized anxiety disorder. I've been on medicine that I would consider very good for me for four or five years but I wasn't getting to where I wanted to be.

By the time I took Ketamine in a clinical setting (legalized in California), I was spending 80% of my time fighting negative narratives inside my head. "I want to die" (not really, but my engineering brain had decided this was eventually a solution to every problem... Louis CK has a bit that is basically identical to the way my brain was thinking)... "this person hates me so I should hate them"... "all I ever do is fail". I only had 20% of my brain left for interacting with others. I was not a nice person to be around for any period of time. I would be withdrawn a lot because I was in my head.

My therapist asked me once "what would it feel like to wake up and not immediately feel defeated?" and I legitimately had no idea.

After a series of ketamine treatments the narratives calmed down immensely. 80%->10% to some periods in a day of 0%.

I truly despise the actual act of taking ketamine. If you're doing lozenges it tastes like shit, I always felt very nauseous after the trip. I found the trips weird and not therapeutic. Like weird patterns, sometimes seeing things gloopy, sometimes odd experiences that sound fun but just felt strange and disconcerting like flying through hyperspace with Gandalf. But the long-term results have been life-changing.

I would recommend ketamine to anyone who has gone for 2+ years or 2+ psychiatrists and haven't seen the results they had hoped for.

Why wouldn't you use a basic filter on logs before even reading them (or passing them elsewhere)? Maybe even get ChatGPT to write that for you if you're so inclined but it can just be a simple command as grep works fine.

After that, even if it's still a massive file, chunking it to ChatGPT should work within its limits (although I haven't personally used it for logs so I can't recommend this).
Thanks for the tip! I will check it out!

Precedent isn't whataboutism. You cannot claim that the intentions of the US are to oppose dictatorships or whatever while also supporting saudi arabia. I mean, you can, but no amount of "whataboutism" accusations will make the claim credible. It's fine to just say that the US is doing it to counter a geopolitical rival, it requires a lot less mental gymnastics.

Unfortunately for the Byzantine empire it spent most of its centuries in a population/territory/economic decline.

Back in 541-542 an outbreak killed about 40% of the city’s population.
But even during the period 1347-1453, a total of 61 plague reports were noted.

They only had the wealth, peace and population to focus on science to a very small degree. That they managed to stay afloat for as long as they did is a testament to the science the original Romans left them, and which we can thank the Byzantine's for preserving.

Great. Then I want them encouraging corporations. I don't want my power company limited to the risks that their CEO can absorb (so projects under what? 20% of the CEOs disposable wealth that the CEO will willing to risk on the total of all projects?). I want a power company that can risk creating large solar farms and absorb the lawsuits that the CEO on their own would not be willing to take on if they were bearer of so much responsibility just couldn't risk it. You are pushing for a world of all large projects being limited to those done by billionaires just like the world of peasants that existed prior to the creation of the concept of corporations. You are pushing a much worse and limited world for the little people where they can't pool their resources and do ANYTHING larger than any one individual can assume the ENTIRE risk of.

I have the same setup, Syncthing + KeepassXC with the add-on: it's not quite as seemless as the Firefox password manager.

You have to pair the add-on with the KeepassXC program once. Whenever you visit websites that you have saved passwords for, you are asked (via popup) if you want the add-on to fetch the login name and password (because it can handle multiple login combinations for the same websites). Then you have a second click on a small symbol next to the login form which then actually fills in your login data.

> Real journalism is difficult and ultimately expensive.

I'm not certain that that's the case, at least in Canada.

Time and time again, much of the lowest-quality reporting/journalism I've seen has been from the largest Canadian news organizations that have significant resources at their disposal.

On the other hand, most of the best journalism I've seen has been from the organizations that are far smaller, and with far fewer resources.

It has even gotten to the point where relatively average individuals who are merely live streaming or sharing videos/photos of events end up providing more detailed, representative, objective, and timelier reporting than the large news organizations.
