Well unlike in some other places the English monarchy hasn't generally been absolute since the high middle ages. The struggle between parliamentarism and the crown last for 400-500 years. So yeah there is no single all encompassing document because there was no single revolutionary event which would have necessitated it.

Britain always led the fight against absolutism in Europe (well more or less anyway..) so most of these constitutions that were designed to curtail the power of the monarch during the revolutions of the 1800s merely brought other countries inline with where Britain already was.

US is in a similar state.It was one of the first "democratic" states so its system if full of out of date anachronisms like the electoral college, the second amendment and near absolute freedom of speech (well yeah some are bad and some are good..).

Sorry fellas I was baked. Yeah basically that's the cricket. If solutions they use are higher than those in the 'real world' it's actually a much bigger challenge than one would think at a first pass. Seeking a 1 ppm solution is a milligram in a litre, this is challenging. 200 ppb (this paper) is impressive, and on the cutting edge. Now, in the real world: 1-2 ppb and below that is where the real challenge lies. It's seeking a needle in a haystack, where your real world solution will contain a million other 'competing' species that will be preferentially bound or decomposed by your agent. The agent could be decomposition agent or a sorbent.

I've always taken emergence as just a word from the perspective of the beholder. It isn't anything essential to the thing itself. If you understand a complex system enough, emergence goes away and it's reductive again. But that's not to say that emergence as a concept isn't useful. It's very much about our relationship to our discoveries and how much we understand them.

Instant Plugins for ChatGPT: Introducing the Wolfram ChatGPT Plugin Kit
This should not be interpreted as a history about bad parenting - our father meant well. He wanted to give fighting chance to my brother in our brutal society the only way he known how and my brother really did not had any idea what to do with his life and was totally passive.

This can be read as a story about overregulation, but in this context I believe it only exacerbated the real problem.

I think that this all is more a story about our society pressure for everyone to be sucessful and have ever growing social status and material posessions.

It would be nice if somehow there was a place for people like my brother to be himself and not be a failure in game of life because he cannot handle the pressures and really does not want to do more than playing games and doing some simple job to sustain this (and this is whole other story - at this moment he is not able to find any job, because our capitalistic system does not have idea what to do with people like him).

The amount of people who get caught on insecure communication, including some famous tech CEOs, is staggering. Most people, criminal or not, are completely security/tech illiterate. Changing the default has a huge impact. Webs in these investigations tend to be wide so it's not just about literal criminals, if one suspect leaks info to anyone that may be enough for authorities to catch on, it's a statistical game basically and the harder you make it to not mess up the higher your chance to catch someone.

Gentle reminder that the US intelligence leaker was caught because he distributed the material on a gaming discord on an account with user info that was one Google search away from his father's instagram and steam profile. And that guy was US National Guard tech support staff.

Sure they do. The constitution doesen't have to be a single document.

Which is not necessarily a bad thing. The American constitution has basically become immutable at this point while meaningful reform is still possible in Britain.

Are you an author?

I have read the sci-fi short novel when I was a kid, and that was 80ies. The future earth have found signs of life on some distant planet and the science ship was sent to investigate, they got there but could not find anything on the empty rocky planet, the somewhat detective story leads them to realize the life is on the star of that system, not on the planet, and intelligent creatures are plasma based life forms. Unfortunately I barely remember this story, and cannot remember the name or author, I've read hundreds of sci-fi back then.

I also read some random popular science post about subatomic processes in cells, it gave some examples of which I recall one that fascinated me, it appears that there is a gate in a cell that opens or closes by a single electron to let a water molecule in or out I guess. This ignited my fantasy, what if there are more subatomic stuff going on in out bodies? How far it can go in reality and in fiction? What if our memory is subatomic? Could we build something on subatomic level, a logic gate for example? Can a life form be fully subatomic?

Also there is a galaxy on the Orion's belt, and the Orion is a cat, they briefly and somewhat humorously explored the idea in Men in Black which I watched many times.

There is quantum realm in the Ant-Man series. If it existed I guess super civilisation would try to go there or stay there to be more energy efficient.

There is also dr Manhattan, whose blue body I believe is photons. Imagine he was not the only one in that experiment, and our entire human race followed him, what would our civilisation be? No buildings, no machines, no crops, no transportation, would we even stay on the planet? What we would do freed from servicing our fragile bodies most of our time? I guess we would just gather together, have fun, party, make new life, teach each other endlessly. So maybe that's what stars are, each just have trillion of dr Manhattan offsprings and that's why we cannot see any signs of life cause we're looking for meatballs.

> Do your gas appliances actually work when the power is out?

Yes. The gas stove does not need any electricity, same for the gas water heater. It's nice to be able to cook and have hot water showers during blackouts.

The gas furnace does require electricity to run the fan, but it's not much. So running the furnace to heat the house during a blackout is easy to do with a small generator to power the fan while all the heating BTUs come from gas.

Here in PG&E land (might be the most expensive electricity in the country, but at least it's the most unreliable!) these are nice advantages.

You can play dubious openings and do fine all the way up to middling grandmaster level.

Memorisation is not at all important for learning to play chess. It won't make you better at the game. Training your pattern recognition, your positional/endgame/opening understanding will.

Until you're around 1500 real life ELO(which takes years for most people), all you have to do is play the game and enjoy it, analyse it with the opponent or other friends from the club. No memorisation required.

That only verifies that the app stores are not directly adding a backdoor to the APK. An exploit could still be hiding in plain sight within the code, or more likely added by the OS through various mechanisms like a direct OS exploit making it easy to read application memory, or the OS injecting an exploit while starting the app.

Have you not used Python or Perl much? Because both are full of footguns. And I don't see any advantage to for loops in a HLL. These are identical:

for i in `seq 1 10` ; do
echo i $i
done

for i in range(1,10):
print("i %i\n")

You might find problems with the shell code, and I'll find problems with the Python. But both will print 1 to 10.

I can't recommend Lichess enough.

It's free (freedom & beer), it has no ads, and it's feature-complete. It even has stuff that other websites make you pay for, like post-game computer annotation. It offers a web interface where you can play without even registering an account and free (again, freedom & beer) apps for iOS and Android.

The only downside when compared to chess.com is that fewer top-level professionals play there. Which is not an issue unless you're literally a super GM.

> human intuition performs spectacularly well at many high-level tasks.

It's also the number one most common cognitive bias. Humans are especially prone to reification - the confusion that the construction of a measure equates to an objective reality.

Humans are often launder subjectivity through the creation of metrics without 1) knowing they've done so, and 2) become emotional when accused of having done so.

The discussion for this ticket started with 9€ so it's fair to compare the result to what they set out to achieve.

9€ would have been a revolution of public transportation. A major step to achieve the emission goals of ministry of transportation, which it utterly fails at and can't even come up with a strategy how to achieve any reductions.

49€ is nice for everyone already using public transportation on a regular basis, but will not induce a significant change in transportation method used, which is desperately needed.
The idea of mass surveillance is never to counter the terrorists. It is to control the masses and have a dossier on everyone.
As someone who didn’t know but then learned it, I don’t think it is a good idea. Naive people say “I have i7”, so what? All enthusiasts refer to model numbers like 12700k. i-notation is useful in a “today” context like “recent i7” or “compared to previous i7”. This is exactly what less savvy consumers want when buying a modern pc. Latest-ish i-something to do-something like gaming, video editing or spreadsheets.
I'm talking about Russia being all in on Trump in 2016, not about Russian corruption. Russia hacked the DNC and RNC. Only passed along the DNC to Assange, who released it. https://www.thedailybeast.com/cheats/2016/12/10/report-russi...

Kyle Rittenhouse didn't commit any crimes. Brock Turner received public vitriol commensurate with his crimes; I think a better comparison would be with the hockey player who pushed an empty wheelchair down some stairs.

Briar can be banned, but for now it can't really be blocked though.

It's supposed to work in case the infrastructures are down by design.

So it can also work locally, meaning 2 Briar users can meet, and share messages from 1000 other users, and go on their way to propagate the update, without going trough the internet.

Now of course you can always enforce the ban, not through blocking, but through detection and punishment. However I doubt you want to spend that much resources for a single app.

I see the shriking of the population as a symptom. It may cause pain but the root of the problem is the reluctancy to have children. Now this is a bit of a problem because most of us realize the joy of having children a little late or to quote the philosophers „we can choose to do what we want but not what we want to want“. Children change what we want in a good way but when you need two incomes to sustain a family this is a problem.
True, but a phone capable of running a chess app is essentially mandatory in the West, whereas a board + books is an extra purchase.
Individual countries do stupid things from time to time, but what worries me is the global trend where countries are showing a desire to control communication. It comes in the form of encryption backdoors, age limits for social media, monitoring for child porn etc, but the end goal seems to be complete control of all communication channels between citizens.

The concept that governments will love to push for is where citizens need to provide identification for accessing all web services and all web activity is linked to their identification. Digital infrastructure these days is sophisticated enough to handle this and it only takes for one country to enact this and get the ball rolling for everyone else.
