> Good manners is the art of making people comfortable. Whoever makes the fewest people uncomfortable has the best manners. ―Jonathan Swift

Yes, there are places where you can't be yourself without making people uncomfortable. That's not fair, that's not pleasant, and that's not good for you or for them, but it remains true. Yes, there are times when having good manners isn't a useful goal, and when it is morally necessary to make certain people uncomfortable. That does not negate Swift's statement above.

Next up:

> One day you’ll find yourself approaching a revolving door. Note that starting a revolving door often requires some leverage, so if it’s not already moving, it’s one of the few entrances at which it’s polite to enter before a woman.

OK, this is weird old-fashioned stuff moderns think is either incomprehensible or offensive. Which is a good thing to realize: Some people have etiquette you either don't understand or find rude. Maybe you'll think better of it if you do understand it, maybe you'll think worse of it; regardless, it ties back to the previous statement, as considerate people change their etiquette rules if those rules make the people around them uncomfortable.
They can provide access to listings that you might not have accesss otherwise. They also get stuff done fast: ours had a hole in our basement fixed (weep hole; Michigan basement) that would have prevented closing. We were first time buyers and it really made things sane.
I think you may need to familiarise yourself with US federal sentencing guidelines. Unlike being found guilty of breaking state laws, where many state judges will be endowed with discretionary authority to impose a sentence within a wide range and reflecting the facts found/pleaded, my man is pleading to a federal crime involving defrauding the US government and federal judges are largely beholden to a matrix of crime/sentence with a teeny bit of wiggle room for facts and circumstances.

As a European myself, I share that weird feeling when watching Americans discuss these topics.

To me it looks like the discussion in the US has been poisoned such that there are only two options: Stalinism vs the-poor-can-starve-in-the-streets Capitalism. It's a framing from the cold war which the right in the US has kept alive. It exists to hide the possibility of a middle path, a popular middle path which Europe took after the war.

if there are no reports of “ anti white crime ” in California however it’s not uncommon in Texas is it more likely that white people are never the target of hate crimes in California or that is’s under reported there (or over reported in Texas)?

It's not really a lower-cost alternative due to cartridge prices and no sales.

I chose Steam Deck instead of the Switch. Yes the SD is more expensive, but it already supports most of my existing Steam library and I can buy new games on sale.
> Knowledge =/= intent.

How does that matter? Have you ever encountered the concept of "negligence"? You're knowingly and willfully killing multiple babies.

> Regardless, it's definitely not the intention, but an unnecessary side-effect. If I had to peruse IVF, I'd take my business to an ethical clinic that doesn't do such cost-cutting, just like I buy ethical food even though it's more expensive.

And yet you're not trying to get those baby murderers classified as baby murderers, are you? You're okay with letting people choose whether they want to murder babies to save money. Why are you okay with it in this context, and not in the context of abortion?

> Factually incorrect. Me, two days ago [1] in reply to you, about killing babies in IVF process: "It's still kinda bad".

Okay, I'll give you that. You paid lip service. Good job!

> The simplest case is that of self-defense and defense of others. If suspect A is threatening to murder victim B, it's largely accepted that killing suspect A to preserve victim B's life is a necessary evil, especially if victim B is a pregnant woman.

Self-defense and defense of others doesn't factor in, because you're not defending anybody against anything. Nobody is in danger, you're just murdering babies because you desire something. Would you mind trying again with some kind of real analogue?
I generally write with bottom of the barrel Lamy Safari or Faber Castell Grip pens, however sometimes I reach for something much more expensive to spend some quality time with my thoughts or write a letter.

I think this strictly falls into second category, and there's nothing wrong with that.
Get Ableton or FL Studio or Reaper for DAW, get Dexed as a free VST (or serum, not free), and search YouTube for "how to make synthwave with X" and you'll find a bunch of stuff.

The DAW is software that organizes all your instruments and melodies and so on into a project file and a VST is the instrument itself, more or less. So you work on a song in the DAW using VST instruments.
Looks nice.

However if I scp a script to an audited server, then execute it, would I be able to retrieve the content of the script to have a proper audit trail ?

Autonomy founder Mike Lynch extradited to US after losing appeal
I guess I might be the target audience, kinda.

I do like the polish of macOS and macbooks, but I'm not a fan of anything else made by Apple.

I used to own two iPhones before I switched to Androids.

Cables that fray and cost £30 to replace sucks. This happen tow personally, and I'm not one of those people that rides cables like horses. iPhones are brittle and bend or shatter in people's pockets, and half the time users get blamed, that also sucks. This didn't happen to me, but it was all over the media.

The AppStore I'm conflicted about, since it has a lot of boons
in theory, but sucks in practice since there's still scams apps, even with the 30% apple tax. The other anticompetitive and predatory policies also suck; they sugar coat some of them as technical reasons, but they're stills just that: sugar coating. OTOH their privacy promises are indeed nice, but I don't know how much of that is true or PR (not that those are mutually exclusive, but you get the idea).

Android and Google suck in different ways though. But at least it feels like the lesser evil, and one that's also less expensive and doesn't become redundant as quickly.

The accessory space for Apple products is bigger, which is kind of a boon, but also a downside since it's annoying having to vet everything for whether it's shit or not.
Yah, I think that’s probably true. But that’s also hard to reconcile with the reality of the adoption trending consistently away from any alternative and only towards Git. And “large margins” are indeed pretty objectively the case (from the largest developer surveys the breakdown 10 years ago was like 70% Git to everything, growing to ~95% in 2022). Usually the phenomenon you’re describing, leads to other alternatives becoming more popular not less (even if the most popular standard continues to eclipse the field. Here is would seem these highly likable alternatives for those who took the plunge are nevertheless dwindling into irrelevance…

I suspect the die-hard proponents of Mercurial, or SVN, or whatever else, these few pagan heretics that might exist out there wherever they’re hiding, have found themselves in a camp different to the Git standard likely on the basis of electing to be intentionally contrarian / anti-normative as the general catalyst, and rather not, as a function of struggling with Git to the point of being so disillusioned they call it quits and head out looking for greener pastures.
I think in practice the most common result of encountering problems with Git is, fix the problems. And functionally I think that’s resulted only in furthering it’s supremacy over alternatives, despite there existing a handful of cultish weirdos who are _really_ into Mercurial and prefer not to fux with Git as a personal lifestyle choice haha)
Here's the definition of terrorism:

https://www.fbi.gov/investigate/terrorism#:~:text=Internatio....

International terrorism: Violent, criminal acts committed by individuals and/or groups who are inspired by, or associated with, designated foreign terrorist organizations or nations (state-sponsored).

Domestic terrorism: Violent, criminal acts committed by individuals and/or groups to further ideological goals stemming from domestic influences, such as those of a political, religious, social, racial, or environmental nature.

You can't just call anything terrorism from a legal standpoint, though many try.

Sort of, yes - at least, the linux kernel has built in support for Nintendo controller connections over bluetooth, and there are some userspace drivers (or dkms, or maybe they've been merged into mainline now, `joycond` iirc) for support for split/merged/2p joycons. There's the Steam Dock peripheral for playing it docked to a TV just like the switch. The only thing missing is the ability to stow the joycons into the body of the deck (it has a built in controller so you don't need the joycons to play handheld), and you'd have to get a case for the deck with a kickstand as there isn't one built in. I've been using a Switch Pro controller to play TotK via Yuzu and it works perfectly, gyro included.

It's the old "money doesn't buy happiness" argument rehashed again -- plainly insulting to people who are actually in poverty.

If it's not good for you or them, how about not be yourself? Then that is at most not good for you.
They are just demonstration code. The alike code in production certainly is different.

TypingMind can still fork a conversation, although it does seem harder to find.

You have to click “Edit” on a previous prompt, and then “Start new chat from here”. I don’t know where this is documented, but the FAQ chatbot (https://www.typingmind.com/faqs) was able to answer my question “How do I fork a conversation?”, and it does seem to work as described.

I doubt Nintendo would be willing to open up like that, but who knows. Nowadays there are barely any exclusive games on Xbox and Playstation. Most games are made available in every platform.

Maybe Nintendo will buckle under the $$$ figure they could earn by making their games available on other platforms.

On the other hand, Nintendo could make a killing releasing a "Switch 2" with beefier hardware and backwards compatibility.
I would go for an Oneplus Pad, which as a better screen ratio (7:5), which is 1 step further than iPad in matter of ergonomy.

In my experience, 1536x2500 is not a good ratio, even if it is a nice resolution.

Google just copied Huawei, Lenovo and Xiaomi screen format.

I don't know about cpu and gpu specs but in my experience it doesn't matter as it feel mostly equals past a certain treeshold point.

Also, it costs 200 euros less.

And you make nobody jalous. With Oneplus Pad, Uncle Sam AND Uncle Xi potentially spy on you.
>Honestly this is the time to start working on a Switch successor, they could easily more than double the current compute capabilities while keeping the same or lower power envelope.

They've been working on successor for 4+ years now. That's how long new console cycles are now. PS5 dev cycle stated 2 years after PS4 released.
Would also add the security and business proposition aspect. Users and devs can see the open source software and what it is made of, increasing overall transparency in general
I don't think Teeneage Engineering's looks is that different from Bauhaus, excluding maintainability.

Lamy 2000 is built with pure Bauhaus ideals and it nailed every one of them on the head. I have many and use them constantly. I think Lamy 2000 is the only "Objectively good" fountain I have ever seen and used, and it hides its properties so well, too. It's a very understated masterpiece of design and engineering.
Nintendo has always thrived _despite_ underpowered hardware.
If you think you're going to get rid of filler, you're in for a big disappointment:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filler_(linguistics)

> In linguistics, a filler, filled pause, hesitation marker or planner is a sound or word that participants in a conversation use to signal that they are pausing to think but are not finished speaking.

[snip]

> Every conversation involves turn-taking, which means that whenever someone wants to speak and hears a pause, they do so. Pauses are commonly used to indicate that someone's turn has ended, which can create confusion when someone has not finished a thought but has paused to form a thought; in order to prevent this confusion, they will use a filler word such as um, er, or uh.[1][3] The use of a filler word indicates that the other person should continue listening instead of speaking.[4]

More to the point: Every language has them. Every language has always had them. Journalists are trained to edit them out of "verbatim" conversational speech unless they want the person they're quoting to come off like an imbecile, but longstanding journalistic convention doesn't mean filler is in any way recent.

We don't always speak without filler any more than we always speak in iambic pentameter.
recipe for bread? throw a reasonable amount of yeast and some sugar in a bowl of room-temperature-to-warm water, wait 5-10 minutes, pour in flour while kneading, until you get a wettish dough, let it rise for 30 minutes, then put the dough in the oven on basically any temperature until it looks done

Breath of the wild was probably the largest change in the original Zelda formula since ocarina of time (which introduced 3D for the first time)

More than 90% of natural gas used in the United States is produced domestically. In California, over 50% of electricity generation comes from natural gas. Supply is less precarious than just about anything else.

Even in a future where the electrical grid is fully nuclear + renewable, using gas for cooking would be a completely affordable luxury and not risky at all.

I do think it's a wonder this runs on a low power tablet computer from 2017 but if I open up Teams on a brand new machine it can be a laggy mess. I do think we have lost track of how much computing power we have and how poorly it is used.
ByteDance open sources g3 proxy (Rust)
> Most of the NP-Complete problems can be solved in polynomial time (but not all, of course!) with appropriate heuristics.

We need to be careful when distinguishing a "problem" (e.g. SAT) and an "instance of a problem" (e.g. "is this formula satisfiable?"). Heuristics can often help us solve real-world problem instances (e.g. seat planning for this wedding; a Hamiltonian path for this salesman; etc.), at least approximately/close-enough-to-be-useful. However, we must give resource bounds to such implementations (e.g. a timeout), since there's no way to know/check if a given instance will have worst-case behaviour until we run it.

What I find fascinating is that we can prove that some problems are just as hard to solve approximately as they are to solve optimally! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hardness_of_approximation

When AirTags were first released, a friend and I entertained the idea of integrating them into high-value car anti-theft systems.

Our reasoning was simple: even if the stolen car was parked in an underground garage, devoid of mobile network, satellite, or even GPS access, an occasional passerby with an iPhone might be sufficient to log the device's ID and subsequently relay it to Apple's central system.

However, in our practical tests, the positioning and tracking proved to be somewhat unreliable and riddled with glitches — a sentiment that resonates with the author's experience with her misplaced AirPods.

Despite this, I firmly believe the Find My network is a technological marvel teeming with potential. I hope Apple continues to refine it and finds more seamless ways to incorporate it into CarPlay and other products
