>>Some argue that the temporary albeit serious inconvenience to the mother [is outweighed by] the life-long value to the unborn child in a similar manner.

>I don't think this line requires any comment.

This is one of the secular counter-arguments to abortion rights. My apology, I misstated the direction of the "outweighed" part. A very simple and principled restatement: life is more important than liberty. I am not sure why you have chosen not to comment on the key argument in my post. Perhaps the outcome is so obvious to you that you cannot imagine another rational being who would hold the opposite view.

>Again, same as with any other fallacy, like flat earth.

Again, this is not the same kind of argument. You really seem to like to pick on flat earth, maybe because it's an easy target. Why not at least pick an ethical debate instead of a factual one? There are plenty.

>If you cannot understand flat earther's arguments, that's a weakness of your own mental model? :)

I was very curious about flat earthers, sovereign citizens, anti-vaxxers, 5G phobics, and other similar "alternative truthers" because I in fact cannot understand their arguments. The more I look into them, the more I have come to believe they are mostly afraid and feel out of control, so they seek something that explains, even if it's insane. I would in fact like to be able to simulate their mental states more accurately, but I'm not sure how to get there without the mask becoming too heavy if you will.

>FWIW, I do understand those arguments. It's just that I also understand they are stupid and evil - because they flow from ideology which is stupid and evil.

I dunno about "evil". That word has way too strong of a connotation. I'd say the typical ideology associated with pro-life people is very paternalistic. They feel that they know better than you what choices you should make. I don't appreciate that dimension of their ideology at all, but I see the same traits in a number of different circles outside of the American religious right. For example, I hold the somewhat radical idea that suicide is an extension of a person's right to self determination, but many others seem to think that they have the right to force a suicidal person to stay here against their will.

Thanks for the insight, I greatly appreciate it! This definitely is a reasonable idea for many things and I'm looking forward to seeing something similar to the sharding mechanism in the future.

I've only started to think about this and I'm thinking the hardest part will be dealing with cross-cutting concerns (in a non-auto sharded world manually creating multiple database) and trying to find a way to keep each database isolated without extra burden compared to using a hosted Postgres.

Apollo was feasible because there was a very real risk of the entire USA being destroyed and every voter knew it. It was a race to technological and military superiority against the USSR and the Apollo program was a big part of that. That existential fear and risk doesn't exist today, there is no appetite for that level of commitment in the general population. AOC herself could kill a program proposal like Apollo with a single tweet about proposed bathroom door labels.

>The justices in a 9-0 decision reversed a lower court's ruling that had revived a lawsuit against Twitter by the American relatives of Nawras Alassaf, a Jordanian man killed in a 2017 attack during New Year's celebration in a Istanbul nightclub claimed by the Islamic State militant group.

> After a judge dismissed the lawsuit, the San Francisco-based 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals allowed it to proceed, concluding that Twitter had refused to take "meaningful steps" to prevent Islamic State's use of the platform.

The 9th Circuit was way off. The judge dismissed the case, they revived it, and then got overturned by a unanimous Supreme Court decision.

If you research the way the SCOTUS operates, this kind of decision is pretty normal. The court usually tries to avoid making broad rulings, and tries hard to find a way to decline cases on procedural grounds. Lack of standing is the most reliable way to do it, but statute inapplicability is a runner-up.
Amazon isn't unique in this case. Your example is a bit of cherry picking. These tactics are common in retail (demonstrated by the fact that WMT, AMZ, and COST are the top 3 retailers in the world).

> access to capital at cheaper rates than most countries due to their position as a stock market darling

Last I recall, AMZ uses an internal WACC of 8-9%. That's really only marginally "cheaper" cost of capital than most other mega-cap firms, it's not really a big advantage.

Its cost of capital advantage mostly comes from its access to cheap short-term credit in its retail cash cycle, not the equity market (like you suggest).

> "reinvesting in the business" to bleed competitors dry. Few other companies on the planet have the ability to run negative or break-even margins the way Amazon does.

Costco regularly runs negative or break-even margins in its merchandising. Its language for this is "reinvesting in value" or "reinvesting in price". It can do this, similar to Amazon, because of their membership business.

Walmart also regularly runs break-evens/negative margins in select merchandising lines depending on geography and competition.
So isn't the reason that Mauricio Garcia is labelled as a white supremacist because he himself actually wrote and self-identified as one?

If the Oklahoma city bombers did not leave behind any jihadist or pro-Islam writing of any sort and only left behind their white supremacy stuff I don't think they would have been labelled as Muslim terrorists if they did their attack soon after 9/11. The media very likely would have done something more like "white supremacy as displayed by the Oklahoma City Bombing is similar to the jihadist doctrine displayed by Al-Qaeda". Which is to say the media would have made links between the two (some spurious, some genuine) without actually saying the Oklahoma City Bombing was done by Muslim terrorists. This is so obvious to me to the point that I am beginning to feel empathetic to commenters doubting your being genuine - as much as I hate to admit it since I think trusting others are arguing in good faith is generally a better norm.

Whether the 9/11 era or now when someone commits a crime and actually leaves behind writing where they admit their beliefs, and motivation this is what they get labelled as. Why are you surprised when someone like Mauricio Garcia who admits white supremacist beliefs is then labelled as one by the media? Or is your claim that actually his writing is not white supremacist?

Mounjaro is not yet approved for weight loss in the US even though there is strong evidence that it will be, and there's little question that there has generally been weight loss in those taking it for diabetes.

Recent studies have very clearly shown it's effective for weight loss even in those without diabetes, but there's a lag as the FDA reviews those studies. Until then, Lilly simply can't advertise it as a treatment for obesity.
And again, yesterday's middlemen were even more restrictive.

I slightly disagree, in that record labels had one great virtue despite their faults: they'd give promising artists an advance and help them network with producers, graphic artists and so on. Most musicians today need to invest a lot of time in being their own recording engineers and so on just to make out of the gate. The big labels were notoriously predatory, but smaller labels did and continue to provide a lot of value to artists.
You only have to start over if you're not going to have communal bathrooms and kitchens.

For the latter, many of these buildings do punch holes for restaurants closer to the ground floor.

The part we don't talk about in zoning and missing middle conversations is that the US eliminated the lowest income housing, which was temporary, single occupancy, with shared resources ie the Saloon, brothel, short term rent, and multi-tenant housing in the 70s.
This is pretty much aligned with my feelings as well. I think wgpu was by far the right call. Pretty much all general purpose engines have some form of generic "gpu device" api. wgpu solves that space quite nicely and in a more complete way than some of the other approaches in the space. It defines a default, relatively modern feature set that when targeted will work on pretty much anything. And it provides a capability detection / opt-in-feature API that allows us to expose and access other APIs we might need.

It helps us embrace Bevy's core "engine features look like app features" mentality: the APIs we use to implement renderer features are the same APIs that Bevy plugin developers use to implement renderer features.

> you deserve to be punished.

I don't like scumbags who commit those crimes any more than you do, but honestly, if we just want to be as f'd up as possible to them, then it starts to get pretty close to the "just do capital punishment" argument. If on the other hand we'd like them to reform themselves so we don't just have to keep them locked up forever or kill them, various forms of psychological torture run counter to those goals so we actually should care that they're not being subjected to cruelty.

If you look at prison as a whole, I don't think the needle is anywhere close to "so pleasant that people don't even want to stay out of it" so no, I don't think it's necessary to make every aspect of it worse just to spite them. It won't bring the victims back. And just having them locked up at all is sufficient to keep the rest of society safe.

You're missing the point GP made though. He wants to replace one good card with 4 worse ones. It's not like that rack has 3 or 7 additional slots just unused. They're also already taken by the setup. And in the link you provided 5 out of 6 offerings are still Nvidia GPUs.

Of course data centers are happy to oblige to customer demands, but initial cost per GPU and performance per watt are certainly not the only relevant factors.

There's a sort of uni-/light-kernel race quietly happening right now since the industry doesn't really fully trust process isolation within an OS for running completely untrusted code.

> I said it’s something even a corrupt country was able to do that is universally loved and accepted.

I still don't understand why this is a convincing argument. As an example, many countries with dictatorships have people that love and support the dictator (no matter how cruel they are). Dictators will also try to make this look universal.

This isn't a comment on the banking system (or even India), this is a comment on your argument. You're trying to convince others that a thing is good by connecting it with corruption. For me, this just doesn't follow.

I don’t fully buy into rehabilitative Justice. I’ve not read an account of how to handle one off crimes. Things like manslaughter or negligence. Crimes with extremely low rates of recidivism. Should people who commit these crimes be let off without consequence? If the point is character building, do you simply keep people imprisoned until their character improves.

Sure, multiple vendors sounds like a nice idea, but rarely in real life does the 2nd vendor's product just act as a drop-in replacement. You might have 2 launch platforms with SpaceX and Blue Origin, but the payload meant for one will not just be able to be launched from the other. If you want that, then NASA needs to design the plans (or pick one set of plans) and then have multiple contractors building the agreed upon thing

Very well then, I shall call the four values from φ lacklustre and uninspired; yet people have occasionally presented them as though they have objective value or virtue, which I deny. I say that if you possess the wherewithal to choose that value to compute your font-sizes from (which is far from trivial, and there’s no reason why you would think it’s any good unless someone told you it was and you believed them), you can choose four values that look good to you, possibly based on recommendations from others just like you surelyl did with φ, and get a result that is likely to be at least as good.

We’re comparing font-size values for headings, not anything more in the design. I didn’t say anything about pulling off excellent rhythm, space, dimensions or design, nor would I.
> Ubuntu PPAs maintained by the third party software vendor;

If it's proprietary closed binaries distributed over a PPA, I'd prefer run those in independent VMs (first trying the PPA on Debian - they're really just apt repos and can be added as suc), falling back to Ubuntu if its not worth resources fixing some particular one

> as for most complex software (i.e. not just a static binary), due to library package requirements, the base OS-image inside the container almost always ends up being Ubuntu.

I don't share this experience at all. The only situations I had where Ubuntu PPAs was the only nontrivial solution would be kernel drivers - precisely what does not go into containers.

> your answer is "I use containers", then that's just a regress — as for most complex software (i.e. not just a static binary), due to library package requirements, the base OS-image inside the container almost always ends up being Ubuntu

The reasons to move away from Ubuntu as base distro often don't apply to container images. Ubuntu images don't run any daemons like snap and are actually quite optimized for size (smaller than Debian, surprise surprise)

> So now you have to ask, how does the person creating the container-image switch to using Debian for that?

Compile outstanding libraries from source in the image build; injecting integrity-checked static assets as necessary.
Another upvote for debian as a great replacement for ubuntu. Base install is very lightweight and rock solid stable compare to ubuntu.
