Are they equivalent though? If all companies that are "neutral" eventually become corrupted by subversive influence, then the only immunization is to be actively opposed to it. Which "side" as aggressively pushing their BS on you, and which one is being open about its motivations and building new things rather than attempting to corrupt existing things? These two "sides" are not the same. It's politically expedient to claim to be aloof, or beyond the partisan bickering, but more and more people are coming to the conclusion that there's no ability to avoid the conflict.

While writing this comment the article story got flagged. Who is trying to make sure you can't see stories like this? Eventually a "side" must be taken because one of those sides is determined to not allow you to decide for yourself.
Using awkward units of measurement that have little compatibility results in a multiplication of even more awkward units.

If you don't have a good, easy way to convert between acres and square feet, you instead need to imagine some unit custom built for the application. So rainfall is typically measured in inches, crop areas in acres, simple we will just invent an acre-foot and now people can convert their rainfall needs into water amounts. Maybe.

There's probably a lesson for system design here.
One would think, but scarcity keeps the value high, and places with water rights are seen as a great investment.

Ah, I wasn't aware it was the name of a common code golf challenge, I do code golfing myself but apparently not enough :)

I guess it makes sense people would frame the game that way, arbitrary bit flips seems way too hard, I'm not even sure it's possible for a program to cope on it's own.
Hmm, as an engineer good toys are huge. It shows respect for my time to buy good equipment. Is it calling them toys you object to? I guess I also phrase things as "let's play with this..." So toys seems a good colloquial way of referring to things.

I found that cases where I need multiple windows at the same time are actually quite rare in my work. Turned out seeing only the window I work with right now is actually what I needed 90% of the time, so this default behavior is a win.

For the remaining 10%, SM makes it easy to combine windows into a set (this is so far the only instance where I use the new “recent applications” widget, I set it to auto-hide so it never distracts me otherwise). Then with cmd+` you can switch between windows in the same set (even if they are of different apps). You can also tile windows in your set with something like Rectangle, etc.—just make sure not to over-craft sets, they are ephemeral after all.

The ephemeral nature of window sets used to bother me initially—I wanted to persist them across restarts—but after I realized I really focus on one window 90% of the time, and creating ad-hoc window sets is very quick, I no longer find it an issue.

Your allocation macro can lead to heap underflows if the multiplication wraps around. Which can definitely be exploitable.

You should either add overflow checking to the macro or even better just use the damn libc api and call calloc. Or if you really insist on avoiding zeroing overhead, there's reallocarray(NULL, ...) if you use a reasonably modern libc.

"Volume that can flood a defined area A to depth B" isn't a totally unreasonable way to measure large volumes of liquids that are replenished by falling from the sky over an area.

Of course it's a bit odd because it uses acres and feet for the area and depth, instead of reasonable units like meters, but those are just the usual strange units.

> and maybe that appeals to far-right nuts and Trump's hardcore MAGA followers, but, as the midterms have shown, not so much to the more moderate Republican voters, which are still the majority...

The thing is, most Republican (and also most Democrat) voters will vote for whomever has the R or D next to their name. All that matters is who wins the primary - and there, the far-right has the clear advantage, with Trump polling at 50% and DeSantis at 20% [1].

It's no longer about "who makes better politics", it's "doing anything just to not let the other side win". Honestly a wonder that the debt ceiling got raised.

Render to start billing free accounts without any opt in
I got this email from Render which states that my account which was on their free tier is now going to start getting billed without any opt in.

See email text below.

Hi there,

We're letting you know about upcoming changes to your Render bill. As mentioned in our December 2022 pricing announcement over email, single-user teams created before January 2023 received a 6-month grace period during which they did not have to pay $19 per user per month.

This grace period ends on June 30, 2023. Starting July 1, active Render teams will be charged $19 per user per month in addition to compute costs.

The Team plan offers access to advanced features like autoscaling, preview environments, and PostgreSQL point-in-time recovery. Developers on the Team plan also receive 500 GB of free bandwidth and access to email and chat support.

Your team <REDACTED> Team contains services and will be charged $19 per user per month starting July 2023.

If you wish to continue running your services on your team, no action is needed.

However, if you do not need the additional features in the Team plan, you can recreate your services in your individual account before June 30, 2023 and avoid the monthly fee by deleting your team. As a reminder, teams that do not have any services (active or suspended) for the entire month will not be charged a per-user fee.

We're here to help. Please reply to this email if you'd like assistance or have questions.

Best,

The Render Team

There are a lot of technologies that will harvest water from the atmosphere:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmospheric_water_generator

On average, the excess energy in the atmosphere from global warming will suspend too much water vapor in the sky, creating second order problems. The amount of suspended water will be more than enough for household usage.

I have no idea if averaging too much atmospheric water globally does anything to help Arizona though.
The problem is there are only flamethrowers now and no lighters.
JavaScript is a weird one. To count UTF-16 bytes you write:

" ".length

For unicode character count you write:

[..." "].length

And for grapheme count (or language aware word/sentence count) you write:

[...new Intl.Segmenter('en-US', { granularity: "grapheme" }).segment(" ")].length

For word/sentence count you swap out the granularity option.

Your second paragraph is really interesting and I feel like there are several misunderstandings derived from a flat american left-right political understanding that doesn't really map.

The first is when you say "left wing" you probably mean something more like liberal democrats, which are not meaningfully leftist in a global context and not as far left as the american right is far right. Something like the black panther party or sandinistas is left wing, and more or less necessarily incompatible with the sort of engaged business-centric capitalism you're expecting. You can have a thin blue line bank but not a redistributionist one you see what I'm saying? To the extent something like that exists it is just left-themed, which definitely do already exist, and will eventually collapse under its commitment to capitalism and become functionally like any other agency in its domain.

The second is that it's probably not true that the left is more ideological than the right. Both groups will believe this about the other probably, and I certainly have my opinion. But for example undermining a high-value public good merely to deny access to an opposed group is a classic right-wing tactic that is deeply ideologically motivated.

The right's ideology especially around economics & money tends to be a lot closer to the mainstream of american culture. This is a distinct advantage in business! Again, a thin blue line bank has no ideological inconsistency and may thrive in the right environment.
I'm using Papermill to operationalize Notebooks (https://github.com/nteract/papermill), it e.g. also has airflow support.

I'm not sold on the direct compensation from platforms to journalists just because as a mechanism it seems murky but the underlying rationale is I think correct. I'd prefer tech companies just get taxed much more aggressively and local news can draw and apply for public funds in some transparent way.

But journalistic institutions have important functions. To pick a fairly modern example look at John Carreyrou at the WSJ blowing wide open the Theranos scandal despite the fact that Rupert Murdoch had significant financial stake in the company and owns the newspaper. There is a level of investment into investigative journalism and integrity and firewalls there that you do not have at social media companies. Most of them don't care at all, and if they pretend to you get the 'Twitter Files'.

Well let's not pretend that there weren't all sorts of politics already embedded deeply into these corporations.

In particular, banks make extremely political decisions in how they evaluate risk of loans and who they choose to loan money to and on what terms. Which is one of the reasons that the fall of SVB will have such long lasting implications for startups! Good luck getting the traditional banks to understand your startup enough to loan you something now.

> For MBAs, schools probably carry out-sized weight for new grads in some specific areas like management consulting and investment banking

I've seen a huge variance in MBA-graduate quality between schools, to the point that if you're not graduating from one of the top schools I question the value of not only the degree but the candidate for failing to see that. As for undergraduates, the value the top schools deliver is consistency more than quality--you're unlikely to be horribly embarrassed by the Stanford or Georgia Tech grade in a way you are one out of ASU.

They were at some point but they're better than NVidia now for normal desktop etc use at least on Linux. They went open source and upstreamed the drivers, like Intel.

On the GPGPU stack front it may be different but CUDA is also really low level and abstracted away by ML stacks. And some of them also had OpenCL / SYCL backends at one point, I wonder what's the story there.
I use CMD+TAB prodigiously, but only to switch to the previously open thing or the second-previously open thing. If I'm looking for a certain window I use the three-finger-swipe-up, or, if using the mouse, it has a few extra programmable buttons and one of them is programmed to do that.

It feels like CMD+TAB was designed to be used for this purpose and not for the more general ersatz 'open an application I know is currently running' mode.

But, hey, if you _do_ use it for that, this Witch window switcher seems like a great idea. More power to you!
I think people misunderstand what evidence based medicine is[0]. There are many types of evidence ranging from lab studies and expert opinion at the bottom to systematic reviews/meta-analyses at the top.

The point being that we should strive for RCTs when possible, and that RCTs carry more weight than expert opinion or case-control. Many (I don’t have an exact number) clinical practice guidelines are based on expert opinion or observational studies, and are completely valid/evidence-based (it’s just weak evidence).

The point of EBM is not “RCT or bust” it’s really more about the hierarchy, that medicine should not practice in defiance of quality evidence and that we should strive to obtain the highest quality evidence possible.

A few things for me:

- A search and rescue team. Not only do I get exercise, fresh air, and the good feels of helping someone on their worst day, I also build very strong bonds with people I'd never have met otherwise.

- Tabletop RPG's. I've joined a few groups and while not all have worked out, a couple have really stuck and we've become great friends. It's also a great excuse to sit around a table without digital distraction and really enjoy one another's company.

- Finally, Burning Man. The burner community has been a godsend for me. Always interesting and engaging, sometimes sarcastic and snarky, never a dull moment.
Also mobile robots, various industrial controllers, home media centres I guess?
Had the same initial reaction. Had to tweak settings a bit (e.g., set recent apps to auto-hide) and create a mental model of window sets before it clicked.

My mental model of window sets:

— A window always belongs to one set, with two exceptions: 1) global ephemeral windows like “About This Mac” (they appear in all sets on current desktop) and 2) windows assigned to all desktops via Dock (they appear in all sets and on all desktops).

— You are always “in” a set, even if it’s a 1-set with only this window alone, and you don’t see any windows not in the current set (other than the exceptions above). You can only glimpse other windows via Recent applications, Mission Control, and so on.

Managing window sets:

— Creating a window always drops you into a fresh set with that window alone. While jarring at first, it’s key to me—with a new window I start doing something different and don’t need the distracting baggage of whatever was on screen before that. Can always add windows later (see below).

— Any way that focuses a window now also drops you into its entire window set. This includes: Mission Control (which like before operates individual windows, not sets), ⌘+tab, clicking on app’s Dock icon, window switch from within the app, and so on.

— If you switch to another window set while dragging a window, that window becomes part of the set when you release the drag.

— To remove a window from a multi-window set (creating a new set with only that window alone), long-press the maximize window button and click “Remove Window from Set”.

Recent apps:

— “Recent applications” shows two kinds of things: 1) multi-window sets you created (last focused window on top), and 2) solo window sets grouped by application.

— Recent applications list is scoped to windows on current desktop and excludes the window set you are currently working in.

— You can interact with Recent apps in three ways: 1) click on a set to switch to it, focusing topmost window; 2) click on any app’s icon to show up to 18 recently used window sets with any of that app’s windows; 3) drag the topmost window from any visible set into current set.

— I set it to auto-hide, I only need it when I need to add another window to the current set.

By the way, ⌘+` now works in two ways: 1) if you are in a set of multiple windows, it will switch between windows in the set (regardless of the app); 2) if you are viewing a solo window, it switches between other solo windows of the app (close to old behavior).

This all might sound complex but a couple hours in it works quite intuitively, I find.

Communities used to be on specialised forums and blogs. I've watched my favourite specialised blogs turn off comments because of bot spam, and I've watched forums raise the sign up bar and browsing restrictions for similar reasons. Reddit's anti-spam measures plus moderation makes it a much more decent experience.
