I just teach people about global gitignores then they know. If someone were to commit something to an open source project, I'd reject it and teach them about it too. I'm all about the global gitignores. The ignore file can actually act as a form of documentation if kept tidy. It's a single source of truth of all the artifacts an app can produce.
I just tried emailing myself a few links and they all got automatically hyperlinked by Outlook on Android. Here are the links I tried

I agree about being able to hyperlink pretty much anything having the same effect, that's why I don't think the .zip TLD is a big issue

I think COP refers to Close of Play, since it is grouped with End of Day (EOD). I found some other alternatives, like COP could also mean Code of Practice--but I'm more familiar with Standard Operating Procedure (SOP).

A list of other COP meanings:

But that could just be a consequence of biases in the scientific process, right? After all phenomena that can be explained by simple/elegant theories are found, the remaining unexplained phenomena can only be explained by complicated/inelegant theories.
This is a great point about tag maintenance *if you have to make the tags yourself*. However, if you have a simple ML system that you can run to categorize your files and pull out good single word descriptors that have a large explained variance over your files, you can run this and check the tags that are constructed.

I think there's a good way forward that uses typical hierarchical Johnny.Decimal filesystems, with an overlay filesystem with tags that can update the tags every so often based on the content in the files. Obviously letting the user have a hand in this via a TUI/gui would be helpful for choosing tags for which they're comfortable.

Unfortunately I haven't settled on a good filesystem with tags (how to do this with ZFS?) or how to interact with it as a network filesystem served to many different OS (cifs with tags?).
Python is rather easy.

python3 -m venv bla; . bla/bin/activate; pip install -r requirements.txt; ./command

Of course badly written code is buggy and will require bug fixing because it only works on the machine of the developer. I'm not sure this isn't true in other languages. I've seen go CLI utilities that were dynamically linking Gnome libraries and could not start without installing Gnome.
Simpler websites often don't need a backend anymore (beyond automated, managed hosting). Many of them can just e a frontend package that can be deployed anywhere as static output files (CDN, any file host, Vercel, Netlify, Cloudflare Workers, S3, etc.)

In such a system, sending an email is traditionally a pain (well, email is always a pain, but even more so when you don't have a dedicated backend). Being able to fan that out to an API call (plus a template system already in your frontend's language) just means it's easier.

The API part handles the transactional email and deliverability and all that. The React part helps with the handcrafting of emails using a familiar layout composition language (React). But that part is entirely optional; it's a separate open-source project anyway and you can use the API without React at all if you so choose (or conversely, use the React email templates without Resend).
> In reality that data will sit there unreviewed in 99.9999% of cases.

I believe AI and LLMs will change that, unfortunately.
Which existing providers are you using on the backend for delivery? Mailgun, Sendgrid?

I ask because it takes a long time to build up trust reputation among the major email providers to help ensure deliverability.

macOS is a better comparison to Windows than iOS is, since iOS is just for iPhones and not desktops. macOS will show you the stack trace of a crashed app in a dialog. This allows more technical people a chance look into the reason for the crash. Users have the option to share the stack trace with Apple.
The exactness matters, though. Unless you'd like things like encryption to stop working.

Stop comparing January 6th with BLM. They're not even close to equivalent situations, in fact, they're complete opposites. BLM = Agent of the government murdered a citizen in the streets, citizens got angry. J6 = The highest agent of the government encouraged a mob of citizens to physically attack their political opponents.

There were tens of thousands of arrest during BLM. The national guard were sent in. Undercover agents of the government were throwing people into unmarked vehicles. The people at J6 walked home with love and well wishes from the standing president of The United States government. However, they were dumb enough to bring tracking devices and fully document themselves committing treason. That doesn't point to some deep state agenda, it's just plain idiocy.
As this thread currently has a lot of critics, I just want to put in a personal plug for JD. I've been using it for some time now for family and personal data and it has been enormously helpful. It's true that it is occasionally vexing to have to choose one category for a given thing, but (a) it's usually not, (b) it's ok to reorganize categories, (c) I have found that often if there's something important that fits equally well in more than one category, (c1) either I need to refactor my categories, or (c2) it's probably going to be ok if I just pick one and allow myself to recategorize later. This almost never happens anyway.

And in the mean time, all my stuff is searchable, browsable, findable, and tidy.

I'm not saying it will work equally well in all environments or for all purposes, but for mine, it solved many years' worth of stress.

> The SEC and its staff have taken the position that certain crypto assets fall within the definition of a “security” under the U.S. federal securities laws. The legal test for determining whether any given crypto asset is a security is a highly complex, fact-driven analysis that evolves over time, and the outcome is difficult to predict. The SEC generally does not provide advance guidance or confirmation on the status of any particular crypto asset as a security.

You're correct. The housing market is transparent, but it's mostly inelastic. Which is actually a more important point: the free market doesn't even work in theory in inelastic markets. Oh well. I guess the beatings will continue until morale improves.

What you need is a freight forwarder. You may not get a particularly good rate or exceptional service for a one time job like this. If you've got any acquaintances that import or export things I would ask them to recommend you a forwarder.

In order to give you a quote they will need the weight and dimensions of what you are shipping, the pickup and delivery address, a packing list, and a commercial invoice stating what each item is and what it's worth. You've also got to think about how you will load everything. Your options are lifting by hand, using a forklift, or you'll need a truck that has a tail-lift. If you've got all this information beforehand it will make things easier.

If you're putting thing's in a crate like another poster suggests then you'll have to make sure the crate is heat-treated and has the appropriate stamp on it.

We just shipped something at work from the UK to the West Coast of the USA (sea-freight) and it cost about US$1700. It was a crate of about 1 cubic meter and weight about 350kg. This was door-to-port not door-to-door though.

I think you're reacting to things the paper doesn't say - they never claim any new physics. EFT is a simpler model than what you'd derive from QCD and it makes sense it'll be wrong in some limits. The paper finds such a limit. That's all? The paper title and abstract seem to be pretty accurate? Or are you objecting to the characterization of EFT as "theory"?

If so, then how about planet formation theory, or solid state physics? Are those also not theories, because they're ultimately just limits of the standard model?
The use of "just" here is classic underestimation of complexity or investment required. Technologists everywhere face this negative language from customers and other laypeople, and I expect many readers understand from first hand experience how insulting it feels. Please don't "share" that negativity with other creative arts.
> It can be seen as a transgression because you're knowingly choosing words that will cause someone distress.

Who? On internet forums, there is only you. Any words you write are done so to stroke your own thought processes. There is no expectation of anyone else being on the line. In fact, most comments you write will never be read by anyone. And even when something does reply, there is no belief that it must be human. It could just as easily be a GPT model, and that's fine. It wouldn't change the experience.

Again, forum usage is solitary activity. If there are other humans involved behind the scenes to make the software work, that is merely an implementation detail that is not of concern to the user. Any care for the words you choose is only for your own benefit, and as it pertains to the discussion, most likely because you don't want to accept some truth about yourself.
I think JD main value resides in the restrictions it suggests. They will work for some people, for others they will not, and others like me will adopt JD in an informal way. For example my most used folders, loosely corresponding to main areas of focus have unique numeric prefixes, but inside them the folders do not follow the numeric prefix approach. What I appreciate is having the same numeric prefix in all the applications I happen to use, like GMail labels, task manager projects, Evernote notebooks, and file systems.

The problem being that many of our big corporations and institutions are much like an Imperial Army, but without the culture of seppuku. They have overrun considerable territory and established the Greater Welfare Zone, including its glacis and satellites, by adhering to concise, even gruel tactics. This works. This is how it works. If we just stick to the tactics and principles, this will continue to work. This is how we do things… Admitting fault and accepting shame, just to veer off proven and established procedures, isn't only a serious danger to your career, it also endangers the greater good, we've all committed to… There's too much at stake.

I don't get why the arguments are confined to string theory. The standard model plus general relativity are so good that any theory that resolves the conflict is necessarily only testable when you've got a stellar mass black hole in your lab.

That could be a call to stop bothering with exploring the domain entirely as infeasible. But I don't understand why string theory gets singled out for finger waggling when any other theory must run into the same problem.

Python sits on the C-glue segment of programming languages (where Perl, PHP, Ruby and Node are also notable members). Being a glue language means having APIs to a lot of external toolchains written in not only C/C++ but many other compiled languages, APIs and system resources. Conda, virtualenv, etc. are godsend modules for making it all work, or even better, to freeze things once they all work, without resourcing to Docker, VMs or shell scripts. It's meant for application and DevOps people who need to slap together, ie, ML, Numpy, Elasticsearch, AWS APIs and REST endpoints and Get $hit Done.

It's annoying to see them "glueys" compared to the binary compiled segment where the heavy lifting is done. Python and others exist to latch on and assimilate. Resistance is futile:

I feel like your comment qualifies as ideological warfare, which is against the guidelines. How could a claim like, "conservatives don't actually care about children" not be. So if a moderator saw your comment, he ought to reprimand you.

What gets me, though, is some of the factually false claims you make here, and it would seem fair to dispute them. For example:

> puberty blockers which are not permanent

That's not true. Such chemicals have lasting effects on the body, and are the same chemicals used to chemically castrate sex offenders.

> I couldn't find any story about a person younger than 17 getting a surgery done.

Such stories are readily available. And if you, for example, watch the documentary, "What is a woman?", which was recently seen by millions of people on Twitter, you'll find interviews with doctors who have conducted voluntary mastectomies and phalloplasties on children younger than 17.

> Also, no child is getting this without parental or guardian's consent. The idea that some liberal parent is twiddling their fingers, Mr. Burn's style, to get their child to believe they are trans is ludicrous. You have to believe there's a large group of parents who are cartoon villains attacking their own kids for clout.

In the same documentary, a man from Canada is interviewed. His daughter went to a hospital and the hospital informed him that his daughter would be given testosterone injections against his wishes. When he filed a lawsuit, a judge jailed him for referring to his daughter as "she." He is now out on bail, unable to legally leave the province he resides in, and his daughter is receiving the injections anyway.

So, given how much effort you put into your comment, I hope you will be fair-minded enough to do some more research, find out what you're factually wrong about, and then reconsider your positions. Otherwise, it's just more ideological warfare, unconcerned with the truth.

No, but the idea of a totality of physics is: that there's nothing outside it that we don't understand. That's very anthropocentric. And heard in the dismissals people give of possibilities or observations that "violate a law of physics".

There are some pretty weird stuff out there outside the average UAP cannon — of metallic orbs, cigars and clamshells — that may qualify as your intrusions; good word!

Science lives at the edge of the unknown. In this era I think we need to engage in far-out speculation if we're going to understand what comes — especially if we hope to understand it from a non-anthropocentric point of view! Ha ha ha! :)
