I absolutely feel I should be entitled to live in a society where the vast majority of the wealth isn't held by a small group of people and actively used to subvert democratic processes.

I feel entitled to enfranchisement, where the successes of the country are also my success, because I worked hard and paid my taxes.

I'll fight for my entitlement, and I'll fight for yours too.

But on a less philosophical level, motivated workers are productive workers. Enfranchised workers are motivated workers. Crushing workers' living standards isn't about productivity, it's about greed.
Because it's still HTML/CSS, just using Rust compiled to WASM instead of JS.
3-phase is not really for consumers. It’s for commercial and fleet operations where a 3-phase AC charging setup can deliver far more power with much lower amperage circuits. When installing chargers for an entire 15+ storey apartment building or making sure a fleet of 10+ vehicles can all charge overnight 3-phase suddenly makes life a lot easier and can reduce the cost of install significantly.
I never check it into github.

The Copilot IDE extension still tries to autocomplete it even when the file is added to the .gitignore file.
This is a complete mis-characterization of the EU and it's ability to make laws.

As a legislative body it certainly isn't perfect but you are ascribing motivations and making statements about it that have zero connection with reality.
You're obviously the expert here, but I was surprised that you found it notable very few databases have been released in the last three years. That seems like a very short timeframe. Per Wikipedia ClickHouse started as an experimental project in 2009 and was first released in 2016.

Glad to see gender therapy is doing fine for CIS males, I suppose.
Makes sense, it's for stuff nobody likes dealing with but everybody has to do.
It works. Every single athlete you have ever seen is on it. Any woman you see in a bodybuilding competition is on it (no a woman doesn’t have 2% bodyfat and 18 inch arms naturally). Every single celebrity is on it. No, Zac Efron doesn’t naturally have 20 inch arms.

It’s difficult to quantify risk because the people who die are always celebrity coke heads. They tend to die during binge sessions where they’ve slammed 5g of cocaine and had 12 shots.

Steroids increase BP so you need to manage that and you can’t be doing things like cocaine or drinking. The more you take, the worse your BP. That and the cocaine will be the killer.

I’m yet to see anything obviously harmful about testosterone. Some of the drugs that have branched off it have signs of harm but that might be due to increased strength or changed structure.

People are talking about your penis shrinking or whatever. Your testes do shrink but it’s not permanent. You need to make sure all traces of the drugs are out of your body before the system will start back up and that’s where people get stuck. Some drugs have metabolites that can last years. Testosterone isn’t the same but still takes time depending on the half life of the form.

Ironically women have the easiest time of it. Their hormone system doesn’t care about testosterone so they can go on and off whenever they want. The downside for women is the androgenisation. They start growing facial hair, deepening their voice and enlarging their clit. That’s a dealbreaker for most women for obvious reasons so a woman would need to be seriously committed to this.

For men, having a thicker beard and masculine features is a good thing so that’s fine. It will accelerate your rate of hair loss though.

It affects your personality. You are happier, braver, more focused and more aggressive. You feel like the leader of the pack no matter how pathetic you are. That confidence might be good or bad for you. You’ll be a lot more likely to approach women because you are continously aroused. You may be more of a cunt.

In summary, like all things it is a trade-off. You might die, but you’ll be the best you could ever be at physical sport. If you don’t care about sport then that’s not a great trade. Some people do drugs at weekends and kill themselves for parties. Lots of people make trades. This isn’t a casual trade to make, you need to think it through.
“ There are many exciting use cases for generative speech models, but because of the potential risks of misuse, we are not making the Voicebox model or code publicly available at this time. While we believe it is important to be open with the AI community and to share our research to advance the state of the art in AI, it’s also necessary to strike the right balance between openness with responsibility.”
That's one take. The other is much simpler: it has been communicated that investors will no longer bankroll Reddit and so now they will have to make ends meet, one way or another.
Usenet killfiles were only part of the solution, with the Usenet Cabal / The Lumber Cabal and Cancelmoose offering systemic and global control over abuse.

I've argued loudly since early on Google+ (2011s-ish) that personal content management tools are part of the solution but not a total solution. It is quite easy for a single person to be utterly overwhelmed by a concerted or prolonged attack, or by factors such as pervasive cultural discrimination or abuse. And communities as a whole require systemic defences.

That's a message I've taken to Mastodon and the Fediverse, where ... it does seem to largely be heard. Things are far from perfect there, but the ability for both individuals and instances to apply a range of content defences, from keyword or individual profile blocks (permanent or time-limited) to limiting or entirely blocking instances, is useful, and seems to be working pretty well at limiting the types of spam and abuse I've seen elswhere.

(There are occasional outbreaks, these to date have been quite limited and quickly addressed, at least on well-managed instances. And yes, there are poorly managed instances. Those tend to get defederated quickly and widely.)
Here’s one from Wikipedia:

In a 1994 interview with The Paris Review, Gottlieb described his need to "surrender" to a book. "The more you have surrendered," he said, "the more jarring its errors appear. I read a manuscript very quickly, the moment I get it. I usually won't use a pencil the first time through because I'm just reading for impressions. When I read the end, I'll call the writer and say, I think it's very fine (or whatever), but I think there are problems here and here. At that point I don't know why I think that—I just think it. Then I go back and read the manuscript again, more slowly, and I find and mark the places where I had negative reactions to try to figure out what's wrong. The second time through I think about solutions—maybe this needs expanding, maybe there's too much of
this so it's blurring
that."

What does this sentence mean?

>If your society isn't capable managing nuclear waste then nobody will care anymore anyway.
It's literally just a tank. It will be far cheaper than batteries, especially if you want real range.

Most of the arguments against hydrogen cars are just attempts to defend BEVs, not serious arguments against them. BEV advocates can't even acknowledge that millions of people live in apartments or condos, and will probably never have convenient access to charging systems. They pretty much require an alternative.
My resentment is not directed at the retail worker.

It's directed at at the system that enables this. If I don't tip, I'm being an asshole to the worker. If I do, I'm enabling the system that lets them get by with less on schedule wages. I hate it. I don't have a problem paying a service fee for table service, etc. (would much prefer it just be included, taxes too) but, yeah, I can't buy a pack of gum in the US without a screen asking me if I want to tip.
It's hyperbole. I'm dying to know whether you already understood that.

Sure, I can give estimates that don’t underestimate and account for eventualities. It’s just that my error bars are large enough that in that case I have to estimate several months for tasks that I believe should take a week.
The original URL for this was woeful, while it did link to your link above and via that to Geophysical Research Letters it still makes more sense to directly link to the actual primary source, either the ELI5 AGU press release or the actual paper in GRL.

HN has a technical audience that appreciates primary sources.
In 1995 the California State Police were disbanded and their role was given to the California Highway Patrol.

The part of the DMV that performs driver testing isn't the part that loses all your data. It wouldn't be impossible to disband their IT department and give the role to some other government agency.

They could also just, you know, stop collecting it. Print your height and hair color etc. on your driver's license and don't store it anywhere else. Instead store a hash of it at the DMV with the salt stored on the license itself, so you can revalidate the license without being able to reconstitute it.

I don’t live in a red state but I was raised in the most socially conservative area of Canada and I do have a number of religious and evangelical friends though I was raised atheist. Granted I do now live in the gayest neighbourhood in Canada.

The level of homophobia I witnessed and experienced in the nineties was on another order than what exists today, there is absolutely no comparison (I’m not gay but was routinely called a fag even by strangers because I was a skinny kid with long hair and had gay friends). In the nineties I would read conservative magazines that had ads in them pushing conspiracy theories about how the NAZI leadership were all gay. DOMA was a huge issue that ate up a lot of national politics in 2004, even California voted against gay marriage in a referendum. In 2012 Obama was still compelled to campaign in defense of DOMA and was openly supportive of marriage only between men and women (though interestingly the earliest activists for marriage equality came from the centre-right (Sullivan and Rauchman)).

Now the nuttiest MAGA republicans all love George Santos, who was a literally drag queening in Brazil and Peter Thiel who got a massive cheer when he keynoted the 2016 convention and said “I am proud to be gay. I am proud to be a Republican. But most of all I am proud to be an American.” Unthinkable even 4 years prior. One poll of gay men in 2020 shows 46% support for Trump. [0] On the more traditional Republican side of things (Dispatch conservatives and Reason Libertarians) it’s hard to find many living authors who are more valourized than Deirdre McClosky who has been trans for 30 years.

It’s possible that homophobia has increased a bit in the last few years amongst social conservatives, but it still isn’t close to anything like it was even a decade ago. So if it has increased, and if young people are reverting to viewing sex as a binary according to a recent Pew poll [1] the question is why. Partly it’s the weird corporate and state monomania around the topic. But more than that, as I stated above, it seems to me to be mixed with blowback to gender ideology which has been conflated with gay rights, even though it is a very different and contradictory thing with a whole separate host of questions around medical ethics and educating children that many don’t find to be consistent with the positive message that universalized gay rights - you’re fine the way you were born and you don’t need to change anything to be accepted.

Or the armed guard going Derek Chauvin on a student and killing them.
I think youre slightly underestimating the prevalence of fixed term loans. While 30 years is most common to the US and nordics there are lot in the 5-10 year range globally. I vaguely recall something like 30-50% of loans being this type of fixed range globally.

Can you explain more about why fixed terms are related to bank failures? IME very very few loans are held by the issuing bank. Almost all are resold, bundled & securitized, and then resold again as long term debt. Im missing why the bank would care that someone defaults later on. Its

I have a 2001 BMW 325ci. Upgraded with an aftermarket radio, now it has bluetooth.
YousefED, love Blocknote, but I ended up not using it for a new project, just because it's too prescriptive. Which I totally get is a positive for many. I.e they want the UI and controls built in and off the shelf. I would love to just use the Core API (block etc) and get some useful hooks, so I can extend it in my own ways
Assuming equal productivity for the first four days of the week overlooks the duration of the previous weekend’s rest interval.
It is always about reducing the number of steps, and the cost associated with such processes, in order to pass down to beneficiaries both movable (chattel) and immovable (real) assets. Dissolution of a trust is tricky, unless you've been through it yourself earlier. By adding beneficiaries to one's bank accounts/IRA accounts/retirement accounts, one just need to present a certified death certificate to the relevant financial institution to get those stocks/bonds/cash.

Even for homes, one doesn't need a will, nor a trust. Just make it "community property with a right of survivorship". What if both spouses die in some accident? A fix: joint tenancy with kids. Again, this creates a host of problems: what if a kid owes a lot of money to creditors? What if a kid files for bankruptcy? So, joint tenancy with kids is NOT recommended in such scenarios.
I'm not chaxor, but as far as I remember I think you're right:

If I had unzipped all the takeout directories into one giant folder, there'd be no conflicts.

Since I didn't do that, I had to do weird multi-pass parsing, since an album could be split across multiple ZIPs. I get a bit neurotic around backups like this, so I'd have loved some sort of virtualized filesystem that non-destructively represented all of those zips "merged together." But in retrospect, I should have just merged the directories into one folder---would have made parsing easier :)

I don't recall substantial problems with duplicates. Just weird renames and EXIF data mismatches. And since I was trying to archive my data, I definitely didn't want similar photos to be deduplicated.

My problems are probably different than chaxor's, though.
Medicine is very far behind recreational use ironically in terms of half lifes.

While we know all about esters, doctors think “lmao just give a 3 day half life every 14 days bro” which is why people like this end up screwed.

The worst is psych meds. They put people on monthly injections for anti-psychotics despite the fact that they clearly don’t last a month. Those patients then end up going insane for the last week of every month putting everyone at risk. Two week injections would solve it, but no. Monthly.

Medicine as a field just doesn’t seem to realise how much of a difference dosing interval makes. Whereas recreational users know because daily vs weekly is ridiculous obvious through side effects.
That would be a part of my assessment. What your response omits is the consideration of an IPO, what potential valuations might be achieved, and the fact that VC manage a portfolio of assets. The net risk of an (increasingly unlikely) large liquidity event, vs. a wash, still sees its upside in the big-pop IPO.

Which is to say: it really is rational for investors to pursue a course with a high probability of killing the goose, as the alternative is still little or no return.

The post-IPO Reddit would still be on its own, though it might be able to capitalise somewhat on the IPO itself for a time. That it will eventually have to make it on its own as a business does seem clear. And frankly, increasingly unlikely.
I’ve seen this suggested elsewhere but without content I don’t see this working out.
This is making a strong argument that the more highly classified a piece of information is, the more likely it is to be bullshit, because the fewer people who know the subject matter have had the opportunity to dispute it.

Naturally human nature is to think the opposite, that the most highly protected secrets have been carefully evaluated because they're so important, when the relationship is actually the inverse.

Maybe there should be a maximum period of time that any given information can remain classified, and maybe it should be short.
I did not rely on the webrtc implementation. Really you gotta do a lot of "echo server"-style shraing of messages and some sync messages from time to time but Yjs/CRDT stuff works pretty smoothly on this front.

But my requirements are pretty loose
There's vibrancy and controls in the title bar.. if it really is HTML/CSS like you say, then I'm impressed. I don't know what it's like to actually use the app, but at a first glance (and subsequent glances) I wouldn't be able to tell it apart from a native app written with, say, SwiftUI.
Not to be rude but this source code... makes me wonder if I ever want to use Zig. It looks barely readable

Work the system, or revolution, but don’t sit next to me and blame your laziness on disenfranchisement.

I’m a bit older, and if there is one thing I have learned over the years it is that no one is entitled to anything. Work in the system or work to change the system, but don’t sit and do nothing while kvetching about it.
If a woman can get testosterone because she feels like feeling like a man then men should be able to get their own hormones.

Women are allowed testosterone for menopause as well which is really bullshit. They can get it over the counter while a man faces deep scrutiny if his hormone levels have dropped with age.
Renting out bandwidth to the "competition" is not uncommon. It's not really competition when you're making money.

>this shouldn't even be possible since CORS should stop it, right...?

CORS is meaningless outside the controlled environment of a web browser. Besides, CORS is opt-in. Website operators can chose whether or not to share (it's in the name).
And in some ways, the average SE is still in the same realm as someone making a third of what they do. Many are still just one particularly bad string of unfortunate events away from financial ruin, and it’s not even necessarily their fault with how high CoL is in many places now.

In terms of planes of existence, most SEs live on a layer much closer to those inhabited by the average person than they are to the layer that big tech C-suites and the like exist on.
Keeping any group from achieving equality requires constant violence or the threat of violence. That is mostly what progressives seek to remove.
How terribly unproductive
Well, again it depends. I was just reading a few reviews on microglia before replying to your comment, in order to update my knowledge, and I would describe it as very light effort...I'd guess I didn't enter into the lactate territory. It's nothing like coming up with an algorithm or trying to solve a problem.

The only time I've found it has come close is when actually writing a hypothesis or review paper: having to read through the literature in order to come up with a coherent theory while juggling the concepts in my head. It's very similar to solving a programming problem, and does involve significant mental effort.

But it probably also depends on the speed that it's done at. For complex algorithms or prototypes I prefer to just power through and get the whole thing done to the prototype stage in half a day (or whatever it takes, depending on the complexity), then spend the next month (or whatever) fleshing it out. There are probably other ways of doing it that don't require such cognitive effort at the beginning, but I find that for complex problems that's sometimes the best way of solving them, at least in my experience, and it only involves significant mental effort for a very short period of time.
AWS uses TCP/IP internally. And DNS. And DHCP. And NTP. And ssh. And all those other standard TCP/IP or UDP/IP algorithms you may think of. Now, if you want to claim they have their own bespoke build system, then I'd agree with you there.

When I was studying for my BSCS, I worked at a University library, shelving books. I had two floors -- Deck 4 (Dewey Decimal) in the old stacks, and 4 West in the new building (LCA). I also occasionally shelved books anywhere else there was in the library that needed shelving. So, I know both of those systems pretty well.

Dewey Decimal is like Latin or Ancient Greek -- a dead language. Not really designed to handle modern inventions and newer technologies. It was a huge improvement for its day and it served us well in the past. But it didn't age well, and it didn't scale well.

The Library of Congress system is alive, like modern Italian or English. It addressed the major weaknesses of Dewey Decimal and although it has its own problems, it has continued to adjust and evolve as necessary. It also has scaling challenges, but at the really big sizes operated by the likes of the library of Congress or AWS, I find that everything has its scaling challenges.

For me, if I was running my own personal small library (which I probably could, given all the technical books I've bought over the years), I might be inclined to use the Dewey Decimal system. Or maybe the Library of Congress system. I'd have to test them both out and see which served my needs the best.

And that's what I'd suggest you do before you make any Herculean or Sisyphean statements. Try them both out. See what actually works for you. Then speak from your own personal experience as to what works for you and why.
My personal bet is specialised models have a niche. Do you think one of these could compete with GPT if e.g. trained on a law firm’s correspondence and contracts?
Endemic diseases are defined as diseases with relatively stable case numbers confined to a localized area. This obviously doesn't apply: COVID is not confined to a localized area.
