As a user of Kiwi Browser I find this to be a reasonable approach, and I understand the needs here. I would, however, think that it would have been nice to have a warning for users that are installing one of these extensions along the lines of "This extension might be restricted on certain URLs. Click to learn more". I would find that helpful, paired with the ability to disable it.

This is just because when people install a third party ad blocker, they are expecting a certain type of behaviour, and quietly changing expectations can have bad results for users who require specific functionality.

On an unrelated note, I would appreciate adding a toggle to disable the "Pull to refresh" gesture on Android. I find myself reloading accidentally during scrolling very often, which can result in data loss.

The trivial reading of Turning Red as prostitution is thus: a thirteen year old girl suddenly struggles with transforming into a red panda, and this is quickly explained in such a way to heavily associate with the physical and mental changes a girl typically experiences with puberty. One of the next plot points is that, to make money, the girl decides to sell pictures of herself as the 'panda' to make money. This being contemporaneous with a popular website designed to make it easy for women to sell pictures for money.

Even later on, the movie concludes with this confident thirteen year old girl declaring that she has a right to twerk, all while she hopes to end up backstage with her friends at the local boy band concert. What typically happens to underage girls backstage at concerts? I wonder.

I did very little reading into the events the story presents to get to this conclusion. Turning Red is not very subtle at all. It shouts in your face about pads and how twerking is the bomb.

>Concerned parents from the 1950s, you mean?

To the extent that any parents today care about what their kids watch, instead of shrugging while letting their toddlers gormlessly stare at a youtube video pipeline of strangely pornographic spiderman and elsa videos, they typically care about explicit violence, references to sex, and references to drugs. Turning Red has very clear cut examples of two of these things. I cannot imagine most parents being comfortable about discussing pads with their five or six year old daughters, nor thinking that the world is a better place when those daughters decide they want to start twerking as well because they saw it in the movie.

Thanks for your reply. I would like to see social factors put to a similar rigor of analysis then, since it seems to me that you are proposing socialization is (1) a major factor and (2) that the socialization of women towards non-leadership roles is incorrect from a normative standpoint.

My counterpoint is that motherhood, pregnancy, chastity, fertility, these are tied up in the biologic of a woman, and these fulfill important roles that can’t be explained by social factors. We are not at the stage where we can replace women with mass artificial wombs and then no child has a “mother” they know and grow with. Rather we know from studies that a nurturing mother is incredibly important for a child at the epigenetic level all the way to the social level.

So much of a social role is devised around motherhood and so much of male mating and paternity is focused on not wanting the woman to have children who are not his.

This is why it is said polygamy is a natural choice for people, women are more likely to accept and be ok with having one husband even if he has multiple wives, compared to the inverse. From a biological paternity standpoint, this makes a lot of sense.

I also challenge your notion that scientific studies conducted in a research study fashion are the preferred criterion for evidence. A study without context and understanding is dangerous. And there are many truths we know without putting them to the now industrialized scientific process of producing studies —- many of which suffer political and ideological pressures in terms of what they can study when it comes to the relationship between human behavior and controversial social issues.

So when you say women are pushed into caregiver roles… this is obvious if you understand the concept of motherhood. As for a rise in women leaders of countries, I will say overwhelmingly the political and business class is male, and generally women are not suited for leadership of a country. We saw a rising “feminization” of society in terms of corporate interactions and corporate decorum now being a default in many respects for how society operates; there are also ideological reasons to elevate “women leaders”; all of these are reasons I suggest you see a rise in women leaders of countries. If you look at societies where ostensible crude military control and authority are important to display, or even in war situations, we see that men are by far the ones involved in combat.

A big question to ask, why so few women in the military roles then, if they have been open to women now? If you look at women’s physical performance it becomes obvious. We aren’t at the stage of all robot armies yet; and the militaries of today are still by far men.
My read is that this is a service to make it easy to setup and share databases. You might want to simplify your headline, as when I saw "multi-tenant database" I clicked expecting to see a database system that makes it easier to build multi-tenant application patterns. E.g. a system where each "customer" has it's own database, but all databases share either the entire schema or a common subset.
I don't think the USDS can take ownership unless you tried to claim eminent domain over the software. Not sure how that would work.
That "solution" is literally impossible for most office buildings where the core is structural and contains most of the building machinery. For those it's cheaper to demolish and rebuild.
Not really.

You can make a new protected bike lane by just throwing a bunch of jersey barriers on the side of a road. It costs (in relative transportation cost terms) almost nothing.

These sort of things would instantly make the roads dramatically safer.

The only reason this isn't done isn't due to cost, but due to political opposition to having any amount of road space removed from exclusive car use.

BTW. It's really obvious for a CJK user when the AA went wrong for whatever reason. Take an example, this issue: https://github.com/marticliment/ElevenClock/issues/241

I think you're missing GP's point (or possibly I am but I don't think so). They aren't saying they are buddies and so they wouldn't want to sue. They are saying "Red Hat pays a lot of people to work on this, possibly to the point where the project would be dead without them. They're not just packaging up somebody else's code and shipping it"

I adamantly agree with GP. There are important projects that wouldn't exist without Red Hat, or if they did they would pale in comparison to the proprietary solutions and wouldn't be seriously used. Qemu/KVM is a big one. Without Red Hat's investment, it would all be VMware and anyone wanting to (seriously)_virtualize on Linux would be using VMware.

This is really something better left for pharmaceutical giants given how much R&D would cost and the time to market. The amount of time to see a return on the investment makes it impractical for a startup. Weight-loss drugs are going to be incredibly lucrative but it took long term research into treating diabetes to make any practical progress. If we get a treatment for height it will likely come from a similar long term adjacent research.
Why do bug-for-bug with RHEL at all? Why not turn Alma and Rocky into stable distributions in their own right?

If this pushes RHEL into oblivion, why should anyone care?

The Debian ecosystem isn't centered on Ubuntu, it's centered on Debian. Comparisons between the two ecosystems are invalid because of this simple fact.

It would be nice to see the "Red Hat" ecosystem recenter around something which isn't a direct source release of a commercial product. Alma and Rocky should rebase on CentOS Stream for starters, and then try to get closer to Fedora as an upstream.

(BTW, I speak as someone who did corporate systems administration for years and understands the use case of replacing RHEL licenses with free CentOS installs perfectly.)
I'm not certain that much more effort is required.

Untraceable uploads with Onionshare over a Tor browser would conceal the origin of source RPMs that did not bear fingerprints.

Once captured, all that is really required is the updated SPEC file, and any modified sources or patches (if I remember my RPM internals correctly).

Alma could maintain such an Onionshare instance. If the SPEC and patch files are specifically GPL, I'm not sure that Alma could be compelled to forego them.
I think so. It's an anchor. It's always there, always the same. Even if things weren't perfect it's comforting in that there's nothing surprising there.

I live in a suburb in Oregon and our local convenience store, within easy walking distance, is a small market. Half dozen aisles, perhaps 2500sf of floor space. Yes they have some traditional 'convenience store' items like you describe -- mediocre hot food, fountain drinks, and snacks. They also have a decent selection of all the usual things you find at a larger market, just without the same variety of each item. Milk, eggs, meat, dry good, etc. Marked about 25-50% compared to the nearest large store, but for that I'd have to drive.

I sometimes get the impression that HN folks think there's only one kind of suburb in America.

> State serves a purposes, it's not just there for fun

The system has state. The question is how we want to manage it. The design in this case chooses to opimize to lessen the impact of errors. All real world systems are prone to errors in the long run.

If real world parables are excused: If the map (serialized state) and terrain (system state) differs, is it a good idea to insist on following the map?

> Ansible will lose track of your VM if you rename it

Sure, but so will Terraform. Or worse.

> won't delete it if you just delete it from the configuration

Sure it can. There are no limitations there. The only questions are whether you want it to, and how you want it to.

Ansible is a superset of Terraform. It's mostly a matter of culture which tool people choose, and which you think is the easiest to use.

I've rewritten this comment ten times already and I guess I don't really know what I _want_ to say, but this really irks me the wrong way. What you are describing is not Music (with a capital M) but rather the very similar product that is available in high abundance and nearly worthless. Real artists still have a considerable following that will absolutely anticipate and purchase physical media on launch day.

I'm sorry, that's the best I could do.
This is exciting. It adds to the tools creators have to remix songs. A middle ground between full AI and full human-made songs is a mix, like what Bronze AI has done with one of my favorite songs. (https://bronze.ai/listen/jai-paul/)

A less rosy scenario is like Spotify generating music to get around having to pay artists.
at what cost? and what is the governance model? The suit is more about the lack of governance with the free structure and not abiding by the law about establishing fees .

Here's one example from the article

Last year there were 22,435 lottery applicants for a permit to run the Middle Fork of the Salmon River in Idaho. Only 330 individuals received a permit. Yet, all applicants paid the $6 lottery fee -- even unsuccessful lottery applicants. Under Booz Allen’s arrangement with the federal government, it could pocket all lottery fees, which amounted to $134,610 just for the Middle Fork lottery

Even the same sedans are built with different engine options between North America and Europe.

Europe models will start with smaller engines that are just unavailable in US models.

No idea why given Europe has mountains too and 120 and 130km/h speed limits are the highway norm but often with shorter on-ramps.

Not only do you have a 4 lane residential road but there's no crosswalk for 400 yards in either direction and you think the problem is your ability to drive uninhibited is at risk. Not only that, but you think the worst part about your potentially hitting someone with your car is not serious injury or death, but that you might have to deal with it legally. Good fucking god, there's so much wrong here.
Fair enough, but I think that's even more evidence that `.local` doesn't actually mimic the filesystem root, but `/usr`
People in Europe have iPhones too, but their pedestrian death rate is plunging in compared to the USA. USA is an outlier and there's something else going on.

> I wish we could solve zoning and permitting and just build our cities up.

Lest people think that building up necessarily means skyscrapers, it doesn't. You can build a six-story building without any of the extreme engineering or exotic materials that skyscrapers require. Paris, Barcelona, and Amsterdam all manage high levels of density where the average resident will be living in a building of approximately six stories or less.

I don't believe in technical solutions for such things.

This is, first and foremost, a societal problem: low prestige of a language, discrimination of its speakers, economic hardships that force people to leave their communities, lingering effects of colonisation in language politics and so on.

While technology is certainly useful, it cannot fix the root of the problems.
According to what I can find on the Internet, there is 55M retail square feet in Manhattan for its 1.6M residents, so about 34 square feet per person.

Keep in mind that this figure doesn’t account for tourists, commuters, etc; but also keep in mind that over the last decade several large million+ square foot malls have opened in Manhattan itself (Hudson Yards, the Moniyhan station hall, the future Penn Station renovations, the Fulton transit center, the World Trade Center Oculus, etc.) The Hudson Yards one just lost its anchor tenant.
> Your interpretation is about the least likely.

The justices denied my first petition by denying its motion to file under seal. That was #18M57: https://www.supremecourt.gov/Search.aspx?FileName=/docket/do...

Some time after sending this petition I called to ask what was up. The clerk said he'd do something for me.

I didn't figure out the motion was denied until I called again, months later. They transferred me to the person I'd talked to before (who I'd later figure out was relatively high up the ladder at the clerks' office). He sounded very uncomfortable, and promised to send me another copy of the denial letter.

Later the Clerk of the Supreme Court refused to docket a paid petition for writ of habeas corpus, because it was 100% next-friend, and was not signed by my friend. I think the rules are clear that that type of petition was acceptable, but the clerk wouldn't docket it. I think that cost me $1400.

The Supreme Court Clerk "screwed up" & delayed my application for injunctive relief for a few weeks, by "mistakenly" sending it back to me. From https://www.supremecourt.gov/DocketPDF/22/22A181/237218/2022... -

I was using an add-on for Firefox where I could control to which sites a page could connect. Some years ago this was a pretty good way for browsing ad-free and without being tracked because both relied on resources from external domains.

Why do we need services like incogni?

Any ideas on this matter?
Then your judgement is wrong (source: I know what I believe): I do believe that Internet is great, mostly to share information and knowledge (not to watch TikTok or build more ChatGPT-based useless crap).

But then I do believe that most modern technology is bad: we went into this loop of building more crap on top of old crap because it is profitable, completely missing the actual problems we are facing as a species.

We don't need to send (rich) people to Mars, we need to save life on Earth. But engineers don't like this, because most of the fun and profitable projects today go in the wrong direction: they assume infinite growth, and no consequences.

But engineers seem to believe that if they don't work hard to help humanity destroy itself, then it means that they have to advocate going back to horses and no Internet. And in the meantime we are going (faster and faster) towards wars and famine - probably for us, quite certainly for our children.

Relatedly and further off-topic, I still love how the now often thrown around term "range anxiety" shows up in early literature too but it was originally reversed to how people brandish it about today: early EVs had a reliable range that you knew before you set out and could be charged just about anywhere. Internal combustion was rife with inefficiencies (fuel lossage among them) and available range wasn't always obvious and early fuel gages weren't always reliable and finding sources of fuel relied on lucking into the right sorts of pharmacists/chemists. One of the original reasons for the founding of the AAA (American Automobile Assocation) was "combatting range anxiety" by getting fuel to cars stopped on the side of a road.
