I think voters often WANT to hear strong ideological opinions that they think will never change on things they care about too, sometimes when it isn’t there.

Single issue voters can be weird like that.

The local pot enthusiast crowd that I know we’re furious year after year when it wasn’t legalized. They would note that some politicians said they supported it, but it wasn’t passed. They we’re upset ignoring the fact that legalization would never pass due to the balance of power in another branch of government.

They often feel like they’ve been betrayed or lied to if the outcome they want doesn’t happen.

I keep trying to use not-Gmail, but it still Just Works (my most recent serious foray was Evolution, but I've also tried Thunderbird, mu4e inside of Emacs, and a few other TUI ones).

Not having to worry about syncing, search being excellent, Gmail doing the right thing with linebreaks and word-wrapping and threading, Google Calendar integration, snoozing, the "add attached photo to Google Photos" button. It all works fine and is hard to give up.
Combined with the `yes` command is very good fun ;)
How is this measured? The concentrations seem so small. Are we sure the readings are accurate?
and then selling them at auction with 100,000 ... However, their real mileage was sometimes as much as four times the odometer readout

These numbers matter more here. The Cummins/Allison engine/drive-train in these vehicles are otherwise good for 1 million miles before rebuild on average until they are used as delivery trucks. The constant stopping and starting used as delivery trucks cuts that number down to around 480k miles. So they are selling vehicles that will require engine and transmission rebuilds in less than 80k miles. That's very shady. The engine rebuilds are usually around $10k same as a refurbished engine and the transmission rebuild is around $3k. That does not count the cost to install them.

No need for a framework or anything of the sort as far as I see it. Establish your scale in some manner which can be converted to a distance relative to the top of the page and position the elements absolutely to their proportional position. You can use this same scale against the scrollY attribute to know where you are relative to the top (in this case for rendering the depth).
Another good one is 'hidutil' which can remap any keys without additional software. It's handy for things like remapping CapsLock to anything, etc. For actual full keyboard layouts though I'd use Ukelele[0].

By the way, I had a chance to check: and I was right with my guess. All six of those languages evaluate 1.0/4 to 0.25, exactly as expected. It might have taken me 30 seconds or so to form my answer ;-) but that time was mostly spent parsing your question.

What languages don't evaluate 1.0/4 to 0.25? I checked OCaml (exception), node (0.25), Lua (0.25), Swift (0.25), sbcl (0.25), ... and then I got bored.

To me the expected behavior should be something like: for a binop between a float and an int, promote the int to float and do the floating point operation. Obviously there are corner cases here...

I think you missed the intent of the message you’re replying to. They are saying that when you use the Arduino ecosystem on the ESP32 you are missing features (whether that’s Arduino features that don’t work on the ESP32 or more likely ESP32 features that are not available through the Arduino toolchain).

Personally for the latter reason I think if you’re targeting the ESP32 you should skip the Arduino ecosystem and just write native code.

> Is the bottleneck for networked games the network of broadcasting updates? Or the CPU usage of updating object states?

Bit of both depending on precisely what's happening.

Ultimately the problem is that, for N "agents" (players or NPCs or active blocks or monsters, etc) in a space, if you're not careful you end up with O(N ^ 2) checks of the form "has X collided/interacted with Y". Octree systems can spread this out, but you're still vulnerable to "what if all the players go to the same spot?"

Instancing lets you back off the worst-case situation by limiting the maximum number of players in a particular spot.

Social housing doesn't have to be bad. It has a (justified) bad reputation because of the crime and antisocial behavior it brings along, which it can do because law enforcement has completely dropped the ball. Social housing can be fine as long as any antisocial behavior is properly addressed by criminal prosecution and evicting problematic tenants.

The problem is that isn't happening in practice, and property managers themselves can't do anything about it (dissuasive measures such as CCTV no longer work from my experience, as in my building people from the "affordable" area - or their friends - are happily vandalizing doors and stealing mail in full view of the CCTV).

Correctly using foundational AI models and instruct AI models
Correctly using generative AI models can be a challenge because it depends on the type of model that you are using...

At NLP Cloud we made 2 tutorials to help you make the most of your model:

- Using foundational models (GPT-3, GPT-J, GPT-NeoX, Falcon, Llama, MPT...) with few-shot learning: https://nlpcloud.com/effectively-using-gpt-j-gpt-neo-gpt-3-alternatives-few-shot-learning.html

- Using instruct models (ChatGPT, GPT-3 Instruct, GPT-4, Falcon Instruct, MPT Instruct...) with natural language instructions: https://nlpcloud.com/effectively-using-chatdolphin-the-chatgpt-alternative-with-simple-instructions.html

I hope it will be useful.

Isn’t that like saying that able-bodied people know just as much about being a wheelchair user because able-bodied people also spend time sitting?

The life of a teetotaler is not just your life minus the time you are drinking. Indeed, you explicitly make GP’s point when you say, “I never saw those wonders of the “never-drinking life” that I am supposed to be missing.”

Now, I would not argue that being a teetotaler is wonderful. I don’t drink because my father was an alcoholic. I feel like I have missed out of vast swaths of life. To me, the experience varies from fine to quite isolating and painful (especially when I was younger and conformity mattered more).

When I was younger, going to a bar and not drinking was like being a virgin late in life while everyone is talking about sex. Once you’ve had sex, you realize no one judges virgins. But as the virgin, you feel painfully alone. You know your friends’ awareness of your difference is harshing their mellow a bit.

But in the end, it is absurd to argue with people on the internet over who knows more about life. That’s a conversation better over a beer. I guess.

I don't know why that's laudable: if you die before you make it back, for most of these locations, that means whatever you've learned is lost as well, and someone has to take identical risk to learn it for humanity again.

Seems to be better to see the cracked pane, return to the surface with your lives, write a letter to your submarine enthusiast magazine group or whatever the equivalent of a web forum was back then noting that such and such glass installed in such and such way cracked at N depth, try a new method, and dive again.

It's almost impossible to detect an adulterant unless you know what adulterant you're looking for.

There are an awful lot of possible adulterants out there too.

Therefore, testing is a bit of a losing game. Instead, developed nations like the US require record keeping (ie. you need to keep a list of suppliers for each batch, and sometimes samples of each batch), and the court system allows someone to sue for a lot of money after the fact if a poisonous adulterant was found.

The risk of being sued is what keeps most food safe.

One of my biggest culture shocks in moving from Ireland to the Netherlands is around the usage of bars as social spaces.

At home I thought of bars primarily as a place to meet new people. I'd head down about once a week alone, with just my newspaper and a free afternoon, and generally end up chatting with someone about the news until we headed out for dinner together.

Even if I went out with friends I'd always expect to mix with another group or pick up someone who had been alone, then end the night partying further at the house of some strangers.

When I arrived in the NL I had assumed this was a universal thing, but quickly found myself being told off by strangers when I tried starting conversations, as they were "just out for a quiet drink."

This was very alien to me, though I quickly became accustomed to it and no longer go to bars except for drinks with colleagues after work, or when I'm in another city and visit the Irish pub for a sense of the old days that never quite materialises.

After a while I wondered if it was simply that I was getting older, but I recently visited home for the first time since before Covid. I went for a walk while visiting my mother and decided to stop for a quick Guinness while reading my book. I wasn't on the second page when a passing woman stopped to ask me what I was reading. I explained it was in Dutch and we had a whole conversation about her brother working in Amsterdam. I couldn't believe it! These experiences continued for the entire week.

I guess to bring it back to the article, the best bar in town is very culture dependant and can change drastically depending on what you're hoping to get from your visit there.

I don't think the problem is the assertion - even if the change of heart seems opportunistic - as much as the absence of acknowledgement of their own fallibility and their prior errors in world views.

Granted, such an acknowledgement involves some degree of humility, but I think this is preferable to not having opinions at all, especially about issues that matter.
For the how:

The lawsuit accuses FedEx of replacing the odometers in many of its vans with new ones that read zero miles, using the vans for a bit longer after that

Being born into a 5 digit odometer world and growing up around people who learned every way possible to suss out mileage - this seems nuts to me. How could they think that zero people would suspect and investigate an odometer swap?

Past that, how could so few company mechanics notice a discrepancy between mileage and wear - that no whistleblowers came forward?
The Kentucky version of this sort of bill - restricting state employees from working remotely (they used the term "telework") - was done solely to prevent any future COVID response.

> Another thing, 3 hours a day spent on walking alone seems like a waste of time to me. Walking is a terrible form of exercise, it's meant to save energy.

I don’t doubt that there are diminishing returns, but I don’t think it’s fair to say that “walking is a terrible form of exercise.” I was just reading _Built to Move_, and they contend that one hour of intense exercise followed by an otherwise sedentary lifestyle does not make you healthy. Walking might not be the best cardiovascular activity, but it is good for your hips, alignment, digestive tract, promotes healthy sleep schedule, etc.
OpenWRT also runs great on ARM. Even the Raspberry Pi can work well for home use.
It’s like eBay - clothes are listed and shipped by users.

If you did have to sort clothes from bags though you would probably just do it manually to start with, and if you had to scale up you would probably empty the bags onto a belt conveyor and then have people manually pick and sort into different containers, then put those containers through inspection phases or different disposition routes (ie only a small portion will contain clothing worthy of sale on an apparel site, some will be stained and need to go through a different sales channel, there will be bags of junk or bedsheets that need to be sent for shredding to become industrial rags etc)

This can largely be reduced to one of several motivations:

1. They mocker never liked the mockee anyway. This is just more fuel for the fire (eg [1]);

2. The mockee changed their position to one the mocker didn't like. In certain areas maybe that makes the mockee a grifter. That certainly does happen. More often than not, this simply comes down the mockee no longer being aligned with the mocker; or

3. If someone takes a genuinely principled position, many times they'll get mocked because (in the eyes of the mocker) they need to be dragged down back to their level because any form of principled action threatens to expose the mocker.

It's worth noting that people are particularly tribal or brand or team oriented. There's no critical thinking involved.

I'm not sure what specifically motivated pg to speak out here. I'd be curious to know. Chances are there's a specific motivation.

I disagree. Stay woke.
A close reading of the article leaves room to doubt whether FedEx was complicit in the alleged scheme. I’m not surprised to see that FedEx denies the allegations. Given that there is another defendant in the lawsuit I suspect there is more to this story than what’s been presented here.
I can only imagine this is the actual preference of two types of people:

1) Those who've never had a good martini made with high-quality, fresh vermouth, carefully chosen to complement the gin (or vodka, for that variant) being used.

2) Folks who've adopted the preference not due to genuinely preferring straight gin to an actually good martini, but because they've decided it's somehow more hard-core, classy, or old-school, due to Churchill et al. (I wouldn't say it's any of those, but to each their own—if anything, the Churchill thing reads to me more as an alcoholism joke than serious advice)

I would agree, however, that given a decent-or-better gin and cheap vermouth that was opened six months ago and has been sitting in the back of a cabinet since, I'd rather have the gin neat or over ice. Both primary ingredients need to be good to make a tasty martini—otherwise, sure, why bother, and yeah, the vast majority of bars probably don't go through enough good vermouth to justify stocking it at all (let alone multiple kinds to pair thoughtfully with various gins) so many places just can't make a good martini. I certainly wouldn't judge a bartender's skill at anything but a very-fancy bar based on how good a martini they make. It's not a drink with an acceptable cheap version, IMO—there's nothing for the cheapness to hide behind.
