Can I use CCC to backup to something like an AWS bucket of Backblaze B2 if I don't have a NAS in my house?
The pixel 4 reached EOL earlier this year, you should upgrade.
No, they don't. They prove the exact opposite.
Speaking as a potential original body, screw that - I'm not setting foot in a teleporter. But if other people want to try it, that's interesting too. Of course, it's hardly a new problem/paradox; if you haven't seen Christopher Nolan's "The Prestige", it's worth a watch and this is a plot point. And obviously the thought experiment goes back much farther. I'd hardly be surprised if some Greek dudes were arguing about it before the birth of Christ.
Its not just tech, its also the push for better gas mileage that caused a switch from metal to plastic parts, among of weight reduction for reliability trade offs.
Glad it shone through even with the edits.

GCC Steering Committee Announces a Code of Conduct
Peterson is a perfect example of how being reasonable doesn't work. His ideology/commentary had nowhere near the delusion and woe-is-me gnashing of teeth that Tate's grift revolves around, it is nowhere near as destructive to its target audience and society, and it caught the dude so much shit that he basically self-destructed. There was a $35 million film made where the villain was based on him, with the director having this to say:

"We based that character on this insane man, Jordan Peterson, who is this pseudo-intellectual hero to the incel community. You know the incels? They’re basically disenfranchised, mostly white men, who believe they are entitled to sex from women. And they believe that society has now robbed them—that the idea of feminism is working against nature, and that we must be put back into the correct place. Yeah, they’re actually succeeding in many different ways. But this guy Jordan Peterson is someone that legitimizes certain aspects of their movement because he’s a former professor, he’s an author, he wears a suit, so they feel like this is a real philosophy that should be taken seriously."

If you're integrated into the modern US corporate society and media landscape, and think that some portion of Peterson's outlook is potentially helpful, keep that shit to yourself. That you will even humor his ideas is grounds for people with brain worms to attack your moral character. If it starts to make noise, your employer may not want to deal with it. Your friends and family may not want to deal with it. Mum's the word; you are only going to hurt yourself.

I would say that one of the few people in this specific media market that stands any chance of telling people that are looking to Tate and Peterson for advice something that may actually help them is Sam Hyde. Outside of his inflammatory comedy, his commentary on how to deal with being lost is hard to hear for somebody that's there, but ultimately as close as some talking head on the internet will ever get to helping somebody like that. He has pretty much completely checked out of "normal" society, so lost people looking integrate with "normal" society aren't going to find him. They'll find Tate instead, who has a relatively easy "answer" and is trying as hard as he can to change the world to fit it. Reasonable people commentating on this are doomed to fail in the current environment.
Their children feel bad about themselves because they can't accept who their fathers were.

I get the moral point you're trying to make. But otherwise this statement simply is not factually tenable.

Granted, some children who don't "accept who their fathers were" fall into the borderline spectrum that you're referring to. Or are needlessly resentful of their parents due to simple human failings, such as a single lapse of judgement at some key moment. Of course.

But a very significant portion have perfectly valid reasons for "not accepting who their fathers were". And it would be psychologically unhealthy for them to try to force themselves to do so.

Any more than any other victim of violent (or comparable) crime needs to "accept their attacker for who they were". Or force themselves to "understand" their attacker's motives. Let alone forgive them for anything.
I don't see any reference to why this research was being done. The mosquito and pesticide studies seem likely to be DoD/CIA related since they fit neatly in the pattern of other unethical testing we know they were doing. The named researchers were also mentored by someone who did dioxin (Agent Orange) and drug experiments on prisoners for the DoD.
I have experience with Neo4j as a consumer of the database, but as part of a project where someone else wrote the queries.

I hate it. It's extremely expensive. It's slow. Very slow. It only recently had multiple databases per instance. It doesn't support per database encryption. Did I mention it's slow?

We also looked at the ongdb effort, but that went offline all of the sudden due to licensing issues. Now it's back but they reset (?) the version number. Confusing. Also, that one is built in version 3-ish. So no multi-db. While you can spin up multiple instance (it's free?, it's still Java, i.e. slow and eats memory.

did you not read the article before commenting? the instructions for silencing the freezer alarm was attached to the freezer...

I also find it hard to assign any blame to the alarm designer. If there was a way to permanently silence the alarm, that was specifically added to prevent unnoticed loss of temperature. That would be a much worse design. Accounting for human nature.
There was a local news story which i can't find a link to about the Vale TN station; the story I heard (from an AT&T guy, fwiw) was that they concluded the ISDN service to it earlier this year because fiber was coming available; but that doesn't light up for another few months yet.

Checking https://www.weather.gov/nwr/outages suggests its up again; I heard this weeks ago, so apparently some resolution was found.

Neat fact: that area is served by one of the few local telephone companies never to have been owned by AT&T at all; they still have round can rotary relay boxes on telephone poles out that way. NFI what actual service they have.
Imo, to apologize for something that you didn't actually do is an empty, and quite frankly offensive gesture. It is blatant pandering.

I've never been experimented on against my will, but if I was, and 60 years later some kid fresh out of college decided to "apologize" for the brutality that other people carried out against me... uh, can you be any more tone deaf?
I have probably been using IRC longer than you’ve been alive.
Yes it silenced the alarm for a few minutes, just long enough to make you notice when it starts back up.

I’m fairly confident momentary silence is part of the aforementioned torture technique. Did you not think about the article when you read it?
Biological sex is a pretty clear and straightforward concept if you don't happen to be girded up for ideological battle around it. The idea that clear semantic categories somehow lose validity if they're fuzzy at the edges is unique to the gender wars; no one seems to find it problematic to talk about sandwiches, or childhood, or the fruit/vegetable binary, all of which are way muddier categories than sex.
The article is talking about colorectal cancer and bladder cancer, y chromosome owners can get those cancers too whether or not they have female phenotype or not.
I’m on board with tailoring upbringing to the kid’s gender and being conscious of how society sometimes treats young men in a negative way.

But I second that is a weird take or point to throw in.

I should clarify that when I say it's a fundamental part of the architecture, I don't mean in the sense that it becomes unsafe or nonfunctional in the absence of one. Rather, I mean that it's a fundamental communication mode you have to consider when engineering a vehicle, just like cellular internet is a fundamental consideration for mobile OS architecture despite the existence of airplane mode. Hardware is selected in part to support the feature, storage is chosen to support log retention goals assuming periodic offloading, etc.

Whether it's unsafe, or a potential security vector, or has any number of other undesirable properties will depend on the specifics. Every vehicle is a highly heterogeneous distributed system, so the systems I've had a hand in designing may look very different than a different platform within the same company, let alone a different manufacturer.

But yes, every vehicle should remain safe without a network connection and privacy should be not only available, but the default.
Thanks for the reply, I get where you're coming from. I think I mostly just wanted to bring up the implicit assumptions that are made about the problems a certain group can have.

I suppose a lot of these issues come down to these subtler problems - Men have fewer problems in some senses (physical capability, professional respect, etc) but more in others (generally emotional and relationships), wheas for women it's often the reverse. These sorts of implicit assumptions that exist on a cultural level can be difficult for people of the opposite gender to see or understand.

My knee-jerk sense of fair play has me wondering how/why Fox News license holders are not at risk of losing theirs, given the self-acknowledged mendacity of some of its on-air personalities. To me, that goes directly to 'character qualifications', but perhaps cable TV network owners do not face the same standards as their broadcast radio station colleagues.
Another cheap networked Time Machine solution is a used Intel Mac Mini (~$120 for 2.5 Ghz Intel i5, 8 GB Ram, 256 GB SSD), and set it up to export your time machine disks over the network. Not only is it "real" Time Machine, it allows you to add to an existing Time Machine disk that used to be plugged into your machine. No need to learn anything new.

...and was not defined by the presence or absence of a Y chromosome. Using genetics to define sex is (by historical standards) extremely new.
It is totally obvious that the usage refers to sex. The title is "How the Y chromosome makes some cancers more deadly for men", how much more obvious could it be?

Pre-emptive edit: Given that this is a press release for a broader audience, rather than the primary research, I suppose there might actually be some readers who don't make the connection between "Y chromosome" and "sex".
Not sure if anyone lost on this. Consciousness has already been discovered in modern AI algorithm (especially in Google's).
Just needs to be published.
I don’t think it needs to be too strict and can be more friendly. As someone who lacks understanding of color theory, I can learn a lot from this website. In fact, each topic doesn’t have much content. I think it’s a kind of restraint, only retaining the most basic definitions and providing reference materials. In terms of UI, this website looks visually clear and has friendly navigation. Personally, I like it.
Is he ? You are right that he isn't a hobbyist since I'm pretty sure he has formal training, but I thought he actually worked in an engineering related position. Did he make the transition to full time YouTube?
The original name would work in English too though. In the Danish translation the dog is is just idéfix which works just as well in Danish.
Isn’t that just a backronym? I read recently (here, I think) that on some original specific UNIX system, the user directories were there originally, and then other stuff that belonged elsewhere went in there because the other physical volume (where things like /bin were) ran out of space. Later another dish was added and profiles were moved there, to make /home.
The last time I spoke to him, I stated something along the lines of "I know that you have some problems with me". My goal was to see what could be done to reconcile with him. He explicitly denied having any problems with me. I was applying for jobs at the time and needed references from him, and after this conversation he stopped replying to those requests. His behavior doesn't make sense if he really doesn't have any problems with me.
There were no graduation planning meetings. It was not in any way an event planned by the parents. It was completely planned by the school.

They do say that you learn more and more throughout the belt levels of Jiu Jitsu. But once you reach black belt, it starts all over again. So pretty much exactly what you're saying, just that the master has to find new ways outside of trained pathways to accomplish goals. In the end, its an continuum I figure. I've always viewed it - Jiu Jitsu - as a video game with infinite levels.
I believe that's only true for heating oil, but not for gas stations' storage of gasoline.
But that’s still better than not moving the clutter at all. A root directory with important files + clutter is worse then a root directly with only important files and a separate directory with clutter.

I agree with the GP about bikeshedding. A debate about this would never end.

There's been a spec for this for a long time, with some uptake.

If you want config files in one place, at least on Unix-like systems, the Free Desktop Spec recommends that config files be in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME which by default is $HOME/.config - see: https://specifications.freedesktop.org/basedir-spec/basedir-...

This is not true. The reason men tend to rule things is because men tend to lift each other up in life to a higher degree than women do.
Nepotism is one helluva drug. But then again so is ego. So yea, I could believe either it is or isn't true.
> Recently there was real-life incident, the Titan submersible accident which started speculation about a banging noise being Morse Code. When the submersible imploded over 3,800 meters below the surface, the resulting sound was heard as a loud bang by the crew of a passing ship. Conspiracy theories quickly emerged suggesting that the bang was Morse code, a desperate attempt for help from the doomed submarine. However, experts dismissed this idea, explaining that the sound was unrelated.

What kind of game of telephone led to this? The periodic banging noises were reported on Wednesday[0]. Rescue ships heard these noises. The sub had imploded on the previous Sunday. To my knowledge, no passing ship heard the implosion; it was detected by US Navy sensors. The #1 thing reported about the banging noises was that they were coming at 30 minute intervals. Obviously the submarine imploded only once.

Nobody mistook the implosion of the submarine for Morse code - the banging noises were some other third thing. This paragraph must have been the product of substantial confusion.

bacteria isn’t magic.. it requires the right conditions and time, and depending on the additives and type of soil/clay that process may take a very long time. Oil has been in the ground hundreds of millions of years with being broken down by bacteria.

If so this should be something that's possible to control for in studies. I can't find a lot of data from Europe newer than about that date, even suitable for casual discussion.

"[I]n a sense" is doing a lot of work there; if she truly is opposed to (this particular instance of) surveillance capitalism she has far more power than any of us do to fight back against it, eg by introducing a bill to regulate or limit such behavior. The fact that she chooses to portray herself as a singled-out victim instead points to some combination of stupidity, selfishness, and media manipulation.
As stated in my other reply, there was no parent participation in the planning of this. It was a done by the preschool in its entirety. No parents, mothers, fathers, or other legal guardians had a part in planning things.

But what about if the server disappears or the disk failed and it won't start? It doesn't capture the entire process.

I remember at some point we needed to deploy to a new region for a customer and yes it was "too difficult" because some of those manual steps were forgotten and lost. In became a x month long effort to work out all the small details.
Is anyone seriously debating that sex isn't binary?

Gender being different from sex is not a new concept, from the 2001 IOM report (predating the "gender wars"):

The committee defines sex as the classification of living things, generally as male or female according to their reproductive organs and functions assigned by the chromosomal complement, and gender as a person’s self-representation as male or female, or how that person is responded to by social institutions on the basis of the individual’s gender presen- tation. Gender is shaped by environment and experience.

Not much has changed regarding sex from 2001, we've expanded the definition of gender which is clearly much more complicated.

Why is the Instagram reel mirrored horizontally, cutting the frame in half? Doesn't that totally ruin the video, or am I missing something?

Tell that to Jim Farley, the Ford executive who infamously observed, "We know everyone who breaks the law, we know when you're doing it. We have GPS in your car, so we know what you're doing." He then issued possibly one of the most unconvincing retractions in the history of corporate newspeak the next day.
> and even English speakers do have a lot of silly typos and mistakes in their writing all the time

Interestingly, the mistakes non-native English speakers make are different from the ones native speakers make. Thus, excluding non-natives makes it more likely for certain kinds of mistakes to slip by. "There" vs "Their", etc.
It is, but part of being a man (and more importantly, a good person) is understanding that there's a limit to how much you should be looking up to somebody. At some point, the sense of right and wrong you have developed in your life needs to override the mental influence somebody has over you, at which point you can appreciate and continue doing the good that they do without perpetuating the bad. Somebody who has developed as a man probably first experiences this with their parents (or parent figures), and continues experiencing it multiple times throughout their life. There's no reason somebody can't do it first with Peterson. It's a valuable lesson.
Whatever one's views are on the hot button issue, it is breathtaking to watch a throwaway comment completely monopolize the discussion.
As a counterpoint, isn't it implied that the person has read what ChatGPT wrote and by forwarding it, agrees that it's a roughly similar phrasing of their feelings on the issue? One would hope so, anyway.
> The fact that the fediverse crowd see nothing wrong with naming a social network "Mastodon" implies "NERRRDS" without having to even mention it.

I don't think Mastodon even makes the top 25 of most cringeworthy social media parlance when "tweet" continues to be the reigning champion since 2006.
The XDG standard covers most of these as well. Cached data that is safe to delete? There is a directory for that. Runtime data that needs to live as long as the instance of the app? Directory for that. External data your app might rely on but contains no user data? Directory for that.

It's very flexible and widely accepted. It's just not accepted _enough_ to be annoying.
By performed fine, I mean it didn't cave in on itself and the battery did not disconnect.
> All children need fathers

Every study I've seen on the subject has said that children of same sex parents, including having two mothers, do as well or better than their peers across any metric of wellbeing or success.
It's religious. If you have an opportunity to signify that you're on the right team and don't take it, it casts suspicion on you. Maybe you're one of those dirty transphobes.
> the agent who can help you will be calm and calm agents can work wonders. If you are angry, upset, frustrated, hungry, tired (all responsible responses to the situation) the agent will turn into a robot and not go out of their way to help you.

Somewhat contrary perspective: the last time I was stuck in an airport indefinitely, everyone insisted everyone else stay put for indefinite lengths of time, because the delayed flight would leave “as soon as possible”. After several hours of this, I angrily insisted that it isn’t reasonable to keep people at a terminal hanging on indefinitely and that we’d all be better off if everyone could agree to reconvene at the next estimated arrival. A bunch of other passengers emphatically agreed, and the airline staff agreed then too. Then everyone went and had their food and drinks and whatever, and no one was angry anymore when the flight finally boarded.
This isn't for user-specific configuration though.
You must know my friends and acquaintances very well if you can predict their behavior in a hypothetical situation; even I wouldn't venture to do that!
