You ignored my other comment regarding how clean water is indeed a Constitutionally mandated power. Having a safe and secure access and usage of water is definitely part of the "general welfare" within Art 1 Sec 8. And no, water doesn't have to be explicitly listed. "General welfare" is a much wider term, that can encompass more and more, as minimum humanity standards increase.

"General welfare" is also a way that the EPA can run, and actually mandate strong changes to reverse massive pollution, and act strongly against climate change. Having high humidity and heat can and will make areas unlivable for humans.

(And I do agree that the commerce clause being used everywhere is a load of garbage in much of its applications.)

Given that in Article 1 Section 8 is the following:

"The Congress shall have Power To lay and collect Taxes, Duties, Imposts and Excises, to pay the Debts and provide for the common Defense and general Welfare of the United States; but all Duties, Imposts and Excises shall be uniform throughout the United States;"

highlight: "provide for the common Defense and general Welfare"

You know, as a much, much younger person I actually thought that there is not even a reason for raises ( I had no concept of inflation ) if you are doing the same thing over and over. Eventually, I saw just how much an average manager makes and I realized that it is literally a zero sum game. Management just gets a bigger slice if they manage to somehow bamboozle its workforce so there is a big incentive to do just that regardless of whether it sounds stupid or is even based on facts.

More amusingly, I never saw a manager pass on an increase 'to not fuel inflation' further.
The Mayor Had a Photo of a Fallen Officer. Was His Story About It True?
Okay you disagree, I get it. But refrain from unctuous condescension. I have never claimed to be infallible or omniscient so please stop painting it as if I have.
(I have no extra knowledge of the topic, just read the article and found it interesting)

You are right that at certain points randomness is emphasised, but I think the main claim of the article is that evolution is not driven purely by random mutations.

The generally accepted theory is that progress is driven by small, continuously occurring changes (mutations), which happen solely due to DNA/RNA transcription errors (random = not influenced by external factors), and this gradually leads to the formation of new capabilities/species.

Instead the article suggests that
1. there are multiple other paths how the DNA is modified, not just by point errors (not just mutations) - examples of this are the TE changes you quoted, but also completely absorbing long pieces of DNA (and potentially entirely new capabilities) from other species, inbreeding, etc.
2. and that external factors influence the frequency of this happening, e.g. by reacting to stress (the process is not purely random)
Isn't the same true with labor? If they can get more money for their work, they will ask for more money or quit and find a job that pays more? At least, that is what seems to have been happening for the last couple of years. The only problem with that is that finding a new job kind of sucks and is risky.
My grandfather (a vulcanologist) set up measuring stations in Iceland in the 1930s to prove that Iceland was spreading apart. Unfortunately, the war interrupted that, and he died in the war.
Had this too the other day. I am 100% certain that the ban is just a ploy to force you to give them more personal data. In my case it was a phone number, next up maybe a selfie.
Yeah hard to describe probably to anyone growing up in a post-YouTube, post-Steam, post-Playstation store era, but getting a video or playable demo of like 20 or 30 games on a demo disc that was sometimes packaged in with a magazine you'd buy in the store was incredible.
Makes you wonder whether the internet does something similar to our human minds. Too much information feedback and signal loss actually harming our ability to think and understand things deeply.
The XML way is very good for XMLs purpose, which is enabling generic tooling that doesn't need to understand the semantics of the particular application language, which is great for building a foundation for tooling to support thousands of application languages most of which will have very few users so it is very good if much of the tooling cost is smeared across lots of other languages.

HTML is important enough that it warrants direct investment in tooling and doesn’t need the XML approach.
I see these https://www.threads.net/t/xxx links to specific threads, but is there any top level page where you can search for stuff or browse ? https://www.threads.net just has a QR code (to install the app presumably).
It hardly debunks it. Scroll to the bottom of page four in the original report.

I treat this whole thing just like every other government message; could be this, could be that, could be a combination of both. If anyone takes any message from any government agency from any country as gospel truth they are delusional.
And are these tickets issued or tickets actually paid? I can imagine a lot of people just toss the ticket and hope for the best.
The government has no authority to decide for me whether something is misinformation. They can share their opinions and I'll be the judge of what I trust. If Facebook reaches the same conclusion independently, without being coerced by the government, I'd react according to how I feel about the specific issue. Maybe I'd stop using the platform. I'm not claiming NYT or FB needs to publish my views, I don't expect that at all. What I don't want is the government telling them what they can and can't publish.
Did you read the injunction? it isn't vague at all. The injunction only prohibits actions which should be illegal in the first place.

Can you name a specific action that you think this injunction prohibits or potentially prohibits that you think should be allowed?
Now imagine if the same words were used by the trump admin personnel! Left media would scream words like bullying. This gives complete justification and vindication of how the trump admin behaved! Untouchable.

I think model predictions match observations, in more ways than "it's getting warmer by about the right amount".

Not a climate scientist, but roughly, from memory:

- Past predictions didn't know exactly what future emissions will be like. Applying real emissions to the models gives "correct" warming quantities

- Climate is changing in a similar manner to predicted, e.g. the poles are warming more quickly than the other areas
Unsustainable, for who?

Not for wealthy people, that's for sure...

and in a capitalist society, people without money don't count...
If someone leaves their phone unattended I can gives a thumbs up and get them on the hook for tens of thousands of dollars.
Marginal impact decreases, but the absolute impact is still positive... And the marginal impact is still quite high at the 85th percentile of income because the income distribution is very skewed (the absolute dollar difference from 85th percentile to 99th percentile, where most HN / YC founders probably are on the intelligence scale, is probably much greater than the absolute dollar difference from 15th to 29th percentile, as an example).
Do you do that when they send a message "here's some documents", or would you send a thumb up if the message said "Attached is a proposal for the client, are you OK if we send it out?"

Like, surely, in that case you'd treat a thumb up as a dangerous message to send as an ACK? :-)

As well, do you follow your thumbs up eventually with something else? Because if I read it correctly, farmer had from March to November to follow-up on the thumbs up ... as well, there was previous precedent with that exact farmer, which makes it hard to argue "Oh, those previous times I meant thumbs up as acceptance of contract, but in this case I meant is as just an acknowledgment" :-/

> It's as stupid of a concept as a corporation having an opinion.. opinions are reserved for PEOPLE and I have no idea how you could come up with an argument to change my mind on that.

I guess I don’t understand your point here unless we’re being ultra-literal and saying a corporation can’t have an opinion because it doesn’t have a physical brain developing individual thought.

An example of “corporate opinion” off the top of my head: Facebook is in favour of advertising. I guess it's just a shorthand for "the executive board and shareholders of Facebook share the collective view that advertising is good" but I don't think anyone is particularly confused about what is meant when someone says Facebook is favour of something.
Out of pocket maximum for silver level HSA eligible health insurance is probably at least $5k if not $7k+. Premiums for a family of 4 are $30k, and if employer pays for 70%, then you are left with $10k.

$20k for federal/local takes. $80k-$20k-$10k is $50k. Max out HSA and 401k is ~$25k or more. $25k left, or roughly $2k/month left for mortgage/rent, food, utilities, car(s), vacations, etc.

Of course, you can not max 401k and HSA, but my opinion would be that is insufficient savings.
The article is not talking about quiet quitting. They discuss actual quitting which we do have stats for.

The surprising thing is how captive we our to the chemical responses of our brains. These companies measure out dopamine like a drug and use their games to drip-feed it methodically to maximize your cash spend.
That's weird. I always had the exact opposite impression.

Early JRPGs felt comfortably Western to me because they just lifted the Tolkien-esque medieval fantasy vibe whole cloth.

But FF7 felt like a totally random pastiche of genres that were jammed together in such an unusual combination that I could only imagine someone from another culture thinking to combine them.

Like making an apple pie with hotdogs in it. Yes, nominally it would be super American, but no American would ever think to put those together in that way.
I like the four-document model. While it isn't a perfect fit for all cases, for many it is a good start.

We wrote a review of bioinformatics software documentation, which includes a taxonomy of research software documentation (Table 1) and examples of which popular bioinformatics software packages use each two (Table 2). It is clear that not every kind is needed for everything, and it's more of a menu than a prescriptive set of documentation types needed for everything:

Of the two best managers I've ever had, one was ancient and the other was fresh out of college. It leads me to think that age is not terribly relevant to the issue.
Yeah, I had to remove myself from gaming subs.
I would be even more be supportive if the political sides were reversed. Imagine a Trump White House was threatening social media companies, and pressuring them to restrict posts on climate change, civil rights, or some other progressive cause. Why wouldn't I support it if the political sides were reversed?

The First Amendment doesn't just protect people from being imprisoned by the government for their speech. It also prohibits the government from pressuring or coercing private individuals and companies into censoring content. Otherwise, the government could just pressure private entities into doing whatever censorship they want. This isn't a ban on speech, this is a ban on government coercion.
FWIW, with OneDrive sync, I haven't noticed that problem. I use Joplin quite a bit from both desktop and mobile, but have been living without the browser extensions in an experiment since the beginning of this year.
Bread is indeed different nowadays, specially in the americas.

Modern wheat was "invented" by Norman Borlaug in the 60s. It was genetically modified (through breeding and other means) to provide higher yield.

Some places, like Italy and France, still use the old low yield "original" wheat.

I learned this painful lesson when I thought I had gluten allergy. I can't eat any kind of bread in the US. But when I went to France, I had no problems. Turns out (AFAIK), high yield wheat is also really hard to digest...

I only use French flour now.
In particular, they need to find if there was any actual coercion or threat made by the gov't agencies to remove the speech they asked to. For example, when the FBI was asking Twitter to take down videos (of content that violated Twitter's own TOS), Twitter could've told them to go pound sand. But it would be a different story if the FBI indicated that Twitter "ought to" do it or face increased scrutiny, perhaps.
> they (the government)

They here refers to the Biden administration, unless you're alleging the Biden administration conspired with a Republican Congress to coerce social networks into silencing posts that Republicans themselves were in favor of

it's laughable on its face that this is a plausible threat, and the fact that Facebook totally ignored the "demands" when it suited them indicates empirically that there was no such implied threat they felt pressured by

indeed, Facebook, with knowledge of US partisanship, and a hand in increasing it, was best suited to dismiss such a bipartisan conspiracy theory aimed at silencing such speech a Republican Congress would never dream of silencing
Correct: fork bombs rarely help
Yes, I suspect both. Cannibalism is an efficient way to divert resources to the offspring with the highest chance of survival for some species. But many animals also practice cannibalism only in captivity, and the increased stress and density both seem like they would promote that.
There's only one way to find out!
> I'm surprised there isn't a move to write HTML in JSON syntax.

JSON doesn't support sum types, and HTML (like all of XML) is all about sum types.

Besides, the quotes everywhere are a step into "more annoying", not less.

So, no, I don't think that move will ever happen.
id say anything that evaluates as truthy is fair game.
Aimed more at adults, but the Architecture Studio was intended to be more free-form:

There are no 'models' to build, and the "instructions" that come with it are more a discussion of architectural principles, as adapted for Lego as needed.
I'm a little rusty in this area, but I'm pretty sure you'll have a hard time getting a direct IP allocation (vs from your transit provider) unless you are multi-homed, which apparently they were not.

There is a nice tick up in complexity when you go to advertising your address space via BGP to multiple providers.
Ok thanks, I was here thinking my elementary school must've been terrible. We learned that pushing an object makes it move.
It seems to work but mainly against later 7 ddos or similar. You still need enough endpoints that the lower layers don’t bounce you.
It's partially solved.

You may have a chance to see justice because it won't matter if the cop and his 5 buddies say you provoked them with a camera. It's unambiguous that you can record them and there's no possibility of reasonable doubt if you're allowed to record them 100% of the time. There's no loophole they can use to say you can't record them due to privacy or safety or whatever other reasons they want to make up and they'll be in the wrong the second they take action against you.

Do you ever wonder why cops don't want bodycams on them recording 24/7? Their job is supposedly so difficult and dangerous (their words,) that you'd think they would want to show the entire world how difficult and dangerous their jobs are. Maybe people would agree with them about increasing their funding instead of calling to defund them if they had video proof of the difficulty and danger in their jobs instead of taking their word for it?
What if the party that receives that ask knows that legally they can reject it with a "hah, no" note and the government can't do anything about it? Free speech is thoroughly protected in the US.

Are there any carveouts about how even government employees are private citizens when they don't work in government capacity. Can Amy from the DMV ask to have revenge porn taken down? Can Tim from the IRS tell his wife who works at Twitter that he thinks Elon is a liar and grifter?
That’s a pretty hysterical outlook.

What’s Nvidia supply chain like with their AI GPUs? Is it constrained or is this a joke :p
> I think Evernote’s problem is that it should have just stayed a 1-2 person company. They ramped up costs, then pushed up prices, and customers mehhed out.

This is the problem with most VC funded startups. You have millions invested into an app that really is a glorified CRUD service that somehow ends up with a team of 500 engineers, and 3000 more employees. When it comes time to actually make a profit, these companies struggle because the value proposition simply isn't there for what they're offering.

Take GrubHub and DoorDash for example. Is a delivery app that is basically a glorified basic ordering system really worth 30% of the transaction? No. But someone has to pay back the billions spent on useless corporate bloat and thousands of employees.
You can get to users profiles too and view their posts: https://www.threads.net/@zuck.

Ok, you got me. Thousands of peer reviewed papers Vs Wikipedia and xkcd.
This has tripped me up in stores. You bring 1 item and they tell you, "This thing is two for X (price)". If you then say "Ok" disinterestedly, will they sell you one or two of those?
Yeah, I don't quite understand this attitude. If you use a computer as much as I do, you deserve to have a nice keyboard. Maybe not $2000 USD nice, but still decent.

I had gotten nearly two decades of use from the three of my Microsoft Natural keyboards (the original one). They weren't that expensive at the time.

I'm currently running a pair of MS Natural 4000s (one bought used from eBay) that are each approximately a decade old. I had to take them apart once to clean the key membrane, but they've been fine since. (Just looking at one of them now in front of me... it could really use a good vacuuming.)
It’s been well established by this point that Americans do not believe their government should lie to them and that when it does, it damages the long-term effectiveness of the government at leading the people. This was a short-sighted move that ultimately damaged public health.
> The purpose of a car is to take you from a to b. If you don’t need that service, you don’t need a car at all

It would take like 2 hours to walk across the GTA V map on foot north to south.

> and if you don’t need a car it’s doubly true you don’t need a virtual car even if it is cheaper

Wait, are you saying if I don't need a car in reality, I don't need a car in a game? I'm not the Hero of Time, so I guess I don't need any weapons when playing Zelda. I'm not a soldier, so I don't need guns in Battlefield.
> Many people (especially tech people) have an almost psychotic adversity against any kind of paid online services.

> who'd refuse to pay $10 per year

I've not actually seen many services that charge $10 per year. Most instead charge $5 per month / $50 per year. The few services I know of that do charge in the range of what you specify are near universally regarded as really good value.
I would bet the opposite because I can make a blind assertion.
True, they could be owned by the State, which opens another can of worms.

A coop newspaper would be cool, although if it is viable why isn't it already happening? Or is it?
It's great MySQL is still getting some love. I have no complaints with it.
That is a US intelligence agency, whose mission is by necessity shrouded in secrecy. They are not the French police, the work of whom typically will be presented in an open court for scrutiny.
> Actually, no, the worst part is the fact that I have to pretend to believe all these companies about their stupid mission statement, and how they're going to save the world

Maybe its really obvious you feel that way and you should find a company that has a product that resonates with you so you don't have to fake it.

> You can't just do a task because you want a paycheck

You can but don't be expected to be paid high end tech salaries for it.
Are you thinking more like a research paper or more like a textbook?

For a textbook at least, it often seems to be the case that you need to have fully ingested the big picture ideas of one chapter to move on to some later ones, but this seems to me at least more like updating your model, rather than sampling context from the whole book (I mean it is an analogy of course, so neither matches perfectly).
I wonder how many of the more technologically sophisticated students setup p2p networks.

In high school one of the better Calculus students in my class had written a script using his graphics calculator. The script could complete certain classes of problem automatically while showing every step of workings. Kinda like the p2p network: the kids with the skill to set it up probably don’t need any extra help on the exams.
My daughter will be getting her own Lego and possibly a selection of mine. I organized mine for the first time in my life last year. Some of the sets I've had since the very late 80s and early 90s. Those aren't getting lost :P

She can play with them supervised, but she'll have her own. This is all assuming she's even interested, she's only 2 so who knows yet.
I'm sure the top comment here will be something like "this is invalid because no way can you assign a numerical value to code quality! wtf?!"

I'm withholding my own judgement on that.

For anyone curious, the authors are coming up with a code quality score using an open-source tool called SoftWipe[0]. From the paper:

> SoftWipe is an open source tool and benchmark to assess, rate, and review scientific
software written in C or C++ with respect to coding standard adherence. The coding
standard adherence is assessed using a set of static and dynamic code analysers such
as Lizard (https://github.com/terryyin/lizard) or the Clang address sanitiser (https:
//clang.llvm.org/). It returns a score between 0 (low adherence) and 10 (good adherence). In order to simplify our experimental setup, we excluded the compilation warnings, which require a difficult to automate compilation of the assessed software, from the analysis using the --exclude-compilation option.

There are even more recent examples - the ancient age ended relatively recently in Hawaii, but even though they were not present prior to European contact, outsiders expect "Hawaiian food" to include pineapple or coconut or macadamia nuts.
I find that feed awful. It's showing me a lot of people that I don't know and that I have no interest in knowing.
