Seems like Python projects (e.g. the top Py-based Github repos) always have Dockerfiles because they know pip+venv or whatever is notoriously finicky, whereas JS projects will rely safely on npm which is quite portable. After fighting with my Python packages for so long, JS was refreshingly easy.

For standard library, NodeJS keeps things pretty simple server-side. It's messier client-side with browser standards, but it's getting better, and Python can't even run in-browser. I like how JS evolves more gradually than Py which had the hard 2->3 transition.

I don't think it reads very smoothly, and Butler adopts a kind of archaic tone (even for the time, I mean—not just that the translation is, itself, now old) that does more harm than good to the text. Not literal enough to justify the clunkiness, not distinctive and skilled and poetically-sublime enough to be a great English work in its own right (see: Pope) despite putting some effort into it[1]—basically, just a rougher read than other options, without much benefit to offset that. It's not terrible, I'm just not sure there's anything to recommend it—I'd say read a different Homer, and if you want to read Butler, read Erewhon or one of his other novels.

[1] For instance, from the link:

"So saying she bound on her glittering golden sandals, imperishable, with which she can fly like the wind over land or sea; she grasped the redoubtable bronze-shod spear, so stout and sturdy and strong, [...]"

He's trying with all that alliteration and the meter, and at times it works quite well for the space of a few words, but the wider a view, if you will, one takes of it, and as one proceeds with the reading, the worse it looks—to my eye, anyway.

I imagine the bloggers you refer to would find a lot of resonance with some form of the statement “At the federal level, I’m a Republican. At the state level, I’m a Democrat. With my close friends, I’m a socialist. And with my family, I’m a communist.” Are you perhaps missing a bit of nuance?

You can certainly increase density while maintaining green spaces. Westminster (A London borough) has enormous open areas -- Hyde Park, Green Park, Regents Park and St James Park - taking almost half the entire borough's area.

It still has a population of 25,000 per square mile. London as a whole has a density of 14,600. You could add another 6 million people in London while maintaining a density which would allow a third of London to be open green areas.

Even in the United States, there are plenty of stupid and non-stupid rules that people are forced to follow in order to “play the game”. There are also plenty of rules that only apply to certain groups. There are also plenty of people who don’t play the game at all.

Maybe if GGP weren’t so extreme and negatively one-sided with his view, then it’d come off as less pessimistic and more critical.

I am somewhat curious what this will do to wise vs unwise drug dealers. Will a percentage of the wise ones just self host their own platforms? I mean, not them specifically but will they get a geek into their group in the same manor they get people with clean records to move firearms? I forgot what the term for that is. AFAIK law enforcement are perfectly happy to get the unwise dealers as it still makes their numbers look good and appear they are doing something to justify their budget.

DMA is only a problem if transfers can be initiated by an untrusted party. This patch looks to basically just be making it so that transfers which would normally go device->RAM->device with no actual processing of the data transferred instead just go device->device instead (but still initiated by the OS, not the device or the network!). This doesn't affect access control at all, as the trip to RAM doesn't impact that (though it does mean it only works if the machine is not looking at or touching the data at all, which probably means it's only useful in situations where there's no encryption).
Linguist oddity. Sweets is never used to refer to a drink in the US so your statements about "the war on sugar" appeared to apply to non-drinks.

If talking about non-drinks a tax on sugar in drinks is always not the answer. I didn't know why you made the leap and missed evaluating your phrasing to see why the expansion of complaint occurred.

I guess I assumed you were following the original post which was talking about sugar in general.

Honestly your independent thought was "I don't like Pepsi Max as much as a different drink" without listing the other drink or mentioning whether the store even offered alternatives.

Fundamentally I saw "I ordered a cola and didn't like that I got a low sugar one by default"

You then expanded on that independent thought to imply a lot of things that are not in fact dependant on that independent thought.

Remember you said "sugar drink = cigarettes" from a taxing standpoint
It won't go away though, as long as it has a community that wants it.

What goes away is things that get entrusted to capital. Netflix will run a show for two months and then remove it from the universe because it saves them taxes or something.

The internet has passed around documents containing knowledge since way before the capitalists showed up and built their silos.

We are still a society that is half comprised of people who are only capable of thinking of the internet as a better television, with a ruling class willing to do whatever it takes to give them that, but it has never been that and it will never be that. YouTube is just as doomed as the rest of the Free Money Era corporations.

I'm assuming there is a fuller post behind the paywall because the one that I see seems extremely short.

I'm also going to assume the author is referring to the mythical Paris of the early 20th century for its artist/creative opportunities. If that's the case, a couple things:

1. None of us actually experienced early 20th century Paris, so we judge it romantically on the output (particularly in English/Spanish) of creatives living there.

2. Do we have (or the author have) evidence of a similar kind of creative output (particularly in English/Spanish) from Tokyo? My sense is no, even though I like Japanese food and Japanese punk. I don't like or follow anima/manga so maybe that is a blind side for me to see such evidence.

3. Tokyo is cheaper than Paris/NYC/London, but it's still not super cheap, and Japan is not the easiest country to move to. I'm not aware of many "creative" foreigners moving semi-permanently to Tokyo in anything comparable to Paris, 20th or 21st century.

With vim, I have to battle and make small concessions on how formatting behaves.

Yeah, learning by example and by doing is the best way to learn any programming concept. But using misleading and confusing analogies along the way will just make the learning process harder, not easier.

Explaining monads in terms of promises and futures will make a beginner associate them with asynchronous programming, which might make some sense for some monads. But now show such a beginner a simple list comprehension and explain it is also a monad, and I assure you they will be very confused!

OK, so there's misinformation from industrial scale propaganda dissemination, there's misinformation from hallucination, but I think a less talked about aspect of LLM generalization of misinformation is to look at LLM's as a tool that will actually train us to think in a certain way.

> it accidently sent billions of dollars extra

No it didn’t. It technically sent $billions less to Ukraine due to the incorrect valuation being used for the mostly obsolete military equipment we’re lend leasing Ukraine.[1] It just means there’s $6.2B more worth of obsolete equipment that can be sent under existing authorization. Technically we’re ridding ourselves of the massive cost of decommissioning the equipment, getting valuable real-world intel on system performance and enemy capabilities, while knee capping one of our major geopolitical adversaries and our only significant marginal cost is shipping! This is the financial deal of the century!

Canvas suffers from being originally designed for use in elementary (K-12) school, and then kind of wedged into college.

It is doubtful they cared one bit. The 186 was really targeted at the embedded market (which is why it integrated so much of the usual support chips roles onboard the CPU). So it did not likely figure much here.

For the 286, do keep in mind that prior to IBM releasing the PC-AT, no one at Intel likely considered that anyone would want to use their newfangled 286 as nothing more than a "fast 8086". It appears that Intel's plan for the 286 was that everyone would also have a 286 protected mode OS to run upon it, and 8086 real mode was included only for the purposes of setting up the minimum necessary protected mode data tables to enable a switch into protected mode. This is one of the reasons why the 286 provided no documented way to leave protected mode once the OS flipped the PE bit in CR0 to 1. And, in 'protected mode' one has to provide protection against executing invalid opcodes for it to be properly a 'protected mode'.

The fact that most 286 system purchasers were running their shiny new 286 as nothing more than a fast 8086 for many years probably caused much more consternation at Intel than the fact that the [12]86's generated exceptions for undocumented 8086 opcodes.
