I switch between golang's proportional font and Nirmala UI. They look really good on high dpi screens and are just generally attractive fonts. Indentation width is a drawback since space characters tend to be small. Code that uses two spaces for indentation is not nearly enough of an offset in my opinion. Four space indentation looks like two space for a monospace font, which is generally good enough. Also punctuation can be an issue as proportional fonts tend to have small, easy to miss punctuation.
My dad does, which used to drive me nuts when I wanted to help him out when I was in college. These days I think it sounds like a good idea but I haven’t tried it yet.

I bet it would traumatize some of my VIM diehard teammates.
Oh I mean, everything from the Marlboro man to "Just Do It" to Apple's "Think Different" was basically a corporate hook carefully crafted to be an appeal to individualism - although Apple threaded a needle with respect to exactly whom they chose to glorify as exemplars. The marketing pablum of the past decade that appeals to tribal identity, or a lack of sense of self searching for identity, (socially conscious identity or its opposite number), and which talks down to people, is bad marketing plain and simple. It's also corrosive to a state of affairs in which people learn to take responsibility for their own decisions, as it places the onus or impulse on external structures. I'd much rather hear that I'm a rugged individual for smoking Marlboros than that I'm joining a burgeoning herd by "exploring" some new NodeJS framework. But hey, I was conditioned to reject authority in the age when rejecting authority was genuinely difficult and not a paved road. And my generation's ad agencies had to write campaigns that contended with that, which as deceitful and devious as they were, reflected a reality about our society's impulse to rebuff control which largely no longer exists.

That's because 10 minutes away is too far, that's almost a mile, and it becomes a chore.

I live a block from a store, and its much, much easier and more plesant than going to the effort of getting the car out, driving somewhere, having to find a parking spot, etc... Driving's a pain in the arse.

A decently walkable suburb/city would have a store within a block or two, maybe a five minute walk.

If you ask the AI to reply to someone then you are currently present, authenticated, and confirming an action. An inbound email has none of these features.

For the papers, just make an academic policy: "Attempts to jailbreak our grader AI if discovered will result in expulsion".

Conclusion is that unregulated full automation is never a good solution regarding sensitive data, regardless of confidence in the automaton. Conventional security/authentication practices, law/policy, and manual review are solutions for these cases.
conduit runs on pi zero -- though you can't directly migrate so that is of limited use to you. It would probably fail to join matrixhq or python room but, this is due to obvious resource constraints. Any reasonable horsepower and you won't have an issue.
In situations like that, you can click the timestamp of the dead comment and then click “vouch”. The comment will usually show up for everyone. (I just did it for whywhy.)

Comments from new accounts are sometimes autokilled for a variety of reasons, e.g. if the comment is posted from a Tor exit node.

In the "terminally online" communities I hang out in, it's a term of endearment since there's a pattern of obsessive people (like terminally online people) also being on the spectrum.

They aren't othering someone by calling them autists, they're calling them one of themselves by highlighting that they're behaving in a similar way.
Wild to read about this shift, and I'm glad this wasn't the meta when I was competing. (Won bronze at nationals for Parliamentary debate)

One of the aspects I loved most about parli was specifically that you weren't going in there with prepared arguments, father would have to think through the implications of a topic on the fly.
It's pretty common knowledge. The (F)OSS community being full of poorly adjusted/autistic people taking power trips the second they get the least bit of community status is the most classic story around in tech.
Climate change absolutely won't be solved in twenty years if everybody stops having kids. What's your logic there?
Thanks that’s interesting. If it’s so hard to determine if a substance is superconducting, does that mean many substances that are apparently but not quite superconducting have similar applicability? I.e., if you need superconductors for X application, can you not just put the substance in question in that application and observe if it works or not? Sorry for the dumb questions.

FWIW the Bridgeport milling machines could hit 1/10,000th of an inch which is 25 microns of accuracy many years ago. DRO and precisely controlled steppers on newer machines can do much better.

The Pratt and Whitney Jig Borer was hitting 50 microns... in 1928. See https://img.photobucket.com/albums/v337/johnoder/8PiecesofIr...

We're not talking about "for fun" or "style" as much as content. Does the content get better? Does the film improve as it progresses? If the review is only based on style, then I guess, sure. But as far as content, well how would one know unless they read the rest of it?

There are plenty of novels that change quite significantly in character partway through. There are plenty of films with a weird first act before you get into it.

If a book is popular and has thousands of people reviewing it, why not let the people with enough context (i.e. those who actually read all of it or at least the majority of it) review it? Is one so smart that their review based on only partial information is necessary and needs to add to the chorus of all of the other reviews?

Would you trust the review of a professional movie critic if they said well they didn't like the first 15 minutes so they just quit. Well today because we all have a megaphone through review sites, we are all on the level of professional critics to more of an extent than anyone would be in 1990 so we all have some responsibility to write informed reviews.
I was excited initially, but now I would place the probability that this is true at under 1%. If you build a working room temperature superconductor in 2021 and have a patent ready in March 2023, it is absolutely ridiculous that you would not have dozens of samples to share by now. Everyone is focusing on replication but we haven't even independently validated their claim yet.

No - particularly because these debates occurred at many tables simultaneously, like games of chess. Of course the point of rhetoric is to win an audience, but this type of training was much more than that.

Plainly put: You can never truly arrive at or trust your own beliefs if you can't completely understand and articulate the best possible case against them. In order to do that, you must put yourself in the position of one who believes the opposite of what you do. Maybe you'll even find your own beliefs change in this process. But humility and courage of your conviction, if you have a conviction, demands that you can argue the other side better than anyone on the other side.

Also, where reasonable people disagree, there are always two versions of the truth. Learning to grapple with that fact teaches one not to see everything in pure black and white. Which has the benefit of teaching one to judge practices on the merits rather than individuals on their orthodoxy.
All countries in the world have mixed economies. (Except maybe Somalia or North Korea.)

The US has a fair amount more publically owned sectors than Europe, which eg has privatized postal services.

It's the display that needs calibration. Pen doesn't know where it is, the screen does. So each complete device or at least the screen needs to have a valid calibration table or a function for raw xy -> calibrated xy.
I mean, yes, but it was brought to a crest then. It went from a bunch of folks in the community separately saying "yeah, he's kinda problematic..." to a bunch of folks standing together and saying "he's problematic!"

So of course it had been going on a while if more than 3000 people were "suddenly" willing to sign the open letter against him.
> While Amtrak is supposed to have the right of way it’s often impossible for a freight train to [pull in to a siding]

Sounds like the system is working as designed for the shipping companies - they no longer have to pull aside, wait for Amtrak to pass them by, and resume. Much less downtime with a bonus of having the too-long trains carry more freight per employee!

- personal experience as a dramanaut
Governments often behave like gangster syndicates. Not in all cases or in every way, but if you take the premise as given, and then explain apparent deviations as outcomes of internal power struggle or PR campaigns to garner broad support, most things that happen within large governments make some kind of sense, anti-trust included.

Governments will accept and enjoy a monopoly if they get a piece of the pie, but there are usually dissenting interests in the wings saying "your monopoly is stopping us from building OUR monopoly, so knock it off". And then anti-trust can have teeth. Likewise, a monopoly can "rise above" negative public opinion and be forced to legitimacy if it demonstrates that it's serving the interests of power. Or a demographic that was being courted ages out, and suddenly the political mood changes to serve the new set of players and things magically become possible.

But this kind of thing also accounts for why some public investments get lots of funding, while others languish or are captured by do-nothing rentiers. Or why you end up with popular culture being funded within a narrow set of genres and themes. It's a whole oroborous of elite interests making deals to allocate capital, and often pursuing ego gratification along the way.
I didn't say that was the "easiest" solution, or ever imply it. Don't put quotes around words I didn't say. That's really not cool.

The library is designed for use-cases like getting git metadata or contents from git repos. IIRC, the previous main sponsor (creator?) was a product that let you run SQL SELECT queries against git repos. There's no need to interact with the working tree at all in that type of use-case, so why would they spend a bunch of time implementing diffs for it?

If you're trying to use this library for an IDE, or something else like that where arbitrary modifications are made to working dir files, you're going to have a bad time. The library simply wasn't created to do what you want it to do. That doesn't mean it's bad or useless. It's directly imported by Vault, Pulumi, k8s test-infra, etc because its use-case is aligned with what these projects need.

Personally I think it's cool that I can use go-git to clone a git repo to memory and then perform programmatic read operations on the repo's contents. That's useful to me. It's not useful to you, and that's fine, but clearly we have different opinions and expectations around community-driven FOSS software projects.
There's a clear distinction between

Anything based on endless scrolling is already inherently shitful for meaningful persistent content. It makes anything into a black hole where information goes to die. But before that, it gives you a sense of anxiety because everything is moving around and you have no fixed reference points, and encourages random idle chatter....

As far as I'm concerned it is not a technology that should exist aside from realtime viewing of feeds, and things meant from random idle chatter.

People are using Discord like as if it's a forum and a wiki in one. Which isn't the worst thing, because it's better than nothing, but I think it would be better with an integrated real forum that auto-posts new topics in the chat.

If you have something you think is worthy of preserving, say it in a paginated forum where people can find it, if you have an ephemeral shitpost, say it in the chat. If you want to scroll through history of ephemeral shitposts and see what's happening, even that should have a calendar based pagination UI.

Old forums used to have shoutboxes. Proboards and phpbb and the like were basically already perfect.

If I was going to do a community platform, I'd just build a forum. The only thing I think I'd change is I'd make it so you could download archives, and I'd consider having a wikipedia style policy of everything being Creative Commons.
if something that is so readily copied from a mere visual inspection, it does not deserve to be protected tbh.
This argument becomes recursive almost immediately. He criticizes their opinion; you criticize his opinion of their opinion; he criticizes your opinion of his opinion of their opinion, and so forth.
Interesting! Do you know how?
mRNA injections won't do it. You'd need a CRISPR for that. And someway to get the rest of your body to take up the cells with the new genes, and you're a little late for most of your cells. I think you're better off searching for non-alcoholic alternatives in the short-medium term.
R&D and tooling costs have grown enormously to bring new fab process nodes online, but the actual per-wafer costs of materials and operating expenses historically haven't been growing to the same alarming degree. But that's changing, as new nodes are increasingly relying on power-hungry tools with low throughput that wear out mask sets at an unprecedented rate. It's not implausible for the industry to reach a point where new leading-edge processes will never mature to the point that they make economic sense for the low-cost applications that currently stay a few nodes behind the leading edge.
“Most important one in physics this century”: I’m hoping the room-temperature superconductor pans out, but even if it does, the century is young!

This time in the 20th century, relativity was “obviously” the most important discovery of the century, with the new theory of quantum mechanics right around the corner.
They left off some qualifiers. According to wikipedia, it's applicable to a continuous function mapping a nonempty compact convex set to itself. Which ends up making a lot more sense to me.
That was the big benefit I saw w/parliamentary debate over policy.
The lack of prepared topics and arguments helped you learn how to think critically and rapidly under pressure.

(and if you tried speaking at speed like a policy debater, you would lose points)
What's the rush? If it's real we'll figure it out soon enough. If it takes days or weeks or even months, that will make little difference in the long run.
Which means 2 centuries before we get back to 7 or 8.
That page seems totally reasonable and admirable to me. It’s literally just advocating for including the wide and varied history of algorithm development, in order to encourage readers from many different backgrounds to find ways to connect with the important topic.

What a shit show it must be.

Immediately throw away any proposed topic and start arguing about your favorite theme. If this isn't kind of cheating, I don't know what it should be.

> Teachers in the US are required to have a Master’s level education and multiple months of student teaching in order to be certified to teach.

There is no federal teacher licensing standard, and state standards vary (and only apply to public school teachers, IIRC). In several states, the only educational requirement is a bachelor's degree. [1] This educational requirement might be coupled with required teaching experience, but this experience can be gained by teaching in a private school, where such requirements do not apply. And none of these experiential requirements establish a baseline for excellence — they just measure based on "time served".

It is simply false to assume that all teachers are "experts" to whom parents (who may have many more years of education, not that formal education is the touchstone), should defer.

That's policy/Lincoln Douglas, parliamentary debate is wildly different. From the article it sounds like having prepared topics and critics is starting to seep even into parliamentary debate. :/

The deeper you go in ruby, the more you regret metaprogramming.

It's fine for those 2-3 cases, and should be banned everywhere else.
In rails is highly abused. What rails achieved and it's good at can be achieved with less metaprogramming, but of course nobody is going to build another rails, since rails is already there.
It's fine to be completely sober, and also fine to tell people you are. If you jump into a conversation about people drinking without hangovers to talk about how you have been sober and recommend others also become sober, then you have to expect someone to reply that moderation is better. Maybe not for the poster (whatever works for them, and if miduil had issues in the past congrats on overcoming them) but for average reader.
What would be the reason to use this as opposed to something like NextJS or RedwoodJS?
Energy consumption is an indicator of living standards. I hope we harness and use much more reliable energy!
Actually not that unlikely, imagine the allowed range of calibration is 0-100, the factory is likely to produce parts with small variance, but having same constant offset, resulting in output of screens between 70-80. While default in software might be set exactly in the middle at 50. Knowing how a large organization works, the default set in sw is probably not even close to what comes out of production lines, it's just an assumption some dev made that happened to work good enough on his desk 4 years ago.

Even if the screens would cover the whole spectrum, there is still a high chance this coincidence could happen, and more data would be needed to validate either theory. Is there any statistics showing that this happens all the time or just some times.

Copyright, by definition, is a monopoly. You are confusing licenced distributors with the copyright owner where the actual monopoly is. Each of those don't individually distribute all content because copyright holders use their monopoly to limit distribution
The Earth's climate is broadly stable (a random walk within certain ranges for hundreds of millions -if not billions- of years!) because of the water cycle. The water cycle need only speed up a wee bit to cool the planet if forcings get a bit hotter, and the water cycle need only slow down a wee bit to warm the planet if forcings get a bit colder. Condensation leading to precipitation radiates a great deal of energy into space. Clouds also increase the albedo, though at night they also block the escape of radiation to space from the surface, so this effect not as large as the condensation effect.
They preclude ASCII and Unicode diagrams.

As readers of my book *All One in Christ* will find, the content of CRT is even more disturbing than this brief summary indicates – and it is also riddled with blatant logical fallacies, crude social scientific errors, and assumptions and policy recommendations that are utterly contrary to the natural moral law and the Catholic faith.

appears to be a lengthy pro catholic | anti CRT self promoting strawman.

WikiFunctions, I believe, has a larger purpose in the context of Wikimedia wikis, and that is they are building a library of functions that can be called directly from wikitext and the code will be evaluated automatically when the page is rendered.

I think the idea is to provide an easy way to embed dynamic content into the text of a Wikipedia article. This should provide a nice compliment to the way WikiData is used to dynamically insert data into articles.

Note: I worked for the Wikimedia foundation in the past, however, I wasn't involved with WikiFunctions. I just have some vague memories of internal product planning discussions about the feature.
I'm 45 (i.e not a Millennial) and I've turned subtitles on when possible for many ywars because I dislike having to go back and rewatch repeatedly when dialogue is ambiguous.

It's not hard to pay attention to both aspects of a film. Does the author of the article insist on watching dubbed versions of foreign-language films instead of subtitles?
