> Structurally, it feels like North American houses have been built the same way since the colonies started (sidings, frames/studs, gabled/shingled roofs).

In the US, this depends a lot on where you are (at least for older buildings). Buildings tended to be built from whatever materials were in the area, so you get lots of brick in the midwest, lots of woodframe in the west, etc. What primary material was used has a pretty large effect on the style of the building.
Low-temperature mineralization of perfluorocarboxylic acids
"Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS) are persistent, bioaccumulative pollutants found in water resources at concentrations harmful to human health. Whereas current PFAS destruction strategies use nonselective destruction mechanisms, we found that perfluoroalkyl carboxylic acids (PFCAs) could be mineralized through a sodium hydroxide-mediated defluorination pathway. PFCA decarboxylation in polar aprotic solvents produced reactive perfluoroalkyl ion intermediates that degraded to fluoride ions (78 to ~100%) within 24 hours."

Local Overrides stores the files you chose to override in a folder of your choosing. Subsequent requests for that resource while devtools is open will replace the contents with your local copy.

So the idea is store it in local Overrides, find the bad anti debug code and remove it, then you get back full control in devtools.
Crash reports are not telemetry, they are debugging/error reporting tools. Every application that has ever had a crash reporting function, did so by prompting the user to submit it first. The reason is pretty obvious: crash reports contain more data than a user might like to submit, and so the user gets to choose to submit it or not. Often they do choose to submit it, but again, they get the choice, and don't need to go through an awkward process to manually copy their offline data into an online process. Nobody has stopped using operating systems and browsers just because they have a crash reporter that can optionally submit the crash report to an internet site.

Telemetry is not sensitive data. Telemetry is "signals". For desktop software, telemetry is often what operating system, cpu architecture, and software version you're running. Your OS reports that, your browser reports that, every self-updating application you use reports that. This is not controversial nor sensitive data and has no privacy implication.

> This is only true because the UX of mastodon, Gemini, GrapheneOS, and other darlings of the non-commercial web crowd are so bad

I don't know... many "commercial websites" are really, really slow. Slack, for one, regularly takes seconds to show me a few text messages. A big bloated website I absolutely hate is HelloFresh: I see how they may think it looks good, but loading it feels like I'm compiling a kernel or something. Facebook has an infinite wall, and regularly when I scroll it just makes me jump somewhere else (and therefore I lose this one post that was looking interesting in the middle of those ads).

On the other hand, SourceHut may look "old", but it is so snappy, it's refreshing. And I find the UX really good. It just removes the glossy, useless UI stuff.

I'm going through his archived file on this Hugo and Nebula Anthology 1993 which contains his annotated A Fire Upon the Deep - https://archive.org/details/hugo_nebula_1993

So far I'm only at his intro.rtf file - it's a weird mixture of .rtf and .txts I'm not sure the rhyme or reason yet.

Regardless the intro.rtf first page is this which does a little dive into his process https://i.imgur.com/HuhBOAk.png

On an individual point of view, being easy on drug makes sense. We ought to have the right to do what we please to our bodies. But if you zoom out and look at the collective outcome, this is the sort of stuff that takes down millenium-old empires and keeps them down for centuries - China.

Being so bold to think that a good dose of superior modern intellectualism is going to make up for the fundamental flaws this introduce in a society, is a special type of belly button observationism.

As a society, we shouldn't stop our inquiry by looking at the personal tragedy that this causes on the individuals. The real long term issue is at the higher order level, where a society's fabric is torn apart by the debilitating nature of many drugs when deployed at scale on a society. Addictive debilitating drugs are a powerful force bringing a people down, taking others along with them.

Softness on drugs from a high minded perspective boils down to a decoupling mistake similar to the mispricing that carbon taxes attempt to correct. Drugs impose a high social cost that's hidden from sight when we just look at it from first-order individual right's perspective. But if we dig deeper, our collective individual rights are all put in jeopardy.

>but even apartment locks are being built from wood these days.

Are the apartments traditional wood-framed or cross-laminated timber? CLT is an entirely different beast that performs more like concrete or heavy timber in fire. I would put them more in the category of composite material.

I think CLT are already popular in parts of Europe, but in NA they are quite rare. They are usually only for very premium apartments or government buildings. Most wooden multi-unit buildings in NA are built the same way as houses and are quite flimsy. Though in the past couple years they tried to mitigate it with heavy stuffing of sound insulation to make everything sound more solid. One major difference is you don't hear footsteps as much. Older wooden buildings are a nightmare if you are sensitive to noise.

Pre-war houses (middle/upper-class ones) in NA are also quite solid. The structural quality difference between pre-war and post-war houses are night and day.

>> that Uber was a house of cards gaining market share by subsidizing rides with investor money

> they were

They no longer are, and they don't lose customers. So no house of cards, because they didn't collapse when subsidy disappeared.

> the criticism I heard was, at then-current prices, _profits_ wouldn't come

Turn out users don't seem to mind. Bookings is back to the pre-pandemic level. Food delivery is at the record.

> turns out they had to severely jack up prices to profit, proving such criticism correct

They are not more expensive compared to the competition. So no, the criticism isn't correct, unless you're saying consumers are stupid. If anything they were able to control cost and increase booking. People come to them despite the increased price. Keep in mind also that they didn't have major layoff like other tech companies.

I've heard that this is a generational difference: xers thought of free speech as being an essential value and to hell with the sanctimonious totalitarians who are telling you that you can't listen to rap music.

This gave way to accepting any and all behavior, social contact be damned. So social stigmas themselves are repressive and it doesn't matter if you're hurting your heath, that's your choice as an individual. La vie boheme!
Rebuilding the Replit Filetree for Superior Performance and Accessibility
> Where? Not in the US it’s not & it’s much more common to do so in the rest of the world too.

I can't find personally any examples in the US where regulations that limited access to certain foods was not met with an unholy backlash. Here are examples:
- https://crosscut.com/equity/2022/08/study-finds-seattles-con... (the point there is that the ordinance was very controversial)
- https://thefern.org/2022/12/how-food-became-a-weapon-in-amer... (this resource describes how/where food is controversial and has become part of the culture war; which means everything related to it is unnecessarily controversial)

Trying to find such examples, even lead in food is not regulated! [1] The FDA only has guidelines around lead and does sporadic testing. Fail those tests and the FDA only shames you, no jail, no required testing, no required compliance.

The example of the raw-milk-cheese is actually (according to this resourced) a poster-child of limiting access to certain foods as being contentious:

> There are many laws and regulations affecting the cheese and dairy industry in the United States. However, none is more contentious than the FDA-mandated pasteurization of all milk products for human consumption that was instituted in 1987. [2]

To be clear, food safety guidelines are very different from limiting access to food. This is a case though where access to certain foods was restricted and the cited resources states that as an example of the most contentious regulation.

I wondered as well what regulations have actually come from the FDA in the last 20 years and how were those received? It seems like the answer to that is the FDA has long been unpopular and structurely castrated to not be able to do anything regarding food [3]. Why that is the case, how it came to be - I could only speculate. My bets would be that it is easy to use the FDA as a punching bag, gutting it from the inside is certainly part and parcel to the 'small government' push that has been advocated of late [6]. It could also be part that the agency has fallen pray to corruption and is in the pocket of those it is there to regulate [4][7].

Looking at the list of 'milestones' from the FDA, published by the FDA itself, the list seems very underwhelming to me regarding anything food related going back 20 years, even 40 years (nutrition labels are one of the biggest items on that list; very underwhelming to me) [5]

Do you have examples where access to a given food was limited that was _not_ super contentious? I'm honestly not aware of any examples.

China is very good at replicating.
Criticizing Israel is a the fastest ticket to getting called an anti-Semite.
It's principles vs pragmatism. We have an example of one approach that works: Singapore. Mandatory execution of drug dealers, carried out three years after conviction, not three decades. That obliterates drug addiction as a societal ill.

On the other hand, the philosophical stance I agree with is that one human being does not have the right to dictate what another human being does with their own body, so long as they are an informed adult.

Our unwillingness to truly commit to our beliefs and values, whatever they are, gives us the worst of both approaches.
To be fair though, you don't really hear much about people selling their bodies (or other similar behavior, I.e. stealing from friends and family, etc) in order to obtain marijuana or alcohol.

This kind of behavior is primarily encountered when hard drugs are part of the equation.
All of big tech is checking phone numbers against sophisticated databases to determine if it is possible for an individual to have that number associated with their cell phone device. If it isn't a real mobile number you are not getting in.

This is why Amazon is still winning. The competition needs to compete better.
First successful replication of LK-99
>Internal markets in China are becoming increasingly robust

I think this fact is being severely understated, perhaps even denied by almost everyone in the west.

The way the US-China cold war has been playing out, the US and friends keeps closing doors only for China to go "Go right ahead, I don't have to play ball." and just succeed even harder on their own. Adding insult to injury is they then take that success and just wholesale buy the doors the US keeps closing.

A surefire way to lose Pax Americana is to become delusional that Pax Americana is winning when by all accounts it's losing and losing hard. I think this ship can still have its course corrected, because Pax Americana is better for us than Pax China, but not if we just keep up this kabuki theatre.

I was tinkering in that space in the mid-90s, and always felt the file format was a missed opportunity, and wasn't taking any of the lessons of HTML.

What I wanted (but never built) was a semantic file format, something like:

<wall direction=south>

PoE is used extensively in network deployments involving rather expensive hardware.

I understand the instinct to avoid it at this point, but I’m curious what happened in your case because I’ve never experienced issues.

I did work somewhere where someone fried equipment by incorrectly terminating a batch of Ethernet cables thereby sending voltage to the wrong place.
No, all other rates are effectively downstream of the fed rate.

It would take many more cracks in the edifice to make them subject to typical market pressures.
Rather than making the streets more pleasant to sleep on, I'd advocate providing actual housing for the homeless.
That story was already flagged to death 20 minutes ago.
That seems backwards to me. Sure, a GPU core is less general, but in terms of concurrent execution, memory bandwidth, and FLOPS I would expect hundreds to thousands of cores for all new GPU offerings. Apple’s double-digit GPU core counts for instance sound extremely understated.

It's more than that. Every element of western architecture, from sidewalks to office buildings, is devoid of art. Just look around. Our architecture is stereometric brutalism made of identical concrete slabs of plain gray appearance. Note, that it would cost nothing to imprint sidewalk slabs with some ornament when those slabs are still liquid concrete, but not only there is no desire for such art expression, the public would ridicule such an idea. It's telling that there is no such thing as American ornament or art style. Even clothes that westerners wear are plain bland lookalike. The western society lays squashed under the immense pressure of the utilitarian mindset, the same mindset that's creating its science.

I just did a bit of a dive into his annotated writings, I'm still like 1% deep but this was on literally page 2 of a page where he describes how he writes (which is in another comment if you're curious) https://i.imgur.com/m2nO2Am.png You're quite accurate
nerdbro contingent notwithstanding, tech actually ends up being a bit of a refuge for queer professionals - the ongoing joke about how much network infrastructure is maintained by trans furries is funny because of how accurate it is. When you can do your job remotely, and when most of your job is just crafting, not presenting yourself to the public - you can get away with a lot less social conformity. If not you, then perhaps your boss, or your coworker, or your intern.

… that said, I’ve gotta admit, this particular post doesn’t seem to feature much of interest.
zile is an attempt to create an equivalent to GNU Emacs using Lua instead of Lisp. There was an attempt to merge the GNU Guile engine into emacs to replace the elisp bytecode VM; Guile would have supported, in addition to elisp, Scheme and Javascript. But last I heard the project had stagnated or fizzled out entirely.

One might argue that VS Code is using Javascript in a similar manner to Emacs using elisp, but ... it just doesn't feel the same to me. I have very little experience with VS Code, though, so I might be mistaken.
obviously by spending money on it. but the US in general is vehemently against doing that.
> we often raise issues of justice and equity not to advance meaningful social causes but to generate positive attention for ourselves by denigrating others.

It's hard to differentiate between someone pretending to be morally outraged or offended and someone who genuinely is. If one really likes to get attention, and light "fires" around them, there is no real downside to pretending to be deeply offended or morally outraged. Who is going to prove it wrong? But look at all excitement and fireworks it can cause.
