Further more, why did this ever have to be written of as some sort of revelation?

Of course advertisers, not just on Youtube, but pretty much everywhere track children's interests as well as adults. Someone said recently, "the antichrist has already arrived, and he works, in a suit and tie, in advertising" which while hyperbolic is surprisingly fitting. Mass tracking (which is a form of surveillance) for the uses of taking advantage of weaknesses in a human being (impulse control, gotchas, perceived "need", etc.) to reap monetary rewards at the expense of the individual, whether adult or adolescent, whether intelligent, or mentally handicapped... which may result in a percieved or otherwise degredation of QoL. It is immoral, not just unethical.

Most "tracking" scripts aren't age gated, most advertisers don't care, every day I grow to hate them and their institutions more and more. I would say that at this point, not having adblockers, and blocking tracking scripts is a form of enabling these parasites. Which, i believe (with strong conviction) that there is an argument to say that enabling such behavior without contest is unethical at the very least bordering on immoral.

And while humidifiers can suffer from moisture buildup next to the sensor which you can fix in a couple of minutes with a handheld fan, that shouldn't be the case with dehumidifiers.

Sorry but it sounds like you just need to get a new one. Hopefully it's still under warranty. Your unit isn't representative of what's being sold these days, it's just flat-out defective.

(I assumed you were talking about a difference of 15-20 percentage points, which is more common to see, although more in humidifiers than in dehumidifiers.)

Emojis and emoticons in any serious piece of communication are simply unprofessional and insincere. Do not use them, unless your intent is actually to piss your recipient off.

This is a neat idea! I had a similar idea but with github repos instead of gists - it'd be possible to use tags to just check out blogs you're interested in. I built mine as a neovim plugin rather than a standalone site though. Gists definitely make it easier for shorter blogs.

My dehumidifier isn't on the list but I believe maybe it should be. Several times now it gets into a state where it's very loud, abnormally hot and it turns out the compressor is stuck ON even though the fan is not running. Even powering it down (with the button) will not turn off the compressor.

Unplugging it and plugging back in will sometimes fix the problem. Looked into it and it turns out the power relay is getting stuck in the on position. I have to open the dehumidifier completely to get access to the relay and then tap on it with something hard. This has worked to unstick it, at least so far.

I think maybe this relay isn't up to its task. I was curious about replacing it with something similar but couldn't find anything remotely as small for switching 120 VAC mains power.

For reference, my dehumidifer is a Toshiba TDDP7011ES2.
The relay in question is a Sanyou SFK-112DMP.

I dunno, maybe this will help someone out there figure out what's going on.

Is this article a true story? It is completely legal to send cash in the mail (the US mail, at least). I can't imagine it would be illegal to send cash by UPS, either, even if the carrier does not allow it:
https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/sending-cash-u-s-mail-ille...

The story was certainly heartwarming but this lack of fact-checking makes me question everything in the piece.
For starters, not everybody has a supportive set of parents that would encourage their daughters to go and play chess, which is still - unfortunately - seen as a 'boys thing'.

The Botez sisters are probably the most visible advocates of women chess right now and that's because their father was very supportive.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alexandra_Botez

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrea_Botez

But they already had their share of sexism and misogyny directed at them.

And that gets us to point 2: even if you have a supportive family, the kind of crap you will encounter might well put you off your chess career. Nobody likes to be harassed.

So then it becomes a numbers game: out of 1,000,000 men and 1,000,000 women say the original distribution of the talents required for chess are evenly distributed, pretty much all of the men interested in the game will find support and their chances of being harassed are slim. Most of them will rise to their level of competence. But for the women it is different. The vast bulk will never make it through the first filter, and if they do they will have to run a gauntlet to get to the point where they have enough of a rating to get some visibility and more support in the form of coaching. So only a fraction of them will rise to their level of competence. And that fraction is so incredibly small (about 1:50) that the chances of throwing out the female world champion approach certainty. 98% of the female talent in chess never gets enough of a chance. They either lack early support or they end up being discouraged later on by incidents.

Does that explain it?
Oh man, the Free Application for Federal Student Aid (FAFSA) form was pretty brutal too for getting federal aid for college. My parents intended to (and indeed did) help me with paying for college, and their income was very modest by FAFSA's own standards. But my parents had a decent chunk of money for their own (also modest) retirement, and FAFSA plugs that into the "expected family contribution" which significantly affects your eligibility for aid.

I guess I could kinda see some argument for that, like "because your parents have secured some financial stability for their own retirement, they should be able to contribute more towards college now," but it still seems kinda odd that a kid from a family with the same income but less saved for retirement would get more financial aid.

> CEO sets the vision. Without vision, even perfect execution is pointless.

The chairman of the board on behalf of the shareholders sets the vision. The CEO along with the other C-suite executives executes the vision. But in this case, both the chairman, ceo, cto, founder and majority voting shareholder is elon musk. So you are ultimately right.

You can tell the elon-hate has gone insane when they can't bring themselves to give elon any credit for spacex.

Besides, even if gynne shotwell deserves all the credit for spacex's success, elon deserves credit for hiring her in the first place so elon wins again.
We also see the styles of our parents as “looking old,” but surprise most people don’t change their style after 30.

Men from the past look old because they leave the ring of hair and don’t shave bald.

For Gen Z/Alpha, shaved bald is what will look old (vs. what a lot of younger bald men do now which is a short crop leaving the hairline visible but not long).

Repeat this pattern endlessly and you have the history of fashion.

My guess is that they personally prefer to own 100%, but for various reasons around who specifically owns the remaining shares (e.g. senior employees or friendly firms) they don't want to force them to sell.

> But, wait a minute, Undefined Behaviour is a runtime property. Parsing isn't a runtime activity.

So it turns out you're wrong here. UB can also be intentional extension points, and these aren't implementation-defined behaviors because honestly I don't want to track down 25-year-old documents to figure out what's going on here. This use of UB in the standard has diminished greatly in the past few decades (although there are still remnants of it kicking around, e.g., the lexer UB), and the extra focus on nasal demon aspects of UB from ~15 years ago really obscures this nature of UB.

One annoying thing about UB is that it is actually several different concepts with the same name. In addition to the aforementioned use, it can also refer to behavior that can go haywire in ways really impossible to constrain (buffer overflow is the classical example here). Or it can refer to intentional optimization instructions (e.g., restrict and strict aliasing). Or it can refer to axioms you need to have hold or else you have no clue how to think about semantics (pointer provenance, data races). Or, incorrectly but depressingly common, lay people can use it to refer to what the specification considers implementation-defined behavior (e.g., size of data types). Working out which kind of UB people are referring to when they use the term is frustrating at best, and frequently people are using one kind of UB to justify how all kinds should be handled. (Annoyingly, some of those people are committee members.)

> That attitude would harm the public space, where standards to discuss current and new issues would be really helpful.

Actually there's more evidence that the public space could not exist without some sort of floor:

https://www.cambridge.org/core/elements/abs/evolution-morali...

https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/abs/pii/S01918...

MFT is highly debatable in terms of if it's the right definition of the floor, but it logically tracks that for society to evolve to the point where you can have useful discourse at all, individuals must be arrive at some floor for themselves.

> You also think the choice of slavery is proof of people falling below your personal moral floor. To me, and I think to the OP, it's proof that even questions with obvious moral answers are beyond empiricism. Which is the point you're missing.

You're confusing slaves and slavery: Slavery is complex enough that I will engage someone who wants to moralize it (after all, is it modern or historical? specific race? is debt-based slavery included? what about war? etc.).

But a slave is "a human owns another". I arrogantly consider it not worth my time to convince someone whether "a human owning another" is good or bad.

> So we need to know on what basis we arrive at the obvious answer slavery is bad, because the we can use that basis for more complex matters.

Nothing I said precludes logic to examining slavery: "Slavery increase the number of humans owned by other humans, so slavery is bad"

From there one might logically say: "Well what about economic cases, where technically I don't own you?", and then the logical next step might be to consider "at what level of penalties for a debtor does it start to become owned by the creditor?"

I'm a curious enough person that I'd accept discomfort to ensure my floor is low enough to allow deeply messy moral debate... but on the same coin, that reinforces my confidence that the precious few conversations that do get swept under it were probably not valuable. As always ymmv...

> Shutting each other down just for talking is authoritarian, and the thing about that is if the guy on top is your guy that's great, but you have no control over who the guy on top is.

Deciding not to convince someone of my point of view isn't shutting them down. This feels like a very messy attempt to force some sort of pro-authoritarian projection onto me :/
> It’s not about you or anything you did. It’s a “them” problem.

It’s much easier to consider a conflict a “them” problem. That’s most people’s default. I’ve heard thousands of people complain about “them”, but they were never being abused or bullied.

Instead you probably want to default to a conflict resolution attempt, or two or three, or whatever your tolerance is with that person. If those don’t work, then it’s an “us” problem. You tried your best, which is all you can control but the result isn’t working for you and that’s OK. The other person doesn’t have to change and neither do you, but you don’t need to work at it anymore if you’ve given all you’re willing to give.

I only had to do it for several minutes, long enough to have it boot up successfully and copy off the most important data over wifi. I do remember getting a bit dizzy during the procedure. The laptop was a pretty light PowerBook G4 from 2003.

It's purely anecdotical, but I'm convinced that Google CAPTCHA (which I don't see more often only because I rarely use Google Search) punishes me for being fast. I can half-ass it or do a perfect score, but if I'm done with it in less than 3 - 5 seconds, I'll only get another puzzle as a reward.
Experience tells us that any time a company feels they can make more money by doing something, legal or not, they will probably do that thing. The less likely it is they'll be caught doing it, the more likely they are to do it.

There's no way that Google isn't collecting massive amounts of children's data.
The fact that we force children to sign up for Google accounts and use chromebooks in schools sickens me.

I see zero reason to trust Google when they say they aren't using the data they collect to make inferences about our children. It would take a whistleblower (and one with extraordinary access within Google's org) for us to have clear picture of all the ways that data is kept and abused. I'm not sure what the solution to that is though. Random unannounced independent audits? Since they're likely there already, maybe we can have the government officials who work in the Google equivalent of Room 614A (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Room_641A) keep an eye on them?
Overcommunication isn't necessarily a bad way to handle that type of interaction, either. Trying to get things into a recorded medium helps, if nothing else, when you look back on the interactions and find that you communicated what you'd do, did what you said, communicated what you did, and the other person is unreasonable, you have evidence (at least for yourself) that you're being reasonable and the other person isn't.

Then you can take whatever appropriate actions after that. Sometimes that's get yourself out of the situation where you work or live with them. Sometimes it's decide that while this person is unreasonable to deal with, the rest of the situation makes it reasonable for you to stay, at least for the moment.
