These cars would be privately owned and follow the whims of shareholders. We all know how well that goes.

These issues with public transit are correctable. Stops could be added in between, infrastructure made more accessible… Handicap accessibility is a mandate for public transit. For a private car fleet, it’s an afterthought and token gesture.

Also, the public transit network is already there and works. Why not invest in that instead while also encouraging active Mobility by walking or cycling instead of more cars?

I still fail to see how what they’re demanding is idiotic. You might not agree with it, or it might make you uncomfortable about your transportation choices, but it’s the opposite of idiotic.
Have used Tobii as well and they are very accurate with a bit of calibration.
Yes, the ALS/disability angle is noble. Viewed another way, the entire human race is afflicted by the disability of not having access to eye-tracking (and other) technologies. Paul Graham and co. are also invested in companies that are going to be highly enabled and boosted by the growth of eye-tracking and related technologies. I don't view his statement of motivation related to ALS as insincere, I just also notice that it's accessible, easily understandable, and also in line with other aspects of Paul's motivation (and that's a good thing).

I would also recommend Jean-Dominique Bauby's Le Scaphandre et le Papillon to anyone interested in this topic. Typing using eye movements was used in that book in a slow, inefficient manner. In the book's case, the question one should ask is, was his UI paced at the exact correct speed? I was and still am deeply emotionally moved by what the author was able to accomplish and convey. I am unsure if a faster keyboard would have made a meaningful and positive difference in that particular case, to the author's quality of life. I'll need to give that book another read with that question in mind.

Happily, I expect eye tracking to find fascinating, novel and unexpected applications. As others have stated, UI/UX design is an interesting part of this puzzle. For example, if you ask an LLM to output short branches of text and have a writer look at the words that he wants to convey. It's definitely blurring the line between reading and writing. Myself, finding writing to be a tactile exercise, I think that emotional state comes into play. That's what I'm interested in. Yes, can you literally read someone's eyes and tell what they are thinking?
You mentioned getfirefox.com and while that was and is the official site, I remember a time (maybe?) when that was registered to a third-party fan of Firefox to promote it who handed it over to Mozilla. That said… I cannot find any evidence to back up this claim after a small bit of Google searching, so I might be wrong. I definitely remember a time after the rebranding was announced but before the full 1.0 launch where the moz website didn’t have an easy or obvious landing page for Firefox because so much website energy was still reserved for the open sourced Mozilla communications suite ;-) It always felt a bit new and edgy to recommend Firefox (Phoenix? Firebird?) back in the old days. Weirdly, there was a time when it was new and edgy to recommend Chrome too. Now it’s probably new and edgy to recommend… ad-blocking? Edge Read Aloud? It was easier when IE provided a common enemy and when Chrome wasn’t the only choice for low performance Android devices, or Safari on iOS.

Re third party sites, it’s likely getfirefox was actually always Mozilla’s (they would have known about the name first, of course) so maybe I’m thinking of “getfirebird.com” or something else like that. It’s even possible that I just assumed it was third-party because it redirected to the main Mozilla site for the longest time. And it really probably doesn’t matter anyway, just a digression. :)
That's true, and a very good counter argument. But, bear in mind, with fixed function hardware I was assuming no lights were involved.
I doubt anyone is shooting birds on power lines with a rifle. I mean maaaybe, most likely they hit the bird and some pellets get lodged in. They will get stuck in those large birds for sure. I wouldn't doubt the birds are being shot elsewhere and then just return to the power line and either die from the gunshot or a collision because of difficulty flying.
We don't even do that to people that shoot other people in a lot of cases.

>In July, while renting the car, I apparently caused a minor scratch on the bumper, according to Turo, and was required to pay for the damage.

>be aware that even when you remove your credit cards from such services, the information might still be stored and could be used without your authorization.

IF you review the rental contract for the car in question, you'll note that it has language where you authorize them to charge the credit card used for the rental for ancillary charges. That being your American Express card.

So, even if you'd removed that card from your account, that card is still authorized for charges on the rental agreement.

N.B. IANAL.
For a distribution that is supposed to be "arch but stable" that would be weird. I suspect there is something more going on than that.

Maybe they start out on an rc after install because new install might equal new hardware?
It does, even when navigating the web.
Good talk, however, I recommend people watch Andrew Kelley's talk[1] first. His talk has clearly had a major influence on Carbon's compiler design, plus I think Andrew's talk is a lot more practical for those not in the compiler space.

Last week, I forced myself to move from Sublime Text, which I used professionally for a decade, to VSCode. Underwhelming community output bogged down by fundamental limitations, such as very limited extension UI API, ultimately results in a second rate experience compared to VSCode, where all the new cool experimental extensions appear earlier, if at all. You lose productivity because the community size didn't reach critical mass necessary to produce as much good extensions as VSCode. And I can finally perform search and replace without manually saving edits in dozens of files.

Reducing the probability of every undesired outcome is maybe too optimistic for the first day :-)

You can reduce the probability of every outcome you can initially think of, plus the ones you find out along the way. As time passes you will converge to a situation that is strongly dominated by the desired outcomes.

The central point of the article is complexity enlarges the undesired outcome space, even if introduced the the intention of reducing it. Perhaps this is less clear than desired.

See, that’s the problem with these type of events, they try to correlate something good, innocent, and fun (cycling and being environment friendly), with another thing that is startling, appalling, and shameless (public nudity) that the majority of people won’t accept it, the goal from the organizers is obviously to normalize the second part, however, usually what will happen is the good part will be associated with the shameless one, next time you promote cycling or anything to do with entertainment, most will associate you are supporting the other side.. consequently, the people who are against public nudity will do anything to thwart it, including the attack on the whole event, the good and the controversial sides.. absolutely unnecessary to have such events, or just don’t mix them up that way.
Same goes for you idiots
No one that's going to the additional effort of finding and participating in this type of school is going to let their kid be a legitimate bully. That level of parental involvement is what's lacking from a bully's life.
Wikipedia has a pretty extensive article on the topic, as usual:

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

Short version: Probably aircraft, but anything that can get aloft and dump aerosols (e.g. SO2) into the upper atmosphere.

The scary thing is it's all quite achievable and isn't even that expensive or complex.

Regarding the issue of speed, the wikipedia article even notes one of the benefits as:

> Speed: A common argument is that stratospheric aerosol injection can take place quickly, and would be able to buy time for carbon sequestration projects such as carbon dioxide air capture to be implemented and start acting over decades and centuries.

And ironically, we don't even have to worry that much about side-effects since the effects of atmospheric aerosols are relatively temporary.

But, again: a) doesn't help with ocean acidification, which threatens entire foodchains, and b) gives an easy out to not do the hard and necessary work of cutting down on CO2 emissions.

That said, at this point, I would make a very sizable bet that a major country or countries will engage in some type of geoengineering within the next, oh... 10 years at the outside? The dangers of allowing global warming to continue to run away are just too high for some nation to not do it, prove it, and pave the way for others to follow.
If one remembers that the subconscious makes up approx 80% of the brain[0], there is a lot of problem solving potential in switching off the conscious and "backgrounding" problem solving to the subconscious.

Which in a way, the author is indirectly describing. Engaging in activities that are "automatic" (e.g. showering, long walks) also allows the conscious to drift and frees the subconscious to interrupt the conscious with some solutions. Hence the best ideas under the shower.

Taking a break from the problem can sometimes be the faster way to a solution, illogical for modern bosses who believe only working on the problem will solve it.

[0]=if you don't believe this then try to consciously pick up a cup of coffee and drink from it. The coordination of muscles, swallowing, and everything besides is the subconscious. The conscious, if at all, had the thought "I want to drink coffee" or it might just have been a feeling between messaging and eating a breakfast toast!
>An empirical determination of the length of the stadion was made by Lev Vasilevich Firsov, who compared 81 distances given by Eratosthenes and Strabo with the straight-line distances measured by modern methods, and averaged the results. He obtained a result of about 157.7 metres

Sounds like there are other lengths given by Eratosthenes which could be used to tell what he meant by one stadion.

Definitely not modern Linux, when I got Slackware 2.0 in 1995's Summer, I owned a Pentium 75Mhz, with 8MB RAM, Trident card capable of 1024x768 (X could only handle 800x600 on it), IDE CD-ROM and HDD.
In 100k years there’s much less need to process it anycase, the waste is very front-heavy in its radioactive harmfulness. Of course it’s still chemically harmful later on, but it does not differ from other heavy metals and is leagues better disposed of than all the lead, cadmium, arsenic, and other such stuff we have laying around (which does not decay at all).
We shouldn't have nice things because some sub-10% portion of the population might not be able to use them is the dumbest argument. You can have public transit and driverless cars.

The author seems like they have never used Visual Studio or Rider to its greatest extent.

The Unix equivalent of a single Visual Studio install and all its functionality is

- clang

- CMake

- gdb (which is pretty lousy compared to VS' debugger)

- valgrind

- perf

- some record-replay tool (maybe perf?)

- system package manager

- language server protocol tool

- clang-format

- clang-tidy

And a whole other host of refactoring tools that just aren't present or possible in the author's tool of choice, Vim.

Sure, one could do complicated editing with indecipherable incantations in Vim, but I spend most of my time thinking, not typing—ironically the same argument that the author uses. I don't need a faster, more to-the-metal tool. I like the abstractions an IDE provides. Working with Git is immensely simpler in an IDE than it is in the command-line. Autocomplete, refactoring, and go-to-definition functionality is superb. All these help me think and write better code.
I have a subscription to Google One (which is what you mean; Google Workspaces isn't a subscription, it's a suite of apps.)

It has some good perks. I am, however, petrified of going over the "free tier" storage limit, because if I do lose, or cancel, that One membership, then my Gmail will be completely disabled until I can bail out enough storage to go back under the 15GiB again. I think that's an extremely undesirable failure mode indeed.

That being said, searching for "unsubscribe" is definitely a genius shortcut, and I'm going to try it and see how it works for me. However, I also have enough personal correspondence over the years, with significant attachments that I'd need to scrutinize as well.
As a human person you have a right to education, regardless of whatever your parents might happen to think. School is there, in part, to ensure kids are exposed to thoughts, experiences, people, even those that parents might find objectionable.

A daughter of fundamentalist Muslim parents has the right to have an education, even if they think girls should not be educated.

A girl whose parents are "anti woke liberal gender ideology" still nonetheless has the right to learn how her own body works, how to protect herself, among a thousand other things.

Etc etc.
Not sure that really encompasses the way things work. For example, people doing "rocket scientist" stuff under one government, however their government gets overthrown fairly unexpectedly.

Maybe Egypt or similar would be examples?
Yeah, using basic geometry to calculate the size of a star from it's distance and the size of the dot it makes in your telescope, doesn't give sensible answers when the size of the dot is due to quantum diffraction (an Airy disc). And since that's named after a guy who lived in the 1800's, you can guess how much the ancients knew about it.

For instance, if you're talking about the Instagram Explore page or the Tiktok For you page, its all marketing. Literally nothing is real, everything is made to maximize engagement.

If you're talking about your followers who you know in person, that will be 80% authentic at least.

Pardon the presumption, but based on the name, probably a man of an Islamic tradition, which values children as blessings and gifts from God.

I have seen an alarming rise in propaganda in Western media, which depict motherhood and parenthood as drudgery and a chore, a thankless job that nobody wants anymore. Pregnancy and childbirth are depicted as the worst thing that can happen to you, try to avoid it, but ugh here's my horror story about barely surviving it so I can warn you away. Children shown as burdens, as little terrors, as "another mouth to feed" that definitely parents can't afford two or one, much less a whole "litter full".

It seems like there is a movement bent on doing anything it can to prevent people from reproducing or forming strong, committed and faithful families (and they have plenty of other strategies I don't need to mention here), and frankly, it's working a treat currently! Good job!

You could focus on insulation instead. The sun rays come in at a shallow angle anyway, so I'm guessing the heating benefit you'd be getting isn't all that large. With insulation on the other hand you have to heat less and keep it inside.
Yeah Set has been dear to me since I was about 5 years old, and I remember bringing it into class for "favorite board game day" in 1st grade (so when I was 6). Really surprised the kids didn't like it!

There's a LOT of math you can do with it too, starting with some modular arithmetic. and I guess just the idea of abstracting the attributes to 0, 1, and 2. Then you can do a little bit of group theory and how the game is Z3^4 (iirc this is the right notation? been a while), 4 copies of Z3. And there are similar card games that represent other games that you can print out cards for if they're getting excited about group theory, so you can talk about axioms of groups, and how the games represent the groups, and why it makes sense.

Also you can introduce a bit of programming too and explain like how would you teach a computer how to play this game using the invariant property that a definition of a set is that sum c_i = 0 for all i 0 -> 3. and you can also easily generalize the game to other lengths by adding additional traits (background color of the card to add one) or fewer (remove bg color of the symbol).

Anyway yeah this game is the best.
This sounds fine but what is this doing that a bash script + cronjob doesn't? Isn't all of this functionality available in CLI tools (and in fact you're likely already using them, e.g. making calibre convert the HTML newsletter to .mobi).

I am assuming it would completely prevent ads (so no need to figure out how to filter/block them) as the name of this field suggests that it might be used by YouTube to figure out if someone has a premium subscription or not.
