With this merged attribute syntax, since each key-value combination is a separate symbol and since symbols are interned, doesn't this mean that all the attribute values (and not just the keys) end up interned?

Do Lisp implementations usually garbage-collect interned symbols when they're no longer used?
Had a good laugh just imagining this scenario, thanks.
Because not all content creators pad their videos. They often provide links to documentation. You can easily skip through the video and you have the option to watch them on 2x speed which is what I often do.
> For others, the attitude is more it's just a degree

Good for them. In reality, it's not just a degree, it's the final degree.

It's the degree you start working towards only after you get just a degree.
The problem with newer sensors and such is that they're not designed to handle the stress of going into space as well withstanding the greatly increased radiation exposure on Mars and the Moon. The missions to send stuff up into space is already expensive and so you'll have to reduce the chances of the gear you're sending up of failing. Unless you can afford to keep making trips to Mars until you get something there that works and then stays working long enough to do viable work.
Damn, the timeout for redirecting me to GitHub was too short for me to allow JavaScript in uBlock!

>What happens in your head when someone calls your name? Surely that's a feeling of identity?

I realize that someone is talking to me, but that has nothing to do with my identity. I doubt that that person and I have the same perception of who I am.

It's as if Apple's purpose is a "don't make me think" level of end user experience and trust, and their assumption is engineers will need to invest extra effort to enable that priority.

It's not just Apple. Developer-experience focused web frameworks make one time creation easier, at the expense of users who run it every time. The priority is upside down.

Thankfully, for hardware, wallet-share shows there's money to be made from giving users a curated experience at the cost of nominal incremental developer effort.

And the resurgence of SSR (new old hotness?) shows the same can hold true on the tech stack.
Much of this has to do with scale. In small communities, interactions are more likely to skew positive, meaningful, and desired. The discussions that rise to the top are those that are most interesting and relevant to the community.

In giga-networks like Twitter, you might get some vague sense of a belonged-to community, but the boundaries are fuzzy at best and when posts find their way beyond those boundaries, context is lost and you end up with scores of randos whose full-time job is seemingly to surf the service searching for posts to clout farm with by either replying to them with their entirely uninformed (often inflammatory) opinion or quote-tweet with similarly uninformed ridicule, which can turn disastrous for the quoted poster if it goes viral. The posts that rise to the top are the ones that are the most flame-baity and controversial. It's a much more negative experience overall.
It is a fun exercise to think of all the interesting ways the 2nd order effects of these feedback hacks can be weaponized in office politicks.

I see these as two separate things. If you're trying to make money as a journalist, yeah, you need something more than "I compiled a few comments from social media", and that kind of story drives me crazy for how low-effort it is.

However, if you're just writing a personal blog like this, then taking a comment that you found interesting and replying to it in a long-form blog post is participating in the wider community. It's not that much different than replying to someone else's blog post, the only difference is that the original source is short-form instead of long-form.

Treatment is in fact a real challenge. Cryptococcus isolates "in the wild" have a relatively high frequency of azole resistance alleles already (azoles are what you give someone for a typical "yeast" infection), and azole resistances arises relatively quickly in patients in both patients and animal models of disease. Coupled with this is the fact that fungi are eukaryotes, and hence share most of their core cell and molecular biology with your own cells. Hence treatments that specifically target the fungal cell with little toxicity to your own cells are hard to come by.

Note that last year the WHO released a list of "fungal priority pathogens" based on criteria related to "unmet research and development needs and perceived public health importance." Cryptococcus is at the top of this list.

That makes sense. My VPN testing affirms it. Houston node doesn't work, Atlanta node does. I guess someone decided my IP range warranted extra attention. Though that still doesn't quite square with what I'm seeing; it's feels like the CAPTCHA is broken.

All I have to base that on is when I click on the checkbox sometimes no images load and it checks and then unchecks. Sometimes I seem to get the "hard set" though I think I missed part of the boat or something. I've been able to run through enough fails that I'd expect to get the hard set but don't. Which makes me think it isn't actually working right...

I'm calling the "hard set" those images they give you that are super extra grainy.

I'm almost curious enough to see what I can divine from inspecting their network requests but I have a hunch they have a vested interest in making that annoying.

Or maybe there are way more CAPTCHAs to click through than I'm thinking. To anyone: What is the highest number of CAPTCHAs you've clicked through and actually got a site, any site, to load at the end? I'm legit curious at this point.
> They could have pivoted to Android earlier.

I thought about that. They could have been really competitive with some of the early Droid phones, which were really what brought Android to a lot of people in the early days.

But I also remember that a lot of those companies really struggled to reach profitability with their Android phone lines. It was a hypercompetitive space with really low margins.

Maybe it would have worked if combined with their security reputation and with BBM.
This is a relatively recent phenomena, w.r.t. the confederate flag.

It's still not an interesting approach unless it interested you... There are no positive sounding meaningless adjectives because positive and meaningless are conflicting attributes.

The list is mostly for orienting around priorities. In a survival situation, what is truly most important to do next? Is it worth looking for water when you don’t have a shelter yet?
That perception is what we need collectively to fight. It turns a world of makers into passive consumers and we’re worse off for it. There’s been a couple examples, where indeed that was the perception, and the products ultimately did get discontinued and leave millions of units to rot. Such a waste.
I'm a chemist who should've went for Informatica (computer science) or Ingegneria Informatica (computer engineering) too, I can relate.

While I don't think that a degree would've added much to my professional life as I learned what I wanted/needed I can't but say that chemistry gave me even less (aside of being generally good at theoretical and practical sciences).
Best definition of "content" I ever heard: https://youtu.be/kHe4wwF9O6Q?t=149

"content is a commodity that fills social media feeds so we can be sold as a collection of preferences [...] attention but not understanding, engagement but not exploration"

Every time I hear "content creator" I perceive it as Styrofoam. Filler used to convey a product.

I've personally found AI to be a great help whenever I'm diving into a topic that I'm less familiar with. Recently I used it to help me prep for an interview as well. My partner uses it to help explain STEM concepts that she didn't cover in her schooling.

I do wonder how far away we are from an actual Young Lady's Illustrated Primer. Three years ago I'd say we were 50 years away. Now it feels more like 10.
It's all ether screaming mate. You scream into a black hole and hope someone (or something) responds. The only reason people continue to do it is because numbers go up. If numbers don't go up, people leave.

I'm not knocking it, I do it too. We are all desperate for connection and have a desire to be heard. We don't even care if it's real or not, we just don't want to feel alone. We are so desperate for connection, in fact, that we will create work that others profit from just so we don't feel alone.

It's why we are talking to each other right now. We could be doing anything else right now, but here we are. Desperate to be heard. Clicking refresh. Wanting to feel validated. Even if one of us is a bot, does it matter? The feeling is real.
> Centralized ether screaming will always be better than decentralized ether screaming because ego reinforcement from counters is a "more is always better" kind of thing

This reads like you pretty much described the essence of why Twitter is kinda terrible: "ego reinforcement" is about as far as you can get from engaging with a community.
My friend and I made something similar a few years ago as a college hackathon project - it features automatic scene transition detection and a rough editor before publishing the final results.

> The strength of such an argument depends on whether the small step really is likely to lead to the effect.

This does not fall into the fallacy aspect as it is already happening, groups are already being exploited for ulterior motives to control thought. Part of having a background in security research leads one to detect vulnerabilities. This is a gaping vulnerability.

> With all due respect, innocent people are dying because certain individuals incite violence against them.

Let us be clear that inciting violence is criminal and not considered protected speech.

> Would you be okay if your friends or family died in a shooting from an individual who consumed a particular class of content?

Less people are dying today than have historically died from hateful conduct. You cannot crush hate out of a society with censorship. Driving hateful behavior underground only emboldens the extremists. Only through education and the ability for an individual to observe how consensus genuinely rejects their hate can you change such attitudes.

You also cannot defeat an assumed logical fallacy with a different one, you are appealing to extremes when you take into account statistics and history.
I find it weird that there's no way to specify a future date/time with respect to a specific timezone, e.g. Europe/London.

I don't think it's unreasonable to want to be able to specify a meeting in London, on July 1st 2030, at 6pm local time - no matter what happens to UK timezones between now and then.

The UK currently uses Z+00:00 from November to March, and daylight savings of Z+01:00 from April to October (roughly)[0]. But it's possible that between now and 2030 they might adopt Central European (Summer) Time[1], or retry British Double Summer Time[2], or scrap daylight savings entirely. Therefore, what happens to 6pm with respect to any given epoch might vary wildly between now and 2030.

But it would be nice to set a calendar event for "6pm London time", whatever London time happens to be when the event rolls around. But there's no standardised interoperable way to say "2030-07-01 18:00:00 Europe/London".

Good tip! You can also watch on 2x speed and put it back to 1x or 1.5x if you want to focus on a specific step.
> Can you give an example of a lefty state government aggressively pushing for censorship?

From the article:

"For example, California presents its Age-Appropriate Design Code as a privacy regulation. Yet, the law imposes obligations on websites to deploy algorithms, designs, and features in a certain way or face fines. Of course, algorithms, features, and designs are the means by which websites develop, display, and disseminate speech."
> when he spoke the words that day, "And if you don't fight like hell, you're not going to have a country anymore," his intent was to incite the violence that followed.

Is that right? IANAL, but I would have thought that intent is immaterial; if it's forbidden to incite violence, and you incited it, then what you meant to do is neither here nor there.

Intent seems to be a difficult area of law; judges and juries are not telepathic. I don't think there are many crimes that I can commit, for which I would be acquitted if I said I didn't mean to do it.

I always enjoy reading her posts. She must be an outstanding coworker.

I have also found that some people are experts at "weaponized compliments."

They can give a compliment that is an insult, or an attack.

"That's great, how you roughened the edges." when talking about a graphic asset with obvious mistakes.

"I always told Bob how great you are, at that." This is the "stolen valor" compliment. It insinuates that you could not have done it without their help.

etc.

In some cases, it's completely accidental, so we need to think carefully about our compliment.

The problem is the less notable people. It is not the people from news organisations who storm the Capitol.

They alread believe the fake pictures of Trump
Current has a habit of turning into release. And I am probably reading way too much into this, I have so special insight in the inner workings of the openbsd project. But if the people digging around in the filesystem code don't want it around while they work, I have no real hope for it to go back in when they are done.
Amazon often combines separate orders for shipping so this approach wouldn't work unless you waited for the first order to ship before placing the second.

You could post to it for free, but it was extremely clunky.
Mastodon is like that. Then you have Kbin and Lemmy which are more Reddit-like, and Pixelfed which is supposedly similar to Instagram.
An example is in the original article:

"For example, California presents its Age-Appropriate Design Code as a privacy regulation. Yet, the law imposes obligations on websites to deploy algorithms, designs, and features in a certain way or face fines. Of course, algorithms, features, and designs are the means by which websites develop, display, and disseminate speech."
> Im a big fan of everything he does

I really hope "everything" is an exaggeration.
In general emulated code should only be able to interact with the emulated machine, not the host machine running the emulator. But there's no specific sandboxing and there have been cases of bugs in emulators that allowed specially crafted roms to execute code on the host (https://scarybeastsecurity.blogspot.com/2016/11/0day-exploit...)
How could that work? A consumer would be required to build the firmware and flash it to the product themselves?
They use modulation tricks to get multiple inputs on one audio channel. Sound-cards with more than 4 audio channels are not cheap, and if you gang multiple sound cards together you end up with clock drift.

If you want more than 4 channels that don't drift from each other with consumer hardware, then you'll need to multiplex (And indeed, they offer non-multiplexing 4-channel options).
Potential RFC idea?
There was. It was horrible.

Having worked in the semi industry, I can fathom a guess: It's a spaghetti mess of cascading Perl scripts that parse the Verilog/VHDL design files, with their development going back 20+ years, full of comments like "don't touch this line because it breaks another line, nobody knows why", and maintained by a team where a gray-beard "Gandalf" engineer wearing an ATI t-shirt, has most of the deep-down low-level knowledge on how to un-fuck them whenever they get fucked, pardon my french.

Two things I’ve learned after 15 years of working starting during the GFC:

- It’s counterintuitive, but during your saving years you’re better off if the market’s doing poorly because everything’s on sale. If you’re retired you want the opposite.

- Frequently looking at your net worth is a big distraction. Just focus on the things you can control, like your savings rate and expenses.
It is only kept on the device.

45 hours of watching is not the hard part, it is actually learning and understanding and exercising.

I've followed few MIT courses (mostly on algebra, category theory and some more CS-related) and while a video took me 1 hour, the actual amount of time around it (writing down the important things, summarizing, exercising, finding answers about the topics touched) was much more.

Between twice and 4 times the amount.

On that front in-person education has definitely two benefits: you have peers in your same situation with whom you can discuss the topics and obviously access to teachers and their assistants.
you act like parental consent wasn’t listed as a requirement. though it may not be broadly recognized as such, that requirement is an admission that it is foolish to hand a child access without guidance.

you know, like in the form of a parent. parental guidance. which starts with parental consent.

so in other words: it depends.

it’s grossly irresponsible to treat a hammer as inherently dangerous.

One man's hate speech is another man's freedom of expression. Who will arbitrate the definition of hate speech?

What if you don't agree with their definition? What if saying you don't agree with their definition also gets labeled as hate speech by the arbitrator?

It's a slippery slope...
Laziness is poor framing. Can the masses be "lazy" or is it pointless moralizing in the face of unfettered propaganda and behaviour manipulation?

That is an extraordinarily unhelpful simplification of why WeChat is popular.

It's popular because it's functional, has strong network effects, and people don't care about centralization or second-order effects.

Now, in the US, we see it as the role of regulators to break up unfair monopolies, and even "fair" monopolies get a lot of scrutiny. In China, the gov doesn't really complain because they can piggyback on WeChat as a control mechanism. But the government is not why WeChat is popular. It's popular because it's good!

in the immediate, effective sense. it works and people use it.
to be clear, I fully agree with this and your broader point. It's the specific verbiage in your first example that I think is problematic, mainly because it feels disingenuous and insincere at best, manipulative at worst. Which is highly unfortunate because I think the vast majority of the time the motives are pure!
