It's not just about legal system being abused. I would like to see casteism dissolved from the world. Grew up in India and I was taught to be caste agnostic. I have seen my parents being friends with and working with people of all castes. I grew up pretty liberal. This bill is trying to attack on a problem that does not exist on the same scale as any of the other discriminatory issues that we ever talk about here in America. We are creating a problem out of our imagination. The kind of arguments that I see from people on internet including this forum are hilarious. People say that The people of highcast would say vegetarians only for the room advertisement or someone can be denied of a marriage proposal based on their caste. That's all really stupid talk. Being a vegetarianism is a global phenomena. Just because I'm a Hindu doesn't mean I am trying to discriminate against someone who eats non vegetarian because they are low caste and I'm not a low caste (again in perception only). For a matter like marriage, it is extremely personal and people are allowed to decline on proposals based on their personal choice.
Cooking one meal should not take all day in most cases. I cook myself dinner every night and it usually takes an hour or two, plus clean-up time.
i'd argue to an extent that _any_ programming language is not simple

Stated in another way: standalone are sometimes bad, but embedded DSLs are almost always bad.
Seems that they've pretty much just bought Xamarin to kill it (besides actually properly porting .NET itself to other platforms which they could've done anyway). It seemed like a pretty cool product showing some promise 7-8 years ago.
It's not mentally negligent, "is this the only solution?" is a weird standard that for some reason gets brought up in the specific instance but isn't something we apply to other problems.

Is MFA the only solution to the auth problem? No.

Is having a firewall the only way to prevent unauthorized traffic on your network? No.

Is docker the only solution to how to package software in containers? No

Is git the only DVCS? No.

Is git-flow the only way to manage branching and pull-requests? No.

Is Rust/Python/Javascript the only programming language? No.

Are relational databases the only way to persist important data? No.

etc etc etc...

We normally expect for difficult problems to have a variety of solutions with different tradeoffs and in particular, for really hard problems involving adaptive human adversaries, a lot of time we rely on applying multiple levels of "solution" in order to give us defense in depth and a chance to really crack a particular problem.
No? Refusing to hire someone because they are white is unlawful discrimination based on race.

Discrimination against whites is not a hot topic in America because of the historical and social context, but the law makes no distinction.
>Terraform is at least not a YAML DSL, a very common pattern which I don't understand the appeal of. I guess the main appeal is that you can copy and paste, and pretend it's data in simple cases.

It's easy to write an interpreter for - everything maps to either a scalar, list or a hashmap in any language.

It also looks pretty familiar to most people.

It gets abused an awful lot but so does every language that gets popular.
I do think that's a reasonable thing to do. Higher quality copies almost certainly exist but too much of digital archiving is fragile in the sense that someone might have taken all the precautions and... that single person might just pass away at some point.
That’s not fair. If a person sitting at a wall can turn around to socialize, then I propose people sitting at a round table can just stand up and talk to each other in a circle.
> the biggest players (MySQL, Postgres, Sqlite) have actually done a reasonably good job of making the 98% paths very good and 90% of the rest "good enough".

Exactly - Unless you are doing something really unusual (or wrong), the vendors of these engines have almost certainly encountered and optimized for some shape approximating your scenario.

If you want to get into some extreme ends of the practice, "ancient" engines like DB2 are some of the most capable. Many have been around longer than most developers today have been alive (myself included). That is a lot of optimization legacy to argue against. The halloween problem & iceberg meme comes quickly to mind. Why wouldn't you want to stick with something that has already dealt with all of that bullshit?
I hope they succeed, but I read (on HN) a while back that they lost their partnership with Rolls-Royce. This article mentions in passing that they have some GE engines in this PoC, but nothing about an engine partnership.

My understanding is that a plane is designed with a particular powerplant in mind so such a partnership would be make or break.
EMT here: highly recommend this! If you’re in the US, there’s a pretty big need for EMTs everywhere. A 3 month community college course will get you an intro job essentially no questions asked. From there you can pivot to fire if you’re physically capable, or go the paramedic route (2 more years of school). The starting pay for an EMT will be garbage, but firefighters and paramedics can make pretty good salaries depending on location.

The most important part to me was feeling like I was actually making a difference in people’s lives. I’ve done more for others in a single shift than in 5 years of one of my tech jobs. It doesn’t put food on the table, but it does help me sleep at night.

And if you are working in tech, there’s some interesting crossover applications. I’ve applied knowledge from EMS to working on EMRs for instance.

yes, but the topic of discussion what is the share of those nutrition in consumption for plant vs animal today and not hypothetical case when everyone switch to plant based diet.

Also, it is not clear if whole chain of seitan production is much better than animal protein in term of efficiency.
Of course ISIS is illegal, so no games promoting it would be allowed in the US. What do you think a game promoting Dalai Lama would fare in China?

OTOH China’s soft power tools such as TikTok or Geishin Impact are widely accessible in the US. Hey China like the latter so much they placed it on the list of key cultural exports.
This isn’t the case. In Ancient Rome it was a common practice for someone in the audience to note down poets’ performances, then give that transcript to a team of amanuenses who would produce copies for sale, with none of the proceeds going back to the original creator. In the pre-copyright world, no one saw any problem with this practice; as the other poster mentioned, the creator economy was patronage-based. All that the poets objected to (Martial has at least one biting epigram about this) was people putting their own names on the poetry instead of crediting the creator. That is, plagiarism instead of copyright violation.
I guess that was another hang up. What should you use? Why? When is it reasonable to use cutting edge vs seasoned libraries?

Thanks for that, though. I’ll likely give that a shot soon, because my current client loves the idea of MacOS apps. I like the idea of common code to rub on multiple platforms, but it seems like it’s too green.

Your questions sounds like why do we need Alpine linux when we have Ubuntu? Why do we have SQLite when we have Postgres?

I think the point is to reach a baseline of something being super lightweight yet still useful that could be production for a number of use cases.
> Laws are not absolute

This also doesn’t mean people will escape consequences, right? Broadly and statistically speaking, it’s extremely unlikely that breaking a law you don’t like will result in a trial that strikes the law down in your favor. I’d guess this might be especially true with copyright, since there is so much precedent - lots and lots of people have broken copyright and tried to fight it and lost. Why is this case any different?
I'm not saying I like it either, but I find that it wasn't hard to get used to. Probably because I use arrow keys a fair deal outside of contexts with vim keybinds so I was forced to adjust.

I've also adjusted to: the Happy Hacking Keyboard diamond-style arrow keys, and the compact-style arrow keys e.g. on laptop keyboards.

Of course the right approach is suggested by the other reply, which is to not be lazy like me (remap keybinds, get vimium, etc.).
~7% real rate of return on capital means that you are financially irresponsible if you didn't give up manufacturing in exchange for large cost savings. You might see repercussions in 30 years, but by then your savings increased tenfold. That applies just as much to the individual board member as to the government who's #1 priority was GDP growth.
Does this work with files compressed using the usual gzip command line program?

I thought you had to write "sync points" inside a gzip file to support reading from locations other than the start. If you somehow bypass that requirement, can you explain how?

> - Downloads binaries for use in build with no hash/signing verification.

It downloads them using TLS.

> - Doesn't pin shared actions.

The shared actions are just @actions/checkout and @actions/setup-node. They're official. I wouldn't pin them - YAGNI.

> - Uses Yarn to install dependencies (which can involve downloading/executing arbitrary code from anywhere)

It downloads/executes code based on the carefully chosen dependencies

> - Doesn't sign the final binary.

That's platform dependent I think. For Mac OS X it does.

Seems like FUD, which you might be able to recognize because you say "None of this is necessarily wrong". Especially the part about pinning first party GitHub Actions. There would be nothing wrong with that but it is much more useful to pin third party GitHub Actions, and IMHO suboptimal to pin first party actions.
They have been literally infinite issues related to gender and race discrimination before such protections were in the law. Regarding the caste-based issue, there is literally just one case that was in the courts. And the case was pulled back (not settled). There is Zero evidence of any caste-based discrimination across the Americas in workplace today.

You can not get away from your race. But you can get away from religions and caste. I would like to get away from my religion and caste. This bill makes it impossible.
This is interesting and I want to investigate using it for training templates.

so, we have to trust your procedure..
Yes, I also trust the original company more, for now. It would be nice to have more choices.

Reproducible builds would help here, like Go did for their newest SDK [1].

This would be particularly true for a fork when the source changes are fairly minimal, since you could just verify the patch.

Linux distros are fairly similar; why do we mostly trust Debian packages? Because there’s an umbrella organization and a process. That’s less true of a standalone organization.

Maybe eventually there will be an umbrella organization that just does reproducible builds, and people will use that to distribute binaries. (And independent verification could keep them honest, like happens with domain registrars.)

Thankfully. People should really stop using words that make them sound like especially zany comic book characters.
I haven't really used Svelte, but according to their website, they definitely seem to have a custom language that I don't think I've seen before (eg. not mustache, liquid, handlebars, erb). From their own examples [1]:

<ul>
{#each cats as { id, name }, i}
<li>
<a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer" href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v={id}">
{i + 1}: {name}
</a>
</li>
{/each}
</ul>

I think this might be better, for similar reasons as why the daycare that started charging a late fee ended up with more late parents (by moving from a social dynamic to a financial one).

If forced labor is just part of the sentence, we can still argue over whether that is unjust punishment or not just like we do with the death penalty. But otherwise that's just how it is. Whereas "paying" inmates tens of cents an hour (3% of minimum wage) is a slap in the face from pretending it's some kind of voluntary transaction.
Thanks for clarifying, and pointing out where docs can be improved.

For most parts I am trying to ensure everything do get properly reorganised under the official wiki page here. I have just added a guideline of sort to help better navigate which model should be used accordingly, based on your feedback.

https://wiki.rwkv.com/#which-rwkv-models-should-i-be-using

Eventually, from an SEO stand-point, the first landing for RWKV should eventually be optimised to be the wiki or rwkv.com page itself. And not blinkDL original trainer.

This would be more aligned with the fact that the vast majority of search for the model would naturally be individuals who would want to try the model (and not train it / finetune from scratch).
It's on brand.
>misleading review on mask effectiveness (with Tom Jefferson)?

Can you provide more context for this? What was the study? Why was it misleading?
It's not like "these people" haven't heard of that idea of basic human decency, more like they think whatever the books they carry has a priority over someone else's ethics and laws. But teaching them what's correct to a free man is a bit weird and it's also a rather steep slippery slope towards Chinese Uighur camp situation, so these problems are starting to grow and compound everywhere in developed worlds.

Which models were really bad?
There is no such thing as "designed for VSCodium". You can publish your extension on Open VSX only instead of in the MS Marketplace.
You can add other languages, such as Kotlin to that list. It is explicitly made to give you the ability to build a strongly typed DSL with proper scoping, references, validation, comes with all the benefits of a real language, including working language servers right out of the box that autocomplete everything properly. But that would require sysadmins to admit that editing all their config through nano with no syntax highlighting is an awful idea, no matter the amount of time they tell BUT WHAT IF I'M SSHING ON A SERVER IN ALASKA.

Despite all the complaints I have for Gradle (which, arguably, solves problems much more complex than "Ask AWS to burn through my cash"), its Kotlin DSL is impressively powerful and extensible.
> It’s surprising to me that regulators allow this to be kept a trade secret.

The FDA protects trade secrets and more broadly "any commercially valuable plan, formula, or device". Just because something is a trade secret doesn't mean you don't have to tell the FDA about it.

That said, it's not like you really have to prove something is safe before adding it to food.

> There’s no way for consumers to review the product for safety.

Disagree. Or rather, knowing what the coating is does not make you any safer. What it should be is very different from what it actually is and what is inadvertently included with it. 3rd party analysis is the only thing that actually tells you what is in something.

It is useful to have public listings of things for people who want to categorically avoid BPA or MSG or whatever, but that's really a different issue from safety. If it crosses over into a real safety concern, like a nut allergy, trade secrets are overridden. I (personally) don't think it's good to say that any safety concern (in this case, a hypothetical one!) can override trade secrets. I don't think it's unreasonable to disagree with that though.
WWI was a watershed event. A world-changing event. It wasn't as short as the time period between when the first atomic bomb was dropped and when the second one was dropped, but in the scale of world events, it was still relatively short.

And while Art Deco got started before WWI, it didn't really take off until after WWI.

Just like Art Nouveau that got started in the 1890s, but didn't really take off until after the International Paris Exhibition in 1900.

Both styles took several years to get started and really take off. And Art Deco didn't really take off until after WWI.

The problem was that the pronouns and declensions didn’t match. Since this was a case of large numbers of adults learning a new language, they just learned enough to get by and didn’t bother with the complicated bits.
The AWS cdk is a pretty good example of how nice it is to have actual code doing the things. People know JS and know how to use it & it's imminently flexible.

By compare every dsl requires learning some new language. The languages seem to grow and grow. I know plenty of people with a little bit of Terraform experience, but almost no one with extensive knowledge. It's great that surfing along the top works as well as it does, and having such a confined language keeps a normativeness, but in general I so strongly feel it's just better to use available known well supported tools.
Let us imagine there is one chocolate product.

The producer gives you two options to aquire that chocolate.

First option is a pile of ingredients, a plain plastic wrapper and a recipe. You are obviously required to make the chocolate yourself, but what you get is the original chocolate as advocated by the company.

Second option is a finished product that has a pretty decorated package and tastes a bit different than original chocolate. You can't quite put your finger on why, but at least you don't have to make it yourself!

Maybe "fraud" is a bit too strong word. We could go with "consumer deceit" instead.
Exactly.

I’ve spent many thousands of hours since my early teens messing around with retro games and gaming systems. I haven’t accomplished anything as “big” as this person, but I’ve gotten to work on some cool things, and through that process I learn so much more about computer architecture and low-level programming than I ever could through school or work. The time I’ve invested into that has paid off in job and educational opportunities that would not have been available to me otherwise.

A hobby project that is both fun and hard is in my experience the best way to gain experience and develop my skills, regardless of whether it’s “useful”.

I built the house for $1M and sold it ten years later for $2M. So, uh, I guess it earned me a million bucks, minus mortgage interest.

To be fair, that's just how much housing prices went up in Palo Alto over that period, not really anything to do with the specifics of the house. Got pretty lucky.

(The computers were a relatively insignificant cost compared to the house. Like $20k?)
It seems to be more of a spectrum in Lisps, spanning from syntax enhancements to full blown languages.
I've heard it argued that it could be the reason the middle east is the way it is now as opposed to the world's hub of scientific discoveries and great culture that is used to be.

However, that's racist-adjacent so I doubt there's any actual research or scientific basis for it. They certainly have much higher rates of genetic diseases. As noted in that Wikipedia article: "While babies of Pakistani heritage accounted for roughly 3.4% of all births in the UK (2005), "they had 30% of all British children with recessive disorders and a higher rate of infant mortality," according to research done by the BBC.[46]"

Are you suggesting that meat might be more efficient than wheat or soy foods? These are foods we feed to animals for a tiny return on those calories.

Seitan is just wheat gluten. You can take wheat flour off your shelf right now and wash out the starch so just the spongy gluten is left which is pure protein. And that's just one protein-concentrated food.

I think you need to look these numbers up for yourself because it doesn't seem like you have a grip on how inefficient meat is, and I think you need to see the numbers for yourself to believe it.
