Just a side thought related to this: can there be a community supported initiative to parse what TOS documents of different companies mean, and specifically, what to watch out for in each company's TOS vis-a-vis what is the norm in a certain industry?

Right now, the "gotcha" power is entirely one-sided. A wiki-like approach towards documenting TOS might make the user better aware of what to really watch out for when using a particular software.
I fully agree with your assessment. In terms of annoyances, so far the only complaints I have after six hours of play on the XSX would be:

- (Bug) Enemies in the cookie-cutter "abandoned" facilities being able to shoot me through the very thick airlocks.

- I keep getting kicked out when I try to rush the airlock and get into the facility. At which point the magic weapons get me through the doors (even when shut).

- "Abandoned" always means occupied by bad guys who have displaced the good guys who were doing research (or other things) there. So call such places "reoccupied" or something. There are space baddies there, it's not abandoned.

- We have spaceships which can jump light years at a time. Can we please have binoculars, or did humanity forget how to craft those in this universe?

- I guess when Earth got completely destroyed by humanity, so did the ancient art of cartography. Or maps of cities occupied by humans need space subscriptions which are just too damned expensive and/or have too much advertising going on in them.

- Having to commit to a skill (like lockpicking (security?) before being able to try it out.

- We can't just email someone to have a conversation with them. We must travel light years and then find them without the help of...a map.

Still, I'll probably end up sinking more hours than I want to count into this game.
Anti trust isn't that opaque, it just hasn't been actively prosecuted for the last few decades.

There's a ton of stuff that has been allowed to happen via consolidation, merger, or pure homegrown that simply hasn't been prosecuted because recent administrations had an alternate theory that monopolies are OK if it benefits consumers via lower prices. Tech gives out a lot of stuff free or where its cost is hard to directly measure.

Tech also enjoyed bipartisan support for the last 20 years or so, but that has completely flipped over the last 4 years or so. We will likely see a lot of this stuff is no longer ignored.
Unfortunately, that is not the case. If you lose your home in foreclosure, you are still liable for the mortgage. They could buy the home back for $25,000, but they are still going to have to pay on that mortgage that they took out.

Cannabis should be legalized and regulated. Period. People that want to partake ofc should have safe access to it.

That doesn't means and has never meant it is a harmless thing, like some groups portray it to be. "it's just a naturally ocurring plant!"

Education, more information and less zealotry help on both sides of the discusstion. It's not the devil's lettuce they had people think with 60s propaganda, but it's not a panacea either. Extremes are not good.

Maybe I’m just biased because I’m from an area where they grew a lot of weed before legalization anyhow, but I don’t know that the youths are consuming any more cannabis (or that a larger proportion of them do it) now. It was already there, readily available, and highly prized amongst the same kind of people 20 or 30 years ago. So to me, the major difference is…how bad they’re made to feel about their drug of choice, I guess?

I had great results with this back in the day. The template meta programming DSL you had to use was pretty horrifying but it was a triumph of what you could do with template metaprogramming (which was something discovered, not designed, in C++).

The first compile time regular expressions I saw that just used normal regular expressions was D's CTRE which produced an even faster "engine" than Boost Xpressive. This was thanks to D's compile time function evaluation reaching a point something like this was possible.

I just started using this CTRE for a regular expression whose performance had become problematic and I'm very impressed with it so far. It's pretty easy to surpass std::regex but not sacrificing usability was surprising. Build times haven't been affected too much either (for my use case).
Intermediate knowledge of what's being tested, everyone is the most overconfident on subjects they have intermediate knowledge about.

If you test high school concepts then if you are shaky about high school concepts that applies to you. People who have no clue about high school and people who understand high school well will be less overconfident on that test.

Or if you talk about college algorithms, then that is the basis for intermediate knowledge. An average comp sci grad will be the most overconfident, a person who never studied algorithms and a person who teaches algorithms for years will be less overconfident on that test.
"Astroturfed" is baseless, but yeah there are a lot of boring nerds who don't do drugs and don't want anyone else to have fun either.

Cannabis is an order of magnitude less harmful than alcohol, who cares. More science is great and helpful, but this doesn't actually move anybody's needle on legalization, it just gives them an excuse to yell about it.

> It's designed the way it is to achieve that goal while minimizing the space used, yet keeping an entire history of the project

Most of git's design was done before they thought of 'minimizing the space used'. Originally, they didn't even do deltas and just stored complete snapshots for every object.

> Merge conflicts are hard in this model because you're trying to put two snapshots together, not just two diffs.

I don't think that's the case at all. Thanks to three-way-merges git has just as much access to the diffs as any other version control system when merging. It's just that in git diffs are a derived data structure, not a source of truth, but that doesn't make a difference.

I have.

I worked inpatient psychiatry for ~6 years.

All substances you consume have non-zero risk associated with them.

Including seemingly benign things like milk.

It's the job of every person to understand their body and to do a risk/reward analysis on anything you consume.

For many, the benefits of THC/CBD/cannaboids outweigh the risks.

Perhaps you should repost this periodically. The worst case scenario is that your post is ignored. This idea could become something of a foundation for tracking companies.
I certainly agree with this.

In Australia, tobacco is sold behind the counter. Tobacco has plain packaging and there is no advertising or promotion.

This is the way marijuana should be sold - cheap, clean, legal, available, but behind the counter and not advertised or promoted. It should not be like California or Thailand where you can go to cafes or marijuana shops.

Marijuana should not be treated as alcohol however - advertised, commercialised and glorified. Available, cheap, clean is enough.

Profit margins that make a price more than double are pretty bad, yeah.

Well they started off in Boston and were MIT/Harvard grad students. And the backend was a DARPA project. So not really Brooklyn at heart, though some millennial New Yorkers pretended it was. They even had a personality trait for how much a user reminded them of Harvard girls. Like many "only in New York!" things it was really something that had mass appeal and gave a sense of quirkiness that was actually widespread in our generation.

>They usually sell crippled GPUs to the low end of the market. That's a segment of the market they no longer really serve. They also didn't do anything to hide the fact that their GPUs were really being sold to miners and not gamers, something they got fined doing.

1. Low end GPUs have extremely small profit margins. It's smart business decision to not lower prices in a declining discrete GPU market. Business 101.

2. Nvidia did not sell GPUs directly to miners. They had no control/no way of verifying what the GPUs will be used for. And who cares if they sold to miners? It's just business at the end of the day - free market.

>Their leadership is going to be transitory since they are not being competitive. Intel would never had entered the discrete GPU market if nVidia keep prices low.

Their leadership is extremely competitive.

Nvidia prices GPUs at the price the market is willing to pay. It has nothing to do with "greed" that you seem to be suggesting. Business 101.

Intel needs to enter the GPU market because AI runs on GPUs as well. It's both gaming and AI. Intel needs to be in the AI market or they're toast.

>Lack of mobile GPUs and integrated GPUs is a red flag that they're charging too much money. Discrete laptop GPUs is a niche of the market. It is not what most laptops use.

No clue what you're talking about. Cite the source for lack of mobile GPUs? You mean laptop GPUs right? Nvidia doesn't make SoCs for phones or laptops.

Discrete laptop GPUs outsell discrete desktop GPUs. While it's not what most laptops use, it's still a much bigger than desktop GPUs.
Nah, people just realize that it’s not worth continuing to fight the drug war and kill and imprison hundreds of thousands just because little skylar turned into a bit of a pothead for a couple years.

This is exactly the kind of pro-drug war astroturfing GP is talking about. Think of the children, think of the health risks!

The risk has always been non-zero, but it’s not high either. And the net reduction in dead dogs and botched drug raids alone is a countervailing factor.
Typically that’s what a newspaper is supposed to do. With userbases larger than some countries, it could make sense.
I can see why some people who don't play chess think this is terrible, but there are plenty of events that are called open, we're both men and women are free to play against each other.

Men and women can always play each other in the open section, but biological women should be protected for their own sports and spaces.

As it naturally occurs it probably was fairly innocuous in longer term psychoactive effects.

Heirloom strains had CBD alongside THC.

CBD on its own has been as effective in research as antipsychotics in treating schizophrenia, and very much mitigates the OP effects in research.

But the vast majority of product today has selectively bred out the CBD.

It's time we stop talking about cannabis use and start regarding it as THC use, as the full spectrum of the original plant is no longer what people are really using.

It'd be like selectively breeding high arsenic almonds and then people getting sick eating them and declaring the problem as one impacting almond consumption instead of more specifically arsenic consumption.

THC unmitigated by CBD is a psychiatric sleeping giant that's currently not being addressed because the pendulum swing is still glowing strong with legalization momentum and any criticism is generally dismissed as simply being anti-cannabis use generally.

It is the same result, just that they added the "unskilled" category.

This can be true at the same time that cannabis use disorder increases the likelihood of mental illness is true. These are not mutually exclusive.

With all due respect, your inability to use marijuana responsibly should not make my responsible marijuana usage illegal.
Potency continues to increase and the message being heard by the general population is that cannabis is “safe”, that’s why it’s increasing legal. My own children believe “it has medical purposes”. The billboards and advertisements also convey this message.

This idea cannabis has “health” benefits is beyond absurd.

Unfortunately it will trigger and already has a serious mental health epidemic society wide.

Sometimes, actually frequently, the empirical realities are hard for societies to accept rationally.

Users all enjoy it. Businesses profit from it. Governments collect tax revenue. Politicians collect votes and support.

> I do hope to see markets emerge that target power users

The problem is that every group of power users has their own idea of what they want, and they're _very_ stubborn about providing features that they don't personally use or like.

I've run across these, though I can't find the link now, there was a suite of "apps for power users like us", compile 'em from source, if you don't like that then go fuck yourself.

Which is a fine way to limit who asks for tech support, but it's not much of a market.
I'm not the only technical person who likes his channel!

His channel hits this incredible niche between science (his knowledge of how the various cleaning methods, glues, paints and varnishes he uses interact with each other is amazing), the technical (one of the first videos of his I saw was the vacuum table build and the rigs he's built to save some of the wood panel paintings are amazing), and the meditative (as he would say, sometimes there is no better way to clean a painting than sitting there for 12, 24, 72 hours with cotton balls).

I'm a bit sad that they don't allow someone like him to work on paintings of this vintage. I know a Van Gogh is extraordinarily perhaps incalculably valuable but I would absolutely love to see paintings as they were when the artist first painted them (or at least closer), especially Van Gogh. The transformations on some the paintings Baumgartner has done are astonishing and can completely change the tone or meaning of a painting.
I was going over the top because gp is insinuating a moral argument rather than a health argument based on their interpretation of a bad headline. Cannabis Use Disorder is not the same as occasionally puffing a doobie with Alice on the weekend.

Or, you can just make whatever short-term changes to your existing successful product, juice the metric you're looking to juice, and (in theory) cashout before the long term repercussions take affect.
