> When dealing with complex questions of which we have but datapoints, the probability of scenario A vs B moves in a linear scale, not according to arbitrary requirements of "extraordinary evidence".

That may be true, but I the case of interstellar travel, we have mountains of solid evidence to prove it's not possible (essentially all of physics for the last 100 years or so), and some vague claims with 0 evidence claiming it's actually happening. To convince us that all that physics is wrong you have to bring some extraordinary evidence, not claims that you heard someone knows someone who saw something.
haha, fair point. Still, I'm on the fence about how utility components are namespaced in USWDS. Perhaps giving users the flexibility to define the namespace might work better? One thing that bugs me is the absence of class-sorting like we have in TailwindCSS. Plus, there are some gaps I've noticed in USWDS. The naming, especially when comparing "padding-x-2" and "p-x-2", can be really annoying when switching around, maybe that could also be an option for the developer or project. Similar to the ideas antfu has on uno.css https://unocss.dev/ ♥

The article states:

"It found that the “family pairing” scheme, which gives an adult control over a child’s account settings, did not check whether the adult “paired” with the child user was a parent or guardian."

Chapter 8, Article 1 of the GDPR[1] states:

"Where the child is below the age of 16 years, such processing shall be lawful only if and to the extent that consent is given or authorised by the holder of parental responsibility over the child."

This doesn't seem vague at all.

Another case that scratches my itch was when I take a look on Spanish
Linux-themed sites with Indonesian translation (as appeared on first page
of Google search results). The translated text looks like stiff, gibberish/incomprehensible, and too formal. It reminds me of statistical machine
translation (SMT) output, or is the text really MT-generated?

Examples: [1], [2], and [3].

On the side note, all these sites have a similar design and layout, which makes
me wonder if these come from the same organization/group or not. And even these
sites' title is also translated, which further raise the alarm.

End result? Here be dragons: visit these sites with a grain of salt.

I'm not sure of the current state of pedagogy, but when I was studying mathematics at the primary and secondary school levels the formalists were ascendant and geometry was an afterthought at best. It wasn't until AP Calculus that I had a teacher who stressed that many problems could be solved geometrically. He encouraged us to check for agreement between the geometric solution and the formal solution.

I have one of these for my dog (https://tryfi.com/) which has saved my GSD a number of times after running wild out in the woods of Northern Michigan. The battery lasts for months in normal operating mode but can be put into "lost mode" remotely where it will ping towers aggressively and give a precise location. This open source solution looks very polished and comprehensive though.

Your website's natural sounds for attention, relaxation, and sleep are really helpful, in my opinion. There are a remarkable number of sounds accessible, and they are of good quality. My productivity and the quality of my sleep have improved as a result of using the sounds to help me focus while working and unwind before bed. I appreciate you offering such a useful website-building lesson.
If Tim Cook had calmly said what he did, I’d believe it was just toeing the party line. The fact that he actually got angry, though? He doesn’t strike me as the sort of person who’d fake that, I don’t think that’s the image he wants if nothing else.
Navy pilot David Fravor, who has the most compelling story of any of them, has also admitted to perpetrating UFO hoaxes on people for shits and giggles. UFOlogists have decided to lean into America's "troop worship", holding up military personnel as paragons of virtue and honesty because respect muh troops, to turn these pilot witnesses into unimpeachable evidence. But David Fravor admitted on camera that he thought it was funny to create false UFO sightings with his plane. When this same man then starts making claims about UFOs "but totally for real this time", it takes serious credulity to take his claims at face value.

Regrettable behavior is broader than not being nice to people, it could be that they overshare something personal, or express an opinion better left unsaid, etc. etc. Good for you for not having any regrets, but this is the exception not the norm.

Yes, I got my old Chromecast to work with Jellyfin. Heads up: You'll have to redirect DNS from 8.8.8.8 and 8.8.4.4 to your router if you'd like to use a local hostname (i.e. in your LAN), though, otherwise the Chromecast will never use your DHCP advertised DNS service.
Do we want repairability or not? This makes it much easier to repair.
Weird how nobody mentions that you can actually walk your cat - it's very different from walking a dog, but completely doable.

Over time you can get rid of the leash and just walk side by side.

My cat was 10 when we moved to a ground floor apartment, so we couldn't realistically prevent him from escaping, so we started walking him. He lived over 16 years, the last two of which he would only go outside to lay in the bushes.

Unfortunately, the supply chain often goes 3 and 4 levels deep. And by the time you get to companies that far in the supply chain, (a) no one has ever heard of that company, so the trying to threaten them with reputational damage doesn't really work (it will be some random set of chinese characters for a company in Shenzhen, for example), and (b) it will turn out that the team that wrote the device driver for that particular subcomponent in the SOC was disbanded as soon as the part was released, and 4 years later, half are working for a different company, and half were died during the COVID pandemic.

Sure, if you could set the Wayback machine back in time, and require that device driver be upstreamed, with enough programming information so it's possible to maintain the device driver, maybe it would be possible to upgrade to a newer kernel that doesn't have eleven hundred zero-day vulnerabilities. But meanwhile, back in the real world, very often there's not a whole lot you can do. So this is why it's kind of sad when people insist on buying Nvidia video chips that have proprietary blobs because performance, or power consumption, or whatever, instead of the more boring alternative that doesn't have the same eye-bleeding performance, but which has an open source device driver. Our buying choices, and the product reviewers that only consider performance, or battery life, etc., drives the supply chain, and the products that we get. And this is why we can't have nice things.

The overlap between the two is large enough, that I don't think you can find a non-technical problem on Twitter that isn't also a problem within society itself.

"They" were a company in Hamburg, so I guess they made the label in German because they produced it in Germany. Their primary foreign market was apparently Russia and Poland, at the time.

The significance of 1992 is that Russia became the Russian Federation in December 1991 and the early years of the Russian Federation were defined by a massive market deregulation, massive privatization and extreme corruption but more importantly to this anecdote: an opening of the Russian market for international trade.

The "Feinsprit" (or "Primasprit") was safe for human consumption (if watered down at least) but it was essentially a cheap industrial product. It's also noteworthy that a similar product had been available in the GDR (which collapsed in 1990) but was apparently fairly expensive and hard to come by, so likely not produced at scale and for export.

I wish game development wasn't so monolithic. You're either all in on Unity, or all in on Unreal, or all in on GoDot. They are designer forward, code later. Each has a marketplace of sorts, but in my experience it's substandard.

Compare that to web development (different beast I know, but there's no reason gaming can't be more componentized). Web development is so simple these days because I spend most of my time gluing stuff together, and sanding the edges.

Game development has concepts like this, and I have no doubt I'll get replies showing me some nifty component system, or talk about how I just don't understand ECS etc, but they seem tacked on to a monolithic walled garden. There's something magical about "npm install x" and adding a whole feature to your app.

Maybe it's because "it's art" and game development is just a passion project.

This is very much a YMMV situation. They work for me, both in the web UI, the native app, and in the Kodi plugin. I think it may have to do with where your subtitles are coming from and/or how something is configured.

If you have a device that can run it, I find that Kodi is the best frontend for JF. It has a lot of extra features that the normal client doesn't.
The real issue is plain text, and files and folders.

File names, folder names/hierarchies, function names, class names are all _arbitrary_. You could randomize them all and your code would still run.

What is not arbitrary is: the call graph, and the data flow/dependecy graph.

Every line/block of code could be wrapped in a function.

And classes...your class methods are just functions with an implicit parameter of an object of a certain type...and practically, not the entire object, just the parts it that it actually uses in the function body.

So if you just focus on what your functions do, the boundaries and groupings of your code will become self-evident.
it's also not only bad PR, but CSPs are subject to SLAs.
10x less code is impossible. Either it adds much hidden magic code or it pumps the other language examples, or it lacks on functionality.

10 years is nothing. I'm against copyright maximalism and would love to see copyright terms whittled down, but 10 years is a non-starter.

For every Stephen King that has a massive following and would easily earn enough in those 10 years, there's 100 mid-tier and lower-tier creators that need any income they can get from works still earning in some fashion.

Also, think about how a 10 year limit would be used against creators by the Disneys of the world. "Well, damn, we don't need to arrange a movie deal with King... we'll just wait 10 years and a day and then make a movie on this book."

Hey, indie band that still scrapes by on royalties and touring? The minute your best-selling album is 10 years old, it's going to be repackaged and sold without you seeing a dime.

Yes, it's more complicated than that, but... an arbitrary 10 year limit wouldn't fix things or make the world substantially better and might make things worse.

Now - I'd be willing to talk about things like drastically shorting terms for works for hire/copyright owned by corporations and not individuals.

We might also need to think about not having one term for all things. There's no reason the copyright term for software should be the same as that for a song or a movie or a book. Books, songs, paintings, basically art should probably have a copyright term in the 25-50 year range. Certainly no longer than 50 years.
In general one very rarely upgrade engines after release. Even during development you usually don't upgrade if there isn't a new feature in the new version you really need.

Really it is only an issue for new projects and at that point if the license of the newest version is not to your liking pick a different engine.

Also the last UE3 game I know of (Them and Us in 2021) was made by a small indie studio not some big AAA studio with massive publishers backing. At that point the engine had been in "end of life" state for 5+ years.

I’m currently biased due to the fact that an essay I 100% wrote myself came back from turnitin as being AI generated (in generic places, like the introduction) - so I think AI detection software is a bullshit gimmick. And I say that with full awareness of my biased attitude.

However, I think the arms race going on might lead to some really interesting innovations in this space that might not solve the AI detection unreliability issues (for human vs AI text), but might create some interesting solutions to other random issues. Also the way it’s unfolding is kind of interesting.
It's the Paul Atreides model, right? If you can destroy a thing, you control it.

I was talking in a general sense there.

Also, DC does have rights to past output, the "new" public domain rights are for the general public to create stories in the universe using the unique creative elements that Willingham formerly retained copyright for, as per his contract.

Willingham and DC are still bound by the contract between them. But, the rest of the world is not. That doesn't mean that DC won't still try to strong-arm anyone who wishes to make their own Fables stories, it just means that Willingham has given the copyrights that he retained as per contract to the general public.
