The weird effect right now of conservatives winning elections is that more parties will be more like them in order to attract voters away.

We all lose.

That's why "starmer is a red tory" doesn't jibe with me, Blair is also a "red tory" and is/was painted as such; but he won by a landslide on that.

The media was so against Corbyn, progress away from conservative ideology will be long and it requires people to show determination to move away. Even if it's little by little.
My experience with Hue bulbs and lights is that although they are more expensive, they are of MUCH higher quality - better light intensity and temperature control, longer lasting.
Interesting take, I was having a conversation the other week where I reused a fun line from the Expeditionary Force books:

“Britain: striving for mediocrity”

People are run down, fed up and have no idea what to do about it because as a nation we have culturally been conditioned (over generations) to accept our lot.

Striving for better (not just individually but societally) is sneered at and things going badly is shrugged at as the norm.

I sometimes feel we have this idea that the the UK is feature complete. Any new infra project is protested, new initiatives to try to improve things are eye rolled at - even talking about new ideas leads to back lash.

I honestly don’t think it’s some top down grand plan for control, I think it’s just incompetence, lack of leadership and fear of the above points.

So yeh, heads down, carry on and hope for the best (well, hope for “not too bad” really).

I have noticed the announcement of the change too. This materially changes the product for me. I was a happy user so far, and was thinking about buying more bulbs in fact, but not anymore.

Is there a way to force the company to return the money I have paid for my bulbs and hub so far? Even if it is arduous and cost me more money than I'm able to gain back I would be inclined to do it to signal my displeasure with this change.
Time and time again It takes just one MBA trying to boost numbers to turn a good product into a data collection nightmare.

Honestly is there any IoT brand that we can trust long-term? Maybe IKEA stuff?
Oh come on - don't you want for all your bulbs to be turned on already _before_ you get back home? It's a gamechanger!
Apple makes its choices for commercial reasons, so it will be interesting to see if they choose to introduce their client-side CSAM scanning for UK customers, or pull iMessage from this market like they threatened (which was probably an empty threat).

If they go for the former, and implement their system in line with the principles that Levy and Robinson set out, would you change your mind? As this would be an indication that actually it can work in the field, if the political will is there.
Yeah, learnt that the hard way as well. "I'll install Windows on the new drive, copy over data from the old drive, then throw away the old drive - computer doesn't boot anymore because EFI boot partition randomly ended up on the old drive"

Since then, I always make sure to disconnect all drives except for the intended system drive when installing Windows.

Oh hey, I had some while making https://hn-blogs.kronis.dev/

I wrote more about it on my blog: https://blog.kronis.dev/articles/ever-wanted-to-read-thousan... but the gist of it is that I had to parse thousands of blog feeds and some article from 2009 included a SOH control sequence inside of otherwise valid XML and this broke everything, until I added additional error handling.
> "total cholesterol is a terrible health metric on its own"

Yeah you've got HDL, LDL and Triglycerides, LDL should be low (L) and HDL high (H) - that's my mental shortcut for it. Triglycerides should be low as well, but not too low. That's the one that has a specific bandwidth. A high HDL and low LDL could have the same TC as a low HDL and high LDL.

I have no idea why anyone worth their salt would look at the total cholesterol value without a breakdown of the _types_ of cholesterol. It's a meaningless number.
Full stop used for multiplication in 7 bit ascii would mean full stop as decimal point could not be used safely.

x or X would have meant x or X could not be used as a variable name.

Functions would have worked fine. I suspect functions came after expressions when God invented imperative programs, when he invented lisp in the beginning was the bracket and it was good and he saw it was good. Functions came next.

As mentioned in Getting Started, with `pipx`:

`pipx install harlequin`

From the pipx documentation:

It makes the command available globally, but sandboxes the package in its own virtual environment.

Indeed. Most of them are also bad planners and lose track of priorities very, very easily. Besides that, there is non-stop internal strife and quarreling as they are deeply social creatures that need to be in constant competition with one and other in order to be happy. You need another class of humans to "manage" these issues.

Once those two layers interact, you get a whole new dimension of problems you get to deal with. The creation of yet another layer of "management" is inevitable. It's basically management all the way up.

But man, once you get a bunch them aligned and motivated the sky is the limit.
Some of my wife's family lives in a mid sized village in eastern Germany, and getting from the nearest international airport to their house with public transport is literally a 6 hour affair (followed by a 4ish km walk) and if you miss any of the connections, you're not making it there that day. By car it's a 90 minute drive on nice roads.

No, you don't ever use VPN for privacy. 99% of the VPN providers log every single activity on their servers.

I am using Mullvad and they seem take privacy very seriously and I kind of trust them, certainly more than all the other providers. Do I trust them 100%? Definitely not.

I am not talking about the linked study, but about the linked YouTube video of the parent.

But if you want to talk science, new studies don't disprove what was found before. That's not how science works.

The consensus is that LDL causes CVD (atherosclerosis). I dare say that causality was established. Here's it from “European Atherosclerosis Society”:

https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28444290/

Here's one of the largest studies correlating risk markers (n.b., ApoB is the protein from LDL particles):

https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6...

TC measurements, of which the TFA talks about, are already ignored, BTW, because it's not accurate. This study may as well be valid, and further investigation is needed.

That doesn't mean previous findings aren't valid, and if you have a high LDL, chances are high for you to die of CVD. And I'm mentioning LDL specifically because that's what the Keto community cares about, since eating saturated fat directly increases LDL, with many in the population being “hyper responders” with a high risk, actually. Therefore, people that advise others to eat all the saturated fat they want, with no statins treatment or other lifestyle choices that may help, probably have blood on their hands.

As a parent I have looked into this precisely because there is so much autogenerated crap. With some form of AI by my side I can author my own content to a (hopefully and subjectively) higher standard. I can tailor stories to my Childs life events or school curriculum, I can include characters based on real world friends, aquantences, pets etc.

Im currently working on something along the lines of "Detective Rosies & faithful canine sidekick Rufus, the mystery of the broken lamp at grandmas" trying to use this type of stuff to help them feel closer to relations who live far away.

You know what Switzerland has a lot of? And yet they have an incredibly fine-grained train network. Almost every mountain has a tunnel through it or a train to the top. And they all go on time, except for the trains coming from Germany. Swiss trains don't go every 10 minutes like in some countries, but they're very reliable and a great way to visit even fairly remote parts of the country, some of which are inaccessible by car.

Of course not every tiny village has a train station, and the ones that do tend to be very touristy, but you can cover a lot with a mix of trains and buses.
I guess one could also argue the other way around: that Orwell knew his compatriots all too well to come up with the particular fears expressed in 1984 and Animal Farm (both set in perverted late stage socialistic rather than capitalistic/neolib societies btw).

Following this line of thought,
not only did Orwell describe surveillance, but also mass manipulation, so perhaps in UK more than elsewhere there's a tangible fear of mobilizing and polarizing the masses through media, fuelled by liberal press laws, class awareness, and traumatic experience in eg Brexit campaigns, possibly at least partly financed by a foreign adversary.

I was spec-ing out Varnish for a project recently and was really impressed with what it could do. The stale-while-revalidate approach (immediately serve data past the `ttl` for a `grace` period while asynchronously refreshing it) keeps data flowing. It can `keep` data past the `grace` period and serve that when the origin goes down or use that in conditional requests (If-Modified-Since) to the origin to prevent fetching unchanged content. Coalescing requests mitigates thundering herds that reach stale caches. VCL scripting makes the whole thing very configurable. I think Varnish needs better marketing, but I suppose Fastly does that now.

But the same could be said about the life that is about to be born. Life doesn't start the instant the body leaves the womb. Abortion could also be judged in front of a jury.

What I meant is that the line between abortion and infanticide, choice and life, is blurry. And you must admit that if you believe that parents have the responsibility to raise the life they birth, then anti-abortion laws make sense, and if you think that parents should have the right to chose, then legalizing infanticide (within limits) is one thing you should consider.

I am not picking a side here, I am just saying that if you have an opinion on the matter, the cutoff you chose, being the first heartbeat, a certain number of weeks, or birth, it is arbitrary.

Children shouldn't be on the internet, just like they shouldn't be left to cycle on motorways. Or enter contracts and take on debt. Or fly jet planes. Or be left alone in a workshop or kitchen. Etc.

We restrict their activities because their judgement is limited, and this most certainly extends to Internet access, which ought to be adult-only. It should be seen as extremely irresponsible parenting to leave your kids online. This is the answer to what to do to 'keep kids safe' - the same things parents have done for millennia. Restrict their activities.

No one who 'gets' the internet wants the government's opinion of what is 'safe' applied to it. The only reason this sells is because lazy fucks of parents who want the Internet as a substitute for interaction that they owe their children. Or other activities that they could organise which would be more suitable for children. This is too much effort for them apparently - just dump little Johnny and Lucy in the corner with their iPads!

Of course access to unlimited information and communication is dangerous for children - they don't know how to handle it, they have limited experiences of trust and how to manage that, such things only come with growth, involved parenting and repeated interactions over the years. Again, the Internet is no substitute for that, and only adults can reasonably manage their lives online.

How do windows kernel versions like 6.1.7600.20655 work? Maybe my google fu is weak, but from looking at

https://superuser.com/questions/296020/windows-kernel-name-v...

it seems that Microsoft does a mix of backports and upgrades:

> 6.1.7600.16385, 6.1.7600.16539, 6.1.7600.16617, 6.1.7600.16695, 6.1.7600.16792, 6.1.7600.20655, 6.1.7600.20738, 6.1.7600.20826, 6.1.7600.20941, 6.1.7601.17514, 6.1.7601.17592, 6.1.7601.21701

So this does not look like 10 year support for the initial version but rather like switching different LTS versions over that time. Is there any data from microsoft itself on support duration, release dates, backports and how to parse these numbers?
No, use exFAT.

Support you have the following assets:

- /js/foo.js
- /css/bar.css
- /img/baz.png

With a content-based hash, end up with something like the following:

- /js/foo.abc123.js
- /css/bar.def456.css
- /img/baz.ghi789.png

This means that for each and every asset you have, you need to keep track of their unique filename for that deployment and you need to be able to access that whenever you want to refer to the asset. In practice that means most people rely on their bundler to rewrite every place they refer to those assets, which can make it awkward if they need to refer to them from non-JavaScript contexts. Also in practice, people often seem to ignore anything other than JavaScript or CSS, meaning you get stale assets if they aren’t JavaScript or CSS.

With a Git hash prefix, you would have something like:

- /abcdef/js/foo.js
- /abcdef/css/bar.css
- /abcdef/img/baz.png

This means you only have one single reference to manage, which you can keep track of without relying on your JavaScript bundler. It also means that in a lot of contexts you don’t need the reference at all, for instance in your stylesheets you can just refer to url(../img/baz.png) and there’s no rewriting necessary to get the right behaviour.

Your build process and your infrastructure caching are two separate concerns; it’s easier if they aren’t tightly coupled.

Obviously you need a healthy mix. Trains are great for some situations, not for others. Same with every other mode of transportation. For best results, make sure you use them all for the situation they're best at.
YAML and XML both get their reputation from the software that use them poorly. XML is a pretty decent markup format. YAML is a decent serialization format. Both are brittle when used as a human edited configuration file format.

How many buses? For busses to be a viable alternative they have to run at least every 30-60 minutes for basically the whole day. For many smaller villages this will effectively mean that many of the busses will be running empty much of the time. Or you scale back to once or twice a day to match demand and then busses are no longer a viable alternative, so people don't use them.

This. The standard is also truly horrible to read. It's not really designed to be read, as much as it is an after-the-fact description of what somebody has already done.

And clearly no one else has ever, or will ever have a different experience than yours and if they ever do it's because they are worse people and deserve it right?

I'd be willing to bet there are a lot of people on food stamps who work harder than many high income earners myself included. If I suddenly had to spend hours on public transportation just to get to work where I'd spend all day doing the kinds of demanding jobs I pay others to do for me I'd envy my old life of sitting on my ass on the internet while in air conditioning all day.

Poor people often work their asses off because they have to just to get what little they're paid and keep what little they have.

2) This is not specific to the data that underlines consumer credit scoring; a broker could be selling products derived from data on historical house prices or car sales for example. A competitor might use it to compare and validate their own dataset or simply have a look. Third party investigators, journalists, etc though could have a field day fact-checking it.
