Right, I mean one really interesting thing we know is that a lot of life-adjacent molecules like amino acids seem to be created in space by abiotic processes. So on one hand you can get those molecules without life but on the other hand those molecules seem to be common and may have something to do with life getting its start.

My hunch is that life may be pretty common in that it might get established just about anywhere it is possible for it get established, but if we assume Earth is a typical planet and it took us 4 billion years to develop intelligent life and maybe we last 10,000 years, intelligent life will be pretty rare. If there is something like algae within our vision it doesn't startle me at all. In fact I wouldn't be surprised if we found some kind of microbes and maybe simple animals in undersea vents on a moon like Europa.
From the government itself? You can listen to unclassified / declassified 9/11-related communications (all over YouTube) and literally hear the conversations happening. The pilots have done interviews. There’s really no questioning it. It’s part of the US being woefully unprepared for 9/11 because it was so left of field. All evidence points to a lot of brave people doing their absolute best, working within a system that didn’t know how to handle the circumstance. That includes not being prepared to take down a commercial airliner at short notice, because why the hell would anyone ever need to do that!? (no sarcasm intended).
This is a great example of a big head directly leading to strategically poor decision making.

I theorize that Musk could not envision a world where Twitter users are unaware of the branding change to X... but most people don't follow these Silicon Valley soap operas. Of course they are going to miss Twitter when it changes to a black X. I would be very suspicious myself, especially with the dozens of scam apps surrounding it in search results.

I wonder how many of those "Twitter app search namesquatters" got a bump in traffic.
It sure seems like a trick question, because it seems like you want me to define man and woman in a way that you can say "ha gotcha." Instead, I'm leaving the definition of man and woman to you, and only requiring that you know there is a difference. "AB" doesn't refer to the genital configuration, but it is a required component of the arrangement. Whatever a man is to you, in addition to having a penis, that's "A". Whatever a woman is to you, in addition to having a vagina, that's "B". If you don't see how that's a unique arrangement, then I'm afraid I can't continue to explain it while also assuming your interactions are in good faith.

I dunno, it seems like it did. I get the sense that, despite how it was billed, I don't think that the intent was to cease entirely, rather to set the expectation that he's not going to feel obligated to play them and would put an emphasis on newer works first.

>Bowie felt that a burden had been lifted by retiring the old hits he felt he was forced to perform, and said "[Retiring my old hits on tour] was a very selfish thing to do, but it gave me an immense sense of freedom, to feel that I couldn't rely on any of those things. It's like I'm approaching it all from the ground up now, starting with 'Okay, we know what songs we needn't do anymore. What, of my past, did I really like?' You pick things that were really good songs, and you try to recontextualize them, by giving them current, contemporary rhythms. And we've been knocking around ideas like 'Shopping for Girls' from Tin Machine, 'Repetition' and 'Quicksand' from Hunky Dory. Certain songs that I probably haven't ever performed onstage. They're working shoulder to shoulder with the new material, and I'm starting to see continuity in the way that I work."

>Generally, most songs that Bowie performed on the tour were played live in years to come, with only a small number of songs from the Sound+Vision Tour set list truly being retired forever; the most notable songs never to be played live again were "Young Americans" and "Rock 'n' Roll Suicide". Bowie only played "Space Oddity" on tour a single time afterwards, although Bowie did perform the song three times on other occasions. In future tours Bowie would in fact begin to play lesser-known songs, only occasionally punctuated by his well known older "hits", and bias towards playing material written after 1990. After finishing the Sound+Vision tour, Bowie returned to his band Tin Machine for their second album.

Dutch auction + no reselling, or only reselling at the exact price bought or lower. Otherwise scalpers just buy them all as soon as they’re released, and now they do whatever kind of auction they want, with the (previously) max price as the floor.
That was the joke (I think?).
If you tied tickets to names and required ID at the venue (allowing refunds in case you couldn't make it), this wouldn't work and scalping would basically end overnight. The fact that neither Ticketmaster nor the performers nor the venues has ever taken this simple step is the proof that it's not in their interest to do so.

Note that events where the promoters are actually interested in having people show up instead of in scraping for every dollar (e.g. PAX) do this, and it works fine.

Thanks for creating this tool! I was really in need of something open source, and something I can contribute to.
For someone who's brought clarity to complex physics topics, Sabine Hossenfelder's “Capitalism is good” video jumps the shark. It feels like a slow-motion crash (course) into the Dunning-Kruger effect. With simplistic, naive interpretations and moralistic undertones, it propagates myths that many experts have spent years trying to debunk from the public space - some of them Nobel laureates, and, multiple times requiring the use of the expression "Zombie Ideas" in the book’s title.
Oh, we seem to project modern attitudes on historic events. At that time, a divorce for any reason was a scandal.

I can well imagine she just left, embarrassed, ashamed, confused, no plan, no internet in the palm of her hand to ask it what to do.
All Egyptian telcos are basically state-run even if they're not listed as state owned. iirc all network infrastructure is leased from TEData (TE = Telecom Egypt) and so they have the ability to block arbitrary ip addresses or mitm traffic.

A side effect of this is that there's no real competition between ISPs in Egypt, since theyre all forced to lease the same infrastructure at the same rates, and are forbidden from building their own. I'm a little salty about this fact, since it's the reason why I could only get a 2Mbit connection to my old apartment until I moved abroad.
Sorry, no. Any service that will issue emails masquerading as 3rd-party domains, which does not use an effective authentication mechanism, is an open relay by definition.

I continue to regret that the window for the major browsers to incubate and support a content-addressable URL scheme based on then-current distributed hash table algorithms closed ~20 years ago and has shown no signs of being reopened.
Ooo, what did it look like? A Mach kernel oops (aka "just start painting text from the top-left"), a BSOD (more structured), a dialog box over the top, or...?

Also what info was printed? An inscrutable Guru Meditation, a register dump, or...?

Just idly fascinated to figure out how much info would be dumped by a piece of avionics running in end-user production mode.
Tipping I would like to see replaced with fair wages, but I like the tax not being included.
There are many varied and systemic reasons, from supply chain, to mass consumer behaviour, politics, battery technology, access to minerals and the sheer insane scale of mining that we would need to ramp up to, to meet the demands of electrifying even a fraction of today's ICEs. This article explains it pretty well: https://spectrum.ieee.org/the-ev-transition-explained-265931...

> “EVs,” notes King, “pull an invisible trailer filled with required major lifestyle changes that the public is not yet aware of.”
>
> When it does, do not expect the public to acquiesce quietly.

To electrify any significant proportion of ICEs you will need to massively ramp up mining in developing countries. This is going to crush their populations like a meat grinder at the same time that it blights their ecologies with the after-effects of mining. It's a new colonialism with a race to acquire resources for EVs: https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/interactive/2023/ev-cob...
Looking around, it does look like she's explained things better in other videos than the one I saw, so maybe I was too harsh.

The video I saw at the time is "Why is quantum mechanics weird? The bomb experiment" where she describes entanglement as a photo being torn in half and then sent apart, and then vaguely says that it is a "stronger" correlation than that.

On looking for that video though, I watched "What did Einstein mean by “Spooky Action at a Distance"?", where she describes things a bit more thoroughly with socks, where she explains that the correlations were created locally but when you measure the one particle on one side the other particle's wave function changes. She then goes on to actually explain that the sock explanation does not work as it does not sufficiently create strong correlations, which I think is a much better explanation

Looking back, I think I've learned a lot more about quantum physics since I last watched her videos. Back then, I think I saw her repeated use of explaining entanglement as a "stronger correlation" to be a cop out. Now that I've dove into the actual Bell Inequality experiment and understand how it works, I actually quite like that description as a placeholder for a very strange phenomenon that none of us really understand yet. Still, I do think she should have clarified just a bit better on the first video I mentioned, but I guess when you make lots of videos on one of the most complicated topics of all time it's rather easy to omit a crucial detail here or there.

Israel’s methods are incredibly interesting and something that you just wouldn’t get away with in the US. I say this as a non-American non-US-resident, which I think is important because my comment sounds like American exceptionalism.

Sydney has topped net internal migration for years now. It's desirable for everyone who doesn't live there, actual locals are getting out at a ridiculously high rate.

There's a visibility question too.

If Intel comes to my computer company and offers me a sweet rebate, what do I know about what they're doing with my competitors?

So if it were illegal to receive money to help a company monopolize their market, how would the company receiving the funds be able to determine that's the case?

The logical way to fix this seems to me to be for DMARC to implement some way for the domain to not just require SPF or DKIM, but explicitly require DKIM specifically.

This is how other similar things have solved similar problems, like DANE, CAA DNS records, and HSTS headers in HTTP. CAA records, in particular, long had a similar problem which was only solved with RFC 8657; discussion here: <https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34035148>

Try working on your communication/interpersonal skills, man. You're not a good communicator because I had no idea what you were trying to say until this post. You also shouldn't get upset by discussions of shells on the internet. You probably should take some time away from the computer.

This statement:

"Submit" on mobile doesn't seem to work. I assume it's supposed to update the preview, right?
Or proof that getting in would take much longer if they did that. Anyway, there are legitimate reasons someone might want to resell, like no longer being free on the event date, so I’m not sure even legitimate buyers would prefer such a strict system.
Also actual fans sometimes can’t make a show and need to resell their tickets

The Roman Empire is commonly considered to be the four centuries of post-Republican state of ancient Rome (27 BC) until more or less the adoption of Christianity as the state church in 380 AD and the "fall" of the Western Roman Empire during the following 80 years or so.

Your "latter Christianized Roman Empire" was the dag end of a rotting corpse .. you might be thinking of the Byzantine Empire (aka Eastern Roman Empire)

Republican Rome and to a much much greater degree Empire Rome were not entirely homogenous, the Empire integrating many cultures (such as the Arabian divisions building Roman forts in Britain) .. much as modern USofA does with it's large latin and many other demographic populations.

The Roman Family picture would need to be broken down almost as much as the US Family picture - I suspect the single parent rates in the US might vary considerably by ethnicity .. although it's interesting the the article linked above (IIRC) suggests that Christian V. non Christian rates are more or less the same.
I find UFOs hard to believe though.

I think there is no way to say "faster than light" in God's geometry as much as I wished the superluminal neutrinos at CERN were real (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steins;Gate_(TV_series))

I suspect interstellar travel is possible (somebody has done it in our light cone) but the odds of them showing up here in person right now seem unbelievable. It probably takes 10,000 or so years to make the trip and I think anyone who can swing that can also manage to subsist on comets between the stars and would probably be completely indifferent to dry inner solar system worlds like ours.

That is, if there were "grabby" aliens there wouldn't be any Ceres and probably not any Pluto (who needs the Sun when you have D-D fusion?)

I'm amused by the scenario that interstellar travellers might spend 10,000 years in transit (say with some fusion drive that makes relatively low thrust for a verrrry long time) and show up here and not have a space shuttle capable of landing and taking off from a world like the Earth (why haul it for 10,000 years?) with some luck they might have plans to 3-d print one but might still take a decade or so of fumbling to get it right.
If i got married and she didnt work i would lose per month 800$+ in childcare costs, 550$ in cash assistance and our combined foodstamps would effectively drop by like 100-150$ over our household amount(hers and mine before marriage).

if i got married to a normal earning woman id lose 2500$ in benifits total a month. This includes 560$ towards rental assistance.

And when i start working ill lose 500$ a month and probably 250$ in food stamps.

But if i just dont work i can raise my son like a parent should. Which is first priority.

E, Maryland. A town with slightly lower than average rental costs,, but great livability statistics. We have a two floor, two bedroom apartment with listed price of 720$.
Assuming this works, I’d assume I’d want to have for decades right?

So what’s the plan to ensure this service does not degrade over the next few decades?
I do wish this was less common. It's kinda hostile to any users who might want to fire up a debugger for learning or solving a problem with your site, and as we can see can mess with developers too.

And while it does speed up load time a bit in JS engines, this was never a measurable amount in any JS library I used. Bytes pushed out from the site were only slightly lower than the non-minified, since both were compressed in transit anyway.
Almost 50% is federally owned. It’s hard to see what the state can do about that.
Personally, I don't think pay of minimum wage w/o tips will work. The service industry is already starved for employees and that's in a tip-paying world. The market will eventually speak (or regulation will) and restaurants will simply have to pay more to be competitive.

Where are workers going and why is there a difficulty in finding people?

Tbh, just about anywhere. The local gas station is far less demanding of a job, has flexible hours, and pays a guaranteed wage [1] that's about the same as what they'd make waiting tables [2].

> Do you have service staff friends/family?

Of course! I could tell you stories all day about how the front and back end of the restaurant business functions. Key takeaway, it's not fun for just about anybody, but the jobs and workforce are highly fungible. Working in the restaurant business is almost like being a freelancer, except the hours, working conditions, and pay sucks.

At the end of the day the problem is not that restaurants don't want to pay their staff, it's that they don't want to look expensive in a crowded market. Once the market has to shift (either by market or legislation) the entire market will move at once.

That is indeed how it works at comic con. But mind you, SDCC is a non-profit so they're not so strongly incentivized to promote reselling.
Off the top of my head, it's possibly a partial myth.

Although they do have suits you can wear to protect against Jelly Fish stings.
Clearly barrier protection is effective.

So I suppose the myth portion comes from the efficacy of different types of stockings.

Fishnets probably dont do much good.... Super thick ones of a quality material probably do work!

I'm not sure of the sting mechanism of jellyfish and what level of barrier protection would work.
XY sex-determination system is based on the fact that the chromosomes one has at birth cannot change naturally throughout their lifetime, so magical or hypothetical scenarios where chromosomes can be altered doesn't align with our current scientific understanding, but if it makes you happier, sure, in a magic world humans would be able to change their sex.

Also, I don't see how the existence of intersex people should be somewhat problematic in this regard, intersex is a congenital condition, like people who are born with six fingers, that doesn't make the fact that humans have 5 fingers controversial.

To be honest I think I'm kind of stating the obvious and most people (trans people included obv) would agree with me, which is why they use "gender affirming care", "gender transition" and "transgender" (instead of transsexual which is in fact seen as an outdated term). If you don't care about true biological data (plural of datum), but only the opinions of trans people, I can ask my trans friends (one nonbinary and two trans women) what they think about it, even though I actually know them well, and they would agree with me.
Building tools for other companies’ platforms (first one was Twitter, second one is macOS, last is OpenAI) is always a double edged sword.

It makes growth / user acquisition easier, because you’re going where the people already are. But it also means you’re at the mercy of the underlying platform waking up and invalidating your business model (as happened with Twitter).

As you suggest, the only way to survive in this mode is to be continuously building new products around a diverse group of platforms. It helps if they’re not too diverse, because you can cross-sell (i.e. the correlation of Twitter users, macOS users and chatgpt web users is pretty high). When one platform shifts, you find another.

It’s a risky method but not a bad one if your morale can stomach the down turns in any individual platform.

Tangential to the article: I have had decent luck finding fossils at random spots in the US. When I'm traveling by car, I tend to map out spots based on this list of about 15,000 fossil spots in the US and Canada:

http://donaldkenney.x10.mx/FOSSITE_INFO.HTM (listings by state here: http://donaldkenney.x10.mx/FOSSINDX.HTM)

Not all of the listed spots are findable, since the list is based on index cards of unknown origin transcribed from years ago. But I have had success with some of them, and it's often a fun detour.

Next time I go, I'll have to try licking some rocks!
