Roe v Wade was legislation from the bench. The current court undid that, and are basically shredding any Sua Sponte legislation that comes before them.

This uses WiFi which really limits the utility. Poor choice of physical layer imo.

LoRa, WiFi HaLow, or an 802.15.4 based tech would be much better choices depending on range vs bandwidth.
Oh, I know they're in a coubillion. But... that also is a creole dish. I also can't stand the dish because I don't like tomato with fish unless we're talking fried catfish with ketchup.

In the beginning, there was ogombo from Africa, an okra stew made with tomatoes... and kombo, which was a native American dish made with sassafras. I've made gumbos with all three, but I tend to leave the okra gumbo to the true professionals who have done it long enough that it's no longer slimy... which is the exact opposite of what you want from the unadulterated African version of the dish.
That's still following an objective perceived benefit: quenching a passion and satisfying curiosity.
The key irony is that the empowerment of ambitious individuals that he praises is only possible in an institutional framework that makes it possible. That just allows you to sell your homebrew computer, for example. And there are plenty of people who, once they have become powerful by climbing those ladders, would have no qualms about pulling them up. So pg's analysis works at an individual level, but it's not great guidance for what society should do.
Lol, on what grounds don't you agree? Do you know these guys? Have you talked to them?

In my very brief military service, as part of the (Israeli) army jail punishment I was sent to guard "camp 16" ("makhaneh shesh-esreh"). That's one of the facilities where IDF puts Palestinian terrorists. So, I've seen and heard some.

In early 2000's (I think it was 2003) I worked as a waiter in Caffe Hilel in Moshava Germanit district of Jerusalem. It was the one which was blown up by a dude from Eastern Jerusalem who worked there in the kitchen. The guard died and another waiter died. It was right before my shift, so I didn't catch the event itself, I came right afterwards. There were about a dozen of people wounded because the glass at the entrance shattered by the explosion and spread all over the place.

Anyways. I knew the terrorist guy from work, obviously, ad well as I knew plenty of other Palestinians both from the occupied territories, from Gaza, from Eastern Jerusalem or somewhere inside Israel, like Ramle / Lod.

And here's the hard truth about it: unless you are someone educated, someone who got to travel a bit, speaks English to a degree that you can independently read / watch the news, you are the terrorist material. And that's the vast, vast majority of population of Gaza. They don't know any better, and they live in the world that westerners cannot even imagine. They have no idea humanism was invented. They have no idea human lives in general are worth something. They really think that westerners are stupid and weak because they care so much about their lives. The feeling is compounded by disgust, because from their perspective caring about one's life or well-being more than caring about some absurd superstition is an affront to their understanding of modesty.

These people live in a hierarchical world where boundaries are set by gender, nationality, religion. Your worth is determined by you being born into a particular nationality, beside other things. Jews are simply inferior in their world view. The fact that they even aspire to be on the same level with Arabs is an affront to those traditional Arabs. It's like a torture to them to have a Jewish manager, or to comply with what a Jewish police officer tells them to do.

This is not about religion. Arabs living in Gaza, for example, wouldn't recognize Jewish converts in the US as Jews. It's about ethnicity. It's not about anything you can consciously change about yourself. Even if you were a Jew who converted to Islam, you'd still be inferior in their eyes.

So, do they want to kill all Jews -- you bet they do! They wouldn't bat an eyelash telling you how that would be a miracle from god if all Jews died a painful death, all at once. I mean, unless you are talking to someone who was exposed to the idea that killing people based on their ethnicity is bad. Most of them either genuinely don't know it, or despise people who think that way. Not everyone would take up arms to do it, but in their world view, anyone who does it is like a saint...
There was a lot of concern about slave uprisings and indigenous insurgencies and there were precedents in the laws of individual colonies, such as Virginia's, where white men were required to own guns for these purposes.

Since armed Choctaw rebellions and plantation slave uprisings are of course still a very legitimate concern buying assault rifles at the gun store should be a sacrosanct holy right. We certainly don't want another Haitian revolution on our hands.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but that isn't a logical fallacy. A logical fallacy is "A misconception resulting from flaw in reasoning, or a trick or illusion in thoughts that often succeeds in obfuscating facts/truth."[1] "Selection bias" isn't a recognized logical fallacy, in logical reasoning. "Selection bias" is a statistical bias in sampled data.

They put forth a premise, "With Linux and git being probably the most widely adopted open source software projects ever"

Then an inference, "Linus's approach is historical proof"

And a conclusion, "is the best way [to review code]".

Assuming we can accept the premise as true, you're left to attack the inference (whether or not Linus's approach is historical proof). You may disagree with the conclusion, but calling out a logical argument as a logical fallacy, and using that to dismiss the conclusion, is itself, a logical fallacy called a "fallacy fallacy"[2]

Count the hedges:

- "it's developing". read: "nowhere near ready, might never be"

- "chip in collaboration with Google". read: "LOL. No!. Go ask rockchip how that went for them, twice..."

- "plans to". read: "no promises"

- "wearables". read: "might sell a few thousand of these"

Sell what to who? Isn't everyone a lessor under Georgism?

I don't see how having regular auctions to determine what the land is actually worth is compatible with true land ownership. You auction the land to determine the tax, someone pays more than the current lessor, then that highest bidder gets to lease the land from the government and kick out the old lessor. Where does ownership of land and ability to sell it and profit from improvements come into play?

Unless you are in the Georgism-lite camp that says no auctions, just let government appraisers put value on the land as they do today and base the property tax on that exclusively instead of the current combined property tax. In this case you still have property ownership/buying/selling, which is far superior. I think the pros could outweigh the cons in limited situations, specifically downtown metro areas. But you have to accept a lot of bad pricing in this scenario, because these are the same assessors who allow all of those single story parking lots to profitably exist in downtown metros throughout the country.

These appraisers would all of a sudden wield huge influence, and one appraiser's opinion of the value of being near trendy shops or a park or a waterfront could vary significantly from another's. At least now they can use market data from similar properties to come to a tax assessment, since the tax is being assessed on the full value of the property.
I mean, they're making a lot less money, so I dunno. It's easy to run a company with a skeleton crew if you run it at a loss. it's the cost efficiency that makes it harder.

Mmm, this really isn't the same thing. With a drum machine you're still programming the riffs themselves and people's chief complaint was the sound itself, whereas I've listened to a number of samples from this and the quality is definitely there, but the lyrical melodies themselves are not particularly harmonically engaging or memorable. Like the voices are just all over the place on the scale.

That being said, this is definitely a "meme" kind of thing rather than a tool for actual orchestration.
For developers, TensorRT support also exists for the diffusers library via community pipelines. [1] It's limited, but if you're only supporting a subset of features, it can help.

In general, these insane speed boosts come at the cost of bleeding edge features.

This is poetic. Is it generated with GPT? Or did you write that? Kudos if you wrote that.
Ishkur’s site was originally a parody - it was meant to make fun of the scene, the scenesters and the people who take genres really seriously. I DJ’ed (very badly) and threw raves in the 1990s and completely understood it in the context of that time. And he was from Vancouver - Vancouver had a very interesting scene. That’s the nicest possible way to put it.

For example, there was the drill and bass DJ who spoke of Freeland basslines in reverential terms (before stealing and pawning off about $5k worth of a friend’s synthesizers). I still hate that dude. Or the drug dealers who dressed like happy hardcore fans but maintained that hard house was the one true genre. Or there was the great PLUR debate of 1994 when peace, love, unity and respect fell out of favour. It was replaced by Hakim Bey-esque temporary autonomous zones.

(I wish I was making that part about TAZ up. In our defense, we were all high and kind of felt like we were changing the world like our parents did in the 1960s.)

25 years later, the scenesters are all in their late 40s or 50s and the satire seems lost. But those of old folks who were around back in the day remember all the arguments and love how this site parodies them.
> Wallpaper entries should somehow suggest the following themes:

> Trustworthy (i.e. reliable, stable, dependable)

> “A reflection of me” (i.e. personalized, familiar, comfortable, “fits like a glove”)

> Personal growth (i.e. independence, level mindedness, critical thinking)

> You should not feel constrained by the themes. Quite the contrary: The goal is for them to inspire your design and maybe help evoke these feelings/thoughts in the viewer, but you should take the abstract nature of the ideas as a way to freely express your creativity in your design.

I spent weeks just thinking about a solid concept for it but couldn't figure a way to convey or signify somehow those concepts in one cohesive piece - I just gave up.

I participated with one the previous time they did an open contest but could come up with something because there was an "untold" set of rules - you know the style of all "KDE 5" wallpapers, based on 'mosaics' composed of triangles or hexagons. But this time with such constraints I feel it's actually pretty hard _just to be sure what to do_ because the possibilities are almost endless.

I do hope their future wallpapers take a much more organic course than in previous versions, though. And much respect for whoever can pull that off and come with a great concept.
I've never used it. Works great.

Or you can get a brand new N100 mini pc from Amazon for < $150 with 16Gb RAM and a 512Gb SSD (probably cheaper on AliExpress). It's much newer (10nm instead of 13nm+) and can idle as low as 6W.

And for GPIO (if really needed) you can always add something like an USB Arduino micro (clone) for a couple of bucks.
> the elevation of this profoundly mechanistic (and in that sense perversely innocent) system to a position above all other moral, philosophical and political values

There's no such elevation. The political process ultimately decides the law (including constitutional), and the law regulates (or frees) the market.
Quite a few people could do what the article asks if sufficiently motivated. How do you propose to motivate them?

I often have trouble convincing people to install Signal, which requires about two minutes for people who barely know how to use their smartphones and under one for people who know where the app store is. If a majority people don't have the motivation to do that much, we have a very uphill battle.
Yes it's not that bad and I liked the second episode better.

As with many problems this is a misalignment of incentives.

Quantity of papers is #1 and citations is a distant #2. People will outright tell you quality is rarely the goal and that unique results face tough publication odds.

Peter Higgs recently mentioned that his department looked to fire him before his Nobel prize, and his lack of interest in filling the metrics.

I also work in peaks and troughs, so not every day is productive.

I try to make up for it on productive days by being very productive or extra creative.

The important part is to handle the life admin and low prio stuff on the lazy days if you can so you can clear your time for the peak days. Usually I try to follow my lazy and then get curious.

Working remote helps with this since my output averages out over the week, and I can still have peak days without a manager bugging me or having to be in an office. Some lazy days are on the couch, but then a golden hour / brain wave of good work can happen. If I was chained to a desk it doesn't happen.

I loved Diamond Age. My favorite Stephenson book, by far. But the ending, the resolution of all the action, was such a letdown. Such meh. I find that this is often a problem with cyberpunk.

Mmm, I understand what you're getting at but from what I remember of the book (it's been a few years, please forgive me) the two you're talking about that failed were relatively privileged little girls who in at least one case had separate tutors, school etc, and this played into why it failed, because they abandoned the TYLIP whenever it challenged them or made them uncomfortable. Moreover, TYLIP didn't just work with Nell, it worked with the whole Mouse Army, hundreds of thousands of young girls. Nell not having her birth mother and being functionally "adopted" by the ractor whose name starts with M was a huge part of Nell's character growth, and a parable about children failed by the system who can be so much more if they have someone to love them, but I don't think it was the only reason TYLIP worked. I do remember the book gesturing at what you're talking about though, specifically when it was examining the difference between Nell and those two other relatively privileged little girls. Moreover, my understanding was not that those other two girls had a purely automated TYLIP, it was that the ractors their TYLIPs automatically hired were short-term gigs, while Nell's was someone who stuck with her long term (and was invested and nurturing, as you say). In fact I'm not 100% sure, but I think the whole Mouse Army may have had fully automated TYLIPs that ended up turning out quite well for them. The general trend seems to be that young girls who had no other parental or authority figures bonded very well to the ~~wire monkey~~ TYLIP and developed well because they stuck with it, while those who had human alternatives chose those alternatives as soon as the TYLIP challenged them and therefore did not stick with it and succeed. Doesn't exactly leave us with a policy prescription, but it's still an interesting story.

Basically, I agree that anyone seeking to replicate the TYLIP should at least have an answer for this objection because I see it raised every time TYLIP comes up, but the book's actual contents on this issue is pretty complicated and I'm not sure it's obvious that the books version of events is accurate to real life, or even that it maps cleanly onto a "human touch good, wire mother bad" framework.
This is how I see it too - drumstep was basically dub/brostep sped up to d&b tempo, and with a few d&b stylings, whereas halftime is really doing d&b at half-time, often falling into dancehall and hiphop rhythms. They end up having some things in common, but coming at it from different angles.

I'm a big fan of a lot of stuff from Fixate, Fracture, Dr. Jeep, Ivy Lab, dBridge, Dub Phizix. None of these artists are exclusively in the genre, but they all have some great examples of this kind of music.
Given equivalent data stored in both JSON and BSON format I would expect them both to compress down to blobs of roughly equivalent sizes. This is because both encode roughly the same amount of information, so the compression algorithm will tend to compress down to the same final result. I haven't run this as an experiment though..that would be fun.
Posts are linked with accounts and blasting old posts out as if they are new is not practical in a federated network, and since Mastodon doesn’t support backfilling (and likely never will) it’s just not going to happen. This isn’t even getting in to the logistics of redirecting replies and likes/boosts. The GitHub issue for it has been open since 2019.

A proposal of Balaji Srinivasan:

able to interrogate the information supply chain . . . . You see it in the media and that comes from, a government study, that's based on academic study, that's based on a data set. . . . have a actual academic supply chain where you can trace the etiology, the origin of a fact or an assertion all the way through the literature. And there's a famous paper that actually did track something like this all the way through the literature and found, it was just something that just got repeated with some like medical nostrum that actually didn't really have that base of evidentiary support where when you track all the back, you couldn't find the brought table.

In another HN thread there was a discussion of police shaking down minority owned nightclub owners for protection. But, if you look at the police (self-reported) crime statistics they will say the Midwest is very safe.

This article is another brick in the wall that shows that statistics are coerced to tell a story that is convenient for the powers that be. And, the powers that be are well aware of how that "news" shapes public opinion and voting, so the powers that be own the newspapers.

It's all dirty air when you are breathing in "news."
