How does this work?

I just installed, then uninstalled, the Chrome (Brave) extension that is supposed to redirect videos to some invidious instance.

I use Brave and am now seeing the "sorry you can't watch YouTube" anymore sign because Brave blocks ads.

I thought installing the extension from the website would just redirect whatever video I clicked on to the mirrored video on an Invidious instance, is that not the case?
Great point, though the negative effects of a food you eat are a part of nutrition. Additionally, the concentration and ratio of Omega 3 to 6 fatty acids is more favorable in wild fish.
How many of those houses are on the fringes, and how many are in the CBD? If there's a vacant plot next to the town hall then it doesn't really matter how many vacant houses are a 1-hour drive out, that town-hall adjacent plot is being wasted.
It’s certainly possible, but going down that path sounds like a good way to end up like Aaron Schwartz.
Incredibly good line.
The population of music lovers, people that have favorite bands, genres, albums, want more music. Those who listen passively and do not own or care about albums and don't go to concerts etc. can be safely ignored; Spotify is fine for them.
Duplication often leads to resilience in a system, and can lower the infrastructure required since the centralized resources aren't being shipped across the country.

Optimizing for profit in urban land use excludes the production of raw materials almost entirely. Meaning that raw materials have to be grown or raised elsewhere, transported into the city, and the waste has to be removed afterward.

Wouldn't it be more beneficial purely from an environmental angle to produce more food and resources in the urban areas to minimize external costs? And if so, wouldn't the current system disincentivize this in favor of higher profit per square foot businesses, regardless of the environmental impact?
Anecdotally the position of pharmacy chains is so weird. I feel like more than half the time if I see one of either Rite Aid, Walgreens, or CVS there's one of the other two directly across the street. Usually it's the pair of Walgreens and CVS. Someone with skills in GIS could probably answer this pretty quickly...
Just curious, how are you using black? I would expect it to take 3-5 seconds for 10k LoC, but how frequently do you need to format that much code to notice 3-5 seconds at all?
Equating basic subsistence level jobs to 80 percent jobs just because of the hourly nature is a bad faith argument imo.

Informative and a new insight into the future of wireless communication
Interesting little aside for those reacting to the fact that it's PE who pay our bills. While the world of vampire PE certainly exists, most of the time the clients I interact with are genuinely concerned with how to make the business better. And we are far more frequently telling acquirers to spend top dollar on new hires than advising on who to cut! The expectation is that the company needs investment, and that they will get 20% year over year growth for about five years. While the bad rep of PE certainly came from somewhere, in my expereince over the last five years of working in the field, I would way rather be at a profitable, sensible, PE owned company than a VC funded "disruptor" gunning for the big IPO or google acquisition. Our world is positively normal compared to the FAANG scene. We see people who have been at at the companies for 10 to 15 years all the time.

Seriously, I feel like a broken record when I say "Hire a top drawer test automation engineer to lead the company in how to run QA properly - this should be a senior developer" etc.
That tracks if 80% were then engineers based on generic org structures. Isn’t this expected?
Cost of batteries is the limiting factor. They are expensive.
> Then there’s the aesthetic problem. When products are developed for the elderly, they tend to be ugly and an unwanted signal of fragility. As a result, people who need walkers or canes often resist. Once upon a time, a cane was stylish: Today it is seen as a medical device.

The canes didn't change. If anything they look nicer, and you have more options.

People are going to hate anything associated with being handicapped or elderly, no matter what the design is.
Drugs are a much more highly regulated industry where you won't have random sellers stock intermixed for fulfillment so the plague of fakes and knockoffs are unlikely to extend to their pharmacy play.

> my understanding is that iCloud sync is enclave-to-enclave (unless you have an old Mac I guess)

You misunderstand.

Keys that are stored in the secure enclave never get out. They can't get out. That's literally why it's secure. This is why Apple silicon Mac internal hard drives can no longer be swapped. If the drive is separated from the secure enclave, or the secure enclave is damaged and the encryption key is lost, the data on the hard drive can't be recovered. You don't have the key; you can't get the key.

That's pretty standard. And where I work we have each manager also drive at least one major initiative that spans multiple teams. So that ensures that you're the domain expert in at least one thing above and beyond what your team is working on.
Well, I think zoning is mostly silly, and people should mostly be able to decide what they want to do with their property.

(Before zoning was a thing there were already nuisance laws that forbade opening heavy industry next to a Kindergarten. No zoning required.)

In any case, people don't build high rises in the middle of nowhere right now. They won't start (or at least not much more than under the status quo) if someone drops taxes on structures a bit.

Also keep in mind that people don't get spontaneously generated. If people cluster together to form a high density area, some other parts of the country will see lower density. Ie if you let all the people who bunch up together, bunch up together, there's more space left over for the people who prefer lower density.

> If I have a lot of green space and few structures, and we convert to LVT, I will be taxed proportionally higher than before, or than my neighbor with less land and more structures. By taxing me more you are dis-incentivising my approach.

What you are describing is purely an effect of whether you tax structures or not. It's completely independent of whether you tax the land value.
Wanting to live somewhere and reducing climate impact are different though. If you build a city full of dense housing, where does all the food and water come from? Or the electricity, furniture, and clothing?

Costs can be externalized, but at the environment level they still exist even if outside the city of consumers. It's also often the case that externalizing those costs adds even more impact as the product has to be shipped in and the waste shipped back out.
Do you have any reference for this? In which jurisdiction does it work like that?

I had a job that required and expected you to be able to travel to a customer site and it was stated up front in the job requirements (cloud consulting). But when we had internal team meetings, no one put any pressure on you to travel.

But in my opinion it would have been dumb not to travel to meet your coworkers and manager in person. Besides, many of us would bring our spouses along and pay for their ticket out of pocket and extend our stay over the weekend if it was some place they wanted to come.
Maybe they should try being only a prescription fulfilling pharmacy, OTCs and a place you can get your shots. You can fit those things in 10% of the floor space these places usually occupy.
They are falling in price by around 10% / year. That’s not even counting cheap Chinese battery chemistries.

> I’m only buying the right to rent it from the government in perpetuity.

You are paying maintenance in exchange for the right to exploit that land. Streets, power, water, sewage, fire, police, schools and libraries both cost money and increase the value of your land, so it makes sense to link the tax base to the value of the land since they should be strongly correlated.

Yes. This article doesn't provide any actual conserns.

Government needs good way to reliably identify its citizens if it wants to provide online services for them. It has to be strong identification anyway because most online services that government provides are sensitive.

Unless this is used for some more malicious purpose than login in to do taxes, I don't see any issue with this. They seem to be allowing it to be used by commercial entities, which might be more concerning, but not necessarily. Depends on what is shared and how authentication is handled. Many commercial entities anyway need your actual identity (like banks) it is much better that instead every single company collecting all information they only need basic information and can use the government service to handle identity verification.
Do you think this would actually happen in a place with as inefficient and corrupt local government as Detroit? Be honest.

The proposal by Detroit here is to increase taxes on abandoned land. It's not binary, I'm sure some speculated parcels will not be viable to hold any longer if the taxes rise to the same price for built and unbuilt land.

I suggest you familiarize yourself with ES5/6 changes. For me classes and modules makes JS more like class-based language.

You're only looking at net numbers and not how it's an interconnected system and when one sheet goes so does it's support for those near it. Look at how significant the loss is on the west side. Read the article before speculating from your interpretation of a graphic please.
Not true! Validators and users don't actually care what what computation happened, they only care that whatever computation happened, did so according to the rules that were set in the contract in the beginning.

To make things concrete let's look at an example. Computational state in a block chain contract is typically stored in a Merkle hash trie. Let's say that the data stored is a key, and the holder of the key is allowed to spend the coins bound to the contract. The _computation_ is to check that the key is contained within the Merkel trie, then check signature of the key and the spend. However with some cool zero-knowledge crypto magic, you don't even have to reveal the Merkle inclusion proof, nor even the key itself. All you have to do is provide a zero-knowledge transcript which verifies that the computation of the contract (Merkle inclusion proof and signature check) validates. This is, essentially, how zerocash works.

This result generalizes. For whatever computation you want to perform in a contract, the contract can be rewritten to instead just validate a transcript of a successful execution of that computation. This isn't just academic either. All NP problems have transcripts that are validatable in polynomial time. A derivative of this result is that while you might need Turing completeness to express the logic of a smart contract, you do NOT need Turing completeness to validate its transcript. As a trivial example, a smart contract that involves computing a hash preimage by brute force in a tight loop, could be replaced with a contract that merely takes a string and checks that it hashes to the desired value.
This is fine for a 1980s monolithic program but if you use any library that reads environment variables (like, ahem, libc!) you have to treat the whole library as non-thread-safe? Or keep track of the "color" of each library function?
This is a tough question. I think that some toxins are specific to the fish feed (ie, preservatives in dry fish feed), but generally my understanding is that factory farming or large scale farming that results in a race-to-the-bottom on price can often yield food practices that are long term harmful but not obvious.

Ideally, you would actually know how the food you're eating is raised. There are a lot of resources and bodies out there doing research on contaminants etc, and there are certain actually reputable certification programs. However, it takes a very discerning consumer to understand this. For example, eggs can be marketed as "cage free" and "100% vegetarian fed" -- but this can just mean that the chickens are housed in giant indoor structures and might never be allowed to forage outside, and that they are fed grain or corn or soybeans.
Is there actually any evidence of this? I agree with the mechanism you describe, but I imagine increasing temps by a degree would have marginal effects compared to things like forest management.

If we want to reduce harms from fires, I don’t think combatting climate change would make the top 5 in terms of effective policy.

> However in reality its a difficult ask to have all people purchasing single family homes to be able to build a 40 year financial model/projection of a regions growth prospects when the buy a home.

Georgism doesn't require that any more than the current system. In fact, for people who haven't already bought a home, the cost under a Georgist system are almost exactly the same as before:

The yearly outlay for owning a place is the same, because market forces will adjust land prices to make it so. The sum of cost of capital plus all taxes is roughly only dependent on demand / what recurring benefit you can derive from the land. Under LVT your mortgage will be smaller, but you have more taxes on the land.
Pretty well done - especially the experimental validation. The main conclusions are accurate, but there is some BS around the periphery. A few notes below.

- The secret sauce here was the large, high quality experimental dataset they generated.

- Chemprop is meh.

- Is a tanimoto similarity < 0.3 really dissimilar? Depends on the chemical fingerprint parameters they are using in RDkit. For ECFP4 the expected similarity of two random molecules is about 0.1. A value of 0.3 about the cutoff you would use for a similarity based virtual screening with ECFP4 fingerprints.

- The cheminformatic filtering steps that they did on their hits was well done.

- The experimental validation of the target was well done. A good illustration of all the preclinical work it takes to validate a molecule and mechanism on the way to an IND.

- They got very lucky. Most of the time your compound hits are not all that potent and require extensive med chem optimization. That was not the case here.
"... I regret it, I shouldn't have done it"
>> It would actually increase green space

Not in valuable parts of cities it wouldn't. The direct effect of LVT is higher cost of land and lower cost of buildings, thus incentivising more building and less bare land/green space.
Pretty good writeup.
Having 17 direct reports is too much. Managers are not just a link in the chain of command. They also do stuff that needs to be taken care of. All kinds of unusal things happen and not all are suitable for delegation. 17 direct reports is not only a measure of how many colleagues they need to manage. It is also a measure of the large the weird-things-that-needs-taking-of-scope is.
Hamas got around Israel’s surveillance, because Israeli government led by Bibi got complacent and was busy doing geopolitics and selling surveillance tech to various regimes to spy on opposition and journalist.

Now there will be information leaking that it’s Iran and Russia helped, and new type of warfare, new tech, etc, which is true. But this is basically them saying “it’s not we who missed it, it’s that the enemy became more advanced” to deflect blame externally. When you rely on a breach sensor from a border fence, a camera feed and a remote machine gun, if it gets broken you need to repair it right way, and deploy a team immediately. DevOps reacts faster to a server outage than IDF reacted to a breach of security. IDF probably thought that if anything serious breqed in Gaza, Shabak would know. And Shabak probably thought, that in worst case scenario, they had sensors and remote machine gun at the border. This reasoning might upset many Israeli, but it’s a case of complacency and the political elite loosing perspective of what is important.

One of the things that worries me about this because we have other local pharmacy choices, but that Rite-Aid bought up a California favorite called Thrifty's and still sells their amazing ice cream.

I don’t recall the project’s name anymore but they organized it in some way I don’t recall either, often a single function per file, and then compiled all the JS files with a bash script by just appending. I thought it was neat — has its obvious weaknesses but it had the strength that the organization scheme could be changed anytime without having to update import paths or anything, quick compilation and not too hard to eventually (I assume) migrate to ES modules.

Define "a few". You can't expect most company owners to want to continue running that company for decades on end; eventually, they want to do something else or retire. So at some point, they have to sell. Who's going to buy an existing company that's profitable? Someone who's "profit-hungry" usually. If the company is just a passion project, no one buys it and it just goes under when the owner gets tired of it.
