A technical leader's technical experience should be so intimidating on its own that he should be putting in appropriate effort to reduce the natural fear that is common among reports as well as superiors.

Alternatively someone who cultivates fear does not have the characteristics of a leader at all. Certainly not a "fearless leader".

The most meaningful love for a leader can only be developed over the long term, and is an overall admiration gained after recognition that things under that leader are better than they would be otherwise.

> You can't put a secret agent in a room with a bunch of nefarious terrorists anymore, because those terrorists don't sit in a room with each other. They talk on Telegram.

So you... put some secret agents on Telegram to infiltrate the terrorists. In the same way as you got into the room with them before people had portable phones. You bug their phones in the same way as you used to bug their rooms -- through physical access. Which is effective but expensive, and so it works against terrorists and serious criminals but not for mass surveillance.

Interesting architecture consisting of a RP2040 mated to a Pico W. The Pico acts as the primary CPU, executing code and providing IO. The RP2040 handles the graphics and GPU out. They GPU is connected to the CPU over I2C as a peripheral device.

Organic chemistry != containing fluorine. Maybe you meant chlorine, which is a common ingredient?

IPv6 standard notation already uses alpha characters. Some notations of IPv4 use them too.

"Just adding characters" isn't a solution on its own. IPv4 is 32-bit addresses, IPv6 is 128-bit addresses. That's all there is to that.
This is specific to the act of learning a language, where writing out the characters with intentionality will obviously have more carryover to memorizing the forms of such characters.

When the learning tools are detached from the subject at hand - as is the case in most college classes where basic literacy is a given - it's hard to see how one particular tool could possibly be better than others.
That's only true if you don't have a firewall, or yours is misconfigured. "Only allow related" as a default incoming rule works just fine for IPv6.

My cursive is terrible so I resort to print handwriting, which was never pretty either. And then I get super annoyed at how slow handwriting is, so I try to speed it up. It quickly becomes an illegible mess.

I need the fastest & most legible writing system. Legible. Fast. Can we design a hand writing system that hits 30 wpm? 40wpm? Without resorting to shorthand. I'd rather redesign the alphabet from the ground up instead of bothering with shorthand.

I actually find most cursive is hard to read, and yet I grew up with some exposure to cursive. I imagine many people younger than me would have less exposure to cursive altogether. Cursive is kind of dying off, except in terms of writing speed.
Unfortunately, that sort of GOF research is at the top of the list of GOF utility. Because animal virii making the jump to humans is the risk factor the international epidemiology community tries to protect against, for the very reasons you've highlighted: the harm when it occurs and the frequency with which it occurs (rare, but often enough to create a once-a-century firestorm, at least).

Spanish Flu was likely an animal-jump, baed on research done on corpses retrieved from the arctic circle. H1N1 was an animal jump. HIV was a multi-virus infection followed by an animal jump. If COVID was human-made and not an animal-jump, that's still three deadly natural pandemics that we want this research to be able to prevent in the future.
There's also a misalignment on the sell side. Since the seller's agent gets paid a percentage of the sale price you'd think they're incentivized to sell at the highest price possible. But they don't make any money at all until the sale actually goes through. They'd much prefer to sell 2 houses at $125,000 than 1 house at $175,000 for roughly the same amount of time and work. Since cost is the only knob they control of the three affecting the time/effort it takes to sell a house (the others being condition and location), they are going to turn it as low as possible.
It probably marks the beginning of the end for the medium though

If your complaint is simply the money that tech is swimming in, I have some bad news for you about the state of the Internet since 1998. First there was the web boom (and bust) (which was supposed to change the world). (Arguably it did, but eg record labels are still around.) Then there was the the Web 2.0 boom. Then there was crypto, now there's AI. Outside of tech, the world still looks largely the same. American "capitalism" is still filled with inequality, with lots of misery on all levels, and we don't have any more free time than we did before (unless your startup lottery ticket pays out).

Sorry for letting my cynicism show, it's pre-coffee, but you'll forgive me for thinking this time it'll be different. It might be, but we've heard that promise before and should be a) just as skeptical but also b) just as enamoured. If you missed out on the crypto boom (and subsequent bust), you've got some catching up to do in this cycles boom (and bust).
I am not sure that actually, the intermediate site is even technically sending the image.

Wire fraud, wire fraud, it's nearly always wire fraud. Elizabeth Holmes, George Santos, Charlie Javice, all the people who got fake Covid funds - wire fraud, wire fraud, wire fraud.

In this day and age if you're committing fraud it's pretty hard for it not to be wire fraud given how everything is transmitted digitally. And penalties for wire fraud are extremely steep (up 20 years for each charge), and it automatically makes it a federal crime. So just don't...
> but the larger purpose of the code is obscured in all the "if err != nil" weeds.

That's the difference between script and system programming. When writing scripts, one is only concerned about carrying out a certain task and if anything goes wrong the whole thing can bail. Systems are more robust. When things go wrong they cannot just fail. They need to recover gracefully and do something meaningful in the failed state.

Handing failure conditions is the primary purpose of system code. Irrespective of Go, there is something to be said about some kind of identifier that says "take note: this is the most important code in the application!" If that comes across as being 'weedy', you know that you really needed a scripting language, not a systems language.

Different tools for different jobs.

From Wikipedia:

> Three men developed and created the Cheers television series: Glen and Les Charles ("Glen and Les") and James Burrows, who identified themselves as "two Mormons and a Jew."

> The original idea was a group of workers who interacted like a family, the goal being a concept similar to The Mary Tyler Moore Show. The creators considered making an American version of the British Fawlty Towers, set in a hotel or an inn. When the creators settled on a bar as their setting, the show began to resemble the radio program Duffy's Tavern, originally written and co-created by James Burrows' father Abe Burrows. They liked the idea of a tavern, as it provided a continuous stream of new people, for a variety of characters.

> Early discussions about the location of the show centered on Barstow, California, then Kansas City, Missouri. They eventually turned to the East Coast and finally Boston. The Bull & Finch Pub in Boston, which was the model for Cheers, was chosen from a phone book. When Glen Charles asked the bar's owner, Tom Kershaw, to shoot exterior and interior photos, he agreed, charging $1.

The problem is a /8 is too big to transact on. Somebody is going to ask questions, and then the scam will be unwound at best, you'll end up in jail at worst.

If he had taken a defunct entity's /16 (class B), it could probably have been marketed more directly. Although, I'm assuming this was long enough ago that it might have been still quite possible to get a previously unused class B from ARIN.
>Just like how, for Justice(hah) Thomas, same-sex marriage is a state's right/decision, but interracial marriage... isn't.

Banning interracial marriage was deemed unconstitutional based on the 14th amendment. The 14th amendment doesn't have any text about same-sex marriage. That's why it's left up to the states. (10th amendment)

> Car accident? Cops are ... undertrained

A small point, just one that recently ground my gears...

My step-daughter was recently in a collision. Her car and someone else's collided in the middle of a traffic lighted intersection. No intersection cameras, dash cameras, or nearby business security cameras, no witnesses.

Officer, "Did you have a green light?"

Step-daughter: "Yes, I believe so, I was moving with traffic."

Other party: "Yes, I definitely did."

Officer to step-daughter: "I am issuing you with a citation for failure to obey a traffic control device."

On what grounds? The other party was more ... adamant? The other party, who is biased (just as my step-daughter is, to be clear), who is also a potentially liable party?

Thankfully, that got contested and dismissed, but in the process caused a whole slew of insurance-related drama, and then court cases, where the other party attempted to sue her, and because she is a minor, it couldn't be in small claims court, etc., etc.

I have an appreciation for such "conspiratorial" thinking (using that term loosely since it's taken on a mind of its own in recent years), but mostly as a source of amusement.

I want to suggest that the idea is entirely preposterous and ridiculous, which it probably is, but where I would agree with your caution lies mostly in the time frame from which this manuscript originates. It's possible (although unlikely) it's been faked in some capacity since human history (and literacy) somewhat undulate over time and the period this originates was a bit more hostile to free interchange of information (even the article mentions that many of the source texts could have been destroyed as heretical). In such a case, the Hebrew texts have a substantially more solid provenance simply by virtue of their volume and because we have significantly older witnesses at our disposal from the discoveries in Qumran. For something that dates from the 12th or 13th centuries this becomes a little more difficult as, perhaps ironically, fewer witnesses to the material actually exist.

But, again, my argument against it being a significantly later fabrication is in the volume of physical materials used in construction: The binding, the number of leaves, etc., conspire toward the earlier dating since it would be virtually impossible to source that many original pieces of parchment or vellum that hadn't seen prior use (I'm saying this without any knowledge of this manuscript, but I'd imagine if the individual leaves showed signs of prior use they'd have mentioned it). These were expensive to produce when new.

The other piece of evidence in this case is that this appears to be a compilation of other works, specifically commentaries, on the text of the LXX. The article mentions that the Koine Greek used in the LXX was somewhat difficult for later audiences to read due to its grammatical peculiarities, derived from its nature as a word-for-word translation of (now lost) earlier Hebrew texts. Hence why in my lay-estimation the earlier dating is most probably correct. The probable destruction of source texts support this claim, but also raises the question as to how (or why) this text managed to survive.

You do raise a great point: Virtually every manuscript we have available is a copy of an earlier manuscript. No originals, to our knowledge, have survived into the present.
