The comment quality standards required for people to reply and/or follow you are higher now. Tweeting often is useless if you have nothing really substantial to say. There are millions of accounts that do that, and they’re mostly noise disguised as signal, but most of the Twitter community has caught on and now auto-filters it out. You’ve gotta get through that auto-filter now with information or insights of substance, and those simply take longer and more effort to generate, there’s no silver bullet.
"less harried" is not how I'd describe Costco. Just getting into and out of the one in Seattle is like visiting a theme park. Once you manage to find parking, you give up your personhood. You're now just part of the slowly moving mob with carts.

Its not so much a conspiracy as just not as big of an issue compared to diesel consumption

About 11 thousand barrels of 100ll are produced every day in the US. Compare that to 4.9 million barrels of diesel daily, and you can see why it is a bigger priority. In this case 100ll is a literal drop in the bucket.

But also its a rich guy hobby that generally isn't very visible.
If I'm on my regular nightly haunting mission, and I decide to speak to the new owner of the house that I'm haunting, how do I convey to them that I am really, actually, truly dead? I could say, "I'm literally dead", but they would think I'm laughing at their joke they just made!

If the answer to this is to avoid the word "literally", and instead replace it with "really, actually, truly" (like I did above), then I might just decide to retire from haunting.

I think it would make sense if screens detected ambient light and adjusted brightness to match (like smart phones do....) so this is just a clever way to do just that with low tech. But a high price. So yeah, I think it might just be better to take the existing technology in smart phones and apply it to laptop and desktop screens.

I'm old enough that IRA isn't the only confusing thing. When I see Net zero I think of the old ad supported free dialup Internet provider.
Well, it is supported across all major operating systems and almost all browsers: https://caniuse.com/?search=webauthn

Password manager support is optional (though at that point you're using a passkey as a re-authentication method, which is nice but doesn't take advantage of the full potential).

That leaves website support. Hopefully more and more web sites will enable it. https://passkeys.directory/ is a list that do.
Twitter isn't about people connecting, or even about advertisers and making money.

It's about controlling the national conversation. Anything noisy enough on twitter will be picked up by hungry media of all sorts, so a steady stream of disinformation can exhaust any real governance feedback cycle.

Elon bought Twitter so he could be a player in national elections.

(And the death of authenticity hasn't been particularly slow. It may be that people who sacrificed time and loyalty are blind to the possibility that it was a complete waste and a huge mistake to enable this.)

I now wonder if PayPal will be merged with X. That's a hell of a "comes full circle" story.

yes but the crime of Burglary is about gaining access to a space by force, so the crime of auto-burglary requires entry by force to then commit some other crime (the theft you mentioned).

It's unclear from the article why the underlying theft can't be prosecuted, probably less penalty.

Also make sure your backup channel can scale. Getting a flood of 10,000+ folks over to a dinky IRC server can knock it over easy. Throttling new joinees isn't a panacea either, since there might be someone critical to get on a channel which throttling can complicate.
I worked at HubSpot for a year before their IPO and a year after. They used this approach of basically spinning up multiple different teams in different orgs to solve more or less the same problem.

For example, before they figured out how to sell and onboard SMBs, there was at least three teams working on solving that problem while I was there, including mine.

Once there was a “winner”, that team would get more funding (aka budget) and the people on the other teams tended to be absorbed into the winning team or would be repurposed onto other projects.

This wasn’t a codified, explicit operating system, but basically is how they worked for awhile (but I’m unsure how it works now.) The gist was to hire smart people and let them figure it out.

> If everyone pirated Marvel movies then Marvel would not be able to make $100+M movies and these movies would not exist, which is a contradiction. Therefore piracy violates Kant’s categorical imperative, therefore piracy is unethical.

Here is where your use of the categorical imperative breaks down: creating an economy that prevents Marvel from making movies is not in itself unethical. Undesirable, perhaps, but not unethical.

No one is entitled to have their favorite business model work regardless of whether or not it makes sense in a given economy.

in my opinion, ebike accidents are following the same pattern as motorcycle accidents pre-hurt report. make sense. From a road handling perspective, both vehicles are functionally identical. Singletrack, small contact patch, counter steering, navigation, situational awareness, and braking skills. It's long past time requiring a ebike driver's license showing that one has taken a skills focused training course like the MSF program.

As long as they're not cutting out moments before a crash to shift liability at the last second I don't see the problem.

Having worked with Sales and Marketing teams in various ways over the decades, I have found that they are focused on making something engineering useful into uselessly pretty and engineeringly dysfunctional.

They seem to have in their brain-pans the idea that people really like pretty things over actually functional things, which might be true of the general populous.
> which is believed to be different from NP and hence a strict superset of P

“a strict superset of P” doesn’t really follow from that. P is also believed to be different from NP, and P is certainly not a strict superset of P.

Of course, I assume you just misspoke slightly, and that whatever it is that you actually meant to say, is correct.

E.g. maybe you meant to say “coNP is believed to both be strict superset of P (as is also believed about NP), and distinct from NP.”

I think it is believed that the intersection of NP and coNP is also a strict superset of P, but that this is believed with less confidence than that NP and coNP are distinct?

I imagine I’m not telling you anything you don’t already know, but for some reason I wrote the following parenthetical, and I’d rather leave it in this comment than delete it.

(If P=NP, then, as P=coP, then NP=P=coP=coNP , but this is considered unlikely.

It is also possible (in the sense of “no-one has yet found a way to prove otherwise” that coNP = NP without them being equal to P.

As a separate alternative, it is also possible (in the same sense) that they are distinct, but that their intersection is equal to P.

So, the possibilities:
P=NP=coNP,
P≠cocapNP=NP=coNP,
P=cocapNP≠NP,coNP,
All 4 are different,
(cocapNP is the intersection of NP and coNP)

Where the last of these is I think considered most likely?
)

When you search for recipes, how many recipes do you view before you decide to make one?

It's a stretch to call it fraud when there's no guarantee what you make at home will look like what's made in a test kitchen. I challenge you to try to do food photography well at home without thousands in photography equipment, props, the actual dish, and expertise in making it look enticing on camera.
You don't need a fancy monitor to not strain your eyes. You know you need? Lower brightness or more ambient light.

This is something I've been saying for ages. Some time in the last 10 years or so, it seems we decided as a collective that screens should be SUPER BRIGHT, and now half the tech crowded uses dark mode.

If you "just like dark mode", that's fine. But if you avoid light mode because it hurts your eyes, then your brightness is too high or you don't have enough ambient light.

I sit at my computer 12-16 hours a day. Yes, I know, it's pretty unhealthy. But I have never felt eye strain. Even after getting LASIK and my eyes were a little more sensitive to light, I could stare at my screen all day after the first day.

This may not be as grave as it seems. They'd been selling EVs at a -100% profit margin (i.e., a $50k Ford EV costs them ~$100k to build) and their current vehicles are built with obsolete charge ports.

Seems wise to circle the wagons, get costs under control, and ramp up in a year or so when their NACS vehicles are ready.
I mean. Ok.

The majority of human beings are not people who hold values I want in this country. Do I want someone who thinks that heretics should be killed? Women should be circumcised? China should be sterilizing minorities in Xinjiang?

Liberal democracy works when the population has a common baseline of enlightened values and mutual respect for the system they work within, I am not apologizing for attempting to maintain that.
this is clearly a thing that has happened, and it is a crucial link in the chain, but there's still a missing link.

wouldn't it be more profitable if those recipes happened to have low caloric density, like coca-cola? then you could sell each customer six meals a day instead of three, and they'd be more profitable because they'd mostly be made out of water, which is cheaper than deodorized canola oil and palm oil, much less potatoes, texturized soy protein, mechanically separated chicken, and beef. you'd maybe have to include enough cellulose and xanthan gum to make it seem solid, but that wouldn't overcome the cost savings from removing the expensive calorie-bearing ingredients. it's even legal!

yet fast-food consumers have been gravitating to the macronutrient-rich menu items, not texturized carboxymethylcellulose jello, which would undoubtedly be widely available if it sold well. so they are following their homeostatic regulatory system to seek calories

their homeostasis is just broken

what broke the homeostasis?

i don't think it's an intentional thing or even a means to improve sales. if wendy's breaks your homeostatic feedback and mcdonald's doesn't, will that help them competitively? no, because their metabolically damaged customers will still eat at mcdonald's, except for the most loyal ones. if wendy's goes out of business, it'll take a generation for mcdonald's to see the result in terms of declining sales. even then, they're unlikely to be able to recognize that the demise of wendy's is the reason for their troubles

it's plausible that it's nothing more than 'ultra-palatable food makes you overeat, which disrupts your homeostasis'. but i'm skeptical of that because people seem to be able to eat very palatable food occasionally, or even often, without disrupting it
Dickens' account of his tour of this place (and he was all for the "progress" solitary confinement represented then) makes it seem like the worst kind of torture. However, it stuck out to me that, at that time, solitary prisoners were _provided with hand work of their choice_. So today's version is more barbaric.

Ex: Mathews v. Lucas, 427 U.S. 495 (1976)

The Plaintiffs argued that they were denied Social Security benefits because they were "illegitimate" children of their father even though the plaintiffs were able to prove that they were related.

The court held that among other reasons, because as defined in the Declaration of Independence that "all men are created equal", that there was no differentiation between a "legitimate" child and an "illegitimate" child in the eyes of the government.

There's a few other cases, but that's one that I've studied the most.

Also, "illegal alien" is an outdated term because implies an individual's entire existence as "illegal," which is dehumanizing

The "outdated" critique is Orwellian - an attempt to language police and limit the scope of debate by reframing the words and terms used to discuss a complex issue. Newspeak's purpose is to limit freedom of thought and control the population. The aim is to restrict the range of ideas people can express, thereby limiting the range of ideas they can even consider. When we start policing the term "illegal immigrant," we run the risk of narrowing our debate and discussion surrounding immigration policy.

It's also worth considering the consistency of this argument across different domains. For example, nobody is advocating for softening the term "illegal miner". In these contexts, the term "illegal" serves to accurately describe an action that is against the law. It doesn't mean that the individual’s entire identity is reduced to that action, but it does indicate that the action itself is not in compliance with existing laws.
