This is easy to test. Create 6 dating profiles: Looks: (1) below average, (2) average, and (3) above above. Then, man vs woman. Now watch what happens. There are lots of YouTube videos of people who have done it. It is stunning how much more attention goes to the most attractive men. Average and below attractive men will get almost zero attention. If you go deeper, and continue past the like to a conversation, it becomes more striking.
I have to apologies it must be my commenting that you keep missing my point. I was referring to the writting in that blog on Amnesty International website. I don't what's it to do with Amnesty Inter but my point being it is a stretch to conceptualise '法家' relating the so called 'Rule by law'. Obviously I didn't study law or philosophy but unless you're an expert in the area I doubt that it is an established main stream theory. Just because it's published by Harvard or Cambridge press isn't necessarily a guarantee of high quality research or unbiased reporting.

I can easily find this book from Oxford which I consider garbage what typically we find in party education courses.

I don't know much about the Baby, but wikipedia says it had 32 words of memory and 7 instructions. Surely that won't be hard to emulate but will be an absolute pain to use. No wonder it only ran three different programs. There's an emulator here: https://www.davidsharp.com/baby/
When I've seen this (and found myself doing it) it's been because we're trying to do something with TS which we would have done easily in JS.

But the JS function we would have written would have required someone using it to read and understand it, and the TS function (without using 'any') needs to fully express what its inputs and outputs can look like.

Because of this TS actually tends to guide me towards writing more "Grug brained" code, because I refuse to use 'any' (and throw away TS benefits) and using generics usually requires a trip downstairs for a fresh cup of tea.
Tracking is considered a negative action, so there are stronger protections around that.

It depends on what accuracy you aim for. Most of aren't spies that have to 100% pass as natives of the county. It's still nice to pronounce e.g. place names that have irregular spellings (and that's common in lots of languages besides English).

I would be VERY surprised.

To someone with experience in that area of UX, a 95% opt-IN rate is ridiculously high.

A 95% consent-rate would already be hard to achieve as opt-OUT.

For opt-in a 95% rate would require both attention AND consent from 95% of the audience at this stage in the setup wizard.

I highly doubt that it can achieve 95% attention, let alone 95% consent.
Would be irrelevant, because the DNT-header will be sent with every request, so for all practical purposes will be later than any other kind of consent.
That's an impossible reading, tracking requires informed consent. Blanket "do whatever" consent can never be informed.

Besides, if you gave users a free choice, as intended by the law, no one would consent to it.

I'll be buying the Max this year, upgrading from an M1 Pro. The Max actually started making sense, because there are more performance cores and memory bandwidth is bigger. I don't much care about GPU: I wish Fusion 360 ran faster, but Autodesk doesn't seem to care much about Mac performance. What I do care about is CPU for Clojure development work, and for that the new Max actually makes sense.

In the M1 generation there was no benefit from going from Pro to the Max.

Nuclear actually ended up keeping the world mostly at peace. Unfortunately, AGI is not something you can use to create stability via MAD doctrine - it's much more like bioweapons, in that it starts as a weapon of mass annoyance, and developing it delivers spin-off tech that bolsters your economy... until you cross a threshold where a random mistake in handling it plain ends the world, just like that.

So you're going to find these people anonymously, now? How? You'll have to ask a lot of people before someone agrees to actually set up a fake company for you, you'll also have to find ways to pay them without losing your anonymity, and they will have to explain at some point to the tax authority where this unexpected income came from and what the company they've set up actually does.

If it was that easy to hide your tracks police would never catch criminals, but they do. Every time you increase the complexity of the scheme the chance for mistakes goes up.

Autism exists on a multi-dimensional spectrum. Dimensions include restricted interests, anxiety, social awkwardness, difficulty reading faces, sensory processing issues, unusual motor of verbal behaviour, among many others. You can think of these characteristics among all people as being distributed like bell curves, and we use the word autism to describe people who are on the tail ends of these. This can also be described as "having autistic traits".

These characteristics tend to be correlated, as well as with neurological differences. But it's important to remember that they are blurry distributions, and also that every autistic person will lie in different points along these characteristics. It's even somewhat conceivable for two people to be autistic and share no autistic traits.

Autism is not by itself a pathology. However, if an autistic trait is especially pronounced, it might cause clinically significant impediment to a person's ability to take care of themselves or integrate with society (especially modern society — more on that later). We can then speak of ASD, or Autism Spectrum Disorder, which is a clinically recognised diagnosis. Many people with ASD also have a learning disability, but certainly not all.

While many difficulties autistic people face are intrinsic to autism, a significant proportion also come from stigma. Modern society is conformist, especially in the working world, and the natural needs, behaviours, and mannerisms of autistic people can conflict with expectations of professionalism or convention. So, high-functioning autistic people have a tendency to consciously or unconsciously learn to imitate neurotypical behaviour, sometimes at great expense in terms of energy and self-identity. This is called "masking".

It's a matter of definition whether we use the word "autism" to refer to this cluster of traits or the clinically significant disorder. Indeed, I think the word used to refer exclusively to the disorder, and it remains controversial. Many people, especially carers of people with low-functioning ASD, feel that saying autism is not an illness trivialises the genuine difficulties they experience. I am very sympathetic to this, but ultimately, I think that without this word "autism", many otherwise fully independently functioning people who fall under the umbrella are left with a void to explain their feeling of difference and social exclusion, and it is bad for society as well, as it pushes autistic people to suppress traits that could potentially be extremely valuable. So, I advocate for this autism vs ASD distinction. But reasonable people can disagree.

I hope you found this useful as a primer on autism, or at least of this autistic person's understanding of it!

It's kind of like those people who didn't believe covid existed until their family members started dying of it. It's really easy to hold such views when the idea of a dog attacking is an abstract idea. When there isn't a real understanding of the level of danger an attacking dog has.

What I'm saying is that you're holding this opinion due to your ignorance.
Agreed that the stigma is unnecessary and likely stops many people from getting the support they might find helpful.

In my case the hearing damage is not sufficient to warrant a hearing aid, but it’s also enough to make it hard to understand conversation when there’s background noise. I don’t have the numbers on this but I’d assume there are a lot more people like me, who benefit from added clarity in specific situations, who would not need or even qualify for an actual hearing aid. In those cases a device you already have and use in other context hands down wins over a specialised medical device.
If someone speaks in an unexpected accent, even if it's an unambiguous and internally coherent accent so that it's perfectly possible to understand it it takes a few seconds for well-meaning natives to adjust to.

"Efficiently priced insurance": do you mean so the insurance company can set your premiums based on a more-accurate estimate of your risks?

The whole point of insurance is (or was) pooled risk. The more the insurance company knows about my risk (even risks I don't know about), the less point there is in me buying insurance; I may as well just put my premiums into a private sinking fund.
I don't think it's lock-in or billable hours. I think "staying current and employable" is a much bigger influence on behaviour than either of those.

Also, I think most developers just don't want to do the same thing twice. And most developers really are writing the same software over and over again through their careers, with minor changes. So they need to change something to keep it interesting, and the only things they can easily change are technology and methodology.

Defund the police was an inherently absurd idea. It especially bothers me that proponents gave no reasonable explanation for what happens next after defunding[1] and many seemed to have no appetite for reform. Portland was kind of a poster child for this. Just look at how things have changed after their budget slash.

- Police staffing levels are at critical levels [2]

- Violent crime has shot way up in 2021 (along with the rest of the country) [3]

- Things got so bad so quickly that in just a year millions of dollars were added back to the budget [4]

- Things have continued to get worse relative to the rest of the country (which has seen crime drop back down) [5]

When someone believes that there's semen in a beer, or they go to church, or they reply 'thank you for your service' to someone on the internet, that doesn't have real consequences for people. It might get spoken about in the media sometimes, but it's more just a side-show.

When a stupid slogan ruined the best chance America had for wide police reform in decades, that does have consequences. Even more now, nobody (who should be a cop) in Portland wants to be a cop. Lower class communities that need more patrols don't have them. People don't feel safe in their houses. Who do you think took the brunt of this: those who chanted the slogan, or those in the huge minority ethnic groups in East Portland?

And the most critical part about this: defund the police was treated with some amount of legitimacy by the media because it was their in group saying it. It should have been treated as the fringe belief it really was. Imagine if that airtime was used to campaign for reform. The real frustration of it all is that it was a zeitgeist that could have been an opportunity for real reform, and really making people want to be cops. Instead the moment was pissed away by a dumb slogan, rather than constructive debate.

I'm confused. The original article is in favour of typed languages. Aren't you in agreement?
It could be theoretically as powerful as a ps5 but not nearly as performant. Game studios are not spending any time optimising for apple silicon and dumping tons of dev hours to make sure it runs smooth on the console.

Sony uses its custom graphics API (GNM and GNMX) and custom shader language and x86 platform. Xbox uses DirectX. Apple went in on its own route with Metal. That widens the gap.
I am not sure this is even required. A (German) legal court order could also be used across the EU as a case law.
Why would I write my own JS when "hx-get" does the job? Writing your own JS makes sense in some cases, but using HTML partials is also useful in many cases where you need to talk to the server anyways (since they e.g. prevent logic duplication). HTMX just makes it easy to work with them, as they're a single attribute away, rather than doing the request and insertion by hand.

Native clients are deliberately out of scope, but scraping HTML isn't the suggested solution. Rather, it is having a JSON API next to the hypermedia API: https://htmx.org/essays/splitting-your-apis/. This does have the downside of duplicate work, but does bring stability to the API without introducing something like GraphQL.

And yes, you will need to learn HTMX to use HTMX. But the surface of HTMX is generally quite small, and composes well with knowledge about HTML/CSS.

taken to the extreme, if complete data availability allowed to predict the future with enough precision, then everyone would pay an insurance premium corresponding to their insured negative events.
