That's ridiculous. You're telling me if I took naked pictures of you and posted them in front of all your friends and family you would feel nothing.

For a site that screams and cries about privacy of IP addresses and privacy of what sites you visit - apparently posting naked photos isn't a privacy violation?

Human beings feel vulnerable when they are naked, and exposure like that is humiliating. This is not a western society thing, it's a human nature thing
I would think of it more like software development if hardware remained the same rather than science. Yes there are shifts in paradigms based on what the use cases of the day are (and what the perceived shortcomings of the previous paradigm were), and yes there are some things that will be widely agreed to be advancements, also dead ends.
You may or may not like FreeBSD. A lot of the packaging concepts in Gentoo came from ports (hence the name portage). FreeBSD has binary or source packages that can be mixed, is stable, and is slower moving than Linux (in a good way).

That's thought-provoking. I've had a couple of the other adults in her life recommend it as a good, wholesome way to satisfy her curiosity about computers and games. All else being equal, I guess no gaming is best (I personally gave up gaming as a senior in high school to pursue a better life) but I also feel like prohibition results in its own problems.
Same thing in New Zealand. If you can't get something worked out with your bank you complain to the ombudsman and the bank must respond. Sometimes, even the mention of a potential ombudsman complaint is enough to grease the wheels.
I just assume that this would only be resolved at the Supreme Court level. Any local court decision would be challenged by Twitter.

Trading is what makes it possible to become an investor. If there was few actors to either sell or buy your stocks when you entered your long term positions it would be that more difficult to become an investor.

In other words trading provides liquidity.

I really wish people would stop applying the "flat 32-bit" revisionist history to the 386. That wasn't its obvious target, but rather picking up the important "capability" arch features which were seen as the future before unix/c/risc/single supervisor/ideas destroyed the previous 30 years of mainframe/minicomputer OS research in things like security.

So, what this article fails to really clarify is that the segment registers were now basically "selector" indexes into tables with base+length (in either pages or bytes) fields, execution permission controls. And these selectors and the GDT/LDT/IDT/TSS/call gates/task gates/etc were all designed to support OSs with a 4 level permissions hierarchy, user/library/driver/kernel (or similar), passing around access selectors which could do things like enforce the size of data structures, etc. And to support this, they added FS/GS so that all the general purpose registers could have their own permissions masks.

Pause for a moment and consider that again, Pointers (capabilities, aka selectors) can have not only a base address, but a hardware enforced limit, along with a permissions model that means a function like strcpy() would be incapable of writing to any memory that wasn't the target buffer or part of its own scratch space. Languages/os's could have enforced that called functions were unable to write to the callers stack, or even possibly run in their own completely separate stack. And that is just the beginning.

So, here nearly 40 years later the industry is still trying to recover from the mistakes of designing OS's and programming languages around flat memory models and simplistic user/supervisor permissions models. The 386 provided hardware assistance for writing OS's features that to this day aren't common.

My cat has a particularly keen sense for when dinner time is. He starts reminding me at 5PM, often on the dot. One could probably set a clock to it.
You are right, jeeves doesn't do that. Your example reminds me of how I first learnt to use Make; I built my LaTeX stuff from source when in university.

However, dealing with Python mostly in my time in the industry, I scarcely ever had the need to use these particular features of Make. I used it as a task runner, guilty of that, — and that's what I wanted to reimplement in Python.

Even writing in Rust, everything I have to do is `cargo build`, — there is no need to write Makefiles for building the project.

I will consider changing that wording to set proper expectations, but I still feel that for me "a Pythonic alternative to Make" perfectly conveys the use case I daily employ this thing for.
Is that specific to the UK? Here in California we have all-day-long surpluses of photovoltaic power from January to June.

Even today it would be tough to make that mechanism work, although there are still watchmaking companies that could do it.

I wonder if one of the various YouTubers with a CNC mill might be able to build a replica --- that would be a video (series?) I'd certainly watch. The tolerances involved would be extremely difficult 250 years ago and probably involved much manual trial-and-error, but are likely not out of the ordinary for a modern machine shop.
Its nice that the 286 gets some love here too, that chip was really underrated considering how much better its IPC was vs its predecessors, which is largely the main ding against the 386. Running existing 16 bit code its IPC was basically the same as the 286, and given its initial 12Mhz clock rate, was pretty underwhelming. It wasn't until the clock really started to scale and people started using the 32-bit capabilities that it was anything more than an expensive dos/286 competitor.

Who falls for fake news? Psychological and clinical profiling evidence
I am not sure whether this is a good idea:

"In this paper the authors analyzed the symptomatic differences observed between two groups: (1) people who effectively discriminated online fake news, and (2) people who ineffectively discriminated online fake news. The symptomatic differences were based on four personality disorders, symptoms that characterize psychotic spectrum disorders (PSD), anxiety, and addiction disorders. The main objective of the study was to find out whether symptom levels of the disorders analyzed increased or decreased as a function of the individual's ability to detect fake news online."

Maybe they should be profiling the purveyors of disinformation, the propagandists, instead. In fact, they explicitly take the role of a propagandist themselves in this piece, supplying the participants with information they've concluded to be false. Besides, a lot of questionable assumptions and papers cited. Given the situation during the pandemic, the approach is completely bogus to begin with:

"The COVID-19 fake news test consists of 18 statements about coronavirus; 6 false (fake news), 6 true, and 6 indeterminate (i.e., due to lack of evidence, it was not possible to establish content veracity). To ensure validity, statements were worded according to the World Health Organization (2020) guidelines for identifying true and false news. After reading each statement, participants indicated whether content was true (“YES”), false (“NO”), or whether they were uncertain (“?”). For each correct response a point was awarded, other answers received no points (errors were not penalised). Correspondingly, total scores ranged from 0 to 18 points."

"The duration of the sample collection was 7 months (from March to September 2021)."

Now, at minimum, they should disclose what were the true and false statements in 2021. In other words, the "correct" answer during that time would have probably been "uncertain" (?) to all items asked.
Flippantly: science accretes ideas, while philosophy sheds them. In other words: the progression you perceive in science (and mathematics, etc.) has historically occurred because of parallel progressions in philosophy. That has been less true of science for the past century, but it's still very true of mathematics.

> Is that also a progression of insights in a similar way?

Yes: Western philosophy is a "tradition" in the sense that it has a clear (branching and twisting) lineage from pre-Socratic thought to contemporary philosophy. There are lots of commonly recommended "history of philosophy" books that can provide that overview; Russel's "A History of Western Philosophy" is a commonly recommended one.

Diane Van Deren is an ultra runner who had part of her brain removed to treat her seizures. It also affected her ability to perceive time and to read maps.

She originally started running to self-treat her seizures, but eventually running no longer staved them off.

Oddly, not being able to perceive time may have benefitted her running:

> Dr. Gerber credits her endurance in part to her brain limitations. He says runners who can better track time and map where they are can be distracted by the details. But Van Deren has a special facility for what he calls “flow” that lets her transcend the anguish of running long. “It’s a mental state,” Gerber says. “You become enmeshed in what you’re doing. It’s almost Zen. She can run for hours and not know how long she’s been going.”

I've tried to schedule him for food and he just won't go along with it at all.
They are exactly arbitrary placeholders absent branding and use. The National Pumpkin Resellers could make use of an NPR handle just fine.

For a Python project, I'd recommend doing this as a dev dependency.

* jeeves is the name of the project which I'm advertising, which converts a Python file to a set of commands;
* `j` is the name of executable which aformentioned project exposes;
* and `sh` is the library (the correct link to which you have provided) which is an optional dependency of `jeeves` and provides a more convenient interface to calling processes and executing commands from Python than `subprocess.run()`.

https://www.bankersonline.com/ is a place where people working for banks in BSA compliance, hang out. Based on my reading of that forum, there is a push from BSA auditors to file more and more SARs. Also, anon comments like the following from an old NYT article validate what I see publicly on bankersonline dot com. Also look at another poster's comment: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=38158017

"Banks are under tremendous pressure by regulators to file a certain amount of SARS (as a ratio of overall transaction activity, which is determined by the regulator - regulators have a secret bogey for each bank). A shortfall from the number expected by the regulators for a bank will result in the bank being penalized by the regulator as having an inadequate BSA program (even if the bank compliance staff reviewed the activity and didn’t find anything worth SAR reporting on). If the bank fights this censure for not filing enough SARs the arbiter of justice is the Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) department of the FDIC or OCC. They rule in favor of the regulators over 99% of the time.) For example California Pacific Bank- a tiny bank serving the Chinese trading community with 200 customers and 500 accounts - was persecuted for more than 5 years for not filing enough SARs, it’s hearing with the ALJ is on YouTube. Even though racist anti Chinese comments by the regulators were unearthed in depositions, the ALJ ruling still went against the bank. Furthermore, banks are required to review ongoing activity of SAR’d customers and file follow up SARs if the “typology” of suspicious activity continues. Bank BSA policies have the requirement that repeat SAR subjects will need to have their accounts closed. Most banks therefore just file SARS on anything that matches a typology and close accounts- that’s just how the BSA regulatory system works.” [1]

Pumped storage and hydrogen are, paired with wind or solar, much, much cheaper than nuclear power.

We'd even be better off if all solar and wind power were converted into hydrogen first and only then turned into electricity. Not because thats cheap but because nuclear power is that expensive.

Nuclear power only becomes cost competitive when you use it to share costs with the nuclear-military industrial complex - which is why it is built.

I've heard this argument before but I think it's silly. Maybe people will always value their sexual privacy? There are benefits to not living in a hypersexualised society- Even though the genie isn't going back in the bottle with this one (AI Generated), in an ideal world we wouldn't have to treat this massive invasion of privacy as a given. This isn't a solution, it's a concession.

Some social norms still have value and erasing all of them in the name of self determination and 'social safety' may push us into uncharted territory as a culture- the modern world has already made us impulsive enough.
