I know it's not deliberate, but since they know this improves results, shouldn't they modify the service so that it takes advantage of this sort of improvement automatically?
It's both: the borrow terminology from the MBAs, it's a win-win situation!
Of course it will. If you can say for instance change races when you move to a different country or fundamentally modify the human drive to be tribal, you can change a lot.

The weekdays currently act as a weak parity check.. if I said "let's have a meeting on Tuesday 12/8" you'd double check because December 8th isn't a Tuesday.

The weak parity didn't prevent a friend from booking a rental car in April although we were going to be in the destination city in July.. the days of the week matched!
Nice trick! Many people have mentioned that tmux lets you share terminals, though worth noting that it takes a bit of setup, doesn’t render correctly when you have different screen sizes, and requires stitching together a lot of other tools to work over a browser.

Personally I think being able to arrange and resize terminals adds a lot to the collaboration feeling, as well as seeing people’s cursors. I encourage you to give it a try! (it takes less than a second to install, and then you just run “sshx”)
No they can't give an example because it's a safe space
Interesting that you bring up LE as an improvement of the CA system. I view it as a fairly messy hack (with its own problems) around some of the faults of the CA system. I almost brought it up as an example of some of the faults of the system.

We both see the same thing, but through different lenses. I have no point here, I just found that interesting.
You can give your aid money to the local government, or you can use it to fund a hospital or research facility flying your flag, employing locals and hopefully generating good news so its continued funding can becomes a political tool. But this rationalization can only explain the poorer countries in the region.

You can’t game something when the maximum award is still designed to be Not Enough On Its Own. That describes quite literally every US government aid program— from food stamps and school lunch debt at the very bottom of the financial ladder, to grants+loans for those who have demonstrated the academic merit to get into college, to healthcare and social security for literally every citizen in this entire country.

There is not a single program in the US, by careful design, that can give “too much”. Yet we still spend so much money on the bureaucracy trying to disqualify anyone from their own programs.

Imagine how much we’d save, socially (less homelessness! no death for lack of healthcare! a more educated and informed country!) but also maybe financially, if we actually _gave our people what they need_.
The whole point of this exercise is to be ideally no effort or if not low effort. Cooking multiple dishes is out of scope here. The chicken is indeed frozen chicken breast from Sam's club or Costco depending on which membership I have.

Interestingly enough, the longer I cook, the dryer the chicken feels. At some point, the whole thing becomes one mess except the chicken withdraws and feels very dry. It isn't supposed to be a fancy feast. All I'm saying is it is an option for when we don't want to actually put effort into cooking.
I mean if you could hit the nail on the head more accurately and clearly: I’m not sure how.

People really don’t understand that launch costs are only a small part of reducing launch compexity, which is the side effect of larger payloads.

A lot of payloads aren’t even worth launching because of the high cost, but the payload that are worth launching are going to drop in complexity as putting them into orbit without stage deployment or super lightweight materials or any of the other massively limiting compromises we totally take for granted are going to effectively be history — that is exciting!
Okay. The article is about SV selling to America’s police.

America’s police has no problem acquiring arms.

I’d argue that, in effect, they’re already treated as arms dealers, who sell to police all the time.
i agree. make is a tool for defining recipes to derive target files from dependency files. archetypal use case would be compiling and linking a bunch of C source and header files into an application binary. make isn't specialized to building C programs, make can also be used for other file-driven computation tasks such as defining data processing pipelines / graphs of processing that consume data files and produce data files.

the rough essence of make is arguably:

1. there are targets, and recipes (written as a shell command) to derive the target
2. targets can express dependencies on other targets
3. targets are files in the filesystem.
4. add a bunch of language features on top (pattern rules, automatic variables, built-in functions, etc) to make it easier to write and maintain the recipes

Another way of thinking about make is that it is a a way to define and evaluate gigantic pure-functional expressions, where each input and output file is a file, and where intermediate sub-expressions can be cached.

for an alternative to make that supports 1+2+3+4, see e.g. https://gittup.org/tup/index.html

for an alternative to make that supports 1+2+3 but explicitly does not aim to support 4, see e.g. https://ninja-build.org/manual.html

another alternative to make that supports 1+2+3+4 but de-emphasizes 3, "targets are files", from the ruby community, is https://github.com/ruby/rake

these days in projects it is quite common to see make used to do 1 but not 2, 3 nor 4. i.e. a makefile as a way to define a bunch of imperative shell recipes for named targets, where each named target has no relationship to a file, and dependencies between the targets aren't expressed or relevant. as a random example of this, here's the first google result searching for "makefile terraform":

https://github.com/paulRbr/terraform-makefile/blob/master/Ma...

note all the targets are ".PHONY" targets, we're telling make to disable the default behaviour where every target corresponds to a file in the file system -- to turn off "3 targets are files in the filesystem". there's very sparing use of dependencies. so this is an example of using makes support for 1 defining recipes to produce targets and a little splash of 2 dependencies between targets, but not 3 nor 4.

it looks like this "jeeves" project is aiming at this latter use case, not attempting to implement support for 2+3, the core of how make is typically used as a build tool

A surface road being cheaper than a tunnel shouldn’t surprise anybody, but a single highway lane can move about 2,000 cars an hour (much less for city streets). Assuming all the cars have two people (they don’t) that’s 4,000 people an hour. A modern metro line can do 40,000 an hour (in Tokyo they’ll do 60K/hour packing people in like sardines). So you need a 10 lane road in one direction just to match the single line’s people movement.

Of course, the whole concept is moot considering the built form around said subway line needs to be able to support having ridership like that.
I don't hate grass, I actually quite like it. But I think a lot of people put way too much effort into lawn care, complain about the effort, and then stand on it maybe 3-4 times a year. At least those in my family do. Then they act surprised when I mention that I don't think I'd bother going though the effort to maintain a lawn. I'm not really interested in adding mowing a lawn every week or two to my chore list.

So, I guess I hate the expectation of a lawn more than the lawn itself.

I absolutely love Wolbachia. I did some work with Wolbachia in theoretical biology a long, long time ago.

They're usually only transmitted maternally and different strains came up with different strategies to maximise Wolbachia offspring: some strains prevent male offspring from developing, some strains prevent reproduction with Wolbachia-uninfected females so the infected males have only offspring with infected females!

You can make models of Wolbachia population spread with these strategies forever and ever :)
you don't need autonomy to be profitable.

Imagine a car rental service where someone in an office building drives the empty car to you, then drives it back when you're done with it. No taking public transportation just to get back to the garage to pick up the next drop-off. Imagine simply swapping the driver controlling a ling haul truck remotely when it's time for a shift change. With good handoff the truck can be driving 24/7 without ever slowing down.

Really the only autonomy you need in that situation is enough to pull the truck/car/whatever over and park it if the connection is lost.

OK this makes sense. Thanks for the explanation.
I agree with the posts above, though I will add that sandboxing apps like Insular work around some apps misbehaving when rooted where things like even Magisk hide fall short. I would unlock the bootloader, write TWRP to recovery and go that route somehow (rsync or something? I'm envisioning maybe plugging your phones to a usb ethernet adapter here, I don't know if it's even possible to WiFi or network from TWRP though so .tar.xz?).

Devices are a bit more complicated then they were just a few years ago, a cryptographic salt is stored somewhere, and the trim area (TA) plays a role, so you would run into trouble simply writing (dd) the /data partition to your second phone, but all you really need to do is keep the /data partition and /sdcard synced. Surely a script leveraging the features of TWRP seems like it should just work though?

Cheers, lovely question!

My close friend was scammed via interac and bank closed his account, cards, and he was banned from interac even though he was the one that got scammed. Bitcoin solves that, but Bitcoin has another issue why banks win - if you are scammed with your card - you get your money back or if you forget password - you still have your money, if you are scammed with Bitcoin - you basically lose, if you forget your password - you lose. Just depends on what spectrum you are.
That make can be used to run commands that don't build anything is just an artifact of how targets work.

If something is marketed as a make alternative, most people would expect it to, at the very least, possess make's core feature, which is skipping targets that have already been built and whose inputs haven't changed. That's what makes something a build system and not just a command runner.

Almost like we should just blanket-provide the same amount of aid and safety net to everyone, cut out any and all pre-qualifications, and completely change our tax system to ensure all costs are recaptured by a progressive tax system.

That way someone who used aid and becomes wealthy would pay into it in the future. Right now our systems more or less just keep you where you are.
> To seriously hold that all of what you have known was created for your experience

I don't think there's a solpsistic component to the idea that we have our own subjective realities. For one thing, it's about as true as we seem to be able to tell. For another, accepting it doesn't mean we have to be self-centered. Even our experiences of other people aren't objective; someone giving a speech can give very different vibes depending on who's listening. I read what you wrote, but do I really understand what you mean? In this case I have a pretty good idea, but there's no way I can be certain that we're on the same page. Our consciousnesses, our intelligences, are separate. We aren't in some hive mind; we are self-contained agents that interact with each other and gain our own experiences.
The nice thing about only storing the value when it's different from the current default and unsetting it otherwise is that anyone who prefers one theme never has to change it (because their system is already in that theme) or only has to change it one time and it will stay that way forever. But users who prefer the site to just Do The Right Thing can also have that behavior.
You are overstating how easy it is to track and how hard it is manage multiple addresses. As more addresses are used it gets harder and harder to track. Your employer will not have the resources to do it. Hierarchical wallets make it really easy to use and keep track of multiple addresses today, and more privacy schemes are in progress, see: https://river.com/learn/what-are-schnorr-signatures/

It's true that it is not completely anonymous, but it is a huge improvement over the current system we are discussing here. Add that to the other benefits Bitcoin has and I still feel like it's a huge win.

Here's also a flip side benefit to the public ledger. Businesses can, if they choose, cryptographically prove that they have the funds they say they have. Think of the value of that

One could argue that mortgages given out sub 2.5% became a problem when the fed funds rate went to 2.5% by mid-June. Additionally, a US deregulation wouldn’t explain house bubbles elsewhere at the same time. The truth is that when interest rates are low, debt is more attractive but when/if rates rise, many borrowers and lenders will suffer. This became especially problematic when Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were able to compete very strongly with government money and gain massive swaths of the market. The other lenders were then pushed into rather unsafe behavior. Thing is, how do you regulate subprime lending? If the answer is just to refuse the “dirty poors” you’ll eventually have an extremely angry and desperate underclass, hence the creation of Fannie and Freddie in the first place. If you outlaw derivative markets you’ll be outlawing an avenue for legitimate hedging, and you’d end up with even greater consolidation of many markets into the hands of even fewer participants. While deregulation did directly lead to the consolidation of the banking system after the crisis, and certainly didn’t help prevent the crisis, I wouldn’t consider it a primary cause.
And neither a neutered male nor a spayed female are actually sexless--you still refer to them as "he" and "she". They are merely reproductively disabled.

Here is my thought that helped me intuit it.

Every image is taken from a specific point. Every image that you ever see, every image that will be, is all taken from a specific point. There is currently no image that is taken *not* from a specific point. Even 3d images.

The question of the thing in itself is like asking, "How would this pencil look like if not seen from a specific point? There should be some way to answer this, after all, why would a description of something needs something else in its specification?"

But then you start to realize how utterly impossible it is to imagine how something truly looks, when its not viewed from any specific point.

Cause we just never ever seen such an object ( a true image ).

More likely, the targeted mosquitoes are outcompeted by other mosquito or small insect species that are just as useful to whatever was dependent on the targets. There's an obvious exception for if some plant is exclusively pollinated by some disease-carrying mosquito, or other bet specific relationship, but that seems unlikely and easy to detect in advance.

People in these discussions forget that there are lots of mosquito species, most of which don't transmit diseases.
