The medical profession starts from "First, do no harm." for reasons learned quite painfully over time.

This is directly in opposition to "More Dakka" for good reason.

Claiming chemotherapy as a success directly undermines almost all the other arguments. Chemotherapy is an unmitigated disaster--it's just the only thing we have most of the time.

Chemotherapy is going to be one of the things that future doctors study and laugh at and will be calling our era the "Dark Ages" of medicine.

Yes, but giving something worthless but expensive is not a real tangible proof of commitment. "Here is something I paid too much for" is less meaningful than "here is something very valuable." Something valuable says if you are bad to her you'll lose out and she will have something to show for the commitment she reciprocated, something expensive that isn't valuable says I'll behave how you want to keep you around.

In India they give gold jewelry, that makes a lot of sense. Their cultural reasoning about it is very different (it's a financial investment that ties families together) but the act is better IMO.

Oh very cool, I wish I knew about them when I got my current phone (Galaxy S23 Ultra). I would have been much happier, will definitely keep them in mind next time I'm in the market for a new phone.
Thanks, this explanation makes much more sense. However, it's still misses the fact that dopamine involved in our lives very widely, and addictions can be developed to practically anything. "Normal" games are a good example, as well as obsessive buying, or aesthetic procedures, caffeine, sugar. All this things (and many more) can become uncontrollable, and dangerous to the point of death. When people demand something to be prohibited because they got moved by a story of a poor soul destroyed by addiction they must realize logical implications. Like way more people affected by alcohol than by gambling, and yet at this times most people would point you that prohibition didn't work.
My employer recently implemented "all gender bathrooms." All that meant was a couple new signs and disabling and taping off all the urinals. So now 75% of the toilets are permanently out of service and there's more pee on the seats.
The irony is pretty intense.

What makes it more accessible?

I suspect the answer is that screenreaders don't look for all clickable elements and are naively focusing only on buttons.
> Who and where are you getting your sources? If you're watching/reading Cable News or a subset of niche blogs, you are completely out of the loop of where the actual conversations and discussions are happening.

That Zeihan threads the needle between not being the brightest most connected in DC, but giving geopol info better than most of the crap there is. Since I’m a layman, I personally have an info diet from Zeihan, Caspian Report, Dmitri Alperovitch, and the DC think tank Institute for the Study of War, a long with the occasional book like Prisoners of Geography and World Order.

How much range when the car is in a parking garage and you are in a condo, restaurant or similar, ie both surrounded by concrete?

Besides an app allows much more than a simple on off.

Not saying you should have to sell your privacy for ut, but there are some potential positive things by having the car connected to the cloud. So if there's a way to do that without the shenanigans then that might be good.
The style presented is far from the norm at the moment not just because of gate-keeping and over-engineering, but because web software is refactored and improved so many times over.

For example, <summary> only supports a weird set of child tags. Personally I like <details>, but due to this constraint it is not always appropriate. Certain aspects of its native style cannot be controlled.

Many event handlers are awkward encode into onclick if not impossible.

"Naked" HTML requires a lot of boiler plate. The form helpers that are discouraged relate to validation, error reporting, form authorization, and localization. It's not an obfuscation layer.

The encouraged styles are easier on the eyes for now, but it's easy to imagine them developing into issues which would be the subject of some ticket, or else disappearing due to general improvement to the code base (DRY principles, SoC, UI touch ups, etc).
I might sound like an asshole, but if she's upset enough to leave you over that you should let her go. I wouldn't want a wife like that, personally.
That two-window approach was particular useful where you needed to be able to rearrange the order of the items.

Now we tend to have a part of the record appearing to have texture (stripes or bumps) as a clue that grabbing it will afford pushing it up or down.

There’s many little common standards like that which have never appeared in “out of the box” controls provided by the platforms.

It's not necessarily about manipulation, it's about not being codependent. If every time your partner is unhappy, you freak out, your ability to be a good partner is diminished. Couples need some buffer between their emotions to dampen extreme lows.
Did anything actually force the issue though? The comment said that they closed the other six doors, but I don't see any implication that people pushed back in any way that improved the new two-door situation.
A concept created at least partially to resolve this paradox.
The tl;dr, as I've gleaned from what I've seen so far, is that string theory is a failed theory with a good PR department that has been saying "we're on a cusp of Einstein relativity-like revolution in physics" for about 40 years now. And the fact that the recipients of these PR have started to realize they've been duped is causing the general public to embark on an unwarranted backlash against other branches of physics.

Great and short article about the importance of being able to explain something.

Medical students have the phrase

See one,
do one,
teach one,

when it comes to learning a new treatment or diagnostic method. I like that because it has the repetition baked in and each iteration one needs more depth of understanding.

According to the article it sounds useful to add a fourth one:

Write it down.

In order to make it more easy to relearn the thing if you forget it.
Being a good store of value, is itself - a value. It's not entirely arbitrary because you need quite a lot of characteristics to make it fit. It needs to be relatively widespread to encourage widespread acceptance of its value (rather than just granting Goldland a defacto king-maker style monopoly on wealth, which nobody beside allies of Goldland would recognize), relatively scarce so you're not requiring hundreds of tons of it to cover even a moderate national level transaction, it needs to be safe to handle, stable, solid at any practical temperature, and somehow relatively easy to verify the authenticity of. I can't really think any other element that fits the bill as nicely as gold.

Put another way, if we look at all the parallel realities of Earth, even prior to the discovery of gold, I suspect the overwhelming majority of them would end up using it as a major store of value. It's just really perfect for it! We may even find alien civilizations, assuming a comparable elemental distribution to Earth, doing the same!
I have 20 years experience actually making things. I have seen the UAW in Detroit, I’ve worked in education and tech… I’ve seen how the sausage is made, so it is infuriating when HN-types, or progressives, or anyone really start on about “well, what we need to do is” if they have never actually made a thing in their lives… well; I guess I value the “I’m just talking to talk” flag… and what an amazing coincide “the solution” is to tax me more! Everytime, what are the odds!? :)
It is almost impossible to run anything modern on Pentium era machines, and not just because of speed. Even Tiny Core Linux states the absolute minimum of 32/48 MB of memory to be able to boot core+busybox and core+busybox+graphical screen, respectively. These are substantial Pentium era specifications. 128 MB is recommended, which moves the point a couple of years later, and, of course, a bigger number would help.

Frankly, something that resembles more or less modern desktop with some multimedia capabilities, and more or less modern browser to be used to look something up on the Web starts much later, at 2+ core CPU comparable to a fast Core 2 Duo, and 2 gigs of RAM, which is not outside of range of many general purpose distributions. (Yes, quite a lot can be done on a fast single core CPU with just 1 GB, but there are gotchas and pitfalls.)
Eh, I’m fervently anti-diamond (they’re silly imo), but I can acknowledge that, to some, they represent (I think?) a lasting commitment and are a cultural tradition.

If the desire is emotional, then there’s no reasoning with it anyway. (And not everything in life need be logical.)
If you want to use a counterexample to refute the general idea about additions, you need to pick one that fulfills the preconditions, like being differentiable. x → sin (1/x) is not differentiable at 0 and for any other value where it is differentiable, there's a small ɛ and a linear function L such that for all a and b < ɛ, sin(1/(x + a + b)) = sin(1/x) + L(a + b) + O(ɛ²) and because L is linear, L(a + b) = L(a) + L(b). The wrinkle is that ɛ might have to be extremely small indeed.
Beer was made in ancient Mesopotamia and they didn’t kill themselves by methanol poisoning, so we can go back pretty far.
>> University administration declared that from now on, 100% of doors on campus must be handicap accessible.

>> A week later, six doors were removed from my building...

> In defense of the school, this forces everyone to confront how bad handicap accessibility is.

No, that can't be a defense of the school. The decision-makers could have decided to make improvements so at least some of those six doors became handicap accessible, but they didn't. Instead they decided to take a cheap action that imposed costs on others in order to make an empty statement.
So the magic (or sleight of hand, if you prefer) seems to be in

> You just need to install the WasmEdge with the GGML plugin.

And it turns out that all these plugins are native & specific to the acceleration environment as well. But this has to happen after it lands in its environment so your "portable" application is now only portable in the sense that once it starts running it will bootstrap itself by downloading and installing native platform-specific code from the internet. Whether that is a reasonable thing for an "edge" application to do I am not sure.

Jewelry can be an investment, or a way to save capital. Gold jewelry is pretty good for that, actually rare gemstones (as opposed to diamonds) can also be, silver is alright in this regard.
It is certainly true that the parent can do both jobs. However the spawn is a much smaller model that can be in a smaller machine.

Totally agree. I enjoyed owning my S9+ and even though I was someone who used to root and ROM my older Android phones, I didn't really have any complaints about the Samsung "bloat" some people love to complain about. Even though I have a Pixel device now, I still use Samsung's browser as it is far superior to Chrome or even Firefox imo (I am a diehard FF user on desktop) and I even had to install a 3rd party app to replicate Samsung's "panels" application for a swipeable side app drawer which I loved and found extremely useful on my S9+.
Meaning we should focus on money as a tool of coercion, rather than as a means of permission?

Except that it's interesting that prime numbers have led inordinate numbers of individuals to devote uncountable but significants chunks of their lives investigating them.

It's not their fault that they're leftovers when an artificial grid is created by crossing-out every multiple of 2, 3, 5, or other prime numbers. Yet for some reason this seems to give them a fascinating aura for many. Maybe naming them 'prime' instead of 'leftover' is to blame.

I don’t think asking for money is the issue- it’s the overall handling of the situation on the researcher’s side.

If you’re only trying to collect bounties, you should go to a bug bounty website and work on sites that are explicitly soliciting bounties - that way you aren’t wasting your time finding vulnerabilities on sites that have no interest in paying out, and you can see which types of vulnerabilities are in- and out of scope.

On the other hand, I don’t think it’s particularly rude to shoot an email over explaining the vulnerability while at the same time requesting compensation. But gating information on the vulnerability behind a request for compensation is not appropriate.

Tried to use the Fitbit inspire 3 on my iPhone, but it kept losing the bluetooth connection after a few hours and notifications would not go through.

In adversarial systems, the prosecution's objective isn't to reach a truth, but instead to fight to convict you. This incentivises dirty tricks, misrepresentation of facts, and ultimately the full force of state resources looking at putting you behind bars. And during this whole process you are often locked up anyways for this process, independent of actual guilt.

In that model and imbalance of resources, having statue of limitations in place alleviates the need for defendents to, for example, keep records of their actions and reasoning for 30+ years. How would you navigate being charged for tax evasion from 35 years ago, for example?

EDIT: to be clear, I don't think this is necessarily a precise defense of statuetes of limitations specifically, just a "well they're not a bad idea" sort of defense

I think the point they're making is that you'd have the same problems with developers working HTML-first. Accessibility does not simply come for free in either situation, you need to make sure it's present.

Choosing, for example, whether to use a div with a click handler, or a proper button, is a decision you need to make regardless of whether or not you're using a framework.

So it seems incorrect to say that you lost accessibility in this case due to the framework. You lost accessibility due to developers who didn't understand the web platform well enough to design proper accessible controls. If they hadn't used a framework, they'd probably still not have made the site accessible.
And this is relevant to everybody else because... ?

Positional goods have real effects, mediated by other people, in a way that astrology doesn't directly.

Reducing the role of such things is often good life advice, and pushing back on mined diamonds in particular is morally motivated as well, but I don't think it's right to consider it the same as astrology.

Cost, availability, and speed.

Salaries more often than not, costs a hell of a lot more than compute and energy bills cost. If you have a 10k cluster, you're probably a mega-corp running a few teams sharing the resources running experiments in parallel to each other and themselves.

Now this is an very much so an overestimate on the actual cost of compute, the $10/hr/GPU cost is in all likelihood still significantly cheaper than the cash you pay to your researchers, and all the things that are needed to support them. Unless your team of researchers is about 10 people running very efficiently and making use of ALL the GPUs each hour of every day.
