If you came up with clothes to compare, it fits well this comparison. You can wear shitty clothes, look bad, but if you’re comfortable, then it’s ok for you. But you tell others you look great, and truly believe you look great. And want others to look like you. That’s the problem. Keep that to yourself if you aren’t about to learn at least some basics.
Okay, I thikn the problem is, when someone says that something is "sent in plaintext" that usually means that it's interceptable. However, in this case, maybe, the author means that "it's being sent in a form that they can use, not just being stored like LastPass or something". Of course, the entire point of the article is that it's being sent in a format that they can use to connect to your server, so it's a strange statement to drop in the middle of the article.
Thanks for the reply. It seems like it is similar to how a cat is.

Is this not the problem that needs to be addressed.
Looks like the rich and media have successfully made a scapegoat out of immigrants when the actual problem is the money accuring to the elites and government inefficieny in improving housing supply.

But the problem with the loudness war isn't the loudness per se, but the loss of dynamic range: if everything is as loud as it can be, there is no room for emphasizing anything.

It's like, if you are always shouting, you can never raise your voice.

Which is exactly what is happening with full contrast websites: if everything is at max contrast, there is no room for emphasis.

"... Antibodies to the parasite..."

Sounds to me like it is a correlation to T. Gondii, via the antibodies. Perhaps that suggests it's an immune response that is contributing to frailty, not infections directly?

>The "musical loudness war" is completely irrelevant and makes no sense in this context either. Turn your speakers down if your ears are hurting.

Recorded distorted sounds are still distorted regardless of your volume setting. Loudness war making people's ears hurt isn't solely due to the volume. If you can't tell the difference between piss poor mastering vs something properly mastered and being able to recognize them when you hear them is one of those "ignorance is bliss" things in life. However, once you can tell, you can't not hear it once it's present. The only way volume fixes it is when volume is set to 0.

You just have to have a binary ID and maybe "pronunciation" fields too, for each song/album/artist entities in the database schema, that are on UI sanitized/normalized by searches and loose matches.

It's not worth dealing with regularization and mapping rules between ASCII and whatever artists insist on using, like slightly different style of T used only in Western East Antarctic. It'll be just a String whatever.

I agree in the abstract, but people and companies operate under bounded rationality. Customers can't easily price the expectation of lost luggage. Companies are made of subunits with independent budgets, each optimizing for incentives with short time horizons.

McDonald's is actually a good example, they did exactly this. IMO one reason their brand has been devalued is death by a thousand cost cuts. Each cut is imperceptible and seems like a win. But over several decades the net effect is a disaster. (IIRC Fast Food Nation documented some ideas about this process)

Did you not look at the data I sent you? Singapore has the lowest drug use among almost all countries. Not just a little low, but massively lower. The only countries better off then Singapore tend to be countries where the citizens can't afford drugs.

What you heard is wrong. And the google results you sent me is cherry-picked data in service of the articles agenda. Did drug usage increase in Singapore in the last year? Is that a 0.1% increase to 0.7% from the year before while the US sits at 40% usage rate? Come on bro.

Insofar as it maps to anything that has special status in copyright law distinct from making a copyright-violating unauthorized copy, it means making a copy of a computer program (not any other kind of work, such as an audiovisual recording) of which you own a physical copy to safeguard against the risk of destruction, media failure, etc., of the original copy.

("Personal archiving" is also commonly used to refer to making backup copies of one's own works and documentation that one owns that is not creative work subject to copyright, but that is less relevant here.)

> Von Neumann's remarks also took place in an era before we allowed the Soviets to arm themselves to the degree that they posed a serious nuclear threat to the United States. The pop culture notion that a nuclear war between the US and Soviet Union would entail both sides completely eliminating each other in the first day of hostilities was arguably never completely accurate, but especially in the early 1950's it was not even close to true.

Actually, Von Neumann coined and pushed for mutually-assured destruction, so it didn't matter if it wasn't in popular culture; He himself was possibly the most familiar with the concept of anyone. So it's not correct that he made these comments without proper context. He was wrong to be violently anti-communist, but MAD ended up being a crucial doctrine.

In terms of quality, hardware suffers also problems due to increasing complexity. Errata sheets of highend SoCs can be rather intimidating on their own already.

And it is this complexity which drags down performance as well.

Not that I'm trying to change your mind, but some specific things that LLMs do for me:

- Helping to refactor SQL

- writing jq commands (I simply cannot)

- writing shell code (it happens just infrequently enough that I can't justify spending the time to get good)

- brainstorming names or puns. Word association is easier with a second person (or an LLM)

- figuring out why my AWS CLI commands aren't doing what I'm expecting them to be doing

- asking for reasons why a piece of code wouldn't work

I can competently do all of these things on my own if I havw to, but now I don't have to do them on my own so my life is easier.

fundamentally disagrees with the headline of this submission. All we can say is that there might be a link between serointensity and frailty. It is entirely plausible that the link has nothing to do with T. gondii in particular, and that it's simply a correlation between general infection and frailty. But that doesn't make for a good clickbait headline.

$53M for 1K tons of capacity vs 37B tons annual mitigation needs, assuming 20 years amortisation, and purchase price being about half of the total lifetime costs including financing, which is typical for renewable energy systems, resulting in ~$200T a year vs $165T world GDP, so yes, oops, 1.2x world GDP :) which is still kinda too costly :D

The concern for me is that they have a perverse incentive. They aren't interested in maximizing the effectiveness of the care I receive, they are interested in minimizing their own costs. They should be held legally accountable for any negative effects their input has on me.
No, in the US you can be refused service, except that you cannot be discriminated against in public accommodations on the basis of status in a protected class.

Everyone is in multiple protected classes.

For public accommodations, all of the following are protected classes under Title II of the Civil Rights Act of 1964: race, color, religion, and national origin.

Everyone has a value on each of those axes, and everyone is protected against discrimination in public accommodations on the bases of each of those.

The decision to refuse a sale is always discriminatory.

It just can't be discriminatory on the basis of a protected class.

Oxygen really likes being connected carbon so spitting it off takes a lot of energy. All the things you mentioned burn in oxygen for exactly that reason. Making them requires at least as much energy as you’d get back by burning them so is hard to justify right now when instead you could make it directly from the carbon in things like fossil fuels and not have to spend all the energy to spit oxygen off first

It's not the manufacturers (as in, the factory that makes the device). This has to do with inclusion of play services (I.e. An OEM like Amazon cannot ship incompatible Android forks if it wants in on the GMS/play services/play store ecosystem).

This would prevent Amazon from shipping those but they wouldn't be refused by factories.

With the rapidly changing world, we must equip ourselves with such massive changes.

Sometimes it is very time-consuming to choose a good place to start. I want to ask, Whom do you ask or which sites do you rely on?

Like, do you just pick a book, or take a course or follow a GH repo, or do some research?

Can't comment on the comparison to Rust, but I recently spent quite some time learning OCaml, working through the excellent and freely available cs3110 course https://cs3110.github.io/textbook/cover.html ; I really really wanted to like the language... I agree w/ the submitted article about the heavy reliance on linked lists and recursion, but what disillusioned me from it is that after many weeks of study I discovered competitive programming and on a whim started doing some easy problems.

Since I was spending most of my time w/ OCaml at that point I thought it could also be a way to practice it further. So for a particularly easy problem it would go something like this: A straight forward, easy to read, performant C++ solution took me 10 minutes; an ugly unidiomatic OCaml version took me 30 minutes; and a beautiful idiomatic OCaml version using recursion that still no non-OCaml programmer could ever read took me something like an hour...

It really dawned on me that after weeks of studying OCaml I barely knew how to write anything particularly useful in it from scratch. Dealing with user input/output still seemed cumbersome, given everything's immutability... from an intellectual perspective it feels interesting, and I had fun with it, but for now I decided I couldn't see myself becoming productive enough in it to justify further sinking time into it. There's so much to still learn for me (doing a network related project at the moment learning a ton about networking, sockets, etc), that trying to become an unproductive OCaml programmer probably shouldn't be high up my list of priorities... and that is not to say people aren't productive in it, that's to say that I don't see myself becoming productive in it any time soon, compared to being productive in C++ while being far away from being any expert in it.

Maybe I'm too stupid for it, am not suited for it, need a few years of further programming to appreciate some things about it... but for now, sadly, I feel like I've wasted significant time I should have better spent on studying other topics and actually working on projects. And addendum: Never comment on downvotes, I know, but how I immediately got one for this comment... surprising.
> In the interim I wish they would stop beating around the bush and simply call it "not a straight White cis man".

That's not what "protected class" means, in any of the contexts in which it is used (employment, public accommodation, housing, etc.)

To the extent it seems like it means that, that's only because, well, the historically privileged are more likely to be in a position to discriminate in favor of those like themselves.

In each of those contexts, race (not "being non-white") is a protected class; it is just as illegal to discriminate against White people in any of those contexts as it is to discriminate in favor of White people.

For each of the other descriptors which actually relates to a protected class, it works the same way where it does.

> It's far fewer words with the exact same meaning as listing all the things that are 'protected', and has an air of honesty about it.

It doesn't have the exact same meaning at all.
It isn’t that simple though.
