"I don't get why only men are making this decision though."

I think it's how society treats them. I would think most other cultures have lower rates based on how men are viewed and treated in other societies.

At least in my view, men are expected to be strong, successful, etc. They are seen as providers (look at how courts treat them). So when you aren't working, aren't strong anymore, etc, some people aren't going to see their worth in other areas. In general men are expected to be self supporting (look at charities and welfare) and to support others (alimony, child support, main provider for family), so what do you expect when they've been groomed this way and can't take care of themselves and become a burden to others?
The fix is that AMD needs to develop, test and deploy a microcode update for their affected CPUs, and then the problem is truly fixed for everyone, not just the people who have detected the issue and tried to mitigate it.

Isn't it very likely that Chinese brands will also feature in the decision? From my sporadic reading here and there it seems they will be able to compete on price globally sooner rather than later.

Men of that age group are seeing their beloved 'old world' crumble and be replaced around them. I am one of the tail end of the old world types and I speculate that it adds up after a while.

It's odd going around town and seeing every landmark changed, all the mediums (film, newspapers and more) you loved be relegated to niche outlets. All the people that knew your world and spoke your cultural language are gone.

Memories stacked on memories e.g. this street address used to be a shopping mall, that used to be where my high school sweetheart first kissed me.

Add medical difficulty on top of that, family troubles and financial woes.

Men used to run the world and they were finely tuned for it.

You'd have to write a biography or book to get all that backed up change out of you.

Millenials are going to feel this very acutely, I speculate.
Well, it's true that it should be designed such that they cannot be plugged incorrectly. I would imagine it is indeed mostly designed in that way, but there can still be erroneous configurations that were not accounted for at the design stage.

Especially during testing you're often dealing with custom cables connectors and circuits that are different from the "normal configuration".

I would say that the lesson is to do as many critical operations under the 4-eye principle: someone is doing the thing, someone else is checking each step before continuing. Very effective for catching "stupid mistakes" like the one in the article.
But again, it is not always possible to have two people looking at one test, especially with timeline pressure etc.
So mistakes like these do happen in the real world.

> the most impoverished people in Sweden: the Romanian Romani

They might not necessarily be from Romania. At least from my experience next door in Finland, it has been very common for the media to write about “beggars from Romania”, but if you actually chat with the Roma beggars on the street or the bottle-returners in front of you in the queue, often they come from Bulgaria instead. Yet for some reason Bulgaria never seems to get mentioned, perhaps due to the popular confusion of “Roma/Romani” and “Romania” even though the words are not actually historically related.

Firing people is how corporations fund M&A. It creates an ILLUSION of growth for investors. The layoffs inevitably impact the business and that LOB's revenues will soften or decline over time as customers get frustrated with lower quality and poor service, and as they have fewer people advocating, selling, etc.
This is why M&A is, on balance, a JOB DESTRUCTION ENGINE.

Some people are inherently toxic. You should not assume good will, because they're motivated by antagonism and hierarchy, not a genuine need to solve problems together.

Worse, they're incapable of empathy. And they gravitate to positions of power. So the higher you go, the more likely you are to meet them.

Obviously it's wildly and unhelpfully wrong to suggest everyone you have friction with is like this.

But it's also unrealistic to ignore the existence of a personality type that can be incredibly destructive, professionally and personally.
The dynamic background technology being used now for shows like The Mandalorian and Star Trek changed the story

This is still very niche compared to normal vfx shots. VFX shots are everywhere.

So now they have to care about the 3D dynamics of the scene in a way they previously weren't required to

What does "3D dyanmics of the scene" mean specifically? Any vfx shot with 3D needs to track the camera, find the ground plane and maybe map out some simple geometry of the scene.

A way that video game engines have been wrestling to ground for decades.

What does this mean?
How the Biden laptop story was framed and shut down just before the election.
How it was a concerted effort between FBI, big tech and media done behind the scene.

Just curiosity... What does "ngx" mean in this context?

To me it means Angular (the web framework). So, I was surprised to learn this wasn't an Angular plugin. Angular is often referred to as ng for short and as such their plugins tend to have ngx as a prefix. For example, the angular wrapper for ChartJS is ngx-chartjs.

> wonder what make a right fundamental or not?

Well, of course there is a document for that (see "Article 8"):
https://eur-lex.europa.eu/legal-content/EN/TXT/?uri=CELEX:12...

> Some right, like the right to life, is illegal to sell.

Every "real" right can't be sold, if you could it wouldn't be a right. That's why it is for example impossible to give away or sell your copyright in the EU.

> You can't get unlimited education without paying.

That's why the formulation in the EU paper is as follows:

Article 14

Right to education

1. Everyone has the right to education and to have access to vocational and continuing training.

2. This right includes the possibility to receive free compulsory education.

3. The freedom to found educational establishments with due respect for democratic principles and the right of parents to ensure the education and teaching of their children in conformity with their religious, philosophical and pedagogical convictions shall be respected, in accordance with the national laws governing the exercise of such freedom and right.
By 2005 Google had such an insurmountable edge that there was barely a discussion. Microsoft started development in what would become Bing before that, and despite all their efforts were never really able to catch up to anything that Google was doing.

Yes, click data helps but really only at the head, where Google already excelled. On the tail the increasing dependence on click data (and later on machine learning and an increased focus on user-specific results) has steadily made Google worse and worse, and Google's supremacy has really only lasted this long because of their page quality measures, which is still a huge problem even now on Bing.

Paperless is one of my favorite pieces of software. A few years ago I got fed up with my filing cabinet full of folders & tons of documents that didn't quite fit into any of the categories.

I installed Paperless on my home server & spent a night digitizing everything. After being comfortable with it for a few months I went back & shredded all my paper copies. Today my process is similar - when I get a document I would normally toss in that filing cabinet I just scan, upload to Paperless, and shred it. It's also really nice for storing large purchase receipts - I've previously had the writing on thermal paper receipts go invisible after a period of time, no longer an issue.

Searching for something specific is so easy now! Huge QOL improvement. Just make sure you have a solid backup strategy, losing my Paperless database & filestore would be devastating.

Read the article I posted, this is "well known," but it's also, simply, a lie. No such dog breed exists. Your language is not imprecise, you are just spreading outright lies.

>Previous studies have examined dog skin and hair to determine the amount of allergens they contain, and have found wide variations among individual animals, but no consistent differences by breed.

>“I have no idea where this whole concept came from,” said Christine Cole Johnson, the senior author of the study, to be published online in The American Journal of Rhinology and Allergy. “It’s been around for a long time, and maybe people associated it with shedding. I think it’s just a legend.”

Nah, nextcloud is a reasonable enterprise file-sharing/collaboration tool.

What you are seeing here is a lot of people trying to use it as a file synchronization tool, and discovering that it's bloated beyond reason (because well, it's a file-sharing/collaboration tool) and the file sync functionality isn't even as good as you'll get from specialized tools.

The root problem is that nextcloud started as a file sync tool, and moved into other niche, and never bothered to communicate it.
Purpose. I suggest Viktor Frankl‘s book Man‘s Search for Meaning to anyone too hopelessly deep in contemporary nihilism.

Those are good tips. I would also add "don't engage with them on anything that isn't work-related".

I have a coworker who is difficult to work with because he insists on political conversations. "Don't engage" is working well there. Every time he tries to talk politics, I immediately shift the conversation to a work topic. I keep hoping that he'll catch the hint, but even if he never does, doing that still avoids unnecessary workplace strife.

I identify with Sapolsky's position. Plus, there's a shift in perspective which comes from adopting it. For example, instead of blaming someone for "freely making a bad choice" you can shift your attention to the circumstances that allowed for those bad choices to arise in the first place, and try to tackle those. I think it makes for a less blameful world.

> which is likely illegal in some areas

Do you have a source for that? Because that would definitely be the crux of the issue then.

The article itself quotes:

> "In its ruling, the CJEU expressly recognised that a subscription model, like the one we are announcing, is a valid form of consent for an ads funded service."

which suggests that it is not illegal. But of course this depends on whether the "ads funded service" includes tracking.

I can't find any clear answers from a few quick google searches. Of course, the existence of this lawsuit suggests that the law itself may not yet be sufficiently clear, and so the judicial ruling will ultimately provide that clarity.

It's not until you clear up that you're dealing with different things, with different names, that you can start to make the code clearer.

> The measure also prohibits the use of meat-related terms, like ‘salami’ or ‘steak’, for plant-based meat substitutes.

I mostly agree with this. Consumer protection laws should avoid this confusion in New Zealand, but they don't. For example the word beef is used for non-beef products - and they are stocked in the fridge section for beef. I guess it gets more pedantic if it is cultured cells. The product label should clearly indicate whether something came from a cow or not - without deception (similar to GMO labeling - which is about what buyer's think not what I think). The key is avoiding consumer confusion. Is a vege burger, or chicken bacon confusing? Steak is harder - Tuna steak, steak pie, steak sauce.

Outright banning safe products is authoritarian (not equivalent to right-wing - see Stalin) - and farmers should not get government priority over consumers.

But should a burger pizza be meat or not? https://www.wgtn.ac.nz/sacl/about/news/how-plant-based-meat-...

Something like Beyond Meat Beyond Beef seems highly misleading to me (titles and brand names matter - I don't want to read fine print nor should I have to memorize every product detail). Impossible Chicken Nuggets have (Plant Based) in the same font but lighter colour which seems deceptive to me personally (although presumably legal).

Hopefully our government can find the good compromise between consumers desire for plant-based foods, and meat industry abuse of consumer protection laws.

Show HN: Revamping UI Faces with AI-generated avatars
Hey everyone, just wanted to share a bit more about the recent update to the UI Faces plugin for Figma.

As some of you might know, UI Faces has been a helpful resource for designers over the years. I decided to make a significant change and shift the focus to AI-generated avatars. This is a departure from using aggregated third-party content, allowing for more unique and diverse avatars.

I'd appreciate your feedback, especially on:

1. How do you perceive the quality of the AI-generated avatars?
2. Thoughts on offering the product for free, considering its 200k+ total and 600 daily active users only on Figma?
3. Which other tools would you like to see UI Faces integrate with?
> It states that python is faster then c, that is not possible since python is build with c. There could be other reasons such libs or implementation.

In a really strict sense it's impossible to talk about the speed of languages, since any turing complete language could be implemented in any other. In practice when people say X is faster than Y, they mean in practice as actually used; it's completely possible, for instance, that if you ask a large pool of C programmers to... I dunno, sum ten billion integers, and the same to a large pool of Python programmers, most of the C devs will reach for a `for` loop and most of the Python devs will reach for numpy and get vectorization for free, and if that's the case then it's reasonable to say that Python is faster. Or in the actual case at hand, writing the same(ish) program in Rust and Python on the same hardware does result in the Python version being faster, even though it's a bug from that exact hardware not getting along with something under the hood in the Rust version.
