I get that people don't want to underestimate someone as bad as him being president again, but at the same time, he's not even going to be on the ballot in Colorado, he's pretty much already finished as a politician.
This is actually exactly right in my opinion.

I went from being a self professed “introvert/ambivert” from the age of 16-35 to “extrovert” by the time I was 39 by recognizing my massive unrealized trauma.

Not completely there but I can manage my CPTSD with my care team and actually love love being around people. The difference is the kind of people I’m around and how i treat myself.

I think the majority of people, myself included, are just walking trauma bags that have no self-awareness of their trauma, triggers and are primarily reacting to the world.

Very few people are self-realized and contextually aware of their environment so they are operating with a very limited and narrow observation-action space compared to what they are capable of.
Do some companies take the approach you mention? Sure. But for the most part your post is just complete hyperbole, straw manning literally every new business in the most extreme way possible.

> That is all that 'init' ever is, or ever was!

Except it is not. The "init" process seen by users as PID 1 on the usual Linux distributions is far from the first program started by the kernel.
There are usually hundreds of processes started before that PID 1 process gets started.

> maybe 3 years (1000 days) of flying to date per aircraft on average

It's probably a lot less. 950 out of those 1300 aircraft were delivered in the last three years, and the other 350 were grounded throughout most of 2019 and 2020.
This made me go look up whether STEM includes psychology and medicine. Wikipedia says "depends how you ask." In any case, William James trained to be a doctor and is considered the father of American psychology. If you've read any of his stuff, he was certainly not science illiterate.
Which is not to say I disagree with your point. However, it turns out a lot of people, especially the really smart ones we've all heard about, aren't easily characterized as STEM or non-STEM. That includes all the AI researchers I know.
Uridium maybe.
This is not correct. This attitude was nurtured by science's most successful public mouthpieces. Stephen Hawking and Neal Degrasse Tyson have been running around for decades telling everyone that the humanities are worthless. Young students, unfortunately, listened to them on this subject. A real tragedy, I think.

Carl Sagan would have been a much better steward for science today, as he had a very healthy respect for the relationship between science and humanities and the latter's value for understanding our world.

This dangerous rift goes back even further. See C.P. Snow's lecture "The Two Cultures".(1)

EDIT: Not sure how this slipped my mind, but Sean Carroll is exactly the kind of representative of the syncretic relationship between sciences and humanities that ought to be the default, rather than the exception.

Just about every airline I’ve ever flown lets you see what kind of aircraft they’re using for the flight you book. It’s pretty easy to avoid flying on a 737 max if you want.
If you're interested in something like Adelie Linux, you might be interested in Chimera Linux. Both are musl libc based and both use Alpine's apk.

* Chimera Linux uses BSD userland while Adelie uses GNU coreutils

* Chimera has the dinit init system / service manager while Adelie uses OpenRC

* Adelie uses gcc as far as I can tell while Chimera uses clang as the default system compiler

* Chimera uses the scudo memory allocator rather than musl's default memory allocator. Scudo is apparently faster than musl's default allocator. Not aware of what Adelie does.

In general, it is not clear to me why Adelie should be preferred over, say, Alpine. The differences don't seem that significant to me to make a switch from Alpine, if you currently use it.

Full disclosure: I use Chimera and I like it. In particular, I like (a) clang/llvm usage as default compiler (b) the lovely and elegant cbuild package build system

A recent Chimera Linux article:

I credit him with giving me the push to just be what I am, that it's ok to have a garage full of strange machines just to enjoy and learn. That was huge for my young self, who hadn't seen anyone else in tech in their life.

And don't worry, I've got Aussie50's entire channel backed up, myself. I'll post it if it ever goes down.
That’s not what I’m talking about, I’m saying the logic was “something like columbine will never happen because …” like ok, famous last words. Technical proficiency is your contribution here and I just disagree with it. It’s not like drones are (a) hard to fly, (b) expensive or (c) access restricted. Kids my age at 13 were making backshed napalm out of pure fascination.

And also I’m pretty sure the columbine kids were trying to build a bomb, so there’s your technical proficiency request.

Like I said buddy, I hope I’m wrong.

My argument is less about the identity politics and the modern idea of "diversity" and more about how Bluey does not fall into the "stupid overconfident father / smart sassy mother" trope that is pretty much the rule in Western TV shows since maybe the Simpsons?

The IRS just does some very simple checking and then mails your refund (or accepts your payment) - the actual processing/checking of the return can happen months if not years later.

A good example of why to avoid the opinion section. The former Republican governor of Indiana believes in his gloomy predictions of the future, and they are indeed worrying. Yet Republicans have consistently held to Reagan's Laffer idea of supply-side economics, and Gingrich's rule of no compromise. The world, the US, and both parties within the US have some serious challenges to tackle. They are not on the horizon, they are here. Daniels should not be surrendering or prophesying, he should be leading his party to the table for collaboration and compromise. Democracy works by keeping both parties in check, but requires contribution and input from all sides. Come back to the table, we've got real problems to solve!
Beware the paradox of averages. I bet a lot more than 99% of people have some wrinkle with their return.

One person has a wash sale, another has some real estate stuff, another became disabled, another has child care stuff, another has education credits, etc etc etc.

Actually now I am curious how many people file the “simplest” return (wage only, standard deduction, and absolutely no other adjustments).
Really cool, hope it was open source
"Whatever the reasons (market pressures, rushing processes, inadequate certifications, fear of being fired, or poor project management), Leveson’s insights are being ignored. For example, after the first fatal Boeing 737 Max flight, why was the entire fleet not grounded indefinitely? Or not grounded after an Indonesian safety committee report uncovered multiple failures? Or not grounded when an off-duty pilot helped avert a crash? What analysis procedures failed to prevent the second fatal Boeing 737 Max flight?"

Cool, thanks. So probably a factor of ~2 fewer miles, or twice the accident rate.

Driving is an absurdly dangerous mode of transportation, so it’s probably not the best comparison.

NZ mostly buys second hand vehicles from Japan, so new vehicle sales numbers are low.

As someone from Mexico, it's honestly insane that our system works as good as it does compared to the US.

1. All my incomes are automatically filed.
2. Each month I say "yes this is correct" on the website, and pay immediately via any bank.
3. At the end of the tax year, the system calculates if they own me money automatically, I give it my bank account and in some days I have my return.

It even handles tax deductibles and everything.

Who cares? The age-old comparison against cars is just to illustrate that flying, on average, is safer than driving, which most people intuitively don’t “feel” to be true (or at least they didn’t back in the days).

In this case we’re talking about a company that consistently makes mistakes and puts their passengers lives at risk due to negligence, whether “it’s still safer than driving” or not is completely irrelevant, because what they’re doing is not OK no matter how much safer it is than driving.
in other words: capitalism, the system we've designed our whole society around

It's honestly astonishing how well the A350 held up for evacuation, which supposedly took 10 minutes. This is the first hull loss, and it actually improves the safety record.

Tools for transclusion, inserting parts of other docs and rich references to them:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transclusion

i.e. I refer to lobste.rs and Hacker news stories in posts like this:

https://www.oilshell.org/blog/2021/04/build-ci-comments.html

I wrote a bit of (offline) JavaScript to do it, but I could see it being expanded. I find it makes the posts more like a conversation with others

Twitter/Facebook do this with OpenGraph <meta> tags too

Also better support for keeping the source of diagrams and images synchronized with the post. It’s sort of a build system problem

I thought that Joel Spolsky was doing something like transclusion - https://blockprotocol.org/

Though maybe it’s a bit different.

The holy grail is to have both a nice GUI/rich text preview and also “plain Unix” formats like CommonMark / HTML. It seems like you have to choose one or the other these days.

There is an adage: every social app is a dating app if you are creepy enough.
"its backwards" Probably but we both got the idea I was pushing - which I stand behind. The cost in electricity vs gas does tilt towards electricity but that excludes the cost creating and the lack of recycling options.

"recycling happens all the time" Sure for some stuff... but electronics are not in a good spot on recycling.

https://cen.acs.org/materials/energy-storage/time-serious-re...

2-5% of batteries are recycled. in 2019. You think the numbers have gone up that far? I don't think so.

That's not counting the environmental damange done getting "the most richest sources" into a usable state.

"no way" I'm talking reality... not could be. should be. will be.

Is.

Today? Shit isn't recycled. IE: Windmill blades

https://www.bloomberg.com/news/features/2020-02-05/wind-turb...

One of the key pieces of the green "solution" is filling up landfills with megatons of unrecyclable material.

And that's not talking about the "cheap" batteries.

https://www.businessinsider.com/electric-car-battery-cost-re...

Batteries are expensive. Insurance is expensive. Getting materials is expensive (and destructive). Recycling electronics and batteries is expensive (and thus filling up landfills).

I'm sorry but at the end of the day? The "solution" of green tech is no solution so far. It's simply promises and ignoring the problems because gas "stinks".

"Shit is real" my above statement is real as are the problems with "green".
> Does anyone know why Wirth never modernized his style?

Readability. It's easier to read the source code with uppercase keywords. (I think Wirth once said that code is written once but read many times). See this source code - https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rochus-keller/OberonSystem... - to get an idea of this (the uppercase keywords allow you to easily scan the blocks of code). Ofcourse, one can claim that the same can be achieved better today with colour-coded keywords.

If it really bothers you, I think the Oberon+ IDE - https://github.com/rochus-keller/Oberon - gives you an option to disable this and use lowercase keywords.

First new model: the X-wing.
Are you sure of that? I've read that it is the same or very similar to an emergency exit, except that the interior is covered by an interior panel. It would be uncovered and equipped as an emergency exit in cases where very tight seating would bring the number of passengers above a threshold requiring more emergency exits. And down the rabbit hole I go wondering if this non-equipped exit is new for 737 MAX planes because they can have more rows of seats.
Amazingly pretty! I'm not international enough to have a personal use case for this, but I admire the skill that went into this. Are you open sourcing this at some point?
Warren Buffett is probably the great exception to the rule of Billionaires pretending to live commonly.

Most of the other "oh I drive a Honda" or "I live with roommates" origin stories turn out to be factual, but incomplete as we find out they have roommates in a $20M penthouse / commute in the Honda for optics but have a garage full of luxury vehicles / own 27 homes / etc.

Kind of like the classic Steve Jobs "hide the Porsches" story.

That said, I bet Buffett owns at least 2 MacBooks?

Both cars are plug in hybrids - you need to charge them externally to get the most out of them. BYD needs literally 5x the electricity of the Volvo(50kWh Vs 10kWh) for the same range, so the owner is definitely going to notice it on their energy bill.

Which the article says shuts down immediately when the vehicle starts floating. So maybe it mostly serves as the same reverse status symbol as snorkels on other SUV.
I didn't say inherently. E.g. if you draw a graph of what age people have kids it's going to show you that the older you are, up to a point, the more likely you are to have kids. Kids are a massive expense, up to and including dictating where you live and how big it is. That's not inherent, hence why it's silly to invent that straw man, but it is a trend.

As for age discrimination: is only letting people vote at a certain age, age discrimination?
Now our family unit is not cash starved and can afford to wait, so in the past, before I started using the US Free Filing system I described in another comment, I always mailed in both US and AZ income tax forms. Sometimes it took a couple of months. The US form I think was pretty prompt occasionally.

Now we're also not talking a lot of money. +- a couple of thousand, usually less. But you would have to compare apples to apples which would be the e-file fee vs. the compounded inflation rate for the time difference in receiving, presumably, your refund. I suspect it's a wash.

You need to also factor in the ${turbotax} fee and/or the accountant, as well, if you don't actually fill out the forms yourself.

Fun fact: We moved from AZ to GA last year, and dutifully filed in each state. I am pretty familiar with AZ due to filing our own taxes for most of 25 years, but GA is much more complex, verbose, and quite stupidly, even aggressively, vague.

I produced a spreadsheet for my wife to evaluate that presented my first time interpretation of the GA partial residency filing. We're both B.S. ChE, she's an MS ChE, I'm a MS App. Math. So we know our numbers. The tables were low risk, low refund, medium risk, medium refund, high risk, high refund. She chose medium risk. Fine with me.

Both AZ and GA refunded something like 50% higher than what I filed and expected.

Some sort of emoji here.
I think I follow the proposal, but I have a few questions.

It sounds like you enter your email and then you'd get an email with the session key. You mention copy/paste, why not use a URL with the key embedded (typically after a # as this part stays on the client)?

I think you'll need to send Javascript down to the client to perform the encryption. That code needs access to the session key. Unfortunately, if the SSL session is invalid (like a MITM attack using a self-signed cert) then the attacker can inject their own Javascript to steal your session key.

Is the session key stored in local storage? Is anything protecting it there? I think, similar to a JWT, it can be stolen.

This is unfortunately a hard problem you're trying to solve.

it's unpopular because IRS only goes after low-level tax cheats, not the already-rich ones who steal far more, and funding them more doesn't change that priority. similar to police.
This is because the humanities got taken over in some sense and filled with mumbo jumbo. Technical people don't want to touch that with a ten foot pole.

Besides, science used to be very much a "thinkers" only thing, because only those people went into studies instead of just being laborers.
