Slightly different take: it was a state contract fulfilled by the company best able to impress state procurement. Quality is rarely on the agenda for this sort of procurement, because if it goes wrong they can blame the management who were overseeing the implementation. Thus it was unlikely to be great from early on.

My kid (10yo) started programming in Scratch 2 years ago. He have been doing stuff in Scratch, dabbling a bit with the Microbit and doing some mods for Minecraft. A while on pico8, but he doesn't enjoy it.

I'd suggest start with something really small for programming. Like most of Scratch basic challenges. Also, for modeling, checking the 2 or 3 basic MCreator videos plus Blockbench tutorials is enough to start creating mods in Minecraft, something simple as adding a new mineral is a groundbreaking moment.

“Find a job you enjoy doing, and you will never have to work a day in your life.”
― Mark Twain

This quote probably has less meaning now than it did, but I think it still holds. Part of this though is finding joy in doing things that you don't naturally enjoy. There are miserable or lazy people that will not enjoy anything other than self pleasure.
I'm still on a x230 I've bought 12 years ago (which was also manufactured in around 2012) as my personal daily driver. I replaced the keyboard once as I preferred the x220 one, replaced the battery every 4 years, and wouldn't even consider "upgrading" to something else. I mostly write C, Guile and Perl code in Emacs on this machine and spend another large chunk of my time in a terminal emulator, so I'd even argue that my hardware requirements haven't really changed during the last decade and probably won't for yet another.

If you don’t have evidence to back this up, stop saying it. Some people are stupid enough to believe it at face value.
From what I've read, this is because the Romans didn't try to integrate the British people into Roman society, in contrast with many other societies they conquered. They kept the populace at an arm's length and lived in enclaves away from the hoi polloi, which meant that most people didn't really benefit that much from the "tech" until the Romans finally left; the monuments, buildings, and fortifications (including, famously, Hadrian's wall and the forum basilica) were used as quarries to extract building materials for what came after.
Even without training, I don't see how the pilots could make this error, I am sure every pilot at Air France is very much aware of how AF447 happened. I am a bit puzzled how they managed to basically replicate it.

Recommendations for a FOSS Android Keyboard?
I have some rather specific requirements, and as of yet have been unable to find anything that meets them.

I have been using SwiftKey for forever, but don't quite like trusting Microsoft with all my keyboard inputs.

My requirements, in order of priority:

1. Qwertz Layout, including the ä, ö, and ü keys

2. Active corrections/predictions for at least two input languages at once.

3. Good, or at least usable, predictive text

4. A permanent Numrow on top

I'd be happy for any and all recommendations, even if they don't quite fit all the requirements.

You can easily implement a HTML reader that extracts the text and images to make the information understandable, agreed it will not look pretty.

The difference is what matters -
The information or the look of the document.

HTML lets you get the information and you can alter the look. PDF locks in the look but is more difficult to get the information.
I think it would be least likely to outlaw political cartoons or parodies as those can be forms of criticism of the government, one of our most sacred rights. We don't have freedom of speech so that we can talk about the weather.

May I suggest Bitsy? https://bitsy.org/

Depending on your son's interests, he might be more oriented towards telling stories, Bitsy allows to write stories and dialogues. The tool has some restrictions on what you can do, so you can focus on the story and the conversations you can make (the dialogue tool is very good!)

The result then can be converted to html and uploaded to itch. Bitsy jams are very popular.
No, because you're teaching someone how to frame their problem so that they can start to work their way out of it. No blaming is taking place.

Highly doubt it. You can't insure the inevitable.
I see these kind of comments pop up and as a long time backend/full-stack dev I don't follow the logic all too well.

HTMX is just another tool to be deployed. If your app requires a SPA experience or large amounts of javascript for the UI, its not the right tool for the job. Where I have had great experience with it is for applications that have discrete javascript implementations or none. Lot's of applications that are quite valuable to the end user, are really just a bunch of CRUD like operations and don't really need a full blown FE framework.

I used Flattr for a while but struggled with:

After I got the horn disconnected so the neighbors would stop hearing it and so the car could be driven…that’s the theory this dad had, too.

The thinking about it reality was horn current is switched through relays, there aren’t obvious places to mount the new in-cabin portion of the horn, there aren’t well considered off the shelf options for the horn triggering system, and the horn is a critical safety system.

And I didn't have a garage; never wrenched as a vocation nor much as a hobby; and my most motörhead friend lived in another state.

Keep in mind the center of the steering wheel is designed to explode in an accident so hard objects attached to it will missile around the cabin if the airbag triggers.

The dash was a lot of curved soft surfaces covering ducts and wires were it wasn’t instruments and controls.

Cars ain’t what they used to be.

It's written consistently in all upper case in the copy text at https://www.delorie.com/djgpp/.

When it's written in all lowercase, like in the title, that's a stylistic preference that you can disapprove of if you want, although it's an incredibly petty thing to care about.

> Yes.

Well, that's your prerogative, but it's against standard English orthography. Acronyms and initialisms that refer to proper nouns are spelled all uppercase in English. FBI, NASA, WHO, GCC, HSV, NY, no "Fbi", "Nasa", "Who", "Gcc", "Hsv", or "Ny". You'd never get the latter versions past any remotely competent copy editor or grade school teacher.

As an example of different orthography, in standard Finnish NASA would indeed be spelled "Nasa", but FBI is still FBI and DJGPP is still DJGPP.
Still use one cheap HP Compaq XP business machine from 2006, Pentium D which is really just two 32-bit Pentiums on one die to equal an early 64-bit AMD64. Runs W11 just fine once you coax it into existence on a BIOS PC. Linux too.

A slightly older XP Dell only has a single-core 32-bit CPU so no W11 for you, but W10 32-bit is still current and there's only 4GB of memory anyway. Debian on 32-bit looks like it may be supported for somewhat longer. Uses parallel PATA and/or serial SATA drives.

Both have floppies, parallel printer ports, serial COM ports, dual DVD readers/burners and telephone modems.

It’s not a preference to be micromanaged.

It’s a preference to not execute two different skill sets when you lack one of them. That’s stressful.

You might be a good developer, but not great at talking to users and figuring out the priority and the solution and executing on that independently.

Or you might not be good at delivering eloquent speeches. Or whatever. Everyone lacks some skillset which they’d prefer someone more qualified handle for them.

This looks... dubious. The starting point postulating that America was populated by people from the lost continent of Atlantis does not inspire confidence in this account's historical accuracy:

> An origin as a race in some specific place is more probable―most likely, in some region now under the Atlantic Ocean. ... A red-race civilization certainly developed around the north central Atlantic region on both sides of the ocean, and the geographical center of this was in what is now the Sargasso sea, in the middle of the Atlantic ocean, but where tradition on both sides of the ocean places the lost continent of Atlantis.
Balcones makes a really good and interesting bourbon out of baby blue corn. Flavor is certainly different than the standard bourbon. Not really a Mexican corn whiskey I don't think, but I thought this was relevant as it involves using a native American (Hopi) corn to make a whiskey.

As always, it's complex. The EUDR is focused on items originating outside the single market. It does not outline specific measures or tooling, outside of mandating things like containers must be accompanied by documentation showing the specific locations of origin (polygons of fields, or GPS points if the fields are small), as well as quantities from those locations and accompanying due diligence reports, that are to (eventually) be submitted to a central repository. If they don't, the products cannot be sold on the market, and companies may be susceptible to fines.

Deforestation is something that is possible to monitor in various ways, including via satellite imagery. But some form of independent risk analysis and ground-truthing will almost certainly be part of any due-diligence process. I'm already seeing companies shy away from some 'legal' fields that are suspiciously close to protected areas that are undergoing / have undergone recent deforestation (which is also a risk, by the way, that farmers are punished for things outside their control). But what I'm saying is that right now companies either a) make their own rules, and own the communication space when they don't achieve them or b) subscribe to voluntary programs (rainforest alliance, fair trade, etc) which also have limited resources and where some conflict of interest can exist. Soon, companies will be legally responsible and this is a large culture shift, basically moving the problem from the CSR/ESG department to the sourcing department, which is where the deals are truly made.

I expect that initial enforcement will be lax as everyone gains experience and adjust to the new situation, and there will (of course) be fraud. This will probably be mostly done in origin (when Nestle says jump a chocolate exporter says 'how high?'). But soon regulatory authorities will have databases of (traceable) products to field level and can correlate... only so much of product X can come from field Y, etc. And, by virtue of companies having to implement traceability to field level, much more can be said about other issues (child labor, wages and premiums, etc). An importer can no longer say "well we can't be totally responsible for everything that happens since we don't have that level of granularity on our products."
>>they allowed Wickard v Filburn to stand

I am not aware of any that has been before the current current that would challenge Wickard or any of the other terrible rulings that followed Wickard. So I am not sure the statement of "they allowed Wickard v Filburn to stand" is accurate.

I dislike the original study, since it repeatedly (including the title) makes claims about Google results, but in reality the researchers did not analyze Google results due to scraping Google being too hard. Instead they analyzed results scraped from a search engine, and assert with no proof that they're representative of Google results.

But this 404 article is even worse. The conclusion of the study wasn't tha the results have gotten worse. It was literally the opposite!

> In fact, the Google results seem to have improved to some extent since the start of our experiment in terms of the amount of affiliate spam.

But just like the researchers got more attention with the misleading title about what was studied, the journalists at 404 got more clicks by outright lying about the results.

Escitalopram Oxalate

This worked for me actually with CBT for some time now as quality of life was certainly better. But it had side effects like feeling emotionally numb and lack of sexual desire. Though I haven’t ever even kissed a girl at 31 I thought that would be relevant in the future for any relationship as I tried dating a bit year ago and I felt emotionally very distant and cold for whatever reason. It’s a common side effect of it I guess from what I hear.

I slowly weaned off of it in 2023 with my therapist suggestion as I was doing okay even without it but I may have to go back to it for some time if things get worse. Not sure I’ll talk to my therapist next month.

MDMA and EMDR have been two therapies for trauma processing. I will keep an eye for it and talk to my therapist to see if he can refer me to a clinic who can help me in a controlled environment. Safety is very important from what I know when you do either.

I have this irrational belief that if I could somehow understand and categorize all possible dangers then I might have a hope of keeping my daughter safe.
