It sounds like you are asking how basic lawmaking works. You must surely know that lines are changed all the time. I don't know what more you expect from me which you don't already know or can get from an intro civics course.

> Should we keep decreasing the speed limit until people follow the rules?

That seems like a totally different topic. You commented that "Replacing one honored rule with another rule seemed illogical." I pointed out why that high-level characterization can be logical.

The devil is in the details, and the balance of factors concerning RTOR may be far different than the laws on speed limits.

Besides, the article points out the laws changed from the honored rule of no RTOR to a new rule. Using your characterization, that change was also illogical, right? Even though the article points out how it was to save fuel during the gas crisis.

Now that cars are much more efficient, it is certainly logical to ask if those those savings are still worthwhile.

> I would never want to live in a world where rules are created by a higher authority with the specific goal of removing my ability to make decisions because it has been decided that its better for me that way.

How is that relevant? I said was that it's one of several factors to consider when changing a rule, in order to decide if the rule change was logical.

I did not say it was or should be "the specific goal."

I assume you do not generally [1] run a red light whenever you see the cross-traffic is clear, even though that law was created by a higher authority with the specific goal of removing your ability to make a decision that would be allowed with a blinking red light.

I assume you also don't often drive when it's likely your blood-alcohol level is beyond the legal limit, even though that law has also removed your ability to make the decision if you are sober enough to drive safely, justified on the belief that it's better for you that way.

How do you manage to live in a world where one-way streets have severely restricted your ability to go in one direction?

I could go on, but I think you understand that I simply don't see how your comment has any bearing on the topic, except to understand that you are strongly against a whole lot of traffic laws that most people think are reasonable.

[1] Yes, there are exceptional cases when it's legal to run a red light, like if you are on a motorcycle, the traffic detector appears to be broken and you've been sitting there for minutes while no other traffic is present. https://www.startribune.com/the-drive-what-to-do-if-traffic-... . I believe it's still illegal if you are in a car, but it's an affirmative defense the judge will likely accept - same as if your passenger had a heart attack and you are heading straight to the ER.
These days they are probably transitioning to AI scams or "keto supplements" as the new best thing.
> Nowhere I called them "hunter-gatherers". That's something YOU wrote. You took words "hunter" and "gathered" and created in your mind "hunter-gatherer" which is completely different because it has a specific meaning.

You mean "The blue screen of death" ?
>>But the world does not owe them a particular wage for what they want to do just because it's a job that they want

>Sure we do, we call it minimum wage. Of course the ceiling is unlimited but there are defined floors.

A minimum wage doesn't guarantee "a particular wage". It only guarantees that if an exchange of money for labor occurs, that the price paid will meet the minimum. However, it doesn't guarantee that the transaction will occur, and if you're unemployed your "wage" is arguably $0.
For all of the reasons you note above, this is why I've almost exclusively dealt with arena-style allocations of fixed-object-sizes when doing ultra low latency work.
"So the charges are that Kaitlyn and I pocketed $1.3 million, and I just want to come out and say that those uh charges are true," said Regalado in the video, presumably causing a cold chill to run down the spine of his defense attorney in the middle of whatever he was doing.

You know when you have a task that it feels impossible to complete in your current role because of external factors? Management troubles, massive tech debt, etc. I wonder if that's how his lawyer feels about winning this case.
It's like when somebody writes "It is well known that..." in a paper - the astute reviewer would then ask "Is it? Cite three papers then."

Moving a few files, no. But a professional move, say something that is going to take more than 30 minutes due to speed/size issues, yes i would use a two-pane tool. Another case would be if the destination had a dynamic ammount of free space, such as to a running server. I would use two panes so i could abort before filling the destination.

It's always easy to be doom and gloom, and the press loves to push that fear and dread end-of-the-world line too for their sales. But having been through several rounds of crashes and recessions and lived other places around the UK and spent significant time in various other countries, I think that London is doing fine. Not utopia, but good.

That's what my company does.
I agree that my examples are about parody and commentary, and I apologize that my intent wasn't clear. I was trying to convey that a derivative work made by studying the original (Mondrian / Biden / Trump speech) should be OK. Like Admiral Cloudberg or Mentour Pilot can take an air-crash investigation and make it more compelling than a Mayday documentary, or, indeed, the FAA report itself. They use the same base material, but sculpt it into something perhaps more compelling. The fact that an AI does this instead of a human seems irrelevant.

I was taught as a kid that using something that doesn't belong to me, without their permission is theft... and it appears courts would agree with that.

> which specific type of law or right is being broken or violated by generative AI?

Namely, copyright. Here's some quick points:

- Generative AI cannot exist without copyrighted works. It cannot be "taught" any other way, unlike a human.

- Any copyrighted works fed to it change its database ("weights" in technical speech).

- It then transforms these copyrighted works into new works that the "original author would have never considered without attribution" (not a legal defense)

I liken Generative AI to a mosaic of copyrighted works in which a new image is shown through the composition, as the originals can be extracted through close observation (prompting) but are otherwise indistinguishable from the whole.

Mosaics of copyrighted works are not fair use, so why would AI be any different? I'd be interested if you could point to a closer physical approximation, but I haven't found one yet.
You’re correct. Moreover a magnetic field is not needed for a planet to have an atmosphere. For example Venus has no magnetic field, and it has a very thick atmosphere, even though it gets 4 times the solar flux as Mars.
To be honest, it absolutely should aim to be at least a strictly compatible subset of POSIX, even if it doesn't implement everything. There is really no good reason to XKCD 927 this on purpose, but the mentality regarding this is not written anywhere that I saw. I think the mentality regarding compatibility ought to be documented in more detail. What is considered a "bug"?

That can't happen by definition unless you get rid of inequality altogether, or engage in shenanigans like defining them as "contractors".

The nice thing about being calm is, it prevents you from doing worse things from the worst.

Yes, the worst could be worse if you got panic.
I don't know the answer to your question, but for context here are the weights of Mars rovers:

Sojourner (1997): 11 kg

Spirit & Opportunity (2004): 185 kg

Curiosity (2011): 899 kg

Perseverance (2020): 1,025 kg
Or is it suggesting that bad bathroom query code went to production even though the bathroom query story is still clearly on the backlog (otherwise it would have the usual boundary checks)?
I think this is an overreaction. It was likely as simple as hanging up and calling again, if it bothered you so much. Or did you consider providing some polite feedback that the background noise was distracting you, I have had people buy headphones advertised as noise canceling and assume they work well but only realize they didn't until pointed out to them. Or did you even consider that she might work from an office and just had an off day - had a malfunctioning headset for the day or had a sick kid at home and so opted to work remotely for the day.

Also, is this even about working from home? I have worked in multiple offices which had open layouts and other meetings/conversations going on in desks around me and very distracting too.

Personally, imho, I work remotely and have a quiet room to myself but I also understand that other people I work with have lives too, and if it really bothers me I just tell them that politely, if you are courteous then its likely most people are going to be to you too, and do what they can to help. It makes me wonder if you have already made up your mind about the person you spoke to and about work from home and are finding reasons to justify it.

Titan is such a wonderful place for a nuclear powered helicopter. Much better than rover/submarines/floaters, IMHO. A balloon would also have been excellent, but the extra mobility from helis is going to be amazing.
Not sure if you are going to read that, but Markor now allows to reorder and toggle action buttons for the editor. Look inside the markdown settings.

Every time you open an incognito window in Chrome there's an explanation of what can and can't track you. It's been there for years.
Your examples seem very individual sized. For a family it makes a lot more sense to occasionally DoorDash if you simply don’t have the time or energy to cook or even take the family out. It’s expensive.

> a sailor who couldn’t swim had better chance of surviving

I don't know about the statistics, but I'm descended from a small Scottish fishing village and remember being told that sailors didn't lean to swim. The logic was if you went overboard you were dead, the non swimmer would suffer less as they'd drown sooner.

I'm not sure how much truth is in that, and I doubt it applies these days as it was probably from the days of sail when a ship couldn't just stop & turn around.
Its okay to boycott services where tipping is expected instead of giving a fair pay to the employees.

Upfront tipping is especially a red flag for me.
But why? Why use esoteric languages no one knows?? Why teach someone a language they can’t use at work? Just teach Go it’s so simple and teaches you actually good practices unlike Python. Senior devs hate it and junior devs love it for the same reason.
At the time the Manzares installation was built the concept seemed very promising. I read about it as a child in an overview of different approaches to solar power generation and to me, the chimney stood out as far more practical than the various mirror setups that were tried at the time (and that remained iconic "future energy" through 90ies and early aughts, e.g. in computer games). But photovoltaics have gotten so much cheaper, all that is left for mirrors, chimneys and the like is nostalgia. Like past futures with flying cars and landline phones.

The chimney idea did have a bit of a revival through the discovery of thermal mass as a way to flatten the day/night cycle, but that's far too short term and undispatchable to really make much of a difference. The gap behind photovoltaic is just too big I think and of we ever have hydrolysers on the scale we need for everything else, adding some more capacity will again win from scale.

These days, even the bad idea of integrating some battery capacity directly on module level would seem more promising to me. So many very good reasons not to do it, biggest one is very different expected service life, but if you do stuff at numbers like photovoltaic modules, scale effects are difficult to predict.

What I want, as a solar future tech fantasy, is installation/service robotics. Central premise: the modules need permanent scaffolding anyways. Focus on that for where innovation happens and make a pair of scaffolding system and machine that are designed for each other so that the scaffolding can serve the machine as as a controlled environment for travel (and power!), and the machine (or family of different machines) can do diagnostics, clean or even replace modules. Bonus points of course if the machine(s) can also lay out more scaffolding, but I'd consider that beyond mvp.
This was the conclusion I reached after reading how it all developed back in the day. There was no independent monitoring/verification during the time this woman was supposedly in the cave, and it was confirmed afterwards by her own team that she went outside for for eight days "so technicians could repair a router". She also had a computer "without a clock", and was in great shape, did not even need sunglasses after all those days in a cave.

Here is a source in Spanish with some photos of her just after getting out of the cave:

True story - I worked at a company where I got an angry email from the CEO telling me that 'agile was about giving the program a quick look over, our customers are better at finding bugs than we are'

( which was true only because but they didn't want to put any effort into finding bugs before release.)
I bought it 10 years ago, it cost me less than 50€. And every interactive device has an operating system, no matter how simple it is. Just to accept inputs from my remote and displaying menus to configure lightning/colors/volumes/etc., it needs an OS.
The context of my response was the parent comment, which mentioned academic writing in comparison.

I haven't read any of this author's books nor have I read the books he is supposed to have lifted these phrases from. So I don't really have an opinion on this particular case.

I guess it would depend on whether he has reused more than some isolated sequences of words from a particular novel. What makes a novel unique for me is mostly the story and the characters.
I know these are much larger - I’m just really curious about the dynamics of scaling up rotorcraft & why it is problematic. ie - do rotor physics become impracticality large or fast at some point for materials science, or is it purely a space problem for rocket launches.
I think the modern alternative is Nearby Share which works via BLE or WiFi with Android / Windows / ChromeOS
no, i just discovered it from Linux Magazine a few years ago.
for sure... I didn't down-vote him unlike some other people... I can't down-vote on this account anyways (I actually up-voted him because I saw his comment had been shadow banned, which is another terrible practice... humans are messed up, I hope AI takes over, for the better or the worst)
A heli that can move a rover is basically worse than a heli that has rover instruments and a few wheels. You have extra weight and parts and complexity for hitching and carrying that you can just avoid by giving a small rover flying ability.

Even the combo is probably too much complexity. A heli with good imagers, spectrometers, and the ability to cart soil samples would be fantastic.
>>>> Business leaders rightly worry that this divide could hurt morale among front-line staff, undermine perceived fairness, and create new rifts in the workforce.

Working at a multinational, people have had varied work arrangements, perquisites, social hierarchies, and pay scales, for a long time. WFH is just a new wrinkle, where you're one of the "remotes" but you live in the same town for some reason. Also, if you think about it, the network of suppliers, contractors, and customers represent quasi-remotes in the sense that they're also involved in the business but are not locating themselves on site, and are jockeying for advantages just like everybody else.

The remotes are mostly invisible. The winds of self-interest that fill our sails continue to blow even if no other ship is in sight.
Not being snarky, but if you believe that, then you clearly are not an artist.

It is important to validate any aging method, including otoliths, and there have been cases of system misaging. The fin ray and scale based ages used in West Coast ground fishery management in the 80s resulted in systemic under aging that contributed to the over fishing and collapse of multiple rockfish species, for example. But otoliths in temperate fish species are generally one of the most consistent and reliable aging methods across multiple taxa.

So hopefully otolith aging has been validated for this species in particular or at least a closely related one, but if not it's more likely than not reasonably reliable.

As for the population dynamics, it's not actually necessarily that strange. For many species, mortality occurs almost entirely in the early life history. Once fish escape that period, they are very unlikely to die. This can take in exactly this kind of dynamic were very few young fish are alive at any one point and most of the extent fish are very old.
Absolutely that’s what’s happening and is happening in person at restaurants too. Tips in the US do not signify that you enjoyed the service or food, you’re simply shoring up their pathetic tipped rate minimum wage. That’s frustrating enough, but then DoorDash keeps “tipping” optional but bakes all their bullshit fees right into the price. They ballon the price to a point where a single person is suddenly paying $30 for a chipotle burrito and they get to the tip screen and balk at adding more to that total.
Oh interesting! I can see how that would be a harder problem (although not insurmountable since some planes on earth have supersonic propellers).

Just a quick edit - wow, u didn’t realize the span was already 4ft! Anything much larger could definitely be hard to pack inside a fairing!

One of the top stories today on LinkedIn is that CEOs are increasingly waiving the white flag and admitting surrender in the RTO battle. There's work that needs to get done and companies fighting wars against themselves and their employees is a needless distraction. Now it's a race to see who can put an end the self inflicted wounds the fastest and get a leg up on those still fighting themselves.

It's not fun to manually reformat those tables for readability. If I add something to the `second row, second column`, I have to add extra spaces to the `first row, second column`, or it will look janky.

| first row, first column | first row, second column | first row, third column |
| ------------------------ | ------------------------- | ------------------------ |
| second row, first column | exceptionally long second row, that makes second column look worse | second row, third column |
Neat idea, definitely going to use this! Thanks for sharing

Ok - this makes sense to me. Also taken into account the context that anything going to space needs to be light at this point in time. Hopefully we don’t have that restriction forever :)
I think the only reasonable thing to do in the face of this ambiguity is to assume the worst. Google have lawyers smart enough to write clear explanations of functionality if that would be to their benefit.
That's your definition of a "fair wage". The parent's point is that it's subjective and others might disagree. For instance I've seen people take the marxist position that software engineers earning 6 figures isn't "fair" because the company is making even more money from their labor and that amount is effectively being stolen from them.
I can’t think of too many other meals with that palette.
> With that in mind, what do you think Google and others should do differently?

I think the parent is suggesting that they reassociate the incognito tracking cookies with the users' other data from their logged in session by using other fingerprinting techniques.

I don't know whether Google actually does this. Clearly they are capable of doing so, and anybody who cares about privacy should assume it happens, but it's not obvious to me that this kind of data association would be worth it for advertisers.
I kinda like it! The rivets are interesting, and the window proportions too. Plus the photo has nice light, which doesn’t hurt.
