As a former library developer, I've written all sorts of little bits like that for all sorts of archives and databases and publicly supported open access. If that's really all they've got, it's pretty light. I imagine they've at least got some sort of access logs, surreptitiously viewed conversations about it, or something similar.
I found the real-world parts a bore, and his re-creation of existence quite diverting. When I recommend the book, it's always with admonition to "skip the tedium, it goes on forever".

Well, I did like "real world" parts that describe the practical basis for how the fantasy realm was manifest, but the life and times the present day characters was of no use to me. I didn't care a whit about the conspiracy theories, the post-US factions, any of that stuff.

It's sad, because I think a lot of the conservative rage thats being misdirected into the culture war actually ultimately comes from a pretty fair place, which is the economic gutting out that they've been facing, and the complete and utter lack of care or efficacy of the Democratic party in trying to help working people (and the Dem's classist disdain for them), and I'd like to team up with them to help with that, but it's not really possible when they would want me dead instead. If they could simply put aside their bigotry and work with people it would be a lot easier.
What about your toes?
The same way I'd explain all the other stuff. It's just lots of filler to try to make the site look, from the scammer's perspective, legit. And you have to keep in mind this issue of perspectives. What you see as propaganda, is what somebody else would just see as the equivalent as a stream from e.g. Reuters. And the scammer is probably Chinese or Korean. Since the target victims are Korean, he probably wouldn't want to use e.g. Korean news sources that might be more readily recognizable.

If you want to see this as some sort of a state influence operation, you run into a million issues. The sites are poorly done (template boilerplate is even left up in many places!) and no native would likely consider them "real", there has been exactly 0 effort to advertise or share the sites, the sites seem to be regularly taken down which ruins ranking/viral possibilities, what "propaganda" that does exist on the sites has to be actively searched for, the sites seemingly allow anybody to publish on them, the sites are loaded with stuff that's going to push people away like shady crypto spam (and I say that as a huge fan of crypto!), so forth and so on.

Especially for things like this, I think Occam's Razor is quite sharp.
Leaders serve the interests of those that have a say in whether or not they stay in power—in democratic countries with wide enfranchisement, that’s the population in general, in other systems it might be a combination of the military, party, international supporters, and the populace.

I think what people mean when they say a country “acts rationally” or doesn’t is that decisions are made that vaguely make sense in when analyzed by applying the rationalism framework to ”the country,” usually used as a shorthand for the populace. But of course, this would only make sense if the leaders decide that the best way to stay in power is to serve the interest of the populace. Which isn’t the case in a non-democratic country.

Rationalism is a framework in international relations, and it makes sense that some terms-of-art will sneak out into informal English. Unfortunately, in English, “irrational” is also, basically, a fancy way of saying somebody makes stupid decisions. And lots of countries that are, broadly, antagonistic toward the US are not representative democracies*. So it seems to have basically morphed into a way of saying that my country’s adversaries are stupid. An unfortunate end for an otherwise interesting term.

* not to say that we haven’t been willing to morally compromise ourselves and ally up with dictators or overthrow democracies.
Learning parameter ordering is precisely a thing that I advice against memorizing. Just use IDE.

Other things - well, there is Google, there is StackOverflow, and now - also ChatGPT with GPT-4.

Sure, it might not be enough for learning (at least, not for everyone), but well enough to avoid needless memorization. Memorization always comes at some opportunity cost of using time (and, well, brain capacity) for something more fruitful, e.g., learning good programming patterns, wise abstractions, etc.
Ugh I have to finish my article about these "system prompts"... basically if one does any amount of second order thinking, one realizes that it's impossible to prove that these are real are not, much like the simulation theory...

Do people realize that reproducibility is in no way a signal of factuality? Especially if it's coming from these LLMs.

And have we had ONE, just ONE person from OpenAI / Mistral / Microsoft ever "leak" one of these so called "system prompts"? No. It's mass delusion at it's finest, but I suppose it is entertaining to watch the discussions that resurface approximately every few months.

I tend to agree.

For my part, ever since I was a wee lad learning to program for the first time, I've been of the opinion that line counts themselves are a largely worthless metric for anything.

How many lines code takes up is too variable between languages, too variable within the same language, too dependent on irrelevancies like formatting, etc.

What actually matters is logical and conceptual complexity, not line counts.

She has 2.8 million followers. There were 2.4 million Nazi volunteers. The scale of what is possible has changed. It's not an inn with 28 farmers. It's not a statehouse with 280 citizens. It's not a gathering around a microphone of 2800 people. It's not a stadium of 28,000. It's not a gigantic congregation of 280,000. It's 2.8 million that listen to her every time she posts. Night or day. Around the clock. She's Always In Their Heads. Both axis of this graph have changed. Any law based around some mid 1900's pre-internet context of how people gathered and how the police might keep an eye on it, are bunk. Pure and utter bunk. In 2.8 million people there will be someone who will act. And as the article states, many times they get away with it. She's inciting hate crimes. That we won't do anything about it is insane.

A cottage industry does seem to be within the realms of possibility, and 3D printing is an apt comparison. However, it’s likely to be prone to the same challenges - input materials (filament and wafers) will be subject to variable quality and environmental factors (moisture, heat, dust), and the machines themselves will take some time to mature (how many iterations of incompatible 3D printer ‘standards’ have cropped up in the two decades since DIY printing emerged in the scene?).

The nirvana of a household printing capability never really materialised.

This is pretty cool. It seems like there are a lot of hard database problems that still need to be solved, but finding the right database system (or extension) seems about as difficult as finding a research article and implementing the solution yourself lately. This seems like a step in the right direction by integrating with Postgres, which is widely used and supported.

Case in point regarding OLAP in particular, I am currently trying to solve a problem where I have a high number of categorical dimensions, and I want to perform a “count distinct” over any combination of dimensions, grouped by any other combination of dimensions, filtered by specific values in each dimension. E.g., count(distinct a.col1, b.col2), count(distinct a.col1), count(distinct b.col3) from table a join table b using (id) group by a.col4, b.col7.

Sounds obscure when I word it that way, but this is actually a pretty “generic” problem that appears whenever you want to filter and count the number of distinct property combinations that occur within a fact dataset of transactions or events that has been joined with other dimensional datasets. A naive implementation is exorbitantly expensive (and impractical) if you have to join many large tables before grouping and performing count distinct.

However, this specific problem manifests in various equivalent forms mathematically: model counting of boolean expressions, low rank factorization of sparse high dimensional boolean tensors (each row in your transaction dataset corresponds to a value of “true” in a sparse tensor with dimensions indexed by the values of your columns), minimal hypergraph covering set, etc.

Is there a database already out there that’s optimized for this fairly common business problem? Maybe...? I searched for a while but couldn’t easily separate the startup database hype from the actual capabilities of a particular offering. Plus, even if the ideal “hypergraph counting database” exists, it’s not like my company is just going to replace its standard cloud SQL platform that serves as the backbone of our entire product with a niche and fragile experimental database with questionable long-term support. It’s much easier to just translate one of the latest tensor factoring research papers into a Python script, plop that into the data processing pipeline, and output the simple factored form of the transactions dataset into a new table that can be easily queried in the standard way.
FWIW, the highest property taxes in the country right now are <2.5%

So your idea is fine, but the numbers are way off.

My proposal would be more like:

Primary residence: 1%
Rental property with 1y+ lease: 1.5%
First secondary residence, owner-occupied seasonally: 2%
Third residence, vacant, or full-time short-term rental: 5%
My bar is if its more than 20 files, or breaks the version control UI, which I've seen in bitbucket some years ago, then your PR is a little too much, and if its a major automated refactor of some sort, it should not contain any other code changes outside of what's necessary to make that specific change work as intended. Other changes should be their own discrete PRs as follow ups.

I just try to be reasonable about PRs. Everyone will have their preference, I just think as long as you can go back and figure out what happened, why the change was made, and do it quickly enough, then you're golden.
Those houses are also not in places where people want to be. We don't have a nation-wide housing crisis, rather we have a top 20 city housing crisis.
Count me among those who don't see the problem. I believe that there are people who are upset by it, but that alone does not justify prohibiting it.
My local DNS is Adguard running in Docker. It is exposed on :53 and handed out with the DHCP.

If my Docker setup goes down (and it did the other day with Docker's network bug on v25) I have no DNS available.

And having a firewall rule capturing ALL DNS traffic and redirecting it to this endpoint doesn't make it easy to quickly recover from.

So I like this idea.

Starting multiple fire outbreaks (aiming to overpower the firefighters) is the standard procedure of every "professional" arsonist.

Arsonists also do fire "tours". They drive, lights off, a secondary road without traffic and stop each few minutes to start outbreaks. This would easily mimick a chain of fire sparks starting from power lines in the road, but we know better because night-vision drones of the Spanish police videotaped some people red-handed doing exactly this. And this idiots had a surprise waiting at the end of the road.

The problem is that most [1] of this people just are sent and paid for doing the job. When caught they fake mental issues and claim to act alone, but then you see that every single one of they follow exactly the same procedures, and know all the tricks to maximize the effect.

[1] Arsonists searching revenge is the other category. They are strongly focused on smaller areas owned by the target
I have seen immediate-mode SVG for GUIs.

Is parsing and rendering SVG well-pipelined at this point? Offhand it might be cache-friendly. I have not tried a simple elapsed-time-in-loop test, but to me geometric screen-painting happens instantly enough.

I can imagine a separate branch in computer evolution, if PCs had not happened, where graphical terminals would have evolved to render something SVG-like, support a mouse, and send back simple mousedown/mouseup/x/y data.
No; the distinction is precisely if you want an RPM distro (which OpenSUSE is) or a RHEL-like distro (which it isn't).
Congrats on launching – we just spent quite a bit of time replicating/transforming our primary database into clickhouse for OLAP use cases, and it would have been way easier if there were a postgres-native solution. Hoping the managed hosting providers catch on

Actually if they could be categorized somehow, we could selectively filter and that would solve a ridiculous number of problems.

My uninformed take as a Kiwi is that most cars here are second hand imports from Japan, so we need imported EVs from Japan to pick up.

Yeah, Tesla understood that charging infrastructure and selling EVs is a chicken-and-egg problem. Very few people will buy an EV without a large charging infrastructure. Nobody would build a charging infrastructure if there weren't enough EVs sold to use them. So Tesla did both: Sold EVs and built a huge charging infrastructure.

The Tesla Supercharger network is an under-advertised feature.

The third party networks are just so half-assed. Slow (The 19.2 kW J-1772 plug should have never existed, and it took too long for CCS to catch on), expensive, and half the time not even working.
Sewer, trash are negligible compared to the cost of rent. If they double you’re looking at rent going up by around 3% and that’s if the landlord isn’t making the renter pay those fees directly.

Maintenance costs and taxes are the only ones that could be a factor out of your original 5 - your point is drowned out by the poor supporting facts.

And taxes aren’t even going up, just the valuation of the properties - which drives higher rent anyways.

And since you’re a landlord, you should have a maintenance plan that would reimburse you for things like HVAC.
In my city in California, developers are replacing old single-family homes with multi-family (apartments, condos, townhomes). It's great, it's needed.
