If you're the kind of person who cares about what someone else thinks, you are by definition conditioned to be in that state. Some people are more deeply conditioned than others, and to their psyches, the stakes are much higher than average (i.e. the trauma example). The broader point is that framing this as a "choice" doesn't make sense.

I agree that a person can make a choice to counteract their conditioning (if they even realize it's something they need to counteract). But this is quite a different thing than having a choice over the kinds of automatic modes of thought that need to be addressed.

A person who is anxious about what other people think chooses to be so the same way a depressed person chooses to be depressed. By which I mean to say that it's not the kind of choice that it's made out to be.

That’s still a different thing: it’s a recurring event, which is an almost entirely separate can of worms from a datetime.

And a recurrence library probably wants to avoid libc-style “localtime” here — plumbing the concept of users in places to it seems awkward. A genuinely naive time may be better — the interface could be “calculate the next recurrence of this recurring event in this timezone,” not “here’s a recurring event with associated ‘local’ time — calculate the next occurrence given my /etc/localtime and TZ environment variable”.
Except they can’t since it’s censored. Are you adding anything to this conversation? Seems like you’re just complaining and being negative.
I do point out that if your internal representation would be simple naive epoch+duration(/timedelta) then you don't need any special accounting for leap seconds when doing time arithmetic like this. The problem arises only if you are trying to be somehow clever with your internal representation (and failing).

This is very cool and will change the way we do lora now.
My grandparents are dead. So are my parents.

My dad was born before the UK joined WW2, he lived through the arrival of colour TV. One of the earliest stories people had about mum was during an air raid where her family had to shelter under the kitchen table. Dad was about to turn 6 when Nagasaki was bombed. He was 8 when the transistor was finally prototyped. At university, he studied electrical engineering, he only learned about this new thing called "software" on a two day training course at work. When he settled down and started a family, phone numbers were 4 digits, "long distance" meant the next town, international was unheard of. One of my mum's resentments was that my dad had grown up thinking that eating out was too expensive, such that he never took her anywhere — thanks to WW2 both grew up with rationing, which also means their experience of what foods are available in (super)markets radically changed over the years (one of mum's anecdotes was the first time she bought a chilli pepper, from a street market, she just bit into it like it was a banana or apple because she didn't know any better).

My parents saw the fall of the British Empire, the Beeching cuts, the moon landings, the invention of nuclear power and solar power. The house went from no loft insulation to loads, from a void cavity on the walls to filled cavity, it gained PV on the roof.

They lived through the sexual revolution, the introduction and widespread availability of oral contraceptives.

My uncle moved to Australia (from the UK), and I'm told that was because he really didn't like his mum and that was as far as he could go. My first international trip was, in part, to meet him, with my gran paying for herself, my parents, and me to all go together because international travel got that much cheaper (my brother and sister went later, they were at university at the time).

They saw AIDS enter the news, were around for PrEP to enter human trials. The first heart transplant, liver transplant, lung transplant. They saw smallpox eradicated. They saw witchcraft and homosexuality legalised. They saw the USSR collapse, having previously visited a divided Berlin (where I now live). They saw the formation of the EU.

My dad took a lot of books out of the library. Me? Audio books and podcasts, which I listen to sped-up, so that I can multi-task, either on a commute or during a long walk. Dad was 40 when the Walkman was introduced.

I see robots helping clean up the food courts in a mall close to what was, in their lifetime, a heavily fortified no-mans land. The first vacuum cleaner I bought was a Roomba.

Now that Zed is open source they're actually quite similar in capability (even sharing a number of underling libraries). The biggest difference is probably that Zed is backed by a commercial company (and I believe they have plans to sell collaborative functionality on top of the core editor) whereas Lapce is more of a community open source project.

Lapce is also cross-platform whereas Zed is currently macOS only. But they seem to be making rapid progress on linux support so this may not be relevant soon.

> Major private media corporations in poland were already closely aligned with PiS [...]

This statement is an outright lie. For example, Gazeta Wyborcza, all of Agora Media, and TVN have always been anti-PiS.

>[...] and independent media was shut down.

Can you elaborate on this?

> As a result, for several years all media in poland was pro-government.

Completely untrue.
At least where i live (California) they classify drivers as independent contractors not employees. There was a whole prop about it which got passed and basically groundfathered them in as “businesses owners” forever. It is in fact pretty uncommon to tip contractors. Like would you tip your plumber? I’m gonna guess no
Yes, you can look up countless stories of small sellers online that have had their payment processing stopped by Stripe or Paypal. In some cases, these are decade old accounts and they keep their funds for weeks after the user is banned. I've even had a friend get banned from Paypal when logged in from another country they didn't operate in. I'm not talking about sending funds, just checking his account. When he asked why, they said their system alerted something and their decision is final.

The government truly made them judge, jury, and executioner. They can stop you from collecting payments at any time, hold your funds, and don't have to provide reasons. Forget appealing their decision since it's final most times.

In the end, the government let this industry "self-regulate" itself and crypto gives users a different option.
Very simplistic view. US has also given billions in subsidies to US ev makers and protectionism. One reason Tesla is so big on US is China is not allowed to enter.

One of the reasons people use gold is because carrying it around is actually pretty easy. Eg, wandering the streets with a few million in gold bars is no challenge. You can carry it in a bag and the odds of someone checking your bag for millions of dollars in hard assets is low.

Not to mention that if the gold is banked then it probably didn't need transport because it was being transported too and from a bank.
Early in my programming career, I designed and built a piece of software that made one very specific job easy. It made the job so easy, that instead of a department of thirty people doing that job, the company only needed three, trained to use my software. I put people out of work.

It had never entered into my thinking that the code I was writing, the screens I was designing, and the system I deployed would do that. Ever since that project, I think about that. You have to think not just about what the software will do for the people you intend to use it, but what it will do to them as well.

With our headlong rush to deploy more generative capacity, there's zero consideration for this. The reasons we're ignoring this are understandable, if sad. There's too much money to be made being the first or best on the block to deploy this capability. There's too much potential control if you're the winner of this race to stop. The downsides will be felt by others, not the ones deploying the software... until they put some of their friends out of work, and even then, they won't look up and notice until it's too late.
I dunno. Everything, Everywhere, All At Once was widely praised, and I saw it twice in theaters; and while I can remember a few key moments, I couldn't tell you the full plot from beginning to end. I still feel like I took something away from the experience of watching it (particularly the second time, with my mother). I'm beginning to think that there is an overemphasis on the breaking-down, atomizing, and overanalysis of fictional works. There's a place for that, of course, and such endeavors can bring you great insight. But maybe a work is an experience unto itself. You can take away something useful and meaningful from just being there and engaging with it as a viewer and reader as it streams through your sensory experience, and sitting with the emotions it brings afterwards. If that aspect of it didn't matter - wasn't of principal importance, even - wouldn't you be better off just saving time by reading Cliff's Notes/watching CinemaSins/a Youtube Essay, where the Important Parts are chopped up and fed to you in a most palatable manner?

for ubereats , you have a chance to tip upfront which is basically a bribery since the company in California can't give their drivers a liveable wage. But at the same time,some drivers don't want to work shift. The only way forward I think is giving shifts whether 6 or 8 hours. But then drivers can't refuse riders, they will get vacation pay, etc

You don't need to be hungry all the time. You can lose weight without hunger, and without feeling tired and cold either. You don't even need an exercise regimen.

Elevated insulin levels make you store energy in the form of body fat. In order to lose body fat you need the opposite: you need your fat tissue to release its store energy back into your bloodstream. For that to happen you need your insulin to go down low enough, and for long enough.

So what makes your insulin level to be too high? There are four key factors, three of which are under your control.

First, the fatter you are, the higher your insulin level will be. That's why it is so hard for fat people to lose weight in the first place. Nothing we can do about that, but the next three factors you can improve.

Second, the amount of carbohydrates in your diet. Starchy or sugary foods, such as bread, pasta, rice, potatoes and sugar, are very rich in carbohydrates. Carbohydrates raise your insulin levels, so you want to reduce them as much as possible. In order to prevent hunger you still need to eat, so choose foods that will not raise your insulin as much. This means eating above-ground vegetables, eggs, meat, fish and full-fat dairy like butter, heavy cream, and cheese. Choose fatty cuts of meat, instead of lean cuts.

Third, eat less frequently. Insulin levels go down a few hours after each meal. The fatter you are, the longer they take to come down. Every night as you fast during your sleep, your insulin goes down. By having early dinners and/or skipping breakfast, you extend the number of hours a day in which you are in a low-insulin state. When you consume a meal do eat until you are satisfied. Skipping meals isn't about reducing your calories, it's about reducing your insulin. When you eat a low-carbohydrate diet it becomes much easier to skip breakfast because you aren't nearly as hungry.

Fourth, if you can, introduce some exercise into your daily routine. You don't need to go crazy: you can replace some or all of your commute with walking or cycling and it will help. It is not about how many calories you burn exercising in a particular day. Instead, it's about how over a long period of time exercise makes your muscles more insulin sensitive. This means they become more efficient at eliminating excess glucose from your bloodstream, which in turn makes your body release less insulin, and thus reduce the amount of time you will have excess insulin.

I didn't know much about BYD till the end of the last year. Looked around for more information and found this great video[0]. It's a fascinating story actually.

So in west clean energy push is actually a moral obligation for reducing the effects of climate change. Whereas for China it is the main way for future growth, to become less dependent on oil supply chain which it does not control. Also they know that they can't compete in ICE vehicles with the established companies. So they started working on EV long before Elon Musk popularized EV in West.

The subsidized whole EV industry. As a result hundreds of EV companies were created seeing the opportunities. As a result nationwide EV infrastructure was built. Five years ago China did the most unconventional thing. They invited Tesla to build the factories and at a same time removed most subsidies given to local EV companies. So Tesla and local companies were having same equal footing.

It resulted in a pure form of free market competition. It became a bloodbath, a king of the hill type survival game where Tesla sat at top of the hill. As a result of competition innovation, optimization happened. Most of the local EV companies died. Remaining became almost the same level as Tesla and BYD became the new king of the hill (at least in China).

The unconventional decision by China may look foreign to western audience but it actually resonates to us who are raised by Asian families. So if you are a child in an asian households parents most of the time talks about a 'kid next door' who is good at study. The parents frequently tells their child to become as good or better than the 'kid next door',saying that we will give you as good environment within our reach to achieve it. It gives an implicit pressure on the child to become better. Obviously not all become as good as the kid next door but some prevails.

In the Chinese EV market case Tesla was that 'kid next door'.

Copyright attribution is necessary to avoid tombstoning the project. Imagine you have something using AGPL, and some high profile court cases change the landscape of copyright, resulting in the arrival of new, next generation licenses. For example, let's assume AGPL is defeated in court.

It is effectively impossible to adopt a different license without either:

- getting consent from all authors/copyright holders.

- removing all the contributions of any outstanding authors/copyright holders who don't/can't provide consent.

Your options are pretty bad here.

Furthermore, not having a CLA even for very permissibly licensed projects can be a poison pill for any sort of M&A, even if the project would never need to make use of it. Not using a CLA muddies the IP portfolio of the company, and many investors will spook easily at the scent of IP issues regardless of whether or not they really matter.

Unless you feel like fucking around and finding out (I don't) you get copyright assignment.

Anyways, you can always fork.
