It's very dense though and there's like a billion names to keep track of, I only made it through the first ~1/3 of the first volume (out of 4) before I had to give up. I want to revisit one day but I would need some sort of reading guide to follow along with that lets me look up all the character names and who is on which side etc.
"Unlike well-moderated torrent sites, Bitmagnet adds almost any torrent it finds to its database. This includes mislabeled files, malware-ridden releases, and potentially illegal content. The software tries to limit abuse by filtering metadata for CSAM content, however."

This is by far the biggest hurdle to something like this. You'll eventually have to end up again with a centralized curator.
The author seems to contradict themselves in many places… maybe they just really want it to be true. For example, “allegedly” and “convicted” in this case:

> He was convicted during Tusk’s previous regime (2007-2014) for allegedly abusing his power while pursuing government corruption with “excessive zeal,” but was officially pardoned by then-new President Andrzej Duda in 2015 – a long-standing point of displeasure for the Polish left.
We shouldn’t assume that this schema was designed all at once, but rather is the product of evolution. For example, maybe the external_id was added after the initial release in order to support the creation of unique ids in the application layer.
One good argument I found [^1] about not exposing primary keys is that primary keys may change (during system/db change) and you want to ensure users have a consistent way of accessing data.

I took a Haskell course in grad school from someone who contributed to Haskell.

They made the claim that the primary function (lol) of Haskell was to discover new PL ideas which then got adopted by the major languages.
As mentioned in several other comments, the numbers of yakuza members have reduced significantly in the 25 years since this article was published.

An often unmentioned aspect of these gangs is that many people end up in them due to the ongoing discrimination against Japanese people of buraku descent:

https://www.kcpinternational.com/2021/09/the-burakumin-of-ja...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yakuza#Burakumin

The buraku are not genetically distinct from other yamato Japanese, they were just stigmatized due to buddhist concepts of "impurity", and an effort to replicate the "untouchable" practices of India while importing buddhism.

As such, in the modern world, they often had little other opportunity in life outside of yakuza membership.

Many yakuza practices are violent and abusive, and I don't want to offer any apologetics for those practices. But like a lot of discussion of crime, the root cause (mostly poverty) is often overlooked, and the elimination of poverty and lack of opportunity downplayed as a possible solution.

I passed the first level right now. The game is OK but there are a couple of things that confused me.

The small example at the home page didn't prepare me to play the level. I had to place many pieces on the board before I realized that the sum of the number of dots must match the number on the rows and columns. The example didn't lead me to that.

I'm in almost the same boat. Speed absolutely matters, but you only notice it when you don't have it.

I'm working on a large Dart project and a long time ago someone thought that having the project split up into 100 packages would be a great idea (it's not).

My previous editor was IntelliJ as I am used to its keyboard shortcuts, but it struggled with our setup: constant freezes and even if it didn't freeze, it would take seconds until the suggestions came up (or when I wanted to rename a local variable, smh).

I was so frustrated by it, that I installed helix, it was fast so I'm now learning to use it as my daily driver.

I have now both open, doing my editing on helix, and if I feel like I can go something faster in IntelliJ (which now happens less and less often), I do that little thing in IntelliJ and come back to helix.

Why helix: it's "great by default" and I didn't have much success with setting up and customizing NeoVim (it didn't feel good, the plugin were annoying to learn, and it started to slow down). I'm sure it a skill issue, but helix just works for me, and I can live without plugins for now.

> It's the default on Ubuntu and RHEL, which are the two most popular enterprise distros.

For servers; that's not super compelling.

> Ubuntu is also the most popular consumer Linux distro.

That's a much stronger argument, though I'd point out that Linux distros are disproportionally used by people given to customization, so the default may not be as important.
Making requests is one thing, because Apple can deny the request, while using Pegasus simply hacks the phone without oversight.
This seems like a rhetorical question if you have even a passing familiarity with Alabama.

> Downloading 3GB of dependencies is not a thing that happens in the Rust ecosystem. Reality is orders of magnitude smaller than that.

Assuming they're talking about the built size of dependencies that are left lying around after cargo builds a binary, they're really not exaggerating by much. I have no difficulty of believing that there are Rust projects that leave 3GB+ of dependency bloat on your file system after you build them.

To take the last Rust project I built, magic-wormhole.rs [1], the source code I downloaded from Github was 1.6 MB. After running `cargo build --release`, the build directory is now 618 MB and there's another 179 MB in ~/.cargo, for a total of 800 MB used.

All this to build a little command line program that sends and receives files over the network over a simple protocol (build size 14 MB). God forbid I build something actually complicated written in Rust, like a text editor.

Well, let's consider Imminent Lawless Action and its predecessors.

"Under the imminent lawless action test, speech is not protected by the First Amendment if the speaker intends to incite a violation of the law that is both imminent and likely."

It will be awesome when your own car pulls up at 8am to take you to work and there's vomit and trash everywhere, spilled drinks, dirty shoes, stale vape smoke lingering in the air.

Sure there might be rules and fines but people already do all this when there is real human driving the taxi!

Plus, do you really expect everyone to treat your items with the same respect and care you do? Even little things like slamming the doors or scratching up the seats with metal belts or jean studs.

Yeah maybe Tesla will make it right. But at how much effort? How correct will it be fixed?
Not GP but I have the same set up and have only had a couple times where I received unexpected emails to an inbox. One was from GitHub profile scraping, can't remember what the other one was.

One of the surprisingly useful areas is with deliveries. Emails from delivery companies (especially from abroad) often don't specify what it is they're delivering or who it's from. But with this set up I can easily check that with the email address they're sending to, to know who it's from
This hints at the key problem, which is that there are two kinds of slide decks: those meant to accompany a live presentation, and those meant to be flipped through with no accompaniment.

Time to paste it into dolphin-2.2 and ask for a summary. :P
In the face of scope creep, changing requirements, unforeseeable external factors, and purely human factors (like corruption, incompetence, neglect, internal rivalries, etc.), projects always faced huge risks. Projects nowadays are vastly bigger in scope (perhaps unnecessarily so), but the usual mechanisms to control the inefficiencies of bureaucracies are not easy to scale up.
> So if someone wants to live in a home without parking, it should be illegal?

That's a good question, difficult to answer in the general sense.

At the individual level the answer seems very easy. Of course I wouldn't want it to be illegal to live however you want or configure your apartment however you like, with or without parking! You do you.

But what about the next owner? If the very first owner gets to spec the apartment however they like (before it gets built) and opts for no parking that's fine. But later they sell it and the next owner needs a car so now they join the street parking scene. Multiply this by all the units and over time it's a problem.

Because ultimately housing lasts for a very long time. That new building is likely to stand there for a century or more, so those initial decisions of how many parking spots it has vs. units will last for a very long time, far beyond the preferences of the first buyer. So it's not that easy.

Your conviction is in contradiction with perhaps the most strongly held compulsion of everyone, everywhere, or that has ever existed. That alone should give reason to question it. You sound like you're motivated by spite.
Let me know of a place without baseload generation / with it replaced by renewables. These are interesting claims to make but there’s no existence proof.

Almost every place that goes all in on renewables inevitably uses fossil fuels, nuclear, or hydro to backfill the baseload demand (and usually fossil fuels since nuclear has very few projects and hydro is very regional and maxed out wherever practical).
Well, Lake Michigan adjacent in winter has always been considered uninhabitable by millions.
> integers are faster than floats

Bignums are not faster in general and more work, but yeah: optimizing float (or bignum) to machine int is a win. This was one of the first type specializations done in the JS JIT wars of 2008.
Nope. CompCert is an example of software that was mostly proven correct (all the important stuff) and zero bugs have ever been found in the proven correct parts. So yes you can indeed write zero bugs software.
Rails isn't dead. In fact Hotwire and Stimulus have breathed some new life back into the community. With Rails 7 there's new and interesting changes happening like the normalize method for normalizing data before it's persisted to the database, the new testing coverage, and the new encrypted credentials, which can replace devise as it's easier to extend. STI is still awesome and concerns help DRY up the code. I know it's not the new kid on the block anymore, but if you code into a Rails way of doing things it's still crazy fast for rapid development.
Copyright assignment is also why Oracle could close back Solaris, including 3rd party code.

Any form of copyright assignment that isn't "here, fuck me over if you want" will be similarly fraught with peril because majority of the world considers copyright assignment to be same category of contract as AGPL/GPL/etc.
The first part if true: Romans did depend on slavery, as did most ancient societies.

I am less convinced that engine jargon is derived from that. Where the terminology is master and slave specifically, yes, but not necessarily in slave societies. Where the terminology is master and something other than slave, I do not think so.

Slave is pretty unambiguous. Master less so. To a middle aged British bloke like myself the strongest association of master that I grew up with was "male school teacher". Master craftsman is also a significant association.

I think our argument can be simplified to centralized vs decentralized systems. Ideally, centralized systems are great. 2 parties can trust and work with each other as a 3rd party is the source of truth. Any of the parties can go to the 3rd when they are wronged and need a resolution. It works great, until it doesn't. In our case, the 3rd party has a conflict of interest and can decide if party 1 or 2 can do business at all.

Decentralized, each user takes on more risk, but the benefit is that no one party is deciding who can do business and who can't. That burden is left on the buyer to decide if the seller is legit and the smart contract can be the source of truth.

The difference is that people who support decentralized systems are not trying to get rid of centralized systems altogether. They understand their necessity, but also realize decentralized systems can add some needed competition. That will improve centralized systems in the future as well.
The question was "doesn't that [quality, to be able to stay with you and change you] apply to every film?"

And my answer is: not exactly, it applies best to movies that are not "mainstream blockbuster trash".

I'm pretty sure we can find some people for which some of the 200 movies in the Avengers franchize resonated with them and changed their life. Especially since billions saw them (and unprobable events will tend to happen as the sample size grows). After all, Hallmark movies also resonate with many people. And in the right conditions, say our dog just died, they can make even the more cynical of us cry.

But generally, better movies have that quality more. This is what makes the better in the first place: touching on some essential aspect of humanity in a non-trite way. Doesn't have to be classics as in "old movies favored by critics", just generally movies made with more vision, integrity, and core message than "look 2 hours of explosions and fancy effects mixed with reshased cookie cutter dialog", or "look at these two cute young people fall in love, have a falling out, and getting back again") will tend to resonate with people more deeply and in more nuanced ways.
Organized crime argues law is unconstitutional...
No, that's not it. I refuse to buy a new Tesla because of some of the less user friendly (and IMO should be illegal) cost cutting measures:

- Horrible QA
(https://www.equinoxevforum.com/threads/cracks-developing-in-...)
- Extremely customer-hostile support strategies
(https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2023/08/angry-tesla-cust...)
- Absurd cost-cutting measures/temporary bouts of insanity that cripple the UX of their cars:
- Why does the Model 3/Y not have steering wheel stalks!?
- Why did they try to offer the Model S with only a (bad) yoke!?
- Why is there no HUD/gauge cluster on the Model 3/Y!?

I won't even get into just how ugly I (and anecdotally, many of my friends) find the Cybertruck; have you SEEN videos of people trying to actually use it as a truck and it completely failing to function offroad?

All of this stuff is directly attributable to Elon Musk. He's demanding a 25% stake in the company from his board - the same board that was found to be so absurdly stacked in his favor that his last pay package was thrown out.

Shareholders, at this point, should kick this guy out of Tesla and leave him to his true passions: shitposting on Twitter and SpaceX.

Do tell me, what are these incredible ads that users would be okay with seeing?

These incredible ads that make money to the company paying for the ads, so they must be visible, yet somehow not intrusive.

These incredible ads that are always relevant, thus never annoying, despite the fact nobody is going to buy 1 chair for every time they see an ad about chairs, and they will see 1000 ads for every 1000 pages they visit.

Do tell me what are these magical ads that people wouldn't have a problem with.

Because I'll tell you: even if such amazing ads existed, people STILL would feel entitled to getting free content without the ads!

It's just how it is. Users will never be okay with ads because ads will ALWAYS be bad UX. If you think it's possible to make good UX ads, you will revolutionize the marketing world. People who stand around distributing pamphlets will be thrilled to learn how they can hand people pamphlets and spread a message without being obnoxious and handing it to the right person 100% of the time instead of handing it to 1000 people and getting it right only once.

Don't compare Apples with oranges. Android and iOS have roughly the same amount of malware and similar app sandboxes that neuters malware unless the user is utterly braindead and granted the app all kinds of unnecessary permissions.

Regardless, just like it's possible to leave your gun out and get shot by your own child, it should also be possible to infect your own device with malware if you don't care about safety.

Stop infantilizing people and let them make their own choices.
Have you had your T levels checked? And done bloodwork to check nutrient levels?

Low T can definitely limit the ability to be lean.

Other factors - over training (6 times a week would be pushing it for me years ago, today is 3-4 max). Poor sleep. Poor diet (carbs, crappy over processed foods).

Many many individual factors to consider. It's truly hard to generalize these things.

Honestly this just feels like someone looking for a fight. I was creating custom utility classes a decade ago—long before Tailwind. Bootstrap, Foundation and other css frameworks of the time did something similar.

Tailwind is nice because it’s fast and you have a good idea what you’re going to get while writing it. Nobody believes that it’s the pinnacle of performance or maintainability. Keep using Tailwind if you like it and it’s appropriate for your project or business.

To me the difference seems to come in with “mass industrialization” or de-personalization.

I think this can be generalized across a lot of industries, and I think it boils down to our human need to feel like we’re more than just a small cog.
