Immigration Is Fueling US Economic Growth While Politicians Rage
The two runways in my city's fairly small, low traffic airport are roughly 1.7 and 2.42 miles long (2.745 and 3.9 kilometres to be precise).

It doesn't help that the city of San Francisco is quite tiny, only 7 by 7 miles. When you consider that Denver International has to fit six runways as well as its apron, terminals, hangars, various facilities, and the transit space needed to link all these plus an acceptable amount of buffer space for safety and noise reduction...yeah.
DBeaver has an Excel-ish interface for SQL. The usual rows and columns layout, you can double click a cell to edit it.

You do have to Save to flush the changes to the DB though, and the errors when queries are wrong or whatever are hard to read. Your users will likely be totally unable to grok the errors. I work in IT and it's somewhat difficult for me because of the chain of error handlers (SQL -> Java error type -> Java error -> display to user; there's a lot of Java stuff mixed into your SQL errors).
I know. Still.
No, see, this is exactly the type of misunderstanding I wanted to clear up: there is an entire lineage of different hominids that came after the split with chimpanzees. If we consider gorillas, orangutans and chimpanzees apes, then all of the hominids are apes. And all of those hominids either went fully extinct, or interbred with early homo sapiens to leave some living traces of their DNA with us, and then went extinct.

So "our predecessors" isn't specific enough. One might mean our pre-ape ancestors, like you do, or the subgroup of apes that is hominids.

No. One can be sober while having unlimited alcohol at hand. Being responsible requires to consume with moderation. The problem is not resources but what we do with them.

>You forgot to mention that all those Operating Systems you mentioned allow the user to break free from restrictions if they desire to do so because the machine is their property after all.

If you read past the first sentence, you would discover I wrote more than just that one. In fact, the second sentence which starts with:

>Sure those users can install anything else they want as well

and then goes on to explain why super hardened security OSs aren't even mainstream among tech people who should in theory be all about super hardened security in their OS.

>If it's not voluntary, what's the difference between Apple's behavior and Tony Soprano's behavior?

Except it is voluntary. Apple didn't force anyone to buy an iPhone. They didn't walk into people's homes with a baseball bat in hand commenting on the "nice general purpose computers you've got here". They didn't promise free computing and the ability to install anything from anywhere and then suddenly switch away locking people in after investing in a huge open system where none of their apps are available anywhere else. Any user can walk away from the iPhone simply by buying a device from any one of a number of other sellers, all of which offer Android OSes with all the freedoms they could possibly want, and Apple can't do anything about it, nor will Apple show up at their house in the middle of the night to leave a headless server in their bed sheets.
Lately, my gut feel (not based on data analysis) is that there are more people commenting without upvoting than there used to be. I wonder whether that's true.
pipx – Install and Run Python Applications in Isolated Environments
I think visualizing it like this is very strange. I am not a legal expert but I have read a lot of law textbooks.

Normally, I’d expect blackletter law to form a somewhat sparse, tentacle-like structure.

Case law (or “cases” or “jurisprudence”) is by its nature largely interstitial: it consists of judges “filling in the holes” that are left by any unclear meaning (requiring interpretation) of blackletter law, or in some cases by the absence of such.

Having case law and blackletter law form two distinct clusters makes no sense to me: I really think it’s a domain modelling error. It’s what I would expect to see if one applied a text similarity measure naively to some data set, without regard for the domain models.
Well Californians and their politicians do support climate science so your taxes can go there at least.
That's good to know thanks, I'm very much a layperson in my readings and was curious as to how it differed.
Long time lurker here. Decided to create an account to respond.

I actually used to own a C-LAB Falcon Mk II for a few years before I sold it off after the great tech layoffs of 2023 just to make ends meet. It was a really neat system... almost something of an anachronism, considering C-LAB pumped these out well after Atari bailed on computers in exchange for putting all their eggs in the ill-fated Atari Jaguar basket.

To that end, I'm unduly impressed with the community around this computer. I've gotten more online help on the Falcon than I ever did on any other retro system I've owned in the past. The fanbase is clearly passionate. I even sent my C-LAB Falcon over to Centuriontech out in the Czech Republic, and he did an outstanding job on a capacitor replacement job I needed done. The multilayer PCB made working with some of the components a bit tricky, especially for a soldering iron novice like myself.

It's a real shame I had to sell it off, but bills needed to be paid, and I ended up making a profit on the sale, despite all the money I poured into repairs and cleanup of the system. Even with its dodgy software compatibility with older ST titles, it would have been cool to keep it in my collection for the long haul.
Humans do not need “faith” to function.

If you’re talking about “having faith” as in “I have faith my car will start with morning”, then yes, but that is not the same thing as theological faith. I have loads of evidence and experience that I can draw on to “have faith my car will start”, whereas “faith” in the context of religion means to “believe absent evidence”.
Imo Apex Legend is one of those game like Team Fortress 2, where it's only at a higher number of hours that you can truly develop your game senses and not die stupidly.

It's those game where there is so much to learn and with a high skill ceiling, so it takes time to get good at it.
Airlines should go build their hubs in a better geographical location than major cities, like O'hare. And pay for it with their own money.

At ORD for example, something like half of all the air traffic are connecting flights. There's a bit of money to be made by gate fees, but the pressure on the surrounding suburbs (I don't even know if the neighbors even get those fees, since the airport is technically within Chicago's city limits) to allow whatever expansion is necessary for American and United to make more money ferrying people over our homes is untenable.

That was a nice change of direction from "it's trivial to shut down" to "how many users are capable". And the answer is - basically every single one of them is capable, it's just a matter of motivation. The right tools exist, the learning curve is somewhat steep, but this is irrelevant.
It's also worth bearing in mind that much theology is an attempt to explain what the experience of God is like. The experience of God is not (for Tillich, nor perhaps for very many moderns) about finding a literal place and time in which God-the-being can be directly observed. To seek God and expect to find a being who exists in the same manner as a tree or a building is to set oneself up for failure.

When Tillich says "The courage to be is rooted in the God who appears when God has disappeared in the anxiety of doubt" he is describing the psychological process the seeker undergoes. In his case, he identifies God with the open, reflective cast of mind in which one engages with the unknowable, ineffable, combinatorally-explosive possibilities that are found at the horizons of our understanding. The "state of being grasped by an ultimate concern" is one in which we are trying - and necessarily failing - to see beyond the horizon. And yet, something sustains us in the effort, which is faith in God.

Doubtless this really is a very different kind of faith than other self-described Christians might have, whose faith might be rooted in a different mode of being and engagement with the world. And, to be clear, Tillich's description is very much "what it's like" to have his variety of faith, and not a metaphysical claim about the workings of the universe. A different Christian might hold much stronger claims about God's precise nature and existence, but for Tillich those beliefs were unsustainable.
Redis Switches Licenses
I had a private flight two years ago. The place was close to a garage. People who are ultra rich visit those places. Airports are just like prisions for common people, because they need to spend hours in it.
Taxi is not the main way to leave airports in large part of the world.
That sounds like exceptionally poor planning. Just to confirm, the new airport served pretty much only international flights? It should have been the nexus for domestic travel to connect to the big hop to Europe, meaning it should have had a ton of domestic routes as well feeding it.
The new license is incompatible with Debian policy:

https://www.debian.org/doc/debian-policy/ch-archive.html#the...

The new licensing scheme effectively excludes redis from most of the open ecosystem, by cascading network effects from things like this. In this case, if you're building a package, if you pick redis, you've excluded yourself from distribution in many major distros.

Ditto for many other similar effects.

It's not fear-mongering. It's following laws and policies.
It would be increasing regardless of what we did in Ukraine. It should surprise nobody that the United States does not negotiate with terrorists.
I do agree with you, but I can also appreciate that this is the purpose of insurance. It's perverted to a point where it no longer serves its intended purpose, but on paper, this is how it should work. We all pool money together, some people use it more (if they live in Florida, for example), but we're all paying in just in case we end up needing it.

Because insurance companies are fucking ghouls, the system doesn't work that way, which is why I agree with you considering the current system.
This is open-source, you can spin up your own instance.

It’s my home computer. It’s there to be used intermittently when needed at random times. It sleeps drawing almost zero power. Why should I shut it down?

Shutdown takes 20 seconds. Startup requires the FileVault password, then 20-30 seconds, then a login, then another 20-30 seconds until desktop is usable (and a few more until Firefox is).

If this was my work computer, it wouldn’t be so inconvenient to restart / shutdown once a day. But for what reason?
While I think this article is a bit of a nothing burger, I really wish politicians had the same rules for purchasing stocks as employees of a company. Specific times when purchases can be made and stock purchase plans. Maybe even limit them to index funds.

> Apple stopped making it easy for apps to get permanent access to a user's location.

> The main points of differentiation of AirTags vis a vis Tile are enabled by platform capabilities that we don't have access to.

Apple makes it easy for their product (AirTags) to have always on location permissions. Apple makes it hard for their competitor (Tile) to have always on location permissions.

Apple is using their ecosystem to advantage their AirTag business instead of competing on the same playing field as Tile.
It is quite nice what `sed` does. A sed search-and-replace is typically shown as `s/foo/bar/`, but you can actually use any punctuation character to separate the parts. Whatever follows the "s" will be used for that statement, so you can write `s|foo|bar|` or `s:foo:bar:`, even mixing and matching in the same script to have `s|baz|quux|; s:xyzzy:blorp:` and it will all work.
> But I’d argue that (mental) health would suffer way more than compared to all health effects of sugar.

Have you seen the mental health statistics? What they all have in common in having been raised, and living on, refined sugar (and other foods unsuitable for human consumption), not cannabis.

I'm not saying cannabis is a always a good idea, but even so mainly because it's often in the context of having already frail health, and combination, oftentimes with literal poisons like alcohol.

There's a huge hypocrisy around it being a question of public health; it's not, if it were, sugar would be highly taxed and regulated (esp. not being marketed to children), alcohol would be banned, etc. It still surprises me this hasn't permeated yet, as the information is now widely available.

The US has no alternative forms of transport. Taking an airplane is the most convenient way.

In Germany, Italy, Switzerland, France, and the UK taking a train is faster and more convenient (even if more expensive often)
The secure enclave is not a general-purpose/user-programmable processor. It only runs Apple-signed code, and access is only exposed via the Keychain APIs, which only support a very limited set of cryptographic operations.

Presumably latency for any operation is also many orders of magnitude higher than in-thread crypto, so that just doesn't work for many applications.

Kudos to you guys, the elimination of the need for lawyers is up there with any societal issue you care to name. It may do more for social justice than funding anything else

Cmake's built-in find_package[1] often[2] just ends up using pkg-config[3] under the hood. There are a bunch of environment variables you can set to add more search paths, either to pkg-config or to CMake Find scripts. If a library isn't packaged for CMake or pkg-config, you can write a CMake package and add it to your user package registry[4].

This is, of course, a massive pain in the ass, but C & C++ library packaging is about twelve different kinds of massive pain in the ass, and CMake is easier to write than a lot of the other packaging formats, so this is a small part of it.

You may notice that I did not specify theological faith.
Bootstrapping is one option that many still choose over external funding. In the lean startup sense, ie a slow burn, low burn rate.

Others may opt for non-VC financing (bank, personal loan, friends, family) or using their own savings as capital, where low burn rate isn't possible.

There's no silver bullet unless you're already rich.
I think this is on point, but does point to the limits/faults in his work. I recall being very energized by Tillich in my youth and at the very beginnings of my religious exploration, but was very surprised that the sort of "ambiguity" he was trying to parse was much more well laid out in classical theologians (Aquinas, etc), i.e. "to define God, the limitless being, is to inherently apply limit" which is why theologians have traditionally pursued God via "what He is Not" as we can certainly say that God is not limited, time bound, etc.

Tillich's "ambiguity" was very approachable in my youth, but today I find it extremely dangerous from a moral and philosophical perspective. There is truth in what is said, but unless you have the context in which it is said you can quickly spin it to your heart's delight. My primary takeaway as a youth was "this is great and very theological/intellectually stimulating while not morally demanding of me whatsoever, hooray!" which is why, as a stubborn young adult, certainly found it attractive.

FWIW, if anybody wants a great challenge that seeks to bridge classical theology with modern/personalist/subjective thought, you should read Man and Woman He Created Them by John Paul II. It is as rewarding as it is dense and gave me the bridge between "old" and "new" philosophy/theology that I find lacking in many moderns.

> Are you really saying that when you prompt an LLM with ‘name a large grey land animal’ and it outputs ‘ele’, it isn’t ‘planning’ that the next token will likely be ‘phant’?

The model outputs words, not tokens, so that is not a great example.

Any prompt will have multiple possible (predict next word) continuations, which you can think of as branching futures. Many possible next words, each of which have many possible following words, etc, etc.

The model is essentially predicting over all these possible futures. You can call it planning if you like, but remember that the model has no idea of which of these branching futures it is going to follow - it literally doesn't even know which word it is going to output next - it is just providing a bunch of probabilities (predictions) of next word, and the sampling process is then picking one - not necessarily the most confident next word prediction.

The model really is winging it word by word, even if those (multiple alternative) next words are only probable because they are part of coherent following sentences in the training data.
> Like how long it takes to fly humans to mars. It hasn't happened yet, we can only estimate and try to project it, so the case that it might take as long as it took to sail across some particular ocean for some particular group of people with the technology they had at the time is not only kind of irrelevant, but also not a claim that can be supported. This is what's typically referred to as "fudging the numbers"

OTOH, we have sent robots and we know the underlying physics very well indeed. We have also sent an electric car with a test dummy wearing a flight-suit into a Mars-crossing orbit. If Musk had actually wanted to continue with the Red Dragon concept (which IIRC wasn't planned to be crewed), it could've already landed by now.

We also know what it would take to go substantially faster, and that we either don't have the tech (e.g. fusion), or don't want to risk it (e.g. fission), or we can't afford it (e.g. non-rocket launch systems). Even if we had more advanced propulsion, significantly faster trips are more likely to be exceptions than the rule until we have enough infrastructure in space that Mars itself stops being an interesting destination.
Yeah, NIMBY gets used way too much for I want something and screw anyone who has negative externalities as a result.
Anyone who's calling a "fall" is being disingenuous.

There absolutely is a massive economic slowdown in China. That said, it will NOT lead to a Soviet style collapse.

That said, a persistent long term slowdown will absolutely lead to overcompensation on the foreign policy side, as past experiences with Russia and Turkey have shown.
Earthquake risk is largely not the problem. Wildfire risk is the same deal though, our insurance and electricity costs are incredibly inflated to subsidize the small fraction of the population that wants to live in the wilderness.
