To accept this view is to accept the idea that most of our ancestors had "childhood poverty trauma". I just don't see how it's a useful frame.

DRM is software that stops media or other software from working on your machine. It could be based in individual authorization, license key, or it could be something like a geo check.

Providing or not providing a service based on a region could be done with DRM (as I mentioned at the end of the previous example), or I could block IPs in that region, or I could require information to use the service that people in different regions may not have (ie SSN), or I could simply ask the user where they are and not service them if they are in certain regions.

Claude is not running on end users computers. If it were and they were restricting use within certain regions, that would be done with DRM.
Personally in my experience office hours were not that helpful, I was working fulltime at a factory while I was attending university, I simply did not have time to hang around professors offices (My Manager allowed me time off to attend lectures but there was no allowance outside of that), if I needed to study for exams I'd have to take annual leave for example.

Email was single best method I had if I needed to ask professor anything, some professors would reply promptly and some would take weeks to answer an email.

Even if Students don't work fulltime many of them rely on part time jobs (at least here in Australia) - for example one of my housemates worked as a delivery driver for a freight company and another worked in a call center. I think sometimes the professors assume students have more time to spare in the middle of the day then they do.
Is there a language server for Swift that does not suck?

I believe swift is a good language, however its ecosystem being steered by apple is a massive red flag. It also suffers a bit from being a commercially developed language in that its developers are clearly incentivized to add more features.
I'm as conservative as they come and this decision makes the most sense in my mind. There is no natural right to drive a car. Streets are public properties to be used how 'the public' (that is 'the government' sees fit). It is absolutely within the right of the city to tax cars. The law is not obviously immoral as all data (and my own experience) indicate that new york city is most easily traversed by subway and bus, and it has a long history of a robust public transit system. Governments need to choose where to spend tax money and the market results show that, even before this tax, residents preferred transit. Thus it makes sense to deprioritize private autos for transit. People who want to own cars should live somewhere other than manhattan (my goodness... are people really so dense these days that this needs to be spelled out for them?)
A very close friend of mine was murdered at 18, his sister was a year younger and she matured very quickly as a result of this experience. She’s now in her early 20s and you’d assume she’s 35 by her personality and view points.

> It costs more to build a road that supports a bus than it does to build a road that only supports cars.

This isn’t true and it’s also missing a bigger point: you need many more lanes for cars than buses. That space is not providing economic value and has to be subsidized using general fund revenue when it could be used by businesses or for housing.
"The road to hell is paved with good intentions"

I mean in theory, you're absolutely right but so rarely does it ever actually shake out that way. It seems like corporations continue to make the same mistakes while simultaneously being held less and less accountable.

Literally hundreds of people have died due to Boeing's negligence recently and the prevailing opinion seems to be that no one is ultimately going to be held accountable. (at least not meaningfully)

Ideals are great and all but if it results in zero accountability when hundreds of people die, maybe its time for us to re-evaluate.

I've been working on https://growfa.st.

A lot of times, websites suggest I sign up for a 5-10% discount/promo code. That might lead to a sale and they get one more user to their email list.

GrowFast takes that a step furtver by offering a widget that provides different tasks for the user to complete in order to receive the promo code. The tasks range between user generated content leading to more organic traffic, user reviews and even testimonials (haven't decided fully on the tasks just yet).

I think this is a cool concept and I hope companies think likewise.

The history of science generally doesn't seem to be characterized by shifts in theory due to empirical disproofs. Usually, when theories are "disproved", we don't want to throw out the baby with the bathwater, but rather, we want to stick to the theory and try to patch it up. When Uranus didn't seem to be moving according to the predictions of Newtonian mechanics (a disproof!), physicists didn't throw out Newton, they posited the existence of another planet. And they turned out to be right, Neptune existed.

See Chalmers' What is This Thing Called Science? for an introduction to these kinds of topics, or Kuhn and Feyerabend's work for historical responses. (And the Duhem-Quine thesis for the "auxiliary hypothesis" response to falsifiability I hinted at with my example.)
The prescription thing is probably location specific, but AFAIK you can just buy them online. I have a few spares I bought online from back when I frequently slept in different places.

Masks straps could probably be fitted with an accelerometer to detect positioning. If they can make heated tubing, this isn't such a stretch. Might also be useful in correctly flagging events: my machine often incorrectly marks position switches as periods of hypopnea.
It’s benefiting the residents who use the improved public transit.

You want a process and commitment, a clear distinction between which things are first-class and which things aren't. If this is just an experimental project that may not go anywhere, fine. If this is meant to be the new way of writing Gnome apps, displacing Vala, and they're going to support it in LTS releases for at least the next n years, fine. But it should be clear which it is.
To shed some light on why Americans kept checks for so long: I'm 33 and have never done a bank transfer. I can't even say what the flaws in our system are, because I grew up in a family where it was never considered as an option: money was sent as cash or checks only.
Uh, no? The whole point is that the entire system breaks down. So you get sleep deprived humans who can't process food properly and have no energy as a result. Sounds like a big failure.
But the point was that if you were hit with a full container ship at 0.1 mph and not allowed to move you'd be dead.

The only reason why a high energy but slow moving object (thus high momentum) is harmless is that it will deliver a small acceleration to you and you won't suffer from the consequences of a high acceleration (which is what generally kills people when they hit something like the ground at high speeds). But that assumes that you're free to be accelerated and move away.

> how meaningful parenthood will be to their life.

Parenthood is very obviously not meaningful to every parent's life. There are plenty of people that just don't make good parents (and who may never make good parents). Saying "you should have kids because of how meaningful it will be!" is a bad thing to say to a narcissist or someone that's overly self involved. Kids need time, attention, and love. Not everyone can or wants to give that. Yes it's sad, yes it's wrong, but it's also a fact.

I have family members in this boat, the kids greatly suffer as a result.

Social norms and defaults have a tendency to shame people into bad positions. Sure, some may benefit, but others will flounder and take their kids/family down with them.
Oh do I get the pain of hardware lost due to short sighted ambitions. Some many things I have let go over the years.

But let me try to make you feel a bit better. A lot of this retro hardware nowadays is more about maintenance rather than just using it. If you are into that, it is great! But for many it just comes to a point of trying ever harder just to keep these things going. It is to be the technology Sisyphus.

Last year I finally gave up on my Powermac G5 when the power supply went, a machine much younger than any Next hardware. I just gave it away to someone that had the patience to work with it. Unfortunately the FIF (F*K It Factor) is a thing that eventually creeps up and it becomes a case of passing these things onto others that have a higher tolerance for aging hardware issues.

>Of course it's wrong, on Mars the sun is blue

I’m not an Astrophysicist but already this seems like shaky ground.

Apparently at certain times like during sunsets the sun can appear blue on Mars, but it’s not generally true like your comment suggests.

Moreover if you ask GPT4 about sunsets on Mars it knows they can look blue.

I’m not sure I can conclude much from the examples given.
I'd second every recommendation in this thread for "Thinking Fast And Slow" - it's one of those books that gives you a concept that has such immediate salience that it feels like it unlocks some part of reality you didn't see before but is totally obvious in retrospect.

One of the few other books that's changed my thinking about my thinking in similar ways is Annie Murphy Paul's "The Extended Mind" - https://bookshop.org/p/books/the-extended-mind-the-power-of-... . It's hard to put anything at the level of Thinking Fast and Slow, but it felt like reading a sequel to that book.
> Add cardholders of any age, so everyone can build credit

I actually don't believe that's legal, as credit cards are always issued under Terms and Conditions, which are a legal contract and thus inaccessible to under 13 in most jurisdictions. I observe that any rando is free to give the credit card that is issued in their name to their 5 year old to go into the store and buy anything a 5 year old is legally able to purchase, but the financial responsibility falls to the person to whom the card is issued

but, hey, what do I know in the face of "up and to the right"
> it's about how people having kids later means you won't meet your great grandparents.

It really depends.

When I was born my youngest grandma was 50. She already had three grandchildren.

I already had only 3 grandparents, one had died when my father was young, having survived two world wars, ironic ain't it?

At the age of 10 only one grandma was still alive, but she lived to the age of 95 and managed to meet 4 great grand-children.

My cousins had children late in their lives, their parents were average for their times.

I would say that meeting your grand parents is a benefit that has become a given only for the past 2-3 generations, when life and work conditions improved so much that it became the norm.
Memcached Proxy
A generic cache pool management proxy, built into the memcached daemon. It supports all of the text protocol. It is designed to abstract clients away from pools of memcached servers, for ease of management, scale-out, and portability. It uses Lua to create a highly flexible configuration system, allowing a company to fully customize how requests are routed to fit their specific needs. It also comes with standard libraries for common use cases.

Okay, now I'm more curious about your experiences here and need some details. What kind of school were you at? US based? R1? Ivy league? Were you teaching undergrad? Were you tenured? What kinds of classes exactly, undergrad, grad, upper division, etc? Full on 300+ person intro courses? Like, I've never heard of a teacher talking about students this way before. So, sorry for the peppering here.
Except, you own your car and have to pay to maintain it already. A better comparison would be taxis, which we do pay for per-use, like with a train.
Design by contract? That technique which “shuts down your program”/panics on assertion failure? You seem to contradict yourself.
Cars do pollute less but are still a major hazard and quality of life reduction. If you ask people why they come to NYC, nobody says it’s to listen to people honk at each other or almost get run over in the crosswalk by an Uber driver. People may say that they accept the background car noise as a cost of living in the city but nobody sees it as a positive.
I used to take these with a grain of salt indeed, but this is a meta study that finds effects that seem consistent.

I think that happiness probably includes meaning for a lot of people and furthermore it’s a hard sell telling them that they shouldn’t want to be happy.

I’d also turn around the statement about parents who wish they hadn’t had kids (though I did at one point accidentally date a woman who was married with children who clearly didn’t want any of that) to say that I also suspect that those who avoided having children on purpose also rarely regret that decision; some people are just different ultimately I suppose.
> Car buying’s risky and hellish

Agreed! I just make sure to buy cheaper vehicles so I don’t worry about spending an extra 5% or 10% if I “get scammed” by the dealer. So they made some extra money? Who cares. I don’t negotiate for my pint and burger either.

This approach has saved me a lot of stress.

This is spot-on. Though I think the interesting thing here is just demonstrating that you _can_ build this kind of thing at all and a cross-platform-SwiftUI-like framework isn't a pipe dream.

For production use-cases at this moment in time, I'd probably lean towards using Swift's pretty-good C++ interop functionality to thinly wrap a more battle-tested C++ library.
> I don't remember the US directly doing much of anything in ex-Yu, other than some sorties

Reducing the US/NATO involvement in the former Yugoslavia (both the intervention in the Bosnia War and subsequent deployment of IFOR/SFOR and later the NATO-Yugoslavia War and the subsequent deployment in KFOR) to “some sorties” seems to be missing a bit.

I mean, sure, the combat involvement prior to achieving agreements in both cases was application of air power, but...
I don't know how you can say that (other than your personal preference).
The seating mockup feels uncomfortable to me as the rows angle towards one another. It's ok to face a stranger for a short train ride, but on a long flight I'd feel less comfortable.
Evidentially it is possible to make GTK apps work at least somewhat nicely on Windows and Mac since there are a few out there. But it's clearly a ton of work. If you just make a standard GTK app it will be terrible. Most toolkits (e.g. Qt or even Flutter) work much nicer without having to fix them.
I don't see how that is relevant to the parent comment. The question isn't whether they ignored the intelligence; did they ignore the intelligence because of incompetence or because they wanted to ramp up their colonialist programs?

Either way, this seems stupid for Israel. They're a group of Jews in the middle of a sea of muslims, their military edge is weakening and they will be relying on goodwill in the future. Their long term interests are not served by solving problems with large scale military operations, or by doing anything that fuels the perception that they might be genocidal.
Oh well. It’s more important to well-actually your knowledge of typewriter characters than to explain the history of why Windows is apparently the only platform (not Linux, not Mac, probably not the BSDs) that had to take “backwards compatibility” into concern.

Are we talking about the same thing? "Shifting goal posts" usually means confusing positions in an argument by changing the point of the discussion. I'm not sure what relevance that has here.

Also, the US occupation of Afghanistan did last for decades so, again, I'm not sure what point you are trying to make.
I'd recommend watching this video by "Not Just Bikes": [Suburbia is Subsidized: Here's the Math](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7Nw6qyyrTeI).

The city also has to pay for utility lines, which are much more expensive in suburban sprawl than the urban center. Also, zoning laws make it more expensive to build apartments, so you really only get single-family houses in the suburbs and apartments in the inner city. If you use property taxes to pay for infrastructure, the inner-city residents (living in apartments, and likely poorer) are paying most of the money for infrastructure they never use.
I had a similar experience!

this isn't really true. EV brakes barely get any use because of regenerative breaking, and EV tires tend to be stiffer which mostly evens out the tires.
Don't forget the disabled. Can't use 75% of subway stations because you're in a wheelchair? Pay the fee because it's now your problem that MTA doesn't prioritize accessibility.
Transmission has Qt and Win32-native GUI clients as an alternative to its GTK client.

I don't think Transmission is a good example.
That’s why there’s an excellent transit system. If you’re poor, nobody is giving you a car, insurance, parking, fuel, and maintenance for “fairness”.
Transmission uses Qt on Windows, either GTK or Qt on Linux, and something AppKit on macOS.
