Easy. They’re losing the Gaza war. Yemen’s blockade and full militarization is crushing Israel’s economy. Bibi is out of a job and possibly his freedom if war stops.

Time for a trump card: escalation of the conflict will keep the extremists happy and keep the hostilities going for possibly years. Bibi’s best choice.

For the duration of their incarceration, why is there an expectation that those incarcerated have a right to vote anyway. Of course there are people who are in prison who shouldn't be and there are those not in prison who should be (including many politicians).

In a relatively ideal (of course there is none) world, those who have basically abused the citizens of an area should not have a say in the politics of that area that then affect the citizens of that area.

Once those incarcerated have paid their dues and served their time, they become eligible to partake again as citizens and should have the same voting rights as anyone else.
It means instead of the philosophy prevalent in the JS world of bringing everything in as a dependency by yourself, the library attempts to provide sensible default solutions for you.

The equation changes when you wish to optimise for removal of arsenic from the rice. Essentially to do that you want to pre-soak the rice and then boil it in excessive water, throwing it all away. It's tricky to get the rice cooked perfectly but it is possible.

Different areas of growing have different arsenic levels, but it's very tricky to work out whether a batch of rice is likely to be high arsenic or not (we do both - try to source from a low arsenic region and cook the arsenic out).

Excerpt from The Hollow Men by T.S. Eliot[0].

I'll have to add it to the page, but it was also used as the introduction for The Compound by S.A. Bodeen[1]. It's an interesting young adult novel about a family living underground in a state of the art bomb shelter after a nuclear attack occurs.

> There was a fanaticism that's hard to grapple with philosophically, a thing that's far outside rationality, a magical thinking. How much more "magical" can you get than disregarding natural physical laws, and substituting your own? That's the definition of magic.

People now deny climate change, often because it's 'liberal' - think of the incredible consequences of climate change, far greater than the disregarded physics, and yet it's ignored. It's the same with vaccines - people are causing their kids to become sick and sometimes die. It applies to many more things these days - anything 'liberal' is automatically rejected, regardless of cost.
Well, everything you say is quite surprising to me. But thanks for sharing your perspective. I've certainly never heard most of these points before.

It's pretty clear that Israel is stretching the extent it can take its conscripts to. Otherwise they wouldn't be debating drafting haredis (at great political risk). They wouldn't be pulling out of Gaza. Allies and the upper brass themselves wouldn't be saying the conscript army needs rest. And you wouldn't be seeing the big, news-making mistakes the conscript army is making after 6 months of urban warfare.

The idea that a war against Iran would be easy is, quite frankly bonkers. It sounds like something Netanyahu would say to everyone's groans and disappointment. It sounds like Putin's hubris before he invaded Ukraine...

>Some believe it would be best to attack the head of the snake.

This reads like it's not serious about the practicalities of war. It honestly reads like Hamas propaganda talking about how they're going to directly kill Netanyahu when such a move is realistically impossible for them.
I think it is a utilitarian argument - if its true that someone will inevitably commit the crime then the fact that I commit the crime is victimless or at least had no additional victims than there would have been without my action.

To say that a victimless crime is wrong requires a more deontological approach to morality.

There is something nostalgic about these old Google documents. It reminds me of when search ads were on the right side.

Google is famous for only supporting a few general languages. Initially it was just C++, Python, Java, and Javascript (browser only!), although a few more eventually trickled in. The language deviants kept writing "official" style guides and adding support to random infrastructure and libraries, hoping that one day the next major project might get written in OCaml. New Googlers often had a confusing moment after learning the restrictive language policy when they compiled their first program and blaze would print that it was generating protocol buffer bindings for Haskell (this would eventually be suppressed).
Kate has good code integration these days, but it depends on the language. Might not be great for some languages.

> which tbh isn't fair to the doctors and lawyer who also suffer from the disease

Even if that's the case, I think framing it as "Engineer's Disease" is pretty critical for HN, which at times can become a literal orgy of it.

Also, SV culture amplifies Engineer's Disease into a destructive force only rivaled by its counterpart in finance. Doctors and lawyers who suffer from something similar are far more limited in their effects.
This is fantastic. I was obsessed with Descent and played with my friend over our... 14.4 Kbps modems (along with Warcraft II). When Descent II came out, I would go to Best Buy to play it on a demo machine. I remember how amazed I was at the missilecam. That absolutely blew my mind.

I don't think I ever really played 3, watching the trailer. But I _did_ make the jump to Volition's Descent: Freespace. THAT game was the first one where I made the concerted effort to save up, as a 9th grader, for an NVidia Riva TNT after seeing my friend's, and how awesome the particle rendering was in it. If only I just, you know, dumped a few hundred bucks into $NVDA at the time instead.

But man, these games were so great.
As someone who also bounced off it initially - I would recommend getting through the tutorial area and flying out somewhere in the ship before you put it down for good. Once I started going out there and visiting places, it really grabbed me. The more stuff you scan and read, the more intrigued it made me, and eventually I couldn't stop until I'd unraveled every story thread and mystery the game had to offer.

A backend + NextJS is somewhat what you are suggesting. Backend serves json/graphQL. Frontend server is responsible for rendering, caching, templates etc. Prerendered HTML in backend will overlap the roles, so not sure if that is used.
Usually people are talking about the 60s-80s when sharing these stories since that’s what grandparent/parent generations remember. USSR did experience significant growth at least at the beginning of this period and most of that theft/embezzlement was certainly committed to later sell/exchange those goods for profit (e.g. working at coffee shops was were lucrative since you could just reuse the same ground coffee for 5+ cups and steal the rest).
Using the word “reestablish” in that way would be the confusing and odd considering the multiple other word choices that would be far more precise.
> “As their routers fail, it would literally then be impossible for data to be routed into North Korea,” Ali says, describing the result as “effectively a total internet outage affecting the country.” (P4x notes that while his attacks at times disrupted all websites hosted in the country and access from abroad to any other internet services hosted there, they didn’t cut off North Koreans’ outbound access to the rest of the internet.)

If second part is true then it does not seem productive, sadly.

I've just watched a documentary on Netflix, "Three Identical Strangers" (SPOILER ALERT), about a 1960's to 1980's study about identical twins/triplets separated at birth and who grew up in intentionally distinct conditions (of the triplets, one grew up in a blue collar family, one in middle class, and one in a upper class family, all with an older sibling in the family as a sort of "control").

Apparently, the study ran for decades, but the results were never published... it's unclear why but it seems plausible to me that, aside from the ethical concerns, the study came to uncomfortable conclusions about the polemic "nature VS nurture" debate. Initially, they show how all siblings in the study, despite the intentionally very different environments, all came to like and do the exact same things... but later in the documentary, it also shows there were differences enough that the similarities were only superficial (in what I can't see as anything other than trying to appease the "nurture" crowd - as there seems to be no justification for that, as much as I tried to find it in what was shown).

The documentary also mentions the study may even actually have been about the influence of different parenting styles on the children, or even about mental illness, given many of the participants in the study had biological parents who may have been mentally ill (who the hell would give up their children if they didn't have some serious mental issues?!), which again seems to point at trying to divert from the study findings in my opinion.

The documentary is a little sensationalistic as it tries to outrage the viewers instead of trying to understand the actual circumstances of the study (siblings were always separated at birth at the time in most adoption agencies, apparently, that was not the fault of the study), which is a pity but understandable as that makes for better entertainment which is what Netflix really needs for its viewers to be happy, but still it's well worth a watch.

These articles talk a little bit about the controversies:

the architecture is really simple. The buffer contigously stores a list of "blocks". Each block contains a small number of actual text lines (usually 64-128). Thus if you edit a line, we only need to update the block containing the line. Once a block grows bigger than a certain number of lines, we split it into two.
> Well, your intention is certainly a binary for/against this idea. You're being extremely pedantic and persistent about saying essentially "It's not as bad as you think". Well, it actually is as bad as I think, and I have been thinking about it almost daily for like 4 years now.

I'm not trying to minimize inflation. I'm saying that there are two numbers here that are not the same. If the impact was worse than the actual inflation number, I'd be saying that too.

Saying that two numbers are different is the exact opposite of reducing things to a binary. I'm arguing for a more complex analysis.

> You're wrong to count other things besides currency as money. Inflation stats are specifically about currency.

Please answer this question then:

Do you truly think the complaint I responded to was about the literal money that person held from 2020 until 2024, and nothing else? They weren't complaining about their income rising slower than inflation, their income was completely unrelated, they were only concerned with the loss from the exact amount of cash and bank balance they had during that time period? If inflation paused today, they were not complaining about any ongoing loss of purchase ability, just the one-time loss from the literal money they had?

If your answer is yes, then we've been talking past each other pretty badly.

But I really don't think that's what they meant. I think they were complaining about their own purchasing power in an overall sense.

> There are too many individual circumstances to account for to come up with a statistic like that

Has anyone tried? I think you could get some good graphs out of it. I agree that it shouldn't be reduced to a single percentage.

> What is the goal of these "better" stats which dodge the root of the problem for a majority of people

My only goal is to avoid overly simplistic numbers. And I don't see how what I'm saying "dodges the root of the problem". Inflation is still the primary factor!
I will have to look up actual numbers, but with 30 patients a day this is 25€x30x5x4=15000 a month pre everything. You take out taxes, costs, everything they need to pay in full and I guess the salary will not be very different from IT.

EDIT: I just looked up some numbers and you are right, MDs get about 5000€ net pour month in average, which is higher than IT
> No, actually the Holocaust, meaning the actual mass killing of Jews, didn't start until 1941, about the time Hitler attacked Russia.

Hitler attacking the Jews started before 1941, and I used Holocaust as a one-word description of all the Hitler attacks on the Jews. E.g., Google says that Kristallnacht was 11/9/1938.
This really just feels like fearmongering because this is a threat to big pharma. I mean, several commonly prescribed antidepressants have black box warnings about increased risk of suicide. When they trialed Prozac on people with no history of mental illness, someone committed suicide out of the blue. Fairly certain someone could cobble together a much more compelling meta analysis about even worse adverse effects of psych meds on similar populations, but due to NAMI and big pharma I think there's pressure not to draw those lines too clearly.

I think there's a clear bias in cases of big pharma approved meds to jump to "Oh, it wasn't the medication, the condition just worsened" and with psychedelics/weed to jump to "The substance use is causing this". Even when there is proof of RX medication worsening mental health conditions, it's common to have these relationships straight up denied by the prescribing doctor.

This isn't to say that there isn't a similar relationship in psychedelics, but it feels really disingenuous to me to be mentioning this outside of the wider context of psychiatric meds which somehow get a free pass for causing a much wider and dangerous range of side effects. If psychedelics cause less harm than commonly prescribed drugs in the same population, isn't that a good thing? We should understand these harms, but the bias of Big Pharma needs to be taken out of the picture.
Yes I think so. You can use it in a service worker too
You need to use it as your primary OS and learn by doing.

Start on the basis that you shouldnt have to download something to do what you need, it all comes pre-installed and go from there.

Need to process some text files? Use awk & sed etc
Need to partition and format a drive? use fdisk, parted etc
Need to encrypt a drive / folder - use LUKS

Everything you need is on the system itself including the files to run tests on, the rest of it will come with normal usage.
With a rice cooker, you're supposed to use the measuring cups for the rice, not the water. You add water based on the markings on the bowl.

IIRC, rice cookers essentially use the extra water to implement a timer. They have a thermostat that trips based on the temperature rise that happens when the free water is absorbed or boiled off, and the levels are setup so that happens when the rice is done cooking.

How can this give consistent results? The ratio of water to rice will be different depending on the pot size and the quantity of rice. If it’s assuming “the right size of pot” you need to specify how deep the rice is as well.

2 cups water to 1 cup rice seems a lot easier and more flexible. To cook a bit more rice, use a bigger cup.
Im the last to deny that the U.S. does have poverty pockets that can sometimes bee entire lagoons, but you can't fairly compare it to most of the world's third world countries in all but the most extreme, relatively isolated examples.

Truly, go live in a developing country, even one that's considered decently wealthy by the standards of developing countries (Mexico is a good example) and you'll see the difference very quickly if you leave any of the compact, wealthy, tourist-oriented bubbles of society.

I live in such a country and comparing it to the U.S. as a whole is absurd. Even most of poor America is absurdly wealthy and reasonably well run by the standards of much of the world, though as your example shows, exceptions do apply, though they're not always by forced circumstance so much as unconscious choice.

You somehow managed to put this into the wrong context, but yes, automated warfare is prone to vulnerabilities.
