The point I’m making is that what’s barbaric to you and I is not barbaric in another society and vice-versa. The American culture of kicking your children out of home the day they turn 18 is more barbaric to some than the death penalty, as is a child choosing not to contribute to their family.

Many citizens of Singapore are very happy as citizens of Singapore, many of them look at the west as barbaric: the crime ridden cities of the U.S, the poverty, the abject failure of western governments to protect their citizens despite very high tax rates… if killing a few criminals is the price to pay to live in a comparable utopia, so be it? What’s barbaric about a caning? The U.S. sentences people to death!

I am from the west (despite your assertion, I live in a Muslim country) and believe in very western ideals, I believe in freedom for the individual, it’s deeply ingrained in me, however, my non-academic experience has shown me that this is not a universal truth. Many cultures do not care for the individual, they care for the family, a group of people bound by blood to be one part of the whole. Many cultures believe that sacrificing oneself for the family is noble and right and that to be an individual is to be barbaric.

Once you accept that individual freedom is a western ideal, and not fundamental to the human condition, it becomes much easier to understand that other cultures are fundamentally different.
Generally very few people care, unless it’s "an impact metric" tied to that team. Or there is a "performance sprint" or something. "DX" has been more important than "UX" in the current mainstream JS community for a while. To give an example: babel, that enabled syntactic sugar, also caused many versions of runtime implementations of various ES6+ syntax to end up in bundles, or polyfills for browsers the clients aren’t actually using etc.

You can read more about the things that are absolutely mainstream and are problems in very popular libraries in the "Speeding Up JavaScript" series from Marvin
Hagemeister – like this one https://marvinh.dev/blog/speeding-up-javascript-ecosystem-pa...

Also, most devs are testing on powerful devices, and there is a big disconnect between their experiences and that of their users – https://infrequently.org/2021/03/the-performance-inequality-...

I guess that's what the article meant here: "This particular Pi doesn't have a real-time clock. The very newest ones (5B) do, but you have to actually buy a battery and connect it. "
A little off topic but does TrueNAS Scale require an Enterprise SSD for the OS drive? IIRC TrueNAS Scale runs Kubernetes under the hood. I'm curious if a regular consumer SSD would be quickly destroyed by the frequent random writes needed for K8s/etcd?

Repetitive movements of tiny muscles that were never designed to do that kind of movements in the last millions of years of evolution and suddenly have to handle it hours per day.

I could imagine a number of them even ending up in the trash. My wife's family threw away most of their mother's odd collections because (a) they didn't have the space for it and (2) nobody knew how to take care of them because she wouldn't let anyone touch them.
In the extreme scenario where you want to run arbitrary untrusted code on arbitrary machines, that would be useful, but wasm isn’t a solution for that.

If I need to specifically support how certain languages compile to wasm (meaning I don’t support arbitrary wasm) then what’s the point?

It’s just Java applets again.
Something else I'm wondering is if a /donate route with outlinks is too much friction? I can't imagine it would be? Just because frankly my biggest hesitation with diversifying is I want to maintain minimalism and not have links to 10 different platforms.
Brave wrote in 2021 that they had plans to verify the CID. Not sure if they have added that or not yet.

But either way, I run Brave with a local IPFS gateway on my laptop. So I think when it said that it could retrieve those files via IPFS for me, it meant in my case that those files would be retrieved from actual IPFS and not via a public IPFS gateway hosted on the web

The more important question is if it is worth it, since money spent is zero sum.
Its weird that people work OK without knowing exactly what time it is. Sure it helps us but if a person lost track of the date for a few days in a city they would still be able to perform basic functions. We only have had timekeeping devices for a tiny part of our history but we invented alot of stuff without precise synchrony.
Solar panels are already cheaper than wood, which is amazing.
Well, I had sources yesterday but I didn't save them. Today all I can find is that the alcohol industry is a little bigger, but not 30x (maybe closer to 20%). I'm not sure why there is so much disparity in these kinds of figures. Every source I can find today still seems to indicate the meat industry is at least somewhat smaller, though.

Yes, though there's also another reason:

c) Safety, being open about the flightpaths of tankers and intelligence-gathering aircraft flying in international airspace near those areas reduces the ability of Russia to claim they weren't informed or that the aircraft strayed into restricted airspace. That means a lower probability of incidents, though it's still not completely safe as demonstrated in 2022: https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-66798508

Have you tried annotating the lyrics with stuff like (hook), (chorus), e.t.c.
I've used chatgpt to generate the lyrics for a random word, while giving it some artist names to draw inspiration from and suno manages to put in most of the appropriate musical characteristic of the annotated segments. Most notably (chorus) and outro (outro) in this example: https://suno.com/song/23e1d6de-569c-4c19-9551-cfda8e1bcd5a
No.

With no top speed, accelerate for 85km at 1m/s then decelerate for the next 85km/s at 1m/s and that's about 13 minutes with a top speed of about 900mph. 1m/s is the top acceleration you can have for a typical passenger train for comfort purposes.

Total area of a 170km*200m city is 34 square km, or a city about 6.5km across.

London's Elizabeth line (crossrail) covers a distance of 6.75km from Paddington to Liverpool Street in 11 minutes, with 3 intermediate stops.

The circumference of a 6.5km diameter city would be 20km. 20 cross-city lines with decent headway and interchange would give a worst case journey of

- 250m to nearest station - 3 minutes walk

- 2 minute wait for train

- 5 minutes to central station

- 200m/3 minutes to appropiate platform

- 2 minute wait for train

- 5 minutes to destination station

- 200m/3 minutes to destination

25 minutes. From anywhere to anywhere.
Where in the GDPR do you find this 'some time'?

AFAIK, and I might be wrong here, you do have the right to be forgotten - art 17. But there is no need to periodically renew consent. As long as the period for consent is understood and is relatable for the reason of the consent, it can be basically for ever. In this case, that period seems to be 'until he withdraws his consent' and that seems fine by my reading of the GDPR.

I’ve been to Lodz myself probably a dozen times. The city is oriented around the main long street. The street itself is probably the main tourist attraction, as well.

You can’t tell what it is on a map because you wouldn’t expect a pedestrianized street to be 100m wide. But I assure you, it is the busiest street and has the most foot traffic and commercial activity.

This argument is such a waste of time. I’ve been there, you’ve spent five minutes looking at Google maps. I brought it up as an example of a city designed around a straight line. Which it is.

Go waste someone else’s time.
Micron Technology Inc., a leading memory chip manufacturer, has announced that the aftermath of the April 3 earthquake in Taiwan could decrease its dynamic random access memory (DRAM) production by up to a mid-single digit percentage in a calendar quarter.
Do you blame only one person for the popularization of national socialism in Germany (nazism)? Because one person couldn't pull it off. A large group of people did this. The fact that one person from this group was born in Austria, but lived in Germany since his early 20's, changes nothing.

It's like saying that Stalin (who also wasn't Russian) was the only person responsible for the horrors of communism, but in reality, there were lots of like-minded people near him.
Wow, but what does it mean?
Oh. Sure. That will always be so cumbersome we don't have to worry about it. That would be a huge RO system. They don't have a lot of throughput so you'd need a big storage tank or a very large set of filters and a pump I'd think. I'm not at all concerned whole home RO will every be common.
Except to say, poorly I suppose since the point didn't come across, Get Used To It.

This is nothing new, your examples are great ones too, the benefits we got are, lots more art for everybody. To take the side of the composer/performer/artist is natural I suppose, but that's such a tiny fraction of humanity. To ignore the clear and positive upside, even claim it doesn't exist, is disingenuous?

To criticise AI music for being the same as human music, is a curious thing to say if one doesn't want to distinguish the two somehow? I missed that point entirely I guess. I don't know why that sentence was there at all then.

> It outlines an enrollment process by which I would signal to a WKD service that I have a key that I want to enroll into the process. The only problem is I never did that, or at least certainly can't remember doing that. I'm certainly not hosting a page with any key verification stuff.

The post includes the above statement that this person never took the steps required for following the standard Proton states they are following. This communicates to me that Proton is not following any standard. This is something publicly visible and on a grander level fairly simple to discover compared to other issues related to E2E encryption. I don't trust Proton or really any organization to manage E2E for email, and among the biggest issues is that email just seems like the wrong tool for the job.

Another issue I have with encrypted email is what to do about spam. If the server can't inspect the contents of the message, the probability of a "success" on the part of the spammer is significantly higher. Public keys can be published for addresses that have very high limitations (e.g., 1KB size limit, strict mail policy standards enforcement, whitelists, etc.). How Proton plans to deal with this an average person, I have no idea, but I imagine a lot of people will be scammed in their discovery process.
Book Review: Practical Julia
I think it’s good to be clear headed and acknowledge empirical evidence when it’s there. Context is useful in understanding the mechanisms of society!

“This thing goes against my orthodoxy therefore I refuse to see it” is exactly the sort of attitude that gets you far away from success.

For the record, I was merely saying it’s possible for a state owned enterprise to do things quickly, even if in practice most of them don’t. So much of the world is just about having the right kind of people at the right place, and that’s true in the public sphere and the private one.
“Your lack of planning is not my emergency”
I do that, with a local GSP-synced Pi. Very cheap and easy to set up with IPv4 at least.

That said, if you don't trust the DHCP server because some evil actor might give you the wrong time, why should you trust the NTP server it tells you about?
As an outsider, what's the appeal of PeSC? The paper says they are less efficient and harder to manufacture, but also that they are the "next generation".

I tried udio a bit yesterday and found it produces clearer audio but the music it produces isn't nearly as good as suno. At least to my ear.
This is honestly kinda glorious, a company that seems to want to use AI as every other word to get as many investors to give them money as possible shoehorns AI with a reputation for hallucination into an expensive device that isn't even close to the promise if what it could do.

That just screams a culmination of the last couple of years of "AI" and I am kinda loving that this happened.

Maybe, just maybe, Investors will finally realize that this isn't as magical of tech as the companies like to claim and can't be shoved into every single thing hoping for magical results.

'Just not eat prawns' is barely more than social action theatre. That's a point too. "I'm silently protesting something" is no protest at all. In fact, it is damaging the innocent for infinitesimal gain (the supply chain, the grocer, your own food variety).

You want to seize on a cause, go ahead. That would entail work, doing research, sending letters, something! That I could get behind; in fact, as I suggest, many of us are doing something every day. And maybe get a little weary of the warriors who respect gestures over substance.

Ya, that's my take too. Continuing R&D on alternatives like perovskite might open up new use cases. Like using transparent solar cells as windows. It's worth investigating.

Bonus, it keeps scientists employed, maintaining our capacity.
the same way that water towers work - when the pumps are running (power is on), you pump water into the tower; then, when the pumps fail, gravity continues to provide water pressure as water drains from the tower. The water tower effectively acts as a "battery" in the system, storing energy (and water) and then releasing it as needed
Fair enough.

I remain convinced, struggling to complain about the quality of the song in unflattering terms is vacuous commenting. I wonder why people want to do that at all.

For my part, I've had exactly the opposite experience. Without SSR or equivalent, you often have to wait weeks for your content to be indexed on Google, and the quality of the results varies. I'm talking about sites of at least several hundred/thousand pages.
What are they marketing?
The video mostly just reads the following article out loud: https://graphite.dev/blog/why-facebook-doesnt-use-git - go read that instead. It's also more balanced and doesn't attempt at simplistic explanations of "monorepo - good" and other topics.

Also, this video makes it seem as if Facebook, and its wants and contributions are the center of everything. Open source developers don't need to start working whenever any user messages them on performance issues, especially if it's an outlier in the grand scheme of things.

EDIT:

Reading the article more thoroughly:

> What they [Facebook's investigating team on which source control to use] found was a system [i.e, Mercurial] that was easy to extend and a community of maintainers who were impressively welcoming to aggressive changes by the Facebook team.

So Mercurial, as a smaller and more nimble developer group, was just more open to substantial outside changes to its code base.
Hoping you see this ...
