If you want to see a world without fair use, check out the Japanese Wikipedia pages -- it's noticeably lacking in pictures and images than the English counterpart, likely because the latter was written by those in the U.S. It's especially ironic when there's more photos and images on the English language article for topics about Japan!

Exactly, this can definitely work under the right conditions and unlike the weekly hybrid model, you don't actually have to live 1-2 hours from where you work.
You should reevaluate this assumption. Japan is a famous, well known, and well studied counter example.
Japan doesn’t have an affordable housing issue. How is the police supposed to solve for this or any of your other problems anyway?

Unless you’re insinuating that because Japan is a low crime country it doesn’t need a police force?
Seems like amichlin is replying here too!
Based on my experience, you'll get problem when the data is somehow large, and at that point it'll be too hard of a problem to fix / optimize CMIIW. Use it for prototyping and migrate to your own backend, or make a driver compatible with google sheet api, to connect to sql.

I think many people are interested in a less aligned model.

I think people are also interested in a less silicon-valley aligned model, since it does get in the way. For example, Gemini gives a refusal for "please provide a list of common right leaning news orgs" and censors Fox News links, which is sometimes the only place you can find critical viewpoints of certain topics.

I have been surprised that environmental activists haven't protested return-to-office policies for the incident increase in pollution. Seems like there is very little data backing up RTO other than commercial real estate sunk costs, and loads of costs like lost time commuting, energy used to commute, emissions due to traffic, etc.

Defund the police isn’t an attempt to remove all police officers. The idea is to reduce their numbers so they have less time to ‘waste’ on trivial crimes.
Anyone using Django with HTMX? How are you writing UI tests for HTMX behaviour? The standard Django tests don't run JavaScript so what do you use for this and how is the performance?
I've used HTMX quite frequently recently for internal frontends (admin pages, reporting, etc.). It's quite good.

A pattern I've been using a lot is not changing the backend at all - each endpoint still returns the full page. Each hypermedia control makes liberal use of hx-select and hx-select-oob to update the elements that may have changed.

This isn't super efficient, but it provides some "locality of behavior" in that you can look at a hypermedia control and know what other elements might be changed by it. It also means the backend doesn't really need to "know" about HTMX.
Singapore is certainly an appealing model to a certain segment of the population. They have mandatory death penalty for drug traffickers. However, what most people don’t want to talk about is the robust social safety net that Singapore also has. In Singapore the police can arrest homeless people for sleeping on the streets. But they also have ample housing available for them. In San Francisco, there literally is no place for a homeless person but the streets. The waitlist can take months or years.

After decades of propaganda, far right media has convinced a large part of the American public that social welfare programs don’t work. Of course they did this after first defunding those social programs. So of course the only option left is punishment.

But if anything, the US “war on drugs” has only proven that punishment alone isn’t enough. Thankfully people are starting to wake up to that fact.
I had the reverse of this where I worked in-office all week, but spent the weekend in an entirely different city with my girlfriend. It was never meant to be a long term arrangement as I was staying with my family during the work-week, but it can work. It was a new job and I timed it well as 6 months after I started , COVID hit and everyone went remote.

> The perspective is seeing the law explicitly says said activity is unfair and illegal independent of whether one's ideology agrees said law is reasonable or should exist.

It still needs an explanation because at a surface level the crime and the name of the law have nothing to do with each other.

Until that explanation exists of how the law says it's illegal, I don't have the perspective of seeing the law explicitly say that!

I am not even in the realm of talking about whether the law makes sense.
Do executive feelings count as data
OpenAI and others seem to be focused on a brute force approach towards achieving AGI. Others, such as Yann LeCun, have advocated for intelligence that can build understanding of the world similar to how humans learn. This seems like an approach in that direction?

> I have sympathy for news publishers

Why? They are the most spoiled, privileged and entitled group out there. Not only did they force google, facebook, etc to give them preferential treatment in search/algorithm/etc, now they want google, facebook, etc to pay them for the 'privilege' of giving them preferential treatment. Not only do they want google/facebook to send users to their sites, they want google/facebook to pay them for that privilege. The shameless hubris.

> therefore directly tax the platforms and then redistribute the revenue to a fund created by government for news journalism themselves.

No. That's for authoritarian countries like britain and china.

> huge risks of unintended consequence

But government funded news has no risks?

What we need is to break up google/facebook/etc. We need competition in the search, smartphone, social media, etc space. The fundamental problem is that two companies control so much of american mindshare.

> I use a mouthwash with Flouride

Does anyone want to commit? Name a brand and why?

Most mouth wash seems to have fluoride and they don't say how much, but you also have a fluoride mouth rinse.

I just bought a fluoride mouth rinse that was Sodium Fluoride 0.2mg/mL (Equivalent to 220 PPM Fluoride ION) which matches this study - https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3525928/ - "the weekly use of 0.2% sodium fluoride mouthwash program has been successful in elementary schools of Tabriz"

How much is in normal mouth wash?
It doesn’t help that the knowledge in this industry is

2) are closely guarded “trade secrets” (job security!)
3) is in one of those “is more art than science” fields where the knowledge gained is hyperspecific
Two days for a hotfix, but by the time we saw the notice of this CVE, PaloAlto had already pushed a content update that automatically blocks this vulnerability (provided you have the vulnerability profile applied correctly).
If I were doing it today, I would add fiber along with copper. It is super thin and would fill in the cracks.

What I've found in places I've lived in the past is that most cables are not used. Some are used. And some are heavily used.

And every once in a while, things are moved around. Once I moved a server from inside to the garage. Once I did the opposite.

It is nice to be able to take the heavily used trunk and hook up the fiber pair, and use the copper for everything else... and no planning. And be able to change your mind.

Who uses the Start Menu? I click on that maybe once in a blue moon to maybe uninstall something. This is just another reason to start doing the Linux thing once this Win10 machine needs to be replaced. Ironically, the reason why I didn't get into Linux is because whatever it was that I installed long ago looked the same as Windows and it had a Start Menu (by a different name). Yeah, I guess I could have reconfigured or replaced the desktop manager but it wasn't worth the bother at the time. The calculus, however, is changing rapidly.
I'm reading. Thank you.

Unemployed for 6 months. Losing hope
I've had a pretty successful career until recently. I've worked at successful startups, and larger companies at a high capacity. Over my 10YOE no career gaps. This time around I'm having an extremely difficult job landing a job. Like when I apply I have a very high success rate of passing the recruiter screen, but always bomb the coding round. I'm at a loss for what to do anymore. Yes, I know "git gud" at LC, and just grind it. But, I've tried that for years, and it has never stuck. This time I only targeted companies that didn't have a DSA round, and still rejected for something super nitpicky. My interviewer literally laughed at me yesterday for needing to look up the docs. So like I feel like I need to try, but no idea where to start. This has made me so depressed. How do I get out of this situation?

> The whole thing could have been avoided if Google and social media stopped embedding previews and summaries everywhere.

This is so backwards. This is a terrible experience. Embedded summaries are great, they make everyone's life easier. If embedded summaries are killing journalism, then journalism is already dead.
I'm a little skeptical. I grabbed a small dataset and asked ChatGPT to create a linear regression equation and then did the same in excel. Perhaps they estimate values for beta differently, maybe ChatGPT is secretly a Bayesian, but the output I got was different. It was close, which I will say is impressive. Also, maybe I missed it, but I think it would be valuable to add to the prompt to provide the estimates for the parameters. It seemed as if they sort of just took the prediction values, computed MAE, and took the estimate for what it said. As I type this, I do wonder if you could use it to compute estimates for the parameters iteratively, average them, and essentially compute a bootstrapped estimate for the population parameters..
That's their problem, though.

The solution shouldn't the world where you can't say that newspaper X has published the article titled "Y".

It would've been courteous to offer it back to the donor, if they weren't equipped or willing to archive or distribute it. I'm guessing that's probably not standard practice, but surely it's common for people donate things to be archived because they're in some way important to the donor.
I think a service like this is incredibly prone to false-positives and abuse, especially if you’re going to try to flag subjective things such as throwing or smurfing.

It also seems like it could be damaging, and I’m skeptical of this the “proof” in all of these proof-based accusations of boosting I’m seeing on the site. If I can find the steam ID of the owner of the site, I know who my first totally-proof-based report of boosting will be against!
Wasn't this one of the reasons behind the Amazon walkouts
I think a lot of people are sleeping on Xai for two reasons - Twitter & Tesla FSD data.

I've seen numerous talks recently by Ai leaders discussing how the next level of LLMs have to "understand the physical world" (which tesla FSD is a leader in, see Elon's response to Sora - https://www.news18.com/tech/elon-musk-claims-tesla-has-been-...), along with Twitter being the "town square" of the internet giving them an immense advantage. I wouldn't be surprised if the Twitter API was completely cut off one day.

Looking at a player with all /////////// chars in their name. The evidence is a game they lost, in which they lost every clutch. Their k/d is not great. Aim metric looks to be maxed out, but I don't know the weight of that metric and most everyone in that match had near max aim stat.

> You can’t compare it with a 15” screen because …

We’re at the point where resolution isn’t particularly relevant. People want the same UI on a 1080p vs 4k 15” screen because mouse/touchscreen precision and eyesight doesn’t double when resolution doubles.

> Ribbon design has had the same minor spacing difference for 17 of those 27 years now.

In the Win98 days UI was designed for precision mouse movements not trackpads and touchscreens. That’s ultimately what changed Office’s approach, and people using high precision mice just get the short end of the stick here.

But web UI’s have taken this to an even worse extreme seemingly ramping up white space without considering why it was initially shifted.
But just think how beautiful it is.

Well, was.

It does literally everything you're asking for though? The data is also kept on-device. SNMP is there. Log aggregators and log forwarding are there. Rolling up to a centralized controller is there. The vendor data lake is just one more option.

To be clear, this is a VPN interface that has to handle incoming connection requests and traffic. Exploits are super common here. The command injection happens to only work when telemetry is also enabled, for reasons I haven't seen explained yet, but it could just as easily have been SNMP.

The article literally refers to the case for which Stockholm Syndrome is named and offers a simple explanation; that torture and privation work to align a person's goals and motivations to minimise pain.

I grew up with actual paper newspapers, and what I recall from that era is newspaper kiosks and stands that had front pages of dozens of newspapers, plastered over every available inch of space. People would come and stand by the kiosk and read them - for free - and sometimes, some of them would purchase something, but most did not. You could learn about most news that were, well, news-worthy without paying for anything.

So, what's different now?
My teenage cavities stopped after 1) eating less sugar, and 2) switching to a non-fluoride toothpaste. Now that I'm in my 30s, I have had no cavity issues thus far, but I do have a lot of chipped teeth. I should try fluoride toothpaste again, in order to see 1) if it was the lack of sugar that reduced my cavities, and 2) potentially strengthen my teeth.
In my country it's pretty common to remap and modify the ECU settings.

For €100 you can have someone remap the fuel injection system to give you more power for less fuel (VW are notorious for this, you can easily get 25% more power), or you can have environmental features disabled that will end up breaking such as EGR, DPF, AdBlue, etc.

Someone who does it is a friend of a friend, and he drives a Tesla, so I guess it's not a bad business to be in.

There's a very simple reason. Writing explicit abstract methods ensures that both the parent and its subclasses can still use "method_missing" without having to special-case the landmine¹.

> Ruby also provides inheritance hooks that could conceivably be used to detect the existence of methods at load time

This misses numerous corner cases e.g. refinements, or the dynamic include/prepend of modules (which may even be generated anonymous modules). One may not write such code often in applications, but this happens routinely in the guts of many frameworks and libraries, and not just Rails.

Most attempts to introduce type checking or anything resembling it into Ruby run into the wall of "load time is run time".

Something similar happened in the late 1990's when a PlayStation memory card was being sold with pre-loaded save data for a dating sim game (Tokimeki Memorial).

The real question is whether these journals were already scanned and archived or not.
The paper[1] goes into this in more depth. COVID was definitely a factor, but not the only one. For example if you look at the YOY comparisons, both halves of 2021 hadlower emissions YOY than 2020. The H1 decrease you can blame on the COVID lockdowns that lasted until May. But by July 2020 everyone who was going to WFH was WFH, and by July 2021 many people who were WFH in 2020 were commuting again.
