> Taking your morals from an authority directly is itself immoral, as they don't have a foundation of human rights or empathy but rather are based on arbitrary ancient writing of arbitrary ancient writers.

Where do you think should morals come from? A more precise question would be "where does human morality arise from?" Or even more fundamental, "why is it wrong to do one thing and not another?".

Given what you've said about religion and moral authority, I am genuinely curious to know your answers to these questions.
> That is a global effect.

Yes, I agree, that's why I said it is the only one. Moreover the sole purpose of cargo install is to cause that side effect (otherwise you use cargo build, which builds the binaries but doesn't copy them to a shared directory).

> I’m absolutely certain build.rs can also do this

build.rs is running arbitrary code, it can do anything, that's part of what I disclaimed in my asterix. In practice it doesn't do anything. Every packaging system has an escape hatch like this.

Serde shipping a binary was someone embedding a chunk of opaque bytes in their "source code", it's completely unrelated to this discussion and has no effect on what `cargo install` does.
> _all_ of them were in the negative between $400 and $800.

Explain to them that they not have just lost an avarage $600 of their live-time earnings, but over $70,000, if they had invested the money in the stock market for retirement. If we assume that the avarage S&P 500 return with dividends reinvested is somewhat above 10%, as it was in the past, investing $600 now would yield them over $70,000 for their retirement in 50 years. The real value must be adjusted somewhat due to taxes and inflation. But in addition, investing in the stock market provides one with some sort of an inflation insurance for free.

Ah the hubris. I can't check the original paper because the DOI is missing (and I don't have time to go searching).

But my takeaway is they are avoiding protein targeting altogether. Typical vaccines for something like SARS will target the SARS spike protein which looks a bit like a rose on a stem. The stem is the part that sits in the body of the SARS itself, while the rose petals are the bit that your immune system actually can see. As a result, the rose petals mutate quite frequently, meaning that your immune system is constantly chasing a moving target. Whereas the stem can't mutate nearly as easily without breaking and making the virus ineffective.

This is a common viral strategy. Viruses coat the parts that they can't mutate due to their structure-function importance with parts they can mutate easily because they are mostly just decoration. That way, your immune system only sees the easily changed decoration.

Rather than target the proteins with antibodies, they are not worry about the virus entering the cell, and are instead targeting the viral genomes by making complementary RNA molecules (i.e. the inverse of the viruses ssRNA genome). This means that when the virus unwraps its genome in your cell, this vaccine will immediately bind to the genome and prevent it from being read/replicated.

This isn't completely novel, your body already does this naturally, but viruses typically have pieces that will prevent your body's natural response from working. They must have found a way around that. Also, they must have solved the delivery mechanism somehow? RNA is notoriously unstable and doesn't usually make a suitable vaccine for that reason, although recent mRNA vaccines have also solved this problem I guess. It's not clear if it's an mRNA vaccine that produces the iRNA, or if they're delivering the iRNA directly.
I don't know about UK law, but my understanding of the law around here is:

For custody issues, absent extreme circumstances, custody cases don't end until at least the child turns 18. Getting an unfavorable settlement here is a problem, but likely isn't unrecoverable. Typically a judge won't modify a custody arrangement without a change of circumstance; but they do have considerable discretion.

For the financial issues; this is what lawsuits are for. If her law firm does not make her whole on their own, she should hire a legal malpractice attorney who will probably be able to convince them.
Using ClickHouse to count unique users at scale
Well, not quiet. At the end of the day, the value that it would provide is a comparison. The links would be to Amazon affiliate program, i.e. I am indifferent which product you end up buying.

The end result would be a website that provides a comparison similar to how this spreadsheet does it for Omega 3 supplement https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1vQcLEAPk5lcg-4YR_dwD...

This is to say that ads and sponsored listings would play little role in something that effectively allows to compare supplements based on their ingredients.

I have no doubt that it would be useful to some people... My bigger concern is if there is a business here worth pursuing.
Not exactly cheap to run (would require a lot of manual input and/or AI). Not a lot of defensibility (could be scraped by someone).

The author of this article clearly knows a lot about the subject, but I think this would have been better titled "Low Latency Trading isn't Going To The Cloud and Here's Why". Or to put it a different way, infra peeps within exchanges have a very specialized skill set and priorities. General cloud infra peeps don't. No shade, but there's always going to be some business that doesn't make sense to switch to the standardized solution.

> when you currently pressing the pedal the top can come off. Then when you don't want to press the pedal anymore, it gets stuck

That is still very dangerous. Tesla stopped deliveries because it's a big deal.

In some cases you could have literally an arm's length to stop before you kill someone (like just as you back out of a driveway) and the car accelerating even half a second more than you wanted is too much.

I cannot stress enough, this car has high power and extreme torque. It goes from 0-60mph in 2.6s. Even under normal acceleration it will eat quite a bit of extra distance while you react to press the brake. One pedal driving would have braked the moment you took your foot off the accelerator. Normal driving would have at least stopped accelerating. The reason a lot of Tesla drivers were punching through walls and blaming it on the car was because of the stronger than expected acceleration. If that can catch people by surprise, imagine unintended strong acceleration.

You are needlessly finding excuses for something very dangerous.
Sad to see this project die. I wonder if hydraulics aren't the way to go for humanoids? Has the power density of electric motor actuation caught up for dynamic locomotion?
I'm sure those are all factors but don't you think that the thousands of miles of jungle also places a factor?
I think games that do this simply don't survive the test of nostalgia. As a child I remember the 90s being full of bad games and bad music topping the charts, but these days, people would praise 90s music and gaming.

Sorta yes, sorta no.

You're certainly right that with a macbook you get a whole computer, so you're getting more for your money. And it's a luxury high-end computer too!

But personally, I've never seen anyone step directly from not-even-having-a-PC to buying a 4090 for $1800. Folks that aren't technically inclined by and large stick with hosted models like ChatGPT.

More common in my experience is for technical folks with, say, an 8GB GPU to experiment with local ML, decide they're interested in it, then step up to a 4090 or something.
I bet that most of these design decisions were made by the same Chinese manufacturers that design the cheap stuff we buy on eBay.
And when China inevitably starts producing a cheaper tesla alternative they will go looking for a spy like they were not the ones who designed it in the first place...
The subtitle of that book irritates me. Science is a methodology for learning, not a thing that can "try" anything. But ignoring that minor linguistic nitpick, the only thing it's "trying to do away with" is ignorance.

Science is not trying to do away with anything else, soul or otherwise.
I have seen a lot of dumb legal takes, usually by non-lawyers and non-judges.

But this is so very dumb.
Speculative. A possible alternative approach is to not mock and antagonize them at massive scale but rather listen to their concerns, and address them non-rhetorically.

"But they threw the first punch" is a rather reasonable response, but unfortunately we have to play the hand we've been dealt, not the one we'd like to have been dealt.

Did you know, anti-vaxxers are not the only humans who are not perfectly rational? Try to imagine a scenario where it is you on the other side of the rationality table, but cannot realize it (as is the case with anti-vaxx/etc buffoons).

Everyone is doing their best, but hardly anyone is trying their hardest.

Here's the timeline of misguided Vox articles.

There's some references to Berkeley health officers posting the kind of thing I mean, but they deleted it.

Soon after, of course, everyone would switch to "it's real and it's here" and instead start giving out irrelevant health advice about handwashing because the CDC was biased towards treating everything like a food poisoning case.

Any such IDE needs a way to communicate with the services that are going to enforce the permissions. The DSL is a good way to do this. It allows inspection, diffing, and access by other tools, instead of being locked away in some hidden IDE binary structures.

Edit: But no IDEs will yet have any graphical tool to assist in rule development and checking. So the fact that one is provided, is better than it not existing at all. But you can always edit the DSL manually, if need be. They explicitly state that their rules-editor can sometimes be limited:

"The Rules Workbench, a visual rules editor that you can use to model most of these patterns"
It was probably from my workloads being relatively small that I could get away with 90Hz read on the cpu side. I'll need to dig deeper into it. The metrics I was seeing were showing 200-300 microseconds of GPU time for physics calculations and within the same frame the cpu reading from that buffer. Maybe I'm wrong, need to test more.
Every digital document needs to be encoded somehow, and that encoding is going to be a function of supoorted features.

If you're saying that we've reached a point of maturity in everyday digital paperwork documents that we can formally standardize some and move away from vendor innovation, you may be right, but the transition is a matter of timing and discussion because of the tradeoffs involved when that happens, not a rhetorical principle.
Feels like you're a couple decades behind. Single core speeds haven't gone up much in the last decade, especially for "server" CPU models.

That kind of scroll is OK-ish for a background parallax effect, or maybe some pretty fade-in/out effects while elements scroll into view (without changing their relative position in the page).

When it interferes with the main functionality of the page, namely reading the content, they break accessibility, distract over understanding the difficult topic, make the content brittle against changes in the platform (different browsers or future standard updates), and as others pointed out make it difficult or impossible to use alternative presentations.

With most comments commenting on the presentation and not on the content, I think it makes clear that it detracts from the experience more than helps.
I disagree that the security is a side benefit. It’s why most people choose to use parameterized queries.

So if you have Neuralink (or anything similar that gets released in the future) you can be convicted of thoughtcrimes and that's a-ok?

What exactly is "on you" in this scenario? In your world is someone with Neuralink allowed to take their brain images and use that as an outline for a sketch they're drawing or you're not allowed to think of anyone naked ever again?

If you’re going to work with weather data use a columnar database, like BigQuery. If you set things up right your performance will generally be a few seconds for aggregation queries. I setup a data platform like this at my previous company and we were able to vastly outperform our competitors and at a much lower cost.

The great thing about this data is it is generally append only, unless errors are found in earlier data sets. But it’s something that usually only happens once a year if at all.

Its been a while since I read about it but there is some theorizing on the split halves of the brain and the corpus callosum that connects the two halves.

One theory is that the connection between the two halves is a recent evolution and that people used to and some still do perceive the other half of their brain as a separate entity that communicates with them. Possibly being due to the corpus callosum not being the same in everyone. The greater theory being that this is basically the root of all religion.
That's exactly the reason why Microsoft documents have an open standard, they were essentially forced to do that.

This is just an assumption that generally, computers are doing what they're supposed to. It doesn't mean that you can't challenge it with evidence. With the amount of evidence being submitted being increasingly digital, I'm sure the intention behind this is to stop people from jamming up the courts by calling every single digital artefact into question.
>> Good god, people, we measure knowledge all the time with testing.

In humans. Not in machines.

You're proposing to use a test of human knowledge as a test of computer knowledge, when the question in the first place is whether a computer can have knowledge at all. It's like giving an IQ test to a frog and concluding that the frog has no IQ because it can't answer the questions, only reversed: the machine answers the questions, therefore it has knowledge. Who cares about mechanisms, who cares how the answers are generated, if I see answers, that's knowledge.

Well that is a pre-scientific way to look at the world. I observe the sun, it looks like it's moving around the Earth, therefore the sun turns around the Earth. No room left for critical inquiry or understanding of the cause of phenomena. We have a test? Bash it against anything and we'll get some answers, and then we'll claim that they're the right answers because that's the right test, since it gave us the right answers. And all that, not for some mysterious physical phenomenon that we're not responsible for, but for a machine, created and programmed by humans, and we know exactly how.

No no. That's not good engineering, and it's not good science: it doesn't explain the how, and it doesn't explain the why.
If the successful commercial product is based on the research of someone else, why does building a commercial product that succeeds entitle you to the innovations of others?

From what I remember, turning up the heat is an attempt by your body to kill off the virus. This is a natural response, not a genetic mistake.

Our sinuses have shrunk and or airways collapsed far too quickly for evolution to adapt, leaving us highly susceptible to allergies and inflammation. This makes the likelihood of catching a cold or flu much worse. It also makes the healing process longer.

- rockets/missiles being delivered to terrorists in the region to target Israel

- rockets and cruise missiles targeting Strait of Hormuz up to sinking tankers (Rubymar)

- military hijacking ships (last one MSC Aries three days ago) and stealing its cargo (oil pumped from at least one tanker)

Yes, and it is so much worse. We have very few actual choices for major services and are forced into business with them because life without these services is next to impossible.

Think about the tax code as an example. We literally have to buy software or pay a professional to decipher the madness. It's by design in order to keep all these people and companies profitable!

Or shrinkflation. Is selling a candy bar that is half the size of the packaging yet the same cost as it was before they shrank the product fraud or is it just smart business?

"simulated CSAM" is a strange term - "CSAM" itself could be read as a dysphemism of CP whose purpose is less to emphasize the heinous nature of the abuse involved, and more to defend "ordinary" pornography as licit by putting a semantic distance between it and child porn. But of course if it is simulated, there is no abuse going on so the term becomes meaningless.
My guess is that a lawsuit would follow and whomever messed up would be on the hook for any losses between what the final divorce settlement was and what it most likely would have been had it been properly negotiated, plus any emotional damages coming from misapplied parenting rights agreements and the like.

If this was in America, depending on the couple's total wealth and circumstances it could run into the several hundred thousand / low millions.

This seems to be just a marketing name. You could equally call plastic cups "polymer cups".
You could make fake bucking bars, commonly used in metalworking. The whole point of them is to be small enough to fit in your hand but dense enough to backstop a rivet gun, so they are very heavy for their size. Perfect form factor for gold bars, too.
