> Have you called someone who claimed to have a vax damage or who told you a relative died from the vax a „conspiracy theorist“ yet?

Not to her face, no. Not in those words, at least. But that’s because it would upset my mother to have to deal with her idiot conspiracy theorist sister complaining about me being rude, so I am scrupulously polite while dismissing all her crap and she is increasingly sensible about not mentioning it around me. Just as well I started this effort before covid happened or it might not have been enough.
Let alone stuff like buses. I think we've all had that moment when we got stuck behind a badly maintained diesel bus/truck that was spewing toxic black fumes behind it. I can't even image what folks with asthma do in those cases.
Oh my - that’s a really good point, and I should know better. It’s not like those distinctions don’t come up all the time when taking about public radio.
I think it is a matter of price: when EVs get cheap enough, then they will sell no matter lack of subsidies.

Same happened with windmills. For the first ~20 years they needed subsidies to get built, but today they are so cheap (per kWh) that capitalists invest in them without needing any subsidies.

With China going full speed into EV production, the prices will drop.

With charging stations springing up everywhere, range axiety is going away and this will enable EVs with smaller batteries, which will reduce price.
I am surprised this doesn't list two major resources for learning how caching works:

- https://www.mnot.net/cache_docs/ for a long time this was the best online resource

- https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Caching is extremely detailed, and based on the previous link too from what I can tell
I don't get what's wrong with charging more for SSO? They're in the business of making money, and if you need SSO and you need their service you're more likely to have money. It's nothing to do with the feature itself.
> But for everyone else it best to assume that getting COVID might reduce IQ if they are unlucky.

Why assume it if it's not proven yet? We had crazy assumptions on the way lightning worked, I'm glad we have empirical natural sciences now to counter these "wide spread assumptions".

Wrt covid and IQ. Say that during covid IQs measurably dropped: why says its not the WFH, the fear that was rampant or the mRNA vaccine that was massively injected? There for we need bigger studies, control groups, randomization. All of this is there for good reasons (and a lot of this was skipped in the development of mRNA vaccines for a bad reason: fear).
I think it might be related to food. Modern food, especially in the west, is so bad that most people are chronically malnourished, and that state may switch you into the hoarder attitude.

> Honestly no, because cuts to the IRS have clearly and blatantly been motivated by lobbying and the desire to make the IRS less effectual at tax collection.

The other side of this coin is that every time the IRS audits anyone, they have to incur significant uncompensated costs to deal with the audit even if they've done nothing wrong. Anyone subjected to this obviously and reasonably is not going to like it, and allowing the government to convert all of the efficiency gains from computerization into more staff to impose those costs on innocent people is not inherently the right thing to do.

> The vast majority of the contemporary debate revolves around the defunding of the IRS's legal team and their ability to hire external council, and the observed fact that they have been pursuing less and less tax cases over time against large companies in particular.

How many staff they have and who they target with those resources are two separate issues.

> the idea that computers simply means the cuts in IRS employees is "reasonable and expected" just ain't so.

If they had N employees doing audits and M employees doing clerical work, and now computers mean they only need 10% as many employees to do clerical work, it is completely reasonable to say that they should now be able to do the same work as before with 10% as many clerical employees because that is what happened.
sure looks like it.
Funny where talking about this: I have spent the last two weeks deep into Postgres roles. The whole system is, to say the least, convoluted. I think I need to write "Postgres roles for dummies"... because I feel like one.

Ldap would be a great fit. And go go read here: https://www.zytrax.com/books/ldap/ if you want a dive that you can wrap your head around.

Candidly I would NOT go for ldap or RBAC now. The two things I would try to bite off are shared ownership, and then revokable tokens at the table level. It's up to the token creator what permissions to give them (read/write), how long they should last, and if they want to just publish them or create one per "user".

Just a voice in support of Daniel here as this is a bit of a mischaracterisation.

He’s a really nice, gentle guy, who runs a small online community called Small Bets which I would characterise as the opposite of a “I will teach you to be rich” course. (I’m a satisfied paid member).

I don’t have an opinion on his tweet but both he and MKBHD are equally entitled to share their (strong) opinions on things.
How secure is Tailscale in general, and their new SSH offering?

I assume the crypto is unbreakable for outside parties that just sniff the traffic along the way.

But what if Tailscale gets hacked? Are my keys available there for someone else to connect into my network? How hard would it be for the hacker to add their own machine to my network?
It's been five months. Do we have enough data to make conclusions? Did the people who were going to buy an EV in February, buy ICEs instead? Could they just be saving for a little longer?
I haven't charged at home for nearly 2 years. It was not an issue.

Nonetheless, you can charge your EV on a normal powerplug. Should be very easy for home owners to charge at home.

No clue about the charging network in US, in EU its good enough.

Tesla is cheaper and more expensive in germany, it highly depends on what you use.

EVs show that batterie life is no real issue. Not a bigger concern than your engine block breaking.

Hybrids have horrible co2 values and CNG are very limited available while a plug is available nearly everywere. I have charged at hotels often enough now.

EV is a lot more fun to drive and its easy to save a lot if you have solar panels. I don't think it will top at 30% (what a random number).
EV are still to expensive for the common people. Right now the price for a small EV is comparable to an 3.5 ton ICE truck.
i did pure oxygen in a pressure chamber for about 4 weeks, it got significantly better after that, at least in my perception. Could be also just the time after the infection

The Australian states all have comprehensive medical records that have allowed people such as Prof. Fiona Stanley, an Australian epidemiologist to gain international recognition for their work teasing out relationships in many different medical disorders.

Access to fine grained records is limited to researchers for privacy reasons but the pool of researchers across the country is large enoug to rule out any conspiracy to keep secrets (unless someone is deep down a truther well).

Why Alcohol Is the Deadliest Drug
> C. We somehow need to come up with reasonable accommodation for the reality that teens have phones and budding sexualities and these two things are colliding horrifically in a legal and cultural system strongly rooted in assuming "child porn" is made solely by abusive adults and not willingly by underage teens who don't think it's a big deal at the time the photo is snapped.

It's not just the CSAM aspect, it's the whole idea that sex ed is grooming. It's like the difference between saying "you shouldn't have sex until you are a responsible adult" vs "I honestly don't recommend that you have sex at this age, but if you do, here's how to do it safely and responsibly".

Teaching kids "don't send naked pictures of yourself to other people" is one thing, but if they look around and see their peers sext with each other with no real repercussions, this warning will fall on deaf ears. They will file it next to "don't drink until you're 21".

On the other hand, if you start tailoring this message into something like, "sexting is a bad idea, don't do it, especially if you don't know the other person or don't trust them 100%; if you do sext, here's how to minimize the impact of cyberbullying or blackmail: ...", then people will loudly complain that schools are teaching their children how to sext.
Thank you! Very nice feedback, you're right. Changed it.
What gets me is how every minor quirk or fault of FF makes people, despite knowing of and ostensibly being against the chrome monopoly, throw their hands up and declare that they need to go back to chrome.
ETags are brilliant at reducing bandwidth and work especially well if the origin webserver is close to the client. Unfortunately, there isn't a lot it can do about round trip latency. Even if the payload resides on a proxy cache close to the client, that proxy cannot instantly answer 304 Not changed because it needs to revalidate its cache with its upstream as well (using If-None-Match).

So, serving a (relatively small) cvsbase Bay Area to Australia will still be slow unless you're willing to accept stale data (Ie. Cache-Control: max-age / Expires headers).

Tesla is also getting a lot of competition from cheaper competitors and the interest rates going up is putting people off large sticker prices and their models aren't getting refreshed at the rate of other brands.

I think both @concordDance and

It's not all subsidies even though subsidies did play a big part. It's good that governments gave those subsidies out, and this is the right time to end them. The future is bright.

Do you mean bikes?

Even assuming that you can inconvenience large, double digit percentages of the population to use bikes as transportation, other large, double digit percentages of the population will fight bike infrastructure tooth and nail because for them it's worth (statistically) killing some people rather than slightly inconveniencing them.

Let alone fighting the car and oil and gas lobby.

I say this as a bike fan. I think bikes will ultimately win out a large share of transportation in most countries, in urban areas, but will be a long tough fight and I think we'll be where I hope everyone would be (the Netherlands) right about when I die, in 30-40-50 years...

A vulnerability like this one sells for $1 mil.

At this point is cheaper to hire 5 full time programmers for a year to just introduce a vulnerability in an open-source project. Do it the old Google way - you work 80% of time on legit features and bug fixes to get credibility and in 20% of time you work on the backdoor.
I've noticed my memory and math skills getting worse as well. Can't say it's covid for sure though as there are other likely explanations too: getting fatter and out of shape, finishing uni and going out of practice, long-term sleep deprivation, etc.

Either way, if not covid, then I think at least the lockdowns did have an impact on my health and ability to stay fit.
America never did that because it would disrupt the careful allocation of health insurance to people with good jobs.

> Because it was significant, you keep recalling it regularly, maybe every week or so.

That's not how two year olds work. Even something as significant as losing a (or both) parents is still not significant enough to be recalled periodically, and we have many cases of that to support the hypothesis that "that's not how two year old brains work".

> I have a couple of such early memories which I believe survived through this recall mechanism.

I'm still skeptical. The first reason is that two year olds don't understand the concept of age in years (or age at all, TBH - they recognoise larger people and smaller poeple, but hafve no conept of age). The second reason is that the odds are very much against your hypothesis.

I have maybe ... two memories which I think were from age 2, but before age 3.

But I cannot determine if I was three or four at the time, instead of two. I cannot determine if they were real or a dream (because they are memories of an event of such non-significance[1] that no one else remembered).

I also cannot determine if they were not real and not a dream! I cannot tell if I "remember" them purely because when I was older my mum used to talk about the place they lived in when I was born, and with all the details, 6yo me simply interleaved actual facts with something my mind made up so that my made up memory is consistent with the facts I heard.

So, yeah, very skeptical when people tell me they can remember being two, because the odds are very much against it, and I say this as someone who has "memories" from 2yo, and I don't believe that those memories are, in fact, the memories of a 2yo me.

Not even a little bit.

[1] Memory #1: being taken to the bathroom one morning by an aunt who sometimes lived with us (and so babysat me quite often and would have done this quite often). I only have a memory of it happening once though, even though it must have happened at least a hundred times.

Memory #2: Looking at a patch of grass with a path that lead to the landlords house (also on same property, I was told when older).

With either of these, I can't be sure if I was 1, 2, 3 or 4 years old at the time. I also cannot tell if either was a dream, and if it was, was it a dream I had at 6yo, dreaming about being 2 yo or was it a dream I had when 2yo?
> This has been a really great webcam so far

That's your candidate for "worst ever"?
The turn around in narrative from the pseudo-Libertarian community is fucking hilarious to me. Remember when big government and their industrial cronies conspired to kill the electric car? Cars with a fraction of the range or performance of modern electric cars.

Electric vehicles are probably the best compromise between practically and freedom from government interference you can buy. Literally throw some solar panels on your roof and charge your car, as long as you've got enough energy coming in you can drive where you like within about a 100 mile radius (further away you'll need some grid support).
How often do you use that option?
Thoughts on Self-Help
There's many conditions that must be met to make cycling a good option.

Thie distance must be fairly short. You must be relatively young/fit/healthy/able-bodied. The weather must OK (not frequently too cold/hot/wet). The terrain must be fairly flat. The traffic conditions must be not-suicidal. There must secure bike storage at both ends. Ideally, shower/changing facilities at both ends for bad-weather days.
I look at the company Humane which has raised $230 million and I think, maybe some of the people who say we’re in a bubble have a point.

I have a ChatGPT pro subscription, I do machine learning professionally, and I am pretty bullish on the long term benefits of automating a lot of things we waste our time on now. But that is a lot of money for a company which doesn’t seem to deserve it. VCs should be putting money into AI research to build the next DeepMind.
This could all be solved if the OS vendors would add a 'share my childs screen' function to their operating systems. These incidents happen in isolation - make it possible for an adult to actually .. you know .. have oversight over their childrens online activities and it would be less dangerous.
I mean ministers and other head of states. Like is there any single reason why Biden has not already replaced the Presidential state car with BEV? Surely if it is good enough for voters it is good enough for him.
It was not an isolated incident. Gaddafi had it coming. And his regime too.
This is a chicken and egg problem.

How do you break the stranglehold of probably 30-50% of the economy being closely tied or part of oil and gas and the automotive industries?

"The market" might solve this problem in 200 years, when Earth would look like Mercury.
>It's been five months. Do we have enough data to make conclusions?

Car sales are up, EV sales are down. I can't think of an explanation which is more convincing.

>Could they just be saving for a little longer?

For what? I can't imagine anything which would turn me more off from buying an EV than saving for one and then being told I now need to pay thousands of Euros more. Surely every single person who was saving for one has now bought an ICE vehicle they can easily afford.

Of course many car sales are through financing and leases anyway.

Which Is More Dangerous: Alcohol or Drugs?
In my case, I would know roughly because some memories I have are from a certain house. My family moved to a different city before I was 3, so those memories can only be from 0-2 years of age.
Nonsense. EVs are expensive because of batteries, which have had R&D for a very long time.

An EV isn't magic, it is still a car, much of the car R&D still applies.
Electric cars are financially a lot of money up front for fairly minor savings long term. Which isn't so bad with interest rates in the 1-2% but with interest rates on car loans running around 8% it's a very difficult sell.
The first pillar is report truth.

> They didn't have a choice. Nuclear weapons require significant investments to keep them working.

They did have a choice. A choice between short-term prosperity and guaranteed long-term security. They chose prosperity because Russia didn't feel like a threat back in the early 1990s. Russia under Gorbachev and Yeltsin felt like the beginning of a democratic era for that country. The mood was extremely optimistic and hopeful.

The error Ukrainians made was tragic. They should have learned that historical patterns repeat. You do not want to be a country between Germany and Russia without a mutual defense treaty with a superpower (which I recognize that you noted in your post), or nukes.
I simply think the US should send old unwanted equipment and air defense weaponry to Ukraine. Not boots in the ground or anything even close to that.

Russia is ripping Ukraine apart because they don't have air defense missiles left.
