It works if you add "Think step by step," though.
The fact remains that it is entirely within the role of the court to overturn unconstitutional legislation, which the court does regularly.

The idea that the court would not give proper scrutiny to a legislative act -- one which may violate the first amendment, fifth amendment, and may amount to an illegal bill of attainder -- just because it had support from the senate, well, that's just preposterous.

it's the same thing. and you still have to manually sync to the exact same degree using these frameworks or not. state setting is part of the von neumann architecture itself so it appears directly in all programming languages you use. so the problem you say you're using them to solve isn't the problem.

that's not even true, but I hate to break it to you, but literally every generation of language involves handling events unless you get into constraint systems which, as I mention, are for people who dont want to use the greater capability of the underlying generation.

wish people would be honest.
it's obviously true that not every framework is trying to be avoidant about their lack of program skills. Some of them are actually useful. where I draw the line is forcing all of your application code to conform to a poorly thought out, half baked solution to reactive data flow, which doesn't even solve that particular problem and leaves you having to handle events anyway.

Thanks for the downvoted tho.
I think you're confusing what an OS provides with the concept of configuration maintenance, esp "plug and play." Or to make my point more clearly, all the configuration you listed still must be done for an OS by something outside the OS - ie the bootloader (GRUB, etc) or device manager or the like. An OS doesn't magically make configuration for different hardware unnecessary; indeed it doesn't even handle such configuration.

> ... and ran on naked hardware.

Not quite, drivers are still involved. An OS may load drivers, expose a facade for drivers, or even abstract whole layers of driver subroutines. But it isn't like it's a choice of either OS or bitbang the hardware.
The text of the bill literally mentioned "ByteDance Inc" and "TikTok" by name.

> We met as a teaching staff later that day. We saw the decimation of Lego-town as an opportunity to launch a critical evaluation of Legotown and the inequities of private ownership and hierarchical authority on which it was founded. Our intention was to promote a contrasting set of values: collectivity, collaboration, resource-sharing, and full democratic participation.

Communist nonsense. And the ultimate irony is that, just as in communist regimes, an ultimate authority simply removed all the goodies from "the people" so they could all be equal in their lack of legos.

Edit:

> hierarchical authority

Another thought about this: would these teachers have accepted a decision/outcome from the kids that was not some variation on the communal ownership model they eventually arrived at? I suspect not. Ultimately the kids were free to make decisions "democratically" as long as those decisions didn't threaten the power or ideology of the only real power in the room: the teachers.

An LLM should represent a reasonable middle of the political bell curve where Antifa is on the far left and Alt-Right is on the far right. That is what I meant by a neutral observer.

I believe the main draw of the MoE model is they don't all need to be in memory at once. They can be swapped based on context.

If you had enough memory it could all be loaded but it doesn't need to be.

> Much closer, arguably, to 0.1% or less of all legislation.

You're missing the giant flip side of that coin; that local, state, and Federal courts can all determine laws conflict with other laws or the Constitution, and do so regularly.

(For example: This never needed to go to SCOTUS. https://www.aclum.org/en/press-releases/states-highest-court...)

Things largely get to SCOTUS when there's disagreement between the courts. (https://www.law.cornell.edu/wex/circuit_split / https://www.law.cornell.edu/rules/supct/rule_10)

If your town passes a "no black people allowed after 10pm" law, it'll never get to SCOTUS, but it's still unconstitutional. The first level of courts it encounters will immediately overturn it.

(Two other notes: clearly unconstitutional laws tend to be a bit rare, because they're a bit embarassing when they get readily overturned. A significant portion - as much as 20% - of those 500 average bills is naming post offices; for example, https://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/house-bill/203. Much of the rest are similarly void of thorny constitutional questions.)

Many alternate solutions are far too complex, as they're trying to capture more enterprise customers.

That said, we do use still Google for Gmail and Drive.

Which is more robust/higher paying?
The sibling comment had it right, it's a Ryzen 7 1700X. The BIOS has been since updated to support fTPM, and that seems to enable upgrading other machines I have.

That Ryzen CPU launched in 2017, which means it existed 4 years before the newest Windows wasn't supported. Really, it's this time frame that surprised me.

What do we consider a modern kernel? Debian is still shipping a i386 port that should run on a Pentium II. It's old enough to order a beer at a restaurant.

"Nearly all x86-based (IA-32) processors still in use in personal computers are supported. This also includes 32-bit AMD and VIA (former Cyrix) processors, and processors like the Athlon XP and Intel P4 Xeon. However, Debian GNU/Linux bookworm will not run on 586 (Pentium) or earlier processors."
My experience from working in a 1,000 person tech organisation is that the hundreds or thousands of different affiliate programs, ad networks, and so on, provide simple user/password combinations. The solution before I discovered this was a Google Sheet that anybody in the organisation could use to login to the “company account”.

SSO also doesn’t solve the problem because that would mean each employee has a separate account, which may not be feasible for some companies that affiliate a single business to a single account.

They're related, but in a very specific way that does not meet the bar for "variation" in my opinion. As you described, counting sort is a very simple procedure that works well only on a very specific input domain. If another algorithm has "more logic" than counting sort itself in order to transform a very different input domain into a format that is suited for making many repeated calls to (a procedure that may be implemented as) counting sort, in a specific pattern, and appropriately coalescing the results of those calls, I think it is appropriate to let it have its own name. Would you prefer to refer to every possible utilization of counting as "that version of counting sort where...."?

I'm not entirely sure what you mean here at all. The EU seems to be doing basically nothing about malicious compliance. Apple's DMA 'compliance' is actively hostile and ensuring it's all but impossible for anybody to actually take advantage of the freedoms the DMA is supposed to mandate. This page [1] offers some of the fee schedules developers releasing on alternative marketplaces would face. If anything it'll just turn into another GDPR where they'll occasionally fine Apple some token amount (relative to their revenue), which Apple will drag on through the courts as long as possible, and ultimately just shrug and write off as a business cost.

“Wall thickness” (not width) decreases from bottom to top, which fits your comment of more weight towards the bottom.

Internode length increases up to the middle node (not sure if it’s also middle height), then decreases from mid-node to top.

Then internodes at the top are shorter and lighter.

I don’t know if the length pattern has some evolutionary advantage.

I share your bias, although until we find a better way to pair therapists and patients in other settings, I am accepting of the clinical setting. I have always been pro-legalization and I personally enjoy mushrooms, MDMA, and weaker psychoactive compounds -- but I've always had a rational skepticism of overpowered medical claims, especially when it comes to popular, politicized topics like medical applications of recreational drugs.

The data and results for MDMA-assisted clinical therapy have blown me away. For example, a 2020 study[0] measured outcomes 12 months after the final MDMA-assisted therapy session and nearly half the participants ceased lifelong suicidal ideation for the full year following treatment.

I was willing to easily believe that MDMA-assisted clinical therapy reduced symptoms of PTSD but I was worried that the benefits would wear off quickly; it wasn't until just the past few years we started measuring outcomes >3 months past the completion of MDMA interventions. Seeing these strong long-term effects in has really made me a believer that there's value in the clinicalization of psychedelics, even if other guided settings might have even stronger results.

Moving over to pure conjecture, I also believe that the submission of MDMA for FDA approval (which, if granted, will force the DEA to reschedule MDMA), has been used as a lever to pressure the DEA to move on rescheduling THC/marijuana -- I believe the timing is mainly because it would be embarrassing if MDMA were moved off Schedule I before marijuana was. Obviously the broad public support for rescheduling of marijuana is a necessary prerequisite, but I don't believe it's the trigger for the specific timing. I also believe part of the timing is to generate positive press close to a presidential election. But I would be very happy to see these both rescheduled, regardless of the reasons.

I also desperately want better access for Americans to get their drugs tested, so that we can more easily shift cultural norms towards getting in the habit of knowing their dose, purity, and contaminants before taking recreational, psychedelic, or pharmaceutical drugs.
