I was building on what the comment i replied to said. The concept of "more democratic" is kind of strange. So i comment on things that have elements of democracy.

My first question merely pointed out that the process that exists, with a public comment period etc, is in some ways more democratic than congress passing laws. That is - this is a place where the rulemaking is more inclusive of the public than some having some trash that got themselves elected passing laws on behalf of people they don't actually talk to or consult about those laws.

The second is actually a statement about how it's shockingly responsble for the selfish idiots that get themselves into congress to have somewhat knowledgable, focused people do the work instead of just randomly passing laws based on their twitter feed.

The end of the process initated by executive order in 2021 is happening this year, yes. I've seen people I like and dislike wield that power. Witha ll of them I've agreed with some of the policies they had and disagreed with others. I'm comfortable with it happening generally, but i wish congress would be a little more involved and representative of the people when they set up those powers and issue the directional laws that these people administer. That is not an issue with methodology though, just political opinion about the specific policies.
That, and some just don’t vote
Martin personally gave me a tour of the factories back in 2002. I got to see first hand things being made from parts. I overheard him pitching an idea to an engineer, and then a year later seeing the product reviewed in QST. I still use the clock he gave me.
While that is philosophically true, but this thread is illustrating why that isn't a helpful perspective . Consider a media organisation has a bias towards accurate reporting with a view to helping readers achieve the best outcome for themselves and good outcomes for society. We could correctly call such an organisation "slanted", but it is missing the point that there some slants are privileged by virtue of leading the reader to act in a reasonable and rational manner while others don't.

I'm not sure if the US - or the world - has any of those. But the generic "there is a slant" point is useless. What matters is what the slant leads people to do, what information the slant is omitting and whether said slant is a good one on balance. If calling a media organisations "slanted" doesn't imply "slanted [in a way I think is potentially bad and relevant]" then the word is useless and shouldn't be used.

My statistics teacher in high school once told me, "No one remembers their best game of poker, but everyone has a bad beat story." I suspect something similar is true for the author and their friends. Most people make many, many compounding mistakes over the course of their life. If the author's circle of acquaintances are in a place where one or two different choices are all it would take for them to live their best lives, then it's fair to assume that they're already near the upper end of the bell curve.
Sadly no. The school has been pretty lax with personal information. Staff is also expected to use their personal devices for internal communication because they don't want to pay give all the teachers' aids laptops. It's pretty common for everyone to access their email on their personal phones.
mmm actually no.

money laundering - the federal crime - relies, absolutely relies on their being an illicit origin. it cannot be charged independently and relies on discovering there was an illicit origin and moving to prosecute that.

think harder about it and successful money laundering is impossible to be convicted of as an illicit origin is never discovered and probable cause is never established to get the subpoenas.

seems that nobody ever imagined that the jury convicts someone on the money laundering charge and the judge acquits on the illicit origin charge amongst others. this does seem to require an appeal to rectify and everyone agrees he has a big chance of this getting dropped on appeal too, since its just dangling disconnected from its requirements.

the other things you’re talking about would be prosecuted under different laws.

Interesting stuff. We use MemoryDB as the underlying service for BullMQ, a NodeJS queue that’s built on top of Redis. We trade off a bit of speed and cost (MemoryDB costs more than Elasticache) for persistence and BullMQ’s many features, which is a good tradeoff for most apps.

I personally like the legal and regulated approach, specifically because it comes with routine worker testing and consumer protections and labor rights

apparently sex workers like decriminalized, because non-compliance with the regulated regimes have so far been a parallel illegal system

but I cant think of any industry we would listen to who answered “how about just a completely hands off decriminalized approach” if asked to choose between illegal, unregulated, legal and regulated

I don’t think decriminalized comes with adequate consumer protection, and the problems with legalized systems can be addressed by fixing how non-compliance is penalized, and by providing incentives to join the regulated system instead of just penalties for not

regarding trafficking, well keep prosecuting that. as labor trafficking. make more avenues of support for the laborer which is far easier with labor rights. what people find hardest to reconcile is the idea of giving up on preventing trafficking, nothing they support right now is doing that or capable of doing that while burdening everyone else.
Mildly interesting that the author runs a media relations company in SF.

I don't think there's an explicit to large integers, other than memory? Just the benchmark needs to pick a size, and 1_262_000 digits is used for the benchmark.

And Erlang/OTP follows a pattern of not setting limits on things unless needed, but not necessarily being well optimized at large sizes. Big integers have been there forever? with no explicit size limit, but pretty slow for the last several decades.

Well, for one thing, Ubuntu 24.04 got to be the first big Debian-based release after 64-bit time_t migration, and they got rid of backwards-compatible package names early. I suppose removing hundreds of libraries, including heavily dependent on, to install them from new packages (with `t64`) in proper order can cause a lot of problems on non-trivial configurations.

Existing binary code should work (unless it interfaces with 32-bit code in some affected way), but external packages need to include new dependencies.

> its growth is a reflection of increasing population and Internet penetration

Considering the explicit link their growth opportunity to internet penetration (as does Facebook), I would say its a very strong reflection.
So the Internet before 2016 wasn’t popular because it had net neutrality? That’s definitely a new one. Is that you Pai?
No. That is incorrect and makes assumptions not present.

The DOM is a language agnostic tree model in memory. The DOM, or any node therein, is accessed via the DOM’s API. Accessing a single node in JavaScript generates a node object. That node object is an artifact in JavaScript language representing the DOM node at the moment of access.

A DOM node is a living mutable thing, but the JavaScript object representing that node is not. It’s a static object in JavaScript language. That is also why a node list is not an array.

The DOM is not an artifact of JavaScript. I can understand how this is confusing if you have never operated without a framework, but otherwise it’s really straightforward.

This is one of the reasons I abandoned my JavaScript career. Nobody knows what the DOM is, which is their only compile target, and yet everyone wants to an expert.

Discover TailwindCSS Templates: A Personal Journey and Resource Collection
As a budding frontend developer, I've faced many challenges in crafting visually appealing user interfaces. There were times when I admired captivating designs yet struggled to grasp how professionals achieved such elegance. Little did I know, my world was about to change upon discovering TailwindCSS – a utility-first CSS framework that opened doors to countless possibilities.

My fascination grew as I explored various TailwindCSS templates, including ShadcnUI, NextUI, DaisyUI, LangUI, and numerous others. These resources inspired me to create a platform dedicated to collecting these gems – https://tailwind.best. My goal was simple: curate a one-stop destination for finding high-quality TailwindCSS templates and help fellow developers save valuable time.

At present, my site offers a basic version, featuring an ever-growing collection of templates. Soon, I plan to expand by adding more tailwindcss-related content and welcoming submissions from like-minded creators. By doing so, I aspire to foster a thriving community centered around shared interests and continuous learning.

Join me in embracing the power of TailwindCSS templates! Explore the potential and contribute to our growing library at https://tailwind.best. Together, let us revolutionize UI development and make stunning websites accessible to everyone.
Currently there is very little information available online on GQL, the SIGMOID paper 'Graph Pattern Matching in GQL and SQL/PGQ' linked in the article is a great intro to the topic [1]. The authoritative source is the ISO spec [2] but it is paywalled. In short, GQL ISO is inspired by the following query languages and has the aim to standardize graph querying:

- SPARQL: A query language for RDF data, developed for semantic web by W3C. [3]

- PGQL: Property Graph Query Language developed by Oracle [4]

- Cypher: Neo4j's query language designed for its graph database. [5]

- openCypher: An open-source initiative to make the Cypher available beyond Neo4j database. [6]

- GSQL: TigerGraph's graph query language, SQL-like syntax for graph querying. [7]

- SQL/ PGQ: Another subproject of the SQL standard group introducing graph queries inside SELECT statements. Superseded by GQL (chapter SQL/PGQ Property Graph Query in [8])

Yes that is just the "FCC FACT SHEET" as it says in the top title of the document. It is not the actual rule/action. It is also the exact same link that the poster just above me already gave.
It's also interesting to see cultural differences here (partly coming from the respective languages themselves):

• In English, rhyming/versification is relatively limited, and (so?) rhyme is dismissed as for less-serious poetry/“doggerel”, and the reactions to this article are along the lines of seeing rhyming information as low-quality, and the memorability of verse as a problem,

• From experience with Sanskrit which lends itself very well to versification (both the nature of the language itself, and the nature of education which emphasized facility with language), and “serious” works are in metrical verse, I tend more to see this memorability of verse as an underutilized useful tool rather than a problem. (My father, teaching within an education system that requires students to memorize lists and reproduce them in the exam, used to compose rhyming verses for his students to remember e.g. points of law like the definition of a breach-of-contract: I imagine both he and several of his students still remember several of those from decades ago.)

There's a lot of interest on HN in things like spaced repetition; I would have imagined “make a memorable verse out of it” would be in a similar category but cultural/linguistic barriers seem to prevent it.
Holy moly! That explains why I frequently get captcha when using residential internet in Jakarta. I don't see those captcha when accessing from e.g. Kuala Lumpur or Singapore.
