No, they complain to the politicians. Then they have to decide whether or not they beat the shit out of people with police or grant their wish. Protests are not about gaining allies, they are strictly about disruption.
> The bit about peaceful protest being more successful than violent ones is misleading.

I haven't read the full article but my impression halfway thru was that it wasn't just a bit about _nonviolent_ protest (which I wouldn't say is the same as _peaceful_ protest), but rather that is the whole premise of the article.

Some people, e.g., Gandhi and MLK Jr, did not go for violence after peaceful negotiations failed, while others at the same time _believed_ such negotiations had failed. But just because someone feels hopeless and believes such negotiations have failed doesn't mean they actually have.
You don't need aero bars to have you arms forward and narrow. It's not particularly safe, but doable for a while.

The aero bar question (whether to have them or not) comes down to how long you will spend drafting and climbing. It's a more interesting decisions in Olympics and triathlons than most road bike racing (the latter it makes no sense because people are drafting as much as possible).
Music and lyrics have an interesting history because of copyright. There were a lot of historic cases where lyrics were added to instrumental tunes, to collect royalties on them, sometimes without the knowledge of the composer.

The right to protest ends once it interferes with others' freedoms.
Ionide, The F# language server, is excellent.

I use F# in .NET Interactive Jupyter notebooks daily at work and it works quite well.

The community around the language is very helpful and the Discord is great for all sorts of issues ranging from beginner to advanced.

I love the Fable compiler which targets JS, TS, Python and Rust and makes for a wonderful way to share a domain design across multiple code bases.
I have personally been involved in a few planning and “traffic engineering” issues where I live. And although this comment is heavy on the sarcasm it is very reflective of my experience.

As a whole planning departments seem unable to defend decisions with relevant data and instead rely on indefensibly old manuals and standards. Some of which themselves use indefensible statistics- particularly traffic manuals (lets plan our roads based on a survey of a similar road in Atlanta in 1994!). Or worse municipalities follow each other in circles and trends.

This would all be fine if the downstream effects weren’t affecting investment with a floor of tens of millions dollars.

Arcan is one such effort, but I am not sure what state the project is in.
But I still need to have the gui app installed correctly with opengl/hardware acceleration enabled , right?

My problem isn’t with inconsistent development environments. I have trouble spinning up the IntelliJ ide locally. Thus the need for something more lightweight.

Also I have used this in the past and the experience wasn’t the greatest. Tried with a dev server with gateway hosted within intranet. Used an m1 Mac as thin client.

Issues with syncing state of client. Significant input lag in a large project. I remember trying to refactor a method in a 500K+ LoC and the UI would hang.

Syncing plugins was also an issue at the time.

I suspect these issues would likely be exacerbated over internet with tailscale

Yep I'm sure I can speak for all of the $100M-fund work out of your home office types. Or at least > 99%. The Venn overlap between "content with promising people you'll make money for them believably", "too cheap to spend on office / marketing because your fake pitch was so good nobody will need it to feel comfortable", "enough executive function to make believable calls on believable companies while doing no sourcing work" and "$2mm for three years until people catch on, but def don't send me to prison" is absolutely zero or very close to it.

Most who run a fund like this do not think of it as low pressure or cushy, regardless of goals. Something I tell my portco CEOs a lot is that as much as they want to raise money, or need money for their company, in general, VCs they are talking to need to write checks even more. Just not bad checks.
I don't agree with them and I don't think it's very nice, but anti-abortion protestors can and do scream at people walking into clinics or imply they're working with the clinic and hand out misleading brochures and "gifts." That's their right.

Sometimes they break the law by blocking doors or shoving people (or worse) and get arrested. That's their right too.

Sometimes they break the law and don't get arrested because local law enforcement is sympathetic to their cause. That is a problem. Otherwise, sure, they can protest in ways that inconvenience people.
To me the noise was 10% of the problem. Who wants to breathe in what lies on the ground? Just lick it instead.
Not any more, not with police and other government super-powers designed to squash opinions other than the official one.

If the US government and police had the overly abusing powers and trickery they have today back during the protests against Jim Crow and Civil Rights, Voting Rights for minorities (and women) NONE of that would have happened no matter how many people threw themselves on the fire in sacrifice.

Just look at how some states shutdown campus protests this year as easily as forbidding any sitting or eating and police happily arrested people using chairs.

What do you think is going to happen in those states when people have to sit down or eat in line while waiting to vote in November?

Look how hard it is for unions to exist anymore in the USA

China rewrites its history and reality right down to its own maps, no protest will ever overcome that, not this century, not next given even better technology to control its people. Same for North Korea and Iran.
Thanks for sharing your blogpost-level understanding of philosophy, while completely ignoring the fact that Putin has already said exactly what he is doing: trying to rebuild and even grow the Russian Empire. He has explicitly said this multiple times, and he even likens himself to Peter the Great. Land bridges to Crimea aren't an objective, they are merely strategic checkpoints in his long term goal of taking over as much of the world as he can.

And yes, he absolutely is the type of person who would destroy something if he can't have it. He did it with Grozny, he did it with Mariupol, he did it with Bucha, he did it with Bakhmut, he did it with Avdiyivka, and he will continue doing it with the rest of the world. So far, he has sent hundreds of thousands of Russians to their death, and they continue to do it. There are literally thousands of Russians that know they're gonna die, and they do it anyway. Your belief in the humanity of people running nuclear bunkers is already betrayed by their own actions in every conflict under Putin's watch, and somehow you think 100% (because it only takes one person!) out of the 3000+ nuclear silo operators will suddenly grow a conscience when Putin tells them to send the missile. It's fucking absurd.

You aren’t entitled to break the law, steal from others, hold them hostage on highways, etc just because your view is not popular. That’s what illegal protests / riots are - people who are so entitled that they think they’re allowed to do whatever they want until they get their way. That’s not acceptable in a civil society and they should face harsh consequences for it.

I've been using neovide for a few months now, and my biggest gripe is that there's not an easy way to automagically open a new file in an existing neovide window as a tab. With macvim I could do `--remote-tab-silent` and it was handled, but neovide seems to want me to use some kind of background server and a bunch of other hoops to jump through.

I can relate to this a lot; even though I don't have any hearing loss, I tend to struggle to process lyrics as "words" in real time to the point that when I look up the lyrics to songs I've listened to my whole life, I'll sometimes be surprised with lines I had never understood before. I first discovered this high school when in Spanish class we'd sometimes be given a sheet of lyrics with some missing words and try to fill them in from listening to the song a couple of times (usually as a non-graded activity that would give a few bonus points on the next test if you got it perfect). I found it virtually impossible despite consistently testing quite high even in the portions of exams where we had to listen to audio and answer questions about it, which made me realize that it had less to do with it being a language I lacked full fluency in and more about the fact that it was singing rather than speaking.

On the other hand, I've learned to play several instruments over the years and have a fairly easy time learning songs by ear, so I suspect that part of the issue is that I find it impossible not to focus on the musical parts of singing rather than the linguistic part; if I'm focused on the pitch, rhythm, and tone of the vocals, it's conceivable that it could explain why it's lot harder for me to recognize individual words. It's occurred to me that the reverse issue could also help explain why I've had to put in effort over the years to build up social skills around non-direct communication; a lot of times when someone says one thing but means another, the intent is conveyed in things like rhythm and tone, and I likely find it harder to pick up on those cues due to my entire focus being devoted to understanding the words themselves being spoken rather than how they're being spoken.

In my opinion, the Lindy Effect[0] makes a lot of sense in scenarios like this.

> the work of more than 30 academics from U.S. universities and Meta researchers

At least, one can appreciate that Meta is trying to understand the potential negative effects of their system and act on it. Social networks are here to stay in one form or another, it makes sense to understand how to regulate them rather than just hoping they wouldn't exist.
What in the world could possibly be negative about school kids walking out of school in protest for two or three days? The 'tone policing' of other people's direct action is so tiresome.
Why? I'm sure they're less practical than the gas powered ones, but every tool system with their own battery standard seems to have one.

This is called freedom. If you have difficulty with others expressing their freedom, you don’t believe in it. And I say that as someone who thinks that anti abortion protesters are among the stupidest fucking people in North America.

When people say "fake news" it means different things to different people. "Hunter Biden's laptop is a Russian plant" was considered the truth and anything to the contrary "fake news". It wasn't just a mistake, it was a hard lie.

Having any single entity determine what is "fake" and what is "real" is incredibly dangerous. We can't even agree if 72F degrees is the correct room temperature - let alone complex things like abortion or if fat is bad for you.

To have any authority say one side is correct fails to understand how the structures of scientific revolution work. Much more likely they do understand and are using "Science(TM)" to force ideological agendas.

> William Langewiesche's article analyzing the June 2009 crash of Air France flight 447 comes to this conclusion: “We are locked into a spiral in which poor human performance begets automation, which worsens human performance, which begets increasing automation” (www.vanityfair.com/news/business/2014/10/air-france-flight-447-crash).

> Langewiesche's rewording of these laws is that “the effect of automation is to reduce the cockpit workload when the workload is low and to increase it when the workload is high” and that “once you put pilots on automation, their manual abilities degrade and their flight-path awareness is dulled: flying becomes a monitoring task, an abstraction on a screen, a mind-numbing wait for the next hotel.”
Yep, that's it. A lot of links to other blog posts on older posts are broken, but you can usually change the "blogsdev" subdomain to "blogs" and it'll work.
The protest itself may not be about gaining allies, but protests depend on being able to gain allies if those in charge meet them with enough force to stop them.

If protests go too far, to the point where the general public will cheer for anyone putting the protesters in jail for a decade, the protest is going to be ineffective.

This is a very interesting point, especially when you look at human connectivity over the past 100 years relative to the connectivity seen over the whole of our existence. If anything, your experience is somewhat of a "return to the norm" in some kind of sense. I often wonder if we've swung the pendulum too far with regards to hyper-connectivity.

Interesting food for thought.

You said "proven" and now you're saying "[not] so far fetched." I still think it's far fetched, but I'm satisfied that you aren't claiming proof anymore.
For one, correlation is not causation.

For another, these numbers ("3.5% of the whole population", "53% of the time compared to 26% for the violent protests") all seems incredibly precise for something as messy as real world protests. Estimating participation, estimating population, estimating "peak engagement - so many components of this are judgement calls at best. And that is before even attempting to engage with cultural and temporal factors. To make such a bold and outlandish claim based on such shaky data feels fraught.
