You do nothing. Which is why all of hand-wringing around this ICC decision is for pointless. There is no such thing as "international law" in any practical sense.

£18k/year as a junior programmer in London in 2014? I was underpaid as a junior at £16k/year in London (fintech) in 2004, and we were paying junior developers in the high twenties in 2015 in the public sector. You were definitely being seriously underpaid.
Again, people using the word “sneaking”, are you sure you know what that word means? It makes absolutely 0 sense in this context.

To work in tech and not have a surface level understanding of LLMs and the biggest player in the field, OpenAI is borderline incompetence in my book. You don’t need to be using it, you don’t need to like it, but you should be aware of it.

All of that is off topic though, there are countless settings in iTerm2 that I don’t use or don’t need, I don’t go complaining online about them or call them “sneaky”. The level of entitlement in these comments astounds me.

> stuff like this is entirely unexpected in a terminal application

Why? Because you wouldn’t use it? Should we remove tmux support because not everyone uses it? And who are you to say what should or shouldn’t be in a terminal? I think a “Google this line/error” or “search SO for this error” would be completely valid ____optional____ features for a terminal to have.

> It's fine though, I will simply go terminal shopping again.

You forgot to mention that the coup attempt was by some Western powers and Fatah, against a democratically elected Hamas government, where western powers supplied weapons, intelligence, incentives and training for a coup. They just lost.

> Hamas threw some 100 PA members off the top of the buildings

Also you should support this, because this seems 1) ridiculous given the total number of casualties and nature of the fighting 2) I can only find claim of 2 persons being thrown off building, 1 from Fatah and 1 from Hamas.

Eg. hundred page report from PCHR named "Report on Bloody Fighting in the Gaza Strip from 7 to 14 June 2007" doesn't mention 100 PA thrown off the rooftops.

Sentiment analysis did that for me. I ran Watson on some challenging emails and worked to remove tones of anger and contempt. After a couple of times, I internalised it.
The tragedy of a people who often experience racism being perpetrators of it always shocks me. The difficulty the majority of human beings have differentiating people who look like my enemy, from my enemy, is really impossible for me to understand. Targeting every part of a group in this way rather than as individuals based on the content of their character is something that is still a pipe dream :-(

For one thing, that is only documentation of Israeli building, not a statement of what law is being broken.

For another, that document specifically mentions that the new buildings are in Area C, which has been recinded by the PA (for purpose of discussion, the details are far more complicated than that).

Re Arms sells:

Your point here about selling to non-problematic countries is really moot. As shown, the US does 40% of arms trade by revenue and counts over 100 countries as their client. They are selling to everyone that pays. They also never have claimed to have anything like a "responsible selling of weapons" policy.

Re holodomor and the great leap forward:

These disasters were caused by the attempts of the SU and China to industrialise rapidly. As such, a somewhat more reasonable comparison would be to compare it to the death and disaster caused by the US industrialisation, which I again suspect will outnumber the rest given the much longer timeframe.

Comparing holodomor and the great leap forward with say the US treatment of Unit 731, slave trade, the multitudes of war waged directly or the decade long direct support of murderous gangs throughout the Americas doesn't make any sense, since the death of the deaths of holodomor/glf were not the intended outcomes (I'm not excusing the actors here as I think absent of intent is not sufficient to omit blame) compared with the plentiful examples of US wars, policies and actions where deaths were absolutely the intended outcomes. Let's remember Albright reminding us "that we think it is worth it".

Putting something in a completely different context is absolutely minimising the crimes.
I feel like I must be missing some obvious thing because I simply don’t feel the need for a generator. Otherwise, why are whole-home generators so wildly popular, including so-called “solar generators” that are just batteries with crazy expensive solar panels and a convenient plug. And now this EV whole home generator concept taking off after the Ford F-150 Lightning made it well known.

But I’ve survived multi-day power outages with nothing more than some flashlights, a camping stove and a camping heater. The cost of replacing my frozen foods is negligible compared to the cost of generators.

What am I missing? Obviously some edge cases like CPAP, O2 concentrators, and other health things. But I have to imagine that is a small portion of the population compared to who’s buying these things.

Calling LLMs a “grift of the week” takes a certain level of obtuseness. LLMs provide value _today_, even if they never got better than what we currently have, or even the open source/weights models we have, they would still be useful. Period.

To compare it to crypto is just silly. Yes they both are over hyped and use GPUs/power but that’s about where the similarities end. Real people (not just techbros speed-running why we have regulations in finance) get value from LLMs today, not some mythical “one day we will all use bitcoin”-bullshit.
My guess is you buy it from Tibco. It sounds like it is part of their enterprise R distribution.

Do you have reason to believe it is open-source/free ?
Probably wouldn't fly for a work laptop, but I've been setting up Windows VMs recently using the "AtlasOS" thing and it seems to strip out all of the MS crap properly:

But do we really want to encourage people to build fame, rather than build things that have value?

> International laws aren’t real, there is no international government, international police or international armed forces

What you are expressing here is essentially a variant of the philosophy known as "legal realism" – laws only exist to the extent they are enforced, so a law lacking a sufficiently effective enforcement mechanism isn't really a law at all.

However, that perspective was rarely heard prior to the 20th century. Historically, international law grew out of the work of early modern European scholars such Grotius. Many of them (Grotius included) were natural law theorists – they saw the law of nations as grounded in human nature, and ultimately established by God. In those days, much of Europe – even in the purely domestic sphere – was still governed by customary law: laws evolved due to custom, whose content was never entirely clear, and which were never perfectly enforced. The continental legal tradition was founded on ancient Roman law, which continued to be studied as a kind of abstract intellectual system in universities long after it had ceased to be enforced in practice – however, rather than an exercise without any practical relevance, lawyers and judges would apply its provisions to every day cases, but only when they could get away with doing so – an attempt whenever they could to impose some neat Roman order on the anarchic mess of royal decrees and Germanic pagan custom. Against that historical background, the idea of international law without any clear lawgiver or law-enforcer made much more sense than it does to you.
I imagine legally would need a lawsuit to set a precedence, and if a license owner sets an over-reaching precedence of what a wrapper is, they risk losing customer trust and companies avoiding them like the plague.

e.g. timescaledb going after a tsdb as a service company offering tsdb behind a graphql wrapper vs timescaledb going after a financial company offering timeseries data collection and viewing.

I think a good border test would be, would timescaledb allow you to offer a metrics and logging service? technically you're offering timeseries database functionality, but it's in a constrained domain, and very clearly a different product, but still effectively CRUDing timeseries data.

Rust, the language itself depends on 220 packages: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/e8753914580fb42554a79...

If you trust nobody, it is hard to use anything.

But about your second note, (environment, mismatched dependencies), I would argue that Rust provides the best tooling to solve or identify issues on that area.
In languages without infix function calls, that should be possible, but I'm not sure how readable it would be.

is this about backup in a power outage or earning money buying when pores is cheap and selling when it is more expensive? There is a big difference as in an outage you can conserve power and watch the meter to goeto a nearby charger as needed.

I really enjoy reading Andy's ideas on education--alongside Peter Gray (a psychologist who emphasizes the importance of play for education, https://www.amazon.com/Free-Learn-Unleashing-Instinct-Self-R...) and Piotr Wozniak (invented SuperMemo, https://supermemo.guru/wiki/Main_Page), he has really shaped my perspective on learning. I actually built a last-minute YOLO application to YC on an extremely similar idea--I figure that modern LLMs are capable enough to offload most of the metacognitive aspects of learning onto. Learn drive (a Wozniak term: your natural curiosity) can take you pretty far in a subject, but it's often frustrating to find the right order to learn concepts based on your current understanding and the subject matter. I've previously scoured syllabi on the internet for this, but often what I want to learn isn't really codified in a single course.

I started building a prototype of this idea that I've been very slowly working on in my free time that indexes and uses my notes in emacs for RAG against a locally running LLM. I do think these kinds of learning LLMs have to be run locally, though I've recently gotten a little frustrated because I cannot run a capable open model without my machine's fans turning on.

There are at least two dozen countries in that area (mid east) of the world who are, constitutionally and in practice, ethnostates. Their constitution explicitly states that they are an "Arab state" and that their laws are based on Sharia law. Just Google for and read the constitutions of those countries in the Arab league, for example Egypt, Jordan, Sudan, Syria, etc. And then there is Iran.

Those who actively claim they are opposed to Israel because it is an ethnostate but are not also actively calling for these other states to be dismantled need to explain why that is not anti-semetic.

There is also the related question on those opposed to Israel because it is a "European settler/colonial" state. A significant majority (66%) of Israel consists of brown people. 25% of Israel is not Jewish, and of the rest (the Jewish population), at least half of those are indigenous to that area, and are, from a racial perspective, just as "non-white" as anyone else from that area.

The Jordanians occupied the land, and the annexation was recognized by only two States (Iraq, ruled by the Jordanian king's brother, and I forgot the other one). The Arabs now disregard that annexation, under fear that it would legitimize an Israeli annexation.

Everything in this conflict is a war of words and changing one's interpretation of past events to suit current goals.

Necessity and lack of control in a novel and frightening situation

survival;

A person who learned a new language in 14 days because they fell in
love with someone who spoke almost no English, but simply had to be
with them and make things work.

Someone who became an expert bricklayer when stuck in a remote
village where that was the only skill they could contribute.

kids upstate into the wild, gave each $10 and a bottle of water, told
them their assignment was to "find your way home", and drove off. Of
course all the kids made it and recounted the "best ever learning
experience of their lives". Today they'd sue for trauma... if they
survived.

The way it works today is the way it’s always worked. Laws have always needed enforcers, and international laws have only ever been enforced by the winners of war against the losers of war. That’s why the Romans enforced egregious reparations against the Carthaginians after the first Punic war (and took many of their men into slavery), which lead to the second Punic war (after which the same thing happened again).
It's about time that postgres (and other databases) add native append-only tables. That doesn't make it timeseries, but it probably helps with the standardiziation and all the logic/access around it.
And in the end everyone is amazed why hostile hackers could read confidential messages.

I'm not making any case here.

You asked for "something official", "[not] a blog post", "an official declaration".

I took up the challenge and found for you an official document of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights declaring " All of these Israeli settlements are illegal under international law".

> not a statement of what law is being broken.

From the linked document:

International human rights law and international humanitarian law apply concurrently in the Occupied Palestinian Territory of Gaza, the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, and the occupied Syrian Golan. This includes the obligations contained in the international human rights treaties to which Israel is a State party,[4] as well as the Regulations respecting the Laws and Customs of War on Land of 1907 (Hague Regulations) and the Geneva Convention relative to the Protection of Civilian Persons in Time of War (Fourth Geneva Convention), which are binding upon Israel as the occupying Power under international humanitarian law

as stated in an above comment by another party.

I have no stance on the matter.

You're welcome.
One may rightfully ask whether Alexander just "went with the flow" as you phrase it, or to use a different term, "was lucky to be at/in the right place at the right time". Or even "lucky to have died before his luck ran out".

Let's keep in mind though that having great resources at your disposal, and a large circle of experienced and capable advisors at hand, does not necessarily create a lasting form of "action alignment" between those.

It is interesting in this context that none of his advisors or "immediate staff" ever strongly challenged Alexander in his lifetime.

They deferred to him till the last moment, only to basically be snubbed off by his famous "whoever's strongest" last words. Only then did they go for each others' throats.

It is of course possible, given historical records and "history is written by the victors", that his portrayal as integrative figure is flawed and more incorrect than not. The behaviour of the diadochs, the "infighting of the inner circle" which he apparently had contained in his lifetime, yet broke out immediately after, that make it likely that he brought some forms of "interpersonal skills" to the table which neither his father, nor his "successors" possessed in equal measure.
