Your statements such as

> We know that there’s only one 1 in the rational numbers, then it must be the same 1 object as the 1 in the integers.
> The statement “3/3 is in Z” is true.

That's probably true, but I think that's actually kind of sad. We've seen enough legal threatening to prevent the truth from getting out that I think our reactions are to assume that's the case. If indeed this is Lumina being upset that a journalist went to far and made false claims about them as they indicate, and the truth is better than indicated, would we not expect a legal proceeding if the journalist would not retract false claims?

I don't know who is ultimately in the right here (but at least one of Trevor's defenses of his assertions seems flimsy at best to me, namely the "you didn't say otherwise so I assumed this was true" one), and it would have been better if they could come to an agreement without the legal system about how best to handle this (Lumina does seem to be going harder at this than possibly needed), but I think we should assess the situation on the merits, not that there is a legal case at all.
I find that name even more baffling when the reason they apparently branded the previous one Xbox 360 was so that they wouldn't go against the PS3 with an Xbox 2. Somehow it was now fine for an Xbox One to go against a PS4.
>Biden's team vetoed UN calls for a ceasefire three times.

"Calls for ceasefire" that didn't include "calls to release the hostages", to say nothing of the fact that Hamas leadership had already been shouting they would "repeat October 7th again and again until the final destruction of Israel" and so on.

I love that, I need also one for the cloud-free products. I don't need scanner files in cloud, no, I don't need a washing machine uploading some data to AWS. I just need tools that do whatever they were invented for.

Zooming in far enough does require horizontal scrolling.

Still, I find it preferable to messing with font sizes as I hate reading on the phone and want to spend as little time as possible looking at the small screen, so I usually zoom in to what I want to see/read/click on, switching phone orientation if necessary for a 2nd option for the text size.

I could be wrong, or in a minority opinion group.
Without a doubt it’s easier. But don’t we have more tools than before? Don’t companies & organizations have more employees/developers than before? Why are we getting less with more? I feel like there were higher standards in the jquery era.
I mean, I agree. I'm a 2-stater. Netanyahu and his governing coalition have for a decade now been redlining "culpability" as far as I'm concerned!

(I'll say again though that Hamas in 2018 is a different entity than Hamas in 2016. They're both very bad organizations, but only one of them was literally working to bring about the end of days.)

> I also read that the hedge fund that bought Red Lobster sold the land the restaurants are built on and then leased it back to the restaurants at an elevated rent.

How can they decide how much rent to charge if they no longer own the land? Do they just act as a property manager between the new landowner and the the restaurant?

> So Golden Gate Capital gutted it, dumped it, and then jacked up the rent... Gordon Gecko would be proud.

I can totally see that happening, but I'd argue they wouldn't have done it to a strong brand, which has a lot of value. Red Lobster wasn't a strong brand. If the brand were strong it wouldn't have been sold in the first place.

PE and hedge funds look for weak businesses that they can then gut. They have a lot of leverage in those situations. I doubt the hedge funds lost money on the bankruptcy.
Teens addicted to only instant gratification were never the ones to produce really good stuff in the demoscene anyhow, they will put countless hours into other arenas.

Also back in the mid 1990s maybe the demoscene _was_ instant gratification to get started? You could start doing graphics with "mov eax,13h / int 10 / mov ax,a0000h / mov es,ax / mov di,0 / (loop with stosb).. ".

To get started today with graphics you either setup openGL/d3d with their weird API's with decades of legacy, use something third party (and learn linking/libraries) or write a 3000 LoC hello-vulkan (Or use Unity,etc but then up until 5 years ago you'd get shouted out of the scene due to elitistic attitudes).

It's easier to see if you play with it on the actual site rather than look at the images and try to deduce what could be different. It's not really related to things like order or positioning of boxes, that's an extremely easy problem to solve. Some of it is loading progressively space saving assets e.g. the logo goes from "${icon} airbnb" to "${icon}" to "" depending on how much space there is, the search bar simplifies so you have space to actually type, and some content border elements are removed so there is more room for the actual content e.g. rather than blindly always show content boxes with rounded borders, spacing, and other attributes you can gain a lot of space back on small displays by stretching the container's content to fill that part of the screen completely. This is particularly useful if you combine this with getting rid of certain UI elements from earlier.

HN also does what's described at the end using media queries - if you make the page small your topbar fills the entire top and changes element layout while the post content area fills the entire rest of the screen.

Another Chapter in the Race Towards AGI – Gorilla Newsletter
You can stir-fry on an induction cooker just like you can pull a caravan with a Fiat 500 (a small car for those who don't know the type), you just need a smaller caravan and travel at a slower pace. You might want to avoid those steep passes. Don't try to overtake, keep off the road when the wind is above 5 Bf. and avoid motorways.

I have a lot of experience in this what with me being Dutch - where Nasi Goreng (Indonesian-Chinese stir-fried rice) is somewhat of a national fare - and having cooked on:

- gas: one of the best options for stir-frying, you can use any type of wok/wadjang you want. Use the largest burner you can find so you can fry larger batches at the same time while keeping the heat up.

- resistance-electric (whether cast-iron or coil or ceramic or halogen): not what I'd choose for this, you need a flat-bottom pan which does not warp under high heat -> cast iron or heavy aluminium -> slow to respond. Generally not enough power for keeping up the heat while stir-frying larger batches.

- induction-electric: also needs a flat-bottom pan which needs to be ferromagnetic, many if not most domestic induction cookers lack the required power (4 kW or above) for a good result. Avoid 2 kW indiction cookers without 'boost' function as those are simply too weak for even small batches

- wood-burning stove with removable rings: together with gas the best option since you can sink the wok/wadjang down into the fire by removing enough rings and stoke up the fire to whatever heat you require. I can easily stir-fry 8 portions in a single batch in a large wok on the wood burner (nominal power 4.5 kW but it can go higher if needed).

So, gas or wood, take your pick. If you have to choose electric and you really want to be able to stir-fry you'll want to get an induction wok cooker.
>It's not an insinuation it's an obvious fact of the world we live in. It's obvious to anyone who has used this site, or any other site, for any period of time.

I think it's very easy to feel it as an obvious fact, it's not that easy to really know that it's going down.

Allow me to externalize the subject to avoid involving HN on the matter: Reddit. Reddit has had astroturfing campaigns, of this I'm completely sure because I've seen it go down and get caught and everything. Here is an example about a year ago on r/programming: https://web.archive.org/web/20230611210834/https://old.reddi...

Because it's just not that great.

If you have a client that's going to make a request to your server, why not just expose the necessary data at a json route and let the client do what it wishes with that data? It's already the simple, general solution.

With Htmlx, you expose an html route that must be synchronized with the html already sent over the wire so that it can be inlined into the existing html. This means that if the surrounding html/classes change, you may have to update a bunch of fragments because they depend on the existing html. Even if the data itself never changes.

Sending just the data is simpler and more versatile.

Diesels never were carb'd - there's no venturi effect possible without vacuum. There's no spark. It's just totally different.

They always have direct injection into the cylinder as far as I know. Maybe in the early 1900's they did manifold injection but I don't think so.

It's just a total different concept.

How the metering is done (IE How much fuel to meet load) though may have been similar, I am not sure. I 'asked a friend' on this one, since I am really unfamiliar with diesels in general.

international law, courts, treaties etc. don't really work like that

Like there is no such thing as a "universal" right, law, lawful action or anything. There is just "agreements/policies" countries enforce by the power of their military/economical/geopolitical might not by jurisdiction, through for practical reasons most times there is a _self imposed_ jurisdiction of some form.

Through in most cases (i.e. not war, special military operation) this "upholding" is limited to their territories.

The jurisdiction the ICC has imposed on themself is, more or less, to judge war crimes and genocide by anyone anywhere internationally.

In practice this means anyone anywhere as long as the power of the ICC member states allow them to do so (in a for the member reasonable way).

Practically the only place in which countries can reliable enforce such things is in their territory/people. E.g. this means they don't enforce it when the person committing the crime is an US Citizen because they are not powerful enough to force the US to allow them to do so.

What that means in this case is, that assuming a warrant is issued, they will be arrested iff they step into member state territory. And even then it might depend on the individual power of the member state and the context under which they stepped into the member state.

Through iff ICC members would be far more powerful and united, things could be very different.

E.g. the US imprisoning no US Citizens arrested outside of US territory in Guantanamo was a case of "having enough power to enforce their rules outside of their territory". (But it's also a terrible example given such arrests in general didn't follow the procedure you would expect from a state of law (or the ICC) and we know today involved more then just one or two innocents. Heck if the ICC had the power they would likely have judged that to be a war crime and issued an arrest for the people responsible for it.)

The current best estimates are for 15 to 20 thousand civilians. When you write 35 thousand you are showing you believe Hamas propaganda.
IMO Israel is digging its own grave in the region by being so unwilling to work with their neighbors. KSA and UAE are brutal to opponents and KSA's own meddling in the region shows that they'd do anything to keep militant Islamism from gaining a larger foothold in the region. All they had to do was to open up a dialogue with their neighbors, it would have stopped Muslims from unifying around this issue, probably normalized relations even further between these states, and would have given Israel significant leverage in the region as a bulwark of diplomatic stewardship. Now even though the US is doing everything they can to tow the line between supporting Israel and stopping a bloodbath, Israel itself has probably lost any and all support from its neighbors sans maybe Egypt, and the US will be hard-pressed to offer support in further instances of aggression against Israel.
Can someone familiar with lockdown mode on iPhone tell us how close it gets to dumb?
Everything you're pitching here seems predicated on the idea of breaking off all practical diplomacy with Netanyahu. Which, if you think you can topple Netanyahu, sure, but I imagine there are career diplomats telling the administration that moves like these are as likely to bolster Netanyahu's position as they are to hasten his ouster.

Certainly it is not my contention that the US is consistent with respect to the ICC.

It's a bad situation. I genuinely think that the administration is playing the best it can with the cards it was dealt. I think we're all clear what the counterfactual other administration would be doing.

I disagree, but your odds of having a bad time with game meat are much higher. I liken it to the early days of craft beer. If you wanted an acceptable beer that wouldn't wow you, but never surprise you, you could always drink budweiser. But if you felt like playing six-pack roulette, pick up your local microbrew. Could be awesome, could be terrible, you won't know until you've taken a drink.

Domestic goose is better than wild goose, but grass-fed elk (that is, ranched elk) just tastes like beef. Likewise with grass-fed bison. Truly wild elk has that gaminess to it that I really appreciate. I've a recipe for venison burger casserole that is utterly flavorless when made with ground beef. Bear sausage is only good when its heavily mixed with actual pork, and spiced to hell and back.

Deer and pronghorn that graze on sagebrush actually taste sagey. If that's your jam, its fantastic.

If anyone here is from the US and doesn't like Israel scoffing at the ICC, they should read up on the American Service-Members' Protection Act

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/American_Service-Members'_Prot...

> The United States is not a member of the International Criminal Court (ICC). The Act authorizes the president of the United States to use "all means necessary and appropriate to bring about the release of any U.S. or allied personnel being detained or imprisoned by, on behalf of, or at the request of the International Criminal Court". This authorization led to the act being colloquially nicknamed "The Hague Invasion Act", as the act allows the president to order U.S. military action, such as an invasion of the Netherlands, where The Hague is located, to protect American officials and military personnel from prosecution or rescue them from custody.

It was introduced in 2002 when the US invaded Afghanistan and Iraq and hasn't been rescinded. So if the US ever committed war crimes in those countries, or any other ones; too bad. The US so totally and completely doesn't recognise the ICC's jurisdiction that it will literally invade the Netherlands in order to not be bound by it in any way, shape or form.

> tptacek's point could be summarized as "the facts are, in a real sense, not material to this conversation

Tptacek is demonstrating this well by editing the part of the comment I quoted, then acting confused. However, I don't subscribe to the idea that facts are not material to discussions involving claims of fact.

The claim Biden is preventing deaths in Gaza while sending the bombs that are killing them and vetoing ceasefire resolutions left right and center, even against the will of his own voters, would require stronger evidence than has been provided.

Also, international law, including the Genocide Convention, is binding on all signatory states. 'Realpolitik' is not a defense for complicity in genocide.

However, let's look at your abc points, ignoring international law for the moment:

a) it's not at all clear that that would work

We've skipped past the issue, which is that we shouldn't be sending arms at all at this point. We also have other leverage which hasn't been used yet - sanctions, trade restrictions, etc.

b) in the near term it probably causes Israel to make the situation on the ground in Gaza even worse

This has merit - Israel did threaten to use more unguided bombs if the arms flow stopped. Too bad Biden's people vetoed the UN ceasefire resolutions three times, against the will of basically the entire planet. What about the realpolitik of that loss in our global standing?

c) it would come with serious domestic political repercussions in an election year.

Believe it or not, and despite tptacek's claims above that most people don't care, polls in fact show that significantly more registered Democrats disapprove of Biden's handling of the situation in Gaza (sending arms) than approve, and that this is affecting their vote [0].
