"forming little anaerobic pockets of lactic acid poison"

Aerobic metabolism is actually worse than anaerobic metabolism.

Anaerobic conditions tend to result in fermentation by fungi and other incomplete metabolism by bacteria. We even recycle lactic acid because it is energy rich.

Aerobic metabolism has "toxic" results= CO2, Sulfur gases, Urea, phosphorous compounds. Very energy depleted molecules that only specialized organism can process.

For anaerobic bacteria, Bacteroides and Clostridium come to mind. Everything else I can think of CAN thrive in aerobic conditions: Mycobacterium, Staphylococcus, Streptococcus, Escherichia , Salmonella...
In my experience it's really hard to prevent issues like this. RDBMS's kind of push you to keeping everything in the same database to take advantage of foreign keys and other features when in reality different data types will need their own source of record. I consider myself more experienced than most and I still fell into this trap in recent memory, failing to expect the scaling requirements for one of my tables until it was too late.
The modern OS that nobody asked for. This could backfire pretty badly if it doesn't succeed. We're still in a hype bubble. When the bubble bursts some thing will stay but many will be washed away
There are many other reports of similar length and rigor that argue otherwise. In the end none of these reports are 100% impartial. The definitions set out by ICSPCA are not 100% precise and leave much room for interpretation. Did you actually read Amnesty International report in full or are you just citing it because it's supporting "your" side?
If SpaceX wants to put people on Mars, and get them back, then the moon seems a pretty good proving ground for things like a lander and ascent module, orbiter, etc, not to mention for any kind of habitat/etc they're planning for Mars.

SpaceX planing to land Starship on the moon (and take off again) seems like a complete non-starter. I expect NASA can get the rest of their useless program built given enough money, but if Starship needs arms to catch it even when landing on a smooth concrete surface, then how the hell does it expect to land on an uneven pile of soft lunar regolith, much less take off again?

> If you take over some territory and rule it permanently, and then define the pre-existing population there as non-citizens with no way to change their status, you do not get to count as a democracy

On some timeline this is every population on the planet.

I’m not defending the Nakba. But it’s not a commonly-used exclusionary rule for democracies. If it were, there has never been a democracy on Earth. (And never can be. Everyone lives on territory once occupied by another people.)
Then post articles about the role of tech and its leaders in this conflict, rather than every update on the conflict as a whole.

In a developing country here. For people below 25, the majority are only familiar with smartphones. I think this comes down to the versatility of these devices(Camera, media consumption, browsing social media, ... ), and sadly that is most, if not all, of their needs in computers ...
Porting a game from x86 Windows to ARM Windows may take some effort, but for most games, nowhere near as much as porting to a different operating system. There just isn’t that much assembly code or even SIMD intrinsic use in your average game. And thanks to Microsoft’s Arm64EC ABI, the conversion from x86 to ARM can be done piecemeal. If, say, the game depends on some proprietary third-party library that isn’t willing to offer an ARM version, that library can be run in emulation while the rest of the game is compiled natively for ARM.

The AAA game world is very conservative, so I can’t guarantee that PC game developers will port their codebases to ARM. It really depends on the size of the audience and how well the x86 emulator works as a substitute. Even if ARM takes over on Windows laptops, I’m not sure laptops are enough, when laptop users are already accustomed to not being able to run AAA games well.

But if the audience gets large enough, it’s hard to believe that developers won’t try recompiling. It’s just not the same level of effort as a port to Mac or Linux.
South African apartheid specifically utilized this distinction of citizenship. The de facto state, to which all Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza are subjects, is Israel. This has been true for generations, and it’s going to remain true indefinitely. Keeping those Palestinians stateless doesn’t detract from the comparison to apartheid, it reinforces it.
As the saying goes, "don't threaten me with a good time".

And cut off water supplies and electricity, and killed international aid workers, and rained hellfire on hospitals, and killed workers from the UN, and wiped out entire Palestinian families, and razed Gaza to such an extent that it changed the colour of it as seen from space, and plunged Gaza into famine in the worst drop in nutritional status in recorded history.

Indeed - well, thank you for the piece. Just like the Google Search one it’s clear that plenty of work has gone into digging through corporate docs and giving them some much needed daylight!
Analysing the Israeli-arab conflict as colonialism takes a very complex issue and describes it in a very shallow, non-accurate way.
It's bad optics that the court didn't immediately move after 10/7.

A point. The reason a lot of countries want a two state solution is because they plan on deporting all their Palestinians once that happens.
I'm sure that infrastructure is valuable and useful, but might not be necessary. We had a simple encoder farm back in my kink.com days and it was a rounding error in our budget. I can only imagine it's cheaper and easier almost 20 years later.

And any bystanders too for that matter, safe in the knowledge that the end justifies the means.
Exactly. They're now aggressively competing with Apple with supposedly better performance and better battery life. That's huge. Apple was years ahead with the introduction of the M1 but it appears competition has finally caught up. All of this has to be proven in real life though, but so far all the newly announced ARM devices [0] look like impressive MacBook competitors on their own.

[0] So far it seems this are the devices that have been announced.

> “I don’t think most of the people out there cheering for Bernie sanders have given a thought to Venezuela”

What does Bernie’s universal healthcare proposal have to do with Venezuela?

Perhaps those outside the category of “most” rather give their thoughts to the broadly successful universal healthcare of countries similar to the US.

They are only “intellectual standards”, Mr Sowell, if you apply them evenly.

It is good for people who can, as knowledge workers ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knowledge_worker ) are able to continue to gain and market their ability to learn new things within the domain and apply their knowledge.

There are incumbents who are not able (don't have the skill scaffolding to support a broader understanding) or are unwilling to spend time to continue to be able to work or are a "follow instructions".

I've quipped that...

A junior dev follows instructions
A mid dev completes tasks
A senior dev solves problems

In this simplified model, I know a lot of junior devs (even with a decade of experience) who for whatever reason are unable to partition their software development tasks themselves to be able to be given a task to complete. Likewise, I know a number of devs who can be given tasks but if you give a broader "this is a problem that the organization needs to solve" are hopelessly lost and apply and reapply the patterns that they have learned to try to make the problem fit into a solution they know.

I do not believe that everyone has the skills / aptitude to move from one to the next.

Those that do will have the ability to navigate the new market. Those that lack the ability to move up will eventually be overtaken either by younger (cheaper) workers, or improving automation.
> The problem is that no one thinks of type conversions as taking any explicit paths!

Indeed. This is super surprising to me and I’m adding the topic to my “study” list. I had no idea until today - I easily could imagine it’s possible if some of the type conversions are “lossy” (e.g. maps to lists), but I have a strong feeling that simpified lossy conversions are not what is being referenced.
> htmx is definitely not right for most use-cases,

> the solution-space that HTMX fits in is extremely narrow

Strong disagree. HTMX is extremely flexible, surprisingly powerful and fully capable of driving quite a wide range of web applications. HTMX + Alpine even moreso, while still being far less complicated than one of the big 3 frameworks.
You'll be happy to hear that cables are being laid as fast as the equipment can.

St. Helena now has a cable connection. Awesome.
I agree with your assessment. I mentioned the friction people to stem the path where when people begin speaking about multiple streams of access to knowledge, they are typically attempting to inject a common apologetic approach to make theology or philosophical arguments for divinity of various types and definitions.
This is a fairly charged analogy which plays into the presentation of the sides and not the facts.

I'm not a doctor.

1. Veruccas are warts on the soles of the feet. If it's on your hand, it's a wart.

2. Warts are normally skin-coloured, or greyish, or yellowish.

See a doctor.

[Edit] I think some people refer to some kinds of mole as a "wart". If your lesion is dark, then maybe it's no kind of wart at all, but a mole, i.e. a melanoma.

I was not given local anaesthetic or sedatives. I think they would have offered me sedatives, but the whole deal would have taken 3 or 4 times as long. They might have wanted my pain response to tell them they had missed.

The pain was only during the jolts; when the treatment was over, I put back on my shoes and socks, and walked home (under a mile).

I can take pain; but I'll fkin scream and swear if I need to scream and swear. Basically, if I can stand the pain and not pass out, then I'd rather not be numb while some sawbones is hacking away at me.
raku has hit some community issues over the last few years, from (justifiably) standing on the perl versioning when called perl6 and some other issues from time to time.

since the name change to raku some years ago, the tussling over the future of perl has declined to nothing

on the other issues, well many OSS communities suffer from falling out of individuals at times - all the same the raku commit unity is healthy and large enough to be making slow but steady progress toward the release of v6.e, with a lot of cool features already in preview

>In addition, why doesn't the ICC look into Egypt's conduct of refusing to allow civilians to flee from this conflict?

To that, I ask - how are you 100% sure that that's not also happening?

Money only gets you things when you spend it. Real power is how much money you have to spend, not the market cap of the companies you own. There’s a tired meme that billionaires are somehow more powerful than the politicians in charge of all the money.
I'm hoping that the last year or so will finally deliver a replacement for American FPTP - the Republicans are split between RINOs and MAGA devouts, and the democrats are split too between the centrist and progressives too.

I don't know if it'll actually happen, but this is probably the most likely path towards it, if there is one.

I really disagree with this.

Touchscreens are not necessarily the best input device for any one task, but they are the second best input device for pretty much all tasks. They are very versatile - you don't need to define all your inputs up front, instead you can add new controls dynamically as needed (such as a keyboard that only shows up when you're inputting text, and even adapts to the type of text you're working with). When working with a desktop, you have a range of specialist input devices, from mice, keyboards (which themselves are a combination of different input devices for different tasks), drawing pads, trackballs, etc. A touchscreen will never be as good as any of these devices, but it can do the job of all of them, and switch between them as necessary.

Obviously there are limits to how useful this versatility is. A touchscreen in a car, for example, can control a lot of different aspects of that car from one place, but it makes finding those controls more complicated. So controls that need to be accessed regularly or quickly still need their own separate physical buttons. It's why volume buttons tend to still be physical on most phones. But you'd equally not want to control your car with a keyboard and a bunch of different shortcuts - understanding the tool that's best for the job is key.

And the point here is that the touchscreen is the best tool if you want something versatile.

I also think there's a big advantage to the vertical form factor for many applications - just look at how we've settled on a vertical format for almost all reading material. Again, it has its disadvantages as well, but most phones can switch between vertical and horizontal modes as necessary. Vertical screens also tend to have the largest accessible space if used in one hand - look at how far your thumb can move side-to-side vs top-to-bottom when operating a phone in one hand.

Smartphones are the form and size that they are because it works well: it is largely accessible, it's convenient, and people find it convenient to use. And it's not like it's just the first thing that we tried that stuck - there are a myriad of failed smartphone concepts that have been tried out but just aren't as convenient.

That's not to say that you have to find the smartphone concept convenient yourself, but it's valuable understanding why they work so well for so many people.
I’m not talking about the Nakba, I’m talking about the situation in the West Bank today.

It’s horrible that so many Palestinians had to leave during the Nakba, but since the ones who stayed were eventually granted citizenship and legal equality, I think it’s fair to say that Israel proper is administered democratically today — similar to the situation of Native Americans in the U.S.

But people in the Gaza Strip and the West Bank have no way to become Israeli citizens (unless they are Jewish), despite those territories being controlled by Israel, probably permanently. That is clearly undemocratic.
That's why I flag em. They never lead to fruitful discussion even though I wish it would! I think though it's possible it would require way too much moderation- the juice ain't worth the squeeze.
To make it even more confusing, the Xbox One had the mid-generation updates called Xbox One S (slimmer, a few additional features) and the Xbox One X (more powerful.)

So from oldest to newest it's

- Xbox

- Xbox 360

- Xbox One

- Xbox One S

- Xbox One X

- Xbox Series X and Series S (released simultaneously: S is smaller, X is more powerful)

So for a period of time in stores you might see a One S, a One X, a Series S, and a Series X. If you aren't a gamer, it's a complete mystery which is the newest and most powerful. I'm sure some kids got the wrong console for Christmas, as the One X was at times more expensive than a Series S, despite being an older console that would later not support many games that the Series S supports. This would be even more likely to happen if the Series X was out of stock (so the most expensive Xbox console at the store might be a discontinued model that won't support all the new games.)

In contrast, it's pretty obvious that a PlayStation 5 is going to be better than a PlayStation 4. Yes, a quick search will show which is the newest and most powerful Xbox, but if people have to do research to find out which is your best console and they don't have to do that for your competitor, then you have a confusing naming scheme.
What I don’t understand about this that they tried it by shoehorning it into windows updates (without asking if you wanted it) and it was (in my bubble at least) universally loathed. Does anyone know anyone actually using and enjoying the windows 11 “copilot” update?
What's even more annoying is that the *printf functions take in double which forces you to cast all of the floats you pass in when using -Wdouble-promotion
I think there might be more to consciousness than just simulating the physical components of the brain that we currently understand. There are theories that neurons or clusters of neurons are leveraging quantum superposition in order to function. If that turns out to be true, then a simulation of the physical parts won't be enough for AGI. It would also mean that we actually do need to gain a better understanding of how the brain works in order to achieve AGI. I am skeptical that we can achieve AGI with software alone.

For that kind of thing, you’re 100x better off getting an old enterprise uSFF workstation on the cheap. Whenever I can, I reach for a used Dell 5070 or similar if I don’t need GPIO. They eBay for about £40-50, have real NVME, x86, and the pentium ones are pretty powerful.
Author here, this is obviously a high level post! There are many, many posts about how Postgres with different extensions can get you different things.

I didn't want to go down that path for this article because I didn't want it to end up as a sales pitch. The article you describe needs to be written, but it's a follow-up in my mind (and much more technical, for a slightly different audience).
I'm not sure that VC's will be investing in the company of a failed entrepreneur. At least something should have changed to make the company "better". In Gumroads case the truth was that the money would be pretty much gone, the company is not going to be valuable. He didn't raise this time from VC's, but from clueless retail investors, which is quite a different thing.

It's an exe <= 65536 bytes. A modern OS does have gigabytes of external libraries, but the functions in them are more "support every graphics and sound chip out there" than "draw cool spaceship" and "play a funky beat". They're not allowed to obtain anything from the internet, nor anything else beside what comes as standard with the OS.

Everyone gets the same base OS and compete against _each other_, so nobody gets a special advantage. If someone finds a clever way to use the base OS for more bytes (such as reusing the standard Windows fonts or MIDI soundfont or CAB compressor), then so does everyone else, and they use the saved space for even more cool and impressive stuff next release.
