You are right. I edited my comment to remove the negative sentiment towards the advice itself. I also admire the craftsmanship there. Still, the dark patterns are just increasingly unbearable. Same can be said about many market leaders in other categories.

Biden has already called the indictment "outrageous." [1]. The U.S. Secretary of State has also spoken out against the indictment [2].

Needless to say, they're backing him, and the ICC can't arrest Netanyahu. At worst, the U.S. government will sanction ICC officials as they did under the Trump administration.

I personally can't believe the ICC is equating the actions of Hamas and the Israeli government. What a shameful organization.

There is a train in Australia that carries ore from a mine to a port, fully electric, which never needs external charging - the mine is higher than the port, so the train just charges its internal batteries going down, which is enough to drive it back up to the mine, it's very cool:

What about people who don't double-major because they need to also work a job, or for economic reasons they need to graduate as soon as possible, or minimize the credit hours and fees they pay, or they're doing undergrad research, or they need to focus on GPA, or they care enough about their major to spend any discretionary time on that?

Why give double-majors any preference at all over those other people, who don't sound like slackers?

Unless the board were anonymous, which wouldn't be very fair to the officers, that board would just be rife with intimidation and corruption. There is a reason Grand Jurys are secret, but they don't have any direct impact on the cases they hear. They can only move them on to the next step.
Scrolling ASCII Art Music Video
"Scroll art" is procedural generated ASCII art that fills the terminal and causes the text to move up, producing an animated effect. Once text is printed, it can't be erased. The window can only scroll up. I made these as a series of programming projects for beginners that can be done in any language and doesn't require installing additional libraries. You only need print and loops and random numbers. A collection of scroll art is online at [https://scrollart.org](https://scrollart.org)

Lots of orgs fail to turn money into talent and then talent into products.

It just takes one bad hire at senior level and suddenly your cloud is a vmware install where all machines are boot off network disk, and contention makes the entire thing fall over.
There’s plenty of good stuff out there, it’s just hard to find as you have to wade through the shit.

> I don't think we can say that the top comment is the majority/prevailing opinion

I just realized were using different meanings of prevail - you (and likely gp) are using it as a synonym for majority/widespread, I was using it as a synonym for victorious or overcoming competing top-level opinions. Re-reading gps comment, the majority interpretation is clearly the ine they intended, but ai feel its self evident that the most-voted comment had the most people agreeing with it.
Probably best to avoid charged words like 'cabal' on this of all topics.

I haven't seen any evidence that the flags aren't in good faith, including from users who feel the most passionately, and there are many of those on both sides.
At this point how do they differ?
Would it be correct to think of an ICC warrant not as a “warrant” in the traditional sense, but as sanctions?

That is, a court ordered warrant is typically executed by a government’s law enforcement. There is no such proactive enforcement mechanism available to the ICC.

Instead, the governments that have ratified the ICC-related treaties have simply agreed to arrest warrant targets if they happen to travel to their jurisdiction.

As such, it seems more like a “travel-ban” or “house arrest” than a warrant. Is that correct?
Yep. Even the few times I use it via the ChatGPT interface I spend as much time fixing the bad assumptions it made.
> artisanally hand-crafted by a workforce that likes to get home before traffic gets bad.

Ouch, that's gotta hurt.. I'm not saying I disagree, but I do wonder if a project is going "right" only when it starts to hit excruciatingly long shifts and burns workforce like coals - especially if it is expected to safely carry humans to the Moon. I think it's more likely a sign of doing something that wasn't planned and budgeted properly (which may certainly be because it simply had never been done before - so it will often correlate with innovative projects). If you worry about your workforce being motivated, transparently tying compensation to company success does wonders.
> But naming it seemed a little rude to the place, in that it's negative PR.

It's a place, not a person. Anthropomorphizing it doesn't magically bestow it feelings nor shame.

Additionally, the point isn't to shame it. It's that by making it a "puzzle", you're more likely to have people calling it out; rather than if you just named it. If someone saw "Seattle", they'd read it and forget it five seconds later.

A16Z: AI, Robotics and the Future of Manufacturing
TLDR:

The Future of US Manufacturing: The only way to rebuild US manufacturing lies in advanced manufacturing - utilizing cutting-edge technology, fully automated and AI-enabled factories.

Automation and Jobs: Embracing automation, AI, and robotics can lead to revitalizing the American manufacturing sector, creating a variety of jobs not just in operating but also in optimizing and improving manufacturing processes.

AI and Robotics in Manufacturing: Currently, successful robots in manufacturing are programmed for specific tasks. The movement towards intelligent robots that learn tasks and adapt to changes is underway, though not yet fully realized.

Data's Role in Advancement: The advancement in AI and robotics heavily relies on large sets of data to train algorithms, making them more effective and adaptive to real-world scenarios.

Potential for Industry Growth: With a focus on advanced manufacturing techniques and technologies, there's potential for not just the resurgence of American manufacturing, but also for spreading job opportunities across different regions, revitalizing towns with the capacity for new factories.

that's right! Hamas broke the ceasefire on October 7th, and if the Israelis laid down their weapons, they would be slaughtered. they can't afford to leave Hamas in charge. they don't want control of gaza, but it doesn't seem like there's any alternative to military occupation if they want to stop the incursions for good.
There's an RX6900XT for $93 on amazon. It says sold by a chinese merchant... do people consider this legit or is this some type of scam? I don't see new or used listed and I get the feeling this gpu was used for crypto and being dumped on Amazon.
Ending plastic pollution: an opportunity for health
Ordinance version 3 starts "Ordinance amending the Administrative Code to require that City departments acquiring surveillance technology, or entering into agreements to receive information from non-City owned surveillance technology". But after that it's 21 pages and I don't know if that's the version that was adopted.

then

"(d) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Chapter 19B, it shall be unlawful for any Department
to obtain, retain, access, or use: 1) any Face Recognition Technology; or 2) any information obtained from Face Recognition Technology. A Department’s inadvertent or unintentional receipt, retention access to, or use of any information obtained from Face Recognition Technology shall not be a violation of this subsection (b), provided that: (1) The Department does not request or solicit its receipt, access to, or use of such information; and"

So asking the neighbors to use theirs does seem barred. (But then again it's 21 pages.)
Not necessarily, I still run small fonts because that's all I've known. In the 90s we had very tiny resolutions so we needed to get as much info on the screen as possible.

Is Ozempic a GLP-1s? I'm a bit out of my depth with some of the technical information here.
Exactly. There are some judges that will rubber stamp warrants without even looking at them closely, but there are still plenty who don't and there's a paper trail as well that provides some protections. When you just go to where no warrant is required, it won't make a difference when the police want to get a specific person, but it will make a big difference on whether they are able to surveil wide swathes of the population and how easy it all is for them.
> I personally can't believe the ICC is equating the actions of Hamas and the Israeli government.

I think that is an unfair statement. Just because they asked for a warrant to be issued for both does not imply that they think both are the same.

Yes the did (and are doing). They didn’t get the 6.7k, but they did have to make cuts in large part because the payout was unsustainably high.

Don’t give a shit. I’m arguing against your claim that there’s no evidence UBI could lead to cuts in public services.
They can and will. California will go after you for them. Happened to a friend who had documented 7 months in another state.

Base macOS uses more than 4GB, or close to it, on a fresh install right after booting. 8GB really is a minimum for macOS. But tons of consumers use their computers in ways that require more resident pages in memory, like having hundreds of open tabs in Chrome or Safari. 8GB is getting really constricting even for casual use.

> Personally I feel that after about 5-8 years of experience, it gets increasingly difficult to transition your career out of your original niche.

I had a professor who said that a computer scientist must reinvent themself every 7-10 years. Your niche won't exist much longer, so better not get stuck in it.

It can be a matter of attitude. Why choose between being a generalist and a specialist when you can be both? Become a recognized expert in something, but at the same time keep widening your expertise and learning whatever you need. Then if a career path dries out, you are ready to jump to a mid-level or even senior position somewhere else.

Anything would be better than what we have now, where a (perhaps mythical) "fiduciary duty to shareholders" is used as justification for all crimes, legal or otherwise.

We want people to be scared to buy a company that's well known to be a ball of shit. If some people get away with it anyway, well some people get away with murder. That doesn't mean we shouldn't at least try to punish it.

I'm usually more in favor of broad responses and then try to patch the loopholes afterwards than try to solve all loopholes beforehand. The shareholders already have the "can't lose more than the investment" guarantee, which should still be pretty damn good for non-evil companies.
A NOT door would be interesting
I am a very anti react person but I believe that HTMX alone isn't enough. The problem that React solves (and Svelte solves much more elegantly) is not that of reactivity etc but of being able to describe your UI in terms of components and then build your application from those lego blocks.

HTMX leaves that component problem to the server side templating instead and IMHO that is a far more loose and leaky abstraction.

Infallible code is too rare to be worth any effort. Even math can fail (though most platforms are stuck with legacy decisions to quietly return wrong answers). And you always have to recover from a timeout due to a downstream failure in some of the cheap commodity hardware that's running your code.

3. Average experience level needs to rise to a certain level to appreciate that fewer features that compose better is superior to many features that aren't made to be composed.
The War of 1812 could easily be considered such.

Edited highlights from the evisceration of Craig Wright
When it comes to resolving debts, it's always the same anywhere. Debt after all, is just a measure of how much someone owes a favor, and money the opposite; a measure how much someone is owed a favor. In other words, debt/money is nothing but a measure of exchanging favors (ie trade).

So when it comes to resolving debts between nations, it is resolved in the very same manner: via trade.

However, forcing a foreign nation to uphold their trade agreements (debt obligations), or even domestically speaking, is a separate matter entirely (ie the matter of taxing). As far as foreign nations go when they don't uphold theirs, you can engage in war and confiscate things, and/or you can change trade agreements. These are actually the very same options you have domestically speaking (repos / taxes).

200% font scaling sounds so innocent and fundamental. Is it hard because they waited too long and have too many teams / frontend systems? Or is font scaling CSS just tough for everybody?
Sure, the concept is not new at all, but it is distilled to a very usable form. A similar comment can be made about TailwindCSS.
The ironical thing about the "Follow what creates value for other people" advice - for math graduates in particular - is that most of modern math doesn't seem to be motivated this.

I'd probably agree that research math also doesn't come from a goal of "self growth", but maybe it should be something like "follow your curiosity".
> Not least, but certainly the requirement to brake before you land must be on the small order compared to achieving escape velocity from the much bigger rock I'm on?

The problem is all the fuel you use to break before landing also has to achieve earth escape velocity at first. And it makes the original problem much harder because the total mass that needs acceleration grow exponentially with delta speed.
Supporters of Hamas are calling for a genocide and doing everything they can to get one. But then they say the other side is doing that.
It's called "editorial policy", specifically the editorial policy for international topics. The big mainstream firms like NYT even include the government in their editorial process for high-risk topics, because they don't want to publish things that might "put American lives at risk" or other euphemisms for government censorship.

Check out the career arcs for the top international editors; it's not a very ideologically diverse crowd!

These policies are quietly enforced by the systemic firing and blacklisting of journalists (and presses) that demonstrate journalistic integrity in violation of the policies.

A warrant is a standing order to arrest someone on sight.

A warrant may additionally grant the police extrajudicial powers to enforce the warrant but that's a separate legislative concern. In the case of the ICC the enforcement is left up to individual member states. There may be consequences for not enforcing a warrant when the opportunity presents itself.
One way of enacting a corporate death penalty is to declare that when a fine is larger than the company's value, the fining body simply nationalizes it and takes it over.

I find Windows 11 so offensive with its telemetry and pestering for sharing additional information that I am not at all lured away like I once was by the promise of the Surface.

I hope others feel the same and they revert to how Windows 7-10 was. I absolutely hate the experience every time I interact with a fresh install. But I don’t see a future where it gets any better.
One of the interesting aspects to me, is that ICC considers this both a non-international and international armed conflict (mildly different laws apply depending on which it is, but the difference is small as far as i understand)

How could something be both? Palestine is either a separate state from Israel or it isn't.

We've been linux-only now for quite a few years, and I've been really pleased with how much we can get done without Windows (or Mac). All the Windows only games we play work great on Proton (disclaimer: we don't do any games with anti-cheat though). The only thing that I still must have Windows for is a Cricut machine that my wife has. I've got it working in a KVM VM though with USB pass through.
Because, at some point, people realized that React-like frameworks were getting overly complicated for many simpler usecases that only needed a small fraction of the features provided by these.
