They did not focus "on a specific crime the false documents were meant to conceal". They presented three possible crimes to the jury, but didn't even require them to declare that he had committed any of those crimes, let alone agree on which. If some of the jurors simply believed that "hush money" is illegal (as many people do), they could have convicted on that basis.

Each of the alleged crimes has subtle details that separate it from the perfectly legal practice of paying someone for non-disclosure. By failing to charge a specific crime, the prosecution avoided discussing those details.

Ask yourself: why didn't the prosecution charge Trump with violating 17-152, and avoid this issue? Could it be because they didn't think they would win such a charge?
I feel like we have this discussion every month, one way or another.

People use Discord because it's useful and they like the experience. Discourse is nice for purely written communication but if you want to setup a call, direct message and, more importantly, write bots (presentation, topic organization, news, modding, now even AI Q&A); people will fall back to Discord.

Pointing at Discourse when it doesn't have the same value proposition and blaming users is just not useful at all.
I'm not sure that using a browser integration rather than having credentials pass through the clipboard really counts as an edge-case.

In fact, I'd go further and say it's exactly the use-case that should be being encouraged. As well as avoiding the issue of clip-board watchers, it also reduces friction and increases the likelihood of ordinary users being willing and able to use it.

Using a hardware key to unlock the database arguably is more of an edge-case, but conversely I'd argue that it's not acceptable to simply break that workflow.

So, IMO, Klode was very much the "computer says no" part of the analogy. He changed the process so the default was to turn away live use-cases.

For example, assuming to understand how to interpret a certain string, which usually causes all kind of escaping issues.

I can tolerate a new UX based in feedback and reasonable design principles even if annoying to rebuild muscle memory, however now things like controlling volume are slow and glitchy and even worse, the music cuts out sporadically leading to a poor listening experience.
Flashy UI, channel grouping, custom emoji, server side persistent logs and now the network effect of most likely not having to ask someone to install and learn the ins and outs of another program.

So we should make everyone schedule 24/7, that way there is no unofficial overtime at all.

Unofficial overtime is a problem, but clearly the solution is not to make the official schedules longer. The solution is to actually do something about unofficial overtime.

Lmao that's just bad development, bad testing and the exact same thing can happen when using rest. "The dev wrote code and forgot to take permissions into account" happens to everyone.

And unlike rest, a properly written schema helps ensure they mostly do the right thing - even without strict permissions check, it should be obvious to anybody that they can't just write an `orders` resolver that does a `select * from orders`...

Most companies do a simple board swap for the customer, but then send the faulty boards back to the factory to be 'refurbished' - ie. run through the automated test rig and check every function is fully working.

By doing that, an unnecessary board swap is 'free' to the manufacturer - which makes diagnosing problems in the store far easier - just keep swapping parts till the issue is resolved.

When those boards end up back at the factory, they'll pass the test immediately and be able to be sent right out again for another repair.

For boards that don't pass the test, sort them by the failure symptoms and suddenly repair becomes far easier - "these 50 need a new power supply IC, pay someone $25/hour on the rework station to do that, costing $3/board labour and $3/board in components".
> You can observe the state of a machine

Yes, but you still observe it, right? That’s how evidence is created.

Religion operates at a level closer to philosophy. You can interrogate theories of mind logically, but when you try to apply scientific method it breaks down—there’s no hard evidence you can obtain to prove or disprove your hypothesis. Similar is true of the claims made by a religion, though its obvious weak point is it’s more axiomatic and less logically rigorous (which is why I am not a proponent).

HN loads quickly for me _despite_ the 147 ms. I guess partially because it doesn't need 20 roundtrips to sent useful content to me.

At some point, I wrote a webapp (with one specific, limited function, of course) and optimized it to the point where loading it required one 27 kB request. And then turned up the cwnd somewhat, so that it could load in a single RTT :-) Doesn't really matter if you're in Australia then, really.

Things will be very interesting if we treat each single rest endpoint as a GQL query.

With static typing definition and OPENAPI, we can declare the response type first, and then borrow the concepts of resolver and dataloder to easily construct the response we want.

Using resolver and dataloader can iterate as fast as GQL, and after the requirement is stable, we can refactor each single endpoint on demand.

for FastAPI user, pydantic-resolve is developed for this purpose.

That is not how HOAs work. They have a very defined set of rules, and a very defined process for changing and enforcing those rules. You are not at the mercy of anyone.

Local laws supersede HOA rules where they conflict and often cause “grandfathering” when HOA rules change. For instance, my condo board tried to get me to remove my grill. I pointed out that nowhere in the condo bylaws was a grill mentioned. They said something about city fire codes, so I got a note from the fire department. They were unable to force me to do anything.

HOAs in my city have passed rules saying owners may not use their condos for short term rental. But my city law says that changes do not apply to people who owned their rentals before the rules changed. So new owners may not but old ones still can.

Rule of law still applies, and everything is agreed to when you buy the property. You could simply buy a home outside of an HOA, so this is, squarely, freedom of association.

Nobody was implying that other countries do not have this freedom, in fact, he said the fact that they do is why he did not need to justify it.
That's just any big framework. Porting a large codebase between major releases of GTK (or Javascript frameworks) isn't much better.
They often do so, good idea.
This is a great analogy. I can think of one area in which it might be different though. In smaller HOAs such as mine, the HOA almost never takes any action of its own volition. It's almost always the result of some neighbor making a complaint forcing the HOA's hand, then the neighbor hides behind whatever action they compel the HOA to make. The HOA becomes the boogeyman and goes on the news, while the actual complainant gets to remain safely anonymous.

I've seen corporate firms that run HOAs professionally where they run a much more proactive/activist HOA, but in the case of my neighborhood we didn't like the results so we fired them. It was too much hawkishness about rules and the fees were heading through the roof. The more leisurely neighbor-complaint model seems to work better unfortunately. It's more efficient, even though it's quite a cowardly system if you ask me. It's better than the alternatives such as having anarchy.

I use irc primarily, but use Discord for D&D. Voice chat, plus screen sharing. Our DM shares their screen with the map, we use voice to play, and text chat for sharing details about initiative etc.

We could probably use mumble and sometime else. The screen sharing part could probably be jitsi. It's just been easier to get everybody playing our game on discord as they already have it.

> Right but not with the ability to easily jump between the two. That was really my only point

But jumping between computers is such a rare occurrence for me. I used the same MacBook Pro from 2014 to 2022 and was never without the machine for more than 8 hours.

I optimize for my personal daily productivity. I don't optimize for a once in 3 year or once in 8 year occurrence. That would be suboptimal overall. If some kind of emergency occurs, I'll manage, but I'm not going to base my whole workflow on the remote possibility of an emergency.

I never cared too much for KDE3, but KDE4 and KDE5 to me is much better than GNOME.

The main reason was KDE3 would set my eyes on fire, GNOME never did (on the same hardware). KDE4 was better with that and KDE5 I have no issues with eye strain.

I never used KDE6 so no opinion. FWIW, I still use simple window managers and will continue until forced onto Wayland. Hoping that never happens since I really dislike all Desktop Environments. If I had to use a D/E, it would be KDE.

But one comment about Trinity was with KMail, the version with KDE3 was great and I use to use it, but the KDE4/5 versions to me is hard to use. That is when I switched over to Thunderbird.

But that wouldn't be the same. Everybody can work on the engine. Worst case, if google wants to take over, the others can push their own version of the engine, compatible whenever they feel like, and different otherwise. IE was different because was totally closed and only MS could add features.
I like this take a lot and think its spot on. It feels very much like one of those decisions within a startup where the team decides to build their own tool that does the same thing as an equivalent commercial offering and consider it cheaper without thinking about the time to develop, maintain and improve.

Let's fix that.

Yes, please stop using discord. But also maybe stop using discourse.

Nothing is more off-putting about an open source project than seeing that discord is the main support forum.

I am in the fortunate position of being able to just solve my own problems by myself most of the time, but sometimes it genuinely is helpful to talk to someone about it.

If you're an open source project, please use IRC, or matrix if you absolutely must.

If you need a forum, well, discourse is not the worst option, but honestly no idea why forums need a tonne of javascript, a re-implementation of basic browser functionality like scrolling, and to override your keybindings. A mailing list is the ideal option. If you really must have something web based, I don't have any recommendations other than "please don't use discord, at least not unless you feel actually satisfied with its search functionality". You can self host a forum on a cheap VM and require some kind of user signup to try to mitigate the inevitable spam.

Yeah LLM's are just a nontrivial stepping stone. Humans don't need to consume the entire set of worlds knowledge, repeated from thousands of different mouths coming from different angles, to be able to learn to output human like thought processes.

At some point we'll discover a mew algorithm/architecture that can actually continuously learn from its environment with limited information and still produce amazing results like us.
Ultimately someone has to pay for things. Many communities have apparently decided they don't want to use even modern forum software and become a webmaster, along with avoiding the costs and time associated, or use someone else's existing forum (which may or may not suit their needs).

The quite liberal free file attachment limits (25MB each), ease of communication and ironically the fact Discord is closed off in nature means it's quite attractive for people to more easily share things that would require a separate file host normally (it's an almost universal experience that forums usually have meager attachment caps).

I'd be quite interested in an article that understands Discord's benefits and use cases and then approaches a critique and alternative solutions to address it in a more open web friendly way.

> Google won't send anyone to forums or blogs/personal sites anyways

Oh? It does here.
Last year I discovered I really enjoy group workouts. The local YMCA has several group classes and I find it far easier to exert myself and go when there is a group of people all doing the same thing as me. When I was by myself it was too easy to slack off or just not workout. But when I'm in a class it's hard to slack off or skip, for me at least.

At the age of 34 I've also discovered I love dancing. I do Zumba, sha'bam, and Les Mills Dance every week. Just listen to music and mimic the actions of the instructor.

The YMCA also has childcare that the kids enjoy which helps too. I don't have to find time when I'm not watching the kids.
Oh, London is notorious for having... questionable internet speeds in certain areas. It's good if you live in a new build flat/work in a recently constructed office building or you own your own home in a place OpenReach have gotten to yet, but if you live in an apartment building/work in an office building more than 5 or so years old?

Yeah, there's a decent chance you'll be stuck with crappy internet as a result. I still remember quite a few of my employers getting frustrated that fibre internet wasn't available for the building they were renting office space in, despite them running a tech company that really needed a good internet connection.
I use Discord quite a bit in the Elixir community and find it quite useful. Messages are persisted. There's a wonderful forum feature now built into the platform; and it's all searchable with a pretty robust filtering mechanism.

And with an active server, there's typically always someone around to help you chat through a problem almost immediately.

I understand the sentiment, but it does seem misinformed.

Slack, on the other hand. Absolutely! Stay away for anything related to knowledge-base.
