> “Reporting” on Russia by the likes of BBC is just war propaganda now.

Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence. Please site your evidence the BBC is broadcasting war propaganda. Both BBC and Al Jazeera have been quite impartial and to their credit, getting news out of Russia isn't easy.

> For a fact, more people in the UK get visits from the police over social media posts than they do in Russia.

I suspect that is because Russian police have far more pressing matters to deal with than capturing escaped swans and intervening between members of the underclass sending each other threats on farsebook!

Interesting! Can you share some reads on that?
I've come to the retrospective conclusion decades after educational abuse that professors like this are more interested in showboating their mathematics knowledge than drive students to find good pragmatic solutions.

i.e. I know this super complex answer in which is it happens to be the only purely accurate thing. Can you guess it? vs what I would like to see which is: here are the foundational concepts, bring them all together and arrive at the naturally correct conclusion demonstrating your knowledge and understanding
I lean towards renting out housing at market rent in my city to be unethical, so I refuse on ethical grounds to become a landlord. In the long term if the opportunity (e.g. money) arises I would like to build housing charging at-cost rent, but that'd be a charitable activity rather than a profit-seeking one.

I live in New Zealand, which is quite addicted as a country to profiting from real estate. The ability to leverage your money into an asset that provides both enough cashflow to cover costs and interest servicing as well as appreciates in value ~7% annually means that for most people, becoming a landlord is the most reliable path to easy wealth.

Yes, you can become a margin trader, but the cashflow management is much harder, the margin interest rate is higher (here at least), and it is much more difficult compared to buying an existing house and renting it out.
I think the disagreement is about what “works well” means. You are approaching it from some kind of theoretical purity whereas most people approach it from the perspective of “works for every program I am likely to encounter”. Omega combinators aren’t an example of something typically written in Python. I think you’re making a similar decision about global type inference as the only “true” definition of type inference when clearly more limited type inference already adds a significant amount of utility & there’s not typically that much lost in an inability to avoid typing functions - it’s a bit inconvenient in some places, but overall acts as a way to define the explicit contract between the method body and the rest of the code which makes errors faster to spot and the language compile more quickly.

You are correct that the holy grail you’re trying to reach is impossible, but relaxing some constraints still yields a heck of a lot of practical benefit.
And if you don’t like the server software, there’s plenty that can also work with records from the OwnTracks client. E.g. I log my locations into Traccar (after a few years of using php-owntracks-recorder).

Those trenches aren’t in the middle of nowhere. They’re dug around cities and other strategic targets. The fights in the middle of nowhere are fought by mobile combat units.

Besides, these are wars of attrition where killing off the young men who fight wars is the entire point. A robot that takes a few months to manufacture instead of 18 years to raise changes the calculus entirely.

A common misconception that people don't seem to get (and that most news outlets conveniently forget to report), it's that if someone enters your primary or even second residence, that isn't considered Okupacion, it's considered "Allanamiento de morada" (breaking and entering). Even if you were on vacation for a month.

If that happens you call the police and they'll kick them out in 24 hours max.
I doubt your physical keyboard's connection to the motherboard is encrypted (I'd guess USB, I2C or maybe even PS/2 internally). I would also not be surprised if you can get small in-line sniffers that an attacker, with physical access for half an hour, could hide in your laptop.

All bets are off if your attacker is determined and has physical access.

> OP's mention of "Dual Citizens" clearly meaning Jews

"Dual citizens" clearly means "dual citizens".
If the OP had the information that many Jews in Congress were dual citizens, he was wrong- although in fairness it's an understandable false belief when you have US politicians coming to Congress wearing their IDF uniform or propose laws to give IDF veterans the same benefits that US veterans receive.

> concerned with AIPAC and not the other foreign PACS. Wonder what the differentiating factor is?

Just look at the the first PAC in the list you mentioned: it's Accenture. Classified as foreign because their headquarter is in an empty office of a tax haven. AIPAC is not even in this list: it's in the "ideology/ single issue" list, where it stands as the only pro-<some country> PAC in the list (and the 4th largest).

> This "problem" is just for people with a lot of houses, rentist, that are part of the problem. Or the banks and vulture funds, who had most of the houses and flats in spain.

And the squatting problem in spain is ridiculous small. THe percentage over the poblation is ridiculous. This that, in this article, don't mention at all.

This is a problem that *anyone* with more than 1 property might suffer. FTFY

It's unbelievable the way some people stretch it to defend squatters.

I never said they did, but the OP clearly thought so. I'm just pointing out that most of us don't work there, so we don't have whatever power the OP thinks we have.
Both pipelines got blown up.
The idea of law as having loopholes is relevant for politicians, who are tasked with ensuring that the written law reflects their intent. It's not relevant for courts, regulators, people or companies, who are all tasked with following the law as actually written. For those people there is no "spirit" or "true law".

The reason this is important is it's a sword that cuts both ways. It's always tempting to argue that whatever you'd personally like to happen is what politicians really intended, and any gap between reality and their preferred outcome is therefore a "loophole". But once you get into saying people should follow intent, not written law, others can easily argue that politicians never intended the law to be interpreted like that against them, and so therefore they are morally justified in ignoring it. It can be used against you as easily as you can use it against them.

A common example of this problem is income vs capital gains taxes. One ideological tribe is very fond of arguing that people who have income mostly from investments rather than wages are exploiting a "loophole" in tax law, but of course the reason there are different rates to begin with is exactly because politicians wanted to encourage investment. There's plenty of cases where this intent is discussed in written literature and there's no other reason to distinguish between income sources then set differing rates. There is no "loophole" and nor is the "spirit" of the law being violated. But you hear such claims all the time.

The other reason it's problematic is because you can't really know what the intent of lawmakers was. The law was their best collective effort at writing down what they wanted, as a result of numerous compromises and disagreements between different people. If they didn't write it down properly or the resulting compromise was a mess, that's on them, but a working legal system doesn't allow people to just blow off their written instructions and assume they know what was really meant.
I'm not sure if I would've tolerated it or not, I was in a tight spot financially when I took the job so I might have tolerated it for a bit longer at least if the pay was 2x my normal rate.

But I still would've hated every second of it. At 10x I definitely would've tolerated it for longer, but only by steeling myself with the thought that if I work 12 more months, I can basically retire afterwards.

I'd say the 1920s (so 100 years ago) is the earliest time someone from today could go back to and still be able to live more or less the life they have today. In the 1920s, at least in urbanized areas in the developed world, you had access to electricity, indoor plumbing, the modern appliances (vacuum cleaners and refrigerators became common in this decade), cars had stopped being luxuries and were rapidly becoming essentials, movies (even with sound towards the end of the decade), and radio (which also served as a forerunner for TV as there were a lot of dramas in addition to music on it)

Asking gpt to first output prolog program seem to 100% fix it!

Given that Alice has 13 brothers and 31 sisters, we can update the Prolog program with this information. We need to adjust the fact about Alice's siblings and then use the rule to calculate the number of sisters her brothers have.

Here is the updated program:

```prolog
% Facts
siblings(alice, 13, 31). % Alice has 13 brothers and 31 sisters

% Rules
% Alice's brothers have M + 1 sisters, since Alice is also their sister.
sisters_of_brother(TotalSisters) :-
siblings(alice, _, M),
TotalSisters is M + 1.

% Initialization goal
:- initialization(main).

% Predicate to find and print the total number of sisters Alice's brothers have
main :-
sisters_of_brother(TotalSisters),
writeln(TotalSisters).
```

In this program, the fact `siblings(alice, 13, 31)` represents that Alice has 13 brothers and 31 sisters. The rule `sisters_of_brother(TotalSisters)` calculates the total number of sisters that Alice's brothers have by adding 1 to the number of sisters Alice has (since Alice is also their sister).

When we run this program, it will print the total number of sisters Alice's brothers have:

1. Alice has 31 sisters.
2. Each of Alice's brothers will also consider Alice as a sister.
3. Therefore, each brother has 31 + 1 = 32 sisters.

The output of the program will be:

```
32
```

Thus, Alice's brothers have 32 sisters.
> Can we talk for a moment about the beef supply? Bird flu has now been found in both meat and dairy. The only guidance given so far by CDC is to cook meat to 160 deg. Well done. Let's put aside for a moment what that means about rare steaks...

We can start by talking about the fact that there seems to be no specific guidance from the CDC or USDA that suggests cooking steaks to 160F is necessary to kill bird flu, or that generally suggests this practice of cooking steaks to well-done.

In fact, a report on a very recent USDA FSIS study states the following about some intentionally-inoculated ground beef patties: "There was no virus present in the burgers cooked to 145 (medium) or 160 (well done) degrees, which is FSIS’ recommended cooking temperature. Even cooking burgers to 120 (rare) degrees, which is well below the recommended temperature, substantially inactivated the virus."

> I struggle to see how anything we have today is “AI”.

Your struggle is inherent in the "AI effect".

Calling it "the" is as wrong as calling all medical science "the" problem of medicine.

Replace "AI" with "medicine" and see how ridiculous your words look.

We have plenty of medicine without anyone saying "aspirin isn't medicine" or "heart transplants aren't medicine" or similar, and because nobody is saying that, nobody is saying "oh, so you think we've solved medicine, we can all just stop researching it now?"

So yeah, we've repeatedly solved problems that are AI problems and which people were arguing that no computer could possibly do even as the computers were in fact doing them.

> Rather than posturing, perhaps you could provide us with the definition of “AI” so we can all agree it’s here.

If ops point was rather that “accident”/“luck” are uniquely human… I don’t agree. Luck is when probability works out in your favour - and that can happen all the time with any sort of probabilistic search, which is rife in ML.

Cities do have urban planners drafting capital improvement plans(CIP) (usually), but I don't know how much top down directives are involved to say the plan must include plans to increase housing by X%, especially when X can't actually be planned for.
What is it with people and their strawmen. Squatting has, historically, predominantly targeted empty buildings like luxury rentals, offices, factories, churches, etc. Please show me a single example of somebodies primary home being squatted and they becoming homeless as a result.

I don't know about big cities in Spain, but e.g. in Berlin there are tens of thousands of squaremeters in unhoused space in form of offices and high-rent appartments.

Given that Alice has 13 brothers and 31 sisters, we can update the Prolog program with this information. We need to adjust the fact about Alice's siblings and then use the rule to calculate the number of sisters her brothers have.

Here is the updated program:

```prolog
% Facts
siblings(alice, 13, 31). % Alice has 13 brothers and 31 sisters

% Rules
% Alice's brothers have M + 1 sisters, since Alice is also their sister.
sisters_of_brother(TotalSisters) :-
siblings(alice, _, M),
TotalSisters is M + 1.

% Initialization goal
:- initialization(main).

% Predicate to find and print the total number of sisters Alice's brothers have
main :-
sisters_of_brother(TotalSisters),
writeln(TotalSisters).
```

In this program, the fact `siblings(alice, 13, 31)` represents that Alice has 13 brothers and 31 sisters. The rule `sisters_of_brother(TotalSisters)` calculates the total number of sisters that Alice's brothers have by adding 1 to the number of sisters Alice has (since Alice is also their sister).

When we run this program, it will print the total number of sisters Alice's brothers have:

1. Alice has 31 sisters.
2. Each of Alice's brothers will also consider Alice as a sister.
3. Therefore, each brother has 31 + 1 = 32 sisters.

The output of the program will be:

```
32
```

Thus, Alice's brothers have 32 sisters.
