Originalism is the opposite of that, no? Originalists are all about following what was actually written down, using an understanding of English as it was used at the time. It rejects modern re-interpretations of the law and avoids speculating about the 'spirit' of the constitution, even if that would be more convenient. The competing view is that of a 'living' body of law in which the meaning continually changes without the wording itself changing.

US Diesel Demand Hits 26-Year Seasonal Low in March
Thanks for the info. It's not that widespread, yes, but due to its gravity it's intoxicating and polarizing the public.

From what I observe, the amount of cases could have dropped down because many people choose to not buy or somehow shield their property (sometimes just filling windows with bricks, for example, which looks weird). So I'm not sure it's because the okupas/govt/police somehow changed the direction, it's just like the people get better at protecting themselves.

Btw, bying an apartment in Barcelona costs you 10% tax already, that probably discourages most speculation (and the prices have been stagnant for a couple of years).

> But the whole point of binding a key to hardware is to be secure even if a remote attacker has gotten root on your machine. An attacker with root can simply replace the software that reads your PIN with a modified version that also saves it somewhere. Then they can use the key whenever your computer is online, even if they can't copy the key off.

It protects against extraction, not usage on the machine itself. Of course they can use the secret on the compromised machine.

It's a fools errand to put elitist classical music and opera on TV to compete with the slop when mass TV dispersion is anti-elitism to the core, operating over the work week schedule not the broadway season.

Any one who cares about experiencing art as a pastime can see that government subsidies of culture performances could be better spent anywhere else than TV. Surely the TV station will just game it so whatever appears on the screen is slop-adjacent, they never wanted a high-culture wing, they gain nothing from a critical thinking audience.
No, not really.

Because Boeing deliberately withheld information about MCAS from the training. Especially because that would have led to breaking the shared type certificate. It could have happened in a western country just as well.

About the second incident it is a bit more debatable as some information was given after the first accident (though very sparse still) but for the first the pilots could not have been aware of the MCAS off-switch that would have solved all their problems.

In fact it was a bit nasty that Boeing even tried to play the "poor third-world airline" card for a while even though they knew exactly what had happened.

That’s pretty much the entire promise of capital A Agile (Scrum, Safe etc). It provides a framework for people without any knowledge or passion for software development to micromanage software engineers while ignoring agile principles and not bothering to conduct user research or to investigate product-market-fit or do anything else that might be worth doing other than creating extremely loose requirements they pulled out of the ether on a bi-weekly basis. The argument used to refute this is usually that people aren’t doing agile right and if only the people and companies were more competent and or did MORE Agile then things would be fine. Generally speaking successful tech companies don’t often put unskilled dispassionate middle managers in charge of software projects and don’t often use Agile processes

Software development is a lot like photography. If your work sucks it’s because the engineer/photographer isn’t close enough to the subject/user/business goal. Agile tends to silo engineers away from their ideal motivations (users/business goals) in favour of meeting the needs of the egos of management.

One case in point was a hedge fund who had increased their engineering team by a factor of 10 because they couldn’t get any work done after the Agile people took over. Their productivity had stabilised at a pre-agile /10 level. I was part of a group of consultants brought in to build them something because they were so unproductive. The consultancy’s solution was to do MORE Agile. So we ended up building a large but not very useful set of features instead of doing the smaller, more technically complex and much more useful feature. We completed the work on time only because of the generous bonuses offered to the outsourced developers. I believe it was unlikely to be worthwhile for the hedge fund.
Ah, the new Lightroom CC! I was a happy, delighted, enthusiastic Lightroom user from the moment it originally came out and threw Aperture into the bin where it belongs. Lightroom was fast, brilliant to use, a fabulous wrapper around ACR and managed all the photo files perfectly.

It was, to me, as perfect a piece of consumer software that has ever existed.

The moment CC turned up, not only was it a cut-down version in terms of features, but the file management side was gone too, and this whole cloud functionality took over. A complete workflow change.

The main benefit that I found, ok, the only benefit, was that I was able to easily create web galleries for client approval etc. Everything else was gone. Lightroom Classic came back, kind of, but the direction of travel was fixed.

It took me years and years to finally get close to that one-stop-shop workflow, using Photo Mechanic and Capture One, both of which have gone subscription-based and offering close to zero value in return.

My strategy now, I shit you not, is to never ever perform a major upgrade on this Mac and hold out until all the root SSL certificates expire with my current setup.

We used to have such stable computing environments and now everything is a cloud-connected, exposed and defenceless security shitshow.
There's a different way of going about this. So the author uses various projections and evaluates whether the churches are aligned. But this is backwards. The churchs were selected because they lined up. And they lined up on a mercator projection. There's simply no way that the churches could line up on different projections (subject to certain conditions).

So, let's just look at the churches as they line up on the Mercator projection. If you google the churches one by one, you start to notice a pattern. They all predate the invention of the Mercator projection. You also notice, as someone else pointed out, there's a hell of a lot of Churches called St Micheals.

If you have a random sequence of moves then after each move you have 1/5 chance of turning the opposite face. So the fact that in 16 moves sequence they had it twice is roughly expected even if they didn't optimize for it

Show HN: Genschool – Interactive platform for learning prompt engineering
Hey HN!

I'm excited to share Genschool (https://genschool.com), a new hands-on way to learn prompt engineering.

Prompt engineering has quickly become one of the most important skills in the AI and tech industry over the last few years. As AI models grow more powerful and versatile, the ability to effectively communicate with and guide these models has become increasingly valuable.

However, despite the growing demand for prompt engineering skills, the number of high-quality educational resources in this field is still pretty sparse. Many existing resources focus on theoretical concepts rather than practical application, making it challenging for learners to develop real-world skills.

That's why I'm building Genschool – to bridge the gap between theory and practice and provide professionals with an interactive learning environment for prompt engineering. Our platform offers situated scenarios that allow learners to apply prompt engineering techniques in realistic contexts, receiving immediate feedback and guidance along the way.

Let me know what you think!
I've got to assume that this is partly a Birthday Problem - that the probability of something unlikely being true grows rapidly as the population grows. Probability of 3 random churches lining up? Small, probability of 3 churches lining up when there are 100,000 churches in Europe? Basically 100%

I don't expect not to be recorded. I expect to be recorded and that some of this hits the GAFAMs. I want that last part outlawed.

You don't seem interested in an interesting, good faith, appeased discussion as shown by your subtle ways to misrepresent what I'm saying, which, intended or not, makes me look stupid, and your way of strongly and quickly asserting with a total lack of arguments and nuance instead of gently questioning. I'm not out there for that stuff so I'll stop there. I'm not sure what your goal is but I won't participate anymore.

One right does not abrogate another. Your right to privacy is absolute - in private spaces - and untenable in public, common spaces.

It already is outlawed. That it is not enforceable is a different problem.

IMO it is just missing a way to turn off quantize and then turn it back on so you can both be on the grid and also swing or be ahead/behind the beat.

As typical though with anything related to web audio, it is neat one off parlor trick to show web programming skill but isn't worth the effort.

A circle is a compact way to make a useless quantized beat but if you want to take this further it will just end up reinventing the DAW wheel timeline. Otherwise, you have to have a sequencer for the circles, and then a timeline and then just get rid of the circles and have the timeline. In other words, a piano roll.

On another level, it is the coolness but uselessness of circular data visualization.

Sure, Eratosthenes got it more accurately than Aristotle did, but Aristotle was only 5000 miles out, came before Eratosthenes (died about 50 years before Eratosthenes was born) and on the scale of a planet, with the technology he had available, I'd say thats reasonably good
I wish more people considered the ingroup/outgroup distinction described in the article in political questions.

It is hardwired into our genes, so you really want all people in your society to be part of the same ingroup.

Things which destroy a common group identity e.g. immigrants who don't assimilate or cultivation of political group identities which trump national identity tear society apart. You end up with your neighbor being part of an outgroup - a recipe for hate and violence.

If you search the page for telemetry you will notice that you have to create a non existing Registry key, under the promise many services will stop working...

Also: "Services Configuration is used by Windows components and apps, such as the telemetry service, to dynamically update their configuration. If you turn off this service, apps using this service may stop working."

But they are referring to telemetry as in updating apps metadata so using weasel words.

It just ways to manage and minimize telemetry data Windows 10 and Windows 11 send to Microsoft, focusing on settings, Group Policies, and registry configurations. It explicitly states that certain data connections,cannot be disabled. This implies that completely removing telemetry is impossible.

They are also known to re-enable these settings with each Windows Update....
If they were cathedrals, this may raise the question why those towns were perfectly aligned, in the first place.

Traditionally, it had been mostly exposed locations that were dedicated to St Michael, e.g., locations that had been alleged entrances to the underworld in antiquity. 6 out 7 of these locations are in costal areas, with corresponding erosion features. So this shouldn't be of much surprise, as the line crosses several costal regions – of which there are plenty.

(In other words, the line crosses 6 costal areas with a St Micheal nearby and 6 without. The second fact may be as remarkable as the first one.)

Edit: Challenge, can we identify a "St Michael's Serpent", approximating a sine wave?
