There's a whole set of criteria for when Wikipedia will and will not list former names for people who transition, which boils down to whether they achieved notability under the old name. Which Lynn did not.

There's a conversation to be had about whether the decisions Wikipedia has made about prior names and consistent use of pronouns in the biography of trans persons is the correct one for an encyclopedia. But this is definitely not the place or time to have that conversation.

Your point about EQ's role in speech and its unequal distribution is spot on. It underscores a significant issue: those who can't master the nuances of "acceptable" speech are getting marginalized, especially in fields like academia, journalism, politics, and now social media with this type of legislation.

Plain, straightforward speech has immense value. It promotes clarity and honesty, ensuring ideas are communicated without the need for high-EQ code. Restricting political discourse to high-EQ speech to avoid offense stifles genuine expression and hampers robust debate. This not only limits free speech but also degrades the quality of political dialogue, making it more about adhering to social norms than addressing real issues.

We need to value pluralism and strive for inclusivity in our discourse, ensuring that all voices, regardless of EQ, can be heard and respected.

Being a free speech absolutist ensures that all ideas, even those clumsily expressed, get a fair hearing. It fosters an environment where truth and innovation can thrive, unhampered by artificial constraints on how thoughts must be articulated.

Speech shouldn't require constant PR massaging to be accepted / "legal"

There is absolutely everything wrong with that if it consistently invades and drowns out the voices of the well-educated elite.

The worst tyranny in this world is the tyranny of the ignorant against the learned. In its worst form, it can lead to mob justice and other horrible things.

Yeah, microplastics seem to be systemic. I don't know that we actually have good data on this, but many sources claim that most microplastics are from polyester (a plastic) clothing and industrial nylon fishing nets. If true then wearing and washing a tacky shirt could be more hazardous that drinking from tons of plastic bottles and that would make such questions hard to ask in a predictive manner.
>is that the right standard? Or should there be an obligation to provide evidence that something is "safe" in order to use it

I agree but the FDA might not have the legal authority to ban chemicals that are already in use that haven't been proven to be harmful. That is the case with the EPA IIRC. Although I think there actually is a lot of evidence pointing towards phthalates being harmful especially in utero.
interesting, what do you mean?
I actually really like the look of this.

I've been using a dumbphone for about 6 months, with a back up smartphone for banking etc., that I try to use more like a laptop.

Recently I bought a unihertz jelly star, which is essentially a tiny android phone.

It's great, I can listen to podcasts, music, audiobooks, has a semi decent camera, android pay, but it's difficult to waste time browsing on it, as it is so small.

However I still end up spending more time than I'd like on it, compared to the actual feature phone.

The feature phone had a camera but it was really crap.
For audiobooks, podcasts etc. I could just download them onto it, so that was fine.

Not having maps, android pay, etc. could be painful at times.

I really like the look of this phone, a decent camera is really attractive.
The site is kind of light on specs.
I assume it is still AOSP.
It has 5G so I'm guessing it will be able to be used as a Wifi / USB hotspot for other devices.

The discount at 399 USD is tempting, but I'm not sure I can justify buying yet another phone!
The full price of 799 seems kinda steep to me.

The formula can be very simple and is applied to less important services.

Unless you are directly, personally, targeted no hacker will waste the time trying to reverse engineer your algorithm... they'll just go on to brute forcing the next hash in the list.

And most people only have a few services that need to be truly secure anyway, which would use non-derived passwords (if they hack your netflix or spotify, who cares? Call support and get it back)

Password managers have had many exploits/failures over the years. You introduce so many points of failures bringing in a third party.

Your gibberish password with random symbols/characters isn't any more secure than a more memorable one of a similar length.
In Hungary you can use email or phone number as well for instant transfer via standard banks (provided you add your email and phone number as a secondary ID besides your IBAN)

Building a homemade BTS (Base Transceiver Station) is easy. I remember making one back in 2011 with a USRP SDR. Nowadays, you can even create a 5G network, not just LTE. There’s plenty of good open-source software available. Paired with an SDR, you are good to go. The rest is just some scripting to automate some tasks, probably how they flooded the SMS.
Yes, provide different ways for different users to sove their own issues. Then technical people can solve the hard ones.

Current VR porn is typically 8K 60 fps at the max, which already creates HUGE files, like 500 MB/minute.
> We had all that before AI.

What AI gives us is vastly cheaper slop, so now it can be produced at a scale unimaginable to prior generations. No more paying some schmuck a penny a word to bang out "private label articles," so they were only practical as SEO. Now you can have a unique slop for every spam email, every search query!

Truly, we are making the world a better place.

Excellent post.

Unless the data model is either extremely clean or simple, users lacking deep context will struggle.

There are always tables for abstract concepts, code paths for legacy behavior, etc. Should we expect users to embed this internal business logic into their SQL queries? How do these users know when they need to change their embedded assumptions?

Shouldn't this motor have thermal overload protection that prevents it from reaching a temperature that would allow it to start a fire? I'm not sure how smart the seat moving system is, but it seems like it could also refuse to run for more than 60 seconds in a row, or incorporate limit switches or back EMF detection to stop when it reaches the end of travel.

Early Nissan Leafs. At this point, the newer used ones include battery health management, and should be similar to other used EVs.

Note that getting an old one with a dead battery makes even less sense than you'd guess: It'll burn out any replacement battery just as fast, assuming you can actually get one.
>conservatism like yours was the default stance for thousands of years, which is why human life was impoverished and short during that time.

The ridiculousness of this claim is basically self-evident. The obvious reason for impoverished and short life spans was a low level of technological development, not conversative social attitudes. It begs the question, how exactly could modern liberal attitudes even exist in an era that lacked the technology required to have a modern liberal society?

Most story structures start with exposition, i.e. the background info. However this is quite boring normally so to get you through that they often add a "hook". That's what's being suggested here. So normally a story is hook, exposition, conflict, resolution. That's what's being suggested here, just not very clearly.

In this specific case, I doubt a significant number of people would have any idea what would be "positive" in the context of risk related to phthalates...
It is fair, I don't accept attempts to mitigate. The trust is gone, and nothing can recover it. The idea of trusting government and corporations was ridiculous in the first place as these entities are not your friends.

You wouldn't expect a repeat abuser to stop abusing just because of 'time' or a marketing campaign. And yet this is the case here. People keep looking to their tormentors for solutions.

Not expecting healing from those also inflicting the trauma, ie changing one's expectations, seems like a minimum effort/engagement in my view, but it's somehow inconceivable.
While her contributions to the VLSI design methodologies are the best known and the most influential, that is because at that time she worked in academia, in plain sight.

She had another extremely important contribution much earlier, when working at IBM, at the Advanced Computer System project.

She invented the first methods that could be used for designing a CPU that can initiate multiple instructions in the same clock cycle and also out of order in comparison with the program. Such a CPU will be named only 2 decades later as a superscalar CPU (also inside IBM and by people familiar with the old ACS project). (The earlier CDC 6600 could initiate only 1 instruction per clock cycle, in program order, even if after initiation it could execute the instructions concurrently and complete them out-of-order, depending on the availability of execution units.)

Her work on superscalar CPUs did not become known until much later, because it was written in confidential internal reports about the ACS project, which was canceled, unlike the later and much less comprehensive work of Tomasulo, which was published in a journal and which was used in a commercial product, so it became the reference on out-of-order execution in the open literature, for several decades.

At the time when she worked at IBM, her legal gender was still male, and when she announced her intention of gender change, she was fired by IBM, which is likely to have contributed to the obscurity that covered her ACS work at IBM.

Her "Dynamic Instruction Scheduling" report from 1966 is mandatory reading for anyone who is interested about the evolution of the superscalar and out-of-order CPUs.

> I was equally surprised to learn that the food industry was already moving toward using fewer phthalate plasticizers already. More recent sampling efforts have actually found fewer or sometimes no phthalates at all in tubing, whereas decades ago it was ubiquitous.

IMO this is one of the more valuable comments here. Can you find any sources to cite on this?

I'd love to see more comments on the progress industries make via self-awareness rather than yet-another-villain-in-the-shadows.
Not surprising to see this, as Ivies abandoned SAT requirements (though are now reversing course) and other objective indicators that employers value. Basically, it's risky for an employer to use an IQ test to hire (they can be sued based over racial disparities that result), but they cannot be sued if they hire exclusively from schools that essentially filter by IQ.

As schools' admissions policies have become less aligned with IQ, employers have realized this and are now seeking high-IQ/performance candidates at other schools.

Kia/Hyundai have been kinda slow when it comes to rolling out the ability to update cars OTA (although I don't know if other legacy automakers are any better). I think the first model to support full OTAs was the Ioniq 6 in 2023. It's still gradually being added to other models when they get refreshed.

I do wonder how the cost of adding OTA support compares to doing software updates the old fashioned way. My Ioniq 5 can only do OTA updates for the infotainment, and when there's been recalls to perform non-infotainment software updates it's required a short dealer trip that I assume Hyundai corporate pays for. Across all of the cars they've sold, I imagine that gets expensive

> Save for military submarines and the occasional industrial accident, they’ve been extremely safe.

And even then, USN submarines are absurdly over-engineered. Or more aptly, they’re engineered to survive a massively hostile environment, even under multiple worst-case scenarios. FFS, the USS San Francisco slammed into an underwater mountain at flank speed at a depth of over 500 feet, and still managed to surface and get home under her own power. New sonar dome, ballast tanks, etc. and she was released for duty for another eight years.

This is only possible when you have multiple, redundant systems for everything.
