> Sanskrit appeared later and is often used in Mahayana traditions.

While Sanskrit was used in later Buddhist traditions, the term "dhyana" in Sanskrit predates the Buddha, as it was used in the Vedas, and a lot of Pali does seem to derive from Sanskrit (or at least, other local languages that were influenced by Sanskrit).

Now, "modern" Sanskrit and "vedic" Sanskrit can be considered two things (like English and Old English), but many of the terms used are the same, hence its influence on Pali that compare to modern Sanskrit terms.

Putting a real person in jail prevents them from going to work, so jailing a company might be sanctioning it.

The thing is, companies are composed of people, and those people can just go to another company. Real people are composed of organs, but those organs can't just move to other bodies and commit the same crimes.

So, companies are just not people and the whole idea is stupid.
Are you seriously that big brain that you think that's smart?

Your example software makes the claim that integers that the given runtime/interpreter/VM can handle will be assured as true. This was tested.

Nobody said that any description of the software is always correct, just because a test was added that tests random stuff

Also note that that's not 100% coverage. It merely covers your code, which builds upon other code.

The system can just keep track of whether the ticket has already been used before. You don't have to store the information on the ticket itself. You can store the information on a central server, connected to all the gates.

The ticket itself just has to encode an ID, and then the central database contains an entry for that ID that is checked by the gate in real time. When the ticket is scanned at a gate, the database gets updated.

The problem is that the four quantile groups contain equal numbers of items, but are not represented by equal areas, even if we replace the whiskers with a bar of the same width as the box.

The bottom whisker contains 25% of the data, yet is just a thin line, which can furthermore be arbitrarily short.

It really is a dumb visual presentation.

The only way to use it is to recover the five parameters from it, and then stop looking at it.

For that purpose, a QR code would be just as good, if not better. You'd need a device with a camera to get the parameters (but "everyone" has that now), and when you're looking at it with your bare eyes, it doesn't tell you any visual lie.
It's hard because it's conceptually and fundamentally different.

Like what about useEffect? There's many many terse ways to implement this that in practice do the same things but in a slightly, arguably inconsequentially different kind of way.

I'm sure there's a large legion of pedants out there who would have a field day slapping their suspenders against their chests nitpicking how "not exactly!" the alternatives are.

> I have never come across a Buddhist source saying that some people are inherently more advantaged than others.

That's essentially the entirety of the Buddha's teachings on karma. I haven't the time to look for sources right now, but I'm pretty sure the close disciples of the Buddha - who all had distinct and extraordinary abilities, either feats of memory or meditation - were explained to have those abilities due to intense work in past lives. Indeed, the Buddha himself didn't chance upon his enlightenment - he made a vow to do it thousands or millions of lifetimes prior, and worked towards it life by life until he was able to achieve it.
Apple currently has three sets of business terms governing its relationship with app developers, including the App Store's steering rules. The Commission preliminarily finds that:

- None of these business terms allow developers to freely steer their customers. For example, developers cannot provide pricing information within the app or communicate in any other way with their customers to promote offers available on alternative distribution channels.

- Under most of the business terms available to app developers, Apple allows steering only through “link-outs”, i.e., app developers can include a link in their app that redirects the customer to a web page where the customer can conclude a contract. The link-out process is subject to several restrictions imposed by Apple that prevent app developers from communicating, promoting offers and concluding contracts through the distribution channel of their choice.

- Whilst Apple can receive a fee for facilitating via the AppStore the initial acquisition of a new customer by developers, the fees charged by Apple go beyond what is strictly necessary for such remuneration. For example, Apple charges developers a fee for every purchase of digital goods or services a user makes within seven days after a link-out from the app.

[edit] I will add one thing: right now, i'm rich enough that i wouldn't care about paying 30% less if it saves me the hassle of using a new payment processor, and i think this is the case for most people here, or even most people using Apple phones. But 10 years ago when i was scraping by, i had a phone that was given to me (not an iphone, but it could have been), and i would totally do everything i could to save 33% on anything (mostly food tbh). T=Not allowing link out and price discovery is not only anti-market, it's anti-poor.
I went to a buy.

Hermes gives you 24 hours to go into the store and buy the item. Otherwise the bag goes to the next buyer on the rolodex.

Buyers call their friends and make it into an event. They’re literally giddy and excited to go. It’s like winning the lottery.

You’re ushered into a private room with nice couches, mirrors, a phone. You choose a scarf and wrap the scarf around the strap.

Buyers text their sales rep almost daily.

In a way it’s like a drop in the NFT space.

I chose Centos Stream 8 over Centos 8 because I figured that the stream version's rolling updates would result in a later EOL. When Red Hat announced the unexpectedly short EOL for 8 I was glad for my choice. That said, what has Red Hat said about an EOL for Stream, if any?
Ethernet was designed like this :-)

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_802.2

Back in the olden times, the Windows 3.11 and Windows 95 could even run services atop it using another protocol: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/NetBIOS_Frames

In fact, the link layer protocols that dealt with congestion and access to media more meticulously, eg Token Ring or FDDI, were generally much more efficient with the use of the media - using near 100% of the potential bandwidth, whereas Ethernet on a shared medium already gets quite inefficient at 30-40% utilization due to retries caused by collisions.

However, the trade off between additional complexity (and thus bigger cost and difficulty of troubleshooting) was such that the much simpler and dumber Ethernet has won.

However, a lot of similar principles are there in Fibre Channel family protocols, which are still used in some data center-specific protocols.
On the top of my head, the major features to come are:

* Compile to WASM

* Parametric modules (OCaml functors)

* Structural (as opposed to nominal) unions

* Improvements to the Ports (FFI) mechanism while still retaining purity

* Actors(?)

* Support more builtin Browser and NodeJS APIs out of the box

Ok, but usually, as we've seen, *gestures around*, the problem with the American justice system is if _theres a lot of crooks_, it absolutely just tries to normalize what the crooks are doing.

There's obviously no scape goat in Boeing. IT's systemically corrupt, which means Americans will happily try to make it look like that's normal and reasonable and "the best we can do". If not outright find the most dull, corrupt white guy and hold him up as a paragon of the perfect saint.

Note that "insight" meditation without Samadhi/Jhana practice is sometimes called "dry insight", and a lot of "insight" focused teachers still emphasize Smadhi/Jhana as an important part of practice.

Also note that generally, traditional Buddhism tends to see building virtue in everyday life as a necessary prerequisite for meditation. You can be a lay Buddhist by being virtuous but not meditating, but not the other way around. A lot of people in our western culture tend to approach it the other way, with meditation as the defining practice and virtue as a secondary thought. I remember hearing of a meditation teacher who loved to start meditation retreats by saying something like "most of you would probably benefit more from hosting a family of refugees, rather than coming to a silent retreat", which would upset quite a few participants. If you want to ground this in meditation, practices such as "loving kindness" meditation are very helpful, and can help overcome/avoid a dark night.

There are also other more "modern" "traditions" (if you can call something that is at most a few decades old a tradition) that can help deepening insight into emptiness _while_ also increasing a sense of wonder and respect for the world, rather than falling into nihilism. I am in particular thinking in Rob Burbea's "Soulmaking Dhamma". To summarize it, he proposes that, given the insight that there is no reality without a "way of looking" (his way to summarize emptiness), it is not only OK to embrace a way of looking, but we have flexibility in doing so - and switching between such ways of looking in this way helps deepen insight into emptiness, rather than lead to delusion.

This does not make immune to feelings of confusion and grief, but can help work with them. Also note I am by no way a spiritual teacher, and what helped me might not help you.
Haven't checked 2024 one, but previous ones were borked by Qualcomm essentially missing bits of ACPI runtime handling, EFI variable storage not actually existing at runtime, and Qualcomm papering over it in Windows with drivers that hijacked the proper interfaces.

Apple's app-store policies are anti-competitive. Even though they recently 'allowed' (How kind of them) publishers to create a link to an external form of payment, where the offer may be better, Apple still demands a significant slice of commission.

I think many users would continue to use in-app purchases as it is a convenient way to pay, but the actions from Apple are poor and heavily restrictive. To save yourself some money, if subscribing, always go to the website, you'll get a better offer than within the app and more of your money will go to the publisher.
It’s all bloody Elon Musk’s fault.

Apple will do a lot to keep this cash cow at peak performance.
The idea that an operation of Boeing’s size would not have the resources or wherewithal to spot check their suppliers on this sort of thing is just silly. The folks squeezing Boeing’s margins should know their suppliers are doing the same thing, and be suspicious of them. Either those folks were in on it with the suppliers or they just didn’t care about their own product’s quality. I’m not sure which I think is more likely. But either explanation is criminal negligence for this type of product.

the coincidence between the author and the "atleast" date simply means there's not enough evidence before that date. Dealing with EPA and other pollution control agencies will tell you very much they dont want to get into these situations because it makes them look bad.

Lua is perfect for Redbean because it's tiny and made for embedding, which is this exactly use case. Something like TypeScript would require a transpiler to JS and a JS runtime, which as far as I know, even the smallest one would be much bigger than Lua. And Lua has well defined semantics to call C and be called by C, which may be hard to do with JS/TS.

Here's some context which a lot of people, including most news media, seem to have missed:

The reason Apple is still playing games with the EC is that they're waiting on an EU Court's ruling[1] on whether Article 6 (7), the provision that mandates free of charge iOS APIs for all developers, is "constitutional" within the EU framework itself.

Most people who call out the Core Technology Fee use that provision as one of their main arguments, and it's one of their strongest, because the "free of charge" language throws away the general idea that the law doesn't want to interfere with Apple's monetization strategies. Since Apple could very well have chosen to monetize certain local API access in the past, the fact that this provision put a stop to that effectively nullifies Apple's argument (to the courts) that the law could never have meant to actually control how they make money.

They were convinced it was a non-issue.

From experience with government contracts, aircraft certifications, and listening to directors speak, they will tell people whatever needs to be said to get the airplane to pass a final check to get a certification.

One exchange I overheard with some details changed:
>you will get a warning light here but this is the end of the fiscal and we need to ship airplanes. It will break on landing then take one week to get the replacement part and we have the maintenance contract anyways. By then we will do the work to fix the issue before anyone else actually flies this aircraft. You can retest it before final delivery and you will also get a bonus or we have more test pilots who hate being drone pilots.
This is ridiculous. The EU has a complete axe to grind against Apple, for reasons that I believe border on corruption (if not, veer completely into it). Meanwhile, Meta has a near-monopoly on social networking in the Western world and is subject to a slap on the wrist at best.

Helle Thorning-Schmidt, one of the best friends of the current EU Commissioner for Competition, Margrethe Vestager, is currently on Meta's payroll. For this reason alone, the current EU Competition Commissioner should recuse herself from being involved in this role. There are other reasons, including direct conversations I have had with co-founders of Meta regarding EU commissioners, that cause me to have very little faith in these people to act fairly, or to do little other than carry out Meta's very long agenda to be able to ride on top of Apple's platform and deliver their own App Store with their own currency (remember Facebook Credits, anyone?) and completely replace iMessage etc for people who live within the mass-scale dystopia that is the Facebook-Instagram-WhatsApp Industrial Complex.

Meta is a total monopoly that causes daily harm to society, and yet this is what the EU finds itself obsessed with. These people should be ashamed of themselves. And, they should release the records of every meeting and every communication they have with Meta and its various lobbyists, and the children/spouses of these people (because they love using the family connection to avoid scrutiny, as evidenced by their hiring of various congresspeople's children in roles that make no sense).

The main theoretical idea behind mitochondrial dysfunction is that it is a root cause of many mental health issues : depression, bipolar syndrome, migraine, alzheimer (aka type 3 diabete)... even schizophrenia.

These are not dead neurone so it is reversible if you can bring back healthy mitochondria... Part of it is done through mitophagy and mitogenesis induced by fasting/ keto therapy.
