I've found there's a dark connection between the positive thinking movement and multilevel marketing. Virtually all of the "teachers" mentioned in The Secret, for instance, serve on the MLM motivational-speaking circuit, and those who don't have side scams of their own.

Motivational speaking as a thing fizzled out except among MLMs, as people realized that the only honest motivational speaker was Chris Farley's character Matt Foley, and the motivational message did not result in the expected productivity gains among legit companies. But for keeping suckers in a pyramid scheme they are effective, because those people have already proven willing to delude themselves into believing in something that won't materialize.
This demonstrates where the court is drawing the lines. Fascist dictatorships are fine, so long as they keep their mitts away from private industry. Of course, at this point, who is going to stop the President if he starts seizing companies?

This ruling is like telling a hungry leopard, "you can eat anyone except for us." The hubris of this ruling is absurd. American's President Jinping won't be a Federalist.

IT Automation Engineer here, on the lookout for opportunities to build something great. Happy to send an updated résumé to interested parties!
let me know if you got more. Will open the wachtlist and screener during this week. thanks david
Hi there! the links to the roles are giving me a page not found error. I was interested in the infra one, but all the links give the same error.
Perhaps, but great from the "everyone knows the issue" point of view :D 2016 is far enough back I suppose there are going to be devs who don't know the reference (they've never had the pleasure of IE support, more's the pity)
They are partially defined, and the example given is part of the partial definition.
I see what you're saying thanks. Deleted to avoid causing confusion.
I have a hard time imagining a situation where you'd need Sixel images in a corporate setting.
On paper it makes sense. The people elect a congress charged with checking the powers of the President. States can also pass constitutional amendments to further limit or define the powers of the President.

In reality, power can be consolidated to the point where these checks and balances no longer work properly.
> If he commits murder... that's not an official act.

Not true, it depends on how he does it. If he hacks someone to death with a sword, that's not an official act, and it doesn't matter why he does it. But if he orders Seal Team 6 to assassinate a political rival, that is an official act. This example is specifically stated in the dissenting opinion.

> things that are on the extreme periphery of the duties of the Presidency are exempt from criminal prosecution

This is wrong, and your ability to make an argument suggests you know it is. And the most extreme acts being mentioned as risks are the exact ones where "presumptive" matters.
I don't know how I feel about this paper: on the one hand, I agree with the sentiment that the relational data model is the natural end state if you keep adding features to a data system (and it perfectly captures my sentiment about vector DBs) and it's silly to not use SQL out of the gate.

On the other hand, the paper is kind of dismissive about engineering nuance and gets some details blatantly wrong.

- MapReduce is alive and well, it just has a different name now (for Googlers, that name is Flume). I'm pretty confident that your cloud bill - whether or not you use GCP, AWS, or Azure, is powered by a couple hundred, if not thousand, of jobs like this.

- Pretty sure anyone running in production has a hard serving dependency on Redis or Memcache _somewhere_ in their stack, because even if you're not using it directly, I would bet that one of your cloud service providers uses a distributed, shared-nothing KV cache under the hood.

- The vast majority of software is not backed by a truly serializable ACID database implementation.

-- MySQL's default isolation level has internal consistency violations[1] and its DDL is non-transactional.

-- The classic transaction example of a "bank transfer" is hilariously mis-representative - ACH is very obviously not implemented using an inter-bank database that supports serializable transactions.

-- A lot of search applications - I would venture to say most - don't need transactional semantics. Do you think Google Search is transactional? Or GitHub code search?

From my experience in manned operations, you're basically only given a target, not the details.

Based on that, I would assume the targeter did not know whom they were targeting. Or they did, knew the orders came from the National Command Authority[1] (Eg. POTUS) and did it anyway. I would have.

I live in one and it is useless to me as well so don't be too sad.
But in many cases, that answer would be BS. Lots of people have been laid off from their jobs, and would be happy with any job in their field that allows them to feed their family and pay their rent. Their primary objective might not be to grow their career or compensation, just to quickly find a job that pays enough and doesn't suck too much. And if their skills didn't match the ones you needed, they would have never progressed to the point of getting an interview with you, so there's really nothing new to be learned from that answer.

Part of this is abdication and dysfunction of the government overall. As I remember it, the argument was that Roe was based on faulty caselaw. If so, I have no problem with it being overruled, but I then expect Congress to pass the correct law to take its place.

The problem isn't that Roe was overturned - it's that our legislative system is so dysfunctional that law is being settled in the other branches of government.

Yes but... modern 8051 has grossly different peripherals / drivers than the original.

Most of your code / effort will be in getting these peripherals to work. A ton of microcontroller programming is a simple if(voltage>0.5V) then {setup peripherals to do Y}.

In fact, voltage > 0.5V is a peripheral (aka: the Analog Comparator + DAC loopback) on most uCs today. So in practice its:

"If (analog comparator) then {do Y}".

Except "if analog comparator" is itself an interrupt that you put into the interrupt table, so that the processor can sleep for minimum power usage. So really its all just configuration of interrupt table handlers, configuration of various peripherals, and then a massive amounts of sleep.
> Official act isn't defined, so it doesn't say that.

It is and isn't, which is the problem.

> Your last paragraph is closer to accurate, except a president doesn't just "appoint" a judge. They have to be voted in by the senate. So, if the president is a crook and nominates a crook and the senate is full of crooks and vote yes to have said crook become a judge, then yes really bad stuff can happen. But if the president is a crook and the majority of the senate are crooks, it's already all over.

They more or less do appoint. There's never going to be a judge voted on that doesn't push a President's viewpoint, particularly not in the last thirty years. If a system doesn't take into consideration this particular contingency, it wasn't a very good system, was it?

this looks like something i could host for the community, but wayback is having issues letting me look at more than just the page you linked. If you remember anything about the architecture or how the data was portrayed/displayed, email me at my webzone (i just updated my profile).

It looks like it was manually vetted, which i could not do for the community. i could see it being gamified or otherwise attacked, and i'm loathe to say it but LLM+RAG and a way for users to flag records might suffice to start.

In fact, what might be easier is a fediverse bot or similar that is both input from users to a job posting URL, as well as posting automatically vetted "excluded in <territory>" that's backed by an rss feed of a simple LIFO index page. That way you get the best of all three worlds for the UI and i don't have to set up email.

That logic is so twisted though.

"The President might ignore laws on term limits, so we need to make laws that say he can't be held responsible for his actions".

That's clearly insane.
> I'm not sure if there are any databases that do your 'with a lot of care' option

LMDB springs to mind.

> LMDB was designed to resist data loss in the face of system and application crashes. Its copy-on-write approach never overwrites currently-in-use data. Avoiding overwrites means the structure on disk/storage is always valid, so application or system crashes can never leave the database in a corrupted state.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lightning_Memory-Mapped_Databa...
I think this particular ruling gets it really wrong, though.

For a president to be able to conduct "official acts" in self interest, with no obvious limits, is quite concerning.

I think the president should enjoy a weak presumption that official acts are legitimate. But this goes way too far-- prohibiting consideration of motives, prohibiting using them as context or evidence in any other proceeding, and appearing to classify what would be horrible abuses as official acts.
> What part of the Constitution are we ignoring?

Drone strikes on foreign targets are most analogous to the historical practice of issuing “letters of marque and reprisal,” which allowed private actors (privateers) to act on behalf of the state to take out pirates.

Issuing such letters is an enumerated power of Congress, not the Presidency. So if the President does so unilaterally, they are acting outside their Constitutional authority.

The risks of abuse to military power are real and significant, which is why the power was placed in the body closest to the people - so that such actions would be consistent with the public will.

No, it's not. Because contradictions exist (is it official when it's unconstitutional? Is it official because it's mentioned in the constitution?) and are not yet resolved.
Aside Roman empire not being the original fascists, the fact that you portray the roman empire with its thousand years history as fascists is a twitter level take.
> 'Official act' does not currently have a legal definition. It isn't defined in this majority opinion and it hasn't been given a definition previously.

It sounds like it does, from the majority opinion:

> The President enjoys no immunity for his unofficial acts, and not everything the President does is official. The President is not above the law. But Congress may not criminalize the President’s conduct in carrying out the responsibilities of the Executive Branch under the Constitution. And the system of separated powers designed by the Framers has always demanded an energetic, independent Executive. The President therefore may not be prosecuted for exercising his core constitutional powers, and he is entitled, at a minimum, to a presumptive immunity from prosecution for all his official acts.

So it sounds like "official acts" means an act "exercising his core constitutional powers."

Will executives reduce their compensation packages accordingly?
Prosecutors have wide ranging discretion, our laws are complex and subject to a tremendous amount of interpretation.

Without protection the executive would be at the mercy of the judicial branch. This is clearly an inversion of power.

Perhaps the solution is clean out our legal system wholesale so that it is obvious to all involved whether an action or set of actions could not result in prosecution in the future. Such an action was not within the power of the supreme court.
That's a fair concern, with a live cow you at least know what you're getting.

Yes, there are laws about not picking up shit after dogs and they apply to rich people who get ticketed and sued for that, don't use your imagination, use Google to check basic facts about the real world.

No, gentrification is not "equivalent" to camping, look it up.

Laws are unequal by definition, why would anybody had two equal laws? Laws are different and not equal to each other. It's irrelevant to the topic of the discussion where you obviously understand that we do indeed punish actions and not poverty but since you like the quote so much you are desperately trying to move the discussion into the one about how being rich is easy. Yes it is. People would rather be rich than poor. If you spend more time thinking and less time imagining you might stumble upon the casual relationship between doing things that are punished and being poor and doing things that are rewarded and being rich.

Many TUIs (text user interface) with multiple operations will show one bar reach 100% and move onto the next process (or show multiple in parallel).

If the UI automatically transitions to a totally new screen after completion, I'm never going to see 100% anyways, unless the app does the exact infuriating thing in TFA, which is render 100% (at 99.whatever) and then do some fsync/cleanup and actually be frozen showing 100% which is the contrapositive of oddly satisfying, it's unsurprisingly unsatisfying.
> I'd answer your questions and cite stuff like World Bank, WHO, UNICEF and UNESCO reports and findings

Are you referring to suffering? I wasn't so much disputing your claim as suggesting that it was far too vague to make an intelligent comment either way. Surely, though, you must admit that some things sometimes get worse? That our earthly existence is not a magical uniform stairway to heaven but rather, to use a different analogy, like a series of peaks and valleys, punctuated by the occasional pieces of rock falling from the sky?

> FWIW, I do have no ill will towards you, I still pay (and will continue to, on its merit) for your excellent software, and wish you the best, whether you choose to believe it or not.

I believe that you wish me the best. I have no objection to that. However, I don't believe that you know what's best for me, and in general I strongly object to unsolicited advice, especially from strangers. It should also be noted that my online writing is just one small portion of myself.

Ah, to pirouette upon the fractal edge of our collective metacognition, like a quantum jester juggling Schrödinger's punchlines!

Indeed, our cybernetic sojourn through the noosphere leads us to ponder: can the digital agora, that grand bazaar of bits and memes, transmute the base metal of click-commerce into the philosopher's stone of genuine epistemic enrichment? (Use the infinite scroll, Neo!)

The answer to the modified question where "commerce" is replaced by "cat GIFs" is trivially true, as evidenced by the inexorable rise of feline-based attention economies. The intersection of LOLcats and Kantian imperatives is more than mythical -- it is the very substrate of this website's collective unconscious.

So, we find ourselves navigating the three estates of ongoing human concerns, not just in the microcosm of our browser tabs, but also as the object of digital zen, practiced by the human macroorganism on its own user interface.

To paraphrase: can the lords of viral content (as guardians of engagement metrics) be Friends with the lords of ad-tech (as the de facto guardians of monetization)?

That's irrelevant since the SCOTUS ruling is all about what happens after a president is no longer president.

It doesn't matter. In the case where the president is using military force against political opponents it doesn't matter what the law says anyway.
I strongly believe that the amount of ironing they have to do for that crossplatform toolkit takes more time than just going with a common core and different UI shells.

There is only a mandate for how the electoral votes cast by states determine who becomes president, but now how states cast those votes.

Some states cast them all for the popular winner in that state. Some split them proportionately among the top scoring candidates. Some states have agreed to a pact that, if enacted by enough states, will switch those states to casting their votes for the national popular vote winner.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Popular_Vote_Intersta....

In theory a state could hold ranked choice votes among any number of candidates and cast their electoral votes for the final ranked choice winner.

Even the primary system is something managed at the state level.

So a lot could be done but it requires changing state laws or potentially state constitutions.
