> There’s tons of Biden voters in federalist society because it’s not like Trump is much of a rule follower.

This assumes that the Federalist Society cares about rule followers. It is after all the folks that gave Trump the short list of names with Gorsuch and Kavanaugh, after McConnell refused to give Garland even a hearing.

What was the position of the Federalist Society on Garland's situation? Especially since Barrett was appointed just before an election.

What is your position as to why Garland was not even given the time of day but Barrett was?
Even if the stands are far away, even light years away, you pan through 360° every year. The fact that the background is far away means that it moves even quicker relative to a nearby object in a rotational frame.

If you spin around in a circle, hold your hand out and look at it, it will be moving very quickly against a distant background, like the horizon.

My point is that the distance to the background helps detection, not hurts it. If the background was nearby and co-rotating around the Sun, detection would be a near impossible.

The example supplied is what I was trying to get at.

An empty dependency array means that the effect runs only once on mount. Same with memos and callbacks -- the value should remain stable. Here's a real world example of how I populate some state based on url query params:

https://github.com/Naught0/combinator/blob/master/frontend/s...

I may end up using a more robust routing solution to keep in sync with query params if I ever want to spend the effort, but this is a naive solution that works alright.

A more simplified, generic example could be:

const [foo, setFoo] = useState();
useEffect(() => {
setFoo("bar");
}, []); // The eslint rule wants setFoo here despite the value being stable
Thank you for freeing me from one of my to-do projects. I wanted to do a similar autoencoder with optimisations. Did you write about it anywhere? I'd love to read the details.
I've been thinking about it. AI generated videos. It could be generating a DSL or IR for some sort of multimedia VM so there's only a tiny fraction of data. Just common textures and shapes in a CDN. Could be fully interactive.

I wouldn't be surprised if most of it was already tried in some form.
Standing doesn’t matter. A conservative website creator was able to take a case all the way up to the Supreme Court without ever have been sued. They just made up a situation where an alleged customer demanded they make a gay website. The customer never even existed. This is on top of the Supreme Court literally legalizing bribing of government officials across the country as long as the payment is made after the favor and not before. Then it’s just a gratuity and not a bribe. The entire system is rotten at this point.
Ah, a chance to wheel out one of my favourite quotes ever.

> Jim Buckmaster, the chief executive of Craigslist, caused lots of head-scratching Thursday as he tried to explain to a bunch of Wall Street types why his company is not interested in “monetizing” his ridiculously popular Web operation. Appearing at the UBS global media conference in New York, Mr. Buckmaster took questions from the bemused audience, which apparently could not get its collective mind around the notion that Craigslist exists to help Web users find jobs, cars, apartments and dates — and not so much to make money.

> Wendy Davis of MediaPost describes the presentation as a “a culture clash of near-epic proportions.” She recounts how UBS analyst Ben Schachter wanted to know how Craigslist plans to maximize revenue. It doesn’t, Mr. Buckmaster replied (perhaps wondering how Mr. Schachter could possibly not already know this). “That definitely is not part of the equation,” he said, according to MediaPost. “It’s not part of the goal.”

It's part of the polarization of politics over the past few decades where the ends justify the means and the sooner the better. People have given up on understanding underlying principles, let alone believing they are necessary for good long-term outcomes. One can even argue many have given up on the long-term entirely in favour of instant gratification of their demands for societal change .

You can see that even in this very discussion where a substantial fraction of the comments are making claims that this ruling will prevent regulation entirely -- a claim entirely unsupported by the principles in question.

A complementary strategy is to relentlessly name and shame the backward cultures that compose this shitheadedness.

So say it with me: Chinese* traditional medicine is backwards and primitive. Chinese ivory buyers are a shameful stain upon humanity.

* The Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) reports that nearly all of the current demand for elephant ivory comes from the Chinese market.

The topic of a “living will” came up in a family discussion after my mother’s funeral.

None of us have a pathological desire to live at all costs, but as it turns out, figuring out when to say “yeah I’m done, see yah” and halt treatment is way more complex than it first seems, especially when making the decision for someone else. Things can happen very fast, and there’s a bunch of things that basically require a job in the industry to know ahead of time.

If anyone knows of some comprehensive resources for helping define reasonable limits, I’d love to hear it.
Judges are Article III, and the need for them laid out explicitly in the text of the Constitution itself.

Chevron deference, and the corpus of administrative law unsubject to judicial review it spawned, most decidedly is not.

That makes judges a bit more of a fixture in the grand scheme of things than all these "agencies" running their own pseudo-courts so that Congress critters can spend their tenure voting one another pay raises, and insider trading among themselves.

>it's manifestly not on federal judges to say "oh no, you can only do that in a way that lets us judges have the dominant seat at the table."

Actually, it manifestly is on the judiciary to say that. If Congress started adding clauses to legislation to the tune of "this law is not subject to judicial review", the judiciary is fully within it's rights as outlined by the Constitution to strike down the law, as the Legislature, by definition, cannot produce a thing with force of law contradicting a limitation placed on it by the Constitution short of another Constitutional Amendment + the requisite ratifications. An unconstitutional law, is no law at all. The issue of constitutionality is purely the realm of the judiciary. No one else. You can change what the Judiciary looks like; but you can't structurally usurp it's powers under the Constitution.

There is a reason Jefferson and Madison were really nervous about how the judiciary ended up playing out in practice though.

Yes, that's exactly how it works. The US Supreme Court can rule a law unconstitutional, and that's that.
I would think that at this point bringing the astronauts back on a Dragon capsule and a thorough fix before the next Boeing attempt makes more sense than a rushed series of ground tests that may or may not reveal the problem. The capsule could even be put to good use, for example perhaps testing the limits of its reentry system.
Kind of a tough read, I just turned 37 and this was the year when it really hit home that your body degrades and sometimes it never goes back to "normal". I was used to sports injuries being a pattern of injury -> recovery -> ramp back up to 100%, but have suffered some injuries recently and am coming to terms with realizing I will never return to 100%. They will be lingering things I deal with for the rest of my life.

It is terrifying transitioning from seeing health as innate to viewing it as something you need to carefully nurture or it will slip away.

Usually at smaller companies with just a handful of developers. Can be a "start-up", or just a smaller business running fine with small teams. Or sometimes in a larger company where there's a small team doing its own thing.

There's up-and-downsides to everything. The pay is usually less, and "fewer processes" often also means fewer processes surrounding HR and such. This can mean you're subject to the whims and mood swings of one person. I was once fired over a pretty far-fetched misunderstanding, but 1) they didn't mention it because "I should know myself", so I didn't really have a chance to clear it up, and 2) when I got fired they agreed it was a complete misunderstanding and that they made a huge mistake, but fired me anyway because that was the road already taken now. Great ... thanks ... It's hard to imagine that happening at a larger company with an actual HR department and stuff.

Also: a Wikipedia-esque "be bold" attitude helps. Obviously refactoring things just for the craic isn't a good idea, but if there's something that can really make an impact then I'd just do it and send a PR, regardless of what I've been assigned. Obviously "refactor everything" on your own initiative isn't a good idea, but usually there's tons of smaller stuff that really helps: "introduce new function/package that helps reduce boiler plate", "split up this difficult to understand function", things like that.

Most PMs will realize they don't have a 100% in-depth understanding of the code, and will trust you when you say it helps you do your work better. Usually it's fine as long as you apply proper judgement and don't spend too much time on it. That said, there are some places where this really isn't appreciated regardless. IMHO that's pretty dysfunctional and when I start looking for somewhere else to work.

> E.g., in A.L.A. Schechter Poultry Corp. v. United States, 295 U.S. 495 (1935) the Supreme Court said "Congress is not permitted to abdicate or to transfer to others the essential legislative functions with which it is thus vested." See also J.W. Hampton v. United States, 276 U.S. 394 (1928).

If you want to talk about precedent, 1825:

> It will not be contended that Congress can delegate to the Courts, or to any other tribunals, powers which are strictly and exclusively legislative. [23 U.S. 1, 43] But Congress may certainly delegate to others, powers which the legislature may rightfully exercise itself.

Well to be fair there are two arguments, one is that you can't use normal commonplace phrasing to describe something that's at odds with the 'normal'; the other is that in a publish-or-perish academic world each new generation of thinkers invents a new jargon to differentiate themselves from their predecessors (and keep their jobs). Not that both couldn't be simultaneously true, but I think it's a little too cheeky to say they're making it up for no reason at all.
The amount of "suckage" in case it would hit Earth is mentioned in the article:

> Fortunately, it won't impact Earth. But it would be a bad day if it did. "This is a big object. An object of this size is going to have the equivalent impact energy in the hundreds of megaton approaching a gigaton," Brown said. "That'd be a regional impact. It's the sort of thing that if it hit the east coast of the U.S., you would have catastrophic effects over most of the eastern seaboard. But it's not big enough to affect the whole world."
Little known fact: Congress can actually legislate around that by removing the possibility of judicial review from the law itself.
Libc++ Hardening Modes
...and it's getting harder on the families too with nothing to really address it. It used to be one day you'd drop dead, or get really sick and be dead not long after, and your family after a terrible shock could begin readjusting to the new reality without their loved one. Now you can have what used to be a death sentence and continue living for years or even decades. But the systems which support the patient's life are not supporting their families, who have to live with the stress and financial burden of keeping their loved one alive, and the prolonged grieving process which can now take up a huge chunk of their lives and still doesn't really prepare them for death anyway.

I'm not saying that we need to get rid of medical advances that prolong life, it's just that these things have created new problems that we aren't dealing with and that not many people are really talking about.

Yes. It is what ultimatum means, because they can no longer flout the law without punishment.

They are "members of the public". That doesn't mean they can unilaterally dictate the laws of society. If they were "the public", then they could just change the law. I wonder why they can't? Because most people don't want anyone setting up their household in a public park.

It depends how you define the market. If there is one market for phone hardware, and a separate market for app stores, then they’re illegally bundling them and using their position in the phone market to anti-competitively win in the app store market.

If you define the App Store as a component of the phone (which Microsoft tried to do and failed with their OS and Internet Explorer) then they’re fine.
>Because ambiguous rules would have to be decided on anyway

I think the implication by the OP was that they would now have to be decide by the court instead of by the executive branch agencies. Previously, those agency decisions could be brought to the court, but they didn't have to for an interpretation. That seems like a subtle but important nuance.
Arguing stare decisis was invalid when the reasoning behind even hearing the case is ideological was necessary- it essentially is the only reasoning they could make.

My random thoughts on this:

- Is the math referring to the center of gravity as the singularity? Because even a sub black hole mass object would have that.

- Why is there an assumption that just after a mass becomes a black hole the matter inside it suddenly compresses further when the actual gravity of the object has only slightly increased?

- Is there a maximum density of matter in the universe and if the black hole even reaches that?

- Wouldn't you need that number to be infinite if the black hole itself is infinitely small?

- If the black hole does have a mass inside it... Do the light particles trapped inside the black hole form a blanket around the existing matter?
When you write something on the internet, you automatically obtain a copyright on it.

Copyright provides the exclusive rights to reproduce, adapt, publish, perform, and display that thing.

Training an AI model isn't any of those things.

If you transmit a thing to me, and I have those bits on my computer, you don't get to determine that I can't train an AI on it, unless we signed an agreement further restricting my use prior to you transmitting it to me.

Now. My AI might produce a work that is sufficiently similar to your work that it is considered a reproduction or adaptation, but that doesn't mean that the training was an infringement.

Also, courts have repeatedly held that webscraping is entirely legal.

If you don't want folks (or their computers) learning from things you create, don't put them on the internet.

NOW for the hilarious follow-on: Copyright is not granted for the results of an automatic process. Training an AI is an automatic process, and it's plausible that attempting to claim copyright on model weights would fail if it were litigated fully. It's more likely they'd qualify for trade secret protection.

Not everyone gets even that - I've had mobility issues since I was seven years old. It's been strange to realize that it probably shaped my personality somewhat; I always felt older than my peers in some way.

No, it’s to decide cases and controversies [1]. Deciding on constitutionality flows from that.
