> Most of our rockets use liquid propellants.

Which ones? As far as I know the US only has solid fuel nuclear armed missiles. The Minuteman and the Trident.

> others on mobile launchers, shorter range missiles deployed in Europe (eg MRBMs in Turkey),

The US only has aircraft dropped bombs in Europe. The US retired their nuclear capable rockets and cruise missiles under the INF treaty in 1988. They retired their nuclear artillery etc at the end of the Cold War.

The (liquid fuelled) Jupiter missiles were removed from Turkey in 1962 after the Cuban missile crisis, in exchange for the USSR removing their nukes from Cuba, though there are still US nukes in Turkey.

> Also, a lot of these weapons will be thernonuclear

All of them are.

Oh, so you cheated people out of their money. That's not cool.
Yeah so you go to the toilet in the morning, then you walk around the rest of the day smearing particles of feacal matter between your thighs and butt cheeks, messing up your underwear, smelling, irritating your skin. Hell, what happens if you go for a run after, sweaty ass combined with faecal matter and that sweat then running down your legs. Lovely stuff!
If you're going to try this hard to be flippant on a serious topic, you could at least be funny. Otherwise you're just making noise.

They claimed there was bloc voting based on non-literary critera and responded by definitely bloc voting for non-literary criteria.

I've read ~half the winners from 1960-1980, and a slightly larger proportion from 2000-2020. I found the more recent novels had more interesting concepts and vastly improved writing. The quality overall has increased significantly. Pretty painful to try to read eg Asimov nowadays
UBI is the risk in question, and the economics ARE terrible. The average US income is ~$37K and that includes workers. How does that stack up with expectations for UBI, given that it would take 100% socialization of income to reach that level of UBI.
None of these seem particularly difficult, as long as the person answering isn't trying to blurt out the first number that pops in their head as fast as possible.

Their conclusion after the first question:

Patients really seems like the main thing being tested here. 2 and 3 are also pretty common brain teaser questions, so it can simply be a matter of exposure to them.

> Every time I try to book direct “because it’s best” I easily spend triple the time

I have a similar experience. As a result, I have not booked a flight directly on the carrier's website in years. Do only suckers use the carrier's website now, because the prices and/or service are always worse? Sigh.
I have ended up with something very similar. Restic/rclone is awesome combo. https://bobek.cz/restic-rclone/

This should be required reading.
> if you want to e.g. have a generic function of e.g. (T,U,V) -> V type (that is, with no monomorphization in your compiler) then either your units have to take space (otherwise the layout of (unit,int,bool) is different from (int,int,bool) and the same), or you'll have to pass around type descriptors when invoking generic functions.

You have that problem already though surely, as T might be bigger than an int, or want to be passed in a floating-point register, or both.
Yeah, the 20 core Intels are benchmarking about the same as the 12 core AMD X3Ds. But many people just see 20>12. Either one is more than fine for most people.

"Oh wait, it's really an 8 core when it comes to performance [cores]". So yes, should not be an 8 core all together, but like you said about 14 cores, or 12 with the 3D cache.

"And I doubt those cores have a higher clock."

I'm not sure what we're comparing them to. They should be capable of higher clock than the E cores. I thought all the AMD cores had the ability to hit the max frequency (but not necessarily at the same time). And some of the cores might not be able to take advantage of the 3D cache, but that doesn't limit their frequency, from my understanding.
Yeah now that I think about it I realize how many times I've said that to people.
> "..where software is critical to them continuing to make that money.."

Having worked in the finance world, where the wheels are made out of software at this point, I never got the feeling that the old guard that still ran the place fully understood how crucial software was to their business, and how much it saved in labour costs.

The software department was generally seen as a cost center, with the salaries and outsourcing of projects reflecting that.

So I agree with the sentiment, just saying it doesn't always hold up.

Ranked-choice voting does exactly as you say, increasing the diversity of candidates (because no vote is ever "wasted").
I don't argue with any of that, you know. But we do have a historical (stupid in retrospect) split between functions and procedures, dating a-a-a-all the way back to ALGOL 60 at least.
> I booked a flight directly on Google Flights

Does anyone else have the experience where 25-50% of the click-here-to-buy from Google Flights just don't work? Is it bait-and-switch from the carrier?

> There's not really a unified "anti-trans movement", as different people have different reasons for opposing this.

Sure, lots of factions there but the GOP makes trans fear-mongering a cornerstone of their platform: over 600 anti-trans laws in the past 10 years (https://translegislation.com/learn). I haven't bothered to check but, I wager that virtually all of them were put forth by politicians with an R by their name.

> But one of these reasons for rejecting the ideology of "trans" is because it's homophobic.

Ideology of trans? Is it like a mutation of the communist virus?

And speaking of mutations, bravo on twisting my statement on homophobia into some squirrelly critique that justifies your fears.

Regardless, my statement stands that this fear of yours (and others) has been weaponized and politicized very effectively but is ultimately on the wrong side of history.

Again, I have no literal or figurative skin in this game, other than living in a world where ignorance and hate have been weaponized.
It would be cool if this was true, but no, Stremio does not seed cached files.

...why?

We'd still have modern computers and stuff. Dropping productivity wouldn't revert technology itself. So if you ask people "Do you want the same amount of housing and clothes and cars and services you could get back in 1994, but while working 4 days a week instead of 5?" what's the horrifying factor that makes them say no?
A website is a Presentation of Self extended to artwork and 2D media.

What is a Presentation of Self? It comes the book The Presentation of Self in Everyday Life by Erving Goffman.

The two primary senses of humans are sight and vision. If you take the time to write down and enumerate the ways by which people understand the internal state of others, you realize that a computer simply communicates impressions of people over long distances, some of which have limited correspondence with who a person really is. Photos could be fake. Videos could be scripted and a certain impression. You don't really see someone for who they are except in real life, talking to them for a duration.

Most people talk to or avoid certain people internally based on how they act and what they say. But once you realize the structure of communication, you feel like a robot talking to others. What was implicit becomes explicit.

So yes, a website matters, if the increasing trends for humans and human ability are greater knowledge consumption, production, network communication over locality, and so on. It reveals your internal perception, taste, intelligence, and processing of information, by which people use to judge you and ask how relation to you improves the group fitness.

Having a website selects for intellectualism. Social media is also a presentation. The question could be rephrased: Do people know you have a TikTok or Instagram?

People such as his wife and digital people have increasingly different lifestyles and diverge. Had the author made his way to a metropole or more major place, it's likely having a personal brand would've mattered more.
Dark matter probably is.

Dark matter is matter. It gravitates. It obeys conservation of angular momentum. Unless the dark matter clump happened to form in a spherically symmetric contraction, it will be rotating, almost certainly coupled to the rotation of the galaxy.
I kinda get it, but the opening paragraphs betray the author's problematic, arrogant attitude --- passive-aggressively complaining about his wife for not appreciating the grand genius of his blog. My wife, my parents, my friends etc are all aware of my website. My wife enthusiastically shows my website to our friends. I have a blog post about food recommendations that is very popular with my friends.
Huh, cool.

Well realistically if they have a chance to take on Crowdstrike they might not be wrong to walk away.
I considered Nextflow before begrudgingly settling on snakemake for my current project. Didn't record why... possibly because snakemake was already a known quantity and I was under time pressure or because I felt the task DAG would be difficult to specify in WDL. It's certainly the most mature of the bunch.
I use both, and I never had problems with any of them. Restic has the advantage that it supports a lot more endpoints than ssh/borg, f.e. S3 (or anything that rclone supports). Also borg might be a little bit more complicated to get started with than restic.
This is exactly what’s already happening, without any regulation. I doubt they’ll ever charge for emergency calls, this would only give bad PR. I think we’ll get more information about the paid plans from Apple really soon, possibly during the September keynote. Google seems to be about 2 years behind: introducing emergency calls now, Apple did that 2 years ago. But it’ll come. That’s why Apple said free for the first year (and later extended for another year), because they weren’t ready yet to open it up more (for non-emergency communication, which will cause _a lot_ more traffic).
Too bad we now have Unicode, an elegant castle covered with ugly graffiti and ramshackle addons. For example:

1. normalization

2. backwards running text (hey, why not add spiral running text?)

3. fonts

4. invisible characters

5. multiple code points with the same glyph

6. glyphs defined by multiple code points (gee, I thought Unicode was to get away with that mess from code pages!)

7. made up languages (Elvish? Come on!)

Homeless people in my area (LA). I don't blame them individually at all, it's a societal issue that some at best got kicked out of their living spaces when rent doubled in the last 5 years. Or at worst were fed fentanyl and had their lives ruined just to line the pockets of some skeevy "medical company" (thank goodness they are having the books thrown at them).

But regardless of fault, they aren't mostly just some people down on luck that at best ask for some change like in my childhood. enough are dangerous, unpredictable, and mentally unwell that public transportation is a non-trivial risk here.

Note that the Minuteman 3, the currently deployed one, also had (has?) a MIRV capability (3 warheads). I believe it's just a single warhead now because of treaties (which may have expired), and I don't know how difficult it would be to re-MIRV it.

Very convincing indeed. IMO it's almost as good as (if not better than) head mounted VR goggles. At least it doesn't cause motion sickness.

Funny how people can't even accept a simple truth and rather flag it and instead bicker over inconsequential bullshit, like whether Biden stubled twice or thrice during a stupid debate, or whether he was tired or is simply getting ever more demented, like many people over certain age.

Keep in mind that Sputnik only happened in 1957, so the chances of a nuke actually hitting its target were much smaller during the build up than after the rollout of ICBMs. A lot of these were tactical nuclear weapons deployed in Europe to be launched at invading Soviet forces (including by infantry! Look up the Davy Crockett if you want to see Fallout's mini-nuke's real life counterpart)
What do you meany by ouw two primary senses are, "sight and vision"
It is interesting that a Neoverse V2 core has the same area as a Zen 4c core (the low-frequency compact variant of Zen 4).

It is true that at this equal area the Neoverse V2 core includes an additional 1 MB of L2 cache memory, but the greater L2 cache memory is not enough to make it reach the performance of Zen 4c for the applications that are not limited by the memory bandwidth (where Graviton 4 may win).

While Neoverse V2 has a lower, but nonetheless acceptable, performance in comparison with the old Zen 4, it is likely that it also has a lower power consumption, therefore lower operating costs for Amazon, but the value is not disclosed by Amazon. In any case, because the Graviton 4 instances are offered at a lower price, they may be preferable for many applications.

However the new Zen 5 will be in a different performance league. Arm has also announced the successor of Neoverse V2, i.e. Neoverse V3, which is presumably derived from Cortex X4. That will be a faster core, but the differences between Neoverse V2 and Neoverse V3 are much smaller than those between Zen 4 and Zen 5, so the advance of Zen 5 vs. Neoverse V3 will be greater, in everything except possibly the power consumption.
There are indeed plenty of people who can't or won't work. These people exist today, with or without UBI. And they will exist tomorrow, with or without UBI.

And so what?

These people are still human beings. They still deserve life: If dogs deserve no-kill shelters[1] then humans also deserve a life. They deserve a chance to live out their days, and to tell stories to their (perhaps prolific) kids and grandkids (who also deserve a healthy life, and that includes having a healthy -- if piss-poor and inept -- family that includes their elders).

Right now, it often works like this: They live in squalor, and have broadly have nothing of merit. Their kids -- if they manage to thrive -- disown them. And the whole time this very real person is still alive (if they make it that far), their grandkids only know of them through photos.

That's no life. Not for the senior, the kid, or the grandkid.

We can do better than that. It will not be cheap, but we can afford it, and we'll have a healthier society as a result. People, and the families they create, are important to the healthy existence of everyone in a society.

[1]: We can certainly talk about assisted suicide for humans or just culling the herd as options that may be superior to leaving folks to die in the gutter, but isn't it easier to just avoid that topic and give all humans a stable and reliable chance to stay alive? How much does that cost, do you suppose?

I think it does matter that we admit other kinds of flying or intelligence because then we allow the possibility of having a blind spot.

We already have alien intelligences on this planet that are not often getting invoked in discussions of the possible unfamiliarity of the difference of computers. Let's take the octopus distributed thinking or the hive's collective intelligence. They could shine a light on how computers do or don't work, yet how many people are holding the torch?

I think self-correcting of science can be nice, but the acknowledge of racism operates on cultural scales of decades and centuries. The corrected discussions are likely to appear long after computer thinking breakthroughs which happen on the scale of years to decades. So you're right, but that doesn't matter today. But I admit I'm not sure if that's what you meant here.
