OK yes of course, its like you can make your own Variant style types.
Well, it's sort of the simplest explanation to think that when we die, our consciousness ceases to exist. This or any other hypothesis are un-testable -- at least, they can't be tested without dying, which is sort of a problem. And speculating about things you can't disprove experimentally feels kind of like a disreputable activity to those of us who really like the scientific method.

Personally I believe (but can't prove) that there's more to consciousness than just electrical signals in my brain, but at the same time I'm aware that my physical brain is the organ I do my thinking with, and if it's not in a good state then thinking is a lot harder. Thus it's hard to imagine my consciousness existing separately from my brain. If I didn't have access to the usual apparatus I use to do my thinking with, then what's left?

Perhaps on some level the situation is like a 2-dimensional being not being able to comprehend what it would be like to live in three dimensions.

It's a trade-off though, isn't it? Everyone seems upset about OCSP as of late, but the domains being sent in plaintext is not exactly limited to just OCSP - we've had this with SNI and DNS.

The advantages of OCSP are that you get a real-time understanding of the status of a certificate and you're not needing to download large CRLs which are stale very quickly. If you set security.OCSP.require appropriately, you don't have any risk of the browser failing open, either.

It seems to me like the people who most dislike OCSP are CAs who have to maintain the infrastructure capable of responding to queries. I have really limited sympathy, that should be part of running a CA.

The privacy concerns could be solved by mandating OCSP stapling, and you could then operate the OCSP responders purely for web-servers and folks doing research.

Unfortunately the ship has sailed with ballot SC63 now, and we are where we are. I don't necessarily agree that OCSP as a concept was unfixable, though.
If they can use the DNA from picogrammes of DNA, ~15 cells, worth I suspect it would be hard to prevent leaking DNA during a crime; a bit of spittle, a cough droplet a tiny flake of dandruff could be enough I'd guess, if not now then soon.
> Sorry, I'm not following, how is getting paid less the same as getting a higher percentage?

The premise is that we want more artists, so the combined way we get this is that a) the artists get the savings from digital distribution, instead of the labels, creating a larger pool of money for the artists, and b) we have fewer superstars, so that pool of money allows more artists to exist, instead of just allowing the same number of superstars to pad their coffers even more.

The result is that the average artist gets less, because there are more of them. But less than Taylor Swift is still more than enough to make a living.

> Indie artists often undercut prices of popular artists on CDs or downloads to try to incentivize discovery.

This is fine if they lower the price to the consumer, because then the consumer's finite number of dollars allows them to buy more music from other artists, and thereby supports the viability of other artists. Or, from an individual perspective, getting a million sales at $0.05 is just as good as getting half a million sales at $0.10 -- or better, because more people discover your work and may then go to live shows or buy the next release.

The problem with Discovery Mode is that it lowers the price to Spotify, which is still going to charge the market-clearing price to the customer, and then they use the money to line their own coffers and shrink the pie for the artists.
The thing about being priced out is that it can only happen if you aren't a homeowner. If you are a homeowner (or in such a household), the same effect is making you more than $100k a year richer. So you just have to like living with your parents.

I suspect that the big vendors are already doing it, but I haven’t seen a paper on it.
Ludicrous. You've conflated a preference for authenticity with wanting to be a victim of crime. Straw man much?

There's a lot to unpack about the attitudes in your comment. I hope you were just having a bad day, because otherwise: you're quick to judge, intolerant of different values, you scorn victims of crime, and you'll sacrifice intellectual integrity to score a cheap point.

This is a paper describing the pharmacokinetics (the rates of various phases of entering the blood and clearing out of the body) for various formulations of the drug, and their hypotheses for why this might be the case:

https://pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs.molpharmaceut.3c00626

tl;dr: the molecule is poorly soluble in water, so by suspending a bunch of microparticles and injecting them subcutaneously, the drug very slowly dissolves over time, and it’s very potent, so only a little bit is necessary to do its job.

As an English-speaking person who has had to try to say the Danish word “hygge” several thousand times and never once correctly, I’m sensitive to that fact… however most of the people I hear (very often intentionally) mispronouncing her name all speak English as their first language and all can hear both “comma” and “la” (as in do re mi fa so la) just fine.

If you’re Indian her name is easy. If your native language is English, it’s easy. If you’re a Trump supporter, you trip over it somehow and then pretend you’re deaf (usually while also pretending you’re colorblind).
We're building our first home with a local construction company down here in Australia. I remembered browsing house designs using a virtual 3d plan that enabled me to walk around the house. Your idea looked very similar. I found one example online and turns out they're using Matterport.

I am working on an app like that. Far from being complete, at this point is syncing with live data from the banks (well, almost live, a few hours behind). My idea is to have the app do as much as possible for you and just tell you how you're doing: if you're saving enough, if you're spending more than usual on something, show you charts, project future savings at the current rate of saving accounting for interest/capital-gains etc. The app would incorporate sound financial planning principles (prioritise paying dept, invest some of the money, live below your means, etc). I'd love to hear from people who would be interested in this.

Yes, we gave up everything that can harm USA, including nuclear silos and strategic bombers, in exchange to safety assurances. Is Ukraine safe now?
I’m not sure I would agree. By the time you’ve written a full spec for it, you may as well have just written a high level programming language anyway. You can make assumptions that minimise the spec needed… but also programming APIs can have defaults so that’s no advantage.

I’d suggest that the Python code for your example prompt with reasonable defaults is not actually that far from the prompt itself in terms of the time necessary to write it.

However, add tricky details like how you want to handle connection pooling, differing retry strategies, short circuiting based on one of the results, business logic in the data combination step, and suddenly you’ve got a whole design doc in your prompt and you need a senior engineer with good written comms skills to get it to work.
Yeah, it's a good show. I just mean that regarding the original point (tech workers fantasising about farms are deluding themselves) the counter "they are thinking of something like Clarkson's farm" still conforms with them deluding themselves.
> Deaf people not considering it as a disability is a coping mechanism.

No, it's not, and this claim just shows your ignorance and prejudice.

> If there was a cure for deafness, nearly all deaf people would take it

This is pure conjecture, and I frankly think you are wrong.

> almost no one intentionally seeks to become deaf

Do you genuinely not understand that this has more to do with culture, language, habits and the familiar, not to mention ignorance of what it means to be deaf/Deaf, than an accurate judgment of the qualities of hearing vs. silence?
> GPT would likely be correct on the democratic will of the people for the things you cited

This is a dangerous line of thought, if you extend it to “why bother actually asking people what they want, let’s get rid of voting and just use unfeeling software that can be pointed fingers at whenever things go wrong”.

> a tiny group of elites who condescendingly believe they’re smarter

I suppose I don’t disagree, a small group without a working democratic election process is how dictatorships work.

> you will take the bus with your 3 kids and groceries in hand and you will like it

Bit of a tangent from me, but it looks like you are mixing bits of city planner utopia with bits of, I guess, typical American suburban reality. In a walkable city planned for humans (not cars) the grocery store is just downstairs or around the corner, because denser living makes them profitable enough. When you can pop down for some eggs, stop by local bakery for fresh bread, and be back home in under 7 minutes, you don’t really want to take a major trip to Costco with all your kids to load up the fridge for the week. You could still drive there, of course, and I don’t think those “condescending elites”* frown too much on a fully occupied car (especially with kids), but unless you really enjoy road trips and parking lots you probably wouldn’t.

> do-nothing social signaling policies for climate change (eg. Straws, bottle caps, grocery bags)

Reducing use of plastic is not “do-nothing” for me. I’m not sure it has much to do with climate change but I don’t want microplastics to accumulate in my body or bodies of my kids. However, I can agree with you that these are only half-measures with good optics.

* Very flattering by the way, I can barely afford a car** but if seeing benefits to walkable city planning makes me a bit elite I’ll take it!

** If my lack of wealth now makes you think I’m some kind of socialist, well I can only give you my word that I am far from.

> only 8GB of RAM

lol. We had 32-bit pointers on 386/486 systems in the early '90s, on systems with frequently less than 4MB of RAM.

If making pointers 4x bigger on systems with 2000x the amount of memory is a problem, I'm not sure how we're going to be able to solve anything ever again.

> Also, it confuses any code that assumes you can convert a pointer to a long (or long long) and back.

Well, that's why we invented intptr_t. Back in... checks notes C99. 25 years ago.

I skimmed through that looking for the context. It seems to be that Tim didn't want the governing group to have even more power to kick people out of the project, argued his point eloquently and was then kicked off the project. E.g.

> Like David too, I’m not opposed to making it impossible for the Board to do this on its own - I just want a higher bar than a simple majority vote. My years on the Board matched David’s experience: votes were usually unanimous. If there’s reasonable disagreement, under most systems of juistice that favors the accused

Initial impression to an outsider is that python's council is in the wrong here. Read a fair amount of that thread now and Tim seems pretty reasonable to me. Which does align with my mistrust of CoC structures I suppose.
I feel the same way about this as I do with the whole NSA clustfuck: If I had access to my own data and could do what I wanted with it, I'd be fine with it.
As another commenter said, they use very clean sources.

Even then, the sources are very at the very least consistent in their makeup. It's a lot easier to deal with a consistent type of contamination than a varying one.

Once you get this right, the natural next step is to take time into account. The current chart is the ideal moneyflow, but from months to months I’ll deviate from it. Taking time into account means that these deviations are saved and analyzed. It also means one can analyze or prospectively test new allocations: given average annual returns on investments, what would my savings look like in the future? How did it evolve over time?

They say that the magnetic field detectors are intended to be used in conjunction with a detailed 3D map of Earth's magnetic field.

By identifying various kinks (anomalies) in the direction and magnitude of the magnetic field it is possible to identify exact points on the map.

Therefore there is no drift as long as you are not far away from the last identified point.

The only downside is that the magnetic maps need to be brought up-to-date from time to time, due to slow changes in Earth's magnetic field, and only few countries have the resources to keep such magnetic maps up-to-date.
If consciousness (whatever it is) takes energy to be generated, there is no mechanism we can conceive of that would account for that energy. Obviously it could be some exotic sensation that has nothing to do with the physical world, but if it is then we have no idea how to expect it to behave (because nothing else we know of is like that).

Ah yes, don’t give children _any_ responsibility with money until they are 16, and then just throw them into cold water and expect them to know how to manage spending.. Sorry for being sarcastic here, and I know how to raise children is a divisive topic, but this sounds like a recipe for disaster.

Let’s give children responsibility and agency as early as possible, so they can learn to make decisions.

> but to enjoy the validation

Absolutely. It makes me think about the things in life that don't need
"validation".

Maybe it's a cliche but my dad would say about Korea and other wars
"no pics, no words, you had to be there". So that was a teenage trope
in the 80s and 90s too for my generation, if you were trying to be
cool just say "you had to be there". It draws a circle around a
personal or group experience that explicitly does not or cannot be
shared. I think maybe it somehow earns more respect and interest than
a photo, and I think with ubiquitous AI image manipulation the
currency of "pics or it didn't happen" and "for the Gram" is going to
vanish in a puff of incredulity. Now you can just text-prompt for a
picture of you and some celebrity you "randomly met" in front of
Buckingham Palace or the Taj Mahal! You can probably rent some bots to
"auto-like" you on social media, right? So who is fooling who now?

I like the system in UK and Germany where taxpayers need to contribute a fee (but not a tax, to avoid government interference) to fund broadcasters and news.

It's not about him being licensed so much as the plane itself being approved.
Thanks. I view your comment as orthogonal to mine, because I didn't say anything about how easy or hard it would be for human beings to specify the problems that must be solved. Some problems may be easy to specify, others may be hard.

I feel we're looking at the need for a measure of the computational complexity of problem specifications -- something like Kolmogorov complexity, i.e., minimum number of bits required, but for specifying instead of solving problems.

Actually, it was great example of trying to dismiss a bunch of real individual actors doing real things to label people on conspiracy theories and RWNJ as you just did.

Many people hate Trump. Many of them said they wish he was killed. Many still wish he will get jailed or will get killed. Is it really shocking that those people act in a way that hides or belittles the assassination attempt? Is it really shocking that when added together, it can seem like a conspiracy, because it really seems that coordinated? The people that are so deeply infected with TDS have one mission in mind, without even talking to each other.

Granted, at the same time, I'm guessing your going to tell me there aren't any conspiracies ro murder Trump, and that this assassination attempt is no way connected to one?

In the Netherlands as well, and the main news source (on public broadcasters) is a cooperation between all the broadcasters, which in theory means it's an independent and neutral organization that provides the news. In theory.

There's news on commercial channels as well but it's more aimed at entertainment, often has some lighter subjects and informal newsreaders, and of course ad breaks.
