This plays out in every community, at every scale. What communities are other communities' futures and never pasts?

California & San Francisco: All of their problems are foreshadowing what is going to happen in other parts of the US; all of their strengths are also coming to other places.

Even within San Francisco, is Valencia St the future or past of tony Chestnut St?

When you think about bad shit happening, and then how we only seem capable of reactive, rather than proactive politics, seems obvious. Problems have to become catastrophic before anyone deals with them, and all the problems left are the ones are small, but growing.

I mean... to play devil’s advocate, if each promotion accelerates the compounding of your investments to the point where by the time you fail you’ve already reached financial independence, then oh well? Can always go back down the ladder or jump to different types of ladders at your convenience then.

I'm also very wary of being stuck in my ways, but even after all that bias-compensation, I still hold the belief that the fastest/most maintainable/easiest/best for the user way to make web apps is server-side rendered with minimal JS (mostly to enhance components). I don't know if this makes me a dinosaur, but I firmly believe that the best way to make 95% of modern websites is Django+HTMX (or similar), instead of a heavy SPA with an API.

Of course, when it comes to web apps, like Google Docs or similar, SPAs all the way, but that's a tiny minority of the web.
I doubt that’s supporting the industry. Rybelsus is constrained from a supply pov and expensive.

But as it is said in this article (not with these words), the neoliberalism is not compatible. The youngs are literaly dying of too much work and what it wants to summarize is 'the old are still in power', 'samurais that surrended'. It all is just neoliberal ideology. All these contradictions are roting its society.

As someone who works in Rust professionally, I've only found this to be true in the initial learning curve (which is admittedly steeper than many other languages). But once that up-front cost was paid, I actually find myself more productive in Rust than in other languages.

Anandtech was one of my earliest sources of highly quality tech reporting. In particular their reliance on data and testing always stood out.
Many hours were spent there during my formative years. And, while I did stop reading it regularly at University, it had already played an important part in informing, and so shaping me.

Hey thanks for your support! Committee interest might be nice, but I think what would be most helpful at this point is just additional resources in general, whether as a result of committee interest or otherwise. :)

> How is that not the website declaring it? Approval processes are meaningless.

Submitting your website to a list controlled by some arbitrary website on the Internet is very much different from serving some kind of metadata to visitors that their browsers interpret.

Also the approval process existing does matter. Under a normal situation when you serve some kind of metadata (like what sites you are "related" to) there is no "approval" process to who gets to serve this kind of metadata and who doesn't.

The tools to do this the right way exist in so many different ways.
I've had a mixture of the two in my years. The growing "Fire Marshall liability" thing (which obviously depends on your state, and other factors) has been pushing companies to do both, even in cases where they weren't convinced for security reasons alone. (Though security reasons alone you would expect a bank to require both in and out.) (ETA: And the article implies that they did have a badge out.)
It's been 34 years, so the original Pfizer patents are invalid and can just be copied? Clearly the primary factor in inability to do that has to be regulation in bringing drug to market, right?
Funny thing is that what they implemented in that licence is kind of a copy left thingy. Because you can use llama to train other models, but you would have to declare them derivative and thus keep the licence terms. (Not saying this is OSI compliant, but at least a IMHO a new kind of beast)
Agreed. Japan's "lost decade" started 10-20 years before the rest of many Western (e.g. United States) and non-Western nations (e.g. People's Republic of China, Republic of Korea, etc).

I'm watching it with attention but some stuff is concerning:

* Some binaries in the source tree like https://github.com/lem-project/lem/tree/main/extensions/term...

* Commit messages aren't really descriptive.

* PRs and issues lingering in the void.

* Working around the strange inferior process thing (cf https://github.com/lem-project/lem/issues/1076) that could be replaced by uiop:launch-program when a tty/pty isn't needed; still no LSP in c-mode, and forget C++, obviously.

Well, let's be honest, it's very interesting but still a one-man effort, as far as the core editor goes, so these are pretty normal.
I just want to see desktops or servers with the high-performance chips that I can readily buy online. Also, knowing the company will be making replacement parts in a few years. Preferably priced competitively with x86 servers.

Do these exist yet? And is there a list of all of the stores?

Note to product developers. Consider making a SoC with high-performance core and your differentiating accelerators. Sell the full SoC for high price to get back your investment. Yet, include the ability to disable the accelerators to leave only a RISC-V system. Sell that on the side for x86 prices. That might make one financially viable more than hoping just to sell a RISC-V by itself. Ex: 10Gbps network accelerator/encryptor using dual/quad-core RISC-V + custom hardware for networking/crypto disables the latter but leaves dual/quad cores.

The facts of it are that he did not do the hacking and did not make the information information online. He's just mirroring the easily available information because the city was lying about it. That's journalism. If the city wants to sue someone they should look internally and at the initial hackers/posters of the information in public.

Acquired had a great episode earlier this year that really connects with this. They talked about how Novo Nordisk stuck with GLP-1 research for decades, even when it didn’t seem like a sure thing.

A big part of that was Mads Krogsgaard Thomsen, who pushed for GLP-1 research at Novo even when he faced a lot of skepticism and wasn't always treated well for it. Compare that with MetaBio—mentioned in the study—where Pfizer pulled the plug early and missed the boat entirely. Novo’s persistence, especially Thomsen's, led to Ozempic and Wegovy
There is a history of these agencies later withdrawing approvals and FDA conservatism protecting US healthcare consumers. The same pattern applies with these other agencies not basing decisions on FDA approval. Overall, the combination of approval authorities and global surveillance delivers the best results by ensuring the broadest coverage and continued research.

TOR is PURELY designed for spies to use to hide among the network in countries throughout the world. It needs regular people to believe in it, to use it, but its only real purpose is for the spies. Regular users can and are deanonymised in real time and without using zero days. You just have to look at the network to see that you are almost exclusive connected to a series of entry/relay/exit nodes within 14 Eyes countries who share real-time data with each other. The servers are fast because most are using VPS. There was a time when it was more anonymous, when the relays would actually be random people's own computers across the globe, but it was too slow. The whole thing is gamed, and just because criminals are on there thinking they are anonymous is just because they are allowed to continue to keep the charade alive. I know I am going to be bursting bubbles here for 'true believers', but they have all been gamed for years. I'm surprised this info is Top Secret, it should be utter common sense to everyone by now.
I could imagine easy msg duplication over multiple devices to be a operational vulnerability. But honestly: most people don't need to worry about opsec. And it is very annoying that signal can't allow multidevice and data duplication, even Whatsapp solved that now
Pretty much. The whole thing (including scripts, packages, configuration, etc.) is written in CL, there's no C core (minus a bit of ffi here and there for e.g. shell interaction). This makes it really easy to modify the editor's source code while you're in it. Another bonus of everything being written in a general-purpose language like CL is that you can leverage any random CL library for your config/packages, and don't have to do janky stuff like lsp-bridge calling Python in order to have non-blocking completion.

Besides better defaults, it supports multithreading and launches instantly, feeling a lot snappier all-around. When I first started using lem, I basically just used it as a shell editor for non-code stuff like text/config files, since it started much faster than emacs (I don't like using the daemon) and had the same keybinds. At some point I started using common lisp for a personal project and it's become my main editor since. Development is also super active.

The US had a lost decade similar to Japan in the 90s during the 1970s-80s with similar convos of a rapidly aging and backwards society (https://www.nytimes.com/1981/05/24/us/rise-of-elderly-popula... // "malaise forever" - https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=czfKPaypNsU)

The biggest difference was the US was able to leverage white collar immigration to develop a substantial lead in the computing industry by the mid-90s.

Einstein's Other Theory of Everything
I think we must remember to mention "rationality" in such conversations whenever we speak of things like "rigidity".

Rigidity is a kind of irrational stubbornness, and unwillingness to consider alternatives when reason compels otherwise. Someone who is principled and has a reasoned basis for his principles isn't stubborn or rigid. He's principled. His certainty isn't irrational, because it is rooted in the best justifications he has, perhaps even very good justifications that have successfully resisted all counterarguments he has heard, perhaps justifications that necessarily follow and could not be otherwise. Certainty is not a sin if rationally justified. Indeed, there is a performative contradiction in claiming that it is with certainty.
This is an interesting example, because in this case- I think it could be seen as being stuck in old ways by a younger person that is excited about new stuff, but it sounds like you actually just have more experience and a broader perspective, and so know when something "old fashioned" can be simpler and more effective than using the latest most trendy method.

I hate having to use what is basically a simple static page but is effectively a large app that is being downloaded and executed client side- it makes it unresponsive.
> For example, consider the stackexchange family of sites. They are clearly related, have a unified branding, etc. but are on separate domains. On Firefox, which blocks third party cookies, I have to log in to each of those domains separately. I can't log in to stackoverflow.com, then go to superuser.com and already be logged in. That is a problem that First party sets would solve.

Other sites seem to handle this fine with redirects and cross-origin headers. Sure, at some point you land on "signin.foo.com", but from the user experience you were authenticated without having to sign in again.

Or why Mr. Krugman writes about a technology that he clearly doesn't understand and is unable to imagine a valid use for.

Right - he isn't talking about the technical aspects of cryptocurrencies; but rather their financial use cases, which are much closer to his turf.

Also, he never said there weren't other uses cases -- only that the two he mentioned were in his view the most prominent, or driving use cases (and he is certainly not alone in this view). You may not agree with this view, but there's no need to introduce an unhelpful and misleading misrepresentation of what he actually said.

That aside, I'm happy it worked out and I understand it's hard to send an email like that.

I've been burned by that "why should I do it if it's already been done" feeling. I'm still grappling that but the thing that helps me is a quote from Brian Eno where he basically says "f--- originality". Don't try to be original, just do the thing and it will be unique because it's you who did it.
Google's locking service
It's interesting to consider that these "Japan is backwards" takes might persist in part simply because it hasn't melded with the global first world culture. I can go to various countries and very similar experiences at an electronics store, a hotel and a gas station. In Japan all of those (and many others) are distinctively Japanese.

I've read travelogues from the 17th-19th centuries, and in a lot of them, all of the countries are described like Japan. "Look at these weirdos, they insist on ______!" A tourist going from France to Italy would be constantly amazed, offended and puzzled. No longer.

It's a weird thought for me to have. I'm not a conservative; I view xenophobia, fear of change, and cultural/economic death grips by an older generation as negatives. But it feels like most of the world that doesn't have those things is increasingly homogeneous, in a way that's also uncomfortable to see.

Yes, that is exactly what both the article and I said. The warning was applied to the link. Some people accused Twitter of doing that nefariously. Twitter denied it and claimed it was a mistake. Those are the facts of the situation.

The motivation for applying the warning or whether it was a mistake are not facts that can be confirmed by an independent journalist. They are speculation regardless of which side of the issue you come down on.
