What social contract? That's a convenient fiction, but no one ever agreed to any social contract anywhere.

My adopted home of Singapore goes a lot harder on private initiative than Thatcher and Reagan ever dreamed off. And thanks to that, and some other factors, they went from third world to first world (or arguably zeroth world) in less than a generation.

> The core problem with free markets being used as a mechanism to settle all societies ills is that theory ignores natural monopolies. You can't have a car parking space and a children's park in the same place: you must make a choice.

You might want to read up on how https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_monopoly

What you are describing here has nothing to do with a 'natural monopoly'.

Funny enough, most places in the US have outrageous mandatory minimum parking space requirements. A free market would most likely provide less street parking. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Parking_mandates and especially https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_High_Cost_of_Free_Parking

Revenue means people are willing to pay for something, something they value. So it's not the be-and-end-all for how to run your city, but it's better than many other ways political decisions are made. (And better than whatever political decision procedure leads to mandatory minimum parking requirements, IMHO.)
I suspect they are taking about the time during which our ancestors evolved into modern humans.
The first clue that this is a scam is that Google Support actually called someone.
ah sad, tbh I haven't been in a store in years.
Yes and the line-worker making $2.75/hr plus tips has no power at all to help you and is just working a job. In all likelihood they have less power than you to affect change in their workplace. Making random front-line workers economic whipping boys (https://www.smbc-comics.com/?db=comics&id=2589) is just one powerless angry customer being mad at a powerless worker while the owner laughs.

Assuming the anger will get run up the chain requires the people at the top give even one shit about how their workers are treated. And they're paying them the least they're legally allowed to
and not providing benefits so… no they don't.
I have to use it for work and I disagree.

It's a step up from Windows, but you're still in an experience crafted by a huge company with goals that you might not agree with. For instance you need a third party app to prevent your screen from sleeping I guess because Apple needs a third party to blame for when doing so reduces your battery life?

Plus the window manager is awful and all of the third party apps that improve it are gimped by Apple's limited API (they can arrange windows spatially but they can't move focus spatially, i3-style).

If you're going to bother climbing out of the corporate control labyrinth you might as well go all the way and pick something community maintained.
There are no dollars in the laws of physics. It's connected ultimately to productivity of all the activities involved, and there's no obvious upper bound to productivity.
Even if the 133 scans reveal an interesting pattern, it's still an interesting pattern that's only thus far been observed in a single individual. That means it's still not meaningfully generalization, and ought to be studied further before conclusions are published.
Most of the SIMD code I write can consume tens of GB/s BW per core. From this perspective, it seems that 192 cores make for an imbalanced system.
Not a fork. They just took over the account/listing, which preserves 1200 reviews, etc. As fascinating as it is deplorable.
I think this is the same scam that Garry Tan wrote about recently:

It looks like the person from Google who was impersonated has escalated this within Google. But it’s still a hint of a new era in cybersecurity.
Cyberpunk Is Already Here. and Its Boring
Going the other way around, coming from a Slavic language I was really surprised at how many Turkish words we have. I didn't realize this until watching the show Diriliş: Ertuğrul, and doing a double take every other line. "Why are there so many Serbo-Croat words in there???"

The "error tolerance" you mention is interesting, especially in contrast with Mandarin. My understanding is that messing up the intonation there can completely alter the meaning of words, leading to trope situations where the foreigner says something embarrassing and all the native speakers laugh.
It's just a social engineering trick, nothing more. Stop elevating posts like this

Yeah, it's confusing. The article is referring to the incompleteness of Prolog implemented using Depth First Search. That's what the author means by "backtracking". I know this because I know "backtracking" is used in the logic programming community to stand for DFS, but if you don't know the jargon you'd be right to be confused. You can kind of, er, glean, that meaning in the article if you see how they refer to a "fixed" search strategy, and also notice that "backtracking" is not normally a search strategy since it can't search on its own. "Backtracking" is really "DFS with backtracking".

The article is pointing out that Prolog with backtracking DFS is incomplete with respect to the completeness of SLD-Resolution. To clarify, SLD-Resolution is complete for refutation, or with subsumption. Prolog is an implementation of SLD-Resolution using DFS with backtracking. DFS is incomplete in the sense that it gets stuck in infinite loops when an SLD tree (the structure searched by DFS in Prolog) has cycles, especially left-recursive cycles. The article gives an example of a program that loops forever when executed with DFS with backtracking, in ordinary Prolog.

SLD-Resolution's completeness does not violate the Church-Turing thesis, so it's semi-decidable: SLD-trees may have infinite branches. To be honest I don't know about the equivalence with Horn-SAT, but Resolution, restricted to definite clauses, i.e. SLD-Resolution, is complete (by refutation and subsumption, as I say above, and respecting some structural constraints to do with the sharing of variables in heads and bodies of clauses). We got several different proofs of its completeness so I think we can trust it's true.

Edit: where does this knowledge about Horn-Sat come from? Do you have references? Gimme gimme gimme.
Make a fun game with this as a premise and I will try it, but it sounds just an annoying concept.

This is in regard to widely and long time held social rules ingrained in the spoken and unspoken system of in-person manners / etiquette in the West. It has nothing to do with online forum communication: nor is that latter format some kind of proof for the former.

If you think that you have a right to behave how you wish, be anyone's guest. Just don't complain when you don't get your expected result. As that's how etiquette works. Its enforced through social punishment, and often without saying a word.

There are good reasons for most basic rules of etiquette, especially in public conversation. Protecting those reasons is a strong incentive to enforce the etiquette.

You're over-simplifying what I said when you state that people don't have a right not to see emotion. This is specifically in regard to politics, and the greater consequences of spontaneous political conversations including but also beyond being uncomfortable. What I was implying is that said emotion, in regard to politics, too often frequently leads to group tumult. Which is one aspect of why the etiquette exists.

I'm sure you can find people who will go out of there way to argue with you. But to expect random common people in their few precious leisure hours to not avoid you is asking too much, should your preferred topic of conversation be politics.
How does it work behind nat and without a super node? Still don’t get it after going through the docs.
Snaps were never ahead; it was a quick-and-dirty solution thrown together, during the time when flatpak was being designed. It was lets-do-quick-something, so we can claim first prize, never mind the consequences.

It is just another case of Cannonical being Cannonical, now with the flavor lets-try-to-monetize-here (you cannot have your private snap repos, like you can have with apt, dnf or flatpak. You can use only single global one run by Cannonical, and to get a private part of it, it is pay for play).

So yes, it is becoming fragmentation issue and thing will get much worse (for Ubuntu users), until Cannonical reverses.

No, this is not supported by the MWI. There's no clause in there about your consciousness getting magically teleported to worlds in which you survive. There's science-fiction with that as the premise, but it's fiction.
Maybe the tank is just not a large hollow structure but contains fins/compartments/whatever to restrict the sloshing motion and it's not that big a contribution to the overall motion.

If it's no stronger than a sudden wind gust, it's just something the controller has to be able to take care of without a heads-up.
And the "hack" is not really specific to gmail.

I do think such automated social engineering will become an issue though.
I have no idea where to ask questions nowadays. Stackoverflow is way "too slow" (Go to website, write a nice well formatted thread, wait for answers). But there's way faster solutions now, namely from message groups.

For example, I was wondering if its okay to move my home directory to a different filesystem altogether and create a symlink from /home/. Where do I ask such questions? The freaking ZFS mailing list? SO? It was just a passerby question, and what I wanted more than the answer is the sense of community.

The only place that I know that have a wide enough range of interest, with many people that each know some of these stuff quite deep, is public, is easily accessible is unironically 4chan /g/.

I would rather go there then Discord where humanity's knowledge will be piped to /dev/null.
Quick reminder of scam economics:

* Your funnel starts digital and cheap (email, say).

* You need "warm leads" out of the funnel, and your closers are expensive (call center operators usually in SE Asia), so you prune to only great leads. You do this by making the email something only very credulous people would believe.

* You aim for nearly 100% close rate once you get them on the phone, since closers are expensive, 1 hour closing is 1 hour spent of human time.

There are two things AI with nice English accents that's scamming you do to change this: first, they make closing cheap, so the funnel can stay wide earlier. This means we'll be seeing much more plausible / hard to decide if it's a scam content -- there's no need to prune skeptical people so early. Second, the LLM is much smarter than, let's call it your bottom third call center operator, allowing you longer in safe direct contact with formerly inaccessible leads.

The economics here mean we're going to see a LOTTT of this over the next few years, and it's likely to change how we think about trust at all, and how we think about open communication networks, like the phone system.

6GHz is definitely a step in the right direction. Also filters out all the poor people with old devices so you can enjoy radio silence on your 320MHz channel ;)

I worked in this field for a while, and had my own novel mechanism for solving a problem.

The major issue I had and I suspect this will have, is with devices that don't play by the rules. The unit economics mean the manufacturer is going to squeeze everything out, and if they can 'cheat' and claim higher numbers they will.

Back ten years ago the issue was devices ignoring CTS frames but this feels similar.
Of course, due to the very nature of dreams, your awareness of diffusion models and their output flavors how you perceive even past dreams.

Our brains love retroactively altering fuzzy memories.
I think the reason these kind of simulations are fast enough is because they are very coarse and approximate. Don't think of asking how exactly the foam swirls around the individual longerons, more like a very rough estimation of which side of the tank the liquid is slumped to. Remember it doesn't have to be "exact" just close enough to be useful.

By their very nature model predictive controllers operate in a world where not everything is perfectly modelled. Engineers do their best and whatever is left is the "error" the controller is trying to deal with.

The same. Nothing. The “security” issue here would be that the user callback can access post and request data. Tell me one place in the entire wp code base where that is NOT possible?

Security issues can be fixed WITHOUT renaming the plugin or removing links and text even if the original author has no access anymore

And that “fix” is ridiculous. If anything it breaks code of users who were actually adding callbacks using that data. It’s the nature of php that you can access those details - it’s up to the caller to know what to do with it.
If anything, the usage of user callback is an issue here.

And in any thinkable case this ain’t a security fix that was done.
A security fix would include that and only that change.
The title is misleading. This is not true in more complex animals like humans.

At the very least, reducing the number of concerns on the rocket is definitely worthwhile. They are going to have an engine in any case, and using just that and nothing else on the rocket itself simplifies testing and reduces risk. The tower can have a separate testing and there's no way something that happens on the way to orbit and back breaks the tower.

Wings, parachute, etc... All very easy to break or burn at hypersonic speeds, and very chaotic to control. It probably (very probably) wouldn't be possible to land back exactly where the rocket launched on wings or chutes - that would probably need an extremely long and wide runway, but compare the size of Starship to the Space Shuttle... It's like braking a toy car vs braking an actual truck.
It mostly comes down to reducing extra weight. You have to carry those wings and landing gear upwards, which reduces useful payload weight. But having the booster right where it started also helps with reusability. No need to transport the booster from a landing strip back to the starting table

Temporary solution until within 5-10 years everyone has upgraded their routers and devices to sit on 6ghz, 5ghz, and 2.4ghz.
Not disagreeing but it’s important to point out that the US is a different beast because of the car and roadway dependency. In Europe a large part of the population lives in places easily reachable without a car. But in the US EVs are completely central to reducing CO2 from transportation, unless you’d rather rebuild the entire country. In Europe you can make meaningful changes by simply improving, expanding, investing in existing infrastructure. Most people I know who have a car in EU region are not fully dependent, but enjoy more convenience due to overcrowded or unreliable public transit, grocery stores being further away etc. Those problems are orders of magnitude easier to solve than “let’s build rail through a giant web of sparse suburbs”.
"As we grow in this practice of attention, something else becomes clear: much of what occupies our thoughts is unnecessary. The mind is cluttered, filled with concerns that seem urgent but, on closer inspection, do little to serve our deeper well-being. Simplification is not just a matter of decluttering our physical surroundings—it is a way of thinking, of living. As we quiet the noise within, we see more clearly what truly matters. We focus, not on everything, but on the essentials. We pare down, not by force, but by choice."

Our information-technology driven culture does not help; the algorithms and shiny objects they push undermine our attention-ability.
Yes to the first part, no to the random “99% useless” number you made up.

“Delves”

I know I’m just nitpicking here but I believe you mean “inconclusive”. If we knew the findings specifically to be incorrect then we’d be learning something.
I guess I'm out of the loop. What does "/g/" mean?
It's pretty easy, actually.
First, install the plugin, I use this with elpaca:
```
(use-package latex
:ensure nil
:hook
(LaTeX-mode . TeX-fold-mode) ;; I don't use a lot the fold, but it's useful
(LaTeX-mode . turn-on-reftex) ;; For biblatex
(LaTeX-mode . LaTeX-math-mode) ;; For inserting math symbols, altough I think cdlatex is better
(LaTeX-mode . outline-minor-mode) ;; If you use outline to surf throughout the buffer
;; (LaTeX-mode . abbrev-mode) ;; If you use abbrevs
(LaTeX-mode . visual-line-mode) ;; Either this or auto-fill-mode, which will return when you have more than the `fill-column` characters
(LateX-mode . prettify-symbols-mode) ;; Will replace most latex math symbols with unicode
:bind
(:map LaTeX-mode-map
("s-a" . abbrev-mode)
("s-c" . preview-clearout-at-point)
("s-q" . LaTeX-fill-buffer)
)
:custom
(TeX-auto-save t)
(TeX-parse-self t)
(preview-auto-cache-preamble nil) ;; Setting this to t should be faster, but for me it wouldn't work with lualatex
(TeX-command-extra-options "-shell-escape")
;; Use pdf-tools to open PDF files
(TeX-view-program-selection '((output-pdf "PDF Tools"))) ;; I use pdf-tools to read the pdf in emacs
(TeX-save-query nil) ;; Auto save without saving
(TeX-show-compilation nil) ;; Hide the compilation
(TeX-engine 'luatex)
(reftex-plug-into-AUCTeX t) ;; I think this is redundant
(TeX-source-correlate-mode t) ;; To enable synctex (click on the pdf to go to source)
(TeX-source-correlate-start-server t)
:config
(add-to-list 'TeX-command-list '("Make" "make" TeX-run-command nil t))
;; Update PDF buffers after successful LaTeX runs
(add-hook 'TeX-after-compilation-finished-functions #'TeX-revert-document-buffer)
)

(use-package auctex
:ensure (auctex :pre-build (("./autogen.sh")
("./configure" "--without-texmf-dir" "--with-lispdir=.")
("make")))
:demand
:mode (("\\.tex\\'" . LaTeX-mode)
("\\.tex\\.erb\\'" . LaTeX-mode)
("\\.etx\\'" . LaTeX-mode))
:config
(with-eval-after-load 'preview
(dolist (env '("tikzpicture" "circuitikz")) ;; I want to preview tikzpictures and icrcuitikz
(add-to-list 'preview-default-preamble
(concat "\\PreviewEnvironment{" env "}") t))
(add-to-list 'preview-inner-environments "axis") ;; And axis (pgfplots)
(set-face-attribute 'preview-reference-face nil
:foreground "black"
:background "white")))
;; Tikz previews look better with a white background, if you don't use it, it's way cooler to preview latex with a "trasparent" background

```

And then the usage:

Just continue using latex as you are, and then try to incorporate auctex commands.
The most useful being =latex-environment= and =latex-section= + the previews.
So don't write \begin{env}... nor \section{sec}, and instead use C-c C-e and C-c C-s (They seem hard, but they aren't)
For the previews, use C-c C-p ... (there are a lot of options there, using which-key you can see them)
And for compiling use C-c C-c.

This is why I hate mixing vehicle and pedestrian traffic and why I don't feel safe on the sidewalk. I think it's lunacy to have vehicles driving over foot paths in front of grocery stores. The vehicles have no reason to be there but the establishment directs vehicle traffic right through the main chokepoint in front of the entry doors. I have witnessed workers and shoppers getting assaulted by vehicles numerous times at my local Kroger. Still waiting for the lightbulb to come on.
Interesting, yesterday I guy approached me on the street, offering a on drone ai system that could do this. Hardened against jamming attacks etc. I should make a write up on this, this was pretty insane
