Getting out of the big cities tends to help. Or even just out of the tourist area. The last time I went to Nice, for example, I found it hilarious that within Carre d'Or, people would switch to English when I showed the slightest hesitation with my French, or the first time I made an error (so, quickly). But just a few steps into Liberation, minutes walk away, we kept coming across shop staff that kept speaking French no matter what horrible crimes I committed against their language...
Didn’t this start as unlimited anywhere for 9 euros no strings attached?

I LOVE the German transit system (although Denmark wins in cleanliness). However, Germany is a bit predatory with this new system. You can ONLY purchase this ticket as a subscription model. If you’re a tourist, you must cancel before the 10th of the month or you get auto rebilled.

Additionally, there are so many apps that resell the ticket as some white label system, so it was very confusing to purchase (you cannot buy them at the machines).

The price hike is the wrong direction here if we are reducing that much time on the road. Kudos though for the great rail systems. The USA has a lot to learn here and it’s baffling how terrible it is here. I doubt I’d ever need a car in Germany given the rail system was much more convenient. In the USA I spend 10-15 mins trying to park any time I go anywhere
I read it. Wasn't worth a read.

This was a particularly funny quote:

> Musk “seems to care a lot more about 100,000 years from now than now here on Earth.”

I mean.. I think Musk is an arsehole and his plan to colonise Mars is insane, but this does not feel like a criticism! This environmentalist seems to care a lot more about short term issues than the long term viability of life on Earth.

> “At least one egg in every nest was either damaged or not there,” LeClaire says.

Ok let's assume that they are keeping count of the number of eggs in every nest... One egg? If these birds are going to die out because one egg in each nest breaks they aren't going to survive anyway.

I'm not saying the environment is unimportant, but I think you have to weight it against the importance of the thing you're stopping in the name of the environment.

It's like all the solar farm projects that get stopped in the UK because people think sticking some poles in a field is going to kill all the newts. Like, what do you think is going to happen to the newts when it's 40C in the summer?
Plus they buy their gas.

It is a tense in Turkish though.
The closest equivalent in English is scare quotes. Works in spoken contexts too, just do finger quotes and change intonation a bit.

You can use quotes neutrally: John says "the nuclear waste is totally safe".

Or you can use them to cast subtle shade: John says the nuclear waste is "totally safe".
Apparently a lot of Buddhist texts start (in English) with “So it has been told to me”.
How very interesting, I understand Turkish and Farsi are totally unrelated (Turkic and Indo-European language families).
We thought that was dorky, skiddie shit even back in the 90s. It was even more stale by the time Piro and Largo turned it into a personality trait.

I think this is backwards. It's much easier to join Zoom meetings from home, and while you are on these meetings everyone can see that you're giving them at least partial attention. While heads-down work at home requires more discipline from you and more of a leap of faith from management.

In the office, quiet spaces to take a meeting from are scarce, but it's better established that your unscheduled time is actually spent on work.

In many cases I suspect that leadership remembers the time when the company was small and everybody was basically all in the same room and how productive that time was. If you can get the entire company into a single small room magical things can happen. But RTO doesn't get the entire company into a single small room.

> LLMs feed on content and data scraped from web pages...

Not exclusively, no. As we march forward I'd expect:

- the number of web pages generated by AI will outpace the number generated by humans, probably on the order of a few magnitudes, meaning that human-generated content will drown in a sea of machine generated content. Furthermore, ad-supported web sites will all be AI generated, cutting off advertising funding for human-generated sites

- this will make web pages a very poor source of information to scrape overall, since it'll mostly be LLM output

- sophisticated AI builders will start signing licensing deals with content creators that gives them exclusive access for their AI. Think: Medical and legal journals, large archives of historical works, stock market historical data, technical manuals, etc. This content isn't very consumer friendly as-is, but could be used to generate consumer friendly content that is technically more accurate.

> It's weird how you paint that it's inevitable, just to tell them "tough luck"? They don't need to fight "AI" they only need to make sure their work isn't stolen, and there are many options they can adapt to.

I think you're suggesting that people can continue publishing their content on publicly accessible web sites and that they're somehow able to detect that their site is being visited by an AI web scraper, and in those cases they feed "garbage" to the scraper. I'm suggesting that this will be a loosing battle, that trying to detect bots already is a forever-war that can't be won, while at the same time consumer behavior will change such that publishing pages on public web sites won't be an effective way to reach an audience because of the mountains of AI-generated content.

DNA study confirms Christopher Columbus’s remains are entombed in Seville
60 days per change is really pretty slow when you want to iterate quickly. It's probably worthwhile to figure out if we can speed that up. Perhaps by letting SpaceX pay a expedite fee (say, 2x the salary costs of the beurocracy employees who would look at it) to get it looked at faster?
As mentioned, it is a cultural thing.
That happened to Spike Lee, with his "Malcolm X" movie. The big problem was length. The completion bond company pulled the plug at one point. Lee found enough rich black people to bail out the production, and eventually released the 202 minute version. It was a critical success, but just too long to make money in theaters.

With the notable exception of "Gone with the Wind", few Hollywood films over 3 hours made money.[1]
This is less of a problem today, because there are alternatives to theatrical distribution. Long-form mini-series are a thing, and home screens are good enough for epic movies.

IMdb says of Megalopolis, "It's 138 minutes long, but feels like it exceeds the three hour mark." The worst of both worlds.

>> "... artists lose their ability to make art when their brain is infected by money and power."

I disagree. It's largely age based. Especially for filmmakers as novelty is part of the appeal of movies. As the artist ages, I think Yeats said it best: "What can I but enumerate old themes".

Coppola is 85. How many octogenarians are still creatively significant? Yes, they can still put out an album or a film or a book, but their best days are behind them.

Coppola paid for "Megalopolis" out of his own pocket. He wrote and directed the story and cast the actors that he wanted. What is art in its purist form but the self-expression on an individual?

Previously, Coppola mortgaged his home and went legendarily overtime and overbudget for "Apocalypse Now". That's regarded as a classic and was lauded in its time. "Megalopolis", not so much, though time could add a new perspective, as sometimes art becomes more favorably viewed upon reflection.

Patterns of Aavistus 2024
Yes. The booster has two pins that stick out at the top that are designed to hold the weight of the entire booster when empty. The plan is for the booster to return to the launch tower, position itself between the arms which will close on it and then the pins will “land” on the arms, completing the catch.
Okay, I read the FAA's written reevaluation (source: https://www.faa.gov/media/85696).

My notes:

- SpaceX requested to amend its existing "Programmatic Environmental Assesment" of 2022 to support jettisoning the interstage heat shield and (importantly) using an updating sonic boom model based on flight data. In my opinion, this is the critical point of this assessment.

- The impact on endangered wildlife is reassessed based on a report submitted by SpaceX.

- There are other points like concerns about waterway closures, and the water discharged by the deluge system. I know there was some controversy about the deluge system and the cleanliness of that water, but according to this report, it's all good.

The new evaluation of the sonic boom using flight data shows that SpaceX's original assessment was way off and the intensity and area affected by these sonic booms is much larger in reality. The FAA then goes through a significant amount of rationalizations (with sources, to be fair) to justify that the predictions of the new sonic boom model are still acceptable.

The biological resources section also shows that SpaceX underestimated the effects of their launch operations on local wildlife, but some research and monitoring measures are proposed to counteract this.

All in all, my opinion is that the FAA is doing everything it can to not be an obstacle. But they do have to analyze this stuff much more rigorously than SpaceX does. That is quite literally their job after all.

Yeah mostly cost related as others have suggested, I also use more cushioned shoes for training to help reduce fatigue for the back-to-back weeks of long runs.

I thought the same thing about gait but gave it a shot anyway. Didn't throw me off all that much, and I still enjoyed running in the firmer fly's. I did do a few trial short runs before the long run just so I was not going in cold.

To give an idea of shoe wear. I'll easily run through 1 pair in a year if I'm training for a marathon (just to run it). If I'm training to beat PRs then I'll go through almost 2.

That is not the honest answer. Also, the response to the threat of ICBMs is well known, it's called mutually assured destruction.

The honest answer is that it would lead to sanctions on countries who continue to do business with russia. These are countries who we could like to consider as allies, such as India.

> There's no one to trust more than a good friend to be there for you when the ride gets bumpy, not some guy in a suit doing it for the money.

I couldn't disagree more.

Your good friend most likely doesn't have the slightest idea how to handle things if your trip goes south. Especially when they're on their own "ride". That's not to disparage anyone, but just to state the fact that there is training around these things that comes from lots of experience.

And therapists are not "some guy in a suit doing it for the money". You don't get rich doing psychotherapy -- you do it because you genuinely want to help people. And never in my life have I seen a therapist in a suit.

This isn't to say that every therapist is great or that every friend is terrible -- just that the relative success rates of being able to help someone on a bad trip, both during and after, are going to be a lot higher on the side of trained therapists. Because of the training.

In English, school-taught grammar is often wildly different from modern linguists' view. For example, while traditional English grammar has no less than 12 tenses, linguists consider it to only have two tenses: past or present. The remaining differences don't really behave like tense.

I was not talking about your personal experience. You may have actually benefitted from the main intended pharmacological effects of this drug, since it appears to be affecting your metabolism (your "body holds onto weight" comment suggests that). This is a diabetes drug, remember.

The majority of people who are accessing this drug have endocrine systems that work just fine, but problems with controlling themselves around food. Our societal-level response is to treat it with a drug rather than helping people who really do have significant willpower problems overcoming their lack of discipline. There are hugely beneficial approaches that rely on CBT, for example, but are relatively controversial because of "weightism" concerns.

I don't have the details, but every single time I have heard the mention of Deutsche Bahn in the last few years it has been accompanied by comments of how broken it has become, with constant delays and cancellations, to the point where for many people it is no longer a viable option for commute or for anything where you cannot risk to be up to several hours late.

I guess it's all relative. If you come to rely on an excellent and omnipresent rail service for many years as a society, the impacts are quite big when it stops working well. If the service itself is built assuming reliability, where transferring between trains is common, then issues can get substantially amplified if that choreography gets somewhat disrupted.

The correct procedure when they fuck up and close the report is to ask the report to be made public. Had he done this, this would have been a non issue.
