It's been a minute since then, I've been in Australia for the past two decades as well - and yup, the trend is bad almost everywhere.

Having read (well, listened to) Attia's excellent OUTLIVE, I've reversed my own (slowly turned bad) trajectory by switching my diet to the basics - all home made meals, making my own breads, lots of milk and eggs, meats (not in excess), exclusively extra virgin oil and pure butter in my cooking (zero blends/veg oil etc), and not buying any (sugar) snacks - combined with exercise. Oh and no alcohol for the past few years either - sacrifices had to be made. :-)

Luckily my own kids are showing zero signs of obesity, they are very healthy.
It's "not in my backyard" politics, but Europe is full of that.
For very large stakes, the terms tend to be much more bespoke though - an automatic sale of collateral amounting to a large % stake is probably not in either borrower or lender's interest.

Minestom is not based on Kotlin, im guessing they went with a kotlin template instead. Minestom is a server implementation that doesn't use any Mojang code and by default doesn't do much for you but provides the utilities to add the things yourself.
Author here built his framework around "country of geniuses", but he never mentioned the independence status of this country. So is it a country with all the geniuses enslaved by Acme Corp CEO, or is it a country of independent geniuses who are smart enough to quickly realise they need to get rid of inferior life form for the greater good which is imperceptible to us? Either way, having this country work for you personally would be the biggest dream of every human ever corrupted with power a slightest bit.

The "Aligned AI" definition is very scarce as well. If that disgusting sloppy censorship-work implemented in their current model is what they call "alignment", then potentially it does more harm than it's trying to prevent.

By the way, Dario Amodei, when will it be possible to remove my credit card data from your databases?
Fair enough, but in the end we still got the tariffs.
I could in future releases, yes.
It depends how you measure the time i guess. I would say from 4 hours to 6 hours on an average workday (thats what wakatime says at least).

But is writing code, stopping for reading docs / thinking and continue writing code counted as 1 big unit of coding, or 2 small?

I dont code that much outside of my work anymore, buy i could go for 17+ hours when I was younger.
The answer can (seemingly?) be found on a VSCode extension called Code Time. It keeps track of how much you've been "coding" and "actively coding".

"Your code time is the total time you have spent in your editor today. Your active code time is the time you spend actively writing and editing code in your editor or IDE".

They know as well as anybody the answer to the question on a statistical level, and can answer it personally for you too.

Their data shows most programmers code less than 1 hour a day, for a grand total of 4 hours 21 minutes a week: https://www.software.com/reports/code-time-report
AC was indeed important. But also:

We still sometimes use things like awnings, just in the form of 'porches' or modern-looking 'slat awnings'

Changes in architectural fashion has made some forms of awning look dated.

Fabric awnings need upkeep to keep them looking smart. When the awnings are above ground level, it's semi-expensive upkeep. Building owners are tempted to keep those tired, sun-bleached awnings in place rather than renewing them - contributing to the dated reputation of awnings.

Awnings also face competition from interior curtains and blinds, which are much simpler to maintain.

And there's shifting building use. A few decades ago an office worker would prize a desk by a big window with lots of natural light to read paperwork by, but in the age of PCs nobody wants direct sunlight on their screen. Internal blinds let workers control the light levels to match their needs.
You're overlooking the fact that these are incredibly common in the Netherlands, yet the massive problems you describe are nowhere to be found. Most people get away with giving them some love maybe every few years when they get creaky, if even that. Your argument is about as reasonable as saying we shouldn't have door hinges or door locks because moving parts have drawbacks. It's silly, these systems are so simple that they require next to no upkeep for years at a time.
That changed in the last decade, among other things the population is dissatisfied with immigration.

I cannot tell you if that is justified, but I can say from personal experience that in some cases the praised Dutch directness turned to racism.
Things like, people not believing that you have a phd, or refusing to take your credit card because the color of skin does not match the ethnicity of the name.

The climate emergency is just a way to make you pay more taxes and accept a worse life for you and your children than what your parents had. It shames you into accepting we are using up too much, but a select few can still eat meat and fly private jets since they can pay for all the extra taxes, meanwhile you should accept your life of sacrifice for the planet.

If we actually are in trouble the people in power can easily geo-engineer cooling the whole planet. Countries have done cloud seeding for decades, we can cool the planet if we want.
> only three things have been assembled from multiple launches like you are proposing: Mir, ISS, and Tiangong

I would also count the Apollo missions. They launched on a single rocket, but the docking between the CSM and Lunar Module was for all intents and purposes equally difficult to assembly on orbit.

There are multiple commercial companies planning to assemble stations over the next few years. This in addition to the on-orbit refueling that SpaceX will be doing should hopefully enable a new generation of larger, assembled interplanetary probes.
Don't forget food.

Eating so much meat, especially beef is devastating on the environment.

A single hamburger pollutes like driving an SUV for 50 miles.

For some reason the food industry catches very little attention despite the gigantic impact.
To quote Reagan:

> The American people, the most generous on earth, who created the highest standard of living, are not going to accept the notion that we can only make a better world for others by moving backwards ourselves.

We need to embrace carbon-free electricity (whether its nuclear or solar or whatever) and electrify as many things as possible.

Degrowth isn't a humane solution, and it would first require the destruction of democracy as no electorate would endure it for long.
I don’t know of any public sources suggesting that children tend to do either of those things. Anecdotally, I definitely did not eat or swallow toothpaste as a kid.

Indeed we shouldn’t have hinges or locks because moving parts have drawbacks, in contexts where that matters. For instance portals that don’t need a door at all, or walls that don’t need to open. Would you argue that every open passageway should have a door blocking it, and every wall should have hinges installed? No, that’s ridiculous. It’s equally ridiculous to get this angry about the simple fact that fixed awnings have upsides, and depending on the context they might be a better choice than retractable ones.
What do you think sounds reasonable?
It may surprise you, but all energy production is or was heavily subsidized at one point or the other in virtually all states. I'm sure I don't have to spell out where nuclear power would be today if not for the billions of subsidies.

Just visit the Wikipedia page for Hinkley Point [1], read the section on economics, and weep. That's your money at work. And it has been the same for coal, oil, gas, and now solar and wind energy, all over Europe and the US.

On a level playing field without subsidies, where we can build solar and wind power generators at scale like today, they would pummel all the other energy sources on costs alone (just think of all the raw material you don't need to burn to make your turbines turn).

50% overcapacity of renewables is still spending way, way less than the equivalent for nuclear. How do the numbers look with 100% or 200% overcapacity, where you're still spending about half of what you would spend on nuclear?
Efficiency, sure, but also industry getting wiped out.
And the "magic mouse" is actually just powered by electricity.

I got pretty good results with the autoimmune protocol (pain-free plus no more brain fog after 3 months of the elimination phase.) I talked about it to my GP who told me to do an allergy skin test, because blood tests were not 100% reliable.
You are both over thinking it.

GIT? unit tests? and i thought debuggers spoiled us?

although cavemen-esque in comparison to 'modernity'; it wasn't a nightmare to Pause/resume program flow and carefully distill every suspected-erroneous call to Console.Log(e)/stdout/IO/alert(e)/WriteLine(e); `everything to find the fun/troublesome bits of one's program - instead of a tedious labyrinth of stack traces obfuscating out any useful information, further insulted by nearly un-googable compiler errors.

Tests were commented out functional calls with mock data.

If you never need to instantiate another instance of a structure so much so that it would benefit from an explicit schema for its use - whether it be an object or class inheritance or prototype chain - then sure, optimize it into a byte array, or even a proper Object/struct.

But if it exists / is instantiated once/twice, it is likely to be best optimized as raw variables - short-cutting OOP and it's innate inheritance chain would be wise, as well as limiting possibly OOP overhead, such as garbage collection.

>interface in C#

Coincidentally, that is where my patience for abstraction for C# had finally diminished.

yield and generators gave off awkward syntatic-over-carmelized sugar smell as well - I saw the need, to compliment namespaces/access modifiers, but felt like a small tailored class would always outweigh the negligible time-save.

I'm sure they can. But at that point you're looking at expenses higher than just making the damn thing retractable, and with worse functionality.
It's still going to get worse, until we find a fix, a ultimate fix, but as far as i know, we haven't found it yet. It's like in the movies, until it becomes a global crisis and disaster, nobody pays attention, just scientists.
Sometimes we just don’t know if a person that started something did know how hard it would be or not. Sometimes it is not possible to know how hard things can be or not.

Generally this is a very interesting question hat could be discussed in a very long thread, but still the reader will not get any value from it.
1. User said "bringing together" which has different connotations to "connect". One is positive (and culturally insensitive) and the second one is neutral (and more correct). If you want to be descriptive, be neutral at the very least, but you can't expect to introduce moral viewpoints on historical events and not expected to be challenged on the ethics of those viewpoints. Because the event is in the past but your opinion is in the present and that opinion is what is being challenged here not the actual event.

2. You are purposely ignoring that:
A) lots of them were unalived by the invaders and this has been going on on a more quieter manner until about 40-30 years ago which is not that long ago
B)Columbus himself had to be arrested because even his resource-loving managers were horrified of the things he did there
C) whole nations, tribes and cultures were wiped by the invaders
D) the remaining natives in the northern bits lost of most of their lands and autonomy

None of this can be considered to be an inevitable result of trade. You can trade with a country without doing any of the above as can be seen by all the other countries that engaged in trade at that time. There is a moral element to all this that you are accidentally or purposefully ignoring. There is no need to compare it to any modern day conflict because even by today standards it was really evil and not all "inevitable".
Moq® cannot do it. I forked Moq® and made a library that can mock classes: https://github.com/Kuinox/Myna.
It can do that by weaving the class you mock at compile time for your mocks (you can still use your class normally).

EDIT: (in defence of Bonaparte re. Wieland: having both read Linebarger's Psychological Warfare covering the general theory, and myself noted a tendency, in modern US corporations as in ancient chinese imperial tales, to attach great importance to making your predecessor look bad, it's certainly a consistent position for one emperor, in reading about others, to be annoyed less by any red anti-tyrannical subtext, and more by a certain willingness to believe told tales that smacks more of cluelessness than psychopathy. I would not be surprised if Bonaparte would've claimed Bulgakov's Pilate to have been more realistically depicted.)

EDIT2: Tacitus was born (as the web seems to agree) an Equestrian, yet followed the cursus honorum (ought to be in official records), which implies imperial Rome was less vertically stratified than republican Rome?

To think things get done in the EU without Germany's approval is a bit past naivety. Germany publicly voted no to try and delay a Chinese reprisal too fast in counter tariffs, but that's just for optics, otherwise they wouldn't have been approved.

It's incredible how one can see what happens in practice but believe what people say rather than what people do.
I once worked for an MSP that would reuse decommissioned storage for other customers and services.

Tried to convince them to stop, and even setup a service on lunch breaks to attempt and sanitise them using open guidelines available at that time - an automated service that would display drive sanitisation status on a text based panel next to a multi disk bay caddy in the storage room.

I resigned because of this, and many other similar business practices - all just to make more money (it was not malicious otherwise).

The business is rather successful to this day. I only hope they have stopped such activities.

And yet I still lose sleep about this..
Preferably I would have a server laying in between my clients and bridges. When sending a message, I would select one of the available identities. Let's say for example that I would want to contact somebody on discord, on my client I would select him as the recipient and choose one of the available identities. XMPP seems nice in this architecture
> Look Away: enable_look_away helps create a more natural look by allowing the eyes to look away randomly from the camera when speaking

For the demo video, try enable_look_away = true, look_away_offset_max = 10, look_away_interval_min = 1 and look_away_interval_range = 1 (then submit), which from the result I got should really be the default for a more natural result.
I think you might underestimate how much this is an important factor in the strength of the US economy.
Apple will make smart light bulb and sell it as a revolutionary intelligent light control system. If it weren't for their brand reputation, they'd look like one of the worst scam companies in tech, right down to the spelling mistakes in their descriptions (for some reason they don't like to use definite or indefinite articles for their products which always make their marketing seem like a bad machine translation to me).
Linux distributions should patch chromium downstream, enabling the "webRequestBlocking" API in manifest v3. The alternative is to load "policy" extensions, so I guess a system-wide ubo linux package could do it..
> they all share many common ancestors, but that those common ancestors are probably shared by many others as well so it's not very unique.

That's my point. By "common ancestor" I meant, common ancestor common to them only. That's what I find to be unlikely.

And yes, you are right about this. There is plenty of vids on YT that explain the math
What percentage of US buildings would you say have air conditioning? The amount of UK homes that have AC is basically 0. Although I guess most commercial buildings would have it. I wonder if this is because UK homes are mainly brick, would that make a difference? Absolute max temp here in summer is 40 degrees C for 1 or 2 days and 30 degrees is pretty rare on most days in summer. When I saw the title I'd assumed this was about rainfall and guttering, which is something we do know about in the UK!

The proposal that any time o create an account o need multiple physical tokens or multiple password managers running is unbelievably stupid & fantastical. This whole project is doomed doomed doomed of this is the model.

I've never seen a single sight suggest this either. Many have set up passkeys, but not one has prompted me to create a second. I have downloaded a lot of backup keys though.

Sorry to be on blast here but every time passkeys come up the "use multiple keys" gets said & it's a joke. There needs to be a flow where I can create a passkey & have it replicate to a bunch of devices automatically; the current proposal that users need to gather all their security tokens & add each one is an absolute promise this technology is going to flop.
That's very true.

When a customer has a problem, you create a solution to it. Often the problem is part of a much larger space, so you tend to have discussions of all the possible features you could implement. This is a necessary step to gain knowledge about the problem space, but it can lead you to think that the solution have to cover it all

Time restraints leads to a "temporary" feature to solve the customer's immediate need. Most of the time it turns out that all the other features are neither necessary nor important enough to spend time on.

Projects without time restraints or focus tends to create a complex system that will "solve" the entire problem space. Most of the time it turns out that our assumptions are wrong and we need to do a major refactoring.

"Temporary" solutions may not have the best code structure or architecture, but it is not necessarily a bad technical debt, as many new developers to the project seems to think it is. Also, the time restraints of a temporary solution encourages the developer to create simple code and not "clever" code, because they can always blame time restraints for their lack of cleverness. If the code has been mostly unchanged for years, somewhat maintainable and solves the customer's problems, it's not really a problem.

When you hike in through the backside like that, is there a place where you buy a ticket and/or are scanned for tickets?

When I was there, we went through the official entrance in Wadi Musa, with tickets and all (which I don't mind!). We went early to have the time to make quite a large tour around the whole area, and as far as I could tell it looked like the area was simply open for anyone to hike in or out freely, except through the front entrance. As I said, I don't have any problem with buying a ticket, I'm just wondering if my observations are correct.
Also try the donkey travel agency there ;DD.

I'm curious how is lean mass measured and why do we think what we measure is actually lean.

I'm not denying that under some circumstances like in the case of severely obese patients their bodies might think protein is better energy source than fat but in people with normally functioning bodies it shouldn't happen a lot especially if they get enough protein in their weight loss diet.
The example you post works just fine ;)

On a serious note, yes not all syntax noted in the Mermaid docs work yet. I'm planning on adding more coverage of the Mermaid syntax over time. For now the basics work and (hopefully) shows its potential.
