> you get to take a tax write-off for the stolen funds.

At least for US federal taxes, that changed with a very partisan ~2017 law, where Republicans stripped it down to only cover federally declared unique disaster situations.

Not too bad. You need a lot of space for 50 panels. You need to live in a large suburbian house or rural and stick them on a barn or on the ground.

Clearly to meet demand we need solar farms and grids for most people.
That's an incorrect measure to look at though. Per capita social expenditure is highly dependent on the welfare structure of a country. There are developed countries (notably the Arab welfare states - for their citizens only!) which get away with a much lower expenditure even adjusted for PPP, simply because the government directly handles the provision of a lot of essential services such as education and healthcare. The US Medicare system is structured in a way to inflate its own costs.
Thank you for such a kind praise for Jpegli! This made my day.
I'm studying Japanese at the moment and what struck me is how important context is, particularly in reading. You need to know where to read 1-3 letters ahead to read a word and interpret it. That's not really a thing in English - a word is a word, and the individual letters that it's composed of are almost always pronounced the same way.

I think digital is a big crutch for Japanese/Chinese because you have input methods that help you write what you want to say, so you don't actually need to remember how to write kanji as much in daily life.
Obligatory "havent read the journal article." But I can say that I remove words like that from my manuscripts to reduce the word count. Older articles I read seem to ramble more and have less information density? So that's another possible explanation?
I guess if a government wants to manufacture consent/support for a terrible law, they need to enforce it against the least sympathetic defendants they can find.

On the mention "original freenet"

In the late 1980s early 1990s, FreeNet was not (just) a web domain name.

Freenet was decentralized idea of how the public (me) could get on the internet without already being a member of a privileged institution (or rich and sophisticated).

I believe the idea of what the freenet was prior to becoming a brandname
is worthy of being remembered.

I'm not much of a tube clicker here,
so apologies if this is redundant with the video.
You need an array of 64-bit values: a 32-bit end address, and a 32-bit ASN. Use 0 for unallocated ranges - it's an invalid ASN.

For IPv6 you need more. It just barely fits if you consider that all public Internet addresses start with 001 and only up to 48 bits can be a published prefix - that's 45 bits - and the public ASNs go up to 19 bits according to your article - that's exactly 64 in total (those high ASNs are bad data from wherever you're getting it from). But it won't work once the next 100000 ASNs get assigned, so you'd better go up to 96 or 128 bits and store the ASN properly in 32 bits.

For cache efficiency you should have one table of addresses and another parallel table of ASNs. Then every access to the address table that pulls in a cache line doesn't waste half the cache line with ASNs you aren't looking for. It won't affect the total memory use, however.

A separate table would hold the name and country for each ASN.
In my case, I didn’t cut carbs. Quite the opposite. The diet could be described as high carb.
You’re describing issues with a specific ORM, not with all ORMs.

And not even that, really. I’m sure you can understand that it is possible to call functions that execute SQL statements inside a potentially nested loop? What’s that got to do with an ORM.
The story vacillates between "it" and "her" when referring to the ship.

Is there some nautical tradition that prescribes that?
It's not conducive to a productive discussion to ignore the vast majority of what I wrote, including my entire substantive argument, while nitpicking on one point of terminology when the meaning I meant was clear from context.

If you want me to be explicit about this contextual meaning: since I was discussing the pharmacological differences for these medicines in people with vs without ADHD, "neurotypical" in this particular context simply has the contextually narrowed meaning of "without ADHD".

I didn't use the word neurodivergent in this conversation, so I won't address it in this comment, nor will I address the question of whether "neurotypical" is a useful word now that you definitely know what I actually meant.

My prior comments in this conversation are now outside of the edit window. So, in your brain, I encourage you to replace my phrases "neurotypical people" and "neurotypical recreational users" with "people without ADHD" and "recreational users without ADHD" respectively. Hopefully you agree that these are real categories of people, whether or not you like the word "neurotypical" to describe them.

Within that understanding of what I meant, I also encourage you to proceed to respond to the rest of what I said in a substantive and productive way. If you do that, I will happily respond substantively and productively in return.

But if I see any further non-substantive responses from you in this subthread, I will simply choose not to respond and will leave you with the last word, instead of spending even more of my my time on a non-substantive discussion than I have so far.

The standard optimization user case story is absurd.

1. You’re not gonna get any guarantees that the optimization will happen. That makes it High Level. Just write code. We won’t force you to pollute your code with ugly annotations or pragmas.

2. In turn: check the assembly or whatever the concrete thing that reveals that the optimization you wished for in your head actually went through

There’s some kind of abstraction violation in the above somewhere.

Heisig will have you learn handwriting, yes. Because that is explicitly all you practice in that method.

Aside: Do you learn simplified or traditional? I learned traditional. I would have anyway because my wife is Taiwanese, but I advocate others to do the same because it is arguably the same difficulty if not easier. And going traditional -> simplified is tractable whereas the reverse is not.

Learning the Heisig method is similar: learning from a perspective of handwriting is easier, and you get the ability to read “for free.” It’s a better approach, even if you never need to write by hand.
I do. There was nothing particularly special about Chopin's environment, yet he was cranking out brilliant, innovative works by his early teens.

They're not that unreliable, but it seems like they're more unreliable than they actually are because they sometimes lie to customers -- it's easier to say it's broken than explain what is actually happening.

You see, demand for ice cream is very weather driven and that means nearly everyone wants ice cream at the same time. But each machine has a throughput limit. So, a lot of the time when they say the machine is broken, it's really just that the demand has exceeded the machine's capacity, and it takes awhile for the machine to freeze the ice cream mixture when it is refilled. If you had a second machine, that's when you switch to the second machine and by the time that one's capacity is reached, then the other machine will be ready to go again.

The machines also do what modern refrigerators do and they run a defrost/heating cycle to prevent ice from building up on the cooling equipment inside. If a defrost cycle happens at the same time as a freeze cycle, it extends the downtime because it then takes longer to freeze the ice cream mixture.

> to storage, frying station or something else that is more useful.

Storage and frying capacity is not at problem at most McDonald's. Two things they do really well is frying and just-in-time delivery.

> by the time you find out the machine is broken, you're already in the store or drive through anyway

A lot of people come with a car full of kids just for ice cream, they go to your competitor when you don't have it. If they didn't want the expense of an extra ice cream machine, they could keep ice cream sandwiches in the freezer and offer those as a substitute when the ice cream machine is locked out in a freeze or defrost cycle.
You're joking, right? A 2mb bundle is *absolutely unacceptable*. People complain about React which is less than 100kb minified and gzipped. This website doesn't even include any images or anything...
Have you tried the new Chopin podcast by Ben Laude?
10 years ago for me math didn't add up for batteries and offgrid but it did add up for solar.

Offgrid added up if you are already offgrid so that ongrid becomes a big expense when comparing.
Agreed, though I'm sure there were more obscure composers who imitated Chopin.

Scriabin's op. 11 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/24_Preludes%2C_Op._11_%28Scria... particularly shows Chopin's influence. I have to admit I like these Scriabin preludes more than Chopin's work.
System 1 and 2 is a myth. There is only memory and computation. For a complex problem, retrieving from memory is fast, and performing computation is slow. Furthermore, when performing computation, there are different heuristics that you can use to think about a problem, e.g. If you want to predict the orbit of a satellite, you can use Kepler's laws which gives you the full sweeping elliptical motion. Alternatively, you can use Newtons laws for which you need to calculate each time step. Alternatively, you can calculate all the quantum interactions between the satellite, earth, and sun (are we going to call this System 3 because it is more rigorous and is "closer to metal"?).

No examples offered. And zero that I know of with respect to Git. This is how all open source development is done with big features - iterated on in a fork and proposed and merged in.

There are so many good things to criticize Microsoft for. When this is what people come with, it serves as a single of emotion-based ignorance and to ignore.
I don't think at this point they could publish a complete report since some information should remain confidential for further investigation.
Under EU rules (Digital Services Act) I believe an automated cache is treated similarly to a pipe - you're no more responsible for holding content in your cache (especially if encrypted!) than a Tor node operator is for someone accessing it through Tor.

German police did raid the home of a guy who ran a lot of Tor nodes. Authoritarians don't need any technical excuse to raid your home - they can just do it if they want to scare you away from these platforms, regardless of how they work.

Ford does this on the MachE and I think the F150L. They have a rotary dial for volume control and that is just mounted directly to the touch screen and uses some sort of wipers to make contact for the control surface.

Wait and watch. Wikipedia will do anything but never leave India. It’s a funny world we live in where foreign NGOs and “organisations with good intentions” operate to control opinions of the biggest set of people in a shady neo-colonialistic manner. BBC’s antics in India should be studied in detail. NGOs and portals like caravan that sprang up out of nowhere and “stay relevant with little public support” (key phrase), serve one-sided narratives which people are now seeing through hence they elected the same leadership a third time (almost unprecedented). These narratives from BBC, Caravan are what Wikipedia uses to back their claims. They are upset that their multiple attempts at painting a leader as a perpetrator of mass genocide don’t stick in the minds of people.
No, absolutely not. You don’t even try to manipulate the DB using object-oriented concept in this case. That’s just a good old I/O layer used on a need to basis. This is not in any way an ORM by any sane definition of what an ORM is.

Not everything is a conspiracy. He libelled a person. A court said stop libelling. He violated that injunction.

The takeaway from this guy’s history is he’s a liar and serial lawbreaker. The outrage in this story is reliant on his account. As a result, this is a nothingburger without more information, in the same category as sovereign citizens claiming repression for drunk driving without a license.
if you’re talking about the matrix.org homeserver’s room directory - these rooms are strictly against our terms of use (section 6 of https://matrix.org/legal/terms-and-conditions/) and we shut them down, and these days have even frozen the roomdir to stop them appearing.

if you’re talking about the wider network - yes, there’s a subset of abusive users… just like on the web, or the internet, or email, etc. Unfortunately there’s nothing we can do about; it comes with the territory of being an open network where anyone can participate.

My experience of Matrix is more that it’s full of FOSS projects like Mozilla, Ubuntu, Debian, Fedora, GNOME, KDE etc… as well as lots of government users. But ymmv. If you are still seeing abusive rooms as a matter of course, please route details to abuse@matrix.org, where we do actually act on them (if they are on servers we control)
resisting censorship is fundamentally at odds with supporting censorship
What information would the state forbid the state to know? The only thing I can think of is if the information is classfied at a higher level than the investigators are authorised to know, but that would be quite an exceptional situation.

There's a funny story that Bill Binney tells, the former technical director of the NSA who blew the whistle on the spy programs following the patriot act, about when a couple of FBI agents were sent to his house to arrest him. He wryly says "I caused a problem for them" by telling them something they weren't cleared to know. The FBI guys radioed their superiors, and then were immediately ordered to get away from Binney
The new Freenet (formerly Locutus) is more of a communication than a storage medium, which should make it less susceptible to the kind of problems you're referring to. That said, even on Hyphanet you really need to look for something bad to find it as the default indexes are curated.

We’re also developing a decentralized reputation system based on the "web of trust" concept. This system is intended to help filter out antisocial content—like spam or worse—without relying on any central authority.

I'm very nearsighted and the giant LED clock has been awesome.
I have no idea.

Maybe it's because there's too much sensationalism and story-telling? People realized you get better ratings through theatrical emotionally charged fictions sitting adjacent to reality and they're cheaper to produce than careful and cautious journalism? That's kind of Juvenal's bread and circuses theory.

Maybe it's a natural consequence of the vast diversity of information channels and online communities so not only do classically oppressed groups have homes but also those committed to hate or messianic cults?

Maybe there's some increased isolationism of industrial society so people end up severing the in person community ties that help to keep them better attached to reality?

Maybe it's all of these?

My observation of the current state is Republicans are pining for a dictator, Democrats are trying to be a 2002 era George W Bush knockoff and most people are thinking "what is up with these lousy options?"

It's the problem you see in almost all organizations: when you focus on the fans, you alienate the base by deluding yourself into imagining a phantom majority a few steps away from loving you but which in reality wants nothing to do with you.
>Considering how little most adults seem to remember about what was taught in high school I'm not entirely sure how much value it provides.

maybe it's an elite small percentage who push society forward and improve it, and it's important that they are discovered and learn by learning and not as important what the rest do with their education.

I think society should be organized around the common (wo)man, but the common man wants the best doctor when he needs medical care, and the common woman wants the best aircraft designer to have designed any plane she flies on.

that's not to say that we should not look for better ways to educate people, perhaps we can find more doctors and plane designers, but just because 10% (or whatever) is all we get out of education doesn't make our education system a bust.

I will say, the original article, this one is rather dull and doesn’t really capture much of anything. OA spends so long on personal waffling and frivolous political commentary, ironically undermining a free and fair election and the will of the people. This article, ironically enough, does seem to actually show some degree of an argument. I haven’t read all of it, but I can definitely agree with what I’ve read so far, that the Western liberal narrative is that they are “righteous heroes” against the “wrongs”, and complexity tends to be lost on those who believe as such.

Although, I will say, more to the specific quote, we have told stories of fantastical worlds for centuries. Tolkien is inspired by elven worlds mirroring ours, tales of expenses underneath the Earth, talks of star people and sky cities. So much wholly imaginary worlds have existed in many cultures, and frankly the solely Western perspective feels rather tiny when you consider that this is a global phenomenon and has consumed far more than just America or NATO.
Also traditional, and I agree it’s easier to remember them than simplified characters even if they are more complicated to write.
I’m not sure I understand why Bandcamp is on the list of supported sites: they allow you to just download the files on the condition you first pay the artist for them.

The fact you can download it with this tool is because the artist is letting you listen to it for free before buying it. Downloading it with this tool seems totally unnecessary and a bit of a jerk move. Bandcamp hosts mostly small and independent artists and labels.

Not so far. I think it depends on whether you think you learned valuable lessons about what not to do, or whether the experience created bad habits that need to be fixed.

Perhaps the least-sexy would be some PHP 4/5 and MySQL stuff, but I also got some good war stories out of them.

I think I'd worry more about shame from being in (or thriving in) toxic workplace/corporate cultures.
"Go is ripe for Web Development" - not really. See youtube videos by Web Dev Cody or Ben Davis who tried Golang in this context and went back to Ts.
