Recent spending in CA (Sep 1-now) looks like it's heavily landlord associations running ads against prop 33, which would allow for new rent controls.

As a CA voter I find it very awesome that I could look that up so easily.

The post talks a bit about this:

In a perfect world, when your legitimately good content isn’t being surfaced by Google, it’s a failure on their part, and their problem to solve, not yours. In practice, it is your problem and you have to do a bunch of work to help them see that their current assessment of your domain name is no longer accurate.

You're right, the fault lies with the search engines, but in practice it sure feels like the domain itself is tainted somehow.
There is already a biome living in the arid west. It’s hubris and vanity to remove and destroy that biome and replace it with our own.
Great to hear that - I was impressed by pygfx but my immediate thought was that in this age of near universal browser access, it's a shame there's no ability to interact from there!
I'm kind of with Microsoft on this one: the administrator can do arbitrary things to the computer, film at 11. Is there a nuance that I'm missing that raises the severity of this?

It’s only not a convincing counter point if you’re a fantasist thinking we should be living in a Bronze Age utopia.

I suspect if pressed this would turn out to be Motte and Bailey argument where:

Motte: deforestation and draining wet lands is bad

Let's not forget that the product itself is demonstrably terrible. The man is purposely aiming to lower the bar as low as possible, producing content strictly for its addictive qualities and appeal to teenagers. His business plan not only produces vast wealth for him and showy but ineffective pseudo-philanthropy (also highly clickbait-y, like the content), it fills the media space and the viewers' attention with garbage.
Distinguishing work for hire vs personal work would help, as well. Most commercial copyrighted works are created using a work-for-hire model (similar to textbooks). This isn’t what copyright was meant to protect.

Partly proves the point of the OP: cutting out the forests and draining the swamps led to soil erosion, massive floods, and loss of biodiversity.

I'm not saying it had no reason or benefit, obviously it was for economic reasons (extra land for agriculture and human settlements), just that it is not something that should "obviously" be done.
If you could get out of blacklists by transferring ownerships then people can “wash” domains by fake transfers.
I agree with you: swamps and forests do a lot of work to make this planet habitable.
There are two components to SELinux alerting mechanisms, both of which are documented.

For GUI notifications open the sealert app and disable alerts. For journal/syslog reports disable the setroubleshoot daemon dispatch plugin for auditd:

sed -i 's/active.=.yes/active = no/' /etc/audit/plugins.d/sedispatch.conf
service auditd restart

You can also uninstall the setroublshoot-server package completely, and all AVC denials will continue be reported separately outside of the journal.

> 5 people? Last time I was on X, nearly every Silicon Valley/tech billionaire was crooning from the rooftops for Trump.

From what I heard Bezos interfered with Washington Post for (one of?) the first time to make them not post on endorsing a candidate for president (first time in 36 years).

What the actual reason behind it is is unsure, but they say they wanna "return to their roots". I honestly doubt it and expect its more political interest like to not be on Trumps "land in prison because radical marxist leftist" since he didn't do anything like this in the previous years.
Some of these are personal choices.
Some of them are not. E.g. look at the blis project, compilation on windows is still problem.

On the dependency issues, I would disagree. Firsly, large amount of dependency (especially if you working on computational project e.g. on a university cluster) is not really an issue, because in the projects I worked with C++/python bindings, we already used alot of python bindings and dependencies from python ecosystem. It is just the nature of experimental projects/numerical. Limiting number of dependencies for numerical projects (e.g. simuation of physics sytem) is an very rare example given the how little academia care about the software develop, they pull whatever helps them (Nothing wrong with that since they have other things to care about than software quality).

Secondly, It just depends on the number of dependencies you pull, you have the option not to include and write it yourself, which is what C projects tend to do. It is trade-off. Given, how east it is to manage other things in rust-up (e.g. tooling versioning),
I prefer this one.

I think this is more of philosophical difference: modern tooling (where you use tools like cargo/pip with declarative simple config api) vs make (where you do it more by yourself)

There can be some issues with dependency, e.g. breaking change. But, these are not unsolvable problems. If you choose you dependencies correctly, I would prefer having to manage dependency version than to write it myself (Again you can write it yourself if you want). Also, these issues are really rare.

I dont know about instability of Rust itself and where you are getting this claim from. Rust promises backwards compatibility and uses tools like these to make sure it: https://github.com/rust-lang/crater

Maybe you are talking about MSRV as semver breaking change. There has been alot of discussion about this, you can read it up as to why the choice made.

Regarding compilation time, you have to be more careful about what features you use (not spreading traits throughout your code) using incremental compilation, see: https://matklad.github.io/2021/09/04/fast-rust-builds.html

Another one is lack features: E.g. generics (That is why I'd prefer using C++ than C). But, that is one of the features of C, not a disadvantage.
Zig allows default values in the struct declaration which eases the pain quite a bit (while still making it impossible to forget initializing items).
i agree that's not an unreasonable ask. but if code is to serve geopolitics, then we'll get a lot more (and tougher) situations like this to grapple with. perhaps it's just that I wish code was left neutral.
> Indeed, solar PV is the first mass produced product where energy is an output rather than an input.

Fortunately, it takes no energy at all from inside the United States to manufacture solar panels in, you know, some place, over there, somewhere, that I have trouble pronouncing.

Doesn't matter. I just order them online and they magically show up on my doorstep.
> As long as I can rebuild and get a system that works the same way as before, I'm happy.

Bit-for-bit identical packages is the only way to guarantee it works the same way (in the absence of differences in hardware behaviour, otherwise reproducibility can't help you either).

Yes, building in a functionally identical environment will probably be good enough even if the result isn't bit-for-bit identical, but then you still have to be able to rebuild said environment, and nix gives you the tools to at least get such a repeatable environment. Outside of nix and guix I am not aware of any tool that can do the same from source. So:

> And I don't even need Nix to do that; there are much simpler ways to do so.

Genuinely curious, what simpler ways are you referring to?

Linux supports signed kernel modules (and not just on paper, this is a widely deployed feature).
People hear the word "cancer" and think "death sentence." (Or, at the very least, an extremely difficult ordeal.) It's a scary word. Yet thyroid cancer is generally a mild disease -- especially mild as cancer goes -- and almost invariably nonfatal if caught early enough.

If GLP-1 inhibitors get people screened for thyroid cancers more frequently, or lead to improved treatments for thyroid cancer, they will almost certainly lead to a reduction in thyroid cancer deaths -- even if, as some surmise, they are responsible for an increase in thyroid cancer cases. Even without this effect, if you balance [QALY lost] versus [QALY gained] GLP-1 agonists should come out so far ahead that it's almost laughable.

In any case, I believe it is wise to talk about these things openly and without fear.

My very first domain was haunted. The warning sign was firewall blocks against the domain at both school and the public library.

Pretty often. The article's title is a bit misleading to it's own detriment; "terraforming" brings to mind images of using massive furnaces to burn mass to release CO2 on a barren planet. What the author of this article is proposing is pretty routine relative to human societal needs, which is shifting the flow of bodies of water to get water to Nevada. I'm not a geology expert so I don't know the viability of this proposal, but it seems the author is proposing to bring flow back to rivers that have dried up at some point in the past.

I took enough geology in college to understand that humans have been shifting riverflows since at least the Ancient Egyptians (with the Nile river), and Los Angeles' vitality is a product of artificial waterflow shift (the movie Chinatown touches on this at least tangentially). If I'm not mistaken, even Hoover Dam diverts a significant amount of water that once flowed elsewhere, though many environmentalists would tell you today that dams are horribly harmful to local ecosystems.

My guess is that with climate change causing significant changes to multiple regions via weather and climate, causing massive upheavals for large swaths of populations, it might be in America's interest to consider where it could create new population centers again by shifting waterflow.

None of that presents any kind of legal difficulty.

If a game is recompiled under a new architecture, it's still the same graphics and text and levels and everything. It's not really any different from a new printing of a book in paperback instead of hardcover and in a different font. The copyright on those elements remains intact.

If you're simply talking about access to previous versions for researchers and archivists, that's more of a question of archival practices than of copyright. Which is a very interesting conversation, but a totally separate one.
i read the above poster's critique about operating system and API design more generally. x86-64 can do wonderful things with memory access paradigms, why must we keep using Linux and its baked-in assumptions about how memory should work? Let's instead rewrite everything to be memory-safe, with safety enforced by everything we've learned in the last 60 years of architecture design.

That's what I think the parent post is saying. (I personally gently disagree)
It sounds like it's bundled. I'm guessing having your own merchant account gives you better options?
We should avoid words and concepts which places the blame unfairly on mostly powerless individuals.
More habitable for whom?

The point is that we do not need this land. There is plenty of land all around the United States that is "habitable". And given the trend of birth rates and urbanization there is virtually no reason to go destroying fragile and unique ecosystems just so people can satisfy some compulsion for a manifest destiny of occupying every available square foot of this planet.

> when it is said "ICMP packet", "IPsec packet", "TCP packet" and so on, what is meant is "IP packet carrying the ICMP/IPsec/TCP protocol".

But an "IP packet carrying TCP" is totally different from a "TCP segment", and so why the fuck is everyone trying to muddy the waters in this regard?

Likewise, "an Ethernet frame with IP stuff in it" is not an IP packet. Because it's at a lower layer!!!

Due to fragmentation, these higher protocol layers can be split up into two or more PDUs at lower levels. They are reassembled as steps to decoding the protocol. A TCP stream, made of multiple segments, will surely be split up across multiple IP packets. Even a single TCP segment is never guaranteed to map 1:1 with a single IP packet. That's why you can't equate them, and that's why it's idiotic to try and force the wrong PDU terminology in the wrong layer, because they simply don't match up, and you confuse newbies into believing these things are equivalent or interchangeable. They are not!

A TCP segment is a thing in its own right. It is not equivalent to an IP packet with protocol 6. Why is that a crazy idea to y'all?
If a student can use a smart friend to effectively function as someone with a higher IQ, then why should that not be allowed?
Your question is irrelevant. If Bezos or the leadership of the post had an ideological issue with endorsements, they should have decided that 6 months ago or one month from now.

It is blatantly obvious that this decision was done solely for Bezos business interests. Ignoring this and leaning into a theoretical debate to defend the decision is insulting.
Not necessarily. By posting this comment, I have caused "THIS STRING IS HARMFUL" to enter your computer's memory! If you see my comment on your screen, it's too late -- as a remote attacker, I have already changed the local environment! I've even slightly changed the rendering of the webpage you're looking at! Muahahah!

The point is that "The local environment" could refer to what's inside the sandbox. Your browser isn't going to treat my comment as x86 machine code and execute it, for example. Javascript is heavily sandboxed, and mseal() and friends are ways to add another layer of sandboxing.

Some people have internalized that underpaid employees get what they deserve (i.e. they're not actually underpaid at all) and I believe that's one of the factors that leads to the abuse.
I think part of the reason why attack style ads don't work is because you usually need to choose some "villain", which just isn't feasable with more than 2 parties since voters will still have other options than you. Well, unless you vilify every party except your own but that kinda makes your party look crazy.

The closest I can think of is somewhat vilifying the extreme ends of the political spectrum since most parties can agree on that (assuming you have more than like 5 parties).
Yeah, I was thinking more about the grandparent above that said it took 45 minutes and that had to mean breakdown/cleaning/reassembly in one step. I was there in 1985-86 and we did like you said, one crew member did the cleaning at close and let it air dry for the morning crew. But that was also because shakes/ice cream wasn't served during the breakfast shift. Someone had time in the morning to assemble and prime the machine before 10:30am (me).

I'm guessing 24/7 operation changed when and how the cleaning was done, leading to more contamination instead of less.

The hardest part with all of these things isn’t the technology. Usually it’s the coordination. High loss aversion among certain groups causes a reflexive resistance to any large scale project. Memetic mimicry has them reach the same result without explicit coordination.

Any society struggles with conservatives vs adapters. The population transition boundary is along prosperity. Until society reaches a certain degree of prosperity and prosperity alteration shows relative slowdown, adapters win. But afterwards, conservatives will fear movement downward.

It takes substantial adapter power to attempt transformative change. Once the transition boundary is hit, it doesn’t matter how much prosperity gain will be achieved. The key element is adapter power. In a democracy, especially, conservatism dominates past the prosperity boundary. The shape of bureaucracy will impede executive adapters.

America is mostly past the boundary and high-value change only occurs in fields where adapter power exists: opposition to BEVs, space technologies, AVs, chip fabrication, biotechnology, and land modification is strong. Adapter actions occur only through the use of executive power and memetic warfare: using conservatism language to promote subsidies for BEVs and permit AVs, military use for space launches, defence rationale for chips, and hiding biotechnology research until it’s ready.

Terraforming is too high-profile and easily fought. To succeed we need to transform it into using the language of conservatism (“restoring habitat”, e.g.), apply executive power (do so under military research auspices), or make it less valuable for conservatism to fight (many smaller projects rather than one big one).

We’ll get there, though. We’ll make the world better despite conservatism fighting us at every turn. Everything is good. Everything could be better.
Those two printers are also smaller and not as accurate at high speeds. The A1 Mini's slicer automatically places parts close to the Z axis in an attempt to reduce the issues and it uses input shaping, but given the printer can lift itself off the ground at default speeds that's not a perfect solution either.

There's a reason the larger and faster printers often use the CoreXY design instead.
