As you immerse yourself in technology, you hand over privacy, signals to act, and the framing of reality to an adversarial third party. It is an adversarial relationship as corporations and governments are not interested in your well being (if they appear to this is merely the 'candy' to draw you in) - they are interested in divesting you from your resources (time, money). If they are able to intermediate reality for us, the very means to experience a natural/unmanipulated mode of existence will be no longer be available.
Hence the word "less".
> but the prime is worthless, because he can't sell it, or use it for producing any services he can sell.

You are talking about him. He is on wikipedia / history forever at least as a footnote whenever you google progression of prime discoveries. If he wants to start some consulting business he is the "guy that discovered the big prime", and so on. This is absolutely something he can bank on down the line, it's weird to call it worthless. Those are things that some people with way more than $2m would probably pay for, they just can't do it.

I'm sure that Facebook, Google and TikTok will be delighted to make it mandatory that Australians send in photos of their face, passport and driving license.

But is it good for Australia to have their citizens hand such mountains of PII to unaccountable foreign megacorporations?
It's easy to blame today the parents or their excuses, but back then as you said, there was a community, and much less cars on the streets, and I could go on. You had a bike back then, right? Can you see the 10 years old you riding a bike in your present neighborhood? How much do you carpool today with your neighbors?

That makes no sense. I have never insinuated, and do not believe, that Obama is a fascist and authoritarian. That would be a crazy assertion.

You argue on the basis that from "If A then B" it follows that "If B then A" and that's fallacious, of course.
this is fake legislative action, there is no way to legaly enforce this, short of a
complete and total policing of the internet and peoples phones,and the quiet
part is that by seperating the "law" into
all of its beurocratic bits,such as needing to "ratify" it later....., and then actualy create and fund some sort of enforcement body at some further and impossible to predict time
which all then points to a desperate and floundering government, resorting to the lamest kinds of tacticts to buy a bit more time at the trough

No, I think you having the data is also creepy. I wouldn't want my wife to follow all my steps, and neither would she.
Look at the Decision Makers quotes.

You have quotes from Yoav Gallant (then Minister of defense) like "I am saying here to the citizens of Lebanon, I already see the citizens in Gaza walking with white flags along the coast... If Hezbollah makes mistakes of this kind, the ones who will pay the price are first of all the citizens of Lebanon. What we are doing in Gaza, we know how to do in Beirut.".

You have quotes from Isaac Herzog, President, like “It’s an entire nation out there that is responsible. This rhetoric about civilians not aware, not involved, it’s absolutely not true. They could’ve risen up, they could have fought against that evil regime.” .

The ones from Netanyahu are somewhat more metaphorical/veiled, but for example "You must remember what Amalek has done to you, says our Holy Bible", which is a reference to a passage in Deuteronomy where the Israelites are instructed by their god to "blot out the remembrance of Amalek from under heaven".

While all of these people are extremists, they are also in charge of the country.
Wow that looks pretty much solved! Is there code?
>I don't get this argument, since Trump has called tens of folks nasty names, called Harris a communist, marxist, etc. and called Democrats the "enemy within". Why is the standard different for Dems?

I dunno how relevant it is to say "Well, Trump gets away with it" because he stayed on message with his name-calling: the economy. Calling someone a communist is just a hyperbolic way of saying that they don't care for the economy.

OTOH, calling half the voting population stupid has nothing to do with the platform the politician is running on.

I mean, as stupid as it sounds, something like "They're coming for yer guns!!!" is still platform-relevant, while "They're threatened by strong women" isn't.

I guess the takeaway is that targeted and on-topic insulting works but random digressions into personal attacks that have no relevance to the platform don't?

I only run Rosetta 2 for Linux via `docker --platform linux/amd64 <run|build>` which triggers the rosetta helper in the underlying docker VM to do the right thing. I use colima for a docker VM which sets up Rosetta 2 automatically.

I don't know anything about GUI use; I don't run Linux for GUI stuff.

Linux VM affects battery proportional to how much you use it. For example when I build our projects that take 12 minutes running across all cores, I'm using the laptop at 100%. When I'm not using docker, the VM is idle, and therefore doesn't really impact battery whatsoever.

This Microservice Should Have Been a Library
After reading these sorts of articles I'm not sure anymore but...

I'm pretty sure I've had real truffle as well as artificial truffle. The real truffle is a "softer" more mild flavor that's hard to explain, that's vaguely similar to artificial flavor but different. I want to say it's more herbal or woody and less garlicy but who knows if those are the right words.

The real truffle was sort of surprising to me and took some time to think about but was something I didn't have to "acquire".

The artificial flavor I also like but that did take some getting used to, sort of. I had the real truffle first and didn't know the artificial was artificial so that might have something to do with it.

One thing is artificial truffle oil you should use very sparingly, like maybe one drop for a multiserving dish. One problem I think is that over time people have increased the amount used to too much and it's the intensity more than anything that turns people off.

Honestly as I write this I'm confused about what I've had. I've had things that were natural truffle, things that I'm not sure about, things that in hindsight that were probably artificial and good, and things that were artificial and bad, that I attributed to overflavoring but might have been a poorly produced product?

I liked the article but think it's too hostile to anything that isnt traditional European truffle. There are many different truffles and I think certain oils can be pretty good if used as intended.

It's hard to say if you just don't like truffle. I can see that — it's a bit like "do you like mushrooms?" I do think someone who doesn't like artificial oil might like natural truffle, and I also think there are probably better and worse artificial truffle oils out there.
> And higher income can lead to increased spending on businesses that are paying their employees more.

> The cost of ingredients for a burger doesn’t radically change if a burger flipper gets paid more and the price of the burger isn’t going up drastically either.

These things are two sides of the same coin. The increase in wages is the same as the increase in costs, so if one of them is small then so is the other one and if one of them is large then so is the other one.

> Clearly companies with billion dollar market caps can also be held to higher standards because no one is going to pay more than they are required for labor. Maybe the minimum wage is a percentage of the business total profits and minimum wage at $7.25 is just the floor?

This is only less of a bad idea because the bad idea then applies to fewer businesses. Also, the billion dollar market cap companies would then just contract it out.

> A lot of wealth is locked up in the wealthiest people which could be circulating in the economy instead of being in a Swiss bank account.

That's not real wealth. That's just money. Money is numbers in a computer. Taking non-circulating money and putting it into circulation has the same inflationary effect as printing it. Whereas leaving it non-circulating doesn't consume any real resources (land, labor, etc.) because it's just bits.

However, most rich people don't store their "wealth" as cash money anyway, they buy stocks and things, which in turn puts the money in the hands of businesses to use to hire employees etc. That money isn't non-circulating and what you're doing then is reallocating resources from something else.

You're trying to solve the problem that people aren't being paid enough by passing a law that literally says they have to be paid more. It's like passing a law that literally says housing prices have to be low. That's a dumb law. You can't just magic up a change in labor demand or housing supply. You need to figure out why wages are low or housing prices are high and do something about that.
Again, this feels like multiple problems that are problems regardless of whether unions are in the picture. Most of the world doesn't work like that.
Given the lack of interest in the industry “self” regulating, and/or taking responsibility of, the content; what other option is there. It seems there’s little interest globally.

With my direct and indirect experiences of social media; I strongly support this.

That said; how does a young individual get updates to public transport outages that are only available via twitter/x, or read the menu of the local cafe that is only posted on Facebook?

I do worry about the implementation, especially if government owned. The government has, in the past, said one thing and executed another. (DNS metadata collection for ISP’s, for example) Whilst I have nothing to hide, and am happy to be entirely transparent with them; I can appreciate, respect, and understand the hesitation.

And, if government owned; how long until it’s “privatised”.

Will be interesting to see how this plays out.
> it's made up of humans who are unlikely to be 100% loyal to their boss

If true, that obviously cuts both ways.

But really I think you're just being paranoid and somehow biased against state employees - who are definitely not all "blue" by any stretch, particularly in red states. If you really think any low-level minion, or even middle-manager apparatchik, will risk their jobs by substantially fiddling numbers against the will of their boss, there is no argument that will ever cut through your ideological lenses.
as someone from a very minor east-euro country (~7m people overall) - but having its own language AND alphabet) - one has to invest in some lingua-franca languages in order to be world-compatible :) and to have access to (quality) translations of whatever-other-language-media. For me those have been English and Russian, covering maybe 30-50% of world, as culture (or at least the accessible world). i'd love to have one more covering the east-asia.. but it's a somewhat too late, and nowhere to do it..

i mean, for me, translations of Tao-Te-Ching in english are different from those in russian.. general idea is same but kind-of emphasizing different aspects/interpretations/connotations of the original. IMO English is much more perpendicular to east-asian thinking than russian.. which has its pros and cons.
Most Linux dev environments do not need to be tied down to Intel. In fact it is more performant and efficient if you're working on ARM native on Linux. It was already a good Linux dev env before Rosetta 2 was on the scene, they just enabled more use cases with Rosetta 2.
In my opinion, Hitler would still be Hitler if he targeted Muslims, Algerians or redheads. The choice of target group isn't important,nor was the precise method of murder - the thing that makes Hitler Hitler was that he tried to kill a whole group.

Maybe morality isn't discussed enough. People can proclaim that morality is subjective and hence less worthy of consideration or overall less important as a result of not being a constant in all people; However all of us have things we consider to be good and bad.

If people are interested in propagation of those 3 decided upon virtues, then imho it'd be a good idea to try and explain to others why these are important to aspire for.
At the moment, people share their values to each other with some form of acrimony, and expects the other to submit/change, or just hurt. It perpetuates this vicious cycle of no one being able to productively talk to each other if they disagree. I think there's mismatch on a fundamental level. A lot of spite and lack of desire to understand (some more than others).
Is it the sentences "There are so preciously few places like Earth. How I wish more of us cared about it." you are referring to. In that case it should be obvious even to you that "it", referred to Earth. How did you get from that to "protectors of the universe"?

> Also you're utterly wrong, most times the arguments are that...

Oh, those show up too. But it is the people who pretend that they actually belong to the thinking crowd who comes up with the your part.

It goes like this: There's no climate change. We didn't cause it. It won't be too bad. It's too expensive to do anything about it now. The world will be fine either way, with or without us.

I also do not see much need for Rosetta support for Linux as arm64 Linux works fine for most of my use cases. However it is definitely better to have Rosetta support than not having it.

> It's especially true if you're taking care of a dying my family member. They will pass and then suddenly you have time to remember all the things you did wrong, or said out of exhaustion and frustration, and you won't be able to apologize.

This is so true that it can only be known by experience. And you will carry the mental burden (unavoidable) for the rest of your life, though with the passage of time it does get easier.

Zero-g adds nothing. You cannot even purify silicon in zero-g, you need some-g for impurities to go up and down.

The average distance between molecules of the atmosphere is 3.3nm, this is about 10 times of the typical atom diameter. You need 1/1000 of the standard atmosphere pressure to make this distance ten times bigger. Which will pretty much be the hard vacuum at the scale of the atom manipulation.

Hmm, beyond a bug they had in bun between version 1.0.8 and 1.1.20[0] bun has otherwise worked perfectly fine for me

You have to do a few adjustments which you can see here https://github.com/codetalkio/bun-issue-cdk-repro?tab=readme...

- Change app/cdk.json to use bun instead of ts-node

- Remove package-lock.json + existing node_modules and run bun install

- You can now use bun run cdk as normal

Meanwhile, the people who wrote similar things about Bush (which was a much more dystopian and bigger impact period, when citizens rights were being overturned though schemes like the Patriot Act, torture/waterboarding and such were cynically advocated and excused, and wars targeting millions and profiting few were kickstarted), now party with the Cheneys and approvingly check out photos of Bush and Obama hanging out...
> It simply spits out the next "likely" occurrence

I'd claim that the "likely" continuation is a bit of a nebulous concept, or at least not always trivial to work out. Completing sequences like "Q: Solve `7x - 4 = 2x` for x. \nA: " may require some internal model of basic algebraic rules, for instance. Where present, I don't think it's unreasonable to call that an understanding.
