There's never been any economic sanctions against Russia until they invaded Ukraine. The economy is shitty in Russia because it's a broken country where the oligarchs are stealing all the money.

And yeah sure it's also about money as well, Ukrainians compare the situation in Poland and Romania with the situation in Russia and Belarus. Let's say that all the Russian propaganda in the world means nothing against such a wealth gap.

Ukrainians don't want to stay poor in Russia's influence the same way that the rest of eastern europe didn't as well.
Sometimes with lncrnas the structure is what is more important than sequence. You can have two lncrna with different sequence but the same kmer structure. This makes logical sense as while proteins often bind to specific sequence the reasons for that are merely structural. In protein you can also have conservative missense mutations that are tolerated as binding affinities may not have changed swapping out an amino acid residue for another with the same charge or polar properties.

If we speak of editing program code, the rabbit hole is deeper as we ideally expect a valid program as a result of a merge. There was a project at JetBrains trying to solve this problem through AST-based merge. After delving into the rabbit hole much much deeper, the guys decided it is not worth it.

>The question here is whether there exists a meaningful category of weapons called "assault weapons" (yes: the semi-automatic and select-fire long guns with detachable magazines, which were designed as weapons of war) and whether they are more dangerous than other legal firearms (yes).

No. Both you and the people you're arguing against think that the category of "assault weapons" exist, but you're using your own definition whereas others are using the legal definition. Why are you clinging so hard to the phrase "assault weapons" specifically? People who are using the legal definition have a pretty strong claim to that definition, because it's literally enshrined in law. Why not say "guns with detachable magazines" or whatever and save everyone from pointless word lawyering?

What do you think about limiting the submission size? Kaggle does this sometimes.

With a limit like 0.1-1MB (compressed), you are basically saying: "Give me sample-efficient learning algorithms, not pretrained models."
Because it takes 1 person, in an isolated spot to ruin a whole chunk of a network. Even though society as a whole works, there's things where one person can easily mess it up for potentially millions of people. So even if that person would have to be a big statistical anomaly, they'll exist.
I mainly don't understand how Just is any better than a run/ directory full of executable shell scripts.
I saw that picture and thought it was a test size model, not the real thing.

It's conventional. There are lots of "how I built a small vertical wind turbine from scrap parts" articles and videos.[1][2] This is easy to do and worth it for off-grid locations. Most people just cut blades out of some cylinder such as a metal or plastic barrel. The Birmingham people just optimized the blades a bit.

Note the lack of a direct comparison with a simple blade form vertical wind turbine.

Nothing wrong with doing this, but the hype is excessive.

I'm actually quite interested in your N paragraphs about why the category is written the way it is, and especially about the principles under which it is (or was meant to be) effective..

Frankly it's something I've always wondered about, but as mostly a spectator of these kinds of discussions I've never seen anyone explain. Like a lot of folks, from my surface-level knowledge it seems arbitrary and likely meaningless. But so much so that it feels like I must be missing something.

I don't think the idea behind PureBasic and SpiderBasic was simplicity. (One alluring property of PureBasic has been the ability to do inline ASM... But in a speedy production environment.)

It's proably more like "there was a time in which computers were shipped with their own programming language, and it was BASIC (interfaced to ROM and machine code)". So, it's "BASIC as the fundamental coding tool your computer should have been shipped with".
International law always sanctioned a state's intervention in another state's affairs. In addition to this very well known fact by jurists, there is also recent works in the field contradicting your position.

"International law prohibits states from intervening in the internal and external affairs of
other states [...] as coercion-as-control, an action materially depriving the victim
state of its ability to control its sovereign choices. This may be done even through acts like
cyber operations that the victim state is entirely unaware of." [1]

Here’s my advice,

As someone who was a developer and ended up in a support role by mistake of company

Now i left that company but here’s how I relearned everything

- Read lots of Code, look how things are implemented. You can use LLMs just don’t blindly use them to copy paste ask the LLM to thoroughly explain the approach.

- Treat LLMs as someone who has lots of Knowledge whom you can ask lots of questions.

- looking at different open source projects is really helpful and having the hungry mindset of learning

I'd have been WAY better off if I stayed at my parents and invested it all into the S&P or something similar, or even bitcoin (inb4 it's going to crash). Then kept building/working/saving, and in 10y I'll have been in a much better position.

I also dislike the lack of mugs in coffee shops. Big chains don't have them at all, and local shops you need to specifically ask for it or they assume a paper cup.

I'm often the only person drinking out of a mug in a coffee shop full of people.

But I'm a grumpy old man that doesn't understand today's world, and I accept that. Leaving work to drive to Starbucks and buy a coffee (instead of using the kuerig or espresso machine in the break room) is gen z's version of stepping out for a smoke break.

I expect managers of small/mid size product teams to buy it instead of pinging me and my friends at the end of the day/start of the day/throughout the day. This makes it so my managers don't have to ping me all day, helps devs monitor UI breakages, and helps stakeholders get easy made reports on changes they requested. It's quite useful.

If think you're following some revisionist history: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Magazine_(firearms). Magazines predate the military's use of them.

The earliest form of a magazine was the repeating rifle and it predates the Civil War. Clips, the earlier form of what we colloquially call a magazine, evolved through the same way. Where it converges was with the development of the M1 Garand that took a clip during WWII: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/M1_Garand

None of this, as I said, is effectual to solving the problem people want to solve so the discussion is kind of moot. "Assault Weapon" is a grouping that some politicians came up with based on arbitrary characteristics. I think it's useful for appealing to their voter base that doesn't want to think too much about solving the actual problem of people who want to cause violence using gun. Beyond that, the term loses value rapidly.

This is indeed a big allocation, but this is misleading in IPv6 terms. This is equivalent in ~2 billion (2^31) /48 allocations (which is the smallest you can route via BGP) or ~140 trillion (2^47) in /64 terms, which is the literal basic unit of an IPv6 network (equivalent to having a single NATted IPv4 address). It seems to be big only because some server providers are too stingy to their IPv6 allocations (some of them only allocating one IPv6 address per server) that it flies in the spirit of relevant RFCs (and sometimes just straight up unamiguosly violate multiple RFCs).

> The real enemy here is the regulatory capture of the health industry preventing competition.

Yeah, the enemy is the industry players, who we are talking about. The industry players are the ones who institute the regulations that have captured the industry, and they don't cease to exist after deregulation. Unless your deregulation proposal also includes regulation of their ability to expand, you're just giving them more power to do regulatory capture.

They get even richer by creating new hospitals that now cost less to build and hiring physicians (and PAs, NPs, RNs, and so on) whom they can now pay at lower rates.

And then, because they have been lobbying this whole time (unless deregulation means regulating lobbying?) they have just done reg 2.0... regulatory capture but it uses AJAX

> tried to enter the Chinese market only to get the crap kicked out of it

That's a massive rewriting of history.

VW was one of the earliest foreign automotive manufacturers to enter the Chinese market.

In the 1990s and 2000s, the Volkswagen Jetta was China's Model T. And until 2023, VW was the top selling car brand in China.

And that was the crux of the issue - VW grew complacent by leveraging "Made in Germany" branding to sell in China, while not investing in innovation.

This meant that when Chinese challenger brands like BYD could outcompete VW in China, VW as a whole suffered.

Already VW has lost significant market share in the US after the emissions scandal and is functionally non-existent in Japan, Korea, Brazil, and India.

China was their last growth market within which they held dominance, and they lost it.

This is a common story for "Made in Germany" - German manufacturers strategically chose China in the 2000s for greenfield FDI, and unlike most other European countries, Germany's economy is extremely coupled with China (France and the UK were more diversified with France leveraging LatAm and India and the UK leveraging NA and India).
Well, I think it's usually more complicated than that. An over-simplification is that there's no free lunch.

If you use a robust sandwich estimator, you're robust against non-normality and etc, but you lower the efficiency of your estimator.

If you use bayes, the con is you have a prior and the pro is you have a prior + a lot of other things.

And strictly speaking, these are benefits on paper based on theory. In practice, of course, the drawback to using a new advanced technique is that there may be a bug(s) lurking in the software implementation that might invalidate your results.

In practice, we generally forget to account for the psychology of the analyst. Their biases, what they're willing to double-check and what they're willing to take for granted. There's also the issue of bayesian methods being somewhat confirmatory, to the point that the psychological experience of doing bayesian statistics makes one so concerned with the data generating process and of the statistical model, that one might forget to 'really check their data'.
Reaffirms my sub. Happy they arent bowing to hypocritical western clowns.
Crazy to me that some people in the comments believe that 80k$ dollar is peanuts. Even in Germany I could easily live with that for more than 5 years.

If I had that kind of money lying around I would move to another country, pay for my whole education, learn a new language and still have enough money for multiple full-time start-up attempts.
The irony is that Luckey and Musk, despite their personal issues and divisiveness, are some of the better defense contractors in terms of actually providing good value for dollar and getting things done on time. Compare against, say, Boeing.

I suggest that the Europeans should get over their moral reservations about military industries quickly because the upcoming US administration is not likely to be as helpful as previous ones in the event that Russia decides to test the integrity of NATO.
News as we all think about it, is dead. It's just propaganda now and it's pretty obvious.

> CCP is not subject to US laws

The Communist Party of China is, in fact, subject to those US laws with extraterritorial application (with the limitations and exceptions the US has chosen to include in those laws), or when it acts within US territory. For instance, see the litigation over Missouri’s claims against the the People’s Republic of China, Communist Party of China, National Health Commission of the People’s Republic of China, Ministry of Emergency Management of the People’s Republic of China, Ministry of Civil Affairs of the People’s Republic of China, People’s Government of the Hubei Province, People’s Government of Wuhan City, Wuhan Institute of Virology, and the Chinese Academy of Sciences under US law over COVID-19 related actions.

> Bytedance is a Chinese entity and US first amendment and equivalent don’t apply to it.

The First Amendment is applicable based on the US government being the actor, not based on who is acted against.

Most of what I'm following here is existing state based CHL checks. Those are reasonable, provide benefits (expedited sales), and are effective in that CHL holders are not typically the people that those people are trying to prevent sale to.

Brady I don't have much of an opinion on. I do know, as a value, that I buy all of my firearms through a licensed FFL. It's at most $50 + shipping. I don't think that's too restrictive.
Why use .sh files over this?
Neither do I, but it's equally pointless to state that.
So it's not a fundamentally different use-case, it's just an admission that shell scripts suck at what they do?
I did this for Freevo box in like 2008 (I think I used Slax). There was a fair amount of overhead to make the different overlay images, but it was very bulletproof.
Okay, can we expand these restrictions to voting? If not, why?
I would disagree, tons of countries with large gun ownership. The basis for it in the US stems from our founding and it's codification as a right to bear arms. It's not one granted by the government, but one upheld by it.

Some could say that if it weren't for this mindset and approach, much of the world would be worse off. The backbone military for the world that affords much of the stability needed is the US military. The emphasis on national defense capabilities and the government and civilian levels are what make us unique. It's not for everyone, but in the same vein, there's not a lack of people requesting help or intervention either.
It is worse than that now, though, because they own doctors as well through Optum under the united health group umbrella corporation.
Idk, personally I completely disagree. I don't want to theme every single app. I want them to be distinctive and I don't actually care about native look. What I care about is that they have a nice design (which is as subjective as it gets, I know) but more importantly that they are distinctive enough in terms of design. Now I don't want every app to have different shortcuts or whatever, but I don't want slack to look like discord for example. And I don't want to theme anything ideally.
That was Tesla.
>But buying things with the idea of selling seems like an organization that's operating way outside it's mandate.

It's unclear whether it's the "law enforcement organizations" doing the transactions, or its employees.
And yet, this has happened since we've been around.

One of the most ancient examples of the written words we have is from a copper merchant complaining about the quality of the ingots he received[1]. The tablet could just as easily have been a complaint about the quality of honey purchased.

Yes, I recall you argued for an older proposal regulating "weapons of war" unmoored from any functional criteria as determined by cabinet appointees + a banned list from the legislature instead of the feature tests that have actually become law.

I agree, but `Just` as an incremental improvement is a much easier sell to teams than asking them to think about their builds completely differently and rewrite everything to fit that.

> (although "forced" is an exaggeration)

Maybe. "Forced" implies "against their will", and prior to existing they of course had no will to oppose. It seems like you know what I mean though, and I'll try to think of less harsh verbiage for my point.

> I don't quite know what you mean by "loving" versus "supporting". To me, supporting sounds like loving, with the caveat that I think emotional care ties into supporting a kid. Do you mean extra things like buying more presents on holidays?

I may have been overly pedantic in separating them. By "love" I mean the actual emotion, which can never be forced or obligated. By "support" I mean everything we do for our kids. And part of supporting our kids is making sure they never doubt that we love them, which perhaps renders the difference moot.

What my corporations professor said in law school was that if you were going to be a large public company incorporate in Delaware. For nearly anyone else incorporate in the state where your business is located.

That was before the development of the current VC funded tech startup culture, so that probably needs to be modified to say something about incorporating where the people who are giving you the money tell you to.
Oh, I'm aware it's cultural.

I wouldn't say it requires that though. That is one way to attract solid engineers, but you can also do it with better pay, better benefits, better work-life balance, or sometimes even by just having a really compelling mission or project that people feel excited to work on.
