I think it all comes down to ownership.

If I own a piece of land then by virtue of that ownership I get an almost unlimited veto on what is allowed to be done to that piece of land. So if I own a piece of land then I have a right to forbid pollution on it.

If a piece of land is owned by the state then in some sense all state residents have some say in how it is used. They have the right to petition the government (lobby, etc), and I think they should have a right to determine, through the representative government process, what happens to that land. That doesn't mean that each individual person gets their own veto, but that the voters of the state have a right to weigh in on how a piece of land is being used and have the right to elect politicians or approve ballot measures expressing their intent.
> The problem with deflation is that everyone stops consuming in hope of better prices, like Japan...

May as well say the problem with inflation is people stop consuming because things cost more, like Tuvalu. You've picked a random high performing economy and claimed that its existence shows that people buy less when prices drop (an exotic claim). It is an unusually weak argument because it contradicts basic supply-demand logic and you've put your fingers on no evidence.

One of the reasons democracy works so well is that voters ignore that sort of unsupported just-so economic mumbo jumbo and vote for change when their living standards drop. It isn't a great algorithm but it is a lot better than the alternatives.

I would even get idea to make passkeys non-exportable, but lack of import feature for me as power user just kills passkeys for me.
As far as I can tell, yes. It's a grey zone, because it'd fall under civil law, not criminal; so SQLite's copyright owners would need to bring suit against me for it to matter, which I don't believe they will.

However, on the face of it I have no right to use the software without buying a license.
Can you elaborate on the scaling potential here, given your choice of stack?
UMA hurts the GPU too much. Widely parallel processing wants to access memory in bigger chunks than a CPU. If you try to mix access and modification, you lose the benefit of widely parallel processing. Other GPU designers have considered and eschewed unified memory models, to the tune of hundreds of millions in research dollars.

> they didn't really clean the beaches or water that well and just dumped more sand on top of the oily film

Is there a particular technical solution you had in mind? The world's largest bottle of Dawn soap?

It was one of the worst disasters ever, they were writing the book as they went along. Sometimes the repair is worse than the event (e.g. poisoning the sea life with cleaners or dispersants). Sand is inert, so it may have been the least risky method.

In fact, if you spill motor oil in your driveway, the initial recommended cleanup method is to cover it with sand or cat litter and let it soak up the oil...
It's actually a consumer choice thing. Poor countries tend to sell Coke in glass bottles because it's cheaper to run a bottle deposit program and refill them than to sell plastic that just gets thrown away. But consumers don't want glass, it breaks and it's heavy; they want disposable plastic. In fact, for decades consumers have actually bought coke from stores in plastic bags with straws, and collect the bottle deposit at purchase time. (I grew up drinking coke from plastic bags)

People need to start taking responsibility for their complicity in the world's problems, rather than blaming everyone but themselves and demanding someone else fix all their problems and pay for it too.
I'm not allowed to give up my rights, no.

As for NASA papers and such... I have no idea. If I were running a company I'd be able to ask a lawyer; as it stands, I'm taking the risk that the SQLite authors don't sue.
The latter.

The state has also prohibited cities from issuing heat ordinances because some localities wanted to mandate water and rest breaks for workers when temperatures are above a certain threshold, and Florida thinks that only restriction that should be on corporations is that they toe the Florida state party line and otherwise not be interfered with in any way.
The last remark ignores that there are two tiers of legislation in our American system: the constitution (state or federal) which has acted as a “North Star” of sorts, and legislation passed by a body.

What’s one person’s “step outside their bounds” is another’s perception of a “dereliction of duty”.

That said, I don’t have a strong opinion on Florida’s case here in this regard as I would need to read more to understand it.

Pretty much. If you have to resort to terrorism, then your goal is probably indefensible.

Violence is defensible only as a response to violence.

But our reporting shows there are more effective and compassionate ways for cities to deal with these issues.

Their reporting did no such thing. Neither the article itself nor the linked guide have any case study naming a single city trying something else and having it work.

It’s an attempt to create a fact recursively.
Agnostic, and you are quite wrong about a lot of things.

Wikipedia isn't a valid historic source, this is consistently repeated in introductory college courses and throughout academia. Any derivations you make on unsound data remains unsound data and nothing more than your own personal opinion, you shouldn't make it out to be less or more than it is.

You neglects quite a lot in an attempt to nullify, discount, and minimize to suit your biased narrative, like the fact that established estimates show roughly 150,000 people were prosecuted, and the fact that confessions of the time were extracted using torture. Many died without ever being formally executed.

Yes there are legal proceedings that did leave paper trails which I have studied, as well as where those paper trails stop being accurate.

The claims were "collapse as a superpower", not what you improperly referenced as a quote.

When you omit important context intentionally to try and put words not said in other people's mouth (as you did here to strawman), its fairly blatant that you are operating from a place of delusion or severe bias, or potentially malign personal hidden agenda.

Portugal/Spain was known for their technology, seafaring, and maps right up until the inquisition.

This is not wild at all, when you have mass migrations of intelligent and educated people wherever they migrate to benefit from their intellect whereas the places they travel from stagnate.

In any case, the fact that you tried to change what was said kills any possible credibility you might have, and there is no impetus or need for me to respond to you any further.

There is no value in unnecessarily giving a platform in the guise of discussion to the delusional or the malevolent. Best of luck to you in correcting that vile behavior, deceitful behavior is not tolerated by rational or intelligent people.
Surely an ability to balance requires that both sides of an issue be deemed somehow legitimate, no? In which case, surely there must be some sort of "right" which forbids injuries to nature, without which there can be no legal standing to prevent such injuries. In other words, why is there a procedural right to pollute and yet no right to stop pollution?
Why not copy and say it's independently created? It does make it incompatible.

> So the question isn't whether you have a procedural right to stop pollution, it's how to negotiate the balance of competing interests.

A balance where the water isn't extremely polluted would seem to be a given, no?

For hundreds of thousands of years, if someone came to your village and refused to stop shitting in the well, they'd be kicked out or worse.

Washing some clothes in the river, or a bit of bathing? Fine. Dumping thousands of gallons of industrial chemicals into the water table? I consider that a violation of not just my right, but the rights of all living things which use that water. It's heinous, and (I would have thought) clearly, obviously, utterly indefensible.
I would expect that you still need to have some substantial expertise to have any idea of what you are doing, and to know that what you are doing makes sense and also hasn’t been done yet. Someone unfamiliar with molecular biology would likely need to invest some time to get up to speed.

That was always one of the issues with EU, and EEC before it, membership in the UK. There was no education as to the change in constitutional status, nor explanation of how the EEC (then EU) actually worked.

Most folks still had the view that UK Parliament was in charge, not really appreciating the change. That also applied to our MPs, hence the Factomane cases.

Now if there had bee proper education in the UK as to the impact of EEC and EU membership, possibly Brexit would not have happened.
I think it's reasonable to presume that any territory added to a country will become the average of that country over time.

So the better question is actually why is the average American such a violent criminal compared to the average Canadian? Answer that and you will have answered your question.

Likely lack of healthcare (desperation), lack of affordable education, debt, need to fill for-profit prisons, corporate lobbying to make regular people's lives worse, etc. etc.

> Violent crime in the US is not evenly distributed.

Neither is it in Canada.

If you want to cherry pick the "best" of the US and leave out the worst from any comparisons, you'd have to do that for whatever country you're comparing it to.
Yes, but the issue in the story is the belief of some residents that they have a procedurally enforceable right to prevent water pollution. What could that even mean? We have a pretty standard mental image of "water pollution" (most of us are thinking of a plume of black fluid spreading through a lake) but all sorts of things are polluting, including organic agriculture.

And, like, it's obviously not the case that the counter- right exists, either; you don't have a right to utilize public resources. There's a balance of competing equities, and we have a whole system of government, with a legislature to do fact-finding and establish rules, an executive to do enforcement, and a judiciary to sanity-check the rules and make sure they're enforced consistently. It works... pretty badly, but so does every other system you can imagine.

To claim a "right" in the sense meant by the petitioners in the article is to say that there is a rule that exists above most of that system of governance that gives the judiciary the power to overrule all elected authority in the name of preserving clean water. No? Which water is clean and which isn't is a pretty basic function of government.
> I'm sure you realise that I could turn back all of the things you said on your own position. I see endless demonization, fear-mongering, prohibition, ostracism, censorship and lies about White nationalism than any other movement in the West. Your government hates White people. It misleads you to hate us and to fear White collectivism.

I really don't. If you could give me some examples, it would help. Also, I don't think of 'turning back' what you say, but maybe I misunderstand you or just don't know about something.

> White people are a tiny global minority, and yet everywhere we exist in numbers is currently a target of mass immigration of non-Whites. This is not an accident.

Do you mean that someone or some group is intending to disrupt 'white' societies? Who and why?

If whites are a minority, normal demographic patterns that cause change over time would seem likely to cause the minority communities to become more integrated - just a matter of numbers

> are despised minorities in a soulless economic zone? are freely assaulted and killed by foreign authorities?

Could you share some examples of these things happening? I really don't know about it.

As just one anecdote, I've lived in places where 'white' people were a small minority, and there was no problem at all. There was no mention of or discussion of a problem.

The only discrimination I see in my experience is when other people are minorities among whites - then some white people discriminate against the minority.

> Soon there will be nowhere on earth for our people to live in peace and harmony among ourselves.

Your idea of 'our people' is, I think, one that few share. Most white-skinned people don't identify with skin color, in my experience. For example, I far more often hear people say they are part Polish, Irish, etc. I've only heard very few - white supremacists - say they only want to live with other white-skinned people.

That doesn't mean you can't have your perspective. But other people aren't attacking you - they don't even think or care about it. Twisting it into fear and hate is what evil leaders do, to get people to do evil things.

Also, you are responsible for the consequences of your words and actions (and so am I) - if people die, you have the blood on your hands. There's no excuse for it. And it's predictable that spreading hate, especially white supremacy, leads to evil results.
Granted they use the `openai` python library (or other library/implementation that uses that same env var), hence my question in the previous-previous comment...
But do you own a river that passes through your land? If not then what is your responsibility for the river? Do you need to preserve the water in exactly the same condition as it entered your property or not? Similarly, what are your rights as far as the river water that enters your land? Must it be pristine or could it be polluted?
They do have a right through representative government.

The powers one level of government doesn’t take trickle down to the next. Since the state level took those powers, the local level cannot.

The representative government processes needs to happen at the state level in Florida.
Huh. No wonder. In .de that must have been because of their opening times, many of them 24/7.

But that convenience stuff was always more expensive, and depending on your taste and preferences not especially desirable.

Mostly tabac and alcoholics, I guess.

That was pre-Covid. Post-covid full greedflation set in.

Like two to five times more expensive, than the also more expensive stuff in supermarkets.

Memories from about 1.5 years ago, for something on 'special sale' for €9,99(20 Deutsche Mark, Alder, Ey!), a 0,33L can of some whiskey-coke, which sells for about €2,50 to €3 normally.

I don't see that to this level in the .us for comparable stuff.
There is obviously no procedural right to pollute.
Humanity also was described as a virus, see for example The Matrix. Also capitalism, communism, socialism, any political system, religions, philosophies, cultures, and anything you might relate or hate at mental level.

>>> cases where the people overseeing the expenditure of funds were completely unfit to estimate the value of work being produced [...] It's also that a lot of bureaucracy is lies on paper. It does not actually produce any value, track any metric or keep any people in line.

100% agree with this and it's extremely frustrating to deal with that. I've got the feeling that our managers look to the US and see people like Musk and Trump (no judgement here!) making .. let's say "bold claims" - aka bullshitting aka lying aka marketing, call it whatever you want - and think they can just copy that. But Europeans just suck at marketing / bullshitting, it's just not our strength. Now we're stuck with bullshitting "leaders" who cannot deliver results. And this creates a vicious circle where actually capable people refuse to take on any kind of leadership roles as they'll be forced to play that game.
Indeed, however it should be noted that this is only a single attempt attack and which will trigger the tamper protection.

Changing the boot order, making changes to the BIOS or booting from an unsigned bootloader would trigger a bitlocker lockout.

This means that if you don’t get the keys on the first attempt you can’t just pass the machine back to the user and try again later since the next time it will boot it would boot into bitlocker recovery.

And even if the attack is successful the user will still be aware that something did happen so you are still better off with other physical attacks if they are still possible.

Update for anyone who stumbles across this: I've found passkeys are still not ready for prime time :( I tried creating one in Google with Firefox, but apparently they don't allow desktop browsers to create passkeys. I tried setting up Bitwarden to manage local passkeys, but it requires an account on their cloud services or a bunch of work to set up your own local cloud service, which I'm not going to do. Sigh. I was excited to try this, but passkeys are clearly not aimed at people who want to own their own data.

If passkeys are too complicated for me to figure out, I don't think they have any hope for the wider public.
