If the democrats earnestly cared about USAID they wouldn’t have painted a giant target on it by treating it as a slush fund for partisan pet projects.

Trump and Musk were crystal clear ahead of the election that they intended to stop exactly this type of partisan funding, and the public agreed at the election.

While I can appreciate there are some legal ambiguities around the specific techniques used to enact that mandate, the left appear to be attacking the mandate itself, which is undemocratic and risks creating the impression that they are attending to subvert the will of the public.

This is probably driven by the ongoing energy crisis and other economic factors. If we look at electricity use [0] in Germany we see the same old evidence can be seen accross the Western world. Germany is producing the lowest amount of electricity in 40 years. Last time I checked their $/kW was also awkwardly high.

If the amount electricity available is dropping, are people really going to be adding large new energy-hungry appliances like electric vehicles? I'd suggest not. Shutting off all the nuclear plants still looks pretty dumb, even in hindsight.

Hmm, not sure they can attribute the drop entirely to that. In the UK at least there's been a wave of Chinese brands launching (BYD, Omoda, GWM, etc.), fuel prices have fallen from the high in mid-2022[0], and EVs will soon start paying vehicle tax (£195/year, previously £0).

1930s films were slower (lower ASA/ISO) than "modern" films. Focusing mechanisms were worse: the SLR was developed in the 1930s; most cameras used in that era were rangefinders (or 'point-and-shoot').

Cameras and lenses were technically capable of high-quality images, but actually making such a photograph required skill or luck; the results were otherwise blurry and poorly-focused. Studio portraits in those days used extremely bright lights to compensate.
Can you give some examples of decentralized/open and non-commercial networks? I would be very interested to use such platforms but I don’t know of them (nor do the people in my life, unfortunately)!

PHPStan, a static analysis tool for PHP, has a Pro version: https://phpstan.org/blog/introducing-phpstan-pro

Worst case it adds 1% KB on top (WASM has fairly big binaries in general).

Why does there need to be something else? That’s a powerful reason.

Markdown is subpar and has an awful steward—as evidenced by all the different “flavours” and degrees of support in existence—but we somehow made it work in a jumble of hacks and that’s what we have now. It’s crummy but gets the job done.

Even if AsciiDoc is technically superior, which it probably is, is it superior enough to justify the big players implementing and pushing for in more in places regular users have access too?
systemd-networkd sets up a LAN interface, which Kea then serves DHCP for.

CoreRAD is about the same thing, but for NDP instead of DHCP.

I could have used systemd-networkd for serving DHCP and NDP, but prefer to use separate modular privilege-separated deamons, especially if I get memory safety too.
I think it depends. If the GUI tooling is exposing you less to the actual concepts and builds new concepts on top, that simplify things, then that will hamper a new user's understanding of the underlying concepts. Of course, it is not the CLI usage itself, that is the key here, but the usage of a tool, which exposes you to the actual concepts of git, and the most common tool like that is, of course, the default git command line interface.

I am arguing about the importance of accurately understanding everyone in a discussion and avoiding strawman attacks like the ones you're making over and over.

My general stance on most polarizing issues is to:

1) Keep the debate civil

2) Make sure everyone understands each other (starting with myself)

3) Push towards Pareto-efficiency

What's interesting is that in most discussions, left-wing extremists always believe I'm right-wing because I can articulate right-wing views and don't buy into left-wing Facebook conspiracies, and vice-versa. In other words, both sides lump me into "they" or "enemy" as soon as I either:

- contradict disinformation

- clearly explain an opposing viewpoint (without stating whether I agree with it)

- even use simple trigger words

Very much as you did.

It's okay to understand opposing viewpoints. If both sides did that, there are solutions to most polarizing problems -- guns, abortion, LGBTQ, etc. -- and not even very hard ones.

I'm posting a long-form comment so you can reread what I wrote, reread how you read it, and perhaps debug yourself. You'll be much more effective in advocating from your views if you stop doing this.

The problem with asciidoc is that it doesn't support nesting. Markdown allows you to nest constructs as much as you want using syntax that are easy to use for both humans and documentation-generating applications.

The asciidoc developers don't seem to consider this an important issue: https://github.com/asciidoctor/asciidoctor/issues/1121

While asciidoc has some nice constructs, this made it a no go the last time I was looking for a documentation language.

>> But things like the USA's current constitutional crisis are real.

While I have no doubt this is true, is it _actually_ having any impact on your day to day life? If you didn't have social media, didn't read the news, and somehow didn't even know there was an election (I know this one isn't possible) would your day to day life have changed at all? Look at the past week as an example. Threats of tariffs, headline news, retaliation, and then backing down before anything happened bringing us largely back to where we started.

Don't get me wrong, there are people directly affected by these things and I'm not going to get into whether the approach above is ethical or not. But for most people, I believe you could genuinely switch off and not notice any difference at all.

And even if you know and are well read on the issues (as it sounds like you may be) - what can you do about it? In fact - have you done anything about it? If the answer is no then what's the point in being informed?

I've been weightlifting quite a bit, nothing extreme but all the usual full body stuff plus targeted ones. I've broken my legs several times in past few years, always something unique.

Last one was nasty - bad paragliding fall right on tarmac with my heels taking brunt of the hit (better them than spine). Both legs broken, 1 month wheelchair (before wheelchair came I was literally crawling between spots at home, interesting experience for sure), 2 months crutches since one leg took most of the hit and calcaneus was to pieces (yet somehow magically they stayed together so no surgery & metals required).

Needless to say, after those 3 months, leg was concrete level of stiff with 0 stability working and yes all muscles gone, quads most visibly. especially jarring when next to it was a leg which still was 1 month fully out of order, and just used in 2 months, they look like from different people next to each other. That leg was the stronger and slightly but visibly bigger one before.

What I want to say - losing muscles is a trivial issue, an afterthought compared to losing all flexibility and strength in tendons and ligaments, especially if you used to do tons of sports. Our joints are always the weak spot, going away much sooner than some muscles and bones, taking much longer to build safely (you really don't want to sprain or tear one). Training that takes much longer, and rebuilding muscles can only follow what connective tissues allow. I've spent countless hours in hands of physiotherapists since they come each time with novel ways and equipment use to challenge these tissues, also part of it was in the pool, really cool idea. yet still after 3 months of therapy there are still big differences in everything, at least I can walk cca ok and did a small easy skitour last weekend.

Comparatively, I can easily re-build all muscles I need with just some basic home free weight equipment, you just need few good exercises done in good form, with mild variations.
Having a consistent code style and adhering to a set of linting rules is important, but that they exist is far more important than their particulars. I get bored very fast when people argue about the visual presentation of their code. Use a formatter and be done with it. Same with linting rules; pick a set that your team can work with. If you dial everything up to 11, you’re going to have perfectly compliant code that doesn’t do anything. Recognize that compliance sometimes makes your code worse and pick your roles accordingly.
Not animated or svg, but along the same lines, some years ago I wrote https://bazzargh.github.io/stripmap/ which automates generating stripmaps. The idea was to eventually use this for travelogues of my cycling trips; a map of the route would be a sidebar to the text.

Since then I learned about https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dubins_path as a way to find the path segments; combined with Douglas-Puecker that's probably what I'd use today.

I say this as someone who enjoys reading Rust more than Haskell or Elm -- that looks like a really bad idea for aesthetic reasons anyway. I mean if you want the syntax to look like Zig or Rust, perhaps go all the way there instead of making a kind of a mutant hybrid like this. Syntax is superficial and the semantics actually matter, but that doesn't mean the syntax can be just anything.

Is there some deeper technical reason for making such changes?
>Musk hasn't suddenly changed in the past few months.

Respectfully, that is a minority view.
How about reading the linked article before posting?

But when Democrats did change course they were blocked because Trump explicitly said Democrats passing something on the issue would hurt his election chances:

> In February 2024 and again in May 2024, Republicans in the Senate blocked a bipartisan border security bill Biden had pushed for to reduce the number of migrants who can claim asylum at the border and provide more money for Customs and Border Protection officials, asylum officers, immigration judges and scanning technology at the border.[79] It also provided for thousands of work visas for migrant spouses of U.S. citizens awaiting immigrant visas, and 250,000 new visas over five years for people seeking to work in the U.S. or join family members.[80] It was negotiated in a bipartisan manner and initially looked like it had the votes to pass until Donald Trump opposed it, citing that it would boost Biden's reelection chances.

>> Viber is alive and well nowadays and is the dominant messaging app in quite a few geographies

Interesting! I haven't heard mention of Viber since around 2011. When I said WhatsApp 'won' I meant that wherever I have been in Europe WhatsApp seems to be in use by people and by businesses. It's almost accepted you'll have an account and used as an alternative to email/phone numbers. I understand global MAU may show a different reality and certain locales may still be dominated by other platforms.
Photo quality could be really good with lots of light, the right exposure, and fine grained film.

Age can also be unkind to old photo's. Especially color I swear the dyes fade causing the colors to be muted and muddy. And tend to slowly bleed making them blurry.

My experience with Julia was good, and the language is convenient, however two major factors made me not use it after test projects:

1. Very scarce packages ecosystem. Like there's dataframes.jl file with poor mans implementation of Pandas.

2. Recompiling everything every time. It meant that a Julia program in some script would take ~40 seconds compiling with dataframes & some other important packages.

I think if a language is to replace Python in science, it would need to either be very fast (recompilation on every run breaks this, and running Julia in a notebook/shell is interesting, but outside of pure scientific code, it should be easier to re-run it), or it should offer ergonomics. Pandas has very rough corners, especially when you need grouping with nontrivial operations, or grouped window functions. Joins aren't easy either. Any system that makes this more ergonomic, could bite a bit off Python. But I don't see such.
Yes. US law says in no uncertain terms that the us government can demand anything from its companies, including breaking the law in foreign countries. And that was before big tech decided to collude with an administration who doesn’t care about the law.

For US companies to be in the clear, they would have to split their EU subsidiaries in such a way that the US branch could not access their EU operations or ship new patches, and would not have operational oversight.
No, the issue is resolved for a long time, but thanks.
