Apartments in Australia work seemingly different to the rest of the world where there is almost never a central landlord that owns the whole building, but every apartment has an individual owner and the rules are voted on by the owners.

Sometimes the state government steps in to make certain rules invalid such as banning pets. But an attempt to let people dry their clothes on the balcony recently failed. And I can see almost zero chance of allowing solar panels since they do have a significant aesthetic impact on the building along with safety concerns around panels getting ripped off in the wind. Most buildings already have solar on the roof but it mostly just powered the lifts and hallway lights.

Yes you probably wouldn't need to go that old. As I recall Pentium 4 motherboards of the generation around p4 "northwood" and "prescott" still had floppy drive headers commonly built into them. Probably there's some motherboards that have FDD headers and are also new enough to run an AMD64/x86-64 understanding CPU to run a current linux kernel without having to hunt down i386-everything for the operating system install.
Thanks, I'll look more into this.

With little snitch, I use "notify and I select allow or deny". And it works for ip addresses (4 and 6) as well as domains. It's a powerful system, but if I can get similar with domain allowlisting, that would be a worthwhile improvement.

FQ toxicity is likey caused by SNP in a specific gene related to pharmaceutical metabolism (one of the CYP450s). I believe this was published in the literature.

Another possibility is that FQ toxicity is caused by certain genes relating to detoxifying (GSH, COMT, etc) - where the body incorrectly metabolises it, leading to toxicity against cells.

Yeah, on this one I can only speculate on the real-life endgame Trump imagines he's going to negotiate using this bluff.

> Do you really believe that the POTUS cannot cancel contracts he feels are a waste of taxpayer money (and that position will stand up in court)?

Let's assume you're right.

There's a video of a farmer going around who had invested some money in an IRA project (passed under Biden) and he's complaining that the money he is contractually obliged is being held up by Trump.

So assuming Trump had the right to cancel this contract and it will hold up in court, what does that do for the government's ability to stimulate economic activity by passing legislation? How can people trust a law if it can become null and void upon the next admin coming in?

The farmer in question says the only reason he engaged in this activity was because he determined in the contract that the money was guaranteed. Meaning that although he made sure he wouldn't be in this situation, he's nonetheless in it because of POTUS, making the contract he signed with the federal government basically worthless.

So in the future, if the government needs to stimulate production of a certain crop through economic incentives, are farmers going to listen, knowing that the money they will need to depend on in 4 years may or may not exist depending who wins the next election? How can we make long term plans as a country this way? What method will the government turn to if can't use statutory incentives to stimulate economic activity?
Let them fight.

Select Query Returns Empty Array Despite Existing Data with RLS Enabled #33499
*Description:*

I'm experiencing an issue where a `SELECT` query on the `projects` table returns an empty array, even though there is data present in the table. This issue occurs when Row-Level Security (RLS) is enabled. Disabling RLS allows the query to return the expected data.

*Circumstances*:

This occurs under the following conditions:

- The user_id column is unique and directly linked to auth.users.
- Row-Level Security (RLS) is enabled on the projects table.
- An RLS policy is in place to allow all / one users/ user to select their own data / data.
- Executing the query in the SQL editor also returns an empty result.

*Steps to Reproduce:*

1. Enable RLS on the `projects` table:
```sql
ALTER TABLE projects ENABLE ROW LEVEL SECURITY;
```
2. Define the following RLS policy to allow users to read their own projects:
```sql
CREATE POLICY "Users can read their own projects"
ON projects
FOR SELECT
USING (auth.uid() = user_id);
```
3. Execute the following query using the Supabase client:
```javascript
const { data, error } = await supabase
.from('projects')
.select('')
.eq('user_id', '<USER_ID>');
```

*Expected Behavior:*

The query should return the projects associated with the specified `user_id`.

*Actual Behavior:*

The query returns an empty array (`[]`), despite the `projects` table containing relevant data.

*Additional Information:*

- *Authentication:* The user is authenticated, and `auth.uid()` returns the correct user ID.
- *RLS Policies:* The only active policy on the `projects` table is the one mentioned above.
- *Testing:* Disabling RLS on the `projects` table allows the query to return the expected data.

I've also referred to the Supabase troubleshooting guide on this topic but haven't found a resolution:

[Why is my select returning an empty data array and I have data in the table?](https://supabase.com/docs/guides/troubleshooting/why-is-my-s...)

Additionally, I came across a similar discussion, but the solutions provided did not resolve my issue:

[SOLVED Empty Array · supabase · Discussion #3780](https://github.com/orgs/supabase/discussions/3780)

*Request for Assistance:*

I'm seeking guidance on why the query returns an empty array when RLS is enabled, despite having the appropriate policy in place and existing data that matches the query criteria. Any insights or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Please ensure to replace `<USER_ID>` with the actual user ID you're testing with. Providing specific details and referencing related discussions can help the Supabase team understand and address your issue more effectively.
> I'm beginning to think that the best way to approach a problem is by either not being aware of or disregarding most of the similar efforts that came before.

This is an "Einstein failed Math" fallacy. It's true that novel and notable work tends strongly not to be bound by existing consensus, which when you say it that way is hardly surprising. So yes, if consensus is wrong in some particular way the people most likely to see that are the ones least invested in the consensus.

But most problems aren't like that! Almost always the "best" way to solve a problem, certainly the best way you're going to solve the problem, is "however someone else already solved it". But sometimes it's not, and that's when interesting stuff happens.
While I wholly agree with the premise, I feel the ABA has lost much of its authority as it has become an extremely partisan group. Its leaders donate lots of money to Democrat candidates, its criticisms—while often valid—are entirely one-sided, and recently the ABA has been sued for illegal "reverse" racial discrimination.

As an attorney, I will say I don't know any fellow attorneys who are currently members of the ABA who are right of center.

OpenAI's real moat is all in their know-how about developing LLM architectures and training them. That stuff can be expected to be very hard to replicate, no matter how hard anyone tries. The best case for OpenAI is actually if the DeepSeek R1 improvements are genuine, and OpenAI can adopt them to make their upcoming models even more capable than they would be otherwise.

Interesting idea! Clifford Cocks also made a breakthrough in/invented Public Key Encryption without realising it https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clifford_Cocks
In American English "apartment" almost always refers to a single residence in a large building. The large building is often called an "apartment building."

The phrase "the vast majority of apartments don't have to pay energy bills" sounds like a claim that each apartment (i.e. each tenant) doesn't have to pay their own energy bills, because it would be very odd to refer to an entire apartment building (or the building owner/manager) as as "apartment."

I can't read the article you linked so I'm not sure if it mentions this, but IIRC one of the reasons for ditching the penny in Canada was that it cost more than a penny of copper to make a penny out of copper.

Now when we buy something we get told a rounded-off price (e.g. $3.72 is told to us as $3.70) but if we pay digitally (i.e. by card) then we get charged the exact amount.
Same. Sometimes I've been asked by someone walking the queue to remove my boots. Never do, never a problem. I'm sure they just walk the queue so it feels like "something" is happening and you're not just waiting in yet another interminable queue.
Next: Trumps blasts OpenAI as "un-American" and DOJ opens an investigation into "improper x". Investors get nervous given Trump's unpredictability, share price drops. Elon et al get it for half price. Nice little scam.

If the point of the research isn't to create non-individualistic racist policies or to tear down affirmative action policies on the basis of "it's wasted effort" then what's the goal? If we could identify some genetic marker that increased the probability by a few percentage points of identifying intellectual marathon runners would that justify discriminating to favor them at the expense of others? Many dystopian scifi stories start from a similar premise.
Is anti-confirmation bias a thing? More likely to notice politics when it is not your own politics.
Shouldn’t we be trying to (have local manufacturing) to reach the goal of a better life for our people, rather than sacrificing that life in order to (have local manufacturing)?

Isn’t “oh we’ll just make sure our population can’t leave” a tad dystopian?

I see your point. You are arguing that the fact that the host did this could convey additional information that would affect the distribution. This criticism still does not seem valid to me because this argument can be used to alter the correct answer to a large number of problems.

Consider the question of whether John Doe did well on his mathematics examination. This would seem like a straightforward thing depending on the questions and his answers. We can assume they are provided as part of the problem statement. We could also assume that a definition for “did well” is included. We could then consider a situation where under chaos theory, his act of taking the examination caused a hurricane that destroyed his answer sheet before it had been graded. This situation was not mentioned as either a possibility or non-possibility. However, we had the insight to consider it. Thus, we can say we don’t know if he did well on his mathematics examination, even though there is a straightforward answer.

Another possibility is that game show could have rigged things without telling us, with a 90% chance of the prize is behind behind door #1, a 9% chance that the prize is behind door #2, and a 1% chance that the prize is behind door #3. Which door was the initial choice would then decide whether the player should change the choice, rather than anything the host does. However, this was not told to us, but to avoid saying that choosing the other door is always the answer, we decide to question the uniformity of the probability distribution, despite there being no reason to think it is non-uniform. Thus, assuming that the game show might have altered the probability distribution, we can say not only that the host’s intent does not matter, but we don’t know the answer to the question.

To be clear, my counterpoint is that these considerations produce different problems and thus are not relevant.

On one hand, I used to look at these super successful people with a pretty heavy dose of envy. Now I honestly don't, because I find their behavior reprehensible and disgusting, and just so childishly stupid.

I almost put that, but I was reading the entry for that in etymonline and it didn't fit what I was saying exactly. i.e. it wasn't "a norange" at any point in English (or was it?), but the process happened in another language that we borrowed "orange" from, and it would have been too much of a tangent to get into that:

> Loss of initial n- probably is due to confusion with the definite article (as in une narange, una narancia), but also perhaps was by influence of French or "gold." https://www.etymonline.com/search?q=orange
> Musk is offering to buy the forprofit from the nonprofit

But that's not what the article says. It specifically says he's offering "to buy the nonprofit that controls OpenAI", not the for-profit that it owns. That's why I'm confused.
