It would be great use of my money, were I a billionaire, to build a vacuum-insulated sodaduct & cervisiaduct as a ring going around Europe perhaps with a monorail on the bottom (for convenient repairs) & photovoltaic cells on top to power it the monotail. Technically you can have two monorails for one track, one above and one below, so the upper monorail could be used for something else as well. The ice & carbon dioxide would be delivered separately to keep the the drinks fresh, and there would be few be a different pipe for drinks from different German & French & Spanish districts inside the cervisiaduct.
Philosophy was the first science. Aristotle himself developed and popularized the scientific method as we know it. Saying you hate philosophy is like saying you hate science.

OP's post comes off as an angry man yelling at clouds, imagining himself being persecuted by a cabal of philosophers who are telling him what to think.

In truth, there is a great deal of philosophy which has nothing to do with the philosophy of mind. There is enough in the fridge for anyone to find something useful and enlightening, but with an attitude like OP's, it will be rejected out of bias and spite before given a fair chance.

Some philosophy is fundamental to developing a mature understanding the world that surpasses that of previous civilizations. Some philosophy deals with core issues like the very nature of existence, or the nature of ethics. Stuff that will completely change how you choose to interact with the world and live your life. This is why people feel compelled to educate others who adopt such an anti-science or anti-philosophy stance.

It isn't a false equivalency. I'm undermining the entire assertion by pointing out the 'over' in 'overreach' is entirely in the eye of the beholder.

By definition, "overreach" must be beyond the point of acceptable action, so if you're going to use that term you need to say why it's overreach.

I think michaelscott, as an outsider, has bought the propaganda the right has pushing for decades, without realizing it's a falsehood.

By recasting it I mean to provide context about why it's a falsehood.

Some nudists think it's overreach for the government to require clothing in public? That's not really a left/right thing.

Is it government overreach to have Daylight Saving Time? That's another one that seems equally pro/anti.

A bunch of those philosophers and others were probably gay (or at least some kind of not straight) IMO. I get that sense from Wittgensteins letters especially.

I’m not saying that they were wearing eye shadow while writing or anything like that, in fact I think that the burden of being different weighed on them very heavily, hence the philosophy.

> The left lost the election because the general public got sick of the nonsense and hysterics.

The left lost the election because a ton of people thought "hey, better stay home than vote for Kamala because she's too cozy with Israel", and look where it got them, not only do they now have Trump in power but Netanyahu has no one to hold him in check.

Trump got 74M votes in 2020 vs 77M in 2024, the key thing is that Biden got 81M votes in 2020 whereas Harris got 75M votes.

The Democrats lost more people to non-voterism than they lost to Trump.

Luggage tipp: Have exactly one, easy to grab main piece at luggage that goes on your back or on wheels. Have at most one tiny extra piece to carry. The second your luggage exceeds three it becomes a massive hassle: You cannot hold on to things, you will lose one piece and your fun trip descends into a disorganized mess.

Luggage which clips together like a storage/day backpack combo is very valuable for this: Your backpack might be comically large, but you can haul all your stuff with free hands. At your accomodation, you can leave the large bag and continue on your day pack.

Free hands are critical when travelling by train or bus, or if you just wanna get a snack and drink.
What terrible advice. Your public variables are so much easier to refactor if/when your data changes when you have simple accessors methods around them. Having accessors for data have saved my ass multiple times when I've had to do things such as a) migrate the data transparently b) remove data and use computation instead c) debug reads or writes of data.

The last point, sure you can have a breakpoint on a memory address but if you have a getter/setter method its trivial to put a breakpoint in there, but I bet that if you have to set a memory brekapoint you have to waste time googling how do that (at least with GDB)

Raw data POD type structs are useful but only when the scope is limited.

It is disappointing to see some uneducated people actually consider cooperation with China. They’re an actual literal dictatorship that commits genocides, and their party didn’t hesitate to kill millions of their own. It’s absurd to think that EU values align at all with the CCP.

The cost of bolstering the CCP will be far greater than having a reset in tariffs or military funding from the US. The best the EU can do is responsibly govern itself - which means completely changing its ruling bureaucracy - and upholding ties with a new America, even if the terms are different.
US will have to prove that these big changes are a sogn towards more stability, for others to keep saving in USD. Gold markets are pretty insane nowadays, which makes me think of my own savings.

I don't know if there's an available tool to do it, but "assuming these sources are aligned in time, remove this reference B from that recording A" would be quite a nice undergrad problem. You'd do something like cross-correlate A with B, multiply B by the correlation coefficient and then subtract the result from A. In the frequency domain, because that makes things a little easier.

The next question on the problem would be "Give at least three reasons why this doesn't perfectly remove the reference sound," of course.

So, 'bc' just has the (big) rationals. Rationals are the numbers you could make by taking one integer (say 5 or minus sixteen trillion and fifty-one) and dividing it by some positive integer (such as three or sixty-two thousand)

If we have a "Big Integer" type which can represent arbitrarily huge integers, such 10 to the power 5000, we can use two of these to make a Big Rational, and so that's what bc has.

But the rationals aren't enough for all the features on your calculator. What's the square root of ten ? How about the square root of 40 ? Now, multiply those together. The correct answer is 20. Not 20.00000000000000001 but exactly 20.

I really appreciated airport lounges when I was flying a lot, especially when there were long connections or delays. I don't have mine any longer given I'm trying to make fewer but longer trips. And, as you say, they've gotten overcrowded in many cases. They don't also really help much for early AM departures which are what I'm doing a lot of the time. These days, $400+ a year is better spent on other travel amenities.

Perhaps. Seeing my mother's inability to keep a spouse certainly doesn't help. And seeing everyone else around me become divorced doesn't help either.

All of the fun I had as a young man served as a constant reminder that my marriage was a downgrade from my life as a single man.

Being married to someone means that you have to take their baggage and their family's baggage.

I grew tired of being the only competent man for five women to rely on. Not only did I have to solve my wife's problems, but I had to solve her mother's problems. And her single-mom sister's issues. And the issues of her two best friends.
I don't think this even needs to be gendered. I'm not insinuating any kind of bias in your comment, it just got me thinking that this is more "people" than a gender divide where women need more self reflection and men need lower standards.

People are selfish, self interested, & caught up in their own lives. Many people suck at consistently thinking about someone other than themselves, and are not good at sacrifice or compromise. It's truly a special thing when you find someone willing to put in equal effort.

Raw materials like steel used in bulldozers, as well as machinery and supplies, are often exempt from sales tax, especially when the finished products are exported.

Nevertheless, in some scenarios, sales tax can indeed cascade and be charged multiple times during the manufacturing process, so even if it's not charged at the final step, there's still a component of it in the final price to the buyer.

This is not a hidden tariff by other countries against US products. Other countries have no control over this. The US government simply sucks at taxation because it has not transitioned to VAT, and products cost more to manufacture than they would have under a better tax system.

I have some issues with the sentiments in this thread, which seems to be saying that stories are good in real life discourse too. To some extent I agree, but I think it is overexaggerated.

TL;DR: This is all well and good in current society, but I feel that says a lot about the flaws of current society.

"Reality is stranger than fiction because fiction needs to make sense, but reality doesn't". Stories are written for a purpose, whether that's to entertain, to instruct, etc.. That's why it makes sense to have plot twists and unrealistic tension. Stories are meant to be contrived to some degree; that's what makes them valuable. But I think real life should have a plot that isn't like a tidy, comfortable story. If there is to be a plot, it should be complex and strange.

> I used to be the person who would always tell it as it is - it doesn't work in general, because often times people don't want to hear it.

Indeed, but I'm not sure then that couching your language towards them is better. It won't ease most people into your narrative. It will just allow them to sink further into a narrative. I think moderation is generally correct, but moderation that isn't the golden mean can also be quite harmful. (See "Letter from Birmingham Jail" for MLK Jr.'s thoughts on white moderates during the Civil Rights movement.)

> small talk and euphemisms evolved for a good reason

Evolution by natural selection does not work like this. "I observe feature A" does not remotely mean "feature A is beneficial". It just means "feature A is not a dealbreaker". We as humans have certainly evolved for gossiping and storytelling, and it is often beneficial to appease the group, but attributing a bigger moral reason on that line is doubtful. It is not necessarily good that we engage in so much "small talk and euphemisms" (I would even say it's quite bad), it's just that we've made it comfortable to live like that.

> I find that using "softer" language, since it requires more work, also often sharpens my message to really say what I think is important.

I disagree on both points. "Softer language" is easier to grasp for since we are accustomed to it, and even for the speaker it may be a hassle to distinguish using it carelessly versus deliberately. Since it works as a shield and intentionally employs ambiguity, I doubt it communicates the actual message well.

I am myself a big fan of stories, and I do see value in using them in real life to enhance communication. But I think this requires a lot more care and scrutiny than we normally use. Our whole culture around communication is flawed.
If you're an active Reddit user, you've probably wanted to use ChatGPT to summarize or analyze threads. But the problem is that ChatGPT usually can't access Reddit data or see threads in their actual form.

The article doesn't suggest making the properties public, it makes valid suggestions IMHO (though I don't agree with all). I would recommend reading the article.
Effectively what I was going to say. People are way too hung up on making open source software into a moral crusade that they completely blind themselves to the legitimate complaints about gaps between the open source and commercial options. They will say something like "well I don't need that feature" or "I never noticed a problem with that" and just overall get very defensive instead of simply acknowledging that the use cases of others may be different or that they have different tolerances for quirks in the software.
Agreed. My attitude may change. But I think I'm doing everything correctly during these first few years out of marriage. I didn't want to be one of those who jump right into another relationship. That isn't healthy for anyone, particularly my son.
It depends on the local norms. Where I live, 1,004 is decimal, 1 004 or 1'004 is 1004 which makes it even more clear than the en-US default. That is, the 1.004 variant is never used, and if it is, it is assumed to be a decimal (misspelling) of 1,004.

The reason this impacts other people is because Bluesky wants to discourage “dunk” culture in which one user continues to make fun of or harass another user who has indicated they do not wish to interact or participate.

95% of the supposed issues with C could be solved by a new standard library, integrating the debugger into the compiler as the default build/run environment (with auto address sanitisation, frame protection, etc. etc.), and a default strict mode error checking.

It would then be actually really hard to successfully run a C program (in the debugger) with any problems. Under these conditions it'd be easy to imagine most C programs running with fewer bugs (, leaks, etc.) than Rust programs.
I’ve written a lot of C# and have heard the proclaimed reasons. I’ve stopped doing this over time. You almost never need the interface and when you do, I haven’t found it hard to add.

Maybe you do this by default if you are developing an external API for versioning reasons but that’s such a niche use case.
