> If I said it was my political opinion that the gestapo should show up to your door, and drag you, your wife, and children to a death camp - we don't just have a "disagreement."

Yes we do, we disagree on that statement.

> Would you tolerate a discussion around somebody who said they personally wanted to do something like that to you?

Yes of course, why wouldnt I? Trying to understand that opinion and maybe bring us closer to agreeing on the underlying issues would be my first aim, not just to cry foul on free speech and expect them to be locked up just for saying something I dont like. That is barbaric.

You can say anything you want, acting on it is what turns that into illegal activity.
> 80% of the marketshare was concentrated in just 10 accounts, these accounts made transactions at 0-1 seconds after the president's tweet. There was some clear insider training here.

Not ruling it out, but it’s just as possible that there are bots analyzing the X accounts of leaders and other notable people to jump in front of any such actions.

Would simply be a matter of parsing for something that looks like a token address or links to the same. Buck shot some small amount that is sure to balloon when it actually hits. You’ll get burned by scams and account hijacks, but just one payoff would surely cover it all.
Cool, you can loose a shareholder vote too and have a company go off and do something you think is dumb and therefore “inefficient”.

Part of the point I’m trying to drive to is that many of the problems people have with governments are actually problems with organizations operating at scale

I find it better for my phd topic actually. Its paper recommendations are quite well.
That depends to a great extent on how the money is actually spent. The USA spent huge amounts of money to get out of the Great Depression, much, much more than it was spending before, and it ended up in a much better economic position, despite a gigantic war soon after.

Please do tell me which "minerals" we are lacking for the renewable transition.

Did you even read the Hydrogen Ladder?

Fertilizer sits at the top as "must be hydrogen based with no real alternatives". It is one of the hardest sectors to decarbonize since we need to get the price of renewable based fertilizer to be equivalent of todays fossil based one.

Then just typical degrowth. Maybe we should cull the top 10% of the world? Starting with you and me?

Why is it unreasonable to demand that every recipient of money is alive and has a valid age in the system? This shouldn't be a political statement.
I was simply pointing out two common misconceptions.

There are obviously some restrictions on speech in every nation. However in the US the restrictions on speech by the state are far fewer than pretty much anywhere else and are enshrined by law. This is in stark contrast to other other Western nations such as the UK where there are far, far more restrictions on speech.

Im a big fan of GraphDatabase's since about 10 years. I even wrote my own "in memory graph storage" in golang for a specific use case that none of the big GraphDatabase's could cover at the time.

That said - i WISH people would embrase the existing GraphDatabases more and make the hosters support them as standard, rather than abusing existing relational databases for graph purposes.

And to make it clear,i'm not talking about my own experimental one, i mean stuff like Neo4j, OrientDB etc.
Most of the limits on free speech don't pertain to the speech itself, but rather the speech being related to some other form of criminal conduct. Incitement to violence can be punished because of the violence; fraud can be punished because of the theft, etc.

So one can still be a free speech absolutist with respect to speech in itself, while still holding people responsible for unlawful activity that the speech is helping to facilitate.

From the article:

> For nearly 40 years, Argentina’s poverty level had consistently hovered above 25 percent. But since the far-right Milei took office on December 10, 2023, that figure has skyrocketed.

When he started, the poverty index was around 40%, not 25%. Then it peaked to almost 55%, but now they claim it has descended to around 40% again (It's probably down, but I'd wait a few months for confirmation.).

Also, from 2007 to 2015 the numbers were heavily cooked, so take that period with a grain of salt.

And in ~1990 we had an hyperinflation, that may skew the average in weird ways.

> But two months ago, their rent mushroomed from 90,000 Argentinian pesos to 150,000 — a leap from roughly $88 to $148. It was beyond their ability to afford.

We had a heavy rent control, so most apartments were out of the market and it was difficult to find one.

For some time it was ilegal to raise the rent and the inflation was 100% yoy. So a contract for two years used to say something like you have to pay an average of AR$75K, but only AR$50K during the first year and AR$100 during the second year. So no "rise", only a weird paying scheme.

Also, to renew it, you must pay the new market rate, but the inflation was 200% yoy instead of the predicted 100% yoy. So the new prize was AR$150K and AR$300K (with an average of AR$225K).

(IIRC there were some changes to allow increments that follow the inflation index, but only every 6 months. With an inflation rate of 250% yoy, that means that every 6 months your rent double overnight.)

So IMO it's not outdated, but the numbers are cherry picked and are difficult to understand if you never lived with a 200% yearly inflation.

ltree is the one I ended up using. I don't like it much. The way it works allows you to setup a tree but you can't easily move things around within a tree once they're in.

I forgot to say that it's also obviously only a tree, not a graph. It's still useful for some cases.

It has a very good way of querying which is probably fast if you have very deep trees but in the end we didn't need the deep trees so it was chosen for the wrong reasons.

https://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/ltree.html

You essentially have a path field in your record which lists the ids of all the records that are parents of the current one plus the current one.

e.g. if your records are regions of the world and the id is the country name then the path might look like this:

Earth.Europe.Poland

There is support for queries like "what are all the descendants of Europe"

SELECT name FROM regions WHERE path <@ 'Earth.Europe';

Or you can use matching:

SELECT name FROM regions WHERE path ~ '*.Europe.*';
Seems reasonable. If my employee acknowledges in public that competitor x is better, they will be fired. Shouldn’t surprise anyone yet here we are.
That wasn't part of the parent comment, but okay, here: Tesco finance chiefs accused of cooking the books and bullying the finance employees below them to misconduct themselves:

“The three defendants who are on trial in this case are not the foot soldiers who misconducted themselves. The defendants in this case are the generals – those who are in positions of trust, and who were paid huge compensation packages in order to safeguard the financial health of Tesco.

“These defendants encouraged the manipulation of profits and indeed pressurised others working under their control to misconduct themselves in such a way that the stock market was ultimately misled.”"

I've never been quite sure what people mean when they say this.

An increasing number of governments, government agencies and politicians have presence on Bluesky or Mastodon or both. The EC has its _own mastodon instance_ (though, confusingly, some EC agencies are on other instances, or are just on bluesky).

Mostly Bluesky, also Threads to some extent.
Ignorant. When I learned COBOL, which would have been contemporary to many of the original systems, data types were numbers of various formats, characters, primitive fixed length strings, and bits. There was no data type for dates. It would have been roll your own. Pre UNIX being mainstream we used '7-4-5' dates in assembly based from 1900 (this was a financial business but not the IRS).

This isn't a COBOL issue (if it's even an issue at all), it's a data design issue. As many have pointed out, there are reasons for this possible origin date.
Yes, the issue is if there is social security fraud, not if someone is incorrectly filed as alive. We will see how much of it was fraudulent once the suspicious database entries have been investigated.
Here's what a university has to say on the matter [1]

The gist of it, CO2 supplementation can be beneficial to some plants (not all plants) IFF you also tweak all other inputs into growth. Not something that happens outside of a greenhouse.

> Plants may not show a positive response to supplemental CO2 because of other limiting factors such as nutrients, water and light. All factors need to be at optimum levels.

I find it incredibly funny how there's a 1:1 parallel between the way states rally hypocritically around "good" countries and "bad" countries (allies & rivals, i.e. US says Israel good no matter what, Russia bad no matter what) and privacy concerns.

That's why norms exist. Most previous presidents never would have had this problem in the first place because they would never suggest using US troops on citizens in the first place. If they needed to do something that even approached violating a norm, then they would go out of their way to affirm that they still supported the norm and to explain their actions. Obama was given more benefit of the doubt partially because he mostly followed norms.

By going out of his way to flout norms, Trump has brought this sort of mistrust and criticism on himself. Therefore, it's not really reasonable for his supporters to complain about it, it's exactly what they signed up for. Remember that Republicans style themselves as the party of personal responsibility.
"Antisemitic" is also being thrown around a lot towards people who aren't actually saying antisemitic things, but rather criticizing the government of Israel and their actions that take place under color of law.
Hah, I also went down that route. Through my school I could do extra computer stuff, ended up with this certificate at 10 years old or so: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/International_Certification_of...

So yeah, a kid well-versed in Office. My birthday invites were bad-ass, though. Remember I had one row in Excel per invited person with data, and in the Word document placeholders, and when printing it would make a unique page per row in Excel, so everyone got customized invites with their names. Probably spent longer setting it up than it would've taken to edit their names + print 10 times separately, but felt cool..

Luckily a teacher understood what I really wanted, and sent me home with a floppy disk with some template web-page with some small code I could edit in Notepad and see come to live.

I agree that is true regarding freedom of speech laws. But many organisations, including social media platforms, have policies regarding freedom of speech as well. Universities are another such example, as free speech is an essential component of academic freedom.
> viruses in the sea are for marine life

Yes of course.

The Wikipedia article says "Most of these viruses are bacteriophages ... Bacteriophages are harmless to plants and animals ... Viruses are the main agents responsible for the rapid destruction of harmful algal blooms"

Likely next to none can infect land mammals. Such viruses would not have a way to replicate to large numbers in seawater, not in land mammals.
I don't know if there's a term for this, but never updating your tooling also keeps a potential door closed.

During my first internship, we never changed the stack. When I ran in a problem, it was because either
- we needed to bump major vers
- it's too new of a feature and the library isn't actively maintained

In my current job, worst case it's just not a stable feature yet and we need to wait. Both situations need a workaround, but I get a lot more motivated if I get the feeling we're "on-edge" of a tool.
Maintainer burnout is certainly one of the memes in open source at the moment. I suspect that some of it has to do with various pressures at commercial software companies these days that make it harder for developers trying to carve off some time on the side. Overall increased dependence on open source software generally also probably plays a role. If your job depends on some upstream bug being fixed, it increases potential tensions.

There a great documentary called Empire of Dust from 2011 that follows Chinese engineers building roads in the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

https://m.imdb.com/title/tt2148945/

When it gets mentioned online it mostly seems to be racists suggesting Africans are inferior, partly based on the Chinese engineer's frustration with local customs and graft and labour market.

But I found it quite humanising of both the African and Chinese people featured. The director is Belgian, which controlled the region up until independence 50 years before filming.
