So is it totally okay that the Jews in the 1930s/1940s had the goal to eradicate the state of Germany?

Sick of this double standard.

Exactly.

That why asking "When was space not political?" is not very useful either.
Mostly sheer volume, but you can't believe how dysfunctional most HR departments are.

Best of luck, but the best tip I can give you to be hired anywhere, is to absolutely avoid the HR team. Think about it, you don’t meet the real hiring manager until the last interview, too late already if you start with HR....

Go around, contact team managers directly, be creative, so that the HR team stays in their place...they are glorified invitation senders and should stay as such.
I don't see the need for sarcasm. Most mid-size and up companies have security departments. And they use tools to make their jobs easier.

The problem with the cloud, from a security standpoint is that is it much more complex than a traditional on-premise infrastructure, especially if you go the "managed services" route and have minimal code.

As a young man I travelled a lot (US only twice, Canada once) in democracies and authoritarian regimes and quickly took the habit of always having some sort of paper on me (passport, copy of the visa and passport, city/tax registration...) depending on the place.

I was controlled countless times, I thought at the time I didn't stand out much but I probably did. I was always unlikely to be detained, but vehicle / luggage searches, questions etc can be a huge waste of time so better show some paperwork that will cut the questioning short and not risk missing your bus/flight/train/meeting etc. It sometimes even helped to get into nightclubs...
I would worry more about our incompetent belligerence. The EU is not a defense pact like NATO. It's a free trade and movement zone. It couldn't help you if the US actually attacked you, but it can provide a market for your goods if the US shuts down the border.

We're not going to invade. That's just the loud-stupid stuff so that people miss the quiet-stupid stuff. Your economy is in bigger jeopardy than your territory, but that's sufficient to seek alternate arrangements.
It is iffy but serviceable. In this case, seems like Octopath Traveller 2 Windows version works well with GPTK. I haven't tried but Whisky, or Porting Kit should be able to handle it. Reddit has some people running it at good fps.
Yes, all IT people in the Netherlands have benefitted from Brexit and Covid, indirectly.

Companies shifting HQ's and hiring Dutch people remotely at London salaries has pushed up our compensation considerably in the last few years.
Yeah, with a 500 MB partition I cannot have both the normal and LTS kernel thanks to that, and resizing it sound like a good way to break stuff, so I'll pass for now
Good info. I forgot about the flux... Concur. I had trouble without flux, but relative ease with. Haven't tried paste on the pads.

Plate + air works better than air alone IMO.
Thank you so much! Exactly, it started as just a spreadsheet for years, GoodReads used to be fun to use but feels restricting nowadays.

Originally I made a "Reddit-like" site but just for books. Each post was a book then people just voted up or down. Unlike Reddit the vote rank would be static so over time the site would build a "best of" list for each sub-category/genre based on user votes. Then transitioned that site into my blog after it failed to take off.
Because this has historically worked so well with the War On Drugs and the sheer amount of people America puts into prison, yeah? Weird how no matter how hard we ratchet up draconian enforcement measures it doesn't seem to work.

And in this scenario, we're chasing away tourists, foreign talent and more. But hey, at least those sweet private prisons get their kickback from the layers of corruption.
Scanning the paper, I don't see an answer to the first question I have if I assume their basic premise (that house price growth correlates to income growth): is the actual profit on home construction constant (or even shrinking)? One would assume it would be, if their data also controlled for confounding factors like regulatory limits, economic stagnation, etc.

In other words, it is my position that the burden of proof should rest on people who claim that the laws of supply and demand fail to explain what the obstacle is to equilibrium in the market they're studying: why if I increase supply does price not come down? My instinct is that it's just more expensive to build homes on the same profit margin than it was over 40 years ago, when their data sampling begins. I don't believe that the real estate industry suddenly had a collective awakening to greed.
As long as you're paying more attention to the road than to your audiobook...

That's the main reason I never got into audiobooks and podcasts. They engage my brain just enough to prevent multitasking, but not enough to stop a part of me from getting bored and restless.

Similar to most work meetings when I'm not presenting or otherwise directly involved in specific topics under discussion. It's a pain.
I have cancelled the cursor subscription, but it is more for functional reasons.

I am confused that the author said he has privacy concerns about cursor, but the most satisfactory thing about cursor is that it asked me whether I want privacy mode at the beginning.

On the contrary, I am very skeptical about whether these websites with free quotas, not only claude, but also grok, chatgpt, etc., will use chat data for training.

If you are really worried about this, it is not impossible to deploy deepseek r1 locally now.
Fits with my experience. Its mainly the bank's willingness to loan money that drives house sales. Home buyers are some of the best protected groups, so its no wonder that its a speculative market driven mainly by available funds and not supply and demand.
That will burn any goodwill in the GitHub community and here. People will get angry and flag ads, but also ignore or flag also good articles.

I joined a project last year which uses Konva inside an Angular application. It was my first time doing any kind of canvas programming, but the ergonomics of konva can be picked up quite rapidly and I've been enjoying quite a lot.

We're working on performance-sensitive project, so one lesson we learned is that all shapes listen to all mouse events by default. We didn't even have lots of shapes, but this was enough to have a noticeable performance hit due to all the event handlers being registered. We pivoted to an opt-in approach instead and that fixed most of our problems.

I had this same observation a few weeks ago. Salesforce has been pushing hard for orgs to migrate from their shotty programming language (apex) to their visual programming language (Flow).

My observation was that apex is better positioned to take advantage of the future of AI programming tools due to being a simple Java based language with high level of abstraction.

At some point this will flip the equation and it will be easier for non-coders to manage the code than the visual graphs.

Salesforce is building AI tooling for their flow platform, but I don't think they will be competitive again the billions being invested in solving general programming / SDLC with AI
Epi and Tongoa: Two cultures diverged after island-splitting volcanic eruption
I tend to rewind audio books and re listen to the last minute or two or three.

Ten years ago I read James Joyce’s Ulysses as a book. I enjoyed it, but when I listened to it as an audio book a year later, the excellent actors/voice artists really brought it to life for me.

I often self describe myself as a ‘gentleman scientist’ because for many years I have done my own research, sometimes in areas where I had no interest in practical application. I also believe that the act of writing is crucial to thinking (I have written 20+ books, 2500+ blog articles). I think too many people put too much emphasis on “work” vs. just living: averaging only ‘working’ about 60% of my adult life has made room for other activitites.

I flagged this entry because it looks like a marketing stunt.

The description of the book was looking appealing, and I was amazed at the good spirit to have a free downloadable version.

So I opened a new tab for the free and paid versions, because I was curious to see the inside but interested to have a hard-copy.

But then, on one side you arrive on a page that says that the digital copy is "sold out"... lol... sold out. And on the other side, the hardcopy page says that it is not for sell anymore as a new version will arrive and here is a link to "pre order". And the funniest is that this link to nostarch does not even work...

Here is a "goofus and gallant" anecdote drawn from real experience.

Goofus and Gallant are both on the autism spectrum, and tend to be blunt in ways that come off as rude. They are both very stubborn about what they consider high quality code, and guard their status as domain experts in particular technologies.

Goofus gets incredibly defensive when they don't understand something. Goofus talks over people in meetings. Goofus is generally rude and hard to work with.

Gallant wants people to understand what they understand. While blunt, Gallant is also patient in walking more junior engineers through their thinking. Gallant isn't quick to give praise, but gives it when earned. Gallant doesn't want to be the only person who understands how something works.

These are based on several real people I've worked with, and the Gallants are some of my favorite coworkers. Bluntness might put some people off, but it doesn't bother me as long as the purpose of that bluntness is to connect with people.

I'm sure it's more complicated than that, and everybody has a different brain, and maybe it's much harder for the Goofus for reasons I can't see. But I have encountered enough Gallants that I know it is possible for neurodiverse people to still be themselves AND kind and empathetic. I certainly hope it's true of myself, not that I always succeed.
New America? I beg to differ.

The United States has always been hostile to outsiders—what’s different now is that they’re not even trying to hide it.

As a naturalized Canadian, crossing the U.S. border has always been a frustrating ordeal. Despite holding a valid Canadian passport, I’m routinely subjected to an extra hour of “security” questioning. Maybe I’m just unlucky. Or maybe it’s because I was born in an "undesirable" Middle Eastern country and have brown skin. One time I was detained for 5 hours and were questioned about "Islam" (ironically, I'm a Christian so I couldn't answer their questions).

My belongings are always searched, and I’m treated as less than human by CBP. I suspect that if you’re white, crossing from EU or elsewhere, you were used to an easier time until now.

The gloves are off.
I think you're generally right about the OP, but I don't see your alternative method as a tonic to the problem the author is discussing. I agree that treating reading as the only way to ingest information is probably wrong, and that the original post tends towards hierarchy in an almost reactionary way, yet at the same time I also see that many people tend to ingest information from other forms of media less critically than they might a book or written piece. I think this dichotomy derives from the different levels of focus we apply to different activities. Reading, even for leisure, demands a level of effort that forces you to focus and, in a way, analyze the information you're ingesting. By removing that barrier, you might fail to fully grasp the ideas that the primary source expressed.

In your use case, the LLM can be a great tool to get a start, but it's much easier to accept that output uncritically, which is especially problematic because it bears the biases of the training corpus. Sure, you can mitigate that issue if you're driven by the intellectual curiosity to dig deeper, which it seems you are, but at that point aren't you doing the kind of leisure research that the original post is talking about anyway? You're just using the initial steps to discover the "foundational texts", as the original post puts it, of the field. The LLM step becomes less material to the follow-up reading you've done after the fact.

Many, perhaps even most people will not make it to the second step. I see the lack of intellectual curiosity as a problem of focus more than anything else, and in my experience the overly rich media landscape of the internet does not concentrate that focus in most people.
Re: Left behind
My elderly parents can't even go out to eat dinner in the town they've lived in for 60 years because they don't have the phone app to pay the parking meters in town. So they have to drive out of town to a restaurant with a parking lot.
I apologize for misreading your post, I thought you asserted that Windows did not come with QBasic. I'm well aware of what QBasic was - it's what I used when I first learned programming. It was an excellent toy for 12yo me.
I don't see the difference. Unless the forks become completely independent, Google will have an outsized influence over them. If Firefox goes down without a replacement independent of Chromium, it'll be the end of the open web.

Rippling's Rat: Dublin-Based HR Mole at Centre of Corporate Espionage Scandal
I encountered the same issue on my desktop, but ended up doing the partition surgery a little differently.

First I resized /, /home, etc. for some extra space, then I moved them all forward a bit, then I resized /boot. Complicated by various layers of LVM and encryption.

This took longer and in retrospect was perhaps a bit riskier, but it had the advantage of not needing to change any configuration on the actual system (since all of the partition numbers/names/uuids remained the same -- they just showed up at slightly different places with slightly different sizes). So the whole operation could be done entirely from a live/rescue environment.
Do you think it's easy to be "fair" to someone who continually spouts misinformation, falsehoods, and retweets or reply-boosts such things on an almost daily basis?

>it is not fair for one parent to deprive the child of support and resources that they would otherwise receive because of a dispute with the other parent.

Only in a rather crazy partnership is that the case. My child's resources and support absolutely fluctuate with my actual income, preferences, and obligations and as a compromise of financial disputes.

Recently I built a house instead of working, willfully drastically lowering my income to 0. The child had all the necessities met, but anything beyond was less plentiful than before and we had to cook frugal foods. The child was not neglected or abused so nothing illegal, but standard of living significantly lowered. It is fair that the child's standard of living lowers with the parents, but your system would have me a criminal were it I didn't have custody.

It doesn't make sense that married people can willfully lower standard of living but non custodial parents cannot. The standard should be the same uniformly but were it the case it would be voted down, thus is a case of the majority buying a sense of smug moral imposition at no cost to themselves against the evil divorcing sinners, to the great benefit of family law practices who often ruthlessly pursue it for profit.
Not sure how it’s relevant that paying customers receive customer service.

Something I have had issues with is games not recognizing SC-controller configuration.
I'm talking about Koreans vs Europeans and you're holding me on the hook for VW vs Tesla. Has reading comprehensions gone that bad?
From what you are saying, it was not a rescue mission then? But Trump administration is trying to frame as it were. Is that it?
There are multiple simultaneous problems:

- A political unwillingness to reign in private capital that's exacerbating resident housing shortages / rent increases (read: AirBnb)

- An infrastructure underinvestment in building sufficient new housing (or motivating current housing owners to densify)

- An underappreciation (Germany) that one can't switch energy mix at nation-scale without first building replacement capacity

- (Europe at least has far more child-rearing-friendly policies than the US)

But all of that is a "maintain demographic shape AND ___" problem.

Countries with inverted demographic pyramids go financially south very quickly.

At best, there are some extremely hard compromises to make (higher taxes on a smaller working base, or decreased social/retirement benefits).

At worst, there are no solutions to balancing a budget and things spiral out of control quickly.

It's underappreciated that "young immigrant labor is funding the country".
man i wish there was a quick lil summary for this article
Unrelated. But what does the string "0x74BD9fe33990d1b49B196C416493186F5BB68c53" mentioned in your profile mean?
MCP documentation is thin on the ground, but I like what I've seen. I think it provides a nice separation of concerns for using LLMs as Agents.

The article mentions a python MCP library, there seems to be a pretty vibrant golang MCP server as well at https://github.com/mark3labs/mcp-go. No personal experience, but I'd usually rather a binary than a python environment install when I can get it.

The other thing the author mentions is that Claude can author MCP integrations and merge them into your server -- sounds good to me!

Gitlab/Github should add a feature that any submitted merge requests automatically emails the last author of the code lines being modified, to let them know about the MR and provide any feedback if needed.

Or maybe someone has wrote a bot/Git hook for that?
Personally I still go on Wikipedia deep dives where you end up going from link to link for hours. I think the author is entirely incorrect with that quote, the whole idea of leasure research is that there are no rules, some will go ask an LLM, others will go read 'foundational text' while others will just browse Wikipedia.

This paper suffers greatly from US-centrism. There are too few examples of proper Austin-like YIMBY cities in the US for proper statistic analysis.

A more world-wide search would quickly find counter-examples of low-wage high-price cities like Vancouver, BC.
If I'm the HR VP, my choices look like this:

Forbid Feedback - this is a one-liner in our procedures manual. For internal Training, I might add a 3-minute "here's a real-world example, where well-intended feedback turned into a disaster" story to any 3+ hour training. That'll be a different case every time, to keep it fresh and drive home the point.

Allow Feedback - now I'm letting my front-line troops, who don't have much training for it, spend time wandering in legal minefields. The time is on my dime. Any additional training is on my dime. The liability (which could easily be $millions) is on my dime. And 99% of the (modest) upsides are for some declined candidate who we'll probably never see again.
A: Getting ethanol is tricky. Lab Alley is the only supplier I've found that will sell it to individuals. Lab suppliers will sell if you have the right business paperwork in place, but will usually attach a huge hazardous shipping fee due to the flammabililty.

> She was loudly accused of having extreme positions on a hot button issue.

She was accused of many things in bad faith, e.g. not being Black, being a Marxist, being a communist, and more. Spending time and effort to address every single one of these would have been tantamount to allowing her opponent to dictate her campaign.
