  • Also, prior to the old testament being in the form it is today, the character that would become the one god was just a minor god within the Canaanite pantheon. A lot of the old testament makes more sense when read with that context.

    White House Official: Why do we have the right to take Greenland? Because we live in a world governed by strength, by power. We have power. Nobody can fight the United States militarily

  • No. But the rest of the world wouldn't survive either.

  • Protests erupt in US cities over Trump’s military intervention in Venezuela

    Jump

  • Discourse 5 years from now: Why are there so many Venezuelans trying to cross our southern border? No solution other than increasing immigration enforcement I guess.

  • 'She is going to pay a very big price': Trump issues new threat to interim leader of Venezuela

  • Would China agree to that. They don't want to get dragged into a conflict with the US. Besides, if the US's strategy is that we control the Americas and stay out of the rest of the world, China will happily take that deal and go after Taiwan.

  • Its your fault you didint know about the "no posts on alternating Saturdays while Saturn is in retrograde" rule

    Jump

  • There's been experiments around changing speed limits. What they found is that people consistently speed by about a constant amount over the posted limit, so they keep the posted limit lower, and have all enforcement be at around 10mph over it.

    Yay path dependence!

  • As someone who actually does read the rules for a bunch of places; they often have no relationship to what actually gets enforced.

    This isn't just a problem for social media communities. A bunch of business use boilerplate contracts and terms-of-service that again have no relation to how they actually operate.

  • Xi Jinping vows to reunify China and Taiwan in New Year’s Eve speech

  • The full expression is "all models are wrong, but some are useful"

  • Take your SFW selfies somewhere else.

  • Still don't do that in a public bathroom. Someone else may walk in.

  • For new construction, nothing.

    For existing construction, it requires you to run a new circuit.

  • It’s time to accept that the US supreme court is illegitimate and must be replaced | Ryan Doerfler and Samuel Moyn

    Jump

  • You do not need a constitutional amendment. Until 1911; part of a Supreme Court Justice's job was "riding circuit", to serve on more local circuit courts. This practice was established and abolished by Congress. Congress has the existing constitutional authority to assign Justices to circuit courts.

    There is also a recently proposed TERM act, which would promote Justices to senior Justices after 18 years. A senior Justice is still a Justice, but would not actively decide cases unless there was a shortage of active Justices.

    Congress could also impeach some of the current Justices. Either for partisan political reasons; perjury at their confirmation; or blatant corruption.

  • Suggestions for first C project

  • I don't know about Europe. But the US (or at least the portion of the US federal government I deal with) has been trying to ban us from using memory unsafe languages for as long as I can remember. For us, Rust isn't replacing C; it is replacing Ada. The only difference is that they have stopped granting exceptions for new code bases in memory unsafe languages.

  • A new ‘solution’ to student homelessness: a parking lot where students can sleep safely in their cars

    Jump

  • You can easily buy a used car for less than two months rent around here. Less if you shop around for a deal. That car provides transportation, shelter, and does not need to be repurchased every month.

  • Even without AI, Web Development was destined to be a short lived industry.

    Sure, it will be around in some form, but a lot of that space has been taken over by mobile app development. Another portion of the market has been taken over by social media (your business doesn't need a website anymore; it needs an Instagram/twitter/etc). And yet another portion has been taken over by products like Wix that allow non-experts to make good enough websites themselves (even without AI).

    Really, thinking of "web dev" as a profession is a category error. You are a graphical designer and programmer that was working in the web industry. There are plenty of other industries that hire your profession.

  • What folders do you make in addition to the default ones ?

    Jump
    • /ram - tmpfs filesystem
    • ~/.local/bin - added to my path
    • ~/.local/software - any user-local program more complicated than a binary gets a directory here. Generally a binary would be symlinked to ~/.local/bin
    • ~/.local/venv - shared python venv to use for one liners and small scripts
    • ~/repo - local filesystem backed package repository for which the host system is configured to install from
    • ~/.local/repo - local filesystem backed package repository for which the host system is not configured to install from (used for mock, VMs, and external systems).
    • /overflow - Used to point to a large secondary hard drive (back when having a small ssd was the economical thing to do. Nowadays, it is just where my large directories go cause I can't be bothered to get used to a more sane setup

  • Ethical consumption, 1860

    Jump

  • But that isn't really the comparison being drawn. That comparison would be someone buying a shirt from a factory in a free northern state; because that shirt was produced by cotton grown by slave labor in the south.

  • Ms Rachel responds to antisemitism allegations: "The Stop Antisemitism Now group should not be able to try to ruin people's lives"

    Jump

  • It does more than that. It tarnishes the believability of all accusations of antisemitism, even those made by reasonable people about actual antisemitism.

    It also proactively fuels antisemitism by conflating Israel with Jews more broadly. Because of rhetoric like this, some subset of people who are outraged at Israel l's actions will now direct that outrage at Jews more broadly.

  • Klingons are so wholesome

  • If you track how kids perform at this, you actually find a bathtub curve. When they are really young and just learning words, they are actually quite good at irregular conjunctions (for the few words they know). Then, as they get older and learn a bunch of other words, they start messing up the irregular ones they used to get right. Then, of course, they eventually learn the exceptions as exceptions.

  • There are two kinds of people.

  • When working in 2 dimensions with gravity, it is common to treat Y as up. E.g, 2d video games, physics problems, computer screens.
