It's one of those bits that wouldn't be nearly as funny if the vocalist wasn't really talented.

Like what does "money laundering" look like on the ground, how would I know if someone around me was trying to do that? Restaurants in high rent areas offering suspiciously cheap food with relatively few customers. They are all

He was a tree-planting vegetarian, a druggy anarchist, and a self-described “dogmatic feminist ... But over time McInnes accelerated his drift to the political fringe. Sounds like he just moved from one fringe to another.

This feels like Sauron and Saruman are shaking hands. I need to de-google my online life.

We'll just have to wait for Yandex to come out with an equivalent product.

I just checked, it can generate white people for me. My prompt was "A medieval noble of England". More accurate looking than anything the BBC can produce now.

It's more a case of they don't bother testing using firefox. It may incidentally work on firefox, as a side effect of being tested in browsers that people still commonly use in the 2020s.

Firefox has been declining in popularity for a decade and a half.

I love it. Any more of these? I love 80s and 90s programming humour. Real programmers don't eat quiche, story of mel, etc.

I'm a pro-wrestling fan, and very few MMA fighers can trashtalk well, though they seem to get rewarded by it. The only thing the UFC should take from WWE is decent audio. Like seriously, 90's WWE had better audio production than t

TBH Jones is a big reason why I stopped watching MMA. That and finding out how truly little the fighters are paid, and a spate of early deaths / suicides... it was just too slimy.

Kleppmann is one of very few people who not only understands technical topics deeply, but is a great speaker & a writer. Very much looking forward to it. As for local first, I see it as a combination of a few things - moving databases a

If it makes you feel better Jon Jones is a fairly reprehensible human being. - hit and run on a pregnant women, though he did return to the scene to get his drugs - his own daughter called the police on him after he was having a domestic in

Have you seen the opioid and crystal meth epidemics up close? They are far more dystopian than Singapore executing the odd drug trafficker.

I wasn't around then, but I have read some usenet stuff, and the theory of peak "useful information density" does check out. But then my thought is - how could this be re-created? We have the technology. And there's defi

That would increase total suffering, as people condemned to be executed will under go a great deal of suffering.

The murder rate of the USA is now almost 3 times higher than that of El Salvadors. New Zealand now has more murder than El Salvador.

by LAC-Tech 3y ago
Alternately, you just execute people for drug trafficking. A total win in terms of net human suffering.

IIRC if you don't do that, it will spam you with "the default branch is master, it may change" every time you make a new repo, so you have to set it explicitly to get rid of the nagging.

Then my description isn't very good because I'm not imagining redux at all.

Shower thought I've had recently: would we not be better off modelling a UI as Actions, rather than states? Each action changes this part of the markup, makes these requests to app state / client DB / remote server. This also
