Florida has transparency laws which allow for every dumb thing ever done by a florida man to be published and become highly visible on a global scale. It gave the state certain reputation due to observation bias.

I'm using vs code for python development and the company has standardized on black with pre-commit hooks. I'm actually happy with the setup. Line length is not important for me, so short lines work too as they work for everyone el

If I only need to read some text or code, the line length does not matter, because the sound from the screen reader is linear by nature. There is something to be said about natural breaks on statements and the like, but we assume that we ar

I'm blind and line length matters to the extend that long lines are harder to edit in the middle.

Bank runs are rare while monthly subscriptions show up in your balance sheet every month. People prefer to take a minor risk instead of constantly losing money. If they don't trust the banks, they would just keep their savings under th

The idea of ai is to gather large amounts of signals and to extract meaning that is non-obvious for humans. If you give it the answers, you don't use the ai to give you solutions, but to confirm your already made decisions. A human won

There is the audiogame forum 1 and some of the more popular rpg games have some soundscape meant for accessibility, but I haven't explored that much. Chess and some of the other tabletop games are made accessible relatively easily, but

"Useful idiots" matches the situation rather well. However, do not forget that some of the Apple users are large corporations and/or educational institutions where they are spending someone else's money so price and util

Why do you need it? To the point though - practice. It is totally illogical so you just must memorize most of it. You might learn some of the history to give you some context, but it is a small help and you will have to brut force it.

If you don't know the vector of attack, maybe it would be good to reset everything and blow the whistle if you are in any organization which could be affected. Also, check moving to a hardware key if you are not already. Good luck!

There are extensions which can do it for you. I don't bother, because I'm using ddg for search. One can whip up something similar for llm-s as well and I'm sure that soon someone will right one for chat gpt. This will avoid t

Or you can introduce noise and bad data in the dataset. The issue is if it is really an issue at the moment.

The point is managing risk. The more nuclear powers there are, the more likely is that something goes wrong. And so far we don't have countries leaving NPT in the dozens so I'd say that it is working rather well. Not perfect, but

In regard to biological weapons, they have the issue of being easy to backfire. I'm not mentioning any lab theories related to events from the recent years as an example of possible developments. There are other factors like not being

You misrepresent the facts. NK does not attempt developing a nuclear weapon until the end of the cold war and it had access to plutonium at the time of the first nuclear deals in the nineties.

Check some of the old cold war designs, they definitely thought in that direction. Space weapons were prohibited partly for the reasons you mentioned and partly due to the political liability of militarizing the space.

The anti-satellite weapons are ground-based and are part of the playing close to the read line together with the spy satellites. The space weapons are when you have a nuclear head deployed in space with a few seconds to minutes ability to r

Iran is the exception that confirms the rule. They were so heavily sanctioned that it became feasible for them to say "screw it, we will do nukes anyway". I won't say that nuclear proliferation is completely stopped, but the
