A solution that hits the happy middle for me is to ban, or at least restrict, advertising of sports betting. The way they've devoured sports coverage is what I find the most annoying.

I heard the question was difficult before solving it, and then I was surprised when I didn't hit any speed bumps. The overlapping case didn't even occur to me. It turns out I stumbled upon a simple solution: use two regexes. One t

Overturning Chevron will simply transfer that power to even more unfireable, unelected judges.

The transparency laws aren't the cause of the discontent. The cause is the fact that current employees are underpaid compared to new recruits. Businesses are just upset that they can't shaft their workers.

My guess is that some other law or tort would be a better fit, but I'll note that the "actual malice" and "negligence" are different standards with the latter being a lower bar. The former only applies to public fig

I'm all for encrypted messaging, but this article seems to be almost willfully misreading the DoJ's intentions. They won't specify the case even though it's on the public record; I believe I have found it here[0]. The go

Caro tragically had to cut a chapter about Moses's fight with Jane Jacobs from the book. His initial manuscript was a million(!) words. He managed to cut it down to a trim 700,000. For comparison, the longest Song of Ice and Fire novel

For my part, my Garmin estimates my lactate threshold heart rate. Whatever its accuracy, I find it's as good a number as any to set zones around. Otherwise, I have a good estimate of my max heart rate from a couple of times I've h

I'm thinking of a Jadzia Dax in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. Jadzia is among the lucky few among her race, the Trill, implanted with a "symbiote" carrying the memories of all of its previous hosts. Carrying a symbiote is an un

I'm reminded of this blog post[0] from 2017 about bad tone mapping in video games. A game can put all the work it wants into realistic puddle reflections, but it'll still scream "video game" to your eyes if the color gra

I don't want to overstate my experience--I've used neither professionally. But I think it's true that the repl is better with Clojure than with Clojurescript. Cider with shadow-cljs is very nice but not quite as well-supporte

For me, the killer feature of Clojure is "REPL driven development". The ability to get rapid feedback as you build things up is incredible. I'll make a comment form and evaluate expressions within it to try things out as I go

In 2018, I got on the local news in Seattle for wearing an N95 on a bad smoke day. Probably wouldn't be so newsworthy today.

Funnily enough, I have the inverse of this dream. Exam-taking was never very stressful for me, so I never had the classic dream. But when I was a graduate student and started teaching my own classes, things changed. I, an inveterate procras

I saw that Pizza Hut commercial earlier today and I can't stop thinking about it. It has so much going on. It's the victory of capitalism over Soviet communism, the rise of neoliberalism to global hegemony, and the "End of Hi

The other part of the myth people forget is that the metaphorical fire-yellers were socialists distributing anti-draft pamphlets. It's hardly a good thing to cite today on freedom of speech.

Think of side-effects on the system user level instead of the hardware level. A functional package manager doesn't rely on, for example, globally installed libraries. It also installs packages in such a way as to not affect the operati

The Wirecutter is a highly flawed review site, but at least it's a real one. There are vanishingly few left for general consumer products. There's WC, Consumer Reports, and what else? They've seem to have all been killed off.
