Too much legislating from the bench is a symptom of too little legislating in the legislature...

Good article, appreciated the charts, though the commentary on them seemed a bit selective. I was disappointed though that the case wasn't made for the actual cause of the recent unamendability (since 1971, as they say). Why did opposi

I also hated that. But I read the article anyway and thought it was informative. Probably I should just read the book it was reviewing, though.

These are some things that have helped me: Focusing on myself and what I can control. Focusing on improving my physical wellness, in whatever ways I can---we are more than our minds. Focusing on being a good friend to myself---not beating m

That would be an awesome HOWTO I've been using OpenWRT (previously DD-WRT) on my routers for years now. Mostly I just enjoy not having nonsense on my router! I think how I got started with it was by finding my device in their devices t

Feels anticompetitive, and maybe even bad for Adobe as they prioritize acquisition over organic development.

The "initial frame -> video" problem seems way harder than generating video from a text input. Once a good dataset for that problem is assembled, it seems like Stable Diffusion would naturally accept an additional "time&qu

I think they did envisage it---thus the urgency at developing their own content. Hard to compete right away with a century of Disney content etc. But, give it a few decades, and things might look better in hindsight.

You may be right that "unconditional surrender" and occupation are prerequisites for the sort of transformation that Germany and Japan underwent. But the collapse of empire as experienced by Russia vis-a-vis the Soviet Union and W

Proof of Person is the problem we most need to solve. A means to cryptographically assert in a privacy-preserving way "a human being generated this"; or less privacy-preserving, "human being X generated this". To do eith

Recently switched from the Gmail web UI to Thunderbird (backed by Gmail IMAP). I don't think I could ever go back---for the first time in many years my inbox is getting the attention it deserves. I've cleaned up the junk mail, add

Interesting. I had in mind a symbolic algebra solver. More like Maxima's `solve` and similar. But maybe a numeric solver could serve a similar purpose? Probably not, since the existence of a numerical solution does not imply that the e

Perhaps there are some who will never learn to love themselves but in general I think it can be learned. I don't think there actually is a hard and fast rule that people struggling to love themselves shouldn't seek relationships.

I find it troubling that it essentially imitates human Facebook users. The data we've given is being resurrected to talk back to us. Doesn't feel right.

My disgust reaction is provoked by enough transhumanist ideas that it feels more dystopian than utopian to me. I guess I'm too... human... to trans-human too hard.

Top-level cryptographic identifiers that create an identity separate and distinct from a network location are basically de rigueur for network protocols these days. Almost as if it's a missing layer between IP and TCP? Interesting to s

So even using uniffi you are getting weird bugs on iOS? I've long been interested in sharing Rust code between iOS and Android but found the integration to be pretty daunting. Could it be compiled into a React Native app, I wonder?

Why not produce an aggregate across all locations? I appreciate the value of getting up-close with the data to see quality issues, put things in context, etc. But the lack of an overall analysis leaves the most relevant question unasked, le
