It's common for open source libraries that use split licencing. By assigning copywrite ownership to the project, they are able to licence your contribution however they like. Without a CLA, any licence change,…
A 2hr 16min video is not particularly ADHD friendly Well I'll give it a shot across my runs next week. Thanks for the recommendation
Yeah I was diagnosed with ADHD this year and this read like a very clear summary of my symptoms, how I feel about those symptoms and various strategies I've tried. The point about the "new todo-app effect" is very real,…
Yeah this makes it not viable from a pure sequestration point of view, but building your house from timber is still better on emissions than concrete etc
This is the most prominent olivine sequestration project I've found: https://projectvesta.org Stripe (and others) are currently purchasing negative emissions from a bunch of projects like this to help move them down the…
You are both entirely right. It's hard to judge their writing without seeing their resume and/or cover letter
But they did not buy the macbook with the Apple Card. Apple made a mistake with the credit process and decided to reclaim the credit by applying it as a balance on the card without notification and then sent a strange…
Avoiding contentious terms is not the same thing as avoiding contentious topics. The blog clearly says he's keen to talk about these things, but tries to do so in a way that doesn't drag in a bunch of baggage that makes…
Yeah, my experience is similar to deanCommie's. Annoyingly the definition is correct to the established meaning (in the dictionary), no redefining necessary. But surely just a trial run in the real world would tell you…
It's context dependent, but I do like the difficulty setting analogy. Like the pact of punishment in Hades, except you don't get extra rewards. In one abstract example there'll be a discussion of why x group are so…
There's one term I always avoid in discussion, and that's Privilege. Beyond the dictionary definition, privilege already had widely used emotional connotations that made it an insult to call someone privileged. Which…
I think this is the right way to look at things, after all, these were the orignal "why" arguments in favour of open source. If we can get the same benefits while also protecting open products from megacorps like AWS,…
I'm guessing that if they can get the non-backtracking algorithm to perform at least as fast, then they'll consider switching the default
I've only worked on one US election (Colorado 2014), but they did check people off a database when they voted. So some places already do this. Unfortunately that database went down multiple times during the day, leading…
I've always thought hackers/security folks have better politics (in both directions) because they're used to thinking in terms of systems. I would love if journalists also took the time to think about how the parties…
I doubt it would have picked up this failure. That said, I think dones + AI can reduce the cost of routine maintenance, the savings of which shoud be used for infrequent detailed inspections that would pick up a defect…
I wouldn't be surprised if the staff deliberately sabotaged it. I've worked for a party before and the emails are horrendous
The earwax thing was during a long boring session in parliament, so not exactly Live TV
"emotional labour" is absolutely a real thing, but that isn't it. Emotional labour normally means stuff like remembering family birthdays, planning gifts, organising visits to friends and family, planning social events,…
They've been doing a lot of work in the last decade to fix the acoustics in the main wall with acoustic diffusers, reflectors and changes in stage and seating structures
Anything that requires VB is not friendly. Of course there's a sheets equivalent using javascript, which you can say the same thing about
My understanding is that organic still uses some fertilizers, pesticides and herbicides. Just that they come from a shorter list of approved products EDIT: Okay, permaculture is stricter, so this doesn't apply
