I don’t think this administration is either, nor did I ever say that it is. I asked why these institutions or organizations have such selective outrage over issues.
If the concentration of power in the presidency, as shown by an erosion of the Take Care Clause, is such a concern, where was the concern about the malfeasance of the last administration?
> I asked why these institutions or organizations have such selective outrage over issues.
Because people have stuff they care about more and stuff they care about less.
> as shown by an erosion of the Take Care Clause
Honestly the only two times I have heard anyone refer to the Take Care clause is the current president during some twitter rant many years ago and yourself right now. There are a few good explanations for this but the most likely one, in my mind, is because the primary function of the executive is to enforce laws in a world with limited. And so no one needs to invoke the Take Care clause unless they're really mad about a single issue.

Pretty pervasive, if you hadn't noticed we voted in the guy who turned a mob loose on the counting of votes.
Wasn’t it also a free upgrade when it launched? They didn’t bump the price of their search plans when they added Assistant.
I wish they’d separated them from the start because I knew immediately that my subscription (where I don’t use Assistant) was going to subsidise subscriptions that do. Now I don’t know what the right thing for them to do is, given they’ve been marketing Assistant as a feature.
> Orion isn’t a recoloured Chromium or another Firefox fork, but a native Linux app built in GTK4/libadwaita and WebKitGTK, with platform-level integration.
Isn't it just a recoloured Safari (through WebKit)? Why is Chromium/Firefox bad but WebKit OK for this argument?
A simple proxy experiment I’ve seen are private torrent trackers.
The ones that have a monthly/weekly/daily free download allowance don’t suddenly deflate the value of “uploaded bytes” across the whole network.
The allowance is enough for someone to bootstrap themselves onto the network by getting some torrents to seed.
UBI should largely be the same? It’s not to replace the incentive of high income, it’s enough to get the basics to live. Trading your time/effort/capital for more income is still incentivised the same way it is now. All the other market effects are still in play.
I don’t understand how Hotz thinks this will suddenly lead to UBI dollars being worthless.
> And it can still send outbound to a v4x address that it knows about.
No, it cannot, if there is a router on the way that is unaware of v4x, it will interrupt the signal.
Say your router is 1.2.3.4.0.0 in IPv4x (and 1.2.3.4 in IPv4). You are 1.2.3.4.0.1 . Someone sends you a message from outside. Your router only sees the previx of the address (1.2.3.4), and since it thinks it has 1.2.3.4, it reads the message and doesn't forward it further.
> but your local router has old software and treats all packages to x.x.x.x.* as directed to it.
So how do you have an IPv4x address? And then how did you let someone else on the internet know about the IPv4x address?
I know plenty well how IP routing works otherwise I wouldn't be in this conversation. Is there something specific in the RFC you think I’m not understanding?
> Changes land in branches I haven't read. A few weeks ago I realized I had no reliable way to know if any of it was correct: whether it actually does what I said it should do.
I care about this. I don't want to push slop, and I had no real answer.
That’s really putting the cart before the horse. How do you get to “merging 50 PRs a week” before thinking “wait, does this do the right thing?”
Yeah just wanted to see what the bottlenecks would be as I started pushing the limits. Eventually made this into a verification skill(github.com/opslane/verify)
> generally because the operators lower the yellow light time to increase fees
I'm skeptical of this claim because the red light camera operators are usually contracted by municipalities. They don't have any direct control over the light cycles.
(Yes, obviously they can be in cahoots with the municipality, but I would be surprised if that was common and not the exception)
That I couldn’t say. It at least provides a model. Most city or county governments have some influence over their traffic engineering or streets staff as far as high level planning concerns.
> Fine, maybe country first. The purists in the comments are technically correct — postal codes aren't globally unique. You could do country first (pre-filled via IP), then postal code, then let the magic happen. The point was never "skip the country field." The point is: stop making me type things you already know.
It’s addressed in the article (at the end, admittedly).
He’s not claiming the rewrite is a clean room implementation. In fact he’s explicitly saying it is not:
> However, the purpose of clean-room methodology is to ensure the resulting code is not a derivative work of the original. It is a means to an end, not the end itself. In this case, I can demonstrate that the end result is the same — the new code is structurally independent of the old code — through direct measurement rather than process guarantees alone.
What civil liberties are being eroded there?
(I do agree that poor handling of the pandemic normalised the removal of civil liberties)
