He doesn't despise Israel though, and would make plenty of money of lobbyists.

That's wild. I've only been there 5.5 yrs and I've noticed dramatic shifts in the culture as it's become popular and profit focused

Basically implementing windows in the Linux kernel? Something about this is really funny

Can you recover energy on the way back down?

Sure, the idea is it makes little sense to say and instructions set is itself and more efficient or faster. It is only the implementation that matters. It's equivalent to saying macos is faster than windows cause of how it looks. It's the implementation that matters.

On top of that, the specific argument they make "smaller, more optimized instructions" is doubly nonsense because all modern high-end cpus, whether x86 or arm, break instructions down into smaller subparts and run those.

When apple's M1 came out, a lot of tech media outlets struggled to come up with a explainable reason for why it was so good beyond "appel gud engineering" and one of the main things a lot of them coalesced around was ARM somehow just being a better, faster isa, meaning a lot of people who know little about chips go around saying it and it's pretty irritating. I'm no chip expert either, but I do know Qualcomm/apple aren't making more efficient chips because of the ARM isa.

There is always going to be a difference between what you find acceptable for yourself and what others do. Societal and others' expectations can never perfectly confirm to individual desires.

I have no idea why it's out there, but I suppose abusing it a bit may help toughen it up enough to ensure you can still have children when an accident happens.

Title is editorialized because the original is, frankly, clickbait garbage

I went to some palestine protests a while back, and was talking to my brother about the organizing, when revealed something I found pretty shocking, we (the protesters) had acquired a permit to hold the protest. Apparently this is standard policy across the US.

More recently, my University is also having protests, and in their policy, they also require explicit approval for what they call "expressive activity". I'm pretty sure not having a permit has been used as an excuse to arrest students in some other campuses.

My question is as the title, doesn't this fundamentally contradict the US's ideals of free speech? What kind of right needs an extra permit to exercise it?

When I was talking to my brother, he also expressed a couple more points:

  1. The city will pretty much grant all permits, so it's more of a polite agreement in most cases
  2. If we can get a permit (which we did) why shouldn't we?

I'm assuming this is because of legal reasons, they pretty much have to grant all permits.

Except I think this makes it all worse. If the government grants almost all permits, then the few rare times it doesn't:

  1. The protest is instantly de-legitimized due to not having a permit
  2. There's little legal precedent for the protesters to challenge this

And then of course there's the usual slippery slope argument. You're giving the government a tool they could expand later to oppress you further. Maybe they start with the groups most people don't like and go up from there.

Technically it's not new, but practically speaking it's had 2 posts ever, with the last being 8 months ago.

You may also know it as "creative coding" or the like, but it's not limited to coding.

Why are so many people ok with a world where you have no say in what your employer does, and they can do whatever they want to suit their bottom line?

Though I wonder how much of this is actually corpophilia and how much is people hiding behind it because they don't want to say "I'm glad these people I disagree with got fired".

Here are some threads to show what I'm talking about:

r/conservative (though this one feels like cheating)
