I enjoy things around information theory (and data compression), complexity theory (and cryptography), read hard scifi, currently work on weird ML (we'll see how it goes), am somewhat literal minded and have approximate knowledge of random things. I like when statements have truth values, and when things can be described simply (which is not exactly the same as shortly) and yet have interesting properties.
I live in the largest city of Switzerland (and yet have cow and sheep pastures and a swimmable lake within a few hundred meters of my place :)). I speak Polish, English, German, and can understand simple Swiss German and French.
If in doubt, please err on the side of being direct with me. I very much appreciate when people tell me that I'm being inaccurate. I think that satisfying people's curiosity is the most important thing I could be doing (and usually enjoy doing it). I am normally terse in my writing and would appreciate requests to verbosify.
I appreciate it if my grammar or style is corrected (in any of the languages I use here).

@piotrsikora No wiem, że nie musi, ale jeśli ją tam trzymamy barierą potencjału to wysoka temperatura często pozwala ją pokonać. Żeby tak nie było ta bariera musi być bardzo duża lub to wszystko musi działać w sposób którego sobie nie wyobrażam, więc jestem ciekaw przypadków gdy tak nie jest.
Czy wiesz jak one się zachowują po podpaleniu? (Heureza, którą stosuję, to zakładanie, że baterie uwolnią co najmniej swoją pojemność w przypadku pożaru w ciągu czegoś typu nie więcej niż minuta. Ciekaw jestem czy te baterie ją dezaktualizują.)
> Na plus jest to że ogniwa które powoli wchodzą do masowej produkcji już wyeliminowały ten problem…
O, masz może jakieś hasła pod którym mógłbym czegoś więcej o tym szukać?

suspicious. never trust a pointer with only 4x-7x values.
cause that's not a pointer. That's a string saying "Font"
@rysiek Fair (though this brings to mind various body part replacements, incl. artificial crowns).
Somewhat less in jest, but still nitpickily: there are different kinds of fixing, that bottom up in replacement at different levels (compare: replace an ICE car, replace the engine, replace the cylinder block, regrind valve seats[1]), so being able to fix something is not a binary proposition. In some cases the object itself is simple enough that actually fixing it in _any_ way is very hard (e.g. Phillips screwdrivers).
I get the intent (I think), and I agree with the "we should move in that direction" interpretation, but I don't see how to place a "good enough" bar in a consistent way across different kinds of objects.
[1] I'm assuming without looking it up that valve seats are part of the block, as opposed to being inserted into it.
@rysiek So I don't own myself? :P
@evan Do you mean implementation of the client in AP client-server, or implementation of the server in AP client-server?
@delroth This seems to be the same type of card terminal that Boulderhalle Adliswil uses
Trust is very contextual. For example, from opinions of random folks I know, I would have less trust in authorities (or institutions in general) in my area in the context of dealing with _very_ atypical situations compared with situations that they've likely thought about ahead of time.
Why would the first diagnosis stick? I would expect the setup to be roughly along the lines "if you think it's wrong, you can appeal, but then a larger number of doctors get to examine you and their majority opinion is adopted". In such a setup, ignoring issues of cost, you'd be asking for a consensus of a random(?) subset of local psychologists. Are you pointing at the cost issues or something else?
@whitequark Same snack or a different but equally good snack?
@freemo @thatguyoverthere @admitsWrongIfProven
Do you think something similar still applies if there's a required and the evaluator explicitly has no access to the candidate's medical history? (Or would that be infeasible enough to be useless?)
@thatguyoverthere @admitsWrongIfProven @freemo
Having a psych eval as a prerequisite for a driving license doesn't sound totally weird. As an example, Zürich requires psych eval of drivers who have done something particularly reckless while driving if they want to keep being allowed to drive. I don't think it's required ahead of time for any license, but heavy vehicle/bus/... license requires a medical exam which I can't find the exact description of.
@delroth Takeout breakfast today at 11:41
@rysiek Aaaaah; I forgot about that one completely somehow ^^*
@rysiek Ah, and you're saying that the Twitter's one is worse than lack of one.
If you squint it always had: domain name "ownership" has some sort of due process (even if sometimes broken) with an aim of preventing fraud.
@rysiek I also wonder how much the existence of harm depends here on the way society is structured.
For example, I can't imagine a society where gaslighting is not harmful to humans (and maybe even to ~any entity that's curious). Any specific kind of slander is very society-specific (it needs to actually harm one's reputation to _be_ slander). Various ostracism-adjacent actions are harmful in some societies, but nearly neutral in others.
Curiously, I find it easier to find examples of things that are not harmful in the society I live in but are harmful in some society I just read about than v.v.
