Just a quick aside here, having not had to deal with Plex support before. Their support email is disabled, and honestly soured me immediately on the handling of this announcement. I realize that this is probably a trend, but emailing someone about an issue I will most likely want to talk about via a no reply address, then responding as follows is sure to run many the wrong way as I under no circumstances would like to join your forum:

As much as we would love to talk to every single one of our users, we are simply unable to provide one-on-one support via email.

Remote work is increasingly popular. I pursue it for reasons of germ control, but lots of people prefer remote work for various reasons.

It isn't a given. I spend my days in a large city. I just have freedom to get up and walk away from people coughing and sniffling, an option I did not have at my corporate job.
Their governments care about privacy.
Yes, it will perform abstractive summarization (re-writing the language in the text) vs. just extractive summarization, which just pulls out high-importance sentences from text.

But we'll offer both just in case.
Why I am taking a stand with James Damore against leftist lynch mobs
I don't undrstand this. You know the seat can recline. I always position my laptop so the screen would be pushed closed instead of being jammed, in case the seat in front of me suddenly reclines. Maybe there isn't a configuration that allows this; then it's a calculated risk to use the computer anyway.
Google (parent company of YouTube) already sees itself as the protector of the public's eyes and ears. They might be contrite now but they behave as a censorshipping organization.
I still use email for just about everything, with some SMS and occasional Twitter mixed in.
That's a pretty interesting though, never thought of it that way. Makes sense that the more things you can talk about, the less shock value they can extract from it.
I mean this week seems to have seen a very public and significant pushback against alt reich/gamergate/neonazi/MAGA idiots. It's been one of the worst weeks to be a white supremacist or racist in the US for quite some time.

So there are limits. Even Ted Cruz will eventually stand up and say: you know what, this is too fucking far. STOP.

They key to moving the Overton window is to do it gradually. Charlottesville was a massive overreach, and it backfired.

exactly.

in 2003 people wanted "phones."

in 2017 people want computers in their pockets, without thinking of them as "computers"

my question:

how long until we abandon the mental modal and service contract model of these being "phones?"

Serious Question: can you actually type using this?
The film Idiocracy is a prediction not satire.
Alt-right attitudes present large statistical differences from control groups
The word neoliberalism is dead. It has so many prejudiced interpretations amongst its opponents, that it ceases to function as a neutral unbiased concept in a rational discussion. Its enemies deliberately conflate it
with financialization, inequality, rent-seeking, corporatism, cartels, oligopolies, corruption and cronyism. It is now used mostly as a pejorative term.

In fact, almost all that baggage is completely antithetical to the original neoliberal ideals. If you add neoconservatism, the military-industrial complex and militarization of law enforcemnt (esp. in the US), you get something that should be called what it is: fascism, not neoliberalism.

What has really swallowed the world is social democracy (voting for deficits), hence an explosion of debt and govt control of monetary conditions:

- Huge bloated governments (look at govt spending as a proportion of GDP, and public sector employment, in all westernized nations).

- High levels of debt in all sectors: personal, corporate and govt.

- Explicit control of short term interest rates and manipulation of longer term bond yields through QE.

- Monetization of govt debt (QE + rollover at maturity + refund of coupon interest to treasuries).

The distortion and corruption is astonishing. With the Fed owning $1.8tn of US real estate (MBS) from QE, there's a good chance the Fed is your landlord! In Europe, companies issue bonds specifically for the ECB to buy at a premium, using printed money (EUR60bn/month). Then companies use the money to buy back their own stock, hence increase their share price, and allow execs to earn handsome profits on stock options - printing money into exec's pockets! The BoJ prints Yen to buy Japanese shares. The SNB prints CHF to buy US stocks and now owns $1.7bn of AAPL! Milton Friedman must be spinning in his grave.

Neoliberalism favors small responsible government, with low debts, allowing markets to set prices, including the interest rate, which is the price of money. The neo- in the name indicates its deviation from the classic liberal laisser faire economics of unfettered free markets, because the natural tendency is to reduce competition (see P.Thiel). Neoliberallism encourages govt intervention to keep a level playing field and protect fair competition in the open market, especially to prevent the distortions of asymmetric information, rent-seeking, cartels, oligopolies and monopolies.

The only minor victory for neoliberalism was the freedom from capital controls, which is now being rapidly reversed with financial restrictions enacted in the name of the fake wars on drugs and terrorism (KYC, AML, FATCA, FBAR...). Next is the war on cash, which will bring a loss of freedom, privacy and ownership of your money. We already have NIRP, bailins, civil asset forfeiture, limits on cash transactions and phasing out of large denomination notes (e.g. EUR 500).
Another clue may be an interview that doesn't hit too hard technically.
Further down there are comments about how any gas/electric powered bike that can go over 20 w/power is technically a moped. So I think I'm mistaken about the 35mph top speed of my friends bikes.
Printing money using universal basic income is only barely better than using debt to do it. Basic income don't boost the economy until it is spent, which would encourage ads for example.
I still use and prefer Email. If I want instant communication, I use sms or a phone call... And I almost never use those. At work, I use slack for instant communication, but again, I try to keep it to a minimum.
Win7 has not had to face a major update since SP1, and has seven years of bugfixes under its belt. Not to mention that it was merely a reworking of Vista, which is even older.

The consumer editions of Win10 are managed like Arch Linux, it is effectively rolling release and its users are perpetual beta testers. Since Nadella's ascension, QA/QC has declined considerably. I believe the KB3201845 update broke DHCP for a swathe of users, as an example.

The worst part of Win10's interface is in the Start menu, it dedicates too much space to Metro files for what used to be links to Computer, Documents, Control Panel etc. Speaking of which, there are two control panels with overlapping features, a confusing experience.

>Anti vaxxers believe at least some of these problems are being caused by the widespread use of vaccines.

Great, but people believe a lot of things, so show me some evidence. Believing some vaccines to be harmful is, at least, a defensible (and scientifically testable) position. But that's not the same as believing vaccination as a whole should be avoided. Vaccines do work, and herd immunity is a thing. Even if we didn't truly understand the long-term ramifications of vaccines, we do already understand what happens in their absence.

Pro-vaxxers aren't being closed minded, we just don't want our children to have to worry about whooping cough and polio.
It is tough to compare them. Facebook videos automatically play so that 3 second level isn't completely real either.

Google Inbox has this feature. There, after sending an email, a small notification appears, allowing you to 'undo' the send for a few seconds. For the small number of times you are too trigger-happy with the Send button, the ability to undo is great.

Muesli – An alternative approach to Soylent
As it is described, if I understand correctly, they are not deciding anything.
I'm not saying that everyone should meditate. I'm only bringing it up because I think it sheds a light on the true nature of pain and why simply removing it with chemicals at all costs is a very dangerous thing to be doing. We need to better understand that nature of pain and understand how to deal with it both physiologically and psychologically rather than taking the naive approach using chemicals, because a mind-body solution will be so much more successful than one that only considers one side of the equation.
Yes, there have been some developments and the project is definitely active. There should be more public information coming out soon.
"Unlike most browser-based email, which is server-based, Superhuman can store and index gigabytes of email in the web browser itself."

Did I miss something, or what technology can store gigabytes in a web browser?! Unless they are compressing email aggressively (possible) and storing in SessionStorage/LocalStorage, decompressing on the fly... then this sounds like marketing fluff, or just written poorly.
Reverse engineering home security system
It's currently also true on Android, because Gecko doesn't yet provide a WebView style embeddable component, so Firefox Focus uses the default Android WebView instead.

Is this a conjecture or a claim? In my experience the Overton Window is wider in the US than most other places, but there is also a greater tendency towards trolling in US society as well. These assertions would be challenging to measure, but might be amenable to proxy representations.
I prefer to stand mostly because it helps some mobility issues I've noticed while doing olympic weightlifting, notably, sitting for long periods really tightens my hip flexors and external shoulder rotation. It's taken me a couple of years, but gradually my overhead squat has become stable and low. But that process wasn't due to me just standing: over these years I've also done lots of exercises to explicitly improve the position. Standing all day vs sitting all day is just something I notice when I get to the gym. After a long day of meetings, I find I need a solid 2-3 more minutes of hip flexor and shoulder work to get things moving.

However, I don't think for a second that standing all day has anywhere near as significant an impact as doing olympic weightlifting 4-ish hours a week. Building up the body's ability to handle high intensity physical activity doesn't take long, but over the long term, you can make major improvements. For me, I've easily more than doubled maximal intensities I can perform: I recall a time starting out that a 225 lb deadlift was difficult. I regularly pull 400-450 pounds now, and can do it for multiple reps in a single session without significant soreness the day after. And notably, I started at the age of 36, and my bodyweight hasn't changed that much, though I'm less pudgy and a little more muscular. I'm hardly what someone would spot as a "beast" or associate with being a bodybuilder. (Lifting for high intensity involves a lot of central nervous system training, often overlooked until you're doing it.)

In the end, I just question these recommendations to "stand vs sit", because neither of these things are going to really challenge your body. My sense is that unless you significantly challenge the combination of strength, flexibility, and aerobic capacity with some regularity, what you do in low-intensity situations will only change you in a minor way. Subsequently, my guess is that if you actually measured athletic performance (standing vertical jump, V02 max, etc) of someone who sat all day at work vs stood up all day at work, there probably wouldn't be much of a change. And as a corollary, I'd expect if you found a way for people to actually improve their athletic performance significantly, that would likely have a significant effect on their quality of life as they age.

Unfortunately, most athletic studies are performed at colleges on a fixed demo, e.g., college athletes. I'm just not aware of anyone looking at long term effects of athletic performance for the average joe in the workforce. It would be an expensive proposition, too, so I'm not sure it'll be forthcoming.
In reality, I think the only way to do this is just not to let the email leave the bounds of their own servers for x seconds, and then only if the user hasn't canceled in the meantime. Maybe it's possible to do if you host the email for both sender and receiver, but even then, it seems unlikely given the implications of being able to see an email literally disappear from your inbox.
There are other reasons to do so (unethical but who is to say it's not part of the thinking ...). Foreign assets are also significantly harder to apply many kinds of financial regulations to from other countries. If this fund is a Ponzi scheme for example, then the foreign transaction boundaries can prevent (or severely complicate) federal jurisdictions from clawing back profits (for the early investors who might have net profit). Normally - any investor with profitable returns from a Ponzi scheme will have their gains clawed back to pay restitution for the losses of investors who got scammed.

Sorry, the antecedent of "it" was "colorado" there, not colorado springs.
Sure, the example doesn’t monkey patch there though. My issues happened around complex multi part Chords and removing Gevent fixed stuff, but then eventually I moved away from celery too and just used Pikka and Rabbitmq directly. This gave me more control and allowed me to see what was happening more easily; celery sometimes seemed to hide exceptions from me. Glad you haven’t had issues.
If you fear that racism will spread to all conservatives than you really need to engage with them in respectful dialogue to test your hypothesis.

For example, you might be surprised to learn that the Democratic party was the party of slavery in the South and that the Nazi party used the Jim Crow laws as inspiration for their racist segregation and treatment of Jews. As shocking as this statement sounds, the Nazi party shares its ideological roots with the Democratic party. If you don't believe me please fact check it.

Lastly, I'd recommend reading Thomas Sowell and Dinesh D’Souza for a better understanding of what is conservatism.

This is very obvious situation. But what if sum is not twice larger? Or if you are not confident in your importance score? This is where game becomes harder.
Gmail has this feature, too. It basically holds the message for up to a minute after you press send. During that time you can click the undo button and edit the message. After the time, the message is sent and you can't undo it.
What I meant is that the archive_command is run only when a WAL segment is completed or when archive_timeout is reached. In the meantime, nothing is backed up. On a low traffic database, this can be a problem. I'm wondering if there is a way to continuously stream the WAL to an object storage like S3, without waiting to have a complete segment.
> Outside the workplace

Well good news, workplaces are still a thing and where a lot of economic activity happens.

Email provides ubiquitous, traceable, asynchronous, storable messaging. Until something can entirely supplant it I don't see it disappearing anytime soon.
So it's a local email client. Basically, what we already have but written in a less efficient language...
Exchange offers this functionality - retract an email sent to internal senders. It sometimes fails with "The sender would like to retract this message" shown above the email.
Saenai Heroine No Sodatekata – Group Cosplay Pool -
Maybe it's the Unix fan in me talking, but I don't get the point of "undo send". Why are you hitting "send" if you have doubts about sending, instead of putting it into the Drafts folder and taking a 10 minute break? If you're afraid of sending an email with a typo, why not get into the habit of proofreading to your satisfaction before sending the email?

"Undo send" seems to me to be inherently inferior to having some self-discipline and patience. Whatever last second doubts you've had are now simply pushed forward. Except now you've set a timer, which creates additional chance for failure -- either on the back end or on the user side, e.g. the timer expiring just as you try to panic cancel -- that there isn't when you just don't hit send in the first place.

I get that products have to be designed for human comfort over pure technical effectiveness, but this is design that appeases -- at a very surface level -- one of our least helpful indiscretions.
A bunch of people are going to reply to this saying "I still use email...etc.", they are in the very small minority I'd wager.
Neoliberalism is colonialism via money rather than bullets. After the fall of european colonialism in the mid 20th century, neoliberalism replaced it as as a tool for the elite/banks to extract wealth/resources/labor from the rest.

Just like colonialism or slavery, neoliberalism wasn't meant to benefit ordinary people. Just the elite.
So how long is each segment? 10 seconds? That's not news.
From another perspective you could say they're lowering the bar overall, and you're saying the only way to deal with them is that you de-sensitize yourself to them. Nietzsche springs to mind, about gazing into abysses and battling monsters.

The understanding of opioid use has clinically changed drastically in the last 40 years, similar to SSRIs in the last 70 years.

Not that I do not agree with your premise, but the issue seems to be much more institutional and related to human, research, and implementation error than a bunch of individual bad actors.

I personally don't consider buying a battery case because an external portable powerbank seems easier to use.

So, the market has indeed spoken: you can buy these powerbanks on every corner, which indicates a demand for increased battery capacity.

Perhaps not in the form of a battery case, which only works with one device, though.
Job switching is the most effective way to pressure the employer to raise and keep the high salary.

If you pay well, good engineers swarm to apply the job.

Job switching is the best opportunity to negotiate your salary for both current and next employers.

"If current employer don't pay more, I'll leave."

"If the next would-be employer don't pay more, I'll stick with the current job."

Also, it pressures existing employers to raise and keep the high salary because if they don't, they'll lose the good engineers to the competitors. So the fact there are many job switching engineers benefits those who don't switch job that often.
