Your thesis is that without credit, insurance or health data collection those entities will not be able to function.

The world is a lot larger than just the United States and in other places banks, insurance companies and healthcare providers function just fine even if they do not have the data gathering capabilities that are considered 'normal' in the United States.

So there's what I think of 'that', data collection is not a pre-requisite for any of this.

The point of journeyman in connection to a trade is as a point on a scale of relative skill and has no meaning in the place of determing the accidental characteristics of the wielder of the title EXCEPT relative competency in the trade.

"Man" has been a catch all for human practitioner when who the practitioner is isn't essential to the context.

The title of journeyman elevates whomever bears it in the eyes of a trade. It grants equivalence no matter whom it is applied to. If you wish to call yourself a journeywoman, do so. Don't be surprised when the rest of the trade still refers to you as a journeyman. Tools don't care who wields them. And finished works' quality depends only on skill. Not gender.

Add on the social credit system and oppression of dissenters, great firewall, etc, and I sure would expect every single Huawei device to have some kind of surveillance path baked in.

All I know is that this is new, untested input into a 4-billion-year-old tangle of spaghetti code.

If you are confident being the guinea pig, since "human health effects of phthalates are not yet fully known but are being studied," be my guest.

* Di(2-ethylhexyl) phthalate is listed as "reasonably anticipated to be a human carcinogen"

* Current levels of seven phthalates posed "minimal" concern for causing reproductive effects.

* High levels of one phthalate, di-n-butyl phthalate, may adversely affect human reproduction or development.

I have a plastic bristle brush, but of course it can't be used when the grill is hot. It works ok for getting off large bits of char, but I think I will explore other alternatives this season.
Uber has no idea if you are poor or not. Even if you want more price segmentation (maybe okay) you certainly can't ask each passenger their income. And Uber isn't indicating if a price is cheap or not, creating a very large disadvantage to the poor as they are unable to accurately judge the expected value of the service before planning their method of transportation somewhere.
how do you "outsource" passion ?

I've been using balls of crumpled up aluminum foil held with tongs. My father grills more often than I do and I bought him a dedicated tool for grill cleaning from a craft fair; it's a brass disk on a stick, with various grate profiles cut out of the disk. It works well, but is a little slower than some other tools. Looks like the creator has a web store now[1].

Once, I got a bristle in a waffle cone from an ice cream parlor. Fortunately, I noticed it in my mouth before I swallowed. The parlor used a steel brush to scrub the griddles clean. Their policy is to bake a waffle cone after cleaning and immediately throw it away to catch stray bristles. One employee didn't follow the policy.

I frequently hit the problem with variables that are <optimized out> when debugging C code using gdb, and it's especially infuriating when I can look at the disassembly and see that the variable is right there in the register file.

Well, I can attest to the security at least.

I almost missed flights from and to Israel twice because of their security. In one case, I took the wrong train and arrived at the airport under an hour from my flight, so they did extra screening and I barely made it. In the other, as I was boarding my flight, they refused to let me on (saying I should have known to come to security early - I was three hours early) until I went through two rounds of brief interrogation and they brought my carry on bag through security again, and broke the main zipper, and refused to pay for it. In another instance, my flight was delayed on the tarmac until several passengers (who had been sitting quietly) were forceably removed.
Oh wow, that takes me back. The section for NO$GMB even says:

The Windows version is for Windows 95/98/NT/2000, it requires a rather fast computer (at least 66MHz suggested), it is including a typical windows user interface (new in this version), and it is probably easier to install, and more compatible to newer windows versions.

Nothing to stop you adding the Shift+F9 shortcut to the gui.

Gui's are often preferred for the speed at which new hires can use them. In environments with high turnover this is important. You can have the best of both worlds with a GUI that has good shortcuts and clever cursor placement. I agree though that most gui implementations have not put enough effort into this.

Why do you clean a grill?

Let the carbon build up. It's seasoning and food doesn't stick to it.

Just preheat the grill to burn off any remains from the prior use. If there's really heavy buildup, use a straight edge scraper like a paint scraper or heavy spatula.

Cleaning a grill down to shiny bare metal is a sure way to have all your food stick to it every time.
Thanks for clarifying. That makes a ton of sense.
This => "But at that point you're basically writing your own stuff, just using a framework."

is what makes Emacs so comfortable for me. In fact, that was a moment of revelation when I found that Emacs is not an editor as they said, but a platform to build your editor/IDE/environment. Probably, it is because my brain is trained to think in a programming way, it feels much more natural to tune everything by coding, then by knobs, and buttons. And, yes, it provides more extensibility. I mean, for real. That's why I, as many before me, started to do a lot of things unrelated to programming in Emacs - because I can make it to assist me better, in ways unachievable with other software, in spite of the fact that the latter could be specially developed for a purpose.

I don't proclaim Emacs is the panacea for everything, it has it's ugly sides too. I just want to say if you like to rule you working environment, not just learn how to live with it - Emacs can offer you something.
I'd say products that are only safe if used properly are unsafe products.

I've used balled up aluminum foil, wet newspaper, and wooden scrapers. All of them work but I like the wooden scrapers best because they're easier to apply pressure with. You can use any plank of wood really. Do it while the grill is hot and you'll wear grooves into the wood.

Cooperative is less simple to reason about, as the proposal explains. Preemption fully delivers what the developer already expects of goroutines.

No, they don't. They have indicators and clues about your income based on your rides and credit spending at uber, but they do not know if you are poor. All those indicators could and often are very wrong if that is what they draw assumptions from.

Their indicators can be wildly off because they do not know the person themselves and they can only make guesses.

It really is not that much different. Both are buying and reselling large quantities of standardized food products, the production and lifecycle of which are part of the problem.

The restaurant supply company is selling to dozens and hundreds of restaurants, so it is kind of like a fast food chain, just not under the same logo.

The restaurant needs twenty five-pound bags of prepared chicken every day. The supplier sources this chicken meat, spices, seasonings, and synthetic chemicals from a number of distributors, who source the components from a number of other suppliers, who eventually source them from the farms. The farms are producing for volume, so quality is not really in the picture, as long as it meets the inspection standards and government regulations.

It is not only the finished product, but also the sub-components, that spend days, months, sometimes years in the supply chain, being processed, preserved, and homogenized, and processed again.
I had to use Uber and Lyft extensively after a car accident left my car being repaired for months.

There was no change in my income but I became a frequent rider.

My trips started getting more expensive, Lyft stopped telling me “This is a good deal” on prices before trips, and all kinds of shadiness.

It feels like you’re being mistreated when you’re punished for using a service more than others.

I’d much prefer they give out a fixed amount free credits for new accounts, make surge pricing crystal clear, and then keep prices at a base rate.

Instead of trying to play 3 card monte with the real price of a ride.

Couldn't a higher upfront price also partly be because Uber tries to predict the travel time and need to add some error margin due to uncertainty? That would probably explain only a small part of it and certainly not why different people seem to get different deals.
Please don't call it "ride sharing" or "ride hailing", that's what they want to be called despite being very clearly a taxi service.
That's not how I read OP's comment. I interpreted it as people should not be aggregating data to make decisions about you without your informed consent.

They should not be using my social media profile, purchasing history, location data, conversations, pictures, associations etc which I agree with.

> The operative word is probably: the most recent referendums were designed to provoke the statehood option

The most recent referendum was held only because the federal government preferred another referendum to honoring the statehood win in the prior referendum, which had 78.19% turnout, and a two-question format where a clear majority chose not to continue territorial status and a clear majority chose statehood as the new status.

> I suspect that Puerto Rico will eventually become a state, but it's politically difficult for that to happen without a clear mandate

There was a clear mandate after the 2012 status referendum. It is difficult when a majority of Congress doesn't want it to happen for reasons for mostly partisan political reasons, and will seize on any excuse to ignore thr clear desire to end the colonial relation.

As far as I know Tiangong-1 was never planned to orbit for long. As its the first chinese orbital station, its mission was to test deployment and orbital docking capabilities. And that was accomplished. There was a malfunction, in the sense that the station did lose its communication and control capabilities, but it was clear that the station would deorbit sooner or later. Stations on low earth orbit still need fuel to maintain altitude, because earths gravity and friction in the high atmosphere tend to pull it earthwards slowly. Cut the fuel supply and the station deorbits inevitably. Same thing happened with Skylab and Mir btw. -- with the exception that the deorbiting procedure was a planned and controlled event.
"I am afraid that introducing non-deterministic preemptive stops will just make Go concurrency a mess similar to the mutex/conditionals mess they've been trying to avoid."

They already took a few steps inside of Go to try to ensure that concurrency is quite non-deterministic. Even very simple, naive code like

func main() {
for i := 0; i < 2; i++ {
go func(j int) {
fmt.Println("First", j)
fmt.Println("Second", j)
}(i)
}
time.Sleep(100*time.Millisecond)
}

will very frequently produce different results; I just ran that four times and got four different results. This is good, because it tends to bring bugs to the forefront more quickly, rather than having a almost-but-not-quite-deterministic model as has been the case in many other environments.

(Yes, I know sleep is not production-quality here, just trying to keep it simpler than several more lines for a proper waitgroup usage.)

I doubt there's a lot of code written at the Go level that would explode if you suddenly ran it with a pre-emptive runtime that isn't already exploding. As the proposal discusses, there's a lot of issues down at the runtime level, but at the layer of abstraction presented by the language itself I wouldn't expect a lot of problems. Non-zero, and even then, it would still be things that are technically already bugs. And Go code is already running concurrently all the time in the real world. I'm not even sure how I'd construct an example that runs correctly in the current runtime but fails with true pre-emption.

Yes, similar to voting for political positions, being a marginal (or "swing") consumer draws the most benefits.

Over time, today's swing consumer becomes tomorrow's safe user, so it is really complacency that is penalized. That makes some sense, but is hardly the utopia where we get to spend less mindshare on fundamental services.
