I use a small amount of dressing, but I also want it on the whole salad. So I spent time mixing it. Shaking would be ideal, but I don't have a container, just a bowl, so mixing has to do. It takes a minute, but it's not hard.

As an aside, I use way less dressing than I did as a kid, and less than most people I see. Now, veggies drowning in dressing grosses me out. I just want a little bit of the flavor on the veggies.
But we have that problem as a capitalist society with or without “price gouging”. And we have a solution for that problem too – charities and the government giveaway or subsidize essentials for people who can’t afford them.

If we allow the price of water to rise when supply is constrained, people who can afford the higher prices will use water more conservatively and board less, and people will still give it away to those who can’t afford to buy it. But people won’t have to wait in line all day to get their ration of water, and there will be incentives to create temporary channels to improve the supply of water even if those channels couldn’t be supported by the normal price of water.

But that wouldn't get the clicks that propublica wants. Add facebook to the title and you get X more clicks.

Also, most jobs aren't even advertised. Especially the good jobs, like those at propublica. Seems like a none story to me but the problem is that the news has to make news to make money. Yes, even nonprofits have to make money.

Not sure why you would expect any sort of physical media. These types of consoles are purely intended as emulation-based impulse buys.

They're meant to go from box to playing on a modern TV with extremely minimal setup, not provide a way to play original games you might already have. Completely different audience.

I'm sure the controllers are to keep the cost down, but not having analog sticks (and seemingly no way to plug in original DualShocks) is going to make this a no-go for a lot of people.

I'm sure the success of this will hinge entirely on exactly which games they can put on it.
So sad to see big projects fall to this kind of political activism.

Sorry I did not word that properly, I did not meant to sound aggressive, what I meant to say was that the high performance characteristic is nice to have even if there is little use for it. It is a breath of fresh air in the modern trend of building everything on electron. Having the option for a x-platform terminal emulator with a modern code base is an added bonus! One thing that I forgot to mention was that I particularly love Joe's approach to its development, (similar to suck less approach) changes and features are added only if they do not negatively impact performance (in a significant way) and if you do not want to enable them they can be disabled during build, completely removing them form the compiled program.

Also vim performance is really great inside VMs in Alacritty on my 6th gen core i5 laptop :)
GitLab Raising Capital at Valuation of at Least $1B
If you make 3 subsequent measurements of different but related variables (like a vector component wrt to 3 different axes) the 3rd's probability distribution will depend on the value you observed in the 2nd observation in a way that cannot be replicated without the 2nd.

Meaning it's not just matter of poor precision. See the Stern-gorlach experiment.
I second that. However, there are situations where I need a mobile computing device. For e.g., as a manager, I need to walk away from my desk to attend meetings, attend calls from a room etc. I've been using a OSX/MacOS mobile device for many years now, but now I am looking for alternatives that do not burn a hole in my pocket.
I bought a ThinkPad T480 at the beginning of this year and I really like the quality. The only comparison I have is my old Toshiba Satellite, compared to which the ThinkPad is miles ahead when it comes to build quality. It has two batteries and on a single charge it can work for 8-10 hours.

One thing I dislike about it is when I carry it in my backpack the keyboard keys seem to press on the screen, which would cause it to wear. To protect against it I'm keeping a microfibre cloth sandwiched in there when I carry it around.

It doesn't seem like they're arguing against those people's jobs existing. Anybody with some sense can see value in those positions. I think they're highlighting the absurd ratio of non-engineering staff for a software product. Having used it, I am kind of blown away that an application like Evernote would ever have 360 people working on it. Given the scope of what it does, it seems like 54 people should be able to hold that fort down.
I reported a UX bug with the new iOS feature Screen Time when the first developer beta hit. Through the entire beta releases the only updates I got were “we pushed a new release, can you test again?”.

Needless to say the bug made it to the final release of iOS 12. I’m done filling out bug reports for this reason.
In the future, you will go out with a headset and a pair of gloves instead of your keyboard.
I like the way you're framing this. Are there any works of moral philosophy that you would recommend?
This is good feedback I can use, will implement this.
It is a design issue with the keyboard.
I recently purchased a HP Envy x360 15z [1] and it might not be the most rugged I feel it is a solid laptop with good build quality. I also like that its one of the few on the market today with a AMD Ryzen APU (I got it with the 2700U). This gives the advantage of great linux support with the AMDGPU drivers and a nice compromise between Intel integrated graphics and some of the dual gpu offerings. The only issue in linux is the touchscreen is currently not functional out of the box. There is a bugzilla entry and patches but they have not been upstreamed yet [2].

IP-address is considered personal data. So when the browsers visits a page with the JS, the IP-address of the user is transferred to your server. So that means the website I am visiting is sharing my IP-address with a third-party (you).
In general, one must toss a salad to get good dressing distribution when the dressing is viscous.

The article on the British Airways hack goes into a bit more detail, but still not enough to slake my curiosity.

https://www.riskiq.com/blog/labs/magecart-british-airways-br...

It seems like we just don't have enough information to know how exactly the attackers got the JS onto the page. What it looks like, though, is that some machine serving static files for the website got compromised, and the attackers replaced an innocent file with one that had some custom javascript tacked onto the end, that skimmed the credit card numbers.

For what it's worth, PCI compliance doesn't really help you keep your webservers secure, or to keep people from breaking into your servers at all, it's more about the way you permanently store credit card numbers.
Exactly what I thought as well, for what it is at the moment it isn't worth anything. Also I doubt that Analytics is a B2B only product, the majority will be private persons running their blog or hobby forum using it.
I have come to realise that there's quite a survivor bias in childhood experience, too, whenever someone suggest that today's kids are pampered and parents are hysterical and after all, when we were kids we did all these fun things you cannot do anymore because safety - but yet we survived just fine, didn't we?

I looked up the stats going back a few decades - in the sixties, an average hundred kids died in traffic each year here in Norway. Now? Two or three. Yet we drive more and the population is significantly larger, too.

Drowning (the other biggie) is down by a similar factor.

Generic accidents? Also down by at least an order of magnitude.

We may sigh all we want that kids today are glued to their playstations while we were out building tree huts, conducting -ahem- applied pyrotechnics experiments and similar - but the fact of the matter is that kids today survive childhood. We didn't. :/
I don't really get the charges here. No manufactorer competes on how environmently clean their cars are, as most consumers don't care beyond fuel efficiency. As such there's no real point for manufacturers to glue on more emissions equipment once government standards are reached; if this upsets the government than make standards stricter.

I vaguely remember some collusion accusations over inflated AdBlue prices, though I'm not sure how you're supposed to get a supply/demand thing going on there if the government requires consumers to buy diseal additives.

Dell Precisions have always been pretty durable. The newer ones have gotten much thinner and lighter, and I've not used them, but you can often find refurbished sub $500 m4800s that can still support 32GB of ram, multiple sata drives, discrete graphics, etc.
> One of the strongest criticisms against the old code of conflict is that it did not enumerate the types of behavior that are unwelcome. The new one cannot be criticized on that account.

Except that the list contains rules that are so general as to be completely subjective. The last rule forbids, "Other conduct which could reasonably be considered inappropriate in a professional setting."

The problem with such general rules is that you get selective enforcement. Node.js has the same code of conduct, and it has been used to try to evict Rod Vagg from the technical committee[1] for tweeting a link to a Quillette article on freedom of speech[2]. Rod's tweet got him in hot water, but one of his peers had plenty of blatantly sexist tweets and received no reports for CoC violations.[3]

Successful startup founders invest in their own ventures
This is a great idea and I love the design.

It looks like anyone can see the stats for any domain using the service without any authentication. I added the tracking code to my domain and was able to hit https://simpleanalytics.io/[mydomain.co.uk] without signing up or logging in. I was also able to see the stats for your personal site.

Is that intentional? If it is, it seems like an odd choice for a privacy-first service. If not, it seems like quite a worrying oversight in a paid-for product.

I suppose we're fortunate that almost all of the information we want is on the web now. The age when it wasn't on the web was really terrible.
Snow Leopard and Windows 2000 I believe will long be fondly remembered by some, for being stable releases that barely introduced new features, but focused instead on stability.
Security through obscurity is is not useless, but its not much protection either. There are virtually countless open source projects with public bug tracking, many of which are highly public critical internet facing applications used by millions.
Looks good! I'm the founder of a similar service (Blockmetry). Obviously non-tracking web analytics is the future!

I'm curious why you chose to host the data yourself instead of giving customers the data immediately at the point of collection. That's the path we chose for Blockmetry as it genuinely required to be a non-tracking web analytics service and makes it impossible to profile users. Any service that hosts its data would still be open to being untrusted on the "no tracking no profiling" argument.

Thanks,
Pierre

So this is an area of my interest. I actually hope to one day be able to improve diagnosis of certain diseases through apps.

I have widespread tendinitis caused by a reaction to a medication. I have seen many physicians and ALL OF THEM are just terrible with dealing with stuff they don't have expertise in.

Also, my cousin recently got diagnosed with EDS she suffered for over 20 years but they just made the diagnosis now.

I cannot comprehend why doctors aren't just open when they have not diagnosed a disease with some symptoms and ask to schedule another appointment. They go type some terms into google and at least come up with a checklist or a plan to test for diseases. The worst thing is when you have done some ACTUAL RESEARCH and can even provide certain studies but they straight up don't have the will to look at it. I think many doctors are just getting burned out by the current state of the medical system in the US, which is definitely not helping.

As a SE I often say, I have never done that before but I'm sure with a little time I can get it done. Medicine is supposed to be based on science but some doctors do not trust drug companies and studies anymore, as that is another shit show. There is pressure on researchers to obtain positive results.

A 2013-2015 Mac Book Pro 15" with the old style keys if you can find one. I know a lot of orgs and devs are snatching them up these days. Mines been going strong for years. My wife bought the current gen MBP and its been in for repairs twice already over that damn keyboard.

I also have a T410 Thinkpad running linux and while the screen sucks, its a tank and still runs great. Super repairable too.

Gonna sound like an old guy here but they truly don't make em like they used to. If you are looking for true durability, might be that getting something a few years old is just the ticket.
If I’m a rational landlord and the market is efficient: I figure out what percent of income is typically spent on rent (P). If people suddenly get $N more, I immediately raise rent by N x P because the market will now bear exactly that much more. Assume all landlords are as rational and we are back where we started.

This strikes me as a fairly low-value article. I mean, you can take basically any subject, over-simplify it to ludicrous levels, and make it seem silly.

"Aerospace engineering - is the emperor wearing clothes?" --> Well, it's just mixing a combustible substance (no need for fancy terms like "propellant") and something with a lot of oxygen in it (why did they need to invent the term "oxidizer", lol) and burning it really hot and fast to produce "thrust" so we can push a metal tube into the sky. It's not magic, or anything terribly special.

Sadly this article seems to be trying very hard to be dismissive, but yet thoroughly fails to dismiss anything. It also doesn't manage to explain anything to anybody in a way that's helpful. It kinda leaves you wondering "what was the point of that?"
I'm definitely interested in your results. I do want to chime in to say that I do not think this would, in any way, take away from any of these efforts. If anything, I would hope they would all help challenge each other. In a beneficial way.

Magecart claims another victim in Newegg merchant data theft
The best manager I ever had was the polar opposite of a micromanager. Very laid-back, offered insightful ideas, but not in pushy way. He gave us a lot of freedom to get the work done and didn't constantly check in every day.

What I really admired about him was his ability to keep his cool and "Don't Panic", even when everyone else was worked up about an emergency. He always just took the bad news in stride and suggested some possible courses of action.

It also helped that although he had some of the stereotypical engineering awkwardness, he liked to make off-hand comments that were often hilarious and Star Wars-related.

I never thought of our standups as the Jedi council.
> But I live here in Puerto Rico, and the notion that our stable economic future has to be a handout from the United States rankles a bit.

I'm not sure what you're referring to as a "handout". The Jones Act itself is, if anything, outright theft by the federal government. Eliminating it isn't a handout.

I guess it's uncomfortable to say that the fate of Puerto Rico is in the hands of the US government, but on the other hand... that's exactly what colonialism is. The US has colonized and pillaged Puerto Rico for decades, and it's an ugly truth, yes, but it's the truth nevertheless. As long as that systemic exploitation continues, it doesn't really matter what Puerto Rico itself does.

> After all, Hawaii's economic stability doesn't seem to be questioned very often, and they're even more susceptible to Jones Act problems than we are

Well, that's not true - Hawaii suffers immensely from the Jones Act as well, and if you talk to people from Hawaii (people who've grown up there and spent their entire lives there, not transplants), they'll be able to tell you these Jones Act horror stories firsthand. Hawaii is overall in a better state that Puerto Rico, yes, but that's due to other factors which mitigate the effects of the Jones Act; it doesn't mean the Jones Act isn't still a crushing burden for them.

If you like the MBP but want to use GNU/Linux, you don’t need to install it on the MBP’s bare metal. You can use it in a virtual machine. I use my home desktop as a gaming machine (running Windows) and as a coding machine running FreeBSD in a VM and it works great.

You probably don’t even need to set up X-Windows on the GNU/Linux guest. You can just run it headless and ssh in from a terminal on the macOS host.
