Some things off the top of my head (personal experiences):

1. Have had them turn off private WHOIS for all (hundreds of) domains "by accident".

2. I haven't figured out a way to export a list of domains after their UI revamp some years ago.

3. At some point they started setting DNS records for newly purchased domains to their landing page with a 30 minute TTL, which makes setting up something on the fly impossible, unless you use their API:

4. Their API is flaky at best. I wrote a script to register domains and set NS records and was forced to write a loop to set NS records up to 10 times until they got set properly.
I'll second this for but for any kind of exercise. If you're not disciplined enough (yet) to exercise by yourself, as the parent says, classes are a brilliant way to stick with it and keep motivated.

I get to the gym pretty much every day before work. The benefits are huge - more energy, better concentration, and of course just looking and feeling better in general.

Edit: for the deleted comment - I'm late 30s, not sure if that's young or not and I'm a night owl for sure. Also see a noticeable difference in those busy "I should skip the gym" periods if I don't go, as oppose to prioritising my exercise over my work (which yields far better results).
Yeah. It is called a cult.

Perhaps it is the Apple headset. The EarPods with Lightning Connector that came with iPhone 7 (bought on the Online Apple Web store) broke in 3 months.

I was too lazy to go the physical Apple Store for a claim and bought a second Earpods headset on the Online Apple Store that also broke in 3 months.

Then I went to the physical Apple Store, waited for an hour to get an Apple Genious attention and got it replaced on warranty.

The third EarPods have not broken yet after one year, so according to my data points, you have a 66% chance that the EarPods bought directly to Apple break in 3 months and a 100% chance that EarPods bougt directly to Apple on its Online Store break in 3 months.

An hourly worker can vote, the just have to forgo several hours of income to do so. This is particularly true in several Southern states, where polling places are few and far between in poor districts. It also doesn’t help that you have to vote in your home district, when you may work a long commute away, increasing the amount of time away from work even more.
The same reason why large parts of TOS are usually unenforceable.

Same deal when I was in the Army. Soldiers started smoking Spice and K2, which was just some plant substrate laced with a compound cooked up in a Chinaman’s laboratory, always one methyl group ahead of the regulators. Much scarier than any of the combat hazards I was exposed to.
There are many tutorials for creating a Raspberry Pi OS[0]. Running in a VM like qemu is the easiest and cheapest way to start (setting up a bootable SDcard is more involved).

A "something that boots" kernel is very small although obviously it doesn't do much. By the time you get to "hello world" the program will have grown but it's still relatively small.

I think first of all, possession of all drugs should be legalized. Secondly, we need state controlled entities that are allowed to sell drugs. This tackles a number of problems:

Better youth protection: a dealer doesn't care if you are 18 or not

Consumer protection: clean substances without dangerous cutting agents will prevent health issues and accidental overdoses

No more black market: as long as the legal substances aren't too expensive, a legalisation will close the black market for drugs since it is no longer economic to sell them illegally. (This might also take a huge hit on the finances of organised crime and terrorist organisations)

More money for helping addicts and _neutral_ drug education: when taxing the sells, the money can be used to treat addiction.

Further the legalisation might change society's point of view on drugs which might make it easier for addicts to seek help without being judged.

Before being able to buy drugs from these state controlled entities, the buyer should be required to acquire some kind of license. I imagine the license similar to a first aid course. Participants should be educated about health risks, dosages, safer use guidelines and so on. There should be licences for different classes of drugs, e.g. opioids, stimulants, cannabinoids, psychedelics and so on.
I'm curious how those disputes ended up - did you end up getting any of them taken off?
Labor is more expensive. Materials are more expensive. Property is more expensive. Lawsuits from poor civil engineering are more expensive. And all are getting more expensive all the time.

Your "let's make things cheaper by sacrificing quality" seems to smell of a very deep ignorance of how this stuff works.
> One USBC male to Two USBC female

What are you gonna do with the “alternate modes” (DisplayPort, Thunderbolt, etc)? You can indeed split the USB side into two ports by acting as a hub, but alternate modes can’t be split so easily.

What would you do with incoming power? Only one of the two female ports would be able to accept power from a charger.

> USBC male to dual HDMI plus any way to power, no such thing.

You can’t split the DisplayPort alternate mode into two separate outputs.
Yup. And that lack of polling places and understaffing is usually an effort by the party in power to suppress the vote in key (opposing) districts.

I've not completely stopped, but I am going to local alternatives more often now, all because of the counterfeit issue. In addition to Target, I'm also shopping at Best Buy again, so these competitors should take notice of this vulnerability for Amazon.
I like your analysis, but I find the pledge problematic. Vendors work against each other and would consider frauds like hiring people to buy a real product and return a fake.

One note about synthetic marijuana, I always thought the existence of it's market demand was primarily due not to prohibition/absence but the asinine legal, financial or social consequences that can come along with failing a drug test for THC... (losing a job, professional license, education funding, etc). Of course, in the US at least, those mostly arose after, as a reaction to prohibition.

TL;DR. I think very few people smoke(d) Spice (TM)? because they simply couldn't access marijuana.
I think the big win is that now instead of every IoT company trying to figure out how they can update endpoint devices, the company that has been doing endpoint device updates for 20 years will give it to you as a service if you use their platform.
I thought the same, but people often order Ubers for each other, or share a ride where the payer party gets out first.

A more useful feature would be to make payments subject to a confirmation and don't allow the costumer to request a new ride until payment has been made (or disputed). You already have to leave review and (skip) tip after every ride anyway.
Right, that's why we dont have speed limits, and people only get punished after they cause a fatal accident.

Or are you completely unwilling to believe that complex, and opaque systems need any kind of regulation to prevent abuse by people at all levels. And that people at the bottom of the system are the most likely to be abused by said system.

> The results are pretty disturbing. Most people in Flanders essentially don't breathe clean air.

But in the autotranslation of the page with more details that I could find is not so bad: https://translate.google.com/translate?sl=auto&tl=en&js=y&u=...

> 2.3 percent of the measuring points, or 410 locations, is above the norm. Up to 150,000 people live up to Flanders. Exceedances occur in a third of all municipalities. Although the question is how relevant that limit is. The WHO is currently in a process to review the recommended exposure limits. The outcome is only expected in 2020, but it is probably going to 30 μg / m3.
That changes the picture for Flanders. 12.5 percent of the measuring points are above 30 μg / m3, which corresponds to the residence of about 813,000 Flemings. An orange ball in the street is not immediately reassuring. In addition, the WHO uses a 'threshold value' of 20 μg / m3. From then on, health effects occur. 60 percent of the measuring points are above the WHO threshold.
The most amazing thing about "trickle down economics" is that it was never a real economic theory .

It started as a Will Rogers joke. Opponents of Reagan administration started to use it [1]. Then amazing thing happened. Somehow people in the right started to believe that it's actually a thing with solid facts behind it. Then politicians followed. Some economists have even tried to find the effect. It seems not to exist.

[1]: Reagan administration believed in supply-side economics and free markets ad the cause of more economic growth.
No specific tools, but many home listings stay online for years. And any single home’s sale history is online too. Between the two, you can see how much a lake view is worth relative to the house one row away, or how quickly a neighborhood recovered from 2008, or the high and low sales over the last few years, etc.

>We believe that subscriptions - although currently going through an adjustment and acceptance period - are the future for apps that provide ongoing value.

> For apps that don't provide ongoing value, then yes, it may be difficult to survive & one-off payments are probably the only feasible revenue model in those cases.

How about the third option, which has proven to be very successful in the past - one-time payment and payments for larger upgrades. This leaves control in the hands of the user, keeps the old software actually running longer and incentivises developers to actually keep bringing value to the customers. While still giving them steady stream of income.

Of course, you'll first have to kindly beg Tim Cook to allow you to use this business model on Apple hardware.

I think going a couple of steps lower, learning electrodynamics (from a book like morin&purcell), and then electronics (art of electronics), will give you even more satisfaction.
I don't understand why this happens (often enough to be a serious problem).

Uber should be motivated to catch and stop this because the extra revenue from the scams is almost certainly not worth the loss of users that will result.

It should also be easy for Uber to detect this since they collect location data from both phones. Sure, one of the two could be faking the data, but they could check both traces for plausibility (this might be why they collect location data even for a few minutes after the trip has ended - to get a baseline), and even if they don't apply any advanced smarts, it should be easy to check whether a driver got caught doing this repeatedly with unrelated customers.

Is it just drivers trying it without realizing that it is unlikely to benefit them in the long term, or Uber being bad at their job?
I recently read Wittgenstein's quote; "The limits of my language are the limits of my mind.". I keep coming back to it.
You don't. And you don't need to. Your users are either willing to pay a recurring fee – or they're not. If not, you could try one-off fees. If people don't even pay that, your product is probably shit.
Yep, it's amazing how many pocket-sized 10,000+ lumen torches with hours of burn time for ludicrously cheap prices there are listed there. A common trick is they not only fit a knock-off LED unit, but running it at higher than rated voltage of the genuine unit too. 10.5v or 12v units run at 14v.

As for 18650s I would never buy anything but Panasonic or similar, the risks are just too great, but commingling robs you of the opportunity make an educated decision - you might get genuine Panasonics sourced through Amazon's own supply chain, or counterfeits from anywhere.

A lot of this stuff is obviously coming out of the same factories too... reputable brand X will order Y units of their product, which will be made to spec, then the factory will simply keep the production lines running afterwards with much cheaper materials/components and dump that into the supply chain too. Whether it's electronics or clothing or anything else. It's inevitable at some point that someone will die of hypothermia in a fake North Face jacket when the genuine version would have kept them warm.
> I really love stories about people who become totally, utterly absorbed in something, to the point where they obsessively spend time on it, in a kind of natural sense that does not require checklists, reminders, etc. It's just always their top priority, like an addiction, except with meaning and depth.

This is precisely why I avoid checklists and reminders, unless it's for collaboration purposes, events, or managing tasks for team based projects

If I need a checklist for a personal project, this means I haven't built an obsession over something I really want to do.

The fastest way to build an obsession is just to rapidly explore as many topics as possible, and document things at a shallow level continously. Eventually you'll come across bits of metadata you left behind, realizing that you had already looked into this once before, maybe you should consider deep diving. This could be forked github repos, likes on videos, buying electronic parts and building shitty DIY projects lying around, music you've learned, etc
Seems like Uber should track the distance of the rider’s phone from the distance to the driver’s phone.
I’m also curious— What evidence did you have to provide?
The existing rules were even less effective than what Uber is doing, though. One of the reasons why I use Uber when in an unfamiliar area is because of the significantly lower risk of scams.

> You can consume all the quiet in specific area at a specific time. If that's not a limited resource then nothing is.

a) I don't know how you'd measure 'all the quiet' to determine that I'd consumed all there was.

b) even if I did, it doesn't prevent you from consuming as much (up to all) of 'the quiet' as you wanted, too.

Which brings us back to why it's not a tragedy of the commons, and why the analogy doesn't work either.

That's the way JVM and .NET work. Dalvik moved the other direction and has explicit registers. Honestly the distinction is mostly a wash. The representations are essentially 1:1, any reasonable optimizer will be able to move stuff around regardless of whether it's a "register" or "local variable".

The counterpoint is the status quo. Keep building more roads and expanding suburbs. To be fair, this has worked well for the second half of the 20th century. Land was plentiful and a whole generation got the American dream suburban home at very affordable prices.

The roads were built very cheaply, often with federal subsidies, but much of this infrastructure is due for repairs and that’s where StrongTowns’s sustainability critique comes in. The status quo ignored future liabilities now coming due. And the political problem is structural: politicians get far more credit for building new roads and bridges than paying the bills for old ones or balancing budgets. So the forces that be are strongly pushing back against StrongTowns, and if you want to be skeptical and suspicious, I think it’s better to target that at the system rather than the skeptics trying to reform it.
