Putting aside the very rude "dude", it is not a matter of how RSUs work or do not work, more simply they never talk about RSUs because they do not give RSUs.
As I said, you never got an offer or you did not pay any attention. It is fine either way, of course. No need for any letter.

- That there are no gods - invisible friends aren't real, there's no afterlife, Jesus doesn't love you, the universe wasn't created for humans, ethics and morality weren't given from the sky etc.

This is a VERY personal concept that you can't prove, just like religion (which atheism and scientism are very similar to these day).

RedMart's experience with PWA
> I want it to be 100% "loyal" to me and not to the manufacturer

That is ideal, but inevitably I think there has to be a bit of a give and take there because the manufacturer is likely the most trustworthy party to handle the security of their vehicles (they have the most to lose).

For example, it's very difficult to make new keys for modern cars. Most manufacturers require that you go through them, and in fact a very secure department within the company, to get a "keycode" to make new keys. I think most people would agree that is a reasonable security benefit because it makes it almost impossible for a thief to make a new key even though it adds some extra hoops for the legit owner when they want a new key.

But Chrysler, for example, allows you to buy a new keyfob from anywhere you want, even repurpose an old one and program it yourself if you have two existing keyfobs for your car (that way a valet or service center with only one keyfob can't do it, only the owner with both keyfobs can do it).

Tesla was the first to encrypt their vehicle firmware and I believe they had to do this in order to do over the air updates, and I think that was also a necessity given the way they chose to do service operations (which also made sense since their goal was to have very few moving parts and therefore reduce the need for service center visits altogether).

I think eventually the head unit will be powerful and secure enough that they will be able to initiate many of these secure "repairs" from there. But, that will require that unit to be very locked down, likely to the same level that some of Apple's devices are (you can't self-swap the secure enclave in iPhones or macbooks since that is what manages security for those devices). The car's head unit would become the "secure enclave" for the car. Right now, the car is more of a distributed system, with no particular ECU being responsible for others... which is why you need an OEM tool to reprogram them.

I hope cars become more modular at the same time. Electric cars should last a lot longer and making it easier to swap key components, like Tesla is doing with their main AI computer, with faster better units will be great... especially if the head unit becomes the hub for the rest of the car, it would be nice to upgrade those when new advancements warrant it.
It may be useful to take people's actual behaviour into account, instead of starting from the assumption that they must be idiots.

As it happens, no tool has been more successful at making this idea of "everyone being a coder" than the spreadsheet. It's an excellent (pun intended) gateway drug, with low barriers of entry, and a value proposition that was obvious enough to get accountants to spend 5 figures on a Mac when computers were something completely new.

Sure, the language is clunky. But it's apparently enough for most peoples' needs. I can't immediately think of any reasons for this almost moralistic criticism of Excel.

It seems like it would be a weekend project to convert Excel worksheets to sequential code in a universally-readable textfile, plus a separate CSV for the data. That would make sharing and reproducibility just as easy as easy as getting them to switch out their complete toolchain. But I have doubts that unwillingness to share code & data is actually a technical problems, instead of a lack of incentives/embarrassment of sharing ones' awful code/dreams of patents future/privacy issues.

I'm also not convinced that Julia as I have experienced it would be any better for long-term reproducibility. Last time I tried Julia, about every second package had a specific version that it required, and very few of them shared their preferences.
How to fix credit
Hello everyone my name is Suzan and I live in the states of Chicago, Illinois. I want to say a big thank you to a trusted hacker friend. I had a very low credit score 478 and it was running my life. I was depressed because this stopped me from acquiring a mortgage or even a home for me and my family. I have being trying to repair it but it seems no specialist could raise my score quickly. I needed something to be done fast, I almost gave up my search for a good hacker because I kept meeting fake ones who are after the money and I’ve been conned by them but REPAIR WIZARD is not about the money but attaining a good reputation and always satisfying his clients. He got my score increased to 700s after 5 working days. I promised him that my friends and everyone on social network will hear of his good work. You can reach out to him if you need a trusted hand via his email; REPAIRWIZARD4@GMAIL.COM; +1 520 441 6561.
Strict 7-day weeks were a Jewish thing from sometime before 500 BC, unrelated to the Roman calendar. Even in other cultures that split time into weeks based on lunar phases, weeks were adjusted to match the moon (a lunar week is ~7.4 days).

From what I understand the Romans didn’t adopt a 7-day week as a core part of the calendar until after the emperor had converted to Christianity. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nundinae

Well, in electronics they use log to base 10. For power, dB = 10 * log (p2/p1). For volts dB = 20 * log (v2/v1). For power, 3 dB would represent 10 ^ .3 or around 1.99X gain, 6 dB = 10 ^.6 or around 3.98X gain. For volts then 6 dB (10^.3) is around 1.99X and 3 dB becomes (10^.15) around 1.4X

I could never go back to sleeping on a thick mattress. I used to do 10" of foam, on a 10" box spring. Never again.

The mattress-pad I use is 4mm of sponge. I use it to help with air-flow under my body. I think I'm eventually going to wean myself off it and sleep on a sheet on a wooden floor (or perhaps a tatami mat type thing).

It helps a lot that I don't have a "steady" love-life. I keep a bed in a guest-bedroom for the dalliances though. Nobody else I've met in real life so far agrees with the concept of sleeping without a mattress. Pity (for them).
I am always amazed people actually fall for these.

A season-based calendar, The World Season Calendar, was proposed by Isaac Asimov.

It consisted of four seasons, named A, B, C, and D, corresponding to Winter/Spring/Summer/Autumn in the Northern Hemisphere and Summer/Autumn/Winter/Spring in the Southern Hemisphere.

Each season looked like this:

Sun Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri Sat
01 02 03 04 05 06 07
08 09 10 11 12 13 14
...
85 86 87 88 89 90 91

That gives 91 x 4 = 364 days.

An extra day, called Year Day, occurs between D 91 and A 01 of the next year, and is not part of the 7 day week cycle. In leap years another extra day, also outside the week cycle, called Leap Day is added between B 91 and C 01.
The French [0] tried to implement this twice! They failed both times, and I think it's due to more than having everyone in the world (or country) relearn to hold time in their head. Ultimately I believe it becomes less practical in day-to-day usage. 12 (and obviously 60, as a multiple of 12) can be divided by 2,3,4, and 6, while 10 can only be divided by 2 and 5. This would be the most difficult change for people, as a quarter or third of an hour are important metrics for daily life (I understand that seconds expand the divisibility for the sake of quarters (thirds remain unattainable), but this can happen in our current system and it's not often people speak in eighths of hours). I think this is a more common usage than the expansion of seconds-to-minutes, hours-to-seconds, etc. (a use-case where the decimal system really shines). Though, perhaps with the simplicity of the scaling, people would change their perspective on how they think/speak about time! It's definitely interesting to think about.

As an aside, I think this makes for a lot of practical uses for the imperial system of measurement. In a scale-intensive environment (science labs, kitchens, etc.), I think it would be foolish to not use metric. However, with small, one-off projects (mostly w/r/t length) I think it makes great sense to use feet and inches for halves, thirds, and quarters.

I used to go to a Feldenkrais practitioner (since retired, alas) who was extraordinary. At one point during the session, when one side of my body had been "worked over" but not the other side, the relaxed leg would be actually be an inch longer than the as-yet-untreated leg.

If you're interested, find and read Feldenkrais' books.

One of the fascinating discoveries he made was that our internal proprioceptive perceptions are often muted and/or distorted, and that this is a pathological condition, in the sense that improving the fidelity of our proprioceptive perception improves physical, mental and emotional health.

The man himself led an interesting life. He was an engineer and physicist and one of the first westerners to earn a black belt in Judo.

it is in the government's best interest to keep the citizens employed and happy and therefore there is a lot of "useless" jobs like the one you mention.

What is useless to one man is a lifeline to another.

I saw a documentary on NHK, and one of the points it made is that there are millions and millions and millions of people in China who need a job — any job — just to put food on the table. These are people who are so poor and poorly educated that they don't even know how to write their own names. Signatures are done with a fingerprint in red ink.

This one guy was so very happy to be employed full-time clearing sidewalks. With a broom made of twigs during the warm months, and with the same broom made of twigs to slowly clear deep snow in the cold months. But he was employed, by an organization that will pay him regularly and won't cheat him on his wages. So he's grateful to be better off than most of the other people he knows.

texas https://gitlab.com/dgmcguire/texas is a library that brings development back to the server. You can integration test without headless browsers, get SPA-like UX without writing a line of JS and basically just write SSR apps with only adding a few lines of code to make you apps realtime and SPA-like.

It works by leveraging persistent connections (websockets) first page load is entirely SSR and subsequent updates are SSR, but only by V-DOM diffing html fragments, sending only the minimum amount of patch data over the wire.

Your apps will be faster, your development process will be faster with less code and removing all kinds of complex tooling.

Here's a todoapp that does all rendering SSR https://warm-citadel-23442.herokuapp.com/ - you can see just how fast it is even on a free tier of heroku - open it up in multiple clients and you'll see that all operations are realtime broadcasted too and believe it or not there's only like 3 lines of code you write to make that happen (plus all the code necessary to get a normal SSR app running)

The relevant result from relativity is that you cannot rely on synchronized clocks to construct an unambiguous ordering of events. Latency by itself is not sufficient to cause this, as the system could still wait until the message has been fully distributed, then use the timestamps to reconstruct the timeline.

However, CS does have to deal with this issue for the simple reason that we are already unable to synchronized our clocks to the extent necessary to avoid it (or, at least, it is not worth the engineering effort to do so).

They aren't mutually exclusive, but they are either a) at odds with each other because the frontend is in javascript and the backend is in Rails or Python or something else, or b) completely in sync because the backend and front end is in javascript, but terrible because the backend and the front end is in javascript. With web assembly on the horizon we will soon have Rust/Crystal/Go-driven unified backend+frontends, and then we can finally exit this dark age of JS being the only front end language.
Thanks for a great illustration of false dichotomy.

and the BBC manuals were pretty good. So was Newman and Sproull as well as David Levy's computer gamesmanship. And now that we are talking about this I do remember when I used the line numbers. I came to the BBC from the TRS80 Color Computer/Dragon 32, and that one had the good old Microsoft ROM basic, which did not have such luxuries.

It really clicked for me when writing a musical score editing program, that I tried to put together using the 'old' way and then tried it again using the 'structured' way. The second time around the program made it to completion and it was lots easier to understand so I never really looked back after that. So to me that became the 'normal' way of doing things but I totally see how it could be that this experience was not typical.

You are also right that they were not cheap, my fully decked out 'beeb' (double drives, 256K ram expansion) cost me more than a years worth of savings. But looking back it was most probably the best investment I ever made. It gave me a career.

Microsoft wouldn't even need to license Firefox, they could build their own browser on top of it and do minimal work. They already do that on Android (Chrome) and iOS (Safari), and once GeckoView stabilizes, they can even use that on Android.

However, I think it's more of a branding thing. Microsoft wants a complete experience when you install their OS, and they want something that will keep users on that platform. If they build IE, they can control the platforms it runs, which means users will feel uncomfortable on anything else.

* It takes 9.96 seconds from hitting enter and clicking compose for the new message window to pop up.

* It takes a whopping 15.95 seconds from hitting enter until the new message window pops up if you use the the following link: https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/#inbox?compose=new

Those times are pretty damn terrible. Even worse, this is with a primed cache!
