>So a few addictive shows that make you need to keep Netflix are betters than keeping you on Netflix all day every day.

Not really, as you're more likely to drop the service you're not on "all day every day" than otherwise. And the fewer the addictive shows the more chance you'll get addicted to something else next year on another service (or just download the stuff).
UTM is widely used and is the standard way of expressing position within many countries, where lat/lon is second-class citizen on everything but phone navigators.
>That does nothing for IP based geo location though

Of course, since ip "geolocation" is just ip data + location agregatted from ISPs. How can the OS maker "fight" this ?
There are two things to consider;

1. Version numbers are not that much of an indication to stability. RN is much more battle-tested.
2. Udacity and AirBnB both have been using React Native in a "use the bad parts" fashion. (Specifically, they have been using it with an existing app instead of from scratch). It is not really fair to React Native to be honest. However one thing from Udacity is quite fair, RN is much worse on Android in comparison to iOS.

I think giving it a try and having something new in your toolset is a nice idea. However, I doubt Flutter will be "RN is dead long live the new RN".

Finally, I really don't trust Google not to axe this project too on a spite. However that might be more personal so keep it out of the equation.

> And right now, the tangible evidence for symbolism is simply not cutting it.

In AI/ML perhaps. In the biological and psychological sciences the importance of symbols to cognitive functioning is pretty well established.

Just look at how important the mastery of language is for complicated thought. One of the main differences between linguistic thought and other forms of thinking is all about symbol manipulation.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5R3moEtEmIA This one I saw recently.
AppleScript existed on System 7 - I used to use it like a very limited command line (scripting common activities and complex workflows.)

The fun thing about it was that you were essentially interfacing with the GUI. Everything was incredibly discoverable - if you knew something was possible then it was almost always obvious how to do it in AppleScript.
For mobile, windows does not exist. Android? It is owned by Google anyways.
Sorry this is probably my bad. I should have clarified this in the original post.
The world is already improving at blazing pace https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enlightenment_Now

I am not "white" but rewriting everything due to PC culture is idiotic. We must learn from the good and the bad. Also attacking men, family, and fatherhood at every chance is getting old. Simpsons did it, already, and long ago. And even they are under attack for being racist.

Don't get me wrong. Make your content and do your thing. Just stop shoving it down everyone else's throat. For example, YouTube Impulse which is more about MeToo than sci-fi.
They might, they might not. They’re also fallible humans who silo their knowledge from each other as protection against other state agencies, and the downside of sioling your internal information is more dumb-looking mistakes and resistance to fixing them. Heck, that resistance is why Snowden did his thing in the first place.
Do you mean something like www.chargebee.com ?
I keep Location Services on iOS and GPS off at all times, unless I really need them. Even on iOS, I make sure that the only app that can use it is google maps. This works great for privacy, but I have issues with compass calibration.
The transformers are usually less reliable than the LED's themselves.

Also, LED's unlike nearly every other electrical device are constant current devices (as opposed to constant voltage, which is what a USB port, battery, or nearly any other power supply offers for example).

Constant current devices must be wired in series rather than parallel, meaning that if you wanted more than one LED per transformer, you would need to break the existing circuit to add an extra LED. That isn't really compatible with standards around electrical plugs - you would need to short out all unused electrical outlets in a constant current system.

Constant Voltage vs Constant Current is another one of those 'DC vs AC' or 'electron has positive or negative charge' issues - We have chosen one standard, and everything is built on it. We could go back and redecide, but all infrastructure would need updating.
> the most liberal, that capitalism has lifted a billion people out of poverty over the last half century.

I often hear this about capitalism, but why do same people never attribute the genocide of American natives, enslavement of Africans and Indians, to capitalism? The earliest emergence of stock companies, lay waste and devastation to an entire sub-continent.

When the sixth mass extinction is underway, ecological disaster on a global scale, and yet "it be as it be", but this is not attributed to capitalism?

Capitalism: it sits to bask in every glory, and all its failures expelled, literally explained away
Just because something is better now than in the past does not mean that it cannot be improved. We cannot be placated with what we have but must constantly strive to move forward. That is how human progress is built.
I would imagine the road rage comes more from insecurity. Feeling like a doofus for driving an SUV, and being triggered by someone that's clearly not as insecure.
Youtube is KING! Even if 99.9999% of the content sucks you still have thousands of great videos. Like https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rBmnQN78aZU Matthias Wandel.

Scripted shows are terrible. Movies are terrible. Edufun is where it is at.

I think that we need more people compiling the best of videos on Youtube.

>Even if we don't do the full analysis we can see that someone spending 60 minutes on youtube instead of netflix means that netflix is not paying for that 60 minutes of bandwidth.

The bandwidth would be insignificant to Netflix compared to churn. Not to mention, with edge caches at telcos and so it, it would be already paid.
> Yes, a concept that is very human-friendly.

It's also entirely broken, rendering the system unusable if you expect sub-kilometer positioning across different geocoding providers.

Whether something entirely defective is "human friendly" doesn't really matter.

> You should take that up with the google devs I guess. The code I gave was generated by google maps.

Not my responsibility. That they cannot even use it correctly as per their own docs themselves doesn't make for a good sales pitch. In fact, Google Maps cannot process plus codes using arbitrary reference locations, making use per the plus-code documentation impossible with it.

To give an idea of why that plus code is borked:

Honolulu @ Google Maps: 21.3069444,-157.8583333

Honolulu @ Bing Maps: 21.30493,-157.85788

The difference is around 300 meters, which results in an absolutely awful error margin, and I'd argue that this is very much one of the best-case scenarios. That's worse than if they had added 2 more characters to the plus code, and just removed the Honolulu part.

Yes, there is AdGuard, AdAway, and others on both Android and iOS.
> Also I was pleasantly surprised to discover that Google Maps now remembers searches you've made without location history or app activity tracking being active. This wasn't the case about a year ago, when I last tried it, a dark pattern of sorts. They probably changed the behavior being forced by the GDPR or something similar.

Location history wasn't ever needed for remembering searches, FWIW.
You constantly assume bandwidth is a big concern for Netflix.
I'm in the same boat here, hope they keep it up for a little longer. The new re-design is atrocious, almost makes the website unusable for me.
“We’re not doing anything not disclosed in our terms of service.” is rapidly becoming a no longer acceptable answer to consumers.

Don’t tell me a weather app needs to know my location all the time to give me the best weather info then sell my location to the highest bidder. Don’t tell me that buried in some 20 pages of leagalese in your Ts&Cs is some vague references that make this “legal.”
Any tips for avoiding location sharing on Android?
> For example, YouTube Impulse which is more about MeToo than sci-fi.

You’re more optimistic than me. I see it like Brexit: they demand all the advantages and none of the disadvantages and angrily dismiss anyone who tells them it’s an impossible combination.
It shows questions based on what you've looked up previously. You must have looked this up. I only see questions about research methodologies, for example.
I don't see how Sargon can be considered far-right. The only "far right" positions I can think of him holding are those relating to national sovereignty (Brexit) and being against the concept of hate speech and in favor of free speech.

What ideas has he promoted that makes him far right?

Otherwise sure, Alsup and Milo can be called far right.
Glhf with that.

Honestly, relying on any such work flow to find something as critical as visa requirements is insane. At least I wouldn't want to rely on some service which failed to detect that some Russian government page updated their web page and considers the page outdated. The page could still exist while incoming links are removed or similar.
> Location history wasn't ever needed for remembering searches

It absolutely was. When I tapped on the search bar, there were no results and it told me to turn on location history.

A rich man is just a poor man with a lot of money.

The biggest drug with having money is the opportunities that come with it. Financial freedom is freedom to chose what you want to do with your life and who you want to do it with.

That's one half of the drug. That your days suddenly can look like one long adventure without too much repetition besides what you choose.

The apple in paradise is that other people have more than you and thus you start comparing to richer people and make that the new standard.

Finding the balance between enjoying what you have and wanting more is such a fundamental struggle in humans and start with the poor person without the money.
I'm with O2 and was affected, and they have messaged me promising credit of 2 days of my airtime bill.
Living in Brazil right now. I'm pretty satisfied with Netflix. It's not as good as when they started with Starz, but it's got a lot of content in both English and Portuguese, and most everything is subtitled and lots of the content is dubbed (as opposed to content I've bought from Google play which annoyingly doesn't even have the option to buy in another language, so I can't invite friends over to watch).
So does cholera. But if you spend your work time trying to spread cholera you get a bit of blame.
I Learned that if low freq LED flicker strains your eyes, then there's a chance you'll feel discomfort from emerging display HDR color dithering as well. For example, if the panel is 8bit but it shows you 10bit color space by 8 bit plus A-FRC.

Bought a 2018 Macbook pro and it produces similar symptoms like years ago when I had a laptop with bad low freq LED backlight.

Right now using a late 2010 and a 2013 Macbook Pro both with native screens and on external screens and it does not make my head hurt. 2018 one strains me both on native screen and on my otherwise good daily driver BenQ monitor.

What happens when that service closes down at short notice?
Of course.

But I noticed that many people were happy with the previous situation, and a lot are not with the new one, despite it being by all objective attributes, better.

I believe the issue here is perception, expectations and ability to enjoy. Not netflix which does an incredible job.

In a world of abundance and lack of attention, the public is bound to be unsatisfied.

It's not sane, IMO, if your brain think it is still hungry when you live in the most amazing all-you-can-eat buffet of all time.

Introspection is in order.

You're right that the methods are simoly not good enough. Further a large fraction of pharma research has shifted to biologics which doesn't depend on structure prediction for new compounds, etc but they only need the hi res structure of their target protein (which more often than not is already done) to go on and generate the antibodies and make sure they direct the desired motif on the target.
I dunno, YouTube's catalog of originals is so tiny it can be watched during free trial. Even if Netflix catalog is smaller outside US it's still huge, originals are great and I'm willing to pay for it.
> CBTC has been an utter shit show in San Francisco

CBTC is used all day, every day by cities all over the world without issue. I've personally taken hundreds, if not thousands, of trips on train systems with this technology and it works perfectly.

If SF is having problems with CBTC it says a lot more about SF than CBTC.

There are several variations that are sometimes called intermittent fasting or IF. Daily time restricted feeding, alternate day fasting and 5:2 approach are each sometimes referred to as intermittent fasting.

I have the most experience with time restricted feeding which is a daily extension of the overnight fast until midday. Sixteen hours of fasting and a window of 8 hours for eating or 16:8. I do this nearly every day. Sometimes I will extend the fasting to as much as 22 or 23 hours and essentially eat one large meal that day (OMAD).

That practice initially helped me lose weight. It works by making it easier to eat less. I combine that practice with weightlifting 5 days a week.

I have been deliberately eating more the last year or so while lifting heavy in order to build more muscle and try to hit a certain goal. So the practice isn't exclusively for losing weight.

But doing this practice for years means that I feel much more in control of eating and my weight. When I decide to cut again it seems pretty straightforward. Extend my normal fast from 16 to 22 hours a day and eat one large healthy meal a day (OMAD) and the weight will fall back off fairly quickly.

I have, much more rarely, extended a fast to about 40 to 46 hours.

Having done a pretty fair amount of reading of scientific literature and other people's experiences along with observing my own body I am convinced that it is contributing in a very positive way to my overall health.

Inflation is a sustained increased in the level of relevant-currency-denominated prices of a weighted basket of goods (or "all goods") over time; deflation the reverse. Alternately and equivalently inflation can be viewed as the dilution of purchasing power of that currency (in terms of real world goods and services). This is the orthodox definition of inflation, as used by economists and laypeople, inflation hawks and inflationistas alike.

Unlike counting numbers in circulation and hoping purchasing power will be broadly proportional to it, this standard definition of inflation has practical relevance. The number of now-defunct Zimbabwean dollars in circulation turned out to be eventually constant, but it didn't mean they didn't turn out near worthless because people strongly preferred payment in other currencies instead.
While there are certainly conditions high frequencies (tens of kilohertz) can be detected by a human, this explanation isn't it.

In general, light is linear and time invariant. That means in a flickering light system, a flicker of blue light then of red light, or red and blue at the same time, are indistinguishable if the 'sampling' system doesn't have sufficient bandwidth to resolve the flicker at all.

There do exist nonlinear optical components[1], but none that exhibit nonlinearities at the light intensities you'll find at home!

Additionally, even if the above were not true, flickering LED sources tend to flicker at a multiple of the AC supply, so it's very unlikely you'd see one flickering at 1000 Hz and another at 1001 Hz for example. For battery powered devices, it could easily happen though.

Yes, but as you point out, those applications don’t need a blockchain to be involved. You’re just running an app somewhere that takes in data and transfers funds held in escrow.

I agree that there may be uses for that kind of automation, but probably you’re going to want human oversight and ability to intervene, and blockchain actually hinders that.
No, I was talking about the LED light bulbs that replace incandescent light bulbs. Every one of those comes with a transformer, which we throw away when the LEDs die (or vice-versa). Could we not separate the two and have a transformer supplying constant current, and then we could swap that or the LEDs out when one died?

I'm wandering the same. I have read this open letter and I cannot understand what the letter about. What author tries to tell? Why he have wrote this letter? Unclear message with unclear motives... My guess based on this, that the letter is exploded emotional instability caused by books of Elena Ferrante.

But, I'm not sure: if I cannot understand something, it doesn't mean that it is nonsense. Seems the only way to crack this and to understand what happens is to stop being ignorant about Elena Ferrante and read some of her books. Doesn't seem to be a fun.

The repo includes scripts that render Terraform files to deploy the infrastructure to Google Cloud in three regions and set up load balancing. Helm then sets up NFS access for WordPress via nfs-provisioner, SyncThing to synchronize the file system across regions (since WordPress stores e.g. uploaded media directly on the file system), and WordPress itself. Helm also provisions TiDB, which is a NewSQL database that can be used as a replacement for MySQL.

All in all, it is a nice demo and a reasonably minimal basis for a non-trivial application (as it uses both databases and a file system to store needed state) to geographically distribute.

I've used Philips Hue lights for a sort-of-flux for my office, it works fairly well. The hardware part of it seems like a solved problem with the availability of RGB smart bulbs (or the cheaper ones which only go from cold/blue-ish light to warmer orange light, without full RGB).

The software side could be improved.

Nonetheless, I actually don’t enjoy seeing my search history accumulate on my device. Half of my searches are just spell checks anyway, the next 40% are just wikipedia shortcuts. Probably less than one in ten searches are genuine queries, to scour for a real result.

The number is small enough that I pretty much can directly remember the thing I was thinking about, and why I searched for it. I don’t even want my device saving my recent searches.

I think you misunderstood the way these reference locations work. Both google maps and bing will resolve the given plus code to the exact same location – a margin of error of 0cm.

It's only important that the reference point doesn't leave the 40km square that it's supposed to be in. Google Maps might actually have a smarter implementation than the docs suggest. If the whole city is in the relevant 40km square, using it as a reference point is fine.
Regarding "freedom of will": I quit my job when I accumulated about $500K in net worth. (Needless to say, I did not live in SV. However, my rent was about $1200/mo.)

The day after I quit my job and I didn't have to go in to work anymore, I felt such an extreme sense of joy that I don't think I ever felt in my life. At the time, my feeling was that "the exercise of free will" was the cause of this bliss - similar to what you're saying about freedom of will.

I didn't have to report to anyone, there was literally nothing that I had to do which did not come from within me.

This feeling lasted for about a year. I moved to a cheaper rental. My cash runway lasted about 5 years, and I felt really pretty good about life for the first 2-3 years. After that, I started to become more worried about whether I'd have to go back to work, or what kind of life I'd be able to live without that.

What I'm trying to say is that you can get to the freedom of will state with far less than $1M. It may not last forever. But I highly recommend doing it. It may be especially sweet for people like me, who have delayed gratification for decades.
