In the US, state laws strictly regulate who can and cannot be involuntarily committed to psych wards. Staff at the university really can't be any more "strict" or "harsh" than staff at any other councelling center.

In recent decades, psych-laws have become more strict because as a society we have decided that it is better to involuntarily detain 20 people for a few days rather than let one person end their life. That seems like a pretty fair tradeoff to me, although one that reasonable people could easily disagree on. If you disagree, you should be lobbying your state psychological association, not complaining about random therapists at colleges.

I'm not sure what your point is. That's exactly what we are saying - there is a legal standard for actually being a lawyer.

But, we are also saying there shouldn't be any repercusions for someone just saying that they are a lawyer in any non-financial, non-professional context. If you go out and say to someone "hey, I'm a lawyer and I am very smart" then this shouldn't be illegal in any way or form, just like saying you are a pope or Bonaparte isn't - you're just making an idiot out of yourself. As long as you don't go and act as a lawyer(try to represent people for money for instance) then knock yourself out. This should be double obvious seeing as we're on the internet, where you can say you are a noble-winning physicist or a NASA engineer and without a way to verify it it matters nothing. It is scummy, immoral, unfair to lie about it? Of course it is. But it shouldn't be illegal.

8. They lead to centralization of power in large firms.
A brief history of Web APIs
There is also Julio Cortázar's "Rayuela" book. Which could be read in the traditional order or begin in chapter 37 and at the end it would tell you which other chapter to go. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hopscotch_(Cort%C3%A1zar_nov...
The one time someone called an ambulance on me, I had lain down in the grass in a public park next to the sidewalk. I was walking somewhere and I have respiratory problems. I was having respiratory distress of a sort that doesn't resolve with sitting, but resolves handily if I just lay down for like ten minutes.

The only evidence that that there was a problem was that I was homeless and laying down. I had no collapsed. I was not thrashing about. There was no blood or foaming at the mouth or whatever.

Most likely, the reason they called an ambulance was pure prejudice and fear of approaching me to say "Hey, are you okay? Do you need help?" If I had not been homeless, they probably wouldn't have called an ambulance at all. They probably would have spoken to me to find out if I was in real distress or merely choosing to catch my breath.

An ambulance was also called once when my son laid down on the side of the road to rest while walking cross country. Locals saw strangers in their neighborhood and freaked out and called an ambulance.

In neither scenario was there any evidence of real distress beyond, well, we were obviously poor. The thing they had in common was we were poor and people were afraid to approach us because, obviously, homeless people are all junkies and crazies and will do something violent if you speak to them, I guess.

I spent most of my life middle class. I lived without a car for a number of years before being homeless. When I laid down in the grass to catch my breath while middle class, someone asked me "Are you okay?" rather than dialing 911 to sick the authorities on me. I told them I was fine and waved them on.

The irony: I was much, much sicker that day, having thrown up for 45 minutes in a public bathroom before continuing on my walk. But I was pursuing alternative remedies for my condition and walking was a big part of that and I wanted to be left the hell alone by the medical establishment has informed bluntly that people like me don't get well. So, no, I didn't want to talk a doctor about things that day. I wanted to be left the hell alone to pursue remedies that were working, remedies I was afraid the authorities would interfere with if I had to explain myself to them.

I also threw up in the bushes one day while homeless. An asshole yelled at me out their car window as they passed "Drink too much!" I don't drink. I do have a serious medical condition and sometimes my lunch doesn't stay down long because of it.

No, most people don't give a flying fuck about homeless individuals and their welfare. In most cases, they are just prejudiced assholes looking to fuck with the homeless. That's it.

Great Fourier transform explanation & video.
My capitalization means exactly what it says: someone with a license has met the minimum requirements from the state. Nothing else can be garnered from someone possessing a license.

The minimum requirements have, historically, resulted in engineers who put out public facing designs that, more often than not, do not bring harm to the public.

As someone who “has passed those tests” and been practicing for almost a decade, I can tell you first hand that sometimes the guy with a license who is actually at “the minimum” does not always put out something that is safe.
What I meant was cheap housing due to overbuilding.

BBEdit has a nice and distinct feeling of a well-baked application. I love its legacy parts with its take on modernism.

I'm not a very old user, but after touring the usual suspects, I've returned to it and I'm very happy with it.
> I was updating my [LinkedIn] profile because not doing it would raise more questions.

Is this true in anyone's experience? I've worked at banks for a long time and I've never had anyone ever bring up my Linked In profile, despite being connected to many of my colleagues. I doubt anyone is carefully watching my profile apart from the occasional check to see if I'm still at the bank or what location I am. I don't feel any pressure to update it. People just don't care in my experience, or maybe they don't care at my non-management level.
Do you have sources for those claims ?

It’s the second half of the article that contain the real insights - that what are termed “bullshit” jobs, and despised by the people working them, actually do create economic value. Today younger people have an expectation of meaningful work, even though the world for the most part still doesn’t provide it. This expectation / reality mismatch creates the impression that jobs are much stupider now then they used to be, when in fact most jobs used to be pretty terrible in the past too.
The kind of investing you are doin strikes me as immoral. Generates economic value for you while slowing the overall economy down. It’s the land version of human trafficking. You treat land like a prostitute.
If you're referring to what is mentioned in this post: https://medium.com/@Ne0nd0g/introducing-merlin-645da3c635a , I'm not sure "We use HTTP2 and TLS" is that significant of a difference. If there was some elaborate system in place for evasion, sure, but this is just "using a new, but standard, protocol before everybody else understands it yet". Heck, just the fact it's using TLS is about 90% of the evasion; HTTP2 is just icing on the cake.

A more significant difference I was thinking of is that ansible et al are more focused on getting the system into a certain state, whereas a C&C server is likely to be oriented around executing commands and keeping certain tasks running. However, since the way you get a system into a certain state is by executing commands, well, the technical differences aren't that significant. Most of that difference would be in organization of the "UI" layer, rather than under the hood.

Honestly I don't care how harsh this sounds but they should fire their entire marketing department. Or the people who are approving the bullshit we've been seeing for the past what, 2~3 years?

They're either completely clueless, don't care about damaging the brand or are just malicious. And in the process, accordingly to themselves, they aren't even making money just partners and good feels, right?

Normalize GraphQL response data
Very true I was not referring to SOC not reacting it's more things getting misinterpreted when things get escalated to higher ups if org is huge and structure is complex sometimes things get complicated. E.g. a company undergoing an external pen test and some real incident in the same time window using tools that a pen tester would use (e.g metasploit)
It's a complex question. Higher-density areas are more affordable, other things being equal. They're also a lot more desirable and appealing than the lower-density alternative, and this is what can make them "less affordable" to some, while still being quite easily affordable to others. They have inbuilt gentrification potential. But gentrification is a great thing - it directly translates into a better quality of life! And if it spreads sufficiently, to the point that "higher density" is not a rarity anymore, it doesn't even have to mean high rents.
Why is this posted today? It's New Year, a holiday in many countries, and a federal holiday in the US. You're not going to get a lot of posts this way; it's already going much slower than usual. Last year it was moved to January 2nd, if I recall correctly.
I can see how upsetting this is but let’s go on a hyperbole and compare it with Chrome. The fact that we have a say about the future of Firefox is a feature that no other (proprietary) browser has.

NanoVMs | SF, CA | FullTime | Onsite | C Kernel Engineer

We're constantly looking for more qualified full-time on-site kernel engineers. For this particular role it's all C with a smattering of asm.

Linux was obsolete the day it was released almost 30 years ago and if the past 10-15 years of cloud have taught us anything the general purpose operating system is simply not a great fit for our needs anymore. Of course we continue to use it cause we didn't have better options. We're fixing that. In the process we are dealing with some serious security issues that have been left to rot over time.

We're working with very large companies deal with the never ending onslaught of technology and designing from the ground up a whole new reality of operating systems. We don't need to keep doing things the same and the future just won't work without some serious disruption in this space - come join us - it'll be one hell of a ride!

I clicked on Cliff Story randomly (https://unfold.studio/stories/1293) and it reminded me a lot of the themes in a story my 11-year-old nephew made (https://ianb.github.io/Choose-Your-Own-Adventures/The-Bad-Ba...) - making abrupt and poor decisions, the resulting jail time, or getting into fights with other people. I'm guessing it's a way to ideate about impulsive urges.

It’s been twenty years since I last seriously used macOS, but I’ll always have a place in my heart for BBEdit. I still have the BBEdit T-shirt I got when I was in high school, and proudly wear it when I work out. I even have print-outs from back then (remember printing things to read them offline?).

It was an amazing text editor way back then, before I discovered Emacs & when my computer was too slow to run Alpha (and honestly, I don’t think that I really appreciated Alpha at the time). BBEdit was fast, flexible and did everything I could want.

I wonder if they still have my name in their customer database? Maybe my license is still good …

>"Simply being a google product"

which, like all Google products, are constantly phoning home and mining data across all your web behaviors. Recent changes are hostile towards privacy. Worse still, for mobile devices they don't allow add-ons given it will impact mobile ad-revenue, all the while the OS itself is mining user data. Disabling the data-mining is nearly impossible. Google makes tens of billions off this data also.

Firefox, on the other hand, is injecting an text ad to the default tab, but clearly it's not very targeted. It appears they're doing the equivalent of affiliate marketing, where they'll take a commission if they drive a sale. The lack of targeting will mean the effectiveness will be questionable.

Unlike Google, Firefox is also not in the data-hoarding business and this is a feature that's trival to disable. They just screwed up by not disclosing this test to their (privacy concious) users.

Firefox gets a lot of revenue by allowing Google to be the default search engine and they will need to figure out monetization strategies to get away from that model. Standing up their own infrastructure to monetize their users without selling them out to a competitor is a good starting point.
Would that not be one of the "careless and stupid back then" which we're starting to wise up to?

I feel like the common idea that music nowadays is garbage compared to old stuff peaked in the 2000s and is actually on its way out. The internet and streaming services have allowed people to get exposed to any sort of music. There's a lot of great stuff being made these days, and a lot greater variety. For a while things had reached maximum commercialism with incredible money being poured into promoting a small number of manufactured acts but it's very easy to ignore that nowadays.
