Your sarcastic comment is totally unwanted. Nowhere I talked about Privacy, just that its very unlikely of a user to get locked out of accessing all old emails at two major provides at same time. The thread itself is about Google, and the comment I replied to is worried about getting locked out of Emails at Google.

What are protonmail policies for unwanted user? Lockout? Backup?

$50 for you might be a whatever amount, but in few places it is a lot, and not desirable or able to spend this much on email.

By any chance do you work or connected with protonmail? I am connected with neither of all three, but have accounts at all three, just like anybody else.

Spuriously attributing quotes to Orwell is a long standing tradition. As Abraham Lincoln said: "The problem with quotes on the Internet is that it is hard to verify their authenticity".
> And, I don't think you can say "nobody is successfully using ads to determine ad clickers general location with a X mile radius".

Of course. And I'm sure that you can find some people who would get riled up that they incremented a counter in a location-oriented semi-anonymous bucket of clicks. But I think most people are substantially less riled up about that than they would be if Google were actually disclosing their individual locations directly to buyers. It seems like a lot of the anti-Google folks on here equivocate between these two, and I speculate it's because consciously or subconsciously they realize the latter narrative is much more emotionally compelling to a much broader segment of the population. To me, that's deceptive rhetoric.
I mean, you could look up those things and read a few blog posts and then do them. I’m not a lawyer either it’s not that complicated.

You have to do a little research to figure out how to use the subway system or buy a car too. It’s just another system, isn’t this a board full of people who’ve taught themselves how to handle extraordinarily complex rules based systems?

There’s something about legal stuff that makes people freeze up. Go to the courthouse, ask them, sign up for whatever volunteer lawyer help desk program they have (they almost always do) and figure it out. Takes an afternoon or two.

Use Google. Harness the enemy’s powers against them.

In my honest opinion there isn't one. Nothing does everything as good as Gmail does. Some things they might do better but they fall down in other areas so the overall experience isn't as good. And the one thing it does better doesn't make up for the 3 or 4 things it does worse.

It really comes down to how much inconvenience are you willing to put up with to not use Gmail.

Again just my opinion :)
I think it tastes better, though that's subjective obviously. Works better in hot drinks (foams better and seems to be more heat-tolerant; almond milk seems to scorch pretty easily and end up tasting burnt). Plus it tastes vaguely sweet on its own, maybe because some of the starches naturally break down in production, whereas with almond and other plant milks you either end up with something cloying or something overly "healthy" tasting, depending which side of the sweetened/unsweetened dichotomy you end up on.

Nutrient wise, it's definitely lower in protein than dairy milk, but that's true of most plant milks, so it's no worse than almond there (though probably worse than soy, or than some of the newfangled ones made from legumes like Ripple, which is made of yellow split peas). Worth checking the label though if there are other macronutrients you care about.
You can use mkchromecast for that: https://mkchromecast.com/#installation
Also you can go further with it and cast from airplay devices: https://github.com/philippe44/AirConnect

I have airconnect on a raspberrypi so I don't have to keep my laptop on and I can play songs from my iphone that way, just stream to chromecast audio. It's also worth mentioning it works a bit better than mkchromecast but it depends on your wifi.
probably so.

No deal should be needed. The TOS itself is Unity being evil to line its own pockets.

Unity is trying to tell me, as a game developer using their product, where and how I can use the built executables generated from their editor.

I have no interest in Improbable and this has been a major shot across the bow for me.
I don't agree, even as a founder who bootstrapped two companies.

Nowadays, software companies are capital intensive. They don't start in a garage like in the 70s, 80s, or 90s. Are there exceptions? Sure, but they are outliers.

Marketing is one of the components that make your service or product capital intensive. Another is the level of details your product need to be in the market. In the past you were competing in the functionality now you are competing in the UX, multiplatform support, integratuon with other systems, etc.
In a word, yes. Tastes vary, of course, but why not try?
A customer of ours pulls trains on barges from Seattle to Alaska. As well as trucks, mining equipment, school busses, fishing boats, etc. It is pretty cool to see the barges stacked tall, and imagine them pulled 1,500 miles to Alaska. The trains drive onto the barge via tracks and are stored underneath the other cargo.

Namecheap now finally supports TOTP and U2F is on their roadmap. I was close to dropping them before this recent development but it seems like they finally take this seriously
Is this a joke?

> Finding: From 1997 through 2016, medical marketing expanded substantially, and spending increased from $17.7 to $29.9 billion

Adjusted for inflation, that might even constitute a decrease in spending: 2.5% annual marketing spend increase vs, I'm guessing, 3% inflation '97-2016?

> Meaning: There has been marked growth in expenditures on and extent of medical marketing in the United States from 1997 through 2016.

Not that we shouldn't have a good talk about medical marketing, but this isn't the basis for it.
From my experience, there's a massive intangible difference between a co-founder and an early stage employee. Get as far as you can without using equity, so that when you do use equity, you have a clearer sense of what you will get from it. When you want other big-picture decision makers, get co-founders. When you want x, y, and z mostly outcomes, hire employees. If you can't afford employees, could you get further and raise funds first? I've had amazing high equity employees and not so amazing ones. But with a small group of pseudo co-founders, things like firing, raises, pivots, etc. naturally become more political than they might otherwise.

It's cliche but think of this as dating except you're about to adopt a kid. When you start going steady with someone, it's critical to have a boundary between yourself as a parent and the other person as a (perhaps-temporary) parental figure. If one day you find someone who would raise your child even better than you could by yourself, or at least would make you happy and you trust fully in their judgment and values (even if not 100% same as yours), you get married. But you can still raise a great kid as a single parent.
I think Google is aware of this issue and the powers that be clearly are ok with it.
What did you use to automate it? Ansible? Or what. Thanks!

This was my EXACT experience with the google store. And Google Cloud gold level support. And google payments.

Google just doesn't make good products. I am consistently astounded at how SHITTY the google home is. It STILL can't make a to-do list.

The Google store sold me a defective pair of headphones. But the defect was due to a design flaw, so the headphones broke AGAIN after they sent me a new one. I then replaced my phone on warranty. Same headphone defect.

So I was going through about one pair of headphones a month for four months[0]. I kept doing it because I enjoyed wasting google's money and abusing their bureaucracy, but I also REALLY wanted a working pair of headphones. Just a total nightmare. I once lost my tempter at the poor guy on the phone, and his response was: "Don't worry about it. You are handling this way better than I would."

Well, regular Chromecast only has HDMI, so there still is a gap without CC Audio.

Those languages each target one of those platforms only, i.e. Crystal and Rust for a statically compiled binary, Apache Groovy for the JVM, and Elixir for the Erlang runtime.

Why not use a language that targets many platforms? E.g. Kotlin targets the JVM, Android, and Javascript, as well as is natively compiled. Now that's the real future. Better than using, say Groovy, to target the JVM, then rewriting it all when you want it to run on Android.

That was Peter Thiel's conclusion after the Gawker ordeal. The reason why Gawker did what it did was that it was very difficult to succeed at suing them, and to survive while doing so. (Gawker would put the person suing them on an attack)
I hate giving Elon credit, but there is some wisdom in the idea of only using optical Receivers for self driving input.
I am pretty much impressed by the January spike / trend. This is kind of mirroring the growth potential behind these products. Just by a rise in awareness. Somewhat something I believe is slowly developing globally - that people become more and more aware of the stark issues of climate change and the already high quality of the solutions.

I love this news!

So, I think water should also be measured in amount of scarce water. There is no issue when there is enough fresh water supply.

General peripheral knowledge--yes.

Maybe, programming a modern DMA based device running in a full blown OS with userspace, kernel space, an IO MMU, giving you bus IOVA addressing through a VM, with multiple command buffers, SRIOV, etc, while not wildly different isn't the same as doing IO read/writes into a fixed MMIO mapped device region. Doing some basic SPI programming is a start, but one has to understand there are a lot more layers that get added as the systems grows from a AVR level device to a modern server.
Interesting speculation.
>There are a lot of different ethical systems, but almost all of them consider killing people to be evil.

This is too strong a claim.
I haven't tried other diary alternatives but recently tried Oatly and was pleasantly surprised. By itself it tastes remarkably similar to diary milk with oats in, minus the bits!
I generally write stuff in a book, especially when I am not on the computer. When I am on the computer I will often use computer files (I don't use any particular software other than a text editor), sometimes in addition to books. Sometimes even IRC in order that I can get comments.
You are perfectly free to run your own nameserver, nobody has to use it though.
To counter some of the comments here, I absolutely loved the book and went on to recommend it to all my scientist friends.

Likewise (well, other than not really having any "scientist friends"). I loved this book, think Pearl has some amazingly valuable ideas, and found the book relatively accessible even though I'm not a statistician. I won't claim to have understood every detail on the first reading, but I got enough out of it to feel like I'll understand it all after a couple of follow on readings, plus consulting Pearl's other books.

I wish our society had a better understanding of causality—that would raise the level of many important discussions.

Absolutely.
Topics to study should include: Unix IPC, signals and syscalls, filesystem and kernel implementation details, and network/socket programming.

Being able to read and write C programs goes a really long way.

Beej's guides are a good resource. I learned a lot from them.

Guide to network programming:

Guide to Unix IPC:

The Unix Programming Environment (Kernighan & Pike) is also very good.

A good exercise would be to write a simple IRC-like chat server and client in C.
I swapped my smartphone for a $70 brick approximately a year ago and have zero regrets - I highly recommend that anyone curious give it a shot (though I'll note that I'm not 100% convinced yet that doing so is the best long-term move). I've been working to reduce the total parasitic load that I allow on my conscious mind and the impact of removing an always-on computer from my pocket has been palpable. For me, the cost / benefit analysis strongly favors eschewing a smartphone: cognitively I feel more refreshed, "present", and able to focus on tasks for longer without the phone present, financially I've transitioned from purchasing a multi-hundred dollar device every few years and paying ~$800-$1,000 a year for data to paying far less for a device that is very durable and reliable and not paying for data at all. After a year of having no on-the-go access to my email I am happy to say that the hourly mental impulse to check if I've gotten anything important has finally dissipated (it was surprisingly strong and persisted even into the sixth month mark). The price I pay for increased communications friction is negative in the final tabulation: for every new app I miss out on, every email that sits in my inbox a bit longer than it used to, and every text that I answer slowly and without emojis, I find that I am able to actually process information around me more carefully and thoroughly. It's also genuinely shocking to see the smartphone phenomenon from "outside" - with nothing to look at or play with, my attention tends to be on other people around me, and the fact of the matter is that nearly everyone I encounter is only half-present no matter where they are due to having a chunk of their mind constantly devoted to whatever is going on (or might be going on) on their phone's screen. Strange times.
Are the actual scooters worth the effort?
What do you suggest for drinks? I’ve tried months of water only, but it doesn’t taste good/bad at all. I do make my own food, but juices... argh, I’m just so lazy for that because I drink gallons of liquids a week (usually Coke Zero, I might add); I sometimes drink water as well, as to not make it just Zero, but seriously, it’s so boring to clean juice residue and making it takes time. I sometimes instead of plain water I add some drops of lemon, to make it taste different, but it’s still pretty much the same.

I was actually impressed with Soy milk when I tried it. Going to give oat milk a try as well.

It does feel like a movement is happening - perhaps it's the time of year but there does seem to be more coverage of animal-free diets. I do wonder if they'll be a time in the future where eating meat becomes socially unacceptable?

Personally I've really cut down on my meat intake, and it's been easier than I thought. It's the final 20% that's the hardest though!
Sounds like they're just dipping their toes in the water, no public intention to build a RISC-V chip yet (unfortunately).
Can I take a (working) scooter on the street and use the 30 USD kit? After all, it's an item on the street. What legal action can Bird take? Just curious.. Can I take legal action if I throw my stuff around the street and then start taking legal action if someone re-uses it?
I have one connected to my amplifier and speakers — it's the only thing connected, I don't need any other audio source.

I run miniDLNA[1] which shares all my music, and BubbleUPnP[2] on my phone to browse the music and cast it to the Chromecast Audio.

It's also possible with a Python library[3]; I used this for a while as an alarm clock.

About every 2-3 months I have to reboot the Chromecast, but it's otherwise fine. It doesn't do gapless playback, but I think that's partly because miniDLNA is running on an ultra-low-power ARM board, i.e. is slow.

I still use YouCompleteMe and even standard ctags because they fill additional functionality that an LSP can't provide. In a big C++ project you'll have several different configurations that can be built, none of which touch all files. In that case the LSP can't give you completions and diagnostics for a file that isn't built, but YCM can often deal with it by compiling with include paths similar to surrounding files. So this way I can safely edit and browse files of other configurations. Similarly if you're building for different OSes, you have chunks of code behind #ifdef linux/WIN32/osx, so they just never get compiled and the only thing that can index e.g. structs defined within those ifdefs is good old dumb ctags. I strongly feel that the union of these different tools that operate at different levels of integration with the build system results in a much more comprehensive solution for real-world systems than would be possible with just one of them.
Traffic lights were a concern for Y2K... but it turns out that in the real world, traffic lights just need a day-of-week so they continue to work fine.

It's a shame Forth is so tricky to find. I learned Prolog and Lisp in school, but Forth was never even mentioned. It would make an excellent introduction to programming if you ask me.

I like to think what is JSON to Javascript is C to C++ (not capability wise). JSON and Javascript are completely, entirely different things even though JSON is technically a subset of Javascript (every valid JSON sentence is a valid Javascript sentence). C and C++ are extremely different languages -- mostly due to cultural reasons -- even though every valid C program is a valid C++ program (not strictly true, C and C++ diverged slightly, but you got the point). I, for example, write C-ish C++ and compile it with g++ but call it "C" because it's "nothing like C++" and "it's basically C with some extra keywords". I know this comment sounds absurd but C++, especially modern C++, is a very complicated beast with a complex ecosystem and culture attached to it. If you inherit a C program and add one C++ line and compile it with g++, even though it's "technically" C++ now, I really wouldn't call it C++. The way you solve problems in C and C++ are extremely different, and this matters.
I don't think I've encountered any super simple appliance I can plug into my home network and move data onto and then easily give online services I trust access to its data. Ever since I heard about Tim Berners Lee's new project, the Solid POD (Personal Online Datastore), I've been thinking about how to make it friendly enough to people that they'd actually use it in large enough numbers to gain traction. It always seemed like people would have to learn to start paying at least a little money to make privacy work without advertising dollars. I just Googled around for the latest and noticed that the MeWe social network (which emphasizes privacy) which Tim is working with offers a free tier on data but then charges above 8 GB. I wonder if their long game on being sustainable is to just make money on add-ons above the free tier. Here's hoping it catches on...
