So much of what you said is just plain inaccurate. For instance, Trump did not say that Mexican judges are incompetent. A case against him before the election had a Mexican judge presiding over it and he was afraid that the judge wouldn't be objective due to his wall/the perception that he's racist.

That's just one point. Most of the other points you made can be equally refuted or are just ridiculous - "dog whistles," come on. That's code for "they didn't say anything bad but I'm going to interpret bad intentions because I don't like them."

I don't like the guy but I hate the lies and misinformation about him more. Not because they're damaging to Trump but because they're harming our democracy itself.

> The thing is that "comparable opportunities" equates to (perceived) Bay Area salaries which are more or less equated to higher-end FAANG salaries

In my experience, people mostly look to preserve their financial position rather than take a jump up. Just because rent's cheaper somewhere else doesn't mean I want to take a proportionate pay cut. I've watched people turn jobs down flat when offered 50% of their pay in NYC because rent is half of NYC's.

Salary history matters a lot of negotiating power in the future. Salary matters for building up a financial cushion in case this job elsewhere doesn't work out and now I'm somewhere that has a lot fewer options on offer.
Thanks. I am not sure where to find the nutritional info for this then.
There's a free facebook group with hundreds if not thousands of posts with vision improvement stories. No money needed. But vision improvement takes way more effort/time/motivation than the average person can muster.
That's always my technique at stores that try that (aside from CostCo). The nice part is that they really aren't used to people saying that (especially if you say it very pleasantly, as if they had offered you something) and will often stare at you with a "deer in the headlights" look.

The worst that's ever happened was that I once had a Best Buy guard yell at me and start trying to chase me out into the parking lot, but I just ignored him and he eventually gave up and went back. Flaunting fake authority like that makes me very happy for some reason.
To be fair, have you ever had a problem with git that wasn't a pebkac error?
But then the rich would just choose to use their money in a way that only benefits them, while in reality, it might be better for the entire economy if for example more of the money goes to the unemployed.

Another issue that I see is that many people are very uninformed (or wrong) and if we let them choose directly where the money goes, it might be wasted.
In the current system the way it should work (in my opinion) is that people vote based on the issues and values important to them and their elected then move the money based on researching and better understanding how to do it best (since that's the elected officials job, and they have time for that, unlike some of the population).

Perhaps your source is per square kilometer? That seems really low for a suburb. E.g. Bay area cities (not particularly denser) are around 3k people per square kilometer.

I can only second that. Team of 10 with about 30 projects and Azure DevOps was the best that could happen to us. The only problem I saw in here is that the build ui does not automatically update sometimes. Another thing that annoyes me is that the tasks and stories do not update in realtime when you work on them from multiple machines.

> In the real world you won't have the same service time for both cases since you need to add in walking from the global queue to the individual registers.

In all single-queue systems I've seen, this is solved by the cashier pressing the "register free" button before being finished with the previous customers.

> You will end up with increased confusion from customers who always have to be on the lookout for next open spot

I find it, and I find it pretty clearly, for the opposite to be true. In single-queue system, I can literally sleep-walk and read books/browse social media the entire queue up until the point I reach the front end, where I only need to pay attention to the sign telling me to which register to go. With multiple queues, I feel the need to pay attention to whether or not another register is opening, or whether or not one of the customers in front of me has high handling time risk - so that I can switch queues early on.
Not true, as there was more to neighbourhood society than stay at home mums. When I grew up in the 70s, in a major city, and there were many more stay at home mums in one earner, two parent households, for sure. But...

The local shopkeepers and retired would keep an eye on the local kids too. If anything we'd be more likely to be pulled up and ticked off by the old lady doing her gardening or the old fella taking the dog for a walk than the local mums. The mums were often busy with the youngest of the family, cooking, and other jobs keeping them inside. Not all had toddlers of course.

The local shopkeepers - newsagent, butcher, baker all knew our mums as they were in every week so if we pushed too far it was certain to get back home. Everyone seemed to know everyone else. A non-automated surveillance state. :)

So what did we kids do? Went and played on the demolished old factory site, along the canal, or on the disused railway station and line. No one got to keep an eye on anyone there.

The situation of women having to work is just as repressive of women's rights as not allowed. I'm sure there's a lot of women, and some men, who would stay home with the children whilst young if it were possible. The expectation now is they have to juggle both.
Wrong. Only if the system failed to identify a root, which is a grave developers mistake, but in the general case boehm-gc does not generate any leaks.

Sure, but then you might not be the ideal target audience since you're already sold on the concept
Screening at a theater is a required step before a film can be considered for certain prestigious industry awards, qualify for certain production tax incentives or fulfill cast/crew contractual requirements. There exist theaters the sole purpose of which are to fulfill that specific function (they generally screen low budget indie films each for a day or so-- it is not usual for the size of the audience to be zero).

Personally I don't really disagree with you; it would be great if good films were available on Amazon, Netflix, etc sooner.
Lisps in fact do textual inclusion. In ANSI Common Lisp, when you (load "foo.lisp"), and foo.lisp isn't a compiled file, it gets read and processed as text.

http://clhs.lisp.se/Body/f_load.htm

The symbols in the compiled file get read in the current package. The <star>package<star> variable is dynamically rebound, over the lifetime of the load, to its existing value, so that if the file happens to change it, that effect is undone when the load finishes.

The loaded file source can arrange for its bulk to be read in its own namespace, or it can be processed in the parent namespace, which is the best of both worlds.

When a file is compiled, then it's no longer textual inclusion: best of both worlds again.

This is all so reasonably designed that I copied the salient aspects of things like load and compile-file and all that jazz nearly as is into TXR Lisp, which isn't an ANSI CL implementation and free to do anything differently.
Compared to what? I don't think opinions on Scrum can be meaningful in the absence of a preferred alternative.

Having a continuously working artifact that changes incrementally according to user feedback every couple weeks is probably a better idea than going from months of documents to months of code to months of tests to your first demo more than year later.

But within the basic paradigm, methodology is mostly a way of describing what you were going to do anyway.
They're talking about DJ mixers in the article ya silly :)
Depends on the implementation. In Poland, in all the stores I've seen employing single queue for multiple registers, the board is controlled by cashiers - there's a button at the register that the cashier can press when they're ready for the next customer, and the board always displays the number of the register that signaled readiness most recently.
We have to get into the mindset that police reports are fundamentally untrustworthy sources of information.

We have enough evidence accumulated over the years to make it abundantly clear that police reports are primarily about constructing a narrative that absolves police of culpability and secondarily about describing the true nature of an event.

Police reports read individually all sound individually reasonable but read as a collective describe a world that is fantastical. For example, the number of young black men who were "reaching towards their waistbands" at the moment they get shot even though they were carrying no weapons simply beggars any rational explanation. Similarly, "put his hands back down to his waist" is another police magic phrase that is conveniently unfalsifiable and also absolves the shooting officer of any liability.

Dense means a strained infrastructure, congestion of daily life, and -not the least- makes it neigh impossible for average Joe to own some real estate. The last point is a severe factor for gentrification IMO.

Now the countryside on the other hand is, at least here, partially empty. Population shrinks and villages collapse. The elderly live in deserted ghost towns. Existing infrastructure cannot maintained. This is not wild nature out there but rather a dystopia.

Yes, it absolutely is. It's not even terribly uncommon at rock shows.

Source: I'm a stagehand. I can show you a pay stub from a couple months ago when I worked 20 hours in one day. We were the band's first stop on the tour, so the load-in started at 4am, and the load-out finished at 3am. I had 3 hours off during the show itself, though some people got to work straight through.

I couldn't do it every day, of course, but I'd gladly do it a couple times a week. It was a tremendous experience, and one of my all time favorite days at work.
I would think this doesn't matter for most of the things. Meat cuts maybe, but otherwise, the "best before" dates always seem tuned to maximize waste of perfectly good items, and with on-line shopping at least you won't end up participating in the silly game of "I won't buy anything that looks more than one sigma away from perfection".

Here's the new code:

x3.Sub(x3, beta8)
if x3.Sign() == -1 {
x3.Add(x3, curve.P)
}
x3.Mod(x3, curve.P)

I don't understand it why it's all necessary. This is shorter and seems to do the exact same thing:

beta8.Mod(beta8, curve.P)
x3.Sub(x3, beta8)
x3.Mod(x3, curve.P)

Also, beta8 is never used after this code. So this should do the same thing as well:

x3.Sub(x3, beta8)
x3.Mod(x3, curve.P)

Self-checkout situation is weird. Since there are no impulse-buying shelves in the checkout area, the store doesn't really benefit from people hanging around the machines.

The dossier which BuzzFeed did not create themselves? I largely skipped news coverage of this besides vaguely knowing of its existence, but AIUI BuzzFeed's rationale is that it was newsworthy (being as it was a document that was circulating at the highest levels of the US government and media).

Incidentally, it seems that at least parts of the dossier have now been corroborated, and nothing has been disproven. There's still large parts of it that are in question of course, but I fail to see how it's been "discredited", it's merely been criticized.

Feel free to argue that BuzzFeed was incorrect in releasing a dossier full of raw intelligence before it had been corroborated. That's certainly something one can argue, and many people would agree (but not everybody). But that's not the argument you're making.
The CIA discloses sets of documents from time to time as do other government agencies. The CIA recently (past few years) released a huge collection of PDFs regarding their investigation into psychic phenomenon. I only read a few documents at random of these (bizarrely the CIA seemed or seems to have some success with psychics) but I'd be interested if someone could synthesize them into something meaningful or explain exactly what the CIA was doing, to what extent they believe in psychics, and what evidence they really have.

It's not so much the programs as the analysts who use them (and confirm the outputs) I think.

I once had the pleasure of watching one use nothing but twitter posts to map out all the gang territories of Chicago. While he was at it, he found evidence in a murder case and found a picture someone posted of themselves holding an RPG in the city. If I remember correctly, he'd put all of this together in 3 days.

Of course, he was independent and so had to rely on the publicly available twitter searches, where the expectation is that tweets are public. The good - and terrible - things that could be done with access to what people expect to be private is a far more challenging prospect to justify.

And, I think that is a debate worth having. However, it is certainly a forgone conclusion that the programs can and do contribute to stopping bad actors.
