I was ready to agree with you, but the fact that opinion quotes "lawyer dog" makes me question what the judge actually thinks (or is claiming to think). Clearly it should be "lawyer, dog," instead of "lawyer dog". The judge does seem to be quoting the transcript, however, which leads us to the point of the article.
Interesting; have you tried different soy milks? Some use seaweed extract which might give such an aftertaste (though I've never noticed).

Milk is subsidised in many markets, either directly or indirectly; but the demand side makes a big difference too. Also, things are often priced to what people will pay...
I agree actually, but I think there could be more emphasis on how to improve and refine one’s insights too so people get better at it vs leaving it up to chance as they get older.
Really? To me, it was the main selling point.

I also like rice-soy milk, it doesn't have the strange after tastes of soy milk, but it's just so thin, hehe.

My wife taught the kids at primary school how to use PowerPoint. After they were given a camera to take some pictures around the school, some of them randomly figured out they could make stop motion animations. I was blown away.

Six year old kids can do amazing things, as long as their environment doesn't railroad them down boring paths.

I tried finding data on insurance payout/refusal rate when I was considering switching to a cheaper but lesser known car insurance company. It doesn't seem to exist. So much for consumer choice.
At least it influenced async/await, TPL, .NET Native, Span<>, local refs, ref structs, blittable structs, and few other C# 7.x and 8.0 features.

Reading between the lines of some Joe Duffy posts, I think Midori was a victim of rise to power from WinDev after that whole Longhorn/Vista history, only to end with UWP slowly getting back all the .NET features that they decided to throw away on the initial version of WinRT.

Apparently post .NET Core 3.0 there will be some changes happening to .NET Native. It was briefly mentioned at Connect 2018, but they didn't wanted to precise what exactly.

American citizens rely on the government and the press to determine if the election in a foreign country were legitimate. They do not speak the language in the country and do not have cultural ties to this country.

Do you think that the average American can accurately asses who is the proper president of Venezuela using only the word of the government and the press?

We know the current administration is packed with ideologues; many of whom are veterans of the Latin American "Dirty Wars" of the 1980s. I don't think we can trust the government on this one.

The "click bait" article, which is actually well cited, makes the case that the press is almost always in favor of regime-change in Latin America.

So I will ask again, do you think that US Americans are knowledgeable enough about Latin America to know what is best for Latin America?

Excellent comment, thanks for sharing. One ought to really think about why tests are needed and what value they add, and not just simply follow some random (thoughtful) article on the internet.
Like living on debt: we are riding high, until it's time to pay up.

Why is this so difficult for people to grasp? The consequence of cheap smartphones in every American pocket, vehicles in every Chinese and Indian suburban driveways, meat in every brazilian meal, etc, will be the destruction of vast resource banks accumulated over millions of years. Once those resources are extracted and converted into wealth, there will be very little left to maintain our lifestyles.

Nitpick: the idea that Einstein struggled with school-level mathematics is a myth[1]. I would be very surprised if he ever had to look up the procedure for long division.

Probably exponential. The programmer with 10 years of experience doesn't see twice as far into a problem as someone with 5 years, but more like 4 or 10 or 100 times as far.

The reason why is pretty straightforward but I don't hear it talked about much. Any human mind is pretty good at solving a problem, and two heads are better than one. But the bottleneck is the basic communication between people.

So the more contextual background (experience) one has in a problem, the faster one is able to explore the problem space and iterate before he or she begins writing the solution in the real world. That's not going to be replaced by Agile or any other workflow in the foreseeable future.

I saw this firsthand from my supervisor when I had a 1 year contract at hp in my mid 20s (he was in his 40s). I was used to dealing with C++, compilers, some scripting with PHP and Python, that sort of thing.

It took me about a day to complete a ticket like writing a method to, say, load some data and show it on the screen in C++ or HTML. Meanwhile he was swizzling data in spreadsheets, piping it around the shell and doing deep analysis on it in large single passes in a functional manner with the vector and matrix processing techniques of MATLAB. He'd go from unstructured data to a report in an hour or two. Stuff that would take me days, weeks, or not even be feasible with the techniques that I was used to.

I look back on that year as being as important to my education as all the years before that and college combined. My only regret is that I see so far now that it almost hurts to write the code where the money is. A deep reservoir of discipline and frankly stamina are needed to protect the mind from being drug down by the antipatterns surrounding us.

Indeed there are likely many good reasons for making the url bar become a search bar under certain circumstances
(I would bet the money google pays mozilla for these kinds defaults was actually touted as 'make things better for the users' )

and it certainly can make things better in some ways, and likely for a majority of people.

I for one however was appalled the first time I found not typing my url properly sent that data to google to find a suitable alternative.

(also disturbed when I see cell phone carrier give me a "you may be looking this-and-that list of links when a 404 or similar is detected - helpful maybe, doing it for the monetization? probably. Stealing privacy at the same time? Maybe.

Providing a curated version of available resources? Yes.
That is often censoring more and more these days. Google does not provide the internet options to end users that it did 7 years ago.

I have seen people go to the url bar type "google" and hit enter - which on many browsers default searches google for google.

Whatever the reasoning for these issues, the result seems to be that most people think they need to use google to get to parts of the internet and don't know any other way.
This is certainly the case when it comes to startup time (an important thing in a scripting language). On my linux system, python2 starts in about 10ms, python3 takes 20-25 ms.

One thing to consider is that CPython isn't slow because of the language it's written in, but because of optimizations it isn't doing (namely JIT, I think). Rust can't do the same things any faster than C can, and an early implementation of Python in Rust isn't likely to be much faster than an early implementation in C. Rust has the potential to make certain classes of optimization easier, eventually.
If you can't/won't drink animal milk, try Ripple. It's by a significant margin the best facsimile thus far, and they even make a heavy-cream version.
I didn't say they were equivalent, just that for those who have only worked in large companies, there are some weeds in that nice green grass they might have been admiring.

Many of the hilly areas in the Eastern US are plains that
have been dissected by water and ice. Where I live in
upstate NY, the hilltops are all around 2000 feet and are
flanked by valleys such that at best a hilltop has a line of
site for the adjacent valleys.

Last summer I found I could get about 3Mbps down from an AT&T tower that was two valleys away that was using 700 Mhz spectrum -- with a directional antenna.

In some of the more rural areas, the hilltops are roadless so any attempt to put in wireless infrastructure isn't just a matter of running wires for power and data, but actually building roads.
If you are a Google employee and you don't care about the executive visions, you are a living proof that Google is made of people who don't even understand what they are working for, beside having a good salary imo.

When you work for a corporation, you are supposed to embrace (and consent to) the company's goal, which is defined by the top level.

Having a search "10% faster every year" looks like a narrow-minded KPI without awarness of a greater purpose.

I think an issue I have with it is if I want to move the configuration to another place, the only way I can do it is via a symlink. If applications used the variables above, you would be able to easily organize things differently if you choose to.

This would also allow you to test if something there is causing issues or if you wanted to format and reset things. Just delete that directory or set the variable to another path.

I don’t set ls to ls -a, but sometimes I create hidden folders and files on ~/ so it’s not distracting. Scanning through a lot of things because everything is dumped there is a mess.

I'd love to see the data that backs that claim up. A link to the SSD would be a start. Then start pulling the power out on that thing, even when the filesystem is read-only.

That doesn't mean the meaning has to be precise or truthful. Poetry, metaphors, marketing, implication, white lies - they all rely on meaning being multifaceted, and bringing things to mind without actually saying them explicitly.
> usually colored artificially

I've shopped extensively for plant-based milks on three continents in countries that represent nearly half of the world's population. I can provably claim that they are not "usually" colored artificially in even a generous use of "usual." This has nothing to do with knowing the person who wrote the comment.
>* It doesn't sit well in your lap. So if you don't have a table and you want to type that's annoying

I'm not sure why there isn't a better detachable keyboard/tablet system out there. One of the main reasons I still travel with a tablet and a laptop (even if it's only a small Chromebook) is that the laptop is so much more ergonomic to just grab and stick on my lap which I often even do in, say, a hotel room even if there's a table available.

SNA? It's super fantastic fun. Honest.

I worked for an egovernment company several years ago. A state (county?) agency built a service with us, and wouldn't expose the actual database to us, just an SNA supporting interface. We were essentially scraping the data. Messy, unsanitised data. I really didn't envy the developer who looked after that particular application.

Surely you mean you lose a lot trying to fit your system in 4MiB of flash, seeing as the stock images will flash to any 8MiB device with plenty of space left for configuration and the odd extra package or seven.

My grandmother has a SiteCom WLR-4000 (aka SiteCom WL-351, aka EnGenius ESR9850) and that has a 4MiB flash chip; building OpenWRT for it is a pain, but I can still get a flashable image that does everything I need it to do, including the stock web interface (LuCI), with 100k left for persistent configuration data.

It even has WireGuard (kmod-wireguard, luci-app-wireguard, luci-proto-wireguard) on it for a bridge to my router at my home.

When it breaks, or if I ever upgrade my WNDR3800, I'll give that to her. But for the time being it's still perfectly serviceable.

I have lactose intolerance, I am allergic to tree nuts, have an intolerance to legumes, and have yet to find a certified gluten-free coconut milk. Let me know.
They can be wrong though since no evidence was presented for the “usually coloured” claim. To prove no plant milk uses colouring is neigh impossible but you could easily show a couple of example if it is that common to have colouring in them.
One thing to keep in mind is that I've had the blog for about three years; I didn't add all the bells and whistles right out of the gate. The validation checks and build features have grown over time as I've discovered errors or pain points from doing things manually (e.g. breaking the site on mobile, breaking links without realizing it).
Kids Learning the New Way?
Thank you. I respect why this rule exists and understand how my comment would contribute to a less productive discussion. I have edited it out.
Let us say you start at 20 and end at 50, you only have 6 'startup adventure' chances that can work their way through.

If each have a %1 chance of success, it's very likely that the 6 adventure person wouldn't have much to show at the end of it.

Ending up an equivalent of mr. bullet ball is horrifying: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=leHwNiXgnh0

Because of survivorship bias, you usually never hear about these people.

Many people also try only 1 or 2 adventures, and if unsuccessful go into normal employment. But you jump off the 'potential exponentiation train' that sama describes by doing that, and you've lost out on 5-10 years of potential compound savings growth, which for many who can work at FANG instead means a million or two.

You also get to learn a lot and do fun stuff at FAANG employers too.
Hm, I have a mixed opinion here.

The AWS Associate certs are similar to what you describe, particularly the "Solutions Architect" which is IMO common sense for a systems admin. The "Developer" one, though, requires memorizing some trivia around APIs and limits (eg., SQS queue sizes and stuff like that).

However, the AWS Professional certs are said to be MUCH harder, and while multiple choice, require reading a lot of scenario information quickly, and then selecting more than one answer (sometimes not being told how many answers). I haven't taken it but I expect to take the DevOps Professional exam at some point. I could be wrong, but everything I've seen so far, including sample questions, suggests it requires a fair bit of hands-on experience.

However, where everything I said becomes false is around the culture of answer dumps. I'm pretty sure there are dumps sold out there for cheaters to purchase. It's a pretty silly thing to do, especially because you'll be fired if you demonstrate incompetence in the field, but it does undermine the multiple choice test mechanism for certifications.
An instruction to insert into a queue on another core would be a great thing. The T3E had it, InfiniPath / OmniPath has it between boxes, and I've heard of a research project that did it on a modern cpu.
