Yeah there were a few sources online where it would have been half the price but was out of stock.

I vastly overpaid Amazon. It's worth it to me though, because my approach to cooking is to take as few shortcuts as possible and start from the best, most-basic ingredients I can get my hands on. I tend to stick to Japanese, Korean and Mexican cuisines. Started doing my own fermentation this year with things like sauerkraut, hot sauces, miso...
> Or is the point to just fine them out of existence, without concern for actually recovering the money?

That’s my read. The FTC seems to be hanging the sword of Damocles in a very public way. If this company doesn’t comply, a press release describing how the US government is absolutely wrecking them is probably worth not recovering all the judgement.

Why would you assume that electricians and mechanics don't have any 'high-level training'? Is it just because they didn't get a BS from Stanford?

Tech schools are a thing - and many of them are very good. And apprenticeship has been around for millennia, and is a wonderful way for someone to learn a trade or craft.
They tend to post about a week out on Twitter.
Both of my local grocers, King Soopers and Safeway, have meal kits on gondolas right when you walk into the store, even before the flowers. Since beer just became legal to sell in grocers statewide, they even have suggestions for the beer to drink with your meal kit. They also do delivery now too, online or by phone. I constantly see employees going down isles with those plastic boxes, filling out orders via those globby Amazon-warehouse style scanners. They'll pick out the good stuff too, I've seen a few employees putting produce back on the bins if they find some small defect. Those Safeway employees are also unionized, the pay and benefits are alright for the work.

I've no idea how you could possibly compete with that level of ease, service, and selection. I'd not go long on BlueApron et al. I mean, Munchery just closed out of the blue the other month. They all are on the gallows block.
When talking about web technologies I am astonished by the repeated irrationality. Most JavaScript developers are deathly afraid of the DOM. They will happily sink their careers over it and perform 100x more work to not contend with it and justify the strangeness of that reasoning in really creative irrational ways. It’s bizarrely fascinating. That phobia is further strange considering it’s about a skill that can be learned in 2 hours of active study and mastered in 4.

Then there are people who are equally fearful of JavaScript. Again, they will justify their phobia in all manners of ways at great energy. They will even form an alternate future reality to justify knowingly bad decisions in the present.

Both of the groups are really demonstrating the same phobia with all the same behaviors but just slightly shifting the subject a bit. What’s ironic though is that the people afraid of JavaScript, and thus having little to none experience working with or understanding the DOM, really want access to DOM.

When you get past the irrational fear around these things the motivations of the technologies and their direction becomes something completely different. This is why web technologies are difined in one way and yet people strangely impose their own alternate realities, abstractions, and unfounded projections upon them. It’s also why the standard technologies are slow, intentionally so, to reflect certain things even those things are highly demanded.

I have encountered these phobias enough, even in person, that I am curious to learn more about them and how they arise.
Everything I've heard is that it's incredibly difficult to grow commercially. That said, there's a company in Half Moon Bay that's doing it. I can't say I've tried enough authentic Japanese wasabi to make a reasonable comparison with the locally grown version, but I can say that both are worlds better than the green goop you'll find in almost all Japanese restaurants. I know people who can't handle the spice level of "normal" wasabi but have no problem with the real stuff - there's more flavor there than just "spicy", although it still carries a fair amount of heat. The grated version also has both texture and aromatics that you won't get in wasabi from a tube.
...and your opinion has been already questioned. Anyway, it's great to meet somebody with your attitude, even if online. Only if there were more people like you!
Privacy will continue to be a luxury good, and the price will increase.
Like Vixie said, route and answer 8.8.8.8. He is complaining that he has to do it. He is not saying that there is no solution.

Putting a DNS client in Chrome (I think they removed it but who knows), or Chromecast, or whatever is "evolutionary pressure".

It forces users to evolve the solution to work around it. This is good.

If users are forced to learn to use an RPi for DNS (and we can see they are doing that with Pi-Hole), and eventually another pocket-sized computer with open-source software for routing, that benefits the community of users who want to avoid ads.

If avoiding ads is the goal, then using a pocket-sized computer with a user-installed OS is better than a solution marketed by a commercial third-party, as almost always those third parties rely partially/wholly/directly/indirectly on the ad business.
No, there's also a 16GB SD card with the software preloaded, and a plastic cover.

Basically.
I don't have an issue with consumer reports. I used to browse their material occasionally.

However, most of the time, I spend very little and make few purchases. The ones that are low-value - lets say vegetable peelers and compressed air canisters - I don't need ratings for. The large ones (Appliances, Misc Electronics, Suits, Cars, etc.) I research online anyways.

So if I'm not using their product 95% of the time, their subscription business model doesn't line up with my expected use-case. So I don't use it. I would love to pay for better rating data and don't mind shelling out for information, but I do need to pay for it when I'm consuming it, not in a prophylactic manner.
If you need an autogenerated GraphQL API, look into Prisma (https://www.prisma.io/) or AppSync (https://aws.amazon.com/appsync/).

You can still use Apollo as a client side solution for the above. The client side resolvers Apollo speaks about is for client-side data. This is if you optionally want to use the same patterns on the front end to manage your local state. But it's totally optional. You can use Apollo + Redux or Apollo + setState or Apollo + MobX or Apollo + useReducer or whatever.
It's nice to work with your hands and produce something, but the margins you can earn with your time are going to be an order of magnitude larger with a tech job than any job involving producing physical goods like bakery / coffee shop / brewery, unless you achieve a lot of scale (distributing your product to large chains or similar).
I see no logical reason why being successful as a project implies that investing with a profit motive is the best option for guaranteeing continued success.
No, you cannot, not in an easy way. I've taught many people Node.js/express and they always struggle with all of those copy/pasted configuration bits. Now if I add them, I tell them something along the lines This is just magic, copy/paste it to make your app work. Some day you will understand.

Once you get used to them it's easy, but to get started it's a nightmare. I started with PHP back in the day, and even though it's hated around here the bar to getting started there is amazingly low in a good way.
How will that help? The incompetence of the standards body is the problem at hand.
Blocking with host files requires you to create the file on every device. You don't even have access on some device (smartphone, TVs..)

DNS blocking is configured once for your whole network.

>> Going to the store once a week isn't that much of a hassle, the food quality is higher, and it's cheaper.

Not sure how common my take is, but not only is going to a store not a hassle -- going to a grocery store is an absolute pleasure. It is a timeboxed task with a sense of accomplishment at the end that takes me away from my computer and gives me exercise (I usually walk.) I tend to do 2x a week to break up the task and do it more often because I like it. Shorter cycles also helps with freshness and error correction.
Oof, I have been there on dumb PCI "fixes"!

But my big concern here is, "How do Docker users stay on top of vulnerabilities?" And I worry that for many of them, the answer is that they don't. Or they just update their image when a new version comes out. And the latter answer could actually be a big win for security... provided Docker image maintainers are staying on top of vulnerabilities. Is the Docker infrastructure doing a good job of policing that? Of highlighting images that have known vulnerabilities?

Lots of people are replying that the article doesn't give any details about which vulnerabilities. That's valid, but is Docker giving details about known vulnerabilities?
According to this argument, it seems like you don't even need a warrant canary. If you told your customers you would inform them of a warrant, and the government compelled you not to, under your arguments wouldn't that also be conspiracy to commit fraud?
1) No one treats everyone else's property as well as their own (tragedy of the commons).

2) The fact that you are paid more ensures that society's demand of your kind of labor is met, resulting in a more efficient allocation of resources. If everyone instead was paid the same, there would be less incentive to get better training or to perform undesirable work, resulting in less efficient allocation of resources.
A vehicle twice as heavy per axle is doing 16x the damage. Unless the taxes on delivery vehicles scale like that, a sedan is subsidizing the costs.
For most search queries, identifying the user-preferred language is quite easy though: It's the language the user used for his query.

Of course, Google goes to great lengths to ignore this hint.
Not necessarily.

AFAIK the common case where your logic falls apart is when an attacker takes flight. At that point, it's really hard to argue (under the law of every country I've ever lived in, including the US) that your life is in danger.
Efficient cars cost the city less money.

This is because efficient cars are usually smaller, and cause much less damage to the roads.

It is a good thing for society that they are using Priuses. It makes road maintenance cheaper.

Why should we be trying to lose money, by discouraging behavior that helps the city out? IE, fuel efficient, smaller cars.
How does this account for all the upkeep on the residential roads where a large truck almost never travels. Sure, large trucks may account for the vast majority of wear on roads where they travel, but I imagine the majority of the roads in a city rarely see large trucks, and still need regular upkeep.

Without some sources to back up your claims, I'm not sure if it's accounting for that or not. Can you supply your sources so we can look into exactly what that statistic means?
Speaking as one who was raised by a physician, I cower in horror at the thought of having a treatment plan designed and implemented by a neural network without human intervention.

We've seen that for a number of difficult problems, deep neural networks, given sufficient data and expert trainers, do a good job most of the time and occasionally come to mortifyingly wrong conclusions.

Run a 'sed s/mortifying/mortal/' on that previous sentence and think about it for a minute.

The two major public safety unions in CA, the California Peace Officers Association and the California Correctional Peace Officers Association, collect a combined total of about $100M per year in dues. They are incredibly active and influential in CA politics. The probability of the overturning a policy they support that directly concerns their members, as in the article, is zero.

This isn't entirely true. The point of the manufacturers together agreeing on a standard is to remove some of these perverse incentives; here's how it works in theory:

Without the standards group:

If manufacturer A is confusing, then they can sell more than manufacturers B and C. So in turn manufacturers B and C will be confusing as well in order to keep up. This is bad for consumers and generates ill will against USB in general (globally bad for A B and C)

With the standards group:

Manufacturers A B & C all agree on something non-confusing, and in order to use the USB trademark, they can't deviate from what they agreed upon. USB is now sunshine and rainbows so USB customers are happy in general (globally good for A B & C).

Something has broken down in the system if they make names that are confusing since USB being confusing is bad for everybody, and none of the manufacturers get a leg up on the others if they all use the same confusing language.
Every bit of new construction seems to be mixed use commercial, retail, and housing with large underground parking structures. He's right that its "luxury" condos but its still a lot denser than the traditional two story apartment buildings.
Exactly this! An experienced developer might take configuration and setup for granted.

I also teach sometimes and all this friction to get started just makes it harder to get into web development these days.
And unless we want to have ugly metal gantries everywhere, we are going to need to accept that the Government will need to be able to monitor our car's location at all times... via built-in transmitters also linked to the payment infrastructure.

We will probably also need a way to communicate pricing. All of this will also need to be digital for autonomous vehicles.

We should probably start working on some open standards for it all...

Text readability in specific context was passable on the original so I think this should be pretty good! The problems are going to be more in that it’s not quite a desktop window manager yet. It’s not designed to be a screen replacement. That is coming in the next couple years, but the bumps you’ll experience to make it your environment involve implementing and establishing paradigms that don’t exist yet and are maybe availible as a collection of weird bit rotting tech demos.

That said, you could probably wire it up to terminal and split out movable windows with a tmux wrapper. Impress your friends and strangers while you hack the Gibson, then take it off and use your laptop screen because you’re frustrated.
I don't understand Vixie. I have a Chromecast Ultra. On my Firewall at all, I reject all requests to 8.8.8.8(and .4.4) with a ICMP unreachable. This forces the CC Ultra to use the DHCP allocated DNS Server (a pihole) which works just fine.

I don't understand why he says you have to route and answer 8.8.8.8. You really don't.

If his point is you can't override the built in DNS without some sort of FW hackery though, then yea his point stands.
I guess. Without tresholds the claim can go either way.
When you use something like Apollo + a graphQL backend it makes client-side code considerably easier to deal with. Think of how much front-end code is simply fetching data, storing it locally, and then creating components to render that data. With Apollo, you use declarative graphQL strings to state what data you need to render a view, and then it handles all the fetching/retry/cache/subscription logic for you. You're able to iterate quicker because you have less CRUD code to deal with.

Other benefits are that you don't need to write multiple endpoints to serve condensed responses, since the client declares exactly what data it needs in the request. So a mobile client that only needs a fraction of the data of a web client can get back exactly what it needs, and there's no need for the backend to create separate REST endpoints or params for managing that. It's part of the spec.
That's a long run out. I try to avoid annoying people behind me by doing that.

Interesting and scary research... Maybe link directly to the about page?
of course when talking about storage you don't usually buy the largest capacity available if you are worried about money... same goes with hard-drives... you buy 8TB even if 10TB are available, because they are cheaper by the TB... but that should make 200GB and 512GB sd cards cheaper, at least

> as for Wiktionary, any of the ninety other online dictionary services will do me just as well.

Wiktionary already covers a large number of languages where other online dictionaries have noticeably poorer content, or there may be no other real online dictionary at all. Wiktionary’s entry template puts a lot of emphasis on etymologies, for instance, and these etymologies are often not easy to find on the web (as opposed to dusty print dictionaries one might not have ready access to).

I would take elisp over TypeScript any day. The tooling around TypeScript is hot garbage, debugging async code is a huge time waster, and things that are trivial with dynamic binding turn into major undertakings because of the module system. Also the verbosity and reams of boilerplate.
Amen. Uber and Lyft are adding congestion to our roads and undermining public transportation, all while profiting off public infrastructure and a class of driver “partners” who incur all of the costs for a razor thin upside.

Id like to see the start of a state owned rideshare network with specially zoned drop off, pick up, and lane privileges that Uber and Lyft don’t get access to.
It's network wide. Anyone joining your network and being given the PiHole as its DNS server means it gets the ad blocking benefits.

It also updates the hosts files itself on a regular basis, you don't have to remember to do it as a manual task.

It gives you a nice webgui to show you what devices are accessing what hosts, how often they try to access them (at least, how often they request their DNS name) and has different modes of blocking (vs a hosts file has to return 127.0.0.1)

You're talking about intent, but the parent poster is talking about reasonable belief.

In US courts, the latter is (generally) what matters for self-defense claims. Courts don't expect victims to have perfect knowledge of a situation.

So in a certain sense, US courts recognize that things like armed carjackings should be treated as attempted murders.
There's a solution to this. Reviewers are anonymous to the sellers. Sellers should not be able to link a review to a purchase.

Do you think it's possible that this wasn't a mistake and instead they acted with malicious intentions and only fixed the problem to minimize the negative PR fallout? If not, why not?
You should always run a local caching DNS server on your home network if you care about latency etc.
That way when your iphone requests apple.com and then your laptop requests it 3 minutes later, the dns query time will be sub millisecond, instead of maybe 5-15ms.

will you notice that? No, you will not. But you seem to be concerned about levels of latecy it's impossible to notice anyway, so you need this to get even more (unnoticeable) decreases in latency :)

Then the pihole just queries 1.1.1.1 for you, so your DNS privacy etc is still kept.

It's interesting they put so much work into that because roulette tables have a ~5% house edge, so even a fairly large bias wouldn't cost the house.
> They explain why this makes for a bit fairer dice here.

Well... they explain why the opposite-side numbering convention makes for fairer dice. They don't say anything at all about balanced vertex sums other than "we believe it's important".

Just compare the reasoning:

> If a die is unintentionally oblate (slightly flattened on opposing sides), the flatter regions are more likely to turn up when the die is tossed. If these two opposite numbers were 19 and 20 for example, then the die would on average roll high, since these two numbers would come up too often. Having the two numbers add to 21 avoids any such bias in the average number rolled. For this reason, the opposite-side numbering convention improves fairness.

vs

> Equally important in our opinion is balancing of the vertex sums.

This does not give me confidence that the vertex sums matter.
