Do you have catchall directly on the second level domain (@mydomain.com) or do you only catchall a specific subdomain (@mail.mydomain.com)? I'd expect a very big difference in the volume of blue sky spam between those two. If GP sbov has the catchall directly on mydomain.com, then restricting the value space to *.r will make a meaningful difference.

Having the "validating substring" in front of the @ will actually make it easier when you have to use the email address in vocal communication: many humans are unaccustomed to encountering more than one dot after the at.
Our use cases were on very well built websites and platforms. Just to give you an example:

- Redirects: We have several clients in the tech industry who host their docs and pages on Github pages. Github pages doesn't support 301s. This allowed us to both create 301s correctly and have a more manageable 301 platform for the non-development team.

- A/B testing through ghosting: A very large e-commerce client of ours wanted to run A/B test by ghosting (not to change URL) and slow roll out of the new platform. Through this they could chose which URL's were on the new platform and which ones on the old one and slowly rolled it all out.

In the future you will also be able to create pipelines so that there is a better management and audit process for bigger firms with security protocols around.

So, there are more benefits to this than just "When it's not practical to make the changes at the origin server". Infact if you are just "patching" then it's trouble.

In many ways, I think it's possible to apply some of the good answers here to any "how many X have you been to" question.
As for 1, I think it wouldn't be the fault of the drivers. They pay for using the roads. If the tax system isn't distributing it properly, how is it their fault? You could argue they don't pay enough, but there is no info about amounts they pay in the article.

As for 2, i was assuming there are specific taxes for cars, or at least for petrol. That's the case in my country, don't know how it works in the US.

I have two tips to share:

1) Learn some accounting first. I see a ton of truly weird debates about economics and taxes that are based completely false ideas of basic accounting concepts.

2) If you use DEGIRO as a broker, make sure you understand the tax implications of their cash handling. They keep customer "cash" in a money market fund, not in a bank account. This is especially relevant if you hold foreign currency in your account. It's also relevant if the amount of disposals in each tax year has consequences for your tax return (such as the £45000 threshold for submitting a CGT return in the UK).
I'm not saying travelling is terrible, or teaches you nothing I'm saying that if someone goes to a foreign country for a long time and it's not as a byproduct (as in they have a career NOT related to travelling, picking a career specifically to travel doesn't count) of their work, then what it statistically indicates about them is that (privilege + propensity to try and socially signal) is greater than some number, but a lot of people seem to take it purely as "virtue".
What proportion of linguists with an interest in semantics regard "semantic primes" as a useful concept? The Wikipedia articles don't seem to have a "Criticism" section, which isn't a good sign.

It looks interesting, certainly, but rather arbitrary. There are several pairs of opposites, which in a minimal language could be handled with the concept of "opposite", and I have no idea how you'd express some fundamental concepts of human experience such as hunger, cold, pain or surprise, while "live, die" do not seem to me to be such fundamental concepts: they seem more like concepts that need to be defined, for example by a philosopher or medical specialist, rather than experienced directly.
Interestingly, a lack of time brought me to a different conclusion, and I'm certain this is the reason why "uncreative" and "unfun" microtransaction-heavy mobile games are still popular (the game in question is a mobile game). Note that I'm not defending microtransactions themselves, but the low-immersion simple and grindy mobile games that typically implement a microtransaction monetization model.

Conventional games require a certain commitment of immersion and structured time. But when I have the energy to immerse myself in something and the available structured time, there are certainly more important or interesting things I would rather pursue than a traditional game.

This is where mobile games come in. If I'm in an uncomfortable place when I'm prevented from or unable to do anything interesting, such as in public transport, it is comparatively pleasurable to grind a bit on these games. And there are quite a number of these slivers of time in my everyday routine. Mobile games are typically designed so that they are near-frictionless to hop in and do something without a heavy context switch. They fill an entertainment niche for me, and probably many others, that conventional games cannot provide. Previously, light games like Minesweeper or Solitaire filled this niche, but mobile games are of superior value since they offer a semblance of progression and community. Of course, among microtransaction-heavy games there are those that are more frustrating and exploitative. What I'm primarily playing is the game in question in the article, Dragalia Lost (DL), and I've had a pretty positive experience in the free-to-play and dolphin-friendliness monetization model of the game. Monetary purchases are typically priced out of the range of people who have little discretionary spending, and spending more money gives diminishing returns. It might be troublesome for someone with poor control, but for me I get as much of a kick calculating expected values of their different virtual goods on sale (and end up not buying them anyway) as playing the game itself.
Is there a program, free or otherwise, that lets you to do various algebraic manipulations, like:

- complete the square

- factorise something out

- expand something out

- etc

Doing that stuff by hand can get tedious.

I find that Sympy's simplify() often doesn't do what I want. WolframAlpha often understands what I want better. It seems like it would need non-trivial work on the UI front.
I have special insight into what the poster was in favour of. He thought that the prosecutor has a better idea than the rest of us, spent some time thinking about it, and has probably made a good decision. As smilekzs notes it is unlikely that the driver was operating everything correctly.

You may note he explicitly said "the government can still regulate for high safety standards [independently of the actions of the prosecutor]".
Sorry, but this is Kickstarter-mockup-level stupid. Those are done by oblivious people (usually just games) or with malicious intents (most of the stuff you find on kickstarter). This is definitely the second one. The sad thing is, it might not make a bad investment as it can pull in much more cash before failing.

You could argue if roads should be paid for by the government, and I would be sympathetic to it. But you could at least make a case that roads benefit everyone (even people who don't drive buy the goods that trucks deliver via roads), and that it would be too impractical to privatize all roads. In any case, it would be a different discussion from "rich people are ruining the health of our kids". That's what I criticize about the article - the spin. Personally I actually hate cars and think they are given too much space in modern society.

Not collecting property taxes for roads would be just another way of the government paying for the roads.

For me, copyleft licenses like the AGPL solve this issue.

I want to share my hobby projects with others sharing my interests. I want to provide everyone with tools that make the world a little bit better. I want to know others benefit from something I've created. I'm not sure I could (or even want to?) get paid for this.

But I don't want to be exploited. I don't like the idea of unethical companies essentially treating me as free labour.

Copyleft licenses make sure that just as companies benefit from my contributions for "free", I and the rest of the community benefit from their contributions right back. To me, choosing a license like the MIT is just foolishly playing into the hands of the callous giants.
It depends on the game I guess. I'm also an old-timer (39yo, started on C64), but there are some in-app purchase games that I like(d).

Team Fortress 2 was one of them. Even if you didn't pay, it was still fun and free. In the end, I did pay for a few things, so the business model seemed to work.

Now I'm hooked on Crossout, which is also free to play. Basically you can grind your way through it, or speed up the process by buying packages. The packages are extremely expensive though.

When you hear microtransactions, you (and I) immediately think of those nasty Facebook games, or annoying mobile games. EA pulling some nasty tricks is also part of that (Pay extra to play Darth Vader).

But there are games out there that are able to pull it off decently.

The real problem is that the original model was simpler: Pay X, you get the game.

Now the model is more complex, and you never know what you are going to get: Pay X, and maybe the game will be fun up to a certain point, where you have to pay again. But then again maybe not. You will find out once you sunk in a lot of money already.

So in the end, you will never know how much the experience will cost, and that is the real issue.

I think the argument that they should pay extra taxes for that specific road is very strange. I think in generally they pay fuel tax and maybe something on cars (don't know the US system), and in theory that should pay for the roads and other externalities. It could just be distributed so that places with more pollution get more money.

Of course it's possible they don't pay enough, but that has nothing to do with that particular school.

I used to be convinced that I knew more about nutrition science than doctors do.

Then I found that my total cholesterol was v high (7.5 mmol/L). I got scared and followed my doctor's dietary advice (less saturated fat, basically), and it dropped significantly (to 5.7, still higher than recommended levels)

That's when I realised that the likelihood that I can come up with some health strategy for myself that is better "following the advice of professionals" is extremely low

> This unexplained part is often assumed to be (largely) due to discrimination

This is literally the part that is controversial, and you're asserting it as a given. Controlling for almost any confounding variable so far has reduced the wage gap, the majority of which was/is often put forward as primarily having been the consequence of discrimination to begin with.

There are things that are also simply very difficult to control for, but are certainly at play. Are you sure that productivity is being measured outside of hours worked? Aggressiveness in salary negotiation? Actual hours worked vs. full-time time presumption as all members being 40 hour week? I often see one study attempt to control for one factor and fail on another. Cartoonish discrimination strikes me personally as among the least likely defacto explanations for the remaining gap.
I find 100% vacation leaves me wanting to work after a week or two, and 100% work leaves me wanting travel after a few months.

I think it would be ideal to work a flexible job where it's possible to live and work remotely for several months at a time, while discovering that place slowly. In this way you get more of the day-to-day life experience, and you are able to "absorb" the place/culture at your own pace, getting to know it beyond a superficial level. Basically, you just try to live a "normal" life there, albeit with more frequent evenings out, weekend trips, etc.

This is of course, part of the appeal of digital nomadism, but I consider that to be a much more extreme version of what I mean.

You can do a lot with a SSN in Finland. The first 6 digits are your date of birth followed by 4 random characters. If I had your SSN (and address) I could:

- Phone up the tax office and find out about all your finances, and make adjustments to your tax percentages and affairs.

- Phone your medical provider, and very possibly socially engineer them into revealing medial information. I could book an appointment with your doctor for example and impersonate you on the phone appointment.

- Call all your utility providers and cancel contract without you knowing about it.

- I highly suspect I could call your phone provider and take over your phone number, and in some cases use this to take over your email.

Whilst SSN should not be treated as a non-secret, the reality is that it is a secret and is often the only line of defense when dealing with companies.

> 2. We develop FSD less carefully. 100,000 lives are lost during FSD development due to suboptimal performance before it is perfected. Five million lives are lost due to human drivers by the time FSD sees 100% adoption.

How can you know the future in this case, I would not believe Tesla/Uber (the others) predictions , "trust us, let us kill 1 million people in the next 10 years but after that the number will go down to 100, trust us, we software developers are very reliable at predicting things and our mathematical skill are so great we can be sure even when we use NN that are unpredictable. And if we fail then the next startup will appear, promise the same thing and you have no choice then to give them also a check for 1 million lives to not discriminate between startups.
I doubt your assessment of the literature. Since we do not seem to agree on this, I would defer to the opinion of specialists in this case. An independent panel of economists would thus have to settle the issue.

But your other argumentation is quite interesting. Do you also hold that 0 physicist ever worked on the theory of phlogiston? Or on ether? Neither of those to exist. Because your argumentation would also imply that. I would reject that suggestion. So even if I were to grant that this problem does not exist, which I do not, I would disagree with the conclusion of your post.
I bet this heavily depends on what you consider an accurate definition.
My go-to for these things is wolframalpha.com, mainly for ease of access, and the natural language interface means I don't have to remember any syntax.

An unnamed source?

Pray tell, what is the line between creating a dossier and conducting an investigation? When does a collection of evidence of a given suspects involvement (or non-involvement) become a dossier?

Although I don't believe it's relevant to this case, the unnamed source is wrong. The DHS absolutely is an intelligence agency. It even has an office (DHS Office of Intelligence and Analysis) dedicated to synthesizing and disseminating the intelligence it collects. Intelligence collected by CBP is part of that mandate.

then lost it by actions of the Obama administration

I thought that while the FCC under Obama did consider lifting NN, the Obama administration and the FCC under Obama ended up coming down strongly on the side of NN. Are you arguing that if the FCC hadn't looked into the possibility of dropping NN under Obama then the Trump administration never would have gotten the idea to follow through on it?

But you are right that it was president Bush and a Republican FCC chair that first adopted the principle of NN.

Hello neighbor.
I followed doctors’ advice for my asthma blindly for years (since age 0, practically, without question) and basically felt horrible most of the time - was basically unable to finish a 2km run until age 20.

Then I woke up one day with the feeling that this can’t be right; started experimenting, and within a couple of months got to 5k, and within less than a year to 15k, feeling much better all the time and with every objective measurement improved.

That’s when I realized I should look into things and not just trust “advice of professionals” most of whom follow others quite blindly, and whose incentives are very different than mine (in my case, their incentive that guided me for 20 years is to minimize their legal risk - it was not to improve my health).

I agree it is important to know the bounds of knowledge - both yours and the professionals - and also to realize the incentives.

Not really. It's been proved that if your unsafe foundations are correct and don't break the rules (i.e. their precondition is correct), then anything safe built on top of that is also correct.

Sure you could rely on a C/C++ library that causes problems, but then again you can either:

A) fix that library

B) replace that part with Rust or even stricter language.

Since there's no need to keep the aircraft small while it's in the air, my ideal personal flight solution would be a combination of ducted fans for safe vertical takeoff and landing, and large wings that unfold or inflate in flight for much higher efficiency / gliding.

Edit: apparently there's a ton of engineering problems with both ducted fans (stability) and folding wings (unfolding in flight is tricky). No idea if this approach is feasible.
