I'm sorry about your friends. My dad has lost at least one, been hit no fewer than 5 times (none his fault), and gone down one other time (lowsided at Deal's Gap). Miraculously he is still alive. This post probably makes him sound much more reckless than he really is. He is the most cautious person I know, probably due to these experiences.
What do you mean "if it becomes..."? It is a buyer-beware trap. There is no incentive for hosts to self-police themselves.
I love Kirkland branded stuff. The best thing you have to try is their Kirkland branded hard liquor particularly the vodka. Affordable and smooth! Their wine is good to me, but most wine connoisseur disagree.
And are they any better now? If you looked up the things I mentioned in my earlier comment, you know that UK has firearms available to civilians that aren't particularly less lethal than what the Christchurch terrorist used. They haven't been used in a similar way yet for the same reason why New Zealand didn't have any problems for over 20 years before this - because these events are so rare in general.

OTOH, looking at New Zealand's eligibility laws, one thing that stands out to me is the lack of a mandatory mental health exam. So it's like US in that regard - only already-diagnosed mental health issues can block ownership.
Imagine someone with an obvious physical disability. Like being in a wheelchair. They can't really hide that, and we (hopefully) make accommodations for them. People are generally pretty great if you know the accommodations necessary. And if they hit you with their wheelchair by accident, you probably will feel bad for getting in their way instead of reporting them to HR for workplace violence.

So I imagine if you have a hidden disability, if you need accommodation, it's in your best interest for people to know that, so they can accommodate you. I can understand hiding it in the outside world because you never know how people will react, but at the workplace, people will figure it out, and if they treat you poorly because of it, then they get the boot, so it's probably a win all around to make it known.
As far as I know, "full stack" just refers to being able to do both front end and back end work, where back end work consists of core website code, database administration, and devops. Full stack is a really broad classification that is defined with other really broad classifications.
The perceived validity of your opinions does not automatically mean they're welcome in unrelated places
ASD isn't anything new, you're comments act like this is something we haven't ever had to face before. Turns out a lot of developers have some form of ASD, it's very common in the industry. Odds are you already have someone on your team on the spectrum.
What Is the Stock Market
A lot of this is not possible in iOS, because it doesn’t allow drawing on top of alert type messages. The attacks relating to password managers are probably still relevant. Possibly so are the ones relating to accessibility, although I don’t think iOS allows accessibility controls access like Android does.

In fact, such material is already illegal to possess or trade. The official classification just clarifies that after the fact.

The law that makes this material objectionable is the same one that makes child pornography illegal, and it should be obvious that it wouldn't work very well if each video involving sex with children had to be classified as objectionable before it became illegal.

The criteria are here:

Costco is great if you know what to get...meaning there's a lot of amazing deals next to things that are priced no better than anywhere else from my experience...
So they are using the motors from the printers as generators.

You still need to rectify the voltage to store the energy in lead acid batteries, losing precious voltage in the diodes. I wonder how they get the >13V to charge the batteries.

Power output is probably <10W average.
RescueTime is very powerful and can do this.
I wasn’t the one claiming discrimination against men, and I don’t think it comes much from other employees. I will say that at every place I’ve worked men have been much more welcoming and helpful towards women than men, but as an okd-fashioned conservative I think that’s as it should be.

It’s undeniable that formal discrimination against men is common though, with lots of “women can code” programs and similar. Only last week PGs wife launched some initiative to pay women to go to some code camp, that jind of thing is very common. If you don’t think that is discrimination imagine it was exclusively for men or white people.
How do we know its terrorist propaganda if its illegal to view it? Motive for reading/sharing obviously needs to be a factor.
Thanks for sharing that, very interesting, not what I would have expected. What do you attribute the better outcomes in Texas to? The state has some education challenges I'm aware of, but I do't know about their successes. Texas seems to be pretty successful up to high school, but why don't they succeed for higher ed as well?

I'm always reading about attempts to put extreme conservatives on the state school board and restrict discussion of evolution and also avoid discussing uncomfortable issues around slavery and the founding of the country - that must not have had much impact. For housing, I kind of understand why Texas is much less expensive to live in, partly because they have those endless cities across the plains.
Seriously one of the most overrated jobs in tech...speaking from experience.
Hekar in i,
Fair enough, but I like to stay abreast of the latest propaganda narratives.
Can you give an example of one of these algorithms you’re talking about? I don’t understand why these would work at 512x but not at, say, 4x or 16x.

Google's TTS charges much higher than 0.5$. And you're providing lifetime hosting too. How does it work? I'm afraid that I'd start using it and at some point, you'd go bust.
Someone told me the product with best margin that Costco sells is ... Kirkland toilet paper.

They drove down the cost to absolute minimum simply by opening their own factory.
> less safe, less reliable

Doesn't seem true where I live. Maybe you have a study to support this claim?\

> Bikes probably do make more sense if a majority of your population lives in one or two cities, otherwise it just doesn’t.

Cities in general seem to be conducive to bikes. Not sure why the whole country needs to live in just one or two cities or how that could logically follow.

That is a good point but that requires either having training in place or having time to do that. The workplace I worked at had a pretty high turnout of developers and short term projects using various languages and technologies (our "expert beginner tools" largely abstracted that as well, thankfully), training them was not really an option (and we lacked the required infrastructure). It was an outsourcing/staffing firm btw, not a product company.
it actually seems pretty effective. i don't know his name. i'm sure i've come across it once or twice in reports on the event, but not enough times for it to actually stick.
I don't, but the abstract of the paper he published may offer some insight if you understand the key words:

> In the last decade, new methods of estimating global species richness have been developed and existing ones improved through the use of more appropriate statistical tools and new data. Taking the mean of most of these new estimates indicates that globally there are approximately 1.5 million, 5.5 million, and 7 million species of beetles, insects, and terrestrial arthropods, respectively. Previous estimates of 30 million species or more based on the host specificity of insects to plants now seem extremely unlikely. With 1 million insect species named, this suggests that 80% remain to be discovered and that a greater focus should be placed on less-studied taxa such as many families of Coleoptera, Diptera, and Hymenoptera and on poorly sampled parts of the world. DNA tools have revealed many new species in taxonomically intractable groups, but unbiased studies of previously well-researched insect faunas indicate that 1–2% of species may be truly cryptic.

Yeah sorry I have an issue with mass paranoia.
Also you banned me before years ago TBH. I deserved it but tried to be decent since then.

i think this kind of thing getting more realistic is a backdoor way to get governments to pay attention to verifiable identity.

I got the C by GE bulbs. They are great. You can adjust their temperature all the way down to 1800K (which is why I got them) and you can dim them, all via bluetooth, so they can go into any socket. I put them in the bathrooms so that we can have an almost candlelight experience when going pee in the middle of the night.

I also got a bunch of night lights from Costco that can also do 1800K. Basically, I replaced all the nighttime lighting in my house with 1800K LED, and try to avoid white light after the kids go to bed. It's made a world of difference.
My dad lives in the Highland Park area of Dallas. He says people move there and pay their 20 or 30k a year in property taxes to go to a great school district as it's cheaper than a private school tuition. It sounds like the same thing. Of course that's just one example.
Not a wild idea at all.

This is pretty much how people A/B test for maximum revenue in “free” to play games monetised using micro transactions and other in app purchases.

It’s turned into pure evil there and it’s probably just as likely to spawn pure evil somewhere else.
Dave Amos, one of the authors of this publication, has a YouTube channel called City Beautiful [1] in which he covers issues around urban planning. It is absolutely worth a watch.

Whither worker bees?
Some people may be more sensitive than others, but there's a reason why computer glasses filter out blue light, and it's not simply personal.

Had a similar experience to yours with an office, except the blinding 5000k hangers also bothered a lot of other people, to the point where normally many of them were unscrewed/turned off... except when we had clients we were trying to land coming to the office. Then management decided that we needed to have them all burning full brightness in order to make a good impression for key visiting clients.

Lighting sensitivities are yet another thing that are easy to personalize for in sane office plans, but can be a big drain in an open floor.
Fascinating how the attitude shifts to/away from it being good to force out old residents depending on the emotions around the topic
Do you know where I live or do you just believe that no single "developing" country is currently being exploited by the West?
I use flux to do the same. I cut the color temp to 5800K during the day, which is just enough to cut out those blues that cause headaches, and I go all the way to 1850K at night.

2 weeks ago I was about to sign up for Xfinity cable and internet. At the end of long phone call with a data center rep where I carefully chose every package that I thought I would need, (for a total cost of ~90 $ before tax), the rep informed me that there was a 9 dollar "broadcat TV fee" and a 6 dollar "live sports fee" that were applied to every single cable package offered (but not mentioned in any of promo ads. I was so disgusted I cancelled right then and there. Oh, and that 90$ was a teaser fee with a 1 year contract (I've had a contract with direcTV but never cable). The entire experience was so dishonest that I didn't care if they were offering the best price (they weren't).
Over the next week I demoed slingTV and the streaming direcTV service before setting on youtubeTV. Never going back.
I'm British, but moved to California 10 years ago. I have obviously had many conversations with my American colleagues and friends over the years.

And I am (still) baffled that the starting viewpoint from the American side is that with single payer health care private insurance would be 'abolished' or otherwise become unavailable and/or illegal. Huh? Of course not. It's simply a base level of care given to everyone. If you have the money and desire then why wouldn't you pay for private insurance, or cash out of pocket for a private hospital?

And better yet, that private insurance will become cheaper: it can exclude the rare, chronic and expensive diseases you probably won't get. (As if you ever do, you could rely on the base single payer coverage.)

Its not really relevant but the list seems to not actually describe Asbergers but some other collection of symptoms that results from being socially deprived. (However, this probably matches up with popular conception of Asbergers individuals.)

I think the "key" is finding people who deal with their problems by diving deep in to technical tasks and becoming absorbed in minutiae. An unnaturally small interest set combined with a lack of interest in people.
There are many, many libraries that I work with that are written in Python. Things for which a single script was once sufficient, then a few of them, and eventually multiple thousands of lines of code.

I'm not going to spend years reimplementing that same logic in some other language. I'm going to build on top of it. Maybe I'll need to make changes to some of the underlying code.

Better tooling - which is exactly what type checkers are - makes my life much, much easier and makes me much more productive.

Besides, all these languages exist for a reason - you choose the tool appropriate for the problem. "safe and fast" does not make a language automatically better for a problem.

My guess would be that they use the motors as generators.
Yes, that loophole still exists.
At 4x you would need something like poly-blep with 24/32-bit fixed or floating point support to generate a nice bandlimited sawtooth. Features like oscillator sync can still cause problems. I recall hearing at Clavia HQ that the original Nord Lead used 16x oversampling with a naive generator (subject to hearing it once and my memory over 15 years). Upping to 512x can be reasonable on a fpga, where you can aggressively minimize wordlength and match the DAC. Is there any advantage over say 32x? Maybe not, but feeding the DAC 1:1 can save some complexity.

Edit: So I envision the ultra high rate sawtooth as essentially a n.m bit fixed point accumulator wrapping around by itself, with the n-bit (4? 8?) top part going over to the DAC as a kind of directly generated DXD format signal.
Ever consider that cycling drops because the bike lanes are where snow is either not cleared, or is used to deposit snow from auto lanes?
We need some way to incentivize companies to spread out more instead of overstuffing these same places more and more.
Charles IV. provided Bohemia with multi-hundred year long significant power over the HRE and sovereignty in everything but name inside the HRE, while making Bohemia a large and major power (but we're not expandish anymore today, so that "large" part is usually not even commonly known). That is the major reason why we universally think of him as "The Father of the homeland" (Otec vlasti) in the Czech Republic.

Then the Habsburgs gradually took that away from us and that made us angry in a poetic way in the 1770's, which has caused the Czech National Revival and has formed all of contemporary Czech culture.
You can take business context and build everything from the pixel perfect UI to scalable/maintainable backend code and architecture. You can keep up with tech trends in both areas.

This is very hard, and does not scale long term depending on the product.
Yes it is exactly true, the issue right now in the field of product management, is most PM are in fact PO (product owner) they manage the sprint. But these people have the title of product manager.

Product manager is required job in any company that wants to grow and deliver best products. But these people are very hard to find and very expensive, so instead we hire PO and give them the title of PM and ask them to do what the CEO is asking
The more that people understand about what leads to these kinds of attacks the better. But we aren't going to get much depth of truth from the kinds of sanitized messaging coming from corporate media.

The manifesto is a window into the mind of the killer. It's a distasteful document, but a strong culture that trusts its people would encourage citizens to read it and understand the danger.

As it stands, authorities really don't trust people and instead prefer to nanny them by deflecting from any issues that lurk below the surface for fear of empowering another lone attacker.

This is a poor strategy because it will surely backfire. Instead, frank discussion is most conducive to lasting peace. But after seeing the response of the NZ government I hold little hope of that happening.

I think the American legal stance on this is right - it is not up to governments or people like you to decide what media other people consume, just because you fear they might be negatively influenced.

Thanks for the pointers -- I'm pretty familiar with Blockstack and the Gaia ecosystem. I started playing around with it a couple of years ago, and registered [1] my ID in 2017 maybe? or 2018? I forget. Of course, it was much more bare bones then than now. But the owner address link doesn't work for me today [2].

Happy to give feedback directly on DebutApp, but my initial impressions of it when I tried were - it's a good proof of concept, but its a very early incarnation and so definitely rough on the edges on both product and engineering. It's commendable that this is a side project, since it shows promise.

One of my main questions with a lot of blockstack apps is exactly that - while they prove that something can be done, it's unclear to me how the next person who is going to google for "new blog" and try to pick one of squarespace, medium, or blogger - will use debutapp.

I'm curious about the host-able node comment. Who is this one click deploy targeted at? and what is the incentive for folks to do it today?

Also, any insights on why there's a general sense of lag on the ajax calls that these apps make?

I wonder if they sponsor visas as well.
At the end of the day, engineers need to know what they should build. Customer feedback, usage analytics, and all the other signals about what people might like need to get collected and distilled into actual feature ideas. And those feature ideas need to get broken down into development projects that can test the underlying assumptions and hypotheses.

In other words, product management work needs to get done, one way or another.

Saying you don't need product people, you just need engineers who can do product work, is like saying you don't need engineers, you just need designers and salespeople who can code.

Sure, you could ask engineers to do all the product management. But then they'd just be PMs, except with engineering titles.

All that said, it sounds like you've worked with some pretty bad PMs in the past. And a bad PM can certainly be worse than no PM - kinda like how a bad engineer can make their entire team less productive.
I have no data on it, but I presume it depends on a language heavily. In languages like English where words are not that long it'd be very counter-intuitive that hyphenation could help with reading speed as we don't read individual letters, we read word by word. Splitting words in two parts can only slow down the reader. In languages like German with a lot of very long words built by combining a few simpler ones, I presume hyphenation can be important tool to avoid having big holes in the text that could make it hard for readers' eyes to follow the lines of text.
The main thing* holding back this is that we don't understand the human genome enough to make really useful edits. It's very rare that there's a change that would be better done with germline engineering than somatic cell engineering or gene therapy. One day that won't be true however, and that's when the problems will really begin.

To me the strongest non-religious argument against doing this is that it will further accelerate wealth benefits, eg if you could make your kids smarter. One of the problems with that however is that this technique is so cheap and easy that banning it will just create a black market, or a single country decides to allow it for economic or political reasons and people travel there to get pregnant.

That impossibility of controlling this is why I think we have no choice but to proceed slowly, cautiously, but under full transparency.

* there are also uncertainties about off-target effects and overall safety of the technique but I'm confident those issues will eventually be fixed too.
