FWIW, it's not that big of a hassle: just set up email forwarding & have everything sent to your old gmail account sent to your new email, done.
It's two intersecting curves:

- Risk, which is inversely related to early arrival

- Wasteage, which is directly related to early arrival

The slope of the curves is largely impacted by:

- Personal risk tolerance; but also

- Frequency of flying

Personally:

* When I fly for vacations, I am "arrive early and wait" type of person - typically 3 hrs or more. I have no problems being relaxed and reading at the airport :).

* But when I fly weekly for work, I just can't _afford_ to be that early. The math is simple - 2hrs early times two flights a week times 45 weeks (assume few weeks of vacation or working remotely etc) is... 180 hours wasted at the airport.
Holly crap, I just spent a month of work at the terminal!

If I only arrive one hour before flight, I reduce that number by 90hrs. That's more than two work weeks saved - for how much additional risk have I taken? How many incidents will I incur? If I miss one out of every X flights due to reduced margin, am I still ahead?

A lot of it is down to routine. I believe (but don't have math for this) that I have higher risk on my vacation trips, even with increased margin & time, as I don't have the routine down. Whereas on my weekly trips, 15 minutes is plenty.

(I fly out of Pearson, which is about half the yearly throughput of Atlanta. Over 7 years, I have never missed a flight due to these margins. I did once miss a flight because I forgot my wallet - since then I have two wallets: one stays in the travel backpack, always; and one is in my pants. I like systems :)
Agreed. I right now can't name a single on Democrat policy that is being pushed heavily by any candidate except "TRUMP MUST BE STOPPED".

That's not going to work unless the economy is figuratively on fire right at the election.

This can't be solved without coordination, ie. federal government.

Brands went on a diversification kick less than a decade ago. If a customer prefers Triscuits Flavor #5, but stores only stock popular Flavor #3, that person might not choose to buy the brand at all when they go shopping. They could reach for, and learn to prefer, a competitor's brand.

If a potential new customer doesn't like popular Triscuits flavors, but sees a newer but a less popular flavor, the availability and visibility of the less popular but still desirable flavors might convert them into a customer.
I'll have to admit, that's pretty clever and the best actual use for a pool noodle I've ever seen. I still don't understand what exactly you're supposed to do with a pool noodle.
Internet radio may be able to solve your problem. Music podcasts, and internet radio sites/apps mean geographic location is no longer the limiting factor for what you can listen to.

There are big names like iHeartRadio and SlackerRadio but lots of smaller radio stations have internet streams and/or apps. Podcasts are nice because they can focus on niche genres or provide more information about artists/releases. Mixcloud is one of my favorite sites for listening to radio shows.

From a taxation perspective, yes. If it’s earned income, then the university should put the “student” on a W2 and pay then as such. Otherwise, it’s unearned income and I mean “unearned” in terms of tax treatment; that doesn’t imply that it isn’t deserved. A day trader makes unearned income, but nobody could argue that doing that isn’t “work.” But the IRS still considers that also unearned.

I am all in favor of cutting taxes on unearned income. However ironically, those most opposed to that also like to complain when it’s their unearned income being taxed as in the case of a stipend or fellowship.
I can kinda see why you say that, my best guess is if I delete references to politics and progressive, american etc, then you might see it as less an issue.

The comment I was replying to was pretty absurd wording of punishments.

Anyway it’s always a little hard to know exactly how to interpret the guidelines as there is quite a bit of subjectivity.

> Ray Wang, founder and principal analyst at Constellation Research, says this is about consolidation at the high end of the market. “This is a smart acquisition for HPE. Cray has been losing money for some time but had a great portfolio of IP and patents that is key for the quantum era,” he told TechCrunch.

Translation: American supercomputing innovation has reached it peak and will now shift to leaning on government-enforced monopolies. Consequence: China will inevitably become the leader in high-performance computing. And if the analyst's insinuation is correct that HPE/Cray has blocking patents and is prepared to use them, then China will also lead in quantum computing specifically.
How happy would you be to use a system where 50-75% of commands start with "debian-" or "ubuntu-" or "redhat-" or "suse-" (assuming that all patches have to obey this renaming rule)? As a user, I personally wouldn't want to use a system like that and I would switch distributions to one where I don't have to repetitively type out the name of my distribution into a shell.
Meh.

>Given the way they handled "The Machine" though

Tell me more...I'm an HPE fan, and live near Ft Collins, get to tour the lab sometimes. I see progress being made but maybe its not in a very public way.

Biggest thing I could add is that the 'Machine' is not a reference architecture or target...its a pipeline of research that (by visual accounts) is continuing...

Smoking a cigarette triggers a physical addiction akin to that of heroin. It destroys free will. Social media? I dunno man if people can't look away from insta or FB long enough to watch their kids play on the floor then maybe that's their problem and not their app's. At some point we have to assign personal responsibility to ourselves and admit that the reason FB can take advantage of weak wills is because we let our wills get weak.

Those malicious actors who helped affect an election only got away with it because we began to thoughtlessly slurp the spoon-fed pap that the media (MSM, fake news sites, social networks, all of it) gives us. Facebook isn't a bad actor: it's a symptom of a society that gave up critical thought. If we regulate FB it will just be something else that comes along and manipulates us. If we work together to elevate critical thinking and skepticism then we stand a chance of owning our consumption again.

To me, facebook is this amazing place where I get to stay in touch with all my friends and family, get to plan events with them, laugh about cat gifs and live through the highs and lows of life together.

So much good has happened to me through facebook...friends, jobs, love (I met my wife on FB).

And the fact that every day there is millions more joining facebook means more people get to have these super powers of hyper connectedness I got to have for over 10 years already!
Ok my mistake.

> But why do you think such a thing is a warning?

Because it's a bad way to spend your life.
Most likely, the sale is to move the products that don't otherwise move (eg, everything but the parmesan garlic). Clearly you're willing to spend full price on those, so there's no incentive to sell more of them at a lower margin.

What makes you say that?
Exactly. They make it seem so hard, esp "don't carry cash folks." I keep about $2 in quarters in my car. At least one is for Aldi, most are for air if I need it, and an extra few on whatever might come up. The latter are often drink machines.

If financial aid helped everyone it should, it would just be called low- or no-tuition. But if schools admitted that, they would have to accept something they would rather not talk about: generous-sounding financial aid does not make jacking up tuition a victimless crime.
After my first experiences with the "bag-as-you-go" strategy causing the weighting platform to lose track of items I've scanned I gave up on that. Placing on the scales directly simply works more reliably.
This happened to me. I tried fixing and contacting sites and it just gets worse and worse.

I now try to cancel or change any order I get as that ends up working best to have the real first.last@gmail.com figure it out. It’s also amazing how many sites let you do important stuff like change airline tickets without login and how many sites never confirm email.

I spent two years with Uber trying to fix someone using my email and driving. I would get password reset emails all the time, but I couldn’t use them because they had their phone as two factor. Really frustrating.
Facebook itself is disrupting the US elections by banning right-leaning activists. They are also banning misuse of their data if they suspect Trump might be using it it to win in 2020.

The blog post gives some hints at what it does differently but makes odd claims about unbound not working with captive portals, which I've never had any problems with. But maybe I've just been on well behaved networks or something. Look forward to this being done and ported.
> Ultimately the fix for everything is more supply.

I always thought this was the biggest problem Obamacare (well intentioned though it is) left unaddressed. It looks like the ACA lacks the reforms that would allow supply to grow to meet demand.

> ... treated as fact by people and media

Sure it is a fact that Elon Musk predicts they will have robotaxis in a year. It is not however a fact that Elon Musk advises the drivers to drive carelessly.

> How can it do this but __also__ "require active driver supervision"? This statement implies ....

Yes it does. In a parking lot. At parking lot speed. While you are not in the car.

> and it __definitly__ implies the vehicle is autonomous.

If by autonomous you mean it can automatically come to you in a parking lot then yes. If by autonomous you mean you can sleep behind the wheel while
it is driving in the streets then it __definitly__ does not imply that.

> But these are conflicting statements...

No they are not. One is about operation in a parking lot. One is about future functionality/value of the product. And one is about the current functionality
of the product.

> people think that Tesla is fully autonomous and thus get into accidents like this

Citation needed. I'd say it is more likely that they are not using the car as intended, not that they mistakenly think their car is fully autonomous.

> ... covering their ass

Not sure what your point is here. So they are damned if they do damned if they don't?

> but if people are still doing this then Tesla isn't doing a good job of making this clear

People don't always use things as designed. This is not exclusive to Tesla cars.

> They simply hide it inside the legal documents

Not true. It is on the first page when you search for Tesla FSD. And I am pretty sure the warning is shown to the users at different steps before AP can be activated.
> Internet radio may be able to solve your problem

It's a problem that I've solved long ago, really. Internet streaming services bring their own set of problems, so I don't use them.

I do listen to podcasts (downloaded, not streamed), but not for music.

That works if they're both comprehensions, but starts looking more gross when the 2nd argument isn't a comprehension, and now you're looking at deciding among options like

zipped = zip({
apple.stem
for satchel in satchels
for apple in satchel
},
someList
)

or

zipped = zip({
apple.stem
for satchel in satchels
for apple in satchel
}, someList)

(Which admittedly looks reasonably tidy, but starts to get gross again if we start looking at 3-ary functions.)

You've also got to contend with the first not being a comprehension meaning that the comprehension's indenting can't so easily be kept the same:

zipped = zip(
someList,
{
apple.stem
for satchel in satchels
for apple in satchel
}
)

Which is where I was going with the comment about edge cases. Personally, I don't want formatting rules where you might decide to format the arguments to a function in different ways depending on the specifics of what other arguments the function has. I like simple. Give me one rule for when it all fits on one line, and another rule for when it doesn't. And make sure neither of the rules causes me to have to re-indent things just because a function picked up an additional argument. And make sure that the rules are completely oblivious to the function's arity.
The very concept of "a window" is pretty different across platforms.

MacOS is the only one with a concept of proxy icons. It has a distinction between the key and main window. There's a responder chain for event handling. Toolbars have a built-in editor. There's QuickLook for easy previewing of sub-files. There are standard popovers, which can be torn off.

On the Windows side, I'm sure they've got their own set of unique features and constraints that the Mac doesn't have. (The Ribbon and keyboard navigation come to mind.) Same with Linux.

Lacking a feature often means you need to design the UI different elsewhere. Without proxy icons, you might need to add a menu item to mimic that functionality, for example. These things domino into each other. There's a reason that good Mac apps and good Windows apps don't tend to look identical.

English and German are fairly similar, as languages go, but you can't just do a word-for-word replacement of English and get a good German paragraph, or vice versa. Not infrequently, you need to re-arrange everything to make it work. The pieces you have to work with are just different.

2D/3D graphics APIs (if that's what you're referring to) aren't like this. For the most part, they're all playing with the same basic pieces. When my Mac traded OpenGL for Metal, I barely noticed, even as a developer writing graphics code. When my Mac switched from Carbon to Cocoa, everybody needed to rewrite almost everything.
As someone who has not worked in retail I don't know much about how "employee owned" actually manifests for WinCo employees (esp. shop floor non-managers), but it does seem like they have much better benefits than other chains. And it's quite cheap, so would recommend to Western US folks.

Olympia Academy: discussing philosophy and physics
>While the documentary is about the specific emotional journey of General Magic and the psychological impact of defeat, there’s a fair bit to unpack when we think more broadly about tech culture’s attitude toward failure. Who cleans up the mess? Who gets to fail and bounce back?

This strikes me as needlessly philosophical. People who take risks sometimes fail, and people with talent and money usually bounce back, especially if they don’t have kids. These are choices that very few are in any position to make, and this life is only for a very very small portion of motivated and a bit crazy people.
I agree entirely with your second paragraph. With that being said, I do think it is very possible to test unbiased product-market fit. Simply do the promotional channels you would do if you had a product and pretend you have the best version of your product already and see if anyone will bite.

For instance, cold call companies and pretend you have the best version of your product on the phone or create a landing page that offers your "future product", buy PPC ads, and get people to fill out a lead gen form.

In both cases, once you talk a little bit, let them know the product is still under development and ask if they'd like to be contacted again once development is done.

There are way more than 5 aces, so I'm not sure where that number comes from, but he certainly does have a pretty insane record. Especially impressive given that Iranian F-14 pilots at the time couldn't get more Phoenix missiles from America due to sanctions (I believe), so there was heavy emphasis on trying to win engagements without using them.
Pretty much no one used it, and it was....weird.

what do you think the result of

def cmplt((type_a, value_a), (type_b, value_b)):
return locals()

is? Now granted, you shouldn't do that, but what you think it is? a dict with 4 keys, right? {'type_a': ..., 'value_b': ...}.

That's wrong. It has those four keys, and two more: '.0' and .1', whose values are the packed tuples.

!?!?!
The equations satisfied by tensor products are exactly those of drawing things next to each other. Look up Bob Coeckes Kindergarten Quantum Mechanics which was linked elsewhere here.

Its easy to label those who advocate for more empathy as 'leafy liberals' or hypocrites. But this this just a ruse to justify the lack of empathy for those who make this argument.

The immediate shift of the focus from those who are homeless and suffering to the consequences just confirms their priorities. They don't care about anyone else, they just feel entitled to a life without homeless people and that's what bugs them about homelessness. But no one promised you that. 100 years ago poverty and suffering was widespread but this got solved, not by complaining about their existance but with better policies and concern. Thats why modernity is associated by a more humane caring society compared to the past.

Dehumanizing others carries a great cost, you are just dehumanizing yourself and a society that has no value or concern for human beings is not a civilization. Homelessness cannot force anyone from left to right, these people were nowhere near left or liberal to start with. These are not labels for your personal living convenience, they stand for values and ideas.

I saw that there is the ability for an Admissions person to do an override in a link posted in this thread, I was curious how often it was done as it wasn't recommended to me at all. So that makes sense.

I was very close to joining the USMC/Army to deal with all of this. USCG/USAF (admittedly didn't try USNG) and everyone else were "full" back then if I didn't have a Bachelors. I graduated right after 9/11..
In this case the problem seems to be the university trying not to treat the grad student as an employee.
You're bringing up a person-to-person case that I have _three times now_ stated that I am not talking about.

People are doing that because that's what "block" in the social media context usually means. Sites ban, users block. And that's what the journalist probably meant too, so your position rather sounds like an attack on a strawman.

Sounds like something traditional payroll providers will provide as soon as the market is proven (and is easily accomplished with ACH modernization in progress).

I’m interested in how it changes loan interest accrual at scale, as you can now pay loans off faster if the pay cycle is tightened.
But not quite like an estate since you have to have an estate larger than $11.4M before any taxes will be applied to it. That raised limit was also part of the tax bill; you’re just offsetting the cost.
Living on the West Coast I see carts all the time that have the wheel locks, they just don't do anything.

As a person that has been a cart pusher, carts suck. The wheels, especially at the front where they put the wheel locks are the first thing that break. They barely touch the ground and spin in circles all the time. Stores rarely ever invest in fixing or buying new carts.

I firmly believe that many places in the US simply gave up on it, because what happens instead is people still try to steal them, drag them a great distance damaging them, and they have to go get it anyways. I think we had maybe 3 good carts at the Sam's Club I worked at our of like 200 or 300 carts.
A few years ago my dad and I got hiking backpacks from Aldi, as well as "hydration packs" and light cycling bags for a grand total of about $50 for the two of us. We promptly took the hiking packs and water bladders with us to the Philmont BSA reservation, and they held up just fine.

We bought some more the next time they were available, and they were even better than the first generation. I love those backpacks.
What does that even mean, in concrete terms? How does it affect my health, and what causal evidence is there to support that link?
