Some runs of Apple hardware (well, any hardware) tends to have good and bad models. I tend to avoid any major hardware changes for the first 6mo and I've heard that advice for years.

I've seen similar "bad luck" in first-world countries. So I don't think it's that. It's more likely a bad run of hardware or harsher working conditions (more humidity, not having a/c or something).
The same logic applies to a living room that doesn't need to be as big as a football stadium: sofa,TV, a few chairs,table and sobe cabinets..what else is there?
Excellent work! I wonder if somebody already tried to run it against Rails codebase.

Wow! That is insane!

Here it's about $800 for anything less than 3 hours each way per truck load. And I think that is a rip-off. I've seen college towns that'll charge $50 for frat bros to move you about town all said and done (but then again a frat bro is moving your TV, so beware).
I didn't think it was too bad. I tend to enjoy these types of projects though.

I did manage to puncture the battery slightly at one point, Luckily I thought ahead and let the MBP drain to ~0% to reduce the chance of a lipo related fire. So nothing happened. I wasn't gentle about removing it, if you took the time to properly heat the glue and pry carefully it could be done with no drama.
The right way to say it is "Where are the problems?" (present tense), or "Where were the problems?" (past tense)

The issue with "Were the problems?" is that it's grammatically incorrect on a level that makes it Really Hard to understand, if not totally ambiguous. I honestly didn't know what exactly you meant until I read your comment explaining it in the other chain.

That said, I like the premise of the article, and how you break down the different types of problems. The idea that the value of diversity is in having different backgrounds, mindsets, and values which provide different perspectives is one that I share.

Maybe for your future posts, consider pushing your text through Grammarly or another English grammar checker to clean up your prose. Solid grammar is a force multiplier when it comes to perceived quality and readability of a text (don't take this to mean Perfect grammar, though. I think an individual's voice shines through inconsequential grammar mistakes).
> Value, like energy, can neither be created nor destroyed, but it can change form.

This is both false and unproductive. Value is unlocked and created all the time. People are much wealthier and better off than their ancestors, despite our far larger population. Hello technology! They didn't have refrigerators, microwaves, the internet, smart phones, modern medicine and so on. Today we're increasingly concerned with overeating vs starvation.

There are minimums investment amounts on many mutual funds include the Vanguard ones which are most popular with personal finance investors. ETFs don't have minimums allowing for more home investor participation, especially from those new to investing or personal finance.
I hate having to take care of the yard, to deal with unreliable tradespeople when things break, to deal with the huge expense of minor home repairs

So, how often do things break, then?

I've always thought of home ownership as full control of what gets replaced and when. No unnecessary refurbishments unless you like that sort of work, or opt in for preventative maintenance. Most people I know who live in single family houses haven't had to do much actual or imminent repairs. Wirings last for decades. Ditto for pipes and sewers. Heating too. Some have done minor jobs like repainting a few rooms, or painting the roof every ten years. Others couples do a lot of redesign, refurbishing, and redecorating all the time but they seem to like it.

In my experience, owning your house is a very cheap way to live unless you like to re-do things all the time. There's the risk of disasters like pipes breaking and flooding walls but those are, honestly, dead rare (and you carry insurance, of course).

Ditto for yard. You can make the yard do with minimal maintenance if you choose to do so. Or you can create a varied garden that generates a lot of work throughout the season if you like that sort of thing. But it's quite easy to create a minimal maintenance yard and most home owners I know seem to have opted for just that.

Yeah.....I used to be BIG amazon fan. On the surface amazon is amazing, easy shopping, no need to walk around the store, no need to drive, no need to talk to anyone, it saves time. HOWEVER, reviews used to be great but now you simply cannot trust anything but negative reviews.

So now, I'm going back to basics when it comes to shopping for anything over $1k+, I talk to people I know. People that do not have any skin in the game.

Now that I think of it, anything online cannot be trusted. For example, I am looking for a new car, all the car reviews are mostly positive. Car reviewers usually get invited to events but I'm sure if they shit on a brand they would not have access to vehicles before release. I'm looking at new Santa Fe, however, they recently got their offices raided because of the massive problems with 2.4 engine(fires, and high failure rates) and no reviewer even mentions it. So, one needs to go to forum of owners and see what they experience is like.

I wish there was a different amazon, where the website actually researches the product, and offers expert + verified consumer reviews that cannot be swayed in any way. No 3rd party sellers. One can only dream.
Contracts to port all those truly ancient proprietary stuff to truly ancient non-proprietary stacks are fine too.

Heads up - it's considered poor form to edit your previous reply like this rather than responding directly to comment below.

That said, are you claiming that life only has value if there exists some "ecological necessity" for it? Because I just don't see enough consistency in any definition of "ecological necessity" to make it a meaningful term. Ecology has shifted dramatically throughout earth's history - any species you could have called "ecological necessary" in the jurassic era doesn't seem so necessary in the long-run judging by the multitude of life that continued after extinction events.

This shit is toxic masculinity in action – the part that affects men. Women protest this kind of thing because if they have children they need to go home to, then they are unable to compete on hours with men who can stay late and rely on their wives. But men deserve time with their families too, and single people deserve downtime. Toxic masculinity drives this competition of who can suffer more for the company, and everyone loses (except the shareholders).

Pay your taxes.

Just pay them. If you are wealthy enough to worry about and have to time to game the tax system, you should just pay them. Don't over-itemize to save yourself a few hundred dollars.

The attitude of avoiding taxes baffles me. We are the government. We all use roads and rely on the infrastructure, the idea that is it normal to not pay your fair share angers me to no end.

I understand using a 401K, getting exemptions for some things are built into the system. I am not talking about those. If you are truly struggling, I understand why you would need to game the system a bit.

I am talking about wealthy and middle class people who deliberately abuse the tax code. Be a good citizen, pay your goddamn taxes.
Although the car was three miles away from the planned exit when the spoofing attack began, the car reacted as if the exit was just 500 feet away—abruptly slowing down, activating the right turn signal, and making a sharp turn off the main road.

This could be used in an assassination. To prevent this, motorcades should use human drivers until self driving cars become smart enough to realize when they're being spoofed.
in addition to the complexities they add to every layer of the stack that ajross and alain94040 brought up, they're not all that useful in practice. i seem to recall that they'd rarely be over 50% utilized and the majority of instructions in the delay slot were nops
I think many people view UBI as transformative (as you suggest), though they don't always talk about it in those terms. Increasingly, production and services will be automated leaving fewer and fewer jobs for people. In a far off dystopian future, there will be some Ubercorp that does everything, controls all production and services leaving no paid work for people. UBI is simply a means for smoothing out the transition for people to new careers or a world where fewer jobs exist. Obviously, as things become more automated, taxes on these corps will have to increase. There has to be a cash flow cycle, otherwise money will pool at the top among the shareholders of the companies that won the automation race. Thus, as long as there is cash flowing from the bottom to the top (thanks to UBI) it is sustainable. Otherwise, the economy will be broken; it already is for some now.

GPS is only a supplement for maritime collision / allision avoidance. All you actually need are: radar, eyes, horn, flags, lights, VHF radio, and charts. Of course GPS is certainly helpful as a backup and provides some protection against human error.
Hardly anyone doing the same job gets the same salary, with notable exceptions.

Where we live it’s illegal to make tight neighborhoods where children can walk around. Minimum lot siZe is 1/4 or 1/3 of an acre. We got lucky because we’re grandfathered in.
On one of my harder-hearted days I would've felt schadenfreude (rich assholes waste obscene amounts of money on tacky shit, get burned, film at 11), but today I feel sorry for them. The whole thing is just sad. On the macro level, such a tragic mis-deployment of resources. And on the micro level, misplacing one's priorities on material things and finding out the hard way that it doesn't bring any meaning to your life. I know someone going through this now in a more modest house... slowly but surely, starting to get tired earlier and earlier in the afternoons (granted, she smokes), getting sick of chores like cleaning gutters, mowing, clearing spiderwebs etc.

And all those empty rooms in the photographs! I don't imagine they see many days of being filled with smiling, laughing guests. Which is really the only true use of a house that big... you need to entertain, you need hundreds of friends to share it with, right? Otherwise what's the use? Maybe that's just me. I would probably get supremely depressed otherwise, all that space around me, waiting to be used, reminding me how empty it is.

Everybody gets old. Everybody dies. Everybody follows each other in a grand parade to oblivion. These people won the game the mid-20th century told them was being played, but everybody ultimately loses the Big Game.

No killing, ideally, but getting lost maybe. The car should use its optics to stay on SOME road no matter what; in this case maybe it didn't stay on the RIGHT one.
The government on the federal level doesn’t need more money. They need to spend less. If they were using the money on the social safety net or infrastructure. I might agree.
There's nothing to disclose. Tesla and everyone knows their system is vulnerable, and knows that the solution is that the driver of the car is responsible for driving the car, which prevents this attack from succeeding. Also it's not anymore dangerous than Google maps telling you to make a wrong turn or a map being out of date. Navigation is not a safety feature.
They do. Non-engineers just tend to blame the age/quality of their company issued hardware rather than the problematic software causing performance issues.
UBI will never replace welfare. People are not going to agree to cut off current welfare programs.

And it will not stay at a $1000. It will go up. Not long after implementation, a politician will soon say that $1000 is not a livable wage and that it needs to be $2000. The next politician will say that it needs to be $5000. Basically this opens the door to socialism where we will just be haggling on the amount of wealth redistribution. Wealth redistribution doesn't work and never has.

Unfortunately some work (Mac, and iOS development) requires a Mac OS device.
A lot of the open concept houses around here use enough space for four rooms for one big one. Usually kitchen + dining area + a single living room easily large enough to be two. If you're lucky you have one other room in the public area, designated by design as a dining room (distinct from the merely-yards-away dining area!), and if you're super lucky it's at least got three walls rather than just being designated by flooring and maybe like one pillar.

More rooms is nice if you don't like being on top of every single other person in the house all the time, without having to go to your bedroom (aren't we supposed to only go there for sleep, for sleep-hygiene reasons?) to escape. In recent houses this means using ~3x the space you actually need to accomplish that, mostly by adding a room or two in a finished basement, because the main public area's gigantic, yes, but also entirely open.

It's also very nice to be able to contain messes. So nice. One large shared living space plus kids means no part of your house ever doesn't look like shit without heroic efforts or paid help.

What is this comment in response to? The linked article does not advocate evading taxes in any way.

You make it sound like some generic class of people have dopey business expectations. But in this specific situation AT&T promised to hire people as an inducement for the massive tax gift.

forcing their hand on creating a repairable product.

I don't believe any of the proposals mentioned by the OP nor the comment you're replying to are suggesting this.

Supplying the specs is a big benefit in my purchase decision. But not something I think should be required since it will undoubtedly give competitors more of an edge in their own development.

Competition is what I value about markets. Preventing anti-competitive behavior is a big thing I value about regulation. These seem like reasons for, not against, right-to-repair.

As an engineer (software) who owns his own SFH and also did a gut rehab. I hate doing repairs on my house. Between not having the correct tooling, the time premium I pay beyond what a reputable tradesman will take and how much I prefer working on software for dealing with home repair, it makes _zero_ sense for me to do this work. Every time I do repairs I think of my run rate vs the professional I could be paying to do the work and get disgusted. The only reason I ever do it is that finding said professional is a gig unto itself.

I like the _control_ I have in owning my place, but I abhor the responsibility of fixing systems.

> Yonatan Zur, Regulus Cyber CEO and Co-Founder, emphasized this goes way beyond Regulus Cyber and Tesla:

“We designed a product to protect
vehicles from GNSS spoofing because
we believe it is a real threat.
..
By reporting and sharing incidents
such as this we can ensure the
autonomous technology will be safe
and trustworthy.“

Regulus is reporting a host of vulnerabilities, and conveniently has already developed a product to "protect" against the problem (not necessarily solve it, no details are divulged in TFA).

Regulus could be a good actor, but there is no denying they have incentive to slant the research and findings in a way favorable to their bottom line - SALES.

I noticed a lot of fear statements in the article. Appealing to the emotion of fear is a classic, common sales tactic. Especially when it's difficult to precisely quantify the risks, likelihood, and full implications of the negative outcome.

Until the claims are replicated and verified by an independent third party, best to take this report with a grain of salt. Especially regarding the Regulus Product purporting to protect against GPS / GNSS spoofing.

An interesting and relevant moral question is:

How many people are killed every day by human drivers? Would it be better if all motor vehicles switched to autonomous and the death by automobile accident rate drastically lowered, but was still greater than zero?

Even with exploits like this GPS attack, I suspect the death rate will probably be substantially lower than it is with humans at the helm. As another thread points out, human drivers can be blinded with maliciously operated lasers, yet such events remain rare.
Probably the headline in the article,

"Minimize your Taxes".
And the kicker is that the manager can't tell you that it's because of upper management because that would destroy morale even more,

I'm not sure that's the case. I've worked at a few large corporations, and I've always appreciated it when my direct manager has told me flat out that a specific deadline or priority shift is due to politics outside of the organization. In fact, I'll go further to say that doing what you recommend will do more to erode morale than being honest and forthright with the team.

Whenever there's an urgent request or a priority shift, the team will ask questions, and will expect the manager to have an answer. There is a temptation here, to try to reach for grandiose answers in order to try to justify why the new priority is the most important thing in the world. But the problem is that people talk. They'll quickly find out whether the shift in direction was due to an actual changing market need or whether it was due some executive wanting to look good in front of his or her peers in the boardroom. And when that information leaks, it'll do far more to destroy morale than a simple admission of politics up front would have. If the manager is lying to the team about this stuff, what else could they be lying about?
Most of your classic closed source RDBMS (e.g. Oracle) had this as an option, no idea if they still do. Some purpose-built cloud databases operate this way because it makes perfect sense in that environment. Many domain specialized databases kernels (e.g. for real-time sensor data models) support or require this. It isn't something I recall seeing in open source but that is probably because it only works if you are doing full kernel bypass, which also hinders portability.

I started implementing raw block device support for my own databases about five years ago and it turned out to be brilliant for more reasons than I expected. I should have tried it much sooner. Ironically, it requires less code than using the file system.
This is, I think, the essential definition of a "state actor". The actor is operating on behalf of a state that will shield that actor from most if not all consequences of their actions.
