Debit comes from a latin verb that means to owe, and credit from a verb that means to trust.

So a debit card is for the money that the bank owes you, and a credit card is for money that the bank trusts you will pay them back.

Fruit machine (homosexuality test)
“The "fruit machine" was employed in Canada in the 1950s and 1960s during a campaign to eliminate all gay men from the civil service, the Royal Canadian Mounted Police (RCMP), and the military.”

O Canada

I imagine this level of national homophobia was standard in most countries at the time. The irony of branding homosexuals as security risks because they could be blackmailed seems to be the sickest form of circular logic.

You do not need CSS for proper high-DPI support, you just need a scale factor for your windows that your code doesn't ignore. AFAIK this is what Qt5 does.

Also AFAIK Gtk+3 cannot do real scaling and instead pretends the display is always a low DPI device and applies integer scaling to everything - their "fractional scaling" is really rendering with integer scaling upwards to a bitmap which is then downscaled (AFAIK^2 this is only done on Wayland because they rely on the compositor for that even though there is nothing that forbids them doing it on X11 too - but i guess they need to push their awful tech somehow). This is where things such as "there are no half-pixels" come from when they talk about fractional scaling.

FWIW personally i use the OneStepBack theme for Gtk3 because it makes the controls actually visible (especially your selection in menus, tabs, etc that isn't just a blue line beneath the control) and saves a bit of screen space.

How Do You Talk to Children About Climate Change?
Make sure your assets are shielded from the consequences. I'm a strong believer in voting with legs.

For example - it's insane how the Miami real estate prices ignore what's going on (they even have a cheerful name - "sunny day floods"): https://fred.stlouisfed.org/series/MIXRNSA
Just sell it already! There's nothing good waiting for Miami, the city will die. Rent if you really want to stay till it blows up.

As far as stocks go many companies do not publish data on how climate change will impact them. But they probably will, soon, and ETFs will follow suit:

It makes perfect sense considering the vast majority of touchscreen devices are locked down. Also a hint: if you ever thought that the ability for "sideloading" means that a device is not locked down, you have fallen victim to PR-speak even though that very word is an indicator of how they see that ability: something not normal, but something that happens from the side. This sort of speech, changing the normal "installing" to mean something controlled by the vendor of your OS and renaming the previous "installing" to "sideloading" (which is optional and this sort of ability to disable it is condoned by the OS maker) is affecting the way people even think about these devices.

Interestingly I just read about this in a Lawrence M.

You'd be surprised how much anti-nuclear activists would disagree with your second point. I'm sure I know a couple that would rather watch the world burn than vote for someone that will build a single reactor.

I think once an issue like that becomes a left/right black/white thing all logic just goes straight out the window. You can't even say the word nuclear without hearing a cacophony of statements about the price of nuclear vs renewables, as if those claims don't need any actual numbers to go along with them.

This is a pretty good idea but it needs a lot of people doing it.

We're in the process of moving home and putting everything into boxes makes one realize how much crap one has bought unnecessarily.

We're on a relatively special case in that we've only recently moved (18 months ago) so we actually have stuff that has never been used in our current house. A lot of this stuff has been donated to charity and some tossed but still my gf wants to take some stuff that hasn't been used in at least 18 months to the new house.

I am excluding Tools and camping gear from the list. The former for obvious reasons, the latter due to having recently had a baby we've not been camping for a bit, YMMV

it should be in seconds - the problem is that the paper assumes that the 'great circle' (straight line) distance between two points should be almost the same as the 'route' distance between those points, with an exponential probability distribution.

This means that if the path between two points is not simple (around a corner) the probability drops off very quickly. If the time between measurements is in minutes, this heuristic is pretty useless (and you should really use log-scale for your numbers!)

edit: this is actually shown in figure 8 of the paper where they explore different 'sampling periods'

If that's Apple's trajectory, why did they things like Hypervisor.framework (much more recent than 10.6's introduction of the App Store), which allows one to make unprivileged virtualization solutions, that can run any OS/application?

To me, it their motivation seems two-fold: (1) they want to carve out a niche for security and privacy. People are willing to spend a lot of money to avoid the data grab of Facebook, Google et al. And people are willing to spend money on a system that focuses on security. So, Apple have invested a lot in hardware security (T2) and software security (sandboxing, read-only system files, mandatory kext signing, user-space drivers).

And, yes (2) they probably also want to funnel more and more through the Mac App store for profit. The thing is, they can make macOS a walled garden system, while keeping the back door open for advanced users. My dad is protected by the Mac App store, application bundle signing, notarization, and sandboxing, he is not going to boot in recovery mode and run csrutil in the command-line. While I can in the use csrutil to lower protection a bit to be able to run DTrace. In other words, I don't believe that they want to or need to turn macOS in a complete walled garden: 90% of the users does not want to or cannot disable security measures, while at the same time keeping the csrutil around keeps the other 10% happy.

---

I think the more serious danger for macOS was negligence. With key execs primarily using iPads and glacial development of macOS, the most imminent danger seemed to be that macOS developed into nothing else but an SDK/IDE for iOS development. But after the last WWDC, I am mildly optimistic that they have woken up.

You won't have universal anything, and especially not income, without equality. The reason that welfare states have low income inequality is because that is a requirement for redistribution. The gains from further automation will likely disproportionally benefit a very small part of the population, but it will be the majority of the population that would be expected to compensate for people losing their jobs. Something that most likely won't be sustainable and even more likely will be impossible to implement.

Also I don't think the West has been progressing much in the last 20 years, especially not compared to Asia. Many parts of Europe and the US is deteriorating, even the wealthier parts, both relativity and absolutely.

> I'm convinced that the grammatical construct of gender exists only to make it easier to identify foreign or uneducated speakers!

It makes pronouns more useful.

"I put the book and the apple on the table. Throw him/her/it away"

If apple is neuter, table is masculine and book is feminine (as is the case in my language) - "him/her/it" is uniquely identifying what you want to throw away. In fact my language goes even further and there are 5 grammatical genders (masculine is subdivided into personal/animate/inanimate). And there are distinctions between fully-feminine plural and mixed plural so you can uniquely identify groups of people with pronouns if one group has males in it and the other one doesn't. Like:

"Eve's sisters met Smiths family yesterday, I invited them(mixed plural=Smiths/feminine only plural=the sisters)"

I agree it's weird when you think about it, possibly not worth it, but I like the quirkiness. It allows for brevity that is very hard to translate properly, especially in dialogs.
