> load several photos that I shot in a burst and then let me cleanly flip back and forth between them to pick the best one

Yes, Photoshop does have that, though you do it through Bridge or Lightroom instead of in the same app. (Bridge is a companion app to Photoshop in all its versions, and Lightroom is bundled with it in most Creative Cloud plans.)

Lightroom is famous for not being super-fast in image import, so you might not find it fit for purpose. It has a bunch of compensating value that makes putting up with this worthwhile for many of us. I’ve tried a few of the alternatives that claim to be Lightroom killers, and they weren’t even close on several key measures.

The latest one I tried couldn’t do hierarchical keyword management and would reliably crash every hour or so, for example.

> they should adopt standard browser zoom shortcuts

Ah, irony; browsers got those shortcuts from Photoshop! Early browsers didn’t have those features at all. It was probably the Mac browsers that made this a standard, since Mac apps more reliably support those shortcuts, since Photoshop and MacOS have such a long and close shared history.

(Okay, the shifted variants aren’t in Photoshop, but the other three are.)
And Google Search. That's actually treated even more specially (compared to GMail and YT) inside Google and it has amazing reliability.

It would be interesting to know more details. I bet results are sometimes incomplete, but somehow Google manages to keep the system correct enough nobody notices a sudden quality drop.

I also understood Search has some special QoS at all levels: from the network to the scheduling of jobs...

Absolutely not. Don’t perpetuate this BS. Calorie for calorie and pound for pound healthy foods are far cheaper and more nutritious than whatever crap people are reaching for on supermarket shelves or drive thru windows these days.

People have had their sense of taste hyper-stimulated for so long that they have grown a distaste for most “healthy” foods, to their own detriment. If every bite isn’t orgasmically delicious they are unlikely to eat that food again.
Ok, that's enough. I'm adding Youtube to my hosts file.

Witness the NFL. Huge amount of viewers of each game, video replay, multiple cameras. The players know they're being watched the minute they step out of the locker room. Yet you still see them failing to exhibit restraint when goaded on by an opponent. The referees always fail to notice the instigators, but almost always catch the retaliators...

It's not about what nomenclature numpy uses, it's about the word tensor being used by some people to refer to arrays for no discernible reason at all (except the coolness factor, maybe?).
An idea I've had is to use GCP preemptibles + script to automatically run a ML training job on instance start + Google Cloud Function + Cloud Scheduler to attempt to start the instance every minute if it gets preempted. The latter two are effectively free, so you'd get the cost benefits of preemptibles as long as the ML training job is resilient to random shutdowns.

What People Thought of Amazon When It First Launched in the Mid-1990s
Fair enough. I guess not all vegans will be homogeneous here either; I'm assuming some are in it for harm reduction, some for ecology, some for the "animals cute" factor. Oh well. I appreciate the insight.
It’s really hard for me not to be skeptical of a study that starts with the premise of measuring everyone else against “the most privileged group,” aka. white men, and then calling their metric “health justice.”

I don’t know the stats off the top of my head but I’ve heard many times that men’s health issues are under-studies relative to women’s — ie breast cancer versus prostate cancer. I’ve also seen that mental health problems affect men more than women, as well as behavioral problems with youth, and yet there’s no outcry for “health justice” for all the men with mental issues or men vastly overrepresented in the prison population.

The study claims that health correlates most strongly with income, and that the gap between black and white has narrowed - and yet the study author claims there’s a “stunning lack of progress.”

Most of America’s problems correlate most strongly with income and more weakly with race and gender, which isn’t surprising when income itself is uneven between race and gender demographics.

Yet it feels to me like we’re constantly crying out about race and gender discrimination while paying much less attention to wealth and income which seem to be the root issue.

Are there racists in the country? Do hate crimes happen? Yes, and we shouldn’t gloss over them.

But are the country’s problems driven mostly by racial hatred? I don’t think so. I think the problem is we have done a lot to pull the ladder up behind the upper-middle class, everyone in the lower income brackets is getting screwed, and that disproportionately affects minorities and historically disadvantaged groups. I think if we could get more serious about putting the ladder back and investing in upward mobility for all, we could make a lot more progress on all the rest of the issues that are affecting the country.

Since when are non-profits not part of the market?

No commercial distributor can hold out forever against the temptation expanding into marketing. That's as hopeless as wishing that ISPs would stay as dumb pipes.

There should be more competition: a non-profit which offers fewer features but which you aren't constantly wondering when it will flip and screw you over, versus more featureful and slicker commercial competition.
No.

I'm also not against suicide, even though society would end if everybody did it. It's about your interaction with others where your morality matters. Whether you have children or not is your personal decision and is up to you, similarly to burning your possessions. It's when you're contemplating to burn other people's possessions that the do/don't questions arise.

The states of the US (or Brazil or Mexico or China, etc.) have all developed with a common body of law language and customs, so I don’t think it would make sense for them to devolve (a federal system devolves a lot, compared to centralized systems).

Nation states still make sense (one day when we become a monoculture perhaps it’ll bd different). We have our peculiar takes on economics, government, culture, norms, etc. I’m not ready for a one world government.

The Atlassian response isn't great. But if you want to stay logged in beyond the process lifetime, that means storing the value on disk in a way that the software can read and use.

The only way to protect that sort of token from disk access is to tie it into some secret storage that is protected with a strong credential -- either a TPM tied key store, or full disk encryption. Otherwise, I can encrypt it all day long, but I'll have to store the key somewhere I can read it, which is fairly well useless -- someone reading your disk who can read the encrypted token is going to be able to read the key as well.
There are a wide variety of laws around procurement and finance that govern these actions.

For international flights, they traditionally scan your passport at the check-in counter.

As a US citizen, this is mostly just to validate any visa requirements for the country you're traveling to.

However, for non citizens, this data gets sent to CBP to create an exit record. I believe the concern is that between the check-in counter and the flight, you could trade places with someone to effectively overstay a visa without CBP's computer systems noticing (since you'd have a valid exit record)... hence the push for facial recognition at the gate.
When they have more influence and impact on citizens than governments, perhaps we should revisit our definition of what "public" means. They can close businesses, make disappear the reach of specific competitors and do all sorts of things that governments cannot do because they agreed with their respective societies to limit their own power after thousands of years of history.

Right now the only part in which are they private is that they were founded by private capital.
> I imagine we can use technology to create simplified versions that lack the complexity required for consciousness while still being nutritious

You could say the same about breeding animals for meat or even people for slavery - in fact that seems to be not to many steps down that route. I don't think either are acceptable though, so we're back to deciding where to draw that suffering line.
It would depend on why people are vegan as to whether they would be okay with eating conscious plants. They could adopt an even stricter diet such as Fruitarianism[0]. I'm not sure if it's currently feasible to adopt a diet of exclusively lab grown food, but that could be an option down the line. They could also become Level 5 Vegans [1] ;)

That is until your web host decides to play by the same game, or is scared into doing so by activist mobs.

Even if you do host your own videos, good luck getting anywhere near the same amount of traffic that you'd get by hosting it on a site like YouTube.

I suppose the next answer would be to host on one's own servers. Well, great. Up until the ISP, domain registrar, or payment processor decides it doesn't like what you're saying and won't even take your money to do so.

The work done is a feature not a bug. The fact that a miner has to locate their equipment by a hydroelectric power plant is what makes the network so secure. That just shows that work is difficult to fake.

All these efforts to limit bitcoin’s energy expenditure seem environmentally motivated, which is good. But the arguments seem equivalent to praising a safe’s security but criticizing how hard it is to open. Those features are linked.

Yes proof of stake or some other algorithm may take over eventually but we don’t know if they are as secure yet. Proof of work is the good idea that made the whole bubble possible and it remains to be seen if any of the other ideas can beat it.

iOS stores app tokens in plaintext, on an encrypted disk.

If your disk is unencrypted, every session token in your browser can be stolen and used to impersonate you, on services such as GitHub, Google, and others.

There are no excuses for using an unencrypted disk for session token storage, whether in-browser or in-application or other.

Vegan here -- naturally, there are as many philosophical approaches to vegan practice as there are vegans, but for me and others I know, it definitely is oriented toward 'harm-reduction' [or as I like to say, minimizing exploitation].

It's impossible to live and thrive without being detrimental to other organisms - for me, the idea is to accept the inevitable cycle of struggle and violence, while minimizing the _exploitative treatment_ of other beings [plant or animal -- easier said than done with regard to plants -- one easy step is to include as much fruit and perennial leaf matter in the diet as practical [i.e., the plant is treated more like something to be nurtured rather than merely 'grown and discarded']

Is YouTube stopping you from buying a camcorder, recording a bit, buying a server, and putting it on the internet? No, they aren't. They're stopping you from doing it on their servers.

It's their product, so they get to choose who can use it and how. You not entitled to tell them what to do with their product. On their platform, they can censor whatever they want.

You don't even pay them any money, and here you are pretending that you have some right to tell them what to do, that this is about your freedom, not theirs.

If this were like, a water, power, telephone, or other utility, you might have some expectation of ability to express free speech on their platform. But YouTube is not an inalienable right.

Americans who manage to avoid knowing that they have Type 1 diabetes long enough to eventually be misdiagnosed as having Type 2 diabetes are a testament to the failure of America's healthcare. These types of cases should be nonexistent in any country with modern healthcare.
On this topic (and related in many ways) is Bryan Cantrill's talk Zebras All the way Down.[1]

The gist is that in medicine there's the concept of diseases that are zebras and horses, rare and common, and the saying goes "when you hear hoof beats think horses not Zebras". Unlike medicine, in software most the easy problems have already been abstracted away or made trivial through our software stacks, so often what's left are Zebras. What used to be the exceedingly rare bugs now account for a large proportion of the odd behavior we see in very robust tech stacks, because the easy bugs have been hunted down and eliminated already.

> 3. I want it to "seem" random (don't play too many songs by the same artist in a row).

That can still be random, for as long as we're not defining the variable:

from $artists choose artist randomly
from $artist.repertoire choose song randomly
play $song

and then of course with the #2 variation on both variables.
Isn't the conversation about using Unicode variables as opposed to ASCII variables and how they are useful when implementing equations from papers and textbooks? How is spherical coordinates not being as useful as cartesian coordinates relevant at all (not that I agree with this opinion)? There are tons and tons of other equations where Unicode letters are useful and the specifics of spherical vs cartesian is not at all relevant to the usefulness of Unicode letters.

Lack of knowledge is one prt, but also convenience plays a big role. Cooking is considered a household chore, and life should be easy. The neighborhood store doesn't offer raw ingredients to cook, and you need weekly planning to stock up on this when you drive to the big store outside of town. You get everything processed and sugared up right around the corner every day.

This can be great for personal use, but it can be very bad for communicating with others; (a) you won't be able to write a paper with a co-author unless you agree on your domain-specific abbreviations in advance (and, if you think that's easy, then I say from experience that it isn't), and (b) most journals prefer a minimal number of custom commands, and some forbid custom commands entirely. Even if journals permit custom commands, the more you define, the more likely you are to conflict in some baroque way with their own style files.

EDIT: Also, even if you do this only for personal use, it can be very hard to go back from it (just search for TSE questions on macro-expanders; there are plenty, but all of them that I know of assume some well formedness constraints that make sense to their authors but will almost inevitably conflict with one's own ad hoc conventions).

It's "cheap" if your labor is valued. I imagine the relationship between health consequences and income could somewhat be related to having multiple jobs, long hours, and being too tired to prioritize health after a long day.

That fast food looks quick, convenient and affordable when you're going from one job to another and don't have much time or the additional money to spend on healthier fast casual eating options.

I do not disagree that whole fruits and vegetables are, by and large, cheap and ubiquitous. If the health outcomes were tied to "cheap and ubiquitous" produce, we'd be off the charts. Yet, here we are.

My point is workers who are barely scraping by are disadvantaged to not have the flexibility that higher-income earners do, to actually have the time/energy to cook a healthy meal. Or pay someone else to do it. They end up opting for meals that don't offer the macronutrient composition they need (e.g., frequently the issue is overconsumption of carbs), and are lacking in micronutrients as well (because there aren't enough fruit/vegetable servings in their diet).
In Canada though? Because in Canada it is definitely rare to see cash now except in boomers. Even a lot of places don't accept cash like gyms for even purchases like drinks or towels.
