Any run of the mill decent Win10 laptop should be fine. Here's the one I've been using since late 2017 that's been serving me very well. https://www.walmart.com/ip/HP-Omen-15-ax250wm-15-6-Full-HD-I...
Anecdotal solution my friend uses when his MacBook pro needs servicing:

Takes machine into apple store
“Yep, new keyboard needed”
“That’ll be 3 weeks”
“Can I have a loaner laptop?”
“No, we don’t do that”
“Ok I’d like to buy your latest highest spec MBP you have in stock on my credit card”
“Ok here you go”

3 weeks later:
“Your MBP is ready”
“Cool, can I return this one please as I’m still in the returns window”
“...okay”

Loaner laptop achieved
How do we ensure that they don't politically discriminate against people? What happen if they block you on facebook? At least if the government is doing something I don't like I can vote for a different one, how can I influence facebook decisions? I'd rather have someone who must uphold the first amendment managing my money than someone who don't or even worst, will take the interest and demands of countries like China into consideration.
Averaging over categories of wildly distinct things is misleading. It's like taking average temperature of all human bodies in the hospital and judging public health by that measure - ignoring the fact that some of those are dead bodies in the freezer and some are running high fever. Or, another example, if you look at average wealth of people in a pub, and Bill Gates and Warren Buffet walk in to have a pint, the average wealth would jump up, but nobody really became any richer. Conclusions made on this kind of measures make sense only in specific conditions, but when we could a huge expensive car as one thing and 1000 tiny toothpicks as 1000 things and averaging over that, it can not help but being misleading.
I always thought there was an evolutionarily produced tendency to not want to eat the same thing all the time, because if you rely on one food type from one source, no matter how good it is, you risk something going wrong with it that you don't sense.

So I would think that even if you came up with the scientifically "perfect" food, it wouldn't take long before most people felt ill at the sight.
Just get a 2015 macbook pro.
I think there is some value in having more people chime in on this issue. Apple needs to know that there is great dissatisfaction among loyal customers about many of their recent product design choices. Maybe with Ives gone, they'll start valuing functionality, rather than style, on their products aimed towards professionals.
Useful note for today is that reinstalling Win10 on a device that already has a license is usually very easy - it automatically detects the motherboard serial or whatever and doesn't even ask for anything.
That sounds sort of like the Olympics but for steroid-users.
Why we're moving our agency to Kubernetes
A whitelist of FAANG crawlers would cement their hegemony - a blacklist of known-badly-behaved crawlers doesn't.
It's confusing, because they refer to themselves as a potential competitor to S3 several times in the linked article, but I thought I read somewhere that conceptually what they're building is actually just the data persistence layer of a service like S3?

A complete S3-like service would require a third-party tool on top of Sia. Goobox[1], for example, uses sia as a storage backend and provides an S3-compatible API[2].

In other words, right now - I think if you are interacting with Sia directly you can do whatever you want with the files you have access to. Not 100% sure about that.

If true, the cause could be stress related. Probably from the keyboard not working...
What relationship? The relationship they are forced into?
Does it have to be production and not a staging environment? If that is the case, we do have a production demo account for sales reps in our app. We entered highly curated nearly 1-1 fake test to real-life data. So no hard-coded data or test-mode. It's very important that is feels 100% accurate from an experience standpoint. We created test users with emails we had access to, so they could still get emails from the platform as a demo user.
Wouldn't that be the most convenient way of all to get a claim voided?

Have the insurance company call the insured and weasel out of them that they have insurance when they aren't supposed to admit it, and after gathering that artifact, have them hacked.

I guess you don't remember those days when a company would work you to death and then put life insurance down on you so when you did die, they'd profit.
I'd kind of like them to make their podcasts totally open (i.e., like every other non-exclusive podcast), with a proviso that their original podcasts cannot be made available through any app that shares exclusive for-pay content. That is, you can listen to an Apple Original Podcast(tm) on not only Apple Podcasts, but Overcast, Castro, Pocketcasts, etc., but not through Spotify or Luminary.

And, yes, I recognize that'd be kind of a jerk move, but I'm okay with being a jerk in this context.
While it’s fair that the author is angry at the keyboard, it isn’t fair to:

* Expect Apple’s Butterfly keyboard to be perfect in the first iteration (2016 models were the first ones to get them).

* Argue that the butterflies in '18/'19 notebooks are the same as the '16 one.

The '18 MBP’s keyboards have fixed the issues, Apple nailed it.
While the '16/'17 MBP’s keybord issues are a real problem, the fuzz about the '18 MBP’s keyboard reliance is just noise from some of the common anti-Apple people. (I have used all three models, and the difference coming from the silicone cover is real. I have yet to see any semi-failing or stiff keys in the '18 model, after one full (dirty) use of them.)

(Aside from the fact that this blog post adds no value about the MBPs,) People really shouldn’t be assuming things about the butterfly keyboards.
This reads like a typical blockchain non-sense hype article. Before you even go down the road of comparing sia to S3, what about some unbiased benchmarks? Show us the 99.999999999% durability, the pretty much unlimited bandwidth, the single digit milli-second latencies, the practically unlimited capacity.

If you want to compare Sia to anything, compare it to Dropbox or OneDrive. S3 was made for an entirely different purpose and Sia can't even remotely compete with it.

As a personal data store? Maybe. But wait until this thing becomes more popular and hackers start making a mess. Will be interesting to see how stable this "fully decentralized" network is, once it gets the full attention from bad actors as all the cloud providers.

I concur, that is what mine looks like. I work indoors, and out and its never even remotely looked as dirty as the one in the article.

Maybe all these folks saying keyboards always break and that that amount of dirt is nothing are the ones abusing them so much and needing replacements. My MBP is about 20 months old, i work on it 8-10 hours a day 5-6 days a week and i have had no problems with it whatsoever.

I had a co-worker who had Palmoplantar hyperhidrosis(extremely excessive sweating of the hands). his keyboards were the grossest id ever seen, he used mechanical keyboards specifically and still had to replace them more than once a year... so nothing is bomb proof.
"Patented technique" sounds pretty damn processed to me.

Just replace "cocoa beans" with "sugar cane" and read it again.
If you have been able to access that data, chances are someone else has too. And the data might as well be considered as having leaked already. I wonder if the right course of action would be to send it to haveibeenpwned.

I was told a couple years ago that the international live viewing audience for a world triathlon series race was approximately 40 million.

there's a whole lot of television markets out there that have very different tastes to US audiences.
Used this in the past to allow Kickstarter backers to access their pledges (set shipping address etc.). We only had emails which meant that ownership of the email identified them already as the sole owner of the pledge. There would have been no benefit to ask them to create an additional account. It actually had the benefit that we could control transfer of ownership because people couldn't simply give up their email to others to sell their pledge. They had to get in contact with our support to change the email.

Worked really well, I would do it again if the terms allow it. But I think as everything this is a case by case decision.
"Many vegetarians don't eat animals because they feel pain not because they are alive, were that the case they would eat animals that died of old age."

I don't understand what you are saying. You seem to be saying that many vegetarians don't eat animals that died naturally...for what reason?
Unfortunately it's incredibly difficult to become fully anonymous. Yelp can infer who you are by things like your home address (a few searches to see how far away restaurants are, for instance)

This Wikipedia article has a few examples https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Data_re-identification
That’s what i do !! Of course, its because my msi key keyboard (which was amazing) now has a bunch of keys that do not work (e, x, z - the first is the most used letter of the alphabet, the other i use constantly when doing VR and using vim (i replaced x by vd, but yanking had to be remapped).

For a while it was just x and y so i could copy paste from abc.xyz. But that started seriously hurting my fingers after a while. When the e broke, i decided to get an external keyboard. Though now i need a suitecase to move it around (17in gamer laptop + huge charger + external keyboard, kill me), it works great !!

(Also, right ctrl does not work either, but mine is mapped to caps lock).

My friend has an msi as well and same keys have started failing. Quick googling and i found a lot of msi laptops have (had?) this problem, though msi doesnt care. I cannot wait to have some money to get myself a new laptop. Its a shame though, this keyboard was amazing. Too bad it died in less than 2 years....
I’ve been witnessing a masterclass in this at work lately. One of the faculty I work with has a habit of jumping in on people when they’re talking. One of our new faculty simple refuses to spot when the other person jumps in—-just simply keeps taking over the interrupter. Doesn’t speak up, doesn’t alter their cadence, simply continues to talk. It’s amazing.
I'm genuinely surprised that manufacturers still make premium-priced laptops as ugly as the X1 Carbon. Its design looks like it was ripped from 2005. The latest XPS models are not bad, though.
I think it's being up-voted because it does add something to the discussion: continued prevalence.

I think it is highlighting market dysfunction: the 2015 MacBook was superior, and currently there is no market alternative, purely because someone in a sufficiently powerful position was able to make a decision against the interests of their customers, and then stick to it.

I have no doubt that the market will eventually correct itself (Ubuntu on a Razer Blade might well be my personal answer), but I think posts like this have a place in highlighting that we are still waiting for a solution and a major amount of pain and frustration is the result.
It's not only car drivers' fault. I've routinely seen scooter riders float through stop signs, go 15 on sidewalks, flip a u turn in a busy street, generally never signal, jump a set of steps on a scooter, do "brake burn" tricks, hop on one after a night at the bar, etc. The public can be pretty careless, and I'm frankly shocked this number is so low given the fuckery I've seen by the general public riding these. It's like a sense of caution, common sense, and rules of the road are just gone and they fee they are finally free to do what they want when they want.
Hi @kodeblah,

True, but note that the comparison only focuses on SQL (as it related to PostgreSQL) features and not any DB-specific features.

The YugaByte DB specific pieces are not included as well - for example, support for YCQL (Cassandra-compatible) and YEDIS (Redis-compatible) APIs to the DB.

Applicative Functors/Selective Applicative Functors should be more suitable to serialization than monads, because they do not contain lambdas and expose the underlying structure, allowing you to inspect,modify it, etc.:

I have two XPS 15s, one 2017 model and one from 2019 - I've never had the power cable slip out and I use them both heavily in a variety of locations.
I used to try this with my manager when he would interrupt me. Sometimes we would go on talking over each other for a full 10 ish seconds. That's a really really long time for two people to talk over each other and not stop. So uncomfortable, but I found it so rude for him to talk over me and he did it so frequently that in the end I just refused to stop talking. I'm naturally shy and soft spoken, so it's not that I was going on too long! He never seemed to get the message, so I left. But I burned out at that company and have never been able to care about my job since. Now I hate everything about my job and can barely be bothered to touch the keyboard, that's what it has been like for the last 4 years.
I was hoping for a list of real, scientifically accepted out of place artifacts, like the Anau seal. Or Göbekli Tepe.
One thing that is hard is that you cannon control the impact of your words. You can influence it. With skill and perceptiveness you can strongly influence it. But you cannot 100% prevent someone from interpreting your words as an attack any more than the driver of a car can 100% guarantee he’ll never fatally collide with anyone.

Good resources for understanding how to control the impact of your words include the book Difficult Conversations and others from the Harvard Negotiation Project.
I've been on a number of silent retreats that focus on contemplation, usually prayer. Of those the vast majority have been 3-day retreats which begin on a Friday after dinner and end on a Sunday with a lunch. They're a great introduction to silence and meditation and can really allay insecurities people have about taking on a longer retreat. It's where I recommend starting if you're new to retreats.

I've also done 8-day retreats and 10-day retreats. These are my favorites. As someone else in the comments said, it takes a few days for silence to break through your barriers. There's a whole bunch of science on the 3-day effect which seems related to my experience. For me it works like this: day one I'm excited and my mind doesn't shut up. I have a million ideas floating through and I try to grasp them all and to remember the "fruits" of this time for later when I can talk. Early on in my retreats I would journal furiously. I filled a moleskine notebook each day, front and back of pages. It was insane, and also counterproductive. I was taking the dialogue away from my tongue and moving it onto the page. Now I don't journal at all, or I'll do so only every few days and briefly. Even so, day one is a wasted day. It's like my mind is flipping out craving contact. I just need to let it run its course.

On day 2 I have intermittent moments of calm when I can sense the silence underneath everything. I try to spend this day in solitude if possible. It helps to speed up the transition. Remember, silence in a retreat isn't about sound, it's about communication. Don't make eye contact or gestures at others. You're not being silent.

Day 3 for me is when I'm finally at rest. I listen to the little movements of my mind. It's a great time for contemplative prayer, or mindfulness meditation. If you've read anything about Ignatian spirituality, this is where the real enlightening stuff hits. Days 3-7 are a blur of wonder that I never want to end.

That being said, I've also done 30 days in silence and it is there that I'd use the term "life changing." How life changing was it for me? It led to me deciding to leave religious life to get married and start a family. It was not in rebellion to the style of life I was living, but as a result of it. It took me 30 days of contemplation in silence to finally find the answer to the questions that had been bouncing around in my head for a decade.

Would I go again? Certainly.
Conflict over language and religion predates capitalism by thousands of years. If a conflict looks similar to those pre-capitalism conflicts, and the situation in Indonesia does, it’s probably linguistic and religious conflict, not capitalistic. (You also seem very confused about what “capitalism” means. “Capitalism” doesn’t just mean business or profit seeking. Feudal lords and mercantilists made a profit. Capitalism by definition requires voluntary exchanges, which don’t happen in master-slave relationships. Again, slavery and serfdom predate capitalism by thousands of years. This is a definitional aspect of capitalism. Indeed, Adam Smith’s wealth of nations was expressly a critique of the then-prevalent system of mercantilism.)

You would willingly subject yourself to a keyboard condom? Those things feel so bad to type on.

Iirc macbooks also have issues with those messing up the screen. At the very least, every macbook with a keyboard condom that I have seen in real life had the keyboard outline quite visibly imprinted on the screen surface.

In fact if you scroll down on that amazon page, the product description has a link to a 'screen imprint protector' (a loose paper-linke piece of material) designed specially to protect against that issue.

If you put a condom on it and have to carry around a loose screen protected and put it on every time you close the lid, then its kind of sad to say that there's not a gigantic issue with the machine or that that's a trivial solution.

Also I've also read stories of people using those keyboard condoms and still having the keyboard break.
I'll believe it when they're both independently audited and found to be measurably better. Apple is incredibly secretive so although they might not end up in headlines, there's no guarantee they're any better than Google.
A customer of mine is using a demo server to demonstrate the service to customers. It's a service about money so using the production system with fake data would be difficult, especially for the interfaces with external services. The demo server is seeded with fake data. Google for faker and the language you're using and you'll likely find a good generator library.
An SLA could technically go beyond refunding payments into payout out fines.
No, because Tesla is in the spotlight. It's meant more good and bad press than they'd otherwise have, the majority of which being overwhelming praise.

Stop looking a gift horse in the mouth.

Anyway, your question wasn't would the media write about it, it was would you react the same way. An accusation of personal bias, which gets handed out like candy on Tesla threads. It's toxic.
AntennaPod is a fantastic FOSS podcast app for android. It doesn't have in-app purchases, advertisements or other such misfeatures.

There is a speed setting that speeds things up without sounding distorted. You can toggle between a configurable list of speeds (I switch between 1.0x and 1.15x depending on the podcast). I just wish it would remember different speeds for each podcast -- currently the speed behaves as a global setting.

The UI is set up so that when you download a new episode it goes into the reproduction queue. I don't think it has playlists but in my experience being able to reorder the episodes in the queue is all I need because I rarely listen to the same episode twice.
Something interesting about the author's choice of the iPad Pro as a replacement productivity machine I don't think gets enough mention is that the iPad is one of the only modern computers of any sort with a 4:3 screen.

Closer to square maximizes screen area for a given maximum or diagonal dimension, 4:3 is close to the human field of view, and in general, I find it to be a more suitable aspect ratio for most tasks than 16:9 or 16:10.

I'm pretty frustrated and a bit confused by the dominance of 16:9. The fact that it's the standard for TV shouldn't imply that it becomes the standard for laptops.
I don't understand what you're saying. Why couldn't the government accept taxes in e.g. gold as well as USD?
Thanks, but I know how to work with dual quaternions. I’m looking for more of a higher level mathematical approach, which would explain why dual quaternions (or dual complex numbers in 2d) are capable of describing Euclidean rigid motions.
UpCodes (YC S17) is hiring engineers to automate compliance for architects
I don't disagree with any of this. And if we're talking early stage, founder-led startups, I'll grant that this may not apply. It's most relevant to large, board-led corporations, and it's also not necessarily zero-sum: it's up to regulators to set the rules such that sociopathic businesses benefit their shareholders and their customers.

My proviso that businesses tend to act like sociopaths _even if no one who works there is a sociopath_ is important.

Suppose I go to pick up coffee, but on the way to the stand I see a homeless man and decide he could use the money more than me, so I give him the money instead of getting coffee. Everyone wins: homeless man gets money, I get a feeling of satisfaction that is presumably better than the coffee.

Now suppose instead of getting myself coffee, I was actually getting coffee for my boss, who'd given me $5 for it. Suppose that if either I or my boss had been getting _our own_ coffee, we'd choose to give the homeless man our money instead.

The only scenario where he doesn't get our money is when I'm acting on behalf of my boss: my boss gave me a task, and I can't choose to give my boss's money away -- not even if that's what I would do in my boss's shoes, and not even if that's what my boss would do.

When I act on behalf of my boss, I'm less charitable than either of us individually.

Cacao pulp is delicious. It is interesting that we use the bitter seeds from the fruit, and mostly throw out the tasty pulp. If you are in San Francisco you can get cacao fruit smoothies from Dandelion Chocolate. I hope the pulp starts showing up in more food products instead of going to waste.
