"In Germany, the population is more concerned about privacy. Despite being targeted by a string of communist terrorist attacks in the 1970s and 80s, it maintained an open system, without any faregates at any train station (including subways); fare enforcement in German cities relies on proof of payment with roving inspectors. "

A lot of systems have faregates that work also using anonymous tickets or fare cards.

But kudos to Germany for using such a system, I cannot imagine it working without massive fare evasion in many other countries.
You're right, I just get really annoyed when people take flippant attitudes in situations that you'd think would elicit some empathy.
My 4 runs at around 60C idle and hits 80C easily without overclocking (just regular loads). That is a bit too much for a tiny device (and a tiny plastic case).

I highly recommend binging the back catalog of Hardcore History[1] if you haven't already. Yes, you have to pay for the older episodes, but it's a tremendous amount of really great content.

For many people that is true. I have significantly reduced my BMI and my BP actually went up. I do Keto+IF+Berberine and do 2 day FMD, soon to try 5 day FMD. My BP issues are likely due to calcification and inflammation related to metabolic syndrome. I have a blog where I am tracking this if you are curious. [1]

Are you talking about ORM? ORM is such a waste of time to learn as you switch to another language at one point, your time spent on ORM is gone and you don't even learn the underlying tech that is SQL.

Stick with SQL and you can keep that skill mostly the same across different SQL products. And obviously you will sooner or later hit some performance penalty when you start writing complex ORM and ORM starts spitting out SQL without thinking and then your only solution is to complain on GitHub issue as you can't solve it.
PostgreSQL underlies at least a plurality of SQL DBMS developments nowadays, specially for scale-out (distributed) projects.
Well the Unionization has received explicit protections in being fought for and even then it isn't liked in US companies at the corporate level to put it mildly - seen only as unmitigated downsides and something to avoid. But workers can all agree on wanting more wages or better working conditions even if they may argue on how they are distributed (fixed paygrades vs performancel.

Ethics protests aren't so enshrined for one. The views of ethics are often personal and ideologically entangled to some degree. Self selection has been more favored and the protests bring to mind the "obvious" but assailable objection "Why not just quit and associate with others more like-minded." It gets into messy areas of rights of association in ideal vs practice. Ideology isn't protected and is explicitly trumped by other areas like anti-discrimination laws.

Many can see "strawman" can of worms being opened (they may be reasonable in this case but what of successors) accepted as a norm without a sensible defined law or doctrine. There were the whole clerks refusing shall issue marriage licenses and nobody wants a situation disrupted by free rider "do nothing vegans in the slaughterhouse" or similar absurdities.

This isn't saying the current situation is ideal at all but that changes are non-trivial and there are reasons to suspect the precedent would be preferrable to most.
Ah right. 746W over 1 hour would be 746Wh.

prime-day-boycott: the day all tech companies realized amazon had them in their pockets with AWS

the day everyone woke up and realize the lies of multi-cloud. Everyone's architecture is naked, and tied to one particular provider.

if you can't flip a button and serve from other provider for the strike, you will also not be able to change when aws crashes, get slow or too expensive. Or what is more likely, slow unless you pay the aws-prime subscription ;)
I get an existential crisis when I read "niche implementation" in the context of one of the most important operating systems which changed computing forever and which is a reference implementation for just about any open standard imaginable and that on an IT site full of IT professionals.

> I don't understand the desire to stay with a company and accept paychecks while simultaneously publicly denouncing and leading protests against them.

I do not understand why it should be preferable to say "oh well, nothing to be done, time to quit" rather than be a force for change. The former is easy, but it does little to correct systemic problems that affect many of your peers.

Also, you make "accept paychecks" sound like you're accepting some sort of favor. Paychecks are not charity; they are compensation. You produce something of value, and you receive something of value in return.
Them being in the base kits they sell implies otherwise. That's my frustration.

Given that your other posts are screeching about "stuck up women", perhaps one should surmise that your problem is not "democracy in the workplace." Which, while we're at it, is a misrepresentation of worker representation in company administration--a phenomenon that does work, as countries like Germany demonstrate.

Why CSS Is Difficult
But there's a tremendous amount of work done in scaling UIs between mobile and desktop viewports on the web that Flash could never easily achieve, and most native frameworks are still struggling with today.

Keep in mind that Flash was effectively abandoned/deprecated. Again, there's nothing first principles here. The greater effectiveness of MacOS in dealing with scaling UIs is a demonstration of this.

> If the developer experience becomes a lot more like developing against a desktop UI framework

... then the mobile experience is crap, yeah.

Credit where credit is due. Look at what Apple has achieved in terms of this. In a way, the argument tactic is straw-manning here. Instead of picking a few glaring errors from past frameworks, shouldn't we be looking at the best of what existing frameworks can do, and try to build that?

Rocket List 2019: Top London Startups to Work For
Hey all. Yes using DNS is straightforward to do verified claims like this as well.

They require a website to return a public key to anyone who asks. And if the website generates a claim signed by its corresponding private key, then presumably (if they kept that key safe) you can trust that the signing party meant to endorse some claim.

A user’s identity is actually the sum total of verified claims about them, from other parties.

Those parties, in turn, have identities. With DNS, they are public identities provided by nameservers. The nameservers have identities via being issued IP numbers. Many of these identities also contain routing information for how to actually get a request routed to a specific server program running on the internet (or a relay/hub that will deliver the message to a client who will eg decrypt it).

With Javascript, we can take advantage of DNS in an even more straightforward way. Simply use postMessage to an iframe running on the user’s personal app domain. The origin in the browser is guaranteed by https, DNS and IP. The trusted computing base is the OS and browser. You can do much more than authentication with it.

I would say that we do NOT actually neeed DNS though. For example, the domain inside the iframe can be intercepted by a cordova application, and represent the LOCAL CLIENT ON YOUR PHONE. No servers needed at all. You can provide your personal data to those peers who need it, without having a “public” identity.

Your identity still consists of verified claims by other entities, but in this case the entity is the app running on your phone(s), not a website running on servers. Sure, it didn’t register a “real” domain name with the federated DNS system - and sure, it didn’t get a certificate for the https with the federated “certificate authority” PKI system - but you have previously communicated the public key to your friends in a trusted side channel, and can always prove it is still you via an interactive chat or videoconference. So they trust the identity provider running locally on your devices, and no servers needed.

The only question becomes how to route messages to you. Friends can leave them on various computers all over the internet, redundantly, encrypted with the public key. They just have to bootstrap the initial addressess of mailboxes somehow. This can happen when you send the public key in the side channel, but it DOES require some sort of global network like DNS or a DHT or Apple Notifications, some sort of singleton that both parties can reach. This is the ONLY need for it — for deliverability, NOT security.
Using them to monitor abuse does not require making them public. It just requires making them available to those who claim they were abused, or if they did not survive their estate or whoever would have had medical power of attorney for them or someone similar.

While I don't know about the Pi4, I've found that heatsinks are absolutely required for my uses of the Pi3s. In every situation where I've used a 3 I've had problems with them thermal-throttling down to a basically useless clock speed or just straight-up overheating and blowing. And I'm not overclocking. I don't feel safe using them in embedded applications without _at least_ a heatsink on the main CPU. My workbench Pi also has a small 5V fan on it.

Are the 4s different somehow? Or has every 3 I've purchased (somewhere around a dozen) been defective? (I don't have this issue with the Zeros.)
>This is "you're holding it wrong" logic. Nope. I did cycle regularly, got my bike fitted, and all that. But there's no getting away from the fundamental physics of pressure = force / area.

Nope sorry it isn't the "your holding it wrong logic". If you do any physical activity that you are unused to you will have slight pains etc. I recently started Thai boxing again and loans behold my body hurt after the workout. Pretending otherwise is simply denying reality.

> Not having to slalom around the potholes comes in handy. Yes you can work around not having it.

Unless the pothole is massive then it is usually moving a foot to the left or right, hardly a slalom. if you can't avoid it then you can either just unweight the front wheel by moving your weight back slightly or just hop it.

None of these are particularly difficult to do (except for maybe the bunny hop, but potholes are rarely that large).

> This is backwards - a derailleur's parts are inherently exposed and vulnerable, an unmaintained derailleur is always going to fail faster than a good-quality hub. The Rohloff recommends an oil change every 5000km, but in fact people ride them for 10000 or 15000 without problems. Derailleurs make sense for enthusiasts who do their own maintenance or racers who want the lightest weight gearing possible, but for commuting or touring they're only used because of price, and the price of hubs will keep coming down.

No it isn't backwards. Derailleur gearing has had over 110 years of development and improvement. They are cheap, reliable and easy to fix and almost never go wrong. Typically only the cassette and chain need replacements (and that is after years of abuse) and a 8-9 speed chain is £10-15 and a 8/9 speed cassette is a few pounds. They take maybe 10-20 minutes to change.

I am sure the Rohloff is better but that is like comparing a Rolls Royce to a Ford Fiesta. Sure the Rolls Royce is better and will last 20 life times but it costs 100 times and the cheap Ford will do most of what you want. If we compare Shimano hub gears (which have a terrible reputation) they are more expensive and less reliable and give you less gears.

What you don't seem to understand is that just as I said at the start just because something is technically better on paper it doesn't actually make it better in practice. Sure I am sure hubs are better for most on paper, but much like old languages like Fortran, Shimano, Campagnolo and a bunch of other companies have been working out the quirks in the design since the 1930s.

I would say the whole conversation comes down to the"Worse is better" principle.

> That seems a bit ironic considering you said the above right after suggesting that the tent is actually better than the factory for the purpose.

When taken out of context, yes.

The factory comment I was responding to was questioning why factory workers would request to work in the tent. I was suggesting that it might be due to the pleasant climate in which the tent is located. I then acknowledged my ignorance to typical working conditions and how they might factor into that equation.

This thread revolves around a someone admonishing Tesla by comparing one fiction to another fiction at a competitor. Then, when the fiction is pointed out, the commentator again establishes they didn't read the article and then suggest we should still admonish Tesla for unspecified reasons.
Yes, I was disagreeing with the thing I quoted. Given that saltminer was contrasting Tim's desire to "force everyone" to use his launcher with Valve's wishes for the world, I don't think it was uncharitable to read it as an accusation of something more nefarious than run-of-the-mill capitalism.
I'd rather have the price cut than the tax credit it they are for the same nominal amount ($1,875). First, you don't pay taxes or licensing on that amount and second if you financed the car you don't pay interest on that amount.

This isn’t necessarily true for your smartphone, because some ARM CPUs don’t do the speculative execution that Spectre/Meltdown exploit. For example, CPU in the raspberry pi 3 didn’t have these vulnerabilities which I assume is why the parent was asking this question.

Insofar as I can recollect, sort of, at least if you infer what happens when the space between words or lines is too large. The gist of the issue for a dyslexic reader, as I understood it anyway, is a focus problem.

Picture an ellipse of sorts over the word you're trying to focus on as you read. A dyslexic person will struggle to get the ellipse on that word, and instead gobbles up part or all of the text around it (parts of the words before and after, and parts of the words above and below) - or not enough of it? - leading to fatigue and slow read speed.

If memory serves me well:

- By increasing the space enough, you make it simpler for a dyslexic reader to focus on each word, improving reading speed. (Anecdotally I find web typography more readable with slightly increased line height and word spacing, so methinks it's not just dyslexic readers who benefit.)

- By increasing the space too much, however, you make it harder for readers (dyslexic or not) to follow the flow of text (words become disconnected, if you will, as you've experienced in the second example), and that ends up degrading the reading speed.

- Every reader (dyslexic or not) has an optimal spacial arrangement.

You can kind of see the effect in action by increasing the line height, kerning, and word spacing in an html document. Increase either of those three too much and the text gets harder to read. Increase one or more of them slightly above the default values and the text will be more comfortable to read.
Why is modern JS (TS especially) not a "real programming language". I have never once been bitten by == vs === or the crazy automatic type conversions people use to demonstrate that JS is not a "real" programming language.

I especially don't understand why people would want to write a front-end in Go. React already provides a great front-end experience. If you're doing something that requires high-performance, then use c++ compiled to wasm or something similar. But why Go? It's not as performant as C++ and I don't think it provides a UI development experience as good as React.
