Too many people that try to take control of such investments fall prey to basic errors. They see a crash happening so pull their money out to safer investments, but it's already mostly too late so they have locked in losses. Then they see the market rally, so they re-invest their money in the market, but they already missed the start of the rally so have missed much of the potential gains.
That's odd, and I'd be more inclined to blame a plugin than Firefox itself. I'm Firefox all day, every day, and my job revolves around Facebook, without that sort of issue.

Debugging fancy JS frameworks in firefox (for me, unexperienced js user) is more painful than in chrome, but debugging js in webbrowser is pain anyway
Where are all the comments about racial diversity coming from? There's a single article mentioning that _using_ race is a contentious issue - not that this score uses race.

Further down in the article, it lists what the scores are based on:

> Those factors are college attendance, household structure, median family income, housing stability, education levels and crime.

Which all sound like tests of the living conditions and environment that the students had to learn within - and if those strongly correlate with race, then maybe there's other issues that need to be addressed
At the time of this posting, the link above this one was "China’s CCTV network took just 7 minutes to capture BBC reporter (2017)." I find that very ironic, especially because the comments inside are calling China a surveillance state.

What's more, many of the Leafs are still under factory warranty when they're sold for a fraction of their new MSRP.

I bought my 2011 Leaf when it was just about three years old and had somewhere in the neighborhood of 22k miles on it and paid somewhere around $6k.

I figured it was a pretty safe buy because the car still had plenty of miles left on the warranty.

I never had to make use of that warranty though; truly the best fit & finish of any car I've owned. Reliable & by far the best value of any car I've ever purchased.

After eight years, capacity is running down... somewhere around 40 miles per charge in the summer now... but that's perfect for my use-case. I'm looking forward to many more years with minimal maintenance costs. Once the battery capacity gets low enough, I'll spring for a new battery.
> Educate yourself. You don't need to know the intricacies of how markets operate, but a little financial understanding is, I believe, a must for everyone.

I second this. Lot's of good advice here about letting the 401k ticking along. In the meantime start building some knowledge. It may take a bit of time but it will be worth it. But the basics should be accessible to everyone. There are many sources of information (of varying quality). Youtube, blogs, financial section of major newspapers, MOOCs, and last but not least books

I expect costs on my Tesla to be about one set of tires / 2 years. I am hard on them and they cost about 400/tire installed. When you consider they is essentially the only ongoing cost to a daily driven car that performs like a legitimate super car in a straight line it is pretty amazing though. I change to winter tires in the winter though. Still I wear down one set of tires per year approximately.

From talking to MS devs at conferences it feels like Skype is internally considered a dead end these days. Skype for Business (i.e. Lync) is already being replaced with Microsoft Teams.

I'm not sure if MS is actually planning to replace Skype with anything or to just keep it around until nobody uses it anymore but all the recent updates felt rather half-hearted. It's still used for video calls in the consumer space apparently but I would guess that's an aging demographic as most kids and young adults seem to be using various mobile apps instead.

I make a point to avoid watching recommended videos the exception being I tend to use youtube for researching products and recommended videos are actually helpful there.

My youtube process is to go straight to the subs page daily, add all the videos to a 'watch later' playlist* so whenever I go to youtube I always have a curated list of just for me content and I don't get sucked down the rabbit hole.

*not the watch later option because you cant change the order of those ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I'd kill for a marker on the subs page that said 'last visited'!

I don't think anyone is arguing for "never writing good messages"; the point is that you can have both good commit messages and good comments, both of which are useful for different reasons, and you don't need to give up one to have the other.
As others have pointed out, it may be worth looking into whether or not your reasons for using Chromium for the devtools are simply habit.

Speaking for myself, I'm in the other camp. I never really ditched Firefox for Chrome except for a brief period[0]. I returned to Firefox back when it was still called "Firefox (Not Responding)". Other than the renaming (/s), it -- generally -- flies. The devtools do what I need them to do, however, I used to hop back and forth from Chromium to FF a lot more.

So I'll be re-evaluating things, again, myself -- just in the other direction. :)

[0] I used Chrome for about two years after its release because Firefox wouldn't work with an internal application. It was just easier to use a single browser.

It's not really about that -- most shops don't support the latest version of Opera or Brave except by accident since they're Chromium backed. If they introduced a breaking incompatbility there is very little chance we would carry patches for them.

'supported browsers' are browsers that you lose customers if you don't support. You don't lose customers by telling them to switch to Chrome. Firefox's market share is small and the number of people who exclusively use Firefox and refuse to switch is vanishingly small.

Do people in the US really drive to through the country that often? I guess people drive maybe 2000-3000 km a year for holidays, e.g. to skiing resorts in winter or to Italy in summer, but even that isn't average.

I'd say most of the drives are commutes to work and shopping.

Right, but that's the whole point. You don't get to just live on the lam because you are rich. You have to actually pull it off. If you wait until they throw you in jail for contempt of court, it's too late. At that point your choices are comply or rot in jail. You can say that's a special feature of Bitcoin, but it isn't. It's the same with gold bullion or cash that you've hidden.
If this implementation was a bottleneck in anything, people would have complained, as they have in other areas in Python. There are performance improvements in places people complain about all the time.

Besides you missed the part where this is used in other speed-critical places, like protobuf, the K&P implementation, etc.
At least for the last one: I can’t recommend enough just going for it, not being afraid of getting it wrong. The health benefits of weight training are very well documented, it leads to a longer life and slower aging, which will give you more time for the other topics! And you’ll feel better to boot. Give it a go, treat it like a puzzle, you can do it. It’s a skill you continuously hone. After you’ve learned the basics it can be done under 1h per session, and 3 times per week is already huge. Even 1/week is good! :)

Good luck!
Tesla model 3 owner, 14k miles. Just rotated the tires, that's all. I guess I need to have the battery coolant changed in 2 years.

Ugh you're right, it wouldn't work then.
For what it's worth I was mostly commenting on the "the poster child of why async/await was made" comment above with the idea that async/await wouldn't necessarily be needed to make the code cleaner. But as you pointed out, in this case it wouldn't work. I'm sorry if the commment came out as wankery.
Don't know where you live but a regular yearly service with oil and cabin filter change is around €200 for a basic ICE car at a dealership in Austria. €290 for a Tesla would definitely be cheaper here.
The Quantum version of Firefox (and Firefox Developer) did not come out this morning. You likely just got a routine build update.
Tweeted them about this, their response: "Request/vote for this feature on our community site", with the following link: https://skype.uservoice.com/forums/914527-welcome-to-skype-i...
Today updated to 70.b1, according to the About Firefox Developer Edition window.

It has a "What's new" link next to the version number, but it links to a 404: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/70.0beta/releasenotes

EDIT - I put in a bug report on the release notes link, response says that release notes will come out next week
For comparison - also a small city car, VW Polo 2016, 1.2L TSI - so far(3 years in), we only paid for a single service(two initial ones were free) - £159, plus £20/year in tax. So a total cost of ownership(except for petrol of course) in those three years is barely over £200. We didn't even buy winter tyres for it, which I normally do for my other cars.

Wait Chrome doesn't need it right? I think the issue here is a codec no?

There's even people that have hangouts working in pidgin because it just uses webrtc.

I was trying to debug potential webrtc issues with skype web for pidgin.

It's one thing to say we wanted to do this and that but I don't see you guys reaching out to browsers upstream at all to work on a solution that doesn't need a plug-in.

Personally nowadays I just recommend everyone not to use Skype and many of my friends do the same despite being what we all used to use first.
I mean, you can get a Tesla Model 3 long range for $47k that goes 310 miles on a charge and gains 200 miles on a half hour recharge at a supercharger. That seems... like more driving than I'd really ever do. (half hour is super easy to blow when you go pee, grab a coffee, check your email and social media... and keep in mind that's after like 4 hours of driving)

why not both? income and race. suddenly poor white men will become a protected class. for the uninitiated, this should make you realized that affirmative action only helps the wealthy members of each demographic. we also should add a citizenship criteria.

i do think a better way of measuring wealth is needed. maybe the amount of money you are deducting from your taxes. nobody who knows finance, aka the wealthy, has a large amount of taxable income.
I can't tell from this whether the Sacklers are being contrite and genuinely sorry for what's happened, or they've simply decided this is the best way to preserve whatever assets they have. I'm guessing they'll still be mega-rich whatever happens.

After 20 years, I'd expect it to be different. We have a '99 Honda CRV, and a significant chunk of the money we've paid for maintenance in the 12 yrs we've had it has been for the exhaust system. Over time, on any car, brakes will eventually need replacing, electrical bits will fail and need replacing, bits of your suspension will need replacing, and so on.

I'm guessing daily commute from the suburbs on the freeway is common in the US. In Europe, population is more densely packed in cities, so commutes are shorter and can often be done via public transit. For example, I've been averaging 5k miles per year in Poland, and most of it is vacations and other long range trips.

I recommend reading about the Permanent Portfolio:

The permanent portfolio was constructed by Harry Browne to be what he believed would be a safe and profitable portfolio in any economic climate.

Think on how much cheaper rides are with Uber, Lyft, or any similar service, compared with an ordinary taxi cab. The reason for that is that you're splitting the fare with a venture capitalist.

The reason why VCs were willing to do that was that they anticipated that Uber (in particular) would monopolize ride-sharing. After that, they intended to replace the drivers (who are still the most expensive part of the ride) with self-driving cars. I spoke with a Google employee, about two years ago, who told me that everyone in the self-driving business hoped to have some big advances ready by 2021.

Turns out that autonomous vehicles are a lot harder than anticipated, so the ride-share companies have had to pivot. That explains Uber Eats.

As sketchy as Uber has been, I have no sympathy for the traditional taxi cab companies. They refused to adapt in the face of a new situation staring them in the face. The New York City medallion-owners just expected to continue farming from the cab drivers with zero effort. Parasites.

I spoke with a guy who had recently come to America and needed a ride. His friends couldn't drive him, for some reason, so they tried to arrange a cab. While they bickered, trying to find a cab company phone number, this guy downloaded the Uber app, punched in his credit card info, and his ride showed up before his friends had finished finding a cab company.

Nevertheless, Uber is a sketchy company and desperately needs regulation.
Small engines generally need more service than larger ones. This is mostly because large engines are not pushed as hard relative to the size because the buyers want a reliable engine.

A tractor with a 600 horsepower engine would have around 19 liters. GM can get the same 600 horsepower out of 6 liters. I know motorcycle mechanics who can get that power from 1.5 liters. Of course the motorcycle mechanic will tell you upfront that you will have to completely rebuild the engine every 40 hours. GM knows that even though the engine can deliver 600 horsepower it will only do that for a few seconds and then have plenty of rest time at much lower power output to cool off as a result they can get several thousand miles. Tractor manufactures know that their customers will use 600 horsepower continuously all day, everyday with no breaks to cool down so they build for that spec.

Point is I expect the engine in this car is designed to not be as reliable because of the weight/size vs reliability trade offs they can make. It you mostly use the car in electric mode with a few long trips it won't matter overall. If you typically take long trips (without stopping to recharge) get a car with a larger engine.
Uber is charging less than fair market rates for the services it provides. It's using money from other sources to prop up parts of the business that can't support themselves.
The PT did not bring anything new to the Brazilian corruption. Dirty corruption schemes have existed in Brazil for centuries. The media threw the spotlight on corruption in the PT government because it was a convenient time for those who wanted a right-wing government. Great schemes were discovered that were previously covered up. Most of the blame was attributed to the PT, but these are criminal practices that have happened in all governments and, arguably in the name of governability (to be able to approve projects), Lula continued that.

Joesley would seem to be very interested in blaming the PT in his statements: in addition to getting out of jail, he would help pull a leftist party out of power. From January 2nd to August 2019, the value of JBS shares almost tripled, breaking consecutive records. Coincidence?

And in the last presidential elections, the favorite in the polls was Lula, unbeatably. He was soon convicted without substantial evidence, based only on testimony from people who had personal interests in the conviction. The lawsuit had a trial in record time. The judge who convicted Lula was named Jair Bolsonaro's Minister of Justice.
Chats and voice messages began to leak shortly thereafter, initially through reporter Gleen Greenwald. Conversations between Judge Moro and the prosecutors, showing their partiality, collaboration and mutual interest in the conviction of Lula.

It seems very difficult to believe that it is PT's fault. And looking at the history of JBS stock value, it seems to me that JBS's meteoric growth is happening during the Bolsonaro government, and at the expense of the Amazon rainforest.

I have a son in G&T program in Queens so this has some relevance for me. This is a purely political move by De Blasio, which I think will face strong objection and, I hope, will fail miserably.

Now there are people who think that black kids will magically become better students because they sit next to high achievers. But as a former NYC student I would tell them that it is, sadly, not the case.

Black kids need additional help, why not set up schools where kids, black, white, yellow, brown, get the extra discipline and help that they need. No, that is no joke and it will only work if these school have the same high expectation and concomitant resources.

The problem in the end is that there is not enough resources and political will to help these kids. Naturally, the parents who are resourceful will find way to help their own kids succeed. The issue is how to do it for every kid.
Of course, when it comes to the rich and powerful, no mention of jail time.
