Anecdata point: A while back I worked for an agency where the _client_ had signed a $600k/yr contract for Adobe CQ, which was completely unused for the ~2 years I knew about it... Expensive suits and haircuts, and "meetings" on golf courses and in expensive restaurants, and the client shows up with zero notice saying "here's our Adobe CQ license!" and then rejected all the estimates for migrating their site from Alfresco to CQ... (And I just looked, it's now 5 years later and the client is onto at least the third agency since the one I was at - and the site is on Sitecore... I wouldn't be _too_ surprised to find out they're still paying for that CQ license... Either because they got signed up for a 5 or 109 year "deal"m or because they get re-schmoozed by Adobe's sale team every year...)
> Over-the-shoulder pair programming: I've not found a good solution to this. Screen sharing is abou half of the problem. Being able to point, grab the keyboard, etc. is the harder part to solve. VSCode live sharing is about the best option I've found, everything else has been close to useless.

tmate is great for this so long as you're okay being 100% in-terminal. One person runs tmate which basically opens tmate and gives you an ssh url. Then everyone else just sshes in and is in the same tmate session - identical to if you both sshed into a shared host and entered a mutual tmate session. It has a hosted version but can also be self-hosted.
For what it's worth, per the article: "...the manager of Shadybrook Senior Apartments found Lamo's body. He was lying on a pile of clothes in the bedroom and when she saw the blood pooling under his fingernails, she pulled a medical alert cord in the apartment."

So I would guess he wasn't that far along, relatively speaking, if it wasn't immediately obvious at a glance.
The post I am replying to claims that the "20% poorest" in the US have it better than middle-class Europeans which is such a ludicrous claim as to require posts like mine to provide the context of reality.

To your stuff about Sweden and refugees, income and wealth are related but separate concepts.

The legend of the lost continent of Mu
Last time I've checked, kissing involves the mouth, at the least, so if the logo was some sort of play on the KISS, it fails anatomically. On top of that, there is no connection between the logo and the product which is what probably sets people off more than the content.

If it's by some ways a Rorschach case (doubt it), then it fails again as a logo, which should be clear and concise and aligned with the product. If no such alignment can be done graphically, then a text oriented logo would be far better.

I've been doing branding for a big part of my life, consider taking the suggestions from the other commentators as well in revising the logo if this is to be a serious endeavor; think of the various cultures and settings this would be seen.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Legal_issues_in_airsoft#China

"In People's Republic of China, despite the common belief that airsoft is outright banned, the official stance on airsoft is that it is technically just "tightly controlled".[13] However, the control standards are so strict and the punishments are so heavy-handed, that involvement in the sport (regarded as "wargame" or "live action CS") is considered too impractical for common individuals in Mainland China."

"Law enforcement is also highly arbitrary, and many of the merchandises confiscated are actually either non-functional props or well below the replica limit"
During the US 2008 and 2012 elections, the amount of content manipulation and botting was ridiculous. Nobody seemed to care or even mention it after the fact.

Now that it could potentially push Trump to win, its a big problem.

I personally hope that this is still a big deal when a candidate that the media/owners of Reddit wants to win is using the exact same tactics.
These are similar risks to the Google Wing concept. The parachute has fewer risks of collision with the vehicle since the vehicle is nearby for a much shorter period of time and is not making a flightmode transition.

The issue is simply a matter of minimum required landing area. Hovering could be a little smaller than parachute delivery (16 ft), but still must have a "safe area" is approximately similar because the vehicle must hover without nearby obstructions.
You are correct, I didn’t know burglary was a specific intent law.
Bing Search Is Down
Has been returning zero results for most searches all day, with multiple friends from around the world having the same issue.

That’s also consistent with the pattern. 75% of Americans have either employer paid insurance or Medicare. For those people, premiums and out of pocket costs are on average less than the extra taxes they’d pay in Europe for health insurance: https://www.assembly.ca.gov/sites/assembly.ca.gov/files/Arch... (page 18, showing 5.2% of household income spent on premiums and out of pocket costs). (Note that France doesn’t have free healthcare. It has a significant 30% co-insurance which is usually covered by private insurance. Non-premium out of pocket costs, which comprise 2.1% of the 5.2% above in the US, are only a little lower in the US than in France.)

Now, because the US has a weaker safety net, some people fall into gaps where they make too much to qualify for Medicaid and not enough to have good health insurance, or go bankrupt despite having good health insurance. But that happens to a small percentage of the population. Most people do fine with their employer paid insurance or Medicare, and get to spend their extra money on more consumption.

As to free education. If US colleges were like French ones, we could have free college too: https://mises-media.s3.amazonaws.com/styles/max_1160/s3/spen.... We spend more government money in higher education, as a percentage of GDP, than France. We still have to charge people tuition because our colleges are far more opulent. Most French universities are what Americans would consider commuter schools. Focused on instruction rather than research with most students staying local and living at home. Even then, free college just isn’t that valuable of a benefit. The average tuition at a public school in the US is $10,000 a year. The total cost of a degree is $40-50,000. And remember, most Americans don’t get a college degree (and neither do most French.) Over a career, the value of tuition free college for the average American comes nowhere near the extra taxes and lower income they’d have in France.
I believe it is.

Not all of it may appeal to you, but if there are just a few points that help you become a better programmer then it's worth it.

Yes, it's either disingenuous or incredibly naive to ignore the outsourcing of materials-intensive activities to other countries, the most obvious example being manufacturing. Would our rate of material use look so low if we included the materials used for every retail good sold, regardless of where it was manufactured? I doubt it.
Absolutely. A market adjusts far more rapidly to match supply and demand than any committee ever could, especially as groups of people that set prices have agendas other than seeking movement to a balanced price.

It seems very unlikely that they are unedited. Any link to that claim? I just re skimmed the article and didn’t find anything along those lines.

For example I would guess this pic has some photoshop to emphasize the light and atleast some simple Lightroom.

You got me there. I'd put something like that in quotes!

I actually ran into that last week with a publication. Didn't have rights to a certain font's italics. Too much deliberation with design and edit. Solution ended up being single quotes. ex:

I had trouble installing basic packages like Sphinx (Py) due to some imaginary locking problem on the part of apk... and I couldn't find any info on how to make apk ignore the locks (or even just delete the locks, and then go on installing).

This was in container-world, so... a bit bizarre. It's very possible that I did something wrong or bizarre, but... that's of no consequence. Ubuntu/Debian works.
I think of it as being like the "dash as /bin/sh" thing in Debian-derived distros. Software that's carefully done "by the book" or intended to be highly portable is unlikely to have a problem. But a lot of things depend on bash/glibc without anyone particularly intending or realizing it, simply because their sheer market share means that such dependencies will "just work" for the vast majority of users.
The source of this claim is highly questionable
We have the most unaffordable property market in the world, technology is stagnating, corrupt construction companies are cutting corners and building dangerous infrastructure. Yeah sure.

Vietnam freed itself from two Western Imperial powers and then stoped the Khmer Rouge in the span of just 30 years. Today it’s a thriving, if poor country.
There really isn’t rule of law in China, so this question is really moot. The officials will make whatever modification to the law on the fly to suit their current political needs.

> The only thing that annoys me the Airbnb booking experience, is that it's not really a booking, it's putting in a booking request and then waiting for the owners to approve. Compared to regular hotels.

Regular hotels might not always be a live booking either. Every once in a while, someone misses a fax. Usually a real hotel has some slack to fix things when some one comes in with a reservation that didn't get booked.

Have enough patience/motivation to experiment until it works. You'll know when it does. You might need a different mask, a refit, switch from nose to full-face, something.

My problem was I'm slightly claustrobic - and wearing the full mask reminded me of my mask I wear at the Fire Department. There I can always mentally power through it and focus - but with the CPAP, you literally can't focus while you are TRYING TO FALL ASLEEP. I ripped the damn thing off my first night.

I watched that Youtuber's videos and found one of the tips about relaxing and used it on the 2nd night and have never looked back. I'm talking "from my cold dead hands" will you take my cpap away.
It’s not free. Taxes in France are massive. It’s one of the highest tax to GDP in the world. That and inflexible labour law also comes at an additional cost: high unemployement and sluggish growth even when the whole world is doing great.
I think the point is we are left with uncertainty. Your prior should be that we don't know which competitor is best, and after the competition we are still unsure.

Nearly a quarter of US residents are on medicaid, and have free healthcare.

Medical bankruptcy was a big problem, but under the ACA the yearly out of pocket max has all but eliminated these.
Certainly some landlords will do that as rent control shifts their business into unprofitability. Result: less rental housing stock.
The problem isn't so much the uranium, it's the radium that is present in the ore in secular equilibrium. During the carbonate precipitation it is separated as radium carbonate. It's worrying that the word "radium" doesn't show up once in the whole text.
It's not like landlords provide housing to fulfill human need, they only serve people with money. Rent control might make them sad and build less, that's why we need to go further and provide universal public housing.

Tesla took so long for production because Charlatan-In-Chief didn't want to use any of the lessons learned about Auto Manufacturing the past 100 years and decided to do it his way.

Ppp measures are incredibly inaccurate, especially if you want to compare similar lifestyles. Having a western-leave middle class lifestyle is just as expensive (for many things more so) than many places in the west.

> I'm not sure it makes it worse. Lithium is a common, non-toxic element that is easily recycle-able.

I think one of main constraints on battery cost is the price of cobalt, which is a conflict mineral. Some chemistries (like lithium iron phosphate) don't need cobalt, but a lot of the high-performing batteries do.

Not to be dumb, but for a newcomer such as myself who read the blurbs about it being simple to use and develop for, not being able to have a single ISO to download and install is from this point in my Linux Journey, not simple.

I'm not making a value judgment as to whether or not I should know how to compile source code and running this on top of another Linux and so fort, but I can intuit my way through installing Debian or Manjaro or Arch Linux or knoppix or any other distro that provides a binary ISO.

It seems like this is simple in terms of 'lightweight for linux pros', not simple as in 'intuitive for users to use'.

I'm not sure that's a bad thing, just pointing out that I am unable to try this with my current skill level

Engines and transmissions are also heavy.
I like to test my world view as policies are enacted. Decide a concrete measure for a particular outcome, write it down and check the results once a year (I do it on new years day). These rent control measures are a great target for this regime.
I love this laptop (I own one). But the screen quality and its size (16/9) are not very optimal for work productivity.
Nope. The framing, cropping the face and focusing on the chest, is distinctly objectifying.
Medicaid isn't bad, it's better than many bottom-tier private plans, but it's also got some problems. For one, finding a doctor can be hard. Not so much with general practitioners, but definitely with specialists. Also if you're in the higher qualified income band, you can still get stuck with 10 to 20% of the bill, and making 150% of the poverty limit doesn't make you any better equipped to deal with $100,000 in expenses than if you made a little less money... It actually pays to be poorer. Not all prescriptions are covered either, level of coverage varies by state. Sure the pharmacy has to give it to you if you say you can't pay, but you still owe the money and can get sent to collections, have wages garnished, have to declare bankruptcy, etc.

Medicaid simply isn't the healthcare panacea for the poor that some make it out to be when they say, "But the poor already have coverage!". And it ignores the fact that there's millions of people just above the income cutoffs whose state of poorness is pretty indistinguishable from those that get coverage, but they're still completely on their own.
How is that a bill of attainder? A bill of attainder is one that says “$Foo $Bar and $Baz of people will be punished/have properly removed”.

And exemption from a regulation is “If you fulfill this criteria/make an application then different set of regulations take effect”.
If only! No, China hasn’t been like that since the early/mid 90s (and even that was a regression from the late 80s). Nope, if you want to see a heavy level of oppression, you’ll have to book a trip to Pyongyang. China will feel chaotic in comparison (and for many things even more free than the west).

I actually have friends who have visited the DPRK to get a feel for how China used to be.
Americans could live in a city where they walk, cycle, or ride a tram to work. For the most part, they don’t want to. They used to have such cities, but they ripped up the tram lines and put in freeways. (Part of that is because most of the US is quite unpleasant to walk or cycle in from a weather point of view. The average high in Amsterdam, a famous cycling city, tops out at 72 degrees. In Atlanta, it’s 80+ from May through September.)
Every time rent control comes up, you get a lot of Econ 101 critique of it, but really, rent control is fine and can even encourage new development. This is a good discussion of it: https://www.fresheconomicthinking.com/2019/09/rent-control-i...

Like a lot of economic critique, rent control criticism is driven from cultural allegiance to landlords and the rentier class, rather than good faith.
Do you have actual statistics on that, or is this another one of those claims supported entirely by one-off cherry picked examples? Have you considered that it is instead the reporting of detentions, thousands of which occur worldwide daily, that is skewed to match current tensions?
I used to work at Airbnb.

While certainly it’s in Airbnb’s financial interests to keep transactions on platform, I saw a great deal of cases where fraudulent hosts (with fake listings) were encouraging folks to make off platform payments. Of course the first thing most guests do in those cases is complain to Airbnb and demand their money back — as if Airbnb had taken their money. Putting some friction helps Airbnb say, “We’re sorry that happened, but that’s not our problem.”

objectifying ≠ sexist

I think there is a strong arguement for objectifying, but still think it's more "sexual" than "objectifying", and definitely those two way more than it's "sexist".

Sexism is discrimination based on sex. Discrimination is different treatment based on a characteristic.
Housing should not be a commodity. Rent control is a solution to a specific problem of housing being a commodity -- landlords spiking tenants' rents, forcing them to relocate. It isn't a solution to the housing shortage. The solution to the housing shortage, which, for example Bernie Sanders proposes in his plan and this article fails to mention, is dramatically expanding affordable public housing. There is simply no other solution to the housing crisis than to decommodify housing, considering it a public good and a right. The unregulated market has never and will never provide affordable housing to all on its own.

Economists love to criticize rent control because in some abstract economic sense it is "bad", but most people don't care about the market efficiency (Which mostly means maximizing profit to landlords and developers) of the housing market. They care that their communities are not destroyed by gentrification and that they are able to stay in their homes without being dislocated, both goals that rent control is successful at achieving.
Intelligence, Complexity, and the Failed “Science” of IQ
We have more empty houses than homeless people by >> 3x. This is a problem of distribution. Also, why should I pay someone who does nothing for me 1/3 or more of my income? They just own a piece of paper, thus extract rents and victimize people that can't pay. People must be housed, the landlords should be cast out into the cold.
Why don’t you just check out the numerous other historical examples of rent control and see how they turned out.

Hmmm, I wish that were true. It seems like it would be, but my (Canadian) province’s two major cities are showing how glacially slow the market is reacting to an oversupply. Cheap interest rates mean that for a lot of builders who overbuilt, it’s cheaper to pay the 2-3% interest for the year than to lower prices 10-20%. Our prices went up like a rocket around 2006-2008, and are very very gradually dropping back down. There was, of course, no significant salary increase in the same time period, or since then, so entering the housing market for first time buyers has been much more very difficult than it was in the past.
eBay has done this for years as well.
Please, what is your additional concern here?
We need more housing if there's a housing shortage. Build more.
