Ah, that makes sense for the milk, and clears up how they're classifying ultraprocessed. Like you, I'm skeptical that this classification system is useful for determining healthiness. I can't see why you'd expect, for example, adding casein to a food to have similar health effects as adding soluble fiber or corn syrup or any other unrelated substance.

I have a personal theory that to me seems like the simplest explanation for why junk food is fattening. It's not processing per se. It's simply that people will eat more calories when offered delicious, high-calorie foods. Put a bunch of bland highly processed tofu in front of me and I won't eat many calories. Give me some mostly unprocessed peanuts and raisins to munch on and I'll eat much more. Raw, unseasoned ingredients aren't optimized for taste and convenience, while processed foods often are. I'd also expect people eat more calories at a fine French restaurant (or any restaurant) for the same reason: they design their meals to be delicious. But no one is going to write an article saying delicious and convenient calorie-dense foods cause weight gain.

I wonder if the prices can be adjusted after the app is published. So the scammer publishes the app with a reasonable price, gets past review, then ups the price and profits.
I propose a way to improve cybersecurity: FINE companies who loose sensitive customer data to hackers. Fines can be calculated according to the "breach severity grid" which is based on the type of data that is lost. For example:

1. Personal address, DOB - $15.
2. Each social security $20.
3. Driver license number $25.
4. Bank account numbers $30.
etc.

So a loss of 4.9 million social security numbers, DOB and addresses would generate a fine of $171,500,000

Problem solved!

Now, the company will think 100x times BEFORE collecting consumer data if they can actually PROTECT IT. Build robust security FIRST!

An alternative is to have random-lot assignments, at least so long as you care to preserve a private, for-profit, insurance sector. That is, members of a given population is assigned, at random, to a set of insurance providers, who have minimum performance and obligation standards.

Otherwise, the socialised version already exists, in most industrialised countries, in some form or another. Within the US, Medicare for the elderly, Medicaid for the poor and children, and in many states, "high risk pools" which are state managed.

More generally, a problem is that the bulk of health benefits do _not_ accrue from direct or acute medical treatment, but from public health and preventive measures, _especially_ well-mother, well-baby, early childhood, municipal sanitation and environmental measures, and general (workplace and elsewhere) safety provisions. Insurance companies of and by themselves don't address much of this.

Oh no.
I disagree on your characterisation of 'class consciousness', which from the point of view of a proponent of the theory reflects the general lack of knowledge of a class about its objective position in society. As Lukacs wrote, "It is the objective result of the economic set-up, and is neither arbitrary, subjective nor psychological". It is, from this standpoint, no different from ignorance of technology or other objective factors that shape society and control distribution and production.

>we're more in the managing class, in that we get paid well and have to think

The distinction which proponents of "class consciousness" talk about was never between thinking and doing, but between those who (loosely speaking) have nothing to sell but their labour power, and those who posses capital. The reluctance to view highly paid wage labour as a form of wage labour rests on misconstrued notions of what "working class" means in political theory (i.e blue collar workers, people who work with machines, etc.), notions drawn from romantic Soviet depictions of the worker (the strong, brave man with a hammer and sickle) and the "temporarily embarrassed millionaire".

There's been a lot of work since the 60s into trying to figure out why this notion is so prevalent. Perhaps it can be best summed up by Marcuse:

"If the worker and his boss enjoy the same television program and visit the same resort places, if the typist is as attractively made up as the daughter of her employer, if the Negro owns a Cadillac, if they all read the same newspaper, then this assimilation indicates not the disappearance of classes, but the extent to which the needs and satisfactions that serve the preservation of the Establishment are shared by the underlying population."
I lived in Florida for a couple of years; morbid to consider but of my grandparents' generation, many migrate south and end up there. So there was an incredible array of like-new mens' clothing sold at huge second-hand shops. I have a collection of silk, short-sleeve button down shirts, wool blend pants and coats.

In one case, I purchased a new, custom tailored double-breasted linen suit for ten cents. It was far too small for me, but I gave it a young high-school student: he had never owned a suit.

Another fun hobby of mine was to dress up in these wool suits, go and walk dogs or pick up trash in our local park.

Turns out, wool could handle the heat. I overheat easily, but I was fine. The clothes usually did not need laundering. Just hang them up with enough air.

At the time, these clothes cost a fraction of new jeans and t-shirts or active wear. And they held up fine. Some of the silk shirts are starting to shred, but as they cost me a quarter each is no problem.

The wool suits will last longer than I will. Some of them more than 50 years old.

It's a simple statement of fact that women tend to take more time off than men for such things. It is in no way a suggestion that this is what men or women actually want.

I think a lot of it is driven by practical considerations. Taking any time off work can undermine your earning capacity, so if you have a primary breadwinner in the family, it gets hard to make that choice.

I would love to help foster a world where this worked differently. But, for now, this is generally how it works for most people.
Depends on the dream. I've developed a sense of how much brain activity I have going on.

Sometimes I have a good grip, I'm deep in REM, and I can do anything I want for a while with no consequence. I am still tending to my brain activity but it's manageable. Other times, the slightest deviation from my preprogrammed behavior is enough to perturb the dream.

I have countless times woken up when pushing myself too far, but it's gotten better. So sometimes I am quite lucid but just have to not think too hard or deviate much from my preprogrammed behavior. Too much effort or going too wild breaks the dream. But very often I choose to fly around, visit places and people, and sometimes interact.

I've even had a few dreams where I've managed to do simple arithmetic and memory recall without waking up. Plenty of dreams where I try to write things down thinking I'll still have it when I wake up.

A recent fascination I've had the last few months is pushing boundaries with my dream characters. Several weeks ago I had a dream where I was having a conversation with someone, and paused to observe that the situation wasn't real. Normally I've found I have to keep this knowledge to myself because the dream will immediately break up, but this time I remarked to the girl that she wasn't real and in fact was a figment of a dream. She looked at me and said that she was and I was acting crazy. She wouldn't believe me.

So since then I've been trying to provoke my dream people by telling them they are not real to see what kind of responses I get.

In a pretty recent dream, I found myself in a huge pasture where a hot air balloon festival was taking place. A girl was sitting on a blanket eating something, so I kicked myself high into the air and glided down to first show her that I could warp the laws of physics, then I whispered in her ear that it was just a dream and she was an apparition. She smiled and said out loud, "I know this is all just a dream," at which point everyone around her just looked at me in affirmation.

I got really nervous but no one seemed to mind, so I managed to spend about half an hour talking to all sorts of people both imaginary and from my real life, having conversations about the nature of existence and dreaming and pondering on how my brain was able to create all of this in realtime. Then someone wearing all black with short cropped hair ran up to me, grabbed my by the shoulders and shook me while fervently repeating something in a language I didn't understand. Their eyes looked wild and pleading and they kept repeating the same thing over and over until they were convinced that I couldn't understand, at which point I was told another word and the figure let go and ran off into the crowd. I wasn't able to find them, but the excitement of the experience and running around got my brain amped up and things began to slowly go white. I asked a few people if they recognized the person but they didn't, and I woke up. The experience was a bit unsettling.

"In other words, nearly any phone you buy today will have a more powerful, more power-efficient CPU than the Librem 5—even $160 Android phones are now packing eight-core SoCs built on more power-efficient manufacturing processes. That $700 price Purism is asking (more than a OnePlus 7 Pro!) is the price you pay for a niche smartphone with none of the economies of scale you get with normal smartphone parts."

It seems like the thing they always forget is that the first off the line product of any kind generally runs more expensive. Also, by knowing that your phone is private, it's definitely not "unknowingly" sponsored by third parties interested in information harvesting. Not many smart phones can unqualifyingly say that anymore.
Fair point. I hope this will not "catch on". It does not make it less ridiculous though. :P
I was really excited for a minute there hoping that they finally fixed the "autoplay media on the phone on opening the door" bug that plagued the car since its launch. But no such luck.

100%. Tesla is THE car for long roadtrips in the US and the narrative otherwise needs to stop.

CURRENT Superchargers charge up to 600 miles per hour. COMPLETELY dead to COMPLETELY full is like 30 minutes. But most stops to charge will only last long enough for you to pee and grab a red bull

NEW superchargers charge up to 1000 miles per hour. Do the math. You're going to have to start jogging if you want your redbull before idle fee's kick in.

Combine that with autopilot. I took a trip in a gas rental car recently and HATED it. Tesla for roadtrips for sure.
FYI for Tesla owners in Cali; if you're taking the trip between NorCal and SoCal, make a stop at the Kettleman City supercharger. It's massive, and you get access to a private lounge, espresso bar, air conditioning, nice bathrooms, and even a small play area for little kids.

Well, I would hope the engineers working on Netflix and Caraoke aren't the ones who are working on self-driving features. They seem like different enough things that they could be worked on simultaneously. Full self-driving is a long time away anyway, and while we wait for that, features like this help cope with not having full self-driving and differentiating the car in the market.

eGPUs have been supported for a couple years now. Grab a Mac Mini, an eGPU, max out the RAM, add an external hard drive or two, boom, your ‘pro consumer’ Mac for about $2k.
The reality is that they don't care at all. It's not in any way aligned with their incentives.

It's been a while since I've used Tinder, but they were rate-limiting swipes - unless you paid up for premium features.
It depends on whether you are using who/whom as the subject or object. Who = subject, whom = object.
It's disappointing seeing a developer claim apple is out to "kill" indie developers.

It follows a pattern of absolutely over the top language around companies like apple.

Apple's approach has resulted in 2 million apps+ in the app store. I'm not sure given their crappy interface I could find or use even a fraction of them.
Giving customers higher preference would indeed be possible if agreed ahead of time. But it would increase borrowing costs as bond holders would now be subordinate. Don’t expect it to happen unless a law mandates it - consumers don’t have enough bargaining power.

In the case of this bankruptcy preferring customers would be changing the rules after the game had started. Even if you did it a bankruptcy judge would be in his rights to claw back the cost from the consumer.

I think you should look into the histories of HTTP/2 and HTTP/3 before making such claims. These were both in development and deployment as proprietary protocols used by Google (in Chrome and other things) for nearly 10 years before being officially ratified.

I was not at all disagreeing or making a comment regarding that. I just merely expressed my wants, hence why I started with stating that it is going to be a pointless comment. :)
Depends on jurisdiction. In my province, our Motor Vehicle Act defines all its regular road rules as rules of the “highway” and it treats publicly accessible parking lots as highways.

“"highway" includes ... every private place or passageway to which the public, for the purpose of the parking or servicing of vehicles, has access or is invited”

Yep! Right now we're seeing a mix of customers that's roughly 1/3 web development agencies, 1/3 e-commerce websites, and 1/3 B2C lead generation websites.

The value proposition of Gatsby to website agencies is working with modern tech & completing projects faster, and for e-commerce it's higher conversion rates which add $$ to the bottom line.

"I think the issue is that when people say they’ve “worked hard,” they’re implicitly suggesting superiority"

Yes, you compare it to others who do similar work. Who actually says "I worked hard... in comparison to anyone who has ever worked.". It's usually you work hard for that line of work. A software engineer can be changing links and sipping coffee or pulling 12 hours coding all day. One is doing hard work. Article seems to be arguing semantics.
Very interesting. I've seen a similar idea proposed to enable shared-memory based RPC, instead of communicating over a socket both processes agree to "trade" a chunk of memory back and forth, using it as a buffer for RPC messages.

You say IF financing was reduced, but it is already happening. And you are missing the underlying problem of stranded assets. Fossil fuel assets are priced on the assumption that all reserves will be extracted and sold, but it has become clear this is not going to happen. As a consequence the financiers are taking their money elsewhere.

In fact even the fossil fuel asset owners are starting to do this. For instance the Saudi Arabia plan to do an IPO of Aramco is because they know they need to rapidly diversify their economy away from oil. The idea the oil industry is going to remain financially healthy while all this is going on is quite unrealistic.

I think we need a hierarchy of identity verification.

At the top, we'd have in-person verification using physical documents, such as passport, driver's license, birth certificate, and similar. A good candidate to handle this level is banks and credit unions, at their branch offices.

To handle people who can't come in in-person to set up their account at a top level verification service, there could be top level providers that send a notary to you to check your documents.

Online access to top level accounts should require 2FA. Account recovery in the case of lost passwords or lost second factor or lost recovery codes would require another in-person verification.

Next down in the hierarchy would be services like email providers. When you set up your account with them, you should be able to associate it with one of your accounts at a top level provider, and there should be a way for the email provider to verify with the top level provider and with you that you really are the owner of that top level account.

Account recovery for these accounts requires re-verifying with the associated top level provider.

Below that are services that use your email address as your identity. They verify you the usual way--sending an email and requiring you to prove that you received it. Account recovery requires the same kind of verification.

The idea is that everything is ultimately rooted with your top level providers. If you can protect those accounts, then everything below has protection. Someone might still temporarily hijack your Twitter account or even your email account, if you aren't using strong 2FA and your password leaks, but you can do an account recovery using the account that is above it in the identity hierarchy.

For banks that serve as top level verification services, this should be separate from online banking accounts. People need to routinely log into online banking, but should only very rarely need to use their verification account. The verification account generally only needs to be used when creating a new account one step down the hierarchy, such as a new primary email account or a new account at a domain registrar, or when recovering a lost or hijacked email or domain account.

It should thus be feasible to not store your top level password online at all. It can be on a printed document kept where you store other important documents, such as in your fire proof safe with your passport and birth certificate.

On another topic--sites really should clearly document how things like account recovery works. If a site that requires 2FA for login allows configuring whether that is via SMS, TOTP, or U2F...but then it turns out that you can always do account recovery via SMS even if you disabled that as a 2FA method for login, I want to know that up front, so that I know that switching to TOTP or U2F doesn't actually protect me against account theft. At many sites, the only way to actually find out how account recovery works is to go through it, and that is annoying.
Nope. "The grass is greener" refers to falsely thinking that something you don't have is better than what you do have.

This guy drove trucks for three years. I think his assessment of his experience is not based on an illusion.

He also wasn't saying it was better than software development. He was burnt out in the software world and drove trucks simply to do something that wasn't that. After a few years of truck driving, he returned to the software world, which is what he is still doing today, and speaks positively of both that and truck driving.
