Parallels specifically is much better than e.g. Virtualbox in my experience. Still not really pleasant—there's a lot of latency for some reason, unless you directly pass through the mouse as a USB device—but usable enough.

I still think I'd rather dual boot though.
We should still blame the engineer, but they shouldn't shoulder the majority of the blame.
How would you solve harassment then? If you dont believe in small changes in smaller communities, do you believe that change has to occur in all of society at once?
Not the best answer you'll get but my experience in the past has been that once you put your device on the "beta" cycle (iphone, mac, everything else), they will follow that until you hard reset it...meaning once the OS goes general release, you're still on the beta releases.

This means you're probably already using latest Catalina on the device that's on the beta cycle and you will continue getting new minor releases before the general public release one.
> On the whole, agile and scrum work well and are executed properly at most companies, but I've just had some bad luck.

Not a chance -- your experience mirrors mine over the course of the six or so companies that I've worked for. It's definitely #2.

They all fail in very similar ways: story points become hours/days; stand-ups devolve from status updates to daily team discussions; the backlog becomes irrelevant because new stories are created for each sprint; and, in companies which report velocity to senior management, story-point inflation.

Also, I've noticed that Agile transformations always create Agile zealots within the organization which seem to act to quell dissent. I'm not sure why this is, maybe the transformations are tied to bonuses or something, but it's a universal thing. There's always somebody running around telling you that you're team is Doing It Wrong when you bring up any legitimate criticisms of the process.

My experience and knowledge about it has said that this is because of the reliance of OSX on GPU hardware. That means it won't ever perform well on any kind of software rendering. Some kind of GPU passthrough or sharing is needed to make it work acceptably.
Ben Eater's YouTube channel (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCS0N5baNlQWJCUrhCEo8WlA) shows the step-by-step process of building an 8-bit computer, running a display and sending data over a network from fundamental components. He does use some manufactured stuff like breadboards, timing crystals and ICs, but it's still pretty cool stuff. Building computers from raw minerals would be pretty tough.

Adam Smith observed rent-seeking in his own time, and had some harsh words to say about it (first volume of Wealth of Nations)

"The ability to buy and sell labor" is not really part of Marx's definition of capitalism - while LTV is important to Marxism, Marx's critique was that LTV is no longer clear because of Capital. Anti-marxists like to try and disprove LTV because it's the first thing in Das Kapital but they miss the point completely (Marx got it from Smith anyway).
I don’t think it’s the engineers fault. Apple is in business to make money, and China represents a huge chunk of money. The company seems to prioritize money over human rights in situations like these. Likely they had an engineer in China do it.
> Anyway, the law isn't just designed to protect shareholders,

Which law? "The Law" as an ideal, is impartial. That's irrelevant. In practice, applied law (and the cousin enforced law) leads to biased results, favoring the wealthy and the status quo while remaining "impartial".
That doesn't sound bad at all. Someone with the millions of dollars it takes to build apartment blocks isn't going to be held up with those minor issues.

All those things sound completely reasonable.

EDHmeetup: Find commander play-groups in your area
I'm not talking about cost of the book. I'm talking about studying. I feel strongly that you focus better and study better when reading a paper book. Digital products are too prone to offer distractions that take away from focus.
Debt, student debt, mortgage debt, cost of living in such a high paying area do tend to be much more expensive - fiscal relativity if you like.

So not as clear cut that they can all just pack up and go walkabout.
EDHmeetup is a platform dedicated to helping commander players find a play-group near them, no matter the country or city.
You can either search for groups near you, or create your own!
We also provide tools to use with your group members.

If you play commander (EDH) and need a group, or want more players in YOUR group, try out edhmeetup.com!

In Which We Were Safe with Yukio Mishima (2017)
The max employee contribution in 2019 is $19000 so given a 50% match the employer would pay $9500. I know a number of large tech companies offer this. But it still way under what they COULD contribute. And you are right most companies are way under that 50% match up to the individual limit example.

EDIT: Sorry just reread your comment, yes that’s another way companies will structure it x% match up to y% of your salary. The x and y differ wildly. Also some will add a up to z total match. Which kind of formula works out best for you highly depends on your salary. But the average employer contribution for someone maxing out their personal contribution is $3000.

That still doesn't mean titles were banned by the U.S. Constitution, as you claim it did.

All you're showing is that the US has a lower regard for formalities than the UK (in the mid-20th century). While I don't think pointing to one film is good evidence, I agree, based on what I know from other things.

However, that doesn't show "disregard for formalities" only less regard for formalities.

A decade later, you still had Mr. Rogers talking to Mr. McFeely of Speedy Delivery and Officer Clemons, so its not like that one film was representative of a US-wide change.

In 2009 it was still the norm that undergrads call their professors by title, not by first name - http://phdcomics.com/comics/archive.php?comicid=1153 says "Undergrads must never call Professors by their first name. It's just weird."

That's not a disregard for formalities.

1. Ignored the amortized cost of all that roadway construction. You can't just look at maintenance costs.

2. Ignored the state and federal funding that went into it.

3. Ignored the cost of 'free' parking.

4. Ignored the cost of highway and parking enforcement (If you have even one officer doing it full-time, the fines don't pay for it.)

There is way for engineers to exercise their power to prevent things like this from happening, but it can only happen through collective action.

Getting fired for not acceding to a demand like this isn't the result of an individual manager making a decision but the entire apparatus of corporate governance coming to bear on the person. It can be only be meaningfully resisted and fought with an equally organized group of engineers.

In my opinion, this is a political issue. It should be handled on a political level similar to the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act that sets minimum standards for how corporations are allowed to act in foreign countries.

For-profit corporations are systemically unfit to solve this problem on their own. We should stop wishing for them to be something they cannot consistently be.

Thank you for taking the time to explain that - it seems the "abstain from things polluted by idols, from sexual immorality,from what is strangled, and from blood" is obviously a literal interpretation. "From what is strangled and from blood" I always took as profiting from war or suffering but I understand that the challenges of scripture is determine what is literal and what is metaphorical - there's also the concept of what is an "idol" and how is it polluting.

I appreciate you clarifying this. I think I understand a bit more, that there are some aspects of medical science construed as idolatrous, as perhaps glorifying an institution of man and not God.

Have you ever heard of any talk of a ceremony that would somehow reconcile these elements? Again I'm ignorant of JW doctrine and priests don't seem as prevalent, but I'm wondering if there could ever be room for some type of transfusion ceremony that allowed for this, in the precense of correct scripture and religious authority, that was "in the service to Jehovah." Sort of a "Deo volente" thing.

>fails to account for the many, many socially maladapted yet gifted people out there

When has anyone ever claimed that being socially adept correlated with IQ? It's long been a trope that geniuses were eccentric and socially mal-adjusted. Even Isaac Newton, centuries ago, was known to be an odd recluse.
Perl won’t be extinct anytime soon due to its quality. Those who know it treasure it for the unmatched performance. Performance of turning ideas into reality. Ideas way beyond sysadmin and reporting stuff. Perl as a language, ecosystem, and community is well and kickin’. My 2 cents.
Capitol Hill also has one of the busiest Link stations in the system. Depending on where you are on the hill it's quite a hike, but to say that Capitol Hill lacks a subway is a half-truth. (A light rail is not a subway, but Link is definitely about as far as you can push light rail in the subway direction.)

The main advantage of the Link is the total separation from traffic; even with the bus lanes, the bus on Pike and Pine will get bogged down waiting for poor drivers, pedestrians crossing the street, etc.

It shows that Nov-Dec in Yellowstone has the lowest number of visitors in any type of accomodations. Also, average temperatures under 50F/10C for most of November and all of December - and those months will not have a winter's worth of snow base slowly melting off as it would in March, they'll just be cold.

Take that as you will: either the busy park will be blissfully quiet and it's a great time to go, or a lot of people think it's a bad time to visit.

Looks like Joshua Tree, CA and Big Bend, TX are more popular parks in those months.
Forgot to note that, the money wasn't "missing" in the sense that it disappeared. It was definitely spent, over many projects, over many years. The problem he was trying to point out was that the auditing and tracking is poor and it is difficult to retroactively see where it was spent. I'm not trying to downplay it too much, because it obviously was (and IS) a huge problem. But there wasn't any implication of nefariousness or intentional fraud. (Caveat: There may have been smaller cases of fraud to make up that number, but the $2.3trillion itself wasn't implied to be all fraud).

It wasn't "wait, wtf happened to all this money? >:( ".

It was more "ah crap, we didn't do a good job tracking all this money... :*("

The nuance is subtle and easily hand-waved away by truthers, but such is politics.

Why can it be only useful after a collapse?

If it can be useful, than it can also be useful today to all the (poor) tinker people around the world today. There are lots of alternative eco villages etc. trying to be self sufficient, who do all kinds of recycling and improvised technology. If this adopts with those people, then it might be useful.

But if they cannot use this today, then I don't see how a broken down surviver group could use it.
The executive order[1] targets the Government of Venezuela [2] not all Venezuelan companies and individuals. But I guess it's easier to deactivate everyone than try and verify if the account is related to the Government of Venezuela.

While I agree that WikiPedia is unnecessarily restrictive in their coverage (particularly with regard to how to do things), I think there's a lot of value there, too...especially in a world that has lost access to anything more in-depth. I mean, I can go to WikiPedia and figure out how ancient peoples cooled and heated their homes, handled irrigation, preserved foods without refrigeration, what plants are edible, what plants grow in what regions (though this would be thrown off by a climate catastrophe), how to render fat for storage, how to make rubber, how to smelt iron, how to build a boat from naturally available supplies, how to make cloth water resistant, natural remedies, etc. While it's not a "how to" guide for any of these things, if you can read, look at the diagrams, and follow the references within WikiPedia, you can figure it out with some trial and error.

The premise isn't that the folks with WikiPedia can rebuild modern society. It's that they literally can't (even if they had better knowledge resources), but would still have a survival advantage from having a little bit of the old knowledge. The fact is that if we lose our modern society, we'll never be able to build it up again. We've dug up all of the easily accessible resources, already. Scavenging from the good old days is the best any post-apocalyptic society can hope for, as bleak as that sounds.
"Working from home" often means "meeting with people" either at your home or, more often, at their office (or home). Which means that whilst you're somewhat unmoored from the tribulations of office real estate and commutes, you're not fully divorced from spacial reality.

Cities exist for reasons, and facilitating encounters and interactions between people (and organisations) is chief among these.
It seems like "healthcare linked to employment" is a nutty system even if you don't want healthcare for people who can't pay, though.

Even among people who work and have a lot of money, having healthcare based on employer causes all kinds of headaches. It makes a brief lapse between switching jobs unreasonably risky, especially before pre-existing conditions were covered. It punishes self-employment by denying people the major discounts big employers can negotiate. It punishes part-time work, because one 40 hour/week job with insurance might "pay" better than two equal-wage 30 hour/week jobs. And it makes long vacations or early retirement far less accessible; if you make in 6 months what someone else does in 12, you're not free to take those 6 months off without paying a steep premium on insurance.

And none of that is news, but it's always confused me that there's so little drive to delink healthcare from "being actively employed". Even for someone who wants to shut down Medicaid, the current system is bizarrely hostile to all kinds of high-earning people who could pay their own healthcare costs, but get punished for looking anywhere except full-time work at a big company.

Realistically, I think it's just ignored because the larger debates over cost and government care overshadow everything else. But in my more cynical moments, I can't help noticing that while the current system doesn't serve workers or entrepreneurs well, it's great at driving them to become a predictable labor supply.

Yes, when it comes to trade and financial wealth of a country, then the amount of `social/humane` crimes you can get away with does seem to have an equation waiting to be officially formulated and named.

Don't make it right, but it is a common theme by many countries and how they put business of trade ahead of moral and for the right price, will look the other way. Not singularing out any country as more righteous or guilty than others, as not the motives here or the point. Just that it does happen and sadly, I don't see that changing. Which is sad as it is in corruption/bribery on many levels and just not seen for what it is.
It’s not that they can’t keep 32-bit support, it’s that they don’t want to. Apple has a history of forcing people in to the future that they envision. Much like they did with removing the disk drive and the headphone jack. Seems like that is what they are doing here by killing 32-bit applications.
