The most tools mentioned in this thread I have used for a while. Few of them are obsolete or don't work anymore. Currently, I use the tool https://www.emailchecky.com/ for a complete email analysis. It's completely free. My second tool is https://www.emailtooler.com/. It is good to check the email body for common spam words.

>selling drugs is generally something addicts do to other addicts;

When it comes to hard drugs, that's really not the case most of the time. Kind of hard to run a successful drug dealing operation when your consuming your own products. Especially gang dealers. A lot of gangs have no tolerance for their dealers doing drugs while selling. In a lot of cases these really are non addicts taking as much advantage of people as they can.

>but it's not something that victimizes those that aren't drug addicts

Ran into a junkie once, he asked to buy a smoke, then just started telling me his life story. He'd been engaged, ran his own company, owned a house. He ended up getting into a car accident, doctor prescribed him opiates, when his prescription was finished he started getting dopesick, he ended up finding someone who could sell him, oxy's(pretty sure that's what it was), anyway appparently his buddy or whatever.didn't have any one day offered him some heroin, helped him shoot up and pretty much started the dude's downward spiral into losing his entire life, not speaking to his family for years and had placed him in the position where he was asking me for a smoke on the street while trailing all his wordly possessions in a shopping cart. He was not happy with his life, he'd been too ashamed to talk to his parents for 6 years or something, there really isn't much help available for people like that. If they don't get into some kind of program, which, is not easy for people like that who have nobody, they're just stuck in that cycle.

"Options for people who don't want/need to have a car" is very different than "maybe no one should have a car". Cars are pretty necessary if you have kids in most of the US, for example. While there's an argument that much of the US was designed in a way that forces this necessity, the reality is that the road system in US exists, the US is gigantic, and mobility within the US is generally considered desirable.

It's good to encourage cities to find ways for residents to get around without cars, if only because it can increase social mobility by increasing options for people who can't afford one. But pretty much all of the evidence I've seen suggests that Americans very much choose to have a car once they can afford one, and that is very much rooted in the fact that they're phenomenally useful.

Something that might cheer you up:

We too used to live near a lake, in an apartment. The geese there terrorized people one year.

We had a tiny little partially disabled girl ferret. She could barely walk but slithered and bounced around with gusto and she had a surfeit of chutzpah.

We bought a little leash for her, and let her explore the grass, bushes, mulch and edge of the lake, and she loved every minute of it, chucking and dooking happily.

Then the geese saw us, and started their "feed us or suffer" swarm. We of course began to back up, and as the long necked avian assholes drew closer, we thought of beating a hasty retreat.

But then our saviour leaped forth! Tiny disabled girl ferret happily bounced around at our feet and then charged at the geese like a little flailing bezerker, loudly dooking the whole time.

I'd never before seen a goose visibly think "oh fuck", and here was a couple dozen double taking geese stopping dead in their webby tracks, like a European general trying to advance east during a Russian winter. Each goose looked shocked, then confused, then terrified as they abandoned any thoughts of camaraderie and fled from this tiny whirling daemon dervish of death.

Tiny girl ferret didn't get within 4 feet of the geese. Not a single of Nature's red teeth or claws were used. But a pound or so of sinewy insane calamity managed to put the fear of a goose god into those beaky bastards.

Unfortunately they kept attacking people and were dealt with somehow. We weren't told how, the apartment complex wouldn't say anything.

----- * -----

This is a true story. If you want to scare geese away, get yourself a ferret. In fact, get 3 because they are stinky social weasels who love to sleep cuddled up together. I miss my girls and boys, they were so much fun!

I also have Xfinity and began to experience this a few years ago. When it started I configured my router (pfSense running on an APU2) to forward all outgoing connections on port 80 (and a selection of other commonly unencrypted ports) through a VPN - but leave all other ports, especially 443, alone.

I’ve been doing that ever since. It works great, and for me is a good trade-off over using a VPN for literally everything.

Nothing like -R, but attaching tmux lets you swap the client between different sessions with `<your prefix> L` for last, `s` for an interactive list or `(`, `)` for next/previous, and some others I forget.

If you want to list sessions before attaching then there's `tmux ls` :)

I like living in the city. My wife and I did it with our daughter until she was 5. But the problem with American cities isn’t cars. It’s that they offer no solutions for parents who aren’t rich. (And almost everyone ends up becoming a parent at some point.) Schools, family centric activities, transportation, affordable housing. You need a million dollars to buy a house in a good school district in many major US cities (if one even exists). There’s not much in the way of other kids around. (Babies, maybe, but how often do you see 10 year olds in NYC that aren’t tourists?)
“Got 4 young kids...”

Seems like lots of responses from able-bodied individuals without kids, elderly parents or other dependants who are able to get around on scooters or bikes in any weather and have little tolerance for those who might not be able or willing to do the same.

I live in Orange County, Ca. and bike most places most days. My wife and I share a car and we walk many places. Interestingly, even getting to the Home Depot which is only 3.7 miles away takes 20 minutes, is a bit hair raising, and I can only get small items. My last job was about 6 miles away, took 40 minutes to bike and I only did it once because it was unsafe.

But I know we’re living a charmed life. My next door neighbor is recovering from cancer treatment. If he makes it to his physical therapy appointment, it’s a good day. I’m not going to tell him to “get better equipment” or that people bike in Amsterdam so he should to. Believe me he’d love to be biking again.

It doesn’t mean our cities cant move in a more walking/biking friendly direction. I’d love to have more safe places. But have some compassion for people who aren't as lucky as you.

Regarding actual damages, popups about data limits that appear to come from my page can easily damage my reputation or give the false impression that I have so9me kind of relationship with Comcast.

Since they are making a new derivative work without the authorization of the copyright holder, they are probably guilty of copyright infringement. The remedy for that could include statutory damages for each work they infringed of "a sum of not less than $750 or more than $30,000 as the court considers just"[1]. However, since the infringement was patently willful (they published an RFC explaining their intentions and methods), "the court in its discretion may increase the award of statutory damages to a sum of not more than $150,000."[2]

It's absolutely less risky for a number of reasons:

1. If I default on my credit card debt it will screw up my credit but the banks can't come after any of my assets. If you default on a mortgage it will screw up your credit and the bank will take your home.

2. I am free to take on the level of risk that I'm comfortable with, including risk free options such as treasuries or CDs. With a mortgage you are locked in.

3. I am free to mitigate my risk by diversifying across asset classes. I can put some money in gold, some in real estate, some in Japanese equities, etc...

With a mortgage you are leveraging a huge chunk of money and concentrating it in a single undiversified holding. If a disaster strikes and the insurance company doesn't cover it your wealth is wiped out. If property values decline and you need to move you're wiped out.

By every measure owning a home is riskier.
So not 100%. Kind of defeats the argument, imo. Now we're just talking about shades of grey.
I would happily switch if I had literally any other choice here. There isn’t even any phone lines running to our house, it’s Comcast cable or nothing.
The solution will be to have a slider that physically disconnects the networks. Slide it down and the hardware is no longer physically connected. The phone still have all it's no-connection features. Slide it up and you are back online.

We cannot trust software to actually disconnect as advertised. It is not in the network operator's interest. Unfortunately, it is also not in the phone manufacturer's interest to have you disconnect. Wake up, this is only a dream.

While I wouldn't want to attribute either cause as being more or less, it is a n interesting confounding variable that I wonder who the original and subsequent research accounted for it.

It isn't so much the spread out, as that there are not good routes for mass transit in most suburbs. Transit needs long straight lines with destinations along them. When roads wind, and destinations are at the end of cul-de-sacs transit has not chance because riders are forced to spend a lot of time making no progress in the actual direction of their destination.

This is our approach. Choose one of five assignments, we ask for 100 lines of code, take it home, take as much time as you need. When you come back, we do a code walk through with the team.

We've hired only great people with this approach, and they've told me after the fact that they really appreciated that it tested them in a natural manner, rather than a type of competition.
I thought the writing, characterization, and voice acting were surprisingly poor, it's a game that requires the chemistry between the two characters to really sing but it just falls flat. Some people complain about the plot itself not going "anywhere" but I think that would have worked if the fundamentals were stronger. (Far less important but I also really didn't like the animation and character feel.)

I vastly prefer Gone Home, which is a very similar type of game, with much less flashy visual style but the characters, voice acting, and storytelling are handled, imho, perfectly.
"As long as data is not de-aggregated and de-anonymized there is no issue here"

Awfully hopeful there.

I would say the same about your assertions of innocence and presumption that the data can not be de-anonymized. If the "propaganda" is supporting user privacy I'd say you're on the wrong side of this discussion.

Hermetic build systems make a lot of sense for companies, where you often want to control your whole stack and might even use a monorepo with all external dependencies vendored.

However, there are at least two cases where you do not want real hermetic builds:

- in the case of open source software that needs to be packaged for distributions, vendoring all the dependencies is bad. As the name already says, distributions remix software components and thus might want to compile your software against a different version of a library than the particular version you pick.
- for libraries, consumers use your library just as a component and might want to combine it with a specific version of other libraries, so vendoring also sucks.

Unfortunately, many declarative build systems make it hard to separate the "building a component" part from the "composing a product" part. I could find no way in Bazel to depend on system software (using for example pkgconfig).

In my opinion, build systems for open source software (as I mentioned, for companies Bazel makes sense since you often want to vendor all your deps anyway) need to have three aspects:

- build rules for just for this component
- dependencies on other components/libraries
- a method to lock down components/libraries to a specific version, creating an offical "product" with an official supported combination of all dependencies.

This still makes it possible for distributions to create their own "product", without having to rewrite most parts of the build system. At the same time, developers can work with the official library versions (for compat, maybe you should even have multiple "sets" of dependencies), so getting started is easy and you don't need to install lots of dependencies first before you can hack on the project.

Often, build systems do things that are nice for onboarding (like "build systems" that pull git repos of dependencies during build, in order to have a single command to build the product from scratch after checkout). But those things directly conflict with the needs of distributions. We need to separate the "instructions to build, supplying all deps externally explictly" (in the context of building a package for a distribution) from the "just build it from the command line on a dev machine" (here, dependencies should be implictly fetched automatically, to give a nice user experience).
this would be tough for me; I will not allow my name on a paper unless I read it before publication (and had some sort of useful, direct contribution). I guess large physics collaborations are very different from small bio projects, but still, I wouldn't want my name associated with a paper that later got retracted for something I would have caught.

Stories like this really make me how such a beautiful platform like Freecodecamp is often underrated. Where I come from, India, making money by running training centers is a huge business. Given the upskilling industry and the madness about data science, everyone's making money with that tag (for those who forgot Siraj Raval issue recently). But Freecodecamp is amazing that it stuck to web development. It's zero cost - simply completely free. Yet it can impact a lot more - like giving a social circle of programmers, a community and ultimately a job , career.

The problem was that it was the only option and Adobe just wasn't committed to being a good software development shop so when you found a bug you were stuck living with it. I did a modest sized project a decade ago where we kept hitting this cycle:

1. Find a bug in the Flash IDE where something basic (e.g. the debugger) crashes or doesn't work in an obvious, easily tested manner.

2. Report it under the paid support plan (hey, that's what we're paying for, right?) with a straight-forward test case

3. A year later, get an email telling you that a new paid upgrade is out and could you pay another $800 to have the privilege of testing whether the problem is fixed?

Very frustrating that they didn't share the actual working solution.

The most obvious would be to line the interior of the firing chamber with metal spikes or some sort of texture to increase the surface area so you have more water spray in direct contact with the hot surface at once. Also, increasing the pressure of the spray so more of it gets to the sides before the steam starts building and insulates it. It's clear the injectors need to be running at a fairly high pressure if you're going to be vaporizing half a cup of water in a few thousandths of a second.

To start the conversation, I think we should immediately ask ourselves the following:

1) Given the performance observed, what sort of power generation technology could or could not be inside of these craft?

2) Is it even possible to build a 30ft - 40ft physical craft that can endure g-forces in the 10,000's? If not, does this force us to conclude it is some sort of warp drive and the craft isn't actually experiencing the forces the performance data would indicate?

I think that logical reasoning along these lines by experts might yield un-escapable conclusions that could inform us how they might work and how they can't possibly work, a start towards what we need to learn and might ignore along the way.
