I know you didn't ask for suggestions, but here's mine: the one thing I care about a CRM doing really well is pipeline / funnel management, i.e, the ability to define a set of stages that a contact goes through to close a deal or reach some other desired result and track contacts as they move through the pipeline(s).

For example: unqualified lead -> qualified lead -> responded to email -> discussion with sales rep -> made purchase

Being able to organize my contacts in this way and quickly see which contacts are at which stages and easily move them between stages (ideally with an API endpoint) is a super powerful way to drive day to day workflow (and automations like follow up emails, assuming there's an API endpoint for querying).
I believe this is only effectively possible, not fully possible. Inherently, music and the voice will share some of the same frequency samples, since they are discrete. I’m sure you might be able to get a solution that works to the human ear, but I don’t know that it’s possible to perfectly strip out one or the other.

Again you are comparing apples with oranges. Outside of prison, nothing prevents you from attempting suicide. Whether you succeed or not depends mostly on your resolve and how you do it.

In a perfect prison, suicide attempt should be 0%, not because people are happy, but because inmates should have no way to even attempt a suicide.

If at some point a mistake is made and an inmate manages to kill himself, it will be a 1 attempt/completion and going to the conclusion that prisons make it easy to kill yourself does not seem right.
It was good, but everything went up this year. It was extremely easy if you bought the dip last dec.

I’m waiting for another dip... hoping to cash in. Might be waiting a while after this earnings report & fed announcement today.
There’s no such thing as “legal necessity” to allow something. Our law is based on what is not allowed, instead of what is allowed. There’s an increasing drive towards banning more things and that’s fine if they are warranted, but I hope that we never get to the point where there are a set of action that we are _allowed_ to do.
> We see diminishing returns everywhere, and if this is not stopped and we don't manage to drastically increase the efficacy of scientific research we'll effectively flatline at some point.

Most likely there is no way to increase efficacy, because the problems we try to solve become harder and harder as we go. This is why the predictions of singularity are unrealistic, the self improving AI, and constantly increasing number of human researchers will go into merely not flatlining instead of solving everything at once.

The much more likely cause is people who are aging poorly are more likely to retire.

My grandmother retired then experienced sharp mental decline. For a long time I thought her retirement caused the sharp mental decline. But looking back at it after learning about dementia, and talking with other family members she retired because she was experiencing mental decline which was the predecessor to dementia.
A friend of mine did an experiment with his grad students in his Formal Methods class.

I'm pro-choice, and support/donate to Planned Parenthood, but you have to be willfully obtuse to not accept that abortion is a political issue — 40% of the country thinks that it should be illegal.

I also donate to ACLU, but you have to be willfully obtuse to not accept that it predominately backs left-leaning policy viewpoints, and vocally so — again, fundamentally political in nature.
Why would a CIA agent do blackmail against American and western targets? That's not how it works.

If Epstein was killed, it's quite possible he was killed by US counter intelligence.
This isn’t helped with the feminism bandwagon. It’s turner into a power struggle, and lost bearing on what’s right.
It most definitely will lead to bad times!

That being said, it's not like people are out with actual pitchforks. We're talking about people on the internet criticizing Bill Gates' affiliation with Epstein. Gates is still rich, powerful and free from any real repercussions other than a deserved hit to his reputation (and really, barely even that).

Sadly I think we'll never see true justice since those tasked with it seem completely unwilling to do their job in this case.
I think you're being too generous to Twitter's competitors. For example, Facebook was incorrectly computing their video metrics for years, resulting in inflated watch times https://www.wsj.com/articles/facebook-overestimated-key-vide... .
Cocoa in hot water with stevia. I still need something black in the morning. Cocoa does have caffeine, but it's really not that much, even compared to tea.

I'll also have a tea in the middle of the day if I start feeling super dopey. The problem, as far as I can tell, isn't the caffeine, it's the amount in single+closely followed consecutive doses... I guess.

Other than that, Camomile and mint. There are a bunch of other fancy herbal alternatives but, those three are a good enough variety for me.

Well, that only gives me an impression that those Windsor boys were simply useless to anyone else.

You are not unlucky - you are simply coming from a powerful family but otherwise useless, so the only people who active try to be your friends are people who can’t be friends to someone useful.
I created https://ratwires.space (nsfw) a crazy little javascriptless anonymous textboard with text effects that only permits 255 posts to exist at any one time and where replies eventually becomes threads in and of themselves. People often share links to various other small sites there so it's turned out to be great for (re)discovering the undernet.

Most regions on Spain had independent laws up to ~1700. While they belonged to the same Kingdom, they kept some independence. That level of independence was erased after a secession war that started on 1700, and ended with some decrees (Nueva Planta decrees, 1716 for Catalonia) that removed some "furs" and constitutions (not only in Catalonia, but everybody that supported the Hamburg's successor). And this was done using the term "derecho de conquista" (right of conquest).

Since then. I think that the source of conflict is that, for multiple reasons, catalans wanted to be part of a bigger political reality, but in "their" terms. And Spain, as a centralized system, didn't like that, doesn't like that and will not like that. To Spain, Catalonia is a property, why would they let it go? After all, it's their right (of conquest) to keep it.
The early Internet was less crowded and less commercialized. There were often local communities, organized around local BBSes and ISPs. That is what I miss.

Funny how Android users keep saying that. I’m an Android developer by profession, which is why I use an iPhone as my personal phone and would never recommend an Android device even to my worst enemy. I’ve seen how the sausage is made and it isn’t pretty. The best thing you can say about Android is that it’s free, which correctly reflects what it’s worth.
That would depend on your definitions. Reddit is #18 on Alexa's top sites list, and it's arguably nothing but forums.
If I could give all the upvotes I ever had, I would assign them to this post right here. It truly saddens me that this one comment represents the exception to this entire thread rather than the majority. Doesn’t it occur to anyone that Twitter is just like any other big corporation out there and this “principled stand” is nothing more than a corporatist trampling of our basic rights? Twitter ceased to be useful to me years ago but this latest action just affirms to me that they really have no clue what freedom is.
Free speech comes with downsides just like every other thing. The alternative is to censor some things and allow other things, which work fine until more and more things gets banned, sometimes out of good intention. I’m totally onboard with banning hate speech and so on, but we need a very hard line of freedom somewhere that no bans get to cross, to me, this crosses it

If true, they need to be fired. If they experience how terrible the Netflix UI is and refuse to fix it, they're guilty of either gross neglect or sabotage.

I don't understand how so many people can anchor their lives to work. If you do that, when you retire, you've lost your meaning of life. I have a list of things a mile long that I just can't get to because 40 hours a week is already spoken for. Early retirement speeds cognitive decline? Maybe if you sit on the beach and/or watch TV all day long, but that sounds kind of miserable if done for more than a few weeks.

Stock buybacks may be a way to give profits to the people who own the company, but they are also 100% financial engineering considering it has a direct impact on stock price and earnings per share.

Stock buybacks were illegal until 1982, being considered a form of stock manipulation. Even though it's legal now, it's still one of the best forms of stock manipulation.
In this particular example you need hierarchy for on at least two occasions.

1. The xml denotes that the whole thing should be wrapped in a div, and shouldn't just be considered a paragraph. With only lists you can't denote what kind of level you're at, unless you force each level to always carry the same meaning (which makes the format weaker than XML).

2. Setting "bold" to true isn't the same thing as emphasizing the text. Typically 'em' is italic, but more importantly a nested 'em' should no longer be italic. To achieve this with JSON you're forced to combine formatting and structure in a way that CSS was designed to prevent.

But Twitter and most of social media's employees are overwhelming Democrat. Google's Public fillings show 87% donated to the Democratic party, and no one in top leadership donated to the Republicans.

This is such a bogus move, because Twitter knows Trump has out-raised opponents by leaps and bounds, and the only way to cut his message is to stop all political adverts.

Remember, Twitter actively engages in censorship that overtly leans left, so much so that over the past 10 years, PEW research has found a massive, unmistakable tilt to the left in Twitter membership, which was close to 50-50 not too long ago.
As soon as you bring HTML and JS in, projects choke and die. There is just too much goldbricking and fiddling and fussing and yak shaving around possible, and almost none of it is in service of actually making anything. The friction binds the gears up horrifically.

Something like WinForms with SQLite that didn't use Entity Framework would be far better. But really all we want is to get back to VB6 on top of Access. Maybe a few less footguns...
This would be super useful, but only if it is able to design using best-practices and output simple and concise CSS.

The problem with many of these tools is that the output is so convoluted that it couldn't be edited manually.

So is it not better to take the twitter approach here and just say - political advertising = banned?

Take the decision out of what is true / not true out of it and just remove the political advertisements all together.

I'm not really arguing with the article, just commenting on my experience with the undead. Access is a brilliant piece of work for what it enables. I think it's a little unfortunate it isn't better supported, and that more software isn't built like it.
Right, and the thing that you have chosen as the "only" example is probably the most important aspect of the Nordic system, relatively, within European social policy.

> I don't get why Sparta seems to be so fetishized, particularly by people who are not pleasant to be around.

The "fetishization" of Sparta goes back to Thucydides and Xenophon, Athenians who admired the Spartans, and Plutarch, a Roman who admired Sparta.
Back in the dawntimes (aka like 1995/96), you got to all sites by starting at the Yahoo! directory, and browsing to the category that you were interested in, and then going through their list of sites. If you made your own site, getting it listed on Yahoo felt like hitting the big time.
This is the real reason why CEOs are on a never-ending quest to grow even if it's detrimental. They are measured and compensated on share price. And share price is mostly driven by growth prospects. This is the real reason why Apple needs things like 3 camera lenses (just like Gillette needs 3 blades) and thin isn't thin enough. If you're a private company, you can do things like Hacker News and Craigslist where you don't change for the sake of change.

EDIT: to show the impact of growth prospects: Right now, Apple's P/E ratio is 20x with share price of $243. But in 2016, P/E was 11x with share price of $100. That is a 143% increase. If you look at revenues, 2019:$259B compared to 2016:$216B - which is only a 20% increase. Look at the article[0] from 2016, it says stuff like:

Apple shares are tanking this week because of a report in Japan's Nikkei newspaper that Apple plans to slash its output of iPhone 6S and iPhone 6S Plus by 30%.

That comes on the heels of an Accenture report warning that demand for smartphones is waning. People don't believe the newer models are all that much better than what they currently have, so they don't want to pay for an upgrade.

You're also underselling the intersections part, because getting traffic to intermix at intersections is incredibly easy at 20mph. And, what you've conceptually stated (no loss in capacity) has been empirically demonstrated.

Finally, you get vastly different places at 40 mph vs 20mph. At 20, roads are smaller, people can safely exist close to the roadway and even enjoy themselves, and you don't need huge buffer zones for the safety of drivers or people. All these things compound to put people (willingly) in closer proximity to one another, so that, while peak travel speed is lower, traffic throughput stays relatively consistent, and travel times decrease overall because many long trips get replaced with short ones.

The contrarian view is that banning political advertising favors incumbents in elections.

The incumbents are already known. Challengers have to make themselves known, and paid advertising is one of the main ways that is possible.
I've only really done it once, and it wasn't a donation exactly. I was more than happy to pay for the Anki iOS app after coming from the free Android version. Anki is the reason I passed university.
