> "self-evident" is inappropriate because it presumes perspective of the reader

I don't think that is the reason for it being inappropriate. In my opinion, such phrases are a result intellectual laziness, of which I am also guilty at times.
I live in America, too, and it sucks, from a healthcare perspective. I've seen about 6-7 therapists in my life, and I would see two of them again, and one of those I definitely can't afford to. I think you should try it once and "normalize" the act to yourself. Give yourself 3-4 sessions with someone and if it feels weird, cancel or switch. It can be expensive, but you should really try it, because it can be highly effective for many people. I haven't seen a therapist in about a year, and don't have healthcare, but I would if it were easier and more affordable.

Some advertising works on me, and might be self-selecting.

The "thing x added to cart" on amazon, showing lots of similar things, and related things. At that point, I have capitulated on many occasions.

It's like giving a coupon for a drink in the pizza waiting area. (Or in some cases, showing me there's a better pizza)
It's definitely weasel words. Open Source has a definition. The source may be publicly viewable, but that isn't "open". It's still closed, and it being viewable is actively harmful, as it'll lead to copyright violations sneaking into other projects.
in such cases, labor is being leveraged, not obviated. the labor shifts to those who build, monitor, and maintain the machines doing the work that used to be done directly by laborers. capital is the accumulation of the fruits of our (leveraged) labor. that we privilege capital is why we’re in a tight spot, rather than labor not being the basis of value.

the miracle is that we can build more while doing less, but nothing gets built if we do nothing at all (e.g., wealth concentration).
Sugarscape is probably what you want.
First, I can tell that you've never experienced poverty in your life because saying it's 'as simple as that' ignores the times when poor people need to purchase something right away. They deposit a check into their account, then go shopping because that money SHOULD BE IN THEIR ACCOUNT and they desperately need things like food or basic amenities. Then they get pinged with overdraft fees because the bank decided not to cash that check right away, instead delaying it so they can collect overdraft fees.

As for your second point, calling 'profit and productivity irrelevant' is ridiculously flippant because profit and productivity doesn't come from the void. It's generated by people. So let me illustrate:

Person A is 'creating' $1000/year in value.

Person B is 'short' $300/year in order to survive.

Person A employs Person B. The reason why Person B is short of funds is because Person A is earning their value from Person B and not properly distributing that wealth down through labor to Person B. Ergo, the situation isn't some sort of 'wealth transfer', it's the result of someone not being fairly compensated for their work.

What you're calling 'wealth transfer' is the result of money accumulating towards the top, which results in the wealthy having to either pay more to support the bottom percent or let them die. Software engineers generate many more times their income in value to the companies that employ them. Which means money floats to the top as companies try to depress wages to maximize profit margins.
I'll add that I think your comment was interesting which is part of why I commented on it. My comment was meant to be generic and the only reason I commented here was that I saw this thread was popular and your comment was near the top. So it is not a critique of the information and it was a bit unfair to call you out. I am hoping others consider not using those phrases so often. I've noticed very smart people use it a lot, probably because these things are indeed trivial to them. But it does not help anyone understand their arguments. Many times just removing the statement makes the argument more understandable as there is less noise.
You are a crackpot indeed, sorry.
One thing that has been frustrating with the OpenPGP setup with the Yubikey has been the inability to re-add the stub key entries after they are deleted from the host. I do edit-card, unlock and fetch but the entry doesn't show, rendering it useless in `gpg`.
I was so ripped off on binary options while trying to get my life savings multiplied. I was confused on what I could do to get my money back because I already read online that going to a lawyer or any chargeback company wouldn't help. After so many research and help requests from friends, I later after a while luckily bumped into a website "OXPAHAT.ORG" in the process of my online research, I went through the website and saw they help recover funds from binary options scam, cryptocurrency scam, etc. I took the risk and contacted the website's admin, I explained the whole situation to him, how the investment went and the binary options brokers I dealt with. He assured me that I would get my money back but it would take just little time. He requested for all the details about the brokers that scammed me and also about the amount I invested, I provided all and kept hoping on God. Luckily for me after some time, he was able to recover nearly 85% of my lost funds into my local bank account I provided to him, I was highly amazed because I felt all was lost already. I advise you visit the website "WWW.OXPAHAT.ORG" now also if you need to recover your funds from any scam broker.
All of them. I imagine if you’re a high value target that can be blackmailed, some intelligence service knows all about you.

That's just overly complicated centralization.

Decentralization is allowing peers to find and negotiate their own connections and demoting your servers to a very powerful peer.
You're right. I just noticed that they had the same title.
Why is this surprising? Wealth provides the means to acquire more wealth, so of course any initial inequality will tend to intensify without some mechanism to redistribute wealth among those with less wealth.
That seems like a giant strawman to me. What "enlightened campus philosphers" (or "the wise", if those people are different) specifically are you arguing with? Does it include any actual academic economists? I mean, you're talking about stuff that sounds specific, but for the life of me I can't see exactly what opinions you're arguing against.

Inequality isn't magic. It goes up and down in response to both economic cycles and public policy. It's been set all all sorts of levels over history, and right now is at a post-industrial zenith and getting higher rapidly. And some of us think that's bad, for reasons of simple fairness.

And lots of actual academics agree with this, and have pretty solid numerate arguments that might convince you if you were willing to read them.
This also ignores things like Hasura which does global optimization by converted GraphQL into a single SQL query.

This isn't a simple supply and demand situation, zoning issue, or tax issue. If we built 1 million homes in California, only a small percentage of those homes would be deemed "affordable housing" and what would have to control that affordability? We don't want to have to subsidize, we need broader laws governing home values tied into median income for any given area. All banks scrutinze lending based off 35% Debt to Income ratio's, why not scrutinize appraised values of homes and include consideration for median income in all evaluations?
FWIW, a few months ago they sent someone to my listing in person. They offered me $500 to make the changes they suggested.
> It’s mostly a thing in certain Protestant sects

Catholics have a lot of grey area too (https://www.catholic.com/tract/adam-eve-and-evolution), they struggle with the random mutation and natural selection aspects that form the basis of evolutionary theory:

> However, it says that, if they did develop, then they did so under the impetus and guidance of God

There is also the literal adam and eve:

> In this regard, Pope Pius XII stated: “When, however, there is question of another conjectural opinion, namely polygenism, the children of the Church by no means enjoy such liberty. For the faithful cannot embrace that opinion which maintains either that after Adam there existed on this earth true men who did not take their origin through natural generation from him as from the first parents of all, or that Adam represents a certain number of first parents. Now, it is in no way apparent how such an opinion can be reconciled that which the sources of revealed truth and the documents of the teaching authority of the Church proposed with regard to original sin which proceeds from a sin actually committed by an individual Adam in which through generation is passed onto all and is in everyone as his own”

Fortunately souls don't exist, so at least that doesn't conflict with the bible.
That's a fair description of the past too.
Work 60 hours a week if you must, but I don't see the point of high availability.

"You can look it up" is doubly annoying because it shifts the burden of defending a source from he who references it to he who questions it. If one wants to use evidence to support his argument, he alone is responsible for keeping a copy of the source for reference.

Maybe. But, that doesn't address the parent comment's meaning. I interpret it as saying that both spying and non-spying foreign tech workers might be affected by the same brush tar.

"Software engineers on an on-call rotation...data analysts, maybe even some external contractors"

These groups usually get access through a bastion that anonymizes data and logs access. I remember that as a SWE at Google, I could run aggregated & anonymized statistics across query logs, but some info (eg. IPs, user logins) had been scrubbed before any of my code could get access to it, and for things that were more personal (eg. your GMail login) you could only get access to your own account.

There's nothing you can do about SREs who have root access on the box or the SWEs who need to implement & maintain the bastion servers, but that's presumably a more restricted, vetted, and trusted group.
How many people here have purchased something solely because they saw an advertisement for it, or how many people do you know who have done that?

I can't recall myself ever seeing an ad for something I did not already know of and then spending money on it.

Whenever I have found something that I didn't already know and then purchased it, it has been because of word-of-mouth (including online comments), reviews or recommendations/features on digital stores like Steam, GOG, App Store etc.
Interesting video. I'm sad there was no answer. How do you improve the fast-food milkshake in this scenario?
> British idiomatic spellings

Let's get this straight. There's "American English" used in the US and Canada. And then there English, where "colour" is spelled with a "U", and that's used in lot more countries, and natively spoken by more people than American English.

I think the message of this article is a good one, perhaps not always applicable depending (of course) on the individual scenario and circumstances, but a worthwhile message nonetheless. I think a large part of whether or not it applies is the risk assessment. If the risk is extremely great should failure occur and there are not major time constraints, preparation should be careful and considered. As the idiom goes, "Fortune favors the prepared".

Many, like myself, have been struck by this particular paralysis of analysis, stuck in a studious stupefaction of research and preparation, in part due to fear of failure and in part due to never feeling prepared enough. My particular case is of pursuing the Red Hat Certified System Administrator certification. I have yet to take the exam, but have put in a fair bit of time of study with books and with online resources (some of which were paid subscriptions, like LinuxAcademy). Of course, the stakes aren't extremely high - if I were to fail, I'd be out $400. Not a huge amount of money but not small change either. Needless to say, I still want to get the certification but have yet to motivate myself to commit to it. Suffice it to say, I'm one of those people that thrives and prospers under deadlines, whether said deadlines are artificial or are a true limitation on my window of preparation.
Wow, good job on the weight loss though. I've had this for years too but it's gotten worse. Or I've also become somewhat lactose intolerant. I always feel great when fasting (which I do regularly for weight reasons) but within 30 minutes of breaker ng the fast I'm burping again. Even fasting for like a week didn't seem to starve them at all.

I saw an article somewhere bthat said xifaxan should be taken for six weeks! So I'll probably try that next.

I don't mean to nitpick, because any reductive statement ("just"), is _just_ wrong.

but there are many people who would and do not use protection anyway. And taking PrEP means that's a less risky option than otherwise.
"fetch" fetches from the URL you set in the card/Yubikey. If you put the public key on an HTTP server and put the URL in the Yubikey (with the "url" command after enabling "admin" commands), you can fetch it with "fetch".

Getting the public key out from an OpenPGP smartcard otherwise is not supported by the protocol it uses. That is frustrating that it wasn't included in the procotol, but I've gotten over it.

After you've imported the public key, getting the private key stubs is a matter of checking the status of the card with `gpg --card-status`. The stubs are added then.

If you have another machine that has the public key, you can export it with `gpg --export -a $key_identity`, and import it with `gpg --import < $exported_public_key_file`.

Otherwise, if you don't hold another copy of the public key, the only option left might be to make a new keypair and be careful to not lose all copies of the public key again.

Also, if you backup the private key, you can get the public key from it by importing it somewhere.
It is pretty damn hard to reliably operate a service that you can’t introspect or debug in any way. The real world is more creative than you; things will happen in production that you didn’t think of in your synthetic test fixtures.

You're right, they could, but they don't seem to be, and it would be easily discovered (since anybody can run the same software on their system and compare the results for their specific CPU), and probably make quite a splash in the tech media.
That happens all the time in real life.

The whole thing reminds me about the disputed articles, "Are U.S. Railroad Gauges Based on Roman Chariots?" and by extension the Space Shuttle was limited by the width of two horses walking side-by-side. I don't think software is all that different than other standards like switching to the metric system, or Southern California switching their power standard from 50hz in 1948 to match 60hz (Japan never unified their power). It's a huge investment and a lot of it is political appetite for adopting the change.

It seems pretty obvious that the average person doesn't grok/like using folders (everything goes on the desktop). I was excited when Microsoft and Apple seemed experimental in the late 90's early 2000's with WinFS and Smart Folders. That kind of fizzled out. I think the reliability prevents adoption and it's a bit of a chicken and the egg with architecture vs presentation. Gmail supporting tags instead of folders seemed to drive everyone nuts for awhile (it still seems to come up when exposing it to other clients).

(2) Advertising Expenditure by Company vs. ROA

I hypothesize you'll see a rapidly decreasing return on advertising due to size, and would love to be proven wrong.

"Chargers are something new and unique and need to be giant gas-station like things"

Well, nobody is comparing a charger to a gas station. More like a gas pump. And I don't understand your tone of "oh, electricity is everywhere, you can basically get it for free". It costs what it costs. When almost nobody has an electric car, public chargers can be installed and subsidized as a gimmick. At some point, if people actually use them, "free" will vanish in a puff of logic.

Also, you know, I have seen public chargers in parking lots that cost money, and you know what was missing that gas stations always have? A sign with the price! I guess there are no specific regulations or something, but as far as I'm concerned if you can't see the price up front (and probably have to agree to a click-wrap list of terms) I think nobody is serious.

Please back this up and define the terms used.

As in, define "tech companies" (name specific companies that do this and why you think that can be generalized to the entire industry) and define "careless" (it's a relative term so please say if it's less or more careless of other examples of organizations that manage similarly large amounts of data but that aren't "tech companies").

Because to me the opposite seems true. It's the non-tech companies (if you equate that to FAANG) that manage large amounts of data that tend to have a lot more data leaks (internal or external) than the tech companies.
> It seems like the same people who complain about a lack of employer care & "greedy corporations" are also the same people counseling "always be interviewing" and the only priority is #1.

Did you consider that perhaps the latter is caused by the former? When executives and managers, in the main, are rewarded for "optimizing" at the expense of humans, those humans are eventually going to push back.

I see it as the same as the art school graduates who really, really want to make a living out of making art and finding in the real world a really, really small minority of artists can live off the art they produce.

Then they get a job teaching art to the next generation of people who really, really want to live off of making art.
It sounds like you saying that it would be more fair to make them leave by pricing them out so other people can buy their homes.
Eh, all cars meet minimum safety standards and will get you to and from wherever you want to go, but they aren't equivalent. Just like I could probably go to the supermarket and buy any random item from the butchery department and cook it and it would stop me from being hungry for the night but I definitely wouldn't say that food items from the butchery department only differ in "branding, positioning, marketing" though. Likewise those are not the only things that matter in the car market.
