>Unfortunately one of the side effects of Obamacare is that rates have skyrocketed to the point that many people can't afford it.

Is that really a causal relationship? What I see in the data is annual insurance premiums rising at 3-4X the CPI inflation rate starting in the 1990s and continuing to the present. The ACA was an attempt to address the fallout from this. It may not have been entirely successful in doing that, but it certainly wasn't the cause of the problem.

* Check the McKinsey study and the Commonwealth Fund study for data. In the 3 years prior to the ACA, nationwide premiums averaged a 10% annual increase, in the 3 years after the implementation of the ACA they averaged a 6% annual increase.
> Sure it does. High uncapped taxes strongly incentivize property-owners to support new housing development. Low property taxes, capped to rise slower than inflation (e.g. prop 13), do the opposite.

That has absolutely nothing to do with CEQA.

Maybe have a look at Sentry, so you can surface Javascript errors and messages.
The first piece of advice, "Don't", is the best. "shellcheck myscript.sh" should return a fatal error if the shell script file you're checking exists, and "shellcheck -f myscript.sh" should fix your shell script by removing it.

It is the holy grail, but in current games it’s mostly a high cost effect that offers very little. In many games you pay a huge fps penalty for something you basically need circled in screenshots to notice.

I don’t doubt it will be fantastic once it’s actually usable in the sense that people will choose to enable it. I fear next gen consoles, like current top end PCs, will have settings where you choose 4K/60fps/raytracing and you can enable two of them, or possibly just one. In priority order, raytracing is a distant third of those.

I think they are all moving to it because they know they need to get there eventually, and they need consumers to pay for it all the way.
> Most businesses don't have access to top talent and they know it.

I don't believe it's a matter of finding talent, but a matter of learning it, and you learn it by doing.

The problem is people will only learn skills they need - so if they don't need the skill to be 10x developer, because the management doesn't expect it or doesn't give them the autonomy, then they will not learn it.

And of course, learning something as well goes against short-term expectations of productivity.
>The total revenue generated by MFI is likely to be far, far less than that

Since you are talking about "revenue" and not profits, I can assure you the world sells more than 80M MFi lightning cable per year.

There are absolute number, hundreds of millions, or there are relative numbers. 1%. Just to make a point, AMD only earn a Net Income or 300M this year.

This rampant prescriptivism among us frenchies is really tiring after a while. I blame the Académie. Modern French is botched Middle French which is botched Old French which is botched Vulgar Latin which is botched Classical Latin (this last one is a bit incorrect but you get the idea). "Aujourd'hui"'s ethymology is a proof of that.

I agree that repetition for emphasis is an innovation of modern French though. English for instance would never ever do something like that. That would be completely, entirely, absolutely preposterous. I myself wouldn't stand for it.
The above comment is correct. De Beers bought Lightbox to position synthetic diamonds as for “everyday jewelry” rather than special occasion jewelry such as engagement rings. So it essentially is to help protect diamond price levels and the allure or scarcity.

There was a piece in New Scientist about it this month. A hypothesis was that exposure to foodstuffs on the skin, eg peanut oil based baby products, could cause antibody production when the body hadn't had chance to "recognise" the proteins, or whatever, as food.

I'd say the article was essential reading for new/soon-to-be parents.
Now, but what about updates to the software for those appliances? Or do they only aquire the hardware and write their own software on top of it? How would you even find a bug that you don't know the existence of, that wasn't fixed or overlooked intentionally if you aren't the developer and can't be aware of all the inter-dependencies of the software stack?

General trust is more important here than finding something or not finding something now. Dictatorships are just not trustworthy, and they wont change into non dictatorships with continued support.

The "we didn't find backdoors bs" is a pseudo argument, in reality it's fear of economic retailiation against other industries that sell there.

Html tables are not all comparable to newspaper columns. Newspaper-style columns (where text flows from the from bottom of one column to the top of the next column) can be achieved with the "columns" property in CSS.

But newspaper-style columns are not as useful on the web, since it is really annoying if the columns are longer then the screen and you have to scroll up and down. In that respect the web is very different than newspaper layouts where the dimensions are fixed.

As for <grid>, layout should be specified in CSS rather than through the html element, which is why we have "display: table", "display: grid" etc. in CSS, which should do what you want.

From what I've read, the maintainers don't yet want to discuss when rust-analyzer will be the recommended IDE experience.

As a user, I can say it's pretty good and you should use it today if you're writing Rust code. So to me, it doesn't matter whether the docs recommend it, or if it's distributed by default with the compiler. I just use it and tell everyone I know to use it.

beam is god damn magical. It would be hard to replicate that kind of decentralized monolith without considerably more work with any other technology.

back to french you have the reflective verb "s'[en] foutre" (not to give a shit about [it]), which you use "je m'en fous" = i don't care, "tu t'en fous" = you don't care...

you can acronym "on s'en fout" as osef for a general "no one cares" and then rebuild osef as a verb : "je m'osef", "tu t'osef" etc...
What Matters More for Acceleration: Horsepower or Torque?
Nvidia used to be the less bad option, but AMD's transition to AMDGPU leapfrogged that a long time ago.

They're still focused on their proprietary drivers, and naturally that means that they're way behind on supporting modern kernels. That's an issue if you have other hardware that only had support added recently. Their integration with X11's autoconfig also tends to have.. problems.

Nouveau basically doesn't work for their modern GPUs. My work laptop has a 1660Ti, and X11/Nouveau still can't render anything with it. Wayland/Gnome/Nouveau kinda sorta works, but I'd rather not have to use Wayland if I can avoid it.

Nvidia's support for PRIME is lacking. Their official stance was that you should restart your X11 session every time you wanted to swap. Bumblebee kind of worked, but was very slow and unstable. It looks like they finally implemented support for dynamic PRIME now, but of course they had to name their trigger environment variable something else, so that existing scripts for AMD PRIME wouldn't work.

This article does a great job of articulating the principles of identity which I’ve been teaching to my daughter ever since she’s been old enough to understand what a Twitter account is. Even though social media is banned in our household, I’ve laid out a few ground rules that must remain sacrosanct for the sake of basic safety.

1. Your “real” identity - the one to which your “real” phone number and Social Security number are linked - is for banking, buying a house, trading stocks, paying utility bills, e-commerce, car registration, life insurance, and so on.

2. Never do or say anything online that would reveal your “real” identity in any way. There’s a surprisingly broad spectrum of activities which might reveal your identity. Don’t take selfies next to your (or my) car. Don’t take selfies next to home. Better yet, don’t take selfies at all. Don’t geotag anything. Don’t “check into” places. Don’t mention your first name. Don’t be telling anyone about your real birthday. Build an impenetrable firewall between “the internet” and your “real identity”, and keep it in good repair.

3. All identities other than the “real” one are throwaway. Use a different e-mail address, phone number, and name for each website. Never use the same pseudonym more than once.

4. Don’t tell your real-life friends anything about your “other” identities. Don’t use social media under your “real” identity. This way, the two can never be linked.

5. Don’t be afraid to periodically “pull a _why” on your pseudonymous identities. The forest of “yous” will grow thick and lush, and will need a preventive burn every now and again in order to avoid an uncontrollable conflagration later. Delete what you can; abandon what you can’t. Move on and move up.

6. If you ever feel compelled to make an exception to the rule, come talk to me before you make the decision. Chances are that I’ll be able to hear you out and make a convincing case against breaking rules 1-5.

Ever since I’ve come up with these ground rules, I’ve slowly wound down my own social media presence. I have set up an alter ego under which I’m conducting my open source and other online activities. When asked why I don’t use my “real name” GitHub for anything but work, I say that this is my way of keeping things separate for the sake of sanity and safety. People nod their understanding, but they don’t really get it, and that’s okay. They can’t possibly get to know every side of me.

Making your own website today is still possible, but the chances of people actually reading your content is really low unless you invest a lot of time into SEO. A large part of the browsing population never leaves their walled garden and only reads what's posted there. So unless you get crossposted into their filterbubble, your content is just invisible.

> I agree that the Bourne Shell in particular is a pretty suboptimal language, and I think we can probably do a lot better. [...] But it's easy to do worse.

I found this startlingly true when having to write nontrivial scripts using the classic Windows cmd.exe language (what's its actual name? Batch?). Bourne Shell's feature set, archaic as it is, is so much more conceptually unified. Exactly as you say, it's sobering to keep in mind that things can be a LOT worse.
Not really. A thin client is just another way to add a seat to a multiuser machine. Thin clients are just fine for a lot of real work (programming, office tasks). But for home use you need clean 1080p fullscreen video playback and none of the traditional thin clients can handle that.

I did. The springs wearing out very much means bad contact at the contact points, we do agree there. However the receiver end with gold plated contacts points do also wear out. I’ve yet to see anything pointing towards springs wearing out before the gold plated areas (that is being worn by friction each insertion/removal) do.

I’ve got a Lightning cable with worn out gold plated contact points, the springs in the phone are perfectly fine.

My point being that without some reliable statistics pointing to springs being way more susceptible to wear than gold plated contact points, it doesn’t make any difference.

(FWIW: I currently work with factory equipment for PCB production testing and bad contact due to oxidation and wear is a much bigger issue than springs going bad, but that’s just my experience.)

I just released the landing page for my new project, I called it Skedlo!

It is a post automation and growth tool for Twitter which is focused on giving users additional insights about which of their tweets are doing better than others. Tweets analysis is something that other competitors just don't do properly, hence why I started this project in the first place.

I am still actively working on it, but I realized that in order to start marketing your platform you need a landing page even before having the underlying service up and running.

I wasn't surprised to find looms. My point is that the descriptions on the exhibits were confusing, because at first I interpreted them as saying "steam-powered crafts were first invented in Lyon in 1782" or whatever.

Again, you need to show specifically that a uniform charger is less beneficial to consumers than letting Apple keep their proprietary patent-protected charger.

I want my iPhone and my Android phone and my tablet and my notebook to share the same charging port. I would definitely buy an iPhone with USB-C if the market would offer one to me. However, the market won't give that to me. Even if 90% of iPhone buyers would prefer USB-C over Lightning, Apple would not give it to us, because it is beneficial for their business to build their own walled garden.

I don't know if forcing Apple to agree with other vendors is a net benefit for all consumers or not. However, as you seem to have a very strong opinion on why that would be detrimental to consumers, you need to show where consumers would be negatively affected, specifically for charging ports.

This has nothing to do with what one thinks about governments in general.

Yes: JS widgets have a usability impact and especially accessibility, which is a legal requirement in much of the world.
